Sorry about the time it's taking to make my SU. I'm busy for the week and I'll have to work on it tomorrow or the day after.
I may have already had something already but my character idea fuel is weak :(

Ooh! I'm in!
Main:
Name: John Vero. Likes being called Johnny.
Gender: Male.
Age: 17 and 5 months
Appearance:
He has brown, greasy hair that stretches about 3/4 down his neck. He has blueish green eyes that are oddly faded and have a sad demeanor to their happy appearance, and he has slightly tanned skin. Johnny has a tall and scrawny build, standing at 5'' 9'. He has a somewhat rounded baby-like face, which he's self-conscious about.
John dresses very casually in t-shirts and black jeans. His t-shirts usually contain bright, stylized pictures of Pokémon he likes, logos of bands he likes, or something depicting his dark sense of humor.
He generally looks cheerful and/or anxious, with a hint of sadness at times. When he gets worried, his eyebrows go down, giving him a sad look.
Personality:
John is usually fairly happy. He's fairly talkative most of the time (Even moreso when he gets excited), but if he's tired or upset, he barely talks. Johnny is easily embarrassed, which his loudness when anxious doesn't help. He tends to remain calm unless someone bugs him too much. He tries to remain calm because when he yells, his voice cracks, which causes him to become greatly embarrassed. He panics fairly easily.
John loves Rock music, rare/strange Pokémon, Pokémon battles, hanging out with friends and their Pokémon, learning about Pokémon, excuses to bring out his 'Mon (He also likes mixing up his useage of the word "Pokémon").
He hates being caught saying stupid things, as well as good people being misguided and making terrible mistakes.
History:
John was born in Twinleaf Town. At a young age, he was surrounded by Pokémon and he loved them. He particularly enjoyed seeing how evolution worked. His mother had a Butterfree around that was from her time in Kanto. That was her only Pokémon and the only one Johnny (As he liked to be called) had immediate contact with. At the age of 6, he saw his 1st battle, with a teenager from Johto named Joey, who used a Raticate against some local trainer who quit after he was defeated by the top grade of Raticate. By the age of 7, John knew plenty about Pokémon and he worshipped an elusive trainer named Red, whose story was infamous. He was apparently spotted in the mountains somewhere. Young Johnny made it his life goal to meet Red. At the age of 10, he got his 1st Pokémon, a Turtwig named Trent.
They traveled across Sinnoh together, catching other Pokémon and getting other badges left and right, not even paying that much attention to other parts of Sinnoh, other than other trainers, one of whom told of a contest hall. John lied that he'd check it out. He eventually became the Champion, beating a boy named Lucas, though he was dethroned by Cynthia, whom he'd heard of earlier. He challenged her back and lost many times. Now 12, he backtracked along Sinnoh, wondering what he'd done wrong. In Hearthome City, he stopped at the Contest Hall. He was never the same way again. Before, he certainly cared about his Pokémon, but now, for the first time, he empathised with them. This newfound care helped him dethrone Cynthia. He was nearly 13, and he traveled to the Johto region for new challenges.
Shortly before he left, he heard a tale of a foolish trainer who ditched his Pokémon and replaced them with every new journey, and was never able to become a champion. John vowed to maintain his 'Mon and went off to Johto.
After catching some more Pokémon and making his way through 3 gyms, he went back to New Bark Town to ask Professor Elm if he knew anything about Red. Elm told him to ask an 18 year old named Roger Balzary, himself a fan of Red. Roger lived was a Johto native, and traveled near New Bark, Mt. Silver, and anywhere else Red may have roamed. John carried on his way.Eventually, after 8 badges, 1 year, and numerous bug-catching contests, near the Pokémon League, John ran into a strange, hiker-looking fellow. This "fellow" was Roger, who'd heard that Lance may know something of Red. After introductions, Roger and John talked for hours. At first, the conversation revolved around Red, eventually drifting towards Pokémon discoveries, experiments, and evolution. During this Lance approached the two.
