PJT ‘14 — Sign-ups Opened for Stand-ins, Rules & More!

We opened sign-ups for our PokéJungle Tournament 2014 (or PJT ‘14, as we’re going to call it!) two days ago and within 24 hours all initial competitor slots were filled! We’re incredibly excited to see so many of you want to take part in our tournament and we can’t wait until we kick start off the first round.

Stand-in Sign-ups

It’s expected that a few of our competitors will have to drop out due to unforeseen circumstances, because of that we’re offering 10 more of our readers a chance to get in. The sign-ups below are for stand-in competitors, while it’s not guaranteed anyone who signs up for a stand-in position we’ll get to participate in the tournament, you’ll be our first port of call should we need more players. There will be 10 slots available for stand-in players, and should we require one of you to take part in the tournament we will randomly select names from the list to fill tournament slots.

Stand-in sign-ups should be completed using the form below, but please remember spaces are limited! Since closing sign-ups we’ve had two spots freed up, which means we’re actually offering the first two stand-on sign-ups the final two places in our tournament, so act fast!

[spoiler][/spoiler]

Confirmed Competitors

Though everyone who signed-up to the tournament has been given a place, we thought it best to display a list of competitors who have successfully gained, that can be found below! If any of you wish to withdraw from the tournament we will be providing a withdrawal form nearer the start of the tournament. Of course, you can also contact us in any other way beforehand.

Tournament Rules

Perhaps most importantly for this post, we’ve decided to share the first revision of our Official Tournament Rules. For the most part these will be the final rules we use in the tournament, though we’re still making adjustments here and there to perfectly tailor them. If after reading them you no longer wish to partake, that’s absolutely fine and as we said above: let us know and we will withdraw you from the tournament.

The PokéJungle Summer 2014 Tournament will use a rule set that has been modified from the VGC ‘14 Season Official rules. All players taking part in the tournament are required to abide by all rules set out below. Anyone found breaking them will be disqualified immediately. As well as following these rules players are expected to conduct themselves with common courtesy before, during and after the battle period.

Players will be responsible for arranging when a battle will take place, although we will provide platforms for you to do so. After the battle both players must report the results of the battle. We ask that all players save their battles in their Vs. Recorder so that it can be used for confirmation of battle results if a dispute occurs.

Pokémon

When choosing Pokémon to take part in the PokéJungle Tournament, it’s important they all conform to our rules for entry, as seen below.

  • All Pokémon must be legitimately obtainable in Pokémon X & Y. We are allowing transferring of Pokémon from older games through Poké Transporter
  • The following Pokémon are banned: Mewtwo, Mew, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Celebi, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Jirachi, Deoxys, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Phione, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Reshiram, Zekrom, Kyurem, Keldeo, Meloetta, Genesect, Xerneas, Yveltal and Zygarde.
  • Species Clause: No two Pokémon can share the same Pokédex number
  • Two or more Pokémon cannot have the same nickname in a team
  • Pokémon cannot be nicknamed using the name of another Pokémon. (For example naming a Sewaddle “Snover”)
  • Pokémon able to Mega Evolve are allowed to do so
  • Any Pokémon used by players that are above Level 50 will be lowered to Level 50. Pokémon below Level 50 will remain as they are
  • Players will be required to use 6 Pokémon throughout the tournament. These Pokémon will remain the same through the entire tournament and cannot be changed.

General

  • All matches will be played in the Singles, 6 VS. 6 format
  • Item Clause: No two Pokémon can hold the same held item
  • Your Pokémon team must remain the same through the entirety of the tournament. No changes are allowed unless we state otherwise
  • A disconnection from the battle will result in an automatic forfeit

Again, please remember that these rules for the most part are final, though we are still making adjustments. If you have any questions regarding the rules, or think we’ve got something wrong, please let us know in the comments and we’ll do our best to see to it.

  5. I’m so excited for this tournament!!! 😀 Best of luck to all the competitors! And I love the rules but I’m wondering if you’re going to add an evasion clause? Or even a sleep clause? They’re not fun to face against or fair when you can’t hit the person (evasion especially).

