Pokémon Legends: Saann

This is the OOC thread. Please post all IC posts in the IC thread.​



Storyline:



The Saann Region, found south of Hoenn, this region is abundant with nature. Its cities are very unique, unlike other regions. A city in an island meadow, a city bisected by a river, a city built on mere islets, the Saann region never fails to amaze people with its landscape and history.

In 1812, the Saann region was founded by a group of colonists from the Hoenn region, fleeing from the said region because of the Hoenn-Johto war. In 1820, an evil team arose from the beautiful oasis. They call themselves Team Stellar. Team Stellar was a group from the Johto region who also came to Saann with the colonists. They plundered everything the Saann region's worth. Fortunately, three trainers who were assigned to protect the colonists defeated Team Stellar and disbanded them. In 1827, the Hoenn-Johto war ended and peace was restored to the two regions along with the Saann region. In 1901, the Saann region was deemed an official region by the Pokémon International League and was opened for tourists. Because of this, the whole population of the Saann Region was changed from roughly 250,000 to 1,000,000.

Now, in 2012, to commemorate the Saann region's 200 years, the PIL and the Saann Regional League opens its first Pokémon League circuit. But wait, a new evil team has arisen from the rubbles of Saann's past.

Trainer:

The story starts off with you, travelling to Sunflower Town, to get your very first Pokémon. In the Saann region, the professor here does not give you your Pokémon, but you have to catch it by yourself. Don't worry, the Pokémon you will meet are tame and will not harm you. After that, you are free to explore the Saann region. Your first gym is entirely up to you. How you get there is also completely up to you. Battle gym leaders, your rivals, wild Pokémon, foil Team Stellar's plot of world domination, but most importantly, take time to realize and embrace the nature, culture, and history of the Saann Region.

Team Stellar:

You have been recruited to Team Stellar! Congratulations! As you may have heard, Team Stellar was first conceived by our leader's ancestors. Your job is to rob everything Saann owns. The tasks will be given to you by our very own leader. Crush everyone who stands in your way, don't let anyone stand in your way. But most importantly, destroy Saann.

Name: Althalos
Age: 15
Personality: Althalos is a very kind, easy going and loyal person. He is very mild-mannered and loves just sitting with his pokemon. He has a place in his heart for fire types and he always had at least one while he was living in Johto. Althalos is a fierce battler when he needs to be, as well as a good friend to have when you're sad or really at any other time. Always the optimist, he never looks at the bad side of the situation, no mater the foreseeable outcome.
Appearance: Tall and thin, but not weak. He stands at just over 6 feet and weighs around 140 pounds. He always wears a pair of blue jeans, a red t-shirt with a large black flame printed on the front and Osiris skater shoes. He has light brown hair and icy blue eyes.
History:Althalos was born and raised in Johto, the oldest of three kids and always the one to keep others up beat. When he was five, Althalos' family moved from Cianwood City to Ekruteak, which was a rather bleak town. Althalos never liked it there and left the first chance he got, which was when he was 10. He got a pokemon from Professor Elm like most kids and went on his journey, which lasted the past five years of his life. He has only recently defeated the Indigo Plateau and when he heard about the pokemon league in Saann, he didn't hesitate to go.
Starter: Typhlosion/male/Dom

Welcome to the Saann Region! Please fill up the form below to get your trainer's card.

Name: Austin Hamilton
Age: 15
Hometown: Starlight Town
Personality:
Austin has a cool, level-headed nature. He tends not to panic much, and tries to find the most direct solution to a problem he faces. He has an inherent distrust of authority, and a driving force behind his actions is usually standing up for the little man. He hates seeing injustice being done to anybody, and is quick to react to anybody whom he sees harming other people. Sarcastic at times, but in general he has a tolerant and caring attitude, and is usually good to get along with.

However, he can sometimes be very stubborn, often not taking the advice other people give him when he really should. He is fiercely independent, and tends to be driven closer to people with the same mindset. He can be very determined at times, not giving up easy, even after getting numerous setbacks, on any obstacle.
Appearance:
He has a relatively small posture, standing at only a height of 5'2", and has an average weight, not too chubby or skinny. He has dirt blonde hair, usually kept in bangs that skim his eyebrows, and reach collar-length at the back. His eyes are an icy blue colour, and he possesses a lightly tanned skin colour from the long times he spends outdoors.

He usually wears a red and white plaid button down shirt, which he usually keeps unbuttoned, with a white shirt underneath it, blue jeans, baggy and relatively worn out with a few tears at the bottom near his heels, and black trainers. Most of the time, he wears a typical trainer cap on his head that's red with a white pokéball design on it. He usually keeps the items he needs in a red backpack, which, just like his cap, has a matching white pokéball design on it.
History:
Austin was born on the outskirts of Starlight Town on a Mareep farm to a large family with roots lying in Johto. He had 2 older sisters, now aged 17 and 22, and later, his younger brother, now aged 14, was born. His parents divorced when he was young, and he hardly remembered his mother, save for the few times she visited. He often helped his father around on the farm with various tasks such as feeding the Mareep, or collecting the shedded fleece every summer. His life was thus pretty hectic with all of his schoolwork in addition to him helping around a lot on the farm. He befriended one particular Mareep easily, who one day, attempted to jump over the fence to escape from the farm. Austin was much impressed by the independent nature of the Mareep, and promised him he would show him the outside world someday.

