This is my first RP here, so please bear with me on this.

Also, if you wish to become a co-host, please state so. Only two will be accepted, and you will have all rights and privileges that I do aside from starting the threads and making final decisions on important story events.
December 21st, 20XX.
The Winter Solstice occurs, accompanied by the Lunar Eclipse. As the Sun and Moon cross paths, a single snowflake falls from the cloudless sky, and lands upon the point where the Prime Meridian and Equator cross, and the world is engulfed in a harsh light, a single dark silhouette hanging in the sky, where the moon once was. As the light fades, the Moon and Sun now hang in opposite sides of the sky, and their representative times of day are switched (Sun at night on one side, Moon in daytime on the other.) Large fissures appear in the ground. Mysterious people in cloaks wander Pokearth. They are the cult of the Fluctus Infinitum. They're here, and they mean business....But, that's not your only problem. You also have Gyms and Contests to attend to, so I strongly suggest you get a move on with those, too!
Rules
Spoiler:
Rule 0--You MUST be literate. I CANNOT stress that enough.
1. All regular rules apply.
2. Pokemon are essentially "built-in" with every capable learnset, so as to make this more realistic. They can also combine moves.
3. You can have as many Apps as you want.
4. My word and that of my co-hosts (if I have any) is absolute.
5. As proof that you read this, please name one random vegetable after your app. Please spoiler it.

Other Important/Trivial Information:
Rokan Region
Spoiler:
Indawn Town: The starting town of the region. This is where boats and planes arrive and such. To the north is Source Cave, to the East and South is the open ocean, and to the West is Victory Road.
Source Cave: A short passage that goes through a small mountain. Inside there are many low-level Pokemon...Well, in the main section. There are other passages that originate from other areas, and around those areas there may be stronger Pokemon.
Debriment Town: The first Gym Town. The town is known for the fact it was one of the hardest hit areas during the earthquakes. The town's inhabitants live with it as normally as possible, and now they don't notice very often until someone brings it up. To the North and West lies the Rokan Scrapyard, and to the East lies Rokan Ridge.
Rokan Scrapyard: The Rokan Scrapyard is the hardest hit area in the Pokemon world. It is literally all rock and debris. However, numerous Pokemon have made it their home, and rumor has it that the Cult of the Shattered Earth is interested in this place...This area lies North and West of Debriment Town, and South and East of the Wasteland.
*Wasteland: The Wasteland has been barren for as long as anyone can remember, and apparently has been as far back as historical records go. Only the hardiest of Pokemon and people can survive out here. It is also rumored to be home to a rare and powerful Pokemon...
Rokan Ridge: A long ridge that runs along the entire eastern side of the Rokan region. It is rumored that beneath the ridge, on the breaking waves, lies a cave that is home to Lugia...
Shorand City: A small city on top of the Rokan Ridge. It was originally much larger, but the massive earthquakes caused much of it to plummet into the sea. Shorand is also home to the Weather Institute, a Contest Hall and second Gym. To the North, one can reach Tropica Falls, and to the West lies Umbra Forest.
Tropica Falls: A small oasis lying atop the Rokan Ridge that was named for the large waterfall that plummets down to the sea 125 feet below. One can find many Pokemon that are found in tropical areas around here, and there is also a large deposit of Evolutionary Stones lying in the water and beneath the sand.
Umbra Forest: Umbra forest is named so because it is incredibly dark due to its thick canopy, and it is hard to see without the aid of a flashlight or Pokemon to illuminate the area. Many nocturnal Pokemon make their homes here, as it appears to be unaffected by the "Broken Sky," and even the bright flash that surrounded the entire world had nearly no effect on what lie inside the forest. To the North one can find a vast pit, which is said to house Kyurem. To the West is Volterse town.
Volterse Town: Volterse town, contrary to what the name may seem to imply, has nothing to do with electricity. It actually lies on the border between the two sides of the Sky, and is thus home to the Cult of the Fluctus Infinitum's base of operations. A Contest Hall is also present. To the North one can find Blackpearl Town, to the South lies Rushid City, and to the East is a road that leads to the ocean with a large, rainbow-hued rock lying 50 metres off the coast.
Blackpearl Town: This is the location of the third gym. The town is rather unremarkable, but it is surrounded on all sides by a large lake, which is home to a rare subspecies of Clamperl which bear black pearls. To the North is Guartinel City, and to the East is Kyurem's Pit.
Rushid City: Rushid City was divided into two factions a long time ago, and eventually a fissure split the city in two officially. There is a Gym in North Rushid, as well as one in South Rushid. The reason the city was divided originally has been lost in time, but the inhabitants were still on opposite sides of the argument. The only uniting factors now are the Pokemon League and the bridge that allows people to cross the large crack in the ground. To the South of Rushid lies another entrance to Source Cave, to the East is a Gym that is located in the middle of nowhere, and to the West is the coast, with Pentult Island 5 kilometres out. (The North Rushid Gym is technically 4, and South is technically number 5. Also, each half has its own Contest Hall.)
Solitaire Gym: This Gym was named so because it is simply a solitary gym (officially number six) in the middle of nowhere. There is not much to say about it, other than the fact Umbra Forest is to the East, to the South is Source Cave, to the West is Rushid City, and to the North is Blackpearl Town.
Guartinel City: A large city (The largest in Rokan, in fact, as well as the Northernmost location) that is home to the seventh Gym in Rokan. There is also a Department Store, Contest Hall, and a Pokemon Daycare. To the south is Blackpearl, to the West is Heaven and Earth Tower, to the East is Infinitum Mountain. Lastly, to the north lies the border between Rokan and Unova (Look at the Southwest of Unova, and you'll know what I'm talking about).
*Heaven and Earth Tower: A tower inhabited by members of a mysterious company, that claim that one day, people will have no need to capture Pokemon in real life, as they will be replaced by a simulation.
*Infinitum Mountain: A mountain that is said to breach through the clouds themselves. It is home to many rare Pokemon, and many people come here to hone their battling skills.
Pentult Island: The final Gym in Rokan is located here. This island is also home to Rokan Hall, the location of the Grand Festival every year.
Victory Road: A simple bridge that spans the length of 1 kilometre, and after one crosses it, they must present their Trainer Card, Pokedex, Badge Case, and Pokeballs to an attendant, who will then grant access to the League Tournament (Note, you don't just go here when you've collected all the badges, you come when the Tournament is scheduled to start. The same applies for the Grand Festival.)
Grand Stadium: A large stadium with many different facilities for incorporating many different battles at the same time. At the center is a large stadium for when one challenges the Four Heavenly Kings, and eventually, the elusive Champion.....................
