  1. Well that would just take away the fun, more for us than for you.
  2. Could you try to replicate the issue and post screenshots? It would make solving the issue a lot easier.
  3. They would probably be very incomplete I might assume, especially the custom shiny sprites that I doubt have animations. Gen 6 would probably lack animations as well. But, if you're ok with that, then you're better of sending Ame a message than creating a thread.
  4. Exactly, there's an incredibly amount of overhype for it that I just can't understand. Far too complicated for my own brain to comprehend though, so maybe if I could figure out what was happening it would seem good to me. I do love when an anime takes culture, history, or mythology of some sort from another place other than America to use for the story. Like for example in Durarara!, a rather impactful character is a Dullahan. A dullahan is a "fairy" of sort from Irish culture that is said to ride a black horse and carrying its severed head with it. To see that Japanese and American culture is not the only relevant thing in an anime is very makes me happy as it brings light to interesting parts of other cultures. On a similarly related note, in Attack on Titan, if you actually dive into the character heritage and history, a conclusion can be drawn about the area in which the story takes place and the nationality of the characters. If I remember correctly, the story takes place in a merge between what is now French and Germany. Most of the citizens are German, and accepted those from around the world fleeing from the Titan threat while building the walls. This is why Mikasa is considered one of the few Asians left inside the walls. Levi I believe is French, Jaegers are German, Armin's English...? You get my point, differing cultures is a big part of an anime to me.
  5. "Thank you very much, sir." Ryan turned to Kage. "I'll go find Raiza and bring her back, don't worry. And don't get killed by a Donphan or I'll... I guess kill you wouldn't work at that point. But you get it." Ryan turned away and began weaving his way through the mess in search of Raiza. After almost getting trampled about three times, two times by a Donphan and once by an incredibly large group of Phanpys, Ryan located Raiza and Lana huddled against a cabin. He pushed himself against the wall, and slid against it to get Raiza and Lana. When he was close enough, he tapped Raiza on the shoulder. "Hey, Kage said he wanted you. He's over there with Tyron and Alastair. Apparently he needs you to help tell them something." Ryan pointed towards the small group, giving a light pull to signal that they had to leave now. Victoria motioned for them to follow by swinging her arms in a backwards circle towards Kage, Tyron, and Alastair.
  6. Ryan's gazed went from place to place throughout the gradually settling mayhem. He located Tyron and Alistair trying to prevent any Donphan from getting closer with an Aggron and Snorlax. "They're over here, come on." Ryan tried to pick up the pace as best as he could, guiding Kage over to the two adults. "Makes me wonder why this whole thing happened? What are they so spooked over, anyway?" Ryan's face was strained out of concern and curiosity. This definitely doesn't seem normal. I can't complain, since I got a new friend, but, there has to be something wrong for this large a group to suddenly charge at the camp of all places.
  7. I'll let Kage introduce them both to the outside, since he needs to find the teachers anyway.
  8. Ryan looked regretfully upon the mess that battle had made. Even his own bed was toppled over, and he could swear there was a spring poking out of the mattress. "I guess you're right... I guess we better go then." Ryan limped out the door, after Kage, trying his best to keep up. Victoria looked back at the room as they were leaving, and felt a sense of pride with what she felt was an accomplishment, a memento to a great battle.
  9. Idk I thought only phanpys would fit inside so I did that. When I get home it will be fixed.
  10. Welp, now that I've spent up most of my mind's energy typing, I think a small break is in order.
  11. Ryan threw himself onto the bed, exhausted after his limping struggle to get back to his room. Victoria was finished toying with Kage and jumped back onto Ryan's lap, craning her neck to steal a pokeblock out of Ryan's pocket. She chewed on it, savoring the flavor. She then ran over to the door with a stern little face, prepared to guard the entrance with her life. "Ok, so start from the beginning. Who is this frie..." A rumbling began to start at the bottom of the cabin. "Oh boy, what now?" Ryan got up, and peered out the window. "Oh sweet Arceus..." It was a sight to behold. Donphan and Phanpys as far as the eye could see running at mach speed towards the camp. With each second, the rumbling grew louder, to the point where their movements were like an earthquake. "It's almost like the time Groudon was awoke, eh Kage?" The beds were starting to shake, the earthquake intensifying in strength. A crash rang through the cabin and students started filling the hallways, climbing over each other to run through the halls. A feisty little Phanpy swerved off of the path and smashed right into Victoria. The small dragon stood up, giving an angry look to the slightly larger Phanpy. She began stomping her feet to emphasize her frustration with the current situation. She's asking for it! If she wants to fight, she'll regret it! The scene was almost like a comedy movie. Ryan was almost in tears. "This... is actually... the most hilarious... thing I've seen... in a while!" Ryan slipped out his words in between fits laughter. His gaze then focused to the Phanpy standing in front of the rage-filled Victoria. He slowly made his way over to the two pokemon in the middle of a one-way-altercation. "Is this a battle you want, Victoria?" The small dragon stamped her feet once again, her scales glistening in the cabin lighting. "Well, I guess we better get to it." Ryan had barely backed off when Victoria had began to spew blue, Dragon Rage flames towards the Phanpy. The Phanpy squealed and curled up in a ball. It's skin seemed to grow tougher. Before the flames could strike her, the Phanpy began to rapidly roll around the area, slamming into Victoria. The small dragon was knocked onto her back. But, learning from her previous