I wish someone would just come along and do Latias so we could start already. I guess either me or Aura could, but I don't want to, and if Aura does it, then I'd be the only person who has a Gijinka character as my only character.

^ No, we'd still have to wait for GH and Zalck to repost their Sign Ups. :/
I haven't seen Zalck around though...

I haven't seen Zalck around lately either. I wonder if he's still at camp? Hopefully a few more people will join. Its sometimes difficult for people to control more than one character...

I don't think anyone's seen Zalck around, for that matter, really.
Name: Marec Golen
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Link: Latios (M)
Description: Marec has an average build, partially contributed to his short lived career as a trainer and his travels within the region. His silvery, gray hair is often pulled back in a loose ponytail, accenting the green of his eyes. Tanned skin sets him apart from his peers.
Clothingwise, he tends to keep it rather simple. Blue or black jeans, a pair of green and black running shoes and a gray shirt, the collar of which is white.
Whether he wears a jacket or not depends on the climate/weather. Oftentimes he can be seen with a simple brown jacket slung over his shoulder.
As far as his pendant goes, it came embedded into a metal, watchline band. The emerald of the stone pendant is a glossy green, embedded within a shining blue and white wing shape.
Personality: Marec is an idividual crafted from his expeiriences. He often tries to help others out, to gain their trust and show that he cares. While being a somewhat trusting individual, he's wary of giving people second chances, making it hard to gain his trust back once it's been lost. It is this part of his personally that helps make him one of the most loyal people one could possibly meet.
When confronted about his past however, he locks up. He refuses to talk about it outside of small details and often doesn't show much emotion in relation to the past. Instead, he prefers to but his past behind him and move forwards towards he future. The only people who can get him to talk about his past are those who he considers the best of friends. Most people would think this was extreme, though he himself sees it as just another way of coping with life.
History: At the age of ten Marec was given a Torchic by his sister who had caught one during one of her vacations in Hoenn. The two then decided that they would journey together throughout the region of Unova.
Two years into their journey, Team Plasma finally suceeded in taking over the region. Refusing to give up his Pokemon Marec and his sister had to watch as all but their first pokemon who hadd refused to leave after being released, were taken away from them. Returning to Black City their home. his sister took up a job there and Marec himself went back to school.
Six months ago his sister was taken away by a pair of police and has not been seen since. In that time he has since managed to obtain a license in order to keep his Torchic. As of recent he has taken on the role of being chosen by Latios and set out to search for him in addition to whoever was bound to Latias.

Hai guys.
Yeah, camp. Time. Life. Brother breaking Computer. But I'm here now. This next week is another camp which will... slow things, but I will still be able to be around.
And, Copy-Pasta.
Literally.
I know the timing isn't as precise as before, but if it works out, then it works out. I can't see a thing to change, really. Of course, that could just be the sleep deprivation speaking. Being a camp counselor is hard.
The Basics
Name: Nathanel Coyier
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Link: Genesect, Maculine
What You Need To Know
Description: Nathanel is like many other Icirrus City natives: He is tall and pale. This comes from living in a cold climate; where the sun doesn’t always shine the brightest, especially in the winter months. Nathan stands tall at 6’2”, and weighs 210lbs. His body style is pretty fit and muscular. While Nathan is strong, his muscles aren’t really defined. He has dark, dark brown curly hair, which does not resemble natives; it comes from his dad’s parents who were from Kanto. He has light blue eyes, and a well rounded out face.
Nate still wears his attire from Icirrus. The city is a cold place, which is why he wears so many different layers of clothing. He has dark, loose jeans that go down to his feet, were he wears combat boots, which he always leaves unlaced. The jeans are held up by a white belt. He wears a long-sleeved black shirt, covered by a purple jacket that has many pockets; on both sleeves, on the chest, inside the jacket, and then in the normal places, too. The purple jacket is trimmed with white.
His pendant is something he loves to wear. He feels as though it emanates power, and it gives him confidence. He wears it on a very loose chain around his neck, so that he pendant actually sits in the middle of his chest. When the LED lights on the pendant light up, you can see them through the shirt, so it isn’t the best hiding method.
Personality:Lead, Follow, or get the F*** out of my way!
To get to know Nathan, you have to get to know his past. He grew up a pretty normal kid. The only thing not normal about him was his determination. Once set on a task, he would finish it no matter the costs. He tended to stand up for his beliefs, no matter what anyone else thought. He didn’t necessarily care too much about what others thought; actually he didn’t care about others at all, either in their thoughts or physically, either. He was somewhat of a bully, pushing people out of his way, yelling at them if they messed up.
However, his parents helped set up straight, and away from the sociopath that you might think he would grow up to be. They pushed him to be perfect. He was always top of class; the smartest, coolest, strongest. His parents pushed him to feel remorse for his actions, which does stick with him today. He might not care about others while he is doing things, but afterwards, he feels bad about what he has done to them.
With these character attributes, you can see that Nate was a very extroverted person; loud and proud. He always vocalized his opinions, and doesn’t apologize for much. Relationships with people only start when completely necessary.
That isn’t to say Nathan doesn’t like people. He likes meeting them, discussing with them, and using them. Friendships to develop, but Nate is really bad at burning bridges with others. Those that learn to accept and forgive him become his closest friends, but many of those are either dead, locked up, or on the run.
Which is why he hides from his family. He loves them very much, his sister and his mother, but he knows his reckless way of life can only hurt them, and that he will hate himself later if anything happened to them, like what happened to his father.
History:Born to an upper-middle class family, Nathanael Coyier lived a pretty nice life. The town of Icirrus had a school, which he attended. He and his sister always played together, living a life with Pokemon until Nathan was 11. Up until that time, he had enjoyed his life very much. He was a very active member of the Pokemon Fan Club, and liked to go watch battles at Brycen’s Ice Gym, though he never did quite like the ice type itself. Many people of Icirrus City were practiced the DragonSpiral religion, a religion that established that all the Legendary Pokemon were created in Dragonspiral tower, which was the oldest building in existence. This explained the ancient pokemon who lived there, Golett, which Nate gained a special liking to, even as a child.
Growing up, his family visited Dragonspiral Tower often, and kids would go there to play all the time. Nate and his siser, Orelia, spent a lot of time there together, and got to know the place well. Nate was 10 when N came through the town on his quest, and Nate even was watching as N released the mighty Zekrom from the stone his had been captured in. Nathan was very scared of this event, and he immediate did not trust any of Team Plasma’s plans or ideals.
There were also he watched as Hilda watched N, and Cheren and Brycen entered. Of course, Nathan did not know the others besides Brycen, but he watched as they vowed to defeat N, to continue on. Again, Brycen's determination inspired Nate.
