The Sangyo Region [On Hiatus]

The Sangyo Region

Welcome to the Sangyo Region
he region of Sangyo is a relatively new region with a difficult past…
Not too long ago the region was split and at war with itself. West and East Sangyo had both been enraged and each side was ready to destroy the other each holding in their possession hundreds of warheads and millions of soldiers. When all seemed lost the leaders of each side were asked by a mysterious organization to meet in the old capital building of the region on June 13th. But before we get into that lets go over the history of Sangyo.

Before the war...

Back before the split of modern day Sangyo the entire region was under an Absolute Monarchy where King Hotaru held all the power. Hotaru meant to “share” the success of his region with the entire world and prepared to invade the neighboring nations. Several officials on the east side of Sangyo disagreed with him and began meeting in secret.

Months passed but on the 17th of August Hotaru was to officially declare war on the neighboring regions. That day Hotaru died in his sleep. Nothing was ever uncovered about his death but the rumors soon spread that the officials in the east murdered their king.

On the 18th of August the next ruler was to be crowned, but the ceremony would spark the first stages of war. When the time came for her to be crowned Lady Ginchiyo refused and expressed how the crown would always belong to her father…a coward. The audience was shocked as she exclaimed that she, herself would forge herself a crown of gold and transform the puny region her father once thought to be so great to an Empire the world would fear. The officials took this time to speak up, Lord Yansan stormed onto the stage exclaiming how this was not how a leader should act and that the people themselves should contain the power to make the decisions and have a say in government. “While the King filled his belly, his people starved. And now our Queen wishes to further tax us? To use what belongs to the people for her own crown? When will we speak up citizens? When will we have our…” Yansan never finished his speech as Ginchiyo slammed her dagger in his heart. With their leader dead the Eastern Officials left in a hurry including Yansan’s wife, Lady Yukiko. This was the day when the unrest began as people around the country began rioting. The damage was immense and with Lady Yukiko and her wisdom missing the region was thrown into chaos.

On the 1st of September soldiers marched from the capital city through West Sangyo meeting any riot or form of protest with force. East Sangyo never took it as hard. There were few riots but the unrest from the West worried many. Within the following week Lady Yukiko stood in front of the Capital Building announcing that East Sangyo would no longer obey the commands of Lady Ginchiyo. The response was immediate. Thousands of soldiers stormed the Capital building but Lady Yukiko was already gone. With the announcement made the army, the cities, and the region itself was split. Lady Ginchiyo was to represent the West. And East Sangyo elected Lady Yukiko as their leader. The war had begun…


The War

After the events at the Capital Building in September both Lady Ginchiyo and Lady Yukiko ordered weapons to be produced from every factory on their side of the boundary. Thousands of bombs, missiles, and guns were created, for one purpose, to destroy the other side. Lady Ginchiyo used propaganda and intimidation to draft soldiers from every city in West Sangyo.

In East Sangyo Lady Yukiko held press conferences and made public speeches speaking about the hardships that they would face and the many deaths that the war would cause, however she stressed what winning this war might mean. Independence, civil rights, a new government and balance. However there was no draft in East Sangyo, people began signing up and Lady Yukiko’s speeches proved to be an effective incentive to obtain more soldiers. In the end both sides were equally met with warheads and soldiers.

The first battle began at the capital. When the region split into two sides so did the capital. A wall was constructed straight down the middle of the city where neither from each side was allowed to cross. Then in the cold winter days of December, West Sangyo stroke. Six Planes departed from a nearby city on December 17th and set coarse for the Eastern Capital. Five planes dropped bombs on scattered parts of the city wreaking havoc everywhere they went, the sixth plane crashed into the Central Government building. The attack was short and quick but the damage was immense. Thousands of people killed in the wreckage and many more injured. Tensions where high and the East would no longer sit idly by while the West took its citizens lives.

On December 18th “The Andreas” was fired, a nuclear warhead with the power to destroy an entire city. The warhead was planned to hit the western city of Sutong. “The Andreas” hit 53 miles away from the city killing over 50,000 people and injuring over 100,000. One month later West Sangyo sent its orders to the navy, that the fight would be brought to the sea. West Sangyo’s Navy far outnumbered the Easts and for four months decimated its ships and launched countless missiles at its trading ports. East Sangyo needed supplies, funds, and soldiers. They searched out for help offering anything they could. But no region would help in a civil war calling it “A battle of ambitions”. East Sangyo was on its own. After launching two nuclear warheads and ordering countless missile strikes both sides seemed to be at a stalemate.

