[OOC] Pokemon Academy

[Oz]

Welcome, to the prestigious Lumi Academy! Situated on one of the islands outside of Hoenn, Lumi is a natural paradise, and is the perfect place for learning! Alongside learning the art of competitive pokemon battling, trainers can enroll to take courses for breeding, and becoming contest coordinators! Our Pokepark Facility is the largest facility in the world for the purpose of keeping wild pokemon in multiple habitats. This is where trainers can catch pokemon! Also, there are four school teams you can join! These teams often partake in competitions, and can earn points over the course of the year!

Well, what are you waiting for? Come join the academy!



This is a slice-of-life, academy-styled Pokemon roleplay. It's meant to be rather lax, and to focus on relationships between characters and such.

Rules

Only one shiny per person. Even if you have multiple characters, only one may have one shiny.

Older trainers may have full, multiple teams, while younger trainers should probably have less Pokemon.

@Spoo
@Rune_Alchemist
@onenote

All three of you expressed interest in this idea! I'm happy to say it's up!

[Rune_Alchemist]

Cool, cool!~

I'll have something up soon~

[Oz]

@Rune_Alchemist
Can't wait to see it! ^^

[onenote]

Can we get more info about the school teams?

[Oz]

@onenote
School teams don't really have to do with personality or anything. There isn't much to know about them other then the fact that they're teams competing against each other.

[c3p-0h]

Interested! I might have one or two characters up later

[Spoo]

Excellent. Working as we speak.

[Oz]

[@c3p-oh]
Awesome!!

@Spoo
Great!! Can't wait! ^^

[Rune_Alchemist]

Well my first character is done!~

Just need to get to work on my second one after I finish some work and I'll have both of them up~

[Bai Suzhen]

What's the ruling on supernatural stuff, like human psychics? They've always been one of those things that existed, but was never really spoken about in the games.

@Bai Suzhen

I should probably ask what's the ruling with ghost stuff too, now that I think about it, since my second trainer is gonna be a somewhat creepy ghost trainer xP

Like, if she said she saw a ghost or something hanging around could she have legit saw one, or would she be talkin' crazy talk? Sort of like a medium I suppose that can communicate with spirits.

@Bai Suzhen

For now, I think I'm going to exclude psychics and humans having supernatural powers for simplicity's sake.

Abigail

Name:
Abigail Blanchett

Age:
17

Gender:
Female

School Team:
Terra

Abigail

Physical Appearance:
Abigail would be considered to be quite tall for a young woman, standing at roughly at 5'8", she stands just as tall as most grown men do and uses that to her advantage. Not many people can easily intimidate her because of it. She has a slender build, but its easy to tell she is quite fit. While she may not be the strongest, she makes a point to keep her fitness in mostly top shape. In the early hours of the morning, most can find her doing her usual morning routine of jogging and other physical exercises. She has beautifully pale skin, and is free from any scars, tattoos, markings, or other blemishes. She takes pride in being the best at everything, and that includes physical abilities.

In terms of attractiveness, she's fairly average. She doesn't care much for someones or her, physical appearance - the only thing she values is someones skill. She has bright green eyes, framed by thin eyebrows and lush eyelashes. Usually her face has a small number of emotions on it. Her usual bored expression, a smug antagonistic smirk, a condescending laugh, or otherwise a general not-so-friendly look. She has dyed her hair purple (her favorite color. Don't dis her hair, she loves her hair) that is usually tied back in a ponytail.

Casual Clothing:
In terms of casual clothing, she's a fan of the simple and functional and could care less what those fashionistas from her home of Kalos wear. Usually, she'll wear an unprofessional looking silver t-shirt with black sleeves and a purple design on it. She wears black pants usually, and finger-less gloves. As for shoes, she wears durable easy to move in boots.

Uniform:
Her uniform doesn't change all that drastically from her casual attire, considering they're her favorite colors and she'd wear them anyways. She wears a black T-shirt with the same pattern as her casual one, with the same purple stripes. She wears black pants and comfortable tennis shoes with them. She wears a silver belt around her waist, and the schools emblem is sewn into the front of the shirt, located on the right breast.

Backstory:
Abigail hails from Kalos. Her mother was a rather well known fashion designer and she grew up rather wealthy. That did not mean though, that she had it easy growing up. Sometime after she turned six, her parents had a bit of a falling out. She is still unsure over what exactly, but eventually it led to them getting split up - though rather amicably and they still remain friends to this day.

Her father Stephan, an retired police officer, took her to live with him in the city of Olivine in Johto. Her father was a rather strict man, though not uncaring or abusive - quite the opposite, he adored his daughter but knew enough to not spoil her. So he made sure she did well in the studies and that she got into the habit of making sure her physical and mental abilities were top-notch and kept a healthy enough diet.

When she was ten, her father traveled to New Bark and got her a pokemon - a Nidoran which she still has to this day. The two became fast friends, and both trained together daily. Over time, she managed to catch a team of pokemon in Johto. Still, she is far, far, from the best and before she goes off challenging the gyms and the league, she believes she needs a lot more practice against others and other strong trainers.

So she enrolled in Lumi Academy in Hoenn, and plans to graduate at the top of her class.

in everything.

Because that can't possibly end in disaster.

