OOC: Let me just point out to you that you can post here any way you want, as long as you signed up. Late joiners welcome! Incase you forgot the story, some storks just flew off with some baby creatures and accidentially dropped them. Now let's start! IC: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [color=blue][i]Four little bags sat in the field in the meadow. It was a clear and beautiful day after the thunderstorm that occured last night. The sky was blue, and there were several small, fluffy clouds around. A perfect day for the newborns. But then, rustling was heard in the bags, and little chatters were also heard. Suddenly, a white figure with catlike ears popped out of one of them...[/i] [u]Nirva:[/u] Ohhh, what a beautiful day! Now, what shall I do today? *looks around* Wow, bouncy thingies! *bounces on one of the sacks* [i]Something wiggles inside the sack. A flower fairy pops out.[/i] [u]Hazel:[/u] Oww, what the... Hey! Stop jumping on me, kitty! [u]Nirva:[/u] Kitty? I'm not a kitty... [u]Kiya:[/u] *yawns* What's all the fuss about... I'm tired... [u]Zaf:[/u] Me too. [u]Hazel:[/u] Me three... [u]Nirva:[/u] How can you all be tired? It's such a beautiful day! [u]Kiya:[/u] Anyone for a game of tag? [u]Hazel:[/u] Sounds good to me! [u]Nirva:[/u] Hey, you there, ummm... [u]Zaf:[/u] Name's Zaf. [u]Nirva:[/u] Zaf. Of course. Wanna play? [u]Zaf:[/u] Mmmmm... okay! You're it! [u]Nirva:[/u] Oh no you don't. Tag! You're it! [u]Kiya:[/u] Oh man... *runs around* [i]While the babies' little game went on, a little bird flew down to catch a worm...[/i] [u]Nirva:[/u] Oh! It's a pretty flying thingy! Wanna play with us? [u]Bird:[/u] Cheep cheep. *whistles* [u]Hazel:[/u] *giggle* Sorry, I don't speak bird. [u]Bird:[/u] Whooo... *sings a song* [u]Nirva:[/u] Ohhhh! Pretty! *dances around* [u]Zaf:[/u] Hey! I can do better than that! *sings* Ooooh yeah baby... *sings a rock-like song* [i]The bird liked Zaf's style. They both jammed together, making enough noise to wake a hibernating bear in the winter.[/i] [u]Kiya:[/u] *covers her ears* Ohhh! So loud! Stop! Stop!! *cries* [u]Hazel:[/u] Waaah... *hides behind a rock* [u]Nirva:[/u] La la la la... I'm not listening... *covers her ears* [u]Zaf:[/u] *singing* Why don't you... huh? *stops singing* Hey, come on! Come have some fun! [u]Kiya:[/u] We would be having fun if you were a little quieter... I'm a little... sensitive to loud noise... [u]Nirva:[/u] Me too. [u]Zaf:[/u] Hmmm... [u]Nirva:[/u] What's wrong? [u]Zaf:[/u] ...While I was sleeping, I had a dream... a dream about... having a parent... Someone who could take care of me, protect me, and actually like me... [u]Nirva:[/u] Don't worry. Just have fun for now! We'll explore the whole wide world and... maybe find some parents like you want to, right? ...right? [u]Zaf:[/u] Umm... maybe... [i]Poor Zaf. Well, he did cheer up five minutes later; that's good. So the babies had fun for a while... What next?[/i][/color]

Lemme guess... ...You got that picture of Zaf from Neopets! Am I right? Cause that pic DEFINITELY looks like a Zafara. Not that you can't RP him. You can. I'm just pointing that out. I love Neopets! And you're in, Lrb! I'm starting this RPG now by the way!

Hmmm... *wonders why there's no poll asking who your favorite Teen Titan is* It's kinda weird that once, I saw the movie Freaky Friday, and when I came home, Teen Titans was on. In that episode, Raven and Starfire switched bodies! What a coincidence! But I liked that episode. It seems that Starfire and Raven are totally opposites, because they sure had a hard time being each other. And I thought the ending was kind of funny... (spelling may be incorrect in quote) [quote][color=blue] [i][u]Raven:[/u] (meditating) Azura, Metreon, Zinphos...[/color] [color=deeppink][u]Starfire:[/u] Hi, Raven! May I join you in meditation?[/color] [color=blue][u]Raven:[/u] Sure... *Starfire joins her*[/color] [u]Both:[/u] Azura, Metreon, Zinphos... [color=blue][u]Raven:[/u] Ummm... Star?[/color] [color=deeppink][u]Starfire:[/u] What?[/color] [color=blue][u]Raven:[/u] After this... can we go to the mall?[/color] [color=deeppink][u]Starfire:[/u] OK![/color][/i] [/quote]

OK, thanks! Ummm... Q: Why didn't May want Treecko or Mudkip as her first Pokemon?

Here's one I made up for fun today... it's about my evil twin. I also have another one; I'm soon putting it in my sig, since I like it so much. (Note: Most of my poems have one stanza consisting of 8 lines where each pair of lines rhymes, but not always...) [color=blue][u]My Evil Twin:[/u] My evil twin was smitten by the monkeys of doom-- Now he wanders the shadows in gloom. He was a perfect little mage, Until he got trapped in his own little cage. It prevented him from using magic, Which is why that fight was oh so tragic. But now he's as good as dead, And well out of my head.[/color] Hee hee! That's it! Stay tuned for more!

