>fancanon
I tried to be very lore accurate, taking options from different official pokemon sources. Sure, there's the option for having your pokemon be sexy humans that I did for crowd-pleasing purposes, and some balance things to make signature types other than fighting, psychic, or ghost be worth taking, but a *lot* are options are rooted in canon. The immortality option is the plot of X/Y - down to making you unnaturally tall as a side-effect. Arceus canonically has given the player points that can be exchanged for prizes. A gardevoir spirit guide was a thing in Mystery Dungeon. Pokerus is the explanation of Faster Growth letting your stats raise quicker. The option to be turned into a pokemon is just what happened to Bill. I'll accept that some concessions were make to make balanced and appealing CYOA options, but I tried my best to be true to the lore - as much as I can with different sources being their own canon.

>>97901019
I tried to err on the side of caution since I'm typically too stingy with points. You do need to share them between Trainer Class, technology, and your Companion Pokemon, though. Not to mention it's 5 points for each pokemon after your first (unless you're fine filling out your team with wild ones). I team of 6 costs you 25 points right off.

>>97901024
Arceus is said to have 100 arms. Looking at Arceus, there's clearly not 100 arms. Given that Arceus gives pieces of himself to trainers sometimes, I interpret "arm" to mean "corporeal body".

>>97900959
Depends on my level of enjoyment of the cyoa itself. Some are a straightforward list, others are basically elaborate proto-novels that I'm still adding to till this day.

Time for a tally.
HOLE DIGGERS HALL OF FAME

>>97897852
Dug a 1m hole (under the old rules). 1/15 ≈ 7% chance to die.
He dug up a magical Caustic Energy Manipulation latex glove! But 1m probably invokes some of the misfrtoune clause. Careful with that Caustic Energy, Anon!

>>97897863
Dug a 25m hole. 1-(19/20)^25 ≈ 72% chance to die.
Despite Anon's death wish, he survived and won big. He got a waifu, and $11,111,111,111,100 worth of gems, and an opportunity to buy an elixir of youth, and 2 artifacts. Equipped with them, Anon can do cream attacks and become a maternal badass.

>>97897867
Dug a 25m hole. 72% chance to die.
A demon got him. But in his final moments, Anon whispered: I reject your reality and substitute my own. The Golden Truth. In what to the rest of the world must've seemed a mere moment, Anon vividly imagined that he foght off the demon, and survived, and lived happily ever after with his sexy dwarf waifu. ... Then, back in reality, the demon proceeded to murder him.

>>97897877 (me)
Dug a 6m hole. 26% chance to die.
Got $11,100 out of it. Is 6 tries enough to avoid the misfortune?
>>
>>97901185 (cont.)


>>97897941
Dug a 25m hole. 72% chance to die.
Despite Anon's death wish, he survived and won even bigger. He got $111,111,111,111,100 worth of gems, 2 sages, 5 artifacts out if it. Anon was generous and donated the top gem to scientists, to harness whatever makes it so valuable. This is the sci-fi utopia timeline. The surviving anons better hope they live in the same timeline.

>>97898323
Dug a 25m hole. 72% chance to die.
Two demons got him. Which of them should get to murder Anon, they argued. Neither would be satisfied with sharing his murders. Did the demons tear each other apart in the heat of the argument? Was Anon be let off scot-free? No, they used demonic magic to split Anon into two Anons, and each demon murdered one Anon. There are now two Anons walking around, seemingly, but both are demons wearing his skin.

-----------------------

In summary, anons are:
1. Fearless gamblers
2. Lucky

That said, the probabilities didn't work out the way I would've liked: I'd have liked it if the first meters have astronomically low risk, and the later meters approach P=1 faster, because then the player would be more motivated to think hard about how much to bet; but as it is, it even seems sound to risk it all. So I structured it poorly.

>>97901087
Well, I did put in alternatives for that. See >>97901119 . Or if you become a pokemon and pick Unusual Body, you can be up to 20x smaller to offset the many things in the pokemon world that make you grow.

>>97901157
I wasn't sure what do for them other than say "here's this canon character and what their personality is. do you want to be their friend?" If there's demand for it, I could add a page for something like that, though.

>>97901158
Fair, I did design it with a lot of pokemon background knowledge required - namely in that it assumes you can pick a favorite out of the pool of over 1000 pokemon. And yes, the hologram projector can work outside of battle. You could even make your own Jacinthe zones - not that that would mean anything to you.

