• 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.
"There were four trainers, masters in their own right, who longed for something more. They wanted to be greater and take their Pokemon to the limit. So they decided to make a league of their own in a place where dreams came true and heroes were born. They were The Elite."

This Rp will, as stated above, revolve around four characters who wish to start their own Pokemon league in a new region that's just being introduced to Pokemon battling as a spectacle sport. Our characters can be from any region on the map and be any age, gender, creed, etc.

The story will begin after our characters have decided to meet one another in person for the first time in the Thavma Region. The Thavma region is based of central New York and is a place full of opportunity and up and comping "Pokemon Heroes" These heroes roam the land helping others with their Pokemon and occasionally battling it out with various opponents in big public spectacles. Some even act as gym leaders and help young trainers make their way to fame and stardom.

Our group has decided that Thavma is a great place to go to organize an Elite Four, as all of us have at least made it through the eight gym leaders in our home regions. Sure enough a new mysterious and mischievous gang will run around causing trouble for everyone while the "Pokemon Heroes" preoccupy themselves with boosting their fame further.

Will we be able to stop this new threat? Will we be accepted by the people of Thavma as their Elite Four? Or will we fail and realize that our goals were not worth perusing in the first place?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If interested in joining know that this rp is a series and will follow our characters exploring the region, beating the evil team (and possibly the gym leaders), and eventually forming the elite four. THIS MAY BE A MORE MATURE RP WITH CURSING, BLOOD, AND MEAN CHARACTERS SO PLEASE KEEP THAT IN MIND.

Romance, kissing, light flirting etc, is allowed as long as there is no smutt involved.

Character Sheet
Name: Anthos
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Appearance:As shown in profile picture

Region of origin: Johto
Pokemon Team (up to six): Typloshion(Zuko), Dragonite, Joleton(Sunny), Espeon(Anzu), Hitmonlee, Tyranitar
Short bio (optional):

As a trainer Anthos always looked up to lance of the Elite Four. He wanted to challange him and become champion of Johto one day and soon enough, with Typloshion by his side, he had the chance to do just that. Anthos's laid back nature had allowed him to deeply bond with all of his Pokemon and yet he felt uneasy and wrong going up against the Elite four. He wondered what would come after he had become champion. Then it hit him, he could travel to a far away land and become a member of the Elite Four there. He would inspire others just as Lance had inspired him.

After becoming the Johto Champion Anthos began to contact other trainners in hopes that they too would want to build a new Elite Four in a foreign region. Although it may have meant he couldn't use his current team Anthos had his eye on the Dragon type specialist in the new Elite Four. He'd make sure to make Lance proud.

Name: Finion Charles
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Appearance: Finion is a rather short (He stands at around 5ft.) but healthy trainer with medium length orange hair, green eyes and a rather pale complexion. He often wears a blue shirt with an orange waist coat over it, jeans with some dark orange boots and a blue hat to top it all off. Finion also has orange goggles which he'll usually put on during battle. (As shown in picture as well, just a little bit chibi)

Region of origin: Sinnoh
Pokemon Team (up to six): Pachirisu, Politoed, Toxicroak, Zoroark, Flygon, Garchomp
Elite team: (Earth) Garchomp, Flygon, Rhydon, Sandslash, Steelix, Golurk
Short bio (optional):

Ever since Finion was a child he always adored Pokemon battles. The amazing scenes they produced and just how cool they were. When he became a trainer he appreciated them even more for the fun he had in them through the intensity and excitement of the fight. He grew close to all of his Pokemon through battling in gyms, leagues and eventually the elite four and champion of Sinnoh. Finion lost to Cynthia, showing him just how much more room he had to grow which was why when a trainer contacted him about heading to a new region and possibly starting up an elite four he was unsure but took the opportunity.

Short bio (optional):

Alexis had always dreamed of being an elite trainer ever since her sister, Annabelle, made it into the Elite Four. She got her starter from the professor and headed off on a journey at a later age than most. Still, she closely bonded with her Pokemon, especially Blade. On a quick trip to Sinnoh, her father decided to give her one of his Pokemon, a Snorunt at the time. From there, she went on to challenge the Elite Four and eventually become champion. This is when she got an invitation to form a new Elite Four.
 
Alright looks like we're all set. Once Kitsune get's approved by the admins I'll write up the starter. If one more person want's to join then post your bio as well.

Short bio (optional): Just... look up my past RPs. Too much to explain. Kaleb wants the Fire type position in this league, or the Champion Position.

Actually, if nobody has taken the Champion Position yet, can i change to that instead? Kaleb has some better non-Fire types that would make this very interesting.
 
We'll all end up competing at the end of the story arc to see who the champion is. We'll capture and train new Pokemon teams as we travel the region and battle the gym leaders and other trainers. So once we all beat the 8th Gym we'll have our elite four teams and then at the end we'll battle in a mini tournament and see who get's to be champion.
 
