God, there isn't even two days left until 2016. The prospect of being able to chill with my mons and family at White Forest tomorrow is exciting.

It would also be nice if I could actually get some motherfucking sleep because it's like 20 to 3 in the morning. The one night without fireworks and Sylveon's decided to go apeshit on the motorized chew mouse, tossing it around in the bathtub, slamming it into the walls all over the house and being noisy in general. Really doesn't help that my room's next to the upstairs bathroom.

Anon here who posted this

So far I have 10 of the 18 gyms (and by extension their leaders and the surrounding towns) worked out for the most part. I just need town names and such.

However, that isn't what I need help with. I'm needing help naming the villainous group. To clarify, they were (before the world was remade) just a hodgepodge of former groups who were rallied by some rich assholes who wanted the most powerful pokemon imaginable (only for said pokemon to go crazy and blow up most of the world and shit).

What would be a good name for the group?

Would you kindly all fuck off?

>but it's roleplay

Many forms of roleplay are banned on /tg/, un-structured freeform roleplay at the top of the list.

>but the quest threads

Are examples of structured roleplay and could not be more different from what you are doing here.

>but the dice

You're not even using them.

>but it's traditional games

It is nothing of the kind. It's not a board game, a war game, a card game, it does not follow any discernible rules, it's not even based on a traditional-game related setting, it's based on a fucking video game.

It is in fact definitionally a circlejerk about your favorite video game.

>but we're banned on /vp/

That is nobody's problem but your own. If you feel /vp/ is the right place for it you should make threads on /qa/ or submit feedback, start a conversation with the moderation.

Failing that there are numerous other boards you could take it to such as /b/ or /trash/, if you really think you're "too good" for those boards then you don't really deserve your own thread at all.

To say nothing of the fact that this could easily be relocated to an off-site forum or IRC channel with minimal effort.

tl;dr Fuck off from /tg/

Steel is my favorite type, so maybe a magnemite. If I couldn't pick steel, then I'd pick one of the three bears (teddiursa, cubchoo, or pancham). Aside from that, I have no idea.
>>
>>44461078
Interesting choices in any case.
>>
>>44460141
As I've done for this thing, I might go with Mudkip. Speaking from personal experience the Mudkip line has proved to be suprisingly versatile and sturdy compared to the other Hoenn starters, hell during my runs of the Hoenn games a Marshtomp/Swampert running a moveset with Water, Ground and Ice-type moves managed to prevent me from having trouble with any of the Gym Leaders or Teams, even Wallace, Juan or Team Aqua.

May though...fucking christ she was hard to beat at times because of her Grovyle, even when I threw trained Flying-types at it. I may like the fact that Water/Ground only has two weaknesses in Grass and Freeze-Dry, but man they are some pretty hefty weaknesses.
>>
So I caught myself a Growlithe in the Virbank Complex. Nice Pokémon, fluffy as hell and damn powerful even before you get a Fire Stone. Only problem is, Brand's a playful little shit, and he doesn't seem to get that Sandra (Espurr) might get a bit worried about a fire dog leaping at her, even in play. Worried Espurr tend to get psionically violent. What should I do?
>>
>>44461874
Maybe you should slowly introduce them to each other, periods where both are out and keeping a strong eye out when they interact with each other. If one gets agitated, take it back into its ball before they try to launch an attack. If you keep repeating this, allowing breaks in between, they should eventually grow accustomed to each other's temperaments, and Brand might calm down a little and not try to get Sandra to play with him when she's not in the mood. This is the method I used to introduce my Sylveon to my mother's Meowstic back when they were both in their initial forms.
>>
>>44460115
Probably Piplup, because I've used Empoleon on a competitive team long enough to grow to really love it. That, or possibly Mawile, because I love it's design.
>>
Can anyone give me some advice on a proper exercise routine and diet for ghost types? I caught a phantump a couple days ago, and I'm not totally sure what I should be doing to keep him healthy. I'm trying to let him out of his ball as much as possible, just to let him float around, but I don't know if I should be doing more. He doesn't *seem* hungry, but I don't really know how to tell.
>>
>>44460115
There better have some Porygon and a way to evolve it
>>
>>44462545
Leave out a bowl of Pokemon food every once in a while. Phantump don't need to eat, but some Ghosts still do it for enjoyment.
>>
>>44462608
That's good to know. What about exercise? I know he's a ghost, but I know some of the more solid ones can still benefit from regular walks (floats?)
>>
>>44462643
Ghost exercise?
Taking the Phantump out to explore will do it well, It may begin to entertain itself by pranking you once it grows close enough to you. Although you'll be glad to hear that Phantump aren't as mischievous as other Ghosts. In fact, they're docile for the most part.
>>
Why isn't this on /vp/ or /b/?

You seem to have confused "roleplaying" with "roleplaying games."
>>
>>44461874
The trick I always use is feeding them on each side of a closed door, plus giving them a few treats. That way they associate the others' scent with yummy food.
>>
>>44462680
Sweet, thanks. I'll do that. I'm glad to hear phantumpare usually docile, too. I was worried he might not get along with my staravia, since she can get pretty aggressive with new Pokemon, even though I've had her for years. He and my sandshrew are already getting a feel for each other, but they're still a little wary of one another. Thanks for the help!

