[OOC] Alola! From Alola!

[Savo]

Aaayyy, more people, great! More plausible bonds to add to our bonds list! Except for the new kid.

Quick, everyone make him feel as unwelcome as possible!

[Bornlucky]

Here's what I got, let me know if anything needs changing:

Akoni

Name: Akoni

Age: 13

Gender: Male

Apperance: Akoni is a bit short for his age at around five feet and five inches tall. He has brown eyes coupled with short, jet black hair and a straw hat that allows only strands of it to be seen at a given time. As a farmer's child, he is most commonly seen wearing blue, denim overalls. The overalls have a variety of rips and tears that are covered up with sewn in brown patches. Akoni wears a checkered shirt with a red and black pattern under said overalls, but has no pants to speak of.

Personality: Akoni is a precocious child who has been noted to have a natural talent with pokemon battling. He is very knowledgable about strategies and the most effective methods to bring out the full potential of each creature. He can find something good to say about near any pokemon, even some of the ones most would be scared senseless of. He would have left to take on the trials two years ago, but certain family issues have prevented him from leaving. Akoni is a hard worker and confident (rightfully so, he thinks) about his abilities. He is the sort of boy to happily go off on tangents about pokemon and help those who need advice getting better. Generally, he is friendly and always happy to strike up a conversation, provided that he has no responsibilities he has to attend to first. His biggest downfall has to be his great pride, which makes it hard for him to swallow defeat or even ask for the help of others if he needs it. For all the help he gives others, he likes to pretend that he's perfectly capable of doing everything on his own.

Bonds: Molokai: Akoni has a deep bond with his Mimikyu and lets it spend time outside of its pokeball for as long as it wants. Unlike any sane person, he has no problem with Molokai taking off its disguise in private. Although, he prefers it be kept on when they're outside as to not cause mass hysteria. It's happened quite a few times already...

Ano: His father, once a wealth of information from his days as a trainer, but is now a simple farmer who can barely get up from bed these days after the death of his wife three years ago. Akoni's relationship with him is a bit strained. The boy has had to pull his father's weight for quite some time now. In a sense, Ano is the one holding him back from his journey. While he still loves him, he has grown to resent his father for holding him back.

Pokemon:

Pokemon's Nature: Molokai is protective of Akoni to a frightening degree. While somewhat silent and shy around others, it is no stranger to threatening those it feels are a danger to its trainer. To this day, Akoni is the one person who has seen what Molokai looks like under its disguise. According to him, it's pretty cute. Not a single person believes him.

Pokemon's Move Shadow Sneak, Swords Dance, Leech Life, and Play Rough.

Am open to creating bonds with the other characters if anyone wants to!

@Alder

Ooh~ Akoni sounds like an interesting character~ I can't wait to see him in action!

Here is my character. Let me know if anything needs to be fixed for it.

Trinity

Name: Trinity Cain

Age: 13

Gender: Female

Apperance: Her long blonde hair is generally pulled off to the side, and her pale skin tone causes her to stand out. Her red glasses she generally has to push up, especially if she is in a hurry. She is a little small for her age, but she never lets that stop her from doing anything. Her dark green eyes stand out clearly on her face. (see photo for better description)

Photo

Personality: She is generally a kind and understanding person. She is a little shy when she first meets people, but eventually she will warm up to them. Trinity cares immensely for those she is close to and doesn't want any harm to come to them. Even though she is smaller than most kids her age, she will fight to help her friends and she is loyal to them. She is a little bit of a hot head though and is quick to anger, but is also just as quick to calm down.

Bonds: Her strongest bonds she has is with her parents. Trinity is an only child so she has grown close to her parents. She is generally closest to her mother when it comes to it, her father is always out and about traveling around the island. The family is originally from the Johto region which, and there is a slight strain on their relationship with such a big move away from everyone they knew.

She also has a strong relationship with her Wooper Kala, who was given to her by her grandparents before they left Johto. She keeps close to her Pokemon friend and hopes to remain close to her Wooper

Kala

Kala the Wooper

Pokemon's Nature: The happy go lucky pokemon generally sticks with its trainer and always smiles. It is getting used to its strange surroundings, but is happy to try and befriend any pokemon. Kala is originally from Johto like her owner, but likes the sunshine in the Alola region.

Pokemon's Move
Mud Shot
Water Gun
Tail Whip
Mud Sport
Slam

@BlueSky44

This is pretty good although I have to ask you to remove one move from Kala's moveset, I will repeat all Pokemon have access to every move but at the start only specialized in four for balance sake~ Hope you do not mind~

EDIT:

[+]

Name: Isacc

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Apperance:

Appearance

Personality: Isacc is a fairly approachable guy who doesn't take kindly to people who think their above anyone else. He is quite confident in his battling abilities and has trained several pokemon through the years. Isacc respects anyone he thinks has potential to be a strong trainer and will usually offer advice to anyone who he thinks could use some. He's a level-headed individual and able to keep his cool in stressful situations usually first to offer advice.

