    Hey everyone! Lash here- with a remake of my first Pokémon roleplay. Better grammar this time, and a better storyline, still along the lines of the original! Here we go..

    Plot-

    [Sinnoh Region]

    In the ancient times of the Pokémon world, there were two types of beings; Of light, and dark. Two entities of power that clash at eachother with full force. Light being the side of the good, the pure, and the right. Dark being the side of the evil, the infected, and corruption. In this world of powers, there are two different species of Pokemon co-existing with eachother in peace and harmony.. Pokémon and humans.

    There were many kinds of Pokémon- Those of a higher order, due to rarity. Those who are common, seen with humans often. Each with a different personality like humans, the co-existence has caused some Pokemon to battle alongside humans in competitions of skill and power, while others are kept as peaceful pets. However, there are certain Pokémon species who go astray with power and madness..

    An outrage started with a Pokémon with the ability to steal the soul of other Pokémon or humans known as Spiritomb. It did not want Pokémon to demean themselves by obeying humans, so it stole the souls of both the humans and the Pokémon who were considerably making fools of themselves.

    Another Pokémon contributed to this outrage: Giratina. It lived in a different dimension, but it escaped the rift, to enter the human world. With the ability to trap anything with a certain amount of space in darkness, it became an evil Pokemon attacking the humans and Pokémon too; However not only attacking the so called demeaning Pokémon/Humans, it attacked anything.

    Finally, Darkrai, a creature of pure darkness emerged. Its ability to trap anything within a nightmare from which the target cannot wake up from, this one was the most dangerous of the three.

    All three Pokémon of darkness relentlessly went on with their attack. Day by day, second by second, the battles were being lost along with lives. There was no order, until a Pokémon deemed as a god finally decided to battle for peace and hope against the darkness. This Pokémon name is only known as Arceus. Fighting Darkrai, Spiritomb, and Giratina was no easy task for Arceus. The three opposing dark had the advantage in numbers, and power. Arceus made four new Pokémon to aid itself in the battle; Uxie, Azlef, Mesprit, and Cresselia. Four Pokémon for the power of light, the three Uxie, Azlef, and Mesprit fought against Spiritomb. Cresselia clashed with Giratina, and Arceus fought tooth and tail with Darkrai.

    A long, and hard fought battle took place between the light and the dark. Light prevailed over the dark at the end of the battle, in an explosion of light power. The Pokémon of light used their combined powers to send the darkness all into one void; sealed within it for eternity. The lives lost of the Pokémon and humans were restored, with peace and balance itself. This battle was recorded within the history books. The peace and the balance stayed so, until a secret cavern in the Sinnoh Region's largest landmark was discovered. Inside of this mountain, a blue haired man named Cyrus found a secret cavern, with a darkness emitting book inside of it. The book has to do with the powers of darkness of the three Pokemon from all too long ago..

    --The waves of darkness will soon take over.

    Time for my sign up sheet.

    Name: Patrick Hoston

    Nickname: Pat

    Age: 17

    Gender: Male

    Personality: Pat is extremely calm, usually one to "go with the flow". Though this may be his personality most of the time, he can change in an instant, mainly in battle. He is very serious in a Pokemon battle, fighting it out to the end no matter what obstacle may come his way. In win or loss, he is happy no matter what, knowing that he fought hard to the end. Pat also has an angry side to him however. He gets mad for the right reasons though, when battling any evil organization using Pokemon for their own needs.

    Appearance: Pat wears pitch black shoes, styled to be Vans, with dark gray shoe laces. The tongue on the shoe is raised a bit, with the shoe laces appearing a little loose. His shoes stick on his feet however, still appearing to be loose. The top part of the shoe tongue is covered by the cuffs of his blue pants. At the right knee of his pants, there is a small rip. At the top of his pants is a black belt, with pods connected to it to hold any Pokemon he caught in Pokeballs. For the moment, he has four: Three red and white Pokeballs, and one ball colored in brown and green camouflage. For a shirt, he wears a long, black, short sleeved shirt. He wears gloves, black and fingerless. Pats hair is freestyle, all over his head, untamed. The color is a lighter brown, with small shades of sandy blonde. Above his hair, lays a black hat, with a white upper circle symbolizing the upper half of a Pokeball. Finally, his eye color is a light red, no pupil.

