The Pokémon "Turquoise Version" RPG OOC Thread

Many of my favorites come from the 4th Gen, and the whole snow route gave me the feeling that I was going to die at any moment.

Yea, the snow route was really cool. And the swamp thing. But those small things don't make up for the rest of the game for me. I dislike so much about it the things I loathe outweigh the things I like. The other games there was not ANYTHING that ever bothered me.

The swamp thing? Surely you can't mean the crappy Safari zone where you got stuck and trudged through the mud. That was AWFUL!
 
The Safari Zones were never all that fun.

Also, I found another reason Hoenn sucks, Professor Oak never went there. Now I'll get back to my application.
 
Willow Town is going to be surrounded by 2 forests: Willow Forest and Eerie Forest. Eerie Forest is going to be the only route to go to Apparition Mountain. The Rockslide Mountains will be bordering the top and side of Galena City as well as part of the nothern portion of Supreme City. There will be 3 ports: 1 to travel from Riptide Village to a route that leads to Supreme City, another to venture to the Safari Island from south of Weald Town, and lastly a port to travel from the Seafoam Islands to a route that eventually goes several different directions that can travel to either Supreme City, the Rockslide Mountains, or Sparkplug City.
 
The sad part is. I'm old enough to REMEMBER when these games came out, and I played them on the Original GameBoy from start to end, and being sorta pissed when I -had- to get a GameBoy Color to play Crystal.

Even though I already had a GameBoy Color. (I also had a GameBoy Pocket I used for Red/Blue, and had the Color for Gold/Silver.)

In the end, all the Pokemon stories pretty much sucked. The fun part was in Gold, Mystery Gifting with your friend's team, and beating the f*** out of them.

Also, it was fun just collecting them all, and levelling them high.
 
Exactly. There are like...10 Pokemon out of ALL the new Pokemon introduced in D/P/Pt that I cared for.

They just plain sucked. Another thing that bothered me was that I think the starter monkey and ponyta/rapidash were the only fire pokemon in the game. They seriously couldn't think of a few more?

I think we all remember when they first came out. I remember getting Red for Chirstmas along with a Gameboy Pocket. Biggest mistake the parents ever made. Pokemania for like the next 2 years

...You aren't much older than me. :huh:
 
Yet, I still remember when it was released, and people were like, "Wtf is this?" And I was like, "It's a turtle with cannons on it's shoulder, and a dragon." =/
 
Super awesome new line-up.

Starter Pokemon (choose up to six; only one of the Pokemon can be fully evolved if you choose to have one fully evolved; only Gym Leaders are exempt from this rule):

1. Raichu

2. Pikachu (“Volty”)

3. voltorb (“Twitch”)

4. magnemite (“Mac”)

5. Electabuzz (“Sarge”)

Also I got rid of all PC pokemon
 
The Pokémon "Turquoise Version" RPG Application

Name of Character (are they from the comics, show, made-up, or games??): Purple Deepe

Purple-3.png


Character's Personality: Purple is a sneak, a theif, and a compulsive liar, but he’s not without his good points. He’s entirely loyal to his family and friends, and cares for his Pokémon more than anything. He’s also driven to near obsession by his quest to find a legendary Pokémon that nobody even believes exists.

Font (be specific): Purple Bold

Class (Gym Leader, Camper, PokéManiac, etc): PokéManiac fits best.

What town is your character from (can be from any region)? Azalea Town, Johto.

What is their current location (does not have to be hometown)? Cinnabar Island, Kanto.

Starter Pokémon (choose up to six; you are allowed a maximum of one Stage II and two Stage I's at the start):

1. Bonfire, a Quilava that Purple originally received from Professor Elm. He is brave, loyal and powerful; everything a starter Pokémon should be. He doesn’t like being confined within his Pokéball, so he follows Purple around everywhere that he can.

2. Evie, a Furret that Purple caught as a Sentret on Route 29. She was easily caught after a short battle with Bonfire, and her behavior since suggests that she allowed herself to be caught as she seems to be infatuated with Bonfire.

3. Shadow, a Sneasel that followed Purple around for three weeks before being caught. He helps Purple with his more stealthy tasks. Purple still doesn’t know why Shadow was following him. Shadow doesn’t socialize much with Purple’s other Pokémon, when he does, he’s snide and aloof.

4. An egg that Purple “found” in the Day Care Center on Route 34.

TMs in your TM Case (choose up to 5):

1. TM46 – Thief

2. TM18 – Rain Dance

Why have you chosen this character?: Why not?

Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in (must be at least 3 paragraphs long and contain at least one line of dialogue):

Cinnabar Island, Kanto Region

“It was here, years ago, where the first person saw it.” The moustached man said, staring off to the east, out over the water, “Right here, on the beach. Flew in from Viridian, I think. Not sure why he did it, combing the beach like that, but when he did, weird things started to happen.”

He ran his hand over his bald head and adjusted his round sunglasses before he turned to face me. Bonfire pawed at the ground anxiously, digging into the volcanic soil, as his head darted back and forth, following a flock of Wingulls fly around. “Not now, Bon.” I whisper.

“What kinds of weird things?” I asked.

“Pokémon sightings, and not the usual ones either. Kangaskhan evolving out of Metapods. Rapidash and Tauros that register far off the charts of the PokéDex’s level analyzers. Oh, then he claims to have seen it, right in front of him. He tried catching it, but from what he said, he blacked out, and when he woke up, his bag was overflowing with PokéBalls.”

