[OOC] Pokemon: New World

@Zarkun @Lugubrious Would it be ok if Cici met them? I think she'd get along really well with Tommy.

@LuckyBlackCat

Should be fine.

@LuckyBlackCat

Fine with me.

[Balthazar007]

This is a great RP, but unfortunately work and college has put me behind so I'll be dropping out. Best of luck.

@czechmate46

No worries. If you want to bring your character back next month, she'll still be here. Only one day in the RP will have passed.

@balthazar Oh, also question: how do battles with wild pokemon work? We can't grind, but we can still battle them though right? 'Cuz it's awkward if we can't battle wild pokemon, but awkward if we fight them but don't get experience as well haha

Also is it possible to have two leaders for one organization instead of one? Or is it just one haha

@Dusksong

Battling wild Pokemon is not a focus in this RP. You are free to battle wild Pokemon in your IC posts. But these posts will only award you one point each.

Organization's can have more than one leader, sure. You will get one free character that starts off at skilled trainer if you like. Then you can bring in a character that you have built up from scratch to be a co-leader or to take over the organization.

To tie your two interests together, you can always create an organization that focuses on battling wild Pokemon... for whatever reason. Through this everyone in the organization can earn extra trainer points when they battle a wild Pokemon.

Thanks!

Hi you two!

I just got done reading your most recent posts. I know that the OOC post contains lots of content and that it's pretty easy to over look things.

Lugubrious, you caught a "Stunky". This is a dual type Pokemon, Poison and Dark. Central city is not home to either one of these types, never the less both at the same time.

Dusksong. I know that you are writing content at a fast pace and I appreciate that. Unfortunately, it seems as though you just pushed your character into the next day. It may be confusing at first, but this RP has some set time standards. You can change the time of day within your posts, but you cannot move on to a new day completely. When the next month IRL gets here, we will move this whole RP forward to the next day. In other words, faster posters must concentrate on a stronger detailed account of their day. Only seven more IRL days before we move on to tomorrow!

I edited both of your "Official Stats" to include any progress that I could, but I would appreciate if you both reworked your latest posts before moving on.

Thanks!

@Balthazar007 Ohh I was asking about whether I could co-pres a organization with another rp-er haha

[Balthazar007]

@Dusksong

That can be done, but there will be some logistics that need to be worked on. We'll cross that bridge when we get there.

[Typical]

@Balthazar007 Ahhh just saw your post about the day/month stuff
Gah I thought you meant that we couldn't progress months unless a irl month passed, not that we couldn't progress days. But I guess this makes more sense--I'll go back and change it haha. Somehow, Leisy will cover distance in olympic speed and venture far and wide before the day is over ._.

@Dusksong

Haha! You could do that if you can find a way to justify it. I suggest going into more detailed descriptions of your surroundings and motivations to create some depth to your character. Maybe that's just me!

Thanks!

@Balthazar007

I see. I totally missed that types section. Drat...personally I think that it would make a lot more of to find a Stunky in a meadow given that skunks are pretty mundane, but rules are rules, so I'll find something else. I must confess though that I'm completely unexcited for the only thing that would really replace it.

For future reference, I am pretty much comprehensibly knowledgeable about Pokemon typing. This time I mistakenly worked under the understanding that there were just guidelines for Pokemon availability and not hard restrictions. For that I apologize.

Instead of a Stunky, Olivie will have a Bidoof.

[Typical]

@Lugubrious ... I feel bad, but at the same time, bidoof is pretty original?? TM slave in-game... why don't you get her a meowth instead? Wouldn't a female persian be right up her alley?

[Balthazar007]

@Dusksong@Lugubrious

I believe that Lugubrious was going for a typically unappealing, underappreciated Pokemon to be Olivie's starter.

@Balthazar007

You are correct. That was a big part of it, though in addition, I personally like the Stunky line.

[Typical]

@lugubrious@balthazar007 Yeah, I figured, but I personally liked the stunky line in game as well (firethrower? Count me in!). There have to be more options than bidoof right? ('cuz... bidoof)

but originality points nonetheless haha

[Typical]

@lugubriousOh. Wait, I just realized that we can only catch pokemon that evolve twice right now, and Bidoof... doesn't ._.
@Balthazar007 These rules... you wanna keep with them?

[Lugubrious]

@Dusksong

I missed that as well. If that's the case, then I'm changing it to Lillipup when I feel like it.

[Typical]

@lugubrious Can I suggest Slakoth or is that too much as well?

[Lugubrious]

Slakoth is the only part of the Slakoth line that I like, and I don't think one could really have the kind of fighting spirit I'm assigning to Olivie's first Pokemon.

Yo @Balthazar007, given that we're down to four player characters (Leisy, Cici, Olivie, Tommy) may if I 'advertise' this RP to some of the others I'm in, in hopes that we might get more players?

[Balthazar007]

@Dusksong@Lugubrious

You are not limited to Pokémon that only evolve twice. You may capture Pokémon that only evolve once. It's just that the second form of these single evolution Pokémon are considered Top tier. There base form is considered bottom tier. They have no middle tier.

And yes. Advertise away!

Thanks!

[LuckyBlackCat]

@Balthazar007 In that case, is it ok if Cici gets a Swablu while still in Central? Because Altaria is exactly the kind of Pokemon she'd want.

[Typical]

@luckyblackcat you don't mind if my character also gets a swablu somewhere down the line too, do you 0_0
