Roleplay Information

Spoiler:

Background

It was twenty years ago when Scott had his dream. A dream of a beautiful empire, ruled by only the most powerful of trainers. Scott lived in Slateport for his whole life. Living on the ocean always made him wonder what was out there. However, he never had enough money to venture out. So, he became a Pokemon trainer instead, and challenged the Pokemon League. He was a revered trainer after a long journey with his Pokemon. He was ready to challenge the Elite Four themselves, but he disappeared one day...

The Story

Hoenn is a land of tropical weather and heavy mythology. The legends state that Pokemon created this land entirely. People created the gyms and Pokemon league of today. It is typical for a trainer, ranging anywhere from ten years old or older, to begin a journey with a faithful Pokemon. Becoming the champion is the ultimate goal of trainers, which they obtain status of by defeating the eight known gyms that are spread across the region. But, unknown to most trainers, there is an organization that is open only to those elite of the elite. The trainers that are invited to this organization not only have the most powerful Pokemon in the land, but their natural skills are also toned to the extreme. This organization is known as the TSF. This acronym is unknown to all except those who conquer this organization. Trainers that are invited by this organization are pitted against their surroundings in rigorous tests of seven categories; Ability, Spirit, Knowledge, Bravery, Tactics, Guts, and Luck. There have been many incidents where a trainer has not returned from a challenge.

The chosen people this year are to stay in a hotel in the center of the organization's land, known as the Hoenn Battle Frontier. They will each have to challenge several harrowing tests in the duration of their stay. One hundred trainers have been admitted to this frontier. Out of these, only one will be offered the position in a spot of the TSF. Good luck to the trainers, and their Pokemon.

Facilities:

Spoiler:

Battle Dome:

A tournament-like challenge is held here. Only seven may pass its demanding criteria. Those who lose a battle have a chance to rebuttle back into the tournament by defeating a loser of the same round. Those who pass aren't evaluated necessarily on winning, but how they plan a battle and how they execute tactics.

Battle Arena:

A knockout style contest where single Pokemon are pitted up against eachother to prove which one has the best Mind, Body, and Skill abilities. This challenge is a direct measure of the individual Pokemon's guts.

Battle Tower:

A continuous battling system that makes challengers battle in a neutral environment. The battles here determine the ability of the trainer to battle on even footing.

Battle Palace:

A challenge that bans the trainer from commanding the trainer in battle. Battles here determine the trust and spirit between Pokemon and Trainers.

Battle Factory:

A facility that rents out Pokemon for trainers to use against other rented Pokemon. This challenge indicates whether or not the trainer can adapt to the situation in an instant and if the trainer can strategize battles with Pokemon they have never used before.

Battle Pike:

A continuous challenge that determines the luck of the trainer. Trainers are trapped in a cave, and must get out. They may run into things such as wild Pokemon, angry trainers, or people who can heal their Pokemon. Those who have amazing fortune have a chance to battle a great trainer... though some may call it unlucky.

Battle Pyramid:

A dark and eerie challenge that demands the bravest notions from trainers. They must oppose both trainers and wild Pokemon of high skill level to reach the top, where they are awarded to leave.

Rules:

1. The obvious stuff, no Godmodding, Bunnying, etc.
2. All Sign-ups/posts must meet minimum requirements at the least. That means all posts must be at least 4 lines. If you can't get four lines into a post, then there must not be a reason in posting.
3. I hold the right to kick out any roleplayer out at any time (given that it's reasonable). If I kick you out, and you refuse to leave, I will report you. *First offenses will result in a warning, and second consecutive warning (within a week) or severe offense will result in removal from the roleplay.*
4. All assigned missions must be completed within the time frame given (almost always being Monday through Friday, but I'm not too strict. Sometimes things happen outside of the Internet that can't be helped).
5. You must be VERY active. It will literally test your dedication, writing, and punctual skills. Be prepared for a lot, here.
6. Do not complain that this is not following the games/anime/etc. I do realize this, and it's a totally different story. kthx

The 'Nitty-Gritty':

Spoiler:

Feel free to ask questions about anything you don't understand.

• Once every other week, an assignment will be issued to each roleplayer individually (meaning everyone will have to do something different).
• You must meet the deadline, or else you won't get battle points. I will try to keep timezones in mind if it comes down to it.
• Assignments will almost always consist of a Frontier facility challenge, but there may be other sorts of missions...
• Each roleplayer will receive Battle Points based on well they perform their task.
• More Points awarded means that the roleplayer did an outstanding job, low Points or no Points awarded usually means that it was incomplete or completed whilst breaking one or more of the rules.
• Awards are based on post quality, time frame/usage, and how well you stayed to the criteria of the roleplay (did your Pokemon act how they match in your Sign-up, etc.).
• Awards will be tallied in what I call the 'evaluation period,' which will take place between missions. During these times, the characters will be spending time in the hotel or around the frontier, building friendships and rivalries with others.
• New assignments will be posted in the OOC thread. A notification will appear in this thread when new assignments are issued. Awards will also be posted in the OOC thread.

[Legend]

Just wanted to put my sign up here as to not fill up the IC thread.

Name: Malic Ragel
Gender: Male
Age: 28

Appearance: Malic at a first impression is impressive, but only to a point. Standing at about 5"11, Malic sports a muscular body developed over the course of of nearly two decades of training. However, his muscles are more toned than bulky allowing him to have a high level of agility and speed on-top of his strength.

Examining his physical features, Malic's face is distinct for having almost child-like features. He has bright blue eyes that hide behind shaggy wholesome brown hair. His skin is fair with rosy cheeks that only small child would actually have. He remains clean-shaven to the best of his ability and his actual face has no real physical impurities other than a few cuts and bruises due to the natural environment and his intense training and a single scar running down from his forehead across his left eye down halfway through his cheek. This scar is a personal symbol for him and he sports it with a strange combination of pride and shame.

