I'm Developing a Region Idea!

Hades0918 · November 6

I've already explained a bit in a post called "Pokémon gen 10 theory and idea" but I've been adding to it in my head. I'm going to copy and paste what I has and add a bit more that I've thought of since then. This is also where I will be updating as I get more ideas. I'm also going to research Medieval Europe (where the region is based off) and come up with lore and Pokémon based off of it. Here's what was in Gen 10 Ideas;

A region divided into three or four. Each area would have different Pokémon, there even being the same Pokémon with a regional change different for each of the divided sections. For example, let's say there's a new version of Pikachu for this region, but each part of the divided region's Pikachu is different. Even though it's the same map, the areas are so different that even the same Pokémon will be different. Anyways, there will be a giant castle in the center of the land where each section connects. The region would be based on Medieval Europe. These different sectors are on the brink of war, preparing their people and Pokémon for a fight. The king at the center castle is trying to keep peace, but failing. Us, a foreigner, now comes in to keep peace. As we explore the reason for the fighting and conflict, we discover lore that runs for generations and interesting traditions and stories. In the end we find the reason and fix the problem.

Ok, so that was what I had. I've came up with more.

I decided it's based in the past. It isn't past Galar but it directly ties to Galar lore. One example of how is this is the region the brothers that stopped Eternataus came from. There will be other ways it connects, but that's major way. It's its own game, not a Legends because it only connects to Galar. It is its own separate region.

All the new ideas so far are Pokémon. I haven't came up with plot or better region descriptions yet.

So you know what I think of when I think "Medieval Europe?" Scratch that. Medieval in general?

Rat infestation, witches, plague, death, royalty, and knights.

So there's a rat invasion. As you walk down streets these rats will often be seen in alley ways and sometimes on streets. To try to fix this, the King has ordered for foreign cats to be brought into the land to hunt them. These cats are Meowths. As I said, this is connected to Galar. It's not shown in the game, but the Meowth migrate to Galar, leading to its Galarian form.

For the plague as a Pokémon, I don't actually think the plague. I think the plague doctors. It's design I'm not fully done with, but it would have a hooked beak (the mask) and wide black eyes (the goggles). It would be either Fairy/Psychic, Dark/Fairy, or Psychic/Poison. I'm leaning most towards the last one. Its unique move is Healing Curse (name under development). It has a completely random effect on the target. This is true whether an allie or opponent. It can heal damage, deal damage, heal status, cause status, or down right fail.

My idea for the witch is actually a regional version of Jynx. It would be either Dark/Psychic or Fairy/Psychic. I think it would have a unique ability that gives it Fire resistance buy Water weakness, representing the belief about witches from back in the day. It will often be found with a raven Pokémon, but I don't have anything for that yet.

Now then, death is what I'm most excited about! It would go up to Stage 1. The Basic would be the size of a Jigglypuff. It has a small black cloak with a hood. Its hands are small claws and it puts its fingers together and curve them when attacking. Its face looks like a baby-ish skull mask with two purple eyes. It evolves via Dusk Stone. Its evolution is glorious! What I picture is, anyways. It is around the size of the average person and it has a long torn up black cloak with a hood. It doesn't have legs, hovering/floating instead. Its arms are sharp scythes that are like Syther's, but much cooler. Its face is still like a skull but it's not the "cute" way anymore. It looks rugged and beat up, the bottom jaw gone leaving sharp teeth on the upper half. Its eyes are now glowing purple, ominous light shining off them out of the mask's eye holes. For the Basic its backstory is it is a child that had a gruesome death, their soul unable to rest after. The evolution is the one that comes when one is about to die to take their soul to the Spirit World. It rarely shows itself to humans, so if one comes to you its your time to pass. You can run from it. Try to hide. It will hunt you down for as long as it takes and will not rest until it takes you away. It will use any means neseccery to get you. It is based off the Grimm Reaper. It is pure Ghost.

For royalty there is a king that rules the land, but I have Legendary Pokémon designed off of a king and queen. Which you get is determined by the game you get. The Queen is a Fairy/Dark. It manipulates those around to believe she's innocent and do her bidding. Once done with then she ditches them and leaves them helpless. The King is Fairy/Steel or Fairy/Fighting. It rules over if its subjects with "an iron fist" (if steel that's literal). It is kind to its allies but shows no mercy to enemies. I don't know how I'll incorporate them into plot, but I'll figure it out.

And for the knight it will be a regional Gardevoir. It is Fairy/Fighting and its dress has now wrapped around it, creating armor. I've never known what the red thing in its chest is. It probably is mentioned in a Dex entry, but I don't remember. Anyways, the point side now sticks out its back and is extremely sharp. It has a small thing that sticks out its front. It grabs that and pulls, taking out the red piece and using it as a blade. Left where the thing was is its black hole energy, swirling in the hole. It uses that as a last resort. It will do absolutely anything the one it loves requests, whether it be fight dirty, eliminate a target, or destroy an entire village with a black hole. Ask and it will do. Gallade is still here and the same as its original design.

I have ideas for regional Pikachus and new Eeveelutions but they're under development.

I also know the new gimmick. You know how Zacian/Zamazenta had the sword and shield? That's what this is. Chestplate, helmet, sword, shield, javelin, spear, etc. Also, the weapon dogs are common Pokémon, but often only used by heroes because they represent honor and strength. What's fun, though, is you can give any Pokémon these items. You could give Zacian the shield and Zamazenta the sword. Or something else entirely. Ordinary Pokémon, like Charizard, can be given these items as well. They always add Steel to the type unless already steel. This means the Pokémon can have up to three types. The armor/weapon determines the stat change and ability.

There is also a mountain range where Kubfu and Urshifu live and train. This is their home region. There is also a Fusion Strike, Fighting/Psychic, and I don't have a name for its move. When you use it the move hits 3-5 times and each is critical (Rapid). The next turn it begins to charge up energy. Turn three it lands one, powerful critical blow (Single). It is a Psychic type attack.

I'll update as I come up with more!

Hope y'all like!

So I'd like to explain a bit more on the Jynx thing

I know witches are weak to fire, but I've read some things where they were actually immune to it and let people think they were dead

I found that interesting but wanted to keep the water weakness

So I meant to include this is in the post but forgot

Two more Charcadet evolutions

One is a torturer. It has flaming chains instead of hands, which it wraps around opponents and pull them in. It releases them as they get yanked to it and smacks them with its chain. It likes to play with its prey as it fights, tormenting and taunting them, luring them in and dodging at last second and trip them with its chains. It'll let the opponent think they have the advantage before actually trying. It likes to drag the fight on, waiting to finish opponents until it has had its fun. It enjoys making opponents suffer. It is Fire/Dark. It's move is Blazing Chains, a fire type move that binds the opponent, trapping them. The next move it uses won't miss. It has the chance of making the opponent flinch and/or get burned.

The other is a mercenary. It doesn't have ethics. It doesn't have honor. It's not bad, though. It just does what must be done to get the job done. It likes to get in and get out, no games. It is Fire/Steel. It has steel fire daggers for fingers which it can launch at enemies. It's move is Silent Slash. It launches the daggers at enemies 3-7 times in a row. The move has a high chance of being a critical hit, especially when used repetitively. The first time you use it it doesn't miss and do increased damage. It's actually a steel move, not fire.
