 /____\         Surrender now, and let's do what's right.    

Who are we?

We are farmers, social workers, mechanics, chefs, authors, manufacturers, miners, charities, parents, children, friends, the homeless, the unemployed. We are both the huddled masses and those willing to help, brought together to make the world a better place.

What do we want?

Peace, so the infrastructure we build isn't destroyed. Unity, so we can get everyone on the same page with what needs to be done. Friendship, forming robust support networks to help each other. Pokemon are people too, and deserve our respect and love. Teamwork and a sense of community are crucial.

How can you help?

Team Terra needs donations. We need food. Clothes. Toys. Help us deliver meals to hungry people. Help us find jobs for the unemployed. We have a lot of community service goals to meet. Route maintenance, city beautification, constructing low-cost homes, getting sick people the care they need. And we're willing to do what's right even if it doesn't match up perfectly with what's legal. People are more important than that. Join with us, and you can save people.

What's in it for you?

What do you need? We have a community of sharing and friendship, and we try to pair up people who have kind hearts with those they can really help. We have a campground where Bug, Rock, Grass, and Ground types are willing to help us with our work. We can take you in and give you a place to live, food to eat. You also get a boosted AP reward for participating in our GM-run plots, and for running those plots as a GM. You also get Green Points. Terra Missions are the only source of Green Points.

What are Green Points?

Green Points are compatible with any pokemon that is Bug, Rock, Grass, or Ground. They can be used to buy any move off that pokemon's dex entry. They can be used to buy an IV. And they can be used to buy Dream World abilities.

Are teams exclusive?

Not in the least. Help everyone you can, wherever they are. Each of the other teams provides their options and resources, and we want people to be able to access as much as they can, and apply it where they can do best. Try to convince them to work with us. We understand about keeping a unified front though, so if you need to wear another team's uniform for a while, that's fine, but we won't be able to go easy on you until you come back home.

What do I have to do to join?

First, you'll have to compile a list of your skills and weaknesses, and give a little bit of detail as to their origins and extents. Our GMs use weaknesses to fuel other team's RP against you, and your strengths to assign you plots against them. If you don't list it, you might not get to use it, so if you can cook, if you can communicate in different ways or languages, if you can build things, let us know so we can put you where we need you. We also pair people based on those skills to cover each other and share common interests. Second, you'll have to make a team, and be ready to fight in doubles battles, so you'll want to spend some time discussing roles and strategy with your teammates. When you're in uniform you can only use pokemon that have a Bug, Rock, Grass, or Ground typing. So say... Scizor, Garchomp, Tyranitar, Aerodactyl, Tropius, Volcarona. We run sand, so keep that in mind and don't ruin your partner's weather.
