Please Reserve me, ill have my SU up as soon as i can complete it. remember Inner Demon?
Edit:
Here is the first part of my SU.
Sign Up: Trainer
Name: Iago Antonov
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Appearance: Iago has soft, short, fair blonde hair that sits on the top of his hair and just brushes his eyebrows. His eyes are a cold, ice blue, and at times can seem like icebergs. His skin tone is a nice tanned white. He is muscular due to his intensive training that he does himself, and tries to wear clothes that hide his muscles. He measures in at five foot eleven and weighs something like eighty kilograms.
His common wardrobe consists of Black cargo pants, military style boots that are brown, a white t-shirt with grey stripes and faded Russian letters. He wears a brown and white ski jacket. He usually wears stainless steel dog tags around his neck and a silver analogue watch of his left wrist. He has a pointed piercing below his bottom lip. He has a rugged appearance, short spikes of hair around his chin and long sideburns. He has a large tattoo of a phoenix on his chest as well as two lines of Japanese text on either shoulder.
Personality:
Spoiler:
Iago is a quiet person. From an early age he only spoke when he was asked to or when he thought that it was absolutely necessary. To this day, he hardly even talks, opting instead to stay silent and observe everything else that is happening as well as paying attention to what everyone else has to say. Iago's studies stretched to languages and currently he can speak Russian, Japanese and English.
Like an Iceberg, where a large percent of it is beneath the surface, Iago too keeps much of himself below the surface, keeping very little visible. Much the same as one of the quotes on his shoulders, "I am not what I am", Iago prefers to keep his real, true self hidden behind a façade; often contradicting much of what he is. Whilst his inward appearance and personality stay constant, his outward appearance and personality are subject to change, mostly in the form of aliases in which he has many. Iago prefers to keep other people at a safe distance from himself; this comes in the form of an alias and also by refusing to create bonds with people. The only bond he has made to date has been with Ptera, his trusty and faithful Aerodactyl.
As a reserved person, Anton hates showing outward emotions and feelings, opting instead to scowl, even on the slightest occasion that he is happy. Anton always feels that and outward show of emotions was a weakness, a design flaw that made him an easy picking for others so as a defensive measure, he adopted a façade in the form of the ever present scowl that makes him seem dangerous to approach. This reservation further increased his anti-social behaviour. In the first instance of becoming anti-social, Anton would steer clear of many people, opting to sit and be by himself than interact and socialize with people in school and on the odd occasion that he would venture into public places. After he found and rescued Terror the Aerodactyl, his anti-social behaviour began to manifest in more distancing behaviour.
Before Terror came into Anton's life, he was scared to be anywhere high, preferring to have both feet firmly on the ground. This Acrophobia soon dissipated when Anton found Terror and since then Anton can often be seen climbing high trees, quite high up till the branches were too thin to climb and he will often sit up there for hours, feeling the wind gently rock the tree and watching Terror do acrobatic tricks in the air. On more than one occasion, Anton has climbed onto the roofs of buildings but feels less secure than in a tree.
Another way was the release of his pent up anger, mostly originating from his envy of much of society. Prior to finding Terror, Anton expressed his envy and anger in the form of fights in school, whether caused by him or not. These fights would never last more than one day and never out of the confines of school. However, once he found Terror, he became more actively searching for a fight, finding children from his school outside of school hours and hurting them both physically and emotionally. Psychologists often said that this was Anton's was of expressing his feelings, a way that Anton could express the hurt and pain he had been through to the outer world and that this needed to be done in a more constructive way.
Background:
Spoiler:
Iago was an orphan since the age of seven when his parent's mansion in Blackburn City was burnt to the ground by a mysterious fire. It occurred early in the morning, but details of the fire are still sketchy, no one knew how it happened and much blame was put on him since he was the only to survive. At the time of the fire, he had been sleeping in his bedroom downstairs. By the time he awoke to the fire, much of the house was on fire including the part of the house where his parents slept.
Since he was too young to handle to money from his parent's wealth, he was shoved into adoptive care and was quickly picked up by a vet couple who lived in Goldenrod City. He moved to Goldenrod City with them and there he attended school.
At the age of eight he began to teach himself karate from books that he loaned from the city library and soaked this knowledge in as quick as he had done at school and soon he was defending himself against the bullies, coming home with less bruises. One day Iago was caught by a teacher and hauled to the principal's office and threatened with expulsion for fighting. When his adoptive parents found up they were deeply saddened but also understanding and felt he needed disciplines that books did not offer and signed him up to the nearest karate club which fatefully happened to teach Bujinkan Ninjutsu.
When he was ten years old, Iago confronted a group a children throwing stones at a birds nest in a park near his adoptive parents home. When he saw a young Aerodactyl fall out of the nest he immediately rushed in, saving the Aerodactyl through fighting and although he managed to fight them all off, injuring several, he also incurred cuts and bruises from some of the other kids. He rushed Aerodactyl home to his adoptive parents who luckily enough were vets and aided them in nursing the Aerodactly back to health. When he tried to release it back to its nest, the Aerodactyl clung to him and so with consent from his adoptive parents, kept it as his Pokémon.
At the age of fourteen, Iago went on a school trip to Kanto, three years after the Rocket Administration had been repelled from there and immediately fell in love with the place. Then he vowed that he would make sure that he would live here. Since the age of eight, Iago was constantly picked on by bullies but by now, his karate training had widened into Wado Kai, and Shotokan styles and he became stronger than many of the bullies at his school. It was at this age that Iago picked up training harder, going to martial arts classes five times a week and exercising muscle development training seven nights a week.
