WINTER CR MEME



CR MEME!
Another six(!) months have come and gone, so it is time for another CR meme. This time a winter themed one.

Please share your ideas for interactions you'd love your character to have, or plots you're rolling around in your head that might need a few more folks. Is your character looking for a friend? An enemy? A rival? You can find it all here. And remember, the more detailed, the better! We all want all the CR, but specific plans, or at least a specific direction you want to take something in, will really help out everybody involved.

Need a reminder of some things happening right now? The Nurse Joys need help with a disease outbreak among the Snorunts... and relatedly, characters might be experiencing bouts of random good and bad luck! We have a brand spanking new Quest Board for you to peruse! And, of course, there's always the calendar for miscellaneous weather and swarms.

Like before, this CR meme will also include a template specifically geared towards Rocket CR. Please fill it in to let our Rocket members know how you feel about getting your characters involved in some crime.

CHARACTER
Name Loop; [personal profile] loopsiedaisy
Canon: In Stars And Time
Character Warnings: here!

Cliffnotes (expand):
Loop is full of secrets. Delicious, delicious secrets (aka spoilers). If you don't care about that, there's more info about them on their app.

Otherwise: in VR, a little guy in a big wizard hat! Who... isn't a wizard. Generally trying very hard to give off an impression of a friendly, cheerful jokester - but with a surprising amount of totally mundane topics that will make them change the subject or go weirdly silent. (It's been months and they have yet to tell a single person their name...?)

Possibly interesting to characters who (highlight for spoilers):
- have experience with time loops
- are interested in stars and space
- have feelings about having their body changed without their input (maybe you weren't human before VR?)
- are in Self-Loathing Recovery and need a support group of peers
- love/hate puns
- have past or current Identity Issues (particularly about being replaced, being a "worse" version of someone, etc)
- have complicated feelings about their culture/heritage (or lack thereof/disconnection from)
- have memory problems. Come here, all ye magical amnesiac JRPGs... and folks with unmagical memory issues due to trauma!

Things I'm planning to have them do in the near future: help with Snorunts (around Saffron or nearby towns in Kanto), scoop up a Type: Null from Silph, then return to Johto and mayyybe attempt their first badge. The last is very negotiable, I am a-okay with them getting diverted!

Looking for (expand):
- I want Pokemon team CR! Maybe our characters bumped into each other once, and one of Loop's Pokemon decided it was Best Friends with one of your character's team. Or Bitter Rivals! Or simply Casual Acquintances that enjoy debating which human fashion is the weirdest.
- For existing CR, I'd like to work up to a situation where Loop ends up with a Pokemon from them! Intentional trades? Accidental swaps? Eggs? I don't care, I just like it as a source of additional CR and sentimental feelings...
- This one is a Stretch because I'm not sure how many characters are even doing a Pokemon Journey at this point, let alone in the same region... but I would still love to get Loop a Johto travel buddy. ;v;
- Would you like a witness or participant in Your Character Drama/Plot/Goal? Someone to work for a week in your character's business/gym/whatever? Something else?? I am waggling a Loop in your direction

Willing to handwave (expand):
We don't have CR yet, and you want to handwave some simple encounters to kickstart CR before threading? Absolutely! In the past few months, Loop has been around: Ecruteak City, MooMoo Farm, Olivine City, Goldenrod City, Mt. Mortar (and routes in between). In January they're taking a side trip to Kanto so will be around Saffron City & the general surroundings/nearby cities. Let me know if you'd like to handwave:
- a plain old not-very-memorable Pokemon battle
- your character helping Loop with their Pokegear (mostly before ~December)
- Loop bumping into your character at their job, or your character running into Loop doing odd jobs
- just kind of seeing each other around town/routes
- passing Pokemon interactions that neither of our characters noticed... but the Pokemon Remember Each Other

We do have CR, but you want to handwave something happening in between threads? Have at it, let me know what you're thinking of!

Recent post: I have one for the Snom Storm in December! And plan to tag out or post on the Snorunt log.

[personal profile] outofsynth 2025-01-06 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
"Existing CR" might be kind of a stretch for these two considering their current interactions, buuuuuut we could maybe have some breeder and definitely-a-breeder-and-not-at-all-a-Rocket CR?

I haven't looked at the movepools they'd produce yet, but looking at their rosters there are definitely some possibilities if any of these were ones you think might be fun for Loop's team.