Oooohhh... [color=indigo][u]Name:[/u] Rebecca [u]Nicknames:[/u] Boo, Becka, Maia, Rika, Dragonfly, Anime Fan, Alpha (Alpha's the name I like the most) [u]Hair Color:[/u] Brown, with red highlights [u]Eye color:[/u] brown [u]Height:[/u] 5'2" [u]Weight:[/u] 80 pounds (yeah, I'm light...) [u]Wardrobe:[/u] A variety of things in a variety of colors, except for brown and yellow. I usually wear long tight pants or shorter baggy pants, middle or long-sleeved shirts (or blouses), and about five different pairs of shoes [u]Personality:[/u] I seem to have split personalities. Sometimes, I'm energetic, almost to the point where I can't control myself. I also have a short temper. But usually, I'm calm, moody, fairly emotional, mysterious, and slightly sassy. I guess you can say my personality is a little on the dark side, and I usually feel like I'm in a trance and distant to everyone. (think Raven from Teen Titans, except without the "this is pointless" part) [u]Favorite music:[/u] Mostly pop and techno [u]Favorite Bands:[/u] ummm... Sarina Paris, ATC, Aqua, Ace of Base, Eiffel 65, Alice Deejay, Ian Van Dahl, Ayumi Hamasaki... [u]Hobbies:[/u] Singing, dancing, drawing, going on the computer, daydreaming (or meditating), playing music, possibly reading and writing stories, RPG gaming (and creating RPGs), talking to myself (yes, that is a hobby) [u]My personal mascot:[/u] Hypnotica! She's basically a purple cat wearing human clothes and holding a pendulum. She also has psychic powers and is good at hypnotizing and luring anyone into basically anything. I've used her in a RPG here before... *stares at Vicky*[/color] ...A lot of people say I'm weird and/or evil, and I don't blame them, though I'm not evil...

Yay! You two are in! Animangademon, I need your char's abilities, and I need SF's description, and I need a couple more people to join, and then I'll start the RPG! (Isn't it a coincidence that both of you are fairies?)

...Call me Alpha! That's because of the powers I want to have... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [u]ESP:[/u] Well, almost. Or at least good intuition. There are just some things in life that you wouldn't want to read or predict... [u]Telekinesis:[/u] Wow, a lot of people said they wanted that power... I don't blame them... My physical strength is fairly bad, and people tease and pick on me a lot... If only I could just use my mind against all that, instead of that physical stuff... Hey, it would also help move furniture around in the house and stuff. [u]Hypnotic powers:[/u] Sometimes I just wish I could hypnotize bullies into not teasing me or anyone else... And/or I can just embarras them by making them do something stupid like getting naked in front of a thousand people, shouting "I'm stupid" in front of everybody, kiss the president of the US... *On the lunar eclipse we saw on May 15 this year, I actually wished for those above three powers... They seem to be coming... slowly but surely...* [u]Flight/Invisibility:[/u] I might use one of those powers at a time, or combined. This way I could turn invisible and see what's going on in various places and not be seen. Combine that with the other powers and I can sneak into closed buildings, see what the world looks like from above the clouds at night... [u]Healing Powers:[/u] This way, I can heal someone who gets hurt, even emotionally. That would help to cheer someone up and maybe even make a new friend. *I may have healing powers already; I have healed people by singing the songs I wrote before... which is why I sometimes why I call myself a "Siren of Life".* [u]Spellcraft:[/u] This can vary. It would sometimes be cool to magically change a situation or person in life. (OK, I'm not making sense...) Sort of like a variety of hexes (sometimes not bad ones!) that can do things like form an instant trap hole in the ground, set something random on fire, change the weather a little, etc. *Right now, I usually put fake spells on people just to scare them if they're mean to me.* [u]Energy Blasts:[/u] Well, mostly psy blasts, but you know what I mean. This can help if evil aliens from outer space attack or something. [u]Supernatural Vision:[/u] Includes the ability to see dead people, and the ability to look into the past and see exactly what has occured in a certain time period. Sort of like timetraveling, except I'm not actually in that time zone; I'm just viewing it. Going into the future might be a little scary... Well, those are the main ones... It is hard to pick just one...

Hello fellow Pokemon fans! This thread is sorta like Rokas's "Digimon of the Week" thread, but it's about Pokemon. Basically, someone picks a Pokemon, and people can talk about that Pokemon for a week. When the week's over, someone can post a different Pokemon. You can't have the same Pokemon two weeks in a row. This is because I thought it might be fun to just talk about one specific Pokemon for a while. You can say basically anything about the Pokemon of the week, such as its importance in the show, a review of it in the games/trading card game, what you like/dislike about it, and more. For exqample, I'll post the first Pokemon of the Week: [color=red][size=4]Torchic[/color][/size] Yep, Torchic. You know, the Fire-type starter in Ruby/Sapphire, and May's first Pokemon. I play Sapphire and I picked Torchic as a starter, even though it's bad against the first gym. But it paid off... Torchic can evolve into Combusken, a supercool Fire/Fighting-type. I don't know about the other starters, (Mudkip sounds like the one that'll be good against most gym leaders...) but Torchic is my personal favorite, and that's why. Plus, it's cute! Yeah... a karate chicken... basically. [IMG]http://www.rpgamer.com/games/pokemon/pokemongba/art/pokemon3.jpg[/IMG] OK! Let's talk about Torchic! ...Or at least for now.

