...the fuck is that? Did Magmar get crossbred with a clown?

>>9215139

That, my friend, is a Magmortar.

And it is indeed as useless as it looks.

>>9215139

Newest game. I don't like the design, but the name is pretty awesome. Magmortar.

>>9215139
>>9215157
Not near as awesome as this motherfucker right here.

>>9215157
Fuck you talking about useless, bitch? Magmortar is the fuckin' boss nigga.

>>9215139

Magmortar, he's got fucking flamethrowers for hands and that's badass.

>>9215157

Magmortar isn't useless.

To answer your question, Pokemon Tabletop Adventures is a game based on the D20 system designed by one Dr. Mr. Stark. The "alpha" rules are available on 1d4chan, but they're incredibly incomplete. The beta ruleset will likely be released sometime late this summer.

Am I the only one who thinks Pokemon is a rather dull world to set an RPG in?

That and Fallout. Yet those are the two most popular settings for PnP games these days.

>>9215174
True, but that's really only because Electivire isn't weak to Stealth Rock.

>>9215228
I agree, at least when you're playing as a human. I think, though, that if you were to play as a Pokemon, there could be some more potential...

>>9215228
>Fallout
>dull setting

You best be joking

>>9215228

Well, I think that Pokemon has a lot of potential regarding tabletop RPGs. I do agree with you on Fallout, though, given that it's just a fairly standard post-apocalyptic setting. It's the gameplay and design that sets it apart from the rest of the pack, which likely couldn't be replicated in a tabletop setting.

>People not understanding Fallout

Look, I know Fallout is a favorite trollin' target due to its rabid fanbase, but let's get something straight here.

Fallout is a very specific thing, and not "just the standard post-apocalyptic setting;" it is a fusion of both the strongest hopes and fears of the 1950s, as if both their dream of a technologically liberated future AND their fear of a mutant-infested atomic wasteland both happened.

>>9215256

Nah, even playing Pokemon sounds really dull. Only four attacks, no real reason for different pokemon to work together (unless you want a Mystery Dungeon game, but then it isn't really Pokemon), and no threats.

Dull.

>>9215355

Exactly. Fairly standard post-apocalyptic setting. Look, I really like the games and I think they're very well done, but it's still fairly cliched. There's nothing really wrong with that, though. Just because it's been done doesn't mean that it's bad.

>>9215355
I agree. I'm not a big Fallout fan, but that's because it's style and tone aren't really what I want out of a post-apocalyptic setting. That doesn't make it a generic, boring setting.

>>9215407

Apparently Australia and Japan are still up.

>>9215376

Mystery Dungeon Pokemon > Pokemon

>>9215397
It isn't cliched. It's the quintessential post-apocalyptic game.

There is a difference. You probably don't understand but that doesn't matter.

>>9215397
>post-apocalyptic retro-futurism
>cliched

>>9215397
>Fairly standard post-apocalyptic setting.
I'm very curious how you define standard post-apocalyptic setting. Humor me, without mentioning Fallout.

>>9215427

Mystery Dungeon is Nethack for children with better graphics. Also Pokemon.

And Nethack might be duller than regular Pokemon, so yeah.

>>9215167
the intro animation is pretty fucking sweet too.

>>9215376
>>9215256
if you've read the special manga, that's what the tabletop is based on. you get more than four moves, and you are a trainer. your abilities as a trainer as as easily as important as your pokemon.

>>9215533
How does that work?

>>9215567
In tabletop there are two primary conflicts, Official battles, (duels, gyms, contests, etc.) the standard game rules mostly applies to these. trainers can only give command abilities to pokemon. Ace trainer/researcher/coordinator excel in this field. This is also your primary way of leveling up and earning funds.

Then there is unofficial fights, (streetfights, vs. rockets, wild encounters) this is an anything goes beat down. trainers can attack and will be attacked. this is where martial artist and psychic excel. Death is also a possibly in these fights and the primary storyline fights are these.

Pokemon: Tactics would be better IMO. Do it like Necromunda/Mordheim. With Pokemon.

>>9215716
effectively the street fights are tactics battles in tabletop.

>>9215704
And how do gym battles work? Or other official battles, that'll probably be one-on-one?

>>9215167
I would love the design if they dropped the fucking lips

>>9215769

You aren't supposed to actually like Magikarp. That's the joke.

Also, depending on how you play Pokemon's setting, it could probably work out. If you want to have a mindless silly game the game's setting works just fine, but if your LOLGRIMDARK, then the Pokemon mangas work out just fine. If I recall right, there is a chapter in the manga in which a giant Haunter kills Pokemon and Humans alike.

>>9215769
magmar line always had some dumb lips.

>>9215754
standard one-on-one, similar to the game. Usually special rules will be stated beforehand

>>9215801
Are you talking about Magmortar or Magikarp?
Because if it's the latter your rambling is extra useless

>>9215728
Pretty much. I found "I choose you" was rather eh. Now, having "All 6 pokemon vs all 6 pokemon" with terrain and gym conditions taken into account...

>>9215801
I admit that I prefer the game's setting; it doesn't make sense for Pokemon to be that easily killed. Or at least trained Pokemon; perhaps Poke Balls have some sort of ability to keep their occupants safe from mortal harm?

>>9215829
it's still going to be one pokemon out unless you are a tag battler or go for a very hard but useful set of features. remember you have other players and their pokemon, it'll be crowded as is.

>>9215899
death is a possibility but still difficult, you must be reduced to -100% HP to risk death.

>>9215824

I suck at thinking right now.

>>9215899

I think it's mostly that the Haunter was stupidly powerful, but because it was wild it hadn't evolved yet. There's another page in the Manga where they kill an Arbok that a Rocket member uses to try to kill them, they fight zombie Pokemon, and like I mentioned earlier, Ghost Pokemon kill people.

The Manga is pretty fucked up.

>>9216009
I think the manga's taken rather too much license, personally. Although battles between wild Pokemon could turn out lethal.

>>9216062
The creator has said that the manga is the version that most closely depicts the world he had in mind.

>>9216062

It's actually been toned down considerably, all of the stuff I mentioned was in the first few chapters. Other than a few of the major characters being goddamn petrified, the manga has pretty much been a readable version of the games.

>>9216086
Satoshi Tajiri? Impressive. But how much of a hand has he had in creating the modern Pokemon world?

