Hello Everyone!
I'm a huge fan of Pokemon, and already have some experience in running Pokemon based RPs. The one I'm thinking about doing now is more on the classical side of things. I will post for NPCs and decide what Pokemon pop up in the wild (things of that nature).
Here are some details:
--- This RP will include Pokemon from every generation thus far.
--- I spent a lot of time developing a map. Check it out below.
--- To start this adventure, I need two people to join. You two will be 'rivals'. You are not allowed to post again until AFTER your rival posts (or a certain amount of time passes). You will both start at town number 1 (to be named later). Before you start, talk with your potential rival; make sure you both are on the same page with posting frequency.
--- Looking at the map, you may notice that it can be divided into seven main areas, three areas on the mainland and four island based areas surrounding. In each of these areas, there will be one gym. So there are seven gyms. These gym leaders have Pokemon based on Generation not type. These areas will primarily have Pokemon from their own generation, but they may also have Pokemon from other generations as well.
--- I will post after every user post. I will use some advanced hidden dice mechanics to decide things such as wild Pokemon encounters and trainer challenges. When you/we are battling or you're trying to catch a Pokemon, we will use this site's simple dice mechanic so that you can plainly see the results.
--- In this RP, we are going to be ignoring things such as move sets and stats for PvNPC encounters. There are only two things that matter in a Pokemon battle against an NPC: typing and level. Everything else is up to chance through the dice roll system. Be reasonable with your posts though. Don't say, "Pikachu use bubble beam!" And a level 5 Pikachu shouldn't be using Thunder. Reference Bulbapedia if you need help.
--- If you wish to battle against your rival however, the two of you can sort that out in Pokemon Showdown. Again, be realistic when choosing your move sets; reference Bulbapedia.
--- There will be healing items, Pokeballs, and a few other special items as well. You can acquire most battle/hold items however you see fit. Maybe you find them in a random crate or a person gifts you one. They are only used in Pokemon Showdown anyways.
So if you have any questions, or already have a buddy that you want to sign up with, let me know! Thanks!!!
