All characters must be written/played as at least 21 years old (if not established as already older).
I like to ret-con the setting so characters must be 18 years old before they can become a Pokémon trainer, Coordinator or whatever.
Good day, one and all. I hope you're well and finding those RPs you crave!
What am I looking for, you (hopefully) ask? Well, some largely light and highspirited lines in the Pokémon universe which maintain the anime's playful, noblebright vibe. Highspirited adventure and slice-of-life stuff, copious tongue-in-cheek humor, romantic fluff, intense battles (Pokémon being merely KO'd rather than maimed/killed), hardedged "Fuck you!" positivity, quiet moments of character growth, people being capable of warmth, compassion and empathy (even if oddly/poorly displayed), and—above all else—a general sense of fun (the characters openly enjoying each other's company and the situations they find themselves in). That sort of thing. :)
So I do request that partners...
◓ Have a fairly up-to-date familiarity with the Pokémon universe!
◓ Be willing to write semi-descriptive, over-the-top Pokémon battles and put creative spins on attacks a la the anime!
◓ Ignore the games' "Four Moves of Doom" limit in favor of a Pokémon being able to use (and potentially learn) many of their given moves!
⭐ SOME POTENTIAL IDEAS ⭐
I list three general ideas below (which are very much open to alteration), but am open to others.
⭐ IDEA 1 | THE CLASSIC POKEMON JOURNEY ⭐
(I greatly prefer an in media res approach, where our characters are relatively experienced rather than just starting out.)
(I greatly prefer an in media res approach, where our characters are relatively experienced rather than just starting out.)
I'd be interested in a rom-com deal with plenty of fluffy funtimes between two traveling trainers/Coordinators/Frontier Brains/Elite Four members/whatever crushing on each other, with plenty of lighthearted—and lightheartedly smutty—slice-of-life moments (a Pokémon capture, a tournament or festival battle encounter Meet Cute, those sorts of things). Slice-of-life scenes exploring the day-to-day deal of our characters' careers (training, being in the mood to celebrate after an especially intense/noteworthy victory, one needing reassurance after a narrow or devastating loss, etc.) would also be enjoyable.
⭐ IDEA 2 | CHILDHOOD RIVALS REUNITING AS ADULTS ⭐
It can be during an annual meet n' greet for newly-minted Elite Four members/Top Coordinators/Frontier Brains, returning as newly minted professors at some elite Pokémon academy, that kind of thing.For a more female-led relationship vibe, I'd be down for something between a female of high position/authority (Champion, Frontier Brain, Elite Four member, Pokémon Prof, Top Coordinator, etc.) and her husband, trying to have a romance while being in the spotlight.
⭐ IDEA 3 | A PAIR OF RISING STARS ⭐
A line between a pair of rising stars (trainers, Coordinators, newly minted Gym Leaders, professors at an elite Pokémon academy or whatever) who've established themselves as two of their generation's most talented figures. I'd especially love if they had sharply different approaches to both life and their fields, one being a fiery force majure on the battlefield, while the other's the calm eye in the raging storm. I'm looking for our players being rivals and foils for one another, their prodigious skills eclipsed only by the captivating nature of how different they are, having an intense yet still oddly respectful rivalry. A constant shifting tide of counterplays where they trade wins regularly, and their cordial interactions in public always carried an undercurrent of competition that wouldn't fail to draw the media's attention. Of course, such constant shifting power plays would (ideally) extend to more romantic matters as well. Something lighthearted, humorous and shamelessly smutty (with a romantic side) like that. ^^'' Think a vibe like this pic. :p
⭐ CHARACTERS ⭐
So, I've nattered on enough. :P If this narrow interest draws your attention, please send me a PM that has all of the following (please don't reply on this thread):
▷ What from this ad specifically interests you
