I was gonna try and make this pretty, but I don't have the full idea of what I'm attempting yet! So bare bones this time, pretty faces for the future!
To all players interested in joining, there will be a user-run mini event in the Parfum Palace Thread in Kalos Region! If your character is not in Kalos, there will be a news bulletin about the Palace's owner wanting to celebrate Halloween by turning the garden into a haunted maze. You will need to find your own way to Parfum Palace. If you do not have the immediately obvious solutions (Fly or Surf) then you can use the Ferries and Trains to travel between Regions. This will be a First Come, First Served type of Event. I will be accepting Four Players joining this event. One character each! If you could also post your Pokemon Team by Species, Name, Gender, and Moves I would appreciate it! This can and will affect my decisions on what I think you can all take and what kinds of puzzles I should test you with! Creative solutions are always exciting!
Leading Roles
- Rooker: Kintaro Satoshi~ Odyss (Quilladin), Marshall (Pancham)/Attica (Pawniard), Mary (Luxio), Jade (Croagunk)
- Elfy: Hanako Lucali~ Zinnia (Froakie), Vervain (Drillbur)/Ember (Gardevoir), Sage (Pikachu)
Allies, Sidekicks, and Unlucky Hang-ons!
- SorukaNyoki: Llorona Braithwaite~ Deadeye (Rowlet), Kiseki (Togetic), Pebbles (Roggenrola), Sunset Shimmer (Ponyta), Pui (Poliwag), Atlas (Hitmonchan)
- WhitePrinceofWonderland: Alec Irvetta~ Spade (Roserade)/Piotr (Machamp), Weezing, Foongus Tamara (Gardevoir), Harley Quinn (Medicham)
- LittleRed: Thomas Barker~ Scizor, Lady (Gardevoir), Dewgong, Lapras, Metagross, Dwebble
- Fourth Slot
In case you miss the announcement--or feel you cannot/should not join this event--please still post if you have any interest in joining this event! I'm trying out an idea here and I'd like to know if it would be something we all want to do.
IMPORTANT NOTICE!: There will be NO EVENT PRIZE for this Event! This is a Player Run Event! If you have Event Claims from the past that you would like to pick up in this event, you're more than welcome to make this the place you find your special Pokemon and/or Items! No new Pokemon or Items will be presented in this event!
For those of you that would need some kind of in-character reason to suddenly drop what you're doing and go to Kalos and Parfum Palace, please read the following:
The screen lights up and the image of Parfum Palace fills the view. A large pair of speakers rise into view a the camera pans down with an announcer beside the present owner and director of Parfum Palace both extravagantly dressed for Halloween. "Good evening!" Declared the announcer, drawing his cape up to imitate a vampire. The director let out a howl right into his companion's ear showing off a convincing Lycanroc costume. "And welcome to Parfum Palace! Where, this year, we will host a Halloween Hedge Labyrinth for all to enjoy! Bring your friends! Don't be afraid! Or do...but don't miss out!" The two men play off of one another soliciting trainers to visit and enjoy the festivities while also suggesting strongly that donations should be presented as well. The advertisement ends and resumes regular television or radio programming.
Alternately, if unable to receive radio or television transmissions: Characters may receive e-mails on their various electronic gear items offering they make a trip to Parfum Palace and enjoy this year's Haunted Hedge Maze! Characters will be presented with an opportunity to accept or decline the invitation and will be sent a follow-up message giving them directions to the nearest travel point if they select "ACCEPT."
