LORE BY THE TRAINERS  FOR THE TRAINERS  "The League Cannot Be Trusted.
The events that led to the collapse of the Madatsubomi Tower shook not only the Johto Region but the entire world. Many young trainers just starting their journey's lost their lives and for what? A terrorist cell to make a name for itself warning about the dangers of pokemon that most had yet to even see. Team Virus is a blight on the region's name and reputation that much is understood, however, the complete and entire failure of the League as a whole not only in their tardiness to rescue operations, but even more for allowing such an event to happen in the first place. The Pokemon League that constantly boasted its strength, its skill and its ability to protect the region as well as it's people failed unequivocally in their duties that night. Yet the coverage concerning in the following days only praised the league for it's quickness in dealing with and evacuating the people from the scene.
And so I ask this? What of the trainers who fought tooth and nail not only to protect themselves, but to protect each other when the league failed in its duties? what of those who died in a fight for their lives when they came simply for a gathering that promised a meal and a good time? For all those who shed blood and bore the scars there were no answers only disposable apologies.
This is unacceptable and this failure of the League proves not only their inability to deal with the threat that is Team Virus, but moreover the inability to protect the hundreds of thousands of trainers who roam the Johto Region and it is for that reason LORE was created.
Because our idols, our heroes have failed to protect us we will protect each other.
- Frederick Ferdinand & Azad Slade, founders of LORE.
OVERVIEW 
LORE is an organization composed solely of powerful trainers across the region who find themselves unable to believe in the Pokemon League's abilities to run the region for whatever reason. Many of the members were directly affected by the 'Tower Incident' and were among those who escaped and fought Team Virus over the course of the event. In their travels members usually work in teams of two to combat incidents across the Johto Region while major incidents are dealt with by larger groups of members. The group is made up of 20 MEMBERS who have no uniform only a specially customized card signifying the Legendary Pokemon they represent. Members come from people of all groups and classes who are moving through the region for their personal goals. It operates on the idea of "see something? do something." Responding to an event as quickly as possible as to keep it from getting out of hand without the member sacrificing him or herself in the process. Members are linked through their pokegears and can send and shoot videos on the fly of what exactly is going on in a sector of the region even dropping location pins if backup is needed. While they deal with a variety of situations affecting the region they're current focus is researching and dealing with all aspects of the Virus problem. Not only are they seeking to take down the organization but they also research their warnings and fears. Currently their goal determining the truth of Team Virus' statements. As the plot progresses their focuses will be updated and I'm more than happy to interweave personal plots into the organization's storyline. (just hit either Cool Guy or myself 'Creed' up on the discord)
As time goes on and if the organization gets off the ground I will break the roles of the members into different specialties depending on what's needed and the interest of that particular group of members, whether it's dealing with research, active virus threats, dealing with corrupted pokemon, retrieval of virus pokemon, etc...
If interested in joining just post the character you'd like to have join, I'd like to thread with all the members who are interested, but it can be after you post in this thread. Just post the legendary you wish to take and a blurb about your character. Currently there are 19 spots available.
Here is a link concerning legendary pokemon and their lore for thematic purposes.
THE ROSTER  LEGENDARY: COBALION  Frederick Ferdinand » COFOUNDER/ LEAD INVESTIGATOR | RANGER » Ever since leaving his position as a police investigator in Kogane, Frederick has been searching for a new way to administer justice to the corrupted elements of the world. When he witnessed the grand introduction of Team Virus to the world at Madatsubomi Tower, he realized that his time had finally come. Immediately he moved to find people who have the same view of the despicable team as himself, and in doing so quickly came into contact with Azad . Between his years of battle experience, sharp wit and training as an officer, Frederick is a force to be reckoned with. He uses his experience to lead the investigation into the workings of Virus, as well as gather intel on where they may strike next. Always calm under pressure, he never hesitates to make a tough call if he feels it to be needed. This includes letting people know that incompetence will not be tolerated while under his direction. But so long as those around him are pulling their weight and aiding the unit he will always greet them with a smile. Profile | Plotter | TeamLEGENDARY: RESHIRAM  Azad » COFOUNDER/ RESEARCH HEAD | PROFESSOR » A researcher and trainer who feels personally responsible for the tragedy of Madatsubomi Tower and is doing whatever he can to make his own amends, one of which was helping create this organization. First and foremost a researcher his goal concerns looking into the threat that Virus warns about, going as far as to study these pokemon and research alternate cures to the disease, that is if it's even real. He's also researching this patient 0 virus mentioned and doing certain studies as to ascertain what it actually is. Azad personally holds a grudge against ALEXANDER LOWELL the man who he believes is most responsible for the incident. While he may not look amazing and typically works as the group organizer and primary researcher his strength isn't something to be taken lightly and can more than hold his own with the best of them. He believes strength is something that should be used to protect and endlessly searches for truth to the problems befalling the region. He typically recruits people into the organization that he feels has something to contribute. Profile | Plotter | TeamLEGENDARY: HOOPA  ASHLEY LEE » STRIKE TEAM | FIGHTER» Originating from humble beginnings, Ash proved herself to be a capable trainer despite her limited experience within the field. As someone whom aspired to acquire strength and hone her skills as a martial artist and trainer, the act of terrorism that allowed for Team Virus to boldly expose themselves to the world left her terribly shaken. After being forced to rely upon others to rescue her elder sibling and her inability to save the lives lost within the confines of the Madatsubomi Tower, she made the decision to follow in the footsteps of Frederick Ferdinand in hopes of further honing her skills and striking out against Team Virus once offered a limited position within the disgruntled ranger's organization.