“And when did he tell you this again?”

“Right afterwards, from what he said. He came by the gym, told me this story, then beat me soundly and went on his way. I hear he’s in the Toruko Region now.” The man glanced at his watch and frowned, “Speaking of which, I have a challenger that I need to face there. There’s nothing I can tell you that I haven’t already.” He stopped for a second to scratch Bon behind his ears, and then continued to walk back towards the boat, chuckling to himself. “That’s a fine Pokémon you’ve got there if I must say. Always did like the Fire ones, ya know? Come on, we’ve got to get back.”

Crazy old bastard, but he gave me the info I needed to find what I’m looking for. In order to find the missing entry in my PokéDex, I’ve got to head to the Toruko Region.

Approved.

I thought you were going to go the evil route, though.
 
Since the towns are grass/water/fire themed, does that affect which starters each town has? I.e does Slagville have only fire starters (like maybe a choice between the four fire starters from the games)? Or does each one have it's own set of three from the four previous generations? Or can we just pick any of the basic pokemon and break the mold?

Also, I'm thinking that the Professor my character recieves his starter from will be named Professor Pine. Anyone oppose?
 
Also, trusty, can I request a custom sprite from you? I've browsed through all the pokecharms ones and I can't find one that I like for my character :csad:

No, those are just generic towns. Not necessarily starter towns. Any town can be a starter town. Heck, if you wanted, your trainer could get a Pokemon from one of the Gym Leaders or something. I was actually going to do that. Have some new trainer stop by the Offshore Gym Research Facility to pick up his new like Totodile or something. I was merely adding those towns because never is a region solely towns that have Gyms. Several are just generic towns. I chose them to be element based for kicks and if your starter is one of those elements then it could be fun starting there but you don't have to.

Also, I'm thinking that the Professor my character recieves his starter from will be named Professor Pine. Anyone oppose?

That's fine.

Get on MSN then.
 
Okay, with BL there was some confusion and I can understand that. When I said the generic towns were "element theme based" I meant by the name and their surroundings. So if you wanted to have a character be from Riptide Village (an island), Weald Town (surrounded by grass and Route 101 starts from there and leads to Willow Town, or Slagville Town (on volcanic soil since it is south of Mt. Pyre and you have to pass through Slagville Town to get to Mt. Pyre) your trainer doesn't have to have Pokemon that are either water, grass, or fire-type. Same with the people in the town. Doesn't mean they all only like or prefer water, grass, or fire-type.
 
Why not just have it be "Slagville"? "Ville" and "Town" are a redundant.
 
I can never read your posts because of the cleavage. :cmad:

Name of Character (are they from the comics, show, made-up, or games??): Jon

Character's Personality: Jon, like many of the champions before him, is a courageous yet brash young boy that's about to embark on a legendary Pokemon adventure. Similar to Red, Gold and Ash in personality, Jon is absolutely ready to become a Pokemon Master.

Font (be specific): Navy Verdana

Class (Gym Leader, Camper, PokéManiac, etc): Trainer

What town is your character from (can be from any region)?: Has moved twice. Born in Kanto, raised in Johto, and him and his mom have been residing in the Weald Town since he entered his preteens.

What is their current location (does not have to be hometown)? Weald Town

Starter Pokémon (choose up to six; you are allowed a maximum of one Stage II and two Stage I's at the start; but if you choose not to have any Stage II Pokémon you can have a maximum of three Stage I's):

1. A Cyndaquil he's about to recieve from Professor Pine, the Toruko region's prominent Pokemon Professor, from the Pokemon research facility residing there.

2. His family's pet Larvitar that his mother, a whiz at catching, caught while they were on a trip to Sevault Canyon in the Sevii Islands when Jon was just a little boy.

TMs in your TM Case (choose up to 5):

1. A TM44 he recieved from his mother that contains Rest. He's taught this move to his Larvitar as of now.

Why have you chosen this character?:

Please provide a small sample post with original content in the style that you plan to write your character in (must be at least 3 paragraphs long and contain at least one line of dialogue):


"Mom! What time is it!?"

"It's 10:30, honey. Why?"

"I was supposed to be at Pine's for 10! He wanted to see me!"

"Sorry, honey. You just looked so peaceful and serene. I didn't want to disturb you."

"But that's what mom's are supposed to do! Besides you know today's the big day!"

"The day where you go out all by yourself to travel the world unsupervised and try and catch giant monsters while having no food, shelter or supplies?"

"Yeah! That day!"

"Relax, Jon... You know all the good trainers show up fashionably late. Red. Gold. Ketchum. All of them late picking up their starters..."

Rushing down the stairs whilst finishing up getting dressed, Jon grabbed his hat, turning it backwards over his unkempt brown hair, and his red backpack, he rushed through the living room towards the front door where his mom awaited him.

"Besides... I give you a week before you come crawling back."

"Thanks for the vote of confidence, ma." Jon said as she kissed her cheek before opening the door.

"Love you. Bye!"

"Good luck. You're gonna need it."

"Thanks, mom. Come on, Larvitar! Today's the big day!"

Seconds after he beckoned him, Jon's pet Larvitar skitted into the room, to which he jumped on his shoulder.

"Okay... Down boy. Damn, you're heavy. You definately need to lay off the pokemon treats..." Jon wheezed as Larvitar jumped down. He then proceeded to activate his pokeball, and in a flash of white, he was back inside and clipped to Jon's belt as he rushed over to pine's lab post-haste...
