The end has arrived.

In a fierce battle, all of the Legendary Pokemon fought each other for power and dominance over the lands. Their battle lasted many years and killed many innocent humans and Pokemon, and razed the lands.

As the battle seemed to reach its climax, Arceus descended from the Hall of Origin and passed its Judgement. In a flash of light the Legendary Pokemon disappeared. The Judgement destroyed buildings, leveled landscapes, and eliminated many. With life nearly over for both humans and Pokemon, the decision was made to travel to a single land and begin repopulating. That land was chosen to be Saffron City in Kanto, as Kanto was the region least destroyed.

Eventually people and Pokemon began fighting over the limited resources. These arguments escalated, and eventually people split apart and headed in every direction in an attempt to live on their own.

The world is in total anarchy. We are like moths drawn to a flame--we know that we must repopulate and survive, but we are afraid of being burned. We are afraid of the fires that await outside our comfortable homes.

We do not know what--or whom--lurks behind our backs...

OVERVIEW
This is a post-apocalyptic setting. The buildings of Kanto are all nearly gone save for a few makeshift ones. The ones still standing are unsafe for habitation. There are no leaders, gyms, elite four, or champions. The status of trainers no longer matters. Rookies and experts are forced to live together and coexist with their remaining Pokemon in the hopes of surviving. Resources are limited, and you cannot trust the person next to you. It's up to you and you alone to survive, yet at the same time, you know that you need others. The problem is, you can't take three steps without looking behind your back anymore. How will you adapt and survive?

RULES
1. All forum rules apply here.
2. One character per person.
3. No controlling of other characters beyond minor dialogue and movement in order to keep things moving.
3a. EXCEPTION: If someone gives you permission to control their character.
4. All Pokemon minus legendaries are available to characters. However, if you just started before the Judgement, you're not going to have Tyranitars and the like. Be realistic.
5. Proper spelling and grammar are nice. Make your posts readable!
6. Because this is a post-apocalyptic world, some of the pathways in Kanto have been altered. It's now much harder to travel to some places, easier for some, etc.
7. Please, if you are accepted, BE ACTIVE. If you foresee being away for a while have someone else RP for you, if possible. I'm hoping I can create ONE RP that doesn't die.

PROFILE TEMPLATE

A FEW NOTES
1. Appearance and personality do not have to be elaborate, as long as there is enough there in order to give us a strong image of what this person looks and acts like.
2. History should include where the character is residing at the beginning of the RP. Include things like how they got there and what they intend to do there.
3. Because the institutions are destroyed, Pokemon storage no longer exists--the person's party are the only Pokemon they have left. They may end up running into old partners along the way. Who knows?
4. Pokemon are allowed to have unlimited moves as long as they can learn them in some way. However, take note of the Pokemon's relative strength. A rookie trainer with a fairly weak Charmander isn't going to be using Flamethrower for a while.

Roxxy Mauden