    Reply
  6. Woah, the comments look different… In a good way :p

    “Players will be required to use 6 Pokémon throughout the tournament. These Pokémon will remain the same through the entire tournament and cannot be changed.” This is probably the best rule. It won’t give players the opportunity to change their Pokemon and make a counter team for their opponent’s team 😀

  7. why are people asking for all legendaries to be banned some of them sucks and the other are permitted in VGC so whats the problem

    Reply
  8. How would you go about reporting someone for having an illegal Pokemon if they disconnect via removing the game card. The battle can not be recorded. So, what would be a solution?
    Also, will there be tiered battles (i.e. smogon – UU tiered battle)?

    Reply
  9. Q1.) Sleep Clause? Evasion Clause?

    A1.) We don’t intend to ban certain moves just because of how annoying they are. That to us only limits the choice of Pokemon you can use and nothing more. I as a matter of fact think using evasion and sleep takes precise timing(skill) to pull off; just spamming it won’t get you far.

    Q2.)Legends?

    A2.) the legends that are not banned are not banned simply because you can use them anywhere in the game, off or online; this means it was inteded by GameFreak to be used in battle. Altering this would just leave some teams completely open( because you can only use crappy alternatives) while other teams have no problem with it.I don’t see why just because they’re USUALLY better off in stats/abilities/moves you have no chance beating them and/or everyone only uses them. As for the event Pokemon(Genesect, Mew, etc.), the only reason they’re banned because well, they’re banned often offline and online.

    I think I’ve covered all the grievances so far. Feel free to ask more questions or discuss the choices we/I have made.

  11. What date roughly is the start ? I wouldn’t mind filling in but time difference is an issue because most people are american here but I’m in Ireland so a normal time in the evening is really late or the middle of the morning here : So I’d need plenty of warning before the battle.

    Reply
    • It’s planned to take place over summer, likely with a week to complete each round. That way you and your opponent should have plenty of time to take part.

      All being well, we’ll start about a month out from now.

          • Like, instead of just putting “Hi”, add something interesting to it, like, “Hey guys, what’s up? Today I was looking at a hexagon and realized… Blah blah blah something with Zygarde.”

  14. Well.
    I’d like to set some deadlines for Jade Jungle.
    June 1st- Finishing Touches
    July 1st- First Alpha + Website Creation + Download Link (2 gyms)
    August 1st- Second Alpha + Download Link (4 gyms)
    September 1st- First Beta + Download Link (6 gyms)
    October 1st- Second Beta + Download Link (8 gyms)
    November 1st- First Release + Download Link (Completed Game, bugs to be addressed)
    December 1st- Release Date + Download Link (Final, Complete, Near Perfect Game)

    This is a rough schedule. My plan is to have a first release by July. I also plan to release it around December, but any time before then is fine.
    I also plan to create and submit an article to PJ about Jade Jungle around June or so.

    I also plan to be involved in the creation of a website or blog, which will focus on giving updates about the game on a weekly basis.

    For the fanmade boxart, I plan to have it be Green and Purple. Half of it will have the Purification Legendary, and half will have the Polluition Legendary.

    If we come late with a release date, that’s fine. I just think it’d be nice to release it by the end of 2014. If that can’t happen, then we’ll shoot for a mid-2015 release date.

    Also, we need to determine our Pokedex size, any new moves, new types, new Pokemon, new mechanics, etc.

      • And the Pokémon details it uploaded aren’t exactly correct either. My Doublade probably defeated 20 Mewtwo, and yet when I search for Doublade, it doesn’t list 3 of the moves I gave it and says it never defeated a Pokémon.

  17. Does anyone think they’ll ever give all of the starters an equal chance to be a boy or girl? Like give all of them 50/50 gender probability in future games? I don’t get why it’s like 12.5% to get a girl starter…I have such bad luck with that. I’ve hatched over 30 fennekins and still have not gotten a girl. It’s always like this for me… -_-

  18. I don’t see what the big deal of using the none uber legends. I thought pokejungle was about “using what you want and your favorites.” Does that not apply to legendries as well?

      Anyyway, the uber legendaries are uber for a reason. They could easily destroy non legendaries if the proper strategy is used.

          • I’m peachy. Finally finished a massive Group Project. All that’s left is assignments now and another Group Project (which isn’t so bad).

          • i’m not really fan of group projects. Most of the time somebody doesn’t do their fair of work and the other people (usually me) have to putt their weight

          • In group projects I would rather do all the work myself, than let someone else do it wrong….I don’t even mind sharing the credit…as long as its up to my standards…that’s all that matters.

