Bugsy's Apprentice:
Name: Silvia Crowley
Age: 16
Apprentice of: Bugsy
Starter: Venonat
Appearance: Silvia is a relatively fit young man. He wears mostly dull toned t shirts: Grays, Faded Blues, Sage Green, and Faded Reds. The shirts fit tightly around his body, showing a built frame with noticeably muscular pecs, and toned biceps. His primary bottoms are usually faded, tight fitting jeans, in either blue, gray, or black color. His skin is fairly tan, and stands out from his simple clothing. His hair is dark brown, almost black, but still manages to catch the light on top of it. He has thick eyebrows and green, nearly hazel eyes that don't catch very much light. They are something that you need to see up close to really appreciate. He has a sharp shape to his face, what we would consider a "Greek Jawline." He would be considered a handsome boy, but that is usually not the case because he always wears a thick scowl across his face.
Personality: Silvia is, plain and simply, a complex person emotionally, and never really reacts in the way that you would. He is generally quiet, always trying to avoid unnecessary tangents. He likes to deal with things as quickly, calmly and effectively as possible. He may come off as rather blunt, because he doesn't see the point in dwelling on things; this is an aspect that usually strikes a cord with others. He doesn't socialize much, preferring to act alone. Silvia tends to feel weighed down by others, preferring (usually naively) to be alone. He is rather confident in himself, and tends to get over-confident when things go his way. He has trouble eating his own words, and doesn't like to admit he is wrong. Once heated up, he will argue and shout for as long as it takes for him to be satisfied, yet another aspect of Silvia that people tend to dislike.
History: Silvia's mother Rosa, was born in Rustboro City, Hoenn. She was always interested in Pokemon, both her parents being workers for the Devon Corporation, her mother in the Specialty Pokeball Sector, and her father in the Fossil Restoration Sector. She graduated from the Trainer School, and became a Pokemon Trainer. She traveled Hoenn, competing in the Pokemon League, and even trying her hand at the Elite Four. She continued her adventure in Kanto, eager to explore a new Region. It was in Fuchsia City that she met her husband, Marc.
Marc was born on Cinnabar Island, the son of a grocer. Upon his parents retirement, Marc was relocated to Fuchsia City, where he began work at 16 at the Safari Zone. He was content with his simple life, enjoying life with his one Pokemon, Tauros. He met his wife, Rosa when she came to try her hand at the Safari Zone. The two fell in love, and relocated to the quiet town of Azalea to raise a child.
Ever since he was young, you could tell that Silvia was a bright kid. He taught himself to read, and never stopped. His growth was hindered by his parents, though, who preferred to do things they way they wanted, rather than make the right decisions for their child. They averted sending Silvia to study in Goldenrod, preferring a simple life with their son. Silvia has been resentful of this, commonly referring to this as the "incompetence" of his parents. Silvia never felt quite loved enough because of this, and grew away from his parents some.
Reason Chosen: Living nearly all of his life in Azalea, not only was Silvia known to Bugsy as a neighbor, but he had a motive, --(Read RP Introduction) :Team Rocket abducted his parents. Under the impression that his parents didn't love him, Silva was surprised when Marc, his father, saved his life with Tauros before he himself was taken, unwillingly leaving Tauros and Silvia alone. From then on Silvia began to build love and respect for his parents, vowing to see them again. After the Rocket Raid, Silvia lived with Kurt, the Custom Pokeball Maker; a friend of Bugsy. Since then, Silvia has treated Kurt like an uncle, being grateful for what he was given. Because the people of Azalea were most concerned with safety, there were no other candidates for Bugsy to choose from to help in her mission. There really were no other options. After discussing the opportunity with Bugsy, Silvia decided it was what he wanted: A shot at Team Rocket. He finalized the deal and was given a Venonat as his first Pokemon.

Whitney's Apprentice:
Name: Kamora
Age: 18
Apprentice: Whitney
Starter: Aipom
Appearance: Kamora's height is the one thing he doesn't like about himself. He is about 64 inches tall and evcen thought he is the oldest of his siblings he is the shortest of his siblings. So to make himself seem taller he wears a hat black hat, with a white ring at the bottom, when he activates this ring it makes his shoes grow seven extra inches and gives him a taller appearance. This appearance makes him look goofy, but makes him tall and that is what matters to Kamora. Along with his goofy shoes, and magic hat, Kamora wears a black vest that covers his white t-shirt, rectangular glasses with black frames,and long black jeans. The glasses Kamora wears have a special tent in them that makes his eye color unknown to others. Kamora's head is usually covered by his hat, so he has cut his hair to be shorter. Kamora has silver hair, and the only one in his family with this type of hair, which is another unique thing Kamora tries to hide from others. However, when Kamora is about to battle he changes his appearance. He takes his hat, shoes, and jacket off. He puts a black wristband around both wrist and then changes his glasses into clearer lens so his opponent can see his eyes.
Personality: Kamora is a fun loving person, who wishes to be a coordinator rtaher than a trainer. He takes time in making his Pokemon and himself look good whenever they are going out or battling. He does not like to talk to people that are taller than him, because most people he meets talk about his size. This has made Kamora someone reclusive to other people and so he only talks to people his size and smaller. This makes Kamora is well liked by children. He is compassionate to others, except tall people, and tries to guide everyone out of trouble emotionally and mentally. However, if Kamora is insulted about his size, he immediately tries to start a fight and destroy the trash talker. Another key quality of Kamora's personality is that he likes to flirt with girls, of all sizes. His size has become the main reason why girls will not talk to him, but he still takes his time to flirt with them, before being pulled away by friends, Pokemon, or family. He usually drops anything and everything to go flirt with the cutest girl he sees.
History: Kamora was born in Johto. Kamora was born into a household, where battling was the only thing that boys should focus on when it came to Pokemon. At first, kamora liked this idea and focused on that, but then three more brothers came. As his brothers started to grow, Kamora started to be looked down upon. he was the oldest of the children, but he was alos the shortest of the children. His parents and his siblings made him believe that his height made him weak and that he wasn't as tough as the rest of them. Kamora started to grow more distant from his family and at the age of 16 left the house to journey alone. Kamora searched for a way to fix his height problem and return to his family so he could be looked on as tough. Two years later, kamora found the technology he needed to be taller and invented his height shoes. These shoes gave him the appearance of being taller, but also made him look goofier. During his journey, Kamora met an Aipom that was smaller than his family. The family left the Aipom and Kamora adopted her as his own.
