Fair enough, thanks for the feedback~

Sure thing. To be fair, we probably do need to look at all sorts of odd edge cases like emera and the weird synchro-bullshit in Ferrum Battles at some point. <<

I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that in the next year or so Gamefreak pushes out another spin-off, I kinda like them even more than the main series games xD

But the various different mechanics between the main series games, PMD games, Conquest etc. might throw up in the air how some things should be handled.

To use in what? What's the model from? What is the context in which you want to use the thing? xD

Visual for an appearance in a bio, from an official pokemon game

If it's from an official Pokemon game i should say that would be fine. I'm guessing it's a character that resembles a generic NPC rather than a specific character? xD (Either way - using words to describe anything in RP is much preferred than leaning on images.)

To tag a person, write the "at" symbol - @ - followed by the username of the person you want to tag - for example, @Rick27 . This will alert them to the fact you mentioned them in a post. ^^

Got it!

I have been slashed to subatomic fragments.....OW

We're functional, which is more than can be said for most of the world these days. XD

Name changes don't necessarily need a reason! 'Just because'; is also perfectly valid. A staff member just needed to get around to approve the name change. So there's that settled.

As for the other thing - I'm actually not sure! This is probably a technical issue - @Teapot is more likely to know more. ^^

Thank you, @StellarWind Elsydeon !

Child, just because someone else violated the rules and wasn't caught yet doesn't mean they weren't violating the rules, or that you have a mandate to do the same because someone else did it.

The posts you've attempted to make both before and after you were moderated also demonstrate that you've failed to read our rules despite the warnings. Hence your moderation continued.

I suggest you spend less time complaining and more time reading the rules and making sure you don't break them again.

Ok

I'd say the rules regarding fan-made Pokemon would also apply to fusions. ^^

Alright then, thanks.

Can you elaborate a bit? ^^

Could we do this in PM?

Fire away.

Ask me again when this is actually relevant. At this point we have no clue how the -max nonsense even works. ^^

Okay, I'll ask again in November!

Bit disingenuous to try to draw attention to yourself when you've made a second account with just a slightly different number to get around that restriction all those years ago too AND continued breaking the RP forum rules under said second account. Seems like we missed that at the time. Massive vigilance flaw on our part.

By all rules of logic I should ban you for doing that as our global rules EXPLICITLY prohibit this. However, it HAS been an inordinate amount of years during which you didn't exist here. So I'm going to remove your restriction from the RP forums - but if you so much as break even a fraction of any of our rules, you're getting launched out of here for good.

Got it, I'll try to do my best

Merge'd ^^

The rules are a bit more lax for specific important NPCs than they are for player character. They can still have only one mega evolution and it must be their key pokemon as it were - and they would only use this sort of power when a situation truly calls for it.

Established NPCs who canonically have a mega evolution capable Pokemon in their team (i.e. Korrina, Steven, Wulfric if the anime counts) are, of course, allowed to have theirs. Ones who don't or non-established NPCs.. you should probably run those as an organized list by me anyway, though they are more likely to be approved with less detail requirement than player characters do.

My bad, we normally don't allow names starting in 'special' characters for similar reasons but I must have approved the name-change while running on semi-automatic.

I did a rewind on your name change - you're back to being Swirled (just 'Soul' is unfortunately already taken). Feel free to change it again when your name change limit expires.

Thank you

Ye gods, does no one read the actual warnings...
The problem wasn't that you posted something "someone else already did" - it was that you posted something made with a doll-maker type application, as that's not allowed on the corner. ^^

Ohhhhh also I'm only 11 and well I'm kinda bad a t reading lol

There aren't any, the rules regarding legendaries apply only to the RP boards~

PrincessPika is correct, although she is also overstepping her non-existent authority and should let actual staff members answer the questions of members rather than mini-mod.

oh, ok

Well that's a bit of a situation, then... And I'm actually not sure what to say. Obviously, other players can't force a kill on your character as that would be technically considered autoing - and you can't really neutralize any of them specifically and make a break for it because that would be autoing THEM.

What you - and the other RPers - need to do is actually communicate and discuss this matter among yourselves and actually figure out a solution. What RP even IS this?

Hypothetical, but thanks for letting me know.

Yeah, I mostly meant just talking about it or using it as a point of mention in dialogue, or within the lore of an RP. I was just curious.

Until the games are released, Galar and anything related to it may not be used in RPs, as anything you might have on the region is speculation and/or partial information which may be contradicted thoroughly by canon.

Okay. Thanks for the clarification.

I'm not sure what Hazbin Hotel is, but excessive violence and/or gore for the hurr-durr-lol-random is best kept to other communities.

@Philucifer you're wrong. in hazbin hotel there are massacres because of overpopulation.

RP settings do not work like the games do. Pokedex completion does not require catching Pokemon (Pokedex entry writing would actually likely be the job of legitimate researchers rather than dumb children doing unpaid labour), and the average trainer is unlikely to ever encounter an actual legendary pokemon in their entire life, let alone actually catch one. So yeah, no.

Okay, thank you for the feedback

afraid so. you might have to recreate them in a more simple form, but game screenshots are still not your work.

So a direct copy is off-limits, but a recreation would be alright?

in this case yeah.

Edited bases are a bit of a grey area in the RP forums - although I'd say that the same rule regarding bases in the Creative Corner should apply - so long as the edits are yours and you provide a link to the original base as posted by its original creator, they should be okay.

Awesome, thanks!

I've had that question asked before, and the answer is typically that in order to mimic something, pokemon like Zorua usually need to have encountered it before, which suggests a previous encounter with said Legendary. Such an encounter wasn't approved and so this really should not be done.

Mimicry of such from an impression or stories or second-hand accounts would likely to be inaccurate and not really fool anyone.

I understand. Thank you for taking the time to answer my silly little question.

That is exactly what it is, yes. I put it together Several Billion Years Ago when the Meet the Team videos were still slowly materializing and it amused the everloving frell out of me, so I kept it. xD

Done. ^^

Ah, I see. To be honest, I'm not really one for small talk either, not because I don't have the time, I simply feel a long chat is a good way to relieve stress. Regarding your dislike for small talk on forums, I totally agree. They are meant for roleplay! Not off-topic chit-chat!

Well, the RP boards are meant for roleplay, obviously other boards have their own purposes. But I get what you mean. XD

Haha ^^