>>9216062
>Pokémon creator Satoshi Tajiri is quoted as stating, "This is the comic that most resembles the world I was trying to convey." Game producer Tsunekaz Ishihara also praises the series, saying, "I want every Pokémon fan to read this comic!"

I think the games and show don't do the comic justice. The comic has many lighthearted moments, but enough serious moments to make it a believable world.

Dragon type here, all other types are fags.

>>9216367
Very possible.

>>9215704
I say both fights a psychic would excel in, if he can read his opponent's mind he knows his next move. Therefore he can counter it, before the opponent could react.

>>9216615
This makes me wonder; can a trainer absorb Dark traits, to block psychic powers?

>>9216367
Normal type was here. Just being the underestimated true best type. Granted it requires ghost (or otherwise fighting resistant pokemon) backup to truly be awesome, but still
>>9216615
Or just take the guys belt full of pokeballs with your mind or something if you REALLY want to fuck with him

>>9216367

How many Dragon types aren't 4x ice vulnerable? Only evo I can think of is Kingdra.

>>9216615
if you are caught, or the rules don't consider that cheating then yes, one of the subclasses, influential could also mess with the other party's heads causing them to fumble or hallucinate a different action. also most psychic powers burn Hp
>>9216664
no, trainers don't have elements.

>>9216615

Psychics are pretty awesome, yeah.

In the beta, they've got a lot of cool stuff. Vanilla Psychics can even go as far as to mess with Probability, and some of the advanced classes can control the elements, control minds, and heal things by thinking hard at them.

Somehow, that's still balanced with the other classes.

>>9216694
all of the non-legendaries. Still, Haters gonna Hate.
>>9216683
Normal types are bros too.

>>9216694
Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, the Lati pair.

But otherwise? Yep.

>>9216694
I think that's it aside from legendary pokemon.
And considering Kingdra isn't TOO threatening and there's a ice-based quick attack dragons really aren't the scariest shit these days. They can still be a problem though

>>9216754
you eat HP for your powers, and generally your powers are banned in official battles, making you and martial artist the two weakest levelers. (still my favorite two classes though)

>>9216774
Honestly? Dragon is just "alright" as a defensive type. It's neutral to a lot and doesn't resist much, which is WAY worse than resisting more but being weak to more with how offensive the metagame is.

Plus, none of its resistances are really big aside from water, and any poke packing a water move will probably have something of another type that covers at least a neutral.

Offensively, though? Shit's amazing.

>>9216786
Most of the powers are banned. I played a psychic in a game with the empath advanced class, and the ability to give orders to you pokemon without yelling them for you opponent to hear is invaluable and not against any regulation.

I was talking to a friend about a Pokemon Tabletop game where people played as pokemon. I'd set up the whole thing just to pull off one joke.

GM: "As you walk through the Dancing Forest, you realize something. All of the trees are shaking, but there's no wind!"

Noctowl Player: "Well, as long as we don't get them wet, we're fine."

*Lightning sound effect, followed by rain,*

Players: "Oh shit, RUN!"

>>9216805
the value of a dragon pokemon is it's high stat values, and access to one of the best STABs in the game, but with everyone flinging choice items and steel type's continued domination dragon is not as overpowering as it once was.

>>9216937
an interesting use of a class i had not thought much of. will have to reconsider how i thought of empath now.

>>9216954
That's up to the poke itself, not the type as a whole (though there are really no outliers there). I'd like to see a dragon with lower-end stats, an alright movepool and a really unique typing, along with more dragons as a whole, but that's just me loving UU and NU, and especially the ability to make type-based theme teams.

>>9216728
Don't know how you'd get caught unless you do some flashy moves. I mean the anime had Sabrina turning her opponents into dolls.

>>9216997
Empath worked great for me, especially because my starter was a pidgey. By the time I got empath, I had put sunny day and rain dance on my now fully evolved pidgeot, and could use the remote viewing aspect to have him set up the field before we even got there.

Pokemon = Glorified Cock-Fighting

I'm wondering why the ESRB hasn't jumped all over that yet...

>>9215376
In PTA you get seven+ attacks per pokemon.

>>9217106
The anime is hardly cannon, and psychics can sense when psychic shit is going down, even if they're not involved, so there's always the risk of being caught.

>>9217079
Altaria says hello. At least if you're looking for a mediocre dragon (although that's kind of a contradiction in terms).

>>9217136
I think it's because A: no one dies, B: the Pokemon enjoy it, C: the only people seen abusing them are explicitly evil, D: the Pokemon certainly seem intelligent enough to consent, E: The Pokemon are way stronger than the humans, and could probably squash them with little trouble if they felt like rebelling.

>>9217164
But you can't build a theme team around Altaria's types unless it's flying or full of pre-evolved ones, and Flying is a pretty big risk.

>>9217106
There's a whole class based on detecting other psychics and psychic activity.

All the GM needs to do is put a few Psychic detectives in the crowd and your ass is disqualified.

>>9217119
most excellent, clairsentient has a similar viewing ability, I was thinking of using an influential or fire-breather to create the illusion that i was doing one action, while in all reality doing something different.
>>9217106
psychic residue, the little leagues you could get away with, but it's off to the slam if you try it in something major or the GM says, "fuck you".

>>9217189
fucking hate me some stealth rock, single biggest rage moment ever in a battle.

>>9215376
in the tabletop its 8 moves.

>>9217292
im pretty sure it's 7 egg learned moves and seven TM-move tutor moves going by the elite four stats

>>9217292

14.

7 Learned moves, and 7 from TMs/HMs.

>>9217347
ah, nevermind. Last i had heard it was 4 Natural moves, and 4 TM's.

So... let the summoning ritual begin.

I HEARD STARK STOPPED WORKING ON IT!

Now we just sit back and wait...

>>9217441
I say we don't pester him until we actually need him.
ah well screw it.

MAN, I HEARD /TG/ PISSED OFF MR. STARK SO BAD HE QUIT THE POKEMON PROJECT

>>9217441
Well, its worked every othertime. I guess.

sooooo, where would we find these beta rules?

Screw dragon. Real trainers build teams with crap types.

Speaking of which, I need to get to breeding Focus Punch on this motherfucker right here.

>>9217523
http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Pokemon_Tabletop_Adventures

>>9217441
>>9217484
YEAH HE GAVE UP POKEMON FOREVER BECAUSE GAMEFREAK DECIDED TO RETCONED WAILORD OUT OF GEN V, SO NOW THERE IS NOTHING TO HAVE SEX WITH HIS SKITTY.

