Name: Stella Elerson
Age: 14
Sex: Female
Species: Rotom
Powers: Stella can use thunderbolt, substitute, shadow ball, and confuse ray. Because she is a rotom, when Stella touches a lawnmower, refrigerator, fan, microwave oven, or washing machine her appearance changes slightly and she is able to, on occasion, use different moves. For example, if Stella touches a lawnmower, she may or may not gain the ability to use the move leaf storm in addition to changing in appearance. Typically, Stella will retain her transformation for an hour at maximum, or a mere ten minutes at minimum.
Appearance: Stella is a surprisingly tall girl at around six foot two, despite the petite proportions of her pokemon counterpart. Her electric blue hair is unnaturally straight and, ironically, free of frizz and evidence of static with an odd blue cone-like growth on the top of her head. This front portion of her hair is curved inward, surrounding her face with perpatually blushed cheeks and excited blue eyes. Stella's facial features are angular and sharp, especially her comically pointy nose, but excluding her rather round eyes. On most days, unless the weather dictates otherwise, Stella will rebelliously wear cloths that she thinks resemble the pokemon she is; a red-orange t-shirt with a pale blue jacket and khaki pants of the same color. Unusually, the skin on Stella's hands is blue with faint white markings like the lightning shaped structures on the sides of a rotom. Her feet are the same. But, despite the fact that she never wears shoes, no one seemes to notice Stella's odd feet because her pants are so long.
As mentioned earlier, Stella will sometimes change forms after touching certain machinery. The first of these forms is the one she attains when she touches a lawnmower. When this happens, all the points on Stella's body that are blue, including her eyes and clothes, turn green. The blue cone on her head is replaced with a red antenna-like structure that is enveloped in a green aura. Finally, in this form Stella's teeth will become much sharper and she will sometimes bite and severely injure her tounge.
After touching a refrigerator, all of the blue parts of Stella's body become a shade of pinkish-purple. In this form she becomes much bulkier and gains enough body weight to appear overweight. In this form, the blue cone on Stella's head grows slightly larger in width and growths similar to handles appear on her now much larger stomach. Unfortunately, Stella becomes much more sluggish when in this form.
When she touches a fan, the blue on Stella's body turns yellow and she becomes much more energetic and peppier than usual, if that is even possible. The blue cone on her head disappears entirely in this form and her normally straight hair curls up into gigantic spirals. An enormous fan grows out of Stella's back that is parallel to the back itself and is about two feet in diameter. This fan can lifte Stella an inch or two off the ground for a few seconds.
Microwave ovens cause blue coloring to become red, which blends somewhat with the red color already existing on Stella and gives her a more plain and boring appearance. The cone on her head becomes smaller in this form, but Stella's body temperature is drastically increased. A handle shape, like the two formed when Stella touches a refrigerator, materializes on the right side of Stella's chest and her hands become much bulkier. The rest of Stella's body, however, is not changed like her hands are.
The last of Stella's forms is her washing machine form which makes the blue on Stella's body become a darker, deeper shade. Her body fattens up, though not quite as much as in refrigerator form, and a round, glossy patch of skin is formed on her stomach. The most noticable difference between this form and her normal one is the long red hose that appears coming out of the left side of Stella's hip and can be used to shoot a long spray of water.
Personality: Anyone who has met Stella will say that she is crazy, and most would vouche that she is the most hyper and over-active person that they had ever met. Truth be told, it is often hard to detemine weather Stella is having an extreme sugar rush, or if she is calm and tired; there is no difference between the two except that in the latter Stella will obnoxiously announce that she is feeling a wee bit sleepy. Most of the time she will speak in an unecessarily loud and fast voice, slowing down only if she is asked repeatedly. Oftentimes, when Stella has no way of releasing her energy, she will bounce up and down on the balls of her feet in anticipation for something of intrest (nearly anything) to happen.
Deep down, once you get past the boundless energy of Stella the lunatic, she is a kindhearted girl who loves to help out her friends. And only her friends. Anyone else can, as Stella says, just 'crawl into a hole and die, and then crawl into a hole and die in the afterlife.' This wicked side to her fuels the loathsome feelings that Stella will never miss a chance to express toward humans, and occasionally pokemon that offend her or her friends.
History: Stella doesn't know who her parents were, or even what they were, but she does know that she was raised by the rotom living in the old Chateau. That particular rotom wasn't fond of humans, pokemorphs, or even other pokemon much at all, but when he saw a helpless part-pokemon girl who resembled himself, the iron-hearted prankster caved. To the regret of some of the pokemorph hating other residents of the old Chateau, rotom took care of Stella until she was seven years old, at which time she was strong enough to take care of herself on her own travels.
Stella left her familiar haunted home jittering with excitement, but it didn't take long for her to figure out that almost every human, and a few pokemon, that she encountered hated her. Since she had been raised in an abandoned mansion without many clothes, Stella at the time wore only tattered rags. Seeing humans for the first time, Stella decided that that was no way to dress and she quickly found and robbed a clothing store to get the items she wears now. After that, she felt a little more normal, but was still hated by nearly ever human in the city she now resided in, which happened to be Eterna.
