Oh wow, that is a cool map. I need to check out that Inkarnate thing you speak of.

Anyway, I'm gonna be thrusting myself into this to control a single Gym Leader. I got le acceptance.

Character Sheet
Name: Vladimir "Vlad" Duncan
Age: 33
Gender: Male
Description: I'll make this eventually once I get more of an idea of this rp, the region, and my character.
Personality: ^^^
History: None for now.
Likes/Dislikes: Under development.

Pokemon Gym Team
♀️Weavile
♀️Alolan Ninetales
♂️Beartic
Cryogonal
♂️Mamoswine

And for the sake that he may be used outside of the gym if you guys want it, I'll give him a personal team not issued by the League. I haven't checked the essentials of this rp, yet, so if there ISN'T a league that designates Pokemon teams for their Gym Leaders, then consider the above team his personal one.

Pokemon Personal Team
♀️Serperior
♀️Weavile
♀️Alolan Ninetales
♂️Swellow
♂️Machoke
♂️Lapras

I almost forgot to mention, but if you hadn't figured it out already, he's the Ice Gym Leader.

Welcome to the RP, however temporarily lel













I updated the first post with some things for the third city. Do review it and tell me what you think.
 
kyuukestu

So I went ahead and made a very rough proto-map for the entire region.

It only contains the towns so far, as well as where I think the other gyms would fall, and maybe some quirks for them. This is a Proto-map though, so comments, criticism, and changes are welcomed.

Notably, I think we might need to expand the region's size to accommodate more cities because it kinda feels cramped to me. Also, making the entire northern region Ice-bound was probably not a good idea in hindsight.

Geminous_Proto-Map.jpg


I'm not sure if you can read the text so I'll also write it out here:

Electric Gym City:
Habitat: Urban/Freshwater/Plains
Situated between the largest body of Freshwater and the Plains, runs on Hydro and Wind electricity.


Ground Gym City:
Habitat: Mountains/Caves/Swamp/Freshwater
The high mountains trap all rainfall leaving the land wet & marshy. Its already rugged terrain accommodates swamps, caves, and underground water reservoirs.

Mountains Blocking Rainfall also creates a desert on the other end.


Dragon Gym City: (Suggested 7th Gym)
Habitat: Mountains/Caves/Volcanos/Heated Areas
An extreme environment for the most extreme types. Even arriving is a challenge that tests the bond between trainer and Pokemon.

Ice Gym City:
Habitat: Plains/Forest (Northern Regional Variants Available)
Protected by perpetual winter and snowstorms, the unforgiving cold will be your greatest challenge.

Poison Gym (T.O.X City)
Habitat: Swamp
Centered in a Poison lake, a marshy City surrounded by a dense smog from the heavily industrialized development of potions, leaving most citizens wearing gas masks.

Ghost Gym:
Habitat: Forest (Deathly Hallows)
The Final Challenge, a lone, haunting island to the region's extreme south. Many trainers who fall here are never heard from again. Some suspect they roam the island as ghost type pokemon.
There's a side-quest to be had, maybe a highly dangerous set of ruins which overconfident trainers don't return from.





We'd still need some smaller towns for Contest Halls (unless we double-up), and non-gym towns, so the positions of the Towns will probably be shifted around regardless. This map is just a skeleton I came up with.

Also, we'll need space for the Pokemon League.

Building on the battle boat idea, the Pokemon League could be an island in the middle of the Lake central to the region. Once you get to the region you take on the Elite 4 and champion. My idea was that the Flying Elite 4 would be first, and then she'd relay that the rest of the Pokemon League is beneath the island, and trainers would need to use their Pokemon to Dive/Travel throughout the subterranean league.

That last idea sounds pretty neat, and the side-quest is worth working on. I'll see if I can come up with something

Thanks! and yea, we'd need to flesh out the towns in terms of quests, notable locations, and story things.

I actually got the idea from a hack version of Ruby, Ruby Destiny Reign of Legends, where the Pokemon League is actually in the second town, but you have to surf and then use waterfall to get onto a high-rise island.

Aha you worked a bit on this. Nice job! The most elaborate and accurate map yet. Everything looks good for me. Though I do like the touch with the haunted island, fits Shen’s character lol

Wasn’t there supposed to be a Ranger centric town? Should place that somewhere too, probably a break town where our characters can take a break from Gyms/Contest.

I’m all for a few more chill town, y’all should know by now that I love wholesome slice of life stuff

If you think that’s necessary then go ahead, you’ve built the majority of the region after all so manipulating a little land mass shouldn’t be an issue. You could also just make the snow region smaller or add in more cold themed towns and cities

Most definitely, a minor mix of both. I was thinking of a Snowy-Contest Hall, but I also intend to fill the space with some environments. Ice Mountains, Caves, Lakes, etc. So that there'll be available areas for all the Pokemon in the Biomes. E.g. Lapras only appearing in Icy Waters.

Click to expand...
I love it

I thought about it, but I wanted some more Pokémon of other types to flesh out her research. Magnemite can deliver power to equipment and subdue aggressive Pokémon who are suffering from being trapped in plastic and Kangaskhan can care for them until they are healthy again. All Water would be a fun challenge, but I don't want to let Sandra walk around with only a Staryu until I get good rolls.
