Jimmies were rustled,
Feels were felt,
and
Gary Oak slapped a *****.

Well, where's his dating video?

His mother always told him to look at the bright side of everything which ended up giving him his happy attitude. He strives to one day battle his father and defeat him. He was always fond of the Pokemon Scyther as it's name his similar to his. His dad also had a Scizor. His first pokemon was a Scyther he found abandoned. It was the first one he had ever seen in his own eyes and was scared of it. He tried to talk to it and he saw the pain in the Scyther's eyes. Scyther joined him and he began to catch other pokemon. He knew he finally had a chance at his dream coming true. Scyther, who he would name Sly, became his best friend. When he was 12, his mom died in a car crash.

@wolfofeve:

@imevil: Hmmm... two things. Your character requires a name, unless you give proper justification for him not having one in his history. D; The other thing is that pokemon do not simply "join" someone's team. I'm going to need to request an appropriate and fitting explanation of why such an unusual thing happened if you plan on going that route, else you could simply have him catch his pokemon like a normal trainer.

[IceFyr1928]

@WolfofEve: Meme style... Said like a true troll.

@Yellow: think I might be making my second student now. Maybe a teacher. It goes as it goes...

[jasonwolf]

wow you guys are nerds.

now anyway...

@everyone:


PETA has declared war on Pokemone all of you we must destroy the People Exterminating Trapped Animals group!!!!

[ShinyDiamond]

@Wolf: None of your characters are even female! I wouldn't make a dating video of Kilik, not unless I was cosplaying.

[PkMnTrainer Yellow]

D< Dangit guys. If you're going to post images, at least resize them so that they don't flood the entire screen. <<;

@Icefyr: You can do either. You're allowed to have up to 2 students and up to 1 teacher at any time.


@Jasonwolf: It's a conspiracy to bring attention to audino abuse :U In other news, Pokemon BW2 is awesome. So far I've become a movie star and become the owner of a mall. How am I ever going to evolve my Pignite if they keep throwing interesting mini-games at me?? Regardless, my playthrough of this game may influence a few things. Namely, a teacher or two might get added.

[Mick Fizz]

Technically, PETA should have no business around Pokémon since they're Pokémon, not animals. And it reminds me of one of the first South Park episodes I ever saw. The "Vote or Die" one.

Alright Ill fix the "JOIN" thing, but is the gift ok. Because in games you are usually gifted your first pokemon. And I read nickname as character name for some reson.
And IK i should have elaborated this, but the Scyther was abused and he was the first "kind" human towards him, Scyther felt love for him and joined him... if that's k for you

[IceFyr1928]

@WolfofEve:


Trolololol...

[ShinyDiamond]

@Yellow: ;; Sorry.

@Wolf: It's okay if Kiyoko didn't take notice of Kilik. He was quiet anyway. xD I'm joking about the pic, Lol!

Hey no spoilers!!! I don't have money for the game.

[IceFyr1928]

Name: Steven Yew

Nickname: Yew

Age: 27

Sex: Male

Job: Pokemon Mythology

Appearance:


Personality: Calm and collected, Yew is what most would call an ideal teacher. However, once you get to knowing him, Yew is spontaneous, and acts a bit younger than he is. Yew is strict when it comes to punishment, but is reasonably lenient with his class otherwise. He loves engaging his students with fun activities and many field trips. Yew is occasionally outspoken when it comes to personal issues, and belives that friendship is the strongest force in existense.