>Focus Punch
>not Cross Chop

RivetingTaleChap.jpg

>>9216754
Most of that shit is illegal, or only situationally useful, or both. Regardless, they're for less pokemon-oriented trainers. for powering up your pokemon, Ace Trainer is god tier. And pokemon are kind of what the game's about.

>>9217523
dragonfag here, poison's cool. A lot of good and overlooked pokemon, like nidoking or weezing are poison.

shit i guess im not really a dragonfag if i like every type but ice, dark, and grass

>>9217523
Beta isn't out yet, only alpha.
ALSO, IT WILL NEVER BE OUT BECAUSE STARK THINKS POKEMON IS FOR MANCHILDREN AND QUIT.

>>9217547
I'm having a hard time visualizing that.

>>9217540

Those are the alpha ones, mainly. Beta's getting there, and is expected to release late spring or sometime this summer.

As it's pretty much just needing to have the .pdf finished, and I'm the one doing that, I personally anticipate a slightly faster release than that.

>>9217589
Psychic here. Ghosts are p. cool too.

>>9217589
You don't like Ice? What is wrong with you.

I'd call my least favorite Dark as well, though. Steel is the best.

>>9217573
Substitute says what

>>9217619
I heard fluff was still needed as well, how's that coming?

>>9217523
Bitches don't know about my QUAGSIRE.

>>9217619
axiom i saw your earlier pdf, and i gotta say it was well done, keep up the good work

>>9217547
WOAH WOAH WOAH!
WOAH!
Woah... woah.

Don't joke about that shit. Wailord is god tier to stark.

>>9217611
they are in the same egg group.
yes, think about that

>>9217636

Not bad at all. I'm at about 300 pages on the Trainer's Guide right now, with about another 30-50 to go before content's wrapped up.

There's a pretty basic amount of fluff still, but all the abilities and moves have been fluffed out, and the classes all have a fair bit about them.

It'll need a bit more, and I'm going to write up the rules in a bit more cohesive manner, but it's coming along pretty well.

>>9217666
>666

Are you implying that Skitty is a size queen, Satan?

>>9217645

Thank you.

Beta release will also have a GM's guide and a better (and this time, pdf) Bestiary.

>>9217681
If you could use help hammering out cohesive fluff from concepts, for any particular segment, I'm good at that.

>>9217636
I'm the one doing fluff. I'm up to krabby, however my computer crapped out, so it may be a while. I could use the public library which is litteraly right next door, but they have a 1 hour a day time limit on the public computers.

>>9217629
>You don't like Ice?
yeah, i just don't like how every other pokemon has ice fang/beam/punch or a dark attack as a filler move. plus having your favorite three types being fighting dragon and flying doesn't lend itself to liking the type.

plus everyone likes ice. Although Weavile consists of my two least favorite types on one of my favorite pokemon.

Using a set of the rules Dr. Mr. Stark uploaded, I started to build a Kamen Rider themed trainer, under the assumption that one would get a mount pokemon and a Heracross.

Martial Artist(For Jump Kick, Karate Chop, and all the endurance and strength bonuses a rider needs)/Ranger(For the boosts to CHA, for the gadget-based buffoonery of a Heisei Rider, and as a prere for the actual "Rider" advanced class)/Rider (For, well, riding. Taking Land mount is a must, and Sea and Air mount are also options. Wish there was a motorcycle pokemon available but whatever)

Also, crank up his CHA with the appropriate feats for heated speeches and take the feat where he doesn't need to grab a pokemon with he Styler before giving them orders.

Ranger Companion: A Heracross, named either "Nigo" or "Stronger" depending on my mood.

Any other suggestions on the build?

>>9217724
That was me. My DSi keeps dropping my name.

>>9217743
i like the cut of your jib, mate.
try the let me help you with that feature (generic) for inspiring moments.

>>9217743
can't rotom possess shit? rotomcycle?

>>9217815
This idea is awesome.

>>9217640
Vileplume says SOUP QUAGSIRE.

>>9217800
>Let me help you with that.

Excellent idea.

>>9217743

Rider's a bit more focused on riding Pokemon.

Cyborg + Riding things? I'd consider going Capture Specialist -> Engineer - they get a mechanical arm, the ability to make and design vehicles, plus cool attacks based around their mechanical limb.

>>9217743
You need a Heracross AND a Pinsir.

Maybe a Scizor.

>>9217815
:D YES!

>>9217832
Rotom trash compactor.

>>9217573

Focus Punch
+ Substitute
+ Sucker Punch
____________________
Trollface.jpg

>>9217862
But unrestricted Riding sounds like something that would fit for a Rider. Plus ROTOMCYCLE.

As a reminder, what's the amount of classes and Advanced classes one can have? Isn't it three normal classes and One Advanced class?

>>9217862
Thats the point. he wants to ride a heracross, and inspire pokemon to fight for him with out a pokeball.

>>9217935

Three classes total. That can be one basic class and two advanced, 2 basic and an advanced, or three basic. Whatever you want to do.

Personally, I'm hoping to make Iron Chef: Kanto.

>>9217935
three total, three main, two main and a sub, or one main and two sub

>>9217923
Hariyama is god tier for that kind of set-up. Focus Punch/Substitute/Payback/Ice Punch = IMMOVABLE OBJECT.

>>9217935
Three classes. period.

So 1 class + 2 advanced
2 classes + 1 advanced
Or 3 classes.

>>9217937
I was thinking the Heracross would just be the Rider Nigo to his Rider Ichigo, but I think there IS a rider skill that lets you ride on anything of a sufficient size. Still, GM willing ROTOMCYCLE sounds like the winner.

Plus, with how much STR I ended up nabbing through Martial Artist skill, he doesn't really need any help from mechanical limbs.

so i'm thinking ace trainer/martial artist, as a hot-blooded I MUST BE THE STRONGEST type of character but what should my subclass be?

>>9217984
Alright. sweet.

>>9218033
Also, as soon as I get one, that Heracross is getting a Choice Scarf. Just saying.

>>9218053
Strongest at Pokemon training or Martial arts?

>>9218053
Gym battler.

>>9218120
BOTH!
actually in not sure, i was thinking type ace (dragon or fighting) speed ace, tag battler or one of the martial artist subjobs, (ninja brings an interesting moveset to the mix, and i love me some parkour)

>>9216949
HOLY FUCK.
I wanna do that now.

>>9218192
I like ninja for its AUTO-SUCCESS at hide checks. It makes you the INVISIBLE POKEMON MASTER.

