Hey guys! Basically, I am creating a roleplay called "The Grand Festival!", which is, if you have basic knowledge on Pokemon, is the largest and most extravagant final Pokemon Contest of the year, where any Coordinator that has 5 Ribbons from normal Contests in their arsenal, may enter. The winner of this large festival will receive the Ribbon Cup and the title of "Top Coordinator" for their superior performance. As a Contest Enthusiast (as I like to call it), they are my favorite part of the anime and games, and I figured this could be a great site-hosted competition, but since thats unlikely, I am creating an RP for it. Feel free to join, but since this will be as realistic and enjoyable as possible, here are the requirements.
| Please read before joining |
______________________________________________________________
Requirements:
- Must have (only) 4 Pokemon entered in the Festival
- You must have decent roleplay experience (i.e, able to write more than a couple lines)
______________________________________________________________
Rules:
- Only 1 Pokemon can be used for Round 1 of the appeals, and then 2 paired Pokemon can perform for the Second Appeal Rounds (You can reuse the first one you used), and then the other 2 will have to be used to battle.
- Pokemon will be a first-come-first-serve process, no two participants can have the same Pokemon. ( However different evolutions of the same Pokemon is allowed )
- NO LEGENDARY OR MEGA-EVOLVING POKEMON
- Please do not post one liners. If it is your turn to perform, your posts have to at least be a paragraph. Express your creativity, paint a picture in the reader's minds for better scores from the judges.
- Each performer can have at most 4 combinations to appeal to the crowd/judges. This is only a rule to prevent posts that contain an endless amount of combinations, dragging on the performance.
- There will be no knock-outs in Contest Battles. An in-RP timer will be set (5 minutes) and the two Coordinators will battle it out then. It is only over when the timer is out. But fear not, you will have much more than only 5 minutes to battle in real life time
- In the battles, you cannot constantly dodge or counter every attack. Although dodging and countering is definitely something you want your Pokemon to do, you have to get hit eventually, of course. Just do your best to come back from those attacks or make them work in your favor. Not every attack of yours can hit either. Avoid posting that your attack "hit and was super effective" in the RP. Because, as all Contests go, it is not about your attack hitting, but how it looks and shows off your Pokemon's grace, beauty, intelligence, strength, etc.
- PLEASE DO NOT post your character giving a performance directly after someone has already given a performance. Please wait until you see a post from me giving out that person's points and results. (Since me and the judges need a little bit to gather and tally up points)
- Please be active. Life happens, trust me I know. But don't disappear for days at a time when it supposed to be your turn - we have to be fair to the others
______________________________________________________________
Message:
In the Grand Festival, any amount of Coordinators can participate in the appeal rounds, but depending on the amount of Roleplayers, only a maximum of 8 will advance into the battle rounds and finals. If I need to step in as an NPC I will!
Please do not worry about me being bias to anyone, as I am only 1 of the 4 judges I will be asking to help run this RP. I will not be showing favoritism to anyone participating in this RP, as the other judges and I will solely be judging by your creativity, uniqueness, originality, and writing skill.
Please post your character sheets below!
Format:
Name:
Age:
Gender:
Appearance:
Four Pokemon:
(Optional) Contest Specialization: (Toughness, Beautiful moves, Cuteness, etc.)

Sorry that this was so long! I hope that if you join you enjoy the roleplay and give it your all! Please no sore losers or boastful winners. Any amount of people may join, even if this is your first time trying out a Contest RP, so please do! Have Fun! ♥
