Posted by: ChaosHatsune Aug 31 2012, 10:26 PM
Team Rocket as well as several other evil organizations have decided to create a much larger and more dangerous team known as Team Chaotic, in an attempt for a more successful chance of enslaving Pokémon for their own selfish desires.
Having sent out their best agents in search of the powerful Gods of the Pokémon world, the immortal legendaries. As an attempt to use the power they possessed had proved futile, as not even the strongest or bravest of souls have been able to capture or tame the immense power that these Pokémon possess. The legendary Pokémon were simply too powerful for such a feat to be successful, nonetheless, it was insanity to even to consider such an attempt could even be possible.
Despite the fact Team Chaotic continued forth with their plans, but every attempt ended the same—failure.
This only made those in charge of this newly formed organization try even harder to catch the legendaries. And one day the most intelligent of scientists had finally found a plan to create a more effective way to capture these Pokémon. Until now, all their agonizing years of research and failed experimentations; has their work finally come to an end. It was a device that will weaken the god-like Pokémon to the point where they will be virtually like any other Pokémon...
Mortal.
Trying out their new technology on several evolved Pokémon, they had noted that all Pokémon used in these tests had become a weaker versions of themselves. But rather than reverting to their previous evolutions like they had originally thought, each Pokémon had only became weaker and their powers greatly reduced. Although, oddly enough much of the more larger Pokémon shrank in size but despite that one side-effect they had remained the same in appearance.
Unfortunately, there were still several flaws and bugs that had yet to be fixed, but none of the leaders had paid much of attention towards the fact, having been effected over the years and as a result they had grown impatient and restless.
Not allowing the scientists to continue their research, they began their quest for the Hall of Origin, the home to the Legendary Pokémon Arceus.
It took months upon months until they finally found the place, and the humans used the strange machine without a moment’s hesitation. Making all the once powerful and feared legendaries weaker as the seconds passed by, large Pokémon such as Arceus had began to shrink in size.
The Pokémon gods (or goddesses) were losing their energy at such a rapid pace that they had nearly lost all of strength around the seventh minute. Arceus being the strongest out of them all had somehow managed to open a rift to an alternative dimension before it was too late, and in a blinding flash of light all Pokémon that were part of the legendary council was gone…
To a place where no human has roamed the land, a place where only Pokémon dominate the land…
Treasure Town.

This is meant to be a reboot of Legendary Collaspe, which you can find here. http://forums.gtsplus.net/index.php?showtopic=55592&st=0&p=1809566&#entry1809566

