backstory Back story
Sin Crow was born in Goldenrod City, Jhoto. His parents had been saving up money for years, even before he was born to send him to a private pokemon school. Once he turned 5 they had collected enough money to pay for his entry into the school. He stayed at home till he was 7, getting dropped off and picked up from school by his mom, before moving into the dorms in the school. He grew to love not just pokemon battles but pokemon themselves. He wanted to learn all there is to know about pokemon.
He began his research on all the pokemon as soon as he got into the dorms, spending many late nights in the library reading up on all the different pokemon. At age 10 he found a fondness for science. Also at age 10 all the students were to receive there first pokemon at the school. He got a Magnemite he named Dime. He continued his studies and decided he would become a professor after the school had a guest visit from Professor Oak.
Upon turning 16 he graduated from the school early. He decided to travel to New Bark Town to work under Professor Elm. On his way through Ilex Forest he had an encounter with some Combee. He was able to pinpoint the female thanks to his studies at the school and captured it. He couldn't take them all on so he fled after capturing a female. He decided to name combee Taiest.
He spent the next 4 years working under Professor Elm at his lab, but dreamed of one day opening his own lab. That is when he heard about the Eclipse League competition and the 5 million dollars. He decided to enter but using logic he determined it wasn't likely that he would be chosen. Yet to his surprise he was, so he headed to Olivine City and departed for Eclipse Island

I'm sorry, but real life suddenly took a turn to the complex and I need to pull out of this game. Sorry for the sudden and short notice, but best of luck.

Is the game up on rpol yet? Would prefer to wait until there to post the rest, but if you want it now you want it now.
Velvet Irons' Backstory Velvet's interest in the occult started when she tried to find out what happened to her mother. She was a respected researcher that was particularly interested in deep ocean conditions. She had been studying the role of Lugia in the formation of deep sea currents when she had discovered a deep sea ruin off the coast. Her excitement of the discovery was such that she took her Relicanth, a special Pokemon with the ability to bring people deep into the ocean, to study them. She had found peculiar runes, not Unown script on not Regicode either. She had managed to find translations in the ruins to Regicode, however, and was thus able to learn some.
She had kept a wireless connection with her boat, upon which Velvet had been aboard, feeding information that the six year old Velvet had been dutifully recording. It has talked of an ancient civilization that worshiped an enormous Tentacruel, which the civilization had called 'Akylios'. It seemed to imply the ruins had always been on the bottom of the ocean, rather then sinking there, which was an exciting discovery. Akylios had apparently not had the poison of other Tentacruel and instead utilized potent psychic powers. That was when things got a little... weird.
Velvet had noticed her mother had started to ramble, not stopping to breath as often as she should. She had concernedly asked her mother to slow down, but she had simply kept babbling about Akylios keeping the civilization underneath using his power to ward away the ocean, making a bubble. He also used his power to enthrall heretics, transporting sailors from their boats in the night to place them in the civilization, expanding his worship every time a ship passed by. She had started calling the Tentacruel Lord Akylios at that time, saying he had dominion over all the worlds secrets and he loved nothing more then somebody finding out about him. Knowing his secret gave him power over them. "Lord Akylios forbids the enslavement of ocean creatures... what are you doing here? Shoo, away with you!" The audio abruptly cut out with a sound not unlike a pop from a cork being the last thing transmitted.
Traumatized, Velvet had been placed under the care of an orphanage in Sinnoh, being the closest region even though she was native Unovan. She rapidly learned the language, her developing psychic powers assisting her in that respect. Her power attracted a lot of negative attention in the orphanage, and Lucian was contacted by the matron, who had taken 'problem' children off her hands before. He took Velvet under his wing, helping her develop her talent and eventually assisting her become a Trainer. It wasn't that she had any particular desire to be a trainer, but she wanted to travel, and the safest way to do that was with several Pokemon at your back.
Lucian had given her a Bronzor, descended from his very own Bronzong. She quickly found out walking sucked... a lot. She made it her mission to find a Pokemon that could carry her. She searched high and low, but after trying and failing to catch a Doduo a Tauros charged her. Fortunately, Chime intercepted the attack. Focusing her ire through her pendant, she gave a withering glare to the Tauros as Chime lulled it to sleep. Paralyzed and asleep, the Tauros was easily caught after a fast Dream Eater.
She heard about the Eclipse League competition through her e-mail correspondence with Lucian. He had recommended her for it, stating the cash prize could fund many things, including an expedition to the bottom of the ocean to find out the truth behind her mother's death.

Updated my post with pokemon stats and backstory. On a side note, I see you posted the game on rpol, but don't have any threads yet. Are we free to go ahead and send in our application or do you want us to wait a little longer?

Yeah, you can go ahead and start sending in applications. Sorry if this is moving slower than you guys would like, I'm just not familiar with the proper procedure for getting a PbP game started, and I'm tying to make sure everything is in order so nothing goes wrong in the early stages. I'm just used to everything being a lot more direct, communication wise.

So, everyone's added to the game. For those of you more versed in PbP procedure, what all is there left to do before we can get started? I assume that everyone needs to edit in their character stuff on Rpol first, then we can start posting in the main thread to get the story rolling.