At the age of sixteen, Iago legally was allowed to receive the money left by his parents. After paying back his adoptive parents for taking care of him all those years, he left school and moved to Celadon City where he enrolled himself in another school there. Iago brought the apartment he has now and began focussing on his studies. Here he managed to find the same style martial arts clubs, however his Bujinkan Ninjutsu classes are in Fuschia City. He bagan working in the department store only a couple of meters from where he lived, and once finishing school at eighteen, became a full time employee. After leaving school, Iago also heard of rare Pokémon trading going on in the Celadon Underground and from there managed to rescue Pitch, the female Houdour.
Present day: Iago had never heard about the Katsu Region much less the upheaval that happened three years ago. However it was not until a survivor from 'The Uprising' group came to Kanto and explained to him what happened those three years ago. Iago always knew he was needed for something big, and maybe this was it. He knew that he had to help the organisation in restoring the Katsu Region back to the way it was, and promptly signed up to The Uprising, becoming a member. He waits eagerly in his apartment in Celadon City for his call to aid, his call to the Katsu Region.
Additional Information: Iago does a lot of martial arts; he is a black belt in Bujinkan Ninjutsu, Brown belt in both Wado Kai and Shotokan Karate.

Spoiler:
"When you are deprived of one or more senses, the others will kick in, become sharper, more refined…."
Information was everywhere these days, and the extents of the human body were still being found even by today's modern scientists. "We know very little about the human body, it is capable of extraordinary feats and we have the potential to be able to do this one day…" It was funny how that little bit of information had kept stuck in his mind amongst the clutter of everything else.
When Anton had lain down on the seat, he had not taken notice of the boy sitting across from him; he was just a person, no one in particular. Why should he communicate with those who have so much more than him? Even thinking about it just made his blood boil. Stupid people, they know nothing of the terrors of life. But he had not fallen into a meditative faux sleep to think about those he envied, no, he had deprived himself of sight, just another sense. In doing so though, his other senses had begun to kick in and already he could feel his hearing become stronger, sharper more refined to make up for the loss of his sight. He also kept his mouth shut, depriving yet another sense and again felt his hearing become clearer as he began the search for information.
"People leak much more information than they think; it's good to know what others know." Of course this was spying but who cared? They certainly didn't know that he was doing it and soon he had a picture of certain people he would pay close attention to.
"Two girls at the back, girl and guy up front, maybe more but they are definites."
There was not much to go on, stupid people talking about their friends, school and home life, just listening to them created a whirlwind of rage within Anton's stomach but then the two girls at the back became talking, it was very interesting indeed.
So for nigh on a couple of minutes he listened to each talk, noting down and memorizing what they said. "A ghost and a psychic Pokémon, eh? Very interesting."
However much of the end of the conversation was lost when the intercom overhead squawked:
""Attention all passengers, please buckle up! The train will be departing from the station in a matter of minutes."
Leaving Anton's ears ringing. Then only a minute after the announcement the boy that Anton had not paid particular attention to spoke up:
"Excuse me, but is owning a Pokemon is a requirement to enter this school?"
The boy had been fine when he left Anton alone but with his hearing disrupted and nothing else intriguing going on, he decided that this may be a chance to do some of that 'interaction' thingy that his latest parents had tried teaching him. And so Anton got up, end looked at the boy across from him. Nothing seemed to jump out about him but in ways he did seem unhappy.
"Ask someone else." He tried, this seemed an alright reply.
Sign Up: Pokémon
Spoiler:
Nickname: Ptera
Breed: Aerodactyl
Gender: Male
Moves:
- Ancient Power - Flamethrower
- Stone Edge - Earthquake
Appearance: Just your typical-looking Aerodactyl.
Personality: Ptera shares much the same personality as with Iago due to them pretty much growing up together. Ptera has developed a strong bond with Iago since they met and is strongly loyal to him. Ptera and Iago get along quite well together due to their near similar personalities however Ptera is more timid and vigilant (paranoid) than Iago. When going away from the apartment, Ptera usually sits on Iago's shoulders, keeping vigilant watch.
History: Iago found Ptera when he was about twelve, when he saw a group of kids throwing stones at a birds' nest in a tree at one of the local parks. Iago saw Ptera fall out of the tree and land on the ground to which the kids began to poke at him with sticks. Iago came to Ptera's rescue, beating up several of the kids but also being beaten up badly along the way.
Nickname: Pitch
Breed: Houndour
Gender: Female
Moves:
- Crunch - Thunder Fang
- Flamethrower - Heat Wave
Appearance: Just your typical-looking Houndour.
Personality: Pitch is quite a bit different to Ptera and Iago but similar in many ways. Due to beatings in the past, she is very timid, often hiding behind Iago's legs when they go out but like Ptera, quite loyal towards Iago for saving her. Pitch has a tendency to bit Iago's arms and legs when she gets scared which happens quite often. What she lacks in bravery is made up in viciousness. When backed into a corner or given no choice, Pitch will lash out, much like Iago, as a last resort. Pitch is the pacifistic one of the three, preferring to avoid battle when possible.
History: Pitch was a very recent addition to Iago's team. After hearing about sales of Pokémon going down in the Celadon Underground, Iago went around to have a look. There he saw Pitch who was being beaten very badly by trader. Using Ptera to scare the audience and the trader, as well as diverting their attention, Iago managed to sneak around and release Pitch, nursing her back to health in the ensuing weeks.
Please reserve me? I'll have an SU ready by today =D
EDIT: Okay-dokes =D
Name: Greg Jarvis Age: 19 Gender: Male
Appearance: Since fleeing Katsu, Greg has grown a little more and now stands at a height of 6"3. Greg's skin is a fine, deep pale colour. He has rich green eyes and his hair is a brilliant brown. It is now shorter than it was before, growing outward and backwards. He also has a little stubble now as he approaches the end of his teen years. He has also lost a considerable amount of weight in the three years he has been living on the road, certainly looking much fitter than he did back when he joined the Uprising.
