[Fox8642]

Hey Kecleon! er um.... ShinyMarill!

It's me Lapras from SPP. I can't believe FRTC is over and now the Indigo Road has started. I love this story more than ever!

Fox

[Oakbark]

It's finally here!

Keep the good chapters comin'!

YEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYY!

[Jon UKX]

that was a great first chapter, I can't wait for the quiz
(I did cameo this fic in chapter 2 of Skin Deep and they meet the author of FRTC later in the fic)

[Shadow87]

jeeeej!! Finally the sequel, I'm so happy now. Being in the fic, cool, if your in can you battle cris or crystal? that would be so cool(even if you would lose)

[Powarun]

Yea Thank you Shiny Marril for the fics return. BTW, Chris has seen Latias hasn't he, so Articuno may be the second pokemon heard. Now have to take tranliquilizers so I wake up on mondays and thursdays and so I have no school in between.
How old is Chris this time, is he fifteen, or fourteen? Shaving is hard, and recently I found the point of shaving cream, it is to cover skin so you know were the hairs are to shave.

[Chris 2.1]

Arnold: Yea, its nice to be typing after...a week? lol. Hope you enjoy the rest of the fic!

Fox: Hey! Glad to see you made it. Check frtc out in the archive if you missed anything, and check back! If you love it so far, then wait till you see the rest of the chapters! Some new Pokemon, some new friends, some new gyms! It's all in here...including some new rockets...and a new death :O

Oakbark: lol. glad you're having a good time. Keep the good chapters coming? sorry, i'm only posting rubbish ones . jk! Have a good time reading!

Jon: It really sunk you into the action, didn't it? The quiz is exciting, and thankyou for the SD cameo! I can ingale my grandchildren that tale when i'm older...

Shadow: There IS a battle, and a lot of interesting development. I have it all planned out to be set later in the fic, it's original AND strange!

Powarun: He's 14, AKA: me ^^. Shaving's a bummer...use an electric razor as they don't cut ya! However, the top lip can be a trifle tricky with an electric razor...and Krystal's birthday (14th) is in the fic! :O

Thanks for the replies, guys! Check back on Thursday for chapter2!

[Oakbark]

The 'guest appearance' sounds cool, but how will you choose the person?
Grrrrrrrrr.
Must have patience 'til Thursday.............

[Ultra_Poke2000]

awsome chapter! so thats how theyre going to Kanto! i knew something like that with the cape was going to happen! im glad im not going to eat that soup!

“Professor Oak?” Chris asked. “I thought he was an advertising gimmick?”

“Hey! We could travel to Kanto and give it to Professor Oak!” Krystal said.
“Come on” Chris said. “This isn’t the anime, we can’t go on errands like that”

heheehe... advertising gimmick? can you extend the quiz into the weekend so i can have a chance? thanx!

[Chris 2.1]

Oakbark: How do we decide? You'll see...you'll see soon enough...The actual role the character has is set, i just need the character!

Ultra_Poke2000: You'll see more Wobbuffet suicide meals later on. The quiz isn't ON Thursday, it starts on Thursday, and continues for a long long time.

Thanks for all the replies. At the moment, i'm working on Chapter 12, 'Cape Fear'. The plot thickens a little more...as do the Pokemon's attitudes towards the new members of Chris' team...

[Jaffa]

Bravo! Yet again you've managed to surpass yourself!

What's this about being in the fic??? I WANNA BE IN THE FIC!

*Slaps self, breathes deeply*

Composure... And thats better...

Whats all that about, then?? *Being in the fic, not my sudden outburst!*

[Ghost]

Woozers!Really good so far...

Hmm... about being in a fic?I want to!*Drops an Anvil on J so he will move out of the way*

But ofcourse, I'm to dumb to be in a fic...I don't even have good pkmn...Except for my Torchic and Pochena in Pokemon Sapphire.That's just about it.

*J tries to stand up, but I drop a Anvil on his head again before he can get Revenge on me*

[Heavenly Sage HLSOE]

I haven't read finish From Rookie to Champion but FRTC: The Indigo Road looks really promising Chris. Love this ^__^ Nice fic...as usual

[Jukain]

Sorry for not responding sooner. Nice to see the sequel under way. I was wondering if you were gonna do an audience participation thing. That should be interesting.

