I have the game idea for the reboot of Pokémon called "Pocket Monsters: Dusk and Dawn"
PROLOGUE
A familiar story - as you've never heard it before. In this game, you have the chance to play in the very beginning era of Pokémon, with lots of unpredictable twists, as it's not just a restart, but a whole reboot of our favourite franchise. Unseen events and the chance to (re)discover the world as you've never seen before. If you're interested in seeing new species, or experience the origin story of the old creatures, then join to this adventure, but remember one thing: you cannot be sure about which will remain the same.
THE STORY
Pocket Monsters. These creatures are lived in harmony for a long time with each other and the humans. There were no war, and the union of both allowed to create an economy which made everything available. There were no poverty, no pollution, nor problems like war. But everything changes, and nothing remains the same.
There are always people who are unsatisfied with their current position and possessions. They always want more than more: not only items, money, but things like power. These kind of people will never be happy, but they want to achieve their goals even if they must burn the world to reach that. An organization, called as Team Rocket, wants power more than anything else: their illegal activities involved in getting everything they want, everything what other people possessed: tools, money, and later even Pokémon. They started to use their own creatures and the stolen ones as weapons, and they won't regret in getting the world into a Worldwide War in order to restructure the system as they imagine that.
From a small group, they quickly spread all over the world, but their most successful regions were Kanto and Johto. Their lies immediately seduced younglings and elders, who gladly joined to Giovanni, the mastermind behind the project, the person who wanted nothing but world domination. His biggest dream was conquering not only our world, but the Moon too, as it is recognizable from the name of its team. He even had experiments landing on their, but their only success was getting some special items from there. Those were really similar to the Evolution Stones we already know, and because of their origin, they were named as Moon Stones.
In order to get what he wants, Giovanni started experiments in creating the Perfect Weapon, a Pokémon which cannot be defeated by anyone else. He thought that these stones will be the key in his experiment, so he tried to evolve any kind of Pokémon he could with them. Even thought some of them were success, like the newly discovered Nidoking and Nidoqueen (who immediately getting involved in his personal team), they were far away from the perfect weapon. It was until he discovered one highly underrated type: the Clefairies...
After finding them, lots of attempts were done in order to examine the effects of the stones on these Pokémon, and they realized that their potential highly improved after getting these stones. A dozen of Clefables - as they called these newly discovered creatures -, were caged and used as a guinea pig in the pity game of these men. They had to fight each other, and even were tortured, in order to break their own limits and levels to become nothing but weapons in the organization's plan. They did it until something horrible happened: one of the Clefables had died.
However, something unexpected happened. Even thought its body died, its soul still remained, and manifested in a new, ghoul body. It was nothing bad a former shadow of itself, living between two worlds. Gengar was born, the first Ghost Pokémon in the world. Even thought the boss was happy to get what he wanted, Gengar thought it differently: it went on a rage and destroyed the whole scientist lab, destroying everything which was a complex before, and leaving nothing but the mountain itself where the hideout was (which was later called as Mt. Moon).
Meanwhile, to counter the expand of Team Rocket, several Professors and professional Pokémon Trainers were unite to stop the crime organization whatever it costs.
Everyone who became 16 years old can give their application to the Official Pokémon League and getting one of their starter Pokémon, and starting their own journey. You're one of those young adults who are starting their own journey. Who will you become? A Breeder? A Researcher? A Trainer? Or do you want to become a Pokémon Master? In these chaotic times, everyone with a pure heart must help each other: even if they routes are different, they will meet soon, as no one can ignore the fight.
THE GAMEPLAY
- Experience a story never seen before, the re-tell of the classic story in a totally new tone and atmosphere
- Huge variety in character creation, development, and your choices have a deep impact in the storyline.
- You are start in Kanto, however, end-game content will allow you to visit the Islands featured in FireRed/LeafGreen, and other places, like Holon from the Trading Card Game.
- Catching a Pokémon has a new way: befriending them. You can find several Pokémon during the storyline, which can be recruited, and even Wild (random) Pokémon can be recruited in this method. You don't have to force them to join you anymore. It can be a mutual agreement.
- Shiny is replaced with two new mechanisms: Alt Color and Delta Species. Alt Color is an alternate colored version of the Pokémon, but everything else is the same. Alt Color Pokémon are a bit more common than shinies, and they have more variations. For example, you can find Zubats in "vanilla" (blue), grey, black, and other colors. Delta Species, however, is caused by a rare mutation, and it also changed the type of the Pokémon. A yellow Charmander is an Alt Color, but a yellow Charmander which has sparks in its tail is a Delta Species.
- A Pokémon has more than one evolution.
- Shadow Pokémon has a huge impact of the storyline, especially Gengar.
DEFINITIONS
- Alternate color: Years ago, Pokémon researchers thought that there is only one main color of a specific Pokémon. Later, they discovered that there are another versions and alterations of a specific Pokémon, and they can be found in different colours. Even thought they are rare, they do not affect the Pokémon in any other way.
- Delta Species, also known as DS, are a special kind of alternate color Pokémon, because their mutation also affected their attributes, even their typing!
- Child, Adolescent, Adult: Referring to Stage Evolution if the Pokémon is not evolved, evolved or fully evolved. Child Pokémon are the young forms of Pokémon without being evolved. They are barely hatched from the egg, or ready to evolve, but still in their basic forms. Adolescents are evolved, but not fully evolved forms, while adults are the fully evolved forms.
- Unique Pokémon: There is only 1 of this Pokémon - or really few.
- Shadow form: Corrupted Pokémon. This is not evolution, however.
- Dark Evolution: when the corruption and the evolution of the Pokémon mixtures, the Pokémon will evolve differently instead of its casual evolution. It can evolve into a totally different Pokémon, or the usual evolution's shadow form.
