Anxiety Trials is a Pokemon Special sandbox RP. We are a friendly, no-fuss site where you don't have to worry about posting 24/7, but when you've got the muse. We are based loosely around the Pokemon Special/Adventures manga, though set in a slightly alternate universe. If you're looking for a fun place to explore what life with Pokemon would be like, hopefully we're the place for you!

Sometimes Mei can be too talkative, and she often acts younger than she is. When she is allowed, Mei will latch on and become very cuddly. Her real name is Yuuki, but it is a family name for many of the girls, which is why she goes by her middle name.

She is catty and likes to play with people, and protects her heart for fear of love. She will have a number of flings and one night stands, but she doesn't like to let people know much more about herself. She loves her job, and she loves their cause, that is all that is important.

Hugh "I've known Huey for as long as I can remember, and he and Kyou have always been my best friends. Whether it was letting me battle with them even though I was a girl or just having fun on an adventure together they mean the world to me. I guess for a few years I've kinda had a bit of a crush on him.. Like, it's nothing major and I'm not going to throw myself on him or anything because you know, it's only itty bitty... Oh who am I kidding. Dx I do really like him but I don't want to ruin our friendship any. He's my best friend after all. He also protects and saves me way too much, I'm too much of a bother to be anything but a good friend! But that's okay, I'm happy to just be his friend too."
Kyouhei "Kyoukyou and I met when I was like.. four or five, whenever my parents moved to Aspertia anyways. He has always been there for me and I love him like my brother. He has always given great hugs and been a bit ahead of me in training but that's okay because I still managed to keep up pretty well. Even though he went away for a while I don't even feel like we've really been apart cause I was always sending him letters and telling him how things were going here in Unova and I just love him so much. He's my bestie and no one could ever get in the way of that. Too important to me, yup!"
Black "Although I only recently met Black, he's my senpai! He's one of the Pokedex Holders who defeated Team Plasma the first time when we still thought part of what they were doing was for a good cause. He is really strong and I really look up to him. I kind of think of him like my big brother, he could definitely show me how to act and what to do. Yep! Defnitely! Hopefully I make him proud and I can someday face him in a battle and be just as strong, maybe. I think so."
Alice "She's so cool! I met Alice and wow, she has such an awesome team of Pokemon. She's so nice to me that I just don't really know what to do to make her like me. I really want to impress her because I think there's lots of things she could teach me about battling and the other things that trainers do! I hope I get to know her a bit better!"

Everything is all hunky-dory now. Feel free to post at will, and request any plots or threads that you want with me here. x3 There are all my characters here so far, so hopefully I don't get the urge to make any more or I'll be sad about not having claimed the spaces. xD
Elesa and Alice would probably make quite a good duo in terms of compatible personalities. Elesa would take a while to warm to her but Alice's temperament would probably make them quite good friends.
When it comes to Mei, she probably admires and looks up to Alice, with a little bit of awe thrown in. She's not got the whole calm thing down yet, and seeing the way Alice acts would probably force her to try to mellow out, which would also work. xD We should do a thread - either one you'd prefer first? x3
We still need to get Plat and Anna together at some point, for some sort of tension idk, I can make an open thread or something and take it from there (this post is mostly a reminder to myself
I think this could work out, as both of them are currently residing in Ecruteak City. Morty and Crystal are the main lines of defense and support for the denizens of Ecruteak City, so they should be on friendly terms. Plus, Morty has a lot of information on the two towers, which could help Crystal in her search for the legendary beasts.
All of the yesses! x3 I'll get a post started for Alice and Mei. I definitely want a thread with Anna and Plat because awkward tension is hilarious and Plat is such a child. xD
And with Morty and Crystal, definitely. They would probably be on decently friendly terms because Crys isn't as hyperactive as Gold can be and she likes to do what she's supposed to. Both of them working around Ecruteak would be fun too, they can be defending buddies. We should do a thread to get a feel for their dynamic. x3
New knight, maybe some sort of plotting with Dite in order to get some more plans moving to progress the Knights' mission. A mission of sorts, I'm not sure what they would really be doing right now.
Dite always needs underlings. I imagine if nothing else they're trying to straighten out the fact that there's a new leader and still prove that they're being naughty and powerful. And it's too early so I'll add to this later. xD
So umm... Platinum and Diamond can interact no problem, considering their from the same Dex Holder trio. I'm probably not completely coherent from lack of sleep... but what's the story behind Platinum being married? And is Dia supposed to have known this?
Post by MEI MORIMOTO on Jun 8, 2013 6:16:38 GMT 9.5
When it comes to Plat's marriage no one knew. It was basically that her family was suddenly in trouble when all their hotels in Johto were collapsed with the earthquake and she went to Fernando Silph for advice. He married her to save the family fortune but he's always out to get her and made the ceremony secret so that she couldn't even invite her friends. Dx So poor Plat has been working away. She doesn't tell people its a monetary reason because she's too proud. So we have plot points and yay. x3
Ooooh, interesting. This could potentially create some very interesting drama. I doubt Dia's going to find out about it soon, but considering how observant and emotion-tuned he is, he might notice that Platinum's more tired and secretive than usual. Anyway, we're definitely taking this issue gradually. I don't know if you ship DiaxPlat, but even if you don't and we make this completely one-sided if Platinum just treats Dia like a friend the same way as Pearl, the dynamics of Dia having a crush on Plat but not telling her about it and only showing it through his protective streak for her makes for a LOT of plot. If you're up for it, that is?
Oh I definitely ship Dia/Plat like so hard you have no idea. xD I just also like torturing my characters. xD Plat isn't very good at emotions unlike poor Dia and being brought up the way she was a marriage of convenience was more what "suited" her familial ways but she has always wondered about marrying for love and those who do so. She's demisexual so she'd really struggle with the emotion side of figuring things out but the protectiveness will be wonderful. :3 I'm looking forward to seeing their dynamic in roleplay. x3
BLUE has had her own obsession with the legendaries, and if she were to find out what Crystal was up to, Blue would probably help. Blue would help, that is, as long as Crystal isn't trying to destroy the world, and if she gets something out of it. She may have grown out of her sneaky, selfish stage, but that girl is still inside of her, somewhere. Anyways, I think that the two of them could either clash or work well together, both being serious and more adult than the rest of the female dex holders? I don't know, any ideas?

