Welcome to the Orange Islands!

We are one of the largest and most active Pokémon TRPGs (Text Role Playing Game) on the net. Not only that, but we boast a huge number of new features and opportunities not available anywhere else. We realize that there are a lot of Pokémon RPGs around, and we know how hard being original can be because of that. However, we strive to make every aspect of our RPG fresh and new, even the basics!
  • Start your own quest in one of the most exciting and unexplored regions: the Orange Islands!
  • Battle your way up to the top just as you would in the games; defeat gym leaders, catch wild Pokémon, and become champion!
  • Build yourself the ultimate team from one of nearly 200 brand new and exclusive Pokémon!
  • Battling isn't the only aspect of the Pokémon world, is it? Explore the world as more than just a trainer; compete in Pokémon Contests, breed your Pokémon to be the best, or go on Ranger missions to save the world!
  • Explore the brand new region of Zeralis, or take a trip down memory lane through any (or all) of the original regions from the games!
  • Is RPing not for you? We also have an ongoing project to expand our dex into one of the largest ever seen. Whether you're a spriter, an artist, or just someone that wants to get rid of some extra free time, this is for you!

So what are you waiting for? The longer you wait, the more you miss out on. Click here to register and start your adventure today!

RPG Mod App Results (look at him twitch!)

Yup, we're pretty prompt about getting out those RPG mod results, aren't we? And no, it has nothing to do with three of you breathing down my neck, and one of you who's been stalking me for the past ten minutes past an intense twitch. That would be absurd.

Anyway, I suppose you want to know what the answers to the questions were, right? Well, if not, then I'm going to ignore you and continue on with my original plan.

What is your opinion on the world pasta crisis?
Technically, this doesn't have a real answer, considering it's an opinion question. I did like some of the answers though (apparently we have a flying meatball monster on the lose). However, it is my opinion that every pizzaria in the world should be required to employ at least three native Italian chefs in order to pass the monthly Tasty-Inspection.

If you were able to write a superhero comic book, and you were required to make the most original (and possibly bizarre) superhero ever created, what would he be? Be specific.
Again, an opinion answer. Many good ones, including one who would literally drive me insane from talking and another that could win the NASCAR championship simply by popping the other player's tires. But what about my superhero, you ask? Well, why should I create a superhero when I already am one?

How does one literally pop a quiz?
Quite the creative answers for this one. One person suggested that I somehow create a particle riff in the air, while another suggested I attach a quiz to a balloon. Nobody, however, suggested that I inflate the paper itself with helium and, for a little added fun, liquid francium (alkaline metals go boom, by the way)!

Are humans most closely related to bears or to kangaroos? Explain.
This one was rather easy, and I was mainly looking for the reasons behind your answers. I don't think anybody favored the kangaroos though, which was depressing. Not more depressing than that girl who got beat up, though.

Oh?
Oh yes? Oh no? Maybe so? Who knows!

Unfortunately, the writing proses were a little bit... lacking.... this time around. I think everyone who applied chose either the two anonymous trainers or the battle between me and Novoni (that Dragonfire vs Dragonfire prose will have to make a reappearance, I suppose). There were, however, a few standouts, and we've (the other admins and I) picked up on it.

As usual, you've most likely already skipped to this section of the application. Oh well, I don't blame you. This whole post is rather suspenseful, isn't it? Anyway, give a warm welcome to our newest moderators (in no particular order)!:

thedude27
Nocturne
Angels & Insects

And unfortunately, I must also announce the second removal of a staff member so far, due to extreme inactiveness, even after warning:

Darklight

[Insect Applause, Cheers, and "WHY DID YOU NOT PICK ME AND MY CHURRO BASED SIDEKICK!??!?!?!?" screams here]

That's all for this time around. Hopefully we'll see even more great applications (there weren't many this time) next time around!

Thanks a bunch. And I hoped me adding names to the anonymous trainers and making the battle brief, blood, and one-sided was balanced out by the rather long prelude.

Never an honest word....

Just wondering if mine got received, it was sent like 5 minutes before the dealine...but anyway, A&I predicted. not really surprised by Nocturne (the surprise was that he actually applied), thedude...bit more surpriding, but I suppos it makes sense. Now I'm just annoyed I wasted hours of time and a page full of prose...oh, well. As usual, there's always next time...whenever that might be.

Crap, just realized, I forgot to include 7 and 8 from the weird questions in my PM...I'd had 7 originally, but then my dad closed the window I'd had it in (forgot to save, gah), and I suppose I just skipped over it. Shame, because I had a sweet answer about pouring soda on a quiz, and it even included referemces to superhuman speed :(

They're not 'slaves, so to speak. They are more of.... completely obedient workers who will do exactly what I say when I say it without pay or compensation.

In other news, I've fixed the problem with A&I's username. Apparently using a & in your username alters the source code of your name to include some special HTML, which I recovered in the Page Source and stuck in there.

In a nutshell, everything's working fine now.

Byo, you didn't have to be so forward in mentioning that in here. You could've been more vague, and let him figure it out. Anyway, I'm on spring vacation now and can help with the updates, when I'm not sleeping, playing my guitar, or various recreational activities.

Yes because we all know how well insulting someone with misspelled word and a non-related adjective really clears up situations. Is it really that hard to believe someone's interest will shift over time? Grow up.

Also, I believe I have much more insight into this situation than you do, Byo, considering I have at least conversed with every moderator here quite a few times, whether it be in my threads or in PM. And, ironically enough, you're quite wrong about most of the reasons he wasn't accepted. Arrogance achieves nothing, remember that.

Anyway, back on topic now (editing out the comment, by the way).