Pokémon: Tabletop Adventures is a crapfest of epic proportions. I couldn't believe that anyone besides a 9-year-old (with no sense of game balance) could fuck up Pokémon so badly.

>>9218200
This basically happened in Pokemon Special, but with Executor.

>>9218239
cool troll bro

>>9217815
Would it be fair to say a motorcycle would be analogous to a "Fire type" form? It would be simpler to just take Rotom's Heat form, add mount capabilities, jack up the overland speed, and call it "Cycle form."

Or, if the GM doesn't like adding all those pluses AND a unique move, I could just tell him to keep the move and give the jacked up overland and mount capabilities instead.

Ace Trainer/Type Ace(Ghost)/Psychic. That's the build for me. Gonna get a Haunter and refuse to evolve it. I dunno about you guys, but I find Haunters way more terrifying than Gengars.

>>9218310
steel type maybe?

So, I was thinking about making Team Rocket well intentioned extremists in my campaign.

They started selling slowpoketail, which is apperently the best food ever, and doesn't require you to actually kill a pokemon. Plus, the tails grow back. They found a food source that didn't require you to kill pokemon.

Also, they all use koffings and zubats. Koffings are hated because they are freaks of nature that only show up at chemical plants, and zubats are slaughtered by the THOUSANDS by children. They are protecting these pokemon, and giving them a place in the world.

They bring in criminals and make sure that they don't have any powerful pokemon, ensuring that they can't cause to much trouble.

In fact, if you read the manga, the ENTIRE REASON TEAM ROCKET EXISTS is as a continent spanning search party looking for Giovannis son, who was kidnapped.

Team rocket are the good guys.

>>9218225
ninja it is then
>>9218310
sounds reasonable to me
>>9218335
haunter just looked cooler, and had a cooler name.

>>9218280
To get the game to a playable state most of the bullshit faggotry that was added to the fluff had to be removed and we had to set the game in Britain. Which is, of course, pretty kickass, but nonetheless every time the narrative is interrupted by the godawful rules we are reminded that this is an absolute failure of a system.

>>9218405
Pic Related.

>>9218443
Also, our badguys are Team Gentlemen, which is also kickass, but that can in no way be attributed to the system itself, which is analagous to being raped by several horses whose penises are poisonous snakes and the poison is FIRE.

Capture specialist/Ball designer/Engineer

Did I just build the snagm machine? Yes I fucking did.

>>9218405
also, they seek to bring the strongest pokemon under control, for general stability and safety. I see them as a "Humans first, pokemon second" group. maybe not good guys, but certainly not evil in my book.

>>9218405
>the ENTIRE REASON TEAM ROCKET EXISTS is as a continent spanning search party looking for Giovannis son

I remember when I told a friend of mine that. The general quote from his was, in a pleading tone, "Goddamnit Japan, why can't you make a stereotypical two-dimensional villain that doesn't have decent justifications for his actions?!"

While I was reading it myself, I actually sat back in my chair and had a 'wow, that's cool, I can relate to that' moment.

>>9218500
>>9218335
Other than Poke-Rider (Which I probably wouldn't play without a TON of GM permission) I'd probably try to build a Breeder/Capture Specialist. As for my advanced class, Probably either ball designer, or Collector, or maybe Evolver.

Pretty much I'd be going through the game trying to fill as many pages of my pokedex as possible.

>>9218479

>>9218479

Move tutor is probably the most hilarious breeder advanced class, as it allows such dickery as flying Gyarados, surfing Fearow, and Blastoise with solar beam.

>>9218700
>Surfing Pikachu
>Flying pikachu

>>9218700
Yeah, for some reason I'm not so crazy about that part...

>>9218541
They seem to be the only ones who are studying how to control pokemon, what with the evolution signal and all. Heck the only even remotely evil thing i remember them doing was hijacking the radio station. And even that was just a last resort to find Giovanni.

And on the subject of pokemon they help. Voltorb. It is implied they are animated pokeballs, they spend most of their time just sitting in a corner hoping to be left alone, and then trainers start poking them and try to rip them open to see whats inside.

Team Rocket? They let the voltorb be left alone just sitting in a corner, and on top of that, can produce clean and efficient enegy by doing so.

>>9218700

Gyarados should already be able to fly. As each new generation comes, I always hope for the announcement that "Gyarados can now use Fly, as he always should have."

>>9218761

Yeah. In the games, Team Rocket was never really evil, so much as mildly naughty and staffed entirely by assholes.

>>9218716
if you aren't going with them as the mob.
yeah, rocket makes a good sense of harsh realism to the otherwise idealistic world. They want capitalism and put people over pokemon, not idealistic but certainly not bad.

>>9218443
>complaining about an Alpha release of a free system

Oh Ulrich, your brand of justice so crazy.

>>9218920
yeah, the are still an organization with mob ties, probably im going to portray them as a good group gone wrong, like the black panthers.

>>9218900
It can't work every time. We probably just failed a check somewhere down the line.

>>9218761
The evolution signal that was implied to be forcing Magikarp through an unnatural and heavily painful process? Not to mention that the product of such was already the embodiment of murderous rage, probably made worse by the signal? And the fact that they've twice launched paramilitary invasions and occupations of entire cities, plus taking large amounts of building staff hostage?

Come to think of it, this just doesn't work. Team Rocket is blatantly evil.

>>9218659
I'm not trolling. I hate the system. It's shit, craps all over both established methodology that could be modified to work in a tabletop setting WHICH WOULD WORK FUCKING BETTER, and established canon.

Oh sure, the game I'm playing has had its moments, such as the time one of the players accidentally killed his gangsta rival's starter pokémon and turned him emo, but I'm playing this one game with my GM, then never again.

of course, you may have miss interpeted me, i said if i wasn't going to run them as the mob (as they are in the storyline), They'd make a great foil to the system currently in place.

>>9219146
Why don't you use the reformed Team Galactic, then, on their now-genuine crusade for new energy sources?

>>9219091
see
>>9218885

Also, I'm not quite sure what you're talking about, considering it sticks pretty close to its intended target canon (the manga) pretty well. And having played a successful, enjoyable game of it myself, I have to conclude you're either trolling, or your GM doesn't know what the hell he's doing. Understandable, really, since Dr. Mr. Stark has yet to release any GM Handbook material.

>>9219176
forgot all about them, they'd work fine.

