[PKMN FULL] Apollo: A Journey of the Gifted [T] [OOC/SU]

[Skymin]

i would have preferred you'd talk to me before giving yourself P, but you're lucky that was the amount i was going to give you anyway. please be aware of godmodding in the future.

I'm also going to ask you to remove the last paragraph. I've already spoken to you before about godmodding trainers and how much they give you. please don't 'assume', because trainers also give items as a prize. so please end your post after you beat the trainer.

also, ichiro is correct. there is a difference between interacting with something that has not been interacted with yet and something that someone has already interacted with. so again, remove your last paragraph and most of the second half. also, october had the egg between her HANDS. it would be powerplaying to take it from her without letting ichiro give you permission.

im not sure if this is still open but if it is id like to reserve bronzor

 

[Skymin]

sure! if there's Pokemon in the available Pokemon spoiler, then there are spots open!

 

[Quicksand.]

i hope you dont mind that i reused my character. the roleplay i created her for fizzled out and i was only able to post as her once. also, could you please send me the info on dr jacobi. i dont want to envision her one way and have her turn out the complete opposite.

Spoiler:

Name: Sadie Hunt.

Preferred Starter Pokémon: Bronzor.

Appearance: When people first approach Sadie, the first things they notice are her adorable features. From her pinchable chipmunk cheeks, to her cute button nose and thick pouty lips, Sadie certainly is no eyesore. When she was younger, she was ashamed of her freckles, but now has grown accustom to them, though she still feels a twinge of embarrassment every now and again. Besides your basics, she doesn't wear much make-up for a teenager. Only when it's necessary will she cake it on, but Sadie prefers the natural look and would rather accentuate her assets than cover her flaws.

On a lazy day, you might catch her chocolate ombre locks balled up in a bun, but Sadie typically wears her hair split down the middle in loose beachy waves that reach just below her bust. Sometimes she might wear it in a side braid or even a pony tail; it really just depends on the occasion. As for clothing, Sadie likes to feel good just as much as she looks good. Donning a dark green cargo jacket, the only thing she wears underneath it is a solid black tank top. For her bottom half, she wears light blue acid washed, high-waisted jean shorts. Originally, they were pants, but she decided to trim them one summer. To keep her toes from freezing off in the night, she wears a pair of black socks that reach up her calves and a couple of black creepers.

Roleplay Sample: Slumping through the front door, Sadie sighed in relief as she finally made it home. School always took a toll on the girl and the thought of a quick catnap seemed very enticing. Dropping her book bag to the floor, the brunette kicked her shoes off and called out to her parents, informing them that she was home. Sadie practically flung her clothes off as she dove into her bed. The warm blankets and plush pillows sent the girl to cloud nine, a soft purr escaping her lips. Typically, this would be enough to drive her off into a slumber, but something was different today. Something had been buzzing around in the back of her mind. That something was Apollo.

When Sadie first heard her classmates going on about some mysterious region, she immediately dismissed it as just a rumor. But it seemed as though the entire school was enthralled with the idea of undiscovered territory. No matter where she turned, nobody would shut up about it. There were even girls gossiping about it in the restroom! Sadie couldn't ignore her thoughts anymore. Sighing, she sat up from her bed and sauntered to her desktop.

Plopping into her chair, Sadie had to fight to keep her eyelids from shutting. She lazily typed "Apollo" into the search bar of her browser and hundreds of links popped up instantaneously. Clicking the first link, the browser took her to a site with a lengthy letter written by Professor Ardent Stone that she was too lazy to read. Skipping down, a certain word caused the girl to raise an eyebrow. It was then that Sadie was starting to grasp why it seemed the entire world was talking about Apollo: treasure. Scrolling to the bottom, a telephone number, e-mail, and work address was listed along with the name Hazel Jacobi. No matter how hard she wanted to resist, Sadie knew she would succumb to her curiosity. She just had to enter the raffle.

It had been a few days since Sadie sent an e-mail to Dr. Jacobi. By then, she had figured she wasn't going to be selected. The girl had zero special talents related to Pokemon, but she prayed that the fact that her parents were renown breeders would give her some sort of edge over the competition. After all, countless amounts of people e-mailed the Dr., many of those probably much more fit to explore a newly discovered region. In fact, she would be content with placing second or even third. The runner ups supposedly got some unique gems named Sols and even though she didn't care too much for such knickknacks, they would serve as proof that she at least tried. But it seemed as though luck was on her side, because just four days after her submission, Sadie received a response, informing her that she had been chosen! Sadie knew she wasn't the most suitable, but this was the chance of a lifetime and she couldn't pass it up. She was going to find Apollos treasure and buy herself the worlds comfiest bed.

