TWO YEARS AGO, A CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION GOING BY THE NAME TEAM IMUM WRECKED CHAOS ACROSS THE LAND, DAMAGING CITIES AND KILLING THOUSANDS OF CITIZENS. While Imum itself has long since been disbanded, however, the region remains broken: entire towns have been laid to waste and the Association struggles to find homes for those who were lucky enough to survive the attempted genocide. Reconstruction trudges on as usual... but with three factions - the Association, the corporations, and the people - each wishing to take the rebuilding of an entire region down opposite paths, how long will it be before Lyeant's last leg gives out permanently?

first activity check is currently underway. regardless of your green status, please be sure to check it out and make extra sure your characters make it safe and sound after the eighth of march.

we're officially re-opened! come check out our event, the pokeathlon forever to enjoy some fresh restart activities. let leap know if there are any skin bugs, and they'll be sorted out accordingly!
Care to hear about our lord and savior Operation: Mindcrime? In all seriousness: Hello, hello! I'm Pharaoh Leap – or just Leap – local head admin and rock opera enthusiast. On the rare chance you catch me in a time when I'm not bawling about characters entirely written into song, you may see me actually doing work around the site, like skinning, making too many characters, and encouraging others to also make too many characters. I only know how to write angst, and in no fewer than six trillion words an app or post, so if you like dying while reading like I like dying while writing, I'm the girl for you. ;o
Howdy guys! The names Astro and I am your resident Brit & Red muse (you'll honestly see me more on him than any of my other characters). I'm a moderator and my main job is to make sure everything is running smoothly so the Admins can focus on other things, you'll often see me within the apps and shops, etc when I'm not on Red. What can I say about myself? Apart from being a Red fanboy I like music and games and yaoi huehue, I honestly never now what to put into these sort of things but ohwell, I'm more of a "ask me and I'll tell" sorta guy. Anyway, from my personally I hope that you enjoy the site and what we produce here but also if you're new, please look around and if you like what you see please consider joining for rad plots that everyone gives! :D
Hey there~ Nano over here! I uh.. Wait, I'm doing this right, right? Bleh. So I'm a moderator over here - fun, fun - who kind of just.. Keeps an eye on everyone. You know, the whole app thing and what not. Uh.. Lets see.. When I'm not doing school work (because I may or may not be trying to be a good student) I'm probably storming up new ideas like events and etc. Or plots. Plots are always good, too. As you can see, I uh.. Have the horrible habit of making way too many characters. I swear, I was tempted with plots, ships and angst. It's like, the holy trinity. Uh.. What else is there about me? Oh, right! Please excuse my obnoxiousness. I'm just really loud in general so don't be surprised if I start screaming as loudly as I can caps. So yeah. Nice meeting you!

[attr="class","scrolly"]As a general rule Sapph ends up with a large group of friends, especially with Pokemon. But them aside, I expect she would be very close to anyone around her age within the Republic and real protective of them too. She won't let anyone hurt those important to her and if they do then you'll have one pretty much rabid wild girl out for blood. The Hoenn Dex Holders (so Ruby, Emerald and probably Wally) are her current friends. She sees the Kanto and Johto Dex Holders as more like teachers and/or Seniors.
enemies
[attr="class","scrolly"]Anyone who stands in front of her stopping her from achieving her goals? People who are out to destroy the world? Those who hurt Pokemon for sure. If she sees anyone hurting Pokemon (not matter who or where they're from) Sapph will be out there trying to beat them. To a pulp. Either with her Pokemon or her bare hands.
lovers
[attr="class","scrolly"]I want all the Ships? Just throw em at me and I'll see what I can do In all seriousness, Sapph has a large crush on Ruby but has had to keep all her feelings a secret because she doesn't think he looks at her the same way. Even after the ORAS saga (which I won't spoil). But she'll be a hard nut to crack if it's not Ruby since it took Ruby a while to unintentionally get through.
others
[attr="class","scrolly"]Teachers, Mentors and the lot. If you've got anything else, throw em at me yo!
[attr="class","scrolly2"]Surge isn't really out to make friends. He just wants to battle the strongest opponents that he can and triumph over them. However I see him having a connection with Fini, Lele and Bulu since the four of the are Tapus and Surge has a certain respect for his fellow Land Spirits. That aside... maybe trainers who he's fought and acknowledged as strong? I could see him finding friends in people who try to show him that battling isn't the only way to go.
enemies
[attr="class","scrolly2"]He doesn't really care enough about this who quarrel thing to make any enemies there but Surge will find an enemy of anyone who opposes him really. Or threatens to hurt what he has (such as Melemele Island or the other Tapus)
lovers
[attr="class","scrolly2"]Just give me the ships yo. It'll take some time for Surge to open up to anyone love-wise so you would have to really make an impression. But totally open for ideas here.
[attr="class","scrolly"]Her only true friends have been her two Pokemon Niji (Milotic) and Ruu (Dragonair) however Ren is always on the lookout for friends. The reason being that she doesn't have any is because her mother forced her to be so focused on winning at skating that she didn't have the time to make any. Although she can sometimes be difficult to approach, Rena would love some true friends.
enemies
[attr="class","scrolly"]At the current point in time Rena only has her skating rival Valeriya Yuna who she sees as more of a stubborn friendship but I'm putting this here because of rival reasons. Overall she's not actually the kind of person who makes enemies unless the truly disagree with her motives and desires.
lovers
[attr="class","scrolly"]Completely open for ideas here! Although it will take a while for her to warm up to anyone.

