[ Introduction ]​

Many years ago, the great one known as Arceus created all known life. He created powerful beasts to control the aspects of the world, and with their help created the place we call home. The beings he created have come to be known as “legendary”, huge beasts that have control over aspects of life. Some that control time and space, others that represent life and death, and even ones that represent the weather. With the help of these beasts, Arceus came to create the rest of the Pokemon and even bring forth humans; however he could have never foreseen the events caused by the dimensional rift that tore through the sky.

The rift appeared suddenly, without warning. Arceus at first, assumed that the guardian of space, Palkia had accidentally created the rift and would come to close it in time. He could never have been so wrong. Odd creatures began pouring through the rift, things never seen by the legends at the time. They were different, odd, more similar to the humans that Arceus had just began to create than the Pokemon that wandered freely. Also unlike the legends, there were multiples of each one; countless amounts of one, similar to regular Pokemon rather than the grotesque twisted beasts that swirled in front of the legendaries. However, there was one exception, the one that controlled the beasts was huge, towering threateningly over them and seemingly the only one similar to itself.

It referred to itself as the great lord Necrozma, and recounted it’s life within the alternate dimension it had come from. It spoke of harsh times, war, and the deaths of many and seeing Arceus’ almost perfect world caused it anger. It lashed out, attacking all the legendaries and Arceus himself. Many fled, but one legendary of each of the respective types that Arceus had created stuck around till the very end to lend Arceus their power.

The war waged on for centuries, until it seemed to reach a stalemate. The leaders of each side were weakened, and their forces had diminished as time went on. Necrozma offered Arceus a truce, in exchange for equal power over the mortal realm along with understanding the eighteen elements that Arceus had created. Arceus accepted in order to save the legends that fought alongside him during this war, but Necrozma had other plans. Upon Arceus’ acceptance, Necrozma fired an extremely powerful concentrated beam at Arceus and the legends that had stuck alongside him. Once the attack was finished, Arceus stood, extremely weak and on the verge of death and looked towards his fellow legends. Each of which had fallen to the attack, they lay behind him motionless.

Arceus was mortified, he asked Necrozma why he had done such a thing, to which Necrozma replied that he wanted control over this realm, and all realms and would do anything to obtain his goal. He prepared another attack, ready to finish Arceus off when one of his own soldiers stepped in front of Arceus. It was the young jellyfish-like beast, she begged for Necrozma to stop, stop all this violence and go home. Necrozma grew angry at her betrayal, finishing her off with a single strong slash. Arceus sat, knowing it was his last stand, he was prepared to accept his fate. Necrozma focused on him, ready to provide the final blow.

While he was preparing his attack, the twins of day and night jumped through the dimensional crack. Solgaleo and Lunala stood in protest to Necrozma, and he was unprepared for what came next. Using their combined power, the twins forced Necrozma and his minions back through the portal they had come through and sealed him inside with a spell crafted by them and the four guardian Tapu’s.

What came next was an era of peace, and a heartbroken Arceus. His companions had died fighting alongside them, however Arceus foresaw more danger in the future that he would once again need their help with so he told Solgaleo and Lunala a prophecy to hold true.

“100 years of peace will follow the defeat of Necrozma, until he able to break his chains and come wreak havoc upon our world once again. Those who have fallen today will be reborn eighteen years before the date he will free himself, they will be triumphant over Necrozma once their full potential has been realized.”

Solgaleo and Lunala held onto the prophecy, knowing the date would one day come. Arceus himself, went into a deep slumber after speaking with them to conserve his energy and be able to live another day.


[ Your Character ]​

The defeat of Necrozma is a long told legend within the Pokemon world, it has been told for countless millennia and is well known to people and Pokemon alike. Many have assumed it is just a legend, similar to the legendary Pokemon spoken about in the story, as no one has seen them with their own eyes. However, the prophesied day is coming fast; and you’re beginning to feel something calling to you.

Your character is one of the eighteen reborn legends, who has been reborn as a human child eighteen years before the day Necrozma is said to return. That day is your birthday, the day that you would go from being seventeen to being an adult. Little do you know, there are children all throughout the many regions just like you; born on the same day and feeling like something is calling to them. Each child has been having odd dreams where someone refers to you as an odd name, not your given name but something similar to one of those legendaries spoken of in folklore.

