Welcome To Johto!
__A Semi-Literate, Pokémon Trainer RoleplayThe region also happens to be home to you!
In the past 20 years, there have been many changes to the region:
Pokémon from far away regions have been discovered taking over the habitats of the Native Species most likely due to Pokémon Contests introduced in the Hoenn Region making their way to Johto and advancements in travel. New Gym Leaders have risen and now take the places of some of the previous ones who now serve as Elite Four Members or are pursuing other careers. Many advancements in technology allows trainer to stay in-touch with one another with PokéPhones with an installed Pokédex Feature, eliminating the use of Pokedexes. The previously defeated Team Rocket reemerges with two new leaders, former Team Rocket Grunts Jessie & James, who have traveled the Pokémon-World and gotten stronger. New Cities have been created to compensate for a loss of space with the growing population, eliminating some previous Routes or shortening them.
You, however, have a path to follow and that path is yours to shape...
You can be a New Trainer just starting out their journey, not necessarily from the Johto region but you're new to the region and learning the ropes of Pokémon Training. You can choose to take on the Gyms, earn the 8 badges and enter the Indigo League; Try out your performing skills and dazzling abilities in Pokémon Contests to enter the Johto Grand Festival; Take a more scientific route and research Pokémon, taking notes of their moves, abilities, and raising them to help out Professor Elm's studies; or, of course, you can choose more than one of these.
You can be a Team Rocket Grunt who is fairly new at the whole Pokémon Training business and takes orders from Jessie & James in stealing powerful Pokémon in order to gain more power and take over the Pokémon World.
There are a few of us who are Veteran Trainers who are older, much more experienced trainers who may or may not have finished their journey through Johto but should be relatively close towards the end of it. With the rebirth of Team Rocket, you now choose between joining Professor Elm and protecting Johto from the evil organization, joining Team Rocket as a Team Rocket Elite Member or remaining neutral and basically sitting back at home though you can help whichever side as needed.
Which is the path you will choose?

Ivan was asleep. He was having an odd dream. In the dream, he was in the middle of nowhere, floating in a dark void. Suddenly, he heard screams of his mother and yelling from his father. The pitch black void was slowly turning green, and while all the voices stopped screaming, an annoying sound was getting louder and louder. Until he woke up.
His alarm clock was doing the noise. Just as Ivan woke up, Chespin decided to turn it off. Inkay was sitting right next to Ivan, staring at the window, but turning to him once he wakened. Getting up, Ivan looked around his new room. There was almost nothing on it, besides boxes, a table and a closet. Ivan had mixed feelings. A journey, yay! Its forced, ow. Shrugging it off, Ivan literally entered the closet to change his clothes.

To his distress, it didn't work. Instead of getting unstuck, he became even more trapped in the pile. He managed to wriggle out of Agnis's wings, but getting out without waking them up would be hard. Their Poké Balls were on the other side of the room, so that made it even more difficult.
He poked his Serperior, who unconsciously moved his tail. Lawrence grinned and got out of bed and got changed. He had chosen a white shirt under a black jacket. He chose a gray scarf to go with. He put on his signature glasses and was about to wake his Pokémon when he remembered. He's still in his pajama pants! He quickly changed into some tan jean shorts and collected his items.

She yawned loudly before dragging herself out of bed and headed towards the bathroom in her new home, knocking on Aditsan's door as she passed his room on the way.
"Wake up, Aditsan!" she shouted as she closed the bathroom door and started the shower.
Aditsan's Froakie smirked at the sound of Avery knocking on the door, though remained motionless on Aditsan's chest. Aditsan groaned as Avery shouted again from downstairs and sat up, Froakie sliding off his body. "Hey there, Boss." he mumbled, the Water-type crying its name in response.
After showering, Avery dressed herself in a strapless romper. She opened the bathroom door and signaled her twin. Aditsan walked in the bathroom wearing a football jersey and jeans and brushed his teeth while his twin sister perfected her signature high pony. Avery quickly applied shiny lipgloss and fixed her bangs and looked at Aditsan, who nodded at her.
"Mom, Dad. We're headed out to Professor Elm's!" Aditsan told his parents who responded wishing the twins luck.
Avery smiled as she slipped on tan wedges, Aditsan tying his shoelaces in a butterfly-like style, sighed and walked out of the house together with his sister and their partners beside them.

Flick had taken it upon himself to give the girl a vine whip, obviously agitated by the rude awakening.
"Shoot... Sorry bud, but that hurt" Skyler muttered, rubbing her cheek lightly with the back of her hand and giving the Ivysaur a glare. He snorted and began walking towards the kitchen.
Sky grabbed a pair of jean shorts and a black tank top and tossed them on quickly. She then tiredly stumbled to her vanity and used the mirror to throw her hair up in a messy bun. After trying a few times to get it right, the girl made her way into the kitchen with Flick.
"Hey Flick go get some baskets, we gotta start trying to sell some berries today" Skyler pointed towards the baskets on the table and Flick made his way over, grabbing two baskets using his vines.

