Post by Doctor Ivan Moonstone on Jun 5, 2016 3:15:56 GMT -6
Name: Doctor Ivan Moonstone (Short-handed to Doctor Moon)
Gender: Male
Age: 43
Species: Clefable Pokemorph
Appearance: Short, pink, and super-fluffy, much to his own detriment. Doctor Moon sports the same general features of a Clefable in a more humanoid form. An unbuttoned labcoat reveals a more casual pocketed shirt with writing supplies clipped inside. Shorts, but no shoes. Those aren’t very comfortable with the typical hooves that Clefable sport. Wings and a giant fluffy tail sprout from the doctor’s back, with a swirly pink pompadour sprouting nearly as far forward between pointed ears. Prescription glasses fastened to an adjustable headstrap dangle below curious eyes, always looking at the finer details of things.
Personality: Doctor Moon is incredibly blunt, almost to the point of being rude. If something needs to be said, he’ll only use as many details necessary to get the point across. No sugar-coating; those kinds of pleasantries waste time and energy. The opposite is true when speaking to Jimmy, however, as Ivan cares very much for his innocent demeanor. As a brother he is very loving, taking genuine interest in Jimmy’s day-to-day goings and the work produced by his acting. One of the quickest ways to spur the doctor’s anger is to direct hostility towards his beloved younger brother, whom he would sacrifice anyone and anything to protect.
As a doctor, Ivan genuinely cares for his patients’ health, performing the needed procedures to treat injuries and diseases with no corners cut. He has been known to cover the brunt of some procedures that his patients cannot pay for, often times accepting alternate payments in samples or assistance with a project. Race is not a factor in the doctor’s interaction with others, though individuals with more interesting genetic compositions seem to receive greater interest. Humans with strange powers, rare pokemorph and Gijinka species, elementals and chimeras, etc. Androids not so much, though he’s willing to try repairing or otherwise stuffing them with organic parts upon request.
One of Ivan’s greatest flaws is an unrelenting pursuit of science, often times throwing caution to the wind if it meant the project reaching fruition. The creation of Jimmy and regret for Rocket dealings has somewhat lessened the strength of that passion, through suitable inspiration can easily spark the fire up to full steam. Saving a patient, protecting family, FINDING A WAY TO KEEP THESE GODDAMN PINK HAIRS OUT OF FOOD!
History: Doctor Moon started his career as a genetics researcher for Team Rocket, working in the Cinnabar Island Mansion on biological superweapons. Though he was not its leader, he was a member of the team responsible for the creation of Mewtwo One. The project would carry on far after the destruction of the mansion lab and the disbanding of Team Rocket thanks to Ivan, who continued research in private. To him the initial Mewtwo was a failure due to its instability and inability to be controlled. Only through the development of a functioning prototype would Doctor Moon be satisfied with a job well done.
The genetic projects of the Tarot Islands would attract Ivan to seek asylum there following the legal blowout from the Rockets. The nature of his research warded off most investors, even in the science capital of King City. Only through Sun City’s mayor would the resources to jump into development be found. Ivan would become a Pokemorph to have a stable sample base for the preceding experiments over the next few years as he did what his others could not; creating a Mewtwo capable of showing compassion.
The experiment was of mixed success; a prototype ‘Jimmy’ was created with the desired stability but lacked the raw power of earlier Mewtwo variants. This would prompt the mayor to cut the project’s funding and leave Ivan stranded for resources. He eventually abandoned the project entirely after forming an emotional bond with his pseudo-brother, converting the lab into a clinic as a means to gain independent research funds without ties to big government.
These days, Ivan works as a doctor in the mornings and researcher in the evening. A newly-grown conscience developed through Jimmy’s love keeps his hands far away from the bioweapon trade, instead focusing efforts towards the study of Aura between different species. With the threat of the Manifesto growing by the day, the ability to create a means of resisting the aura-control devices possessed by their members could be necessary to keep Jimmy out of their hands. And the rest of the word too probably. Mostly for Jimmy.
