Palkia's rage RP sign ups and OOC

Our story begins about two years ago. Treek, the Treecko of the legendary team Pokepals, had made Dialga see sense, and had just returned to the now-safe world. The future was safe. It had taken a hit on Treek's sanity, unfortunately; the Treecko seemed to believe that he had always been with a Pokemon - a human, of all things - named "Kyle", came with him to face Dialga and had defeated the primal God with him. Nonetheless, the world was happy knowing that the world would forever be safe.
Except that it wasn't. As the months passed, mystery dungeons sprouted up more and more, some even overlapping with Treasure town. The Guild itself, in fact, had turned into a mystery dungeon, much to the surprise and chagrin of its inhabitants. Eight months after the defeat of primal Dialga, Treasure Town existed only as a relic within the mystery dungeon that is now the world. The secret bazaar, a small gap in the space-time continuum, had now become the home to over eighty Pokemon. Explorations had become suicide missions; the chances of finding the entrance to a secret bazaar were so small that explorers rarely returned until at least a month had passed - if at all. The rescue badges, too, had become meaningless, used only for identification now.
Everybody knew the cause; Palkia had gone primal, just as Dialga had once. Striken with fear, the inhabitants of the bazaar turned to the legendary Treek for help. Treek, the defeater of Gods, the restorer of time. But he couldn't; the loss of his best friend, Kyle, still hurt him. Six months ago today, the Treecko just upped and left, never to be seen again.
You are team *insertnamehere*; a fledgling exploration team - and a foolish one at that. Most remaining exploration teams had only level 80s or 90s, considering the risk of entering the Mystery Dungeon, yet you, mere level 10s and 20s, felt it necessary to search for your hero, the legendary Treek, in the mystery dungeon of the World. Society would never allow your team to leave the confines of the Bazaar, so you had to escape yourselves.
Two days have passed since you left. You appear to be in the part of the mystery dungeon that was once known as the Foggy Forest. Your resources are dwindling - you each hold only one berry and only one reviver seed is left for all of you. Hunger claims you all, and you don't know how long you will last. But there's hope yet; you've found something strange. A human lying against a tree, awake but tired.
Kyle.

RULES:

Spoiler:

A better version of the rules:
No Godmodding or cheating; I don't want people knowing things they don't know or doing things they shouldn't do.
No creating events (Random encounters, earthquakes, etc.). That's my job. I'm the GM, if I want a zombie apocalypse to show up (which I don't), I don't want one of you guys to say that everything went smoothly and skip ahead of an event, or for you guys to say that there was a HUUUUUUGE earthquake.
In PVP fights, don't play to win. Negotiate with your opponent, try to figure out who'd be the winner beforehand, who'd be better both in battle and in terms of story. You should bring it up with me, too, but that's optional.
In NON-PVP fights, I'm in control of the enemy. Attempt to be as descriptive as possible, and in contrast to PVP fights, DO try to win please. Each battle (except, maybe, for the final one) will be no more than a page long.
If I say you're down in battle, you're down. This may be done in order to emphasize an unbeatable boss, further the story or just to cut short a PVP battle in which both sides try to win. You can still RP if you're down, you just can't attack or move quite as quickly.
Posts must be at least 100 words long each, preferably 200+.
Each character may only hold 5 items besides what (s)he is wearing, which should be clearly shown in your post so that I can edit the original post.
Each character IS only holding one berry and whatever he/she is wearing at the moment. One character (one who will be decided later, based on what you guys think) will also hold the reviver seed.
There's no posting order, but 3 posts must pass before you can post again (subject to change)
If you do not post for over 1 week without good reason (from the point that you're able according to the previous rule), or for over 3 weeks no matter what, I will murder your character. Possibly brutally.

