RULES

1. All BMG rules apply
2. Midorikawa and I are the GMs. What we say goes.
3. No Godmodding
4. No Bunnying
5. Romance is fine but keep it PG-13
6. No Legendaries
7. Don’t try to make your character all powerful. Each one has their strengths. A battler is going to be better at battling than a breeder, and so on. Doesn’t mean that the others suck, just that they are weaker to that person.
8. The title section in the sign up is not to be filled out immediately. When accepted we will assign you a legendary and that becomes your title. You will also be required to change the color of the bar to match your legendary’s main color.
9. Your skill/aspiration obviously has to be pokémon related. Try to be diverse and creative. Like instead of three battlers labeled just as battling, say three different styles like: sky battles, water battles, double battles, etc. things like that.

INTRODUCTION
Hiya! The name’s Nano! So I guess I’m supposed to introduce myself, but I just did that….Oh wait. I bear the title of Yvetal. I plan on becoming a pokémon caretaker one day. My voice is kind of deep and for some reason girls like me a lot. Like as more than a friend. Did I miss anything else?
IDENTIFICATION CARD FOR YVETAL

Name: Nano Wolf
Title: Yvetal
Aspiration: Pokémon caretaker
Age: 17
Sex: Female
Orientation: No freaking idea
Relationship Status: Single
Height: 5’6’’
Weight: 120
Body Type: Not very curvy, and small breasted. Similar to a thing boy’s.
Hair: Long black hair that reaches mid back, her bangs cut to cover the right side of her face.
Eyes: Amber
Other: Nano has no right leg from the knee down and thus wears a prothsetic. Due to this, she is the only girl allowed to wear the boys uniform.


PERSONALITY
Hmmm. I like reading….sometimes. Mainly I like video games, music, I love music. I actually play the piano. I generally don’t have any problem getting along with others. Girls love me since I have no problem with girly things as well…well I actually don’t like dressing up and stuff. A bit awkward to wear a dress and heels when you only have one leg. Girls love me more in the sense that I watch romances and stuff, when their boyfriends don’t, which I don’t understand how I’m a good replacement. I just like them I guess because I’m a girl but it attracts other girls to me for some really strange reason. Boys I also get along with when they aren’t jealous of me for their girlfriends liking me better. It’s so confusing….anyways I also love pokémon and taking care of them. I’m very active despite my missing leg. I love to sing but honestly I feel a bit shy about it….it never ends well….Oh I should address how I feel about people…well generally I see them all as idiots.
ATTITUDE TEST INFORMATION ON FILE FOR YVELTAL

Nano is respectful towards adults and very intelligent. There have been no major problems with her and she seems to get along fine with others, despite being of a much higher intelligence. She views others as inferior, minus those also in the genius program. She also seems to care even if she doesn’t always show it as she pushes her fellow members to actually work. Ironically she doesn’t realize that everyone thinks she’s a male, even her teachers. This is due to the fact that she looks like one, and her voice is just deep enough to pass as a male. The male uniform and her normal clothing hide everything that identifies her as a female. She often helps out other clubs when they need it, no matter the task. She unlike her parents has shown skills in cooking. Along with that she has picked up their skills as well, though thankfully did not inherit their personalities.




NOTES ON FILE FOR YVELTAL

Pokemon: Amethyst-Sabelyeye –male-Keen Eye-Shadow ball, Shadow Sneak, Zen Headbutt, Power Gem, Confuse Ray, Detect.
Silvia-Glameow-Female-Limber-Attract, Hypnosis, Assist, Shadow Claw, Thunder, Iron Tail
Hime-Frillish-Female-Water Absorb-Recover, Water Spout, Water Pulse, Wring Out, Ominous Wind, Ice Beam




HISTORY
I was born as the second child in my family, my older brother being three years older. Both of my parents teach at Phi Academy and have known each other since they were kids. I should note that I was born without my right leg from the knee down. I grew up using a prosthetic because of it. I was actually often bullied for my leg when I was much younger. Because of it I just stopped wearing skirts and got into wearing baggier clothes. I love singing and playing music, but whenever I have, I end up being picked on for my voice. Other than the slight bullying here and there, I’ve lived well. My family is really loving and supporting of me. My brother is gay and my parents have no problem with it. He’s really cool and fun to be with. I don’t think there is anything that can be said about my history, oh except that I didn’t originally choose to go to Phi Academy. I was invited for the genius program which my whole family loved since well my brother was never part of it, and my parents have a weird history. So yeah with my pokémon that were given to me by my parents, minus my first Amethyst who I found one day needing help, I can’t think of anything else.

INTRODUCTION
Umm... Hello, it's nice to meet you. My name is Rachel, and I'm from Celadon City. I'm not the best when it comes to Pokemon, but I'll try my best to assure my Pokemon are happy and have fun when they battle. I think battles are like dances, and such. The Pokemon need to look beautiful and happy when their battling. I'm sorry, I'm probably boring you.

Name: Rachel Cross
Title: Shaymin
Aspiration: Coordinating
Age: 16
Sex: Female
Orientation: Straight
Relationship Status: Single
Height: 5,1
Weight: 98
Body Type: Slender and petite, with small breasts.
Hair: Dark black, waist length with slightly long bangs.
Eyes: Pale blue/grey
Other: Often carries around with her an ornate pink fan.

PERSONALITY
Umm... I don't know how to describe my personality... To be honest, I'm not sure why I was selected for such a program, considering I only got into contests recently. I'll try my best for my Pokemon's sake. It would be shameful for a Trainer such as myself to not aspire to be the best they can be... Anyway. My hobbies include reading, watching scary movies, and playing with my Pokemon. My favorite flowers are Cherry Blossoms and Roses. I love the color red, and I want to be someone people can depend on.