Reason you were chosen: Kamora first tested his height shoes in Goldenrod City. When he started them up he grew too tall, which caused him and his shoes to smash into the gym. It was there he met and fell in love with the gym leader and promised to clean the gym, until his debt was paid to her. Ever since that incident Kamora has not gone home and stayed with Whitney and her Normal Pokemon. After Whitney battled a young trainer and lost, she became ill. Kamora watched over the gym and Whitney during her time of need. However, instead of closing the gym because Whitney was sick Kamora took the role as substitute gym leader. Kamora battled using Whitney's Milktank and his Aipom. After three days of illness, Whitney found that her gym was clean and that Kamora had not lost a single badge. She was impressed by Kamora's ability to not only take care of her, but also the gym leader position, the gym, and her Pokemon. With such a display of awesomeness Whitney took Kamora on as her apprentice, so that both her and him could stronger together.
RP Sample, or Introduction: Necro's journey While Necro waited for a response from the others, a hellspaqwn jumped in the air and knocked him out. Necro soon awoke two days later and found the cafe empty. "Where did everyone go?" questions Necro. Leon tugs on his master's clothes and points in the forest direction. "Alright, I amy have failed in trying to round the troops, but I know I can help now! By the power of Ursaring I will find them and help them save the cat." Necro dashes off into the forest. Leon quickly follows after him. When Necro finally speeds through the forest, he finds it in ruins. "There must have been a pretty harsh battle. I wonder where the others are? I hope they weren't apart of this chaos. But if they were, that would leave me alone. If I'm alone then that means I have to rely on my own power. In other words, I am about to die to wahetever creature did this." he sighs and puts his head on the ground. While felling sorry for himself, Leon jumps onto Necro's shoulder. After Necro realizes he still has Leon he cheers up. The two get off the ground and move forward into the forest.
As the two are walking they come across a camp site. The two partners investigate the area carefully. The look at the leaves that were used as a bed, some sticks that had been burned and used for firewood, and flowers. Leon deduced that the others had set up camp about two hours ago and then left. "Good work, Leon" compliments Necro. Leon then points to the tracks that have been left on the ground by another Pokemon. The duo begin to follow the tracks. As they walk along the path made of tracks, they also find blood around the area. Necro again fears that the others are dead. When they finally reach the end of the tracks, they both run into a tree. The two dazed by the tree, inadverently walk through the entrance. When they look up they see the tree is flourished and beautiful. Necro is hypnotized and falls into a pitfall. Leon jumps in after him. When Necro finally hits the floor, Leon hits his head. "Leon, watch where you're going next time." scoffs Necro. "Chimchar, chim!" says Leon.
"I was watching where I was going. I just got distracted."
"Chimchar, chim."
"What do you mean 'Like I said'? I was distracted! You could have changed your course."
"Chimchar!"
"Don't make you angry, don't make me angry!" the two squabble. Leon uses Flamewheel, as Necro puts up a Rock Shield. The ramp of the shield launches Leon up, then he comes down with the same speed. Leon releases an Ember. Necro creates another shield above him, but must use the shield that was in front of him. With that the Emver is blocked, but Leon now shoots another Ember from in front of Necro.
Necro is thrown into a plant and on the verge of being eaten. "Leon, help, help, help!" screams Necro. Leon sees his master in danger and uses Ember to burn the plant. Necro embraces his partner in a hug and apologizes for all the trouble. "Now that's over, let's find the others." the duo walk around the tree. The tree seems to be a maze to them. After going around in circles for about three hours, they quickly scream. "We can't find a way out!" and then a vine falls down in front of them. "Lucky us, now we can use the vine and go to the top. I bet the others are up there. It is obvious they aren't down here." Necro and Leon grab the vine and climb up. When they reach the top, they see that it once held a battle areana. The areana has been bashed apart and there are claw and fang marks everywhere. Leon and Necro put their detective hats on, which they just happen to find in the maze, and search for clues. They each examine fine points from the area then share their results.
"Chimchar, chim, char, chim chim."
"I agree that there was a battle and the others won it through the use of beast like powers. This makes me conclude that they also have an alter-ego like my Exodia. In other words we are all linked in someway. However, while we know they 'were' here, where are they now?" the two ponder. As they think, a small piece of light hits them in the face. The two put their heads together and go outside the tree. A red leaf falls from the tree and starts to be blown away by the wind. Leon and Necro, believeing it to be a clue to the others, follow the leaf. They each run and run after the leaf, showing no signs of stopping. They chase the leaf even when the sun goes down.
When the leaf finnal hits the ground, the two find themselves on Cinnabar Island. "Leon, how did we get all the way to an island?" "Chimchar, chim?" "So you don't either. I hope we will find the others here. However, how did we get started chasing a freakin leaf for that long. Are we on drugs?" questions Necro. As they look around for answers a flyer hits Necro in the face. "Festival of Fire, sounds like my type of think, after all Leon is a fire-type." Necro goes around and ask where to find the festival. A jester points him to the ship that is already starting to go. Necro smirks and puts Leon on his shoulder. He manipulates the ground below and creates a surfboard. He then uses his the board to follow after the ship. The chase for the ship continues..."Don't worry guys, i will help get the cat girl back!"

Morty's Apprentice:
![[PokeCommunity.com] A Journey in Disguise - OOC thread](https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v460/qingrila/card1.png "[PokeCommunity.com] A Journey in Disguise - OOC thread")
Name: Edwin Tasselbury, a.k.a. Lupin
Age: 23
Apprentice: Morty
Starter: Misdreavus
Appearance: Lupin is 5'9" tall. His deep brown eyes are clearly visible behind rectangular glasses, because his hair--which is wavy, straw-coloured, and reaches about to his shoulders--isn't thick enough to get in the way. His skin is quite pale due to lack of sunlight, and although he definitely looks and feels thin-figured, he's actually in pretty good shape.
Perhaps part of the reason why Lupin seems a bit intimidating is the fact that he wears all black. All his clothes hug his figure without being tight on him. His coat is especially striking in that sense--it's long enough to reach down to his thighs, and has dark purple embroidery on the bottom, neck, and ends of sleeves. It has a row of golden buttons down the front, and one on each sleeve, and it has four pockets on the outside. He wears a shirt underneath this coat, but no one ever sees it because he always buttons the coat all the way up to his neck. The sleeves of the coat are just long enough to cover part of his hands, which are covered with black fingerless gloves which revel his long, thin fingers. In addition to all that, Lupin wears a pair of black trousers and black leather shoes.
