Quinn's Application [Complete]

[Quinn]

Character Name: Quinn Rio
Starting Region: Kanto
Trainer Class: Ranger
Starter Pokemon: Abra (I know it's not a starter, but it only knows Teleport, so may I?)
Starter Nickname: Sentra
Starter Gender: Male
Role Play Example:

“Hey,” the man asked with concern in his eyes, “are you okay? You look kind of sick...”

Quinn immediately straightened up and gave a bout of forced laughter. “I never get sick!” she boasted, though her face said otherwise. A light greenish cast washed over her cheeks as she leaned forward and hugged the Lapras's neck tighter. Quinn would never admit, even to herself, that seasickness was possible for her. She was, after all, extremely strong. Many had actually believed that she was virtually indestructible – she lifted impossibly heavy objects, and punching her usually resulted in broken knuckles. Nothing could ever harm me, she repeatedly told herself, especially not a little nausea!

The man who had so graciously ferried her to Route 21 looked a little dubious. “We're here,” he said, leading his Lapras along the coastline. Glad to finally see land again, Quinn scrambled to the shore and leaned against a nearby tree. “I'm only curious, but why did you want to come here in the first place?”

She brushed a few ginger strands of hair from her eyes to look at him properly. “Job hunting,” she replied. “After that fiasco in the Safari Zone, I figured Pokémon weren't for me.”

Here the man winced. He had seen the damage done there; somehow the girl had managed to lead a stampede of Kangaskhan right through the gates. “Don't blame it on the Pokémon. Maybe you should just try again, but with something a bit more low-key.” He paused and unclipped a Pokéball from his belt. “I got this one in the lottery a few days ago. It's pretty weak, though, so you'll have to train it. Want it?”

Hesitating slightly, Quinn reached forward and took it. However, this caused her to totter on the edge of the shore, her arms pinwheeling until she finally fell into the water with a large plop. Several feet inland, she reappeared sputtering water and clinging to dear land. The Pokéball was still clutched in her hand, but it was open – the Abra it previously contained was perched upon her head, calmly acting as if similar events happened every day.

“Thanks,” the girl gasped, weakly patting the small creature.

When the man seemed to get over the shock of watching someone almost drown, he smiled. “You two look like you'll get along well,” he said. “By the way, his name's Sentra.” He waved, tipping his hat a little, and he and the Lapras surfed their way back to Fuchsia City.

Based on the roleplay example, accepted!

But Joshua's gonna have to put in his two cents before we see if you can have the Abra.

[Jake]

Very nice job on the role play! *claps*

[Quinn]

*Bows floridly* Thank you!

[Jo]

I really see no problem with this. Feel free to start right away, but I'll need to know your other starter. I assume Nicola told you about this in the private messaging system?

[Nicola]

Yes, I told her. We're thinking that I can just run back to Pallet Town for some reason and we can bump into each other and travel together from there, doing Double Battles the whole way, at least until we get her Abra evolved and learning new moves. Would that be okay?

[Jo]

What? Why ask me? That's totally acceptable. It's up to you what you do.

[Nicola]

Super! I'll go make her Bio, then.

EDIT: Here's your Bio, Quinn! Have fun roleplaying! ^_^

[Cinder]

You know, its actually quite common for this, But instead of that, another option would have been... "Let the Abra have one other move, like Hidden Power for example." just sayin, lol. That's what I usually did with my Abra until it leveled up. Totally up to you guys though. Just thought I'd put in my own little two cents there.

[Nicola]

Hm, there's a thought. I'll ask Quinn about it later and see if she'd prefer that.

[Jake]

Remember, Twilli was an Abra I think in a lite rp, and I let him get 3 small TM moves.

[Quinn]

Oh! TMs! Why didn't I think of that? XD