>>9219176
Because Team Rocket are way snappier dressers.

I've seen enough light-blue dyed pageboy haircuts for one lifetime, thanks.

>>9219091
>i just want to play dnd and nothing else. forever.

could someone who's worked on the beta explain the bring a housepet pokemon thing? people did it in the manga, and supposed have done it in the game. How does that work?

>>9219081
When did it say it was painful?

They tested it on a weak pokemon to be able to more easily tell if the results actually created a more powerful pokemon. The gyrados was not acting an different then a normal one in the wild. Sure, they could have tried it with a weaker pokemon, but there was a lake RIGHT NEXT to there base. It was convineint.

Taking over the radio tower was only to find Giovanni, and was only a last resort after searching for him for THREE YEARS.

I don't remember R/B/Y to well, and never played FR/LG, so i can't justify the whole sliph co thing.

>>9219312
That's not the point. Lance and everyone else repeatedly mentioned the fact that the Pokemon were being forced to evolve as something significant, so clearly it was somehow damaging (unless everyone who isn't Team Rocket is just delusional, and that's a theory that I don't buy).

As for the Radio Tower... no, the fact that you're looking for your Great Leader doesn't justify taking over a city. Or kidnapping people and sticking them in basements.

>>9219298
Pretty much, from what I understand of Dr. Mr. Stark's group, he let them inherit a pokemon, either a housepet or an inheritence or somethig, alongside their usual starters.

It's not really a hard and fast game rule, per se, just something the GM can do to speed up the beginning of the game a little (low-level adventures, you know how that can be). It's probably optional, and restricted to low level or early-game pokemon, so nobody starts off with a Gible and rapes everything.

>>9219298
Not my department, but it seems to be an alternitive to picking a starter.

So instead of picking a fire/water/grass pokemon from the proffesor, you bring a (reasonable) pokemon with you. Like a poliwag, Duskull, Pichu, the kind of pokemon that a proffesor would't give you, butcan still be used.

When I reordered the pokedex (which, lets face it, needed to be done long ago), I left a section just after the actual starters for pokemon that make good psuedo-starters.

>>9219384
>>9219452
cool, i was thinking of having a mankey or Natu, (rare but not overpowered pokemon) would they count as a starter or an additional pokemon?

>>9219412
No, that /is/ your starter. Your starter can be justified however it fits into your background, or it can be a gift from a professor if you have no imagination.

Oh yeah. They were also harassing poor Mr. Fuji in Lavender Town after killing Cubone's mother. That was a pretty dick move.

>>9219477
Count as starter.

>>9219384
Either way, both of those were done AFTER giovanni left.

>>9219532
Silph co. wasn't.

Is anyone running an online PTA campaign that has an open spot? Because I would play the SHIT out of this.

>>9219697
I will as soon as beta comes out, i'll post it on /tg/ when it does.

>>9219697
I have a feeling everyone's waiting for the Beta. Kickass or not the system as seen from the end-user point of view does seem to have several holes (Lack of a comprehensive GM section being one)

>>9219717
You realize there'll be like a dozen people wanting to play, right?

>>9217194
Gym battles are now massive spectator sports? Since when? All the times in game, manga, and anime they're one on one with only the friends at the background.

>>9219735

>a dozen

I think you're a few score short, sir.

>>9219735
yeah it'll probably take out half with time restraints and another half with just how the game is played (online games always get drops) leaving me with around 3-5 people the average amount

>>9219776
shit oh well; first come, first served

>>9219751
Because that way its harder for PCs to cheat.

Also, it's a little more exciting that way and mingling with the crowd gives the PCs who AREN'T fighting the Gym leader something to do while they cool their jets

>>9219751

Hell, in the manga the tourney at Brock's gym takes place in what amounts to a wrestling arena.

It seems to depend on the leader what the level of "spectacle" that exists in their gym is.

>>9219751
Not necessarily. "The crowd" might be Pokemon league officials making sure you're not gaming the system with your amazing psychic powers.

aren't there existing pokemon systems? I know there's one for BESM. Why make one for D20?

>>9220019
BESM and M&M both have Children's Cockfighting modules. However, both of them amount to players having five PCs out at the same time, which slows down the game and is a headache for GMs to keep track of.

From a mechanical standpoint, PTA is all about streamlining the relation between Trainer and Pokemon so that it is easier to keep track of the 'mons, while still making it clear that the trainer is the principal character.

As for why d20? I dunno. Seems simple.

>>9219477

It's a tabletop game. Don't see why your GM wouldn't allow unless it happens to be imba in this system.

Can I do this?

>>9220286

OH CHRIST

FUCK THAT IS AWESOME

>>9219751
Really seems up to the venue, Gym leader, and level of the tournament.

Some battles are one on one affairs, like a samurai honor duel. Others have millions of spectators while the pokemon fight in a colosseum.

>>9219939
What happens if I use my powers on the game officials to declare myself the victor then boogie out of there?

>>9220321

Wailords fall, everyone dies.

>>9220321
Then the GM either goes along with it and spins it into a story hook where you get chased around for pokefraud once they figure out what you did, or he gets angry and drops rocks on the whole party.

>>9220346

Size 200% Wailords.

>>9220321
You become an outlaw.

>>9220286
If your GM is at least 1% awesome, fuck yes you can.

>>9217743
Please say you'll do this whenever you summon a pokemon.

Also, To complete the Kamen Rider set, a Kriketune and a Hitmonlee would be appropriate (To complete the team of Heracross, Pinsir, Scyther, and Rotom "Cycle" form.)

>>9220346
Actually, Starks choice of instant part wipe is:
Exploding Gravlers fall, everyone dies.

Btw when is pokemon Black and White suppose to come out?

>>9220668

Golems/Gravelers were my backup, so meh =/

>>9220684
In Japan, Late fall of this year I think

IN AMERICA expect it sometime like 6 or 10 months after that.

>>9220382
That sounds nice, have my name in infamy as I go around doing illegal stuff to win badges. Being chased around the entire world (btw is the entire world just "Japan"? Since there's references to America with Lt. Surge) by the clone army of Officer Jennies.

>>9220684
Late fall of this year for japan.

No official american release date yet, but it will PROBABLY be summer 2011.

>>9220731
>btw is the entire world just "Japan"?
That seems like a matter for individual GMs to decide for themselves.

>>9220668
This is truth.

He actually did have exploding graveler's fall on our party once. Two pokemon got sent into negatives, one player got KO'd and hospitalized, and one graveler got one-shotted before it could blow up.