Personality: An outlaw at heart, Lupin has a penchant for sneaking his way around the rules. Specifically, he specializes in stealing things; his strongest skills are in pickpocketing and lock-picking. He always does so in a surreptitious manner, and goes by the motto "quickly, quietly, reasonably" so as to avoid getting caught. ("Reasonably" means "only when necessary" or "not just for the heck of it"). In general, he tends to be a rather quiet person (not to mention he never shouts or raises his voice), and though he'll let friends into his life, he'll still have a hard time warming up to them save for a small conversation on occasion. Most people would see him as being very serious, quite a bit cold-hearted, even a slight bit intimidating--he certainly does have a dark aura about him. In fact, seriousness is the "emotion" he most commonly shows, with perhaps an occasional smirk or fret added in there.
Although Lupin is not normally talkative, he can be when faced with a rival or enemy, in which case his tone of voice can sound a tiny bit pedantic, as if to win them over by wit. He takes on a similar tone when in a discussion group. Moreover, if he's asked a question he doesn't want to answer, he'll try to lead the asker away from the subject. And although Lupin mantains a cold and serious attitude towards strangers and even acquaintances, he sometimes "warms up" a bit when around his closest friends, which he currently has only four of anyway. Even so, it takes him quite a while to form a close bond with someone, as well as to trust someone. In fact, he does have a tendency to be selfish, though there are those times in which he will go out of his way to help a friend, or in very rare cases, a non-friend. One thing he does have is a lot of willpower--he will endure or overcome a perilous situation to the absolute best of his ability.
As far as other things go, Lupin is not too fond of bright lights, and is thus nocturnal. Also, though he doesn't seem to have much respect for people's property, he does have great respect of nature. Thirdly, it's nigh impossible for him to fall in love with or be attracted to someone--I doubt even a siren or love potion would work very well. Last of all, his major weakness is his past, when it catches up to him and finds its way into his thoughts. He gets depressed about it at random times; it is these times when being alone in a remote place is his top priority.
History: Edwin lived the early years of his life in a flat in Lilycove City, Sinnoh. His father worked at a rather prestigious and expensive restaurant called the Golden Swan, although he just washed dishes and swept floors and didn't get paid much. The Tasselbury family was in fact quite poor, poor enough that Dad didn't want a child because it would be too expensive to raise. Mum managed to convince him otherwise, but she really wanted a daughter, and was thus a bit disappointed when Edwin was born. The first three or so years were pretty much okay, but Dad soon got sick of him, maybe even angry for him being a "financial burden". Thus he often took to hitting and even torturing him, in as many ways as possible. (It would probably not be wise to go into detail at this point.) That or he would lock him up in the closet while he went to spend time alone with Mum.
Fortunately, there were some good points. First of all, Edwin eventually figured out how to work his way through the lock on the closet door and his bedroom door. Secondly, he frequently snuck out of the flat at night to explore the city. It was on these ventures that he started to develop his thieving skills, as he needed them to obtain food and money (his parents certainly didn't give him much). Being nocturnal really did have its benefits. Also, as time passed, Mum noticed all the money he had stolen and was actually a bit proud of him--perhaps the family had a second source of income now. Unfortunately, Dad's behaviour and attitude didn't change--if anything, it got worse. Eventually, Edwin decided he'd endured enough of it, and ran away when he was ten, immedately hitchhiking on a ship headed out of the region.
The ship went to Kanto, where Edwin was brought to an orphanage for a while. There, things finally started to improve. Though he didn't care much for the other children in the orphanage, there was one exception: a seven-year-old girl named Yamiko. She was the tiny little redhead whose outfit made her look somewhat like a Kirlia, not to mention she was taking ballet lessons at the time, and thus her most common pet peeve was the "Kirlia Kid". For some mysterious, magical reason, the two got along very well--the friendship seemed to defy Edwin's tendency toward loneliness. However, two months after the day they first met, the two were separated--someone came along to adopt Edwin.
But it wasn't all bad. The new family he lived with had two other sons, and one neighbour who soon became friends with them. Inspired by Edwin's habits and past, the four eventually formed into a gang called the Black Cat Bandits. But this wasn't a violent or foolish gang at all. They were mostly thieves and spies, and didn't pull off any big robberies because they didn't want to attract attention. Also, they gave themselves nicknames, making for extra fun over the years. In that group there was Halberd, the fix-it person who liked to collect knives and even swords; Warren, the amiable Pokemon lover who was usually a scout; Merlin, the bookworm and paranormal enthusiast who did mostly planning; and Edwin Lupin, as he was known from then on, the one who did most of the work.
Once the Black Cat Bandits passed their teenage years, they became less active, and turned to their separate lives. Halberd became a mechanic and strove to become a gym leader as well, Warren went off on his Pokemon journey, Merlin got reunited with his good friend Morty, and Lupin... well, he ended up traveling to Johto, intent on seeing what Team Rocket was up to. However, there was one surprise waiting for him once he got to Violet City: Yamiko, his old friend from the orphanage! Yamiko explained that her Kirlia (surprise surprise) had just been taken from her by Team Rocket, incidentally. The two spent a little more time in Johto, with the intention of spying on them and maybe even getting Yamiko's Kirlia back.
Actually, Lupin succeeded with the latter--he found the Kirlia in a Pokemon storage facility he snuck his way into at one point. What he didn't realise, though, was that Team Rocket had placed a tracking device on that Kirlia a while back (that's how they found it and took it away), and didn't take it off since. So although Yamiko was glad to have Kirlia back, it wasn't too long before Team Rocket found them again. Fortunately, this time Yamiko was able to keep Kirlia away from them, and even destroy the tracking device in the process. Lupin, though, wasn't so lucky. The grunts took him to their own prison, which mainly held disobedient Team Rocket members and other major threats. Its owners had a habit of torturing their prisoners for information, which in Lupin's case was often things like where Yamiko lived or what her Pokedex ID number was, or how Kirlia found its way back to her.
