MUSIC FEST

MEMBER-LED EVENT ; DIRECT INQUIRIES TO SHIV

RISE UP INTO MY WORLD

SET BEFORE THE FIRST WAVE - IN LATE JULY A new resort island has seemingly appeared overnight by the waters between SOOTOPOLIS AND EVER GRANDE. Unbeknownst to many, this landmass was created by MATIAS SILPH and his GROUDON, under Commissioner dahlia goode's orders. The island is decorated, it's festive, and has the magical invitation that incites people to have fun.
[break][break]

All commodities for a music venue are present, from food plazas, multiple stages for performances and even accommodations for those who want to stay overnight. Security doesn't seem to be lacking, but with strong trainers with righteous hearts in every corner, no one would dare stir up trouble anyways. Everything as advertised are what it seems.

[break][break]

The caveat is that SPECIAL MAGNETIC FIELDS from the venue seem to interfere with signals and electronic devices for recording, leaving only radio devices for communication. This, however, promises an authentic experience as a once in a lifetime event void of recorded embarrassing performances and the lack of crowds who would rather watch through their phone screens at home.
[break][break]
This is the MELODY OF MEMORY -- a summer festival of music and songs for both those willing to make a break in the industry and perhaps those who just want to share the carefree fun of performance.

RENEW YOUR DEFINITION

People flock to the scene with expectations and excitement. The theme of the event was to make memories, spinning the negative of the venue's shortcomings and using it to leave a positive message.
[break][break]

Everyone is invited by TOP CHAMPION Melody Miro and newly inducted GYM LEADER DESIREE BLOOMS, alongside special guest PETALBURG CURATOR Yuina Higashi, to participate, whether as a performer or an audience.
[break][break]

The security team led by Thomas Benoit ensure people's confidence in the event, knowing that a major player is in the field should things go south. However, it won't, since it's a day for fun!
[break][break]

The opening ceremony is held on the first day, and from there on, the people of Hoenn are free to wander about the island. Whether it's to see a performance of a friend who haphazardly registered, an influencer who promised their fans that they'll have a show at the event, or just join the list of people playing for fun at the last minute, they are promised casual, lighthearted fun.[break][break]

For those skeptical, they will soon learn that this was less of a MUSIC FESTIVAL and more of a GLORIFIED KARAOKE NIGHT (or day).[break][break][break][break]

ARE YOU A ROCKET?

IF YOU ARE A ROCKET CHARACTER, you can still participate. ICly, Team Rocket may "retaliate" by blaring performances of their own from SOOTOPOLIS CITY. The syndicate may view the performances set on the island as League propaganda.

MECHANICS

WORLD SO HIGH

For this event, you will be CREATING YOUR OWN THREADS WITH THREE CHARACTERS MINIMUM (YOU AND TWO OTHER WRITERS). For these threads, you will have FOUR ROUNDS OF POSTING. A MODERATOR WILL NOT BE MAKING POSTS, for this is entirely run by you and your fellow writers.[break][break]

Each round displays the part of the routine your characters will experience once they set themselves on the stage. It is up to the players on how they portray such, but GUIDELINES for each round should still be followed. Said guidelines are established below.
[break][break][break][break]

FIRST ROUND

The FIRST ROUND will have characters act out their backstage banter with their group right before their performance starts. A general EMOTION will chosen, though if none of it appeals to the current situation your character feels, then choosing the closest possible stretch is acceptable.

[break][break]

• EXCITED - 3x pokeball
• CALM - 1x rainbow shard
• NERVOUS - 1x sparkling dust

[break][break]

SECOND ROUND

The SECOND ROUND incorporates the show itself, with each member posting a SONG that their group PERFORMS on stage. There will be two segments for each post:
[break][break]

Each post should show how the PERFORMANCE of the song went. This can include audience reaction, a character perspective of their performance, various Pokemon helping with special effects and such. Besides this, they are also required to involve an INTROSPECTION of the song based on how your character relates to it.
[break][break]

Like the last round, choosing the closest possible stretch is acceptable if none of these apply.[break][break]

• HAPPINESS - 1x level tutor
• SADNESS - 1x free evo
• TENDERNESS - 1x honey
• ANGER - 1x form change
• ANXIOUSNESS - 1x shard of choice (not tera shard; blue, green, yellow, red shards)

[break][break]

THIRD ROUND

The THIRD ROUND displays your character's closing remarks to their audience. They will be free to shoutout any of the following to their fans if any had stayed up to the end of their show.
[break][break]

• ADS/SPONSORSHIP- 50 PD
• MERCH - 1x gacha ticket
• ENCORE - 1x tm/tr
• NONE/OTHER- 1x move tutor

[break][break]

FOURTH ROUND

The FOURTH AND FINAL ROUND will showcase the awkward exit of the stage after every performance. Share how your character feels after the performance (i.e. banter with group, silent shaking, etc.) alongside a ROLL ON YOUR LAST POST.[break][break]

This round rewards 50 PD & 1X TINCTURE OF OIDEION for completion.[break][break]

[img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/msikma/pokesprite/master/items/hold-item/throat-spray.png" title="1X TINCTURE OF OIDEION - TEACHES THE MOVE, 'SING', TO A POKEMON" style="box-shadow:none;border:none;float:none;"][break][break]

After your last post, feel free to submit the thread to MOD REQUESTS and add the link of your performance thread in your registration post for archiving purposes. Rewards can be added to your PC by then.
