We Are All Pokemon Trainers Discussion

Oh, I thought that if we were doing the space army thing the other Pokemon wouldn't be Deoxys.

@Zeal

In the Movie there were two Deoxys. One was dormant and had a green core. The other had a purple core and was looking for the first. The Deoxys with the purple core made clones/copies of itself to safely remove people and Pokemon from being in the way of its search. Said clones showed various degrees of resilience - my guess is that the resilience ran on Plot.

Who says they have to be just as weak as in the movie? :P

I think the previous idea was a good idea. If I may say so myself, why don't we put a pokemon the Movie clone spin to it? the clones shouldn't be too powerful of course, but it would provide the answer to the army problem. then have four deoxys as generals, have them combine as the final boss. However that is up to you guys. If it is possible, all I ask is to be a part in this event. I know I haven't exactly been with the rp very long, but this is something I would enjoy participating in. That cool with everybody? I of course will understand if it doesn't work out.

You can very well take part.

OK, so from what I've heard there are two ideal start dates for the Delta Episode: Right before the E4 challenges or right after.

Can I get a vote as to which?

EDIT: Also, Silent Post.

My guess is shortly before works best.

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

Hmm... Either before or after works for me, so I'll only vote it there is a need for a tie breaker.

Starting some of the intro stuff shortly before/during E4 makes some sense to me. I don't have a preference though.

That said, I know nothing about Delta Episode. So at this point I'm guessing I'll mostly be observing, but let me know if there's anything someone wants me to help out with.

Before might be best, due to the fact that not everyone wants to battle the elite four as it is. But for me either way is fine.

Decisions were made regrets were had.

Hmmm... Seems like we'll go before unless there's any objections.

I'm fine with before.

As am I.

So... I have a dilemma.

I initially wanted to use the two weeks I had before my summer class starts to get Truth written and posted since I'd much rather get that done before my WAAPT retirement because the less I have between the end of my time in WAAPT and the start of Heroes After All the better, plus it would be rather difficult to cram both Truth and what I want to get done of HAA into the fall season.

However, I realized today that summer's coming and everybody's getting out of school and that means the RP's pace will increase to unreasonable ludicrous speeds and that means the end of the arc might come sooner than I expected and oh dear Arceus in heaven I need to get my ass in gear

So I am really, REALLY torn and clueless what to do and really need some advice people otherwise I might go insane.

Contact Me!

Are you sure it'll increase that much? Only it's really slow right now.

Relax. From what I've seen, people generally seem to like the pace the arc's going now, so I doubt it'll pick up much, if at all. Even after the Delta Episode, people are still probably gonna be spending a while in Hoenn because of things like the Battle Frontier (I figure WAAPT's Battle Frontier is pretty much Emerald's Frontier built on the grounds of ORAS's Battle Resort, although people are free to give other ideas). And even then, does it necessarily have to be a hard "okay no more anything I'm wrapping up now"?

Probably the worst thing you can do is be indecisive not doing something. Even if you have to chain yourself to your keyboard, it might be a good idea to slap yourself whenever you find that you're just asking "A or B?" and not doing either.

Now, if that's not the problem, then I'd say that doing something along the lines of putting an hour or so of fic-writing time, where that's all that you concern yourself with, might be a good idea. Very little happens within an hour, unless it's something big (and all in one post), and even that can be reasonably responded to afterwards.

OK, thanks guys.

I think I'm gonna take the approach these next couple of weeks of focusing on Truth during the earlier hours of the day when not much is going on in-RP and focusing on important RP stuff in the later hours. Hopefully that'll help.

So, I just came to a realization a few minutes ago. During Re:Glitch, we'll be in Sinnoh again, conveniently ending up there four years after the Gold Conference arc. Now, I know that the frequency of the GC has never been made canon, but at least two headcanons — Silent's and my own — put it at occurring every four years. So, while we're in Sinnoh this time around, would anyone object to the 2015 Gold Conference going on in the background, even though the J-Team wasn't invited to participate this year? It might help to lessen the sense of plot-centered selective object permanence that follows the J-Team around sometimes.

Plus, it gives a great excuse to have fans frenzying around Jubilife.

Also gives the possibility of Nu!Glitch attacking the grand final match in an attempt to steal away what it believes to be a Arceus-given prize.

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Ooh, that's an idea. I hadn't really thought of anything as a finale for the arc, so that can work. :P

Hm... I could say I'm fine with this, but something about it seems weird to me.

Like, I'm totally fine with the J-Team not getting invited this year and I'd be surprised if people want tournaments outside of smaller ones, but, if this RP would survive to 2019 or later, I guess I'd feel weird if the 2011 Gold Conference was the only one the J-Team ever got invited to without some clearer reason. (And I know no one said that, just bringing it up for future?)

(Also, I'm not saying we need to participate in the GC in however-many years, if people would rather not, just as long as someone gets invited.)

Also, jeeze, awkward timing. Who picks an event that lands on such lovely numbers as 2011 and 2019. Or 2023. Eurgh.