After a narrow escape from Johto, Yamiko went to the other Black Cat Bandits, who tried to come up with another plan to infiltrate Team Rocket, and maybe rescue Lupin in the process. However, the last part wasn't necessary; after about two weeks Lupin managed to escape from this prison, which was a huge shock to not only Yamiko, but Team Rocket as well (apparently he was the first person to have escaped from there). Also during that time, Merlin got a call from Morty, who said that he and the other Johto gym leaders had been coming up with a similar plan. Overhearing this, Lupin decided to make his own contribution to the plan: he thought it would be a good idea to pretend to be a Team Rocket member, but in actuality be spying on and working against them. Morty liked this idea, and thus shared it with the other gym leaders, who refined the details of the plan.
Reason for being chosen: As is said in the last paragraph of the History, Lupin helped come up with the plan against Team Rocket. Well, a few days after that happened, Merlin received another phone call from Morty, who said that he wanted to see Lupin in person, also telling him to come alone. Once Lupin got to the location Morty specified, Morty told him about the final plan the gym leaders had come up with, and again thanked him for his contribution. But that wasn't the only reason why Morty chose him for this mission. Morty was known for being kind of a loner as well, so often times he didn't have any assistants. In fact, at that time, Merlin was his only one, especially because the two had been friends in their childhood, not to mention Morty approved of the research work Merlin had done on things such as paranormal activity and the characteristics of the legendary Pokemon.
Still, why wasn't Merlin chosen for this mission instead? Well, in recent years Merlin had told Morty about Lupin and the other Black Cat Bandits quite often. At first Morty was considering sending Merlin on this mission, but then he thought that the best choice for such a Rocket spy would be someone who has more experience with criminal activity, and preferrably one who already knew a thing or two about the team. He teetered on the issue quite a bit, but something at the back of his mind told him that Merlin wouldn't be a good convincing Rocket. However, since Lupin was already a thief and had snooped on Team Rocket a little bit in the past, he figured that he would be a better candidate. However, there were two problems. First, what if Team Rocket recognised him? However, if he went in disguise, that could be fixed, and Lupin had said he never gave out his name to the team. Second, Lupin didn't have any Pokemon. But that was easily remedied; Morty gave him a Misdreavus he had recently captured.

Chuck's Apprentice:
![[PokeCommunity.com] A Journey in Disguise - OOC thread](https://i389.photobucket.com/albums/oo337/drunkL_L/pkmn-ajid-tc1.png "[PokeCommunity.com] A Journey in Disguise - OOC thread")
Name: Roberto 'Tito' Daviles
Age: 16
Apprentice of: Chuck
Starter: Tyrogue"image removed"
Appearance: Tito has curly black hair, which he bleached yellow, though he buzzes it very short making it hard for anyone to notice. His eyes are a dark brown color, big with rather bushy eyebrows. He seems to be missing two molars on the right-upper side of his jaw, and his veins tend to bulge out rather prominently when angered. Body-wise, Tito stands at the average height. However, he works out intensively, and looks like a pro-wrestler because of his muscles. This alongside a short, black goatee makes him seem older than he actually is.
In the clothing department, Tito, being the ingenuous guy that he is, would walk around the globe barefoot with nothing but his gi on. As a matter of fact, he did just that while he was in Cianwood, but since he must infiltrate the Rockets, he must also copy their clothing style. He thinks of it as 'training'.
Personality: Growing up under Chuck's wing, Tito has grown up to become some sort of a workout freak. Taking each and every opportunity he can to improve on his, and his Pokémon's strength, speed, resilience, and balance. He does things such as using weights to hold up the grocery bags, walk over railings rather than the street, whenever he swims he does it underwater, which makes swimming an anaerobic exercise, and whenever he wakes up early he goes on running frenzies around Cianwood City.
Other than these and those things and perks [and possibly obsessive-compulsive-disorder], Tito appears to be a one way minded person, and generally nice and honest. Even so, the simple Tito is armed with the weapons of hard work and diligence, and will beat up anyone who means either him, or someone he loves, harm. This leads him to be naive and easily fooled, but whenever people lay big expectations on him, he has a knack for not letting them down, and will do just about anything to help out the people he cares about, including accepting certain sacrifices in the name of the 'greater' good.
History: Born in Cianwood City, Tito had always been like any other kid in the small community. Naïve, with dreams of fame, and huge admiration and respect for the one man who had accomplished what they only dreamed of: Chuck. Like it is tradition in Pallet Town to get a starter Pokémon from Prof. Oak, who they all admire, it is also a tradition here in Cianwood City, to study Pokémon training from the master himself. Although Chuck seems like a harsh man, everyone tries his best to train under him, and he likes this since he enjoys teaching to the newer generation.
When Tito came to the Cianwood Gym, he was just like anybody else. What separated him from the rest was his hard work and his diligence that earned him the title of 'number one disciple', and Chuck's trust to go out into a mission as hard as the one that had been planned from the beginning by the Johto Gym Leaders.
Reason you were chosen: Chuck has truly always seen himself a bit in Tito, and he has high expectations of the kid. The way Tito truly enjoys training not only his Pokémon, but also his own body, captivates him like none other. His wife feels the same way as him, and where they both see him like a son; to him they are both his second parents. They also feel that out of all of their earlier disciples and trainers they've encountered, he is probably the guy who is best suited for the job in the sense of being mentally mature enough to avoid any stupid mistakes that would lead to his deception being found out, and he isn't know in the training circuit at all. This factors make him a possibly lethal pain to Team Rocket.

Personality: Silvia is, plain and simply, a complex person emotionally, and never really reacts in the way that you would. He is generally quiet, always trying to avoid unnecessary tangents. He likes to deal with things as quickly, calmly and effectively as possible. He may come off as rather blunt, because he doesn't see the point in dwelling on things; this is an aspect that usually strikes a cord with others. He doesn't socialize much, preferring to act alone. Silvia tends to feel weighed down by others, preferring (usually naively) to be alone. He is rather confident in himself, and tends to get over-confident when things go his way. He has trouble eating his own words, and doesn't like to admit he is wrong. Once heated up, he will argue and shout for as long as it takes for him to be satisfied, yet another aspect of Silvia that people tend to dislike.
History: Silvia's mother Rosa, was born in Rustboro City, Hoenn. She was always interested in Pokemon, both her parents being workers for the Devon Corporation, her mother in the Specialty Pokeball Sector, and her father in the Fossil Restoration Sector. She graduated from the Trainer School, and became a Pokemon Trainer. She traveled Hoenn, competing in the Pokemon League, and even trying her hand at the Elite Four. She continued her adventure in Kanto, eager to explore a new Region. It was in Fuchsia City that she met her husband, Marc.
