Mika
October 1st, 2006, 09:25 PM
EDIT: Somehow when I posted the rp starter, it killed my setting paragraph. ^-^;;;; Gimme a second to fish it up. -feels stupid- ^^;;;;
Mika's profile is up
Whoo hoo! after four hours of writing, it's done~
First off, before I start the description rules and sign up sheets…
To Showgan Rpers who may be interested in joining:
Yes I do reference Maxie and her relationship with Mika in this roleplay desc and plotline. (Not just once, several times) No, it has nothing to do with your plotline Alter. I am not taking Maxie away from you all and I did not take a thing from your plotline. I know better than that. :3 This is just something Charon’s been after me to do for a really really really long time and out of lack of better things to do outside marching band, I gave into her pleas (I’m also a really big sucker) so blame any confusion on her. :3 Not me.
Quick Info
This Rp is heavily based on the Caberallo (I can’t spell this stupid word, gomen ne) Yellow Manga series when it comes to the “Viridian Power” both Yellow and Lance posess. If you don’t understand it, read the final two books in the series, they have the scans in the manga section I believe, and you’ll get it. It’s not that hard to understand and it's described repeatedly. You can't miss it.
This is also my first rp I’ve lead here. Please bear with the poorly organized description. ^^; I’m learnin.
Drache Memoirs
Time Stamp: 21:00
[Recording] Blackthorn, executive officer of the Dragon Training and Breeding department and one of the three Special Ops recording
The reconnaissance mission went as well as we‘d hoped. After meeting with our contacts in Pallet and Pewter it seems the Elite Four really has no clue as to where our HQ is located, aside from the fact it’s on this side of Saffron. They’re simply running around like those police idiots, bsing they know where we are when they couldn’t find us in a crowd of twenty.
This is excellent news considering how defenseless we are right now with half the grunt squads in Hoenn, repairing Magma and Aqua’s damage to the Black Market sector. When those morons decided to revive something even Giovanni wouldn’t touch, they obviously weren’t thinking about the effects it would have on our men in area. Thanks to all the publicity Lance and his G-Men groupies got it, the police and the Stone Family have cracked down hard enough on us that we’ve all but lost our influence in Hoenn.
As for my fellow Executives, Zion is somewhere in Johto answering a distress signal he didn‘t want to answer as it‘s most likely a branch of the local police thinking they can remove us from one of our territories and Fujimi is somewhere near Mossdeep, keeping an eye on his girl friend as usual. Moron doesn’t understand that it’s simply a stupid idea to date the daughter of Steven Stone in the first place.
As for me?
Tomorrow’s the second-year anniversary of the day the tsunami destroyed an entire continent. Alarayne was removed from the history books two years ago tomorrow, it was dubbed a forbidden discussion in Rocket life because of my role in the happenings and it was also the day I lost the first non-rocket friends I’d ever managed to make.
Just recently, I found out one of those friends, Luna, is officially dead. They found her body on the beach of Slateport a week after everything happened and were able to use some new technology to prove who she was after a year or so of pondering. As for the second… as for Maxie…No one knows. They never found any trace of her… nor did Giovanni let them try any longer than a month. Couldn’t let the world know about…
Shoot I’m getting off track.
We’ve got bigger concerns than my friggen memories.
We were told last week that tomorrow, we’re getting the new batch of recruits. We, the Executives in the Special Ops department. Apparently, they’re not your average grunts, these are already full fledged trainers Giovanni somehow managed to catch in his net. They’re being divided up between me, Koji and Raven. We’ve been told our old sections are being formed up again with these idiotic recruits as the “fighting force of the next generation” that through these recruits, Rocket will take its place on both the capitalist charts and the Black Charts.
This is what he feeds the recruits
This is not what we, the SO’s, know to be true. To us, this can only mean one thing. We’ve been around long enough now to know Giovanni never shoves freshies into our hands. He gives them to people slightly higher than grunts as, according to him, we’re too good for that. However. if something imminent is approaching and that imminent something could run through our ever-growing grunt force like a law mower to an overgrown lawn, it would only seem natural he would give them to the best to get them into shape more quickly.
He also said we might be getting kids from the lab.
With Magma and Aqua gone… The only thing I can think of that fits this description is the G-Men. If that is correct… that can only mean Lance is coming. They are preparing to take us down, to take me out, before any more continents are destroyed.
But… it wasn’t my fault…
No... I'm the reason Gullwee...
Didn’t I try to make it stop…?
I couldn’t ignore its voice
Its pained voice.
“we want to return to the ocean.”
“Send us back to the ocean.”
How could I deny those agonized cries?
The land was being destroyed, taken up by humans for development. The humans weren’t even aware of the dragons living in the cavern benethe their towns, the cavern hidden just under the surface of the planet.
They simply wanted… release
I don’t remember releasing the seal
I don’t remember anything beyond those final days.
When did they take over?
I don’t remember…
I don’t remember anything…
[End Recording]
Quick Synopsis of Plot
It has been two years since Alarayne’s destruction. Most people do not even know it ever existed. Those that do say a shadow from the high ranks of Team Rocket was involved in the continent’s destruction, that the lives lost in the inevitable tsunami caused by the seal’s release was all because this shadow released the seal, even though there were those that tried to stop this shadow from doing so. The shadow is called a murderous monster, a creature of the night with mystical powers one would only hear of in picture books. School Teachers call it a fairy tale, that the whole notion of a continent existing between Hoenn and Kanto is nonsense and how oh so many scientists have studied the waters and found nothing to support such preposterous stories.
But those in the high ranks of Team Rocket know it existed. They know one of their own caused its downfall.
