Hello and welcome to Worldbuilding, a forum for, well, worldbuilding! Whether you enjoy creating elaborate worlds to supplement your fiction or love reading about others' worlds, this forum is for you.
First and foremost, this forum isn't limited to Pokémon. While you're encouraged to post about your Pokémon-based world, this forum covers everything from that to original fiction to completely different fandom universes. You're even free to post headcanon threads!
There are only three real rules to keep in mind here:
1. One thread = one world to ensure that everything you've got for that world is in one place. If you've got other fictional universes, consider creating a new thread to keep things nice and neat. Definitely do not make multiple threads for a single world unless you're starting over and would like the older thread closed, as this may cause confusion.
2. Use the thread labels so people can tell right away what sort of universe to expect. (To apply a label, click the small gear in the top right-hand corner of the post box—on the same line as where you type in your subject—and click "Labels." Select the label that best applies to your thread.)
The labels are as such:
-- Pokémon: For fan worlds/regions/etc. set in the Pokémon franchise.
-- Original: For original fiction.
-- Non-Pokémon Fan Universe: For fan worlds set in a canon that isn't Pokémon.
3. All other board rules apply. Please consult a staff member if you're unsure if the content you want to cover would violate a rule. (For the record, though, in most cases, it should be fine. It's only borderline if you're talking at length about drugs, sexual topics, or extreme violence.)
But most importantly, have fun!
