With regards to potential romance, I enjoy it as a sub-genre. It's very much an option. If we do do romance, I prefer FxF ships. I'm also perfectly happy with close/affectionate platonic friendships. If Mallory being 16 is a concern for you compatibility wise, she is already an emancipated minor (disowned because her parents know about her abilities and thought her a monster), so it's my opinion that aging her up a couple of years would be easy and wouldn't break any parts of her overall story, so I'd be fine with that. But regardless of her age, relationships would be relatively wholesome. We're talking hugs, cuddles, and emotional intimacy more than anything else.
I will be more open to trainers with powers than normal. My standard for power scales I deem reasonable is that a trainer could potentially be strong enough to fight alongside their pokemon. So like, they could be strong enough to fight a pokemon, but like any other Pokemon might have a hard time going up against multiple pokemon.
Any region is fine~!
Crossover Ideas
I'm also open to crossover ideas! With every crossover, the intention would be to play canon characters, usually one from each series. A crossover is optional of course. Feel free to let me know your own crossover ideas! These are just the ones I really like off the top of my head.
Pokemon x Kingdom Hearts
The basic premise of this crossover is that one of us would play a pokemon trainer who gets access to a keyblade and learns magic, and one of us plays a keyblade wielder who learns to capture pokemon, and they both sort of adapt to become stronger than before to deal with a new threat! Magic would be both normal magic, and new magic based on the Pokemon they bond with's moves and abilities!
Pokemon x Mega Man
In this crossover, I'd like to see Roll, Ciel, or Ashe take on a trainer's role with some guidance from a more experienced trainer. Paradoxically, robots and humanoids would be treated like talking Pokemon, at least as far as laws and what can be caught are concerned. So it's also possible the trainer would have caught the Mega Man character.
Pokemon x Smash Bros/Panfandom
I know, I know. But my idea is different. In this crossover idea, trainers would be catching characters from other video games in a fairly lawless environment. Stuff would get weird. But the goal would be to still preserve the themes of friendship and bonding.
Pokemon x Sonic
In this crossover, I'd like to see Amy, Cream, Sally, Honey, Rouge, Cosmo, Sonia, Lanolin, Tiara, or Trip take the a trainer's role in a world where the meme about throwing pokeballs at Sonic characters actually works. I'm sure the idea of capturing animals will in no way attract Eggman's attention.
Pokemon x Puyo Puyo
In this crossover, I'd like to see puyo characters catching pokemon and pokemon characters learning magic! Perhaps that magic could be expanded by using magic to emulate the powers and abilities of your pokemon you have a strong bond with.
Pokemon x Magical Girl
Sailor Moon is what I have in mind while writing this, but I love the genre in general. My idea for this would be a magical girl story told through the pokemon world starring a magical girl learning about pokemon and a pokemon trainer trying to become a magical girl. Similar to other magic crossovers, perhaps they could obtain new powers based on the pokemon they bond with!
Magic is very common. Magic-tech, grand floating islands, forests that sing, magical creatures may be an every-day occurrence.
Near future, perhaps cloning and genetic manipulation
Combat is woven into the storyline and could come to the forefront if the characters seek it out.
Romance is desired but not required, and will balance evenly with other plot.
Details: Freeform, adjustable length posts, long-term RP partner preferred. Will be played one-on-one.
