A Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver Story

PLEASE DO NOT POST IN THIS THREAD.
Please direct all comments, questions and concerns to this thread here.

FOREWORD: I'm actually quite pleased with this story. I'm not quite sure when I started it or how long my writing binge lasted, but if my memory serves me correctly then it must have been a few months following the release of HeartGold and SoulSilver in Spring of 2010, when I was finishing 8th grade. I think I had done all I could on my SoulSilver what with the Pal Park and the various legendary Pokémon, and I wanted to do something special with my HeartGold playthrough, so I started writing a realistic version of the game's story, and how the characters might actually behave in real life (of course, if real life was like the Pokémon anime...that's kind of how I always write Pokémon stories, have you noticed?). I didn't include chapters of any sort because for some reason whenever I do that, the action in my stories always gets finicky. I wish I would have continued this story in some way, because I enjoy what I have of it, and I want to know where it might have gone. Of course, it couldn't have followed my actual game, because the second Pokémon I got in my HeartGold version was the special lvl. 5 Mew they distributed around that time, and while that would have definitely made for an interesting plot device, I feel like it would be insincere to the actual game's story.

Perhaps we'll never know what might have happened to Gold and Spyro. I'll always have them with me, though! I still haven't beaten my HeartGold...

FOREWORD: Oh boy...I can't quite say that this was a dark time in my writing, but this story has special significance in my life. It is by far one of the biggest story-writing-related projects I've ever taken on, and that's coming from the guy who has an entire thread of stories he hasn't finished. I began this story around 6th grade-ish (I know this because I tried to finish the story for a class project...that didn't happen...kinda), and there are a couple reasons as to why it isn't finished, namely the fact that in April of 2008, I had my backpack stolen with my notebook in it that contained all of my plans for this story and several other things...I miss that backpack very much. Anyways, there was a lot going for this story, and there was just ONE HUUUUUGE PROBLEM: At the time of writing this, I'd never played Majora's Mask before. Sure, I had seen my friend play it pretty much all the way through, and so I kinda understood the whole plot, etc. yada yada yada...only I didn't. At all. This is fairly evident if you read through what I have of the story...I won't point out specifics, but it is very clear that I'm really not sure of my lefts from my rights in terms of Majora's Mask's plot.

As messed up as it is, I was so damned proud of this piece of shit. In fact, on the document I'm pasting it from are dozens of little images I took from ZeldaWiki.org and pieced together on a Word doc to sort of illustrate what I was describing, and I spent HOURS trying to get the images to behave. Damn. I hope you guys love/hate this thing as much as I do. Just remember, I WAS IN 6TH GRADE. PLEASE.

Frogger's Pointless Adventures!

Please direct all comments, questions and concerns to this thread here.

FOREWORD: I got my Nintendo DS Lite back in August of 2006, and the first game I got for it was Frogger: Helmet Chaos, an entry of the reboot for the frogger series, and having played Frogger's Adventures: Temple of the Frog almost RELIGIOUSLY on my GBA, Frogger was pretty hip to me back then. Excuse me. Frogger STILL IS hip. I began writing this story in 5th grade, in my ELP (Extended Learning Program) class, where we were to do a project where we would write a story and then record our voice while reading it. Unfortunately, I don't have the audio clip for you guys to listen to it (I'm not sure as though we even got to keep it...idk), however this story inspired me to sort of start an entire series based around the Frogger universe I had come to love and adore as a kid.

...This story is here because that idea didn't really pan out. Enjoy!

Post some crazy things or silly misconceptions you had or did as a kid!!

For example,

When I was a kid, I thought Austria was an abbreviation of Australia. I clearly remember myself cheering "Go Austria!! Go Austria!!" When I really meant Australia.

Prologue:
   
A long time ago, there was a man.  This man's name was Luigi.  He was tall, and always wore green, with a matching hat with an "L" on it- for Luigi, not loser.

Luigi had a brother, too.  His name was Mario.  Mario was short and plump.  He wore red, and also had a matching hat, except with an "M."
   
Mario was a hero.  Ever since numerous encounters with a crazy psycho ape, he's been saving princesses left and right.  Mario was everything Luigi ever hoped of being.
   
...Until one day.
   
