This world is inhabited by creatures that we call pokemon. People and pokemon live together by supporting each other, but now the scourge threatens the safety of the entire region. Kohaku has become a dangerous place, where children stay at home and only brave souls go adventuring.
Welcome to KOHAKU. Come for the nightmares. Stay for the tea and crumpets.
The season is SUMMER. It is easy for survivors to forage for food from the land, as there are entire abandoned farms ready for harvest. On the downside, you can smell the corpses.

ELIAS LIONCOURT thinks he's something. but he's not. he never has been. but who's to say that he never will be? his overwhelming confidence and pride is a bit of a silly suit to wear, he's proven himself only adequate in the past. in short, he's nothing special. he's pessimistic and snobby; selfish and elusive. he's logical, which can be a good thing, but it also brings a lack of creativity. his beliefs are based on facts and only that, he leaves little room for speculation. lately he's been stuck in a spell of bad luck- his biggest "rival" (the relationship is obviously one-sided) has surpassed him in terms of skill AND experience, and he spent most of the past six months in the hospital, with a broken thigh. he's available for any plots, throw anything at me.
MERCI "YVES" CASTELLANOS is a girl. a girl who has become corrupt and aligned herself with the evil creatures that murdered her father. no one knows what triggered this metamorphosis- she was merci castellanos one day, a nature girl who loved her father, and then she was yves the next, a clever yet icy girl who still shelters the shame of her traitorous deeds. her passion is still inside her though- she has an amazing capacity to love, to feel, to care. but perhaps that is her biggest weakness, leading her to act as apathetic as she can towards things that trigger her shameful past. yves is open to many plots too, but she's not exactly one who
RHEA YORK is your general delinquent from veilstone city, sinnoh. she's angry, bottled up, guarded, but if you can worm your way in you can see that she's not too bad. under the impression that her mother never loved her (which probably was true), rhea has acted out multiple times. she doesn't know why, but it's her innate way of saying that she wants love and care just like everybody else has. she's actually passionate about being a ranger deep down as well, even if she comes off like she doesn't care. it's all an act from rhea-- a way of protecting her more...gooey feelings from the people around her. open to any plots, especially ones that will trigger her anger/emotion.
SOMNUS GRIMSTED has been sleeping for a little over one year now. but in reality, he's been sleeping his whole life. as a child, poor somnus was always very sickly; he'd be inside all day, watching his brother and sister play baseball, swim, etc. and then one day, he contracted a early manifestation of the hades virus and fell into a coma. high fever, heart rate instability-- the doctors could find out why he had this disease. his parents were wealthy so they placed him in a facility and paid millions of dollars to try and find a cure, but alas, nothing worked. he's living in the dream world right now.

Lol anyway, I have Nima, a monumental trap and pokemon researcher. Breeders are great for pokemon research, so he'd be more than happy to take a look at Wendy's pokemon. They'd probably get along well too lol. As for Elias, it's more likely they'd just bump into each other at some point. Not got many ideas on that one, sorry! Anywho, just throwing that out there! If neither sounds good, no worries!
Sorry for being so MIA! Life is hectic, and I'm moving. I should be good to go after about a week!
sighs minato and nill how fantastic <3 in any case, delilah is a twenty-one year old trainer from bacchus -- with elias, i could see her kind of looking down on him? she was injured by the scourge, and has lost the ability to use the fingers on her left hand (which is a disaster for her, since she played cello), and his lack of experience with it might make her rather frustrated. i could see them being pseudo-rivals? she won't bother with being super serious, but her pride kind of makes it hard for her to accept defeat.
with wendy (aah nill <3), however, delilah would want to look out for her and try to keep her safe. despite her outgoing personality, delilah is surprisingly motherly; so she'd really appreciate that wendy isn't in the super dangerous occupation of trainer, and try her best to support wendy when she can.
i'm sorry that these plots are horribad, but i hope you can (kind of, at least??) work with them. if not, it's totally okay! c:
Aw thanks Blue! I love their facelciams too. Such nice art. Anyways, Wendy would absolutely love showing Nima her pokemon-she has quite a few already and loves to show them off. She can be very friendly and nice but occasionally she may be read off as annoying and silly. I'm not sure if Nima would think of her that way, but regardless, she'd be nothing but pleasant and maybe slightly awkward. As for Elias and Nima, he won't open up at all. I'm not sure if Nima would want to look at Elias's pokemon as well- but he'd decline, being the antisocial boy he is. To be honest, Elias might just ignore Nima altogether and not think about him.
Minato and Nill are awesome right? <3 Ooh, a rival! Elias is very prideful as well, but it's mostly a snobby sort of pride. For him, it's not even the lack of knowledge of the scourge, he just doesn't care about it. That's obviously gonna change when he meets an infected zombie pokemon. I see Delilah triumphant in this relationship, because Elias is an asshole and karma has to get him at some point, right? Elias will be dumbfounded if he ends up losing to Delilah at any point, and from what you tell me, Delilah might actually enjoy seeing him that way.
As for Wendy, she's going to love Delilah. I picture her looking up to Delilah for her strength and passion for battling, as well as her surviver story (with the paralyzed fingers and such.) Wendy would look up to her as a mother figure, as her real family is way back in Johto. Who knows, maybe Delilah will get a little dragon hatchling for her kindness ;)

