[Faction] Team Rocket
« on: March 04, 2012, 10:10:46 pm »
Okay guys, here's the penultimate faction, I hope you guys have enjoyed reading these as much as I have writing them.

Team Rocket

Logo:

History: After the collapse of Team Rocket in Johto, Giovanni retired to an isolated house in the country with his family and Pokémon. The failure never left him however, and 10 years later, he succumbed to months of depression and stress, dying in his sleep. His only child, Leopoldo saw what had become of his father and vowed to never follow the same path of evil. He left home at the budding age of 10, with the aim of becoming the greatest Pokémon trainer ever. He trained hard and his career peaked 2 years later when he won the Kanto Pokémon League Competition, narrowly defeating a mysterious girl of similar age. Once declared a Pokémon master, Leopoldo saw his dreams as fulfilled and settled down in Goldenrod City to contribute back to society, volunteering as a Pokémon hairdresser. His kindness and generosity became famous and the queue outside his door would stretch around the corner. At the suggestion of one of his clients, Leopoldo ran for mayor, becoming the youngest person ever to do so at the age of 18. Sadly, he lost the elections by a landslide, though retaining second place. In a rage, he packed his belongings and left, never to be seen in Goldenrod again.
March the following year; a major bank was robbed in Saffron City, a newly regrouped gang of Rocket members claiming responsibility. Since then attacks by the criminal group have intensified to a level of violence, surpassing that under the rule of Giovanni. With the discovery of Miryus however, the publicity of Team Rocket has dropped dramatically, with no evidence of them being found in regions other than Jhoto and Kanto. Citizens and law enforcement alike hope for this calm stalemate to continue, however unlikely that may be.

Fantastic work, Declan. It wouldn't be the same without Team Rocket!
Although, I'll probably end up being with either Trinity or the Pidgey Post... probably the latter.
Great work. Can't wait to see the final faction!

Im assuming the leader is Leopoldo right? If not why did you include his story. So my problem is, you're saying losing a simple election was enough to convince this devoted kid to throw away his old good ways and turn to a life of crime like his dad? That just doesnt sound believable to me.

Something in his genes maybe? Remember Giovanni hated losing against Red. Maybe Leopoldo's just as stubborn as his dad and just thinks that being the nice guy has got him no power, whilst his father was the head of a massive criminal organisation and the most powerful gym leader in Kanto.

You know, I told declan the same thing. and about the leader backstories, those are seperate from the factions. I'm not sure if we're revealing the faction leaders backstories.

 My bet would be that the leader is the Mysterious Girl he beat at the tournament, and Leopoldo's disappearance is something to fool us.
It's ghost dammit, GHOST!

I agree, the Mysterious Girl must be the leader but I think Leopoldo must be a part of the story somehow. Probably going to try and put a stop to Team Rocket.

I hope there's a character similiar to James&Jessie (and Meowth) to blow up to the skies.


These guys are just too awesome.


Final Examination is coming faster than I thought D:

That was my first thought. I thought something more tragic should have happened, like maybe his adversary played it really dirty to win, and Leopoldo is mortified and left questioning what to do with himself? I don't know, I feel like there's more to this as others have stated, which is probably true.

It's 'Johto' Declan -_-
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

Currently playing Pokemon XY/ORAS/Shuffle and Clash of Clans and testing out PokemonRevolutionOnline and Dragonmon Hunter....