Yeah, apparently the board dedicated literally to a roleplay game does not accept roleplay about it, just memes.
>>
>>44462745
See discussion in the previous thread. We're banned in /vp/ for no apparent reason - not even banned, the threads are just automatically pruned by (I think) one mod with nothing better to do. If we go to /b/, we'll just get spammed with furry porn; same with /trash/, so don't try that. /tg/, the board with Mage's Council and quests, seemed like our only haven. If we get kicked off here, then I guess we'll try to talk to the mods, though that probably won't go over well.
>>
>>44463050
Not to mention all of the shitposts about banging mons and pokegirl loli that tarnishes /vp/.
>>
>>44463050
Mage Council also gets kicked from /tg/ (and is at least tangentially related to fantasy games), and this isn't really a quest.

By and large, what you're doing is basically forum roleplay. It's the sort of stuff that belongs on a completely different type of site.

The major issues are that these are the kind of threads that only need about four people to keep them bumped indefinitely, clogging up the board with what basically is just off-topic chatter between a small and not particularly inclusive group of tripfags.

If you already have an Irc chatroom, then the only purpose for this thread is for advertising, and at that point it's rather obnoxious to think that your chatroom deserves some sort of special privileges and exceptions.

/tg/ really isn't the dumping ground for exiled threads, especially if you're only here because it's a slow board and you've made the common mistake of thinking roleplaying games and generic roleplaying are equivalent. This is neither the acting board nor bedroom play board, nor is it the cybersex board or the forum roleplaying board. Board games, paper games, war games, and card games go here, and while it makes sense if you want to discuss the various pokemon tabletop or card games here, it's a little much to try to carve a niche for your chatroom advertising thread.
>>
Some advice for your PTU game. To make it go faster, from the player side, is to just stat the Pokemon. Leave the trainer as the item carrying mule and be done with it.

However, I will warn you that most Pokemon games have a lot of math.
>>
>>44463227
First off, I'm on your side in this. This thread belongs on /vp/. It's where it was born, and it's clearly more Pokémon-related than anything. If we were capable of actually initiating a dialogue with the mods, I would love to talk to them and try to argue them around to our point of view. Especially given that they've let a thread about random Pokegirls in Team Rocket uniforms stay up for days, and regularly allow thinly veiled loli threads to stay, but not us. However, since the mods have evidently decided they hate us for no apparent reason, we've been chased off the board. /tg/ is about roleplaying games, isn't it? Well, we're just roleplaying in a set universe, with very specific rules about how it works. If you know of a way to get in contact with the mods, I'd love to hear it. Until then, we'll stay until the mods decide to chase us off.
>>
>>44463568
>However, since the mods have evidently decided they hate us for no apparent reason,

I think the issue is that this style of thread really doesn't match this site very well. Compared to traditional forum sites, 4chan is rather ephemeral, even with the archive, and active thread space is at a premium.

Forum roleplaying really is better suited for sites like Gaia, with infinite thread length and duration, where other threads don't have to compete just to stay alive.

>/tg/ is about roleplaying games, isn't it?
> Well, we're just roleplaying in a set universe, with very specific rules about how it works.

That's simply having forum roleplaying with rules, but not really making a game out of it. Even Bedroom Roleplaying has rules, what with things like safe words and "don't you dare scream your ex-boyfriend's name."

Really, your plan of hopping from board to board is quite egotistical, since it seems that you think that what ultimately amounts to a Gaia-style chatroom advertisement should be spammed at your leisure. Could you imagine if other people from Gaia acted like you did, making Roleplaying threads on /tg/ about their particular interests, hoping to attract new members to their private clubs?

If you seriously want to continue talking about pokemon being real, my advice is to just go to Gaia, search pokemon is real on whatever roleplaying board they have, and have fun there.

Back on topic: I'm the guy who is designing a PTU campaign. Decided on Team Amalga (sounds badass) and am coming up with the gym leaders and overarching story now. Any tips/tricks?
>>
>>44464184
Please give us a Dark type gym leader. Or, if it isn't too much trouble, how about a gym leader who specializes in a strategy instead of a type? Like a Baton Pass gym leader or something.

I always found it odd that there was nothing like that in the games because battling is more than just types, and exploring strategies would be quite nice.
>>
So what brand of shitposting is this? The quest thread variety? I don't think this even has anything to do with /tg/.

I've been working on a few different gyms. Minimizing spoilers, as I'm pretty sure some of my players are on here (hi, Blake! You probably don't want to read anything past this bit), but I've had a Fighting-type gym based on WWF, and I'm including an Electric-type gym where all battlers can move fairly large floor platforms around and complete circuits to cause damage to those on it. And that's just one of them. If there's interest, I can share a few other ideas (and if there's another game starting, the last game I was a player in died, so I'm short one and have a few characters built.)
>>
>>44460115
For me, I'd say like a Growlithe or an Eevee, for sure.

