Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Notice: So TUM has well demonstrated her ability to understand and critique posts, so Ima go ahead and give her permission to do so in a more official capacity. Which is to say, if she sees something wrong in your post and asks you to change you, you are obligated to do so. Arguing with her will be taken as equivalent to arguing with me. If you disagree, please state so politely or PM me about it so I can make an executive decision Story "Seventeen years after the events of Pokemon Black and White 2, Unova faced the revival of Team Plasma. But this time, the group forgot the violence that had condemned them years before. They held peaceful rallies, lobbying for trainer awareness of their Pokemon. Their new leader, a scientist named Aaron Madison, proposed a project to let trainers battle each other directly, to let them feel what their Pokemon felt and decide the ethics of battling for themselves. The support for PokeVein, as the project was called, was massive. People curious to see what it would be like to be in their Pokemon's shoes and people questioning the ethics alike volunteered for the two year testing period. The full activation and final test were scheduled for three months after the project was originally proposed. During these three months, the volunteers were put through all sorts of conditioning and training to learn how to use Pokemon attacks. They were given short trials of the Vein system and attached to a partner Pokemon Most of the hundreds of volunteers were removed from the testing program for a variety of reasons, until only seventy-two were left for the final test." The video ends and Madison, a wiry old man, turns to face you. "Now forget all that, none of it actually matters and you knew it anyway Of the seventy-two, only you eighteen will be grafted a full Vein system. The others will be given a basic version, allowing them to perform the attacks of their partners. But you will be able to do more. You will be able to access their minds, feel what they feel. You will be as one. You will be able to hear their thoughts, and they yours. This is a great undertaking, tomorrow we will demonstrate what being a Pokemon is truly like!" If only he could have foreseen the consequences. Plot You are one of the eighteen, not that you remember that. The grafting process for the full system took a toll on your mind, you lost your memory. Worse, for some reason you of course can't remember, you're being hunted by the authorities. Though you have no real memories, you do recall names and have the instincts for basic human survival and to use the Vein system(I'll try to give you more to go off when the RP starts, but I don't really have much more than "survive" ATM) The Vein System The Vein system is housed in a small backpack with four wires protruding. These wires connect to the base of the skull, at the elbows, and the base of the spine. A trainer inserts a Pokeball into a receptacle at the top of the Vein to interface with the Pokemon contained inside, adopting their ability and moves, as well as creating a telepathic link Each Vein system is calibrated to a specific type, placing a Pokemon that does not posses that type in the system does nothing. A character may only link with one partner at a time. And may only carry six on their person. They have no PC access, due to being fugitives the authorities have locked them out The characters may also battle with their Pokemon in the standard format. However, the link created with the Vein system will be active when the Pokemon is out of their Pokeball. Allowing the trainer to command them telepathically, but also causing them to feel whatever the Pokemon feels As a safety built in to prevent the mind from being overwhelmed by multiple links, the trainer can only open one Pokeball at a time while attached to the Vein system Rules: >Follow all DC rules >Follow common sense >Follow my instructions >No legendaries >No mega evolving for now, and megas must be compatible with the Vein in both their normal and mega forms >You may start with any non-legendary you like, but the Pokemon you find in the wild will refuse to be caught unless they are first stage Pokemon >Battles will follow anime rules, I suggest looking up how all your moves work in the anime before using them >Limit one trainer character per RPer. Subject to exception under silly rules >Four sentence post minimum, does not include dialogue Link to our Chatzy, password is pokemon TMs and Tutors TMs may be acquired via special challenges from TM experts. If you wish to find a TM, PM me and we can work something out In addition, certain TMs may be purchased from vendors (these would be black marketed, since official vendors would turn you in) These TMs are limited to Gen III TMs no longer in circulation and prototype Gen VI TMs (very expensive) TMs may only be used once before breaking. You must earn or buy another if you wish for multiple Pokemon to use a TM Move tutors will be just like the ones in BW2, though they will be wary of fugitives HMs may only be acquired from Gym Leaders. Most Leaders will be sympathetic and willing to help you.

Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Accepted Characters: MasterWeavile898: Username: MW898 Character Name: Dazzle Joy Redroot Age: 18 Gender: Female Personality: Dazzle is very thought-oriented, thinking things through a long time beforehand and deciding what will happen. She adapts slowly, but often gets things right the first time, thus she doesn't need to. She has a tendency to view everything as a story, and will base life-changing decisions on this. Sometimes picking the longshot option simply because it works in the story format. She's physically strong, and likes to wear revealing clothing to show off her muscles. She has a tendency to be blunt and dry, rarely taking no for an answer. This in turn feeds her slow adaptation rate, because she refuses to admit she might have been wrong the first time Type: Ice Partner(s): Adelaide Other: Though it's not required, here's her appearance. She has pale skin, long blonde hair pulled back in a ponytail. Her eyes are bright blue and her nose is crooked from being broken when she was younger Username: MW898 Character Name: Sparrow Teach Age: 16 Gender: Female Personality: Sparrow is a fairly normal sixteen year old girl. She can be a bit childish at times, and tends to take almost anything said to her very directly. She dresses somewhat oddly not as a manner of drawing attention or because she finds her clothing choice especially comfortable, but because someone once made fun of her for being a pirate, due to her eye. Speaking of her eye, Sparrow's right eye has been replaced by a cyberkinetic one. She doesn't feel very comfortable talking about why, and becomes very defensive when asked about it Type: Ground Partner(s): Roger Other: #namereferences Name: Adelaide Species: Glaceon Trainer: Dazzle Gender: Female Nature and Personality: Calm. Adelaide cares strongly about doing the right thing. And will try to convince those around her to do the same. She will oft act as a voice of reason for those who have trouble discerning right and wrong for themselves. Her goal in life is to teach Ability: Snow Cloak Move 1: Hail Move 2: Blizzard Move 3: Protect Move 4: Hyper Voice Name: Roger Species: Shiny Garchomp Trainer: Sparrow Gender: Male Nature and personality: Jolly. Roger can be a bit rough around the edges. But once you get past his corse sense of humor he's really quite likable. He enjoys joking around with his friends more than anything, though slashing foes is a close second. He has a bit of an eye for shiny things, and drinks all together way too much root beer Ability: Rough Skin Move 1: Dragon Claw Move 2: Slash Move 3: Poison Jab Move 4: Earthquake SilverPhoenixx Username: Silverphoenixx Character Name: Carmine Epika Age: 16 Gender: Female Personality: Carmine is cautious around strangers and acts differently based on emotions. She is influenced heavily by her emotions in her actions. When not feeling much emotion, she tends to be immature and sarcastic to people she knows. A dislike of strangers leads to her avoiding crowds and too much attention. Type: Dragon Partner(s): Litherin Other: I have trouble making short paragraphs on things. Username: Silverphoenixx Character Name: Jay Owen Age: 21, but looks 16. Gender: Male Personality: Jay quite frankly, is clumsy. He often drops even the easiest to grip things, contributed to by how he is easily distracted. Although he wants to make friends with people, his stutter and nervousness often makes it hard. He also has a habit of speeding up when talking, making it hard to understand his speech. Despite all this, he still enjoys the company of others, as long as they don't make fun of his qualities. He cannot stand up to bullies at all, due to being frail and weak. Often, people will mistake him for being much younger, and he tries to correct them, but they usually don't remember. Type: Flying Partner(s): Henry Other: Carries around a small notebook with a pencil he likes to scribble in. Also can't see a thing without his glasses. You could probably push Jay over just by breathing on him. Name: Litherin Species: Garchomp Trainer: Carmine Gender: Female Nature and Personality: Adamant. Very protective and loyal, she tends to speak little and when she does so she says her words calmly. Litherin can be very hard to persuade when she has a fixed opinion on things and likes familiarity. She sometimes will overthink and make complicated plans which don't work, but this is only when she is under heavy pressure. Ability: Rough Skin Move 1: Earthquake Move 2: Dual Chop Move 3: Stone Edge Move 4: Swords Dance Name: Henry Species: Ninjask Trainer: Jay Gender: Male Nature and Personality: Timid. Although Henry tries to protect Jay, he is about as nervous, as him. He puts on a show though, in order to deter others from hurting both him and Jay. He tries his best to be strong and trains hard, but this determination often crumbles at the sight of a true battle. His battle tactics usually involve a lot of mud and dodging, focusing on avoiding attacks rather than actually doing damage. Ability: Speed Boost Move 1: U-Turn Move 2: Aerial Ace Move 3: Mud Slap Move 4: Protect Dotrus Username: Dotzrus Character Name: Dominic (Dom) Silon Age: 19 Gender: Male Personality: Dom is a relaxed individual who looks at life as something to enjoy. Often making a joke at serious situations, he will volunteer to do the dangerous parts for