After the dream, your beloved Pokemon that you received in your life suddenly began talking. No, not the usual Pokemon chatter; like actual human words. You also realized that very suddenly you had some sort of odd powers, be it like shooting fireballs from your hand or little jolts of electricity it certainly wasn’t normal.


[ Powers ]​

Due to a lot of questions, I've added an extra section about the powers. I'm not extremely fussy about the powers, it can any move of your type or even some moves outside your type but please have the majority of the starting powers be your type.

*Note: These powers do not have to be moves your legendary can learn, as I said; any moves but mostly moves of your type. If you use moves outside of your type it is fine especially if it fits with your character.


[ Rules ]​

  • Following all Serebii rules is probably important, just saying.
    [*]Yes, you’re actually a legendary Pokemon and starting to have some powers but I ask that you don’t make your character like a literal GOD.
    [*]I’m gonna say this is around a PG-13/PG-15 sorta thing, there will be some battles and some darker moments but nothing too serious. It’s Pokemon after all.
    [*]Evolving your partner Pokemon needs to be approved by me! Any new powers your character gets also need to be approved by me. There will be points in the RPG that I allow you to add another.
    [*]Most humans in this iteration do not believe in the presence of legendaries and believe that the Pokemon coming through the dimensional hole was all a fairy tale.
    [*]You’re allowed a max of two characters, but you may only reserve one type at a time.
    [*]When reserving please state your desired type, partner pokemon, and legend.
    [*]All that being said, you’re given mostly free reign over everything else. With a few expections that I will mention with the sign ups.
[ Sign Up Rules ]​

There are a few personality elements I would like you to include based on your type, it's only four very small ones; you can expand on them and add anything else you may like to your character’s personality. It’s just to give you a basic sense and be able to expand from there. Your legendary is also more or less your choice, as they were not specifically mentioned within the backstory.

Name: Erin Atropine
Age: Seventeen
Gender: Female
Hometown: Heahea City, Alola

Type: Poison
Legendary: Nihilego
Powers:
  • Venom Drench; Spitting Poison, Erin causes her enemies to panic and temporarily drop their attack
  • Smog: Erin emits a hefty smog from her mouth, can lead to poisoning
  • Poison Jab: Punching her target with an arm seeped in Poison, Erin attacks.
  • Acid Armor: Coating herself in a purifying acid, Erin creates a barrier that boosts her attack.
Appearance:
Ssnfi8W.png


Erin is a young woman of average height and weight,standing around 5'5" and weighing around 140 pounds. Her body type would usually be described as curvy, giving her the hourglass frame and allowing her to have wide hips but a small waist and larger than average breasts with around a D cup. Her skin is somewhat pale, making it contrast fairly nicely with her usual fashion consisting of mostly purple. Her hair is light purple, probably not natural but she always claims that's what she was born with. It's short, spiked, and somewhat messy most of the time. As such, she keeps it within a purple beanie for fashionable purposes as well as to tame it slightly. Her face is clear of blemishes other than a nose ring in her right nostril, dark purple in colour. Her eyes are a slightly darker purple than her hair, bright and full of energy. To complete her overall look, she also wears purple cross earrings.

Her fashion sense somewhat odd and "edgy" for lack of a better word. She wears a purple crop top with a large black cross on the front. It shows off her stomach, which is flat and somewhat muscular in order to keep her form up. Along with this she wears dark grey shorts with black buttons running up both sides as well as gradient purple leggings in order to not show her pasty white legs. Upon her feet she wears dark grey combat boots to complete her look. She's also usually seen with her purple headphones swung around her neck.

