Quick Question:

Would there still be evolutionary items? I would assume so since they are bought, usually with BP, in-game. Also, would a pokemon need said item to evolve in this RP or no?

Edit:

Let me add, how would one go about obtaining an evolutionary item in this RP?

Things like Shiny Stone and such? Yes.

Things that involve trade though, have been axed and instead changed to simple level up. This is because, Steelix creates a logical fallacy in this tradition given the fact that it already will naturally evolve into a Onix without human intervention if left alone long enough. And yes, I can see an argument about how the trade with Metal Coat might simply speed up a process that would take many years to just seconds, but still... it's a big hassle and I never really liked trade evolutions that much because it's just a marketing technique to give a reason for there to be two versions of games that are, honestly, largely the same in content and plot.

So yeah... Stone based evolutions and such are a thing, but Trade/ held item ones aren't

Welp, I'd say that my Character is done for now. Link to it for convenience is here.

If I need to make any adjustments, tell me and I'll work on implementing 'em.

By the way, out of curiosity, what happened to Mewtwo? Cerulean Cave is full of strong Pokemon, after all. He wouldn't be helpless. Did he get killed by the Shadow 'Mons as well?

So from all of the coliseum games there has been Shadow lugia, entei, suicune, raiko, Team mystic, Team valor, Team instinct, and then shadow mewtwo in Pokken. Needless to say, at this point I wouldn't be surprised if most legendaries have turned shadow or at last some of them.

Change out Sky Attack for a weaker move. Aside from that, everything else is fine.

I just had a horrible image come across my mind. If we have to face the Permafrost King, we are so screwed. If you don't know who that is, stay ignorant.

Commander, you of all people should know by now it's never a good idea to give Hosts new ideas to torture people with...

But nah, I'm not the type to go ret-conning other people's old PCs from long dead RPs. Only my own. I'm very touchy when it comes to intellectual property and that sort of thing.

inb4 shadow mewtwo

Mewtwo? Let me tell you about mewtwo- Mewtwo is the center of just about everything that involved Lt.Surge in the old world of SoA. During the Heresy Conflicts approximately 42 years ago, Giovanni created a false god to use a weapon of mass destruction in his war to seize power from the church- that False God being... you guessed it. Mewtwo

Long Story short, Surge and his lone surviving partner killed the original Mewtwo during the Battle of the Sevii Islands at the end of the war. Hence why he was proclaimed as a war hero and put on a pedestal within the SoA universe.

But wait, there's more- there wasn't just one Mewtwo. There were TWO! when a certain someone brought him back to life (or rather, made a clone of him with the same soul and memories) many years after the war and surge becoming a gym leader, guess who got to the bottom of things and killed Mewtwo, again, before another war could start... you guessed it-

This glorious bastard right here...

185px-HeartGold_SoulSilver_Lt_Surge.png-And a couple of Vermillion City Police Officers, but they weren't that important...

So, needless to say, the chances of you fighting a Mewtwo are slim and none... because if a third one somehow shows up, well... Surge may be dead along with the rest of humanity, but do you know who isn't?

You guys...realize how bad it is to give me ideas, right? Like really, for the newer folks it's understandable, but for those among the Old Blood around here, you guys should know better than to give a host live ammunition...

--------------------

@Kenny- The only real issue is the Cape under the description. There's a logic fallacy there- you say his back flames are constantly active, ergo any type of overcoat/cape/cloak etc. should be engulfed by them fairly quickly unless they're flame retardant... which it obviously isn't given you mentioned it being singed- implying that at some point in time, it was indeed partially consumed by flames. Change it to a scarf or something less likely to be caught and it should fix the hole. Aside from that, everything else is decent enough for me to give it a pass

@Grizzly- Very interesting. You are approved. and here- http://thousandroads.net/misc/metronome

I will expect you to use this for any Metronoming you do during the RP... of course, this all based completely on the honor system, and if you don't, I've no way of knowing aside from when I notice if the moves you draw are consistently a bit too perfect for the situation at hand...

anyways, for those who have WIP sheets still and have yet to finish- I suggest you hurry it up. Slots are filling in faster than I expecting... We'll reach the max capacity very soon, if I'm not mistaken...with these 3 new additions (as soon as Kenny and Swamp get those changes I requested done), brings us to 10. My optimal number is 12- I'm sure some smart RPer out there can guess why with a bit of simple math My absolute stretch limit is 14 (Which is only invoked for people who expressed interest and reached out directly to me before the OOC was even up due to them having IRL time constraints and duties that would keep them busy during the normal sign-up phase)

RIP Mewtwo. You'll always be cool to me....

Though I do wonder where Mewtwo would fit in the power scale. I feel as if he's right between the minor legends and the gods, somewhat of a demi-god of sorts(Which the 'False God' title represents perfectly). After all, his BST is 680 and has been portrayed as extremely powerful, both game-lore wise and in the anime.

Oh, yeah, and Yagami is accepted to. I was still a bit skeptical, but after seeing how well the backstory you made actually meshed with and explained the personality... I don't think I'll have much issue out of you.

Huh, I actually still have it in me. Glad my imagination isn't dead yet, even if my character is basically a non-evil Jhin.

I'm relieved it worked out in the end, and I'll make do with not disappointing when the real stuff debuts.