Welcome, everyone, to my first RPG! (Hopefully, the fact that I'm starting one will keep me online everyday) I was watching Baby Looney Tunes once and thought this RPG might be kinda cute and fun. Here's the story: It all started when one day, a group of mysterious blue storks carrying big bags flew around to find someone to deliver the bags to. But while they were searching, they got caught in a thunderstorm and almost got struck. Even they managed to avoid being hit, they were so startled that they dropped the sacks, which fell to the ground in the middle of nowhere. The storks felt bad already; those sacks had baby creatures in them, and now they're left all alone with no one to take care of them... Now, the question is, can they find parents, and/or can they survive on their own until then? The babies were stuck in the meadow, but who knew what perils awaited them... To ensure their safety, the storks, after they searched for hours to find the babies, gave the babies special powers and abilities; hopefully that will at least give them [i]some[/i] aid in the wild. They also tought them how to talk, so at least they could communicate with each other. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So there it is! Now here's the signup: [b]Name:[/b] Basically you put your name here *You don't have to put your age; everyone knows we're only a few days old!* [b]Species:[/b] You can be anything you want, basically, as long it's a baby. [b]Description:[/b] Here you describe what your character looks like. Or you can post a picture of him/her. [b]Personality:[/b] Basically put what your character's personality, attitude, and other stuff like that are like. [b]Gender:[/b] Is your character male or female? [b]Powers/Abilities:[/b] You can put anything you want, as long as it doesn't make you invincible. You can have no more than five. *You can have the ability to read as one of your abilities; most babies can't read!* [b]Likes:[/b] Put anything your character likes or enjoys doing. [b]Dislikes:[/b] Put anything your character hates or is afraid of. [b]Parent Choice:[/b] Put what kind of parent your character would like to have. (species, personality, etc.) You can also choose to not want any parents. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For example, here's my signup: [color=blue][u]Name:[/u] Nirva [u]Species:[/u] Angel [u]Description:[/u] see pic [u]Personality:[/u] Nirva is very quiet and friendly, and she's good at staying calm. However, sometimes she may wander off for no reason... [u]Gender:[/u] female [u]Powers/Abilities:[/u] light energy blasts, some healing powers, fairly good intuition, fly, read [u]Likes:[/u] staring off into space, watching the clouds [u]Dislikes:[/u] loud noise, afraid of vampires [u]Parent Choice:[/u] A humanoid, especially a fairy or an elf[/color] Well, now you can sign up! Since I don't like really big groups, I'll start the RPG when about 4 or 5 people sign up. Have fun!

I think Tyrogue, Castform, Jirachi, and Sunkern have all stats the same as well... and you were right about Ditto. Magikarp and Smeargle don't have all their stats the same. Smeargle has high Speed, and Magikarp also has higher speed and low Attack. And if I remember correctly, Mew and Celebi have different HP than all other stats... if you call HP a stat.

:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh: ROTFLMAO!!! :rotflmao: Those are soooo funny! Hmmm... let me try... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [u]Pegasus:[/u] I'm going to take over Duke's gaming shop! Hahahahahaha! *laughs menacingly* [u]Joey:[/u] Meeeeow. [u]Marik:[/u] I swear to protect the Pharaoh for all eternity!! [u]Shadi:[/u] Why am I looking through people's minds when I can take over them? [u]Ishizu:[/u] The Winged Dragon of Ra will belong to Kaiba... No wait... Yugi... no, Marik? Joey? Mai? Urrrgh... [u]Duke:[/u] Maybe I should consider becoming a duelist... [u]Kaiba:[/u] Here, Ishizu, here's your God card. *hands Obelisk over* [u]Serenity:[/u] Aaaaah! I completely forgot that Joey made it to the finals! *cries* [u]Strings:[/u] Life is good! *dances around* [u]Arkana:[/u] My love... *kisses Tea* [u]Mokuba:[/u] Grrr... Why the heck did Seto rip up that last Blue Eyes? I want it... *sneaks into Seto's room* [u]Weevil:[/u] Huh? Grrr... Go away, fly! Shoo! Out! Get off me! You... :cussing: [u]Espa Roba:[/u] (during a duel) Hey! You up there! With the funny blue hair! Quit spying on me! [u]Pegasus:[/u] *watches his favorite bunny cartoon show* Oh! Dinner's getting cold! *runs into kitchen* [u]Marik:[/u] Odion, you shall be my next mind slave!!! [u]Kaiba:[/u] (when Marik is about to send Mai to the Shadow Realm) Hey! That's against the rules! You're disqualified, Marik Ishtar!! [u]Keith:[/u] This time, I'll win a duel without cheating!

