[ + + ]Ready Steady Go//OOC Discussion Thread[ + + ]

[Juu-Chan]

Here is the OOC discussion thread for my Pokemon RPG 'Ready, Steady Go!'. For future references please try to keep all OOC discussion here to avoid cluttering up the role-play. Feel free to use this space to suggest subplots, ideas etc or even simply general discussion.

As the island on which Battle Academy is situated is a fictional place invented by myself, I will be posting little diagrams and maps that may help your understanding of it's geography (Nothing pro, mind you ^^;;). I shall also post the current location, plot and several of the classes mentioned as well as some character profiles. Check back here often as a resource to keep yourself updated! :D

.:Current Location:.

The school's assembly hall. The new trainers have just arrived and are being aquainted with the gijinka. Roughly 9-9.30 PM.

.:Maps:.

Starting with an outline of the island's facilities and rough outlines of the gijinka's habitat (this is a set location, you may make up your own home)

To the top right is a sky view of an idea of the trainer's dormitories, three to a room.

Middle left is a sky view of the first floor of the Academy

Bottom left is a sky view of the second floor and bottom left is a sky view of the third.

.:School Subjects (These will become more important later on, just look out for a rough idea of what your character would be interested in studying):.

--Basic Classes:.

((Okay, I know the names are hardly creative but hopefully the classes will be more so! ^^;;))

Battle Course: An essential class for every Pokemon master in training! Battle course teaches you the basics of battling, practice matches, type lineups and so on.

Specials: This class is designed to train your Pokemon's special attacks and defense rather than physical. What to do when you don't know what's coming, how to fight super effective attacks.

Breeding: For all you Pokemon breeders out there this class covers Egg groups, breeding baby Pokemon and the Pokemon themselves. This includes their natures, personalities and even favourite poffin flavour.

Trainer Economics: Or Trainer 101. This includes which medicines to use, how to make poffins Pokemon will enjoy and how to work key items.

Extreme Battling: This is Battle Course to the Extreme. This class covers tougher opponents, extreme conditions (underwater, on air) and even surprise attacks.

Co ordinating: A class that will teach you all you need to know to become a co ordinator! This includes which Pokemon are best suited to each category, which combinations work best for appealing, what accessories are the most suitable for your category and so on.

Pokemon History: A compulsonary history class that goes through Pokemon through the ages. Most students despise it.

--Extra-curricular:.

Pokelethon: A number of activities that you and your Pokemon work hard at to become the best.

Cheerleading: This is pretty self-explanitory; cheering during battles

Racing: This is pretty much the same as track; you and your Pokemon race to be the fastest.

.:The Student Dormitories:.

These are split into two categories; girls and boys. It's the same building but spilt into two sections. Your roomates are as follows:

Room 202:. Julian Gallagher, Tyler Smith, Ted Quidel

Room 204:. Seth Zyrax, Cyan Reegn, Kyo Wren

Room: 220:. Rowan Roland, Sophii De Alesquo, Evelyn Egalite

I know Evelyn is biologically male. Think of this as an oversight on the school's part. I thought it may add a little twist ;)

There are, of course, other students but I shall leave them up to your imagination!

 

[The Bringer!]

First reply!

It'd be funny if the classrooms underneath the battle arena's could hear all the commotion up there xD

The maps are kul, but what exactly is "pokeringer"?
Is that like the thing they did in the ranger spin off games?

Hrm, I'm wondering whether Cyan should take Extreme Battling or not... It sounds like one of the really fun classes, but his pokemon aren't exactly the strongest ^^;

Ooooh, Aurora would be great for co ordinating =D
Flash, light screen, hail, and blizzard are all so sparkly *.*

I know the gijinkas have separate classes, but can they still do the same extra curricular activities? Also, the room numbers don't seem to match up with what you posted in the thread =/

I am so psyched for this! ^.^
(it might be the first rp im in that doesnt die xD )

 

[Charzeon]

Could gijinkas take some of courses that trainers take? I'm a breeder myself and I would like it if my character could also take the breeding class. But if she can't then that's quite fine. :)

 

[redandpikachu]

When do we find out the schedule for them? Are we ment to post the classes we want to take here or something?

 

[The Bringer!]

Um... Where is everyone? D=
I would like this to live ;_;

Oh and yeah so this isn't spammy I draweded my characters in my sig =D

 

[redandpikachu]

Is everyone dead!?!? I'm just going to skip to the next day in the RPG, cause mabey no one is interested at the moment?

Also Bringer i think I may do something along those lines too if you don't mind ^.^

 

[Eos Aduro]

Yeah, but what's going on the next day? Juu-Chan hasnt posted in a while, are we doing the classes yet?

 

[redandpikachu]

just like a weekend or something I guess?

 

[The Bringer!]