My character. (Note: I am still waiting for approval for the Mega-Evolution)

Name: Nyx Navi
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Region of origin: Kalos
Pokemon Team:
M-Mawile aka "Midna", Togekiss aka "Nimbus", A-Ninetales aka "Gliss", Lucario aka "Saizo", Tyrantrum aka "Abraxas", Kingdra aka "Coral" (Shiny)
(Alternate Pure Fairy Team)
M-Mawile, Togekiss, A-Ninetales, Whimsicott, Azumarill, Gardevoir
Appearance: Nyx is of native-american descent. A coastal girl, born and raised, her time spend on the beach shows in the sun-kissed color of her tan skin and her wind-swept beach hair. Standing at a short 5’ 1”, Nyx is still waiting (hoping) for a last growth spurt to kick in; it’s difficult to be taken seriously with short stature and a wiry build. But what she lacks in appearance, she makes up for with nerve, shown in the numerous scars. One particularly nasty scar stretches from the base of her right ear to her collar bone, drawing wandering eyes to the pale line of healed skin. Nyx has bright, hazel green eyes that match her mother’s and her father’s strong jaw-line. She would normally be able to say she shared her father’s hair color as well, but she has taken to dyeing her hair the past couple years to a platinum silver. Only the few short inches closest to her scalp retain her natural color, creating a fading ombre effect through her hair length. To combat the heat, she usually wears a good portion of her heavy hair up in a high ponytail. A thin headband woven from leather holds the majority of her hair out of her eyes. The excess of the headband is tied with a clasp at her left temple, where her treasured key stone gleams, and at either end of the dangling strings are feathers from a Togekiss.
She wears dark blue denim jean shorts with a leather belt, waist bag and thigh strap (resembles a thigh holster) that is fixed to her right side. On her left side, a long, tan colored cloth hangs down the length of her leg. Her top consists of layered tank tops; the under tank of which is blue-ish gray in color with an attached hood, while the tank worn over top is white with a couple small Togepi-style triangles on the back.
Personality: Nyx has always had an insatiable thirst for knowledge, a focus primarily set on the pokemon inhabitants of the world. While she has no great issues with people, Nyx holds a cynical view of humanity as a whole, believing most of them to be too lazy and self-serving to achieve anything of value. It is for this reason that she pushes so vehemently to achieve her own aspirations, determined to prove her own self-worth. Perhaps because of this, Nyx radiates an aura of self-confidence and independence. There is no challenge Nyx will accept as unachievable with enough strength of will, but there might be tasks she deems unequal to the effort needed to achieve it.
All of this talent and confidence comes at the cost of perception though. Nyx often comes off as arrogant, judgemental and overly analytical. And while she might have full confidence in her areas of study, the intricacies of social contracts often allude her. She has managed to tackle the other aspects of her life as though moving through a chess board, constantly shifting goals and tasks with careful consideration and long-term strategy; but humans aren’t so easily manipulated. People tend to be overly emotional and unpredictable, and their white lies and small talk downright frustrating.
Nyx was born and raised in the sea side town of Ambrette, in the Kalos region. Her mother being one of the leading marine biologists at the Ambrette Aquarium and her father holding the role of lead scientist in the Fossil Center’s rejuvenation division, the little girl Nyx found herself pushed toward greatness at a very young age. Both her parents seemed determined to push their own passions onto their daughter and have her follow in their footsteps, career wise. While most children recall the play dates and playgrounds from their formative years, Nyxs most prominent childhood memories are of cataloging coral growth in the shoals with her mother or nurturing prehistoric embryos in the lab with her father. But for all their efforts, all her parents manages to do was extinguish the small flame of curiosity their daughter had in their passion with overexposure.

By the time Nyx was old enough to consider her own future career, aquarist and scientist had both lost their lust of mystery. The only thing that stood out in both of her parent’s career choices was the lack of long-term connection with their pokemon companions. The aquarium her mother worked at was first and foremost a rehabilitation facility, meant for the short-term habitation of injured marine wildlife while they recuperated and waited for release. Very few of her mother’s aquatic charges stayed for more than a couple months at a time and any bonds made were temporary and shallow. Her father’s role at the Fossil Center was the same; prehistoric pokemon restored were all too often released to trainers and other facilities and were never around long enough to form attachments to. And a connection was what Nyx craved more than anything else.

Seeing his daughter’s fascination with pokemon, and still determined to embed his own passion for the prehistoric in his daughter, Nyx’s father pulled some strings and managed to obtained a restored fossil pokemon to give to her. Since Nyx wasn’t of legal trainer age yet the little Tyrunt was technically his as far as the law was concerned but it was to his daughter that he entrusted the pokemon’s care. Perhaps it was due to the clear ownership issues that Nyx never really felt like she was doing anymore than borrowing her father’s pokemon. Before the connection between them could blossom, a chance encounter with a wild pokemon ignited a lifelong friendship that her father never could have predicted.

