Story so far: You are Ron, a human turned Tepig. After meeting and befriending an Oshawott, you formed a group and set off on a quest to save Osha's village. The forest to the north, the village's source of food and connection to the wider world, is dying and turning hazardous for unknown reasons. Your only clue is to find the 'King of the Forest,' though exact details on that are scarce. While traveling through the forest, you encountered and befriended an Oddish and a Croagunk and added them to the team.
During your exploration of the forest, you encountered a Nidoking, Kingler, Seaking, Slowking, Slaking, and Kingdra, all claiming to be the King of the Forest and all in possession of strange gear objects that seem to fit into a mechanism in the middle of the forest. Currently, you are exploring a temple in search of more of these gear objects.
