Open The Darkest Hour, again, but updated

Darksong

Back in action!
Thanks to Evoli for the plot idea.

The leader of Team Sol, Onko the Infernape, has been captured by humans. Darkrai was heard of, but since then has disappeared, and there is no trace of the nightmare. Team Sol has risen to get their leader back, but on the way, they face many obstacles that will be revealed through the RP. Become one of the lucky Pokémon to adventure around the world and everywhere on a journey that will change many Pokémon's lives forever.

Rules:
1. There was a big problem with this in the older RP. Do not make things up or change the plot without my permission! In the other RP, there were things such as Hands and Lightstruck Pokémon that I never intended to be there, so please don't do that. It actually upsets me a lot, so the breaking of this rule once will result in a warning. If you do it again afterwards, your character will be killed off, and any further posts by your character will be snubbed.
2. No godmoding, powerplaying, or Mary-Sues. Especially the first and third ones, but don't do any of them.
3. You can have unlimited characters. I don't really like limits that much.
4. No, do not pester me. To make sure that you've seen this, put a ten letter word in your form somewhere, but don't make it obvious.
5. Battles will be anime-style.
6. Keep harsh language to a minimum.
7. Please tell me if you will be gone for a while.
8. This takes place on Earth, but with Pokémon instead of animals. In the beginning, we will be in Canada.
9. Someone else may be leader, but I still control the plot, okay?
10. Please make your biography and personality at least a paragraph, which means this long:
(Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text).
11. You may not be a legendary.

My Character:

Name: Yoshikiseki Hikari
Gender: Female
Species: Totodile
Biography: Originally born in Japan, Hikari lived in her birth country for twelve years before she became a member of Team Sol. She lived with her mother and father, but when she was only three, her father was killed by a Feraligatr who wanted to be leader of the group. Grief-stricken, neither she nor her mother could do anything about it, and they were ruled by the ambitious leader. Hikari left to become a member of Team Sol so that she could become experienced enough to challenge the intruding Feraligatr, named Fervont, and win, saving her clan. She was trained for battle under Onko, the Infernape she admired. But one day, she disappeared, with signs of humans capturing her. Hikari doesn't know where her leader is, but is sure that somehow, she will get her back.
Personality: Hikari, despite her rather fearsome appearance, can be sensitive, especially towards others. She doesn't like to be accused of things, and isn't quite the most confident, either. She just wants to please everyone, but often ends up getting into trouble. She can be rather sassy, also. She's impatient and rather ambitious if she's not being sensitive, and usually doesn't consider their feelings unless they're quite obviously hurt. When she's not being sassy or stubborn, she can deeply care about others.
Appearance: Totodile
Other: I'm going to wait until someone joins to have a relationship, but she's probably going to have a crush on somebody.

Second form, unfinished.
Name: Onko Nantucket (couldn't think of anything else)
Gender: Female
Species: Infernape
Biography: She was born in the early spring, causing her flame to be slightly weaker, lowering her Special Attack stat. Her brother's name was Swift, and they were great friends. But then Swift was captured by Darkrai when Onko was nine, and she didn't see him again until she was 15, after she had evolved into a Monferno during a fierce battle. The last thing that made her evolve into an Infernape was being forced to kill Swift, since he was a threat to everyone, glowing with dark energy. She led Team Sol before she was captured. Originally, Team Sol was called Team Light, but she thought it was too practical and changed it. She and her team set out to defeat Darkrai, and succeeded in destroying not only the minions, but the nightmare itself. Then they headed off to find a new home near a volcano, but then Onko was captured.
Personality: Onko is friendly and has a good sense of humor. She likes to make jokes, and tries to make others laugh. She's also patient and willing to wait. However, she's easily unnerved, but confident when she needs to be. At least, that was before she was captured. Now, she's serious and easily angered, but she knows that someday, when she sees her old friends again, she'll try to cheer up and just be herself, not letting anything get to her too much.
Appearance: Her flame is slightly smaller than normal.
Other: Nothing, except for the fact that the word Dragonflys is misspelled. This does not refer to the title of the forums, which is spelled correctly.

