Okay, here you will find the basic rules involving roleplaying, including character creation and stuff like that.
1.) When your character talks use " " quotation marks. When you're character is thinking italicsize it or use ' ' apostrophes. When your Pokemon is talking { } use brackets like that or something else like ~ ~ or - -
2.) As for how many characters you can have, you can have as many as your heart desires. However, if you involve them in a roleplay keep them active. If you're saving a few for different occasions that's fine but if you roleplay with them right away, again, keep them moving.
4.) Don't skip towns, routes, caves, ect. unless they are off to the side. You will be told where you can go at the end of the area you're on so don't worry, just remember that.
5.) We aren't superheros here, which means you can't clone yourself and be more than one place at once. There are some acceptions, which will have "DOES NOT MATTER WHERE YOUR CHARACTER IS" or something to that matter in the description when they are available.
6.) No godmoding or powerplaying, both of these are warnable offenses if you fail to stop after you have been told to.
Powerplaying: When you take control of a character or Pokemon you are not in control of. An example could be if you say that your Squirtle fired a water gun at a wild Poochyena (which is being controled by a mod or admin) and knocks it out immediately. Go write a story if you want to do that as roleplaying isn't for you.
Godmoding: When you make a perfect character, with absolutely no flaws. An example is if your character's twelve and they already beat every League, befriended the legendaries, ect. That's one of the worst cases but you get the picture.
7.) Use out of character when you are not speaking as your character during roleplays. To distinguish you are using out of character use something like these: OoC:, {{ }}, (( )), OhOhSee: You get it? Just make sure if the out of character part of your post is in the beginning of your post to put BiC: or take it out of the brackets to show you're back in character.
8.) No starting out with characters that already have Pokemon. There are some important figures that already have Pokemon, I know, but those are people that are important to the site. Even admins and mods, if you wish to have a trainer already with Pokemon, please clear the Pokemon, levels, everything with me first^^
9.) Please, post at least one 5-7 sentence paragraph per roleplay post. If you post one liners the mods have virtually nothing to go off of. Get creative, what's your character thinking? What's your Pokemon thinking? You can do better than a one liner!
10.) I reserve the right to create new rules if they are needed. If any of the staff, or members, thinks something needs added tell me.
If there are any questions, don't hesitate to PM me^^ As a note, mods cannot roleplay with themselves, they have to get another mod to control wild Pokemon, ect.
