Tips: 0.00 INK Postby Vix on Sun Jun 17, 2012 11:21 am

36 Pokémon trainers Chosen at birth.
Recognized as the Chosen Ones of an old Pokémon Prophecy. Meant to save and protect Pokémon with Legendary Pokémon as guides.

Will they live up to the Prophecy?
Or will they be beaten down, sending the world into chaos and eternal darkness?

Hey, can I reserve the male chosen for water? Suicune as his guide. And can you elaborate on catching pokémon of your type? Like, how you need to have achieved a friendship with another chosen or a pokémon of another type?
I guess that makes me the LUCKY one.

Sure - And to catch Pokémon of another type, you'd have to become friends with the cooresponding Chosen.

Ex:
Your character can only capture water type Pokémon (secondary types included)
If he wanted to capture say...a Lucario he'd have to be friends with either a Steel or Fighting Chosen.

I think it encourages character interaction - But I'm thinking of limiting them to one type only.
Still in the Beta stage ^^;

Elab. please.

And can I reserve the chosen ice male, and fire female.
I...am mad!!! I do things for no point, no reason, nor do I try! Would it be called madness otherwise?

My thoughts go over expanses of mountains. I act stupid, dumb, just so people underestimate me. So no one overestimates nor estimates normally of me. I am 99% of a perfect being, that one per cent is lost to me not being a real...being.

Hi! May I reserve the ice female, please? She would have Articuno as her guide if that's alright.
Thank you so much! I love the plot for this rp, it's really fascinating!

Hey. May I reserve Normal for female and Fire for male, as well as one wild child slot? (crossing fingers for multiple characters)

I realize that you cannot catch a pokemon that doesn't match the trainers type, but what if you want them to pick up a starter pokemon at a lab? I would like the 'normal' character to have acquired a Tepig this way, if it's possible..

Ice female with Articuno

Fire male


Note:
Starter Pokémon can be any Pokémon of your type in its first evolutionary stage.

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby LawOfTheLand on Sun Jun 17, 2012 1:22 pm

Thirty-six players? I don't know your roleplaying history, but I have to warn you that anything over ten is absolutely massive, no matter how many co-GMs you recruit. When you get this many players, people leaving in disgust over having to wait weeks or months for their turns is a very real possibility.

I also have to ask how you'll be running the battles. I happen to have access to the full damage formula, and I'll just say that there is a very good reason this is a video game and not a pencil-and-paper affair. There is no easy answer for how to simplify the battle system for the use of a play-by-post format, but hopefully you've found a satisfactory compromise.

Also, regarding the chosen ones: Since you've already reserved Latias as the Dragon Chosen, I take this to mean that dual-typed legends can be bonded to either of the typed chosen ones--for example, Jirachi could find itself choosing either the Steel or Psychic representative. Please let me know if I've goofed on this.

Uh, yeah, IDK about 36 players in a single game, but it's not a given that there will be that many trainers at a time(?). I was under the impression that we have a bunch of roles that are to be filled, and once a couple of spots are, then we're good to go. Considering that we're also going to have a shitload of pokemon on the teams, that's not a small number of names to remember. If that was the plot, i concur with QB personally.

I have another question regarding this 'guardian' thing you've got going on. Is it necessary to actually have them on the team? I'd like to reserve Entei and Meloetta for my characters, but I wouldn't really bother with having them out and around all the time. Doesn't sound particularly... stealthy.

Of course I don't expect 36 players.
I'm epic but not that epic - I'm looking for at least one player for each type or at least 36 characters (hence being allowed multiple characters) with no more than 12 players. Remaining slots will be NPCs.

Player × Player battles will be a work of collaboration. The players battling can choose the winner.

And you are correct regarding Dual Types.

You may reserve those two and the Legendaries don't have to be part of your team, but they won't be eligible for any battles except against Team Mystic.
And just because they are out does not mean they'll be in view or even nearby.
The rule of them being out still stands.

I submitted dark male for your evaluation. He's......probably the darkest pokemon character in history.

Nix the pokéthief and infamous criminal bit.

His personality and…"job" also make him ineligible for a Legendary and will most likely have him end up dead early on in the adventure.

Would it not suffice just to make an emo?

The idea for the Chosen Ones is to save Pokémon and become their guardians and protectors. A sadistic Pokémon hunter/thief is a bit contradictory to the reason for them being Chosen.

Right now, I'm unsure of whether to accept or not because the character is more Team Mystic than Chosen One.

Yeah, I get where your coming from.

Though......just thought I'd mention, Darkrai is literally the only Dark Legendary that has been approved, so yeah.

I originally designed him for this other thing where he was a bad guy......so that would make a lot of sense.

I'll just remake him. Same back story, just him not being a criminal.......and maybe a genetic?

You can reject Raid, I'm gonna make a new guy.....still Dark type though.

*EDIT: Alright, made a new guy.
