Alright everyone!

Tommorow, November the 9th, marks sunrise within this RP. For those of us that are new, this is definitely one of the best days to post all month long. Each of your trainers will gain bonus trainer points, and three of their Pokemon will gain an extra level. If you haven't posted yet, or in a while, you'd be smart to do so!

I'm still steadily working on the opening OOC post.

Thanks!

Question:
When capturing more Pokemon, does both of its types have to match the locations types, or just one?

Thanks!

@Dark Light

Both types must be contained within the location.

Hey guys and gals!

I promised you that a new site is on the horizon, and that is still the case. I will be simplifying this RP thread first, then creating the more in-depth version of this RP on that new site. Again, both the new site and this RP thread will be intertwined, operating simultaneously.

What I can't promise anymore is a super speedy process. I have been promoted from part-time server/manager to full-time manager at work IRL. I've got a lot to focus on in the next week or two in order to make the most of this opportunity. I'll continue to work on this RP at a slower yet still steady pace.

Thanks!

@balthazar Would trainer be able to "gift" each other items, and would they be able to "sell" Pokemon to each other for either TP or items? Because realistically it could happen, but it doesn't in-game.

@Dusksong

Yes to gifting items or selling them at low rates.

No to selling Pokemon. Trading Pokemon is okay though, obviously. They just have to be at the same tier.

I'll do my best to get a post up over the weekend! I burned my hand so it'll take a while to type.

@Invader Len

You're okay!

And I apologize for not getting a new mission rolled out quicker. I received a surprise promotion at my IRL job this weekend. I'm going to be awfully busy for the next week or so getting settled.

@Balthazar007
Thats cool, if you change your mind I'll still be here.
I've just always found the hunting of Pokemon to be an integral part of the gaming experience, thought it would add a nice exciting unpredictable element. :)

@Dark Light

I understand where you're coming from. I'm just concerned about the practicality of implementing, enforcing, and tracking those sort of transactions. On a completely text based post-to-play site, it seems like a huge challenge. Though, I'm all ears if you have a way to simplify it so that users easily understand and so that I don't have to spend extra time monitoring it.

@Dark Light

Ah, I see. Unfortunately, while I do wish for the new site to be more game like than this thread, you may be taking it further than I'm willing to go. Nevertheless, I will consider your suggestions.

Thank you!

Pokemon: New World

@Balthazar007
Well if you need a hand ironing out systems, I'd gladly help. Otherwise looking forward to it!
Will the new place have a dice roller?
And will our characters transfer, or new game?

@Dark Light

Please elaborate further on what you mean by "systems". What are your specialties? I do not currently see a need for dice rollers but I may introduce them if that changes. Yes, all characters will be able to transfer. This new site will run along side this thread. This thread is going nowhere.

Pokemon: New World

@balthazar007 I'm a girl, but yeah. Lips locked in anticipation ;)

@Dusksong

Oops... yeah, I should have guessed. Two out of three of your characters are female. hahaha!

I've edited my post to reflect this ground breaking information. XD

Hello Everyone!!!

I have come to the realization that I would like to do a lot more with this RP than is able to be done with the tools provided by this site. Therefore, I am going to create another forum site that will supplement this RP. But before that, I am going to simplify this RP so that it is much easier to manage. For instance, I'm going to start by slimming the rules to battling. I'll try not to change the fundamental concepts that everyone seems to easily grasp though, such as catching Pokemon and the tier system.

All the features that I'm deleting, and more that haven't even been introduced yet, will be released along side the new site. I've made many stand alone forum based RPs in the past. I know that this is the easiest way to implement all the features that will make this RP much more involved. Also, by releasing all these features on an outside site, less hardcore users can enjoy a more simplistic experience on this thread.

And don't get the wrong idea. This new outside site will not replace this RP thread. In fact, being an active member of this thread is highly integral to the new site-to-be.

Trust me when I say this, there is much more in store for this RP, much, much more!

Thank you!

PS: @Dusksong knows a little about where this is going. She can assure you that this is a good thing. But don't ask her too many questions. She is not allowed to talk about any plot sensitive information.
