• Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.

Private/Closed POKÉMON: JOURNEY THROUGH THE PETOSA REGION {DISCUSSION}

The Petosa region is a small, thin region covered in forests and meadows, with many flowers blooning throughout. There are no mountains, but many tunnels and caves. Its inhabitants are mainly migrants from other regions. There is a river running through the middle, which can be crossed over Tokaido Bridge. The professor who resides there is Professor Acacia, a female professor who is also an Eevee breeder, and gives Eevees to the trainers that come by.

Blossom Village- the village where professor Acacia lives. A trainer must come here to recieve their starting Eevee.

Bluemoon Forest- a forest that many flying, grass and bug-types live, that leads the way to Lakita City

(see application below)
History: (I came up with this on the spot, I hope it's plausible but feel free to tell me otherwise) Dakota was born in Kalos with a mother (former coordinator) and father (breeder). Just before her tenth birthday, her parents decided to move to the Petosa region. They believed she wasn't ready for a starter yet and they had always been quite protective. Her mother had taught her how to be a Pokémon coordinator but Dakota always felt it wasn't for her. It was when she was 14 that her mother decided she was ready and has been expected to turn out as a top coordinator. Dakota has always wanted to find out what else she could be rather than a coordinator and is unclear of her main goal.

Codi manages to stay calm in most situations but can be a bit of a show off sometimes. He tends to look down on others and prefers to think he is stronger than others.
Fun fact: I have been developing this character since 2015 :0
(Also Bailey kind of sounds like Barry because she's always bumping into people and such hehe ;D)

At the same time, there are no character slots left.

@tokyomustard i had a question for you. Maybe each gym leader could be played by a certain person? It would open up for others like @Bon-BonFiveHigh to be a part of this, while the five of us would also get to play as a gym leader, meaning they wouldnt just be NPCs so that the trainers beat every gym leader on their first try, since that never happens.
 
Yeah, that’s a good idea! I could open up spots to play a specific gym leader. Though, npc gym leaders can work as long as we’re all sensible and role play the gym leader ourselves.

what would you prefer?
 
When I said 'them' I meant the people who are already in the rp but yeah that sounds like an awesome idea. I was planning on having Dakota lose her first gym battle :')
 
I would like to RP as one of the gym leaders, and for all of them to be RPed by someone. If that idea is approved, i would like to be the Fire or Dragon gym leader, either one works for me.
 
i'll do water, i love water!
sorry, but there isn’t a water gym, you can look on the main post?

I would like to RP as one of the gym leaders, and for all of them to be RPed by someone. If that idea is approved, i would like to be the Fire or Dragon gym leader, either one works for me.
you can be dragon AND fire if you want! i’ll take any of the leftover ones :)

@Senrova which gym type/s would you like to role play?
 
So do we get to choose the teams of the gym leaders we play, or were the teams already decided when you created this RP?
you can choose the team for your own gym leader, within reason of course!

wow this got closed the like very rare day I don't get on charms. how sad. i would've loved to join
ah, a shame! you can be a gym leader if you want, but it might be a while before you get to rp.

yea I know. It's ok, I'm bad at doing gym leaders anyways XD if like I can show you a reason to still allow me in, that'd be great, but it's fine.

Well... yea that'd great XD. Also I don't know if an RP sample is necessary, and this isn't really my usual but
Nick and Professor Oak walked to Route 1 and Nick saw another trainer just beat a Pidgey with his Vulpix.

"Woah I wanna be a trainer like that!"
he thought.

"All right then, since you don't have a Pokémon you have to be lucky to catch one. You usually have to weaken the Pokémon first in order to catch them. Since you can't do that, how about going for an already weak Pokémon?" Professor Oak explained. Nick nodded and began searching the grass for weak Pokémon. After a bit, he found one of the weakest Pokémon on the Route. A Caterpie.

"All right! Go Pokéball!" Nick shouted. The Caterpie got startled however before it could run away it was inside the Pokéball. Nick stared at the Pokéball with anticipation and anxiety. One... two... three... ting! Caterpie was caught! Nick jumped into the air and began cheering. Professor Oak grinned.

"Now that you have a Pokémon, you can go on a journey. I must be headed for my lab now, however. After all, there are other trainers that need to begin their journey," Oak said. Nick nodded and Professor Oak left. Eventually, he reached his laboratory and saw Katherine.

"Hello there! By your Pokémon, I believe you are a trainer. Are you looking for Pokéballs and a Pokédex to begin your journey?" he asked. "If so, follow me inside."

Meanwhile Nick was trying to train his Caterpie so it could evolve and become stronger. However, only after defeating two Rattatas, his Caterpie fainted by the gust of a Pidgey. Nick hurried home so he could heal his Pokémon. Soon afterwards, he headed back to Route 1 to train his Caterpie more. Nick kept on looking at the trainer with a Vulpix.

"Maybe I can evolve Caterpie and then catch a Pokémon. I would stand a better chance against that Vulpix in case I want to fight that trainer. After all, bug is weak against fire. So I should catch a Rattata or Pidgey soon. Or maybe a different Pokémon in Route 22. However, to do that I would have to go over all of Route 1 with just a Caterpie. That might be difficult. Hopefully Caterpie evolves soon like the Pokédex says. As a Metapod, he would stand a much better chance against Pidgeys and it would probably be way easier to catch new Pokémon,"
he thought.
