Elite Four Auditions

[Anna Marine]

Hey there guys! If you want your character to be one of the Elite Four, or if you want to create a character for it, here's your place! I'll post the form below. There are some rules, though. Here they are:

- Age must be somewhere between 25-50. This is when most Pokemon masters are at their peak.
- All your Pokemon must be above level 50. Anything lower, and you might not be accepted.
- You do not have to specialize in a specific type. If you wish to, that's alright too!
A friend of mine pointed out that the Elite Four are supposed to have a specific type that the specialize in. I will send a PM to the current members of the Elite Four asking them to change their Pokemon.

[Ema Lippi]

Name: Ema Rae Lippi
Playby: Emma Watson
Age: 25
Type: Normal & Ice
History:

Born to two proud, average parents in Celadon City, Ema appeared to be a normal child. Her childhood was somewhat independent, as she was an only child and her parents worked in Saffron City with long hours. At the age of ten, she left home to go on a journey, accompanied by the Meowth her older friend (who had recently become a trainer herself) had caught for her. She spent the next three years strengthening her team until she began challenging the gyms of Kanto. Ema was and is a perfectionist, and she refused to battle the famous trainers unless she knew she had a strong chance of winning.

On her fifteenth birthday Ema battled the last gym leader and lost. It was a major ego-crusher, and she was put into a funk for a good few years, hiding away in the Seafoam Islands to study ice type Pokemon by herself. It was there that she found a love for the chilly Pokemon. It took her four years to work up the courage to challenge the final gym once again, and she managed to beat it by a small thread. This gave her newfound confidence and reassurance, making her a somewhat famous trainer throughout Kanto as she continued her studies, looking in different places for different species of Normal and Ice type Pokemon. She found a deep fascination for Cleffa, Clefable and Clefairy while exploring Mt. Moon as well.

When she was twenty three, Ema traveled to the Indigo Plateau and challenged the Elite Four. She managed to defeat all four by just the slightest, but lost to the champion. However, they saw potential in her and recruited her to be the third member of the Elite as the other was retiring anyway. She was clearly the best-suited for the job.

She's been working there for two years now, somewhat fed up with challengers who think they know it all and really don't. Anyone who challenges her is surely in for a hectic and unique battle.

Pokemon: Persian (65), Wigglytuff (63), Kangaskan (62), Clefable (63), Dewgong (63), Lapras (62)

Awesome job! (:

[Dante Kikren]

Name: Dante Kikren
Playby: Alex Kendall
Age: 30
Type: Fire and Flying
History: He's lived in Cinnabar his whole life, but when he became the age 12, his father issued the ferry to Pallet Town upon which he'd start his pokemon journey. Now, coming from ty he island of fire, it was natural to choose Charmander as his first pokemon. He entered the lab and greeted Professor Oak naturally. Within minutes, he received his Charmander, and soon left for the journey ahead.

As he progressed throughout the region, he was greeted by many trainers and made many friends along his way. He soon caught a Pidgey, and somewhat struggled through the Pewter City gym. After that, he made his way to Cerulean, and thanks to his Pidgey - who would be now a Pidgeotto - defeated. The next gyms were a cinch, and between Cerulean and Cinnabar, he had obtained a Growlithe, an Aerodactyl, and a Dratini. Respectively, his pokemon had evolved accordingly to their level.

After defeating Blaine, he received his final pokemon, Gyarados. He caught him when saving a swimmer who had unfortunately made this said Gyarados angry. Pleased with his catch, he made onward to Viridian to get the last gym badge. The battle was tougher than the others, but Dante managed to succeed in getting the Earth badge. He soon left Viridian and made his way to the Indigo Plateau.

Upon making his way through the hectic Victory Road, he stood at the gates. He entered, healed his pokemon respectively, and entered the stadium.

Dante did well, but he did not become the champion. He lost to the champion, and he swore he'd return. It was then he was offered a spot in the elite four, and at first reluctant he agreed. He was 27. He has trained much harder since then and doesn't make it easy for the fellow contestants.

Pokemon: Charizard (66), Pidgeot (64), Arcanine (64), Aerodactyl (64), Dragonite (64), Gyarados (63)

RP Example: "Charizard, Heat Wave!" shouted Dante. The Charizard roared and sent off an uncomfortable wave of heat, sending the opponents Raichu across the stadium and slamming it into the wall. The other trainer called to his Raichu, who was badly injured but not down yet. "Thunderbolt!" called the other trainer, to which Charizard was zapped, but still going strong. "Flamethrower." Dante said and Charizard blasted a flamethrower. Direct hit. Raichu had fainted, but the trainer was still going strong. He sent out a Ninetails. "Ninetails, Double Edge!" The Ninetails launched at him. Charizard got a hit again, and fainted. "Aerodactyl, Stone Edge!" An Aerodactyl launched out of the pokeball and flew at the Ninetails, slamming it into the sharpened rocks below. As the smoke cleared, the Ninetails had fainted, thus ending the match.

