June 2nd, 2013 10:00 AMNakuzamiWell, sorry for that! It was two years ago and I was a noob then, after all. xD
I haven't even gotten my starter in Black 2 or White 2 yet, because I don't own them! D:
Well okaaaay then, that's certainly interesting, lol.
He should have a special dragon-slaying ability, then. xD -
June 2nd, 2013 9:10 AMGrif of HeartsYeah. That was the main way of finding out which island was which, but it was still a bit of a pain to understand. ^_^
I refuse to play it. D: I still haven't finished Black 2.
Magmar are based on the karura, which is essentially a fire-breathing duck man that slays dragons. -
June 2nd, 2013 7:56 AMNakuzamiI think the only reason I hadn't specified before was because it was so linear. I described all of the islands in order, and the path drawn between the islands made the order of the islands clear, lol. d:
That's good~
Ratchet & Clank is a great game series. Go play it, Naow. . . . Since when is Magmar a duck? ._.; -
June 2nd, 2013 7:24 AMGrif of HeartsYep! I found that in the OOC for LIL we had to kind of guess which island was which depending on the features and terrain rather than having anything telling us which was which. It think it'd be worth specifying the different islands this time.
I am. c:
I've not played any of the R&C games. I just remember playing through Yellow with a Golduck and a Magmar for the sole reason that they were both ducks. -
June 2nd, 2013 6:34 AMNakuzamiThat would work, lol.
Well, it certainly sounds like you're making progress. d:
Of course they do. Especially the one from Ratchet & Clank. My sister and I named that one "Zarduck" when we were little. Oh, the memories~ The only difference was that that one was literally a duck that was on fire, like a pheonix-duck thing. xD -
June 2nd, 2013 6:28 AMGrif of HeartsI'll add in numbers and then make a key, saying what number is what island. You can always tell me to change them around if you think something is better suited somewhere else.
Just added in the flying island. Time to do ice and then I just have fighting, ghost, psychic and normal.
Everyone loves a flaming duck. -
June 2nd, 2013 6:14 AMNakuzamiYeah, stand-out islands like the ground-type were easier to identify, lol. I'll get a hold of it soon enough! xD
Well that sounds like fun, lol. Add a few Magmar in there and we have something going~ d:
I never watched it until my niece decided to play the first episode on Netflix, and then we watched a few more and I started to fall in love with it. :3 You should try it sometime. :x -
June 2nd, 2013 2:10 AMGrif of HeartsYes, I was. x) I admit I took some liberties with a few of them, but I tried to keep the significant landmarks as close as I could. The electric area for example has two mountain ranges, as the original one had, the ground area is once again a massive desert.
It does. I put a little green dot between the entrance to the volcano and the settlement with the gym inside of it. I imagine they would be volcanic tunnels, filled to the brim with Slugma and Camerupt!
I can see why it would appeal to people, but I don't know, I've never felt compelled to watch it. It just didn't seem like my cup of tea, I suppose. Far too much potential for nothing but teenage angst. ^_^ -
June 1st, 2013 7:16 PMNakuzamiOh, it took me a moment, but I think I understand what you meant now. You were speaking of the islands you drew, lol. I was still having trouble matching up the types with the islands you made, other than Drymos, lol. d: In that case, that's exactly how it should be! xD
Well, it sounds kind of cool when I think of it. That's probably what I was thinking the first time around, too. Regardless, whether the Arena is inside the volcano or not, there should still be a volcano. d;
I just started watching it last weekend and I already finished the first three seasons, which is 66 episodes. ._.; It's a surprisingly good show, and they make even bad music sound good. Not to mention it's the one show I've seen with gay couples at the center of attention. They've had at least seven gay characters of some significance, Kurt and Blaine especially, and then a few more scattered here and there. They also have a lesbian and a bisexual girl, and a very convincing male-to-female transgender. The show may have some odd cliches at some points and seem a bit awkward at others, and the amount of talent in these schools is incredibly unrealistic, but other than that it's really good and surprisingly realistic in all areas except stacked talent. xD
I've never seen a more adorable couple than Kurt and Blaine. :3 -
June 1st, 2013 2:05 PMGrif of HeartsNo, I mean, I'll just change that central island from being normal-type to being typeless and then make that area Kentrik. It's right in the centre of everything, so it'd be a good starting point, I think.
That's how it was in LIL at least. I've made it that way, but tell me if you want me to change it.
