Rules
1) Be respectful. If your character is rude by nature, that's fine, but keep it IC. I will NOT, however, tolerate negative comments or insults regarding a person's gender, race, religion, or sexual preference. Making comments like that (IC or OOC) is the easiest way to get banned. You're entitled to your opinion, but I expect you to respect someone elses'. Don't say I didn't warn you.
2) I shouldn't have to say this, but no God-modding. This applies to those inside and outside of battle. If you get punched in the face, you will not be unaffected by it. Also, your Pokemon is not going to dodge every single attack the enemy throws at it. You can have it move to the side so that it isn't hit as hard, or something like that, but you're not going to sit there and dodge every attack that is used against it.
3) No spamming. Avoid double-posting (posting in a thread twice in a row) as much as possible, and stay on subject. Also, try to make your RP posts at least 3 lines long. I know that, sometimes, it can't be helped, and that your post will only br one or two lines, but don't make a habit out of it.
4) Be as realistic as possible. I know this is a fantasy world, but there should be at least some level of realism. Your character and your pokemon will not be able to travel for days upon days without food or rest. Try to keep that in mind
5) Try to keep language to a minimum. I don't mind words like 'hell' or 'damn', but try not to go beyond that. It's 99% likely that there will be members who are under 18, and there may be some who are simply offended by it. Same goes with sexuality. Keep it at a PG rating, okay?
6) No posting in the RP area until your profile has been approved. If your profile doesn't say 'Approved' under it, then it hasn't been approved. It's that simple. You're free to post in any of the OOC threads, though.
7) If you wish to make two characters, make them on seperate account. Do not RP both characters on one name. That will only lead to confusion. That also applies to if you decide to stop using a character in favor of making a new one. Do NOT just change your display name and pass it off as a new character. create a new account
8) Your characters are human. That's it. They're regular humans and nothing more. Thet will not have any special powers, except maybe for telekinesis, though you would have to convince me to let you have such an ability. If I'm in a decent enough mood, I might allow Pokemorphs (humans that are basically half pokemon) but you will not have any of their abilities.
9) Have fun. This is meant to be a form of entertainment, so don't take it too seriously (unless rules are being broken), and just have a good time.