Malic's choice of clothing is what you would expect in a standard trainer, meaning they are practical, functional and far from pretty. First and foremost, his torso is covered by a black slim fit t-shirt with a dragon design on the front and back. For further protection from the elements, Malic wears a jacket with a black base color and red accents on the sleeves and shoulders adding some character to the coat. The symbol of the Blackthorn Gym Bade is placed in the mid-back of the jacket. Fingerless worn leather gloves protect his hands however they are partially ripped and are reaching the end of their days. His jeans are the the standard denim color with some fading, however they retain their blue luster. They are kept in position by a black leather belt with a Blackthorn Gym Badge custom made buckle. Malic's shoes are of the Vans design complete with a black and red design to match his famed jacket.

Malic, of course, wears his own share of accessories to further decorate his already custom design. The most distinct accessory is his sliver chain necklace with the Blackthorn City badge acting as a pendant. To compliment the necklace, Malic has a sliver loop earring on his right ear and a sliver ring on his left hand. Underneath his clothing, Malic invested in body art. He has a series of tribal tattoos running down from his neck to the his hands on both arms. His back contains a design featuring two dragons combating each other and his chest has a Phoenix roughly where his heart is.

Personality: Malic is a fiery, ambitious, reckless and energetic individual. Malic has high aspirations for himself with the goal of being the greatest Dragon type trainer the world has ever seen. With that in mind, one will realize that Malic is quite passionate about his goal to the point that his ambition blinds him. With a competitive edge to him, Malic has fought for his goal regularly and has become quite confident in his skills, to the point of being arrogant to a certain degree. Pride is an important ideal to Malic and strives to defend his own, taking any hits to his pride more severely than any physical wound.

In life, Malic is quite careless and reckless often leaping into action with little regard for his own life, preferring to live dangerously without regrets. He is a ball of energy and emotion, having frequent mood swings to the point of being borderline bipolar (he isn't, I assure you). He has quite the short temper and is easily frustrated but never becomes violent because of he does his best to remain calm and collected.

In terms of social interaction, Malic acts on the border of being immature. He packs childish energy and is extremely talkative and outgoing. He almost always speaks his mind and is honest to a fault, typically annoying people in the process. Malic lacks raw intelligence as his only education was how to raise and battle Pokemon and lacks basic common sense at the same time. This leads him to frequently assuming the role of the lovable idiot, lacking the critical thinking skills to make smart decisions and likely being the last person to understand a joke. This also leads Malic to being quite naive at times seeing the good in people and giving everyone the benefit of the doubt. However, he is an expert on the aspects of Pokemon and is typically up to date on the latest events in the world due to his tendency to constantly read the newspaper.

He is fiercely loyal to his comrades however and is capable of rising to the occasion if need be crediting the culture of Blackthorn for his heart and determination in times of need. Malic is a bit of a day dreamer and will zone out in times of peace, which becomes a major distraction during any sort of business. As a result, he typically needs someone to knock him back to earth.

Malic has a good heart, but he often takes it to the extreme. He has made it a habit to help people in their times of need but lacks the tact to do so in a reasonable manner. As such, chaos often uses when he does help resulting in frequent breaks in the law such as property damage, emotional trauma and steep bills (for Malic to pay). Despite his lack of respect for the law, it doesn't take away the fact that Malic is an idealist with a noble heart…even if it does cause trouble for others.

History: Born in the heart of Blackthorn City, Malic was raised by loving parents, his older brother and various members of the family on both sides. United, they were dubbed the Ragel Clan, which was known for a strange level of affinity for dragons that even high level Dragon trainers could not understand fully, to the point of extreme doubt. At an early age, Malic was exposed to the power of dragon Pokemon watching various training exercises between legends like Lance and Clair, but also sparring matches amongst the members of his clan. Experiencing these moments lit a fire in Malic's soul and fueled his desire, which up to this point wasn't sparked it, to become the greatest Dragon tamer of his generation.

At the age of 7, Malic begged his father for a Pokemon to help jump-start his quest. Normally these trainers either leave the town to receive their Pokemon from a licensed professional or go through a painful process to receive one from the higher ups of Blackthorn. These attainments of Pokemon usually occur between the ages of 10 to 14, however Malic's father found a loophole and immediately seized the opportunity. For Malic's 8th birthday, his father gave him a Pokemon from the distant region of "Hoenn". A Bagon to be precise. That gift was the beginning of a long history united by a shared passion.

For the next 6 years, Malic trained with Bagon in the most difficult of environments until they believed themselves to be ready for the outside world. Including epic rock climbs, survival contests and raw combat, the training brought these two to their limits. Upon Bagon's evolution into Shelgon, Malic believed himself ready for a continuation of their long journey. With a party set on the day before his departure, Malic left on a good note receiving many gifts and wishes. As a result of his confidence, Malic vowed not to return until he was proud of the man he became.

His first obstacle was the Johto and Kanto Leagues which became recently unified. While he only required 8 badges to enter the league, Malic with his typical youthful energy and optimism decided that the full 16 badges would be more challenging and serve as a better mark of his strength. For the next 2 years, Malic traveled the regions, taking his time and making sure to cover every last bit of the regions for training and experience. At the age of 16, Malic entered the league with a team similar to his current one. He placed fairly well, losing out in the final round to an up and coming trainer from Pallet Town. The defeat however hit Malic hard and he decided a quick escape would calm his nerves.

The new destination was Sinnoh, where he spent the next 6 years of his life. The years were full of intense training and hunting for the next components of his team. It was Sinnoh that his final team was constructed and it was in Sinnoh that he attained his highest levels of success. The diverse landscape served as his own personal gym and the competitive atmosphere fueled his training regime. In due time, he returned to the Pokemon League leaving as the victor of the tournament rounds only to combat the Elite Four and leave in defeat. While his second failure was not as surprising, it left a bad taste in his mouth.

Hoenn was the only region left the unconquered and much like Sinnoh, Malic spent the 6 most recent years in the heart of it. Instead of slowly progressively through the region, Malic rushed and attained the 8 badges as quickly as possible in order for him to spend the remainder of his 6 year tour in seclusion, in order to focus on training.

