Summer Beach Party! {Auction}

Raffle waffle for me.

I'd probably show up for the auction too, though not bid on anything because my internet sucks and I'm counting on AIM to lag for me 100%.

Soulmaster · Jul 23, 2014

I can do the raffle.

Oh, and I think I need an invite to the chat.

I've invited everyone to the blast who has posted their AIM screen name in this thread. If you don't post your AIM screen name, I can't add you (unless you're like Ash, who has it in his signature); I'm not a mind reader, I can't just magically know your AIM screen name, and it's a lot of work to just go through my AIM list & see who you are. It's a lot easier if you tell me. I'll be adding people as they tell me, either here or on AIM or on Skype, so just let me know.

After 5pm EST tomorrow (Saturday), I won't be adding anyone as I'll be starting the auction at exactly 5pm EST, so if you're late & you're not in the chat, have someone else add you.

Raffle list updated to this point. If you would like to be in the raffle, you have until the end of the auction to post to be entered. I'll be making a post on all 3 forums before I do the rolls; said post will later be updated with the auction items, who won them, & all that fancy stuff.

Also, if you would like to be at the auction, whether to watch or to actually bid, please tell me your AIM screen name (the one you use to log in) either in this thread, on AIM, on Skype, or privately on any of the three forums; after 5pm EST today, when the auction begins, please do not ask me to add you to the blast, and instead ask one of our other lovely members to add you instead. If you're just going to watch, you are still subject to the remainder of the auction rules, and I can, and will, kick you from the blast if you are disruptive in any way.

The auction is at 5pm EST today. That is in approximately 14 and a half hours away from this post.

Hello, everyone, and welcome to URPG's Summer Beach Party! Woo! Are you all excited?

*pause for comments*

Of course you are. And if you're not, then that's okay too, I guess. You're allowed to be lame if you want, I won't judge you. I can't speak for everyone else here though, sorry.

What I think we need to do, however, is take a walk around. See what this beach has to offer, y'know? Who knows, you may find something, or someone (wink wink) you may want to take home with you! :0

I'll be leading you guys around the beach, showing you all the cool, radical stuff we have around here, but I'd like to hear where you'd like to go. Before we do, though, I want to say that if you're gonna catch something, you can only do it once unless I say otherwise. Think wisely, my friends. To start things off, let's take a vote: do you all want to go to the restaurant or the pier?

Auctioned Item #1
The restaurant, you say? Alright then, let's take a walk to the restaurant! As you can see, this is a crab shack, a seafood place, basically. It's pretty chill. I'm not a seafood person, but I like me some shrimp, and this place has some pretty rad shrimp.

Oh... what's that? A Krabby? Oh, look, it's in the crab tank. We can totally sneak it out of here, if you guys want, but you gotta pay up. Bidding starts at $1000!
Option 1 - Krabby

The pier, you say? Alrighty then, to the pier we go!

Pretty boring place, if you ask me, but you can fish here. I hear there's all sorts of Pokemon in the water there. You might even find a Pikachu that fell off its surfboard in there! Haha, geddit? 'Cause Pikachu surfs? HAHAHHAHAHAHA. I know, I'm so funny. They pay me for this.

Oh, hey, look! A fisherman! And he's holding out the Corphish he just caught towards us! Any of you want it? You gotta bid for it though, and the bidding starts at $1000!
Option 2 - Corphish (SLCalamity @ 20250)

Congratulations, SLC! Take good care of that Corphish, y'hear? If you don't, that Pokemon ain't gonna like you, and that ain't no fun. Now then, SLC, since you bet so much money on that Corphish you just got, you can have a second prize of your own. You, my friend, get to choose where we go next! So tell me, do you think we should go to the gym or the dance studio?

Auctioned Item #2
The gym it is! Excellent choice, my friend!