Speaking of the program, dubbed Landfall, is grounds for immediate dismisal and or imprisonment. Desperate to protect his gem from harm, Giovanni has kept these rules enforced to prevent any shame and unwanted attention from falling on Mika, his adopted daughter and the heiress to the Rocket name.
But the seal was released
And recent rumours state it was not the only one
Knowing this would cause further harm, Lance, the Former Leader of the Elite Four and the current leader of the Pokemon G-Men, has ordered Team Rocket to be dismantled and the head three executives, along with Giovanni himself and the head of the laboratory department, to be brought in alive. He stated to the press that the horrors of Rocket would soon come to an end, and the people of the world would soon be able to live in peace.
With war between the two superpowers seeming immient, Giovanni has ordered the reconstruction of Team Drache, Makurayami and Oblivion, to give the company and the organization a fighting chance at survival. Unable to sacrafice his grunt manpower and he knew full and well no amount of time would make them into his prized three, he stepped into the public eye, hiring new recruits from three places: The Lab Productions, the Award Circle, and the Formers pool. Rumour, however, has it, that there are traitors among the freshies, spies for the G-Men….
Meanwhile, voices continue to haunt those sensitive to them
The Seals are calling
Will they be answered?
The quickie synopsis
:3 And the simple version!
You have been called on to save TR from complete destruction. Little do you know, there is a trip planned to the sight of the Kanto seal in which your team, Drache, will be instructed to release the seal which is guarded by a G-Men Unit. However, this information is not yet known. :3 Giovanni's a little sneak and likes to keep his plans secret til the last available moment.
Settings
As of right now, the setting, which will be described in more detail once I get the first post or so started, is mostly going to consist of the Team Rocket Building (Completely underground mind you) and the Kanto Region. Later, more settings might be added, it depends on interest levels. Have an idea for a mission; post in an OOC or through pms. :3 Your ideas are important to me~
You Are?
You are one of three people:
A New TR Trainer
You are accomplished in some mannor, (However, you are NOT an Elite Four Winner. A collection of Gym badges, winning small tournaments and/or Pokemon Contest Wins are examples of your accomplishments. Nothing big or I stab you e-e. -pets spork sweetly-), and jumped at the chance to skip the hard poor-paying grunt levels for a chance at the big leagues
A Lab Offspring
Expiramented on, you have been transformed from human, to super human. Mimicing the powers of the Viridian Bloodline, you are able to communicate with Pokemon through telepathic communications and your reaction, be it in battles or scenariors, is twice that of a human. However, if you chose to be one of these people, please note your character needs to be unstable. You have little to no memory of life outside the lab, nothing outside of rituals and schedules etc.
Please note
I will be EXTREMELY picky on these character sheets. I do. Not. Tolerate. Powerplaying and/or Godmoding. The reason Mika is of the bloodline is to prove she has a weakness. If you think you’re going to control pokemon and what not, think again.
A Former’s Child
You are a gym leader’s child or a child of a former TR executive. As for your character, have fun. You can be reluctant or joyful, I don’t care, just go into detail under your history section
And… if you so wish…
G-Men Spy
A spy for the government, you came into the TR program as an accomplished trainer but your true objective is to lead the G-Men to the TR base, to take and arrest your leader (Mika) and turn her over without being caught
Being caught would result in imprisonment… if not worse… (I don’t kill characters tho. Against TOS. -nodnod-)
Please Note I need one of these to start. :3
FYI, every recruit is under Mika's command. This does not mean I powerplay, it just means my character is superior to your character IC Rank alone. x3 She's your semapi in the training room but your friend in the cafeteria.
And now it’s time for everybody’s favorite section!
Rules
(Taken from Alter Ego’s AD Roleplay with Corrections)
(I’ll take ‘em down if you want me to Alter, they’re just perfect. o_o)
1. Follow all standard RP section rules (Self-explanatory).
2. Just to stress this; no powerplaying, godmodding, bunnying, or character control of any kind! If I see someone's character doing as much as raising an eyebrow without the creator's consent (Please note the word consent) then the person responsible will be warned, once, and if the violation is repeated then that person will be kicked out of the RP.
3. Bunnying. If you’re going to be gone and your friend is in the rp and can play them IC, then ask YOUR FRIEND to take over said character. I don’t want to bunny anybody (Aside from Charon because I /know/ her extremely well) unless I absolutely have to.
4. No posting beneath four lines. I'm serious about this one, if you can't manage four lines of coherent english then please don't sign up, I'm looking for people who can RP in proper detail, because short, flat, and emotionless posts just ruin the mood of an RP and have the tendancy to infuriate me.
THIS IS NOT FOUR LINES
Sally followed Charles closely til nighttime. Then it got cold so she turned and said to ty “warm me up” and the charizard moved to warm her up. Then she yawned and said “the sky is so beautiful when it is cold like this and i like it lots“ turning towards Charles she flashed him her killer smile
Yes it /has/ four lines, but it looks like something my sister wrote in third grade when she was learning how to type paragraphs. If this is all you can type (Chat speak, which is u = you r = are etc, is included in this) go find a different rp. You will be rejected without remorse.
5. Mind your spelling. If you have trouble spelling, don't just blame it on english not being your first language (It isn‘t Alter Ego‘s and his English is better than mine (and I am native speaker person) nor does he ever complain about it being difficult) but I will accept the minor mistake here and there. I misspell a lot and if you can tolerate me, I can tolerate you. ;3
6. If I tell you to edit a post, you will edit it or I will consider that post as a not-there post. =3 And I will ignore it. I don’t do it a lot, I like it when people add to my plotline, just not accesively.