the rush, even if they are certain to fail. In a group, he likes to try and get everyone involved, and if he doesn't like someone, he ignores them completely. In a battle, he is calculating but willing to take huge risks. Type: Steel Partner(s): Sigma Other: Being adept in magnetics, he tries to create little inventions with metal. He often plays with rattle snake magnets. Name:Sigma Species:Metagross Trainer: Dominic Silon Gender: None Nature and Personality: Docile; Sigma is one who follows orders with little question and is obedient to Dom and Dom alone. Though Sigma doesn't show any emotions, it is often curious with human interactions with other humans and their Pokemon. Sigma has been known to show signs of a bond between it and Dom, but they are rare. Ability: Clear Body Move 1:Meteor Mash Move 2:Zen Headbutt Move 3:Giga Impact Move 4:Iron Defense FractionalPiDay Username: FPD Character Name: Francine Klein Age: 19 Gender: Female Personality: Rather bookish and quiet, Francine likes to know everything about a situation before speaking or attacking - and when she does, she's usually dead on. She also has a surprisingly blunt and sarcastic sense of humour when she deigns to share it with anyone else. Type: Psychic Partner(s): Cecaelia Other: Why is there no appearance field um. Brown lightly freckled skin, straight black hair in two braids in front of her chest, glasses. She's taller than average and yet still manages to look younger than she actually is, giving the impression of an overgrown schoolgirl. Username: FPD Character Name: Alex(is) Ayers Age: 21 Gender: Male Personality: Alex likes to be certain about things. Life is largely a game of chance but he's convinced that it doesn't have to be - which makes things pretty difficult for him. He's had a lot of practice staying collected through anything and everything, so he gets by even though he has no idea how to deal with most other people. Type: Rock Partner(s): Terry Other: Name: Cecaelia/Ceci Species: Malamar Trainer: Francine Gender: Female Nature and Personality: Quirky; Ceci is, among other things, a merciless tease. She has a certain scientific spirit, but the questions she asks are along the lines of "what will happen if I draw this battle out until my opponent is absolutely furious?" or "how many allies can I establish a begrudging and slightly terrified friendship with?", and nothing can stop her from testing these ideas. But her battle style works with Francine's analytic nature and they have a semi-pact not to mess with each other too much. Ability: Contrary Move 1: Psychic Move 2: Foul Play Move 3: Superpower Move 4: Topsy-Turvy Name: Terry Species: Archeops Trainer: Gender: Male Nature and Personality: Rash; Terry is loud and brash and doesn't understand why a genuine opinion or a fact might upset someone. He considers himself something of a strategist, but he always assumes his initial plan will work, discarding them and moving on to a different idea when they don't instead of modifying them to work better. His trainer's only really in control half the time. Ability: Defeatist Move 1: Acrobatics Move 2: Rock Slide Move 3: DragonBreath Move 4: Roost TehUltimateMage Username: TehUltimateMage Character Name: Jacob Miller Age: 21 Gender: Male Personality: Jacob is a young man who struggles to define himself in the world. Uncertain of where he will place his feet, he lets the current of circumstance carry him away instead. He gets scared and shocked easily -- there's no point in hiding it, according to him -- but still he somehow manages to remain optimistic no matter how dire the situation. He puts great value in friendship and bonds between people (and pokemon!), preferring not to hurt people's feelings while trying to remain honest and true to his heart. Regardless of how other people cherish him though, Jacob still feels that he's nothing special -- especially when compared to other Veins. He isn't even sure how or why he had been selected as one of the final eighteen -- what did they want with a normal guy like him? Type: Normal Partner(s): Wigglytuff Other: Jacob is probably the most generic looking individual, one who is easily lost in a crowd. None of his features are particularly remarkable; people struggle to remember what he looks like. They remember his dark brown bedhead or his slight slouch and maybe a slight hint of a stubble, but nothing much else. Username: TehUltimateMage Character Name: Larissa Blanchefleur Age: 18 Gender: Female Personality: Larissa might seem sweet, cute, or maybe even a bit clumsy, but therein lies a trap that would snare unsuspecting victims into doing her favors -- not that they would feel victimized. Larissa is an all around fun person to be around. She spins entertaining tales about her life which may be nothing but lies. She is energetic and lives life one day at a time; she meets challenges that come her way head-on. If she agrees, count on her to put plans into motion no matter how many rules she'll need to break on the way (she is bad at following instructions). Larissa also has a keen eye for guessing others' motivations through their body language -- she uses that information to her advantage. At her core, she is ambitious, narcissistic, and intolerant of things that waste her time. She is a good improviser and constantly lies about many things, from her childhood memories to her favorite breakfast