WELCOME TO THE SINNOH REGION, a massive island rich with exploration and Pokemon. Legends say that Sinnoh was the very first Pokemon region to come into being;
and so the nefarious Team Galactic has begun searching for the time and space Pokemon in an effort to destroy and recreate the entire Pokemon Universe. Will you step up, earn your badges,
and fight to defend the world? Or do you believe in Galactic ideals, wishing to follow their efforts in starting anew?
[ 08.15 ] Welcome to Sinnoh! Team Rocket have arrived in Sinnoh and have left a very daunting message here. With the introduction of a new class comes another promo!
Check out the rocket promotion here and stay tuned for many more exciting events!
major news alert!
witness reports from all over the region has been flooding in about strange happenings at the three lakes. what's more perplexing is that these occurrences seem to be happening spontaneously at the lakes. just moments ago, a burst of light erupted at the locations and residents in the vicinity have reported that the lake-side pokemon have turned aggressive and attack on sight.
However, there have been rumours and sightings of the legendary lake trio which has had trainers flocking in from all over the region.
Another year older, another year wiser. Twenty held no surprises. She wakes up, she performs her normal morning routine, and she tucks her new badge in her jacket. Celestic city is only a midway point for new rangers, but her duty was clear. Go undercover, keep an eye on the festival, try to have a little fun. You seem so sullen all the time, Lena. It had only been what, a week, since the incident, and yet she's still caught in a haze. Nothing is the same-- and it's not just because of Pumpkin's death. The skunk, buried back at home in Eterna, was only the breaking of the threshold. Lena had been crippled since the day she left home. Losing, losing, losing-- there was no victory, besides gyms. She was tired of being down. If she was going to be useless to herself, perhaps she could offer herself to the greater good. The rangers were always looking for more recruits, and she met the qualifications of a high-ranking officer.
Which is why she got to go back to the festival undercover, as opposed to that gaudy orange uniform the new recruits are forced to wear. Her evaluation had gone through the roof- she was a perfect officer, dutiful, committed. In just three days she had made over six arrests and brought peace to bath situations. She didn't have to climb the ranks quickly, she was presented with a good opporunity, and she took it. And now, with this word of galactic causing trouble, or, potentially doing so...
Liam. She hadn't spoken to him since. No missed calls, no ignored texts. It was like they never met. She was okay with that. Her grudge for the dead pokemon stands, yet she reminds herself to hold him free of blame. It's her fault. Pumpkin shouldn't have been out there. Simple. And yet...
She rubs her face with her hands with a heavy sigh and grunt, standing from her seat on the bench. The sounds of childrens' gleeful screams and parents chattering floods her once again as she re-enters the world of the living.
"And our rare pokemon courtyard will now open!"
Footsteps shake the ground as the announcer fades.
Try to have fun.
If going on a rare hunt was fun, then sure. She molds with the controlled crowd-- 3 at a time. The field of flowers is large enough everyone should have their own space. Pursing her lips she releases her numel to hunt along side her. "Here we go, Jeb...""
Not having fun, not having fun! The smell is what gets her first. She feels her heart race and stop at the same time. No, no, no. Gibraltar doesn't know what's wrong-- he paws at the ranger the best he can, but she's unresponsive. The tail comes next. That stupid smelly waggling tail as the wild stunky backs up out of the flowers, tripping and plopping right on its bum. Lena is petrified. "P-Pumpkin?" Her voice is a cracked whisper. The wild pokemon, obviously having been oblivious that anyone was around, screeches and whip around, fur bristling as it growls at her, defensive. No. Not Pumpkin. Not pumpkin. Her stunky would have let off a poison gas the second it got scared.
Still... she hates and loves the pokemon in front of her at the same time. She's stuck, unable to do anything but just stare at the pokemon. Her numel, panicking and confused, stops on the ground with an earthquake in an attempt to both attack the wild pokemon and snap his master back into reality. "NO-" Lena stumbles herself, falling to her knees as she's left to lean over the fainted skunk, her heart racing, her face covered in concern. She stares. Its chest rises and falls as it tries to regain its strength. Resting one hand on her numel's head as praise and another on a great ball, Lena catches the thing. It will be ages before she's brave enough to use it, but she can't just leave it here. Not after all she's felt.
"Thanks, Jeb"

As she progresses the sun begins to set, and the festival behind her lights up in the dusk. More pokemon will be out at this hour-- she gasps as a haunter materializes in front of her. She frowns. "I already gave up my hopes on a Gengar, sorry." she turns her nose up at the thing-- if she was going to have a ghost it would have to be more impressive than that. She gave her gastly away for a reason. "Earth power, Gibraltar."
The numel's eyes glow, a bubbly flaming mass of rock digging itself out from out of the ground behind the pair. The numel throws the earth power attack at the gastly, huffing triumphantly as the ghost type falls in a single hit. Lena gives a victorious tut and catching the thing for the same reason she caught the duskull- profit.

Finally, the main event. Lena raises a brow as the turtle huffs and puffs its way right to her front door, looking up at her with a gigantic, turtle-y pout. Lena tuts, tapping two fingers on Toad's pokeball. He would love to suck the life out of his water-counterpart... but Gibraltar needs a challenge. The numel looks wary. "You're fine." she comments, flashing a smile at the camel as it looks up at her, startled. Lena is taking a chance-- but by the looks of it, the turtle isn't stronger than her pokemon. "You'd be surprised how strong you are. Earth power." The numel gulps and squares itself up with the braced turtle. The attack as a duplicate as before, the stones battering the water-type into the ground easily.
"Protect, it's coming back" she warns, nodding in approval as the Numel erects a barrier in time for the wartortle's water gun. The stream splits off and turns into a puddle around their feet. "Finish with Lava plume, we'll leave it for someone else.".
Fire and steam gurgles out of the hole on Numel's back, following by a firey explosion aimed right at the turtle. The thing withdraws into its shell as it faints, and Lena continues her search.

Lena looks up as the fighter towers over her, fatty sacs jiggling with every thunderous stomp it takes. She holds her breath, face defiant as she holds her ground. "Amnesia, lava plume" she speaks through tight lips, encouraging the numel to paw at the ground to rear itself up. And for a second after, it completely forgets where it's gone. The numel almost begins to wander until it bumps into the hariyama. "Now please." she doesn't dare move a muscle. One hit and she'll be in pieces.
But Gibraltar acts fast-- the lava plume melts into the Hariyama's skin, hot coals releasing the smell of burning flesh and fat into the air. She crinkles her nose-- it's not good. The sumo pokemon lies collapsed, and Lena turns to greet her evolving pokemon. The rests her forehead on the large camel's with a content sigh. "If you had told me I'd be where I am now I'd call you crazy. Great job, Geb." she pats the Camerupt before recalling it. This was still a very important training session.

Slowpoke in her arms, Lena continues searching the field with the other participants. Pacific can't keep up on his own, hence Lena's struggle to drag him around. And then she's on the ground, flat on her back, slowpoke heavier than before. "What the fuck?" she heaves the slowpoke off of her, looking down at the small, cryptic dinosaur-like pokemon. She scowls at the thing. "Excuse you." The cranidos screeches at her, digging into the ground with one foot, signaling another charge. Lena wouldn't be able to take a headbutt like that to the ribs, not without breaking a few.
"Water pulse, Pacific." she says out of pursed lips, hoping the pink blob will comprehend what the hell she's saying. Sure enough, one douse of water if enough to faint the little fossil pokemon, who's promptly captured before another greedy trainer takes advantage.
"We'll need the spunk."
