"Pokemon: Renean Force"

Welcome one and all. Pokemon lovers, come in, come in, to what I hope will be the best pokemon Rp out there!

It's realistic, and i made it to where it feels like a story, and not a game, so come in and see for yourself!

I'm in! I submitted my character too.

I'm 'siked! I've never been in a pokemon RP that actually made sense and wasn't just a written playthrough of the games so.. should be fun.

Sorry for the wait...my router actually gave out due to the sheer amount of internets going through it.

What a hero. :) So yeah, if you need a co-GM, I'm still here.

(continued from Interest Checks)
Yeah, little mechanics like these as well as the level of adhesion to the video games in general is something any aspiring Pokemon GM will want to work out beforehand. The way ChaoticMarin and I ran Down With The Crown was similar, but everyone finds that balance that works best for them. Here's what we agreed to:

-Pokemon were restricted to having access to four moves at a time. Though they could certainly know more, they had to consciously swap out readied techniques in training sessions between fights. If you expand even to five moves, some of the more versatile Pokemon end up being capable of having an answer for everything.

-HM moves didn't count towards the four-move limit (with the possible exception of Surf) because they are specifically designed to facilitate the trainer's desire to get from place to place. Much like a human would undergo CPR certification, Trainers needed to be certified holders of these machines after a short training course in proper use of the technique. I like the idea of the training-video mechanic, though. Rare Candy Treatment also has a hilarious take on why moves that can be learned through HMs are resistant to being overwritten. (Author's note: I've tried this with a Salamence, who learns Fly through level-up in Ruby and Sapphire, and it's treated as if it had learned it via the hidden machine.)

-Like the Pokemon Adventures manga (which I admit I'm unfamiliar with), a Pokemon's "level" was a much more fickle thing than any RPG system worth its salt would have you believe. The example that keeps coming up is the idea of a person's power level in the Dragonball series. Indeed, in the Battle Arcade in Platinum and HG/SS, levels can be artificially raised and lowered.

-Hard numbers are to be avoided at all costs. Grinding is hard enough when all the calculations are done automatically. I learned that the hard way, let me tell you.

I'm glad your excited. I am as well

'm working on a way to incorporate a way for trainers to make money, like odd jobs you can do

and, before I go to bed, im going to put the map up in the places area, and all the cities. this is gunna take a while

EDIT: oops, sorry QB, i posted just after you, it seems

depending on how many to join, i may not be in. If oh, say, 3 or 4 more people join, then you may join the ranks of the GM world

Edit number 2: just caught your edit. Ill DEFIANTLY be keeping those thoughts in my head

The world map is up. Just go to the places tab, then Renea Region.
And if ANYONE says a WORD about what the region has an eerily similar shape too, Arceus help me, Ill-....

never mind.. Im still working on the cities.

Edit number 2: im sorry, im running on empty, and I need tp sleep. I have about 1/2 of the cities done, and I'll have them done tomorrow. Promise. I also need to make an npc roster

I like your second idea, QB, about requiring certifications to use HM's outside of battle.

Im iffy on the move limit, im leaning towards none, because that would give more realism than only four. I can say that, if you don't use a move for a certain period of time, you'll lose it, and have to retrain if you want it back.

good night. Everything should be done tomorrow. Tell your friends, everyone!

Submitted my trainer; I hope everything is in order with her. ^ ^; I know she doesn't have the standard past for a trainer, but I hope it still works. If not, let me know and I'll change whatever is needed.

@Aixulram Hahah. . . . To be honest there, I already had a trainer design made from deviantart before this roleplay, I was suppose to be in another Pokemon roleplay eariler this year, but the GM for it wonked out on me and the others and it never went through. So I was stuck with Alexis, and this seemed like a good chance to use her.

My position is the same as Moksha's. I have no drawing talent. Period.

I'd Like one more person to join but, I'll start this show at Midnight my time (so, about in five hours)

As too the previously discussed matters:

1. I'm not going to impose a move limit. BUT, Once you know more than four, if you don't use any of those moves for a certain period of time, you forget it. This is too keep up with the general realism concept.

2. You must be certified to use an HM. There won't be many, Just Surf, Dive, Rock Climb, and Fly. If you get caught by the police, and you don't have a certification (a badge, basically), you'll get imposed a major fine, and get hauled to the nearest spot of land.

Im working on an NPC roster now.

I'm in the process of making my character now, but seeing as how my laptop's keyboard has crashed and i'm stuck using an on-screen board where i have to 'click' on each key, it's gonna take awhile.

Ok! I'm probably going to be posting around this time every night, because of ski practice and seech... Friday's we go out of town, but I'll try to get a post in anyways. Weekends I'm posting all day.

-not that anyone cares, but it looked like the three of you were waiting for me- o.o

Oh, also, Beta, how would you feel about Spencer being able to tell Alex was really an Alexis? I'd have him keep his mouth shut and everything. It could be fuuuuun :D

@Rarikou XD I was good with Undine having run into either Tyler or Jenny, either one was good.

@Moksha-Achieved Yeah, that'd be good, it'd be fine if Spencer could tell Alex was really an Alexis. ^^ She has more than a few slip-ups and issues maintaining her disguise though. XD
