The basic premise:

In a fantastic Pokeworld, minstrel Brock of Argenta (the fantastic equivalent of Pewter City in this world) was summoned by the wizard Lysandre to retrieve the legendary Celestial Harp of Rainbows in return for some mystical items. But as Brock was on his way to the cave where the harp was hidden, Meloetta appeared to him to warn him that Lysandre wanted to use the harp to raise up an army of undead and ghost Pokemon, and destroy the world. Instead, she directed him to gather four other adventurers, assemble the eight jewel shards hidden in eight well guarded elemental labyrinths, and then use the powered up harp to defeat Lysandre before he can carry out his evil plot.

Brock was shaken by this news, and immediately returned to Argenta to ask any and all adventurers to help him on an adventure of a lifetime.

You play the role of one of the four adventurers that responded to Brock's plea for help--will you and Brock succeed in defeating Lysandre?

Are you still trying for this? It's just that it's been almost a month with no replies. Eh, If not tell me, if so here's a character:

Name: Rogan Stallrin
Age: 16
Appearance: A muscly dude, with a large number of scars from his fighting career. He generally goes around in light clothing to maximise his mobility, pants, and an open shirt.
Class: Fighter
Known abilities: Healing Sky Light, Azure Dragon's Fury, Golem Fist
Personality/Known History: Born into a poor farming family, Rogan began training as a Fighter as soon as he was old enough in order to win his family money in the combat circuit. It wasn't until he had his first couple of fights though, that he realised he loved to fight, he was still winning the money for his family, but he was now fighting more more; the sheer thrill of it. Rogan has a strong sense of honour and justice, he can't stand dishonourable conduct, in the ring or out. What this wizard is doing? Unforgivable. He joined Brock's quest in order to make Lysandre pay for what he's trying to do (But also because he might find treasure to sell for his family.
Inventory: Leather Knuckle (The basic variety of knuckle), Smelling Salts (can provide a small recovery of HP at the cost of a drop in all stats as the rush wears off in a few turns) x2
 
Not quite my cup of tea but I did want to drop by and say that I liked the direction this was headed in.
