Introduction
The Roleplay: This is a game-style Pokemon roleplay. You can do pretty much whatever you want to here. I will be narrarating the roleplay as a GM rather than an actual character. This means that I'll be whatever characters are needed. Travel companions, Gym Leaders, Rivals, Team Rocket, that's me. I'll add where I need to.
There are a few regulations on your character. You may only start with a single, unevolved Pokemon. You may not capture legendaries. You cannot kill, steal from, or greviously injure other characters (without their permission, of course). Other than that, it's a free-for-all. Travel with NPCs or OCs.
You may also begin anywhere in the original four regions, excluding the Rainbow Islands. Just give me time to create the world up to your hometown (which is where you'll begin) before posting. Also, make sure to select your location from the dropbox at the right of the "Posting" screen.
Also, you can become an explorer! After you gain some much needed experience as a trainer, you'll be able to travel to the uncharted regions of the map. Just make sure that you bring a companion or two out there, because it may get mighty lonely...
The Rules:
1 No Godmodding. Duh.
2 Cursing is not allowed.
3 Romance is allowed, but keep it PG10. Nothing past kissing, please. I mean, COME ON, it's a Pokemon roleplay.
4 Please subscribe, bookmark, or post to the OOC thread so that you'll know when I post information regarding how to Pokemon battle and other important information.
5 Speaking of the OOC thread... please keep OOC chatter or questions there. Please and thank you.
6 Literacy, please. I'd like posts of 2-3 good paragraphs. Please do your absolute best to use proper spelling and grammar. One or two mistakes are fine, but I want to be able to read it...
7 Check back here often. Let me know if you're leaving.
8 Leveling up is not part of the RP. Evolving pokemon will be based on the characters abilities. Use good judgement when you think its time to evolve, please.
9 I may make up more rules. They will be bolded.
10 I think that I will be overwhelmed by the number of people who would sign up, given the chance. Therefore, I will stop accepting characters after a few more. Once a few people quit, I will reopen signups. You can submit a character, go for it... but I may PM you to tell you that you'll have to wait a while before actually participating.

Updates:
-Posting: All IC will be located under the Activity tab (see above). Make sure to select the location that your character is before posting. If you accidentally post to "The Pokemon World", it's okay, just edit the post and cut it. Then go back and post it to the correct location.
-Location: It appears that the Location dropbox will not display all areas of the Pokemon World. Anything after New Bark Town seems to have been cut off. However, there is still a way to post to the hidden locations. Go to the Places tab and scroll down until you see the place that your character is. Click that location. Once there, you can see posts that are there
-Battling: To avoid clogging the IC, all battles with NPC (characters played by me) will be held in the Battle Arena, then posted to the IC in a condensed format by me. PvP battles will be held in the same manner.
-Random Events: To simplify things on the GM side, please pick a number, 1-10 unless specified, in every post.
-Unexplored Territories: As soon as I finish putting in all the locations for the known map, I will add the option for your character to travel to new places. You can see the map (linked above) for details. Of course, that's only if you want to. I just figured that I should have some kind of explorer option.
-Map: As of now, I have finished inputting data for all places in Kanto and Johto. Since I have never been a fan of Hoenn, I will have to go back and play some of Ruby in order to get my barings in that particular region. I will move on to Sinnoh, since I'm more familiar. So, until Hoenn's up and (sort of) running, no one start there! Or, if you're planning on it, wait until I finish. But that may take several weeks...
-Catching Pokemon: I will tell you when you encounter a Pokemon. I can tell you the technical way that catching them works, but basically, you can only 'attempt' to do things. If your Pidgey uses Scratch, I'll tell you whether it worked. If you throw a Pokeball, I'll tell you if that worked. So don't post that you catch every single Pokemon, because that would fall under rule #1.

I snatched a pink button-up shirt, my light colored sweater, a pair of jeans and some light blue running shoes. I pulled on the ensemble quickly, stopping momentarily to roll the bottom of my pants up just an inch or so above my ankle. I looked at the dazed Pikachu who was now getting up and looking at me confusedly. I carefully took my bag off of the back of my desk chair as I explained to him why I... we... were in such a rush.
"Did you forget? Tsk, tsk, tsk! Today is the day we start our journey to become the best!" I said cheerily, only to get a 'Pika!' in reply. I held out my arm, letting the small yellow Pokemon rush up to its spot on my shoulder.
"Alice?!" I heard my mom call from down stairs.
"Yeah! I'm coming!" I called back, carefully coming down the stairs.
*****
"Bye!" I called behind me as I waved. I was walking away from the house, my best friend in and out of battle running by my side (I mean Pikachu) as I started my way down the dirt paths. I couldn't decide where to start. Should I go into the tall grass and try to catch some Pokemon to train or should I go into town and look at the Pokemon people had for sell or trading? There were so many options!

