Private/Closed Sinnoh Nuzlocke Discussion (Reboot)

30 years ago, and after the defeat of Cynthia at the Pokémon league, the challenger declined the role of champion and went off to other regions. Meanwhile there were still questions about who the new champion would be, so Cynthia remained champion. Then 10 years ago a new challenger appeared, and was unlike any trainer that had ever been in Sinnoh before. This trainer defeated the Pokémon League and Cynthia without a single Pokémon fainting. This trainer claimed his role as the new champion and reformed the battle system with a new government system. Trainer battles were considered illegal with the exception of gym challenges and tournaments. In addition the new champion made it so that trainers could only catch the first Pokémon they find in each route. Finally the most brutal of all the rules to be instated, all Pokémon do not fight until they faint they fight to the death. If a Pokemon fainted, it died. The new champion used these rules personally for the Pokémon league challenge and instated them to keep the government system in power. Some trainers have challenged and revolted against his ways, but he defeated them all and any trainer who wished to challenge the champion personally, had to endure all 8 gym battles and all 4 elite four battles. The new ways of Sinnoh included theme Pokémon themes such as the Thunderstorm theme which includes water and electric Pokémon.
Rules
Follow basic Pokecharms rules to keep the roleplay alive.
I will role everyone's encounters and someone will role my encounter.
Please be reasonable with Pokémon deaths. I encourage some lucky survival battles, but please keep it limited it is a nuzlocke after all.
Don't really battle other ocs as this would ruin the nuzlocke challenge and you are basically killing off a character.
Give some nicknames to the Pokémon you catch you don't have to abide by calling them the nickname just give a nickname to the Pokémon.
Please have some nuzlocke experience before joining if you don't just look it up and ask me if you have any questions.
Limit gift pokemon/fossils to no more than 2.

I'm only suggesting, also maybe reopen the RP, cause I think it's unfair if I have two starters and no one else will join if it's private or closed, perhaps make it ask to join then switch it back to Private/Closed. Just a suggestion.
 
Yeah you choose it and if you can't remember what starter you chose I put it at the top of this thread we just waiting for someone else to join and they will have Piplup
 
May I join? It's okay if I can't. I am fairly new to this website so I understand if I can't join because you want a more experienced roleplayer

Here is my bio if I can join

Name: Katherine "Kat" Anderson

Gender:Female

Age: 13

Appearance:
Kat has long, platinum blonde hair that she wears loose on her back. Her eyes are a sparkling sky blue. Her skin is a fair white and she is slightly shorter than most girls her age, and also fairly skinny. She has faint freckles around her nose and on her shoulder.

Outfit:
Kat wears a simple sky blue hoodie with a ultra ball on the front of it. Underneath, she wears a plain white t-shirt. She pairs that with yellow athletic shorts with dark blue stripes on the side and knee high white socks with plain dark blue converse styled tennis shoes.

Personality:
Bubbly and friendly, Kat is always one to make friends.She is always full of excitement and energy. Kat's super energetic nature may come as annoying to some, so sometimes she will back it down. Kat is an empathic person, who tries hard to help others feel happy. Kat is generally friendly towards others but will act slightly aggressive if someone is mean towards her friends, family, or Pokemon.

Backstory:
Kat never knew her biological parents. They were a couple from Hoenn who had too many children and could not afford to take care of them all. Kat was adopted by an older woman who had a dream to raise adopted children, since she could not have any of her own. The older woman lived in a large house in Sinnoh, given to her by her parents. The older woman adopted Kat and many other children, 10 in total. But she also fostered many children during Kat's childhood. Kat was always the oldest of kids and acted like a big sister to the other children. Her household was never empty, always packed to the brim with other kids. Kat didn't mind this, because she loved to hang out with others and play around. During her childhood, many of the kids that she lived with said they dreamed of being a trainer. Kat wasn't so sure of being a trainer, since she wanted to do what her mother was doing. Eventually, Kat really wanted to be a trainer. Her mother made a rule that all the kids who wanted to be a trainer couldn't start at 10, which most trainers usually start at, but at 13. So now Kat is excited to start her journey and finally become a Pokemon Trainer.
