Pokemon are creatures like us. While they lack what we consider our supirior "intelligence" and often live off of their instinct, the have similar minds, societies within their species, and emotions. However, since the invention of the Pokeball, humans have taken advantage of them. Countless families have been torn apart. Once-great leaders have been reduced to no more than pets. Organized colonies have been reverted to past origins of scavenging and wandering in lowly existences. And yet, Pokemon survived. They have existed before us, and will likely exist after. They are a very resillient variety of creatures. Yet, that does not mean they cannot try to turn the tables on us.
It all began with a small idea. Most Pokemon now say it was a young Abra who devised the clever thought. That, though, could perhaps be a mere rumor. But the origin of the idea is of little importance. True, it would be stupid to think no Pokemon had ever gotten the idea of overthrowing humans. This time though, it actually made sense. This time, it could happen.
The group that it first spread through was a single-species Alakazam Colony. Alakazam, often being considered the "smartest Pokemon alive", pride themselves in their ability to devise plans, workings, and means of communication. This was no exception. Soon other groups of wild Pokemon were in on it. The idea was favored. No one disagreed. And before long, a whole organization existed. It spread, too. Flying and migrating Pokemon spread the word. Soon it corssed oceans. Even then though, the region where the rebel Pokemon were strongest remained Jhoto, the region where it began, now considered the "Region of Chaos".
The few humans who dare to remain in Jhoto are in grave danger. Here, wild Pokemon are trying to take over. They are just as merciless and misconsiderate as we have been to them, and perhaps more so. Humans who resist them are killed or forced into enslavement. The same goes for Pokemon who side with them, and thuse some trained Pokemon have decided to abandon their trainers to join the ultimate rebellion. At this point, the line between human and Pokemon has been drawn.
You are living in the "Region of Chaos". There is one simple law here, and it applies whether you want it to or not: If you side with the humans, you are an enemy to the Pokemon. If you side with the Pokemon, the humans are your sworn foes. Whether you choose to act is not a question. Act on either side, and you become either an enemy or a prey being. Refuse to act, and you will end up dead no matter what. Now is the time for rebellion and justice; freedom and victory; war and death. Which side will you take?
___
Here are the kinds of characters and sides you can have for them. Your character's views can change throughout the RP, this is just for their opinion when it starts. NOTE-Neutrals are those who cannot decide whether to be for or against the rebellion. If you are a neutral wild Pokemon, you are fair game for being caught by players who are trainers and being attacked by anyone.
Human Trainer (against the rebellion only)
Wild Pokemon (siding with the rebellion)
Wild Pokemon (neutral with the rebellion)
Trained Pokemon (against the rebellion)
Trained Pokemon (neutral with the rebellion)
Trained Pokemon (siding with the rebellion)
RULES
These rules are not to be broken. If you do break any one of them, you will be given a warning for this RPG. After three warnings, your character(s) will be removed and you will not be permitted to re-join.
SIGN-UPS
Okay. I have one rule for the descriptive sections (description, history, and personality). It must be AT LEAST a paragraph. No limit or minumum, but a paragraph. That is a group of sentences that completes a thought. No "nice and likes to help others." for your full personality; I will not accept it if it's a sentence or sorry description that could have easily been written by a kindergartener. Not to upset anyone, but I REALLY don't like it when someone posts a sign-up like that. Most people don't, but to those that do, either put some actual effort in or don't sign up at all. Here's the sheet:
Name: What is your character's name?
Side: State your side and species (human if you are a trainer, whatever Pokemon you are if you're a Pokemon). The sides you can take are listed above the rules.
Gender: Male or female...
Age: Any...
Description: What your character looks like. If it's a Pokemon and has no special qualities/looks/abilities (which, you can be litterally as creative as you want), you can just say it looks like a normal -insert Pokemon here-. Otherwise, I need a descriptive paragraph.
Personality: Descriptive paragraph. That's all I request.
History: Whatever you'd like. Be creative and do the paragraph thing.
Pokemon: (only if you are a trainer)
<list each of the Pokemon the trainer has and any nicknames or special qualities they might have>
Other: Anything else?

Here's mine. Use it as an example of around what I'll be needing. Of course, you can do more, but this kind of outlines a decent sign-up.
Name: Kendrack
Side: WIld Pokemon; Mightyena (siding with the rebellion)
Gender: Male
Age: Six Years
Description: Kendrack is rather large for even a Mightyena. His thick dark fur keeps a gnarled, straggly look, and that combined with his menacing yellow fangs and needle-sharp black claws gives him a very demonic appearance. Not to mention the pair of horns on the back of his head, which stick straight back, and his deep red eyes that seem to stare straight into your soul. All this usually makes others quiver in fright upon seeing him, whether they have a good reason to or not.
Personality: Dark and cold, Kendrack proves himself to be very untrusting of anyone. He is a loner, and anyone who tries to be friendly with him gets a ferocious fanged growl in reply. While he can show respect for others who he feels are worthy, his trust is something to be earned, rather than simply obtained. Few have received this trust. Few really would want to. And while he really is just a misunderstood and heartbroken soul beneath his exterior, Kendrack does have the murderous mind of a carnivore, and will kill mercilessly if he feels the need.
History: Long ago, when Kendrack was merely a pup, he was taken away from his mother by humans. Their reasons, he does not know to this day, but ever since his life has been miserable. The humans caged him in a laband tested on him in what was actually an attempt to create a Pokemon mutant. Their attmps merely produced a pair of horns, however, and this was not satisfying. After a painful year of this torture, he was tossed out and considered "useless". Ever since, he has held a deep loathing for humans in his heart, and refuses to tolerate them. In fact, he admits to having killed more than one in his lifetime since his freedom. Kendrack once made a friend, another Pokemon, and that Pokemon was later captured by a human. This was one of the humans he killed, yet the orb that contained his friend was nowhere to be seen. This only strengthened his fiery hatred for the human race. They have only caused him pain, and what should he do but return the treatment now?
Other: Not much, I guess...

RULES
These rules are not to be broken. If you do break any one of them, you will be given a warning for this RPG. After three warnings, your character(s) will be removed and you will not be permitted to re-join.
- Only two characters at max. No more than two. You can have a trainer and a Pokemon this trainer owns if you'd like.
- Trainers can catch any Wild Pokemon, but unless that Pokemon is classed as "neutral", then the trainer must PM the person playing the Pokemon to ask about it before doing so.
- If someone wants to play a Pokemon that belongs to another RPer's trainer, or a someone wants to play a trainer owning a trained Pokemon that belongs to another player, ask that player in PM and notify me.
- If you're a trained Pokemon, yet are not also playing that Pokemon's trainer or do not have someone else playing your trainer, then that Pokemon's trainer becomes a minor character controlled for you. The same goes for trainers who have Pokemon they aren't signing up with.
- No more than six Pokemon, trainers.
- NO LEGENDS! No one is playing a legend, and no trainer is owning a legend! This will not earn you a warning if you sign up with one, I'll just tell you to change it.
- All of the general rules of the RPG Forum and Pokecommunity Forums apply of course, as always. Just a reminder, as you WILL recieve a warning for this RP for breaking them.
- Be creative! I'm giving you no limit as to what you do with your character other than those stated in the rules and guidelines, so feel free to make the most interesting, unique, or even perfectly average character you want.
