Bio

This is my second profile on here, and I have been Play-By-Post RPing for about nine years now. I do my best to see every RP to the end or at least let my character come to his/her own dramatic conclusion when I feel like signing off. Just like novel writing in real life, I tend to find myself on long hiatuses. Since writing is a great way to work out your brain, I try stay engaged as much as possible. 

My favorite genres include futuristic worlds, mysteries, and super powers. Any mixture of these three elements will peek my interest.

   Pokemon: New World 2.0 (IC)   

"Pokemon: New World" exists within an alternate reality completely separate from Ash Ketchum and his legacy. Companies such as "Silph Co." have long since been absorbed by the conglomerate known only as "Poke Corp." This company now oversees all aspects of Pokemon technology. They are a true monopoly in the field of Pokemon. Lucky for us, they are quite benevolent (or so it would seem).

Life is good here. Poverty has all but vanished from the face of the planet. That doesn't mean that money is no longer a factor. On the contrary, there are two types of currency still present in this world: Coins and Trainer Points. All basic housing, food, and other essentials are provided for free by the governments of the world, but in order to live a life beyond easy survival, you must choose one of two paths. 

One, you can work a regular job and earn coins, which are used to purchase higher quality food, housing, and basically everything besides what you can buy with Trainer Points. Your second option is to register with "Poke Corp." as a trainer and receive your very own Pokedex. Trainer Points will be uploaded onto your Pokedex whenever they are earned. These points are used to purchase items from Poke Marts, such as Poke Balls, Battle Items, and more. It is also important to note that simply having a Pokedex will grant you entry into practically all "Poke Corp" facilities, such as the Poke Marts and Pokemon Centers.

So what's it like to be a trainer? Surely it's filled with peril at every turn, right? Not necessarily. While it is natural to come across abnormal situations in the Pokemon world, you do not have to choose a dangerous path. You can pursue beautiful Pokemon Contests. You can join a scientific research team. You can even wander around the world freely, sight-seeing. There is no reason to be battling at every turn. However, the thrill of battle can be quite exhilarating. For those that enjoy this thrill, you can hone your skills in battle leagues, defeating gym after gym. Or you can take on exciting missions to protect innocent civilians and Pokemon in need. 

The most important thing to remember here is that you are free. You can choose whatever path you like, do whatever it is your heart desires... But be careful. There are those in this world who are not interested in playing nice. 

NOTE: Chapter 1 - 3 summarize everything that happened in the old thread for this RP.

A new generation of trainers start out their journey. They learn the basics of being a trainer and make new friends in the process. Some go their own way, exploring the vast Pokemon world and coming to terms with harsh realities. Others set off in groups. Our largest group ends up in the cutesy, creepy town of Feyhollow. There, they find that things are not quite as they seem, encountering spellbinding Pokemon, evil Pokemon poachers, and many more mysteries. 

With just a taste of what's to come, will our new heroes be up to the challenges that lie ahead?

NOTE: Chapter 1 - 3 summarize everything that happened in the old thread for this RP.

As time marches on, so too must our trainers. For most, the next stop is the ever so quite town of Stillwater. There, a mysterious force is at work in the form of an mischievous Darkrai. Trapped in a dream world, our heroes must overcome their darkest sides of themselves. Elsewhere other trainers must deal with some interesting situations of their own including an over active Porygon-Z in Zypher Strip, a rogue Darmanitan in Ironforge, and a rampaging Entei in Tefan Village. 

Little is known as to why these Pokemon are all starting to act up at the same time... coincidence? Or could it be something more?

NOTE: Chapter 1 - 3 summarize everything that happened in the old thread for this RP.

Just as things seem to be calming down, a mysterious earthquake rocks the entire world, baffling scientists everywhere. Trainers everywhere set out to find clues behind this great mystery. In search of knowledge, many new adventures unfold. Stillwater is swarmed by some very agitated Unowns, who create a pocket dimension to everyone's dismay. In Greenhaven, a young trainer has to find his way out of an unexpected cave-in. Back in Feyhollow, the poachers are back to their old tricks, and manage to steal one of our heroe's Chikorita. This also brings about the discovery of a new organization dubbed "The Causality", a group dedicated to punishing unworthy trainers. And in Tefan Village, a mysterious man proudly admits to provoking Entei's previous rampage. Before escaping, he reveals his mad goal, to rid the world of the "blight" that is humanity through the use of Legendary Pokemon. 

Could this man and his Exadrill have any connection to the earthquake or any of the other strange happenings? Nothing is for sure yet, so stay tuned...

