[Ryder]

fixed it Eth

[Ethereal]

Maona Cove is accepted.
You receive 100 pokedollars and sunflora

[Maid Melody]

sweet! a sunflora! >> now who to give it to...>>

[Ethereal]

You might want to re-read your description for mistakes, Ryder. A cave to explode? o.o That is scary. But as was previously mentioned, no more caves.

[Ryder]

Fixed, and are tunnels fine?

[Ethereal]

No tunnels, sorry. Also before I accept it I'd just like for there to be something more...interesting about the forest. Something that sets it apart from the rest of the forest as a whole.

[Ryder]

Got rid of the tunnels, and added more to the forest.

[Jay]

Ethe, are you going to use either of my two other ideas? If so :U feel free to change 'em and whatever lol.

[Ethereal]

Jay I'm considering it, but right now I just don't feel like I want them to be added just yet.

Ryder: The haunted forest is accepted (with a small name adjustment)
You receive 700 pokedollars and a lotad

[Jay]

Ah understandable ^_^ ~ Just didn't know heh.

[Ryder]

awesome! -wonders who to give the Lotad to-

[Ashvale]* Logging Camp (Eastern Woods)
This old logging camp is still in use, but only barely. There are several unused, run-down buildings from its peak of operation, as well as hundreds of tree stumps in the surrounding area. Also, a river runs through the middle, aiding the logging-work. Some Pokemon have made their homes in both of these, as well as making a general nuisance of themselves to the few remaining workers there.

---

Pokemon: Grassland/field (it basically is with the deforestation) as well as water's edge sort Pokemon.

*...Yeah, so I basically stole that name from WoW. I cut out two letters from theirs, but same difference. I suck at thinking of area names; I may think of something better later, but...well, yeah, there's my submission.

Southern Wastes

ANVILLAGE / ANVILLA
^{(*SHOT!HARD!* x'D I name-fail; mostly filler; only the second is intended as even a little serious.)}

A still-thriving city just north of the Orren border. While far from a tourist attraction, it has long-since been famous for its high-quality metallurgy of every sort, which is the primary source of income for this industrial town. When Nolan began suffocating the rest of the economy, Anvilla seceded from his rule, relying on its trade with and proximity to the Orre to continue working as its own entity. Only recently have relations been mended with Era, though the town remains particularly rough to outsiders due to its long period of near-lawlessness.

[/blockquote]

Pokemon: Lots of fire-types, a few rock/steel/poison/fighting, and a couple of misc.


RED MESA

Ancient Eran legends say this was once a great singular mountain overlooking the land, and the nesting place of dragons. Some say that when knights began to rise up to slay them, the great dragon queen split the mountain apart herself and carried her brood far away; others that wizards combined their powers to either destroy the mountaintop or teleport it off. ...Of course, ancient Erans didn't really understand what a "mesa" was, and in truth that's all this is, though there are a few Dragon-types around at least. A ridable flier or advanced rock-climbing skills are highly recommended when trying to explore this ancient landmark.

Pokemon: Lots of Flying-types, various rock/ground/dragon, a couple bugs, and a couple misc.


Central Capital

INDUSTRIAL PARK

Polluted and run-down, this part of the capital is packed tight with factories and corporate bases, many of which are no longer in use. By that, more places than not do still maintain some activity, though to say some might be questionable would be an understatement. Like the nearby slums, many gangs have set up shop here, using abandoned buildings as bases of operation and so-on. As to the more legitimate activity, business is in a slow process of recovery, both freer to function without Nolan's poor judgement and having difficulty with no government support at all.

Pokemon: Lots of poison-types, a few steel/dark/normal, and a couple of misc.


PARTY CENTRAL

The one part of Era that has never been hurt for business: the capital's entertainment district! When the economy thrives, people come to celebrate their success; when the economy withers, people come to drown their sorrows. Filled with theatres, casinos, live shows, night clubs, and much more, this section of the city never sleeps, especially not at night. Traveling acts often pass through as well, making for even more lively variety... as well as an opportunity for those who know how to use it!

Pokemon: A variety of normal/psychic/dark/electric/fighting, and maybe a couple of misc.


Western Waters

WHARFETE / WHARFENFETE / WHARFENFAIR (Bah..)

A commercial and port city along the southwestern coastline. The city itself is largely one enormous fish market, with a few more 'general' businesses and residences lining the outer edges. The boats at the docks are not only used for fishing, however, but also serve to ferry passengers back and forth to various small islands out in the waters.

Pokemon: Water water everywhere, bah; mostly fish. Also a fair number of fighting types (descended from dock workers), maybe a few birds. ...xD And cats! Drawn by teh fishehz of course. x'3

***NOTE: Jay's earlier idea of some islands off the coast should be used with this, else that line taken out of the desc.


SAVAGE SAVANNAH

A fairly harsh expanse of terrain for the region, running along its border with the South. It is not so hot or unforgiving as the desert, but does prove the driest area in the West. There are a number of small rivers and scattered watering holes throughout even still, however. Naturally, as one gets further north, the grasses become more meadow-like, while further south they become thinner until it fades into the next region.

