Yo Boss.

So, the plot is about getting to the Pokemon League, right? Then, in that case, we'd need to get Gym Badges. How would the roles of the Gym Leaders play out? Will be take control of the Leaders when we battle them, or will one of the RPMs take on the role of them? Also, wouldn't it be kind of a drag having each member of the group battle the Gym Leaders when they reach each town? That would involve the Leaders' Pokemon hardly getting any rest from the previous fight. Not only this, but what about when they reach the Pokemon League? Will they each have to battle through the Elite Four and then fight the Master?

Thanks.

I've a question about the points system. Would the number of characters required to get points be cumulative, or would it be per post? For example:

Post 1:
1400 characters.
= 1 point.

Post 2:
1600 characters.
= 1 point.

Overall = 3000 characters.

Would we get an extra point for the other 1000 unused characters? If so, I recommend players keep a character count for each post at the end of every post, and an overall character count kept somewhere in their trainer card, as well as links to each post they make in the trainer card too. If the points are only for every post and any unused characters are lost, then this doesn't have to happen.

So, what happens at the cutoff date? All reservations are lost, or are you going to keep going and let them finish? I'd advise the harsher of those two options: If they don't get an SU in before the RP starts and we let them in regardless, then we may wind up doing something similar to what's going on in Blue Thread: Eli's random Time-Traveling shenanigans, which is getting hard to do. Not like the whole of Blue Team and I myself haven't been guilty of this already.

Also, is the character bonus culuminative? Like, if I make a post with 3000 characters, is that +3 points? And before you ask, YES. There WILL be people that go well above and beyond 1000 Characters.

so there can only be one trainer per job class, why so?

I guess it's because Dredd didn't want to RP 9 Aerial Artists, Or have too many Light/Dark Mages. I guess he also wanted a diverse mix of characters. Whatever, the Grass Ace Trainer Class has Porygon, Hitmonlee, and Snorlax, so that's what I'd take if I were you.

On another note, I'd also reherse grammar and spelling. Better RPers have better grammar, and it's a fact.

EDIT: Scratch that, Gmandiddy reserved the Grass Ace Trainer. You're stuck with Fire Ace and Earth Trainer.

EDIT2: Say, in GCeA Yellow, can we TRADE any Pokemon and keep the traded Pokemon, even if they're out of our potential selections (Like, the Earth Trainer trades his Graveler to the Light Mage, who sends back a Kadabra, which both evolve and they both keep the opposite Pokemon?)?

[5TailedDemonLizard]

Just to clear things up for you guys about the character count.

It is for ONE post.

Say you write 3,475 characters. That's 3 points for that post. If you write 1,200 for the next one, you only get one point. You get points for the number of characters IN THAT SPECIFIC POST.

At least this is what I assume since this rp seems a lot like Speed's.

Sans awesomesauce Hybrid Pokemon, then yes. It is astonishingly similar.

On another note...Someone read and answer the edits in my previous post.

this job system stinks there is only 1 job class left and it does not even have a list of available pokemon, there is no way there can be 2 arial artists, but there can be 4 ace trainers! i dont get it

3 Ace Trainers-and one for each type. The Grass, Water and Fire Ace Trainers are ALL DIFFERENT. The Earth Trainer is the only job type left that isn't an Ace Trainer, and the only Ace Trainer left is the Fire-Type Ace Trainer. So there are two left. The Ace Trainer's Pokemon are on the post below where the Earth Trainer's Pokemon are...Pick between the Fire Ace and the Earth Trainer and RESERVE ONE NOW.

MEH, if i dont get to be a mage i dont wanna play with you anymore, and you dont get to visit my birthday party

but why cant there just be two of every class then, and what is the difference between a fire spinner and an ace trainer of fire

[Latio-Nytro]

ARE YOU EVEN READING THE SU PAGES?! Look at their descriptions and their Pokemon selections, they are very different.

Seriously, you're not really thinking this through, and reading through the whole thing. My Fire Spinner is so used to terrible living conditions he can live off of GRASS. Not even water, he can live entierly off of GRASS. That beats Psychic powers any day of the week, personally.

There's a pretty major difference between the two; Fire Spinners are extremely adept at handling heat and using fire effectively, Ace Trainers merely have lots of knowledge and skills in the type they are using.

I assume the reason there cannot be more than one of each class is to keep things interesting; you don't want to have the exact same job description and Pokemon as another person, do you?

On another note, I can't wait to begin this. I think it's going to be fun interacting with everyone's character. :)

THIS. That, and in the Fire Spinner's case, they come from really harsh enviroments, so they're expected to really have good talents. The Water Specialist would have extreme skill in swimming, the Aerial Artist is really fast (as is her Pokes), the Earth Trainer is VERY physically strong and has Pokemon to match. Ace Trainers probably have Pokedexes-which rock because your character shouldn't know too much about Pokemon from other regions if you're not from that region, and if you are, Kanto Pokemon would be very foregin. The Mages have Psychic Skills JUST TO KEEP UP with them.

Besides, Gold, you can always ask MGS for his Light Mage roll, or 5TDS for her Dark Mage roll. I have doubts they'll give their positions up, but I guess they would consider it at least.
