Hey, guys! How are you all doing? :D

Any other relationships we need to establish?

I am writing the first IC post as we speak, in case anyone is worried. You are still welcome to establish more relationships if you want to, though. Heck, you can do it after the game begins if you like, as long as you don't contradict anything important.

EDIT: Anyone can respond to my character, ignore him, or advance the story at your leisure. You should also always feel free to write retroactively if you wish, so you don't end up forced to stand around doing nothing while the game moves on.

Oh, and just in case - I've seen a lot of Advanced games peter out and die because everyone is sitting around waiting for inspiration to strike, so they can write a massive, amazing post. It's better you post whatever you've got, and keep the game going.

@Maxwell
Question. Pokemon outside of generation 1 aren't allowed but what about pokemon moves introduced in later games? For example, steel type pokemon and steel type moves were introduced in generation 2 and hence should technically not be included, but in Firered there are steel type moves like steel wing. Are they going to be included in this RP or are they to be excluded?

At the very least, moves from types that don't exist (metal, dark, fairy) are out.

That makes sense. Another question though, what are we going to do about the pokemon that have to be traded to be evolved? I'm pretty sure the anime has different rules on it so will we go with those?

Anyone else wanna get in an opening post, for characterization or what not, or should I just go ahead and move things along?

Nah, you go ahead. I have to read two books and finish two essays by Tuesday morning.

Things are finally calming down for me, so I'll see about getting a post up today.

Edit: Well, that didn't happen. Tomorrow though, I promise.

Edit 2: Things keep getting in the way, but I'm writing the post right now.

Edit 3: Oh, and while I still remember; you don't have to follow the games too strictly when it comes to move sets, either, as long as it makes a modicum of sense. A Charizard could learn Fly, for instance. As for HM moves, their overworld applications just aren't going to count - if you have a pokémon large enough, you can ride it, whether it's flying, swimming or landbound. Battles in special terrain also go by series logic - a goldeen is useless on land, and if you toss an Onix into the ocean, it'll sink and probably drown.

Edit 4: Finally done. Anyone who feels like it is welcome take us out of the lab and onto the road to adventure.

Sure. If the old protagonist's name was Red, Oak's grandson should be Blue. I haven't thought much about what he'd be doing, so go wild.

Anyone have any particular wishes for their future pokémon? A bit of overlap is fine, of course, but we probably don't want to end up with identical teams.

Obviously, we're not going to go around catching any legendary pokémon, but I could see us going on a quest to recover a fossil or two in the distant future.

Oh, and all pokémon are considered roughly equal here, so you don't have to feel forced to go with the ones that have the best stats in the game. Needless to say, EV points and other gaming abstractions are not a factor either.

The plan on my end is to think it up as I go along so I don't really have any preferences.

Well I'd love to have an Oddish somewhere down the road. There aren't a whole lot of grass pokemon in the first generation but the ones that are there I all adore. I may venture into capturing a Caterpie so I can have a Butterfree later on.

It really is strange how uneven the type spread was in the early generations. Granted, I'm not sure if it's any different now.

Well, I guess I'll answer for professor Oak then, and then we can get the adventure started.

I'd definitely like to get Wynne stuck with a magikarp that'll eventually become a gyarados; I'm not too sure what I want for her beyond that.