And I think this happened back when HP was calculated as HP stat*5, so shit was a lot more durable. It was scary shit, I tell you.

>>9220751
>>9220730
I wonder if any good pokemon are coming out with this generation. We need more unique types like Bug/Psychic or Dark/Psychic or Bug/Fire, Fire/grass...etc.

>>9220765
>>9220731
By canon, other places are confirmed to exist. There was a thread on /po/ about it. Orre is in Nevada, the anime and games both mention other places by RL names.

>>9220731
A few of the movies show the entire planet, and Kanto is about the size of america, so probably.

>>9220765
No. The pokemon ranger games are set in Euroland, and the Colosseum games are set somewhere in Arizona, I think.

>>9220826
The movies and the anime has little to no canonical influence.

>>9220808
We need Volbeat and Illumines evo's that are Bug/Electric.
Its a great type combo, and would be able to last in the meta game.

Also as much hate as babies get, I hope for a Shared pre-evo for Miltank/Tauros, a shared pre-evo for Illumines and volbeat, and a pre evo for Kangaskahn.

Also, on the subject of miltank/tauros, I would like to se a minotaur evo for tauros, and a centaur evo for miltank.

And a pinsir evo.

And a fire/dragon.

>>9220991
And Farfetch'd and Luvdisc evolutions.

>>9221018

>Luvdisc

Shit pokemon is shit.

>>9220991
Oh and a spiral shelder evo if slowpoke is in your party.

SLOWPOKE NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO EVOLVE INTO THIS FUCKER

>>9220991
Farfetch'd evo. That's on my wishlist.

Right up there with more interesting bug combinations, Poison being super effective against water, and Stealth Rock getting nerfed.

>>9221089
>>9221062
>>9221038
>>9221042
>>9221018
>>9220991
And we've become a Pokemon General thread.

>>9221038
Hence its need of an evolution.

I would also like an alternate evolution for dragonair, this time actually looking like the other two. And not a fucking DERP ORANGE YOSHI LULZ

>>9221111

>Alternate Dragonair evo

THISTHISTHISTHISTHIS

Dragonite is an abortion.

>>9221128

>Dragonite is a Charizard with Downs

FTFY

>>9221089
They wont change the way types work. However, they do need to add more damaging poison attacks.

As for stealth rock, they should make it last only 5 turs, and add more variety's of each type, then have it function like weather, only one can be out at a time. So you can have stealth rock, OR poison spikes, but not both. They also need to add one that inflicts burn, Like spreading embers on the ground.
>>9221062
YESSSS

I would love to see Pinsir and Heracross get new Evolutions.

Also, LESS LEGENDARIES. FUCK. WE'RE ALREADY CAPTURING GODS, WHERE COULD WE POSSIBLY GO FROM HERE?

>>9221128
That is exactly what is new evo should look like.

FURRET NEEDS AN EVOLUTION

SO DOES SNORLAX

AND WE NEED AN EEVEE EVO FOR EVERY SINGLE TYPE

>>9221265
FUCK YES, HERACROSS, YOU ARE THE BEST BUG POKEMON EVER

The legendaries don't technically have to go up in terms of abilities. And personally, I find Arceus to be something of a shitty legendary, myth-wise.

>>9221302
Steel Eevee, fuck yes.

There was just a thread yesterday.
How does this happen?

>>9221265
There are currently more legendary pokemon then fire pokemon. So yeah...

I would also like to see a new eevee. NOT A NEW EEVEELUTION! Eevee has lived its life, let it go.

I want to see a new pokemon that branches into many different pokemon, this time, evolving into the Physical types instead of Special types like eevee was.

>>9221348
It's almost like people are excited about this game, or something.

>>9221348
/tg/ really loves Pokemon?

>>9221350
Some of the Eevolutions are Physical based. I know at least Leafeon is.

>>9221348
THE SUMMONING WORKED!

And /tg/ is really getting behind this. Its becoming pretty popular. Once beta comes out, I expect at least 1 thread a day.

>>9221265
Heracross is awesome but NO it does NOT need an evolution. It is already an amazingly powerful beast of a pokemon.

>>9221348
Everyone is getting excited. That's what happened.

>>9221379
You know, I guess I should be flattered. I guess I just feel defeated when I show up to /tg/ for a break, while I am actually working on the game, and there is another thread with an ass load of questions.
Screw that, I am flattered. I'm just overwhelmed.
I love you /tg/.

>>9221389
Leafeon, Flareon and technically Umbreon, though Umbreon is physical defensive.

Leafeon is just the only one that can actually hit hard because Flareon has no physical STAB and a terrible movepool despite having absurd attack.

>>9221397
Or to become dead before it even really had a start, remember the Mario PnP /tg/ was fiddling with? Neither do I!

>>9221404
More awesome Bugs in general would be nice.

>>9221389
Flareon is too.

Though you wouldn't know it by looking at its movepool.

>>9221379
HOW DARE THEY!

BAD STUFF HAPPENS WHEN PEOPLE GET EXCITED FOR SOMETHING.

>>9220731
The gamecube games take place in arizona/nevada
check the landscape and dare to compare. If I had the map, I'd throw it up side by side but I seem to have misplaced it.

>>9221348
You're consistently proving that you can deliver, and not just talk big. That causes people to love you.

Now, when people start to hate you, that's when you should be really flattered.

>>9221466
I CHALLENGE YOU TO A SHODDY BATTLE!

THERE CAN ONLY BE DOCTOR!

>>9221424
What i meant was physical types.

Water, Fire, Electric, Psychic, Dark, Ice, and grass are all special types.

I say introduce a new pokemon that evolves into some physical types.

>>9221466
Well, since you're here, you wouldn't happen to know much about Kamen Rider, do you Doctor?

Because earlier in the thread some people had fun building some Trainer concepts. A fun suggestion someone threw around was using Rotom to posess things other than the stuff in the games (namely a motorcycle) and how that would be handled if it was allowed at all.

>>9221494
DID SOMEONE SAY SHODDY BECAUSE I THINK I HEARD SHODDY.

Me with my crappy but fun UU/NU theme teams here!

I guess I can throw up the final names for the Mystic again.

