Team Rocket: A new beginning

Postby Chase Ricks » Sun Mar 10, 2013 2:21 pm

This is a brand new rp. Original characters of mine I might use here are taken from my Gaia Journal or from my deviantArt.com journal only and no other website I am currently a member of except for one on Yahoo Groups. Any similarities to storylines not found on Tugs are completely coincidental.

If interested in joining, please leave a comment here. I'll post the suggested outline later today. Only characters from the videogames and movies besides my oc's are legal in this rp which means if you haven't played Pokemon in a long time dust off your N64/Gamecube/Wii/ Gameboy/ Gameboy Color/ Gameboy Advance/ DS and buy some games on Ebay or at Gamestop. Good luck and may you choose your pokemon wisely.

It has been many years since the renegade Team Rocket member George Ketcum caused the Vermillion base to go up in flames and Giovanni with it. The forces of Team Rocket, only recently reformed, had fled in miscellany. One contingent had led the way to a secret base far from Vermillion.

It was here, in secrecy that they rebuilt their forces. It was here that they created a new base of operations hidden beyond the view of the authorities.

Rockets had infiltrated some hospitals in the hope of finding some way to counter the effects of Team Plasma, the Team which, in times past, had tricked Natski into believing the Rockets had betrayed her.

Yes, Team Plasma... were a source of worry. The name Team Rocket became more a legend than a threat. Any dealings the Rocket's made remained secretive and many thought them no more than rumours. They were wrong to think that.

After Kaito Chakra had stumbled into the base with Mistress Eon in tow she had started building an offensive front. Her attentions turned to weapons and armoury, obsessively build up the defenses of
their new home, and was the first to leave the base in search of power. The peaceful negotiator, the diplomat, it seemed was no more. This new Chakra was confident in her abilities and dark in her demeanor. She was not about to let anyone walk all over her OR her Team.

They had taken their Time, allowed Plasma to think that perhaps, just perhaps, they had truly won.
If Plasma thought that they were wrong. If George Ketchum and the Pokemon World League, they were wrong.

Kaito Chakra has taken her place as the Boss of Team Rocket, and uses the absentee vote of an Eon no one has seen active in far, far too long to keep her position of power and to pass her mandates... and to
pass the mandates of those she held... dear... for whatever reasons.

Natski has been promoted, given power in the organization. The cynical believe this may be simply because Natski knows more of Omega than the others, because she had had past contact with Shadow...

The girl known as Susan has been given power in name, if not in purpose due to her links to the past... her parents in times past were famous... perhaps not as the successes they should have been, but none the less they were her reason for being a rocket.

Amiboshi travels between the base and the gang led by Nakago periodically, keeping it informed of... business.

Suboshi isn't faring as well as his brother under the new regime. Amiboshi accepts Chakra's will as in times old... Suboshi isn't quite as happy to do so. His attitude has been seen as outright hostility,
and Chakra has placed a tail on the boy, letting on that she believes he could turn to Omega.

All those above have had their own projects... their own missions during the rebuilding. Some have built up leagues of contacts, others have been working on technology. Some have been catching the pokemon
they believe will bring Team Rocket to glory once again.

Those within the order come and go as they please, with the power to do so... or at least that is what they believe, although Chakra keeps close tabs on any who leave. And yet they come... and they go.

Good trainers storyline: A message from Boss Natski has been intercepted by the Pokemon World League. Gym trainers all over the different regions are believed to be in danger of kidnapping from Tream Rocket and replaced by Junior Executives. Your job is to investigate every gym in each city you visit and determine if the leader has been kidnapped or not. If so, before you can earn a Badge you have to defeat the Executive in each Gym and the trainers with them to learn the whereabouts of the missing leader and then rescue them.

Team Plasma storyline: They believe pokemon should have the right to live freely and work hard in order to create a world where trainers are no longer necessary. Their leader Ghetsis wants to find the legendary pokemon dragons and use them to change the heart's of everyone to embrace their cause. Unlike Team Rocket, Team Plasma does not kidnap good trainers unless they are caught snooping around their rallies or hideouts. Beware Ghetsis. If encountered, he will attempt to trick you into giving him your pokemon using flattery.

