GLORY ROW

Welcome to Glory Row, a Pokémon RP. This, like the source material, revolves around the concept of using magical pets to beat up other people's pets to steal their money.

You play a Trainer, and have all the things that come with being one. However, unlike the source material, Pokémon training has its limits. Your character has the legal right to have up to six Pokémon, something only the most qualified can have in society.

Beyond that caveat, this world operates much like you would expect a Pokémon world to; people breed, battle, have contests, and work in fields related to them. In the beginning, your Trainer has come to participate in the Glory Row Festival - a gathering for people to have fun, battle, trade, and generally have a great time.

In short, the system is an in-universe technology that makes it so that a person can only capture a certain number of Pokémon based on whatever their limit is. When a PokéBall is used and captures a Pokémon, it gets registered. If you reach your maximum, all PokéBalls attempted to be registered will not work for the person.

There isn't a very public criteria for how to raise your maximum, but social status definitely factors into it.

The system is a legal thing; it was with the intention to stop plucky ten year olds and people of less scruples from having a full team of six monsters of absolute destruction.

General rules of thumb:
  • You can catch up to a certain amount. Anything beyond that amount can't be caught or trained.
  • The system is definitely an indicator of social status. 1 is the lowest, 6 is the highest, officially.
  • Pokémon caught with the registered PokéBalls are almost invariably grow quicker and can become far more powerful than both wild and other types of Pokémon.

  • All BMGf rules, and Roleplaying Section, rules apply here.
  • If you want to make an antagonistic character, you're free to.
  • No godmodding or auto-hitting.
  • No Legendaries. Please.

Name: Michael Ayers
Age: 26
Sex: male

Appearance: Michael is about six feet tall and has a slightly athletic build, close-cropped medium length brown hair, brown eyes, and a light beard. He wears a plain red long-sleeved shirt and red pants. He also has red travelling boots, which stop about a couple inches below his calves, and red fingerless gloves. And completing his look is a deep crimson longcoat with lighter red trim (think of Kirito's longcoat in the Aincrad arc of Sword Art Online, but red instead of black).

Larvesta; male; Flame Body
Salandit; female; Corrosion

Other: only uses Fire types

And if anyone has any ideas for my third Pokémon, the only thing I need to mention is no type overlap (besides fire, naturally) and no starters.

Name: Miguel Torres

Age: 22

Sex: Male

Appearance: Miguel has long short, slightly messy black hair, unkempt due to his lack of care for it, prompting him to have to hide with a black beanie given to him by his brother. Clothing wise he tends to prefer loose and casual clothing and has a generally sucky fashion sense, all couple with an affinity for a hoodie that his mom bought for him when he was younger which was three sizes too big but now fits perfectly. He has tanned skin and honey brown eyes.

Capacity: 2

Pokemon:

Name: Flare
Species: Growlithe
Gender: Female
Ability: Flash Fire

Name: Icarus
Species: Murkrow
Gender: Male
Ability: Insomnia

Other: Miguel hails from Lago City in the region of Kali which is at the south of Unova. Due to his lack of a pokeball belt he keeps one pokeball in his hoodie’s pocket (or one of his pants’ pockets if he isn’t wearing the hoodie) and the other hidden inside his beanie.

If you aren't definitively reserving, asking a question, or posting a sign up, do not post in a sign up thread. Once you do any of those, you're free to enter discussion. This goes for everyone.
 
Ok.
One quick question.
Can someone start with an Egg that hatches later?
 
@Anime Psyclone

As long as your capacity allows you to have one active Pokemon and egg. After the egg hatches, it needs to be in a ball or else you'll run into some problems with the po-po.

Basically, have a capacity of 2-3, and one of them can be an egg.
