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.

"stop crying tobias," imogen offhandedly tried to console her sobbing squirtle, her eyes focused on the ripples her feet made in the water as she swung them back and forth. at his trainer's pathetic attempt at sympathy, tobi's cries strengthened into full blown wails.
imogen finally turned around to face him with exasperation, now having no choice but to deal with the crybaby before he brought unwanted attention to her section of the docks. the entire reason she visited this area was to relax and think about her next move. while prosperina was a truly beautiful city, there was no way she'd be able to think, much less relax, in a city so congested and loud.
sighing again, "tobi, i promise that i won't let anything happen to you. the docks are safe," imogen cooed, rubbing his little bald head. "there are no monsters here. now stop crying and relax, for arceus' sake." tobias sniffled and wiped at his eyes. he didn't mean to be such a bother, but his trainer was just dangling her flesh in the deep, scary, ocean! what if a pokemon swam up and chomped her legs off?! ...what if it chomped the ENTIRE DOCK OFF!!! his eyes widened comically at the thought and immediately his sobs returned full-force.
There were no monsters at the dock? Boy, the Krabby was insulted. He was a monster. He was king of the krabbies, or so he thought. How dare someone say he wasn't scary? He made his livelihood out being terrifying. He was deeply insulted. Some whining pokemon and their trainer were going to get it he swore! He crept his way over to them, real silent like see. Like an old movie villain, see. He released a haze, hoping to blind the pair before attacking them with a vicious bubble.
"Arghhh Tobi you were perfectly fine just a second ago--!" Imogen paused, frantically looking around as quite suddenly the dock became engulfed in a fuzzy haze. "What the heck?" she murmured and quickly pulled her legs out of the water, slipping her flip-flops back on before standing. S-Squirtle, squirt? Tobias whimpered in fear, a thousand nightmarish scenarios flying through his mind before he was knocked off his feet by a barrage of bubbles.
He heard his owner swear before commanding him to use tackle and tail whip. Tears stung his eyes as he struggled to his feet and gave Imogen a pleading look. She wanted him to battle this monstrous Krabby? Was she INSANE? Surely it would be better to call out one of her braver pokemon, like Snubbull or or or anyone except for him! Imogen poked his tummy with her toe, letting him know that she was indeed serious about her commands and expected him to follow through like a good little pogey. Well FINE then, if she wanted to be like that... Tobi twirled around with a pout to attack his new opponent.
squirtle (lvl 5 otl) squirtle was hit by haze and bubble. squirtle used tackle. squirtle used tail whip.
The Krabby King dodged the tail whip attack, but was hit full on by tackle. That hurt, see. No one was allowed to hurt the Monster King Krabby, see. There was no way that the cute look that the turtle-thing was giving him would work on him, see! He was a cruel and unforgiving villain king! So he used leer and another wave of evil bubbles, see!
Tobi's eyes were closed during the entire attack but tears were still streaming down his itty bitty face. He only opened them again when there was a pause in the Krabby's movement, only to be blasted with another face-full of bubbles. Squealing in fright, Tobias rubbed hard at his face and ran around in circles until he tripped and fell onto his belly.
Imogen didn't bother scolding him since his theatrics made him avoid Krabby's leer. Squeezing the bridge of her nose, “Tobias, quit crying for a second and listen to me,” the girl deadpanned. “Use tackle and then follow up real quick with a yawn, alright? Do that and I’ll buy you some ice cream later.” She rolled her eyes when that last bit abruptly pulled Tobi out of his sobfest.
Ice cream? Well… shit. Why didn't she just say that in the first place?
squirtle (lvl 5) squirtle was hit by bubble. squirtle dodged leer. squirtle used tackle. squirtle used yawn.
Whoa, did that girl say ice cream? Ice cream for the crybaby Squirtle, but no ice cream for the Krabby King? Such impudence would have to be punished. So the grumpy Pokémon gurgled to itself as it unleashed another stream of bubbles, all before charging in to attack the Squirtle. Unfortunately, the thing had been blinded by rage and was smacked in the face by the Squirtle's Tackle and the creature's contagious yawn.
Suddenly, he was beginning to feel drowsy.
