[OOC] Pokémon: Start

[Pirouette]

@PlatinumSkink

Alright posted! I'm glad to be back, even though finals are next week ;_;

[PlatinumSkink]

@Eklispe ... ... ... _{Damn, I could have played clever. XD}

@Pirouette Glad to have you back! Alright. Nicely posted. Yupp, that's a good and entertaining post, thank you. I'm very happy to see it. Training it is! Bunches of grass-Pokémon around, Torchic should have no problem getting a couple levels.

Now, given finals, I completely understand if you don't post for a week, with finals and all that. Just going to say that. XD

[Pirouette]

@PlatinumSkink

And bugs for Sno to crush. Feel bad for Poli who is still stuck without an attacking move.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Joshua Tamashii Alright. Nicely posted. I'll see if I can post tomorrow so that I can get you on your way fairly fast.

@Pirouette This route has grass Pokémon and electric Pokémon. Wouldn't be a good route for Poli even if she did. XD

Granted, there are bugs, but still. XD

[Pirouette]

@PlatinumSkink

Oh darn just rememebered bugs aren’t super effectived by Ice. Grass. Not Bugs.

[Rune_Alchemist]

@PlatinumSkink

Alrighty, a post!

I'll leave whether that is actually Ralia or not up to whatever dice and stuff you use to normally decide stuff. Could go either way with the taunt, I think.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pikmin Eye So, you're down here now. Now say hi to the most common denizens chasing each other around down here. Because if you spend a lot of time here, you'll see a lot of them. XD

@Eklispe Sawsbuck didn't feel like even risking an absurd stroke of luck. That said, you're not out of this yet. Hahahaha.

@Pirouette ... I rolled for all three Pokémon's genders. 12.5% chance of becoming female. All three became female. Wow. That's a, what, 0.2% chance? XD Anyways. Some training gotten done.

@Joshua Tamashii Alright. You've arrived in Lakewatch Town. You're free to continue acting.

@Rune_Alchemist I'm happy you made it. Nicely posted, that was fun to read. And, at least for you, I'm cutting back on the use of dice. This was figured with logic. Haha.

[Pirouette]

@PlatinumSkink

Finally, Poli has an attack move!

And I will add the gender of the Pokemon to my little Pokemon sheets in the IC. Also, I'm glad that so far I've only found and captured Pokemon that are in Pokemon Black and White as I like the little moving .gifs for that.

[Pikmin Eye]

@PlatinumSkink So I know you said quick catch is possible, but how do I exactly do that? Do I just say what I'm going to do in terms of moves and just say quick catch?

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pirouette Thank you. I was gripped with a moment of panic when I wrote "she" and then paused with "am I sure that's correct?", and then went up to your little sheets to find nothing about it. Haha.

... I'm afraid I am not going to be taking availability in Black/White into account for Pokémon you may coincidentally encounter/receive. XD

@Pikmin Eye You explain your tactics in a post, along with as many eventualities as you desire to include and in what circumstance you attempt capture. I will then be typing out how the entire battle went, along with consequences. If something goes wrong with your written tactics, then I'll pause the attempt to quick-capture and await your change of tactics. But, should everything go as planned, it might allow you to capture a Pokémon with a single post-exchange.

It's only quick-catch in terms of how many posts we exchange, the battle still takes as long in-game. That's about that.

[Joshua Tamashii]

@PlatinumSkink so, this town is like Pacficlog, only without the logs between the buildings?

[PlatinumSkink]

@Joshua Tamashii Paci-wha-er- *goes and checks* Oh, that place. Er. Not entirely. The place still has proper streets and turns and such. It's just that where the cars would be driving is water instead. The buildings actually stick up from the bottom rather than float on top of the water, it's a place that was built and flooded but instead of people moving elsewhere they just moved up a floor. Er, hm. I'm considering what city in Pokémon I could compare it to-

Actually, yes. Pacifidlog Town, but the buildings stand straight and orderly, and with urban-themed instead of wooden huts. And instead of logs allowing you to cross the water there are strategically placed canoes that you can jump onto that'll ferry you between the buildings, some mechanic making sure there are always canoes available to cross between all buildings so you can't get stuck. That'd be how the mechanics of the town worked if it was in an actual Pokémon game. XD

[PlatinumSkink]

Posting a bit quickly for both of you, because I felt like it.

@Pikmin Eye Nicely posted, the idea behind catching Heatmor checks out. However, Heatmor's numerous levels higher, and while he was distracted enough to be struck, the next Horn Attack would be countered. With this new information, I did feel that I probably should give you the heads up. "That thing is somewhat strong and that's not necessarily going to work", haha.

@Joshua Tamashii Nicely posted. For you, I basically realized the "arriving in Route 5" post was mostly already written, so go about your business. There's a few other people on this route, too, but if you wish you can simply keep going.

[Pikmin Eye]

@PlatinumSkink There is a fine line between brave and foolish. I choose to abandon this fight. Instead, I will claim this Pokemon after I get a stronger team.

[Pyromaniacwolf]

@PlatinumSkink okay right sorry for dropping off the face of the earth for awhile but i've been doing a-levels and i've been spending most of my spare time either watching crap or gaming (despite telling myself I'll reply here several tmes over the past month or so). Having said that i think I'm going to have to go on hiatus from this RP for awhile. My interest in pokemon in general has dipped in the past few months which has honestly made it less enjoyable writing posts and such. I don't know if I'll return (I may be getting the new moon game for Christmas so my interest may return if you'll allow me back).

Anyway yeah, sorry for disappearing for a few months and coming back just to say i'm leaving, I've had a lot of fun with this RP over the past..year or so.. damn I feel old.

if you need a IC reason for Lucian's disappearance you can just explain it off that he got called back to Joto for family issues. I'll think of something if I return

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pikmin Eye Yepp. Nicely posted. Alright, let's see. I've got something coming up.

@Pyromaniacwolf I did suspect that might be the case, and I'm happy you came and spoke up rather than just vanishing off the face of the earth (permanently). That is alright. I'm very happy to hear that you've been having fun, that means a lot to me. I will allow you back whenever you want to, and because this roleplay currently doesn't need your input we can simply pause you on the lake where you are. Thank you for having been with us. Good luck with any future endeavors.

Still, can I assume that Mia got her Ducklett back so she can have him in any potential future incidents where I use her? He's kinda precious to her. XD

[Pyromaniacwolf]

@PlatinumSkink aye that's fine, but if i ever do come back can i expect the reward for giving it back to her? :V

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pyromaniacwolf Better yet, we'll play that scene, because I had a plan. XD

[Pyromaniacwolf]

@PlatinumSkink ey good to know, honestly the more i think about it the more likely I will return to this RP after christmas, especially if I end up getting Ultra Moon.

[PlatinumSkink]

@Pyromaniacwolf Okay! I'll see you then, then? XD

@Rune_Alchemist Nicely posted. Hm. Alright. I'll see what I figure.