Roger insisted that Lance tell them anything he knew about Red. Lance said that Red was here a few days ago and said he was going to Pallet Town to relax for once. They thanked him and were about to depart when Lance asked for a battle. Not for title of Champion, just a fun double battle. John ageed, but Roger didn't have any 'Mon on him. John had a 1v1 with him and barely won as Roger cheered himo on. Lance was satisfied as they departed.
When they arrived at Pallet Town, Red was just leaving. They stopped him and asked for a battle. Johnny lost in the end, but Red autographed Trent's (now a Torterra) Pokéball, and a piece of paper Roger had saved for this day. Red never said a word and left. John was 13, almost 14, when Roger and he decided to travel through Kanto
together. Eventually they both got sidetracked from the goal of collecting badges and just hung around. At age 15, John went back to Sinnoh. He and Roger, who moved to Kanto maintained a good level of contact until John turned 16. When John turned 17, his gift was a plane trip to Kalos, which was distant are moe expensive than the other regions he'd been too. He messed around for the 1st few months until, at a café in Lumiose City, he encountered Roger. Roger told him about the OEL's proposal. Roger and John agreed to do it togetherand went off to Hoenn.
Sample: John was attempting to make concersation with the others when it happened. CRASH! For about 20 seconds he was in disbelief. And when it hit him, all hell broke loose. "AH! WHAT HAPPENED?!?"
Pokémon:
-Trent the Torterra (Male): John's starter from Sinnoh. Loyal, calm, and perfectly in touch with Jonn.
-Bata the Butterfly (Female): Caught in Kanto as a Caterpie. Happy and energetic.
-Knives the Vaporeon
Caught in Kanto. Quiet and calm, a little violent.

I didn't mark a primary character; I'm not really bothered which of these gets the short end of whatever stick may be thrown at them. Surprise me :p
Also just so you know, these characters are linked to a character which Greiger will be submitting in that they knew each other as children.

We'll be starting pretty soon. I have to get my butt in gear (naughty GM) to finish my secondary, then we can get moving.

Alright, I will rewrite my sample, probably tomorrow. On that note, if we submit a secondary, do they need a sample as well?
New Sample:
Johnny wondered what exactly they might find there. He heard the stories of how some Pokémon now native to Sinnoh had once not even been known about. At the time, he'd dismissed it as a myth, until he'd actually heard about new Pokémon being found in Kalos. Some Pokémon that even the most high-profile scientists had dismissed as myths and folk-legends had been found.
That reminded him, since they were going far underwater in search of rare Pokémon, perhaps they would find Lugia. Lugia was not a water-type; Johnny knew that much. But it was a Pokémon closely linked to water. A guardian of the sea, he thought. Wait...were they disturbing the peace of the sea? Would Lugia attack them. Johnny became sick to his stomach with the thought until he remembered.
That trainer from Johto...Johnny couldn't recall his name. He managed to befriend a Lugia. Or did he? Was that just a myth? Could a trainer actually manage to befriend a legendary guardian so easily? Johnny wasn't sure. Even some of the greatest trainers in the world had never seen one...on the other hand, were there any other "guardians?" He knew they were looking for undiscovered Pokémon...
CRASH! A sudden loudness penetrated Johnny's ear drums. The shock knocked him forward onto the floor. His head hurt terribly. He couldn't hear anything. His eyes were forced shut, as if they didn't want to peer at something that could be something traumitizing. It was at this moment that his mind had finally come back into focus. What...happened? Was he dreaming? He lifted a hand to touch his head. No, that pain was defiantly real. What was going on?
No, he thought...it couldn't be. Surely they couldn't send minors on a trip if it was so dangerous. Suddenly, he remembered. "OEL is not responsible for any injurys or death." He couldn't remember where he heard that, but he very well knew it was legitimate. He face went pale and he shivered with fear...no, maybe that was just the temperature.
But surely they would have taken some extra safety precautions. He grinned and decided to keep his eyes shut to hold his delusion for as long as he could. Surely someone just dropped something and that was the reason the deafening noise had occured. He frowned. But what would have knocked him out of his chair with physical force? As his hearing began to come back, he slowly opened his eyes to shatter the delusion.
And what he saw was horrifying.
