Adopted/Captured Pokemon Rules + Where everything is and what you do there

[Aipom Of Doom]

Adopted/Captured Pokemon
Adopted Pokemon and Captured Pokemon are two large, related games spread over multiple topics in this subforum. Basically, for each of these games, you can obtain Pokemon and train them in different ways. You can adopt Pokemon by asking for them from one of the adoption centers, and/or capture them from the Capture Centers.

After you have some Pokemon, you can write battles for them. From the many games, you can win items, stamps (currency of Adopted Pokemon), and CCPs (currency of Captured Pokemon). Stamps and CCPs can be redeemed for various items and services in different topics.

For more detailed information, you can read the FAQ.

The games on this forum are bound to the GGG Rules except for Rule 6 of the Games section, and, obviously, all threads are bound to the TPM General Rules.

The rules listed below are specific to this subforum.

RULES

1) We currently have two Adoption Centers:

Dragon Tamers
Pokemon Zoo

Two is the limit, so do not ask to create another, and do not try to post one, it will be closed.

2) We currently have two Capture Centers:

Crystal Caves
Pokemon Avengers

Two is the limit, so no more will be allowed.

3) You can breed for new adopted or captured pokemon at Pocket Monsters Breeding Center.

4) If you recieve a Pokemon from anything not listed here, it is not an Adopted Pokemon, and will no be accepted within the Adoption System.

5) You are allowed 30 Pokemon overall. Which means that you can get 15 from the Adoption Centers and another 15 from the Capture Centers. You will not be allowed to use extra spots to pass the 15 limit.

6) You are free to trade your adopted pokemon with other trainers. However, if what you want is to put one of your adopted pokemon back in an Adoption Center, you'll have to pay a fee of 5 stamps. The following rule applies when disowning a pokemon: no trainer is allowed to adopt any pokemon on the same day they abandon one ('day' meaning a 24-hour period). Also, no pokemon can be abandoned until at least a month has passed since their adoption, and pokemon of level 18 or higher can't be given back for adoption at all.

Dragon Tamers Adoption Center
This is one of the two places you can adopt a Pokemon. The Pokemon here are generic and normal; you can make them act however you want. Just be sure to look in the last few pages for the last updated list of Pokemon, and then pick one to adopt.

Pokezoo Adoption Center
This is the other adoption center. The Pokemon here have a few sentences describing their general personality, which could give you a starting point for how to make them act in your stories. Of course, you can change the personalities listed here if you really want to. Of course, make sure that you look for the last list near the end when you pick one to adopt.

Dragon Tamers Battle Range
At the Battle Range you write battles for your adopted Pokemon to gain levels, and for you to get Stamps. There is always one active scenario, which explains the situation you're writing about, and what Pokemon you'll be facing. Scenarios stay active for a while, so you have plenty of time to write a good battle, and get many stamps as a reward.

Dragon Tamers Reward Center
You can use your stamps to buy various items for yourself and your Pokemon. These items range from TMs to juices that let you change the colors of your Pokemon to enhancers for particular types of Pokemon. Also, you can buy the right to breed for an elusive Dratini here.

Crystal Caves Capture Center
This one of the two Capture Centers. Here, you go to different areas to fight and try to capture Pokemon. These, obviously, are Captured Pokemon, which are counted seperately form Adopted ones.

Crystal Caves Battle Arena
You can train your captured Pokemon here. Like the Battle Range, there are scenerios for you to follow. Also, you can use the Random Battle Generator here to fight a completely random
Pokemon at a cost. You get CCPs as a reward for your writing.

Crystal Caves Kiosk
Treat your captees that you've ensnared at either Capture Center to a wide selection of TMs, items to use in battle, enhancers, juices, and much more! Make sure you have a decent amount of CCPs!

Pokemon Avengers Capture Center
The old Pokemon Avengers Capture Center has reopened! You can start capturing Pokemon there as well.

Eevee House
This is a place where you can hang out with your adopted pokemon. You can also let them make friends and have fun, and enter your adopted pokemon in monthly races for the prize of two levels or an item.

Goldenrod Tower
Here you can get items for your pokemon by answering daily polls or playing fun games.

Pocket Monsters Breeding Center
Are you tired of waiting for a pokemon to show up at the adoption centers, or can't seem to find the one you want at the capture center? Why not check out the list of available pokes and see if we have the one you're looking for? You can have your own pokemon breed here too.

PokeZoo Battle Tower
Have a gameboy-like battle here against another trainer with your adopted or captured Pokemon. You fight a 1-on-1 or 2-on-2 battle that works roughly in the same way as in the games (note: Surf works as in Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire, it doesn't affect the partner). The winning Pokemon gains a level for it's victory.

The Dragon's Guild
The place where it all began. Here you can have some in-character interaction (AC only), as well as ask questions, and share any interesting findings (in real life, on the web, anywhere).

Dragon Tamers Information Center
The out-of-character thread to share and request any and all information regarding the Dragon Tamers storyline.