Chapter 4 marks the beginning of this new thread "Pokemon: New World 2.0" Not enough has happened to justify a chapter summary. Jump in and join the adventure!


   Locations:   

Our world can grow infinitely. All it takes is users willing to create new locations. To create a location, you need to spend 25 CP. PM ... with your area concept to get it approved. But first, you need to know some basics. 

There are currently SEVEN types of special buildings that can be located inside of any location. Poke Centers: These buildings revive Pokemon, hand out free Potions & other Out of Battle healing items (except for revives), provide free shelter and food to trainers, and house Pokemon PCs for switching up your Pokemon Party. These are owned and operated directly by Poke Corp. and do not need a trainer to open one. 
Poke Marts: These buildings buy and sell Poke Corp items. Each Poke Mart can hold 10 different items in stock. You can have multiple Marts to offer more items or combine them to create one giant Pokemart. These are owned and operated directly by Poke Corp. and do not need a trainer to open one.
Poke Stadiums: These buildings host special events such as battle tournaments/championships and Contest Hall competitions. They also act as Pokemon Centers for their participants while open for an event. These are owned and operated directly by Poke Corp. and do not need a trainer to open one.
Gyms: These buildings house gym leaders that accept challengers. A gym doesn't necessarily have to be a part of a 'Classic Gym League', but usually are. User controlled characters are the gym leaders here, not some AI. A character must be a Skilled trainer at least, in order to build their own gym. 
Labs: Characters can start of their Pokemon journey at these locations, receiving their first Pokedex and Pokeball. Poke Corp's Research and Development Divisions also operate out of these labs.  
Headquarters: These buildings are the gathering places for 'Special Interest Groups.' Each HQ can only host one group. 
Daycare: Each daycare can only house two Pokemon per trainer at a time. Pokemon staying at a daycare will gain two levels per IRL month. This is not combinable with the 3 level boost Pokemon receive for being in your party. These buildings are needed for breeding, as described in the manual.  
Safari Zone: This is a dedicated area of a location where trainers can pay 50 TP to enter. Here you will find three bonus Pokemon-types (i.e. 3 extra types beyond what the location would normally have). After paying the fee, you may buy as many Safari Balls as you like (see the "Item Registry") and then enter. While in a safari zone, you can only use these safari balls; when you run out, you must exit. You cannot buy more safari balls without paying the entry fee again. 
Tutor Center: You will find a bonafide "Move Tutor" in this building. Each Move Tutor can teach up to 5 different tutor moves. Refer to Bulbabedia's "Move Tutor" page to see all the moves that are available. Regardless of generation, if the move is on that page, it can be taught. Once you have chosen your five moves, simply PM @Balthazar007 so that he can attach appropriate prices to the moves. It is the responsibility of the trainers to make sure that their Pokemon is ABLE to learn the move (Look up the move via Bulbapedia, and go to "by move tutor").


As mentioned in the manual, there are 5 types of locations, based off how many people have inhabited the area. Here's a list of what they are and what they contain: Metropolitan: 
— 10 Special Buildings
— 2 Types of Pokemon
— 0 Legendary Pokemon
Mostly Urban: 
— 8 Special Buildings
— 4 Types of Pokemon
— 1 Legendary Pokemon
Developing:
— 6 Special Buildings
— 6 Types of Pokemon
— 2 Legendary Pokemon
Mostly Rural:
— 4 Special Buildings
— 8 Types of Pokemon
— 3 Legendary Pokemon
Wilderness:
— 2 Special Buildings
— 10 Types of Pokemon
— 4 Legendary Pokemon


The same Legendary and Mythical Pokemon can be listed in multiple locations, as long as the location can support their type(s). But since there is only one of each, once it is caught, it is unavailable across all locations.

Name:
[Insert a Picture]
Location Type: (Metropolis, Mostly Urban, Developing, Mostly Rural, Wilderness.)
Pokemon Types: (Depending on the Area Type, choose the number of Pokemon types that can be found in this area)

Lore: (Tell us about the location's past.)

Building #1: (Type of Building and information on who or what is inside. This includes what organization may call it home or what items are sold/bought here.)

Building #2: (Add more buildings below as needed)

Once your location is approved via PM, you can post it into the IC section for the world to see.

Approved Locations

Central City
Feyhollow Town
Atana Mountain Range
Ironforge
Adriana City
Tefan Village
Zypher Strip
Stillwater
Stellanova City
Greenhaven
Clearbrook Mountains

Pokemon: New World 2.0 (OOC)

Hello, stranger! 

