Pokemon: Drakeroh Region

[Neiko Star]

SIGN-UPS ARE CLOSED!
​

Story​

Welcome to the world of Pokemon! This universe is filled with many different creatures, each as unique as the other. These beings are capable of special abilities, ranging from spinning silk to causing earthquakes. We humans have, in the past, tried to interact with these creatures, in the hope of taming them. We succeeded, partially. Normally, Pokemon live in the wild and are untamed. However, when a human, known as a Pokemon Trainer, captures them, with a device known today as the Pokeball, they can be trained as valued partners.
Many Trainers have journeyed throughout the regions of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and even Orre.

Plot​

Here, we are a region different from the others. This region is composed of two large pieces of land, very close to one another, connected with a thin curl of land. We call these three pieces the West, East and Center Cores. The West Core is generally called Drakoh, while the East Core is named Keroh. When put together, including the Center Core, they form the region known as Drakeroh. Of course, Pokemon inhabit this land, and with wild Pokemon, Trainers followed.
Both the West and the East Core have their own Pokemon league, called Dusk and Dawn Towers, located on the Western and Eastern Islands, an hour's boat riding away from their respective Cores. However, the main and most important league is the one situated on the Center Core's island. It is known as the Starlight Tower, where the true supreme Pokemon masters of the entire Drakeroh region reside.
Also—

The text of the magazine ends here. It seems like the rest has been ripped off. You sigh, closing the book, and gaze outside your window. You are on the ferry, S.S. Victoria, on your way to the Central Island. You look outside again, and you spot another ferry, marked S.S. Julia. You glance to your left, and you see yet another ferry, this one S.S. Diana. You realize that these other ferries are headed towards Eastern and Western Islands. You feel excitement tingling down your spine. You were going to receive your first starter Pokemon at the island.

Suddenly, the ferry lest out a groan and stops. You have arrived.

Additional Info​

You're on one of the three ferries, and you arrive at one of the islands. On each island, there is a Pokemon specialist that will give you your starter. The Central Island specialist is the best, so has the best choices.

[slls81]

Sounds interesting, I'll sign up:

Name - Benjamin Charles (likes to go by Ben)

Gender - Male

Age - 13

Personality - Ben is very outgoing and fiercely loyal. While he sometimes finds it hard to make new friends, he will do anything and everything for the friends he does have. He believes this loyalty will translate to his pokemon. He doesn't really care what others think of him and often ignores people that are rude to begin with. He can be very sarcastic with people, which has been known to lead to some unwanted tension; particularly with people that he has just met. Mostly Ben likes to do his own thing, not worrying too much about how he is seen by other people.


Appearance - Ben is fairly tall for his age, at nearly 5 foot 9 inches tall. He is quite skinny and has a slight tan, which gives him an athletic look. Ben has medium length brown hair, although this is rarely seen as it is always under the black and red baseball cap he always wears. Ben usually wears dark jeans which are slightly baggy and a button -up black coat over the top of a red t-shirt. Ben likes to think this style makes him look a few years older than he actually is, hoping this will make it easier for him to acclimatise in a new region. He also carries a black shoulder bag to hold any items he may need for his journey.


History - Ben was born, raised and has spent almost his entire life in Pallet Town in Kanto. He watched year after year, as trainer after trainer left on their pokémon adventure. Ben always wished he was the one leaving, but when he was 10 he was forbidden to leave by his parents. Distraught, Ben thought his chances at a pokémon adventure were over. Now 13, he has decided he is old enough to make his own choices and is leaving home. He may be older than many trainers leaving on their pokémon journey; but he is as excited as anyone. He decided to take the long journey to Drakeroh and make a fresh start there with his new pokémon.

Preferred Starter - Phanpy please

A tub of hair jell will always be taken with Tony when he goes out yep takes great pride in is hair his normal style would be what he likes to call overgrown jungle in other words he just makes his hair a spikes nest he often gets called mic for this which he hates.
He loves his jackets he collects them in fact and will always be seen wearing one his traveling suit is a black top with matching black trousers with white trainers and of course with one of perhaps 50 jackets lol i said he loves him.

