Pokémon: Welcome to the Kaida Region

I posted this on Casual Interest Checks, but I'm re-posting here if anyone would want to go more in-depth with it.

Hello! I'm recruiting for my new Pokémon roleplay in a region of my own creation: The Kaida Region! Ideally, I'd like to tackle this roleplay with 2-3 other people, but if others want to join in and play gym leaders, the evil team, etc. then I'm more than happy to try and find a place for you. I've included some basic information on the world down below. If you'd like to take part, I can do the rp here or over a discord server. LMK what you guys think!

The Kaida Region

Based on: The American West/Rocky Mountains

Theme: Exploration/Adventure

Background: The Kaida regions isn't as well known as some of the other regions in the Pokémon world. It's on the smaller side and there is no formal Pokémon League. The region's only major claim to fame is the Calagon Mountain Range. Depending on the time of year, various dragon-type Pokémon migrate to the Kaida region to mate in the vast mountains that dominate the landscape. Various towns and small cities have sprouted around the mountains where space is available. An ancient legend in the region says that should one ascend to the peak of Mt. Calagon - the highest point in the regions - they would meet the legendary Pokémon that created the Kaida region as a haven for dragons.

Towns/Cities: In keeping with the exploration theme of the region, all the towns/cities that make up the Kaida region are named after planets in the solar system. They are (in order of appearance):
-Mercer Town
-Hesperus City
-Terran Town
-Phobos Town
-Zhivegas City
-Kronos Town
-Umbriel Base
-Plutus Village
-Solaris City

Gyms (or lack thereof): Because they don't have a Pokémon League, the Kaida Region doesn't have much use for gyms. In place of that, the towns all have a Overseer. The Overseers are essentially the caretakers of a particular section of the region. In order to access a restricted section of a route, a trainer must defeat the Overseer in a Pokémon battle and earn a Mark in recognition they are skilled enough to explore the restricted area. Once a trainer has acquired all eight Marks from the Overseers only then are they deemed ready to ascend Mt. Calagon. (I have chosen types for each of the Overseers, but I'm willing to discuss with you if there's something you think may fit better)

The Professor: The local Pokémon Professor in Kaida is Professor Cypress. Cypress is a former trainer for the Johto Region who is obsessed with studying Dragon-Type Pokémon. He believes there is something truly unique about them and that Kaida holds the secret to truly understanding this bizarre group of Pokémon.

Starters: In keeping with the Professor's Dragon-Type obsession, all his starters are dragon-type. It should go without saying, but all three starters will evolve into a regional "Kaidan" variant.
- Dratini -> Kaidan Dragonite (Dragon/Steel)
- Bagon -> Kaidan Salamence (Dragon/Ground)
- Gible -> Kaidan Garchomp (Dragon/Ice)

There's the basic rundown. If you are interested, I'd love to get this RP off the ground! Also, I'm not much of an artist so if people want to help me make designs for some of these characters as well, I'd love to make them a reality! If you've read this far, then I appreciate your interest! Let's make this region happen!

Hi. I'm New. Want a Cookie?

What's up? I'm TheNoCoKid, but you can just call me NoCo or Kid when talking to me directly. You can even call me "Cousin NoCo", but just don't ask me for money ok? I've got more than a few years of roleplaying experience. I started it as a hobby by messing with people during the early days of Omegle, but I eventually moved onto Shamchat, and Rolechat as the sites got overtaken by bots or shut down.

I typically prefer doing one-on-one roleplays because that's what I'm used to, but I'm becoming open to the idea of doing more group stuff now that I'm on here. For one-on-one, I'm not big into writing srp or bdsm stuff because it's just not something I'm altogether comfortable doing.

In terms of my favorite types of RPs, I'm a pretty big fan of doing fantasy (medieval and modern) as well as doing some science fiction to balance it out. I'm not crazy about doing Fandom RPs, but there are a few that I like messing around with. Those being Pokémon, Marvel, Power Rangers, and anime.

For anyone who may be inclined, I actually have my own Pokemon Region and Power Ranger Team stories that I've been sitting on for awhile and would love to do a big RP for. Hit me up if you're interested!