Work in Progress

NAME: Dawn.
GENDER: Female.
SPECIES: Riolu.
PERSONALITY: Dawn is a rather strict and focused Riolu who won’t take crap from anyone about anything. Even if they do have a point and she recognizes it, she will refuse to make it publically known that she agrees with it. When faced with a difficult decision or situation, she will normally rush in head first and force her way through it instead of taking time to think about other, slower and safer options. She has good reason for this, as she was never too much of an intellectual type and will usually only be able to think out short term plans without thinking of what consequences they may have. What she lacks in that department though, she makes up for in physical ability. She is a fast and offensive fighter, preferring not to resort to defensive tactics or run away unless it’s obvious to her that any other option is futile. On a separate note, when it comes to making friends or socializing she is rather blunt and straightforward with her opinion, not taking time to sugar coat or lie about what she thinks and not seeing a point in it. Although she may put off a feel that she doesn’t care much for company or that she can’t relax with others, she is incredibly loyal to those she manages to get stuck with and will fight on their behalf and her own to the best of her ability.
APPEARANCE: She is a normally colored Riolu, but finds herself on the shorter side of what the normal size for her species is, rounding in at about 1'10" instead of 2'04". She wears a red scarf around her neck and a plain blue Beret on the top of her head, resting just over the beginning of her ears.
ATTACKS: Cross Chop, Drain Punch, Thunderpunch, Counter, Force Palm, Copycat.
ABILITY: Inner Focus.
ITEM: Oran Berry.
ROLEPLAY EXAMPLE: https://pmd-roleplay.forumotion.org/t832-explorers-of-sky-rp Didn't really know how to link just one post, but I'm confident in most of the posts here.
TEAM NAME: Well Buttmunchers doesn't work, so how about Natural Disaster, from recent events and the fact that Treek is a grass type, hence natural. Yes I used the cliche method, no I have no better idea.

Lookin' good Pika! It's my fault for not putting the history in the Character sheet. Lemme look at everybody elses characters before accepting you, though, alright?

NAME: Maria

GENDER: Female

SPECIES: Misdreavus

PERSONALITY: Maria is a timid Misdreavus. She dislikes loud noises and negative emotions, as ironic as it is. She tends to disappear often, hiding away in a dark corner or possessing something small enough that she goes unnoticed. This becomes more frequent when strangers or easily-angered pokemon are around.

When in the presence of friends, however, her attitude greatly changes. She puts on a cheerful facade, not wanting them to see her timid nature (Even though it's painfully obvious). She tends to be a bit clingy, afraid of going on her own or with pokemon she doesn’t like. Often times she attempts to play independent, not wanting to be too much of a burden on others. She also tends to be too naïve and trusting, believing even the most ridiculous of sob stories and excuses.

However, she isn't as innocent as you think. After a traumatizing experience, she's become quite unstable. You could dismiss her unusual outbursts as simply paranoia (Which makes it all the more easier), but once you look deep into her head... Well, let's just hope you don't have to suffer that experience. She's pretty good with covering it up, though.

HISTORY:

Maria was born in the Sky Stairway. Her parents were an ordinary Misdreavus and a Gengar, both whom cared for her as much as any family would. She was taught basic ghost abilities, how to hone them and use them to defend herself as she grew up there.

Now, Maria was much more curious during her time at Sky Stairway. She had a knack for exploring while her parents weren't watching. During one of her wanderings, she accidentally stumbled upon the staircase leading to the Secret Bazaar. Being the curious little ghost she is, she entered it.

Maria was overjoyed at the sight of the Bazaar, never has she seen so many different pokemon and so many odd structures! She happily explored it for a while, taking in her new surroundings. But it didn't take long for her to grow homesick. She didn't know how to get back, and was left all alone. It was then an unfamiliar pokemon came, taking the role of her foster parent. The pokemon introduced herself as 'Kangaskhan'.

Kangaskhan was an excellent parent, surprising aware of how to care for a ghost. But in exchange for her care, Maria was not allowed outside their home. She didn’t mind. After all, she was being cared for and the Kangaskhan ran a Storage shop in the Secret Bazaar, allowing her to practice her ghost abilities on items. She had everything she needed.

The day came when Maria decided it was time to test out her new abilities on an actual pokemon. Seeing how she didn’t know any other pokemon, she decided to possess her foster parent. The opportunity came, and she took the body of her caretaker. However, she was greeted by something that would haunt her for the rest of her life.

