Wow...I sorta hope this RP isn't that realistic. Then it's like 'Why even be a Pokémon Trainer if it's going to cause this much shit', y'know? Haha. But the Team Rocket members are cool in that one.

}Name: Marina Del Tierra
Age: Fifteen. (15)
Personality: Overprotective over her friends and loved ones, Marina tends to overreact whenever she notices danger or trouble approaching. That being said, she is extremely cautious and wary of everything around her, and due to this, will cause herself to look suspicious and cause more trouble. This cyclic loop is the reason why she tries to avoid as much contact with other people as possible, preferring solitude over unity, and while this doesn't essentially mean she wouldn't journey with others, it does take time for her to warm up to other people. However, when she does become close to others, they tend to find a very sweet and strong friend to have. Beyond this confusion, people can feel as if they can truly rely on Marina to protect them.
Appearance: Marina stands at 5'5" with a slim, dainty figure, peachy skin and a smooth complexion. She has short blonde hair that reaches her collar bone, yet most of it is tucked beneath her blue sailor's cap. Her face has a slight rugged look, softened by her large emerald eyes. She wears a collared sleeveless white dress with blue stripes on the sides, the collar tied with a little green bow tie, as well as blue knee high boots with three straps on the outer sides of each. She always carries her green knapsack with her.
History: Marina was born on a pirate ship, her mother being the captain of the ship while her father was once a member of Team Rocket, which seems like she was supposed to grow to be one devious child. Right?
However things should have gone, didn't, since her mother and father had made the decision to move into Pallet Town to raise their child properly. Throughout her childhood, she was always taught that her friends (or crew, as her mother had put it) were her first priority to protect, no matter how dire the situation was for her own sake. This is why in school, she was always beat up for protecting others who couldn't protect themselves, and why she tries to avoid others to prevent that from happening again.
By the time she had decided to adventure out in the world, in search of a larger "crew" of Pokemon, her mother had told her that when choosing her friends, to follow her heart. She travels not to become champion, but to become strong enough to protect those close to her heart.
Pokemon: Squirtle, nicknamed Matey
Here ya go, hope it's alright.
@Magnum: When I first saw that video years ago, I really thought they should make Pokemon that realistic, for the sole reason that realism would draw a larger audience. Then I realized, their target audience is children, not blood crazed adults and teens.
NAME: Conor Cotton
AGE: 15
GENDER: Male
HOMETOWN: Viridian City
APPEARANCE:
Conor is a tall, athletically built young man. He stands at a height of five-foot-seven, with board, slouching shoulders. He has a pair of caramel-brown eyes and short charcoal black, messy hair. His body is covered in scratches and bruises from his rough and high-risk-high-reward adventures that he likes to take.
Conor is often seen in a red-orange tee which buttons up near the neck and a pair of sandy kakis, with boots. He also wears a pair of black gloves and a matching baseball cap with a red-orange Pokeball logo off to the side. Every now and then Conor can be seen wearing his spring jacket, which is green and black. His belt is also a holster for his Pokemon, carrying three on each side. Conor also carries a messenger bag which holds extra clothes, books, and other random things he keeps for and from his adventures.
PERSONALITY:
Bittersweet is a perfect adjective to describe Conor and his personality. As with the word when you first meet the youth he can be a bit on the bitter side, being cold, harsh, and candid with his words. He doesn’t like conversing much and finds it annoying to have to convey his emotions through words rather than just through actions because to him actions speak louder than words. His blunt and frank attitude is more of a mask than anything though, with Conor being more so an awkward and shy conversationalist. Also he has been hinted at being a socially awkward outcast by the children he grew up with.
The second part of Conor’s bittersweetness is when you really peel back and get through to Conor’s cold exterior. That is when you get to meet his sensitive and genuinely caring side. Deep down Conor is just a shy and loving young man, showing this side to his Pokémon and family members more than anyone else. He treats his Pokémon with tender care and his family with the upmost respect, as he does with most elders.
Acting and being bitter and cold has made Conor somewhat serious most of the time. He usually does something for a specific reason and does that specific something by the books, never really drawing away from it. The only time he ever does something that is unconventional and stupid is when there is no other way or choice to do or finish something, like escaping from a horde of Beedrill’s by jumping off a fifteen foot cliff into a lake. That was probably one of the stupidest choices he’s ever made, but Conor usually makes smarter more intelligent choices in and for his adventures.
Out of all his attitude and personality traits, being frank and honest is a high quality that the friends he does have appreciate. If you can get over the fact that Conor is a jerk then he won’t be one to you. He takes a bit of getting used to, but once the two of you truly appreciate and like one another than Conor will probably be one of the greatest friends you will ever have.
HISTORY:
Conor was born to a very rich and powerful family who had a lot of influence in Viridian City and in Kanto. His father was a business man who partnered and worked closely with the various gym leaders in Kanto, helping them with keeping their gyms in the most tip-top conditions. Both his parents helped design the interiors of gyms and business buildings throughout Kanto. The power of his family didn’t just come from his parents though, both his maternal and fraternal grandparents owned big corporations which spread throughout both Kanto and Johto.
Ever since he was little all Conor could remember was being raised by a nanny and butlers. His parents were always out of town for work, building places for others, and meeting with various businessmen and entrepreneurs, which left him at home with his nannies and butlers. He was first introduced to Pokémon through his various nannies, butlers, and workers who his parents hired for their large home in Viridian City. They each taught him about Pokémon little by little, and soon enough Conor grew a big interest in them, wanting to have his own Pokémon.
Growing up he was an only child, learning how to be independent and self-efficient, but that also made him anti-social and distant with others his own age and more attracted and respectable towards those who were older than him. Throughout his childhood he was teased and bullied by kids for being too proper and boring even though he had a lot of money from his family.
Eventually at fifteen he asked his parents if he could participate in what he believed to be a rite of passage, a Pokémon adventure. At first his parents rejected the idea of Conor traveling throughout the world alone. He was a Cotton and Cotton’s were in the world of business, not the world of Pokémon. It wasn’t until he pleaded with them for over year that he was finally allowed to travel throughout Kanto.

OP
Both character sheets look great. Also, I had I idea and those familiar with the nuzlocke challenge will be know what I'm talking about. I think it would be cool if all of your Pokemon were nicknamed to make them stand out and feel more like characters rather than just tools. What do you guys think?
Squirtle has already been nicknamed, and plus the Nuzlocke challenge is sometimes just too funny. I once named a Jynx I caught "Assface", because let's be honest. Jynx is ugly with a capital U.
Jinx is hot. You just jealous of her phat swag, son.
Haha, but yeah, I may nickname Charmander in the IC. Probably something like Draco, since I'm unoriginal.

@Soul: Draco isn't unoriginal, maybe for a Dragonite, but not for Charmander.
@All: What do you guys think of my Matey wearing an eyepatch? Too much, or a hinderance, or just right, and allows for better aim of the legendary HUDRUR PURMP?

Thread is up. We can go ahead and move discussions to there.

For nicknames, I do tend to have them for my Pokemon so year. That should be fine.
Is there still room? I would love to get in on this. ^-^