7. Read the rules and read the plot. Clash with me and I stab you. With this spork. That doesn’t like you.
8. NO POKEMORPHS

My Profile
Name: Mika Blackthorn
Age:15
Gender: Female
Class: TR Executive (Blackthorn Gym Heiress NOT current gym leader)
Speciality: Judo, Aikido, Computer Hacking and Dragon Type Pokemon
Appearance: Her elegent emerald green hair and her shimmery amber-like eyes are by far the highlight of her appearence. It flows softly against her strangely pale skin and rests just short of her pelivc bone. It is not however, worn down unless formal occasions require it to be so. Her hair is almost always up in a high ponytail on the top of her head, a few strands falling out and framing her young looking face. Though she has spent many a year in the sun, aside from her well built body, one couldn't tell that she'd ever been out of the house. Her skin is a light cream with a gentle blush against her cheeks.
Her body is very well built, there isn't even the slightest hint of fat on her stomach, arms, thighs, anywhere though she constantly states that there is as an excuse to train her body more than she probably should. Her arms and legs especially are well defined; she's not the pansy she knows she appears to be.
Clothing: it trully depends on what she's doing. When training, she can often be found wearing only a pair of gym shorts and a standard solid colored t-shirt, clothing that wears well and can take alot of sweat and damage before crumbling. When she's actually doing her job however, her attire is much different. Instead of the shorts and t-shirt, she's known to wear a pair of black shorts with a sleeveless dark green trenchcoat that's zipper zips down instead of up. Her hands are almost always, even when training, covering in a pair of metal plated fingerless gloves. As one would figure, she's not shabby with a needle and tends ot update every single artical of clothing she owns to make it more moveable and to add the emblem of whatever group she belongs to the clothing in some sort of way or another that stands out. However, if the need came for formal attire and wearing Kimono was rather unplausable, she might be seen in a very plain but elegant spagetti string dress. This though, is quite rare for her. She prefers to wear Kimono in such occasions but it isn't always exactly plausable.
For shoes, she wears a pair of mid-shin high black almost combat like boots with excellent grip on quite simply any terrian stray of ice. For training, she'll wear simple flat soled tennis shoes. She carries a tan messanger bag that is slung over her shoulder
Personality: Mika's ideal conversation is as follows
"Hey"
"Hey"
"...Fight?"
"...whatever"
Unfortunately for her, most conversations don't follow along these lines. She absolutely hates talking to people more than is needed and cannot, absolutely cannot, stand hyper active obnoxious little girls who just don't understand the meaning of the phrase, "Shut the hell up!" She's almost always percieved as a shady character and she honestly wouldn't have it any other way. She dislikes people in general but understands quite clearly that she has to deal with people and work with them even though her first thought is to always go about it solo. She doesn't, however, tolerate any bad talk about the people at Blackthorn Gym, specifically when it relates to Lance's takeover. That will get the instigator punched in the mouth.
When she is around people she trusts, which is a very small almost nonexistant number, she tends to open up more and is less prone to silence around them.
History: Coming tomorow, my computer ate it. -.-;
Other: As she is the bastard child of Lance and Clair, she has inheirited some of the viridian bloodline. However, she is almost never able to control it beyond a certian point and it often consumes her, causing the three mental breaks she has had in her young troubled past.
Pokémon: Ages used are the human equivilant. You do not need to provde this; I chose to do so because it explains my pokemon's character more. ^^; The reason mine are all fully evolved is because she's an executive. You can have a few at the final stages... if they can be beaten.
http://pokemonelite2000.com/pkrs118.gif
Name: Kureno
Age: around 15
Specie: Flygon
Personality: Kureno, Kuro for short, thinks he's the tough cookie in Mika's party. When out of his pokeball, he takes the "gangsta" pose against the wall and often gives the "whatcha lookin at me for" apperence, which is almost always hillarious because he simply does not look as intimidating as he tries. He is, however, one of Mika's more powerful types and hardly ever leaves her party aside from when he's being handed off to be healed and what not.
History: Kureno was hatched from an egg Mika bought off a vendor in Slateport
http://pokemonelite2000.com/pkrs122.gif
Name: Tari
Age: around 19
Specie: Altaria
Personality: Tari is a very shy pokemon who thinks she can hide behind a bush and not be seen. Very young for her age, she is often considered immature but she is honestly just naive. Once in battle, her mood is unpredicatble and Mika often has problems keeping her in check. She has a strange obsession with shiny objects and is drawn to them like the opisite ends of a magnet. These items often end up in her cloudy wings and are a royal pain to de-tangle.
History: Tari was saved from the bush of doom by Mika during her Hoenn escapade.
http://pokemonelite2000.com/pkfrlg149.png
Name: Tina
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Specie: Dragonite
Personality: Tina is the substitute mother for Mika. She snaps at the child for a stupid move, coddles her when she's sad, protects her from danger, she's like a paid body guard. She was Mika's first pokemon, a pokemon given to her back home when she turned four. She has seen Mika through all her experiences and is understanding of all her little quirks
History: She was Mika's first pokemon, a pokemon given to her back home when she turned four, a gift from her father, Tina has not once left Mika's party and her trainer feels naked with the familiar ball around her neck.
http://pokemonelite2000.com/pkrs186.gif
Name: Mizu
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Specie:Kingdra
Personality: Mizu, like Tina, is very level headed. He's a very calm pokemon which is in sharp contrast to the general stereo type of a Kingdra. He likes to sleep in the sun, swim, fuss over Mika and battle. Other than that, he doesn't really care about much. He can be a bit of a prankster if he's around Kari too long though, Mika often has to keep them on seperate sides of her belt to prevent them from plotting something ebil and malicious (Like spraying Koji with a blast of water before delivering one very nasty thunder bolt just to see his hair spike without gel)
History: Mizu was caught via a fishing rod and almost knocked poor Mika out of her boat when he was caught as, at the time, he didn't like the idea of being in a pokeball for the rest of his days.
http://pokemonelite2000.com/pkrs080.gif
Name: Kari
Age: 9
Gender: Female
Specie: a very evil little Plusle
Personality: Kari is the poster child for manipulating pokemon. She can be the most adorable little thing one moment and then, a second later, you notice you're without a wallet and whatever ketchup you have on you. She sneaks her way into your heart though and is known to crack even the most rock-solid of trainers every now and then.
