Whereas I see a group of mostly woman as a prime chance for lots and lots of smut.  :P
Anyway, last question: has anyone already called a region/is it first come first serve?
(If so, I call Kalos/Gen 6!)

Sure some cobe found here and there, so long as our kind gm doesn't find any too distracting.

Can everyone make sure you add the four moves each of your pokemon know. That way we don't have every pokemon firing off every attack and confusing things (please note that moves that are made as powerups or dampners as well as things like fly and surf won't be necessary)

Modified my charachter sheet to include this information.

azzmeister89

Awesome, I have also added the required information.

Not to worry about any smut. I'll be adding a thread for private encounters.... which reminds me, should probably ask you all to put down your characters sexuality 😜

Oh, and I assume that, as champions, we do have access to a mega?

azzmeister89

Yes, I'm restricting it to one each though, you can submit your ideas if you want it for a pokemon who doesn't have one officially but we have plenty of time before then. I don't plan on using Mega's until a little further into the game.

Strongly considering this. It's between this one and the Poke Academy RP. The only obstacle is time. I have work, binge watching pokemon, gaming and two RPs to balance.

But if I can work out a way to fit this in, I have a bug pokemon Champion concept I want to use.

What would the other players be more interested in? A player taking up the role of the professor, or AZ?

pdragon

Since AZ's role in the story is long done, and I personally don't care for cannon characters in rps, I'd personally say professor.

So Azz, looking through the apps I am assuming Unova and Kalos are up for grabs? And also assuming regions like Ferrom from console games are not available?

Just need to know what's available for my character.

Also, not sure I understand the Pokemon exclusive rule, as Pokemon are not inherently exclusive to the region and generation they are introduced. Such as you can find Bellsprout and Geodude(Gen 1 Mon) in Johto. (Gen 2)

I interpreted it as pokemon that are found in that game's region. Like I just went on bulbapedia and looked up the main pokedex from ruby/sapphire and used that as my pool to pick from.

A very bare outline but hopefully good enough to reserve a spot. I need to do a little more researching and brainstorming for the team and bio though.

WIP
Name: Daniel Crawler

Origin: Unova

Age: 19

Physical Description:


Personality: Crawler is rash, confident and a center for attention. Battling by instinct and improvisation more than anything else, which surprisingly works out for him most of the time. But as a result it's also a weakness, one which can land his smart mouth in trouble as often as it helps. Towards Pokemon, Crawler is very empathetic, especially towards Pokemon considered weak or made fun of for some other trait. In all, Crawler is a good natured person with a short supply of patience. As he always has to keep moving forward.

Biography: Daniel was born in Nacrene City to parents who were never Pokemon trainers. His mother was an aspiring artist, while his father ran a Pokemart. Daniel however had big dreams of being the Unova champion. The mild mannered boy after turning ten, purchased a Pokeball with his allowance from his father, then journeyed into Pinwheel Forest to catch his first Pokemon. There, he encountered a Venipede. Throwing his new Pokeball, he managed to catch the weak bug type. However, Daniel was estatic, he quickly ran back home to show his friends and fellow rookie trainers. But upon seeing his new Pokemon he and Venipede were immediately laughed at. His peers made fun of him and his Pokemon, calling them both weak.

Crawler challenged the ringleader to a battle. And lost. Then he lost his next battle then his next one and the one after. After losing time and again. Crawler believed that he and Venipede were losing because he was too soft on it. So he became cold and hard on Venipede. Driving it harder and harder. Venipede however never gave up. And tried it's hardest. Challenging his rival to another battle, Crawler lost again. With all his built up frustration Daniel abandoned Venipede in the forest, ashamed of both himself and his Pokemon. As he tried to catch another Pokemon. But running into a wild Pokemon which attacked him, Venipede appeared and defended him. Venipede however was no match, but seeing Venipede fight so hard for him. Crawler realized that he was wrong all along. Rushing Venipede to the Pokemon Center it was there that Daniel swore to Venipede. That they would both work as long and hard as it took to earn the respect from their peers. Not just for themselves, but all bug pokemon and their trainers called weak. That they would become a inspiration for others to follow their dreams. By becoming Champion of Unova.

They would do it together.

Naming Venipede 'Crawlerpede' to represent their new connection and bond as partners. Crawler embarked on his journey, choosing to specialize in Bug Pokemon. Eventually acquiring a team of powerful bug types he bonded with as partners and family. Crawlerpede travelled by his side, almost never going inside of his Pokeball. A promise that Crawler made to it so that they would always be within sight of each other. After six years of travelling, training and battling he challenged the Unova League. He made it to the finals before losing to the current Champion. Unphased, Daniel trained for another year and challenged the League again, this time winning. Now, Crawler and his team are renowned not only among the best bug type specialist. But numbered in among the best trainers in the world.