Pokemon Team:

Species: Salamence
Nickname: Mavis
Appearance: Mavis is larger than average Salamence, standing at a height rivaling his master's own respective height. His color scheme is slightly darker as well with his scales having a darker hue. Mavis also has a distinct scar across his face, similar in form to Malic's.
Personality: Mavis is similar to his master in that he is reckless, energetic and ambitious. Mavis enjoys the trill of battle and strives for victory in every battle. Mavis has the tendency to go overboard in battle due to his own violent nature. Mavis' arrogance exceeds that of his master and protects his pride with excessive ferocity. Salamence firmly believes he cannot be defeated in battle and this has lead to him underestimating his opponent. Mavis tends to be overprotective of Malic and values his friendship with Malic and his fellow Pokemon above all else. Loyalty is a strong value that Mavis treasures.
History: Mavis was acquired as a young Bagon by Malic as a gift from his father. The gift was the beginning of Mavis' journey to become a great trainer and the power of Mavis only fueled the fire of passion and ambition. Since then, Mavis has been at his side ready to protect his master, growing as his best friend and most trusted companion. They share the same goal and fighting on a regular basis has only solidified their goal into something resembling destiny. Mavis evolved into his final form near the end of Malic's tour of Kanto and was used intensely in Malic's tours of Sinnoh and Hoenn. He has gradually grown into a responsible member, a foil to that his master.
Moveset: Dragon Claw, Fly, Dragon Dance, Draco Meteor

Species: Kingdra
Nickname: None
Appearance: Kingdra's appearance is not the irregular in comparison to a standard member of its species. Its only notable difference its fins are slightly larger fins and smaller snout.
Personality: Kingdra has quickly made her mark as the most quiet member of the team to the point of freaking out the others. Kingdra is shy and avoids Pokemon "social events" as much as possible. Kingdra maintains stable working relationships with her fellow team members, but probably because she has to. Kingdra is slow to trust others outside of her immediate "family" and as such Kingdra examines others with discrimination. Kingdra is not overly emotional and compared to Mavis, she could be considered overly cautious.
History: It was in Cherrygrove that Malic and the Pokemon that would become Kingdra met. Young Malic was resting on the beach of Cherrygrove and a Horsea emerged from the water with a splash. Desperate to catch a Pokemon for the first time on his own, he engaged the Horsea in a brief battle. One toss of a Pokeball later. Horsea was captured.

Horsea was ripped from a peaceful lifestyle and it struggled at first to adjust to fighting frequently. Over time, Horsea adjusted and grew into a competent battler. It remained shy and it took time for Horsea to warm up to her new master and friend in Mavis. Horsea eventually evolved in Seadra and later through a trade with a fellow trainer, Kingdra. Since the evolutions, Kingdra as she was called at that point warmed up and adjusted to her life and was content with how her life ended up.
Move Set: Dragon Pulse, Surf, Brine, Dragon Dance

Species: Garchomp
Nickname: Agros
Appearance: Argos looks similar to other members of his species with the lone exception that he has many scars across his body and a chipped tooth.
Personality: Argos is the most aggressive member. He loves nothing more than to battle and more importantly win. Agros is not above fighting brutally or dirty. Like Mavis, he is not very cautious, though his recklessness borders more on stupidity than a personality flaw. Argos has a noticeably short temper and has a tendency to get impatient in battle and let his emotions take over.
History: Argos is one of the newest additions to the team. He was caught as a Gible during Malic's tour of duty in Sinnoh. Innocent till his capture, Argos immediately adjusted to his life, respecting Malic more than anything. He aimed to please his master and with an intense competitor such as Malic as a master, that appeasing behavior came in battle. As a result, Argos grew through battle and developed a natural instinct on the battlefield. A new drive was born and Argos fed off the energy that could only be found in battle. It was drive that lead to his growth and following evolutions. Argos, along with Mavis, have become the cornerstones of Malic's team.
Move Set: Dragon Rush, Earthquake, Crunch, Dragon Claw

Species: Milotic
Nickname: Aquarius
Appearance: Milotic looks a standard Milotic, though her hair-like fins are slightly darker than most and her "eyebrows" are longer than the standard Milotics.
Personality: Aquarius is very meek and docile. Aquarius avoids conflict whenever possible and does not enjoy fighting coming close to a pacifist. Aquarius is not the most confident but she tends to see yourself as more beautiful than others, being vain in that respect. Milotic is also an older Pokemon and as such is much wiser and significantly more calm and collected than her peers. Though that could be a result of Malic NOT raising her.
History: Aquarius is the only Pokemon on Malic's team that was not captured. Instead, Malic traded for it with a small girl who believed Malic could make best of Aquarius' abilities as an older Pokemon. Aquarius had difficultly adjusting to her new lifestyle with a new team, master and set of goals. Malic quickly learned that Aquarius did not enjoy battling as much and lacked that youthful energy his other Pokemon. To respond to this challenge, Malic managed her minutes and used her sparingly until Aquarius warmed up to Malic and the battling lifestyle she would endure in her twilight years. Aquarius has responded well in the past few years and she has found some comfort in battling.
Move Set: Aqua Ring, Surf, Dragon Tail, Mirror Coat

Species: Steelix
Nickname: Ironbred
Appearance: Ironbred looks like a standard Steelix. Except he is a inch shorter. Nothing big.
Personality: Ironbred is…boring. Ironbred does not a lot of depth to his character. He is stubborn, though, and can be a hassle to control. Due to his stubborn nature, Ironbred can be determined to a fault and accepting anything but his own desires does not compute with him. Aside from this, Ironbred is a Pokemon who battles, chills out for a bit and then heads back in his Pokeball.
History: Ironbred was caught as a wild Steelix during his tour of duty in Sinnoh. Much like Aquarius, he has not grown much in the literal sense as a fully evolved Pokemon, but as a partner Ironbred had few growing pains. Due to his rather neutral and plain personality, Ironbred fit in easily and adapted quickly to Mavis. A welcome addition to the team, Ironbred has become quite popular in the Mavis "locker room" and as such is used frequently in battle.
Move Set: Iron Tail, Earthquake, Bulldoze, Stone Edge

 

[Kogenta]

My sign-up is completed (I think). I modified Kaylin's history slightly to make the application more Frontier Brain oriented. If you want me to change anything, please tell me.

