Nope, just wanted to have a place set aside for them.

@Zarkun

Okay. I guess that works, just in case someone wanted to set up a branch of their organization there.

I have to offer some refutation on items. We now don't have potions, which were kinda helpful, and for those of us not in an organization like the Helping Hands Guild, a lot of the items are beyond obtaining. Perhaps reevaluate the prices.

[dimitri]

@Balthazar007 ah right! i might redact my character then because his backstory won't work with that and i'm a little thin on ideas. maybe i'll join at some other time though, good luck with this bc it seems neat!

@Zarkun

I got rid of Potions because they complicated the whole PvP atmosphere that I'm trying to expand upon. They can't be used in battle in Pokemon Showdown. And there is no way to accurately represent a Pokemon going into a Pokemon Showdown battle with only a portion of it's HP.

Therefore, I added a 'healing feature' for PokeBalls to rid the need for Potions at all. PokeBalls (of all kinds) now heal Pokemon as long as the trainer isn't in battle.

I'm still playing with pricings. I think missions now deal out more TP. That's why I went upward. I can come back down a bit though.

@Balthazar007

It's primarily the pokeballs, since those are essential for growing our Pokemon collection.

@dimitri

I don't see why that has to effect his backstory. The Ghastly could have been a tag along companion for a long time. Once he gets his first PokeBall however, he can catch it and officially start training it.

We all had to build our Pokemon up from level 1. It's not that hard.

[LuckyBlackCat]

@dimitri Yeah, one of my characters had a Chikorita following her around for years, so there's no reason why you couldn't do something similar with your character's backstory.

@Zarkun

I lowered the prices on PokeBalls just now. Also, if someone creates a 'Research and Development Institution' dedicated to PokeBalls, characters in that organization get them at half price.

@LuckyBlackCat

Do you remember what the mission rewards were for the mission we just did? I don't XD

[LuckyBlackCat]

@Zarkun I don't remember how many trainer points, but I seem to remember people could choose between an Axew egg and an Alolan Meowth egg.

@LuckyBlackCat

That's right. I was gonna go with Axew originally, but then I caught a Gible...Eh, I'll still take the Axew egg XD

[Zarkun]

@Balthazar007 I finished updating the Pokemart. How's it look now?

@Zarkun

Perfect! All good to go!

[Balthazar007]

@LuckyBlackCat

Two notes on your Character sheets.

One, I assume you're planning on keeping track of your Pokemon levels within your IC hiders instead of your character sheet. That's cool by me, just making sure.

Two, I have brought back the 6 classic Pokemon party limit. So if a trainer has eight, you'll either have to invest in a new "Good Poke Belt" item from a shop or put pokemon into your PC for backups. (AKA reserves)

[LuckyBlackCat]

@Balthazar007 Yep, keeping track of levels in hiders, and will edit the character sheets now.

[Balthazar007]

UPDATE:

So some of you may have noticed that the day and night cycles have slowed down a bit. Consequentially, there are no more sunrise/sunset Pokemon level boosts. To offset this loss, I have removed constrictions on how often you can battle to raise a Pokemon's level (wild Pokemon battles & PvP battles).

[Balthazar007]

@Zarkun

Oh hey, I spoke too soon. Archaeological items are not sold in Poke Marts. That's why they don't have a price listed. My reasoning is that those aren't items that can just be mass produced. Those are artifacts that have to be dug up by an Archaeologist.

I don't think I clearly stated that anywhere, so that slip up is my fault.

@Balthazar007

I'll figure out some replacements. Knowing that, I can actually think of a couple of fun ways for them to show up.

@Balthazar007
So do we post as if our characters are starting over or continue where we left off?
