Gijinka Village Plotting Page
Welcome to the Plotting Page!
Here you can post and talk about any ideas that you have that may concern either a roleplaying partner or the roleplay as a whole. As plots are fleshed out, I'll post them up here and later to the actual roleplay itself.
If a plot has a star at the bottom of it, that means it is a smaller plot. If it has three stars that means there is more plot in them and that it is much more large scale.
Plots and Events Close to Being Started. - Ideas by X, combo idea by Wild: A strange hailstorm hits Shimaka, knocking out all of the power! The town must call in all the citizens who are Electric type or know an Electric type move to keep the town running until the issue is resolved! Plots and Events Still In The Works
- Idea by Meteor: A town curse. Somebody out there has placed a curse on the town, bringing misfortune to the people of Shimaka. Who is behind it? We just don't know, but the townspeople are starting to point fingers and they are mostly towards the Ghost and Dark types of the community. ★★★
- Idea by Meteor: A circus has come to Shimaka! But this event is more than just clowns and Pyroar tamers. Something dark is happening behind the scenes. Someone, presumably a Psychic type, is using the circus as a front to kidnap random gijinkas and use them in their experiments. A villager, Malakai, is working with this villain to try and create Fused Gijinkas. And it seems like their experiments are becoming more successful each time. A release date for this plot is currently a mystery. ★★★
- Idea by Ground: A tournament! This is a Pokemon roleplay after all, and what kind of Pokemon rp doesn't have some sort of fighting competition in it! ★★★
-Idea by Ground: Hot springs vacation! Of course this plot may take more time, since Ground is making the characters who run the hot springs by the mountains near Shimaka. When this location opens though it would be fun if the people of Shimaka got to go on a small vacation! ★
- Idea by X: A dance will be hosted some time in the future by Rose the Mega Diancie. ★
- Idea by Meteor: A town scavenger hunt sort of thing to celebrate the towns founding and history. ★★★
- Idea by Meteor: A town fire. ★
- Idea by Meteor: There is an issue with the Temporal Tower, sending Dialga into Primal form and sending the town of Shimaka back in time. ★★★
- Idea by X: Something with the Ultra Beasts. I don't know what yet, but it'll probably be big and people might get hurt. ★★★
Events that have Already Happened
- A Valentines day event has passed. From the 8th to the 16th there was a valentines day festival in Shimaka. The first day was dedicated to friendship, the second day to family, and the final day to romance. There was a town feast at the end of the second day to show the bond of the community, a blind date set up on the final day, and at the end of the last day there was a small event to pay respect to lost loved ones.

Sooo, um, I'm not sure if this counts as plot development, but it's directly connected to one of the plots, so may as well ask it here. The hot springs. Not the building but like the actual amount of the springs. I'm not sure how many there should be?? Like, one for males, one for females, one for genderless... I was wondering if maybe there could be a couple that are able to be reserved by families or something? Given the ages on the website and whatnot, I figured people in the hot springs having to wear swimsuits makes the most sense,naturally, so the family reserved ones would kind of... I guess not be too far off from a swimming pool? Umm I need some help with this please XD And if this isn't the best place to talk about this then I apologize.

To be honest I'm not entirely sure what I picture the hot springs to look like XD Ahhh I remember you two mentioning making that page a while back, somewhere on the old forums. Ahhhh no no it's okay to forget; happens to everyone. I'm just glad you replied XP TBH I thought you were asleep so I appreciate the speedy reply. That's a good idea too; having it so at later hours kids can't go in, cause of safety and whatnot.

Oh I probs should've ran this by you sooner but I'll be making a character in the future that runs a bakery, if that's okay? Ahhh maybe you should get some sleep, then -3- It's late, after all. That might explain why you liked your own post XP Heck, I should've asleep a few hours ago, but I'm WIDE AWAKE. Ugh work is going to SUCK TOMORROW DXYeee that makes perfect sense.

Ahhh well the character that runs the bakery is Zollumo (one of the names I reserved) if you wanna put that in too -3- I'm not even tired lol. And I am laying down actually XD The beauty of laptops. Omg I literally just read updates for some fanfics I follow tbh. I see we think alike XD Ohhh that's a shame D: I hope your sleep tonight is much better. I'll keep track of it, don't worry~ My characters are the ones running it after all. It'd be lazy of me to leave the work to you v.v

I honestly love Meteor's idea, and I also wanted to contribute one of my own.
For the celebration of Sun/Moon, we could have 1+ Alola Pokemon explorers sail to Shimaka and promptly set up small stores {seemingly building them overnight} and begin to blend their cultures into the Shimaka population. Many Poekmon don't like these newcomer{s}

