    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all.

Closed Look Good, Boogie Down, Strut Your Stuff: A Super Contest RP!

The premise:

One of the main attractions in Hearthome City (and elsewhere) is the Super Contest Hall. There, coordinators come in droves in their best outfits to show off their best Pokemon in hopes they can walk away with a ribbon for being the coolest, most beautiful, cutest, smartest, or toughest. To add to the pressure even more, TV crews and photographers are also present, ready to beam the winners around the world.

You play a coordinator that is just beginning their foray into the Super Contest world. You are fully aware of the riches and glory that come from being a contest superstar--but you also know that the road to stardom will not be easy. Can you rise above your opening night jitters and the drama behind the scenes and win your first ribbon?

Sign up here in detail with the following information:

Name: What's your character's name?
Age: How old is your character?
Appearance: What does your character look like on a typical day (no pictures, please)
Personality: What is your character like?
Contest Specialty: Which of the five types of contests are you the best at?
Costume: What kind of costume do you wear on the Contest stage? (nothing too suggestive, please)
Pokemon: What Pokemon are you entering in this Contest?

Some information about the three sections of the Contest:

Visual: You are given 60 seconds to dress up your Pokemon with a set of predefined Accessories (You don't know what you get until you open the Mystery Fashion Cases in each dressing room). When all have finished their attempt at a coherent outfit, all four participants will then show their Pokemon. The best dressed Pokemon wins.

Dance: Each coordinator and Pokemon dance together on a stage similar to a DDR machine, only rather than follow sparkling arrows on a screen to a beat, the coordinator and Pokemon may do whatever moves they wish, providing one of the two touches one of the four arrows on the stage at any time. (These arrows are located in the four cardinal directions) Points are taken off if an arrow is not touched during the performance. Make it through the song while remembering to touch an arrow to win.

Acting: Put on an act incorporating your Pokemon's moves and appeal to the judges and the audience! Well coordinated acts raise the judge's voltage, and if you max it out...I'll leave you to discover the boost you get.

I'll post my character later.

Okay! You're all accepted and some spots are open still, so we'll wait for a few more takers before we start.

Here's my character:

Name: Maya

Age: 16

Appearance: Her nut brown hair is usually tied back in a ponytail, lending to her tall and muscular air. Usually, she wears a tie-dye shirt (usually without words on them, as she appriciates them for the designs more), black pants, and black shoes. She also wears a ruby ring on her left hand for luck.

Personality: Maya is very friendly and laid back, leaving some to guess she's not that talkative, but she is actually quite willing to talk. On the Contest stage, she proves that she is more talkative than she appears. In addition, she is a little aloof when around new people and situations. This is not because she is shy, but only because she wants to know if the new person would be worth her time. She will show her bad side if angered, provoked, or under a lot of stress.

Contest Specialty: Cool

Costume: Maya chooses to take the persona of a showgirl onstage, so her costume consists of a white shirt, sparkly red jacket, black pants, black shoes, and a black top hat with a red stripe on it.

Contest Pokemon: female Pikachu, named Lita
 
Name: Ella
Age: 12
Appearance: Ella has dark black hair and blue eyes, with pale skin. Her usual outfit consists of a tight black spaghetti-strap that doesn't cover her stomach, and some beige slacks, with some low-heel black shoes.
Personality: Ella isn't really talkative, and can sometimes be quite rude or snobby. She does care a lot for those that are close to her. She's also willing to make sacrifices, and is somewhat stubborn.
Contest Specialty: Cool
Costume: She wears a sparkly red dress, with some light silver high heels, gold bracelets, and a necklace, which has three small crystals on a golden chain.
Pokemon: Charizard, nicknamed Nafter
 
Fwee! I don't know how good/bad at this I'll be but hey, I'll give it a try!

Name: Yuki
Age: 10
Appearance: Yuki has butt-length dirty-blond hair. She wears a sleeveless black top that shows her stomach and a sleeveless coat over it. The coat is always opened, allowing people to see her shirt. The coat's neck comes up around her face a bit. (C'mon people. bear with me! You know what I'm talking about, right?) It's blue with black on the neck and on part of the sleeves. There's a red heart on the back that looks like the Kingdom Hearts heart. (*shot* KH obsessed...) The coat goes down to her ankles. She has flare leg blue jeans and tennis shoes on as well.