...wait, don't tell me that you thought all the Legendaries had to be boring did you?
Also, yes I made Arceus a stereotypical dad...don't judge me?
EDIT: Added 'Tina's profile, oh and I almost forgot my own rule... OTL
Legendary
Species of Pokémon: Arceus
Name: (None)
Gender: Male
Nickname: (None)
Attacks: Seismic Toss, Hyper Voice, Earth Power and Cosmic Power
Level: 34
Personailty/Bio: Arceus being the creator of all Pokémon alongside Mew, has taken the responsibility of being the father-like figure towards his creations. Even going far enough to tell every legendary except Mew, to call him by the name of ‘dad’ or ‘father’ much to the other legendaries’ chagrin.
Although, many of them could consider him as their biological parent, they just choose not to and many of the legendaries find it rather strange why he would even want to be considered a father and many of them would rather not use such a human term of endearment. Especially, when he has little knowledge on how to actually stop temper tantrums, break up fights or other things you'd expect a father to be capable off--you can bet that Arceus will be unable to accomplish it. And in his attempts? Well, he'll just end up embarrassing his 'children', unlike Mew.
Despite his somewhat poor parental skills, Arceus is actually quite intelligent and when it comes to making large and difficult decisions regarding his family, and you can always count on him to put his 'family' before himself. As you can tell, he truly loves his family so much that he would even go to such lengths to miss some of his own free time, to babysit some of the younger and more childish legendaries. Often overexerting himself in the process, which often leads him to disappear to god--no pun intended--knows where for several hours and even days ( depending on Arceus' exhaustion level).
Likes: All his ‘children’, especially the more younger legendaries, days without any duties or obligations, sports, watching TV ( don’t ask him how he obtained such an item) and basically everything that isn't considered “bad” for his kids.
Dislikes: Rigged sports, bad sitcoms, immoral teen pop sensations, ACTUALLY having to do any work…etc.
Additional information:
Generally, you can consider him to be the stereotypical, embarrassing father. Also, despite being seen as a father figure, the larger (or used to be large) and/ or mature Pokémon already know that none of his creations are actually blood related but may be considered as such.
Legendary
Species of Pokémon: Giratina
Name: (None)
Gender: Commonly considered female.
Nickname: 'Tina
Attacks: Shadow Sneak, Slash and AncientPower
Level: 20
Personailty/Bio:
At first glance many Pokémon are often imitated by her physical appearance, but that's probably due to her large body mass as well as the uncomfortable and ghost-like "aura" she seems to emits. Most people never attempt to lie in the face of the dragon type Pokémon, mostly due to her piercing red eyes that seem to look right through the very depths of your soul, and quite frankly you don’t even wanna try to mess with this dragon.
Giratina--or 'Tina --for short isn't considered the most adventurous type out of all the legendaries either. In fact, many of the other legendaries consider her rather boring, even saying that she doesn't seem to know the definition of fun at all (but they'll never tell her that--too many of them cherish their lives to do so). However, she isn't incapable of doing anything adventurous, actually it is far from that she just simply afraid of taking risks that may cause injury to herself and the people she cares for.
Not willing to admit this, the dragon/ghost legendary covers up all her weaknesses, by creating an impassive wall around herself; never daring once or even thinking to tell another about this. She's afraid that many of them will not approve of her methods because it has only caused her to move further away from her fellow legendaries. But if you ask her? She considers distancing herself an effective method to keep herself safe, so she'll never have to experience the awful loss of losing something or someone close to her (you may not know this, but she's a torrent of emotional discord underneath her emotional mask).
Likes: Reading, personal space, books, music, silence, Distortion World (it's is the only place she could really go without getting pestered by anyone) and strangely she's fairly interested in astrology. Sometimes, you may even find her stargazing in secluded places.
Dislikes: Being interrupted, awkward moments, romantic novels and over-used clichés.

