Spoiler:

OOC: The prouloge doesn't apply to the story anymore, and, this one won't just be dialouge"

Chapter 1: Hiro Tomi

"It's the Red-Winged Theif!!!" Said a cop who had blood rushing down his head. It was a normal night in pallet town until, well, that is, until Zero showed up, He held up a museum, attacking everyone and anyone as mercilessly as possible. He had no sympathy for anyone except children.

"What's wrong officers can't one- crap, it's that time already, gotta go!" Zero, left as fast as he could to keep Hiro, his counterpart, from going to jail. No one knew that Zero was Hiro, or visa versa, and Zero intended to keep it that way.

The next day, Hiro woke up to the sound of Sora, his pidgey, who was in charge of the morning wake up call. He went downstairs to start his day. As usual, he ate breakfast and watched the news. On the news was the robbery from the night before.

"The Red Winged Theif 'Villen' has escaped again, leaving 24 wounded and no casualties. Hiro scoffed at this, he thought the name Villen was stupid and not creative at all. He also hated that this guy went in, attacked people, and left without stealing anything, it seemed more like assult.

"I'm going out." Said Hiro as he left his house. He went into the Viridian Forest, his favorite place to go to draw and train Sora. He was usually alone when in the forest, but today was different. A girl about Hiro's age came up to him and started to talk.

"Are you... Hiro Tomi?" She asked. Hiro's eyes narrowed, he had never seen this girl in his life, who was she? "I can tell by the expression on your face that you are, yays!" She seemed like a naturally cheery person. "I was sent by her." What did she mean by her? For some reason, Hiro couldn't talk, who was this girl?

Chapter 1:END
OOC: Yes, chapter 1 was meant to be short, the others will be longer.​

Name: John Thornwood
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Starter Pokemon: Charmander
Favourite Legendary: Dialga

Appearance: John is a fairly tall man, around 5'9", of a slender build and with slightly pallid skin. He has deep, slanted blue eyes, narrowed down to a curved point at the tips. He has lustrous dark brown hair which he wears around shoulder-length, gently flowing down and back in numerous small spikes as if in a gentle breeze. While he normally puts it in a ponytail for convenience, he will often let it loose when at rest. He wears a loose black jacket and matching trousers, small feathers detailed in stitching around the seams and the ends of which are sown back to form small cuffs. His hands reside in a pair of black fingerless gloves, a knotwork design stitched around the seams. From these flow long pianist fingers, slightly brittle-looking and extremely dextrous. He wears tough leather thigh-boots, featureless save for numerous repairs after years of wear and tear.

History: John was born in Eterna City, a settlement located near the north-eastern edge of Mount Coronet most famous for its Pokemon Gym and extensive museum. As a young child, John was extremely inquisitive, constantly working to learn and find out more. The fact that he had learnt to read by the age of two and a half simply by listening to his parents reading to him shows something of the aptitude for which he had for this. He was always intrigued by the statues of Dialga and Palkia in the town centre, and has looked deep into the old legends about the twin god-Pokemon, mainly through the museum and library. While he discounts the stories of two beings that could mould space and time, he always enjoyed reading about them. It was partially this that got him interested in writing stories of his own, a means by which he could channel his creativity, and several of these were related to the Lords of Space and Time. As he grew older, however, his attention began to turn away from story writing and more into Pokemon. He enjoyed delving into strategies and tactics, and soon became obsessed with the idea of becoming a trainer. He sent letter after letter to Professor Rowan, and was delighted when his letters, and dreams, were answered.

Side: Neutral (might shift in RP if plot suggests)
Other Info: John is extremely analytical, and his intellect is one of his defining features. He can understand complex problems inhumanly quickly and is very strategic. He enjoys legends and myths, but doesn't normally believe in them.

RP Sample:

Spoiler:

Mora leaned against a wooden strut holding up one of the more ramshackle of the stalls, watching with an expression of disgust as the man roared across the crowd. For all those guards, for all of his protection, all it would need to finish him is a single crossbow bolt. He continued on that line of thought for a moment. I've got to get me a small hand bow. If he wasn't mistaken - and he doubted that he was - small fights were breaking out amongst some of the more eager to volunteer. At this rate, he'll have them gutting anyone with unusual eyes or tinted hair, just in case they're demons. And now its not only the racists after us, but the money-hungry as well.