As Alice walked confidently toward the exit of Pallet Town, a boy of roughly seventeen years was stooped in front of a small bush. She could barely make out the sound of him saying, "Come on, buddy. You can trust me! There's no danger here." His shaggy blue hair brushed his long nose as he attempted to coax a nervous-looking Swinub from the cover of the bush.
Only a few yards away stood another pair. "Mom, we've done this before. I'm just passing through." The tall girl brushed her long brown hair out of her face and hugged her the shorter woman, who appeared to be crying. "I'll be back before long." At her feet ran a young Growlithe, yapping and chasing some kind of airborne insect. "Growlithe, cut it out!"

Thach lay in his bead, still in the cloths he put on earlier that mornng. His faithful companion, Beau the Ekans, was too asleep on Thach's stomach. He lazily opened one of his eyes, "Alright, alright...*yawn*...'cmon Buddy, lets see if we can't actually go somewhere today.."
"Ekansssss!!!" Beau squealed, tumbling off Thach and the bed in his excitement. He waited for his trainer to get out of the bed.
"Alright, man, I'm coming..." He said as he patted his friend. His room was a bit messy, clutter all over his desk, and random cloths on the floor. He put on his boots and followed his friend downstairs to his upset mother.

Alice looked around, hearing the slight whisper of a boy maybe a year older than her. It sounded like he was coaxing something or someone nearer. Pikachu looked up at her curiously.
"Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing." she said, leaning down and ruffling the yellow creature's fur. She followed the sound of the voice towards a bush. What was a doing? Coaxing a Pokemon?
"Hey, Pikachu?"
"Pika?"
"Can you go check it out for me?" she asked and the little Pikachu sprinted off, slowing down as he reached the bush. He peered around the green leaves to see the boy coaxing a Pokemon. So, he came out further to investigate.

[Thach Wilson] Thach's mother looked him over disapprovingly as he trudged downstairs. "If you're going to go, at least wear some fresh clothing." She smiled softly at her son's habits, handing him a sack full of food and wheeling over a brand-new bicycle. It had a basket and a strap to attach useful items. "I bought this for you. It's the newest model."
The door opened, and a girl of about Thach's age entered the room. It was the next door neighbor, Emilia Johnson. "Ms. Wilson, that flock of Spearows attacked your garbage bin again. It's all over the place." She smiled at Thach, brushing her short red hair behind her ear and lifting her small Oddish from the ground. "Hey, Thach. Leaving on a Pokemon Journey?"
[Alice Liddael] The boy, sighing and messing with his hair, stood up as the Pikachu came near. The Swinub beneath the bush shrank back even further, but the distraction of the Pikachu provided the boy with the opportunity to swiftly reach into the bush's depths and remove the Swinub. "Hello, Pikachu," he said in his mild voice. He smiled and stood upright. "My name's Kyle. I'm assuming you own that little guy?" He pointed kindly to the yellow Pokemon.

Thach noticed the girl and wiped his eyes. "I swear, those Spearow are going to be the death of me.." Thach then thought to himself "Wait...I won't be here to clean it up! HA HAAA!!!" Thach grinned at the thought and then walked up to Emilia. "Hey Emi. Yea I'm going on my journey." He noticed the Oddish. "Hey Oddish!" He said in a kind of babied voice. He then looked at Beau, who had now coiled himself around his left arm. He was doing his creepy Ekans grin at the tiny grass pokemon "Ekans Ekansss...". Beau normally did this to people or Pokemon as a sign of a friendly greeting.

"So, are you a Pokemon trainer just starting out or have you been on the road for a while?" she probed further with her questions. Her curiosity was getting the better of her and she wanted to know more. She always wanted to know more about something.

