    Looks good to go! Sorry I didn't see this, but I figured out why that was. When you posted I had been driving out of state and didn't have net for like a week after haha. Posts tend to get buried since we have so many threads. Have fun in the park! If you have any questions, let me or another ranger know!

    Name: Shoshana Geller (Shana for short)
    Age: 17
    Gender: Female
    Personality: The first word that comes to mind when describing Shana is spunky. She's always loved going on adventures with her parents and, be it camping, rock climbing, mountain biking, or other similar exploits. She'll charge headfirst into just about any situation without taking the time to think about the potential dangers, preferring to simply wing it and make it up as she goes along. She loves being out and about exploring the world almost as much as she hates sitting around doing nothing. School always bored her to death, and she can't stand having to wait or solve a puzzle. They typically frustrate her, as she would much rather continue moving ahead unhindered.
    Description: Shana has short, messy blue hair and similar blue eyes, and height-wise, she clocks around 5'6''. She typically wears a loose fitting tank top, comfortable jeans, and black boots that look worn from all the outdoorsy adventure stuff she loves. She keeps her Pokeballs on her belt, and the rest of her supplies in a black single strapped backpack slung over her left shoulder. Lumen, Shana's Luxray, is usually outside of its Pokeball. Lumen was her family pet as a Shinx and has accompanied her everywhere since she left home.
    Pokemon Captured: None lol
    Pokemon Natures:
    Luxray is Bold
    Reuniclus is Quiet
    Park Items: None lol

    Name: Eric
    Age: 20
    Gender: Male
    Personality: Eric has lived on both sides of the tracks. After a crippling fall from grace, his once wealthy family found themselves living in the slums they once poked fun at. As he was thrown into a new life, he became an expert of putting on facades to fit into his surroundings. During his childhood, he found solace in a self-imposed isolation. Eric has a hard shell, but get to know him and you will be pleasantly surprised by the man who hides behind the mask.
    Description: Tall and thin. Short to medium length dark brown hair. Medium length brown-almost-black beard, well trimmed. Bright blue eyes distract from an asymmetrical facial structure.
    Pokemon Captured: Styr (Magmar, Male, Starter), Brienne (Lairon, Female, Pokemart)
    Pokemon Natures: Styr (Serious), Brienne (Brave)
    Park Items: -

    Going to sign-up for a Beginner run.

    Trainer Name: Lowe
    Age: 20
    Gender: Male
    Personality: He comes from a small family and grew-up quickly, as a result he developed a rather serious attitude and is sometimes a cold man to the people around him, though not disrespectful. He often finds himself acting humorless and crass towards people as he tends to see them as careless. His demeanor changes around his pokèmon, whom he is very patient and doting towards.
    Description: A somewhat pale man of average height, with messy medium-length hair. Dresses casually but prefers to wear boots rather than sneakers, and almost always wears a black knitted sweater. Carries a set of glasses but rarely wears them even though he is far-sighted, which often allows Harry, his Mime Jr., to set up pranks and traps in his way.
    Park Items: Yet to be purchased.

    Pokemon:

    Try to put a little more here, especially for the description. What does he wear? Does he have different outfits for different seasons? Anything unusual about him, like a limp or an eye patch or something?

    Also, the Pokemon Captured section is for Pokemon you got from the Park and not ones you brought in. Pokemon Natures is for Pokemon you brought in.

    This looks okay! But be sure to add in the Pokemon Captured section too! Especially once you start catching stuff!