Pokemon:
Abigail doesn't really collect many pokemon, and prefers sticking to the ones she knows and trusts the best - especially Tyrian, he was the first pokemon she ever owned and the two are impossibly close even if he's a bit of an air head at times.

Nidoking - Tyrian - Male

Skarmory - Thistle - Female

Gliscor - Flit - Female

Scizor - Garnet - Female

Steelix - Argent - Male

Flygon - Chartreuse - Female

Other:
Personality: Stubborn, not so friendly and a bit of a jerk, she doesn't entirely play well with others. That said, she's not a complete scumbag. She simply values people by how good their battling skills are, and doesn't pay much attention to those who aren't trainers. She'll never shy away from a challenge, even those that look like they'll be in the other persons favor.

Lynnette Baines

Name:
Lynnette Baines

Age:
16

Gender:
Female

School Team:
Ventus

Physical Appearance:
Most wouldn't really consider her physically impressive at all, standing no more than 5'3". Her slender, small build doesn't help her at all either. In fact, most tend to avoid her altogether consider her rather...unique personality. She has pale skin that obviously doesn't seem to get enough sunlight. Lyn has darkly colored amber eyes framed by thick eyelashes and thin eyebrows. She has somewhat messy dark hair that she doesn't bother to comb, style, or mess with in any fashion and usually just lets it naturally do what it will. The only thing she does do with it is wash it about once a week and make sure it stays out of her face which almost is always contorted into some sort of odd cheshire grin.

Other than that, the small girl is rather unassuming, or would be if it wasn't for her odd behaviors. Like her tendency to waltz everywhere when she can manage it.

Casual Clothing:
Normally she wears a simple black one-piece dress with an intricate red design on the front of it. She wears long black stockings on her legs, and on her feet she wears simple black and red shoes. Her fingernails are a bit long, and she seems to be a bit on the sharp side. She wears a black bracelet on one wrist she doesn't seem to ever take off.

Uniform:
As for the uniform she could ultimately care less for....

She wears a black one-piece dress similar to her casual attire. Unlike her casual dress, this one has long sleeves that seem just a tad bit too long for the girl, often obscuring her hands under them. The dress has an intricate purple pattern sewn onto it, and it hangs to just above her knees. On her legs she wears her same black stockings and shoes. The dress has silver buttons and accents inlaid on it. The symbol of the school is sewn haphazardly onto the back of it, showing very little care at all.

Backstory:
Lynette hails from the city of Castelia, Unova. She had a comfortable life growing up in a middle class family. She had an interesting life growing up, her parents liked traveling a lot and they always took them with her on their little excursions even at a young age. By the time she was 14, she had already been to every region known to man. Indeed, she was quite the well traveled child and can speak a variety of different languages, albeit with some difficulty, because of it.

However, when she was 15, her parents decided to leave her at home during one of their trips. She never figured out why exactly, but she felt left out so she figured she'd go have a little adventure her self. Sneaking out of the house late one night, she soon found herself in the Desert Resort, more specifically - Relic Castle.

She was just going to go in for a quick look, nothing serious or too exploratory. Unfortunately, she got caught in one of the quick sand traps and ended up lost on the lower floors of the castle. It was there, she met her first pokemon a Cofagrigus she would later name Chuckles. She doesn't really talk about what happened really, but when her parents came back from their trip a few days later they found her completely healthy, almost like nothing was the matter at all.

After that her personality subtly changed ever so slightly - she had never really been sociable, and always on the shy side but this?...well, this was a bit different. Soon she started taking in other ghost pokemon as well, much to her parents chagrin. A bit concerned about what to do with her, they sent her to the academy in hopes of trying to get her to make some actual human friends instead of her ghost pokemon.

Pokemon:
Lynette is a relatively new trainer, and doesn't have that many she can use to battle - though she doesn't entirely like battling anyways.

Cofagrigus - Chuckles - Male

Lampent - Wisp - Female

Banette - Dolly - Female

Dusknoir - Skully - Male

Other: (Anything else.)

And there they are!

Wasn't sure how strong/many pokemon we could have...so I hope both of them are acceptable~
I can always change something, if not~

Kaede

Name: Kaede Max

Age: 17

Gender: Female

School Team: Ventus

Physical Appearance:


Casual Clothing: Typically Kaede wears comfortable, functional clothing. Hoodies and running shorts, or cargo pants with a lot of pockets. Sometimes, though, when she feels like it, she'll wear a skirt and blazer with a white and red color scheme.

Uniform: To school, Kaede wears a slightly oversized dark purple hoodie with the school logo emblazoned on the back, coupled with black cargo pants.

Backstory: Kaede was born far away from Hoenn, all the way in Snowpoint city in Sinnoh. She was generally alone throughout her life, her only companions being her eevee twins, Fi and Is. Like many pokemon trainers, when she got old enough she set off on a trip around Sinnoh, learning what she could about the various pokemon along the way. She only managed to win two badges, but along the way Fi and Is evolved into Flareon and Glaceon, cementing her future team to fire and ice types in her mind.

Eventually, Kaede decided she needed a break from Sinnoh, and the Lumi Academy gave her the perfect excuse to do that. She packed her bags and said goodbye to her mother, then headed straight to Canalave City, where her ship awaited.

Pokemon:
Is - Glacion - Female
Fi - Flareon - Female
