Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hello, and welcome to Alpha's Lab. We're a independant group dedicated to trying what no one else will, and bringing to what should to into existance. We're happy to have you, a valued second party interested in our group and thank you for visiting us today. Please feel free to browse the lobby. Should you require assisstance feel free to ask the attendant at the desk to call up one of the Techs for you. Have a pleasant visit and we hope that your time here is spent welland that you might wish to aide our group in furthering our research.


Alpha's Lab is an RP intensive breedables shop based around 'Pokemon.' This is your only warning, if you dislike either RP, or Pokemon you should leave now. Also if you dislike slightly crazed pink haired wardens I'd reccomend exiting. Alpha's bound to show up sometime.

Raj-er Alpha Tech has a short temper, she really isn't much of a people person either. This goes to say that following these rules is in your best interest. As well if Alpha is snapping, you can assume the other Techs might be just a little on the iffy side as well. Don't push your luck, it won't be good for you.

There area few people you should certainly know about before you come into the lab. Specifically who works here. Below are some basic profiles of the main Tech's for your well being.

Alpha Tech
Ah yes, the person who created this whole monstrosity. Her greatest concern is just what her freaks of nature can do, or will do. What will stay from their old times, and what can she do to screw them up more. She's not the most caring creature, and so doesn't care for any child of her own, but she'll certainly let you have a chance with a child for enough money. She doesn't so much care how you treat them, as she does what effect it has on them. Just what will her little brainchild turn into, she wants to know... Most definitely she wants to know.

One of Alpha's assitants, no one is quite sure just how he ended up around the lab nor does anyone get why Alpha puts up with him . More often than not he simply spends his days with his feet up on his desk reading the newspaper, smoking. The man continually has a five o'clock shadow making his rough and gruff appearance stand out even more. He has a horrible temper and is a rather violent. For those curious, it would probably best to leave Zeta alone.

Iota Tech
One of the recently hired techs, Iota is the self-proclaimed "lazy tech", though his actions often prove the contrary. Only really lazy when there's no work to be done, he busies himself by doing little things around the labs, like organizing Alpha's junk paperwork. He is often seen trailing after her with a clipboard in hand, asking lots of questions and scribbling her answers down furiously. Sociable when not busy, snappy when up to his ears in work.

One of the newer tech, Gamma is also one of the crazier ones. She treats everyone like a child, no matter how old they might be. Alpha probably only puts up with Gamma because she's good with the projects that haven't been given out yet. Gamma's primary duties are caring for those projects, though she can be seen wandering around doing other things occasionally.

New arrivals, or perhaps your child has just had gotten older. Maybe they've even had some rather durastic changes take place.

What's coming up, what's what, and where do you go? This is the place to look for such information. Alpha doesn't exactly do things in the most orthadox manner, and you'll find the reason why we can say that below.

Application(Prompt Flatsale)
This is where people may apply for a limited amount of children. Alpha will look through the applications, and... Choose at random most likely. The donation amount for these children will be set, and anyone will be welcome to enter. Unless they have something that makes it so they can't, but that's obvious.

Planned
None Planned

Low On funds(Auction)
This means Alpha's gotten desperate, she's a bit low on cash. That means she needs to dig up some serious moolah in a hurry. Thus this is essentially an auction. She'll whip up something special for this usually, maybe dump in something to screw the kid up, a black Mew? Yea, she can do that. Or maybe she'll make one to the person's desire. These tend to be the most special of the kidlets, thus why she saves them for such times. You might even come across twins in this!

Planned
None Planned

Roulette(Raffle)
Alpha's gotten bored, and she wants to tease the masses. So she's grabbed a kid, and told people they can have a ticket, or maybe more. Of course they have to pay for the tickets, but it won't be as expensive as a lot of other things. All in all, Alpha will let people get tickets over a period of time, and then draw one. Whoever gets drawn gets the brat. End of story.

Planned
None Planned

Overflow(Roleplay Contest[Free])
Oops, Alpha accidentally had a bit too much fun. She's got a few too many kids. To the point even the donations aren't keeping up. She's going to toss one up to the best applicant, again she might use her snazzy method of choosing by being random. Either way, she'll find someone to toss the kid(s) at soon enough.

Planned
None Planned

Oh? You want something made to taste? Yes, Alpha can do that... For a price. Below are methods to getting one of these just right kiddos as well as a form that would be filled out. Oh, and maybe just the kind of fees you'd need to bribe the woman. Hey, Alpha firmly believes money makes the world go round.

Ways to obtain a custom
1: Through an Auction
2: Through a Pet Trade(Details in Pet Trade post)
3: Bribing Alpha if there is a Bribe slot open

If you've met one of the following standards or have interest in bribing Alpha fill out the form below and PM it to Alpha Tech. Make sure it is completely filled out, or Alpha will take artistic right to fill in what you leave out.

Custom Form

Gaia Name: (Whoever will be owning the child)
Caretakers Name: (ICly the parents name.)
Kids Name: (Child's Name for cert)
Pokemon Base: (Must be lowest possible stage for pokemon)
Gender: (Male or Female)
Pokemon Characteristics it should still have: (What features on the pokemon do you want the child to have)
Eye color: (Specific is good)
Skin Tone: (Any notable makings on the body as well should be stated, such as spots, stripes...)
Hairstyle & Color: (specific is good. Hair can be multiple colors.)
Starting Clothing: (simple clothes, these are ones given by the lab & Alpha is cheap)
Outline Personality: (Just a basic toddler personality outline)
Pose: (Pose ideas for toddler stage)


Black Market(Bribe)
This would be Alpha's favourite way to do business. This is were someone was sooo desperate for their own kidlet, that they hunted her down and are tossing a load of cash in her direction. Enough that she can't turn it down. Essentially, you're bribing her to make you the kid of your dreams. Ain't that fantastic?

