RULES

How to Join & Apply

  • DISCLAIMER  This format for rules is inspired by contemplate/pixels’ way of sorting their rules in their RPs, and some of their rules. A mobile-friendly and easier to read rule list is here.
     
  • RESERVATIONS  Before anything, please make sure to read through the information docs of the RP (located in room “nav”), especially if you have never played Pokemon Legends: Arceus before. Favourite the RP before reserving your character. Your reservation will last for 48 hours before your FC will be put up for grabs, but I won’t be super harsh on you unless someone else is applying for that FC or spot. Please make sure to follow the comment format below, or else your reservation will not go through.

     FC Name: ie. Byun Baekhyun
     FC Group/Occupation: ie. EXO
     FC D.O.B & Age: ie. May 6th, 1992 & 31
     OC Name: ie. Daimon

     
  • APPLICATION  When applying for your character, make sure to follow our official application format.

    「 OOC/Mun Information 」
    FC Name: ie. Byun Baekhyun
    FC Group/Occupation: ie. EXO
    FC D.O.B & Age: ie. May 6th, 1992 & 31
    Timezone: GMT format only ie. GMT-8
    Password: How many Pokemon can you start with based on your classification/occupation?


    「 IC/Muse Information 」
    OC Name: ie. Daimon
    Classification: ie. Survey Corps, Diamond Clan, Medical Corps, etc.
    Occupation: Only applicable if applying for a special spot, like Warden, or if you are a Jubilife Citizen.
    Starter Pokemon: Please read the Classifications/Occupations doc to know your limitations on what you can start with depending on your classification. This is also where you will list out the Pokemon you have (ie. Bulbasaur, Pidgey, Gengar, etc.)
    Short Background: 2-3 sentences, preferably. You can write as much as you want here just in case you wanna word dump it here and then paste on your profile later. This can be written as bullet points.

     

Faceclaims & Muse Creation

  • MUSE AGES  You are allowed to change your muse’s ages by 3 years from their faceclaim’s age, up or down, so long as you are not making your muse younger than 20 years old.
     
  • RESTRICTIONS  To see what FCs are taken and which are available, please look at our “Faceclaims” room and check there. This is also where availability on Wardens and other important roles will be. If you are stumped on a FC, then you an also check out our “Wanted” room. Here are some restrictions and allowances when it comes to what FC you can choose:
    • Your FC must be 20+ internationally.
    • Please do not RP FCs that have stated they do not want to be RPed, or are deceased .
    • We allow any nationality for FCs, but make sure they make sense for this world and time (ie. Ariana Grande is not a native-born Hisuian, with family who has been there for generations. She can be an immigrant/visitor, but not a native. If you are unsure what each region in Pokemon exists, check out our “Locations” tab).
    • Your FC has to have over 1m followers on whatever platform they are on, and if they will be difficult to search, please send a link to their social media site.
       
  • ADDITIONAL MUSES As of right now, we will be allowing up to 4 muses for each user. Your second muse will require an upvote, and any additional character requirements can be viewed in the “Requests” room. We ask you to only have as many muses as you can handle.
     

Etiquette & Roleplaying

  • DISCLAIMER OOC drama is prohibited, I do not have the time or energy to be dealing with your own personal problems with other characters. If any situations occur within the RP, all parties will be kicked out. IC drama is okay, so long as it is consensual between all parties involved. Make sure to communicate with your partners, folks!
     
  • IC & OOC BONDING  Make sure you understand that IC and OOC are different, and they are to be kept separate. Don’t RP in OOC spaces, and, we understand how talking about IC plots and such in OOC rooms can be fun, but make sure to include everyone in the RP. If you are suspected of bubble RPing or you are bubble RPing, then you will be given a warning. Treat everyone with respect, even if y’all have problems outside of the RP, don’t make everyone uncomfortable and keep it civil.
     
  • MATURE CONTENT  Do not in non-rated spaces, especially IC chats, and keep it for PMs, walls, or rated rooms like houses and such. Due to the nature of this RP, I will be prohibiting graphic violence enacted on Pokemon, outside of battles because you know, lol. Basically, I don’t want to see you writing very graphic ways in which a Scyther chopped up Karen’s Snorlax, okay? Otherwise, mature plots are welcomed but make sure you put trigger and content warnings before the post. Our safe phrase is “pay for my bike”. Make sure consent is clear and communicated between all parties involved when RPing mature content, as well as keeping it out of public spaces that are not rated.
     
