A Rainbow of Berries awaits!

2. PokeBerries! They’re colourful, unique and have many different effects and uses. Some
are just good in Poffles and PokeBlocks. I don’t recall ever seeing any variation on a
Berrycy or Rainbowcy use this theme so perhaps I’m the first. There will be ten
generations of Berry sims, all with their own colours and I have chosen to set this in
Dragon Valley. Let’s meet our founder.

3. Well, it appears that some tricky little Abra used Amnesia on me and I forgot to take
any pictures of my founder…so you will see them when it’s time for the first of the
Rose red generation kids, this is the spouse, Morida O’Connell. The O’Connells are one
of the founding families of Dragon Valley and constantly at odds with Mithralen family
of dragon haters.

4. Ah, there he is. My founder, Mint PokeBerry. He is a Couch Potato, Vegetarian
(required trait of Mint gen.), Family-Oriented, Green Thumb and Friendly. Faves
include Potato Truffle Torte, Pop music, and the colour Green. LTW is
Surrounded By Family so there will be five Rose gen kids. Good thing I have a few
good red PokeBerry names to use. I’ll be using most of them.

5. And since I left Morida screaming in pain, here we are waiting at the entrance to the
hospital for the first Rose gen kids. I like these windows but they are not in the catalog
to use in building. I do like the design of this world a lot, it’s quite good if you’re doing
an EPIC and have to start in medieval times…and I’m just filling the text box here
with ramblings…because waiting is boring.

6. Sunset is bad for pictures. But yep, you guessed it, Berry Baby 1 and 2 are twins. First
twin that Morida is holding is Cheri PokeBerry. She is Brave and Loves the Cold.
Faves include Cheesesteak, Digi Tunes, and the colour Aqua. A Cheri berry is used
to cure paralysis on your Pokemon.

7. And Mint followed behind with Cheri’s twin sister, Pomeg PokeBerry. She is Excitable and a
Heavy Sleeper. Faves include Veggie Burgers, Dark Wave music, and the colour Sea Foam.
A Pomeg berry has no effect on Pokemon, it’s mostly just used for a PokeBlock or Poffle
ingredient. Poffle is the Japanese name for those things you made in fourth gen, the English name
escapes me now, I watch the anime subbed.

8. And once the 2 day new baby joy wears off, Mint is already over the babies he has and
wants more. So here you go, Berry Baby 3 is on the way. Now is a good time to do the
stats card for Morida. Morida is Brave, Loves the Outdoors, a Daredevil, Good,
and Athletic. Faves include Ratatouille, Pop music, and the colour Aqua. Her LTW
is to Be a Superstar Athlete.

9. Before we continue and show the toddler twins, I wanted to put in some pictures of the rest of the
town. Turning off SP means no one will breed or advance in careers on their own so I had to do
some house jumping to get them started at least. This is one of the O’Shea brothers and his
partner Shannon MacAnna. Her sister Teagen rejected Mint quite badly when she showed up in
his welcome wagon. She had the red genetics I could have used for Generation Rose. Morida is a
red head too but not as bright a red as Teagen is.

10. This is the Finnegan household and his romantic interest Siohban Murphy. If left on,
SP turns her into the town bike so this was quite fortunate that I caught her early. He
too has the red hair genes I could have used to add to Mint’s gene pool. Siohban herself
does have the rainbow red skin slider so I hope this will give me the red genes I could
use for later on.

11. And the one household that has normal coloured genetics. John Burb and Jennifer
Pleasant. I messed up and somehow made them the Pleasants instead of the Burbs. But
no big deal, call them a modern couple where the man takes the woman’s last name
instead. I set them up with a baby then jumped to my next house.

12. I got to this house last, but still just in time. Daric Ordhen and a CAS created Sim I made, Thera
Heartley. She and her little sister Daffodil were created for…a reason I forget now but her little
sister is a fairy so now there’s fairy genes floating around Dragon Valley. This outfit is NOT CC by
the way, it comes in the Movie Stuff pack that I absolutely adore. I love that pack for doing some 19th
century Old West style Sims. Amazing clothing in that pack. The shoes are Uni Life Plantsim
boots.

13. Mint couldn’t wait to get the cribs freed up for the next baby. But since toddlers still
use them, I had to add a third crib. His required career is Science so that’s what he does,
it works well with his Green Thumb trait as well.

14. Cheri got Morida’s red hair and her pinkish rainbow skin so she’s looking pretty good for
heir. I will run a poll for them once all five are born and ready. Red unfortunately clashes
with aqua so it will be a tough balancing act to have Rose’s generation colours mesh with
the heir’s colour.

15. Pomeg on the other hand, got Mint’s green hair but normal skin colour. Grandparent
genetics from Morida no doubt. Sea Foam is a colour I just couldn’t work into the toddler
clothing. I don’t have the exact hexadecimal colour code for sea foam so I just set it as a
very pale green, nearly white.