    As for other body properties, he stands at the height of 6"2'. Being at this height, he isn't very heavy, weighing in at about 112ibs.

    History:
    [*]Kanto:
    Starting out his Pokemon journey at age 11, he has always had a knack for Pokemon battling. Choosing his starter from the regions Professor, Oak. His first Pokemon being Charmander, he set out from his home town, Pallet, to challenge the Pokemon League. Catching many Pokemon along the way, he collected all of the regions badges, and battled a notorious organization called Team Rocket. This is what developed his hate for evil. The team did help spark more battle experience for him. He took place in the Indigo League competition, earning all 8 of Kanto's badges. Pat did pretty well in the tournament, defeated when he made it to the last four Pokemon Trainers in the League. He settled at his home soon after, for about a year, until he heard of the region to the West; Johto. He traveled there.

    [*]Johto:
    After his year of rest in Kanto, he heard about Johto, and traveled to the region. He signed up for the Johto Pokemon League, ready for a whole new ride of Pokemon training. However, it was not up to his full expectations, as Team Rocket thrived in Johto as well. He continued battling this evil team through Johto, while catching new Pokemon, and becoming more of an experienced Pokemon trainer. After about 9 or so months in the Johto Region, the Johto League Championships took place. Like thew previous Kanto League, he had to have all 8 of the Region badges to enter- Which he did. Battling valiantly though the entire week of the tournament, he made it to the final round. In a long and heated battle, he lost, coming out in second place. He went home to Kanto immediately after the championships. Along the way though, he heard about the Hoenn Region.

    [*]Hoenn:
    After the Johto League championships, he heard about Hoenn, and traveled to the region by boat- Not taking any months rest in Kanto. This time, he knew about the Regions League, but he decided not to enter it- But to just train himself and his Pokemon in Hoenn, battling non-stop yet still having a care for his Pokemon. Happy in the region at age 14, he learned of a different evil teams existence in Hoenn- Teams Aqua and Magma. He spent quite a bit of time in Hoenn, battling either evil team at every turn. Spending a large amount of time in the region, he challenged both the leaders of the evil team head on when they were battling eachother with two powerful legendary Pokemon- Kyogre and Groudon. Never giving up, he avoided the Legendary Pokemon, not wanting to hurt them, due to them being under control. It was still too much however; Until a green, immense dragon emerged from the sky. Rayquaza was its name. In one explosion of power, the fighting of the legendary Pokemon stopped. Everything was back to normal in the region. This was so, though Pat was not happy. He felt powerless. He heard about Sinnoh while training with his Pokemon one day, so..

    [*]Sinnoh:
    Pat went to this region, departing from his two year training tip in Hoenn. He heard about how powerful Sinnoh is, trainers and Pokemon, so he is interested. He hasn't spent too much time there, since he arrived only after the Sinnoh Championships took place. He celebrated his 17th birthday there, which only recently happened. Pat is currently training for the upcoming Sinnoh League, ready to gain badges and take on anything that make come his way.

    Pokemon Team: Buizel, Aipom, Scizor, Charizard

    Charizard:
    Gender: Male
    Personality: Very proud of its fire power. Proud is how he is most of the time, sometimes letting it get the better of him in battle when winning. Always battling to the end though, he doesn't know the meaning of the words, "Giving Up". Serious when he has to be in battles, it gets angry when it is losing, going all out with fire power. When not in battle, gentle, but active.
    History:
    Charmander: Received from Professor Oak as a starter Pokemon to Pat. A feisty battler, it evolved rather quickly.
    Charmeleon: This is around the time when he started to let pride in power develop. In a battle versus a strong Vileplume in a Gym, it was stunned a paralyzed. Not wanting to let Pat down, he used all of his power to evolve for the win.
    Charizard: Newly evolved, it won a quick victory against the opposing Vileplume, he became the powerhouse of Pats team. In aerial or ground battles, it had the advantage. Often seen with Pat, the trainer never deposits it.