Personality: Starting off on the positive side of Erin's personality she could be considered intelligent, but she usually doesn't apply herself enough for this to matter. She's friendly towards others, usually seen with a smile on her face and a kind greeting slipping through her lips. She loves Pokemon and has dreams of becoming a professor of some kind, but she's never known of a woman professor; especially within her region, however someone has mentioned to her that apparently the professor of Unova is a female which has perked her up quite a bit. She's cunning and clever which can be both a positive and negative trait. She's quick, able to get out of bad situations using her wits and her words however she is known to be deceitful and often lies to get her way. As a child, she was much more feminine but found that she was mocked for it; especially because of her somewhat tomboyish personality and interests in Poison types and other odd interests. As such, she now fully embraces her tomboyish nature but she certainly has a soft spot for some cute things.

On the negative end, Erin's mouth often gets her in trouble as she's considered mouthy and bratty while speaking. She has no filter and often says exactly what's on her mind, even if it's not exactly appropriate for the situation. She often served detention while in school due to saying cuss words or speaking her mind about a fellow classmate's attitude or intelligence. As such, on a surface level, she comes off as somewhat rude and uncaring as she doesn't care if what she says hurts your feelings, she'll be completely honest. Actually, oddly enough sometimes Erin herself judges herself too harshly; believing herself to be too childish and that she'll never really be able to grow up. She's usually mature but can display traits that make her seem younger than she actually is, especially in her somewhat excitable and joyful nature.

History: Erin was born in Heahea City on Akala Island, her parents were extremely excited as she was their first born child and they had always wanted a girl. Her mother worked in the Pokemon Center as a technician and her father ran a Pokemon Daycare that babysat other people's Pokemon and doubled as a breeding facility. As such, Erin was often around other Pokemon and grew up being surrounded by eggs and playful Pokemon. And from the time she was around six years old, she developed a deep love and respect for all Pokemon and could already tell her father that her favourite type was Poison. Her father was amused, Poison seemed like an odd pick, usually a girl's favourite type was Fairy or Psychic; but he didn't question his daughter. Especially when a gentleman came in requesting to breed his Arbok, which was when her father saw an opportunity to make his daughter happy. He breed the Pokemon as requested and asked the man if he could take one of the eggs to give to his daughter. The man agreed, but requested he take the smallest egg, as it would be the runt of the litter and probably unfit for battling or contests. Erin's father did just that, and presented his daughter, who was at this time nine, with the egg, which she took great care in caring for so that it would hatch.

The egg, which took a while to hatch decided to hatch around Erin's tenth birthday, and when it did her and her father were both amazed. The baby Ekans that emerged from the egg was certainly smaller than the average Ekans but the little lady was also a shiny variant. Her father was amused once again, as the man who had given them the egg would have had an extremely special Pokemon if he had wanted to take the smallest egg. Erin was immediately excited, naming the little snake "Orochi" after a serpent from a book her father had read her. Her and Orochi developed a strong bond, spending most of their time together. Which made her father extremely happy and proud that he had given his daughter a present she loved. However, all was not exactly well in Erin's life. Her parents, who had always been a little rocky had finally decided to get a divorce around the time Erin was twelve. She was devastated, especially upon learning she would have to pick which parent to live with a majority of the time. In the end, Erin chose her father, whom she spent the majority of her time with anyways.

There wasn't much else interesting that happened in Erin's life, her high school life was mostly uneventful other than a lot of visits to the principals office; as well as a couple suspensions, despite her father's pleading for her to be good. Her father was ever so supporting, especially once his daughter entered what he perceived as her "emo phase" and began dressing differently which actually ended up becoming her usual fashion sense. Her life was mostly good, until something really weird happened about two weeks before her eighteenth birthday. She had an extremely weird dream involving two voices she didn't recognise. The voices called her by an extremely odd name, one she didn't exactly understand, they kept calling her Nihilego. She was confused, especially when the voices kept going on and on about some sort of prophecy; and requesting her presence in a location she couldn't quite make out. One she awoke from the dream, she felt different; feeling like there was somewhere she needed to be, and hearing another different voice. She looked around her bedroom and saw her Ekans speaking to her, her voice was odd and Erin was taken aback by a Pokemon even being able to speak. Orochi told her that she was a Messenger of the Legends and that upon turning eighteen her presence was required in the Hall of Legends. Upon Erin asking where the Hall of Legends was, Orochi gave an odd look and an attempt at a shrug, she told Erin they would know when the time came.