    • Well using legends is sorta cheap cause legends have a really high normal bst, making them strong off the bat but with some moveset they are OP ( even stronger than uberim IMO)

      HEATRAN for example can wreck if the right moveset

    • Pretty nice SpAtk, solid bulk all-around, diverse movepool (including Dragon Pulse and Stealth Rock via Transfer). With Air Balloon, pretty much can’t be OHKO’d by much. As of this Gen, destroyer of Fairies and it can be used in a variety of roles depending on what your team. It’s not OP, but just very versatile.

      • dont forget his typing, immunity to two status, so he cant be stalled to death(unless leech seed but who going to put a grass type against heatran)

        Reply
      • Heatran’s biggest problem is lack of recovery outside of leftovers, which you won’t be using if you have an Air Balloon, and Knock Off is a thing anyway.
        Also that weakness to Ground, once Air Balloon is gone, and weakness to Priority Mach Punch and Aqua Jet, although those Pokemon using those will not appreciate a burn (Unless Conkeldur)

        Reply
        • yeah many people uses leftovers and with the likes of garchomp been the most used ground type right now heatran isnt safe anymore

      • Proto-Crystals are items used to obtain Proto-type Pokemon. Basically, using a proto-Crystal allows the pokemon to revert to the original design with possible retyping, new stats, moves, or abilities included. Think of it as evolution. There was once one species that branched off (Ex. Humans and Neanderthals) one species went extinct, the other continued living. The Proto-Crystal contains the essence of the lost Pokemon. Somewhat of a fossil like item, somewhat like an evolutionary stone. If it’s used on a Pokemon that has a Proto-Form. Such as Chikorita, the pokemon reverts back into the species that went extinct/which it evolved from. (Original design) If the Pokemon did not get a chance or was never redesigned into a pokemon. Ex. Honoguma and Kurusu ( Beta Fire and Water starters of Johto) They can be obtained in the game using the Proto-Crystals and a key item called the Protizer. Which will randomly select a Proto Pokemon that could not be obtained through regular means (The ones that were not redesigned — Honoguma, Kurusu, etc)

        • Okay. Sounds somewhat iffy though. Also, what would Flora’s goal be then? I could see Eda wanting to make factories and stuff to mine/use Proto-Crystals for power and money, but idk Flora.

          Reply
          • Idunno. I’m not part of the story team o_o Mining works but how would that contribute to pollution other than the gases given off by mines.

          • Building factories and buldings and destryoing forests and etc in the process of getting land.

          • I know, but they’d fit in well. I was thinking Flora trying to restore the world to it’s natural beauty, bringing back the protocrystal pokemon that civilization killed off years ago?

          • Eda’s goals are solely my own darker desires
            Power…I want power

            In Zahrre Legends say that there were two powerful Pokemon, One that plagued everything it touched, one that rejuvenated the land. they are now long gone, but I discovered that if i took drastic measures i could summon them back to our world, and if I did i could capture them both and harness their great power for my own gain

            Basically what i would do if i “Completely” snapped

          • I could picture you taking all of the Proto-Crystals for yourself, and basically becoming the most powerful human being with Pokemon that no longer exist.

      • What? They’re items. Proto-Pokemon are different Pokemon. They’re technically different forms with different evolutionary branches. In the data, they’re treated as different Pokemon. This allowed for the name changes and stuff, so it was the most logical choice.

  21. Also, we have a nature and modern-day factoryish team, so I was wondering if, postgame, we could have a guy/team that is trying to catch the (hopefully) technology futuristic legendary. Also, for legends, what are we doing? Because I remember a Pollution horse Pokemon and am wondering what we should do for purification. Also, I think a Dragon/Steel Technological Dragon would be cool as yhe third legend.

The longer the user stays above half HP. the more powerful the attack becomes.

  28. So i has a Fakemon Idea
    It came to me when i was walking my Hell Hounds…

    So I noticed a weird thin tree that caught both my shirt and my attention
    a thin short whiteish tree/bush with tiny thorns that were almost like claws, it had long branches and the angle i was caught in made it look like a creature ”

    so it game me the idea of a Slender Plant creature with long root like limbs (Bipedal) with long arms with long clutching finger claws and the boy is thin to make it move faster and its scrawny frame allows it to slip behind anything to hide

    I was thinking of it being either a Grass/Ghost or Grass/Dark type based on trees that purposely latch on to you

  35. Why do you think Game Freak went all out for Vivillion? It has many great designs, two secret formes, great abilities, fantastic signature move, and killer moveset. It’s just a generic butterfly isn’t it? So why go all out?

