Giratina's Wrath - Signups, Closed!
Forum-Index → Roleplay → RP Sign-up → Giratina's Wrath - Signups, Closed!You live in a town called Torterra Town, a village tucked in a basin in a mountain range, with a lot of history with the war. The nearby mountain, Mount Eternal, is the tallest mountain in the world, and is where Arceus was said to reside, though that was just a myth. Either way, Girantina intended to destroy Arceus and the mountain there, telling him that if he didn’t show up for a fight, he would have his massive amount of forces destroy the remaining towns immediately. However, Girantina wasn’t counting on pokemon from all over the world traveling to the mountain, as well as legendary pokemon, to take on his army. All of the pokemon worked together to protect their home, and many died defending it, including many of the legendaries. However, their deaths were not in vain, as the pokemon managed to hold off Giratina's army so that they couldn’t attack Arceus, as the creator pokemon himself took down Giratina, before ascending back into the heavens, tired from the fight. Giratina was locked back in the distortion realm and chained back up.
Exhausted, the pokemon of the world rebuilt their towns, and remembered the reason Giratina gained so many followers: Pokemon were being unfair and cruel. They tried and remembered to not let that happen again. They’d all learned a lesson. They made many books and artworks depicting the fight as a reminder. However, a century later, the pokemon of this generation have mostly forgotten this, or don’t care much about it. But, all in all, the world is in a much better state than it was after Giratina’s attack.
You’ve grown up in Torterra Town your whole life, and have learned a lot about this historic battle. Recently, the town Xatu has been having horrible visions and dreams of a second battle. No one knows if it will really happen, but the town is very traditional, and most pokemon think that it's better to be safe than sorry. You, yourself, have also been having strange dreams lately… The citizens of Torterra Town are planning to discuss the Xatu visions tomorrow, and everyone in town is worried that something terrible will happen…
Gonna let you guys know in advance, the plot centers in your characters quite a bit, so I’ll probably have some sort of plan in mind for them… which might slightly contradict your own, but it's a cool plan, I promise, and it won’t ruin most other plans you’ll have for your character, too.
Also, I’ll be the narrator in this RP, and I’ll help describe the surroundings, and I’ll also RP the NPCs.
Also, also, since I don’t want you to feel any time constraint filling in the form (lol), just pal pad me the following in advance to join the list of people in the rp:
Hey Lucario! Can I join your new rp? Thx! Sincerely, me.
I’ll let you know if people beat you to it or not. 5 people max, thx! Once I’ve approved, you can finish off and fill out the form.

Torterra Town - Your home and
starting town. Known for the last battle against giratina, and it’s
historical significance in the war. It has a town hall, many
houses, a diner, a library and a park, as well as a giant mural
depicting the battle against Giratina's army on a cliff wall. It’s
guardian pokemon, sort of a mascot, is Arceus, of course.
Mount Eternal - The actual site of the battle with Giratina. There are many historical sites on it, which are carefully guarded, and are not allowed to be touched. You’re allowed to look, though!
The Arbok Pit - A busy trading desert town centered around an oasis. It’s known for its three fountains, where the pokemon Raikou, Entei and Suicune are thought to reside, though you must brave the sandstorms to reach the fountains. It has a bazaar and a well known tavern, and it’s guardian mascot pokemon are the Legendary Dogs.
Mantyke City - A seaside city, homes to a lot of different pokemon. It was rebuilt after the war to become the bustling metropolis it is now. However, it’s a pretty shady place, where you can find all sorts of pokemon, looking for deals and trades. It’s near the place where Giratina’s army is said to have emerged from the distortion world. Azelf, Uxie and Mespirit are said to live in nearby caves.
The Vale of Ho-oh - A little town near the Burned Tower, it’s main attraction. It’s quite small and not very well known. Their guardian pokemon is Ho-oh, and they like to tell the story of Raikou, Entei and Suicune’s creation here.
The Burned Tower - The site where Raikou, Entei and Suicune were said to have died as eeveelutions and made again as legendary pokemon by Ho-oh.
The Password - To see if you actually read all of the Locations and Characters, as well as your favourite legendary, include your favourite pokemon in the password tool! Or if you don’t have a favourite, just one that you like.
The Distortion World - Girantina’s realm. His followers can enter and exit it… no one knows how. Girantina might use his power to whisper to you in your dreams, to try and convince you to join his army. If you do, you might gain access to this place. The only other way to access it is if you are captured by Giratina’s minions, and imprisoned here. The laws of physics are especially wonky here.

