The World of Pokemon (Interest Check/Still Recruiting)

[Irishfire87]

This is a sandbox Pokemon RP.  Everyone starts out in Pallet town and works their way through the 8 gyms.  Once someone is finished they can move onto the next generation area.  This means Kanto to Johto and continuing on.  Everyone starts out with a different starting Pokemon.  This is non-CANON meaning you can't use any characters from the show.

The rules are as follows.

1.  This is one of the most important rules:  Even though this will be in NC:  Exotic-Freeform, follow other people's O/Os.
2.  Only one character per Account.
3.  Please post at least once a week and let people know how often you figure you can post before jumping in with them.
4.  Please post at least a paragraph.
5.  Listen to the GM
6.  Respect other people's wishes
7.  Please fill out the character sheet and post it in this topic
8.  Encountering Pokémon.  This is like the tv show in that they are easy to find if they are a common pokemon.  You can just rp your own encounter with regular pokemon.
9.  Random Encounters.  If you want a random encounter PM me and I'll randomize it for you.  Random encounters can lead to rare and even legendary Pokémon.  If you feel confident about being able to capture a legendary this is the that you do it as I have a probability application that can randomize things really well.
10.  Your pokemon don't have to forget moves.  I've always found that the 4 move thing was a peeve of mine.


A thread will be made for this topic once two other people fill out character sheets.

Character Name:  Garfield Hughes

Character Age:  17

History:  Garfield, Gar to his friends, grew up in the Hoenn region. He lived with his single mother and his several younger siblings, and so he never really had much time to do much with pokemon before that. He spent most of his time helping raise his sisters and brother and the only pokemon he had was a Makuhita that his uncle had brought him from Dewford town. He spent a lot of time cooking and cleaning up after the young ones, and playing sports and games with them. He also used the Makuhita to catch some pokemon for them, but when he was 17, his mother, who at that point spent most of her time working at the Devon Corporation building, was proposed to by a co-worker she had been seeing and the family was going to be moved into a better house. Knowing that they would be taken care of now that they had two parents, Gar's mom told him he could go pursue his dream to be a pokemon trainer. His mother's fiance suggested that he should start in Kanto and gave him a special package from Devon Corp. to take to Professor Oak in Pallet Town. He gave his youngest sister, who was really sad to see him leave, his Makuhita to keep right before leaving for Pallet Town.

Character Name:  Arron Shaw

Character Age: 18

History:  Arron was born and raised in Pallet town and never got the chance to travel as a kid. He didn't see the world and really never made any friends. His parents did their best to raise him like a normal child and home school him. But with few kids his age around they noticed he kept to himself alot when placed in the rare situations where he could spend time with kids his age.

When he turned ten he was attacked by a small pack of Houndoom's after wandering to far into the tall grass in Pallet town. Luckily a single Growlithe came to his rescue and fought off one of the Houndoom's before his parents came to his rescue. They let him keep the Growlithe so long as he took care of it. He raised it as his own until the day he left Pallet town and wears Shane's pokeball around his neck, knowing soon his quest to be a Pokemon master...

Character Name:   Fauna Cropper

Character Age:   19

History:   Fauna was born to wealthy parents in Celadon City. The unfortunate thing about parents with well-paid jobs was that they were rarely ever around. Her and her younger brother were pretty much neglected most of their lives. She grew up fast but not without getting into trouble. During her early teens, she ran with bad crowds and did stupid things. It was her brother that helped her clean up her life. Now an opportunity to become a pokemon trainer has popped up and she is not one to waste opportunities. So she heads to Pallet Town, hoping to make a better life for herself, one where she can save her brother from a life of neglect.

Character Name:  Kira Black
Character Age: 18   
History:  Kira had always loved and adored Pokémon specifically psychic Pokémon.  Growing up she always loved to go to the Saffron city Gym and watch the trainers train.  She was always amazed at how well the trainer worked together with little effort like they were as one. 
By the time she was 13 she had been around the gym so much some of the trainers started teaching her about taking care of and raising Pokémon and she quickly became involved in helping trainers to make sure there Pokémon stayed healthy and even began to volunteer at the Pokémon center to learn even more about caring for the creatures that she loved so much.
Recently though she has set out to start her own Journey as a trainer. Equipped with the knowledge she has learned over the past 5 years  Kira is confident she can become one of the best trainers ever and possibly one day lead her own gym and teach someone like she was taught.

[Batman4560]

Just so you know, you're pic isn't showing up.

[Chaosfox]

I don't know what to do then because i am seeing it just fine >.<

[Batman4560]

Maybe its just me.... Idk.

[Chaosfox]

If any one else says anything I will try and figure out something else.

[Zekromnomnom]

It isn't displaying properly for me, either. I've had the trouble myself. Don't remember how I fixed it.

[Chun Chun Boom]

Yeah, the picture isn't showing up for me either.

[Chaosfox]

Well if any one has any suggestions that would help me.

[Irishfire87]

The app looks fine Chaosfox, welcome to the RP.  I would have a problem with the image if it wasn't for the fact that it is a face claim that people can look up if they are really curious.

Forty, I don't mind the arm if it is ONLY for Beldum.  Is that the case?

[Baalborn87]

I'd like to add my interest in this. Though I haven't had much experience since Pokemon gold, and The 1st movie. So I,like my character will be going into this new to gen 2 pokemon onwards.

I hope thats OK.