He gently shook his head, then turned around and looked at the shopkeeper, who was serving one of his customers a large slab of uncertain meat. A gentle wave of his hand made a bottle of cider behind him crash noisily to the floor and, while he turned round, a similar bottle flew a few inches above the ground towards him, flashing underneath the table along. As an afterthought, he also went for a small chicken leg- not much, but enough for now. He'd buy more later. He surreptitiously dropped his pouch, then leant over to pick it up while collecting his ill-gotten gains.

He took the precaution of moving to another shop a short way down the alley and gently sipped the cider, watching the man still. Not bad stuff. He brought the bottle to his nose and inhaled deeply of the deep, fiery aroma. His brow furrowed. Yes, the cider was definitely good. But there was something much more attention-drawing in the air. Yukou? There was no doubt about it and, with the strong overlapping of various scents, several of them in close proximity. Curious, he began to sift through the crowd, surreptitiously tracing the scent. He headed for the strongest concentration, a mixture of odours that could never be caused except by two Yukou together.

 

[Mewliveson]

I would love to join this rp! Please reserve my spot as well as my legendary(MEW of course) Promise to post profile ASAP.

 

[Techeon]

I like the concept, I think I'd be more than happy to join. I'd like to call Cyndaquil if for any reason DarkOz should drop out, if no one minds.
Anyway... Sorry if it's a bit longer than you'd like.

Name:
Alexis Bryant
Age:
Sixteen
Gender:
Male
Starter Pokemon:
Charmander (Male, either quirky or rash)
Favorite Legendary:
Darkrai

Personality:
(I know there wasn't a place for this but it just occured to me that I should include it anyway)

Alexis is the type of person who tends to force people to take sides. Everyone generally either considers him really cool or just too lame for words. That being said, both extremes tend to keep others at a distance from him. Over the years Alex has gotten used to this and doesn't mind it too much, he likes being alone and considers other people interesting and distracting but doesn't tend to make emotional investments in them.

He sometimes acts silly or frivolous withut thinking, and has fun doing it, but when he catches himself at it he gets embaressed and that makes him broody and sulky and he's likely to snap at the next person who says something that annoys him. He gets annoyed easily and without cause sometimes and though he realizes this he only apologizes for being rude if he feels like it.

He considers himself an instant master of anything he has a basic understanding of, and he's pretty much a perfectionist as well. As soon as he screws up at something he's 'mastered' he either gets broody or adamantly denies making a mistake. This often leads to him being either ridiculed or simply disliked by those who actually do know what they're talking about, even more so because he has amazing intuition sometimes and often guesses correctly at what he doesn't know.

Appearance:
For a sixteen year old Alex is fairly mature. To look at his tall lithe build you would think he were at least a year or so older. His features aren't extraordinary, but they are handsome in a very plain and unassuming way. His skin is pale, betraying years spent alone in his room, and is a very stark contrast to his black shoulder length hair. He's just beginning to develop real muscle mass and as such looks a bit weaker than he actually is. This isn't helped at all by the round, thinly framed silver spectacles he has to wear constantly to aid his deep gun-metal blue eyes.

Alexis generally wears black jeans and a very dark blue denim jacket given to him by his father. This is usually coupled with a dark button down shirt, usually in a shade of either red or gray. His left ear is pierced and in it he wars a hanging pokeball earring. Though he isn't a trainer yet, the pokeball is actually functional; just empty. On his feet he wears black leather boots which he very rarely takes off.

Despite the fact that this may all sound cool he generally gives off the first impression of being a bit of an outcast rather than the lone wolf he fancies himself to be.

History:
Alexis was born and raised in Veilstone. He never really liked the big town, with all of its lights and masses of people. It was always too crowded, too impersonal for his liking. He never made any friends in his childhood, not because he didn't want them, but because it was tough to pick one person out of all of them to strike up a friendship with. It didn't depress him, he didn't think about it much at all really. He just... Never got around to it.