History: Kari snuck into Mika's bag one afternoon and fell asleep in it. She's been with Mika ever since
----
Yes I know she's late in. << She had stuff to do so HA.
Name: Gullwee
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Class: Mika’s old friend
Speciality: Handcrafts, Bird Pokémon communication, handling avian creatures.
Appearance: She stands at 1,70m and is quite well built. Not to say she’s an athlete, who she is far from, but she definitely couldn’t be defined as “thick” or “chubby”. Let’s just say that if you compared her form to one of those social popular girls you’d see around high-school, you’d get pretty close. Her skin colour is a very light brown, coloured naturally due to sun exposure. Her hair has a chestnut brown colour, and it usually hangs loosely, flowing down her back until it reaches her chest. Occasionally, if the winds blow harshly, she’ll tie her hair up in a ponytail. Additionally she has blue eyes that seem to sparkle with light and life whenever she is in a happy mood.
Clothing: Everyday clothing for Gullwee varies. It depends on the weather, really. If it’s raining, she dresses accordingly, choosing wind and waterproof attire of any colour and shape she can get her hands on. However, if it’s not raining, and there are no chilly winds, she can often be seen wearing something entirely different. Nowadays, her favourite clothes are a white sweater and a trendy brown jacket. She is also very fond of dark blue jeans.
Gullwee has never had any need for formal clothing. None have ever called her to anything important, so she has nothing suitable for special events. However, she’s found out that clean skin and a comb does wonders. And to finish it all off, she usually wears a handcrafted necklace with a crystal, feather-shaped pendant.
Shoe-wise she isn’t very unique either. For herself, she’s chosen a pair of running shoes with a good grip on most surfaces. And that’s it.
Personality: Admittedly, Gullwee is a bit timid. Okay, so she’s more than that. She’s very timid. She’s not to be mistaken for a coward, though, as she can be quite defensive in the right kind of situations. Nonetheless, the girl faces difficulties if someone rejects her. She will turn anywhere for comfort and guidance if that happens, and usually forge bonds with the one who helped her rebuild her self esteem.
To make up for that, though, she’s quite sociable. When holding tight reins on her fear and timidity, she can tell great epic tales or funny stories, capturing her audience. So to say, she’d make a great spokesperson, despite being insecure as heck.
Though, admitting to her timidity? Heck no. She’s not openly doing so, except to her birds, which care about her regardless of that. And that is all there is… or most of it, anyway.
History: Gullwee has always liked birds. She was born in Mossdeep City and spent her first six years there, living with her family. At the age of six, she was sent to Fortree City Gym, where she was taught directly under Winona personally. The girl learned all there was to know about avians – how to tame them, how to feed and properly care for their health and well-being, and how to see the potential of each individual bird at an early stage. Additionally, Winona taught her a wide variety of battle strategies solely for avian use, seeing great potential in what was quickly becoming her favourite pupil.
At this time, everything looked bright for Gullwee. She was happy, kept close contact with her family, and had the opportunity to show the world her burning passion for all things feathery each and every day. Yet when she was ten and a half, a trainer came on a visit, carrying a Pidgey in their arms. The bird was mistreated and not very healthy. This was the first of many birds that were delivered to them in this condition. Naturally, Winona became concerned. Gullwee was also infuriated, and determined to investigate, she snuck out of Fortree one night, setting out to find out of this mystery. Eventually, she stumbled across Kir the Spearow. They became friends under dramatic circumstances and have travelled together ever since.
Other:
Pokémon: Gullwee has a small team consisting of three Pokémon she is very fond of.
Name: Kir
Age: 5
Gender: Male
Specie: Spearow
Personality: Very protective, determined and squawky when agitated. He is able to survive in battles far longer than he should, due to his determination. Hardly anyone have seen his softer side, where he is cuddly, affectionate and gentle.
History: Kir was born outside Fortree City, raised to be a flock leader by his parents, Siren and Kai. He was then found by someone, and offered as a gift to Gullwee.
Name: Falcon
Age: Two and half a decades. Possibly more. What’s sure, though, is that she’s experienced a lot in her lifetime and gained quite a few valuable experiences.
Gender: Female
Specie: Pidgeot
Personality: Silent and calm, she is one to judge the situation toroughly before she acts. Also, she is quite a hen, protecting the ones close to her as if they were hatchlings. She is never-tiring in flight.
History: Falcon's place of birth and her heritage is unknown, and for great parts of her life, it was unknown to her that she had a sibling. She was born as a Pidgey, she lived a fairly normal life until she got caught by a rookie trainer named Cassidy, whom she stayed with for great parts of her life, under the name Strawberry. Eventually released, she took residence in Fortree City, where she met Gullwee one day. They bonded closely, and the bird was even re-named. However, recently, on one of their journies, Gullwee and Falcon soon found out that she had a brother, who was raised as a Military bird. His name was Sarge.
She found great joy in that discovery, and despite the fact that the two live separately, Falcon seems content with her situation, still following Gullwee around.
Things to note about that bird, is that she was never caught in a Pokéball while serving under Gullwee. She has always flown freely, and takes pride in the fact. Also, she has a remarkable silver badge attached to her chestfeathers. This was a gift from Winona.
Name: Amber
Age: 2
Gender: Female
Specie: Growlithe
Personality: Typical puppy. Fiery and hyper. Cuddly, loving a treat, and very loyal.
