It's an RP about wild Pokemon in a big city. You can pick your species, what you do in the city (you can be part of or run a small gang) what clothes you wear (if you wear clothes) and the plot is basically survive, interact with one another or temporary OCs, and to band together to fight against a gang of Pokemon that wants the backstreets for themselves.

So, requirements: Name (if you want), species, clothing (possible), occupation (if you have one), and moves.

Hmmmm... I'm listening, and resisting doing Mareep in the big city. I'll think about it.

How human-like are these pokemon if they have clothing/occupations. Or do you just mean the way that the Squirtle Gang had sunglasses?

Are legendaries allowed? I'd like to play Jirachi...

Are there humans in the city, or just Pokemon?

You're living in the back streets of a human city, just making your way in life. Yes, you can be a legendary, as long as you don't try to lord it over everyone else. Unless you're evil or in a fight. And yes, the Pokemon are sentient and can talk to one another and junk. They're basically kind of like Mystery Dungeon, there's like street cultures

Anyway, characters!

  • Name: Jet
  • Species: Buizel
  • Clothing: Blue bandanna around his right arm, really small sleeveless vest, and pants. Yes, pants.
  • Moves: Aqua Jet, Water Gun, Ice Punch, and Protect

Whelp, seeing as the other Pokemon RP that I've fooled around with is currently stuck in limbo...

Color me interested.

And "Reality" is unveiled. What did it want...? What did it see...? What did it hear...? What did it think...? What did it do...?

^ Does Flint happen to have a girlfriend named Amber? tongue

I'm not sure what I want to be at the moment... I'm mulling between a series of mythology gags.

Also, I'm having trouble deciding of an occupation for my character. So far I'm thinking of a waiter. Any other suggestions?

I mean occupation like do they do anything on the street. Like run a gang, part of a gang, pseudo-orphanage, things like that. The plot will evolve as it goes along.

Is it a good idea or a bad idea to make PCs Shout Outs to other characters in fiction? If it's a good idea, I had a few ideas for a Smeargle...

Name: Sluggard

Species: Slowbro

Clothing: A leather jacket he took from a human.

Occupation: Gang Leader (Sea Gang)

Moveset: Trick Room, Zen Headbutt, Ice Punch, Aerial Ace

Sluggard took the Sea Gang's leader position because of his Blood Knight beliefs. He makes his home in a shipping crate on the beach. Collects "Protection Berries" from people in his territory (or any trash really) to pay his Grimer and Trubbish contacts. Frequently goes full-on hot blooded, much to the surprise of witnesses. Views the Pokemon in his territory as under his protection.

...and that's terrible.
