Mentioning here that I'm going to be away from home for the Easter weekend. I think I'll still have internet but it'll be on my phone so posting is a little more difficult.

Also darkness is a good thing.

I post most of my RP posts on my phone. Generally isn't a problem unless I'm intending on going over 2,000 characters. :P
Levita grumbled back in response; never mind about some law, there was an Ice-type yelling at her and she wasn't going to just take it. If it weren't for the fact that she just entered the guild...ooh, Arceus, she was going to teach him a lesson. The Vanillite stared back at Rebecca blankly, almost as if a Pokémon had done something crazy right in front of him. "Hmph. What kind of wimpy name is 'Oscar'?" he shot back, and he swung open the door.

The Drifloon was able to get a look of the inside of the Vanillite's room; right in front of the door was a bed, a single fridge-like bed next to a table with a single chair. The room hardly had any decorations, and Levita felt a cold draft blow against them. A satchel with a guild badge pinned on it, presumably the Vanillite's, hung on the pegs of the bed. "Now. Who's place does this look like?" he questioned them flatly. "Obviously you two aren't blind and deaf, so you two losers will have to stay away from my chill zone. Guess you and balloon-head have to share with someone else. Speaking of the balloon-head...I didn't know you learned Explosion."

As the Vanillite slammed the door, Levita stormed her way back. "Come on, Reb! let's go find someone else who can offer a place to bunk."

That's because the way the anime/game handles things is bullshit. They don't even take the concept of death and morality seriously.

Therefore you have us making things bigger, better, faster, stronger.

There's plenty of dark material in the RP. I mean, we're killing off Spruce within a day or so.


Well, the RP is not generically dark and it doesn't deviate from the main Pokemon franchise too much.
<Snipped quote by Stale Pizza>

Idunno, Gen V and the PMD2 games got pretty damn dark at times.


Not as dark as Hydreigon Pokemon being abandoned or abused by their parents, racially discriminated, or getting tortured or beaten by some big bad.

Parental death is acceptable, though overused in certain circumstances.
I noticed how most Pokemon RPs are a lot darker than the anime or games make it to be.

Daniel tried to smile at Fary, though it still felt strange to be around all those...adults. When he was younger, he generally remembered seeing all those Pokemon trainers who were probably no older than his current age, a few even becoming Gym Leaders. Times did change pretty fast. When her Zorua Emily popped out, Danny's Litwick Ini quickly flinched back, giving the Pokemon a glare before hiding into his backpack. "Ini..." he muttered, turning back to Fary. "Your mom still does Pokemon Contests? That's...honestly a bit surprising. Pokemon Contests has sort of been forgotten. Not as much Pokemon coordinators in the last five, ten years. It's a bit unfortunate, seeing the Slateport Contest Hall so empty like that."

He sighed and continued on, immediately noticing more trainers near the lab. He merely waved at all of them, not bothering to go with introductions for a second time. The trip was already tiring enough. None of the Pokemon were ones he had never seen before, save for "Quinn". And the lab honestly looked like a train wreck. Danny wasn't exactly getting good impressions of this Kanto region...then a man walked up in front of him and he hesitated.

The matured man definitely was not someone who sounded like "Professor Oak". He seemed experienced, however, and the vulgar language made him smile a bit. "Well, if we weren't here to register for the Kanto challenge, then we probably took the wrong ship," he joked, shuffling back slightly as he blurted that out loud.
Rebecca's metaphorical speech confused the Drifloon and left her silent for a moment. Seriously, she sounds more like a Meloetta now... Levita thought. This team naming added another issue: who was going to be the leader? They probably didn't need one now, but sooner or later they were going to get more members, and they had to be ready for it.

Levita nodded at Reb's second remark. Now that she realized it, they were dirt poor. Apparently when they arrived here, the town Pókemon were trading with some gold-standard currency they called Póke, and now that she thought of it, a few of the wild Pókemon in the dungeon were holding a small pile of those coins. Darn...I should have picked these up when I had the chance. "The rooms shouldn't be too far from here," she noted, and went close to Reb's satchel to take out one of their team badges. It was the standard guild badge with cartoonish Audino ears coming out from the side, but other than that, the center looked plain. Maybe she could get Reb to draw their team insignia on it.

The two went off to find the rooms, which were conveniently located down a long hallway next to the message boards. A few of the room doors were decorated with signs or posters; Levita assumed they were for recruiting lone members. It was a bit hard to find a room, since the guildmaster and his second-in-command didn't exactly assign them one, and most of the rooms were taken anyway. Levita ended up having to test some of the doors to check if they were locked, and finally, nearly twenty rooms down, they found an unlocked room.

Whew...at least I don't have to share with some str- "Hey, you two! Get away from my place!" a Pókemon suddenly shouted; Levita looked up and immediately saw a purple-eyed ice cream figure. He had something in his mouth, and at first Levita thought the Vanillite was chewing on something, until after close inspection, she noticed it was just a small teaspoon. Ice-types... "Get away from my door! Scram!"
Lugia and I were planning to have me be a scraggy (covering rock, ice, ghost, normal, dark, psychic, bug) and having Lugia be a Nidoran F which would have the entire team cover everything but water and flying.


Unfortunately, Scraggy will be wrecked easily with a Fairy or Fighting move.

Honestly, type coverage is impossible to cover, not because of the type, but because of the moveset and stats. Most Pokemon end up with very diversified movesets or use their natural stats to get their way. Some are sweepers, some are sheer defense, and some are fast enough to get the first hit.

Yeah, I meant rounding out the team though. Like, the Dark type would give a solution to Ghost types slapping our shit, but then we wouldn't have much to counter Steel types... I believe a Houndour to be the most MLG solution to this dilemma.


I would actually prefer a Ground type, since that covers Levita's (Drifloon) Rock and Electric weaknesses, along with Rebecca's (Ralts) Steel weaknesses. Another Fire type would cover her Bug weakness and Drifloon's Ice weakness.

In other words, Numel/Camerupt, and then a random Electric type to seal the deal to cover all weaknesses. ( Ground can be dealt with by Levita, unless it's a Rotom. )
<Snipped quote by Stale Pizza>

Well, if it's a Zombie Goast, we can always Find Wepon...

Actually, I'd think a Dark-type would round things out, but all of my ideas for NPCs/rivals/potential recruits have little to do with them.


Rebecca is a Ralts, which is a Psychic/Fairy type, so you cancel out the Poison and Dark weakness at the same time. Your only three weaknesses are Ghost, Bug, and Steel...though the Bug type is hardly played.

And yes, Lugia, you can join our team, though by the looks of it, we might end up with five members if my friend finishes up that app of hers and I write my second app.
