    Post  Jet Fri Dec 11, 2020 10:34 pm

    So it has been a while since anyone except Lillie has posted on this site, and I dunno if anyone still visits this place anymore, with that in mind, I am going to post summarize of my Pokemon Tabletop United RPG (think of it as Pokemon Dungeons and Dragons) here as a record keeping, and to show there is at least some movement on this site. With that in mind, any comments or questions on the topic I would also gladly try to help with, with that said my current group is full so I can't take on any more players, but if you are interested in either what is happening, the system as a whole or anything in relation to the Pokemon Tabletop United System, I will try to give what I can and help out with answering the questions. We meet roughly every other week so that is my time frame for posting updates. With that said this whole thing has been going on since pretty much the start of the Pandemic so I have alot of catching up to do, plus a summary of key players:

    Sessions 3-5 The Black Tyranitar Arc

    The party was invited to train under Paige at the New Haven Ski Resort, using DICE's Lodge as a base, the festivities began with Jasmine having a Battle with Avery
    Fletchling vs Starly with Avery and Starly coming out on top
    With this the party was sent on their training mission where they waived through the snow, getting some Pokemon in the process
    Gwen got an Alolan Sandsrew
    Jasmine got a Cubchoo
    Priscilla got a Snorunt
    Eventually the group got the items and returned for the night
    As the group rested for the night, they were awoken by a Hyper Beam ripping the Lodge in half

    The party and Avery quickly awoke from the situation, quickly spotting their attacker, an overly large, monstrous black Tyranitar and took the heavily injured Paige by Dog Sled to the main ski hill
    Completely out matched, the party did what they could to keep the Tyranitar off their trail just long enough for them to get towards the ski hill proper and within the comfort of others. When the party managed to get towards other skiers the Black Tyranitar and was returned to it's Pokeball

    At This point the party tried to relax, but slowly began to unravel the mystery that was the black Tyranitar, learning it wasn't the first time this beast appeared, the group asked around, getting information from the Injured Paige, Priscilla's brother Milliardo and Electra's sister Nikola, the group managed to learn this wasn't the first time this Pokemon was out, and that roughly 10 years ago, a group of 6 trainers worked together to take the creature down, though despite that the evil held by the Pokemon is said to be so strong that it leaks out of the very Pokeball used to hold it. With all the information they gathered they gave it to Police and Dice and tried to and successfully returned to a normal life before the Pokemon League season began

    On their search the trainers came across Team Future, the second villainous team of the group, who used their Sound type Pokemon to try to stop the players from catching the Thievel

    10-12 Meteor Hill
    The party decided to leave Clay Caverns and head towards Brighton, heading through Route 9
    The Group met a rancher, Dakota, who was chasing after some Tunikian Skiddo (Grass/Rock Types), and together, the group managed to track them down
    Jasmine caught a Yamper, Sal caught a Yungoos, and Priscilla caught a Galarian Farfetch'd
    At night the group witnessed a Meteor Crash into the earth, where a Beheyeem and his minions attacked the party, only to be saved by an Accelgor, which managed to scare the Pokemon off. 
    The trainer's met the Accelgor's trainer, Tunik Elite Four Member Sect who suggested that the Pokemon was likely going to Meteor Hill, since a large collection of Pokemon are found there

    The next day, the party are distracted by a hang gliding woman and her Skarmory, this woman, Mal, is accompanied by a boy the group helped back at the village, Wes
    The Pair tell them about an upcoming Pokemon Ringer contest in Brighton.
    The group hear word of an abandoned theatre in the area, that Mal and Wes want to investigate, so the group pal along
    They encounter a woman named Victoria and her Gothitas, in this abandoned theatre, who welcomes them in but seems very off when they first encounter her
    The group investigates the area to learn Victoria's story, where she apparently lost her daughter (Chess) and husband in a scientific explosion that happened in Fuebarasu city, her keeping herself here to wallow in her own misery. The party puts the pieces together and tries to help her out, while Mal and Wes reveal themselves to be members of Team Relic, the second villainous team of the region, and try to recruit Victoria to help them.
    In the end the party wins, defeating the Pair of Team Relic Trainers
    A group of Gothita leave with them

    Upon arriving in Brighton, a large chunk of the town have been taken over by aliens, including a couple of Elite Trainers, with Beheeyem becoming a big threat. Sect keeps back the swarm of trainers (easier then normal considering the Alien's lack of understanding of the Pokemon they are using) while the Party went up Meteor Hill to take on the Beheeyem.
    Along the way, Beheeyem encourages the wild Pokemon to stop them, so they fight their way through, along the way Priscilla catches a Buneary
    At the top there is a final struggle between Beheeyem and the Party, with Sal using his quick wits, he catches Elgyem and Staryu in Beheeyem's rank to reduce it's number, eventually lowering it's health enough to capture it to prevent it from acting out again
    Sect offers to take it from them, but in the end Sal decides to keep ahold of it for himself

    15-16 Marshtop Road
    The party made their way to the next gym town, however, instantly coming across a abandoned Groyvle that was abandoned by one of their classmates, Fern Jasmine added the member to her team, though it took a bit in order to do it. There seemed to be a mutation in this Pokémon preventing it from Mega Evolving 

    The Party then came across a girl who seemed to be on the run from a group called Team Future, however this group seemed to behave differently, they seemed to have access to Pokemon not found within the world, though the party managed to defeat the Gas and Sound type Pokemon, they were given a disc from the girl warning of Team Future's threat. Before she could be brought to safety her and her pursuers disappeared 
    Taking the disc to the Poison Gym, he opened the disc to reveal that the girl was from an alternate timeline where Team Future had complete control over the region, where many members of the Pokemon League, including himself had joined the organization allowing for their control of the region

    17-19 - Team Future Raid
    The Party met with a large group of trainers, including their rivals, some of their old classmates and other trainers, and the Poison Gym Trainers and began preparing for and executing the raid on Team Future's base. The group successfully broke through their defensive Magneton and got into the base, with groups splitting off, with the party being aided by one of the gym trainers as a guide. They had successfully defeated one of the Admins, who was using a Gas type Torkoal, however, it was clear that the Gas and Sound types used by Team Future used were weaker then their other dimensional Counterparts

    Next they charged in and dealt with one of their scientists the individual responsible for the creation of the Gas and Sound Types. After that they proceeded to take on another scientist, who was studying portals to Ultra Space, and in the process, a Poipole was obtained left behind by the scientist, one falling into Sal's hands and another falling into Venam's. During the combat, Priscilla's Larvesta was sucked into a portal being corrupted and changed into a Dark/Poison Larvesta. As they were running to another room, the Black Tyranitar made an attack tearing apart the base, and Team Relic took the opportunity to storm the base as welll

    Next was a battle with a person who created Pokemon, who was already trying to make an escape as the base was under attack, the group successfully defeated him and in his room, added to her Priscilla's Party, was a Type: Null. Afterwards, the group went to the basement, where they found a hypnotist working for Team Future, who manipulated the minds of the young to fall in line to Team Future's plan, including a mind controlled Chess. The party began to have a showdown between themselves and the mind controlled kids only to be interrupted by Team Relic, who used the opportunity to kidnap all those around looking for a child capable of igniting both the Bonded Pokemon and Mega Evolution without a Mega Stone, leaving what was once a group of 30 attackers, down to 8, Our 4 heroes, Miguel Kastle, Venam Garcia, Hardy Rockwell and Avery Castillo
