Um, hey there. First time doing this. Saw a bunch of other stories like this and figured I'd make one of my own. I'll have two of my OC ideas in this, so send in your own OC ideas via reviews. Here's the form for OC submission:

Name:

Age:

Gender:

Appearance (stuff like height, weight, hair length/color/style, facial features, etc)

Clothing:

Personality:

Hometown/Region: (must be in the Pokemon world)

History: (what they did in their hometown and elsewhere, be it a Pokemon journey or whatever)

What they think of my OC's:

Pokemon (up to 10): (Please include the Pokemon's nickname (if any), gender, nature, ability, and moves. Pokemon can also have up to 6 moves.)

Battling Style:

So, to get this started, here are the two OC's I'll have in here:

Name: Roy Ashford

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Appearance: 5'11, 190 lbs, dirty-blond curly hair (can be straightened), intense blue eyes.

Clothing: Boston Celtics 2008 NBA Championship hat, Boston Red Sox 2004 World Series t-shirt, blue jacket, denim jeans, silver, red, and white sneakers.

Personality: Laid-back, enjoys just sitting around. Seems lazy and apathetic at first, but proves to be a great friend to everyone.

Hometown/region: Olivine City, Johto.

History: Has been close friends with Olivine City Gym Leader, Jasmine, since 2nd grade. Their standing with each other borders on being a couple, though not quite. Traveled back and forth between Johto and Kanto for a few years to expand his Pokemon collection. Had a run-in with Team Rocket in Kanto one time when they tried to steal his shiny Seadra. Future Champion Red stepped in and saved his Seadra. He promised to repay the favor to Red one day.

Hometown/Region: Snowpoint City, Sinnoh.

History: Is known in and around Snowpoint City as somewhat of a myth as he is rarely seen, preferring to spend his days on the frigid peaks of Mount Coronet. Spending so much time on Mt.

Battling Style: Takes full advantage of Hail and plays his Pokemon to their individual strengths, Won't hesitate to switch out in the middle of a battle.

Well, those are my OC's. The story will center around Roy, but Freeze will have his own sections here and there. This won't just center around the tournament, though it is the main attraction. I want to actually include out-of-battle sections (for example, Roy and some other OC's hanging out at a Pokemon Center, etc).

If you have any other questions concerning OC submission or whatever else, don't hesitate to leave them in a review. I'll get the prologue going ASAP. I guess I also need to add in the disclaimer.

Obviously, I don't own Pokemon, Nintendo and Game Freak do. I also don't own anything else I end up referencing.

There won't just be OC's in this story, but the bulk of the characters will be.

Updates will occur... rather sporadically, as I have a myriad of other things to do, too. It's gonna be quite the balancing act, that's for sure.
