(OOC - Oh yeah I forgot to mention about their uniform. All years wear a black uniform trimmed in a colour to represent their year. 6th = purple the other years you can choose whatever colour you want. The girls wear sailor suits and boys trousers and blazer.)

Yuri walked swiftly down the corridor towards the headmaster’s office on the top most floor of the Goldenrod Pokemon academy. The academy itself was a large four story building where students both studied and lived for the 6 years that the academy taught them. Yuri walked passed classrooms where lessons were being held, lessons of pokemon types, battle strategies, breeding, and general care.

Yuri flicked her pale blonde hair back over her shoulder as she continued walking. As normal she was wearing the pokemon academy uniform which for a girl consisted of a black sailor style dress which had colourised edging. The colour on Yuri’s dress was purple which indicated she was in her sixth and final year; each year was represented by a different colour on their uniform. Glinting on her uniform was also the head girl badge which flashed white and bright against her black uniform. Over her shoulder she also had her blue school bag which contained her books, paper and most important her 6 pokeballs which contained her best friends and partners. As she was in her sixth year she had been allowed to have six partners, each one she had caught at the end of each year as part of her final exam.

She was very proud of her pokemon partners; they were all of the fire type as Yuri had already decided that her pokemon life would be formed around fire types. She loved them, everything about them, their courage and grace. To Yuri there was no greater joy than being able to touch her Rapidash’s mane without being harmed, the power and beauty she found in all fire types had her enthralled. So she studied and trained with the ambition of becoming the world’s most powerful fire gym leader.

Finally she made her way up to the headmasters office and knocking on the door she was invited inside his wood panelled study while the moustached, bespectacled silver haired headmaster finished writing on the paper in front of him. Yuri walked into the middle of the room and sat down in the straight backed chair. She had been in the room a few times and none of them for misbehaviour, the last time she was here was to receive a commendation from the headmaster for her Ponyta evolving into a Rapidash. When he had finished writing the headmaster looked up and surveyed Yuri over the top of his glasses.

“Well Yuri, you’re in your final year here at pokemon academy and from what your teachers are saying you will pass from here with highest honours, maybe the highest we have seen. However there is one slight problem.”

Here he paused and again gave Yuri another x-ray look while she squirmed uncomfortably, what was the problem, had she done badly a test?

“Your teachers tell me your bond with your pokemon is excellent however I see that on every test that required a partner or group you completed it alone, and still came top of the class I might add however this means that you are lacking in any social scores. This means that you cannot graduate without these scores.” Again he paused.

“I am telling you this now so you have enough time to rectify this.” He blew a breath of air through is great walrus moustache. “You could try reviving the old battling club, that used to be very popular in my day, in fact when I used to run it we were the most popular club in the academy.” He glanced over his shoulder to the old pictures hanging on the wall, photo’s from the headmasters youth and she noted one in which a group stood before a sign that read “GPA Battle Club”.

He smiled again at Yuri who was only stopping her jaw dropping by sheer will. “Well you better get going, I look forward to seeing what you will come up with for this grade. I expect to hear good things from you Yuri.” With that he shooed her away with his hand and Yuri got up and stumbled off to her first lesson of the day in classroom 15C.

Reaching the classroom before anyone else Yuri sat down on one of the desks and just allowed herself to panic, she had to pass in social skills, possibly running some stupid club. Groaning Yuri cursed her luck, this was going to be a massive drag.

[Jazzy94]

"Come on Shellshocker, we're about to be late", called out a voice that was outside of the door belonging to classroom 15C. That voice belonged to Amber Jones, a student that hopes to become the best of the best...to beat each pokemon champion in every region. She opened the door, waiting for her pokemon to catch up. He was threatening a student that bothered Amber earlier while they were on their way to class. When the Blastoise finally caught up to her, she returned him to his pokeball then went to go take her seat that was somewhat in the middle of the classroom.

The girl had on her usual attire that showed she was in her last and final year, almost ready to start her journey. Yes these past few years have been fun and exciting to Amber. She won some battles and yes she lost some as well, but through those loses she learned where she made her mistakes. Her favorite pokemon in the entire school was Squirtle, and she happily caught him as her first pokemon. Now he is a strong Blastiose, the strongest pokemon she has as he evolved before the others did. The next to evolve was going to be her Faxure, she could tell as she trained her as well as her other pokemon.

