Thread: The Ikiroh Region! HELP NEEDED

Welcome To the Ikiroh Region!

Home to many bright and budding trainers! The terrain of this land is marked with the blood, sweat, and effort put in over 1000 years ago by the Solstice Trio; Dusreign, Lunareign, and Twiilore; the revered creators of the entire Ikiroh Region! These legendary colossus's emboying Strength, Valiance, and Intelligence all came under one dark sky; effectively creating the Sun, Moon, and all that balance it between. Under the light of the sun and moon, they forged the very lands in which the people of Ikiroh walk on today; their names forever immortalized within history!

------------
The Ikiroh Region will be the setting for my story; POKEMON: Ikiroh Chapter.

The Ikiroh Region is a large landmass consisting of 12 islands; interconnected by long bridges, railways, waterways, and underground passages. In these many places lie not only the eight Gym Leaders; but also the Elite Four and Champion.

There are numerous landmark throughout the region; all embodying some sort of deep secret and past.

Firstly, I would just like to congratulate you for having a Dark type gym leader. And I love your opening title, I need to make one myself.

Secondly, I, like you, have been busily creating a region (well technically I haven't). I have come to tell you that you can use as many pokemon as you want. There are a few that you cant really use but you'll figure that out.

I also give you some advice: try not to copy everything that has been done before. I noticed that your trio of friends closely resembles every trio from the anime and I can already see the nearly-last chapters in the Pokemon League semi-final when Serah beats Jellal despite him being the better trainer. Try to add something new to the mix and it will be fun to read as well as write.

Thank you ^^ Darius was sort of hard to come up with, though :/ And thank you also! I've actually read up on the Rikken region, and I wanted to thank you DEEPLY. You actually INSPIRED me to do this, cause lets face it, Rikken is AWESOME XD (Torpedolf and Velociraptor are my fave, lol)

Oh yes, as stated above, I know MUCH about your Region. I just haven't posted since I won't be much help other than giving character designs :/ However, I do not understand the second one: Which Pokemon do you mean I can't use?

Hmm... well, we haven't had a BOY into contests and ABSOLUTE beauty on a team. And Aaron IS probably just another version of Brock v_v;; So, should I change him to a guy whose just starting out and hates Pokemon?

Thanks, I appreciate that. It actually Velocirock but I'll allow it. And I aim to please.

It's mainly Volhare, Jumflame and Ventish. They were originally made by Jabberwocky....I think...for part of his Takara region. What I meant was if you were going to use them, just remember to credit him.

We've had Drew, even though he wasn't part of the main cast. But I think you don't really need a person like Brock. Anyone can use a Super Potion. I like the idea about someone who starts out hating pokemon. It's sort of like an idea I got rid of in my original idea; the main character starts off her journey WITH her rival and they travel a bit but eventually they clash too badly and they break up into 2 groups where the main character meets up with another/2 other people.