Team:
-Scolipede 'Crawlerpede': Megahorn, Toxic, Venoshock, Rollout
-Galvantula 'Arachnebolt': Electroweb, Thunder Wave, Spider Web, Thunder
-Durant 'Ironant': X-Scissor, Iron Defense, Iron Head, Flash Cannon
-Volcarona 'Pyromoth': Flare Blitz, Silver Wind, Hurricane, Fiery Dance

There can be more than one trainer from each region, we have two from Kanto region already and I'm currently waiting on the profile of a second Unova player, all we are missing is someone from Kalos and we will have all six generations.

Well, I think I will stick with Unova as I am almost done gathering the information I need to finish my app. Only hope Crawler doesn't bug anyone? ;D

I can play Kalos (potentially) as I'm going through my Pokemon United pdf now.

My main question is how much system is in play? As the OP makes this game seem very freeform, which I'd be less interested in.

I changed up terry a bit since Crawler kinda took the brash brawler archtype, along with several of my pokemon and my color scheme :P
Name: Terry

Origin: Unova, Castelia City
Age: 22
Sexuality: Bisexual
Theme Song: Cage the Elephant - No Place for a Hero

Description:
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide

Personality: Terry is a cunning trainer who prefers to win by superior strategy and superb tactical decisions. He and his pokemon are not afraid to fight dirty and take any advantage they can get, and during his stint as champion many a powerful challenger found that they had victory snatched from thier grasp when they thought the battle was almost over. He is prone to listening more than he speaks, though he can be very loquacious and is quite the showman when he has an audience. He dislikes egotistical people and will go out of his way to humble the proud and bring down the mighty.Terry has a great deal of empathy for other people and for pokemon, and all of his Pokemon are female as he seems to attract ladies of all kinds, be they human or pokemon. He considers his pokemon associates and partners, and feels that it is his duty to represent and lead them well. Now that he is no longer Champion and may never be again, he is searching for something new to do with his life.

Biography: Terry rarely speaks of his life before embarking on his journey as a pokemon trainer, but what is known is that he seems to come from Castelia City. In truth, Terry began as the leader and mastermind of a gang of thieves and after he concocted a plan to steal rare artifacts from a ship on the city docks, and when they got the crates of stolen goods back to their hideout the other gang members took all the best and rarest spoils and fled after tipping off the police, leaving terry to take the fall and leaving behind only a strange and seemingly-worthless golden mask as evidence to ensure he'd be blamed for the crime. Fortunately, the ignorant criminals did not realize the strange mask was actually a pokemon - a Yamask that had mistakenly been put in with the stolen goods - and with the help of his new pokemon, terry fled before he could be captured and decided then and there to give up crime and embark on a career as a pokemon trainer, where he eventually battled his way to the Pokemon League and served a brief stint as the regions Champion before his criminal past was revealed and he was forced to give up his title.

I'm afraid this is a freeform game. I put in a few small conditions for dictating the battles between players but I'm mostly putting stock in everyone's raping and common sense.

I guess I missed this, there is a link to a pdf somewhere?

It's freeform :P though if you are a pokemon fan and like system games, check out Pokemon Tabletop united. A google search will get you the pdf (Actually, i saw the title and thought it was a PTU game at first, too, but i don't mind freeform either and it still looks fun - so here i am).

Edit: Updated and prettied up terry's sheet, added some personality details to differentiate from the other characters a bit more, and gave Cofagrigus a Mega Evolution!

azzmeister89

Ah I do apologies if the name gave everyone the wrong impression.

This game is freeform but I hope you all plan to stick around.

RPG33K

I can see Crawler hitting on AJ while he is cross dressed, then discover he is actually a boy. Crawler would then be very confused about his sexuality the rest of the RP. While being teased about it by AJ. -Nods-

As for Terry, Crawlers overconfident bordering on egotistical attitude would likely cause a battle fairly quick.


Question, I would rather not invent a Mega. Would you mind if Crawler and Scolipede were capable of the same evolution that Ash and Greninja are capable of in the XY Series? Where Crawler and Scolipede can physically link themselves where Crawler sees and experiences everything Scolipede does?

It also carries a high risk to the trainer as well. As he feels the same pain of his Pokemon and is exhausted after, so it's not too OP.

Hmmm interesting idea, I havnt actually watched any of the x y season myself.

The party of the game where mega evolution comes in is fairly far off so do you mind if we discuss it in pm? I would like to get a better understanding of it before I agree to anything.

Sure, I will detail what I know about it in PM.