Alfinse could pair with Min's Azumarill, Alolan Vulpix, Gogoat, Alolan Sandslash, Skitty, HA Fuecoco, Mabosstiff, or shiny Eevee . Burnoît also has the same options minus Azumarill.

Fleuirk's only option is Min-Gi's Eastern Gastrodon, but! That's something.
loopsiedaisy: (🌗 But I'll light up everything again)

[personal profile] loopsiedaisy 2025-01-07 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
So Loop has not even slightly touched breeding yet. Which is to say: this sounds like the perfect opportunity for their first time getting Saddled With Eggs, and possibly Min getting to introduce someone who is even less of a breeder to the ropes. (Also I swear Loop will be less of a jerk when human shaped,)

And Min should also introduce Loop to his band's music! Confession, I wanted to tag your album post but Loop not understanding half of what they were saying made it... tricky... Commercial music in their setting would probably have been at the stage of sheet music.

As far as the breeding options: I'm open to any of the above! I honestly care more about the CR than moves/etc, so it's really just if there's anything you're interested in! If I have to tiebreak I'd probably be picking based on type coverage and not much else, haha.

That said: Alfinse is the non-battler so he probably won't be contributing much, unless you specifically want to try for a Buizel. Burnoît and Fleuirk are at least leveling up, and I can justify Loop grabbing a TM for one of them before Suddenly Eggs!
outofsynth: (we'd like to feel you're acceptable)

[personal profile] outofsynth 2025-01-07 11:46 am (UTC)(link)
Heck yeah, I'm here for that. Min has actually had a few clutches by now, and while mostly not intentional... he has been here a while and does not want his legitimacy questioned so has studied up a bit.

Also down for introducing Loop to his music. And totally understandable, but it shouldn't be too hard to find a way for it to come up with them.

I will take a look and get back to you with any fun egg options!

slides in here taking the cue from what you said on my Plurk - Doppio doesn't travel around much anymore but he does spend most of his time in Johto 8|a Particularly Ecruteak and Goldenrod. I wonder what we could do with this...

alsO I JUST HIGHLIGHTED YOUR SPOILERS AND. man i really wonder what Loop would make of Doppio's Deal
loopsiedaisy: (🌕 Oh my god; what am I going to do)

[personal profile] loopsiedaisy 2025-01-15 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
Just realized I hadn't actually answered this, wheeze

I know I was curious about the Legendary Seekers... realistically Loop would most likely only seek out the group to find out how to Avoid All Legendaries, they want absolutely nothing to do with any of them. But I would be interested in getting Loop involved, so I'm sure I can find a way to make it happen :3c Doppio only being in there to spy makes it even funnier to me, honestly

👀 and HMMM I think the contexts are different enough that Loop wouldn't immediately relate it back to Their Situation... but... depends on how it's presented...
epitaffio: (Default)

[personal profile] epitaffio 2025-01-15 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
god now there's a curious angle. why are you afraid of legendary Pokemon, little guy... don't you think it'd be Neat to see one in the flesh...

AND YEAH presentation may be an issue, especially since... Doppio almost certainly isn't going to be talking about any of it of his own volition 8|a we will need to contrive circumstances, I believe

CHARACTER
Name Emporio Alnino; [personal profile] seacub
Canon: JJBA: Stone Ocean
Cliffnotes: Emporio here is something of a veteran, who arrived Just young enough that tabloids could note the weird ghost-friendly blond kid and go 'hey is that Morty's kid or something??'

They haven't given up on that, so he's just decided to try not wearing purple for a while.

Anyway, he's 16, very into dudes, and just recently moved into New Bark Town with a houseboat...Because he's hopefully going to set up a Gym around there!

On the OOC end I need to polish the info page so I can go ahead and apply for it. On the IC end, he's going to be a bit distracted helping Jotaro with Snorunt stuff. The poor snorunts!!
Looking for: Nothing specifically, but that's because Emporio has a lot going on so there's not really any box I can think of that drastically needs filling. It's like...

He's not BUSY busy, but there's enough plans that I can't think of any Precise form of CR he needs to get going right now.
Recent post: tragically i am still working on a post for this month oh nooooo


ROCKET PARTICIPATION FORM
Character’s trainer class: Trainer
Are you down for Rocket shenanigans?: Yes
What type of things are you okay with?: As an aside it's probably worth noting that Emporio is all but adopted by Jolyne (who retired), who is married to Carly (a retired Rocket -alpha-)...So essentially he knows the Rocket deal, and Will use it against you!