Marc was born on Cinnabar Island, the son of a grocer. Upon his parents retirement, Marc was relocated to Fuchsia City, where he began work at 16 at the Safari Zone. He was content with his simple life, enjoying life with his one Pokemon, Tauros. He met his wife, Rosa when she came to try her hand at the Safari Zone. The two fell in love, and relocated to the quiet town of Azalea to raise a child.
Ever since he was young, you could tell that Silvia was a bright kid. He taught himself to read, and never stopped. His growth was hindered by his parents, though, who preferred to do things they way they wanted, rather than make the right decisions for their child. They averted sending Silvia to study in Goldenrod, preferring a simple life with their son. Silvia has been resentful of this, commonly referring to this as the "incompetence" of his parents. Silvia never felt quite loved enough because of this, and grew away from his parents some.
Reason Chosen: Living nearly all of his life in Azalea, not only was Silvia known to Bugsy as a neighbor, but he had a motive, --(Read RP Introduction) :Team Rocket abducted his parents. Under the impression that his parents didn't love him, Silva was surprised when Marc, his father, saved his life with Tauros before he himself was taken, unwillingly leaving Tauros and Silvia alone. From then on Silvia began to build love and respect for his parents, vowing to see them again. After the Rocket Raid, Silvia lived with Kurt, the Custom Pokeball Maker; a friend of Bugsy. Since then, Silvia has treated Kurt like an uncle, being grateful for what he was given. Because the people of Azalea were most concerned with safety, there were no other candidates for Bugsy to choose from to help in her mission. There really were no other options. After discussing the opportunity with Bugsy, Silvia decided it was what he wanted: A shot at Team Rocket. He finalized the deal and was given a Venonat as his first Pokemon.
RP Sample, or Introduction:
The Beginning
When Team Rocket took over, it was mayhem. People were scared, never wanting to leave town or mix in with the wrong crowd. They suffered. The whimsical people of Johto didn't know how to live under a narcissistic dictator. They were used to a world where they could do as they pleased, being acted upon minimally by the government. Because of this, commerce, social interaction, and mood have been deeply affected in Johto.
Shouts. Loud scuffling, screams, and unrecognizable other noises filled the night. Silva Crowley woke with a start. He look over at his alarm clock: 2:17 AM. His heart began to race as the screams and shouts became louder.
That sounds like Daddy!
Silva began to panic, torn between the idea of hiding in his room, or going to check. He then began to take deep breaths, still unsure of what to do. As he calmed himself down, he decided to wait it out. No matter where in the house he went, the end result would be the same. The commotion began to shift in the house, coming towards Silva's door. Silva's breathing slowed even more. He got up into the corner of the room, and sat on his bed. He looked to his door, his face now expressionless. As the scuffle reached his door, the flimsy barrier was blast apart, a new scene filling Silva's eyes. There were multiple men in black suits, a big R on their chest. Silva's heart began to race again...
Rockets.
Marc and Rosa were being hauled away by the men, Silva helplessly looking on. In a last ditch effort, Marc ripped a pokeball from his belt, noticing a Grunt glimpse into Silvia's room. He punched a short, fat grunt in the nose, freeing his elbow. He pushed the button on the ball, and sent it flying into Silva's room. The ball bounced twice, and then exploded open. Marc and Rosa were dragged away as the bright figure began to take shape in front of Silva. Tauros finished forming, and then let out a mighty roar as multiple rockets tried to move in on it, but couldn't make any progress, their Pokemon unwilling to make an advancement on the raging bull. The men tried, but knew that they couldn't incapacitate the raging beast. They knew a lost cause when they saw one, and left the house. Silva got off the bed after listening to the last of the footsteps die away. He picked up the pokeball, staring well at the ball.
"Thank you, Tauros. But what about my parents?"
He pointed the ball at the Tauros and pushed the center button. The familiar laser was cast from the ball, retrieving Tauros. The boy sighed, looking out the window, the severity of the events sinking in.
What do I do?
He looked around his room, finding his backpack. He wasn't sure if he was going anywhere, but he wanted to be ready to. He stuffed his favorite clothes in, along with a toothbrush, toothpaste, his favorite toys, and Tauros' Pokeball. He grabbed his Life Size Dratini Pillow, and left the house, making sure all the lights were out. He shut the door, and locked it with the key.
Where should I go? The Pokemon Center?
Silva began to walk, taking a right from his south facing house. He looked toward the skyline, Slowpoke Well in the distance. A shout broke the silence.
"Is there anyone still out here? Civilians of Azalea are meeting up for safety at the Gym!"
Silva didn't reply, unsure of who the shouter was. He crept his way, across town, to the gym. He looked into the window, trying to avoid another ambush. There were his neighbors, huddled around one person standing up, a Scyther beside them. Silva rounded the corner, reaching for the doorknob. Before entering, he took one last look in the direction of his house.
Mommy? Daddy?

Whitney's Apprentice:
Spoiler:
Name: Kamora
Age: 18
Apprentice: Whitney
Starter: Aipom
Appearance: Kamora's height is the one thing he doesn't like about himself. He is about 64 inches tall and evcen thought he is the oldest of his siblings he is the shortest of his siblings. So to make himself seem taller he wears a hat black hat, with a white ring at the bottom, when he activates this ring it makes his shoes grow seven extra inches and gives him a taller appearance. This appearance makes him look goofy, but makes him tall and that is what matters to Kamora. Along with his goofy shoes, and magic hat, Kamora wears a black vest that covers his white t-shirt, rectangular glasses with black frames,and long black jeans. The glasses Kamora wears have a special tent in them that makes his eye color unknown to others. Kamora's head is usually covered by his hat, so he has cut his hair to be shorter. Kamora has silver hair, and the only one in his family with this type of hair, which is another unique thing Kamora tries to hide from others. However, when Kamora is about to battle he changes his appearance. He takes his hat, shoes, and jacket off. He puts a black wristband around both wrist and then changes his glasses into clearer lens so his opponent can see his eyes.
