It's the year 2025, and technology as well as Pokemon have advanced. New ways to train Pokemon, New gym leaders, new mega evolutions, and so on! What you decide to do is your choice, and you will have your Pokemon to guide you. Will you follow the trainer route or perhaps something more? Will you conquer the league and become a master? Or will you choose another path? All of this depends on you and your choices.


Rules

1. BMGf rules always apply.
2. No godmodding of any kind; this includes auto-hitting.
3. Romance is OKAY, but nothing past PG-13
4. Any questions you need to know about? This is will be an OOC thread as well once the RP starts.
5. GM/Mod's word is law.
6. Have any suggestions for plot or any ideas? Please send them to me. I'd love to hear what you guys have in mind.
7. The most important... have fun!

Need-to-know information

1. Since this is in the future, there will be more megas, new types of mega evolution, new moves, and new styles of battling and performances.
2. The Starter Pokemon will have megas in the future of the RP. Depending on what kind you get, well...that's a mystery. ;)
3. I won't be allowing pseudo-legendaries as starters, but you can catch them later on in the RP if appropriate.
4. While the newer gym leaders won't have megas at first, the latter ones as well as the elite four and champion will carry megas.
5. Remember, not all of the gym leaders are the same. There will be some new faces tossed in.
6. Unless I give special permission, the legendaries won't be able to be captured. They will be used for plot purposes.
7. Gym leaders may also have two primary typings instead of one, or they will have a wild-card in their rosters.
8. Also, look out for a new evil syndicate!
9. I will be allowing reservations as well.

My Sign-up

Name: Melody Brooks
Nickname: Sometimes, she is called Mel or Mel-Mel.
Age: 16
Birthday: March 11th
Gender: Female

Appearance:
thumb.jpg

She has a skinny frame, but she has some toned muscles in her legs and arms, so she isn't lanky. She has curly, mid-back length, dyed, magenta hair, and jade colored eyes. Her face is a heart shape, and she has freckles in the summer months, along with dimples that are visible when she smiles. She also has a pale complexion, regardless of living near a beach. Her clothing changes daily, but her favorite outfit is a modest, white sundress, and tan cowboy boots. When she wears it, she also likes to accentuate her natural waist with a tan belt, and wears a white flower in her hair. Her nightwear also varies, but she commonly wears t-shirts with different pajama pants. During the summer, if she goes swimming in the local lakes, rivers, or public pools, she has three bikinis to choose from: a white bikini with pink and purple polka dots, a brown bikini with tribal prints, and a shamrock green bikini. She has yet to dress formally, so it is unknown.

Personality: Melody is an adventurous, free spirited woman who is rather shy at first. She loves being out in nature and creating art out in the wilderness, usually by drawing the wild Pokemon she spots. While she loves music, she never really sings unless she's in private or in the comfort of someone she trusts. She has many skeletons in her closet that she prefers stay there. She loves her adopted family, but her adopted mother sees her as a troubled soul, rebel, and a disgrace who needs shunned until she sees the error of her ways. However, her father and two sisters contact her privately via telephone, cell phone, or visitation. She decided to travel to live a more fulfilling life for herself, so she could express herself freely.

Background: To be revealed in the RP

Other: Her theme song is still being decided, but I"ll post here when I find it.

Birthday: July 4th
Appearance:

RyanHansenHairstyle.jpg
Personality: Vance is an extremely positive person. He loves life and seems to think that everything is just there to make it so he can have a good time. He is loud and charming, but also quite generous. He has a soft spot for his sister, something that the girl takes advantage of.
Background: Summer is his twin sister. The pair grew up in Goldenrod and have traveled the region quite extensively with their parents in the past.

Starter to receive: Growlithe


Name: Summer Snow
Age: 17
Birthday: July 4th
Appearance:
e01c99ad654457589549af9b7d0569c1.jpg
Personality: Summer is a party girl. She loves the bright lights of the big city and she is always down to have a good time. While she shares her brother's recklessness streak (and she's always up for doing something stupid with him), she's also definitely the thinker of the pair. She's fiendishly clever and usually gets what she wants.
Background: Vance is her twin brother, but she is the older twin (which she likes to remind her brother of once in awhile). Besides she shares the basics of her background with her brother.

Starter to receive: Charmander
 
Name: Vincent Sceptre
Nickname: Vinny
Age: 16
Birthday: Febuary 27th, 2009
Appearance: Picture here.

