I'ma be honest, if we use a spreadsheet for anything, I'm out.

Aside from being incredibly restrictive, I don't think think it adds anything other than needless complication to the process. As long as a pokemon is reasonably in an environment it can be encountered in (say, a rock type in a mountain or a wooper in a swampy/watery area). I don't think we'd have that problem. realistically speaking, pokemon aren't exactly easy to capture. Not to mention, the fact that [b]no one is going to be carrying around 99 pokeballs in their backpack to just spam at a pokemon.[/b]

There goes my idea for a Pokeball hoarder character :-P

But really, I do have a character idea in my head. I'm not sure if I'm going to join or not (I know I won't if my Pokemon are determined by a spreadsheet), but I'm posting to give my two cents on this.

I can see what you mean here. Honestly, if the spreadhseet was to come back, it wouldn't be by dice rolling and rarity, you would be free to pick Pokémon form the area, and they would make sense. [b]But I feel I can't trust you all[/b], and I believe that you wouldn't be trying to capture a magikarp I the middle of a god damn volcano.

I think common sense is a good baseline to use in a roleplay like this. You're not going to catch a Mewtwo on the first route of the game, but if you find a Pidgey there, nobody is going to be surprised. I think there has to be a certain level of trust in the roleplayers or no roleplay will work out.