Welcome to the humble home of "Pokemon: New World 2.0"! Here, both users and their characters start small and work their way up, exploring and contributing to our IC world as they do. We aim to be an active, friendly community. We hope you join us!

As a writer, you begin with a single character: a trainer starting on their first journey. Whatever their background, whatever their story, they’ve yet to officially own a Pokemon but are about to. Pokedex are available at any Pokemon Lab. Simply find one nearby and receive your character's first Poke Ball as well as a Pokedex. From there, they will be able to catch their first Pokemon and begin their adventure. 

Along their way, they will meet many Pokemon and trainers and travel through many unique, intriguing locations. Their story is their own, able to be crafted, molded, and directed however you see fit. 

You can find all the information you need to get started below in the hiders. Don’t be intimidated by the details. Just trust it. It works. If you have any questions, post them in the OOC section. We don't bite.


Hope to see you soon!
   How to Get Started:   

If you’re a new face around here and are looking to join New World, here’s everything you need to know about making your first character and starting them on their way:

   Familiarize Yourself With the Story   In order to understand this RPs plot, you only need to look in two places. One, check out the 0th post in the IC Section. This section explains where and when this story takes place. You do not have to read all the IC posts before posting; instead simply read through the chapter summaries located within that same 0th IC post. All the important plot points will be there. Two, a little more information can be found within the opening letter at the top of this post.

   Read the Manual:   Okay, we let you off easy with not having to read through all the IC posts. Now we ask a favor of you in turn. Please, read through the manual at least once. Everything you need to know about participating is located in the manual. It may seem like a long read, but we've done our best to consolidate everything into easily understandable little chunks. If you still have any questions, feel free to ask via OOC.

   Create Your First Character:   After reading the manual, you can then go over to the "Characters" tab. There you will find the character sheet outline. You will be allowed one free "Beginner" rank character when starting out. Look to other characters for inspiration if you wish. You don't have to edit your character sheet every single time you earn in-game money or buy an item, but we do ask that you update it once a month or more.

   Begin Writing:   Congratulations, now that you have created your character, he/she is all ready to go. But wait! Don't just start writing like crazy. Make sure every one of your posts have these elements:
1) The name of the character that you are writing as. 
2) The name of the location where your post takes place. 
3) If you are in the middle of a mission, battle, or special event of any other kind, write down its corresponding subtitle. 
4) Then of course, write the body of the post. 
5) Finally, at the bottom of the post, we should find a record of all changes this post caused to your character (e.g. Newly captured Pokemon, earned Trainer Points, Pokemon level gains, inventory updates, etc.) Put this information in a neat hider to help us fight clutter.

In order to avoid double posting, you can post as multiple characters within one post. 

Look to the IC posts of other users to see examples. It's not very difficult and keeps everything neatly organized.

   The Manual:   

These are the official guidelines of our RP. If any content within this manual changes significantly, we will update everyone via 'OOC'. Be sure to check this manual if you have any questions, but if your questions remain, feel free to voice them OOC.

   How Our Pace Works:   We've all been there. You join an RP, only to find that it's moving way too fast or way too slow. Here is our solution...

Real-World Time
The time of day within this RP world is loosely based on real time. Each real life month makes up one day or night cycle. This back and forth battle between day and night is the only frame of time enforced in this RP. Exact hours can be mentioned, but don't matter and generally just cause confusion.

Breaking News!:
From time to time, a writing prompt can be helpful. When that time comes, @Balthazar007 or a Co-GM may release a "Breaking News!" update. This is an IC post that we DO NOT earn CP for creating. This is simply a great means for helping the plot along. If everyone is doing fine making up their own story-lines, these news updates will be scarce. If things are moving slowly, these will be more frequent.


NEVER post multiple times in a row. At least one other person must post before you can again. If you can find a writing buddy or a small group that you can count on logging in at the same times, you can all post very quickly!

   The Honor System at Work:   Moderators do not keep track of everyone's earning and spending of TP, inventory changes, or Pokemon teams (to be discussed in upcoming sections). As mentioned in 'Step 4' of 'Getting Started', you should inserting a hider at the bottom of each post in order to keep track of these updates. 

Moderators will be on the look out for suspicious activity. If anyone is thought to be purposefully cheating, they will be investigated. It it is blatantly true, you may be banned from this RP and possibly reported to the guild's Global Moderators. If it seems like an honest mistake, you may suffer a warning and a penalty (at the moderators' discretion).