Clothing wise, Greg has opted for a more grown up look than he had before. He now wears a black leather jacket, keeping valuables and posessions in the many large pockets it has. Under this is a plain green t-shirt, which you can usually see as Greg prefers to keep his jacket unzipped. He wears dark blue, bootleg jeans aswell as dark brown boots. Accesory wise, Greg has a watch on his left wrist and above all, a belt with two holsters for his guns.
Personality: Greg's personality has also changed slightly in the last three years. Wheras before he was more kindhearted and negotiable, he opts for dealing with conflicts in a quick, more physical way now. He has also became a little more blunt, not afraid to speak his mind or voice his opinion. He has also developed a habit of sounding quite threatening to his enemies, while not losing his temper and keeping his composure. He hasn't necissarily got nerves of steel, but he is less phased or worried about certain things now than he was before, sometimes even itching for a little action.
This dosen't mean he has turned into a bully or a bad person. Underneath, Greg is still the same considerate, social guy he was when he first met The Uprising at Frosty Gorge. He dosen't neccissarily seek out new friends, however he values relationships and will look out for them. Though he may not show it, Greg still worries about his family above all others, and can break under too much pressure.
Greg's view on pokemon hasn't changed either. He still thinks they are fascinating creatures, and has little trouble in gaining their trust. His love for pokemon is part of the reason he still fights for The Uprising.
Background: Greg always wanted to go on his own journey out in the vast world of Pokemon. His main goal was to gain experience and become a gym leader, however due to the PXS this was no longer possible. He comes from a typical family: a mum, dad, sister, and a new baby sister. They all lived in Frosty Gorge in the Katsu region before the incident three years ago.
[I'll begin this part of the history from where the original RP left off ;)]
Greg managed to sneak out of Frosty Gorge after he noticed everyone else splitting up and doing the same. Once outside the walls, he flew on Krow, his Honchkrow, as far away as he could. With no particular place to go, he reached the nearest port town and took the ship to wherever it was headed. This tunred out to be the Sinnoh region. Much to Greg's relief, this place was unaffected by the PXS - seeming like a haven compared to Katsu. He took this opportunity to travel the region and fulfill his ambition of journeying with pokemon.
Along the way, Greg also made sure to spread awareness of Katsu's crisis - talking with local town halls or police stations. Notices were going up, and demonstrations began taking place in selected areas. Greg hoped he had rallied some support for The Uprising through this - if anyone was brave enough. Additionally, Greg caught two more pokemon during his Sinnoh travels: an Elekid and a Monferno. Elekid has since evolved one stage.
Greg never set the idea of returning to Katsu out of his mind. He still dosen't know of the whearabouts of his family, or the state they're in. He had to go back and save his home - this is his main motive.
Additional Information: Greg has become quite adapt with guns now. He carries two handguns in his holsters, aswell as a rifle on his back. It could be argued that he is like a marksman, skilled in accuracy and able to land shots from a considerable distance away. Also, his voice has gotten deeper too - not dramatically but it sounds smoother than when his voice was still in the proccess of breaking three years ago.

Woo it's back!! I'd like to reserve a spot my SU will be up sometime today :)!
Edit:
Trainer: Name: Beo Zyph Age: 21 Gender: Male
Appearance: Appearance: Beo is not a very tall person by any standards. He is only 5 foot 6 and some people dont really think he can handle many tough things at his height. He has a very athletic build though. Before Beo met the uprising his face was emotionless barley ever showing any care for anyone or anything other then his partner Blaze. Beo can now usually be seen with a smile. However his eyes remain the same emotionless black they used to be. Beo's hair has grown much over the last three years it's still blonde but instead of being spiked up it is long and shaggy down over his ears.
As far as his attire is concerned he still dresses quite the same way. He wears a pair of jeans that are ripped in several areas. His Nike shoes are covered in mud and are tattered and worn in. Beo how now just wears a long sleeve black under armour shirts, with a dark blue vest over top of it. He has completely gotten rid of the cape as it had several gun shots through it after the battle at frosty gorge.
Personality: Beo's personality has changed drastically since he met the uprising. Before meeting them three years ago he was a very emotionless person, he only ever showed compassion to his lone pokemon Blaze (Charizard). However after spending a year in the Katsu region and seeing all of the wrong things going on with that region he changed his ways. Now he is a very caring person having three pokemon in his team instead of just Blaze. He no longer feels the need to separate himself from others, instead he is now able to work along side others for a common goal.Beo has always had the same fatal flaw though. Whenever he sees someone else in trouble or danger he finds himself not hesaiting and just jumping right in to help them. This usually causes him to find himself in dangerous situations. It may have been the surviving a gun shot wound that has changed his personality, or just the fact of finding a cause to believe in.
On a side note, Beo has a hard time falling asleep at night because when he is alone and it's quite he has more time to reflect on his parents dissappreance and this is the one thing that bothers him, it causes him to have nightmares. If you ever catch him on a morning after one of those nights he won't be as friendly.
Background: Before meeting the uprising Beo had lived in Pallet town. However at the age of ten his parents mysteriously disappeared, the only thing he had left to remind him of them was a pokemon egg his father gave him just days before. The egg would eventually hatch into his best and only friend Blaze. After the disappearance of his parents Beo lived with prof. Oak for a few years before leaving and traveling alone with Blaze. They would eventually find there way to the Katsu region where he would be attacked by members of the PXS and only when Blaze evolved into a Charizard they managed to escape and become secluded in a tiny shack in Frosty Gorge.
After the incident in Frosty Gorge Beo awoke to find he was lying in a cot inside the pokemon center of Frosty Gorge. The Nurse told him he had been shot in the stomach and it just barley missed hitting his liver. He was lucky to be alive, Blaze however wasn't as lucky; he had taken several shots to his wings and body. It would be a month or so before Blaze would regain his strength.