Nathan tried to tell his parents about it, but they were not ones to buck the system. They did what was expected of them, and Team Plasma was the going movement; it made sense to them at the time, at least, that’s what the children were told.
At 10, the day after the incident with N, Nate’s parents gave him an ultraball, and said to go catch a Pokemon. They knew that if Team Plasma succeeded, Nate wouldn’t have much longer to say he caught a pokemon. Nathan had already developed a relationship with one of the Golett, and had no problem catching the Ghost Pokemon.
They were together for less than a month before Team Plasma had total domination, and required the release of Pokemon.
However, even as the years went by, Golem and Nate stayed connected, and even trained in Dragonspiral together occasionally.
When Team Plasma came to Icirrus for their complete takeover, there was major resistance from the City. The pokemon fan club would have nothing of it, and Brycen did not take kindly to the idea, either. Many of the citizens, including Nathan’s dad, stood up to Team Plasma, much to Nate’s surprise. Nathan’s parents had never wanted to buck the system, but his dad was fighting for what he thought was right.
In the battle that ensued, Ghetis himself had to come out to quell the fighting. Ghetis’ pokemon were formidable, and much, much stronger than anyone else in the town, other than Brycen. Nate was able to hid and watch much of the battle, just as he watched N awaken Zekrom. Brycen had Ghetis beat, down to one Pokemon, when Ghetis sent out something no-one in the town had ever seen. The being pressured power everywhere and Nathan couldn't look at it. He cowered in fear at the sound of the Pokemon, and whatever it was; it destroyed what was left of Brycen’s team. As Ghetis gloated in his success, many people that participated in the rebellion were able to escape into the woods or back to their homes, albeit without their pokemon. Team Plasma arrested many people that night, among them were three gym trainers, the President of the Pokemon Fan Club, and Nate’s dad.
Team Plasma did not contact the family, did not let them know about the fate of their father. All Nathan knew was that he was not coming back. It was hard for his family. His sister used to scream in the middle of the night, afraid that Team Plasma was coming for one of them, and his mother fell into a deep depression. Luckily enough, Orellia was able to take over the cooking and cleaning of the house, as well as taking care of their mother.
This continued on for a couple of years. Eventually, the Pokemon Fan Club reformed under a new name: the PAR or Pokemon Agency for Revolution. This group met in secret, at the old club house, and went on missions to gather information or just generally rebel against Team Plasma. They all took code names, and the whole thing was very Mission Impossible-esque. Nathan took the code-name ‘N’ and was considered the leader of the group. They opened up Dragonspiral Tower again, they chased of Plasma goons that where hanging around the city, and many of them had a wild pokemon partner, who had been caught before.
Nathan continued with his golett, and he took the most dangerous jobs, that required strong pokemon. It was on just such a mission that Golett evolved into Golurk, giving ‘N’ the strength he needed to defeat a Team Plasma goon.
Soon after, he left Icirrus City. He knew he needed to do more with PAR, and spread the word even farther. He knew that Anville and Mistralton, but he needed to spread it more. Now that Golurk, still named Golem, could fly, he covertly made his way to Black City, where he had been hiding for the last three years, trying to recruit people to PAR. He has been successful at some, and barely outrunning Team Plasma sometimes. Golem was able to hid in the shadows, using his ghost abilities to do so.
This was, however, until PAR was blown to pieces. Team Plasma uncovered them when they sent an investigation into the defeated grunt at Icirrus, which led to the arrest of many of his friends, which cause fear that ended with the disbanding of PAR in Mistralton, and PAR merged with the other rebel forces in Anville.
It was just now that Nate wanted to give up. He had no friends left, his family he needed to distance himself with so they couldn’t get hurt, like his friends had. He was ready to live a dull life, blending into the fast pace of Black City…

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A. If your character were to die this evening with no opportunity to communicate with anyone, what would they most regret not having told someone? Why haven't they told them yet?
He would regret not telling his father that he loved him more: now that he is gone.
B. Would your character accept $1,000,000 to leave the county and never set foot in it again?
No, unless he thought that for some way it would help defeat Team Plasma to leave.
C. Your character is given the power to kill people simply by thinking of their deaths and twice repeating the word "good-bye." People would die a natural death and no one would suspect them. Are there any situations in which they would use this power? [If they can imagine themselves killing someone indirectly, could they still see doing it if they had to look into the person's eyes and stab the person to death? Have they ever genuinely wanted to kill someone or wished them dead?]
Yes: Nathan would use the hell out of this. He would probably not be able to kill someone while looking in their eyes, but indirectly he could do, even if he didn’t like it.
D. What would constitute a "perfect" evening for your character?
Getting to go home with his WHOLE family, and possibly with a significant other, without worrying about a war.
E. Would your character rather be extremely successful professionally and have a tolerable yet unexciting private life, or have an extremely happy private life and only a tolerable and uninspiring professional life?
Professional life isn’t much to him; no matter what when it comes to jobs, a job is a job that has to be done.
F. If your character could wake up tomorrow having gained any one ability or quality, what would it be?
Foresight.
G. Your character has the chance to meet someone with whom they can have the most satisfying love imaginable - the stuff of dreams. Sadly, they know that in six months the person will die. Knowing that pain that would follow, would they still want to meet that person and fall in love? What if they knew their lover would not die, but instead would betray them? [In love, is intensity or permanence more important to them? How much do they expect from someone who loves them? What would make them feel betrayed by their mate - indifference? Dishonesty? Infidelity?
Love makes Nathan extremely uncomfortable: both with his self identity as well as with others. He had fallen in love before, and been heartbroken. He would probably prefer, currently, to avoid the situation altogether.
H. Does your character prefer being around men or women? Do their closest friends tend to be men or women? He tends to hang out with guys, but girls who are tough and determined and useful stick around him too. Gender is not a big deal with him.
I. Would your character be willing to murder an innocent person if it would end hunger in the world?
If the ends justify the means, then yes.
J. What is their most treasured memory?
Time with his father…
K. If your character knew there would be a nuclear war in one week, what would they do?
Tell everyone to aim at Ghetis!
L. What is the greatest accomplishment of your character's life? Is there anything they hope to do that is even better?
So far it has been evolving Golem. He wants to overthrow Ghetis.
M. One would be the one material item your character would save during a fire?
His family picture.
N. Your character is offered $1,000,000 for the following act: before them are ten pistols - only one of which is loaded. They must pick up one of the pistols, point it at their forehead, and pull the trigger. If they can walk away they do so a millionaire. Would they accept the risk?
Yes
O. If your character could choose the manner of their death, what would it be?
An honorable death, fighting for his cause.
P. For what in your character's life do they feel most grateful?
For his parents having him go out and catch golem, it has been his saving grace.