OOC: Sorry for the delay... Normally I don't do that in RPGs... I've just been very busy at school lately and have been unable to go online for the past week or so... Oh well... Just to let you know I didn't quit. IC: [color=royal blue][size=1][i]Depressed, Dolly walked outside the gym. While she was walking down the street, she was thinking about Sabrina and what happened during her battle with Carmen. What was Carmen up to anyways... But something told Dolly that that was no accident...[i] [u]Dolly:[/u] Go Altaria... *Altaria appears* Altaria, let's fly to Pewter City, shall we? *gets on Altaria* [u]Altaria:[/u] Chiiiii! *flies off* [i]Dolly and Altaria flew to Pewter City, right in front of the gym.[/i] [u]Dolly:[/u] Here we are! Altaria, return! *Altaria goes inside pokeball* *enters gym* Hello? Is anyone here? [u]Brock:[/u] Hey there! *rushes up to Dolly* How can I help you, miss? My, you're looking beautiful today? Hey, are you doing anything tonight? Maybe we can get together and... [u]Dolly:[/u] *pushes Brock away* Get away from me! I came here for a gym battle, not a date! [u]Brock:[/u] Huh? Oh... *shakes his head vigorously* Right. Let's go. *enter the battlefield* [u]Flint:[/u] Hey, we have a challenger, huh? All right! I'll be the referee for this match then! This will be a two-on-two battle with no time limit. Begin! [u]Brock:[/u] Go Golem! *Golem appears* [u]Dolly:[/u] Hmmm... Go Misdreavus! *Misdreavus appears* [u]Brock:[/u] OK, Golem, let's begin with a Tackle attack! [u]Golem:[/u] Gooool! [i]Golem rolls around towards Misdreavus... It's a direct hit! Wait... What's happening... Amazing! Golem passed right through Misdreavus without inflicting any damage at all![/i] [u]Dolly:[/u] Hahahaha! Normal attacks won't work on ghost Pokemon! Go Misdreavus! Use Psywave! [u]Misdreavus:[/u] Misss... [u]Brock:[/u] Quick! Defense Curl! [i]Golem uses Defense Curl... And here comes Misdreavus's Psywave attack! Golem may be good at defense, but will it stand a chance against a psychic attack? Golem appears to be OK... Uh-oh, looks like Golem's feeling a bit dizzy...[/i] [u]Brock:[/u] Hang in there, Golem! [u]Golem:[/u] Gol. [u]Brock:[/u] Good. Now use Rollout! [u]Golem:[/u] Golllllem! [i]And Golem charges right for Misdreavus! Looks like she's in trouble here...[/i] [u]Dolly:[/u] No problem. Use your Psychic attack! [u]Misdreavus:[/u] Misssss! [i]And Misdreavus blocks with a Psychic attack and sends Golem flying! Normally, Golem would be too heavy to pick up, but it's no match for a psychic attack![/i] [u]Brock:[/u] No! Golem! [u]Golem:[/u] Golll... em. *faints* [u]Flint:[/u] Golem is unable to battle! Misdreavus is the winner! [u]Misdreavus:[/u] Missss! [u]Dolly:[/u] All right! You did it! OK, Brock, looks like I'm sticking with my Misdreavus. [u]Brock:[/u] All right, go, Onix! *Onix appears* Onix, use Screech! [u]Onix:[/u] Wrooooooar! [u]Misdreavus:[/u] Misssss... [u]Dolly:[/u] Hey! Quit copying me! Misdreavus, you OK? Good. Use Shadow Ball! [u]Misdreavus:[/u] Misss... [u]Brock:[/u] Use Bide! [u]Onix:[/u] Onnnnnnnn... *absorbs the Shadow Ball and releases it back at Misdreavus* [i]Onix's Bide attack hits Misdreavus head-on![/i] [u]Dolly:[/u] No, Misdreavus! Are you all right? Hmmm... OK, then use Mean Look! [u]Misdreavus:[/u] Misss... *stare* [u]Onix:[/u] Ooon? [u]Brock:[/u] Now what? [u]Dolly:[/u] I'll show you. Now finish it off with Perish Song! [u]Misdreavus:[/u] Misss... dreeeee... dreeeee... misss... Dreeee... vis... dreeeee...eee... [u]Onix:[/u] Ooooonnnn! [u]Brock:[/u] Uh-oh, Onix, use Rock Slide! Hurry! [u]Onix:[/u] Wroooooar! [i]It looks like Misdreavus is in trouble...[/i] [u]Dolly:[/u] Misdreavus, return! *calls back Misdreavus* Go Hypno! *Hypno appears* [u]Brock:[/u] Aack! The Perish Song! Onix, return! [i]What? The laser hits Onix and scatters...[/i] [u]Brock:[/u] Huh? What happened? [u]Dolly:[/u] Hahahahaha! Mean Look prevents your Onix from escaping! Your Onix will be history very soon. Meanwhile... Hypno, hold Onix off with Hypnosis! [u]Hypno:[/u] Hypno... Hypno... Hypno... Hypno... [u]Onix:[/u] Onnnn... oooooon... [u]Brock:[/u] Onix, look away! [u]Onix:[/u] Onnnnn... [i]Onix manages to sort of escape the Hypnosis spell... but he still looks kind of drowsy...[/i] [u]Brock:[/u] Onix, use Rock Throw! [u]Onix:[/u] Onnnnn... [u]Brock:[/u] Onix? Earth to Onix! [i]Uh-oh, it looks like Onix is too drowsy to attack...[/i] [u]Brock:[/u] Snap out of it, Onix! [u]Dolly:[/u] It can't. The only way your Onix can wake up is if my Hypno attacks it. And that won't happen. [u]Brock:[/u] Does that mean your Hypno's just going to sit there and do nothing? Well that's boring... You won't win this battle if you don't attack! [u]Dolly:[/u] Not quite. *smirk* Just wait and see. [i]Onix sits there feeling dizzy, while Hypno just stands there doing nothing. Both trainers wait a few minutes and...[/i] [u]Onix:[/u] ONNNNNN! [u]Brock:[/u] Onix! What's happening? [u]Dolly:[/u] *giggle* Perish Song took its effect. But my Misdreavus wasn't affected because it switched out. [u]Brock:[/u] No! [u]Onix:[/u] Onnn... *faints* [u]Flint:[/u] Onix is unable to battle. Dolly wins the battle! [u]Dolly:[/u] Yay! All right Hypno! We did it! [u]Hypno:[/u] Hypno hypno. [u]Dolly:[/u] Oh that's right, Misdreavus did help too. But you did send Onix into dreamland! And, Brock, this means... [u]Brock:[/u] Yep, you earned it, Dolly. You're really a great trainer, and not to mention a pretty face. [u]Dolly:[/u] *sweatdrop* Ummm... yeah. Uhhh.. Yay! I won a Boulder Badge! Thanks, Brock! [u]Brock:[/u] Anytime. [i]Dolly left the gym and sent out her Altaria again. She hopped on, and they flew up high, almost to the clouds. By this time, the sun was about to set, and the whole sky lookes pretty.[/i] [u]Dolly:[/u] Wow, Altaria, isn't it beautiful? And look! You blend right in! [u]Altaria:[/u] Taaaaaar. *flies above the clouds* [u]Dolly:[/u] Wow... [i]Dolly and Altaria watch the sun set, then they fly off, with the bright full moon shining like a giant firefly.[/i] [u]Dolly:[/u] This is so nice... Well, Altaria, where to next? [u]Altaria:[/u] Aaaaaaa. [u]Dolly:[/u] Yeah, good question. Hey, I heard there's a new gym in Lavender Town. I'm not sure if it's open yet, but let's check it out! [u]Altaria:[/u] Aaaaalll! [i]Hmmm... What new adventures await Dolly in Lavender Town? We'll just have to find out...[/i][/size][/color]