One evening, when Stella was simply minding her own business wandering around near the large statue of Palkia near the northern part of Eterna, she spotted a human boy of around her age, which was eleven at the time. He was hiding behind a bush, peering at Stella nervously, and as soon as she caught his eye he vanished. Wondering what the boy had been doing, Stella tried to flush him out for interrogation using a few weak thunderbolt attacks. Within a few seconds, the boy came out shaking with fear and fiddling with some object in his hands. Stella obnoxiously questioned him about what he was doing and why he was doing it and what he was holding and what he was doing and wait, hadn't she already asked that? As it turned out, the boy had heard a rumor about Stella and was wondering if she could really turn into a machine; the thing he was holding was a small hand-held fan. When Stella was aobut to demonstrate, the boy's mother saw him and ran up to her precious boy, telling him not to go near a 'horrible creature like her' and throwing rocks at Stella. In response, Stella screamed an annoying battle cry and zapped the boy's mother with a powerful bolt of lightning. The shock could have electricuted the lady, but Stella didn't stick around to find out. After that, she swore never to act friendly to a human again, and she never returned to Eterna.
RP Sample: Fascinating... I seem to only use this sample for roleplay sign ups...
Spoiler:
Molly heaved out a sigh as she sat on her bed staring at the messenger who had brought news that she was drafted into a legendary's army. Said messenger was a mysterious purple snover who had hatched only moments before. "Oh little snover, what am I supposed to do?"
"Snooo? Snover snow snow."
"Okay, I have no idea what you just said, but I have and idea at least. I could tell my mom that I found you and want to go on a pokemon journey, maybe I can do some battles and capture other pokemon along the way, and if this 'Inertigon' really exists, maybe he will show himself."
"Snover snow!"
Molly shot a confused look at her pokemon. "You didn't understand any of that did you. Oh well, at least you are supportive. Come on, we need to talk to my mother." Molly grabbed the oddly-shaped hand of her snover and walked him out of her large, elegant, room and down the hallway to her parents' room. This particular hallway looked over the main entranceway and had a grand staircase leading down from the middle. A huge crystal chandelier hung over the staircase and reflected a thousand spots of light over the room. But Molly didn't stop to gawk; this was her house and teenage girl wanted nothing more than to reach the master bedroom at the center of the hall. Finally, Molly reached her destination and took a deep breath before placing her free hand on the doorknob and pulling it open. Once inside, Molly's mother noticed her arrival and turned to look.
"Oh my, Molly dear, where did you get that strange pokemon?"
As the snover stepped up beside her Molly shifted with unease and carefully thought out her response before talking. "I-I found this snover outside, and I wanted to keep him because he was very beautiful, as you can see. Then I started thinking and... well this is kind of sudden but I want to go on a pokemon journey!"
A look of shock crossed onto Molly's mother's face. "You really mean it? When you were ten I told you I could get you a pokemon, but you refused. Are you sure you want to do this now?"
"Yes, I'm sure, I'll be heading out right away. I don't think I want to be doing any gym battles... but contests seem very fun. And my snover's neat colors will get me tons of fame I'm sure of it. So... I guess this is goodbye." Molly shrugged and looked hopefully at her mother.
"Oh no you don't! Not without a backpack and some kind of sleeping bag in case you have to camp out, and some money and food of course. Come over here, you can have my old bag." Excitedly, Molly hurried over with the snover following close behind. Molly's mom opened up a large cabinet filled with many fascinating old things, but the one she pulled out was a was a small and stylish white backpack with a periwinkle pokeball design on the back. She handed it to Molly, and curiously the new trainer looked in the main pocket to find a lightweight, tan sleeping bag and a few potions that her mother had never taken out. Molly looked up at her mom with shining eyes.
"Wow! Thanks so much! I-I can't believe it!"
"Okay sweetie. Now take this too; you will need money for shopping at pokemarts and buying food while in town." Gratefully, Molly took the simple wallet that her mother had pulled out and checked to find out that there were one thousand dollars inside.
"All this? For me? Seriously, thanks. I'll be sure to stop in the next town... uh... Jubilife, to get some food with this. But now, I want to go be a pokemon co-ordinater. Goodbye Mom!" Molly was already out the door and rushing down the stairs when her mother shouted 'goodbye' back. Pausing to let her snover catch up, Molly opened the front door and took a step out into the warm Sandgem air. After taking a deep breath, Molly began to walk toward the route that would take her to Jubilife. A contest was supposed to be held there soon, a perfect chance to start off her career... and to train this snover for 'Inertigon'.
"Okay snover, your training begins today. I don't think you need a pokeball; you can just follow me around." Molly thought for a second before continuing. "But, I hate calling you just snover, so I hereby dub thee as Prince Frostbite!"
"Sno-snover!" The newly named 'Prince Frostbite' held his head high like a real prince and walked with his now giggling trainer out into the world outside the city.
@perfectmonster: Fine, you're reserved for two days, or you will be if you tell me which side. I can't reserve a spot on both sides. And what's the difference between the sides? The Sympathizers fight to protect the humans, while the Rebellion fights to kill the humans. In this situation, the Sympathizers are (Good/Evil) while the Rebellion is (Evil/Good). Does that make sense... at all?
@The Jewel of Life: Yeah, you're accepted. Welcome aboard.
May I join? This will be my first RP on the PC, but I have roleplayed elsewhere.
Name: Tei Harrison (doesn't like her last name, doesn't use it)
Age: 16
Sex: Female
Species: Sneasel
Powers: Tei can only usefully wield a few of her attacks properly, these being Quick Attack, Fury Swipes, Agility and Ice Wind. The rest of her attacks either fail or are uncontrollable, so she tends not to use them. She is also able to blend into the shadows; not become invisible, as such, but merely unnoticed.
