Welcome to Gaia! ::

KTS gets credit here, he gave me the idea of doing a Pokemon Guild roleplay for the rest of this year.

The more users participating the better!

Here's how it works...

You pick a Pokemon (there are 492 of them so I think it will be easy to choose one) and your only "human" quality you have is speech.

(Like Meowth of Team Rocket from the show)

The basic idea here is to rescue a Mysterious Pokemon found in a far away dungeon with powers to transform you back to your previous human self.

In order to get there, you must visit all the regions and rescue each gym leader who has been locked away within their own gym by a "signature" Pokemon.

Signature Pokemon - A Pokemon you have seen on the shows or for sure know a certain trainer uses. Example - Onix is Brock's Signature Pokemon and Brock has been captured by Onix due to Criminal activity.

When you beat the "Signature Pokemon", you unlock a Hidden Move because you have found a Gym Treasure.

I am going to be a Sceptile with the following moves:

1. Blade Leaf (TM)
2. Synthesis (TM)
3. Rock Smash (HM 02)
4. Cut (HM 01)

Hidden Moves can be aquired or already known. These are the Hidden Moves available:

1. Cut - a normal move that can clear away tiny trees.
2. Rock Smash - a fighting moves to smash rocks or tee hee hee sleeping Geodude. (Must obtain one Gym Treasure)
3. Fly - a flying type move that makes it easier to travel to places you've already been. (Must obtain 2 gym treasures to unlock)
4. Surf - a water move that allows you to cruise over calm waters (Must obtain 3 gym treasures)
5. Waterfall - a water move that gets you over the waterfalls. (Must obtain 4 gym treasures to unlock)
6. Dive - a water move that will allow you to hide underwater and allows you to swim through fast currents. (Must obtain 5 gym treasures to unlock)
7. Whirlpool - a water move that simply allows you to pass over whirlpools. Note, you cannot dive under whirpools unless you wish to drown. Bwahahahahahaha! (Sorry) (Must obtain 6 gym treasures to unlock)
8. Rock climb - a ground move that allows you to scale cliffs. (Must obtain 7 gym treasures to unlock)
9. Dig - a ground type move that gives you underground access. (Must obtain the last Kanto Region Gym treasure to get this)
10. Flash - an electric move that lights up dark caves and tunnels. (Must obtain first Johto Gym Treasure to unlock)
11. Sweet scent - a grass type move that prevents other pokemon from fleeing (Like legendary scaredy cats) or hiding. (Must obtain 2nd Johto Gym treasure to unlock)
12. Secret Power - a mystery move depending on the type of Pokemon you are. This will be your permanent best attack move. (Must obtain 3rd Johto Gym treasure)
13. Attract - a psychic move that will immobilize the opposite gender and confuse the same gender. (Must unlock 4th Johto Gym Treasure)
14. Sweet Kiss - a normal move that can put a Pokemon to sleep. (Unlock 5th Johto Gym treasure)
15. Destiny Bond - a Dark Move that will take your opponent down with you. (This is your final Hidden move, must rescue Professor Oak who becomes your trainer after that)

I kinda figured it was something like that, but still, you gave me an idea for a roleplay.

Okay, we have one Pokemon so far. Now, since I want to do the first bit like a step by step thing so others know what to do, KTS, would you mind volunteering to help with this?

The next step is once we have our pokemon forms, we have to pick our original character names. Who we will transform back into once we are finished our journeys.

Oh, and once we rescue professor Oak, we get a special Pokedex just for Pokemon. Kinda like a collar for us. It will register who've we met already.

But, the thing is, we won't be able to "capture" wild Pokemon until after we've saved Oak.

See, after we save Oak, he will take us as far as the Hoenn region and pass us off or trade us to Professor Birch where we are then instructed the routes to go. It is here that we actually start making Pokefriends and asking them to join us on our journey's. Some will say yeah, sure why not? Others will want to battle us first.

