Custom mission with everyone's favorite Struggle© Superstar

The Wishiwashi Squad needs voice actors! Near the end of route 5, there is a large warehouse and production studio built close to the ocean that belongs to Simonson Productions, and is known to be the shooting location for most of its creations. TWS needs voice actors for the guest characters of their Valentine's Day special, and your trainer happens to be perfectly typecast for the role! Using revolutionary virtual reality combined with facial and body tracking technology, the actors are transformed into true-to-life fish Pokemon while shooting, which allows for even more immersive acting (as well as saving time on animation). Are you ready to become a fish on the silver screen?

Reward:

Hullo, I've worked up the sheer, offensive nerve to seek admission to this RP, if you'd have me. Also I was told that if I join this late I'm supposed to apply with two mons rather than just one, let me know if I'm mistaken.

Tim Thaumatoff is Accepted!

The naming conventions of the humans and the appearance sections made me double-take for a second, but upon reading the SU the character seems to have a well thought out backstory and personality, as well as the opportunity to explore the idea of poverty in Galar, which is a very fitting theme.

Excellently made SU, welcome to Spear! An invitation to the Discord is forthcoming.

((Recurring Simon NPCs for Reference))​


jfljx9h.png

Name: Aurora Yan
Age: 17
A mysterious young trainer who works for Blackspear Industries as a field operative, though Simon has been unable to deduce much else of her role. Aurora has been paired up with Simon by their manager for several Blackspear jobs now. She is a calm and straightforward person with little care for small talk, and often chides Simon for his lack of professionalism. She has been shown to have talent with computers and hacking into them. Aurora has revealed that she was a league challenger in the year before Simon's, endorsed by the psychic-type gym, but she never made it past Kabu - a grudge she may still hold to this day. She hopes to rise up the Blackspear command chain over time.

Name: Harris Pearburgh
Age: 48
Simon's father and proud owner of the Groggy Grubbin, a small pub in Ballonlea. Harris is a large, cheerful and boisterous man whose influence is evident on his son as their personalities are quite similar. A league challenger in his youth, he spent most of his life traveling the Pokemon world alongside his partner Grimmsnarl (fondly nicknamed 'Grimms') before settling back down in Galar with Simon's mother. Following his wife's illness he was forced to raise their son on his own, and hence can be a little protective of him at times - though he is quick to boast any of Simon's achievements to the entire town whenever he can. He is also always eager to give Simon unsolicited fatherly advice.

Name: Flynn Zelkova
Age: 30
Regional Manager of Eastern and Western Galar for the Blackspear Corporation, and one of Simon's superiors. Mr. Zelkova (though he prefers to be called by his first name) is a friendly, outgoing and charismatic individual who quickly rose up the corporate chain at Blackspear for his charm and effectiveness at securing deals. Despite his cheerful disposition, Flynn is unshakeable when it comes to business, and does not hesitate to use any tactics necessary to give Blackspear (and himself) the advantage. He was once a League challenger alongside his twin brother Forrest, before being knocked out of the competition by Kabu. He is also an avid fan of bug-types, much like Simon, and has such taken the trainer a protégé of sorts.

Name: Victor Yan
Age: 15
Budding inventor and younger brother to Aurora. Victor is an eccentric but friendly young man, with a fondness for making contraptions and gadgets in his spare time (of which he has a lot of), often working alongside his sister Aurora, who handles the software side of things. He is endlessly curious, and enjoys constructing and deconstructing mechanisms just to see how (and if) they work. He hopes to one day follow in the path of his mother and become a Blackspear researcher, perhaps even an accredited Pokemon professor one day. His... unconventional method for reviving Simon's fossil has shown mixed results. Victor is familiar with the man Simon knows as 'Santiago Claudio', and seems to be equally skilled in breaking into places.

STAGE 8 - HULBURY

Spoiler:

The journey continues and the next challenge approaches!

As a Champion leaves, future Champions enter!