Appearance: Tei has long black hair which she uses to cover up her pink head-feather, although it protrudes when she doesn't concentrate. Her hands are like a Sneasel's, making her less dextrous than others, but allows her to use attacks and also to use her claws for activites such as climbing. She also has three feathers sticking out of her lower back which embarrasses her, and a yellow gem in her chest (easy to cover up) and forehead (not so easy). Her eyelashes are particularly long, too. Her skin is pale, a contrast from the usual blue-black of Sneasels, and she burns easily in the sun. She is short for her age, and relatively straight up and down, which causes many to mistake her for a boy. To combat this a little, she wears heeled boots, and usually wears leggings and long tops, which make is easier to hide her butt-feathers.
Personality: Tei is an introvert around strangers; cold, rude and hard to get on with. Once her trust is earnt, however, she is loud and playful, although prone to mood swings. Usually, upon meeting new people, she begins by giving them the cold shoulder, and if they dare to insult her, on their head be it. If she mananges to empathise with them enough, she'll open up and become a genuinely nice person, although she will still kick off if anything bad is said about her, even petty things. She is easily frustrated and impatient; if something needs doing and she can't get it done straight away, she'll probably attack it and then sulk. When happy (and full-stomached) she is cheery and calm.
History: Living in the outskirts of Snowpoint City as a child, Tei was raised by the Sneasel and Weavile that lived there. She was a good child, always caring for the other Pokemon, until the day that a blizzard came. Being unable to cope with the environmental change, Tei was close to death when a mysterious figure arrived, picked her up and saved her life. When she awoke, she was on the steps of the Snowpoint Temple and couldn't remember who it was who had saved her.
For the next few years, she was allowed to work as a Temple guard, only allowing in those who had met certain requirements. Many pleaded, and this was when she realised her caring attitude would hinder her, and adopted the vicious one she uses now. At this point, she was a ten year old Pokemorph in a human world, and she was uneducated about anything other than guarding the temple. It was on the wishes of Regigigas himself, so she heard, that she leave and experience the world.
In the six years that followed, Tei saw many things. She travelled around Sinnoh, and then Hoenn, before arriving in Kanto, where she settled within the Seafoam Islands, which is where she has stayed to this day. But it is what she saw in those six years, things that she won't tell to anyone, that caused her to pick her side...
RP Sample: From The Clan:
Spoiler:
The wind bellowed as it swept across the flowing paths it had cut into the tundra. Powder snow danced with it, leaping from its resting place on the hard-packed ice ridges to travel someplace new.
Aelina watched with interest through the door of her hut. She had never known that outside world. She had never known the feeling of the wind, or of the cold. She had never left this hut.
"Aelina, my child, it is time to prepare," she heard the Mage call to her, but ignored the old man's voice. She was too interested in the patterns the wind made as it manipulated the snow, swirling, swooping --
"Aelina! You must get ready! The ceremony is nearly beginning, and we haven't painted your face yet!" Irino, the Ice Bear Mage, grabbed her arm and pulled her away from the doorway. He sat her down in a spot with good lighting from the fire and dipped a finger into a pot of earthblood blackened with ashes. Aelina closed her red eyes as the warm paint was applied. She felt the shape of circles being drawn around her eyes, staining her lips, brandishing her cheeks. She only opened them when she felt the ministrations move to her hands, upon the back of which were painted the pads of a bear's paw, with long black claws down each finger.
"Now, take your place upon the throne, my child," Irino gestured towards the majestic seat, and Aelina begrudginly took her position.
"Irino, what is it like outside?" she asked. Irino shook his head.
"Hopefully, my child, you will never have to know."
Aelina stared across the fire at the wavering image of the northern landscape. She wished that once, just once, she would see it for real.
~
The ceremony began.
Three hunters accompanied the leader as they approached Aelina. They didn't speak to her; they spoke to what she represented. With her demonic face-paint and wearing the skin of an Ice Bear, they spoke to all bears through her.
"Great Warrior of the Ice," the leader began, bowing to Aelina. "Please, allow us passage as we hunt for survival, as you do. Please, allow us passage as we navigate your territory, as you do. Please, allow us passage as we wield our weapons to our prey, as you do. Please, allow us passage as we return triumphant, to eat and replenish our bodies, and to rest at home, as you do. Our thanks to you, Great Warrior of the Ice."
Aelina bowed, bored of the ceremony which took place at the beginning of every day. "Go, prosper, and fear not," she replied. The leader and hunters bowed once more before they left. Irino handed her a waterskin, and she washed the markings from her face and hands.
"Irino, please listen to me," she said. The old man looked up. "I meant what I said; one day I want to go outside. When I do, please, promise not to punish me for it."
The old man hesitated, and then smiled and nodded.
@jasonwolf: *Inhale* no. Personality's too short, Appearance is too short, not much of that was spelled right, the history also seems to bug me for some reason, I don't know.
May I ask what kinds of things one can put in the history? I mean, do all the characters have to not know their parents, because they're crossbreeds or genetic experiments? xX
They can know their parents, in fact, their parents could be pokemorphs if you wish, after all, they came out of hiding, not were made, 20 years ago. In fact, the characters I control, have two pokemorph parents that abandoned them to live on their own. As long as it isn't too out there, I don't mind. They aren't recent experiments, they've been around for quite a while, so it is possible to have pokemorph parents.
