[OOC] Legends Among Us (Pokemon RP) (closed)

@Leos Klien you know how you kill a sun, right? *Prepares black hole making device*

[Thundercrash]

@ThundercrashHm. I just realized Rebeca is one of the few characters who has never directly heard from their Avatar. Perhaps the Red Orb might unlock Groudon's consciousness?

@Zanavy

I've thought about this before, and here's the thing. I think that I had a different idea of what being an Avatar is than what everyone else did. Thus far, what I've seen is that for most people, or at least those who are still here, the Legendary that they are the Avatar of is essentially a guest inside their body, and they are borrowing that Legendary's power for themselves.

Whereas what I had thought of was that the Avatar was an actual fusion of human and Legendary. Groudon isn't inside Rebeca, Rebeca is Groudon. When Rebeca is in her base form, she is still more or less her original self. In Primal form, her mind is more Groudon than the original Rebeca.

[Zanavy]

@ThundercrashIt's totally fine for different people to have different ideas about the nature of Avatars. That's part of what makes it interesting.

[Thundercrash]

Sooo, yeah. For all intents and purposes, Groudon and Rebeca are two sides of the same person. For the most part, she will stay as "Human Rebeca". "Groudon Rebeca" will only show up if/when she goes Primal. She can only go Primal if she gets her hand on the Red Orb, and if she gets worn down enough she will revert back to her base level or die from placing too much stress on her body.

[Thundercrash]

In terms of speculation about what Pokemon is doing with Sun and Moon, I've actually been following this one Youtuber who has a rather interesting theory. He believes that Sun and Moon is essentially the "end of Pokemon", and that the entire series is getting a reboot. Of course, a lot of what he is saying is speculation and some of it is a stretch, plus the videos he releases explaining his theory are pretty hammy, but still. He presents a pretty convincing argument.

[Rethel34]

People had similar theories about gen 6. It's as bad as people trying to predict the end of the world XD

[Thundercrash]

Maybe. But it's still pretty interesting to listen to, hamminess and all :)

Here's Part 1. He's currently working on Part 3.

[Leos Klien]

Pokemon has one of those feelings around that suggest it'll never come to an end, I doubt that the Pokemon company will make the decision to end the series; as in the story arc, moments after the 20th anniversary.
I hope that's not the case anyway, it will be a sad day if it ever comes.

[Thundercrash]

@Leos Klien Oh yeah, Pokemon is going to be around well after I'm dead. But if this guy's theory is correct (and even if he's wrong, you have to at least admire how much effort he's put into it), then Gamefreak puts a LOT more thought into a kids game than I think anyone gives them credit for. And if he's right and Pokemon is getting a hard reboot, I'm interested in seeing what they will do next.

[NightmareInd]

So I've updated my app a bit by adding an appearance and a hometown. I also removed the Flame body ability, as I thought the heat radiation already basicly did just that. Just trying to come up with a good personality besides him being pissed off quickly, and a fitting backstory.

p.s. here is a link to the app: roleplayerguild.com/posts/3879744

[Thundercrash]

@NightmareInd isn't that the dude from the new Yugioh series? I'm pretty sure I've seen that picture before.

[NightmareInd]

@Thundercrash Yes and no, it's from yu-gi-oh but I believe that it's like second release or so.

[Leos Klien]

And the Collab is done, happy reading everyone.

[Thundercrash]

@Zanavy Oh, something that I wanted to ask you, Zan. Besides the prize draw for participating, are their other ways we can get TM's and such?

[Sickle-cell]

Yea, that's Jaden from Yu-Gi-Oh GX.

Not that I was a massive nerd of that show when I was a kid or anything >.>

[Leos Klien]

@Sickle-cellYou're fooling no one Sickle :P

[Sickle-cell]

Oh.

Oh @Zanavy.

Now Silas is a guy I can really come to like =P

[NightmareInd]

Finished my app :D

He also likes swimming in lava

@NightmareInd

o.o"

I don't think being an avatar translates as well enough to prevent ones body from combusting in Lava, Your body still contains water in it, which will still cause your body to explode violently if you sat in Lava.

Just, my opinion on that one.

@Leos Klien

Rebeca has already set the precedent on that.

In any case, it wouldn't be something that happens a lot, because lava typically doesn't stay in a molten state for long.
