MARCH UPDATE

IT'S A LONG WAIT AT A LONG LIGHT

HELLO, EVERYONE! We're entering our 7th Arc on Hoenn! The setting and timeline will be updated to reflect this. Stay tuned as we explore the year of the dragon (or draconids?), while the site narrative brings Hoenn closer and closer to unparalleled dangers.

SITE SURVEY

BUT IT'S NOT WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR

JCINK OR PROBOARDS? We're currently deliberating upon this potential move to the Jcink platform. Jcink has several tools that allow for automation of staffwork. Of course, it also has the added benefit of more mature content being allowed. Still! Nothing is confirmed. If you have any thoughts or opinions, please let me know!

hoenn is inspired by, but not associated with nintendo's pokemon franchise.

skin is created by pharaoh leap with graphical help from red. we would like to thank leap and meulk for their additional templates (staff temp, custom pc).

next, garden/swarm spawn, ranger raid, black market, pkmn contest post templates were coded by ulla.

teal has created the wild spawn, endeavour list, league card, exhibits. he and spiral also created the gachapon script, while the former created the gachapon template.

loreq has assisted us with many quality of life changes on site involving coding fixes, plugins and more.

lav has coded in UI accessibility features on Hoenn (cogwheel icon on the navigational sidebar).

characters belong to the members who write them, and all posts and templates on site are credited to their respective authors and artists. we claim nothing that is not ours. thank you for stopping by.

SYNOPSIS: the hoenn league has successfully diverted the 99943 meteno meteroid into an alternate universe. consequently, the region has experienced a violent planeshifting, a bombardment of terastal crystals, and now sports various rifts to realms in the ultra wilds. as megalopolan activity begins to rise, trainers who embark in expeditions to these realms uncover secrets behind the condition of the multiverse.
meanwhile, team rocket and the league amass resources to aid in their conflict against each other. the crime syndicate is poised to take more of the region territorially, while the league ponders a direct offense. legendary pokemon roam the region as potential benefactors or ruinous omens, leaving many to ponder how the hoenn region will ultimately be responsible for the end of all worlds.

"Mr. Cross."

Grigori joined him by his side, his arms dangled against the fabric of his robe. Even this land of dreams could not hide him from the prison. Of the irony of it all. At least the toxic chain was absent-- but even that offered no reprieve. Its siren call of a promised, great future where he was free and still friends with June, hung in his mind like dream mist. Even here.

"How..." Are you? Holding up? Is the connection to your monstrous, devilish feline?

"What did you see, in the mask?" He sputtered out instead.

They were both in the same ward. Maybe, just maybe, they all saw the same thing. It was not correct, not at all-- but it was a rope he clung to nonetheless.

'mr. cross.'

[break][break] the familiar voice calls to him, and the cursed tears himself away from his thoughts. the images of PENELOPE LIVY and her passioned patron melt away into mist as his gaze falls upon Grigori Sokolov.

[break][break] "sokolov," he says. "you're here too?"

[break][break] he shouldn't be surprised, not when he'd seen both oscar clayton and priam conrad here too.

[break][break] as the grunt nears, he would see that the calm, nearly easygoing expression that he'd worn while they'd rubbed away at tera crystals for their resplendent captor was no longer there. in it's place was the nearly feverish pain of the waking world, ice crystals tugging at the scars on his skin.

[break][break] "what did i... see?"

[break][break] immediately, he sees the sea of bodies that had been shown to him. the feeling of endless power and strength that he had felt, sworn to him only by the TOXIC CHAINS around his neck.

[break][break] "i saw the corpses of the league," he said. MATIAS SILPH, Greyson Connors, PENELOPE LIVY. all fit to die by his hand. "the war was won."

[break][break] he flexed his hand, watching the ice gather into his palm, remembering the strength of the TOXIC CHAINS around his wrist.

[break][break] the admin glanced back up at him.

[break][break] "what did you see?"

POSTED ON Apr 29, 2024 2:20:16 GMT

Only when he was closer, did Grigori see the icy scars on Jayden’s skin. So… he was back underneath the control of the beast? His question felt all the worse, especially as he explained his vision. With so few words, he cemented himself as a Rocket.

The grunt’s fists balled tighter, his knuckles turned as white as the frost on his boss's skin. “I… I see.”

“I saw the complete opposite. We’d lost.”

Why did he feel alienated, all of a sudden? Like he didn’t belong? He did, though. His bones were restless, and he shifted in place. “Not much, but… it sounded like you’d been e-executed. Hanged. Alongside the rest of the leadership. Except for me.”

“I’m… scared, Mr. Cross. Why would I see that-- why would I be shown that?”

His home was Rocket, even if he had disagreements at the moment. Did not like how quick they were to resort to violence. Some of them at least let the Oinkolonge eat the carrot after they'd been ran around for months.

[break][break] 'it sounded like you’d been e-executed. hanged.'

[break][break] in an instant, the admin advanced, hands aiming to seize the grunt's shoulders.

[break][break] "what do you mean by that? speak clearly, sokolov."

[break][break] his voice cut through the air with the sharpness of diamond knives.

As the grunt was shaken around, Grigori put his hands on Jayden’s arms. He didn’t attempt to remove the man. More like steadied himself against the storm. The tides that suddenly threatened to drown him whole.

“I did, Cross,” he countered. “I said what I saw– was told! Some stranger told me the news, I know little more than that.”

Air was sucked into his lungs, and shoved out of his mouth in a rhythmic, panicked manner. “I don’t. Know.”

“You think I wanted to see that, what to know that? I’m confused, dazed, lost about it– and I need someone. Anyone.”

For what? He couldn’t know. Maybe to tell him it was a lie, that it meant nothing. Or it was everything, and it was some deep-seated secret hidden within his heart. Anything at all, just that it was going to be alright. As he did to others, someone would do to him. Not his fault he stumbled upon one of the arguably worse people to share this vision with.

[break][break] "think, sokolov. think."

[break][break] "what did they say?"

[break][break] it unearths him to his core. this dream of Grigori Sokolov's to his own.

“Some civillian, I-I think,” he struggled to recall their name. It was someone he’d met maybe three times ever, and only hear the name of twice. “A friend of a friend. The people don’t matter, Jayden!”

He was alone, then. The admin was too focused on the reality of the dream to question if the dream was true at all. For him, it was a threat to the future that Jayden oh so desperately wanted. One that Grigori had no stake in. Except the admin thought it so, and thus, he was at odds with him.

A terrifying prospect. An awful one. His fears, his anger only grew. “I need help, advice, and you pester me with details over something we don't even know to be–”

He stopped. Caught himself. the grunt dug his fingers into the admin, against the ice crystals dug into his skin. “Mr. Cross. Did... did you see the magenta chain? In your vision?”
