Name: Petra (spectra) Rumintov
Age: 16
(I'm a trainer with no class RIMSHOT!)
Appearance:
Personality: Spectra is an intellectual and enthusiastic trainer with a bit of a loony streak. She can be rather dark in her musings, but isn't the sort to brood unless the day calls for it. She takes several interests, which is how she became involved with Pokemon in the first place. Though she wonders why they are compelled to fight, or rather, promted to do so, she does train with them in something of their select skills, (par example: Misdreavus- mysticism, Oddish- gardening and herbological persuits) She finds this to be not only a bonding experience for her and her pokemon, but one of great mental stimulation.
On a more negative train of thought, sometimes she can be hyper-curious and her fuse is a little shorter than one might expect in a scholar.
Brief Backstory:
Petra grew up in a home that wasn't very encouraging of outside persuits, particularly Pokemon battles. Her mother even deemed them an unfair and cruel bloodsport. For a while, this was how Petra saw them as well. Until she met Master David, whose passionate and caring relationship with his pokemon inspired her to study the spectacle at his "gym", which was technically not certified, but mroe of a public rec-center that dealt in pokemon care and battling. It was from there she began her journey.
Her first capture was a rather unconventional one. In fact, it was more of an accident. Petra, while not too far from her home town, was caught in a severe thunderstorm and was forced- nay- had the privalage to take shelter in an abandoned house. The place was fairly large but in extreme disrepair. It was there that she discovered a large congragation of ghost pokemon. Most of them either ignored her or attempted to taunt, trick and generally scare the hell out of her, but she was more astonished and "in love" than frightened.
Here, she met Ginger. A shiny Misdreavus who was relatively okay with her presance. She'd never seen a shiny pokemon before and heard that they were quite rare. So to find one tucked among the other ghostly monsters lurking in the shelter she'd chosen was a miraculum. By offering her last bit of bread and cheese she had in her napsack, she convinced Ginger to stick around and follow her on her way. Eventually the two of them bonded over their love of dark places, classical music and scaring people to death.
Ginger became an effective partner in the capture of a few new friends: an oddish, a torchic and a roselia.
Equipment: I'm really not sure... I haven't played the games enough to know...
Team:
Name: Ginger
Species: Shiny Misdreavus
Level: 17
Personality: The aggrivated motherly figure of the group. Since she is the most evolved pokemon on the team, the task of "raising" the others goes to her. She begrudgingly keeps them out of harms way and attempts to instruct them in life's labors. This is particularly difficult because none of them are her pokemon type and therefore don't experience life as she does. Not to mention she has very little patience. This is a trait that often times puts her in combative situations with Petra and others on her team.

Growl
Astonish
psywave
confuse ray

Pokemon 3:
Name: Thomas the Torchic (yes, that is his full name)
Species:Torchic
Level: 15
Personality: An extremely childish, intantile and sometimes "bratty" little guy who would much prefer to play with toys than do anything else. (except maybe cuddle) When one manages to get him into a battle, he does develope focus and can lay down a fair fight. Thomas feels that he must be the center of Petra's world when he is out of the pokeball and becomes very jealous and aggressive when not payed attention to. Holding him seems to calm him significantly, but there have been times when Petra has become so fed- up that she'll put him down and walk away. This never goes for ery long as things tend to be burnt, scratched, pecked, ect.
Notable Characteristics: nothing physically unusual.
Known Moves:
ember
focus energy
scratch
growl

Alright, sorry that's so long this far, but please let me know if I need to add or chance anything. I really wasn't sure what you meant by "aquired", but if you want me to write a blurb about how I captured each of them than please let me know and I'll go back and do that. I'm not very familiar with the game mechanics, having only played the card game and watched the show, so please be patient with me and I'll learn as quickly as possible.
I can't wait to get this under-way. I know I personally am not familiar with any of the pokemon from the Univa(sp) region and would just prefer Kanto and Joto. I'm wondering if we shouldn't form some profiles and maybe figure out who is what in the group or if we're all even in the same group. I suppose we could also try a pokemon Mystery dungeon kind of game as well where we're actually the pokemon and do battle with other pokemon that we come accross. Kind of like D&D, only with pokemon. I am most definately not trying to take control of the rp, but thought I'd throw some stuff out there to get the ball rolling.
