POKEMON: LEGENDS RP (SIGN UP AND OOC THREAD)
http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x312/aboy2000/pokemon.jpg

The goal in the RP is to be the best, so work for it. Im sure stories and plots will develop.

1. Have Fun! but follow rules

2. This is a general RPG. Please watch your language and conduct.

3. Members are allowed up to three different characters. This is so you can experiment with playing different type s of characters. You can be a pokemon trainer, a pokemon coordinator (Hoenn Region), a member of Team Rocket, a member of Team Magma or Aqua (Hoenn Region), Pokemon Ranger (this is a law enforcement person more along the lines of Lance in the Red Gyarados episodes not an Officer Jenny. Pokemon Rangers (coming soon) can be found in any Region.) Members can also play as a pokemon (must start as a basic pokemon). Human characters can also change 'jobs', so to speak. As a pokemon trainer, human characters can make choices of whether to later join Team Rocket, Magma, Aqua or become a Pokemon Ranger.



4. Human characters: Trainers must start in one of the three pokemon regions. It is your choice of which region you want. Trainers who wish to battle one another have a choice of either single or double battles. If you're traveling with other trainers then one of them can also participate in a double battle. Trainers can also allow their pokemon to travel outside of their pokeballs for either temporarily (kinda like psyduck or wobbuffet) or permanently (like Pikachu and Togepi). Trainers can also join gyms as gym trainers. Trainers can even keep their affiliation even on the road!

5. Pokemon characters: Pokemon characters can travel around on their own or in groups. If you want to play a pokemon character then you should state in your bio whether you wish to remain wild or not. If you're a wild pokemon then you can be captured, you can also choose a trainer or you can remain wild. Human characters are NOT allowed to try and capture member pokemon characters without their consent! Pokemon characters must start out as unevolved pokemon. You can also choose whether or not to evolve (particularly if you're a pokemon that requires a stone or item in order to evolve). You cannot be a legendary pokemon.

6. This brings us to our next topic: Evolution. We are not incorporating levels into this RPG. However, please keep it somewhat realistic. Pokemon must gain experience in battles before they can evolve. In other words, you can't get your charmander, let it out of its ball and then type that evolves into a charmeleon. Also, consecutive evolutions are NOT allowed. Pokemon that have more than one evolution (like the starters) cannot evolve twice in once go to reach their top forms. You also cannot skip a stage. You cannot have a charmander evolve straight into a charizard.

7. Things are different here! This RPG is going to make some changes to classic pokemon rules. First is party size. Trainers may carry up to twelve pokemon in their party. However, you can only use up to six in a battle. Gym battle rules are at the discretion of the Gym Leader (Gyms later). Another change is moves. Nintendo has only allowed 4 moves for a pokemon in its games (probably because of storage issues). This is NOT the case here. Pokemon here do NOT have to forget moves in order to make room for new ones. You just add them. If you have a pokemon capable of carrying you across water, in the air, or moving a rock then use that. Be realistic, though. Unlike the Game Boy games, you cannot Fly on a tiny little pidgey. The pokemon you use for these tasks must be capable of them. The last major change to be made is trade evolutions (gengar, golem, steelix, etc.). Pokemon like haunter, kadabra, machoke and graveler can now evolve either through friendship or trade. Pokemon that require an item to evolve (steelix, sloking, etc)... can evolve if their trainer has the needed item. Trading them is not necessary!

8. Battles: Battles are pretty straightforward. Two trainers agree to the terms. However, items are NOT allowed during a battle unless the Pokemon is holding the item! About Gym Battles: Each gym has its own webpage with a list of pokemon the gym leader has. This does not mean all their pokemon will be used in the gym match! Every gym leader decides on the battle conditions, whether one-on-one, 3-on-3 or 6-on-6. Gym Leaders are forbidden from using items during matches! I must insist on this rule! Pokemon can only use items they are holding in battle!

9. Legendary Pokemon: You may not role play a Legendary Pokemon. They will become available on RARE occassions! Trainer characters must have completed at least ONE REGION before they can have a Legendary Pokemon.