Excuse me good sir but I would like to ask for permission to reserve the Eon Duo as my characters. I plan to have them in a a brother/sister combination.
I attach an RP sample from my latest thread that I'm a part of, "Johto Adventure", a story set in thh late 19th century in Johto (1874 I think). My character is a researcher and trainer researching what is currently unknown about Pokemon.
My RP sample (click to showhide)
A small Brown fox-like Pokemon ran through the forest, frolicking in a pile of dead leaves. Suddenly it's ears pricked up as it heards its masters call and soon raced back to the direction of the voice, coming to sit at his master's feet.
"Good boy Rush" FLint said, bending down to pet the Eevee. Sitting down next to him, brushing his bangs out of his eyes, Flint reached for one of the leather pouches on his belt. Pulling out a handful of stones, he set them on the ground in a line.
"OKay Rush, I want you to look at these stones and tell which ones you like, but don't touch them, not yet anyway, one thing I don't need right now is you evolving on me." Flint pulled out his notebook and a pencil and looked on expectantly. Rush looked over at the 5 stones in front of him and studied them all closely. his attention was drawn to three of them in paticular, the yellow, blue and green stones seemed to entice him more then the other 2, a dark almost black stone, and a light blue stone. He looked up and barked at Flint indicating these three stones. Flint nodded and opened his smal notebook to a marked page.
On the two pages he had drawn a series of sketches and diagrams of the different stones he had collected, he had named them according to their properties and attributes, and according to his predictions. He began to write again by each of the five stones;
Fire Stone: Bright yellow with a Flame imprint, warm to the touch, effective around Fire Types, evidence supports theory of Flareon Evolution.
Water Stone: Dark blue with specks of lighter blue, cold to the touch, effective around Water Pokemon, evidence supports theory of Vaporeon evolution.
Thunder Stone: dark green with lightning bolt insignia, slight tingle at the touch, effective around Electric Pokemon, evidence supports Jolteon evolution.
Dusk Stone: Dark Purple, almost black, heavy and dark to the touch, effects unknown, evidence does not support Umbreon evolution.
Dawn Stone: Light blue, light to the touch, effects unknown, evidence does not support Espeon evolution.
Flint sighed, this was a big step forward in his research, but also a step back. A few years ago, when he was working at the University of Celadon City with his mother, a group Pokemon had been brought in from a newly discovered area. While all different types they all seemingly evolved from Eevee. This puzzled many scientists and they quickly leaped into research on the subject. The explorers who discovered the area had also discovered a large amount of these stones, so they quickly decided to lean into this as a theory. Shortly before he left the University, Flint had been asked personally by his mother to carry on this research and had been given Rush and one of each stone in order to test it.
So far it seemed by Rush's reaction that while three of the stones did indeed induce evolution, it seemed that both the Dark and Psychic type of Evolution couldn't be reached as easily. Flint had often wondered if there was a differwent method or if the stones he had been given were just faluty. It was true that Fire, Water and Electricity were more natural elements than Dark or Psychic, so maybe that's why it was more easily to achieve evolution through the stones. Shrugging he turned over to the next page.
This had sketches of Eevee and it's subsequent evolutions, linked by arrows in a chart, there were more notes alongside these sketches, which he added to as well:
Vaporeon: Water type, shows similarities to certain aquatic Pokemon, able to breathe underwater, enhanced health and vitality, evolves from Water Stone.
Flareon: Fire Type, similar appearance to a fox able to withstand and generate extreme heat, enhanced physical strength, evolves from Fire Stone.
Jolteon: Electric Type, appearance similar to a dog, can charge and store electrical power based on mood, enhanced Speed, evolves from Thunder Stone.
Espeon: Psychic Type, More cat-like than other evolutions, possesses telepathic and telekinetic abilities, enhanced mental strength prefers the morning, evolution unknown.
Umbreon: Dark Type, looks similar to both cats and foxes, possesses many dark abilities, enhanced mental endurance prefers the nighttime, evolution unknown
Other Evolutions: Possible but currently unknown.
Flint closed the book, and put it back in his pouch, picking the stones up as well. At least he had managed to make some progress, if not in all areas. Standing back up, he looked down the road towards where he had come from, he should probably be heading back to his lab in Cherrygrove City, but he had come all the way up to Route 31, so it would be a while back.
"Come on Rush, we better head back." He said resignedly, beginning the trek back. Rush barked happily and tagged along by his side. They had been walking for a few minutes when they noticed a boy run past holding a Rattata. Confused, FLint turned towards the road, for he had been walking alongside it, hiding from view in the trees. He noticed a girl from where the boy had ran, a young girl of about 17 or 18, with a sleek and quite rugged build, her hair tied into a ponytail. It seemed she had been raised in the countryside, as shown by the working trousers she wore underneath her high cut skirt and the Ponyta she was riding, quite rare in the wild and usually found on ranches. It seemed she was heading the opposite way to Violet City. Flint leaned against a trunk and watched as she passed. Rush came up behind him and peeked around his legs. Noticing the girl, Rush barked happily at meeting someone new and ran out to meet them.
"Rush no!" He whispered in earnest, not wanting to disturb them. He had read about how defensive Ponyta could be when alarmed, and he didn't need that on his hands. He hung back as Rush ran up, hoping the Eevee would lose interest and come back.

Species of Pokémon: Pikachu
Name: Len
Nickname: Len-Chuu
Age: 14
Rank: The Most Annoying Blonde in the WORLD
Gender: Male
Attacks: Thunderbolt, Tackle, Double Team
Personailty/Bio: Len is a cheeky, rude and annoying Pikachu and gets angry when provoked. He likes singing and dancing and has a sister called Rin.
Likes: Singing, dancing, bananas
Dislikes: Smug people who think they are the best when obviously they're not
Additional information: Bananas
RP EXAMPLE =D (click to showhide)
Len ran through the forest at top speed. 'Must..keep....running!' said the little Pikachu through gasps of breath. 'This....is not....my....day!' 1 hour past and Len was still running. He decided to stop for a bit, but wanted to keep running until he got back home. 'If I keep running, i'll throw up. But if I rest....i'll lead those....pokemon back home...' he thought. 'Who cares? I'll keep going.' So off Len went again. Dodging the trees and the wild pokemon, Len made it about 100 yards away from his base when suddenly...SLAM!!! The Pikachu had run into one of the pokemon that had been chasing him. It raised its claws, and with an almighty roar, the claws came crashing down on Len.....

Oh god, sorry if I sound fairly random.
Seriously, though is it alright if you be more careful with your grammar? Not asking to fix every typo, ever grammatical error, or something (considering I'm notorious when it comes to grammar) but is it alright if you try to capitalize your I's a lil' more often? Hopefully, I didn't come across as rude or unpleasant as that wasn't my intent.