[BlueAngelHikari]

Name: Yuki Sohma​

Gender: Female​

Age: 12​

Personality: One word explains Yuki - Cheerful. Yuki is very cheerful, but also very serious. She will do anything to get good comments, except cheat. She dislikes cheaters alot. However, she has loads of friends she had to leave to become a trainer, therefore, she will seem spaced out at some times. She adores Azurill, therefore she chose Marill as her starter. She leaves it out it's Pokéball, just in case it gets taken. However, Most of the time she will recall Marill due to guilty feelings of leaving it out.​

Appearance: Yuki has dark blue hair which goes to her upper back. She has sea blue eyes and natural long eyelashes. She wears a small Bubble clip on the side of her head. Her skin is fairly pale, and her fingernails are a beautiful length. She wears a Dark Blue singlet top with a picture of Azurill at the bottom, denim short-shorts, one of those waist bags that Haruka/May has, and some thongs. In her bag, she stores - Marill, 5 empty pokeballs, a Pokédex, and a large black cloak to cover herself in cold places. She also has a small Azurill charm on a necklace.​

History: Yuki was born in the birthplace of Rustburo city in Hoenn. Her father worked at Devon corp, and her mother was always at home. Yuki was sent to the Trainer's school, where she quickly made friends with the class. Then, one day, a trainer came in with several Pokémon including - Azurill, Swalot, Pikachu, poochyena, and many more. As soon as Yuki saw Azurill, she really wanted one. So, she quickly told her parents that night. However, they told her Azurill was much too childish for her and they would get her a Nosepass or Gulpin instead. So, on her 12th birthday, Yuki ran away and took a ship to Drakeroh.
Starter: Marill!

[Pikalover10]

Name: Saphire Blazer
Gender: Male
Age: 12

Appearence: Saphire is shorter then most people, he stands about 4 foot 1 and weighs 85 lbs. He has blonde spiky/messy hair and saphire blue eyes, that appear like flames are in them when he is angrier. Hence the name Saphire Blazer. He wears a white undershirt, cacki shorts, brown running shoes, black fingerless gloves, and a necklace. He has one scar that runs down the back of his back and he is very, very pale. Depending on his mood, Saphire's eyes change colors with them. If he was mad they would turn red and if he were lonely they would turn a light blue color. When Saphire sticks his arms out at the saem length, it is obvious that Saphire has broken his right arm before. Right now, Saphire left arm is in a cast due to falling off a bridge and landing on a rock in a dried up lake and shattered his left arm.

Personality: Saphire is very smart and very mischeveus. Most people stay away from him because they know that it is a very deadly combination to be smart and mischeof. Saphire likes to swim, climb trees, and train with his pokemon. He often walks around in the shadows because it is like he is part of the shadow then. Nobody can see him while he is in the shadows. He can scale up the side of walls and trees as silent as a mouse creeping around the ground. He is very agile and swift and will do anything for his friends and family.​

History: Saphire grew up on the Eastern Islands. His mom never did anything with Saphire and it seemed as if she hated him, but she loved him and always would. She died from a heart attack on Saphire's 8 birthday, which made him think that it was his fault his mother passed away. His father was an important business man and brought in enough money for him, Saphire, and his two brothers. Saphire had 2 older brothers, Hank and Joshua. Joshua was also 12 and Hank was 24. Saphire's mom had been 41 when she passed and Saphire's dad is currently 47.​

Joshua and Saphire got along pretty good, considering how they were both twins. Spahire didn't have any friends, but his twin Joshua did. Whenever Saphire was around Joshua's friends, they got him and Saphire mixed up. Saphire's dad also owned a ranch were many pokemon would come around and play with him and Joshua. Joshua's best pokemon friend was a Poliwag, while Saphire's best pokemon friend was a Ponyta.One day when Joshua and Saphire came out to play with their friends, Ponyta wasn't there. Their dad told them some assistant to a professor came and took him. Saphire was truely heartbroken. They continued to play with the pokemon that day, but Saphire didn't do much.​

Preffered Starter: A Ponyta, male, nicknamed: Flare. If we can have egg moves(don't worry about this if we can't) could I possibly request Flame Wheel? Thank you either way and can't wait till the RP starts!!:):)​

If provoked, Kuiin doesn't get angry easily and likes to work things out straight without too much violence. She'll threaten any whom will hurt her most loyal friends or pokemon though.

[Clouddyl]

Name: Jane "Cloud" Stevenson (Prefers Cloud and hates the name Jane)

Gender: Female

Age: 15

Personality: Cloud is an outgoing girl, especially around strangers, because of her lack of staying in one place as a child. She is talkative and happy almost all of the time, except when she is upset, at which point she goes inward and shy, but this isn't often. She is a pretty loving person towards friends and strangers, but she holds grudges forever, partly due to a friend when she was young slighting her in some insignificant way, and it hurt her feelings so much that it affected her ability to trust slightly.

