[OOC] Pokemon Gijinka [Always Accepting!]

[TalijaKey]

@Holy Soldier Thanks for the levels, I updated Rasa profile with them.

---

Yay the regrouping will be a fun affair. Cannot wait to be again involved with the actual plot.

So after the Thore situation is dealt with.
Rasa will go to the pokecenter and then onwards to the forest and be in front of her tent that she left the previous night because of Noibat.
Thats the overview plan.

[@hrIatos]
* How much stamina does Thore have? He fought and git hit a few times. And He did previously show signs of tiredness before Rasa called him back into a pokeball. So how long till he drop tired? Could we wait his rage out I am basically asking?

*Another option is if Grazia decided to just watch the show, Rasa next action most likely would be a hug-snuggle-pet attack, even if she gets bitten again.

The problem with that is... If it backfires and Thore still rejects Rasa and wants to get away from "prison and warden". Rasa will assume what he needs is to be away from her and maybe find another trainer. Not be trained by her. Ergo giving Thore his pokeball and leave, so she wouldnt cause him any more pain.
In that case scenario it will be up to Thore to find a reason to go back to the team...

@Iatos Messed the tag up. Look up.

[Saltwater Thief]

@Holy Soldier there never was any fear of falling behind, at least not from me. I just had an idea cross my mind and asked about it to see if it would be worth the time to do. More out of curiosity than anything else really.

[Iatos]

@TalijaKey *Iatos uses Look Up*

He's tired that's for sure, He's not high level either so I'd say he's at 30% or something, but Pushing it by now. He can probably take at least 4 Ineffective scratches thought or about 2 more hits from effective moves.

He can probably dish out quite a Few bites thought out of Desperation.

But yes its fully possible to wait him out, or for Rasa to physically hold him down until he stop struggling and biting.

Not sure how Much Stamina Meintja have, if she's capable of waiting out his bite attacks however.

So yeah.

Hey, I've spent last night and a chunk of this morning reading through the thread, and was wondering if there was space for any more players. I've got a hankering to make a Pokemon Gijinka of some sort of other, and I'm enjoying one of the other games that @Holy Soldier is running, and Pokemon is one of those guilty pleasures I don't really get to indulge in much.

I did have two questions though! Just two! Well, two and a bit.

1) Does the game need more Pokemon? And, if there's anyone going "golly, I wish there was (INSERT POKEMON HERE) for my Trainer to have...", what would that be? While I've got way too many some ideas, I figure it'd be most helpful to see whether my interest aligns with anyone else's.

2) If there is space for more people, when would be best to get involved? I don't need to get started right this instant, and can surely spend any extra time required to find the right moment to hop in carefully crafting my character submission.

If there's no space free, I shall continue to quietly lurk, bide my time and keep reading along with your adventures.

[TalijaKey]

@Hylozoist Hello~ Welcome and happy to have you.

To answer your most important question there is room for more players. We are always in need of pokemon.

Which type of pokemon do we need? Its a pretty free choice, and it depends on the trainers in this game. Ergo Trainers are: @Bright_Ops(has 2 pokemon)@Raijinslayer(has 3 pokemon + 2npc)@Saltwater Thief(has 2 pokemon) and Me(has 3 pokemon).
My opinion on this is the game needs a water type for all those fire and the ground types that are around. Plus surf. Plus Rasa needs a swimming buddy even if that isnt her own pokemon. XP Again all types are great.

Now for when it is best to get involved?
At the moment there is a bit of a problem as they are two groups. One is on day one, and a few are on day two. @Holy Soldier Plans for everyone to rejoin as one group on day two and then as one group move forward. I would recommend you join a trainer before we all meet up. Thougth you should talk out with your future trainer how you want to be caught.

I hope this helped answering it. Anything else you wonder about?

[Hylozoist]

Thanks for the prompt reply, @TalijaKey, I appreciate it a lot - especially as there's usually so few other people online when I'm about. Seeing the little notification button spring to life makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

I shall keep in mind your preference for water types! I'll be honest, for some reason, I've had an idea for a Togepi stuck in my head all morning. Although Marills are also every kind of adorable. I shall think on it some more, and see whether or not any of the other Trainer players want to weigh in with a "we need an X/Y/Z...".

Hopefully I can negotiate, and secure, a trainer and sort out the being caught thing before everyone meets up for the Second Day. Getting everyone on the same page, time wise, is certainly the most important thing and, if it looks like I'm not going to be able to find a Trainer player to work alongside before that post, it probably goes without saying that I'd be happy jumping in at a slightly later point in order to help keep everyone together.

Anything else you wonder about?

I think I'm good for now, but if anything pops into my poor tea-addled brain, I shall be sure to ask. I will probably post later on today with a slightly more definite "here are the things I'd give my left foot to play, would anyone want one of these?", which'll hopefully be a bit more useful for everyone!

Thanks again!

