freeform pokemon site that isn't strictly slice-of-life or system-led at all. one that does focus on the structure offered in the games, but from a different perspective: instead of playing just beginner trainers, we are allowed to play people on various points in life with pokemon. it's hard to explain exactly what i want, but absolutely zero rules about starting mons (except for maybe limitations on shinies and legendaries, that's reasonable) and no rules about how your character "levels up." i actually do want the games structure because i enjoy playing the drama of being a professional trainer. i basically want to take a cynthia-level powerful character and make all their threads about their hopeless love life, if that makes sense? i want to focus on gym leaders gossiping about each other, about professional battle tower trainers lamenting how much work keeping their teams competitive is over a spa day, and play the retired trainers who couldn't keep a spotlight now running businesses. a focus less on the battling aspect and more about the economic/social aspect of pokemon training as a sport.
like people can play battles if they want, because those can be fun to write. but idk i find the issue with system-based sites that don't reward on general post count is that i only have limited time for RP and if i'm rewarded for certain threads but not others...
