New Story Idea
I came up with this idea just a little while ago, but I do think I could pull it off with a bit of thinking and effort.
Spoiler:
What do you think? Also, I need a title for it. I was simply thinking "The Dark Ages", but that's a little cheesy... if you've got any that you think might work, please share them. |
hmmm sounds interesting. although, evn though he is a dark legendary and darkrai is believed to be evil, hes always been in turth closer to a lonely pokemon lookin for a friend (guess i jst dont really like the 'darkrai is evil cliche'. but the basis of the story sounds pretty good.

Maybe I could just make him seem evil, but he actually isn't... I don't want to give too much away though. |
I think it's a pretty good idea. You just need to be prepared to execute the capture of the legendary Pokemon well enough that it doesn't come off as easy, but still manageable at the same time. After all, some people are under the impression that legendary Pokemon cannot be caught. You need to show them otherwise.
I think The Dark Ages could work as a title, but maybe you could capture more of the essence of the story in a single word or even a short phrase. For instance, I named my older chaptered fic The Fall of Light because the prophesy references that as the outcome unless something is done, and my other fic, Affliction, is named so for reasons not revealed yet. Those are just a few examples. One method of naming a fic that I have heard of is opening your media player and browsing your library until you find something that fits. I have read a few fictions where the author did this, and the title fit very well with the story. I myself have done this for stuff I have written outside of the internet, and I was met with an encouraging amount of success. I hope I have helped, although I wish I could provide further insight into this matter. Maybe someone else with a better idea than me will come along and help you. |
he makes an excellent point about the capturing of legendaries and making it easy and stuff. i dont remember where but i found a comic that showed how brandon (a fronteir brain from teh anime series if u didn't know) caught regirock registeel and regiice. id look for that because i remember that how he did it was ingenius and believable but still had that flare of incredible difficulty. however, when it comes to the point where u want to capture mew and the other mystics id REALLY thnk it through before u write those chaps. please do ur best on this fic cause im realaly lookin forward to readin it!

I still really want to pursue this idea, but I'm having trouble trying to fill holes that make the story... confusing. I'm thinking that it should be set well into the future and I was going to make Pokemon Trainers be "extinct".
So, the main idea is, about five or so groups across all the major regions are capturing the legendary Pokemon in an effort to "defeat" Darkrai. (there will be a twist, however) I just need to try and get an idea of who the main characters are going to be... I know the protagonist is a Soldier from Kanto (possible going to change) that has a secret, but I'm going to need a few more people. Ultimately though, the Soldier will be on his own for most of the time. |
I think you could pull it off. The whole concept is nice and so is the plot. You will have to make the capturing legendary pokemon chapters very discriptive in the battles and an effort if you want people to read it and keep reading it. Do what post office buddy said about trying to think of the fics title. Good luck and can't wait to read it!:)
