The Raoga region
 
Raoga
Introduction
Goodmorning and welcome to the Raoga region! The region is based on the story that's being written known under the name of Pokémon Choice Quest in Pokémon Trivia in which everyone together decide what actions the protagonist will perform. While only a small piece of the region is set by the story (which has 49 chapters at this very moment), I'm sure the region as made here will have a big influence on the story too.
Don't refrain yourself to show some love to the region even if you don't have the interest to read Choice Quest. Anything important about the region can be found here and the only thing you're missing is a nonsense Pokémon story in which it took nearly thirty chapters for the main character to obtain Pokéballs.
The region of Raoga
Raoga is a peaceful monarchy governed by Queen Carmen the Third. The capital city Volmia and the towns surrounding them provide a safe and wealthy place to live, where technology has reached a decent level. From the west side trade routes are present to the southeast and Paloma, as well as to surrounding regions. In the northeastern part of Raoga lie two towns that have to develop themselves for the biggest part, as a good connection is prevented by distance and semi-impassable terrain. Big parts are uncivilized and the deep forests provide a great home to various grass and bug type Pokémon. The rivers and seas show each have their own kinds of water Pokémon. The centrally located Mt. Rokk might even have the widest range of species of the whole region, due to its massive size.
Many of the people are Pokémon trainers, Pokémon trainer just in the simplest meaning of the word, human that has befriended at least one Pokémon to a good level. Most of them just keep their Pokémon as pets or use their assistance at their work. Why would you use a pickaxe when Rhydon's Horn Drill is many times as efficient in mining? Why would you cycle to your work when Braviary can carry you? Pokéballs aren't as common as they are in other places, as it's rare for people to have befriended over three Pokémon, the phrase "Gotta catch 'em all" sounds very strange to the majority of the Raogans. Pokémon aren't standard carried around in Pokéballs, they are just seen as convenient ways to carry Pokémon along. I don't think many bosses appreciate when people bring their pet Mamoswine to the office. Shrinking it and storing it in a ball during work time helps well when you want to ride it on your way back home. Holding an unwillingly Pokémon in possession is seen as imprisoning an innocent and therefore illegal. When a Pokémon in the wild is captured in a Pokéball before befriending it (which is uncommon) the person has to do everything they can to get approved by the Pokémon as trainer, otherwise law states it has to be released in the area it was captured earlier. The fact Pokémon are mainly friends or pets doesn't mean there's no battles however, on Sundays one can see friends challenging each other for friendly battles everywhere in the cities. Experienced Pokémon trainers are rare, as it doesn't pay off. A life as a full time Pokémon trainer is often a lonely life (aside your Pokémon), a survival in the wild.
Every year a Pokémon tournament is held in Volmia, for which people from the entire region gather to watch or take part. The cash prizes that can be won, are the main reason why people try to devote their lives as a trainer, but rarely 'laymans' manage to grab one of the prizes too. In order to take part in the socalled RaoCup, one must have proven themselves by beating the six Grandmasters, six trainers chosen by the Raogan Pokémon Cup Association (RPCA) to represent the level that's needed to join.
Geography

Raoga is an island region located south of Hendo, marked orange in the world map above. The mainland is mainly covered in covered in grassland and forests with Mt. Rokk in the center. Aside those the terrain has some notable lakes, two deep forests and the Frosty Forest in the northeast, which is always covered in a thick layer of snow for unknown reasons. The civilization is centered in the west, but a few distant towns manage to cover themselves economically for the most part. Only two of the other islands are inhabited, although Zelma in the west doesn't act like one as it's connected by a bridge. Paloma is has very fertile ground thanks to the volcano and the beaches attract many tourists during the summer.
Notable locations
Spoiler: Sketch of the map, will be updated to a digitally drawn version sometime

Coming soon.
Wildlife
No region is complete without its set of Pokémon inhabiting it. Here's a list of Pokémon that are known to exist in Raoga, some of them are common and can be seen wherever you go and some are only known in mythology.

