May I please ask I have a character ready to submit but how are the warlords that use dark types or fire types mainly because i have given this character a houndour and made his elements dark and fire.

I believe this is the only Warlord who uses Dark or Fire-types so far.
 
Name: Mercury Blade

Gender: Male

Age: 20

Preferred Element: Dark and Fire

Description: Mercury, or Blade as his foes call him, is a former wanderer who pledged himself to Kyo after she took over her kingdom from her father and will always follow her orders even if it prevents him from enjoying a good battle. He is a relatively tall man standing at 6'4 with a lean and flexible, which helps with his hit and run fighting tactics. But although he uses hit and run tactics he is a man of honour and doesn't underestimate his foes

He has red eyes that shimmer like ember and shine like rubies, and has hair as black as the midnight sky above. However neither is really seen during combat as he wears a cloak which his foes say is draped in shadows. Underneath this he wears light leather armour in order to keep a fast speed and below that chain mail for extra protection. They only visible armor he wears during combat other than his cloak is his metal capped red leather gloves, greaves and boots. With his two spears strapped to his back, which he utilises with his flaming shadows spear style for precise attacks.

Weapon: A short spear and A long spear

Special Ability: Night's embrace

Boosts the power of his partners dark type moves and gives his weapons the dark element.

Partner Pokemon: Houndour
Egg Moves: Thunder fang, Fire fang

Warlord: Kyo Hakone

I now have two more unmade warriors but they are first come, first served to any warlords how would like a retainer if mercury is acceptable.

I accept you as my retainer, I have two now yay.


@Grand Master Koop Im making a retainer with a goomy, would your kingdom accept?
 
Then there is one more warrior available via me but remember it is first come first served. By the way mango would nincada work or would you prefer something a bit more exotic like say onix. As their what I'm thinking right now alongside gible for the partner then I'll start making him.
Gible or Onix would be best. I love gible, but honestly I envisioned steelix as one of the most perfect Pokémon for the village

Looks great to me! Only one thing, the orphanage wouldn’t be orphans from the mountain, it is a small village filled with very dutiful people, so it would not likely have many orphans; though I like the idea that they would rescue orphans from places beyond the mountain

Accepted, though keep in mind there are no abilities with infinite duration.

Minus a certain special exemption.

Name: Unknown. Known only as the Mountain Lord.
Gender: Male
Age: 27
Preferred Element: Rock/Ground
Description: The true face of the Mountain Lord is hidden from all but his most trusted followers. What the world knows is the imposing, heavily-plated dark green metal armor that seems to be almost a walking mountain itself. The black accents of the armor outline joints and facial features. The only exposed part of the body the Mountain Lord has is his red hair spilling out behind the helmet.
Weapon: The Mountain Lord carries a pair of large metal shields painted dark green like the rest of his armor, the edges bladed.
Special Ability: "None may move the Mountain Lord!" Fully negates knockback whenever the Mountain Lord stands on solid ground.
Partner Pokemon: Tyranitar.
Name: Aegis Mountain
Description: A titanic mountain that almost touches the clouds themselves, with the palace taking the shape of a ring constructed near the top. The town is spread across the mountain's sheer face with many stairs, elevators and pulleys for navigation. In the winter, the path up to the Monolith Palace - throne of the Mountain Lord - becomes entirely inaccessible due to fierce torrents and snowstorms. The town has many natural and artificial defenses and contingencies in case of rainstorms or hailstorms. Due to the altitude, however, Aegis Mountain battles are naturally much colder.
Battle Terrain: Aegis Mountain is divided into four levels.
Border Keep: A defensive fortress connected to the tall, solid wall that rims the entirety of the mountain's base, serving as a choke point all invaders must pass through. It is lined with various ballistas for archers and flight decks for flying-types, as well as a wide spread of pitfalls and other hidden traps set up long in advance to deal with invaders. A treacherous battlefield.
Steep Cities: The various settlements located across Aegis Mountain - whoever controls the central lifts around the town controls the movement and flow of troops, making them very important. A destroyed lift can take weeks to repair. Depending on just where you fall off, it could be a deadly fall back to the base of the mountain. Trap doors have been installed to weaponize this.
Glacial Climb: The hike up the side of Aegis Mountain is treacherous, even with well-worn and solid pathways and structures. The possible safe routes are limited, and even a slight wind can make falling to your death a very real possibility. The best bet of any warrior is locating secret tunnels inside the mountain, safe from the wind and hail.
Monolith Palace: The center of the Mountain Lord's power, Monolith Palace forms a large ring around the peak of Aegis Mountain, with six different central towers holding up the palace. Each of the towers are capable of being a different sort of elemental boost, magically invigorating and strengthening the powers of a certain element of Pokémon. By default, this is either Rock, Ground, Ice or Flying.
...I may have put a bit too much thought into my kingdom, but I'm going to play this as Pokémon Fire Emblem, damn it! Anyways, here's our big bad. If anyone wants to make the Mountain Lord some servants, feel free and we can talk about them (with Kyuu) in a PC!

And accepted!






By the way, if anyone has any ideas for larger-scale battles please feel free to bring them up. The duel system is mostly in place to ensure that a snowball effect doesn't occur where after conquering one or two nations you can woefully outnumber any possible opponent and then just trample them.

If anyone can think of a way to keep things fun and enjoyable while also allowing for larger battles, then I'm all ears.
 
I went full Aztec on this one

Name: Yaotl Zuma
Gender: Male
Age: 25
Preferred Element: Fighting
Description: Yaotl is extremely strong, but nowhere near the brightest. He often charges headfirst into combat with no hesitation. This can make him a bit of a loose cannon; however, when utilized underneath a warlord who he respects and can control him, Yaotl becomes an invaluable asset.

Yaotl stands at about 7’2 and weighs an extremely muscular 320. He has long dark green hair that flows down to his mid back. Yaotl wears almost no clothes, only having a cheetah pelt cape draped over his shoulders and a dark green loincloth. This reveals his extremely large muscles, tanned skin, and various battle scars.
Weapon: Obsidian Macuahuitl and traditional Aztec shield.
Special Ability: Adrenaline
Partner Pokemon: Hawlucha
Warlord: Up for grabs.
 
Temporary Alliances to stand up to OP empires! Also, let’s say an empire is way too stretched out and none of the defeated warlords chose to join them, each individual castle would be vulnerable to an attack or rebellion to reclaim them.
That's a bit situational though. It'd require that people be forced into an alliance or perish. Also, you can only attack castles adjacent to you, so as long as the Empire is smart in how they conquer, they won't have too many flanks for you to attack. I suppose that depends on the map of the region though, which we haven't exactly made yet.

Rebellions are a thing, of course, but I'd rather not hinge the well-being of all the Warlords on a rebellion.
You could also attack certain weaker castle and start reclaiming them one by one, also cut off the reinforcement routes somehow to make things easier.
This runs into one of the same issues as above. Since you can only attack them from a border you share, as long as they keep the offensive front relatively small there'd be no way for you to do any of that.

Is Adrenaline the same ability that your other character had? If it is then Accepted. I just didn't see a description.
Wait, something seems off here.
Larvitar and Pupitar have Ground, but you're right in noticing that the Mountain Lord's best sync isn't really Tyranitar since it doesn't fit with his specialization.

Adrenaline is a canon ability I believe, which is most likely why it wasn't given a description.
