In case anyone is wondering I am not officially back yet My internet situation is sketchy at the moment and I don't want to make promises of being back when I might vanish again due to circumstances.
I'm definitely still interested, but sometime next month I'll be losing internet temporarily(for an unknown amount of time, could be a couple weeks, or a couple months), during which time I'll only be able to get online on tuesdays/thursdays, for a half hour at a time, so I don't want to commit to much of anything, until we get all settled. ^.^"
She had heard of the storms and their effects, but she had also heard there were people trying to fix whatever the phenomenon was. Surely they can handle it, so it wasn't anything to worry about. No, there were far more important things at hand. There was an upcoming performance, and it was to be Riley's debut performance. Her very first one as part of Pastel's team. Though she hadn't quite gotten over the stage fright caused by her previous trainer. That is why Pastel had a stage very much like the ones used for performance events built into her Alolan home.
She was on this stage alongside two of her pokemon. Riley and Bubbles, for they were to be her partners for the next performance. A spectacle of electricity and water, and they were getting really good at the practice sessions. Pastel could only hope that Riley would continue to do as well when it was time for the actual performance, but now wasn't the time to be thinking of such things, she had to focus on the task at hand, the finale.
"Just like we've been practicing! Bubbles, use whirl pool. Riley, use volt tackle and then psychic!" They both gave a nod of acknowledgement before going about their respective tasks. The Manaphy creating a whirlpool of water above it, while Riley built up an electrical charge around it's body, though the finale was not fated to finish, as Pastel and Riley vanished, leaving behind a rather confused Manaphy.
-moments later, in an unknown location- Pastel blinked in confusion, she was standing in a dark room with purple lighting. From what she could see, there were others around her, the only one who really seemed to know what was going on was, from what she could decipher using the little light in the room, a man with white hair standing next to the legendary dogs...wait, what? Surely she must be seeing things, that was it. This was a kidnapping, and they had drugged her, so they must be illusions. She began to panic, completely ignoring what was being said, something about introducing and questions. One question popped into her mind, and she could help but blurt it out. "How much ransom are you demanding?" by this time, she had started hugging Riley, not even noticing two of her other partners had been brought with her, until she felt a tug on her skirt, looking over to see Sylla and Sharps, the latter of which pointed to the where the mystery man and legendary pokemon were, it's own way of telling her it wasn't a hallucination and that she was safe. Upon the realization, her face went from one of worry to one of embarrassment.
Olivia
Olivia was starting to get bored with this whole 'prison' thing. The food was awful, and she didn't even get a cellmate. Something about having creeped out the last five so much. Honestly if they just let her have some fun once in a while she'd be less apt to 'creep', okay well probably not, but what would be the harm in a little fun. She sighed, at least she would have some time out of the cell today, having a court date meant she got to be around people, but more importantly that she might be able to have some fun with them. Lawyers always were the most fun, as she learned that most of them are easily scared and squirm quite a bit. When a guard came to her cell, she already knew the drill, turning around and placing her hands behind her back so the guard would feel 'safer'. Honestly she didn't understand it, as it wasn't like she couldn't just turn around, the thought had crossed her mind multiple times, but she couldn't think of an actual plan for after that. Luckily, fate was on her side, this was not meant to be a court date, but rather an escape date. Moments after feeling the cuffs locking into place, the world faded, leaving behind the cell that had been her home for a good month or two.
This new location had awful lighting, but enough that she could make out a man standing between three legendary pokemon, certainly interesting. What really caught her attention was a smell, from one of the others gathered, they had brought food, more specifically noodles, and compared to prison food they smelled absolutely divine. Had she not been bound, she might have snatched them. Her attention brought back to the mystery man once he started to speak, at which point he mentioned bringing their partners, and looking behind her, napping contently in a pile of sorts were her three partners. Such a wondrous development.