Here at the gym, you can get buff! Tuff! Ruff! Lift them weights! Get buff! Get tuff! Get ruff! Woo! Running machines, weight lifting machines... I don't come here much. I get all my exercise from walking around this beach, giving tours. It's a lot of work. I go home, and I'm like "I'm so done with walking, ugh."

No, but seriously. Look at that buff guy over there. Look. It's a Makuhita. Look at that buff little guy... or gal. I can't really tell. Whatever you want it to be, I guess. And hey, look. We can even take it home with us. It looks like it's got a pretty radical item too! Bidding starts at $1000, ladies and gentlemen!
Option 1 - Makuhita + one Choice item

The dance studio is pretty popular, I think, among our guests. Especially the males... I wonder why.

That stretch, mhm. Some fierce stretch there. Yep. Look at them dancers stretchin' and gettin' ready for their dance practice! *snaps fingers* Alright, pay attention! To me, not them! I'm your tour guide, not them! I'm obviously prettier! *hair flip* No, but seriously, look at that Meditite there. It looks like its holding some sorta orb while its stretching too... how about you all nab it?! Bidding starts at $1000!
Option 2 - Meditite + Medichamite (swiftgallade46 @ 28000)

Congratulations, Swifty! Nice catch you just got there with that Meditite. You now get to choose our next location! Your options are the aquarium or a museum, and before you ask, they're not necessarily the same thing. :0 So which would you like to go to?

Auctioned Item #3
The aquarium, you say? Okay. Sounds like a plan!

Fishes galore! Huzzah! Look at those pretty Magikarp and Feebas... and a Milotic too! So beautiful. I've always wanted a Milotic. She's so beautiful, ugh... Oh, hey! Look, everyone! There's an Inkay here, and they're selling it to the highest bidder! You know you want one, so start bidding! The bidding starts at $1000!
Option 1 - Inkay

The museum, you say? Okay then, let's go!

This is actually an aquatic museum. Not an aquarium. An aquatic museum. I'm not sure what the fancy name for it is, but for our purposes, we can call it an aquatic museum. We don't need fancy schmancy terms anyways. So anyways, how about these ancient bones from the aquatic Pokemon? Pretty radical, yeah? Oh? What's this? A Horsea, just wandering around this museum. Do any of you want it? The bidding starts at $1000!
Option 2 - Horsea (Airik @ 42000)

Congratulations, Airik! Enjoy your new Horsea! Tell you what, since you just won that Horsea, you can pick out where we go next. Do you want to go to the sandy beach shore or the rocky beach shore?

Auctioned Item #4
Sandy beach shore it is! I tell ya, this place is safer than the rocky beach shore anyways. Glad ya picked it, *insert username here*! I wouldn't want any of you to get hurt... then I'd have to help pay for the medical expenses, and I've got Pokemon I need to EM too. They don't even pay me for this, y'know? I do these tours for free! I have to do Pokemon battles and ref battles and grade stories and take people on park runs to get my money! It's so tiring!

Whoa! What was that?! Oh! Hi there, Mr. or Mrs., I dunno what you are, Shuckle! I don't think we should mess with this Shuckle here, guys. I have a more appropriate phrase to use, but the usage of profanity in it prohibits me from using it while I'm on duty. Talk to me after your tour, and I'll let y'all in on that phrase, okay? Anyways, do any of you want this Shuckle? The bidding starts at $1000!
Option 1 - Shuckle

Rocky beach shore it is! I should warn y'all now though, it is pretty dangerous here at the rocky beach shore. Those rugged rocks hurt. Be careful, okay, guys? No horseplaying! If I have to pay any of y'all's medical bills on my non-existant salary and take away from my poor Pokemon that desperately need EMs, I'm not gonna be too happy!

Oh, hey, look! That rock's moving! And it's got some orange on it... that's a hermit crab, that is! A Dwebble! Do any of you want it? The bidding starts at $1000!
Option 2 - Dwebble (Joltik @ 24000)

Congratulations on your new Dwebble, Joltik! I hope you enjoy him/her/whatever you want it to be. BE WHATEVER YOU WANT TO BE, KIDDIES! WHATEVER. YOU. WANT. TO BE. Now then, Joltik, where would you like to go now? The souvenier shop or the underwater exploration center?

