The Pokemon Trainer Academy (OOC) (NEW!)

[Nideous]

Howdy all. I have reurned, yet again. Good news is that I'm back for good now. If I've still got my spot, then I'd like to pop back in. If not, please resrve me the last Suicune spot.

[PkMnTrainer Yellow]

@Nideous: As I totally just pointed out in the RPD, yes you still have your spot. Welcome back! I was wondering when you would return. I hope thi time you'll be around for a nice long time. |P

[Nideous]

Well, seeing as how I'm out on my own and paying for net myself I should be. And I just noticed you said that. It's good to be back, now I need to think of a clever way to reinsert Drake and Bri into the RP. I'm dropping Quin altogether.

[PkMnTrainer Yellow]

@Nideous: Well look at you!~ I'm glad to hear it. It's always a crying shame when veteran RPers leave. I still miss SelenaStar constantly. It's currently Thanksgiving in the RP. I thought you should know that. Time passes slow-as-whatever in the RP. I'm still playing Valorie, whom Drake has cemented a permanent place in her thoughts and still wears that half-cape. I honestly forget what else you might have missed that you might want to know.

[Nideous]

lol, really? x3 Well, I know how to bring Drake back. After his encounter with Val he went home to get a few things and it took him that long to get back. He also is battling again thanks to her. He might be slightly different than the defeated trainer he was last time. And thanks for telling me the RP time. I appreciate it. And SelenaStar was cool.

[PkMnTrainer Yellow]

@Nideous: Mmhm~ I decided to integrate holidays, which due to how slow days pass required a bit of... convenience. Therefore holidays happen almost every other day or every couple of days depending on the actual timegap. I was just considering granting teachers a free 5-10 levels (Via raising the starting level) which would add onto whatever he already had (I can't remember if you put Drake's levels in the etherpad. We had the etherpad before you left right? If not, it's on the first page of the OOC and also here: https://etherpad.mozilla.org/KJyhsAn91g )

I'd certainly like them to meet up sometime.

[Nideous]

No I didn't put them in. But I've been keeping track of them myself and posting them everytime they level up. Either way, once I find my old notes I'll be back in business. And I would love them to meet up soon. x3

[PkMnTrainer Yellow]

@Nideous: We don't post them in the OOC anymore because it caused flooding and senselessly placed the work on my shoulders to go put them in via PC's laggy post edit feature. ^^; Valorie is currently in the academy's main office with her mother and a group of other students consisting of, if I'm not mistaken, Mark (Megaman765) and Kilik. She also has WolfOfEve's character Kiyoko in her posession, PTA's only non-human main character. (A zorua)

[Nideous]

Well, my comp lags a lot. Would you mind if I kept track of it myself, and put it in my sig or something? I don't want to add anymore on you, but I don't think I can use etherpad.

[EQUALSGAMER]

[Nideous]

Awesome. Can't wait to rejoin. I'll post probably soon. Not sure when though. x3
any other free levels I should know about for Drake and Bri and their teams?

Equals, I appreciate that you are new, so let me just tell you that your SU needs quite a bit of work. Let me find that thread I refer all newcomers to for you, ok? It'll give you some tips on how to make it better. And welcome to the world of RPs. I hope you enjoy them.

Edit: I believe this is it: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=287790

[PkMnTrainer Yellow]

@Nideous: Very well... do it how you need to. Also, look at you, stepping up to the plate? I think I'll just go ahead and say you're right and let you do your thing.

[Nideous]

I will, no worries. And you already said I could come back. And what do you mean, say I'm right and let me do my own thing? Are you talking about Equal? I always try and guide newcomers like that. x3 Anyways... I'm confused now.

[pat20cool]

I would write more tonight, but I've had a busy week. And I'm going to my Ex-Girlfriends Formal/Prom. Let's see how this goes!

Woo, special~!

Anyways, I had made Kiyoko ask a pretty odd question.

[OrangeNess]

Sorry it took a while, thanks Megaman!

[danaxe]

Wooohoooo I re-did my post
Am I accepted yet?

[PkMnTrainer Yellow]

Here is Dranaxe SU, since editing a 2 week old post and making us search for it instead of just posting it is a real pain.

Nickname (Optional):azurdly

Age (10-15):14

Sex (Male or Female):male

Dorm (Raikou Dorm, Entei Dorm or Suicune Dorm):suicune


Appearance (A picture can be provided instead of a description if you so wish): Like this but with darker hair and a scar down his right cheek.

Personality (How does your character act and react to others? Their mental state? Flaws and/or personal weaknesses?): Although having a serious side, azur loves to help people. However he can be too helpful, and that led him to believe he was a failure in life. After he regained his confidence he went on to become an intelligent boy, although he can be a bit boastful at times. He is always optimistic and very friendly. He likes to battle and always rewards his Pokémon after a battle, win or lose.

History (Where did your character grow up? Who did they grow up with? What have the been doing before this? Any noteworthy events? What brought them to the academy?): azur was born in the jhoto region but quickly migrated to hoenn where he befriended a metang by rescuing it from an abandoned part of machinery, soon after he found metang; he was 10 and was given some pokeballs, so he caught metang. A year later, they emigrated to unova by ferry, where a lone zangoose found its way into one of azur's pokeballs after mistaking azur for a person who saved him from a gang of seviper. Arriving in unova, and shocked by his new Pokémon, he befriended a joltick, who he soon caught. Then his parents split up and he was put into foster care, until he ran away, tracked down his mother and lived with her for a while. Finding out his mother had a criminal record was life changing, he ran away from her, and slept rough at the Castelia harbour. He awoke on a boat to the Pokémon trainer academy.

Erm... your SU dosn't seem to have much changes and it still has the problems previously stated. you SU is a few lines short still and I still find it not that believeable that a Zangoose of all things "found their way" into his Pokeball like that. That just isn't how it works.

[ShinyDiamond]

@Megaman765: I've included Mark in my post. xD I think you'll find my post intriguing!

[danaxe]

actuaally think of may's skitty.

so yes it was logical

[Jbsundown]

I've been away for a while. But I hope to be back now! :D

@All in Ryan's first class; I'm going to mark your character's quizes and then they will be sent to you from Ryan's Charizard!

[PkMnTrainer Yellow]

@Danaxe: Alright... first of all from a quick look at May's wiki page I can determine that her skitty did not in fact simply "find it's way into" her pokeball. Now, if I can check your facts with a simple google search, what's stopping you from doing the same?

I don't have quality standards to be mean; I have quality standards to keep the roleplay healthy and enjoyable for it's RPers! A roleplay where anyone can /literally/ do anything they want inevitably results in the quality of RP dropping and RPers trolling eachother. Pokemon literally walking their ways into pokeballs all herp-de-derp? That's pretty mary suish. Pokemon BW2 finally gave us a clear answer to the conflict of humans owning pokemon and that was that pokemon are more often than not happy to serve humans either way, but as a rule of thumb would rather do so outside of a pokeball given the choice.

That being said, second of all... Why would you sit there and listen to us tell you what needs improving, tell us you're going to improve it, and then change a bunch of stuff in your SUs except the actual things we pointed out as problems? I'm a very forgiving person, but if you're just going to disregard what I say then perhaps your time would be better spent finding and joining an RP where the GM doesn't care as much about it's RPers :l


@Everyone: A hurricane kind of wiped out my net. I hope to be back online soon enough.