    Reply
    • Vivillon is based on the adult stage (imago) of members of the Order Lepidoptera, such as butterflies and moths. The scales are now located on the wings and Vivillon’s species name is the “Scale” Pokemon. The scales still have a distinctive pixel-like shape. If you look at Vivillon’s eyes, they also appear to be inspired by pixels.

      The most exciting aspect of Vivillon’s design is the various wing patterns. The wing pattern is determined by the geographic location set on the Nintendo 3DS system of the original owner. There are 18 known wing patterns. This variety of wing patterns is most likely inspired by Polymorphism). Here is a piece of information on polymorphism in Lepidoptera, taken from Wikipedia:

      “Polymorphism is the appearance of forms or “morphs”, which differ in color and number of attributes within a single species. In Lepidoptera, polymorphism can be seen not only between individuals in a population, but also between the sexes as sexual dimorphism, between geographically separated populations in geographical polymorphism and also between generations flying at different seasons of the year (seasonal polymorphism or polyphenism)

    I just finished watching The Purge earlier today, and I’m wondering how its events can follow through in Jade Jungle, or the Pokemon world as a whole. We’ll need to make some changes due to the graphic content showcased in the movie, but the topic is fascinating.

    Reply
      • ~WARNING. READ WITH CAUTION. SPOILERS AHEAD.~
        The year’s 2022. The new Founding Fathers of America have, alongside the government, created an event that occurs once every year, called the Purge. For 12 hours, all weapons of Class 4 and above are legal, and all crime, including murder is legal. Emergency services and such are off until the following day.
        The story follows a man and his two children and wife. At the beginning of the movie, he comes home from work, sets up the security systems, and prepares for the Purge. The man’s son observes the security camera, and lets a homeless man enter the home, after pleading to come in. (Some romance between the man’s daughter and an overaged man appear here).
        A few hours in, these demonic species of people (people with creepy-ass masks) knock at the door and ask for the homeless man. They will spare the family in exchange for the man. The man had run around the house, hiding himself. The four go searching for the man, and eventually finds him with a gun at the daughter’s neck. He does not want to hurt the family, but also does not want to die. The man is shot by the wife, and then is taped up to a mattress, to be sent outside and given to the “Purgers.” The man rethinks his decision of doing that to the poor man, and lets him continue roaming around the home. The decision is made that they will fight the Purgers, since they had threatened to bring their equipment and eventually break into the home. The son is given a gun and is sent to the basement, and the remaining three spread out across the house. Things lead to one another, and the husband eventually dies. All of the Purgers are killed by the family and some nearby neighbors, who then decide to kill the family that they helped, too. The homeless man manages to prevent them from killing the family by poiting a gun at all of them. They then sit down and agree to have no more death or violence. The Purge shortly ends after, and as the neighbors are asked to leave the home, the mother, son and daughter watch the police and ambulence clean up the mess that has been made from this catastrophic event.
        The credits state that the 2022 Purge was the “most successful yet,” and a 2023 is planned as well.

        Sorry for the length, and for the irrelevence.

  46. @returnofdicie:disqus, if you want to include something like the Purge in JJ, maybe we can have something like an event where for 12 hours, you can’t heal your Pokémon in any way, and you have to go on a battling spree.

          • If this was the late 2013-early 2014 disqus there would be over 2,000 comments already, but we still haven’t touched 1,000… kinda sad how this is going quiet

          • Because people took it the wrong way! I’m sure the mods wouldn’t want this for their website! This isn’t what they meant it to be.

          • I don’t know… they don’t seem to be saying anything about it, i think they like it like this.

  47. So guys , i know it may seem we are in the doldrums of the time but we shouldn’t just point out its quiet.

    While we have no news wynaught work on the fangame a lot more, i mean its community fangame so discussion about it is allowed ( i presume) we could get alot of work done

  50. For a ghost gym I see a town that has a foggy area to it with a port. You need to use defog to head out into the sea since you can’t see anything. The port is empty and everyone stays inside their houses
    How does that sound :3

    Reply
    • Welllll Chip made the town already, so you’d have yo ask him. I REALLY like that defog idea though, and jf we could add that in, that’d be great.