✓ Battle encounters with Rockets
✓ Non-battle, but still hostile encounters with Rockets (think something like getting robbed of a rare item or getting scammed)
✓ He's used to getting slammed with these guys trying to recruit him so honestly it's just very funny every time they try-
outofsynth: (then they showed me a world)

[personal profile] outofsynth 2025-01-06 06:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I feel like with Carly retired we should probably get some CR going here. And the Carly connection does give them some reason to know each other at least in passing.
seacub: (:])

[personal profile] seacub 2025-01-07 01:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh definitely !! I'd be happy to sort out what those things in passing would already be, too- at the very least even Without her involved, Team Rocket itself has a sort of...running gag that started up and then I just.

Never dropped it..? (I think it started with a snorunt fortune...)

The tldr is that in his first year he cleared out the Voltorb Flip, and the Rockets have wanted to recruit ever since.................
outofsynth: (a building in the distance)

[personal profile] outofsynth 2025-01-07 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Look, running with Snorunt fortunes and never dropping them is a lot of fun and I cannot fault you for that. I don't think he'd be trying to recruit himself, but that probably is something he is aware of if nothing else.

I don't think Min heads out to the islands super often, but when he does he probably makes a point of visiting Carly then. So outside of that they've probably had occasional summer encounters where they both happen to be there?
seacub: (:])

[personal profile] seacub 2025-01-08 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
Summer encounters make sense- Emporio spent a lot of time staying around Armin's Gym for the last year and a bit, so he would've been able to visit a lot more than Min for sure; but that just means he stood a fair chance of encountering the guy when he visited Carly after all.

He would have likely tried helping around Jolyne's end of the gym while there, but he'd have been as friendly as ever
outofsynth: (respectable oh presentable a vegetable)

[personal profile] outofsynth 2025-01-11 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! That sounds like an ideal thing to handwave. I think that with putting in the work to get their album out by December they probably wouldn't have visited much over the past few months, but that still leaves plenty of opportunities for them to have got to know each other in passing.
loopsiedaisy: (🌠 Am I being what you need?)

[personal profile] loopsiedaisy 2025-01-07 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
It's gonna be a little bit before Loop swings back around to New Bark Town, but perhaps... if Emporio is planning to hire anyone to help build The Gym, or needs some kind of chores done once it is built (help feeding All Those Pokemon?)... maybe an odd job for Loop? 👀 And they can get to know each other that way?

Otherwise I think Loop would be intrigued by the houseboat!
seacub: (: ' D)

[personal profile] seacub 2025-01-07 01:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooooo! I'd love for that to happen!!

There's definitely going to be plenty to do if the gym goes through- with Carly's I sort of...went simple, but for Emporio I really went all out on what it's doing.

At the very least, All Those Pokemon definitely applies here huhuhuu....

CHARACTER
Name JW; [personal profile] goldeneyeball
Canon: Original Character
Cliffnotes: JW is a gangly foul-mouthed hippie and involuntary time traveler and monster slayer from the little town of Hawksaw Mississippi. He was kind of bullied into the monster slaying part and HE FEELS SOME KIND OF WAY ABOUT IT. But here in Pokemon land he has healthcare, glasses, a hot girlfriend, and all the therapy animals he could want. Originally from 1974 (with a pitstop in 2007) he's settled in the futuristic land of Johto quite well. He likes to think he's calmed down with the help of Rose, but JW can still be pretty prickly if you ruffle his feathers or inconvenience him. The man holds grudges like it's his hobby. Unemployed.

Looking for:
Friends - looking for folks for JW to pal around and shoot the shit with. He loves riding his Rapidash so riding budies are always a plus. He also smokes hella weed (persim zest).
Battle - JW likes a casual battle and likes talking about different techniques.
Enemies - I love playing JW when he has a grudge because he can be so ridiculous and petty. Feel free to get on his bad side!



CHARACTER
Name Beetlejuice; [personal profile] bugbeverage
Canon: Beetlejuice the Musical the Musical the Musical
Cliffnotes: Beetlejuice is the worst. He's reactive, petulant, aggressive, gross, and perpetually horny. Previously a ghoul cursed into an intangible and invisible state, Beetlejuice runs rampant across Pokemon Land with his ragtag team. He works odd jobs here and there but gets most of his cash from Pokemon tinder and battling. While his team isn't the best, he's very competative and not above steamrolling a lower-leveled trainer if they get on his nerves. Or sometimes just for no reason. The man craves A T T E N T I O N and will do anything to get it, positive or negative.