   The Basics of Trainer Points:   As mentioned in the 0th IC post, Trainer Points are the trainers' currency in this RP. They are far more important than Coins. In fact, coins are just for flavor and a little extra realism; you don't even HAVE to explain where your character's coins come from. 

As mentioned in the welcoming letter of this post, Trainer Points (TP) are a digital currency inside of your Pokedex. They are used in Poke Marts and earned in a variety of ways. 

Each location will have a Poke Mart at the bottom of its description. There you will find a list of the items that Mart keeps in stock. In order to buy an item from the Mart, simply deduct the TP cost and add your new item. In order to sell items to the Mart, simply add 50% of the item's listed cost back to your character's TP and remove the item(s) from your inventory. Again, keep track of this in the hider at the bottom of your IC post.

The same methods can be used to sell items from user-to-user. In that scenario, the seller and buyer can negotiate prices instead of using the Poke Mart listed price.

There will be more details on "Items" in a later section.


There are numerous ways to earn TP:

Every time you post IC, your character earns one TP.
Your first IC post of each month earns your character 5 TP instead of 1 TP.
Each type of organization has its own unique way of awarding TP.
TP can transfer user-to-user in the form of gifts, selling items, or 'battle wagers' (later section).

   Advance Pokeballs:   Pokeballs in this dimension are much more advanced than in the show/games. To heal a Pokemon with this feature, simply hold down the button on the Pokeball for 10 seconds. The Pokeball will then become un-openable for 20 IC minutes. This does NOT revive fainted Pokemon however. You will need to visit a Poke Center or buy the 'revive' item. 

The actual reasoning behind the "locking" of your Pokemon for 15 minutes is simple. This adds logical sense to the fact that you cannot heal a Pokemon during a PvP Pokemon Showdown battle. Since most Showdown battles will last way less time than 20 minutes.

   Your Pokemon Team:   This is a very a very broad subject and the heart of any Pokemon role play to be honest. Speaking of honesty, before you open any of the following hiders, remember one thing. You are required to abide by the "Honor System" at all times when catching new Pokemon, leveling them up, or evolving. We're trusting you with managing your own characters, so please don't violate that trust.

This game will include every single Pokemon that is playable in main series games. I recommend using these sites: The Pokemon Database or The Official Pokemon Website. Whenever one of these sites updates it's Pokedex, this RP will also recognize those Pokemon. 

Each location plays host to different combinations of Pokemon types. You can find all Pokemon, from any generation, within a location as long as its type(s) is/are covered. The only exception to this is Legendary/Mythical Pokemon. More on legendary Pokemon in a later section.
Your Pokemon Party is comprised of the Pokemon that you are able to carry on you at one time. At first this number is six. Any Pokemon that you cannot carry with you must be transferred to your trainer's PC via your Pokedex's teleportation feature. This only works one way, from the Pokedex to the PC. You'll have to visit a Pokemon Center to access your PC and retrieve Pokemon.
There are four different tiers of Pokemon based on their evolution chain. This is also how we find out which Pokeballs can catch which Pokemon:

Tier 4: Pokemon in this tier are base forms of Pokemon that can evolve. Tier 4 Pokemon start at level one and are caught by Pokeballs or better.  

Tier 3: Pokemon in this tier are either the first evolution of Pokemon that can evolve twice or Pokemon that don't evolve at all. (This does not include Ultra Beasts.) Tier 3 Pokemon start at whatever level they would have normally evolved. If they are a Pokemon that does not evolve, their starting level is 30. They are caught with a Great Ball or better.

Tier 2: Pokemon in this tier are Pokemon that have evolved into their final stage. If no level is specified (like in cases where the Pokemon evolves with an evolutionary stone), their starting level is 45. Tier 2 Pokemon start at whatever level they would have normally evolved and are caught with an Ultra Ball or better. Tier 2 also includes Ultra Beasts that are caught at level 50. (Ultra Beasts can only be caught with a Master Ball or Beast Ball.)

Tier 1: Pokemon in this tier are either Legendary or Mythical Pokemon. Tier 1 Pokemon start at level 70 and are caught using a Master Ball; there are two exceptions. The first is Cosmog, being caught at level 1 (caught with Great Ball).
 The second is Silvally, who must be caught as "Type: Null" at level 10 (caught with an Ultra Ball).
Legendary/Mythical Pride: Legendary and Mythical Pokemon will not go into a PC or stay at a daycare. They must be carried in your party or released to the wild.
There are many different ways to level up a Pokemon.

