Psychic, water, flying and rock have been reserved.
Bug and poison are still open as well as veteran slots. Which means you can have a full six Pokémon team with evolved Pokémon and not limited to one element, but the draw back is you can not become a gym leader/elite four or champion if you take that spot.

Name
Aqrinal "Arqri" Lupaz
Age
16
Height:
1.70 m (5'6'')
Weight:
63.5 kg (140 lbs)
Hometown
Lunavelle
Personality
Aqri is an odd girl, quiet and composed around strangers, but child-like around close ones. She rarely cares about what people see her as, and often makes no effort in dressing every morning. She often wears the same clothes several days in a row, changing when her clothes get too dirty. If she's told to change, she will, but won't do it properly unless pushed to. Her eyes often gaze into nothing and everything all at once, staring intently at something or someone without blinking. She clings to those that she trusts, and likes to be carried around. People might see her as lazy, but Aqri is anything but lazy, she prefers to keeps all her cards close to her chest and suprise people with her strength. She trains at night, not liking to train around others and have people see her, so she's always tired during the day, falling asleep in random places and in random poses or sometimes on people. She can often be found asleep laying across someone's lap or on their back. She likes slightly sweet foods, and hates food that's dry or has no flavour. Once she sets her sights on something, she will stop only when she reaches her goal, or gets what it is that she wanted. If it's a person she's pursuing, she will be slightly more clingy with them, and glare at everyone that goes near them. She doesn't care about what type of pokemon a trainer has, and instead cares about if their pokemon are well and happy, and the trainer's attitude and personality.
Bio
Aqri was born to a small family that lived on the water, skilled in working with and communicating with the water pokemon that helped them with their everyday life. An old tradition in the family of gifting a water egg to a newborn and raising the egg with the young one proved useful in giving Aqri a friend while she grew up. Little Aqri carried the egg around with her everywhere she went, often falling and scraping her knees. Her parents often laughed at her when she would rather trip and land on her face then trip and possibly hurt the little egg she had been given. She rarely spoke to the people around her, choosing instead to care for the egg and talk to it. Every morning when she would go for a swim, she would bring several blankets down to the beach to cacoon the small egg in while she swam. If anyone even got close to her egg she would burst out of the water and stand over it protectively. For years, she carried the egg around, but it never hatched. She worried that it would never hatch for her, and when she started school, she had to leave it in the daycare with the other pokemon of the students. After every class, she would run back and check on it, making sure it was okay and hadn't hatched yet. She was always late to her classes because of that. Once her parents found out that she wasn't doing well in her classes because of her egg, they pulled her and started to homeschool her. She would sit on the dock of her parent's home and stare at the waves for hours, quietly rubbing the egg and cleaning the shell.
The egg that Aqri had been taking care of for years finally hatched when she turned 8, and the usually quiet girl was a bouncing ball of energy. Her parents threw a party for her, but Aqri skipped it, choosing to play with the newborn pokemon instead. No one really knows why the egg took 8 years to hatch, or how it was still alive after so long. Aqri didn't question it, and instead was quietly happy with the fact that she had a pokemon friend. Everyday, she would bring the small Corphish down to the docks with her and build it a little castle to play in while she swam and built her strength. The trainer and her pokemon went everywhere together, and never left each other's sides. When Aqri reached to age of 12, she began to train to be a pokemon trainer in the hopes of one day becoming the world's greatest water pokemon gym leader. Sure, it was a high bar to set, but Aqri was confident that she could make it. Cor-Cor (Corphish) grew quickly and steadily, understanding his trainer's want to be a great gym leader one day in an odd way. They trained at night so that the other water-type trainers wouldn't see them training and take their strategies. Often times, random pokemon would come and sit with Aqri and Cor-Cor as they sat on the docks, or watched them train. Most of the pokemon in and around her family's lands knew and trusted the young trainer, and liked to get treats from her. Her parents were happy that she was happy, and so let her go off on her own way, and didn't complain when Aqri wanted to leave to the city to train there.

