Roleplay

It was an ordinary dawn on the Cosmos Region. Ordinary humans were going about their ordinary lives. Whether that be training their Pokémon, enjoying themselves, destroying the environment, or whatever it is that humans do. Little did they know the trouble bubbling up from underneath. Trouble that was about to be a huge problem.

Team Celestial. A new criminal organization that has suddenly sprung up out of nowhere, or so it seems. Truth is, the leaders of Team Celestial have been planning this for years. All that Paige, their crime boss leader, had ever wanted from a young age was power, more specifically, power over an entire region. Tyrannical power. There were several ways she could achieve this. Each option would be grueling and exhausting.

Recently, there had been a change in the region's champion. The old champion, the undefeated Sorel, had since aged passed his prime, and was quite happy to finally have a young, bright individual to take his place.

But something about this new champion was...unusual. He was young, about 17. Movie star face, pale skin, blonde hair. He seemed kind enough, but he was rather quiet, preferring to push all the news reporters and new fans away as he left the stadium. His face was dull and grey, as if he hadn't slept in a while, and he refused to give anyone his name. He hasn't been seen since the day he became champion. Though, not that it matters just yet, it's only been a week...

But how much may happen in a week...?



Human matters have never really been of a concern to you, though. You're but a wild Pokémon. You've never known what it's like to be captured by a 'trainer' or live in a human environment or society. Your culture revolves around you and the Pokémon that surround you. Legendary Pokémon are seen as and treated like gods. Though you may not have the dexterity to create elaborate statues like humans do, it is not uncommon to make offerings to them, and to pray to them. In return, the gods reward those who remain faithful with good luck and knowledge. It is a wild Pokémon's innate ability to sense and care for their legendary guardians, and thus...the latest events worry you.

It was but a day ago you noticed that you couldn't feel the presence of your legendaries nearby. As well as the increase of the amount of humans in strange uniforms and masks around your home. You, as a wild Pokémon, have no idea what to do, and your family starts to just tell you to avoid them.

For a few days, it becomes a normal routine. Just stay away from the humans as you always do. Your live returns to normalcy, apart from the anxiety of not feeling the legendaries nearby.

What is happening? Have the legendaries abandoned you? They couldn't, you and the other Pokémon assure yourself. Everything is normal.

That is, until the Pokémon around you start to disappear as well


Suddenly, you notice that not everyone is able to avoid the encroaching humans. They start taking Pokémon back...doing who knows what with them? You start to freak out. Your community is disappearing around you! Suddenly, a voice offers. You find yourself teleported with some others to a clearing you haven't seen before, a field of flowers and a singular Mew. The Mew introduces themselves as Meka and explains that she is one of the few legendaries that managed to escape the humans. There are a few others as well, but they aren't here right now. None of them are sure what happened to the other legendaries, but they need your help to find them.

Suddenly you realize that your faith in legendaries is the only hope for the world. Humans can't save you now. Legendaries can't help you now. You and this ragtag team of Pokémon are the only thing standing between peace and total world domination by these....humans.




Plot summary

The cities and towns of the Cosmos region are being overrun by Team Celestial members. The evil organization are now oppressing the Cosmonian people, forcing them into submission. All other regions have been cut off for the most part, and people can't communicate long distance. Trainers now no longer have Pokémon. Their Pokémon have been transported to be used for Celestial's purposes. Team Celestial has also taken over all routes, allowing no one to escape. The only hope for the world is the wild Pokémon, who quite frankly have no idea what is going on. Also, the legendaries are missing. Wild guesses as to where they've gone.


Rules

Show hidden content
Do not join unless you plan to be active!

Do not bother signing up if you plan on posting one-liners. I will kick you immediately. In fact, I will not accept anyone without valid proof that you can make posts with substance on a consistent basis. (If I have roleplayed with you before, you don't need to provide me with this)

This is a semi-literate roleplay! I will only accept posts in paragraphs! This does not mean 1-2 lines. You'd better aim for 3 lines at a minimum! (Preferably 4+) This relates to my previous rule. If I have seen you post one liners, or just posts with a lack of substance frequently, I will not accept you! Lack of effort does not bode well with me. (exceptions will be made, of course, but lets try to stick to this rule)

To be sure you read the rules, please put your favorite cookie in the 'Other' section

Try not to spam the forum, please. I don't want the posts to end up coming out so fast that others can't keep up. Simply so we don't overwhelm those in other timezones. A part of the reason this is semi literate is so it doesn't go too fast. We aren't trying to make the most active forums, just to go at a reasonable pace, if that makes sense.

