PokéFiends is an open and expansive multi-region Pokémon roleplay that welcomes both canon and original characters. From the regions in the main games, the anime and side games, and even a bit more, you can travel anywhere. Be wary, a darkness lurks in the night, a sinister creature haunts the edges of the moonlight. Turmoil brews, traveler, so take your first step with caution. |
Four months ago, terror held the world in stand still. The attacks on both Saffron and Castelia have concluded... and despite the growing darkness, the people of the world band together to throw an event in the spirit of world unity and the courage to stand against this new foe.

The season is currently Spring. There winter snows have thawed and new growth springs up across the world. Periodically, chill remains in the air, but never for long does it hang about. |

Event Pokémon: ?!?!?! The next Event is planned for this Friday. It will be a multi-prize event, and will have more than one type of contest. None of them will be time-based or related, so if you missed out on the fun last time to my poor planning, fear not. ~~~ Orre I should also mention, just to get people brewing ideas. We are going to be taking severe liberties with the Orre region once we open it. These liberties not only include adding in wild Pokémon (we figure that six years post XD that it would have at least some more there) but also its own mini league for competitive play. When we say mini league, of course, we mean a quad of four gyms with a Head Leader, not unlike what the Orange Islands has. When Orre opens, will leave a notice up for two weeks, where in you may post an application for an original Gym Leader. This will be the only happenstance that you may have two Gym Leaders (a canon one and an original Orre one.) If we receive more than five, we will pick the five best. From there on, from a random drawn tier, these five people will battle out, deciding whom will be Head Leader in RP. It should be noted, that like Orange, they do not have to be type central. If they are not type central, they must be task/puzzle central instead, as they are in the OL. It's your pick, task or type. I'm only posting this now to get you brewing ideas. Do NOT post any applications for them yet, they will be rejected. ~~~ Guidelines Update Below is the bulk of what was added to the Guidelines, though a few other bits were added, a section on Cycling was added to that, instead of just being in the Item post, and a few tidbits under the Trainer section about questions that had come up. Forms concerning these things were also added to the Form sub-forum. The following was added to the Guidelines:

Woo! I have just one questions and a suggestion, mizu. First, do these original Orre gym leaders count as canon characters? Second, Justy, leader of the Pre-gym in Colloseum and XD could possibly be the head leader or whatever you wanna call it, since he's been there the longest. Just an idea. ^^ |

Answered that yourself. "originals" can not be "canons" So no, they will not be counting towards the canon limit.
This is why I need to play PKMN XD: GoD. Justy, on the other hand, would be counted as a canon should he be applied for. The Orre gyms are still in their infancy, if anything, should we allow Justy, we might very well flesh out the league a bit and make it bigger. When we get closer to that, we'll figure it out. Thank you for telling me about Justy. Wether he ends up being a GL or an Elite though, is completely up to whomever decides to apply for him. I'll work something out for him though, definitely, since he's a canon after all. |

Okies, mizu. Thanks. I just wanted to check on that to make sure. :P lpl *begins scribbling in notebook and cackling* And, I do assume when you say that you may flesh out the Orre league, you mean make it full fledged with 8 gyms and an elite four + champion, right? And, if you ever have any need of info on XD, you can just come to Me about it. I own the game and can breeze through it easily. :P lol And, you can expect a few things More about Orre in next PM. ;) lol I have ideas that may be helpful. Lol |

No... the Orre League is going to be just like the Orange League, as stated in the first post here. Four Gym Leaders and one Elite. |

Yes, when I mean flesh out, I mean full fledged. If it's full 8 though, it's constrained to type and not task set ups. The problem with constraining to type is the fact everyone is required to having a different type. That being the case, it would most likely be first come first serve, or we would have it so you could post multiple applications with different types, and the 12 (8 + 5 - Justy (1) = 12) best would be selected. The reason I want to avoid doing a full rooster is our lack of members. If we do it half league, it's looking like it will be best of four plus Justy for five. And then they can duke it out. |

Haha, double posting to concur with Shiay. I do think it would be best for Orre to be a half league like Orange. There fore... I'll work something out for Justy. |

Ah, okay then. Lol I do see why you make that decision. Orre doesn't have many gym-worthy locations, so a half-league does make more sense. Lol |

I missed most (seen maybe four episodes, but only one battle) of the Orange Island episodes...and I do not believe it is available in any of the games... (and also, the bookstore does not stock many Pokémon managa)...so. I'm uncertain as to what the "task" might be. An example would be great. xD **total noob when it comes to islands and Johto (as she has missed most episodes and is too lazy to go find them on youtube) |

Well, bori, the tasks can basically be a puzzle or a challenge where the leader and challenger compete with their Pokémon in a way other than battling. I've been talking to mizu about a possible Orre gym leader I might take that would have his gym in an old Cipher Research Facility, which would have been converted into a maze-like plac, where the trainer has to find their way to the leader, having to battle several "underling" trainers on the way(they'd only get to use one Pokémon.). So, basically, this gym I have in planning would be a combination task/battle gym. Sure, its merely an idea, but it was one she said she liked! So, you can basically come up with just about anything, so long as the mods approve. |

Haha, don't worry. I don;t mind explaining (and sumdood already got most of that out of the way) But yes, task simply means how sumdood put it. For example: in the Orange Islands... Cissy: she has you compete with her in a water gun target test, and then her next round is a ocean water race on the pack of one of your Pokémon. Danny: You have to climb a freaking mountain! And then after that you make your own sled and then race him back down the mountain. Rudy: He has you shoot targets aboard a moving boat, and then he battles you in a 3-on-3 same-type Pokémon battle (where he uses Pokémon of the same type as your own) Luana: She simply does a double battle. XD; Link Below that is the listing for the Orange Leaders, Bulbapedia offers synopsises of how they battle on their profiles, so that might help you some. Whatever task you pick to do is up to you, obviously. It can of course, be most anything. |

Ah, okay! That makes sense (and actually sounds quite interesting). Thanks for helping me understand it better xD |

(didn't see your post, Jakkaru x.x) I remember the water gun one...Ash's Squirtle ended up learning Hyrdo Cannon on that one... Well, now I have something to do other than twiddling my thumbs during class xD (as there's not much to do other than to pretend to listen to the teacher, and then do a bit of writing... English Composition is boring D: ) Sumdood's maze idea really has me thinking... |

1000. The boats at each port only travel to certain areas, so know which port you need to leave by and where you want to go to. (Ports will be added/updated as new regions open.) You can purchase tickets in the
