Chronicles of Envas

I was inspired by "The Journey of Rae Blake" by The Darknes Is Alive, and decided to use the OC I submitted and give him life. I will accept other OC, one of which will be his travelling companion and another his rival. Details on what to submit will be on the bottom.

(Begin)

I sat on my floor with my legs crossed in an awkward position. Some would have thought this as ridiculous and rather painful. I will admit that when I first started this I lost all feeling in my legs after a few minutes, but over the years became as easy as sitting down. The sun hadn't fully raised over the cities residences, but the morning sun had started shining in my closed eyes. It was time.

I open my storm grey eyes and rising from my space. My name was Mathew Envas- yawn- sorry about that, anyway, what can I say except I'm lazy and want to be a psychic pokemon specialist.

I had already showered earlier and began to dress in what people now associated me with as my look, a dark green long sleeve shirt with the sleeves rolled up until they ended underneath my elbows. Next came my Khaki trousers with a second set of pockets near my knees and tied together with a red Trainers belt. Finally my black body warmer was slipped on over the shirt and remained unzipped.

I glanced to the left of where I was before and spied Zeno still in his meditation. He was my first Pokemon. Unofficially of course. He was a Meditite that I hung around with me at 9, and I kept meeting him on the outskirts of the city on route 208, until two years later he decided to come live with me and my Mum.

"Zeno, ready to go?" I asked my friend, my voice coming out as a slight monotone. He opened his large black eyes that burned with determination and excitment. I always admired how focused he could be all the time. Not for me though. I used the Pokeball I got from my mother and called him within it. Attaching it to my belt and shaking my dark shoulder length brown hair out my eyes, and made my way down stairs to say my farewells.

"Mum I have everythi-" "Nonsence! You can still fit a few more other things in here. Now let's see..." She began to circle around the kitchen, the crashing of pots and cupboards following in her wake. I smiled. All these years she still worried about me. My mum was a great coordinator six years ago and she decided to retire so she could open a Coordinator school at the contest hall. Her light brown hair was flowing behind her as she searched the house for extra equipment. She was only about 5 foot 7 inches, and I towered over her at 6 foot. For a women that was 35, she looked years younger, especially in her normal pale pink blouse and sunny yellow skirt. She lifted up a large cooking pot and was ramming it into my holdall.

I sweat dropped. "Mother please stop, I have enough stuff to make do. Besides, I'll be coming back to challenge Fantina anyhow. So please, stop worrying."

My mother began to frown. "How can you say don't worry, I'm your mother. Are you sure you don't want to wait another year? I could teach you to become a Coordinator instead." Most trainers start at 10 and get a Pokemon from either a professor or a gym leader, yet I wanted Zeno to be my first so I waited a year. Before it happened though, a newbie had entered Mt Coronet and was beaten up by some violent Machop. Since then it became mandatory for trainers to be 14 until they were allowed to explore.

"Mum, we had this conversation before, me and Meditite are awful coordinators. We tried and didn't enjoy it." A lazy grin started to appear "Beside, your Alakazam and Primape were fantastic teachers for Zeno"

"...Alright. Who knows, I might go back to being a coordinator while you're gone. Now get going before I change my mind." the sadness was leaking through her smile. No matter the circumstance, I never could stand a female crying, so I rushed off the chair at the table and gave her one last hug before putting on my bag (nearly breaking my back in the process), put on the black socks with the white and grey trainers, and left for the gym.

"OHOHOHOHO(twirl) so you wish to journey yes?" Fantina had questioned, her voice having a sing song feel to it. Although she was over 60, and the purple in her hair had lost some of its vibrance, she still remained as excentric and dramatic as ever, where fair skin once was had now been littered by small wrinkles.

"um, yeah" I smile nervously, I found it so hard to take her seriously, but the less difficult the talk the sooner I can leave. "I already have a Pokemon, my mum catching it for me, so all I need is the Pokedex." She smiled and handed me a shiny red device that reminded me a little of a BlukBerry. She began to tell me that it not only scanned Pokemon for research, it stored my ID, registers my badges to prevent thefts, and showed me the stats and moves of the ones I caught. She did all this while twirling and singing making me sweat drop again.

Heading towards the western exit of Hearthome city, I turned round I faced my home one last time. I released Zeno to watch it with me. "Take one more look at it my friend, 'cus it will be a while before we see it again." I lazily answered with my ever present smile on my face. Once we were satisfied, we turned around to the route checkpoint and headed through.

The adventure now begins.

Now the layout for an OC is below and Mathews profile is below that to give you an example. To submit an idea put it in the review.

Name: (easy enough)

Age: (14+)

Gender: (easy)

Appearance: (a brief description on the height, build, skin tone, hair colour and design, and the eye colour. Other things such as tattoos, scars, piercings and any other distinguishing features can be mentioned.)

Clothing: (can't have them naked now. Use your imagination, include whatever.)

Preference: (what would be their main type of pokemon, or if there isn't one, just say random.)

Home: (anywhere but try keep it close to Sinnoh.)

Personality: (make this as detailed and varied as possible. And for the love of weekends, don't make them perfect and Mary Sueish. Give them quirks, faults, or just plain villainous if you want, but NOT PERFECT.)

History: (I won't know what their background is so you will have to fill out as much as possible. If I like the character and I need more info, I'll PM you.)

Goal: (what they want to achieve. E.g. breeder, coordinator, master, gym leader, musician, chef, anything.)

Hobbies/other interests: (all battles and no play makes OC less realistic. Give them something else they like other than battles or contests. E.g. cooking, martial arts, playing card game, etc.)

Pokemon: -breed + level –nickname if they have one –gender – types –nature –ability -4 techniques

(now, I know that everyone will want to be super powered with legendaries at their call, but keep small and at novice level, the more realistic the better the chances of appearing sooner. And I'll PM the favourites for what their next pokemon will be and what moves they would want. If they are super powered then the most descriptive and unusual will be in the big leagues and replace the existing Elite Four and some Gym leaders)

My OC

Name: Mathew Envas

Age: 14

Gender: Male

Appearance: (slim build, six foot, slightly pale, not very muscular, brown shoulder length spiky hair and grey eyes)

Clothing: (A dark green long sleeve shirt with the sleeves rolled below the elbows, a black body warmer, khaki trousers and white trainers)

Preference: (Psychic but with a few exceptions)

Home: Hearthome City

Personality: (Matthew can be a little lazy at times but always has a smile on and is very easy going. He tends to keep quiet, but when he does speak though it's usually just a few meaningful words. When he battles though his appearance changes into him scowling and his eyes become focused. His fighting style is slightly ruthless yet tries to keep it as fair as possible. He dislikes cheaters with a passion and falls to pieces panicking when a women/girl starts to cry)

History: (Matthew grew up in Hearthome city most of his life. His mother was an impressive coordinator at the contest hall, and he went there once when she got into the finals to give his support. He was six at the time and Fantina, the person he considered the strongest at the time, was doing a gym battle in the contest hall as an opening act, and was fighting a psychic type specialist.

The opponent was only using a Gallade throughout the whole battle and decimated her. Matthew wanted to be as strong as that, so he went to the outskirts of the city and befriended a Meditite that soon became is first pokemon. Since then he trained to be ready for when he started his journey, and vowed to become a psychic type master.)

Goal: to become a psychic pokemon specialist

Hobbies: (loves playing Go, a Chinese board game and also doing meditation with Meditite.)

Pokemon (male Meditite lv.14. - Psychic/Fighting – Serious - Pure Power –moves: Psycho Cut, low kick, Confusion, Meditate.)
