Had an idea a while back, and thought I'd try it here.

Players in this RP will be playing, of course, Pokemon trainers of various backgrounds. They'll basically have to deal with a plot of some kind. I do have something up my sleeve with that regard, but I'm going to keep that hidden now.

What I'll need from interested parties, in addition to the expression of interest, is what region you'd like for the RP to be set in.

EDIT: Remembered the region names, so I've added a poll.

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

I'm interested.

The only Pokemon game I own is Crystal for the GameBoy Colour, so the only two regions I know of are Johto and Kanto. In that respect, I'd say Johto.

Only Pokemon game I own is...
Oh wait, lemme dig out the gameboy box.

Okay, it's Silver. I used to own Blue, Red, and Yellow but I sold those for warcrack money.

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

Interest shown :D

And for the region? Guess what region the few lines of this theme tune is from;

Everybody wants to be a master,
Everybody wants to show their skills.
Everybody wants to get there faster,
make their way to the top of the hill.
Each time you try,
Gonna get a little be better.
Every step you climb,
Is one more step up the ladder.

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

I never got into the show.

Kanto FTW, that's the one I know best. Because I literally had a combined total of 500 play hours between Red, Blue, and Yellow.

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

Two questions: 1) Is Kanto where pokemon blue and red are based in?
2) Is this normal pokemon or the Pokegirl variant where all pokemon are female anthropomorphs who need regular "taming" (read sex) in order to keep from going feral?

I'm interested and basically would prefer the original pokemon region. The second question is more to know what to expect.

If memory serves, Kanto is the original region. And it is going to be the normal version. I'd rather keep things from turning into a cyber-fest.

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

Okay, to answer q1;

Kanto = red/blue/yellow/firered/leafgreen
Johto = gold/silver/crystal
Hoenn = ruby/sapphire/emerald
Sinnoh = diamond/pearl

Dunno about q2 though I'd assume its a straight up pokemon RP from what Wolf has asked me.

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

Okay, at approximately 2100 EST I'll be closing the poll and declaring the starting region. Depending on the results, I may open up the others later. Also to occur at the time of that statement will be the character template. At this point, I'm leaning towards a more open, "dice-less" RP.

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

Yeah that was the Johto theme, the most rocking theme of any Pokemon series.

And what the hell? Kanto is winning so far?! Okay, Kanto may have the best starter Pokemon but Johto is the best region.

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

Poll will remain open until the determined time, but I'm posting character template info now.

Character Info:

Name:
Gender:
Age:

Physical Description:

Background:

Initial Companion: (Choose ONE from the following list)

Kanto Region
Bulbasaur
Charmander
Squirtle
Pidgey
Nidoran ♀
Nidoran ♂
Abra
Machop
Geodude

Johto Region
Chikorita
Cyndaquil
Totodile
Sentret
Ledyba
Togepi

Hoenn Region
Treecko
Torchic
Mudkip
Poochyena
Zigzagoon
Seedot
Ralts

Sinnoh Region
Turtwig
Chimchar
Piplup
Starly
Kricketot
Shinx
Buizel

I know I've given more choices that the usual three starters. This was intentional.

Oh, wild encounters and evos are going to happen at intervals determined by 'whenever the fuck I get around to it' (i.e., at random). For simplicity's sake, I'm also going to ignore the whole "catch all" and "badges" stuff. Don't worry, I've got a couple of plot ideas to cover that. If you want to have your character working on completing a 'Dex, that's fine with me. It's just not going to be the main focus.

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

Name: Granth Savael
Gender: Male
Age: 18

Physical Description: A lanky youth with small mane of brown hair, Granth looks somewhat like your average rookie trainer. His skin is still smooth and light, lacking the the tanned, weathered look most trainers eventually get. What sets him slightly apart from others, however, is the fact that he wears a brown leather greatcoat which often swirls in the wind when he walks. Contrary to appearance, the greatcoat isn't worn in an attempt to look 'cool,' but rather because it is waterproof and when the front is closed up it does a good job and keeping him mostly dry. To top it off, he wears a wide brimmed hat which completes his rain gear while at the same time making him look even more like a trainer wannabe.

Background: Born in Fuchsia City, Granth has often gone outings into the safari zone with his parents. Many summer days during his childhood would be spent watching Tauros' roam across the plains while picnicking with his family. Eventually, he reached the age where many begin their pokemon journey even if they are only on the road for a few months before deciding that that life isn't for them. Granth, of course, decided that he would like to try as well, so his parents took him on one last trip to the safari zone, but this time, instead of a picnic, they would catch Granth his first pokemon. Deciding that they wanted Granth to start out with a pokemon that wasn't as common as those near the entrance to the area, Granth's parents led him deep out into the safari zone eventualy reaching a small lake in the north west corner. It was here, when everyone stopped to take a break for lunch, that Granth found the small form of a squirtle sleeping under a cluster of driftwood on the shore. Having the safari ball that his parents had handed him to catch his first pokemon, Granth tapped the ball lightly against the pokemon and caught it. Thus Granth aquired his first pokemon and was ready to start his journey. (Although it is likely that his parents had wanted him to have started with something a bit stronger, but not everything goes as planned.)

Initial Companion:
Squirtle:D

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

Okay, since I guess it wasn't clear:

When you post a character, remove the list of pokemon and put the name of your choice in place of the text after "Initial Companion:"

It makes things easier to read that way.

Re: Interest and Set-up Thread for a Possible Pokemon-based RP

Ralts may come later, if things get expanded.

Although...I might consider allowing character from outside the starting region. Let me think on it.