Corphish
Gender:

Male
Nickname:

Cor-Cor
Height:
3'2''
Weight:
40 lbs.
Ability:
Adaptability
Personality:
Cor-Cor is the pokemon that hatched out of Aqri's first egg, and has been with her since he hatched. Cor-Cor is extremly possessive and territorial of Aqri, and hates being in his pokeball while Aqri is around crowds. He often pops out and pinches anyone who gets too close to his trainer, or shows any kind of affection to her. If he's told to do something, he always does it immediatly. If he think someone is okay, he pinches them. If he finds someone rude, or a danger, he pinches them. If he's told not to pinch, he waits until Aqri is gone to pinch. In short, Cor-Cor pinches everyone but Aqri. Once he approves of another pokemon, he'll drag them back to Aqri and ask her in his own way to take them on as well. Aqri often spends more money on Cor-Cor then on herself, and would rather go hungry then let her pokemon be hungry.
Cor-Cor has only brought back a Horsea that Arqri nicknamed King after one of her Father's own Pokemon.

Horsea
Gender:
Male
Nickname:
King
Height:
0.4 m (1'04'')
Weight:
8 kg (17.6 lbs.)
Ability:
Sniper
Personality:
King is a Horsea that Cor-Cor brought Aqri to see one day. The small Pokemon immediately took a liking to the yawning and tired girl with her shirt falling off her shoulders, and decided to follow her. He stays in his pokeball most of the time, only coming out when Aqri either calls him out, or when he senses water nearby and wants to go for a swim. He's the calmer of the two pokemon Aqri has, and doesn't care about others getting to close to his trainer. He likes sweet drinks, and Aqri always buys him one whenever she can. He likes to swim with his trainer, and makes small noises and grunts when another water pokemon comes up to Aqri. He always trains hard and often overworks himself to the point of having Aqri having to get him to stop training when mid-day comes. He loves Aqri like a mother and hates seeing her hurt, and so will do anything for her.
Notes:
Aqri and the others from Lunaville kinda know each other, but not really. More of a, 'Hey, I've seen you around somewhere here.'

1599437544122.png

- Alakazam "Zaz" (M)
Moves: Psychic, Energy Ball, Calm Mind, Recover
1599437733918.png

1599438051817.png
Personality: Nova is often found by Troy's side when they make camp or resting. She has a strong attachment and has struggles with stress from previous events. Troy has gotten her used to treating him as her safety bubble. When her nerves or confidence go down she can always hold him for help.

- There is a crack on her red crest as signs of damage when she was very young. She was delivered to the Manner to heal were she met Troy.


Personality: Easy going and a very kind soul. With a love of learning and Pokemon you will be hard pressed to find him angry unless it is at the injury of Pokemon and people. He loves to battle and further bond with his Pokemon or helping others do the same.

Bio: As a young man Troy was born in the Hoenn region. He grew up with a loving mother but a partly absent father as he chased his dream of being a Pokemon master. However when his father was home he never could leave him alone. Loving the stories of adventure and wanting to experience the world of Pokemon like he did. Upon one of his fathers visits he was given the greatest gift he had ever received. He was given his first Pokemon at the age of seventeen. The Machop he named Fido and became closer every time they trained. Though Troy would eventually be much older and past his prime with his Fido he was never out of shape. Especially in his younger years he trained every moment he could with Fido. Becoming an excellent fighter himself though he seldom liked to hurt others. Continuing their journey through the Hoenn region at a modified pace, partly out of young eagerness and sometimes foolish adventuring, Troy grew to love Pokemon greatly. Learning to communicate with patience and understanding. Often able to watch and listen to them in a strange way that many could not. He studied many species and once he established himself as one of the elite of Hoenn he took the chance he always dreamed of. For just over two decades Troy stood as one of the best in the elite four of Hoenn. But he couldn't deny the skill of a trainer he had been helping guide on their journey. Their potential was undeniable so when they arrived and beat the four just failed to beat the champion Troy announced his leaving of the Elite four.