His mother and father both worked long hours and even if he refused to admit it, Alexis had always wanted a normal family as a kid. At fourteen his father left home. Alex and his mother were more than fine on their own and on the surface level Alex wasn't really upset. He was angry and a bit disappointed, but not really surprised or distressed.

A few months after that Alexis was caught breaking into a locked storage room in the department store, trying to get his hands on a pokemon. He managed it, he even got into a few battles before the little Eevee he'd found was taken away from him. Pokemon theft is a very serious crime, but considering his age, the fact that the Eevee was actually happier than when she'd been taken, and his oath to never go near the store again, let alone steal anything, he was let off the hook.

Ever since that day, Alex has been adamant in his quest to become a trainer. He didn't really have enough money to buy a pokemon from a breeding farm, and with his record he knew there was only one way he'd be allowed... And so, the pestering of pokemon professors across the world started... He knew one day one of them would answer one of his letters; it was only a matter of time.

Side:
Neutral (may shift to bad as he understands events more fully... Rather, Neutral Evil, if you catch my drift...)

Other Info:
Uh... Quirks, let's see...

Deep sleeper, hates bugs, gets annoyed very easily by people he considers silly or stupid, allergic to any berry with an abundance of blue pigment (odd, but not unheard of), bright colors give him headaches, really loves watching fire, will not lie about anything 'important'.

RP Sample:
He was ten today and no one cared. As he lay flat on his back in the lush green field outside of Veilstone watching the stars overhead Alexis almost thought he could hear his mother calling him, probably because he forgot to do some stupid chore. He didn't care, he just rolled over onto his belly and kicked his feet, a bored, almost angsty expression on his young face as he picked up a few small pebbles and started tossing them into the tall grass nearby.

His expression instantly turned to shock then delight as he hear a muffled 'rahk!' from the grass. Maybe this birthday would be a good one after all! He jumped to his feet, pushing his glasses higher on the bridge of his nose as a little green bug pokemon come crawling slowly out of the grass and glowered at him darkly. He knelt down and put his hand out to it.

"I'm sorry. Come on out little guy, I won't hurt you!" He said, sounding anything but sorry and more than a little mischievous. The spider pokemon just continued to glare before lunging forward and the boy let out a half yelp, falling back before running home to his mother. He heard, as he did, a satisfied sounding 'spina, spin' and he could almost hear the pokemon laughing at him as he ran. He really hated bugs...

Name: Don "Donnie" Merineaux

Age: 16

Personality: Donnie is a reckless boy that can find himself in the toughest of situations. H e carefully thinks through situations before making any actions, and when he starts he doesn't stop, he'll keep going at it until the job is finished. Donnie often finds himself speaking without thinking. This aspect of his personality can make him seem stupid, but he's actually very knowledgeable.

Donnie can be very unsympathetic, and may ridicule others for talking about their misfortune, even if it's completely appropriate. He is a secretive person and likes to keep things to himself. Donnie isn't very social and would rather hang out with his brother, but completely prefers to be by himself.

History: Donnie was sent on an assignment from his family to reaserch the country of Sinnoh, to see if it was well suited for their needs. He didn't really want to do it, but did anyways because he would get some alone time, and everyone else had assignments too. He asked if his brother could come with him, but the answer was no, but, if he could finish his research early he could bring his brother with him. Naturally he declined, but with his brother begging pitifully he accepted and quickly set off. As he traveled through the region he became fascinated by the creatures of the area. Soon, weeks in each town turned into months.

Soon, Donnie arrived in Celestic Town, his last stop. He wasn't too impressed, or at least not until he saw the strange markings in a cave. Anyone he asked just shook their head as if they didn't know what it was, but something told him they did. His need to know about it grew. He new exactly what would help him learn what he needed to know. He began writing letters to Professor Rowan.

Appearance: Donnie wears a Yellow hoodie that shrowds his face and dark blue jeans. He also wears white sneakers. Donnie is 4' 6", yes, it is short for a boy his age, but it runs through the family. Donnie has dark brown skin the lightly fades as you go up his body.