[color=royal blue][size=1][i]Dolly wandered around the house, thinking about a lot of things, especially her career as a gym leader. She thought about her aunt Sabrina and what she heard about her when she was younger. Dolly hoped she wouldn't be at all like her aunt--as much as she liked playing with dolls, she would definitely not want to turn people into them. Nor would she want to control her Pokemon with her psychic powers. How cruel! Ever since Dolly returned home from her Pokemon journey, Sabrina kept convincing her that she was training her Pokemon the wrong way, and that the best way is through psychic power. Dolly kept explaining that she only had one psychic Pokemon, but Sabrina just ignored that fact. Then, just as she was at the peak of frustration with her, something happened... It was a gym battle between Sabrina and a mysterious rival Pokemon trainer for a marshbadge. Sabrina was about 35 years old at this time, but still young enough to be quite an experienced Pokemon trainer. The challenger's name was Carmen, and the battle started. Dolly decided to watch...[/i] [u]Carmen:[/u] Sabrina! I have been looking for you! I have come to ask for a challenge, for a marshbadge! [u]Sabrina:[/u] You are a fool to challenge me. You know you will lose. No Pokemon can compete with my powers and my psychic Pokemon. Just watch and see. [u]Dolly:[/u] This will be a one-on-one battle, with no time limit. Begin! [u]Sabrina:[/u] Go Alakazam. (Alakazam appears.) [u]Carmen:[/u] I'll fight psychic with psychic! Go Hypno! (Hypno appears.) [u]Dolly:[/u] OK, it's Alakazam versus Hypno! Let the battle begin!! [u]Sabrina:[/u] Let's begin with a Psybeam. [i]It's Alakazam's Psybeam attack! Can Hypno withstand it?[/i] [u]Carmen:[/u] Psychic attack! [i]Hypno strikes back with a Psychic attack! Let's see what Alakazam will do.[/i] [u]Sabrina:[/u] Heh. Fool. [i]It looks like Sabrina's using her powers too... Alakazam uses its Psychic attack as well! Who will triumph?[/i] [u]Carmen:[/u] Go Hypno! [u]Sabrina:[/u] ... [i]It's close... it's really close... YES! Alakazam overpowers Hypno and sends him flying![/i] [u]Carmen:[/u] No! Hypno! *That's a really strong Psychic attack...* Can you keep fighting? [i]Dazed, Hypno gets up.[/i] [u]Dolly:[/u] It looks like Hypno's hanging in there! [u]Sabrina:[/u] Time to use Kinesis. [i]And it's an awesome spoon-bending performance! What will Hypno do?[/i] [u]Carmen:[/u] Grrr... *Darn, Kinesis lowers accuracy...* OK Hypno, try... try using Hypnosis! [i]Whoa, bad choice! Hypno uses Hypnosis![/i] [u]Sabrina:[/u] Heh. I knew that would happen. *glow* [i]Alakazam teleports out of the way! Way to go! Wait! What's this...?[/i] [u]Sabrina:[/u] ...What's...happening... [u]Dolly:[/u] Huh? Hypno's hypnosis is still going on? Now why... *gasp* Oh no! [u]Carmen:[/u] Oh yes, Sabrina. I'll show you psychic power. [i]Hypno's eyes glow, and Sabrina immediately faints.[/i] [u]Dolly:[/u] Sabrina! No! (runs over to Sabrina) Are you OK? *Oh no, she's unconcsious...* (looks at Carmen) You're disqualified! Harming the trainer is against the rules! No badge for you, sister. [u]Carmen:[/u] Hmph. *What a wimp. I didn't come here for a badge; I came for the fall of the gym leader! Whahahaha!* [i]Dolly's parents enter.[/i] [u]Mom:[/u] Huh? What happened here? [u]Dad:[/u] Is Sabrina going to be OK? [u]Dolly:[/u] Better get her to a hospital or something... [u]Sabrina:[/u] (in her dreams) Team... Shockwave... Carmen's... in... Team... Shockwave... I... know... it... *blacks out*[/color][/size]

Hmm... [color=deeppink]Taikura stopped thinking about whatever might be watching her and decided to leave the island. But how? She thought for a moment, then had an idea. She fired a light beam at the ground and soared across the sea, not knowing where she would land. Taikura flew over the beach, over the city, over the plains, over the mountains... THUD. She landed on a hut in a small village. She rubbed her head and looked around. Then she saw someone vaguely familiar...[/color] [color=purple]"W...what was that?" Duplicula wondered. Ignoring Kaishin, he ran off toward the source of the crash. He saw a pink bunny wearing a kimono watching him from on top of a hut. Duplicula frowned and started back towards Kaishin. "Stupid bunny," he thought. "Why do I always have to be interrupted or something? Besides, I already got interrupted by Kaishin, a non-Howler. I think he's trying to trick me, so I'm leaving this very instant! I have a world to conquer!" "Hmmm..." Kaishin wondered. "Duplicula sure is taking a long time..."[/color] [color=pink]Taikura sat on the hut, confused. She jumped down to the ground and started walking away from the village, in the opposite direction from where Duplicula went. "So that's Duplicula," she muttered to herself, "a Howler. Hmmm... He's my enemy. And if I'm to destroy him... Hmmm... I'll have to think about that." She stopped for a second, then shrugged and kept walking.[/color]

OOC: Wow, you're lucky Raiha or someone told you to shorten your sig... Yeah, I just wanted to point that out, AF. IC: OK here's my signup... I just had to ask a few questions first.

Well, you said it can be any type... I hope I'm in! *The picture says "Xenamon" on it. (It used to be a Digimon I created. Heh.) So I just changed her name to Xenon for short.