However, please don't let this discourage you from posting or role-playing for that matter, after all, I wasn't (and I never will be) the best role-player in this world but practicing through writing and role-playing can really go a long way.

Seems like everybody's busy, might as well add Cresselia's profile now!
Species of Pokémon: Cresselia
Name: Cressa
Gender: Female (Obviously)
Nickname: None.
Attacks: Confusion, Safeguard and Double Team
Level: 16
Personality/Bio:
Cressa is one of the few legendaries that enjoys reading, often using huge and complicated words; usually she does this as an attempt to show off her intellect, causing some of the legendaries to believe that she had accidentally digested an entire dictionary a millennia ago.
Strangely nobody exactly knows and even Arceus doesn’t quite understand how she learned such advance vocabulary, especially considering that most of the words she uses are...rather uncommon among normal conversations and most of her selective language consists mainly of scientific terms. Nevertheless, despite her acquired wisdom of all things written, she can act rather immature when somebody points out her more obvious flaws, in fact, try taking a jab at her poor social skills and you’ll have raging Cressa screaming obscenities at you.
Oh, and she can be rather snooty too.
Likes: Books, confusing others in a conversation, as well as acting ‘superior’ compared to others (of course, this just attributes to her attempting to be more intellectual).
Dislikes: Losing her glasses, losing her books…and everything that a bookworm would normally dislike.
Additional information:
Cressa is known to wear glasses even when her eyesight is perfectly fine, though she still wears them since she considers wearing glasses as a sort of fashion sense. And it doesn’t help that she has come to the belief that wearing them will further ‘enhance’ her natural beauty, although, she has other reasons to wear them but none of which one could easily fathom, she says. Overall those glasses of hers serve no other purpose besides being purely aesthetic, she can also be seen carrying and reading a thick book brown book with symbols that only she can decipher. How she obtained such an object, no Pokémon knows.

OK ma'am I go with the Eon duo signups, sorry sbout that mistake, hard to tell gender with some names/avatars to be honest. NO worries tho, sorry again, but anyway here I go:
Species of Pokémon: Latios
Name: Latios
Gender: Male
Nickname: Tio
Attacks: Psywave, Dragonbreath, Safeguard
Level: 22
Personailty/Bio: When someone looks at Latios the phrase 'Strong silent type' comes to mind. He is quiet and withdrawn and doesn't like conflict, only battling when he has to. He has a kind of calming influence around people, and is often the peacekeeper when fights break out in the group. However, he has a tendency to bottle up his emotions. He has been prone to explode when pushed too far, and although he has never attacked anyone, he knows it could still happen. To prevent this he closes himself off from others and distances himself,.
The only time he ever really opens up is around his sister, Latias, or Tia. When the two are alone, he will talk freely, and sometimes even crack jokes. He is happier, livelier, and he always feels better about himself. He loves his sister dearly, and as such is fiercely protective of her. He tries to keep her out of trouble, but he has trouble keeping up with her sometimes.
As far as the other legendaries go, he doesn't them, and they don't bother him, and he's fine with that. He can usually be found flying around on his own, or relaxing somewhere. If he ever has to work with others, he'll do it respectfully and efficiently, but won't usually interact with them much unless he absolutely needs to. whne on his own, he listens to music, and has a liking for all types, often changing it to accompany his mood.
Likes: his sister, all types of music, listening to his music on his Radio/Stereo (If Arceus gets a TV, I assume he could get one of these for Latios?), flying
Dislikes: Conflict, working (unless he has to), overly loud and obnoxious people.
-And now for the sister-
Species of Pokémon: Latias
Name:LAtias
Gender: Female
Nickname: Tia
Attacks: Dragonbreath, Psywave, Safeguard
Level: 19
Personailty/Bio: While Latios is quiet and distant, Latias is very open and carefree. She is very curious about the world around her and is often exploring in her spare time. She is very talkative and loud, and always looking for stuff to do. She is a natural optimist and is very bubbly and bouncy. She can be naive however, and is prone to saying the wrong thing sometimes. Like her brother, she also dislikes fighting, often tryin to talk things through.
With the other legendaries she is very nice and sweet. Like Arceus, she does view them as a family, and as such, treats everyone with respect. She is very keen to be friends with everyone, even the legendaries who prefer to be by themselves, because she hates seeing them be left out of things. She can be rude sometimes, but this is only when she is very angry with someone, and she will apologize soon after.
The one person Tia loves to hang with more than anyone however is her brother Latios, or Tio. Although she is often annoyed by how overprotective he is of her, she knows he only cares for her. More than anything she wants to help him be more social with the group, and is often trying to get him involved.
Likes: her brother, parties, hanging out with friends
Dislikes: Having nothing to do, being alone, mean people
Additional information: SO basically I've made them into a brother/sister combo who get on eachother's nerves sometimes, but do stick together and help each other out. I guess they’re kinda lke sitcom siblings to go with your sitcom dad of Arceus.

