Private/Closed A journey through Johto! (Discussion)

Would it be ok to have an older character.

 

Well I was thinking of doing two characters if that is allowed. I was thinking that I would have the older character going with their younger sibling teaching them the ways of pokemon.

@BloodRedRobot, @JadeStar, @GQuasch, Would you guys be interested in this RP?

 

Remember, my character isn't leaving the current RP that we're in, and I'm not too interested in just casually making another new character for this. I still have an RP thread of my own to get started.

 

It is ok, sorry to bother you about it.

 

Uhhh maybe. Not sure.

Id prefer to continue with the characters in the other rp instead of having to get used to a new group, but ill think about it

 

I might be interested so I will get back on this

 

Is there a limit as to how much pokemon we can have at the start or anything like that?

 

What if my character has six at the start from his home region (Galar) and he left five of em at his parents' house and came to Johto with his Raboot and an egg thatll hatch into an Eevee and eventually become an Umbreon

 

Question? Do you have to start at the first stage of our Pokemon? I just want to know ahead of time @JayTaku

 

Hm alright I know who to use then thank you

 

Hmmm alright im in.

Whats the age range for characters if there is one?

 

Hmmmm...alright

Would you prefer if i list his just his team currently or all of the ones he'll catch in the rp too

 

Here are my two characters. Their connection will become very clear in the RP.

Spoiler: Sylvia Turner

Name: Sylvia Turner
Age: 13
Height: 5'2
Physical appearance: Sylvia has a rather athletic build, caucasian skin, and bright blue eyes along with long blonde hair. Her blonde hair has one pink streak and one blue streak in it. She has a light dusting of freckles on her face. She also wears a small pendant with a small gemstone in the shape of half a heart.
Defining feature: Her colorful appearance. Her hair is accented with two streaks of color, and her eyes are very bright blue.
Clothing: Sylvia typically wears a pink t-shirt underneath a pair of faded denim overalls along with black boots. The overalls have several splatters of paint and usually have various artist's tools sticking out of the large pockets - paintbrushes, pencils, mini-sketchbooks, etc.
Personality: Shy and sweet, Sylvia is a reserved girl with loads of hidden talent. She is rather reserved, and shies away from conflict. She has a lot of artistic sense, and sees the beauty in even the small things - from the wind blowing the trees, to the avian Pokemon flying above, to the colors of city lights at night. She sees the best in everyone - but is easily scarred, and can hold a grudge for a long time. Sylvia gets a thrill from the battlefield, and she and her Pokemon use these battles as a chance to express their love of beauty.
Occupation: New Trainer
Pokemon team: Pokemon Egg (Happiny). Will obtain Chikorita as starter.
Region of origin: Johto
Likes: Art, Pokemon, dance, nature, art, the color blue, did I mention art?

Defining feature: None, really.
Clothing: Adelyn wears an orange blouse with black jeans and tall combat-boots. She also wears a small pendant with a small gemstone in the shape of half a heart, opposite to Sylvia's.
Personality: Just like the Pokemon she trains, Adelyn has a fiery spirit and passion. She's very outgoing and has a sarcastic touch, but deep down, she's very caring. She's courageous and dignified, with a love for adventure and thrill.

A journey-RP in my favorite region, I'm in! (if that's still possible)

Spoiler: Eliot Lens

Name: Eliot Lens
Age: 18
Region of origin: Johto (Azalea Town)
Height: 5'6
Physical appearance: Despite being 18 years old, his young looking face and lack of facial hair make him look younger. On top of that, Eliot isn't very tall or muscled either. However, Eliot is seldom over seen, as people will notice his camera everywhere.
Defining feature: His camera
Clothing: The first thing people will notice about Eliot is the camera hanging around his neck. Because he'll always look for the best perspective to take his pictures from, he's always prepared to run, climb, crawl, and so on. That's why he's often wearing sporty clothes, like a tracksuit and running shoes. However, as Eliot's always prepared for wherever he's going, he'll often change his outfit based on the weather.
Personality: Eliot is very optimistic, enthusiast and energetic. He loves to be outside, explore the world and take pictures with his camera. A lot of times he'll get lost though, as he's very chaotic and impulsive as well. Whenever he has an idea, he'll immediately execute it, meaning he'll sometimes follow a Pokémon for hours, after which he forgot where he came from. Eliot always carries his camera with him so he's able to make a picture of anything at anytime. He's loved photography ever since he was a kid and mainly focusses on photographing Pokémon and landscapes.
Occupation: Photographer / Trainer
Likes: Photography, long walks, nature, Pokémon
Dislikes: Waiting and arrogant people

---
Pokemon team:

Species: Ampharos
Nickname: Thea
Gender: Female
Nature: Docile; Thea is a calm and loyal Pokémon who always does whatever Eliot asks her to do without hesitating. However, she has never battled before, as both Eliot and Thea were never really interested in battling. Eliot mainly uses the Ampharos for the lighting of his pictures, which Thea herself loves to do as well.
Ability: Static
Moveset: Light Screen | Flash | Charge | Thunder Wave
Backstory: When she was still a Mareep, Thea belonged to a farm west of Azalea Town, where she was used for her wool. However, once she was fully evolved into an Ampharos, the farmer had no use for her anymore. One day Eliot was taking pictures around the farm when he got into conversation with the farmer. He told him about the Ampharos and asked if Eliot wanted to take her. Being the Light Pokémon, Thea could help Eliot with the lighting for his pictures. Eliot decided to take the Pokémon and she turned out to be a great help. From that moment on, Eliot always had her with him wherever he went.

Species: Bergmite
Nickname: Chunk
Gender: Male
Nature: Lonely; Chunk is a rather quiet Pokémon. He doesn't really enjoy interaction with other Pokémon or people, aside from the ones he trusts. However, the Bergmite is rather curious. It likes to closely observe situations, without actually meddling.
Ability: Ice Body
Moveset: Rapid Spin | Harden | Powder Snow | Icy Wind | Bite
Backstory: Eliot met his Bergmite when he was on vacation in the Kalos region. There he went on a hike with Thea to shoot some pictures of the landscape around Frost Cavern. While setting up his camera, he suddenly noticed a Bergmite watching them, curious as to what they were doing. Eliot liked the appearance of the little Pokémon and realized he had a pokéball in his bag. After catching the Pokémon, he came to understand that Chunk liked to battle. Eliot had no battling-experience whatsoever, but from that moment on he had been considering to actually become a Pokémon trainer and travel through Johto.

 

Just remembered, is there a rule against having starter pokemon in the wild and being caught like Ash? Just wanna make sure

 

Nope it is completely fine. I think it is fun to be able to catch any pokemon within reason.

 

Agreed, in that case i might give Jake a Totodile eventually, not sure. Definitely gonna give him an Aipom though.

Are we keeping the six pokemon at a time rule?

 

I dont see why not

 

@JayTaku, I think it would make sense to be able to evolve them. It would be weird to not be able to since our characters know that they will evolve eventually.
