Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Universal Heroes

[Storm]

???: Realize that you crashed by some pokemon and that you look like a total dumbass.

[Pokeball]

~> C: Confront
~> ?: Figure out that you looked like a dumbass

You have heard enough of this bozo yelling at the sky like an idiot and come to the conclusion that he has no idea that you're standing right behind him. You figure it's now or never so you call out to the strange sky pikachu, he turns around and has an odd look on his face, he had no idea you were standing there, and uncomfortably laughs and replys

Carmen : Hey! Crater boy!
???: Oh what?-*turns around* OH... H-hey...
Carmen: You better stay back or else!
???: What?
Carmen: Don't you step out of the crater! Or I'll have to use force!
???: Listen Lady Hothead, I just fell out of the sky, am confused as to where the hell i am and dont remember anything besides a disco rave room and an annoying voice
Carmen: So... you're not going to attack me or my friend?
???: I just fell out of the sky, you think i'm in any real state to battle?
Carmen: You have a point.

???: So uh... i guess you heard me yellin' at the sky then?
Carmen: Yeah, i did. What exactly were you yelling about?
???: Well, I wake up in some funky disco rave room and some voice is tellin' me stuff that i dont give a damn about and then he wants me to do a stupid questionnaire
Carmen: Did you do it?
???: God no. Its like " DO YOU LIKE MUSIC BLUH BLUH BLUH?" or something stupid like that so i told him i wasn't going to answer any questions and he eventually gave in.
Carmen: Wow, i would of thought that a magic rave voice would of been harder to control
???: Nope, easy stuff. Then i chose my partners whom... i cant even remember what i chose, stupid rave voice. Anyways after he completed his job he dropped me off in the stratosphere and i crash landed here.
Carmen: That's quite a story Mark.
???: You're tellin' me- Wait did you just reference "The Room"?
Carmen: I-i guess? That's just the first thing that popped into my head
???: Anyways, So why are YOU here in this forest and who's that blue ball behind you?
Carmen: Right, well, I'm Carmen and that's my best friend Rolly behind me.
???: Rolly? That's kind of an odd name, is it short for something?
Carmen: Well, i met him when he was trying to learn Roll-Out. Sadly Poliwags and their evolutionary tree can't learn it. He did look pretty funny so i call him Rolly since no one really knows his real name. Honestly I don't even think he knows what his name is.
???:Really? Poor guy. But what are you doing in the woods? I'm assuming you're not going on a picnic.
Carmen: We're heading to the Bureau of Knights to be Guardians. We may not have the most balanced team but, i figure me and Rolly make a good enough team.
???: Bureau of Knights? Mind explaining? I'm not from here so excuse my cultural ignorance.
Carmen: Basically, way back when. The world was corrupt and controlled by Ghost and Physic Pokemon. Lucario, started a rebel force of Pokemon and rose up and conquered the baddies and made everyone equal. He started the Bureau of Knights make sure Guardians would keep everything in order. The others from the groups have started other Orders, some of the more popular ones are "Exploration Teams" and "Rescue Teams" all in the benefit of helping Pokemon.
???: And why do you want to join?
Carmen: because i want to make a difference and not just be a waste of space, Rolly doesn't know where exactly we're going because he's kind of a pansy so it's a surprise to him.
???: Well thanks for the info, I guess'll go find a town, if you have those here, and see if i can put myself to good use.
Carmen: Hang on, why don't you come with us? With an electric type we'll have better type coverage. Its not like you're doing anything anyways
???: Sure, why not. I guess it would be good to make a difference here, even if it isn't my home world.
Carmen: Great! But first things first, whats YOUR name? You never said

You cant actually remember your name so i guess you'll need a new one. Oh well, That's life.

[Vyro P. Dragon III]

Douchy McAss

[Kíeros]

> "Pikachu". Because you're so great you don't even need a name.

[Pokeball]

~> ?: Douchy McAss

You enter the best name possible along with his best interests in mind. You think it's an excellent name with an exotic spelling to it. He states that such a name is too luxurious for him and he would like for you to try again please

[Kíeros]

> AssHat. It obviously is telling you your name since you got it wrong.

[Storm]

I like to be serious about my names.
> Sytruan. I thought it up long ago and it stuck. Its perfect for any character.

[Shailsnic]

I'm going to give him a basic name, Spark should do.

[CaptainDraco]

Pika???: Attempt rare and highly dangerous "making FRENDS" sequence.

[Wessolf27]

Spark sounds good for our questionable protagonist.

[causticlyOptimitious]

Camilla.

Cami > Be a girl, surprising everybody.