Auctioned Item #5
Alrighty, to the souvenier shop we go then!

Here, you can buy all sorts of URPG based regalia to take home with you when you leave here. And we have everything you could ever dream of. T-shirts, coffee mugs, teddy bears that look like Teddiursa and Cubchoo, coral rocks... that apparently move... oh! That's a Corsola that is! Up for grabs, and the bidding starts at $1000!
Option 1 - Corsola

Alrighty, to the underwater exploration center we go!

This is where they organize underwater explorations and the like. You can go under the water and swim with the Carvanha and Sharpedo if you'd like! Why don't we do it? It's free 'cause you're with me! ... Underwater is so great, isn't it? So beautiful too. Ahhhh. So relaxing. Don't worry, the Carvanha and Sharpedo won't attack you. You'll be safe. The Pokemon here are passive if you don't provoke them.

Speaking of passive Pokemon, look at that lonely Clamperl there! The bidding for it starts at $1000, so bid now!
Option 2 - Clamperl (Lovecraft @ 23110)

Nice work winning that Clamperl, Lovecraft! With your newly earned Pokemon in hand, you get to choose where we go next! Your choices are the merry-go-round or the tent over there. Which would you like to go to?

Auctioned Item #6
To the merry-go-round we go! Everyone get on a horse! We're gonna ride around! Wooo!

So while we're spinning around, I just want to say that I hope you're all having fun so far on this tour! I try to make them as enjoyable as possible, haha. This is fun, isn't it? Be happy I'm one of those fun tour guides and not a super lame one. We have one of those here, and they're so boring. Everyone hates him. He's just ugh.

Alright, ride's over and it looks like the auction begins! Look over there in that stable! It's a Ponyta! Bidding for it starts at $1000, so start fighting over it now!
Option 1 - Ponyta + 10k Daycare Pass

The tent, you say? Alright, but I hear the tent's pretty weird... There's an odd Pokemon in there, and he or she, I'm really not sure which it is, is really weird. I'll let y'all take him or her home though if you want.

That's a Drowzee in there. Probably lost in a hypnotic state right now. A lot of the guests that come in here say that this guy or gal puts people in a dreamlike state for a while and eats their dreams or something. I dunno, it's pretty weird if you ask me. I usually try to avoid this place if I can. Anyways, the bidding for this Drowzee starts at $1000, so start yellin' out numbers, kiddies!
Option 2 - Drowzee + 10k Daycare Pass (Ayo @ 23850)

Awesome! You're now the proud owner of a Drowzee, Ayo! Take good care of him or her... I don't check the genders on these things, sorry. You'll have to figure that out yourself, I'm afraid. In the meantime, however, you get to pick where we travel to next! There's a jungle over there, we're gonna go in there for a little bit, and then I'll let you choose where we go.

This place is pretty neat. You can find a variety of Pokemon here in the jungle, and on the beach as a whole as I'm sure you've noticed. The path up here splits, you see. We can either head for the east or the west. It's your pick, Ayo, so do you want to go to the east or the west?

Auctioned Item #7
The east, you say? Well then, to the east we go! It certainly smells fruity down here, doesn't it? It usually does whenever I come down here. Smells like bananas. There's usually a pretty friendly Tropius that's down here. Maybe one of you will get to take it home today!

Yep! There it is! Tropius! Hey, Tropius! One of these nice ladies or gentlemen will be taking you home today! Are you excited? Yeah, I know you are, Tropius~ Welp, guys, the bidding starts at $1000!
Option 1 - Tropius (Prince Vultan @ 25250)

The west it is then~ There's a very nice firefly population down here. Usually a pack of Volbeat or Illumise. They're never together though. It's typically one or the other, but never both. I wonder which one we'll run into tonight... Whichever it is, they're so pretty. I've always loved fireflies. I used to catch them as a little girl; it was pretty fun.