OOC: I probably won't meet up with Kaishin yet; I still have to do Duplicula's intro... IC: [color=purple]"Mikon, Putini, Filibon, Calculoid, Lizardeth, Du..." A dark fairy-witch named Maridra took roll call of her sons, called the Modrod Mafia. "Hey wait... where's Duplicula?" she said, astonished and annoyed. "That's strange... Well, anyays, Photon's here, and I am myself... OK, boys, do your stuff." Duplicula's brothers set off for their evil doings. As they were leaving, Maridra thought, "Now why hasn't Duplicula showed up today? Well, I guess I'll have to find him..." She started off and searched all of La-La Land (that is where Duplicula lives), but after an hour, she gave up. She shrugged and decided to do Duplicula's duties in addition to her own. "When that copycat guy comes back, I'll have to give him a piece of my mind..." she grumbled as she set off towards Wisteria Cave, Duplicula's job location. Meanwhile, Duplicula was stuck in a wormhole and spun around so fast that he felt like he was going to faint. He spun like this for what seemed like an hour, then landed with a thud on a hard surface. It took a long time for Duplicula to recover from the ride. He finally got up and discovered that he was on top of a log cabin in a small town. He laughed and said, "Wow, there are humans around here! Good! Now I can perform my mom's duties and not get in trouble! I just hope she knows I'm here..." Duplicula sat for a moment, wondering whether Maridra had ESP or not. He just shrugged and walked out into the road. Everywhere Duplicula went, people ran around, screaming and shouting things like "It's a monster!" or "Let's get out of here before it zaps us!" Duplicula laughed menacingly, shouting "That's right! Cower at my feet like little puppy dogs!" He stopped short, wondering what dogs were. "Anyways, listen up! You had better do everything I tell you to do, or you will be destroyed! Whahahahaha!!" People screamed and ran for their lives. However, Duplicula caught a glimpse of a shadow running by. He stared in the direction the figure was running and followed. Duplicula found a wad of gum on the ground and picked it up. He examined it, finding out if it was still sticky. Then, he put it into his clamplike hand and closed it shut. He then closed his eyes, and a strange whirring came from his entire body. Soon enough, his cannonlike hand glowed. Duplicula ran in the direction the figure went, and he thought he spotted it. He then shot multiple wads of gum from the cannon, which hit the figure against a wall. The figure could not escape. Duplicula sneered and walked towards the thing he caught. It was Standtall! He scowled and walked away, then copied a gun bullet and fired multiple bullets everywhere, wrecking the village. People fled, but some of them were unfortunate enough to be hit by a bullet and killed. Duplicula laughed evilly while continuing firing bullets. Meanwhile, Kaishin stared at the scene in horror, wondering what he should do. Will he save the village? More importantly, will Standtall live?[/color] OK... maybe I did indirectly meet up with Kaishin... And Standtall.

Hmmm... Now this'll be interesting. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [color=royalblue][size=1][u]Name:[/u] Marina Deonelle [u]Nickname:[/u] Dolly [u]Age:[/u] 16 (darn, she would've been a funnier character if she was younger...)

She was considered an orphan, but that's because her parents were turned into dolls by Sabrina, her aunt, who was still the gym leader. She was 3 when she saw this happen, and she was so horrified that she ran away and lived in the Viridian Forest with the Pokemon for a while. The Pokemon made her happy, except the Psychic-type ones. (She was still afraid because of what Sabrina did to her parents.) But as time went on, she decided to be a Pokemon trainer herself, and her hatred of psychic Pokemon faded. Now she wants to be a gym leader just like Sabrina once was.

OOC: Sorry, I've been offline for a long time... Anyways, here's the deal: Everything I post in pink will be Taikura, and everything in purple will be Duplicula. (I'm probably not gonna post anything about Duplicula now; maybe later...) IC: [color=deeppink]Taikura sat on a rock on the dark side of the moon, wondering where she was. As far as she had remembered, she just recently got sent through a weird portal from another dimension to Earth... Fortunately, she felt she was safe, and that nothing could go wrong. "Well, I guess it's time to take a little hop..." Taikura danced around a little, happy that she was safe at last. Before she had entered the portal, she was being chased by a weird little boy... As Taikura was hopping around jubilantly, she saw an asteroid heading straight for her! Startled, she jumped out of the way. But then, something strange happened: the asteroid stopped in midair, hovering about a foot above the ground. "Wow, that's strange," Taikura thought. She went to touch the massive rock, and it glowed and turned into a flying saucer. Taikura cheered at the sight of this and hopped inside it. Out of excitement, Taikura pulled a random lever on the saucer's control box. Suddenly, the saucer spun around out of control and flew off in an orbit around the moon. After steadying herself, Taikura opened her eyes, but she was unfortunate enough to be looking straight at the sun. As she was closing her eyes tightly, she caught a very brief glimpse of a blue and green planet with white, foggy spots all over it. And shortly after that... THUD. The saucer crashed. Taikura got out and found herself on a small island with lots of hummingbirds on it. Giggling excitedly, she amused herself by chasing after the tiny little birds. She kept thinking, "So this is Earth, huh? Ooh, I just love planets with cute little critters like these on it! I gotta stay here!" Meanwhile, a sinister-looking hummingbird that was over five feet tall hid among the trees and watched the silly little rabbit playing with his kin. He shook his head, looking embarrassed. Not knowing it, he shouted, "STUPID RABBIT!!" At once, Taikura stopped her little game and looked in the direction the shout came from. She rubbed her ears gently, being a little sensitive to loud sounds. The giant hummingbird stared at Taikura, looking confused. He thought to himself, "Urrgh, I made that UFO to lure someone here for a little voodoo performance for my kin... They must be taught how to be vicious and cruel. But it seems that that dumb bunny's happiness tricked those little pests into thinking that it's good to be happy... They must be brainwashed and taught a lesson... But I'll deal with the bunny first. The giant hummingbird emerged from behind a group of trees. Taikura seemed astonished to see him. "So, you decided to give my kin a little love, have you?" he said. Taikura giggled. "Of course, they're so fun! We were just playing a little game of tag when I heard someone shouting... Hmmm... was that you? I'm sorry, I didn't hear what you said... you were shouting too loudly... I'm sensitive to noise, so... "You dumb bunny!" the giant hummingbird shouted. Taikura was confused, wondering why anyone wanted to call her dumb. The gigantic bird grumbled. "You moron! My little pets are being taught to be villains, fierce little spears of war! You cannot mess with that, so you must pay!" Taikura just giggled and clutched her staff. She looked like she was hugging it... "Hee hee! Inferno of light!" Taikura swung the staff at the hummingbird, and a small flare hit him. The big bird was engulfed in bright yellow flame and was burnt to a golden crisp. "Well, it's too bad I'm a vegetarian," Taikura blurted, "because that would make some nice fried chicken!" Then she giggled, shouting "I love this place!" She danced around excitedly, and the little hummingbirds followed. Still, something inside Taikura's mind kept insisting that they were being watched... again...[/color] Yeah yeah, I know, she soes sound a little deranged, right? Oh well, you can get used to it.

