WELCOME TO THE SINNOH REGION, a massive island rich with exploration and Pokemon. Legends say that Sinnoh was the very first Pokemon region to come into being;
and so the nefarious Team Galactic has begun searching for the time and space Pokemon in an effort to destroy and recreate the entire Pokemon Universe. Will you step up, earn your badges,
and fight to defend the world? Or do you believe in Galactic ideals, wishing to follow their efforts in starting anew?
[ 08.15 ] Welcome to Sinnoh! Team Rocket have arrived in Sinnoh and have left a very daunting message here. With the introduction of a new class comes another promo!
Check out the rocket promotion here and stay tuned for many more exciting events!
major news alert!
witness reports from all over the region has been flooding in about strange happenings at the three lakes. what's more perplexing is that these occurrences seem to be happening spontaneously at the lakes. just moments ago, a burst of light erupted at the locations and residents in the vicinity have reported that the lake-side pokemon have turned aggressive and attack on sight.
However, there have been rumours and sightings of the legendary lake trio which has had trainers flocking in from all over the region.
Adrian is generally a fairly uptight and blunt person. That said she does not understand the art of social interaction as she does not believe in not saying something to save someone's feelings. Usually this causes her to essentially insult others if she finds them incompetent. While she does not default to hating most people, it does not take much to tip the balance of her scales. Otherwise she tends to find most things stupid and is quick to anger, being labeled as a hothead even within the ranks of the rangers. On the brighter side she does have some good points. Her sense of duty is strong and no matter how tedious, Adrian will go out of her way to do what she believes is correct. Her moral compass is leaned more on chaotic good in that she believes in doing the correct thing and is not above doing some improper things to get the desired result. She would never admit it but she is also quite self-sacrificing. [break][break]
Adrian is currently in a relationship with Adrien Arkwright

PARKS for some reason she always defaults to parks for time alone. Whether its jogging or sitting by herself, she visits parks frequently enough to be recognized
GYM exercising is a hobby to her. She enjoys staying in shape and testing her physical limits
BARSshe is a heavy drinker so she will frequent bars when she has nothing planned for the next day will no longer drink at bars unless invited out to do so
RANGER HQ as commissioner, she tends to stay around HQ and monitor the rangers - not because she wants to but because she has to.
SUNNYSHORE APARTMENT due to the nature of her relationship and her previous living arrangements, she is now living with her boyfriend in his apartment in sunnyshore. In turn she will often be found in this city.
To put it in a nice way, Elizabeth is a manipulator at heart. Her specialty is information gathering and infiltration, where she uses her looks and falsified attitude to get what she wants. Being trained to do this since a young age, she knows no other way than the way of a manipulator. In the fact of men and her superiors, she puts on a facade of a sweet innocent woman whose charisma knows no bounds. In the fact of women that would threaten her however Elizabeth's true colors show as a fairly hateful and brutish woman. This side also shows in the faces of those she likes and trusts to keep secrets. As a physical fighter she is actually quite skilled but hides this fact as she knows it is not an appealing trait for a female. [break][break]
Her parents died for her dreams when she was a child, trying to provide her a life of luxury at the cost of their lives. Due to this Elizabeth continues to strive for the life she dreamed of away from the reaches of team rocket. What she seeks is a person that will be able to provide her this life away from the grasp of team rocket which is unfortunately not an easy task. It is worth noting that while she is looking to marry into wealth, she will refuse to date or marry anyone she is completely uninterested in for one reason or another.

ROCKET HQ as a rocket member, she tends to frequent this place often. Interacting with others there is a different story.

CROSSING PATHS
Not-so-fun fact: Both Elizabeth and Johnny’s parents were murdered by team rocket. Their lives have taken dramatically different turns in the wake of that fact, but it’s the kind of tragic kernel that allows for people as drastically different as they are to form a unique bond. Not that they’d want to do that initially, or even ever want to share that information to each other, but it’s possible.
On the surface, Elizabeth is the kind of girl Johnny thinks he could successfully hit on (read: alive and attractive), and Johnny is the kind of sucker Elizabeth feels she could play (read: male and full of himself) but, of course, neither of them are that simple. Something they respectively learn when they begin chatting up/flirting in a cafe or bar. That’s how their interaction starts; I don’t know how it ends. Maybe they talk about their backstories and come to grips with the fact they’re opinions about team rocket basically makes them enemies. Or maybe they hold each other at arm’s length emotionally for a while, only opening up when dire, circumstantial meetings down the line force them to. Depends on what we’d want a second thread for them to look like.
But anyway here’s the plot I promised. Let me know what you think <3
Tl;dr: they have the potential to be friends, enemies and everything else in between, but let’s start with coffee, drinks and playful courting.

