"We thought we'd take the long way around... but of course, we were sucked into a conspiracy to take over the world. Just a typical week, really."—Wolf, summarizing this RP
ITT: We Are All Pokémon Trainers
, or WAAPT for short, is a
Pokémon Play-by-Post Game created by
gamerex27 on February 7, 2011 where all of the participants are
Pokémon Trainers. The plot starts off with a
Talking Heads bit about all the people randomly showing up in an airport headed to Sinnoh. Then Missingno shows up, turns Canalave City into a mountain of eggs, and Mewtwo shows up to
tell the group that they need the help of Legendary Pokemon to defeat the Anomaly. Things just continue to get more insane from there.
In an epic
Fanverse which has so far included a pair of in-universe
Mary Sues,
a group of Pokemon researchers, a former-NPC, a
Mystery Man by the name of Pentigan, ex-Pokemon Rangers, a Dark-Type Gym Leader in training, immortals, people with multiple personalities, a former coordinator, Pokémon that turn into humans, humans that turn into Pokémon, superheroes, former evil team members (or their children), more ex-champions and monotype trainers than you can shake a stick at, as well as the children of another ex-champion, basically the whole of the known Pokeverse (and some of the unknown portions), virtually every Legendary Pokemon in existence, and
alternate universes, arcs are common and epicness ensues.
Due to the RP evolving from a forum game with no real canon, the events happening in the earliest arcs are slightly subject to
Broad Strokes Canon and
Early Installment Weirdness, and may not accurately represent the current state of the RP.