Bonds:
1.His father who he gets along with fairly well though his dad loves to bug him and constantly trying to find him a girlfriend.
2.His chesnaught that that for the most part is like a butler he was also Isacc's starter when he first became a trainer at the age of 10.
3.His Goomy he nicknamed Ryume this is the pokemon he chose to use as his first team member in the alola region. The goomy is newly hatched but is extremely close to Isacc already.

Pokemon:

Pokemon's Nature: (for battle purposes he's mild) Ryume is a fairly mild mannered but he is extremely defiant to anyone beside Isacc and will ignore any commands given to him unless it's Isacc.

Pokemon's Move
1.Flail
2.Bubble
3.Rain Dance
4.Dragon Breath

@Cerberus0807

I admit this character needs more working on, it's rather shallow at the moment, I open up the New kid Role until you can prepare a more detailed cs.

[BlueSky44]

Oops, accidentally forgot to get rid of one of the moves when I posted, I originally designed it to not have mud sport. Edited it in my post with my CS.

[Matador]

@Bornlucky

Glad you like him! Would you be alright with Akoni and Gaige having a bond? I think it might make for a good dynamic since they're both really interested in pokemon. I think Akoni might have respect for him based on his intellect despite how goofy he seems on the surface.

[Cerberus0807]

@Bornlucky okay well your not exactly saying what to edit. What about my character sheet isn't detailed enough you cant just go oh it isn't detailed enough without explaining what I'd need to add beacuse from my perspective it looks as fleshed out as the other peoples.

[Bornlucky]

@Bornlucky

@Alder

Yeah, Of course, I don't mind~
I think Gaige would appreciate any acknowledgment of his intelligence since he's used to be seeing as a joke by most people.
Gaige would Help Akoni if he decided to do his Island challenge and Gaige would ask a million question on what a Mimikyu looks like under the cloth. I think the two would be interesting friends and the two would help each other with battling and training with each other.

[Matador]

@Bornlucky

Yeah, that sounds good! Maybe Gaige could be the person who kept teaching Akoni more and more facts about pokemon after his dad fell into his depression? And I've definitely got plans to make him take the challenge, so he'll be leaving with everyone else.

[Bornlucky]

@BlueSky44

Thank you for the edit~ And sorry for the wait~
Do you want to work on Gaige and Trinity's bond?

@Bornlucky

Yeah, that sounds good! Maybe Gaige could be the person who kept teaching Akoni more and more facts about pokemon after his dad fell into his depression? And I've definitely got plans to make him take the challenge, so he'll be leaving with everyone else.

@Alder

That sounds good to me~
And I think Trials will be a big part of the story for a few of the characters so I'm hoping a few more join in on the trials~

[Matador]

@Bornlucky
Cool! So around when do we start?

[Bornlucky]

@Alder
It depends, we can start as soon as the new kid role is taken and everybody who posted their completed characters place their cs in the cs tab~

Alex

Name: Alexander 'Alex' Rossmoore

Age: 15

Gender: Male

Appearance

Personality: Before Alex moved to the Alola region, he was always very open to everyone. He was the kid that would always make everyone laugh, and even if at the cost of his own embarrassment, he would laugh with them. But ever since he was torn away from his friends, and the rest of his family back home, and sent to live with his aunt and uncle after his parents untimely death, he has been reserved, quiet. It's not that he's shy, or scared of making new friends, but he fears for himself. That if he makes new bonds, new friendships, meets new people and gets to know them and open up to them, all of that will be taken away from him, sucked into the black void of his past, forever looping, taking everything he loved and cared for away from him, over and over again, until he would be left with nothing. The only thing he knows he won't lose, is the one that stuck with him the whole time, Crimson, his Misdreavus. The only living thing that he trusts to be with him.

Bonds: Crimson His Pokemon, Misdreavus. Given to him by his parents at the age of 10, Crimson has been with him every step of the way. Crimson is the only living thing he trusts anymore.

Kau'i - His aunt on his fathers side. She tries to get him to open up to her, but she thinks the best thing for him to do is to complete the island trials, and find his belief and trust from his journey.

Ali'i - His uncle. His uncle doesn't care for him much, and he tries to get his wife to let him be. He thinks that he is a lost cause, and didn't care for his wife's brother or his family, causing him to be negligent to his nephew.

