Ask to Join The Ikora Region Reboot

Hi there Pokecharms! I am very excited to announce the reboot of my first RP ever: The Ikora Region. This version of the RP will take place in the near future of that timeline. Meaning, that if you took place in the last RP, you will need to have a new OC. In this version, our heroes will go on a similar journey like before with a few twists. One of the twists is the The Haze Cult (Credit to @Slemmandre) and Team Shadow have both grew and obtained a significant amount of more power. Our journey will start in Allabar Town, like before, (you could start out living there or moving there).

The League: I will post details of the League letter on

Gym 1. Vernon (Bug)
Gym 2. Sandy (Ground)
Gym 3. Windall (Flying)
Gym 4. Vinny (Poison)

E4 1. Venus (Grass)
E4 2. Raina (Water
E4 3. Zac (Electric)
E4 4. Molt (Fire)

Rules:
1. NO ONE-LINERS. This was a problem in the first RP and I hope it's not one again
2. Follow the normal Pokemon RP rules, that goes without saying but seriously it's a problem
3. I would like it if the maximum amount of swearing was "hell"
4. Violence is allowed, but please no gore (but if you must, post a warning first)
5. This is an "Ask to Join" RP for a reason, if you don't ask to join I will report you
6. Before you join, I would recommend reading the original RP first
7. If you would like to be an evil-team member, contact me privately
8. Keep battling and capturing reasonable, don't forget that you can lose occasionally
9. I will close the thread once 7 more people join so hurry up
10. If you decide to be a bad guy, you must have two characters (1 trainer and 1 bad guy)
11. Just like last time, if you obtain a new Pokemon you're required to post a form at the bottom of your post

Woop woop! Ikora's back in business!
Name: Eastleigh Forhe
Nickname*: Wes
Age: 15
Gender: female
Height: 5'3''
Weight: 123 lbs.
Musculature: About as slim as anyone else, but seemingly a tad stocky due to her height.
Hair: Pale blonde, curly shoulder length, and thrown up in a poofy ponytail.
Eyes: Murky green.
Clothing: She wears a bronze jacket over a white t-shirt and black leggings.
Identifying Marks*: Half a dozen freckles in sparse distribution on her face. Most notably on her jaw, chin, forehead, and just below her lip.
Past*: After living an easy childhood, building tiny, useless contraptions for her own amusement by the time she was ten, Wes's parents sought retirement in Allabar Town. Though she fought tooth and nail to stay in Sinnoh, Wes eventually accepted the fact that a change of scenery could be a good thing. Not to mention, there was a Pokemon from the professor waiting for her in Ikora, which no doubt sweetened the deal.
Personality: While perfectly content when left to her own devices, Wes doesn't mind the occasional situation in which she's the center of attention. She'd always wanted to be an actor, mingling with small, close-knit communities, and making a name for herself as she did so, but these dreams have mostly fallen flat with her new role as a trainer. Still, that doesn't mean she doesn't have a theater side still.
Skills*: Acting, Building Small Crafts
Family*: Kendrick Pinn (Father) Gloria Pinn (Mother)
Starter: Stunky

Species: Stunky
Nickname*: Zindel
Gender: male
Level: 5
Ability: Keen Eye
Moveset: Scratch, Poison Gas, Focus Energy
Personality*: Often exasperated with the overly-theatrical antics of his trainer, Zindel follows along, keeping Wes out of harm's way without a second thought. Just because she's annoying sometimes doesn't mean she hasn't grown on him, and Zindel's surely a fierce fiend if he truly saw you as a threat to Wes.
