I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was

[heavenlytiming]

This is pretty self-explanatory, isn't it?
○ Post with your character. You are now a resident of the world of Pokémon. Forget your original world. For this meme it'll be like you lived here your entire life.
○ Do the usual Name and series... HOWEVER! There is one other bit of information you must add... Tell us what sort of trainer you are ♥

Come up with something yourself or head on over to random.org and generate a number. The number you get will coorespond with one of the options below!



1. Protagonist - A wandering trainer who travels their region, taking on gyms along the way hopes on eventually making it to the Pokémon league and proving they are a TRUE Pokémon Master.

2. Gym Leader - An elite trainer who waits for challengers to come to them. Usually a specialist of a specific type, they test their opponents and hand over a Gym Badge to any who prove to be victorious!

3. Pokémon Breeder - A kind and nurturing sort of trainer who strives to breed and hatch and raise the perfect Pokémon.

4. Coordinator - A trainer who has moved away from the field of battle to take on a new stage. Whether it's the Razzledazzle of Pokémon contests, or the drama of Pokémon musicals they prove the a passion for pokémon doesn't always mean they have to fight.

5. Ace Trainer - They are the coolest of the cool trainers. A great strategist and a maker of balanced teams they definitely have their game together.

6. Elite Four - You are simply one of the best there is. Most normal opponents wouldn't stand a chance against your prowess.

7. Researcher - Your quest for knowledge has led you to a life dedicated to the research of everything Pokémon.

8. Evil Team Member - Whether it's Team Rocket, Magma, Aqua, Galactic, Plasma or an entirely new one no one has heard of before... you're here, you're causing trouble, and no one had better stand in your way.

9. Youngster - Hey! Aren't you too young to be a Trainer? Either way this kid doesn't care. They only care about their Ratatta. Because their Ratatta is the best in the whole world. It is in the top ten percentage of Ratatta in fact. They will call EVERYONE to let them know this fact. Because clearly they have the Chosen One of Ratatta.

10. Your Choice! - Pick one of the above options or hey! Pick your own. The Pokémon World is HUGE and I've only put up some of the more general and iconic classes there.

(If your character is in fact already a Pokémon character, then feel free to disreguard the above and post as normal ♥ Also... bonus points for letting us know your pokémon team!)

Rapunzel | Tangled | Pokémon Breeder | ota

[hairflyingheartpounding]

[Besides her trusty Keckleon, Rapunzel is currently raising a rather newly-hatched Smoochum.]

[thatshowitworks]

[Dick's been training to be the very best (like no one ever was) for about three years now, ever since he'd been able to get his license and his first Pokémon. It had been one of those typical uphill battles - he and his team had talent to spare, but they were young and there were a lot of tough trainers out there, so that fairly loft goal was still a little out of reach.

But none of that really mattered today as he and his team made their way to the next town, via bike. His Minun was sitting in the hood of his sweatshirt as he pedaled, and suddenly alerted him to the other person walking down the street. They were gaining on her, since she was you know. Walking and not on a bike, and Dick suddenly realized she was someone he knew.]

Oh, hey, Rapunzel!

Touchi Ai/"IC" | Inazuma Eleven | Coordinator

[oirokeice]

[Or at least, she says she's a Coordinator. But she just can't resist the draw of gym battles, either!

The only Pokemon she'd have out on a regular basis is her Snorunt, all of her other Pokemon (Haunter, Emolga, Bayleef, Dewgong, and Beautifly) are safely left in their Pokéballs.]

Hayami Tsurumasa | Inazuma Eleven GO | Researcher

[facedesk]

[Of course! But not the traditional kind. He has a bag hanging from his shoulders filled with papers and things, information he's gathered since he was little!

At his side is his loyal Accelgor, wandering around a bit and keeping an eye on his trainer.]

[naminoripiero]

[And where there is Hayami, there is Hamano.

... Or rather, most of the time. This time, Hamano's poking on ahead in some nearby bushes, Buizel at his side. Escavalier is standing guard as he does so, making sure no wild Pokémon try to attack his trainer from behind.]

