[OOC] Pokémon: The Alola Chronicles [Always Open!]

[Arty Fox]

I'll try and get a CS up in the next day or so :)

[Sunbather]

Alrighty, rewrote it all. Probably a little shorter than before, but being concise is a good thing, innit? I originally wanted to make an anspiring journalist, but since we already have a lovely photographer, I figured I'd go in a different direction. What would a Pokemon adventure be, without the edgy rival type of character, amirite? If anything's not suiting your vision, just give me a shout, I'll change it.

My Hider

Name:
Soley Gibson

Age:
17

Appearance:
Soley is a lanky girl, with long legs, and a lean build. As a Rogue member, many physically straining activities built wiry muscles. She often carries a sceptical, sometimes even mean expression on her face, which highlight her otherwise soft facial features. She has violet shoulder-length hair, which she often strokes back, as it tends to cover her right eye often. Her day-to-day attire consists of a maroon-colored leather jacket, a plain black tank top, black skinny jeans, and oversized boots, creating her scrappy appearance, which is common in Orre, but especially in Pyritus and the Under.

Personality/Motivation:
Soley is driven by her yearning to find something exciting, as well as her extremely competitive nature. Her adventure's primary goal is to battle in the Pokemon League one day, which was a dream of hers since her friend's father told her the tales of his journey in Johto, and the cause of much dismay, seeing as Orre has no Pokemon League.

She has a rough shell, and carries herself in an independent way. She grew up with many rowdies around, and has adapted to the difficult life in the Orre region, which has given her a sarcastic, sometimes even pessimistic attitude, though she far from unsocial. Instead, she's cautious, and perhaps snarky. She likes to encounter new and exciting things, and has developed a taste for showing off tricks and the like for spectators. She knows plenty of card tricks--some of which are possible only because of Ophelia--as well as skateboard tricks, something the Riders and Street Performers have taught her.

Soley's dream is to become a successful and respected Pokemon trainer one day, and to become a pilot and soar through the sky all by herself, just like that Pidgey back in the Under.

History:
Soley was born in the Orre region, deep down in the Under. Growing up, Soley often felt caged, as the subterranean city, with it's dirty houses and dusty shops, was almost entirely deprived of light and nature. Like most of Orre's citizen, Soley was cautious of Pokemon, due to the abuse of Shadow Pokemon that had shook the region up years before, leaving her feeling lonely a lot of times. To make friends, Soley joined a local group of trainers, encompasing Rogues, Chasers, and Street Performers--Common trainers in the crime-ridden Orre region. Though her parents disapproved, as most individuals with such a trainer class got into trouble with the Pyritus Police quite often, she soon made friends, and learned many helpful tricks from the St. Performers. One of the members of the group was a boy named Cor, whose father was a pilot, and he'd often tell her stories from his younger years. Though Soley loved those tales, they also fueled her yearning for freedom and adventure.

Soley's fear of Pokemon had slowly begun to dwindle, as her fellow Street Performers all had Pokemon Partners. It fully disappeared, as one day, a Pidgey flew through one of the old lift shafts connecting Under and Pyritus. Soley watched the flying-type soar over Under's houses effortlessly, and, in her amazement, forgot her fear of Pokemon completely. Subsequently , she decided that she had to leave the city, and begin her own quest for freedom and fame in the Pokemon League--Just as Cor's father had told her about. A few months after her 16th birthday, she was given a Shuppet by her father, who himself had trained a Banette since his early childhood. Soley named her new partner Ophelia, and soon ventured upwards to Pyritus, and, for the first time in her life, after saying her goodbyes, left the surface city behind her entirely. After traveling through the harsh arid lands of the Orre region, Soley arrived at an airport, where she boarded the cheapest flight, and ended up in Mistralton City.