Q. How forgiving is your character?
He forgives those that forgive him.
R. When your character tells a story, do they often exaggerate or embellish it? If so, why?
Yes, he feels inadequate, even if no-one says so, when he tells stories, and feels the need to make them even greater.
S. How much does your character feel in control of the course of their life?
Not at all.
T. Is it easy for your character to ask for help when they need it? Will they ask for help?
No, it is not. But if he is surrounded by people, he will use them.
U. Would your character like to be famous? In what way?
Yes, famous for overthrowing team plasma.
V. What are your character's most compulsive habits? Do they regularly struggle to break those habits?
Impulse thinking, gut reactions, and being pessimistic. And yes, he does.
W. What does your character strive for most in their life: accomplishment, security, love, power, excitement, knowledge, or something else?
Probably, he currently seeks power to get done what he wants.
X. How easily embarrassed is your character?
Depends on what he has done this time. He doesn’t like being proven wrong, or called out on his mistakes.
Y. Does the fact that your character has never done something before increase or decrease its appeal to them?
It increases the appeal, but it definitely depends on what it is. He listens to others’ experience to determine if he wants to do it to or not.
Z. What’s the most dangerous thing your character has ever done?
He lives in a dangerous time. The most dangerous was defeating a Team Plasma Goon, because of all the trouble it caused. It was also dangerous flying across the region on a Golurk’s back.

* Favorite music or group/favorite TV shows or films: Never spent much time on these things
* Hobbies: Battling, spreading propaganda.
VII. Food for Thought
* How would your character react to:
- Inheriting $1 million: spend it on himself to further his cause.
- The death of a loved one: Be strong for others
- A natural disaster: hurricane/earthquake, etc.: See life-quote
- Being fired: Would probably fight against it.
- Meeting an old friend or enemy not seen for years: Taking time to get to know them again
- Having or raising children: WHAT A HANDFULL!
- Being raped/mugged/violated in some way: Feel the need to fight back, right the wrong.
- An unexpected kindness or compliment: Feel gratitude towards the person
- A serious illness such as AIDS or cancer: Fight it all the way
- A flat tire on the expressway: WTF? I need to fix this NOW!
- An interracial relationship: Cool!
- Five minutes on local or national TV: SPREAD THE WORD AGAINST TEAM PLASMA!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A. If your character were to die this evening with no opportunity to communicate with anyone, what would they most regret not having told someone? Why haven't they told them yet?
He would regret not telling his father that he loved him more: now that he is gone.
B. Would your character accept $1,000,000 to leave the county and never set foot in it again?
No, unless he thought that for some way it would help defeat Team Plasma to leave.
C. Your character is given the power to kill people simply by thinking of their deaths and twice repeating the word "good-bye." People would die a natural death and no one would suspect them. Are there any situations in which they would use this power? [If they can imagine themselves killing someone indirectly, could they still see doing it if they had to look into the person's eyes and stab the person to death? Have they ever genuinely wanted to kill someone or wished them dead?]
Yes: Nathan would use the hell out of this. He would probably not be able to kill someone while looking in their eyes, but indirectly he could do, even if he didn’t like it.
D. What would constitute a "perfect" evening for your character?
Getting to go home with his WHOLE family, and possibly with a significant other, without worrying about a war.
E. Would your character rather be extremely successful professionally and have a tolerable yet unexciting private life, or have an extremely happy private life and only a tolerable and uninspiring professional life?
Professional life isn’t much to him; no matter what when it comes to jobs, a job is a job that has to be done.
F. If your character could wake up tomorrow having gained any one ability or quality, what would it be?
Foresight.
G. Your character has the chance to meet someone with whom they can have the most satisfying love imaginable - the stuff of dreams. Sadly, they know that in six months the person will die. Knowing that pain that would follow, would they still want to meet that person and fall in love? What if they knew their lover would not die, but instead would betray them? [In love, is intensity or permanence more important to them? How much do they expect from someone who loves them? What would make them feel betrayed by their mate - indifference? Dishonesty? Infidelity?
Love makes Nathan extremely uncomfortable: both with his self identity as well as with others. He had fallen in love before, and been heartbroken. He would probably prefer, currently, to avoid the situation altogether.
H. Does your character prefer being around men or women? Do their closest friends tend to be men or women? He tends to hang out with guys, but girls who are tough and determined and useful stick around him too. Gender is not a big deal with him.
I. Would your character be willing to murder an innocent person if it would end hunger in the world?
If the ends justify the means, then yes.
J. What is their most treasured memory?
Time with his father…
K. If your character knew there would be a nuclear war in one week, what would they do?
Tell everyone to aim at Ghetis!
L. What is the greatest accomplishment of your character's life? Is there anything they hope to do that is even better?
So far it has been evolving Golem. He wants to overthrow Ghetis.
M. One would be the one material item your character would save during a fire?
His family picture.
N. Your character is offered $1,000,000 for the following act: before them are ten pistols - only one of which is loaded. They must pick up one of the pistols, point it at their forehead, and pull the trigger. If they can walk away they do so a millionaire. Would they accept the risk?
Yes
O. If your character could choose the manner of their death, what would it be?
An honorable death, fighting for his cause.
P. For what in your character's life do they feel most grateful?
For his parents having him go out and catch golem, it has been his saving grace.
Q. How forgiving is your character?
He forgives those that forgive him.
R. When your character tells a story, do they often exaggerate or embellish it? If so, why?
Yes, he feels inadequate, even if no-one says so, when he tells stories, and feels the need to make them even greater.
S. How much does your character feel in control of the course of their life?
Not at all.
T. Is it easy for your character to ask for help when they need it? Will they ask for help?
No, it is not. But if he is surrounded by people, he will use them.
U. Would your character like to be famous? In what way?
Yes, famous for overthrowing team plasma.
V. What are your character's most compulsive habits? Do they regularly struggle to break those habits?
Impulse thinking, gut reactions, and being pessimistic. And yes, he does.
W. What does your character strive for most in their life: accomplishment, security, love, power, excitement, knowledge, or something else?
Probably, he currently seeks power to get done what he wants.
X. How easily embarrassed is your character?
Depends on what he has done this time. He doesn’t like being proven wrong, or called out on his mistakes.
Y. Does the fact that your character has never done something before increase or decrease its appeal to them?
It increases the appeal, but it definitely depends on what it is. He listens to others’ experience to determine if he wants to do it to or not.
Z. What’s the most dangerous thing your character has ever done?
He lives in a dangerous time. The most dangerous was defeating a Team Plasma Goon, because of all the trouble it caused. It was also dangerous flying across the region on a Golurk’s back.
