I guess we could see how that turns out. Might be tempted to at least try for the Mikazuki replacement but we'll see I guess.

Pokémon: The Next Hunt

Rhea Ramone

It had only been a few weeks since Rhea began studying in Paldea but it was long enough to notice the differences between it and Galar. Curries weren't as popular here, for one thing, with the trendy food being big elaborate sandwiches. The areas surrounding Mesagoza seemed a lot more open than her home region too, to an extent only really comparable to the Wild Area. The Pokemon League was different too, although admittedly she knew that Galar was more an exception to how other regions organized things. But the big difference she was really noticing right now, as she sat in a shady area of the schoolyard...

"Uuugh..."

...Was how much brighter and warmer it was here. It could've been worse, she supposed. She could've transfered to somewhere tropical like Alola or something, which would've been utterly unbearable for someone from such a dark and dingy place as Spikemuth, but still... At least her Pokémon seemed to be enjoying the weather, the two of them tossing a Pokéball between each other playfully. Of course, since Mudpie lacked arms she had to keep heading the ball, and Gigantor kept getting hit as it stopped to flex at anyone who passed by, but they seemed to be having fun at least. Good for them. At least no-one was bothering her right now, unlike that poor goth kid nearby.

Even if they were being bothered by a cute tomboy. Not that Rhea had a thing for tomboys or anything (obvious lie). With nothing else to really do right now, she leaned forward a bit to get a better look at what was going on. Just because she was curious, of course, and not because there was a cute tomboy involved (obvious lie). Really, she just wanted to see where this was heading, and it had absolutely nothing to do with a cute tomboy's back being in her line of sight (obvious lie).

...Honest.

And here I was thinking that G-Witch would've brought in a bunch more Gundam RPers. :(

It's villainess time!

Pokémon: The Next Hunt

Rhea

"... ... ...Hey."

Full Name: Rhea Ramone

Age: 16

Favorite Color: Black

Favorite Subject: Art

Favorite Teacher: "Officially", Hassel, due to his philosophies on art and his connections to the other Elite Four members. Actually Dendra, even if she's somewhat embarrassed to admit it.

Appearance: Rhea is short (only around 5') and slim, having a somewhat androgynous look to her. She always wears her jacket over her uniform, and the back is covered in patches for various bands and musicians (Piers, Roxie, Ryuki and surprisingly Ryme are all represented), as well as a few Team Yell ones too.

Personality: Rhea doesn't talk much, with many finding her somewhat unapproachable. She doesn't exactly hate other people, she's just not very good at socializing and often finds herself on her own. Those that manage to get her to open up find her to be rather deadpan and sarcastic but ultimately a good person... Just a really sarcastic one. She's a lot more enthusiastic when talking about music, however, and if given the chance will talk your ears off about her favourite bands, and the history of Spikemuth's punk scene, and the differences between Galarian punk and Unovan punk, and maybe mention that whilst she doesn't usually listen to rap she's a fan of Ryme, and...

...Eventually she'll realize what she's doing, and suddenly become very quiet out of embarrassment. But at least it's not the most embarrassing thing she can talk about, she figures, so it's not that bad.

Rhea absolutely idolizes Rika of the Elite Four, considering her the coolest trainer in the world and wishing to be more like her. Like music, this is another subject she will talk on end about if pressed, only she'll get even more embarrassed when she realizes what she's doing with this particular subject.

Backstory: Originally from Spikemuth, Galar, Rhea was never a very sociable child. She never felt like she fit in with the other kids, and a little nagging voice at the back of her head kept telling her that she was "different" and they would never really accept her for who she was. Growing up, there were only two sources of solace that she felt comfortable with.

First, as one would expect from a Spikemuth girl, was punk rock. She spent countless hours of her childhood listening to not only local legend Piers, but others from regions near and far like Roxie from Unova. Just listening wasn't enough for her, however, and she slaved long and hard learning how to play the guitar so she could make the music she loved so much. The only time she felt she could really pour her heart out was when she was performing, even if there were some lyrics she wasn't ready to sing in public.