[Jaffa]

*Casually blows up RTJBH, nurses bad head*

BTW, the thread closed before I could say this... So...

I'd have to say FRTC is one of the best fics I've seen, congrats on finishing it... And... WAHEY! DAMIEN'S DEAD!*Composes self*

Cape Fear??? Oh, I think I know where that might be set... Though I could be wrong...

*Kicks anvil, wails in pain*

[Chris 2.1]

whoo! replies!

J_MadNintendoFan: It's still rather confusing to organise, since the appearence is near to where i'm writing. I might change it slightly, causing it to be later...but i'm still unsure. Thursday has full details...

Raven: Don't worry, the character is portrayed very originally and well. Torchic and Poochyena? Well...you'll understand the rules soon, so keep your fingers crossed you can use your own Pokemon!

HLSOE: its in the archive. Thanks for checking it out....but i thought you left? Hmm...maybe you faked your own death...

Jukain: Interesting indeed, seeing how a lot of you have specific favourite Pokemon. That might help...maybe...*chuckle* Well...check on thursday for the full story and whatnot

J_mad2: Thanks. i appreciate it a lot. Cape Fear COULD be misleading, but its set on A CAPE....but not the cape like Krystal's one...lol

[Ultra_Poke2000]

[Istantler]

Wow, I can´t believe it!!!

The Indigo Road is here. I was waiting for it to come, and it´s finally here.

Hey SM, sorry for not replying earlier, but I had a problem with my computer screen. Maybe you thought you have lost a reader, but i´ll never leave this story behind.

*starts crying*

This was a great beggining, the only thing I didn´t like is the way Noctowl lives nowadays. It´s a pitty.

Anyway, I will say what I have been telling you since the beggining of FRTC...

Great work!!! Keep it up SM!!!

[Heavenly Sage HLSOE]

I did...but I do pop back occasionally to the fanfics forum to meet up with certain people and read old favorites...From Rookie to Champion was definitely one...so willFRTC: The Indigo Road be. ^__^ I can't satisfy my thirst for fics Well, gotta study, cya

[Chris 2.1]

Ultra_Poke: if he checks the fic out, i'll be sure to be nice to him.

Istantler; Nice to see you here. Thaks for the comments, and i hope you participate in the quiz! Noctowl has an action-packed POV in Chapter 11, with James Holmes and Rika being in as well!

HLSOE: another person who's appearence makes me smile. glad to see you'll follow the sequel through.

[Chris 2.1]

Ok, thanks everybody for their 'bio's. it all fits in nicely, as the character will be modelled as close to you as you can. Basically, i think all the Pokemon can work...sorry Jon, but not custom Pokes.

I'm seeing some interesting Pokemon (Like Runpapa!) and i can definitely see this going well.

as time is short, lets just start the quiz now! I'm busy thursday, but i can still post the chapter so i'll go for it.

Rules and stuff

This is a quiz based on Pokemon. ANY POKEMON, although i'll have to do frequent checks to see about the new ones. There may also be bonus points...

i ask a question about Pokemon, which may also include maths, and the first to answer gets a mark. by the time the chapter where one of you guys starts is up, we'll have a leaderboard with the winner right there.

Get it? Ok then, here goes...

[/b]
Question 1-
How many segments does a Steelix have?

Get going, and even though the quiz is running, new peopel may hand me their bios.
-

[Jon UKX]

Er...7?

[Arnold]

Steelix has 9 Parts to him.


^^ I dunno what you ment when you said post it, so i'm posting my answer ^^;;

[Jaffa]

Goodie!

Question 2-
-what is Ursaring's classification?
Bonus point

scoreboard
Arnold = 1

[Istantler]

Ursaring:

Type: Normal

Is that what you call "classification"? Or is it his kind?

I think Teddiursa´s caracteristic is something abou "gather things" or something like that.

[War Raichu]

Ursaring's Class: Hibernant
Teddiursa's characteristic: Gather Things: May find an item after battle.

*Hopes for points*

[Arnold]

I'm going for

Teddy - Littlebear

Ursa - Hibernant

[Ghost]

Teddyursa- Little bear

Ursaring-Hibernant

[Dragonfree]

Teddiursa's characteristic: Find stuff
Teddiursa's classification: Littlebear
Ursaring's classification: Hibernant