History: Falcon found her one day and wanted her for dinner, and Gullwee profoundly denied the Pidgeot the pleasure of eating the poor thing. They’ve stuck together ever since.

Mika's profile is up
Whoo hoo! after four hours of writing, it's done~
First off, before I start the description rules and sign up sheets…
To Showgan Rpers who may be interested in joining:
Yes I do reference Maxie and her relationship with Mika in this roleplay desc and plotline. (Not just once, several times) No, it has nothing to do with your plotline Alter. I am not taking Maxie away from you all and I did not take a thing from your plotline. I know better than that. :3 This is just something Charon’s been after me to do for a really really really long time and out of lack of better things to do outside marching band, I gave into her pleas (I’m also a really big sucker) so blame any confusion on her. :3 Not me.
Quick Info
This Rp is heavily based on the Caberallo (I can’t spell this stupid word, gomen ne) Yellow Manga series when it comes to the “Viridian Power” both Yellow and Lance posess. If you don’t understand it, read the final two books in the series, they have the scans in the manga section I believe, and you’ll get it. It’s not that hard to understand and it's described repeatedly. You can't miss it.
This is also my first rp I’ve lead here. Please bear with the poorly organized description. ^^; I’m learnin.
Drache Memoirs
Time Stamp: 21:00
[Recording] Blackthorn, executive officer of the Dragon Training and Breeding department and one of the three Special Ops recording
The reconnaissance mission went as well as we‘d hoped. After meeting with our contacts in Pallet and Pewter it seems the Elite Four really has no clue as to where our HQ is located, aside from the fact it’s on this side of Saffron. They’re simply running around like those police idiots, bsing they know where we are when they couldn’t find us in a crowd of twenty.
This is excellent news considering how defenseless we are right now with half the grunt squads in Hoenn, repairing Magma and Aqua’s damage to the Black Market sector. When those morons decided to revive something even Giovanni wouldn’t touch, they obviously weren’t thinking about the effects it would have on our men in area. Thanks to all the publicity Lance and his G-Men groupies got it, the police and the Stone Family have cracked down hard enough on us that we’ve all but lost our influence in Hoenn.
As for my fellow Executives, Zion is somewhere in Johto answering a distress signal he didn‘t want to answer as it‘s most likely a branch of the local police thinking they can remove us from one of our territories and Fujimi is somewhere near Mossdeep, keeping an eye on his girl friend as usual. Moron doesn’t understand that it’s simply a stupid idea to date the daughter of Steven Stone in the first place.
As for me?
Tomorrow’s the second-year anniversary of the day the tsunami destroyed an entire continent. Alarayne was removed from the history books two years ago tomorrow, it was dubbed a forbidden discussion in Rocket life because of my role in the happenings and it was also the day I lost the first non-rocket friends I’d ever managed to make.
Just recently, I found out one of those friends, Luna, is officially dead. They found her body on the beach of Slateport a week after everything happened and were able to use some new technology to prove who she was after a year or so of pondering. As for the second… as for Maxie…No one knows. They never found any trace of her… nor did Giovanni let them try any longer than a month. Couldn’t let the world know about…
Shoot I’m getting off track.
We’ve got bigger concerns than my friggen memories.
We were told last week that tomorrow, we’re getting the new batch of recruits. We, the Executives in the Special Ops department. Apparently, they’re not your average grunts, these are already full fledged trainers Giovanni somehow managed to catch in his net. They’re being divided up between me, Koji and Raven. We’ve been told our old sections are being formed up again with these idiotic recruits as the “fighting force of the next generation” that through these recruits, Rocket will take its place on both the capitalist charts and the Black Charts.
This is what he feeds the recruits
This is not what we, the SO’s, know to be true. To us, this can only mean one thing. We’ve been around long enough now to know Giovanni never shoves freshies into our hands. He gives them to people slightly higher than grunts as, according to him, we’re too good for that. However. if something imminent is approaching and that imminent something could run through our ever-growing grunt force like a law mower to an overgrown lawn, it would only seem natural he would give them to the best to get them into shape more quickly.
He also said we might be getting kids from the lab.
With Magma and Aqua gone… The only thing I can think of that fits this description is the G-Men. If that is correct… that can only mean Lance is coming. They are preparing to take us down, to take me out, before any more continents are destroyed.
But… it wasn’t my fault…
No... I'm the reason Gullwee...
Didn’t I try to make it stop…?
I couldn’t ignore its voice
Its pained voice.
“we want to return to the ocean.”
“Send us back to the ocean.”
How could I deny those agonized cries?
The land was being destroyed, taken up by humans for development. The humans weren’t even aware of the dragons living in the cavern benethe their towns, the cavern hidden just under the surface of the planet.
They simply wanted… release
I don’t remember releasing the seal
I don’t remember anything beyond those final days.
When did they take over?
I don’t remember…
I don’t remember anything…
[End Recording]
Quick Synopsis of Plot
It has been two years since Alarayne’s destruction. Most people do not even know it ever existed. Those that do say a shadow from the high ranks of Team Rocket was involved in the continent’s destruction, that the lives lost in the inevitable tsunami caused by the seal’s release was all because this shadow released the seal, even though there were those that tried to stop this shadow from doing so. The shadow is called a murderous monster, a creature of the night with mystical powers one would only hear of in picture books. School Teachers call it a fairy tale, that the whole notion of a continent existing between Hoenn and Kanto is nonsense and how oh so many scientists have studied the waters and found nothing to support such preposterous stories.
But those in the high ranks of Team Rocket know it existed. They know one of their own caused its downfall.
Speaking of the program, dubbed Landfall, is grounds for immediate dismisal and or imprisonment. Desperate to protect his gem from harm, Giovanni has kept these rules enforced to prevent any shame and unwanted attention from falling on Mika, his adopted daughter and the heiress to the Rocket name.
