Posting mine in a seperate thread, due to how long the post turned out to be.

Username: Dusk
Character Name: Katelyn
Legendary Wanted:Articuno
Example Post: Enraged cries rang through the entire cavern, loud enough to be heard by those approaching it through the series of tunnels that connected the cave complex. Every now and then the noise would stop as the culprit of the shrieks tried to attack the metal bars surrounding them, stopping them from being free.

Standing taller than some the scientists that braved the racket to study it, the large bird pokémon could only open its blue wings partially before they touched either side of its prison. The top the cage was only a few inches higher than its head, causing the crown of dark blue feathers it possessed to brush against the bars, ruffling them. It’s long tail feathers that would normally trail behind it as it flew where curled around it’s legs to prevent them from going outside the cage.

Despite its general dishevelled appearance due to being imprisoned, to Katelyn it was one of the most beautiful pokémon she’d ever seen. Entering the cavern, having come from the main recruitment cavern, she stopped still as she saw the bird pokémon, watching as it struggled to get free.

Yet another victim to Obsidian’s plans, she knew the chance of the pokémon getting free now that it was in Obsidians claws were close to 0. It would be kept in the cage till it was broken, then passed to a deserving member and made to take part in the Teams plans, whether it wanted to or not.

Forcing herself to look away as guilt began to build up she walked to where a dark haired man was standing. He was dressed in a black suit, and as she approached her turned around, revealing the white mask he was wearing. Spotting her he nodded, before speaking. “Katelyn. If you are here then you must have received your starter. I trust it is satisfactory, and not one of those useless things the Doctor sometimes gives out?”

“Yes Sir” Katelyn stopped as she replied, bowing her head to the man in front of her, before holding up the pokéball she had recently acquired. “And yes, it will be useful”

“Good. I am pleased” he man turned away again, looking back to the caged pokémon who was still trying to break free. There was a pause as he just watched, before finally speaking again. “You’re wondering why I delayed your journey, and called you here, aren’t you?”

“Yes Sir” When she’d been told he wanted to see her she’d been surprised. He rarely talked to her directly, using Obsidian members as go betweens.

“Do you know what this is?” He pointed to the pokémon in front of them.

“No Sir” There was a hint of confusion in her voice, unsure as to why he was asking.

“It is an Articuno, the freeze pokémon. And also one of the so called ‘Legendary species’. Magnificent, isn’t it?

For a second Katelyn just looked at him in surprise. She knew that Team Obsidian did occasionally get hold of legendary pokémon, but she was still confused as to why she had been called to see it. “Yes it is, Sir....” she paused, wondering whether or not she should ask about her purpose here, but before she could the masked man held out an ultra ball to her.”Sir?”

“One of the reason ‘legendary pokémon’ are called such are because of their resistance to capture. They will only go into the ball if they want to. So far this one refuses to hence the cage”

“I’m sorry Sir, I don’t know why you are telling me this” The girl was looking at the ball, confusion written on her face.

“I’m telling you this because I want you to get it into the ball. It will be useful on your journey, will it not?” Before she could reply he placed the ball in her hands, and began to walk out gesturing to the other scientists to follow. “We will leave you alone. With your abilities there is a chance it will listen to you. Don’t disappoint me”

As they left Katelyn just stared a t the ball in her hands, before looking up to the pokémon in front of her, the man’s last words ringing in her ears. ”Don’t disappoint me.”

---------------

It wanted to get out. Not being able to spread its wings, to fly away, was torture to the pokémon. All the humans milling around it, observing it didn’t help either. Already they’d tried several times to force into one of the spherical contraptions the humans used but it resisted. It didn’t want to be a slave.

The Articuno let out another screech, before realising something. All the humans had left. All except one, one it hadn’t seen before. For the first time it stopped struggling, curious about the girl that now stood in front of it. Its eyes took in the yellow and black sphere in her hands, but she was different than the others that had used them, unsure, nervous.

