Well, naturally any legendaries are going to be out of the question. As for one of a kind pokemon (pokemon you get through events that can be bred but don't show up in the wild. So, starters, pokemon like Castform, Lucario, Tyrogue, Eevee ect.), I'd say you should limit yourself to only one of these. You can have one, but really make it count. Make it special (because remember, your trainer lost all of his/her pokemon except for 3 or < 3)
Other than that, you SHOULD start with your pokemon in their basic forms (wouldn't really be fair to say "lolol my 3 pokemon are Dragonite, Charizard and Tyranitar") If you want to have a pokemon in first evolution or want to have a baby pokemon that's evolved (Ie. Pikachu, Jigglypuff, Clefairy) you can have that too.
But really, just use your best disgression. Whatever team is best for your trainer's backstory, you can use, (and honestly none of these rules are completely absolute) and hey, if that means using a second evolution pokemon, then so be it. If I saw anything I really didn't like, I'd let you know. =]

Yeah, I'm not cheap like that.
But question, how much time has past since the apocalypse.
And I sort of have a suggestion for the setting, like for instance, constant flooding, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis and such, and that a lot of areas are either flooded, or theirs a desert encompassed by high mountains. Another suggestion is that where land and water meet, there should he a high amount of elevation on the land as if it's trying to stay taller than the water.
I'm probably gonna start out with a Poochyena, then get a Totodile, then Aerodatyl.
And my backstory is most likely gonna depend on how much time has passed between the apocalypse and such.
Also, another suggestion. Some of the dialogue made the trainers sound insane in the membrane and aggressive, like a Lass would come up too you, claiming you touched her despite the fact that you are five feet away and attack you. Maybe a lot of the trainers we face could be batshit insane.

The setting you suggested is actually something really similar to what I had in mind.
I was thinking of making the time of the disaster maybe about 6 months to a year before the start of the RP. That way it was still a fairly recent event, and people are still going about discovering which of their relatives made it out, which of their pokemon made it and so on, but at the same time people have managed to form little shelters to protect themselves from the endless tsunamis and the sweltering heat, and trainers have had the time to come to terms with and even get used to the idea of not having luxuries like pokemon centers and to get used to the way this new world works.
There are little makeshift civilizations being made now. None of the old Hoenn towns managed to survive because of the rapid change in scenery, so all of the towns created in this new terrain are very small, makeshift things. Secret bases proved a great boon to trainers who use their little makeshift hideaways as shelter from the storms and roaming trainers.
I like the idea of having some of the trainers being all sorts of crazy. (Especially because the idea is now less "I want to have a sporting battle with you" and more "I want to see you and your pokemon dead")
Plus people might be fighting over supplies, better bases, ect.

Okay, I've got a story Idea for my character, who's probably gonna be chasing down Latios in order to obtain the location of Rayquaza so he can reawaken him so Rayquaza and restore the balance. Or at least, that's the quest my character is going to be on. So wait, do they know that Groudon and Kyogre are behind this? Or not?

They don't. Some people believe it was the legendary pokemon who cause the cataclysm. Others believe it's Arceus and the gods of the pokemon world punishing trainers for acting greedily, and others believe its the fault of weather patterns and climate change. Most people don't know and a lot of them can't be bothered to chase after such ideas, since they're generally just out to survive.
Heh, maybe you can amass a group to go up and try to reawaken Rayquaza. I can't say the other teams would like it much though. All of the anarchy gives the teams a LOT of room to grow.
Also you CAN have more than one character if you wish. Or introduce more as the story goes on. I'm more interested in creating an interesting narrative than anything. New ideas are always really welcome.

So yeh, I guess my first character is gonna be the lone wanderer type of person who's trying to bring balance back to the world.
So wait, are we gonna be a part of this new "team"(the one in the intro?), or are they the antagonists?

You can be part of team 'Enigma' at the beginning if you want. Actually you can start off as part of any team. (I'll be playing NPCs for each. Or if anyone wants to take up being in charge of one of the teams they can (that'd make things WORLDS easier on me too o-o;; so seriously anyone who wants to play Team Rocket or something, have at it.)) Enigma is the only team who's goals are to bring things back to balance to the Pokemon world, but they have their own, shady reasons for doing it.
Most of the other teams play antagonistic roles. Rocket, Magma, Aqua, Galactic do anyway. I haven't played any gen 5 games yet, so I don't know what team Plasma's goal is yet.
((I'm starting to almost feel like this could be like one of those Pokemon RP forum games. But I don't think we'd have enough people for that. Unless a lot of people wanted to play a bunch of different characters))

Can we go for the criminal leaders? For instance, I'd like to play Giovanni if possible.

Sure thing. It would be great if we could have a Giovanni in this thing. Also Maxie, Archie, N, all up for grabs. OCs AND Canon characters are up (although I would prefer to stay away from the game protagonists like Ash, Brendan, May, Dawn ect.)

What about being a trainer who just started out and pretty much just witnessed the whole thing?
(As in, just got the starter, heading for the first town when it happens)

Heh, that could work for a plot line. XD why not. Get a starter, suddenly stuck out in an apocalyptic setting, somehow survive, "WTF DO I DO NOW?"
I like it! ^_^ It can work!

Here's an idea for an RP (Of course, no one will pay attention ;_;):
There is a land where our characters (whichever you choose or make up) will obtain these awesome weapons (The RP'ers can decide what those weapons are), and depending upon the tier of their element, they can have 12, 6, 3, or 1 animal totem(s). I'll post the tier and the numbers as soon as anyone approves. The object is to catch your animal totems into the weapons in the form of spheres, and defeat monsters by using the orbs to transform into the totem animal.

Also, the Supernatural RPG is looking more like a mix between X-files, Castlevania, Cthulhu Mythos, Harry Potter/Percy Jackson, Dresden Files and probably more shit I'm just not thinking about.

Here is mine. It's a fantasy-based one with lots of fighting. We currently have one bad guy (played by BlackSun), so it be nice to have a few more. I pretty much play the important good guys, so it be nice to have a few of those as well. @_@ You can also be neutral. :3
After you read up, if you have any questions, feel free to stop into the chat (it's on the forum) and ask away.
My brother is also making a Norse Mythology RP forum but it's currently under construction. I can post a link to it on here if anyone is interested. :3
EDIT: >> Looks like Sun beat me to it....but still, anyone is welcome to join!

Eldritch Tower
Since the dawn of time, many legends and stories of creatures have been spawned over the time of humanity. Of monsters, dragons, demons, all happening in times of darkness, when technology dies out and humanity is reduced to the prey of the unknown. Each of those times, a Tower appears, a tower so large, and so high, it goes beyond the heavens to a domain that even God himself envies. This tower appears once every 1500 years, and with it, civilization starts to instantly collapse, and the Supernatural return.
Now in order to stop humanity from dying out, you must brave this eldritch tower and destroy it once more, for the sake of Mankind.