His brain thought so many mixed emotions that he thought it might explode. It certainly felt like it. He was going to scream something, probably an urgent cry for help, but his brain couldn't keep anything straight, so his mouth spewed forth meaningless gibberish. After that though, he had one thought that had evaded his mind earlier and he was finally able to yell something comprehensable.
"ROGER!"

That's much better! Keep your posts that caliber and you'll be just fine here. Please remember that if you resort back down to one-liners we'll have a major problem, but you are accepted.
MORE EDIT: Nate is done!
Name: Nathan Hayes
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Appearance: Nate's most notable feature is his cocky smirk. It never seems to melt off of his handsome features, even in situations less than favorable to him. This show of unconcerned arrogance usually infuriates others who would like to see some humility out of him. His complexion is fair and unblemished, contrasting with flippantly curly dark hair. It always sticks up in the front a bit, adding to his "don't care" impression. In truth the style is intentional. His eyes are dark grey. One eyebrow is nearly always raised as he looks down his nose at others. He is all of five feet and ten inches and he detests those who are taller than him. In addition to his average height he wears boots with heels that are unusually high for a male. With no regard for functionality he wears these even in training and out on the field.
In addition to these boots he wears dark bootcut jeans that are tight in all the right places but looser on the legs, tight tees, and a well fitted dark leather jacket. In the lining of the jacket are fasteners sewn in that hold his Pokeballs. When he carries a bag of supplies it's always the most fashionable and attractive bag he can find. Whether it's a messenger bag, backpack, or one-shoulder style just depends on what is "in" at the time.
Personality: A social butterfly, Nate is rarely seen without a group of at least three other people. These people have to be at least half as attractive as he is, of course. He is talkative and is very much a one-upper. Anything anyone else can do he can do ten times better, or so he'll say. He never hesitates to share the impressive things he truly believes he's done. So intent is he on sharing these stories that he at times tells them more than once to the same person without realizing it. He's one of those people that always has to have a significant other. As long as the individual in question supports his ego, is physically appealing, and indulges in certain things he quite enjoys often, he doesn't much care who they are. He is not exactly well versed in fidelity and will have many different lovers. Very rarely do they all know about one another. This fact does not concern him in the slightest and if caught he just shrugs it off and moves on. His natural charm and skill at deception make him a quite convincing partner.
The same way his romantic relationships are shallow, his friendships are short lived and rarely honest. They last only as long as the person can be beneficial to him. Nate tends to dislike people that are too much like him. Two egos of that size can't fit in a single room, after all.
Nate flourishes in stressful situations. He always tries to take charge. His charm and self-assured nature make him seem like a good decision for a leader, but his polished appearance discourages some from thinking of him as an authority.
When facing true danger Nate's cocky demeanor shrivels quickly. He gives in to his fears and becomes nearly impossible to console. Rationale fails him and he chooses to do things that are not in the best interests of his survival. Without a second thought he'll sacrifice others to keep himself alive. For this reason he's not someone anyone should want around when situations get serious.
History: Nate grew up in Saffron, Kanto. His mother stayed at home with him and his father was the CEO of one of the largest companies in the city. He grew up never wanting for anything and he certainly did take advantage of that. Through his youth he was constantly getting into trouble as he disrespected one authority figure after another. Perhaps that would have stopped if his mother hadn't defended him at every turn. His father was nearly always absent and never said much either way.
In fact his father didn't truly take an interest in him until he was thirteen. He sat Nate down and told him that he wanted Nate to take over the company when he retired. Enchanted by the thought of all that money and power, Nate enthusiastically promised that he would be the best candidate. He began learning about business and marketing and he quickly took to it. For his fourteenth birthday he was given his choice of ten different Pokemon available in the city. His first instinct was to go with something intimidating and large, but instead he opted for a Growlithe. He raised the young male pup for a short time before purchasing a Fire Stone and making him evolve. Hatch became his only real companion, or at least the only one he didn't care to manipulate.
He caught, bought, and won Pokemon after that. He could have taken the gym challenge but instead he opted to continue learning business. That worked for him for quite a while but inevitably he began aching for adventure, for a test of his strength and intelligence. He came across the OEL pamphlet and was instantly intrigued. Motivated not by the money but by the chance for fame he opted in immediately.