It was during one of her father’s frequent trips into the Glittering Cave, when her father’s rapt supervision waned for a moment too long. Fascinated by the trampling of their little Tyrunt, Nyx wandered further into the twisting caverns than she should have in the pokemon’s wake. She was too young to understand the danger a lone rhyhorn could pose, too innocent to see the the antics of the infant Tyrunt were angering the wild pokemon, and far too ignorant to realize that the rock types kicking signaled the start of a deadly charge attack. Tyrunt had the defenses to endure the hit, but Nyx wasn’t so lucky. The Rhyhorn’s horn left a huge gash where it had struck the young girl and, bleeding and weak, she didn’t have the strength to move out of the way of the second attack even if she’d wanted to.

Mawile was suddenly there, tossing the charging Rhyhorn aside before it could strike the motionless Nyx again. With a echoing Growl from the Fairy pokemon, the Rhyhorn retreated but it’s damage had already been done. With one look at the little girl, mawile raced back through the cave to find Nyx’s father, dragging the bewildered man to where his daughter lay.

Nyx recovered thanks to quick medical attention, but a vicious scar and her protector remained. Even after Nyx’s father had scooped his bleeding daughter into his arms, the mawile had remained resolutely at little Nyx’s side, from hospital to home. Though her parents were bewildered by the wild pokemon’s accompanying their daughter at first, it quickly became clear it meant only to protect her from further harm. And even after Nyx’s recovery, as her adventurous exploits began again, mawile remained, always at Nyx’s side. When Nyx finally reached trainer age and received her license, it was mawile that accompanied her on her initial journey as her ‘starter’ pokemon. Nyx christened her partner Midna, a name taken from one of her favorite video games. Her father’s Tyrunt also accompanied the pair, but despite their childhood connection, the prehistoric pokemon reminded her too much of her father’s pushy ambitions and their early bonding suffered for it.

Nyx had caught and trained a few pokemon by the time she earned her second badge, but it wasn’t until she passed through Ambrette Town that she found another permanent team member. Just as her father had entrusted a symbol of his occupation with his daughter, so too did her mother. A batch of Horsea eggs raised in the the aquarium had produced a true rarity, an abnormally colored hatchling, a shiny. Unwilling to release this hatchling for fear that her unique coloration would endanger her in the wild, Nyx’s mother entrusted the aquatic pokemon to her daughter instead.

Nyx’s journey across Kalos was a long one, with many different pokemon finding their wait onto and off of her team, but her deepest connection and eternal friendship remained with Midna. Her personal connection with her fairy partner caught the attention of the Laverre City gym leader, Valerie, once Nyx had earned her badge. Encouraging her to push the bond further, Valerie offered her the parting gift of a rare Mawilite stone, though she offered little insight on how to use the stone.

Within a few short years, Nyx stood before the Elite Four of her region and found herself equal to them, but her journey ended there. Her battle against the region’s standing champion was a miss and for a time Nyx was at a loss at how to proceed. Remembering the advice of the Fairy gym leader, Nyx returned to Laverre City. There she studied the Fairy typing, hoping to glean the full potential Valerie had spoken of. But it was in the surrounding forests that Nyx found her answer instead.

During a vicious storm on evening months later,Nyx took shelter with her lone companion Midna in a long-abandoned building on Route 15 to wait out the rain. They were not the only ones to do so. In the deserted, crumbling halls a cantankerous Pangoro was not please to share his abode and immediately set upon the pair. The battle might have been easily won had Nyx and Midna not spend the day training, but weary and weak as they were the battle was trying. The pangoro’s roars were so great, the structural wall of the building itself tembled and failed. Nyx avoided the collapse, but Midna, who was cloesest, was not so lucky, trapped under the rubble as it fell. As she tried desperate to free her partner, an ancient brooch fell into her hand, a glimmering stone set in it’s center. The Pangoro didn’t care the the mawile was trapped, or that it’s trainer wanted only to free her. They were still invaders in its home and so it moved to continue it’s assault on the only potential combatant that remained, Nyx.

Just as Midna had come to the rescue of Nyx as a defenseless little girl so many years ago, the mawile could not contain her need to defend her now. The Mawilite stone and the ancient brooch stone in Nyx’s hand glowed in unison as Midna mega-evolved for the first time, throwing the crushing rubble aside as easily as she tossed the offending Pangoro. With the storm and battle passed, both deeply confused about what had just transpired, the pair returned to Laverre to consult Valerie. With a knowing smile, Valerie confirmed that the pair had achieved the bond of mega-evolution with the Key Stone found in the ancient brooch.

