(( So, finally, the event is starting! A few things before things get going: - Here's the signup thread, with the posting order and who's in what group. It'll be important for reference.
- Please follow the posting order! If someone doesn't post for five days, then the next person may post ahead of them.
- As for the groups- they will be going seperate ways in the dungeon, and may even be on different floors. They will only meet on the 'boss floor'. However, this is not a race, and everyone who gets to the boss floor will get a chance at fighting them.
- When posting, please separate the different characters if they're in different groups. Also list what groups the characters you're posting as are in, so that others in the same or different groups don't get too confused. I'll also be keeping track of what groups are on what floor. Everyone is on F1 at the moment.
)) Misty Forest. The place was regarded for it's supposedly 'haunted' atmosphere, but, also became a place for criminals to escape to. Usually not that much of a deal, with how often it happened, and that the residents of Candle Village seemed to not make much of a fuss of it. At least until rumors surfaced. Rumors that the 'General Store Robbers' had run away into the forest, leaving a few bits of evidence to actually give some proof; many worn, but still somewhat visible footprints, and what appeared to be marks of something dragged on the ground. A bag of items, perhaps? Still, despite being unofficially proven, pokemon were coming to the forest, whether for the reward, or a sense of seeking justice. So, the hunt for the General Store Robbers began! - (( Group 1 )) Genia looked into the forest, attempting to peer beyond the entrance, but to no avail. It was even thicker than the smoke from the Geysers back in her icy home. She'd never been to the forest before, a water pokemon out of water, haha. Still, one thing motivated her, and that was the reward... and a small sense of justice. She hated tricks, and all sorts of cons, so of course, she'd feel contempt for the pokemon that did such an act. She turned to the pokemon that seemed to be travelling into the forest as well, "Keep up or not, I don't care- jus' stay out of my way, alright?" with that remark out of the way, she paused before finally stepping into the forest. - (( Group 4 )) Zeerum stepped up, ready to go into the forest. Looking to who was with him, he couldn't help but find it... somewhat amusing that the Rattata was with him yet again, and again, on a mission to hunt down some convict, although this time with a much more substantial reward. The store was much more popular that it looked, yet still kept it's humble appearance. He supposed there was something admirable to that. "Well, yer ready, right?" he said, looking to the Rattata. He wondered, was this pokemon just for the reward as well? Or, at least Zeerum was partially here for that reason. Perhaps if it was a larger establishment, he would have cared far less. |

(( Group 1 ))
Chris walked around looking at this place, he mainly joined to explore, however he wanted to help as well, OK OK 75% Exploring was his reason, the other 25% is to help the shop that was "Robbed" He thought there was a spooky charm, although he though if this was a pokeplay, this would be the part where the cowardly pokemon clings to his or her partner, he also laughed at how cheesy those were
Chris sighed at Genia's comment 'Just remember that when you need help!' Chris thought then turned to face the other pokemon with the group "Well lets wish each other luck!" Chris smiled, then walked into the forest

"Luck...uh-huh.." Kiri mumbled, scratching behind her ear. Why had she gotten herself caught up in this mess? Sure, the reward sounded tantalizing and all.... She paused, looking up at the trees as they loomed over her. This forest was rumored to be filled with all kind of creepy Pokémon. And, honestly, she felt sorry for the robbers. She had stolen, yes, and she had been chased, though none of this was on a scale that was even close to robbing a whole store. Still, she could relate- being tracked down was never any fun.
Kiri shook her head in an attempt to clear her mind, and ran after the other two in her group that had already entered the forest.

((group 4))
The entrance to the forest seemed just as menacing as he remembered it. Tat walked towards the entrance, only to see a familiar face already standing there. It was the carracosta from the last time the rattata had ventured into the Misty Forest, adding even more to the sense of Dejavu that the pokemon had. To think that the store was robbed right before I could buy anything. Tat remembered the description of the robber: a drowzee, who used his Psychic powers to force the chinglings into giving away their stock. I hate scum like him (maybe her), who use their powers for crime. Damn them. When asked whether or not he was ready, the pokemon only nodded, and took the first- no, second steps into the dungeon.

