Pokémon: Ashes of Dreams [OOC]

I'll be catching up to my limit each route, Pokemon depending. I'll be swapping out Pokemon to raise them evenly in order to be able to better customize my team to take on each gym. However, I'll be keeping certain Pokemon on my team until I have my final team, and then raise them from that point on.
 
Seth isn't a loner, he's just incredibly shy around the opposite sex :monster:

If he gets accepted that does sound like a good idea :)

Hah, this'll be fun then. :wacky: Best get your intro ready for when Martie's online, I think they're next post we're getting our Pokes.
 
Lol yeah, you're right...maybe i should look at what other people wrote as reference?
I don't think that's all that important unless you're going to interact with some of the other characters. I'd read them anyway, though.
 
Our two charas haven't done too much, they both seem to be wallflower types so they kinda shied away from the main group. I dunno how you wanna work with that lol maybe he noticed how they both just sort of gravitated outwards from the other group?
 
Yeah like, i was thinking that our characters were the ones left behind because we didn't speak up and interact with anyone.
 
That'll work too. I'm still thinking of something to build a post around, but if you go ahead then I can at least work off of that.
 
Sorry, I wanted to add more people into the little group I have going on but didn't know if the conversations would get overly confusing :(
 
Bios thus far that have not been approved, consider yourselves approved (I forget how many of you there are, I was going to post this last night, but I got somewhat wrapped up in other matters. xD) and ready to go. All positions that need to be filled are now filled, and I'm closing applications.

For those of you who still wanted to apply (I dunno, are there any?) I'll re-open apps once everyone has their first Gym Badge. You can be a trainer with a single Gym badge and a couple of Pokemon at a slightly higher level or something. Just let your desires be known in here and we can discuss it~

No lone rival characters. I want everyone to be with at least one other person. There is absolutely no point in participating if you're going to be by yourself 99% of the time. Occasionally breaking away from a group to do some training or meet up with someone else is acceptable, but I don't want people travelling alone. I might put a cap on how many posts you're allowed to be by yourself for. Obviously this cap would be a bit bigger for Gym Leaders, etc.

Next RP post I make, starters will be released, so you can bond with them...or rather, so they can bond with you. That'll be this afternoon or this evening, and the first three routes will have their data put up as well. We'll be getting properly underway just in time for the release of the new games tomorrow. Awesome timing is awesome. xD
 
Of course, I just was stating I wasn't going to accept any new players for now. xD
Also, regarding that - your levels for that should range between 70 and 74~

I'll be sorting things out tonight, if I can pull myself off Hyperdimension Neptunia...I'll also have some storyline ideas to share with you all, regarding Team Sol's first steps, etc~

Well, the plan was for me to travel with Squid, Himeno, and Noctis's characters, but my only worry is that I won't have the internet available from Saturday until like Thursday next week. Is there a way for me to be absent without holding the other characters back?
 
lol So Shinya/Erza, I'm thinking maybe our Poke's go to frolic together and bring the three of us together, considering how else are 3 shy characters going to bond and group up? :monster:

A good question...did you have something in mind? At the pace this RP is going to go (if the massive post-a-thon that occured prior to that rant in here is any indicator) by that point people may be at the first gym. I can ban people from going any further than Route 1 until you get back though, which would allow you to catch up?

Also, regarding an earlier question I neglected to answer: Gym Leaders/Elite Four members can hang around when they're all gone (although I don't plan on having Jennifer leave immediately - I'd like her to be the last to leave, if possible, plus it'll give the others time to get ahead a little bit, so we're not stumbling over one another constantly) if you want them to.

I plan on having a small event with Kyurem, Rose, Tobias, whichever Commander goes with him and anyone else who wants to tag along, at Mistheld Loch. Just for a little variety, and to introduce Team Sol as the antagonists. It'll be a very brief event, which may or may not involve a Ho-Oh sighting (still working things out - anyone got any ideas they'd care to share?) plus a full six-on-six battle if anyone feels like challenging Tobias and getting decimated by that delightful Hydreigon of his (it won't be Rose...their rematch will be something special, and won't come until much, MUCH later) can do so, as well.

For Team Sol Commanders - time to pick your poison, so to speak. Who wants to go with Tobias and be held in reserve for general things, and who wants to go after Raikou, Entei or Suicune, respectively? Since they're roaming NPCs, it's easy to move the Legendary Dogs around, I'll just give you a starting point, and awaaay you go. Since these dogs need to be captured to advance the story, you'll be keeping what you capture, as well. They'll only be Level 40, though.

I also need to work out something about quick-jumps...like, using Fly to get from one place to another. I might have it as a post-by-post thing. Still working out the kinks :hmmm:
 
Thoma will go after Suicune. Having him accompany Tobias would reveal his double nature as a gym leader and member of Team Sol, and I'd like to keep Thoma's identity as a Sol member under wraps from the good guys until later.

Also, I think it'd be interesting if the attack on the Lati's were done by either some random NPC members of Team Sol, or perhaps even one of the Commanders and a grunt (Obviously can't be Thoma as he would never approve of such a method)...give someone for Robert to go Brooklyn rage on =P And that the attack was to try and force the legendary dogs to come to the aid of their fellow legendaries. Just an idea.
 
First come, first served. Suicune suits his water-type theme anyway. xD

Although I might actually keep Tobias' involvement with Team Sol under wraps for the moment. If he goes by himself, he could just be the Champion, looking for Legendary Pokemon. Might make more sense. But I agree that having him with Tobias at random when he's not meant to stray too far from his Gym might be a bit hard to explain.

Keeping Thoma's identity a secret would be a good idea - no doubt he's going to know Rose, and once she discovers he works for Team Sol, she'll begin to guess the identity of it's leader...that could be interesting. Also, if you want to make a specific NPC Grunt (or if one of the other Commanders wants to pick this up, although it'd need to be a private affair, because Tobias wouldn't approve much of it either) then go for it, that sounds like a good idea to me~

I would like to blockade a town at one point - perhaps Rose could suspect Thoma after a conversation with him regarding the Champion, and he could stage having Team Sol occupy the town, and then assist her in breaking their control? That could be an event for when everyone gets to the second town...

Also, regarding the plans you mentioned earlier that involved Celebi - I had actually planned to write Celebi in at some point. A shrine at Bleu Forest, which could be expanded upon.
 
Well, could Farah accompany Celebi? It would explain her disappearance, and she might be reappearing looking to be as old as Simon. Would make things interesting. Also, I can certainly do the faked blockade, especially since the delivery of the Bell could be passing through the city there. But, wouldn't that be the third town? Thoma's the 3rd gym leader after all.