SAPPHIRE&WHITE
So these two are pretty opposite but I'm pretty sure that White has a lot of friendship and strong feelings about Sapphire in the fact that she's so similar to Black. Maybe they happened upon one another and got to talking and found out they were both dex holders or maybe the professors put them in contact and White found she was soothed by Sapph's presence because she was reminded of her lost friend. Also, White has a lot of similar traits to Ruby so I bet they probably could have bonded over the fact that they both seem like someone the other cares about. Also, dex holder girls are the best and they could probably just kick everyone's ass and train together, too. White is always eager to learn more about Pokemon and who better to learn from than someone like Sapph?

Akemi and Ares So, I feel like I should preface this with "I still need to read the manga but I read a lot of Bulbapedia articles for this". Anyway! So Celebi was involved in the aftermath of Groudon and Kyogre's fight and the near-destruction of Hoenn, in that Celebi was the one to finally remove the Orbs from Archie and Maxie's presence and (mostly) destroy them, and then bring back to life the people who had died because of the conflict. As a result, Akemi doesn't really know Groudon and Kyogre personally so much as have them be one of the few people Akemi can manage to dislike a little bit. This is mostly because Akemi has this horrible habit of being near just about every possible world-ending disaster at some point. Why... why are Groudon and Kyogre like this... do they even know how much work it takes to clean up after them... seriously... But mostly I have it in my head that all the legendaries who know Akemi, even if they know they tend to mean well, tend to get exasperated at their 90% forgetting people and being in too confusing a temporal state to try to keep up with. So maybe we should do something? I don't know what- I don't think Groudon knows that Celebi (at least attempted) to destroy the orbs that could control him (unless you contradict me on this), which may be a point in Akemi's favor, but it should also be fun to have a thread where Akemi is actually exasperated with someone else instead of, like, the other way around? I don't know tag me if you want to do something.
Akemi and Sapphire Okay so Akemi has the worst memory in the history of ever, but they do at least sort of remember the dex holders they see because they're just those kinds of people. And I'm like 80% sure Akemi met Sapphire as Celebi once, if you want to do anything. I mean, Akemi's not going to know nearly as much about them as they know about the pretty Ruby one and the pretty Gold one, but what can you do? So it could be fun to do something here, too? I don't have any specific ideas here, but I need actual threads. So.
Akemi and Surge Akemi has one Pokemon and it's a Meganium, which doesn't exactly scream "strength". On the other hand, they're a time legendary that probably radiates power to the right people. Honestly I'm just throwing this one in because I might as well plot with all of your characters if I'm going to plot with you, because they're all here. So if you have any specific ideas, I'm down with that. If you have no specific ideas, I'm also down with that.

