Everyone who posted after me: Your posts are all good :3 So yeah. And don't worry Flax, I don't think you have to make your posts a whole chapter of a story long XD
Anyhow, I've said this a trillion times, but I REALLY need to post with Cierra (by the way, I like character interaction too; 'tis definitely the best part of an RP :3).
---RECAP BEGIN---
As we all know, Cierra was on the S. S. Aqua, on the way to Gem Island. During her trip, because it was unmentioned until now, our heroine encountered someone who claimed he could beat her at fashion shows in the Necro Region. Not wanting to lose to this impudent boy, Cierra made a bet with him, claiming that she could not only beat him at the fashion shows, but also win at all the tournaments, which she had originally planned on doing. The boy accepted, and the two walked away from each other, a grimace on each face.
Cierra is now in Necro. Late coming in, she notices Sinclair with some other people. She rushes over, ready to receive her Pokemon.
---RECAP END---
Chapter 1 Begin:
"Isidora Wheeler! You will receive a Misdreavus (in a sapphire-colored Pokeball), a Sapphire Tiara, five Pokeballs, and a sapphire-colored Pokedex!
"And finally, Cierra Riley Clover! You will get a Ralts (in a ruby-colored Pokeball), a Ruby Sceptre, five Pokeballs, and a ruby-colored Pokedex!" That was all Cierra heard. Too late to see what the others got, I guess... she sighed as she walked up quickly to receive her Pokeball. The top was made of what seemed to be pure ruby, while the bottom seemed to have a more opal sort of color. The texture was smooth, sure enough, and when Cierra tapped it against one of her other Pokeballs, it seemed to nearly get a scratch. Whew, really delicate. Better be careful with this one, she thought as she brought out a cloth, cleaning the place where she had bumped the Pokeball.
Turning her attention to the item, Cierra noticed how it was a very gorgeous gold (was it real?) made up the rod and the arc where the jewel went. The jewel was a cross between a diamond-like shape and an egg-like shape; well, it was more or less like a ruby teardrop, to make things clear and simple. Cierra felt the somewhat rough texture of the jewel; it seemed though the roughness only came from the points. The gold part was also smooth (except at the tips of the arc), and it seemed to shine even brighter in the sunlight.
As Cierra walked away from the crowd, she heard the professor call from behind them. It had to do something with a Pokedex. Riiiiight, Cierra thought. Can't start a journey without a Pokedex. She walked back over calmly and picked up what seemed to be hers; it had a ruby color to it as well. She left the professor at will, finally. As she headed towards the Island Path, she looked at her Pokeball. Time to call the little one out, she thought. She pressed the button in the center, and it opened with a red light. As the creature began to take form, Cierra took note of its humanoid features.
"Rauroo!" the creature exclaimed. what was it now? Ralts! Right! Cierra took one look at the small creature, then at her Pokedex. She didn't bother reading the info., but noticed something rather bizarre. Her Ralts had different colored eyes than the Ralts in the Pokedex, and she knew all Pokemon generally had similar features. But as she looked at a shiny Ralts, she noticed how it was blue on the cap-like thing. Definitely like this Ralts.
"Well, you need a name," Cierra said, putting away the Pokedex. "How about Ruri?" The Ralts nodded at the idea, and Cierra smiled. Ruri... Sounds kind of cute, actually. As she headed towards her next destination, she was stopped short by a low growling sound. Turning around, Cierra came face-to-face (or rather, leg-to-face) with a Poochyena. Turning on her Pokedex yet again, Cierra noticed a huge difference with this one. It was a topaz-like color, while the one in the Pokedex was black. She looked at the shiny Poochyena, and recognized it as the one that was looking at her with scorn at the moment. Gasping, Cierra immediately pointed to Ruri.
"Ruri! The time for you to fight is now!" Ruri looked at her, then at the Poochyena, then back at Cierra, a confused look on her face. Oh... wait a second... Ruri is a Psychic type, while the Poochyena is a Dark type... Oh, well, what does Ruri know? Looking at the team stats in her Pokedex (one of the many handy features it had), Cierra noticed Ruri knew Growl, but also knew one more move that proved to be useful.
"Ruri, Will-O-Wisp!" Cierra commanded. The Ralts lifted up her arms and connected them on her chest. A blue flame appeared, and Ruri blew on it. The flames that came at a blinding speed hit the Poochyena on the mark. The creature fell backwards, most likely afflicted with a burn. Unfortunately, there was nothing else Ruri could do now that the Pokemon was burned. But, as she learned from a Capture Specialist back in Johto, Cierra recalled how each Pokemon had a certain capture point. She looked at the Poochyena, and as it rolled over she noticed its chest. That must be it, she thought.
"Pokeball, go!!!" she cried out, releasing one of the five Pokeballs onto the puppy. The ball opened up, and the Poochyena was engulfed in a red light. After waiting a couple seconds, the ball began twitching back in forth. A few more seconds past, and Cierra became tense. Finally, the ball ceased its twitching, and Cierra knew she had caught a Poochyena. Nari... That name is perfect, she thought, smiling at the Pokeball.
"Good job, Ruri," she said to her Ralts, who seemed quite pleased. Recalling her Ralts back, Cierra walked on towards her destination. As she did, she noticed a berry tree containing two Rawst Berries. Perfect timing, Nari will need them. she grabbed the Rawst Berries off the tree, and pushed one towards Nari's Pokeball. A red light appeared, though the ball did not open, and the Rawst Berry vanished, most likely inside the ball.

I need to leave, but yeah. Cierra caught a level 4 shiny Female Poochyena with a Lonely Nature! Cierra gained two Rawst Berries, but now has one.
And don't worry; I'm not gonna have Cierra luck out every time. That wouldn't be fair now, would it? Oh, and I don't have to have anyone say if I catch the Pokemon/gain an item and whatnot, since I am the GM XD But co-owners can still grade me. That is all.