Personality: Kamora is a fun loving person, who wishes to be a coordinator rtaher than a trainer. He takes time in making his Pokemon and himself look good whenever they are going out or battling. He does not like to talk to people that are taller than him, because most people he meets talk about his size. This has made Kamora someone reclusive to other people and so he only talks to people his size and smaller. This makes Kamora is well liked by children. He is compassionate to others, except tall people, and tries to guide everyone out of trouble emotionally and mentally. However, if Kamora is insulted about his size, he immediately tries to start a fight and destroy the trash talker. Another key quality of Kamora's personality is that he likes to flirt with girls, of all sizes. His size has become the main reason why girls will not talk to him, but he still takes his time to flirt with them, before being pulled away by friends, Pokemon, or family. He usually drops anything and everything to go flirt with the cutest girl he sees.
History: Kamora was born in Johto. Kamora was born into a household, where battling was the only thing that boys should focus on when it came to Pokemon. At first, kamora liked this idea and focused on that, but then three more brothers came. As his brothers started to grow, Kamora started to be looked down upon. he was the oldest of the children, but he was alos the shortest of the children. His parents and his siblings made him believe that his height made him weak and that he wasn't as tough as the rest of them. Kamora started to grow more distant from his family and at the age of 16 left the house to journey alone. Kamora searched for a way to fix his height problem and return to his family so he could be looked on as tough. Two years later, kamora found the technology he needed to be taller and invented his height shoes. These shoes gave him the appearance of being taller, but also made him look goofier. During his journey, Kamora met an Aipom that was smaller than his family. The family left the Aipom and Kamora adopted her as his own.
Reason you were chosen: Kamora first tested his height shoes in Goldenrod City. When he started them up he grew too tall, which caused him and his shoes to smash into the gym. It was there he met and fell in love with the gym leader and promised to clean the gym, until his debt was paid to her. Ever since that incident Kamora has not gone home and stayed with Whitney and her Normal Pokemon. After Whitney battled a young trainer and lost, she became ill. Kamora watched over the gym and Whitney during her time of need. However, instead of closing the gym because Whitney was sick Kamora took the role as substitute gym leader. Kamora battled using Whitney's Milktank and his Aipom. After three days of illness, Whitney found that her gym was clean and that Kamora had not lost a single badge. She was impressed by Kamora's ability to not only take care of her, but also the gym leader position, the gym, and her Pokemon. With such a display of awesomeness Whitney took Kamora on as her apprentice, so that both her and him could stronger together.
RP Sample, or Introduction: Necro's journey While Necro waited for a response from the others, a hellspaqwn jumped in the air and knocked him out. Necro soon awoke two days later and found the cafe empty. "Where did everyone go?" questions Necro. Leon tugs on his master's clothes and points in the forest direction. "Alright, I amy have failed in trying to round the troops, but I know I can help now! By the power of Ursaring I will find them and help them save the cat." Necro dashes off into the forest. Leon quickly follows after him. When Necro finally speeds through the forest, he finds it in ruins. "There must have been a pretty harsh battle. I wonder where the others are? I hope they weren't apart of this chaos. But if they were, that would leave me alone. If I'm alone then that means I have to rely on my own power. In other words, I am about to die to wahetever creature did this." he sighs and puts his head on the ground. While felling sorry for himself, Leon jumps onto Necro's shoulder. After Necro realizes he still has Leon he cheers up. The two get off the ground and move forward into the forest.
As the two are walking they come across a camp site. The two partners investigate the area carefully. The look at the leaves that were used as a bed, some sticks that had been burned and used for firewood, and flowers. Leon deduced that the others had set up camp about two hours ago and then left. "Good work, Leon" compliments Necro. Leon then points to the tracks that have been left on the ground by another Pokemon. The duo begin to follow the tracks. As they walk along the path made of tracks, they also find blood around the area. Necro again fears that the others are dead. When they finally reach the end of the tracks, they both run into a tree. The two dazed by the tree, inadverently walk through the entrance. When they look up they see the tree is flourished and beautiful. Necro is hypnotized and falls into a pitfall. Leon jumps in after him. When Necro finally hits the floor, Leon hits his head. "Leon, watch where you're going next time." scoffs Necro. "Chimchar, chim!" says Leon.
"I was watching where I was going. I just got distracted."
"Chimchar, chim."
"What do you mean 'Like I said'? I was distracted! You could have changed your course."
"Chimchar!"
"Don't make you angry, don't make me angry!" the two squabble. Leon uses Flamewheel, as Necro puts up a Rock Shield. The ramp of the shield launches Leon up, then he comes down with the same speed. Leon releases an Ember. Necro creates another shield above him, but must use the shield that was in front of him. With that the Emver is blocked, but Leon now shoots another Ember from in front of Necro.
Necro is thrown into a plant and on the verge of being eaten. "Leon, help, help, help!" screams Necro. Leon sees his master in danger and uses Ember to burn the plant. Necro embraces his partner in a hug and apologizes for all the trouble. "Now that's over, let's find the others." the duo walk around the tree. The tree seems to be a maze to them. After going around in circles for about three hours, they quickly scream. "We can't find a way out!" and then a vine falls down in front of them. "Lucky us, now we can use the vine and go to the top. I bet the others are up there. It is obvious they aren't down here." Necro and Leon grab the vine and climb up. When they reach the top, they see that it once held a battle areana. The areana has been bashed apart and there are claw and fang marks everywhere. Leon and Necro put their detective hats on, which they just happen to find in the maze, and search for clues. They each examine fine points from the area then share their results.
"Chimchar, chim, char, chim chim."
"I agree that there was a battle and the others won it through the use of beast like powers. This makes me conclude that they also have an alter-ego like my Exodia. In other words we are all linked in someway. However, while we know they 'were' here, where are they now?" the two ponder. As they think, a small piece of light hits them in the face. The two put their heads together and go outside the tree. A red leaf falls from the tree and starts to be blown away by the wind. Leon and Necro, believeing it to be a clue to the others, follow the leaf. They each run and run after the leaf, showing no signs of stopping. They chase the leaf even when the sun goes down.
When the leaf finnal hits the ground, the two find themselves on Cinnabar Island. "Leon, how did we get all the way to an island?" "Chimchar, chim?" "So you don't either. I hope we will find the others here. However, how did we get started chasing a freakin leaf for that long. Are we on drugs?" questions Necro. As they look around for answers a flyer hits Necro in the face. "Festival of Fire, sounds like my type of think, after all Leon is a fire-type." Necro goes around and ask where to find the festival. A jester points him to the ship that is already starting to go. Necro smirks and puts Leon on his shoulder. He manipulates the ground below and creates a surfboard. He then uses his the board to follow after the ship. The chase for the ship continues..."Don't worry guys, i will help get the cat girl back!"

