The Uprising: Liberating the Katsu Region [OOC Thread]

[Skymin]

OH, JESUS MAN, I MIGHT AS WELL LEAVE NOW. GOD.

no lol i missed roleplaying so much. I'm making josh's thing as i write.




Name: Joshua "Josh" Summers
Age: 20
Gender: Male

Spoiler:

Appearance: Josh cut his now dirty blonde hair since we last saw him, but remains to have glasses. He wears a blue hoodie over a white t-shirt and carries around a red backpack, filled with his book on Pokémon, their moves and evolution and healing supplies, as well as general survival stuff. He has glasses over his blue eyes and wears dark grey jeans and a pair of red converse. On his left arm, under his coat, he has a large golden bracelette. He's now taller than Ashi but still looks similar to when he was 17.

Personality: Josh is happy and optimistic, looking to the happier sides of things when a situation turns glum. He's not that bright on ideas and usually has no strategy when he does anything (he leaves that to others. He's a member, not a leader) but can take charge if he really has to (although he's not that great at it). He has issues with people treating him like a child, mainly his sister, but gets on in life all the same. Currently, he likes Sar. A lot.

Background: Josh grew up in the shadow of his sister, although that never bothered him; he loved and admired his sister very much. He joined the Uprising after protecting his parents and helping to smuggle them back into Johto. After the fight at Frosty Gorge, he ventured back to his parents, who had successfully moved back to Johto. After living with them for a few months, he went back into the world to search for his sister and Sar. After half a year of travelling, he found Sar and followed her around as she moved place to place as a police officer, scared of confronting her directly in case she would dislike him. He moved into the apartment a few storeys up and despite his best efforts, was embarrassingly caught by Sar and her Pokémon after a few weeks of following her. Whilst he followed Sar, he worked as a doctor to Pokémon and people, building his skills in medicine and health. When Sar left her apartment to leave for Katsu, Josh blindly followed.

[Sweet Dreams]

Well... apparently you have 'til Monday cause our beloved tyrant - I mean, rpmaster has gone on a trip. :P

 

[Skymin]

Sweet. I have loads of time. Question: does anyone else have more than one character?

 

[Wolf in the Rain]

Oh, wow. *Cough* Uh... this is awkward. I'm away for the weekend as well, so... uh... (Sorry for not telling you this earlier) Zeph's backup-backup god leader... ^^'' *runs away*

*Shouts back* Try not to make the RP explode!

 

[Skymin]

Well sweet. OK LAST BUT NOT LEAST ALASTOR.

Name: Alastor Rigby
Age: 25
Gender: Male

Spoiler:

Appearance: Alastor's light brown hair is brushed slightly to the left, pulled up in a small ponytail and hanging slightly over his green eyes. He wears a zip-up tee, with a star on his left shoulder (like Ashi's) over a long sleeve, dark grey shirt. He keeps his supplies in a bag on his belt, with a PokéBall on the buckle. He has three-quarter denim jeans and dark combat boots.

Personality: Alastor is kind and caring, rarely getting angry or overreacting to anything. He is quite intelligent and thinks things through, speaking his wisdom to all who want to hear. He doesn't mind being hated, it never bothers him that people don't like him. When the situation calls for it, Alastor gets deadly serious and takes action with strategy and skill, always thinking of the next move.

Background: Alastor was born in Kanto in Lavender Town, born into a family of Pokémon trainers. As an only child, his parents taught him everything they knew and set him out on his adventure at the age of 10. He was an exceptional planner, but never liked to hurt his Pokémon, so slowly trained his way to the league, making it at the age of 13. He didn't win, infact, he conked out on the second round of his division.
He moved to Hoenn as a competitive battler, but not as the battler himself, but as the planner of moves, Pokémon and specifications of each Pokémon. The Pokémon that he designed himself won several competitions, although Alastor himself never got any recognition. Alastor's house turned into a sanctuary of Pokémon as many trainers took Alastor's advice, but abandoned their Pokémon, leaving them in the care of Alastor. Alastor trained them and turned them into legends and gave them off to other trainers, keeping his favourites. Soon, Alastor turned into a trader of competitive and valuable Pokémon, earning thousands of dollars through the trade.
After a few years, he sold his house to a family of Pokémon Breeders and moved to Johto, Blackthorn City. It was then he heard about the Uprising, the Katsu region and what terrible things had happened to the Pokémon over there. He then made it his duty, still earning money on the side as a competitive battler and trader on a smaller scale, but spent his money bailing Pokémon out of Katsu. He met Ashi, who delivered his Pokémon on the odd occasion, and after a few visits, told him how she had been a Katsu gym leader and joined the Uprising. Alastor became interested and the two got talking, and Alastor offered that Ashi live here with him. The two became a pair and helped eachother with their trades. Due to Ashi's requests, they began moving around between countries.
Whilst in Oreburg, Ashi told him she had received a call, stating the Uprising were planning on going back to Katsu. Alastor and Ashi quickly packed their stuff and moved again, to join the Uprising.

Pokémon:

Spoiler:

Nickname: Morrow
Breed: Marowak
Gender: Male
Moves:

• Swords Dance

• Stone Edge
• Fire Punch

Appearance: Morrow is quite a large Marowak, at least 1.5x the normal size. His bone and skull are a grey and are covered with small cracks and chips.
Personality: Morrow is loyal to Alastor and does his every whim, never cowering or backing down.
History: Morrow was born and found by Alastor in Pokémon tower. He was a smaller Cubone and used to be scared of everything. Alastor caught and took him in, and taught Morrow how to be brave. Although sometimes it's hard to see, Morrow is Alastor's most loved Pokémon.


Nickname: Ramona
Breed: Pikachu
Gender: Female
Moves:

• Thunderbolt
• Substitute
• Grass Knot
• Double Team

Appearance: Ramona is a smaller Pikachu, with maroon cheeks. Where her tail comes from her body, there is a brown star. She also has a Light Ball around her neck.
Personality: Ramona is fast, as if she teleports from place to place. Whilst not in battle, Ramona is sweet and her favourite thing is to be scratched under the chin by Alastor. She is constantly on his shoulder.
History: Ramona came to Alastor one night whilst on his journey. When he woke up the following morning, she was in front of him, staring at him, and has not left his side since.


Nickname: Tenor
Breed: Breloom
Gender: Male
Moves:

• Focus Punch

Appearance: Tenor's green is more of a teal.

[Zeph.]

[Sweet Dreams]

When I said "posted" I meant in the main thread.

"Asploded" too, meant the main thread. We blew up this thread twice, but that's just the normal state of affairs so nobody could really be alarmed. :D

Was I neglecting you? Alrighty then, you can give me a grenade and we can blow up together if you'd like.

 

[Skymin]

[Sweet Dreams]

But I neglected... Um, uh... Er... Japanese-Kanji-DeathNote-Guy-who-Likes-L's-Sign-Thing...? Um... You need a nickname, or do you already have one? Can I call you something else? :)

Anyway, I'm sure Josh can handle himself. He's a big boy.

 

[Skymin]

We could call him L. d:

No josh would CRUMBLE and CRY if sar was not there to hypothetically hold his hand through anything.