He's very Jhin yea, but making him not as you know... interested in murder is very interesting, since a more benevolent version of Jhin could be a very... calming character honestly. Very hopeful. It'll be intersting to see how you play him out. ((also, I'd not worry about rust. those who write, it rarely entirely leaves ya. You just have rough spots. Hell... if I let it get to me I'd never write since I think I'm always doing an awful job and yet... people refuse to let me think that XD. So, if I can keep continuing in my craft, well anyone can for sure.~))

After all, his BST is 680 and has been portrayed as extremely powerful, both game-lore wise and in the anime.

When the Church of Arceus gained Intel after Giovanni unleashed him the first time, they classified it as a False-Deity capable of rivaling the likes of Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyruem- whom were Arch Angels directly under Arceus and not technically full gods themselves, thus not included anywhere in the pantheon, but still powerful enough to theoretically rival and/or surpass any of his children were it to come to blows, such as Ho-oh, Lugia, Palkia, etc... which is because they were tasked with enforcing God's will, both on earth and among his children, each of them weilding the raw power of a single concept such as Truth, Idealism, and Void or Wuji.

Ergo, Mewtwo from day one was classified as being as powerful as a full fledged god and given an Execution Priority Level higher than even Giovanni himself who had created the monstrosity and quite probably could've had more like it in the works. Things grew so dire that the Top Brass of the Kanto Armed Forces, under pressure from the Kantonian Head of State who himself was under pressure from the Church, were even willing to resort to using an Azoth-Nucleic Bomb to destroy the sevii islands (and all those troops present) but also kill Mewtwo in the process...

So much pressure infact, that the deaths of their own men and citizens would be deemed to be "Acceptable Losses" in the face of the victory that would be attained... and the lives that would be lost if they didn't act and allowed the war to rage further (*Cough* Remind you of any bombings that took place in a land which Kanto was culturally and geologically based off? *Cough*)

Until...

185px-HeartGold_SoulSilver_Lt_Surge.png10181-Shiny-Mega-Ampharos.png

The greatest Dream Team in all of Kanto got shit down without having to kill thousands of service men and women and destroy many more civilians. Surge left the military and vowed to never enter the killing field again though, after that little incident. It was a rather...polarizing decision at the time and in the years following. Even affected the next election in the region... but Geopolitics aren't important anymore... nor are the massive spoilers I am dropping for Surge of Vermillion

Oh Strat you should know me well enough that I keep anything I am truly, truly terrified all to myself that and I'd honestly be surprised if you didn't think of something similar to that sadistic king ahead of time. One of these days we really need to create another Poke war.

Oh I remember that! I had my friend make an account just to be the other ruler of our nation. x3

I would totally do another one, though it'd have to be more elaborate in terms of rules kuz that thing could be exploited so hard.

Permission to land aboard the SoA RP.


  Reveal hidden contents

Name: Arthur Pyke

Species: Wartortle

Gender: M


Ability: Rain dish

Level: 34


Starting Moveset: Rapid spin, Withdraw, Water Pulse, Bite


Appearance: A Wartotle with a lot of scars.

Arthur's tail is bigger and fluffier than a common Wartortle. The back of his shell has a huge slash mark across it like something tries to gut him out of his shell. Arthur's left ear is chopped off and has a noticeable bite mark to prove it. His left eye is shut close and has a running scar across it. Arthur wears a khaki bandana that covers his left eye and a draping cloak to conceal these traits from his past life.


Personality: Arthur is a brave, stubborn, natural sea-born pokemon. He has a bit of a sailor's mouth when he speaks and brazen to an extent without intending to be malicious of any sorts. Despite his vulgar behavior, He's easy to get along with and his loyalty is unquestionable. Arthur truly cares about duty and his promise to his parents: exploration and the value of Pokemon life.


Personal History: Arthur is a free poke' with no trainer to command him, His loyalty stands within his fellow Pokemon inhabiting the Orange islands. Arthur is young Wartortle who lives on an island which was hidden and remain untouched from the assaults from the shaded pokemon.This island is one of the main distributors of berries to the other neighboring islands ever since the shadow pokemon attacked. Arthur's family comes from a lineage of Explorers. Arthur has younger 2 brothers and a sister. He is the eldest son of a Blastoise and a Kingdra.


Arthur loves traveling. He got his enthusiasm in traveling and exploring the world from his late father and mother, famous expeditionists in their island who got lost in the sea and was never heard from again.

The young Wartortle has a sense of adventure, just like his Father. He joined in with the shipping business at a young age in their island's expedition in shipping and distributing supplies from all over the Orange Isles; Making sure that pokemons around every island won't starve to death in these difficult times when the shadow pokemon attacked.


Arthur made a lot of connections in the orange islands and was, later on, promoted to their island's official Navigator and earn the title "Murkrow's eye". Traveling with him is the island's fearless Lapras fleet, they bravely swim the deep sea and across the Pokemon ocean in distributing goods from all over the archipelago.


Everything was going well until he made the wrong call on that one fateful day, They took a wrong turn and were spotted and got stuck down by a school of black Sharpedos and Carvanha in the middle of the sea.

They fought valiantly but alas the Sea gods has forsaken them, His crew got defeated n that bloody sea battle. Arthur sunk into the blue abyss. Arthur was believed to be dead along with his crew.


Fortunately, The reports of his death have been greatly exaggerated, Arthur survived that ordeal and was able to tell the tale. He felt intense remorse about his crew and decided to leave the orange islands for now. Arthur keeps a low profile as he seeks refuge in the Sinnoh region, hearing tales and rumors of the resistance living in the sky pillar. He decided to migrate and join this revolution, hoping things will change for the better and redeem himself.
