It's been five years since they lost. Since they failed.

Some people still shake their heads when they think back to what times were like before Cipher took over everything. Phenac City was still a beautiful place to live, an oasis in the desert. Now it's just a place where Citizens run to when they have nowhere else to go. But no one is safe from Cipher anymore. Pyrite town used to be a town of scoundrels and thugs. Now it's simply a place where people go when they finally decide to give in and join Cipher to become one of the faceless thugs that oppress Orre. The Under has become one of the few places that's relatively safe. The only way to get in to the Under is to come in by elevator and those are guarded around the clock by thugs hired to keep both Cipher and Resistance members out.

But Cipher has goals that exist far beyond Orre. They won't stop until the World is theirs.

The Resistance was founded a year after Cipher managed to take control. Made up of former Team Snagem members who were deemed "expendable" after they served their purpose and trainers who lost valued Pokemon to Cipher's snag machines. The Resistance has fought against Cipher for years without making much headway with one exception: The capture of a portable Snag Machine. With that and the development of devices known as "Aurora Readers" by a brilliant resistance scientist by the name of "Krane" the Resistance has the means of identifying and capturing Shadow Pokemon.

But it's still not enough.

Nearly everyone in the Orre Region now has a grudge against Cipher for one reason or another. You can play the role of a wandering trainer, a member of the resistance or even a Cipher turncoat, anything as long as you fight against Cipher.

Rules:
For this Rp, we're going to be keeping to the first three Pokemon generations.
No more than four characters
Grand total of six Pokemon in your party at one time. It's most likely not a wise idea to put them in the PC since Cipher could easily steal them away but if you want to leave them with a trustworthy NPC feel free to.
No super overpowered Pokemon at the beginning of the Rp.
No killing off other player's characters without permission.
Please let me know if you want to leave the Rp so adjustments can be made.
Have Fun!

Name: Jason Pollux

Appearance: A wholly unimpressive and underwhelming young man (about 21) of average weight and build with doe-eyes and short, dark curly brown hair. The most iconic thing about his appearance is his preference for argyle sweaters and his beloved grey flatcap.

Starter Pokemon:

Girafarig♂ Lv. 10, nickname Castor
Stantler♂ Lv. 10, nickname Agenor

Equipment: Aura Reader

Personality: Exactly the opposite of the type of guy you'd expect to survive in a place like this, and honestly he'd rather be anywhere else. Although he's had Pokemon as pets his whole life he's always been a bit of a coward and homebody, only stepping out into the world because he had no other choice. The circumstances have done little to make him stronger, in fact he's become more meek as a result. At his best he'd be laid back and funloving, but lately that's not really an option.

History: Used to live in Phenac City, growing up with his best friend Darwin. They received Pokemon for their 7th birthdays, Jason a Girafarig and Darwin a Stantler. They never became trainers though and their lives where mostly uneventful and peaceful until Orre was taken over by Cipher. Darwin was killed trying to prevent his Pokemon from being snagged, leaving Jason to care for it. He probably would have ran and hid, but a chance encounter with the flamboyant Fleet Gyle dragged him into an adventure to assist in the counter attack, and shortly after that he received an aura reader. He's resentful of Gyle due to having just lost a life long friend, but feels like he has no choice but to follow him.

____

Name: Gyle Attwater, AKA 'Fleet Gyle'

Appearance: A tall and lean but physically fit strong-arm guy who unlike his companion definitely leaves a strong impression. He has short light blue hair with a noticable cowlick and red eyes. His ever-cheeky smile and elaborate pilot getup (complete with Go-Goggles) definitely hint at his ridiculous personality, as wearing a blue scarf in the desert would be completely counter-intuitive for anyone else.

Starter Pokemon:

Pidgeotto♀ Lv. 30, nickname Aglaia
Sandshrew♂ Lv. 16, nickname Buster

Equipment: Go-Goggles

Personality: Outrageous. He thinks of himself as a personal hero to the people of Orre, although he's no more capable of being so then anyone else. He also doesn't seem to recognize or feel regret over some of the questionable choices he's made in the past, and still seems to think that everything will work out in his favor if he keeps on working toward his goals. He's outgoing and overly trusting, often socializing with people that he maybe shouldn't be, and although he's not really stupid per say, he's definitely got a poor judge of character and very little world wisdom.

History: Traveled the world as a trainer when he was younger, but has spent most of his life in Gateon Port (is it alright to use cities from the second game?) He had a wife and two sons back home, but he left them behind without warning after being blindly spurred into joining the resistance against Cipher, and has a shockingly apathetic attitude toward this decision, believing his apparent role as a hero more important. He dragged Jason along with him after finding the terrified and broken man on the side of the street, and the two have become reluctant companions.

Name: Janus Autumn

Appearance:

Starter Pokemon:
Ambipom - Level 27
Honchkrow - Level 26

Equipment: His hovercycle, The Visa
Three Poke-Balls and two Great-Balls, a pouch filled with berries for medical treatment, and a platinum locket.

Personality: A general wild card, often taking any work that pays. Janus isn't shy of doing dirty deeds for people, feeling confident in his abilities to get the job done by the means necessary. Though this might make him seem to lack morals, he never goes too far, not being one that intends to kill anyone unless threatened, or to work for Cipher. His cocky attitude mixed with his quick-thinking can make him annoying in and out of battle, and getting him to cooperate can be an even bigger pain. Though the Resistance has a good cause, Janus wouldn't think of working for free. He is usually one to look after himself before others, but doesn't have the heart to always leave somebody that's in danger, even if it strains him somewhat.