She tapped the Absol lightly with her foot, gentle enough to not injure it, but with enough force she would be guaranteed it would wake. "If you would be so kind as to use night slash on these cuffs, I'll give you a nice treat once we're finished with-" she paused and looked at the male who seemed to be in charge "you said we're supposed to be saving the world or something? Is there anything in it for us? Can't really speak for the others, but I'm not much of a people person, so why should I care? I'd probably get more enjoyment from watching it than trying to stop it." While she was speaking, the Absol did as she asked, and used night slash her bindings, freeing her hands for movement.
I'm gonna be honest, I haven't really felt like reviewing character sheets for this, partially because me and Angel had decided that it would be better for Famerin to be an npc, as she wouldn't blend in too well in a lot of the situations we would be dealing with, so it forced me to come up with a new concept, and to that end I was going to implement something that wasn't planned until later on in the roleplay, but that meant I had to flesh it out sooner. I'm not too big on world-building, so when I have to do so many tasks at once, it kinda burns me out quicker. That is why I haven't gotten to reviewing stuff, I burned myself out, because even with Angel helping with a lot of the world building, I did too much at one time.
So with that out there, for those of you who might be still interested, I must apologize, but I'm going to let this die for now. I might retry the idea at a later date in time, and if you're still interested and think you might want to try at it again when the time comes, let me know and I'll be sure to tag you if I ever decide to reboot the idea. Otherwise, I'm really sorry for being such an awful GM and wasting your time.
Name: Pastel Rivas. Whether Pastel is her real name or a self chosen one is a mystery, as anytime she, or her parents are asked, the subject is changed. For example; "Your name is seriously pastel?" "ooh what a cute beautifly!" "Yes, but what about your name?" "Oh look a butterfree too!"
Age: 14(shhh, you permitted it :p)
Gender: Female
Role: Prodigy
Region: Kalos
Trainer Class: Top Coordinator/Kalos Queen(performer)
Appearance: Pastel is shorter than others her age by half a foot, but that doesn't make her any less noticeable in a crowd. With bright pink hair, blue eyes, and pale doll-like skin it would be rather hard not to spot her. Her fashion certainly doesn't help her become any less visible either, wearing three different barrettes in her hair at a time, a skull, musical note, and a bow, not to mention the actual bow she uses to hold her long hair into a side ponytail. Her bow is is purple, with white polka dots, sounding normal, but it also has a little extra, being the two jester like plastic points, topped with a plastic pink skull. Moving down from there, you'll likely notice that she has a marking on her face, of a pink skull, which while sounding like it would be a bit creepy, actually makes her look even more adorable. The outfit she wears can vary, usually buying a brand new one every time she visits a place, but she always wears the same for performances. That outfit matching her bow, starting with a basic description: A pastel jester styled dress. For those who require more textual visualization, it starts at the top with a white jester fashioned collar, moving to a purple latex-like material with an open V shape around the breasts, revealing some skin but not enough to be inappropriate. At the top of this opening, directly under the collar, is another bow much like the one in her hair, though it's a lighter shade of purple, and lacking the jester points, having only the pink skull to top it. Halfway down the dress, in the middle of the stomach are four pink jewels, further down the top part of the dress ends in a jester like fashion, having four points one in front, one in back, and one on each side. The bottom of the dress almost gives the dress an appearance of being a separated outfit, appearing to be a short frilly skirt that starts out as a light shade of purple, two frills down getting a bit darker, with the fourth frill being a shade of pink, and the last frill becoming a lighter shade of pink. For those who might be curious what she's wearing under the dress, her panties are colored a light pastel pink, with the legendary pokemon Mew depicted on the front. Continuing on to the less lewd articles of clothing, on her wrists are two short light purple wrist sleeves, both having four jester-like points. On her legs she wears knee-high stockings with a light pink coloring. Her shoes are ankle booties, of a light purple coloring matching in the jester design of other parts of her outfit with four jester points on each one, folded over to point towards the ground, the zippers being in the back so as not to seem out of place on the design.
Personality: If you were to classify her as any of the common '-dere' archetypes, she would fall into a mixture of Deredere, Yandere, and just a sprinkle of Himedere. On one end, she's abundantly full of energy, and is generally a very kind person who most would assume wouldn't hurt anyone. However, while that's true in a sense, she's very protective over pokemon, especially her own. She won't hesitate to put herself in danger to protect her pokemon partners, and because of this she tends to bond easily with them. Even when 'serious' she holds a feminine presence, and isn't known to be threatening in even the slightest bit, which is as much disadvantageous as it is advantageous.