But the seal was released
And recent rumours state it was not the only one
Knowing this would cause further harm, Lance, the Former Leader of the Elite Four and the current leader of the Pokemon G-Men, has ordered Team Rocket to be dismantled and the head three executives, along with Giovanni himself and the head of the laboratory department, to be brought in alive. He stated to the press that the horrors of Rocket would soon come to an end, and the people of the world would soon be able to live in peace.
With war between the two superpowers seeming immient, Giovanni has ordered the reconstruction of Team Drache, Makurayami and Oblivion, to give the company and the organization a fighting chance at survival. Unable to sacrafice his grunt manpower and he knew full and well no amount of time would make them into his prized three, he stepped into the public eye, hiring new recruits from three places: The Lab Productions, the Award Circle, and the Formers pool. Rumour, however, has it, that there are traitors among the freshies, spies for the G-Men….
Meanwhile, voices continue to haunt those sensitive to them
The Seals are calling
Will they be answered?
The quickie synopsis
:3 And the simple version!
You have been called on to save TR from complete destruction. Little do you know, there is a trip planned to the sight of the Kanto seal in which your team, Drache, will be instructed to release the seal which is guarded by a G-Men Unit. However, this information is not yet known. :3 Giovanni's a little sneak and likes to keep his plans secret til the last available moment.
Settings
As of right now, the setting, which will be described in more detail once I get the first post or so started, is mostly going to consist of the Team Rocket Building (Completely underground mind you) and the Kanto Region. Later, more settings might be added, it depends on interest levels. Have an idea for a mission; post in an OOC or through pms. :3 Your ideas are important to me~
You Are?
You are one of three people:
A New TR Trainer
You are accomplished in some mannor, (However, you are NOT an Elite Four Winner. A collection of Gym badges, winning small tournaments and/or Pokemon Contest Wins are examples of your accomplishments. Nothing big or I stab you e-e. -pets spork sweetly-), and jumped at the chance to skip the hard poor-paying grunt levels for a chance at the big leagues
A Lab Offspring
Expiramented on, you have been transformed from human, to super human. Mimicing the powers of the Viridian Bloodline, you are able to communicate with Pokemon through telepathic communications and your reaction, be it in battles or scenariors, is twice that of a human. However, if you chose to be one of these people, please note your character needs to be unstable. You have little to no memory of life outside the lab, nothing outside of rituals and schedules etc.
Please note
I will be EXTREMELY picky on these character sheets. I do. Not. Tolerate. Powerplaying and/or Godmoding. The reason Mika is of the bloodline is to prove she has a weakness. If you think you’re going to control pokemon and what not, think again.
A Former’s Child
You are a gym leader’s child or a child of a former TR executive. As for your character, have fun. You can be reluctant or joyful, I don’t care, just go into detail under your history section
And… if you so wish…
G-Men Spy
A spy for the government, you came into the TR program as an accomplished trainer but your true objective is to lead the G-Men to the TR base, to take and arrest your leader (Mika) and turn her over without being caught
Being caught would result in imprisonment… if not worse… (I don’t kill characters tho. Against TOS. -nodnod-)
Please Note I need one of these to start. :3
FYI, every recruit is under Mika's command. This does not mean I powerplay, it just means my character is superior to your character IC Rank alone. x3 She's your semapi in the training room but your friend in the cafeteria.
And now it’s time for everybody’s favorite section!
Rules
(Taken from Alter Ego’s AD Roleplay with Corrections)
(I’ll take ‘em down if you want me to Alter, they’re just perfect. o_o)
1. Follow all standard RP section rules (Self-explanatory).
2. Just to stress this; no powerplaying, godmodding, bunnying, or character control of any kind! If I see someone's character doing as much as raising an eyebrow without the creator's consent (Please note the word consent) then the person responsible will be warned, once, and if the violation is repeated then that person will be kicked out of the RP.
3. Bunnying. If you’re going to be gone and your friend is in the rp and can play them IC, then ask YOUR FRIEND to take over said character. I don’t want to bunny anybody (Aside from Charon because I /know/ her extremely well) unless I absolutely have to.
4. No posting beneath four lines. I'm serious about this one, if you can't manage four lines of coherent english then please don't sign up, I'm looking for people who can RP in proper detail, because short, flat, and emotionless posts just ruin the mood of an RP and have the tendancy to infuriate me.
THIS IS NOT FOUR LINES
Sally followed Charles closely til nighttime. Then it got cold so she turned and said to ty “warm me up” and the charizard moved to warm her up. Then she yawned and said “the sky is so beautiful when it is cold like this and i like it lots“ turning towards Charles she flashed him her killer smile
Yes it /has/ four lines, but it looks like something my sister wrote in third grade when she was learning how to type paragraphs. If this is all you can type (Chat speak, which is u = you r = are etc, is included in this) go find a different rp. You will be rejected without remorse.
5. Mind your spelling. If you have trouble spelling, don't just blame it on english not being your first language (It isn‘t Alter Ego‘s and his English is better than mine (and I am native speaker person) nor does he ever complain about it being difficult) but I will accept the minor mistake here and there. I misspell a lot and if you can tolerate me, I can tolerate you. ;3
6. If I tell you to edit a post, you will edit it or I will consider that post as a not-there post. =3 And I will ignore it. I don’t do it a lot, I like it when people add to my plotline, just not accesively.
