[OOC] Pokémon: Start

[Joshua Tamashii]

@Eklispe We're on the same route. Would you be up for Amelia and Dawkin meeting each other and possibly traveling a bit?

[Eklispe]

I'm amiable to that, as soon as I complete the tricky task of disengaging from this Sawsbuck.

@Eklispe

Could always run into her while running from the angry deer

[Eklispe]

Sounds workable, I'm gonna be a bit busy for the next three days as my finals finish though so I won't get around to anything until then.

@Pikmin Eye I noticed something dumb. I know how the cavern should look and what's in it, but I hadn't properly drawn it. Last post, I made a PNG file to post to the net... but forgot to save the actual files I was working with. So I had to do it again. And comparing... this isn't near as good. I'll be redoing it again, it seems. XD

Anyways. You have an option of finding a Heatmor closer to your level if you wish. Or just head on, that works too. Heh.

@Rune_Alchemist Alright. Now let's see. Do you have something in mind to do?

[Rune_Alchemist]

@PlatinumSkink

Heh

I do indeed~

I shall have the post up in the next 2-3 days.

[Joshua Tamashii]

@Eklispe mentioned you in last post but screwed up the spelling of your name. So, heads up.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pikmin Eye Nicely posted. A charm to a dark insect-and-anteater infested underground devoid of people, eh. Heh. I can believe it. Alright, I see your strategy. Let's see what I make of it.

@Joshua Tamashii Nicely posted. Heh, does make me happy to see Amelia amazed at things. Now, then. Given your discussion, I'll wait until Eklispe has posted before I post for you, and then I'll see what I can do. Heh.

[Rune_Alchemist]

@PlatinumSkink

And there we go, Claire's master strategy has been revealed.

Lets see how well this works~

I don't expect it to work as well as Claire thinks it's going too.

[Eklispe]

Hypothetically if Dawkin gains enough ground he could make it to Amelia but I'll figure I'll let GM handle that.

[Pirouette]

Whew. With finals done, I can finally relax and keep up.

@Joshua Tamashii @Eklispe

Oh yea! Erika and crew are also on the same route!

@Pirouette

More possible people to meet then

[PlatinumSkink]

I'll see if I can get a post up tomorrow. Been a bit occupied.

Edit: Fairly confident I can't. ... +2 days due to the events of tomorrow.

[PlatinumSkink]

Alright, this is kind of an excellent opportunity for me to discuss what I do with moves that are supposedly learned on Level 1 by fully grown Pokémon. Firstly, if you look here.

Durant supposedly knows Guillotine, Iron Defense, Metal Sound, Vice Grip and Sand Attack, all on Level 1. However, I will be cutting all moves that come before the final four. In this case, it’d mean Guillotine is cut. In case of Ampharos, had it been an Ampharos from level 1, it’d mean all moves above Tackle are cut. Quite reasonably, might I add. However, in addition, I will also cut all moves the Pokémon then naturally learns by leveling up, which in Durant’s case is Iron Defence and Metal Sound at 56 and 66, meaning our level 8 Durant here is left with Vice Grip, Sand Attack and Fury Cutter. Quite reasonable, I believe. If you find a Pokémon for which this isn’t reasonable on, bring it to my attention and I may reconsider. Heh.

@Pikmin Eye Sorry it took a while. Anyways, here.

@Joshua Tamashii@Eklispe Yeah, you can meet up now, if you feel like it. With whatever excuse you want to use, heh.
Nicely posted, but unfortunately ghosts are the only Pokémon you have a natural connection to. XD

@Pirouette You're also free to get into that mix if you want to. I'll leave it to you guys to figure that out. But, otherwise, Pikachu-hunting is a go. Nicely posted.

@Rune_Alchemist Nicely posted, I had to consider there for a bit.
Edit: ... Wait. I changed my mind. He probably shouldn't be able to use it when he didn't even see it being used. Hah.

Okay, there. I initially had Stefan using Pursuit, accuracy-bypassing way of automatically catching up to Pokémon using moves specifically meant to get away (like Teleport), but then I decided that he wouldn't be able to do that if he didn't see her using Teleport. I still intend Pursuit to work like that, but I will say the Pokémon needs to be aware that the move is being used. Hah.

My apologies if any later writing is short or insufficient in quality. I was pressed for time. Moving on.

[Joshua Tamashii]

@PlatinumSkink hey, you never know. Maybe some will approach her while she's drawing, since she's rather peaceful and they might be curious. Same could apply to the Oddish and whatever other Pokemon there are on the route.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Joshua Tamashii Heh. Perhaps. The Pokédex does note that Oddish is apparently nocturnal, and this isn't night, is it? It's just that you see them all over anyway, haha.

@Pikmin Eye Alright, nicely posted. left, eh. Alright. Then you'll be seeing that, huh. Okay, that'll be fun. Maybe. Heh. Sprout laughing at you is amusing. Anyways. Yupp.

[Rune_Alchemist]

Well shit I said I was going to post today but I got side tracked.

Whoops~

i'll see if I can get one up later tonight, if not tomorrow for sure.

EDIT:
Alrighty, a posty from me. A bit small, but I'm a little on the tired side.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Rune_Alchemist Nicely posted. I'll see what I write now.

[@All] Am preoccupied by Christmas. We'll see when I get back into the swing of things.

[Joshua Tamashii]

@Eklispe I assume holidays have kept, and possibly still are, ya busy but I await your post when you get the chance.

[Eklispe]

Aye that's the half of it. the other half is i'm really not sure what I want to write between Dawkin and his new friend and getting an interaction going with your character, sorry about that.
