I share your views on the subject. People are free to have their. . . predilections. But they are to have it away from my table! I remember having to have an argument with somebody about the Book of Erotic Fantasy back when I DM'd D&D. Some people just have different expectations on what is acceptable, apparently. So I guess my version of this is. X) My players are not to speculate to what else might fit in the Humanshape group. Y) The following pokemon are banned against Lorelei's Cloyster: Onix, Steelix, Gyrados, Nidoking. . . . |

1. As a GM, I am not allowed to unleash the devil-eyed, drill-tailed, winged land snake. PC's may decide to go on dunsparce genocide if I do. |

I... what exactly triggered murderous Dunsparce hate in your group? Also, I have MORE THINGS to add to this! As a GM: 1. I must consult with the player before turning his Abra into a serial panty thief. 2. I am not responsible for anything Gents does ever. 3. Even if it is a free shiny in the second session, giving the socially impaired character a Tangela made of spaghetti is considered a faux pas. 4. I am not allowed to cause players to get into awkward homoerotic situations through the power of hallucinations. 4a. I am not allowed to combine Shaolin Showdown, Yu-Gi-Oh and Rayquayza through the power of hallucinations. 5. Miror B. is not always the answer. 5a. Just kidding, he totally is. 5b. Even in a hallucination. 6. I am limited to one acid trip sequence per three sessions. 7. Maid RPG is not the default answer when we need a one shot. As a player: 1. I am not the Shota King of Nerds. 1a. Still the best nerd, though. 2. I will limit myself to two lines of text when expositing to the exposition fai- I mean sponsoring NPC. 3. If I am basing myself off of a fictional character, I must at least change the name. 3a. Even if THE BOULDER would totally be the best trainer ever. 4. Fists are not always the solution. 4a. Before my Timburr gets Foresight, at least. 5. I am not allowed to show up the Ninja with my seven foot tall wrestler's superior Acrobatics. 6. SnK is not a one-stop battle music shop. 6a. DJ Ozma is acceptable. 7. Piggyback rides are no always the answer. 8. When the GM throws a group of Pokemon of the type I want for my Type Ace build at us, for the very first time, he expects me to try to catch one, not to go "WHOO SOMETHING I CAN ACTUALLY HIT" and murder 1/3 of them before the first round is over. 9. I am not allowed to comment on any other character's gender or age, or lack thereof. 9a. Even if there is no way the 19 year old hacker is a day over 14 from her image. 9b. And the Rune Master keeps changing pronouns. 10. I cannot eat the Rune Master if we are trapped in an elevator, even if s/he is "delicious dark meat". 11. Picking up a Wild Pokemon and cramming it into a Pokeball directly only works once. 12. I cannot intimidate the door. 12a. Even if it's not actually a door. More pending - I have a feeling this list will grow rapidly... |

It was about 5 sessions in (PTA), and they were out training, and my encounter generator brought them up a few levels higher than any of their pokemon, so I sent three after them (only 2 PC's). Serene grace+Really good rolls+ancientpower makes for some really buffed dunsparce. It really was just lucky rolls (seriously, it was consistently 18-20), but it triggered hate in my PC's. They ended up taking two of them out by catching them (Bad capture rolls made it take a long time) and the last one was a team effort of using wrap, paralyzing it, then headbutting while praying for a flinch. |

Yeah, that seems about the right circumstances to make a group despise a certain Pokemon. That said, stepping back and looking at you rolling consistent 18+'s while your players make terrible Capture Rolls, it's a hilarious situation all around if you ask me. |

As a player, I must solemnly swear to abide by this list of things I may not do. 1. I am not allowed to stab people with my Weedle. 1a. Not even if they are an enemy grunt that just stabbed me with a knife. 2. I may not cut off the tail of the Slowpoke I befriended to eat/sell it. 2a. No matter what the token criminal member of the party says. 3. I am not allowed to hold up the party while we move through a scenic area with a ton of perception checks. 3a. Even though there WERE a ton of Parasect in those bushes. 4. I will not hold the party up even further to obtain religious guidance. 4a. Especially when another party member already did that. 5. I won't gloat about how I bought all the equipment that would come in handy when I only use it once. 6. I may not have my character and their Pokemon break the fourth wall to reinforce my point. 7. I will not constantly remind the other members of the party why my Weedle's nickname is funny. 7a. This includes both in and out of character. 8. I may not have my character loot the slain bodies we find when they are supposed to be the moral one. 9. I won't refuse to kill the giant genetic abomination we are facing just because the pyscho teenage mystic says so. 10. No matter how many times the teenage mystic calls my character a paedophile, I will not resort to Weedle stabbing. 11. I may not point out the symbolic importance of a railway blowing up with a train still on it while the others are tending to the wounded. 12. I can not stop my Weedle's evolution straight up to Beedrill while unconscious, just because I can't stab things with it any more. 13. I may not engage in an hour long discussion with the team's Snagger in the space of 3 seconds. 13a. Especially not so I can die saving the party. 14. I may not recall the villain's dialogue word for word when I was being dragged and unconscious at the time. 15. If my character is primarily Charisma based, I may not attempt to save the female Martial Artist who is already beating the enemy pokemon. .....I never get to have ANY fun. |
