THE CHRONICLES

This, as the title suggests, is the OOC Thread and RPG Discussion thread. We shall be discussing the events in the RP and settling various issues that may come up. We shall start by sharing our character SU's.




Here is my SU:


Name: Ali Can S. (He never shares his last name)

Nickname (optional): AC

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Straight

Training Career: League

Birthplace: Mossdeep City, Hoenn

Starter Pokémon: Abra (Male)--It shall know one egg move to ease things up

Appearance: AC is 190 cm (which is about 6'2'') and weighs around 82 kg (approximately 180.7 lbs). He has messy, medium length hair. His hair is pitch-black and his hair is quite bushy. His irises are also pitch-black. He does not have any facial hair nor does he want any. His body has a high fat ratio and low muscle ratio. He is not that well-built, but due to his height he does seem thin compared to his actual weight. The majority of his fat is around his thighs.

As for his clothing the following can be said: He has three different outfits that he is comfortable with it. Before leaving Mossdeep to start his journey, he worked in the Space Center. Thus, he has a white labcoat that reaches his feet. Sometimes he is seen with that white labcoat on. His white labcoat has one large pocket over his heart, which he uses to place pens, important cards and other things. In addition, on both sides of his labcoat, near the thighs, are pockets. He usually keeps them empty but he does sometimes use them to keep his only Pokeball. His second outfit is his sports outfit. It consists of a black hoodie with a white eagle (if you say eagles don't exist in the Pokemon World, then think of it as a White-Black colored Braviary) on the back and black sweatpants with three white stripes running down sides. His third outfit is his black suit. It consists of a black top hat with a white stripe, a black blouse and grey tie, a black tux and black pants with black dress shoes. He plans to use his second outfit during his travels (i.e. travelling from town to town). He plans to use his third outfit during his battles as he believes that he needs to look his best when he battles.

Personality: Both of AC's parents work at the Mossdeep Space Center, thus they are barely ever home. What's more is that AC has a younger brother. Since his parents are rarely home, AC had to look after his brother at a very young age. This thought him to be responsible. Furthermore, it thought him to prioritize as he had sacrifice his free time and play time with his friends in order to look after his brother. He learned that duty came before fun. Moreover, since both his parents are scientists, they gave extreme importance to AC's education. Thus, AC's priority as a child was to learn about mathematics, the sciences and other classes rather than Pokemon. Thus, AC did not have the same experience with Pokemon when compared with most of his peers. Instead, he had intimate relations with books from his father's personal library. This resulted with AC being smarter and wiser compared to his peers. Furthermore, all the studying and his perseverance to keep on studying made him extremely determined. This intelligence and wisdom made him someone who everyone looked up to and came to for advice. He became doubly venerable with his radiating smile. He wanted to reciprocate the love he received from his friends, thus he became extremely generous. All in all, he turned into a leader among his peers. However, like every leader, AC also has tragic flaws. First, he still has a cry-baby streak. He sometimes cries when something doesn't go his way. Sometimes he becomes extremely angry and loses his reasoning skills. He starts to yell and can't calm down. His rage is best compared to volcano erupting, however this rage is quite rare. Furthermore, he is not that close with Pokemon which is troublesome for him but through this journey he desires to resolve that problem.

Personal History: AC was born in Mossdeep City to a family of scientists. Both of his parents worked at the Mossdeep Space Center. Thus, as a toddler, he spent his days in the Space Center alongside his parents. Thus, at a young age, he was exposed to the Space Center and the tasks of scientists. As he grew a bit older, he began to go to school. He would spend the morning in school and the afternoon in the Space Center. Soon, his brother was born and at the age of 8, he was responsible of looking after his newly born brother. Thus, he barely had any time for Pokemon. His life consisted of looking after his brother, going to school and spending time in the Space Center.

However, all his friends spent time with their parents Pokemon. This caused a longing for Pokemon within AC, but he knew that his parents would say that his studies come first. Nevertheless, he decided to ask for a Pokemon for his tenth birthday and to his surprise his parents accepted. His father took AC to a batch of grass to catch him a Pokemon. AC told his father that he wanted an Abra. His father called upon his Alakazam and they began to search for a Ralts. They had started the search for a Ralts around noon and as the sun set on Mossdeep during the summer day, his father still had not found a Abra. He didn't want to let down his son so he promised AC that he would stay up all night looking for the Abra. AC, too, wanted to watch his father catch a Ralts but sleep overcame him and AC went to bed. When he got up to go to school, he was faced with a surprise. Across his bed stood a Ralts. His father had kept his promise and caught a Abra. AC was extremely happy. He ran to the Ralts and hugged him. Abra had taken a liking to AC right away. This was the start of a brand new friendship. It also marked AC's first interaction with actual Pokemon.

However, AC's parents' restrictions prevented him from pursuing his goal to challenge the Pokemon League and travel the various regions of the Pokemon World. He had to first become a scientist as that was his parents' dream. Thus, he and Ralts barely battled but studied together. Sometimes they would practice Abra's moves but that was it. At the age of 13, AC had finished his education. With his intelligence, he began to work as an assistant to the scientists in the Space Center along with his Ralts. After four years of assisting scientists, AC was finally allowed to become an actual scientist in the Space Center. His parents were also proud of him as AC had fulfilled their dreams for him at the age of 17. Thus, they allowed AC to start living independently. AC could finally do what he wanted. He talked with the director and told him how he had always wanted to win the Pokemon League and travel the world meeting new Pokemon along the way. His director was also a trainer once and he could easily empathize with AC. Thus, he allowed AC to pursue his dream as a trainer only if he was to comeback and work at the Space Center once his journey was over. AC accepted without hesitation. Thus, with his Ralts he set out start his journey to become a Champion. Though he had his Abra for seven years, AC and Abra had no battling experience and thus it was as if AC was going to get to know Abra all over again along with meeting new Pokemon. AC consulted his friends Tate and Liza, the gym leaders of Mossdeep City and they told him that the journey would strengthen his bond with his Abra and teach him true friendship. Thus, he decided to start off by meeting Professor Oak and starting his journey in the Kanto region.
 
