AN: Welcome to my newest story! My best friend and I are going through a massive Pokemon phase, and I got such a great idea, I just had to post it! I know there's a few pokemon school fics, but I intend for mine to be quite different. This is the introduction and gives a vague description of the school. More will be revealed as the story goes on. At the bottom you will find an OC form. I am intending on accepting 5 OC's to start off the story, and then add more (if they interest me) along the way. Please do not be intimidated by the fact I'm only asking for 5. I just want to develop my story line before trying to throw a bunch of characters I didn't create into my story. As I said, I will be adding more of those submitted later in the story. Also, I thought this would be a funny semi-love triangle. Gary is very... 'out there' and Silver is quite reserved. I don't usually like love triangles, but I thought this one would play out nicely. If you'd like to beta for me, please let me know! I'm good with grammar, but I don't catch everything.

Ahem, I do not own Pokemon. If I did... well... I sure as heck wouldn't be writing this!

'As trainers begin their journey at such a young age, many parents begin to worry about their education. Those who do put their aspiring trainers on the Pokèversity wait list. Now, only parents who personally attended the university know of it. Why is that you might ask? Well, to put it quite simply, Pokèversity is a secret facility where the best young trainers are sent to hone in on their skills. Many greats have walked through the halls including all four champions of the various regions, as well as the younger elite four members.

The only way to gain entrance into the university is to be selected by our board. Trainers must have superior talent in their various fields of study, and have a well rounded relationship with their pokemon team. Once candidates are selected they are sent an application and an introduction packet. Candidates must complete the application to be accepted into the University. Hundreds of trainers are selected from the applicants and are pulled from their journey at the age of 15 or 16 to attend the university, if the board has previously approved them.

Other lucky few are selected at random from the wait list, which has earlier undergone selections looking for 'diamond in the rough' trainers. The board personally interviews these candidates, and usually only accepts six or seven of these a year. Once a trainer gains entrance to the school they are sorted into various houses depending on their skill level.

The beginning house is the Experienced House. This house features the color red, and its mascot is Groudon. This house is the starting house for most entering trainers. It is the basic house that introduces the students to the University and let's them gain experience. Some students will only spend a week in this house, depending on their skill level. Ages range from 15-16

The next house is the Specialist house. Their color is brown and their mascot is Slakling. This house is for trainers that only special in one type of pokemon. This house may hold a trainer for their entire stay at the University. Ages range from 15-19

A house above from them in the Advanced house. Their colors are blue and red for Kyogre. This house contains trainers that have a higher skill set than beginning students do. Ages range from 15-18.

The Exceptional house is green and their mascot is Rayquazza. They are a step above Advanced. This house is for trainers who have at least beaten one member of an Elite Four Member in any region. Members of the Advanced house may move up to this house by beating five of the Exceptional house members. Ages range from 16-19

The next house is the Veteran house. Their house is orange for their mascot Ho-oh. This house contains students who have beaten three or more Elite Four members in any one Region. An exceptional member may be admitted to this house if the board deems fit. Ages range from 17-19

The highest house is the Supreme house. The colors gold and silver represent this house and Arceus is their beloved mascot. This house, at max, will only hold ten students who have gone above and beyond the standards of a pokemon trainer. Many of the students in the past have been male. Only champion Cynthia and Elite Four Phoebe have taken residence in this house recently. The only students currently in this house are male.

This ends the introduction packet to Pokèversity. Please complete the following application and press the green button located below this pannel. A pokemon attendant should be along shortly to retrieve the application.

Only fill in the blank spots, your house has already been chosen for you.
We look forward to receiving your application.'

The holographic woman clicked off and Katie blinked at the pad in her hand. It had been such a normal day until an Altaria had promptly dropped the pad in her lap during her lunch break.
At first she thought it was a joke, but the detail and the fact they knew her name, parents name, birthday, and home address made her think otherwise. ... It was still creepy legit or not.

The woman who had relayed all the information was so professional, and so strict Katie was slightly scared to fill out the application.

Chocolate colored eyes scanned the sheet. "Supreme?" Her eyebrows rose in surprise. "Many students in the past have been male," she echoed. "What the hell, do they think I'm a guy?"

"Chuuuu~" Her Raichu, lovingly named Sparky, cooed. He rubbed his nose against her bare leg as an act of encouragement.

"Yeah, I know, I should be honored to be selected. In the highest category no less, but really? It must be some sort of mistake Sparks, seriously. I mean, sure I've won contests here and there, but never anything major. Someone must be betting a lot of me or something." She allowed her hand to rub her pokemon's head. "I guess I should fill this out then huh? I can't turn something like this down…"

Sighing haphazardly Katie took out the tablet pen provided for her, and began to fill in the blank spaces. Just the normal stuff, her pokemon team, their moves, her current residence, and what classes she wanted. Everything seemed pretty normal… besides the fact she'd never even heard of Pokeversity. But apparently, all the 'greats' have attended. Funny, if all the Champions have attended, why wasn't the University more popular? Maybe they were going for the whole 'eerie mystery thing'. Oh well, it didn't matter anyway. Her parents would probably have sudden brain combustions if she denied the invitation. They were just like that when it came to 'special people' programs. They had always said she was 'destined for greatness'. Katie had always assumed that they were just being the normal parent types, always boosting their children up.

"Rai, Rai, Raichu." The brown mouse said matter-of-factly.

"Yes, yes you too Sparky." Katie rolled her eyes and clicked the small green button located on the bottom of the seemingly holographic pad. This was either going to be really cool, or really suck. Either way, she'd be finding out soon.

Dear reader,

Congratulations! You have been selected to take part in the vie for the remaining spots at Pokeversity. This year we have three spots on the wait list, and the board is looking for two lucky students to open enroll. Open enrolling students may or may not be placed in the upper houses if the board so chooses. Wait list students will be automatically put into the Experienced House if chosen. Positions will be scored as follows; Creativity, Originality, Personality, Diversity, and Character Appeal.

Please note that Pokeversity is a very prestigious school, and has many students drop out through the year, so applicants who apply and do not immediately gain acceptance will still be considered for spots that open throughout the year.
Pokeversity hopes to receive your application and have you join us to help you along on your adventure.

- Dean of the board
