:X I've been waiting for a good RP to jump in. I'm too lazy(READ: Busy) to make my own. In the meantime... I'll return to lurking.

This post brought to you by the RP '1884'. Why yes. This is advertising.

AHHHHHHHGHGHGHG. Awwwwww. Darn, I Am making something just like this only different, so i guess I won't do it since u had the idea first.
EDIT: You know what I don't think it's that much like it, Ill send you a copy of mine ~Kon. When I'm done and if it's too much like yours I won't do it.

Gaaaah! I'm so sorry *bows* *bows*

I've been sitting on this RP for a while, so I didn't mean to whip it out while yours was on it's way D:

EDIT: I've posted it, Red, if you want to take a look :p

I got a cool idea for a RP and it's basically you roleplaying as a Trainer with a Pokemon team. So you get to write in perspective of the Trainer him/herself and the Pokemon he/she owns themselves. Has this idea been taken? I haven't seen this anyway, so I just thought I could use. If it has been announced that it's been 'reserved' or thought of, I could wait for another time to post it up if it's ok with everyone.

Oop... I tried posting an OOC thread for +Pokéma and it timed out, so I tried again and it said I'd already posted... but the thread's not showing up. What do?! D:

Our wonderful mod would accepted in no time so don't worry! XD

Just posting to say that I added a rule about thread revival (you can (and should!) read it in the RULES thread).

When one month or more has passed since the last post in an RP or OOC thread, only the GM may post and revive it. If two or more months has passed, nobody may post. The thread by then really is dead by PC standards. If you realize you still want to play that RP, you better make a new one instead.

Alright, I'm not new to roleplaying but I'm definitely new to Pokémon roleplaying, and I'm having a bit of a hard time figuring out how to properly involve myself in the roleplays that are going on right now. The interesting ones seem to be too far ahead for me to effectively jump into the action, and the rest don't really appeal to me that much. Anyone got suggestions on roleplays I could take a look at that accept newcomers?

By the way, the kind of roleplay I enjoy is where the players are trainers, not Pokémon (Mystery Dungeon style).

Hopefully it's not a bother - I just feel really lost going through all the threads and trying to find something I can really participate in. ^^;;

Well, Aurora Borealis looks interesting to me, maybe you should try to sign up for that last spot?

Or Isshu Diaries, which looks like it will be fun. You'll have to compete for the spots with the other potential players there.

I think there are two open spots in the Johto's New League RP. I'm a player there as well. It's solid but slow-moving.

Actually, RHCP, Aurora Borealis's SUs are already closed. D= So, sadly enough, he can't join that RP. XD

Oh well. When I posted that, the first post still said there was a spot open.

I think you can afford to be picky. There are new RPs opening up every other day. Some are bound to meet your standards. I hope.

I'm just tossing an idea out there, we've seen possible a dozen or so human to pokemon RPs, but not very many[if any] pokemon to human?
If someone wants to use that for an RP feel free, i'm mostly concentrated on my RP but it just popped into my head and though, "This is good" then tucked it away and let it see if it survived all the other thousands of thoughts that get thrown into my head.
It did so it passed the test that all my good ideas go through, but i'm already engaged so let someone else use that idea...
just a thought [that survived my thought elimination process]

I'm not sure what my last Elite Four type should be for my Journey RP. I'm left with either a Ground type user or a Fighting type user. Which do you think would be much better? Fighting type E4s have been quite common in the recent gens. Sinnoh's E4 was the first to use Ground type(Bertha). Should I follow the flow or try and be different? Ground-types aren't exactly popular and good, but Fighting-types are too cliche like Lucarion and Machamp. >.<

*le gasp* I can't believe the RHCP still remembers my RP! *too happy and faints*

Well I still have another RP Pokemon Wild West that still have some SU spaces xD

I'm looking for a Journey RP(that's open of course) and is based on Black and White. I wanna try Unova via RP before I get the game. :)

Might be interesting, especially if a pokémon who turned human is told to become a pokémon trainer XD

I say go with Ground! Sure, they are pretty easy to beat sometimes.... but this is an RP and not a DS game. I love ground types.

Also, about they journey RPs, cool to hear there is a demand for more of them to be set in Unova. An idea for aspiring game masters perhaps?

Also no. 2: there are 1½ spot left in my RP Darkrai's Balloon, if you want to play as a pokémon.

Also no. 3: I've updated the rules.

We're now allowing OOC threads to be put up before main RP threads. I've been giving it some thought, and in other forums, people usually put up some kind of SU thread before they start the main game. If you want, you can put up an OOC/SU thread before you put up your main RP thread. Because, some people think it's more organized like that and I finally agree.

Anybody happy now? ;)

It won't be easy since most of the Ground types are dual-typed. Btw 1½ spots? Why is there a fraction? Did a half human signed-up? O.o Noted the new updated rules. :>

Yes, Ace is a half-human. No, but there is someone who hasn't finished his SU.

Oh I see.

Btw, I've finally completed my Journey RP. It's my first one and it's based on Sinnoh which is my fave region. Just hopes it gets accepted. XD *dying of over-excitement*

hmmm... Not quite sure how i feel about the new arrangement. It's weird that other and pokemon are mixed into one.
