History JustForFun / TheTroperBoardOnMultiversalTravel

* '''9: Übertech''' Godlike AI, advanced smart matter, picotech, controllable TimeTravel.) The most well known examples are TheCulture and [[Series/DoctorWho the Time Lords]]. Most [[{{Precursors}} examples]], however, are long since extinct or have otherwise disappeared.

Travelers to any location in any covered continua should consult [[ThePokedexExtendedFanonEdition the compendium on this series of dimensions]] for more information.

* '''Psionics:''' Varies, ranging from '''3''' outside the Dragaeran Empire to '''4''' within it, with exceptionally powerful individuals (particularly the entity known as Sethra Lavode (see Dossier 1734-51) and the beings known as [[StarfishAliens the Jenoine]] and [[SufficientlyAdvancedAliens the gods]] reaching as high as '''5'''.

Welcome to the Troper Board on Multiversal Travel and thank you for choosing or being chosen to join the Classification section of our Task Force. This Board was assembled after the [[NoodleIncident Great Multiversal]] [[GreatOffscreenWar Incident]] of 09 to regulate and control interuniversal travel to prevent travellers from getting into difficulty, regulate trade in between universes and prevent certain universes from coming into contact with others.

Most universes have only one chronal entry point: that is, the local time period in which travellers arrive; some universes have several, years or even centuries apart. Statistics for the universe may highly vary between these points, so in some cases separate stat blocks are provided for different periods. Due to the inherent danger involved, travellers are required to take the utmost caution in assuring that the timeline remains unchanged. Any deliberate attempts to alter the timestream will be met with swift and severe disciplinary measures.

* '''Special Advisory to All Travelers:''' legal Release From Liability is required before entry. All visitors please be advised that retrieval teams will ''not'' be dispatched if you run into difficulty. A commission on interdiction has been convened and a Quarantine order has been issued. [[Wiki/SCPFoundation SCP team]] on loan will examine all travelers and items brought back for contamination. Agents of board and SCP are authorized to employ lethal force up to and including [[NuclearOption kiloton]] yelds to [[ItsTheOnlyWayToBeSure enforce quarantine]].

* '''Notes:''' Visidation discouraged by all but highly trained encounter teams. Nonhuman visitors strongly discouraged.

* '''Tech level: 7''' Matter Transmitters in common use, antimatter power is standard on military shipping, FLT commonplace. However, nanotech and non-wetware AI technogies are somewhat stagnated.

* '''Notes''': Most of the human population is not registered in any kind of government database, allowing travelers to integrate themselves into society relatively easily. The local giant mecha are powered by a vaguely defined but extraordinarily powerful energy source known as Spiral Power. As a possible byproduct of this energy, a memetic trigger is contained within each mecha that gives the pilot innate knowledge of the machine's functions and controls without any prior training. This factor has made the dimension a popular vacation destination, but travellers should keep in mind that use of Spiral Power has been strictly regulated by the local governments for fear of causing a YK class end-of-the-world scenario (see Dossier 374-Spiral Nemesis). Travelers are advised to adhere to these rules for their own safety as well as others. Anthropomorphs and aliens may travel freely, but be wary of light social prejudice.

** '''Human: 0-4''' Advanced combat disciplines, possibly some architectural augmentation, astral projection onto the focus of a familiar. There have also been reports of a artifical magical hub, based around a tower serving ends currently unknown.

* '''Hazard Rating: XXXX''' Widespread interspecies warfare between Humans and Keidran, with multiple reports of ethnic cleansing by both parties. Slave trade of fairly standard size for technological level is thriving amongst the two combatants, fed by the current state of warfare. Slaves are commonly bound by enchantments and there have been reports that these enchantments cause mental degredation in the victim. Travel is strongly recommended against. However, Recovery teams will be sent after those who signal difficulty, as local arms are easily overpowered by the standard equipment of Enforcement and Rescue.

** '''Known hazards''': Warlike, xenophobic and very fecund Orcs, mind-warping willful artifacts, NighInvulnerable monsters serving the Enemy, moderate memetic hazard registered, entities with assimilating powers exist but are rare. Most of the high-level hazards are associated with the faction known as the Shadow (see Dossier 1379-9); travellers are advised to avoid contact.