You don't need to have a tragic history for either side. It'd make more sense for the rebellion side, but you don't necessarily need a tragic history to be a member of the rebellion. On the flip side, you can have a tragic history, and still fight for humans. But don't make it too bad, because I don't want to read about a bunch of emo kids.
Powers: He can use electric attacks fairly well, can use Iron Tail, and knows the attack Dig.
Appearance: Maxwell is fairy short, at about 4'7" tall. His skin is tan from being out in the sun a lot in his life. His hair is a dull orange color, and is about average length for a human male. His eyes are a deep shade of blue, that looks quite a bit like the color of the ocean. His nose is small, and is pointed out, while his lips are fairly thin. He possesses a pair of Raichu ears, and tail, as well as the bright yellow electric sacs, which Raichu use to produce lightning. His arms are kind of short for a man of his size. His fingers are a little long for the size of the hand and arms, but are fairly skinny. Max's legs are fairly short as well, and are fairly skinny. His body is skinny as well.
Maxwell wears a hat that has holes cut in for his ears, the hat itself is a simple blue one, nothing special written on it. He wears a plain red shirt that is a size or two too big for him. His pants are fairly long and touch the ground. The color pants he wears is tan. He has a bunch of pockets on his pants, used to carry items. His shoes are a simple black, which look a little worn. He also wears a brown trench coat to carry things in, as well as to protect against the elements. It is his size, which is fortunate for him.
Personality: Maxwell is normally a happy person, but is quick to annoy, and even anger, which can get him into trouble a lot. He is always tempted to join the rebellion, but thinks that the humans can be good people, but right now, they are scared. The members of his family annoy him, as they are in the rebellion. He also is forgiving, but if you betray him more than once, he will hate you. He also tries to treat humans with respect, but is still blown off by most people.
He likes electronics, and is amazed at how humans were able to make what they did. He also enjoys talk shows, whenever he can find a radio, he usually listens to Mary's talk show. He hates loud music, and he is afraid of what could happen to the world within the next few weeks, as well as heights.
History: Max was born in the back alleys Saffron City on December 3rd, 1992, along with David, to a pair of pokémorphs, who were unfortunate enough to get evicted from their apartment, but despite that, they decided to keep the twins, and live out of Saffron City. However, as the kids grew, so did humanity's fear and hatred of pokémorphs, because of a failed rebellion. Max never liked the idea of rebellion, but his brother and parents seemed to want it a lot, due to their own standing in society. His views were ignored by his family, and he was pushed around by his brother.
After about six years of living in the wild, Max and David were abandoned in Saffron, to fend on their own. David stayed with Max for about a month, but disappeared. However, Max was able to steal a train ticket and rode to Goldenrod, because he thought it would be better there than Saffron. Well, he was wrong. The treatment was about the same, and he was chased into the underground. Eventually, having lived off of scraps in the Underground, David came to him and offered a spot in his rebellion. Max rejected the offer, irritating David, who left. Soon, the rebellion became a big threat, and while he tried to fight them off, people still hated him.
Max began to travel around the world, trying to let people know about his brother's rebellion, and while some cities believed him, others just sent him away, beaten and bloodied. The cities that accepted his beliefs were too small to do much to convince other cities, so his word was with few people. Max caught word of a Rebel invasion plan in Goldenrod, so he rushed to return to his own city.
Side: Human
Name: David Enders
Age: 15
Sex: Male
Species: Raichu
Powers: Can use thunder attacks to an extremely high degree, he knows Protect, Toxic, Iron Tail, and Dig in addition to his own electrical manipulation.
Appearance: David is about as small as his brother, around 4'8" tall. His hair is dull orange, and is also average length for a guys, but he spikes his hair up. His eyes are a deep blue like Maxwell's, but are colder. His nose is small, and pointed, but it is larger than Max's, and his electric sacs are red instead of yellow. His lips are thin as well, and has no baby fat on his face. His arms are fairly long for someone of his size, but are fairly skinny, his fingers are of average length. His legs are a little short for his size, but it's not really noticable. Overall, he is pretty skinny as well.
He wears a black shirt under a leather jacket, the shirt has writings on it that only members of the Pikachu family can understand, meaning 'Conquerer'. It is a little big for him, but he doesn't care. His pants are black, and fit well on him, not too baggy, but not tight. He doesn't wear shoes, as he is used to walking everywhere in bare feet.
Personality: David is generally a calm guy, with a passion to conquer the world of humans, and has created the Rebellion to try and do that. He is quick to anger, like his brother, but can handle it better. He is also very imaginative, and is able to come up with plans fairly quickly. He is also confident in his powers, but isn't overconfident.
He enjoys leading others, he has a certain flare for leadership, and is loyal to his cause. He hates it when people disobey orders he needs done. He is afraid of ladders, but he can suck it up when he has to. His feelings towards humans are that of contempt, obviously.
History: Like Max, he was born in a back alley of Saffron City, and was kept by his parents, but when they were abandoned, David ran from Max, so he could live out life to what he wanted to do. He lived in Viridian City for a eight years, and they didn't treat him well. Viridian is known as hell to pokemorphs, and for any that go there, they know why. After taking that one last beating, he snapped and ran away. He wanted revenge, and he knew how to get it.