battle, she got back onto her feet with a flying leap from Dragon Dance. Victoria let out a fierce roar to intimidate the Phanpy. However, this Phanpy must have had some experience in battles, because she knew the effects that the move had. She squealed even louder and the cabin room began shaking violently. The unoccupied bunks fell on their sides. Ryan realized that one of the bunks was beginning to get dangerously close to Victoria. Ryan screamed at the tiny dragon. "Get out of the way, Victoria!" The little dragon looked at Ryan and then saw the bunk falling towards her. She jumped out of the way, the bunk narrowly missing her head. But her leap through her straight into the Phanpy. Victoria screamed and released another Dragon Rage upon the Phanpy. The Phanpy was far too close to be able to dodge this time, and squealed as the blue flames engulfed her. Out of the fire shot two small icicles with incredibly sharp points. Their speed was rivaled by that a of a bullet. The shards smashed against Victoria's chest. She screamed in pain as two small cuts appeared on her. The shock had launched her back, but she realized that she needed to get close to do anything. She threw herself into a rapid spinning motion, propelling herself towards the Phanpy. She kicked the Phanpy, and then slipped. But she had prepared a Fire Fang, and her teeth bit into the Phanpy's ear. The phanpy squealed with the amount of hits she had taken. She threw herself over Victoria again, her rolling going in reverse to strike Victoria. This happened repeatedly until Victoria was near fainting. But the successive attacks had made her stronger. She planted her feet into the ground, launching herself at the Phanpy. Phanpy was keen as to what was about to happen. She curled up and rolled away from the area, leaving Victoria to crash into the ground. Rage was driving Victoria insane. The Phanpy made the ground shake again, slowing Victoria while she steadied herself. She shot another Ice Shard at Victoria. But her unsteadiness had caused her to accidentally dodge the incoming attack. When the quake stopped she locked gaze with the Phanpy. She threw herself at the Phanpy, landing a swift kick to its side. The Phanpy was pushed back a great distance. She stood, trying to catch her breath. It was now that Ryan saw his opportunity. The poor pokemon would be too injured to just go back with its herd at this point. It would get left behind and Ryan wasn't going to have that be the situation. In one swift motion, he pulled a pokeball from his belt. The ball expanded in his hand, and he lunged forward, tossing the ball towards the Phanpy. Upon impact, the Phanpy was absorbed in a bright flash of white. The ball began to shake. One. Two. Three. Click. Ryan screamed with joy and ran over to the pokeball, picking it up with pride. He turned to Victoria, fishing a Super Potion out of his bag. He sprayed the small dragon, to her own discontent. "The stinging is only temporary. You'll feel better very soon." He dropped an Oran Berry in the waiting dragon's mouth. "Well Kage, you wanna start this over in the safety of the cabin ord would you rather us go outside?"
  12. Interrupting Donphans are interrupting. Phanpy is gonna be the higher leveled one of it and Victoria. Guess Ryan's gonna have to hear about Celebi a little later. Oh, and, this battle's gonna make a mess. c:
  13. No need to be embarrassed, just keep it in mind next time.
  14. Well, instead of waiting until now to say that, you could have said it then, that way Chim's event would have gone through.
  15. TIL that a specific group of popes in history were known as the "Porno Popes."
  16. Not quite sure why the host would have to message you when your character is asleep. If that is so, he can simply say that said event caused Kenny to wake up. His word is law here, and if you choose not to take part in the events, then it's almost as if you're not taking part in this RP.
  17. Sorry about both my and Carissa's distance so far. When she starts to interact with people and become a little more relevant, things will get going.
  18. A trial? In a dream? Sounds interesting Jackson stepped forward. "I accept your offer, and am ready to go!"
  19. My brain hurts

      That's called a hangover, friend. Welcome to adulthood.

  20. -What do you think of Chapter 2? Did you enjoy it? It was a really fun chapter. I enjoyed being able to catch a new pokemon (or two by the time it's finished). The celebi twist was a really nice touch and I'm excited to learn more about it. -What about my writing? Where can I improve? I think it's perfectly fine, aside from a few grammar errors, but then again we all have them. -Which characters under my control feel real / which characters need improvement? I'm starting to like Evan a bit more but Lana is what I like the most. I would say Kristen needs to be a bit more than your average bitch. -Who is your favorite NPC and why? Brand. Cause he's brand. I want Ryan to meet him >:[ -Who is your least favorite NPC and why? It was Alvin, but Kristen is now just a straight up bitch and I don't like it. -What do you think about the darker parts I included in this chapter? (Hydreigon and Celebi) I love when things get dark in this. It's what makes it different from just a high school environment of pokemon. They both were done excellently and I thoroughly enjoyed both of them. -Which Legendary do you think will befriend your character? And why? Still not exactly sure if Kage and Ryan meet Celebi together or something or if it's just for Kage. While I doubt it will happen, I hope for Jirachi, but logically, I think Victini. Just Victini's attitude fits Ryan in my opinion, but Jirachi is also rather naive, like him. -What do you expect to happen in Chapter 3: Winter Cup? Jacob beats everybody and Victoria gets angry. -If your character was approached instead of Slade; how would he / she react? DENIED BITCH! -Is there anything else I can improve upon? Nothing I can think of really. Great job, Chim!
  21. Jackson's face remained straight. He wasn't intimidated, but was upset that he felt powerless and ignorant in the current situation. "What did you want me to be here for? What do you wish to speak to me for?"
  22. Jackson had confidence that if he was in danger, he could fend for himself. He obeyed the commands of the voice, releasing his grip on the door.
