Alola?

[Venominon]

Hey there, hope everyone's doin well. Ill just get right to the point. I just read through all the new Alola info and everything else, and Ive got a question/concern or two. Hopefully someone is willing to help me out.

So, I read through everything on the new Alola quests in New Bark Town and Cherrygrove City, and the level caps for both of em have me kinda worried. As you may or may not know, Venom's Pokémon are beyond those level caps. Not too far beyond, but still beyond. So here's the question, is that gonna be a problem for me if I have Venom take on those quests? Because, I definitely want a piece of these new Alola Pokémon, and Id really like for Venom to have a Z-Ring, but his Pokémon are above the recommended levels you mods have set for these quests.

Honestly, I hate asking for special treatment, but that's kinda what Im doin here. Also, Venom is a Poison type trainer. Exclusively. So, as such, Im not gonna have him catch some random, lower leveled wild non-Poison type Pokémon, just to fulfill the mods' level requirements for certain quests. I know that's stubborn and kinda lazy of me, but the rules I set for my OC's are absolute. No exceptions. That's always been a personal rule of mine. Plus, there aren't really anymore Poison type Pokémon between New Bark Town and Violet City that Id be interested in adding to Venom's team. If there were, Venom would've caught them already. Plus, Im one of those people who always likes to catch only six Pokémon for his journey in any Pokémon game, and stick to only them until the end of the game. Its just how I like to do things.

Anyway, Venom's Pokémon aren't too over leveled. So I was kinda hoping the mods would be willing to cut me a little slack. Please. In all honesty, I was already planning on having Venom take on the Happiness Quest in Cherrygrove City after he wins his Zephyr Badge, and then The Sweet Escape quest in Violet City after that. Venom needs the sweet hearts, move tutor, Ecruteak City. Ive done a lot of planning ahead for Venom's journey on this site. Im an organized person, but that's not the point right now.

So these Alola quests are very good, but they've kinda complicated my plan a bit. Anyway, that's my whole case right now. Hopefully, you mods are willing to help me out. If not, I understand. Venom is the one Id like to win all eight gym badges and complete your site with though, so Id rather not start from scratch with another OC, even if I get to keep his and Venom's journey's going at the same time.

Heyo! ^^

You can still undertake the quests within our current rule set, but as per our 'High Level Pkmn' bit in the Encounters Guide anything over the noted Maximum levels of the Trial will have a good chance of disobeying.

You do have that Salandit, which once hatches would be able to go through the trials without any trouble. So that's 1/3 of the party right there. Sadly we can't just let vastly higher level pokémon tear through the Trial without some handicap since the entire thing is balanced around the general recommended level.

I know this puts you at a bit of a pinch, but with your pkmn LV 20+ even with a significant disobedience chance they'd probably be able to trounce any of the encounters in 1 shot eventually before being taken down themselves. A little grueling, but still doable. So having a couple of those on your 3 party team along with the Salandit shouldn't be too much trouble. I'll also just note that the Trials aren't purely battle focused. There may be an encounter before the 'boss/totem' or not.


Venom too OP! So strong.

Seriously? That's it? I was kind of afraid you guys just wouldn't let Venom take on the trials, but if disobedience is it, then no problem. It wouldn't be the first time Ive had to play the game with disobedient Pokémon. Yeah, its annoying, but as long as I can complete the trials then I guess its fine.

And yeah, I definitely didn't forget about Salandit, but that egg is nowhere close to hatching. And as I said, Im planning on having Venom take on these trials immediately after he gets his Zephyr Badge. I guess I could have him take on the Happiness Quest or The Sweet Escape first, but I don't want Venom's three current Pokémon getting too much stronger. The next Pokémon I was gonna have Venom catch is a Nidoran male, and they aren't available until he reaches Azalea Town. So that doesn't give Venom much to work with.

I know it sounds like Im killing myself here, but what can I say? I have a system, and Im sticking to it. Im a little OCD, admittedly. Still, Im fine. Anyway, thanks Lamont. I appreciate you taking the time to explain all of this to me. Ill manage somehow. Im definitely not quitting again, like I did with Dark Prodigy.

Also, lol! Not yet he's not. Save that for when he gets at least 7 badges.