[Holy Soldier]

@HylozoistYou better say it like that too when you ask. :P

[TalijaKey]

@Hylozoist My time zone is gmt+1 or London +1 or central europe timezone. So you know when I am around I know the nice fuzzy feelings ;)

Take your time on deciding and play what feels like something you want to play the most. There is a bunch of cute pokemon out there. I am positive you will get a trainer.

[Hylozoist]

Right. The tea has begun to kick in and coherent thoughts are actually happening.

Trainer players! Here are the things I'd give my left foot to play, would anyone want one of these? Due to not being allowed to send body parts via the postal system, a drawing of my left foot will have to suffice in lieu of the actual left foot.

In The Order That I Would Give My Left Foot To Play, From "Most Willing To Cut Foot Off" to "Still Want To Play But Not Quite So Willing To Permanently Maim Myself To Do So"
Togepi, because look at it. Just look at it.
Cleffa, because... okay, look, I'll be honest, there's going to be a theme here, and it's mostly stuff that makes me go "awww".
Marill, because it's blue, it's white and, together, we can use Water Gun to deal with those fire types.
Chansey, because eggs are good for you.
Pancham, because sometimes you just have to punch things, and I got super excited the first time I got one in Pokemon Y.

[Raijinslayer]

Posted, with Jaden trying to play hero and Grazia basically saying 'yeah, this isn't amusing anymore, time to nip it in the bud before we have even more headaches.' Also, she unknowingly shows her soft side in that, even though she hasn't really met Kaiser, she knows what'll happen if he doesn't calm down and is going to make him submit for his own good.

@Newbie: Pancham is an awesome pokemon, but a bit annoying to evolve(mostly in a Nuzlocke Run) but any of them seem like cool pokemon. Now, I think Seth needs a new pokemon(he has a Zoruark on the way and maybe a Shinx) but I know that I'm probably at capacity for Pokemon at the moment.

[Iatos]

@Caits
@Raijinslayer

Well two troublesome posts I guess...

Assuming that Thore would just be a sitting duck there... when Meintja in reality probably need to keep dancing to avoid his lash outs....

I don't see how Grazia would be able to just casually walk over and attack either....

at least not @TalijaKey Rasa get to do something which I was waiting for honestly.

Now I don't even know what to do....

[Saltwater Thief]

@Raijinslayer Nice post. Gives me an idea, actually, but I need to do some reviewing of the IC thread to see if things line up for it to work.

@Hylozoist Well, thus far both me and @Bright_Ops have 2 PC Pokemon to our name, so you'll probably roll with one of us. I'd be happy to have a Togepi, but I also called dibs on the last Pokemon submission so if Bright wants you I'd give him the nod.

PS- nice avy. My least favorite party member, but what a great game.

[Raijinslayer]

@IatosI wasn't assuming, just write that way cause it flows better. Feel free to interrupt anything yiu feel he should, though my thought process was that the confusion,if hit, would freeze him for a moment and that's when she strikes.

[BlackPanther]

@Raijinslayer@Saltwater Thief
I do believe Jaden will be at capacity considering the yellow tag along

And I've got ideas too
But I'll let Seth go first....because I'm putting off assigned readings and I really shouldn't do that

[TalijaKey]

@Iatos Sorry I will most likely post tomorrow, got a bit busy, you can wait on me or post a reaction post. Whatever you feel like it will work. Dont worry Rasa will be doing something.

[Hylozoist]

I'd be happy to have a Togepi, but I also called dibs on the last Pokemon submission so if Bright wants you I'd give him the nod.

@Saltwater Thief

I'll wait to see whether @Bright_Ops calls dibs first, and if he opts to not, then I am afraid to say you might be stuck with me. I've only just hauled my behind out of bed, but I'll start putting pen to paper on a character submission in a bit. If my day magically goes to plan, it'll be up in about eight or nine hours, and then that'll be something a bit more concrete for @Bright_Ops to make a decision on.

PS- nice avy. My least favorite party member, but what a great game.

@Saltwater Thief

Maybe closer to nine hours, I might end up getting sucked back into an FF9 playthrough.

@Hylozoist

Just don't do what I've done and opt in for a Kill Ozma playthrough. I forgot how long and annoying Chocobo Hot & Cold could be xD

[Hylozoist]

@Saltwater Thief

You absolute madman. I've never done it, I've just sheepishly watched other people suffer their way through the Hot & Cold sidequest-minigame-thing. I mostly end up replaying it because there's something about the setting and it harking back to the more fantasy elements of Final Fantasy that I really liked. And the music. And the characters. And the plot. And the fact my brother accidentally scratched up the CDs when I was younger, so for the longest time, we never got past the first disc, so playing through the start of the game reminds me of spending time with him on the sofa back home.

[Bright_Ops]

@Hylozoist

Go ahead. As awesome as a third pokemon would be at the moment Gredy would rather strengthen the pokemon that he has rather then pick up a third right away.
