Articuno's Winter Tournament
Forum-Index → Roleplay → Pokémon RP → Articuno's Winter TournamentThanks to the students/graduates of the Pokemon Battle School, Kori the Articuno has finally managed to complete the Kingdom of Shimo!
Actually, the Kingdom has been completed for a while now, 2 years, to be exact. and all the residents have pretty much settled down, so Kori made the announcement that the first Winter Tournament games would start this year! Best part, he's inviting guests from around the world to come as well. It is quite the honor to receive such an invitation. Of course, the students that helped make the kingdom are automatically on the guestlist, but there were till other Pokemon invited! Check the mail to see if YOU get to go to the fantastic first Annual Winter Tournament! Or perhaps you live here? Either way, I hope you are excited!

The Castle: An extravagant,
sparkling, brilliant palace of ice! The temperature is so low that
the ice is sustainable, and all the royalty as well as the guard
live there!
The Playpark: Definitely our most popular attraction! Anything you need to satisfy your desire for fun is here! Such as an ice rink to skate on, a field of snow for snowball fights and other open activities, nearby climbable hills for things such as sledding and skiing, as well as a playground of snow and ice, with an enormous ice slide. (We had to give it large walls to keep it safe, as well as cushioning on the bottom)
The Residence area: Exactly what you'd think. This is the place where the residents of the Kingdom of Shimo make their homes. The homes are made of snow bricks, and are insulated with other materials to keep them warm on inside. The higher class houses are larger and closer to the castle. Usually they belong to guard and their families or friends of the Royalty
The Market Area: Near the residential area, is the place where the markets flourish. Ship from all around the world, we receive fresh berries and other foods to sell here! Frozen treats are often sold here, as well as little trinkets or art. Anything you need, you'll find it here, just bring your coins!
The Stadium: The site of the Winter Tournament. A large stadium built for many activities, mostly snow related, such as battling, of course, sledding, a scavenger hunt, even a professional snowball fight! That's not all, wait until the games begin! Each day will have a new competition, and anyone can sign up, or grab a ticket and watch! All guests will receive a free ticket and a home for themselves to day in over the course of the event!

Kori: The ruler of Shimo, and the
Articuno that created it all. He is usually found surrounding
himself by Glaceon, Weavile, and Alolan Vulpix/Ninetales. He's
generally pretty elusive to common folk, but if you can get in
contact with his close friends, they'll usually help you get any
message to him, but when it comes to the Kingdom, the princess is
your girl
Princess Aurora: Shiny Alolan Ninetales, and the member of the royal family. Her tittle is 'princess' but her role is really more that of a Queen. She is one of the first to make decisions on behalf of the Kingdom, and though she has to verify with Kori first, she is definitely more widely called 'Queen' or 'The Queen of Shimo' as a result. She's a lot more open to interaction with her subjects, and spends a lot of time in the throne room, where she meets with her subjects
Prince Frost: Alolan Ninetales. frost has a lot less power than his mate, but doesn't bare a grudge at all! He is one of Kori's close friends, and is one of the main ways to get in contact with him. He's a cheerful and overall sweet guy, impossible not to love, and he had many friends around Shimo!
Spiri the Reshiram: Spiri the Reshiram has been tasked to help with the tournament this year as the planner and announcer of the tournament. You'll probably see a lot of her this season.
Flick the Mewtwo: A rather reserved Mewtwo. He doesn't really open himself to talk much, and was invited to join the castle by Spiri and Kori. He isn't mean in any way, but he isn't exactly friendly either. Turns out the real reason was that he didn't like to get attached...any way, he barely has any friends, and he himself is surprised he has any at all. He helps around the castle, but hardly talks to anyone.
Meka the Mew: Though she wasn't invited, she's a close friend of Spiri and came to visit this Tournament year. Kori gave her a ticket as well, due to being friends with her. Maybe he just wasn't able to get an invite? She's a carefree and generally joyful ball of energy. It takes quite a lot to piss her off, and if she doesn't like you, it's more likely she'll just ignore you.
Archion the Zekrom: Not exactly a guest, but Kori let him come due to being Spiri's 'brother'. The Zekrom has a generally goofy and playful personality, not matching his rather intimidating outer exterior at all. He's pretty approachable and friendly, but he does have a rash and competitive side, and he has a nasty habit of rushing into things, and can be a doofus.
Fyssi the Lugia: Fyssi is a motherly Lugia and an OPT parent. She has two children, Farore, her youngest, and Arrow, her oldest. While neither have developed enough to speak, one is starting to learn telepathy, and Fyssi, overwhelmed, wanted to go to the tournament to catch a break.
Jenny the Glaceon: Supervises the playground. She's extremely fun and rather young and motherly, always watching out for the visitors, particularly the children, and makes sure all the equipment is safe and in top condition.

You step off the transportation service, you have your ticket on you as well anything else you may have packed, and start heading toward the residential area that you'll be staying at over the course of the event.
Winter was a little startled at her sudden greeting, the warmth radiating from her catching him off guard while he was enjoying the snow. "Th-thank you..." He stammered quickly, licking his paw and running it over his now bristling fur.
Some distance before, a Lucario was slowly making his way up to them also. He was moving slowly then he would normally
It was then that there was a whole bunch of Squawking within earshot coming from behind the residential area. A Mother lugia was trying to calm her children down, but they were being quite rowdy.
Yung in the meanwhile, was fussing over Hiro
Spiri started leading Fyssi to a house of her own, which all of the Legends invited by Shimo would be staying (The NPCs). It was more like a mansion of course, that way all of them could fit comfortably. The Babies had wandered away from their mother, now sniffing around the neighborhood.
