National Park Sign Up

Hi, you two! I've talked about your apps below, but I just wanted to welcome you both to the URPG! Thanks so much for giving us a try!

Hi, welcome to URPG! We're so happy to have you!

So the "Pokemon Captured" form is for the Pokemon that you've captured inside of the Park. So for now, you wouldn't have any captured Pokemon!

Under Pokemon Natures, you should list your individual Pokemon and their natures that you plan on bringing in. So you'd put "Lyra the Snivy - Hasty, Nickname the Charmander - Bold," or something similar!

I think I'd like to see a little more of Mylena's personality. Can you describe how she's friendly? In what areas is she creative? Does her impulsiveness get her in trouble sometimes? Maybe give us a little more insight to how she reacts to certain situations, or to Pokemon! A little bit more to visualize her would help, too. Is she tall? Lanky? Atheltic? Average? I love that you described what she wears, but maybe describing her body type a little more would help us visualize. Does she have anything that says she's a Trainer? A belt with her Pokeballs, or maybe a bag?

I'm excited to have you in the Park! Edit your post and just ping me (@K'sariya ) or send me a PM when you've made some changes and I'll be happy to approve it! Please feel free to PM me with questions, too!

Hi! Welcome to you too, hope you're finding your way around in the URPG!

As I told MinecraftFan, the "Pokemon Captured" section is for Pokemon you've captured inside of the park, so you would have that as "none" right now.

If I could get a tiny bit more on his appearance and personality, that would bring your app right up to perfect. How does he feel about Pokemon? About being a Trainer or whatever else he might be? Is he tall? Skinny? Bulky? Muscular? A last little bit on how his stature compares to others would be perfect, and then you'll be accepted!

I'm excited to have you in the Park! Edit your post and just ping me (@K'sariya ) or send me a PM when you've made some changes and I'll be happy to approve it! Please feel free to PM me with questions, too!

Thank you both!

Hey can I get a uh... Ranger character so I can maybe do Ranger things someday.
Pokemon will be updated as I evolve the team I have planned for her!

Name: Margo Sterling.
Age: 26.
Gender: Female.
Personality: A thoughtful, quiet sort, Margo is the type of person who keeps a level head in nearly all situations. While she’s cautious and shy, she can be very friendly once you get to know her, and likes most people so long as they respect her space. She’s used to Pokemon battling and surviving in the wild - while she never managed to grab hold of the Champion title, she’s earned all of Hoenn’s eight badges, and she can hold her own against most Trainers and Pokemon. The National Park drew her right away due to its variety of Pokemon and people. Working as a Ranger is a good fit for her - she gets to help other Trainers on their journeys and explore these strange new wilds.
Description: Overall, Margo looks pretty unassuming. Her 5’6” height isn’t very impressive; she’s a bit on the chubby side, but not extremely overweight, either. Her hair and eyes are black and her skin is dark tan, characteristic of a native of Pacifidlog, Hoenn. She tends to wear green, and dresses warmly and practically. She has a pretty face, with gentle, rounded features and a proclivity towards a contented smile. The brown canvas bag she slings over her shoulder is weatherbeaten, heavy, and bedecked with the Hoenn badges she’s earned.
Pokemon: Undertow/Swampert/M/Bold, Spark/Manectric/F/Hardy, Kayla/Togekiss/F/Gentle, Roswell/Metagross/X/Modest, Pixel/A-Ninetales/F/Bashful, Sekhmet/Drapion/F/Sassy.

 

Time to make a Ranger Character!

Name: Oliver Haralson
Male
24 years old

Personality: Best described as "zealous," Oliver puts his heart and soul into the National Park. Most of the time these duties include simple tasks such as tending to the Botanical Gardens and making sure the Abandoned Power Plant still has all the lights working, but immediately runs into high gear when a visitor schedules a trip, scrambling to prepare all sorts of activities and plans for the excursion. In general, he's highly animated, talking loudly and waving his arms around as he walks juuust a bit too fast for a casual pace. He's frankly garbage when it comes to battles and dropped out of the league only about a month after joining, but his knowledge of wild Pokémon's habits make him well-suited to commentary. Wearing his heart on his sleeve, he shows joy and anxiousness in equal measures as he tries to uphold the ideals of his hero Joseph Farnsworth, who tamed this wilderness and made it not just inhabitable, but beautiful.

