The New Johto Journeys! [P][AD][C][Pw]
Steel Winters:
New Johto JourneysNoteThis series is based off of the "Pokemon Adventures" Manga series, and not anything from the TV show or the VideogamesThe Story:
Shortly after the Masked Man's defeat, a new trainer, Steel sets out on his journey through the Johto region with Kapp (Psyduck) and Spyke (Togepi). The region as a whole has been just started settling down from the first revival of Team Rocket. People are distressed by the events in the Hoenn region that're causing the sea levels to rise quickly, and earthquakes to shake the southwestern border of Johto. Steel's goal is to take on all of the Johto gyms and defeat the Pokemon League before the year's end.
Setting:
The story takes place in the Johto Region, starting in Goldenrod City. It takes place during the Ruby and Sapphire chapter of Pokemon Adventures, after the events of the Crystal Chapter. Your characters will follow Steel, a lanky 13 year old just starting his journey through the world of Pokemon. They will encounter old members of Team Rocket that refuse to give up on their antiquated goals, and they may encounter other dangers in their travels.
( If this goes well, there's a possibility that they'll travel to the Kanto region during the Fire Red/Leaf Green chapter, and Hoenn during the Emerald Chapter )

Rules:
Your characters may not be too powerful, and their teams should start with a maximum of three pokemon below level 20. I (GM) will decide upon events such as evolution, success in battle, capturing, and other things. Posts should be limited to your responses and your actions, not how others will react to your actions. Newly caught pokemon should have limitations, and pokemon that are high in level will not obey commands. Your character's actions and the actions of your pokemon are seperate, and the actions of pokemon should be decided by the GM, their nature, and maybe the convenient roll of a D20.
Notes:
All characters can have a Pokegear, but Pokedexes have to be earned through Roleplaying as they are rare and only given out by Pokemon Professors. Comic Relief may be involved. If you have read Pokemon Adventures, you would know that characters can have special abilities. Psychic Pokemon trainers could have some limited telekinesis and telepathy. Some could have Healing abilities like Yellow from the Pokemon Adventures series. Please do not go overboard with the powers, as it is not the main theme of this thread. Your Pokemon team should not be overpowered and it definately should not include any legendary Pokemon.
sans the skeleton:
(( I've never read the series, though I'm planning to sign up if that's alright. Mind if I reserve a spot? I'm currently in a lesson at school. so hardcore ))
(( Work in progress! ))
Name: Victoria "Vercha" Scrivenor
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Personality:
Appearance: When she's not in costume, Vercha looks rather ordinary. She stands at a rather unimpressive 5'1" in height, with a natural hair color of a mousy brown. Her skin is quite pale and is decorated with freckles over a good deal of her body. Vercha often wears darker clothing, although she favors practical clothing outside of contests.
Other: Her original 'starter' pokemon, Quilava, wasn't actually her pokemon. It was loaned to her by her brother so she could obtain her own Pokemon in the Violet tower. Her nickname "Vercha" came from someone who kept mispronouncing her name. No, she doesn't know why either. She is primarily a travelling trainer who challenges gyms, although she hopes to begin contests with her pokemon once she's gone far enough. She has the unique ability to copy the traits of her own pokemon, but only very briefly - such as being able to phase through walls as her Ghastly can, teleport such as her abra, and, er... well, she hasn't really found out what she gets from Eevee. All the same, the abilities are used only very briefly as they are quite draining, and she's found that she can only do it with her own pokemon.
Equipment: 5x Pokeballs
1x Pokegear
10x Potions
5x Full Heals
1x PAIR OF RUNNING SHOES
Team:
* Grim - Gastly - Male - Impish - Vercha's oldest pokemon. Never really in his pokeball, so he's usually floating by Vercha's head. Obtained at the Violet Tower. Known moves - Hypnosis, Lick, Mean Look, Haze. Vercha pretty much knows Gastly inside out, with the exception of 'Haze'.
* Aki - Abra - Male - Timid - Knows Ice Punch thanks to breeding. Given as an egg for her birthday. Rather timid around strangers outside of battle, although pretty calm inside of battle. Known moves - Ice Punch, Teleport. Almost ready to evolve.
* Honey - Eevee - Female - Modest - Vercha is hoping she'll evolve into an Espeon or Vaporeon for contests. Possibly knows iron tail by a TM, though still needs practice to properly use it. Known moves - Tackle, Iron Tail. Vercha's most recently obtained pokemon, although this pokemon wasn't caught, either. Vercha had found Honey abandoned with her pokeball at a pokemon center, and had 'adopted' her henceforth.