Ships are allowed, just don't go overly crazy with it.

Only certain people will be allowed to play as Mythicals! Meaning I have to trust you. If you have never RP'd with me before, don't bother, if you have, feel free to try and sign up as one, but that doesn't guarantee I'll accept you! I'm also limiting playable Legendaries to smaller ones like Shaymin, Hoopa, and Mew, so keep that in mind!

My Form

I...guess we're doing this now...

Username: BlackReshiram

Character Name: Breeze

Pokémon Species: Leafeon

Gender/Pronouns: Female

Personality: Breeze is quite the mysterious personality. She is quiet, which comes from her both being shy and an introvert. She is quite non confrontational, and prefers to stay out of conflict if possible, as one would expect from a leafeon. However, she has a bit of a stubborn side to her as well, and can be ruthless in battle when she needs to be. She changes up her moveset quite a lot, and despite preferring long ranged attacks, she particularly likes using her blade-like tail in combat as well

Moveset:
Sunny day | Synthesis | X-Scissor | Solar Beam

Ability:
Leaf Guard

PP group?:derp

Other: Breeze has little brown freckles on her face, as well as a hooked tail, which allows her to pick up things with it to an extent, as well as making it more powerful in combat.

Username: ^^

Character Name: Meka

Pokémon Species: Mew

Gender/Pronouns: She/Her

Personality: She's rather jumpy, and a prankster as well. She's like the annoying little sister who's too cute to stay mad at. It's pretty hard to piss her off, but if one were to manage to do so, however, she'd hold that grudge to their grave, one way or another. Meka has a deceitful tendency to convince unknowing individuals that she's cute and innocent, when in reality, she's quite the opposite. She's a rather chaotic personality with questionable morals at times, and while she can be sweet, she's actually a rather ancient Pokémon with a lot of...experience. We'll leave it at that.

Moveset:
Psychic | Transform | Recover | Aura Sphere

Other: Derp

Moveset: Swords Dance, Crush Claw, Rain Dance, Blizzard

Username: Perish-Song

Character Name: Banshee

Pokémon Species: Mismagius

Gender/Pronouns: Female, she/her

Personality: Banshee is quite emotional. Her mood shifts quite often, being happy one second and being angry the next. She likes to play pranks on her fellow Pokemon, for fun of course. She wants to see everyone smile, and cheer people up.

Banshee's biggest flaw is that she can never stay calm. If she's panicking over something, she will curl up into a ball in the corner and sing to herself for a long time.

Moveset: Perish song, magical leaf, Phantom force, nasty plot

PP group?: Yea sure

Other: When was the last time I ate a cookie? I'll go with chocolate chip.

I do private rps! Send me a PM if interested!

I...guess we're doing this now...

Username: ArtsyDude333

Character Name: Artemis

Pokémon Species: Fletchling (LVL 15)

Gender/Pronouns: He/Him

Personality: Artemis is cautious (Careful nature, +Sp.Def -Sp.Atk), but loyal to those he trusts. It may take a while to befriend him but if you do he would protect you with his life... if he wasn't just a Fletchling. Artemis never lies to his friends, and would only ever lie to avoid harm to himself or others. Artemis insists on living only off of Apicot , Coba , Kelpsy , Oran , Passho , Rawst , Rowap , and Yache Berries, turning his feathers into a deep purple . He says he has had an encounter with a Galarian Articuno , but hasn't met anyone who's believed him...

Moveset:
Quick Attack | Ember | Peck | Flail

Ability:
Big Pecks (becomes Flame Body upon evolution to Fletchinder)

PP group?: Yes

Other: Sources for Moves and Abilities found here and here. For his moves I used the Sword/Shield "Moves learnt by level up" section in Fletchling's page only. I'm really excited to be a part of this! X3 (I like the cookies with M&M's in them)

I guess we're doing this then!

Username:
Tsukoyomi

Character Name:
San

Pokémon Species:
Skitty

Gender/Pronouns:
Male
[He/Him]

Personality:
Above all else, San is fundamentally kind. While he may be over the top energetic and is more concerned with chasing his tail than whats going on with humans, San will never abandon someone in need of help. He might be mischievous, always looking to pester and lovingly bully any friends he makes, but he is a reliable pokemon to have on your side. Just make sure you cuddle him lots or he'll get pouty and clingy.

