The Terracotta Region
The Terracotta Region is a strange region that has Pokémon from all over living in different habitats. For some reason, wild Pokémon are more aggressive than in other regions yet Pokémon and people have worked alongside for generations in harmony. However, Terracotta has remained closed off to the other regions of the Pokémon world, not letting outsiders into their region. Team Venom lurk within the shadows, situated on the far right island of the Terracotta Islands, containing people from all the known regions of Pokémon, including those that have been disbanded. It is unknown what exactly Team Venom desires or their motives but it is known that sometimes abusive trainers end up mysteriously murdered, their Pokémon taken.

6. Use proper spelling, grammar and punctuation. Please use English only.
7. Your Pokémon and your character are not immune to harm or death. Your character and your Pokémon can be injured or even die.

What are Mythical Pokemon?
According to Bulbapedia: Mythical Pokemon are a group of Pokémon seen so rarely in the Pokémon world that some question their very existence. The list of Mythical Pokemon is as follows:
Generation 1:
- Mew-A Psychic type who is believed to contain the genetic code of all Pokémon in its DNA.
- Celebi-A Psychic/Grass type who is referred to the as the guardian of the forests and nourishes them as it travels through time.
- Jirachi-A Steel/Psychic type who is said to be able to grant any wish written on the tags of its head once awake. It only wakens for seven days every thousand years. If in danger, it will fight without waking up.

Together, these two Pokemon species make up a mythical parent-child duo. While Phione's mythic status is still disputed today, they are the only mythic Pokemon capable of breeding with Ditto.
- Darkrai-A Dark-type Mythical Pokemon that chases people and Pokémon away from its territory by causing them to experience deep, nightmarish slumbers. However, it is merely protecting itself, and means no harm. It is practically active on moonless nights.

Shaymin are able to dissolve toxins in the air to transform ruined land into a lush field of flowers. When sensing gratitude, the flowers all over its body burst into bloom. When exposed to the blooming Gracidea flower during the daytime, Shyaymin becomes Sky Forme Shaymin. Sky Forme has altered stats from its Land Forme and takes Flying as a secondary type. Shaymin will revert to its Land Forme at night or while frozen.

There is also a report that suggests Volcanion may have used its power to destroy a mountain range where Kalos was founded.

Marshadow is known to travel through the shadows of humans and Pokemon in order to become stronger by copying the power of the movements within said sadness. It has a form-like transformation known as Zenith Marshadow when its fighting spirit starts burning. It can utilize a unique Z-Crystal called Marshaedium Z, which allows it to use the Z-Move Soul-Stealing 7-Star Strike. Marshadow works for Ho-Oh, testing the hearts of any rainbow chosen ones and will attack if a not pure soul takes one of Ho-Oh's feathers.

- Meltan and Melmetal-Meltan and Melmetal are Steel-type Mythical Pokemon. Meltan is known be curious and expressive. It is instinctively drawn to metal that it could absorb, as well as other Meltan, in order to combine and form Melmetal. Melmetal was worshiped in ancient times for creating metal.
Can I catch a legendary, mythical or pseudo-legendary Pokemon?
A. It is impossible to catch a legendary Pokemon. Legendary Pokemon are UBER powerful. Just one Legendary, no matter who it is, could level an entire city in less than 10 minutes if it wanted to. For this reason it is impossible to catch them. Even with a Master Ball, you cannot capture them. They're just too powerful.
Pseudo-Legendary Pokemon are also incredibly powerful. Far more so than normal Pokemon. It would take a team of around five Pseudo-Legendary Pokemon to level a city in about 30 minutes if so inclined. One can catch a Pseudo-Legendary in their first form but second and third-stage evolution Pseudo-Legendries are too powerful to catch. Pseudo-Legendary Pokemon can be evolved from their first stage.
Mythical Pokemon so rarely visit our world that they are hardly seen and know how to hide themselves to avoid detection. It would probably take an entire team of three Mythical Pokemon to level a city in about 30 minutes if so inclined.

Realism
Q. How real is this rp?
A. This RP will have dark themes. Pokemon can be injured and can die within the RP as well as players being injured. Humans will also eat Pokemon and you Pokemon will eat other Pokemon. Magikarp for example is eaten by Pidgeot and Fearow. Bug-Type Pokemon like Caterpie will be eaten by Flying-Type Pokemon. Mouse-Type or rabbit-Pokemon may be eaten by canine, bird or feline Pokemon. People will end up losing their trainer license if they abuse their Pokemon and any Pokemon they have will be taken away from them. Trainers can even be injured by other trainers. Potions, burn heals, paralyze heals, and ice heals have little effect and full-heals, full restores and antidotes have no effect at all. Pokemon must be taken to a Pokemon Center after a battle or contest and even with technology, they are not healed in ten minutes, they will take time to heal with broken bones or severe burns/fatal wounds taking the longest to heal. Not every Pokemon that is injured will survive a potential surgery.
Q. Do Pokemon have set lifespans?
A. Yes they do. Smaller Pokemon would have a considerably shorter lifespan than larger Pokemon in the wild. An example: A Pokemon like Eevee would likely have a 12-14 year life expectancy at best, with all of its evolutions, maybe having a 15-17 year lifespan at beast. And that's when it's well cared for. In the wild, their life expectancies are even lower. 7-9 years for an Eevee and maybe 10-12 for its evolutions. Outstandingly good care and raising could lead to an Eevee reaching between 18-20 years of age before kicking it. But it's rare that a Pokemon like Eevee would live that long.
Lifespan Expectancies
Smaller Pokemon (anything under 3') typically live between 8-10 years in the wild, and sometimes hit 14 to 16 in a Trainer's care.
Mid-Size Pokemon (3' to 6') typically live between 12-20 years in the wild, sometimes hitting 25 to 28 in a Trainer's care.
Large Pokemon (7') typically live between 20-30 years in the wild, but in the hands of a good Trainer can sometimes hit 50.
Pokemon will reach their physical prime during for them what is the beginning of their second full half of their expected lifespan. So let's say we have a Charmander whose general life expectancy, if it goes through all three forms (Charmander, Charmeleon & Charizard) is roughly 25 years. By the time Charmander (likely already a Charizard) is around 12-13 years of age, it will have reached its physical prime. From there it's a slow downhill effect as it is with humans. And during their final full year of life, their health and fitness will deteriorate far more rapidly until they pass.

How do Pokemon who need to be traded evolve? Do I have to trade my Pokemon to evolve it?
A. No you do not need to trade your Pokemon to evolve. It will just evolve at a higher level. Pokemon that require a certain item to evolve must have that item in order to advance to the next stage of their evolutionary process. This is the one thing I hate about the Pokemon World, the trades. The same goes for Pokemon that are required to "learn" a move or need something like "friendship" to evolve.