From that day on, he spent most of his time playing with the Mareep, whom he later nicknamed Jumbuck for his sometimes stubborn behaviour, which he only appreciated more and more. Austin often had arguments with his father, who was fiercely loyal to his Johto roots, and awaited the day that team Stellar would rise again. When rumour came in that they did, Austin acted quick. To avoid being forced by his father to join them once he would be of age, he fell back to the promise he made to Jumbuck to show him the world. He He only briefly stopped by to tell the news. His father was not surprisingly very unhappy with this news, but reluctantly allowed him to go anyway.
Starter: A male Mareep nicknamed Jumbuck

I hope everything is hereby adequate.

I would like to reserve a trainer spot!

Also, when you say 'psudo-legendary,' do you mean Riolu as well? I want my person to have a Riolu.

pseudo-legendary Pokemon are Pokemon that are as strong as legendaries but they evolve and breed. There are six: Dragonite, Hydreigon, Metagross, Garchomp, Tyranitar, and Salamence. I'm pretty sure the GM will let you use Riolu, as I was thinking of using Mienfoo as my starter. But it evolves late soooo...I'm rethinking my starter as of this moment.

Speaking of which. I'll have my SU up by tonight. Taking a bit longer than usual. lol

ACTUALLY I HAVE IT DONE.

Welcome to the Saann Region! Please fill up the form below to get your trainer's card.

Name: Alannah Dubois
Age: 15
Hometown: Icirrus City, Unova
Personality: Alannah is very quiet. She has a very lonerish personality, but she has a few close friends at school. Socializing, going out, and hanging out weren't really her things to do. She would rather stay home and read her favorite mystery novels. Her father is strict, he expects her to be good at school, and keep up with her studies. Many of the novels she had read were about Pokemon. Her friends had labeled her "geek" because of her common use of reading glasses in class.
When Alannah is around her friends, people, and her father, she is sympathetic, kind, and talkative. She is also humorous and likes to crack a joke every now and then. She has another side of her though...a competitive side of her. She likes to win at everything, and her goal is to win the Saann League. Her father never got the chance to win a league, so it was up to Alannah fulfill his dream.

Appearance: Alannah is a punk rocker. She prefers black T-shirts, blue jeans, and converse shoes. Rock music has been her main interest at first, before her main interest in Pokemon came along when she turned 14. Her dad didn't approve her style. She always carries a black messenger bag with with a picture of a Charizard. It was a gift from her grandmother.
She is thin, light-brown skinned. She likes to soak up the sun everyday to get a perfect tan, but the sun in Icirrus wasn't as bright. The only part that isn't "punk" about her is her hair. Dark brown, with purple highlights. The hair is mid-length on the back, but it is up to her shoulders when tied up as a ponytail. She has green eyes.

History: Alannah was born in Johto. Her parents got divorced when she was three, and by that she was raised by her father in Icirrus City. She is an only child. Her father is a Pokemon doctor assisting Nurse Joy at the Pokemon Center, so there was some Pokemon exposure with him. Only problem is...Alannah hasn't had any Pokemon experience. Her father depended on her and her studies.
By the time she turned 14, Alannah told her father that she wanted to travel around the Unova region to compete in the Unova Pokemon League. He rejected her request due to her poor grades in school. She hated school. All she wanted to do is to travel the world like every other kid in the Pokemon world, and meet different kinds of Pokemon...just like her father when he was her age.
A year later, and at turning 15, Alannah got back on track with her studies, and got straight A's in every subject. On her 15th birthday, she asked her father if she could go explore the Unova region to compete in the league. Gratefully, he had granted permission. But it's not the Unova League she will be competing for. Her father encouraged her to compete in the Saann League, where there will be a special league opening.

Your SU is accepted! Remember though that you have to capture your Pokemon on the lab grounds in Sunflower Town. Also, you should atleast have an RP sample. You can do it on the spot or copy one from other RPs that you joined. Make sure, it has details of the RP, character, etc.

I would like to reserve a trainer spot!

Also, when you say 'psudo-legendary,' do you mean Riolu as well? I want my person to have a Riolu.

It is okay that you have a Riolu as a starter. Just remember that you have to capture it... Also you are reserved. You got 48 hours.

I must have read over the part where it said that the pokémon must be captured on the lab grounds in Sunflower Town. If it's best, I could try to change the SU a bit to fix it, since I won't know how to otherwise set that right later on, or I could work something out, depending on whether that would be allowed.

I was thinking of something along the lines of the Mareep slipping onto the lab grounds, with my character then attempting to catch him as normal. Given that he has zero battling experience anyway, it wouldn't necessarily give me an advantage.

Well, either that, or I could just think of a completely different story, either way you think is best.

Anyway, as for the RP sample. I am not quite sure exactly what you would want to see, but I suppose this would suffice. It's from an earlier RP I've done already:
Namely this one: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showpost.php?p=7122784&postcount=1
Character details for said sample: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showpost.php?p=7109980&postcount=18
Sample: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showpost.php?p=7149825&postcount=20

I think that's pretty much all that was asked of me.
