We Need Your Help!
We actually have two projects we need help for, and they're both related, so I'll go over them one at a time. First, as most of you know, the new site is going to feature a full-fleged PokeDex. To make the process of building the dex entries either, our local code monkey MechanicalMonarch has created a brilliant program that practically does the job for us. One of the most remarkable features of the dex entry builder is its learnset creator; all you have to do is input the name and level of the move, and the program takes care of the rest. However, this requires.... Read More

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!

One Matzah Short of a Royal Flush

So, how were the awards? I had to go to an absolutely fabulous party (I'm picking stuff up from TMM; did you know he's a fashion designer? He's feeling fat – and sassy!), but I heard they were a blast! Anyway, I'm glad you guys enjoyed them, and hopefully I'll be around next year!

Oh, right, you guys came here for soma stuff. And rightfully so; it's New Years! We're doing this old-school-WU style. No fancy formatting, nothing. LET'S DO THIS!!!



It's a Promo! FOR TWENTY FOUR HOURS!!!

That's right! For the next twenty four hours, you'll be able to claim your own, exclusive, one-of-a-kind… wait, what exactly are they going to be claiming, Novoni?
Quote:
 
The Aquatic Pokémon Research Center, located on a small island between Zeralis and Amaya, recently discovered a rare subspecies of Lapras thought to be long-extinct. A few of these species were captured, bred, and raised for observations, but now in order to make room for other Pokémon, the Center is hosting a limited giveaway of these 'Ancient Lapras'. These Lapras are just like their more familiar brethren save for a few different moves they have mastered and their less pleasant personalities.

:ancientlapras:
Lvl 5 :genderhere:
Ability: Hydration
Moves: Aqua Jet, Ice Fang, Ancientpower, Iron Head, Sing, Growl, Mist, Water Gun, Confuse Ray, Ice Shard
Exp: 0
Happiness: 70

Oh, right! Thanks, Novi! To claim it, check out the promo thread here:

http://orangeislands.net/topic/8602789/1/

Triple Art BONANZA!!!

You heard right! We have not one, not two, not seven, but three new pieces of art to show off! First, from Chaos Shadow, it's Zebrite!

Next, from Phoenixsong, it's Zebrite's evolution…

… Nevrimore? Wait, that can't be right! Hold on… oh! Here it is, drawn once again by Chaos Shadow!:

Oh wait, there's one more? Let's take a look...

OH GOD WHAT IS THAT?! OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!



Tri-Event Smackdown!

And, last but not least, a little story!
Quote:
 
On the island of Ishmadal, the Board of Tourism was finishing their final preparations. The castle had been cleaned and prepared – well, the garden out front had been. Everyone was still too afraid to step foot inside. That's why they were opening it to the public!

A rather round, plump man sitting at the head of the long table in the board room was going over a slip of paper. He thought for a moment, and then stamped it with a rubber stamper in his pocket.

"Alright!" he said. "Time to open!"


Many miles away, in Zeralis, Tajiro stood at the mouth of the Abyss. His cell phone buzzed in his hand, and he opened it to see a text message. "It has begun."

Tajiro laughed. This soon? Oh well, he was ready. "Good. Send the word," he replied.

This should be interesting.

For those of you who aren't skilled in the way of inference, that means that it's time for the events to begin! Please note that the Tournament is still in the qualifying round, so those of you participating needn't worry.

For everyone entered in the other events, this is the time to get ready! Post in your current RPG adventures with any last-minute team changes, and a mod will be around to process them and to close your adventure. You can also use any of the Plaza facilities. If you're in the Abyss event, you can start now! If you're in the Castle event, you'll have to hold on for a day or two. But it'll be worth it, trust me!

See you all in the Castle/Abyss!


That's about it for this New Years Post. I know it's not quite as awesome as last years, but the awesomeness will come in due time! Until then, Happy New Years everyone!

To be normal is to be perfect. To be perfect is to be inhuman.

Woo-hoo Happy New Year! Art equals awesome, and Wapachu is the reason those Lapras were thought to be extinct.

NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!

Of course the event had to start on New Years.

Well, a really iffy dial-up connection will have to support me down here in Maryland until I can get back home Saturday. Still, if my sister hogs the laptop....

....well, Happy New Year's regardless. maybe I'll actually get an Orb this year....