Madison - A hard working,
studious riolu. She always does her best, and is very logical. She
can be distrusting of pokemon she just met, but very loyal once you
make her a good friend. She doesn’t know what she wants to do with
her life. She’s from the Arbok Pit.
Lucas - A chivalrous litten, who hates when others do something hurtful to others, and will go to great lengths to stop them. When he’s not angry at someone, he has a good sense of humor, and is a really genuine guy.
Daren - A mischievous Purloin who really just cares about doing things for fun and enjoyment. He doesn’t care much about others, cause he thinks no one really cares about him.
Phoios - A somewhat shy Xatu, who often receives prophetic dreams. She’s really caring about everyone in town, and will often downplay her own troubles to help others.
Connor - A wise Stoutland, who is the town’s unofficial leader. He also cares about everyone, though can be strict about following rules. He is quite old, and has seen a lot.

I live in the Pacific Timezone for reference. Again, let's start with 5 dedicated people max, as this RP is really character driven, and I don’t want to have too many (It’s also super hard and confusing with more than 5 or even 1 sometimes XD for me at least). Thanks, all!
Name: Kiwi
Species: Vaporeon
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Appearance: Normal vaporeon, a little extra floof on her head
Backstory: She once put together a rescue team, but they aren't as active now, mostly they all try to live a normal life.
Personality: Reserved, quiet. Used to be a natural leader, and still is, wanting the best for the team, but speaks up less, despite being a constant critic, judging the every move of the pokemon around her. Due to the fact that she doesn't do hero stuff anymore, she pays less attention
Other: Reshiram! Vulpix
Questions: This is okay, right? What were the password issues?
(Also, this is the same Kiwi from my comic, like same personality and stuff, just from an alt universe)
@BlackReshiram, might need to relook that backstory, the war was 100 years ago and pretty much no pokemon from that time are alive (except some legendaries), and also, password issues
Name: Summer
Species: Volcarona
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Appearance: Regular Volcarona
Backstory: She had a fairly normal family and life. Her parents weren’t big fans of violence, and she learned from them.
Personality: Summer is a Pacifist. If possible, she wouldn’t fight at all. She never strikes out in anger and distances herself from those who do. She thinks that the pokemon following Giratina have a point, but they should have gotten it across in a less violent way.
Other: I love Reshiram, but I like Vaporeon more. Maybe it should be considered a legendary since it’s apparently what Suicune once was?
Questions: Try not to take my question in Others seriously since I was trying to work in the password inconspicuously?
PH time +8 hours. She/Her pronouns.

Name: Jericho
Species: Croagunk
Age: 13
Gender: Male
Appearance: He looks like your typical croagunk, but he wears dark goggles as his eyes are fairly sensitive to light. He has a large jagged scar travelling across his cheek.
Backstory: As a child he decided he wanted to form his own adventure team. Of course, being the young Croagunk he was he threw together a small group and they left out on their first adventure. While exploring and adventuring they got a little rowdy and started to mess around. A rather large rock had come loose above them and it fell down, cutting Jericho's cheek, leaving the scar. He panicked and ran right back home, but his small group had been left behind and got lost. An adventure team had only managed to bring back about half of his "adventure party".
Personality: Jericho is a little jumpy and very non-confrontational. He doesn't really talk much anymore, opting to communicate through his body language and expression. He sometimes might experiences a burst of his old energy, but for the most part he keeps to himself and doesn't venture out much anymore.
Other: Reshiram, but Pawniard is pretty cool!
Questions: I hope his age is okay? I could also choose another pokemon if it makes things easier

Name: Arch
Species: Arcanine
Age: 11
Gender: female
Appearance: A shiny Archanine
Backstory: Her quiet determination has always helped her. She puts her friends before herself always. Her parents were very supportive of her... before they disappeared. Arch's parents were thought to have been captured or to have moved to a far away location. The lack of a father and a mother figure didn't effect Arch's positivity.
Personality: Friendly, Caring, Kind, Emphatic, Compassionate
Other: Azelf & Mesprit & Vulpix
Questions: This will be finished later, is that okay?
