Intro Post

You can call me Ling Wen, she/her. Here because my partners thought it would be good for me to "loosen up".

My team: Zhengqi (Cinncino) Bai Jing (Goodra) Shai (Espeon)

I'll also have my amazing partners introduce themselves since they were the once who wanted me here in the first place. They might pop up occasionally.

Shi Wudu. He/him

wow, what a great introduction. anyways, hello people!!! Pei Ming, also he/him. i like going to gyms to train. it's important to stay active! i often train together with my team, it makes it much more enjoyable, and we all hype each other up!!

Your intro is longer than Ling Wen's and this is meant to be her blog...

ooc under cut!

so uh. it's me again! @kleeper123

crossing my fingers that i'll be better at managing this blog since it should be more chill - they're not going through any mainline game or anything

anywho! ling wen and gang are from tgcf, except this is like. pokemon AU.

[gilded--imprisonment]

Your eyes are really pretty, I’ve never seen any like that… :)

Thank you. I've been told that before. I wouldn't expect you to have seen any others.

[gilded--imprisonment]

I think I'd like to train a bit more before the gym, but I also want to bond with my team! Does anyone have any activities to do with your Pokémon?

[gilded--imprisonment]

Good luck! I recommend letting the Pokémon find you, honestly. To me, it feels a bit mean to just capture them without consent. They're thinking and feeling beings, just like us, after all.

They do make lovely companions though.

Hello! I’ve stumbled upon you here, and I hope it wouldn’t be rude to ask about this. You—and a fair number of others I’ve met—mention this “gym challenge…” what is it? It seems important here.

(I, too, am not from around here. Let’s just say I felt more comfortable asking a kindred spirit than a local.)

( from @greatesteagle )

Oh, hello there! Well, I'm probably not the best one to ask, but to the best of my understanding, it's a challenge that has Pokémon trainers (just in case you don't already know, since you seem to also be a Faller, Pokémon are magical creatures, and from my experience most, if not all of them, are sentient) travel around whatever region they're in to battle "Gym Leaders", who are generally considered adept at Pokémon battles. At the end, you can challenge the Champion of the region, which is apparently a big honor.

It seems to be very popular, although definitely not the only thing you can do. In any case, whatever you decide on doing - welcome to the world of Pokémon!

Pelipper mail! It’s from @the-random-mail-service

A worm

Well would you look at that! The fabled Emanator of Aha! That would be rather funny if it was, wouldn't it?

Hm. Do they... actually have worms in this world? Don't you have Pokémon instead of animals?

Introducing the Union Circle!

Ever wanted your character to visit another person's character, but they're in separate universes? This is for you!

Union Circle functions similarly to Pelipper Mail, Mystery Gift, and Magic Anons. It's a setting you can have on your blog to be enabled or disabled.

If enabled, people can send your character a "Union Request". If your character accepts the Union Request, then the character who sent the request will temporarily appear in your character's universe. More than two people can participate in a Union Circle, too!

It's important that all involved parties must agree to a Union Circle before it forms. If any party does not agree to the Union Request, the Union Circle will not occur.

Too much for you? There's also Union Rooms! These are a lot like Union Circles, but confined to a single room. People can enter these rooms to interact with characters from other universes! Once they leave the Union Room, though, they will return to their home universe.

Union Circle can be enabled or disabled at any time by the blogrunner.

If the existence of Union Circle might break your plots, don't worry, I have a solution!

Sometimes, Union Circle can't connect to certain universes. The in-universe reasoning can vary, from divine interference, to tumblr being weird and glitchy, to stress on the servers, and anything else you can think of! Think of this sorta like the "Divine Censorship" certain blogs employ to prevent characters from being spoiled on future events.

Please reblog this post if you're interested in using Union Circle on your blog(s), or just want to let more people know about it! Only if you want, though!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me!

That's all I can think of! I hope you all have fun with Union Circle!

opinions on dr. ratio?

He’s a very intelligent man, I do enjoy spending time with the good doctor. One time he gifted me these lovely catcakes! I miss them… although at least I don’t have to worry about them since I know Ratio will take care of them.

[gilded--imprisonment]

Yeah, you'd know about courts, wouldn't you.

Yes, I do know about courts.

[gilded--imprisonment]

Fascinating! Back home, we do not have anything like spirit channeling either. At least, as far as I am aware, although I would not be surprised if there was. We do have courts though.

Hello there! I'm also a Faller from a world without Pokémon - may I ask what yours is like? There's such a wide variety of people on this website, and it's always interesting to hear about others' worlds.

~@gilded--imprisonment

My home world... well, I cannot quite say it is as interesting in an average person's day-to-day life as the one I am currently in.

My occupation tends to bring me into the more... unsavory parts of my world. The places where people are driven to commit the most heinous of acts.

It is not all bad, though. My job as a prosecutor involves bringing the guilty to justice, and I have a close-knit circle of friends (and more) back home.

One thing that does exist back home that I have not seen here in any capacity is spirit channeling. My partner back home is one of the occasional people capable of channeling the spirits of the dead and temporarily taking on their form.

Spirit channeling does not get used in court nearly as often as one might expect. The dead are often no more reliable than any other witness, as I have learned the hard way.

[gilded--imprisonment]

why do you hate the idea of not being able to lie so much? you've got nothing to hide... do you?

I do not. I am open about what I've done as part of the IPC.

[gilded--imprisonment]

Pelipper Mail!

The brand of Harmony. Have fun with this now that an Emanator cannot cut it off you.

Really? Really?

You know what, this is fine. I survived last time, and I'll do it again now. I'll just... not lie.

[gilded--imprisonment]

I could see it, and I have no idea. The battle was tough, but my team managed to win. I'm very proud of them. How did you fare against her?

oh, you're in castelia! i'm about to go there :D

maybe we'll see each other, if we're in the same world :)

-@davepetatrains

I see! Well, from reading your blog, I do not believe we are in the same world, although we have had very similar experiences. There seem to be things that are simply fated to happen in almost every world, it seems.

[gilded--imprisonment]

Unfortunately, yes. I think other people on this website have already dealt with Plasma, but I am unable to see messages about that. Someone called it "divine censorship".

I suppose that is fair. I wouldn't want to inflict my curse on anyone else either.

I'm so sorry, but could you please hold onto this for me for a little while? I promise I'll take it back once I'm done here.

Derpy pelipper mail! All of Fluttershy's social anxiety.

(@the-fluffiest-trainer)

WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS

...Were you the only one to receive that?

I haven't the best reference for the normal level of social anxiety one should have, but I don't seem to have any more than I usually do.

I feel unreasonably nervous looking at strangers.

pfff-

I may have far too much anxiety within me, but I have no qualms about slapping you upside the head, Link.

no wait i just think it's funny

[gilded--imprisonment]

And we've arrived in Castelia! Thankfully, someone gave me a map so I'll be able to find my way around. Any recommendations for what to do here - besides the Gym of course.

[gilded--imprisonment]

Oh dear, that's really quite unfortunate. If such a thing is possible, I'm willing to take the social anxiety? I'm very adept at hiding such troubles.
