@Wolf: Eevee is all yours. And item encounters could happen at any time *cough*Early*cough* XD

I thought I had Eevee? Or was I denied?

 

[Jake♫]

I thought I had Eevee? Or was I denied?

You were denied. Although the history was fine, the personality and appearance needed beefing up. If you already did, adding a line isn't enough.

 

[Ru-Kun]

I'm sorry, but I can no longer take part in this challenge. (Now there's going to be a mad dash to Totodile)

 

[King!]

I WANT TOTODILE!

Sorryu. thankls!

 

[Century]

Name: Century (Real name: Chris Hensid)
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance: Century is handsome in the way that could draw you in, for better or for worse. He stands in at 5'11, not extremely tall for his age, but not short either. He feels rather tall, even thought many people are a bit taller than him, but he doesn't mind. He has jet black hair, which smoothly comes over his left eye as all his hair that comes down onto his forehead is pushed to his left, creating a bit of a fringe effect. He has sharp blue eyes, which can seemingly see right through people who fake themselves, as Century has a bit of a knack for that. Underneath his right eye, a deep scar is embedded into the semi-tanned flesh of Century. His five o'clock shadow is evident, making him look older than he really is.

Judging by his average build, you would think he would be on a pokemon adventure, as his average build would make him seem like a good candidate for an adventure. However, his build is rarely seem, as Century is usually seen in a black leather jacket, with a right breast pocket. Underneath his jacket is a shirt of his choosing, usually something in white, so it makes his outfit look more co-ordinated. He usually carries a black backpack which is slung over both of his shoulders full of supplies and food for both him and his pokemon. Over his shirt, a silver chain is visible. A plastic pendant in the shape and color of a Boulder Badge hangs from it, something with some significant meaning to it to Century. On the inside left side of his coat are holsters for his pokeballs. His pants are usually always ripped acid washed blue jeans, with large tears in the knees and a small tear on the right hamstring. His pair of black sneakers finish his outfit, worn with time.

Personality: Century isn't one for too many words. He will certainly carry on a conversation, but he will never let on about himself without persuasion. He knows when enough is enough, and tries to stay away from talking about himself, as he doesn't want to be figured out. He goes under the moniker 'Century' to keep people from finding out about him. Whenever conversation drifts about him and his past, he will always steer it in another direction.

He is very caring for the ones he is close to, as he is quick to form emotional bonds with certain people that attempt to break the surface with him in the right way. He cares deeply for his pokemon, and tries his very hardest to keep them in tip top shape, priding in his care of his pokemon. If he had to, he would give his own food and starve if it meant that his pokemon would be happy and fed. In battle, Century uses strategy and tries not to be rash, planning out the best moves possible so the battle goes in his favor. He will also show mercy on his opponents, not wanting to damage his opponents pokemon, trying to be as caring as possible. His commands seem calm as a slight breeze on a sunny day, never straining too much, and when he's losing, he never lets it show. However, he can show some cockiness when the battle is going in his favor, but he tries not to rub it in. Century's favorite type of pokemon is rock type, as he grew up in Pewter City, before running away to the Johto region.

History: Century was raised in Pewter City in the region of Kanto looking up to the local Gym Leader Brock, who was more or less his idol. Century was amazed with the way Brock would handle opponents with ease and show great pride in caring for his pokemon. A trait that Century wanted. However, he had no pokemon to do so with. Century was often seen at the gym, watching the gym battles against trainers who have travelled far and wide to challenge him. At age 14, Brock noticed him as a mainstay, and one day, offered to train Century. He was ecstatic. He went home to ask his parents if he could get trained by Brock, and they said no.

Century begged and begged and begged, but they wouldn't budge. This enraged Century, who wanted this opportunity so bad, but his parents said no because they thought pokemon 'promoted violence'. This angered Century so bad, he ran away. He managed to find his way to Vermillion City, and caught the first boat out, the boat that brought him to the Johto region. He had only heard of the region before, and now that he was on it himself, it was surreal. Now, he's ready to start his pokemon journey in the Johto region.
Starter Choice: Tyrogue would be great if nobody has taken it now.