      Reply
      • Well the looming fog in the town makes it mysterious and the fact it’s always foggy on the sea in the area means it opens potential for more water ghost types maybe

        Reply
          • Looking at the game it doesn’t have to be a gym town it could be an endgame town.
            And with all the background and interesting mystery behind it, it opens a lot of potential for the endgame story line

          • Remember how in B and W there was that town where no one went outside at night? We’ll there wasn’t too much to do, so I wanted to create a town which had lots of things to do and unanswered questions

    • I already have it made and it wouldn’t follow this at all…
      its in a forest and the gym is in an abandoned cathedral

      Reply
          • Again read further along the discussion and why are you being so rude…
            I wasn’t trying or am being rude to you at all….

          • First, you don’t need to be so imprudent about assuming how i’m stating something; i wasn’t being “rude” at all, I’m merely saying we already have something for the ghost gym town; you’re giving an idea for it (which i was quoting above).

            Then you say to read the discussions below, which i have been here for and participated in and i can assure you we never talked about possible ghost towns or anything so i really have no idea why you’re bringing it up.

            If you wanted to say first that it didn’t have to be a gym town, then you wouldn’t have mentioned the ghost gym anywhere in your suggestion; since you did, it led me to believe that you meant for it to be the ghost gym town, which i replied by saying we already have something for it.

            I know you weren’t trying to be rude or anything and were just saying a suggestion, but the rude part here is misinterpreting what someone else said and claiming them to be rude.

            Sometimes it takes initiative to realize maybe you’re wrong; I’ve done it many times before even with suggesting stuff for JJ. Whenever i do, i leave it up to question and if someone has something to say about it, i take it into consideration. I don’t get defensive about anything.

            Please next time take what others are telling you; if someone actually working on the game tells you it probably won’t work, chances are, it won’t work. This is something I’ve been trying to tell everyone for a while, that not everything can be added, not everything will be added, and what we already have probably won’t change.

            If you take offense to anything i have said above, then i apologize; what i say isn’t meant to hurt anyone’s feelings and is purely supposed to be constructive

          • But the fact you ignored my comment saying it doesn’t have to be a ghost gym town earlier made me think you ignored everything else and just carried on

          • Even so, I wasn’t asking for it to be added, it was an idea. Nothing more. It wasn’t even intended for the game.
            If you take initiative to read some ideas and instead of saying nope it won’t work, say I don’t really like it that much
            You came across as rude and almost as if you was just shooting it Down. Next time be more considerate of peoples feelings I wasn’t denying or agreeing that I was wrong or right, I was just simply stating my idea for fun

        • I was mainly talking about the port part because it was already in a forest, and the fact that it’s raining already produces some fog (because that’s what rain does)

          Reply
          • But what if it was perpetual fog that hasn’t disappeared for years?, remember in the pokemon universe things don’t make sense

  51. I’m going to put the idea for the ghost gym town here so you all can see, because you’d be surprised how similar it is to @Themightykitsune:disqus

    There’s this town in a forest and one day it just started raining; however the rain never stopped. The reason for this was because of climate changes due to pollution in other areas of the region. The rain continued to fall increasingly harder, creating puddles all over the town and creating a lake in the back of the town (due to flooding). Because of the massive amounts of rain, the people were forced to stay inside their homes. Another catch was that the leader of the town (the ghost leader) died due to the flooding (or some other reason) and also haunts the townspeople, keeping them inside.

            Maybe my IP is banned?
            Maybe someone posed as me in chat and you thought it was me. This is so frustrating.

          • Nah, DaDicie is not an account on the banned list. Unless you didd something as an anon, there’s nothing us(PJN) could have done. Either chatango banned you for doing something or something with your internet/browser. Or I guess if someone has the exact same IP as you do which I find highly unlikely.

          • Hmm. I do remember saying some bad words on the chat a few months back as an anon due to me having a bad day, and I think I got banned that way. : I’m an idiot.
            Don’t think there’s anything I can do about that.

          • Alright, hold on. I’m going to sift through to see if your IP matches one on the banned list. I have to do a battle first though.

          • Thank you very much, and I apologize for my behavior that time that led me to get banned. It won’t happen again. I also apologize for the fact that you had to waste an hour just to help me. You’re the best, thanks! 😀

          Reply
          • Perfectly fine with being a girl. Just give me somewhat manly qualities, lol. Not so much a “girly girl.”