Pokemon can gain one level by having a battle with a wild Pokemon.
Pokemon can gain two levels by participating in a PvP battle.
All Pokemon left at a daycare at the time of your first IC post in an IRL month will gain two levels. This cannot be combined with the Pokemon party condition below.
All the Pokemon in your party at the time of your first IC post in an IRL month will gain three levels. This cannot be combined with the Pokemon daycare condition above.
Pokemon may gain levels from the item called "Rare Candy".
Pokemon may gain levels through special conditions from special Pokeballs or Special Items.
Evolution:All Pokemon evolve through levelling up in this RP. Check their Bulbapedia page to find out the level they can evolve. If they would normally evolve through special means only, then they will evolve at the following levels:

Tier 4 to Tier 3: Evolve at level 15

Tier 4 to Tier 2: Evolve at level 30

Tier 3 to Tier 2: Evolve at level 45

Pokemon with Evolution Trees: If a Pokemon has a split in their evolutionary tree, you may choose which evolution they will transform. Provide some realism by having your environment or situation be the apparent reason behind the Pokemon's evolution result.

You MAY choose to stop a Pokemon from evolving simply by recalling your Pokemon to it's Pokeball. It will naturally try to evolve every time it levels up from then on, and you will have to repeat this process until you are ready for the Pokemon to evolve. The main reason why you would want to stop a Pokemon from evolving is because your trainer rank would be too low to control a higher tier Pokemon.
Simply approach another trainer in the IC thread. And talk to them about trading Pokemon. Once you two have decided on a fair trade, go for it! But remember, if you receive a Pokemon through trade and it's tier is too high, it won't obey, and your character can't use it to battle.

   Unleash Your Imagination:   There are five different types of content that users can create: Characters, Organizations, Items, Missions, and Locations. Characters are quite obvious, and more information on them will be provided in the "Characters" section of the RP. The hiders below give a quick summary on the four others. But first, we must introduce one important feature: Creation Points. 

Creation Points (CP) are spent any time you wish to create content. Every time you post IC, you will earn 1 CP. You may want to help keep track of this stat, but it is the one and only statistic that moderators monitor directly. At the bottom of this post lies a list of our users. This is where we periodically update each user's CP count. 

Now, on to the four other types of user created content besides characters:

Why do people join organizations? The answer is simple. Together, people can accomplish more. Without these, characters would simply wander around the world without any true goals. There are four main types of Organizations available to join. Characters can join as many organizations as they like, but don't overwhelm yourself:

1) Special Interest Groups: Purpose - Taking on missions
2) Organized Battle Leagues: Purpose - Strengthening your Pokemon
3) Pokemon Contest Associations: Purpose - Entertaining the masses
4) Research & Development Institution: Purpose - Creating new items for the world.

Organizations are submitted in the "Characters" section of the site. After all, they are just groups of characters in the end. More detailed information on organizations can be found there.

'Items' is such broad term. There are many different types of items. "New World 2.0" includes nearly all items found within the Pokemon games and more. Items are made by the GM @balthazar007, but anyone may PM with special requests. More information on items is located at the bottom of this 0th OOC post.

Missions are a great source of income. You will have to join a 'Special Interest Group' in order to gain access to missions though. The general public or private individuals (depending on the group) hire them to complete missions. To start a mission, your character or someone else's must claim the mission. That makes that character the mission captain. Others can join, if the mission captain agrees. More information on missions can be found in the 0th "Character's" post.

Each and every location hosts different types of Pokemon, has different items available in its Poke Marts, and a few other differences. A locations can be one of five kinds:
Metropolitan
Largely Urban
Developing
Mostly Rural
Wilderness

More information regarding locations can be found in the 0th IC post.

   How to Battle:   Battling is a long time tradition in the Pokemon world, but to make it work in this play-by-post setting, some changes had to be made. These are our guidelines on battles:

There are two types of battles: Competitive & Freindly: 
Competitive battles take place when there is something on the line. This can be two trainers that agree to wager TPs or items. This also includes battles within "Official Battle Leagues". When a battle is competitive, we will be using Pokemon Showdown.
Friendly Battles are just for fun; there is nothing to lose. You can even opt out of using Pokemon Showdown.

Competitive: When a battle is competitive, both participants must agree on what they are wagering; in league battles, this is usually decided for you. Both users should put a hider containing the same information, thus documenting whatever wager is agreed upon. Then both sides will agree to use one "Subtitle" for all IC posts involving the battle (e.g. "Character ABC vs. Character XYZ).
Friendly: Skip everything about wagering mentioned above. Only abide by the choosing a name for the battle part.