    Scizor:
    Gender: Male
    Personality: Very calm, quiet, and quick. In a battle, he goes all out with his moves, moving slyly and quickly, striking with force. Though very powerful, he never lets anything get the better of him. He does get angry at evil like Pat though, only when needed.
    History:
    Scyther: Caught as a Scyther in the Kanto Fuschia Safari Zone, it was out of control. Overconfident, and defeating all Pokemon around it without guilt. Pat battled against it on foot, and caught it with a Safari Ball. This was the only Pokemon Pat caught in the Safari Zone. Realizing that its new trainer was calm, it settled down, but still liked to battle. It evolved in the Johto Region.
    Scizor: When Scyther evolved in the Johto region, in a battle against Team Rocket. It was outnumbered, and it was being beaten badly by three opposing Houndour. All three using fire attacks to trap Scyther like Fire Spin, Scyther had no way of escaping. Not wanting to give up or lose against Team Rocket, he raises his swords into the air, using whatever energy he had left to evolve into Scizor. Scizor escaped from the flames with speed, and quickly knocked out the three Houndour, and Team Rocket.

    Aipom:
    Gender: Female
    Personality: A hyper little monkey, it enjoys battling, always the first to step out into a battle. It can be shy when around other Pokemon and not in battle, but she always gets out of her shell to play. When in intense battle, she goes from playful to dead serious.
    History: When Pat was battling the third gym leader of Johto, Whitney, they were battling in one of the outfields. Whitney's Miltank was on the attack, using a constant Rollout, knocking over everything. It slammed a tree, causing Pokemon that were thriving in it to fall out. Aipom fell out, and started attacking Miltank in anger. It had no chance, so Pat threw a Pokeball at it before it was put in any danger, and thus so it became a part of his team.

    Buizel
    Gender: Male
    Personality: A really hot headed Pokemon, and Pats most recent catch. It always wants to battle, and he is unable to control his power if losing in a match. Not much else is known about Buizel's personality.
    History: Pats most recent catch. Pat walked up to a riverbank when he first got into Sinnoh, amazed at all the sights and places. He decided to go swimming in a lake named Verity. He swam down to around the bottom, and saw a Buizel caught by an underwater vine. It was trying to get out, but couldn't. Pat couldn't hold his breath much longer, so he quickly swam to it, to cut the vine, freeing the Buizel. But, doing so, he used up the last of his air. He coughed, and began floating up to the water, out of air. Buizel began pushing him up to the surface as quickly as possible. It took him a few minutes to recover, but he was a-okay. He looked up and saw his savior looking down at him, and the Buizel demanded a battle. Pat battled it with his Scizor. He caught it quickly. Since then, he has had Buizel for 1 week.

    Finally, RP Sample. (OPTIONAL PEOPLE, REMEMBER.)

    Age: 15

    Personality: Minos is not a very social person. He prefers to be alone due to his 'split' personality. He is a genius at fixing machines and modifying equipment, especially his pokegear which now includes everything you could possibly need and several things you will not need.

    History: Minos was born an orphan, his father died before he was born and his mother in childbirth. All efforts to trace his family have failed. He was eventually sent to live with his godfather in a small house on Mt. Silver. Minos was trained in pokemon battling from an early age. His whole life was blown apart when his godfather went missing presumed dead after a Tyranitar rampage. He set off with his Metagross and eventually came to the Orre region at the time of the first shadow pokemon outbreak. He attacked the shadow pokemon lab and came to the machine used to create shadow pokemon. Having seen what they became after this was used, he plunged through throwing the togepi out. As the process was not designed for humans, Minos ended up with a 'shadow self' this takes over sometimes. Because of this, Minos left Orre taking the Togepi with him, he also took the gift of a time flute which he uses to keep his shadow self at bay.

    Appearence: Short Brown hair that only just covers his forehead. His eyes are brown and he is slightly taller than average, but nothing special.