Okay. . . its really hard for me to gather my thoughts right now? But I'll try to get it all down correctly right now. If I don't make sense or forget something, I can always try again tomorrow. C:
For the hailstorm-caused blackout idea. . .
First of all, I guess I should ask how big is the hailstorm going to be? Is it going to stretch just over the town, and that is it? Or will it stretch over the nearby forest, and part of the mountain? And how long were you planning on having this problem last?
I ask these, because I had some suggestions that sort of depend on the answers. o3o
I should probably warn you that these ideas. . . sort of tie together in different places, so I might drop one subject to bring it up a few paragraphs later.
Okay. . . first off.
If you wanted to have the hailstorm and, in turn, the blackout last for a while, I had an idea for a way that can happen? I'm assuming that we're still going with Aurore using hailstorm, attempting to get a different result, but failing and causing trouble for the town, right? If not, then I apologize for making assumptions. o3o Anyway, I don't know how strong Aurore is, but I thought that there might be the possibility that he isn't storm enough to make a hailstorm last for days? So I was thinking. . . what if there was a rainstorm rolling in? Like, not a heavy, flood-level rainstorm; but maybe it was supposed to stay for a few days? And when Aurore used hailstorm, it affected the already-settled weather? Not only would Aurore's hailstorm have its normal power, but the added amount and power of the rainstorm that it changed? And that could be a reason that the hail-storm lasts a long time? If that were the case, then at first, the hailstorm would be a little violent, at its strongest; but as the days stretch on, it continues to hail and snow, and while it isn't as bad as it was when it first began, it keeps the Shimaka citizens from clearing the snow away permanently?
Now for the distance. . . If the hailstorm will reach the mountains, I had another idea. Since the mountains have already been said to be a little snowy. . . what if the added ice and snow caused a huge avalanche? And it was so big that it came down and blocked the entrance and exit of the town? To where it actually becomes an even bigger problem?
Now, for the blackout. . . You mentioned that electric types would be providing power for the town, since the hailstorm knocked the normal power out. ( Maybe, if we go with the avalanche, it knocked down some power lines too? ) Well, I imagine that, in reality, electric types are a only a small portion of the town, and it could really wear them out trying to get power to the whole town. Not only that, but for some people, it could be very dangerous to remain in their homes during the hailstorm. So. . . urgh I hope this comes out right. What if the citizens of Shimaka open up their businesses and, in some cases, their homes so that others can be safer in the center of town, and so that the electric types don't have to provide as much power to different places? Maybe there is even a town shelter that they take refuge in?
Okay what else. Oh, speaking of the types. o.o Okay, the electric types are powering the city. But what are the other types doing in this situation? The only two types that I thought could really do anything to help in this mess, besides the electric types, are the fire types and the ice types. The fire types could do their best to go from door to door, helping the citizens get fire started in their fireplaces, and clearing the road as much as they are able to so it is easier to get around the snowy city. As for the ice types, they would do fine in the cold weather, and they can help people get moved around to the shelter?
I don't have anything else to suggest. .3.
I'm sorry for typing all of that. Its your and Night's idea for a blackout, and Wild's for combining the two, but I thought these could be small inputs to consider. .3. Maybe things that might not be approved, but help other ideas come up. .3.

@ Lucipurr: I'll go add their name as soon as I can then. uwu I can't wait to see what kind of character they'll be! *snaps fingers* Fanfic before bed is always the way to go. I've been trying to finish this one fic for like probably a month now but good golly goodness it is long! I figured you would keep track of your own thing but I just had to make sure.
@ Comfy: I like that idea, though I think a character of mine has mentioned that there was an place in Shimaka that sold Alola food? Then again that could be run by someone who went there, learned a bunch about it, and then came back with recipes and whatnot. Its not like the region appeared over night though, so there have probably been some travelers before but nobody who actually came to live in the town. We've still got a long time to plan this out but we could totally have a thing special for the release of Sun/Moon. I definitely see what you mean. And I'm ready to pause this until a month or so from now when the game comes out.
But yes!! X could be a character who's the first traveler in a long time, or the first that decided to stay; therefore adding something interesting to the "shimaka gene pool"
I'm ready to focus on the hailstorm plot though.

I have another question, this one's about worldbuilding stuff. I know regular Pokemon aren't in existence, but... were they NEVER? Or did they used to exist, and died out for whatever reason? AKA do the Gijinkas know what normal Pokemon look like, is what I want to know.

Ohhh that makes sense .3. Thank you for the answer.
RIP I have yet another question that goes on this page I'm sorry to ask so many things v.v This is to know for one of my characters, Marmalade. I meant to ask this MONTHS ago but it slipped my mind over and over. How should I go about Rotom's form changing? Is it like normal, fusing with an appliance? Or... is the form changing even possible in the first place? I know it wouldn't be as simple as the form just happening, so like... idk??

okay so i have two questions that i'm going to ask here because,,, this is where questions seem to be asked
first one: this is a bit of a longshot question but would it be possible for me to hold off writing personalities for some of my characters until i get the chance to rp with them? because there's some characters that i have only little hints of personalities for and i want to know how they would act in general.
second one: how do zorua and zoroark's abilities work in this rp? like, can they legitimately transform into other pokemon/people or is there any specifics?

@ Pokemon: Thank you so much for the answer -3- I'm actually planning on adding more Rotom in the future so, the question got more important than needing it for just one character XD