OOC: Yeah, maybe I got a little confused because Arika and Destiny were talking to David in one post... didn't realize it was a mike though... OK, let's assume I talked to Christian instead, OK? IC: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [color=sky blue]Euro and the others had left already and were now at home. It was the day after, any they finally decided to get some business done. They decided it was time to find the source of the evil and stop it at once. "But what about our other two sisters?" Chibi wondered. "Hmmm... good point," Izumi replied. "We need to find them first!" Euro shouted. "Who knows what can happen to them if we don't find them soon..." Tina cried. "So, let's go and find them!" Sera declared. And off they went. They searched the town but found nothing. Not a trace of either of the two remaining girls they had to find. They had to hurry up before they began to find the source of the evil... They searched everywhere--even outside the city. Still nothing. Suddenly, Sera got an idea: "Let's go to the stadium!" "The what?" Euro and Tina shouted together. "I think who we're looking for might be in there. You know how she loves to play sports." So it was decided. They spent a few minutes thinking about what their sister's favorite sport could be, then... "We're wasting time!" Izumi declared. "We should be out fighting the evil forces, not wasting our time thinking about some useless sports! We can find Sakura and Rosetta later, so why don't we just move on? I know as much as you do that Sakura does like to play sports, but this is ridiculous!" Sakura and Rosetta were their two remaining sisters. After a long while, the rest of the group decided to go with Izumi's advice. After all, they [i]did[/i] seem to be wasting time. Chibi and Sera lead the way, since they remembered where they were kept captive. Tina and Izumi were still in a trance while they were carried off to their cells and then found themselves in trouble. Euro was not captured at all. The group finally made it! Chibi and Sera, of course, were the first to point it out. It was an enormous building that looked sort of like a flying saucer. The group went inside; it was pitch-black. "I'll lead this time," Sera advised. "You could easily get lost in the dark, but if we just hold hands and stick together, we won't. I'll lead, since I can still see." Sera lead the way through the building, which had a mazelike structure. After about a half hour of wandering, they finally reached a giant room which, they figured, was in the exact center of the building. They went inside; there was even less light in it than before. It was completely quiet in there. The door shut the second the group entered. Then, after a long, frightening silence, the lights suddenly came on, almost blinding Sera due to her sensitivity to bright light. A shadowy figure appeared in the center of the room and whispered, "Ah, I have forseen your arrival... Five of you have escaped my spell. But your other two friends will be trapped in this trance forever! They're forever in my control. You're trapped now. You'll never make it out alive." Tina and the others knew it at once: the shadowy figure was the one who spirited away the whole group (except Euro)! The shadow continued on: "Euro, you have escaped with the love of your fellow sisters, but I caught them all. It's just too bad the remaining two are not with you now, isn't it? Would you like to see them? Well, you will, when you become my pawns!" He laughed evilly, but the group stood their guard. This was it--the final step... They hoped they were ready for this...[/color]

You're the one who stopped Team Rocket from cutting through the mountain, huh? [u]Kelsey:[/u] OK, I'm not exactly psychic or anything... Well, yes, I did stop them, but it was nothing, really... [u]Boy:[/u] Hey! You there! Wanna battle? [u]Kelsey:[/u] Oh. Hey. I heard you got creamed by Kitty. In that case, you'll be no match for me... [u]Boy:[/u] Let's do it. Got a Drowzee, huh? Then I choose... Mightyena!!! [i]A Mightyena appears out of a Pokeball.[/i] [u]Boy:[/u] Mightyena, use your Bite attack! [u]Kelsey:[/u] That won't happen. :smirk: Drowzee, use... wait... Use your Focus Punch. [u]Drowzee:[/u] Drow... *aims the punch* Zee! [i]A direct hit! Mightyena is knocked out... Can it get up?[/i] [u]Boy:[/u] Try a Take Down! [u]Kelsey:[/u] Do it, Drowzee. [i]Hypnosis time! Mightyena falls asleep mid-charge.[/i] [u]Kitty:[/u] And Drowzee wins that one! [u]Boy:[/u] WHAT?!? I can't believe I lost twice in a row! Today is NOT my day!!! [u]Kelsey:[/u] All right, Drowzee. Just a couple more battles and you're ready to evolve. You did great. [u]Drowzee:[/u] Drowwwzee... [u]Kitty:[/u] Not bad. Now how about a battle with me? [u]Kelsey:[/u] I think my Drowzee's had enough for today. I better get it to a Pokemon Center... And my Ralts is still weak from the battle... [u]Kitty:[/u] Well, we'll battle someday. Bye until then! [u]Kelsey:[/u] Bye!! (to Drowzee) Well, we can always go to Pewter City, which is not far from here... Hey that's not a bad idea! And, they have a gym there! Time to win a badge! [i]And so, Kelsey and Drowzee head towards Pewter City, hoping to (finally) win a badge.[/i][/color]

Here's some combos: Bad Reaction to Simochi + Snatch Steal Play Snatch Steal to take control of an opponent's monster, then set Bad Reaction to Simochi. On opponent's next turn, activate it, and opponent will lose 1000 life points every turn rather than gain them. Trap Cards + Jinzo This combo I really like. When your opponent has 5 non-monster cards face-down on the field (they're probably traps), summon Jinzo. That way, the opponent won't be able to activate those traps, and he/she won't be able to play any Magic cards either, since all the spots on his/her side of the field are filled up. That way, the only way the opponent will get past your monsters is by summoning a monster or activating a monster effect. Relinquished + Ring of Magnetism + The Dark Door + Light of Intervention Summon Relinquished and activate its effect. Then attach Ring of Magnetism, which will direct all opponent's attacks at Relinquished. Then summon another monster for attacking. Activate Dark Door, which only allows both players to attack with one monster per turn. Then activate Light of Intervention. Every time an opponent's monster attacks, Relinquished's "defense shield" will be destroyed and opponent will lose life points. And none of the opponent's other monsters will attack, since Dark Door is activated. Then activate Relinquished's effect on the next turn; any monster your opponent plays will be turned face-up. Oh, and you can throw in Gravekeeper's Servant for extra fun.

