[Linked] The Sinder Pokemon Guild!

Hi! I am fairly new here, but I had an idea, and I’ve been stuck on it for a while now, so decided to build it out and see how it felt.

The premise is, that it seems there’s quite a few Pokémon characters appearing around Sinder, and I know there’s already a Pokémon centre, and a battlefield in the forest if you head along the charred path. But I wanted to expand it a bit more, and have a full Guild there too!

For those unaware, Guilds are a term used in the spin off ‘Mystery Dungeon’ Pokémon Games, and are comprised of Rescue and Explorer teams! My idea would be to run it as if it was that, I’d have a Character that served as Guildmaster, and other Pokémon can come and sign up as, or join a team. I’d then have a place in the guild where I could post jobs, and the one requesting it. To take up the job, a member of the team would either reach out to the person in need, or to me, where I’d do that myself.

As for the jobs themselves, they could really be anything. I feel like it would be nice for people to acquire certain things via some sort of RP. Need a rare stone found somewhere far away? Request a job, and a team can reach out to you to explain they found it, and even meet up to deliver it.
Lost an item during an RP? A team can ‘retrieve’ it for you.
Need an escort through a dangerous city or area? Hire a team for support!
There’s plenty I feel could be done with a small, rp based system like this, and thought it’d be fun to see how it plays out.
I would also be happy in making a variety of jobs myself that i would post up, if a team just wants an excuse to go off on an rp, which I think would be pretty fun!

I’ve also pondered the idea of non-Pokémon characters joining a team, which I don’t see why not, as long as they have an idea of what they are getting into.
There’s also the subject of the lewd variety of jobs too, and I don’t see a downside to that either.

I’ve built the Guild, and I think I’ve got all the necessary rooms for it sorted, but I’m not sure what the next steps are. Or how to let people come check it out themselves.
[Edit]
I believe I need to leave the Room ID here, so this should lead to the first room that you’d arrive in when you enter.

I like this, would go nice on the Charred Path. I wonder if a tag could be agreed on for those looking for pokémon centric play. I am interested in meeting other trainers.

There was an effort to make bulletin boards with the Assassins/Thieves guild. It feels awkward to message owners with RP ads to post, it feels tacky to post RP ads on the forums. I wonder if there is a nice off site solution for people to post ads on. Preferably one that deletes ads after a week or so.

I wonder if there is a nice off site solution for people to post ads on.

For this I was thinking maybe something like Google Forms, I’ve got something set up that explains that if no one can take a request in person, then there would be a form you could fill out and leave.
Having this would mean I’d get all the requests off site, and no one would need to worry about having their email or personal info attached, as I can just make it so I don’t receive it when they reply, and instead ask them to leave the characters name in the form itself.
I could also then share this with others, so that they would also receive the requests too!

The google forms things does work! It might be a pain to maintain and not get many posts as is a little niche interest. I’m for it, know the guilds didn’t get much posts. I was thinking about it but… maybe not brave enough to post an ad there to be a victim.

Heya! I took a look through the place. n_n I love Pokemon characters and I like the Guild idea and build, too! I’d be happy to have it near the Pokemon Center and Battle Arena in the Forest. I’d just ask that you come up with area rules and description, and do a pass on the whole build for spelling and grammar as there are scattered errors.

Mail me in-game or let me know here if you’re interested.

Heya! Great work with the review changes I suggested! I love the idea of the guild, so I’m happy to announce that it is now linked via the Charred Path in the Forest. I encourage everyone to check it out, whether or not you’re involved with Pokemon!
