Pokemon Colosseum: Lesser of Two Evils

Pyrite Town

The ride from Gateon port was uneventful, a bit rough, but uneventful. Rolling into town the old man parked in front of the Pokemon Center. The old man stood from his bike followed by Ray. Taking off his helmet Ray spoke first. "Thank you again for the ride. It's really helped out a ton." Ray said as he handed over the helmet. The ride really did save him a great amount of time. Although the journey is just as fun as the destination sometimes if the journey is treacherous it is smart to take precautions.

The old man took the helmet with a smile. "You're quite welcome sonny. I hope you have fun at the Colosseum. I wish you luck." He said as he stowed away the helmets. He then turned back to Ray. "Well then, if you ever make your way back to Gateon and in need of some medicine feel free to pop into the shop, but for now I must be on my way. Got a delivery to make." The old man added offering a hand to shake.

Ray took the hand with a grin. "Thank you, and I will. Safe travels to you as well." He wished patting the old man on the shoulder. Taking their separate ways Ray walked north and the old man walked west. Ray looked around as he walked and he smiled with anticipation when he saw the dome of the Colosseum towering overhead on the northernmost side of town. As Ray continued to walk he saw more and more people walking around with their pokemon. He released Trina from her pokeball to walk too. As they entered an area where people were battling Ray and Trina's anticipation was palpable on their faces. They were itching for some action.

"I said, no thanks."

Ray turned hearing the anxiety in someone's voice. Some roughneck looking woman looked like she was threatening some quiet looking guy. Ray could see a pokeball in her free hand and put two and two together. "Hey lady! Leave the guy alone! He said no. If you wanna battle someone battle me. I've got an itch to scratch too." Ray challenged the rude woman. Following her Trainer Trina lowered herself into a threatening pose and growled deeply bearing her teeth.

KYOHEI (WIP)

Gen. Info.

Name: Yoshida, Kyohei

Age: 14

Gender: Male

Appearance:


Height and Weight: 168cm/123kg

Personality: Core characteristics and peculiarities; may include likes and dislikes

History: Brief background explaining where you are right now in life

Quirk Info.

Name: Viper

Description: Kyohei has a large green snake growing from the small of his back. It has an extremely venomus
bite, can spit its venom, can constrict it's prey with it's powerful body, and everything else a snake can do. Also
provides Kyohei with a second pair of eyes. Kyohei calls it Yamada.

Limitations: Since Yamada has only grown as long as Kyohei is tall it has a significant reach deficiet when it
comes to crawling into small spaces to possibly scout out an area. Yamada can also run out of venom if it bites and or
spits to much within a short amount of time. Should it run out of venom it takes 24 hours to completely stock up again.
Yamada also has a mind and stomach of it's own so should Kyohei neglect Yamada in some way he could put it in a bad mood
and it won't listen to commands or help much.

Weaknesses: The main one is Kyohei shares blood with a snake hence both of them are cold blooded. So should they be
attacked with cold manipulation or enter an extremely cold enviroment their cognigtive function begins to shut down and
start to go into a coma like hibernation. Besides that Kyohei is just an ordinary kid and Yamada is an ordinary snake.
Although, Kyohei isn't completely defenseless he does study kung-fu afterall

What y'all think so far?

Pokemon Colosseum: Lesser of Two Evils

Aboard the S.S.Libra en route to Gateon Port

A young man sits on the deck of a ship bound for the shores of the Orre region. The salty sea air, the warm ocean breeze, and the crowing of the Seagull Pokemon as the ship cruises the waves. Thoughts of home and the past cross the young man's mind. How hard he worked to prove he was responsible for a pokemon. His parents and his mentor. His thoughts were quickly brought back to the present when the ship's horn blew indicating they were close to shore. Standing the young man walked to the edge of the ship and looked toward the horizon. There it was. His future. The future of Ray Jenkins from Mauville City. A bark could be heard and a tug at his pants could be felt. It was an Electrike. Ray's partner Trina asking to see the view. Picking up the Lightning Pokemon Ray stroked it's mane. "See that, girl?" Ask the trainer pointing to the shoreline. "Our first foray into Orre, Gateon Port." Ray explained. Trina barked happily and licked her master's face lovingly.

About an hour later Ray and Trina were making their way down the pier into town. It didn't seem to awfully big, but a few buildings stood out among the others. Like one shaped like a Krabby and the beautiful lighthouse. As the pair walked through the bustling port town they looked for a place to stop and ask for directions. Ray didn't want to disturb the working sailors, and didn't want to chance talking to random locals. He had heard the rumors of thugs from a group called Cipher. If they were anything like Team Aqua or Team Magma he wanted to steer clear. After a few minutes of searching Ray spotted a small nondescript shop with a sign depicting a caduceus. Ray entered with the thought that an apothecary wouldn't be any trouble. Inside the walls were lined with bottles of all kinds of natural remedies. The air had a musty earthy smell. Like dried mud and wet leaves. At the back of the store behind the counter was an old man with a large grey beard sipping on tea reading a book.