When Beo was finally able to move he left the Katsu region unsure of where Chris, Greg or the rest of the Uprising had fled to. Beo made his way to the Johto region where he began to look for his parents with his trusty pokemon Blaze and Wags. However over the three years of training and searching he hadn't heard of anything about the Uprising but still he couldn't get them or the Katsu Region off his mind, he felt like he needed to return at one point and do something.
Additional Information: Beo has become very skilled in using a small sword which he keeps hidden under his vest.
RP Sample: Do I have to?
Sign Up: Pokémom
Breed: Blaze (charizard)
Gender: Male
Moves: Flare blitz, Fly, seismic toss, Slash.
Appearance: Blaze has a scar over his right eye, as well there are several small scars across both his wings, and however they are only noticeable whenever he spreads them out.
Personality: Blaze's personality is match like Beo's. Before the uprising he only looked out for himself and Beo however after the incident he's personality has adapted to match Beo's, because they both consider themselves lucky to be alive.
History: Blaze was given to Beo by his father in the form of a pokemon egg at the age of ten. He has spent the last 11 years with his trainer and the two are inseparable.
Additional information: May or may not hold the key to the disappearance of Beo's parents.
Breed: Wags (Poliwrath)
Gender: Male
Moves: Bubblebeam, hypnosis, Dynamic punch, body slam.
Appearance: Wags looks just like any other Poliwrath.
Personality: When Beo first found Wags he was a scared little pokemon with no guts to stand up and fight. But after spending it's time with Beo and evolving it has become a fighter and more ferocious.
History: Beo first stumbled upon Wags during a battle in Frosty Gorge with Greg. They both found it very weird for a poliwag to be in an area such as Frosty Gorge. During the incident Beo kept Wags in it's pokeball the whole time.
Breed: Leafy (Bayleef)
Gender: Female
Moves: Razor leaf, synthesis, poison powder, reflect
Appearance: Same as any other.
Personality: Leafy is the complete opposite of the rest of Beo's party. She is overly friendly and is always searching for attention. She will try to always get out of her pokeball when Beo has Blaze or Wags out.
History: Beo met and captured Leafy as a Chikorita outside of Goldenrod City while journeying through the Johto Region. He actually found it next to the daycare which may hint at the fact it was newly hatched and escaped from there.
I believe that Isabel would have found a way to get in contact/stay in contact with the old Uprising members, which means that most would probably meet up before going into the region together.

Pokemon
Nickname: Munch
Breed: Munchlax
Gender: Male
Moves: Metronome, Lick, Body Slam, Defense Curl
Appearance: Other than his regular Munchlax qualities, he has a small scar on his left ear.
Personality: Overall Munch is a total glutton whose dining habits resemble that of his owner. He travels around care free and for the most part never serious. Munch is completely loyal to Charlie.
History: Munch was the first Pokemon Charlie received. One of his friends caught him and gave Munch to Charlie as a joke. The two bonded over a plate of spaghetti and have become inseparable ever since.
Pokemon
Nickname: Rudy
Breed: Swalot
Gender: Male
Moves: Sludge, Body Slam, Yawn, Encore
Appearance: Normal Swalot
Personality: The somewhat sluggish and dimwitted Rudy is only in it for the food. He personally believes that he is the one who is in control of Charlie and that he is the one who leeches food off of Charlie. So what if he occasionally fights as long as he gets fed everyday.
History: Rudy was found in the air ducts of the PXS building as a Gulpin. Rudy stole food from Charlie during his unintentional PXS infiltration. The aftermath resulted in Rudy's equally unintended capture and his nickname "Rudy" for his "rude" behavior. Rudy evolved during the PXS invasion of the Pokemon Center in Frosty Gorge.
Pokemon
Nickname: Mama
Breed: Mamoswine
Gender: Female
Moves: Ancient Power, Mud Bomb, Ice Fang, Endure
Appearance: Normal Mamoswine
Personality: Towards the majority of the Pokemon (Munch being the exception) she is quite motherly and protective which is why Charlie gave her that nickname. To Munch, however, she is aggressive. From Mama's perspective she is Charlie's love interest who saved her from near uncertain circumstances and will come to adore her even more. She is especially obedient when around Charlie and aggressive towards most women. Munch, who has known Charlie the longest and has a better relationship, is also considered as a rival.
History: Charlie found Mama as a Swinub that was moments away from being deported. Charlie cared for her and the two became attached. She later evolved into Piloswine during a skirmish with PSX mercenaries at a campsite. She evolved once more over the break after learning Ancient Power out of desperation in a battle.
Pokemon
Nickname: Piggy
Breed: Spoink
Gender: Female
Moves: Psywave, Confuse Ray, Psyche Up, Trick
Appearance: Other than normal Spoink qualities, she has a cut on her left ear and one on the right side of her stomach.
Personality: Piggy has an overall distrust of humans after being abandoned twice. It is Charlie of whom she focuses most on ignoring and rebelling against. It's all part of her trashy view on humans and she's sure that Charlie will tire of her and dump her someday. Towards the other owned Pokemon she acts cold. Her ultimate reason for staying with Charlie is similar to that of Rudy (to leech off of Charlie) and because of that she is most close to him.
History: Charlie found Piggy abandoned and beaten up in a dumpster. At that moment she was too exhausted to stop him (she might have refused otherwise) and he caught her with the intention of taking her to a Pokemon Center for treatment. Begrudgingly, she decided to stay with Charlie for the food and his protection.
