[Terribly]

[I’m sorry. I thought I deleted the first part, but I apparently didn’t.]

Icarus
“You can take that Elizabeth. Show him why I haven’t had to call the Ghostbusters in years.”[Crunch, which should kill it, because traditional Elite 4 Levels are in the high 60s/low 70s.] My pleasure, she says. Boss. “Yeah Balboa?” Wouldn’t I be a better choice here? He’s going to let his guard down when he sees me, then I pop out a Fire Blast and his jaw hits the floor harder than the collective IQ of everyone when that dumb kid Joshua enters the room “Ha. But you only want to explode right in that smugass ghost’s face.” Maybe.
[Joshua and Icarus have… a history.]

[The whole Poemon League’s been buffed. I personally felt it was lacking in difficulty; thus the buff. As wel as justification for why you just happen to be able to challenge in the order of their srengths. Now I decided that you didn’t bet Brock first because he was the easiest to fight, he was the easiest to fight because you beat him first. Oh, and there are two different way to challenge the Champion; to get into the Hall of Fame, where he helds back a little, and to become the Champion yourself, where he goes full power.]
Icarus
As Elizabeth prepares to chomp down on the opposing Froslass, she is blinded by a glema form the bright, powdery substance that Froslass seems to be covered in. Your heart sinks as you hear Moton command his Froslass to summon a hailstorm to help hide herself as well as buffet your own Pokemon.

[What? Frosslass gets 2 moves in a row and I get nothing? That is shit.]
Icarus
“Okay, you want to play with effects? Fucking try me, Slimer. Elizabeth, get back. I withdraw her and send in Diana.” This is going to hurt, isn’t it. “Just for a little bit, until you can enact Plan Smugass Effectwhore.” Ah. So Sunny day, then what? This is an ice-type, I won’t hit it too hard with Solarbeam. “Shadow Ball.” I am a little less confident in my abilities than you seem to be. “Nah, remember way back when we just started, and we were training in Diglett’s Cave, and every so often you shot a Giga Drain at them?” Luck is a fickle mistress. “Woah, I didn’t know you swung that way.” It was a quote.

[!!]
[It’s taken me a week to compile a post, so I’m just going to one-shot this and work through the abomination it is later.]
[The Poochyena line is part wolf, part hyena. Tom’s never seen a hyena, and would approximate the critter to a dog. Also, they look like grey German-Shepherds.]
[You know, I never asked. What gender is the Poochyena? I don’t want to be giving a male name to a female pokemon.]
[@Nimbus, technically you missed your attack, and then Froslass used Hail. The blinding chance is just a natural part of the pokemon, and you hit that random chance. Maybe “hit” isn’t the best word…]
Tom Vern
“So…how would you feel about being named…?” A raised eyebrow and a snort are the answer. Guess that’s ambivalence. Have to try this again later. One step at a time, after all.
I pull out 2 pokeballs. “Alright, well it’s getting dark. Jilly, Ed, back into the balls. Sleep well.” They zip in, and I turn to the Poochyena. “As for you…tonight will be a trial run. You can stay out of your ball, just as long as you’re not causing trouble.”
I’m met with a series of growls, short barks, and an assortment of other noises, with the Poochyena staring intently at me for an answer.
I have no idea what they meant by all that. “…uh…yes…?”
Apparently a good answer, as the Poochyena sits up and smiles.
…alrighty then. I carry the egg inside, Poochyena trotting ahead of me.

[Really, I should have elaborated on that last string of actions, and I probably will. But I want the egg to not hatch during the night, and I don’t have the energy to write the wall that all of those actions would require for this post. So expect me to edit that long string of actions out and post a new post with actions covering all that.]

[Okay, you can wait until the morning or day or whenever for the egg to hatch, eight posts was more like a miimum. And the Poochyena is a male.]
Icarus
After recalling Elizabeth and calling out Diana, Froslass appears suddenly out of the snow and ice to use Wake-Up Slap, scoring a super effective hit.

Icarus
I wait for Diana to use Sunny day. If she can do that before Frosslass attacks again, cool, if she can’t, use a full restore right away.

Ryan Adams
Ryan walked to the Dewford pier, where his father’s boat was waiting for him. He walked inside, and looked at his dad.
“You’re finally going on your adventure, huh” Ryan grinned, but it had a hint of sadness. Ryan was finally leaving his family and friends to venture into the unknown. Was he ready for this? He looked at Totodile, who was trying to climb onto his seat. His brother had given it to him only two weeks ago, the day before he left.
“Yeah, I’m finally going on an adventure dad.”
“Don’t forget to call” Mr. Adams started up the boat, and Ryan watched as his home slowly but surely shrank away. “Ryan, did you hear me?”
“Yeah, dad, I heard you. I’ll call.” Dewford couldn’t be seen anymore, and the pier they would dock at was coming in sight. Perhaps he should have stayed at Dewford; there was a gym there, so it would have been a perfect training place. But Ryan wanted to go to his hometown only when he could proudly present all 8 badges to his family. He had to take down Brick last. Who he would fight first, he didn’t know; he didn’t have any plan at all. All Ryan knew was his goal; to get all of the badges of Hoenn, like his brother, and to do what his brother couldn’t do; defeat the Hoenn champion.
((This is Mr. Adams Anybody know where the boat usually stops at in the game? I kind of forgot.))