CHARACTER
Name Henry Townshend; [personal profile] no_ufo_ending
Canon: Silent Hill 4: The Room
Cliffnotes: On the outside, Henry is very very normal. During his long run in Johto, Henry has let his hair grow to his shoulders and now he's working on a beard. He's one of those horror game survival protags so of course he's traumatized but he has all his Pokemon and his little found family to ground him. He's a pretty shy guy but makes an effort to be polite. His main hobby is photography. Henry doesn't battle much, though he keeps saying he's going to eventually go after a badge or two. His Pokemon are glorified pets. He works on the warp circuit as a Pokemon Center receptionist. He also sells poke'weed so if you need a hookup, let him know.

Looking for:
Friends - Henry almost exclusively hangs out with his housemates. I'd love to give him some buddies to meet up and chat with or battle.
Rival - Henry is like...the least confrontational person I play but I think it would be funny if he had random beef with someone. Nothing overly serious but it is enrichment in his enclosure.
Weird Art Friends - Henry is a weird art kid. I'd love for him to meet folks to collab with and do weird artist things
A Date-- Henry is actively on the look-out for someone to date. It has been TEN. YEARS. and he is over it. While he isn't one to flirt (he is very very very rusty) he is making an effort to go to places where folks are bound to talk and pair off. It's a small effort, but it's there. One of his housemates may have made him a profile on

I thought our fourth wall thread with Henry and Min-Gi was a lot of fun! I'd love it if they became closer. For more specific ideas, Min's definitely more of a music guy but does draw sometimes. It seems like one of the few hobbies he has he isn't super uptight about in some form.

It might. Also be kind of fun for him to be annoyed by BJ. He could try and encourage normalcy? But I think it's more likely Min-Gi would end up taking the bait every time.

CHARACTER
Name Min-Gi Park; [personal profile] outofsynth
Canon: Infinity Train
Cliffnotes: Min's been here for over two years at this point. He's settled. He's happy. He very much considers it home, though that's a largely subconscious sentiment. He's an adept trainer with some strong teams, but his big passion is his two man band. Chicken Choice Judy have a decent following in Kanto, and now they've released their first album should probably start working on winning over Johto.

Looking for: Deeper relationships! A lot of his close CR are gone now, and I've admittedly not been the most active in recent months. I'm open to positive and negative CR, and I've tried to think of a few starting points to spark ideas.

- If your character is any type of musician or has a big interest in music that's always a good starting point!

- Min-Gi is allegedly a breeder. As a fraud he's no good for helping get your shinies or hidden abilities, but he can maybe help you out with TM/egg moves.

Alternatively, since he does have a good amount of HA Pokémon and shinies by now he could collaborate with another breeder. Here is a list of his public team! It's very out of date. Sorry. I do need to add a female shiny Eevee and shiny Lunatone, though for now at least they will not have any interesting moves or abilities. Honestly, I'm thinking Lunatone is likely not even hatched yet, buuuut maybe a future possibility for a breeder with a Ditto?

- Longer term I think it's more than time to start work on outing him as a Rocket. I'll probably use the bulletin board quests as a way to start forcing his hand in more participation, and having him become more nervous about his role. Even though I've lagged on this already I don't want to rush it so may look at building up to this to happen around mid-year?

Oh, and he shares a body with that very same powerful mafia boss, whose name is Diavolo. It's sort of an anime DID thing but also literally two souls in one body. You know how it goes.

Thanks to his professional experience, Doppio seeks to climb Team Rocket's ranks, but he puts up an upstanding front as a traveling trainer - or at least he used to, before his prestigious position in the Legendary Seekers (of which he became a member for the sole purpose of spying for Team Rocket, shhhh) began taking up more and more of his time. It sure is hard to juggle a double life!

Looking for: I am always open to all kinds of CR, especially since Doppio, as his own one-body travel group, can be a little isolated! Unlikely friends worming their way into his heart are always great, and I loooove villain CR no matter what form it takes. I'm really interested in doing quests, Rocket or otherwise, so hopefully it'll be easier for me to find excuses to throw him at people now!

(Also, I said "travel group", but realistically, Doppio has probably spent most of the last year going back and forth between Ecruteak, Goldenrod and Saffron City. It sure is busy, being a Rocket Alpha on spy duty!!!)

