Pokemon Tournament to begin soon! (signup here)

It has come to our attention, while capturing Pokemon that invaded a nation some centuries ago, that the creatures have become restless, and one of the few ways to loosen them up, is a good ol' fashioned Pokemon Battle!

Please select three of your best trainers and their Pokemon, and send them here. You can have a maximum of 6 (as always) per trainer. May the Best Trainer Win!

Sign up and introduce your trainer here, and once I'm finished with the first battle, I'll put up a roster.

As always, Legendaries are banned (unless they're spectators). Please sign up here if you wish to have some action.

OOC: I thought people would love to try their hand at RPing a Pokemon Battle. I mean it's an RPG, and this Forum is an RPG, and so, I want to mix the two. Please?

Would have been a good idea if:
Pokemon didnt suck worse than everything ever.
Pokemon wasnt stupid
Pokemon didnt suck worse than everything ever.
Pokemon didnt suck worse than everything ever.
Pokemon didnt suck worse than everything ever.
Pokemon didnt suck worse than everything ever.
Pokemon didnt suck worse than everything ever.
Pokemon didnt suck worse than everything ever.
Pokemon didnt suck worse than everything ever.
Pokemon didnt suck worse than everything ever.
But, as it did, and does, IT IS A PERVERSION AND ANY ATTEMPT TO RP IT IS A CORRUPTED PERVERSION THAT MUST BE CLEANSED FROM THE WORLD. (Prepares his banshee missles and bombs.)

Edit:

And, (insert sounds of throwing up here),
POKEMON IS NOT AN RPG. RPGs have some qualities such as: Not sucking, involving roleplaying, not sucking, being fun, not sucking, and well, not sucking.

The sky darkens as giant clouds roll in...lightning flashes. The Electric types growl at the stupidity of certain nations. Beware, for their Thunder is nothing to joke about. They may *look* silly, but their power is impressive. A sudden lightning bolt slashes down upon the enemy, shocking many.

Imatora: Recommend you have level 50-70 Pokemon. Items, doesn't matter.

OOC: Derieties, what makes Pokemon suck (besides the TV show, though I do enjoy the first season song)? Don't say it sucks without AN EXPLANATION!!! and, yes it is an RPG (potions, leveling up, experience, and good ol' magic/moves among other things). I wish people would just accept this challenge instead of insulting me for trying to RP a fantasy world FOR ONCE!!!!! God, people who insult a game that has once swept the world...it's amazing the things people pick on just because it's popular.

We also offer a grand prize of $10,000 to the winner, and the title of Grand Champion (or Pokemon Master, if you choose) of this Tournament.

We don't have any pokemon; however, several dragons have expressed interest in participating... with ASPWE packs, runed superheavy powered armour, and paradyne shock rifles.

Can we use dark pokemon (i.e. Pokemon master fic), or do we hafta use game Pokemon. Of note should be that I am a college student, and although I hate the show, I like the game, good stress relief, and it is milidly entertaining. Also, some of the fanfics (more specifically, Pokemon Master) are damn good. Pokemon meets fist of the north star, hell ya!

*Loves one called Digimon and Pokemon: Mon Wars. An excellent crossover!*

Anyway, no killing is allowed in this tourney. And, yes dark Pokemon are allowed. Team Rocket and other criminal organizations are definitiely disqualified.

*As a note, I prefer the games as well, athough they're more restricted than the TV shows.*
02-02-2004, 18:07
Can we modify them like put on jet packs and rocket launchers that would be fun

Well, not intentionally; dragons are rather big, can occasionally get carried away, and pokemon squish nicely when the ASPEW's ambient field negates their powers, so 'accidents' are possible. Not sure if the PSRs kill or not; once you're had the context of your existance subjectivly ripped away, it's kinda hard to tell what happens to you, seeing as you're perminantly cut off from the rest of the multiverse.
CoreWorlds
02-02-2004, 20:39
OOC: Aww, come on! Whatever happened to the dragons with regular firebreath and poison tipped tails? ASPEWS' a super-strong Disable, I take it. If PSRs rip away context of one's existence or whatever, that's basically killing, so unless you wish to be disqualified...don't use them. Use them for war.

IC:
Fire Men, now you have to make up a trainer to go with the Pokemon. Name, age, attributes, the works.

02-02-2004, 20:48
OOC:

The show was awful. The first game was good however. But now it is suffering a syndrome similar to The Sims. Too many games that add next to nothing.

ASPEW? What exactly is that?

Bump!

PS: If you ever enjoy the Pokemon games, sign up you and your Pokemon here! Those who wish to insult me for doing this tourney, or who just hate Pokemon, STAY OUT! Take your insults somewhere else! I may allow other kinds of creatures on a case-by-case basis, but the majority of contestants will be Pokemon Trainers.
03-02-2004, 00:59

What's sad is that three years ago, there'd be hundreds of nations signed up in a RP like this.

"Hey! Signups are starting to roll in!" Some diplomat said.
"Yeah! It's very refreshing from all that hate mail!" His friend said. "I thought we'd never get people in."

ASPEW stands for Anti-Super Power Electronic Warfare; 'modern' incatrnations of the concept are far more advanced, but basicly, it negates all supernatural abilities.

As for firebreath, some subspecies have that; usually protine-based, with incindinary properties similar to thermite, so quite lethal.

Heck, my dragons could kill some pokemon by accidently stepping on them during the match.

And PSR's don't directly kill, but yeah, the possible results of being hit by one aren't very survivible, as they were designed as a way to make supernatural, generally immortal entities or demi-gods perminantly 'go elsewhere'. Very big, very very expensive, and generally only used by the dragons amoung the God Emperor's personal gaurd.

Truth be told, I only wanted to beat up on some pokemon, but I'd be willing to give this a non-lethal, by the rules go if I can free up some more time for NS in my scedule.

I used to follow this. I'd enter scyther, magmar, hitmonchan, electrabuzz, golduck and Mewtwo
CoreWorlds
05-02-2004, 17:44
Sorry, Mewtwo's a spectator in the crowd. Can't use him. A Kadabra or other psychic type is the replacement choice.

That's fine.

Meanwhile, the tournament will open within the next few days, so be ready to battle anytime a trainer asks you to. A Pokemon Center has opened up to recieve fainted Pokemon and other creatures. Better than using Potions all the time.
