  1. Welcome to the wonderful World of Pokemon!

    You and your group have finally done it! You fought your way through the 8 gym leaders of the Sinnoh region and gave it your best shot in the Pokemon League Tournament! Whether you did a great job and put up a good fight, or fell flat on your face after losing your first battle, the journey and people you met along the way will always hold a special place in your heart.

    With the satisfaction and pride of conquering Sinnoh fresh on your minds, you and your group decide to take a little time to yourselves and relax before deciding where to go next.


    Unfortunately, your R&R is cut short as you catch wind of a mysterious Pokemon festival taking place next week in the next region over: Unova

    It is said that the festival will have a great deal of food, games, and contests for every type of Pokemon lover. So whether your a trainer looking to compete in a tournament, or you just want to grab a bite to eat and meet some new people, this festival has something for everyone!

    Needless to say, It took little time for you and your group to decide to set off in search for this mysterious festival.


    As you and your group begin to gather their things, a feeling of danger and uneasiness settles over you -- almost as though you aren't meant to ever step foot into this new region. The feeling lasts for only a moment, then dissipates. You aren't sure, but whatever that feeling was, it wasn't gonna stop you from getting to the festival and moving on to conquer yet another region!

    Some Rules and Regualtions


    1. This is going to be a fun, yet serious Roleplay. That being said, it is very hard to continue a Roleplay when you have those who only post a couple sentences or only post once in a great while. Just stay active and post good, quality responses. Your responses don't have to be painfully long, but make them a decent length. A paragraph, 4-7 sentences long, is the minimum requirement

    2. Almost any Pokemon, from Gen V or before, is allowed. The only Pokemon that aren't allowed to be owned or used are Legendary, Mythical, and Mega-Evolved Pokemon.

    3. You are allowed to have the same Pokemon that someone else has, but make sure they differ in personality! Two identical Pokemon trained separately are boring. Make your Pokemon unique! They are characters too.

    4. You have the choice whether to walk with your Pokemon or keep them in their respective balls. I personally prefer to walk with my Pokemon, but that decision is yours!

    5. I want the Roleplayers to have some hand in the story design, but I make the final decisions, and I also have the last say.

    6. There will most likely be sexual content and mature language only fit for those that are 18 and older (hence this Roleplay being under libertine.) There are no restrictions on this. Just be mature and tasteful if you chose to take a post or encounter in that direction.

    7. This is a Roleplay that does have some ties to reality. You and your Pokemon are not superhuman or unbeatable. A Roleplay can get very boring, and sometimes frustrating, if there is someone who thinks they are a god and aren't able to be defeated. Obviously if your Charizard goes up against Mew 2, more times then not, your gonna get your ass kicked. Be sensible in the situations your presented with be and open to defeat. Sometimes, being beaten can add a really cool spin to a character or Roleplay as a whole.

    Everything else you already know, such as god-modding and all that. Hope you have fun and welcome to the Roleplay! :)​

I'll get a post up tomorrow or Wednesday. My wrist is feeling a bit better and as long as I don't push it, I can post a bit.

I'll just have Kamon crush a scrub in the morning, someone who recognizes him and wants to battle.

Otherwise Akito reintroduction is in Restless hands
 
I had a question, why can't we handle the Pokemon battles in Pokemon Showdown? And just write the pretty text for the RP. Pokemonw Showdown would be the results of the battle, but then we'd reinterpret what happened in the RP?

Showdown!
 
While I find it more fun to text it out for some wacky bollocks like improvising moves in a special way that game mechanics would make impossible...

... Showdown is showtime.

I'll go make my Risk team for the sake of it, now that you mention it.
 
What's showdown? ov o

Also egads Kamon is going to crush people. o. o
 
The link's there. It's a fun way to test Pokeman teams.
 
The GM said nothing about such. Clyde is merely offering it as a suggestion for battles to come.

Malamar is going to suck when placed in this situation
 
Oh. Okay. ov o

Since Miyu's method of...battling..um, isn't fair, per say. o .o

Since she isn't much of a trainer.

More survival.

And mostly just her Pokemon acting on their own. Sort of.

Also it seems confusing and I'd rather avoid signing up for things I don't need to.

You actually don't need to sign up. They allow anyone to come in as a guest account. But honestly it's just a username and a password. They require no other information.
 
Besides I already have Kamon's team built in Showdown and makes battles easier. So we don't have to worry so much about EVs and IVs when the time comes. I mean I am more than willing to write my own stats......


but this would be simpler and easier


and Kamon doesn't crush people, only scrubs

Actually fun fact I made someone with a troll account who was running nothing but Gengars with Perish Song and Destiny Bond quit with Kamon's team and my team isn't all that broke

True. But thats still more passwords and stuff to worry about. o. o

Also Miyu's pokemon don't fight fair. o. o

You made an account for Iwaku didn't you?

The irony is strong

edit-

And the point is in Showdown there is a chatbox. It be like writing a collab post. The Showdown battle just makes it easier on us. But in the text of the RP we'd right whatever flair we like.
 
For full on battles showdown would be best, I say we should use it but I'll defer to Restless in this case. Unfair fights or quickly ended fights will be handled in the RP if we do go this route.

and that's why Kamon is going to go crush a scrub
 
Well my post didn't quite go as according to crushing scrubs, but my Sheet is on Page 2 and I added 2 Alternative Outfits and if no one is bumping into him in the next posting round, I'd be heading to the Pokemon Center for Wizard the Slowking.

I'd also mention that since no one was around I went ahead and did all the dialogue for the Pokemon from how Kamon can hear them and his perspective. But whenever Kamon is around Claude or others I add the noises the other people would hear alongside the translations.
 
Sorry about the delay...hit a really rough patch in life...i should be able to get a post up tonight. Thanks so much for your patience

Well, I hope this doesn't end up like my delays.

The ones where I perish indefinitely.