IMPORTANT: All battles, unless otherwise stated, take place in the 'Anything Goes' format. Build your teams accordingly.Competitive:Part 1: When building your team on Pokemon Showdown, be sure to match your Pokemon's level and held items to your character here in the Role Play. Then choose your move set based on what moves your character can learn naturally through leveling up. You can only use TM moves if you've actually purchased that TM within the Role Play. Refer to your Pokemon's Bulbapedia page when building its move set.
Part 2: Tweak your Pokemon's other information however you wish (i.e. Happiness, Ability, and Stats). Then save your Pokemon for later use. Your now ready to battle! Use the 'Find User' button to look for your opponent on there. Obviously, let your opponent know if your Showdown name differs from your name on here.
Friendly: All the information above pertains to using Pokemon Showdown. You CAN use that for friendly battles if you both agree. Other wise, skip this section.

Competitive: Once you've finished the battle via Showdown, go back to the IC section and retell the battle in magnificent glory. Make it seem like the first time it's happening. Take as long as the two of you would like. When you're done, provide a link so that people can watch the replay of your battle. (That's a neat option within Showdown.)
Friendly: If you chose to use Showdown, do exactly as described above. If not, then the two users involved should discuss the battle's outcome privately, via PMs. That way there are no spoilers for anyone reading.

Competitive: Now is the time to pay up if you lost or take your earnings if you win. Do not be ashamed, and do not cheat here. Don't disrespect the 'Honor System'. It's not worth being banned from the RP.
Friendly: So there are no rewards to collect from your fallen opponent. That doesn't mean your time was wasted. All the Pokemon you used will still grow two levels, as long as they haven't battles yet this month (IRL). You also still gained TP and CP for posting.

Battle Leagues can change some of the normal conditions of a battle. Each battle league can be different in this regard. They can change the Pokemon Showdown format. They can effect the awards given out at the end. They can even set requirements on what Pokemon you can and cannot use or how many you use. Be sure to read through all the conditions of a battle league before you join.

   Pokemon Contests:   Similarly to battling there are two different ways to have a Pokemon Contest: Practicing or Competing. 
Practicing: When you're practicing, the two trainers will only need to decide on a subtitle for their contest and agree on whatever their Pokemon should be judged upon. If they want to appoint a judge to decide a winner they can. Otherwise, they can decide among themselves or choose not to declare a winner.
Competing: The process for competing is a bit more formal. First: Decide what your Pokemon should be judged upon (e.g. beauty, power, etc.). Make wagers, like in battling. Determine how many rounds the contest will last and who will go first. And, of course, give your contest a subtitle.
Second: Appoint a judge or multiple judges. This can be any of our Trainers you believe to be unbiased. At the end of each round (or at the conclusion of the contest) judges will give a rating (1-10), based upon the criteria you've agreed to be judged upon.
Third: Decide how much crowd input matters. Crowd input is measured by number of likes your posts get before the contest if declared finished by the judge. You can assign one point to every 'like' OR you can simply use total likes as a tie breaker. There is no way to tell if a like came from one of our Pokemon trainers, so you may try to gather support from users outside our RP; don't annoy anyone about it though.
Fourth: Begin! Post back and forth, trying to describe the most amazing feats that your Pokemon can perform in order to win the competition. A round (as mentioned above) is described as one character's turn and then the other.
Fifth: When all rounds are completed, the judge(s) will then tally up the scores, including the crowd input. Now we have our winner! Exchange rewards as promised, and now we're finished. Viola!

   Breeding & Eggs:   Pokemon Eggs can only be obtained through breeding. To breed two Pokemon, they must both be of the same Egg Group and opposite genders. Genderless Pokemon must breed with Dito. You can find a Pokemon daycare in any location. Simply leave two Pokemon of the same egg group there for 2 IRL months. The resulting egg will hatch out the base form (lv. 1) of the female Pokemon (or the pokemon that is not Dito).
To hatch an egg, place it in the “Pokemon Party” section of a trainer’s status box with a note as to the date being placed there. If you do not want to start hatching the egg right away, simply put it in your inventory. Careful though, putting an egg back into your bag before it has hatched erases all progress. Eggs hatch on the same day you placed them in your party on the next IRL month.
Naturally breeding and hatching an egg takes time, but you may find key items that can speed up this process.
"So why the trouble?", you may ask. For starters, the Pokemon may use moves that only transfer through breeding. We ignore the "who the parent was" catch. But that's not the main reason you'd want to hatch a Pokemon. Pokemon hatched gain levels at double the rate as other Pokemon (this does not apply to Rare Candy). Make sure to mark any Pokemon that have been hatched so that you remember to double their level earnings.
Also, make sure that you subtract a regular Pokeball from your inventory as soon as you can. Otherwise you will have to carry or walk with the new baby Pokemon. And the Pokemon misses out on healing effects of Pokeballs. You could use other beginner level Pokeballs to hold your baby Pokemon, but the effects of those balls will be negated.
If a hatched Pokemon is traded to a new trainer, that Pokemon loses the double gains when leveling up.


