Howdy folks! Greetings to all ape and non-ape beings out there! My name is Ambipom (actually it's S-NEVER MIND) and I will be one of the hosts of the awesomeness '+ + Pokemon Gijinka: Search for Paradise+ +' . Please let this RP live a long and healthy life. Though, I'm willing to bet it won't last longer than a week... Come on, people, stop the Kadabra, break traditions, think outside the box!
...In other words, please join.
BACKSTORY: (Scroll down if this bores you) Well, my friend and I, Lady Milotic, were squealing over the Gijinka pictures on DevART when we decided it would be pretty cool to create our own. She, of course, doodled a stunning Milotic gentleman while I created an Eevee morph. We spent about half an hour naming them and giving them personalities before deciding to create more. Hmph. Now we had a whole army of Gijinkas.
Seeing as when I get an idea I usually like to share it with others (coughdatinggamecough), it struck me that the Pokemon Crater RPs had been pretty boring last time I logged in so why shouldn't we give them a treat? Gijinkas are awesome and you know you love 'em.
But but...something happened to Pokemon Crater. It's not there anymore! (cries) Oh well. I told Lady Milotic I'd search the interweb for another forum board and came across this 'Bulbagardens'. Oh. My. Lugia. Bulbapedia is, like, the best PKMN info site ever and know it had a forum to match! Sweetness! So, while we wait for Lady Milotic, here's the basic jist:
PLOT
Once upon a time, Gijinkas lived happily with humans. Now, a masked villan (is there any other kind?) has arisen, threatning to 'put down' all Gijinkas. In order to escape this madman, all the Gijinkas have fled to their closest 'safe place'. One group, known as the 'Oreinn' Gijinkas, have travelled to a hotel East of Johto where they will plot to save the rest of the Gijinkas and find out just why this villan wants them snuffed out.
Q & A (as applied to the story):
What's a Gijinka?
A Gijinka is a being that is part Pokemon part human. They may posses the wings/fur/feathers/fangs/scales/powers of the Pokemon but have the basic body of a human. They have a person's mind. Some people fear Gijinkas because of their Pokemon traits.
Can a Gijinka be *any* Pokemon?
Almost any. There shouldn't be such thing as Gijinka legendaries.
Do Gijinka evolve?
Yes, overtime when they gain strength, they evolve. Their appearance may change slightly as it is with regular Pokemon.
Someone took the Gijinka I wanted to RP as! Can more than one person be the same species?
As long as your Gijinka is a different gender to the one already submitted. Meaning there can be two Pikachus, female and male. If you're serious about having a Gijinka the same gender and species as the one before, PM the controller of the character. Yes, you have permission to re-use Eevee but not Mismagius and Roselia.
Can Gijinka own Pokemon?
Of course! ^^ Gijinka have an easier time than humans bonding with Pokemon!
How did Gijinkas come into this world?
Fans. I mean-nobody knows for sure when they first appeared. They may be the product of an experiment gone wrong or...something very wrong that a human decided it okay to do. Don't get what I'm saying? Good. You're lucky.
((If a question you're confused about isn't here, PM me or Lady Milotic.))
RULES
All normal RPG rules apply, eg: no swearing, no bashing other members. Minor cursing is okay like 'damn' or 'crap' but nothing outside those. Your character saying something against another member's isn't flaming but you cannot say anything against another member or their character in an OOC post.
No godmodding. No SPAMMING. If you have an OOC post, please use (( )) or << >>. And dont tink typin lik a slowpoke is acceptable. Proper grammer is to be used. Oh yeah, please write in third person because reading 'I did this,' the whole time just gets a little too confusing. ^^; And no fewer than five lines per non-OOC post.
Please try to keep these rules. There's not many.
STORYLINE
You are a Gijinka of the Oreinn group. You and several others are taking shelter at a small hotel run by Stent, the Tauros Gijinka. You arrive at this place, wet from the rain to be greeted by a Flaaffy Gijinka. She will escourt you to your room. Inside, you find a bed, dresser, closet and a seperate bathroom. You collapse onto your bed, exhausted from the journey, eager for rest.
-oOo-
The next morning you arrive down stairs to meet everyone else. There, you will discuss plans and tactics. But you can't help feeling a little weary of the Ninetales Gijinka* that has a somewhat sinister look. Your post starts from you waking up. Proceed from there.
((Lady Milotic says she will be RPing as Ninetales as well as Milotic.0.o?))