I will not be particularly active this weekend, but I should be online before Monday.

 

[Ponee]

So I assume that since there are Pokeballs listed as prizes that we can get more pokemon? ^-^ I mean, It's okay if we can't... that's just kinda what I though.

Oh I hope this role play will be good! (I'm almost positive it will be though)

 

[Beechlgz]

My sign-up is taking longer than expected, but it should be finished soon. I plan on finishing it in the morning, I'm going to bed now. I'm as far as writing about the second pokemon and since my character has a team of six, I'll only have four more to go after that.

EDIT:

Name: Jamie Bird
Gender: Male
Age: 14
Appearance: Jamie is quite petite and appears a bit under-developed for his age. He still has very childish facial features. It doesn't help that he's also quite skinny, with a thin scrawny neck and, when he wears shorts, thin ankles. His hair is scruffy and strawberry blond in colour and his eyes are brown, usually with ruffled, frowning eyebrows.


His choice of clothing is usually for the summer seeing as he's from the warm and tropical Hoenn. So, usually shorts and t-shirts in bright blues and greens. He also keeps a rain jacket rolled up in his backpack just in case.


Personality: Jamie is an annoying noob. That would be a sufficient summary of his character. He thinks he knows all there is to know about the world, about life, about birds and about pokemon when in fact his knowledge is from a very childish and limited perspective and he doesn't know a whole lot at all.


Jamie makes a lot of mistakes, but always finds a way to pin it on someone else. His arrogance has probably come about due to the fact he has gotten this far on a lot of wins and he likes to ignore the far more numerous losses he's endured. He does also have some good tactics up his sleeve, and is actually a pretty decent trainer who has a phenomenally strong bond with his pokemon – his birds are his best (ahem, only) friends. The reason he comes across as such a noob is because he thinks he's far grater than he really is.


In social situations, Jamie thinks he's charming, funny and the life of the party when he is anything but. He has an alarming talent for rubbing people up the wrong way or just irritating them beyond belief. The astonishing thing about this is that he appears oblivious to it. He continues to believe he's everybody's friend, which is kind of sad in a way. True, he does just want to be friends, but then he has to go and spoil it by having arguments, teasing and annoying people until they hate him, or making fun of people, putting them off him.


History: First of all I'll start with Jamie's background. Jamie was born into a large family where he was deprived of attention and picked on by his older siblings who inadvertently taught him how to pick on his own younger siblings. They were actually quite an upper class family of skilled pokemon trainers, so Jamie was not deprived of material possessions. It was the more important things – attention, love and social training that Jamie lacked.


The thing that set Jamie apart from the others was that he didn't really fight as hard for the attention that his siblings constantly fought over. His siblings struggled and tried their best to impress each other and their parents. Not Jamie – he tried a little, but gave up easily and resigned himself to being the "annoying one" in the family. This was because, from an early age, Jamie formed a bond with one of his first birthday presents and from then on felt less and less dependent on his family.


When Jamie and his siblings were one-year-old, they were all given a pokemon. It was not a very expensive or impressive pokemon, as it was supposed that as they got older they would be encouraged to catch their own. However, the pidgey Jamie was given became his soul mate. The pidgey's original name had been Quilin, but Jamie re-named him to Pom-Pom. Pom-Pom stopped responding to the name Quilin very quickly, indicating his preference to the more affectionate nickname given to him by his young master.


When Jamie became a pokemon trainer as all of his siblings did, his parents were sad to see Jamie go, but glad to see the back of what was to them an insufferable little flying rat of a pokemon. Pom-Pom had a huge part to play in Jamie's arrogance because he only encouraged it, always sticking up for Jamie and always teasing those who tried to show Jamie that he wasn't so hot. Pom-Pom frequently annoyed Jamies siblings.


On his journeys Jamie developed an interest in bird pokemon, quickly identifying himself as a bird keeper. He loved birds for their quirks and how they could be beautiful yet also cheeky and mischievous. From leaving his home in Rustboro City, Jamie's first capture was a young Taillow who he named Fork. At first Fork was shy, quiet and easily intimidated by Pom-Pom, but quickly opened up to the pidgey and his master. He soon learned to become as cheeky and obnoxious as his master and companion. He still remains the quietest of the party, though. Later he went on to acquire more bird pokemon and even a few non-bird flying types. He also soaked up as much information on birds as possible, mostly from library internet access.


The thing that set Jamie apart from the other bird keepers throughout his journey was that he successfully passed through the pokemon league right up to half-way through the elite four. His pokemon and himself formed a very resilient team and expressed their strong bond through their success in battle. For a trainer whose entire team was so unbalanced due to each of them being a flying type, this was beyond impressive and boosted his already inflated ego. It attracted some attention and if it weren't for his anti-magnetic character, he might have become a minor celebrity. Instead those who had expressed interest in him shrugged him off as an annoying, spoiled brat due to his obnoxious personality.


All except a mysterious organisation known only by the acronym TSF who invited him to Hoenn's Battle Frontier to take on their proposed challenge.






Species: Pidgeot
Nickname: Pom-Pom (just Pom most of the time)
Appearance: Pom has a shorter and puffier head crest of featers than pidgeots usually do. It doesn't trail behind him and instead puffs out and sticks up. He is also less sleak than typical pidgeots and his feathers have a downy texture.
Personality: Pom is a rascal that likes to taunt and tease his opponents. He is extremely overconfident and likes to be the centre of attention. From everyone else except Jamie he expects to be treated like royalty even when he is rude and cheeky to others. However when he and Jamie are together they are like soul-mates and see each other as equals. Jamie is the only person or pokemon that he doesn't see as below himself.
History: Pom was originally given to his master Jamie when the boy was one year old as a gift by his parents. Pom, then named Quilin, was expected to be nothing more than a training pokemon, common and unimpressive to spur Jamie on to catch something better by himself. Instead Jamie bonded with his pidgey and the two have been inseperable since. Jamie named Pom from the heart, and it stuck with Pom in preference to the obscure and frilly 'Quilin' Jamie's parents had named him.
Moveset: Whirlwind, Huricane, Pluck, U-Turn




