Sorry to all my partners! Busy day means few replies. >_< I'm working on 'em, I swear!

I'm always surprised by how much work it takes to write RP, but it's always worth the effort!

Name: Kurtis Marshall (usually goes by Marshall)
Age: 37
Home Region/Town: Lumiose City, Kalos
Bio: Born and raised in ever-lively Lumiose City, Kurtis grew up surrounded by Pokemon and trainers alike. Even from a young age, he was hopelessly taken in by the wonders of the Pokemon world, and when the time finally came for him to set off on his journey, it took barely a moment for him to bolt out the door! Along with his very first partner, a somewhat mischievous Chimchar (his father brought the newly hatched Chimchar home after a business trip to Sinnoh), Kurtis began a long and challenge-filled adventure to become Champion of the League.
Naturally, this was far easier said than done. In every region, he found naught but worthy and powerful trainers, young and old alike. Just as soon as he thought he'd figured it all out, something new and exciting always seemed to find him. It only served to further enflame his passions, of course! Although he never succeeded at becoming a champion, despite traveling to every region at least once in his life, he did become a great trainer in his own right.
Although he was still a city boy at heart, Kurtis's arrival in Alola felt surprisingly like a homecoming to him. The natural beauty and fascinating new Pokemon excited his drive for adventure all over again, and even as capable a trainer as he'd become, the Captains and their trials brought him all new challenges and forced him to find solutions he'd never before considered in a battle. As he himself once said, "I always enter a region thinking I know what I'm doing, and every single one of them has managed to prove me wrong."
After several years enjoying the Alolan life, however, he began to feel restless. He'd considered departing to find a new region, but was approached by Professor Kukui with a job offer! The Trainer's School was looking to expand; given the recent Aether Foundation and Ultra Beasts crises, the school wanted to make sure its students were more than capable of protecting themselves and leading their Pokemon well. Kurtis quickly accepted, and after managing to settle in, he began the ever-intriguing task of turning the old school into a grand and proper Academy. Even today, he works hard to make his new school the best in the world, joyful beyond words to see new trainers emerge before him!
Despite his professional appearance and speeches while on the job, Kurtis is actually a very lax and easygoing guy. He also suffers from a terrible case of bad luck: his feet seem to find every snag and loose cord beneath him, often landing him right on his face. He never lets it get him down, though. Even so, in battle, his experience and quick-thinking should never be underestimated. His fire for battle has never gone out, and woe to those who underestimate his team!
Team:
Infernape
-Mach Punch
-Close Combat
-Flare Blitz
-Poison Jab
Kurtis's first and most loyal partner, Infernape takes very much after his trainer. He's often seen lounging about across the academy grounds, largely ignoring whatever doesn't interest him. That said, his temper is a fiery one, and as lazy as he is, making him mad is sure to result in a battle! Warning: has been known to steal cookies.
Gardevoir
-Moonblast
-Draining Kiss
-Psychic
-Light Screen
After hearing about Ralts and Gardevoir during his time in Hoenn, Kurtis spent hours trying to find one. After half a day without a single sighting, he sadly munched on his lunch and wondered if he was even in the right place. At that very moment, a quiet little Ralts poked her head out from the bushes, lured by the smell of food. A few shared berries and Pokepuffs later, Team Kurtis had a brand new member! Shy around strangers, but very open to friends.
Mightyena
-Crunch
-Ice Fang
-Sucker Punch
-Snarl
Another team member found in the Hoenn region, a very angry Poochyena suddenly leapt out of the brush and chased a startled Marshall through the woods! A poorly-timed slip saw him fall to the ground, and the Poochyena dove for his arm! ...Thankfully, the pup was young, and his fangs were less than fatal. A bop on the nose with a Pokeball saw the wild spirit tamed. Loyal and protective, even when he doesn't need to be. His secret weakness is belly rubs.
Gengar
-Shadow Ball
-Sucker Punch
-Toxic
-Venoshock
A lucky trade with an old friend from Kanto, Kurtis received a Haunter that quickly evolved. Unfamiliar with his new trainer, however, Gengar was rather stubborn and disobedient at first. It took time - and still is, as some would argue - but the two of them have battled many an opponent, and if nothing else, Gengar is at least willing to humor his trainer. Most of the time. Known for being surprisingly vain.
Eevee
-Return
-Swift
-Double Team
-Last Resort
A lucky find during his second year in Alola, Kurtis spent days thinking over how he might evolve his Eevee. After getting no closer to a final answer - and with Eevee's adorable face - he finally decided not to evolve Eevee at all. Eevee herself seems perfectly okay with this and remains as playful as ever. While still very young and not as powerful as the rest of his team, Eevee still manages to hold her own. Most likely to be found rolling in mud for the fun of it.
Milotic
-Water Pulse
-Aqua Ring
-Refresh
-Attract
While fishing one day, Kurtis caught a Feebas. A nearby fisherman burst out laughing and suggested Kurtis "throw the useless thing back". Naturally, Kurtis immediately took that as a challenge. Several months of hard work and Pokeblock later, Milotic emerged in a glorious evolution. She's very fond of Kurtis for believing in her and works very hard to show her gratitude in battle. Surprisingly jealous.

