Team Nova Discussion/Sign-ups: Third Year!

I shall have an Alolan Ninetails then and my character will be extremely overprotective of her. And he'll be prone to bouts of violence against anyone wearing a poor Ninetails's coat.

Alolan Ninetales dredges up lost memories of a sister he barely knew. It affects him on a psychic level he didn't know he had until after having it unlocked by Latias~

An option I had in mind was for them to meet Riley in whatever the facility with the eggs was called, so that we can work on establishing what kind of Alolan pokemon and regional variants may still be a thing thanks to the rebellion's breeding programs. Mostly provoked by us needing to establish the status of the Alolan Vulpix line.

So. I'd be happy to have help wrapping up the siblings' plotline. I'll PM you all of what you need to know, Neo.

I got off my lazy ass and at least somewhat updated the cast list on the OP of Episode 13.


The deceased list is pretty long...

Bunny. I need your expertise. Psychic Supersoldier. Enhanced strength, enhanced speed, powerful psychic abilities, combat trained, trained by Nova. Fairly important to Nova's plans, would have been given the good toys.

What level of technology and power am I looking at? Battlesuit, like Rena/Bill's from STARS with all the systems? Starburst blasters? Hand-to-hand specialization? Psychic powers- bring down a house? Lift people into the air? Throw them against the wall? Force Choke?

Darth Micah ftw.

People who refuse to listen to the Man, man. Being a rebel's a state of mind. Tinfoil-hat-types, basically. Except they were completely right. And maybe the old government wasn't perfect, but at least they never (X)ed my (Y), man.

10 years is a long time to be on a boat. They've probably come and gone from the mainland a few times and hopped around a few islands, just always managing to get what they need without getting caught up in anything major.

Because it's relevant for reasons, I think we should try to break down the PC power levels. We haven't done that. Let's figure out the low and the high end of PC powers.

High end is obviously Neal. Let's see... N style pokemone magnet at first, right? Some tech stuff. Was Team Xerneas leader, is he technically now? Then ability to merge and share powers with Darkrai? And then did he get cyborg stuff or was that solely for Rayquaza? But after that he also got Xerneas hax for super strength, became a giant, and constant regeneration to pair with his immortality.

This is the highest. But it's also not as bad as it sounds because it's so disjointed and nothing works together. And Neal is like a joke character now how doesn't do anything anyways.

The true threats on the high end are Meridia with the psychic powers (but only depending on whether or not I raise the limits on it for her. They were low previously, and never cemented afterwards, but the intent was to keep the limit on it low), and on the not really a PC side maybe Hugh or Emma with the suits? Molly is likely to fall right about here too.

I don't know if there's a PC that fits well in the middle, but for non-PC characters we do have Riley as an aura user.

Low end really has to be most clearly defined by Joshua. Some reasonable tech is his only real flair. The rest is all about his team and how well they work together. Skill, not power. Honestly, the most effective one on this list, and at the low end. Funny.

Please help me flesh out this.

There used to be an abundance of Bill-like power armour but that was crippled recently, so Nova tech has been vastly stripped down. No suits, but there are still toys. There's already another psychic Nova Executive named Marissa (Eusine's nemesis) but she is more focused on using mind altering drugs and mind control. Most Nova tech is Pokemon-inspired technology that allows humans to use aspects of a Pokemon's abilities, or extrapolated from something in the games. For example, the psychic amplifier crown Marissa uses is based on the Steelheads the villains used in Pokemon Ranger 3 to control pokemon. StarBurst in general is based on Shadow Pokemon and Ranger Stylers.