16. However, it was time for the third baby. Morida is carrying Chople PokeBerry. Chople Loves
the Outdoors and is Good. His faves include Veggie Spaghetti, French music, and the colour
Grey. A Chople berry decreases the damage from a super effective Fighting move. So it’s quite
useful for preventing Normal and Dark type Pokemon from getting OHKO’d (one-hit knock out)
by a Lucario’s Aura Sphere (my favourite move and Fighting/Steel Pokemon).

17. A bit of a better shot of Chople, he has the red rainbow skin so we will now see if he gets
the red hair to go along with it. If he does, it’s another leg up in the heir poll race.

18. And the verdict says: He did not. Like Pomeg, he got some of the grandparent genetics
from Morida. He has brown hair like her sister Shauna does. He did get Mint’s green
eyes so two out of three may be enough? We’ll see when the heir poll begins.

19. And now since Chople is a toddler that means it’s time for the twins to age up as well.
You can see the sea foam colour I use in the crib there. And Berry Baby 4 is on the way
as well. I nuke the days off work for Morida so she doesn’t have like 14 days off work in
a row so she goes to play sports heavily pregnant.

20. Cheri has developed this weird glitch where her Energy bar doesn’t drain or fill up so she literally
doesn’t sleep anymore. I had to buy her something to keep her occupied at night. She adds Loves
to Swim to her traits list.
Cheri: Sleep paralysis is a real thing, I cure paralysis remember?
Oh. Of course. Makes sense. >_<

21. Pomeg on the other hand is just fine. She is now another one who Loves the Outdoors.
Pomeg: Pirate Pomeg of the seven Pokeseas! My life long dream is to find Manaphy and The
Crown of the Sea!
Sounds good. Finding a moving underwater fortress that only Water Pokemon can find.

22. Siobhan makes it known that Berry Baby 4 is coming. Morida had to leave in the middle
of practice for this.
Siobhan: I had $30 riding on this game!

23. And here he is, Berry Baby 4. Tamato PokeBerry. Tamato is a Loner and also Loves
the Outdoors. His faves include PB&J, Western music, and the colour Irish Green.
A Tamato berry has no effect on Pokemon and is according to the anime, hot as hell if
you bite it.

24. Can always count on Ash/Satoshi to do the stupidest of things like biting a Tamato
berry…

25. One more baby born, one more grows up. This time it’s Chople. Which means soon
enough the baby joy will wear off again and Berry Baby 5 will come along.

26. So rarely do I catch the CAS trait animations. This time I did. Chople is now Eco-
Friendly so he gets butterflies in CAS around his head.
Chople: Butterfrees are my friends!

27. Morida: This is the last one right?
Hopefully. Just don’t have twins and for once I’ll actually only get FIVE
babies instead of six, seven, or eight…but knowing my luck…unlikely.

28. One more baby means one more toddler, Tamato has the green hair and pale pink skin.
Meaning, he too has a good chance to retain the founder’s genetics. He actually looks
like a tomato now that I think about it, green on top, red below.

29. Pomeg: Where did this park come from?
Cheri: A gift from Arceus?
Chople: Does it matter? Outdoors! Yay!

30. Morida: Finally! The last one! Now I can finally finish my career goal!
Yes, that would be good. One more thing to check off the generation’s list.

31. And finally, Berry Baby 5 is a girl. Razz PokeBerry is yet ANOTHER Loves the Outdoors
type, but this time she’s also a Virtuoso. Her faves include Hamburgers, Western music, and
the colour Red. A Razz berry doesn’t have any effect on Pokemon in every generation before eight.
In generation eight there are Silver and Gold Razz berries that make wild Pokemon easier to catch.

32. On my travels through town, house jumping, I came across this doggo. This is Bellaboosh
Ordhen. Daric adopted her and when I opened the house she was nearly an elder dog. With SP
turned off, the town won’t breed or advance in careers but they WILL adopt animals and the
animals will breed. I’ve gotten notifications several times of households having kittens or puppies.

33. And now, finally, the last Berry Baby is a toddler. Razz got the green skin from Mint
and grandparent genetics from Morida. Not red hair though. She is the only one who
got Mint’s skin tone.

34. Ugh, this Generations thing is soo annoying. All the kids are doing this, especially Pomeg here.
Pomeg: Queen Pomeg is speaking!
I thought you wanted to be a pirate and find Manaphy?
Pomeg: I’m Pirate QUEEN Pomeg and I will find Manaphy, the Prince of the Sea! Yarr!

35. And now Tamato will be joining them. He also adds Snob to his traits list. Interesting…
Tamato: At least it wasn’t Hot-Headed.
True, true. That would be far, far too ironic considering.

