Settings where the Pokemon are the player characters themselves always grab me.

I agree with Ice: Pace, prompt posts, focused, a party filled with interaction. I agree with some of what IcyIce says: Mystery, not fighting. Story. However, I believe character building is as important as world building. I agree with some of what Trainer Yellow says: I don't enjoy...

Ok, so what I'm hearing you saying is that I require OOC permission to take information from anyone's mind regardless of who they are. That's totally fair. Should I ask my fellow players and GM in discord while I'm writing a post? Or had you something else in mind? I'm glad you're cool with...

Absolutely. More often than not, this takes the form of taking one of my existing Pok?mon characters and placing their profile in a forum SU. You see, I have a collection of Pokemon characters that I'm very passionate about, but who have only seen the 1-on-1 kind of RP, never the group RP...

Quetzalli ??The Oracle App: OOC: Questionnaire: 1. Somebody calls you ?weird but funny.? How does that make you feel? (Quetzalli chuckles gently.) "Well, the first is certainly correct. Not too many find me funny, I'd wager... I think I'd take it as a compliment." 2. The road forks to...

I'd like to participate in this. Roleplaying as Pokemon is my strong suit. I'd also like to see more details about the story, and our role in it, as the workshop goes along.

As soon as my character has something to respond to. Usually same-day.

I don't really see the interest in taking the Pokemon world and subtracting its unique feature (its beloved creatures) in favour of powering up some humans instead.

Not particularly, no. But it's not a dealbreaker either. It just has the potential to feel frustrating or fruitless for the unlucky. Were my earlier comments helpful from a [Workshop] perspective?

Quetzalli, the elderly Oracle Xatu Cadbury, the Linoone butler Just for fun, especially since the latter is the opposite of combat-based.

We did it, we got the Farfetch'd reward! I answered my XP question, too, may as well inform all of ya: The rewards will last until 1st December (with the exception of Farfetch'd and Kangaskhan's availability, which will be just for 48 hours).

I have a question: When does the double XP end? Is it on the 26th, or later than that? Now some news. We're currently sitting at 2.5 billion catches, and the event ends one day from when I post this. For those keeping track, players caught 500 million Pokemon on Friday. If they keep that...

Is it really dating per se?

Yes, we're in agreement there, I was making a suggestion that lines up with your IRL taking priority: suggesting getting whatever busy event is going on out of the way before the RP proper begins. Jean-Georges used artwork and nonverbal communication. But when I hear you describe Bunslee in the...

I strongly recommend that you plan the RP to start after your period of busy-ness. I was recently in an RP where the GM was overwhelming by IRL within mere days of the RP's start, and cancelled the project. That kind of thing is disappointing to all involved, so postponing may be the wiser...
