PLEASE REMEMBER!: This is a heavy WIP. I will be working on it much further if it sparks enough interest. If you have any suggestions or questions, please PM me!
The Legend of Falling Stars
The story begins...
We begin our story on route 118 in the Hoenn region, outside of Mauville City. Deep inside the woods, where the humans do not tread, there is a small village. A small population of about fifty pokémon live here. There's a small farm, everyone has a comfy home, and life is fine. Even the Eon duo, Latios and Latias, come to make sure no humans have tampered with the village. Life was fine.
Or maybe it wasn't.
At first it was unnoticeable. Every night before sleeping, you would look up at the stars. It was everyone's way to relax; humans and pokémon enjoyed it alike. However, the night kept getting darker and darker. The moon that was once full became new. Only this time, it never came back. The brightest stars in the sky twinkled out one by one. Even the daytime sunlight wasn't as bright. Clouds swirled in circles with no wind. You asked your neighbors to spy on the humans to see if they could find more information in the city. Soon after, a linoone came back with the news that Mossdeep Space Center "Has it under control." You hardly believe that.
You then request that the village call on Latios or Latias. Surely powerful pokémon such as them would know and have everything under control? Everyone agreed.
They never came, and weren't spotted once. They were... gone?
Increasing panic and worry spread around. The village master, Vaporeon, tried to reduce the panic. "The Eon Duo may just be busy helping out other pokémon, that's all!" She reminded, "There is no report of anything threatening locally."
The word locally has everyone concerned. Could it be happening in other regions? Is Hoenn the only one having this issue? You want to go outside the village and investigate further, but Vaporeon has the village under lockdown. She keeps reminding "The legendaries must be taking care of this."
Must be? There's no confirmation on that! They could be in trouble! Your adventurous heart glows brighter and brighter. Your love of new sights and danger burns like fire! You can't just sit around and let this happen! You've got to do something!
But... what are the chances someone feels the same? You can't go out there alone? What do you do? People will think you're crazy. It's time to gather your courage and investigate in the hopes someone feels the same!
The thoughts of the village chattered about. Is it time to discover a new age of heros, or will the future unfold without one? The tale is yet to be told!

Characters
What kind of characters will I need? We'll need the majors roles and the smaller roles to guide us along this journey!
General rules:
No "fakemon." Pick an actual pokemon confirmed in the games.
They DO NOT Have to be native to Hoenn. Just because the setting is in Hoenn, doesn't mean you can't be an Alolan Pokemon!
Okay now that I've stated that, here we go.
Major Roles:
The adventure team!:
This will be a team of 3-5 kids. They are the protagonists and will be in most of the story. ONLY THINK ABOUT JOINING THIS ROLE IF YOU ARE SURE YOU CAN AND WILL STAY IN THE RP!
They must be:
A basic pokemon. No evolutions, legendaries/mythicals, Ultra Beasts, or otherwise OP pokemon.
Young. No 80 year old treekcos. We need a few youngster pokemon ready for adventure!
MINOR ROLES
You're probably thinking "Minor roles? What are those?" Let me explain.
This will allow people who do not want to create a character for the RP to join. It's for people who want to jump into the action! The roles have a very basic description, so there is a lot of wiggle room! Be who you think would fit the role. If sign ups come along, I will ask you to write IC to see how well you do with your selected role.
Vaporeon:
The village leader. Strong and kind, this pokemon is not afraid to stand up for what's right. She has an iron will and will protect the villagers at ALL costs.
Sawsbuck:
The teacher at the village's school. he's strict, but understanding. He runs the entire school by himself! Pretty impressive if I say so!
Archen:
The guard of route 118 and the surrounding areas. He's not the brightest, but he does his job well. While he cannot fly, his wings can glide him to any place in an instant!
Gyarados:
In times of emergency, Gyarados is able to jump into the sky to get a view of the area. While he tries to be nice to the villagers, he comes off as hostlie. He works with Archen to protect the entire route and more.
General rules:
No "fakemon." Pick an actual pokemon confirmed in the games.

How the RP will function
MOVESETS
Spoiler:
Instead of learning new moves and having to keep track of them, I will allow everyone to have 6 moves. Be careful though! They will never change. You can only have moves your species of pokemon can learn! You may also have one egg move. Of course, you will NOT start out with all your moves. The GM will let you know when you learn your selected move.
DAMAGE
Spoiler:
Damage will be calculated by a number between 0-10 on www.random.org . Think of lt as DND, but a 10 sided die instead of 20. If it rolls a 0, your move will miss. This is exempt for moves that cannot miss or have 100% accuracy. I will screenshot every roll I make. If you are very skeptical, I will use gifs and show me clicking the button!
MINOR ROLES
Spoiler:
You will be notified when your role(s) comes into play. You will be asked on the signup thread how well you can act like the character(s) you picked.
THE GAMEMASTER
Spoiler:
The gamemaster will be a narrator of sorts, following the characters around and describing surroundings. The GM will also be characters that are too small to have a role, or show up so little nobody would want to be them!