Pokemon:
-Species: Arcanine
-Nickname: Hatch
-Gender: Male
-Personality: Hatch is loyal and heavily devoted to Nate. He'll do anything to please his master, although that doesn't happen often. He is obedient and will do just about anything he's asked to do with no thought paid toward his self preservation.
-Brief History: Hatch was selectively bred by a contest breeder in hopes of having at least one blue eyed pup in the litter. However, he came out with heterochromia and was instantly disqualified from ever being shown. Nate didn't notice that when he picked him out and was disappointed by it but it doesn't affect his use as a battler and that is most likely the only reason Nate didn't discard him for something else.
-Appearance: Like others of his species, Hatch is large and muscular. Since he was bred to be a contest Pokemon his coat is thick, lush, and beautiful. His stripes are well defined and his mane is thick and buoyant. Nate regularly has him professionally groomed. His claws are kept long and sharp but clean and well manicured. His right eye is deep blue, while the left is chocolate brown.
-Moveset: Fire Blast, Attract, ExtremeSpeed, Roar, Agility, Thunder Fang
-Anything Else: Nate cares more than Hatch does when Hatch gets dirty or is injured.
-Species: Meowstic
-Nickname: Janis
-Gender: Female
-Personality: Rude, selfish, and aggressive, Janis only likes Nate. She's been known to attack people and Pokemon unprovoked, then run to Nate with the cutest little voice she can muster and beg him for forgiveness. It works every time. She's quite vain and always keeps her curls in perfect order. She looks down her nose at people and Pokemon that she thinks are scruffy or ugly.
-Brief History: Nate bought Janis from another contest breeder. She was sold because her personality made her nearly impossible to show. As her sire and dam were imported from Kalos, she was quite expensive.
-Appearance: Like Hatch, Janis is frequently professionally groomed. Her fur is brilliantly white and soft and her curls are bouncy and always perfect.
-Moveset: Magical Leaf, Future Sight, Light Screen, Signal Beam, Shadow Ball, Disarming Voice
-Anything Else: She has fewer qualms about unleashing her impressive psychic energy than others of her species.
-Species: Vaporeon
-Nickname: Ajax
-Gender: Male
-Personality: Most individuals of his species are temperate and gentle. Ajax breaks that mold. Tenacious and snide, he is a perfect compliment to his master. He is known among other Pokemon for his cruel remarks and in battles he likes to strip the other Pokemon of confidence before annihilating it.
-Brief History: Ajax was won in a bet. His previous master had a serious gambling problem that prevented him from ever respecting him.
-Appearance: For all the battles he's been through he's surprisingly devoid of scars or other marks.
-Moveset: Acid Armor, Ice Beam, Surf, Haze, Dig, Scald
-Anything Else: He is Nate's strongest Pokemon.

That worked for him for quite a while but inevitably he began aching for adventure, for a test of his strength and intelligence. He came across the OEL pamphlet and was instantly intrigued. Motivated not by the money but by the chance for fame he opted in immediately.
Pokemon:
-Species: Arcanine
-Nickname: Hatch
-Gender: Male
-Personality: Hatch is loyal and heavily devoted to Nate. He'll do anything to please his master, although that doesn't happen often. He is obedient and will do just about anything he's asked to do with no thought paid toward his self preservation.
-Brief History: Hatch was selectively bred by a contest breeder in hopes of having at least one blue eyed pup in the litter. However, he came out with heterochromia and was instantly disqualified from ever being shown. Nate didn't notice that when he picked him out and was disappointed by it but it doesn't affect his use as a battler and that is most likely the only reason Nate didn't discard him for something else.
-Appearance: Like others of his species, Hatch is large and muscular. Since he was bred to be a contest Pokemon his coat is thick, lush, and beautiful. His stripes are well defined and his mane is thick and buoyant. Nate regularly has him professionally groomed. His claws are kept long and sharp but clean and well manicured. His right eye is deep blue, while the left is chocolate brown.
-Moveset: Fire Blast, Attract, ExtremeSpeed, Roar, Agility, Thunder Fang
-Anything Else: Nate cares more than Hatch does when Hatch gets dirty or is injured.