Looks like Volbeat tonight, guys! And there's only one here, so you've lucked out! You guys can try and nab this one! You all should know the deal by now; the bidding starts at $1000!
Option 2 - Volbeat

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice~ I told y'all the jungle had some nice stuff. Vultan and his new Tropius prove that! Can't say the price was that great, but that's just me. I'm cheap like that. Ah well, to each their own as they always say. Anyways, when we get back to the beach, Vultan, you can choose where we go next.

Alrighty~ Back at the beach we are! It's late out now, and it gets pretty radical out here at night. The party begins when it's dark outside. Now, it's my understanding that you all may or may not have heard there would be a tiki bar here at this party. Well, you heard correctly. Yep, that's right. There is a tiki bar. But it's not everyone's choice where we go 'cause there's also the vegetable patch we can go to. It's Vultan's choice where we go next. So Vultan, shall we go to the tiki bar or the vegetable patch?

Auctioned Item #8
Of course you would pick the tiki bar. Everyone picks the tiki bar, ugh. It's like y'all don't eat yer vegetables. I don't blame ya. I don't really eat vegetables either. Oh well. Anyways, this is the tiki bar. You can get all sorts of drinks here, alcoholic and non-alcoholic. You minors aren't supposed to have alcohol, but if you drink something, I'm not gonna tattle. Can't speak for anyone else here though, sorry.

We've also got this friendly Litwick here that's up for auction! Yep, another Pokemon you can spend your hard earned money on! The bidding for this here Litwick starts at $1000!
Option 1 - Litwick

Well, it's good to know some people like vegetables. Not everyone does. Good to know you do, Vultan. Good to know. Anyways, a bit of fun fact about this vegetable patch. It's here that all of the vegetables used in the foods at the restaurants and bars are grown. Every single one of them. Even the fish are locally caught from the pier. It's pretty cool, if you ask me. Promoting your local people, it's great. Y'all should try it. Small businesses are great, and they have the best service.

But we have here the best Pumpkaboo. Like this little guy here. Save the Pumpkaboo. It'll become pumpkin pie if you don't. Just kidding, they won't do that. They'll let the Pumpkaboo go free. They would never harm a Pokemon here on this island. Never. But this Pumpkaboo is up for auction, and y'all are allowed to bid on it, so that's a thing too! Bidding starts at $1000, everyone!
Option 2 - Pumpkaboo (DarknessRuler @ 36000)

We're getting close to the end of our tour here... a shame, really. I've really enjoyed spending time with y'all. Since DR was the winner of our last Pokemon that got auctioned off, he gets to pick where we go next. Your options, DR, are the aviary or the educational pool where you can actually touch live Pokemon! Which shall I take y'all to next?

Auctioned Item #9
The aviary is a popular choice for the adults, apparently, haha. The kiddies always pick the educational pool. Probably because they can touch things and whatnot. I dunno. Kids are weird. .-. I could never understand them, really.

Lots of bird Pokemon in here, obviously. There's one in particular they really want to get rid of, it's over here. Here. This Murkrow. You even get this purple orb here next to it because they're so desperate to get rid of it. It keeps attacking the people that come in, so they had to cage it up to keep business to this beach steady, that kinda thing. Anyways, you can have this Murkrow, but y'all gotta bid, and you should know by now that starts at $1000!
Option 1 - Murkrow + Eviolite

Cool. We can go to the educational pool. I'm surprised you picked this route, DR. Usually the little kids drag a family member here, and I literally mean drag, so they can touch all the animals. It's a kid thing, really. Then again, adults can be kids too. Who says we have to grow up, eh?

