The X-men run missions and work together with the NYPD, striving to maintain a peaceful balance between humans and mutants. When it comes to a fight, they won't back down from protecting those who need their help.
Haven presents itself as a humanitarian organization for activists, leaders, and high society, yet mutants are the secret leaders working to protect and serve their kind. Behind the scenes they bring their goals into reality.
From the time when mutants became known to the world, SUPER was founded as a black-ops division of the CIA in an attempt to classify, observe, and learn more about this new and rising threat.
The Syndicate works to help bring mutantkind to the forefront of the world. They work from the shadows, a beacon of hope for mutants, but a bane to mankind. With their guiding hand, humanity will finally find extinction.
Since the existence of mutants was first revealed in the nineties, the world has become a changed place. Whether they're genetic misfits or the next stage in humanity's evolution, there's no denying their growing numbers, especially in hubs like New York City. The NYPD has a division devoted to mutant related crimes. Super-powered vigilantes help to maintain the peace. Those who style themselves as Homo Superior work to tear society apart for rebuilding in their own image.

Got a plot in mind?
MRO plots are player-created the Mods facilitate and organize the big ones, but we get the ideas from you. Do you have a plot in mind, and want to know whether it needs Mod approval? Check out our plot guidelines.
Koga laid on the grass lawn of the mansion covered in a green blanket his arm was the only part sticking out, his skin was blended perfectly to the background behind it. all except for an image that was on his hand that koga was cuasing to rotate. a poke ball seemingly hovered there rotating waiting for the match to begin. waiting for his new acquaintance Shanna to say those magical words.
as he waited he thought about the moves and how they would pull them off about his costume and his hair it was going to go great! so long as his costume stayed where it was supposed to.
Regardless it was going to be fun, and while he loved Juka, He was going down. and his little bubble too.

Shana was predictably nervous about the entire affair, sure she had played pokemon, in fact she had many of the games and even knew the Pokemon Koga was trying to portray, she still hoped she would do well at this. With a deep breath she lifted her head and called out. "Kecleon, i choose you!" she shouted sounding excited because the normal fear was already starting to fade from her.
She smiled as well, she would be going against Juka who she knew well and who wa sprolbely her best friend right now anyway. Steeling her resolve she folded her arms inf ront of her and waited for thinsg to begin, brushing a few stary blue locks of hair our of her eyes, she would get those cut some day. This whole pokemon match was extreamly interesting anyway, who would ahve guessed they would be suing their mutations so creatively.
Aside from a nagging little bit of guilt at the back of his mind, Juka was still riding high from his grandest of victories against Kai and his tangela. It wasn't really his fault that he had caused Kai to fall unconscious, after all he couldn't have possibly known that hurting Liana would also hurt Liana's owner. However, that fight was now behind him and it was time for one more victory on his road to Pokemon mastery and the title of Grandest Pokemon Champion of them All.
Juka and Neko's second opponent would be Shana and her Koga Kecleon both of which he considered to be friends but both of which were also sure to go down in ultimate defeat. No one could stand up against his most awesome and powerful of drifblim, especially not some lizard boy.
After some victory laden experience and a level up, Neko had gotten a bit of an upgrade, reinforcing his little radio heart even more than before. Juka floated into the field of battle, drifblim once again hidden within a fabricky pokeball. He bowed deeply to his blue haired opponent (just because he was going to win didn't mean he had to eliminate his sense of chivalry) and yelled out, "Drifblim I choose you!" With the pull of a carefully tied string, the pokeball fabric fell away revealing the drifblim underneath.
Koga's skin erratically flashed black and white around where the poke ball shifted toward the ground down his arm. once it reached the ground Koga emerged from the green blanket nest. his skin a bright green, his hair in a pair of twin mow-hawks , His costume a pair of boxers that were sewn in the front. they had big red diamonds on them and all the way around on the back was a small curled up lizard tail. He leaned forward and with a gravelly tone uttered his battle cry.
"KE-CLE -On!!!!!"
his skin imediately shifted to that of the background, but as was the Pokemon's flaw so was Koga's he couldn't blend those diamonds away. from here it was up to Shana. He was in good hands, the Woman knew her Pokemon, if she was nervous as an amateur trainer.

Shana watched as Juka used his drifbloom, which she had to admit was awesomely created, but she was determined to win, and they did have an attack that could help them win this, a few actually. She smiled focusing more on the fight then her own self loathing. Smiling as Koga even sued the Pokemons name, she gave a bit of a curtsy to Juka as he bowed, she was wearing the black top and pink skirt that the character in the show wore, while the female one, dawn if she recalled right.
"Kecleon, Use Actiont power!" she said as she used her own power to lift some paper balls into the air and kept them there for a secound, then watching for Koga;s cue, sent them at drifbloom. Hoping they would strike the creature or whatever you called it. She had to admit to herself that she was already having fun though.
Kogamon looked absolutely amazing! Juka was more than happy to admit that fact, to himself or to others. In fact at the (obviously victorious) conclusion of this battle he would have to go up to him and compliment him on just how accurate his Kecleon was. That, however, would have to wait until such a time as he wasn't the arch enemy of the day. Once victory was had, then compliments could be meted out and not a moment before.
Gestures of mutual respect exchanged, Juka was ready to do battle. He had learned from his last experience that tackle was not the greatest move to have in his arsenal and, after his epic level up victory dance, had replaced it with a secret new move. That, however, would have to wait.
"Neko Fly!" And with those words, Juka and Neko both lifted off the ground to circle high above and wait for the perfect moment to come hurtling back downwards and bring the pain.
Koga hops foward and then back as the paper balls float around him. He was already pleased with Shanas opening move, it had 100% percent accuracy...except that when an opponent used fly well you automatically missed. yar they had gone over there four moves that they would use and he was sure that another would woke quiet well, but for now he couldn't help but look up in awe. He changed to a grass green color as to throw off juka and Neko from that angle you probably couldn't even see his diamonds.