We have the Ace Trainer, Breeder, Capture Specialist, Coordinator, Martial Artist, Psychic, Ranger, Researcher
Announcing the ninth class: The Mystic

Advanced Classes:
Buffet
Channeler
Godspeaker
Guardian
Muse
Rune Master

The Mystic had two objectives in mind when we were putting her together.
1. Involve the use of pokemon, so the player can play a pokemon, but make them distinct from the pokemon themselves.
2. Represent the canon characters who are... Mystic and have close relationships to the legendary pokemon (such as movie character of the days).

>>9221466
As someone who lives in vegas, I can honestly say that it feels like its taking place in my backyard.

God I can't wait to move out of this hell hole.

>>9221494
You're on. Be prepared for doom. I'll log on in a bit.

>>9221566
>Buffet
>Godspeaker

Now THESE sound interesting. A little info on their shticks? Unless you're doing a full writeup.

>>9221581
What server/room? I wanna watch.

>>9221556
HOOK UP WITH ZOGWORT ON SMOGON, TOUHOU

UU UP IN THIS BITCH

>>9221632
Challenged!

>>9221629
We usually hang out on Smogon.

/tg/ should really host its own server...

Hey stark, just thought you might want to see this

>>9217547

>>9221648
Try again, touhou. Had challenges off for some reason <_<

Speaking of Pokemon, how is HG/SS anyway? Planning on buying it instead of romming, haven't played any of the recent Pokemon after Gold. I liked the PokeGear phone a lot.

>>9221665
Depending on how many people are working on PTA and where...

The idea of a cross-homebrew tournament came up with the people in the Adeptus Evangelion channel, since we have a few pokemans players here.

>>9221690
HEY THIS IS JOEY! REMEMBER MY SUPER-COOL RATTATTA! MY RATTATTA IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER RATTATTA! ITS LIKE MY RATTATTA IS IN THE TOP PERCENTAGE OF RATTATTA!

>>9221746
I LIKE SHORTS BECAUSE THEY'RE COMFY AND EASY TO WEAR.

>>9221746

>>9221666
Ha. Funny.

>>9221758

>>9221746
>>9221758
>>9221765
Okay, fuck, I forgot about the more annoying trainers. Can you choose which trainers to get phone numbers from now? I want to collect female trainer numbers, because Gold is awesome like that.

>>9221746

FFFFFFFFFF

>>9221791

I did that in silver. I deleted all guy phone numbers. My characters name was Pimp.

...I was young. *ashamed*

>>9221765
Has anyone fought his Raticate yet? HOLY CRAP THAT FUCKER IS STRONG.

HE WAS NOT KINDING ABOUT IT BEING IN THE TOP PERCENTAGE.

And if younthink about it, he got his raticate up to level 50 by ONLY fighting other rattatta.

I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT, DOCTOR, I WAS IN A BATTLE WITH ANOTHER /TG/ER

LET US HAVE OUR HIGHLANDER-ESQUE BATTLE

>>9221603
Godspeaker is basically all of the antagonists in the movies. It isn't named for an ability to speak to gods. Rather, the Godspeaker's abilities will be god-like and their actions will be like the voices of gods.
They will have a negative effect on the given legendary they interact with, and will be able to use legendary Moves, syphoning the legend's strength. They will be the opposite of the Muse Advanced class, who will harmonize with legends to use their power.

One cannot take both Muse and Godspeaker.

The Buffet will be able to buff themselves and then impose those buffs onto allied pokemon.

>>9221834

I remember someone telling us how he used game haxxin' to figure out Joey was telling the truth, as his rattata has a strong nature and high base stats, or something. I can't quite recall details...

>>9221791
You can choose who to add, but be careful. YOU CAN'T DELETE THEM.

>>9221861

Stark! Stark!

Is there a list of potential non-standard starters/guidelines for figuring out what's suitable and what's not, or is it just DM fiat?

>>9221861
Godspeaker sounds awesome. Not worth the two class slots it would take though, for my concept.

I'm on smogon now, I'll play a few rounds.

SHODDY BATTLE IS BEING OBSTINATE

IT SEEKS TO PREVENT THE FIGHT OF THE APOCALYPSE

>>9221906
There's a list of suggested starters in the alpha .pdf on 1d4chan.

It includes Abra, I notice, which may mean that some choices are not necessarily as perfect as others.

>>9221859
That was an excellent match.

And I still suck.

how long does it take to level a pokemon in this game?
I'm just wondering, because getting to lv. 50-60, and only leveling once or twice each time you play...

>>9221914
I'll probably drop in to watch

>>9221906
I'll give many world suggestions, settings suggestions, rules and stuff, but really I want each GM to be able to make their own pokemon world.

I'll provide premade teams for canon gym leaders for example, but pokemon tabletop adventures is the chance for people to make their own regions. I want people to do whatever they'd like.

>>9221957
Exp drops are pretty large. Pokemon level fast, until around 35. But a well used 35 can one hit K.O. a level 60. Pokemon can be taken down pretty quickly in game so encounters are never drawn out too long.

>>9221970
By the way, how does Teleport work? I ask because I want to start with an Abra.

>>9221930
>>9221970

>Duskull
>Gastly
>Swinub
>Spheal

OH GOD I LOVE YOU

I WANT TO PLAY THIS SHIT RIGHT NOW

Well, stark, the thread is archived, I recommend that you read through it when you get the chance.

Some very interesting stuff.

Also, in the last thread you never mentioned the rune master, whatts it do?

>>9222026
Unown manipulation.

Gets pretty wacky when you own enough Unown.

I HAVE TRIUMPHED

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

>>9222026
It RUNES the game for everyone!

>>9222156
>>9222014
Specifically, I want to know if the following tactic is viable, at the levels before Abra can evolve and learn new moves: Trainer has glaive. Abra teleports trainer to places to use the glaive and, as much as possible, avoid harm.

>>9222024
Actually When reordering the pokedex I made it vary easy to find pokemon that work well for starters. The list basically goes like this:

Starters
Psuedo-starters
Vendor Trash
3-stage pokemon
2-stage pokemon
Single Stage pokemon
Eevee and Tyogre
Unown
Psuedo-legendaries
Legendaries

This really solves the whole Pichu being 100 or so pokemon after pikachu.

>>9222207

I like the way you think, boy.

>>9222207
Of course, even if the P:TA dex makes the most sense, people will still use the national dex by default :3

>>9222156
OH FUCK YES

Can you elaborate? Like some abilitys?

>>9221874

It has an Adamant Nature, there by boosting its Attack. And no IV is lower than 26, with most being 30-31.