          • then that’s where complications come in…
            because earthen is more of a manly man i was leaning towards making the team flora leader more dainty (to be the opposite of earthen)

          • This is not my day, is it?
            Fine. Go right ahead. Make me the annyoing girl that everyone hates, LOL. No, I’m just kidding. I’m fine with it.

    Reply
  59. If anyone who’s working on Jade Jungle is here…
    I have some ideas for towns:
    Lilac City, the new version of Lavender Town. Going to this town triggers an event with a shadow. This person looks like a shadow, and asks you to surrender your Pokemon. You refuse, and he goes over to Team Flora’s hideout. Considering the fact that you are working with Team Flora against Team Eda, the Shadow knows who you are and who you are allies with.

    The Shadow can do one of two things in the game:
    1) Hold Team Flora’s leader hostage, and become the new leader of Team Flora. He uses his Mega Hypno in order to make the remaining scientists of Team Flora become his allies. He then plans to overrule the Zahhre region by defeating everyone.

    2) He, alone, attempts to acquire every single Pokemon in order to create what he codenames “The Ultimate.” With this power, he is able to make everyone and everything under his command, and overrule not only Zahhre, but the entire Pokemon World.

    Sounds a bit dark, but it’s what I have in mind now. Be thankful that I’m still, despite my busy schedule, devoting time to give some ideas for the game, and I’m not just letting you all take the work.

    Reply
      • Team Flora leads with the Purification Legendary though. I don’t think that’s something to defend. I feel like they should be your allies. What makes Team Flora so bad that you need to stop them?

          • xD It’s okay. But one wants to completely dominate the earth with money and factories, while the other wants to make it original.

          • Yeah, and I thought a cool idea would be to have one of your friends go to each side, while you stay neutral.

          • o_0 i thought team eda wanted to rule the world with an iron fist (LITERALLY) by using technology into their own greed and they dont care of their side effects (pollution)

            and both legendaries are a huge consicquence of their goals what they didnt expect

          • yeah i meant by factories and harnessing un-natural energy

            digital is my thing as scientist 😉

          • :O I was thinking, post-game, we could have one guys who plans to take control of the technology legend (if we have one) and create a digital world, so that no one can do anything wrong.

          • 0____0 I LOVE THAT ROLE

            id glad give dicie back his sicentiast tole and take thar

            a technological legend sounds amazing like 0____0

          • 😀 Wouldn’t that be sweet!? He saw the errors of Flora and Eda and wanted to make a world where no one could do anything bad; all futuristic; with the power of the Cyber Dragon Pokémon.

          • hmm now hear me out on this : I thought that this man saw the flaws that team eda and team flora didnt see and now beleives the world should be ruled in an iron fist with digital technology raining through the Zherre Region in order for life to be perfect with no flaws . The only way to succeed in his plan is to awaken the Cyber Dragon legendary and use its power to fuse our world with the digitla world

          • Basically, I was just thinking not fusing but creating, kinda like Team Galactic but not with a different galaxy.

          • hmm cause i was thinking that the cyber dragon was like a link from our world to a digital world and with it, we can make Earth combine or as you say create into a digital world

          • :O if this was a seperate game, he could have made pokemon in cyber pokemon with armor ( like mew twos armor) to inhance their power aka making them 6iv fully ev’d power strong

          • if i may jump in. I think when the team brings the cyber legend to our world the cyber legend sees our world as “unprefect” and trys to control or destroy the world while not on anyones side.

          • i like it! Or it gets a “virus” making (place name) lose control of the pokemon and you have to save the world ONCE AGAIN XD

          • Well, I was thinking a man similar to Colress would summon it and it would either work with him or it would rage out of control and combine worlds, while you would have to hunt it down from wherever it was summoned to a mechanicalized mountain or clocktower and capture/defeat it.

          • His name could be Luke and he became a scientist aft5er seeing the ways of Colress. He wanted to perfect our world, and his calculations said he could control the dragon, but he miscalculated and it became enraged and broke from his grasp, and now he and you calm it. Anyways, I gtg, cya later.

          • Make this a post-game mission. Like the 3rd legendary of the trio. Did someone even make the first 2? Oh the confirmed Pokémon spreadsheet, that is.