Personality: Vinny is a curious and easily interested in new things, especially things pertaining to hauntings or ghosts. As such, his favourite Pokémon typing is the Ghost-type, and the way he dresses reflects this. He is an extroverted individual that feels he has the capacity to lead people, which can make him stubborn with his decisions or come off as pushy at times. Vinny thinks often about the world around him, and enjoys the journey far more than the destination. When he is without companions or friends for too long, his mood becomes less than enthusiastic, and given enough time by himself he can even become depressed. He greatly fears loneliness, but if this ever becomes an issue he tries to find reassurance in the possible presence of spirits around him.

Vinny grew up as a fairly superstitious person, believing in many different ghost stories, and the magical properties of the world. Despite knowing that messing with the spirit world could be potentially dangerous, Vinny's curious demeanor means that he would likely not mind pushing his luck with it. Vinny often tries to be supportive of his friends however he can, though he also puts off his own personal feelings more times than he would like to admit. He is generally open about his thoughts and opinions, however, and does not mind discussing them publicly.

Background: Vincent was born and raised for most of his life in Lavender Town, where the local culture of revering the dead and superstition cultivated him into a Ghost-loving person. He always grew excited by the thought of researching the paranormal as a young child, and his first friends in grade school shared his enthusiasm for the most part. He would often explore supposedly haunted areas, which also had an impact on his personality as he grew older. This adventures would keep him busy, while his parents unfortunately grew apart over the years.

Eventually, his parents separated and divorced. Vinny, with his mother, had to move out to Cherrygrove City rather than remain in Lavender Town, for the sake of cheaper housing. Being away from friends and what he considered home depressed Vinny for a while, but he eventually decided that a Pokémon journey may be exactly what he needs to get his head back into a more positive outlook on his life.

Other: N/A

Starter Pokémon: Misdreavus
 
Name: Zach Hiken

Age: 16

Birthday: April 9

Appearance: Zach is a white somewhat muscular guy of average height and weight. He has brown eyes, as well as dark brown spikey hair. Typically he is open to anything when it comes to shirts. For now he'll wear a long sleeve red shirt. He always wears basic blue jeans that fit comfortably, neither too tight nor too loose. He also wears black and white sneakers.

Personality: Zach is somewhat of a tough guy especially when someone messes with his girlfriend. He tends not to cry, but does care about other people's feelings, especially little kids and girls (the latter of which being particularly prevalent when Sophi is not around). He's also very social, though he obviously doesn't say as much to women when Sophi is around.

Background: Zach was born in Sunyshore City and lived a very nice life with his family. Volkner helped teach him a lot and ultimately became Zach's mentor and idol. When Zach was about 12, his family moved to Hearthome City, where Zach met his girlfriend, Sophi. They fell in love right away and have been dating for about 4 years now and moved to Johto to start a journey.

She also wears a belt around her jeans and she tends to wear higher shoes for her flare jeans. She does have low wedge heels and sandals too though. Additionally she likes to wear a necklace that has a picture of Zach, as well as some rings and bracelets and of course makeup.

Personality: Sophi is generally a crybaby and always looks to Zach for help. She hates getting down dirty and definitely hates getting wet. Despite all this, Sophi is a real sweetheart. She tries to make people happy and she even uses her good looks to flirt with other guys (when Zach is not around) to get what she desires.

Background: Sophi was born in Hearthome City and developed a serious interests in Pokémon contests and the beauty of a Pokémon's appearance. Fatina assisted Sophi and even helped her develop a small interest in Pokémon battling. When Zach's family moved to her hometown she was working at the Poffin house.

@Yash10; um, who is professor Caroline?? The starters will be given by Professor Elm. Professor Caroline isn't the professor in this Rp. Since professor elm is the professor, your backgrounds will need to be edited as well.
 
Professor Caroline is actually a former student of Professor Elm. She suggested Yash and Cheryl to work with Elm where he would eventually entrust them with starter Pokémon

The starters will be provided by Elm no doubt. Sorry for the inconvenience and unclear explaining

The RP is set in the future. So I thought it would be great to add a new prof as Elm's student

Mod note: you don't need to post three times. If you want to add something to a post, there's the edit button.

Now, as a GM, you can't be making new professors without my permission. Anything like that has to be cleared with me first. As long as you change Caroline to Professor Elm, you'll be good. Just remember to ask me before doing something like that okay? :)
