Chapter 1 is up. I like to put chapters into sections, and sometimes mini trilogies. But these sections have no set amount of chapters, so I'll just label them as parts. Each part has a common theme, or something to build towards. I have an idea for now, so it's going to be called the Ohsu Thrashers.

Maybe Forum Games is more appropriate for it...
To be honest, it really isn't a game. But since it's here, I might as well make it more community involved. This is going to restrict my writing a lot, but I think I'll try it out. My first time doing this, so I'll think of some ways to involve people more. Mini polls, etc. Remember though, this story revolves around the community. Just post like you usually do, and be yourself. I tend to pull random stuff out of what's happening and sneak it into the story.
There a lot of hidden references, which is the fun part for me. Muziek is Dutch for music, so it's safe to assume this region is in Europe. Because of this, I mentioned a passport in Chapter 1. That's why I would need one. Ohsu is self explanatory. Another reference was the clock on the boat. If you guys remember the Kanto region, you'll remember how sleeping on the cruise ship would make the ship arrive at its destination in the game. I poked fun at this by going to sleep and waking up two minutes later at the region. 4chan Foods was an obvious reference, and the name of the city (Vocarock City) gives a hint that the region has a lot of musical foundation. Furret is my favorite pokemon, just so you know. The point is if you spot something that you wonder was put there intentionally, ask. It most likely was, the point of these stories is to put the community in it.

I want to be a Pokemon Ranger~
They own soooo bad. They could destroy a pokemon if they wanted to. They can break boulders and just tear up shiz.
Done, but don't expect to jump into the story quickly. I'm trying to introduce people quickly, but I'm used to introducing 1-2 people at a time. But yea, good stuff.

Requesting E-Hooker and Cuddlebun to be put back in.
I'll be offended if you don't.
They seem to be getting more offended than you. I don't need any other drama here, so I took them out. If they really are bothered, they don't need to be in it. I'm not here to start some forum drama.
Edit: E-Hooker is fine, I think it was DeathxShinigami that had a problem. Cuddlebun was taken out too, and won't be put in by request. E-Hooker is in though, can't wait to introduce her.

Oh, neato ~
What really gives me some minor cringes is how sometimes the dialogue gives some sort of inconsistency with its punctuation, or lack thereof in this case. I guess that's the same bit with the other fan fiction, but regardless!
Whenever I'm included in there, Xero, feel free to call me Kirby, SRK, or Starrod to make things easier on you. 
Perfect, it's hard using usernames with a lowercase letter too. I think I'll be capitalizing names like that only if they're at the beginning of the sentence, like numot. Every other time it will be lowercase to keep it consistent with the forum. If you want a nickname or prefer me to call you something else, let me know. Genders would be nice to know as well, because I don't know many people. I'll assume a male gender for anyone I don't really know in that sense.
As for the grammar, I type these in notepad. That being said, it's hard for me to proofread there. But when I post the story I read it over and over. I read the prologue 3 times already, and edited it 10+ times to fix minor mistakes. I just edited it an hour ago because I saw that Chapter 1 inside the spoiler box wasn't bold. If you see any mistakes, let me know. I'll fix it, I'm a bit of a grammar and spelling nazi, so I don't take offense at all.
Wow...I think that's it. Gotta go to work soon, but enjoy Chapter 1. I wrote it just now because I was bored