"It was a good match, young trainer." said Dante, walking up to him. He extended his hand, to which the trainer grabbed it and they shook hands. "Thanks." he replied.

I will be making this charrie if she gets approved~

Also, if it would be allowed, I would like to replace Skydancer with an articuno. Only if that is allowed though~

Name: Anastasia Dallia

Playby: Asuna - Sword Art Online

Age: Twenty-Six

Type: Mixture

History: As a small girl Anastasia had mainly aspired to live up to be just like her father. He was the Gym leader for the first Gym, and Anastasia had believed that to be absolutely wonderful. Although as the girl grew, she came to realize that there were those more powerful than her father even! She eventually came to conclude that she would do the best she could and take place in the Elite Four! The girl never knew how lucky she would really be as she grew. Her journey started when she was only ten years, accompanied by her mother's arcanine's pup, Cairo. The growlithe would play a very important role in Anastasia's journey.

Her first stop had been to see the professor, and despite having Cairo, she got a starter too. The young squirtle who she named Terra. By the time Terra had evolved to become a wartortle she ended up catching a pidgeotto and a meowth, Skydancer and Bheara. Her travels continued through the lands until her team consisted of a powerful mixture. Now with aloof jolteon, Tahno, and always caring chansey, Grace. Her journey had truly only just started at that point.

She had traveled through the region, battling gyms, and even taking place at some as the leader. Although, as she grew, her aspirations grew with her still. She had many pokemon with her, all growing more powerful by the day. As Anastasia lived out a few years in boredom she came to a conclusion. It was time to take her place in the Elite Four. She signed herself up for the challenge, to prove she was strong enough to make it in as one. With her team, she was able to sweep through most of the other challengers, and eventually made her way to take up position. Cairo had since grown too, from a playful pup, to a powerful arcanine. The proud canine was her most powerful team member.

Pokemon: Terra Male Blastoise (Lv66), Skydancer Female Pidgeot (Lv62), Cairo Male Arcanine (Lv75), Tahno Male Jolteon (Lv63), Grace Female Chansey (Lv67), Bheara Female Persian (Lv61)

RP Example: The dragonite crashed into the blastoise, knocking him off balance for the time. Looking back to his trainer, the blastoise got up again. This dragonite was the last pokemon of the adversary, but the most powerful of all. Having swept through Anastasia's team until Terra stood, and one other. The blastoise tucked in and rocketed forward with a Rapid Spin attack, slamming the dragonite in the stomach. That didn't seem to phase it one bit though. The dragonite came down on Terra with a powerful Thunder, and that was the end of the battle.

Anastasia recalled the large turtle. "That was great." She said as she clipped the pokeball back onto her belt. She then looked to her last pokemon left. "Ready Cairo?" She asked. The arcanine rumbled his answer and Anastasia pointed out onto the battle field. "Go get 'em!" She called as Cairo gallowped out and stood looking up at the dragonite as it hovered in the air. The trainer's dragonite came plummeting down to attack with Thunder, but Cairo was quick to move away. He leapt to the side, and turning on his heels nimbly, he crashed into the dragonite using Extremespeed. The dragonite tumbled to the ground. Cairo opened his jaws and let loose with a gout of fire. Flamethrower, hitting the downed dragonite. The opponent bellowed as the searing flames scorched his hide.

Rocketing from the ground, the dragonite once again dove downward, but with an attempt at using Fly. Cairo met the attack head-on with Extremespeed. A large cloud of dust covered all field of vision. Every so often, small lighting could be seen. The yellow flash of Thunder attacks, and the red glow of a Flamthrower. By the time the dust cleared, the two pokemon stood facing off. The dragonite looked rather tired, but Cairo still stood proudly. He surged forth and opened his jaws wide to use Crunch. The dragonite was not fast enough as Cairo clenchd his jaws over the dragon's leg and spun around to send the dragonite crashing into the ground. Cario stood over the dragonite in a small crater that had been made from the impact of the smash. Anastasia had won this battle, but she knew that there were others who would come seeking to battle her again. Bring it on.

[Alexander Louis Lookingland]

Name: Alexander Louis Lookingland
Playby: Hei, Darker Than Black
Age: Twenty-eight
Type: Fire
History: (Alexander was born a mere six months after his parents shotgun wedding. He was the first child of Franklin Jacob Lookingland, a respected Pokemon professor, and Kara Maria Hobbs, his eighteen year old assistant who was thirty years his junior. The marriage came about only because the Hobbs parents pressured Franklin into proposing immediately after the pregnant was discovered. The entire thing caused a huge commotion in the small community, and it felt like the entire town was awaiting Alexander's birth.

