Welcome to Gaia! ::

Rules:
1. No RPing as other people. You may only RP as yourself and your Pokekids. You may take care of your own NPC, but be reasonable (They won't suddenly give you a $1,000 pokeball/Pokekid coupon). We will take care of the majority of NPCs however. Similarly, you can't say what someone else do (For example, saying Nurse Joy left for some time). If somebody is being slow to PM them, either politely PM them OR if they have PMs friends only or turned off, PM us and we'll take care of it.

2. No God-modding. If you decide to have a Pokekid battle somewhere, again, be reasonable. Look up info for your Pokemon. We'd be happy to give you an estimate on level and you can pick stuff up from there. Pokekid battles aren't recommended though. But again, you can't be all-powerful, if you're RPing catching a Pokekid, your Pokekid SHOULD get damaged, even if it's just a little. As mentioned in the Grassy Area thread, if you need help RPing the other Pokekid, let us know and one of us will do it.

3. You can NOT decide the weather. We will do it. If you think there should be a change, you're welcome to suggest it to us.

4. The only Pokekids you can RP as coming up in the wild to you are Pokekids you yourself have bought. We will RP 100% Pokekids that are RP only.

5. Be nice. No being rude to other people.

6. You MAY start your own RPs! Official RPs are stickied (And posted by Emi, Pokekids, or Louize) so you're welcome to RP in your own topics like "Your House" or even a Picnic with you and a few friends :3 Just remember you will only have a chance to get stuff at Official Stickied RPs.

7. There are no Professors other than "Professor Louize" and "Professor Emi". The Pokekid world is a completely different world from Pokemon. They are similar, but have appeared in a whole different place.

8. Similar to above, unless the Pokekid is for sale in our shop or is listed in the merchandise post (For example, Ditto and Jirachi are listed and shown, even though they aren't actually for sale), they are not yet "in the Pokekid World" and don't exist. Please don't say a Pokekid that doesn't exist came to you, because that wouldn't make sense!

9. As similar, don't mention "Pokemon" here, as Pokemon don't exist in this world. Only Pokekids.

10. By RPing here, you agree that we (Emi and Louize) are allowed to edit your posts incase they are incorrect.

11. Do NOT edit your post. You may fix typos, but that's it. No adding anything. No removing anything. NOTHING. If anything needs to be edited, Emi or Louize will take care of it. If somebody is confused about what you said, they can ask in an OOC note and you can clarify in one. End of story. It's less confusing this way.

12. A Pokekid may not have more than 4 moves. Choose carefully.

Specific Area FAQS

The Poke Center

1. Do not say what Nurse Joy does or moves to or whatever. If you're asking for her to heal your Pokekids, go ahead and RP her taking them, putting them into the machine, and taking them out and giving them back, 100% Healed. It helps save us time. But otherwise, leave her and any other NPC RPing up to us.

Grassy Area

1. When we post a special Pokekid, you must be the first to quote it. Within 24 hours, you must reply to it with an RP about battling it and catching it. If the full RP isn't done in 3 days (As we will probably reply back and whatnot), you will not get it. Once we say "*pokekid* has been captured! Congrats!" Please send the trade (100G for Regular, 250G for Legendary, and 500G for special). The chances of one coming is random and depends on how active the RP is. Remember this.

2. At this time, the pokekids available are: Shiny Chansey! But mostly worry about keeping it active and RPing the Pokekids you bought recently, as if the RP isn't active, a random Pokekid will not be posted.

3. You're also welcome to use this as just playing with your Pokekids outside.

4. You must have posted at least once BEFORE the pokekid is posted during the week it is posted, as to remove snipers. We also expect you to be somewhat active if you posted.

The Beach

1. This area is a very casual area. You may RP catching water Pokemon by fishing if you'd like.

2. Boats are all kinds. Speed boats, Jet Ski's (Okay, not really a boat, shush), Row boats, Kayaks, Canoes, etc. There's even a cruise that leaves every so often, but it lasts two days :3

Team Rocket HQ

1. This area is incredibly important, so please be mature here. You will most likely work together with fellow trainers, but you don't have to. You can not RP new Pokekids coming up to you, but you can say some of the Pokekids you managed to release decided to stay with you, as long as you've bought them before.

2. It's a full out RP area. Until you have completely gone through and released some Pokekids OR have been defeated by Team Rocket, you may not RP elsewhere. We will make mistakes sometimes, but in the future, if you try to catch a Pokekid while in Team Rocket HQ in another RP area, your post will be deleted and you will not be allowed.

3. All NPCs will be RPed by us. You will be randomly challenged to battles as you go along, so if you don't like battling, don't RP in this place.

4. If the Battle isn't replied to within 2 days, you will automatically be considered as if you lost and will have to RP at the Poke Center healing your Pokekids before trying again or going somewheree else.