Species: Swellow
Nickname: Fork
Appearance: Fork is more typical of a swellow without any real distinguishing features. Most notably, he is rather glossy and handsome and keeps himself well groomed. Hardly a feather is out of place.
Personality: Fork is far more quiet and aloof than the rest of the team, though he still has that proud and obnoxious streak that seems to have rubbed off Jamie and onto most of his pokemon. Fork is also very brave, and the one who is most likely to perform selfless acts of heroism – usually only for his master and his team, and not for anyone else.
History Fork was caught on Route 116. He put up a real fight and didn't relent until he finally tired out inside the pokeball. At first he was very sweet, shy, quiet and nervous. But over time, Pom and Jamie coaxed him out of his shell. As well as becoming a bit more outgoing, he also became a bit less sweet.
Moveset: Aerial Ace, Tailwind, Roost, Double Team


Species: Pelipper
Nickname: Crop
Appearance: She actually has a smaller pouch than most Pelippers do, making her a bit sleeker and more lightweight. That's not to say that she can't carry anything since her pouch is still very elastic.
Personality: Crop was trouble from the moment Jamie received her. She was a brute of a wingull, swooping and attacking anything and everything, even Jamie. Her primary motivator was food. She would steal food right out of children's hands and start battles with other pokemon over the smallest scraps meaning that Jamie couldn't keep her out in public. Now that she's a pelipper she has settled down a bit, but still has her moments.
History Crop was given to Jamie as an egg from the first time he visited the daycare and was one of Jamie's biggest tests. It was after hatching his wingull that Jamie really began to question his ability as a trainer, as there seemed to be no bond or teamwork between his team and his wingull. It was only after Crop evolved that she seemed to mature somewhat, but even to this day she still presents some challenges for Jamie.
Moveset: Fly, Surf, Sky Drop, Aqua Ring


Species: Scarmory
Nickname: Tang
Appearance: Tang has scratches and dents in his chest indicating some kind of traumatic battle in his history. What caused this is a mystery to Jamie, but it doesn't hinder Tang's performance in any way.
Personality: Tang is quiet and reserved, but not aloof like Fork is. Tang just prefers his solitude. He can be a little snappy and bitter towards the rest of his team. He sometimes quarrels with Pom, Crop and Fork due to his abrasive nature and gets along better with Scorp and Dubs since they give him his space and respect.
History Tang was caught on Route 113. He was already in poor condition when Jamie found him. His armour was rusty and brittle and his wing-tips were blunt, chipped and warped. He was malnourished, too. According to the nurse in Fallabor Pokemon Centre, he must have been like that for months and would most certainly have died if it weren't for Jamie rescuing him.
Moveset: Spikes, Steel Wing, Drill Peck, Swagger


Species: Glscor
Nickname: Scorp
Appearance: Unlike most gliscors, Scorp actually only has one point on his tail. This makes him resemble a scorpion a lot more than most gliscors do.
Personality: Despite gliscor's rather menacing and insane appearance, he is actually the only voice of reason in the group. He is the gentle and humble one, always apologising (the best a non-English speaking pokemon can do) for Jamie and his team's obnoxiousness and rudeness. He also attempts to calm them down when they get too over-the-top.
History Jamie met a trainer originally from Johto. During a conversation, the Johto trainer mentioned she was looking for a tropius but had to leave for Johto soon and hadn't been able to find one. She was very disappointed. Jamie, seeing an opportunity for a trade, offered his tropius if she had a flying pokemon. The trainer from Johto was over the moon and gave Jamie her gligar called Scorp in exchange. Jamie was disappointed at first that it wasn't some Johto-exclusive bird, but he soon realised the value of having a ground type in a team of all flying types.
Moveset: X-Scissor, Earthquake, Poison Tail, Swords Dance


Species: Dodrio
Nickname: Dubs
Appearance: Dubs has pink long head feathers instead of black.
Personality:As with most dodrios, squabbles break out between each of Dubs's three heads. However this can happen to such a degree that they have a very low awareness of their surroundings. The exception is when they're in battle. In battle, they are incredibly coordinated. Dubs can be quite mocking towards opponents during battle but it's all for fun. Outside battle they are actually quite friendly.
History Dubs was caught as a doduo in Hoenn's safari zone. She was the last addition to Jamie's team and is therefore the lowest level.
Moveset: Drill Peck, Roost, Tri Attack, Double Hit

*Still in progress*
I'm finished! Hope you like it :)
EDIT: I made the appearance section more detailed.

Name: Rina Hendrix
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Appearance: Rina has shoulder length pink hair (at the moment) that is kept out of her face by cute hairclips on either side of her head. She is average height for a girl her age, standing at a height of 5'6". Her eyes are a beautiful hazel colour and her skin is fair. Wherever she is, you will always find her sporting one of her many colours of Converse sneakers. Most often, though, she will be wearing her favourite purple ones. She wears dark denim jeans and a cool red blouse with white and black accents. She has affixed her Kanto gym badges to her belt, along with her four pokeballs, to remind herself of how she got to where she is now. She hopes to fill up the rest of her belt with the badges won from other regions. Right now, a couple Johto badges and one Hoenn badge rest on the back of it.
((Based off of Amu Hinamori from 'Shugo Chara': https://www.flickr.com/photos/amuletdia/3291520544/lightbox/))

