These are the basic rules of the forum. All rules must be followed at all times. Anyone caught breaking the rules will be banned.
Role Play Rules
Literacy:
First and foremost we need to establish the literacy level of this forum. I would like it if everyone here were at least semi-literate to literate. Advanced and advanced++ role players are welcomed and loved.
Language:
Cursing is allowed but please do not over do it. It just looks stupid.
Posting/Tagging/Replying
Call it what you want, but when you reply or post in a thread please keep it detailed. This is a semi-literate environment at the least, so give us something to work off of. Posts should be at least one paragraph long, that's five sentences. No one liners. You have plenty of time to write a decent reply.
Characters
You can have as many characters are you can handle. Be creative! Mary Sues and Gary Stues are not allowed! Your characters can be of any orientation and but they must be human! Pokemorphs are not allowed. You are allowed to ship your characters with canon characters, just make sure they're not already taken by someone else first.
When creating a character, use the form and post your character in the Pending thread. An admin member will check it out and decide if it will be approved or not. If not, they will tell you what to fix.
Once your character has been approved, then you can start to role play and post their intro.
Pokemon
Just like in the games, you are allowed six Pokemon on your team. Though you can have more thanks to the lovely PC storage system! You are allowed two shinies per team but legendaries are not allowed at all.
Battling
During any battles in the role play, please don't dodge every attack! That's considered god moding and it's annoying. Take a hit every now and then. And please don't drag the battles out. There has to be a winner!
Time
You are allowed liquid time. Meaning you can be in more than one thread at once. Just make sure you can keep up with all of them.
General Forum Rules
Language
Cursing is allowed outside of the role play. But do not start fights with foul langauge. Do not start fights at all! Watch what you say outside of the role play. We don't want anyone to be offended.
Be Nice
Don't start trouble. We're all here to be friends and have some fun. If you have an issue with someone, PM an admin member first before taking any further action.
