Weather: Sunny

Announcement:
Pokemon Needed: Tell me what pokemon you would like to see for next month's shop!
Don't Forget: Claim your monthly Packages!

Okay, every thread will need one of these posts. Here it is and out of the way.

1) The rules that Ernya has set for the forum here are ABSOLUTE! Obey her rules over any of mine.
2) Respect everyone in the thread. I will likely need help in keeping things going. Those I appoint for having authority are people I trust to act with honor.
3) Mules are allowed to have their own pokemon if you wish. Yes, you may cross train Pokemon on accounts, as long as you can remember which info goes where.
4) Put your pokemon information and credit score in quotes! Your chatter can be posted after the quoted information.
5) While the few shop threads will only use credits, what arrangements that are user to user are the user's in question responsibility.
6) Roleplay is not a requirement, but if you choose to play in the thread set up, the owner's wishes must be obeyed. You will find the link in Beginner's Info.
7) To level your pokemon, you MUST contribute in some way to the conversation of the thread.

Checking back is recommended. I may say something and be wrong in a question related to the system of the thread. The first person that catches a change or something that wasn't posted here within a day or two of its release gets a Pokémon of their choice when they point it out to me.

Note: I reserve the right to edit these rules as the need fits.

5 credits:
Poke balls
*** Since we do not know when Wild Pokémon will appear, if you do not have a supply of balls to throw, we can deduct it from your total. This is no problem, as long as it is noted in the post.

25 Credits:
* Evolution related stones or items

* Rare Candy: Levels a Pokemon, BUT the level doesn't count towards the Pokemon Affection Score. Keep notes. (Adds 2k to experience + 10 Credits for level up!)

* TM Stock: Rollout, Mimic, Ancient Power, Ancient Voice, Sunny Day, Double Hit,
(If there are any other form changing or evolutionary moves and their not listed as an available TM, please notify me. Reward: That specific TM)

*Heart Scales: These items you can purchase to give to your Pokémon to raise its Happiness Meter by one, instead of remembering a move that won't be forgotten since that restriction does not apply. Rank of 10 Affection required to evolve.
Note: If you use a heart scale, be sure to keep a note of how many you have purchased and used where you can easily find it.

25 Credits: Any other item to be held by a pokemon.
(May put limits on specific items if need be, but for now, lets see how this goes. If I do, I will refund credits per adjustment made.)

Pokemon attained in these shops unless specified will always start off at LV:5 with 8k experience.

50 Credits:
Ditto

100 Credits:
Cyndaquil
Chikorita
Totodile
Eevee
The above Pokémon will be constantly here. You will get to customize each one you purchase through here. (Shiny or Regular)

Pokemon Eggs: 100
10 Posts to hatch an egg.
First three eggs are up to you to decide what they are, after that, they are random pokemon.
You may post an egg in the same post as a Pokemon, one at a time.

Poke'Voucher: Redeem this and be allowed to purchase one pokemon as if you had spent 100 credits.

