Q&A

Q.)What Can you Play as?
A.) Pokemon, Pokemon Trainers,

Q.) What is the limit on starting Power?
A.) When I say you may play as a Pokemon, I mean start small. No, you may not be a Groudon. No, You may not be a Snorlax. Play as small Pokemon to start if you are going to.

To Expand on this, trainers may start powerful to an extent, veterans of another league or what-not, However- When Traveling to Sinnoh they will leave behind all but one pokemon for the adventure, Along with this.. a Detailed Backstory must be written to suffice for the amount of power you are collected.

Q.) IRC RP? Why this again?
A.) Last time I hosted IRC RP.. (Several months ago) there was one crucial flaw: We didn't ever meet because I would set dates a day before they would happen, and sometimes they didn't fit peoples schedules. So now we will be meeting on Saturdays.

Q.) How does Combat Work?
A.) Every NPC Pokemon battle has two-three Combat phases the player must survive; each will be a challenge to over come, as a battle is not easy to win.

Our combat has come a long way, you will see it in game! the combat Phases are similar to the way World of Warcraft boss battles work; they use different move Combos each phase, doing different things to the surroundings.

Q.) Do we use Dice?
A.) Our Host/DM (Loudskies) Will be uses Dice on her side to direct the game. Scripted D20 Dice, to be specific. The dice i use can be found here. http://www.wizards.com/dnd/dice/dice.htm

It didn't go well because I didn't schedule times well. whenever we hosted it it was always awesome, I learned a lesson from that. and now I know that it is good to have a weekly time where we meet, Saturday.

[Aquashin]

allright when what can we be? only trainers?

[Jerry]

Well... I'm gonna wait for the 'more info'

[loudskies]

I was busy when I was writing it.. I will add more.

Playing a Pokemon is fine, as long as it is a limited amount of people playing them.

[loudskies]

I vanished because I didn't have alot of time on my hands anymore. and P-U just kind of slipped under the rug. I am coming back though. and I'll be available for this now that we have a scheduled time.

FYI, Feel free to post suggestions!

...whats a surname?

Basically the last name of your character.
