    Ask to Join Pokémon Ranger, Almia goes old school. Discussion thread.

    We only use this thread if we have anything to OOC, otherwise the action happens in the main thread. As soon as we get a sign of life from Sarah we're ready to set off and find some adventure.

    Ask to Join Pokémon Ranger, Almia goes old school. RP thread.

    It was barely a minute until Celia arrived, with Zian already hopping around happily. The Lycanroc still kept its distance from people a little, but it had become less cautious ones it got used to being around the ranger group. As it was skipping through the weeds something big and grey came...

    Ask to Join Pokémon Ranger, Almia goes old school. RP thread.

    Jake was mentally evaluating the past few days. Celia had recovered from her accident and had made good progress in her situational awareness, Frank was being his confident self and Wynter was bonding nicely with her new partner. Jake and the hairball hadn't gotten off to the best of starts, but...

    @PeachyPie: Thanks for restarting us. Is life letting you find time to make another post?

    Ask to Join Pokémon Ranger, Almia goes old school. Discussion thread.

    Out of character anyone can start with up to two partners (as long as they're not super overpowered or flying mounts, or legendaries, or mega evolutions, stuff like that), Hydra added an in character detail that (at least in Frank's experience) most trainees start without. I'm all for everyone...

    I figure it's fine. I can motivate why I'm not breaking the spirit of the rules, and I'm not making a habit of it. Basically. Find a moment in my post or anyone else's that follows. Or create a moment yourself, like "in the evening with everyone around a campfire". DarkHydraT described...

    O, no, I double posted because I figured I ended at kind of a dead point and had a way to fix it, not because you took a few hours.

    Okay, it's maybe more of a time speedup. The goal is to let everyone have one or maybe two posts and then one of us posts an adventure hook. I'll do that unless somebody beats me to it. There's a few in game days here to work your character in it somewhere. Anything from "Taylor was already...

    Bam. Taylors entry into the story can maybe tie into this stuff as well, get us all on the same page.

    "Okay everyone, well done. There are some lessons to be learned from today, but first things first. Let's get that Pichu and this Glameow checked out, and let's get all the wet rangers some dry clothes. We're not in the business for luxury, but where it's available I'll take it. After that we...

    Ask to Join Pokémon Ranger, Almia goes old school. Discussion thread.

    Looks good. Welcome to the club. As a relatively new recruit you can choose to join the story as part of the current batch of completely new arrivals or you can come in as a trainee returning to bootcamp island after spending some time with one or more teams in the field. In addition to that you...

    The next few minutes were not Jake's happy time. The waves and wind kept bobbing the rope just out of his reach, which was very limited because of his lack of grip on the wall he was clinging to. He could jump or swim for the rope, but his hands were too cold to properly hold on for the entire...

    With a history in farm work and some skill in handling Pokémon. Specialized in search and rescue, at your service.

    Now that you mention it, I have no idea if this world has TM's. They're supposedly some sort of digital CD-like technology right? But we can definitely do move tutors, learning from other Pokémon or the ranger and their partner figuring it out together. We don't need to define things like...

    Jake's thoughts, 30 seconds ago: "In her hair? Isn't this stuff supposed to... Yes, it what is she... Okay I'm not sure if there's a better way but Holy Hoppip!" Jake's mind took maybe a second to rattle past the options. Ones you've done something a few times you get pretty good at quickly...

    Jake is looking over the edge, one hand on a nearby rock for balance, as Lefty lowers Wynter down. The ranger is mumbling to himself: "Steady, steady, looks good, uhmmm, okay..." (OOC: You're the one on the line, so I'll let you describe the action from up close.)

    Jake looked over the rope work. Catching his breath, but not letting it slow him down. This looks good, that would work, this *tug, tug, TUG* seems strong enough. The Pokémon to be rescued was still in place, if looking rather impatient. Wynter had secured herself to the line. Good to go. He...

    I could change the title of this thread to include the words signup?

    We haven't had a high pace of posting lately, but I'd be happy to get back in there if people are still interested. (My apologies to Kyuukestu for leaving you hanging there at the end, I was just kind of hoping there were more than two of us still around.)
