So last week, I introduced you into the new battle system of my dream inspired pokemon game. This week I will be focusing on the story and, boy, what a story it will be.So ever since Pokemon R/B/G/Y, the pokemon trainer Red has virtually disappeared from the world. With the exception of his appearance in Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal as a ridiculously difficult trainer. Well he's coming back! That's right the title of this new pokemon game will be...

Pokemon Zenith: The Return of Red.

Of course, you still will be able to choose the name and gender of your player. However I didn't want the the title to say Pokemon Zenith: The Return of (your name here). That's just plain silly.

So as you might have gathered, you will be controlling Red yet again in this new title. While Red is doing his solitary training (or whatever the hell he's doing in the mountains) he hears a voice telling him to go see professor Oak. When Red visits Oak, Oak says that he was just about to contact him. He explains something has happened to all of the Pokemon gym leaders of the world. All of them are requiring challengers to wager their pokemon if they want to battle them. Oak wants Red to go to all of the gym leaders in the world and defeat them to find out what's going on. He also informs you that your rival, Blue, has already been sent to investigate as well.

Sidenote:

Now I wanted to have Red go to the gyms in all of the main regions (Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and Unova) but that may result in a very long drawn out story. I also thought of having the story in one region but then having the option to replay the story in a different region. Both options have its pros and cons. If you think of a better soultion, please let me know!

As Red goes through and defeats the gym leaders, he slowly starts to learn that the gym leaders were being mind controlled. As he investigates further, he finds out that Team Rocket is behind the mind control devices. He stumbles into one of Team Rockets secret bases to learn what they were doing with the pokemon they took from the gym challengers. It turns out that the were fusing pokemon with humans! It was said that there once was a legendary pokemon which had the power of a pokemon but had the appearance and the intellgence of a human. The pokemon was even said to have spoken to people!They were using some kind of strange machine to do the process.Team Rocket was trying to recreate that legendary pokemon but were so far unsuccesful.

Red, being horrified of what Team Rocket was doing, could not stop them just yet as he had to resuce all of the gym leaders from being brainwashed and taking the challengers pokemon. So he called Blue to ask if he could find the main base for Team Rocket. He then spoke to Professor Oak to find out more about the legendary pokemon. Tenshi, the legendary pokemon, was discovered a the same year Red was born. It was said Tenshi was born as a result of a scientific experiment by a famous professor at the time, Professor Angelo. When Tenshi appeared in the world, the professor was never seen again. Neither was the machine. Professor Oak said it the machine ran off the energy given off by a very rare fruit. He also said that according to the research Professor Angelo left behind he wouldn't be able to live for more than a few days.

After finally liberating the final gym leader, Red looked to stop Rocket from fusing those pokemon and humans once and for all. Blue informs him that he found the base but it was crawling with Team Rocket operatives. As Red and Blue are trying to figure out how to infiltrate the base, the liberated gym leaders show up and volunteer their help. The gym leaders distract the guards out front while Red and Blue sneak in back. The leader of Team Rocket greets them as Red and Blue make it to the fusion room. Along with the leader Team Rocket is the newly mind-controlled Elite Four! Oh yes you will have to to defeat them. Before battling the Elite Four, however, Red notices the machine and how it had a very strange fruit inside of it. After you defeat the Elite Four, the Team Rocket leader is very upset and ends up battling you.

After you defeat him, he gets desperate. He then tries to fuse himself and his strongest pokemon....and it works! With his new found power, he quickly defeats you. He then goes on to cause chaos upon the world. Feeling defeated and not knowing what to do, you go into a slight state of depression. Which then causes Blue to foolishly go and try to defeat the Team Rocket leader himself. After Red learns of this, he goes to try and stop Blue but he was too late. Blue had been defeated as well. The Team Rocket was about to lay waste to the two trainers when all of a sudden, he is attacked by some outside force. The two look up and beheld the legendary Tenshi.

Tenshi and the Team Rocket Leader battle in the most glorious of fashions. It was the greatest battle Red or Blue have ever seen. The battle rages on and they fought evenly for a short while but the Team Rocket leader appeared to be gaining the upper hand. Tenshi had also appeared to be losing power and was knocked down to the ground near Red.

Tenshi spoke to Red telling him that he must fuse with his greatest pokemon to defeat the Team Rocket leader.It was then Red realized that Tenshi was the voice who spoke to him when he first started his journey.Tenshi explained how he was able to live as long as he has was a rare fruit that he harvested before he left. It was the same fruit that was used in the machine. Red decided to fuse with his pokemon to defeat him. As Red was running to the fusion room, Tenshi warned him that there was no more fruit left and that with the stress of battle he probably would only last until the end of the battle. But Red kept running, his mind focused and his heart resolute.Fused with his pokemon, Red went into battle with the Team Rocket leader.

After you defeat the Team Rocket leader, he cries out in anger as his body fades away. As Red helps Tenshi up, everyone comes over to them to thank Red and Tenshi. Red and Tenshi start to slowly fade away as they say their good-byes to everyone. Just before they completely fade away, Tenshi then turns to Red, and says "I couldn't be more proud....son."

And with that, Red went into history as the greatest pokemon trainer ever.

Okay so I know I got a little literaryat the end there :P But I liked it.

I take ALL opinions. Thanks for reading!
