    This is just a very rough draft of the plot. I don't have anything to show you guys yet because I don't have anything done yet. That is because I have a mac and can not find an rpg maker for it. (That is good) Until I find one or I find a way to run RPG Maker I can't make it. But here is the begining:

    Other events:

    Hope you like the plot. Oh and also this takes place in every region made so far: the region you start in (yet to be named)
    Kanto
    Jhoto
    Hoenn
    Sinnoh
    Almia
    Fiore
    Did I miss any?
    Well hope you like it, it will have many other unique things too.

    Something went wrong and it made 2 threads. Can someone shut one down for me please?

    Chapter 1 PokeCamp
    Cast:
    Prof. Wood
    You
    Jaun/Polly Are you sure you don't mean Juan?
    Mom
    It begins with you in the Professors lab with Lucas/Polly (your rival). For this demonstration I will be Steven and Jaun will be my rival.
    Prof: Wood: Hello Steven and Jaun. It appears you two are ready for our pokemon exploration camp now that you are finally 13. Well, I can see already that the dialogue is a little mechanical. I would suggest using idioms. Also, try paying attention to some common ways that people talk in a conversation, and use what you see in your writing.
    Jaun: You bet we are!
    PW: Ok so now what should we do? Oh, I got it! Report to your parents to tell them that we are going on our first field trip. I almost think you need more exposition before going into the events of the story. Reread how the other pkmn games begin: There's almost always an explanation or pre-story part at the very beginning.
    Jaun: Field trip!? To where?
    PW: To the triangular divide Jaun. I'll explain it in better detail later.
    Jaun: Ok Steven I'll race you back here and you better not cheat. Ready, Set, GO! Also, reread what you've wrote. I think you may find some missing punctuation.
    Jaun runs out of the screen to his house.
    Now you get free movement.
    You walk down to your house talk to your mom and come back to Prof. Oak's house. What does "your mom" say?
    And when you talk to your mom she gives you the running shoes.
    Jaun: Well about time slowpoke.
    PW: Ok now it's time to set off for the Triangular Divide! Umm... I'm confused. First of all, what is the Triangular Divide? Secondly, did you ever mention to the character how to get there? All these little details may not seem important, but it helps the person playing your game.

    Chapter 2 The Triangular Divide

    Cast:
    Prof: Wood
    You
    Jaun
    Assistant
    Team Marsh Grunt
    When the screen comes back in you are at the Triangular Divide. A large volcano with Valleys on either side.At the top of the volcano there is a large fiery landscape, On the right a vast watery swamp, and to the left a lush green forest. Ahh, okay. Still, why are you going to the Divide? are you a field assisstant? Pokemon trainer?
    PW: Today we'll be studying pokemon in their natural habitats. Steven how about you check out the forest with Jaun, I'll go to the volcano, and my s=assistant will check out the swamp. Hm? Typo?
    Assistant: Yes Sir.
    Jaun: Got it! Steven let's go!
    Everyone leaves in a different direction.
    When you get into the woods Jaun sees something up ahead. Sees what? You'll have to either show it on screen in the actual game, or mention it through dialogue...
    Jaun: Hey Steven, what's this?
    You guys hurry ahead to find 3 strange looking people talking. With pokemon on the ground between them.
    Person1:I saw the Prof. Head up the volcano…
    Person2: Perfect, was he alone?
    Person1: Yes which makes it even easier..
    Person 3:Hey! There's kids over there!
    The have a shocked expression when they see you and run off torward where you came from.
    Jaun: Who were those people? Hey they left some pokemon behind.. And there hurt! Wrong "there" there... What about those people? Where they responsible for the pokemon?
    You both run over to the injured pokemon.
    Just then the assistant runs in from behind.
    Assistant: Hey guys did you see those strange people?... Hey what are those injured pokemon doing here?
    Jaun: Those crazy people left them behind. How does he know?
    Assistant: We should go to the professor now, how about we each take one, I have some spare pokeballs to carry them in.
    Jaun: So how about it Steven, you can choose first.
    This is where you get your starter still haven't decide on what to use I guess I'll use chimchar, turtwig, and piplup. I'll choose piplup. Will the game have any fakemon?
    Jaun pick turtwig and the assistant takes chimchar. ( No duh)
    Then you all run to the top of the volcano to see Prof. Woody. Oh goodness... That should NOT be his name.

    Chapter 3 Team Marsh
    Cast:
    You
    Jaun
    Prof. Woody
    Assistant (Creg)
    Team Marsh Grunt
    When you arrive at the volcano you see the 3 strange people blocking Prof. Woody.
    Person1: Now come with us Professor. They're very forward, aren't they? The point being, you still haven't explained any motives whatsoever for these people's actions.
    Person3:Hey! It's those pesky kids again.
    Person1: Don't worry this will be easy.
    Person3: Yeah lets teach them a lesson with our pokemon!
    Person2: Don't be so hasty. Anyway were Team Marsh and we need the Professors research to help benefit everyone.
    Jaun: I don't believe you for a second!
    Assistant: Yeah! Me neither!
    Person2: Fine then, we'll teach you to meddle where you don't belong!
    Then they charge at you and you battle for the first time. The assistant coaches you through it. Well that's the beginning. I don't know... No offense, but it didn't exactly bring anything new to the table in terms of a plot. The story you make doesn't have to be the main focus of your game, though: You could keep the story as is, but add in lots of new gameplay elements.



    Other events:
    Other events are you get assisted by a rouge Team Marsh captain. WHAT ARE THEIR MOTIVES? I have absolutely no idea what "Team Marsh" is. Every other gym you find, will be under attack By whom? and you have to double battle with the Gym Leader to get them out. After you beat the game...!WARNING! !BIG SPOILER! Team Marsh get's back together and your rival becomes the leader! You mean Jaun? Why would he want to be the leader? Oh, and the device they need Prof. Woody's research for is a machine that literally creates pokemon which they would use tp create legendary pokemon and take over the world. Okay, finally... but that definitely shouldn't just be an afterthought in your plot.


    Hope you like the plot. Oh and also this takes place in every region made so far: the region you start in (yet to be named)
    Kanto
    Jhoto
    Hoenn
    Sinnoh
    Almia
    Fiore
    Did I miss any?
    Well hope you like it, it will have many other unique things too.
    heheh... good luck with that. Personally, I think anyone who claims their game will have every region is just blowing smoke. No good (pokemon) game should be that drawn out and that pointlessly large.

    Something went wrong and it made 2 threads. Can someone shut one down for me please?
    Eh. It was alright, but you probably want to revise some of the grammar and style.

    Not that I don't care about the rest of what you said, it just don't have any relativity to my post. I suggest if you have a copy of XP or Vista lying around looking into boot camp for the Mac. You can run a Windows based OS on a Mac using it. Most people don't, so my next suggestion is to look into the Mac based Wine RPG Maker has been around for long enough, it should work with that.