Hey acs, here is my SU again.

Username: MidnightGhost

Name: Graham Clarke

Age: 14

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Straight

Contest/League: League

Appearance: Gray stands at average height and is in good shape for a fourteen year old boy. His messy brown hair hangs just above his shoulders and reaches down to his ocean blue eyes.

Gray is usually seen wearing a dark red hoody with grey stripes going across it, a plain white t-shirt and black jeans with a pair of white and black skate shoes. He carries a white and blue messenger bag that carries all his necessities such as Pokeballs and potions etc.

Personality: Gray is friendly, social and open. He practically lives for friendship, lively company and good conversation. He has great confidence in his opinions but respects those who disagree.

Laid-back and open minded with a great sense of humour, Gray is generally popular and is liked by most people that he meets. He is usually helpful and feels guilty saying no to those close to him.

History: Gray lived a luxurious but ordinary life in Celadon City, being pretty spoilt by his rich parents but he never took anything for granted and always appreciated what he was given. He lived in a pretty big house, but not big enough to be considered a mansion and went to a private school that taught the essentials to battling, travelling and being a good trainer.

Gray was about eight years old when he started at the private school and he was given the choice out of five different Pokemon eggs and would have to care for it until it hatched and whatever was inside would be his. After about a week or so, the egg hatched into a male Magby which he then named Pyro. Since then the two have been pretty much inseparable.

A few days after his fourteenth birthday his family had received bad news from the police force that his older brother, Robert, had gone missing. It was that day that Graham decided he would go out and search for his brother. He never told his parents why he was actually leaving and they believed he was just going on a normal journey.

Starter Pokemon: Magby

Other: Is besiktas a type of cookie?

Okay, so will this play out like a normal journey RP? Are there any major plans plot-wise or is that up for discussion?
 
Well...in essence, it is your ordinary journey RP. I do want to insert a villainous team however that will constantly reappear in each region. I don't want to do one of the teams in the games or anime so I'd prefer if we all came up with a new team. This team will appear every now and then (perhaps twice in each region, just for some different action aside from the gym battles). That is one thing we should discuss.

A second thing is this: We don't have any coordinators for the Kanto region (hopefully we'll have at least one for Johto when we accept new members). So, we really don't have to do the contests. If you guys want, however, we can stick around the town and go to a contest as spectators. It won't take too long perhaps a couple of posts would be enough for the contests. Even if we don't do it for every town, I think we should do it in Pewter or perhaps in Viridian (the first time we get there) to get a feeling of how contests are and perhaps our characters could pay a visit to the Grand Festival and watch the final match. This is another thing that I want to hear your opinions on.


Oh, and a third thing, you guys can catch any Pokemon you want as long as you catch the Pokemon in a habitat that suits it. For instance, you can electrike in the Power Plant. However, I'd prefer if we didn't catch that many Sinnoh or Unova Pokemon and rather stick to Kanto, Johto and perhaps Hoenn Pokemon.
 
Alright then, the contest idea sounds pretty good. I think we should do that. I'll try come up with some ideas for the evil team tomorrow or something and maybe edit this post or just post a new one, but for now I have to head off as I have school in the morning. See ya.
 
And here is my sign up once more

Username: BlazingQuilava.

Name: Justin Gaines

Age: 13

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Straight

Contest/League: Kanto League

Appearance: Justin is about 5"6' and he has a fairly slender body. He has a fair skin tone, short blond hair, and green eyes. He is often seen wearing a pair of brown cargo shorts, as well as a red tshirt with white sleves and black trims. He also wears a pair of red wristbands.

Personality: Justin is shown to be a fairly outgoing and adventurous trainer, often acting friendly towards others. He's shown to be a paticularly caring trainer towards his friends(who he's always willing to help) and especially his Pokemon. Despite his friendly and outgoing character, he is shown to be fairly impulsive and paranoid at times. He also often takes the words of others to heart, and will even hold grudges for a long time.

History: Justin is the son of the Ecruteak City Gym Leader, Morty as well as a world renowned chef Rosalina. He grew up watching his father fight other trainers, looking to get their Fog Badge. He also grew up admiring his older brother Tyler who happens to be one of the most powerful trainers in all of Johto. He often feels like he's living in the shadows of his family.

At the age of 10 he was sent to a Pokemon Academy in Johto by his parents upon his request. He wished to learn how to battle so he'd already have all the basic knowledge when he'd begin. Once he graduated from the academy he felt he was ready enough, though his mother wouldn't let him begin, fearing that he'd be in danger with Team Rocket on the loose, and another rather small criminal organization, known as D-Generation M.

After a year and no news was heard about the two gangs, his mother finally let him travel. He decided he'd go to Kanto. He is looking forward to getting his first Pokemon and he really wants to take on the league.

Starter Pokemon: Oshawott
 
I shall be posting the Start-Up sometime today. It's up to each RPer to decide on how they want to meet up with a fellow RPer. Quilava and Calvin have to go to Oak to get their starter Pokemon. Midnight and I will go to Oak to get our Pokedexes and trainer cards, etc. Since my character comes from Mossdeep I'll have him get off at Vermillion and then hop on another ship to get to Pallet Town. It's up to you guys on how you want your characters to get there.
