Private/Closed The RP Where Pokemon and Their Trainers Swap Bodies

[Chrocey]

Hello all!

As the title suggests, I'm looking to do an RP where pokemon and their trainers end up swapping bodies.

This will begin as a small group of trainers are summoned to a laboratory by a quirky professor who detailed to them that he has invented a device that lets you communicate with your pokemon directly, so that you could hear what they are saying with perfect clarity.

The device malfunctions and the trainers have their bodies swapped with the pokemon they'd selected to communicate with.

Now the pokemon must live life in the shoes of their trainers until the machine is fixed, and the trainers will be forced to learn the struggles of being a pokemon.

Since you are swapping bodies with your pokemon, you will not know how to do any real moves besides bashing and biting. Depending on how everything goes, it may be interesting to have the trainers learn how to perform the same attacks as their pokemon.

Please let me know if you're at all interested or if you have questions! Based on who wants to participate, I’ll adjust the size of the RP accordingly. However, I would like to get at least three people.

If you are interested, please fill out the below form:

Interesting! I'd definitely love to see where this goes.

Name: Regina Moteau
Nickname: Gianna
Age: 19
Sex: Female
Appearance: With a wiry frame, Gianna stands at about 5'4'', with sandy brown skin, rose-tinted cheeks, and gentle brown eyes, her dark blonde hair stops midway down her back.
Personality: Bubbly, and a bit of a klutz, but simultaneously down-to-earth and with a profound interest in science.
Pokemon you choose to enter the machine with you: Slurpuff
Short Bio: Gianna is a Johto-borne high school graduate who currently resides in Kalos. Her passions for science, particularly psychology and language, meet no bounds. While fairly average and ditsy in the eyes of some, she hardly wastes a glance at such assumptions, and rather strives to better herself and her relations with her Pokemon with the utmost of confidence.

Pokemon: Sylvia
Species: Slurpuff
Nickname: Big creampuff (Used endearingly)
Sex: Female
Special markings: None
Short Bio: *EDIT* Silly me, I completely forgot the bio: Hatched from an egg from a school study vacation in Kalos when Gianna was eighteen, Sylvia is a beloved memento of the trip, and the two have grown rather close despite their short time together.

Well, this looks fun. I'll give it a try:

Name: Laden Shaw
Nickname: Lade
Age: 14
Sex: Male
Appearance:
The Pokemon you Choose to Bring in the Machine with you: Nidoran
Short Bio: Lade was a born Kanto-Native. He has never left Kanto before until now (?), though he loves adventure, and even went on his own mini-adventure when he was young and captured all of the Pokemon in Route 1, near his hometown. Not even two years after that he went on a real adventure, beating all of the Pokemon League with his Pokemon. Later on he bred his main Pokemon, and then later on he hatched the resulting egg, and got his Quill.

Pokemon-
Species: Nidoran
Nickname: Quill
Sex: Male
Special Markings: None
Short Bio: Quill was Laden's first Pokemon's child. Even though Quill's father was Laden's first Pokemon, there was just a greater bond between Quill and Laden so evidently Quill became Laden's best friend, and that's why Laden chose Quill for this experiment.

Yay! I'm so glad you guys are interested nwn I'll try to get a starter going as soon as possible

Name: Diana Roxwell
Nickname: Ana
Age: 17
Sex: Female
Appearance: She sports a dark purple top and skirt, with a light purple hip skirt.
Personality: Diana behaves very calmly in most situations, and tends to move about life very smoothly but with purpose. She is easily irritated at an abundance of noise.
Pokemon you choose to enter the machine with you: Arbok
Short Bio: Diana grew up in the Hoenn region with both parents and six siblings living in one house. Because of all the noise, she prefers everything that is quiet. The fluid movements of belly dancing also appealed to her, as a friend of the family taught her everything she needed to know about it. Because of this she practices dancing with her pokemon regularly, as to her and her pokemon it is the ultimate form of bonding.

Pokemon
Species: Arbok
Nickname: Charlene
Sex: Female
Special markings: None
Short Bio: Charlene was given to Diana when it was just an Ekans by a trainer visiting from the Kanto region. He thought the snake was better off with her after she had managed to charm it with her dancing.

Alrighty, I posted the starter. Feel free to post your guys' replies here :3 can't wait to try this out!

 

[Il Fantasma]

This sounds super cool! Hope I can still join! >w<

Name: Larissa Pianka
Nickname: Lari (even though she's not too fond of it)
Age: 13
Sex: female
Appearance: amber red eyes, red-brown hair up in a side braid with side bangs hanging over forehead, wears mint green flare skater dress and white sneaker flats, speaks in a Russian accent
Personality: dainty, cleanly, fairly reserved, emotional, trusting
Pokemon you choose to enter the machine with you: Minccino
Short Bio: Larissa is the last born in a family of four children. She's always treated like a baby, and she hates it. Hoping to get away from the house and finally be treated like an adult, Larissa was very pleased to hear about the professor wanting her to help with an experiment.

Pokemon
Species: Minccino
Nickname: Renai
Sex: female
Special markings: She wears a flat-brimmed snap-back. (I know this technically isn't a marking, but there wasn't another place to put this.)
Short Bio: Renai is a loyal partner Pokemon. Even though she's not very happy about Larissa's sort-of germaphobia, she stays with her and endures through the multiple baths she receives every time she gets herself dirty.

 

[Zen the Fen]

Alright! Let's get it on!! WOO!

Name: Rusty Whitaker
Nickname: Zen
Age: 16
Sex: Male
Appearance: Zen has short, light brown hair, and maroon eyes. He sports a white tee with the distinct markings of a Litwick on it, with the white parts of the Pokemon blending in with the shirt (I'm sure you've seen stuff like that before), and jeans.
Personality: Zen is a funny character. He is always "derping" things up, but he still tries his best. He is also very kind, and caring, and knows how to treat a Pokemon with respect.
Pokemon you choose to enter the machine with you: Riolu
Short Bio: Rusty Whitaker used to be a dull kid...until the incident occurred. He was invited by a friend to come watch a battle. Of course, he accepted. Once the battle had started, Rusty wasn't paying attention to his surroundings (he was doing something else briefly), when he was tackled by a confused Tauros using Zen Headbutt. He was fine afterwards, but he hasn't been the same since. He started acting all wild, and funny. He normally didn't try to be, but what he usually did would match up with the scenario at hand. They called him Zen from then on.

Pokemon: Ryu
Species: Riolu
Nickname: N/A
Sex: Male
Special markings: Small spiral mark on his right arm (see below)

Short Bio: Just like every other Pokemon out there, Ryu was a wild Pokemon before he met his trainer, but this was slightly different. Ryu had been pummeled by a flock of Spearow. He was unsure if he would make it out alive, until a loud roar came from behind him. It turned out to be a motorcycle. Once it arrived, the flock of Spearow fled the scene. The man on the motorcycle was none other than Zen. When he saw the wounded Riolu lying on the ground, he decided to take it in for healing at the nearest Pokemon Center. Once that was finished, the Nurse Joy working there gave him back the Riolu, thinking it was his. Ryu hugged Zen to show him how thankful he was that he saved him. He then picked up one of Zen's Pokeballs that he had on him, and handed it to Zen, asking him if he would take Ryu along with him, and you can tell what happened from there. They have been best buddies ever since.

I'll hold off plot progression until Laden catches up to the scene :3

 

[Zen the Fen]

Sounds fair.