Motto: "Keep up with me here, things are gonna get fun!"

Unique - Does being uniquely adorable count? No? Well then I suppose this area is to be left blank. :p
Skills: Fan Combat - Pastel doesn't seem like she would be skilled in any form of combat at first glance, and most might assume that the only problem they would have would be her pokemon. That however would be a grave mistake, as she is skilled in the graceful combat style of war fans. She trains with Sharps using these, honing both her own skills as well as his.
Fans - While her previous skill was in relation to a weapon, this one is in relation to her success in contests and performances. Being both a top coordinator in multiple regions and Kalos queen has garnered a lot of attention, and with that comes a horrifying creature known to many celebrities as a 'fan'. While not as often an occurrence in the smaller towns as it is in the big cities, Pastel is often approached by complete strangers who have really high pitched screams. They are known to bring gifts, usually boxes of chocolates and flowers from the males who also request a date along with the gift, or treats for her pokemon partners. Many would debate whether this is a skill or an annoyance, but we're just gonna say it's a skill for fun. :p
Dance - Most performers and their pokemon partners perform dances, so it's not unusual for her to possess the skill to do such. Given her combat style it's a universal skill for her, being able to assist in both combat and performances.
Lyrical - This is actually a skill she doesn't make use of in her performances, or in front of people too often. Pastel has been known to sing or hum to herself when alone and bored, and those who have heard her tell her she has a wonderful voice.
Equipment: Twin War Fans - Simple war fans, gifted to her by her first mentor. She makes use of them in her performances with her partners, as well as effectively using them in combat when necessary. Standard equipment - Every good trainer knows there are certain things you never go without. For Pastel, she has around 5 standard potions, one max revive, pokefood, grooming supplies, and money to pay for lodging and food in towns. Bedding - You're probably thinking that 'bedding' is maybe just a sleeping bag, and you would be wrong. Pastel will refuse to sleep on the ground if she has any say in the matter, and just in case she can't have a nice warm room in an inn, she has a basic, two person tent that doubles as a bed, it is pink. Beside that, she has two pillows, one pink, one purple, a comforter, and a thinner blanket. Beings as it is a two person tent, she would not be adverse to sharing, so long as whoever she was sharing with would not mind her snuggling up to them, otherwise Sylla and Riley would sleep with her(Sharps is too heavy, and not a comfortable cuddler).
Bio:
The background chosen for the promotional video of Pastel was very much reminiscent of a 'candy land', with bright colors and pink clouds that very much resembled cotton candy. For a moment a dark ball passed onto the screen, followed by a yellow streak striking it causing it to burst, and then a what appeared to be a frosty wind swept over, freezing the event, causing a beautiful mist of crystallized dark energy. When it cleared, Pastel could be seen standing in the middle striking a pose only befitting of an idol. Beside her stood her best performance partners. A Manaphy, an Alolan Ninetails, a shiny Pachirisu, a Sylveon, an Umbreon, an Alolan Raichu, a shiny Lopunny, and lastly a Bisharp. "Hello my lovely fans! Many of you have asked me to do a promotional video showcasing my best performers, and here they are!" she finishes off waving her arm in indication towards her pokemon. The camera then zooms in on the Manaphy. "This is Bubbles, Many of my rivals have said it's unfair to use such a rare pokemon, but really they're just jealous. Bubbles is very friendly, and loves to show off for you all." The camera then moves onto the Ninetails. "This is Frost. She's not much of a people person, and to the breeder that tried to introduce another ninetails at our last performance, I'm so sorry, and I hope you aren't mad at her." The camera shifts again, to the Pachirisu, or at least tries to as it is running around wildly and the camera can't move fast enough. At one point Pastel can be seen running past the camera trying to catch it. Thirty seconds later, the camera focuses onto Pastel, now holding a sleeping Pachirisu. "This is Risu, and she's very hyper as you saw. She doesn't like holding still, but she's great at helping me bake, if you ever stop by our home in Alola we'll make you and your partners some Pokepuffs!" Next up are the Sylveon and Umbreon. "I'm sure you all know these two, being featured in many of my performances. Their names are Sylla and Shade, and as you might have guessed by their close proximity they're lovers. They make the cutest couple!" The camera is then seen looking around, with worried whispering in the background. "It's fine, I'm sure she just went outside." Pastel could be heard telling the director, as the camera just focuses on her instead. "I'm sorry, Riley isn't much fond of attention, we're still getting her used to training, but you'll be seeing her in my performances in the near future!" A crash can be heard, and the camera is zoomed back out, giving a larger perspective of the Lopunny and Bisharp fighting. "I told you two to be good! Lilah, Sharps, stop it!" A stray Metal Burst from Sharps hit's the camera, cutting the video short.