The port city of Hulbury, also known as Bow Town, is a beautiful and picturesque locale and the center of foreign imports for the Galar region. Known for its spectacular restaurants packed with seafood or foreign cuisine, the dockyard full of sailors and vessels, the gorgeous overlooking lighthouse and the center of operations for the Galar model agency, this might be the busiest city our heroes have visited thus far!

Still, you can't talk about modelling or the wide ocean beyond without mentioning the cities very own Gym Leader. Nessa, The Raging Wave! Known for her confident and forward personality, Nessa is compared less to a serene pond and more to a crashing current striking the shoreline. Many a fan for her can be found in the city, for her skill as a leader, for her beauty and budding career as a professional model, or both. The Hulbury gym awaits at the North end of the city, ready to accept any and all challengers who may approach.

With gym battles to be had, places to explore and the ocean air to be enjoyed, the next chapter of Pokémon Spear begins!

MISSIONS:



[OPEN][GYM] ★ 1:
The Second Gym of the Galar League is here! Nessa is waiting to face the trainers who battled her rival Milo and is prepared to test their skills and see if they're worthy of the coveted Water Badge. If you think you can keep pace with the current, then prepare to face off with the Raging Wave of Hulbury!

270px-Sword_Shield_Nessa.png


GYM BATTLE - VS. Nessa

Spoiler:

The Raging Wave, Nessa of Port Hulbury. A focused, diligent and intense battler with a pletora of different skills at her disposal. She uses her terrain to her advantage, her newly designed stadium being based off of an olympic swimming pool. Hit and run tactics are the order of the day, unless she decides to bring out Dreadnaw, in which case get ready for a full frontal assault! Complete her Gym Mission to challenge Nessa!

Gym Mission:
It takes more than tactics to become a powerful trainer. You need physical fitness and endurance too... and where better to test that than the water? Nessa's Wave Wipeout is the name of the game, an obstacle course focused on waves and water that must be taken on with a single pokémon of your choice. The obstacles are randomized each and every race through, though each one will try to slow you down or knock you down into the pool below (think up three obstacles that take your fancy, maybe some bursting water jets? Spinning pylons to duck and dodge? Small platform to leap across? Two switches to hit alongside your pokémon?) Complete the course within the time limit of 15 minutes alongside your pokémon companion in order to pass the challenge!

Important Note:
From this stage onwards, gym missions will be optional for players to write into their posts. In retrospect these are things designed for in game mechanics and they don't translate very well to writing when everyone has to complete the same challenge in this way. Feel free to write them if you have a cool idea, but otherwise you may skip over them and assume your character succeeded.

Battle!
Complete the Gym Mission and earn the right to challenge Nessa to a battle! Nessa shares her preferred battle type with her rival Milo, a 2v2 Single Battle, i.e. a Single Battle where each trainer uses two pokémon and can switch them around at will. The first trainer to have both of their pokémon KO'd is the loser.

Nessa is a slippery opponent who relies on the natural strengths of water type pokémon. Her gym stadium has been converted to an olympic grade swimming pool. A massive, deep pool of water where her water type pokémon can shine. Dotted around the arena are a number of white, floating platforms allowing water averse pokémon to stand and jump between during the fight, but make no mistake, water type pokémon have the advantage in such an arena. Trainers have designated platforms they can stand upon at either end of the pool.

Nessa utilizes hit and run tactics in battles, utilizing Pelipper or Lanturn, she attempts to set up an advantageous situation for her team by summoning rain and confusing her opponent. Pelipper and Lanturn can also harry opponents with long distance moves, hiding in either the air or the water to weaken opponents further. Her end goal is often to send out Dreadnaw, boosted in the rain by swift swim, to create a surprisingly speedy brute force beast to batter her opponents and bury them beneath her waves.

Whatever tactic she decides to use, will you be able to keep up and keep your head above the water?