He, too, was curious. But first he answered her questions, not wanting to intrude too rudely. "Oh, I've definiely been on the road for a while. I'm just passing through." He pointed to his right hip, where three Pokeballs sat. "This Swinub's only my newest addition. I also own a Jinx and a Cloyster." He chuckled, thinking back just a bit. "I was just Surfing south of here, down around the Whirl Island and even a bit further in the Orange Islands, trying to find a Water Stone to evolve my Cloyster from Shellder. It worked."
Tucking a flyaway tuft of hair back into the rest of the blue mass, he asked, "So... which way are you and Pikachu headed? I'm assuming north, but where from there? Johto or Pewter City?" He liked Alice. She was outgoing and nice. Plus her Pikachu was cute.

[Thach Wilson] Route 1 Emilia, still smiling, hoisted her own bag to her shoulder and ran to Pallet Town's exit, which was Route 1. "Hurry up, Thach, this'll be fun!" The girl was excited. The baby Oddish was set on the ground and toddled around at Emi's feet, looking like a potted plant. With legs, of course.
Suddenly, a shadow appeared out of no where, knocking the tiny grass Pokemon from its feet. Emilia picked up the Pokemon, protecting the baby. In front of her stood a large, hawklike Pokemon - a Staraptor. She panicked and cowered slightly. "Thach, help!"

At that moment the two hear a yell coming from the way that they are going. The two start to run the way they heard the yell. As the get there they see a girl cowering with a Oddish beside her and a Staraptor standing over them.
Without even telling the girl that he was there to help or anything Blake says a little loud "Drake use Horn Attack!" Drake runs at the Staraptor slamming into it with its horn making it fall in pain.

Before Ekans could make it to the attacking Staraptor, a Ryhorn beat it out of the air with a horn attack. "Ryhorn? In these parts? No, that has to belong to a trainer." Thach looked around and noticed a pinkish haired boy around his age.

[Lee Wilter]The tall girl with brown hair, sighing frustratedly at the young Growlithe at her ankles, saw a boy about her age walk out of a nearby house, tailed by a Pikachu. "Hey, are you leaving?" she asked, smiling at him. "My name's Melissa Brown, and I need some help... I'm a Pokemon Breeder, and I recently adopted this puppy from an abandonment shelter in Saffron..." she winced slightly. "Bad idea. Anyway, if you're headed out of town, I could really use a hand."
The Growlithe was acting like a complete nuisance. It had attacked Melissa's foot, demolished one of the flowers in the house's garden, and tackled the Pichu in a very friendly but boisterous manner. It was easy to see that the demure Melissa would have a hard time travelling with such a Pokemon by herself.

Emilia peered into the trees, orange hair swaying as she stood on tiptoe. "Who was that?" Then she turned to Blake, smiling. "And who are you?" The baby Oddish was recalled into the confines of its Pokeball as well, since there were so many things around that scared it.
Before Blake had a chance to say much of anything, however, Emilia's first question answered itself. A boy with sweeping red hair stepped from behind the tree. He wore a black coat and smiled maliciously as he held up a Pokeball, which clearly contained the Staraptor. His eyes glinted red; he was wearing contacts. "Well, fools, I would say that you've won some sort of prize. Except you couldn't fool me. My name's Tom. Tom Marv. I'd stay away from me, if I were you. But I'd hate to be you." The boy set off into the trees once more, and soon it was as if nothing had happened.

[Alice Liddael and Zack Valdez] Kyle turned to the boy who approached him and Alice. "Hello. I'm Kyle, a Pokemon trainer. And you would be?" His tone was polite, but reserved. He didn't mind talking to people he didn't know individually, but groups of people made him just a bit nervous. "Nice Mudkip, though. I'll bet it grows to be a fine Pokemon."

This large, abandoned elecrtical facility sits on a river just east of Route 10 and Rock Tunnel. It's odd how Pokemon shirk this place...

Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
But anyway, now I'm back. :D
For people who haven't posted in a while or plan to take an extended absense, that's fine, as I've said before. If you're travelling with anyone besides me in the roleplay, you'll probably want to let them know, but other than that, it's just kind of 'at your leisure'.
Anyway, it's back to the grindstone. Hopefully, I'll start to get closer to inputting all the places in Hoenn soon, since people are travelling there. O_o
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
It also makes sense my character Tekno (who has never been to Kanto before, ever) would not know of the Pokemon Center charging for rooming, like he was confused, since the Centers in his home region of Vohkani do not. To him, the only thing he is aware of that they charge for meals (since they DO have to make money somehow).
Alright, that clears things up a bit more. Thanks!

