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.

Hello, hello! PokéFiends PC here with more news of things that are going on, especially with Shiay, since she won't be able to be tending to things in the near future (I mean about around the beginning of June, that is). The things on our list of things to be discussing are:

  • Winter Advent Winners
  • The Pondera Region contest!
  • Smilie Contests
  • Staff application notices
All right...so first things first, right? Let's go with the winners of the Winter Advent since I have the odd feeling that no one really caught wind of this.

With the scores being what they are, here's the list from the most amount of points to the least amount:

1. Tilla
2. Motax
3. BoriBam
4. PanicAttack
5. Seed
5. WildMitzol
6. Doogie
7. Brando the Trainer

I know that Shiay would like to thank everyone for participating in the Jaydin's Playground Advent, and and apologizes for taking so long to be getting to this (and especially for having me do this) - however, this is only information I receive from a half awake Shiay as she toddles back on to bed to go right on back to sleep. =w=;

Tho yes, here you have it! Congratulations to Tilla, Motax and BoriBam who can all discuss which one of the three Winter Sneasel/Weavile that they would like to be having (Peppermint, Spearmint and Cinnamon) in addition to their 8,000 Poké:

As for the rest of the people that participated, everyone gets an extra 6,500 Poké tacked onto their PC upkeep thread. It's only so high because it's a way of Shiay apologizing to everyone to be waiting for this. In addition to said Poké, users that participated will also be getting the Crystal Chimecho put into their Event remembrance that's also in their PC upkeep.

Other things that all participants will be receiving:

1 Frontier Pass
1 Contest Pass
1 Random Fossil
2 Random Hold Items
5 Random Medicines
5 Random Berries/Apricorns
5 Random Pokéballs (excluding Apricorn made capsules)
6 Random Trade-able/Valuable items


The full thread and scores can be found here. I would also like to be saying that both Harlem and Shiay, both, are aware that they haven't awarded everyone their prizes yet and will be getting to that during this week. Apologies the the inconvenience on behalf of the entire staff of PokéFiends.

Next in our list is the Pondera Region contest! This is a fan-made region that was created and implemented by both Shiay and MizuJakkaru and we would actually love to be getting assistance with fleshing out the region more than what we have for it already. This means that we're going to be asking for people to be giving us ideas for towns, monuments, natural structures and many other things that people would like to be seeing in the region!

You won't only be asked to be making towns or city ideas either (or whatever it is that we asked for). Users will also be having the choice to be making recolored Pokémon for the region. We're doing this because the place is foreign, and just like on the Orange Islands, we're wanting uniquely colored Pokémon that Trainers will be free to be capturing once we get the region up. Keep in mind that these Pokémon are only to be from generations one - four. Because generation five hasn't been fully released, we will not be asking for people to be using them for their entries.

Another contest that we will be having is a contest pertaining to smilies that we've been meaning to be getting on here. Since Shiay has admitted to not be good at spriting smilies all that well and we don't really have anyone on staff that can that well anymore, we're asking for members to be helping in getting us to be having new smilies instead of these weirdo ones that we currently have.

Do not think that these contests will not have prizes, either! Shiay is willing to be putting up a list of things that she has collected in her Pokémons Diamond, Platinum, HeartGold and SoulSilver games for the winners. These things include EV raising items that she's won via Battle Tower, rare hold items, rare berries and something that a lot of people will be interested in: Shiny Pokémon. All of these things were obtained legitimately and the lists will be put up at the time Shiay posts the announcement for the start of the contests.

The very last thing that I would like to be covering is staff positions. First off, congratulations to Doogie for getting the Gym Leader position! A PM will be sent to you in the near future. To those of you who applied but didn't get a spot, don't feel bad. We're still a small site and we'll grow soon enough. When we do, you're all still able to apply again. ^^

In all honesty, we're actually still looking for new staff members for the site so that RPers can get their ball rolling and so that it doesn't take so long for things to get going since the site is still relatively new. The positions that we have on the site that need people who are interested in said positions are:

Pokémon Instructors - Pokémon Instructors hold the ability to accept and reject certain Trainer profiles. They also teach people to better build their role playing capabilities within the PokéSchool in the Trainer Registry section of PokéFiends.

Champions - People put in the Champion position get to control any one of the the Champions of the regions that are after the Elite Four characters. They are allowed to take on Champions that other people have, so long as the original RPer for the Champion has posted a thread in the Goodbyes forum that they're leaving. Champions may also take on the character if the original role player has been absent for over three days.

Elites - Elites are in charge of the Elite Four characters of any one of the regions. They take on the roll of the Elites when someone needs to be battling one. They are allowed only to the Elites and can take on playing an Elite that someone else has so long as the person that originally had the Elite posts in the Goodbyes thread or hasn't been active for more than three days.

Gym Leaders - Gym Leaders are put in charge of the characters that hold Gyms. They are allowed to take on any Gym Leader character that's being asked for if that character doesn't already have an RPer. They are also allowed to be taking on the role of a Gym Leader if that character's original RPer posts to be absent in the Goodbyes thread, or if the original RPer has been absent for more than three days. We have enough of these at the moment.

Professor/Researcher - Professors and Researchers are in charge of the laboratories and getting starter Pokémon distributed among RPers in the forms of Oak, Elm, Birch, Rowan and Ivy. They can also take on Researcher characters such as Gary Oak or Tracey Sketchit if their respective RPers have posted in the Goodbyes forum that they're not going to be around for a while. This also can come into play the the respective RPer is not around for three days or more and they thread needs to continue.

Aides - An Aide will be helping the Admins and other staff members with organizing threads and item posts in addition to the RPs that they will be having with other users. Unlike the other staff positions that we have, Aides will not be required to be upholding RP duties as wild Pokémon or Gym Leaders/Elites where needed. Though an Aide is allowed to be taking over only if they really want to be. They are not expected to, as they are only really expected to be helping with aforementioned duties.
