Sheesh, guys...


Character Specific:


- Mike is not to go round telling people that if they knock themselves out enough times, they acquire an immunity to it like Brandon did.

- The MSN Gang did appreciate the suggestion to change their name to 'Skype' to reflect the change in the times.

- Do not ask Nancy the Leavanny for haircuts unless you want a heart attack. (Wolf-Rizer’s appendix)

- Finsen the Sceptile is not to be referred to as the Pokeuman Spider-Man. (ShadowFire2921’s appendix)
:bulletblack: Patrick the Lucario is not to be referred to as the Pokeuman Green Goblin. Furthermore, anyone trying to orchestrate a showdown between the two will be told to go away.
:bulletblack: Liam West is not the Pokeuman Spider-Man either.

- Alex the Servine was not granted access to Connor’s time machine for his own personal recreation.

- Roush Bishop is not allowed to use "Eh, I could take him," as a reason for seeking a fight with a Pokextinction member anyone. (Snivyshadow’s appendix)

- Cassidy Rhodes’ job is not to enforce happiness, and he resents the implication.

- If the weapon is larger than any of his major body parts, Quark is not allowed access to it.


PRT Style:


- No matter how great a success the mission was, there will be no stopping off for beer runs on the way back.

- Do not start inspirational speeches with ‘Given the statistics from previous encounters, a good day against the likes of Pokextinction still means that one out of four of the people in this room will probably be dead before the day is done.’ (Snivyshadow’s appendix)

- ‘Create a distraction’ does not necessitate a dramatic public kiss, a song and dance routine or a re-creation of any of the finales of the games.

- We are not going to be able to simply buy Pokextinction out.

- The following words and phrases are never to used over the comms on an active mission ever again: ‘Take the shot, Juju!’ ‘Truck Yeah’, ‘FOR SPARTAAAAAA!’, ‘Ready or not, POOP INCOMING FAITH WHAT’, ‘I am Gotham’s reckoning’, ‘They expect one of us in the wreckage, brother’, ‘TONIGHT WE DINE IN HELL’, ‘YARRR, FEAR ME!’, ‘Delelelelelelelele…’ (All Carrier2’s suggestions, except the first – which is me –, and the last – which is Vicreshay’s)

- Other people can do recon duty than the Shedinjas, end of.

- Do not use the confiscated Pokextinction laser pistols to re-enact scenes from Star Wars. (Nathanthelucario’s appendix)

- Even if it’s actually a good idea, the human authorities will notice if we get the Water-types to re-direct a river through the Pokextinction base. Guess it’ll be the old-fashioned way, then.


General:


- Do not scare the new students with stories about the guy who used Growth right at the end of battle and got stuck that way.

- We wish to apologise for the error in the previous version of this post - There is now an official Pokeumans Drinking Game: tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php…

- Do not dispose of unwanted ‘humanite’ (humanisation rock) samples or Mega Stones via the medium of Ebay.

- Joltiks are not to be used as energy sappers, even if works. Nor is the phrase ‘And I murdered your toys as well’ necessary, even when attacking Golurks or Magnezones. (Yoshifull’s appendix)

- The correct term is ‘Pokeumans base’, not ‘Camp Half-Blood’. (LucariohybridoopsIdidn’tgetthenumbersontheendofyourname’s appendix)

- We have churches, mosques, temples and various other sundry places of worship. We do not need students in Greek Togas going round saying "You motherf***ers need Arceus." (Rhyshard-III’s appendix)

- Do not comb through the hacked backlogs of Pokextinction data looking for chicks’ phone numbers.

[[- Do not approach Pokextinction agents with wide-open arms saying ‘THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP COMPELS YOU’.

- Sniper agents, long-range support operatives and indeed anyone using a ranged attack do not have to 360 no-scope their enemies.]] (Inkarail’s appendices)

- Do not try and smash a Kabuto with a crowbar on the reasoning that ‘I thought it was a headcrab’.]] (Nathanthelucario’s appendices)

- Don’t judge Klefkis by their number of keyrings, and don’t encourage them to steal more of them.]] (Crazynoggin’s appendices)

:bulletblack: We’ve got to say it by this point… Dr. Octopus was not a hero to us all.

- Do not try and freak Brandon Chan out by moving Spiritus’ memoirs to the ‘Fiction’ section of the Long Island library.

:bulletblack: Using the move Fly to surprise a sleeping Snorlax is not recommended.
:bulletblack: Using any move to surprise a sleeping Snorlax is probably not recommended.

:bulletblack: You probably don’t want to see what happen if you do succeed either.]] (Carrier2’s appendices)

PRT Style:

- Do not put filibuster into PRT negociation talks.

:bulletblack: Probably.

- Do not attempt to use The Laws of Thermodynamics to score easy battle wins by seeking out the natural heat sinks of various Rock-types.

:bulletblack: So no trying to re-create it, either.

- Chucklevoodoos do not exist, and ghost types are to stop threatening to use them if they get angry.
:bulletblack: Fiduspawn is also not an existing thing.

- You are not Dr. Dolittle just because you can understand everyone else. We ALL speak ENGLISH here.
:bulletblack: …Localise the above bullet point to your own region appropriately.

- Any scientist that even considers trying to replicate Minori Kyobi the Jellicent's work is to have their lab access immediately rescinded.
:bulletblack: Any scientist that considers trying to replicate Dr. Elea Monroe's work is to have their lab access immediately rescinded. Both of those experiments ended in horrible massacres, including the scientist in question.