Though Nyx remained in Laverre City for a time after to master mega-evolution in combat, it wasn’t long before she returned to challenge the region champion again. This time, with Midna’s mega-form at her side, she was victorious and took the mantle as champion herself, where she remained for a further 2 years.
This listing will be updated with new pokemon as they are added to the team.

Pokémon: Mawile (Mega capabilities)
Nickname: Midna
Gender: Female
Appearance: An average sized considering her age, Mawile wears her bangs back, held together with a small, woven red string, removed only during battle. As a Mawile's bangs act as a counter balance for dexterity, training with them restrained has greatly improved her balance and agility when they are released.
Personality: Midna is extremely protective of her trainer, having been with her from the age of 8. She is undaunted by her small stature, continuing to assume the guardian role for all of her trainer's new pokemon, even when those pokemon evolutionary size far outstrip her own. Quiet and reserved, Midna is often the level head in any emergency.
History: See Nyx's Backstory

Pokémon: Togekiss
Nickname: Nimbus
Gender: Male
Appearance: Slightly larger in size than the average Togekiss, with a height of 5'4"
Personality: Nimbus is a free-spirit; carefree and wild. While he obeys Nyx battle commands without question, outside of the fight, he does as he pleases. He is a bit pretentious, considering his primarily supporting role for his team has left him with few losses to his name specifically.
History: Togekiss was an unusual capture, as none of his species had been previously reported on Route 12. She guessed that he was another trainer's released pokemon considering his initial animosity toward Nyx and her capture of him.

Pokémon: Ninetales (Alolan Form)
Nickname: Gliss
Gender: Female
Appearance: Slightly smaller than the average Ninetales
Personality: Gliss is carefree and fun-loving, though a bit conceited and spoiled in terms of her appearance. She enjoys waving her many tails and strutting a pose for any male pokemon that might succumb to her charms.
History: Gliss is thus far the only pokemon Nyx set out intentionally to catch. Hearing traveler's rumors of the fiery Ninetale's icy cousin, Nyx set out for Alola a couple years after her championship status. On the snowy peaks of Mt. Lanakila, Nyx found her quarry; a icy little Vulpix which she trained and evolved.

Pokémon: Tyrantrum
Nickname: Abraxas
Gender: Male
Appearance: Standing at a massive 9'8", Abraxas is well on his way to being one of the largest Tyrantrum's on record. Though his weight remains about average as his build is more lanky than his species usual bulk.
Personality: Despite his age, Abraxas has maintained his youthful spirit, vitality and a certain naiveté...not necessarily a good thing for such a massive pokemon. With innate curiousity, he has a tendency to elope and his easily distracted mind hardly gives a minutes thought to the small pokemon that might be hurt underfoot. Despite this, he is extrememely loyal to Nyx given their long history together and listens diligently to all of her commands...or at least he tries to. Butterflies can be so distracting...
History: See Nyx's History

Pokémon: Kingdra
Nickname: Coral
Gender: Female
Appearance: Coral is of the very rarity 'Shiny' mutation, so her scales are a soft pink rather than blue.
Personality: Coral is a creature of solitude. Though not obnoxiously unsocial, she does tend to remove herself from groups whenever possible, preferring to observe from afar. Though this may simply be because she is the only water-bound creature on Nyx's team.
History: See Nyx's History

Pokémon: Lucario
Nickname: Saizo
Gender: Male
Appearance: Height, weight, and colors are the same as any Lucario, but Saizo wears uncharacteristic crimson scarf around his neck.
Personality: Saizo is reticent but a keen observer and adamant in his training. Though an absolute asset in battle, Saizo isn't exactly a conversationalist. Nyx has rarely heard a sound from him during their years together, as he prefers to communicate non-verbally.
History: Saizo was captured as a Riolu on route 22.

Perfect! So we have everyone in and so far we have three people who know what they want their Elite four team to be.
Kaleb: Fire
Nyx: Fairy
Alexis: Dark
Finion:???

I'll choose after Finion does just in case I end up choosing something he wants. So Finion chose what type you want your team to be and I'll work on the starter! I'll put a link here to the RP thread once I post it.
 
Haha; Fairy, Fighting, Fire. All we're missing is Flying to have a full F Type Elite Foursome, plus Alexis's Dark. :D

I got Stellar's approval for Mega so I'm all set. Can't wait for the fun to begin!
 
Hey, Shark, I'm trying to plan a bit in battle strategies and such to firm up a team focus. Are we sticking to 4 moves per pokemon as in the games or...?
 
Whoa, sorry guys. I didn't get any notifications for any of the replies to the rp. :/ That's aggravating... I would have had ample time to reply today had I seen it. I'll try and get something quick down now before bed