food. Around her, you're never sure what is false and what is true. She likes pretty things, and according to her there's nothing uglier than the truth. Type: Grass Partner(s): Sceptile Other: Part of her bubblegum-pink hair is tied into a pair of twintails to accentuate the cute image she aims to project. Name: San José (or just José) Species: Wigglytuff Trainer: Jacob Gender: M Nature and Personality: Relaxed. Not many things faze José. He has a casual attitude just about everything, and might just start napping if he finds himself bored. Like his trainer, José prefers to avoid confrontation but instead of running away, he chooses to stand his ground. He sings annoying people and pokemon to sleep so they won't bother him. Ability: Cute Charm Move 1: Copycat Move 2: Hyper Voice Move 3: Wish Move 4: Sing Name: King Species: Sceptile Trainer: Larissa Gender: Male Nature and Personality: Rash. King is arrogant and full of himself. He does not consider the consequences of being rude -- why should he? He walks with a swagger and a sneer knowing that not many pokemon could hope to match his speed. His overconfidence makes him reckless. Even when he tastes defeat, he does not like to admit it; he will keep trying until he eventually wins no matter the type disadvantage. To this end, King is not above using cheap-shots; he believes in effectiveness and efficiency in achieving a goal. In some circumstances some might even view him as cruel, but like his trainer, he is merely too ambitious. Ability: Overgrow Move 1: Dig Move 2: Giga Drain Move 3: Leaf Blade Move 4: Leech Seed Techno_Elf Username: Techno_Elf Character Name: Kozuki Enrei Age: 23 Gender: Female Personality: She was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and tries to maintain a stable emotional state, but it’s not easy. Her manic stage, which lasts for days or even weeks, causes her to giggle uncontrollably for prolonged periods of time, and she can get easily distracted. She rarely sleeps during this phase, and she lashes out at people very easily, often saying things that she regrets later. Her depressive episodes will often have her curled up in her room with boxes of chocolate to try to cheer herself up. She rarely eats and spends almost all her time sleeping, causing a large amount of weight loss. She becomes extremely lethargic and unmotivated, having trouble making decisions and often forgetting things. She is extremely cautious towards strangers, and making friends is pretty hard for her. Often times she will act grouchy and mean in order for others to back off and leave her alone. Type: Fighting Partner(s): Rikavi Other: Name: Rikavi Species: Primeape Trainer: Kozuki Enrei Gender: Female Nature and Personality: Rash-- Sp. Atk up, Sp. Def down, likes Dry, dislikes Bitter. Kavi isn't one to look before she leaps. Like all Primeapes, she has a violent, hair-trigger temper. She's extremely wary in unfamiliar waters and will do anything make sure her partner doesn't get hurt. Ability: Anger Point Move 1: Cross Chop Move 2: Thrash Move 3: Close Combat Move 4: Final Gambit DarkShinyLugia Username: DarkShinyLugia Character Name: Katri Veran Age: 20 Gender: Female Personality: Katri is short-tempered and defensive. She's been a loner for most of her life. She has had generally good encounters with Pokemon, and trusts them more than other actual people. Katri is also stubborn, and will do what she believes is right when an order is wrong. Type: Dark Partner(s): Aristomache Other: Poochyena family best pokes. Name: Aristomache (Aristo) Species: Mightyena Trainer: Katri Veran Gender: Female Nature and Personality: The Mightyena is short-tempered and aggressive. She was caught from a pack of her species, and has since then become loyal to Katri and only Katri. Aristo is also a living lie/danger detector, growling when she feels like something isn't right. In battle, she uses a fully offensive strategy, taking the enemy out before herself, knowing that her defenses aren't too strong. She accepts defeat, even when she never got a hit in on a foe. Careful (in pokemon terms) Ability: Quick Feet Move 1: Play Rough Move 2: Sucker Punch Move 3: Ice Fang Move 4: Thunder Fang KoalaNoob: Username: KoalaNoob Character Name: Sherilyn Ainslie Age: 17 Gender: Female Personality: Sherilyn isn't quite sure of what she's doing. The truth is that she's scared out of her wits, being a fugitive and all that, but she tries to act confident. A lie she often tells herself is that the entire ordeal she's going through is fake. She pretends that it's for some organization wanting to make a good story, even though she knows it's just a game to soothe herself. Overall, she's like a scared turtle- stuck inside a shell and too afraid to peek out and face reality. Type: Water Partner(s): Aquisia Other: Name: Aquisia Species: Vaporeon Trainer: Sherilyn Gender: Female Nature and Personality: -Calm- Unlike her trainer, Aquisia isn't afraid of what's happening, and has accepted reality quite well. She's the one that guides Sherilyn through everything, and never falters in being a caring guide. She's also quite down-to-earth, and will be harsh when annoyed. As much as stupidity irritates her, she'll struggle through it and be friendly and helpful as long as it's somebody she cares about. Ability: Water Absorb Move 1: Scald Move 2: Wish Move 3: Protect Move 4: Ice Beam Doctortear Username: Doctortear Character Name: Lucas Ire Age: 23 Gender: Male Personality: "Dork" would be the best term to describe Lucas. He is a very excitable person and becomes immersed in the strangest of things. Once he becomes fascinated with something, he will obsess over it for a great length of time. He is slightly socially awkward in the fact that he assumes everyone is interested in the collection of worthless information he has gathered. It isn't hard to hurt his feelings, making it so that the rougher of folks won't find it easier to befriend fragile Lucas. Not being so great with people, Lucas normally surrounds himself with books as opposed to people. He is a generally friendly to strangers, but isn't afraid to express his opinion which is something that may not be welcomed. Though outwardly joyful most of the time, Lucas can get serious when necessary and can even turn cold in dire situations. Lucas is a man of his word and will fulfill and promise he has made no matter how small, big, right, or wrong said promise is. Type: Bug Partner(s): Valerie Other: Lucas, while curious, isn't a coward. He may find interest in what others see in disgust or horror. It may take some time to rip him away from a rather dark subject if he finds it worth studying. Name: Valerie Species: Volcarona Trainer: Lucas Ire Gender: Female Nature and Personality: With a mild nature, Valerie proves to me a fairly well-mannered creature who minds her business and doesn't push her way into the affairs of others. She is compliant and is willing to work with just about anyone. She isn't the one to judge and often keeps her thoughts to herself. She pays a great amount of attention to detail and notes the smallest of remarks and the slightest movements. Valerie is generally courteous to others, but often does not let herself get close. To the few that know her well, Valerie is a sweet and caring being who would not hesitate to put others in front of herself. Ability: Flame Body Move 1: Fiery Dance Move 2: Bug Buzz Move 3: Fly Move 4: Giga Drain SoiledLove Username: SoiledLove Character Name: Blaise Valentine Age: 20 Gender: Male Personality: Contrary to what his type implies, Blaise is a very apathetic individual. When he was younger, he went through books with a breeze and was called a genius. He had Conduct Disorder and, after devouring psychology books at the age of ten, learned to hide it very well. He's good at acting normal, at pretending he understands others, at acting like someone else entirely. He should've been diagnosed with Anti-Social Personality Disorder (Sociopathy) when he was eighteen, but he was good at being Prince Charming, a very intelligent, relatively rich, gentleman with a bright future in front of him. He's manipulative and cold under that warm, loving exterior and always has a logical, selfish reason for doing something. He never fears anything and almost never panics, however, due to his previous eidetic memory, he's subconsciously deeply uneased by the fact that he cannot remember anything which causes him to be snappish and show the Sociopathical side of him. He hates not understanding and, thus, hates empathy and love, but he does understand many things on a intellectual level. He hates hard work, unless it's to satisfy his own curiosity and therefore portrays himself as laid back and easy-going to the people around him. When in battle, always goes for the offensive and quick, he's vicious and efficient. Type: Fire Partner(s): Seraphim Other: Prefers science to actual battling. While he doesn't have a passion for anything, does know a lot about psychology and uses that when training his Pokemon and battling others. Username: SL Character Name: Rosalie Winterbell, "Poison Rose" or, "Sweet Deathtrap" Age: 16 Gender: Female Personality: Rosalie is, despite her various nicknames (given to her by her brothers and friends as a joke), a very sweet girl. She's naive and innocent and always wanting to cheer people up, smiling to the best of her abilities through everything. She cries easily and is a bit of a crybaby as well as being a little spoiled. However, her sweet demeanor can make anyone bewitched. The only problem is that she loves cooking. Why is that a problem? Because any food that is prepared by Rosalie's hands because completely inedible. Somehow, she manages to poison or drug her cooking, which doesn't actually look bad at all, unintentionally. Since she loves getting what she wants and is a sucker for compliments, she always cries and is unhappy when people reject her cooking. She's sad because of this. However, she loves poison types because they like her cooking! Although she is usually completely oblivious, she isn't totally stupid, and knows that she can use her cooking as a weapon. She can also read the atmosphere quite well, knowing when someone is sad or wouldn't appreciate her cheer. Secretly, she's a natural sadist, but she doesn't know that. Type: Poison Partner(s): Trandafir Other: Symptoms of being near to/coming into contact with Rosalie's cooking: fainting, vomiting, nausea, headaches, cold chills, fevers, indigestion, stomach aches, or whatever the effect of the drug she poisoned it with (not on purpose, of course) Name: Seraphim Species: Charizard Trainer: Blaise Valentine Gender: Male Nature and Personality: Battle Nature: Lonely. Seraphim is a generally aloof and quiet Pokemon, and gets aggressive and