• Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.

Ask to Join Pokemon world Journey

This is an RP where a group of friends are travelling around the regions to fulfill their dreams. This RP takes place around the time of Sword and Shield. It has caused a lot of pokemon from other regions to be brought into others. This means that Kanto has seen an increase of pokemon that were not native to the region years prior. Though they are still rare and are more then likely released by their previous trainer.

Our Journey starts in Kanto, with a group of young trainers, coordinators, researchers, breeders, and anything in between. The young trainers will encounter a resurgence of Team Rocket. Which is back into the goal of taking over the world, under their rule. Now this is to say they are still not the brightest, but they are more competent then the last group. No one knows who the new leader is, but that will not stop the group from coming after what they want.

There will be moments in the story where I have planned a key element in the story. It will further the journey forward, and keep people interested. I will drop hints with things that might happen in the story here and there, but I will try to be vague about it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rules

  1. Be kind to others. This is a collaborative effert to further the story. This means that you can not write others into a way where they have to act how you want them to.
  2. This is about newish trainers, and with exception, maybe an older character who is more experienced.
  3. If you want to join, send me a message with your favorite color, and the completed bio.
  4. No legendary pokemon, as they require permission to even be seen by characters.
  5. Mega pokemon, will need to be ran by me, and approved by the admins. The reason I say ran by me, this way I can accommodate it into the story, though only if you are given permission for it's use.
  6. Characters are allowed to have up to two pokemon in the begining.
  7. When we reach a new region, your character will be given the chance to choose your partner pokemon to take to the new region.
  8. If after the completion of a region, you want to make a new character to do the rest of the journey you may. If you do not want to stop using a character, then please make an out post. This is so your character has all of their loose strings attached.
  9. You are allowed to have up to two characters at a time in a region. Not including NPC rivals. Though the rivals will need to be ran by me as well.
  10. Romance is allowed, though please keep it pg-13. This is a family friendly site, we do not want to upset the children.

Kanto
Pokemon Rules-

  1. I am ok with double pokemon, as most of the time, they have different personalities.
  2. Shinies are allowed, but only one per region if you want. They are susposed to be rare, but I know that I do not enjoy the original coloring of some pokemon, so this what I will allow.
  3. Baby pokemon that are found in later games are alllowed to be caught. (Muchlax, elkid, pichu, etc.) I do this as I hate to that Kanto is kind of limited in that way.
  4. If a pokemon evolves later on in a different region, then it is allowed. (Blissy, elevtervire, magaton, etc.)
  5. All eeveeultion are allowed to be had in Kanto. I do not see why it would not be allowed as Eevee can evolve into so many different pokemon in later regions.

Age: 15
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Personality: Amethyst is a quiet girl. She loves to read, draw, and hang out with friends who she feels she can be open with. She dislikes places with lots of noise, and has claustrophobia. (I really need to flesh out personality more, but I’m out of time to work on this... so I will just develop it in-RP)
Height: ?
Defining Feature: ?
Physical Appearance: Amethyst is a little on the small side. She has blonde hair that reaches just past her shoulders, and it is pretty difficult to keep tamed. She has blue eyes, and pale skin. Her wardrobe varies, but she usually leans towards softer colors, often pastel pinks, purples and blues. She always goes for what she thinks is pretty, and doesn’t care much about functionality.
Occupation: Performer... kinda.
Starter: Ren (Male Fenniken)
Other Pokemon: Egg (Bergmite)
Name: David (Middle and last names Alexander Chipperton)
Age: 14 (Says he's 15, and looks like he could be)
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Straight
Personality: He can be a bit of a jokester, and enjoys pranks. I actually need to work on his personality in RP, because the RP he was in gave no opportunities for interaction...
Height: 6'1
Defining Feature: Ummm....?
Physical Appearance: His eyes are light blue with a slight grey-green tinge. He has short, light brown hair, but while he wants to grow it out and dye it, he can't. He is caucasian.
Clothing: Almost always something functional and comfortable, like jeans, a shirt (Likely with something from a movie or a pun [or both] on it), and a zip-up hoodie. He doesn't really have a lot of options. He also has tennis shoes and a black backpack. On his wrist is a friendship bracelet made of different colored strings, which matches the one worn by Alex.
Occupation: Trainer?
Starter: Puff the Pidove
Pokemon:
Name: Puff
Species: Pidove (Normal/Flying)

Ability: Super Luck (Increased Critical Hit range)
Held Item: N/A
Moves: Quick Attack, Gust, Leer
History: David caught Puff as a Pidove when he was 14 years old. I can't give too many details on this one, because part of the backstory is secret for now.
Name: Helm
Species: Accelgor (Bug)
Gender: Male
Personality: Helm is stubborn and aggressive. He is confident in his skills and will take on opponents far out of his class, even when his trainer tells him not to. In fact, he generally ignores his trainer during battles and takes matters into his own... hands? Um, aggressively crossed arms. In battle he goes for speed and evasion, moving like a blur and striking when an opportunity presents itself.
Ability: Sticky Hold (Prevents loss of item)
Held Item: N/A
Moves: Acid, Absorb, Struggle Bug,
History: Originally owned by Alexia, she traded her Shelmet for his Karrablast because each wanted the other species, but had only been able to find the one they knew the other wanted. Much t both the trainers' surprise, the two bugs evolved through the trade. Since then David has worked hard to get to know Helm, and to get the stubborn bug to cooperate with David and the rest of the team.

He loves Pokemon with a strong passion and wouldn't hesitate to help them out if needed, this love is strong enough for him to loathe trainers who mistreat their Pokemon or simply see them as tools... this however isn't as strong as his hatred for losing as he views it as humiliation rather than a 'lesson' an is known to be rather cruel when angry. The most likely time someone will see Tony smile is during a heated Pokemon battle. Some people say Tony used to be a much more cheerful person in the past, but 'something' in his past changed him forever.

Of course it will take a lot of time for him to get this team. The Beartic will have a connection to Tony's past.

@JayTaku I have to say, if David and Yuuki battled right off the bat, I’d give the odds to David. While he doesn’t have a ton of experience with Pokémon, both of his Pokémon are good against grass.
Yeahh, Yuuki is fairly competent but he doesn’t have much experience either and relies too much on speed and power as mentioned in his bio.

Otherwise, he a calm, cool, and collected pokemon with a strong sense of justice and a burning passion for battles, and despite is constant squabbles with Ben, he's very concerned for his safety.

I'm not Emo, but I would suggest that it's reasonable to have more than 4 moves later in the game, although at the very beginning there are certainly less. And I don't know what will be said about abilities, but I know I've used Garchomp with both Rough Skin and Sand Veil in the past, because a Garchomp naturally blends in in the desert and has rough skin.
 
Couple questions if you don't mind
1) Are we following the 4 move limit?
2) Are abilities going to be part of the pokemon? Is it only one ability?
3. Are the starters first come first served, or can two of the same be chosen?
Abilities will play a part in the story, as these are apart of pokemon, so it will be used. As for starters, I have stated that I do not mibd that people have the same one, as most of the time pokemon have different personalities anyway. Though I do not want this to get out of hand where we have 5 eevees at one point.