>>
>>44464623
You don't want an Eevee. Trust me, I tried one. Eevee is stupidly weak until it evolves, at which point it becomes really, really strong. The GM either has to balance all encounters for one Trainer being mostly useless until they get another 'mon, or they let the Eevee evolve early and suddenly it's the most OP thing in the party.

>>44462814
I'm not sure a closed door will stop a Psychic-type...
>>
>>44464954
It was the first Gym. The Pokémon were a Speed-based Mankey, a middling Machop, and a Makuhita with a speed of 1 and an attack of 19. The Makuhita also had Power-Up Punch and gained DR 5 upon using a Fighting-type move. The first one beat him with a tanky Leech Seed/Mega Drain Shroomish, the second by a Froakie with maxed-out speed Evasion and a paralysis trigger off Lick. I'm curious to see what the third will do, probably some bullshit with his Taillow (of course, the Makuhita does know Thunder Punch, so we'll see.)

I'm running a game right now, I have to say pokemon feel REALLY weak at later levels. They don't gain as many stats per level as I'd like and damage becomes slightly less effective with each level (damage base stays the same and you always get 1 hp per level), in contrast low levels can be too lethal if a pokemon gets its hands on a high db move.

>>44467186
I personally like it. It plays more like PMD with trainers than regular Pokémon, assuming you use grids and don't just abstract it, there's a ton of variety in classes and you can make any Pokémon viable with the right feats. I've had two trainers. The first was a Yellow clone with a Farfetch'd starter, never got far with them; first time the game fell apart and eventually stopped, second time the game rules got updated and the main class for my character was removed from the game so I just decided to give up with them.

Currently playing a Zinnia clone now, dragon tamer with special powers and shit, the game's only been a few sessions and they're far between however so I don't have any stories. Has a Noibat for a starter, darkvision is a fun skill for your Pokémon to have.

Higher levels are definitely better than lower levels, low levels are basically rocket tag combat-wise, higher levels let each Pokémon take more blows so they feel more like actual battles.

I've been playing around with restoring super effective damage to game values and rewarding 2 stat points per level up instead of 1. It's not terrible, but a level 100 definitely doesn't feel as powerful as it could.

Dude, I'm not even going to bother with that incomprehensible mess you thought could be cobbled together into a coherent sentence.

You unironically tried to tell someone to stop disliking something you liked, while acting like they were simply telling you to stop liking something they disliked, ignoring every point they brought up in the process.

You're on auto-lose. Anyone that replies to you automatically beats you black and blue in any argument you want to be in.

Allowed, so long as you mean "discussion of an RPG campaign I played".

We call those storytime threads. Though doing them in character would make you look like a massive faggot.

Not allowed. It's quote literally against 4chan's global rules.

That's some rock-solid logic there.

>6: The quality of posts is extremely important to this community. Contributors are encouraged to provide high-quality images and informative comments.

6 is a matter of opinion and 13 is ambiguous in terms of RP. Try harder.

Oh... and another contestant in >>44468318

There's literal furposts everywhere. There's a literal general thread dedicated to the sexualization of one Pokémon. Porn is often posted on said threads without mods giving a fuck.

Wanna know the reason why there's no original content on /tg/ anymore? 1: The content creators have all been scared off by the fun police, 2: People aren't posting in regards to the OP now as they've been scared off.

This is why we can't have nice things, /tg/. This is why /tg/ is dying from Quest Cancer.

>>
I mean, I agree this thread doesn't belong here, but based on the rules that were cited, thus thread isn't actually breaking any of them.

Honestly, just go back to /vp/. You already made a thread there to announce that you were moving here, and it didn't get deleted, even after it turned into a circle jerk of "Oh geez why must you go you guys are awesome just for being willing to move", so I'm guessing you guys could give it another try over there.

>>44468415
>>44468327
>>44468273
No, shut the fuck up you fucking newshit. We've already been over this.

Quest threads may be a benign cancer but they are what's called structured roleplay, which /tg/ and its moderation have agreed is a fundamentally different species of disease than what you're doing here in this thread, which is pure unfiltered wankery over a video game.

There is no structure, no rules, no dice, nothing except chat-room style roleplay and you already have a fucking chat room to do it in.
>>
>>44468469
Really? You think it's the people who encourage each other to respect the rules and each other who are scaring people off?

You're here to break the rules because you don't respect this board, and the "content" you're creating is nothing anyone actually wants, nothing except self-indulgent personal fanfiction.

If anyone is scaring you off, all the better.
>>
>>44468526
What if the roleplay is based on the anime instead of the games?
>>
>>44468526
In the case that you really are retarded Im going to tell you a secret. Pokemon is a setting not just a video game.
>>
>>44468526
Exactly. Just do this in your irc channel. You've said it was meant as a "last resort", but why? Given the way this thread is structured, on a fundemental level, that irc channel should have been your first choice.

You're not discussing the setting (which, incidentally, you have an ENTIRE BOARD TO DO SO ON) you're doing chat room RP, which is not allowed, and trying to justify it by saying there's a card game tangentially related to the setting and that makes the whole thing /tg/-related.

Even your soft teenage brains must be able to sense how many mental backflips you're doing right now.