>>97901138
Mismagius is a fun pokemon - one of my favorites. I like your classic journey to become champion. I feel like having an impish ghost type that refuses to go in their pokeball is sure to get someone into trouble, so that sounds fun.

Tera Crystal. I'll use this on Divine Protection (Upgraded), since I should be able to complete these during my immortality.

Basically, I'm going to set up an Epstein Island and turn cute pokemon into lolis (and capture normal human girls of course) to essentially make the best harem you've ever known. With my fabulous and insane wealth I will control the politics and keep my island secure. I'll be immortal, immune to bad luck and under divine protection.

If any anons are around, you're free to visit and sample the goods, just don't go blabbing about it. Plus I'll sugar daddy anyone who wants some money. Just be on my side if unsavory descriptions somehow hit the fan.

Guess I'll slowly start spreading legends, and since I'll be a 12-foot immortal god people will, eventually, given hundreds of years, probably worship me. Plus I'll get to enjoy lolis.

Also, I'll make lots of babies.

True, I ran out of space in my post and didn't want to double-post. I was going to go into more detail about creating an entire lineage by using my vast wealth to impregnate women over and over again, until I spread my seed across thousands and thousands, essentially becoming the Genghis Khan of this world. If they want, they can opt in for IVF, I don't mind! They'll be paid well.

There's no other option. Who would want to be the inferior gender? Simpler minds, weaker bodies, bleeding every month, can only bring one baby every nine (and that's generous) months into the world.

Opposite of all of that is the Man, and I can bring in thousands of babies a year. I would drown you in a dynastic legacy so torrential you wouldn't even be able to comprehend it. Face it - being a woman would be gay as hell.

I like that your build is in image form. So let's see... a giant perma-mega thicc mewtwo Y. I like your reasoning for picking the Mewtwo Cherish Pokemon. I like the mental image of just picking up the Shadow Mewtwo when he's being evil and scolding him. The Orphanage is a good choice since you already have a ranch, and you're likely strong enough to take on a rampaging legendary or two. Not sure what societal change you're after for Revolutionize Life. And you pick the Gardevoir as your bonus. I like it.

>>97901227
"There once were people who married pokemon. This was a normal thing because long ago, people and pokemon were the same." -ancient Sinnoh lore.

>>97901250
So definitely seems to be some interest in human companions.

>>97901445
Okay, going straight for the god-pokemon I see. You've got plenty of stacking power boosts to be a powerful reckoning force. That said, why Arceus? Your god-power is in a limited capacity, and there's plenty of other pokemon with high combat potential. Just because it is the classic, or so that your limited god-power can let you do minor miracles? Revolutionize Life should be pretty easy when The Almighty Sinnoh shows up in person to lay down the law. Might have a harder time with inventing technology, but having your subordinates do it still counts, so I believe in you.

I played your CYOA without knowing much about pokemon, to be honest. Didn't really like them. When I was a kid people went crazy for it but I was more of a Legend of Dragoon or Chrono Trigger guy. I always thought pokemon looked simplistic and boring in both gameplay, graphics and plot. I was probably wrong but that's just how it went.

My secretive islands will be the joy of many.

>>97901759
So pokemon plot got better as time went on. The gen 8 plot was pretty contrived. And the games themselves could use more polish. Legends ZA had a bunch of fun NPCs and Scarlet/Violet had a tragic death I really liked, so I'd rate it high for plot - didn't care as much for the enemy team (like Team Rocket but not) it had though. But to answer your question, AZ is the guy from the meme image attached to this post. In lore, he was an ancient king from 3000 years ago, but his partner pokemon Floette died. So he tied hundreds of people and pokemon up to stone monoliths and sucked out their souls to fuel a superweapon he built that would revive his beloved pokemon. This granted him immortality (just a lot of longevity) in the process, as well as made him grow to like double human height - his pants are often designed with stitches and patches to accommodate his form. Until a more recent pokemon game where the superweapon was used on someone else, it was uncertain if his height was due to the weapon or just how people were back then.

>>97901767
Glad you like it! Yeah, it depends a bit too much on franchise knowledge to have wide appeal, but I understood that when making it.