Now, Erin awaits her eighteenth birthday, wanting to know more about her dream; and wanting to know what or who Nihilego is. She also wants to know why she's able to summon gross poisonous sludge at will.

ekans.gif

Name: Orochi
Species: Ekans
Gender: Female

Appearance: Slightly smaller than average, a shiny variation thanks to her father's breeding facilities. Has a scar over her left eye.

Personality: Orochi is a prankster, she loves pulling pranks on her master and anyone else that she can get to fall for her jokes. She's kind, caring deeply for her master and would do anything to protect her. She strives to make herself better and wants to evolve one day in order to be stronger. She's almost as sharp tongued as her master, talking her way out of bad situations and speaking her mind.

Misc: Has an extremely gruff voice, is often mistaken for a male.

Oooh I like.

Would like to reserve for Bug/Genesect. Partner is a cute little Grubbin, since it has to be a bug for Genesect if I'm understanding things right.

Hopefully should have something up by Thursday/Friday.

What do I do now?
Quick question- could one of the powers be the legendaries' signature move? Like Thousand Arrows for the Ground type user?
 

Monster Guy

Fairy type Trainer
No one, other than me is taking Fairy! I am not about to have another female fairy specialist, when there is an utter lack of guys using Fairy type!

I'm using a brand new character just for you! BE GRATEFUL!

Name: Lorenzo Amoré
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Hometown: Laverre City, Kalos

Type: Fairy
Legendary: Xerneas
Powers:

Dazzling Gleam: Lorenzo fires pink, sparkly, flashes of light that damages the opponent.

Cute Charm: Sometimes, people become infatuated with Lorenzo when they touch him. The effects wear off when Lorenzo is far enough away from the victim. It is not something he has control over... Yet.

Sweet Kiss: Lorenzo gives the target a kiss that leaves them giddy and confused.

Play Rough: Lorenzo starts glowing with Fairy energy, and delivers a painful Fairy beatdown on the target. The violence is obscured by cartoonish effects like smoke, stars, and hearts.

Appearance:
lNnromx.png


Lorenzo is somewhat short for a young man his age, standing only at 5'4". He is aware of this, and makes jokes about it if it get's brought up. While he does claim his lack of height adds to his appeal, he does wish he were taller sometimes. Despite seeming weak and fragile based on his appearance, he is actually stronger than he looks. He keeps himself physically fit to compensate for his lack of height, and has a fairly toned physique hidden underneath all the clothes he wears. He was born with a pale complexion, He has neatly styled blonde hair on top of his head, and his bangs go to his eyebrows. He has big violet eyes. A trait that seems to run in his family. As well as a small nose, and a round "Babyface", which give him a youthful appearance. His face is clean-shaven, and his upper body is free of any hair except the top of his head and eyebrows.

Lorenzo is very into fashion, and likes to dress well. He designs his own clothes to reflect his taste, as he has a hard time finding clothes he likes in men's clothing stores. His fancy wardrobe mostly consists of button down dress shirts, vests, trousers, and dress shoes. He always keeps his clothes neat and tidy. It is rare to see him in a simple T-shirt and jeans. His wardrobe contains a lot of different colors, but there will always be something pink in whatever he chooses to wear. His current outfit consists of a pink dress shirt that fits him well. Over this, he wears a sky blue vest. He likes to wear scarves, and the one currently around his shoulders is sky-blue. He also wears a blue pearl bracelet bracelet around his left wrist, and a diamond ring on his right ring finger. On the bottom he wears a pair of sky blue trousers, held up by a belt with a gold buckle. His choice of footwear include a pair of pink dress shoes. He accesorizes this with a pink cap on his head that has a diamond brooch attached to it, and a pair of pink diamond earrings hang from his earlobes. He carries around a sky blue messenger bag.