Luigi got a letter in the mail stating he had won a contest.  This got him extremely excited, since he had never entered a contest in the first place!  The prize, you ask? A huge mansion, hidden on a small hill in the center of Boo Woods.
   
So Luigi asked Mario to meet him there.  Mario took off first.  Then Luigi set out on his quest to retrieve his mansion.  Using a small map, he made it through the woods, (but not before getting lost, first) to find a huge mansion.  Lights off, pitch black, nothing.
   
Inside the mansion, Luigi met Professor E. Gadd, a scientist who studied ghosts.  E. Gadd brought him to his lab, having to explain that the mansion Luigi won was haunted.  He had seen Mario go inside, but he had been kidnapped by the leader of the boos, King Boo.
   
Luigi, scared out of his wits, accepted the quest to save his brother.  Before Luigi headed out, he received the Poltergust 3000 from Professor E. Gadd.  The Poltergust 3000, a vacuum-like machine, along with his flashlight, allowed Luigi to capture ghosts.  Then he went inside.

Luigi journeyed inside the mansion, vacuuming ghost after ghost, until he came to the secret altar, where King Boo was staring at a painting- of Mario!  Mario wasn't just kidnapped, he was turned into a painting!  Finally, after Luigi's toughest battle with a ghost yet, he was able to capture King Boo and all of the other boos.

Using E. Gadd's Portrificationizer, Luigi turned all the ghosts he captured into paintings, and returned Mario from his painting state.  The money he found went towards buying a new mansion after the old one disappeared.  Now, Luigi has his own huge mansion in the middle of Boo Woods. Yay.

Prologue:
The Beginning of Peace

I can remember.  I can remember all the way back to the night that the Hero of time slayed Ganondorf.  I was two years old at the time, but I wasn't too young to understand that something bad had happened.

My name is Caleb.  I was born a few years after Ganondorf obtained the Triforce and destroyed Hyrule.  I lived in hiding in a boarded up house in the destroyed Hyrule Castle Town.  I lived there until we moved to the nearby village of Kakariko three years later.

On that night of terror, I had found a secret escape hole in our house that led outside where the living dead, also known as redeads, infested the streets.  As a baby would be, I was curious.  I had never been outside before.  I plopped down on the ground and began to stare at things.  It was all so amazing. 

I heard galloping sounds in the distance.  A huge brown horse ran through the large stone gate.  Its rider was a young man clothed in a green tunic, who wielded a pure silver sword.  I could sense he was strong.  The horse neighed as the boy slashed all the redeads in his path.  As a baby, this was horrifying to see, so I burst out crying.

The green clothed boy ran to quiet me, in fear the redeads would spot me.  He scooped me up and began roughly rocking me.  "Shhh!" He hushed.  "It will be over soon.  You won't have to be afraid any longer."
   
The true words of a hero.

From that day on, I knew it was my destiny to become a hero.  I quietly crawled back into the hole, unnoticed.
   
The next morning, for the first time in seven years, my family heard the chirping of birds; Ganondorf had been defeated.  We crawled through the small hole into the fresh air of a new Hyrule, as if the old one simply flew away overnight.
   
The town was refilled with people, and although the town was in pieces, everyone was rejoicing.  The Princess, Zelda, came down a long path that led towards Ganon's castle.  My mother, who was holding me, set me on the stone floor.
   
As Zelda entered the Castle Town, people exclaimed, "It's Zelda!"  Everyone formed a circle-like shape around her in the town square.
   
People "oohed," and "ahhed" and "who's that?"
   
"Quiet!" Zelda exclaimed.  She seemed happy, yet sad.  " I have an announcement to make."  As she spoke, I had crawled over to her side.  I tugged at her dress, and when she saw me, she picked me up and held me against her.  My mother searched frantically for me.  "Ganondorf has been defeated, and imprisoned in the Sacred Realm.  Praise the Gods, for may he never return!"  Everyone cheered.  My mother noticed me in the princess' arms and was relieved.  " The Hero of Time, however, has gone home.  Rejoice and be happy, Hyrule! Peace has come once again!
   
People cheered and began celebrating.  The princess walked over to my mother and handed me off.  " Your son will be great," she said. " I can feel it."
   
My mother bowed and said, " Thank you, your Majesty."
   
I wondered what had happened to the Hero of Time.  Where is he?  Did he go back to the past? Or did he go into the future?

