Funnily enough, I had an idea to have the PC's parents be kind of the end boss to the ceremony.
also funnily enough, raping my dad is my fetish

Yeah I'm trying to keep it PG-13. Might have some horrifying implications built into the setting like so many childhood cartoons seem to have

Also I thought of having a religion in the setting that worships a figure they believe gave people their monsters to protect them, they'd be at odds with scientists trying to discover the true nature of monsters.
As far as the setting's technology level I was thinking maybe modern/near future and have the pilgrimages filmed by drones for people's entertainment. Good idea y/n?

>Each Gym badge you earn in a country allows you to gain access to another.
>Passports only allow international travel to those with more powerful pokemon.
>If you collect all the Gym Badges you get to fight the Elite Four
>On. The. Moon.
>Conquering them and Earth's Champion earns you the right to travel among the colonies of the star system with your pokemon.
>All the planets are home to all kinds of variants of pokemon specifically adapted to life on different worlds.
>And for the longest time, only Earth was home to man.
>Imagine how far you'll go once you collect the 8 Space Badges from across the solar system.

Space pokemans, wait are space pokemans just alien races you're enslaving and making them fight for your amusement?

Pokemon sentinel Quest had a really good variation on the pokemon world and rules

Bumping with best mon

>>47468605
I mean like Digletts adapted for Mars and Tentacools adapted to Europa instead of intelligent aliens.

Ooooh. Might give that a look, even if quests don't interest me that much

What did it do to the premise?

One last bump

Give them metallic armor for a new form of meta

Make them have more color variations than the shiny's

Normally when people play tabletop games they try to think of things OTHER than high fantasy just to get some variety.
I think in this particular instance it would be cool if it were set in medieval times.

Because every other 'mon' show or game ever has always been in modern times.
If it were set in an older period I think that would be cool.
Would probably get a bit of a Ni no Kuni vibe.

How is monsters and other childish things as a system? I think it'd be a good introduction to pen and papers because the premise is silly enough that I think my wargaming group could throw back some beers and play.

It's solid and very simple, if you're familiar with ORE systems you'll know what to expect. You roll a dice pool of d10s and count matching dice. So you roll 3 5s your result is 3X5. The first number is the "width" of the roll which determines how fast you get somerhinf done. The second number is the "height" which determines the overall quality of your actions, or in combat, exactly where you hit an enemy
My personal favourite thing about MaOCT is that calling someone names is just as damaging as a punch. Also you can punch someone so hard their parents stop loving them

That could work quite well actually, considering that the pilgrimage is kind of an antiquated idea. Its also good to not have to worry about modern inventions getting in the way of plot. "I lost my friends? Better call them on my cell phone"