Moveset:
Fake Out | Sucker Punch | Assist | Thunder Wave

Ability:
Normalize

PP group?:
Let me innnnn LET ME INNNNNNN

Other:
San is functionally agnostic. Yes there are gods out there but does he care? Nah, he has much better things to worry about. Like chasing his tail

.... does Cookie Dough count?

Personality:
Reserved and a bit taciturn, Aeleus is quick to judge but also surprisingly open minded because of their psychic abilities. They can jump to conclusions and assumes a lot of things mostly to their own detriment, but do their best to take in everything they can. They are a steady and reliable ally to have on your side, always carrying out tasks as efficiently as possible, prioritizing efficiency over anything else. They dislike fighting and prefers to carry others away to safety but will fight if necessary.

I...guess we're doing this now...




Username: @Serendibite

Character Samples: [ x ] // [ x ] // [ x ]







Character Name: Luther.

Nicknames: [Luth (preferred) // Luthie (disliked)]




Pokémon Species: Glameow

Gender/Pronouns: Masc. He/Him, They/Them. (No preference.)




Personality: An optimistic, friendly presence who's always there, ready to support someone at a moment's notice... But truly, deep down, is nothing more than an insecure, manipulative mess. Luther has a great deal of self hatred for himself and the world around him- in fact, hate tends to drive his every action. Hatred for those who laugh and smile at his goofy antics. Hatred for his friendly, outgoing persona. The world itself, which had driven him to conceal who he is underneath a shallow veneer. While this seems to be all there is to him... there is in fact more. He holds a deep sense of honour within, especially for those whom hate him, and would die to protect them, even if he'd wish death upon them in a quieter moment. While this might seem a tad contradictory, then you must understand that deep down, he is by no mean's a bad person- and underneath the façade of a goofball, there is another façade, of one believing that he hates others.... when in fact, he might just love them too much.


Personality Type: ISFP (Fi-Se-Ni-Te)




Moveset: Scratch, Feint Attack, Charm, and Fury Swipes.

Ability Limber (The Pokemon cannot be paralyzed while having this ability.)








PP group?: Yes, please!

Other: I'm craving a double chocolate chip cookie right now. Probably isn't good for cats. Stop hissing at me Luther, and eat your poffins!

I guess we're doing this now...

Username:
Daiko

Character Name:
Maeshi [ May - She ]

Pokémon Species:
Banette

Gender/Pronouns:
Male, He/Him

Personality:
He has only come to existence because of a tragic past. Like most, if not all banette, he was once a doll who had been owned by a human, only to be thrown out and left to rot. This had left a bitter outlook on the human world and his once docile mind is now corrupted with malice and hate. This is only towads humans, though, as he is quite popular (in a good way, of course) with the pokemon he shares a home with. His hatred does sometimes get to him though, and he has outbursts of rage sometimes, but he never means any harm. He is very open about his hate for humans, as well as his past, and most of the pokemon he likes being around don't mind the aforementioned outbursts, unless he accidentally lays a curse on them, of course. He does have a habit of laying curses on others, but only as he sees fit. He enjoys playing pranks on others, and loves being around close friends, but he also spends most of his day keeping to himself in his small part of the forest. Being a banette, he can't exactly talk due to his mouth being permanently closed, so he can't really do much anyways. He tries his best though, and always manages to 'speak' his mind. Everything else is TBRPD because i'm lazy

Moveset:
Shadow Force | Knock Off | Curse | Will O' Wisp

Ability:
Insomnia

PP Group?:
sure

Other: hmm... i dunno, triple chocolate kinda lit
also, due to his ability, he can't sleep, but does he really need to considering he's just a ghost? i dunno

I guess I'll try and sign up for a mythical character.

I...guess we're doing this now...

Username: Perish-song

Character Name: Trixie

Pokémon Species: Hoopa (confined, and will always be)

Gender/Pronouns: Female, she/her

Personality: Trixie is very curious. She wants to experiment to see what she is capable of with her powers. Caring and kind, she hopes to one day use her powers to help those in need.

While Trixie wishes to see the full extent of her powers, she is too scared to do so. Having grown up hearing about the full power of unbound hoopa, she is worried that with more power than she could imagine, she could hurt others instead of helping them. Anything resembling a prison bottle, she will avoid.

Moveset: Hyperspace hole, Trick room, Shadow ball, Light screen

Ability Magician

PP group?: yes

Other: hmm... chocolate chip cookies.