I really do see them getting along swimmingly XD Who shall start? Oh, and as for Elias...well, if he declined, Nima could always challenge him to a battle to force them out lol. He's more than capable of studying them in the middle of battle - it's what researchers do, multitasking to the max lol.
Sorry for being so MIA! Life is hectic, and I'm moving. I should be good to go after about a week!
hah yes!! delilah would love to beat him (even though i really suck at battling personally i'm sorry) but yes, she'd enjoy seeing him down on the ground -- and it might actually be incredibly interesting if they ran into scourge together b/c delilah came out of her own encounter with missing parents and permanent injuries to herself and her brother so s igh
and uuugh delilah would be like 'come here you sweet little baby girl you /CUDDLE' and love wendy forever and ever. it'd just be such a cute thread they'd have together! <3
I can start, if you'd like. I'll get it up as soon as possible. Would you like it anywhere specific? Wendy's most likely in Juno/Proserpina City right now, as she's just started out on her breeding.
OMG I really want them to run into the scourge together now. Elias is a loser so Delilah will be triumphant with everything, she deserves it more than he does anyway. But regardless of his loss, he's still going to be rude and prideful- because after all, he's still better than her after losing to her like 3 times not true lol. Elias's parents never really payed attention to him, that's pretty much what got him so isolated. If they ever took the time to talk about their parents, maybe they could have some very short-lived sympathy for eachother? If they had to battle the scourge together, I see them at least talking once. But of course, it would end right away.
Wendy and Delilah really are going to get along <3 Which is nice considering Wendy hasn't really had any good friends in her life, she's lived with her family on a farm for basically all of her life. Sure, she knew a few people close to her age, but Delilah will probably be the sweetest little friendship she's ever been in. I'd love a thread! Would you rather thread with one of these characters first, or simultaneously?
looking for a swablu/altaria, if you have one PM me!
running them both sounds fine by me! <3 i don't delilah can move past proserpina quite yet, so that sounds fine for her meeting wendy! c: and maybe she and elias can meet somewhere in the dream world?
Wendy'll meet her in proserpina then! As for Elias, the dream world sounds awesome. Anywhere specific in the dream world? Maybe i can start one thread and you could start the other?

Hello Caed! I saw that Elias is up to Lake Pax, and I also realize that we haven't exactly had any of our PCs thread with each other. Like Delilah, Mordecai's had first-hand exposure to the Scourge via Bacchus Town. He wouldn't necessarily resent the fact that Elias hasn't encountered any, rather, I think he'd want to do everything in his power to keep Elias away from them. I have a feeling that Mordecai would keep an eye out for Elias, maybe because he's around the age of Mordecai's youngest sibling.
If you've got any ideas, I'd really like to hear them too!
I think you mentioned that Mordecai might end up liking Elias because he doesn't get along with Delilah. Well, it's pretty much just the same for Elias. If he witnesses any brother/sister bickering, he'll immediately take Mordecai's side just to spite Delilah. Usually Elias doesn't really appreciate anyone looking out for him, but he might be able to deal with it as long as Mordecai is considered an ally. I pretty much see them getting along okay, as they might meet up a few times. ZULF ?