Side: Neutral

Starter: Mudkip

Favorite legendary: Kyogre

RP Sample: Part 1

The one who knocked at my door was a lady named Selena. Apparently she was apart of some sort of clan called Team Volcanis. She led me, and many other people, to a small warehouse. Upon entering I noticed that it was fairly old. The walls were stained with what looked like rust and some of the paint was pealing off the walls. They must have just picked this place out, I thought, well, at least it doesn't reek. One of what looked like the members escorted me over to a seat and kindly asked me to sit. This can't be a trick, I said to myself as I began to sit down, if they were planning a trap they wouldn't have been that nice, and if they were faking I would've seen a look of scorn. I turned my attention to the door in the back, and they probably would've blocked the doors too. Bit what if… My thoughts were cut off when Selena began to speak.

"Good afternoon, all of you," she starts, her voice concerned yet unshaken. "Do any of you know why I've recruited you and put you here? It's because of the destruction that Team Rocket and Team Galactic have caused. For the past few years, Team Rocket and Team Galactic have taken over many towns and cities and I'm afraid that your town might be next. If they get farther, they may even take over the world and put us under their control." There teamed up with Team Rocket!? How come I was unaware of this? And their plan is to take over the world? How do they plan to accomplish such a feet? This new information began to make me uneasy. "That's where you come in. As recruits to Team Volcanis, you receive your first partner." Selena turned her attention to the center of the room where two of their members pushed a cart of Pokeballs, there were seven in all. "You will be able to come up and pick your partner." Selena walked next to the container and pressed a small, round button on the end of the container. The glass on top opened slowly and she pointed at each Pokeball, saying the Pokemon it contained. "Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Totodile, Torchic, Turtwig, and Gligar."
I remembered that he owned at least one of each of those same types of pokemon at his home, all of the capabilities and attacks were already etched in his mind. Anyone of them would be a good choice. "When I point to you, I want you to come up and take the Pokemon you want." After a few of the other people in the warehouse grabbed their pokemon Selena pointed towards me. I got up slowly and walked over to the container. Turtwig, Charmander, and Bulbasaur were gone; I only had a few choices left. I took several moments to evaluate all of my choices through my mind. I realized that I was probably making a fool of myself by standing up here so long. I quickly took Totodile, and, nearly tripping on the way, walked back to my seat.

After the rest of the group obtained their pokemon Selena went back to talking. "You won't go home yet; you'll go throw a training mission with your Pokemon." Several members come around with backpacks; I was handed one. "Inside this backpack is a camp set, five potions, several berries, a map of your surroundings, and ten Pokeballs to be used to catch your team while on your training mission. Of course, the Pokemon in this mission can also be used for a practice battle. Beware: Wild Pokemon on this practice mission will be strong." I sat their for a while wonder what I would do with this backpack. I already owned one, and I had brought it with me, maybe they'll let me switch it. Just when I was about to ask Selena turned towards me and called, "Come with me." She said almost sternly. Why does she need me, above everyone else to go? I wondered as I got up from my seat, picked up the second bag, and followed her. We went into a back door leading outside. I noticed it was getting dark. I turned towards Selena waiting for hat it was she wanted. "This is where you will start." She points to a mountain visible over a large forest of trees. "That is where you will end – at the top of that mountain. At the top of the mountain, there will be a surprise for you and I advise being ready for it. Good luck."

She then threw a Pokeball into the air and in a blinding flash of light a Fearow appears. She mounted the Fearow and before she left she said, "And remember, I will be watching." I watched as the Fearow effortlessly lifted her into the air and gracefully soared through the sky.

Now alone I realized that I still had a problem with my two backpacks. I emptied out the bag they gave me and placed the items inside of my bag, and then I neatly rolled up the second bag and placed it in mine. I then zipped up the backpack and lugged it over my shoulders. Reaching into my pocket I took out the PokeBall and released Totodile. Right after it appeared it chanted its name three times and looked at me with puzzlement. Chuckling to myself I crouched down towards the pokemon.
"Hey, I'm just as surprised as you are, this is all completely unplanned."
