welcome to calamity! we are an au pokemon site based in hoenn. we do not have canons so you can pick them as your fcs! we have a short one hundred word word count. and you get to also pick your own starter! calamity is going to focus on providing users with a good and stable plot line to follow. this helps each character progress and some might even have a play in affecting the plot! we hope you enjoy your time here and if you have any questions don't be afraid to ask.
hey guys! we've finally hit our three month mark! let's stay strong. the activity check and gala have ended, if your character has been archived and you need them back please pm one of the admins! unfortunately, noods has steped down from his admin position. make sure you say your goodbyes here!

hello calamity! we're nearing the two months mark in a few weeks. how time flies! right now we have two things going on that need your participation. the first is an activity check! it is impotant that you check in so you don't lose your face claim. the second is the otm nomiations! we're doing it a bit different than last time. so please submit your nominations in. a vote thread will be up in the next few days. there will also be a formal event coming very soon, so keep your eye out for that. keep being cool!
we're currently about to host calamity's first contest in slatepor. trainers are flocking to the city to see, the city's been trying to get good pr since the gala, and it seems to be working! they're asking for both coordinators and volunteer judges to sign up.

DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING that is not yours, please. thank you.
He's still relatively new to Hoenn so he hasn't really had a chance to get to know people yet, let alone make many friends (aside from his poochyena, of course). Unfortunately, he's not really the approachable type, unless you are a Pokemon, so his chances of actually making friends are minimal at best and quite honestly, he's fine with that. He prefers his own company to others anyway. That's not to say friendship isn't possible though. Quite the contrary! It just will require a lot of patience and attempts at gaining his trust. Once you get him to warm up to you though, he turns out to not be that bad of a guy!
♦ He needs a friend to keep him out of trouble. Whether it be an older, more responsible type or a timid little soul who just wants to keep him out of danger, it would be greatly appreciated. The latter is more likely to get dragged along on his shenanigans, whereas the former would probably give these two a sibling or parent type of relationship with arguing and nagging and all the works. Dex just needs someone to keep him out of trouble since he has a hard time staying away from it.
HATESHIPS
He's got a mouth on him, that's for sure. With sarcasm and sass, Dex has an attitude that certainly takes a bit of getting used to, and has often lead him into tense situations thanks to people taking his words seriously. He doesn't help much either, being so brutally honest and generally lacking real social etiquette. The problem is, it's difficult to realize he's not just being rude for the sake of being rude, it's just his personality. This of course means he's bound to have some people who might not like him too well. Can you get under his skin though? Definitely. All you've got to do is mess with his friends and he'll make sure you regret it.
♦ Aqua and Magma are prime candidates for this. Why? He doesn't like their outfits. Seriously, it shouldn't really be hard to tell why he dislikes them, though he might favor Aqua more out of the two due to their shared affinity for Pokemon. He just can't say he approves of their methods too much. Magma? Fuck Magma.
LOVESHIPS
Last thing on his mind, to be perfectly honest. Dex has a hard enough time making friends, don't even get him started on a relationship! Unfortunately he's rather dull in this area because of his lack of interest, but should the right person come along and find themselves attracted to the delinquent, it's certainly not impossible for something to come out of it. He's demisexual though so while he could give less shits about what you are in terms of gender, he's not really going to be into you unless you form some sort of personal connection with him. He's pretty complicated, actually, but if you are into that, all the more power to you!
♦ I've got no plans for a final, really. If it happens, it happens so I'd prefer to go with the flow as opposed to making it a set in stone thing. And while he's not really the promiscuous type, people are free to flirt with him or simply have crushes on him. Good luck on trying to get any further than that, though!

