[[ Usually when characters make discoveries like these, I prefer to give them the opportunity to raise them with the group however their character would like. However, if it's important information, I'll make sure to make it available IC for everyone if the discoverer isn't able to bring it up...

Welcome to the forums! Those are some fine favorite species you have, there. Sike Saner's a big glalie fan as well, and it's always neat to see another one. Good luck with your story--if you let me know the kinds of stories you like to read, I'd be happy to give you some recommendations...

I honestly don't know that I have much in the way of predictions or hopes at this point, with how little information we've gotten so far. Surprise me, GameFreak! Do something crazy! In a more practical vein, assuming they're doing another open-world game, I do hope they improve the...

But somehow, the curse didn't want to leave Bellamy's lips. It was as though the word had gotten caught in her throat somehow. No matter how she tried, she couldn't make herself say it. When Bellamy extended her awareness out across the garden, she'd find it teeming with life. The dense hedges...

One-Shot Contest: Professional Interest It takes all kinds of people to make the Pokéworld tick: Pokécenter nurse, berry farmer, Pelipper Postalworker, TM designer, and many more besides! Despite this, most fics feature characters who are trainers (if it's a world with trainers) or members of a...

The statue and seats were as they appeared; pristine white stone. The ground around the seats was covered in footprints of all sizes and descriptions, but around the statue itself, they were largely the same, small and almost perfectly round. None of the footprints looked particularly fresh...

The kricketot jumped in surprise at Jo-Jo's shout. The bug gave the floatzel a reproachful look... ...but answered Ichiro's question anyway. If we're loud, Meloetta may never want to come back.

There wasn't a great deal more to see nearby that the group hadn't already observed. A little farther down the path the group had arrived on, the garden opened up into a large central area with tiered stone seats arranged in a ring around a central statue, perhaps the largest in the garden. It...

The squawkabilly's emotions were neither subtle nor complex: they felt strongly of fear. The flock flew up into a tall line of manicured conifers and disappeared into the needles. Quietly--which was quite unusual for squawkabilly. The whole garden was quiet, although waiting, listening closely...

For an accomplished predator like Inari, it wouldn't be too hard to identify the darting shapes. They were bird pokémon, definitely; if Inari was familiar with the species, he'd be able to recognize them as squawkabilly. Rather than preparing to attack, the flock appeared to be fleeing from the...

Kupara chuckled. "I don't know what awaits you in Meloetta's realm. I would imagine that even if you found yourself in a situation where you felt you needed to sing, or dance, Meloetta would appreciate earnest effort more than the results. Don't be embarrassed! And lean on your companions for...

Kupara watched with approval while people got to know each other and some of the pokémon even began to spar. That was just what she'd been hoping to see. As long as they could work together, there was no doubt they'd be able to overcome a corrupted Meloetta. "Welcome, Zevya," Kupara said as the...

Kupara tapped a claw against the ground pensively. "I'm afraid I've never seen Meloetta battle myself. But from what I've heard... When they're in their singing form, they attack with their voice! That probably means a lot of special attacks from a distance. When they switch to their dancing...

[[ Just as an FYI, Tetra's playing Clink, so if your character is interacting with him rather than Kupara, she's who'll be writing your response! I didn't miss/ignore you. ]] Kupara raised a paw and waved cheerfully to the gathered onlookers. "Hello, Jo-Jo! And Raiki and Ichiro! !olleH Hello!"...

Kupara bobbed her head. "Ah, yes! Very practical! Meloetta is a legend who loves music and dance. They have two forms they can switch between at will. One is normal and fighting, and the other is normal and psychic."

And the game begins! The gameplay thread is available here; however, signups will remain open throughout the weekend, up until the mission proper begins.

Across the multiverse, a call goes out. It isn't a proper voice, but more of an idea whispering at the back of listeners' minds: *Help me.* There will be a journey to somewhere far-off--perhaps a world unlike anything the listener can even imagine. There will be danger, and struggle, but the...

I think anything outside of standard trainer/guild member counts, but I can't guarantee how judges will interpret the theme.

It's almost time for our yearly one-shot contest! Before anyone can make with the writing, though, we need to decide what we'll be writing about! As usual, we have a slate of potential contest themes selected by the community for you to vote on. You can choose up to two! If you aren't familiar...