It's a beast. Especially when it's got STAB Hyper Fang. If it was holding a Choice Scarf or Life Orb, it would probably decimate entire Elite 4 teams by itself.

>>9222323
And, y'know, wasn't level 5 or so.

>>9222260
or control-f on the .pdf

>>9222284
One of the starting abilities is that you can fuse multiple Unown into a single entity, so you can store multiple in a single poke ball. They also can summon Unown to add them to their roster. The combined Unown will have a single HP total, and will be able to use the different hidden powers they each know.

Have one of each of the Unown as a single entity?
Reality just got a whole lot weirder.

I have to know more about this. Link?

>>9222260
Meh, They can if they want to. But really, nintendo needs to get rid of that shit and create a better dex. The only thing I didn't like was the placement of eevee and unown.

However, with the rune master announced, I'm a bit more comfortable with it.


Also, stark, I think I remember you saying you were going to put in a system for makin Fakemon. That still in?

>>9222382
Search on 1d4chan

Pokemon Tabletop Adventures

>>9222403
I can't imagine it would be hard. Just come up with some appropriate sounding base stats and moveset, wrap it in some delicious fluff and you're made.

>>9222403
Well, using the pokedex and 'how to read' pokedex, which I posted last night, anyone should be able to put a pokemon together if they make up some base stats.

One of my players, a Ranger, currently has a Zoroark as his Companion. It killed his father.

>>9222351

I'm talking about when you rematch him. He's got like a level 54 Raticate at that point.

Insane luck fights are always fun.

>>9222403
National dex IS pretty awkward. I wouldn't put a full rewrite past them at some point, but keeping the original 151 in their classic order for nostalgia value may be too much of a thing to give up.

>>9222486
I can't see them doing a complete reorder, but it would make sense to place evos and baby forms next to one another.

>>9222370
Holy shit yes. Rune Master/Godspeaker is now replacing Ball designer/Engineer as my favorite class.

Which brings up another question, how do you determine the type of hidden power?
>>9222351
He calls you for a rematch, and its now a level 50ish raticate.

>>9222486
There will never be a full rewrite of the national dex. That's like, the fucking point of the national dex.

I just needed to say, thank you so much to those involved with the project. Mainly, I want to thank Axiom, and I want everyone to know that without him, this project wouldn't be arriving so soon.

Halfwing saved me a headache as well and every poster throughout every update thread who made even the slightest suggestion has contributed to this project.

/tg/; we get shit done and we're going to have fun with this game once Beta is out. I wouldn't want it any other way.

>>9222528
Yeah, but my point is that with so many additions that would basically be a full rewrite and STILL mess with the first gen ones.

ANYWAY, TABLETOP.

The Runemaster and Unown. Are there benefits for spelling certain things out? Can it eventually make Unown learn stuff besides Hidden Power?

>>9222574

I wish all /tg/ homebrew was as successful as yours looks to be, Stark. The Great Devourer and Arthropocalypse are some I would like to see completed :|

>>9222541
Hidden Power – Normal
Each pokemon and person holds a different hidden ability deep inside, and they unleash it in a burst of power.
EOT – 2
Ranged
See Effect
Effect: No Target, Burst
Hidden Power makes a 3-meter Burst. When a pokemon first obtains the Move Hidden Power, roll 1d4 and 1d20. For the 1d4 roll, a result of 1 makes the Damage Dice Roll 2d10; a result of 2 makes the Damage Dice Roll 4d6; a result of 3 makes the Damage Dice Roll 3d10; a result of 4 makes the Damage Dice Roll 2d20. For the 1d20 roll, the Type is Bug on a result of 1; Dark on 2; Dragon on 3; Electric on 4; Fighting on 5; Fire on 6; Flying on 7; Ghost on 8; Grass on 9; Ground on 10; Ice on 11; Normal on 12; Poison on 13; Psychic on 14; Rock on 15; Steel on 16; Water on 17; and on a result of 18-20, reroll the d20. Those become the permanent stats.

>>9222574
I would post my brofist.jpg if I wasn't having computer problems.

>>9222610
Spelling? Not really yet, though it can be used, if you have enough given letters, for the Unown to tell you things. They will be able to use other Moves too. It'll just be... limited.

>>9222628
>2d20 burst damage
And unown is also now my favorite pokemon.

>>9222574

>>9222697
Burst is dangerous in parties... you'll hit your allies too.

>>9222001
Ash and Misty are the same age which was 10 right? Or was she 12? Anyways, how does this sliding timescale work? I mean Ash should be older by now, he's been traveling around the known world for how long? He's seen how many X-mas episodes (at least one every two years), so... yea...

>>9222722
Yeah, I guess.

Still a pokemon that can create minature expplosions that change in element is pretty awesome.

>>9222798

yeah, when i saw the new season i thought it was a bit weird since Ash would be older and still hanging around with ten year old girls.

>>9220800
Which one are you?

>>9219412
I left it up to my player's backstories. One of them did field studies with a Venonat from his university, and when he left school, he stole it. Another raised a cubone in his house as a pet. Another had pets at home, but when they started their journey, they wanted to start fresh so they didn't take anything with them to Oak's lab.

>>9222798
things like this are why the anime sucks.
After the first season "which wasn't that great," they just decided fuck it, no plot development from here on out.
And... there you go.

should be (which wasn't that great)
not "which wasn't that great"

Meh, just stick with the manga.

She is legal. I'm not sure about read though, he SHOULD be 19, but... well some shit went wrong, and he spent some time not aging, so even though they are the same age, she is older.

I dig the new outfits and hair styles for the Kanto female leaders.

What's the character sheet for this thing going to look like? Are you designing a Paper one or will it be all spreadsheets?

Also, have you released one with your various released through these threads? I've lost track.

S stark, as I said earlier my computer is on the fritz, but as soon as its back up, I'll be able to start working on the dex again.

I've been doing a lot on my own time since I couldn't find it. So don't worry. Once you're back up, let me know so I can tell you what I need so you don't go copying what I've already done.

Dirty and I have been working on a space efficient character sheet for printing out. Trainer Info will be on one page, and pokemon pages can fit 2 pokemon per page. If you're stating each pokemon you catch over the course of a campaign, you might end up having 5 or 6 pokemon sheets. Generally, you'll end up catching pokemon you never really want to stat and will just list them on your trainer page's PC inventory.
Pwah has been making the spreadsheet. It gets tweaked now and then. Both the player sheets, for printing, and the spreadsheets will be ready by Beta. Until then, sorry folks.