We will encounter all the Pokemon we have from Kanto onward in the wild in Hoenn (Because its such a large region). And once we've befriended up to the legendaries Kyogre, Groudon, and Rayquaza (yay, I remembered the green snake legendary in Emerald, whoo hoo!) then we are literally shipped off to the Almia region to find the Pokemon Ranger School for a side mission.

Once we technically complete the "Pokemon Ranger game" in role play mode as Pokemon (should be interesting, like writing the book for it), then we are off to the Orre Region where there is a rumor where we were originally turned into the forms we are (since we cannot remember a thing about why we were transformed in the first place and all we know is its a human that did it.)

We help a rebel trainer out purify 50 Pokemon, then we are shipped to a lab in the region because our human rebel friend in the Orre region claims he may be able to help us. (Too bad for us, our adventure won't end there. Sorry, spoiler)

We help purify even more Pokemon and have some fun doing this. All the while adding to our Pokedex (in the way it should be. For Pokemon not trainers).

When we finish in the Orre Region, the professor reveals the bad news good news situations on us. He cannot cure us like he thought, but there is one professor in the final region who can. The thing is, this professor always asks for something in return for his help.

That's right, Professor Rowan in the Sinnoh Region knows who transformed us into our Pokemon forms and he's downright furious about it! So, we explore the entire Sinnoh region, including having some underground fun, winning contests too, and completing our Pokedex. Upon getting the 492nd Pokemon as our friend... we automatically transform back, but, with a gift attached to us. Since we've been all over the Pokemon world, and we grew as Pokemon pretty much, we know how to perform these moves we have learned instinctively.

(This will lead to the next RP we will do as a guild which deals with wielding elements.)

We have to defeat the human villain and save the mysterious Pokemon using our Pokemon powers as humans.

Oh, and for another fun twist... instead of only being able to know 4 moves (that tends to be annoying for the games), once we learn a move we won't be able to forget them.

The TM moves are the ones we will only be able to teach a Pokemon once where as the HMs can be taught to multiple pokemon.

Well, this isn't exactly like the games. Call it like a Gaian made fan fiction of how we think it should have gone. I gave the outline, now we can roleplay.

Third person speech though.

Uh... was that a question aimed at me? Who is Yoom-Tah?

I don't understand. And what do you mean by adding the Wigglytuff guild?

***********************************************

A female sceptile, nameless wandered about the Kanto region lost. One minute she was human and the next she took on this form. She had to admit, she liked the idea of being able to feed oneself through the Chlorophyll ability, but still, being lost was one thing she did not like.

She was able to see a lot of different pokemon through the tall grass minding their own business. A bunch of pidgey and rattatta mostly. She had to smile at how peaceful they looked.

The sun was hot that day and the bulbs on her back glowed brightly. They were taking in the rays like water. Soon enough, she came upon a dainty little town known as Pallet.

An elderly looking Pikachu was scrambling about outside looking like he was in a panic.

"Excuse me, Pikachu, I was wondering... where am I and if I may ask, what's going on? May I do something to help?"

The Pikachu stopped racing around and titled his head at the Sceptile. He dashed up to the sceptile and shook the sceptile's leafy hand. "Oh thank you, thank you!" The Pikachu chattered excitedly, "Its about time someone came along to help! My name is Pika. You are in Pallet town."

The sceptile gazed around and then looked back at Pika. She smiled but then looked at how deserted the town was. She asked, "Pika, this may sound totally crazy, but I had lost my memory of what my name was. All I know is I am a sceptile and that I have come from a far off land. Could you perhaps explain what happened here?"

Pika paced back and forth again, then said, "My trainer... Ash... he was kidnapped! I have not seen him since a year ago or more! I miss him terribly! We've been through a whole heap together and... and..."

Pika looked like he was about to cry, so the Sceptile gave him a warm hug. She said, "Everything will be okay, Pika. For now... how about you give me a name? Then we can travel together town by town, region by region and see if we cannot make some sense out of what's going on, okay?"

