Set in the original region of Arciel, Legends Rising is a route-inspired, but not strictly route-based, Pokemon roleplay. Pick a faction, pick a class, and strike out into the wild to take on the League, master Contest coordination, research the mysteries of Pokemon and Arciel, and much, much more. Will you be a classic trainer? A criminal? A farmer? Choose your destiny on Legends Rising.
To participate in the Community Garden, first post in this thread looking for a Pokemon. A mod will tag you and reply with stats for one Pokemon you find, including color and possibly even evolution depending on the species. Reply again encountering and trying to capture the Pokemon. Once you succeed, do not post in the thread again unless looking for a new encounter.
You get one free catch per month, and up to four encounters per month. Each catch after the first will cost you 100 Pen. Be sure to note how many Pokemon you've caught for the mod when you capture one.
Pokemon in the Garden have a +20% capture rate with any ball, and will never flee.
The Garden stock will rotate out at 11:59pm site time on June 30. After that, no new encounters will be spawned. However, anyone who has an ongoing encounter that isn't yet finished has until 11:59pm on the 15th of the following month to finish trying to catch their encounter. After that, the thread will be locked and archived.

A community garden, filled with pokemon with rare colorations...? The garden alone was beautiful - Kuro being visibly keen on admiring the flora, and Makoto briefly pausing to sniff at some flowers. However, even while they were indeed here to admire the scenery... Makoto was also interested in exploring the garden, to see just what might appear, from the rustling foliage in the area... In particular, a nearby bush would begin to rustle; drawing both individual's attentions. Kuro, in particular, would shy away to hide behind Makoto's legs; peeking just around them, to see what might come out of the bush...
... What was it, that they had run into? Kuro the Zorua - Level 5 - 5/5 Energy
Julia had rambled excitedly about this community garden so much to the attendant that they'd had to gently usher her into said garden and just leave so they could take care of other visitors. Julia didn't seem to mind, though, already looking around with bright, starry eyes. A whole garden full of uniquely colored Pokémon... How awesome was that?!
Lucky, perched on her shoulder, let out an awed coo of his own. Once the two were further in, he suddenly launched off Julia's shoulder and flew off. "Hey!" Julia called. "Wait up!" She ran after him, partially out of curiosity about what he'd find, partially out of worry that he'd get himself into trouble again.

"What do you think that we'll find out here, Anne?" Ettie would ask in a soft and hushed voice, as she stalked along the gardens; low to the ground, like how a prowling wolf might move. This garden was completely new to her - but in hearing that rare pokemon might be lurking about here, well... It was safe to say, that Ettie wanted in on it, and wanted to see just what all the place had to offer! Anne, though, would only make an unsure "Rowrl..." in response. Certainly, there were rare pokemon here; but what were the odds that they had of finding one...? OOC: First roll!
Those odds, apparently, were quite good! Trotting out from the foliage, an autumn-colored Skiddo would appear; quietly glancing about at his surroundings. A relaxed fella; Ettie couldn't help a warm smile at seeing him, on top of the odd colors. Not a puppy - so Ettie wasn't completely interested in him - but... Maybe Azur would like him? Or another trainer? All else fails, she didn't mind if he ran away, either.
With that in mind, Ettie would pull out a pokeball; deciding to throw one straight away, just to see what happens! Catching the Skiddo with a Pokeball!
Out of the bush, came none other than a little Bulbasaur! A rather serious-looking one, if the look in his eyes implied anything. In fact, he seemed quite serious, on challenging Kuro to a little fight with a sharp cry! Kuro, remembering the rough time he had fighting the Skarmory, wasn't totally sure if he was sold on the idea of fighting with the little plant dinosaur...
... But Makoto was more than happy to reassure him, patting him on the head. "There there, Kuro. This fight won't be so bad as the one against that Skarmory, I'm sure." They'd murmur to the little fox; smiling gently. "Think you could give a fight another shot for me?" Kuro would be quiet, thinking it over - as though weighing his options... Though, not wanting to disappoint Makoto, he would soon nod - turning his attentions to the Bulbasaur, and preparing for a fight!
This one would, thankfully, go much better than the fight with the Skarmory; given that this Bulbasaur was an unevolved pokemon, on top of not being quite as bulky as the steel type. Kuro, in fact, seemed to be doing quite well; being higher level than the Bulbasaur, after all! Before long, the Bulbasaur would begin to tire, and Makoto would pull out a pokeball; tossing it at the pokemon. Catching the Bulbasaur w a pokeball!
...Community garden they said... filled to brim with oddly colored Pokemons they said... He does encountered one of those rare colored Pokemons once before... and he's honestly interested in what sort of Pokemon that he'll get. Thanks, collector guy. He wish he know who the person personally was so he could send him a bit of a thank you letter or something but for the meantime, he would enter the garden, together with some other people, then started looking for the Pokemon. Anything would be great really! Even if it doesn't fit his taste he could just wonder trade it or something like that...
"C'mon, let's check it out!" he told his team. Does he have any preferences? Well not really... But he thought a Skiddo would be nice, or a Bulbasaur. Those are tough lookin'.
...Score, that's what he want. Bulbasaurs are generally friendly, and this one looks like it got quite the personality too, being a bit mischievous, poking Agate with its vine whip, but did not hit him with it or anything. So... He guess he'll try tossing a ball at it anyway. Fighting it might not be the right choice here, but either way, he need to hurry up to give the next batch of trainers their chance of entering too!
A community garden, filled with pokemon... Andrew, honestly, found the prospect rather interesting; spending time in a beautiful garden was already relaxing enough, but given his passion for pokemon as well? Well, to say the least, he wanted in on this - even if he was shying away from the other gardengoers, all the while. Inari, meanwhile, would be close at his heel - sniffing about at the air, glancing around curiously. What pokemon would they meet, in this Community Garden? OOC: First go

A Bulbasaur was now under their belt; and an interesting one, at that. Makoto was split on whether or not to keep the little grass type; they tended to prefer dark and fire types, as well as more feline or vulpine pokemon... But this pokemon, while being outside Makoto's usual comfort zone, was quite beautiful; pinks and especially the purples. Huhm...
Well, in any case, Makoto would take the time to patch Kuro up after their little match; giving him a chance to rest, while they'd continue onwards, through the garden. Being cradled in Makoto's arms after a exhausting little spar, Kuro was content to simply relax like this. OOC: Second Roll

Score! The odd colored little Skiddo was caught! Ettie would giggle and grin as Anne retrieved the pokeball for her; pocketing the ball once she received it. She couldn't wait to show this to Azur; maybe he'd like a pretty autumn-colored pokemon like this, even if this Skiddo isn't entirely up her alley? And if not him, then maybe another trainer will be willing to trade with her!
Her luck was feeling pretty good, in any case; and so, with Anne at her side, she'd continue to search around the garden for more pokemon! OOC: Second Roll
