The city of Castelia in Unova was now completely ready for the night, people had gathered around Castelia Square where the opening ceremonies for the newly announced Pro League was now about to start. Paparazzi, stars, elite battlers, they all gathered in the same place just for this occassion. Among them stood the man that was in charge of the whole thing. He was a tall man that seemed to be in his mid or late thirsties. He was wearing a black coloured tux along with a black tie. "Thank you for tuning into Unova Live, we are standing here in front of Castelia Dome waiting for the doors to open and for the ceremony announcing the beginning of the long awaited Pro League!" the reporter said before turning to the man. "I am standing here with the man that made all of this possible John Clad."

John smiled and nodded his head at the reporter. "It's nice to be here, and I'm sure you're all expecting to see what'll come out of all of this." John nodded his head. "I've been contacted that the trainers we selected will be here soon."

OOC: Your first post should be about your character getting to the dome, also in your post make an OOC part and give your character a nickname for them to be refer to, something that may intertwine with their abilities or personality.
 
OOC: Alright, Klaus will be..."Man's Man Klaus." Or just "Man's Man."

Klaus was thrilled when he won the Indigo League. He had promised his mother that he would buy her a nice house, and promised himself he would finally get a motorcycle. Unfortunately, the house had costed a little more than he thought. Which was why he was driving to Castellia hunched over in a hot pink moped that was much too small for him.
"Yeah, well, screw you too!" He yelled at a driver who laughed at him as he passed by. He was very grateful that he just had to get to the stage. He really, really hoped that they would cut him riding his moped out.
 
Mike traversed the crowed streets of Castelia City in a bright red convertable driven by an older driver while Mike and his Wigglytuff, Yui sat in the back seat waving to his fans on the street, some of them fans of his contest wins while others were fans of his music. "Its great to be here." Mike shouted as Yui waved to the fans. Mike decided to have some fun and chose to wear a pair of black cosplay cat ears and a fake tail so he looked a cat boy from an anime.

The car finally arrived at the dome and Mike and Yui left the car to enter it.

OOC: Mike will be known as "The Shining Star" or "Shining Star MiKE".
 
"Fifteen seconds Mr. Snow." The pilot of the small aircraft reported to the young man, who nodded and flashed a smile. He hit a button on his phone, now taking video.

"Hey fans, it's me Vance." His shimmering smile would light up any room. "Just about to make my grand entrance into Castelia and I figured I might as well do something special." He stated, flashing the camera towards the camera towards the pilot for a moment, he giving a thumbs up and a nod. "So here we go!" Without a warning he ran and jumped out of the plane. Interestingly enough, he wasn't wearing a parachute or any protective gear. All he was wearing as he hurtled to the ground towards certain death was a black tuxedo with a red tie. His blond hair was flapping wildly in the wind as he got closer to the center of the square. He was doing the calculations in his head, how much longer he could enjoy the intensity of free fall and of terminal velocity before he was forced to slow himself down. One thousand feet above the ground he pulled a single Poké ball out of his pocket. Five hundred feet above the ground he felt for the release button. One hundred feet from the ground, Vance could make out the shocked faces of the gathered crowd as he sped like a missile towards their heads. Fifty feet from the ground he released his Gardevoir. Ten feet from the ground the psychic type teleported them the rest of the way down, stopping their momentum from killing them both as well as anyone they may have landed on. Instead Vance and his Gardevoir landed gracefully feet first in the center of the onlookers. "And that's a wrap. Great work Princess." Vance said with a smile to his Gardevoir as he stopped the recording of his skydive. With a wave, a smile and a wink towards the crowds, Vance headed inside.


OOC: Hmmmmmm... for a nickname.... 'Danger Zone' will work nicely.
 
John smiled as he saw two of the trainers that had been picked now making their way into the dome. Fans began cheering louder and the reporters began to crowd around both Vance and Mike. "Excuse me I'm a reporter from Context News, Mike how does it feel to be one of the few picked to partake in the Pro League, do you feel pressured because of your background towards contests or do you think that would give you an advantage?"

Another reporter turned to Vance. "Mr. Snow, a lot of your fans would like to know what you think of this tournament in general, you are known as a very skillful trainer and you other endeavours have also given you lots of fame." the reporter stated. "Do you think you'll be up to par with the rest of the trainers."

"They seem to be crowding around them." John turned to look at his left, a young girl was making her way towards him, she had long black colored hair that went down to her waist a pair of green colored eyes and soft white skin. She was wearing a black colored gala dress that hugged her curves but she seemed to be paying attention to the reporters.

"So nice you could join us Valerie." John smiled.

"Be quiet father." Valerie frowned. "I only came here for practice, I want to be a reporter myself so this would be the best chance if I'm able to get the up close information on what happens in this league."
 
Mike turned to the reporter and replied. "It's great, i don't feel pressured by my Contest background what so ever. If anything, it will only be more confusing for my opponents because of the fact that i can attack by combining moves or by turning my defense into a strong offense with sheer elegance. Also, by using contest flare, i can easily defend and attack at the same time. But it doesn't matter to me if I win or lose, as long as i can show that us Coordinators aren't to be underestimated."
 