Genesect
Gender: Male
Personality: Genesect is an animal, pretty much. He sees the world as water, things that are food, things that are dangerous, and things that are insignificant. As he is stuck in a self-preservation survival mindset, he will attempt to seek a safe place and hunt. If something comes up that he can’t identify as water, food, or insignificant, he’ll assume dangerous and work to destroy it. He’s in a Pokeball most of the time due to this, so he’ll be partly sensing through her linked partner. Team Plasma’s modifications seem to have greatly reduced or eliminated any reproductive instinct (which is good, because it’ll be harder to keep a PG-13 rating otherwise).
Pokemon
Species: Golurk
Gender: Genderless, Masculine
Nickname: Golem
Personality: Golem is a very solemn fellow: he lives up to his species’ reputation as being a guard. He especially protects Nathan, and whoever Nathan wants protected. He takes care of himself very well by now, since he has been doing this for very long.
Other: Shiny

@Zalck: I remember about camp. So Nathanial is migrated; don't think you needed to change anything anyhow.
@Jason_kun: Did you alter Marec's personality too? Because it seems rather short. He's still in since you were around for a long while, but I'd like to see that expanded.

I’m really sorry this took so long, especially since I didn’t really change much in the end… But well, here’s Stin again, ready to cause some more trouble for you guys and for herself!
Name: Kierstin “Stin” Nieves
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Link: Thundurus, male
Description: Stin stands slightly taller than an average female of her age, reaching the height of five feet and about eight inches. She has a strong figure and especially her legs pack quite the punch due to all the mountain climbing and exploring she has done during recent years. That, her sometimes crude demeanor and overall appearance leave some mistaking her for a male when viewed from afar or from behind. This doesn't particularly bother her, though it's not like she'd try to hide her sex on purpose. From the front, said mistake is a bit less common to occur, since, though her breasts aren't that big, they're still there and her clothes are tight.
She has short, chestnut brown hair that is, in a word, quite a mess; from the top of her head to the short forelocks on her forehead, it sticks out in every single direction imaginable. Though generally short and away from her face, her locks are slightly longer on the right side of her forehead, and a few misplaced strands sometimes fall in her field of vision.
And, speaking of vision, she has a sharp one. Her eyes are grey, but in no way dull; they're very light in color, and shine with excitement almost perpetually. Her eyes are a bit bigger than average, or at least they appear so since they're always fully open and looking for any signs of adventure imaginable. She often has a playful grin decorating her face, though frowns when things get boring aren't an uncommon sight, either.
She wears a dark green baseball cap with wing patterns on both sides, fitted snugly atop her messy hair, the visor sometimes hiding part of her face from sight.
For clothing, she prefers comfortable pieces of garment that are easy to move around in. Dresses and anything that would cover her calves are out of the question for her, as are skirts that would prove it difficult to jump and climb as she pleases. So, her favorite choices as far as pants go are shorts of variety of materials and designs. She especially likes loose, camouflage pattered shorts reaching halfway down her thigh as well as tight jean shorts, covering her thighs only slightly. Right now, she's experimenting with a mixture of both; short, camouflage pattered jeans a bit more on the tight side. She also has a dark brown belt, with various tools and small pouches carrying the strangest of souvenirs hanging all around it.
On her legs she wears black hiker boots, showing various signs of their owner's endeavors. They're worn, but since they're still sturdy, Stin doesn't see the need to buy new ones.
She wears an orange halterneck, which covers her chest all the way up to her neck. The strap is short and thick, wrapped directly around her neck, covering half of it and offering some protection from sharp branches and the like that might scratch her on her rather reckless adventures. The cloth is skin tight and reaches slightly above her bellybutton.
Her arms are completely exposed from shoulders to wrists, and so they carry many cuts and bruises from various sources. Only her palms are covered in dark brown, fingerless gloves with a hole revealing some of the back of her hand.
She doesn't carry bags, as she finds them inconvenient. Everything she needs either hangs from the aforementioned belt or is stuffed in the huge pockets of her jeans. Her Pokédex is also in one of those pockets. The pendant she received is embedded on a bracelet she wears on her left wrist.
Personality: Stin is a rather… difficult and erratic person, to put it simply. She is very cheerful and talkative, and very willing to spend excessive amounts of time discussing things that interest her, such as sharing tales of her journeys and listening to others do the same. However, if the subject at hand doesn't interest her, she isn't one to pretend it does. She's quick to try and change the subject or even physically leave in the middle of someone's sentence if they don't take the hint. She needs to constantly be entertained, and she abhors boredom.
If she finds someone interesting, she will be very friendly and even help them out every now and then if the task isn't too menacing. However, one should know that she is by no means loyal; should she find something else, something shiny and new and seemingly more entertaining, she is quick to switch her attention over there instead. And seeing how she likes change and new faces, things like that happen often. But, if she remembers you with fondness, she can return later as if nothing has happened.
She doesn't like calm, collected people and voices this fact out loud. She also doesn't like quiet people, ones that would rather go along with others than speak their mind. And, once she has labeled you as 'boring', dealing with her will become a lot more difficult. She has no patience to speak to anyone she doesn't like, and if you don't shout loud enough, she may very well ignore you had said anything at all. She can be downright mean and rude to such people, though she doesn't do it on purpose. She doesn't realize how spiteful she can come across, it's just that people who're slow (in any definition of the word) wear her out and make her feel anxious.
She's highly curious and has a tendency to not be able to sit still. She wants things to do, and she wants them right away. And that is actually a very crucial part of her personality; what she wants, she has to get. She can be incredibly selfish, and doesn't stop to think that maybe others have needs too, ones that differ from hers. It's all about her though that, too, is something she doesn't realize. She doesn't mean to hurt anyone, but her bold attitude often does so.
She likes Pokémon, but only certain ones. Birds and other flying beings she loves, while ground types and ones that look 'boring' or 'slow' gain no attention from her, just like with humans.
She's carefree, and the troubles of others don't affect her. Very few things can make her worry, and those are often related to the lack of things to do, suppression of her freedom or, as she is claustrophobic, closed places. She even hates to be indoors, though even she realizes that sometimes it's necessary. Her discomfort when inside, however, shows; if the place is small enough she starts to sweat and move a bit crouched, as if to get further away from the walls and ceiling that threaten to crush her. She's meaner, simply because she's afraid, and even shows signs of pure fear, something that is very rare for her. Ordinary danger on the other hand doesn't faze her at all, quite the contrary; the bigger the risk, the greater the adventure, is what she thinks.
She doesn't like work, unless there is something big in it for her. Same goes for doing favors; if she gets something she likes in return, she's all for it. Otherwise, you might as well be asking help from a deaf Cubone.
