PMD: Eternal Skies (Animation)
Project Overview
Summary
Eternal Skies is the first ever 3D animated series in the PMD Community and will be based off of Explorers of Sky. There will be 20 episodes (1 for each chapter) around 5-10 minutes of each episode. I've wanted to make this for a very long time and now I am finally going through with it. My goal is to make this one of the greatest PMD projects ever like Arceus' Wish. Cause yknow we got rom hacks and web comics but no animated series so hopefully this project will kick start a new era for the PMD community. To put it lightly we will simply save PMD so ya i'm looking forward to working with yall!
Requirements/RecommendationsI am mostly looking for people who match how i imagine the voice of the character! that is my top priority. but good acting skills and a good mic may give you an edge when it comes down to a close decision.
Requirements
DISCORD (Please Include Username in Audition Notes) https://discord.gg/2WFC5cfv5N
Age 13+
Recommendations
A good mic
Have played Explorers of Time, Darkness, or Sky
Voice Acting Experience
All character casting calls are listed so you may audition for all and any you wish. All of these are generally long term commitments. As you'd expected, only 1 person can get cast per character so if you don't receive a response from me, it probably means you don't fit my vision of how the character sounds. but if i believe you would fit well in another role, I will let you know. No castings are set in stone until I have started producing the episode in which they make their debut. I will however message you in advance if I like your audition. Roles are placed in order of priority in which i need to cast.
This is completely a fan project, so payment would not be possible on an impactful scale, but CERTAIN VOICE ACTOR'S depending on the character can ask to have their Patreon, Kofi, or other support page linked in the Description. Only applies to the core characters of each episode.
Please also include GRUNTS and GROANS for each character you audition for. (like attacking and getting hit)
Please refer to these 2 sources for reference on characterization of the pokemon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0PlwsTLoM0&t=49s https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/PokemonMysteryDungeonExplorers

(calm but progressively gets slightly more sentimental) I haven't seen this in a long time. it's as beautiful as i remember. i've just been too busy to come and see it. But i've missed this fantastic sight. I wonder when it was when i last saw this... The last time was... oh! the last time was when i met (hero) I noticed someone right here. (Hero) was unconcious. That was when (hero) and i... that was when our adventure began...
Sunrise! It's pretty isn't it. Maybe it's because we were in the future for so long. But i never realized the sunrise could be so renewing. The sun rises, then it sets. we take that for granted, and that's only natural. But the things we take for granted are really the most essential. and they are precious.
(Sad and tearing up) All those memories of my time with (Hero) Memories... of (Hero).... but now... (hero) is gone... and (hero) isn't here anymore............ B-Bidoof! Bidoof.... Waaah!!!

It looks like.... i have to say goodbye. Dusknoir told me... if we changed the future the pokemon from the future would disappear. That's why... i am destined to disappear too. Thank you for everything. i am going to disappear from here now. But Rowlet, i will never forget you.
(Shocked) I was a human from the future?! And i was Grovyle's Partner on a mission to prevent the planet's paralysis?! And that's how i ended up in Rowlet's world?!
(Confused) What's this weird sensation? I don't know why i'm feeling this way. I- Wait a second! I know this place! Have i been here before. Maybe... does it have something to do with me? Before i lost my memory?

POKEMON DETECTED POKEMON DETECTED! THE FOOTPRINT IS ROWLET'S THE FOOTPRINT IS ROWLET'S!
Sorry, I'm usually the one to do Sentry duty. But today, my dad gave me the duty of updating the boards. That's why I can't man my post. It would be great if someone could take over my sentry duty for today.
THe footprint is... uh... umm... the footprint is... maybe Riolu's. B-but it's not a footprint you normally see around here.
Loudred (Male Young Adult/Adult) Pronunciations are LOUUUUDDD and OBNOXIOUS
Role: Side Character
Summary: A loud and short-tempered apprentice who tends to shout all the time, and serves as the guild's morning alarm clock. Because of this, he comes off as a bit... harsh. Also a bit of a braggart, he's convinced that he's the strongest of all the apprentices.

- male adult

Hiya! You brought me some perfect apples, didn't you? Thank you! Huh, what's wrong. It's ok, i understand! It's all right! nobody wins all the time. Don't feel blue, don't feel blue!... Where are the other perfect apples? oh... (sniffle sob) urrrr- urrrrrffff waaaah!!!
Well, Hiya! looks like we all agree! We all believe our friends that's great! Then let's begin searching for the hidden land! Hm? What's wrong? Oh, is that all? You don't need to worry about Chatot. Chatot is convinced right? Because Chatot believed Rowlet's Story all along!

Summary: Wigglytuff's right hand bird and head of intelligence, Chatot handles most of the day-to-day details of running the guild.

(Nervous/shocked) WHAT?! Well no! No, no no! It's not true in the slightest! Our training program for exploration teams is as easy as can be! Well, well, well. I wish you had told me upfront that you wanted to be an exploration team. Hee-heee! Ok! let's get your team signed up right away! Follow me!

(Sacrificing himself) Urrgh- Dusknoir. I'm- I'm taking you with me. we're going back to the future! ... (Hero) it's up to you now. Rowlet,this is it for me. I can never come back here again. Watch (Hero)'s back. Promise me! You must and you will. Because you can, Rowlet. you two are... the greatest of combinations (Dusknoir: "Release me!") Were almost there. Quiet! ... (Hero) Take care (Hero) ... i was lucky to have known you. Though the parting hurts, the rest is in your hands.
Everything ends eventually. Even if history is not changed... Even if the world of darkness continues in its current state... Eventually the day will come when I won't be here anymore.