Morty's Apprentice:
Spoiler:
Name: Edwin Tasselbury, a.k.a. Lupin
Age: 23
Apprentice: Morty
Starter: Misdreavus
Appearance: Lupin is 5'9" tall. His deep brown eyes are clearly visible behind rectangular glasses, because his hair--which is wavy, straw-coloured, and reaches about to his shoulders--isn't thick enough to get in the way. His skin is quite pale due to lack of sunlight, and although he definitely looks and feels thin-figured, he's actually in pretty good shape.
Perhaps part of the reason why Lupin seems a bit intimidating is the fact that he wears all black. All his clothes hug his figure without being tight on him. His coat is especially striking in that sense--it's long enough to reach down to his thighs, and has dark purple embroidery on the bottom, neck, and ends of sleeves. It has a row of golden buttons down the front, and one on each sleeve, and it has four pockets on the outside. He wears a shirt underneath this coat, but no one ever sees it because he always buttons the coat all the way up to his neck. The sleeves of the coat are just long enough to cover part of his hands, which are covered with black fingerless gloves which revel his long, thin fingers. In addition to all that, Lupin wears a pair of black trousers and black leather shoes.
Personality: An outlaw at heart, Lupin has a penchant for sneaking his way around the rules. Specifically, he specializes in stealing things; his strongest skills are in pickpocketing and lock-picking. He always does so in a surreptitious manner, and goes by the motto "quickly, quietly, reasonably" so as to avoid getting caught. ("Reasonably" means "only when necessary" or "not just for the heck of it"). In general, he tends to be a rather quiet person (not to mention he never shouts or raises his voice), and though he'll let friends into his life, he'll still have a hard time warming up to them save for a small conversation on occasion. Most people would see him as being very serious, quite a bit cold-hearted, even a slight bit intimidating--he certainly does have a dark aura about him. In fact, seriousness is the "emotion" he most commonly shows, with perhaps an occasional smirk or fret added in there.
Although Lupin is not normally talkative, he can be when faced with a rival or enemy, in which case his tone of voice can sound a tiny bit pedantic, as if to win them over by wit. He takes on a similar tone when in a discussion group. Moreover, if he's asked a question he doesn't want to answer, he'll try to lead the asker away from the subject. And although Lupin mantains a cold and serious attitude towards strangers and even acquaintances, he sometimes "warms up" a bit when around his closest friends, which he currently has only four of anyway. Even so, it takes him quite a while to form a close bond with someone, as well as to trust someone. In fact, he does have a tendency to be selfish, though there are those times in which he will go out of his way to help a friend, or in very rare cases, a non-friend. One thing he does have is a lot of willpower--he will endure or overcome a perilous situation to the absolute best of his ability.
As far as other things go, Lupin is not too fond of bright lights, and is thus nocturnal. Also, though he doesn't seem to have much respect for people's property, he does have great respect of nature. Thirdly, it's nigh impossible for him to fall in love with or be attracted to someone--I doubt even a siren or love potion would work very well. Last of all, his major weakness is his past, when it catches up to him and finds its way into his thoughts. He gets depressed about it at random times; it is these times when being alone in a remote place is his top priority.
History: Edwin lived the early years of his life in a flat in Lilycove City, Sinnoh. His father worked at a rather prestigious and expensive restaurant called the Golden Swan, although he just washed dishes and swept floors and didn't get paid much. The Tasselbury family was in fact quite poor, poor enough that Dad didn't want a child because it would be too expensive to raise. Mum managed to convince him otherwise, but she really wanted a daughter, and was thus a bit disappointed when Edwin was born. The first three or so years were pretty much okay, but Dad soon got sick of him, maybe even angry for him being a "financial burden". Thus he often took to hitting and even torturing him, in as many ways as possible. (It would probably not be wise to go into detail at this point.) That or he would lock him up in the closet while he went to spend time alone with Mum.
Fortunately, there were some good points. First of all, Edwin eventually figured out how to work his way through the lock on the closet door and his bedroom door. Secondly, he frequently snuck out of the flat at night to explore the city. It was on these ventures that he started to develop his thieving skills, as he needed them to obtain food and money (his parents certainly didn't give him much). Being nocturnal really did have its benefits. Also, as time passed, Mum noticed all the money he had stolen and was actually a bit proud of him--perhaps the family had a second source of income now. Unfortunately, Dad's behaviour and attitude didn't change--if anything, it got worse. Eventually, Edwin decided he'd endured enough of it, and ran away when he was ten, immedately hitchhiking on a ship headed out of the region.
The ship went to Kanto, where Edwin was brought to an orphanage for a while. There, things finally started to improve. Though he didn't care much for the other children in the orphanage, there was one exception: a seven-year-old girl named Yamiko. She was the tiny little redhead whose outfit made her look somewhat like a Kirlia, not to mention she was taking ballet lessons at the time, and thus her most common pet peeve was the "Kirlia Kid". For some mysterious, magical reason, the two got along very well--the friendship seemed to defy Edwin's tendency toward loneliness. However, two months after the day they first met, the two were separated--someone came along to adopt Edwin.
But it wasn't all bad. The new family he lived with had two other sons, and one neighbour who soon became friends with them. Inspired by Edwin's habits and past, the four eventually formed into a gang called the Black Cat Bandits. But this wasn't a violent or foolish gang at all. They were mostly thieves and spies, and didn't pull off any big robberies because they didn't want to attract attention. Also, they gave themselves nicknames, making for extra fun over the years. In that group there was Halberd, the fix-it person who liked to collect knives and even swords; Warren, the amiable Pokemon lover who was usually a scout; Merlin, the bookworm and paranormal enthusiast who did mostly planning; and Edwin Lupin, as he was known from then on, the one who did most of the work.