Moves: Heal Pulse, Heal Bell, Metronome, Gravity
Ability: Magic Guard
Powers: Doctor Moon’s years of medical and genetics experience allows him greater potency with his Heal Pulse, being able to focus it with surgical precision instead of a wide blast. His clinic is equipped with the necessary equipment and DNA samples to create a first generation pokemorph; a procedure he can perform by himself in case of medical emergency.
Pokemon Owned: 2
~Pokemon~
Name: Jimmy Moonstone
Species: Mewtwo
Gender: Male
Moves: Confusion, Swift, Safeguard, Disable
Ability: Pressure
Nature: Naive
Details: Jimmy is the end result of Doctor Moon’s attempts at creating an emotionally-stable Mewtwo. The inclusion of Clefable Pokemorph DNA in place of Mewtwo’s normal Human sequences did just that at the unforeseen cost of overall power level. He refers to Ivan as his brother and is obsessed with cartoons and children's shows. This Mewtwo’s childlike mentality and Clefable-like features make it particularly adorable.
With Doctor Moon’s research finding cut, Jimmy does everything he can to earn money to support his brother’s continued study. He currently lives in Virbank City in Unova where he works as an actor for Pokestar Studios. The character of Rico Repulso, villain of the Mighty Morphing Poke Rangers, is currently the biggest role he’s ever taken. Doctor Moon never misses a single episode and owns every action figure of Jimmy’s character.
Name: Nurse Bliss
Species: Blissey
Gender: Female
Moves: Heal Pulse, Egg Bomb, Flamethrower, Toxic
Ability: Healer
Nature: Jolly
Details: Nurse Bliss is a specialty-trained medical assistant granted to Doctor Moon by the International Doctors Association, which supplies pokemon centers and other medical establishments with their signature chanceys and the like. Ivan has trained over most of its original moves with explosive and poison attacks for when his Metronome proves unreliable in defending the clinic from theft (practically always). It often acts as the primary doctor of the clinic during important research projects.

Doctor Moon cannot believe luck! Weeks fighting king city ethic board for funding. Weeks! Mayor of Sun City hear of project. Funding in single day. Doctor Moon thought funding to continue work never arrive. Disbanding of Rocket Team most unfortunate. Giovani ask no questions. He hear we can make biological superweapon, we get money for biological superweapon. Mayor very similar in nature. Doctor Moon not think too much of this.
Mayor of city want stronger policeman. Doctor Moon give strongest policeman created by man.”

“Research Log 2/24/20XX. Super Soldier Project. Client: Frank Chokeston.
Notes recovered from Cinnabar Lab detail most of procedure in creating Mewtwo specimen. Holes here and there; Doctor Moon smart enough to work out rest. Genetic samples recovered from specimen blackbox; original genome and last revision. Last revision produce Mewtwo of incredible power, and incredible control resistance. Always angry, always explodey. No good for project. We start from One Square, begin fresh.”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Research Log 3/9/20XX. Super Soldier Project. Client: Frank Chokeston.
Local genetics science is key to producing Stable Mewtwo! Analysis of Mew DNA reveal literal pudding of DNA. Pieces of many species, maybe all. Human DNA not present. Fusion of two provide unlimited genetic power with human ambition, creating Mewtwo. Also gives human instability. Islands filled with non-pokemon, non-human citizens. Watered down human DNA. If Mewtwo is made from lesser dose of human, maybe more stable.”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Finally got the damn thing on. AHEM, Research Log 4/28/20XX. Super Soldier Project. Client: Frank Chokeston.
Ideal sibling sample has been acquired. Original Mewtwo Human DNA come from genius rocket scientist. New sample will come from different genius, Pokemorph scientist! Myself. Doctor Moon need copious samples of Pokemorph DNA. Doctor Moon now has. Sacrifice in name of science. Donor is of Clefable Pokemorph variant; extra docility in genetic code just in case. If any DNA sample work, it be this one.
TURN OFF DAMN YOU!!! BAH!!! New fingers need adjusting to. Fine! If Recorder Tape not turn off, Doctor Moon wait for battery turn off! Go out shopping for stretchy clothes; new body too fluffy for liking.”