Nodding with a sniff, Pika replied, "Okay."

And so, off to route 1 once again Pika and the Sceptile now known as Tila Specs headed towards their first town known as Viridian City.

(Ah, now I get it. Tee hee hee)

Tila and Pika saw the Cyndaquil coming up to them, and looking lost. Tila wandered up to the new Pokemon and asked, "Hi, are you wondering what happened too? My name is Tila, and my buddy here is named Pika. We'd be glad to help you out if you're lost. We're on a mission to find out my true name and what happened to Pika's trainer Ash."

Tila smiled and replied, "Sure! I think the first stop is Viridian City. For some reason, I have a good sense of direction retracing my steps. It must be the grass type in me. So, I know eventually I will find out how far I actually travelled. All I know is, I travelled a long ways."

Pika nodded, "That's right. Viridian City is our first stop. And here we are, in fact. The first thing we should do while we are here, since the other Pokemon in the grass didn't seem to even be aware of what is going on nor bothered by our travelling through their territory, is check out the Pokemon Center and see if the Nurse Joy here is okay. If my hunch is correct, and I am no psychic pokemon, keep in mind, then the Chansey that is usually kind here has gone completely beserk and will attack us on sight. See, when my Master went missing, I felt moments when things were going wrong. Its like, he was possessed or something. I dunno why he didn't want to take me with him, but he did seem kind of freaked when I could suddenly start talking. He claimed that I was Meowth in Disguise battled me until I was unconscious and then fled. I hadn't seen him since."

Tila then piped up and said, "Well, if you suddenly started talking human talk, and the only one before then was this Meowth you speak of, then wouldn't it stand to reason that there is a possibility that the Meowth is involved with this somehow?"

Pika made his cheeks glow, from the memories of past experiences with them, but then sighed, "I doubt it. Meowth is smart, but not smart enough to pull the vastness of the crime I am seeing. Nah, from what I can tell, this is a global thing. It could take us a while before we get you and our new friend here back to your original selves."

(We are in Viridian City silly. No bushes around to rustle in unless you are talking about behind the tree I can cut down.)

Tila raised her hands in surrender flailing them about and shouting, "No! We mustn't invite criminals into our gang of friends! Do you know, Kona, how many times they tried stealing our friend Pika here? Somehow I have flashes of these memories of when I was a human and I clearly remember those three trying to steal Pika many times!"

Pika was shocked (sorry bad play on words there) to hear Tila stand up for him like that. He then took a whiff behind her tail and sneezed! He then said, "Pardon me for sneezing, but Tila, I think your real name is Dee! An Empress of untold power, strength, and abilities. The latest I heard, before whizzing on the paper I read, was that there was an Empress Dee that went missing the same day that Ash went mad. She had been walking through someplace in the Hoenn region along with her level 100 sceptile named Terry when a strange disaster occurred there. I had been reading it aloud, like I usually do, but... instead of my usual Pokemon talk, I could speak human! Believe me, I was just as stunned as Ash was when I realized I could speak. Plus, if I may ask, do I sound... uh... attractive to any of you? Sorry, I guess I had been around Brock of the Pewter City Gym too long."

Dee laughed and said, "I like the name Dee better. And, hey, I wouldn't date you, but someone else might. Then again, our bloods couldn't mix to create an egg anyway Pika. Even if I was a pure bred Sceptile. Ha, ha, ha!"

Pika blushed and then he crept up to the Pokemon Center. He asked, "Kona, Dee, are you ready for this? We may have to save someone right now."

" The sooner I deliver this egg to Professor Oak, the sooner I can get out of this region. " The ninetails had a saddle bag strapped to her and inside was a poke egg she was to deliver to the Professor. She soon arrived in Viridian City " Why did Professor Birch have to choose me to take this egg? could he have gotten a chansey to do it?"