Once the Black Cat Bandits passed their teenage years, they became less active, and turned to their separate lives. Halberd became a mechanic and strove to become a gym leader as well, Warren went off on his Pokemon journey, Merlin got reunited with his good friend Morty, and Lupin... well, he ended up traveling to Johto, intent on seeing what Team Rocket was up to. However, there was one surprise waiting for him once he got to Violet City: Yamiko, his old friend from the orphanage! Yamiko explained that her Kirlia (surprise surprise) had just been taken from her by Team Rocket, incidentally. The two spent a little more time in Johto, with the intention of spying on them and maybe even getting Yamiko's Kirlia back.
Actually, Lupin succeeded with the latter--he found the Kirlia in a Pokemon storage facility he snuck his way into at one point. What he didn't realise, though, was that Team Rocket had placed a tracking device on that Kirlia a while back (that's how they found it and took it away), and didn't take it off since. So although Yamiko was glad to have Kirlia back, it wasn't too long before Team Rocket found them again. Fortunately, this time Yamiko was able to keep Kirlia away from them, and even destroy the tracking device in the process. Lupin, though, wasn't so lucky. The grunts took him to their own prison, which mainly held disobedient Team Rocket members and other major threats. Its owners had a habit of torturing their prisoners for information, which in Lupin's case was often things like where Yamiko lived or what her Pokedex ID number was, or how Kirlia found its way back to her.
After a narrow escape from Johto, Yamiko went to the other Black Cat Bandits, who tried to come up with another plan to infiltrate Team Rocket, and maybe rescue Lupin in the process. However, the last part wasn't necessary; after about two weeks Lupin managed to escape from this prison, which was a huge shock to not only Yamiko, but Team Rocket as well (apparently he was the first person to have escaped from there). Also during that time, Merlin got a call from Morty, who said that he and the other Johto gym leaders had been coming up with a similar plan. Overhearing this, Lupin decided to make his own contribution to the plan: he thought it would be a good idea to pretend to be a Team Rocket member, but in actuality be spying on and working against them. Morty liked this idea, and thus shared it with the other gym leaders, who refined the details of the plan.
Reason for being chosen: As is said in the last paragraph of the History, Lupin helped come up with the plan against Team Rocket. Well, a few days after that happened, Merlin received another phone call from Morty, who said that he wanted to see Lupin in person, also telling him to come alone. Once Lupin got to the location Morty specified, Morty told him about the final plan the gym leaders had come up with, and again thanked him for his contribution. But that wasn't the only reason why Morty chose him for this mission. Morty was known for being kind of a loner as well, so often times he didn't have any assistants. In fact, at that time, Merlin was his only one, especially because the two had been friends in their childhood, not to mention Morty approved of the research work Merlin had done on things such as paranormal activity and the characteristics of the legendary Pokemon.
Still, why wasn't Merlin chosen for this mission instead? Well, in recent years Merlin had told Morty about Lupin and the other Black Cat Bandits quite often. At first Morty was considering sending Merlin on this mission, but then he thought that the best choice for such a Rocket spy would be someone who has more experience with criminal activity, and preferrably one who already knew a thing or two about the team. He teetered on the issue quite a bit, but something at the back of his mind told him that Merlin wouldn't be a good convincing Rocket. However, since Lupin was already a thief and had snooped on Team Rocket a little bit in the past, he figured that he would be a better candidate. However, there were two problems. First, what if Team Rocket recognised him? However, if he went in disguise, that could be fixed, and Lupin had said he never gave out his name to the team. Second, Lupin didn't have any Pokemon. But that was easily remedied; Morty gave him a Misdreavus he had recently captured.

Chuck's Apprentice:
Spoiler:
Name: Roberto 'Tito' Daviles
Age: 16
Apprentice of: Chuck
Starter: Tyrogue"image removed"
Appearance: Tito has curly black hair, which he bleached yellow, though he buzzes it very short making it hard for anyone to notice. His eyes are a dark brown color, big with rather bushy eyebrows. He seems to be missing two molars on the right-upper side of his jaw, and his veins tend to bulge out rather prominently when angered. Body-wise, Tito stands at the average height. However, he works out intensively, and looks like a pro-wrestler because of his muscles. This alongside a short, black goatee makes him seem older than he actually is.
In the clothing department, Tito, being the ingenuous guy that he is, would walk around the globe barefoot with nothing but his gi on. As a matter of fact, he did just that while he was in Cianwood, but since he must infiltrate the Rockets, he must also copy their clothing style. He thinks of it as 'training'.
Personality: Growing up under Chuck's wing, Tito has grown up to become some sort of a workout freak. Taking each and every opportunity he can to improve on his, and his Pokémon's strength, speed, resilience, and balance. He does things such as using weights to hold up the grocery bags, walk over railings rather than the street, whenever he swims he does it underwater, which makes swimming an anaerobic exercise, and whenever he wakes up early he goes on running frenzies around Cianwood City.
Other than these and those things and perks [and possibly obsessive-compulsive-disorder], Tito appears to be a one way minded person, and generally nice and honest. Even so, the simple Tito is armed with the weapons of hard work and diligence, and will beat up anyone who means either him, or someone he loves, harm. This leads him to be naive and easily fooled, but whenever people lay big expectations on him, he has a knack for not letting them down, and will do just about anything to help out the people he cares about, including accepting certain sacrifices in the name of the 'greater' good.
History: Born in Cianwood City, Tito had always been like any other kid in the small community. Naïve, with dreams of fame, and huge admiration and respect for the one man who had accomplished what they only dreamed of: Chuck. Like it is tradition in Pallet Town to get a starter Pokémon from Prof. Oak, who they all admire, it is also a tradition here in Cianwood City, to study Pokémon training from the master himself. Although Chuck seems like a harsh man, everyone tries his best to train under him, and he likes this since he enjoys teaching to the newer generation.
When Tito came to the Cianwood Gym, he was just like anybody else. What separated him from the rest was his hard work and his diligence that earned him the title of 'number one disciple', and Chuck's trust to go out into a mission as hard as the one that had been planned from the beginning by the Johto Gym Leaders.
Reason you were chosen: Chuck has truly always seen himself a bit in Tito, and he has high expectations of the kid. The way Tito truly enjoys training not only his Pokémon, but also his own body, captivates him like none other. His wife feels the same way as him, and where they both see him like a son; to him they are both his second parents. They also feel that out of all of their earlier disciples and trainers they've encountered, he is probably the guy who is best suited for the job in the sense of being mentally mature enough to avoid any stupid mistakes that would lead to his deception being found out, and he isn't know in the training circuit at all. This factors make him a possibly lethal pain to Team Rocket.
