    (For @SAF and @Ignem and me only!)

    (This RP is rated E10+)

    The basic premise:

    It is a grand tradition in Hisui--guiding a Kubfu to the peak of Celestial Crown Mountain--what we know today as Mt.Coronet. There, it is said, the Kubfu will evolve into one of twelve different Urshifus, and its guides will become gods themselves.

    But the way to Celestial Crown Mountain is not easy--the Kubfu must master many different martial arts, and climb to the tops of the Jeweled Towers. The Kubfu and their guides may even be accosted by warlords, greedy nobles, and yokai.

    Even though there are many that wish to harm you and your Kubfu, there are many more that want to help you--the most prominent of these being the Six Great Masters--Master Ruby Phoenix, Master Sapphire Dragon, Master Emerald Raikou, Master Golden Delphox, Master Jade Beautifly, and Master Pearl Deerling.

    You play the role of a hero guiding a Kubfu--will you survive the long and perilous journey to Celestial Crown Mountain?

    Sign up here with the following info:

    Character's name: (try to pick something that at least sounds Chinese or Japanese)
    Character's age: (anywhere from age 14 to 19 will do)
    Character's physical appearance (what does your character basically look like?)
    Character's personality/known history (what is your character like, and what spurred your character to embark on the journey to Celestial Crown Mountain?)
    Character's known Pokémon, if any (any known non-Legendary Pokémon are allowed--if you do want a Legendary, be prepared to explain how you got it)
    Character's preferred style: (what does your character use to fight? If they fight unarmed, just put "fist", "palm", or "knuckle")
    Character's school/sect: (Is your character part of a school or sect? If they are not, you can list them as "wandering warriors")

    Some information and inspiration to help you brainstorm:

    If you need ideas for sect names or martial art names, check here (check all the two word templates for best results. You can also generate a nickname for your character, if you wish)
    If you just need martial art names, look here--try to keep them somewhat realistic sounding, and Pokemonize accordingly)

    Here is a generator for martial titles, if you'd like one.

    Nunchuk
    Wheel
    Shield

    Instruments you may use

    Harp
    Flute
    Tikin (a three stringed fiddle-like instrument with a voice-like sound)

    So I'm thinking of somewhat rebooting this girl:
    But I'm not sure how to overhaul it while keeping these points intact:
    • She originally comes from what would be Alola today
    • She has a certain penchant for cats and has an easier time bonding with feline Pokémon regardless of their types
    • She'll most likely have someone from Litten and/or Alolan Meowth families as her partner(s)
    • If she has Litten or any of its evolutions, she'll have access to Malicious Moonsault (whether it's via Z-Ring per Alolan tradition or via special spell akin to Fumiko's Sinister Arrow Raid in another RP, your call)

    (We don't have to explicitly name the island--just an unknown island far from Hisui
    She could have a Glameow...
    Z-moves are special spells

    As usual, I'm doubling. But @Ignem doesn't have to if they don't want to.
    Akihisa Kirisame
    Name: Akihisa "Aki" Kirisame
    Age: 16
    School/Sect: The Order of the Great Light
    Appearance Basic appearance:
    [​IMG]
    Initial Outfit: Basically like this but without the robe and cloak
    [​IMG]
    Image source: .:White MageM:. Costume Design by shigure-kisune on DeviantArt

    Backstory Aki is an aspiring cleric who's currently apprenticing at Celebration Village. His apprenticeship had been relatively uneventful until he nursed a Kubfu back to health. This particular Kubfu, who had their guide killed by a mercenary, then told the aspiring cleric about their mission and asked if he would help out with it out of gratitude. Aki would've loved to help, but he had to get his mentor's permission first.

    Known Pokémon:
    • Bella the female Chimecho
    Preferred styles:
    • White chi (leaning more to cleric-based spells)
    • Open to learn any self-defense martial arts
    • A Small Beacon of Hope (Cure) : a basic healing spell
    • Light Purging the Darkness (Esuna) : cures status ailments
    Money: 1000 sen

    My OC #2 is still work in progress done.

    That works!

    Once Pokémon Legends: Arceus comes out, it will affect what this version of Hisui looks like

    OC #2: let's throw a girl in the mix~ :D
    Ohana Kai
    Name: Ohana "Hana" Kai
    Age: 14
    School/Sect: Wandering warrior (well, technically)
    Appearance Basic appearance:
    [​IMG]
    Initial Outfit: Roughly like Akari's outfit in Legends: Arceus (sans the scarf and headkerchief) but with colors and pattern matching above pic. She also wears a pair of gloves with retractable claws (like a cat's claws!) as her main "weapon" (?).

    Backstory Hana is a traveler from an unknown island far away from Hisui (re: what would be Alola today) with a certain penchant for cats and has an easier time bonding with feline Pokémon regardless of their types. So much that her friends would call her a crazy cat lady. She had been randomly wandering around Hisui for quite some time until she heard about Kubfu and their quest. She decided to take up the challenge as a Kubfu guide even though Kubfu is a bear and she's more into cats.

    Known Pokémon:
    • Torra the male Incineroar
    • Will get another feline Pokémon later on
    Preferred styles:
    • Claws
    • Chi (her innate one is whatever fits Malicious Moonsault best)
    • Malicious Moonsault: Hana casts a special spell to upgrade Torra's Darkest Lariat. This spell is based on Incineroar's special Z-move of the same name and only usable once per battle.
    Money: 1000 sen
    • Gloves with retractable claws

    It is hard to find a name that sounds Japanese and Hawaiian at the same time.

    That looks interesting!

    Would it be fine if I said that Tyson's Riolu knows to use Aura Sphere?

    well by the moveset in the games they don't learn it until they evolve.

    Also Tyson's martial arts is just pure offense and ways to increase offensive power. So I am gonna name it Way of the Striking Soul. He has not named it. It's something he has picked from books.

    In the process of building a map of a MUCH bigger and more populated Hisui--not every location from Legends: Arceus will appear!
