We are a Heart Gold/Soul Silver Pokémon RP based heavily on the games, but you do not need to have played them to enjoy ZapdosZulu! We have comprehensive guides, our own original quest lines, adjusted wild encounters on every route for an array of Pokémon to catch early on, and a wonderfully supportive, open, and friendly community from many corners of the world!

Bond with your first mate as only a trainer can and trail-blaze the road to championhood! Your mission is not for the weak-willed. The obstacles are many, the challenges arduous and the Enemy in the shadows devious as ever. The regions of Johto and Kanto are but a stage for the biggest play of them all. Enjoy Pokémon from all regions!


But of course, what makes us so different from those billion-or-so Pokémon roleplaying experiences? Would you like that alphabetically or in order of importance?

A simple, player-friendly, battle system. No more calculating EXP and cringing over decimals -- just sit back and let us do it for you! Because RPing should be more about writing and less about number crunching.

Literate? Semi-Literate? Shakespearean? Bring it on. No more than a 5 day wait, or your money back guarantee!

Trainer Shop and Estate services. Generate extra income for your character through your personalized store. Those with the means may also afford land on which to build their own abode, whether it be your very own secret base, cottage, mansion or even a fort! Once constructed, enjoy treasure hunts and berry growing!

Peacenik not all your style? Do you just feel the need to do something for the evulz? Try our Rocket Mode! Where you may roleplay as a member of the nefarious Team Rocket, complete with exclusive missions and goodies! Being bad has never felt so good.

Alternatively there's always the other side of the moral compass with International Police Force missions! Get a badge, a gun, a faithful companion Growlithe, and go out to make the world a safer place.

Have a little time to help out? Once established, you may decide to be a mod and we will welcome you with open arms. Mods are also privy to our Moderators Rewards Scheme that means your hard work will never go to waste! Prizes include rare Pokémon, TMs, and other paraphernalia. Only between us now, eh?