((The two above are accepted, if any others would like to join in just post OOCly and I'll try to fit you in at a later time))
((Everyone above has been Accepted. Applications are now closed. Except for Lulu and the one Lugia guy I PMed, you know who you are! You two can make characters.))
(( Roleplaying begins now, any Out-Of-Character text should be enclosed in parenthesis "(...)" ))
Steel, a lanky, dark-haired boy in a red jacket runs out of the front door of a small Goldenrod City apartment building, a wide grin on his face. He passes by several shops and such before stopping by the front of the Goldenrod Gym, which is, according to the man out front, closed with Whitney training out on Route 35. Steel sighs in disdain and looks around at the crowd of disappointed faces around him.
Skyler and Blazer:
Name: Skyler Rilke
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Personality: Skyler is a rather odd character. He is fond of eating, especially spicy foods, yet maintains his slim physique due to an overactive metabolism and his constant, sometimes annoying level of thinking. He likes to think a lot and read a lot, but his behavior wouldn't necessarily show this. He is hyperactive and forgets to think about how his actions will effect others around him. But he is a kindhearted boy, only becoming mean when he feels the need to defend himself, on a personal level, or to protect his friends. He cares very deeply for his Pokemon, especially his first, a Quilava named Blazer. He got Blazer as a Cyndaquil from his mom as a birthday gift so he could begin his journey. Due to his fondness of his Pokemon and his ease at communicating with them - a skill that he can't apply to relationships with people for some reason - he is an incredibly adept battler, having gotten his badges from Falkner and Bugsy in very short periods of time. While he likes to collect pokemon, and shows them all affection deserving of pets, he is somewhat choosy as to the pokemon he will let on his battling team. He seems to know which pokemon have the characteristics (such as nature, movesets, and IVs) that he needs based off of meeting them. And thus, when he does talk about pokemon, he can list wide ranges of information about them just from an inspection of their behavior.
Appearance: Skyler is a very tall 14 year old, being around 5'8". He has rough, spiky black hair, and a slight tan due to his constant working outside. He is very lanky, although he prefers the term slender, as he is a healthy sort of lean. He wears a black jacket with a red shirt underneath, and white running shoes. He has a pokeball around his neck. Many suspect there is a pokemon inside of it, as he gets very scared when he loses it. He says that if it were to fall into the wrong hands, the unspeakable would occur. As such, he doesn't want anyone to touch it.He has learned a great deal about pokeballs so he could lock it, and only he can unlock it. He also has a long scar along his chest, as well as a smaller one on his left cheek. He hints that the pokeball that he keeps locked all the time might be related to it. He also has a greyish-blue backpack which he carries round various items such as potions, food, toys, and supplies for catching pokemon.
Other: His special ability could thus be classified as something akin to N's, although he has yet meet N. A big difference in the two, however, this that Skyler can synch minds with his pokemon in battle, giving them commands very fluidly. Skyler is also vastly interested in using astronomy as a means of navigation as well as time telling. Skyler also is somewhat technologically savvy, as he knows the inner workings of a pokeball enough to have locked one. He seems to be able to learn vast, and has a very large store of knowledge, but he lacks in his ability to communicate with people properly.
Equipment:
1x Backpack
10x Pokeballs
6x Super Potions
12x Potions
6x Revives
1x Pokegear
Team:
* "Blazer" Quilava - Male - Rash - Blazer was Skyler's first Pokemon he befriended. Blazer and Skyler and Inseparable. They are the best of friends, having been through thick and thin making al the way from their little residence on the outskirts of New Bark Town, all the way to Goldenrod City. Blazer is one of Skyler's strongest pokemon - although the pool isn't too big considering he only has three pokemon upon reaching Goldenbark), know very powerful moves capable of felling some of the strongest opponents. He is level 20 upon reaching Goldenbark.
* "Brainiac" Slowpoke - Female - Calm - Brainiac was Skyler's second caught Pokemon, and his third overall. Skyler called her Brainiac because when Team Rocket took over Slowpoke Well, she was very crafty in helping him rid the well of their presence. She hid in a crevice, combining Yawn with the echoing nature of the well to cause most of the the poeple (and pokemon) to fall asleep. He caught her, and used her in his battles to get rid of anyone who hadn't fallen asleep. She his very sweet, showing great affection to Skyler, although she can be rather slow to react to some of his commands in battle. She is level 18 upon reaching Goldenrod.
* "PKThunder", often shortened to PK, Pikachu - Male - Hasty - PKThunder was Skyler's second pokemon. However, he hatched from an egg as a Pichu. Skyler and Blazer were marching along their path when Skyler got a call from his mother. He said that Professor Elm, who had taught Skyler about Pokemon when Skyler was younger, decided to send a Aide of his to Cherrygrove with a Pokemon egg. This egg was an odd, orangish color but had the markings of a Pichu. When it hatched, shortly before arrival in Violet City, it turned out to be a shiny Pichu. PK is also very powerful, knowing Thunder Bolt, Nasty Plot, and Thunder Wave. However, PK appears not to think about every action he makes, and sometimes gets himself into jams that Skyler must save himself. Skyler attributes this to PK being a baby, being only 11 days old upon reaching Goldenrod. He is also level 19.
* Skyler implies that he might have a fourth pokemon, but is much too afraid of it to use it.

Cody999:
If I can still join, here's my character.
Name: Sidney Watson
Age: 8
Gender: Male
Personality: Sidney is easygoing and naive. He hates Pokemon battles and only captures Pokemon if they are going to suffer in the wild places where they live. Something that really annoys him is being confused for a girl due to his appearance and the fact that he has a twin sister also called Sidney. Other than that Sidney is always cheerful ... And, hungry. Preferring to keep her Pokemon out of their Pokeballs so that they can always wander around him. His hobbies include weaving and cooking.
Appearance: Sidney is very short with short ruffled black hair. His dark green eyes are always looking around unable to concentrate in almost any situation. He usually wears a thin t-shirt and jeans. He looks identical to his sister. To try to make himself more manly he wears big boots.
Other: Would still be at home if it wasn't for his ability to sense a Pokemon's injury whatever and wherever it was and getting frustrated that he couldn't do anything about it.
Equipment: Pokeball x1
Pokegear x1
Potion x5
Antidote x1
Ice Heal x1
Team:
* "Dart" - Dratini - Male - Gentle - His first Pokemon, a gift from his older brother has always been close to Sidney, usually attach to his body somewhere. Will always be asleep unless there is food nearby or Sidney is in danger. Lv - 8
* "Pie" - Caterpie - Male - Hasty - Named due to the food that Sidney was eating at the time. Has since gotten better and stayed a loyal friend to Sidney, helping him practice his weaving. Lv - 5
* "Silver" - Furret - Female - Bold - A light furred Furret came to Sidney with a broken paw. The paw is healing but she still limps so unlike Sidney's other Pokemon she stays in her Pokeball, but when she is let out she runs ahead of Sidney, but stays in sight.
