Welcome to Gaia! ::

So, I want to be a hybrid.

Welcome, you've come to the right place! Here is where you'll seek hybridization, be it legendary or non-legendary. Don't mind the place, we need to keep it sterile for plenty of reasons. But there are a few caveats to keep in mind.

Wait, caveats?

Yes. For starters a 'hybrid' is someone who is a mix of human and Pokemon DNA. Hybridization can be a tricky process, however. To start, you'll need to have the Pokemon you wish to be a hybrid of, though for legendary hybrids, it'll be a bit different. I'll get into that later, but without the right DNA, it's a bit awkward to really make someone a hybrid. Also, it's not a process for the weak of heart, as it can't be reversed. So make sure you're committed beforehand. [Note: If you wish to have your character become a hybrid in their backstory or in a more 'mystical' way that's fine too, just speak with an admin first about your idea.]

Oh, and some Pokemon won't be allowed for hybridization, though this is always subject to change at any time. So far, these ones are:

Non-Legendary Pokemon: Ditto, Smeargle

Legendary Pokemon: Mewtwo, Mew, Kyogre, Groudon, Dialga, Palkia, Azelf, Uxie, Mesprit, Arceus, Reshiram, Zekrom, Tornadus, Thundurus, Landorus, Kyurem, Genesect, Xerneas, Yveltal, Zygarde (all forms), Hoopa, Tapu Koko, Tapu Lele, Tapu Bulu, Tapu Fini, Type: Null, Silvally, ALL Ultra Beasts (793-800 in National Dex), Zacian, Zamazenta, Eternatus.

Anything else I should know? And what's this about legendary hybrids?

Legendary hybrids are a bit harder to go about, as even seeing a legendary is no small feat. You'll want to check out the Restricted Library before continuing. Finished reading and situated? Great! Let's go on.

After you've become a hybrid, be it upon joining the guild or through the Snagem Research Facility, you won't be able to use moves right away. For each Master Mission you undergo after hybridization, you'll be able to learn and use a single move. You can only do Master Missions of the same type as what you're a hybrid off, or if you're dual-typed, you can go through one of the sets you'd be able to do; for example, a Vaporeon hybrid can only do Water Master Missions, while a Xatu hybrid can do Psychic or Flying Master Missions.

In any case, there are ten Master Missions in a given set, and you can learn ten moves in total, but that's not all. After undergoing and completing a set, you'll have the option of undergoing a Grand Master Mission, the end results of which can vary; for hybrids that can Mega Evolve and have the appropriate Mega Stone, they will be able to following completion. Likewise, completing the Grand Master Mission will also allow hybrids to use Z-Moves so long as they have access to them and have the relevant Z-Crystals.

That was really long winded.

Sorry. That's the most of it, though. To start, post here with your character requesting to be hybridized or, if you're already situated, to see about Master Missions. Us Admins will get in touch with you from there to see about how we go through these missions with you!

"Can I help you?" GRAY spoke up over the intercom as a monitor flicked on across the room in front of Kaya.

"Really now? You know the procedure is irreversible." GRAY said sternly to Kaya. "But if you're really that willing to go through with it then we'll need a little bit of DNA from...whatever you plan on transforming yourself into."

"That will do." GRAY remarked as two large metal cylinders across the room opened up with a hiss, their metallic doors disappearing into the machines. "You enter the right chamber and your Klefki the left, then we may begin. Once you enter, remember, there is no turning back."

As soon as the doors closed bright lights would flick on the inside and the machines would begin to hum violently. Those on the inside might think that they were getting to explode with how they roared and rattled. The Klefki in its own tank would feel nothing more than a warm tingly sensation, and maybe begin to get tired. Kaya on the other hand, would find himself in mind numbing pain as his genetic make up began to completely change. His skin would become hard like still, whatever body hair he had falling off in the process. While his limbs largely stayed the same, except for maybe a height decrease, his head might start altering its self. The entire process didn't take long but to Kaya it might feel like ages of pain he was going through.

Once the process was finished the doors would open up with a hiss to let those in side out. Klefki was probably tired but for the most part okay. Kaya on the other hand would be completely exhausted and in pain for awhile, might even find it kind of difficult to move his limbs with his new steel coat that is now his skin, it would take some getting used it.

"Hybridization complete. Step out and sit down for awhile. I'll have you transported to the med lab to be examined by the physician to make sure the hybridization process was successful. Unless you feel lucky that is." GRAY commented.

Sprinting into the room with tears streaming from her eyes, Leslie stared up to where GRAY would be monitoring before letting out as threatening a growl as a nine year old could muster. Cracking open the sole Pokeball in her hand and staring at her Mawile before nodding towards the Pokemon, already moving forward towards the machine that would likely be the catalyst for this process. "Open this thing up. I don't care what risk or whatever is associated with it, I want to be a hybrid." Leslie snarled out, staring down the camera in an attempt to evoke a response.

"I just need to do this. I need to get a little vengeance for...someone. I'd rather not talk about, so just get this thing booted up, da**it!" Leslie cursed, already attempting to manually force the machine to begin setting up the process. Looking to the camera for the room again, the little girl felt a wave of sadness cross her before she finally opened another Pokeball and let her Porygon out to interact with GRAY. "Please.....I need to do this....I don't want to be made obsolete. You understand that, right?" The solemn voice echoed out as Leslie ceased her actions, unsure what to do now.
