Who: Open!
When: OOC: 4/02 // IC: 6/16
Where: ViViD.
What: ViViD's newest level seems to be an interesting one - a Pokémon battling challenge that's been custom-coded with influence from Steven and his world. While this is a way for Steven to train (and see the talent that Cerealia has to offer), it's also a way to share the coolness of the Pokémon world with the colony! If you've ever wanted to Pokémon AU, now's your chance.
Rating/Warning: E for Everyone! Please don't make me change that... it's Pokémon :(
A. Welcome to the world of Pokémon!
[ so you've decided to log into ViViD. maybe steven has been dropping hints to you that today would be a good day to do so, or you heard from someone else that a cool new level was being released. either way, upon logging in, a young woman in what appears to be nurse's attire will be standing in front of you. she bows politely, her smile welcoming. but... where's that background music coming from? ]
Welcome to the Battle Tower!
In this custom level, you will be able to participate in a rapid-pace Pokémon battle challenge, all while earning Credits. To learn the basics of Pokémon and Pokémon battling, please consult the Pokédex that has been provided for you.
[ upon her speaking those words, a touch-screen device will appear in your hands. it speaks in a computerized voice, giving you all of the basic info on type advantages, attacks, and a list of pokémon themselves and their data entries upon their selection. ]
The aim of this level is to battle your way through the Tower and ascend to the top. On each floor, you will find a challenger hoping to do the same; the winner of each battle will determine who moves on. For every win you accumulate, your rewards will increase exponentially and be added to your account.
Should you win ten consecutive battles, you will face the Battle Tower's most powerful Trainer - the Champion of the Hoenn region's Pokémon League. He's quite eager to see your potential!
[ as for who that Champion is... she doesn't say, and won't say if she is prompted. but anyone with the title of "champion" is bound to be strong, right? ]
Though you may choose six rental Pokémon to accompany you during this level, battle formats will be 3-on-3. To make the most of your experience in this simulation, we highly encourage you to foster bonds with your partners for the time you are together. Please, do your best!
[ and with another bow, the level selection screen will allow you to select your team of rental pokémon. the choices are almost overwhelming - all pokémon (barring legendaries) are available for rental. when you've made your decisions, the world dissipates into the simulation of a tall, gleaming tower. are you ready to take on the challenge?
oh. the music's changed. ]
B. Would you like to rest your Pokémon?
[ congratulations, you've made it through another floor! or maybe you just lost, and you're contemplating your defeat. or maybe you didn't listen to that lady at all, and you've decided that this "battling" thing is for suckers.
whatever your reason, you'll find yourself in the battle tower's rest area. it's a comfortable space with snack vending machines for people and pokémon alike, areas to sit down and relax, and televisions broadcasting highlights of the tower matches (if you're lucky, you might see one of yours!). there's also an area to heal your team, of course... by the same nurse that welcomed you? no, she'll brush that off and say that that was her cousin, and laugh about how she gets that all the time. there's an awfully uncanny family resemblance, isn't there?
if you've been thinking about getting to know the pokémon you've chosen, now might be a good time to call them out of their poké balls. everyone else seems to be doing it, and that nurse lady did say that you should foster bonds... what's the worst that could happen? ]
C. You are challenged by... (NON-MINGLE)
[ so you've made it through ten consecutive battles without losing. that's quite the feat, especially for a rookie trainer - you should be proud! but like the nurse said, the "champion" still stands in the way of you conquering the battle tower. defeat him, and there's sure to be a nice reward waiting in the wings. you've already gone this far, so why stop now?
upon taking the (significantly longer) final elevator ride, walking through the hallowed hallway and passing through the large double doors that lay open for you, you'll find yourself in a large, echoing room. a handsomely-dressed man standing at its head - do you recognize him, or is he a complete stranger? either way, he'll be turning around to greet you with a smile.
the music's changed again. ]
So you've made it here... I believe congratulations are in order! [ and he'll step forward. ] Have you enjoyed your time with Pokemon thus far?

ota~
[ Kousetsu isn't normally one for Vivid but he's been trying to get more credits to help out with the money for swordhaus. This was not what he was expecting when logging in today though. His head will tilt to the side as he goes through the long list of pokemon. He'll pick out his few...eventually?! He's just a little overwhelmed at the sheer amount that are available to him. He doesn't even know what pokemon are?! Please halp. If you're nearby and he happens to come over he'll ask a very basic question. ]
Do you know what these are? I have never seen animals quite like them before. [ But some of them sure are cute...Kousetsu wants to take all of them home, tbh. But he knows that's not possible, and only being allowed six is not enough either. But he will just have choose. ]
B
[ Okay, so, peaceful sword isn't going to do many battles. Instead he'll be in the rest area letting his pokemon out to wander and mingle with whoever else is around! His six pokemon are mismatched but honestly Kousetsu doesn't really seem to mind?! They are as followed: One, Two, Three, Four, Five, and Six. It's a strange combination of pokes but Kousetsu seems to enjoy their presence as much as they enjoy his, so it's all good. All they have in common is that they're as blue or almost a similar shade of blue as his hair, go figure. ]
A. because u can never have too many swordbuds
I think they're Pokemon. There's a man here with tons of them, buuuuut I'm... not entirely sure he mentioned anything about--
[ As she looks up at this person she's decided to randomly befriend, he'll find himself rewarded with a somewhat suspicious half-smirk. ]
--battles. This is your first time seeing them?
yess good
Yes that is...correct. I have not...seen anything quite like this before.
no subject
--often?
[ Yeah, the line sounds weird even when she asks it. ]
no subject
I do not like the fighting options they make you choose... [ so no he doesn't play often. ]
But it is a way to earn more money for the apartment so...I will do whatever is needed to help Haru-san and the others.