Pokemon: All those things that should be found in a savannah- Ponyta, Electrike, Girafarig, Shinx, and so-on and so-on.


VALOR PLAIN

The heart of the inland west, this vast grassland expands between the northern border, the savannah, and the various coastal structures the region is famous for. Many narrow rivers trace through the gentle scape, making for a serene setting most of the year, though winters still come harsh, especially on the more northern end of the area. Overall, it is a nice place for meditation as well as picnics and dates.

Pokemon: A mixture of water, grass, and psychic types mostly, along with a few leftovers of the savannah nature and a few misc.

---

Random note: Since the prize Pokemon is determined by "how good it is" but seems to be fairly random as to which actual one it is within the same general quality range, can I make a few requests? :3 IF you use any of these, I'd rather like an E-Shellos, Cacnea, or Wingull (or their evolutions of course), as well as anything noted for its Atk, SpAtk, and/or Spd. ^^ Not asking for any specifics or all of those named, necessarily, just stating a few that would be cool. :3

[★ Ryuujin !]

D: My north needs to be beautified. TIEM TO FIX THIS!
Ok, FIRST OFF, Why is there like.... NO sign of major civilization in the north? x'D People live in cold areas too, of COURSE there's gonna be cities yo!

FOR THE NORTH!

FIRST OFF -

Sonata City
As its whimsical name suggests, this is quite the musical and friendly city, despite its chilly location. Notes can be heard floating along in the air coming from all around. Their origins? Friendly pubs, dance joints and plain old gatherings of friends. Nobody is a stranger in this city, so come and make yourself comfortable in an atmosphere so inviting and warm, it nearly melts the snow.

---
Pokemon: Yes
Types: Ice, Water, Dark some Fire and other city dwelling pokes. (Can be variable, I don't really care what goes in the list ^^

NEXT -

Wayward Forest
Wayward Forest lives up to it's name, as its large and wild. Many miles of its expanse are still unexplored and uncharted, waiting for an adventurous mind to wander about. There are also many secrets lying deep within the land, as a mystical aura radiates from the earthy soil below the snow. If you listen carefully, you could swear the trees are whispering to you, begging for their voices to be heard.

---
Pokemon: Yes
Types: A mix of Dragon, Dark, Ice, Psychic, Ghost and steel.

FOR THE WEST

Nirvana Delta
Nirvana Delta is naturally full of the sights and sounds of nature, being home to several species of plants and pokemon. These two things make this location an ideal destination for both tourists and trainers alike. Above the mouth of the Nirvana River, a large suspension bridge is placed, allowing passage for land based pokemon and humans across the other side of the river.

---
Pokemon: Yes
Types: a mix of Water, Grass, Bug, Poison and Flying.

[Jay]

Zip-line Forest
Location: Eastern Woods

A very dense forest where the easiest and fastest way to get through is by zip-line in which you ride down on lines that have been tied through out the canopy of said forest. The Zip-lines are free to any traveler; just be careful not to fall off~

Pokemon: Flying, Grass, bug, Steel, Electric

[Ethereal]

Flora: Ashvale has been accepted.
You receive 320 pokedollars and an ursaring

SG: Anvilla, red mesa, and savannah are accepted. Maybe you should come up with a better name for the wharf place? Also, these are ALL random. I use a sprite generator.
You receive 600 pokedollars, a wheezing, a snorlax, and a turtwig.

Ryuu: Sonata city and Wayward Forest are accepted
You receive 200 pokedollars, an octillery, and a spinda

[Admiral Striker General]

>> ALL names were pure filler because I fail at them. '^^; Please call it ANYTHING YOU WANT, but I spent literally two hours to come up with that much (clarification edit: as in that name, not just all the content 'xD), and I really don't believe my inability to name cities should cause the entire concept to be completely discounted... (Though personally I thought Wharfenfair sounded pretty badass when you say it out loud... *SHOTHARD* x'3) If you need me to be the one to give something, eh.... 'x3; I guess my next suggestion would be "Mercaera", in reference to Mercamadrid, world's second-largest fish market. Literally that's just a pretty lame "Era Market", but "murr-CARE-uh" sounds kind of cool so... x3

And... so that means that a $2000 territory has exactly the same odds of producing a Magikarp as a Tyranitar? ...Am I the only one a little befuddled? 'x3;

[Ethereal]

Ok, then I'll keep it as Wharfenfair and give you a sudowudo.

This keeps it fair and it's more fun to sort of play the pokemon lottery.

[Jay]

Hot Springs (Feel free to rename this >>)
These hot waters provide some warmth in the lower areas of the Northern Reaches. Many come to relax and enjoy the natural scenery and hot water. There is a bath house at the edge of one of the major springs which people can stay at while they enjoy their time here.

Pokemon: fire, water, ice, grass, dark

[Admiral Striker General]

I should be getting money for Wharfenfair and a Pokemon and money for the Party Central I saw had been added too right? o3o


... x''D Also your lottery HATES me apparently. " I like things with offenses and speed!" "...Defense. DEFENSE. Defense. Defense." x'D LOLWUT? C'mon, that's messed up, random forces of the universe. x''3