OOC is up, my dudes!
Hello and welcome to Alola's very own Pokemon Academy! Located just outside the beautiful Hau'oli City, this academy features some of the finest facilities and faculty to meet every blooming young trainer's educational needs! Our new state-of-the-art classrooms and battlefields ensure that trainers are equipped with all the knowledge they could ever need before setting off on their grand Pokemon adventures! Students are guaranteed a learning experience that's both fun and challenging, pushing them to their limits and showing them just how far they and their teams can really go!
With our excellent location by both the city and the beach, those students who find themselves with free time will surely have a myriad of ways to fill it, with plenty of exercise and excitement to bond with their fellow classmates. Every student is even granted a unique Trainer's Passport upon enrollment, allowing them to take the ferry to Alola's various islands. Be assured, dear parents! We will never let your children wander into dangerous territory. Use of the ferry's various destinations is directly tied to a student's passport, and we teachers will ensure that no one is able to go somewhere they would not be ready to face. We also have close ties to the islands' authorities and the Aether Foundation, so no matter where your children go, someone is always there to watch over them!
Our faculty, though small in number, is truly unparalleled. Each one is hand-selected by the Headmaster himself, proven by years of experience and expertise in their chosen fields. You can be sure that your child will be in the best of hands. And trainers! You can also rest assured, knowing that you'll be taught by no less than the best! If you've the will to succeed, we'll make certain you do!
I look very forward to seeing all of you, and you can bet I'll be looking to ignite the sparks of greatness I know lay waiting within you. See you soon, and though it may be premature, welcome to Alola!
Sincerely,
Kurtis Marshall
Headmaster of Alola Academy
Welcome to Alola! We'll be playing through a fantastic year of the academy, learning all there is to learn about Pokemon! And don't think this'll be any cakewalk; you have to work to earn that grade in written AND practical exams! Make sure you train as hard as you study!
For this, I'm looking for up to eight students and up to three professors. Any more than that'll just get crowded, and... well, honestly, I'm rusty.
But hey! Beyond that, we can have a good time!
Students
Each student can have up to three Pokemon for their team. Bear in mind that both your character and Pokemon should be NEW AND INEXPERIENCED, meaning we will NOT be having any ex-Champions or "look at me I caught three Mewtwos LULZ" types. Beyond that, your options are fully open to you!
Student Body:
Marcus Zutcher

Instructors
On the other hand, instructors are welcome to be more flexible with their teams and histories. Former gym leader? Retired Elite Four? Maybe you tried for a few championships? Very open possibilities! However, it should be remembered that no matter who you are, you are not here to win and dominate. Rather, you are here to teach and help budding young trainers blossom! To that end, every instructor will be required to teach a particular subject. Feel free to be creative with that!

Sweet! I'll get the OOC up shortly!
I forgot I had this account. >.>; But I came back because I have a terrible RP itch, and I want to resolve it. So, without further ado...
First, the ever-important About Me section! I'm 24 years old and have a very real passion for writing good stories with people! I've been roleplaying for about 15 years, and thankfully, I've gotten better since then. I started in MMOs and gradually got into tabletops and online roleplays! I'm a huge dork and have a lot of things I really enjoy, especially in anime and video games. You'll see a list later! Otherwise, I'm a pretty basic guy and do a little bit of a lot.
A few notes about my play style:
-First, I don't have a writing minimum. I hate fluff and filler, so if you can say all you need to say in just one line, then I say go for it! My only rule is that whatever you post has to advance the story and give me something to work with/respond to. Length is not required!
-I can and will play both male and female characters!
-I never require that one character be a certain gender, so the ideas I have are all interchangeable.
-That said, I won't do MxM romantically.
-If you want to do something 18+, let me know! I won't do it by default, but I'm open to the option.
Now, for the stuff you came here for!
Current Status: Closed! Thank you all for your interest!
And here's a few pairings I'd be happy to try out!
And that's it! Hope to hear from some interested people soon!
