“To the graduating class of *cough cough*, we wish you all good luck on your adventures!”
There was a roaring cheer throughout the Pokémon crowd. Parents hugged their children tightly, excited that their children were finished with their academy work.
They were now battle ready.
After all the festivities, the graduated class gathered in a room. Everyone was talking about how their trainer would evolve them to the ultimate state, or, how they would guaranty their trainer all of the gym badges. The volume was at a deafening level. You could barely hear anything in the room.
Finally, the professor slammed his hand on the table. Everyone fell silent.
“Today, you all are assigned a trainer!” He shouted loudly. All the Pokémon cheered at the statement.
Again, he had to control the crowd.
“You all are expecting your trainers to be highly skilled. What you fail to see, is that these trainers are straight out of their own academy!” He explained.
The Pokémon looked at each other quizzically. What did he mean, “New Trainers”? They were supposed to be the best! How are a bunch of newbies going to compete with professional gym trainers?
“You must cooperate with your trainer. He, or she, will train you to be the best that you can be! So, without further ado, I present to you…” The door opened at the left.
A boy in a red hat walked into the room. He wore a red vest and blue jeans, and a pair of old walking sneakers. He didn’t look very adventurous.
“This is Akamaru! He will be the trainer of group Ruby!” The professor announced. There were a couple paw claps, or feather flaps, but nothing much.
Next, a boy in a green headband walked in. This one wore a green vest, fingerless black gloves, and an orange backpack. His hair was black on the sides and back, but white on top. He also wore a pair of running shoes, perfect for adventure.
“This is Emerras! He will be the trainer of group Emerald!” The professor announced. This time, more claps and flaps could be heard through the group. When the clapping stopped, the professor continued.
“And finally, this is Indigo.” A girl with a blue bandana over her head walked into the classroom. She wore a new Pokémon backpack, modeled after a Pikachu. She pulled her right foot behind her left leg, and waved at the group. This sent even more applauding in the room. She had the confidence that all of them wanted in a trainer. Both Akamaru and Emerras crossed their arms in jealousy at the amount of applause she got. She was the popular one of the three. The professor cut off the cheering so he could finish.
“Each Pokémon will be assigned to a trainer. The trainer is in charge of teaching you the skills you require to better yourselves. Your job is to make your trainer proud!” The professor continued.
“Since you’re a beginning group, you will be given small jobs, like delivering letters, or documenting other Pokémon.” The professor drew on the chalkboard examples of what he was saying.
“As you progress in your jobs, and build up your skills, you will be given tougher jobs, such as protecting wealthy businessmen, or defending a mine from wild Pokémon attacks.” He drew a very pathetic group of zigazoons on the blackboard.
“And as you guys have probably guessed, you will participate in Pokémon battles along the way, defeating gym trainers, and other competitions. So, I wish you all the best of luck!”
With that, the professor left the room.
“Hey, don’t you still have to assign the groups?” Emerras called after the old man.
“That’s for you to decide!” The old man called as he walked down the hallway.
Akamaru and Indigo stood awkwardly in front of the group of Pokémon.
“Alright then…” Emerras said as he walked back to join the 2 other trainers.
“Let’s assign teams.” Akamaru added. Suddenly, Indigo jumped on top of the desk and shouted
“Who wants to be a part of team awesome!?!”
-------------
Map:
The map will most likely be the map used in Pokemon: Emerald, with some slight alterations (when I get to it.)
Players:
Players play as any Pokémon they choose, so long as that Pokémon is in its first stage.
For instance, if you want to play as Charizard, you have to start with Charmander.
Teams:
Each Pokémon will be assigned a team. Each team will consist of at least 3 or more Pokémon.
In the beginning, each team will be given a small task. For example,
Team Ruby is sent to catch a zigazoon.
Team Emerald is sent to Catch a starly (That’s a bird, right?)
And Team Sapphire is sent to catch a Magikarp.
The first mission is easy, but as each team grows in skill, the more difficult the mission.
Battles:
I’m not exactly sure how this will work.
My idea is to just have one person regulate the battle, saying if the Pokémon missed or hit, and other such battle situations.
The next suggestion is to use snow tunnels battle system.
But,
When you’re in a battle, make sure you react to what happens.
For instance, if a zigazoon uses tackle, but it misses.
-~-
Zigazoon attempted to jump on the Mudkip, but the mudkip jumed out of the way before he was hit.
-~-
Growlithe lit up the forest with a stream of fire, but the Starley flew up out of his range.
-~-
Tentacool used a supersonic move. The Charmander was hit directly, and became confused.
He looked around with blurry vision, attempted to pounce, but hit the ground rather than his opponent.
-~-
You get the idea.
Tournaments:
I still haven’t figured out the battle system, so tournaments are going to have to wait.
Aaaand I think that’s everything on gameplay. If you have any suggestions, don’t hesitate to speak.
Signing up:
Signing up will be different than my usual way that I do, since there isn’t an OOC. Instead, you’ll do it like normal people and post it here in the Pet Friendly: Main OOC.
-------------------
-Name-
Anything within reason. Keep in mind pets tend to take the last name of their human owners. Though note that simpler names are easier to remember, type out and spell correctly…for the other RP’ers.
-Character Type-
Is this a main character or a guest character?
-Species-
Choose your breed of Pokémon.
Make sure that the Pokémon is in its first stage.
You will have to update it by crossing out your original breed, then adding the evolved form.
-Age-
I don’t think it matters in the Pokémon world, so why should it matter here?
-Neighborhood-
Pokepets!, of course!
-Appearance-
How your character appears, and any bits of clothing it might be often seen wearing; for most pets this is just a collar though. One to three lines should be enough for most…but no more than two paragraphs. Try to let us visualize your character, but keep it concise!
Also, if your Pokémon is a cross bred Pokémon, make sure you say what it looks like.
If you’re really bad at explaining what it looks like (like me), make sure to add a photo of what he looks like.
-Personality-
The bread and butter of Pet Friendly! What is your character like? A fast talker? Slow minded, but strong? Happy and bubbly? It’s really up to you. The general question is: “How does your character act, in public and private?” But keep in mind that some of the best way to show off the character’s personality is through the RP! Keep things concise here.
Keep in mind that some Pokémon aren’t going to act bubbly (e.g, Mewtew)
Oh, and factor in the character’s personality when making the special stats bellow.
-Other Notes-
Any other minor details you want to add about your character. Character Backgrounds are NOT required but if you want to bring up a few important details this is the place to put them. Also keep in mind that characters with a backstory can be easier to write for.
-Battle Stats-
Or, interesting banana for short (giggles)
These stats are exactly what you’ll see in game.
Say that I’m a growlithe.
In the beginning, he’ll have
[Roar] and [Ember]
When he learns new moves, add them to the list.
Your move lists are only 4.
So, if you have a cross breed
you need to factor in what it’ll be able to do.
For instance, If I have an Arcanine mixed with a Ninetales, his moves would be:
[Roar] [Confusion Ray]
[Ember] [Quick Attack]
this is just a rough move list from what I can remember, but this is the idea.
When he’s starting off, he’ll most likely be just a growlithe, because the 2 don’t have a difference in attacks.
-Stats-
This is based off the pokemon stat system.
When a pokemon levels up, it’ll say that it gained some points, making it stronger.
I’ll have to look it up again, but this is what you’ll enter.
You will have to update it every time your character levels up, though.
To those that are playing Im sorry but I would like it if youd post your characters Here one last time. if you are to control a pokemon trainer please add that into your CS.