I feel as if this forum needs a thread to discuss things about Paper Mario, in my opinion one of the most fun RPG's I've ever played.

Although I haven't started on Sticker Star yet (nor have I played SPM), I will say that the 1st Paper Mario is my favorite, whether it be the music, the awesome interpretation of an "overworld" concept, or just the gameplay in general, the 1st in the series was revolutionary to me.

Vote in teh poll.

Paper Mario FTW!

ok, I'm not a musical genius, but I do have an ear for odd things.

Does anything about the Professor Layton's Theme Midi seem odd to anyone? I just feel like there's a beat missed like EVERYWHERE or something. This is the song from the original game.

I've looked at the sheet, and from what I can hear, there might be a pick-up perhaps, or idk, but other than that, I just don't think the Midi matches up with the sheet, and it's making a-me go nuts.

If I'm completely wrong, I would understand, I just felt as though I should ask or point it out.

Kelsey and Eric's Adventures in Alyos!
PLEASE DO NOT POST IN THIS THREAD. ANY COMMENTS MAY BE POSTED IN THE DISCUSSION THREAD

Prologue (and bacon)
It was a late night.  I twirled in my swivel chair at the desk, waiting for a new message on my PC from my friend Eric, otherwise known as Shadowkirby.
   
*Dling!* A message appeared on the bright screen, reading, "Dude, are you ready for this?"
   
Excitedly, I typed back, "Of course! I've already tweeted about it, AND posted it on NSM! Everyone's excited to hear how it goes!"

Eric: "Aw, I wanted to be the one to post it on NSM... "

Me: "Haha "

Eric: "Hey, it's getting pretty late, so we should get to bed. We've got a big day ahead of us."

"A big day indeed," I replied. "Night, buddy. See you at the airport."
   
This trip had been planned for months.  Ever since we'd returned from the disaster that was Terrari, Eric and I had been talking non-STOP about how bad we both wanted to earn our own badges of the Alyos region. (After all, would age 16 be a little late to start your own Pokémon journey?)! Exploring the region, meeting new friends, rivals, maybe even new foes- who could resist?! And so it was decided: as soon as we could, we'd fly our butts down to Grisleville, and begin our "perilous" journey from there.

Now for some sleep...zzzzzzzzzzz...
   
I woke up in the morning to the most beautiful thing in the world: the smell of bacon.  It was my special day, and my own mother was making me bacon for breakfast.  How sweet.  Dashing some clothes on, loading my backpack, I rushed downstairs to get fill, when I found Eric sitting at our dining table, EATING MY BACON.
   
"Get that out of your mouth!" I cried.  Surprised, Eric dropped his bacon looking wide-eyed, and I quickly snatched it up, devouring the rest.  "That oughta teach you," I sneered, sarchastically.
   
My mother gaped at my sudden action. "I made more, you know!" Eric and I quickly filled our plates with bacon.
   
"Anyways, what are you doing here? I thought we were rendezvousing at the airport?" I asked Eric. He couldn't answer because his mouth was full (of bacon).
   
"Eric's parents couldn't make the trip to the airport because something had come up over in Edding.  So they dropped him off here before you woke up!" My mother explained.  "Now hurry up, you two! We don't want to be late for your flight down to Grisleville- Professor Wages is just dying to meet you!"
   
Scarfing down my bacon, I contemplated in my head which of my six Pokémon (Chatot, Tangrowth, Buizel, Fraxure, Pikachu, Magmar) did I want to bring with me on my trip?  Instantly, the obvious answer popped into my head: surfing Pikachu!  So I grabbed Pikachu's pokéball from my roster, leaving the rest of my powerhouse team to rest in the comforts of my PC. The feeling of regret could not be deeper.
   
Heading down the stairs again, I saw Eric at the bottom, so I asked him, "What Pokémon are you bringing along?"
   
"Haha, that's a surprise!" he jeered, sinisterly.
   
The nearest airport to Polo Town was in Boreal City, meaning that we would have to drive all of Route 4 to get there.  Stepping out of the car at the airport, I could see a mob of people just waiting to wish us goodbye.  How kind of them, really :')  In the mob, I could identify Thomas, his younger sister Katie, as well as a few school friends that have since-our-return began to like us.  Everyone was cheering and shouting, banners were soaring, and it was an amazing final farewell.
   
