The Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Meme

Have you ever wondered what life in the world of Pokémon is like? Well, wonder no more, because in this world? You're the Pokémon.



Rules:

-Post your character's name and their canon in the subject line.

-Though in the games you are restricted to certain Pokémon (and their first forms only) to start, in this meme you can be any Pokémon you choose. Make sure you mention what Pokemon they are in your top level, and feel free to elaborate on their appearance or even occupation if you choose!

-This meme takes place majorly in the areas featured in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, but I'm also including features and locations from previous games as well! (I miss Kangaskhan Storage okay don't look at me).

-In Gates to Infinity, a special feature of your Pokémon Paradise is the inclusion of traveling sales 'mon! These Pokemon run their own businesses and provide services that can be useful to adventurers. Feel free to have your character as a proprietor of their own shop or business- Post Town could use more variety, after all!

-Tag around!

-HAVE FUN \o/

Starting prompts

1) Welcome to the World of Pokémon!: You've just woken up and your head aches...you're in the forest somewhere, washed up at the beach, or maybe someone's brought you to their home after finding you comatose somewhere. When you finally come to, you notice you're feeling very oddly, and should you decide to find a puddle or a mirror to check yourself...well, surprise! You're a Pokémon now! ....what? What do you mean you used to be human?

2) Exploring the town: Whether you're non-native or you've lived here all your life, there's plenty in Post Town to check out. Maybe you need to stock up on supplies for at the Kecleon's shop or exchange some of your hard-earned gold for items and other goodies at Cofagrigus' Glorious Gold! Perhaps you found some mysterious chests you'd like Rampardos to break open for you? And once you're done there, you can store your spare items at Kangaskhan Storage for safe keeping, or your money at Persian's Bank. There's also Swanna's Inn and Café for you and your partners to visit after a long day of adventuring.

3)On a mission: Azumarill is up to her ears in requests for help today! Whether it's a Pokemon trapped in a dungeon in need of rescue, a lost item that needs to be found, or a group of rogue Pokemon that need stopping, these Pokemon could use all the help they can get!

If you're having trouble coming up with a situation to play out, I've also come up with some starting scenario prompts to choose from!

Scenario Prompts:

1)Stargazing: You and your partner have been through a lot. It's been a long, hard week of adventuring, and this evening you both finally have the chance to rest from it all. According to Umbreon and Espeon, there's going to be a meteor shower tonight, one that occurs only once every one hundred years. It just so happens that your base is located in the perfect spot to watch them, so why not take advantage of the opportunity?

2)The Pecha Festival: Post Town holds an annual festival that celebrates the Pecha Berry, a versatile and extremely sweet fruit that not only cures poisoning, but is very healthy and delicious! Ms. Swanna has prepared dozens of dishes featuring this berry that will be sold throughout the town, and you might notice that just everyone has decorated their shops in some fashion for the festivities. The Request Boards are closed today (barring emergencies, of course) so kick back and have some fun!

3)Critical Hit!: You and your partner have been adventuring, and something's gone really bad in a hurry. Maybe you two have been cornered by some tough Pokemon you can't get past, or one of you has been seriously injured. Either way, things are looking dire, and you need to get out of there. Fast.

4)I don't want to say goodbye: Your partner used to be human, but now their time in this world is up. They're leaving, and there's nothing that either of you can do about it. You have just a short while before they disappear, so make it count.

5) Make your own!: Come up with your own scenario!

[ His voice quiet, Urianger speaks - letting his googles slip down, letting his eyes filled with darkness and hate to show. ]
I hast come to meet with thou, if thee wast here.
[ He's not scared. He's died before - he's stopped existing. Anything after that does not scare. ]

...

[This is usually the part where he'd scream something like STAY AWAY or GO BACK. Maybe start distorting the area for that extra spooky effect. Gets 'em every time. Heck, if he was really feeling up to it, he'd just start shooting out the Dark Voids and get it over with.

He's just...so caught off guard right now, though.]


Um.

People...people still talk like that?

[wat

He feels like a D&D villain right now. You know, if he knew what D&D was.]

...Ay. 'Tis how ones of my land spoke - 'ere I became an Absol.
[ Gods why do other people speak so weird tho. Urianger doesn't get how they speak at all most of the time - but hey, there were other speech patterns in Eorzea. You just got the one who's the most old school. ]
I've no desire to fight.
newmoonprince: (I don't want to be bad)

[personal profile] newmoonprince 2015-12-12 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
I- Okay...?

[So many questions. Here he thought that way of speaking got lost a long time ago. It's not like he isn't familiar with it, he was there, but wow. Talk about a blast from the past. And "became" an Absol? Last he heard, nothing evolves into an Absol. That's weird, this is weird.]

If you don't want to fight, then you should really just leave. You can't be here, no one should be here.

[ His next words seem to come slowly - perhaps he should try speaking like those of this world. ]
I hath come in search of myth - legend of a Darkness which none awaken from.
[ ...Words fall to myth. It's a little inconvenient, not having lived here since the first Era of this world or so - but he'd best simply. Try his hardest. ]
newmoonprince: (Very scary)

[personal profile] newmoonprince 2015-12-12 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
I-It's true, it's all true.

[The once relaxed, almost chill voice steadily grows more panicked. Looks like he got over that little loop he was thrown into earlier. The corridor begins to shake, distorting near the end of the hall with what can only be described as some sort of powerful energy.]

And if you don't leave, it'll become true for you, too. All you have to do is GO!

[A large BOOM can be heard at the end, as if something exploded down there. And yet, it doesn't sound much like a threat. In fact, he sounds absolutely terrified himself. It's like a warning, a warning with a bit of a tantrum thrown in there for good measure.]

[ An explosion. But there's no fear on the Absols' face - no expression at all. He's done scarier before. ]
'Tis no reason for me to turn my back - for thy may strike as I am fleeing.
...Besides, I am already one with Darkness. Though, I wonder - what tribe powers you? I see no Crystals, sense no Aether.
[ he still uses eorzea logic ]

newmoonprince: (Launching attack)

[personal profile] newmoonprince 2015-12-12 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Nonsense, it's all nonsense this guy is spouting. Darkrai's too far gone into his tantrum to care, he can't concentrate, he just wants this guy gone. The hall rumbles and shakes as a figure suddenly flies down it at amazing speeds. The distortion follows it, the rocky walls jiggle and shake in unnatural ways as he speeds down, eyes glowing a piercing light blue.]

I am darkness.

[And he stops, on the dime, right in front of the Absol, hovering above him and staring him down. There isn't any attack, but a long pair of thin, spindly legs slip from the bottom of his body, daintily making contact with the ground. His arms heave up and down, almost like he's breathing heavily, probably from whatever tantrum he threw back there that caused the explosion. The whisps on his body whip around erratically, as well as his long flowing hair.

He says nothing more after that, just...stares.]

[ There's a deathly silence from Urianger, as he inspects this being. Is it awe? Or is it... disappointment?
When he next speaks, there is a slight shake in his voice. He's having thoughts of his own darkness, of what he would do if he were still Ascian. He would laugh and declare this being a failure of a Primal, as disgusting as Allag creations.

But he doesn't. Instead, he speaks in the same way he always does. ]

I am not of this world. I did not know - and I do not fear. You are a creature of awe.

[ Urianger does not shift. He does, however, slip his goggles back on - a small shard of a Mega Stone attached. ]