[OPEN] Mission 1:
Hulbury is a town of imports and exports and what better to export from a port city than fish? The local fisherman's guild is one of the oldest branches in all of Galar, but recently they've had a problem. An environmental transport ship from Alola ran afoul of a sandbar and their cargo of Bruxish have infested the local waters. All able bodied fishers are needed to help reel in these ne'er-do-wells.
Reward: Good Rod

Mission 2:
The local modelling agency is pretty devoted to Nessa as their iconic star, but with the new league challenge looming, perhaps it's time to invest in some brand new talent? Young, hot-blooded trainers with beauty, brawn and style! Someone like that, well, they'd be perfect to be put on a pedestal... maybe those Wedgehurst Academy kids? They seem pretty popular!
Reward: 1 x Model Agency License + 1 x Branded Contest Outfit

Mission 3:
Weather or not, it's all he's got! Jeffrey is a Unovan weather specialist travelling the world to determine the atmospheric pressure of every town he can! How... riveting. Well, a little more exciting is a recent problem he's run into. Something is throwing the weather in Hulbury way off recently, it's too early in the year for it to be THIS warm, surely? He's certain a pokémon is spamming some weather altering move and he's not happy about it. Help him deal with the problem and he'll teach you the secrets of changing the weather for yourself!
Reward: 1 x TR Sunny Day OR 1 x TR Sandstorm

[MULTI] Mission 4:
The local lighthouse is stirring with interest... and that's for good reason! A classic fan of lighthouses and port cities is in town. Volkner, ex-gym leader of the Sinnoh region is vacationing in Galar and has attracted the attention of quite a few old fans. He's just trying to relax and enjoy the scenery but things keep getting more and more hectic, this is approaching Team Yell levels of fervor... maybe you could help him out?
Reward:
- 1 x TR Charge Beam
- 1 x TR Waterfall
- 1 x TR Flash


[CATCH CHANCE!] Mission 5:
In a classic turn of events, the lighthouse light has gone out, though this time there's not an Ampharos involved. A trap door inside leads to the lighthouses power grid beneath the floorboards... and strange noises have been coming from down there for a few days now. Still, the lighthouse keeper isn't a fighter... he's at his wits end and needs someone to lend a hand.
Reward: 1 x Light Clay

Mission 6:
The local restaurant scene is alive and buzzing in Hulbury. Plenty of places serving seafood and out-regional specialties are all along the harbors edge. One restaurant in particular has been struggling in recent times. A seafood restaurant near the road leading to the gym received great business once, due to being Chairman Rose's favorite haunt. Things have taken an opposite turn since the Darkest Day... and the business is desperate for some help to drum up more business.
Reward: 1 x Curry Making Kit

Mission 7:
Disaster has struck, out beyond the coast line, lost in a mist in the middle of the night, a small cruise ship has crashed into jutting rocks just off the coast of the city. Trainers with water type pokémon are swimming out in droves to aid local law enforcement and pokémon rangers in rescuing civilians, but the situation is looking grim as wild pokémon begin to approach the wreckage.
Reward: 1 x Heart Scale

Mission 8:
Local law enforcement have been struggling to capture a particular individual for a few days straight. A strange man dressed in a long blue coat with deep purple eyes. He uses ghost type pokémon and is responsible for robbing a number of stores and most recently a local bank. This has gone on long enough but no traces are found at the scenes of the crime bar static filled footage on security cameras. Will you be the one to capture the Hulbury Specter?
Reward: 1 x Trade Evolution Item of your Choice (Reaper Cloth, Metal Coat, etc.)

[CATCH CHANCE!] Mission 9:
A flock of strange bird pokémon have suddenly arrived in Hulbury. Usually not a problem, birds are birds... except when they're pulling off sick wrestling moves on innocent bystanders. Piledrivers, clothes lines, body presses, the works... they never hurt anyone too badly, seems its mostly for theatrics, but it should be obvious why this can't be allowed to continue.
Reward: 1 x Luchadore Mask

Mission 10:
The local fishers market has a unique stall that many a trainer and breeder goes to for assistant. A young woman from abroad sells foreign incense and herbs that can be nigh irresistible to certain types of pokémon. Perhaps a little too irresistible it seems... after an incense spillage wild pokémon from the water are crawling onto land to take it for themselves! Help protect the seller and her product and maybe you'll get yourself some incense of your own? Oh, it's also probably the right thing to do.
Reward: 1 x Incense of your Choice + 1 x Revival Herb
