"T-thanks, I guess?"

No, but I think my first post came out pretty well and it can only get better from here, based on some behind-the-schemes plotting I've got going on. This'll definitely be a fun journey.

Very sorry to have been away so long, everyone. I was suddenly kinda swamped with work, but I'm back now, so let's get this show back on the road (:

Arthur's in-need of GM assistance!

Of course! Arthur's capture of Mankey was a success. I was quite impressed with the way you managed to write out a battle without any attacking moves indeed.

Is this rp still accepting?

I'm planning on joining soon, cuz this looks fun~!

Hello! I'm sorry it took so long for me to reply, but yes, this RP is still accepting! There's two more spots currently, and I'd love for them to be filled up, so feel free to write an SU.

Oh, hey, awesome, you're back!

Glad you liked what I did in my post! In my next one, Arthur will become more acquainted to his new Mankey.

Name: Oakley Brumble

Age: 15

Gender: Female

Hometown: A ranch in the countryside of Kanto

Appearance: (THIS IS AN OLD IMAGE I MADE! ONLY THE APPEARANCE IS RELEVENT!)
oakly_trainer_card.jpg

Oakley is short but lanky individual with shaggy strawberry blonde hair which goes to her shoulders and bangs that fall over her eyes. Her eyes are a piercing yellow like a hawk. She has a number of scars along her arms and chest from a situation involving Vigoroth. Due to her upbringing, she has particularly bad hygiene, which is something she commonly gets teased about.

Personality: Pros:
Loyalty: Oakley is extremely loyal to any friends she makes and will always stay by them and offer her help, however this could have a downside as she can react badly to people who lie or betray her.
Knowledge: Growing up on a ranch, Oakley does have quite a firm knowledge about Pokemon, particularly Fire Types which her grandfather specialised when he was a gym leader.
Sense of humour: Oakley is fine with harmless teasing and is always up for a good laugh. She will crack one-liners when she gets the chance and takes most things in good humour, though like everyone, she does have her limits.
Friendly: Oak is a very approachable person who is often willing to meet new people and she doesn't like seeing people sad, afraid or not having fun and will take it upon herself to make them feel better.

Cons:
Obliviousness: While nowhere near stupid, Oakley does have some dim moments and is easily distracted or tends to zone out, which can cause her to miss important things. A lot of the time, she is often unaware of what is going on and thinking about other things.
Laziness: Oakley loves sleeping and has a habit of sleeping in a lot or, if she is sitting in one place for too long, she will tend to nod off. She can be reluctant to do any work or travelling but will go along with it after some persuasion.
Big eater: That is a complete understatement. If there is one thing Oakley loves more than Pokemon and sleeping, its food. She has a particular fondness for junk food and hates vegetables and when she has access to food she really stuffs herself and Arceus help you if you take her meal from under her nose. Depending on the situation, Oakley will often find food more interesting than anything going on around her and will get upset if she doesn't eat for some time.
Very poor hygiene: Due to working for long periods of time on the ranch with her parents as well as her tendency to oversleep, Oakley would often either forget to or not have time to have a bath and this eventually became a habit, even after she left for her journey. She also has a fear of water which doesn't do her any favours.
No Goal: Oakley worries terribly since she really doesn't know what she wants to do with herself or where she wants to go in life. She doesn't like talking about it and will keep it to herself unless it is pried out of her.

Background: Oakley lived on the ranch with her mother, father and grandfather.
Oakley is very close to her father, Selix and is eager to please him. She worked alongside him in the ranch and it is Selix who had given her Blue Flash, her Ponyta when she was 10. Though he does love his daughter and encourages her to expand her talents, he is easily frustrated by Oakley's laziness and occasional obliviousness. He was the one to encourage her to go on a journey, hoping for her to grow.
Juniper, her mother, was a lot more concerned. She was a shopkeeper, as well as a ranch worker and is a very hard working woman. She does worry about Oakley when she is away, concerned that she will get into trouble. However, she does understand that her daughter needs this and encourages her. Oakley is extremely close to Juniper and can become homesick when thinking about her. Oakley worries relentlessly about her grandfather, Suber, who was very ill when she left for her journey. He taught her how to look after Pokemon and even taught her the basics of catching them. He was once a Gym Leader before retiring to the countryside where he built up the ranch with Juniper, his daughter. Having grown up on a ranch for the majority of her life, Oakley doesn't really know what she wants in life. The only real reason for her going on this journey was for her to travel and learn more about the world, she is unsure as to what she actually wants to get out of this trip. This puts a huge strain on Oakley emotionally which causes her to sometimes shut herself away from people and not open up. However, Oakley is extremely interested in learning about the world of Pokemon and what it holds.

Name: Robert Moss

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Hometown: Goldenrod City

Appearance:
Spoiler:

Personality:
Robert is, for the most part, quiet and nonchalant. He prides himself on his ability to appear cool or composed outwardly, despite whatever doubt or alarm may be going through his mind. Sometimes, of course, this 'coolness' can cause him to appear cold to other people, and with his responsibilities back home, helping his father establish his business, Rob's reputation has become that of 'the perennial new guy'.​
Strengths:
  • Collected - As stated above, Robert is always cool and collected, whether or not it takes any effort to be in this mindset. This allows him to look at the situations he gets into from a practical viewpoint, and makes him an able problem-solver, and a good tactician.
  • Knowledgable - Robert's father was a fairly renown breeder in Goldenrod City, but he lost most of his clients (naturally) when he moved his business to Viridian City. Lacking proper aid, funds, and installations, it became Rob and his brothers' responsibility to help their dad with business, so Rob knows a lot more about Pokémon than many of his peers.
  • Willful - Inspired by the exploit of his (and every other kid's) hero, Red, Rob (despite his practical mindset) glorifies the concept of willpower, and pushes himself and his Pokémon to become the very best version of themselves they can be, so as to never have a need to give up.
Weaknesses
  • Distant - Rob's coolness (or coldness), can make him seem distant, and can, in turn, make the world seem distant to him. Thus, he rarely goes out of his way to meet people or make friends, and he can have a hard time welling up the courage to talk to a pretty girl.
  • Arrogant - More than distant, Rob can sometimes have a nasty better-than-thou attitude, stemming from his lack (or need) of friends, and his above average knowledge of all things Pokémon. Though Rob may say there is nothing wrong with being proud of oneself, it is his tendency to communicate this pride that turns him arrogant.
  • Willful - As stated above, Rob's willfulness is a product of his admiration for Red, and more of an artificial state than a natural one. Thus, when Rob has decided to do things one way, and they're not happening as predicted, he can become completely stubborn and one-track minded in his approach, completely negating two of his strengths in favor of the 'bash the door down' approach.

Background:
Robert, who prefers to be called 'Rob', was born in the bustling metropolis that is Goldenrod City, the commercial capital of the Johto region. His family consists of his father Edward, a highly-touted breeder in Johto, his mother Kaitlyn, and his younger siblings, John and Brandon. They moved from Goldenrod to Viridian City in Kanto so as to escape Team Rocket's rampant corruption and control of the city of Goldenrod, only for Giovanni, the Viridian City Gym Leader, to be unmasked as the Team Rocket leader a scant few months following their move. However, they were nevertheless able to establish themselves within the community.

Although Robert's parents (his father, particularly) have been adamant in pushing him and his siblings to enter the breeding business (and despite the fact that Pokémon breeding has been Rob's life), Robert dreams of journeying as a Pokémon trainer, taking on the Gym Challenge, and becoming a Pokémon Champion in the likeness of the now legendary Red. Thus, he has taken his loyal pet and companion, Princess, and registered as an official Pokémon trainer.​

Hello! Thanks for you SU. I've read it over and everything looks alright to me, except Blue Flash's moveset; Flare Blitz is not one of Ponyta's egg moves. Instead of Flare Blitz, you could pick either Ally Switch, Captivate, Charm, Double-Edge, Double Kick, Horn Drill, Hypnosis, Low Kick, Morning Sun, or Thrash. If you just make that little change, I'll allow you in!


Hi! Thanks for signing up. I like your character a lot too, but similar to the previous applicant I'm a little worried about your Pokémon's moveset. The elemental fangs are listed as being learned by Snubbul at level 1, but this is by Move Tutor - they're not naturally there. Still to give you some leeway, I'll allow you to keep one of the elemental fangs in addition to Crunch as an egg move, if you want to. Otherwise I think your starter would be kinda overpowered in comparison to the others :/

Ahaha, darn looks like I'm too late.

If you want, you can still write up an SU and I'll look it over. If it's good enough, I don't mind letting just one more person join the RP really.

After this, sign-ups will be closed however.

No problem! I'll switch it out with Low Kick. Thanks :3

Oh, right! I didn't realize that when I made the SU, but I did think it was weird (I've never actually used Snubbul in-game, only the TCG.

I'll change the moveset, thanks for the heads up, and thanks for accepting me! ^^

Thanks guys! With this I feel comfortable accepting the both of you. I'll add you both to the OP, so feel free to start posting. You'll start in Viridian City, so you can pick up any of the events going on there. Please use this thread to specify which you'll take on so you can coordinate meet-ups and whatnot if you want to.

Also, I'll allow anyone who has expressed interest previously to still sign up. I won't be admitting many more people though, so if you plan on it, please do so soon.

Yay! Thank you! :pink_boogie: Are most of the characters in Viridian City right now or elsewhere? Think Oakley would be better iterating with others rather than being alone.

Everyone should be in Viridian right now, but their exact location depends on which event they took. I recommend at least reading everyone's last IC post to see where they left off before you start yours (:

Name: Althea Lumen
Age: 13
Gender: Female
Hometown: Viridian City
Appearance:
Spoiler:

Althea has cream colored skin, blue eyes, and stands at a height of 5'3".
She wears simple white slip-on shoes and has a black side-strap bag.

Personality: Althea is a cheerful and caring girl. She loves to read and hum, feels compelled to help others, and absolutely loves Pokémon. She also loves the colors black and white.
.... She also likes puns.
Pros:
+ Althea is very caring and loves to help others.
+ Althea is very knowledgeable, due to reading a lot.
+ She is very friendly and is willing to make friends with most.
Cons:
- Althea is rather trusting of others, which isn't that bad until someone takes advantage that trust.
- She is very sensitive emotionally. It's easy to make her cry, and if angered, she practically explodes.
- Althea is nowhere near athletic, so she usually has to pace herself, or else she'll tire out quickly.

Background:
Ever since she was little, Althea loved Pokémon. This love was greatly helped by the fact that her parents had once been trainers when they were younger. She would often ask her parents about everything, and would play with their Pokémon.
As she got older and developed a passion for reading, she began reading many books on Pokémon and Pokémon mythology, becoming well versed in her Pokémon knowledge.
When she was 12, her parents brought her a Pokémon who would become her best friend; Trix the Mawile.
A year later, she set out on a journey to explore the region, as her parents once had.
Starter Pokémon: Mawile (Trix)
Gender: Female
Nature: Adamant
Ability: Intimidate
Moveset:
- Sucker Punch (Egg)
- Iron Head
- Fake Tears
- Bite

Other: Trix has a pendant with a fake Mawilite-like marble. Althea and Trix know it has absolutely no effect, but just like how it looks. (No, there won't be a "turns out it's real" twist.)
