Since only four applied right away, and they were good apps, I've decided to accept those four. Recruitment is closed. Massive apologies to seraphflonne, whose app arrived while I was typing this post and also the first post of the game forum. By the way, here is the link to that forum: pokemonbypost.boards.net/board/152/exploringSee you there.

Hey there,
who is currently active in the game and what type of characters are you playing. I've been wanting to join up with an additional game but I don't think the game needs duplicates of any kind.

I'm playing a paleontologist who's goal is to find unknown fossils in the new region.

Cool.
I was thinking about applying with a hunter/trickster specializing in grass and poison types. Something along those lines anyway.

The other active member is Bo, who is a Trickster / Commander with a poison starter. Just fyi.

Good to know, as that comes awfully close to what I was planning. I gues that'll be back to the drawing board then as I'll come up with a different idea.

Hey there,
I am interested in playing and have been apart of a few pokemon games already though I have never played a PbP pokemon game. If we are going for a more vanilla experience i was thinking if you guys had like an older gentleman that never got the chance to go on a pokemon journey in his own time. Thinking Mentor / Chef. Though thats up to the dynamic or could change the age if we are going for that video game / anime experience

tko, one of the plot points is that the Professors looked at people who hadn't taken their Pokémon journey yet, so technically an older fellow would still be okay if he'd never had his adventure at any point earlier in life.
Thank you, spike, for answering meeple's questions so quickly.

Hey there. I read over the plot so far, and couldn't help but notice, that you're missing Justin Trennody, so I thought I'd introduce him. He's a Duelist/Fashionista, competitive to a fault, but really just wants everyone to have a good time.
Will there be any catch-up added to the character that gets in, or will Justin be starting off with a healthy bit of challenge?

Oh, good question. I'll make sure that the new player is brought even with the current players, but after they meet up.

It should be pretty easy with their own folder and 6 daily events to spend.

Justin Trennody looks pretty great, as far as an application goes. I can't find anything wrong with it apart from one glaring error - it wasn't made using the sheet I link to in the first post. That's kind of important for this game. Think you could port him over?

Oh no! I was just using the most recent one, so I'd have Alola Pokemon stats. I'll go ahead and move him over. Out of curiosity, what are the differences? (Other than the sheet being narrower ;p)
Edit: Transfer complete! Here's the ported sheet. It's also edited into the original post.

It's narrower and there's a lot of hidden stuff on the custom Pokédex tab. We can add the Alola stuff as-needed. Okay, Justin is complete!
That's one app submitted already. I'll keep recruitment open for a couple more days, or until two more apps roll in. Choosing one out of three will be difficult enough without that number being higher.
Well done on all that info in the bottom sections. That's a very fleshed-out character.

Hello there! I would like to present Prentice Aquilo for your consideration. He's an ice ace/mentor presently who's had to spend his childhood growing up in the shadow of his slightly older brother. Some notes that may be useful: I had to choose Vanillite as my starter because... well that's literally the only ice type that fits the specifications. While this doesn't actually bother me at all, I know a lot of GMs ban Vanillite because of it's immediate access to a STAB five-strike move (icicle spear). My Vanillite is geared toward special attack over attack, but as I've come to learn in another game five-strike moves are still gonna hurt if I roll that 8 (making it a DB 17 move including STAB... ouch). So I guess my question is if it's ok to pick Vanillite as my starter? I'd be more than happy to drop the move in exchange for a weaker ice attack (Powder Snow which is on Vanillite's Egg Move list perhaps?) Otherwise Icicle Spear is Vanillite's only damaging move at level 5. Just thought I'd give you fair warning anyway. As for my pokemon wishlist/hatelist: These are purely from the perspective of the character (hence all ice/fire types respectively). I personally don't have any problem with any pokemon whatsoever, and Prentice should probably have a couple non-ice type pokemon for backups somewhere in there, so take the list with a grain of salt. I think that's about it then. If you notice something amiss or that I overlooked let me know and I will attempt to fix!

Looks good. I can't find any problems. Vanillite's fine. Icicle Spear is fine. Good job. Another very detailed character.
That's two apps. I'll wait for one more.

Please meet: Soraya Aldana
Traveling chef and ground type specialist. Only thing I wasn't able to do was change the type of last chance. Could someone help me with that?

Use the blue Share button in the top right to allow anyone with the link to View the sheet. Right now, it's restricted to only yourself.
