    There's an old legend among the Pokémon of Radiant Town. It tells of a city that was said to be carved out of solid gold. In a hostile world, the Golden City was a safe haven, protected by a mysterious guardian. The Pokémon living there thought they were safe within its walls, but they were wrong. One day, a tragedy befell the city. Nobody knows for sure what happened, but the next day, the Golden City was gone, never to be seen again.

    Of course, a city made of gold was bound to attract treasure hunters. Many explorers have set out to find it, but so far, all of their efforts have all been in vain. Some have given up, dismissing it as a myth, but there are a few who persevere. Will one of these brave adventurers solve the mystery of the Golden City once and for all? Only time will tell.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A town where explorers and merchants from all over the world gather. The roads are lined with the stalls of traveling merchants, eager to sell their wares. It's also home to the Radiant Town Guild, which has been leading the search for the Golden City for years. Guildmaster Koa is constantly looking for new recruits, but ever since Pokémon stopped believing in the old legend, the guild's numbers have been declining.
    A small town built into the side of a cliff. At one point it rivaled Radiant Town in size, but in their pursuit of progress and innovation, the many inventors living here drove the other Pokémon out. With the constant noise from the steam-powered machines and factories, very few Pokémon are willing to live there.
    The only sound to be heard in this dungeon is the gentle breeze that drifts through it. The Normal-type Pokémon here are easily defeated, and the simple terrain makes this one of the easiest dungeons to traverse. It starts right outside Radiant Town's west exit, and on the other side side of the dungeon, one can find the town of Lofton.
    A peaceful and quiet place, home to many Grass- and Bug-type Pokémon. It's a popular dungeon among beginners during the day, but at night, powerful Fairy- and Ghost-types come out. It can be found a couple of miles north of Radiant Town.
    While most of the wild Pokémon here are weak, many beginners still avoid it due to the near-constant rain. Many Water-type Pokémon can be found here. It runs along the coast to the east of Radiant Town.

    More locations will be added later.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    • This RP will not take place in the same world as the games.
    • Mystery Dungeons aren't split up into floors like they are in the games. They still do shift around, though, so don't expect things to stay in the same place.
    • All characters will start out as non-legendary, unevolved Pokémon. They will be given the chance to evolve later on.
    • Everyone can start with moves learned at or before level 10, and one egg move. They will learn more moves as they get stronger.

    Backstory: Quinn grew up in the town of Lofton. Her father was a well-known inventor, who played a major role in starting the town's industrial revolution. Both her and her older brother were expected to follow in his footsteps. While her brother did just that, Quinn had other interests. She was fascinated by history and mythology, in particular, the legend of the Golden City. As much as her father wanted her to take up his profession, he never forced her to do anything. He did everything he could to support her interest in exploring.

    As time went on, Quinn noticed her father was gradually getting weaker. He insisted that he was fine at first, but eventually, he was completely bedridden. At this point, Quinn knew that his days were numbered. She knew he wanted to see her become the explorer she always wanted to be. So, when one of the Radiant Town Guild's recruiters came to Lofton, she didn't hesitate. She was going to join the Guild and discover the Golden City, like she'd always wanted to do.

    Personality:
    Quinn is calm and polite, but can be socially awkward at times. She has a great deal of knowledge about the Mystery Dungeons and the myths and legends surrounding them, which she is more than happy to share with others, whether they want her to or not. As well-read as she is, though, her inexperience shows. She has the tendency to panic when something happens that she isn't prepared for.

    Name: Muni
    Species: Alolan Meowth
    Gender: Male
    Appearance:
    [​IMG]
    Ability: Rattled
    Moves:
    - Scratch
    - Bite
    - Hypnosis
    - Growl
    Backstory:
    Muni lost his family at a young age, managing to escape with his older brother. To this day he is unsure if the attackers were feral or thieves, and he currently doesn't want to know. When he was old enough to care for himself, his brother left him in the night to join what he thought was a reputable guild-they turned out to be a group of thieves and forced the brother to steal Muni's supplies.
    Muni kept on, hunger steadily growing as days rolled by. He was starting to consider slipping into eating meat when he saw a bright light in the dark night. Was this it? Was he about to pass on? He ran for the light, only to encounter a Litwick a year or two younger than him. Exhausted and somewhat relieved, Muni collapsed right to the ground.
    When he awoke, the meowth was surrounded by a family of Chandelures and the Litwick from before. Although he resisted it, the ghost candles adopted him among their own and raised him alongside Angeni. The two developed a close bond of friendship and have decided to head out on their own to join the Radiant Town's Guild in hopes of finding lost relics and lots of gold.
    Personality:
    Muni is a pretty silent fellow, and is quite intimidating by looks alone. He used to have a negative outlook on the world, but after meeting Angeni his views on life has brightened up a bit. With Angeni's care and advice, he has learned some strategy and opted for some status moves among his attacks. Muni has a love of justice, however the call of Adventure and Jewels was much stronger. He still often goes towards stereotyping others and sticking with gut feelings. He has started to smile more often, to Angeni's delight.
    Name: Angeni
    Species: Litwick
    Gender: Female
    Appearance:
    [​IMG]
    Ability: Flame Body
    Moves:
    - Confuse Ray
    - Acid
    - Ember
    - Smog
    Backstory:
    Angeni grew up within a large family of Chandelure, close to Radiant Town. She worked alongside her family, although dreams of going beyond the farming life excited her. One night as she headed back for her home, a oddly colored meowth approached and fainted at her feet. Seeing he was in dire distress, she opted to bring him home where her parents and a local doctor did their best to heal him. Muni, as they learned his name was, managed to make a full recovery and became a part of their family. Together the two talked of seeking treasures and discovering lands far away, fueling their desires to go beyond the farming life. When they heard of Radiant Town's Guild, they just had to go. Waving a sad farewell to their family, Angeni and Muni left to pursue their dreams of grandeur.
    Personality:
    Angeni is a sweet girl, who does help others in need. She likes to think strategetically and focuses on health problems such as burning, poisoning, and confusing her enemies. Angeni has a bright imagination, although reality has slowly started to zap some of it away. Muni does try to keep her spirits up on the future however. She had a childish mannerish for the longest of times, but now she's finally starting to mature.