Her eyes are blue. She's 4'10" and has some freckles. She has glasses, but it doesn't affect how she looks much.
Personality: Yuki is a happy-go-lucky, laid back girl without a care in the world. She honest and (unlike me. *shot*) very social. She's kindhearted, free spirited and a bit lazy as well. She's also a bit shy.
Contest Specialty: Cute
Costume: A dress that looks much like her coat. Sleeveless and the neck comes around her face. But, it's a much lighter blue in color with white for the majority of the dress. It has glitter on it and goes the her knees.
Pokemon: Eevee;Fluffy;Persistent

(I'd like to get started. And sorry. I wanted to use my game character. Which happens to be a male named Shadow...)
 
Okay then, here we go!

"Here we are, sweetie." I cooed to the Pikachu perched on my shoulder as we stepped inside the Hearthome square. "This is Hearthome City."

"Pika?" Lita was interested in the familiar brown roof of the Gym towering over the roofs of houses, as well as the crowds of people streaming by us.

"Oh, no no, we're not here to battle--not this time." I replied. Lita sulked for a moment as I approached the magnificent dome of the Super Contest hall. "This is why we're here today."

"Chu..." Lita's tiny Pikachu eyes widened at the beautiful brown dome. I let her look for a few minutes before stepping inside.

It turned out there were no contests underway today, the only ones present were staff, a few bystanders, and people I presumed to be the judges. A few others were in the costume store, looking over various outfits they could pick from to wear in the contest. I vaguely remembered my grandma boring me with stories about all the outfits she wore, and how she wished to see me in a similar dress.

What Grandma didn't know was, dresses were not suited to all the running, jumping, climbing, and other adventures I got into daily.

So getting a suitable outfit was first.

"Pikachu?" Lita asked as we strolled into the costume store and began browsing through the various sparkly jackets.

"While the contests will be about you and your moves, I need to look pretty too." I explained as I selected a jacket from the rack.

"Chu..." Lita looked displeased with my first choice, a black sparkly jacket.

"Pika..." My next choice, a purple one, was rejected too.
 
Aria gave her Lucario a red Poffin. Safira downed it satisfyingly, standing up quickly. "I'm ready," she said.
"Let's go to the Contest, then," Aria replied. The duo headed off to the dome-shaped building that was the Contest Hall. The human went off to change into a Lucario costume.
When she emerged, the two went up to the counter. "I'd like to register for a contest, please," said Aria politely.
 
"So, Starr? You hungry?"

Edward's Staravia chirped.

"Sounds like a yes!"

Edward fished a blue Poffin from his bag and fed it to Starr.

"Ready for a contest?"

"Starr!"

((Sorry in a hurry for no apparent reason as always.))
 
Jack finally arrived in Hearthome City. He and his trusty team had been pretty good at battling, but what he wanted to do most was participate in contest. He didn't know what lured him to it, but he like the flair and style of Contests. As he walked up to the counter, with his Spoink, Jumpup, by his side, and all dressed up like a little Spoink, he asked the person inside what he wanted to say for much of his life.
"Can I sign up for a contest, please?"
 
"How about this one, then?" I asked Lita, showing off a red sparkly jacket.

"Pika!" Lita seemed to like that one, so red it was. I had the perfect white shirt to go with it, and of course, my signature black pants and shoes.

As we made our way to the checkout counter, Lita looked piqued in the hat rack. "You think I need a hat to finish my costume?" Lita nodded. She then frantically pointed out some top hats towards the top of the rack.

I just laughed as I grabbed a black top hat with red band around it--Lita always thought I'd make a great emcee or showgirl.

After paying for our stuff and trying it on to be sure it fit, I approached the counter, which was already filling up with people signing up for the next contest, which was to take place tomorrow.

"I'd like to register, please." I told the woman at the counter.

"Okay, just fill out one of these." she replied as she handed me an entry form.

I took a pen from the desk and began filling in my info and Lita's.
 
I wrote down my info first, then Safira's. She watched carefully, to stop me before I made any typos. The Lucario closed her eyes; I could tell that she was looking at my aura. She knew I was nervous. "Just try your best," she soothed.
 
"Okay."

Minutes later, the duo arrived at the contest hall.

"Anything interesting you want to wear?"

Starr looked at a pair of small blue bracelets and chirped to Edward.

"Wearing those on your legs?" Edward tried them on Starr, who looked lovely in them. He began to sign up for a Contest.