    Name: John
    Age: 14
    Gender: Male
    Personality: Calm. Shy around strangers, opens up to friends. Smart, but weak. Might seem cold, but has a good heart. Lived a normal life with a normal family, but was always dependent on others. Eventually, his parents sent him to his uncle's home, who was a Gym Leader until he retired. There, he learned how to take care of Pokemon and become independent. Once he found out about the National Park, his uncle was ecstatic to send John there so he could strengthen his bonds with Pokemon.
    Description: Tall, light-skinned. Very scrawny and thin. Physically unfit for... everything. He's so tall, he usually has to inch forward a little so people look at him properly eye to eye. (1.9 meters) Has to rely on his mind instead. Usually wears a green T-shirt or a polo with blue jeans. When it's cold, he also wears a (dark green) jacket. Carries a bag full of necessities (fresh water, food, matches, etc.) Dark brown hair and eyes. Sometimes stutters when nervous. Sort of sluggish.
    Pokemon Captured:
    Pokemon Natures: Found in stats.
    Park Items: Ditto.

    Name: Max
    Age: 13
    Gender: Male
    Personality: Very changing. Sometimes calm and gentle, sometimes happy and energetic. He doesn't have many friends (aside from Pokemon). He lives with his family in a big city and is training to become a Gym Leader. He cares about Pokemon very much and can develop strong bonds with them, but is scared from some Bug-types (Spinarak, Ariados, Pinsir..). National Park is one of his biggest destinations in spring. He went there to catch new Pokemon and find new friends.
    Description: Pretty tall (1,7 m) a bit fat. Always holding a Pokedex in his hand. Pretty smart. Wears jeans and T-shirt (Grey, Blue or Yellow), rarely wears blue hoodie. Really likes to wear dark grey and white cap with letter UN (stands for UNova) and wears it almost always, also wears a black scarf. Always. Caries a belt pack with some food and usable items. Brown hair and Green and Brown eyes. Have good regeneration ability and immunity (I'm not talking about some magic things like when something cut off your arms you grow another ones. I mean that i can't get sick easily and don't get scars from some injuries.).
    Captured Pokemon: Nothing
    Items: Nothing

    Looks good to go! When you decide Natures for your Pokemon, you can either keep the list here or in your stats. The same goes for items.

    Pokemon Captured, however, I'd prefer to track here since that's for Pokemon caught in the Park itself and needs to be easily accessible.

    You can keep a copy of it in your Trainer Stats, but it needs to stay here and not be deleted, and the Pokemon Captured from the Park portion needs to be updated HERE as well so we have an easy tracking method.

    Name: Haillys
    Age: 23
    Gender: Female
    Personality: A very helpful woman, and with a sake for adventure. She goes along pretty well with everyone in general, be it friends or strangers, and even towards her rivals despite being a bit cocky. Though she does have a bit of temper during battles, especially the thoughest ones, or when someone starts giving her too much trouble. She likes to travel to exotic places to find various species of pokemon, as well as other natural relics and know many different places. The National Park is full of those kinds of areas, which made her travel to the island every month.
    Description: Tall (at about 1,70m tall), with greenish eyes and a very long brown hair. Usually wears tall boots and socks, a pair of glovelettes, dark-blue shorts, and a blue tank top for warmer environments. In areas where such clothing isn't the best suited, she wears beige pants, a bluegreen shirt, a brown vest, a pair of gloves and regular boots. She always wears a pendant around her neck, as well as a poketch in her right wrist.

    I think the description portion is okay, but I'd like to know a little bit more about her personality. What you have is all about travel/environment--I'd like to see more about what her behavior is like. How does she act around people? Pokemon? Does she have odd habits? Does she get irked at some things?

    Edit: Should be good to go. Note that you didn't have to delete what you had before--you could've just added to it.

    Name: Henry
    Age: 14
    Gender: Male
    Personality: Quirky, curious and adventurous. He is able to adapt quickly to new environments, as well as being quite inconstant in his opinions and desires. He enjoys the company of people and Pokemon alike when he is happy, but doesn't speak much when he's not feeling well. Even though he is very distracted and forgetful, he pays attention to things that interest him. Lives in an unremarkable house with his mother, who encouraged him to go to the National Park to learn more about Pokemon and see new places.
    Description: Has an average height (1.7 m), is very thin and has a tanned skin. He is smart and agile . Usually wears a blue T-shirt, jeans and an orange jacket when it gets colder. His hair is dark brown and his eyes are of a greenish light brown.