   Items:   
Items are divided into two different categories and three different kinds. They are also divided by what level a character needs to be at in order to use them:

Categories:Technology Items - These are items that were created through extensive technological means. 
--- Includes: Pokeballs, TMs (Gen 7), Trinkets, Gadgets, etc.
Nature Items - These are items that are found in nature and have gone through minimal processing. 
--- Includes: Berries, Incense, Fossils, Gems, Orbs


Three Types:
General Items are used outside of battle and are used up in one use.
Special Items are used outside of battle and have limitless number of uses.

All you have to do is visit a Lab within the IC, and PM @Balthazar007, telling him which department your character will be joining.

New Location!!!


Name: Central City

Location Type: Developing
Pokemon Types: Normal, Flying, Bug, Grass, Water, Fire

Lore:
Central city is one of the oldest cities in all the land. Legend has it, this town is home to the first ever Pokemon master. It is also the home to one of the worlds best known retired trainers, Thomas Rikon. Now elderly, Thomas passes his time making a trinket known as the "Battle Amulet"; he does not sell this item, but instead, donates them to the local Poke Mart. The population of this city does not grow very quickly. It's more of a tourist stop than a place to actually settle down. 

The cobblestone streets of Central City stretch out unto fields of beautiful flowers and farm land. These fields are alive with Grass type Pokemon. The city and its surrounding farm lands are always alive with Normal type Pokemon. There is a river that runs from the north, bringing in wonderful array of Water type Pokemon. Surrounding the city on both sides are volcanic mountains with thick forests at their base. The forests host a variety of Bug type Pokemon. On bright sunny days, Fire type Pokemon will emerge from mountain side caves to frolic in the light. Flying type Pokemon typically nest in mountain side trees. 

It is rumored that the mythical Pokemon Shaymin protects this land, keeping it vibrant and beautiful. A hand full of people have claimed to have seen Shaymin, but many believe these sightings to be false. Still, the rumor mill works its magic, bringing in trainers from across the globe hoping for just a sight of this adorable Pokemon. If the Shaymin rumor wasn't enough, there have been a few confirmed Jirachi sightings at night. 


Built within an extravagant old hospital, this Poke Center has a wonderfully preserved outside and a completely modernized inside. It is well suited to host many trainers at once.

Located in the heart of Central City, you will find the town's quaint Poke Mart. While the inside has been completely refurbished to match the sleek styling of Poke Corp, the outside retains it's historical value and cozy charm.
Refer to the "Item Registry" for prices and item information.

This gigantic work of art rests on the northern end of town. Its construction was Thomas Rikon's last hurrah with his Pokemon, before he released them all. The townspeople gathered around and watched in awe as his army of Pokemon finished the job in less than a day, starting just before the break of dawn and finishing before midnight. The stadium was open the very next day for its first event, an extravagant festival to honor Thomas's Pokemon and wave them goodbye. 

On the east side of town lies an empty gym. It is said that Thomas Rikon ran this gym in his later years as a Pokemon trainer. It is has been well preserved over the years, awaiting a new gym leader.

This sleek building on the outskirts of town was constructed by Poke Corp. No particular 'Research & Development Institution' currently claims it as home, leaving the entire second floor vacant. The first floor is dedicated to general research and starting young trainers off on their journeys.

The headquarters for the Helping Hands Guild is a lively place. Trainers and non-trainers alike wander the halls, socializing, sharing stories. There are only a few calm hours, late at night, when most people are sleeping. But even then, there is always a friendly 24-7 desk clerk ready to register new trainers and answer all questions.

@Zarkun

Awesome! Actually I remembered that Dusksong and I have a Discord direct chat going. So I reached out. It's all good. She's cool with me copy and pasting. With that shortcut, I'll have everything done by the end of today or sometime tomorrow at the latest. 

In Pokemon: New World → 7 yrs ago Forum: Casual Roleplay

Hey everyone! 

I just remembered something. Silly me. 

Dusksong already took all the information that I was going to use on a stand alone site and created another RP within the roleplayer guild. This is the link to it: LINK.

