Name/Alias: What’s your…? Lila
Description: What do you look like...? Are you..?
Background: But you came from…? The Snowy Forests.
Dream: To train the greatest of bug types around, show the world their value.
Greatest Fear: Fire. While it does give warmth, that warmth can oh so easily turn into an inferno unchecked. The day the forest burned around her was one that left a deep scar.

Trainer Archetype: Backpacker

Abilities
SNEAK 1
CALL    2
FIGHT  1
TRICK   2
RESIST 3
TINKER 1

I happen to like Snom. It's a cool bug. On another hand, Volcarona is a Fire type, which.. Yeah. End goals, conquer fears, resist freezing in place like a statue.
 Become the best bug specialist and defeat her dragons! (Should be fun, there are neat bug types around.)

[Dwarmin]

@TricMagic For Archetype you meant Bug Catcher right? You have backpacker linked but it may have been copypasta.

[TricMagic]

I settled on Backpacker over bug catcher for a more adventurous person. She doesn't catch Pokémon all that often, preferring to focus on a few.

Backpackers usually only have one Pokémon but they appear to have many Poké Balls in their backpacks.

Snom's likely to be the only one she has for a while. I was also thinking Rising Star, but she's not really there yet...

Kinda a thing there are no aspiring bug-type specialist classes that aren't actually of the ace-line.. You're either a bug catcher in a local forest, or a maniac for bugs. Even Bugsy falls prey to this, though at least he plays more to an explorer style of outfit as a researcher. The other bug-type gym leader is an artist.

Alright, you're in, Tric. Perks incoming!

Snom, The Worm Pokemon

Spoiler: Norre Dex (click to show/hide)

Snom is a peaceful ice bug pokemon found in cold regions of the world-while somewhat harmless, it's advised to keep an eye above and below you when traveling in cold forests-a surprising amount of people have been injured by Snom they startled due to the heavy cocoon of spiked ice which they sleep in, which is usually located buried in snow at the base of a tree in the day and hanging in the branches at night, while they sleep. Trainers should be advised that while Snom can live entirely on clean snow, and cannot process solid food, they still enjoy additions to their diet in the form of powdered liquids and blended berries.

Spoiler: Kanto Dex (click to show/hide)

A tiny and frigid bug pokemon who dwells in cold regions of the world, hiding like a coward in trees in an icy cocoon. Travelers have claimed the meat of Snom is particularly delicious and has a wide variety of tasty flavors-the pokemons preference for flavor impacts its taste.

Spoiler: Galar Dex (click to show/hide)

A curious pokemon that lives in regions normally inhospitable to both humans and bugs-it's capable of subsisting entirely on liquid snow, which it uses to sheath its body in a tough shell of ice. It shows a clear preference to clean snow and should not be fed anything else-Snom who gain a taste for sweets find it hard to break, and it has unknown effects on their molecular biology we have not fully studied.

Dex Guide
Norre Dex (belongs to Lila) : Useful survival information and specialized useful information for cold and temperate forest pokemon. May have more scant information on pokemon outside these areas.
Kanto Dex (Belongs to Tim): Somewhat dubious, yet wide spread, knowledge on almost all pokemon in the world. Often focused on combat related information, even if not entirely accurate.
Galar Dex (Belongs Seliver and Kyle): Brainy and technical knowledge on pokemon who dwell in Galar and the rest of poke-Europe. Sometimes a bit heartless.

[VermilionSkies]

Each of the dexes having different styles is a very nice touch.

[Horizon]

Totes.

[Dwarmin]

We'll start tomorrow, hopefully!

[TricMagic]

Mmm. Welcome to Norre everyone, mind the Snom!

I'm hoping I can get Snom Ice Scales since that halves special damage. It also has the distinction of being the only bug to evolve through friendship. Like most cocoon bugs, it also doesn't know many moves in it's first form. Powder Snow and Struggle Bug is better than most though.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I am also now wondering what happens if a Snom gets addicted to sweets. Does evolve into a Bug-Fairy type regional? Or something else.

The Kanto Dex is sus though.

As a tutorial on gear. Do we need to buy it to be able to access different gear, or would it be something we just pull out of ether?

[Dwarmin]

One of the advantages of the game is we can goof around with RTD stuff. If you want to modify your pokemons ability, you simply have to train them!

[Dwarmin]

Literally can pull anything you could conceivably have in your backpack in a pokemon game. There's some restrictions-you'd have to explain how you just happened to have had a spare rare pokemon fossil or a pokeballzooka in your bag this whole time-but everything else is fair game. Key items are things you do have available that you normally wouldn't.

In other words, the Brock Backpack standard.

I'm mostly joking. So many ingredients in that backpack. All ready to cook.

[Dwarmin]

Alright, I've decided we'll be starting on monday. Pm you all then!

[Dwarmin]

Aaaaand I got super delayed the today. Gonna have to pick it up tomorrow.

[Dwarmin]

And unfortunately, it doesn't seem we're going to be able to start after all. The amount of time I'd need to actually have and thought I would drastically shrunk. So instead of continuing to delay the start of the game forever, I'll just have to call it rather than keep you all waiting on me.

Sorry guys! But it's better to admit defeat sometimes.