As a companion, Janus is good at gathering information, often having connections in most settlements that he's done some shifty work for. He's also a decent trainer, not afraid of getting into a fight just to prove a point. Though he prefers to let his Pokemon take it easy at times, therefor has become prone to planning escape routes.

History: "It's not my fault I have to make a living. Sorry, I can't go getting knee-deep into trouble for absolutely nothing but being told 'I did a good deed'."

Growing up in Pyrite Town, Janus was one always ready for trouble. When Cipher began to take over, he jumped on his hovercycle and ditched town without a second thought, not having anyone to care for that lived in the region. After leaving, he soon began his life as a mercenary for hire, working for the general Orre population in multiple ways. He has served as a guard, a thief, an information broker, and more. He has worked against Cipher multiple times, not exactly making them a fan of him. Quite the opposite, as taking him and turning him in would be considered a great gift from whoever managed to bring him in.

He has never settled in one place since leaving Pyrite, often going wherever he feels like. He even occasionally drops back by Pyrite, even though he knows the danger of the area. Though he is usually watched, Janus can, and usually does, access The Under whenever he decides to try and kickback. He isn't exactly well known, but his name has gone around somewhat, letting people know that there was either an asset, or a small amount of trouble out there that wasn't Cipher. Some people might figure The Resistance could really use a person like him... But most would brush off the idea, as he'd expect payment instead of just being satisfied with assisting against Cipher.
Name: Rose Hibiki

Appearance:

Starter Pokemon:
Tyrogue - Level 25 (Hasn't evolved due to an Everstone.)
Mankey - Level 23

Equipment: A Macho Brace (Held by Tyrogue), a Black Belt (Held by Mankey), two great-balls, and a pink sash.

Personality: Hibiki is an energetic young woman that is searching for her lost mentor. She generally tries to keep a positive attitude, though she can be easily irritated by just using the wrong choice of words. She has an appreciation for nature and the small gifts of life, not feeling burdened by harsh living conditions. One thing she certainly doesn't do is get pushed around, especially by men. She has an honest belief of female superiority, and shows it when a man gets out-of-line with her. This makes it mildly difficult to be friends with people of the opposite gender at times, though she gets along with other females just fine.

History: "Father always said; 'A beautiful girl like yourself has to have some form of protection'! Hehe."

Being left in front of a Pokemon Center in Phenac City one faithful night as an infant, an old, traveling man discovered her as he came into town to rest for the evening. He felt sorry for the child, and soon took the infant under his wing, fully aware of the responsibility of caring for a child so young. He gave the young girl a name, deciding on Rose, and granted her his surname. Though over the years she seemed to refer to herself by her surname instead of her actual name. He soon settled down in a secluded area of Agate Forest after finding her, raising the girl as his own daughter. Over the years she began growing in an adorable young girl, and began training in the way of martial-arts. Aside from occasional trips out of the forest or to Agate Village, she mostly practiced in her spare time.

She ended up being sparring partners with a few of his Pokemon, a Tyrogue and Mankey mostly. At the age of 12 she was gifted both Pokemon to train with and become strong. Whenever they took trips, Hibiki would battle local trainers and usually come out as the winner. She was quite honestly happy with her life, and couldn't of asked for anything better. In the village was a boy her age, he went by the name of Sulik. The two would battle whenever she came to the village, both with Pokemon, and each-other in friendly competition.

As she became a young woman, her father was becoming rather old. It was at this time that Cipher's takeover began, and some people began to be lead down a hopeless road of helping Cipher.She had decided to go to Agate Village as her father went to Phenac City, assuring her he'd be fine. She returned from a day of fun at the village to their small home, only to find he never came back. She waited until morning, only to see he hadn't returned still. She gave it one more day, before deciding it was best to go find him and make sure he was okay.

Her trip to Phenac City left her more confused, as he hadn't seemed to have been spotted around at all, and she was one to know that the old coot stood out with the way he acted. She figured that perhaps he was just discreet, and returned home praying this wasn't an issue.

The following days proved it indeed was an issue, however. As he never came back. This has led Hibiki to try all in her power to find him over the years, with no success. She has no proof, but has lately assumed that perhaps Cipher was involved, giving her mentor had powerful Pokemon. She is currently attempting to figure out where she could confirm or deny that her assumption is true or not, but doesn't have much of an idea as to where she would start...

Kjolmar didn't grow up in Orre but has been around for the last few years. At first he didn't come to Orre. He was convinced that Cipher wouldn't stop at just Orre alone but he had a younger sister named Lily to take care of at home. They were orphans and despite the locals doing their best to raise the two of them, Lily was just too young. When Lily became old enough to get a starter pokémon, Kjolmar decided it was time for him to travel to Orre and join the Resistance.



☞ Roselia, lvl 16, stays outside his pokéball
☞ Abra, lvl 28

Kjolmar speaks english but has a french accent.
He carries a backpack with him with some pokéballs, a pokémon egg and a snag machine inside.

Posted.

Felt too convenient to have Janus show up and be directly with you guys, so I put him inside to witness whatever plan Velis has that might make him join up later due to the sheer awesomeness or suicidal factor involved. Plus he can loot peons along the way, he loves a job that pays for itself...

I'll probably start off Hibiki in Phenac during my next post.

I changed my team because
- it doesn't change anything already written
- now I won't have a gen4 pokémon coming from the egg (considering Chev asked to limit it to gen3)

Sorry if this confused anyone :)
I also edited my IC post for the same reasons.
