Technology

Technology in the Pokemon Radio world is roughly similar to that of the real world in the modern day. There are, however, a few advances in-game and in-MUCK that the real world are not able to make yet.

First and most obvious is the ability to turn matter into both energy and data. Pokeballs and their various modifications all have a large commonality. The primary thing they all share is the ability to transform very specific DNA codings (AKA Pokemon) into energy form for easy transportation and storage. They also have the ability to be transferred near instantly from one place to another. The Pokedex works in tandem with Pokeballs, the former able to analyze the contents of the latter, and keeping track of how many Pokeballs the trainer carries, and the Pokeballs needn't even connect to the Pokedex at all.

However, despite these advances, there are huge limitations. And, for the most part, technology in the MUCK are similar to what we have today. Since roads in the Pokemon world tend to be rough, vehicles are limited to mostly bicycles and motorbikes. Cars, though far from unheard of, are somewhat rare. And for those wanting to make their own technology, bear all of this in mind: technology is advanced compared to what we have today, but only by a few decades. Anything of significant advancement not listed here must be approved by a staffer OOC before being used IC. Player characters are not permitted to own cars at this time.