Will be finished eventually... it's not like I can skip out of it ;.; Cause I know that you have the power to stalk me down until I do ^-^'
Appearance: Well tanned, tall (5'11), and athletic, Marcus is the stereotypical outdoors-man, which is odd considering he lived most of his life in the tenements of Saffron City. Possessing stunningly gray eyes and short, black hair (gelled up in a fauxhawk). The sole remains of the life he led are a broken nose which goes a tad to the left, a missing molar, and hard-earned muscles, which he is rather proud of. Due to a lack of resources, he usually shaves about once a week, and therefore has his face covered in black stubble for several days at a time. Commonly, he wears baggy, faded carpenter's jeans, a pair of scuffed, worn out work boots, and a plain white t-shirt and black track jacket with red and white stripes on the collar.
Personality: Marcus has a tough-luck approach to life, which he more commonly uses to hide his complaints against his own damn luck. Hard-working and hard-going, Marcus frequently marches to point where he topples over from exhaustion, always hearing something that tells him to keep going forward. When nobody's around, Marcus frequently berates himself, cursing his luck, his pokemon, and everyone around him for leading him astray from his original course.
He speaks harshly, though more out of force of habit then anything else. His pokemon take his comments with a grain of salt, remembering that he means little or none of the abuse he throws at them. Other people are usually slow to recognize it, however. He is believed to speak in a British accent under extreme stress.
Background: Born in Saffron City, Marcus was far too poor to begin a Pokemon journey, so he started off unemployed and watching Pokemon documentaries and competitive battling, both of which eventually fueled his drive to become a Pokemon hunter. When he was 15 and walking home from a construction site where he worked off the books, Marcus encountered a Pokemon - a Tyrogue that had been abandoned. Not needing a second chance, Marcus 'adopted' the abandoned Pokemon, nabbed his meager savings, and took off down the road.
Unfortunately, he ran out of money in Fuschia City. Not content to starve to death, Marcus began sneaking into the Safari Zone after-hours to steal Pokemon, then promptly sell them to Team Rocket and various collectors to get food, medicine, and more pokeballs.
With some backing from the Rockets, Marcus improved his hunting abilities and was jet-setting around the globe, making off with hundreds of pokemon at a time, and all without the use of complex machinery that most other hunters used, not to mention being pursued by six different police forces. He was once heard to boast, "Gimme a knife, a tree, an Ultra Ball, and some dirt and I can catch the Galaxy." Unfortunately, luck caught him when he was hunting Tyranitar in Katsu, and he was promptly stuck in a country where Pokemon, much less stealing and selling them, were outlawed.
He spent the last two years wandering, stealing what he needed to eat and working off the books or providing muscle for various gangs, keeping his Pokemon a secret, and trying to find a way out of that damn country. Hearing news of an Uprising, Marcus abandoned the gangs and construction sites, determined that his best way of leaving Katsu behind him is to join up.
Additional Information:
RP Sample: Do I really need one? The one I have is a bit... mature language and violence wise for this site.
Pokemon:
Brucie (male Hitmonlee)
Hi Jump Kick
Meditate
Revenge
The most violent member of Marcus' team, Brucie spends most of his time beating up trees and building walls for practice, and beating the crap out of other's pokemon in battles, and occasionally their trainers. Possessing little time for more intellectual pursuits, he nonetheless has a close bond with Hando, much to the surprise of everyone. He obeys Marcus absolutely, and frequently attempts to beat Shaka to a bloody pulp whenever possible.
Resembles a more muscular Hitmonlee except for a rougher, more cut-up and bruised torso from years of one man fighting.
The more philosophical member of the team, Hando is prone to incredible feats of violence, and then quiet contemplation over the most mundane occurrences, which he often shares with Brucie, his more violent foil, not that it does much to alter his companions personality. He regards Marcus as an amusing study, and Shaka with utter contempt. Surprisingly, he is kind and gregarious around many other Pokemon, including baby pokemon.
Resembles a regular Tyranitar, but with several teeth missing.
Shaka: (Female Crobat)
Mean Look
Air Slash
Fly
Poison Fang
The newbie to Marcus' team, Shaka commonly transports Marcus during the dead of night, when most people won't notice a giant, four-winged Pokemon transporting someone across Katsu. Having as deep set a personality as her master, Shaka frequently accompanies her master's angry outbursts about life, luck, and everything else with incessant, annoying crows. Coincidentally, she is unliked by Brucie and Hando, and too a lesser extent by Marcus.
Exactly like a regular Crobat, though a bit malnourished, as a result of Brucie and Hando throwing her food away when Marcus isn't looking
Gah! My eyes! The goggles do nothing! Somebody took them. Oh well, good thing I got a spare *Pikachu Eyes*

Name: Chris Eaton
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Background: (Continuing from after Katsu)
Escaping from the Katsu region seemed easy, at least, compared to immediately after. After the escape, Chris found himself in a port, looking for the first ship out of the region. Johto would've been preferable, or even Sinnoh, but fate decided to show him to one place: Sootopolis City. Chris froze as he read his ticket. The next ship wasn't set to leave for another 2 days, there was no way he could stay here that long. For the sake of his Pokémon and future, Chris took the ship, headed to the last place he wanted to be.
Upon arrival at Sootopolis, he kept low, heading to the Pokémon Center for shelter and protection, but what were the chances of running into the last person he needed to see: his mother. Chris's body tensed up as their gazes met, ready to sprint off into any direction, but he didn't need to. Before he could even react, his mother embraced him, immediately sputtering how they hadn't missed one of his televised matches, or how they never stopped supporting him along the way, or how much they missed him.
Tears filling his eyes, his mother dragged him back to the house, the very same he ran away from. Here, he would stay for two months, healing both his wounds and heart. Finally, he again left, but this time, saying goodbye.