She's extremely stubborn, and once she has gotten an idea in her head, she will follow through regardless of what the people around her think. The only one that can change her mind is she, herself, if she finds something more fun. And this happens often; she's very spontaneous and longtime plans just don't flow with her. She also needs to see results right away, not in three years. Otherwise, there's no point and it's all just a big waste of time for her.
She doesn't have anything personal against Team Plasma or their leader. All she wants is to be able to leave the region. If it weren't for that one restriction and the fact that bringing such a powerful leader down sounds extremely interesting, she might actually be one to root for Ghetsis. After all, she finds him, his ideals and the workings of the group interesting, since they're so out of the norm and affect so many things. That, and she's still grateful for them for pretty much allowing her escape from home all those years ago.
History: Stin was born in Violet City, Johto. Even as a child she was a very curious girl, always sneaking out to explore everything the nearby area had to offer; the Sprout tower, the dark cave on the outskirts of the city, the Ruins of Alph… she had to see them all, much to her parents' dismay. Their little girl alone, among the bloodsucking Zubat? In the ruins that were rumored to host the possibly dangerous Unown somewhere deep within? Naturally they couldn't allow that.
But no matter how many times young Stin was grounded, yelled at and explained how she should just play Pokémon trainer with the other local kids rather than wander off alone, she didn't stop her escapades. Or, rather, she couldn't stop. The world was huge and humans had limited life spans, how could she wait until she was a grown up? Why would she wait, when the world was out there waiting for her right now?
Tired, worried and out of ideas that didn't include actually harming their daughter to instill some discipline, Stin's parents decided to settle on a very different approach. She could go, but she had to have a Pokémon companion with her at all times. She reluctantly agreed, thinking that having a protector with her spoiled the fun, but maybe it was better than not being able to go at all. Plus, maybe she could somehow make it fun. She dreamed of a majestic Pidgeot to soar the skies with.
She received a Chikorita for her sixth birthday, and instantly her face fell. A Chikorita? A boring, earthbound Pokémon with small, stumpy legs? When they lived in a city of flying Pokémon? No, if she had to have a companion she wanted a bird, something with wings to support it, something she could watch flying off in the distance and maybe even fly with when the Pokémon was older.
Pouting, she accepted the Pokémon anyway to appease her parents, and continued her adventures around the town with it. However, without realizing nor meaning to, she didn't treat the Pokémon quite right, still disappointed in its typing and limitations. She ran off from the Pokémon constantly, knowing it couldn't keep up if she planned her routes well enough to include climbing and more difficult terrain. She didn't help if it got into battles, not because she would have willed it harm, but because she was just too busy and focused on her own fun to pay her companion's needs any heed.
Her parents were not pleased. They yelled at their daughter for mistreating a creature so loyal it would even try to climb the mountains after her, and decided that if she could not care for another living being enough to make sure it didn't return home bruised every day, she wasn’t a worthy trainer. Not now, not ever, and so they handed the small Pokémon over to a traveling trainer who agreed to take good care of it from now on. Stin, angered, stamped her parents as big meanies for not catering to her needs, and when she was quite literally locked inside the house for a while to prevent her from running off and hurting herself in her anger, she threw a tantrum never seen before. She kicked and punched the walls, screamed and demanded freedom. She would not be locked inside like this when she had yet to explore the deepest parts of the Ruins of Alph.
Her parents, not knowing what to do, finally decided that maybe a change of pace was in order. They would move over to Unova, and make sure to find a town so small and boring she simply would not be able to live out her fantasies of adventure. A town, somewhere far from everything interesting. Stin's objections were not heeded, and so the whole family moved.
However, it had been mere months since they had arrived when they realized that everything wasn't quite right. This speech of releasing Pokémon, the ban on travel in and out of the region, something was up and they were worried. This Team Plasma, as they called themselves, didn't seem like people anyone should be around.
So, naturally, Stin was interested in them. She was twelve, and her curiosity had but grown over the years. Ghetsis had already ruled the region for a year or so, and everything had changed from what it was when they had first come. The place had become more interesting and for that, Stin was quite grateful to the big leader up there, pulling the strings of change.
But the excitement wasn't enough for her yet. Having Pokémon was forbidden? In that case, she would try and befriend one. The thrill of trying not to get caught was just so tempting! So, despite her parents' best efforts to try and keep her from going anywhere, they were eventually shocked as their fourteen year old girl presented them with a young Pidove, one she had been playing with in the forest in secrecy for some time now.
Her parents had had it. They forced the young Pokémon from the girl's arms and threw it back in the woods, before dragging their daughter inside and, with heavy hearts, locked her in her room again, this time sealing the window and not allowing her to walk in the rest of the house without one of them constantly keeping an eye on her. It was difficult for them, they knew how much their daughter loved wilderness and freedom, but they saw no other choice. It was this or getting their daughter in trouble with the law, possibly leading to her being taken away to Arceus knows where. They loved their daughter far too much to let that happen.
Stin was going crazy over her captivity, however. She tried her best to get out, even forcing herself past her parents through means such as kicking, biting and scratching, but they always managed to subdue her before she could get too far. She was sure she couldn't handle another week inside, when salvation came to her in the form of a Team Plasma grunt. The team had decided to do their routine check up on the houses to see if anyone had Pokémon and so, everyone was told to get outside while their house was searched.
Needless to say what Stin did the second she got to breathe fresh air; she screamed that there were a lot of Pokémon inside the house, that her parents even sold the creatures to those that would buy them and ran off when her parents were seized for questioning.
She ran and ran and didn't stop until she was so far in the woods she couldn't make out anything but trees and a few Pokémon looking curiously down at her, a strange rover in their territory. She breathed heavily and straightened, looking around at the wilderness for the first time in such a long time and smiled. And it wasn't long after that her earlier companion rejoined her; the same large-eyed Pidove she had befriended in the past. It had been waiting for her.
Stin was fifteen, free and finally had a companion she deemed worthy, one that would one day take her to the skies above on its back. She was ready now, determined to explore the region. And so she set off to travel the lands, exploring every single inch of the region over the years. At first she was thrilled to just be able to travel, but as the years rolled by and she saw more and more of her new home region, she slowly started to yearn for more. Big as Unova was, it was just one of many lands she had yet to explore. And with Team Plasma in the way she couldn’t leave, couldn’t explore anything more once she had conquered this region. She didn’t like it. Something had to be done to Ghetsis and the stupid ban on travel.