Pokemon Name: Sylveon
Nickname: Sylla
Bond: Max
Gender: Female
Role: Partner
Appearance: "Corrupt Sylla's perfect beauty with items? Surely not." "Because she won't let me. ;.;" Sylla will not let anyone put any items on her, be it a barrette or a bow, though she is more than happy to demand a brushing twice a day to make sure her fur stays perfect.
Personality: Vanity is a word that fit's Synna's personality rather well. She hates the mud, refusing to battle on a muddy field, and even refusing to make physical contact with Grimer, Muk, and Trubbish. Beyond that, it is clear that she holds a certain amount of respect, and even an unbreakable bond of friendship with Pastel, having once gotten over herself long enough to fend off a wild Muk, though still avoiding mud in the process.

How You Met: Pastel met Sylla when she was but a wee little Eevee. She wasn't her first pokemon, but she was the first pokemon that Pastel caught in the wild, if you can call it that. The Eevee was found outside near her home on a cold winter night, she could hear it's cries, and went to investigate. She brought it in to warm by the fire, and they became fast friends.
Pokemon Name: Bisharp
Nickname: Sharps
Bond: Average
Gender: Male
Role: Support
Appearance: Sharps is not one of her performance pokemon, and so beyond the usual grooming one would perform for a steel pokemon, there is not much upkeep to this Bisharp's appearance.
Personality: Sharps is honorable, choosing his battles carefully. If his opponents stand no chance, he will not fight, instead leaving the battlefield. If he see's someone picking on the weak, he will defend them. While at first he was adverse to Pastel, he has became one of her most loyal partners, and will gladly fight either for her, or by her side.
Stats:
Hp 10 Attk 25 Def 25 Sp.Atk 5 Sp.Def 5 Speed 10
How You Met: Sharps was her very first pokemon, a gift from her father. Though, as he was already evolved by then, he did not feel she was worthy of him. It wasn't until three months later that she proved herself worthy when he saw her place herself in the middle of a battle between a newbie trainer with a poliwag, and a team rocket grunt using an electabuzz. This was the first time she battled with Sharps, and while he's never been in a performance with her, he hasn't left her side since.
Pokemon Name: Raichu (alolan form)
Nickname: Riley
Bond: Low
Gender: Female
Role: Support
Appearance: Riley can be seen occasionally wearing a small pink ribbon fashioned into a bow on it's tail, with one on it's right ear as well. Grooming habits involve being brushed once a day.
Personality: Riley is a very curious and energetic pokemon that has been known to wander off to investigate things seemingly at random. In battle, Riley is focused, and seems almost like a completely different pokemon. Oddly, battling makes Riley hungry, and usually any food nearby after a battle isn't around long. Riley isn't fond of people.
Stats:
Hp 5 Attk 10 Def 5 Sp.Atk 10 Sp.Def 5 Speed 25
How You Met: Pastel met Riley while on her journey to becoming a top coordinator. Riley having originally belonged to one of her rivals. Her rival lost, Pastel claiming the prize, and he blamed it on Riley. He went to hit his pokemon partner, and Pastel having seen placed herself in the path. Sharps scared off the rival coordinator with a well placed suckerpunch, and Riley has since been traveling with Pastel.