10. Capturing Pokemon: A player must battle a wild pokemon in order to capture it. If it's an NPC pokemon, the player can act out the whole battle. However, a manager must decide if you capture it. Player Pokemon battles are up to that member whether they're captured. If a Pokemon faints, it can be captured. Putting a Pokemon to sleep or paralyzing it before it faints will allow it to be captured.

11. You can level up your character or pokemon. To level, is by traveling, training, battling also.When you get to level up, you can gain health points and stregnth points to your Pokemon or level up your character. When battling you can only batte other trainers with a level aorund yours.

12. When Traveling, you may go to any place known in the Pokemon World. Travel realistic.

13. In the event of a tournament or contest, they will be posted in the main RP thread. You must travel to that place if not there yet. Traveling should take about 15 posts. Make sure your posts are descriptive. All contests will be posted 5 days in advance.

14. While Rping have at least a paragraph post. Be discriptive. Be fair and reasonable. No OOC Posts unless they are with a RP. Be respectful also, that important. Finally be professional when RPing so we can keep the quality of the RP really good. BTW no, goddmodding, so you cant keep dodgimg attacks, and winning. So dont be upset if you lose a few times

Haha pokemon, I used to love that show when I was younger, I hate it now though since every episode is pretty much the same and much too predictable.
The games are still magnificent though, just finished Diamond.

But what I wanted to ask was.....

I'm thinking of joining but I'm not sure of how this RP will work, is it like a combination of fanfiction like stories from the users here or will it be more like the anime where users could form groups and travel together.

secondly, about the starters, it might be better and more logical to use the version starters for each region.
Since starting with a second stage evolution like butterfree is kinda weird.

Also no Sinnoh?, that's the most interesting region there is but also it might be better to use a single region for the RPers to use, otherwise it might get a bit boring if you are the only Kanto player for example and there is no one else to RP with so you're just writing Fan Fictions over and over again.

Cheena
10-15-2008, 05:50 PM
Thanks okay, I will cut it down to one region and you can meet up with other people and form groups. Yeah, there is potentail to make groups.

DB_Explorer
10-15-2008, 05:51 PM
... id also want to ask about what Rpers can bring in, since some of my ideas invole a less...idealized world of Pokemon (one where Kanto,Johto and the like are whats their instead of the islands of japan)

Cheena
10-15-2008, 05:53 PM
Well, you wont be restircted to just those places, you can go to any place in the pokemon world... that has been revealed

StrawHat4Life
10-15-2008, 05:58 PM
How will player vs player battles be resolved? Not many people like to lose after all.

Cheena
10-15-2008, 06:00 PM
hopefully the battles will be monitered to keep godmodding from happening. It is partof the be fair and reasonable rule

DB_Explorer
10-15-2008, 06:01 PM
Well, you wont be restircted to just those places, you can go to any place in the pokemon world... that has been revealed

ok... well in my variation, groups like Team rocket or Magma are actual threats, whose success has caused copy cats, forcing the formation of Counter terrorism units. there's more to my idea but most of it is dependent on knowledge of the rest of the world (under the consideration that all the regions of Pokemon given are in fact one country, war would not be an issue since if you allow WW2 to happen then the Pokemon version of japan still has article nine...)

...........maybe i've read to many Military/political thriller novels

Cheena
10-15-2008, 06:03 PM
well yeah, i meant you can got to like other regions, orange islnads, places like that

DB_Explorer
10-15-2008, 06:07 PM
well yeah, i meant you can got to like other regions, orange islnads, places like that

yes i know, what i meant, was with things like law enforcement could we make it so their are things like Counter terrorism teams ( i keep thinking of a Pikachu in a black hawk repelling onto Team rocket HQ's roof in a helmet and combat vest.. along with people equipped with MP-5s)

becuase i wanted to have my mother ( a scientist) get kidnapped, then i end up working with a CTU agent for the Kanto regional government.

Actually i was going to have it start with them joining up, basically The police tell William they will handle it, he basically tells them he is going to go after the people who kidnapped his mom, Robert gets sent to make sure he doesn't get killed, and since he might find a lead...