Alexander seemed to have almost known about the attention he was getting from his birth, and almost thumbed his nose at those around him. He was a fussy child, a crier for no reason and immensely picky. He was known to cry and wail when being held, randomly pick someone to be fond of, and then just as quickly toss them aside. His first word was "NO!", and he ran early to terrorize the town. Most importantly though, Alexander learned how to play the game. He was well aware of the disdain his parents had towards him, and each other. Franklin Lookingland never wanted to be tied down by a wife and child, and Kara Hobbs had always dreamed of striking out on her own and making it big. Alexander halted both of their dreams, sticking a wedge in the threesome of a family. He learned what neighbors to play nice to at what times to get the information, items, etc that he wanted to obtain.

The most important thing to happen to Alexander in his hometown however, was that he learned about Pokemon. Both his mother and father were knowledgeable, and at an early age he received his first Pokemon. She became his pride and joy, someone and something he trusted immensely. He grew fiercely attached to his Pokemon, and slowly accumulated more. He never focused on being a "gotta catch them all!" trainer, but instead on the relationship he grew. In result, while he knew a lot about Pokemon, he never really had any first hand information. For example, he knows full well that a Pikachu is a difficult and stubborn Pokemon to train, especially right after obtaining it. However, he's never TAUGHT that species, only LEARNED about it from various resources. Still, his knowledge base is deep.

Around the age of 10 Alexander's parents reconciled, and for a while they were happy. At age 12 Juliet Sara Lookingland was born, and Alexander became a big brother. To say that she was his pride and joy... Well, that really wasn't an exaggeration. Her birth was a happy time for the Lookinglands, and although Franklin and Kara grew apart once again - infidelity rumors ran rampant on both ends - Juliet kept them happy and together.

Eventually Alexander had to strike out on his own. He left to forge his own path and wandered for several years, racking up gym and trainer wins. He was a proficient fire trainer, though he wasn't stupid enough to reply solely on them. He had other Pokemon of different types that he would raise for him gym battles. Eventually he traveled to the Elite Four to battle for a spot as one of it's trainers. While he did wow generally, he naturally struggled against water types. Additionally, his snotty attitude wasn't exactly appreciated, so he was declined from that and his age. He trained for a few more years before re-challenging them and eventually becoming accepted.
Pokemon: Pippa: Ninetails F - Level 70

   

Renz: Arcanine M - Level 68

   

Risa: Rapidash F - Level 63    

Carmine: Flareon M - Level 65     

Vito: Charizard M - Level 67    
RP Example: The Plateau had been too quiet. And while Alexander couldn't pinpoint exactly when the last time he'd had a challenger has been, he knew it had been way too long. He was growing board, and with his boardom came a sort of restless energy and an undercurrent of frustration.

 Becoming a member of the Elite Four only seemed fitting to Alexander, who was as vain and selfish as they came. He never saw himself as anything else, anything less, then besides maybe grand champion of them all, but nay, he digresses. No, Alexander Louis Lookingland was not a modest man, and in many way it wasn't undeserved. His father Franklin Lookingland, or Professor "Willow" if you were a young un' hoping for her first Pokemon, was fairly respected in the field. He wasn't a Professor Oak by any means, and the controversy over Alexander's birth quietly squashed him into obscurity, but the old man did know his stuff. And he taught Alexander everything he knew. Heck, the boy got his first Pokemon when he was five because of his parents.

"Nine..."

 A soft mew broke Alexander from his thoughts. Pippa, his first ever Pokemon was standing near the entrance of the room, her ears pricked high. Her elegant self was all on alert, and her tails were swishing slightly from side to side, as though a dog realizing that her master could be home any minute now.

 "Do we have a challenger, at long last, my dear girl?" Alexander asked, a smile slipping to his face. The fox Pokemon turned her head to face him, cocking it to the left. She considered her trainer's words for a moment before bounding over to the tall man and butting her head against his thigh, as playful as she was as a newly hatched Vulpine. "Yes, I'm excited too, Pretty Pippa."

 A small knock came before the door swung open slowly. A nervous trainer of about fifteen stood before the trainer and his Pokemon, looking nervous. Alexander couldn't pinpoint the girl's fear. It wasn't like this was her first battle of the series; she had already made it past two. So unless she was a specialized Ground trainer, she shouldn't be staring at him with such a wide eyed look and sweat running down her face.

 "Ahhh, hello there." Alexander said, mentally weighing how he thinks the girl might be as a trainer. "I see you've beaten my two colleagues. Well, congratulations on that. I'm afraid I won't be such an easy battle as the other two. But, I digress. Let's begin, shall we? Pippa, go on. You know you're first.... Good luck to you, dear."



 (Not a good post at all. Boo -.-)

Wow! That was awesome! Congrats Alexander, you are now the third member of the Elite Four!