In mid-may Lady Ginchiyo made her decision. She would end the war swiftly by not only bombing the East and invading its cities….But by using pokemon to fight their way in. The news spread quickly, and many awaited the response of Lady Yukiko, however, before a statement could be released the nations came to an agreement. No region would trade with either side of Sangyo until peace was achieved. Sangyo seemed helpless, millions were lost, materials were scarce and both sides where highly in debt. All seemed lost until June 13th…


June 13th

While the war was raging and both sides seemed to be crumbling from the inside out the leaders of both sides failed to realize a team rallying the citizens for a new order…

On June 13th a two ambassadors entered the East and West sides of Sangyo. They called upon the leaders to meet at the old capital building in the name of peace. Although each leader was reluctant to go the people spoke out, the war was becoming too much and with both sides at a loss of what to do there was no other options. As the leaders approached both accompanied by armed guards a man several guard dressed in odd uniforms met them and ordered they leave their guards outside. With both complying the guards escorted them to the old capital building, a place that hadn’t been used in months. Once at the entrance no guards entered the building saying there was only one person at the top floor who wished to meet both of them as quickly as possible. The two leaders glancing wearily at each other entered the structure not sure what the next hour would hold.

However the meeting was brief, thirty one minutes had passed and both leaders exited the building, together. They announced that the war was over and that Sangyo would be one once again. Questions were asked, but no answers where given. Both Lady Ginchiyo and Lady Yukiko left as quickly as they came. The uniformed men left in helicopters however there was no one else seen exiting the building. Although the events of the day are strange present day people celebrate June 13th as a day that ended suffering and the tale itself was lost to time…


Present Day Sangyo

In the present day, Sangyo is known as an extremely industrialized land.
Religion although tolerated is not encouraged and religious structures are scarce. Many people have grown to accept what happened on the 13th but many East and West Supporters wish to see the region divided again and groups are beginning to sprout up all over the region threatening to split the region apart once again...

“The region is growing into a superpower, industrialized cities have begun sprouting up all over the region, rebuilding of severely damaged cities has begun and the capital is finally rebuilt to its former glory.”

“Technology here is more advanced than ever, many corporations have grown so large as too expand into other regions.”

The overall government of the region is a Constitutional Monarchy where Potentate Koichi resides as a figurehead and the Council of Seven. The council is made up of seven councilmen and women elected by the people collectively.

Towns and Cities

Hajimari Town is a small town located in the south east of Sangyo. The town stayed neutral during the war and was unable to trade with either side during it. Since then many people located here have begun farming, and using wind energy, at an attempt to one day create a "self-sustaining" city.

Yuchester Town is one of the larger towns in Sangyo, the town is known for housing PokéLabs Inc. and The Institute.

Minari City is the third largest City in Sangyo. The city is known to be one of the two first cities to begin the industrialization process. It is home to many factories and businesses and is the go to place for shopping in the region.

Kuzusunai City was built up by Mr. Attace of Attace Animatronics Inc. This former small town was funded by Mr. Attace during the rebuilding of Sangyo. Present day the entire city is modernized with technology from moving sidewalks, to specialized battling arenas. Thanks to Attace Animatronics Inc. the city is now one of the most visited by tourists.

Asakumo City is one of the oldest cities in Sangyo, it was constructed around a large forest now named Seishin Forest, in the honor of the spirits that are rumored to inhabit it. The forest still stands today, however recently walls have been built up around the forest and no one has entered since.

Mizazukai Island is thought to be once part of Sangyo, the island is rumored to have moved due to a Tsunami in the early years of the region. It is thought that the island is home to the pokemon Cresselia and Darkrai and in respect to Cresselia and of fear of Darkrai many people have left the island. Other attempts at industrializing the island were made, only 2 years ago Attace Animatronics Inc. built a factory on the island in hope of establishing a city with many jobs. 3 days after the opening the factory mysteriously blew up. No one was present and there was no fatalities.