[Pokeball]

~> Spark ♂
~> Spark: Make friends

The name is imputed and you are rewarded with another Green O, it doesn't do anything besides let you know that it likes the name but it still makes you feel good. Kind of like a gold sticker on a test or paper in school. So i guess we should do a bio for this yellow rat huh? Well i think its about time seeing as he was the first character introduced.


Your name is Spark. You are currently in the form of a PIKACHU. You used to be HUMAN but as of EVENTS YOU ALREADY SAW your not anymore but WOULD LIKE TO BE HUMAN AGAIN at SOME POINT. You are conversing with a CHARMANDER named CARMEN who is KIND OF PRETTY for a LIZARD. You plan to follow her and HER PASSED OUT friend ROLLY to some BUREAU OF SOMETHING. You can be KIND OF A DICK at certain points to the extent where it might come off as SASSY. As of right now you have NO IDEA of how to DEFEND YOURSELF and you are SUFFERING FROM AMNESIA either from THE CRASH or from THE RAVE ROOM VOICE. You have a VARIETY OF INTERESTS such as BEING SARCASTIC, watching YOUTUBE VIDEOS which will be HARD SEEING AS THERE IS NO YOUTUBE HERE, and PLAYING VIDEO GAMES. You don't have a COMMUNICATION NAME yet but you TALK IN A SHAD OF GOLD that looks like that.



You tell Carmen your name she says it suits you. Whether that be your sparky personality or the fact that your a rat that shoots lightning, you never bothered to ask. You and Carmen investigate Rolly because he's been kinda passed out for a while now, you may have actually caused him to faint on impact. Oh well, still no need to go over the fainting mechanics of this universe or the next because Spark hasn't fainted yet, wait what?

Spark: So how long is he gonna be out for? Do you have any idea?
Carmen: I've never actually had someone fall out of the sky on my best friend before so i wouldn't know.
Spark: You said you met him trying to learn Roll Out right?
Carmen: Yeah, why do you ask?
Spark:Why was he trying to learn it?
Carmen: Rolly has always been picked on by other Pokemon because he's a lot "rounder" then most Pokemon around the town. He figured if he could learn Roll-out he could teach them a thing or two about messing with them but as you stated, he can't learn it.
Spark: Actually, do you mind teaching me about combat? I figure if I'm gonna be helpin' ya, i might as well know what I'm doin'.
Carmen: You're right! I can explain formal battles to you right now but a Brute battle might get Rolly hurt, even at a distance.
Spark: Should we move him then?
Carmen: Yeah, help me Roll him over there so he's out of the way.

You and Carmen move Rolly to a safe position onto the comfier grass. Carmen directs you to stand in between the two trees by the crater, standing across from her.

Carmen: So this is the set up for a Formal battle, the style will look pretty familiar I'm sure. Formal battles are kind of like the Pokemon equivalent to the dual where they take ten paces, except its a lot cooler. Its turn based and the first one who gets their opponent to Zero wins. Wanna try it?
Spark: Sure, why not. I'm here to learn Right?

She points at you with a huge smirk and braces herself, you figure you better do the same before you're caught off guard by something

Carmen: YOU'RE GOING DOWN RAT-BOY, PREPARE TO GET SCORCHED. I HOPE YOU BROUGHT BRNHEAL.
Spark: OH, IT IS SO ON LIZARD BREATH.

Carmen: So this is an organized battle that goes by turns. You attack, i attack, you attack, etc. You have 2 types of moves, Offensive and Defensive. You can attack your opponent with Tackle or you can use Growl and lower their attack power. There is also 2 types of offensive, Physical and special. Physical attacks attack the opponent with your body making contact, using your strength stat, where as Special attacks attack from a distance and run of Special Attack. Now, here is where there is a big change between Human battling and Formal Battles.

DIALOG

Carmen: This is your Attack Roster, every single attack you will ever learn goes into this Roster and you can use and access it at anytime, not to mention there is No Power Point system. The restrictions on moves are for human benefits because you don't want a Pokemon spamming hyper beam a thousand times in a row. But there's a flaw as for example if you were to use Thunderbolt for 3 years, it be silly to think that you could just forget a move like that, so as long as you remember your moves you can have a full Roster. The Roster is organized by type of attack, Normal being at the top, followed by your main type, secondary type and then extra fluff in alphabetical order according by type. Those are the General basics of a Formal battle, the rest is basically the same as a trainer battle that the humans take part in.

Spark: Thanks for teachin' me that stuff, it'll be good for sparing and training. But what about Brute battles?
Carmen: Those are probably what you'll encounter in Dungeons, its more or less a free-for-all
Spark: So, now that we've gotten to know each other better, would you like to be friends?
Carmen: Absolutely!

You attempt the Highly dangerous "Making Friends" scene



You shake paws/claws/whatever and succeed. it is very heartwarming and fills you with a crapton of warm fuzzies. MMM WARM FUZZIES SO GOOD.



