Pokemon RP Idea (Dark-ish)

@DJAtomikaCoincidence- I named my very first Snivy Edgar.

Pokemon RP Idea (Dark-ish)

(I'mma finish this later.)
Appearance:

Name: Hotaka Yamada
Age: 17
Personality:
Hotaka is a somewhat rigid individual, who sees battles as something that should be precise and exact. As such, he trains his Pokemon with precision in mind. He may come off as cold or uncaring to others, but his convictions come from a deep place in his heart. There are times when it seems he is ignoring people, but it's unclear if he's simply lost in thought, or thinks they're not worth his time, or just doesn't care.
Biography:
Hotaka Yamada was raised in Mahogany town, where he saw the harshness of Johto's mountain winters. After much exploration of his home, and other regions around it, he finally set out across the sea for greater adventure.
When he was young, he would wander off, much to the dismay of his father, Ishiro Yamada, and stare at the roiling turmoil that was the Lake of Rage. Over the years, the sight became familiar, then calming, but ultimately boring to the boy. Soon, his father took him on the weekly trip to Blackthorn City for supplies, and Hotaka became fascinated with the formations of the Ice Path and the high rising ridges that lead to the Indigo Plateau, which could only be seen in the failing light of late sunset because of the mists of Mount Silver.
One day, Hotaka heard a great loud sound come from Mount Silver, and started to climb it. The ascent was brutal, and almost cost the young boy his life. The last thing he remembers, before he was again in his home with his father at his side, is the sight of a phosphorescent seafoam green Pokemon with large wings.
Because of this incident, he is always wearing a coat and thick gloves when outside. He never removes his gloves. After what he views as a failure to climb Mount Silver, he became fixated on success, which carried to the training of the Noibat he met in a cave on his second attempt, which ended when an avalanche closed off the path ahead.

Pokemon RP Idea (Dark-ish)

I'm not going to overuse it, but I like the idea of Pokemon being adapted to different environments, like different colors for their environment, not just the shiny colorations being the only alteration. So, like, a brown Pikachu for more wooded areas or something, or a brown or grey Rattata in a city, or a Charmander with real newt colors.
And yes, she is, thank you. Sorta the reason I asked about the color, because I named her Ashecoat, so I sorta imagine her having a largely grey back, if not a dark spot so large only her fingers/claws are untouched.
@Fox of Spades And btw, which five regions are we using? There are six?
Thanks. Yeah. Kinda worried about her, but I have confidence she'll pull through. Oh, and how strict will you be about levels/evolutions? Like, you can, as the GM, limit how effective they'll be, but like, for example, the Pokemon that evolve once, but it's at like level 50, such as Mienshao, or Croagunk. Specifically, I love Noivern, but it evolves from Noibat at 48 I think. I don't expect at all to either have decent moves or have an easy time early game, but, like, narrative versus mechanic, where do you/we stand?

@Leoven

Oh thanks for the info xD, haha I'll have to look that up sometime, it sounds interesting. And I'm leaning towards starting a little after the events as well ^^ but yeah, I'm going to have the final cast vote on it when we get there.

@tobiax

Thanks for the luck, I'll need it xD. And best of luck to you too, Nuzlocke runs are already difficult on their own, sooo yeah, best wishes to you and your Pokemon pair! And I'm thinking Pokemon of the same species will look the same but there can be others that look different, kind of like how we sometimes get albino animals or cats with different colored eyes and etc.

@Fox of Spades

Thanks! I have Charmander(F)/Spearow(M) and Rattata(M)/Caterpie(F) as pairs. Solo'd the second Rival battle though, just to get free Pokeballs and get a more interesting first pair. So far my Charmander is stone cold. At two hp in the first battle with Green, ended his Squirtle with a crit scratch. It looked bad for a while in the second fight with Bubble coming in, but she pulled through.
But not sure about what you said in reference to the appearances. Can they be different or not?

Pokemon RP Idea (Dark-ish)

@Fox of Spades@tobiax Wedlockes are where your Pokemon need to have a "partner", I think? I've never attempted one personally since it kind of confuses me. Good ol' Nuzlocke or Sololocke is enough for me.

Anyway, maybe start a little after the events? Amidst the confusion and the panic, yanno?

@Leoven

Yes, it is. So you basically have three teams of two instead of one team of six.

If I may, I'd suggest a bit before, only so the foreboding and foreshadowing can creep in. And there can be that eerie silhouette of an Absol for a split second over precarious places.

Pokemon RP Idea (Dark-ish)

@tobiax
A wedlocke? Is that something like a nuzlocke run xD? I just started a nuzlocke run of Leaf Green, haha. And sure ^^! Feel free to throw up a sheet for evaluation~

@Fox of Spades

Yes. It's a modified Nuzlocke created by Marriland. It's arguably harder than a standard Nuzlocke. Neat, good luck on that.
What are our parameters on Pokemon with non-standard appearances? Like different colors or adaptations for region for specific Pokemon, not necessarily Shiny Pokemon?

Pokemon RP Idea (Dark-ish)

@Fox of SpadesRoom for one more? Started a Wedlocke recently thanks to the 20th anniversary re-releases, so I'm game.