He quickly offered powerful pokémorphs high positions in a rebellion that he was planning on forming. Some accepted and others refused, but soon, he had a small army, but that wasn't enough. Not to mention that if he were to make one mistake, then everyone would turn on him, so he trained to the point of severe exhaustion, and eventually he mastered his powers.
David scoured across the countryside, looking for any pokemorphs at all, now that he built up his most powerful forces. He offered freedom if they wished. The ones that accepted joined, and the ones who rejected died. David had finally built up his entire rebellion.
David went to Goldenrod and tried to convince Max to join him, but he refused, irritating David greatly, but instead of attacking, he went to Blackthorn City and set up a permanent base, moving the resources and troops there before beginning to send out agents to go around the world, to get other agents to help him conquer the humans. If they accepted, then they wait in their hometown until a signal was sent.
Side: Rebellion
RP Sample: This is from an RP that likely none of you ever heard of. Zimvee's 'The Pokemon Adventure: Kanto Region': Which is my first RP. I'm much better, now.
Spoiler:
Chapter 50: Chris Vs. Kyle: Round 5?
Chris had finally made it inside Fuschia City. "Whoa, I'm finally here... I have always wanted to come to the Safari Zone." Said Chris. "But it's getting late... Oh well, tomorrow I'm going to have to fight Koga, and get my fifth badge... I wonder if my brother would be proud." Chris then started walking towards the Safari Zone, but was blocked by a tree.
"Hey, Chris!" Yelled a familiar voice. Chris turned around and saw... Kyle.
"Hey Kyle." Said Chris, but Kyle sent out a Pinsir. "What's going on?"
"Fight me!" Yelled Kyle, but Chris had other ideas.
"Sorry, but this is a city. I don't fight in cities." Said Chris. Kyle returned his Pinsir in disappointment. "We will have a contest, whoever can dash around the city once will win."
"Okay." Said Kyle. "We will start tomorrow, and start at Koga's Gym, then we will dash through the Zoo, and then to the gate before running back."
"Okay." Said Chris before walking to the PC. "Wow, he's nuts for a challenge... this has to be the fifth time we had to face one another in combat... but this is a race, so does it count?"
(One day later)
Chris rounded the last corner and saw a bunch of camera crews, watchers, and even Koga. "What the heck?!"
"I went all out, I spent 20000 P$ for this event, now the whole world will see me beat you!" Yelled Kyle as he went up to the starting gate. Chris reluctantly followed.
"Here are the rules! You stay on the track, and you can't use pokemon, but the rest is fair game!" Yelled the Judge. "Ready...... GO!!" Kyle dashed out leaving Chris in the dust.
"Go Chris, go!" Yelled all of the people, getting Chris to start running. Now Chris is faster, but Kyle can hold out longer.
(Race Course Stretch 1: The Corner Turn)
Chris was starting to catch up with Kyle at this point, and wasn't really tired... after all, he had more bad guys chasing after him then the Justice League.
"Crap, he's catching up!" Yelled Kyle as he glanced at the trash bins. "Trash Kick!" And woth that, he kicked over the bins, and to Chris's wonder there were Houndour inside. The Houndour looked around and since Chris was the closest person, the Houndour locked on to him.
"Huh? Crap!" Yelled Chris as the pokemon jumped at him. He ducked before running as fast as he could, distancing himself quite a bit from the Houndour before they could turn around. Kyle looked back and saw Chris right near him, as he tripped his rival, sending him to the ground and allowing him to turn the corner first. Chris got back up and ran after Kyle in an attempt to catch up.
(Gym)
Sandy walked into the gym to see a whole bunch of people inside... obviously the camera crews were gone, chasing the racers, but everyone else was watching the race inside, since this was being broadcast live all across Kanto. "Umm... What's going on here?"
"Didn't you hear? Kyle Laurel and Christopher Evans are racing around the ENTIRE city, that's five miles! And they have to do it by the end of the day." Said a random person.
"Kyle Laurel... Isn't that the kid who I met before Vermillion?" Asked Sandy to herself before looking to the screen, and indeed Kyle and Chris were running towards the Zoo. "Wow, I thought Chris was unathletic, but he is running really fast."
(Chris)
"I'm so tired, I'm going to drop to the ground!" Yelled Chris, but the cameras weren't on him. "I wish I was in better shape!" At that point the duo were entering the zoo.
(Race Course Stretch 2: The Pokemon Zoo)
The two dashed for a sign that had two cloths on it saying 'Checkpoint'. Kyle was the first to get his, but Chris was able to get it a second later. "Crap, well... they closed the zoo down, why don't I... run in the cages like we're supposed to!" Kyle then went into a Kengaskahn's cage with Chris following.
"I'm going to win!" Yelled Chris as he started inching towards Kyle. "Pant, pant... how am I lasting so long?"
"Oh no you don't!" Yelled Kyle as he jumped out of the pen. Chris followed and they went in the Chansey's pen. "Just give it up!"
"Ne...ver!" Yelled Chris as he put on an extra bit of speed. But soon they were out of the Zoo and at the rest area.
(Rest Area)
"You two get thirty minutes to rest... you ran two miles of the course... three to go." Said the Judge before leaving.