Appearance: Hair - Blonde with blue tips, long, twin tail style Skin - Pale Eyes - Light Blue Height - Average Weight - Average
Personality: The first thing you should note about Olivia is that she is a sadist, enjoying the pain of others a great deal. Now, you might be thinking: ‘Oh great, a murderer’, but she’s never actually killed people, only leaving them in pain. Her view on pokemon is a bit similar, she doesn’t mind hurting them, and will tell her pokemon to go all out in a battle, though once they’re unable to continue, she does show mercy moving onto the trainer. She’s not without humanity though, showing concern for those she might call ‘friends’, including her own pokemon.

Skills: Torture - This skill comes with the territory of being a sadist, over time you learn from your experiences what causes the most pain, with the least amount of lethality, such as how long you can suffocate someone for, where the best places to stab a person are, etc.
First Aid - You can inflict more pain upon a person if you heal them mid-torture. So, in Olivia’s mind at least, it was only natural for her to learn this important skill. She isn’t likely to be performing advanced medical procedures, but she can for the most part treat small wounds on both humans and pokemons.
Combat - She knows how to use her weapon effectively, both for her sadistic tendencies, but actual combat as well, of course it would be odd for her to possess a weapon and be unable to use it effectively.
Pokemon Riding - What? You thought she was limited to being creepy? Well, she’s not. She can ride Ponytas, Rapidashs, and even Rhyhorns, as her family owned a farm where they taught local kids to do so. As a result, this is a skill Olivia learned at a young age.
Ballroom+Ballet - Two skills she learned as a child, as her parents tried to get her to engage in more normal activities. Of course not skills she puts to use often, she’s certainly not going to prance around in a tutu, but regardless of whether it’s something she often does or not, it’s a skill she possesses.
Equipment: Glittering Thread - Her weapon appears to be two arrowheads tied on opposite ends of a long string(which is white, not black), providing a medium-to-close ranged weapon. The string is made from the silk of a Spinarak, making it nearly unbreakable. The blades(or arrowheads as some might call them), are made of a sturdy magnetic material, each holding an opposite charge so the weapon can be wrapped around one’s waist to be worn as a belt until needed.

Bio:
The first thing that could be seen when the screen flickered to life was Olivia, handcuffed to a bench in a seemingly bland room. “Do I have to be in here?” A shaky voice came from behind the camera. “Only if you want paid, we’re here for an interview. She’s bound to the bench, she can’t hurt you.” The directors statement probably didn’t help much, given the look Olivia was giving in the direction of the camera, and by relation the man operating it. Again the director could be heard, this time directed towards Olivia and not the cameraman. “So, for our viewers, can we ask for your name, and maybe some info about yourself?” Her voice sounded rather sweet and innocent, not like what you would have expected from her expression, which she tried to make as normal as possible for her introduction. “My name, it’s Olivia Wynter. My parents own a ranch, that you’ve surely heard of, where they teach youngins to ride pokemon. My hobbies include battling, and-” she stopped talking, and instead just gave a smirk towards the cameraman. Which resulted in the camera shaking, and what sounded like a crash not far behind the camera. Olivia, laughing at the result, it was a little hard to determine if the laugh was cute or creepy, but the most likely conclusion that it was both. “Can I get out of here now?” The cameraman asked. “We’re not done with the video yet, we still have to meet her partners.” The director stated, a whine from the cameraman suggested he was unhappy with the decision. Moments later three pokemon were led into the room. With a police Machamp standing closeby as a guard. “Can you introduce us to your friends Olivia?” Came the director's voice. “Oh I’d love to. The Absol, her name is Abby. She’s not fond of people, in fact, how about you come in here and greet her personally?” The director made a slightly shocked sound, and the cameraman made a highly audible squeak of terror. “Next up here we have Sheila, she’s great at following orders. I wonder what she would do if I told her to-” The machamp cut her off, resulting in an annoyed huff on her part. “Fine fine, spoil sport. Next up is Vanilla here, she’s really pretty isn’t she? Wanna come pet her? It’s been awhile since I’ve seen her use Dark Pulse.” And that was when it was decided. “We have enough footage now.” Came the director's voice, followed shortly be a hurried scurrying from behind the camera, and a “Go back and get the camera you idiot.” shortly after, the screen flicking back off.