Further details:
Why not join the region as a trainer? This enables you to represent the Raoga region in global competitions and to join all regional competitions here. Additionally, maybe the most important, you can help shaping the region (and its history, inhabitants, mythology, etc.) how you want. All you have to do is filling in this simple form on the right.
But wait, there's more! You chose one starter Pokémon, this can be any non-legendary basic Pokémon from the list. Each of your posts in this thread counts as five levels for this Pokémon and the Pokémon can be evolved if its level is equal or greater than its evolution level. Any Pokémon that evolves by other means than a level, can evolve in level 30. For each eight posts you make in this thread, you can add another Pokémon. Winning regional competitions can earn you a special Pokémon, a foreign, legendary or shiny one.

Description: -will add later-

This is awesome, I only wish there was at least one of my favorite Pokemon, but oh well lol. Took me some time to precisely calculate what my Pokemon should be, and for now it's Larvitar. That is, before I get that Giratina and eventually Rayquaza, eh.

Etherion July 29th, 2015 4:52 AM

Im just gonna call my starter Litwick, and its male. Umm, for emblem ideas, how about the thread icon (a signpost)?

Laguna July 29th, 2015 5:27 AM

Hey, I like Choice Quest so why not sign up? This will give me a chance to battle the Choice Quest trainer and totally kick their butt.

Further details: On a journey to discover more about the world, this newbie trainer loves to make friends with both pokémon and people alike. However, he is very passionate and won't back down from a challenge.

...Is that good? I don't really do roleplay so I'm not used to this. I'll think of a name for Cyndaquil later.

PKMN Trainer Sven joined the region! But there's Cleffa! Who know if some of them will be added when Raoga wins a PokéDex expansion. I'm pretty sure Rayquaza won't however.

Not a bad idea, it is something notable for this. I was thinking in the direction of legends myself (but I still got to write that out), but might be easier. I'll see if I can get it working.

PKMN Trainer Strider joined the region! Don't worry, it isn't meant as a roleplay. Those details are sufficient to know what type of person it is for a bit.
Also, I've added Choice to the trainer list, who has a slight headstart with a four Pokémon party.

I feel I could've guessed that, as your RP Budew was named Antheia.

I know there is Cleffa, its gonna live under my Tyranitar's foot, like all the other pink mons. :P

Btw all my Pokemon are male unless I emphasize differently. :D

Laguna July 29th, 2015 7:37 AM

We should make Choice get a Cleffa then, and then all of the other pink pokémon. Then Choice will rule the world with the power of PINK.

Guardian July 29th, 2015 7:45 AM

Btw can you explain how the leveling up works. You count posts on this thread? or the Choice thread?

Laguna July 29th, 2015 7:55 AM

Well it says each of the posts in this thread counts as five levels for a pokémon (does this extend just to your first pokémon or can we choose which it goes to, by the way?) so I'll assume Choice Quest posts don't count.

Also, my pokémon will now be known as Vivian the Cyndaquil-- er, Quilava.

It's just the posts here that count. Each of the Pokémon gain the levels after the post in which you obtain it.. When you have twelve posts for example, your first Pokémon is level 60 (12×5) and your second Pokémon (gotten with post 8), is level 20 ((12-8)×5). I hope that makes it clear. :)

At the moment, not so much. There's an emblem design contest going on.
Aside that, you can write a piece of history, a location or an important person or even just give a suggestion for something you want to see. Artworks are appreciated too. I'm always open for feedback.

I don't know, what do you suggest? I've already put an announcement in the CQ thread and a link in my signature. The latter may not be most obviously placed, but I doubt it will have much effect, but I can see if I can get some banners. Or if anybody else wants to make them, they're free to do so.

On the contrary, the forum is really new. It exists for eight days now. So there's your explanation why you had no idea of its existence.

On another note, I have submitted an emblem for the global contest, found <here>, there's a bit of mythology there too.

Oh thanks lol. Well, still, its not about Pokemon specifically, nor about rancom DCC stuff, so I still dont think it'll get that much attention, but who knows :D

Meadow August 1st, 2015 11:38 AM

Yo, Han! I'm finally here! :D Now give me that free ice cream plz

Name: Revise
Profession/occupation: Historian (If I can't be a Historian, then I'm also fine with being a normal Trainer) ^^
Starter Pokémon: Shroomish (named "Synchron")
Further details: Unknown for now

Hope I did that right! Also, I noticed that Sandshrew happens to live in this region, so it seems that the Choice Quest protagonist does have a chance of encountering one after all! ;P

Hahaha, I was super super tempted to, but then I decided that I can pick one up later after making more posts in this thread. xD (Though I would really like to have a Goomy and Absol as well.)