    This app is nullified; this character was never used. Please see here for the new app.

    Name:
    Collin Njitrasz /ɲɪtɹʌɕ/¹
    Age: 19
    Gender: Male
    Backstory: Collin, a second-generation immigrant, was the third of five children. Born to Rjittel Kjúsztér and Sjavech Njitrasz² after their move to the Pokémon world, he grew up learning about linguistics and has a dream to figure out what exactly the language of Pokémon is.
    Personality: Book smart. A calm, collected individual. Friendly once you get to know him. He's not afraid to let his Pokémon fight, but will protect them if necessary. Speaks fluent English, Lojban and Citonalic³, and sometimes mumbles to himself in Citonalic when he's deeply thinking. Pet peeves include people insulting his homeland of Citonia.
    Description: Black hair and gray eyes, slight tan, around 175 cm tall when standing straight, rather thin but not underweight, usually wears a black jacket over a white shirt and black pants⁴ and a black sling bag or backpack (depending on how much he needs to carry). Stands straight most of the time.
    Pokémon Captured:
    N/A
    Pokémon Natures:

    Renata / Ralts (F, Quirky)
    Allen / Eevee (M, Calm)
    Park Items: None
    Stats: Here

    ¹ɲ: Spanish ñ (palatal/palatalized n); ɕ: consonant in Mandarin Chinese 西 xī or Japanese し shi (palatalized "sh"); orthography taken from my conlang
    ²Pronunciations: /ɹʲitel kʲʊɕtəɹ/ and /ɕʌvex ɲɪtɹʌɕ/, again, orthography from my conlang
    ³Citonalic: My own conlang. Because Citonalic is not spoken in the Pokémon world, Pokémon have difficulty understanding it. However, Collin's Pokémon have a basic understanding of it. If you need a translation, tell me.
    ⁴Outfit: Collin usually wears black, white or gray clothing. During summer, he wears a white shirt over black shorts.

    Okay, this looks acceptable, but I sort of want a little more description. How does this character hold himself stance-wise? Does he carry anything with him?

    This one feels just a little bit sparse and could use a couple more details. Is there a little more you could add to both sections? Like what about posture? Alternate weather outfits? Does he have a backpack or anything else with him? Odd trinkets?

    What does he do in his spare time? Does he have any weird quirks? What about habits, like jittery leg syndrome or something? What does this character do when he's antagonized? What counts as antagonizing? Where is his threshold for tolerance?

    I do like the phonetics though!

    @W32Coravint

    Okay, seems good to go now, although I would still prefer if more were added XD

    Remember that you can come back later and add more details too as you think of new things and go on runs and stuff.

    Name
    Randel Harison​
    Age
    25​
    Gender
    Male​
    Personality
    Randel has always been a cheerful person, but never the point of it coming off as honey-like. He's always tried his best to give everything he had towards helping others and himself, be it just taking that one step to become a stronger person, physically or mentally, or aiding PokeHomes when it comes to restoring damaged habitats. Though, he does have his moments, where something does get under his skin or rub him the wrong way, but he does his best to try to let though feeling pass, even if does show on his face and body.​
    Description
    Randal is a well bodied person without it showing up as massive musscles, huge pecs, or even a 6 pack. In addition, his about 6 foot tall slightly tanned body is covered a few marks and bruises, often as a result of helping others out and forgetting to take care of himself first. He has long, dark blond hair that often runs either down to just barely at the top of his neck or down to the middle of his back as he tends to let it grow before getting it cut for cancer.​
    Captured Pokemon
    (None)
    Other Pokemon
    Blazer the Combusken - M - Rash
    Blue Pyro the Shelgon - M - Hardy
    Lila the Cradily - F - Bold
    Lom Dovah the Magikarp - F - Lax​