Pokemon Name: Absol
Nickname: Abby
Bond: Max
Gender: Female
Role: Partner
Appearance: Abby looks like most other Absols, though she is a bit smaller. Olivia doesn’t put much stock in her pokemons appearances, but Abby does groom herself occasionally.
Personality: Abby is playful when around other pokemon, but dislikes most people. Her dislike of people doesn’t come out in a shy way, but rather one through violence, making her an excellent partner for Olivia.
Stats:
Hp 10 Attk 50 Def 5 Sp.Atk 15 Sp.Def 15 Speed 5
How You Met: Olivia met Abby while the latter was being chased by a farmer with a rifle. Abby had tried to warn the farmer of an earthquake she sensed, and after it occurred he blamed her. Olivia stepped in to help the Absol, though that really wasn’t her intention as she was just bored, and by the time she had finished with him, he started crawling back towards the town for help. Abby had followed her around for a few days after, before officially becoming her partner.
Pokemon Name: Weavile
Nickname: Sheila
Bond: Average
Gender: Female
Role: Support
Appearance: Sheila looks like every other Weavile, with nothing especially abnormal about her. She, like Abby, will occasionally groom herself as Olivia has no interest in doing so.
Personality: Sheila is first and foremost, obedient. It’s honestly hard to pinpoint if she does what she’s told because she likes it, or if she’s just trying to make Olivia happy, but she follows most orders without hesitation. When not in battle, she can be found swiping food, especially berries, from any poor sap not guarding it well enough.
Stats:
Hp 10 Attk 20 Def 10 Sp.Atk 5 Sp.Def 15 Speed 20
How You Met: Some might say the bond between Sheila is a special one, as she was Olivia’s first pokemon. Her parents had gotten the Sneasel as a ‘please stop being creepy’ gift. Though it didn’t work as intended, and simply made it worse, giving her an outlet for her sadistic tendencies.
Pokemon Name: Umbreon
Nickname: Vanilla
Bond: Average
Gender: Female
Role: Support
Appearance: Vanilla is a special Umbreon, in that it isn’t shiny, but it isn’t normal. Instead of the usual yellow or blue markings, Vanilla has white ones. She grooms herself once a day, making sure to keep her fur coat in a state of near perfection.
Personality: Vanilla seems like an odd addition to Olivia’s roster, seemingly being unhostile, and even hesitating if told to move on from the pokemon it was battling to a trainer. However, spill anything messy on her and you’ll learn that she can be very hostile, usually in the form of a point blank range dark pulse.
Stats:
Hp 10 Attk 10 Def 10 Sp.Atk 10 Sp.Def 10 Speed 10
How You Met: Olivia first met Vanilla during one of her ‘fits’. The pokemon having been a wild one that was well known in a little off the grid village, people often shared food with it when they saw it, and during one such occurrence a small kid tried to share some ice cream, and it fell on her. She was unhappy with the development, and attempted to use Dark Pulse, but the parent seeing the umbreon was about to do so, got in the way. Vanilla was then exiled from the village, Olivia having met up with it and offering to take it with her on her travels.
Appearance: Hair - Blonde with blue tips, long, twin tail style Skin - Pale Eyes - Light Blue Height - Average Weight - Average
Personality: The first thing you should note about Olivia is that she is a sadist, enjoying the pain of others a great deal.

I wonder what she would do if I told her to-” The machamp cut her off, resulting in an annoyed huff on her part. “Fine fine, spoil sport. Next up is Vanilla here, she’s really pretty isn’t she? Wanna come pet her? It’s been awhile since I’ve seen her use Dark Pulse.” And that was when it was decided. “We have enough footage now.” Came the director's voice, followed shortly be a hurried scurrying from behind the camera, and a “Go back and get the camera you idiot.” shortly after, the screen flicking back off.