Personality: Lorenzo has tastes that are usually considered feminine. His favorite color is pink, and a lot of his things are pink. He is very into fashion, and designs his own clothes to reflect his tastes. While he isn't necessarily vain, he does like to take care of his appearance. He carries around a mirror, and often consults it when he feels like he needs a confidence boost. He also doesn't particularly care for getting himself dirty either. His goal in life is to become a clothing designer, because he feels there is a lack of nice clothes for men, though he also doesn't mind making clothes for women. He also has a passion for cute and pretty things. It's the reason why he likes the Fairy type. The Pokemon under it are gorgeous. Anything he perceives to be adorable whether it be a person or a Pokemon makes him squeal excitedly. He also has several childish interests as well. He has a collection of dolls. as well as cute Pokemon plushies, and his room is decorated with posters with characters from his favorite cartoons.

Lorenzo is adorable, and he knows it. He does use it to his advantage if he knows if it will benefit him somehow. Usually to flirt with guys, or get himself out of trouble when they get mad at him. Due to his small size, and child like appearance, he is often perceived as being weak. This has earned him both the ire of bullies who liked having an easy target, as well as the care of nicer people who felt like they had protect him. He works out regularly to compensate for this, but people still coddle him. He considers it both a blessing because it gets him attention and people think he's cute, and a curse because some people treat him like a child even though he's almost an adult. When he does get bullied, he'll usually respond with some sassy comment, but it does get to him once in a while. He doesn't understand why so many people have problems with boys liking pink?

Regardless, Lorenzo is a cheerful optimistic person. He is often seen with a smile on his face, and acting like life is all cupcakes and rainbows. He believes it's easier to live life when you expect the best than expecting the worst. This does not mean that he is never sad. He cries openly when he's sad, but it doesn't take much to make him feel better. He is also very affectionate. He likes giving, and receiving hugs, and often gets very close to people. He devlops crushes on guys rather easily. These qualities make him a natural flirt. While he likes people in general, he is attracted to men. You can often find him staring at, and flirting with guys he finds attractive. In general he is an emotional person. While he seems childish at times, Lorenzo is a happy, fun loving young man, who just wants to be accepted for who he is.

History: Lorenzo Amoré was born in Laverre City, to Italian parents. He grew up in a prominent, wealthy, upperclass family. His parents doted on both him and his older sister, Cadence. While Lorenzo was homeschooled until he reached a certain age like his sister, the boy liked to play with the other kids in the neighborhood. Lorenzo was never interested in the things typical boys were interested in. He liked cute little ponies, and Barbie dolls while most boys liked playing with toy cars and football. This made him the target of bullying by other boys. Lorenzo didn't really care much, because he usually just played with the girls. They played better anyway. When the bullying did make him sad, he always had his sister to turn to for comfort.

Things started to get different when he was in middle school. He noticed the other boys talking about girls. His own sister was often the subject of their attention too. Lorenzo found himself uninterested in the subject of women. Sure, there were some cute girls in the school, but the guys were way better. For a while he kept his attraction to guys a secret. He wasn't sure there was anybody else that understood how he felt. After he saw pictures of his idol Movie Star André Bellamy, kissing other hot young actors in magazines, he slowly grew more comfortable with his homosexuality. He eventually found other gay boys at the school, and started flirting.

Cadence caught him kissing a boy one day, and that was when he came out to his family. All of his family members were fully supportive of him, and the fact that he was gay was not that big of a deal. His sister even enjoyed having someone she could talk about boys with. Now, Lorenzo dates and flirts with other guys a lot, but he still hasn't had a serious relationship yet.

He learned how to sew and design clothes early on in life. He realized quickly he wanted to design clothes for a living when he discovered the lack of clothes for guys that interested him. It was all the same thing in his eyes, while women get so much more variety. This forced him to learn how to fix them to suit his tastes. It started by purposely dyeing white clothes pink, and it progressed from there. He wasn't opposed to creating nice things for women though, and he gets practice by making clothes for his collection of fashion dolls to wear.

One particular summer, he and his family took a trip to the Alola region. While on the trip, he encountered a blue Pokemon with a lot of flowers around it. While he knew a lot about the Fairy type, this was a Pokemon he had never seen before. The two bonded quickly, and by the time the trip was over, Lorenzo came home with a new Pokemon.

