Once a Pokémon
Forum-Index → Roleplay → Pokémon RP → Once a PokémonZylin stood beside the other volunteers in the room with a giant step in machine.
Dr. Autumn: "Welcome everybody, thank you all for volunteering to test out my new machine. As you all saw on the pamphlet-"
Dr. Autumn held up a pink folded up piece of paper.
Dr. Autumn: "-This machine will hopefully allow all of us communicate with pokémon. I'll need you all to sign a form, just in case anything uh...."
Dr. Autumn trailed off and then handed everybody a piece of paper.
Zylin: "Uh mom, don't I need to sign anything?"
Dr. Autumn: "Haha, no."
Zylin: "Alright..."

Dr. Autumn took everybody's signed forms.
Dr. Autumn: "Alright, whoever wants to go first, step up."
I'm going to have everybody turn into a Pokémon about an hour (in the rp) after everybody goes into the machine, so that nobody will want to change their mind about going in, since Dr. Autumn can't force them to test out the machine. Also the machine doesn't work when they try communicating with a pokémon.
Dr. Autumn opened the machine door for Bright to step inside of the large see-through glass tube.
Zylin: "I'll go next!"
Dr. Autumn nodded to her daughter to show that she had heard and turned her attention back to Bright.

Zylin walked over to the machine and entered, the same thing that had happened to Bright happened to Zylin. She left the machine with what looked like a black ink tattoo of a Sylveon on her upper right arm which also seemed to be slowly fading, though Zylin didn't notice the strange mark.
Dr. Autumn stood aside and waited for Aria to go next.
I think I'm going to have it so that once the ink tattoo completely fades, they turn into pokémon (sorta like a timer).

She said turning to Ike, John, and Josh.
Dr. Autumn: "Who would like to go first?"
Zylin: "Oh, just in case you were worried, it doesn't hurt, you don't feel a thing!"
At first everybody can communicate with all pokémon, but after you turn into a pokémon, you can choose if you want your characters to talk in English (sorta like meowth from team rocket can) or not, oh but everybody who turns into a pokémon can understand every pokémon and the language they knew before being turned into a pokémon. Also, just to make things interesting (and I know the concept of this idea sounds weird) but you can get caught in a pokéball like any other pokémon. (I may or may not make a pokémon hunter who tries to catch all of them... So yeah...)
Ike feels what he guessed to be the mind of an absol, because it was saying that something bad was going to happen. He also saw fear, and sadness. “Why are you sad?”
The absol replies “because it’s too late, you’re in danger, I felt it just seconds before I was trapped in here. Hurry, you have to stop using the machine.”
Ike:“Why?”
Absol:“don’t ask, just listen. If you don’t stop, it’ll be too late for you.”
Ike shakes his head. “I have to do this, for the sake of humans and Pokémon alike.”
Absol growls, and hisses. “You don’t wanto listen, you don’t have to. Don’t come beggin me for help when you realises why you should listen.”
Ike nodds, and realises he had spent enough time for some data. “So, is it too late to leave now and be safe?”
Absol:”yes, it was too late when you started using this machine.” Absol curls up and tries to fall asleep.
Ike leaves the machine, and goes back to the sitting room, and waits for josh and John.
John has a similar experience, except the blaziken He was talking to wasn’t warning him that there was danger, and that he couldn’t tell what Pokémon he was talking to.
Dr. Autumn: "Alright everybody, now that I got everybody on the list-"
Dr. Autumn stopped mid-sentence as she looked down at her volunteer sign up sheet.
Dr. Autumn: "Wait, looks like I've missed a couple of people. Zylin, can you go get Duchess and Duke from the waiting room and show them the way to the testing lab?"
Zylin nodded.
Zylin: "On it!"
Zylin raced out of the room and down the hall into the waiting room.
Zylin: "Is there a Duchess and Duke out here? We need you two in the testing room if you still would like to volunteer."
Dr. Autumn: "Welcome both of you, I need you both to sign these real quick before you try anything."
Dr. Autumn said handing Duke and Duchess each a form.
Zylin walked over to John
Zylin: "Don't worry, I've been a bit nervous about trying my mom's machines before too. In fact, this is actually the first time that I've ever tried one of her machines, well gone through with trying one of her machines. It's not as bad as it seems."
