That's... inconvenient. I mean, Trainers and Snaggers are practically the same class! You sure she can't just up and decide to dual-class?

Or maybe I could make her a Trainer/Snagger from the get-go, but not take advantage of any of the Trainer upgrades until after Mission 4. I just don't want to ruin your surprise, y'know?

You're a sick, sick man.

This is going to be so fun.

Oh, he already has a Water/Dark type in Crawdaunt.

Well, I guess I should think up an evolution for Starmie. ...Starwii?

Or, you could come up with Xth-level Eeveelutions for all the members of the Thirteen Eevee Threat.

I mean, those are their favorite pokemon, makes sense those would be the ones to evolve.

Or you could evolve Lanturn. That one has a nifty dual type, it could stand to have an evolution that's actually, y'know, useful.

AB: I assume that in the event that someone has multiple of these Actions from different classes, they can still only select one of these for the turn, not do one of each. Right? (Like in my case when presumably Renny would have by level 15... 3 Trainer Action, 1 Pokebrid Action and 4 Slayer actions (assuming Renny gets one every 2 levels like trainers do.)

Got another wild conjecture here!

I'm starting to get the feeling that Whitney might end up being one of the new 13 Eevee Trainers in the future (Rachel wasn't one before and now she is the Steel type after Rayleen became the dragon type instead). She already has an all-bug team that she stole from the Dark. Yes, she's missing the Eevee evolution, but who knows if she might get one? Of course, if she does get one where would it come from and what happened to the original Bug type eevee member? >_> It's entirely possible that not all the Eevee trainers we'll find decide to turn good like the ones who are with us are. Maybe Whitney can snag the Bug Eevee off that one.

As for which pokemon in her team to replace... well, Shedninja would suck in an RP where there are more than one foes, and only one foe would need to have a single super effective move or something like Leech Seed or Sandstorm or Hail to knock it out in one hit. That one would be the best choice to evict.

Dracorion · 08-27-2010, 08:04 PM

Actually, all the members of the Thirteen Eevee Threat are accounted for. I believe AB said a long while back the last three would join during the beach mission.

The three Eevee trainers missing are Andora the Fighting type Eevee trainer, Alphonsine the Flying type Eevee Trainer, and Terrance the Poison type Eevee Trainer.

And, of course, there's Darcen, who is currently suffering from a rather severe case of deadness. So the only Eevee trainer really missing is Normal type.

Menarker · 08-27-2010, 08:48 PM

Oh, right. ^^; Thirteen Eevee threat.

I am kinda in a stupor. ^^; I was mentally thinking that there would eventually be an eevee evolution for every type and a trainer for it for total of 17 elements if you don't count Ruin type.

Of course, it's entirely possible that someone or some NPCs who was never part of the 13 Eevee group but actually follows the same setup might exist. It's not like everyone automatically gravitate toward each other instinctively in order to form the club. They might even be antagonists for future missions. Who knows?

Of course, that's entirely up to AB. :3

Although, technically, they aren't the 13 Eevee anymore now that Darcen is dead. At least with Lucifier dying, the pokemons got passed to Rayleen who passed hers to Rachel. All of Darcen's pokemon died along with him. Thus making them 12.

In order to be regain the title of 13 Eevee Threat, someone would have to join with the entire team of the same pokemon type and the eevee evolution. The only one who could fits this without making up an entirely new NPC is Whitney if she got the eevee evolution for bug type.
Alternatively, a new NPC with normal, ground, ghost or rock type would work too.

Dracorion · 08-27-2010, 09:06 PM

If there was a Bug-type Eeveelution, they'd have to become the Fourteen Eevee Force to accomodate. They'd still need a Normal-type trainer, see?

Bard The 5th LW · 08-27-2010, 10:52 PM

IF Rayleen was a member of the Thirteen Evee Threat before they became the Evil Evee Eight, how come she didn't seem to show much recognition of them early on? (this has probably been explained and I just missed it)

She doesn't at all seem to be angry at Charlotte for shooting a former Colleague, nor upset about the death of the Normal Trainer whose name escapes me at the moment.

Dracorion · 08-27-2010, 11:13 PM

1) AB hadn't decided at the time.

2) They didn't exactly part on the best of terms.

3) Charlotte probably did get a severe talking-to on shooting people from Rayleen, after the mission.

4) Rayleen was pretty much keeping her entire past a secret at the time, only deciding to move on during Renny's sidequest. And even then, who told us that Rayleen was part of the Thirteen Eevee Threat? Shannon.

Bard The 5th LW · 08-27-2010, 11:22 PM

Thanks, that was just sort of bothering me in the back of my head.

A third party source will likely reveal Charlotte's origins in a similar way.

Astral Harmony · 08-28-2010, 01:04 AM

I'm good with the idea of Xth level Eeveelutions. I'm thinking instead of the -eon thing they've got going on, their names change to -kai. Joltkai, Vaporkai, Flarkai, all that nonsense.

If I thought I could get away with it, I'd have you guys learn Actions for only your primary class, despite whether you put 10 ranks into it or not. You'd just learn them as you put ranks in a different class.

The fact is that I didn't really have Rayleen set for anything personal until that Pulverot put her in the hospital. Then wham, bam, whoosh, suddenly she's got Registeel and five other Steel types, a mother in a coma (well, used to be in a coma), a dead fiancee and father, unrequited feelings for her butler Dormond, and all that. She was going to be a by-the-books head bitch in charge, but then I go off on a tangent and start putting more into her.

It happens a lot. Lola didn't have a sister until I decided that Harliette was her sister right as the Phantomere battle kicked off. This RP is full of split-second on-the-spot decisions.

Like Moon's unwanted harem.

And Irene's S&M-loving bodyguard.

And Pierce's one night stand with Shizuka.

Obviously, I need to think about a few of these more thoroughly./joking

Dracorion · 08-28-2010, 01:12 AM

Like that thing I joked about over PMs that you said wouldn't happen but then you decided it would?