His first stop was LittleRoot town, only bringing Dile and Sakura along. Here, he sped through the Hoenn Challenge, earning all the badges in a little under a year, and re-earning the gazes of the battling world. He soon competed in the Hoenn League Championship, winning 9th place with his team.
Not satisfied with the placement, but not disheartened, Chris traveled back to Sootopolis, intent on taking a ship to the Sinnoh league. But not before he got a phone call. Immediately after he hung up his PokeGear, he canceled his ticket to Sinnoh, instead, getting one for Kanto. He was going to take the Battle Frontier Challenge.
Chris took a year and a half to complete this challenge, a lot longer than most, but never losing a battle. His heart soared as his name was added to the prestigious list of winners. However, as prestigious as it was, he continued on, the very next day heading to the Sevii Islands. For the next 4 months, Chris trained on these islands, battling trainer after trainer on the islands, before finally heading back to Johto. As fate would have it, his friend, Professor Elm, needed an aid. Taking the job to repay his friend, Chris traveled weekly around the Johto region for Elm, collecting research and again, battling in the gyms and tournaments around the area. However, every week when he returned to Elm's laboratory, he would stop and change his team, making sure every Pokémon of his got equal time.
During these 3 years, Chris never forgot about what happened in Katsu, and would sometimes lie awake on cold nights, just remembering what happened.
Personality: A sarcastic response is the base for most jokes and conversations he makes. However, Chris now knows when he must be serious, sometimes resulting in an abrupt change of face.
Chris would do anything for his Pokemon, considering each one of them his family. No matter what happens, Chris always tries to keep them happy, knowing that if they respect and care for each other, they will work for each other. Things sometimes aren't easy this way, but it works. Trainers with no respect for Pokemon annoy Chris. While before Katsu, he would just glare at them, he now does something about it.
In the past 3 years, Chris has had the tendency to drift off in thought, inadvertently thinking about everything that happened in Katsu. What he did and how it affected everything. When he snaps back into reality, he immediately goes off to train his Pokémon, to try and get it off his mind. He often comments that it's his Pokémon that keep him going.
Although Chris can be rash in some situations and can get frustrated easily when things do not go his way, when Chris calms down and thinks things through, he is a brilliant tactician. But, if someone is able to get his too mad, he may lose his head. However, he does tend to make hasty decisions if time is short.
Most of the time he switches between phases of extremely good luck and extremely bad luck, making him a firm believer in superstition. Sometimes, streaks of bad luck can make Chris seem like a bit of a klutz and may put him in some awkward situations, especially when it matters the most. Nevertheless, things seem, for the most part, to always work out.
Chris can also be very competitive, especially when it comes to sports and challenges, often going into dangerous or somewhat foolhardy situations. Even against a close friend, Chris will give it his all so he can win. When someone beats him, he'll try to play it off, but in his mind, he will furiously go over for hours what could've gone wrong. Even so, Chris accepts loosing; he doesn't like it, but accepts it.
Working for Elm has give Chris more knowledge than ever, and now knows quite a bit about them, improving his battling.
Appearance: Chris has grown slightly since he escaped; now standing at 6`0`` but still retaining an athletic build. However, he still has medium-long, brown hair that spikes up in the front, flat on the top, and with smaller spikes on the back, although, a strand of it now covers his right eye. A light coat of stubble also covers his face, thicker on the chin than anywhere else. But, despite the minute changes, his eyes are unchanged from the deep blue color.
Nowadays, Chris is always dressed in a pair of faded jeans along with a pair of black and white sneakers. He wears a silver-blue t-shirt with random blue, zig-zag bars strewn around it as part of the design; under a black rain-jacket. Chris never keeps his knife on him anymore, fearing that it would make others feel uncomfortable.
RP Sample: NO SAMPLE FOR YOU! :3
Pokémon: (in party)
Nickname Dile (Di-L) Species: Feraligatr Gender: Male Moves: Aqua Tail; Hydro Pump; Ice Beam; Bite Appearance: Looks like a normal Feraligatr, except for a green stripe across his jaw. History: Dile was Chris' first Pokémon. After arriving late from Sootopolis, Chris found that all of the Pokémon were already taken. Professor Elm, although he was studying the Totodile, sent the Totodile over through the Pc system for Chris. Dile is always a part of Chris team and has won him many tough battles with his Ice Beam attack. After the incident in the Katsu region, it didn't take long for Dile to evolve into a Crocanaw, and even shorter to evolve into a Feraligatr. Personality: Despite the recent evolution, Dile has not changed. He still retains the childish and rash personality he's always had, constantly trying to be the center of attention with tricks and stunts.
However, he still is the closest to Chris out of all of his Pokémon, and shares many traits with his trainer.
---
Nickname: Sakura Species: Pikachu Gender: Female Appearance: Normal Pikachu. Heart-Shaped tail. Moves: Volt Tackle, Quick Attack, Thunderbolt, Iron Tail Personality: Sakura is somewhat protective and affectionate at Chris. If someone threatens Chris or injures him, Sakura's cheeks start to spark and she shocks the person. History: Chris found Sakura as a Pichu in the Johto region. As Chris was walking out of Violet City, he saw a group of trainers torturing a helpless Pichu. Chris and Totodile quickly chased them away, and gave the Pichu to a Pokémon center in Violet City. However, the Pichu was grateful of Chris saving her and decided to come with him. Chris noticed the Pichu's love of the Sakura flowers and named her after them.