-Species: Meowstic
-Nickname: Janis
-Gender: Female
-Personality: Rude, selfish, and aggressive, Janis only likes Nate. She's been known to attack people and Pokemon unprovoked, then run to Nate with the cutest little voice she can muster and beg him for forgiveness. It works every time. She's quite vain and always keeps her curls in perfect order. She looks down her nose at people and Pokemon that she thinks are scruffy or ugly.
-Brief History: Nate bought Janis from another contest breeder. She was sold because her personality made her nearly impossible to show. As her sire and dam were imported from Kalos, she was quite expensive.
-Appearance: Like Hatch, Janis is frequently professionally groomed. Her fur is brilliantly white and soft and her curls are bouncy and always perfect.
-Moveset: Magical Leaf, Future Sight, Light Screen, Signal Beam, Shadow Ball, Disarming Voice
-Anything Else: She has fewer qualms about unleashing her impressive psychic energy than others of her species.
-Species: Vaporeon
-Nickname: Ajax
-Gender: Male
-Personality: Most individuals of his species are temperate and gentle. Ajax breaks that mold. Tenacious and snide, he is a perfect compliment to his master. He is known among other Pokemon for his cruel remarks and in battles he likes to strip the other Pokemon of confidence before annihilating it.
-Brief History: Ajax was won in a bet. His previous master had a serious gambling problem that prevented him from ever respecting him.
-Appearance: For all the battles he's been through he's surprisingly devoid of scars or other marks.
-Moveset: Acid Armor, Ice Beam, Surf, Haze, Dig, Scald
-Anything Else: He is Nate's strongest Pokemon.

If this is still open, I'd love to attempt for a spot.
Name: Remy LeBeau.
Gender: Male.
Age: Nineteen.
Appearance: Golden locks that are swept back in exactly the correct place each and every time, though the true length if left without his own meddling with his beautiful follicles falls to roughly the end of his neck. Much to the contrast of those apathetic eyes that are blue as the heavens above, cruelty and dishonesty hidden behind the charm. Both his face and jawline are by nature slender, his cheekbones high and set, but pronounced with authority, adding to his overall "pretty boy" persona. Having been a star athlete throughout all childhood and his teen years, his shoulders are broad and his body slim; standing at an estimate of six feet and three inches. His pale skin unscathed by any unwelcome marks or scars, Remy is the pinnacle of what one would think of when they say "truly handsome".
Typically, the young male wears clothes of a posh style. A fine dress shirt stitched from only the best of materials, Liepard print and a jacket, that can always be found draping from his shoulders, to compliment his rather odd choice in clothing, crafted from the finest Tauros leather and lined with exquisite Pyroar furs, a simple pair of black slacks along with a belt fashioned from the greatest of Bouffalant hide that could be bought, and his dress slippers finely made from the finest of Miltank. All tanned to a perfect black color.
Personality: What many consider to be ruthless, apathetic, and selfish, Remy seeks nothing other than his own personal goals. He is much more than willing to crush the hopes and dreams of those that attempt to get in his way, or even people that have done nothing. He portrays quite a sadistic streak, leaving many opponents bruised and broken. Near lifeless by the end of the battle, and their Pokéballs shattered to prevent further use.
Narcissistic, he has a God-complex that he does not give any attempts to mask. Rather, he uses his good looks and natural charisma to manipulate those around him into performing tasks that will better him in the near and far future. His personality to the general public seems almost to the opposite spectrum of his true persona. Many believing him to do things for the greater good, and viewing him as a benevolent man. Though, he truly does not care for Pokémon nor humans.
History: Born originally in the Kalos region, his family quickly moved to Johto while Remy was but a baby. Thus, he did not know much of his homeland aside from what his parents had told him. Though it was common in his household for each member to speak their native tongue to each other to another -- French.
Growing up in the city of Goldenrod was befitting for a young Remy, the luxurious and large city complimenting the style that he had chose to live. His family more than well off to do, he was able to afford luxuries with but a snap of his fingers. In fact, they made the previous wealthiest family of Goldenrod look like paupers, but this wealth did come with quite the price. Neither of his parents were ever home, and his relationship with them was but naught.
