[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[Iron]

Hey, that's very fine Windos, no need to be somewhat put on egde!~ *gently hugs* I personally don't think I'll invest a lot of money in these Cards, especially now that Nathan as she bought that Starter Pack. As for playing, that's a casual side activity done whenever I feel like, RPing/Questing/Interacting with my Pokemon is still my focus. That makes me wonder... @Iron, do you think it's legal to ask any person, mostly that one you just had a real battle with, whether he's up for a card game as well? Kinda like that NPC did with Ventus.

Creshire stats: 
1 in 6 traveling trainers are also into the TCG. 3 out of 6 pre-adventuring youth are into the TCG. 4% of working adults are into the TCG. 

So if you wanna ask someone to a battle, you can. It costs me nothing to roll ~7 more dice on the end of a battle, and it costs Shiva, what, twenty minutes? 

They aren't going to want to play outside unless the weather is nice, though.

A bicycle at an American Walmart is $90. That's probably about what a 16 17 year old like Nathan, a typical new Pokemon trainer, would have. The Pokerole Bike is $1500.

Why is a bike in America that cheap? o.o Now I want one, my old one got stolen maybe two years ago and I never rode a bike again after that.

Hooray! Will do so when i'm feeling funny, Shiva can easily make the weather being nice thanks to Nightshade.

They're cheap because they are terrible quality. But mine did last 5 years of riding around in the yard!

In real life, you take turns placing a card, trying to capture your opponent's squares. You can actually play it in Pokemon Insurgence, along with the usual games like Voltorb Flip or Slots.

I haven't played enough Insurgence to reach the town with the Games Corner, *sob*

Huh, but if the whole Game of Triple Triad is one simple matchup of dice rolling, that'll be easy, fast and still somewhat fun, maybe one day I'll have Shiva get into the actual battling with cards. Last question, does the victory actually, well, 'mean' anything? More than honor, I mean. You stated we can play for keeps, that means whoever wins gets the foe's cards, but can we play for a small wager or an item as well? (200$, a Potion, such things) That'll has influence to how much I'll level up Gaming Science Speciality, likely.

[Iron]

That's possible, but most trainers aren't going to be very into expensive wagers.

Sometimes there are tournaments and stuff where winning will mean you advance.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Advance is always good. Curious to see where this whole TCG thing will develop and lead to!~ I'll make sure to note important things in the tab you already made.


Besides, @Lord Windos, you said you wanted to talk with Shiva about things tonight's in-game Day? Depending on how busy you are, you can start this whenever you like, it can also be done via PrivateMessage, I don't mind. Apart from that, I guess Shiva ends the Day with card-gaming and will return to the Eastern Pokemon Center with Nathan once they all played enough and shared the Starter Set between themselves. @Dragonstrike, let me know when you've finished the list~

I'll have the conversation with you in the Game Thread, since it shouldn't take too long if neither of us drag it out, and it can always be flashbacked too since its not super crucial, alright? Most likely will start that after the second exchange is made with Nathan, so please wait warmly, my love!

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

That's very fine, I'm in no hurry.

[Spiritmon]

Sorry the delay. I was taking a few notes of the move from Delta Onix. Lets go ahead...

@Spiritmon @Lord Windos @PhantomUnderYourDesk

Should we wait for Heart to finish things with Gargryph before we begin Nathan's meeting? Or shall we just continue on and run them simultaneously?