Oh, and this year's going to be the year. He's finally beating Clair. I HAVE to make it happen.

On a more OOC level, I really want to get more involved in things again, to the best of my ability! I need to look out for people to add on Plurk/Discord... 8/a

Are you down for Rocket shenanigans?: YYYY
What type of things are you okay with?: Doppio is not at all opposed to being a criminal, so if you need any Rocket action, here's a useful guy!

PLAYER
Name: Sailor G
Contact: [plurk.com profile] sailorgundam06 (this is my most active and frankly easiest to access method of contact), respective character journals, Discord: sailorgundam, or any of my respective character journals
Notes: So, oof... I've been less than present here. I am very sorry. I have some super old threads that if anyone wants to drop, feel free to let me know. Otherwise, I'll backtag until the end of time if the thread feels like it can continue. I'm eastern US with a M-F 9-5 work-from-home job, so my tagging can vary depending on my workload. I also work at running conventions, so that can sometimes take up quite a bit of my outside-work time.

Romelle

[personal profile] questioneverything 2025-01-07 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
CHARACTER
Name Romelle; [personal profile] questioneverything
Canon: Voltron: Legendary Defender
Cliffnotes: Romelle is a judgmental bundle of nerves who tries to be the voice of reason among a group of crazy risk takers (Voltron Paladins aren't known for playing it safe unless they're Hunk). She doesn't like fighting, but will do what needs to be done in tough situations. She enjoys learning about new things and isn't afraid to ask a ton of questions. She sometimes jumps to conclusions, often assuming the worst possible scenarios with everything. Her goals are to cultivate a breeding service and eventually create a berry/apricorn farm.
Looking for: People to even her out. Romelle needs people who can calm her down when she panics and balance her doom-and-gloom tendencies. She also needs people who are willing to encourage her to continue participating in contests and take risks, like finally making the commitment to her farm idea. I'm also open to shipping.

Duo

[personal profile] divine_braid 2025-01-07 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
CHARACTER
Name Duo Maxwell; [personal profile] divine_braid
Canon: New Mobile Report Gundam Wing
Cliffnotes: Outgoing and happy-go-lucky late teens. Casual attitude and loves to give people nicknames. He has a kind of dark sense of humor sometimes and is a typical mecha anime tortured teen with a tragic past and trauma. He deals with it by burying it, because that's clearly healthy, and pretending he's a-okay all the time. He's open and friendly, and yet still manages to not disclose anything about himself until he gets close enough to someone. He's very loyal to and protective of those he considers friends, though. He's currently a reluctant Rocket trying to figure out how to navigate suddenly being the "bad guy" in life.
Looking for: Friends, Frenemies, Acquaintances, etc. I'm even down for negative CR, though not just for negative CR's sake.

Keith

[personal profile] tempredmental 2025-01-07 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
CHARACTER
Name Keith; [personal profile] tempredmental
Canon: Voltron: Legendary Defender
Cliffnotes: Grumpy and reluctant leader of Team Voltron with a secret soft center revealed to his friends and found family. Bristly exterior and lots of walls to get through, but loyal and protective once you do. Keith's been moping since Allura left and dealing with his grief in lots of mildly unhealthy ways, like overtraining, spending long stretches of time on camping trips, and pushing his humanized limits (he's half-Galra back home, so being humanized in VR has affected things like his endurance and durability).
Looking for: Keith needs someone to motivate him back into doing things again. He's kind of put life on hold, and stopped doing the badge challenge. He needs more CR again as many people he was close to have gone. He's not ready to consider another relationship at this point, but friends, found family, mentor types... also, giving him someone he could be a mentor type to would be a good thing for him.

Luna

[personal profile] looneylovegood 2025-01-07 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
CHARACTER
Name Luna Lovegood; [personal profile] looneylovegood
Canon: Harry Potter
Cliffnotes: Luna wants to work on her Dex. To her, it reminds her of Newt Scamander's book, Fantasic Beats and Where to Find Them, and that's one of her favorites. She kind of wants to do a little offshoot of the Dex focusing on "less popular" Pokémon... the ones that aren't traditionally cute, and maybe aren't super powerful for battle. And, she'll probably call it something silly like, Fantastic Pokémon and Why You Should Have One. As a breeder, those are the Pokémon she wants to focus on, and possibly even start a little shelter/rescue for them.
Looking for: Just about anything, even negative CR if things roll that way. Though, I'm not a fan of negative CR for the sake of negative CR.
