This is the official signup for the interesting RP that will involve the exciting adventures of a pokemon coordinator and her struggle to not only achieve her dream of being the best, but face the sinister forces and evil plans of Team Laser - a small, militaristic offshoot of Team Rocket that believe in using pokemon as weapons of war.
If you're intersted in this, then let your voice be heard. You can be a coordinator, a trainer caught up in this mess, a member of TL, or a TL member who's realized how evil their organization is in their harsh and inhumane treatment of their pokemon - and desire to turn traitor against them.
Note: There will be unusual pokemon involved in this, because TL tries to enhance the powers and abilities of pokemon to turn them into destructive or skillful warriors capable of even killing people. There are a few top secret projects concerning this, and even some of their members know nothing of those bizarre experiments.
Name: Katherine Leblanc Nickname: "Kat" Age: 18 Status: Rookie Coordinator Home: Verdanturf Eyes: Blue Hair: Dark Green (done in a braid, tied with a gold band) Pokemon: Skitty, Ninetales, Nuzleaf, Raichu, Wingull, and Fearow Appearance: (will add this when I have more time) History: (will add this when I have more time)

Thyra Russell Age: 16 Height: Approx. 5'4" Weight: Approx. 115-125 lb. Hair: Black, medium length Outfit: Thyra generally wears rather expensive clothing, though never anything too impractically priced. Her outfits generally revolve around a sky blue leather jacket that her parents gave to her that she was wearing during the destruction of Slateport. In addition to the jacket, she typically wears a set of small, refined looking shades of a traditional color. Jeans and a t-shirt flesh out the look, and she typically wears either tennis shoes, or open toed platforms, depending on the weather and the task at hand. Powers: Thyra distinguishes herself from most PRP characters by still having ORP heritage. Though she has powers, they are rather unspectacular. She can generate an invincible forcefield big enough to cover herself and the area around her in a three foot radius, but can not move from that spot at all while it's up. In addition, she can fly roughly 15-50 MPH under her own power, with moderate manueverability. However, both of these powers can be exhausted by prolonged use. Strategy: Thyra is best described as brutal in combat. She doesn't believe in giving any quarter or mercy to any foe that is enough of a threat to be a challenge. Although she will not resort to underhanded attacks, she often severely wounds her opponents just by the nature of her incredibly powerful attacks. Relevant History: Thyra was raised as an only child in Slateport. When it was destroyed, and Thyra was orphaned, she found her life almost ruined. Sly and Zebedee offered her a spot in Cherrygrove, and her best friend Natalie was at hand, giving her the strength to make it through that difficult time in her life. Party: Will give later. I remember most of the details, but I'm gonna go dig up her old bio.

Hey! No destroying canon locales, dude! This follows the anime storyline (and may even have brief mentions of the adventures of Ash Ketchum and crew if relevant to certain situations/discussions).
And yes, since my character is a coordinator, this takes place in the Hoenn region. My character's home being Verdanturf, btw.
(currently using my mom's comp, so I don't have access to all my pokemon RP stuff in order to create a decent bio yet; be patient)

Actually, Slateport was wrecked in a rather major ORP/PRP storyline a few YEARS back (Early Snitz), so no, it isn't ruins right now. IIRC, after it was wrecked as the end result of a long story arch, a sort of urban renewal program was set in place, and now has updated it to a much more modern and pleasant city than most any other in the region, though in some back corners there still are hidden ruins and desolate spots.
Granted, this is if we're following any ORP/PRP cannon at all, if not, then, well, I suppose that it was totally untouched.

Interesting stuff. But I'd like this to be fresh and new, and that also means making new characters for it. No old RP folks in here, got it?
I'd like this to be an interesting adventure in the world of the anime, and it'd rock if anyone could have their character be how they'd be if they actually were in the anime. That means no weird stuff from other universes - only what exists in the pokemon universe (and that includes odd things revealed in the movies, like the existence of "aura" in all things, etc.).

Name: William Defoe Nickname: Will Age: 18 Status: Team Laser Member Home: Mossdeep City Eyes: Green Hair: Straight, shoulder length, dyed a dark purple. Pokemon: Pikachu, Charmeleon, Banette, Marshtomp Appearance: Always wears his TL outfit. History: (I'll add this later when I can think of something decent.)
I'm gonna take on the role of TL traitor, though I'll work towards it. Don't wanna start out straight away with him on the run.

I'll jump in to this. Looks like fun.
Name: Alphonse Jamison Wainwright Nickname: AJ Age: 19 Status: Wandering Trainer and Advisor Home: Olivine City Eyes: Green Hair: Deep brown and short Pokemon: Steelix, Smeargle, Venonat, Magby Appearance: A simple black dress shirt and a pair of tan shorts is all that he ever wears. History: AJ grew up in a wealthy family and as such had access to just about any pokemon that he wanted, but he didn't seem to want any of them given to him. On one of his many journeys in his vast property he found a small horn that seemed to be made of steel which he insisted be revived by his families scientists. The resulting Shieldon became AJ's best friend and partner. AJ left home not long after that and began training pokemon for a living, trying at all costs to shun his families wealth. To this day he lives a simple life and tries to help out any trainer in need. Nothing makes him more angry than the theft of pokemon or use of them for immoral things.

Scarily close to the history of my character Six. o.O

I'm not sure that I ever read his history. If it really is then I didn't mean it to be.

I am so insane. I've actually gone and taken ideas from what I was planning for this story, and am going to use them in a major 'team war' RP over at Bulbagarden. LOL.
Wish more folks would take interest in this RP, though. We need substance.

We don't have many active PRPers...This might be all that we get.

Well, my 'team war' RP isn't gaining much interest enough to begin that. (apparently, there's too many badass RPs already in progress for anyone at Bulbagarden to be that interested in taking part in my tale - except for like two people, which sucks.)
If you guys think it'd be cool, how about we change the story for this and my character be my usual trainer (Shinsei Kinoboru). Since Shinsei's dad is also dead like 'Kat', it could work; I could make it that Team Laser played a part in his death and Shinsei will find out about it. Team Rocket could be involved in this story, too, since TL originated in their group and have come to utterly despise them and their current members (especially the Elite, like Bashou, Buson, Tatsumi, etc.). Let me know what you think and I could re- work this idea into something awesome... (otherwise, I'll just create a new story based on some ideas that I've been getting from buds at Bulbagarden).

Hurray! So, does this mean that I can use my ideas? I've been thinking of renovating the biography of Shinsei, and this is a darn good reason to.
*goes off to do some work on the biography text file she has*