>>97901773
Yeah, until that leak, I just assumed it was like the human-shaped pokemon that people are normally horny for, or they had a common ancestor like poke-neanderthal. Not typhlosion. I see why they kept that hidden.

Bad Mewtwos go into the timeout corner. You don't want to go into the timeout corner, do you?

They will be well taken care of, and get to take care of the babies in the orphanage to help them recover.

>Not sure what societal change you're after for Revolutionize Life.

What kind of societal change do you think a supercharged Dommy Mommy Mewtwo Y who sees everyone, including humans, as babies who need to be taken care of? There have been naughty children, I mean look at all these orphans.

>>97901817
Good to know the games levelled up their plot. Again, my only disses about pokemon are from the literal first gen black-and-white gameboy era - hence why I wouldn't insult modern pokemon, since I know very little about it. But thanks for explaining this AZ thing. I still think that being forced to be 12 feet tall if you want to be immortal is a bit painful of a tradeoff.
>>97901828
Have it, my friend, it's all yours!
>>
>>97901817
>Scarlet/Violet had a tragic death I really liked
What? What are you talking about? Nobody died in that game.
Unless you mean the professor, in that case I don't think that counts since the originals were dead long before the game starts and the android replacement doesn't die, it gets sent to the past/future to close the hole from the other side.
>>
>>97901817
Additionally, if I hadn't had the chance of getting The Gardevoir, I would have spent my remaining 4 points and tera crystal to get the Pokemon expansion suit, for the last bit of power out of the CYOA.

Great job again.
>>
>>97901825
Yeah, I'd say that qualifies as a major societal change. Also that image looks *very* cropped for blue-board.

>>97901833
Happy to help explain. I wouldn't say newer pokemon games do anything revolutionary with the plot, but I'd say they're average rather than bad. Certainly an improvement over the old ones.
>I still think that being forced to be 12 feet tall if you want to be immortal is a bit painful of a tradeoff.
At least you don't have to sacrifice the souls of hundreds of living beings.

>>97901876
I guess I could have written it more accurately. The professor died before the events of the game, but Arven learning their fate (after having already been abandoned by his parents) and then losing the next-best-thing to a time machine was the tragic part I liked. I simplified my explanation to avoid going into any more plot or remembering how to do spoiler text on this site, but I feel like saying 'tragic death' got the gist of it across.

>>97901880
I was wondering why you hadn't tried to squeeze that option in. I suppose the Tera Crystals *are* hard to come by. Glad you enjoyed it!

>>
>>97901902
I don't think that death was tragic at all, and it already happened a long time ago so it's not "in the game". It's a cool emotional moment and the realization of Arwen that the professor was not as much of a shitty parent as he though was much deeper than usual pokemon plots, so I will aggree with that. The cool reveal about your bike was also kinda cool, but I predicted that from a mile away. Then again I also predicted the professor thing but that doesn't diminish the emotional impact. I would consider it more uplifting than tragic, overall it's a positive scene when it happens.

Writing a throuple romance with a blank player-insert character seems to have unique challenges. With a couple you don't need to shine much of a light on the player and it's easy to leave their characteristics, and how those characteristics affect the relationship, up to the imagination, and let the player decide how the pieces of the relationship fit. With a throuple there's two non-blank slate characters who end up having their own concrete, set dynamic, and it would feel odd to have just those two like that, while the player's dynamics with both of them are still in a wishy-washy fill-in-the-blanks state.

Feels like walking a tightrope between "railroading the player into being a specific pre-determined personality" and "accidentally turning the player into a no-personality third wheel". Much caution needed

Why the fuck would you ever do that? That has so many problems even before getting to how you write it. It's either cuckshit, gay, or both. It's a bad idea on all fronts. The only way to salvage it is if they are both girls, and even then it's more trouble than it's worth.

My masterpiece will be a CYOA. I have enough saved to last a year. Assuming compounding skill returns, after a year my skill at making CYOAs will be 1.1666414 quadrillion percent better than today.

Skills:
Electrochemistry to expand my creative horizons (psychedelics), and to mimic Endurance (meth).
Hand-Eye Coordination: Use my tools with masterful precision to increase my baseline before the multiplicative.
Composure: Tough choice between this and Perception, but I feel that never wasting my potential under pressure wins out.
Logic: The CYOAs will per perfectly thought out.
Conceptualization: This is between this and visual calculus, though Logic can do math almost as fast. My CYOAs will be holistically considered.
Social:
Volition: Never lose motivation to make CYOAs.
Empathy: My Cyoas will be emotionally resonant.