I swear, once I get all my characters done, plotting will be much easier. Until then, I'm gonna throw at you one of (key words: one of) my strongest characters at your strength-obsessed Tapu because I dunno, this seems like the best course of action right now. :'D[break][break]
So Lorelei is actually the leader of the now-gone Team Imum, but she's basically gotten a huge appearance overhaul and now works as an assassin for Parallax, gettin' stab happy with anyone that her boss, a high ranking Parallax official, sees as a threat to Parallax and their ways. Now, as a bodyguard alone, Surge probably wouldn't pose much of a threat, but considering how strong he is, I figured that it probably wouldn't be too out there to assume that maybe her boss would want him gone for preventive measures. Like a "this guy's tough, so we should get him out of the way before he actually starts causing problems" sort of deal.[break][break]
Now, Lorelei's one tough cookie. So is Surge, clearly, and I don't see a legendary gijinka going down so easily. I figure this could end as a sort of draw where both come out with a respect for the other's strength? Lorelei's not really attacking him out of spite, either (it's a long story, but she basically has no choice but to follow orders), so maybe after the initial "AH, WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME", they can - well, not like each other, but probably not hate each other, either. Have a friendly battle next time they bump into each other. Er, well, as friendly as a battle-obsessed god and a stab happy mercenary can get, I suppose. But - what say you? c:
WHITE MOORE I agree with you here on all fronts. Sapph would see Ruby in White (but don't worry about the horrible nicknames. She won't do that because she has respect for everyone who's basically not Ruby) and feel the need to get close to her in order to get that familiarity. ALL THE TRAINING! Sapph would be SO EXCITED to have someone like White to train with. They could get nice and strong, Sapph with all the sparkle eyes over it because she doesn't get to meet too many girls her age who are interested in getting stronger.
Ares I feel that Ares honestly wouldn't care. So Celebi stopped their rampage - it wasn't Celebi's fault. It was the human's fault for letting Celebi do so. He doesn't blame Celebi for what happened >.> Honestly I'm happy to start something because it would be interesting I think. As Groudon, Ares would know of Celebi's existence and as mentioned about know that the orbs were destroyed. But he would be happy to start a clean slate.... as long as Akemi didn't get in the way of him expanding his territory or destroying stuff. That's a big nono and the only ones who do that are Kyogre and Raquaza for obvs reasons.
Sapph SO CUTE I WANNA HUG HIM >.> Sapphire has met Akemi as Celebi before, but only briefly when Ruby released Celebi from the Pokeball to save the world. I think she'd be real suprised when it turned out that Celebi was now human and wandering around, but happy to share about herself and get to know Celebi as Akemi. ^^
Surge I think Surge would be attracted to Celebi due to the energy they radiate as a fellow legendary Pokemon. But then he'll probably be like 'oh I thought you were strong' and pout a bit. xD It could be a really cute thread actually if you wanna do it!
LORELEI ACKERMANN YES FIGHT ME STRONG PERSON! ALL THE FIGHTS! SURGE WANTS TO FITE Don't think he'd feel too strongly about not being seen as a threat... simply bodyguard or not xD But he would definitely have respect for Lorelei is he ever found out her situation, the loss of power positions and her power in and of itself. I mean he's not a total jerkward. But I am SO DOWN FOR THIS. Surge's first reaction will probably be 'FINALLY SOMEONE I CAN FIGHT' after the 'OHSHITE WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME' thing. BUT SO DOWN FOR THIS.

Akemi and others I'm gonna say that I love all three ideas? It'd still be fun for Akemi and Ares to meet because Akemi is still a little sore over the 'you almost ended the world, you idiot' thing. Akemi... might get in the way of him, though, if he started destroying things. If only by fixing them. That's their thing- they fix the numerous things that break. Sapphire, meanwhile... yes. Very good. Hug the small leaf child. Akemi will be confused but they will like it and it will be good. And lastly, as for Surge, that does sound like a combination of adorable and silly that would be fun! Akemi's Meganium would spend the entire time making faces at Surge, probably, most likely. So really, all of the above sounds like a great time! Is there any set of them that you'd prefer to do? I'm up for whichever threads you'd like to have happen, be it all, one, or in between!
@xerneas + @tapukoko friendship • loveship • hateship • other
Okay so. HI. HELLO THERE. WANNA PLOT?
Pandora is anything BUT a fighter. All of her pokemon are tiny little babies. Tiny, weak little babies that need to be taken care of to grow up bit and strong. Knowing her, she might actually ask Koko to battle her and when he finds out that a legendary has such a weak team he's gonna be like 'the hell is this'.
WHICH, might I add, WILL ALSO CAUSE HER TO WANT TO MEDDLE WITH HIM. While they are easy to take down, just wait until they grow up. Xerneas' pokemon aren't exactly the best as of now, but they have some pretty good potential in them.
BASICALLY WHAT I'M REQUESTING IS FIGHT LEGENDARY THINKING THEY ARE STRONG, ONLY TO BE DISAPPOINTED BY BABY TEAM. BABY TEAM LOOKS UP TO STRONG TEAM, BABY XERXER TRIES TO LEARN FROM KOKO AND TEACHES HIM THAT BATTLING ISN'T ALL THAT IMPORTANT.
Yes? No? Maybe? Add? Subtract? Duplicate? HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT.
Although I do have to say my preference would be for Akemi/Ares as a thread because that sounds awesome as a start!
@xerneas
may I just say... HELLA YAS. KNOCK TAPU DOWN A FEW STEPS HE NEEDS IT. UGH JUST YES AND I CAN START THIS ANYDAY B/C I CAN'T ADD ANYTHING JUST YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS
In all seriousness, Sapph has a large crush on Ruby but has had to keep all her feelings a secret because she doesn't think he looks at her the same way. Even after the ORAS saga (which I won't spoil). But she'll be a hard nut to crack if it's not Ruby since it took Ruby a while to unintentionally get through.
