I can label this entire RP in one word. Different. So if you like more of the same, then feel free to skip on by this one. But if you like something out of the ordinary, then here's your spot.
Plot-
AW takes place in a world much the same as the world of Pokemon. wild Pokemon still roam free and humans still live in advanced cites. The difference is, however, one that is very huge.
In AW, there are no trainers. In fact there aren't even any Pokeballs (yes this includes all Pokeball symbols as well), Pokecenters, or any of the like.
Instead, the Pokemon and humans share a different sort of bond, called a life bond. While still in their toddler years, a child is taken to a large auditorium where they are attracted to a Pokemon egg. when these eggs hatch the Pokemon inside them and the children are immediately bonded. some say that the bond comes from before then, but it's still being debated.
These Life bonds give their humans the ability to understand only what their Pokemon is saying when they talk, and vice versa. This has allowed for the exact understanding of all Pokemon between the fact that booth the humans and the Pokemon translate for each other. Also the Pokemon and the human usually develop similar personalties, or at least cover up the flaws in each others. And the are some people who tend to look ore and more like their Pokemon as they age.
And now for the fun part.
Pokebattles are done in a different measure than normal. Instead of humans giving out orders to their Pokemon, humans and Pokemon work together in combat side by side. Pokemon still use their attacks and physical strengths in battle but the humans have taken to using weapons. Some humans have even copied the way of fighting from their Pokemon to do battle with as with an example of most blackbelts and their fighting-types. Usually though, humans are somehow able, thought to be through the special life bonds, to learn a single maneuver that their Pokemon knows or has learned at one point. Still unsure of how a human can generate enough electricity to pull of a thunderbolt or do anything of the like. But they are able to none the less.
And that should just about cover the life bond issues.
Now on with the story.
Under the reign of King Leon II and his Arcanine (yes, a life binded Pokemon ad a human both share the same amount of respect and power. So technically Arcanine is king as well), the Kingdom of Areatha has flourished greatly. Technology like pokenavs and the like have been spread around the kingdom.
That is, until the war started. Klonos, the island empire run by the Emperor Nero and Empoleon (duh.. i wonder why empoleon is emperor?), has launched an unexpected attack on Areatha and devastated the coastal cities in a fell swoop. Klonoses' Generals Winnoah and Vaporeon and Jack and Blastoise then began their campaign into the heart of the kingdom. With the splitting of their forces Winoah began to march deep into the the outskirts of the kingdom and onto the fourth largest city, Waterfall City.
Over crowded with refugees the city mounted it's guard with a reinforced garrison of troupes. but being an outskirt city, it had had it's main fighting force taken for the good of the main front out on the sea in the earlier stages of the war. But the city overcrowded and under protected was too great a lure for Winoah and Vaporen to pass up. So they began siege of the city, easily taking it. It was to be yet another crippling defeat for the kingdom in favor of the Empire. Or were Winoah's intentions strictly political?
And to make matters worse is the fact that the Grand General Lord Lance and Charizard, have gone missing for more than a month. With the loss of such a great tactical mind and a hero to the people, what else is on the horizon? And why has Winoah brought her toddler daughter with her?
Whew finally over...
Character Info-
This RP will start out immediately after the siege of Waterfall City. Easy enough right? And to start out there will be three types of characters, though they really won't matter after a while unless some surprising thing pops up. For the most part we'll be in a group.
Anyway the three character types are a soldier, refugee, and league battler. Soldier means that you fought to protect the city and are still part of Areatha Army. Refugee is quite simple; you are fleeing from the war and are trying to get to safety after your home or town was occupied or destroyed. And league battler is just a plain and simple teenager who competes in the Battle leagues. For reference there was a tournament going on before the attack.
Now the different types also affect the age of your character. As previously stated, league battler is usually a teenager or young adult. Soldier is next and is predominately age 21-33. And finally a refugee can be any age, but lacks the same amount of combat expertise as the other two. Note i want a steady ratio of teach, so be prepared that if I get too many league battlers (which I expect), for your character to be cut over a lesser character who's a different type.
And also by weapon I mean no guns, chainsaws, or anything else overly extravagant. If you really don't understand, go look at the sorts of weapons used by lets saw... World of Warcraft or some other standard RPG. And when making you Pokemon selection, please remember that a Pokemon evolves with training and time, so i don't want to see and 13 year olds with a Dragonite okay?
And lastly, the human's move. humans find it easier to learn certain mover than others. Of course, normal moves top the list, being that humans actually can preform them. Next are fighting, dark and psychic moves, obviously. Poison, fire, and grass follow the in the next tier. And lastly are the others. note that bye having a human who can use a move in the third tier is a humans who has had serious training. Again, no 13 year old should be able to use dragon rage.

Name: Jeth
Pokemon: Quilava
Character Type: League battler
Weapon: Iron Pole
Human's Move: Flame wheel
Age: 17
Appearance:
Height: 5'11
Bio: Born in Ironstone City where he was raised by his militaristic uncle. This was becuase his mom died in childbirth and his dad is a soldier who was constantly being called away on missions. However, this didn't lead to a lax lifestyle at all. Him and his cyndaquil were drilled daily as if they were new recruits. Whipping discipline into the two with daily marathons and billions of push-ups, they rarely acted up for fear of punishment when they were little still. However, when the two turn into their teenage years and Cyndaquil evolved, for some reason they decided to rebel against the system a bit: bending rules and cutting corners to annoy their uncle.Of course many push-ups and runs resulted.
At the age of 14, the two decided to test their luck in the League battling Circuit. Relying on their years of strict military combat expertise, they did moderately well. Not shining or standing out, they decision wasn't well received by their uncle and his pokemon, but little did they care.
The two were just finishing a invitational tournament when Waterfall city was attacked.
Personality: Generally, Jeth is sort of a mild trickster, pulling pranks at the request of his pokemon. But he does know his limits and adhears to rules and tasks well. His pokemon, Quilava, is altogether different. A grand prankster and very lazy usually, he doesn't seem to like to ever follow the rules becuase he's supposedly "had his share" during them, growing up.
In battle the two act as if they are completely different people. The rash actions and hasty maneuvers of Quilava perfectly complement the tactical actions and quick thinking of Jeth. These two cover each other in battle normaly, but are known to "divide and conquer" when the occasion arises.
Other Notable Info: Jeth is a great jumper and is known to use strange combinations with his Quilava. Such as jumping off of volcano Pokemon's back while to thing skyrockets for the effects of an Overheat maneuver for added height.