Since I'm not sure, let's just assume that in Johto and Kanto, they charge for food and rooming at the Pokemon Center, since they don't have enough room for all of the new trainers. By the way, do you remember the name of the big company from Hoenn? It's not Silph Co...))
Oh I know this one since my chara is from the Hoenn universe, the Silph Co of Hoenn is called Devon Corporation (aka Devon Co) an it´s "base" is in Rustboro City.
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
For example, if you're in a conversation with a character that I haven't really explored character-wise yet, then I choose the personality based on how close your number was to mine. If it's right on the button, then that character might have a personality that complements yours, or if they already have a personality determined, then they'll be more favorable to the character.
Wild Pokemon also use this method. If it's pretty clear that you're looking for a Pokemon (or even if you're not) then I'll roll to see (a)whether you can find a Pokemon and (b) how good of a Pokemon I consider it to be. A good example is the fact that, since ShatteredMind rolled my number before my last post, she found a Skitty that didn't even need to be battled in order to own it.
A third example: if you're wandering around in the wild, then I'll use them to figure out how lost you get.

And that would explain how I barely ended without the chance to catch a pokemon... twice.
So yeah, we are playing like dungeons and drangons, rolling to decide which comes next.
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
If it is, I apologize, because each post I had was simply increasing in number with each successive post. >XD And I was a little ignorant otherwise, and I just wanted to ask for clarification. Or does the "roll of the die" only apply to stuff like battles?
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
Sorry it took me so long to get around to this--meant to do this, like, a million years ago!
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
As for Tekno, it's your choice... XD
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
I have a very crudely drawn map of Vohkani (Tekno's home region) drawn and uploaded to my computer somewhere. I'll post it or PM it to you, whichever you'd like.
And I completely understand. I might make some minor changes to Tekno here than in the other roleplay...or I may keep them and integrate them into the other one, not sure. LOL
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
As for starting in Kanto, you don't have to. It's just random chance that everyone so far has chosen that region to begin in. RIght now, Kanto, Johto, and some of Hoenn is open to start in. And if you want to start in Sinnoh, then you'll have to wait, because it takes forever to input all the places to the roleplay. But you have to start in one of the four regions.
I would prefer if your character was from one of the four regions as well, but if you wanted to make up a region, send me a map or some sort of basic explanition and I'll add it to the list of places I have to add. A made-up region would be fun to toy with.
The only other requirement is that they begin with a basic or baby level Pokemon. But this doesn't mean that they have to be pathetically weak. Your Pokemon, even though it wouldn't be evolved yet, could be fairly powerful.
The only reason I have the whole 'characters must be approved' thing set up is to prevent a buttload of new trainers bombarding me this weekend. So go ahead and submit, and I'll tell you if there is anything that you would need to change.
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
I do have an odd question--even though we're starting in Kanto, could I have it to where my character is from another region that isn't in the games? And is it preferable they start out with a weak Pokemon, as like a beginning trainer? Just thought I'd ask...
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
For any wild Pokemon, you'll just post to the IC. All Pokemon you'll encounter in the wild will be fairly weak, so you will only need two or three posts in order to defeat it or catch it. For legendary Pokemon encounters, I haven't worked that out yet, but I'll figure it out if that should become more important. It will be extremely difficult to encounter a legendary Pokemon.
Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
If we are about to battle an NPC wild Pokemon, regardless of intention to capture or not, do we have to go through the whole Chat battle process? I'm just thinking about flow of RP.
On another note, about 2 hours after this post I'll be gone for the weekend.

Re: [OOC] The Pokemon Experience
As for the attacks, you don't need to use an HM to be able to cross bodies of water and such. Just be realisitc. For example, in the games, you could teach a baby Squirtle Surf and then cross the ocean. But that doesn't make sense, since the poor thing would probably die from exhaustion. If you have a Pokemon that's capable of using an ability (such as Surf, Teleport, Cut), you'll be able to. Just post ahead of time (say, Suzzy says, "I want to get to Pallet Town really fast. I'll use my Abra to teleport there') and I'll tell you in the GM post whether or not that's possible.
As for other moves, just be realistic as to your Pokemon's capabilities. I don't care if you use moves that normally wouldn't be there, as long as they make sense for the Pokemon and aren't way overpowered. (Mareeps can't use Horn Drill. Nor can they use Thunder.)
I won't be posting to the IC tonight. Too much work to do. ReEvolution needs to move her post to Pallet Town...
This roleplay is a LOT of work. I may be putting a temporary limit on the number of people that are allowed to join until I get into an easier time. Like summer. That would be awesome.