(30 Minutes Later)
"Okay, ready... GO!" Yelled the judge as the two ran off, but before they could get to the corner, a pokeball hit Chris in the head, causing hin to lose balance and hit a dumpster, knocking himself out, and Kyle tripped over the pokeball before slamming his head into the same dumpster.
"You two are done, I want my gym to be quiet again." Said Koga before sending out his Crobat to fly him and the boys to the pokemon center. And Koga's gym emptied out fairly quickly afterwards.
Don't worry, people, this won't take up spots for signups. Also, you can have more then 4 attacks, you're not limited by the Pokemon League.
Powers: Lulu uses her bulk and raw power to deliver strong slaps and punches, and she can use Body Slam. She is also capable of using both Hyper Voice and Sing, as well as Charm.
Appearance: Standing in at 4'10", it would be easy to miss Lulu in a crowd. Or rather, it would be if it weren't for her rather large, pink ears. Her skin is the palest pink, and her short, curly hair is pink as well; a jolly candy pink. She has large, round, deep blue eyes. She is not especially overweight, but her Wigglytuff DNA means she looks rather chubby from certain angles. Her fingernails show how much she chews them in nervousness or excitement. Lulu outfit consists of a loose pair of greyish-brown cargo trousers, a loose, long sleeved, blue and white chequered shirt and a cargo jacket the same colour as her trousers. She wears a pair of old, worn, blue and white trainers. Lulu's skin, just like a Wigglytuff's fur, is gloriously soft to the touch.
Personality: Lulu's the kind of girl who most people would (under normal circumstances) say it's easy to like. She's usually pretty jolly, and loves corny jokes; her round face is usually in a smile, and she tries to make the best of any situation. When relaxed or happy, Lulu often finds herself humming soothing melodies. Lulu likes to take things easy, never rushing into a fight; she's pretty laid back, but not to the point of indolence. If she needs to do something, chances are she'll do it, and do it thoroughly.
Everyone has their bad days, and Lulu's no exception. Her usually cute demeanour can disappear in a flash, and in the twinkle of an eye her enemy can be down on the floor from her brutal slaps or bulldozing. She might also scream at the top of her lungs, which would be quite painful to those standing nearby. As it is, this happens very rarely; usually if Lulu's particularly tired, or if someone threatens someone close to her.
Lulu's a peaceful enough girl, but she's not afraid to stand up and fight for what she thinks is right, and she won't back down when someone close to her is in danger.
History: Lulu was born in Johto, in the small wood next to the Daycare outside Goldenrod City. Her father was a Pokemorph Azumarill who lived in the wood, her mother a Wigglytuff whose trainer left her in the daycare for a while. Wigglytuff couldn't keep her when her trainer came to collect her, so from a very early age Lulu was raised by her father and his Pokemorph sister.
Lulu would often visit the daycare to find out more about humans from the Pokemon that travelled with them, and she received very mixed opinions about them. Some were monsters, others friends and partners. She got to know the Pokemon that maintained a permanent residence there either from having snuck in from the wood or having never been collected by their trainers, and all was going well until one day, when she was fourteen, a trainer decided to leave his Wigglytuff in the daycare for a while.
This Pokemon denounced Lulu, claiming that she was unnatural - a freak. Some Pokemon defended her, but some agreed - after all, wasn't this what a Wigglytuff was supposed to look like? Supposed to sound like? No one had really questioned her before, but now the contempt came flooding in. Lulu ceased to visit the daycare and became concerned about her identity. One day, however, the daycare lady sought her out in the wood and asked her not to become discouraged; she'd seen many Pokemon in her time, and many humans. It wasn't her fault she was both, and it didn't matter anyway. She'd got the best of both, it seemed! Encouraged, Lulu's confidence returned, and she began to occasionally visit the daycare again.

From a journey RP named "Pokemon: Johto Adventures!". It was my first attempt RPing as a human.
Alex walked through the door and then turned and eased the door back into place, not wishing it to slam. She hurried through the gatehouse, smiling at the guard and the boy that were in there talking about high ledges and how different Pokemon appear in different places. When she got outside, she looked around. A few metres in front of her was a high ledge, in front of which was a large patch of grass. The ledge curved round and beyond the corner was a secluded patch of grass. "Let's try over there," Alex said. "Are you ready for a battle, Totodile?" she asked, looking down at her partner. "Totototo! Dile!" the young Pokemon agreed, jumping up and down. Alex bit her lip, resisting the urge to squee over how adorable it was. Then she nodded and looked over at the patch of grass. This time, she wouldn't let it get away. She strode into the grass and headed towards the corner, leaving Totodile dancing. "Toto?" It asked when it realised she wasn't standing there any more. "Dile!" it shrieked, running to catch up with her. She heard it and looked around. "Eeep! Sorry, Totodile!" she gasped, walking back towards the anxious Pokemon and picking it up, before hugging it tightly. "Dile!" it gasped, flailing around. "Oh no!" Alex exclaimed, loosening her grip on the suffocating Pokemon. "I'm sorry! Again! Arrgh!" She put Totodile down in front of her in the grass, and they began to walk together to the secluded patch of grass. When they were nearing the corner that the ledge made, Alex heard a rustle and rushed to stand by the corner, then slowly stuck her head round it. Totodile followed suit, standing next to her shins. Alex's eyes lit up when she saw the Pokemon that was moving around, and she bit her lip in joy. "Jigglypuff..." she breathed. Then she blinked and looked down at her Totodile. "Psst, Totodile. We're going to capture that Jigglypuff." She hissed, trying not to let the Balloon Pokemon hear her. "Dile!" Totodile agreed loudly. Alex hurriedly shushed the small creature but it was too late.