((group 3))
Sam ran up to the Dungeon. As usual, he was there before his partner. as he looked upon the dungeon for the first time, he felt a slight chill run up his spine, as if he had just swam through a body of especially cold water. He shook it off and looked back to calle out to his partner: Come on! don't you want to catch this guy? he then waited for Jackson's response.

Jackson ran up behind his friend, winded.
"Why can't you slow down a little? I don't even understand how you're so fast. You don't have legs!"
Jackson knew he was just whining now, so he shook his head and looked at Sam. He glanced at the Misty Forest. He felt as though the fire within him dampened slightly. He kept up a bravado though.
"You ready, buddy," Jackson said, a wicked grin on his face. This time he would lead the charge. The Growlithe ran off into the dungeon, "Better catch up on those stumps you call legs!"
He laughed as he charged into the dungeon.

(Group 1)
Arizen was the last of his group to enter the dark, eerie atmosphere of the Misty Forest, which was the supposed location of the escaped thief. He knew that many others had arrived as well, and for various reasons. Some wanted the money, while others wanted the justice. While he did feel that stealing all that stock was wrong, he was mostly here for the journey itself. He took the moment to study the recently formed group of Pokémon that were with him.
Let's see, There are a couple of small, but seemingly agile Pokémon, and one Pokémon that seems more powerful in terms of physical strength than the other two, he thought to himself. If appearances tell the truth, then our attributes will compliment each other nicely against the enemy. Teamwork, though, is another thing altogether...
He heard one of the smaller Pokémon wishing luck to the rest of the group. "Yeah, we may need it."

((I did save that post that had to be removed, if you were wondering.
((Group 2))
"A-a-are y-y-you sure it's s-s-sa-a-a-afe?" Sealia was clamming up, shy and unsure of what to do. She was always like this when there were bad guys in a dungeon. She was a neutral party, but she couldn't help it! A Ghost-type afraid of evil? Ridiculous! At least, if you weren't Sealia.
"I'm sure it's safe, Sealia," assured her brother, pushing her in. "Nothing bad's going to happen. At least, until we find the criminal." The Shiny Frillish shuddered again. She wasn't feeling good about this adventure. "B-b-but, i-i-it's... out of w-w-wat-t-ter! I-I'm not u-s-e-d to thiiiiiis!" The jellyfish hopped behind her Shellos brother. Sammy was of course annoyed, but he was used to her jumpy behavior. "It'll be fine, Sealia! A piece of cake!" Samuel could go on and on about how 'safe' and 'regular' it was going to be. However, he still had his anxieties. "...Although, considering how the villain was capable of hypnotizing more than one Pokemon, we should be careful. Don't want to become evil henchmen. Euugh!" Sammy had a sick feeling in his stomach just saying it. He would do anything but become evil. If he never became a villain, it'd be too soon. The group barely took a step through their passage when...
K-krik!
Sealia practically leaped three feet in the air when she heard that. "WHAT WAS THAT?!" Samuel looked to where his sister originally stood. "That was just a twig. Don't worry~ You've become more jumpy than normal, sis..." explained her brother. Sealia felt better. "Oh-hoh, I guess I was... Let's try and not get our heads popped off!" Samuel gave her a strange look. "What? I was being serious..."

(( I was thinking that, perhaps, all the groups should have separate threads, so as to make things more organized. If every group were to have a different thread, then you wouldn't have to worry about re-posting everything in the thread, just responding to what's happening.
I could also make a boss thread for those that get to the end, or for everyone once they finish if they were willing to wait for the other groups. ))

((I think that would be a great idea. It would also allow some groups to go at a quicker pace than others. As for the boss thread, I think that you should have A single thread, so that if the first group faints, another group can try to rescue them, similar to the games.))

That sounds good, actually. Also, cometblaze, that's a good idea as well. That way everyone would have a chance at the boss.
