Unlike your average denizen in the world, who tends to the capture and battling of pokemon, Rangers are an elite, trained force of authority who take on the responsibility of maintaining balance and peace. A ranger’s duty is to protect and befriend both human and pokemon alike. Energy can be refilled at any mart, pokemon center or police department.

Mehcanic[]

Rangers have Stylers. Stylers have 10 units of energy and are used to Restrain pokemon, wild or owned, and make them temporary allies. Befriend and Companion are examples of Ranger Features which use Styler energy. To Restrain a Wild Pokemon, use 1 point of energy and roll 1d100. If the result is less than the pokemon’s Capture Rate, the pokemon is Restrained.

Ranger Gifted Features[]

Befriend[]

Trainer Action
League Legal
At-Will
Trigger: You attempt to restrain a wild pokemon with the Styler.
Effect: Subtract 10 from your restrain roll. Once you successfully Restrain a pokemon, you may give it the Helpful title. Until this ally is attacked, severely distracted, or has helped the Ranger in a significant manner once it is under the Ranger’s guidance. You do not get a list of any capabilities or moves you cannot deduce yourself, and it cannot be taken from the area you found it in or it will run away. You may only give the Helpful title to one Pokemon at a time.

Companion[]

Trainer Action
League Legal
At-Will
Trigger: You restrain a wild pokemon with the Styler.
Effect: Once you successfully Restrain a wild pokemon, you may give it the Companion title. You may only have one Companion at a time. If you give a new pokemon the Companion title, you free the other pokemon and replace it with your new Companion. To make the wild a Companion you must sacrifice half an hour upon giving it the Companion title to bond with the wild. The Companion gains experience and levels exactly like a Captured pokemon, but cannot participate in official battles or contests (doing so is fraud). The pokemon cannot be returned to a poke ball and it costs 150 credits to heal at a pokemon center. The Companion is considered Helpful.