  • PROFILES & INFO  You will have 24 hours to put a DP on your character before you will be kicked from the RP. After I send out a welcome message to you, you will have a full week to put up a profile for your character that includes: basic info, a background, and OOC information. It is more so that people can have an easier time plotting with you, so I won’t be a stickler on it if you already have a lot of threads going on.
     
  • LEAVING & BEING KICKED  If you plan on leaving the RP, please PM one of the ADMIN characters (Cyllene, Professor Laventon, or Kamado) to tell us you are leaving. If you comment on the RP or leave without telling us, you will be banned from the RP and your character will be deleted. I will also be doing this if you violate any of our rules.

Activity & Participation

  • DISCLAIMER This is a slow-paced RP so I won’t be on your about activity but please, don’t take it for granted and hog faceclaims and other important roles. Just let me know if you’re busy rn and I’ll understand that you still wanna be here.
     
  • INACTIVITY  Inactivity is set to 14 days, but will only go off if you post on a wall or in a IC room. I won’t kick you out for inactivity if you’re active in the OOC rooms and are plotting and posting connections and all that, but if you go completely silent then I will give you 24 hours after a warning before you’re kicked. Hiatuses aren’t really needed, if you think you can’t sign on to RP for a long time, then let me know and I won’t kick you, but don’t take advantage of this.
INFORMATION

Part I

SUMMARY

300 years ago, the Poke-Ball had been invented by Professor Laventon, and his invention was first used by the Galaxy Team Expedition in their base in the region of Hisui. The Galaxy Team Expedition had been exploring areas around the land of Hisui to learn more about the Pokemon that resided there, as well as support local settlements in issues relating to Pokemon and otherwise.

Recently, there has been a massive storm that has been hovering over Mt. Coronet, the tallest mountain in the region, with an unknown source. While it currently doesn’t affect the population below the mountain, many believe that it is a bad omen that will soon hail down on the people of Hisui, perhaps a message of calamity from the Almighty Sinnoh itself…

Part II

NAMING RULES
Despite this RP being set in a fantasy version of Japan, you do not need to have a Japanese name for your muse. We understand many of you will join as Korean FCs or non-Japanese FCs, so you are free to name your muse whatever you please. Legends: Arceus has a variety of names, such as Akari/Rei, Cyllene, Kamado, Volo, Adaman, Irida, among others.

Your character will only have a given name and no surname. This will hopefully encourage you to try out new names or look at different names from different places. In the game, all the characters are only referred to by a given name, so you will only need your given name in this RP.
HOW POKEMON WORK
Unfortunately, I would love to do a very in depth and interesting way you can catch Pokemon, but I do not have the time for that nor do I have the brain.

At most, you can have six Pokemon. This amount is limited to Galaxy Team Expedition members. You are free to choose any Pokemon on the Hisui Pokedex, but we will make a few exceptions if your character is from a different area and they have one Pokemon from their home. Please don’t abuse this.

More Pokemon classifications and limitations are in the Classifications/Occupations doc.

In this life, you will meet with both admiration and abuse from others. How others choose to view you is a choice only they can make. You cannot make it for them. All that truly matters is that you hold firm to your own values.

gonna put common faq and common things that i need to clear up here so u can read it.

ー please check the hisuian dex (https://www.serebii.net/legendsarceus/hisuipokedex.shtml) before thinking about your team. the gingko guild can have their entire team be from places that aren't hisui, but other classifications can only have one, and the clan members can't have any, for lore reasons.
ー clan members can have 4 pokemon and only one of them can be in their final evolution (for now). this includes eevees but does not include pokemon like buneary or seviper. if you are a warden, your noble pokemon is not part of your party, so they do not count.
ー only the galaxy team captains are exempted from the ranking system if they want. all other members must be part of it.
ー we do not allow shinies. forgot about this in the rules so i'll put it here for now.