          • Hmm i like it

            but maybe to fill in the dont under stand the consequences it gains a virus enraging it and “filler name” loses control of it

          • Luke perhaps? And you would have to track it to Clockwork Tower say and battle it at the top?

          • i say luke is his real name but like he also has another techno name or something :/ I’l definately work on this!

            ALso i love the clockwork tower idea though the name should sound even more cool!

        • Team Flora is trying to destory all manmade creations to bring life to the orignal slate aka mass genocide in a different angle

          Reply
    • hmmmm adding a huge role for such a character seems kinda farfetch’d

      i say that in the beginning he doenst understand the true meaning of what a pokemon is and thinks all they are are slaves or a “shadow” to the trainers however after a couple encounter with you the protagonist and seeing you trying to stop team eda and team flora, he changes himself and could
      A.) sacrifice himself (kinda dark i know) to save you from pollution/ flora legendary

      B.)becomes an aid into help you reach the pollution/flora legend to save the region from destruction

    Description: The User Hit’s the enemy with a beam formed from the users inner Love and affection. 30 % chance to infatuate foe.

    Piercing Bolt
    Power:70
    Type: Electric

        • Wolf could be special as they use mind games to hunt prey, I imagine it creating mirages of itself multiple times to hunt using mind games of the illusions

          Reply
          • Wolves, though hunt in packs wouldn’t be a special attacker
            Everyone knows that Wolves represent Fear and feral Strength so special attacks just wouldn’t be right

          • Well my thoughts is that it creates illusions to create fear while it pretty much attacks from a distance, it uses fear to control it’s opposition into a area where it will attack and kill it’s prey

          • Hmmm twould be appropriate but I don’t want to steal signature moves

            I’m looking at you Dwebble and Crustle!

  74. Contempo Town –> Route 1 –> Meteoris City –> Interlu Town –> Route 2 –> Graystone Town –> Route 3 –> Andante Town –> Route 4 –> Chalcan City –> Route 5 –> Pendulous Town –> Route 6 –> Erosion Island –> Route 7 –> Magnetitis City –> Meteoris City –> Route 1 –> Contempo Town –> Route 8 –> Setback Town –> Route 8 –> Contempo Town –> Route 1 –> Meteoris City –> Route 9 –> Volcore City –> Route 9 –> Magnetitis City –> Route 10 –> Zirhine City –> Route 11 –> Chronose Town –> Route 12 –> Sediment Peak –> Obsidia City –> Route 13 –> Shalerode City –> Route 14 –> Everflow Town –> Route 15 –> Meteoris City –> Pokémon League.

    This is my idea for the names for the cities and towns in the main part of the game. I listed all of the places which are on the main path, and not the places which you access from a route or a city. I also thought of names for each island and peninsula of Zahrre, and for the volcano.

    These are the area names (and what’s in it):

    METAMORPHIC
    PENINSULA- Contempo Town, Meteoris City, Route 1, Route 8, Setback Town,

    IGNEOUS
    ISLAND- Interlu Town, Graystone Town, Andante Town, Chalcan City, Pendulous
    Town, Pokémon League, Routes 2-6,

    SEDIMENTARY
    ISLAND- Magnetitis City, Zirhine City, Chronose Town, Obsidia City, Shalerode
    City, Everflow Town, Routes 10-15, Sediment Peak, Flowback Falls,

    EROSION
    ISLAND- Erosion Island

    HOUR ISLAND-
    Volcore City, Route 9, Temporal Volcano

    SECONDS
    ISLANDS- Triassic Island, Jurassic Island and Cretaceous Island

    MINUTE ARCHIPELAGO- Holocene Island, Pleistocene Island, Pliocene Island, Miocene Island, Oligocene Island, Palaeocene Island, Eocene Island, and Cenozoic Island
    (contains Eternal Town and Infinity City)
    If there’s a comma after it, it means there needs to be more.




    So what do you guys think? I need feedback. Also, the Zahrre region needs more diversity, so we need more areas!

  79. Plot idea:

    A rich family who owns half of the region own a daughter who wants to become a trainer and runs away from home, the father decides to go after her using his forces to take her pokemon away from her. You confront him and try to stop him. Eventually he takes her pokemon away and you have to go retrieve them. Turns out he was trying to stop his daughter from going to far because she is the only one who can awaken the legendary pokemons power(that’s the reason why he didn’t want her to be travelling around) she is kidnapped legendary awakes you have to capture it to calm it and you fight him.