"Welcome young man! Thank you for coming. If there is anything you need just ask." Said the elderly gentleman without looking up from his book. Ray was a bit surprised the man could tell his gender without looking up, but he just chocked it up to experience. As Ray stepped deeper into the store Trina sniffed at the herbs and medicines on the shelves. Smelling a particular nasty one she sneezed and knocked it off the shelf breaking the jar.

"Trina! Be careful. Come here." He ordered bending down to pick up his pokemon. "Sorry about that sir I'll pay for that." Ray apologized.

"No need sonny. It was an accident." Assured the man finally looking up from his book. A quizzical brow raised itself when he set eyes on Ray. "Ah, I see now. Not from around here are you? You look at bit lost." The man asked standing from his stool behind the counter.

Ray was going to insist on paying for the broken product, but was stopped by the gentleman changing the subject. Ray flushed a bit at being called lost, but it was true. He had came to Orre with the intent of participating in the Colosseum, but he had been so excited to see the sights he had forgot to ask for a map. "No, I'm from Hoenn. I'm traveling to battle at the Colosseum, but I don't know my way around." Ray explained.

"The Colosseum? There are multiple colosseums in Orre, but if you're looking for THE Colosseum you're probably want to head for Pyrite Town. However, there is a problem. Duking has just recently issued a warning for trainers that they shouldn't travel alone because there has been increased reports of activity from Cipher and an unknown rival group. It could be dangerous for a tourist." Revealed the old man.

"I can take care of myself. I have Trina and my other pokemon. We've worked hard for this opportunity. We can't back down just because of some thugs. Please. I just need a map or directions to the nearest bus or train depot." Ray begged, with Trina adding in a whine of her own along with her puppy eyes.

"No trains, not anymore, and the desert is to treacherous for buses. People travel by truck or motorcycle. I suppose I could give you a ride. You seem like a nice enough kid." Offered the old man.

"Thank you sir. That's very kind of you."

"No problem. I was about to close up shop anyway."

Ray followed the old man out the back door to an alleyway. Parked next to the adjacent building was the gentleman's motorcycle. A trike with all terrain wheels and a four cylinder engine. Reaching into a compartment the old man tossed a helmet to Ray before slipping one on himself. Tossing a leg over the machine he gestured for Ray to hop on. Ray returned Trina to her pokeball and hopped on. The motorcycle roared to life before rolling out of the alley and finally out of town toward Pyrite.

i will come morning

My Hero Academia - Summer/Boot Camp Style

So I'm having a bit of trouble deciding on a quirk and was wondering if I could maybe get some thoughts on some of the ones I'm leaning towards

Continue: A quirk which allows the user to create a "save point", from which the user records their current health status, location, and any items they have on them. When the save point is activated the user transports back to the save point, regressing to whatever state they were in at the time of creating the save point. There's no physical limit to how far away the character can re spawn from, but there is a time limit of 30min.

Phantom Limbs:A quirk belonging to a user without physical limbs, but whose capable of creating pshycic constructs from the nerves that would attach to the limbs if they were there. These limbs could be freely manipulated, but require focus to hold and if the user becomes too exhausted to keep the ability activated their rendered almost completely helpless, again because they don't have arms and legs. Also almost impossible to copy if the copier isn't missing any parts of their body.

Armor point:A quirk that allows the user to encase a single section of their body in a black, smooth, substance which vastly increases their defense and striking power. The downside is that it can only coat one area of their body at a time and the user must make a conscious effort to move it to a different area.

Balloon skin:A mutation type quirk that cause's the user to look similar to a pug or British bull dog in that there are A LOT of long folds of skin covering their body. The user' skin is made out of a rubber like material that's both stretchy, bouncy, and is fairly resistant to blunt force. There are even valves in the folds of the skin the connect to pockets.

RGH(Rapid Growth Hair):The user can control the roots of their hair and can cause it to disconnect hair, shoot it out, or grow it at a rapid race so that the fully shaved user can turn into Cousin IT in a matter of seconds. The hair itself isn't actually any stronger or weaker than regular hair, it's just the roots grant the user a variety of ways to use it.

@jynmi88

Continue seems it could be a tad OP
Phantom Limbs seem neat
Armor point sounds cool, we are missing a bruiser
balloon skin is my fave sounds fun and can lead to shenanigans
rgh, ditto to turbo