Princess the Gardevoir just looked annoyed at the reporter's questioning of her trainer's skills. Vance rolled his eyes at the psychic type's actions as he returned her to her Poké ball. "I think you have your answer." Vance said with a chuckle. "I think we'll be just fine."
 
OOC: For a nickname... Hm... Carrie could have "Fiery Bullet Carrie".

Carrie's plane had just landed in Castelia City, and she hurried out to get to the stage. "Wow, Castelia is such a pretty city! And it's near the ocean..." She said in awe. Looking at her watch, she hoped she wasn't late, but unfortunately, she forgot the time she was supposed to be there. Therefore, she quickly ran to the stage. Upon setting sight of the dome, she noticed a man already there. "Oh, I've heard of him. Mr. Snow, if I'm right..." She mumbled while slowly making her way inside the dome.
 
Both Vance and Mike were allowed to approach John as well as Valerie. The man smiled at the two of them and stretched out his hand. "It's nice to meet you gentlemen."

The reporters then turned to look at Carrie before they started walking towards her. "What do you have to say Carrie, you were selected as a trainer in this league at the age of 17, do you think your Pokemon are ready for this tournament?"
 
"Its nice to meet you to." Mike greeted while shaking John's hand. Yui then waved to John and Vellerie. "This is my partner, Yui." Mike introduced.
 
"Reporters...?" Carrie mumbled, surprised to see reporters approach, but then her expression quickly turned to some confidence. "I'm really glad I was chosen as a trainer in the league! My Pokemon definitely have what it takes. Despite how some of them may seem, they all do the best they can, and that's more than enough!"
 
Klaus hid his moped in the bushes, praying to Arceus nobody got him on camera. He walked onto the grounds of the tournament, Casper, his Banette, floating behind him. He was quite tempted to go and hug a boy about his age with kitty ears, but thought better of it, instead strolling confidently to the stage where he figured he was supposed to go.
 
Blushing slightly from the pat on the head, Carrie looked over. "Thanks for the welcome! I'm doing pretty great." She smiled. "What's your name?"
 
"I'm John Clad and I'm responsible for holding this event." John nodded his head as he introduced himself. "And this is my daughter Valerie."

"Hello." Valerie waved. She looked at the crowd, everyone was starting to get into the dome. "I wonder how many are left."
 
OOC: A nickname eh? How about, Nonchalant Nate

Nate had been to Castelia City before, but he was always impressed by the scale of the city, it was massive. Wanting to look as successful as possible, Nate found himself in the back of a black towncar, with one of his assistants driving. Pulling up to the dome, he found that some other trainers had already arrived, and seemed to be taking pictures from the press and answering questions. He decided to dress up for the event, wearing a simple black suit with a skinny black tie. "Oh no, I really hope I'm not late" he thought to himself sarcastically.
 
"You're the one who's holding this?!" Carrie blurt out in surprise. Covering her mouth from being so loud she then looked at Valerie. "Hello Valerie. Nice to meet you two!"

OOC: This is what Luna is wearing since I suck at describing things.
Black-Lace-Dresses-2.jpg
Also, Luna is nicknamed "Miss Murder". :3

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

The infamous AFI song 'Miss Murder' blared through the speakers as Luna made her appearance. Her hair was curled and it fell loosely to the middle of her back. She had eye-liner and mascara on so it would 'pop' against her heterochromatic eye colors (left eye is green; right eye is blue).The final facial makeup was bold red lipstick. She was wearing a black lace dress that went to her knees. Also, she had a red clutch she held that contrasted against the black dress and black high heels. Winter, her shiny Ninetales, walked majestically beside her. Behind her, a girl around seventeen was trying to fix the final touches on Luna's hair. The girl had white hair with black streaks and it was curled. The girl's dress was short, silver, and strapless. She also had silver heels.

"You look amazing, Luna," the girl smiled, "Show them what you're made of." Luna turned to the girl and smiled sweetly.

"Thanks, Kayla," she whispered before walking proudly into the crowd.
 
"She sure knows how to make an entrance." Valerie pointed out as she noticed both Luna and Nate beginning to make their way into the dome.

"Nate Parker, what does it feel to be here after having just won the Sinnoh League not too long ago?" one reporter asked from Nate's side.

"Luna Hunter, might I say that was a spectacular entrance." another reporter chimed as she walked along with Luna. "Are you nervous, out of all the participants you come from the humbliest of background yet you are among the best, how do you feel?"
 
"I take it one day at a time," Luna answered honestly. She didn't like standing around for the papparazzi, but she figured that she might as well get used to it. Winter seemed annoyed at the reporters and camera flashes. She let out an annoyed growl. Kayla bent down and tried feeding Winter some dry poffin.

"It's okay, girl," Kayla soothed, "We'll rest when we get to where we need to be. Just for now, try to bear it for Luna's sake." Winter nodded simply before taking a bite of the poffin.
