Is it possible I can have grovyle's egg move change to crunch since I haven't posted yet by chance? I gave further thought to Grovyle's potential future move-set and crunch would be better for it in the long term. If this is alright, I'll edit my original sign-up to clarify this fact.

Saw earlier that this was full, but just saw the updated OP that there's a spot open for reserve. Mind if I reserve the Hoenn male with Monferno?

It is possible :3 Do that and I'll change the first post~

I got a PM asking for a spot a few hours before you posted this so I'll have to check with them first. If they don't post an SU, I'll get back to you :3 Thank you for your interest!

Bam! Next post done, a Nidoran captured and Bruce the Arserival introduced. Hope y'all like it!
Hahah Arserival! Like it. I'll go read in a mo'

Also, reading Red Wing's Su in a mo'!

EDIT: now it's fine. You're accepted, Red Wing! Welcome to the RP. You may start posting in the IC whenever you like.
Just one thing - if you want Combusken to know an egg move, please say which :3


EDIT2: I just planned out the exact route we should take through Kanto, and found music to go along with every important area (non-routes, mostly). And dear god. Please let us stand by this RP 'til the end because it'll be good.

Thanks for the positive comments on my post, Red :3 I hope you enjoyed my... Brooklyn/Austrailian/British/Dwarven thugmanperson.

And hey, I really like Red Wing's character ^^ Hope we can interact at some point.

Haha I really enjoyed him! So much different from most characters people create in RPs like this one :D

So, I'll probably post chapter 2 sometime today because I don't like to keep people waiting. Since we're not interacting, it doesn't matter if some people haven't posted on chapter 1 yet.

I'll likely wait for longer with chapter 3 though. Chapter 2 will require two posts minimum since they are to be traveling through the big forest where things can happen~ For those who are a bit ahead of the others, maybe the forest is a good place to make a joint post in? And it would be nice if everyone had at least sort of caught up when we reach Pewter City :3

If I'll post Viridian Forest some time soon, you'll likely get to spend a lot of time there (meaning several posts), developing your characters ^^ but go ahead, I made three posts in chapter 1 so why not.

I'm in GMT+1 I believe. Usually australians and asians are asleep when I'm up and posting in my evenings, while americans are at work or in school :p so I've got a really bad timezone for PC haha.

Yeah, you're right. I'll just wait until the Viridian Forest comes out! So excited (: I've really been wanting to interact with someone, so if anyone wants to try and make friends with Trey just let me know. But he doesn't play well with others, so i apologize in advance ):

I'm American, but you know what they say about us Americans. We're all fat right? That's why i sleep ALLLL day ;D LOLOL just playing guys...im not fat ;p

Sounds like we're as excited for the next chapter as the rest of the forum is for Pokémon X & Y xD

Hehe, that's why I never really enjoy playing as dark or grim or bitter or lonely characters. All my characters might feel a bit similar, but that's simply because I know what I like :3

All americans are fat. Stop lying.
I really hope everyone realizes that that was a joke.



EDIT: Ah. I'll just post the forest now. But chapter 3 likely won't be up until everyone has posted in chapter 2. PC wouldn't let me double post without automatic merging so I just put the new chapter at the top of my last post. So enjoy!

Name: Ben Tobin | Age: 14 | Trainer: Hoenn Male
rstrainer00.png
| Starter: Dewott, Air Slash
502.gif

the start of a new journey;


Personality: Ben is a boy who often finds himself lost within his own head. To most people, he comes off as aloof or a daydreamer. "Always with his head in the clouds", as his grandfather said once. He is a very cheerful boy often to the point of being overly optimistic however he does not often show it. He dreams of training a team of Pokemon whom he can be proud of and who will be his friends. He does not particularly enjoy battling, preferring to train his Pokemon in other ways however when necessary he will give a battle his all. He has a very high respect for Pokemon in general and the only thing that can truly make him angry is if he sees a Pokemon being senselessly hurt or misused for a person's own selfish gain. He is most afraid of being alone, and yet this is how he finds himself most of the time, alone with only his thoughts.

