Incognito Isle - The (Pokémon Only) Treasure Hunt Zone!
Hey y'all!
As Marion alluded to in her economy post, I've cooked up a bit of a proposal for you to peruse. Since everyone is keen on incorporating a bit more RP into their daily lives, I decided it might be a good idea to make getting elusive items an RP opportunity. This is basically a proposal for a modern Shop of All Trades, but instead of riddles or shards or whatnot, your Pokémon would go on a treasure hunt to find you the items you seek! The big selling point to this zone would be that it would be Pokémon Only - no trainers allowed - and would provide a little variety in your adventuring. I imagine the zone would probably function best as a Free For All Zone due to it serving a pretty specific purpose (or perhaps a modified one, like having no set ZOs but allowing any ZO of other zones take people on). The mods also suggested that it might be a good way to allow for people to get Mega Stones and Z-Crystals, especially if they're not made buyable (it was also suggested that you might need to go through a trial to get them, though I haven't incorporated that in my first draft). The adventures would probably be somewhere between short- and medium-length, depending on the kind of treasure you're after. The zone is split into 8 areas, each representing two types. If you're searching for an Iron Coat to evolve your Onix, for example, you might send an expedition team of Onix, Tropius and Vibrava to the Craggy Crater, and after some antics, be rewarded by the local Pokémon with the item you're looking for. However, it wouldn't just be exclusive to evo items - you could go to just poke around without any specific item in mind and pick up some of the other hold items, like Shell Bells and Glass Items and maybe something else on your Memekiss list. Or you could even just roam around and have fun! The details aren't exactly all ironed out yet (I drafted this in a flurry of inspiration last night lol) so input is definitely appreciated! As a note: I'm not really looking to ZA this zone, but if people would like, I wouldn't mind sort of being its caretaker (more of an SO I suppose?) and just overseeing it and helping with items and whatnot. I'd also be glad to hand it off to someone else! I have plenty of responsibilities as it is so I'm not exactly scrambling to add another lol. Also I want to thank the mods for the idea and help developing it, Okiku for her expanded evolution zone suggestion (which this is built off!), and ABL for the pretty colors! Without further adieu, I give you Incognito Isle!

Seems to be in the same spirit as my Guildhouse suggestion, so I'm certainly not against it.

I don't see why not. I sounds like a mixture between PokePelago and Mystery Dungeon. I like the chance of finding Mega Stones too.

I loooove the idea of a Pokémon only zone. I think it'll be perfect for giving my team more personality and developing their characters. So the item collecting is largely incidental to me to be perfectly honest. xd But I do like the ability to find treasure too!
10/10 A++ hearty recommendations etc ps ur welcome for the colour codes bb glad to help n.n

<3 it. My only slight concern is what exactly are the items you get from the adventures (as it might clash with the idea of getting evolution items in the Evolution Zone) but otherwise I'm A-Ok with it =b Especially with the Pokémon-only thing.

I'm on Emi's side there that Jeri's zone should encompass Evo items as well. Further discussion on that topic is more appropriate in the Evo-zone chat.

It would be a good chance for Team Flash Fire to make their appearance, so I'm all for it!

Okay so let's move on this a little! Below is a tentative item distribution list. All evo items are somewher
Spoiler: show You'll get somewhere between 3-5 items for an average adventure (3 if you're getting a specific evo item or something a little rarer/nicer, along with a few more common items, five if you're not after a particular evo item, four if you want to give a few niceish items). I'll probably go ahead and test this as a full FFZ for now and we can restrict it later, but I think they'll be a hard limit of two updatees for the time being (we can reassess based on supply/demand). Since Pokémon's trainers will be on a two-day cruise, I figure they could visit up to two areas per trip (one on day one, one on day two). They'd also get little adventure bags that render the items inert temporarily so Pokémon aren't forcibly stone evolved or whatnot. Also Pokémon should probably venture in teams of two or three for that reason (and others). I wouldn't mind some suggestions on additional items to put in if people want to help balance out the distribution a bit. If there are no objections, I think I might get this running this weekend! |
