PokéFiends

Welcome

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.

News

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.

Believe in you, who believes in yourself.

September 22nd Announcements. They came pretty fast, and there's some important stuff in the previous post that I don't want people to miss.

With the the addition of the Shadow Pokémon system a few days ago, and Shiay's efforts to start Orre's sub-forums, and mine to finish it, and a huge chunk of help from Sumdood to get all the information straight as to what happened in XD (since neither Admin has played it. D8) I'm pleased to announce the opening of yet another Region. Orre has fabricated Routes, based on the map below.

As mentioned in my previous Announcement, some places have been removed given the time gap between Colosseum and Gale of Darkness. They are listed, in full, below.

Removed From Orre:
Cipher Key Lair: Cipher operations have centralized at Citadark Isle.
Phenac Colosseum: Defunct. It was replaced by Realgam Colosseum in Gale of Darkness, and now only stands as somewhat of a sight to see in Phenac.
Pyrite Colosseum: Made obsolete in place of the Pyrite Gym. The Gym will be the same building, though any alterations may have taken place, as per it's Gym Leader's visions.
Shadow Pokémon Laboratory: Same as the Cipher Key Lair, it has been decided they would abandon this Lab. It is now defunct, and can be see on the outskirts of Route O4.
Snagem Hideout: Team Snagem is defunct, and Snagging technology has been lost to both them and to Cipher. Any member of Team Snagem that did not reform... might... have joined Cipher.
The Under: After the events in Colosseum, The Under became defunct. It was closed off and filled in in Gale of Darkness, and anyone from the Under moved above ground to Pyrite Town. By extension, the Under Colosseum and the Deep Colosseum have closed.

Changes And Additions To Orre:
Gyms: Gyms have been added to Gateon Port, Agate Village and Pyrite Town. In addition, the Pre-Gym in Phenac City has been upgraded and named Phenac Gym due to the opening of the Orre League.
League: The League of Orre involves four Gyms and one Head Leader, much like Orange. The Head Leader is stationed at Realgam Tower, where he will battle challengers that have collected the four Badges of Orre in the Realgam Colosseum.
Phenac Oasis: A "Safari Zone" styled park in Orre. Pokémon are transported into Orre from other Regions to this park, and many come from across all of Orre to try their chance at catching them.
Realgam City: A city has blossomed around Realgam, due to the opening of the Orre League, and it has become the largest city in Orre.
Realgam Department Store: The Orre Regions own Department Store, it offers any items that a different Region's might.
Robo-Adventure Park: A theme park, stationed on one of the levels of Realgam's Tower, with some of the rides even vaulting outside it's walls. Some of the rides within are built by Orre's very own Dr. Kaminko. (If one were to compare it to anything, it would seem like Gold Saucer from Final Fantasy VII.)

All of this will be added to the post I'm working on for the Trainer's Guide; a detailed list of all the changes made to the world here on PF.

This brings me to the last thing I'm going to Announce. We are now accepting Original Gym Leaders for Orre. Please post them in the Temporary Orre Gym Leaders section. We will go through them, and the four best will be selected for a tourney between the participants. Depending on wins, someone will be decided to be Head Leader. The Head Leader can decide if they want to be in Realgam, or if they want me to make Realgam a standard Gym.

That being said, the towns up to pick for Gyms are Agate, Pyrite, Gateon and Realgam.

Someone also needs to play Justy, the Canon owner of the Gym in Phenac. He too may battle for a chance at being Head Leader, and we allow liberties to be taken with him in giving him extra Pokémon to use.

And I should mentioned, as I forgot last time. Pick a name for the Badge your Leader gives out that reflects their nature or type. Also of note, Gym Leaders get help pick their town motto, and help us contribute to them, under the approval of the mods. Once Leaders are selected and have battled, we'll pick which mottoes we think are best. (It won't be so much approval as it might be elaborating or shorting or similar. )

Again: here is the profile write up from my last post on Orre, with the added section for Badge name and Motto.

Gym Leader profiles are due three days after the forum reopens for Halloween. You have between then and around the beginning of October. I feel that's sufficient. When the time comes, we'll select the best ones (in addition to a Justy, should someone apply for him) and set up a battle tier.

Code:
 
[b]Name:[/b] Character's name
[b]Nickname:[/b] Character's nickname -- optional if character doesn't have one.
[b]Age:[/b] Character's age
[b]Trainer Orientation:[/b] Good, Neutral, Bad?
[b]Birthplace:[/b] Where your character was born/raised.
[b]Family:[/b] What are your character's family ties?

[b]Starter Pokémon:[/b] What Pokémon did your character start off with?

[b]Pokémon On Hand:[/b] Maximum of TEN. Mini-Pokémon profiles have to be included as well -- how does that Pokémon act? Is it loyal, is it naive, does it not like it's Trainer? Minimum of three sentences for each Pokémon mini-file. Please note, if they're not a puzzle-type Gym, they should have a Type that they specialize in. They should also have a variation of Pokémon. Weaker ones for weaker trainers, stronger ones for others.

[b]Gym Leadership At:[/b] Where is their Gym located? Duly note, this is your preferred location, and if two people pick the same town, the higher ranked one after the battle will pick their location first.

[b]Gym Layout:[/b] What is their Gym like? Are there any puzzles involved in it? What kind of building is it? Is it dark, is it lighted? Etc.

[b]Gym Style:[b] If you have a puzzle-type Gym Leader, this is where you describe the puzzle(s) and how a Trainer would go about winning. If you have a battle-style Gym Leader, you can delete this section.

[b]Badge:[/b] What does their Badge look like, and what is it called? Keep in mind, Badges tend to not be too overly elaborate.

[b]Town Motto:[/b] What is the proposed Motto for the town you're wanting to have? Feel free to put multiple ones, or even ones for different towns/cities if you're not sure where you want your Leader to be.

[b]Appearance:[/b] Your character's appearance. Please be detailed and provide at least two paragraphs.

[b]Picture (Optional):[/b] Have a picture of your Trainer? Post it!

[b]Personality:[/b] How does your character act and interact with other people? Minimum of two paragraphs.

[b]Personal History:[/b] I wanna know about your character! What was he/she like when they were growing up and before it was they became a Trainer? Minimum of four paragraphs.

[b]RP Sample:[/b] This time around, we're going to require that you do RP samples for the Leader in question.
