A/N: This is the first Pokemon fic I've ever posted, hope it goes well. Obviously this is a few years post Black and White. I will be accepting OCs, the form will be at the end of this chapter.

Heroes of Unova Book One

The Race to Save the Region

Preface

"…Something's wrong…"

A brunette twenty-year-old sat in her home, staring out a window. Five Pokeballs rested on the desk that was off to her left side.

The brunette was, of course, Unova's regional Champion, Touko White. No one, not even her friend Cheren, had been able to take her title away from her in four years. Life as a Champ was getting boring.

Ever since she had defeated N, then promptly released Reshiram (after all, who was she to keep a legendary Pokemon locked in a Pokeball when they had a region to watch over?), Touko had been unable to add and keep a sixth Pokemon on her party.

The Champion looked at her five Pokeballs which contained her five best friends: Aleck, her Samurott; Qutie, her Cinccino; Lightning, her Zebstrika; King, her Unfezant; and Blake, her Krookodile. They knew how she felt. They missed Reshiram just as much as she did. The legendary dragon had rounded out her team.

Touko had known that, one day, another trainer would need Reshiram just as she had, which is why she hadn't kept the fire dragon.

But Touko had a feeling that, quite possibly, that day was coming up soon.

Clipping her Pokeballs on her belt, the Champion ran down the stairs and out of her house, releasing her Unfezant from it's pokeball.

"Take me to the Unova League."

Across town, a younger brunette sat on her bed, too excited to sleep a wink. Tomorrow...tomorrow she was setting out on her journey.

Vikkiy sighed as she clutched her Cinccino pillow closer. She was leaving home...setting off on what would hopefully be a journey of epic proportions. She would be kicking ass, earning badges, and being awesome.

And then...she would take on the Elite Four. She would beat them, beat Alder, and hopefully beat the regional Champ Touko...

A smile on her face, Vikkiy burrowed under her covers and turned off the lights.

Tomorrow was the day.

A/N: Abysmally short, but I need OCs before I can really go anywhere. I need five males, and four females. You can pick one of nine offered 'starters', and one of nine Unova legends for your character to be partnered with. EACH CHARACTER MUST AT LEAST BE SIXTEEN. The maximum age is 18. So, the OC form:

Name (include nicknames)

Appearance: (physical, clothes, anything else special about how they look)

Starter Pokemon: (Oshawott, Tepig, Solosis, Pidove, Gothita, Litwick, Sandile, Tympole, or Sewaddle)

Age: (16-18)

Legendary: (Zekrom, Kyurem, Keldeo, Virizion, Cobalion, Terrakion, Tornadus, Thunderus, or Landorus)

Other 4 Pokemon: (NO OVERLAPS. If a Pokemon has been taken I will inform you. Unovan Pokemon ONLY, and write them at what you want their highest evolved stage to be. Plus their moveset. Archeops, Emolga, Haxorus, and Bisharp are taken.)

Personality: (likes, dislikes, hobbies, fears, flaws as well)

Romance: (Yes/No)

Other: (Are they taking the 8-badge run or are they simply traveling the region? Will they travel alone at the beginning or with the others? Will they join the main group [my OC + those who chose to travel with others] in Accumala, Striation, or Nacrene? Or did they start with others in Nuvema? Were they born in Unova or not? Which city? Also, add anything else you wish to here).

Also, as an example I'll show my OC's form here:

Name: Vikkiy Arianna Black. Her close friends call her Vik.

Appearance: Chocolate brown hair that she keeps in a side pony, emerald eyes. She wears grey jeans and a black tee that has the words 'My Archeops Will Eat You For Dinner'. She also wears black Converse with Emolga patterns.

Age: 16

Starter: Snivy

Legendary: Reshiram

Other Pokemon: Leo. Male Archeops. Z. Female Emolga. Knight. Male Bisharp. Summer. Female Haxorus.

Personality: Vikkiy is loyal to the end, but stubborn and slightly sarcastic. She keeps a very detailed journal so she doesn't forget anything important that happens. She has a very unnatural fear of caves and dark places. She also fears poison-type Pokemon. She likes reading and writing. Her favorite foods are strawberries and pasta. She dislikes people who never shut up.

Other: Vikkiy is taking the 8-badge run. She will travel with a group of others, those who will begin with her in Nuvema and those who will join her later. She was born in Nuvema Town, Unova.

Please review! I will be picking OCs by whether they appeal to me or not. And please, only submit ONE OC.
