First off, Starter Pokemon shall be updated soon.
As soon as this is updated, I will be PMing all accounts asking for a list of characters to see me. With the PM, the changes shall be fully explained.
For a heads up, characters that start off with getting a Pokemon will now get one level 15 Pokemon and one level 10 Pokemon from another list. This offers two Pokemon for them to begin their journey and make things a bit easier.
Likewise, breeding rules shall be changed to allow level 10 Pokemon to breed, but with a few minor changes to ensure people level up their Pokemon to gain very special rewards.
Second, when you are in a training thread you may encounter a new type of... experience. The same goes for gathering. We will not give details as this is supposed to be a surprise for everyone, but the more you work in a thread and the like the more likely you are to get these rewards.
Oh, and if you overkill on a Pokemon--if you try to capture or not--staff will now say you actually killed it. No worries! You can carve up the Pokemon and sell what you get to the site store for cash and you can get some other rare items out of them. We do not think this goes over PG-13, as we are not going into detail. So be careful that you don't Flame Wheel that level 1 Caterpie.
Now, about the poll you see up above.
Humans need to work their tails off to even get a Pokeball to attempt a capture. Dark Ones can "corrupt" the wild Pokemon even though it takes some effort and Elves can speak to any Pokemon in their kingdom as those Pokemon are overflowing with light magic. Dark Ones and Elves, however, may still need pokeballs to make the catch 100% official. Gijinkas don't need a pokeball. They can't use them. Up above we have multiple ideas that I will explain in full below. If you have another idea, feel free to vote "other" and reply to this with your idea. Staff will seriously consider everything, so don't worry if it is dismissed. If it is, it does not mean it is a bad idea, just that it may not work with the site setting.
The options:
"Epic Adventure" - this would require the Gijinka to go on an epic adventure with the Pokemon if they want to capture it. This could be helping them find a berry, or even hiking up a mountain to talk to the mystical Alakazam to discover the real meaning of beauty. Basically, this would require work and working the imagination. The word minimum would be 500 words to get the Pokemon with a battle situation. No battle situation requires 700 words.
"Pokemon Limit" - Humans, Dark Ones, and Elves have places to put the Pokemon they catch. Gijinka do not. Most Gijinka don't have a "home" where the captured Pokemon will be safe. Their Pokemon are still wild, therefore Gijinka would only be allowed to keep as many Pokemon as they could carry. The capturing will remain easy, but if they want another Pokemon they need to release one they already have. Or, if one of their Pokemon faints then that Pokemon dies. We don't have Pokemon Centers, sooo~
"Other" - tell us your idea! We can't come up with everything! If you come up with something we can use, then we shall contact you privately and discuss how to modify it to all of our liking. Your username will then be placed in the rules where it is located giving you credit. Even if you leave us your name will stay to tell people "look at what this person did".