Pokemon: Misdreavus

Pokemon's Nature: Misdreavus is calm and collected most of the time. She tries to be Alex's strength when he has none, and tries to comfort him. The bond she shares with him is more than just human and Pokemon. She knows what he's feeling, and feels the pain that he does, when he does. She has a bond that neither her, nor Alex can explain. But whatever it is, it is something strong that has kept them together for as long as they have been. Crimson believes that her and Alex can get through anything, as long as their bond is strong enough.

Thank you ^^

@AbysmalDemon

You're welcome~
And yeah, it's okay~
I might make the rule that each Pokemon can only have 2 TM Moves for balance sake~

[AbysmalDemon]

@Bornlucky

Sounds good ^^

And last question. What is your stance on shinies?

[Asura]

Any wiggle room on Alola Pokemon? I ain't much a fan of 'em.

@Asura

You can use any Pokemon that can be found in Alola new or otherwise~

[Savo]

I should probably reserve a spot considering my app is about done and all I'm doing is working out bonds xD

Edit: Basically what I have as of now; probably need a few more possible bonds xP

Samuel Ayers

"*Yawn* yo!... did I sleep in late again?"

Name:
Samuel Ayers

Age:
15

Gender:
Male

Appearance:
Samuel is one of the few older teens around the place, though he isn't one of the larger giants wandering the isles. Standing at about 177.8 cm, this brunette hair hued boy is around average height with unkempt hair. While it seems to spike off in different directions, it's actually a lot softer and smooth to the touch. Sam's eyes are usually half open for, well, half the day (or until he runs), whilst they become wider than a Snorlax later on in the day; his eyes are a bright olive coloration. He can be often caked in sweat, though that's more attributed to the unusual wear for the weather around Alola. The only thing that really isn't out of place is his cyan tank top with writing on it. Sams wardrobe also involves a white jacket with red stripes running down both sleeves. Finally, he has dull, worn out green pants with jet black shoes.

Personality:

Samuel can easily be considered a walking contradictions of sorts; on one end he enjoys relaxing to the point where he falls asleep (and much to the chagrin of Jojo). On one end, if in the correct mood, he can be just as active as his first pokemon an attempt to get some of his friends to go on runs with him... which is a bad idea.

While he does have an open and happy go lucky demeanor, he still has quips of immaturity. He enjoys messing around with people and pokemon alike, teasing or "misplacing" (moving/hiding) objects in the vicinity. Sam even loves messing with Jojo when they are running such as spooking him when running after going out of sight... lets just say he seldom does that anymore considering he got punched in the gut one too many times. Asking him to stop is rather risky as it's a fifty-fifty chance he will continue messing with you or actually end his charades.

Regardless, if asked for help, he will most likely willingly go along with it, considering he never has anything better to do. Usually a little more optimistic when requested for assistance. During this duration, he never acts irresponsible and will normally act a little frustrated if he sees someone slacking off with little to no good reason. Even with his assistance, he is unsure of what he wants for his future, but he knows one thing - he has no plans to inherit his moms dojo.

Bonds:
Mom:
Sam loves his mom a lot and maintains a tight relationship wtih her, but feels she could be a little less demanding, especially when it comes to his workout routines. She wants him to take over the local dojo one day, but he has other plans for the future since he isn't entirely sure of it. More often than not, she's very encouraging of Sam and has let him have a lot of freedom on a lot of things.

Dad:
While he is usually out of the region on business ventures, when he usually comes back, there will be pranks involved. Sam and his father will usually contest each other over who can mess around with each other better. Sometimes his mom may get involved which normally ends badly for the duo. They have a little difficulty understanding each others limits.

Keiko:
She's one of the few people he can consider to be a very close friend of his. Sam has known this stylish gal since the age of six. While formerly shy around her, Samuel bonded with her through creativity involving any adventure... which started with a torn shirt. While he has, erm, "grown" more mature, he still takes an interest in some of her activities, mainly dancing. He often non-maliciously teases her over her height and other items, though for the most part he is very friendly with her.

Jojo:
Jojo came from his mother's Machamp, Atlass. While he was personally hatched by Sam, he doesn't seem to tolerate his "father's" somewhat lethargic attitude, though that could be because he loves being physically active. Even so, when he does see Sam push himself, he doubles his own efforts. At the end of the day, even with some of his indolent actions and attitude, he can never find himself to really be annoyed; secretly enjoys Sam not waking up (considers it a workout in its own).

---

Jojo

Pokemon:
Machop

Gender:
Male

Pokemon's Nature:
Jojo comes off as somewhat of a serious pokemon, despite his eccentric actions such as peculiar posing. He often spends most of his time striving to drag Samuel out of bed, usually with some form of annoyance. When Sam does give in, they go out for a work out in the form of a run or two which makes Jojo feel spectacular. Jojo can also be almost unmovable to any challenge and even stubborn for attempting to complete it. Enjoys playing volley ball.

Jojo also notes Atlass as an opponent he plans to take down in the future.
