A list of common questions and answers regarding the workings of the RP.
General
- What games are canon?
WAAPT follows the events of FRLG, Emerald, Platinum, and Heart Gold. Due to a lack of a third version the Gen V game followed by WAAPT is left purposely ambiguous, and Gen VI is still pending. The Pokèmon Ranger and Orre games are considered canon, as are the Mystery Dungeon games.
- What calender does the WAAPTverse use?
Gregorian for ease of use.
- What does WAAPT do for arcs if there are no new games out?
Sometimes original stuff, other times something based on another franchise.
- How does the timeline work?
- See here. The RP proper started in 2011 both in and out of universe.
Dream World
- How does a human access the Dream World?
Save for extenuating circumstances such as the Dreamstalk, a human must be transfigured as a Pokémon and woken up within the Dream World in order to access it in either form.
Catching Pokémon
- What Pokémon can I catch?
Whatever you want as long as they're non-legendary.
- But some characters have legendary Pokémon!
Grandfather Clause.
- Can I catch shinies?
Yes, apart from the glint they're no better or worse than a non-shiny mon, though some may cry foul if your character has an unusually large amount of shinies.
Pokéforms
- Can I change my Pokéform?
Unless there's an extenuating circumstance, they're supposed to be permanent.
- Does a Pokéform have to be static across universes?
No.
- What can you transform into?
Pretty much any non-legendary Pokémon is fair game, though we strongly encourage that they start as a base morph if they're evolution capable.
- But Vyvyan is a Rayquaza!
Special case due to experimentation, and it's a permanent Mode Lock.
Chatroom
- Why do people go "ping pong"?
It's a test to make sure they're online/the chat isn't lagging.
