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.

@Balthazar007 I have a question that should've been asked long ago, but in your first post as the professor you said out starter pokemon can be caught in different parts of the region, Is that still true, are we still able to find pokemon like Piplup and Chimchar elsewhere? Or are they unavailable in the RP after we made that choice? I'm not regretting their choice it just would be nice to have a water or fire-type eventually.


Yes, all Pokemon will be available in this RP: starters, Legendaries, Ultra-Beasts.

It's just about being in the right place at the right time.
@Balthazar007 It's due to the early time they leave in the morning. Dan usually rises earliest in the morning anyway, and I wanted every character to have time to get ready and meet Margo in the center lobby.


I wasn't complaining, no need to explain anything. I was just wondering how Indy would react to being woken that early. Haha!
@iKatamalicious@TheForgottenArc@prettydrops

I like the dialogue and character building between Indy and Dan. They really feel like old buddies now.

I've updated the timeline in the first IC post to reflect Dan's 5:20AM happenings. But dang 5:20AM!? Something tells me Indy isn't THAT much of a morning person. Lol

And @iKatamalicious, in your hider, you only have your Pokemon listed by thier nicknames. Could you also include their Pokemon species name? For example, I can't remember what kind of Pokemon Wulford was. This is just a humble request, not a requirement.

Thank you all for keeping this RP running in my absence. I have a IC post in mind that I'm working on now. It should be up within an hour.
Sorry I haven't had the chance to jump on here over the last couple days. I've been pulling doubles at work every day for the last three days. And I've been super focused on wrapping up my novel. 3 chapters to go and I'll be done... with the 1st draft.
@TheForgottenArc

I read your latest IC post and moved the timeline two hours accordingly. Congrats on the evolution. Also, remember to post your Pokemon's level growths somewhere, either in a hider at the bottom of IC posts like prettydrops does OR in Daniel's character sheet.

I'm not keeping track of levels anymore, but you should. :)
Oh jeez, I thought you dropped this. I just now realized that you added to the first post! Aaaa, I'm sorry ;A; please continue!


I'm actually on a roll with the novel I'm editing. If I hit a writer's block there, I'll switch to this.
@prettydrops@TheForgottenArc@iKatamalicious

I squeezed in a very basic short post before bed time, so as not to hold anyone up any longer.
"Well, everything seems to be in order! They're not fighting and you even got Boo to take his nap! Well done, boys. I think you deserve a bonus." The old man pulled out a regular cell phone, an early generation smartphone to be exact. "Now then, I'm going to up the dollar award from $15 to $20! And I'm going to give you a great review for your job well done too, that way they give you more Poke Dollars... Let's see........ And..." He pressed a button to finalize the transaction. A soft ding signaled success. "Done! Thank you boys so much!"


Seconds after the man's smart phone signaled completion, the same DING came from both Dan's and Indy's Pokedex.

"Oh wow, that was fast." The old man said, genuinely surprised.

Upon checking their Pokedexes, Dan and Indigo found that their job had been ranked as "Class D" (the lowest rank possible). This earned them only ₽2, but next to that that was a multiplier of 5 (for the 5 star review left by the old man). The end total was an even ₽10 for each!
Well I would’ve had her battle Zvi tbh but he’s probably way too strong. I had thought about having her battle a trainer but I was just going to have her train her Pokémon once more after hanging out on Mt Leeman and sketching / painting some of the nature views maybe she’ll give it to Dans mom when she realizes the others are giving her a gift.


You can have her do whatever you like. It's up to you. And she wouldn't necessarily loose to Zvi. He'd be using his two strong Pokemon (Noctowl and Sudowoodo), but she could win if she used all of her Pokemon. It's however you feel.

...
"Well, everything seems to be in order! They're not fighting and you even got Boo to take his nap! Well done, boys. I think you deserve a bonus. Now then, that's $20 for each of you, and the amount of poke currency should be..."


Sorry, I wasn't clear on HOW PokeCurrency would be awarded. PokeCurrency is awarded automatically by the Poke Corp (The Corporation that makes all Pokemon Items in Septoh... including the Pokedex).

All the man has to do is mark the mission as complete on his smartphone or other device with internet access. This is assuming he's not a trainer himself. He would have an App for posting missions for trainers to find. If he IS an active trainer, he would do this on his Pokedex.

To make things easy this time, you could change the ending paragraph of your post to look like this:

...
"Well, everything seems to be in order! They're not fighting and you even got Boo to take his nap! Well done, boys. I think you deserve a bonus."

A soft ding signaled success. "Done! Thank you boys so much!"


I'll then reply with a post revealing how much Poke Money they earned.
hope the post is okay! i'd push the timeline forward by about 30 minutes. im thinking maybe the old man got held up at the store or something, so he doesn't have to come back yet either. ill probably wrap up the search in the next post, if that's okay.


I'm going with 20 minutes, if that's okay.
