Speaking of arc ideas, I just had one. How about a Nobunaga's Ambition arc, once that game is released? Through Time Shenanigans (tm), we get warped back in Pokepan's history, and become our Identical Ancestors, vying for control of the country.

Oh! Brain good idea thing! We can use it to explore why our Pokeforms are what they are! Like, our partner Pokemon (because every general in the game has one) could be our Pokeforms, or some people's could be different, and they change them, at some point. We could even show the origins of the Armbands!

I find that idea interesting mostly because I've been playing a lot of games set in the Sengoku era recently. I also approve of fighting each other for control of the country if only because it's not like any plot we've done prior.

Sounds nice. Count me as supporting it.

It's clearly a case of backroom political albumizing.

Past Rex: Haha, let's take over Japan!

Spinda: :3

Nobunaga: What's that?

Zekrom: >:)

Past Rex: ...Hmm, this might be harder than I thought. ._.

Though I do see one thing, AU!Pent's Pokeform is Altaria. I don't think the influence of the changes of the AU extends back far enough...

I made the reason for Rex being a Spinda his pajamas he had as a kid. He'll probably have a different partner in the past. Maybe an Eevee or the Dark Magician.

[up] Pokemon only! :P

[up][up] Yeah, the changes to the AU are pretty much confined to our lifetimes.

Hey, when are we doing a potential Pokepark arc? I was watching some videos on Youtube of Pokepark 2, and it looks pretty epic. Also, are we doing the potential Pokepark and Rumble Blast arcs as one, or separately?

I know it probably won't be a for a while, seeing as we already have several other arcs scheduled for now, but I just felt like bringing it up.

[up][up]Awww. tongue

But seriously, it'll be an Eevee like the PC.

Hm... I do have a small idea why Pent's pokeform is different between OU and AU, but it's very timey-wimey.

[up][up][up] Poképark, maybe. But Rumble Blast? I don't see how that would work aside from something like a tournament arc, and I don't think anyone would be keen to do one of those again...

[up][up][up][up] Hmm...Well, what's our timeline looking like, here? I know that we have a return to PMD scheduled soon-ish, and after that in the Future Arcs section is a return to the AU. I think that can probably be pushed back, in order to make room for the Pokepark, and Nobunaga arcs, as those are based on current games, while the AU is essentially plot-related filler (as in, it is purely made up by us, rather than focusing on an actual game).

I was going to suggest giving my idea a few months after Sinnoh/Kanjoh ends, to give it time to be localized, if it's going to be. So Pokepark could probably go in there (before or after PMD, depending on what we decide).

On Wolf's Idea

I APPROVE SO HARD. -imagines Umbra and Lina in samurai armor and squees- But what do we do with our mons that aren't our partner mons?

[up] I want to see what the game does. Pokemon will probably end up being units of some sort, so they can still be around in the armies.

Hmm... Maybe we could try Something Completely Different for the Rumble Blast arc? Like making it some sort of story within a story told by some of our Pokémon to some of the younger Pokémon, or something?

Yeah, I know, random idea.

Okay, so! Timeline, and decision making time! :D

When do we roughly want to be done in Sinnoh/Kanjoh? No hard limits right now, mind you, just a general idea of how long the people running those arcs want them to take.

What do we want to do right after it? PMD, or Pokepark?

PROS for PMD: It's been planned for a while, DS has her story that she's working on, and can incorporate it into the plot.// CONS: No new PMD game at the moment.

PROS for Pokepark: New game out.// CONS: No real plan for it.

How do we want to do Rumble Blast? As an arc? As a side-story type thing? Luke, you've played Rumble Blast. How does it actually work? When do we want to do it? During one of the two previous arcs mentioned? Between them? After them?

While I'm not sure I quite agree with the Return to AU being "Plot related filler" (Since it implies that anything that isn't based on one of the Pokémon games is filler compared to stuff that is), how about we run the Poképark arc and Return to AU concurrently?

As I understand it, some people would rather not do any more AU related stuff, so they can do the Poképark stuff while the ones that do want to do the AU can.

Wait, I thought we were doing the AU stuff during the Johto/Kanto arc? Or are we doing it after that, or...? I'm confused.

Luke924 Since: Nov, 2010

The AU stuff doesn't have a firm date. It's just something that we have plans for. However, the PMD arc will have some heavy foreshadowing of it, so it'll most likely take place some time after that.

There was a PEFE arc to run concurrently to Return to the AU.

Pokepark+Rumble blast might work sometime after the Return to the AU.

Return to AU: The Draconic Uprising

The AU cast tries to take down a clan of Dragons wanting to turn all humans into Pokemon. Run concurrently with PEFE Exploration.

PEFE Exploration

The J-Team explores the massive PEFE HQ. Run concurrently with Return to AU.

That's what I heard. Or rather, what the recap page says.