Species of Pokémon: Dialga
Name: Dialga

It only makes it fair. Plus...who says Legendaries can't have fun with modern technology?
DarkPikachu732 You've been accepted! Although, I do have a question would Giratina and Dialga be kinda-like rivals to some extent? I mean they are in the same "team"...and if I remember correctly Dialga and Palkia tend to drag her in with their fights sometimes (or at least, that's what I got from watching the movies. I should probably try re-watching the movies again).

QUOTE(Myufi @ Jun 15 2012, 10:23 AM)
There was not a fraction of hesitation; as soon as the few ounces of weight set down onto the faded pink tile, a voluminous cloud of shimmering pink-and-purple dust spurted up afore the farm boy, billowing into his face in a heaving, choking mass, instantly making his lungs convulse in a severe coughing fit. In the startle of the event, the boy flinched back in instinctive movement, and with a single step, trod on an inconspicuous tile to his right, B5.
As the gas immediately begun its work on Rod's senses, an instantly near-total lack of balance did nothing to prepare his feet for B5 to crack horizontally across its surface, quickly collapsing on itself and surely sending the boy descending to the tiled floor. Falling further backward, he collapses on both the faintly green tile and its neighboring cracked tile at C5 and C4 respectively. His head spun, colors and movement crashing across his vision, a buzzing in his ears. A furious taste of metal pervaded across his tongue, and similarly all he could smell was metal, and the stench of rotten eggs. He skin felt tingly wherever it wasn't reacting oversensitively to the slightest touch or sense of friction. An obscure thought of removing all of his mildly painful clothing probably forms at some point, but unable to be achieved due to his lack of security over the movement of his own limbs. He writhes on the ground, elbows scraped from his fall, nose bleeding. The cracked tile, C4, doesn't seem to work, but it takes seconds for the adjacent painted tile to work its magic.
All at once darkness fell over every eye in the room. A moment later, the light flashes on and off again, twice, then stays dark. A moment later, again it flashes in the same manner. It does this again and again, and each time, the light gets slightly dimmer, and...redder? A low, resounding pulse of vibration - a booming or beating in rhythm - is soon perceived, clearly portraying a heartbeat, echoing alongside the light pulses. The flashes begin to illuminate a crimson haze that is creeping through the room's edges, clouding the walls and engulfing the doors and such, billowing inward and forcing those on the outskirts to move forward. Rod is soon engulfed where he lay, much to the dismay of onlookers. The beating speeds, the haze still creeping forward, the direction of their destination ever-more uncertain. Even the ropes above them quiver by the thunder rolling with every heartbeat, and soon the ropes begin falling.
And fall, they do.
The first to collapse to the ground is far from everybody, but it lands on painted tile F15, which instantly sets of a chorus of madly echoing screams, sounds of torture from all ages of either gender, grinding into the ears of those present. It lasts a mere half a second, abruptly cut off, but leaving everybody's ears ringing. More ropes fall, everywhere you look:
H6 and H7 by one rope, a swarm of insects - wasps - cloud over a risen tile, while one tile falls away and a geyser of sand spurts up, falling on its nearby tiles, but seemingly not setting them off.
Two ropes fall on Q16 and N14, both setting off clouds of shimmering dust of green and blue respective colors, highly similar to Rod's first trap, and equally dangerous; especially now that the haze creeps closer to the center, obscuring the presence of the dust clouds by its blood-color.
Indeed, the haze begins to fog the center of the room slightly, a sticky paste on the skin, and you soon notice how it paints over many tiles on the edges of the room, making it surely even more difficult to progress. But how could you progress at this point, with so many traps going off?
Near the very center of the tile grid, one rope falls on J10, but seemingly not setting it off.
A nearby tile, L11, also succumbs to a felled rope, and quickly does it transform into a rising platform, shooting upward short of a metre high; painful to one who might fall onto it as it rose.
The room has long darkened to a deep red, the beating of the light and thunder frantic and maddening, its permeating haze hiding a dozen fallen ropes on the outskirts of this terrible room. It seems as though this madness continues without end, but after a couple of final screaming choruses brought on by the rolling tremors pounding through the ground and air, everything cuts to black, and the light returns, steady and bright.
Have your eyes adjust soon; the chori of screams are gone, the thunder faded, everything is a fatal quiet; nothing stirs but your own rapidly pounding heart. The haze is completely disappeared, not a dust mote nor insect remains airborne. Ropes litter the floor, many traps set off, whether they are near-metre-high pillars or sand geysers, even a water geyser somewhere, according to the water underfoot and mud clouding the tiles around P5. Dead wasps are also spotted occasionally, and corpses of red-striped spiders dot the tiles alongside them. Everything is a mess, and the red paint that the haze introduced has not gone away; all of the three outermost tiles are impossible to decipher, and those closer in shall require inspection. Finally, none of the walls show signs of the doorway which the four came in through; instead, all four walls portray one door, each identical, each positioned at the center of their wall. All four are made of carved, ornate wood and painted royally with an oriental theme, including a wingless serpent holding a swirled orb in its maw - the only thing unique to each door, the pattern of the orb's swirl.
Now, not to forget Rod: remaining in his disoriented state, he was unable to allocate himself to the center of the room alongside his friends, who were forced to move to the middle of the room, where the haze did not swarm. Rod is unhurt, and it takes only a moment for the initial cloud's effect to wear off. Still, he is bewildered and unsure what has happened or what is happening. His clothes are drenched in the sticky red haze-paint, but somehow his face is clean, likely from hiding it in the fabric of his shirt as instinctual protection from the choking haze. Many ropes surround him in particular, oddly, and a couple of metre-pillars stand beside him at D3 and A5, but nothing else has seemed to have been set off. He'd only be quite lucky to navigate to the middle of the room without trodding on another tile.
That is all.
Hey I was wondering if DarkPikachu provided an example as well?
I was going to ask about Len but checked and realized she had provided one.
Also if you are curious, the roleplay this example came from is a twist of imagination, using D&D-style dungeonmastery to provide the setting for those trapped in this sort of nightmare, looking for somebody lost in the world of a demon-child.