And wait NOOO... sharing is caring ;-;

Laguna August 1st, 2015 12:47 PM

I don't know, I would like to get Absol myself eventually. I should be able to get a new pokémon soon though, I'm still not sure what I want.

Hey can we actually use showdown for battles. Or there are no battles :-(

Guardian August 1st, 2015 11:12 PM

I was seriously considering Sandshrew as well, just for the kicks. But I realized I'll need something a bit stronger if I wanted to win stuff so I can get myself proper Pokemon outside this list HAN gave us.

Oh and what's that, Rufflet just joined my team ;)

At the moment there isn't anything planned regarding battles, but that doesn't mean you can't try to challenge others for a battle if they want. I don't know how much others are skilled in competitive team building, but if there's enough interest, I'll be sure to organize a competition.

Another thing, the region won a point! (Okay, everyone that took part got a point, but let's stay positive.) Three points give a PokéDex expansion.

More news: Raoga's thread has currently the most posts of all regions. :D

Laguna August 2nd, 2015 5:35 AM

I'm... not very skilled with competitive team building, so I don't know if I can actually challenge other people. also we should get 10 points for having the most posts

By the way, Quilava is now a Typhlosion, and ooh, is that a Rhyhorn? I'ma catch it and name it Johnny. (it's a male obviously)

I sadly have little to no skill at competitive battling, so I don't think I'd be of much help there. D:

Laguna August 3rd, 2015 4:28 AM

Okay, here's the explanation for the point: there was a contest to create an emblem for your region and everyone who participated got their region at least one point in the World of Pokécommunity rankings. Getting three points means you can get an expansion for your region's pokédex. Go read the World Act I thread for more info on that.

Guardian August 3rd, 2015 5:12 AM

Oooh got it. Thanks.

Also, HAN, Tyranitar ;)

Lycanthropy August 4th, 2015 12:22 AM

Regarding the point, yeah, it's not much. Strider explained it pretty much already. I even have linked to the thread two times earlier, so not knowing about it shouldn't be my fault. The emblem I made will actually be turned into an official emblem! I don't know when the next global contest will be starting, Mana said it to be appear soon and ignored it when I asked how soon "soon" meant.

Alright, alright, relax, I didnt make connection between the two.

Lycanthropy August 5th, 2015 12:12 AM

I found out how soon "soon" meant, right now. Please read this post. Any ideas?

Laguna August 5th, 2015 12:30 AM

Well, the "authorities" could go and try to catch all the rampaging pokémon and then release them to the wild later after it's all over. I mean, with the exception of Ash's Charizard, captured pokémon are generally more friendly than wild ones, right?

Guardian August 5th, 2015 1:29 AM

We should just send someone to talk to e Mewtwo and explain him he cant do stuff like that...in a Hyper beam language. lol

But it's half the population, how can you capture half of all the Pokémon?

Even if we knew where in the world Mewtwo was, I still doubt that it will work.


Second thing, we need a news channel, newspaper or something like that, which will need some cool name. Suggestions?

Well if Ash can catch 30 Tauros in the time span of ten minutes and we get the queen, all the grandmasters and a bunch of veteran trainers to try it I'm sure we can do it.

TheGreatDitto August 5th, 2015 7:29 AM

The times of Raoga is decent enough
BTW welcome my lucario

Guardian August 5th, 2015 7:55 AM

They say it spreads, you cant just go and catch Pokemon cos you'd eventually catch every single Pokemon on the island. You deal with the problem's source, not the symptoms/consequences.

Laguna August 5th, 2015 9:20 AM

It'd still help though, and we could bring an infected pokémon and find out what's causing it. It's not like we should discard the idea entirely.

Guardian August 5th, 2015 9:27 AM

Too much cost. You need all the pokeballs, plus not sure how and where you're planning to release them. We could catch few but we already know it's Mewtwo who is causing it. Everything other then attacking the source is a waste of time cos regardless of what you do and when you do, you're not stopping the spreading.

LucarioFan3 August 5th, 2015 9:31 AM

Name: Kenny (Nicknamed Krazy Kenny)

Further Info: This fresh-out-of-college young man is one of the most comical people you will ever meet. He rarely ever gets upset or angry. As of right now, he is searching for a job that he thinks will work out for him.

