Gotta Catch 'Em All!


Besides new rules, the Revised book also rounds out the cast of sample characters with a few new faces. This guy here is one of them, and he's for all of you monster battling fans out there. (You know who you are). Yuu's write-up is true to form: He can give his monster companion commands, but the more powerful ones can only performed after he has built up his Level in a unique Ability: Trust.

If that's not fit for Saturday Morning romps, then I don't know what is! But Yuu's quest has more serious tones. Not only is his chronically ill sister missing, no one seems to remember she ever existed. He only hopes that with his newfound friend, he can uncover the mystery surrounding her disappearance.

  1. sounds more interesting than most of the other monster fighting shows on air these days! glad you added rules to cover this stuff in the main rulebook coz it's bound to ssave a fair few headaches at the gametable.

  3. Hey, if you think this character mixes genres, wait till you see the number of tropes the next one manages to encapsulate. ;D

  4. Hell yeah. Clay, this will probably be the only reason I buy the revised edition. I love Pokémon games so OVA should be a blast. I have a list at Amazon.com with "games like Pokémon." Check it if you need more source material.

  5. I'm getting more and more curious about what the revised will look like. I myself just picked up the game today, after several days of research, and I'm in love.

    But after reading the blog, i've made notes of the changes so that I can run them in the game I'll be running... Keep up the good work Clay.
