Terrin looked at the monk, who would likely have been better off throwing the tome at him than casting, given he was in more or less perfect condition now, and smirked as he began to open his own tome to launch another spell - That is, untill he noticed the rather ominous wall of soldiers approaching from the west. And the fact most of his allies appeared to be doing the smart thing and heading in the opposite direction.
"Weeeellll, I could keep giving that monk what for... Or I could go say hi to my friend Klaren!" Terrin assured himself he wasn't running away, and just being a good friend, as he too headed eastwards.
"How you holding up?" He asked Klaren once he was near, although Terrin seemed worse for ware himself, panting a fair bit as his not-retreat had been perhaps a tad too swift.
Move to I19
-
Terrin shook his head, frustrated. He had hoped just walking past the monk and not wasting any of his tome's power on it would faze them, but it had no such effect. In fact, the monk hiding merely a few trees away from him had entirely ignored him to this point. In his attempt to freak out his opponent, all the mage had accomplished was fazing himself.
"Damned Monk, fine. Didn't your parents ever tell you to stay away from big trees in a thunderstorm?" Terrin asked, trying his hardest to sound dramatic as he jumped behind another tree, did a bit of a haphazard roll, and then posed heroically as he flung open his tome to attack- Perhaps he had been spending too much time speaking to Hoshiko.
Move to D19, attack Monk 1.
-
"Hey Klaren, what are you yelling at Ecquis for?" Terrin asked curiously as he ducked under cover of the trees, beside the monk. As tern glanced over his shoulder, he noticed another monk, but not one of their own. He reached to his tome, but then shrugged. "It's a monk, I'll barely be able to scratch him and just waste a use of my tome..." He decided, before whispering in the enemy monk's direction. "Great job hiding among the trees, nobody can see you, keep it up."
Move to D18 and hold.
-
Wait are we waiting on me again? Yeesh I keep thinking I've posted and we're waiting on others, sorry I've been holding us up, I'll post later and try to keep on top of this in future.
-
Ah whoops yes totally forgot about the upgrade thunder is indeed what I want.
-
Oh hey I noticed that Terrin didn't seem to get his passive healing from Center at the beginning of the turn.
-
Terrin looked at Ecquis and nodded, handing him the door key. "Hopefully whatever is in there is worth it. I'll try and take out that soldier." He decided, before running over and opening his tome, staring the guy down. "Y'know, awful rude of you to not let Klaren hit you. He worked really hard on that spell!" Terrin joked, before calling down his own magic.
Move to A19 and attack Soldier 7

So I may have ever so slightly forgotten this topic existed but I remembered now and the OP has been updated with everyone that posted.
-
I haven't been on Discord lately so I imagine plenty of people have already said it, but if not:
Calling it, mouldy bread thief is Cherry.
-
"For the love of..." Terrin just shook his head, turned his back on the monk and walked away. It was all he could do at this point. Just walk away. It was by complete chance he ended up in perfect position to strike the wounded knight. "Totally as planned." He lied to himself, before spinning on his heel and opening his tome rather dramatically, in some attempt to compensate for his less than stellar previous attack.
Move to E19 and attack Knight 1.

Just now, Sapphire said:
Nicely described. ty. =)
I tend to replace a lot of Reborns soundtrack with other music (i.e. I replace the Gym theme with the Kanto gym theme). I'm assuming that the music thing will still work (can't think of a reason why it wouldn't)?
Provided you've given them the same name as the old tracks when you replaced them it should all work perfectly fine with the music option.

Hey there all. This is just gonna be a topic where everyone can post their usernames in the game so people have a reference if they want to challenge their friends to trades and battles and whatnot and to make everything easier on everyone. You don't have to of course but hey, why not? Just make a post here and I'll add you to the list.
Oh, and I just wanted to take a moment to mention: If there is anyone causing problems online (i.e. using mons that appear as though they shouldn't have gotten past the illegal mon or offensive name checks in random battles or wondertrades, or anything else you believe may be an issue) please send a pm directly to myself or Amethyst here on the forums and we'll try to deal with whatever problem there may be.