The second source was the only group of people she really felt comfortable around: Team Yell. Whilst it took her a little time to open up to them even slightly, she soon found herself wholeheartedly supporting the local trainer Marnie as she made her way through the Galar League, although she wasn't aware of some of the more underhanded way some of the other team members showed their support. All she really cared about was showing Marnie how much she was loved, and how much Spikemuth would support her, and how much she...

...In the end Marnie never won the championship, but at least her performance brought a lot of attention to Spikemuth. Even some of the strongest trainers from other regions wanted to check out the new gym leader, and one day a member of the Paldea Elite Four decided to do just that, challenging Marnie to an exhibition match. Rhea watched from the front row, and this was the first time she had ever seen the trainer called Rika in the flesh. And as soon as she layed eyes on her, suddenly so much made sense. This woman, so confident and powerful, so strong and pretty, this was what she wanted! She wanted to... To be like her? Was that it? Her mind was a little fuzzy from watching her, but she knew she had just met her idol. The next day her parents was overwhelmed with surprise at how much she went on about Rika and Paldea; they had never seen her as talkative or enthusiastic about anything before, although they mostly just seemed to pick up that their daughter wanted to study in Paldea. Arrangements were made, and soon enough Rhea was headed off to Papas Academy, hoping to properly meet her idol this time.

Pokémon:

Pokemon

Starter

Pokémon: Golett
Nickname: Gigantor
Personality: Very friendly and sociable, as opposed to its trainer. Actually a bit of a showoff, and often tries to show others how strong and talented it is to mixed results. Really looking forward to when it can finally evolve and truly be ready to fight for right against wrong.
Current Moveset: Shadow Punch, Ice Punch, Pound, Defence Curl
Ability: Iron Fist

Team

Pokémon: Wooper (Paldean)
Nickname: Mudpie
Personality: Possibly even friendlier than Gigantor, to the point that Rhea often has to remind her that she's covered in poison and really shouldn't be rubbing against every human and Pokemon she meets. Perpetually cheerful, and seemingly nothing can bring her down. Really likes dancing to that loud angry music her trainer listens to.
Current Moveset: Mud Shot, Tail Whip, Poison Tail, Toxic Spikes
Ability: Water Absorb

Quirks: Rhea uses a Ball Guy Rotom Phone case, because you can take the girl out of Galar but you can't take Galar out of the girl. Attached to it is a custom keychain made by Team Yell of Spikemuth's current gym leader, Marnie.

Rhea is a big fan of curry, and a pretty decent cook to boot.

Rhea still plays guitar, sometimes playing at open mic nights in the cafés and bars of Mesagoza. Usually it's just covers, as she's still not confident in her own songwriting skills.

In case I have been too subtle about what her feelings regarding Marnie and Rika actually are, Rhea is a lesbian and crushes on both of them.

Relationships: TBA

Oh hey thanks for the reminder. Totally didn't almost forget to add moves until now by the way that would be silly ahahah.

Pokémon: The Next Hunt

Oh boy I feel like parts of this are a mess and even after all this time I still can't end a backstory section in an organic way but still.

The Next Hunt: A Pokémon Scarlet/Violet Rp

Oh right since someone already claimed ghost I guess I'm going to have to be ground if I'm starting with Golett. I can work with that I guess, probably spin it that my character specifically tranferred to Paldea because Rika is their idol or something.

The Next Hunt: A Pokémon Scarlet/Violet Rp

I was considering a transfer student from Galar to justify it anyways, so that works out just fine.

The Next Hunt: A Pokémon Scarlet/Violet Rp

Interest, although we'll see how things turn out I guess.

I do have one question though: are we limited to Pokemon available in Paldea, or can we use anything within reason? Mostly asking because Golurk is my favourite and I'd want to start with a Golett but it's sadly not in SV, but I have a fallback for my trainer's signature Pokemon (specifically Tinkaton) if it's not allowed.
