MUN
Name: Mega
Timezone:
Contact: AIM - derpisms
plurk - Dorked
What you're looking for: Everythiiing. Enemies, friendships, danger, challenges... I'm always up for fun things for Riku to do.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Riku (islandshore) • Kingdom Hearts
Location Vermilion for the tourny! He's staying for the entire duration, in part because he's made finals in two of the cups and also because... well, it's the first time anything exciting's happened in Kanto in a while. Gotta love all the life in town right now.
Blurb: Snarky teenager who got tired of his small world and wanted to build a raft to get away from it all. He's spent two years in the game and has since mellowed slightly, but he still retains his snarky streak, competitive nature, and a bit of his ego. It's just a bit watered down since his early days, when he went so far as to diss Gym Leaders left and right. :'| He also runs a Training Center over in Celadon because he's secretly become a Pokénerd. I MEAN--
Plans: Right now, I just plan on having him enjoy the rest of the tourny, win or lose. If nothing else, it's been a learning experience for him, and he'll take what he's learned through his battles and apply it to further training. Other than that, I don't have a whole lot planned for him. He's mostly going to stick with his friends, keep his business going, and train. The guy really needs more spice in his life, so I'm definitely open to ideas!

I also apped Bowser from Super Mario as a Rocket, so if he gets in, I'm more than open to shenanigans. :)

Given that Kayneth is well on his way to becoming a Smogon-style trainer, I think it would be fun to keep these two talking about their attempts at IC minmaxing, hahaha. He's also a competitive ass, so that could be fun for CR as well...

...also can I just say I fuckin' love you for apping Bowser, oh my god

[islandshore]

That would be excellent. B] Riku is very much a minmaxer to the point where he seeks out tutors left and right just so he can have moves that cover as many types as possible. :'| And Riku's always up for some good ol' friendly competition for good measure!

Also, thank yooou. I'm looking forward to playing him so I can have someone who's a bit more of an idiot... and also an awesome villain for that matter. He's totally going to try and take over Team Rocket and fail miserably.

Also kidnap Whitney and other female Gym Leaders. That's so gonna be in his plans.

[enjoymyatelier]

Kayneth will get there someday...! ...but his luck and also his lack of funds to buy TMs...

Oh my god. I'm not sure if he's the sort of character who will gel well with Kayneth, but I will assure you that I will stalk every one of his threads.

[islandshore]

The answer is simple! Save, save, save. Every Pokédollar counts!

Alternatively, spend way too much time battling NPC trainers. Riku did that a lot during his early days because he had too much time on his hands. 8| /flips him

Well, hopefully I'll do Bowser justice, then! I have a feeling people are going to troll him hardcore if he gets in because... he's basically living trollbait with his RPG persona.

[enjoymyatelier]

...hahaha, yeah... someday, Kayneth will have actual money, but until then...

Hahaha, it's so true. I'm looking forward to seeing this because it'll be pretty hilarious.

I need to find a reason to have Cecil visit the Training Center. If only because he'd go 'hell yes' at the thought of facing Terror and Quake while his whole team would go 'hell no'.

[islandshore]

...Cecil, you are a glorious daredevil. Also one of the few people Riku thinks could actually handle Terror. Because, seriously, she has issues. :'|

[paladinlost]

Fighting monsters isn't nearly as fun when there's no chance of losing a limb, really. ...Or when he's not actually doing it himself, but details. Facing her would probably remind him of home in some sort of twisted way.

[islandshore]

She needs to let out some steam, anyway. 8| Being cooped up half the time doesn't do much for her temperament. ...especially when Phantom uses her as a target for his pranks.

The Celadon Training center takes no responsibility for any injuries received when battling vicious dinosaurs!

[paladinlost]

He'd have to send Kayne out, then. If anyone in his team can take it it'd be him. Not that Surf will do much for her mood, I'm sure.

It's okay, Cecil needs the haircut anyway.

[explosivecombat]

...I am not sure what to say planning-wise, but I need to add to the "I fuckin' love you for apping Bowser" sentiment, because holy shit, things I need in my life.

[islandshore]

I just got the random urge one day. Decided, hmmm, Route needs more campy villains.

THE SOLUTION? Bowser.

Also, this may have had something to do with it.

BOWSER 8D

Archer will totally be using those microchipped Pokémon at some point, but it probably won't be until after the new year because l-lol so many things planned for him orz

[islandshore]

YES INDEEDY. I feel like all the other Rockets will probably facepalm at his antics, though. The guy is like the opposite of subtle.

Also, I approve of microchip shenanigans. >] Until then, Riku shall keep training the piggy into a glorious mammoth of death! Especially after that match with Isaac.

[determinator]

Oh come on now, Wheatley will approve at least! \o/

Oh yes, those murdermammoths are absolutely amazing!