You have now joined/created a Party, and now have access to the "PARTY MEMBERS SIDE THING" which lists the current party members and their level so its next to useless, it doesn't even list their name. You currently lack the sufficient Upgrade that makes it more useful and shows Level and health but that will be not too long from now. So, What now?

[causticlyOptimitious]

Wait didn't you have a bag of jelly beans before you were pokefied?

> Search crater thoroughy for beans of the jelly persuasion.

[BenBen]

Shake Rolly until he wakes up. It's time to get going.

[Wessolf27]

>Obligatory PMD Theme Music Go!

On a more serious note:
Carmen: Lead the way, meet up with your Squirtle rival.
Rolly: Wake up already
Sparky: Might wanna get a briefing on everyone's skills and stats.

[Kíeros]

> Onward to adventure!

[Storm]

Onward, to becoming an asshole once again!

...wait what

[Shailsnic]

Carmen: Lead the way, whilst rolling Rolly
Spark: Follow, and also roll Rolly.

[Pokeball]

~> Get Rolly up and Proceed to Adventure!

You and Carmen turn to face Rolly, still passed out from impact. What a loser.

Spark: Man, he sure can sleep.
Carmen: I think we should get him up now.
Spark: How do we get him up? Don't we need a revive or something?
Carmen: Naw, Ever seen the movie Inception?
Spark: Yeah, what about it?
We just use a kick, he should be a full health by this point so if you zap him, we can get him up!
Spark: You do know i have no idea how to use attacks right?
It's not that hard, you already know what your attacks are right? So just concentrate on in and Boom! thundershock!
Spark: Ill take your word for it

You focus on zapping the sleeping blue ball and you hear lightning come down onto him, due to his higher special Defense, Spark only does 8 damage, enough to scare the crap out of the poor Rolly. I'd feel bad but he's been fainted the whole damn time. How useful is fainting? No very at the moment but soon maybe, Wait what?



OH HEY ARE THEY TALKING AS A GROUP? LETS SEE THAT INSTEAD OF FORESHADOWING.

Spark:Hey it worked!
Rolly: What did you do that for! That really hurt!
Carmen: You've been passed out for a good three hours or so, and me and Spark decided to wake you up.
Rolly: Sp-Spark?
Spark: Sup Poli, want a cracker? oh wait it seems you've eaten enough.
Carmen: That was uncalled for!
Rolly: MEEP! AN ELECTRIC TYPE
Carmen: Calm down Rolly, he's on our side. He's going to come with us on our adventure
Spark:Hey man, I'm pretty sure that's like... Racist... or Typist..
Rolly: W-we'll be fine though right? You said we would be fine! He doesn't need to come...
Spark:What if you run into another water type? Bam ill be there to save the day.
Carmen: He's right, you never know what might happen
Rolly: I-its a forest though, there wont be any Water-

???: Hello my love, i have returned.
Spark:Who's this douchebag?
Carmen: Just an asshole who follows me around and thinks I'm his. Ignore him, he's not worth it.
???: I think the word she means is "Rival", we've been going at it for years and I've become much stronger and won in more resent times, and now i just need to win her heart
Spark: That was the grossest line I've ever heard, please excuse me while i throw up a kitten
???: and who's this, delightful rodent?
Carmen: A friend of mine, and id appreciate it if you didn't run him over too.
Spark:and we just got him up too. What an inconsiderate asshole
Rolly: I-I think i broke something...
Carmen: You're fine Rolly, just walk or roll it off. Anyways, what do you want Asshat?
???: Just your love and affection. But also I'm going to be a guardian and conquer the great evil. You'll be so impressed that you'll definatly want some of this hot piece of-
Spark: Yo fruit cake, i heard there's some Hunk Rump being sold at the local shop. You should go pick some up for yourself
???: What?
Spark: Oh yeah, you're also a coward. You attacked Rolly from behind because you knew that none of your attacks would be that effective and you've only beaten Carmen because you learned your first water move, isn't that right?
???: Erm....well...
Spark: Exactly. So why don't you just curl up in your stupid shell and piss right the fuck off. Have a nice day.
???: But- UGH FINE. I will take my leave like a proper gentlemen. So long Carmen
Carmen: Go die in a hole.

The Asshat leaves and Carmen thanks you for standing up for her, but she says should could have done it better. How Sassy. You wait for Rolly to get off his lazy butt again so you can finally get this show on the road. as mentioned earlier you're heading too the BUREAU OF KNIGHTS to be GUARDIANS or something. You dont particularly care, but it gives you something to do and you get to do adventure which is something you didn't really do back home. Carmen tells you it's still a bit far off but time goes by quickly when your with your friends.