Name: Prince Hikaru Kuroukarasu III
Gender: Male
Species: Magmar
Biography: Hikaru was the son of a royal family. He was the third Hikaru Kuroukarasu, so his name was "Prince Hikaru Kuroukarasu the Third." He was born in Japan, along with Sora, a Murkrow. He knew what was best for himself and tried to act like a normal Pokemon that didn't belong to a royal clan. He was careful about what he wanted and successfully prevented himself from being a spoiled brat. At the age of 14 he joined Team Sol.
Personality: Hikaru thinks his name is a mouthful of words, but usually pays no attention to it. He's noble and slightly stuck up, but unselfish and kind. Under a hard, impatient exterior lies a soft, friendly person. When the going gets tough, he's the one who gets going. He pays attention and tries his best to do every move in a mission correctly. He knows that it doesn't matter how wealthy you may be; money isn't everything and just because you have more doesn't mean you're superior to everyone else. He's protective of teammates and quick to think, even though his Defense isn't exactly high. He hopes one day to evolve even though he knows some people don't exactly appreciate Magmortar's existence.
Appearance: Magmar I'm currently thinking if I want to make anything special.
Other: Hitonigiri! This is not a reference to Naruto, mind you. Lately I've liked the name Hikaru.


Name: Prince Sora Kuroukarasu
Gender: Male
Species: Murkrow
Biography: Sora is the twin brother of Hikaru. He is the younger one and always followed in his brothers footsteps. He was never looked down upon, but never up to either. He lived a practically normal life, apart from a few incidents. He was the same age as his Magmar brother when he joined because, naturally, he decides things depending on what Hikaru does. He's always done his best to help the team, even if he hasn't participated in every single activity that's happened since his appearance in it.
Personality: Sora likes to lie low, but isn't antisocial. He has a hobby of making friends, and is a bit foolish. These two combined can cause a bit of trouble if he meets up with someone from the opposite team. He doesn't like to be inferior, but he also isn't too ambitious and likes to help those who need it. He's weak in combat, but strong in wits and never jumps into a problem, even if he's going to die in ten seconds. He's naive, but he can be a good teammate once you learn to use his good side to your advantage.
Appearance: Murkrow Again, currently thinking.
Other: Shrimpgame.

I got Alakazam and Stantler at the same time at the RSG!

Something makes me want Terry to join this...

I think you should add the rule "no legendaries..." Philly might want Latios again.
 
Name: Dr. Ruby Lehrer

Gender: Male

Species: Blaziken

Biography: He was born a Torchic, and raised by only his mother. He grew up very scholarly, and, when he was about 12, evolved into Combusken. He always wanted to become a Ph. D (Can we have those in this world?). He went to college and graduated after a few years, evolved into a Blaziken, and achieved his goal of becoming a Ph. D. He then went on to teach other Pokemon, and later became the Royal Adviser of Prince Hikaru Kuroukarasu III (If that's OK), due to his knowledge.

Personality: He is easily angered, due to his anger management problems. When he is angered he is very aggressive, and will not hesitate to beat you to a pulp. The main reason he works out is to relieve the anger and stress from his poor anger management.
When he is not angered he is quite calm and collected. He is a good friend to have do to his devotion to his friends, and would take a bullet for them. He is intelligent and easily answers most questions in class. He can be very sarcastic.

Appearance:
BlazikenShinySprite.gif


Other: I just noticed how much permission I asked, and that I was already mentioned in this RP. You guys were thinking of me... I'm touched.
 
Ph. D stands for Doctor of Philosophy. And I keep wanting to write Satands. I am not deserving of a Ph. D character due to my inability to spell stands.
 
Yeah, you were referring to me. In retrospect, I was a real noob then. Sorry.. :sweatdrop:

Name: Artemis ((Oh crap, last names? Are they mandatory?))
Gender: Female
Species: Gardevoir
Biography: Artemis grew up more or less alone with her parents in a forest, almost never leaving. Her mother taught her how to use different psychic abilities for when she evolved. When she was nine she heard of Team Light and really wanted to join. Both of her parents wouldn't let her leave to join, so she ran away during the night and joined anyway. Artemis was in Team Sol (When she joined, it was still Team Light). She spent almost her whole life now on the team. She had always been extremely loyal to Onko after being on the team for so long, and thinks helping to find her is the most obvious thing they need to do.
Personality: Artemis acts nothing like she looks like she should as a Gardevoir. If she were a human, she'd probably be considered a "tomboy" or more likely, just plain nuts. She jokes around a lot and doesn't seem to take anything seriously, often making fun of herself and others around her. In reality, she is merciless in fights and will do practically anything to accomplish a goal. A good friend to have in a fight or if you're in trouble, not so much if you have infuriated her over just about anything.
Appearance:

Other: Moo.
 