His life was pretty uneventful for the most part. Then, about two weeks before his eighteenth birthday. He had an odd dream involving two voices he didn't recognize. The voices called him Xerneas. He had read about Xerneas before. He was the Deity of Life. Why would they be calling him that? He was confused, especially when the voices kept going on and on about some sort of prophecy; and requesting his presence in a location he wasn't aware of. When he awoke from the dream, he felt strange, but he didn't think too much about it. Then, he heard another different voice. He looked around, and saw the voice was coming from Fiorentina. He was shocked at first, but found the idea of a talking Pokemon cool, and rolled with it. Fiorentina told the young man that she was a Messenger of the Legends and that upon turning eighteen his presence was required in the Hall of Legends. Lorenzo was excited about the possibility about an adventure, but when he asked the Comfey where the Hall of Legends was, Fiorentina didn't know, and said the answer would reveal itself when the time came.

Now, Lorenzo awaits his eighteenth birthday, wanting to know more about his dream; learn more about Xerneas. He also wants to know why people keep declaring their love for him after they touch him, or why he can produce pretty pink flashes of light.

Partner
comfey.gif


Name: Fiorentina
Species: Comfey
Gender: Female

Appearance: A shiny Comfey he bonded with while on a trip in the Alola region. Lorenzo often changes her flowers to match his outfit. They are currently pink and sky-blue.

Personality: Fiorentina is like her trainer in many ways. They both have a happy-go-lucky personality. She is often bouncing off the walls and always seems to happy about everything. Some would find her constant cheeriness annoying, but Lorenzo seems to love it. Lorenzo enjoys acting like an older sibling to her for a change,

Misc: Sometimes, Lorenzo likes to wear her around his neck as a fashion accessory.

In the future, yes. For starting; preferably not as the powers are still somewhat weak. owo

Reserves/Wips noted as well!

Hey, can I make a reservation. If possible, I'd like to reserve The Dark Type, with Yvetal and a partner Deino

In the future, yes. For starting; preferably not as the powers are still somewhat weak. owo

Reserves/Wips noted as well!

Cool! In that case, I think I'll ask for a reservation for the Ground type with Zygarde (poor green cell snake needs some love XD)

Tis the Hour to Reload
Gosh dang it, Mon, I wanted Xerneas! DX I was gonna play out a character from that little story I sent you... And just when I was gonna console myself with picking Yveltal, I find it's also taken. Gah. School...

Anyways, before I reserve anything, quick question, is it okay to use only one of the traits or do we have to use all the traits mentioned for the types?

Metallic Wonder
WIP for an Electric dude. I maaaay change his Pokemon, I'm not sure yet.
Edit: Changed Pokemon to Alolan Geodude.

Name: Alexander "Alex" Brennan
Age: Seventeen
Gender: Male
Hometown: Nimbasa City, Unova
Type: Electric
Legendary: Zapdos
Powers:
- Thunderbolt: Alex release a powerful bolt of electricity.
- Galvanize: The constant stream of electricity within him turns his Hyper Voice power into an Electric-Type move. he may also accidentally mildly shock people touching him.

- Charge: By reaching his limits as of how much electricity he can store, Alex raises his defensive capabilities, as well as powering up his other moves.

Appearance: Alex is a young man of slightly below average height, and a slender, yet rather fit physique. He is naturally scrawny, and works out in order to look more fit. He's also rather strong as a result of this. His skin is fair, with a slight genetic tan. He doesn't spend too much time outdoors, but luckily, he doesn't need to. His hair is medium short, and unruly. His natural hair color is blonde, but he has had his hair dyed with all the colors of the rainbow, and then some. His eyes are friendly and energetic, with a bright, electrifying yellow color. He's an overall.. Colorful person, considered attractive by most.

For clothing, Alex isn't picky. He likes to dress simple, casual and comfortable, his only criteria being to show off the results of his working out. To do so, he often wears a yellow sidecut Tank top, showing off his physique. He sports this with a pair of regular light blue jeans, and comfortable and practical sneakers. He wears a pair of fingerless black gloves with a yellow star on them, and a blue beanie, covering up most of his colorful hairstyle. He wears a red headset around his neck, which is connected to an iPod he always carries around with him, as well as a serie of colorful wristbands on his right forearm from a variety of events he has attended. He carries around a wireless microphone that he powers up with the use of his electric powers as well.

