i've been in many an RP, but one of my favourites was one that traversed the hoenn region. i loved the people, the characters and the region- hoenn is one of my favourites, after all- and i wanted to open up a hoenn RP of my own! So... here it is.
now, there will probably be a developing side plot, but mostly, this will be a 'do-whatever-you-want' sort of rp. but, i do have some rules:
★ regular pokécharms rules apply- if you continuously break them, i will request your removal.
★ romance is allowed because i'm a sucker for it, but keep it pg- nothing beyond a passionate kiss.
★ on the topic of romance, please allow for it to develop first before getting into anything. don't have two characters get together after knowing each other for like, a day.
★ your character can come from any region as long as there is a legitimate reason as to why they're in hoenn.
★ don't be really edgy. if you're like, an emo kid who only wears black, who has a rare pokémon that is all-black with blood red eyes, who is looking to avenge their dead parents and is a huge jerk to everyone, then i'm not going to accept you
★ on that topic, of course your character can be a jerk, but if you are oocly being horrible to people then get off my lawn
★ please don't make things all about your character all the time. allow other people to have fun in the spotlight.
★ and for the love of god, if i see any drama conga lines i'm gonna flip my desk. I've had so much of them in my rps, i just wanna have fun people, don't make everything life-or-death
★ please include the codeword 'japanese dijon' to prove you read these!
★ please only one shiny per person, and no fakemon!
★ only up to two pokemon per person starting off, even if they are an experienced trainer- i would like everyone to be largely in the same boat.
★ please read bios and posts before interacting with characters.
okay, now that's all sorted... here's the application form! (and, below it, my character form)
oh by the way there's no official pokemon form, just include whatever info you want lol
Name:

Personality:
Backstory:
Pokémon:
Other:
Name: Saiorse Byrne (sir-sha burn)
Gender: Female
Age: 15
Ethnicity: Caucasian // Hoennian
Appearance: Saiorse has long, wavy ginger hair that falls over her right eye and dark blue eyes. She has lots of freckles and has a very pale complexion. She always wears black bottoms, be it a skirt or jeans, and a teal or white top. Her favourite item of clothing is her teal wooly jumper. She has a brown messenger bag with necessities such as clothes inside, and a moleskine notebook containing her ideas for contest performances. Saiorse is rather tall, standing at about 5”7, and has quite a thin and delicate-looking figure. She’s pretty flat-chested.
Personality: Saiorse is very insecure about her appearance and feels as if she is inadequate when it comes to her looks, always trying to hide as much of her face as possible with her hair or hands. She’s soft-spoken, reserved and cowardly, though is polite, gentle and compassionate. She has a very close bond with her Mudkip, Snooch, and often chooses to talk to him instead of humans. Saiorse is incredibly awkward and often trips over her words, and is a frequent stutterer, most noticably having issues with her 't's. Despite what you would outwardly think due to her general nervousness, Saiorse has quite a cynical and dry sense of humor and often makes self-deprecating jokes. Due to the fact she grew up in such a secluded and quiet place, and her general affinity for messing up social situations, Saiorse does not deal very well at all with loud, crowded places, often prone to panic attacks when in those sorts of places. She is a very light sleeper.
Backstory: Born and raised in Pacifidlog Town, a small and secluded ocean town in Hoenn, Saiorse developed a love for water types and a crippling inability to talk to people normally, except from her mother and her brother Aodh. Her father left them when her mother was pregnant with Saiorse and Aodh was 6. They lived a quaint and happy life, Saiorse recieving a Mudkip as a 10th birthday gift from her mother, whom she named Snooch. About once or twice a year, Saiorse's mother would take them to see a contest in Lilycove City, and Saiorse developed a fascination with contests and a quick mind to think of move combos. However, when Saiorse was 14, her mother died suddenly of a terrible illness. She left her Lapras to Aodh and her Altaria to Saiorse, but Saiorse didn't feel ready to look after Altaria, so gave her to Aodh. Altaria soon laid an Egg which was given to Saiorse, hatching into a Swablu that she named Fiona, after her mother. However, Saiorse had sunk into a depression, not wanting to leave the house or do anything. She lost her previously big appetite, and never really got it back. After seeing his sister in this state, Aodh encouraged her to go and journey through Hoenn, doing contests just as she had wanted to for her whole life. Saiorse accepted, though was not sure if she was truly ready.
