Quoting the other VCs just to see if maaaybe they're alive. And here, I thought Riku was the most infallible of us all... He wasn't the first captain of this guild though.
Sori, I agree that it's a shame to see this go down since I shared your sentiments when I first joined. I'm surprised to see that only you two have posted anything at all this month though. I was so excited to see that v6 might finally get somewhere since everyone was so excited! There are two new people who want to join, but I don't know if I should let them in with the inactivity crash that's gone on here. I'd like to think that the guild will come back, but there's a distinct possibility that we admins are just tired. I've been here for v5 and v6 and had to do some serious resuscitation work (with Death) myself, and everyone else in the Admin has been there longer than me. Maybe much longer. Maybe it's time for a new generation to run this? Riku seems to still be around, albeit elsewhere. I'd come back, but this RP is too long for the time I have, and I'm not sure if I can pull off coming back for summers only. Life. XD;;
Sori, Fang, do either of you want to take over captaincy? I can't do anything about it as a VC, but if either of you like the idea enough and Riku has no time, he may pass it over.
Death, which Pokemon is it that should or shouldn't be on the Route? Maaaybe I can decide instead?

My deepest apologies to everyone here for not being as active as I should be.
Honestly, inspiration and motivation has been at an all time low for me, especially seeing all my guilds not moving in spite of my absence. This isn't the only one to suffer lately. Nevertheless, I think a break was all I needed, so I will do my best to come back. As for this guild, I too feel it's getting old reviving the thing over and over again so I think we should accept the two new people to see if they will come in immediately. I will get a few more of us to post and if it really wants to die, let it. Someone else may take over control if they wish but if (worst case scenario) no one wants to bring it back, might I propose a complete remake of the thing.
Granted, I think we would be hard-pressed to find new people to take part in another remodel as nearly everyone who searches "Pokemon" and "RP" has at least looked us over.
Nevertheless, everyone's opinions matter. I've given my side. What say you?
And what do you mean, Ninten?

I'll happily return if this were shorter in scope. With college going on and literally every assignment (not just GPA) point mattering (and starting off not-so-strong), I'm unlikely to be able to maintain activity in a group RP that's supposed to move faster than 3wks/post. I bet that once ORAS comes out, there will be at least some flare-up of interest again, but will it last? Given the general inverse relationship between plot/player complexity.diversity and survivability, I don't know.
If anyone wants to 1x1 with Yuki, sure, perhaps. More likely if you want to play with (Ryuu)Jin, my Lugia gijinka, especially as Ho-Oh, but the ideas I have here have kinda narrow character scopes. Even in the 1x1 department, though, I've got too many RPs to be very healthy, and my plotting for Pokemon has never been strong.
And Sori said you had a Pokemon you asked Riku for permission to exist on a route?
Howdy there, Everyone! Thank you for letting me in!

Yes, I am elsewhere on Gaia, but I do check the guild time and again. If the two new people would like to join, I am fine with that. Having some new members might get some of the others back in here.

I left Bunnelby off the list that the NPC gave, so that is the one everyone is looking for. He found it, and I just haven't gotten around to responding (again). My apologies to both Ninten and JD for that. Honestly I forgot to write it on there, but that's just how it happened, and I guess we just roll with it.

I'm in agreement, and I think that everyone is waiting on someone else to post, and nobody has an idea of who should post next... If, say it has to happen, a complete remake of the guild happens, what are some of your ideas?

In any case, I'll do what I can to get an NPC post up for JD, and that might get some things going again.
Howdy there, Everyone! Thank you for letting me in!
Howdy! Welcome to the guild! Get a profile up, and get something ready for Green, and I'll get you in-game. biggrin

So I was seeing that we start with our avatar's first Pokemon. Does this mean that I am going to start out with a Scyther? If so that is going to be amazing.

Actually, not quite. You will start with the standard starter from the video games, but later on, the players will receive the Pokémon they had in the manga. If I recall, Green had gotten a Charmander, so you'll be getting that.

Yes, Green started with the Charmander. ^^ I really don't think I can't do wrong with Green's team.

Hi, you two! I'm Nintendraw, and I had played Cheren for a while, but college means I can't keep up regular posting here, so I'm more of an adviser/lurker now. Welcome to the guild!
Welcome indeed ^^ You can call me Death twisted |I play Diamond here and I'll be working with the others to get this back up and moving. I assume you two are up to date with how and where to start off, yes?

No worries. Take your time, get familiar, then you can worry about jumping in. I'm sure we'll still be around for you to catch up.