Species of Pokémon:
Name: Aeroplane
Nickname: Aero
Age: 17
Rank: Bronze
Gender: Female
Attacks (3 attacks at most for now): Water Gun, Wing Attack, Mist
Level: 22
Personailty/Bio: Aero isn't the brightest Wingull around. She can be fooled by just about anything, provided it isn't too farfetched. She is also aware of the fact she isn't that intelligent, and relies on other Pokemon for help regarding anything intellectual. Her partner, Confuzzlement/Connie often does that bit for her. Aero wants to become smarter, but reading books bores her. She prefers if someone else reads books to her out loud. In order to make up for her lack of brains, she pursues other things in the hopes that she will be good at something. To her liking, the Wingull has recently found out she's fairly good at making mosaics out of the shiny odds and ends she collects.
She is also very tolerant and can get very clingy to her partner. Aero will even resort to stalking the Spiritomb.
Likes: Art (especially art that she created), Flying, Connie, pretty things, the colors blue and green, springtime, sand castles
Dislikes: Reading, not being a genius, vandalized art, not being near Connie 24/7, annoying TV commercials
Additional information (Optional):
Species of Pokémon: Spiritomb
Name: Confuzzlement
Nickname: Connie
Age: 17
Rank:Bronze
Gender: Female
Attacks (3 attacks at most for now): Pursuit, Ominous Wind, Hypnosis
Level: 25
Personailty/Bio: When Connie speaks, she seems to speak with many voices more or less in sync. If she is aggravated, the synchronization of her voices becomes more and more off. She will also start exhibiting less self control than she normally has. Generally, Connie is polite to everyone. After all, she can't accomplish things with being rude to other Pokemon. She has a small degree of caring for strangers, but would gladly take advantage of them. However, she has standards. She'll do anything to them but killing is not an option.
As for friends, Connie values them highly. She only has one actual one so far: Aeroplane. At first, Connie did not really intend to become friends. She wanted a tool to use. Later, her friendship with the Wingull slowly became genuine. Connie found that she enjoyed being around Aero, and teaching her stuff (including how to read). Aero has become a Morality Pet to her.
Likes: Pokewatching (Pokemon equivalent of peoplewatching), Aero, being better than others at something, nefarious plots, crime novels, villains in general
Dislikes: The idea anything would harm Aero, being outsmarted, foul language, confusing plots