Much of the stress of not having proper discipline and punishment had caused him to begin to hangout at some rather shady places. Namely the largest of them being the local casino. Once he wrapped his hands around his own coin case he soon became quite the regular there. His winnings were through the roof; nearly having caused it go bankrupt before simply buying it out and operating it so that he could play for free without worry of loss in profits. He came to be a cruel, powerful, and greedy business man by the age of eighteen.
The bond with Pokémon that Remy had was an odd one. He did not obtain his first until he had managed to corner a man with a gambling addiction into betting his beloved Electrike. From there, he began to collect them as trophies, letting those desperate enough gamble away the freedom of their beloved partners.
Sample: The depths of the ocean were immaculate; surely there was no way that man could explore each and every inch of darkness that they were descending into. The submarine seemed nothing special to Remy. His eyes had been able to be graced by something much more luxurious and suave than this heap of scrap that he was travelling in. In fact, he could barely stand being on the damn thing. Cramped and filthy, he was surrounded by nothing more than a group of plebeians.
His gaze remained averted to the window so that he could attempt to keep his thoughts from how much he absolutely dreaded being stuck right here. He had to focus on the end goal; the large sum of money that was promised to him for joining in this expedition. Perhaps he could even gain more glory and fame. That would be quite the way to gain the favor of the public. It was tiresome to stare out into an abyss. His eyes soon becoming strained from the dimly lit depths, and they began to drift to a close without even a realization. It seemed that the journey had worn him, or perhaps boredom had gotten the better of him.
A sweat broke out as he woke up, panic racing through his mind as the alarm sounded, each beep of the horn piercing through his eardrums. "What in Hell is going on here?" Both hands came to clasp over his ears to avoid any further of a headache. The populous of the deep sea vessel was in more than a chaotic frenzy. Screams of hope being abandoned, dreams being shattered, and cries of mercy sounded louder than the alarm. The constant ringing of an automated message repeating itself, "Code red. Evacuate to the nearest exit. Code red. Evacuate to the nearest exist." It was far too crowded for him to follow suit of any mandated evacuation. Instead he reached inside the pocket of his large jacket to remove a Premier Ball, releasing the life from within. Before him now stood his Manectric, Foudre. "Flamethrower!" The electric-type obeyed without hesitation, melting a larger hole into the hull of the metallic monster before being returned to its makeshift home. The next one to follow was a Dive Ball, releasing only a leviathan of a creature, a Gyarados.
Remy mounted upon his fierce sea serpent, making their way towards the surface as he watched the remains of a steel shell sink into the abysmal depths of the ocean, only to be swallowed whole. He could only imagine the horror on the expressions of those that were unfortunate enough not to make it, but this was merely a minor delay in obtaining his promised fortune.
Pokemon:
-Species: Manectric.
-Nickname: Foudre.
-Gender: Male.
-Personality: Not much in contrast to his own, Foudre is quite pompous and arrogant. Undying loyalty to his master and more than willing to sacrifice himself for Remy. The perfect compliment to his trainer. The two are quite mirror opposites of one another, though Foudre is also quite rash and headstrong, more than often rushing into things without thinking ahead.
-Brief History: Foudre was the first living prize that Remy had won at his time in the Goldenrod Casino. A foolish gambling addict that was more than easy to manipulate bet his partner on a game, and lost just as planned.
-Appearance: Foudre is much larger than most of his species, being almost a whole foot taller than the typical size of a full grown male Manectric. Quite muscular and bulky for one, as well, though it does not hinder his speed a bit.
-Moveset: Thunder, Flamethrower, Volt Switch, Crunch, Ice Fang, Hyper Beam.
-Anything Else: N/A.
-Species: Ampharos.
-Nickname: Éclair.
-Gender: Female.
-Personality: Éclair is quiet, timid, and reserved. Much to the opposite of most her comrades and her master. She is perhaps the most favored of all Remy's companions, if not tied with Foudre. This has made her quite affectionate towards her master, and hardly afraid to show it. She's also overbearing and protective of him, growing anxious if someone she doesn't know gets close to him.
