Registration Steps - Member Profile
Following completing your Registration and passing the test, it is important to create a Member's Profile. This profile will be your way to keep track of all your information surrounding Fizzy Bubbles and it is important that you keep it up to date for your Zone Updators and Shop Owners.
Spoiler: show This example includes the needed information alongside the optional picture. However, you are free to customize your profile as much as your want with fonts, colours, etc. As long as it includes all the needed information about the Pokemon themselves. So long as it is up to date, it is completely up to you how you display it. You may also include sprites/pictures if you so desire. Linking to everything you have obtained is mandatory.

Currency
There are currently three types of currencies within FB.
Linking The majority of statistics in FB such as levels and moves rely on the principle of honour and trust. However, a few specific accounts need to be kept tracked off and require a link for every deposit and withdrawal.

Zones
The adventures that you are going to embark upon in Fizzy Bubbles will take place in special threads called zones, which cater to specific environments and are posted on the main page of the FB subforum. Zones are interactive stories between you and the person updating you - you might encounter puzzles, traps or other predicaments invented by your updater; it's important to think creatively and respond to these situations the way you think your trainer character would! Sometimes, a battle can occur whenever you run into a Pokémon in a zone. Your Pokémon can use any move it has ever learned. It is not restricted to the 4 Moves as it is in the game. Whenever a Pokémon is KOed, the Pokémon that participated in the KO may gain a level at the updater's discretion. If there are multiple Pokémon battling against a single Pokémon, the level distribution will be decided by the updator and the updator alone. Their decisions are final. If you wish to capture a Pokémon, you may capture it after it has been KOed or if the Pokemon, through the adventure's storyline, becomes willing to be caught. KOing a Pokémon will increase the likelihood of the capture. Various Pokéballs will also alter the chance of capturing it. You cannot capture a Legendary Pokémon at this time - any Legendary Pokémon you run into are for the purpose of the storyline only. Any attempt at throwing a Pokéball at it will always backfire.

Shops
FB Shops are mainly used to train your Pokémon, though they do offer other facilities. Below are brief overviews of each shop, but please don't rely on these descriptions to base your knowledge upon. Each individual shop has a more detailed account of their purpose in their introductory post which is often more up-to-date than this thread. The below shop titles all provide direct links to their respective threads, so please be sure to read them. While not mandatory, we ask that those with exceptionally large signatures turn them off when posting in shop threads.

Moves
In Fizzy Bubbles, Pokemon are not limited to four moves. A Pokemon has access to their entire natural movepool, and it is possible for them to learn moves unnaturally as well. Here are a few examples of how Pokemon may learn attacks naturally or unnaturally, and potential restrictions:

Free RP Areas
Free RP Areas are places for socialization among trainers and their Pokemon. Rules are relaxed here, and the primary focus is on cooperative storytelling. Pokemon and items WILL NOT be rewarded here - all RP here is strictly unofficial!