RP Example (click to showhide)
Matze had her head resting on one arm. She was rather bored, and playing chess with herself did nothing. She wanted to teach all the minions how to play chess, but judging from the behaviors of a good many of them, the fairy decided it would be a complete waste of time. While she was teaching her rather small army of minions to play a game, her enemies would no doubt be out there killing innocents and coming to kill her off. But if she were to teach her captains...
Eh. Later. She pushed the black bishop diagonally to take the white rook, wary of the lurking knights she had not yet polished off. A Green, Nameroth gently tapped his mistress's wing. Matze whirled around, her sword slicing at the air where Nameroth had stood a second ago. She followed this by jumping out of her chair and landing softly in front of the Green minion. "What is it, Nameroth?"
He bowed. Matze had given each minion a name, but it was a honor for her to actually address a minion by their name. "Gracious One, the patrol of Greens and Reds you have sent out to raid the small village have returned. A few Reds, Zathna, Reikt, Wect, and Aller perished in the struggles that ensued, but we have killed or captured the entire village of 34 individuals."
Matze nodded. "Okay, so exactly how many killed and how many enjoying our hospitality and pastries? And was it done exactly like I told you and your charges to do it?"
"Milady, 17 villagers were killed. The rest are currently being held in the dungeon. As ordered, they have been treated well, have been unconscious throughout the whole journey here, and the Blues have wiped the necessary memories. Also," Nameroth grinned, exposing his ugly bestial teeth "We have cleaned up our mess as ordered. The houses still stand in good condition, no prints have been left, and it has been staged as if they merely left. The spoils are in the room down from the Brown Barrack Room 2. We have made sure we weren't followed."
"You have done a ver~y spectacular job, Captain. You and your fine friends." Matze waved her needle lazily in his direction, dismissing him. The fairy then flew out of the mess hall, anticipating 17 new minions in her ranks.

*raises hand* May I join?
Leader
Species of Pokémon: Lucario
Name: Anubis
Nickname: Anubis
Age: 22
Rank: Diamond
Gender: Male
Attacks: Metal Sound, Dark Pulse, Force Palm
Level: 26
Personailty/Bio: Anubis, despite his name, is not much like a death god. He is very civilized to the point of being much more curteous than other Pokémon. Even when angered will he keep himself under control, eager to remain rational and fair at all times. He supresses anger and sadness as much as he can, though sometimes, this poses difficult even for him.
On the outside, he looks very much like a normal Lucario. Fur and eyes are the same for hi as they are for every other Lucario as well, but the horn on his chest has been cut off almost half the way, leaving a flat where once, he had a spike. The ones on his hands have been changed to be two instead of one and shorter than normal. He is very keen on keeping his horns clean. Around his neck, a white and black checkered scarf is wrapped, the edges of which are slightly frayed.
Anubis has been on his rescue team for quite some time already, and he really likes his job. Since he and his partner, Neptun, make for quite the good team, they have advanced in rank fairly fast, though they still pale in comparison to some other teams. However, Anubis' main objective is exploring and rescuing Pokémon, not his rank while doing so.
Likes: He likes being of help to others and having control of his own emotions. When he has some free time, he enjoys sparring and spending time talking to Treasure Town's merchants. His reputation is important to him, but he is not above asking for help when he really needs it. He seldomly does anything purely for fun, if he does it will most likely be reading, and even then it is research most of the time.
Dislikes: Anubis despises being sick, because it hinders him in training. Rumors also displease him and he doesn't like talking bad about someone, both if it is a friend or a stranger. He also doesn't like loosing control of his emotions, which happens only rarely.
Additional information: He has a friend named Desdemona, an Absol living in the mountains. They don't meet often though.
Partner:
Species: Shiny Dewott
Name: Neptun
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Attacks: Toxic, Razor Shell, Air Slash
Personailty/Bio: Neptun is a determined little Dewott. He has nerves of steel to the point of not knowing when to back down or give up, which might lead to him exerting himself. This, combined with a slightly bad temper and the inability to keep his mouth shut, has more than once gotten him and Anubis into trouble. Though usually Anubis has been able to get them out of it again.
Since he does get into many fights, and not always is Anubis there to help him, he has quite a few scars marring his arms and head. For protection purposes, he wears a folded checkered black and white bandana around his forehead. Other than that, he only sometimes carried the exploration team bag, though Anubis sometimes reliefs him of it. He's a shiny Dewott, so his colors are different, but other thn that he's normal.
As troublesome as his headstrong and agressive behaviour is, as valuable it is: He would never leave a friend behind or give up on them. That's just not his style. Same applies to battle: He won't back down, even when Anubis has already given up. That being said, he also always takes the most direct route to get to something, missing out on treasure when left unattended and barging into Monster Rooms headfirst. He is best not left alone.
Likes: Neptun values his own freedom, though he lets Anubis control him a little, and swimming in the sea. Diving is great, too, and he loves communicating with other Pokémon and gathering new information, useful or not. Maths and foreign languages confuse him, but he's always giddy to learn a few new words. And showing them off, too. He enjoys winning and sparring with Anubis, and he also likes the other Pokémon around, even though some of them tend to annoy him.
Dislikes: He absolutely despises Pecha Berries. Seriously, he won't eat them except when on the brink of death. Or if he is forced to. Also, he doesn't like loosing and having to back down - not that he ever would. Runing away is just as bad.