This storyline is based on Pokemon FireRed/ Leafgreen as well as on Pokemon White and Black 2. I have changed or clarified names as I see fit as well as my superiors in Team Rocket have ordered me to do so.

Here are the rules.

1) You can choose to be a regular trainer, member of Team Rocket, member of Team Plasma, or a member of the Pokemon World League. If you are unsure which suits you best then stick with being a trainer. Good (regular) trainers will start in Pallet Town and receive their first pokemon from Professor Oak. Team Rocket members start in Viridian City and receive their first pokemon from Boss Kaito. Team Plasma members begin in Pewter City and receive their first pokemon from Ghetsis.

2) There are two types of random battles in this rp. The first is against pokemon because as we all should know, defeating them is how you gain experience while capturing them is how you make a stronger team. The second type of battles are against rival trainers. Unlike wild pokemon, you can never escape a trainer battle and you always receive money when you win.

3) However should you lose a trainer battle, half of your money is taken by your opponent and you are taken to the last Pokemon Center you visited. However if the other trainer happens to be a member of Team Rocket or Team Plasma, if your character is good, then you will be captured by them as a prisoner and must either escape or wait to be rescued by your teammates.

4) Because it is a dangerous world, all trainers regardless of how powerful they are travel in pairs. These can be m/m, f/f or even f/m pairings. Nothing above PG 13 content will be allowed in this rp so be careful how you decide to do bondage training with your partner. The rule of it is this: If it is too mature for teenagers to view, it is too mature for here. You and your partner will rely on each other in trainer battles except for Gym battles. If one member of a team is captured, their partner will have to rescue them by defeating their captors in trainer battles. If they feel they are too weak to do this, Officer Jenny will be sent in to assist or an agent of the Pokemon World League if you and your partner are good. Should you be a member of Team Rocket, an Executive will come to your aid. In the case of Team Plasma, it will be a Sage.

5) All pokemon used in this rp are actual ones used in the games. George, the Sages and Executives, Gym Leaders, Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy will be played by me as well as pokemon battles. All other characters except those I have named in the Story outline post are to be played by those who choose to join this rp.

6) Pay attention to pokemon types at all time. When a random pokemon battle begins I will list the pokemon type(s) of what you are battling. I'll say this only once so read carefully. Poison type moves have no effect on Steel type pokemon. Ground type moves have no effect on Ghost or Flying type Pokemon. Normal and Fighting type moves have no effect on Ghosts.

If you have any questions, just leave me a comment here. Let the fun begin.

You may create a good trainer and an evil trainer if you so wish. By doing so, they become rivals and will battle each other continually throughout the storyline. However these rule will be in effect.

1) Rival trainers can only battle if they are in the same location and there are no other trainers there they have not already defeated first.

2) No taking shortcuts ie having your rival trainer's character earn a Gym Badge by battling a Gym Leader if your other character is already in that gym first. This also means your rival can not use a Hidden Move (HM) until they have earned it after your character has by performing certain tasks throughout the rp. I'll give more info on this as it takes place.

What's the character sheet look like?
You are q immortal

Re: Team Rocket- The end of Giovanni and a new beginning

Postby Chase Ricks » Sun Mar 10, 2013 9:23 pm

This is an example of what the character sheet looks like.

Name: George Ketchum (Before I get accused of copying my original character, this story was originally created in 2005 online on another website I am still a member of and he no longer is evil.)

Gender: Male
Age: 30

Physical appearance: 5' 5, 200 pounds.