[Manska]

Yeah, I'm incredibly busy sorry. Short story is that my laptop corrupted a file containing part of an important assignment due in on the 13th so I'm scrambling to salvage that at the moment, pretty much everything RP wise is on hold for me.

 

[Geras]

Anselme VS the JP situation resolved, final edits to the last post made, and new post currently in progress.

 

[Ahri]

I'm gonna resume my RPing and stuff tomorrow.

 

[Kranic]

All I'm going to say is: Finals are coming.

Also I'm sick.

 

[Swolligator]

Other than that, I'm hungover so I'll get to posting in a couple of days' time. :D

Is it to late for me to join?

Name:
Cate Dayou
Preferred Starter Pokémon:
Spritzee ~

Appearance:

Credit icepuppywrites - FanPop
She also wears worn jeans with holes in them.
Roleplay Sample:
It was a bright sunny day, and Cate had nothing better to do. She had awoken to the birds singing the morning song, and reluctantly got up.
With a coffee in her hand, and the newspaper in the other, she sat down and opened the paper up. Reading through it and ignoring the massive front page title labled 'Apollo Region'
Taking a sip from her coffee, out of the corner of her eye, Cate saw a small additional box with a bolder heading.
'Need young, enthusiastic people to go to Apollo and hunt for treasure.'
This caught Cate's interest and she looked closer at the add.
'Will be provided with basic needs as well as a Pokémon to start with.' Instantly enthralled Cate put the paper down and turned her computer on, forgetting her coffee, leaving it to cool. She searched the ad and it came up instantly.
She read through and saw only a few pokémon where left. Looking through she decided on Spritzee, that fairy type pokémon, a new type found in the Kalos region.
She found the address and phone number and picked up her phone, calling the number. After a couple of buzzes, it picked up and a soft elderly voice spoke.
'Hello, Dr. Hazel Jacobi here.' Cate's heart fluttered as she spoke.
'Hi, I saw the ad and was wondering if I could maybe help?' She replied and bit her lip.
'Of course, come over to mine if it's not to far away, I'm sure you know.' Dr. Jacobi replied and Cate nodded self consciously.
'Yep.' She replied simply.
'Good good, I'll see you in a bit then?' Dr. Jacobi finished and once again, Cate nodded.
'Mmhmmm, see you then.' Cate answered and hung up the phone. She dashed to her room, got dressed and leapt out the door, calling on a cab to take her to the address given, her heart racing.

Stepping out of the cab after paying she approached the house and rung the door bell. After a small wait Dr. Jacobi answered and let Cate in.
'I trust your well?' She asked as Cate sat down, her fingers entwined together on a message of nervousness.
'Yep, and you?' Cate replied politely, wishing for her to speed things up. Out of the corner of her eye, she could spot several pokéballs in the kitchen, all waiting.
'Very good thank you, now, down to business.' She said and clapped her hands together. 'As you know, I am searching for a young person to help me find the treasure of Apollo, if you can find it then I will split the reward.' She says then stops to see if Cate was following, then carried on after a simple nod. 'But, as you know, there are others who are going on this journey too.' She said and stood up. 'Come here, these are the things you will need.' She walked over to a table where items where divided in to different piles.
Dr. Jacobi gestured to one pile and then to Cate's bag.
'These are yours, it consists of the basic supplies, 1500poké, and a pokedex to track performance.' She noted and Cate studied the pile. The basic supplies consisted of one Potion, five Pokéballs, an Escape Rope, Water, matches, a small knife, a tarpaulin and a blanket.
'Ok, is that all?' Cate asked, knowing there was one thing left. Dr. Jacobi shook her head.
'You may choose one of these remaining Pokémon.' She stated and Cate looked at the pokémon, spotting Spritzee's pokéball.
'Can I have Spritzee please?' Cate asked and looked at Dr. Jacobi with pleading eyes......

It's not too late, but unfortunately your sign up does lack some things. First off, not only does your appearance picture not work, but the written part of it is definitely not what I was looking for. I'd rather the entire thing be written, with pictures as a optional addition.

Also, your roleplay sample, the concept is cute but your spacing and editing needs to be much better. With the entire post all clumped up together, it's hard to read anything and you spend more time talking than describing the situation. If you want another go, give it a shot, but read some of the accepted SUs or check out some IC posts for a better example of how I prefer posts to be spaced out.

 

[✎ BlueFoxCreations]

That's fine by me, I'll have it up later.

 

[Quicksand.]

i added my roleplay sample to my cs and modified it after your suggestion. sadie isnt really a person that would have any special talents relating to pokemon, so i made her parents breeders just to give her some sort of excuse for being chosen. hope thats enough. :p

 

[Kranic]

Any updates on everyone's status?

 

[Ahri]

I'm still quite busy :/ whenever I think I'm free, something pops up x.x

 

[Skymin]

[Geras]

Made a quick post just to help get things moving again.
