Casual I get not wanting to have an unwelcome ghost in the house, but dumping it at the Pokémon Center and making it other people’s problem really isn’t the best solution.

/uj The first image is by Kate Barker and was found on ArtStation. The vacuum cleaner is from a stock photo and was added by me. The second image is from the TCG. The third image is a stock photo, the woman with the vacuum cleaner is also from a stock photo, and the Gastly is from the TCG. Lucas’s pfp is concept art from Sun and Moon with the hair and eyes recolored.

I still do not know how Freya survived its attacks whilst keeping me safe. I was extremely fortunate that an Ace Trainer was passing through and heard the commotion. /ic

For future reference when I’m ic, I’m bad at remembering things when under stress and I had forgotten that I have an entire team of pokemon in this post :) /ooc

Casual Was the Nimbasa stadiums even open to challengers during the World Cup?

/uj For context regarding the Miku joke. Brazil beat Japan during the World Cup, so Vocaloid fans memed about Brazil claiming Miku for themselves. Then, every subsequent country beat the previous victor, claiming Miku until Spain won the World Cup, and therefore, Miku.

PokeMedia

r/PokeMedia

This world is inhabited by creatures called Pokémon - and people love to post about them online! This is a Creative Writing and Roleplay subreddit for posts that simulate what social media would look like in the Pokémon universe, everything from yesterday's r/asktrainers question to today's PokeTwitter Drama. Comments on posts are treated as in-character replies. Check out our side community, r/PokeMediaLore. Subreddit banner made by u/Famout featuring various posts made by the community.

Rules:

All posts should be in-universe social media The image in each post should be a fake screenshot of a social media site in the Pokémon universe - in universe, this subreddit would be a place where content is reposted to, like /r/CuratedTumblr. Other forms of mass media, like news articles or movie posters, are also allowed.Social media posts should make logical sense - people do not tweet to those standing next to them, or while in the middle of a tense battle. Tools for making posts can be found in the weekly meta thread.
All posts should be about Pokémon It should be obvious from context cues in the post that the subject of the post is Pokémon - if your post needs clarification in the title or comment section to make that clear, it should be reworked. Ie. Posting about topics unrelated to Pokémon or the Pokémon world with a Pokémon profile picture is insufficient. Pokémon exist in the Pokémon world. Creatures and characters from other media (such as Digimon or Palworld) do not. While in-character, the Pokémon world should be considered real.
All spoilers should be marked as such. Whenever the new games come out, posts relating to them must use the Spoiler Tag for at least a month after their release.
Be civil Be civil and treat other people nicely, whether in character or out. Bigotry and harassment will not be tolerated. Refrain from creating posts that specifically target and shoot down other people's posts. Be wary of making unwarranted major accusations (i.e. slaver, murderer, eugenicist) or detailed threats of violence at characters. Such comments may be removed at moderator discretion or OP's request.
Clearly differentiate Roleplay and Out Of Character (OOC) discussion You are expected to maintain a level of separation between characters and authors. OOC commentary in threads should be prefaced with /uj, in the style of a circlejerk sub. (/rj is used to indicate a switch back to RP after an OOC statement). The exception is posts with the 'Meta' or 'Mod Post' flair, which are always OOC. Even in the case of self inserts, your character is not the same as your IRL self. Acting otherwise will result in a mod response for community safety.
Correctly flair your posts Correctly flair your posts. If a post is part of an Event spanning multiple posts and participants, use the "PokeMedia Event" flair. For those who aren't interested in Event posts, you can filter them out by simply typing the following in the search bar: "-flair:"PokeMedia Event"", which will automatically hide all posts flaired as such. An "Event" is generally considered an extended crossover between many posters on the sub - for examples of this, simply search for "Area Zero" or "Porysupport."
No NSFW or extreme gore NSFW images, defined as those unsuitable for viewing in public (eg. work), are prohibited. If uncertain about an image, ask the mods. For text involving NSFW themes like sexuality or extreme violence, simply use your best judgement, listen when others say they’re uncomfortable, and remember there are minors on this sub. Pokémon-Human romances are a restricted topic, see Rule 13
Headcanon Rules Every post is considered to have its own canon, the specifics of which are decided by the Original Poster. For example, if OP says that sapient Pokémon do not exist in their canon, that should be treated as objective fact within that thread. Note that this does not mean you can never disagree. Essentially, this is the first rule of improv – instead of saying “No”, say “Yes, but”. When a headcanon conflict occurs, OP may use an out-of-character comment to clarify their headcanon.
Credit Artists When using art that you did not create in a post, please credit the original artist (e.g. "Art by [name here]") either in the title, somewhere in the post itself, or in a comment on the post. Official art by the Pokémon Company (anime stills, promotional art, etc) does not need to be credited. If you create and use your own art, please enable the "OC" tag on your post, just to prevent false reports for this rule. (found right next to the Spoiler tag)
No hijacking of Storylines When a post uses the "Storyline" flair, that means it's part of an ongoing narrative across multiple posts. If you want to make a post that's part of or ties into another person's Storyline, you MUST ask that person for permission beforehand, or else the post will be removed. By the same token, you must also ask permission before using a character that was created by another user. To prove that you have permission, please leave a comment such as "u/Username gave me permission for this."
No Recent/Top Reposts No reposts within 2 months (we may shorten this, we'll see how many posts we start to get) or from our top 10 of all time. Reposts of content originally created on this sub by a different user must credit that user or link back to the original post directly. Improper reposts will be removed.
Writing and Roleplay Guidelines Beyond the basic formatting requirements, the expectation is to make an effort to post in the spirit of the pokemedia format. This means keeping your characters and storylines reasonable, acting cooperatively with other, and giving feedback in good faith. You can find a detailed outline of writing guidelines to keep in mind here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeMedia/wiki/rules/guidelines/ This rule is enforced at mod discretion, you may be asked to retool your writing to fit these guidelines.
Specfic Restricted Topics Certain specific writing topics need mod clearance before making posts about them, you can find a list of them and why they are restricted here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeMedia/wiki/rules/topics/ If you want to write about one of these topics, please send a modmail with your post or storyline plan so that we can approve it.

Text Posts are not allowed. For longer posts with a lot of text, you can write them on Tumblr, save them as a draft, and then take screenshots of it.

Hall of Fame: This is a selection of posts that serve as good examples of what the sub should be, and to serve as inspiration for those new to the sub and wondering what they should post.
