[OOC] Pokemon: New World

[Balthazar007]

Still open?

@Iatos

We are indeed still open. Just PM me a character sheet for your first trainer so that I can review it. If it's all good, I'll approve it and you can post it in the 'Characters' section. Then you can begin to post IC.

@Balthazar007oh xD

[Balthazar007]

Still open?

@Iatos

In this RP, you are not supposed to start off with a Pokemon. You are only supposed to start off with a Pokeball and your Pokedex. I'm afraid to say this, but you shouldn't start off with that Sneasel. Especially since all the other users, including myself, started out with zero Pokemon.

There are many people here that have accumulated enough creation points to make a place that has Ice and Dark type Pokemon. Maybe you should talk to one of them. I suggest talking to @Dusksong because he has creation points abound. Then you can start your character off in that location, making it easier to catch that Sneasel. OR you can join an organization and build up your own Creation Points quickly in order to custom build your character's home town.

Other than that, your character sheet is fantastic.

Small Update:

I have lowered the barrier to entry for League Prime. Now you don't have to battle another user as a requirement. You can simply have a battle with a wild Pokemon. I esspecially recomend this organization for Olivie, @Lugubrious. She seems to like battling quite a lot. Might as well earn extra points from it!

Thanks!

@Balthazar007

Ah, that's neat. I'll consider it.

[@latos] I'd be more than willing to work with you to make a location if you'd like. Was saving my points up for when missions got released in full or to make a location with dragon Pokemon. However, I have more than enough points to make two locations, so if you'd like just bump me a pm? Or contact me over discord haha

@Dusksong

You might have to resend this. The first letter in his user name is actually an "I" as in "Inside". The font of this site confused me as well. I made the same mistake. He won't get a notification if you just edit the post though.

[Typical]

Haha I definitely did! Thanks @balthazar007!

@Iatos mk did you get that?

[Zarkun]

Just a heads up that my posting will be further delayed because I'm getting surgery done today.

@Zarkun

Good luck with surgery. Have no worries. Your character will be waiting for you. I suggest you PM @LuckyBlackCat though to see if she would rather keep moving forward or wait for you.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@Zarkun I'm happy to wait. Hope you're doing better soon.

@Dusksong @LuckyBlackCat @Zarkun @Lugubrious @Eklispe @KiritoAsuna @Iatos

Okay everyone,

I have finished formatting the opening OOC post. There are a few things that I'm thinking about adding before the 24th, but otherwise, it's ready to roll. Do any of you see grammatical mistakes or have suggestions that might improve the manual? Remember, this will be the first thing that people are supposed to look at when considering to join our RP. If you can think of anything that might make it better, let me know.

As it stands, from the 24 to the end of the month, we will be advertising this RP. The goal is to recruit five more active users; it's okay if we only get a few; there is always next month (i.e. In-Character day). Who knows? We may even exceed our goal by a few people!

Thanks everyone!

@Balthazar007 So, seeing as the map is expanding... Contests. How are they going to work? I can imagine a contest hall in a place like Feyhollow, and I have an idea for a coordinator character.

@Dusksong @Iatos Ooh, looking forward to seeing a place with Dark and Ice types...

@LuckyBlackCat

I had some ideas on contests earlier, but it's been on the back burner for so long I honestly forgot how I wanted to go about it. Now that the rest of the RP has formed up though, it is time to revisit the subject. Give me a couple days to think about this.

Thank You!

[LuckyBlackCat]

@Balthazar007 Is it alright if I create my character? It would be a while until she got into a contest anyway... she'd kind of need some Pokemon first.

@LuckyBlackCat

Yes. Go ahead. I'll approve it as soon as I can, tonight before sleep, or tomorrow after work.

[Balthazar007]

@Dusksong

In your latest post. You seem to be under the understanding that you can only carry 6 Pokeballs with you. Nowhere in this RP do I enforce this classic standard.

I think that 12 should be the number in this RP, not 6. After 12, Pokemon that you keep on you will count toward your inventory. I will edit this into the opening OOC tomorrow before work.

[Typical]

@balthazar007 I actually was aware that you weren't enforcing a number in this RP, but I wanted to keep some of the game traditions going... Maybe later she'll retrieve it? Or is this completely unrealistic right now haha

[Balthazar007]

Tonight or tomorrow, I am also going to create a section to the opening OOC that addresses readers, not just writers or role-players of this RP.

My reasoning behind this is that I spoke with a friend at work that would like to read this RP, but she doesn't write.

If this site can attract more readers than writers, this site will explode! Let's be honest, how many people know about this site that are not writers? When you write, you expect to have readers.

Give me till tomorrow. You will all see what I mean.

@Balthazar007

Just want to remind you that this is an RPing site, meaning that while readers are nice, it's mainly meant for the writers.
