Champion of Galar at age 12? Doesn't that seem kind of young?
And we literally had this discussion about how people becoming Elite Four members being younger than 18 is young. XD goodness.

Now that I look at it, it does seem kinda young. But don’t trainers get their first Pokemon at 10 or 11?
Yes, but that doesn’t mean they will be champion within a year, we tend to follow the anime representation of champions. Being pinnacles of strength and skill that only a select few would even be able to challenge let alone defeat
They do, but the games portray kids beating champions at such young ages and being able to blast through a region in several hours as wish-fullfillment. In the anime, the paygrade for Elite Four members and Champions are way higher than anything we have seen in the games. Ash was able to beat Brandon from the Frontier Brains but he has yet to defeat any Elite Four member or Champion, and that's because they have been training their Pokemon for years and probably got sponsorships to become champions (meaning companies try and buy them in).
Yea, but you think being on a journey for a year some1 can get a strong enough party well trained enough to take on a league champion? your character is 18, so its possible to spread out the events more.
Celeste for example spent over 10 years collecting and training her team before she started challenging the champions.
Just try to think of it in a bit more anime-like terms rather than the games. E4 and the Champs are basically professional trainers, its what they do for a living lol

Plus, it has been noted that it takes several days to a good week of traveling on a route to even get through it completely. If you gungho your way through, like what Ash did in Episode 1, you can make it to Viridian City from Pallet Town within a day and a half, but it took his dad 3 days to complete one route in the region. Granted, that is considered a small route compared to the other routes in different regions. Which is always why I have a large gap between my characters traveling between regions, because it takes a good half a year to get through one if you aren't even sightseeing.
Lmao, the Galarian protagonists look like 10-14 years old. I know I shouldn't judge by age but look at them! They look so young-
That is logical. Ash never gets old, though.
Mhm.
Red and Blue were technically 11 when they went on journey in Red, Blue, and Green. The oldest looking protagonists, who I could have sworn I have seen the ages for, are Black, White, Black 2, and White 2, where those four looked like they were 15-16.
Pretty sure it is 10 years old x3
@Frontier Master I am actually going to post in a few minuets if you'd still want to start a conversation, sry its taking me a bit lol
Don't worry, you post such long sentences xD
That's a good thing! Because I get bored when no-ones online TwT

Apologies if there are some grammar errors, I'll put out a clearer set of the point system and other unclear rules or thing that I might have missed in here if its not too clear in the RP, or characters can ask in the RP and i'll just have the NPC clear things up in the RP
Sleep for now, got a another largish post to make for another RP tomorrow i can hopefully get done in the morning lol

Okay! By the way, you can interact with my character if you want, I'll just assume Jasmine saw you taking a selfie-and decided to take a picture on the other side.
Or you left because time-skip

Feel free anyone to come up and challenge Hyōga, he’s semi-famous for his Ice-Type mastery so that would allow any easy ‘in’ for anyone unsure how to initiate conversation with him
Jasmine isn't looking for battling yet, maybe just a little chit-chat. I feel too lazy to write a battle, but if you want I can challenge your Character! Maybe just place your character somewhere near Jasmine xD
if you do want to battle. I feel somewhat lazy but for action, I guess I'll do it xD
Hyōga and Jasmine can just chat if you’d like, it was an open invitation to anyone
@Captain Cardboard,
Do think it would work for either Q or Kay to seek the other out for a Gallade vs. Gallade battle? Q mentioned such a battle on the boat.

Yeah, I think that would be pretty great!
Oh, I'm thinking of letting Shade mingle in the crowd of newbies and figuring people out. XD
Oh, does my character also have that weird Veritas Trainer Card?
Would the win/loss ratios stay after every season, or do they reset once the new season starts? And what would a good win/loss ratio be for my character if it does stay? Because I'm thinking she has been to Veritas a good 4 or 5 times and became a Battle Master at the 5th, and since she loves to fight and show off how brutal her Pokemon are...
Win/Loss are cumulative and per-season depending on what your looking for, it records both/ there are kiosks in their own rooms and spread across the island that people have access to by inserting their card into to pull up their information. A general good standing for everyone is roughly a 50% win loss ratio.
For Tier 1 Battlemasters, since they tend to be the newer ones, their ratios are closer to the participants but a bit higher around 55% and some more veteran ones pushing 60% against participants / challengers
Tier 2 are closer to 57% and more veteran ones pushing 65% against participants / challengers
Tier 3 are closer to 64% and more veteran ones pushing 67% - 70% against participants / challengers
These are all from their totals not season to season, and as Battlemasters they tend to battle a ton so moving percentages around can be tough.
Spire Masters ratios tend to be more on the extreme side of things with the weaker ones fluctuating between 75% - 80% against participants / challengers and the stronger ones at 83% - 89% against participants / challengers
Which reminds me
@Merciless Medic @soxterluna @Frontier Master you guys can decide which tier of Battlemaster you guys want to be, keep in mind the higher the tier the more tenure they have at the Spire, a new Battlemaster has to start as a Tier 1

Yea, Shade is more of a Tier 1, but has a 57% in win/loss ratio, due to the Ghost- and Psychic-Typed Pokemon sharing a weakness (Dark), Dark- and Psychic-Typed Pokemon sharing a weakness (Bug), and some of their weaknesses being fairly common. What also doesn't help is that their brutality can knock themselves out.
Shade's goal this season is to try and hit a 60% win/loss ratio. Right now, she hasn't battled anyone, so her ratio this season is null, but she would like to try and make it to 60% this season and hopefully that brings it up to 60% in total.
If I do some quick maths to even get a total of 57%, uhhh I will need a fat minute.

So the Island is fairly huge, not small enough for someone to walk around it in one day. The main area where the people arrived is the southern part of the island, to the west is the resort area including the beach, both of these places are connected to the city on the center of the island via roads and trails which is also where the Spire itself is. The city was designed by trainers, for trainers, and includes shops, restaurants, living spaces, shopping districts etc. The Grandmasters Battle Arena is a bit further north of the Spire and slightly off to the east.
To the east is a massive wild area that connects to a small mountain range that wraps around and takes most of the northern part of the island and a bit into the west side. the wild area includes forests, grasslands, caves, mountainous areas, mountains, snow areas if you go high enough into the mountains. There are lifts to take people there from the city

Does the wild area have Wild Pokemon to fight and capture?
Oh, yea, almost forgot but somehow, Shade doesn't know what a single Galar Pokemon is and will find them very interesting. She may try to offhandedly research them as she sees them. But I'll make a post where Shade is mingling with the new peeps without them knowing she's a Battle Master soon.

Yes the wild has many many Pokémon to battle and capture if a trainers wants, and most species that are quite rare in the native habitats are more common on the island. But due to the trainers on the island the wild Pokémon are no slouches, and many have odd friendships with others and battling multiple Pokémon at once is common as for calling for assists. They are not afraid of trainers and often times are willing to battle to assist in training or will help if asked.
@Merciless Medic that's interesting, well Ceres will be battling with her Dragapult in the opening ceremony.

If anyone has a character that has a Pokedex or something, can my character sit next to them during the opening ceremony so she can have a bit of an explanation as to what the different Galar Pokemon are?
I would just like to have a bit of control on what the Pokedex says, but that's all. :3 If not, then I'll just have my character figure it out by herself.

@Merciless Medic Bailey has a Pokedex that he recieved in Sinnoh, it's one of the reasons he returned to Unova.
Oh so the tiers are tenure based? I assumed they were ranked by their ratios, hence I was going to place Emily Jane as high Tier 2 or low tier 3
