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?
justasinine: no one is cooler. (hmph.)

[...the rather severe looking Rowlet Gongenzaka is currently sparring with just kind of... considers his next move.]

Hm.

[...he's really tempted to just wait and see what happens if he doesn't actually attack...]
betheman: (That wasn't very steadfast of u 8|)

[Well, with a pause in attack, any gathered energy being stored up won't be added to. So that's the major plus for Revali. The sole positive on Gongenzaka's end is that normal typing won't be at any disadvantage here- it won't really have an advantage either, but it's better than fighting. But he can only hold that energy in so long.

Which means-
] HOOHHHH!

[He unleashes it, and charges!]
justasinine: revali eating shit. (UNDIGNIFIED SQUAWK)

[personal profile] justasinine 2019-02-24 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[...oh, oh wait, he thought it was totally ineffective if you didn't attack, he wasn't actually expecting a charge- so he tries to dodge, but he's shocked enough that he does end up getting hit in the side as he tries to sidestep.

he squawks indignantly and, perhaps, in an undignified manner.]


Ugh!

[hang on hang on let him get his bearings-!]
betheman: (-a falling brick is what-)

[personal profile] betheman 2019-02-24 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Huuooooogh.... [For all that it's not a 'confused through fatigue' type of blow, Gongenzaka needs to catch his own bearings too. Swaying a bit on his feet, he holds his head with a groan.] Aaaauuuh... I, the man Gongenzaka...did not expect, such a rebound...

[Quite the recoil! But Revali has his moment, at least.]
justasinine: aw yeah. (rad as fuck)

[personal profile] justasinine 2019-02-25 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Did you use take down instead?

[ugh, okay, time to right himself... and he'll put some distance between himself and Gongenzaka and throw off some Leafage at him!]
betheman: (W H Y)

[personal profile] betheman 2019-02-26 05:59 am (UTC)(link)
I do not think so..?

[He doesn't know any ta- AAAAAAAAAA] MNHH!!

[There is certainly an attempt to dodge that one, but the most it does is end in him getting struck against the side. It doesn't do a lot of damage, but with a slight growl he shakes himself.] In the middle of conversation..!? [He protests loudly, preparing to try another 'move' himself.]
justasinine: no one is cooler. (hmph.)

You can't let your guard down just because I'm talking to you.

[Peck would probably do more damage, but he likes long range fighting, okay... so he's gonna keep at it with the Leafage!]