Upon arrival at the Parfum Palace thread, all participants will be greeted as normal by the hosts and workers of the Parfum Palace. Once entering the garden, however, they will be greeted with a gigantic Jack-O-Lantern nobody remembers placing and causes quite the commotion. Volunteers that are male or have male Pokemon may be seized by the Pumpkin Venusaur who put up the Jack-O-Lantern and seizes control of the local plant life to grow the maze into a more frightening pumpkin patch! This event will have up to two teams: Invaders and Prisoners. The Invading Team will be left outside the maze by Venusaur whoonly wants Handsome Princes wants Handsome Princes for herself and Beautiful Princesses for a different but no less nefarious purpose! Invaders are tasked with breaking into the Maze to rescue the Trainers and Pokemon she stole! The Prisoner Team will be taken in by Venusaur and trapped in a Pumpkin Prison together! The Prisoners will have to work together and communicate with strange Pokemon to escape Venusaur's clutches and reunite with the Invaders to escape the maze or confront Venusaur! The Maze will consist of having your characters determine the layout and try to make their way to Venusaur's Jack-o-Lantern Castle. They will be intercepted by Venusaur's servants including, but not limited to:
An Expired Candy-eating Golurk (Kintaro event Pokemon)
A Reaper Scyther (Kintaro event Pokemon)
A Shuppet (Hanako event Pokemon)
A male Pumpkin Bulbasaur (Hanako event Pokemon)
A Sirene (Hanako Event Pokemon)
Pumpkin Princess Venusaur Yvonne Kooper (Kintaro event Pokemon)
And more!
If you want to include an event Pokemon from your unclaimed section as one of the Bosses of this event, please include that in your post--or Message me and we can plop them in beside Yvonne and her minions!
Warning: Any Pokemon that appear here that ARE NOT your Event Claims cannot be Caught. If you wish to Roll for a Wild Encounter, please declare this intent and engage the wild Pokemon normally. If you want to battle it for EXP only, feel free to describe it as a Halloween version! (Please do not try to catch and keep a Halloween-style Pokemon without a Rainbow Spray or other "Shiny" modification item applied. I don't want Prince or Paradisity to regret letting me do this.)
Official Pokemon Levels and HP will not be a factor! No mechanical battles will take place by this story's intended plot! The engagements will be mainly combat-related puzzles looking for particular moves or battle techniques to get through! I will be preparing these puzzles myself so nobody needs to be left out!
Invaders:
Hanako Lucali w/Attica, Mary, Jade, Ember, Sage (Leader)
- Llorona Braithwaite
- Invader 3
- (May include more)
Your task, should you choose to accept it: Overcome the Maze Guardians and break into Yvonne's Pumpkin Castle to rescue Prisoners!
Prisoners:
Kintaro Satoshi w/ Odyss, Zinnia, Marshall, Vervain (Leader)
- Alec Irvetta
- Prisoner 3
- (May include more)
Your task, whether you like it or not: Break free of Yvonne's prison and escape--OR--help Kintaro and Hanako defeat Yvonne and restore Parfum Palace!
Team sizes may vary, and it's OK if everyone wants to play one team or the other. In that case, the event will change to exclusively focus on the Team that is chosen!
Let it be warned that this is a one-chance event! If your character decides or needs to leave during the event, they will not be able to return! If your character is late and has not yet entered, they are free to immediately join the Invaders to try and help rescue Prisoners (unless you have a convincing reason to be added to the Prison Team)!
IF YOU ARE NOT PARTICIPATING IN THE EVENT: Don't worry! Parfum Palace will not be permanently altered by the event! Players are free to come and go as they will as if the event doesn't even exist in their normal activities.
That's all I can think of right this moment without giving anything away. Please post interest and/or intent below! Thank you, everyone, and happy SUPER LATE Halloween!
EDIT:
Editions will be archived here along with credits to the cause of the edit as they appear.
Addition 1: Thanks to Prince, Yvonne is no longer sexist! She will pick out Princesses too for an undisclosed reason and take them prisoner as well!
Addition 2: Your Pokemon's level will not be a calculated factor here! Some of us are too weak to take on the threat Pumpkin Princess Yvonne presents and others are way too strong! So that everyone gets a chance to play and participate, your level will not be counted for or against you. This means stronger Pokemon may be defeated more easily than they should, but this also means normally weaker Pokemon will get an opportunity to help carry the team to victory!
Addition 3: Dice rolls! We'll probably need 'em! Don't forget to use the Dice Thread![/div]

Addition 4: Teams! Please give me a list of your teams with their Species, Name, Gender, and Moves that are going to be with you when the event begins! Camphrier Town has a Pokemon Center so you can change your team how you wish before arriving at the party!

But that does also sound funny. So your Rowlet may get left behind just as a rude joke.
This will be my first in character event here so it should be fun!
