please read carefully

[attr="class","ipad"]

[attr="class","ihead"]INSTRUCTIONS

[break][break]

refer to the shadow pokemon thread for more information. fill out the template below to make a request. you do not need to post in moderator request. a staff member will process requests when available.[break][break]

the rules for the team rocket lab are as follows:[break][break]

for 200 pokedollars you may attempt to convert your pokemon into a shadow pokemon. keep in mind this will not always succeed.
a moderator will roll twice on your behalf.
your first roll must be above 50 for the pokemon to survive. once a pokemon passes this check, they will automatically pass this check in future attempts. pokemon who do not roll above 50 will die.
your second roll must be above 65 to become a shadow pokemon. there are no consequences for failing. you must purchase another attempt to try again.
upon passing both checks, a moderator will post the results and the effects of your pokemon closing its heart. you may start using it after this information is posted.
characters who assist with furthering team rocket's plot or assisting in events may come across vouchers for the lab. mention that you are using the voucher in your request and provide a link to the thread the voucher was rewarded.
you may only have one shadow pokemon from the team rocket lab at a time unless you receive one from an item stating otherwise.
you may not trade any shadow pokemon acquired from the team rocket lab.
in order to use the rocket lab your character must have posted in-character at least four times in the last month. solo wild and safari threads do not count for this total.

Darkness pervades what the light can never reach.

[break][break]

Subjecting your Pokemon to immeasurable pain has closed its heart. In exchange for power you sacrificed your bond and innocence, growing violent and aggressive as you make the ultimate sacrifice. Only a few have experienced the tragedy of having their Pokemon undergo such a process.

[break][break]
Your Pokemon made it out alive the first time but the scars are infallible. Unwilling to let up after coming this far, you dip your hand back into the shadows, searching, starving.

You find yourself among them as you take one last look before your Pokemon undergoes Team Rocket's corruption. The Head Scientist declares this batch promising, proudly tapping a vial of the secret serum. The dull sound of backwards machinery click into place as your Pokemon starts to inhale cloudy fumes.

YOUR POKEMON HAS BEEN DEGRADED BY EVIL.

[break]

YOUR MIME JR. IS NO LONGER THE SAME!

[break][break]

anguish and pain only begin to describe the process of bringing out your pokemon's latent powers. the drug takes time to run its course but the pokemon contorts wildly almost immediately. bones crack and it stomach grumbles loudly before it inflates to the point of almost bursting. the evolutionary organ dissolves in a horrid mess, unsightly and horrific, but in its place is a resurgence of psychic powers unheard of. [break][break]

when the pokemon exits the shadow chamber it smiles with a haughty cackle. instead of lashing out in outrage it beams at those in the room with malicious intent. the intermission is over and the show must go on. the only difference is that this time mime jr. will be the star actor, pulling the closing curtain on anyone that dares outshine it. [break][break]

[attr="class","ihead"]SPECIAL ABILITIES

[break][break]

the pokemon has become more aggressive and violent.
they will no longer be able to MEGA EVOLVE or use Z-MOVES.
this pokemon can no longer evolve through normal means (shop items, ooc evolution methods). consult with SPIRAL if you would like to evolve mr. mime.
it now has an additional ability SHADOW MIMICRY; using a move that copies another pokemon's move such as MIMIC or COPYCAT will DISABLE that move from the pokemon being copied until mime jr. uses a different move.
mime jr. has unlocked an event move: GRUDGE. this is an exclusive 7th move that cannot be replaced.