Rachel is an earnest and modest girl, whose very dedicated to her Pokemon. While she doesn't think so, her battling skill is very good, being elegant yet aggressive. Rachel has come across rather kind hearted and quiet, but some quirks should be noted. Rachel has the habit of spacing out and not even realize what was going on around her until she's brought back to her sense. Next, when she finds something amusing, she won't stop laughing and will go into a fit that will often last minutes at a time. There is also here bazar love of ghost stories and horror movies, being unable to explain why she loves them so much. Finally, Rachel has an aggressive temper when provoked, and while she does not become physically violent, she will proceed to yell and shout at the person who angered her.

HISTORY
Let's see here... My hometown is Celadon city, and I pretty much grew up an only child. My mom and dad were fairly supportive of me, but they could be a little over protective sometimes. They initially didn't want me to get anywhere near Pokemon, let alone train them, but after I kept on begging them, they eventually warmed up to the idea. After that, I started to perform in Pokemon Contests. I ended up winning my first contest, and everyone said it looked like I was always training Pokemon based on how I performed. They said I was a natural. It wasn't long after that I managed to win 4 more Ribbons and then participate in the Kanto Grand Festival. I came very close to winning, but I ended up losing the final round because I lost one too many points. But I still learned a lot from the experience. That was when someone from the school said I had a lot of talent, if I wanted to, I could attend the Genius Program. I gladly joined, so I could better myself for my Pokemon. I hope that wasn't too much detail, sorry if I bored you...

What is this "reserving"? Will you hod a place for someone in case they can't join for some reason?

If so, I'd like one, too.

No reserving means holding a place for someone temporarily so that due to their busy schedules, they don't have to worry about missing out on a spot in the rp because they couldn't get their sign up in.
 
@ThatCrazyArtist; Your sign up is overpowered. They are students learning how to be strong in their fields, and while they are geniuses at them, they are far from Champion level, or even E4. They are still learning and have potential but are not there. Also 6'7'' and 98lbs is unhealthy if he really is that weight. I'm 105lbs. at 5'2'' so a guy that tall should not be lighter than me. It might help to look up height weight ratios to get a much closer weight. Sorry but we can't accept this.
 
Alright, I'll change it to a different character.
 
INTRODUCTION
Salve! My name is Xeno, so just try and remember for me! I love heavy metal, and - wait for it - Dragon n' Steel Pokémon. What? Dragon and Steel types are for boys only? You can't try and fool me with that crap! My ultimate dream is to become a Pokémon Champion, and eventually to teach other kids how cool Pokémon battling is! I'll see you at the Academy, dude!
IDENTIFICATION CARD FOR MESPRIT

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name: Xeno Maratus
Title: xxx
Aspiration: Pokémon Champion of the Kalos League
Age: 16
Sex: Female
Orientation: Asexual
Relationship Status: Single
Height: 5' 8"
Weight: 128 lbs
Body Type: Wiry, lithe, but built with taut muscles.
Hair: Somewhat long, her hair is a dark black with silver and blue streaks.
Eyes: She has brown eyes with a hint of red.
Other: Somewhat strong, she also likes heavy metal genres and dragons.

PERSONALITY
So, I have a strong will. I'll be blunt; I stick to my own opinion. My beliefs are hard as steel, hard as the heavy metal bands I love. I have a small group of friends, so you could say that I have /some/ kind of social life. Hehe, I'm somewhat of a tomboy, I hate girly stuff, but still kinda neutral. If I have any concerns, they're usually about my grades. /wink. I don't like things to change, and often wonder what controls time.
ATTITUDE TEST INFORMATION ON FILE FOR MESPRIT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Xeno is somewhat strange, yet unique. She likes heavy metal bands, unlike most girls. She is usually described as a punk because of her genre. She is entitled to her opinion, and her steel-hard will makes her hard to persuade. Surrounded by a small circle of friends who share many beliefs, she's happy with a few friends of her own kind.


NOTES ON FILE FOR MESPRIT

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pokemon:

Gabite }{ Male }{ Rough Skin }{ Dig, Dual Chop, Dragon Claw, Slash, Flamethrower, Shadow Claw }{ Draco
Lairon }{ Male }{ Heavy Metal }{ Iron Head, Take Down, Metal Claw, Tackle, Headbutt, Iron Defense }{ Iron
Frogadier }{ Male }{ Protean }{ Bounce, Water Pulse, Dark Pulse, Acrobatics, Stone Edge, Scald }{ Azure


HISTORY
Let's see.. where should I start? Oh, yeah. When I was six years old, my dad gave me a little Froakie for my birthday. I named it Azure, for the color blue. I grew up in Shalour City, living with that Froakie. After four years, I was happy I got to train it. And guess what? It evolved! One day, my grandpa recieved two eggs from a mysterious man he called 'Looker'. What kind of name was that, anyway? Grandpa decided that it would be too much of a hassle to handle them himself, so he gave them to me. One day, the silvery egg hatched into an Aron! the other, a week an a half later, hatched into a Gible. Now, I spent around two years training my Pokémon to battle the Gym Leader, but alas; no avail. I decided then to advance to the Phi Academy, where I could learn more about my partners. End of story; what, do you want me to tell you my dream? It's to become the ultimate Pokémon Champion; Just you remember that!

@ThatCrazyArtist; while we didn't set an actual age limit in the sign up sheets we'd like the characters to be between 16-18 years of age. Also I think that the weight to height ration is still not quite right. If you need some help for choosing height and weight then I suggest you read thispage, hopefully it should help you out in regards to that part. Also your character has no last name.