:bulletblack: Or Sawsbuck
:bulletblack: Or Rapidash
:bulletblack: Or Grumpigs

- There are far more dangerous things to a Pokéuman out there then a small child of indeterminate gender armed with a knife.  Get over it.

:bulletblack: Using Force Palm on your own forehead to express your frustration is a mistake you'll only make once.]] (IndiscriminantlyJust’s appendicies)

Update H

- Rescue agents are not obliged to follow the speed limit.
:bulletblack: Or for that matter any other rules of the road. We wouldn’t normally allow this sort of thing, but we just want to stop people having the excuse.

- Any mission plan that includes the words ‘ground tech’ will be automatically rejected.

- While we appreciate the ingenuity, the signature of the Extinctionist Commander’s clone will not legally bind him to abdicate his base.

[[- Raids are not to be accompanied by the Mission Impossible theme.

- Impressions of Rowdy Roddy Piper or Ash Williams are not appreciated. Saying ‘groovy’ after every time you knock someone out doesn’t change things.

- The stat-boosting combat items are not to be used recreationally.

[[- Re-enacting the chicken fight scenes from Family Guy with a Blaziken will go badly for all involved. The last ones still have detention for damaging base property.

- The link between the mythical hydra and Hydreigons does not mean one of their heads will grow back if removed.]] (andrewlee0520’s appendicies)

- The Magnezones will not go faster if you paint them red.

- Do not try and enforce your negotiating position by setting a Stealth Rock to hang ominously over their heads throughout.

:bulletblack: If you got your hands on a PRT version of the game, come and tell us. We won’t be too mad.
   * Although how did you leave the base to play in the first place?...

- Hyper Beams are not the universal problem-solving tool.
:bulletblack: Stealth Rocks are not the universal problem-solving tool.
:bulletblack: Lucarios are not the universal problem-solving tool.

[[- Goodras are no longer allowed to hug transformees. They have enough to worry about without a slime dragon pouncing on them.

- Speaking of Goodras, do not tease their pre-evolutions about not being real dragons. It WILL come back to haunt you.

- Just because the Pokedex says that Litwick eats away at one's soul doesn't mean that you have to avoid them all the time.

- Whoever keeps playing Party Rock over the PA system NEEDS TO KNOCK IT OFF.

:bulletblack: Even if you genuinely can do the time-slowing thing.

- Anyone possessing the ability Super Luck is to be kept well away from the human lottery. Play fair.

[[- Surprising an Espurr/Meowstic is not a recipe for fun, it is a recipe for property damage.
:bulletblack: Surprising Ed Parker the Espurr is like setting of an actual bomb, good job.

- The Lounge is not a speakeasy, ‘da club’ or the Copa Cobana. You do not have to talk like mobsters, pirates or rap artists while you are there.

- The following are not healing items: Pepsi, Coke or other soft drinks, My Cherona, the smiles of children, the Power of Rock, the Power of anything, white noise machines, dragon tears OR ANY OTHER DRAGON PART, dank memes, vapourware, Youtube videos, sick beats, the souls of the innocent, pop-rocks or ‘sandviches’.

- Asking Spindas if they’ve been drinking tonight is a wee bit offensive.

- ‘Tactical Gigalith Drop’ is not a mission strategy.

- Do not hire members of the public to carry mission equipment for you.

Round three, ladies and gentlemen! We physically couldn't get any more on the previous post.

Please keep sending in your suggestions for ideas, without them this post would collapse completely! Some external reading to inspire your devious minds:
The original (Skippy's List - 213 things you can't do in the US Army)
Things I Am Not Allowed To Do At Hogwarts
Things Mr. Welch Cannot Do In A Tabletop RPG (Note: Requires no actual knowledge of tabletop RPGs to find funny.)
And of course any others.

Also, please can we not have any more suggestions along these lines:
- 'Do not eat Swirlixes/Cherubis/etc'
- 'Blastoise are of no relation to King Koopa'
- 'If you are a Gengar, do not stalk Clefables pretending to be their shadow'
- 'The correct name is Fire Punch, not Falcon Punch.'
- Any and every form of comparison between Mr. X and Voldemort.
- Any and every form of comparison between Ninetales and characters from Naruto.
- 'Just because it worked for (insert) doesn't mean it will for you', or using that logic to justify your actions.
- 'Do not piss off (insert name here)' with no further novelty or context.
- Please, please stop sending me a post which is just a big list of '(Move from Pokemon) is not (move from anime/TV show/other game/manga/whatever)' several times.
- I haven't actually had this yet, but I'm nixing it before anyone says it: We don't need comparisons between Donald Trump and Gumshoos, end of.
We've had a couple of them - we don't need it repeating for every series under the Sun.
I get them quite a lot, even though they're on the list already. To save everyone's time, just take them out of your suggestions before sending them to me. Thanks.


Additionally: For those who clicked on the Drinking Game link in the first section, if you have ideas for that - or, more importantly, if you want to construct an author-specific ruleset! - then send those ideas to the comment box too while we're here. However, all - ANY AND ALL - additions to that page have to be run by me first, given its immense potential for Complaining About Fics You Don't Like. If I see any edits on that page at any time that weren't run by me first, I will instantly remove them regardless of what they say. Just making the position clear. It is not a vehicle for bashing people.
