Pokemon Sweouf: Prof Oaks Visit

[Mic_128]

Okay, after thinking about this after jokingly suggested it earlier I figured I'd give it a go. What am I giving a go? I'm going to try and do a text-based adventure game, similar to the ones at www.mspaintadventures.com (which if you haven't read, read em, it's awesome)

BE WARNED! I might use the odd image from google images, but I'm planning on keeping as much to my own paint skills, which I must say, aren't exactly awesome. That said, lets give this a try. I'll make a suggestion thread (link below) in which you guys issue commands. I have no idea of any story, it's all what you guys make up!

So lets get this show on the road.

Post Commands/Suggestions Here
Link added soon.

 

[Mic_128]

You're a normal 12 year old guy who has just finished school. Thankfully you're not from the world of Earth in your favorite book series. School until you're 17? You shudder at the thought. You put down your book and stand up.

However you've stood up a little too fast, and you're slightly lightheaded. In fact, you've forgotten your name!

 

[Mic_128]

Light-headed you may be, but you're not stupid! Try again.​

 

[Mic_128]

Yes! You remember your name now, it's James Smit! You could have sworn your last name was longer but I guess you ran out of letters. Shame.

You seem pleased. Probably because it means that you don't have that brain tumour, just like the character in your book. Whew!

You look around at your room. You can see your COMPUTER, to your right on the floor is your BOOK that you must have dropped. Scattered around the floor is some PAPERS and some CLOTHING, and an electronic HANDHELD DEVICE of some sort.

You wonder what to do first.


​

 

[Mic_128]

Get Potion From Computer.

You do not understand "Get potion from computer"

He Needs Hands

He has two already, and politely declines the offer for more.

Panic because there is no door, and jump out the window.

James begins to panic, fearing that he is trapped in his room with no exit. His mind starts to strain and prepares to leap out the window.

You then remember that the door's just to your left and calm down. Wow, you really get stupid sometimes! Maybe you should see a doctor.

I say he should put on some underwear, and maybe find another sock to wear too. He's going to be gone for a long time. After that, maybe...throw the unplugged computer at the window until the bars break, and then jump out himself?

You go to put on the underwear lying on the floor, but then remember that you're already dressed. You're even wearing your most favorite pair of shorts. It's comfy and easy to wear! You pick up the sock. you're already wearing shoes, so you decide to wear it on your hand.

You glance at your computer and are struck with the strange urge to throw it at the window. You don't know why, seems like a waste of a perfectly good window.

Oh, and a good computer, you guess.



Go into tall grass.

There doesn't appear to be any in the room.

Pick up the electronic handheld device and start playing blue version

You gently discard your sock and pick up your HANDHELD DEVICE. Ahh, your faithful Setendga GearBoy. You only have one game which came with it, a whimsical game called PERFECT POLITICIAN. It's apparently a spin off from the OVERWHELMING OPPOSITION series. You love the idea that one man could lead a whole country, but find it far fetched. You're glad that you have 3 running your country.

Okay, seriously. Examine the papers, and check what is on the computer screen.

You glance at your computer again and see nothing on the screen. It's off. You pick up one of the pieces of paper. It appears to be completely blank. You decide to put it in your pocket, might come in handy.

Well, he'd have to plug in the computer first...

There's nothing in the room to plug it into. You never liked this house...

Look at the book- James Smit doesn't have hands to pick it up.

Yes he does!

You examines the book. It's one of your favorites. It's about a boy as he moves through the grueling hassles of secondary schooling. There's different series but you prefer this one the best. You find it quite whimsical that someone could make a career off of english.

 

[Mic_128]

Take the book. You never know when you might have to squish a big bug.

Take computer with you out of the room, if you can. Find a wall outlet, and plug it in.

You stick the book in your inventory. Who knows, you might get bored later. You're not sure if it's a good idea to move the computer to another room seeing as right outside your door is steps down, but you try anyway. As soon as you start the monitor falls sideways. Maybe if your PARENTS were around they could help. It's strange that they're never around, you often get the feeling that they are of no real importance in your life.

Well, James Smit has to leave the room of course. Probably to get screamed at by his mom to clean his room. That place is a pig sty.

You walk downstairs. Unsurprising your MOTHER isn't around and neither is your FATHER. In the room is the FOOD CONSUMPTION TABLE, the TELEVISED VISION DEVICE and a BOOK CASE. There is also a window, the entryway to the kitchen and a door that takes you outside.

tell him to visit Prof. Oak's lab.

I don't understand this command!

Yeah, and use that paper you brought along to make a paper airplane!

All aboard the PAPER AIRIAL TRANSPORT! You're quite pleased at how this turned out.

 

[Mic_128]

Check the book case

You walk over to the bookcase. There's quite a lot of books here. you were never that interested before in reading them and you're not particularly thrilled to read them now. You go to pick one up and find that they aren't real books, just cardboard boxes designed to look like books, glued into the shelf! That would be one of your MOTHER's ideas to make the house seem more homey. You turn your attention to the two pictures on display, one is of your PARENTS when they were younger. The other is a picture you yourself drew when you were 4 of your two pet Goldeen. A shame they escaped and ran away. Thinking back on it now, that seems a bit suspicious. then again, maybe they just went to visit your old Eevee that moved away to that farm.