Allowing his protegee he saw so much in to succeed him in his place on the four. He ventured he studied more Pokemon and took in the injured and those that seemed they had nowhere to go. In time he established the Vargas Manner. Though based in the Hoenn region it has influence in nearby regions as well. Having earned a significant amount of wealth he built the manner to help heal and give Pokemon a place to reside. By no means were they restricted to stay there. But if they needed somewhere safe, something to eat, or someone to be there for them the staff and care there was always available. And if they wanted to stay and bond with a passing trainer or one of the staff they were more than welcome to. Most of his current team being those he helped at the Manner or had in his journey. During many more years as one of the Elite four of Hoenn he was feeling the adventurous call he always felt as a young man. So he set off for another adventure. He hoped it would be a good one. And looks forward to all the Pokemon he has yet to see.

Natasha Gray

7e665a738b58b867d3481e6203006910.jpg

Age: 16

Hometown: Fortree City (Later moved to Azalea City)

Personality:​

Natasha is someone who is very anxious and shy when it comes to being around other people whom she is not close to. She enjoys the company of pokemon more than humans and wouldn't normally interact with other people unless they interacted with her first. She's not brave enough to rush into danger and would cover behind her pokemon or her close friends should a threat ever come close to her. She can be somewhat of a clean freak, making sure that she is well dressed and cleaned up for any event, which is sure to garner attention from a lot of the people around her.

However, don't let that fool you. Regarding those negatives, Natasha can be energetic and determined when it comes to getting the job done. While she isn't a expert on fighting, she has performed quite well in battles before alongside her friend. And when she's close to someone, she can be rather friendly to them and consider them someone to trust. She'll always protect them and give them snacks when she can and might bug you a lot. And if she really likes someone, she'll follow them around like a puppy would and help them out with whatever they need, food, caretaking, shopping, you name it, as long as it isn't something she can't do for various reasons.

Bio:​

As a child, Natasha spent some of her time growing up in Fortree City with her parents, where they were researchers within the Weather Institute in which they focused reading on the certain changes of the weather. She always had enjoyed spending time with her childhood friends there, playing with pokemon and doing some crazy stuff with them while being watched over by their caretaker. But something happened one day at the Weather Institute that had caused both of her parents to be terminated and forced to move away from the region, meaning Natasha would lose her friends and be forced into a new town with people she doesn't know. Even her friends who have heard the news about her parents had become distant to her out of fear. Because of this, she started developing a bit of shyness and anxious around people now.

Moving into Azalea City, Natasha was scared to be in a new town that was completely different from the beautiful hometown she grew up in. And there wasn't many kids around her age that would hang out with her, making it hard to make friends around her age. But there was one person whom was around her age and befriended her. That boy's name was Bugsy. It was thanks to him that help Natasha get more suited in living in this town and become more sociable to her neighbors in town. The two of them would go out and explore the forest and look at bug pokemon together. Even the two of them took up researching these bug pokemon for fun and wrote down notes to share among each other about what they learned from the pokemon's habitat. Both of her parents are happy to see their daughter being more sociable and getting along with Bugsy and the rest of the other neighbors in town.

However, over time, the two of them hung out less and less. Natasha believed this to be Bugsy losing interest in hanging out with her. When she confronted him, he admitted that he was spending more time studying and training to become a gym leader to take over once the current gym leader of Azalea City retires. She become curious about gym leaders and when Bugsy told her, she was excited. She wanted to help Bugsy reach that goal and would try to train alongside him so that she could become a gym leader one day. The two rekindled their friendship and trained together in order to help each other's dream. Needless to say, While Bugsy succeeded in his goal to become a gym leader, Natasha struggled to improve, only managing to catch a Sewaddle in the forest one day.