My Characters
Name: Kim Blaire West.
Gijinka species: Eevee
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Personality: He's very friendly, very open. He'll loyally protect anyone he loves and his heart is definitely in the right place. He's sweet and caring, especially to his girlfriend, Anita. He's not planning on evolving anytime soon. Evolving is overrated.
History: Originally from Johto. He doesn't own any Pokemon. He was born a Gijinka into a family of four. His mother is an Eevee also, his father is a Vaporeon and his big brother is an Umbreon. His brother was put under an 1000 year curse from the Ninetales Gijinka and Kim hates him for it (the Ninetales). He looks up to his brother for advice.
He's been dating Anita for almost a year now and is pleased to know they'll be in the same 'safe place'. He also has quite a history with the Ninetales Gijinka. They used to be best friends when he was a Vulpix but now, ever since evolving, they're bitter enemies. All he wants is to live peacefully alongside humans.
Attire: A black jacket over a white top. Black jeans. Blue sneakers.
Pokemon features: He's covered in brown fur. He has a collar of fluffy, white fur around his neck. He had brown paws for hands and feet but he stands upright. His hair is a darker brown than his skin. He's got two big Eevee ears and a fluffy Eevee tail.

Other: Anita is his girlfriend.
Pokemon
(None)
Name: Anita Miriam Blake
Gijinka species: Roselia
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Personality: She's really sweet and caring. She'd never hold a grudge and would only fight as a last resort. She adores her boyfriend. Anita wants to work in a Pokemon Center as a nurse when she's older. She believes her knowledge of aroma therapy would make things easier. Whenever someone gets hurt, they'll go to Anita.
History: She moved from the Hoenn Region to the Johto Region when she was thirteen. She lived in Goldenrod city where she met Kim and they started dating. She has a lot of other friends as well and was sad when the Gijinka had to flee in different directions but at least she got to stay with her boyfriend.
Her brother is a Roserade Gijinka but he and her parents, another Roselia and Roserade, were sent to a different location. She manages to still call him, though.
She has one Pokemon, a Meganium named Hale. He helps her with her potions and medicine. Oddly enough, Hale seems to have made friends with the Ninetales Gijinka's Luxray. She doesn't mind the Luxray but is very cautious of the Ninetales. Her grass type would be no match for his fire type. Still, at least she has Kim to protect her.
Attire: A denim skirt down to her knees, a white top and a yellow jacket. She wears a blue rose earring on her left ear and a red one on her right ear. On her feet are two brown high-heel boots.
Pokemon features: Her hair is long, flowing green with three spikes tied with red ribbon sticking out of the top. Two bracelets, a red and a blue, are permenantly worn on her left and right arms. Her skin is delicate and peach.

Name: Uriah Michael Elliot
Gijinka species: Mismagius
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Personality: Thinks life is just a game and the only way to play is to joke your way outta things. It's almost impossible to get him to take something seriously. He loves playing tricks on people and watching them freak out. But he is loyal. He'd never purposely harm anyone he loves.
History: He's originally from the Sinnoh Region but, when he was about six, his father and mother divorced and moved to Johto with his father. There, his father started to date an old friends, a Vulpix Gijinka. The mother of the Nintales Gijinka. He and his brother don't speak or get on that well, especially since his brother learnt the attack Dark Pulse. Now, if Uriah does something wrong, he knows he'll suffer from it. So he mostly keeps away from his family and hangs out with his friends.
He was upset when he first learned the Gijinka had to flee into hiding. But now, he'll do anything to stop the mistreatment of Gijinkas everywhere. He's good friends with Kim, the Eevee Gijinka. But his best friend was Anita's brother, the Roserade who, unfortunately, was sent to a different retreat.