Death: Embodiment: Become the spirit of CYOA creation.

Broskis, if I can't monetize CYOA creation to fund my free passion projects, I don't think anyone can.

I remember my takeaway from the scene was being sad that after all that, Arven still wouldn't be able to see his parent again. And I figured that even though they died before the game, they had already abandoned him to do research well before dying - the dying just stopped the occasional phone calls.

Way too many points and not enough of the kind of stuff I'd actually want to use them on. Seems more geared towards giving players a power fantasy rather than a cozy adventure.

Not a bad cyoa by any means but just not one designed for me specifically.

I definitely would vote for a companion section but I'd be against using preestablished characters. Just grab art of a generic trainer and list their name, occupation and then a couple sentences about them. Their personality, pokemon, outlook and goals.
>>
>>97900790
So does signature type include previous forms? I don't know how I'm supposed to train up Primarina or Sylveon if not, so I think I'll have to take Any Species, but just to check.

Brock and Misty (Ash's original companions in the tv series) were literally just the first two Gym Leaders the player met in the original game, after all. Just name, town, and favorite pokemon type - everything else was added by the anime.

A male/male/female arc would be more interesting if the male love interest weren't such a one dimensional fetish object, I think.

I neither automatically designate the player character as male nor believe that a guy being feminine and wearing a dress has to be one dimensional or a fetish object.

Out of curiosity, I described the blood fairies to ChatGPT (as blood-aspected pixies), and asked it for what the "average" one would be like:

>A blood-aspected pixie in a modern fantasy world would be a fascinating character, blending elements of classic pixie folklore with darker, more complex magic. Here's how their characteristics might break down:

### **Physical Appearance**

Given their connection to blood, this type of pixie might appear more intense or eerie compared to their more whimsical counterparts. Their appearance could be delicate, but with hints of an unnerving, slightly macabre edge:

* **Size and Build**: Like traditional pixies, they’d be small, standing about 6 to 8 inches tall, but they might have a leaner, more sinewy build, reflecting their ability to manipulate the body and its lifeblood.
* **Wings**: Their wings could have a translucent, almost organic quality, possibly resembling delicate veins, veins of living tissue, or the pattern of blood vessels. Their shimmer might seem to pulse as if blood is flowing through them.
* **Skin Tone**: Their skin could have an unusual hue, perhaps a pale, ivory color tinged with crimson streaks or faint, dark veins just beneath the surface, signaling their connection to blood.
* **Eyes**: Their eyes might be unnervingly bright, shifting in hue from deep red to dark purple or black depending on their emotional state. These eyes could convey an eerie understanding of life and death, even in a glance.
>>
>>97902238
## **Personality**

Blood-aspected pixies would likely possess an intense, sometimes unsettling demeanor:

* **Cunning and Calculating**: They would have a sharp, manipulative edge to their personality, able to read others with almost unnatural precision. As they can control blood, they would likely understand the physical and emotional vulnerabilities of those around them, using this knowledge to their advantage.
* **Reserved or Aloof**: Unlike more playful or mischievous pixies, blood-aspected pixies might keep to themselves, their demeanor darker and more secretive. They'd prefer to work behind the scenes, watching and planning, often making deals with other supernatural beings, or even humans, to further their goals.
* **Moral Ambiguity**: Due to their ability to create binding agreements written in blood, these pixies would likely see the world in terms of contracts, exchanges, and power dynamics. They might have little care for human notions of right and wrong, valuing personal gain or maintaining the balance of their blood-based powers over any ethical concerns.

>>97902199
Sneasel is a fun companion pokemon. I've used both regional forms when playing through games before. I like how yours is naught, cute, and disobedient - makes me think he'll just run off and get into trouble.
Yeah, I had a bit of trouble balancing the points. I kept telling myself that it's 5 points for each additional companion pokemon and that it'd add up really quick, but I haven't seen a single person opt for a second.

>>97902214
With a signature type, you can't use an off-type for any serious battles (trainer battles or powerful wild pokemon), but you could use them for very weak wild pokemon to get some experience. You could also use day care services or not-so-rare xp candies. That's enough to get through the "leveling them up enough to gain the type needed to use them" phase, but it might be a little slow.

