Man, this took a lot of work.
Link to actual RP: https://pokecharms.com/threads/cataclysm.15816/

A great deal of life on the planet has been wiped out. In Alola on Ula'ula Island, a bunker was constructed to save some human lives. Quite a few came to Alola too late to be accepted inside the bunker, so they fortified abandoned buildings as well as possible. Now they must rebuild civilization, or at least create a stable way of living.
Rules:
You can be either a pokemon or trainer, with a max limit of having two trainers or three pokemon.
You can be a new trainer or just hatched pokemon, no need for experience unless you want it.
Apocalocke and Pokecharms rules apply.
If one typing is saved but the other is not, such as grass saved and poison extinct, then Bulbasaur could survive. The population of that species would decrease, however, making it rarer to encounter said species in the wild.

My characters:

Name: Damian
Gender: Male
Appearance: His hair is dyed white. The bandanna, shirt and shoes he wears are black with red stripes. He has gold colored gloves, a belt, and military styled supply bag.
Personality: Likes to be called 'the hollow victor', because it sounds cool to him. He doesn't get along very well with Golduck, but thinks he has an obligation to care for all his team members.
History: Was offered a place since he is friends with a previous Kalos champion. Accepted and was forced to let some of his pokemon wander the ruined landscape on their own.
Pokemon team (and roles): Golduck (Sickly Survivor), Scyther (Sickly Survivor), Arcanine (Fearful Survivor), Golem (Lone Wanderer), Noctowl (True Survivor), Greninja (True Survivor)

Personality: Tends to be controlling of her friends, but also kind in a stiffish way. She has studied survival tactics and plans to use them.
History: After hearing that a natural disaster would occur soon, she caught as many pokemon as possible and kept them in the PC until it would end. A place was reserved for her in the bunker, but she denied it for a newer trainer; deserting her pokemon there, she proceeded to live outside far away where they could not find her.

Nickname: Sapphire
Species: Umbreon
Gender: Male
Special markings: sapphire has white fur istead of black and blue rings
Role: true survivor
Personality: alway the one to try and stop a fight shy and quite worrisome
Other info: nothing special
 
Name: Maia
Gender: Female
Appearance: She has shoulder-length black hair often held back by a navy blue bandana when she is exerting herself physically; it used to be long and soft, but after an incident, she cut it herself with a dagger, giving it a rough and jagged appearance. Her eyes are gray, and her skin is fairly tanned. She wears a slightly stained white shirt underneath a black leather jacket, with lose gray pants held by a black belt and tucked into black combat boots.
Personality: She has a bit of a short temper and can be impatient, but hides several insecurities. She is always aiming to prove herself, afraid that she will never be able to. Though she will never admit it, she has become incredibly lonely, even though she has her Pokemon partners.
History: She grew up in the shadows of her older siblings that always outperformed her, always thinking she was never good enough to make something of herself. After befriending an Absol that seemed to have an uncanny habit of staying around her, she left home to become a Pokemon trainer. Several months later, the Apocalypse began and she was offered a spot in the bunker, but she gave that spot to her younger sister, the only member of her family that she truly respects. Afterwards, she never heard from the rest of her family again. Whether they are dead or not, she has no idea.
Pokemon team (and roles): Absol (True Survivor), Skarmory (Lucky Survivor), Manectric (Sickly Survivor), Froslass (Fearful Survivor), Mienshao (Lone Wanderer)
Other info: She carries a hunting dagger at her hip, attached to her belt.

Woah. Got some alright trainers here. @Tsu, the setting is in Alola on Ula'ula, so could you edit your character's history to include how she got there? And @Omo Dokuro, I'm making sure you know that you must ask an admin for permission for Erik's Sceptile to Mega Evolve.
 
Okay then. Just curious, have you thoroughly read this website's rules yet? I won't kick you off if you haven't, just do that if you haven't already so we won't get any double posts or one liners.
 
No problem, buddy. And if you ever need advice for anything else, you can send me a PM.

Looks like we're going with a meteor strike, judging by the votes. That'll certainly be interesting...
 
About how long after the disaster does the RP take place? I'm guessing at least a few weeks, since there was time to build a bunker and such, unless that hasn't actually happened quite yet ^^
 
Yeah, it's been about a month. Long enough for everyone in there to get tired of it. But the dust clouds and extreme heat aren't gone yet, so it's risky to leave the clean air.

All righty, we are ready to do it!

Now, before you last two go anywhere, I'll have to point some things out. @EnderFox and @Sandyplayz, you are missing some details. If your characters don't have extra information, then put N/A for other info. Don't just leave it out. And Sandy, your team has roles missing. Feel free to add more detail if you guys can think of any.

(Also, Sandy, let me approve your bio before you go post anything)

Those are fine, but Sandy, I was referring to the pokemon's roles. In case you need a list, there is:
Fearful Survivor, Lone Wanderer, True Survivor, Lucky Survivor, Survivor Couple (requires two pokemon of opposite gender), and Sickly Survivor. Enderfox...you're clear.
