This world is inhabited by creatures that we call pokemon. People and pokemon live together by supporting each other, but now the scourge threatens the safety of the entire region. Kohaku has become a dangerous place, where children stay at home and only brave souls go adventuring.
Welcome to KOHAKU. Come for the nightmares. Stay for the tea and crumpets.
The season is SUMMER. It is easy for survivors to forage for food from the land, as there are entire abandoned farms ready for harvest. On the downside, you can smell the corpses.

Larsa fully intends on kicking Alia's behind once he reaches Nerio City, which is why he finally set foot in the Proserpina Gym in the first place. The secretary at the front had redirected him to a simple yet functional lift that would take him into the heart of the earth. There, Jasper awaited.
He was left in the darkness, all to himself. He fully intended on beating Alia. It would be no easy task, but he would find a way to do it. Not even his older sister was more stubborn than he (arguably, both were equally pig-headed). This gave Larsa something to brighten his mood. Perhaps such an attitude would carry over to the gym battle. At his side, Sauron shifted about anxiously. This was the pair's first gym battle, after all. "Don't worry, Sauron," Larsa piped up. "We'll be just fine."
The elevator doors parted, and Larsa stepped into the arena.
if anything, it is hoped that for your attacks, you would actually state what species they are in case i pull a t-rex and smack myself in confusion.
"hello, trainer!"
it was the voice of a man all too used to challengers walking straight into his gym and demanding that he battle them in a challenge. jasper was ready for this. in fact, jasper was always ready for any sort of challenge that came his way, even if it meant a loss for his party.
the lights switched on upon jasper's nod, and his gym assistants rushed to dart out of view. couldn't spoil the visual effects, after all. "challenge accepted!" jasper proclaimed, even though larsa had previously said nothing. "well, you're here to challenge, right?"
"I am, yes," Larsa said cheerily. He figured that Jasper received enough challengers to realize that people who waltzed into the Proserpina library's basement were here to fight for the Fossil badge instead of trying to dust off old books. Of course, Larsa would not have been entirely opposed to that; books were nice.
Walking away with his first gym badge would be even nicer though.
The Larvitar at his side crossed his arms, watching Jasper steadily. "Well, here I go!" the man called. Sauronleaped forward, ready for action. The Pokémon's little body began to pulse red as he began a frenetic dance.
"wow, a larvitar!" jasper finally noticed larsa's pokémon, and he smiled at the creature before releasing one of his own. it was no secret that he specialized in fossil pokémon -- other creatures were fascinating, but none quite like fossilized pokémon. there was an aura of mystery around them that jasper was keen to understand, and what better than a battle to do so? (fifty or more battles down the road, jasper still didn't understand them ...)
"this is lapis!"
the omanyte gave a little chirp. its tentacles wriggled in the air, before it spat a beam of shining ice towards sauron.
"that was aurora beam, an ice-type attack," jasper said, grinning.
Sauron hissed at the Aurora Beam and managed to tumble out of the attack's direction. "Good one, Sauron," Larsa said, giving his Pokémon a nod. It appeared that Jasper knew how to pick on weaknesses too. The Larvitar was going to have to be wary. Still, the Pokémon reeled back, lunging forward with a fist slamming hard into the Omanyte. He was going to have to hit hard and hit fast.
larvitar dodged aurora beam larvitar used brick break with acc boost larvitar used bite
jasper grins at larsa and notes the bayleef. he seems excited and uh i guess lileep did something without being ordered to. jasper is happy to see jade attacking on its own.