Perhaps it was because of that when a Rebel group rose to oppose the new regime, Stin wanted in. Naturally, she was one of the first to volunteer to test out the pendants when given the chance as well, telling Tao to skip the chitchat and just bestow her with power already! She continued traveling after that, meeting with Thundurus in her sleep and doing deeds he gave to her as tests. She had fun while doing them too, as it seemed like the legendary had a similar knack for chaos as she did, and Stin couldn’t wait for the legendary to be woken so she could get his powers and go kick some Ghetsis behind. Well, either that or strike a deal. Or possibly just leave the region on her own, the others be damned. Whichever sounds the most exciting to her at the time.
Other: N/A
Pokémon
Species: Tranquill
Gender: Male
Nickname: Sigi
Personality: When he was a Pidove he shared much of the same childish curiosity as his trained did, but come age and wisdom, he calmed down quite a bit. He still gets interested in things easily – though in a more reserved manner – and is ready to follow Stin wherever it is she might want to go, but it's more because he likes his friend and doesn't mind adventure, rather than because he'd need to see every place in the world. He is very wise, having gained experience and knowledge of various things on their travels. When Stin was exploring caverns and the like, Sigi was discussing current matters with the local Pokémon.
Sometimes, if Stin's personality and stubbornness gets her in too much trouble, Sigi tries to be the voice of reason for her. Suggest another approach, or a route less dangerous. Sometimes his advice is even heeded, though oftentimes not, and Sigi knows not to nag too much. He doesn't want his friend to start thinking of him as an old, boring bookworm, after all.
Sigi is also the one who often has to clean up after the mess his companion leaves; apologize to Pokémon she might have insulted, pick up things she knocked over when rushing past and so on. Since Stin hasn't seen her parents ever since she ran off, Sigi has, over time, found himself playing the role of her guardian and parent more and more. It amuses him; their ages aren't that much apart, after all.
He is very protective over his friend but knows where to draw the line. And luckily for him, he isn't that much of a worrier type; he would have died of stress by now. Sure, he tries to keep Stin out of extreme and imminent danger, but he also trusts that she can handle most things on her own. They also spend a lot of time apart, both doing their own things and reuniting every now and then to travel and have fun. Such a setting doesn't leave room for worrywarts, as Stin would put it.
Updated History: I added the bit about her joining the rebel group and talking with Thundurus in her dreams.
Previous game events: None.
Other changes: Aged her up by two years and changed like, a handful of sentences here and there, but the content itself remained pretty much the same.

Even as a child she was a very curious girl, always sneaking out to explore everything the nearby area had to offer; the Sprout tower, the dark cave on the outskirts of the city, the Ruins of Alph… she had to see them all, much to her parents' dismay. Their little girl alone, among the bloodsucking Zubat? In the ruins that were rumored to host the possibly dangerous Unown somewhere deep within? Naturally they couldn't allow that.
But no matter how many times young Stin was grounded, yelled at and explained how she should just play Pokémon trainer with the other local kids rather than wander off alone, she didn't stop her escapades. Or, rather, she couldn't stop. The world was huge and humans had limited life spans, how could she wait until she was a grown up? Why would she wait, when the world was out there waiting for her right now?
Tired, worried and out of ideas that didn't include actually harming their daughter to instill some discipline, Stin's parents decided to settle on a very different approach. She could go, but she had to have a Pokémon companion with her at all times. She reluctantly agreed, thinking that having a protector with her spoiled the fun, but maybe it was better than not being able to go at all. Plus, maybe she could somehow make it fun. She dreamed of a majestic Pidgeot to soar the skies with.
She received a Chikorita for her sixth birthday, and instantly her face fell. A Chikorita? A boring, earthbound Pokémon with small, stumpy legs? When they lived in a city of flying Pokémon? No, if she had to have a companion she wanted a bird, something with wings to support it, something she could watch flying off in the distance and maybe even fly with when the Pokémon was older.
Pouting, she accepted the Pokémon anyway to appease her parents, and continued her adventures around the town with it. However, without realizing nor meaning to, she didn't treat the Pokémon quite right, still disappointed in its typing and limitations. She ran off from the Pokémon constantly, knowing it couldn't keep up if she planned her routes well enough to include climbing and more difficult terrain. She didn't help if it got into battles, not because she would have willed it harm, but because she was just too busy and focused on her own fun to pay her companion's needs any heed.
Her parents were not pleased. They yelled at their daughter for mistreating a creature so loyal it would even try to climb the mountains after her, and decided that if she could not care for another living being enough to make sure it didn't return home bruised every day, she wasn’t a worthy trainer. Not now, not ever, and so they handed the small Pokémon over to a traveling trainer who agreed to take good care of it from now on. Stin, angered, stamped her parents as big meanies for not catering to her needs, and when she was quite literally locked inside the house for a while to prevent her from running off and hurting herself in her anger, she threw a tantrum never seen before. She kicked and punched the walls, screamed and demanded freedom. She would not be locked inside like this when she had yet to explore the deepest parts of the Ruins of Alph.
Her parents, not knowing what to do, finally decided that maybe a change of pace was in order. They would move over to Unova, and make sure to find a town so small and boring she simply would not be able to live out her fantasies of adventure. A town, somewhere far from everything interesting. Stin's objections were not heeded, and so the whole family moved.
However, it had been mere months since they had arrived when they realized that everything wasn't quite right. This speech of releasing Pokémon, the ban on travel in and out of the region, something was up and they were worried. This Team Plasma, as they called themselves, didn't seem like people anyone should be around.
So, naturally, Stin was interested in them. She was twelve, and her curiosity had but grown over the years. Ghetsis had already ruled the region for a year or so, and everything had changed from what it was when they had first come. The place had become more interesting and for that, Stin was quite grateful to the big leader up there, pulling the strings of change.
But the excitement wasn't enough for her yet. Having Pokémon was forbidden? In that case, she would try and befriend one. The thrill of trying not to get caught was just so tempting! So, despite her parents' best efforts to try and keep her from going anywhere, they were eventually shocked as their fourteen year old girl presented them with a young Pidove, one she had been playing with in the forest in secrecy for some time now.
Her parents had had it. They forced the young Pokémon from the girl's arms and threw it back in the woods, before dragging their daughter inside and, with heavy hearts, locked her in her room again, this time sealing the window and not allowing her to walk in the rest of the house without one of them constantly keeping an eye on her. It was difficult for them, they knew how much their daughter loved wilderness and freedom, but they saw no other choice. It was this or getting their daughter in trouble with the law, possibly leading to her being taken away to Arceus knows where. They loved their daughter far too much to let that happen.
Stin was going crazy over her captivity, however. She tried her best to get out, even forcing herself past her parents through means such as kicking, biting and scratching, but they always managed to subdue her before she could get too far. She was sure she couldn't handle another week inside, when salvation came to her in the form of a Team Plasma grunt. The team had decided to do their routine check up on the houses to see if anyone had Pokémon and so, everyone was told to get outside while their house was searched.