Personality: To say that Alex has a sparkly personality would be a grave understatement. He is quite simple to notice in a crowd, if not for his appearance then for his equally colorful personality. He is never seen with anything but a smile on his face, and is open and welcoming to everyone. He loves people, and is very oblivious if they don't love him back. He's not necessarily a people-pleaser, although he always make sure to help out wherever he is needed. It is easy to get along with him,although a bit challenging to actually properly befriend him. He has a tendency of wearing his feelings on his sleeves, and is oblivious whenever they gets hurt. He is optimistic, and sure to lighten any sour moods with either a joke, or a semi-inspirational speech. Either way, he looks out for his friends, and is quite the team player. He is reliable and headstrong, never backing out of a difficult situation. This enthusiasm borders on stubbornness.

Alex is a musically invested person. He has a very talented at singing, and has a strong voice. He's been interested in music since he was a kid, and has played around with a variety of instruments until he figured out he liked singing the most. He is also proficient at the DJ booth, although he mostly keeps to singing. His talent varies from clear arias to falsettos and baritones. He wants to go professional some day, and is going to study music at college. He is also very skilled at dancing, due to his stamina and physical fitness overall.

Besides his normally social way of being, Alex has some socially awkward tendencies. These usually comes to sight on topics regarding flirting, or romance in general. He doesn't have a preferred gender he likes, rather going after personalities. This can make him seem innocent and naive at times, something he is unaware of himself. He likes jokes, and often try and maintain the "team spirit" by telling jokes to lift the mood. His energetic personality also has a bad habit of making him impatient and impulsive, sometimes acting without thinking the situation through first.

History: Alexander Brennan was born in a rather wealthy environment in Nimbasa City in the Unova region. His mother was a doctor, and his father travelled a lot, leaving him home to be raised partially by his mother and her sister. He was always a cheerful kid, getting along with everyone, stealing the hearts of everyone who met him. He loved the colorful city he lived in, and was greatly influenced by the artistic lifestyle of many who lived there. He did decently in school and had a healthy social life, getting along with more people than he didn't. He never really encountered any unfortunate situations in his social life, even though he didn't have a real best friend. His personality made him wel liked, but he didn't really open up to anyone. Regardless, that didn't see to be a problem for anyone. Besides the partly absence of his father, one could say his life was perfect.

You probably expected a big fat "But" here, although i must disappoint. Alex' father often brought home gifts to his wife and only son after his travels, and one time, he brought back home an egg from a tropical faraway land. The egg hatched around Alex' tenth birthday, and contained a Geodude. The pokemon was known as being from the Kanto region, but this one was different. Apparently, the Geodudes found in the Alola region were different due to the local atmosphere or.. something. Regardless, Alex had found a new friend, one who would be with him for quite some time.

During his entire life, Alex had been interested in music. He loved listening to it, and he loved making it. there were many artistic personalities in Nimbasa city, so feeding his interests wasn't difficult.He took on several courses in instruments, as well as vocal practice. It was clear the boy had a talent for singing, and this was what he enjoyed the most. He aspired to be an idol, like the famous musician Ryuki. With his talents, that dream didn't seem to be too far-off either.

His life was bright and prosperous, and he enjoyed every last minute of it. However, things turned weird about two weeks before his 18th birthday. He dismissed the dreams at first. Unclear foggy landscapes with what seemed to be a voice coming from somewhere. It took some days to manage to actually make sense of it all. The first he learned was the word, Zapdos. Zapdos.. What did it mean? He didn't know. But he knew one thing: It sounded awesome. Zapdos! Maybe that could be his stage name? Was that the dream? He was being referred to as Zapdos. Maybe this was the future? Not likely. Yet, it was awesome. He was, admittedly a bit too occupied with the cool name to pay attention to all the talk about prophesies and thunder.

