Why is it bad? Me and Slouch are both from New Bark Town. There's no reason you and DS can't be from the same town too.

[up][up] Going by the anime Twinleaf Town is conceivably big enough that you could've never run into each other before now.

All right. I never saw the early anime, and I figured it would be weird for two people to never meet that live in a town with like four houses.

That's merely The Law of Conservation of Detail at work.

I sort of had a plan to get my memories back during the AU arc that would involve the Adamant Orb doing something weird to keep the hyperspace nature of my backpack intact, as well as Helios' Poke Ball somehow getting inside before Dialga makes the alternate timeline. Is it feasible?

Since there are numerous people in the anime that fight their Pokemon themselves, I'm guessing it's not too out of place for me to be able to beat Flare?

As out of place as my character fighting/beating any other Pokemon, considering he spent the last two days training in harsh conditions for just that.

Keep in mind, Librarian, that if you and/or your pokemon continue to defeat Flare, you will become a Gary Stu, and Flare will become a Boring Failure Hero.

I don't think Flare wouldn't take too well to being called "Boring" or "A Failure." So she's not going to lose next time.

I will be back online later than planned tonight (guessing 10ish East Coast), so if the GC starts before then, Tangent will have to arrive late to the PEFE cameo. Silent may make up an excuse if he arrives beforehand.

Do you highlight everything looking for secret messages?

The GC's about to start, but you can be an announcer/person watching the tournament if you like.

We're about to start a tournament arc. It'll be hard to jump in for that as an original character, although you can play opponents if you wish. If you want to write something for a character who is not present at the tournament, I don't see a problem with that either.

Be warned though, that after this arc, we're doing one in an Alternate Universe where no one remembers the original timeline except a select few.

You could meet us when the non Gold conference participants are in the stands. We'd be surrounded by strangers, so it wouldn't feel out of place.

...Is the weaponized badfic noted in the WAAPT trope page, guys? Seriously, everyone who's ever thought of Tobias as a badfic-grade douche who somehow found his way into canon (friggin' Asylum!) would be laughing hillariously by now.

Would the events of Twist Mountain qualify as an Innocuously Important Episode? You know, since it does set up the plot point that eventually leads to 'M's defeat?

Okay, what's happened between getting to Sandgem and getting our Pokemon out and the GC, and how's the GC been going?

Luke924 Since: Nov, 2010
#1721: Jun 4th 2011 at 6:17:34 AM

Well, I caught a Dragonnite, and Fool, Jane and Pentigan have already had their first battles and won. Oh, and Foll ended up getting Tobias's Woobuffet, Salamence and possibly his Garchomp.

It was a very strange battle.

Right now, I'm waiting to begin my battle against Flint, and DS is getting ready to fight against Jupiter.

I think that's everything

Here's how the rounds after Round One will work: After most (not necessarily all, but that would be ideal) people have completed a round, people can start asking me for their next battle. I will provide the name and team of their opponent. The only rule is that once a player knows who their opponent is, they may not change their team, since it is meant to be a surprise in-universe until they get to the battlefield. For practicality's sake (both for the people writing the opponents, and because I'm not on during the day during the week) that isn't possible, to this is the next best option. So make sure you think you're ready to go before you ask me for your next match.

Any questions?

P.S. I've updated the bracket with Jane's, and Fool's wins. Pentigan will finish his battle when he returns, and I need to see if Daisy wants to write the rest of the battles, or just announce the outcome, since Celio's difficulty rating would be about a 4/10.

P.P.S. I think I'll start adding that difficulty rating to the announced opponents as well. It's a good benchmark for the people writing the opponents to know how strong they should be.