Appearance: Cloud has long dark hair, and quite an average look about her, except for her eyes, which one of which is dark green, and the other dark blue. Normally Cloud wears either ripped old jeans and a long sleeved plain black t-shirt with a dark green t-shirt over the top with a pattern on the front. On formal occasions she wears a dark blue dress with knee high boots and a hat. When its cold, she normally wears the same as for normal, but with a long furry white coat she was given as a birthday present. She always has her trusty backpack and pokegear from Johto, no matter where she is.


History: Born in Johto, Cloud has always moved around, moving house at least once a year, she lived in Goldenrod, then Mahogany, then moving to Kanto living in various small villages before her parents finally decided on the quiet town of Littleroot in Hoenn. Since she was never in one place for very long, she learned to make friends quickly, but never becoming too attached to them, which was never a problem, and now she is going on her first true journey of her own. She had her own Vulpix when she was young, being her first pokemon, but wasn't allowed to take it on the ferry so she left it in the care of her friend in Johto, Bill.


Starter: Horsea please :)

 

[Sublime]

May I reserve Krabby?
I'll get to the SU later..

 

[Neiko Star]

Okay, it seems like nobody bothered looking at the sign-sheet. I stated the exact minimum length each category had to be.

slls81: You're pending. Just add a little more length to your sign-up. Just a little. Like, one or two lines at most. If you do that, I'll accept you.

The master123: Sorry, but I have to say denied. Your sections are not only too short, but not descriptive enough. I can't picture your character in my head. His personality is a bit vague in my opinion. You also use 'Tony' too repetitively. Sorry. Maybe if you fix those things, I might accept you.

BlueAngelHikari: Hm...your personality is a bit wobbly, but overall, your sign-up is decent. You're accepted.

Pikalover10: Well, your appearance is too short for one thing. For another, your history is kinda awkward. It kind of needs more detail. You're pending for now, but bending over to accepted.

dragonqueen0210: Your sign-up is good, so normally I would say accepted. However, all of your sections are too short compared to the minimums I set. So for now, pending. But you really have nothing to worry about, I'll reserve you Trapinch if you lengthen your SU to the right limits.

Clouddy!: Your sign-up is pretty good. It could be better, but definitively good and stable. Accepted.

ArmyGuy0628: Sure, Krabby is reserved for you.


I'm sorry I'm so picky. I feel so guilty. <_<

All questions will be posted on the OOC Thread...if the thread isn't there, it means it hasn't been accepted. If that's the case, I'll try to create another one.

 

[EagleVision1999]

Uhmm, may I sign in?
Name:Hannah Morgan

Gender:female

Age:15

Personality:Hannah is a little bit clumsy with everything, or at least it looks so. But she's also a clever girl with the right ideas at the right time.
Still, she can get scared fast sometimes and also seems too lost in her own thoughts...she's a big dreamer.
She likes adventures but she isn't very sporty...Her biggest talent is running (she's fast) and she likes taking long walks.
However she has an excellent sense of direction when she pays attention to where she's giong (if she doesn't and dreams instead..well then even she gets lost...but that hardly ever happens since she enjoys her environment a lot.)
She's also very close to nature and likes being outside (of course this is why she likes walks so much).
Unlike many others of her age she likes studying and has a large knowledge of Pokemon which she hopes will help her becoming a good trainer. She is a very polite girl and hardly gets angry about something which make her a nice person to deal with although it's probably a little annoying when she dreams away in the middle of a talk.

Appearance:
She doesn't look especially good but she doesn't look that bad as well.
She has light pink hair that's a little curly and reaches her chest.
She weares a ponytail most of the time.
She also weares glasses which suit her well and make her look cute. That's good because without them she'd be lost. Her eyes are light blue and have she has long eyelashes.
She's not really tall (156 cm) and a little skinny. She likes to wear cute clothes just like skirts in pastel colours and flowers on it. This may seem a little childish and is probably due to her dreamy personality. All this makes her seem a little younger than she actually is (once not that long ago, she was thought to be only twelve when she went out to do groceries).

History:
There's nothing really special about her to say. She has parents that lead a little shop in Sunny town, her hometown in which she lived her whole life until now.But for a long time now she whished to become a pokemon master.
However, her parents didn't trust her talent, so she wasn't allowed to go at the age of ten like most of her friends.
Since everyone left back then, she has spent the last years alone (except playing with her little bother who's five years old) in front of the computer or with her nose in a book.
But she was not just wasting time but learned a lot about how to train and fight with pokemon and has a lot of theoretical knowledge which want to be used in real.
One early morning then, she decided that the time has come to start her own journey and she left, when her parents were still sleeping, only leaving a letter behind to inform them about her plans.