RP Sample:

Spoiler:

Century watched as the pokeball rattled back and forth, containing the wild Ekans that he had just battled. It rolled along the ground for a few brief moments, before finally coming to a halt, signaling that the wild Ekans had been indeed caught. He walks up to the motionless pokeball and picks it off of the ground, and holds it in the palm of his hand. His Surskit walks alongside him, and Century kneels down and holds out his palm to Surskit.

"This is the first pokemon we'll catch together, Surskit." Century smiles broadly, as Surskit lets out a small call of joy. He reaches into his leather jacket and places the pokeball containing Ekans into the second of six pokeball holsters as the other one is holding Surskit's pokeball. Century then holds his arm out, and Surskit quickly scatters up Century's arm and back up onto his shoulder, as he stands straight up and begins to continue through the thick grass of Route A.

A few minutes pass, as Century continues to walk slowly, Surskit on his shoulder. His left hand is playing with his necklace of a Boulder Badge to seemingly pass the time. The forest is silent, Century's footsteps the only thing making noise. "We had best get out of here, shouldn't we?" Century looks over to his Surskit and questions. His pokemon seems to nod, and Century continues his walking pace.

"You want to find your way out?" A squeaking male voice behind him says loudly, causing Century to turn around, annoyed.

"Who asked you?" Century turns around and calls, the path behind him empty. "Show yourself!" He yells again, and out from the trees comes a boy dressed in camouflage shorts and a white t-shirt.

"I know the way out!" He proclaims.

"Okay, lets here it." Century speaks slowly, highly annoyed by this small child within the minute they have met.

"You have to beat me in a battle first to know!" He grins.

Seriously? Century thinks to himself. "Fine, lets do this." Century says, and waits for a short amount of time, analytical of what the boy is going to do.

The small boy takes a pokeball from his belt, and tosses it into the path as a red light emits from it, and a small, sand colored mouse pops out of the pokeball.

Century holds up his pokedex to the pokemon.

"Sandshrew, the mouse pokemon." It begins mechanically, "Disliking water, it lives in deep burrows in arid areas. It can roll itself instantly into a ball."

Perfect, Century thinks, It's weak to the water type. This is a sure advantage for me. He grins, as he looks to his Surskit.

"Go Surskit, you can do it!" He calls out, and the water/bug fusion hops off of his shoulder and into the center of the path, where it stares down the Sandshrew.

"Sandshrew, use your scratch attack!" The boy calls out and before both Surskit and Century can do anything, Sandshrew leaps into the air and delivers a scratch attack to the body of Surskit, knocking it on its back.

"Surskit, lets show this kid who's the man around here! Use your bubble attack!" Century commands, and Surskit abides, shooting bubbles in the direction of the Sandshrew.

"Sandshrew! Use your defensive curl! Now!" The boy calls out, but its too late, as by that time the Ground pokemon had been bombarded by bubbles, knocking it flat on its back.

"Surskit, use your bubble attack again!" Century calls out, and Sandshrew is just getting to his feet before he is hit with a barrage of bubbles once again, but this time stays on its feet.

"Sandshrew, use Sand Attack! Now" The boy calls out, and Sandshrew digs at the ground, before managing to shoot some up into the air, blinding Surskit. "Now! Follow up with a Scratch attack!" He commands again, and the Sandshrew flies at Century's Surskit, before hitting it with a scratch attack, causing it to fly back.

"Don't give up Surskit! You can do it!" Century calls out encouragingly. Slowly, Surskit gets to his feet. "Alright Surskit, use a Bubble attack!" Century calls out once more.

"Sandshrew! Go through it and deliver a scratch attack!" The boy trainer calls out. Surskit begins to blow bubbles, and Sandshrew tries to run through them, and begins to succeed.

"Come on Surskit! Use everything you got!" Century encourages, and with those words, Surskit blows more and more bubbles at a higher velocity, before finally blowing Sandshrew back into the ground where he came from.