Catinna Town: A small town located in the most northern part of Sangyo. The town has been separated from society for many years, with little interaction.

Shihon City is also known as the capital of Sangyo, and the largest city in the region. It was originally destroyed by air strikes during the days of the war it has slowly been rebuilt thanks to the efforts of the council and Potentate. Although the city is rather large it houses no pokemon gym but contains a unique assortment of malls, factories, skyscrapers as well as The Capital Building where all official government business takes place.

Pommingham Town: A rather large town that seems to be making itself into a city. Although it was slower to industrialize the town is home to many of the regions brilliant mines. It also is home to Sopitopa University, one of the top universities in the region.

Homming Town is a small farming town in the north-western part of Sangyo. Although small this town provides most of the organic food for the region.

Inoyama Town is an old fishing town in the western part of the region. Although built on the water the town tends to get very little trading from its ports.

Tule City is the second largest city in the region. It houses the regions power plant complex as well as Solar Power Industries. A relatively new company making an effort to convert the region to clean energy.

Miyakanai City is a rather small city compared to others, it used to be an old mining town when Sangyo was still being built up but has long closed its mines and diverted its focus to technology. It is home to several communication companies as well as Telefone Co.

Cannaby City is a city with a rich history. Long before the war when the region was first settled many settlers built their homes here due to its deep waters surrounding it enough that large ports could be built. With Miyakanai Town so close people could send over anything mined there to other parts of the world. Today Cannaby Town is still the regions main port for importing and exporting goods as well as the go to place for sea transportation.

Really like Violight's pokedex so far ^_^ - Any region with Vulpix in is a region I'd want to visit.

I really like this dex so far, it feels fairly diverse, and it has some great pokemon in it. The story itself seems interesting too.

Important!
The first World Act is on! For those of you that havent checked out the post check it out here.

So we are to create an emblem for our region to represent us in this competition so we can get some cool perks for our region so how can you guys help?
Well firstly i am not exactly a master pixilator in any way so anyone who knows how to do pixel art well it would be a big advantage with your help.
Another way is start making suggestions what do you guys think our emblem should be? What best shows off this region? And posting your opinions will definately help us develope a good popular emblem! If we all work together im sure we can get a good ranking in this contest! For Sangyo!

Other Updates!
Just a couple updates finished the entire pokedex and added some coding hope you guys like it will also be adding some more info on being a gym leader so keep updated.

Also id like some feedback from our first citizens how do you like the region so far? What can i improve? What types of things would you like to see implemented? What sections should be added to the OP? Stuff like that! Thanks for reading!

Magby (intended pun alert) we could have our emblem be two of the Pokemon Lady Ginchiyo and Lady Yukiko had?

Lycanthropy July 26th, 2015 1:10 AM

Let's see, did the old factions have coats of arms or any Pokémon to represent them? The emblem could show both sides.
Otherwise it seems technology is important, so what about industry or a complex device?

The emblem doesn't have to be pixel art, a much larger image can be resized too to 80×80 pixels.

Retro Bug July 26th, 2015 1:32 AM

Yeah, like Lyncanthropy said, it doesn't have to be pixelart. Emblems can be regular images that are resized into the size limit.

With that being said perhaps the emblem could have some historical meaning that relates to present day? Maybe something to do the once divided country now whole again... Or since it's heavily industrialized something that deals with what they use technology-wise.

We could always think of something that you don't have listed and create lore around it as well.

Ah yes thats my fault haha i must of meant that if i were to make the emblem it would be pixel art but if someone can do that we could definately use it!

As for the idea i like it i dont exactly have a coat of arms or pokemon but i think if we had one for each side thatd be cool so ideas for this are definately open and i love the idea!

Yep and we can use a regular image is someone knows how to make them ^^
I thought maybe the emblem could have like a half crack between the center or something and on the top half that was cracked have the "symbols" of each side before and on the half thats not cracked have the present day regions "symbols" or art representing it maybe.

Thats what id like im open to suggestions for that i think a coat of arms for each would definately be cool!

