Everyone grows up eventually.
Let's Go, Onwards! is an alternate universe RP focused on a potential new season of the Pokemon Anime that returns to Kanto. We'll be following Ash as our main protagonist once again, but this Ash is actually 13 - yes, he's aged! Ash is 13 thanks to his adventures in Unova, Kalos and Alola, which will all be treated as canon during the RP with some crossover from the previous seasons - think of this as the DC: Rebirth of the Pokemon anime. Alongside Ash are Serena and Brock, who join him as he travels across the Kanto region once more. This new journey for a shot at the Kalos league brings with it several new challenges, such as revitalized gym leader battles, intense rivals, fierce contests and Team Rocket's expanded motives! It's time for Ash to revisit the Indigo League and truly prove he's the best there is.
Ash, Serena and Brock are the main characters in the RP, but that doesn't mean there aren't others as well! Namely the Team Rocket trio, as in Jesse, James and Meowth, return to a starring role during the RP. Other mainstays, such as Alain, Clemont and May will also pop up from time to time - let's call them Secondary Characters. There's also the Gym Leaders and Elite 4. All of these characters are available to be taken, and will be reoccuring! Only one member of the main trio may be taken per RPer, same with the Secondary Characters. Ash, Serena and Brock all have three main Pokemon with them already, but the other three catches are up to RPers' discretion. Team Rocket has free reign over their Pokemon. Each of the Gym Leaders will have teams similar to both their anime and game counterparts.
Some original characters will be allowed for the sakes of things such as the Pokemon League, but be aware that any original characters created for the sake of the RP will not have a major role. Furthermore, OC inclusion will be sporadic and temporary.
When it comes to Mega Evolutions like with Alain's Mega Charizard and Brock's Mega Steelix, they’re not 100% needed for their characters and Stellar has said their RPers will have to fully elaborate on Mega potential on a case-by-case basis, just like any regular Mega situation. Just know that it shouldn't happen anyways during the early stages of the RP, it's why Ash will be getting his more powerful Pokemon back later - I'd like to try and power-scale appropriately if possible.
As for plot? I already have the basics for Team Rocket's plot figured out, but for the moment it will start off like any other season of the Pokemon anime. We'll talk about how the main group will meet up when people sign up.
But for the moment? Let's get to it! ONWARDS! (...see what I did there?)
Also, for reference, I'm looking for high-quality RPers for this. If your RPing fails to meet the quality I'm looking for, I'm afraid I'll have to reject you.
Just gonna tag @Godjacob, @Excalibur Queen and @Pro Hero Dekiru quickly, la-di-dah...