Also Bringer i think I may do something along those lines too if you don't mind ^.^

Oh, of course I don't mind =D

But, yeah, I don't think Imma post just yet. My gijinka is with Juu-Chan's character right now, and I'd rather not do yet another Cyan only post.
I hope we can start classes soon, they look fun xD

 

[Eos Aduro]

Well I posted, leaving two open ends, hopefully that can prompt some posting.

 

[Juu-Chan]

I am so psyched for this! ^.^
(it might be the first rp im in that doesnt die xD )

Yay! ^.^ Foreshadowing...

Um okay, I'm back, let's get the Ritsu Sohma-like apoligies out of the way and continue on. Since I am so epically bad at making time for this due to interenet problems and freaking school (you: excuses, excuses) I was wondering if anyone would like to be a fellow admin for this Role Play?

Hey, it's a complicated piece...or yeah, I'm just that thick ^^;; If you would be interested just let me know via PM. You'd be more involved with the plot and be more able to change settings, time etc...

NAO THAR BE QUESTIONS :D

Unfortunately no, the gijinka don't take the same classes as the trainers but some may be taken on as an apprentice in a particular subject, if they wish. I'll post a list of the gijinka classes later ^^;;

Pokeringer...it's that thing in the anime right? Y'know the one with the birds...and the rings? I think...I did see an episode but I was too busy staring at Paul to pay much attention to the actual sport IT BE GAME OF RING TOSS ANIRITE...I'll Bulba it and get back to you ^^;;

Oh Bringer thank you so much about the room number thing, I totally spazzed out! I must go fix that ^^;;

You needn't post your classes yet, just have a rough idea of what you'd think your trainer would be interested in!

Oh ya! Feel totally free to post pictures of your characters here (if you've drawn 'em)! I'd totally love to see 'em! And it's so not just because I drawed Magi and want you to see...

Spoiler:

:D Bringer! Cyan and Neaken look adorable!!!

Unfortunately I can't update the actual Role Play tonight but I will try my very best to get around to it tomorrow! I'm sorrry! (insert moar Ritsu Sohma apoligies here) I really shouldn't be allowed to run them...

 

[Eos Aduro]

I'd be an admin, Im no fairly often, although my 4 cores tend to occasionally get in the way (3 of them are in french, and not like half english french, actual fluent french) But I would like to be considered!

Also, I willeventually be uploading my characters pictures, and I might sprite everyone if Im bored!

 

[The Bringer!]

Awww, Magi's face is cute xD

I could attempt to be an admin for this role play, since I can usually be fairly active.
Oh and Eos do you think Cyan and Ted should battle? =3

 

[cookie_lovr]

Can I join?

Edit: If you need a name, you can name me Starr Reever.
If we are supposed to post it now, I want the courses:
Extreme Battling: This is Battle Course to the Extreme. This class covers tougher opponents, extreme conditions (underwater, on air) and even surprise attacks.
Woot! This must be like Pokemon, the show, ex. "Snorlax do Giga Impact! Munchlax, dodge!" Pure hax.
Co ordinating: A class that will teach you all you need to know to become a co ordinator! This includes which Pokemon are best suited to each category, which combinations work best for appealing, what accessories are the most suitable for your category and so on.
Hmm... never really did like this class. But with words, anything can happen!

Pokemon History: A compulsonary history class that goes through Pokemon through the ages. Most students despise it.
This class is so easy if you have the connections.

For sports, Racing is cool.

 

[Eos Aduro]

Drew Ted in Photoshop, thought I'd upload it here.

(Ugh, hands are horrible!! Other than that, I like it)

 

[The Bringer!]

Whoah, cool! Ted's all realistic-y 'n' stuff!

I wish I could draw people with noses xD

Yeah, hands are, like, the most annoying thing ever to draw x______x

Oh, and Eos, sorry for taking so long, but I'll get to my part of the battle soon =D
Just been swamped with homework recently o....o

 

[Juu-Chan]

/braces herself for any flying objects

Ok, guys, I really owe lots and lots of apologies. I really hate doing this! I'm sorry; I've been totally unreliable : ( I hate making you wait. Too much stuff has been getting in the way, my internet was as unreliable as me (nao we have proper broadband so maybe this is the start of something new : ) ) and I have my Junior Cert this year so I've been kept really busy. But enough excuses!

I'm really truely sorry but I just don't think I'm reliable enough to have a roleplay. Don't get me wrong - I was really excited at the idea at first but I can never seem to find the time. If you guys wanna continue go right ahead! I'm just not sure I can join you.

Eos (awesome pic of Ted btw) and Bringer you two have been really great, if this is to stay on I'm sure you guys could do a great job! I'm sorry I can't do it with you!

Heres to hoping I shall be active again, ~Juu

Good luck guys! Feel free to use my ideas and make your own!