Needless to say what Stin did the second she got to breathe fresh air; she screamed that there were a lot of Pokémon inside the house, that her parents even sold the creatures to those that would buy them and ran off when her parents were seized for questioning.
She ran and ran and didn't stop until she was so far in the woods she couldn't make out anything but trees and a few Pokémon looking curiously down at her, a strange rover in their territory. She breathed heavily and straightened, looking around at the wilderness for the first time in such a long time and smiled. And it wasn't long after that her earlier companion rejoined her; the same large-eyed Pidove she had befriended in the past. It had been waiting for her.
Stin was fifteen, free and finally had a companion she deemed worthy, one that would one day take her to the skies above on its back. She was ready now, determined to explore the region. And so she set off to travel the lands, exploring every single inch of the region over the years. At first she was thrilled to just be able to travel, but as the years rolled by and she saw more and more of her new home region, she slowly started to yearn for more. Big as Unova was, it was just one of many lands she had yet to explore. And with Team Plasma in the way she couldn’t leave, couldn’t explore anything more once she had conquered this region. She didn’t like it. Something had to be done to Ghetsis and the stupid ban on travel.
Perhaps it was because of that when a Rebel group rose to oppose the new regime, Stin wanted in. Naturally, she was one of the first to volunteer to test out the pendants when given the chance as well, telling Tao to skip the chitchat and just bestow her with power already! She continued traveling after that, meeting with Thundurus in her sleep and doing deeds he gave to her as tests. She had fun while doing them too, as it seemed like the legendary had a similar knack for chaos as she did, and Stin couldn’t wait for the legendary to be woken so she could get his powers and go kick some Ghetsis behind. Well, either that or strike a deal. Or possibly just leave the region on her own, the others be damned. Whichever sounds the most exciting to her at the time.
Other: N/A
Pokémon
Species: Tranquill
Gender: Male
Nickname: Sigi
Personality: When he was a Pidove he shared much of the same childish curiosity as his trained did, but come age and wisdom, he calmed down quite a bit. He still gets interested in things easily – though in a more reserved manner – and is ready to follow Stin wherever it is she might want to go, but it's more because he likes his friend and doesn't mind adventure, rather than because he'd need to see every place in the world. He is very wise, having gained experience and knowledge of various things on their travels. When Stin was exploring caverns and the like, Sigi was discussing current matters with the local Pokémon.
Sometimes, if Stin's personality and stubbornness gets her in too much trouble, Sigi tries to be the voice of reason for her. Suggest another approach, or a route less dangerous. Sometimes his advice is even heeded, though oftentimes not, and Sigi knows not to nag too much. He doesn't want his friend to start thinking of him as an old, boring bookworm, after all.
Sigi is also the one who often has to clean up after the mess his companion leaves; apologize to Pokémon she might have insulted, pick up things she knocked over when rushing past and so on. Since Stin hasn't seen her parents ever since she ran off, Sigi has, over time, found himself playing the role of her guardian and parent more and more. It amuses him; their ages aren't that much apart, after all.
He is very protective over his friend but knows where to draw the line. And luckily for him, he isn't that much of a worrier type; he would have died of stress by now. Sure, he tries to keep Stin out of extreme and imminent danger, but he also trusts that she can handle most things on her own. They also spend a lot of time apart, both doing their own things and reuniting every now and then to travel and have fun. Such a setting doesn't leave room for worrywarts, as Stin would put it.
Updated History: I added the bit about her joining the rebel group and talking with Thundurus in her dreams.
Previous game events: None.
Other changes: Aged her up by two years and changed like, a handful of sentences here and there, but the content itself remained pretty much the same.
Name: Nicholas Silverman
Age: 15
Gender: male
Description:
Yep, this is Natie's younger brother even though he's 5'10'' in height and towers over his older sister and loves to tease her from time to time with this. He has dark brown/black hair that frames his face nicely and then gets a bit longer from behind, usually keeping it in a ponytail since he likes to go out and cause mischief by himself. He has fair skin which is unusual for him since he enjoys being outside most of his time and is always moving around and has a lean built with toned muscles. His eyes are a yellow that is not found in common folk and if looked closely, especially at night under the moon’s light, they look like small glowing rings around his pupil. Nicholas is a swift and agile boy much like his sister but unlike her he is able to sneak up on people without them knowing, much like a ninja he likes to see in shows and movies.
He wears different slightly baggy shirts, he likes mixing up from time to time, cargo shorts and sneakers. Nick also has a piercing in his right ear in the shape of a small crescent moon and black fingerless gloves that give him grip when swinging around places and keeps his hands free from scratches. When he sneaks out of the designated area he usually wears a black hoodie that covers his face except his eyes.
Personality:
Nick is a loner. Well, he likes to go out and is not a bad kid since he is mannered and respects his elders, but he doesn’t like hanging out with kids his age or younger. The only kid he’s hung out with was with his sisters, and the only time he was playing or causing mischief by himself was when they lived near Pokemon who were his only friends. Just because he likes to be alone doesn’t mean he’s evil to the other kids though. Saying a greeting or answering questions were okay, but if they wanted to get too close he would just ignore them or say “no thanks.” The funny thing is that he wanted to make friends again so badly…but something in him, probably his insticts, made him shy away from the human kids all the time and so he just gave up on that and continued his merry way.
He does show emotion though. Smiling and chuckling shows he is in a good mood, as well as a smirk when he does something to his sister or succeeds in evading the law when he sneaks out. A frown or scowl shows his distaste while a glare and narrowed eyes show more of a angered reaction. Nick tries not to cry or shows his sadness with a frown and his mood. It just comes out in subtler reactions than if someone else would do it…unless he gets very emotional and actually starts to show it through sudden actions, but only when he gets news that affects him directly or his family. Of course he thinks highly of his family, even his father whom he’s only seen once in his life. Family is a bond he could never break and would stick up for them through thick and thin.
History:
Nicholas was born a healthy baby into a loving family and simple life. It was a little before and during the pregnancy that explains how he is “different” from the other kids, as well as his sister. His mother really didn’t have a choice as well since it had been during the time their father had gathered up a debt with the wrong crowd, and the ones who had to pay for that was his family since he was nowhere to be found. Everything was very sudden and during the night when three individuals entered the house unnoticed and had requested the young mother to come quietly or use force on her. Not wanting to jeopardize her family she went along quietly. Of course her family would believe that she had been interned in a hospital paid by Natie’s father in believing that she was in a delicate condition to be around others. Natie was sad but understood, and even though Nana had a feeling that it was more than that she kept quiet and just took care of her granddaughter.
