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.

GRAND OPENING !
Welcome to KOHAKU REGION's grand opening! If you're interested in joining, come check out our grand opening giveaway!
as if he had been doing it all his life, J reached out and flipped delilah's copy of the meny to the child's section, where it said 'hot chocolate provided for each child's meal ordered'.
he had a suspicion that they mixed alcohol into the hot chocolate as well, but said nothing to the other trainer.
she should theoretically have been offended that it was in the children's section, but her pride had already flown out the window the instant she tried to wrestle the blanket away from J. placing the menu on the table and running her finger down the options, she tapped one of them.
"chicken tenders. shouldn't be too hard to eat." hopefully.
when the waitress arrived with the food, she happily burned her tongue ow sipped the hot chocolate. "... huh." she frowned. "it tastes kind of weird -- oh, whatever."
delilah picked up a tender and dipped it in the provided ranch. mm, grease after a hangover.
J refused to tough out the pasta and let it sit as he switched drinks to the hot beverage. the sweetness of the cocoa was enough to keep J awake and alive for a while.
"yeah?" said J, neglecting to mention the alcohol once again. he suspected that it would not go down well at all. hopefully the bitter powder would counteract the alcohol -- however it worked. J wasn't a very scientific person. "is it any good?"
J had a bad feeling about his meal, anyway. it was almost telling him 'no do not eat', and so, he saw no issue about pawning it off on delilah. "i don't mind," he said.
delilah didn't question J. this was the man who probably pushed bitter powder for a living or something. "if you say so." she finished off the mac and cheese, going back to her tenders. "it's really good, though."
"yeah, it does look good," said J. he did not eat but he still had an idea of what looked edible and what did not.
how his diet went from hunting berries to cook stew with to purely bitter powder and hot chocolate was anyone's guess. all in the span of one forum area, too.