Personality: Rina is a very bright girl who absolutely adores a challenge. Give her any excuse to try something new or push her limits even further and she will take it. Her hair seems to reflect her lifestyle; she often dyes it different colours or cuts it in different ways just to see if she can pull it off. She is very energetic and doesn't like to laze around doing nothing. She is very open and social when it comes to meeting new people and tries to make everyone feel comfortable. However, if she is nervous, Rina will begin to talk nonstop. She is a forgiving person, but if you do get on her bad side, she will likely stop speaking to you. She had a low tolerance for people who act like jerks.
History: Rina was born and raised in Viridian City. She has an older brother who works with Nurse Joy in the Pokemon Centre, and a younger sister who is currently training at the Pokemon Academy, soon to embark on her own adventure. Rina's parents encouraged her to start her pokemon journey when she was 10, and she couldn't have agreed more. She chose Squirtle as her starter pokemon and named him Poseidon, which means god of the sea. Together, they traveled across the Kanto Region, catching new pokemon and challenging the gym leaders in every city. Rina loved the life of a pokemon trainer. There was a new challenge to face every day. After a few years of training, she and her pokemon finally collected all eight Kanto gym badges and went to face the Pokemon League. They lost the first time, but Rina simply took that as another challenge to become stronger. Needless to say, she beat the Elite Four the next time round and then set off to collect even more badges from different regions. When she was in Hoenn, she received a letter from an organization known as the TSF, inviting her to compete in what sounded like the most intense battling competition of her life. She smiled and immediately started to make her way to their headquarters.

Pokemon Team

Species: Blastoise (M)
Nickname: Poseidon
Appearance: Poseidon has a small crack in his shell from a particularly nasty incident with a wild Gyarados. Other than that, he looks like your average Blastoise.
Personality: You could never meet a friendlier pokemon. Despite being very large and intimidating, Poseidon is actually a huge teddy bear. He greets everyone he meets with a big smile and loves to chat with other pokemon. In battle, however, he becomes very focused and serious. He is fiercely loyal to Rina and fights for her with all his strength.
History: Poseidon was Rina's first pokemon. He was given to her as a Squirtle by Prof. Oak when she was only 10 years old. They bonded very quickly, becoming the best of friends. They trained every day and were able to beat Brock and Misty pretty easily. Lt. Surge, however, was a different story. Even with the help of Zephyr, the battle was a close one. Rina would have lost if Poseidon had not evolved into Wartortle mid-battle, taking Raichu down with his newfound power. They continued to battle together, Poseidon never once leaving Rina's side. He evolved once again after defeating Blaine, becoming a powerful Blastoise capable of taking down any opposition.
Moveset: Hydro Pump, Flash Cannon, Surf, Iron Defense
Others: Torrent Ability

Species: Jolteon (F)
Nickname: Zephyr
Appearance: Zephyr is a bit smaller than the average Jolteon. Don't mistake this for a lack in power, though, or you'll get zapped.
Personality: Since Zephyr is so small, she is often mistaken for a pet instead of a battling pokemon. Because of this, she is always trying to prove herself to her peers. She is very proud and doesn't like to accept help from anyone. With people she trusts, she is very friendly and affectionate.
History: Rina met Zephyr while she was in Cerulean City. She was in the Pokemon Centre when someone brought in a stray Eevee who had fainted from hunger. Luckily, she happened to have a couple berries in her bag and gave them to the Eevee. It perked up and rubbed up against her happily. Rina decided to take her in and raise her to be an awesome battler just like Poseidon. While she was shopping in Celadon City, she found a Thunderstone and immediately knew she had to buy it. Rina evolved Zephyr right after leaving Celadon so they could get to work on practicing her new electric-type moves. Zephyr became an expert battler, and even bested Poseidon once... a fact which she will never let him forget.
Moveset: Thunderbolt, Discharge, Thunder Wave, Shadow Ball
Others: Volt Absorb Ability

Species: Arcanine (M)
Nickname: Tyson
Appearance: He has a scar over his right eye from being attacked by a wild Pidgeot protecting her young.
Personality: Tyson is always eager to battle, so much so that he sometimes goes out of his way to pick fights. Rina has tried to correct this behaviour, but she still hasn't succeeded completely... a large pokemon like Arcanine is not always easy to control. When he's not in a battle, he's right at Rina's side. He will follow her wherever she goes just like a little puppy.
History: Rina was training for her battle with Erika when she came upon a feisty Growlithe on Route 7. She saw its potential and caught it right away. At first, it was unhappy at being taken away from its home, but it grew to love traveling with Rina, Poseidon and Zephyr. Over time, he fell in love with the battling life. He even started bursting out of his pokeball to chase wild pokemon. One day, he was chasing a wild Pidgey when it's mother (Pidgeot) flew out of the sky and started attacking Tyson. Her claws scraped over his eye and made a permanent scar there. One would think he would have learned his lesson about picking fights after that, but no. Rina evolved him before facing the Elite Four using a Fire Stone she had gotten from gym leader Blaine.
Moveset: ExtremeSpeed, Flare Blitz, Flamethrower, Agility
Others: Intimidate Ability

Species: Krokorok (M)
Nickname: Dusty
Appearance: He has darker skin than most Krokorok, being more brown than tan coloured. His black stripes are the same as any other.
Personality: Dusty wants to maintain his cool at all times. He will not get overexcited or angry (except perhaps on very rare occasions). He is not really into battling, but he will fight when he is needed. He respects Rina enough to help her out when she calls. Tyson often gets on his nerves due to his constant enthusiasm for battle; won't he just chill out for a while? Dusty is very observant and notices everything around him. He has an excellent memory and is actually very smart, but he'll never show it. He doesn't want people to think he's bragging (which is very uncool).
History: While Rina was traveling in the Johto region, she met a man who had just returned from Unova and had pokemon to trade. She had never been to Unova before and was eager to see what kinds of pokemon lived there. She traded one of her recently-caught pokemon for an adorable looking Sandile, who she named Dusty. To Rina, he seemed rather uninterested in her and this new region he was in. In reality, Dusty was curious about everything but he just didn't want to seem uncool. Acting all excited and happy was not his style. He continued to feign disinterest and learned about this new region by watching and listening. Rina eventually caught on to his act, but didn't say anything. She didn't want to embarrass him. Dusty evolved a few days before their departure for Hoenn.
Moveset: Crunch, Earthquake, Rock Slide, Torment
Others: Moxie Ability

 

[Almondeyes]

Finished my character, now I just need to think up a team. Is it okay so far?