"Come on Sandshrew! Get up!" The boy trainer calls out to his wounded pokemon. Sandshrew attempts to get up, but fails to do so, now rendering himself knocked out.

"Great job Surskit, we did it!" Century kneels down beside his tired pokemon, and rubs him on his head, before his Surskit falls down, exhausted.

"We aren't quite done here yet!" The boy calls out, before returning his Sandshrew into his pokeball and grabbing another from his belt. "Go Rattata, you can do this!" The boy calls out and his purple rat appears ready on the battlefield. Century pulls out his pokedex from his breast pocket and holds it out to the opposing pokemon.

"Rattata," It begins, "Cautious in the extreme, its hardy vitality lets it live in any kind of environment."

Surskit tries to get up and battle the purple rat. "No, Surskit, you're too tired to battle. Return!" Century calls out, and reaches into his jacket's holster and holds out Surskits pokeball. A red light emits from the ball, and sucks Surskit back into the ball. Century then clips the pokeball back onto his belt and pulls out the one containing Ekans.

You're tired Ekans, but I know you can do this! Century thinks, as he throws his pokeball onto the battlefield. "Ekans! I choose you!" Century calls out, and the purple snake pokemon appears on the battlefield.

"Alright Rattata, use your tail whip attack!" He calls out, and Rattata just stands there and whips its tail. Century thinks for a second, before pulling out his pokedex and looking up what attacks that his Ekans has.

"Ekans knows Wrap and Leer at this level." It answers in a monotone, mechanical voice, before Century returns it to his breast pocket. "Alright Ekans, use Leer!" Century commands, and his Ekans gives Rattata a death glare, scaring it a little bit. However, Century doesn't really notice.

Alright, lets finish this kid. Century confides in himself.

"Alright, use Wrap now Ekans!" Century calls out, and slowly than usual, his Ekans slithers across the path and wraps itself around the body of Rattata, squeezing tightly.

"Rattata, try to escape!" The boy trainer calls out.

"Ekans, wrap tighter!" Century commands, and his Ekans abides, wrapping itself tighter around the Rattata, rendering it unable to move.

"Come on Rattata, you can do it!" The boy calls out. Rattata tries to struggle, but Ekans keeps a firm chokehold going. "Come on! Try harder!" The Rattata tries, but is unable to escape.

"Ekans, finish it! Wrap as hard as you can!" Century commands, and without hesitation, the purple pokemon wraps itself hard around Rattata, before loosening its grip, and slithering toward Century, as the Rattata lays motionless on the ground.

"Come on Rattata, get up!" The boy calls out, and the purple rat is unable to move. Meanwhile, Century is petting his Ekans, congratulating it on its good job well done.

"Great job Ekans!" Century smiles, and his Ekans curls up beside him. "I'm so glad I caught you." He grins, before looking up to the boy. "So, wheres the way out of here?"

The boy grimaces for a second, but slowly sighs, knowing he has suffered defeat. "Alright, go straight and take your first left."

"Thanks." Century glances down toward his Ekans and looks back up, but the boy has disappeared into the forest once more. "Hm. Interesting." Century then stands up, reaching in his jacket and pulling out a pokeball.

"Ekans, return!" He says, and holds out the pokeball toward the purple snake, before a red light emits from the pokeball and touches Ekans, before warping it back into the pokeball. Century puts the pokeball back onto its holster, before continuing through the straight forest, looking for his first left..

[sasuneuchiha]

"Name: Samuel "Sam" Sarube

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Appearence: Sam used to be medium height, but that's from before a growth spurt, where Sam became much taller. He now stands at 5' 10". Over adventurers, he eventually got a touch more buff. He also doesn't wear the same clothes he used to. He used to wear more colorful stuff, but now he wears new clothes. An aqua colored shirt, khaki shorts or jeans depending on the temperature and red shoes, which he's worn forever. He also wears a pair of sunglasses and a red hat. Finally, the main difference is the black jacket he now wears, which has a picture of an Absol on the shoulder. His tan skin goes well with this outfit, as it matches his skintone. He has golden brown hair and hazel brown eyes, which you rarely see because of the sunglasses. In terms of formal wear, Sam carries a sport jacket in his bag for occasions like this. His backpack is yellow, like before. In basic, Sam is very little like what he used to be, in terms of appearence.