Thinking about her previous years gotten Amber in a good and happy mood. She was glad that her parents sent her here, she had such a blast! Though the girl was going to miss the friends she made at this school, but there is a chance that she would see them again after graduation.

Max had just gotten out of the principle's office about getting into trouble again with another student and his pokemon. It wasn't his fault, that guy had started with him first and he wasn't going to back down from a challenge. Especially if he wants to become an Elite Four member. Walking with him was his one of his pokemon, his Monferno in which he sees as one of his trustworthy pokemon.

The boy was wearing his usual school attire, trousers with a black blazer on that had blue trimming to show that he's in his fourth year of the school. He sighed as he knew that if he gets into trouble one more time like that, then he is kicked out of the academy and they would probably take his pokemon away. "I'll try not to get into trouble again Monferno. I don't want to get kicked out and never see you or the others again." His fire type friend shook his head and placed a hand on his shoulder, to try to get him to cheer up. "Come on, we going to be late again", he said as he was walking towards classroom 10D.

[Elorwin]

Yuri barely noticed as the rest of the class filed in, she was too preoccupied thinking about the possibility of failing her school career due to not working with other people! It wasn’t fair, she didn’t need anyone else, she worked best alone and this wasn’t just her opinion, she had consistently been top of her year since she had joined the school. Yuri was sat at the back of the classroom, her eyes blindly watching the students file in. To some people sitting at the back might be seen as wanting to avoid learning but for Yuri it was about maintaining order in her classes. Looking out the window Yuri ignored the rest of the class as normal as they came trooping in. As the teacher started talking Yuri was just looking at her as she proceeded to draw on the chalkboard, none of what she was saying was making the slightest impact in Yuri’s brain.

Making notes in her journal she tried to figure a way around what the headmaster had said to her, was there a way to get those scores without having to ‘get’ them. However by half way through the lesson she was forced to admit that there was no way around this, she would have to bite the bullet. And for the time being the idea of a battle club wasn’t such a bad idea, at least it was something she was good at. She assumed that to get her score for social achievement the club would have to achieve something, maybe compete against another school or gym?

The bell rang, its call echoing throughout the school to signal the end of classes. Yuri looked up from her note pad where she had been making notes about battle club. She had not taken in a single word and found for once she didn’t care, she was top of the class anyway, she thought with scorn. Quickly packing up her things Yuri then realised she had the afternoon free, so she had time to herself until dinner, which was still a good 3 hours away. Flinging her bag over her shoulder Yuri stalked off.

Unsure of what to do but knowing she wanted to be alone Yuri stalked outside walking across the school grounds towards the banks of a pond which was used for lessons about water pokemon. There with its leaves dipping into the still water was a large weeping willow tree, its leaves forming a protective and tent like canopy. It was into its shade that Yuri stepped, finding the spot she liked to occupy at the base of the roots and snuggling downing it. The air was cold, the seasons were starting to change and as Yuri looked at the leaves she could already see their colour starting to shift.

Reaching into her bag Yuri pulled out a few pokeballs and held them in her hand for a moment before throwing them out in front of her. The light cleared away to reveal a large Growlithe, a sleek Vulpix and a muscular Quillarva. As soon as she was out of her pokeball Vulpix gave a excited cry, turned, saw Yuri and instantly jumped up into her arms and scampered up to sit around her neck. Growlithe stood protectively next to her, scanning the surroundings and only once he has satisfied himself that there was no threat did he come and sit with his paws in her lap. All the while Quillarva had snuggled his head under her arm and was attempting to keep her warm with his fire.

Yuri watched as the students walked by where she sat and fear flooded through her at the thought of what she had to do. However Pupstar sensed her fear and tension and was instantly on his feet, his eyes finding the only thing that was out of place, a fellow 6th year, Amber, who was currently walking past where she was sitting. Before Yuri could even react Pupstar was up and barking loudly at Amber, who quite understandably was looking confused.

“Pupstar down!” Yuri called to him. The Growlithe quietened immediately but remained where he was. Getting up Yuri walked over to Growlithe and looked sternly at him. “Heel.” She said firmly and retreated behind her legs next to Quillarva while Vulpix was still curled around her neck. Looking over from Growlithe to Amber Yuri bowed slightly in apology.

“Sorry about that, you know Growlithe’s they can get a bit overwrought. I hope he didn’t hurt you?”