Watching as Juka and her pokemon fly up into the air, she shook her head and smiled, only Juka would think of such a thing. She took a few moments to think of their next move and then thought of one that would work, maybe it could not hurt Juka's pokemon but it could certainly help in another way.
"Kecleon, use DIG!" she shouted and hoped it would throw juka off. If he wanted to hang just out of range, well they could certainly do that as well. The trick would be responding after Juka came down in a way that would conenct and maybe even win the fight. Shana had to admit this was a thrill, she had always avoided things that looked like battle in actual life before. It held a strange excitement, despite being a game.
Neko circled, preparing his moment of attack. Just as he was beginning to make his descent, picking up speed as he went along, his opponent disappeared! Suddenly his opponent, so green and obvious, simply blended into the background. He thought he could see the vague outline of his enemy, but it was difficult to say. No turning back now though.
"Kecleon, use DIG!"
Was that being cheap? Juka certainly thought so even though even though he had done much the same thing with his fly, resulting in an auto-miss. Just as Neko approached the earth and shortly before colliding with it, he managed to stop moving. Even if he was forced to miss (how unfair was that?) he at least wasn't going to suicide his poor Neko.
Koga hit the dirt and went under the blanket that was on the ground he popped his arm back above the ground and simulated a mound of dirt with some of the coloring on his arm. after the Drifblim was just over the ground and had missed, Koga popped out of the ground missing an uppercut, He knew the rules, he couldn't hit a flying Pokemon, He'd have to complement Shana on her use of the dig as a dodge attack, it pretty much told Juka that any time he flew, they would dig. taking a bit of strategy out of the game. He stood there still blended with the scenery, but now at a closer distance the diamonds would give him away.

She watched as their dig tactic worked just the way she needed it to, Juka missed and now they were in a position to be on the offence again. Koga was doing his part very well She smiled a moment thinking about their next attack they had agreed on four to use and she wanted something to surprise Juka and his wonderful creation. Smiling she had an idea, kecleon was ana wsome pokemon becuse he could cover such a wide range of attacks and normal had the atvatage of being immune to ghost. "Kecleon, Use flame thrower!" she shouted dramatically pointing her finger at Juka's creation.
Having failed in his fly attack by the dastardly digging counter, Juka decided it was time to step things up a notch. And by step it up a notch, he meant astonish his opponent, hopefully so much so that he wouldn't be able to successfully make his next attack.
Juka sent Neko out with the intent of colliding with the Kekleon and, in the moment just before the collision was to occur, pressed a button so that the radion inside his drifblim lout out a loud obnoxious sound sure to astonish anyone.
"Kecleon, Use flame thrower!"
Oh oh. That was not the sound of an attack Juka appreciated. Drifblim fabric was, alas, very very flammable.
Koga slid to a stand and blinked as the Drifblim flew at him his left side was toward Juka and his right arm was held to his chest he mimed fire coming out of his mouth much like a child would imitates an elephant or some such, all the while Koga changed the color of his right arm to various shades of fire. He would have landed the blow to if it hadn't been for what ever the heck noise that came out of the balloon. was that a fog horn.
Did that count as flinch, he didn't know. Either way, he was ready for Shana to try another move.

Astonish made her pokemon flinch and ruined her chance with flame thrower, but one of the best things about a kecleon was they had a strong varience of moves. She deeply wished she had chosen another one from kecleons wide move pool but her fourth attack would work well anyway. She just had to decide weather to use it oe to try one fo the other moves they had already done.
Deciding to use their fourth move, she wnated to try and end things quickly after all. She smiled wondering if Juka would be at all prepared for this next attack. "Kecleon.....ICE BEAM!" she shouted hoping he would be able to land the attack this time, if not she considering trying flame thrower again, though Ice was technicly more effective then the fire. She reminded herself of the types moves had again, and tried to keep her excitement down, having lost her fear in the moment.
Juka tried his very hardest not to show his relief when the flamethrower attack failed to hit his poor drifblim. He knew that would be the end of him if it somehow did manage to hit. Almost anything other than fire he could deal with,but fire had a rather unfortunate tendency to burn things. Especially things that were flammable. Like bubblefull drifblim happened to be.
Juka put his hand into his pocket and took out a black orb. He bubbled it with a tendril and sent out towards Neko. "Neko, Shadow Ball!" With those words he sent his drifblim charging, black shadow ball in front of him, intending to hit his enemy pokemon with it.
"Kecleon.....ICE BEAM!"
Well that didn't sound much better than the flamethrower attack, now did it. Hopefully his drifblim would be able to survive being a popsicle.