Starter: Pichu

 

[drunk ¬_¬]

can i reserve shroomish?

i'll be done with the SU in a sec

 

[Neiko Star]

EagleVision1999: Fairly good sign-up, but I'm still hesitating. I'll put you as accepted, but I want you to be careful not to repeat words too much in the RP. For example, in your appearance, it's 'she, she, she, she, she'.

drunk: 'Kay, Shroomish reserved.

 

[drunk ¬_¬]

This should be good, right?

Name: Guillermo "Memo" Rebello

Gender: Male

Age: 15

Personality: Memo is for the most part: extremely cocky and arrogant. He believes he is the greatest thing invented since PokéBalls (and that does include PokéDexes). Though he is arrogant and extremely inappropriate when talking to: "the ladyzz", he can back it up. He is straight-out: strong, smart, and cunning, which led him to some of the best grades throughout his education in the top-notch 'Trainer Academy' in Viridian City. Unfortunately for most people, he IS a dude you want as an ally.

Appearance: Despite his eccentrically cocky attitude, Memo is in fact very short for his age group (standing at 5'3"), and did have a hard time coming to terms with his "condition". Therefore, he always put in amazing effort at working his body out to become ripped, and slim, unlike others in his class who would get huge.

He has thick, black hair, which he keeps buzzed short, and is mostly hairless on his face and upper body. He has large dark brown eyes, long eyelashes, thick lips.

His usual attire consists of a white o black V-neck, unfaded jeans, a thin white belt, and black Sambas. This, of course, is for hot to chilly temperatures. When it gets hot, he also has a black, thick jacket with a furry hoodie, black gloves, and a black beanie as well.

History: Memo comes from a wealthy family in Viridian City. His father is a main organizer, and provider to the Indigo League, as well as: CO-OWNER of the Indigo Plateau! His mom is a normal housewife enjoying the ride, and his uncle is the Gym Leader of Viridian City.

Memo is extremely proud of his father because he is one of the main drivers of Pokémon taming and training as a competitive sport rather than just a recreational activity, and helped finance Gyms in Pallet, and Lavender Towns. (I suppose this won't be an issue due to the different location).
Memo has always been: pretty much the dude everyone brags about knowing, he has two younger brothers and sister, who are as well-versed in Pokémon as he is, and are more spoiled than a single child of a middle class family. Graduated the 'Advanced Trainers Academy' with honors, and bathed with chants of: "prodigy", Memo now plans to live up to his expectations, and accomplish in the land of Drakeroh, what his father accomplished in Kanto.

Starter:

Shroomish ~ Grass Type Starter, if you would be so kind.

 

[KingKaos]

Name: Keo Lion

Gender: Male

Age: 14

Personality: Keo is a smug young boy, who believes he is above others. He shows off his intellect by using a high variety of words that can confuse everyone he comes in contact with. With no person on his same IQ level, Keo has found himself alone. Keo also finds himself protecting the less intelligent by using his own intellect. Other than that Keo shows loyality, respect, and discpline towards any one he finds is worthy of his respect. He shows no emotion and so no one has a picture of him with a smile on his face.

Appearance: Keo has tan skin, green eyes, short black hair, and thin eyebrows. When Keo is at home he enjoys wearing a white shirt with torn blue jeans. However, when he goes out to another town or an extended journey, he wears: a white and black stripped shirt, a red jacket with "IQ" on the back in gold writing, balck jeans with gold stripes on the sides, and red sneakers that are good for long runs. When it comes to accessories the only thing he wears is a watch that was given to him by his dead older brother.

History: When Keo was ten, he was forced by his parents to take an IQ test. When the result came back, his parents discovered he had an IQ of 280 and that he was more intellegent than they ever thought. While Keo, denied these claims, when he finally saw the papers he believed them. Excited from the news Keo went to his school and showed his friends his result. When the teacher learned of this she had Keo removed form the school. After being removed from the school, he still tried to hang out with his friends. When he finally caught up with them, they ignored him. Keo tried to get their attention. When they all finally came to a bridge, his friends denied every being his friends. Keo's intellegence had turned them away. Feeling betrayed, Keo put himself away from the world and stayed within his home. When a year finally passed, his parents sent him out into the world on a journey. The journey was to help him come cope and master the abilities his IQ gave him. This period during the journey, was what morphed Keo into a true loner and protector. Keo found that his intellegence gave him the ability to use strategies that would make him a good trainer. However, because he found Pokemon annoying, Keo refused the idea of becoming a trainer. When he finally returned home, his parents gave him things for yet another journey. With that Keo has been sent to Center Core Island.
