Synopsis:
In a distant future where the extinction of pokemon had already passed, humanity stood once more at the pokemon stadiums. Tens upon thousands of attendants flooded to see the next big thing. Shows topping itself in viewers rating day-by-day. There seemed to be no stopping the new phenomenon known as the Pokemon Layer (yes, Layer, not Lair).

With newer and greater technological advances in the new century of Kanto, scientists have found methods of replicating pokemon from their fossil forms. The cath: they were no more living than the fossils themselves.

It was apparent that with their technology, they would have been able to create microenvironments that can essentially power a field from under a generator, essentially giving electrical power to anything sitting on top of that.

One man, Shiro Umezawa, took it upon himself to merge the two concepts. By creating robotic pokemon that can hook up to a person's mind (like a sort of radio control mechanism), he can easily use the microenvironment technology to power tiny pokemon on top of things. And thus, pokemon layer was born.

With some help from his assistant, Saber Tousaka, Shiro was also able to create a device known as the "pokeball", which allowed people to store their larger pokemon by the form of compression (recall that they ARE machines ;)), and thus allowed people to carry them around efficiently.

Here, pokemon layer caught on like wildfire in a forest, and swept across nation upon nation. Shiro's development team continued to push above and beyond expectations, and were able to create lifesize arenas (sadly, trainers, those who control the pokemon are called "trainers", cannot enter the arena due to the circumstances of the battlefields), and thus made sports stadiums pokemon battle stadiums.

Old traditions such as the indigo tournament went full swing, as the tourism based city now also gained momentum to be the layer capital of the world. *note that GYM LEADERS DO NOT EXIST, NOR AN ELITE 4. NONE OF THE CHARACTERS FROM POKEMON EXIST HERE FOR OBVIOUS REASONS.

As trainers, what would you do to get to the top, and be the best of the best?

NOTE: The control of the pokemon is through your MIND. Using a headset, you control your pokemon's every movement that way. :D

Beta/dev testers of Pokemon Layer:

"The Balance" Shana Guay (not seeded, staff?), sporting nothing

Introduction to Layer Battling

The battling in the Layer generally consists of two trainers, the arena (currently just a giant blank stage), and their pokemon. Trainers cannot enter the arena when its power is on due to a barrier on the arena (now called "Layer") produced at its circumference.

The start of the battle begin with each trainer throwing their pokeballs into the arena (you can make up random sayings for them to throw their pokeballs in and what not). Due to the vertical barrier of the Layer itself, the pokeball opens as soon as it's just over arena, and then bounces itself back to the pokemon using the electrostatic forces generated in that short period of time.

The pokemon, once inside the Layer, can move freely due to the person's control through their mind. A person thinks the pokemon should dodge left, then it will dodge left, etc. This does not account into the physical limitations of the pokemon, and thus are slightly different in controls with each pokemon (ut you only need to know the general idea of it anyway).

Name: Jetric Williams
Title: "The Liquid Crusader"
Age: 20
Personality: Quiet, just, calm, ready to defend honor, nice, yet easily ticked off when anyone insults his relation with a "gym leader" and will have no hesitation to unleash his full wrath.

Description:
Looks: Something like the guy with the blue hair, only imagine him like 20 yrs old:

Jetric is an ancestor of Misty and her unknown fiancé. He just wants to prove his worth, trying to impress his fiancé; Casey. One of his secrets is he did volunteer for beta testing in Pokémon layer, yet dropped out due to his own reasons. The other beta testers still think of him as a highly skilled trainer and still know him as "the Liquid Crusader", with his faithful Vaporeon; Sly.

Pokemon: Vaporeon (Sly)

Others: Casey is also a trainer; yet only doing it for fun; not serious in being the top.

Right. No rares, yet Lapras and Blissey are there. Wonder why. ;)

Yeah, the old plot seems to be a bigger fusion between the two worlds. This one seems to focus more on the Layer world than the pokemon world. However, twists can be fun.

Yeah about that. It's in the old forum, if I recall. XD Either that, or it's somehow gone, since I don't see it in a search. :P

This looks quite interesting. Are we allowed to use the same pokemon as the testers?

~Form~

Name: Tarya Kiote

Title: "Mage of Abyss"

Age: 17

Personality: Tarya is a very smart and quick thinking girl, but usually fails to solve the simplest of questions, nevertheless. She's always a bit clumsy and forgetful, giving her an aloof personality among other people. She's kind and reasonable, but when tried, she has enough anger and some secret stash of strength to punch really hard. Unlike most girl's she knows, Tarya doesn't go around looking for the latest fashion at the mall or a new pair of jewelry, but she rather buys a good book or traveling clothes when she really needs them or spends time with her friends, which consist mostly of boys. In truth, Tarya is lonely and secretive, but she hides her true feelings when in company of other people. She tends to stress herself out too much because she thinks things through too rapidly from every possible point of view, often confusing herself.

Description: Tarya is cute and mothers of her childhood classmates would sometimes call her a lifesize doll. Her hair is dark brown with faint streaks of natural red and reaches halfway down her back, always let loose. She usually wears a pair of black jeans with a long-sleeved shirt usually colored black or dark blue. Her skin is pale even though she originates from the tropical side of the world and her eyes are bright silver, making her look, according to her friends, like a ghost when it’s night.

Pokemon: Umbreon

Yes. Other than Blissey and Lapras (which are rares), you can use any of the dev tester's pokemon.

Jet: Oh well. It's alright going in fresh again. ;)

Name: Sekai "Ken" Yukari
Title: Seraphim of the Innocent
Age: 27
Personality: A rather caring man, and was noted in public to be bright as an angel. Ruthless on the battlefield, yet gentle nature also shows.
Description: Asian man with a powerful forehead. Rather fragile body accompanies a Sean Paul style outfit (minus the bandana and the like). The Right arm is always completely hidden.
Pokemon: Smeargle
How you caught on to the craze: Beta/dev tester
Other: Working on the mind control system of his arm, he decided to apply it onto the layer after a request from Shiro. All that was known was that something happened after the initial beta testing that separated the two men.

His black hair covers his left eye, and hangs down neatly to his shoulders.

Name: Leon Rogers
Title: "King of the Swarm"

Age: 28

Personality: Inconsiderate and careless. Leon's disrespect for the rest of the human race is apparent in his impolite manner, and his own self-importance is reflected in his arrogance. He jeers his opponents in battle and is not afraid to take risks in order to get what he wants. The only warmth he shows is to his pokemon.

Description: Leon stands at a merely average 5'11. Sharp, defined cheekbones frame his red eyes, and a mane of slick, white-blonde hair falls roughly onto his shoulders. His black leather jacket, featuring a small "Azalea Town Gym" logo, is his most prized possession and he never takes it off. It conceals a plain black T-shirt which he wears with torn blue jeans and black boots. He has a strut, almost a slight swagger, in his walk.

Pokemon: Armaldo
Other: A rogue travelling salesman, Leon bets on the Pokemon Layer battles in order to pay off his debts.

Seems alright. Except that Gyms don't exist, just as a reminder (I'm just assuming it's like a tourist shirt or something). Also, note that the pokemon he's carrying around is a product of man. lol

Finch

That was the idea of the jacket. Sorry about the pokemon thing, though. I'm going to say instead, then, that he cares only for battles (not his pokemon). Is that better?

Great start :oops:.