I know of them, but I never bothered to watch Glee. I just know of them. I never really felt compelled to watch it I suppose, but I've seen bits and pieces. Use it anyway. ;D -
June 1st, 2013 1:39 PMNakuzamiNah, I wanted to have Kentrik be typeless. It keeps it neutral territory, makes it so that there's not both an Arena and the Grande Arena, and I have a few story plot points that require the islands to be separate. That's why I added it to the reboot. d:
Oh, was it? I may or may not remember making it that way. xD If that's how it is, then that's how it is! x3
Pfft, well it's Kurt and Blaine, probably the most adorable couple I've ever seen. Worth getting banned over! Plus, it's a scene from Glee, so I doubt it would be considered "too sexual." xD -
June 1st, 2013 1:28 PMGrif of HeartsOh. I forgot about Kentrik! I think we could repurpose the normal-type island as Kentrik, since it's a fairly neutral island as it is. I can add in another normal type island.
It did have one before. I double checked the thread. Apparently the gym was within the volcano.
It's good enough for me. ;D I don't think it's too sexual. It's just a kiss, after all. Ask a mod. -
June 1st, 2013 11:55 AMNakuzamiOne of them, yes. Kentrik's still probably going to be the largest. d:
Did I have one before? Well, yeah, lol, sure. Why not? ;3
Also, I just checked out the sig rules again. You don't think this is too "sexual" for a signature, do you? xD
Spoiler:
-
June 1st, 2013 11:51 AMGrif of HeartsMaybe completely industrialised was the wrong word. Either way, it is probably one of the largest cities on any of the islands.
I take it you still want a volcano on the fire island? -
June 1st, 2013 11:44 AMNakuzamiMmm. I'm not sure if I like the idea of it being completely industrialized. After all, the archipelago was only discovered recently. Here's the story:
Spoiler:★Plot
Background:
Far away from civilization, basking in isolation in the middle of the Atlantic, sits an archipelago of eighteen islands. Long untouched by the scourges brought by mankind, these islands remained untarnished paradises for centuries. It wasn't until thirty-five years ago that these islands were discovered. At first they simply remained a point of study, scientists and archaeologists seeking to unveil the secrets hidden beneath the waves of these lost islands. Within five years of their discovery, people began to migrate to the archipelago. As of yet. no singular country had laid claim upon the islands. So, taking advantage of the opportunity, the International Pokémon League Confederation, or IPLC, moved in. Thanks to this, the newly dubbed "Lost Islands" became a neutral territory, welcoming all and refusing no one.
For the next five years, the IPLC encouraged the inhabitation of the islands, drawing in an influx of immigrants from across the globe. By 1995, the islands had grown immensely, boasting a total population of nearly six million individuals. At this time, the IPLC unveiled their new gem: The Lost Tournament.
The Lost Tournament was to be a grande competition, welcoming trainers from all across the planet. It was to be an entire league consisting of seventeen Arenas, each featuring a different pokémon type and its own unique Arena Medal. The tournament would host five hundred elite trainers that would be handpicked by tournament officials. Of course, they still had to pass the preliminary tests. Lastly, this tournament was to be held every five years.
Present Day:
The year is 2020 and preparations for the sixth Lost Tournament are coming to a close. Five hundred trainers have been picked and have passed the preliminary testing and are finally making their ways to the legendary Lost Islands. Bags are being packed, pokémon are being prepared, and the inhabitants of the Lost Islands are getting geared up to welcome a fresh batch of trainers.
Even the islands are not without their flaws, however. Anything can go wrong just as easily as in any other location. There's also the fact that there's been a recent rise in attacks and robberies all across the islands. People and pokémon have even turned up missing, and no one has yet been able to identify the culprits. It is assumed that the attacks are linked, although no solid evidence has been reported to prove this to be true. It is known, however, that the culprits are dangerous, organized, and cunning enough to get away with it all unnoticed.
As well as the disasters caused by man, there has also been an interesting increase in natural phenomena around the islands. Pokémon have become more agitated, defending their territories more vigorously and attacking people more often. Certain species have also shown abnormal behaviors throughout the archipelago, baffling the scientists and pokémon professors.
Citizens have also noticed that the various shrines of the archipelago, which predate any known human existence on the islands, appear to have been disturbed. No one is sure what to make of it, but it is possible that these disturbances are what have created the upset among the pokémon. Some of the more superstitious inhabitants have taken it as a sign to cancel the tournament and keep outsiders at bay.
Crazy, right? Well, the festivities must go on!