Special Bribe Notes
Any child can be gotten through a bribe. Even Legendaries that have been done before. However, any legendary that is obtained through a bribe will have an odd marking upon it somewhere to prove that it was a bribe and not naturally aquired. The marking signifies that the kid was slightly glitched due to being created through the use of a cheat(Gameshark WOO!) thus it's data was slightly different. This will not harm the child in ANY way, but it should be noted that it will happen. Regular pokemon will NOT have this problem however. Only legendaries.

Bribe prices
Regular: 400k
Legendary: 800k
Regular Twins: 800k
Ledendary Twins: 1600k

Note: Legendary Twins can only be got through bribes like these, or VERY special events. They will never be available through Auction, or RP contests. At this time what kinds of special events they can be got through will be left unknown.

Bribe Slots Available
1: Seraphim Call(Stella)
2: Open
3: Closed

So you want me to waste stamps on you do you? Fine, I'll send you a printed uniform letter anytime there's upcoming news regarding the store. Just follow the simple format below to be added to the list. And yes, you an send her letters asking questions as well... she'll usually answer them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: So there can be more than one of each pokemon?
A: Yes, the rule on this is that the children must look, and act significantly different. Though this applies for all children, no clones thank you.

Q: If I get twins can I have both at once?
A: Yes, the only time you may have two children that are under preteen at a time is with twins. Twins may also be owned by two people should you choose.

Q: If I get a pokemon that's 'fluffy' does it have fur?
A: No, the children have SKIN. However they may have fluff brought by their characteristics. such as En eevee's tuft of fur around it's neck. Ears and tails will of course be fluffy though.

Q: I have a ditto! I get all pokemon?
A: No, the ditto is human enough that it cannot transform. It can still mimick many moves such as thunder and blizzard when in the pressence of other children, but it cannot physically change it's shape like it did in the game.

Q: Is co-owning allowed?
A: No, these shildren are RP required and two people cannot play the same child. If you have twins a different person can play each twin, but no two people can play the same child.

Q: Can my friend help me pay/buy me one?
A: Absolutely, what your friends do with their gold is up to them. Just make sure they say who it's for if they buy you one. However your friend CANNOT win you a flatsale, or contest. This is only for raffles, auction, and bribes.

Q: My child isn't a young teen yet, can I still reserve a custom?
A: Certainly, Alpha will take your order ahead of time, but you must pay for it upfront and in full. The child will be done once your current child is a young teen.

Q:Can they be weird colors?
A: Yes, Alpha has the capabilities to make that kid of yours blue skinned. However she likely won't do such things unless it's specifically requested. (Customs)

Q: How many can I have?
A: You can have one child that is below young teen stage at a time, however once a child reaches that stage you may get another. Aside from that you're allowed as many children as you can handle/obtain.

Q: ARE there any I can't have?
A: If the game they are from has not been released in the USA you cannot have that child. So pokemon from japanese released games are not permitted. However once it is released in the USA they become available.

Q: Same Sex breeding?
A: Oh come now, Alpha can make a kid from coding reality, she could if she wanted to grab DNA from the kids to make you a child from it. However there is no pregnancy, the child will be made in the lab.

Q: If I have twins do I have to do twice the requirements?
A: If you own both twins it counts as all in one. Thus you only need to do one set of requirements. If they are owned seperately both owners must fill out their own requirements.

Q: Do twins have to have the same pokemon DNA?
A: No, twins can be different pokemon. They must have something in common though. So Plusle and Minum work, Ho-oh and Lugia, but not Oddish and Charmander. Your twins CAN have the same pokemon DNA(Lugia & Lugia) if you wish.

Q: All twins are identical?
A: No, there can be fraternal, or identical twins. That's up to you. As said though, they must have something in common.

Q: The char I want as a sponsor is ...(Something other than normal human, ect.) is that ok?
A: This is set in gaia, god knows what all lives in Gaia. As long as the parent is within reason thee should be no problems. Just don't walk in with the mary-sue of the year award parent. Everyone has problems, so have the parent be somewhat realistic in that manner.

Q: Can my other breedable pet be a sponsor?
A: Yes, as long as they could physically take care of the child, and are eighteen or older by the other shops standards. As well this should be permitted by the other shop as well. I don't want to get a nasty PM about this from an angry owner. So as long as it makes sense, you can do it.

Q: Can I have my kid customized to look like a character from somewhere else? A cosplay in other words.
A: No... You're going to be DEVELOPING this character through roleplay. I don't really want you trying to do that with someone elses characters. I'm not going to do cosplays.

Q: Can I have one for free?
A: Nope, I'll offer you the kid if I want to give you a free one. I won't just give them out willy nilly to anyone though.

Q: But so and so got one for free!
A: Hmm... Maybe they're a staff member, or a good friend of mine. As in I've known them a LONG time, not a week, longer than that. I'm not going to give out kids at random for free.

More questions will be added as they are asked.