annoyed easily when crowded. The only person he stands is his trainer and and other Pokemon belonging to his trainer. He looks down on most other Pokemon and takes advantage of his looks and size to cause psychological effects on other Pokemon. Due to Blaise's influence, he's very intelligent as well and uses psychology to his advantage. Ability: Blaze Move 1: Heat Wave Move 2: Outrage (Breeding) Move 3: Air Slash Move 4: Flamethrower Name: Trandafir Species: Roserade Trainer: Rosalie Gender: Male Nature and Personality: Nature: Mild. Trandafir is a gentle Pokemon who usually is calm and playful around others. He enjoys socializing and is a bit of a pacifist. However, he's also fiercely protective and would kill to protect his trainer and friends. Ability: Poison Point Move 1: Grasswhistle Move 2: Toxic Spikes Move 3: Leaf Storm Move 4: Magical Leaf RaptorOfDragons Username: RoD Character Name: Theodore 'Theo' Smith Age: 21 Gender: male Personality: mysterious and queit, it's hard sometimes to think what Theo is thinking. Most of the time, he scaes people since he is so quiet and tends to sneak up on people, even if he doesn't mean it Type: Ghost Partner(s): Myst Other: I'm horrible with descriptions Username: RoD Character Name: Zackary 'Zack' Johnson Age: 19 Gender: Male Personality: Zack can hardly keep still when it comes to paying attention. He is very hyperactive and highly talkative. He has a very small attention span when someone else is talking and prefers not to pay attention. He can be extremely goofy even though he doesn't really notice it and completely forgets the task at hand due to his short attention span Type: Electric Partner(s): Whiskers Other: Careful not to give him anything that will make him hyper Name: Myst Species: Banette Trainer: Theodore Smith Gender: Female Nature and Personality: Myst is really brave when protecting her trainer. She will never once give up the fight until she faints. She was seperated from her original owner a few months before she met Theo. When she saw how special he was, she decided to join him and be forever loyal to him. -Brave Nature- Ability: Insomnia Move 1: Shadow Ball Move 2: Sucker Punch Move 3: Calm Mind Move 4: Double Team Name: Whiskers Species: Dedenne Trainer: Zack Gender: Female Nature and Personality: -Calm Nature- Whiskers is the complete opposite from Zack with her calm and cool personality, Whiskers seem to take everything in with a clear conscience and can be extremely intelligent because of this. She can be quite harsh to her owner as she doesn't tolerate his limited attention span, but she will cut him some slack every now and then Ability: Pickup Move 1: Play Rough Move 2: Thunderbolt Move 3: Rain Dance Move 4: Thunder Edited September 9, 2014 by MasterWeavile898 Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Current Events and Instructions: Jacob and Theo should continue on with Hilda. They will go meet up with Roxie, Kozuki, and Katri once that interaction is ready Kozuki and Katri should stick to Roxie, they'll be meeting up with Hilda's group as soon as we hit chapter 2 Lucas should follow Detective Jenson out of the forest Dom should respond, or just kind of stare blankly, at Daniel before continuing to try to find an exit Sherilyn and Carmine should follow Iris's lead, and she'll likely explain the situation to them if they ask Francine should either find some manner to calm Dazzle down/force her down or just cower and let Nurse Truth handle it. Then be ready to leave Larissa and Blaise should awake handcuffed across a table from each other in Striaton City's restaurant, under guard by seven officers. No worries, they're weak minded mooks. Have a field day with them after having some whispered back-and-forth ^^ Zack should awake on the inside of a cave-in, Alex awake and likely confused or in shock on the other side. The last thing he should remember is the cave-in happening Rosalie will begin in Black City, she should wake inside an office building. She'll be duck taped to a chair in a cubicle and gagged with the same duck tape. There will be a cowering sweaty office worker across from him, threatening to turn him in shakily. Though he won't, because he's too afraid of what such a highly wanted criminal might do to him or his family if he makes them mad. He watches too much TV Jay should follow Sparrow's lead Be certain to include the following aspects of your character's appearance in your intro: Eye color Hair color and length Approximate height Skin color Body type Apparel Edited September 7, 2014 by MasterWeavile898 Share this post Link to post

Name: Daniel Quinn Age: 19 Gender: Male Type: Fairy Partner(s): Ariadne Personality: Daniel is a loudmouth who likes to be the center of attention. He's flamboyant and excitable, never really staying still. He wears flashy clothing to draw attention, often picking gaudy pinks and greens as part of his outfits. And oft dyes his mass of red curls hot pink for this same reason. He enjoys playing pranks on people, even if it means getting them hurt. And is carefree to the point that he would joke about his own death while it was happening. Pokemon: Name: Ariadne Species: Whimsicott Trainer: Daniel Gender: Female Nature and Personality: Impish Ability: Prankster Move 1: Protect Move 2: Leech Seed Move 3: Toxic Move 4: Encore Name: Apache Species: Chatot Gender: Male Nature and Personality: Hasty.