For a while the pair just looked at each other, until the girl looked away, her hand tightening around the ball at the same time, yet she still didn’t use it. Why?

~You. Why don’t you try and enslave me like the others?~ The chirped words came out before the pokémon could remind itself humans didn’t understand. At least not normally.

“Because it won’t work” The reply, though in human surprised the bird. How had she understood?

~You can understand? And why then do you stand before me with that device~

“Yes. And while I cannot forcefully catch you, I am expected to find a way to otherwise convince you”

~Why do they expect you to do what others older cannot? You are different aren’t you~ The girl flinched as the ice pokémon finished it’s sentence, confirming its thoughts. However it was still surprised when the child reached up and removed the clothe that was wrapped around her head, showing a pair of horns.

“I am part pokémon, part Houndoom. That is why I can understand you, why they think I can catch you”

Articuno tilted its head, trying to take in the statement. ~ Part pokémon? Did those humans...make you like this? Who are they? What do they want?~

For a while the girl didn’t reply, instead looking around the room as if avoiding looking at the pokémon in front of her. “Yes they did...” Her words were quite when she finally answered. “They are part of a group called Team Obsidian, as I am. They wish to use you in their plans. That man...he was the leader.”

~ You...you are one of them? Do you want to be?~

“I was ‘made’ to be one of them. As for if I want to be... I don’t know” She looked away again as she answered, seemingly confused about her feelings.

~If you don’t ‘catch’ me what will happen? Will someone else try~

“Yes. They will try and force you. You are too...rare to let go off. They will try to break you.”

The articuno thought other her words, curious about the girl, but also scared of this ‘organization’ it appeared to be in the grips of. ~Do...do you want to catch me?~

The question seemed to startle the girl, and she struggled for an answer. “I...I don’t know. If I don’t he’ll be angry, but I don’t want to do something you don’t want...”

The Articuno got the feeling there was something that wasn’t being said, a reason why she was following the masked mans wishes, despite her obvious reluctance. Yet it felt closer to her than the other humans, those that tried to force it while instead she was speaking to it, and seemed to care about how it thought. What is your name?~

Again he question came at a surprise. “Katelyn. Why?”

~I might as well know the name of the trainer I will let catch me~ Seeing the disbelief on her face it continued. ~You, you are different. Not just because you are part pokémon, but because... you won’t force me. You say that if you don’t catch me, others will try, until they find a way. If capture is inevitable, it might as well be to someone who actually appears to care about me~ Even as it spoke it wondered if the entire conversation had been a facade, a trick, but it forced itself to trust her. It seemed to be the best option. ~I will let you catch me, Katelyn~

All right if I reserve the Raikou? Should have the post up tomorrow; I'll edit it in this this post. =)

Username: PrettyMonster
Character Name: Karen Belle
Legendary Wanted: Riakou
Example Post:

The plain rippled and crackled. Route One was short and sweet, but a storm had set in, bringing darkness and black clouds with it. The land was shaded with an unnatural yellow, brought on by the storm suddenly appearing in the middle of the day. Pokemon and animals that had moments before been chirping and rustling were quiet. The trees and bushes stood at an unnatural attention, readying themselves for the oncoming downpour. It was lonely, it was silent, it was eerie. Anyone out in this weather would be considered a fool. And while Karen Belle was no fool, she was unlucky enough to be out. Her first day as a Trainer had proved fruitful at first; she had nabbed a very rare Pokemon along with her starter, and managed to capture more. Now things and taken a turn for the worst, with the worst case scenario having her turned into a charred corpse because of lightning.

She made patient and even steps. They echoed through the quiet landscape, where even the wind feared blowing. Her Pokemon were in their individual balls, resting in her jacket pocket. It was still warm, but she had bundled up, knowing the rain would come fast and hard and unexpected. She felt out of place. Everything was still and lifeless, like the world was holding its breath, while she was alive and moving. A road sign promised the next town was close, but she saw nothing to indicate this as truth. She hugged herself and felt the pop of static sting her fingertips. The air was charged and ready and waiting, but for what she couldn’t imagine.