Wait a minute...

Turn the televised vision device on.

It's not plugged in, and there's no outlet either! Man, you forgot that this place barely has enough power to run the **** FOOD REFRIDGER. Your PARENTS brought it when you moved because the room seemed empty without it. You again reflect on your dislike of this house.

Examine food consumption table.

The craftsmanship is impeccable, and the wood sturdy. you ponder for a moment, trying to remember what type of wood it's made from. whatever it is, it's a great table!

The chairs though were made horribly and have warped.

Go into the kitchen. Check for some food and then eat it at the food consumption table.

You see the FOOD REFRIDGER, the FIRE COOKER and the SINK under the WINDOW. Inside the FOD FRIDGER is a bottle of MOO MOO MILK, a RAGE CANDYBAR and a plate full of LAVA COOKIES. You were always disappointed that they never contained any real lava.

You help yourself to a COOKIE and return to the living room.​

 

[Mic_128]

Enough pussyfooting around, lets go outside.
Okay.


You walk out the front door and shut it behind you. You look around at the town of Sweouf. You don't quite understand how four houses in the middle of nowhere constitutes a town, but hey, why not. three other families live in this town and only one other kid. You suddenly realize you have a chimney despite not having a fireplace. This town makes no sense. Speaking of not making any sense, what's with the giant barrel/cylander/barrier things surrounding the town? You asked your PARENTS about their xistance and they quickly changed the subject. It just seems as if whoever put them there decided to limit the directions you could go.

 

[Mic_128]

Ask the townspeople about the barriers.

There doesn't seem to be any around.


Read the sign next to the house on the lower left corner, then go inside the house.

You wander over and read the sign.

"Town Sweouf: Pointlessly adding town signs in tiny communities since 1996"

You attempt to go inside the house next to the sign. The door's locked. you knock and wait. Nothing.



Break the neighbor's window XD

You've had enough. You get the feeling something's up and you want answers. If it means smashing down a door or breaking a window you're gonna do it! You take a swing at the window.

Oh god that hurt. You think something broke, but it wasn't the window.

Go inside the house on the lower right that looks like it has a crazy roof.

While you've over this way, maybe their neighbor knows what's up. Doors locked. Nobody's home. This is getting repetative.

Don't forget to check the mailboxen!
You head back home with a sore fist and not much else. What a pointless day. Maybe you'll just go back to bed. Might as well check the main before you- AW!

Your mailbox is damaged! Almost snapped in half! You made that mailbox yourself last year at school. You'll find whoever did this and get even.

If only your hand didn't hurt.

You notice that there's actually mail as well. There are 3 items inside. A package to you from your dear old NANA, an envelope with no return address (you have suspicions as to who it's from) and some boring advertising flier. You gather them up.

 

[Mic_128]

Read the message without a return address.


As you suspected it's a letter from your neighbour. This pretty much confirms in your eyes that he broke the letterbox. Jerk.

Open the package from Nana. If the item isn't useful, use THAT to break the window, or your computer.

You open the box. Hey, there's a letter from NANA in it. You decide to read that first.

Yesssssss! You always wanted to be a trainer but your parents were always saying "Oh no it's too dangerous, it's too expensive, it's cruel to stuff pokemon into balls" Ha! NANA doesn't think so! You pause you a second. Maybe it was meant for your father, afterall you are both named James. Nahhhhh.

You obtain 1X POKEBALL

Read the ad. You never know what nice sales the store will have!

You'd much rather just throw it away but you're a TRAINER now! They might have some pokemon.....things for sale.

Oooooh, NOW you remember why your parents aren't home, and presumably everyone else. It would also explain why they were banging on your door this morning. Well dammit.

Veheiches town is north through some grass that noonne's bothered to cut that is home to wild pokemon. You don't have any pokemon so theres no way you can get to the town now. Unless....

You start moving towards the town exit but then think it over. Anything in town that you want to do before you go?

 

[Mic_128]

Check to see if your neighbor is home.

You bang on the door. No one's home. Everyone in town must have gone to the event.

Steal whatever is in your neighbor's mailbox.

Your neighbor has no mail.

Give the neighbor a taste of his own medicine by demolishing his mailbox. Sweet revenge!

You give the mailbox a good shove. You expect it to be hard to damage like yours was, but it just snaps like a twig. You remember that your neighbour also made his mailbox and he sucked at making things. You let out a good "Muhahaha" at your handiwork.

Burn the neighbor's house down.

Hey, woah woah! You may have just damaged their mailbox and given an evil laugh, but you're not THAT evil!

You do however decide to urinate on the doorstep.

I'd recommend you get ye flask.

The only flask in the house belongs to your FATHER and he most likely took it with him.

All boys leave home sometime; it said so on TV!

Onwards! You enter Beta Woods
