Pokémon Site in DevelopmentHere's my quick elevator pitch for a couple of the basics.
BackgroundIt's hard to imagine that only a few short decades ago, the Flora Islands were condemned and devoid of life, where neither Pokémon nor people ventured. Its pebbled shores and thick wilderness carried traces of ancient civilization, but the dark reputation of the isles warded off even the boldest adventurers and explorers who might uncover their lost secrets. That was until a coalition of the world's greatest minds, trainers, and entrepreneurs gathered to transform these islands into a true paradise. Twenty years later, the Flora Islands are sacred ground for trainers, travelers, breeders, rangers, professors and idols and collectors and so many more, praised and lauded as the greatest site of Pokémon biodiversity in the world. Its central hub of Eden City is one of the most advanced cities ever seen, brimming with people from all walks of life.
Regional AcademyThe Flora Academy, one of the most prestigious and largest in the world, home to thousands of trainers, both strong and weak.
Regional ChallengeMasters, some of the greatest trainers ever to walk on this earth, make their home here, part of the original coalition that brought life back to the Flora Islands. This isn't your typical league challenge, consisting of just eight paltry gyms. Instead, there are eighteen specialists, masters of their chosen type, who stand between you and Flora's champion. Only the strongest can push through.
Criminal Undercurrent???We're not supposed to ask questions, but is there something wrong here?
Diary: July 5
A new Pokémon was discovered deep in the jungle.
In short- set in an archipelago of islands, giving the RP scope and depth. Everything from an abandoned theme park to hot springs to wilderness teeming with Pokémon, all centralized around a city teeming with life and excitement.
- tackle the challenge to become the Flora Champion! Defeat the Masters and take up the mantle of the strongest trainer on the Islands, and defend your title from all challengers.
- home to more than just battlers. RP as characters from all walks of life, from breeders to professors, young children or schoolgirls or old men, whoever you can dream of.
- no more grinding. Leveling is abolished and replaced with a streamlined tier system to eliminate the need for tedious training, and preventing older users from becoming oppressively strong.
- crime is common. Members will be able to create their own criminal syndicates and battle for territory and resources, or join the crime family that operates Team Sable. The Flora Islands special police force, the Rangers, are also eager for your recruitment!
- an overarching plot concerning conspiracy and the mystery behind the original inhabitants of the islands, as well as something much bigger...
- many exciting site events in store.
- a lot more that I'm forgetting. There's a ton, srsly. This is just skimming some of the features to give you more of an idea of what I'm planning.
- clean, polished, and regulated site (e.g. a Bin Request thread and possibly a wiki).