Laguna August 5th, 2015 9:40 AM

You're determined to prove me wrong, aren't you Guardian? Well, whatever, I tried and that's what counts.

EDIT: I still think we should try the science approach though, if we know it's Mewtwo causing it and we're able to trace where the psychic powers that are making the pokémon angry we could possibly find out where Mewtwo is hiding and send Ash to die try and make it stop. I know it sounds like a stretch but in theory it could work.

Guardian August 5th, 2015 10:08 AM

Lol nah, just discussing. Its not like we are doing anything, I just want to win this, cos points, cos Gyarados and Arcanine and Pokedex expansion :D

Lycanthropy August 5th, 2015 10:14 AM

Still, Mewtwo is pretty out of reach, but there might be a way to make the Pokémon unaffected by its influence, some calming music perhaps.

PKMN Trainer Kenny joined the region! Welcome LucarioFan! I have simply stated you as a Pokémon trainer in the list, because "jobless guy" sounds not as interesting. If you want to change it, just tell me. :)

Laguna August 5th, 2015 10:17 AM

Yeah, I want that pokédex expansion too, I really want Raichu and Skarmory.

Also, Lycan, perhaps we could use some Heal Bell for that? Miltank does learn it naturally.

Guardian August 5th, 2015 10:24 AM

Lets just give a certain Pokemon a megaphone and let it Sing everyone to Sleep.

Also HAN you mentioned some contests so we can win a certain Pokemon outside this region. When is that happening? :D

Laguna August 5th, 2015 10:27 AM

Said certain pokémon doesn't exist in this region sadly, but that could work too if the subject is being uncooperative. We'd need something so we don't fall asleep with it though.

I only noticed this just now, probably because of the "EDIT", yet I doubt if this will work. I don't think the mods are going to allow one region to find and destroy the source. (And Mewtwo is probably on some island we've never even heard of, like Dragon's region.)

Okay, maybe I should tell you this, but starting this Sunday, I won't be having access to the internet for at least a week. Add to that an absence of tomorrow there's only two days for me to write things. So... I don't expect I can do much. But no problem, if you want to have those points so badly, I'm sure you'll be writing some articles about this matter too. Right? :)

Well I imagine the contest is more about just finding a way to solve the problem rather than actually doing it. If anything, we could also find a way to block Mewtwo's powers somehow.

By the way, I have a Lapras now named Glaze. (It's a female)

1. Any non-level evolution counts as 30, yes, but you still need level 32 and 33 to get Seadra and Piloswine respectively and you can't skip the middle forms. You can choose to instantly go from Swinub to Mamoswine for example at lv35.
2. Sure, I don't see why not. If you insist, but don't forget those might take a while. Also you and Strider should stop having more posts in this thread than me.

So, if you're not on next week, can you make a submission for the World Act 1 thing or will we have to make it for you? I wouldn't mind doing one myself but I won't stop you.

Also, Johnny's a Rhydon now. Also, can I go evolve him again now or do I have to wait? He's technically over level 30 and Rhyperior's a trade evolution so I'm confused.

Lycanthropy August 6th, 2015 11:28 AM

This time it's not just sending in one thing, it's showing what the people do over the week. I'm definitely going to write some newspaper articles in the next two days, but if you want to do something too, please do!

Nothing to be confused about, it's just as you say. You can evolve Johnny again if you want, but you're totally free to wait until he's level 100 or something.

I dont completely understand this last contest though to be honest.

Okay, well there's no reason to keep him a Rhydon now is there? Just evolve him again right away.

Also I could make something in Photoshop but my mouse isn't working and using Photoshop with a mouse pad isn't easy.