Tony Stark | MCU | Researcher

[aggravating]

[He'll just be over here. Sitting on top of his Metagross and tinkering with something monumentally important.

His other pokémon (Pidgeot, Rotom, Gallade, Shieldon, and Monferno) are chilling inside their pokéballs for now.]

[angustifolium]

[Spencer was surrounded by books. His kind of research wasn't Tony's kind of research. Tony was more along the lines of Bill, though nobody doubted he'd improve Bill's systems by leaps and bounds.

No, Spencer was much more of a historian of the old mysteries, following in his mother's footsteps, and had his Stoutland napping at his side. Ivan was always within arm's reach of Doctor Reid - to the point where Reid tended to say he made all of his discoveries for Ivan instead of anyone else.

Just now, he was reading and writing at the same time with an air of expectation - as if he were finally on the edge of the breakthrough he'd been looking for.]

Dick Grayson | DC Comics | Protagonist

[theboywonder]

[Really, Dick kind of wants to be a Pokémon Ranger, but for now, going to gyms and acting like a normal fourteen year old trainer is the name of the game. You know, it's the perfect secret identity, and all that. Being the adopted kid of Crobatman isn't exactly easy.

His Minun generally hangs out in the hood of his sweatshirt - red, of course - and his other Pokémon (Charmeleon, Taillow, Umbreon, Riolu and Gyarados) are currently in their Pokéballs.]

I hope this is okay!

[onvioletwings]

[Hey, guess what.

The gym leader looks like he's(?) barely the same age as you, if that.

When Dick finally gets past the annoying puzzle of whatever sort and all the junior trainers, he'll find the leader reading, with a Natu perched on his head. The little bird looks up and notices the challenger and alerts its trainer with a few chirps.

It takes Hayabusa a moment to realize he has a challenger, but when he does, he sets his book aside.] Hey there!

Charles Xavier | X-Men: First Class | Gym Leader

[wedonot]

[Charles specializes in Psychic Pokémon (right now his team consists of Alakazam, Espeon, Gardevoir, Xatu and Reuniclus), and his gym doubles as a school for any kids with unusual abilities who want to learn better control in a safe environment.]

[leftinbasketforfbi]

[Reid has always known he was 'special'. He just never knew that there was actually a school/gym out there for kids like him.]

That trainer wasn't much of a graceful loser, was he?

[Reid approaches his teacher slowly, looking at the doors the furious trainer had stomped through. Honestly, that's what he gets for going up against a psychic gym leader with a team made exclusively of fighting types.

In his arms is his sleeping baby Abra, and his Lunatone trails lazily behind him. Realistically, he can get more Pokemon, but he prefers to train just with his current two. Once he feels comfortable with himself and what he can do, he intends to go out into the world and then think about creating a full Pokemon team.]

Does that ever get frustrating?

Aoba Kuronuma | Durarara!! | Youngster

[penetrated]

[Even if he's actually older than he looks...

Regardless, his Carvanha is the greatest of all Carvanha. And maybe it actually evolved into a Sharpedo and is now somewhat decent. Your call.

He also works part-time at the local gym!]

welp. guess who...

[2chan]

[ Mikado didn't exactly know why he became a trainer. Maybe it was because it was something any kid in the world would dream about to become that kind of persona. Or perhaps, he just didn't want to mentally rot away at home forever. But sometimes he hesitated on his choice, because combat of any kind of form wasn't really his thing. To be frank, he was extremely horrible at it.

A guy like him a trainer... What a laugh, right?

But he was about to venture off to challenge one of the local gyms, not even sure how he came to decide this in the first place. But he was going to do it. Somehow.

AND FOR THE LOVE OF VALHALLA, STOP SENDING HIM 600 EMAILS ABOUT YOUR DAMN CARVANHA!!! Guess it's time to mail Aoba back... ]

Did he really evolve this time?