* '''Hazard Rating: XX-''' The resident civilization is generally stable and prosperous, but the local method for magic use contains the constant underlying threat of magical contamination(see Dossier 993-Molds, subsection B-Demons). Travellers coming into contact with these entities are advised not to engage them in combat unless your magical capabilites exceed their own.

* '''Hazard Rating: XX''' Non-magical travellers strongly discouraged from visiting when the so-called "Death Eaters" are in power.

** '''Near-Ascended/Ascended induviduals: 1-5'''

* '''Notes:''' The majority of travellers to this 'verse will find few differences to their own universe. However, if one manages to gain access to the Stargate, they can travel between many different planets in a galaxy. With access to certain power sources, one may gain access to the Pegasus galaxy, or the Ancient spaceship ''Destiny''. The Pegasus galaxy is slightly more dangerous than the Milky Way, as it has an active hostile entity that will most likely use you as food if you are found by them. However, there is not much chance of that happening, due to the efforts of the Atlantis expedition. Travel to ''Destiny'' is not recommended, as there is no real way to get back to the known 'Gate networks, outside of extraordinary and/or potentially dangerous circumstances.

* '''Hazard Rating: Varies per [=CEP=]''', though higher in regions where fanatical factions are active. Memetic Hazards are multiple, though well documented, extant mainly in the native fauna. Government is mostly [[SkeletonGovernment non-intrusive]], though veternary and law enforcement services are extant.
** '''[[VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue Kanto]], [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Johto (K+3)]], and [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite Unova intital (roughly K+15)]]: XX+''': [[TheFamilyForTheWholeFamily Organized Criminal Activity]] is extant in these [=CEPs=] but does not presently utilize Class 5 Psionics.

** '''[[VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire Hoenn (K-time)]], [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Sinnoh (K+2-4)]] and [[VideoGame/PokemonBlack2AndWhite2 Unova+2]]: XXX''': Fanatical organizations are activiely pursuing Class 5 Psionics in these regions & timepoints
** '''[[VideoGame/PokemonColosseum Orre XD]]''': Recently downgraded from XXXX- to '''XXX-''', due to the removal 5 years previous of a rogue faction possessing quasi-assimilaton technology (Reference: Dossier-P6610 "Cipher" and Dossier-P6611 "'Shadow' Pokémon".) However, partially due to the aforementioned rogue faction and its operations, the local fauna have been driven to near-extinction in the wild. Rehabilitation efforts have commenced, so interaction with wild or unknown fauna in this sector is restricted (which precludes further Threat Rating reductions). There are also rumors of said organization mounting a resurgence (which would warrant an upgrade back to XXXX-). Finally, the citizens of that region seem [[DarkerAndEdgier less amiable]] than their trans-continental counterparts in Unova.

As multiple scouting missions to each sector of this primary set of continuitites (Codenamed "Zed") indicate [[OneGameForThePriceOfTwo multiple yet extremely finite variations in the biosphere]], (with the exction of the Orre region, likely due to the massive fauna dieback,) these variations shall be considered as Sub-Continua of Zed. Also, Player-Interactions ''do'' incur [[ForWantOfANail minor-to-moderate changes]] to the timeline, though [[InSpiteOfANail most significant effects are in common]]; therefore, only significant deviations from these common changes will receive a separate full designation. (If a sub-designation is desired, the "Trainer Identification Number" may be utilized as such a designator, with suffixes as necessary.)

* '''Hazard Rating''': Varies from '''XXXX-''' to '''XXXX+''' per CEP. In addition to various assimilation entities (Reference Dossier-P5183, "Primal Dialga"), as well as the Memetic Hazards extant in the Pokemon region of universes in general, there is [[FisherKingdom an as yet undocumented power]] which transforms the few humans or amphromorphs that have tried to explore these worlds into specimens of the local fauna.

