So you've been accepted and are ready to start playing! But how will you catch your partners on your Pokemon journey?
Each route has a number of Pokemon available. You can even catch Pokemon in some towns. Each town or route has its own thread dedicated to catching Pokemon. Here's what you do to catch one:
1. Open a reply to the route post on the account you would like to catch a Pokemon on, and tell us what Pokemon you're looking for. If you're not looking for a specific one, let us know!
2. Which Pokemon will you be battling with? Let us know--some types will be more effective against certain Pokemon! You may use up to two Pokemon in wild encounters.
3. If your Pokemon knows a move like Thunder Wave or Hypnosis, note whether you want to use it. This will make your attempt more likely to succeed!
4. If your character has acquired a special Pokeball, note whether you want to use it!
5. Wait for a mod or admin to let you know if your attempt was successful.
That's it! You start each week with 10 Pokeballs and can attempt to catch Pokemon twice per day. You do not need to keep track of these in your inventory week to week. Unused Pokeballs do not carry over between weeks.
You can use the template below to get started on your post:
Here's an example of a good PokeCatch post:

Happy battling!!
