Open The Fight to Survive

Storm Earth and Fire

Storm Earth and Fire

Would you like to make a contract?
Steelfount is a broken city. Many Pokemon and people live in it's confines. This city is crowded, poor, and impoverished. Many people and Pokemon are homeless, living in alleys between grimy apartment complexes, or even on the streetfronts. Crime is rampant. All hope is lost for those homeless, and it doesn't seem much better for the people within their small, cramped, and dirty apartments. Shanty towns appear outside town.

this RP details the lives of people and Pokemon living the the city i described above. you can choose to be a human or a Pokemon. remember that this city is essentially a dystopia. life is dreary, dangerous, and dull. seems easy, right? well, for the most part it is. no legendaries, and keep in mind we are in a city, we don't need giants bringing the whole place down. Feel free to be a part of the city's administration, mayor, cop, and whatnot. And said folks' Pokemon. Most Pokemon cannot talk directly with humans, and humans cannot talk directly with Pokemon. No legendaries, please.

Name: Alain
Species: Espeon
Age: 40
Gender: Male
Trainer?: No.
Habitat: An alleyway between 2 tenement blocks, with small not-profitable businesses on the ground floors.
Background Info.: He was born to a family living in the city a while back, when everything was far better than it is now. He grew alongside his owner, evolving into an Espeon, but eventually times grew rough, and Alain's owner eventually died on the streets, unable to continue living.
 
Name: Diera
Species: Houndoom
Age: 35 (I'm assuming it's dog years? XD)
Gender: Female
Trainer?: None
Habitat: A set of alleys that wind into each other, with her 'territory' ending at a crumbled alcove that serves as her den.
Personality: Quick to anger and fierce in battle, Deira is a study in contrasts. Outside of battle she tends to join up with other Pokemon temporarily to even the odds. She also enjoys chasing after those who she thinks are doing wrong, and can be extremely judgemental. At the first whiff of a fight though, she becomes ferocious, not caring what happens to her or the others around her. Friendships are cast away, and nothing, nothing at all, is more important than winning the fight. A long time with others avoiding her has left her half-hopeful for help, and also cuttingly cynical about the realities of her world.
Background Info: Diera was raised by a cop, and was intended to be his Pokemon when she evolved. However, she was tossed away when she first tracked down an opponent in training, nearly ripping the other Pokemon limb from limb. Left on the streets, she didn't begrudge the cop for throwing her away, and teamed up with others to up their chances of surviving for long. Her savage behaviour made her infamous on the streets, and pretty soon she was left alone completely, with others avoiding her like the plague.
Notes: None
 
Name: Rane "Rampage" Kingster
Species: Aggron
Age: 35
Gender: Male
Trainer?: No
Habitat: Wherever he wants actually, but where he currently stays is in a big, old house, which can collapse anytime.
Personality: Raised up knowing that the only way to survive is to "kill or be killed", he doesn't care about others. He is normally very hot-headed and short-tempered, and he can rampage if he doesn't get it how he wants.

He is very easy controlled, as he relies on his strength, not his mind. He can be kinda stupid sometimes.
Background Info.: Nah.
Notes:

I'll probably add more later, as I don't have the time now.
 
Name: Violet
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Pokemon owned (if applicable): Kate the Rattata. (Found as a baby in her "house")
Place of residence: The basement of an abandoned house. The boards over one of the windows in the back are loose, and she can just barely get in from there.
Personality: She rarely talks to other people and is very shy. Tries to just avoid everyone and everything when she's outside, and even then it's usually only to look for food. She's protective of Kate, her only friend, (Who is usually in her hoodie pocket) and really doesn't know anyone else.
Background Info.: Nope.
Notes:
 
Name:Skylit
Species: Noctowl

Today's weather was bad, again. Alain didn't know if that was because the city was an overall gloomy place or what, but he didn't like this. The sky was gray, overcast, and the air was damp. He stood at the opening of the alleyway that was his home, his tail gently wagging and reading the weather. Alain looked up. A raindrop hit him in the face. He wiped himself off and scrambled back into a cardboard box, covered with a plastic bag to prevent soaking, and laid down to rest.
 