We've only got one thing in here right now. There used to be some crabs in here, but the little kids hurt them, so they're at the nearby town's Pokemon Center to be mended and taken care of before they come back to us. Silly kids. But whatever. Keep it on the down low, but I'll let one of you take this Tynamo home with you if you bid on it. Bidding starts at $1000, as usual!
Option 2 - Tynamo + 10k Daycare Pass (Monbrey @ 28000)

Okay, listen up, kiddies! You all have one more choice ahead of you. Well, actually, I lied a bit. Monbrey has one more choice ahead of him. The rest of you, unless you've already bid on something, have one more choice about whether or not you want this "last" Pokemon to be auctioned off, y'hear? Good. Now Monbrey, your two choices are a boat ride or the play area. Which shall you choose?

Auctioned Item #10
Ah, the boat ride. Always wonderful. Relaxing too. We get to sit down, and there's not that many opportunities to do that during this tour, lemme tell ya. I'm sure you've all noticed, based on the choices that have been made. I mean, I guess if you won something, you could sit down, but then you wouldn't get to see what else this place has to offer!

Hey, look! It's a Lapras! Stop the boat, Joe! And it's coming to say hi! Hi Lapras! Shame there's not a dolphin Pokemon that's been discovered. Oh well. Guess this Lapras will have to suffice. Bidding for this here Lapras begins at $1000!
Option 1 - Lapras (WinterVines @ 36000)

I knew y'all were kids at heart. Especially you, *name*. Why else would you choose the play area? Alright, go have some fun! Come back in five minutes, and I'll have a nice little surprise for y'all!

Okay! Your five minutes are up! Gather 'round, everyone! Come one, come all! Take a look at this nice little Drifloon we have here. One lucky tour participant can win this guy or gal, again, I don't check these things, for the low, low price of... I don't know. You tell me. Bidding starts at $1000!
Option 2 - Drifloon

Congratulations Winter on your newly earned Lapras! It's time to listen up, kids! Every single one of you, even the ones that have already won something at this wonderful beach party slash auction, can bid on this next item, alright? The remainder of the rules of this auction still apply though, so keep those in mind while yer biddin'!

Thank you, gentlemen. These two gentlemen here are holding two Poke Balls, and inside those Poke Balls is a Pokemon. You also get a fun surprise with these Pokemon, so keep that in mind too. I won't spoil it for you, after all, it is a surprise. Now then, Winter, you get to choose what everyone here fights over now. Will it be the Pokemon on the white pillow or the Pokemon on the black pillow?

Auctioned Item #11 - Blind auction; all can participate
The white pillow? Alrighty then... The Pokemon being auctioned off now is a Rotom, and with it comes a Secret Key to change Rotom's forme into whatever you want it to be, whether it's the lawnmower it always wanted to be or the washing machine it always wanted to be! Bidding starts at $1000, everyone!
Option 1 - Rotom + Secret Key

The black pillow? Alrighty then... The Pokemon being auctioned off now is an Eevee, and with it comes the evolution stone of your choice to make that Eevee whatever you want it to be! Bidding starts at $1000, everyone!
Option 2 - Eevee + Evolution Stone of Choice (CommBA @ 50000)

The final item to be auctioned, hooray! Again, everyone can participate in this final auction with the exception of one person: CommBA. Since CommBA won the last item, he cannot bid again for this final item. However, also since CommBA won the last auction, he gets to pick what you all get to bid on. So your options are the magenta pillow or the green pillow. Which shall you choose?

Auctioned Item #12 - Blind auction; all can participate except the winner of #11
Magenta pillow it is! The final auction is a Houndour! With it comes the Mega Stone for its evolution, Houndoominite! Bidding starts at $1000!
Option 1 - Houndour + Houndoominite (swiftgallade46 @ 40000)

Green pillow it is! The final auction is an Abra! With it comes the Mega Stone for its evolution, Alakazite! Bidding starts at $1000!
Option 2 - Abra + Alakazite

And that's the auction! Thank you to everyone that attended, and congratulations to everyone who won something! Stick around to see who wins the raffle, and also to see what post auction activities are happening. Just because the auction's over doesn't mean that the party's over! Let's keep the party going!