Empoleon is shy, but don't let his shyness fool you. In battle he's quick and strong.Why?

Staraptor like to take down his opponets slowly to make it look good. He has extremely good speed, and high defense. His attacks are ok. Why? See Staraptor's original trainer was a coordnaitor.

    Fine:

    https://firefly.pokemonfanuniverse.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=232&pid=2246

    An RP, created by yours truly,

    and an example:

    Balk was up early the next morning despite the excitement of the previous night. Attacks by Team X, A half dozen kids showing up to follow him, the rebirth of an extinct pokemon, the man in the purple robes just took it all in stride. Now he was waking everyone else up, having prepared a meal of some, crispy blackish disks. He thought they were pancakes, but it was certainly debatable.

    "Everyone up! There's breakfast but we don't have that long to eat! Team X and the Ebon Order are lurking around Mossdeep. They've probably set up some hiding holes where they're plotting. More importantly, the Book of Secrets and Quintinus's sister are out there as well. Our best bet is to split up in teams and search seperate sections of the city. That we we cover more ground, we'll be spread out enough so they can't get the drop on us all, and we search faster."

    The man took a bite out of his own blackened frisbee, having poured some kind of sickly sweet sap on it. All around him, his pokemon also chomped down on the crispy 'food'. All except the Unown, Oblivion, which didn't seem to require food at all. With a gulp of his juice Balk continued.

    "All right, There's seven of us, that's around three to a team with one left over to either coordinate things or for a less experienced person to tag with someone a little tougher for protection. Who's going with who?"


    It was the first thing I could find for myself.

    Name: Jacob Lucifer Silver

    Nickname: Jake

    Age: 15

    Gender: Male

    Appearance: Jake generally has a typical "antihero" appearance. He has a thin face and a slim build, with the bangs of his black hair reaching down almost to his dark brown eyes. Due to his tendency to scowl most of the time, he has small shadows under his eyes that serve to highlight the intensity of his appearance. Running with his natural features, Jake chooses to wear a black cloak, which he fastens at his waist with a chain, that shrouds his body and shades his face. This cloak, however, isn't nearly as heavy as it looks, so he also wears jeans and a black T-shirt underneath it. To complete this look, he wears simple black sneakers that aren't usually seen beneath the cloak. A notable detail is that Jake doesn't carry a bag of items, as he always either carries things in pockets in his cloak or makes medicine on the spot out of herbs.

    Personality: Usually, Jake acts as his appearance suggests. He is rather distant and doesn't often talk to people. When someone insists on bothering them, he either ignores them or scowls until they understand that they should go away. Most of the time, he is only truly open with his Pokemon, and talks to them quite often. Despite his attitude, Jake is really rather laid-back and doesn't like to rush things, and also tends to open up a bit to anyone who manages to win him over. On the flipside, he doesn't like to use much energy and often avoids problems to begin with, and usually quits speaking altogether if an argument starts. Despite his negative tendencies, Jake has a strong sense of justice and will fight hard for what he believes is right. He is very analyzing and thoroughly thinks a situation through before acting, unless he is highly enraged or curious. During battles and tense situations, however, his manipulative attribute truly shows itself. He uses adept strategies to run his opponents into a corner, so to speak, all the while working them into a frenzy by expressing the assuredness of his victory. Though Jake often seems arrogant, he really suffers from a lack of confidence, despite his skill and discipline. He dislikes arrogant new trainers who "get a fresh caught Pokemon and think they can rule the world, until reality hits them hard in the face." Jake likes music, poetry, art, and spicy foods. He dislikes crowds, conversation, and sunlight.

