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.

Oh hay, it's about time I went and made a new announcement!

So, new changes to the site... lesse.

Last Names
I'm making last names mandatory just for aesthetics and site continuity. Shiay can kick me if she REALLY hates the idea and decides she doesn't want to do this, (I really don't see the rub... last names, they EXIST, people.) so check back if the notion frightens you and might ruin your day.

That being said, this goes for canons aswell, and if you have a canon without a sur name, you can either post here telling me what said new name is (made up, japanese version's first name, whichever you want to do, guys) and I'll go update lists with them, orrr I might be sending out a collective PM to anyone with a last name-less character to collect said surname.

It's not really a big issue, so I'm not going to breath down your back while you strain your imagination muscles to come up with one, but eventually I'd like to see a pretty, fleshed out list with them all. I know the anime operates on a "What? Last name? Screw that, I don't pay taxes!" basis, but all the originals and then some have last names e.e; so it looks odd that the canons DON'T.

There was a bit of reformatting done to the Canon Character topics concerning some of their stuff, mostly just clarification and the additoon of a NPC section.

NPC Canon List

Canon Characters -- NPCs
 
NPCs
These characters are not banned, as we allow their play, obviously, we just do not want profiles submitted for them given how minor they are. We do not want applications for these characters, with very few exceptions, as there are more important canons in need of claiming.

NPC canons that can be used in any appropriate RP. Anyone can use them, even if the NPC is their own character in the thread and they're doing it for fun (be sure it is okay with other parties involved), or the character can be shared among the people in the thread. They don't need profiles and they can be/should be dropped after they serve their purpose when you're using them. (IE: Playing a Joy to heal your Pokémon/show your character around the Center or something.)

You may argue to claim one of the ones on the list if you want, but we're likely to decline. The ones we are most likely to accept arguments on are the minor-ish Rangers in Fiore (Pokémon Ranger) and Almia (Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia) because they can be fleshed out within reason and travel more readily than some of the other characters.

The only NPCs we... restrict selectively are some canon parents. For example, it would make more sense for the player of Max or May to take control of their mom than it would for any one else. The exception is when said family member is a person like Norman, who we would accept an application for anyways. Otherwise, if they are listed as an NPC, they are fair game until they are removed, even if they are a parent.


Canon Characters -- Mod Powers
 
Moderation Powers Of "Stationary" Canons
A list in full of the moderation powers you will have should you be accepted as a Professor, Gym Leader or Elite/Brain (Stationary Canons, basically, canons that do not travel heavily). These moderation powers do not make you a sitely moderator or a staff member and they are only usable in your home forum (Gym, Laboratory, League). They are given to you to help you run your home forum. You shall not abuse these powers in any way, shape, or form.

Abuse in the ways of locking/deleting threads because you don't like said person/RPer — you know what, deal with it, even if you don't like the person, this is an RP site and we're going to have fun... dammit! You should only close topics that have been finished. Once the battle is over and the challenger has left, and the thread tallied, close the thread if it has not already been done. If the thread is not tallied in two weeks since the final post, you may close it.

[size0]-Ability to edit topic titles.
-Ability to close and open topics.
-Ability to move topics. (Spam only or at RPer's request.)
-Ability to pin and unpin topics to allow for "Gym Rules" stickies or similar.
-Ability to split/merge topics.

EDIT: Forgot this. Advents are still go obviously, Shiay is trying to finish them up as swiftly as she can manage, so ne'er fear.

Things coming in the near future in relative order:
Rules on this "random trainer before Gym Leader" stuff that's been coming up.
A list of the worldly changes since PF takes place six years post. Cleaning up of the Item/Money guide
Cleaning up of the Team stuff, and, yes.
Yes.
The rest of the damn guides.
...
Don't look at me like that.