36. Tamato: This park is fun! How did I not know about it until now?
Cheri: You were too young.
Now as I wait for the teening, I begin to think it’s only five this time…what a relief.

37. Razz grows up and adds Perfectionist to her list.
Razz: It’s important to maintain order.
Indeed…like only having five Berry Babies, that’s orderly.

38. Taking Razz along to Clover Park and while playing in the sand box, she unearths a Caveman
gnome. Nice. The family’s first gnome that DOESN’T reproduce on its own. The Berry Babies got
an age reset because of my house skipping and I didn’t want to just jump from babies to teens with
nothing in between. I gave Mint and Morida an age reset of eight days too, resetting all the kids
back eight days made Chople the same age as Pomeg and Cheri, the first two Berry Baby twins.

39. The teening begins with Pomeg in the garden as they were all trying to moth Caveman
gnome to kick him. Tamato picked up the Generations thing of presiding over royal
court.

40. Pirate Queen Pomeg is now a Night Owl.
Pomeg: So I can see the Crown of the Sea easier, it glows.
I see.

41. Then it was Cheri’s turn. Morida is Shoo Fleeing because she can’t kick the gnome.
Poor Caveman gnome, everyone wants to beat on him. 

42. And Cheri becomes Avant Garde so her way of expressing that is to get the aqua
coloured lightning bolt makeup from the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s Stuff pack. My other
favourite one being that I was born in the 80’s and raised in the 90’s, but wish I had
been born in the 70’s to see Star Wars in all its glory, before Disney killed it…*ahem*.

43. And next, for the Berry Baby round, it’s the pseudo-triplet Chople’s turn. Pomeg got
bored and wandered off, Morida left for the phone. Because oh, no we aren’t done with
birthdays yet…

44. Chople is now Shy. Poor kid, with such outgoing and enthusiastic siblings he doesn’t want to
stand out.
Chople: I like being a background character.
I’m sure you do.

45. Next and last for now, is Tamato. Still wearing the stupid Generations thing in the
small kitchen.
Mint: One more to go!

46. Tamato now has a Photographer’s Eye. A photography snob, this is his calling.
Which means…I have to travel to Egypt to get him a camera…and hopefully not bring
back any Sandiles from Egypt.
Tamato: I am an artist who works with film.

47. And here you see, the Clefaries are coming for Mint. I thought, this is fine, nothing
ever comes from a Sims 3 abduction. I’m going to make it through this with only FIVE
this time…right?

48. NO, OF COURSE NOT!! CAN’T HAVE ONLY FIVE!! OH NO!!
Mint: This makes me happy.
NOT ME, YOU’RE ONE KID AWAY FROM LTW HAPPINESS!!

49. OF ALL THE FAILED ABDUCTIONS IN THE PAST!! NOT SINCE MICHAEL
HAVE I EVER HAD AN ALIEN BABY!! EXPLOOUDDDD!!
Ani-Mei has evolved into Exploud!

50. So here she is, the little cretin. Occa PokeBerry is the LAST baby because the house is full now.
She is Excitable and Insane (oh joy an insane alien). Her faves include Veggie Cheesesteak,
Beach Party music, and the colour Irish Green. Occa berries reduce the damage from a super
effective Fire move. So she’ll be putting out the fires Tamato causes in people who bite a Tamato
berry…like Ash. She will not be in the heir poll because I will NEVER get rid of the alien genes and
it will ruin the whole Berrycy that way. I could have sent her off the home world but knowing
Mint, he’d find a way to fill the house up again, so this is heading off that problem before it begins.

51. For Miss Miserie, because I know you’ll read this…you lost something. I did not ask
you to send your NOODLING glitch to me okay? So kindly take it back please.  Razz
seems to have picked it up. She’s upgrading the doorbell by the way. Something I didn’t
know kids could do.

52. I mean the poor kid was already born with the Bimple Pox glitch, now she gets the
noodling glitch and the goblin face too? Well that’s one way to stake your claim to fame
for the heir poll right?

53. And yes, after the insane alien Occa was born, it was Razz’s birthday as well. And
Mint is one day from adulthood when he pops out a sixth Berry Baby and fulfills his
LTW. At least Razz will be freed from the Bimple Pox glitch now.

54. Razz is now Friendly. And yet, still looks like a goblin.
Razz: What will I do to make my case for heir now?
Don’t worry, you’re still Glitch Girl. That could work in your favour right?

55. Finally! Mint has fulfilled his LTW! Now it’s all—
Mint: Heh heh, Midlife Crisis go!

56. And now that’s all folks. Longer than I wanted, and fighting Windows lag all the
way through, first chapter is done. I hate those damn updates…they ruin everything
I’m trying to do.
