This game will be using the Pokemon Tabletop Adventures Beta, a homebrew system that can be downloaded here:

Pokemon Tabletop Adventures Beta


Please read the Player Handbook, and become accustomed with the combat rules and the various class options first. Then you may fill out your application. An Application should contain the following.

Application

Name: The character's name.
Age: And their age. Keep in mind that you're a starting Pokemon trainer, so no adults please.
Appearance: What your character looks like.
Base Stats: Like in D&D, you as a trainer have the six attributes of Strength, Constitution, Dexterity, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma. Your stats help determine what class you will eventually become. You may purchase stats at 64 point buy, but each individual attribute must be no less than 6 and no more than 14.
Intended Class: What trainer class(es) or advanced trainer class(es) you plan to enter.
Backstory, Personality, and Plans: Describe your character to me in detail, placing specific importance on what your character's goals are. Do you want to win the Pokemon League? Discover fantastic legendaries? Open a restaurant? Where do you want to take this character at the end of the game?
Starter Pokemon: You may have one level 5 Pokemon at the beginning of the game. You do not have to choose one of the 14 existing starter Pokemon though; any Pokemon that evolves will be considered, but some choices may be rejected. The starters from the four regions, Pikachu, and Eevee will all be automatically accepted though.
Pokemon Wishlist: Not necessary, but list some Pokemon you would like to catch over the course of the game. This is essentially your dream team. No legendaries please.

The tentative due date for applications is August 20.


In Depth Setting Information: The Western Pokemon Conference is rather similar to regions like Hoenn and Johto. The Western Pokemon Conference is made up of California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, and Nevada. There are eight Pokemon League Gyms in cities across the region, and an Elite Four stationed on Mt. Whitney in Death Valley.

However, there is also a separate American League that champions from the different regions may attend to for the Grand Festival or for the Pokemon League Championships. Similarly, the only Battle Frontier is in Orlando, Florida.

Everything is mapped to real world locations, so you can catch Pokemon in the Central Valley, the Redwood Forests, the Sierra Nevada, Lake Tahoe, Mt. St. Helens, the islands of Hawaii, and the tundra of Alaska. Explore regions full of Pokemon, but beware, as those who would use Pokemon for evil purposes exist as well.
