Pokemon Chrome [Interest Check]

[Sen]

I'm interested in this. For starting pokemon, are we allowed to start with any Pokémon (with the exception of Legendries of course)?

@BladeSS4

Yeah, you're allowed to start with any first evolution, as long as it isn't legendary/mythical.

[EnterTheHero]

Boo. I have arrived. Interest, checked!

[I-Am-X]

We should probably just up and start the OOC with the looks of things xD.

Got the CS's of my Team Arclight Duo done (the bio ended up being longer then intended and the one for the boy ended up turning out like some rp post but oh well). Will work on the admin once I wake up.

[Sho Minazuki]

The Megas list in the first post is slowly being added to starting today. PM me your Megas.

[Shadeflare123]

I'm brand new to this site and complete trash for Pokemon, so definitely count me in.

[Sho Minazuki]

Excellent. Most of the things left are pictures before the OOC can be opened, E4 and Gym Leaders.

Once that's done I can open OOC while wrapping up the other assets.

[Shadeflare123]

One quick question, sorry!

On the Systems and Rules page, it says that in order to evolve, Pokemon have to participate in as many battles as half their level. For my starter, I settled on a Pokemon that evolves at level 25. So, would my starter evolve at 12 battles or 13 battles?

[Sho Minazuki]

Yes, that is correct. You can have them evolve as soon as that happens, or you can wait a bit for a more dramatic moment if you so choose.

[Scio]

Regarding the setting of the RP, would it be similar to the anime? Or would it be alright for some of us to tackle the whole concept of pokemon in a more mature or maybe dark/serious manner?

[Sho Minazuki]

It's pretty close to the anime, I'm allowing people to have more freedom with character creation, but if you make something dark and brooding for the sake of being dark and brooding I'm not accepting it. You need some meaning to it and to not be excessive.

[Matador]

I've already got a CS for a trainer who's gonna tackle the league. If anyone wants to see it and potentially plot out a meeting between our characters, just send me a PM.

[MechonRaptor]

I'm considering making a trainer whose going to go for the pokemon league and do contests in their free time.

[Sho Minazuki]

We do need more Contest-goers. So far we only have what, 2 confirmed coordinators? Yeah.

[alexfangtalon]

@Sho Minazuki You already know of my interest from when the other one ended. I'll do any role you need me to. I have a question though. When you first brought this up and mentioned people controlling environment characters I mentioned like a Blue sorta environment character but you never responded to it. Are you against that?

[Sho Minazuki]

I was thinking of making that type of character as my PC, since Rylen is already the region's champion.

If you want to do it then I can let you, that being said, it's not like there's only one player, so you can be that asshole-foil to someone in particular if you so choose.

[Sho Minazuki]

Release schedule, I'm looking to have enough ready to open the RP tomorrow.

[1Charak2]

With the Release of pokemon sun and moon I would like to say that this has my interest. I guess I'll run a Trainer aiming for both Contests and the league, as you do.

[AbysmalDemon]

I've already expressed my interest to you as a contest GM. I might not create the character I had originally planned if we don't end up getting a lot of contest goers.

[Sho Minazuki]

Alrighty.

So for now the GMs are...

Arclight
@Bornlucky@floodtalon@I-Am-X

Contest
@AbysmalDemon@MechonRaptor

For safety, everything requires at least two GMs, in case one needs to cover for the other.

Meaning I need one more GM for Contests.

In general as main GM I am able to cover for all of them, but having to not need to so often means I can take care of the administration stuff like editing posts and controlling certain characters.

Furthermore, while you are assignment a specific GM role, you are able to do the following.

• Updating for player's adventures. If a GM goes missing and a player is waiting, you automatically get creative liberty to whatever was happening and can take over. Communicating with the player in case there were plans is also a good idea.
• Playing for Gym Battles. What team the gym leader uses will be your discretion, however I will add a few rules to adhere by when choosing the teams.
• Creating NPC trainers or even recurring characters for the players to deal with/meet/battle in their adventures.
• Throwing a completely random Pokemon encounter at a player once in awhile. While players CAN encounter whatever they wish, you are allowed to throw a completely random encounter their way at an unexpected time.

Man I have a lot to write into the OOC post huh...? Anyways, that's what I've established so far. Just one more Contest GM though and I don't have to worry about GM assignments for now.

I'll get to writing the OOC up later today. Hopefully I can properly organize and finish it today though.

[MechonRaptor]

I can be a contest GM, as I always did like them anyway, at least in the anime. I guess the games were alright when it came to contests though, and if anyone else would rather be it, I'm alright with that as well.