He has an older sister who left long ago to follow her own dreams of becoming a great Pokemon breeder. He has not spoken to her since, though they were once very close friends. He thinks of her when he is sad or unsure of himself to give him confidence as she always told him that he was strong within himself and he could do the things he wanted to most, even if he didn't believe so. He enjoys classical music such as a grand piano piece as he finds it very relaxing and he doesn't care much for television, preferring to spend his free time researching Pokemon and learning all that he can of them. He is also very active physically, beginning every morning with pushups and a run along his usual route just outside the city. Overall, he is a very caring soul if a bit reserved and remote.

Roleplay sample:

I honestly can't wait for Viridian either. This RP is a ton of fun, and I actually have a bit of a plot in mind for something that'll turn into interaction between characters. Or can, at least :P Say Red, are we required to bring our rival into Viridian again? Just a thought.

Looks good! Accepted, welcome to the RP! You may start posting in chapter 1 whenever you feel ready.

There is just one thing I noticed when reading your SU. Nothing major, but a pet peeve of mine when it comes to grammar ;)

"Welcome to the Pokemon Center." She said. "How may I help you?

"I-I'm here to see Professor Pine." Ben said, looking around to see if he could see the Professor.​
When doing dialogue like this, you should rather put comma , than point . and then skip the capital letter. Except for when it's a name, Ben for example. Like this:
"Welcome to the Pokemon Center," she said. "How may I help you?

"I-I'm here to see Professor Pine," Ben said, looking around to see if he could see the Professor.​
If it's an exclamation mark, I think I usually still skip the capital letter. The reason is that we're telling a story about what others said, and thus we don't really quit our sentence even though the character quit a sentence in their dialogue. Maybe you knew all this but I'm just making sure 8D

It's up :3 At the top of my last post, since doubleposting seems to be an automatic no-no. I'm so glad you like the RP!! :D

You're not required to bring your rival into the forest. You can write about them or not write about them, do as you want. If they are required in some future chapter, I'll state so in that chapter info :3

YARRR I actually made the changes to its egg move (and Zoey's pokedex color) in the sign-up last night after I made the request just in case. XD

I should have the first post up today.


Also, out of curiosity, is there a reason you didn't include some of the common, early Pokemon found in the first few routes like Rattata, Poochyena, Bidoof, Sentret, Pidgey, etc.? I'm not particularly interested in catching them but I found it odd, unless of course you're trying to avoid overwhelming yourself with listing the Pokemon in a given area.

I hope there are some interesting creatures in the forest! :)

Actually, the idea I had for the forest involved my rival, so... I think I'll save that for a later time. So! Does aaaanyone want to team up for Viridian? Not neccesarily all of it, but for a post or two, it could be a ton of fun. As much as Charizard's character is cool and all, I doubt he and Adam would get along, so it'd have to be another time :P

Anyone else interested in giving some interaction/joined posts a go?

Haha, I see.

Yes. Partly because not many players usually want to capture them anyways, which gives me room for some more interesting pokémon. Because like you guessed, I don't want to list too many pokémon in one area. No challenge if everything fun is available at once ;) but still not fun with only Rattata and Pidgey in the first route. That's what I think, at least. And I didn't list Caterpie and Weedle because it's mostly tedious to level them up until they evolve twice. Plus, I want to be annoyingly different :D

Aaaand, there are actually plot reasons too... 8D

Understood! I'll definitely remember that for future posts and I'll get working on my IC post asap.

Thanks yourself! Hope to see a post soon then, but no stress :)

Woah!! Viridian Forest will be awesome!

You can write about your rival :) I just didn't make it an official event this time.

I'd definitely be up for a joint post, but I think I want to do the rare-pokémon-group-event on my own first. Maybe Adam and Aberdeen could do the mandatory event (spotting the mews) in a joint post later?
