Pokemon: Shadows of Orre

Welcome to Pokemon: Shadows of Orre!

Information about the Region

Shadows of Orre is an RP set in the Orre Region which is a region that at one point had barely any Wild Pokemon and was mostly covered in desert. Things have begun to change in the past five years after the Second Shadow Pokemon Crisis. Wild Pokemon are slowly becoming more common and previously barren desert areas are slowly becoming more verdant and capable of supporting various Pokemon types.

The previous individual Colosseum challenges have been replaced with the Orre Colosseum League a few years after The Second Shadow Pokemon Crisis. If you are able to defeat the three Colosseum trainers of each Colosseum, you gain the right to battle the Colosseum Battle-Master. Should you manage to defeat an individual Battle-master, you gain a substantial cash prize. If you are able to defeat the entire Colosseum League you still gain a substantial cash prize but you also are allowed to choose a single Pokemon from a choice of three.

You are also give the opportunity to battle the Colosseum League Battle-leader, a mysterious individual that is spoken of in hushed tones. Those who have met him are not allowed to speak of him. What type of Pokemon he uses, what type of man he is, it's all unknown.

Cipher is still active in Orre but to a much lesser degree and are much less of a threat. With much of it's wealth gone and many of it's members scattered to the wind after the Second Shadow Pokemon Crisis, it seems as though they are sticking around Orre simply out of spite.

Rules

Max of six Pokemon at a time. Obviously. Players are allowed to have Ten Pokemon total in the RP. This may change later on.
You are allowed to use the Pokemon storage system later on in the RP once they have more than six Pokemon. Players will have to come up with a password to access their individual Pokemon in the storage system.
Romance is allowed, keep it PG-13. If it starts getting naughty, fade to black.
If you want to battle another player, I'd recommend doing a collab post.
Have fun!

Pokemon Colosseum type RP based in the Orre Region

@Chev

I'm wondering for the sake of backstory I'm working on: Are we intended to get starters when the RP starts, or will we be okay to have a Pokemon already?

@AmpharosBoy

You are okay to have a Pokemon already.

Thanks for expressing interest :)

Looks like we have enough people, I'll try and get the OOC thread up tonight so those who want to join can put some characters up. I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with :)

If we can get one more person to join we should be good to go

@Yankee
Thanks for the tentative interest.

Going to have to keep it vague at the moment, but to put it simply, the remnants of Cipher are still hanging around Orre causing trouble but the people of Orre are about to deal with a much larger threat from a different region that even Cipher in their prime would have had trouble dealing with.

The characters will have their own motivations for traveling to the Orre Region but I do plan on adding some interesting changes to certain aspects of the region to try and attract people to the region. The Colosseum challenges will be changed quite a bit for example.

@AmpharosBoy
First of all, thanks for the interest :)
Colosseum and XD Gale of Darkness were two of my all time favorite Pokemon Games when they first came out and right now they still rank in the top 3 spots on my list.

Truth be told, I hadn't seen an Orre based RP in a while so I figured it was time to change that. Yes, we are allowing generations past Gen 3. :)

Pokemon Colosseum type RP based in the Orre Region

Hey Everyone,

So I'm thinking of starting up a Pokemon Rp based in the Orre Region a few years after the events of Pokemon Colosseum and XD Gale of Darkness. The majority of the characters will be new but there will be a few minor returning faces. The Orre region will have changed a bit with wild Pokemon becoming a bit more common than they were before. Certain locations will be new but the majority of them will be from Gale of Darkness. I'm thinking of having a maximum of three or four players for the RP.

Shadow Pokemon will still be present in the Rp and can be captured
Snag Machines will be a thing
Pyrite Town is still a town of roughnecks and scoundrels

If anyone is interested or has any questions, feel free to ask any questions or leave a post detailing interest.

Cancelled.

I'll try and come up with a different character.

Cancelled.