So with Wondertrade being a thing that exists, there will no doubt be a number of interesting mons that you will end up seeing. This is the topic where I encourage everyone to take screenshots and show off to everyone some of the more interesting or notable stuff you've received! Or vent about route 1 trash. Whichever

Depending on when you're reading this topic, it will either be something you more or less expected, or something you are very surprised by. I do hope that regardless of which of those groups you fall into, you are as excited for this as I am!
Alright so, Online Functionality is big. There is quite a lot of things going on with it. So I would very much like to ask everyone to please read this topic before using online, and definitely before asking any questions about it. If you've used similar online systems in other pokemon fangames I ask that you still read over this topic as we have a number of features that were put in from scratch and some of them may well have some things you may want to ask about. I'll try to explain everything you need to know and, hopefully, answer a number of question I believe will be commonly asked.
So, with that out of the way, lets start at the beginning:
How do you access online?
-Online is currently accessed via the pokegear, and the option is enabled right at the start of the game as soon as you get your starter and pokegear. This may be subject to change in the future, but that's how it is for now.
The initial screen
-Once you have connected you'll be presented with three options. 'Login', 'Register' & 'Options'. The first two are rather self explanatory, Register allows you to make an account with which to access the online servers, Login allows you to, y'know, login to said account and do online things. Options, however, deserves a bit more explanation.
Options
-So, this is a bit of a misnomer as, at current, it is just a single option. In here at allows you to select what battle music you would like to play during online battles, you can choose from all battle music currently in game. It will remember your selection so you will not need to set this every single time you want to battle, however it will naturally only stay on what you choose if you save afterwards, so be sure to do that!
-What options is generally for is small features, like the online battle music, that are just able to enhance your online experience. At current this is the only feature but more may come in the future, and you can feel free to make suggestions (although naturally some things will be more possible than others, I'll see what I can do with features that there seems to be a real want for.)
So, once you've logged in you are presented with two further choices: 'Trade' & 'Battle'.
Battle
-In here you are presented with three options. The first two you may recognise from my announcement of the Challenge system for online some time ago: 'Challenge' & 'Wait for Challenge', which work about as you would expect, allowing you to challenge specific other users to a battle, and there is even an option to select what field effect you would like to battle! For more information on the challenge system, I recommend you look at the relevant topic in the Development Blog. Now, however, onto the third option...
Random Matchup
-This is what you would expect. Selecting this option matches you up with a random other user to do an online battle with. You can not choose to battle in a field with this option, but it gives you the freedom to battle even if you lack a particular opponent to organise it with. Also, field effects ARE still fully functional, so if even though these battles start without the field, doesn't mean you can't change that fact by using the right moves!
So, that's that for battles, but we still have trading, the other key cornerstone of online in pokemon.
Trade
-Once again, you'll be presented with three choices. The first two, 'Request Trade' & 'Wait for Request' work more or less exactly the same as the challenge options for battles, allowing you to start a trade with a specific other user. It should be noted that you can only trade mons currently in your party, NOT from the PC like in the more recent official games. The third option, however, is probably my favourite feature of the whole of online, and definitely the one I'm most excited about...
Wonder Trade
-Yes, you read the right. One of the major things I have worked to get into our online functionality is Wonder Trade which you will no doubt have fond (or perhaps unfond and bidoofy) memories of from the official games. This allows you to choose a pokemon to trade, which is sent off and then traded with another random user that has selected to do the same thing. Who knows what you'll get? You could get a Goomy. Or a Torchic. Or someone's super high level Haxorus. Or you could get earlygame trash. Probably that last one but lets not dwell on those details.
-Amethyst and myself would also like to strongly encourage you to share the stories of interesting mons you get from wondertrade, either in this topic, or perhaps someone could make a topic dedicated to it! If you get something funny or interesting I'm sure everyone else would love to hear about it and share in your enjoyment. I'm sure there'll be lots of interesting trades, and maybe they won't all be bidoof!
Now, there is one more thing I would like to talk about here in this topic. Many of you will no doubt have heard about the illegal mon system we are implementing. It has gone through a lot of changes over the course of development, so here's the lowdown on what you need to know.
Illegal Mon System
-So, it has been decided that we will only be checking mons IN YOUR PARTY. As there is currently no way to change your team once you have logged into online, what's in your pc or the daycare isn't going to hurt anybody.
-The system is checking mainly for mons with illegal moves (either moves they are incapable of learning, or moves they learn through currently inaccessible move tutors/tms), as well as illegal mons (pokemon species' which are currently unreleased in Reborn). Now, because I expect to get asked a few times I would like to make this now as clear as possible:
If you have a Gengar or Gyarados from previous versions, or any mons that have learnt Shadowball by TM (provided that is the only way they can learn that move) or have had currently inaccessible TM moves bred on to them using now-outdate TM breeding mechanics WILL be recognised as illegal by the system. This also applies to any other mons or tms which have been axed.
-This system will tell you if it's a mon or move that is illegal. If, after all this, you still don't know what it is catching as illegal, then feel free to ask, but please please PLEASE make sure first it is not the above situation.-As an extra addition, there as also a nickname filter, similar to what is in the official games, although we have at current narrowed it down to racial slurs and overtly sexual stuff. To be clear: If you have a pokemon in your party that the nickname filter blocks you will be told which nickname and not allowed to access Online whatsoever until you change it's name or remove it from your party.
-As of the public release, there is also now a filter on your trainer name. If it is found to be offensive you will be offered to change your name and your Pokémon' OTs will also change accordingly. If you have a genuinely innocent name being blocked by the system, feel free to post a bug report or message me directly.
-Okay now last thing, what does the system do? It has been decided at this point (subject to possible change) that it will NOT be a permanent flag on your savefile. It will check every time you try to log on and, if you have an illegal mon of some kind , it will flag you for that connection session, and if you do not, you will not be flagged for that session. So you can feel free to back out, put the mon in question in the pc, and then go back online.
-As for the actual function of the system, as long as you are recognised as having an illegal mon in your party you will NOT be able to Wonder Trade or battle via Random Matchup. If you want to trade or battle with specific people using your Gengar, or whatever else, go for it, you two are choosing to trade/battle with eachother so we won't stop you. (It works slightly differently for the nickname filter, as explained above)
That, I believe, is all there is to say. Beyond that, any bugs should be posted in the relevant Online Error topic rather than here, but you can feel free to use this topic or make your own for discussion! Enjoy online and the features it brings!

