Story:
It has been 10 years since the events of Gold and Silver. (We are going by the merit that Ho-oh and Lugia were optional like in the original, i.e. they're still wild pokemon in this.)
Just now, a new pokemon terrorist group has immersed. They work in the shadows, and not alot of people know alot about them, not even the police. The only thing for certain that's known about this group, is that they referred to thier organization as Team Ultima, and the higher ups in the organization use very rare and powerful pokemon. Also unlike other terrorist groups before it, they have no problem using thier pokemon to attack not only their foe's pokemon, but the trainer themsleves as well. In fact, some of the higer-ups in the team prefer to aim for the trainer from the start.
A bit after Team Ultima was immersed, a new corporation emerged in Saffron City, known as Starr Corporation. It was founded by a man known as Victor Starr. Soon after it's establishment, Starr Corporation grew like wildfire, making advances in pokemon items, pokemon research, and pokeball techinology much faster then thier competiton, Sliph Co. Just last year, Starr Corporation managed to drive Sliph Co. into extinction. Starr Corporation only used it's money to help sponsor things such as the Goldenrod City Expansion Project, joint-ownership of the Goldenrod Global Trainer Station, and even the Kanto-Jotho Pokemon League itself. Lately however, there has been claims that some pokemon placed up for trading in the Goldenrod Global Trainer Station have gone missing, but all the police investigations on the matter failed to turn up anything, either due to lack of permission to investigate further into the Station due to Starr Corporation's influence, or because the police themsleves mysteriously vanished while looking into the case, or were paid off by Starr Corporation to cease the investigation.
All while it seems Starr Corporation is slowly trying to get all of the major industries on it's side, Team Ultima is still very active and strong in the shadows...it seems like it's just waiting to make it's move, but what is it's purpose? Some rumors going around claim the team is trying to capture the legendary birds in order to weaponize them to make a unbeatable army, some claim that the team is trying to cause a war between Johto and Kanto in order to try and rise up admist the chaos. Will the true intentions of both imposing forces be revealed in time?
Now then, whenever you post, try and start them with this:
[Character Name]/[Alignment]/[Place]
This is helpful for those who have more then one character. Now then, let's begin...
Victor Starr/??/Starr Corporation HQ - Saffron City
"...Come in." Starr beckoned forth the man who was supposed to tell him the daily progress of the corporation.
"...Yes sir..." A white man anixously appeared in the CEO's room, "Today, the stock has gone up by 10 points, we are finalizing the Goldenrod HQ with some business operations already taking place there, and..."
"...what about the Global Trainer Station?" Starr cut him off mid-sentence, uninterested in the other reports of the day.
"Well sir, we investigated the matter like you wanted us too, and our conclusion is that the rumors are indeed true, it seems like Team Ultima is behind the break ins and theft. Also like you requested, we used our behind the scene connections to hinder the official police investigation into it."
"Good, make sure the police stay under our thumb. If they need more...funding..to make it possible, tell them we have plenty of that to throw around." Starr said.
"Sir, may I ask why you want to not let it go public that Ultima is behind it?"
"Simple...it will tarnish the reputation of Starr Coporation if it gets out that we can not even protect our own GTS from some punks...and this isn't the first attack Ultima made against us...it seems they're targeting us more intensely now." Starr said to the aide.
"But...couldn't you use that as positive press? Say that you're combating this foe for the sake of the public?"
"I thought about that, yes...but with Ultima targeting specifically us when it comes to big business...might draw some people to think there might be a connection between us."
"..and I trust there is none?"
"Why do you need to ask?" Starr laughed at the aide, "There are no such connections...it's simply because Starr basically owns all of Kanto now, and I'm trying to extend my 'rule' so to speak to Johto..they feel threatened...but we'll crush them soon and unite the world...for the better. I'm going to Goldenrod personally to oversee the operation to try and drive these punks out of my city."
Jack Drake/Evil/Goldenrod City
"Hmm..well, this is the place." Jack side, his Shiny Mawile by his side, as they looked together at the house that the team has bought for him. "This is our new home for now." He turned to faced Mawile, "But it's not where the new base is being built...hmm..I was told some of the Commanders transferring to this area would come here to meet me for mission status...well, let's go and wait for them." Jack finished talking to his Mawile with a smile in which it smiled back, and the two entered the house...
Chris R. Kane/Good/Goldenrod City Square
Chris was in the middle of a pokemon battle with a friendly trainer, Billy, who had challenged him to a battle out of 3 pokemon. Both trainers were down to thier last pokemon, now that Billy's Kingler knocked out Chris' Dugtrio, but not before it doing about over half damage to Kingler.
"Heh, you're pretty good." Billy said.
"Same here," Chris said, "but now it's time to end this!" Chris then threw his Pokeball, and out came his Shiny Charizard.
"..Shiny? Nice...however you fail to see that my Kingler can probably K.O. him easily with a water attack..."
"Yes...but my Charizard was trained for speed, and you know what attack he has?"
"What?"
"Charizard, use Thunder Punch!"
Charizard then swooped in fast and deilvered a ThunderPunch to Kingler's face. The punch was enough to K.O. Kingler.
"...unbelievable...I didn't know it could learn ThunderPunch...congrats the victory is yours." Billy said, taking the loss well. It was clear that both trainers had a great time, wiin or lose.
"You were good as well. I'll battle you again later!" Chris said, and walked off, walking beside his Shiny Charizard, "now then Charizard, let's get to the pokemon center.."
