Happy 100th bday.


But also yeah, I've never met anyone in their single digits who wasn't a dumbass but kids are supposed to be dumbasses so it's fine.


Unless they're a genius. Even then, they still don't know shit about the world xD

What's up guys. So I noticed some things, and also had some questions that needed to be answered, just to get all of our lore straight and make sure we're all on the same page.


1. As stated in the overview, in this world, there never were any humans. Pokemon are the sole humanoid race inhabiting this planet. Some of them have animal like body parts, such as ears and tails, but for the most part, they have none of their abilities. No fire breathing, or anything of that bullshit. Think of their type as more of something that attributes to their personality, and not special powers. Like maybe a grass type might have a green thumb. Ya feel?


I went back and forth on this because I thoooought it might be cool if they had their powers, but I saw it getting very messy, and very god moddy. Super powers and zombies just don't go very well.


On the topic of wings, I'm gonna have to say, even if your faceclaim has wings, we're gonna pretend like they don't.


2. So like, people don't make any distinctions between legendary Pokemon and regular pokemon, WITH THE EXCEPTION: of Arceus. Now, you can still play an Arceus gijinka if you want, but the actual Pokemon, "Arceus" is the equivalent of "God" in this world. Meaning some people believe Arceus created the universe, and others do not.


I bet you're wondering about other actual pokemon. Because pokemon are weird as fuck, and it'd be difficult to determine which ones can and cannot practically fit in this environment, we're just gonna go with reguuuuularrrrr animals.


3. Uh. I think this is it. So if you have to make changes to your pro pros based off of this, DO IT NAO. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD READ THIS ENTIRE THING TO PREVENT CONFUSION AND WHAT NOT.





Ok, now, for personal things,


@PlaguedWithInsanity @explosiveKitten


Make sure you guys place yourselves in a position to where you can run into either the NCMT OR the Black Smoke Gang. Whichever one you choose is fine, just make sure you're not TOTALLY ISOLATED from everyone else. And I know you guys probably weren't gonna do that, but I'm just making sure. The last zombie apocalypse RP I was in, motherfuckers were MILES AWAY from each other, so I just wanna make sure everyone's nearby. Same for you @RiddleWrappedEnigma when it comes to Samuel. Make sure everyone is nearby.


Next, and this goes for everybody I feel like I need to emphasize that characters will die. Who will die? Well that depends on you guys. I'm counting on you guys to tell me which characters you think would logically die in a given situation. Death adds weight to a story! Makes it awesome. You should always consider this with your own characters first, but don't be afraid to toss out death ideas for other characters. As the group moves on, you will want to make more characters and you will have to kill off others. If you're not sure if you want them totally dead, they can also go MIA and come back later! But you can only have 3 characters active in the main group at once. Villains? Go nuts, make as many as you want.


However, I'm gonna be totally honest and discuss who I think should die to guide the narrative AND simultaneously keep things clean and lean. Right now, I see a LOT of doctors. And the ones I'm looking at that might be seeing Arceus soon are Max and Ellie.


As for children, neither of them are armed so, they are also at risk. Not to mention, the BSG is more likely than not, going to kill somebody. I'm sure you guys already understand this, I just wanna make it clear when the time comes: I don't hate your character, I just think it would be excellent writing if they died xD


All that said, I'm gonna start the first post. If there's anything, anything at all you guys don't understand or have questions about, please feel free to ask.
*opens mouth multiple times to say something during the speech but ends up not saying anything* .... *sigh*

....Okay....


It's just that.. they're gijinka... and taking away the movesets and stuff kind of takes away the gijinka part of it... Now it's kind of just.... a discount furry convention...


In the apocalypse. with zambies.


It's basically just a zombie roleplay...


with furries.

but ok would u guys like SOME abilities?


SOME?!


I rly don't want anyone getting weird.
But you get what I'm saying? It's kinda not gijinka anymore without the movesets... you can limit them all you want, but... that's just my two cents...
 
At a certain point, I agree explosiveKitten.


I guess I've just come to think as the Gijinka's being a theme for our characters... like SirBlazeALot said- personality and appearance.


At first when I read 'no abilities' it was like... 'but... Pokemon?'


But I've seen roleplays where there are super powered humans and it takes the enjoyable element out of the zombie roleplay away.


So I see what you're saying but I'm sure you see, as well as I, why SirBlazeALot did it the way they did.

When i was going for this i kinda just liked the way they looked and i feel you and was originally going to put in movesets but then I thought,


ehhhhhhhhhhh flying bros would just fly away water bros would chill underwater, psychic bros would wanna do all this weird mind stuff, dark bros have powers that are disturbingly just shit humans do for the most part, idek about fairies, there'd never be a power outage woth electric, never be cold with a fire type around, see what I mean?


The gijinka things more of a thematic thing, with their pokemon abilities showing in more of their personalities and actions.


But if majority of you guys want abilities we can do abilities
