This will all be updated over the break.
Welcome to, the new game...
Pokemon Berry Farm
Based on a game I played in World History...
This is a game of survival and competition, with a lot of chance. You may enter this game at anytime.
Cue Backstory:
As a small farming Pokemon, you make your living by growing and selling Berries and eating them yourself. But as with every industry, there's always competition, so you need to be the smart farmer. Perhaps you can spend your extras on tools or watering pitchers, or hire workers to increase production exponentially while having to pay expenses? Or maybe you decide to present offerings to the Gods for good harvest or rainfall? At the same time you want to increase your standard of living by buying nice things and upgrading your farmhouse and land. What will happen?
You Decide!
To Enter, Let me know that you would like to join along with a Pokemon and its name, and he or she will be your farmer. As of now you start with a farm house, a lone acre and a berry crop.
You will gain your harvest of berries each "Year" (not really a year, probably a day or two depending on my schedule for the time being). The set number is 10 baskets of berries a year, and you need to eat 5 each year. Of course these numbers can be varied numerous ways, mainly depending on the your purchases and Gods and Nature (Both controlled by me
)What you may do in the year:
Visit the shrines- Either or a combination of the Groudon, Kyogre, Shaymin, or the mighty Arceus shrines where you can leave an offering to them consisting of at least 1 basket. This is not required but may help keep land fertile and keep droughts away. Keep in mind, Gods may get angry if they're under-appreciated, but do like giving gifts.
Visit the shop- Here you may purchase various things to help your farm or improve your life in general.
Here is the Current Market:
The Market:
Charze's Shop
Tools:
Watering can(4 baskets)-Increases yearly output by 2 baskets
Hoe(6 baskets)-Increases yearly output by 3 baskets
Farm worker(Pay 5 baskets a year)- Will add 10 baskets (usually) to yearly output as long as employed. (you may choose to terminate at anytime but will still have to pay 2 baskets for the year terminated)
Goods:
Farmer Hat(4 baskets)- Its an awesome farmer hat(5 points)
Rifle(10 baskets)- I don't know why you'd need it, but it looks nice over your fireplace. (15 points)
Log Cabin(30 baskets)- Changes your farm house to a Log Cabin(40 points)
Landorus Shrine(20 baskets)- A shrine honoring Landorus, the God of Good Harvest.(30 points)
Tree House(15 baskets)- Who doesn't want one of these?(20 points)
Barn Stuff:
Barn(50 baskets)- Adds a barn for all your Miltank(can hold 20) (75 points) *Can store cows or have space rented out*
Barn Upgade 1(150 baskets)- Allows your barn to hold 50 Miltanks
Barn Upgrade 2(500 baskets)- Allows your barn to hold 100 Miltanks
Cow/Miltank(15 baskets)- Can provide 20 baskets if in a barn per year. Always needs 10 baskets to eat per year.

-------------------------------------------
*Note*: For right now you may only have one of each Good.
The barn is a money making tool. After buying a barn, you can buy
) But since they are Pokemon they still need to eat 5 baskets.Alternatively, if you want, you could rent space to some of the other farmers. This can be done by posting an ad on the forum or from private messages between each other. I would recommend somewhere around 5 baskets for renting per year, but I'll leave that amount up to the owner. But I need mutual confirmation from both the tenant and owner. (tip, try working out a deal BEFORE buying cows/Miltanks)
Of course, you may always choose to save some baskets in your storehouse if you wish to.
You lose if you are in debt or do not have enough Berries to eat. (That will probably be hard, but just saying.)
You may do all 3 or only one or more. It's your choice.
After making your business decisions (from the Shop), Please post your actions for that week, Along with your farmer name, and how much over all you have leftover. I will give a year conclusion of what everyone harvested for the next year.
Jobs
Jobs are very crucial to the success of this game.
The Reminders- This is the person who sends out reminder messages to everyone. If you look at the very bottom of the first post, it has an easy way to send messages to all who are playing which I put there for mine and now your own convenience. This is a simple job but I will pay you 10 baskets a "Year." I'm may only take one right now. One PMs at the beginning of a new year, one PMs during the year as a second reminder
All Reminder positions are currently full.
The Ambassadors to the Gods- This is a very important position, as it is basically the people that run the game. Your job is to help take off a huge burden of mine which is figuring out harvests. I unfortunately do not have the time to do this for everyone. You will be assigned farmers and be responsible for recording their orders, making sure it is the correct form, figuring out the God Gifts(which I have to approve, which is why you must send them in early), then getting them to me. Some very important things, is that if you can't not recorded that year for whatever reason, you HAVE TO let me know so I can account for that. You will have to send them to me about a day before the year starts. However it is very rewarding as I will give 30 baskets a year and maybe eventually more, if you do your job. I will take as many as I can get, and the more we have, the easier it is to do our jobs.
I'm always taking people in this job.
I would like you to all follow this new form for orders:
Farmer Name- Starting Total
Expenses- X (X=the sum of eating, pay, feed, and any other expenses)
Purchases- (list purchases with berry amounts for each)
Gifts to the Gods- (list the total amount to each)
(Total Remaining # of Baskets) [+(Total Boosts of tools/cows/job)]*
*Your current boost is with your Harvest amount
Example:
Charze-500 baskets
Expenses- 50
Buying 1 Cow, 5 Hoes, and 2 Workers (-50)
Gifting 50 to KS and GS, 100 to AS
Leftover- 200 [+55]
Questions can be asked on the thread, and I'll also take suggestions or ideas on how to improve the game, PM or post. (Please feel free to post or talk strategy or whatever to fill my posts
)Even if you plan to only save what you have you must let me know. If I receive no decision, you will not gain nor lose but be idle except for eating 5 baskets, but constant no responses may result in the destruction of your farmer. I will do my best to keep track of everything but I recommend you keep your own stats and do the math yourself in case I make a mistake, and feel free to let me know I did.
Also, if you are looking for a way to further your farming, check out Zaboo's({(•)___(•)}) new game Pokemon Tycoon (http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?t=550421), where you can get a Pokemon, level it up and evolve it to have as your own.
I am cooperating with the game so you can exchange between your berries and cash in order to succeed in both.
Now you can sell your berries for cash in Pokemon Tycoon!
You can sell 5 baskets of Berries for $1. I need all purchases in multiples of 5. Don't complain about it being to small, since you will soon be getting very high harvests and will be able to rack up some serious cash.
Be the Richest Berry Farmer there is!