7. Read the rules and read the plot. Clash with me and I stab you. With this spork. That doesn’t like you.
8. NO POKEMORPHS

My Profile
Name: Mika Blackthorn
Age:15
Gender: Female
Class: TR Executive (Blackthorn Gym Heiress NOT current gym leader)
Speciality: Judo, Aikido, Computer Hacking and Dragon Type Pokemon
Appearance: Her elegent emerald green hair and her shimmery amber-like eyes are by far the highlight of her appearence. It flows softly against her strangely pale skin and rests just short of her pelivc bone. It is not however, worn down unless formal occasions require it to be so. Her hair is almost always up in a high ponytail on the top of her head, a few strands falling out and framing her young looking face. Though she has spent many a year in the sun, aside from her well built body, one couldn't tell that she'd ever been out of the house. Her skin is a light cream with a gentle blush against her cheeks.
Her body is very well built, there isn't even the slightest hint of fat on her stomach, arms, thighs, anywhere though she constantly states that there is as an excuse to train her body more than she probably should. Her arms and legs especially are well defined; she's not the pansy she knows she appears to be.
Clothing: it trully depends on what she's doing. When training, she can often be found wearing only a pair of gym shorts and a standard solid colored t-shirt, clothing that wears well and can take alot of sweat and damage before crumbling. When she's actually doing her job however, her attire is much different. Instead of the shorts and t-shirt, she's known to wear a pair of black shorts with a sleeveless dark green trenchcoat that's zipper zips down instead of up. Her hands are almost always, even when training, covering in a pair of metal plated fingerless gloves. As one would figure, she's not shabby with a needle and tends ot update every single artical of clothing she owns to make it more moveable and to add the emblem of whatever group she belongs to the clothing in some sort of way or another that stands out. However, if the need came for formal attire and wearing Kimono was rather unplausable, she might be seen in a very plain but elegant spagetti string dress. This though, is quite rare for her. She prefers to wear Kimono in such occasions but it isn't always exactly plausable.
For shoes, she wears a pair of mid-shin high black almost combat like boots with excellent grip on quite simply any terrian stray of ice. For training, she'll wear simple flat soled tennis shoes. She carries a tan messanger bag that is slung over her shoulder
Personality: Mika's ideal conversation is as follows
"Hey"
"Hey"
"...Fight?"
"...whatever"
Unfortunately for her, most conversations don't follow along these lines. She absolutely hates talking to people more than is needed and cannot, absolutely cannot, stand hyper active obnoxious little girls who just don't understand the meaning of the phrase, "Shut the hell up!" She's almost always percieved as a shady character and she honestly wouldn't have it any other way. She dislikes people in general but understands quite clearly that she has to deal with people and work with them even though her first thought is to always go about it solo. She doesn't, however, tolerate any bad talk about the people at Blackthorn Gym, specifically when it relates to Lance's takeover. That will get the instigator punched in the mouth.
When she is around people she trusts, which is a very small almost nonexistant number, she tends to open up more and is less prone to silence around them.
History: Coming tomorow, my computer ate it. -.-;
Other: As she is the bastard child of Lance and Clair, she has inheirited some of the viridian bloodline. However, she is almost never able to control it beyond a certian point and it often consumes her, causing the three mental breaks she has had in her young troubled past.
Pokémon: Ages used are the human equivilant. You do not need to provde this; I chose to do so because it explains my pokemon's character more. ^^; The reason mine are all fully evolved is because she's an executive. You can have a few at the final stages... if they can be beaten.

Name: Kureno
Age: around 15
Specie: Flygon
Personality: Kureno, Kuro for short, thinks he's the tough cookie in Mika's party. When out of his pokeball, he takes the "gangsta" pose against the wall and often gives the "whatcha lookin at me for" apperence, which is almost always hillarious because he simply does not look as intimidating as he tries. He is, however, one of Mika's more powerful types and hardly ever leaves her party aside from when he's being handed off to be healed and what not.
History: Kureno was hatched from an egg Mika bought off a vendor in Slateport
http://pokemonelite2000.com/pkrs122.gif
Name: Tari
Age: around 19
Specie: Altaria
Personality: Tari is a very shy pokemon who thinks she can hide behind a bush and not be seen. Very young for her age, she is often considered immature but she is honestly just naive. Once in battle, her mood is unpredicatble and Mika often has problems keeping her in check. She has a strange obsession with shiny objects and is drawn to them like the opisite ends of a magnet. These items often end up in her cloudy wings and are a royal pain to de-tangle.
History: Tari was saved from the bush of doom by Mika during her Hoenn escapade.
http://pokemonelite2000.com/pkfrlg149.png
Name: Tina
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Specie: Dragonite
Personality: Tina is the substitute mother for Mika. She snaps at the child for a stupid move, coddles her when she's sad, protects her from danger, she's like a paid body guard. She was Mika's first pokemon, a pokemon given to her back home when she turned four. She has seen Mika through all her experiences and is understanding of all her little quirks
History: She was Mika's first pokemon, a pokemon given to her back home when she turned four, a gift from her father, Tina has not once left Mika's party and her trainer feels naked with the familiar ball around her neck.
http://pokemonelite2000.com/pkrs186.gif
Name: Mizu
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Specie:Kingdra
Personality: Mizu, like Tina, is very level headed. He's a very calm pokemon which is in sharp contrast to the general stereo type of a Kingdra. He likes to sleep in the sun, swim, fuss over Mika and battle. Other than that, he doesn't really care about much. He can be a bit of a prankster if he's around Kari too long though, Mika often has to keep them on seperate sides of her belt to prevent them from plotting something ebil and malicious (Like spraying Koji with a blast of water before delivering one very nasty thunder bolt just to see his hair spike without gel)
History: Mizu was caught via a fishing rod and almost knocked poor Mika out of her boat when he was caught as, at the time, he didn't like the idea of being in a pokeball for the rest of his days.
http://pokemonelite2000.com/pkrs080.gif
Name: Kari
Age: 9
Gender: Female
Specie: a very evil little Plusle
Personality: Kari is the poster child for manipulating pokemon. She can be the most adorable little thing one moment and then, a second later, you notice you're without a wallet and whatever ketchup you have on you. She sneaks her way into your heart though and is known to crack even the most rock-solid of trainers every now and then.