“Research Log 7/6/20XX. Super Soldier Project. Client: Frank Chokeston.
Subject Alpha is born. Health readings within parameters. Mental readings within parameters. Subject is… very pink. Sign of Pokemorph DNA boldly apparent. Ear nubs pointed and discolored. Feet end in hoove toes. Tail curls inward naturally. Large tuft of hair on forehead. No wing growths present, but torso discolored in same manner. DNA modifies features, not growing new. Maybe recessive. More research needed.”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Research Log 1/13/20XX. Super Soldier Project. Client: Frank Chokeston.
Subject Alpha health readings progressing as projected. Subject Alpha mental readings are… stalled. Not good sign for Psychic pokemon. Power readings also low. Subject able to communicate but development is far below projected leve~”
“Brother, why are you speaking into that box?”
“Oh, Box is audio recorder. Record voice for later. What is business with brother?”
“You’re my brother! Big Brother Ivan!”
“Doctor Moon is creator and scientist. Not brother. Now sit down! Doctor Moon very busy.”
“But… big brother…” *sniff*
“No buts! Did you touch dial? Power reading not this high before. And… rising? Wait, no. Nonono! No tears! STOP! NOT IN LAB! AAAAA~---------------------------------”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother! Brother!”
“Yes…... Jimmy?”
“Brother can I have an ice pop? Its hooooooooooooot!”
“Yes. You can have ice po-” “YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!”
“...” *Thump*
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Research Log 10/2/20XX. Super Soldier Project. Client: Frank Chokeston.
Subject Alpha continues to be stalled in both mental and power development. Power only spikes to projected levels when subject is upset. Subject has stopped throwing tantrums after taking title of Brother. Result is Mewtwo with mind of five year old and power of Magikarp. Unsure if issue with DNA or lack of anger. One is disaster for research, one is catastrophy. What will Doctor Moon tell client?
Jimmy! Ivan sees you! Curfew 10 minutes ago! Back to sleeping chamber!”
“I can’t sleep. Will you tell me a bedtime story?”
“Fine. Story then bed. Or no cartoons tomorrow!”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Research Log 12/16/20XX. Super Soldier Project. Client: ...none.
Mayor come to lab to check progress. Surprised to see Doctor Moon short and pink. Surprised to see Subject Alpha at full size so quickly. Upset when discover lack of supposed overwhelming power. Mayor say nothing, but next day send letter in mail. ‘Budget of city hall best spent elsewhere’. Funding for project cut entirely. Remaining funds low. Lab will close if new funding not found.
Not good day for Doctor Moon.”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Research Log… 12/17/20XX… Super soldier….
Subject Al… BAH! JIMMY IS GONE! Doctor Moon check sleeping chamber in morning. Jimmy not in room. Belongings missing. Doctor Moon storm city hall. Mayor know nothing. I say TAUROS DROPPINGS! Unless… could Rocket Team have found lab? Or Manifesto Team?
Doctor Moon spend day searching city in case Jimmy got lost. No sign anywhere. Going back out after recording. Bring Jimmy’s favorite ice pops. Anything to help."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Fault is mine. All of it. Doctor Moon treat Jimmy as science project, not person. Rockets make same mistake. No wonder Mewtwo One destroy lab. They deserve it, Doctor Moon also deserve it. Creature raised by monster can only be monster. Failure not in Genome. Failure in Scientist.”

“Research Log 12/26/20XX. Super Soldier Project. Status: Complete.
Project is unanimous, 100% success! In fact, project so perfect, no more models need be made ever! DNA samples have been destroyed. Production specifications shredded and burned. Lab equipment decommissioned and scrapped. Only piece left is audio logs. Reminder to Doctor Moon of most important thing in world. If you hear this message, do not follow in footsteps. Weapons are steel and brass, not flesh and bone.
Lab need new purpose. Medical clinic maybe? Doctor Moon do something good for once. Give Jimmy reason to be proud.”