ooh ~ so i like gareki a lot, he's hella cute. and aries is probably the last person dexter would want to run into, because he's annoying and childish and probably just the type of person to grate on your nerves enough to make you love them somehow. um... where was i going with this? anyway, i feel like aries could somehow worm his way into dexter's heart and be friends. he'd probably just end up in trouble right along with dexter, though... (he has his own personal stoic jerk friend to keep him out of trouble...)
um, i also have river oakley, who is pretty similar to dexter. im sure they could get along (or, well... tolerate one another). they also both have cute puppy pokemon so that's also a thing :3
Oh yes, Dex would try to avoid him like the plague initially but I imagine it'd be all in vain because Aries seems like the type of guy who'd push friendship onto a guy, no matter how grumpy he is. I think if they did interact enough though, Dex might grow to tolerate his presence, though he'd likely never admit it to him out loud.
As for River, you pretty much are right on the money. As long as River didn't take his snarky attitude too seriously, they should get along decently. I don't know about friends but Dex would certainly tolerate him. And they can have puppy play dates //shot
i mean, aries wouldn't push too hard, but he'd definitely treat dexter like a friend whenever they ran into each other... he's pretty persistent, though, so he'd probably take dexter's friendship as some sort of challenge to obtain, or something like that. because that's kinda what aries does, ya feel?
as for river and dex, they should totally meet because their pokemon get interested in each other's scent and then 'oh, it seems like your pokemon and my pokemon get along... i guess we should talk?' also i just really need to post with river because i keep forgetting to do that and then not having time
Oh god. Dex has no chance. He'll make it more challenging and end up accidentally encouraging the kid xD
Yessssss~ Sounds perfect actually as that would be the ideal way to keep Dex around long enough to spark up a conversation. I'm cool with threading these two whenever you get the chance then. <3
He probably would but he'd mostly be asking him questions like "how the hell do you put up with him?" because he literally has no idea how he can do it and is probably pretty amazed. But at the same time I don't know how Aries would handle two grumps //shot
Already replied :P Let me know if I ought to change anything <3
nah, aries has been dealing with jackson's grumpy ass for a long time. he's used to grumpy pissbabies by now. (i don't even know how jackson puts up with aries's shit tho... it's a mystery to this world probably)
no, it's perfect!! i'll respond in a bit ~ im super tired now tho |:
I offer you my playful flirty shorty Kohaku. He's generally a rather affectionate playful guy although he does have his outbursts, especially when it comes to his temper. Therefore he generally tries to keep out of trouble so 8'D he can go both ways with either keeping Dex outta trouble or ending up getting dragged into it lulz. They could end up as friends cause Kohaku is also new to Hoenn and was brought here because of a letter he recieved. Although 8'D i apologize now he's a shameless flirt so once he's comfortable he'll likely playfully tease Dexter once in a while if not outright hit on him from time to time.
Oh no. If they did get to that point to where Kohaku started shamelessly flirting with him, I imagine Dex will just try his best to ignore him or shove his dumb face out of the way like the tsundere he is. "Kohaku, please BI"
Really if they become friends and Kohaku did stick around with him a lot, it's inevitable that he does get roped into his troublemaking, but that doesn't mean Kohaku couldn't be the one who tried to tell him that it wasn't a good idea and it just totally went in ear and out the other.
Either way, I think I can see this being a thing, even if Dex will be questioning his sanity due to having a huge flirt for a friend. It helps that he's new to the region too because while Dexter wont readily admit it, he's kinda iffy about being on his own in a place he doesn't recognize. So it'll be nice having someone who can relate. In fact I can see him getting lost a shit ton so they can get lost together and groan inducing pick up lines can occur //shot
Omgh pfft pfft that'd just encourage him because "awww you're so cute when you're trying to be serious." 8'D and he'd totally know what he was doing and that he was purposefully being a little shit but wouldn't care cause mmmm~ <33 Dex is a cutie and he wants lol but if Dex honestly told him no or to stop he'd respect that and back off.
i can definitely see him traveling quite a bit with Dex cause <3 its going to be a huge comfort to him to have someone else who's not familiar with the area around. Although sometimes he will be traveling alongside another friend he's made who's a worse flirt than he is 8'D but omgh i just imagine he gets roped into one of Dex's situations and he just rolls his eyes all "Here we go again. I leave you alone for two minutes, two!!" XD
>D its okay to question it Dex. Everyone questions their friendship with him eventually. Its the best part about being friends with him, he's lovable in a "why does he flirt with me so much" sense XD he does it with his straight guy friends as well lol but omgh yeeesss XD i can see them both getting lost and KO is just "....did you look at the map?? >/ i dont think you read it right." pfft pfft fun times getting lost is the best. Dex will always be blamed even if it is Ko's fault lol
Oh my god xD Dex is just gonna have to tell him to chill if he get's too overboard, but as long as he doesn't like try to get physical with him, he'll just shake his head and question what he'd done to deserve this.
They'll fight like an old married couple if they ever got lost. "Did you even look at the map?!" "I don't need no damn map! Get off my back! >BI" //insert poochyena chewing on discarded map in background
naaaah as flirty as he is Kohaku is very insecure so he really woulnd't have the confidence to do anything physically unless Dex was the one initiating it but lulz i imagine there are a few times where he'll get a little too into his flirting and Dex will have to reign him in a little lol Ko will just pout and whine that Dex is no fun but obey in the end lulz
-snickers- omgh i can def see this happening LOL just them at the side of the road and maybe people are coming along and its that typical "Oh look maybe they no where we are. GO ask for directions." "I dont need directions" and its just a constant back and forth with them 8'D
<33 but yes we must lulz whenever you want to get a thread going just let me know im always willing x3
They should totally be fine then :] Dex will just have to carry around a water bottle for when Kohaku got too bad. "Thirsty little shit >BV" //squirts
But, yeah, these two are going to be fun, I can already tell. <3
Honestly if you would be willing to start we can get a thread going right now. If you'd rather I start one though, I can probably have one up in the morning uwu