Another Update will be coming up later today or early tomorrow. Feel free to leave suggestions for what they should discuss and talk about on the way to the BUREAU OF KNIGHTS or something. Yeah it still exists and stuff also, if anyone wants to do music or somethin, feel free to let me know, id appreciate the help :3

[Shailsnic]

Ask Carmen for the guys name for future reference so we can torture him later (Either by name calling or tracking him down to torture him) and continue on your way.

[Wessolf27]

Asshat Squirtle: Be named Azul (Spanish pokemon is a go!)

Sparky: Ask about the head honchos of the Bureau, might want to at least know who's who in the area.
Rolly: Be less of a butt monkey
Carmen: Lead the group to the nearest town.

[causticlyOptimitious]

Rolly: Be less of a butt monkey

NONONONONONONONO! No! This cannot happen before the second boss fight. Preferably more like the 3rd or 4th. Remember, the longer the purgatory, the more satisfying the redemption.

Sparky> Enough talk, time to get a move on.
Carmen> Kindly inform Sparky that the Bereau is the other way.

==> Comically use Rolly as a transport ball, probably giving him an emotional scar while you're at it.

Seconding. Let's crush this tadpole's self esteem!

[Pokeball]

~> Carmen: Head to town
~> Rolly: Be less of a 'Butt Monkey'
~> Spark: Ask about Bureau and use Rolly for transportation

You hop on Rolly and proceed to use him as a makeshift method of transportation. His name is Rolly damn it, and you must make use of him in the most ironic way possible. Its not like he can do anything about it seeing as he'll only evolve at level 25 in which he'll be less of a butt monkey but until then he's a little bitch. He asks you to get off him because it hurts or he's dizzy or something but you and Carmen ignore his pleas probably scaring him and leaving him in a damaged emotional state. You ask Carmen if are going to head into town first before we proceed. She informs you that there would be no point seeing as you have no money and no method of carrying items. Also the next town is miles and miles away, the closest thing to a town or village is the Bureau it self. You ask about the current leaders of the Bureau and some info on it since you know next to nothing about it.


She explains that it's run by the three descendants of the original founder and his two Partners. No one knows their actual names as to not let anyone harm their family or loved ones, however they are known by their Communication Names, the same names used by the original three. GREEN MANTIS is the OFFENSIVE CAPTAIN, he makes sure that everyone is well armed and suited for combat if need be. The original Mantis was actually a Female Gardevoir who was amazing with Psychic attacks, she was also of said have been incredibly smart and invented the Gummi. A favorite Pokemon treat. The Gallade, however, is more up close and personal and is the best fighter in all the known continents. He isn't afraid to prove it either with having killed most who've tried to fight him with barely even moving at all. The DEFENSIVE MINISTER is PURPLE DOOMCANNON, for this Nidoking's huge size and muscles he is actually said to be quite passive and been able to calm even the most enraged of creatures. He keeps the bureau safe and keeps the guard informed on local events and who to watch out for. The Forefather was said to have been a mighty warrior who combined with Mantis could wipe out massive armies with barely and scratches on him. Finally the head of the Bureau, Lucario, known as AURA KNIGHT. The only known pokemon who does not have a color make up part of his Communication Name. His forerunner was the name sake for the Bureau but it's name was given to the bureau by the original's son, whom had fought beside him in battle. In fact he had died during the war and on his death bed let his son take over the rebellion. The symbol, however, was chosen by the original. He had said that he'd seen that sphere somewhere before and it felt like it would fit. The current Aura Knight is said to be a master hunter and tracker along with a selfless and valiant leader. He has a daughter whom he keeps close to him at all times and teaches her all about fighting and how to run the Bureau. The thing with the Knight descendants is no one knows where they come from. They never pick mates and they just have a son or a daughter. The Aura Knight looks over the people and deals with any conflict in the best way he sees fit, even if it requires force and or the loss of a life. The Bureau itself is located inside a dungeon at the lowest level, fitted on top of soap stone cliff. However, only those who posses the strength to get there without the help of a knight, can be knighted. However some families and elder pokemon have been taken in to be cared for by the knights. Inside is said to be a library on pokemon history, shops, a mess hall and barracks, and the Grand Gem. Grand Gems are the necessary component for Pokemon in this Universe to evolve, not just by pure leveling. Knights are given an emblem with a piece of this gem to evolve anywhere but other pokemon have to find different means to evolve, whether it be a shard or a rare concurrence, some Pokemon in dungeons have evolved for some strange reason. There is said to be one at least one on every continent but sometimes multiple have been found or pool with the shards of crushed crystals have also been able to evolve pokemon. The Largest of these gems, however is said to be located in the Bureau itself.

She asks you if there is anything else you would like to know about this land or its history, there's still a bit to go before you reach the Mystery Dungeon.