Fuzen had just escaped capture after causing chaos as a toaster, and was hiding from the rain in a long alleyway.
"That was close... I'm not very good at escaping am I..."
He looked up at the miserable sky, and wondered how he would survive today.
 
Diera was both far from her usual territory, and wet. Not the best thing for a lone Houndoom, especially one with no control. Calmness melting away as she felt more rain hit her fur, she stopped scrounging for food and sprinted to whatever cover she could find. Skidding into an alleyway, she froze. A cardboard box, covered with a bag... and an Espeon inside? Oh no. She would probably be driven off verbally, or ignored if she tried to get some shelter with another Pokemon. Snorting, she turned around and started to head back, the water on her back steaming as she tried to keep dry with her own fire powers.

"Graaaa" Rine stopped snoring and opened his eyes. He stood up from the old madrass on the floor. He scratched the back of his horn.

"YOU RATTATA BETTER GET OUT OF MY MADRASS!" He kicked the madrass and hordes of thin, hungry Rattata sprang out, even a Raticate.

"Better!" He roared, then walked downstairs. As always, he slept on the top floor, the 2nd floor. The stairs creaked and made loud cracking noices as Rine stomped down it for his normal breakfast, scrap metal. He had already eaten the fridge, the oven and most of the other furniture in the house.

"Time ter move. The house doesn't have anymore food for meh. I better find maself a better, nicer house with lots of metal in it." He kicked the door open and walked outside, scrounging for food.

He walked down a long alley, picking up everything of metal and putting it in his mouth. Rine preferred steel items most, but iron was good too, but bronze was crap.

He scared some humans as he enterred one of the more busy roads, by busy, I mean, 5 or so people on a 5 meter thick road.

Of course, no-one would like to meet Rine when he was angry.
 
Violet sprinted into an alley, and over to a window a few inches above the ground. Pulling aside a couple boards covering where the glass had been, she squeezed in and dropped down to the floor. It was only somewhat warmer inside, but dry. A Rattata
scampered over to her, looking hopeful.
"Sorry Kate, nothing. Freaking rain."
It probably had no clue what that meant, but at least could tell that her owners' pockets were empty. Violet sat down on the floor, exhausted. She looked at her wet hair and sighed, frustrated. Kate squeaked in response and climbed up the torn wallpaper and went outside, looking around carefully for a garbage can. The tiny Pokemon scampered by, unnoticed by humans. She watched an Aggron walking by, and ran faster.

Alain sat and watched as life was disrupted by the rain. Everyone seemed to share his distaste for the rain, evident as the homeless all ran for cover. He levitated himself and his box, rotating it to face a nearby garbage can. He tipped it over and quickly sifted out the goods, the stuff some of the stuffier folks living in fancier apartments didn't like, not that that was saying much in this district. It was hardly the government district, which was still something like bright and shiny. Alain ended up with a meagre pile of food. He spotted a Rattata scampering around. Alain, being an altruist ever since he came upon the realization of just how horrid living conditions for almost everyone had become, separated some of the food into a smaller pile, and told the Rattata, "Please, have some."
He heard the pounding steps of someone coming from behind. He mentally checked and discovered an Aggron barrelling down the alley.
 
Xaicra was sleeping in his hole when a loud crash abruptly went off, waking up the tyranitar.

"Now what?" he muttered to nobody in particular, as he exited the building. He looked around and saw nothing out of the orinary; the usual bustling of all the lowlifes around here.

That, and there's an Aggron on a rampage dwon another one of these allies. Fantastic

With that, he made his way towards another alley. It was time for a meal.
 
Tsukikage twitched his ears, rings glowing. There was something approaching nearby. It was fairly large, much larger than himself. A monstrous creature, it was. He stood up, growling softly.
 
Fuzen heard loud footsteps outside the alleyway, and as he looked out, he saw an Aggron walking past. He ducked into the shadows, looking for an escape route if he needed one, and noticed an Espeon and a Rattata.
Should I talk to them...? I hope they aren't mean... He thought to himself, suddenly oblivious to his surroundings.
