Good to see some interest building here. The basic premise for this RP is going to be somewhat of a twist on the traditional Pokemon RP. Ten trainers, most of which have never met one another before, come to the far away Viore Region, drawn by its rich but lost history, diverse Pokemon population, and the draw of the Viore League Tournament.

I'm trying to leave many elements unknown, as to help the story progress and such. The important things will be revealed at the start, and eventually some minor things will fall into place as the RP progresses. I'm trying to make this a more character driven RP, so your character's decisions will impact how the story progresses.

Speaking of Revealing things, here's some info on Legendary Guardians and a Character Sheet if you want to whip one up.

[h3]The Legendary Guardians[/h3]
[i]A Report Prepared by Professor Edward Maple of New Amber Town[/i]

[i]The Legendary Guardians were a group of people far in Viore's ancient past who defended the region from a tyrannical king who wielded what is only known as the Great Dragon (Whether or not this is actually a Pokemon is up to great debate). However, after saving the land, they vanished, claiming that new guardians would be chosen if the world would fall into peril once more.

The were known as the Legendary Guardians because they were said to have bonded with and gained powers from Legendary Pokemon. Whether that is true or not is still up to debate. What we do know is that they were a very important group, having monuments and memorials built to honor the deeds they accomplished. No one knows exactly what happened to them all, they say they just went their separate ways and vanished from the public eye.

What I have seen, however, points me to believe they at least had some type of bond with the Legendary Pokemon, as many drawings and statues found from the era show many images of humans with figures who resemble those of the known Legendary Pokemon. That is all I know about the subject, but my research is ongoing.[/i]

Now obviously the purpose and abilities of the Legendary Guardians are somewhat spelled out here. Legendary Guardians partnered with Legendary Pokemon to protect the Viore Region in times past. Obviously, something is going to happen that will call upon a new generation of Legendary Guardians. And yes, they will receive some special powers.