Leon | Kingdom Hearts | Pokemon Law Officer

[itsleon]

[Hailing from one of the roughest parts of Orre, Leon had to grow up fast, working with a core group of friends to first survive, and then reclaim his hometown from the gangs that claimed his family. Now he acts as the sheriff of the town, although he's had to leave to track down Maleficent, the last of the gang leaders, and bring her to justice before she comes back for revenge.]

Hijiri Shinozuka | Iris Zero | Researcher

[predicting]

[Despite his... somewhat unprofessional demeanor, Hijiri's actually well-known for his research into Pokémon lifespans in the Kanto region!

But mostly he just wanders around like an idiot with his faithful Butterfree and collection of papers. And occasionally gives out starters to anyone who's unlucky enough to live near him.]

[frailflame]

[Unlucky? Atsuishi (or Heat, as he's known to his friends) is rather inclined to think otherwise. He's never really gotten his hopes up about receiving a starter.

... but that research really is fascinating.]

Etna / Disgaea / Gym Leader

[spearofbeauty]

[Etna's gym appears to be themed after Hell, and her team fits the theme as well, specializing in fire types: Magcargo, Blaziken, Chandelure, Houndoom, and also a Gyarados for dealing with those pesky ground-type challengers.]

[ruthless_hunter]

[Might as well add another badge to the collection.

Enter a large, pale man covered in tattoos and pokeballs strapped to his belt.]

Hoshifuru Kaguya ★ Inazuma Eleven GO ★ Pokémon Breeder

[backtothestars]

[ Eggs. Eggs everywhere.

He's not sure what to do with them all, so he put out a "free eggs" sign next to the pile he's currently sat at. ]

[onvioletwings]

[... He wants to know, and yet at the same time, he really doesn't. So just starin' at the egg pile, eyebrow quirked.]

Rikku | FFX-2 | Breeder

[disasterrific]

[So after helping her protagonist cousin save the world twice (and get back her boyfriend), Rikku decided to go 'screw it' and became a breeder! Mostly because she adores baby Pokémon.

And that's why she has a Wynaut, a Pichu, a Munchlax, and Happiny running around right now. She's got older Pokémon, obviously, but these are the new babies!]

Hazama / BlazBlue / Team Rocket

[ouroboros_troll]

[A well-dressed man with an Arbok hanging from his neck like a scarf stops you on your way into town.]

Sorry, buddy, but there's a toll to get past here.

[His Arbok punctuates this statement with a hiss.]

[suppressthedark]

[Well. Ichigo and the Houndoom at his side don't look quite intimidated.

At all.]

Yeah? Who says?

Whitney ♥ Pokemon HGSS ♥ Gym Leader of course

[spamsrollout]

[ So do you have what it takes to beat her behemoth of a Miltank on your first try? ]

[marrymedarling]

[Probably not, but that's not going to stop Rika from trying!

... Err, after she gets over how cute all of Whitney's Pokemon are, that is. If her Butterfree could facepalm at its trainer, it would.]

Michiko Baki / Original Character / Team Plasma

[moepurple]

[She's... really not doing a good job with attempting to "liberate" the Pokemon. All she's doing is urging trainers not to keep their Pokemon locked up in Pokeballs.]

[suppressthedark]

[Crap, why does he look like a little girl? Otherwise he'd just ignore her, but at least one of his pokemon (his scrafty, which amazingly mirrors his furrowed expression) is out of their pokeball, at least?]

Sorry, but I can't have them all out at once. It gets...crazy.

Urabe Rika | Inazuma Eleven | Coordinator

[marrymedarling]

[Err, sort of. She hasn't gotten very far in the way of earning ribbons yet.]

[likeaphoenix]

[Oh!!! Well, guess who's swooping down on his Braviary?
That's right, this cool kid is. He's landing right behind her of course, letting out a little sound of amusement instead of a real greeting.]

You seem busy, Rika.