Updates
When we do create the emblem for the region we will also be creating emblems for the past east and west parts of the region. To add to this i have created sections on the history of each which i will begin working on in depth now. Id like to know some other thoughts on this as well while continuing the discussion of creating the regional emblem. So emblems for the east and west what should they look like? Other thoughts on the regional emblem? And any volunteers for creating emblems?

It's not that hard to resize an image, especially if you have Photoshop. Pretty easy.

The way you're thinking about it seems... incredibly complicated, ha. It's an 80x80 image we don't want to squeeze a lot stuff on it otherwise it'll just look messy and overdone. At least to me, maybe other people think something else.

I think the image should be whole (aka not cracked) and be symbolic of both of the regions coming together. The crack (to some) will represent separation and I think it would better to show togetherness through symbols of the west and east together and not a part.

So, we're making three emblems in total? One for West, one for East, and one for the present? Okay, sounds interesting. I don't have any problem adding to the discussion. If it's just resizing an image I think I could do that but if it's more in-depth like pixel art I have no clue how to do that. Once we decide on what exactly we're doing I make sure to note whether or not I can create the emblem.

But of coarse you have to create the image which would be the harder part haha.

Probably but i understand your idea which is why i rather everyone give alittle feedback and we can come up with a design. Im honestly a terrible artist :3 so whatever you guys agree upon will likely be the best emblem for the region :D

Yes 3 in total but the only one that has to be created like right now is the present one for the region in general then after that east and west. Ya i think thats best as soon as we decide what we are doing someone can step forward and help a bit :)

Retro Bug July 29th, 2015 10:48 PM

Oops, sorry for not responding, but do you have any ideas for symbols? We should probably think of something before time runs out.

Yep thats definately the number one objective.

The other idea i had was having the two ladies holding their hands together toward the sky and having some industry behind it possibly?
Or maybe im overthinking it we could also use eevee as it is the prime starter and choose it for the diversity of types as it is quite a diverse region.
Edit: I got a backround and some other art done just gotta put on the finishing touches so should be done by the 1st! Oh and gotta resize it!
Sooo i finished the entire emblem and it came out nice just some outlines on sprites that couldnt be helped so i went to resize it and most sites didnt support it so i tried 3 or 4 and then tried converting it then tried again and somehow the file itself got corrupted when converting so i tried opening it and well it didnt open. So im sorry we wont have an entry most likely and thats my fault cause i didnt save 2 copies hopefully we can participate in the next event and get a better result. :/
Dragon gave me alittle more time and although the new emblem doesnt look the best cause it was rushed and such but atleast we got an entry! Sorry it couldnt look better though guys!

In better news i have been working on a map and cities and other stuff so big updates coming!

I finally finished the Town map! Of coarse they need names so i could use everyones help to brainstorm a couple!

http://i61.*.com/qno0o7.png
Whats your guys' thoughts on the map and its design?

Lycanthropy August 5th, 2015 2:10 AM

Looks good! I wonder though, why goes the route in the northeast over that island? Wouldn't a trade route be easier if it would be straight over the mainland?

As for names, in what style did you want to name them?

Honestly it was just hard for me to make a route in between there but i can connect them while keeping the routes to the island. The routes are there to give the region more water routes since it seems to be lacking in them.

Im unsure so far i have some done and victory road will still be victory road but the pokemon league will be in a city kinda like how it was in Hoenn. Just need some help brainstorming and also any errors people see on the map as ik there are a few that have to be changed.

Oh, don't get me wrong, there's no problem with more sea routes. I think you should keep them this way and think of a reason why the land path isn't accessible, like swampland, a mountain or maybe very dangerous Pokémon living in that area.

If you want more sea routes, there's still the option to connect the two towns in the south by one.

There should be so i think when i brainstorm a story that should be in it or i could just zigzag it either way it shouldnt be left alone and i like the idea of dangerous pokemon and such.

That is a possibility although i gotta think through it cause the point of not having them connected besides at the capital and victory to symbolize how the 2 parts are slowly getting reconstructed and connected so hmm

Do you think the cities should have a theme to the names? And should routes be called route 1..2..3...etc. Or have actual names?

I don't really have a critique because I like almost everything - lol.