Appearance: Oliver stands a little under 6 feet, but his ramrod posture and jumpy movements tend to make him seem taller than he is. While on duty, he always wears one of the ancient orange-and-black National Park Personnel uniforms he dug out and dusted off from an old outpost backroom. His cropped reddish-brown hair is usually obscured by one of his various hats, the only personal or mutable factor of his wardrobe. He's often carrying a backpack full of supplies, though before most of his Park Runs he sets up a campsite or two in advance somewhere along the trail. Clipped to his belt is a personal mike used to radio to base in emergencies, but mostly to broadcast about anything he thinks is cool.

Pokemon:

Bolin: Aggron, M, Jolly

Schopenhauer: Armaldo, F, Relaxed

Leah: Galvantula, F, Careful

Jareth: Espeon, M, Calm

 

Both of you are good to go! Congrats again on becoming Rangers!

 

Name: Michael
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Personality: Michael is a kind and serious person, who would gladly help out anyone in need. He's aware of when someone tries to take advantage of him and will attempt to walk away to avoid a conflict. He can also be quite snarky at times and also loves to use bad puns. He also tends to be a bit stubborn and doesn't like to change the way he does some things when his own methods work for him. And although he's almost always calm and can usually shrug off anger, when he does get really angry, he has trouble controlling his temper.
Description: Michael is about six feet tall and has a slightly athletic build, close-cropped medium length brown hair, brown eyes, and a light beard. He wears a plain red shirt and red pants. He also has red travelling boots, which stop about a couple inches below his calves, and red fingerless gloves that go about halfway up his forearms. And completing his look is a deep crimson longcoat with lighter red trim (think of Kirito's longcoat in the Aincrad arc of Sword Art Online, but red instead of black).
Pokemon Captured: none
Pokemon Natures: Inferno the Chimchar (male; hardy); Hewdraw the Deino (male; bold)
Park Items: none

 

Looks good! You're approved! That said, you're going to want to bring in more than just one unevolved Mon, even for a beginner run. Looking at your stats, I see you have a Deino as well, so don't hesitate to update your post here as you get more Pokémon!

 

Name: Thea Rochev
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Personality: A usually gentle girl, Thea has a sieze the day mentality, and makes the most of whatever happens. When it comes to battling however, her gentle side disappears and her drive to win kicks in. She'll pretty much always back herself and her Pokemon. When something puts her in a bad mood she's been known to make sarcastic comments.
Description: Thea stands at just under 5'8". Her shoulder length hair is chestnut brown and usually tied back in a simple rope braid. Her eyes are light green, and rest above her petite nose. Her usual outfit consists of a scarlet cami top, a knee-length flared black skirt, over plain black tights. She accompanies this with a pair of black ankle boots. Her outfit is finished with a think silver bangle around her left wrist and a pair of teardrop-shaped emerald earrings.
Pokemon Captured: None
Pokemon Natures:
Treecko (M) - Brave
Misdreavus (F) - Calm
Park Items: Park Ball x3, Energy Powder x1, Lava Cookie x1, Pokedoll x1

 

Looks good. You're approved! As such, expect the park run up in an hour or two!

 

let's not have randy run around with a rayquaza hahaha

Name: Khoth Tinnin
Age: 42
Gender: Male

Personality: Khoth's decades of training on Mount Manchu hardened his personality. He always takes everything very seriously and often intimidates others with his no-nonsense take on life. Khoth seeks purpose through the Pokemon he meets, captures, and trains. As he develops his bond with his Pokemon, he grows closer to enlightenment. Having reached a stage in his life where his training dictates that he travels the world to go through new experiences with his team of well-trained Pokemon, Khoth's curiosity of people and Pokemon that are foreign to him pokes through his otherwise rock-hard demeanor.

Description: Khoth's tan, burly body reaches the height of 6'2. He wears light, handcrafted clothing he made himself. He keeps a cloth sack on his back to contain his Pokeballs and other belongings as he travels. His long, black hair flows between his shoulders and down his back. Khoth's muscles practically burst through his clothes, appearing capable of wrestling with a Machamp. His face, unadorned by facial hair, has a rugged look of someone who's worked hard throughout his life.