History: Yew grew up on on one of the Orange Islands. He went to a school there, and one of his teachers greatly inspired him to become one himself. When he graduated, he was given a Kirlia, which he raised with much affection. Naming her Tetra, they went on a region-spanning adventure, on which they aquired Scizice. Finished in the Orange Islands, Yew went to the newly discovered Sinnoh region, becoming a champion. In Sinnoh, he met Luxray and Char. Char soon evolved, and Yew decided to travel to Hoenn. Traveling through the region, he met many trainers, and made many friends. While he was there, he found an interesting myth about the continental pokemon. One thing led to another, and he was soon involved with the study of all three of the legendaries. Soon after, he returned home and gave up his position as champion, and began studying Pokemon myths in immense detail. Many years later, Yew was still looking into these myths, especially those about the three Hoenn legendaries. He made many discoveries, and is an 'expert' in the field of study. He had just returned from a field study when he was requested to teach a history course at the school that he had long since graduated from. Accepting the job, Yew soon became a favorite to both students and coworkers. He taught for another two years, before getting a letter from an old friend that he had met at the Sinnoh Elite Four. Gary asked him to come teach at his new academy. Yew packed, and was on the first boat that would go to the island for a reasonable price.

Pokémon:

1)

Species:Gardevoir
Nickname: Tetra
Personality: Tetra is hardworking, and will do almost anything for Yew. She is funny, and will crack many jokes.

Lvl: 50
Moveset: Psychic; Hypnosis; Dream Eater; Psyshock; Light Screen; Recover

@IceFyr: Alright. Your app looks good so far. Could we have a good 70 words more of history though? It's a tad short as it stands currently. That's about it though!

[IceFyr1928]

YAY! All done! when do I get my first class?

[PkMnTrainer Yellow]

@IceFyr: In a month or two, when the next day finally comes. :U

Or rather, that's when you get (See: are asked to teach) a class. You can CHOOSE to teach students any time you please, simply by having your teacher character approach a student and start...well...spreading knowledge! As a teacher at the academy, you have a lot of freedom as to how you teach. So you can literally have your teacher just start lecturing a student in the hallway, or challenge a student to a battle in order to teach them that way.

But yeah. Structured traditional classes only occur once per day, and the day only started relatively recently, and days tend to move very slowly here. So. That ain't happening for a while and I'd have to heavily advise you don't wait for it. |D

Regardless. There is a list of accepted characters on the front page that is reasonably updated. I'd advise checking out a character you might like to interact with, sending their RPer a VM, figuring out where that character is, and then deciding whether to throw your teacher at them. c:



@ImEvil: Well, the issue is that pokemon joining their trainers voluntarily has become a cliche that I've been forced to crack down on due to overuse by putting the bar higher for getting away with it. A trainer battles wild pokemon to catch them because they want that trainer to prove they're worthy through a test of skill. Kindness is not a skill. So if you want to have it just up and join him instead of being given to him or catching it in a normal fashion then you're going to need to explain this whole abuse thing well enough that I can say you've earned the ability to get away with it.

Honestly, I'd recommend simply rewriting that part of your SU a bit so you don't have to deal with this. There's only one other cliche I'm currently cracking down on and that's non-psychic pokemon with telepathy/pokemon who verbally speak English.

[IceFyr1928]

Did anybody order a BETTER MAP?!?!?



;P

[PkMnTrainer Yellow]

@Ice: Hmm... it looks a bit nicer in some areas, but the icy plains and swamplands are simply confusing looking even for someone who knows where they're supposed to be. It's also difficult to distinguish the swamplands from the forests or the dead forest from the forests. They blend together.

That's why mine has a legend and is nice and bright. The map needs to be functional before it's pretty. =( I'm flattered that you decided to surprise us with this though. |D

[IceFyr1928]

well, it can be worked upon. this is a slightly smuged pencil drawing...

[WolfOfEve]

I'm sorry, but I just have to keep this one.

---

Anyways, Marin, Question for you, relating to this RP, but you gotta get on Facebook chat .__.

[IceFyr1928]

ROTFLMAO!!!!! That is hilarious!!!

[Megaman765]

Alright alright enough with the Memes. As fun as they are, I don't want a Mod to come in and clean everything up. Its happened before.

[WolfOfEve]

Alright, I said I'd do it and I have finally finished!

Yes, This was that "little something" I've been hand-crafting specially for PTA!
Go on, take a look!

Spoiler:

[ShinyDiamond]

@Wolf: That is a cool map! I'm gonna save it on my phone!

[OrangeNess]

@Wolf Best. Map. Ever. You did such a great job! I could never do that.