Ivan got out of the closet, with his casual, which was also his formal suit on. He looked over to his bed, where Chespin and Inkay were looking over to the window. "Look, guys." He said in a happy-yet-sad tone. "None of us want to be here. But since we are stuck here, we might as well just go." Chespin felt a bit happier, and Inkay looked over to the stand with an alarm clock and two Pokeballs. Ivan began to walk downstairs with the two 'mons after him.
The kitchen was small. It was full of boxes and there was more rooms there. His father was drinking coffee, and looking at something in his laptop and cellphone. He had spiky black-grey hair. "Hi dad." Ivan said, not really happy. "Oh. Hi Ivan."
Thats not how he used to greet Ivan 4 years ago. Seems like he doesn't wants a family anymore.
Ivan grabbed a backpack and his cellphone that were on the table. "Uh. See ya, dad. I will probs come back once I get a pokemon with Teleport. No promises."
"Uh, okay. Try to come back with news or something. And don't forget why we're here in the first place." His dad said. "Ugh, fine. Bye." Ivan dashed ouut of the house, even though his father wanted to say something to him.

"Tamarin," Lawrence said. Tamarin stayed in place while Agnis searched for her scarf. The Volcarona was unfortunately easy to freeze up when cold. She flew out of the bathroom suddenly, with her scarf covering her eyes. Lawrence had walked back to the bed and was trying to drag Tamarin off. The Serperior was flicking his tongue in and out and not anything else.
Agnis flew over and Flamethrower began to spark by where her mouth would be. Tamarin let out a terrified hiss and slithered down. The Volcarona closed her eyes, letting out satisfied hums. "Alright, that's enough. Let's go. Tamarin, return." Lawrence and Agnis went downstairs and the trainer returned the hotel key.
"Agnis, use Fly! Get us to Cherrygrove City." He climbed onto Agnis's back and the two disappeared into the sunrise.

After waving good-bye to her family, she walked down to Professor Elm's house.

"Hopefully someone will trade us pokeballs for these!" Skyler smiled and picked up both baskets,
grunting as she felt how heavy they actually were. "Come on, towns this way" She smiled and pointed in front of her towards the path that lead into town. Flick looked at her and then bounded off towards town, Sky following close at his heels.

The pair walked on a straight, paved path through an open forest with light coming in from every direction up to the Professor's Lab, encountering some wild Pokemon on the way.
"Hey, Aves, you can go on ahead, Boss and I are gonna train a bit and maybe catch a new Pokemon or two while we're here." Aditsan informed his sister, talking a few steps back from her.
"But the Professor's expecting us at a certain time..." Avery pointed out.
"I shouldn't be that long!" he responded, running off with his Froakie skipping behind him.
Avery rolled her eyes and mumbled a few words under her breath, Fennekin mimicking her actions which made Avery smile.
"I guess we could walk a bit slower because knowing my brother, he'll be gone for a while..." the young trainer told the Fox Pokemon.
At the moment, both the twins encountered a Pokemon in their separate locations though the same species, an Eevee. The Eevee Aditsan encountered had longer fur on the top of its head than most Eevee whereas the Eevee Avery encountered had a bushier tail and collar.
"Let's catch it!" the twins said in unison.
"Fennekin, use Scratch!"
"Boss, Pound attack!"
Fennekin charged at the Evolution Pokemon and extended her claws, swiping her left paw at its face while Froakie dashed at the Eevee before it and swung his hand at it.
The Eevee fighting Avery and her Fennekin attacked with Swift and the Eevee fighting Aditsan and his Froakie charged with a tackle, both landing direct hits.
"Ember!" "Bubble!"
...
After a few more turns exchanging moves, Avery and Aditsan both attempted to throw a Pokeball at the Evolution Pokemon, encasing it in a Pokeball and marking their first capture each.

Ivan cheered up a bit, and walked over to the lab, which was a really small amount of steps away. As he opened the door, he and his 'mons looked over to a girl doing something under a tree. Looking off, he entered the lab.

The man at the counter seemed to be uninterested in anything, he was halfheartedly swiping through his pokephone, he wasn't even watching the store. Sky gathered up her courage and made her way up to the counter, placing the two baskets down on it. The man looked up from his pokephone and squinted at Sky and the baskets, a puzzled look dancing across his face.
"I-is there anyway.. that I could..." Sky paused for a moment, the way the man looked at her like she was insane made her uncomfortable, but after a little more mental support she continued, "trade these berries for some pokeballs?"
The man chuckled a bit and muttered a curt "sure". He took the baskets and weighed them and then handed 10 Pokeballs, and one premier ball, to Skyler. She smiled excitedly and thanked the man,
nearly tripping on her way out the door. Flick followed close behind, also excited at the prospect of a new pokemon friend.

Agnis let out a terrified squeak. "That's what I thought." But Lawrence began to laugh as his Volcarona flew in small circles. "Alright, Tamarin come out." The Serperior was sent out, looking tired. "Let's head to New Bark." Lawrence waved his hand for his Pokemon to follow.
As he stepped into Route 29, he was greeted by a pack of Sentret running past. One tried to trip the trainer, but stopped when Tamarin's tail began to glow green, forming a sword. "Tamarin, don't do it." The Serperior didn't listen, instead chasing the fleeing Sentret. He launched into the air and hit its side with the now leaf-covered blade. Why is he attacking? More specifically, with Leaf Blade? Lawrence thought.
He normally goes for Dragon Tail if looking for a strong attack.