Mei needs her kidnapper. Someone who organised her capture when she was interfering. We lost her canon captor and I'm pretty sure that at some point the Aspertia trio will be out for revenge or just to do things to make up for her capture.
So yeah, I would really like a Knight who knew she was meddling and when she approached them pretended to be friendly then attacked and held her hostage until Hugh saved her. Any takers?
KEISUKE HIDEKI & APH Hot monkey sex indeed. >> Aph is so grumpy with him but this should be fun.
- CRYS & @blue Crystal and Blue are definitely good friends. They're both older than the rest and know a fair bit about the world. Sure there's a lot of drama in their lives but maybe now and then they could just take the time to try to relax together too. I'm sure Crys appreciates any help on the front of the legendaries too, because they need all the help they can get against the knights.

@cyrus, Dite will always love an underling and she would definitely get him by sending him on missions. As it stands it appears that Nazo is thinking of promoting her to second in command so she might start favouring him for her replacement if he does good henchman-y things.
@kide, oh gosh yeah, they would definitely have some rivalry going. Dite was Cashel's secretary and she had a bit of bitterness towards the current leader but he knows she's dedicated so she'd definitely be gunning for that second to top spot.

ohhhh~
zach must do this. I'm planning on him becoming a serial kidnapper and he can just fill that role if you'd like
@pure2 - Okay so in the timeline the kidnap has already happened but if you'd like I'd totally be okay re-roleplaying it out so that we can get a feel for how Zach treated her and then it'll make awkward tension in the future? Maybe? I think it'd be cool if we knew how she'd react afterwards cause I'm pretty sure Mei would be terrified of him xD
I've noticed that it was in the timeline, but re-roleplaying it out sounds dandy and fine to me xD And Mei should be scared because Zachary is such a weirdo. The tension shall not be awkward, unless he did something--like, he was nice to her and whatnot, but he'll probably scream at her and be a manic and whatnot xP Half the time he doesn't even know what to do with himself.
OKAY, so I know I should be plotting with your Hoennite, but I kind of wanted to tackle Elesa first since I needed at least one Gym Leader interaction. So... I just had a review of her profile and I was laughing because Wallace and her are pretty much of a clash of the egos... with the former's just barely being less prominent. I mean, I don't think Wallace would be above modelling but he's got no time since he already has Contests. Generally, I'm just wanting to see how they'd react to each other, haha.
I have a general plot idea but knowing me, I'll probably just elaborate as you add on more stuff. What I have so far after reading her profile is that... my first issue is how they could meet. I'm thinking some sort of middle ground - not Unova, but not Hoenn, either? My idea was a cruise ship of sorts (no idea about the destination) because it can be pretty secluded sometimes and adheres to some rules of privacy which both of them do need every now and again.
As for the actual run-in, I could see her unsuccessfully dodging some paparazzi and tries to lose them, accidentally stumbling into him. Assuming she'd be rather high-strung by it, she'd probably just flash Wallace her usual look that seems to get her everything (you mentioned on the plot that she uses her beauty) and requests more like demands him to help her lose the press. I think it'd be more interesting if they didn't know of each other at this point. So... he does get rid of them while she gets away, though Elesa would probably notice that he wasn't exactly swayed by her "charm" (which really just boils down to the whole Winona thing). I'm not sure how high her set level of vanity is, but it might tick her off - or at least bother her.
Then, they could meet up again later. Maybe this time, Wallace runs into her by accident and maybe some sort of situation occurs where he experiences one of her secret dilemmas about choosing between being a trainer or model. He'd probably encourage her in some way but, uh, that's all I have SO FAR. I KNOW IT'S NOT MUCH BUT BLEH it's 2AM and my mind is dead. x_x

no one's posted here for months i feel a little weird >.<
dite&clara hey fate! i've got an underling here for aprodite. clara's one of lucia's troops, but ofc she's still gonna do everything dite tells her to. so feel free to order away! i'm not sure what else to put beyond that >>; clara will put up with the bitchiness and try to stay on dite's good side, but at the same time she's not really fanatical about the knights' cause etc. maybe dite has picked up on that?
the other girls&clara clara is all over the show and her pokemon may have stolen from one of your other girls at some stage. usually a cute pokemon is sent in to distract a person with it's cuteness while the kecleon steals whatever it can find in the person's pocket/bag/etc. 99.99% of the time they're after money or food. if you're up for making some kind of plot out of that, let me know~
elesa&clara okay i give in. elesa is probably a brilliant actress/model and i'm down for clara being a fan of hers. she probably has a fangirl crush on her too (because why not just look at elesa).