Legendary
Species of Pokémon: Palkia
Name: Palkia
Gender: Female
Nickname: Astra
Attacks: Aqua Tail, Dragonbreath, Protect
Level: 22
Personailty/Bio: Astra is... Weird, for lack of a better word. She is a fairly peace-loving Pokémon and happy more often than not, but while she is headstrong in serious situations, she is a bit whiney in private. The only Pokémon she can't be nice to is Dialga - he just bugs her. Which is why she constantly tried to get Giratina to side with her against Dialga.
She likes exploring very much, finding places she hasn't seen before for example. However, since she could teleport wherever she wanted, she always has to control herself to explore normally and not just warp to where she wants to go. She normally likes humans, too - just the evil ones piss her off. And you don't want to cross her when she is pissed off.
Likes: Astra loves exploring and finding all kinds of gems and rare rocks. She always is sceptical of diamonds, though. She also likes good company, friendly sparring matches and peace. When she can enjoy some time in quiet ( be it alone or with friends), she enjoys that as well, especially when it is sunny and she can stay outside. Also, she loves swimming.
Dislikes: She dislikes people and Pokémon who try to kill her, and those who try to mess with her domain. She doesn't like Dialga either. And some other Pokémon at times, though that is always short-lived. Deserts, which dry her out, also aren't a favourite of hers.

RP Example (click to showhide)
With one last snapping sound, the last buckle of the in-line skates clicked into place, fastening it securely on her foot. Raziel held back a grin in anticipation of today's run, and instead an amused smile graced her features. This was going to be fun! As always.
A skateboarder rushed past her, and she blatantly ignored him along with his shout outs to his friends, who tagged along a few meters behind him. Raziel fallowed them with her eyes, she knew them well enough by now, and pushed back a stray bang that had fallen into her face on her right-hand side.
She leaned back from her crouching position (since it was getting uncomfortable and unnecessary) and sat up straight on the low wall she was sitting on. Surveying her surroundings, she shot a look at her watch. 12:05. So Fray still had some time to show up in time.
Above her, the clouds that usually accompanied an autumn day were drifting slowly, speeding up sometimes it seemed to Raziel when the blonde raised her gaze to the sky above. The dual-coloured eyes scanned the clouds for hidden forms and patterns. Jade and turquoise moved in unison when a strong gust deformed a cloud to make it look like a goat’s head.
To the outside, she chuckled a little, grinning on the inside. She felt almost connected to the sky when a strong wind, in reminiscence of the strong gust from just now, ruffled her hair, forcing her to smooth it down and rearrange the charcoal lower layer to actually be the lower layer. The thin braid on the right side of her head didn‘t help. Hopefully the wind wouldn’t hinder her whole skating. She was in no mood for searching her hip-bag for sunglasses.
‘Holy hell no. No searching. This is the last day of the holidays, today I’m not doing anything remotely stressfull!’
…
‘Except hanging out with Fray.’, she joked in her mind, smiling openly, then scolding herself mentally. The ore-ko might not have minded stings like that too much, she reacted more forcefully to comments about her height, but Raziel didn’t want to stress it.
She tightened her leather jacket around her slightly in impatience and re-fastened her boots on her hip-bag. She didn’t want to accidentally loose them and have to stop. Raziel sighed in slight annoyance and more impatience.
Another gaze to her watch told her it was now 12:10. It was about time for Fray to show up.