Pokemon Captured:

Pokemon Natures:
Mannoroth the Mamoswine M Docile
Suro the Slowking M Hardy

OhgodRayquazainthepark

I mean, approved!! Sounds like it’s time to get dangerous.

 

Name: Elijah Storm Haverty-Jones
Age: 24 years old
Gender: Transgender male
Personality: The best way to describe Eli is that he is prickly towards other human beings, and gentle to Pokemon and animals. He is intelligent, and tends to use his mind like a weapon. The only human being he is not generally prickly or angry around is his four year old daughter, Rose. She is his last connection to his late boyfriend, Chris, who died a few months before Rose was born. He misses him dearly, and has a locket with two pictures in it around his neck: one picture of him and Chris, and another of him holding Rose after her birth. Other than her, however, he tends to be cold and quite rude towards other humans, but is warm and gentle with Pokemon. He loves his Pokemon dearly, and if you insinuate otherwise he'll have your head.
Description: Standing 6'2" at his tallest, Eli is in peak physical health. He is muscular, but not so muscular that it becomes more for show than for practical use. He has carefully dreadlocked hair that he keeps in pristine condition, and if he hears you say they look unprofessional or matted, well... just hope he doesn't hear you say it. His skin is very dark, and he has a tattoo of a Pyroar on his left shoulder. He has multiple other, smaller, tattoos, but that one is the most prominent. He usually wears a white tank top with dark colored jeans or shorts. His hair is black, and his eyes are dark brown. He has a strong jawline as well and a flat, muscular chest.
Pokemon Captured: N/A
Pokemon Natures: Fireheart - Torracat - Docile

Park Items: N/A

 

Looks good, approved!

 

Name: Walaby
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Personality: I am a very outgoing and friendly person, but I still appreciate my alone time. I spend most of that alone time outside exploring the world with my trusty pokemon at my side. I recently became acquainted with an Axew and a Mareep, who has now evolved into a Flaaffy. I care deeply for my friends and those close to me, but don't really give myself many opportunities to make new friends. I am always looking out for people and willing to help in any way I can, including correcting people when they are wrong. However, some people find this trait annoying, as I can seem overbearing and rude.
Description: I am an average caucasian male, 5'9" and about 130lbs. I have a somewhat slim build, but the muscles I do have are well toned due to regular exercise. I have light brown hair that becomes even lighter during the summer time. I keep it pretty short. I am otherwise clean shaven. I have green eyes and an averagely shaped face. I do, however, have exceptionally long and dark eyelashes, which people constantly comment on.
Pokemon:
Axel the Haxorus (Brave, M)
Ampere the Ampharos (Jolly, M)
Regina the Magikarp (Bold, F)
Sam the Trumbeak (Hardy, M)
Park Items: 1x Poke Doll, 3x Park Ball, 3x Energy Powder, 1x Lava Cookie

 

Looks great now! You're approved!

 

Carolyne Hesper Dole
Current Runs:
Age: 17
Gender: Female

Etymology:

Carolyne: Given name; a derivative of Latin Carolus, meaning "free", with Germanic cognates that mean "commander [of armies]"; alludes to her yearning for freedom from the judgment of others, and the desire to take command of her life and be who she wants to be. Pronounce as "-line" as opposed to "-leen".

Hesper: Second name; Greek "Evening Star"; establishes her fascination with 'things of the night'; also frames her as brilliant and ever-shining amidst the darkness of her past, of her struggles.

Dole: Family name; old word for sorrow and mourning; that though she may dream of taking personal control of things around her, that though she wills herself inextinguishable in the face of fear and hardship, there are always echoes of doubt in her head, and they whisper of failure and regret.

Referred to as: Cee (by family), Hes (by school friends), "Hexy" Hes (by school bullies), Carolyne the Mauve (by her Coven sisters); but prefers to be called plainly as Carolyne during odd months, and Hesper on even ones ("Have to respect the lunar cycle," she'd say with a grin).

Pokéastrology sign (because "it's important"): In her own words: "I'm a Tauros by birth but I'm more of a Mismagius really," as though this should mean anything sensible to the average person.

Backstory:
Carolyne Hesper Dole never fit in, not even among the other weirdos.