Stress among the forest Pokémon
By Alina Woods

notice them tiring, yet they kept going on until they were completely out of energy, which would turn them into an easy prey for predators.
Interesting story, don't you think? It's not even limited to that! From all directions many strange noises could be heard. What seemed to be a peaceful piece of nature has turned into noisy chaos where fights could be regularly seen when you walk through it. There's something that causes stress here in the forest and the Pokémon can feel it. I have yet to find out what this source is, but I expect it's something is trespassing on their territory. There might be an aggressive intruder that claimed it's territory inside the area of other Pokémon, forcing them to move out. The only place where the poor Pokémon could have gone is in the territory of other innocent Pokémon, whose territory now gets invaded too and the cycle repeats. In no time the entire forest could feel the pressure of having less space to crawl around.
Equipped with binoculars and camouflage suits we are going to study the behavior of the Pokémon over the next days. Hopefully we will be able to find the source of this. Maybe it has already disappeared by that time. Looking how quickly this appeared, I see the possibility its disappearance will be just as soon. We'll be sure to keep you informed in the Morning Chatters.
Durman- It was only yesterday when it started, or at least until we found out about it. We, my husband and me that is, were walking around in Raoga's central jungle, close to Durman. Soon enough we were attacked by a couple of Whirlipede. The reader is probably questioning what's the strange part of this experience. I must admit, there's not much to tell you get, but we're often in the woods here and Whirlipede aren't the nicest Pokémon out there. We have been driven off by them regularly and normally they seem to be happy after a short chase when our distance to their nests has become big enough in their opinion, but these two of yesterday were stalking us for a distance that equals two miles, or that's how it felt to us at least, when we decided to climb into a tree, while the bug Pokémon were circling around the tree for at least twenty minutes. During this time, we were able to study them and observed some odd traits. The eyes of the Whirlipede were red, you'd nearly say a blood vessel in the eyes had burst open, but that heals fast. The chance that happens to two Pokémon in both eyes I estimate around zero. The second observation is moreover a character trait instead of appearance. The ferocity of the Whirlipede didn't calm down, even when there's no chance the Pokémon could reach us in the tree. They kept angrily rolling around and bumping into the tree and we could

That's the only list there is, you're free to pick any non-legendary basic Pokémon from the list. Other Pokémon and shinies can be won in regional events when they happen.

Rotom surely is, just give me a call when you want to change its form.

Regional power outage fixed
By Egbert Lectron

The power outage is not known to have caused any real trouble. Electric Pokémon were gathered to power important buildings, like hospitals. Thanks to the same outage we were not able to print a Morning Chatters in the last two days, my apologies on behalf of the entire redaction.
Mr. Connan, a local farmer, had averted the insane Pokémon with his Miltank Clara. Clara's Heal Bell made the Pokémon come to their senses when he was attacked by a flock of Murkrow. When the farmer heard about the incident at the power plant, he and his Miltank tried used the same move. While the Klink remained calm, a team of twenty-two workers got the power plant back to action.
Ilnoa- Crazy red eyed Pokémon have been appearing all over the region for the last couple of days. It's still unknown what causes this, but it's present everywhere, the phenomenon has been reported in other regions too.
Ilnoa's power plant, providing energy to 80% of the region (everything except Poloma, Tsunama and Shargos). The power plant got inoperative by an attack of the Klink, that naturally live in the building for as long as people can remember. The Pokémon have never caused a problem before and therefore the government had decided they could live there. As many other Pokémon, the Klink started to go berserk with glowing red eyes. The attack didn't cause any deaths, but three staff members got injured.

Other details:
Had been the best trainer in her hometown, but being a few years older than the other kids and the only one with her own Pokemon was probably very key to that. Wanting a real challenge, she left on her journey. Can be very cocky and sandshrewd, but is also obssessed with justice and fairness.

PKMN Trainer Al joined the region! Sorry it took me so long to welcome you, but that doesn't make you less welcome here! Your Joltik is named Joltik for now, just poke me if you want to change it. :)

Basically, there is this region, Raoga. People can write or draw things about the region, its history, people and happenings. There will be global events versus other regions and regional events versus each other too.


As mentioned above, the PokéDex can be expanded! Therefore, everybody can propose a couple of Pokémon to be added to the list, like Sven and Strider already did, although the threats weren't necessary. Please don't kill me!

Well I already said Raichu but I mentioned Skarmory earlier and I still want it, a lot.

DyingWillFlareon August 20th, 2015 8:01 PM

Sorry then, I was looking at the first post and didn't see him in there. ^.^U

I guess I can't say no to Raichu then, but that's no problem. It fits well to what I had in mind.

Also, a small regional competition will be appearing soon.

