There's a pokemon daycare in agate? Are you serious? I can't check now since I'm only allowed to play on the weekends, but if what you tell me is true...*ponders* Oh yeah, and I'm giving Stevenson a Numel. Just to make it even with everyone else but Silver, and I hate having some people with an advantage over others. Plus, numels are my favorite fire pokemon. Besides camerupts.

Yeah... they only take one Pokemon, though. The Name Rater's in that building, too. Of course, we can just pretend they went out of business since XD...
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Neo, I thought I made myself clear when I said "It's much more fun to make you characters do things the hard way" that I did NOT want psychic powers being used much. You're lucky I let you have them at all... Five minutes into the RP is too soon. WAY too soon. But more than that, it bugs me how completely unrealistic that is. You don't just walk up to a random group of people and say, "Hey, guess what? I've got 00ber psychic powers! Am I ALL THAT or what?" I thought you were going to have him try to hide it so he'd fit in as a normal trainer, and then have them come out at some desperate time when he needs to escape to save his life or something. Can you please edit that post or something?
Sorry for the double posting, but no one would notice this if I just editted, so...

Dude....dude. i aggree with everyone else, and, well, that's it. Besides, I don't realy thikn it would be possible to teleport that many people at a time anyway. Not that I'm encouraging it, because I'm not.
Oh, here's another suggestion for limiting psychic 00berness in the rp:
For Want of Secrecy
Neo, due to his incessant need to fit in, will not portray any behavior which reveals him to be a psychokinetic trainer, unless his life or the life of others are at stake. This being said, he can use his powers, but not make it obvious that he has done so. For example, he could still communicate psychicly with his pokemon.
What do you all think?

Opal mentioned the same thing via private messaging... I've got something planned, but I've been waiting for Neo to post. We can't do anything until he either gets to the gym or drops out of the roleplay entirely.

I dunno.....Neo hasn't been around very much as of late. Besides, I think he's put off by us not letting him use 00ber psychic powers anyways....

Good point... and he's obviously been on, since he's been posting in ROM. I'll give him until Tuesday. If he doesn't post in the roleplay or at least post here to show that he's still interested by then, we'll go on without him. Maybe I'll turn him into a rival... heh heh... If he doesn't say anything by Tuesday, you all know who the final boss-type character will be...

*Shifty eyes* Maaaaybe...
...Ok, probably not. If only because I don't want to have 'The Ron' and 'The John' running around. If you're after spoilers, the next one's going to be 'The Jen'. So you were close.
