Open Journey in the Galar Region! (Discussion)

ill have to post a bio here some time later

 

Hiya! Question: If my char comes from another region, can I use Pokemon that were not included in SwSh?

 

Also is it ok to have a character who is more on the breeding side of things instead of a trainer? I want to kind of have a character who more or less just travels around the regions and occasionally joins up with a group to travel around with.

Also can my character start with an egg given to them by their grandmother?

 

Count me in!

First Name: Hector
Last Name: Fitzroy
Age: 15
Personality: Hector is mainly seen as a confident, yet calm and laid back individual who is never afraid to talk back to anyone. He shows a slightly kinder attitude towards women and as someone born from Wyndon (despite his "Spikemuth attitude") he greatly enjoys being outdoors and close to nature. He loves Pokémon and enjoys battling with them but despises losing and loud noises. When it comes to helping someone in danger, he works as hard as he could to help them out. He can be terrifyingly aggressive when angry.
Appearance: He has light Fair skin with a very light Brown buzz cut and Gray eyes. His attire consists of a Black polo shirt under a White leather jacket, very dark Blue jeans with the left knee having a slight tear and Black sneakers with White soles. He carries a light Gray belt bag.
Backstory: As someone born in Wyndon between a hardworking mother and a father who originated from Spikemuth, Hector grew up to love Pokémon battles and would always watch them on TV. One day after helping his mother with shopping, he encountered a Zigzagoon being bullied by a Linoone, is if out of instinct Hector rushed in to protect the Zigzagoon and managed to drive the Linoone away, on his way back home, he didn't realize the Zigzagoon followed him until his parents pointed it out. He was surprised when his father handed him a Poké ball to catch the Pokemon that would be called his first partner. Since then, he trained hard with Zigzagoon and eventually decided to take part in the Gym challenge... and strive for victory!
Other: Beeper, beeper, I'm a sheeper!
Crush: None (Yet and because there are barely any other chars atm)

Pokémon Bio:
Species: Zigzagoon (Galarian)
Moves: Headbutt, Snarl, Sand attack, Pin missile

Pokémon Bio:
Species: Rookidee

Makes me wonder how likely it is that we can have a G-Max Pokémon.

NICEU! NIECU! VERY NEICU, CRYRONN CHAN!

 

Question. Would there be an evil group that would intrude to interrupt the storyline at some points?

 

And if there is, will it be minor like Team Yell or more of a major team with a bigger goal?

 

What if Macro Cosmos comes up again?

 

Sorry for double post, but what about Hidden Abilities?

 

@Cryronn the Mudkip: Are you still accepting new players? If so, I'd love to apply!

 

I'm just putting my bio in and reading as fast as possible since I'm preparing for Thanksgiving at the moment eep.

 

So, is the professor gonna be endorsing the trainers upon arrival?

 

Umm, I might join the RP, but before that, I want to ask something.

Because the RP is a year after the player beat Leon, is it possible to make a bio for a gym leader (as there's a new gym leader that replaced someone, like that Bede replaced Opal).

 

First Name: Anderson "Anders"
Last Name: Hjelmstad
Age: (11-16): 16


Personality: Anders is like the winter: cold and harsh at first glance, but not without redeeming qualities upon further inspection. His quiet nature can be off-putting to some, but he seamlessly becomes hearty and inviting once he becomes comfortable. When he does speak, he is well-spoken. Anders puts on the appearance of remaining calm and level-headed at all times, even in tense situations, but often acts on emotion rather than on logic. As a result, he may instinctually jump to judgment without due consideration and refuse to see the other side of an argument presented. Despite his stubbornness, he seldom acts selfishly.

Appearance: Anders fits the Pokémon World equivalent of a typical Scandinavian stereotype. Standing at 6'4", he is tall, broad-shouldered, and extremely lean, though not quite to the point of appearing unhealthy, with low muscle tone. Anders has layered blond hair that falls to about his neck and appears perpetually messy, despite his careful hygiene, by nature. He has milky blue eyes to match his strikingly pale complexion. He has a pronounced jawline, but a thinner nose and narrower chin than he would like.

Raised in Circhester, Anders has become accustomed to the cold and, therefore, dresses almost solely for a snowy climate. He wears a thick, collared cardigan sweater, knit from Wooloo's wool and dyed beige with a brown selburose pattern. For ease of travel and comfort, he wears a pair of gray cotton trousers and brown hiking boots. Anders will often accompany the look with a beige field coat.

Backstory: Anders had as standard a childhood as possible growing up in a climate in which it snows year-round. His parents co-owned the Bob's Your Uncle restaurant, where he spent much of his time as either a diner or a server, once he became a teenager. Anders worked to save up enough money to attend a Trainers' School. His parents were extremely conservative as a result of being raised rather poor in Spikemuth, and they refused to allow him to leave on a Pokémon journey without the proper educational background. At age 14, Anders traveled to Jubilife City in Sinnoh to attend the Trainers' School and to get a taste of life outside of the snowy countryside.

After one semester in Jubilife, Anders planned to flunk his finals, a sabotage that would serve as a way out of his classes and help him avoid telling his parents that he disliked the Trainers' School. He firmly believed that Pokémon Training shouldn't simply be boiled down to a science and that there was an innate emotional aspect to battling that was foolish to ignore. He returned to Circhester to continue to work as a server at Bob's Your Uncle to pay off his students loans. It was a depressing thought that he might be stuck in his chilly hometown forever.

For his 16th birthday, Anders's parents granted him permission to leave on his journey, coming to the realization that the young man might learn valuable life lessons through traveling. On his way to Hammerlocke to take the train to Wedgehurst, Anders caught a Darumaka in the mountains outside of Circhester.

Other: Anders secretly wishes beepers were still in.
Crush: Melony, Sonia

Pokémon:

Species: Darumaka
Nickname (If Any): Saru
Moves (Allowed one Egg or TM move. Make other moves scale accordingly): Power Snow | Tackle | Bite | Hammer Arm

 

You dare challenge Takoda’s height by being taller?

 

Why not have Leon the gym leader? Or maybe Hop?

 

@Cryronn the Mudkip: Hey! No rush, but I put up an application.

 

Hop as a normal type first gym would be good

Pharaps I can make a character to replace Milo/Bede, but don't expect that gym to be that easy, at least not when the grassy/misty terrain is on the field.

Is the order of the gyms or it will stay the same?