Much to her delight, she soon found out about Skyla, the local gym leader, who also happened to be a famous pilot. Though Soley could barely wait to meet and challenge her, Ophelia seemed to have other plans, and the ghost-type regularly requested her trainer to follow her. Eventually, she managed to nudge Soley towards the Celestial Tower. The Shuppet seemed quite fond of the burial-ground, while Soley found herself at awe with the strange Pokemon living here. The pair came across a tan woman, with flowers in her head, who introduced herself as Phoebe, and complimented Soley for her choice of partner, as she, too, was a ghost-type trainer. The Elite Four member and Soley soon conversed, and after the girl had explained her ambitions, Phoebe told her off the Alola region, where beginner trainers go through trials of various difficulty. The variety of these trials seemed a perfect fit, and so Phoebe recommended Soley to travel further, and begin her own island challenge. She finished her thoughts with introducing herself as an Elite Four member, something that impressed and excited Soley so much, that she immediately jumped on the idea.

Back in Mistralton City, Soley inquired about opportunities to make money, so that she could afford her trip to Alola. Luckily, the Mistralton Airport had an opening. Though it wasn't exactly piloting a plane, the girl jumped at the chance. After a few months, Soley had not only gotten a taste of the airport life, she also had earned enough money to pay for her travels, as well as a bit of a finanical cushion. As soon as the flight plans allowed it, Soley boarded yet another plane, and eventually stepped foot onto a naval tourist spot, from where she rode a Ride Sharpedo, and finally arrived on Melemele Island--The place where she was supposed to find Alola's famous Professor Kukui.

Current Team:

Ophelia, the Shuppet
Insomnia
- Shadow Sneak
- Will-O-Wisp
- Disable
- Shadow Ball

Ophelia is highly protective of Soley, but also challenging the unexperienced trainer regularly. She is mischievous, but ultimately kind-hearted, and has shown to be very stubborn.

He can be kind and joyful, but also teasing and immature. He would be that friend that loves to get into trouble the right way and enjoy the adventure, and like any cat despite his appearance, he is a good companion.

Jeremy wants to become a Professor just like his parents. He loves battles and Pokemon League system and would love to help give research to help improve it. He wants to, like many professors and those aspiring to be one, learn everything there is to learn about the world they live in. He dreams to not only become a professor but a gym leader one day, he wants to be the first Pokemon Professor Gym Leader.

History:
Jeremy was born at a hospital in Lumiose City, in the Kalos Region. But he was raised on the road, with his parents. They are Pokemon researchers who studies vary all the time, and their travels take them all over the main land regions. His love of Pokemon grew from his travels and experiences and this drove him to want to train and do research. Recently his family was in the Kanto Region studying when they got he call from Professor Kukui to come and help in Aloha. It would be Jeremy's first time there and his parents fourth or fifth. He got Goomy as a gift for his 14th birthday and the two have become best friends since.

Whenever Jeremy gets to riled up Goomy will swallow his head and try to blind Jeremy to get him to calm down. But sometimes he will try to get in on the fun.

How's everyone going on their CS? Planning to start in a few days depending on how many people post their CS.

[WriterRaven]

Mine is ready, but I'm holding off on posting it until one or both of my friends from the interest check have theirs prepared.

[EWillden]

Well I said I was working on a sheet and there it is. So we can start with multiple pokemon? If so I wanted my Gastly too from the last rp..lol

[AbysmalDemon]

@WriterRaven Ok ^^

[@EWilden] No, but you can obtain him after the start/"tutorial" if the RP. Good to have you back <3

[EWillden]

@AbysmalDemon Good to be back, was hoping for another pokemon rp that wasn't too demanding. Although I do work I can manage to post at least once a day. In fact... going to post my work schedule right here so everyone knows when to expect me. I can work on posts while at work too but it will take longer.

Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays I work 12pm to 8pm.
Wednesdays I just work from 1pm to 8pm
Sundays and Mondays I work overnights 10pm to 6am.

I can post before or after those times. Remember I can post in between them times too but it will take longer. Work comes first after all during those hours.

[EWillden]

As you can tell my free shiny.... well is going to be my starter. Houndour will be my shiny. So from here on out I got to earn my shiny the ways you've listed.

[AbysmalDemon]

I tried to make it so that's it's possible, but not too likely and random.org does that pretty well xD