[The Poemon? They’re making Poes fight in Zelda now?]

Aron

I quietly say, “Sorry,” to the other Aron and walk away. I go sit next to my dumpster and look around. Not much to see.

[After leaving Dewford it usually goes to Slateport. Or Mr. Briney’s Cottage.]

[Wat. Just… just… wat. Randome encounters do not resolve that way. You’re supposedto fight, or carry out a longe(er) discussion, possibly making what seemed random plot-important. Or something more exciting.]]
[Oh, and you double posted. There is an edit button next to each post you make, so use that to edit your posts, as double posting isbad netiquette.]

(Well, don’t forget that they’re both Arons. You don’t really expect them to kill each other unless they’ve really pissed each other off. Also, maybe we should have OOC discussion elsewhere?)
Ryan Adams
Slateport. Ryan grinned as he walked on the beach. His father had already left, and he was left alone there. Not that he minded. Totodile ran towards the beach water, and splashed in it for a few minutes. Ryan looked around; were there any trainers here? He had only trained his Totodile against wild Pokemon, and never had a chance to fight in a full on Pokemon battle.
(Edited)

[1. I prefer game thread OOC to be in brackets, parenthesis/sese/however-you-spell-the-last-few-letters to be more for in depth detail/other (fulfilling the same purpose as commas) as seen there, except without a pause. Sort of. It is complicated. 2. Please, please please please please please, put your character’s name in italics, bold, or underlining._ It helps it look better (imo) and provides an eaily visible seperator between pre-IC OOC and the IC, as well as identifying which character you are using if you use multiple characters. 3. (The part that really matters) Unrelated OOC goes in the Sign-ups thread, but a response to a post in the game thread that is OOC can go in the game-thread, due to me beleiving that it is too much trouble to bother with quotes and copy-pastes and thread switches to have to respond to a game-thread partly OOC post with a Sign thread pure OOC post. 4. I never said kill, I was thinking more like a sort of scuff off, or more in depth diplomacy,or character development for the once random npc, or possibly a little romance; something more exciting than a simple apology.]
Ryan Adams
Scanning the horizon, Ryan found a young noy in an inner tube, eager to show off his Pokemon, which happens to be an Azurill. (Typical.) In the form of a battle.

[You misspelled underlining, and also its said as underlined. And also my Arons a shy girl, she’ll avoid fights and talking a lot until she gets a trainer.]

[Underlined is the adjective or past-tense verb, underlinging would be the present tense verb or, as I used it, the noun. Also the misspell was a typo, possibly due to sleep deprivation. And you never statex that it was shy, and I supposed that if you listed the main personality traits under notes then shyness should be listed if it was one of them, imo.]
[Actually, no. I’ll probably think of it again and do it then. Now I’ll just play Pkemon Conquest.]

[It’s funny because you misspelled ‘underlining’ again.]

[Also neither of your grammar with underlines makes sense to me]

[Okay, you know how what you put on a floor is called flooring? Yeah. I think. And I don’t think I get enough sleep.]

[moot point, pay no attention.]
[ @Knoob, make an action post…or just something other than pointing out misspellings that we all understand what he meant. Please.]
[I’d apologize for not posting, but I have close to the majority of posts right now. I’m fairly sure, I can’t be bothered to go count.]
[ @dreams, that’s different. Well, it’s similar, but you’re confusing concepts.]
[ Underline is the present-tense, with underlining being the present-participle, or an action currently being taken. Flooring is indeed a noun, and you can floor something, but those are separate things. Flooring is present-participle (or a noun if referencing what the floor is made of); floor is present-tense (or a noun)]
[English is a weird language, and that’s coming from someone who’s only language is English. There’s a lot of irregulars. A lot.]
Tom Vern
I step up to the counter, egg in hand and Poochyena at my feet. “Uh, excuse me.”
The nurse turns and stops, holding the door to the back room. “Yes?”
“Do you have some spare beds for the night?”.
The nurse smiles and points towards where the phone is. “Mhmm~ They’re in the rooms right around the corner. I hope you don’t mind bunk beds…?”
I smile. “No, those are fine. Thank you.”
“Okay, sleep well!” She walks into the back, and I head towards the bunks.

[Character interaction with NPC’s are to come in next post. Too tired to act as multiple people right now.]

[ @Knoob, make an action post…or just something other than pointing out misspellings that we all understand what he meant. Please.]

[I’m waiting for you, as we agreed]

[And I point out mistakes regardless]

Dreams are you gonna parse my post?