I'm working on my version of this modern Island cyoa (again), and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for the Nemesis section. Particularly looking for candidates that negate a strength of modern society, or embody a dangerous social problem.

So far, I'm looking at

1. The Butcher - similar to.the origonal cyoa, representing the corruption of industry

2. The Experiment - a provocative theory that can only be tested with human subjects in extremely cruel experiments has been handed down through academia since the late 19th century. And someone is testing it (again).

3. The It - the result of people saying they care, but not enough to actually do anything. A former abused child, the It is so twisted and scarred up that no one can even tell if it's male or female . . .and has starting kidnapping children into the sewers.

4.An unnamed hybrid of the Mad Hatter and the Joker. Embrace the madness and stop trying to make the world better!

5. The Machine/AI/the App - embodiment of pointlessness and mindless enjoyment. Sit back and enjoy your life while the world eats you and your potential!

6. Evil Politician (tentative)

7. Something involving human sacrifice and/or people being hunted for fun. (Very tentative)

Any thoughts or suggestions? And/or what problem in society would you enjoy beating the tar out of?

It's worse if the MC were a woman, I'd think. Not wanting to roleplay as a woman who occasionally has wholly heterosexual sex would be a serious lack of any theory of mind.

>>97902247
Yeah that's basically the plan for my Sneasel. I'm set up to lead a pretty cosy life so I need something to inject a little excitement and adventure.

I guess most people are happy to just imagine catching the rest of the Pokemon they want?

That's 80% the franchise. If you want to make people have to spend points, make them unlock pokemon slots - you only have two slots (for your companion and free cherished mon) without spending those 5 points.

What's your take on Giovanni (the head of Team Rocket)? Is he actually Ash's father?

I figure it makes the most sense to start from the beginning instead of skipping straight to the end. I actually wanted a Whimsicott, but I think Tinkatink is the most natural and correct Fairy starter for a traditional journey. It shouldn't be hard to catch a Cottonee to train with my magic talking box. I'll have it in radar mode to track down any Fairy types I pass by and train up a whole roster to switch between, naturally, with a portable PC Box to switch between them on the fly!

Floette and Clefairy might make more sense to switch places, but I like having Floette first because it fits the narrative I'm going for. I figure by studying her, I'll be able to better replicate her immortality. Specifically, my plan is harvest some people with my Pact magic and use their life force to revive the ghost girl as my totally normal, very sane, clearly not dead girlfriend. Just one should be technically sufficient, a life for a life, but if I jam a few extras in there, I might be able to stop her from growing old, like Floette.

I've never heard that theory. Even as a kid, I thought ash's dad died in the war, and served with LT Surge - given that he was an electric gym leader. I was an army brat though, so that probably colored my thinking.

That's a very visceral description. I'd personally have gone for deathly pale vampire-like complexion with striking red eyes and wings make of illuminant blood.

>>97902315
>>97902337
Yeah, I suppose a lot of the adventure appeal is in making the friends and catching the pokemon as you travel.

>>97902363
That's a difficult question. Ash is roughly analogous to Red and Gary is roughly analogous to Blue. Giovanni's son is Silver, not Red (I don't think those two are brothers). So I'm inclined to disagree with that theory. That said, Ash is in an entirely different canon than Red and Blue, so being "analogous" is probably insufficient evidence for anything more than a hunch.

>>97902369
Ooh, I love Tinkaton and Whimsicott. This thread has great taste in pokemon. I'd say trading one life for another is within the realm of what your Pacts can do - at least in this case where the soul is still hanging around. And the Floette is probably more okay with that since it requires consent and won't leave you for 3000 years. The Revival Weapon also could have brought her back, but that does come with the unfortunate downside of needing a lot of new clothes, which is why I assume that wasn't your first choice.
>>
>>97902417
>since it requires consent
Yes, technically, I would be purchasing rather than harvesting, which is sad. But it does mean my Pokemon will still like me if they figure out what I did, which is another major point of favor over Gigantor's rock beam. I guess making her be ten or eleven feet tall wouldn't be the end of the world, since I have the magic ring of wardrobe and the alternative is dying, but it's seriously inconvenient and would probably make her feel bad. That's why I'm willing to go so far as to compensate people for their sacrifices.