Inside the Kangaskhan’s head, she witnessed the incident that answered her question as to why her foster parent adopted her. Her caretaker’s real child was killed when a shelf of treasure boxes fell down on it as it was playing. The child was crushed to death, left in a bloody heap under the many boxes. Maria could feel the Kangaskhan’s anguish; it drove the mother to a state of madness, causing her to blame the pokemon who brought the boxes to her store. When the pokemon who stored the boxes came, the deranged Kangaskhan tricked them, leading them into the store and killing them. Their mangled bodies were hidden away, locked up in an empty box and stowed in the dark corners of the Storage. Maria witnessed their families set up missing posters, and how they looked for the now-dead pokemon all over the bazaar. The worst part? She could feel her caretaker’s hidden, sick, joy.

It took a while, but the Misdreavus was able to escape her caretaker’s body. She never came back afterwards, traumatized at what she’d seen in the Kangaskhan’s mind. To top it off, she realized that she was a mere replacement for her foster’s child.

She decided to join a team in hopes of making new companions and possibly to find her way back to her home. She’s been a loyal companion so far, not making any objections against the team’s decision to go into a dungeon with such low levels. After all, it was in order to save the world. It might even save her sanity.

APPEARANCE: Maria seems a bit darker in color compared to other Misdreavus and has purple tips instead of lilac. She wears a bright purple bow above her pearls.

ATTACKS:
-Destiny Bond
-Psywave
-Confuse Ray
-Icy Wind
-Dark Pulse
-Heal Bell
-Uproar
-Magic Coat

ABILITY: Levitate: Damage dealing Ground-type moves have no effect on this Pokémon. Cannot be trapped by Arena Trap ability. Takes no damage from Spikes.

ITEM:
Purple Bow (Equipped): Slightly boosts Attack, Defense, Special Attack, and Special Defense.
Oran Berry: Restores HP.

ROLEPLAY EXAMPLE:
https://pmd-roleplay.forumotion.org/t1023-pokemon-rebirth-rp I think. Seems like the best one I have so far. If main RP, then https://pmd-roleplay.forumotion.org/t1136-apple-hunting-open since it's my most recent and seems decent enough.

TEAM NAME: Team Buttmunchers Uh. Team... Hope? I dunno. They're looking to save the world, so they kind of act as hope. Don't look at me, son. I'm terrible with names.

Wait, so you're talking about Kangaskhan. That Kangaskhan everybody gives their items to. Wow.
Just clarify one thing for me, would you? How long has Maria been taken care of by Kangaskhan? It's been less than 2 years since everybody moved to the Secret Bazaar, but it appears as though Maria's known only that place all her life.

NAME: Victoria Jones; Vee if you bruise easy.

GENDER: Female

SPECIES: Elekid (lvl 20 I guess. No way to specify lvl so I'm putting it here)

APPEARANCE: As per a normal Elekid, though buffer. Wears an Expert Belt around her forehead.

ATTACKS:
Ice Punch
Fire Punch
Thunder Punch
Dynamic Punch
Magnet Rise
Swift
Thunder Wave
Electroweb

ABILITY:Static

ITEMS:
Expert Belt [Equip]
Oran Berry

PERSONALITY: Vee is a spunky funky tomboy; a punch first, ask questions while punching sort of girl. Though she has a soft side, Vee is a dominant individual who's pride keeps her from backing down from even the most tedious or impossible tasks, a trait of which she's fully aware. A bit of a show off, she loves to challenge others and knows from experience that brute force is the way of the universe, not to say she knows nothing of sublimity. Apt at reading body movements, assessing threat and acting quickly, Vee lacks an emotional understanding formed from a life of solitude. These experiences curse her to a form of naïvety. Despite this, her humor is innate, high, low and sometimes unintentional.