* Alpha - The particular continuty notable for the existance of a particular Pikachu and his owner, [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} Satoshi of Masara]]. This latter individual has some latent PsychicPowers, but has largely discarded them in favor of [[ToBeAMaster pursuing noterity in the world's predominant sport]]. A member of the Meowth species that can converse with humans directly is another notable being in this continuium and its subcontinua. An [[SubbingVersusDubbing alternate version]] of this continuity, wheren the owner is known as "Ash Ketchum" is [[IncrediblyLamePun Sub]]-classed as "Alpha Epsilon". Other altenate versions may exist, [[TokyoIsTheCenterOfTheUniverse but are not]] [[WeAllLiveInAmerica well documented]].\\
Current theroy that Satoshi's/Ash's interactions with very powerful beings is within the same respective continua, though this is not confirmed. Documentation of such events should identify the continuity as "Pokemon Alpha Prime"/"Pokemon Alpha Espilon Prime". There are lesser known alternate-continua involving the distinctive beings, designated [[TheElectricTaleOfPikachu Alpha Tau]] and Alpha Pi (Ash & Pikachu).

* [[Manga/PocketMonsters Gamma]] - The particular Continuity notable for the existance of a human named Izamu Akai and a Clefairy in his companionship that can converse with humans directly, much like the Meowth in the Alpha series of continuties. [[EvolutionaryLevels Species Metamorphesis]] is reversible in this universe.
* [[PokemonReburst Rho]] - The particular continuity notable for the existance of {{AmplifierArtifact}}s capable of giving humans Class 3-4 Psionic powers similar to noted Class 5 beings. Travelers to the Unova region are advised to be on the lookout for mentions of "BURST Warriors," the aforementioned human psionics unique to this dimension. Investigation into this dimension is ongoing.

* Tau - The continuity exhibited in the [[TabletopGame/{{Pokemon}} non-electronic game medium]]. [[EvolutionaryLevels Species Metamorphesis]] is reversible in this universe. Precautions to be utilized for this dimension are similar to ones required to travel [[MagicTheGathering in the realms of the Planeswlkers]], though the Threat Rating is as the Main Continuity.
** [[VideoGame/PokemonTradingCardGame Tau Prime]] - A continuity where people have the societal structures of Zed but the distinctive fauna are non-existant; instead, they utilize totem utilizing the depictions based in the Tau continuity.

* [[PokemonSpecial Sigma]] - The particular continuity notable for the existance of [[TheChosenMany approximately sixteen children (known)]] entrusted with advanced technology. One of these children has been observed exhibiting PsychicPowers of a quasi-defensive sort. It is otherwise mostly non-distinctive ([[DubNameChange aside from certain names not matching between translations]]; such discrepencies are designated as "Sigma Prime").

Other notable continutites are listed in [[Manga/{{Pokemon}} this index]]

[[folder:Pokemon]]
This entry actually covers [[AlternateContinuity multiple different continua]] whose biology consists of the Kingdom known as "[[{{Mons}} Pocket Monsters]]". This Kingdom is of the Eukarya Domain. Most of these continua occupy [[FantasyCounterpartCulture the same physical space as our own Earth]] and seem to have temporal locations in common, though that common position is as yet unknown. There is [[WMG/{{Pokemon}} speculation]], however, those continua under the [[PokemonMysteryDungeon Mystery Dungeon]] rubric, as well as certain limited others, do not occupy this common position.

** '''Mitigating Factor''': [[FantasyGunControl limited standard conventional weapons development]]. Primary continuity had -5 in antiquity (Reference Dossier-P5185, "Sinnoh Myths"); multiple continuities have exhibited -2 weapons. Combat is primarily Pokemon-based, which is addressed in Psionics below.

** '''3 for most Pokemon''' (A handful of Arts are Class 4).
** '''5 for''' those Pokemon classified as '''[[OlympusMons Legendaries]]''' (Reference: Dossier-P5100 "Extant Mythological Pokemon")

** '''[[PokemonRedAndBlue Kanto]], [[PokemonGoldAndSilver Johto (K+3)]], and [[PokemonBlackAndWhite Unova intital (roughly K+15)]]: XX+''': [[TheFamilyForTheWholeFamily Organized Criminal Activity]] is extant in these [=CEPs=] but does not presently utilize Class 5 Psionics.

