→ GENERAL MOD NOTES
It's somehow November!! Congrats on surviving this far, guys, we hope you enjoyed what was supposed to be a break month (': Anyways, please read this post carefully and also leave any questions/concerns/suggestions/etc in the comments so we can make this game fun and accessible for everybody.
⬥ As a reminder, our game's player cap is now 30 and our character cap per player is 3.
⬥ Our plot progression page has been updated for September and October! The main post briefly outlines the main plot, while the comments below details the investigations explored each month. Pending investigations do not necessarily have to be revisited, but may be worth keeping in mind and tying into future investigations!
⬥ The FAQ and bonus activity page has been updated regarding the level cap for traded Pokemon, which is +15 levels a month compared to the usual +10 levels for other Pokemon. This is due to traded Pokemon growing faster, although they are more likely to disobey as their level exceeds the number of badges/ribbons a trainer has. Pokemon gifted from one character to another due to drops also count as being "traded," as they have a different original trainer.
⬥ The calendar for November is as follows:

→ SETTING CHANGES
The following characters have been dropped from the game with the following statuses:
⬥ Toran has been completely restored following the tsunami and sandstorms to the west of Mango will have died down enough to allow for travel to Melona. All three towns (Toran, Mango, Melona) will be accessible for November.
⬥ With the radio tower antenna being stolen, the radio waves causing the ghost, dark, and psychic Pokemon to rampage in Mango have ceased. Electronic communication continues to not be a thing... maybe someday this will get fixed and it will be a thing. Someday you guys will get a network, but that day is not today (':

→ NOVEMBER 3 - WELCOME TO MELONA
Aka Gale finally gets to go home!! But it'll take a while to travel to Melona across the sandy desert. While the sandstorm isn't harsh enough to completely prevent travel, it still kicks up every now and again, and travelling on your own is ill advised! Guides are available to take groups to Melona, but for anybody attempting to make the trip without one... good luck... Please let us know in an investigation if this is what you decide to do with your life.
Some notable locations in Melona include:
Some notable locations in Melona include:
- ⬥ Pokemon Gym: The second gym is a psychic type gym, but is currently closed due to the gym leader being unavailable. The gym leader will have to be sought out and brought back to the gym, but it is also highly recommended to find him for potential plot information.
⬥ Pokemon Contest: Melona also includes a contest hall, awarding ribbons and other prizes to those who participate! Pokemon may win a normal rank ribbon in any category if this is their first contest, or they can win the next rank ribbon in the same category if it is their second contest.
⬥ Boba Shop: What's a town without a boba shop? Make sure to stop by and get your card stamped!
⬥ Museum: the museum here features ancient Pokemon remains trapped in fossils and amber, collected in the deserts surrounding the town. Fossils can be found during investigations, and characters can potentially revive one of these fossil Pokemon for their own!
⬥ Ancient ruins: scattered around the desert are ruins that remain largely uninvestigated. Which means! you guys should investigate them!! They may be wildly dangerous and potentially lethal, but also consider: treasure.
⬥ Erupting volcano: Uh. So, that volcano from September? Yeah, it's still erupting—- not as actively as before, but the slow ooze of extremely hot magma and the thick ash that falls from the sky prevents further travel to the west, as the heat and lack of oxygen makes it too dangerous. When will it stop? What happened to the town? Haha. You'll see next month.
