Adding my hat to the list of potentials, TBA for character, though. Need to go through the thread to see what we've got and reread over the OP before I make a decision. Additionally, here is a Discord link to an (un)official chat for this game. For those unfamiliar, Discord is a 100% free service with no downloads required. It's kinda like mIRC, only more up to date with today's visuals and User Interface.

I'm kinda interested in this game, and I already have a character mechanically built (Working on the Pokemon still), but I'm curious about how the game will actually play. Is it a dungeon crawl-style game? Or is it mission based? Or are we just following plot points to our destination, like a quest?

I'm still working on my character application although her sheet should be mostly done, just have to actually write down her fluff. It might take me today and tomorrow to finish her.

Posting interest. Currently juggling between three ideas: one, a Wuxia-based Miasmic/Martial Artist who have mastered the Wudu(五毒, lit. 'Five Poisons', which would be his five Pokemon) and decided to try out his newly gained power against the Rain Dance Team and help an old friend at the same time. Two, a Grey Sage(Hex Maniac/Sage), Touched by the Tao Trio, who seeks to restore balance to the region. Mechanically, going hardcore buffer/debuffer with this one. Three, more of a story-based character and an antihero, an ex-Rain Dance Team, friend-then-enemy-then-back-to-friend(Captain America and Winter Soldier) of the Elite Four who decided to go rogue after some incidents involving his family. Thinking more of a Punisher vibe here but definitely need to brainstorm on the detail.
Here's hoping muse strikes me when I wake up from my sleep tonight.

Sorry for double posting but questions:
1. How much for a master weapon?
2. How many inheritance moves allowed per Pokemon? How many total? Any limitation on them?

Sorry for double posting but questions: 1. How much for a master weapon? 2. How many inheritance moves allowed per Pokemon? How many total? Any limitation on them? I can't answer #2 fully, but #1 was asked by me on the first page. Egg Moves are by the Playtest Rules as far as restrictions go, but the GM has not stated how many Egg/Inheritance Moves we can have on our 'mons. I would err on the side of caution and go with just 1 Egg Move for your Inheritance List (which could be something it got early, or later on). Hopefully the copy+pasted quotes worked...

Ah darn me, I thought "Fine Weapon" is the second best.

Ah darn me, I thought "Fine Weapon" is the second best. There are 3 classifications of weapons in PTU: Crude, Simple, and Fine. The book describes them as such: On the mechanical side of things, Crude only modifies Struggle attacks (granting the +DB on Struggle). Simple allows for a single Weapon Move at Adept Combat; while Fine is the best, granting a second Move at Master Combat.

Yeah, I get that, was just mistaken on the classification words, which I double checked after your previous post. Thanks for the info nonetheless.
Decided to edit this in so I don't double post again. So I am done with the first draft of my character, Touched by Giratina, the Raging Demon, Rex Meuser. Going with the darker, Punisher-ish character since I think it's not frequent I can play something dark - no dark type pun intended - in PTU. The appearance, goal, and personality segments are underdeveloped. I decided to just put it out here for now as I am running out of time before this closes. I am more than willing to expand on them and change up on details if I am picked. Also, I see many people are going for Isabella, which I am too, but I am very interested in developing a closer relationship to Daniel than Isabella in the actual game. They are kind of similar on the anger issues and Rex can totally understand the loss of family. I also have not given my Pokemon squad any egg move, I figure I can readjust the moves and such later on. The current team are: Primeape - The most stereotypically-appropriate Pokemon for a Berserker. Hawlucha - Anti-air. Poliwrath - S.Atk Tanker. Scrafty - Bruiser and dark type fits well with the Touched by Giratina. Audino - A story-based Pokemon, I can switch it out to another Fighting Pokemon if you want. It is starter of his dead sister so he keeps it with him. Oh, the character has an Audinite necklace, which he keep to remember his sister, which is strictly a plot devicde and will not be used for Mega purpose in the game(nor Rex has the bond with Audino to perform a Mega Evolution). If you don't like this idea I am fine changing it up to a different necklace.

Yes, I checked his profile myself. He said he was having net issues last week, perhaps they haven't yet been resolved?
