@Delta44 Tell ya what, if nobody has spoken to you (and you haven't initiated contact yourself) yet after the last character arrives, I've got something special up my sleeve while we wait for Kalmia. A side-thing produced by something I've planned anyway.

By the way, I do not intend on Kalmia appearing just yet. I intend the characters to get to know one another just a tad little bit beforehand. Haha.

@Pyromaniacwolf Nicely posted. And yupp, Pureplain is that kind of place. Nice, eh? Don't worry about the post being short, this is Casual. Those people *points at long posts* should know they're doing more than expected and intended.

Though, can you make your font-color just a little bit brighter? I’m having trouble reading that dark red.

@Lasrever Staying up late the night before getting a Pokémon for your Pokémon journey to watch action-movies…? XD … Well, suppose you won’t be able to watch them for a while. Haha. Nicely posted. “With all the grace and subtlety of a charging Tauros” made me laugh. Thank you.

@Pikmin Eye Yupp. That does everything it needs to do. Your analysis of Pureplain is accurate. Well posted.

... But you really don't need to keep up with these Advanced players! Casual will do! XD

@Eklispe Awww, how sweet of them to prepare a party to celebrate their big bro finally going out and choosing his own adventure. … How not sweet of them to not keep track of time and make him late to said adventure, but still. Nicely posted. XD

And yes, we got that sweet pkmn storage system.

@Rune_Alchemist Primary contact has been established. Teh-heh. Well posted.

Now, then. Lesse. Claire is sitting on a bench leaning against a wall in a way that doesn’t match the posts of those that come after (EH! DETAILS! XD), and she has been greeted by Erika and Reiji.

Lucian placed himself on a distance after having confirmed that the door was locked, but has now been shouted to by Abigail. Abigail, assumingly, greeted the group of three above and then spoke to Lucian.

Martin came in and introduced himself to a group of people. Given previous information, I’ll assume the group of people is Claire, Erika, Reiji and Abigail, the latter who first went to say hi and then yelled to Lucian.

Dawkin stands around and listens. Claire responded to the two who spoke directly to her. Yupp. Those who intend to engage in conversation are encouraged to speak directly to someone. Haha.

And then Ren’s still sitting on the bench over there and nobody so far has spoken to her. Guess that Max Repel was really effective, huh.

Pokémon: Start

@Delta44 Quite the trip you’ve been on. Yupp, I like this. Teh-heh, imagining future potential relations with others is always fun. Don’t worry. Kalmia will be right there, she’s just to stop oversleeping first~ Haha.

And that song ended PERFECTLY, EXACTLY when I was finished reading your post. Was that intentional? It felt weirdly magical...! XD

@Pirouette Oh, my. I didn’t imagine you’d actually START the day in Cooldome City. You know, THAT’S KINDA FAR. I’D HAVE BEEN WORRIED, TOO. XD

Transport methods like cars are now Ruby Sapphire style. They exist to take the players to their starting location, and then they mysteriously vanish. This works excellently. Nicely posted.

@Keyblade87 I told earlier that your posts can be as long as you want them to! In fact, those guys will have to make their posts shorter in the future to not look like Advanced! XD

Your post is absolutely fine. Kids be excited. Well posted. Looks like Claire’s getting some attention first, huh. Teh-heh.

@Delta44 Uuuuuuuuuuh-huh. ... Let's keep bush-bashing with trucks filled with people's property and actual people sitting inside the cargo-hold of the truck to a minimum. It sounds extremely unhealthy. XD

Pokémon: Start

@Delta44 I am incredibly aware of that truck and I am also incredibly aware that there are no roads that truck could have reasonably driven on in order to reach Littleroot Town. It's rather baffling, really.

Pokémon: Start

@Delta44 Yeah, um, I prefer as few methods of modern transportation as possible in my Pokémon worlds. I realize this makes thinking about transportation of goods hard, buuuuut... EH! XD

Pokémon: Start

@Delta44 Er. I didn't imagine Isson with trains, I must admit. If there were, they'd likely heading north to go past Mt. Strength via the Bigfjord route to Worldedge, and then down to Raremine from Worldedge, perhaps a route through Mt. Edge that went to Justroad... ... ...

Instead of considering a theoretical train-route, may I ask why you're wondering?

Pokémon: Start

@Rune_Alchemist Oh, wait. Now that I'm not in a hurry anymore, I read that more carefully. The door is locked, you were to gather IN FRONT of the building, you can't get in unless you're infiltrating through a window or something. My apologies if I was unclear about that.

Pokémon: Start

@Rune_Alchemist Excellent post. I feel I have been given an ample show of how her life up until now has been conducted.

... That said, everyone else, do not let this set the standard. A few of these will intimidate everyone. This is Casual! I don't expect you to post that long posts! The first post is allowed to be as long as you wish (it's an important introductory post, after all), but in the future do adhere to the standards of the current forum. The only one putting excessive life-affecting effort into this should be me! XD

Though, I am a fan of letting people do as they wish, so don't let those words of mine put too much of a limit on you if you feel you need to write a lot or want to write a lot. Just keep it in mind.

@Pyromaniacwolf@Pink Madness Do I spy, with my little eye... Two trainers from Goldenrod City? ... _{I command thee to know one another! Doesn't have to be very close, but at least know the other's name and face through any sort of connection! XD}

@Pink Madness *cough* Nevermind that. Let's see. So, your father studied to become a researcher in Isson, where he likely met Kalmia in a similar stage of development. This sounds likely. Totally acceptable.

So, beyond that, I must ask you to make some minor adjustments. Firstly, your Pokémon won't come with any held items, and you start with only a potion. Don't worry, we'll handle that in due time. Also, please add Vulpix's type in a field right below gender. We all know Vulpix is fire-type, but for the sake of completion.

Besides that, completely acceptable! With those adjustments, Donna is preemptively accepted~ Not like the items is going to impact anything within the next couple of days, anyway~!

Therefore.

With the last player in, this roleplay is finally free to commence! You may post your first post and start your interactions now! The IC is now OPEN~!