A terrible roar sounded behind her. She jumped slightly, then stopped dead still as something blazed past her. It whipped up a breeze that almost knocked her from her feet. Whatever it was twisted and bounced and jumped by at such a speed she was stunned. She watched in awe as it circled around and stopped in front of her. A great beast, bigger than her, stood before her. It looked proud and powerful and strong. It’s body was a bright yellow with tribal stripes and a pure white belly. A purple cloud, almost looking like a cape, twisted and moved on it’s back, but amazing stayed in place. It’s tail was long and blue, with a matching set of ‘whiskers’ below a iron helmet. It had long claws and sharp teeth, the kind that could end her in a minute. Occasionally a spark of pure energy fizzled off of it.

But it’s eyes were what Karen stared at. Bright red orbs that watched her with a kind of intelligence she had never seen before.

It raised it’s head and spoke to her in a language she couldn’t understand, the language of Pokemon. When it was finished, she did not respond, only watched and pondered if it would kill her. She was afraid of it, but not enough to run and scream and cry. Her urge to study and inspect it was much to great for that. It was a beautiful specimen, and it looked just as curious about her as she was of it. Against her better judgment, Karen stepped towards it. It didn’t flinch or growl or move. It simply observed.

Karen felt pulled to this Pokemon, though she didn’t know why. This Pokemon was put on this earth to be hers and hers alone, and Karen was born to capture and care for this beast. It didn’t matter if their were a thousand of this Pokemon - and honestly she thought that there might have only been a handful- this one was hers and always would be. Karen raised her hand and continued to take slow, measured steps. She wanted to touch it. One little pet, even if she couldn’t own it, would suffice for now.

It’s head was cold and hard because of the helmet. It still stared deep into her eyes and didn’t show any signs of aggression or fear. She slowly moved her hand from it’s head to it’s back, and she stepped around to it’s side to pet. The fur was surprisingly soft. The cloud was light and fluffy, even with it’s odd appearance, and it soaked her hand with a light dew. This was a noble Pokemon, and twice as rare as the Eevee. Of this Karen was sure.

She could not battle this Pokemon. It was to beautiful and strong for such violence on her part. The most she could do was take out a ball and hope. And this Karen did. She took out one of her balls and she showed it to the Pokemon, then she placed it between it and her. It took it’s eyes from her just long enough to glance at the ball, then slowly pawed towards it. It sniffed it, then stared at Karen once again. It’s gaze seemed to pierce her very soul this time, and she knew it understood what she wanted. Eyes still on her, it placed one big paw on the ball.

Slowly it was turned to red data and pulled inside. The ball didn’t even shake. It just blinked once before it lay motionless. As soon as it did, thunder clapped overhead and rain poured and soaked through Karen’s clothes. Her hair was limp and dripping and stuck to her face, but jutted out in awkward, sharp angles as she bent down to pick up the ball. She had just done something amazing and unbelievable, but she would not report this to her superiors. They would want to take her new Pokemon for their own purposes, but it was not theirs. This would be her secret.

The moment over, Karen continued on her way to the next town.

Username: Dawnangel
Character Name: Lysander O’Brian
Legendary Wanted: Suicune
Example Post:

Rays of sunlight fell through holes in the canopy of trees above Professor Gabriel O’Brian, creating patches of shiny leaves on the forest floor between the trunks of trees that were darkened by shadows. Somewhere to the side of him there was the gentle sound of a running stream, the sound of which had gradually been growing more pronounced and clear. There were also occasional rustles in the bushes and trees around the Professor as he followed the Pokémon-made path. These were caused by Pokémon who were curious due to having never seen a human before and didn’t know the potential harm they could cause, but cautious as they weren’t used to humans and his presence intimated them to begin with. They were also curious of the faithful Ivysaur that trotted along behind the Professor. This choice wasn’t for the move cut, but that of sleep powder. He may have been connected to the evil and destructive Obsidian, but Gabriel had never let go of his conscience and felt no urge to hurt those around him, one thing that had made him feel like he didn’t belong at the labs, a feeling that had led him to once more journey on this quest of research, again leaving his wife and unborn child.