Okay, i admit I made a mistake last time. A Big one. And I'm not proud of it But I will return, and keep more on the down low. And to prove it, I'm going to make an entirely different character.

Name: Bitil
Gender: Male
Species: Scizor
Biography: Bitil was once a scizor who wandered without a care in the world. He lived like this until he was attacked by a Typhlosion when wandering too far into that creature's territory. He lay on the brink of death, until a member of Team Sol. After bringing Bitil to Where team Sol was at the moment, the member disappeared. Bitil learned of what happened after he was done healing. He has since then pledged loyalty to the team
Personality: As mentioned before, Bitil is extremely loyal to team Sol. because of the incident during which he was injured, he is a rather quiet, withdrawn being. In battle, he often stands back from a situation, analyzes it, and makes his move
Appearance: The black marks are the "scars" from his encounter with the Typhlosion
Other: I cna guess where you got the Team name from
 
You don't need to prove it. I forgive you, I'm just asking you not to do it again. And no last names are not mandatory. Accepted.
 
*revives* DON'T DIE?

Will we start soon? *checks rules*

OKAY!

Name: Wolf
Gender: Female
Species: Houndour
Biography: Wolf was born in a forest not far from Team Sol's base. She stayed with her mother until she was about two years old, and then started exploring the nearby areas. She didn't head south, however, until she was five. That was when she started hanging out with the team in her free time. When she was old enough to live by herself (16 dog years), she set out and gathered up enough courage to join them.
Personality: A natural leader, Wolf is about 21 dog years old. She's serious, and can be demanding, but otherwise she's friendly. She can be a bit sarcastic at times, but this is rather rare. Since she practically grew up with the team, she's used to all the members and hungers for revenge against "Fervont." She thinks deeply before padding into a situation, and would die protecting her team. She never gives up, no matter what, and is fierce when agitated.
Appearance: Houndour
Other: Eaglesummi.

All right, we'll start.

----------

Hikari squinted in the sunlight reflecting off the snow. Ouch...
She had already planned some of the mission. It would end in Japan, so that she could get her revenge. Her blood practically turned to magma when she thought of Fervont. How he would learn his lesson... she gritted her teeth.

Onko struggled with the bars like, obviously, a monkey. The fire on her head blazed but did not melt or make escape easier in any way. She groaned, but would not give up.
 
Bitil got up, stretching his wings as he did so.

Where would any clues be for finding our leader? We have no leads that I know of, I've yet to see those humans that took her... How can i help the team if I have nothing to work with?
 
Cryptica: Accepted. But even though she hungers for revenge against Fervont, she won't be able to actually battle him, all right? That's Hikari's thing.

She can still want to fight him, but she won't.


And right now I ask, does anyone want to be leader?
 
((Okay, that's fine. Hikari can be leader if she wants since you always complain about it))

Wolf yawned. "What're we doing next?" she asked groggily, padding in circles through the snow. Its iciness melted a bit as soon as she set paw on it; she was a Fire-type, with natural heat to her body.

--

Hikaru was walking around with Sora flying just above his head. He spotted Wolf and Hikari, and decided that he might as well stay with them.

"We're over here!" he shouted, and started to dash over.

--

Sora, Hikaru's brother the Murkrow, turned and flitted about crazily in the air, struggling to keep up with his kin's fast gait.
 
"To Calgary," Hikari said. "We're going there to conquer a group of Rattata who are threatening the country," the small Totodile added.

"Is it a big group?" Sora asked. "I like eating mice."

--

Hikaru breathed a few embers. They settled on the snow, flickering a bright orange and finally black and ashen. "So, we kill or defeat them?"

--

Wolf padded over to the group. "I'm strong with my Bite," she said.
 
Hikari said, "Probably just defeat. They'll probably return to the underground once their leader, a Raticate named Saw, has been defeated. We might kill him, but if we don't, he could get up to mischief again."