AS I SQUINT HELLA HARD AT TOAST
Johnny and Elizabeth Honestly this sounds great. While I doubt Elizabeth would open up about her upbringing or her past, hearing about someone else that experienced something similar will definitely have her thinking and softening up. She can listen to his opinions on team rocket if there was a situation the subject is brought up (Maybe she'll mention them to see if he's recruit-able) and see where it goes from there. If they do become friends and acquainted - assuming that he doesn't learn about Elizabeth's position in team rocket - it could open up interesting doorways in the future if they cross paths as trainer vs rocket.
We should definitely thread soon and see where this goes <3

I don't really know how or why, but I really want a dancing scene featuring a bloodthirsty woman in fine clothes and delicate manners with a dellusional artist who cannot tell reality from fantasies.
Why certainly, i'm not suggesting illicit behavior in the workplace. That would be... unheard of, right ? :*
Jokes aside, I don't really know what to do. I'm looking for an ex-relationship, a trashy and heartbreaking history, foul language and horrible communication and all the drama stuff. Don't really know if Elie can cut it out tho, but i kinda of like her still so i'd like to try something !
Adrian and Sasha have a little bit of history with each other. I believe it's safe to say that there was quite a bit of tension between these two during the underwater raid. Sasha really wasn't aware of why Adrian wasn't too keen of her. If anything, she believes that Adrian may have prejudged her quite a bit during their time together. At the same time, Sasha wasn't too big on Adrian's rash behavior. The two of them bumped heads a good amount of times. However, I believe that when Sasha witness Adrian save one of their team members, she started to see how much heart Adrian actually has inside of her and she started to admire that about her. Adrian probably still wouldn't be one of Sasha's favorite people of all times, but she's her boss now, which is is a bit ironic. I would like to say that somewhere along the line these two develop a mutual respect for each other and maybe even develop a genuine friendship after learning more about each other or whatever. Sorry, I suck at plotting to be honest. xD

Nathaniel and Elizabeth If you want a bloodthirsty woman in fine clothes than Elizabeth is you kind of gal. With the type of person Elizabeth is, she doesn't actually mind openly engaging in flirtatious behavior between other rockets. Being flirtatious is what she does even within the leagues of team Rocket. I'm not sure how Elizabeth would fit into what plots your looking for though. They could have dated at some point and broken it off due to him finding out about her true violent nature which leads to her threatening him not to spread it around or else she'd break him. A sort of reverse abuse situation?
Since Elizabeth's specialty is supposed to be subterfuge and intelligence gathering, I doubt that bad communication skills would make sense for her. She tends to communicate well to some extend and learned to read people based on several traits she's learned over the years. But can still do some dramatic trashy stuff maybe? I dunno =)
Sasha and Adrian Haha, these two. So Adrian is the type of character that hates superficial and shallow people so during the underwater raid based on Sasha's words and actions, led her to believe this. At the time since she was a cadet, she didn't really care to voice her opinion on the subject but her opinion of Sasha only got worse as the raid continued. Especially where Sasha had blamed her instead of allowing everyone to take responsibility for everyone's individual actions and then revealed they could have avoided the life threatening ordeal altogether if she had used her pokemon to carry them across from the start. Because of all these factors it would be difficult to change her opinions of Sasha.
That said, its not impossible to get on her good side. Because of her personality it is actually quite difficult for her to warm up to others and make friends. If you want to go that route with Adrian then Sasha would have to do something that changes Adrian's initial opinion of her and shows her competency as not only a ranger but a decent person. Of course being careful to not tread on the line where Adrian might view it as sucking up to her because she's the commissioner, which would not help the situation.
Lol. These two are total opposites of each other. Oh yeah, Sasha definitely can't deny those traits. She probably would have used her Pokemon to help them across, but Adrian really didn't give her a chance to do that before she jumped the gun and everyone followed after her. That's water under the bridge now. Lol I do plan on having Sasha realize just how narcissistic and shallow she can be at times at some point. Ideally, she will meet a friend (hopefully another ranger or whoever), who encourages her to change her behavior and point out her flaws. It would probably take a little time for her change, but she would definitely work hard towards that goal. I'm sure that she will manage to get on Adrian's good side in the future, but until the she will continue to do her best as ranger and work up way up the ranks. Adrian definitely don't have to worry about her trying to suck up to her. That's a little outside of her character. xD