-Brief History: Éclair was the first Pokémon that Remy had caught on his own. When he had set out for his journey to challenge the Johto League, he came across an injured Flaffy. Foudre and himself took the young electric-type under their care, nurturing her until she was able to fend for herself.
-Appearance: Large scar running diagonally across chest.
-Moveset: Zap Cannon, Dragon Pulse, Thunder Wave, Power Gem, Confuse Ray, Light Screen.
-Anything Else: Remy prefers not to use her in fights due to her shy and gentle nature.
-Species: Salamence
-Nickname: Chevalier.
-Gender: Male.
-Personality: Noble, honorable, and collected. Chevalier is not like most his brethren, forgoing violent fits of rage and instead remaining levelheaded at most times. Rarely does this dragon ever burst into a violent cry of anger. He is perhaps the voice of reason among all Remy's companions.
-Brief History: Chevalier was given to Remy by his parents upon his commencement into the Johto Leauge Championships. The only gift ever personally given to him by his parents, the little dragon did soon find a special place with his master. Maybe an attempt by Remy to be closer to his parents.
-Appearance: Lower body covered in vast amounts of scars and larger than most specimens of the same breed, though only by a few inches.
-Moveset: Draco Meteor, Outrage, Fire Blast, Roost, Hydro Pump, Fly.
-Anything Else: N/A.
-Species: Gyarados.
-Nickname: Marée.
-Gender: Male.
-Personality: Marée is what most expect from a Gyarados; brash, aggressive, arrogant, and destructive. Known for several occasions of displaying this rather awful behavior, he is perhaps used more sparingly than the rest of Remy's team to save from the possibility of leveling an entire city.
-Brief History: During the incident in which Team Rocket forced Magikarp to evolve at the Lake of Rage Remy had been present -- already determined to catch a Gyarados as it would have been a formidable force on his team. It came as a shock when he saw not just one, but a lake full of rampaging leviathans. Of course it was the perfect opportunity to catch one, but not without attempting to help stop the rage, with a price, of course.
-Appearance: Trident upon head is cracked, missing the leftmost horn to it.
-Moveset: Waterfall, Bounce, Ice Fang, Earthquake, Dragon Dance, Thrash.
-Anything Else: N/A.

Secondary:
Name: Roger Balzary
Gender: Male
Age: About 23
Appearance: Roger has a chubby, but not too fat, build, particularly noticeable with his arms, though it's partly masked by the hair all over his arm. In fact, he also has a similar coat of hair on his legs.
He has a thick beard, and excited-looking green eyes.
Personality: Roger is anxious and easily excited. He's usually in an extremely, almost annoyingly happy mood, but if he's insulted, he can quickly become angry, and, if provoked enough, will use his great strength to threaten the offender. One word from Johnny (Vero) and he'll let up, though.
The most serious attitude he's known to display is in danger or in sadness, he keeps mostly silent while thinking to himself. His mind may be able to freak him out if he can't think of anything to cheer him up.
Roger enjoys watching Pokémon battles and contests, hiking, and television
History: Roger was born in Azelia Town. He first discovered Pokémon through watching televised battles. He swore he would be a trainer when he grew up. At age 2, the first symptoms of anxiety popped up, and he was diagnosed soon after.
His mother was overprotective and it was clear to him by age 6 that she didn't want him to leave on a journey at age 10. He spent the next 4 years trying to convince her, but it was in vain. At age 10, young Roger did not go out on a Pokémon. Things looked bleak.
By age 13, Roger spent most of his time in his room and kept to himself. When he was 15, his mother realized that her son's future looked terrible, and on his 16tn birthday, she gave him the shock of his life. He could, at last go on a journey (He ran out the door as she told him to write).
He picked Chikorita as his starter, but really bonded with a Psyduck he caught (nicknamed Aquatail). At age 17, he started hearing rumors about a great trainer named Red. He made it his lifelong goal (Read: Few years) to meet Red. He, at that point, disregarded training, and followed any leads he could to find Red.
Waiting at the Pokémon League, he encountered a soon-to-be lifelong friend, Johnny Vero. They had a conversation about Red and eventually met him together, but that's another story (lol). Then they traveled through Kanto together and just kinda hung around a while. Most of Roger's Pokémon were caught here.