Pokemon Name: Absol
Nickname: Abby
Bond: Max
Gender: Female
Role: Partner
Appearance: Abby looks like most other Absols, though she is a bit smaller. Olivia doesn’t put much stock in her pokemons appearances, but Abby does groom herself occasionally.
Personality: Abby is playful when around other pokemon, but dislikes most people. Her dislike of people doesn’t come out in a shy way, but rather one through violence, making her an excellent partner for Olivia.
Stats:
Hp 10 Attk 50 Def 5 Sp.Atk 15 Sp.Def 15 Speed 5
How You Met: Olivia met Abby while the latter was being chased by a farmer with a rifle. Abby had tried to warn the farmer of an earthquake she sensed, and after it occurred he blamed her. Olivia stepped in to help the Absol, though that really wasn’t her intention as she was just bored, and by the time she had finished with him, he started crawling back towards the town for help. Abby had followed her around for a few days after, before officially becoming her partner.
Pokemon Name: Weavile
Nickname: Sheila
Bond: Average
Gender: Female
Role: Support
Appearance: Sheila looks like every other Weavile, with nothing especially abnormal about her. She, like Abby, will occasionally groom herself as Olivia has no interest in doing so.
Personality: Sheila is first and foremost, obedient. It’s honestly hard to pinpoint if she does what she’s told because she likes it, or if she’s just trying to make Olivia happy, but she follows most orders without hesitation. When not in battle, she can be found swiping food, especially berries, from any poor sap not guarding it well enough.
Stats:
Hp 10 Attk 20 Def 10 Sp.Atk 5 Sp.Def 15 Speed 20
How You Met: Some might say the bond between Sheila is a special one, as she was Olivia’s first pokemon. Her parents had gotten the Sneasel as a ‘please stop being creepy’ gift. Though it didn’t work as intended, and simply made it worse, giving her an outlet for her sadistic tendencies.
Pokemon Name: Umbreon
Nickname: Vanilla
Bond: Average
Gender: Female
Role: Support
Appearance: Vanilla is a special Umbreon, in that it isn’t shiny, but it isn’t normal. Instead of the usual yellow or blue markings, Vanilla has white ones. She grooms herself once a day, making sure to keep her fur coat in a state of near perfection.
Personality: Vanilla seems like an odd addition to Olivia’s roster, seemingly being unhostile, and even hesitating if told to move on from the pokemon it was battling to a trainer. However, spill anything messy on her and you’ll learn that she can be very hostile, usually in the form of a point blank range dark pulse.
Stats:
Hp 10 Attk 10 Def 10 Sp.Atk 10 Sp.Def 10 Speed 10
How You Met: Olivia first met Vanilla during one of her ‘fits’. The pokemon having been a wild one that was well known in a little off the grid village, people often shared food with it when they saw it, and during one such occurrence a small kid tried to share some ice cream, and it fell on her. She was unhappy with the development, and attempted to use Dark Pulse, but the parent seeing the umbreon was about to do so, got in the way. Vanilla was then exiled from the village, Olivia having met up with it and offering to take it with her on her travels.
To clarify the "Class" field, are we limited to trainer types encountered in the games, like "Cool Trainer" or "Hiker", or is it a more general description of your style of training?
Also, how does "Bond" in the Pokemon's stats work? Is it just another stat for point to get poured into, or is it dependent on the Trainer's Bond stat?
First, the Class field is indeed things you would encounter in the games, but it also includes trainer types from the anime/manga, such as performer from x/y.
Secondly, the bond in the pokemon sheet is to be filled out with 'Max/strong/average/weak' depending on the strength of the bond, which does reflect upon the bond stat of your trainer. Example; if you have a bond stat of two, your partner will be max, but the other two will be low, or at best one will be average.
20 base points to allocate plus 5 every 5 years past 10(the age someone can become a trainer) to account for experience, because a 30 year old is going to be more experienced than my 14 year old character, and this would reflect it, without being too op and making younger characters obsolete. ^.^