I'd like to use that thread's content (maybe just dial it back a bit and make it more focused). All the ideas that I've ever had are neatly put together there. Unfortunately, all of Dusksong's work on it is located in the 1st OOC post instead of the 0th OOC post. This means only she can edit it. This leaves us with two options. 

1) We wait for Dusksong to come back online, before making any decisions. She hasn't logged in for 14 days (as of the time of this post). 

2) I copy and paste all of her work and build a new RP off of it. Technically, she copied it from me first  from my stand alone site (with my permission of course), so I doubt she would mind. 

What do you all think?

In Pokemon: New World → 7 yrs ago Forum: Casual Roleplay

Primarily the only type moves. Pokemon learn tons of moves, even if they don't match the type, and denying them that move feels wrong.@Zarkun

I know the off-site version of this RP never took off (my fault). But I would like to refer to a section on there that addresses your issue. Click this ---> LINK

That is closer to how I'm looking at doing things now. 

In Pokemon: New World → 7 yrs ago Forum: Casual Roleplay

Oh... there is a 2 Co-GM limit. I already have Dusksong and LuckyBlackCat already volunteered. Zarkun, do you mind helping LuckyBlackCat by proxy? 

In Pokemon: New World → 7 yrs ago Forum: Casual Roleplay

<Snipped quote by Balthazar007>

I think we kinda did in the battles, I know in the one PvP battle I did with BlackCat, we used only type moves. But, it didn't feel right. I understand the purpose behind it, but it feels...I don't know how to say it other than wrong.@Zarkun

Using Pokemon Showdown felt wrong in general? Or using only type moves felt wrong?

Also, I've created a 0th post for the IC section. I wrote in a general Plot overview, but I need help filling out the Chapters that will be contained within hiders. That's where all you come in. Can you all please summarize any major plot points that have happened since the inception of this site. I know it is a daunting memory exercise, but don't sweat the small details. You can break it into multiple "Chapters" or condense it all into the "Chapter 1" hider. At this point it is more your story than mine. So you all can do as you like. @Zarkun@dusksong@LuckyBlackCat

Pokemon: New World

"Pokemon: New World" exists within an alternate reality, three hundred years after the era of Ash Ketchum and his legacy. "Silph Co." and related companies have long since been absorbed by the conglomerate known only as "Poke Corp." This company now oversees all aspects of Pokemon technology. They produce the Poke Balls. They run the Poke Centers and Poke Marts. They have multiple television channels broadcasting gym battles, contests, reality T.V. shows, Pokemon related news, and much more. They are a true monopoly in the field of Pokemon. Lucky for us, they are quite benevolent (or so it would seem).

Life is much better now than it was in the past. Poverty has all but vanished from the face of the planet. That doesn't mean that money is no longer a factor. On the contrary, there are two types of currency still present in this world: Coins and Trainer Points. It is true that all basic housing, food, and other essentials are provided for free by the governments of the world, but in order to live beyond that easy survival mode you must choose one of two paths. 

One, you can work a regular job and earn coins, which are used to purchase higher quality food, housing, and basically everything besides what you can buy with Trainer Points. Your second option is to register with "Poke Corp." as a trainer and receive your very own Pokedex. Trainer Points will be uploaded onto your Pokedex whenever they are earned. These trainer points are used to purchase items from Poke Marts, such as Poke Balls, Battle Items, and more. It is also important to note that simply having a Pokedex will grant you entry into practically all "Poke Corp" facilities, such as the Poke Marts themselves. 

So what's it like to be a trainer? Surely, it's filled with peril at every turn, right? Not necessarily. While it is natural to come across abnormal situations in the Pokemon world, you do not have to choose a dangerous path. You can pursue beautiful Pokemon Contests. You can join a scientific research team. You can even wander around the world freely, sight seeing. There is no reason to be battling at every turn. However, the thrill of battle can be quite exhilarating. For those that enjoy this thrill, you can hone your skills in battle leagues, defeating gym after gym. Or you can take on exciting missions to protect innocent civilians and Pokemon in need. 

The most important thing to remember here is that you are free. You can choose whatever path you like, do whatever it is your heart desires... just be careful. There are those in this world that are not interested in playing nice.

You got it! I'm working hard as we speak and loving every minute of it. 

I have a related question for you all though. Did anyone in this RP try to PvP battle using the Pokemon Showdown method? If so, how did that feel? If not, why didn't anyone use it? 

Similarly, has anyone used Pokemon Showdown in other RPs? How did that work out?