Background info/Brief Character outline: Before he became a member of Team Rocket, he had set out to become the World’s Greatest Pokemon Master. He succeeded for a few years in being the Pokemon Champion, but was corrupted by the feeling of power when he was finally defeated. After that he joined Team Rocket and worked his way up through the ranks until George became a close, personal friend of
Giovanni. While not a scientist, he was put in charge of making the original Mewtwo by Giovanni himself because of how much the boss trusted him. But since the result was a disaster, he has been doing what he can to amend that great mistake. This ultimately resulted him in taking on a personal quest to destroy the former legendary Team Rocket boss, Giovanni and driving Team Rocket out of Kanto for several years.

Personality: He has his good days and he has his bad days. On his good days, he walks around wearing his Pokemon World League uniform. On his bad days, he walks around beside his pokemon. If you see him on a bad day, either be prepared to battle or else be very nice and then try not to make him get mad.

(Main) Pokemon owned: Cerb (Pikachu), Urza (Mew), and Digger (Dugtrio).

Any other information: George is currently protected from psychics and others who use telepathy to look into the minds of other people unnoticed. This is due to the fact that Urza projects a mindshield around George, even while in battle or in its pokeball.

Postby Zandor » Sun Mar 10, 2013 9:37 pm

Name:Zanor

Gender:male
Age:15

Background: Zanor is like every trainer, except, that hes a bit more snoopy... he tends to depend on his two pokemon, as they are his only friends as far as hes concerned.... he had a sister... whom is evil unlike him.
He may be 15 but trys to act older, which has gotten him in trouble before.
Personality: he spends his time thinking of new things, new ways to try to make the world better... but if were to meet him, you would think him a different person.

Pokemo: Zarm (chameleon) and Tragor ( amphrados)
physical appearance: 4'5 130 pounds

Re: Team Rocket- The end of Giovanni and a new beginning

Postby Chase Ricks » Sun Mar 10, 2013 9:38 pm

Name: Kaito Chakra

Position: Boss of Team Rocket

Gender: Female

Age: Appears to be in her early 20s.

Physical appearance:
She is a tall girl, with an imposing demeanor and a slight smirk. Her once soft gaze and dreamy hazel eyes have grown harder and colder over the years, such that now her gaze is seemingly never without thought, and her eyes are dark and cool... and often taunting.
The distinctive ringed hairstyle of old is gone, replaced by a simple ponytail, and her hair has been streaked with black, any traces of the purple that used to reside amongst her pale brown locks long gone. She is rarely seen without the flowing black trenchcoat she showed up at the base in, or without the ring on a gold chain around her neck.

Background info/Brief Character outline:
In the times of old this girl was peaceful to a fault. She ressurrected Team Rocket alongside her old friend Eon, the lady of many names, and set about restoring it to its former glory. With experience training in the police force alongside the Jennies of tomorrow she soon decided she wasn't enough of a clone to go ahead with it... and so she slipped ever so slightly, turning her knowledge and abilities to a more interesting use.

Chakra, despite running TR, was not a full frontal thief... she was subtle. If anything she was a good guy dabbling in the dark arts, someone who seemed almost out of place.
Her weapon wasn't power but rather words... diplomacy can get you anywhere. It can even get you a license to set up an organization no one knows anything about if you know the right people. Chakra did.

Things, however, never go as smoothly as is wanted. Team Rocket swiftly became known, and was swiftly targeted by newer organizations.
And yet she and the team she helped to lead... they were a Team. They never backed down...

Chakra's nature let her fall.
She was protective of her friend Eon, such that when she fell into a coma she kept the girl around under constant surveillance. And she was careful enough to make sure all her decisions were knowledge based...

She was a smart girl with a careful analytical mind, didn't seem to be one to take risks, let alone stupid ones.
And yet when the base set alight she didn't leave.

Nothing was known of her from that point on, at least not until she showed up at the new base with her eyes dark and her mind shrouded.
Her appearance had grown harsher due to pursued travel and she told them all what had happened to the base- that it had been destroyed. That everything in there had been lost.
Then she resumed command once again...
But the girl was ever changed.

