Welcome to the world of Pokemon. This world is filled with amazing creatures of all size and shapes, known as Pokemon. People and Pokemon have forged a life together. They life, work, play, laugh and cry together daily and both Pokemon and people have benefited from this bond. The most popular form of this bond is a sport known as Pokemon Battling where both Pokemon and the Trainer's hard work and bond are tested in the flames of battle.

Pokemon Battling has become so popular that tournaments known as Pokemon Leagues have sprouted up in almost all regions and there are even local Pokemon Battle Competitions and Tournaments in many towns and cities outside of the official leagues. Now joining this trend is the famous Pokemon Safari Park, simply known as Zara's Park. Zara's Park is the world's largest Pokemon Safari Park, consisting of over 355700 square miles used to host Pokemon from all regions that all live and interacting with each other. The park offers an easy way for one to examine and wander the park's land for a price, and for a bit more they can get a license to battle and catch Pokemon with the park.

With park attendance at the lowest it has ever been, Zara's Park manager, Professor Zizi, have set up a grand tournament to generate revenue and attract Battlers as a new audience for the park. The park attracted many tourists of all kinds from all regions, and even some park Rangers have decided to put their hat in the ring as the prize is the total amount of 5 million cash, and the title of the first champion of Zara's Park.

3. Participants will be given a 'Pokemon Ward' to clear an area of Pokemon for roughly 30 minutes before battle. Participants MUST use this ward before battling outside of a park settlement. Wards have a single use and Participants will be given a new Ward upon visiting a Park Center. In Park Settlements, Participants must battle within specified Battle Fields.

OOC Rules & Misc.

1. Site Rules apply to the RP.
2. Swearing is not allowed at all so keep the RP PG as much as possible. I'm sure most people are fine with dark subjects but no blood, obsessive violence, sexual imagery and such.
3. NO LEGENDARY STARTERS!!!
4. In the Park, they have their own currency known as Park Cash, or 'PC'. Normally Visitors can buy PC with 1 PC being 20

. Participants can earn 5 PC for every battle they win against another Participants or 500 PC by beating a Ranger Captain. PC is used for everything from buying Pokeballs to meals in restaurants.
5. Mega-Evolution will be a thing, but you will not be able to get it right off the bat.
6. Understand that if you are primarily going to RP as a person. You can RP as your pokemon if you wish, but remember that they'll most likely going to in your pokeball like 80% of the time.
7. Battles are going to be more like the Anime. Stats and Status will play a secondary role as Tactics, Skill and Strategy will be the primary factor in winning. Don't be an idiot however. A elderly, wild Charizard will more then likely decimate your trained and fresh Bulbasaur.

Name: Dylan McColl

Age: 26

Gender: Male

Region of Origin: Hoenn

Occupation: Daycare employee. Trainer on Hiatus.

Appearance: (Right so after about 50 mins of looking i'm just gonna write it up)
Dylan stands at 6' 2" with muscled, olive, tanned skin crisp from years of roughing it in the hoenn wild with his pokemon. He has dark brown hair with hazel eyes and a refined jaw. He wears a bright red bandanna with a white pokeball symbol on it granted to him by Flannery around his arm, close to his shoulder. He can usually be found in a plain black t-shirt, loose fitting track pants and an old pair of sneakers.

Background: Dylan is one of the few trainers to collect all gym badges of the region they are in, and one of the even fewer trainers to navigate their way through victory road and challenge the elite four. However, that is where his success ended. Unable to pass the elite four, he would train for years to try and achieve his goal of champion. But despite all the effort he put in, he never once managed to catch a glimpse of the fabled Steven Stone.

Giving up hope, and realising he was in a rut, Dylan conferred with his team and they decided it was time for a break. They had been going hard for the past few years and it was evident that at some point they had worn themselves too thin. Some R&R was due. Thus, he and his team travelled back home and signed up for the local daycare. Dylan would continue to work there while his pokemon enjoyed their hard earned relaxation, for merely a year befofe he heard of the Tournament.

Viewing it as the greatest opportunity to start anew and figure out where he went wrong, Dylan said goodbye to his team and badges and headed towards Zara Park. Along the way, he encountered a Poochyena he quickly found himself befriending. Eventually capturing the Poochyena, due to mutual agreement, he named him Sam. With that done, the two headed off to the park.

Personality: Dylan is an awkward sort of person, used to being disconnected from any strong emotions, which can lead to him being generally fractured when it comes to social situations or anything involving feelings. He's also prone to pushing himself and others further than they can go in the name of a goal, which is why he and his team could never get to their goal. He has a sort of wanderlust, in the sense that being outside and travelling with his pokemon is the one thing he can say he really, truely enjoys with all his heart.

Name: Riley Moore
Age: 34
Gender: Female
Region of Origin: Hoenn
Occupation: Pokémon Daycare Owner
Appearance: Riley stands at 5'3" with lightly tanned skin from playing outside with pokemon. She has long curly blonde hair that is usually tied up in a ponytail and pale blue eyes. She is a little on the heavier side, but doesn't like to let that stop her from doing what she wants to do. She doesn't wear crazy fancy clothes, mostly just consisting of tank tops, shorts and trainers, and sometimes a baseball cap.
Background: Riley has always worked at the daycare. Her parents owned it first, then their parents before them, and so on and so forth, so it was only natural that Riley took over it when her parents retired early. She's worked there ever since then, providing jobs for people in the community and helping to raise pokémon that were anything from unwanted, wild, or had just been left to train. In recent days, though, the daycare has come across tough times. Less and less people are wanting to leave their pokémon, so the daycare was being used less and less. So, when Riley, a competent battler, heard about Zara's Park Tournament, she just had to go for it, and it's big prize. She took a pokemon that she had found abandoned a few years ago, and headed off to the park.
Personality: Riley's whole purpose in life is to make pokémon happy. It's a goal she takes very seriously, and is willing to sacrifice anything to complete it. Though to pokémon she is friendly, to people she can be very stern, usually only letting up when she gets to know the person quite well. She's a stubborn woman, and once she's got her mind set on something, good luck getting her to change it.

Name: Jared Rayner
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Region of Origin: Sinnoh (Originally Hoenn)
Occupation: Guitarist

Appearance:
View attachment 1482
Jared stands at 6’0. His shoulder length brown hair is complimented by his green-gray eyes and his ivory skin. Used to a colder environment, Jared is often seen in a long-sleeve black button-up shirt with a red undershirt and blue jeans. His signature Red & Black bass guitar is normally kept in its guitar case, which he keeps slung around his shoulder.

Background: Growing up in Hoenn, Jared had your typical trainer’s life. Travelling around the region at a young age, collecting gym badges and eventually challenging Victory Road itself. He got far, finally losing to Drake right before being able to challenge Steven.

His heart broken by the loss, he and his team decided to move out to the Sinnoh region, eventually finding a permanent home in Hearthome City. There he cultivated his skill in the bass guitar, a passion he discovered after a friend in Sootopolis introduced him to the magical instrument.

He’d spent a few years retired from battling, building a reputation as a musician when he caught wind of the Zara’s Park tournament and had the flame of battle in his heart reignited. He asked his Hoenn team to cheer him on, leaving for the park with a Shinx he saved from a really angry Croagunk one day named, Kovu. Hoping to find greater success here then he ever had in Hoenn.

Personality: Jared’s a pretty laid-back guy, preferring to make friends with the people he battles and performing music to make them smile. He loves Pokémon with all his heart, treating them with the same empathy and compassion that he treats his fellow human with, sometimes even more.