    History: Jake comes from Hoenn's crater city of Sootopolis, from a rather high profile family, and is appointed as the guard of the sacred Cave of Origin. Throughout childhood, he preferred the company of books and the Trainer's School to most people, and is now actually quite an expert on the myths and legends of the Pokemon world. At age 10, he flew on his dad's Pidgeot (which he now uses frequently for travel and has a special whistle to summon) to the mainland of Hoenn to train Pokemon. Being so new at it, he didn't have the slightest idea as to how to live on his own for such an extended period, and quickly found himself completely lost in a forest, and of course ended up sick and poisoned from bad berries. And of course, in classic tragic flashback fashion, it started raining so he hid himself in the hollow of a tree, trying to rest in hopes that his illness would work itself out. Of course, it didn't, but again in true perfect timing sappy flashback fashion, he was found by a Houndoom. Shortly after it appeared, Jake fainted, the awoke later in a clearing with several Pecha berry bushes. He camped there for a while until he fully recovered, then left, with the Houndoom following him. Both he and Houndoom have been loyal to one another ever since. After that, he specialized in the Dark type and refused to train anything else. He quickly became skilled with his Houndoom and other Pokemon he obtained, and later accidentally became the Gym Leader in a small town nestled in the mountains east of Blackthorn City in Johto, called Redwood Town. He had been training in the vicinity and was noticed and challenged by a couple of the townspeople, who turned out to be underlings of the recently closed Redwood Gym, whose previous leader had retired. Since the town is out of the way, Jake's traveling doesn't usually cause a problem, but he frequently has several battles stacked up on his routine visits to town. Other than that, he has been wrapped up in other issues as well, including one with Team Magma that he refuses to speak of, and an organization he is currently in that works to prevent disasters caused by legendary Pokemon, known simply as the Redwood Emergency Brigade.

    Jake is currently on a vacation in Sinnoh, trying to stay as far away from Johto and Hoenn as possible.

    (... Did I type all that?)

    Pokemon Team

    Pokemon: Houndoom
    Nickname: None Given
    Gender: Male
    Personality: Houndoom is closely bonded to its Trainer, and the two share many personality traits. It is often aloof compared to Jake's other Pokemon, but is friendly with them as well. It is quiet and reserved, but is very powerful in battle.
    Obtained: ~~History~~

    Pokemon: Weavile
    Nickname: None Given
    Gender: Male
    Personality: A bit of a joker, Weavile reflects all the friendly parts of Jake's personality. It is always eager to battle, train, or do something; it simply cannot keep still. Weavile is overtly headstrong and often gets itself into trouble.
    Obtained: On a visit to the Shoal Cave, Jake found this Pokemon as a Sneasel that was being attacked by a horde of Spheal that it had apparently enraged somehow. Acting without thinking, he jumped forward and blocked about 20 simultaneous Aurora Beams. The grateful Sneasel became loyal to him, whereas Houndoom spent the rest of the day thawing its Trainer out. Sneasel later evolved into Weavile during a bout of nighttime training.

    Pokemon: Umbreon
    Nickname: None Given
    Gender: Female
    Personality: Umbreon is the most withdrawn of Jake's Pokemon, and also the weakest in battle. Although it works well with nearly any other Pokemon in Double Battles, it isn't very good in Single Battles, but the flexibility of its single type and defense gives it a strong point as a good leadoff Pokemon. Umbreon is a frequent target of Weavile's pestilence.
    Obtained: Jake was given an Eevee as a gift by his family on his first anniversary of becoming a Trainer. Oddly enough, it evolved into an Umbreon immediately when he obtained it.

    RP Sample: ((No. No way. Not after that crazed-up uber-long history. No. I'm not even going to bother with this one.))

    Additional Notes: Jake has other Pokemon staying at his gym in Redwood Town, and has a device from the Redwood Emergency Brigade that allows him to remotely swap Pokemon. The device has a tendency to work erratically, but Jake uses it frequently for the convenience. Any additional Pokemon brought into the story will be added to my sign-up.

    Also, Jake sometimes displays odd abilities when enraged or in desperate danger. He has no idea himself how he does this, nor why it happens, but it tends to kick in and save him at the most timely moments. Just thought I'd give a heads up on that.

    ((Someone just PM me or something when this starts. I'm really sick of my keyboard right now. I may have gone a bit overboard with the sign-up. I suppose that's what I get for always using the same character and developing him excessively.))