Ikumi Unagiya | Bleach | Gym Leader (and/or your mom)

[bamfmilf]

[ Ikumi can usually be found in one of two places... in her Gym crushing opponents with her fighting type mons, namely her Sawk, Thoh, Conkeldurr, and Scrafty... ooor she's at home being a good mom... cooking dinner or checking up on her kid... totally the opposite of the terror she embodies in her gym. As looong as her kid is well behaved and calls her regularly that is! ]

FDJKFGJDK IKUMIIIII

[suppressthedark]

[....oh come the hell on, how is his part time job boss the gym leader in this region this is ridiculous]

....uh.

Carl Baki / Original Character / Gym Leader

[kamaohcurbstomp]

[Carl is in his gym, modeled after his military headquarters, and giving his Mankey, Riolu, Breloom and Heracross some encouragement and love while awaiting his next challenger.]

Karasu Yukihito | Inazuma Eleven | RIVAL

[honchkrow]

[KARASU WAS HERE, TOBITAKA'S A LOSER]

hope this is okay 'w'?

[prominency]

[ "BURN" IS A RIVAL TOO.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN TWO RIVALS CLASH?? ]

Deasta | Inazuma Eleven | Agent of Hell >8(((

[kawiwii]

[Somethings are just universal. It's his job to collect the souls of sinners and turn them into the Pokemon everyone knows and loves - Gastly, Spiritomb, Yamask... the works.

... When he's not snacking on souls, anyway. Whoops.]

[pickpocketangel]

[You and your soul-eating, Deasta.

Well, Colette's not going to judge, especially since you inadvertently sort of helped her out. In fact, she has a surprise for you!]

Deasta, Deasta! [She'll be running up to you now--and also tripping but she almost immediately picks herself back up.]

Kanji Tatsumi || Persona 4

[assrenovation]

[Believe it or not, he's actually a breeder, but you'd never guess it with the way he and his Manetric look.]

[swappedeggs]

[ She was looking for the breeder but she doesn't see one around derp.

Kris is towing a pichu on her head and a pokegear in her hand, looking very confused. ]

Um, excuse me, do you know where the breeder around here is?

Ichigo Kurosaki | Bleach | Protag (duh)

[suppressthedark]

[WANNA BE THE VERY BEST, LIKE NO ONE EVER WAS

Dare you go up against him or help him out???]

[predicting]

[ Okay I'm just going to fuse these two ideas together.

Behold, the renowned Prof. Shinozuka, currently serving as stand-in Gym Leader for the INSERT NAME HERE Gym while the actual Leader does plot-related things! Unfortunately, he doesn't take this job too seriously, which is why he'll be flicking a flower between his fingers when Ichigo beats his way past the other Trainers to him.

Did he appreciate the Gym being one big garden, at least? ]

Teddy Altman | Young Avengers | Protag

[son_of_vell]

[Maybe sometime in the future he'll settle down for another life but for now he's traveling the regions with his pokemon. Loyal Ditto almost always perched on his shoulder, he's set out to be the best trainer he can be.]

Mukuro Rokudo | Katekyo Hitman Reborn | Elite <s>Four</s> However-Many

[tofufu]

Mukuro entertains himself with a few magic tricks: making a coin disappear here, reappear there, shuffling playing cards in a fancy way with his deft fingers that is almost mesmerising. He's accompanied by a rather stern-looking Noctowl, the rest of the Pokeballs (containing Gengar, Glaceon, Rhyperior and Zoroark) sitting comfortably on his belt.

Kairi | Kingdom Hearts | Breeder

[lightofheart]

[It's no surprise Kairi has a soft spot for any Pokemon that would be injured or one that say, follows her home one day. So she has an interesting array of Pokemon, though her favorite seems to be her Houndoom (but picking favorites is bad, m'kay), but she gives equal attention to her Audino, Milotic, Cubone, Dratini and Kirlia.

But! She has an egg~ Looks like her Dratini and Milotic got a little busy when she wasn't looking? And she's looking to give it to a good Trainer.]

[doingthemistything]

[Did someone ask for a good trainer? Depending on where Kairi is, Kirino may be passing through, a Plusle perched on his head and a Ralts in his arms. He shifts around Ralts a little to wave cheerfully in greeting at Kairi as he passes by.]