After Katsu, Chris never let the Pokemon away from his side, not that she wanted to anyways. She always sits on Chris's shoulders, taunting Dile (now that he can't)
-----
Nickname: Takeo Species: Buizel Gender: Male Moves Ice Beam, Water Pulse, Aqua Jet, Razor Wind Appearance: Although the fur on the top of his head is spiked up in numerous directions, nothing else really separates him from other Buizel. History: Chris received Takeo from Elm after completeing the Battle Frontier Challenge. Apparently, the Pokemon's previous owner abandoned the Buizel, and with Elm unable to care for it, the Buizel was sent to Chris. Although Takeo loves to fight, he hates to train, making the time spent with him in the Sevii Islands almost unbearable. Personality: A loner that dislikes most other Pokémon and people, Takeo has been this way since day one. Although recently, he has warmed up to Chris a little, Takeo has a tendency to disobey Chris, going for power over tactics. He's not majorly bothered by other Pokémon, mostly ignoring them. However, he does get along well with Rio.
-----
Nickname: Fiore Species: Breloom Gender: Female Moves Sleep Powder, Solar Beam, Focus Punch, Sky Uppercut Appearance: The three bushes on her tail are orange and red instead of the usual green. History: Caught as a shy Shoomish lost in the Viridian Forest, Fiore quickly took a liking to Chris. Although at first not much of a battler, Chris helped the Pokémon train hard, hastily allowing her to evolve. Now, she holds the crucial part of being the only Grass Pokémon with him.
Personality: Even though inside of battle Fiore is fierce, outside of battle, she still is the same shy Shroomish Chris found in the Viridian Forest. Over-apologetic and cautious as well, she prefers to stay out of the spotlight when not on the battlefield, standing as close to Chris as possible.
----
Nickname: Haru Species: Swellow Gender: Male Moves Aerial Ace, Steel Wing, Theif, Giga Impact Appearence: Looks like a normal Swellow, par one red line traveling from his right eye, to his neck. History: Haru was Chris's first catch in the Hoenn region, and soon became one of his greatest assets, but greatest liabilities. Despite this setback in personality, Haru quickly evolved in the quest for the gym badges, winning Chris many badges. Personality: The Pokémon sees itself as being the best out of everyone and thing, and is not afraid to show it. Most of the time, it struts around, showing off its power and pride. Luckily, he doesn't try to undermine Chris, and listens well.
----
Nickname: Ryuu Species: Gligar Gender: Male Moves: X-Scissor, Earthquake, Fire Fang, Stone Edge Appearance: This Gligar is a bit larger than most others, probably contributing to its personality as well. Ryuu also has one fang, his right one to be precise, which always sticks out over his bottom lip. Personality: Arrogant and egotistical, Ryuu has always strives to be the best. Preferring to be alone most of the time, the Pokémon constantly trains to fulfill this idea. He seems to vie against Haru, possibly because they share the same insane beliefs.
History: Traveling through the Southern regions of Johto, Chris came across this arrogant Gligar. Overconfident and alone, the Pokémon attempted to beat Chris. Although easily defeated by him, Ryuu has now become a vital part of Chris's battling team.

Spoiler:
Nickname: Ivy Species: Venusaur Gender: Female Appearance: Normal Venusaur Moves: Solarbeam; Leech Seed; Razor Leaf; Sleep Powder History: Chris found Ivy in Mt. Mt. Moon as a Bulbasaur, lost and confused.
Even though she attacked Chris at first, Ivy eventually let Chris lead her out, afterward, joining his team. During his travels in the Kanto region, Ivy evolved into an Ivysaur, in a battle against a gym leader, Lt.Surge.
After Katsu, Ivy fought in many battles, but didn't succed in evolving until training in the Sevii Islands.
Personality: After the incident in Mt. Moon, Ivy has bonded with Chris exponentially, becoming one of the most loyal, and powerful of his Pokemon. She is a tough battler and often uses her tactics in sync with Chris, using moves such as sleep powder to immobilize her opponent as she charges up a Solarbeam attack.
Nickname: Coatl Species: Seviper Appearance: Rather than the regular Purple colored pattern, Coatl's pattern is pink. Gender: Female Moves Poison Fang, Poison Jab, Crunch, Giga Drain. History: Chris caught the Pokemon traveling in the Hoenn region, finding it (predictably) fighting a Zangoose. Chris took both Pokemon to the Pokemon Center before taking the Seviper along with him. The Zangoose, however, was set free.
Personality: Fairly lax compared to Chris and his other Pokémon. She often loves basking in the sun, and does it vastly more than training. Sometimes, it literally takes Chris to drag her to go and train.
Nickname: Slash Species: Skymory Gender: Female Appearance: Normal Skymory Moves: Air Slash; Steel Wing; Metal Sound; Air Cutter History: Chris caught Slash in Johto after it was causing havoc to a nearby town, using its Metal sound to break windows. After the Championship, Chris gave him a break in Pro. Oak's lab.
Personality:
Slash has always been a troublemaker, often tricking people by ticking them off, and when they pursue, jumps out and scares them. In battle, this strategy can actually work fairly well.
Nickname: Drako Species: Seadra Gender: Male Appearance: Normal Seadra Moves: Hydro Pump, Twister, Bubblebeam, Agility History: Chris caught Drag in Dewford Town, but he was immediately sent to Prof. Elm's. In the Johto League Championship, Drag was able to hold his own exceptionally well, helping Chris get through the Semi-Finals.
Personality: Drag has always tried to prove his worth to Chris, even though Chris knows Drag is a great battler. He tries to be the center of attention in front of Chris, and is not a good double/group battler. Chris had just recently traded Drag for Rio in the Katsu region.
---
Nickname: Magnet Species: Magneton Gender: N/A Appearance: Normal Magneton Moves: Thunderwave; Thunderbolt, Mirror Shot; Supersonic History: Chris had received Magnet as a Magnetmite from Lt. Surge. The Magnetmite had appeared on LT. Surge's door about a week before. He gave it as congratulations to Chris for winning the battle. While travelling to the Indigo Plateau, Magnet evolved into a Magneton
Personality: Magnet seems to stare out into space quite often. Sometimes it is so deep in thought, when Chris calls its name, it doesn't hear. In battle Magnet uses its Thunder Wave attack to stun its opponent before attacking.
