"Pokemon: Renean Force"

Welcome one and all. Pokemon lovers, come in, come in, to what I hope will be the best pokemon Rp out there!

It's realistic, and i made it to where it feels like a story, and not a game, so come in and see for yourself!

I'm in! I submitted my character too.

I'm 'siked! I've never been in a pokemon RP that actually made sense and wasn't just a written playthrough of the games so.. should be fun.

Sorry for the wait...my router actually gave out due to the sheer amount of internets going through it.

What a hero. :) So yeah, if you need a co-GM, I'm still here.

(continued from Interest Checks)
Yeah, little mechanics like these as well as the level of adhesion to the video games in general is something any aspiring Pokemon GM will want to work out beforehand. The way ChaoticMarin and I ran Down With The Crown was similar, but everyone finds that balance that works best for them. Here's what we agreed to:

-Pokemon were restricted to having access to four moves at a time. Though they could certainly know more, they had to consciously swap out readied techniques in training sessions between fights. If you expand even to five moves, some of the more versatile Pokemon end up being capable of having an answer for everything.

-HM moves didn't count towards the four-move limit (with the possible exception of Surf) because they are specifically designed to facilitate the trainer's desire to get from place to place. Much like a human would undergo CPR certification, Trainers needed to be certified holders of these machines after a short training course in proper use of the technique. I like the idea of the training-video mechanic, though. Rare Candy Treatment also has a hilarious take on why moves that can be learned through HMs are resistant to being overwritten. (Author's note: I've tried this with a Salamence, who learns Fly through level-up in Ruby and Sapphire, and it's treated as if it had learned it via the hidden machine.)

-Like the Pokemon Adventures manga (which I admit I'm unfamiliar with), a Pokemon's "level" was a much more fickle thing than any RPG system worth its salt would have you believe. The example that keeps coming up is the idea of a person's power level in the Dragonball series. Indeed, in the Battle Arcade in Platinum and HG/SS, levels can be artificially raised and lowered.

-Hard numbers are to be avoided at all costs. Grinding is hard enough when all the calculations are done automatically. I learned that the hard way, let me tell you.

I'm glad your excited. I am as well

'm working on a way to incorporate a way for trainers to make money, like odd jobs you can do

and, before I go to bed, im going to put the map up in the places area, and all the cities. this is gunna take a while

EDIT: oops, sorry QB, i posted just after you, it seems

depending on how many to join, i may not be in. If oh, say, 3 or 4 more people join, then you may join the ranks of the GM world

Edit number 2: just caught your edit. Ill DEFIANTLY be keeping those thoughts in my head

The world map is up. Just go to the places tab, then Renea Region.
And if ANYONE says a WORD about what the region has an eerily similar shape too, Arceus help me, Ill-....

never mind.. Im still working on the cities.

Edit number 2: im sorry, im running on empty, and I need tp sleep. I have about 1/2 of the cities done, and I'll have them done tomorrow. Promise. I also need to make an npc roster

I like your second idea, QB, about requiring certifications to use HM's outside of battle.

Im iffy on the move limit, im leaning towards none, because that would give more realism than only four. I can say that, if you don't use a move for a certain period of time, you'll lose it, and have to retrain if you want it back.

good night. Everything should be done tomorrow. Tell your friends, everyone!

Submitted my trainer; I hope everything is in order with her. ^ ^; I know she doesn't have the standard past for a trainer, but I hope it still works. If not, let me know and I'll change whatever is needed.