The mother went through tests, was kept healthy as the embryo developed inside of her and then analyzed as it grew. When it was good enough the scientists tampered with the embryo and started mixing in Pokémon DNA while still inside the mother. This had been a risky move on Team Plasma’s part but it had been the father’s only condition if they were to do this in act of his payment. Most of the DNA used was from the dark type Pokemon, especially from the Umbreon and Sneasel line. It was painful for her and she was usually hooked up on machines and given something to numb the pain, but nothing would stop them from completing their project. Either way they couldn’t stop now, not when this was going successfully as planned.
After they had done everything they could to create a perfect and healthy giginka baby inside the womb they kept a close watch and monitored her health and the baby’s, eventually leading to the birth. It was hard and painful for the mother and just like with Natie’s the father was there as well to monitor and watch his son being born. At the end Nicholas was born with no complications and healthy as any other normal baby…except the normal part. It was only the young woman that suffered at the end but was glad that her husband was there to at least have a final family moment. After his wife regrettably passed away while holding his son the man stopped the scientists from taking away the baby. He knew that they didn’t really care about what happened to the mother but he had to ask why he wanted his son.
They answered that they would train him in the same way they trained the Shadow Triad, due to the result of using specific DNA from the Pokémon mentioned before and the type. The man wouldn’t put up with this and offered another proposition. They would let the kid go back but they would still keep tabs on him and see how he developed over the years. He explained how it was the same as researchers keeping tabs with Pokémon in the wild and when the time was right they would pick him up and take him back to have his powers unsealed and be trained severely. They just nodded and with the help of them he was able to transport his wife and the baby to a normal hospital that was paid to keep quiet. It was hard breaking the news to his daughter and mother-in-law, but the news of them having a new addition evened out the distress of losing a loved one.
After the planning and small memorial they had for the mother everything went back to normal. Natie grew up with a bounce in her step and nothing letting her down while her brother grew up with Pokémon all around, feeling at place from the time he was a toddler as he took his first steps outside under his Nana’s watchful eye. He loved being outside, especially at night, but couldn’t help feeling someone was watching even though the feeling started to subside as he grew older. And as he grew older he became slightly bitter at Team Plasma and what they were doing to their coexistence with Pokémon. It wasn’t fair that they had to separate them from the only ones that brought him some sense of belonging, and then to top it off they had to force them out of their house outside of the city and make them live in the city. It made him feel secluded and out of place, which just made him get that feeling of being watched back again as he turned to his teens.
Now he helps his Nana around the house and works at the shop in front of their new home. It’s not the same as when he was little but it was a peaceful living nonetheless. When he’s not working he’s helping in the house and when he’s not doing either….he sneaks out to get some berries. He hasn’t been caught ever thanks to his reflexes and how natural it feels to sneak around, which made him gain at least one friend during his secret rendezvous. It was during his sneaking that he bumped into a Zorua, a Pokémon unusual to be around his city but one nonetheless. He had noticed this little creature only in shadow when he would try to steal his berries, but was careful after the first time and even “captured” it when he set up a trap for it. Least to say it turned into him and fled, and that just made him want to be around it that much more. Their bond is still a bit unstable but nothing a little more sneaking and berries wouldn’t fix.
Type: Dark
Talents:
Powers available when unsealed
Nasty Plot: When this power is used it is only noticed when Nicholas suddenly stops or takes a pause and tries to concentrate. This power stimulates his brain into having bad thoughts to increase his special attack. The downside to this is the timing and the thoughts running through his brain, leaving him a bitter person afterwards and needing his personal space. It would be a bad choice if you decide to bother him right after using this power.
Moonlight: Nicholas is able to regain some of his health while under the light of the moon. The amount of health varies on how the moon is, new moon being little to nonexistent while full moon restores almost if not all of his energy. The only drawback is that he can’t regain energy quick enough if he’s moving around too much like in fighting or running. You know when this is happening when his eyes start glowing on their own accord, and he can’t control this since it comes naturally.
Other moves learned after through training/experience:
Snatch: With this he is able to literally snatch away the effects of any healing or stat-changing move the opponent attempts to use. He can only do it once at the beginning but will gradually be able to use it multiple times as he starts to gain control of his powers.
Faint Attack: This attack works well when he’s moving through the shadows, catching his opponent disarmingly and throwing a sucker punch when they least expect it. The downside is that it won’t work with everyone, only the ones that can get distracted most of the time and weaker opponents than him. It has better effect at night or in the shadows during the day.
Assurance: Nicholas will learn how to use this attack in its full capacity when fighting his opponents. His power behind this attack is doubled if the opponent has already taken damage before this was used, giving Nick the advantage even with stronger opponents. Although a good attack it tires him after the first set of five and so he needs to rest and recharge.
Shadow Slash: Dark purplish energy envelops Nick’s hands in the form of sharp claws that deal critical damage to his opponents. It works to its full potential when used with Nasty Plot. Nick has to rest after using this attack for a full hour and it takes toll in his body and mind when used with Nasty Plot. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Night_Slash_(move)
Dark Pulse: This is probably his most powerful and dangerous attack. If used more than three times along with Nasty Plot he enters a temporary coma that lasts for about three days. He releases dark, horrible aura energy from his hands imbued with dark thoughts at his opponent like a fast projectile and leaves them unconscious for about 20 minutes if they’re still breathing after the attack. He will try to use this power the less because of the consequences.
Other: Nicholas doesn’t like the negative effects his powers will bring onto him and so will try not to use them that much. He likes strawberries and sneaking around. His favorite “super heroes” are ninjas. He still doesn’t know about the “unnerving stares” he keeps on feeling even till this day, and hopefully will learn about this through the RPG.
Pokémon
Nickname: Fura
Species: Zorua
Gender: Female
Personality:
Fura is a very tricky and snobbish Pokémon even though it acts rude to the ones she meets. She doesn’t like getting her own food and often ends up stealing from the Pokémon that gather their own, or from Nicholas since he is the only one that dares to venture outside of the jurisdiction of Team Plasma. The small dark-type likes to tease and fool around with him, often changing into him when he’s not looking to taunt his moves. Although she tries to give him a hard time it’s obvious she just wants some attention and affection from the only human she’s seen in like forever, and even though she can feel something different from him Fura thinks it’s more familiarity than strangeness between them.

If this is accepted, this would be the second Silverman, and the fourth character total that has Silver in their last name. And then there's Sid, who has the color silver as a main theme for his appearence. Guess this would make the theme color for this RP silver.

Bumping since Latias and Terrakion are still open. Probably Keldeo too, since Winterbreezesrule hasn't been on for a long time. You need to update the accepted players thing Ysa (by the way, in the accepted palyers thing Latias is spelled with an o so instead of Latias and Latios there are two Latios).