But generally hides this fact and simply repeats what's been said to him Ability: Tangled Feet Move 1: Chatter Move 2: Thief Move 3: Taunt Move 4: Boomburst Gym Leaders: These will be characters from the main games, thus they shouldn't need sheets. Will be added as they appear in the RP Iris, Dragon, Opelucid City. Wears her hair shorter and in a bun, generally looks aged and tired Hilda, Ground, Driftveil City. Pretty much the same as BW, just a bit older (Protag version, not NPC) Elesa, Electric, Nimbasa City. Like BW2, but she's had kids Cilan, Grass, Striaton City. Same as BW2, maybe a bit shorter Cress, Water, Icirrus. As above, but his hair is also a bit longer Roxie, Poison, Virbank. She's a lot more conservative in her dress now. She's not as a big a rock star and has thus moved further into the role of Gym Leader. Not that she can't still shred a guitar when she wants to Cheren, Normal, Nacrene. Like BW2, but he's got some grey hairs from stressing out a lot Edited September 7, 2014 by MasterWeavile898 Share this post Link to post

Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) I would like to claim dragon type if possible. Will get forms up a little later. Edit: Forms are here now. Username: Silverphoenixx Character Name: Carmine Epika Age: 16 Gender: Female Personality: Carmine is cautious around strangers and acts differently based on emotions. She is influenced heavily by her emotions in her actions. When not feeling much emotion, she tends to be immature and sarcastic to people she knows. A dislike of strangers leads to her avoiding crowds and too much attention. Type: Dragon Partner(s): Litherin Other: I have trouble making short paragraphs on things. Name: Litherin Species: Garchomp Trainer: Carmine Gender: Female Nature and Personality: Adamant. Very protective and loyal, she tends to speak little and when she does so she says her words calmly. Litherin can be very hard to persuade when she has a fixed opinion on things and likes familiarity. She sometimes will overthink and make complicated plans which don't work, but this is only when she is under heavy pressure. Ability: Rough Skin Move 1: Earthquake Move 2: Dual Chop Move 3: Stone Edge Move 4: Swords Dance Edited August 18, 2014 by Silverphoenixx Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 Following Silver, I would claim steel, I'm on a phone so forms later, but I'm okay if someone beats me. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 All claimed. I'll give you some time to get sheets up. I'd say, three days or I'll free your type back up and you can't claim another without a sheet. Sound fair? Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 I might join as one of the lesser-used types (like poison or bug), but I've been a bit busy recently so don't count on it. My question is: are there any physical changes to the person hooked up to the Vein system? Or do they simply gain moves, senses and reflexes? Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Username: DarkShinyLugia Character Name: Katri Veran Age: 20 Gender: Female Personality: Katri is short-tempered and defensive. She's been a loner for most of her life. She has had generally good encounters with Pokemon, and trusts them more than other actual people. Katri is also stubborn, and will do what she believes is right when an order is wrong. Type: Dark Partner(s): Aristomache Other: Poochyena family best pokes. Name: Aristomache (Aristo) Species: Mightyena Trainer: Katri Veran Gender: Female Nature and Personality: The Mightyena is short-tempered and aggressive. She was caught from a pack of her species, and has since then become loyal to Katri and only Katri. Aristo is also a living lie/danger detector, growling when she feels like something isn't right. In battle, she uses a fully offensive strategy, taking the enemy out before herself, knowing that her defenses aren't too strong. She accepts defeat, even when she never got a hit in on a foe. Careful (in pokemon terms) Ability: Quick Feet Move 1: Play Rough Move 2: Sucker Punch Move 3: Ice Fang Move 4: Thunder Fang (EDIT: note to self- lrn2reed) (EDIT2: IT IS DONE! *flops*) (EDIT3: Almost write "wrogn". This is not NateAndDookie, mind! *slaps self*) (EDIT4: Smogon confirmed.) Edited August 18, 2014 by DarkShinyLugia Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) I might join as one of the lesser-used types (like poison or bug), but I've been a bit busy recently so don't count on it. My question is: are there any physical changes to the person hooked up to the Vein system? Or do they simply gain moves, senses and reflexes? No physical changes unless a move causes it. Which is to say, Leaf blade will cause their arm to glow green and pointy like Sceptile in the anime when they use it. Or Fire Punch will light their fist on fire EDIT: DSL, when I said short summary, I didn't mean two half sentences. Would you mind extending it so it's at least a paragraph? Also, list partners by name, not species, please. That way there won't be confusion if there's two Pokemon of the same species Edited August 17, 2014 by MasterWeavile898 Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 Why are there authorities hunting them down? And wouldn't it be way simpler for New Plasma to keep their experiments around instead of letting them escape into the world (or is this part of some larger nefarious plan)? Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 I don't want to reveal the former because I intend it to be a plot point The latter is, as you guessed, a larger nefarious plan Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Hm. It kind of sucks that a Flying Vein would only be able to fly during wing-based moves. I also assume the type matchups would work as normal -- the Fire Vein would be weak to water, for instance. IMO Normal-type's got the best deal: look at the number of pokemon and all the (gimmicky) moves! @Pi: They probably destroyed some stuff and the memory was conveniently erased using amnesia.

Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Username: shadow_claw Character Name: Jet Cylian Age: 27 Gender: Male Personality: Jet's a rather stubborn person, and is hard to sway once decided. He's quick to anger and can get snappy and rude for no reason. This makes him a moderately secluded and introverted person, with a small number of people he calls friends. Although most consider him odd, he's pretty content with being alone. He doesn't waste his time with small talk, and usually talking in general. If he speaks, it's usually something important. Type: Flying Partner(s): Braviary Other: Name: Rohuis (Row-is) Species: Braviary Trainer: Jet Gender: Male Nature and Personality: A loyal and somewhat standoffish pokemon, Rohuis is always by his trainer's side. He is harshly protective of his trainer and smaller pokemon he takes a liking to. Battle personality is Adamant. Ability: Keen Eye Move 1: Brave Bird Move 2: Crush claws Move 3: Sky Drop Move 4: Wing attack Can Rohuis be shiny? Edited August 17, 2014 by shadow_claw Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 Yeah, that's pretty much exactly why I have it like that. Flying/levitating/etc Pokemon tend to have a bit of an unfair advantage in the anime Also, Normal does have a very large variety to it, but I think Flying will actually be best off. You can use your wing-based attacks as more than attacks after all, they can be used for dodging Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 Ah I see. I was going to bring up my Pokemon-universe evil scientists but I'm no good at huge secret plots. (Dramatic sigh because I only ever got to use Feldspath in a single RP and it died a long time ago) I'd reserve but it usually takes me like a decade to make characters so I'll just wait Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Shadow, I'd like to ask you to extend your personalities a bit as well. As I said to DSL, about a paragraph would be nice. I'll accept Rohuis as-is, but Jet definitely needs extended And if you intend to join, Pi, don't take too long, I won't be keeping sign-ups open endlessly Edited August 17, 2014 by MasterWeavile898 Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2014 There we are~ Is that enough description, or do I need more? Share this post Link to post
Posted August 18, 2014 (edited) Username: Dotzrus Character Name: Dominic (Dom) Silon Age: 19 Gender: Male Personality: Dom is a relaxed individual who looks at life as something to enjoy. Often making a joke at serious situations, he will volunteer to do the dangerous parts for the rush, even if they are certain to fail. In a group, he likes to try and get everyone involved, and if he doesn't like someone, he ignores them completely. In a battle, he is calculating but willing to take huge risks. Type: Steel Partner(s): Sigma Other: Being adept in magnetics, he tries to create little inventions with metal. He often plays with rattle snake magnets. Name:Sigma Species:Metagross Trainer: Dominic Silon Gender: None Nature and Personality: Docile; Sigma is one who follows orders with little question and is obedient to Dom and Dom alone. Though Sigma doesn't show any emotions, it is often curious with human interactions with other humans and their Pokemon. Sigma has been known to show signs of a bond between it and Dom, but they are rare. Ability: Clear Body Move 1:Meteor Mash Move 2:Zen Headbutt Move 3:Giga Impact Move 4:Iron Defense Edited August 18, 2014 by Dotzrus Share this post Link to post
Posted August 18, 2014 Can I reserve Ghost-type real quick? I gotta go catch a flight but I'll be working on forms. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 18, 2014 (edited) I'm gonna have to say no to sensing magnetic waves, at least when he's not actively connected to Sigma. Other than that, accepted. I'll add you to the accepted characters as soon as I can copy/paste Ghost is reserved for you, Techno As a side note: beyond the characters already in progress, I will not be accepting any more Adamant Pokemon. At least not until we have a greater variety of natures Edited August 18, 2014 by MasterWeavile898 Share this post Link to post