New Raogaian island discovered?
By Sella Unny

mainly in the western part of the region. In fact, Poloma, where the discoverer comes from, is one of the only cities on the east coast. The other small towns aren't interested in the sea and therefore don't stand a chance to discover an island. In fact, none of the sea trade routes cross the area in which the island was found. All people living on the other side had no interest in going to the sea that for, where nothing was said to be." We asked him the odds nobody has ever visited the area. "Those are pretty reasonable. In fact, it's not necessary nobody has visited the area. People could have seen it but either not mentioned because they didn't the importance or simply because they never have returned. It's far off-coast you see." We thank professor Tectonic for sharing his view on the situation. A team is on their way to explore the area and hopefully we're able to give you more information about the mysterious island soon.
Poloma- When Henry Board, a twenty-two year old teacher at Poloma's surfing school, and his Pelipper Pelly were surfing and flying far off the coast they saw an island at the horizon, or so he claims. No islands are known to be located within the estimated area, yet he is convinced he saw it. "Me and Pelly were surfing and flying, there's not much difference between the two with her, which makes it so exciting. Anyway, we went further away than we normally do, a lot further and then I saw it. My eyes don't lie, there was land! I saw it, it was there!" says the ecstatic Mr. Board.
Could the claim be real or is this just a stupid April Fools joke in the wrong time of the year? We asked professor Tectonic, a head geographer at Tessel's GeoSearch. "At first glance it might sound stupid, but we can't say that for sure. In fact, I even think there's a good possibility the existence of said island is true. If you take a look at your standard map of Raoga, the civilization can be noticed to be

Voltorb appear native to Raoga
By Egbert Lectron

group of Voltorb appeared to live here. Their behavior is confirmed to be their nature and not caused by the event earlier. For now the storage room is being avoided and activities proceed normally.
Ilnoa - After the crazy red eyed Klink event earlier, another group of Pokémon is terrorizing Ilnoa's power plant. When one of the workers went to the storage room and picked up what seemed to be a Pokéball, it exploded. A

Meadow August 24th, 2015 9:58 AM

I was just wondering, can we have our own items here, similar to how we can have our own Pokémon? If so, then I'll do anything to get my hands on a fishing rod... xD

Also...

Regarding regional events (versus each other), will those involve any battles, or are they contests (like art, history, writing, etc.)?

It's too silent in here...

An unknown island
Raoga contest #1
Introduction
If you've read the news (a few posts above this one, here), you know an island has been discovered and a team is on their way to check it out. Rumors have spread the island is inhabited by a legendary Pokémon, can they be true? Welcome to Raoga's first small contest!
What's it about?
It's not very complicated, there's an island discovered in the east of the mainland, inhabited by any legendary or mythical Pokémon of your choice, provided it's not already present in Raoga's Dex. Your entry describes the island and this Pokémon. You can think to show things like:
-Why the legendary Pokémon is on that island.
-What the legendary Pokémon is doing there.
-What the island looks like.
-Any other Pokémon that inhabit the island.
-The island's name.
-...

Be as creative as you want. Your submission can be in any form you like, text, an artwork, etcetera. You may even sing a song about it if you feel like.

Please send your entry to me by PM before September 3rd, that's ten days away from now. If more time appears to be needed, no worries. Just mention and I can extend it for a bit.

The winner's idea will be officially added to the region as the mysterious island. Also, the chosen legendary Pokémon will be added to the winner's party. Good luck!

Whew, I'm glad the deadline is in September! I'm currently on reduced activity until September, so hopefully I should be able to make something once I'm off my hiatus. :D

EDIT: Oh, I just remembered that my Shroomish is evolving to Breloom now! ...I think?

Revise, you ninja! There goes my point of it being silent in here. Anyway:

I haven't implemented items yet and I don't think there's much need to at this point. Pokémon function as trophies already, so that's not necessary. I'll think about an interesting way to make them have an effect, but if you can come up with something, please tell me.

Regional contests can be both, although there didn't appear to be much interest in battles. I think my post above pretty much answers the second part of the question. Also, aside contests, you can also write (or any other means) about the adventures of your character through the region and what he thinks about the news and such.

Laguna August 24th, 2015 11:05 AM

I'll maybe think of something but I'm not that good so I'm not sure if I can come up with anything. I'll probably write up a paragraph or two about my character sometime though.
