I'd recommend just reading through an ooc thread and its corresponding ic thread. You don't need to read too much, just enough to get a feel for the way things play out. I haven't participated in any pokemon rps yet, so I guess I'm not the best of help with something like that. I don't want you to get discouraged and not join at all since I think the RPT is a really fun place if somewhat intimidating at first, but really you should just go read some threads and get a feel for it. :x