250 Credits:
Trading Bot
~~~ One Time Use: Allows you to evolve a Trade Only Pokémon as if it were traded to another user. Does not Waiver the need for special items if the Pokémon needs it to evolve when traded.

Note: There may be no sane way for me to be able to keep up with who has how many credits. Being as no actual items or gold are being exchanged, you the user will be trusted with this until proven guilty. After all, credits are just part of the game, and no actual Ernya items are being exchanged in this manner.

Simple, quote the post and say Username throws a Pokeball at the wild ______.

Need to know:
1) The first one to quote and post is the post that catches it.

2) The Pokemon are available to catch for 24 hours after the post has made. Any longer and the pokemon would be considered ran away.

3) One Pokemon at a time may be caught per spotted post. If more than one are in one particular post, and you capture one, please wait three hours to give another person a chance to catch it.

4) If in event the person that releases the pokemon doesn't respond in an hour after releasing it, consider the pokemon caught and it's statistics yours to decide on.

Pokemon Affections!

I would like to do my pokemon thread with another detail that may have missed. Being in the actual games, you have to make your pokemon love you. How do you do that on a forum.

Spoil the Pokemon.

In the shop listing, you will find that if you spend 25 credits you can purchase a Heart Scale to give to a Pokemon. When a Pokemon has a rating of 10 or more, you can choose to evolve it on it's next level.

One heart scale increases the pokemon's affection by one rank.

Leveling!
Every level can be considered equivalent to purchasing a Heart Scale for your pokemon.

Note: It may help to make a note in your storage slots of what pokemon started off at what level.

SPECIAL Condition Evolutions

I am aware that there are special ways to evolve certain Pokémon. While I do not yet know all of them, I will list those ways as I can:

• Show Spoiler

• Glaceon & Leafeon:
  In Game: Level them up around specific locations.
  Here: This will be like the weather environments. Only on weekends and they are not random, except for special occasions. (Like on a holiday, both be available)
  First and Third weekend: Eternal Forest
  Second and Fourth weekend: Snowpoint City Route

  
  

  Feebas to Milotic:
  In Game: Feed Feebas enough high level Poke blocks until it can't eat any more. If it is high enough, it will evolve.
  Here: Lets go with... 20 heart Scales!

  
  

  Pokemon that evolved with Learned moves, the TM required will count as a evolutionary item, thus available in the shops.

  
  

  Wurple to Silcoon-Cascoon:
  In Game: Random, depending on personality at level 7.
  Here: Just pick the evolution that you want.

  
  

  Gligar to Gliscor:
  In Game: Night holding Razor Fang
  Here: Purchase Razor Fang during level your pokemon during a 'Night' Month.

  
  

  Sneazel to Weavile:
  In Game: Night holding Razor Claw
  Here: Purchase Razor Claw during level your pokemon during a 'Night' Month.

  
  

  Burmy to Wormadam:
  In Game: Female LV:20 - Plant Cloak Form: Outside - Sand Cloak Form: Cave - Trash Cloak Form: Building
  Here: Pick one at LV: 20 and we will call it good.

  
  

  Combee to Vespaqueen:
  In Game: Female and 21
  Here: Same

  
  

  Karrablast to Escavalier
  In Game: Trade with Chobomaki
  Here: Trade Bot

  
  

  Shelmet to Accelgor
  In Game: Trade with Kapurumo
  Here: Trade Bot!

  
  

  Nincada to Shedninja
  In Game: Lv: 20 with Empty spot in party
  Here: Level to 20 and call it good.

  
  

  Mantyke to Mantine:
  In Game: Remoraid in Party
  Here: >.> This one and Slowbro is a pest... Well, lets cheat a little and call it an 'evolutionary item' and call it good

  
  

  Magneton:
  In Game: Magnezone is the result of Magneton leveling up in the presence of a special magnetic field that has only been discovered at Mt. Coronet and Electric Rock Cave.
  Here: These locations will be available Wednesdays of every month.

This guide will be updated when I learn about other Pokémon that evolve under special conditions not covered in other posts.

If you learn of one that isn't covered here, please inform me. Reward will be a free set of evolutionary stones or a Trade-Bot.

More Evolutions that I need to put up.

Environmental Elements!

These things are things to keep in mind.

• Show Spoiler

• Time of Day:
  This will be shifting on a Monthly Basis. We use a Day/Night system here. Going by the odd/even numerical system, the time of day will alternate between months.
  
  Odd Numbers are Daytime, Even numbers are Night Time.
  
  As to be expected, certain pokemon that can only be caught or evolved in day/night influences can only be caught during those months.

  
  

  Weather:
  Every third week of the month, there will be a random weather pattern for sure. People with authority in the thread can spring these in random occurances as well.

  
  

  Location Availability:
  Eterna Forest: First and Third weekend of the month
  Snowpoint City: Second and Fourth weekend of the month.
  5th Weekend: BOTH locations available.
  
  Mt. Coronet: Available on Wednesdays!

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Do I have to choose my first evolution stone right away or can I do that later?
A: Well, just make a note that you have a free one to choose, and we will call it good. Don't know what pokemon you will need it for first.

Q: What about pokemon that evolve with certain items? Like, they have to hold it and then level up. Will you be selling the items or have you decided what you will be doing about them yet?
A: This would count as evolutionary item of choice. It is a permanent shop item, purchase it, and when that specific pokemon levels, you can evolve it.

Q: Do you have a sprite resource guide I can look at, or is any pic acceptable.
A: I don't mind, as long as the pic is small what it looks like. But here is a source that I use.
Here is a Natures Guide too.

Q: I know this is Crystal Version Starters, is it only Pokemon up to Crystal?
A: Nope, all Pokemon are found here. If there is one you want to get, tell me and I will put it into the shop considerations for next month.