My Hider

Name here

- Tyros Vol

Species - Gen'Dai

Gender - Male

Age - 100

Occupation - Bounty Hunter

Apparel - Gun-metal grey/turquoise armor

Weapons - Heavily customized E-11 Blaster Rifle that has almost been completely rebuilt from scratch. The rebuilt rifle has experimental power cells that allow for a more rapid rate of fire and has a grenade launcher attached to the top. Tyros also possesses a heavily modified Mandalorian blaster pistol and two vibroknives for use in close quarters combat.

Equipment - Holo-communicator. Four spare regular power cells for his blaster file. Five spare grenades.

Skills -

Expert shot with his blaster rifle
Somewhat experienced with his vibroknives and can hold his own in hand to hand combat as long as the odds aren't overwhelming
Fairly good with the Mandalorian Blaster

Flaws -

Flawed Gen'dai Regeneration: Unlike most Gen'dai in the galaxy who can famously regenerate from nearly any injury, Tyros can't. He heals at slightly above the rate of most species in the galaxy due to experiments performed on him as a child by a scientist who could only be referred to as "twisted." If he loses a limb, he will most likely need a cybernetic replacement. If he takes a blaster shot to the arm, it will take the injury days to heal on it's own. A Bacta tank would most likely be the best option for him to take if he is injured.

Disfigured/cybernetic. Behind his armor, Tyros isn't a pleasant looking individual. One of his eyes had to be replaced with a cybernetic implant and he has many scars.

Personality - Tyros is a fairly cheerful individual despite what he went through. He has a somewhat sarcastic sense of humor and does believe in doing the right thing in most situations. When caught with his back to the wall, he has no issues in using his height and intimidating appearance to his advantage

Goals -
To see the end of the Galactic Empire and assist in it's downfall.
Earn enough credits to make it off Coruscant.
Find the man with the red cybernetic eyes.
Get his ship back
Locate and visit the Gen'dai homeworld.

Backstory - Tyros was born on a small colony world settled by a small group of Gen'dai who wanted to "get back to nature" as they so put it. The group was largely composed of artists, scholars and teachers who wanted simply to live in peace away from the hustle and bustle of the Gen'dai homeworld. The first fifteen years of Tyros's life were fairly uneventful but the young man had a bit of a wanderlust. At night he would stare up at the stars and wonder what secrets other worlds held.

At the age of sixteen, armored men came to the colony in the middle of the night and began capturing as many of the colonists as they could. unfortunately for Tyros he was one of those who was captured. Any of the colonists who resisted where ejected from the airlock in the cold vacuum of space. By the time they arrived at their destination a small moon in the Outer Rim, only seventeen of the colonists were still alive. A man red cybernetic eyes began experimenting on them day in and day out, seeking what made the species so long lived and what allowed them to regenerate from so many different injuries. For nearly fifty years, the number of surviving colonists dwindled until only Tyros was left alive.

The experiments continued for many months until the sadistic tormentor froze Tyros in Carbonite until he could figure out a way to extend his own lifespan and find a way to harness the regenerative powers of the species. Unfortunately for the scientist, his moon was chosen as the new base of operations by a group of smugglers who proceeded to descend on the moon and ended up driving him away. The scientist was able to leave with what research he had gathered over the years, but was forced to leave the hunk of Carbonite with Tyros still frozen inside behind.

The smugglers, after searching the lab for valuables, found the hunk of carbonite and were able to thaw it and found the scarred and battered Gen'dai inside. The leader of the smugglers, after hearing Tyros's story behind how he had ended up in his current situation agreed to give him transportation off the moon to a planet where he might be able to make a fresh start for himself. It took nearly ten years and various jobs but Tyros was able to eventually make a name for himself in the underworld and buy himself a small three man ship. His latest bounty brought him to Coruscant where he had to deal with a notorious Rodian murderer. After leaving a smoking hole in the Rodian's chest, he returned to the spaceport and found his ship missing. With very few options left, he began offering his services to various underworld clients in the hope of either finding his ship or buying another one.
