PMD: Seventeen Plates DT

auuugh, to many npcs D: x3

huh, ya see, one problem with Astral and Tortwag's comments are this. How could the NO put in more energy to catch us? There not exactly dawdling. Plus, first blood? Who killed Palkia?

Next, I'd like to point out that the NO actually cant start killing at random. They want a kingdom but what is a kingdom without people? Also at Tortwag's post, when the other see what were doing they'll think of it as, well, the Resistance. What is a resistance if we don't fight?

Finally, we're capturing Tornadus preferably after we save Articuno and remember, News doesn't travel that fast across a practically unpopulated continent that makes up 80% of the map.

ok, ok, ok, I know there will be angry comments after I post this so im just saying that there is always room for dissension in an egalitarian society.

@15253, remember, we is Riley.

@15253 How could they put more energy into that? Well first of all they'd stop trying to corrupt people. They'd just torture everyone and kill them.
Basically, they'd become a full totalitarian regime until every member of the Resistant is dead. They'd go into houses, ask for infos everywhere, strenghten the terror everywhere they go... They haven't done that yet. But they could. Especially if we start killing.

Genesect killed Palkia indeed, but is that an excuse to start a bloodbath? We're supposed to be the bearers of Balance. How can we prove our point if we become just as low as THEM?
Also, then CAN kill randomly. Sure, they need the people for their kingdom, but they don't need everyone. They can kill most of their people, strike terror and let the new generations grow in utter fear to secure power. Hitler did it. Stalin did it. Mao did it. Every single terrorizing tyrant in existance did it. Why not them? They have Groudon, Kyogre, Hoopa and 2 Forces of Nature (Thundurus and Tornadus) on their side. Just with them they could wipe out a good chunk of the world if they wanted. They also have freakin' GOD by their side. How would HE react if we start killing his most important generals?

There's a huge difference between fighting and killing. As I said, killing is an extreme act. By your logic, if we start killing, then we could totally kill every base related to NO. And guess what? Innocent civilians are there. Can't kill them now can we? 'Cause if we do, the NO will have an excuse to get more people in their ranks.
"when the other see what were doing they'll think of it as, well, the Resistance." <--- But how do you know that? How do you know how they'll react after seeing us killing just like the oppressing ones? There's absolutely no guarantee.

Actually, they do. Dragonites exist, and they can travel around the world in 16 hours. Most dragons are super fast as well, and don't even get me started on the teleporting Psy types. There are even electric types that act as radios, one of which described as such in 6th Gen. Information can therefore process fairly easily.

Angry? Pfff, we're not angry. We're just debating. Nothing wrong with that. I've seen worse on Youtube, you have no idea XD Basically what I'm trying to say is that killing should be a last resort, not something that we'd choose to do without care.
That and, again, such a choice would destroy the coordination of the group, because not everyone will agree. You didn't say anything to that.
Proof is: aren't we disagreeing right now?

@Verser Naaah, don't worry man. Only 4 NPCs to worry about, nothing too extreme.

I am double-posting for the sake of attracting attention.

@Charizard821 You're welcome.

And posted! I am having so much fun with this.
@AstralHunter I plan one more post to end the war. By your estimation, should it be elongated by, say, half of a third post more so that Cresselia's group can arrive in the Forest?

One more post ought to be fine, but please delay its submission until my next post has been submitted. (It will be any time from tomorrow to Sunday.)

@AstralHunter I only post Wenesday or weekends, so you should be fine. I'll just wait.

EDIT: I think I just found a theme for Greatwood Jungle, if there wasn't any already.

Thanks, @Tortwag!

And since we're doing themes for places as well, here's a theme for the Northern Plains:

@AstralHunter ...Huh. Yup, from that beginning I can TOTALLY see why it fits the snow. Good choice there. It soudns a bit dramatic too, which really fits the idea that, well, the Northern Plains aren't the safest place on earth. Likin' it.

okay, I suppose we wont have to kill em. Anyway, on a different subject, i'd like at least two posts before my group gets to the Greatwood Forest. I'm thinking that maybe its time for some nemesis's to show up. Hopefully, @Robusto can bring back darkrai with Bloodmoon (if u cant its fine) and maybe Zapdos can attack.

@15253 Not necessarily, no.
Y'know we could totally bring that subject up in the SB at some point. One of the main things that's supposed to scare a few other members of the Resisitance is that a guy like Twinkiel's ready to torture enemies to get infos out of them, or incapacitate them possibly permantly. Killing, not yet, but he might begin to think about it.

That aside, god yes, more nemesis attacks/appearances would be fun.

@AstralHunter, good theme choice, but I think it could be fitted to a better subject. I believe it should be Hoopa's theme, primarily because he's a trickster, and one of those malevolent yet sophisticated evil beings, and this song seemed to fit him.

@Tortwag, nice choice on the GWJ theme, but I think I've found a better one.

Also, the alternate version I'm designating for the Enchanted Grove. I know you'll like this version very much Hunter.

Finally, I hope no one minds me using the classic YouTube link instead of the in-site video system.

@Charizard821 Hoopa's theme? You sure? 'cause Hoopa's not that sofisticated, actually. And @Robusto said he was a lot like Porky (who is NOT. Sofisticated. AT ALL). I remember suggesting one already for him.

Except for Astral's comment, I don't believe anyone else reacted.

...Oh god... At this point I can't use the words "better" or "not as good" or "worse" or anything like that. The atmosphere with this one is just too different. It feels MUCH more immersive and mysterious. DARN IT, WHY MUST I COMPETE AGAINST A MARIO RPG CHOICE.
Alright, can't argue against it. I still enjoy my choice very much but darn. Mario RPGs have amazing tracks.

And the alternate version is approved without resistance. Seriously, it's amazing.

No it's not a problem at all, the music's good, that is all that matters. At least to me.

If you've never played Dream Team, definitely do so. The alternate theme is the "Dreamy Somnom" theme of the original "Sacred Somnom Woods".

oh and guys, we don't have to stick to the exact stats of pokemon. I mean, in the Palace of Tides I kicked a Gastrodon and it fainted. How that would happen? I have no clue but the point is that even though he's not, Hoopa can be tricky and sophisticated in this SB. That being said, anything can happen as long as its within the realm of possibility.
