Welcome young trainer to the Sinnoh Region. Here trainers can receive a pokemon from the famous Professor Rowan and start out on a journey. Trainers can challenge the eight gyms of the region collecting their badges and once they have all eight they may enter the pokemon league. If one prefers then they may challenge contests instead and collect five ribbons allowing for them to enter the Grand Festival for a chance to be top coordinator. Of course the region isn't fully peaceful as a new organization known as Team Galactic has appeared as of late.


So ignoring my crappy introduction, this is a revamp of a previous RP. It is a journey RP and I will take 4 to 5 RPers. BlazingQuilava is my co-GM. Make sure you read and understand the rules before signing up.

RULES:
1)All BMGF rules apply
2)No bunnying or godmodding
3)If you're going to be inactive for an extended period of time then let me know.
4)Battles and contests are anime style.
5)What pokemon are on what route is decided by me. If you want to catch a certain pokemon then let me know and I'll tell you where you can catch it.
6)I will say when you can evolve a pokemon. The same with them learning moves.
7)No one should have the same pokemon. (pokemon with multiple possible evolutions like eevee are the only exception)
8)Romance is allowed but keep it PG-13

GM and co-GM word is law. You will get three warnings for breaking rules before being banned from the RP.

@Kyouhei; You're character needs a lot more fleshing out. I can't imagine what his character is like with that personality really and you should at least give more history than that. Also they will all get their pokemon and pokedex from professor Rowan. I should have mentioned that before. I would like if you created your own character but I'll let appearance pass.
 
Name: Justin Gaines

Age: 13

Gender: Male

Hometown: Ecruteak City, Johto. Though he could've competed in the Johto League, Justin really wanted to explore the Sinnoh region and see all the incredibly sights from the tall Mt Coronet to the Sunyshore beaches.

Appearance: Justin is about 4'9" and he has a very slender build with a light skintone, slightly underweight as well. He has blonde hair that is styled somewhat and he has a set of green eyes. Justin typically wears a white tshirt with a red and black plaid short sleeved shirt over it, also wearing a pair of brown cargo shorts. He also wears a pair of black and white sneakers.

Personality: Justin is typically an easy going adventurous teen who is very eager and open to meet others. He tends to be very caring of his friends and Pokemon which he often has a soft spot for, also having a certain hatred for those who abuse, mistreat, and don't care about Pokemon. While Justin is usually good-natured, caring, and kind boy he can be a bit too bold for his own good and he seems to have trouble letting go of certain things and can be a little sensitive at times. He also seems to be so focused on his goal that he forgets that he is his own person and that he shouldn't feel the need to live up to some reputation others have made out for him.

History: Justin comes from a rather accomplished family, being the son of a gym leader and a former top coordinator, as well as having a brother who is a very talented and strong trainer. His three passions begun at an early age, living in Ecruteak City. His love of battling stemmed from continually watching his father face other trainers. His love of adventure came from his curiosity as a child he explored the outskirts of Ecruteak City. He also was very friendly and caring towards Pokemon he met on the outskirts and this made him want his own Pokemon. When his parents saw this at a young age, they sent Justin away to the Violet City Pokemon Academy.

At the academy, Justin quickly learned about what it takes to be a trainer and he was shown to be easily able to connect to most Pokemon the trainers were given in the school to practice with. Despite his ability to connect, he was continually pressured by other students about the reputation his family had because of their accomplishments. He felt as if he had to prove he was as good as his family and he was usually outsmarted by the more harsh students. He picked up the basic skills of Pokemon training and battles and he managed to pass the academy's program. This left him a little frustrated, realizing he had such a reputation to live up to. It didn't help that his older brother always pressured him, doubted him, and looked down upon him. It really seemed to affect Justin, though he couldn't give up...he had to prove himself somehow...

When Justin turned 13 he decided he'd finally set out on his journey and though his parents suggested he'd go to New Bark Town to pick up his starter and travel through Johto, he decided against that. He wanted to see some different sights, having traveled around Johto a bit with his mother while she was being sent to film on a certain location. He decided he'd travel to the Sinnoh region to compete in its league, explore the vast region, and hopefully prove to himself and others like his brother that he could be as good as his family, though he seems to forget that he is his own person and shouldn't feel forced to live up to any reputation.

Profession: Trainer

Starter Pokemon: Chimchar

Other: OPPA GANGNAM STYLE!!!
 
What can you not get out of my character?
 
What can you not get out of my character?

He's energetic? Okay any character can be energetic at times. Doesn't like evil okay well how does he act about that. More things like that. The background as well. Gives us more into his family life or his life around twinleaf. Look at mine and BlazingQuilava's as examples.
 
Okay, at other roleplays, stuff like this would do, I was used to that all.

