REFERENCE FORUM
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛


~This Reference Forum is present to ensure that no mistakes are made when you are making your profile and provide an area of information where you can constantly come back to so that you can understand exactly how this system works. Beneath this introductory post, there will be several posts addressing certain requirements and aids so that your experience here will be easy and fun. Aside from the basic rules, this Guide will enable you to understand what must be done in RP.


RULES
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛


Literacy
This is a Literate or Semi-Lit Guild. Because of this, one-liners are greatly discouraged and frowned upon. Try to be descriptive (not to the point of over-excess) and make sure your post overall makes sense.

Powers - Godmodding - Auto Hits
Do not be under the impression that your character is the most powerful, everyone must have a weakness and no one should have devastating mass-destructive powers. No one is the main character, there are only those superior in rank and experience. Auto hitting is not allowed, you can only land a hit on someone else if they accept the hit. Keep in mind to be realistic, if a larger attack is blocked, the one blocking should still receive some damage or lose energy. Take actual Pokemon strategies into mind. A higher level Fire-type will obviously have a greater advantage over a starter Grass-type. Pick your battles wisely. This is an RP of strategy.

Canon Characters
You are not allowed to RP as a character that exists as a canon character in the Pokemon Series. You are not allowed to RP as an individual who is related to any canon characters in the series unless approved by the Captain. Please keep information as canon as possible to prevent the loss of a genuine Pokemon experience.

Cursing - Ratings
Cursing is allowed, but in minimum amounts. If you are cursing excessively to the point where it is noticeable by other members other than the Guild Captain, you will be asked to stop. If this continues, you will be excused from the Guild. Sexual activity or any form of romance that is deemed excessive is not permitted.

Characters
To get started, it is recommended you go to the New Member page, especially if you are a new member. Follow the instructions on the New Member page to create a character. If you are having trouble, please contact a moderator. You cannot post in the RP until your character has been approved.

Gaia TOS
All of the rules above are in addition to the already established Gaia Terms of Service.

POKEMON RULES
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛


This particular section will describe the rules of the RP. It his highly recommended you consult this before embarking on your adventure.


RULES
┗━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┛


On Pokemon
• If you are starting off as a new trainer, you are limited to only 3 beginning Pokemon. Once you have those Pokemon, you may only catch another Pokemon after a two calendar day waiting period. For example:

"John has caught his Pokemon on December 17. He must now wait (18-19) until December 20 until he can catch his next Pokemon- and so on and so forth."

This rule is put in place to prevent players from intentionally catching multiple Pokemon in one day- where it would not be realistic. It is wise that you carefully plan out your team. Also- take into consideration what Pokemon are available within your area. For example:

"You can only catch Pokemon in that section that correspond to the section. If you are in water, it would not be logical to come across a Pidgey. It would make sense, though, if you caught a Magikarp in the water."

Note: Follow the Pokemon List to determine what Pokemon will be easier or harder to find and where to find it.

Time
The seasons that take place in this guild are exactly that of the Eastern Standard Time Zone. The guild will be following the actual calendar day of Eastern Standard Time. The events that take place actually fall within the day they were posted.

The months are as follows:
December- January- February = Winter
March- April- May = Spring
June- July- August = Summer
September- October- November = Fall

Legendaries
ABSOLUTELY NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO SAY THAT THEY HAVE CAUGHT OR FOUND A LEGENDARY POKEMON WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM THE GUILD CAPTAIN OR GUILD MODERATORS. I will be having specific arcs where Legendary Pokemon will be available for interaction or capture, where a system will be set up and designed so that each member has a fair opportunity to capture it. Chances are highly likely that the legendary will not be captured, however.

Starter Pokemon
There will be only three available of every single existing starting Pokemon. You do not have to start with a starter Pokemon, however if you choose to do so, it must be a Level 1-5 of any other un-evolved Pokemon. Starter Pokemon are given as a first-come-first-serve basis.

For example: There will only be a total of three existing Charmanders, so only three members will be able to own a Charmander.

This starter Pokemon cap will be refreshed when all members have filled up the slots for starter Pokemon for ALL generations.

For example: "If there are absolutely no starter Pokemon for Fire-Types left over, the Fire-Type list is refreshed. If all three Charmanders are taken but there are still two Tepigs available, you must choose Tepig."

Evolving
A member will be able to Evolve their Pokemon after a significant amount of posts have been reached. (It is safe to say 30). This proves that you are spending enough time with the Pokemon and going through enough training sessions with the Pokemon. Here are some examples of what is NOT considered a post.

"John runs and has Charmander do a fire attack." One-lined sentences are NOT considered posts.

"Lol XD Whats up." All OOC comments are not considered posts.

"Bump." Bumping or gif posts are also not considered posts.

In this guild, the definition of a proper RP post exceeds at least five sentences and properly responds to a previous action/description provided by the other Roleplayer.

Items and Inventory
One does not just randomly find stuff in the grass as the RP goes along. A list will be provided in the description of each thing that is available within that area. Be realistic with what it is you find and where.

Guild Moderators
Guild Moderators will be appointed to determine whether or not your posts make any logical sense. They will determine if your posts are RP appropriate and acceptable to the Pokemon RP. If they find a problem, they will consult you immediately and indicate your error. If they provide a logical reason, it is not wise that you argue against it. If they approach you and reprimand you without any reason (or for an illogical reason)- consult me (the Guild Captain), and you will be pardoned from them. IF YOU WISH TO ARGUE AGAINST A GUILD MODERATOR'S WORD, YOU MUST CONSULT THE GUILD CAPTAIN TO ARBITRATE THE MATTER. Aside from the aforementioned exceptions, the Guild Moderator's word is final.