Realizing that she may not be capable of becoming a gym leader. Bugsy tried to encourage her to keep on training herself. He also mentions that during one of the meetings with a friend that Lunavelle was looking for applications for gym leader positions for the growing city. While Natasha was unsure of herself, due to her recent struggles, Bugsy told her that she won't be alone and that he'll always have her back as he hands her his valuable heracross to lend to her as something to remember him by when she's working hard becoming a gym leader. With renewed determination, she set out for Lunavelle with her parent's blessings as she tries her best to become a gym leader there and fulfill her friend's promise.

Typing Specialty: Bug

Starter Pokemon:​

Heracross.full.2628000.jpg


Borrowing this pokemon from Bugsy and giving it a nickname, Longhorn is fierce and loyal to whomever its trainer is. He also enjoys showing off to other pokemon, even to the opposite gender. Though if their trainer would be in danger or if someone is trying to be rude, he'll attack them with his horn as a warning. While this is Natasha's only pokemon that can fight, it shows signs of experience and can put up a bit of a fight in battle.

Lizzie was the only pokemon that Natasha had caught while in Azalea. While it may not be a fighter, it can give moral support to Natasha, sometimes acting like a cheerleader. While it does know tackle, string shot, and big bite it doesn't intend on using it unless it's in a dire situation. It is also known to be scared at times and would hide inside Natasha's shirt for protection. It can also be friendly to other humans and pokemon, usually greeting them with a hearty hello to them when given the chance.

Name: Arsenia

Age: 13

Height: 5'

Personality: Arsenia cares deeply for anyone and eve. As a child she was much more open and honest about her feelings but now entering her teens she is drawing more in on herself. She is very confident in herself, but she also knows when to quit and try again later. She believes that if you don't succeed the first time there will be a next time. Other than that, she tends to act like she doesn't care, more so if she doesn't know someone she is talking to. Though if pushed she will explode like a sack of poison. Especially if so calls her short.

Bio: Arsenia comes from a family of breeders. Her hometown is Lumiose City, a large bustling city that has as much energy as the electric pokemon that keep it going. Her mother owned a salon for people and pokemon on the north side of the city while her father helped breed pokemon for the professor. Her older brother had gone out and studied pokemon on his journey until finding a job working at a daycare. They all seemed happy doing what they do, but she wanted to see more than just Kalos.

One day, her father had a business trip to the galar region, and she saw an opportunity. She was 9 at the time and without a partner, she wanted someone special, someone with a story. Her father agreed to take her with him, there were plenty of interesting pokemon for her to meet and she may even take one home if she liked.

The business trip went by and she wasn't finding a pokemon. Her dad decided to teach her about camping while there, leaving them in the wild area around Giant's Cap. They didn't account for the strange weather the wild area kept and was one day forced to stay inside during a horrible rainstorm. That's when she heard a cry ring out. It was full of fear and very alone. Pushing her father's warnings aside she opened the flap of their tent to find a baby toxel all alone.

She rushed out to grab it, fighting against the high winds and heavy rain. Toxel was almost as big as she was but she lifted him into her arms and hurried back to her tent. Toxel had a fever, he had clearly been out in the storm for some time. Her father helped her in trying to make the baby pokemon better. It took many days and nights, even delayed their flight back home as they worried toxel wouldn't make it. When toxel fina came to, he was very pleased with the young girl who saved him. So he began her special pokemon, receiving a regular pokeball to call home but preferring to be carried by his trainer.

Years later she met Clement, the gym leader from her town. She asked him for a battle, having some experience and only one pokemon she lost, but she saw the power Clement had. She wanted to become that powerful a trainer, she wanted that bond. Having heard about the new region looking to train new gym leaders, she was ready, and as a parting gift, her father gave her an egg which hatched just before she left to reveal a female skrelp.