(Main) Pokemon owned:
She hasn't used any pokemon lately- she hasn't really had the need inside the base, but if I recall correctly hers were;
Slowking, Tyrantitar, Haunter, Corsola, Rapidash and Skiploom
I recall her mentioning a Gardevoir during her 'escape' too.

Any other information:
She has the ability to warp space around her, although she rarely if ever uses it.
She is resistant to attempts at mind control, but is unable to receive or send telepathic communications.
She has a knack with computers :)

Professor Oak greets you when you enter his lab. You can see an older trainer there too and he will be your partner. "Welcome to the world of Pokemon, Zanor. I see you have two pokemon already, but I'm afraid you are not experienced enough to handle them in their evolved forms without having a Gym Badge. Until you can defeat a Gym Leader and show me his badge as proof, I'm afraid George here will have to teach you the proper way to battle, train and raise pokemon."

George smiles at Zanor. "If you are upset take it out on me, not Professor Oak. I'm here in the Kanto region as a direct representative of the Pokemon World League and it is my job to make certain all new trainers learn the proper method of things with my old mentor here in his retirement years." He shows you two pokeballs. "In one of this is a water type pokemon and in the other a grass type. For now please choose one and we can begin your training."

He hands you the pokeball. "Go ahead and name your pokemon and let them out." Professor Oak sighs. "Remember George, the last time you had a battle here in my lab you had only young pokemon with you and still your potential back then was so great I had an electrical fire."

George groans in memory. He takes the pokeballs off his waist and puts them inside the nearby computer. before withdrawing a brand new one that was stored inside. "This one will serve as your test battle pokemon Zarvon. If you can defeat it, then you might have what it takes to become a pokemon master like me."

"It's okay my friend," George whispers before he opens up his pokeball. A timid Bulbasaur comes out. "Zarvon, you only have to defeat my pokemon to win this battle. That is all. Bulbasaur, use your Tackle attack." The grass pokemon charges lightly at Namora.

"I'm sorry, but that is not a legal move Zarvon," says Professor Oak. "Your pokemon is a Squirtle and only knows Scratch and Tail Whip. Please try again."

OOC: Like I said, only real pokemon from the games. The same with the moves too. Because you have a beginning pokemon, its moves are starter ones too.

After a few minutes, both pokemon look exhausted. George calls his Bulbasaur back into its Pokeball and hands it to Professor Oak so he can heal it. "Zarvon, you have to remember not to treat your pokemon too harshly in battle. While they can defend you from other pokemon, as a trainer you are responsible for feeding them, ensuring they do not get sick while traveling and not letting them faint before you can reach a Poke Center."

"My apologies Zanor," said Professor Oak. "Like George said I am getting a bit old and do not remember new names very easily." He took his pokeball and put it into his lab machine and soon his pokemon was fully healed. "Now George, what were you telling me before this trainer came in?"

"Team Rocket's back Professor Oak," George said simply. "Fifteen years ago I thought I had dismantled them when I destroyed their headquarters at the time and Giovanni was killed in the inferno that broke out. But the Pokemon World League has recently uncovered evidence that they are back and scheming to get revenge on those who help out new trainers like us and also on Team Plasma too for sabotaging their efforts to track down MewTwo."

"Yes that's correct Zanor," said George. "When I was a teenager, I helped at the time to take down their organization. Team Rocket can be compared to the mafia but instead of using guns they use pokemon. Blackmail, bribery, extortion, sabotage and violence are all tricks of their trade. They have only one goal: To capture or steal rare pokemon all over the world. I work for pokemon law enforcement to stop brutality against trainers everywhere."

"If we encounter them Zanor it is highly likely they will be more interested in capturing my pokemon then yours," George said. "A trainer with out a single badge and only a single pokemon is not a threat in their eyes as compared to me." Heading toward Professor Oak's computer, he entered his private code and withdrew his team and then deposited his Bulbasaur. "If we should come against them, these will draw their attention far more then your pokemon. But for security reasons, I can not allow you to see my team outside of battle because they are extremely rare and high leveled powerful pokemon."