OOC: This post is going to be kind of short, but it's the best I can do... IC: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [color=sky blue]Euro and the others decided to go home. All the way, they were talking mostly about Sera and the amusement park scene. They began questioning how Sera got on the evil side... "Evil?!?" Ferati replied in confusion. "What are you talking about? I never turned evil!" Chibi and Tina shrugged; they figured she had been hypnotized, just as they almost were by this shadowy figure... As they were walking home, they saw a man carrying a girl. To Euro and the others, she seemed familiar. They followed the man, who eventually started running away, faster than the average human. Sera wanted to use her powers to stop him, but she was too worn out to do so. And, besides, the area was flooded with people. Luckily, after a while, the man leaped on top of a house, taking a break. The people inside the house began to have weird thoughts about what could have fallen on their house. One of them spotted Euro and the others, but Euro did not see him. The man lay the girl down; she was asleep. Then he jumped down and stared evilly at the four girls watching from in front of the house. Not knowing someone was watching from the window, Euro fired a ruby beam at the man, who was not really a man at all. He looked more like... a demon. The boy inside was amazed at this and called a few other people inside the house. Three people walked out the door--two girls and a boy. Chibi immediately spotted them and warned Euro. "It's OK, we're not going to arrest you," the boy said. "Hi, I'm David." "And we're Arika... and Destiny..." Euro and the others introduced themselves and began a long discussion about the people from the other dimension, and mostly, about the evil forces brought here. They were inside the house when someone knocked on the door... Sera answered it. It was the girl the demon carried! She had silvery blue hair, silver eyes, and a white and sky blue dress. She said nothing; all she did was look at Sera in surprise. Sera did the same for the girl. She just managed to mutter, "M...M...Mas..." "Who is it?" Euro interrupted. She got the same surprised look as Sera had. "Euro... Sera... Chibi... Tina... I was wondering when I would finally see you. You all know me, I can see," the girl said. "Well, we don't," David added. "Oh?" said the girl. "My name is..." She was interrupted by someone knocking down the door. It was the demon. He shouted, "MASUKET!!! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE COMING WITH ME!!!" The girl replied "No." Then she turned to Euro. "But just call me Izumi for now... Anyways, what are you doing here?" "I was about to ask you the same thing," Euro replied. "I had a vision of you being tied up the other day... then you were freed..." "That's nonsense. You're not psychic." "Yeah, I know that..." Izumi stared across the room and saw a lot of people there. Arika had gone back to watching TV. Euro shrugged and sat down. Well, at least she found another of her sisters, this time the one she'd seen in her "vision"... the one who was stranded in the middle of the blizzard and survived...[/color] OOC: Izumi's element is Ice, but she's completely vulnerable to extreme heat and weak against fire.

[color=teal][i]Kelsey and Drowzee had left home quite early to finally continue their Pokemon journey after five whole years. Drowzee hatched almost five years ago, and it became her first Pokemon. However, she had turned out to be a terrible trainer; she had no success in catching Pokemon, she sometimes pushed Drowzee too hard in battle, and she could never even get her Pokemon to evolve. Sometimes she got completely selfish and completely ignored Drowzee! She had not even been able to win one badge, and she got so frustrated she eventually decided to give up. However, she did not release Drowzee; its mother was Kelsey's dad's Pokemon. Drowzee was not yet ready to live on its own. But, five years later, she decided to turn over a new leaf and start her journey over again... She left home and headed for the nearest town.[/i] [u]Kelsey:[/u] *looks at the map* Hmmm... This is the only way to the next town, huh? Oh great, all we have to do is go over the mountain... [i]She and Drowzee tried to climb the mountain (there was no route around it), but it was too steep. But then, the mountain seemed to shake... Was it an earthquake? Kelsey panicked slightly, while Drowzee just sat there, apparently bored. A cloud of smoke emerged from in front of the mountain, and when it cleared, a bunch of Diglett were dancing around.[/i] [u]Kelsey:[/u] Hey look! It's a tunnel! Maybe it leads to the other side of the mountain! [i]Kelsey just barely managed to get through the opening of the tunnel, but Drowzee did not fit at all. Disappointed, Kelsey quickly got out of the tunnel, wondering what they should do next. But then she got this weird idea of trying to capture one of the Diglett... Hmmm... Not a bad idea.[/i] [u]Kelsey:[/u] Wow, it'd sure be great to have one of those Diglett around! I bet one of them could dig right through the mountain! You ready, Drowzee? [u]Drowzee:[/u] Zee. [u]Kelsey:[/u] OK then... Use Confusion! [i]Then, someone interrupted her...[/i] [u]???:[/u] HEY! You there? Wanna battle? [u]Kelsey:[/u] Excuse me, mister. I'm trying to capture a Pokemon, OK? [u]???:[/u] Oh, going for that wimpy little Diglett over there, huh? Hello, my name's Daron. And you better not run away, little girl. [u]Kelsey:[/u] Who are you calling little? I accept your challenge! [i]Drowzee appears in front of Kelsey.[/i] [u]Daron:[/u] Oh so that's your Pokemon, huh? Well, then... Go, Machop!!! [u]Kelsey:[/u] :laugh: Is that the best you got? You should know a Fighting-type is no match for a Psychic-type! We'll show you! [u]Daron:[/u] Well, Machop's my only Pokemon... [i]Machop starts out with a Karate Chop, but Drowzee stops it with Confusion.[/i] [u]Daron:[/u] Grrr... OK, Machop, use Focus Energy! [u]Machop:[/u] Chopppp! [u]Daron:[/u] Now, use Seismic Toss! [u]Kelsey:[/u] :smirk: Do it, Drowzee. [i]Just as Machop tried to grab Drowzee, Drowzee stops it with Hypnosis. Within seconds, Machop instantly falls asleep.[/i] [u]Daron:[/u] WAKE UP, MACHOP!!!