"Jiggu?" The small pink Pokemon had heard Totodile and turned around to see where the noise had come from. It started to walk over to where they were, and Alex decided to throw caution to the wind. She stepped out and greeted the Pokemon. "Hello, Jigglypuff!" she said brightly. The small Pokemon slowly looked up to meet her eyes, fear setting in. "Jig...gu?" Its voice was shaky, and it began to back slowly away from her. "Hey, hey," Alex said soothingly, "There's no need to be afraid. I'm Alex, a new Pokemon trainer, and this is my partner, Totodile. We were wondering if you wanted to have a battle with us. We're both pretty new at this." "Puffu..." The Jigglypuff still seemed uncertain. "A Pokemon trainer is someone that catches and raises Pokemon for battle. They're always looking for new challenges, and they hope to someday be the best. I'm more on a journey of discovery than anything else. I'm really just starting out as a trainer because it's a great way of meeting lots of different Pokemon and learning about them, and it gives me a great excuse to travel the world. I hope to someday be a renowned researcher and scholar, and if I can get a well trained Pokemon team and a bunch of badges under my belt, then so much the better. So, will you have a battle with me?" The Jigglypuff seemed to steel itself. "Jipu!" It nodded and took a few steps back. Alex nodded too, smiling. Totodile stepped forward.
The two Pokemon stared each other down for a few moments, then Jigglypuff ran forward at Totodile. Alex and her Pokemon were totally unprepared and were caught off guard as the small Pokemon executed a perfect pound attack, its fist making contact with Totodile's jaw and sending it sprawling backwards. Totodile's heavy jaw caused it to overbalance and fall over, and it hit the ground, still moving backwards. It came to a rest just before Alex's feet, and she hurriedly bent down and pulled it back onto its feet. "Are you okay, Totodile?" she asked anxiously. "Dile, toto!" it exclaimed, shaking itself to rid itself of its fatigue. "Great!" Alex said. "Now use Scratch, Totodile!" The Jigglypuff had been patiently waiting for its adversary to recover, but now it attacked again, pink fist meeting blue claws as the two Pokemon reached each other. They were almost evenly matched, but it seemed that Totodile had more of a strength advantage, and began to push Jigglypuff backwards ever so slightly. However, Jigglypuff grinned and too late did Totodile and his trainer realise what was coming. With its other fist, Jigglypuff used Pound in the form of an uppercut against Totodile's prominent jaw. Totodile was knocked onto its back once again, and this time Jigglypuff didn't wait to attack again. It was immediately standing over Totodile, continuing to use Pound multiple times upon the Water Type. Alex was shocked by how much power and confidence Jigglypuff seemed to have despite its shyness before. "Totodile," she yelled "Fight back! Use Scratch to block its attacks, and try to hold it off long enough to get back on your feet!" Totodile attempted to do so, but as Alex watched the Jigglypuff continue to knock her poor Pokemon back, she was beginning to despair. Totodile's jaw... It's so easy to target because it's so big... "Wait a minute," she muttered. "The jaw, that's it! Totodile!" she shouted, aiming her words once again at her Pokemon. "Hold onto one of Jigglypuff's paws with your teeth!" That way you should be able to get in an attack!" Totodile obliged, grabbing hold of Jigglypuff's left paw with its teeth. Jigglypuff, shocked, tried to pull its arm free, but was unable to do so. "The jaws of a Totodile are amazingly strong," Alex said to herself smugly. "Now," she directed at Totodile, "Is our chance for a comeback! Use Scratch, still holding on!" Totodile raised its claws and swiped at Jigglypuff, making direct contact and inflicting quite a lot of damage. "Okay! Now use your jaws to throw Jigglypuff into the air!" Finally able to get up, Totodile leapt to his feet and swung his head around, projecting the balloon Pokemon into the air. "Now, when Jigglypuff comes down again, use Scratch to propel it down!" Living up to its 'balloon' title, Jigglypuff filled itself with air and floated gently down. This change in speed took Totodile by surprise, causing it to misjudge the time it would take for Jigglypuff to fall. It jumped to attack the Jigglypuff prematurely, leaving an opening for Jigglypuff. It let out the air that had been slowing its fall and used Pound from above. Thinking quickly, Alex ordered Totodile to use its tail as a spring to land softly. It did so, and so they were back to how they were at the beginning, both worse for wear, panting, weary and tired. "Use Leer!" Alex commanded. At once, Totodile's red eyes began to glow, and when Jigglypuff looked into them, the same fear that had been so apparent before suddenly seemed to set in again and Jigglypuff was frozen to the spot. Alex felt bad to take advantage of it, but as a trainer she had to finish the battle properly. "Now, Totodile," she commanded. "Finish it off with one last Scratch attack!" Totodile leapt forward with its arms outstretched and attacked the Jigglypuff, sending it rolling backwards until the long grass stopped it. It was too much for the poor little Pokemon, and it didn't get back up again. Alex jogged over to it and saw that it had fainted. She bit her lip, then took one of the Pokeballs off her belt. "Here goes..." she said breathlessly. She took a couple of steps back, then threw the ball at the Jigglypuff. In a flash of red light, the Pokemon had disappeared, and the ball lay gently rocking in the grass…
Side: Human
I'm not certain the History is quite up to scratch, I'm afraid. I'll edit it if I need to. :3 xX
Powers: Since Dan is part ghost, he can make his body become partly nonexistent for a while, which allows him to walk through everything except other living humans and Pokemon. Being in this state does not make him immune to attacks though. He can also control shadows and use them to cloak him from eyesight or blind others, which leaves the chance for escape open. However these powers only last a short time, so if he is discovered or unable to escape, he can hypnotise enemies into a dazed state for a few seconds. He can also launch balls of ghostly energy at foes to damage them.