Name: Vanessa Lea Maxwell

Gender: Female

Age: 19

Appearance: Vanessa stands at a taller-than-average height of 6ft 2, and has long mahogany brown hair that reaches down to her hips. It's tied back in a characteristic low, loose ponytail, and on her head she wears a sophisticated black and grey tartan trilby hat with a red ribbon wrapped around it, and she has a matching ribbon holding her ponytail in place. Her steel grey eyes are covered by dark sunglasses with a black rim, and the arms of the glasses are studded with a basic diamonte pattern.

Her lean body is showed off to the maximum in the short white crop top that she wears, revealing a single piercing in her belly button and a 4 inch wide tattoo on her lower back of a sleek black panther pacing forwards. Over the shirt are multiple long red beaded necklaces that reach down to her middle, and a tartan patterned suit jacket of the average length. She's never seen out of her plain black skinny jeans that fade to grey towards the knees, and the white leather boots that she wears reach up to her knees easily. When in a formal situation her crop top is replaced by an ordinary length white tee shirt with a silver chains design in the center.

Personality: Vanessa is very aloof and quiet, choosing not to associate herself with those that she deems below her high standards. She is far from a push over, and won't allow anybody to tell her what to do or how to do it - in fact, she expects them to follow her orders. This mentality came from her many years as a team magma admin.

If, somehow, somebody does earn her respect, they have an incredibly loyal friend. When she has dropped her act of being aloof and distant, she is actually quite a warm person and fairly easy to get along with if you know the right things to say. However, she truly cannot stand immaturity and hates people who are outright *******s.

History: Vanessa grew up in Lilycove city, and born into a family of team magma members. Her mother was a high ranking admin, and her father was Maxie himself, the boss of the entire organisation. As such, she grew up with their ideals swirling around in her head and she honestly believed them.

At the tender age of 10, Vanessa first was initiated into team magma's ranks. Her and her partner Vulpix took on all of the challenges they faced within the group with passion and despite her young age quickly earned the older member's respect. She was a commander by the age of 12, and a fully fledged admin by 15. Her carreer was going well, and her newly evolved Ninetales was her closest companion.

However, team Magma hit a dead end. They had awakened the legendary pokemon Groudon, but had had their plans thwarted many times by a young teen who captured Groudon himself and released it somewhere secret, most likely somewhere in Johto. So on that truly disheartening note, team Magma broke up and Maxie disappeared to goodness knows where. So with nothing left but her saddened Ninetales, Vanessa left to challenge the pokemon league.

After obtaining a healthy team of 6 pokemon and defeating all of the gyms in Hoenn, Vanessa headed out to the pokemon league. On the way there however, she was stopped by a group of people from a secret organisation, inviting her to come and join their ranks. After a long time of mulling the idea over in her mind, she accepted and headed out to the island.

Others: (Anything else?) She had a brief love affair with Proton from team rocket (who at the time was hiding in Johto, waiting for team Rocket to re-establish), but it was over promptly after they found out that they were both part of a different villainous team.

My sincerest apologies about not updating yesterday, as Pokecommunity decided to not work. :X

Everyone who signed up, except Almondeyes (due to still working on the sign up) and tenthcompanion (a little more appearance would be nice, you can edit it still) has been accepted.

Finished my character, now I just need to think up a team. Is it okay so far?

Looks good. You have until tomorrow to finish your sign up.

EDIT:

So I assume that since there are Pokeballs listed as prizes that we can get more pokemon? ^-^ I mean, It's okay if we can't... that's just kinda what I though.

Oh I hope this role play will be good! (I'm almost positive it will be though)

Sorry, didn't mean to ignore you. There will be a point in time where Pokemon are available for catching.

Here's my completed SU:

Name: Vanessa Lea Greene

Gender: Female

Age: 19

Appearance: Vanessa stands at a taller-than-average height of 6ft 2, and has long mahogany brown hair that reaches down to her hips. It's tied back in a characteristic low, loose ponytail, and on her head she wears a sophisticated black and grey tartan trilby hat with a red ribbon wrapped around it, and she has a matching ribbon holding her ponytail in place.

When in a formal situation her crop top is replaced by an ordinary length white tee shirt and a long red cardigan.

Personality: Vanessa is very aloof and quiet, choosing not to associate herself with those that she deems below her high standards. She is far from a push over, and won't allow anybody to tell her what to do or how to do it - in fact, she expects them to follow her orders.

On the way there however, she was stopped by a group of people from a secret organisation, inviting her to come and join their ranks. After a long time of mulling the idea over in her mind, she accepted and headed out to the island.

Others: (Anything else?) She had a brief love affair with Proton from team rocket, but it was over promptly after they found out that they were both part of a different team.



Species: Ninetales

Nickname: Tsukiyomi (Suki)

Appearance: She's a slightly darker colour than ordinary Ninetales (think syrup or caramel), and the tips are pure white instead of red. Her eyes are more of an amber colour than red.

Personality: She's a sleek and serene character, not the type to freak out or get angry easily. She is somewhat vain and very self concious of herself and her teammates, and sometimes acts a little bit like a mother hen, towards Artemis especially.

History: Tsukiyomi was Vanessa's first pokemon, given to her by her father Maxie for her tenth birthday upon her initiation into team magma. From the moment that the two met they got along near perfectly - Suki's childlike innocence and calm disposition counterbalanced Vanessa's passionate yet aloof diposition. She evolved when Maxie gave Vanessa a fire stone when she was promoted to a commander.

Moveset: Heatwave, Ominous Wind, Energy Ball, Hypnosis

Others: She has a very close relationship both Vanessa and Artemis, but resents Skadi because of her obsession with trying to become Vanessa's favourite.


Species: Mandibuzz

Nickname: Skadi

Appearance: She is basically a normal Mandibuzz, but smaller than average without a bone skirt. Also, the paler grey feathers on her wings are the same colour as the ruff on her neck.

Personality: Skadi is a very possessive pokemon, and gets very jealous easily when somebody is getting more attention than her. She is hot headed and fiery, and has a slight crush on pretty much every male bird pokemon that she sees, she's very flirtatious.