Sorry I got mixed up. I meant them having a bad relationship. Their communication would be perfectly clear ; a two way trash talk exchange in respect to their status as exes. I'd like it to be straightforward, bitter and ambiguous at times, just enough to believe they got over each other, but are still hurt over it.
To better express my idea, here's the thing.
I was thinking of making them date a few years ago for some time. Probably a college love (they're similar in age so it should be ok) in Jubilife city - Nate had to study there from age 18 to 23, she doesn't have to be a student herself tho.
And to bounce back on the idea of abuse, well if we take into account nate's character well... Honestly i don't think he would have left an abusive relationship if he was emotionnaly invested. He was (and still is, in some way) stupidly nice and self-sacrificing.
He is one to treat a woman like a queen, and bend to her every whim, her pleasure would be his happiness. And he could possibly feel guilty when abused, believing he is at fault.
One way i'd like such a relationship to end would be by having close friends to both Nate and Lizie intervene and try to stop things. While not knowing about that side of hers, they might have grown suspicious and pressured him into breaking up.
We could even go full drama by having one of Lizie's best friend of the time confess her love to Nate and steal him away as a means to get him away from harm. Maybe that's a little too cliché ? I'll probably think of something else.
Also if Lizie knowns of his past, she would know that he actually hates Team Rocket and suspects them of the murder of his family (yeah i know another orphan shows up) so she has quite a lot of stuff on him. And vice versa, i think it could make a pretty interesting thing to play around.
Post by Adrian Mastry on Sept 17, 2016 21:07:18 GMT
Nathaniel and Elizabeth Hey this sounds fun! Timeline wise she probably would not be a student considering her backstory but she'd most def date a college student that had the funds. Based on what you said then the description of how Nathaniel would have treated Elizabeth would be exactly what the woman wants. Knowing that I doubt she would leave the relationship herself unless there was a better "lover prospect" or something, but even then she would have tried to confirm that first. If Nathaniel was talked into leaving the relationship or something then she'd probably probably turn her bitter towards him after committing so much time and effort?
Elizabeth actually doesn't have many female friends so I don't think that a friend of her's confessing to Nathaniel to steal him is logical. Perhaps an accusation of her actually liking her job in team rocket would cause a similar amount of tension? She dislikes team rocket too and is only working as she does because she feels as if she has no other choice. If they dated then Elizabeth probably would have done investigating on him herself and learned some of these details. Since she's trying to get out of Team Rocket herself that might be another reason why she was interested in him before their break up.
Sasha and Adrian This sounds good to me. Adrian wouldn't hesitate to call her out on her negative traits if Sasha so much as asked if you want to go that route. Her thoughts on Sasha might also have Adrian reluctant to send her out on important missions because she doesn't believe Sasha is capable despite her rank. That could lead the the confrontation or whatever? I dunno.

Just so you know, Nate has only joined team rocket recently, so if they dated in the past... He wouldn't have been part of it. Worse even, as he's a breeder at heart and loves Pokemon he would find that job pretty disgusting.
Hey. Actually him finding that out could become a reason for him to call it quits. He's lived most of his life in a ranch and played a lot as kid with wild ones without much trouble so he's very close to pokemons and to him this would be just as bad as human trafficking.
Now that he's joined the fun i would reaaaally like to see how both of them would react upon a long meeting time.
Yeah, i totally want to see him in some painful reunion.
Post by Adrian Mastry on Sept 18, 2016 16:51:27 GMT
Nathaniel and Elizabeth Oh thats totally fine. Actually it works out. She'd probably be interested as to why he joined Team Rocket with the results of the breakup and all.
If that sounds good we can start threading soon =)
