The Shin Megami Tensei Challenge

The Shin Megami Tensei Challenge



Backstory​

In the Pokémon Universe, one evil team was trying to open a portal to another dimension and take over said parallel world, since their plans of conquering theirs failed.
Far, far away, in the Megami Tensei Universe, a group of scientists started experimenting with time and space distortion devices, hoping to eventually "rewind" the world up until the point there were no Demons and there was no destruction.
But, as expected, in both worlds, things went terribly wrong. Somehow, the two dimensions collided in a common point which eventually caused a fusion. It all started as a wave of natural disasters and Pokémon acting strangely in one world and massive waves of demons and chaos in the other. The strange events grew in intensity as the two worlds kept binding and fusing together.
Eventually, after three long years , the fusion came to an end in a dazzling, bright light that caused every single creature to fall asleep and every single device to either break down or fuse with another to create new ones, suitable for what was to be a whole new world.
Ten years after the Pokémon Universe and the Megami Tensei Dimension became one, a young person aged 10 is getting ready for their exciting journey. That young person is you. You are eager to get going and to uncover the secrets and marvels of your world, while also trying to learn more about the past and just how different everything was back then. After obtaining your very first Pokémon and your Pokédex (now called Pokéndium), you step out the door of the PokéLab and into the world.
Just what is it that you will find on your journey?​

Rules​

You may only trade in order to evolve your Pokémon. (Trade evolutions do not abide to the new fusion system).
No hacking/cheating allowed.
Your team must consist of at least three Pokémon.
A new fusion system now exists in the world.
In order to evolve a Pokémon, you must perform a fusion with another Pokémon compatible to the one you're evolving. (When evolving a Pokémon, you must release another Pokémon that has the same type as the one you're evolving. Pokémon with three stages of evolution must undergo fusion twice. If the Pokémon you are trying to evolve is a dual type, you may pick the "compatible type" out of the two.)
Introducing the Inheritance System.
Upon fusion, your new Pokémon inherits one of the sacrificed Pokémon's skills. (The Pokémon you release and the Pokémon you are evolving must have a move in common. You may replace the move later on, as you see fit.)
Pokémon Growth System.
Your Pokémon can only grow stronger from now on, especially after fusion. And so should their moves. (You may only learn moves with a base power/accuracy higher than the one replaced. [Example: You own a Gloom that knows Absorb. Absorb is a move that has a base power of 20 and 100 accuracy. Your gloom levels up and you decide to replace its Absorb. You must replace it with another move that has a higher base power than 20. For example, Mega Drain which has a base power of 40.])
Rebirth? Why not?
Sometimes, you may feel that your Pokémon could use improvement. That's where rebirthing comes in. (You may use Vitamins to boost your Pokémon's stats, but you may only boost those lower than 60).

Alignments! Wait, what?
The fusion of the two dimensions brought over Alignments. On your journey, you will have to choose one of the three alignments as follows:

You may only use Types belonging to the alignment of your choice.
Law types: Fire, Water, Electric, Grass, Psychic, Fairy
Chaos types: Ghost, Dark, Poison, Ice, Fighting, Dragon
