TEST DRIVE MEME



This is the Test Drive Meme for Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Ultra Penumbra's Mock Exploration. This is mostly to voicetest, play around with being a Pokemon, and have fun with the setting. Signups will happen on Friday, March 1, so have fun figuring who you might want to bring!

We have a few prompts for you, but you can do basically anything as long as it fits with the FAQ guidelines.

1. Hiya! I'm a Pokemon! ...No I'm not!

After a weird, hazy, half-remembered dream, you wake up in a clearing in the forest surrounded by a bunch of strange creatures who appear to be as groggy and disoriented as you are. Whether you take the creatures' presence as a threat or just an oddity, you quickly find out that your body's a little... different now. In fact, you are also a weird creature! Well, have fun with that.

2. Out on the Town

Well, you've come to terms with the fact that you're a Pokemon now, but fortunately, you're not alone... both in terms of people in your situation and the fact that you're near civilization. Sure, everyone's some kind of weird critter, but you can go out and participate in society. Why not spend some time exploring? Maybe you should meet up with your fellow new arrivals, too, just to see what they're making of things.

3. Pokemon Battle!

The convenient dojo to the south of Pokemon Square is a great place to try out any weird new powers you might have. After all, even though you're in a different body, you've got cool new powers! Or you can just tackle things really hard, but hey. That's still cool. But it might be worth trying to figure your powers out, because...

4. Dungeon Diving!

You've heard some rumors about town that you might be able to find the answer to your situation in one of those Mystery Dungeons that keep popping up everywhere... and even if they don't, success in those means you might attract the attention of someone who will be able to find the answer to your situation. And hey, exploring dungeon is lucrative, and it's a favor to the friendly locals who've been hosting you. Why not give it a shot?

heads up if Akira would notice- Gon sounds like he walked out of ancient japan

A-Auhh...it is the same for myself... [The idea that others are in this situation fortunately isn't too bizarre after waking up in the same clearing. Careful though boys, Dark is weak to Fighting]

I, the man Gongenzaka, am unsure how I am even able to grasp things actually, but...

[LIFE...FINDS A WAY...

Gongenzaka shakes himself, archaic chatter continuing as it stands there.
] Have you yourself found anything that could explain all of this? So far, it would seem none have an answer...
velvetinmate: (don't care what your old man say)

noted!

[... Wow, okay, that is a really old-timey way of talking. That's actually kind of cool?? Holy crap.

Right, anyway. He shakes his head at the question.]


Nothing yet, unfortunately. And I haven't heard anything from anyone else I've talked to, either. I wish I had, but...
betheman: (just quietly enter Thought-)

[personal profile] betheman 2019-02-22 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Hahhh... [Bit of a forlorn sigh, to that. There really isn't much to be done.] Mnhh...with all of this then, at this rate...we will have to move priority to simply finding a place to sleep for the evening...
velvetinmate: (baby sell that soul)

[personal profile] velvetinmate 2019-02-22 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
At least that's looking like a lot less of an undertaking at this point.

[If he was human, he'd be rubbing the back of his neck right about now.]

The food situation's something to think about too.
betheman: (well that's NEW)

[personal profile] betheman 2019-02-23 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
Auuh, that is true! [..................... ....his stomach grumbles at the mention.]

T...that is also true...

[Oh noooooooo] ...Perhaps we should search for both things...auh.

[It occurs to him-] ...Which, reminds me...I have failed to introduce myself! I am Gongenzaka Noboru- it is good to meet you, [he adds, bowing his head.]
velvetinmate: (but we gonna raise hell anyway)

[personal profile] velvetinmate 2019-02-23 02:46 am (UTC)(link)
That'd... probably be a good idea. At least two pairs of eyes would be better than one, yeah?

[He'll politely stifle the chuckle at Gongenzaka's stomach grumbling.]

Oh, uh, Kurusu Akira. Nice to meet you, too.
betheman: (:Da consider)

[personal profile] betheman 2019-02-24 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmn! Exactly! Then...Akira, [He tries, pausing in case that's not the name he quite prefers.] Let us begin the search!
velvetinmate: (raise hell)

[personal profile] velvetinmate 2019-02-24 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[Akira's ears twitch and he nods.]

Yeah, let's get to it.

[But where to start, hmm...]
betheman: (o3o)

[personal profile] betheman 2019-02-26 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm! Perhaps... [...Hm. He sniffs the air, hoping his nose can point them somewhere.] Perhaps, we can find a smell...or...