Appearance: Dan is a healthy being for his age. He is quite fit and his body is in great shape. He is about 5'6 and about 50 kg. His favourite clothes to wear are his sky blue skivee, which has long white sleeves, and plain black denim jeans that cover most of his feet. He cannot wear shoes, however, as his feet doesn't have toes, but trail off like the tip of a Duskull's tail.
As he is a cross between a Duskull, he has inherited a few visible qualities from them. For example, his eyes seem to glow a pulsing red colour, and his skin is darkly and unusually tinted. The big one though, is that an extension to his head bones has resulted in a large chunk of bone coming out of his forehead and covering his eyes and nose. It is shaped like the skull mask that a Duskull wears.
Personality: Dan is very shy, and it doesn't help that he is labled as a freak by lots of people. He hates crowds and loud noises, so he finds it useful that he can let the ground swallow him up for a while. If you can make him feel safe around you, however, a very different person emerges. Beneath the shyness is a happy and confident youth who is loyal to every friend he makes (which isn't a lot). His fatal flaw is that when something bad happens to his friends or something he cares very much about, he will charge straight at the offender, blindly unaware of any other threats or oncoming attacks.
History: The first memory Dan can recall was on a tall, misty hill with two Duskull watching over him. He was only three years old. Despite being what he was, the Duskulls cared for him as if he was their own on the same hill, which he later discovered to be Mount Pyre in the Hoenn region. Even though Dan meant no harm to the other Pokemon on the mountain, they avoided him all the same, and he only made a few friends.
As he grew and began to harness his powers, he began to long for an adventure among the humans, who he was sure would accept him. So the Duskulls who cared for him agreed to let him leave. On the day that he was supposed to, though, both of the Duskull were captured in a battle with a trainer who was training his Pokemon. The Duskull were gone, leaving Dan on his own, so he ventured to Lilycove city, the closest town, to find shelter with the humans. Straight away he saw that the humans would be no more accepting than the Pokemon on Mt Pyre, but still Dan pushed on in search of help.
Soon he came across an old lady, who, despite his looks, gave him the shelter he needed in her house. Her name was Delila and she showed Dan a kindness that he had never experienced before. She treated him like a son, and even though other humans saw little of him, she convinced him that they were only afraid of him. Dan worked hard to get the peoples trust, and eventually was accepted as one of them. Life was perfect for Dan. Then he heard of the Rebellion, and what they planned for the humans. He didn't want them to be killed, so he left Delila and caught a boat to the Johto region, were he is at the current time.

This is a sample of the first RP I have ever done.
'You seem to be really glad to be out of that lab.' mused Leo. In return, Hoppip answered him by jumping on his head and propelling itself high up into the air. Leo looked up after it, still running. 'Wow, that was a great ju-'
CRACK.
Leo collapsed to the ground in front of the tree that he had run into, out cold.
When Leo finally came to and the dizzeness was gone, he felt panicked when he realised that is was dark, and stars littered the sky. Hoppip was standing next to him and gave a relieved sigh, before rubbing against him and dumping some berries on his chest.
'Thanks!' Leo said as he and Hoppup scoffed them down. His head hurt like hell, but the pain was fading fast. As he reached for his last berry though, a dark shape swooped down from a tree and snatched it.
'Hey, give that back!' yelled Leo. 'Hoppip, use Tackle on the tree!' Hoppip rammed into the tree and it shook violently. A cry was heard and a Hoothoot fell out of the tree and fell onto the ground. 'Wow, a Hoothoot!' Leo pulled out his Pokedex and scanned it as it frantically searched for it's berry.
HOOTHOOT
THE OWL POKEMON
HOOTHOOT STANDS ON ONE LEG, BUT USES BOTH IT'S POWERFUL EYES TO SEE CLEARLY EVEN THROUGH THE DARKEST NIGHT.
TYPES: NORMAL AND FLYING
'Sounds cool!' said Leo. 'Ok Hoppip, use Tackle again!' Hoppip rammed the Pokemon which was unaware of the oncoming attack. It stumbled back and instantly retaliated with an equally fierce tackle that sent Hoppip flying up into the air. 'Come on Hoppip, show it how hard you can hit!' Hoppip bounced off a tree and propelled itself into the Hoothoot, so hard that it flew right back, hooting all the way. it hit the same tree that had "attacked" Leo earlier and bounced back up.
As the tree shook behind it, the Hoothoot used a growl attack, and Hoppip had it's energy sapped. Right then, a few apricots fell out of the tree and hit the Hoothoot on the head, dazing it just long enough for Leo to throw a pokeball. The Hoothoot dissapeared inside with a burst of red light, and it fell to the ground, rolling around and ringing dimly as Leo and Hoppip looked on...
