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.

Time To Fistfight A Child [Skirmish]

The boy and his Oranguru walked along Route 102, on the lookout for any Rockets or other ne'er-do-wells that dared lurk its beaten paths.

At least, that was what they were supposed to be focusing on that. What they actually did was talk to each other - arguing about something.

"He'd never talk like that," the boy said, "and I've been around him a lot. And so have you!"

The Oranguru's reply was silent - Telepathy at work.

"Yeah, it'd be funny, but we gotta be authentic. Otherwise, it's gonna take people out of the experience!"

Another silent reply.

"Now you're just being petty."

Evidently, they weren't working too well together - but work together they must, the Oranguru watching the area as the two argued.

Uxie was situated nearby, having borrowed an Illusion from Hideo's Zorua. It was disguised as a decently-sized rock, watching what was about to unfold.

This one was being too chatty. He would give his position away at this rate, but perhaps this could serve as a learning experience for him as well.

Because Uxie knew that it was going to draw someone in very soon - but it didn't plan to interfere.

"And what's wrong with bein' petty, huh?"

A woman strides out from the underbrush in front of them, confident grin on her face and a wild look in her eye. Her hands rest on her hip, where two swords clack against one another for the first time, the woman no longer taking care to muffle her footsteps now she'd blown her cover.

"Looks like I lucked out. You're that kid. This'll be easy enough."

She takes no care for theatrics. A flick of both wrists and her swords are in her hand. They shimmer in the light of the sun, relishing the chance to draw blood in broad daylight.

"Not a lotta honor in killin' kids, but a gym leader? Now there's a story!"

She lunges forward straight at the kid, as swift and as short as she could make her every movement, steel blades screaming as they cut through air.

Screaming for the taste of blood.

The sudden, new voice drew the boy's attention, the Oranguru looking over as well. It wasn't someone the Oranguru recognized, as she'd informed him, and she didn't sound all that friendly. A ne'er-do-well, maybe?

The two swords she wielded didn't dissuade him from that conclusion. Nor did her running towards him, her intentions made clear.

As she began to bound her way over towards him, the boy took a second to realize what he should do.

This one lacked the sense of urgency the real one should have. Not ideal in this kind of situation - perhaps he would be better for distracting people.

But the Oranguru was, ironically, quicker on the draw; a glow from her fan illuminating the area around them. A Trick Room surrounded them, giving the boy a chance to act.

"Killing people over that? Talk about petty."

It gave him a chance to take out a Pokeball, giving it a lazy throw - the ball flying off to the side.

"Whoops."

This one also had to work on his one-handed ball-throwing technique.

The Toxic Chain Oricorio that emerged wouldn't have had enough time to rush over and intercept - so the Oranguru Instructed the boy to act first; a glow from her fan would make it seem like the Shadow Sneak came from her, rather than from the boy's own shadow, as it rushed over to intercept the oncoming Rocket.

The shadows shift, and a trained eye catches their movement even if the brain does not register it.

The woman's hand shifts downward just in time, not to defend against the blow, but if anything, to catch it. The edge of her sword pointed at the ground as the attack emerges, Hana is buffeted to the side, letting out a silent curse.

"Hah! And again I ask, what's wrong with bein' petty?"

A wide grin crosses the woman's face.

Her second blade slips from her grasp, falling into the void of her shadow beneath her. A moment later, and it appears from the kid's own, striking out at him directly with a shadow sneak of its own.
