Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.

Okay. I don't think your character is a sociopath anymore. However, my character still does, and the only way to change that is if something happens between Brandon and Madison in the RP that gets her to know him better.
Madison is waiting on @Zixal. Brandon and Anthony are waiting on @Yusa, sorta, cuz they asked everyone there, including Kiro. That means they’re also waiting on @limebird444. Also, Ray hasnt moved. And then Sterling hasnt moved since Lisa died.
@Red Gallade i am slowing the RP down a bit. They will just be exploring for the next few pages. It will be easy to keep up with.

@StormingCobra55 I'm still likely writing off Sterling, how should I go about it; Should I still use Nidoking?

Jax left, so Nidoking is gone. It would probably have to wait until Jax returns with the others.
I'm absolutely clueless on how to progress then; I wasn't prepared for this turn of events and cannot think of a good response at all.
I’ll post tomorrow
Just say Sterling froze up and didnt react due to fear and went into shock after Lisa died or something. Maybe he can run further down the tunnel and meet up with Collax and Madison?
I was thinking of joining this, could I get a breakdown of any major events? Or, would it seem to late in the journey for another trainer to arrive?
@Mystic Zander you could join. Here is the basic plot so far.
- We arrived on the island. Brandon went off alone, Lisa, Sterling, and Collax went together, Madison and Ray went together, Sarah went off alone, Kiri went off alone, and Kira went off alone.
- Madison and Ray had a battle with no clear winner, and Ray ended up catching a Corphish.
- Lisa, Sterling, and Collax were attacked by Combee and Brandon intervened.
- Sterling caught a Buneary and Collax found a Skorupi.
- Madison caught a Sandile that tried to steal her sunhat.
- Kiri caught a Treecko.
- Brandon eavesdropped on the villains and knocked out Jax.
- Lisa discovered a lava tunnel.
- Jax is revealed to own a Weavile.
- Brandon caught a Blitzle.
- Jax woke up and attempted to attack Sarah until Brandon distracted him.
- Brandon and Madison battled Jax.
- Jax is revealed to own a Nidoking, Jolteon, and Alakazam.
- Madison caused Nidoking to fall into the lava tunnel and Collax confused the Nidoking with Barkley’s Confuse Ray.
- In its confusion, Nidoking killed Lisa and apparently knocked out Sterling.
- A trainer named Anthony showed up and he is revealed to own an Exeggutor.
- Anthony is revealed to own a Flareon.
- Jax retreated on the back of a Hydreigon.
- Collax found Lisa’s Inkay, and Madison ran through the lava tunnel and straight into Collax.
- Sterling is left stranded in the lava tunnel (currently).
- Brandon and Anthony went off to try and make a shelter.
- Anthony revealed to Brandon that more people were coming to help in a few days.

What should I say in the rp?
Rays taking Madison because that’s her only friend that she knows the most, kiri is basically Alain (meaning he travels alone)
XD her best friend Madison actually isn't going with them, she's down in the underground cave with Collax
While Brandon and Anthony are still in the jungle, on the surface
So you ended up ditching poor Madison (in a ditch, no pun intended) but that's cool because...……………..
You called Brandon a nice, cute guy
Now he doesn't show that much emotion but maybe if you win him over...
Idk if that was @Red Gallade 's last post on the RP, but if he's planning to post again and confirm his char dead I just wanna let my guy know that it doesn't have to be like that...
He can always fade away right here and make a comeback later on, when the RP slows down and things are easier to keep track of. Whatever you missed won't be relevant to your character, so if you ever want to, jumping back in will be easy. By fade away, I mean just leave it ambiguous here as to where he is, what and how he's doing. Unless there's another reason you want out like you lost interest, I don't see why you can't just a take a break. Or if you're gone for good, take a break indefinitely (that means leaving without dealing the finishing blow to Sterling, so his status in the RP is presumed dead rather than confirmed dead)
You're insistent on writing Sterling off even though Storming has promised several times to slow it down, but are you sure this is the only way? Killing him off? That's what it looks like from your most recent post, unless he's just unconscious. But no need to confirm his death, because...

If all of you don't mind a little worldbuilding, I put an abandoned hospital on Lasryn. I was actually planning to do so from the start.
I also enjoy this point in the RP, Collax and Madison sort of but not completely warming up to each other.

It's gonna be a long process, I tell you what. Yet I still find myself accidentally shipping them.
On the topic of the abandoned hospital, I'm beginning to put together pieces of a puzzle here. Lava tubes running underneath a thick jungle can only really mean there was some volcanic disaster that probably had something to do with the current state of the medical building, the sudden desert so close to the jungle, and the fact that such a thick jungle exists in the first place. And with the presence of this "Team Void" lookin' ass, I think I know where that volcanic disaster came from.

As it should be, otherwise it's fake.
I think what you came up with just now better explains why the hospital is abandoned and ties everything together.

@Mystic Zander starters that have no evolutionary forms are not allowed because it would always be at its full strength. Please change it to something will an evolution line.
Ah yeah I read the rules a few days ago and couldn't remember if in was making that up. At its full strength? Why do you say that? Are characters not forced to limit how strong there Mon currently is?
Well, it just seems like it would be kinda unbalanced in battle. I mean, a Zangoose is much stronger than a Basic Pokémon like Squirtle, Axew, Chimchar, Inkay, or Gible. It would just make more sense to start out with the lowest evolutionary level of a Pokémon that gets stronger when it evolves.
Okay, I can understand that. I just assumed we were all specifically supposed to start with weak Pokémon. I always think of rps a bit more like the anime than the game, lemme think of a new starter choice. 
If no one's posted in 4 days because my last post makes it impossible to continue, I disagree. Madison woke up in the middle of the night, but that doesn't mean everyone else's characters have to jump to the middle of the night. Brandon and Ray were still planning on cooking something, so they could continue that timeline, and Madison's post will be assumed to have happened after that.
Then we can skip to morning, if everyone's ok with that.

Huh, oh I didn’t get notifications for this

Just read the rules. No legendaries, mythicals, Ultra Beasts, or Mega Evolutions allowed on this site without admin permission. Also, try not to force hits in battle.