History: Kari snuck into Mika's bag one afternoon and fell asleep in it. She's been with Mika ever since
----
Yes I know she's late in. << She had stuff to do so HA.
Name: Gullwee
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Class: Mika’s old friend
Speciality: Handcrafts, Bird Pokémon communication, handling avian creatures.
Appearance: She stands at 1,70m and is quite well built. Not to say she’s an athlete, who she is far from, but she definitely couldn’t be defined as “thick” or “chubby”. Let’s just say that if you compared her form to one of those social popular girls you’d see around high-school, you’d get pretty close. Her skin colour is a very light brown, coloured naturally due to sun exposure. Her hair has a chestnut brown colour, and it usually hangs loosely, flowing down her back until it reaches her chest. Occasionally, if the winds blow harshly, she’ll tie her hair up in a ponytail. Additionally she has blue eyes that seem to sparkle with light and life whenever she is in a happy mood.
Clothing: Everyday clothing for Gullwee varies. It depends on the weather, really. If it’s raining, she dresses accordingly, choosing wind and waterproof attire of any colour and shape she can get her hands on. However, if it’s not raining, and there are no chilly winds, she can often be seen wearing something entirely different. Nowadays, her favourite clothes are a white sweater and a trendy brown jacket. She is also very fond of dark blue jeans.
Gullwee has never had any need for formal clothing. None have ever called her to anything important, so she has nothing suitable for special events. However, she’s found out that clean skin and a comb does wonders. And to finish it all off, she usually wears a handcrafted necklace with a crystal, feather-shaped pendant.
Shoe-wise she isn’t very unique either. For herself, she’s chosen a pair of running shoes with a good grip on most surfaces. And that’s it.
Personality: Admittedly, Gullwee is a bit timid. Okay, so she’s more than that. She’s very timid. She’s not to be mistaken for a coward, though, as she can be quite defensive in the right kind of situations. Nonetheless, the girl faces difficulties if someone rejects her. She will turn anywhere for comfort and guidance if that happens, and usually forge bonds with the one who helped her rebuild her self esteem.
To make up for that, though, she’s quite sociable. When holding tight reins on her fear and timidity, she can tell great epic tales or funny stories, capturing her audience. So to say, she’d make a great spokesperson, despite being insecure as heck.
Though, admitting to her timidity? Heck no. She’s not openly doing so, except to her birds, which care about her regardless of that. And that is all there is… or most of it, anyway.
History: Gullwee has always liked birds. She was born in Mossdeep City and spent her first six years there, living with her family. At the age of six, she was sent to Fortree City Gym, where she was taught directly under Winona personally. The girl learned all there was to know about avians – how to tame them, how to feed and properly care for their health and well-being, and how to see the potential of each individual bird at an early stage. Additionally, Winona taught her a wide variety of battle strategies solely for avian use, seeing great potential in what was quickly becoming her favourite pupil.
At this time, everything looked bright for Gullwee. She was happy, kept close contact with her family, and had the opportunity to show the world her burning passion for all things feathery each and every day. Yet when she was ten and a half, a trainer came on a visit, carrying a Pidgey in their arms. The bird was mistreated and not very healthy. This was the first of many birds that were delivered to them in this condition. Naturally, Winona became concerned. Gullwee was also infuriated, and determined to investigate, she snuck out of Fortree one night, setting out to find out of this mystery. Eventually, she stumbled across Kir the Spearow. They became friends under dramatic circumstances and have travelled together ever since.
Other:
Pokémon: Gullwee has a small team consisting of three Pokémon she is very fond of.
Name: Kir
Age: 5
Gender: Male
Specie: Spearow
Personality: Very protective, determined and squawky when agitated. He is able to survive in battles far longer than he should, due to his determination. Hardly anyone have seen his softer side, where he is cuddly, affectionate and gentle.
History: Kir was born outside Fortree City, raised to be a flock leader by his parents, Siren and Kai. He was then found by someone, and offered as a gift to Gullwee.
Name: Falcon
Age: Two and half a decades. Possibly more. What’s sure, though, is that she’s experienced a lot in her lifetime and gained quite a few valuable experiences.
Gender: Female
Specie: Pidgeot
Personality: Silent and calm, she is one to judge the situation toroughly before she acts. Also, she is quite a hen, protecting the ones close to her as if they were hatchlings. She is never-tiring in flight.
History: Falcon's place of birth and her heritage is unknown, and for great parts of her life, it was unknown to her that she had a sibling. She was born as a Pidgey, she lived a fairly normal life until she got caught by a rookie trainer named Cassidy, whom she stayed with for great parts of her life, under the name Strawberry. Eventually released, she took residence in Fortree City, where she met Gullwee one day. They bonded closely, and the bird was even re-named. However, recently, on one of their journies, Gullwee and Falcon soon found out that she had a brother, who was raised as a Military bird. His name was Sarge.
She found great joy in that discovery, and despite the fact that the two live separately, Falcon seems content with her situation, still following Gullwee around.
Things to note about that bird, is that she was never caught in a Pokéball while serving under Gullwee. She has always flown freely, and takes pride in the fact. Also, she has a remarkable silver badge attached to her chestfeathers. This was a gift from Winona.
Name: Amber
Age: 2
Gender: Female
Specie: Growlithe
Personality: Typical puppy. Fiery and hyper. Cuddly, loving a treat, and very loyal.
History: Falcon found her one day and wanted her for dinner, and Gullwee profoundly denied the Pidgeot the pleasure of eating the poor thing. They’ve stuck together ever since.