HISTORY: Victoria remembers little. She was in a forest dungeon for the first few years of her life, fending for herself from dusk until dawn until dusk again. She rarely ate or slept enough, but always managed to get by. Eventually she made her way to the Secret Bazaar, at which stage her memory clears. She took a job of menial labour in exchange for a roof, 1.5 square meals and a pittance. Working hard, Vee soon surpassing her employers expectations and others began offering her a better deal. It was at this stage she was confronted by one farmer who wanted protection from the dungeons and offered her something others did not. Education. A thirst for knowledge of the world she lived in beckoned and Vee heeded its call. This is how Vee learnt of Treek and his history. She feels as though Treek let Treasure Town down and ran in fear from the mystery dungeons over taking the world. She plans now to hunt him down and challenge him for the right to protect the world. Now, eight months after her initial arrival, Vee stands with the gift of her teacher on her determined brow, confidant in her narrow knowledge of the planet and assured by the ability to use many moves she never could have. Now, how does she shoot those webs?

ROLEPLAY EXAMPLE: Nu u :c
TEAM NAME: Team Punk Ass/Team Bottom Line

(I changed the order because shush, it's nicer this way)

Lol, alright. Pika, Nocive, Madcap, you're all accepted.
I'm gonna wait a week maximum for any other people to join in on the fun, and then we'll start!

EDITED BIO... SLOPPILY. I'm guessing that Maria was taken in the Kangaskhan's care right after the Storage was moved to the Secret Bazaar. It would kinda explain why Treasure Boxes would be left on such unstable shelves- being in a hurry to haul all the inventory in the shop.

NAME: Allen
GENDER: Male
SPECIES: Gallade (Technically, a Gallade can be level 20. Kirlia evolves at level 20, and you can use a dawn stone right then to evolve it)
PERSONALITY: Allen is a very friendly guy. He really likes to talk with other pokemon, and will help any pokemon in need, even if they are complete strangers to him. However, he seems to have a secret that he's hiding, as he gets very quiet when his history is ever brought up. However, when he gets his mind on something, like he suspects someone of something, it takes alot of fighting to change his mind about it. He will take any pokemon on if he needs to to protect someone. However, he has a great fear there will be a pokemon he won't be able to take down, and becuase of it, something bad will happen. He really likes to eat, and seems the friendliest at this time. When he is fighting, he is deadly serious, and his very stare could cut right into you if his blades didn't first. If you ever anger him, you will soon regret it, as he will not only try to fight you, but he will also yell like you have never heard anyone yell before. If something is bothering him, he will try to get alone so he can think things over by himself.
HISTORY: Allen does not like to talk about his past. (To be RPd)
APPEARANCE: Allen mostly looks like a normal gallade, except he has gold on the edge of the blades of his arms, and has a scar across his right eye.
ATTACKS:
- Leaf Blade
- Night Slash
- Confusion
- Double Team
- Fury Cutter
- Dual Chop
- Ice Punch
- Hyper Voice (Where do you think his yelling power comes from?)
ABILITY: Justified
ITEM: Lum Berry
ROLEPLAY EXAMPLE: Here it is. I didn't have much to choose from this site, so I decided on this one.TEAM NAME: hmm...this is an interesting one...how about team Celestial? It sounds sweet.

Well, it doesn't have to be from this site. If you have something else, feel free to post it; my criteria is only that it's a multi-RP post.

If his past is to be RP's, remember these few things:
After Treek and his imaginary friend saved the world, mystery dungeons appeared gradually until they became, in effect, one huge mystery dungeon.
It's been 16 months since everybody realized this and moved to the Secret Bazaar
There are - and always have been - approximately 80 people at the Bazaar, obviously showing that the bazaar is a lot bigger than the game depicts it.
The guild, similarly, has moved to the Bazaar, and only level 80s and 90s exist within it. Explorations only exist for the collection of resources.
Any 'murderers' or 'criminals' he may have found in his travels are probably too busy trying to survive inside mystery dungeons to care about your 'revenge', assuming that you're going with the generic route.
Your team members should know who you were during your stay in the Secret Bazaar, at least; you're a part of their team, after all.
It's been 6 months since Treek left, and two days since you and your team left.
You just found a human, whom the team assumes to be Treek's imaginary friend, Kyle.

Well, your character looks a bit generic (more so than others), but otherwise pretty good.

Don't worry, I have a history for him that won't have any problems with those facts.

BTW, when is this starting?