History: She was first found by Vanessa as a chick when she had got lost during the great migration of her kind, ironically after following a Taillow and attempting to flirt with it. She was the third pokemon that Vanessa caught, Skadi was found straight after Vanessa 'caught' her second pokemon, Caillech.

Moveset: Mirror Move, Bone Rush, Dark Pulse, Air Slash

Others: She's incredibly jealous of Suki, who tends to get most of Vanessa's attention. She also seems to be jealous of Artemis, but gets along fairly well with him.


Species: Gabite

Nickname: Caillech

Appearance: Is perfectly ordinary apart from the eviolite pendant around it's neck.

Personality: He's a very cheerful pokemon, if not slightly rash, and absolutely loves to eat. He'll stuff himself with pretty much whatever he can get his claws on - including trash most commonly. Despite his - quirks, however, he is a very solid battler and won't give in without a solid fight, and often tends to hit incredibly hard and fast, but misses a lot too.

History: He was the first pokemon other that Suki to be 'caught' by Vanessa, but he wasn't technically 'caught'. He was actually stolen from a sleeping trainer on the edge of route 109 and told that he was traded, and his trainer didn't even consult him.

Moveset: Dragon Rush, Earthquake, Flamethrower, Shadow Claw

Others: He's pretty neutral on what he thinks of the other team members, he gets along with most of them really well.


Species: Scizor

Nickname: Artemis

Appearance: Just your average Scizor, if anything is particular about him he has slightly longer spikes on his head than ordinary Scizor.

Personality: He's young and happy go lucky, if not slightly naive and childlike. He'd rather flee than battle, but he will battle if neccessary and will do anything to protect his 'mother' Vanessa, and if she's in danger he drops his childlike attitude immediately.

History: Vanessa found him as an egg abandoned on the side of a road somewhere in the countryside of Hoenn, and had no idea what was in his egg. When it finally hatched, Vanessa had no idea of what he was and almost considered abandoning him, until she looked into his childlike eyes and fell in love with him. Ever since then he has always thought of Vanessa as his mother.

Moveset: Agility, Swords Dance, X-Scissor, Iron Head

Others: He can speak full english, albeit with some trouble with grammar, because he didn't grow up with much contact to pokemon. He doesn't particularly get along with Salvadore because he finds him bossy, and he just plain doesn't like him.


Species: Milotic

Nickname: Salvadore

Appearance: An unusual male Milotic, he has blue antenna and bright golden eyes. The fan on the tip of his tail has gold on it instead of pink, and he has a golden band around his neck with a bright blue sapphire in the center.

Personality: He is very dignified and proud, and dislikes battling somewhat. He spends most of his time relaxing and making the local water type pokemon in the area do his bidding. He's somewhat spoilt due to his childhood of being a leader of a Feebas clan, and he wasn't very happy when he was caught.

History: He was born into the leader of his clan and had a very pampered childhood. He evolved in the wild once he reached the age of 9, and he was considered beautiful even by his clan and was elected temporary leader. He was caught by Vanessa when he rose up to protect some of the feebas in the area, and she took the opportunity and caught him in an Ultra Ball before he had time to attack.

Moveset: Aqua Ring, Surf, Blizzard, Light Screen

Others: He isn't particularly fond of Vanessa or many of her pokemon, because he feels that she shouldn't have caught him and he misses his family, although he is too proud to admit it.

I edited my appearance to add more detail. Am I accepted too?

 

[Silhouette]

I edited my appearance to add more detail. Am I accepted too?

You are accepted! I'm sorry to all the roleplayers who weren't able to edit in time. Good luck in future roleplays.

NOTE: I should have said this earlier, but no roleplayer's Pokemon will start off holding an item.

Let the Roleplay begin!

First Missions:

You arrive to the frontier, along with about a hundred other trainers off of the luxury cruiser, only to find that you are assigned to partake in a placement exam. Everyone's first mission is this:

Spoiler:

Receive your Battle Pass, and go to your placement exams. They will be 1 versus 1 battles, the match ups are as follows:

Your character vs. Opponent (the Pokemon you will battle)

Malic Ragel vs. Jonathan (Glalie)
Jamie Bird vs. Arial (Onix)
Rina Hendrix vs. Jeffrey (Quagsire)
Vanessa Lea Greene vs. Louis(Dewgong)
Kaylin Maher vs. Griffin (Probopass)
Marnie Walters vs. Rosa (Swanna)

I think that's everyone...

 

[Kogenta]

Posted. If I gave incorrect information, wrote a wrong procedure, did not cover everything correctly, etc., I am willing to edit. The reason I chose to name the ship S. S. Fiona is that, as I understand it, "Fiona" means "final."

Very good post, and it's alright. Everything was perfectly fine, and again... good post!

 

[Beechlgz]

Done mine. I was just thinking, I wonder if you chose pokemon for us that the majority of our pokemon would have trouble with? I could have easily had my character use his water type bird against the onix, but I thought I'd make it interesting by using something else. After all, the character couldn't possibly know what was going to come out.

It was that obvious? I tried to use odd Pokemon to keep it subtle, but... XD

o_o Oops

That aside, it was a very good post. I wonder what happened to the other RPers...

 

[Legend]

I've had a rough week so I haven't had any time to really sit down and write. I'll try to get one this weekend in between my shifts at work.

Take your time, as the new missions will start on Monday.

 

[Kogenta]

Very good post, and it's alright. Everything was perfectly fine, and again... good post!

Alright. And thank you.

I did wonder about the Pokemon choices as well. A dragon trainer faces an ice type, and though I attempted decent type coverage only one of my Pokemon has one supereffective attack. Most other available attack types were resisted. Challenges breed creativity, however, which makes an RP more enjoyable.

In the future, I'll be assigning battles based on a random Pokemon team generator, so anyone could get lucky or unlucky when that time comes.

EDIT: Also, for those of you who have finished, feel free to go to the hotel (in the RP, of course XD) and mingle there. If you want, you can also PM me a team for a rival trainer you want to meet.

ANOTHER EDIT: Also, nice post tenthcompanion! Nice use of strategy, and bit of humor involved, too.
