>>43194025Setting: Bronze Age. Humans on the games continent live in tribes. There are 8 major tribes who each worship their own legendary Pokémon who they revere as a deity. They also mostly only use Pokémon of their deity’s type. There would be a major tribe for these types; fire, water, grass, flying, rock, fighting, ice and dragon. The evil team are foreign invaders who are basically themed as romans expanding their empire. They use steel type (or perhaps for this game change it to bronze type?).
You are from a minor tribe on the continent who has no deity or any type affinity. The game begins on your 13th birthday where you must make a right of passage to be considered an adult. Your trial is to be given a Pokémon and go survive in the wild for 3 days (insert tutorial here for gathering food, finding shelter and taming new pokemon). After you return your village has been invaded by the evil team and been taken as slaves. Your village elder is alive but in a weak condition. He tells you We should go seek shelter with a neighbour minor tribe. They take you in and after some dialogue it’s decided that the tribes have to unite to repel the invaders, but the major tribes all dislike each other and you’re going to have to beat each tribes chieftain in Pokémon battles to convince them of your strength and to trust your plan of unity.
Now the usual story of beating 8 gym leaders while travelling around the continent takes place. After doing this you’ll get a quest to go to the giant mountain in the centre of the island where apparently the deity Pokémon live and pray for some help. After reaching he top you go through some trials and gain the respect of the deities. Now the arch deity (who the tribes thought no longer existed) presents itself to you and tells you you have to battle it to get it’s support. After beating it it will join your team and you can now go fuck up the evil team.