Pokemon:

Toxel (Oxie)
Moves: acid, tearful look, protect

Skrelp
Moves: twister, smokescreen

imgbin-anime-drawing-kawaii-emo-emo-girl-12BQRDfKGuh3UNPPfRGBTuYNw_t.jpg

Name: Silvia

Age: 43

Height: 5'7"

Personality: Silvia is a kind, gentle, and caring woman. She works hard for those she cares about and takes care of them. She doesn't care much for other's opinions of her, she does whatever she wants when she wants, within reason. She tries to teach other young women to do the same.

Bio: Silvia is Arsenias aunt. She hails from Kalos, specifically Shalour City. She is related on her father's side. Silvia began with a dream to be a master, however, she was forced to do something more practical to care for her aging parents when her big brother left. He sent money but she still had to help maintain the house they lived in.

When they passed she moved away but wrote and video chatted her family frequently. More so Arsenia. She saw the light in the young girl's eyes so when she heard of the chance for her to become a leader, she had to tell her. This sparked a huge argument with her parents.

Arsenia had already attempted a journey around Kalos, but she came back home when it was too much. Silvia knew the girl was just recovering and would return to the world when she felt ready. Her parents thought otherwise given how dangerous this is. The arguing only stopped because Arsenia said she was going and it wasn't a question.

Silvia's brother thought little of his younger sister's life because she had no children or husband. She moved by herself in a small house and she came and went as she pleased. Her parents had left her a large sum of money so she learned to invest it in something to help her maintain her account. She battled often and gained her living from that, and while that may be a good earning for a child, to her brother she was too old for this. She ignored him and kept going. She was happy and that was all that mattered.

She had Arsenia come live with her at 12 so she could train her. She knew the girl could succeed if someone showed her how to use her pokemon. Once she was confident in herself, Silvia enrolled her for the training. It was going to be a long road, but she couldn't wait to see the end of it.

Height: 6 foot even

Personality: Issac is understanding and flexible on many levels, and while he can smile brightly and light up and be full of energy life of the party kind of party, kind of guy.
He's not always like that and can somewhat guarded and untrusting of people and is happy with his own company.
Some might say his moral compass leans towards being a villain or anti-hero given, he doesn't always care about the rules of engagement or society.
He will help people but he prefers dealing with that don't waste the time he invests and energy into making them better.
Due to his brother's influence, he grew very fond of physic and ghost pokemon because he has a deep interest in the legends of ghosts and physic pokemon and their behaviors.

Some might say his deep interest in such pokemon is creepy. He might retort people will always fear what they don't understand, but the more, i know about them the better my bound with them will be and the more potential there is be discovered.
He enjoys reading and learning new things this helps him learn more about the many subjects of the world and the people within it.

He is very hard working but also needs to take a break so he doesn't burn himself out.

Bio: Issac was born in Keukelo, with an older brother by fifteen years, for a while his older brother Jio and him were really close when they when Issac was younger. Rio he was the one that got Issac interested in owning and bonding with the pokemon of Keukelo, he grew leaps and bounds while learning from his older brother.

Due to his thirst for knowledge and practicing most days, he knew from a young age he wanted to travel the world and learn more but he didn't have enough money because his family was fairly poor.
It then came to him that he could use the pictures and his notes to sell to the newspapers as well as work his way to becoming a badass pokemon trainer.

He sent some of the money he made from the articles he sent to the newspaper companies and other side jobs. He continued this from the age of eighteen to twenty-eight and always made sure to send twenty of his earnings to his family during this time.
Ten years on he now has the funds to travel without having to worry about money or his family being poor ever again.

If I've reacted to your cs recently, then your character is good to go! Just make sure to check with the members of a selected type if you are a varied, veteran trainer or have a character who has a secondary type pokemon to see if the pokemon they want isn't already claimed :) Priority goes to primary types if it is a dual typing. Multiples of the same pokemon are allowed if it's ok with the person who chose the primary type.
 
The ground trainee slot has reopened.
