I wrote the following while half asleep this morning, so please be considerate. I'm not good at shortening things --;;
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pokémon RP: Island 004 (name subject to change)
Name: Sibyl
Age: 15
Sex: Female
Primary weapon: FN P90 (optional silencer)
Pokémon companions: Lucario, Celebi, and Dragonite (nicknames will likely be given/list not final)
The RP’s world in a nutshell:
Ok the world of Pokémon is a little warped at the moment. A once democratic government was overthrown by a select few of the legislators and a new, more communistic rule has been instated. The main points of exploitation are Pokémon’s vast manpower and a material dubbed Pokénergie, the driving force behind Pokéballs’ ability to capture creatures, the powering of vehicles, machinery and whatnot, and also the material used to run vast network channels (internet) throughout the island as well as throughout the Pokémon world (Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh). As a result of this coup, a military police force has been dispatched to seize all Pokémon in order to fulfill the bureaucrats’ desires for Pokenergie excavation. The Pokémon are being forced to act against their will and are even killed for speaking (I’ll get to this) out against the government, an entity which wishes to remain enigmatic so as to frighten the people of Sinnoh and the Pokémon into obeying their every command.
The RP will begin with the introduction of our characters some 15 or so years after the government was transformed into the chaos that it is now. We will be sons and daughters of an underground revolution against the gov’t’s mistreatment of Pokémon and humans as well as the abuse of certain sexes (it seems that some of the bureaucrats are old-fashioned and are much more Chauvinistic than one would expect, so women are reduced to the menial tasks that accompanied females in ancient times i.e. cooking, gathering food for men, breeding, etc.). Women are mistreated beyond belief along with Pokémon, as the government sees them as nothing more than items which they may exploit at will.
Now the characters must be within a certain age frame of around 14-19 with no special powers whatsoever (that means no magic, no fancy weapons, no eternal youth, etc. etc.). You must be a character of early to late teens and NORMAL. As confusing as this may seem for some reason I cannot imagine older characters in this story, because for me Pokémon has always been a thing for the younger people and not a realm for the old, despite the gym leaders existing. So if you would please, just make a character that fits the description (and NO CAPES/CLOAKS. They don’t have any purpose whatsoever and only make you look stupid in this context).
For each character I’ve envisioned this much: All characters must have a maximum of 3 Pokémon on them (fewer is acceptable if desired; you may not have three legendary Pokémon, but at most you may have one) along with ONE firearm of your choice (no mounted machine guns, no RPGs, no missile or grenade launchers; I’d prefer they be pistols, semi-auto rifles, submachine guns, assault rifles, etc. ). If you need help looking for a particular weapon, I can provide an enormous collection of firearms online with accompanying pictures. In a sense the Pokémon are for aesthetic purposes only and are actually those Pokémon smuggled in by the forefathers of the revolution for the purpose of aiding us in our quest to overthrow the government. However they will fight alongside you in the campaign so it’s important to choose Pokémon that you like. They will be the only ones you will ever have in the RP. Weapons are also an aesthetic preference and I will not discriminate if you use a .22 caliber (peashooter) and I’m firing away with a 7.62 (AK-47 caliber). Just use what you think is cool (as far as looks are concerned). But keep in mind again that this will be the only weapon you will use throughout the RP, so choose something you’ll like.
When considering the character sheet, I guess that the “Abilities and Attacks” tab will be used to display all the attacks for your Pokémon as well as the info on your gun (which like I mentioned before is easily attainable through a site I know). You are not limited to 4 attacks per Pokémon since this is a real scenario and they don’t have PP or anything, but you are limited to the amount allowed by normal character rules (I’m sure that they apply to each Pokémon separately so you don’t have like 3 attacks for two and 2 attacks for one).
This was rushed I’m sorry ^^;

I respectfully disagree