Gabriel pushed more leaves and branches out of the way, feeling his heart get heavier with guilt and disappointment each time he did. He had been out in the wild for the last week or so, and although he didn’t feel particularly lonely – he never did – he did wonder how his wife and child were doing. These thoughts led on to how they might cope when he was gone, a thing that had been playing on his mind for some time now and been growing more common as the time passed, ticking down. One thing he had wanted even more in the world than a child was to see his life work and research gain some sort of solid evidence or sights. That was what he was hoping to gain here, but he knew somewhere in the back of his mind that he would most certainly feel the disappointment on this island that he always did when on one of this field trips, and the anticipation and dread leading up to it.

Around him and Jayson, the trees were thinning and soon the beams of light weren’t restricted to only patched on the floor, but the whole large clear area in front of the Professor. The blades of grass were longer and lit up in the sun, flowers grew here and the stream he had heard earlier was now in sight, having come out of the forest a little further to his side, and curved around in the clearing. Pokémon played in the grass, enjoying the sun and clear skies, but there was one that really took his breath away, one that had been filling his dreams for years; a magnificent blue dog that stood at around six foot seven with a purple like cloak that flowed behind it in the gentle breeze.

He was frozen to the spot, standing and staring at the legendary creature of myth that was just calmly drinking from the stream, seemingly unaware of his presence though the Professor doubted. All thoughts had blown out of his mind at this incredible, mind-blowing scene and eventually he pulled himself together to slowly move into the clearing, making some of the wild Pokémon freeze and look his way. Some ran to what they deemed a safe distance, but others stayed where they were as they sensed that the man had no interest in them when he just walked slowly a little further in before sitting on the floor, rucksack going onto the floor beside him. He didn’t even have the mind to use his stool. Pulling out his notebook, he started making notes amid drawings of the beautiful creature that stood in reality before him. Some changes were also made to some of the sketches.

Each time he looked up to the Pokémon, he felt in awe, and strangely at peace, although there was still a conflict in his heart, and he felt a pang there as one time he glanced up, his eyes were met by those of Suicune’s. This research and knowledge he was gathering could never be seen by another human, and this made him feel slightly empty, but the alternative chilled him to the bone. What Obsidian would do to him if they found out he had had no intention to capture the legendary dog, to his family. They would suffer enough in the future, and that upset him enough, and he knew at that point as he looked into the eyes of the Pokémon that he would let his life’s work go to waste rather than threaten his family and this beautiful creature. His mind started to drift to thoughts of his son without him, something he couldn’t stand.

“Please...my body’s dying...my wife and I have an unborn child...I don’t want him to be alone...please...” Gabriel whispered softly, looking down at his notebook as he spoke, a single teardrop forming and falling, splashing onto the paper, sparkling in the light as it did so. Beside him, Jayson was quiet, knowing enough of his owner to sense he was upset. Looking up again, Gabriel couldn’t see Suicune and sighed, disappointed. A smile then spread, he may not have seen him long, but he had still been graced with his presence, an amazing opportunity and something he was very grateful of.

_______________________________________

A small eight year old orphan with blonde hair plastered to his forehead, sharp fingernails, and a red tail with a small, weak flame upon the end stood barefoot outside a building. His bare arms had goose bumps and upstanding hairs in the cold and rain. This, nor his threatened flame, seemed the focus of his attention, however, but the group of people gathered around the open back doors of the ambulance and the stretcher that was being placed in it. He watched with eyes that were filled with an angry shade of red, yet looked devastated, distant and lost, as his only friend, parent and comfort was taken away.

Out of sight amoung the cover of trees, a proud magnificent Pokémon stood, witnessing the breaking of the young Pokémorph’s heart. So clearly it remembered the pureness of another’s heart that had only looked for knowledge and understanding, not destruction or power, and the dying wish of that man.
