Welcome back to Kalos Region, ladies and gentlemen. It's been a solid five years since the whole crisis with Team Flare came and went, and the esteemed Professor Sycamore has moved on to other regions to further his research into Mega Evolution. So who, just who, would take over his research? Meet Professor Apple, a Unova-born genius who shared Sycamore's interest in Pokemon evolution. She's gathered up a group young would-be Trainers from across the Kalos Region via mail, explaining her interest in Pokemon research and how her studies mostly have her tied down in Lumiose City. Naturally, they accepted. The appointed group is to meet up at Aquacorde City, where they are to finally meet Professor Apple in person and receive their first Pokemon.

The time has finally come. A small band of young aspiring Trainers-to-be have gathered at Aquacorde Town, where Professor Apple is waiting for them.

Rules/information to keep in mind:
  • Of course, no powerplaying/godmodding.
  • Be reasonable in your decisions. I won't punish you for whatever choice you make regarding the plot. I probably will punish you if you, say, provoke a notably more powerful enemy.
  • Don't expect a lot of gore/sexual content; besides being a Pokemon rp, the age cap for player characters is 14. Swearing is alright though.
  • As the plot will be driven by your decisions, I strongly urge everyone to communicate, either via PM or in the OOC.
  • If you are a slow poster or unable to post for a while, please notify me.
  • There is something of a dibs list - that is, one a player has claimed a certain pokemon species, other players may not claim it without express permission. The idea is to reduce confusion and fighting over ‘duplicates’, particularly for plot-relevant pokemon.
  • Due to your GM controlling several rps, IC posting may be slow. OOC posting will be semi-constant. Please join if you are sure you can be reliable.
  • The rules and available information may change, but I will post the changes before editing them in, and there will be no punishment for anyone who broke a rule before it was made.

Sully

Character



Age: 14
Gender: Male

Personality

Sully had a very lonely upbringing and his personality shows it. He is quiet and doesn't open up very well with strangers often keeping himself at a distance. The few times he has let people in, he has become very protective often acting as a quiet big brother. Also as a pretty big 14 year old, he isn't afraid to stand up to bullies.

Brief Bio

In no uncertain terms his upbringing was hard. His father spent the majority of his time working long hours for minimal pay, while his mother resented Sully due to her longing for a baby girl. The resentment manifested itself as minimal conversation, forgotten meals and missed school performances to name but a few ways. It took its toll on him and he really struggled to let anyone in. Through his early school days he had no friends, not even the most socially unacceptable kids wanted to know him. He simply went to school, kept to himself, and went home every day. He was often picked on physically but would simply accept his fate before walking back home.

When he reached high school things at home didn't get any better, but school was different. While he was still quiet and distant to most, he had a growth spurt which meant he wasn't physically bullied any more. In fact, he used his new found size to stand up for those who couldn't do it themselves. He got a reputation of a friendly giant although nobody made an attempt to become his friend. That was until a few weeks after his 14th birthday.

A transfer student arrived in the school and it was up to Sully to show him around the school. It wasn't long before they became friends. The student was the daughter of a Pokemon trainer who was well respected on the tournament circuit. The girl would tell Sully of her fathers exploits and show him footage of his battles. It was these stories and videos that sparked a fire within him to become a Pokemon trainer himself. Soon the e-mail from Professor Apple arrived and now he was on his way to meet her.
Pokemon

Starter Pokemon: Axew


Personality: Axew is a very jolly Pokemon, spending the majority of his time being playful with humans and pokemon alike. He always has a smile spread across his face and is very much a hugger. He has alot of pent up energy and tends to run around alot like you would expect from a small dog.
Miscellaneous
Musical themes listed below [A fair warning that they are of the metal variety]

Character Theme: Heart of a Coward - Miscreation
Battle Theme: Crossfaith - RX Overdrive

@AtaxiaIV I'm going to hold off formal acceptance due to the limited number of slots and give others time to post their sheets, but this one looks fine to me. Will notify you if you are one of the accepted three and tell you to put your sheet in the Characters tab, alright?

@Ashevelendar
Until RBY's on, I can lend you a hand real quick? Here we go:


@AtaxiaIV
One issue we forgot to bring up; Gible's line is Pseudo-Legendary, which the CS mentioned couldn't be used as starters. You're free to capture a Gible on the journey if you end up accepted, but you might want to find an alternative for your starter? I can track down the dibs list to help you find something fitting, if you'd like.

Hello, I'm awake. @Fish of Oblivion thanks for taking care of things while I slept. Yeah, meant to mention Gible, though the rest of the sheet struck me as pretty alright.

Agreeing with the criticisms @Ashevelendar's sheet. Now, some starters I could be persuaded to change the rule for. Considering it's Torchic, however, I'd prefer not to waive the rule there. Nothing personal against Torchic, it's just definitely one of the more powerful starters. If you want a Fire-type, I could suggest Magby's line or Litwick's line.

Other Fire-type Starters are also valid alternatives, as is Fletchling if you don't mind waiting to evolve to burn things?

@RBYDark@Fish of Oblivion I edited it. How does it look now ? Changed the starter Pokemon with something that the Kalos region had been known to have. ( Honedge )
If this one is not OK I'll edit and change it to : Deino , if he is not allowed either I'll go with Gastly. Since none are starting Pokemon ( for the player ) in any Pokemon ( if I've read right ). ^_^

Thanks for the help.

@Ashevelendar
... I'm beyond sorry for this happening a second time, but Honedge is on that dibs list we mentioned (along with Gastly, coincidentally enough). Deino won't fly either because it's also a Pseudo-legendary, so I guess if there's anything else you're considering, feel free to fire them at me for approval/rejection? Besides that, sheet's significantly improved!

And just to ensure third time's the charm, here's the dibs list:

Gastly, Poliwag, Zubat, Unown, Aron, Larvitar, Sewaddle, Swablu


@MechonRaptor
Don't sweat the accidental post; speaking tentatively, Amber looks fine to me, I'll just wait on RBY for any possible in-depth commentary or approval?

@AtaxiaIV
Axew is perfectly fine, yeah; good choice, by the way, line's one of my personal favourites from Gen V!

That was what the apology was on account of; we probably should have put the list up before now, so the mixup wasn't your fault at all.

If you want, you could list anything you're considering? Just so you can make sure everything's all clear before you go through editing again, really.

Not just yet; like RBY said, we've got limited slots, so we'll give the others time to get sheets up or back out and then make a decision on things?
