The Kosei Region: A vast region that has essentially been torn apart and put back together on multiple occasions by a mixture of cataclysmic natural disasters and terrible power struggles before finally settling only decades ago. It is said that the vast wasteland in eastern Kosei was once a vast forest with many towns and settlements scattered throughout, now only three towns and the once famous Treasure Park exist within the empty wastes. Team Noble: A team shrouded in rumor as mysterious tournaments are held all around the region bearing their seal. Strangely enough, the trainers that win are often found days after the tournaments with nothing taken, their pokemon in perfect shape and seemingly no memory of anything that happened after they won. Some scholars speculate that the group's emblem is quite similar to that of a group of scientists that tried to bring life back to the vast wasteland in the east. [hr] Just checking to see if anyone would be interested. There will be some competition, in fact we'll be using http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/ to simulate the gym/trainer battles. If you absolutely cannot use showdown for some reason I'm sure we can work something out. Edit: The story so far: A bunch of trainers from all over have come to the Kosei region to begin their journeys. Just like any region there are gyms and a Pokemon league (in the anime's style of a final tournament between all trainers that have eight badges). Team Noble has been spotted by the both of the current groups that were on their way to Mesalon to challenge the gym there, putting everyone in danger in the form of a shadow Aerodactyl. It might be good to know that most trainers are up to three Pokemon now.