** '''[[PokemonRubyAndSapphire Hoenn (K-time)]], [[PokemonDiamondAndPearl Sinnoh (K+2-4)]] and [[PokemonBlack2AndWhite2 Unova+2]]: XXX''': Fanatical organizations are activiely pursuing Class 5 Psionics in these regions & timepoints
** '''[[PokemonColosseum Orre XD]]''': Recently downgraded from XXXX- to '''XXX-''', due to the removal 5 years previous of a rogue faction possessing quasi-assimilaton technology (Reference: Dossier-P6610 "Cipher" and Dossier-P6611 "'Shadow' Pokemon".) However, partally due to the aforementioned rogue faction and its operations, the local fauna have been driven to near-extinction in the wild. Rehabilitation efforts have commenced, so interaction with wild or unknown fauna in this sector is restricted (which precludes further Threat Rating reductions). There are also rumors of said organization mounting a resurgence (which would warrant an upgrade back to XXXX-). Finally, the citizens of that region seem [[DarkerAndEdgier less amiable]] than their trans-continental counterparts in Unova.

'''Note on Tech Level & Psionics:''' The chief reason for the lack of conventional weapons is human ownership of Pokemon. Owned Pokemon seem subject to a PowerLimiter (See Dossier-P5011 "[[FanonPokedex/{{Pokeball}} Pokeball]]", and Dossier-P5482 "Red Chain"). While this does allow for a sense of order in this apparently wild world, it does make scientific verification of local folklore re: Class 5 Psionics difficult.

* '''5''': Magic attacks capable of reaching Megaton level outputs. Warping of reality itself. Spirit world of extreme power and easily capable of making its will felt upon 'mortal planes'/ Long range interstellar telepathy, telekinetic molecular manipulation, Teleportation or astral travel quite common and combat disciplines are almost always to be found here.

* '''1''': [[PsychicDreamsForEveryone Clairvoyant/precognitive dreams]], conversations with spirits, minor transmutation, basic 'glamor' (a Magical,psionic ability to obscure the nature of something from others), low level combat, minor to well developed empathic ability, low level telepathy, minor and clumsy telekinesis.

* '''3''': Effective magical attacks, long lived and high power enviroment effects, very active and moderately interventionist spirit world/Powerful and long ranged telepathic abilities including basic manipulative abilities, such as addition or subtraction of memories or minor psionic compulsion, powerful and/or highly dexterous telekinetics and uncommon cases of more exotic effects. Combat disciplines beyond predicting enemy actions begin to become practical.

* '''Tech Level: T7''', going down to T6 and up to T8. Effective tech level varies, due to ill understanding by dominant polity(See Dossier 12-Imperium Of Man, section 5-Technology [pages 93-105]).

* '''Notes''': Local sector in current state of war involving a swarm assimilation entity (see
Dossier 642-Zerg). Full conscription in effect in most areas. Little is known about the state
of Earth in this Universe (See Dossier 875-United Earth Directorate). Digressional travel is
strongly discouraged, especially by non-humans that are unable to disguise themselves as Human.
Use of a brainwashing process native to the universe is widespread in the dominant human
polity in the most well mapped region(See Dossiers 701 and 566-Neural Resocialization and Terran Dominion)and Board Psis have had little success in reversing the damage done by it.

* '''1''': [[PsychicDreamsForEveryone Clairvoyant/precognitive dreams]], conversations with spirits, minor transmutation, basic 'glamor' (a Magical ability to obscure the nature of something from others), low level combat, minor to well developed empathic ability, low level telepathy, minor and clumsy telekinesis. Psionics rarely exceed the level of MaybeMagicMaybeMundane.
* '''2''': Competent magical attacks, charms, wards and curses. Advanced glamor, moderate transmutation, moderately active spirit world/Advanced empathic abilities, well developed telepathy, moderate and/or fairly dexterous telekinesis. Psionics usually or commonly rise above the level of MaybeMagicMaybeMundane.

However, there's a man named Andrew Dobson. He tends to whine a lot and tends to be arrogant. There's a rumor that the God who created this Universe was into Inflation art at one point. He tried to disown this, but popular media won't let him live it down.

(Major deviations from median are to be measured separately.)

This rating is based off abilities demonstrated. Not all phenomena have to be present to qualify for a rating. The max number is determined by the highest level power shown in that universe or by the culture in question. Major deviations from median are to be listed separately, as with technology.