Weird took a turn for the weirder one day, about a week before his birthday after waking up from the dream. The thunderus bird had spoken to him again, telling tales of heroism and glory. Waking up from the dream, he had been formally greeted by Rocky. Formally greeted. With words. Still thinking he was dreaming, Alex kept talking to him as he did his morning routine. It wasn't before he met the weird looks from his mother that he realized the scenario. He was now a weirdo talking to his Pokemon. Lots of people did that, right? Not that many got answers though. He lost a lot of sleep the following days, staying up talking to Rocky, who told him about the dreams, what they meant etc. during this period, he started experiencing a lot of blackouts at his house. Rocky explained to him that "his powers were awakening", whatever that meant..

074-a.png

Name: Rocky
Species:Alolan Geodude
Gender: Male.

Appearance: Rocky looks like any other Alolan Geodude. Only exception is a yellow bandana wrapped around his right arm.

Personality: As a somewhat ironic contrast to Alex, Rocky is a calm and collected Pokemon. He doesn't speak too much, but once he does, he has a surprisingly british and gentlemanly voice. He dislikes battles, despite his strength, and is more comfortable watching from the sidelines. He is supportive and optimistic, like his trainer, although he has a different view on how to go about and reach ones goals. He is not as impulsive as Alex is, and is often the brain of the duo.

Why not both?
Welp, looks like another RP I can use Fern in - the Flying type description fits her to a T. I appreciate the opportunity XD.

Can I throw down a reserve for now, with the mighty Rayquaza as my legendary (if whoever is playing Dragon wants him, I can use Tornadus instead.) and a Fletchling as a companion? Not sure when I'd be able to get this up, but it shouldn't take too long, since most of the signup has already been written (just gotta refine/adapt the personality and history a bit and I'm good to go).

Gah why are so many cool RPs popping up during the month when I don't have time to work on sign ups? -_-

I'm interested but would it be too much to ask if I didn't start my SU until after the 22nd? I'll withhold reserving a specific type for now - actually I'd be fine just reserving the last type to be picked, if there's enough interest for it to come to that.

All. But you can slightly change or tweak them/expand on them.

@Tangeh: yeah that's cool, I can pop down an extended reserve if there's something you have your heart set on.

@everyone else: reserves noted

~~~

Edit: My sign up has been finished if anyone needs more direction with their's they can now look at mine. I may scoop up a second charater depending on which other types get picked up, I will wait for most people who have reserved to finish however to see if anyone else takes a second character.

As seen in pokedexes
Question about powers: Do they all have to be corresponding to the type, or is it more as long as the focus on the type is there the other powers can be more unrelated to the type. I mainly ask because while I get that Genesect has to be Bug because there aren't alternatives (and the traits of bug go much better with my character tbh than steel so I'm not complaining), Genesect itself draws a lot from the robot elements of its design and I'm curious how much of that I can use.

I'd prefer if the powers came from your type or something similar but like if your character sung or something like that Hyper Voice could be a choice. For the most part at least have two bug type moves and I'll give you mostly freedom (within reason) for the other two powers, and then as the RPG goes on you'll gain more and see other moves. (You can throw some steel moves in there too, it's unfortunate that Genesect is the only Bug legend still)

I hope I kinda gave you the answer you were looking for?

Alright, med school's out for me...can I have a reserve? I'll try Dragon...put me down as that for now, with Dialga/Gible...though I might consider Fire or Ice. XD

I swear I'm not here because I felt lonely in Legends Guardians the moment the others came here This actually looks interesting but my favorite type got taken away (which I understand completely) along with not being able to use Ground because Initiation the Sandygast doesn't fit with Ghost and pranky is something I've already done before imo. ;_;

I guess Psychic looks nice but I can't figure out which Unova Psychic Pokemon could fit with it (because I like them all and I want to use one .__.). Munna? Elgyem? Gothita? Solosis? Options... .__.

And to the new people I don't know, I'm still new at this RP thing so don't try to intimidate me.

Quick question: Does to move the character's powers are based off have to be one that the legendary can actually learn without TMs? Because Rayquaza's natural movepool is pretty limited.

I'm slightly confused because you can pick any partner of your type, it doesn't need to fit with the personality or anything and you're not limited to one region either; unless you wanna be. personal opinion is Solosis tbh

@Vern: Newp, just typing and junk for the most part. Legendary signatures can be learned later. Erin just knows all poison moves but I could've given her a different move as well but eh.

@Jean: reserve noted
