Frequently Asked Questions
Can I have a Missingno?
Hahaha. No. Missingno is a legendary, sorry.
Do people eat Pokémon?
Yes. Of course, only Pokémon which are raised for food are eaten. Eating the ones you raise as pets or fighters is barbaric! Pokémon commonly raised for food include things such as: Doduo, Miltank and Tauros, Goldeen, or Magikarp. Just like with real world animals, eating certain species of Pokémon is frowned upon or outright taboo. Nobody would eat a Charizard, but most people would have no problem eating a Magikarp. Just use some common sense here and you should be fine.
Can I play as Ash Ketchum?
Our use of canonical characters is limited to gym leaders and a few other specific exceptions. In short, no. You can't play Ash.
What about talking Pokémon?
We're aware that in the TV show and comics, Meowth is capable of human speech. Meowth also put a lot of time and effort into this and had to give up learning new moves to learn to talk. Due to the potential abuse of this in game, we are not allowing Pokémon capable of human speech, though they can communicate with trainers in other ways (body language, certain psychic types through limited telepathy). They may be able to produce limited sounds that could resemble English words (the same way some dogs can bark in such a way that it sounds like they're saying "Mama") but otherwise no. No speaking Pokémon.
Can I play the son/daughter/relative of canonical character x?
Due to our use of canonical characters as NPCs or playable gym leaders, this question doesn't really have a blanket answer. If you want to play the relative of a canon character, ask a mod. This will be judged on a case by case basis.
Can I have a master ball?
Master balls are classified technology still in development by Silph Co. They are not available to trainers. Unless you work for Silph Co. R&D, you've never even heard of a master ball.