Name: Lucas Diamond
Age: 12
Gender: Male
Hometown: Twinleaf town

He also loves Pokemon battling. He has a strong interest in Dragon type, and Water type.
History: (I would mention something about Bary, but that would be like claiming another character.) His hometown is Twinleaf, where he lives with his mother.His family is reasonably pour compared to families from the other towns. And his father left to pursue his dream of becoming a gym leader when Lucas was really young. Nothing much happens at his regular town. Though they have never seen each other in a long time, he still sends letters back to them. On Lucas's tenth birthday, he sent him a pokeball containing a Riolu, which he nicknamed Anubis.

He starting his journey at age of 12 because he feels he would be starting to soon. He wants tp eventually get a Psuedo-legendary, for he loved learning about them when he was younger.

My SU: Lassiter. xD

Name: Kimberly "Kim" Hayes
Gender: Female
Age: 13
Hometown: Vermillion City, Kanto

Appearance: She has long, slightly-curled, light, hazel brown hair, reaching somewhere in between her shoulders and mid-back. The color of her eyes is jade green, while her skin's complexion is pale and white. Her usual attire of choice is a white shirt, cream-colored jeans, as well as white sneakers that have orange and blue streaks and designs. Kimberly stands at about five feet six inches, which is about average. She has a silver bracelet, a "lucky charm" as she calls it, on her left wrist. When she's alone, she likes to read books and train her Pokemon. Her hobby is research as well as hanging out with friends.

Personality: She has a very quirky personality, if you will. She is usually friendly and hardworking, but at certain times, she's just sore and a "mary-sue". She's very good when it comes to navigation, so you can guarantee she'll never get lost. She does not like it when her ideas are challenged, and likes to be the leader-like person. She is, on the other hand, a very caring and, sometimes, gentle person. She loves the Pokemon creatures and her friends. Kim does tend to get hot-tempered at times, but that's only when you get on her bad side.

During battle, she likes to have a strategy at the ready. Kin is a pretty straight-forward girl, so if anything goes wrong, she'll usually probably still stick to her original plan, with the occasional tweak here ant there. Her strategy is usually going all-out offensive, she doesn't really use status moves. Kimberly is, however, a fan of status ailments--as long as it's the opponent inflicted with the sickness; her favorite being freeze and toxic. She loves water types as well as ice types, but she's pretty much fine with any Pokemon.

History: Kimberly is the middle child of three children, her younger brother being the only boy. Their parents loved Pokemon, being famous people in the region of Kanto--her mother was one of the Elite Four who specialized in ice types, while her father was a very well-known fisherman as well as being one of the officers of the Vermillion City Harbor. Her older sister, Kate, was a great fisher, too, though never really ventured further out into the Pokemon world. The Hayes's lived in Vermillion City, Kanto.

At an early age, Kim was taught how to fish and battle. She proved to be great in both fields, showing interest in mostly water and ice types, this was, of course, not surprising. She loved to watch her mother and sister battle various opponents with very different strengths and strategies.

She soon wanted to explore the world of Pokemon more, thus, with her parents' permission, she sailed to the Sinnoh region at the age of 13 to start her Pokemon adventure. She chose the water-type starter, Piplup, for obvious reasons.

Profession: Trainer
Starter
: Piplup

Gender: Male

Age: 15

Hometown: Goldenrod City, Johto

Appearance: Miles is average height and weight for his age, and also of average build. He has short-ish brown hair that he keeps coiffed to perfection. Miles is usually well dressed and enjoys to wear the latest fashion trends having been influenced by Goldenrod City and its status. His outfits are never extreme, but he enjoys looking nice and being respected by his peers. As with his dress, most would consider him and handsome and most can tell that he is quite well off and from a higher class than they are.

Personality: Miles is a little snobbish, after growing up in the upper class of Goldenrod City. He feels like others are usually below him and he can probably do most things better than they could. He is typically easy going, but he enjoys to have a routine and structue to his daily activities. If people can tolerate him, Miles usually gets along with most people, and enjoys having popular friends who are usually attractive, which Miles considers himself to also be.

History: Miles was born and raised in Goldenrod City. His father worked as a banker for one of the large financial institutions locates in the city, resulting in his family having a large amount of money. This created challenges in Miles life as he grew up, he wasn’t used to associating with people who were not as rich as he was. He went to one of the private schools located in the city but never felt like he fit in and always wanted to train Pokémon. Eventually, after begging his parents, they let him go to Sinnoh to begin his own Pokemon journey.

Other: Lassiter

Starter Pokémon: Turtwig
 
Sooo, am I allowed to claim another character?
 
@Kyouhei!; they get their Pokemon and pokedex from Rown at the beginning of the RP and I'm going to say no to the Barry part. Edit that and then you'll be accepted being I never accepted you yet.

I can set up the start up now but if I do I have to know that you guys will be patient for my posts tha remove the story along. My computer crashed yesterday so I'm working from my phone. It works slow at times an I also have to do homework using it. Being the email system doesn't work either ill only know of posts by going on the forums. I don't want to come on to see a bunch o pointless posts because of impatience. If you guys won't be able I have patience then the start up will have to wait until I get my other computer back from being fixed.