The first possession came when she was six, and they’ve never stopped since.

Memories of pristine white-tiled clinics, of cords placed on her scalp that she always found uncomfortable, and of people in white coats talking to miserable looking Mr. and Mrs. Dole make up the bulk of her early childhood. For a time the experts thought she was born a Psychic, but after being enrolled at a school for those who share her supposed abilities and realizing that she couldn’t mentally bend so much as a toothpick (let alone a spoon!) or predict tomorrow’s weather, that notion was quickly dismissed.

But still the possessions came, one after another, each of them stronger than the last. One unassuming evening when she was ten, she woke up their household with her mumbling in tongues, both her eyes a canvass of white, and her body flailing and seizing wildly. Horrified and pleading, her parents tried to calm her down, but the mumblings became shouts; she screamed and screamed and screamed until. . . she was gone.

Vanished, like a bubble popping.

For reasons unknown even to her to this day, she had been pulled into a different dimension. Hesper describes the experience as something like a dream: drifting formless, like a ghost, over a blasted landscape of reds and purples that seemed to defy all manner of physical laws. Time was an afterthought to her.

She went missing for five years. In that time, her mother fell into a severe depression and wasted away. Hesper’s return was the doing of a Coven of Hex Maniacs, who had been performing rituals to breach otherworldly dimensions. Unfortunately, things were too late and Hesper would not be reunited with her mother.

Blaming herself for her mother’s passing, she decided to join the Coven to learn more about the Hexing Arts, and ultimately, the meaning of her possessions. Hesper is currently living with her father in Rustboro City, Hoenn. She's on winter break from school, and after hearing about extra dimensional wormholes popping up in the National Park, has decided to investigate. . .

Personality/Other information:
- Prone to calling moves by their PokéLatin names, because "There lies power in the purest names. I think. Or at least Hex Sister Sylvia the Scarlet said so."
- Highly inquisitive and attentive
- Unorthodox sense of humor. . . bordering on morbid at times
- Jumpy, sometimes scares even her own self (and others often)
- Nevertheless strong-willed, though sensitive about being asked about her mother
- Pretty willing to discuss the incident, however
- Closet foodie (absolutely adores saffron on just about anything!)
- Listens to Fell Stinger, Pink Fleshsuit Apparatus, and The Everstones
- Carries all manner of Hex Artefacts, from spellbooks to runestones to scrying balls.

Description:

Height: 5'5''

Name: Ed (full name Egbert Masterson)
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Personality: Ed is the kind of person who'd call himself a coward without flinching.
Egbert Masterson's formative years were full of high expectations. When you're born to a family of prestigious Pokémon Trainers, with seven Elite Four members and a Champion— Ed's great-grandfather— in the last four generations, your options are to measure up, quickly, or... Or, well, be Ed. All of his siblings and cousins have gone on to become professionals in the field of Pokémon taming, breeding, or training; but Ed, to his relatives' dismay, has never shown the least aptitude for being a Trainer. By the age of eleven, he had yet to show any interest in departing on— or even preparing for— the centuries-old tradition of the Pokémon journey. His parents' attempts to send him on that hallowed pilgrimage met with no success; each time, he returned within a few days, more interested in returning to his diverse hobbies than in braving the elements with a trusty partner at his side. Ed is quiet, passive, and not at all calculating— unlike the rest of his family. He would rather be left alone with his musical instruments, or his drawing supplies, or his handheld games. The fact that he is not left to such things has resulted in his adopting a sullen, listless attitude toward most other things, an attitude which sometimes borders on petty.
Description: Barely five feet tall, Ed is both short and scrawny. His tousled dark-brown hair falls only far enough to partially cover his overlarge ears— if he won't keep it properly groomed, his parents figure, best keep it short— and his eyes are the same shade of brown as his hair. Had he his own way, he'd wear comfortable sweat-clothes at all times, but his relatives make sure he never leaves home without a proper ace-trainer-style outfit— hat, vest, shirt, and sporty legwear— in the family colours of gold and black... complete with a black hiking rucksack crammed full of more than enough Poké Balls, recovery items, and gear to supply two Trainers, let alone one. The pack, too heavy for a frail boy like Ed, unbalances him and causes him to appear even smaller than he is.