At the age of 20, they parted ways, but kept in contact. Roger finally went to visit his mom, and after 4 years of waiting, she was not happy, so he rushed out fast and went to Kalos. He lived there for about 2 years in Lumiose City when he got a call on his Pokégear from a strange fellow he'd never heard before.
He asked if Roger would be a part of something called the OEL in Hoenn. He explained what it would entail and Roger was interested. He always loved an adventure and hadn't been on a good one since Kanto. Roger agreed and the man gave him a date and his phone number. He offered to invite any trainer friends because "the more the merrier." A while later, after his 23rd birthday, he met up with a familiar face. He told Johnny about the OEL and he too seemed excited, and so they journeyed together once more...
Sample: Roger was just excited. Was that so wrong? Now he was on the ground, stiff, and it hurt. His nose. It hurt terribly. There was a sudden sound. Maybe it was just...No, he thought, our submarine crashed. Was there anything he could do...?
He suddenly felt hopeless, like the walls were closing in. He felt terribly claustrophobic, for maybe the first time in his life. He felt like he was going to suffocate to death. He felt like he was screaming, but no sound, not the slightest noise came out.
He gasped and panicked for air. His throat did what he imagined the walls doing...it closed. He choked and held his throat, trying to scream, but no sound came. He fainted. The worst part? His throat wasn't closing at all. He fainted from freaking himself out!
Pokémon:
Aquatail the Golduck (Male)
Caught in Johto as a Psyduck. Never were a human and Pokémon so close as with Roger and Aquatail. Aquatail is kind, gentle, loyal, and caring. He doesn't like to fight, but dammit, if he has to, he will, and he packs a punch!
Lights the Lanturn (Male)
Caught in Johto. The real battler of the team. Lights is mostly loyal, but doesn't follow it's owner's orders when he thinks he knows better. He's kindhearted, but hasty.
Digitronic the Porygon (Genderless)
Caught in Kanto. Digitronic follows orders, but enjoys the sight of destruction and is rather violent/sinister.
Profit the Raichu (Female)
Caught in Kanto as a Pikachu. Is wise and seems to somehow give Roger advice.
Tangerine the Dragonite (Female)
Caught in Kanto as a Dratini. It's loyal but a bit reckless when anxious.
Darkness the Malamar (Male)
Caught in Kalos. Personality is extremely twisted and it enjoys pranked trainers it hasn't known long.
P.S: Can I change Johnny's Vaporeon to a Jolteon and add more Mon for him?

Lights the Lanturn (Male)
Caught in Johto. The real battler of the team. Lights is mostly loyal, but doesn't follow it's owner's orders when he thinks he knows better. He's kindhearted, but hasty.
Digitronic the Porygon (Genderless)
Caught in Kanto. Digitronic follows orders, but enjoys the sight of destruction and is rather violent/sinister.
Profit the Raichu (Female)
Caught in Kanto as a Pikachu. Is wise and seems to somehow give Roger advice.
Tangerine the Dragonite (Female)
Caught in Kanto as a Dratini. It's loyal but a bit reckless when anxious.
Darkness the Malamar (Male)
Caught in Kalos. Personality is extremely twisted and it enjoys pranked trainers it hasn't known long.
P.S: Can I change Johnny's Vaporeon to a Jolteon and add more Mon for him?

We are still OPEN. Here's what happened:
1) I had two colts to train. Mine is usually a good boy but lately he's been horrid so I've been out at least four days a week with those little monsters. The mare is going home Monday so it'll slow down thank god.
2) My show bull is a butthead and he won't just shut up and be halterbroke.
3) I got a new job at a boarding stable that's been really time consuming.
4) Exams are coming up!
HOWEVER.
I am not willing to let this thing die. So just to let everyone know, we are still on for this. This weekend I will put the finishing touches on my starting posts and hopefully have them ready to go by Monday. And all of my exams are on Monday and then I'll be a (mostly) free woman.
All of that said, back to GM business.
Powerstars, watch the length on that sample. Remember, this rp is going to require plenty of meat and detail in the posts. However, your secondary character is accepted.