"A little cover... A little magic... This is my kind of battle situation. As long as that Knight doesn't cause too many problems... Lets do this." Terrin whispered to himself as he ran to the forest. About to head for the night, he notices someone else hiding among the trees - Someone that wasn't one of their band.
"This works too." He mused with a menacing smirk as he flung open his tome once more.
Move to E18 and Attack Monk 1.

"Look at all these mages. My, it HAS been a while since I've had the luxury of being able to just waltz into a throng of foes with reckless abandon. It's usually with panicked ...abandon." Terrin smirked to himself before he pressed on forward, tome already open in his hand as he looked around menacingly at the enemy monks and mages.
Move to G17
-
"...Huh. Did I turn into Ecquis when I wasn't looking or something?"
Terrin gets un-Terrin levelups. gg rng. In fairness, he can do with missing out on magic for a level or two, skill and defences are great.
-
"Hey thanks Luka, you're really helping me a lot today!" Terrin gave the dancer a thumbs up before recklessly charging ahead through the forest. Shortly he was on the other side, twigs and leaves stuck in his hair and certain parts of his noble garb. He was... about as good with navigating forests as he was with navigating spirits towards enemies.
"...I should have gone around..." He grumbled, flicking a grub off of his tome.
Move to G12.

Terrin spotted the soldier hiding in the woods. Accuracy was not the mage's strong point, so an enemy under the cover of trees was perhaps not the optimal target. However, he was in range, he looked weakened, and the only other enemies he could reach were Pegasi, which were rather talented at shrugging off magic (not to mention attacking them would put him right out in the open.)
"Did somebody order some highly precise and accurate thunder magic?" He announced, pulling a pose as soon as he noticed he was near both Hoshiko and Klaren, smiling to himself as he began to call on the spirits.
Move to G9 and attack Soldier 3

"I... Yes, I do suppose that might be what's behind the door, yes. What a shame we won't get to find out." Terrin remarked to Klaren with a slight hint of sarcasm, before looking back at the massing reinforcements, and forward in the direction we were heading. "That looks like their commander over there... Looks like things might get pretty intense, pretty soon." He observed, admiring Klaren's optimism in a situation that could get very bad very fast with just a single wrong move.