"Hey you two," Thomas, the Polo Town Gym Leader (and our only friend, for a while) pulled us aside. "You two are incredible. Don't ever forget that.  What happened in the past at Terrari doesn't matter, because it's over and done with.  You made it back to us, and now that we have you back, we're looking after you.  Kick ass, and take no prisoners.  Oh, and definitely send some money home to your mothers. It definitely helps, trust me."
   
Eventually, the time came when we had to say goodbye to our friends, soon to see them again at long last.  Traveling on foot, the journey would be a rough one.  Eric and I both knew it. Looking back, our friends waved, as we turned to ace the gate to our plane.
   
Cell phone? Check. Map of Alyos? Check. Journal? Check. Balls? Yes. Pokéballs? Got those, too. Let's do this.
   
In the same step, the same moment, the same fragment of time, Eric and I entered the plane and took our seats.  Buckling our seatbelts, we knew that this would be the greatest adventure of our lives...

...and we were ready.

Hey, so I, uh, saw the other sporty thread that was on here (it ended pretty badly), and since it's locked, I figured I'd make a new one!!

*no rude or diminishing comments may be directed towards ANYONE, no matter their age- and please keep it on topic!*

I am a swimmer! (since 4 or 5, maybe younger) but because I've done it for so long, I'm just tired of the same Old thing, so I've slow been becoming distanced from the sport (yet faster...?)
I've also joined track as of last year, because I'm surprisingly good at running as well (must be the swimming )

What's your sport?! List it below!

Hello, everyone! I am going to start a spin-off series from K-NiGhT's amazing "The Great NSM Pokémon Adventure!" it will be strictly (unless otherwise noted) about Eric and I traveling through my newly created region of Alyos (basically, Alaska) and our misadventures after K-NiGhT's adventure. I won't be starting this for a while, so this is just a quick heads-up about it's impending creation.

We will be traveling through the region, following the path of the gyms, and fighting crime! I'll also be taking any suggestions you may have for the story...but leave the naming and placing of things to me. Unless I ask...there are some cities I just can't think of names for.

Any questions? Ask away! I'm uber excited about this.

   It was a quiet evening in the small town of Ellivflow. Crickets chirped, the moon shone brightly, and fog rolled throughout the streets. Lights of various buildings flickered on and off.
   Suddenly, a man in a black top hat dashed around a street corner. A young boy dressed in blue tagged shortly behind him.
   "Professor, what are you saying?!" the boy cried. His name was Luke Triton, and he quickly ran beside the man.
   The man, dressed in a black suit and a top hat with a red stripe on the brim, looked down at Luke. He was Professor Hershel Layton, a popular archaeologist at Gressenheller University. "I believe I've finally cracked the mystery behind this village, Luke. And frankly, I don't believe the people in that restaurant are safe!" The man ran faster down the street towards a highly decorated dinner theatre.
   Luke followed. "But professor, what does that mean?" The two burst through the restaurant doors. The room was filled with all kinds of lights, glimmering throughout the whole building, which was nearly empty, except for twelve people whom Luke and the Professor had been recently investigating.
   The grotesque faces of the villagers quickly turned into surprise as the two dashed into the restaurant. Shortly behind them was a tall man with long, flat black hair, dark eyes, a short, sad mustache, and a permanent, grimacing frown.
   "Oi, Layton." he called. "I sure hope you're righ' about this one. I left the Yard as soon as I got yer message." He looked at Flora, a young girl just behind him, who was wearing an orange dress.
   "Hi Professor! Hi Luke!" she called. Luke smiled at her.
   Then the Professor turned to the people in the restaurant, and said to them, "You should all know why I am here. Some of you know why you are here. But all of you..." the professor paused (Clearly for dramatic effect). "...have some explaining to do."

To my dear friend, NSM,

What we witnessed in that small village of Ellivflow may have been one of the most intricate and curious cases the professor and I have ever been through. Although I never forget any of our adventures together, I'm sure that the professor and I will often look back on this case as one of our greatest.

It all began when the professor received a mysterious letter in the mail...

"Professor Layton, help! We have identified eleven rogue residents in our village and we know that three of them are confirmed criminals! However...we can't quite seem to tell which ones are the outlaws!