Personality: In terms of personality, Sam is slightly different. He used to be a touch rash when doing anything, but now he is much more calm. He calmly assess every situation before doing anything. He also is slightly more distant now, meaning he doesn't get as close to people anymore. Adventures in several regions have caused this, were many of his pokemon were nearly stolen. There's only one person he trusts, and he hasn't seen her in 3 years. Every day, he misses her. Sam is also a bit of a romantic, as he has helped people with several love issues yet never had a girlfriend himself. He is also a bit nervous around people, as he doesn't trust them. The only ones he feels close to are his pokemon, who he trusts completely. He seems a lot happier whenever he's around them whether its battling or just training or even playing around. They're the only ones he feels he can trust any more...

History: Sam has always like pokemon, be even more so after the incident. Living in Sandgem Town, Sam always like to adventure. Once, he went to the route near by, where he was attacked by a Mightyena and couldn't move. He was scared he wouldn't make it back. Yet, the pokemon there helped him. They gave him some Oran Berries to eat so he would be alright. Ever since, Sam has loved Pokemon.

To further knowledge about pokemon, Sam became Prof. Rowan's errend boy. He once went to Oreburgh, where he had a Shieldon guide him to Roark, who had a package for Prof. Rowan containing a DNA sample. However, while Sam and Shieldon were going through the cave, they were attacked by a bunch of wild Onix. They were nearly defeated, and would have been if not for Roark, who saved him. This attack convinced Sam's parents to move to Hoenn, which is why Sam lived in Littleroot Town. He went on an adventure with a girl named Jazmine, the only person Sam has ever trusted. After finishing 2nd in the Hoenn League, only to his friend Grant, he left Jazmine for Kanto.

It was here Sam truely started some self examination. He started training harder and thinking about things more, because his rivals here were much stronger. After a year of training and battles, Sam headed to the Indigo Plateau. It was here that he won his first ever championship and the chance to train with Lance, the leader of the Kanto Elite Four. Lance taught Sam a lot, including the power of a pokemon's inner strength. Sam learned his calm and collected attitude from Lance. It was a year later when Sam left for the Sevii Islands to do more research. It was here he learned about the trainer tower. He trained here for a year, which is when he finally beat the tower's challenge. This was enough for Sam, as he travelled around to the rest of the islands investigating legends and exploring new places.

Perferred Starter: Chikorita, since its the last one there :)

Other: Not much here. Yeah, its Sam again. I love this character :)

RP Sample: The most epic contest battle ever...

Spoiler:

"And now to announce the next round contestants!" one judge said. She said 2 names, and then..."Usagi! And finally...Sam Aaron!" she said. Sam had made it. He was so happy. It was his and Nido's time to shine. "Okay! Let's go!" Sam said, heading out the door of the prep room and onto the arena. His opponent was already waiting. "Heh. So you're my opponent?" She said. "Yeah. That's right. Prepare to lose. I have Usagi to fight in the next round. You hear me, Usagi?! Next round is just you and me. Nowhere to hide and no backing down!" Sam said rather loudly. He was feeling really into this. "So ya know, even if he does win, you won't face him. You lose right here to me, Anne. Go Exeggcute!" Anne said, throwing out her pokeball. Out came 5 eggs that Sam quickly realized were actually pokemon. "An Exeggcute, huh?" Sam said, pulling out his pokedex. It said, "Exeggcute. This pokemon is capable of attack seperate and together. It is of the grass and psychic type." "A grass type, huh? Let's do it! Nido!" Sam said, throwing out his pokemon. Nido came out ready to fight. Kicking up dust, Nido growled at Exeggcute. "Hahahahaha! A poison type against Exeggcute? Just give me the match, judges. This'll be over fast!" she said cruely. Sam knew why. The Exeggcute probably knew confusion. This would be a hard match, but he had promised Usagi they'd fight. No backing down now! "Begin!" the judges said.
Instantly, Anne commanded her Exeggcute to use Confusion. Nido, however, was ready. He dodged it with a swift jump. Oh yeah! Sam thought, confusion can only be moved on one object at a time. So long as Nido moves fast, it can dodge! "Use Peck!" Sam said. Exeggcute obviously didn't have time to dodge, since Nido was 3 feet behind it. Nido's horn, drilled right into his opponent. They flew several feet before falling to the ground injured. "USE CONFUSION!" Anne said. Nido was picked up. Sam knew there was no escape now, so instead he decided to use a support move. "Use Focus Energy!" Sam commanded. Nido started focusing. As Exeggcute slammed it to the ground, Nido was ready and took almost no damage due to focusing it's energy to it's feet to stop it's harsh fall. Nido was ready to go. "Let's do it! Energy to your horn...Peck! Full speed!" Sam commanded. Nido charged full speed quickly dodging left and right so there was no way to hit it. Suddenly, Exeggcute lunged at it, but Nido was ready. He jumped straight up. Exeggcute stoped, looking up. Bad idea. Nido, with perfectly focused energy in its horn fell down on Exeggcute. The 2 second fall had it moving at 19.6 meters per second and the focus energy just added to the pain. Nido struck the opponent so hard, they'd have to replace the field under it. The match was over. "NOOOOOOO! EXEGGCUTE!" Anne cried. "I told you not to underestimate me." Sam said. "Nido Nido!" Nido said. He had just thought the same thing.
Usagi had also won his match, so it was time. Sam and Usagi walked out onto the field. "So! You made it! I was worried when you got paired against my sister..." Usagi started. "WHAT?! YOU'RE HER BROTHER?!" Sam exclaimed. He was surprised. "Yeah. Anyway, let's go! Inaba! Do this!" Usagi said. Inaba came out of its ball ready to fight. "Let's do this Nido!" Sam said, throwing out his pokemon. The two had fought before, but Sam knew Nido was stronger. Especially after what it had just learned..."Use Bounce!" Usagi commanded. Inaba jumped and fell on Nido. Nido looked hurt, but Sam saw what had happened. Nido had put his horn up right before Inaba fell, hurting Inaba badly and what looked to be poisoning it. This was good. "Use Focus Energy!" Sam commanded. He knew this would help a lot soon. "Hm...looks like you're fighting differently now. Use Ice Punch!" Usagi said. Inaba was about to hit, when Sam said, "Focus your energy to your feet! Then jump!" Nido jumped high, nearly as high as Inaba had earlier. "Now Peck!" Sam said. Nido came straight down just as he had against Exeggcute. Inaba, however, was ready. "Double Hit!" Usagi commanded. The first hit didn't do anything other than knock the horn to the side. The second hit, however, did huge damage, hitting Nido squarly into the ground. "Now Ice Punch!" Usagi commanded. He was doing well, but now began Sam's counter attack. "Now! Energy to your feet and Double Kick!" Sam said. Nido kicked Inaba square in the face, then again right in the stomach. Inaba flew several feet before landing. As it looked up to find its opponent, Nido flew straight down, right at it. "FINISH IT! PECK!" Sam commanded. Nido flew in, right as Inaba was commanded to use Ice Punch by Usagi. Who would win? The attacks were about to collide. This was the last move, either way. Whoever hit first would win. Sam stood there, waiting for the hits to collide, thus deciding the match.

Oh yeah! Since you're from Stratagies and Movesets, here's a tip. Jirachi is hax! Remember that xD

 

[Jake♫]

@sasune: Accepted...under once condition. Break up your posts a lot more. Seriously, I can barely even follow that RP sample. Actually use valid paragraphs. That could eventually cost you your place in the RP...