    Name: Song
    Species: Popplio
    Gender: Female
    Appearance:
    A normal popplio, but with a lighter shade of blue fur and wearing a white scarf around her neck.
    Ability: Torrent
    Moves:
    -Pound
    -Watergun
    -Growl
    -Disarming Voice
    Backstory:
    Years ago there once was a team of two explorers, consisting of a Krabby and Vaporeon, called team rain. This team was exploring a mystery dungeon when they came across an abandoned egg, and feeling sorry for it, decided to care for it until they returned to the guild and could give it to the local daycare. By the time they did reach town however, they had gotten attached and decided to raise the egg like their own.

    Time passed. The egg hatched into a bright eager Popplio they named song, and the three lived together happily. When Song came of age, she decided she wanted to be an explorer too. Bidding goodbye to her parents, she left for the neighbouring town's guild.

    Personality:
    Song is a cheerful, optimistic Pokémon, prone to talking one's ear off. Although she acts childish, this does not make her naive, as she is actually very capable when it comes down to it. Alignment wise, she would be a Lawful Good.

    Name: Ethan
    Species: Ralts
    Gender: Male
    Appearance: Ethan looks like your average Ralts, but he's always wearing his red scarf.
    Ability: Synchronise
    Moves:
    - Confuse Ray
    - Confusion
    - Double Team
    - Growl
    Backstory: Ethans family is a bit diferent compared to most ralts. His mother was an average Gardevoir, but his father was a Gengar. Thanks to this, he was raised differently from most ralts. Whenever his mother would work on healing the injured people of Radiant Town, his father would take him around town to play harmless pranks on others. Other than that, Ethan lived a mostly normal childhood. But as he grew older, he began to admire the explorers, and everything that had to do with exploration. His parents were against it at first, but his persistance eventually made his parents realize that he was being serious about being an explorer. So once he got old enough, he said his goodbyes to his parents and made his way towards the town's guild.

    Personality: Ethan isn't your average shy little ralts. He like socializing with others, and is talkative compared to most ralts. He's not an optimist nor a pessimist, he's more of a realist, and isn't afraid of expressing his opinions. Thanks to his fathers way of living, he's a little mischievous, but he knows how to contain himself on serious situations.

    I'll most likely put up the first IC post tomorrow. If anyone else is planning on joining, there's no rush. You can still submit your CS after the RP starts.

    Hope this one works ^w^
    Name: Fleuret
    Species:Zorua
    Ability: Illusion
    Gender: Male

    Appearance: Looks almost like any other Zorua, but his fur is scruffier than most. Has a scar on his back, but is hidden by a cloth that acts as a scarf/cape for him.

    Moveset:
    -Leer
    -Scratch
    -Pursuit
    -Fake Tears

    Backstory: Born into a loving family of Zoroark, he was raised as much by them, taught in the ways of illusion. Highly curious, he has gotten into situations got into minor trouble for. But it turned out alright for the most part. But it never stopped him!

    But one day, he was accidentally wandered into a dungeon, he was attacked by a swarm of Bug-type. Being a dark type, he was weak to their attacks, attacked constantly to the point where he would be fatally wounded. He thought he was done for until a flash of fire came from some Pokémon at the swarm. He passed out before he could recognize who that even was. He woke up out of that dungeon, recovering from the injuries in his parents’ den.

    The memory of that day stuck to him. Ever since then he garnered a hatred for Bug-type Pokémon, not because he was almost killed by them, but because he’ll always be weak to them. He has a strong desire to surpass them in some way, but doesn’t know how. Hearing word of the guild in Radiant Town, he is determined to get stronger. With brazen and positive support from his parents, he heads off to the Guild.


    Personality: A bit eccentric, he likes taking risks. Occasionally likes to pull off tricks and playfully deceive others. He hates when he doesn’t trick anyone. He is highly curious, and keeps his eyes on anything interesting that appears. With other Pokémon, he is genuinely nice those he finds nice to him..

    The other characters are doing a mission right now. You can have your character go out to Breezy Hills and run into them, or I could have something happen in Radiant Town to keep him busy until they get back. It's up to you.

    So, Quinn's learned a new move. I'll let you guys decide when your characters level up and learn new moves, but try to have them stay at the same pace as the other characters.