l e g e n d a r y : Meloetta p o s i t i o n : Social Coordinator i n f o r m a t i o n : A young woman who started her journey following the Tower Incident, Valerie's reality as a Coordinator has always been marred by the threat of Team Virus and the virus itself. After her idol and current Top Coordinator Anastasia was taken hostage by Team Virus, Valerie's faith in the league was shaken by their relative lack of response to the events. With misinformation spreading rapidly among the general populace about the nature of the virus and the terrorist group, the young girl found herself more than a little perturbed by the mantra of "Make Johto Great Again" taken up by several nationalist groups as well as talks in chat rooms of veritable witch hunts for any Pokemon that could be the supposed "Fairy". Living in a world where ignorance is emboldened by fear and Pokemon trainers of all sorts are threatened to either join a terrorist cell or be subjugated by them hardly fit Valerie's idea of the perfect journey, so she vowed to do whatever was in her power to be a thorn in Team Virus's side. After being recruited into LORE , the young coordinator has put her people skills to the test in creating a buzz about the organization through a guerilla social media campaign and counter propaganda; her goal there is to prevent the League from claiming false credit for the efforts of her allies and to curb the fear mongering that Team Virus thrives on. p r o f i l e : pokemon-victory.boards.net/thread/1612/valeriet e a m : pokemon-victory.boards.net/thread/1615/valeries-sewing-kit-pc-team?page=1&scrollTo=9512 |

l e g e n d a r y : giratina p o s i t i o n : strike team i n f o r m a t i o n : Although the values the trainer holds important differ greatly from those of Team LORE, the desire to use her strength to ensure that 'his' ideals became a reality drove her to joining in their cause. Despite this, she suffers in her own selfish wants to use the Team to train and better herself as well as gain more strength towards her goal of claiming the title of the 'strongest'. While she has no qualms about lending her power to the causes of the Team, her different ideals, violent mindset, and lack of empathy in regards to what the others stand for often causes disputes with her and her supposed comrades. Because of her ruthless nature and willingness to put herself into otherwise dangerous situations, the young woman excels in most combat situations, be it battling or hand to hand, and is the one to call when sheer destructive force is needed. p r o f i l e : pokemon-victory.boards.net/thread/312/vivian-valestein?page=1&scrollTo=928t e a m : pokemon-victory.boards.net/thread/330/vivians-pc |

l e g e n d a r y : rayquaza p o s i t i o n : strike team i n f o r m a t i o n : "Rangers and League members aren't the only ones capable of putting people in their place." Derek may not demonstrate the same kind of resentment towards the League for failing to entirely protect the region and it's inhabitants, but he is still adamant on securing the Johto region and the future of it's aspiring trainers and youth. Adhering to the law until it would have him sit back and watch from the sideline while people or pokemon continue to be targeted, Derek has no intentions of letting Team Virus get away with their crimes without throwing everything he's got their way. Journeying the region on a regular basis with no real obligations, he is easily willing to dedicate himself to the cause. All that's left for the trainer to do is to prove his sky high moral senses to the people and pokemon of the region, so that they may feel truly safe once more. Because what the region needs right now are "heroes", not publicized organizations who still profit while standing around. p r o f i l e : pokemon-victory.boards.net/thread/1269/derek-hoffmant e a m : pokemon-victory.boards.net/thread/1271/dereks-pc |
