We Are All Pokemon Trainers Discussion

GOOD NEWS, EVERYONE!

The story I wrote for Serebii's Alpha and Omega contest last year, Crater Dreams, is live! As for what it's about... Well, you know how in ORAS Wallace mentions he's the descendant of the ancient Sootopolans? This goes into a bit more detail on that.

You can read it here, here, or here.

Please, read it and send me any thoughts!

Additionally, now that it's done I can go into a bit more detail about the WAAPT spinoff/prequel soon. I just gotta get my shit together and write out the plot outline for it first.

EDIT: Also, the pic I used for Crater Dreams on F Fnet is here.◊ I'd have to find the original source on Tumblr.

Yes, hello. I just came in to say sorry for one or two things.

Firstly, I'm sorry for saying that WAAPT had made my life objectively worse. Especially since that turned out to not be quite true (Pokémon Alpha Sapphire was pretty tight from what I've played so far).

Secondly, and this is towards Tagg - I know I said this before, but I'm sorry about anything bad I may have said about Infinity Keystone or The Elder Scrolls and Fallout stuff in PMD-B. I may or may not have said some nasty stuff about 'em when I was here last November, and while I did check and it seemed that I didn't, I wanted to be safe just in case.

Okay, that's all. Thank you!

OK, so now that Crater Dreams is done and I've gotten the first few chapters of the WAAPT spinoff-prequel-thing planned out in its WIP plot outline, I think it's about time I give you guys a few more details on the latter.

First off, the title of the damn thing is...

-drumroll-

Heroes After All.

Now, it'd be mean if I just gave you that, so have a few more ridiculously vauge details on what's currently planned:

• The fic is set at some point before the RP's equivalent of the events of RBY.

• The fic features a proto-J-Team of sorts.

• Said proto-J-Team features predecessors of Lucius, Vierr, Tagg, Psyche, PERFECTSIS, and some of their mons. (All with permission from their original authors, of course.)

• Two actual WAAPT characters of mine (as in, the exact same peoplemons) will have a prominent role. At least two others will have minor roles.

• At least one canon character will make an appearance, though naturally they'll be younger.

• Mega Evolution factors into the plot... Probably. There's still a few kinks to work out.

• One of the villains is a character I was gonna use for WAAPT but decided to use for this fic instead.

• There are exactly two protagonists, one human and one mon. They don't meet until midway through the plot.

• A part of this fic's plot involves... "Reconstructing" something. Said something has to do with another something that happened in the RP.

And that's all for now. You see, I'm being so ridiculously vauge because there are a couple aspects of this fic I don't want kneejerk reactions to before anyone reads it, and as usual I'm ridiculously paranoid about giving them away. There are a few people in the RP who I've told why, as well as one relatively prominent Pokefic author outside the RP (I'll happily take guesses as to that last one). And besides, I genuinely feel those aspects are best left as surprises. :P

So... Any thoughts? Or even better, WM Gs? I'd love to see people's guesses! :3

>PERFECTSIS

Okay, that caught me by surprise.

...

WMG: Predecessor!PERFECTSIS will have knockoffs of Giovanni's team, like PERFECTSIS has knockoffs of Getsis'.

Ooh @ predecessor of Vierr. I'm totally in support, although I'm curious how much of one they'd be.

Dune: That would be a fun idea, though he already has Proto!Oinkbane.

Eskay: I already asked permission for all the proto-characters, including from you, silly. :P

That said Proto!Vierr has the same basic personality. And Dark!Obscura.

Oh, right, now I remember. I'm tiiiiiired.

I just realized that I forgot to mention I'm on spring break now, so that's why I've been gone the past few days.

I think I might be away a few more days even when the break's over, though. I've not been in the most WAAPT-y mood the past few days and I've been making a lot of progress on some personal writing-y stuff.

So yeah, sorry if you wanted to do stuff with my characters now-ish, I guess. ^^;

Hopefully I won't be gone too long.

Terribly sorry for my absence last night and today, folks - the Wi Fi is down at my apartment and no one has fixed it yet. I'll be back as soon as I can!

My computer seems to be on its way to death right now, so I may be away even longer.

On a less serious note, I bought a used game with "Joseph Nix" written on it, which reminded me of Joseph Nox.

Umbra: Wait, me? ._.

Anyway, I've decided I'll be doing two fun things to celebrate Mewtwo's return to Smash - a post in-RP where Bartleby pays RP!Mewtwo a visit and a silly thing on the second forum where Mewtwo meets all the Smash newcomers. Hope you guys look forward to both.

Yeah, so I currently have zero drive to do anything WAAPT-y. I'm starting to think I may take a hiatus or something.

I might officially take one too, at least until late May, after AP exams.

gonna just drop this so you can all see which WAAPT characters will butcher which

seriously try that it's loads of fun

So I used WAAPT characters for that. Apparently it shipped Straw x Eskay and Tagg x Dune in the first round.

...In the next round, Straw ends up killing Eskay. And Crewe.

So I decided to try it too and right in the first round

... Well, I guess she really needs to learn to swim.

i think my favorite moment in that thing of all time is Kirby decapitating Mike Tyson with Hitler's sword

or when Whispy Woods began self cannibalizing and weaponized his limbs while killing five people before being assassinated by The End

Gonna post the highlights of the first time doing this here:

Oh man this is so fitting

So is this.

I kinda want to see this IRP

Alyssa is    hardcore   

So is Tagg.

This is... kinda sad actually.

Anticlimatic af

Same to you.

Whelp.

Poor Lucius gets all the sad stuff. During my second simulation he committed suicide near instantly. During my third, he asked Eskay to kill him early on. Eskay didn't do it, but still, right in the feels.

And of course Alyssa is hardcore. :P

>psyche killing eskay

Friendzoned again........................................

@Moon RE Ammy sparing Umbra: Because it actually happened? :P

Anyway highlights from my first try...

"Tagg sets an explosive off, killing Kiki, Umbra, Jason and Jacob."

"Reynard begs for Robin to kill him. He refuses, keeping Reynard alive."

"Lina dies from hypothermia."

"Morgi falls into a pit and dies."

"Amanita sets Cleo on fire with a molotov."

"Eowyn picks flowers."

"Robin accidently steps on a landmine."

"Mezzo, Amanita, and Reynard start fighting, but Amanita runs away as Mezzo kills Reynard."

"Eowyn convinces Tangent to snuggle with her."

"Amanita forces Basket to kill Arika or Psyche. She decides to kill Arika."

"Ammy strangles Waka with a rope."

"Tangent begs for Ammy to kill her. She refuses, keeping Tangent alive."

"Amanita bleeds out due to untreated injuries."

"Tangent taints Tagg's food, killing him."

"Salvador taints Ammy's food, killing her."

...And dammit, I lost the tab before I could get a winner. Maybe I'll retry later.

"Hikari decapitates Paula with a sword."

._.

"Ever and Mezzo smash their heads together as the tsunami rolls in, leaving them both to drown."

Aaaaaaaw. That's dreadfully romantic!

"Dune goes on a rampage, killing Joseph and Eskay."

Uuuuuuuuh... Woops?

Also, it looks like Morgi wins after lighting Deziree on fire with a Molotov.