Nickname: Char Species: Charizard Gender: Male Appearance: Char's wings are covered in scars, mostly from the Battle of Frosty Gorge. Moves: Flamethrower; Dragon Claw; Fire Fang; Blast Burn History: Char evolved fighting
Personality: Probably Chris's most powerful Pokémon, Char doesn't show it, instead, idles around lazily, preferring relaxing to anything else.
Nickname: Lept Species: Cradily Gender: N/A Appearance: Normal Cradily Moves: Energy Ball, Confuse Ray, Ancient Power, Astonish
History: Chris caught Lept as a Lileep in the Whirl Islands. After being sucked down by a giant Whirlpool, Chris was thrown into some sort of cave, filled with all Lileep. Chris couldn't help but catch one. During his travels, Lept evolved into a Cradily.
Personality: Lept likes to scare Chris and others with its Astonish move, giving it an "Impish" sort of nature.
Nickname: Silver Species: Pidgeot Gender: Male Moves: Agility, Fly, Air Slash, Mirror Move Personality: Pidgeot is very loyal to Chris, obeying orders without question. He's a voice of reason around others, almost like a mentor to some. Appearance: Looks like a normal Pidgeot, save a scar on his right wing received during the Battle of Frosty Gorge. History: Silver was Chris' first Pokémon ever captured. Even though the Pidgey had escaped a few times before capture, Chris managed to chase it down and capture it, naming it "Silver" after a streak of light he saw in the middle of the night after he captured it.
During the battle against the Celedon Gym leader, Silver evolved into a Pidgeotto, helping Chris win the battle.
And again, before the Kanto League Championship, Silver evolved again into a Pidgeot against a rival, Gavin. Although Chris sent Pidgeot to Professor Elm in his travels in Johto, Chris recovered Silver prior to his travels in Katsu.
After Katsu, Silver still remained a viable and powerful Pokémon in Chris's team, winning him many battles in both the Hoenn league and Kanto Battle Frontier.
Nickname: Rio Species: Lucario Gender: Female Appearance: Normal Lucario, however, has Pink eyes. Moves: Counter, Force Palm, ExtremeSpeed, Aura Sphere History: Originally caught in Katsu, Rio has always been an unpredictable, but strong member of Chris's team. She evolved during the Quarter Finals of the Hoenn League Championships, winning him the match. Personality: Although orders have never been her strong point, Rio has warmed up to Chris, but still prefers to be left alone.
---
Nickname: Cynder Species: Typhosion Gender: Female Appearance: Normal Typhosion Moves: Flame Wheel, Flamethrower, Swift, Smokescreen History: Cynder was Chris' second catch in the Johto region, finding her in the Ilex Forest as a Cyndaquil. After weeks of training, Cynder soon evolved into a Quilava. After Cynder's quick evolution, Chris was confident that Cynder would evolve again. However, much to Chris's and Cynder's dismay Cyinder is having trouble evolving into a Typhosion. While making the decision to go to the Katsu region, Chris chose Cynder to try to help her evolve. Ironically, it wouldn't be until after that the Pokémon did, evolving in the first match out of Katsu. Personality: Cynder is arguably one of his team's hardest workers. Determination and eagerness are her strong points, always being the first one to try a new thing or do something new. And when difficulty arises, she will persevere until he gets it.
---
Nickname: Psy Species: Slowbro Gender: Male Appearance: Normal Slowbro Moves: Psychic, Reflect, Water Pulse, Disable History: Chris caught Psy as a Slowpoke, which surprisingly knew Psychic, in Fuchsia City after losing to the Gym leader there. Chris thought that capturing a psychic type Pokémon would help him win, which it did.
On his trip to the Seafoam Islands, Psy evolved after fighting a Gyarados that attacked the ship.
After Katsu and the battle that ensued there, Chris gave the Pokémon a well deserved break. It wasn't until the Hoenn League Championship he would see action again. Personality: Psy is still a Lax Pokémon, often getting on Chris' nerves, and into a massive number of bad situations. He loves to tick off other people and Pokémon alike, mostly by making any situation bad or awkward.
Nickname: Cedrik Species: Sandslash Gender: Male Appearance: Normal Sandslash. Moves: Sandstorm, Dig, Rock Tomb, Night Slash History: Cedrik was given to Chris in Katsu through a dying friend's promise, and throughout all the years, Chris has kept it. Cedrik didn't leave Chris's team in the Kanto Battle Frontier Challenge; Chris instead trained him constantly, trying to make the Pokémon as strong as he could. Even now, the Sandslash has a ways to go, but is able to hold itself in some tough battles. Personality: Cedrik is understandably a bit sullen, but seems to cheer up around Chris and his Pokémon. Although, sometimes Cedrik gets the feeling that he will never truly be a part of Chris's team, feeling a duty to his old trainer. Even so, this also pushes the Pokémon forwards: the knowledge that his trainer would want him to be as strong as he could. Cedrik hates the snow and ice, sometimes refusing to be in it all together.
Nickname: Screech Species: Golbat Gender: Male Appearance: Normal Golbat Moves: Supersonic, Air Cutter, Poison Fang, Mean Look. History: Screech and Chris first met in a PXS facility, both working together to escape the horrible place. After the escape and recovery of the rest of his team, Chris kept Screech, knowing that the Pokemon would possibly never be able to be returned to his previous trainer.
Screech evolved into a Golbat after training in the Sevii Islands. However, he has yet to evolve further. Personality: Screech has always been rather loud, using Supersonic or other high pitched sounds to indicate his mood. The Golbat loves to bite people as well, although, it's more so Chris then anyone else.
