Character: Yellow de Tokiwa Grove
Series: Pokemon Special
Character Age: 14
Canon: We're all familiar with the phenomenon of Pokemon. Small children tame giant monsters by stuffing them in balls, leaving them in their computers, and then forgetting about them, in order to fill out their Pokedex, an electronic encyclopedia. The world of Pokemon Special is not exactly like the others- This slightly more mature take on the series includes fun parts like the Elite Four being omnicidal maniacs, the heroes being not terribly heroic, and making the readers shed Manly Tears for Giovanni, the leader of the evil Team Rocket. However, despite all the mass murder and destruction, it still manages to hold to the feel of Pokemon; a happy tale of children and their friends (some of whom just happen to be giant monsters).
Yellow is a girl (who initially pretends to be a boy) with special Pokemon-related powers. Because of where she was born (the Tokiwa Grove, or Viridian Forest), Yellow can read Pokemon's minds, heal their wounds, and do all sorts of other crazy stuff. Rather than using these powers to become an invincible badass trainer, though, Yellow instead is a kind, pacifistic, and slightly narcoleptic girl who wants to help everyone she possibly can, and make new friends. She goes to great trouble to keep anyone, even her enemies, from being hurt. This doesn't mean she's less effective at battling than the other characters, though. While she's slow to anger, when she gets mad, she defeats even the strongest of the bad guys.
Sample Post:
Uh-oh, I think my map is wrong. I was trying to get back home through the forest, and I saw a shortcut on the map, but I'm pretty sure this isn't right. The map says there's a camp around here, but I don't see it. The map said it was called 'Camp Fuck Yeah Seaking'... The name here is similar, but it's still different. And I don't see any Seaking, or any other water-types around, either. I don't even see the Albuquerque I'm supposed to turn at. Well, there must be someone I can ask. Maybe those birds with the funny beaks can help! I've never seen a Pokemon like that, though. I wonder if the Pokedex has anything to say about them?
Toucan, a psychic-flying type. "Usually inhabits forests, swamps, and your mom's bed"... Huh? That can't be right. Did the Pokedex break? I'll try scanning it again. "Uses telepathy to identify potential threats, prey, idiots, and your mom"... Not again! One more time. "Hobbies include flying, long walks on the beach, waiting for stupid trainers to consult their Pokedex and then mocking them until they forget where they are, and your mom". H- Hey!
Oh, no! It's right, I can't remember where on the map I was anymore. Now I'm really lost... Ah! There's a group of people over there, I can ask them! Excuse me, can you help me? I don't know wh- Huh? "Brains"? I'm not sure what you mean- Oh, I get it, you must be Pokemon! You look so much like humans I was confused... So you're called Brains? Okay! Can you help me, please? I just want to know where the nearest humans are. I'll read your feelings so you can answer.
That way? Huh? But your friends are all pointing in different directions... Are there no humans around here? Wait, what are you doing?! You don't need to fight just because you all disagree! See, that's right! It's okay to just hug and make up like that. Wow, you're holding it for a long time, you must really be sorry for fighting... ... Wait a minute, why are you moving your hands down there- Wa-wa-wa-wait a minute! I- I don't think I should be watching that!
voting went on here. aaa that was vaguely terrifying.