But I did thought the map was too simple. Hmmm as for the name of towns... what is the meaning of Sangyo anyway? I mean, why Sangyo? There might be inspirations for the theme of towns... I will think of mine too since my char is a Poison Gym Leader... hmmm... thinkiiiiingggg.

Sangyo is simply industry in Japanese and it also is very unique as well. Its the best i could come up with but i did brainstorm with several others and it was either Ateria, Chronoh, and Sangyo and Sangyo won so thats what was decided and its better than Violight.

Yes we also have to discuss the order of towns like where you start and such if anyone hasnt noticed its designed to have victory road, the pkmn league, and the capital city in the middle which if you cut down forms the old two sides of the region east and west. So we have to discuss where the player would start, what town next then that town then all the way to the pkmn league. Another thing to discuss is route names do we want number or actual names like Scenic Way or something along those lines but for now lets just get the city names in order :)

Question for everyone~
What would be a cool way to reward people that are active in events and such? I plan on doing some events and competitions as well as reward people for being active in the region so i would like to know your guy's thoughts on a point system i mean i can obviously reward points but what could people get with these points? :D

I think the only best way to reward is giving them emblem Point system would be surely fit with emblem as rewarding a certain person when he/she reach at a particular point which appreciate them to help more! :D Btw do you get any emblem makers?

Well thats the problem only mods can award emblems and many people dont exactly get all that excited over emblems anymore anyways but i still gotta think on the concept of rewarding for now im going to finish up the history's of the two old sides of the region and slowly get to work with naming cities and towns ive only started some and waiting for any other resonses on some cool names or perhaps a theme for the town names. Also im still putting the final touches on the css in the op so hopefully that will look better with time.

News!
The Before the war... section has finally been updated and has the story of how the war began and some character background. You can find it in the op or read it here:
Spoiler:
Back before the split of modern day Sangyo the entire region was under an Absolute Monarchy where King Hotaru held all the power. Hotaru meant to “share” the success of his region with the entire world and prepared to invade the neighboring nations. Several officials on the east side of Sangyo disagreed with him and began meeting in secret. Months passed but on the 17th of August Hotaru was to officially declare war on the neighboring regions. That day Hotaru died in his sleep. Nothing was ever uncovered about his death but the rumors soon spread that the officials in the east murdered their king. On the 18th of August the next ruler was to be crowned, but the ceremony would spark the first stages of war. When the time came for her to be crowned Lady Ginchiyo refused and expressed how the crown would always belong to her father…a coward. The audience was shocked as she exclaimed that she, herself would forge herself a crown of gold and transform the puny region her father once thought to be so great to an Empire the world would fear. The officials took this time to speak up, Lord Yansan stormed onto the stage exclaiming how this was not how a leader should act and that the people themselves should contain the power to make the decisions and have a say in government. “While the King filled his belly, his people starved. And now our Queen wishes to further tax us? To use what belongs to the people for her own crown? When will we speak up citizens? When will we have our…” Yansan never finished his speech as Ginchiyo slammed her dagger in his heart. With their leader dead the Eastern Officials left in a hurry including Yansan’s wife, Lady Yukiko. This was the day when the unrest began as people around the country began rioting. The damage was immense and with Lady Yukiko and her wisdom missing the region was thrown into chaos. On the 1st of September soldiers marched from the capital city through West Sangyo meeting any riot or form of protest with force. East Sangyo never took it as hard. There were few riots but the unrest from the West worried many. Within the following week Lady Yukiko stood in front of the Capital Building announcing that East Sangyo would no longer obey the commands of Lady Ginchiyo. The response was immediate. Thousands of soldiers stormed the Capital building but Lady Yukiko was already gone. With the announcement made the army, the cities, and the region itself was split. Lady Ginchiyo was to represent the West. And East Sangyo elected Lady Yukiko as their leader. The war had begun…

Just need help with the names and town order oh and critiquing the story would be nice cause i didnt exactly proofread it and wrote it quicker than my other stories.

Edit:i actually rewrote well everything and i also wrote up two new sections must be feeling inspired today haha so check it out and let me know what you guys think.

Welcome to the Sangyo Region
Spoiler:
The region of Sangyo is a relatively new region with a difficult past…
Not too long ago the region was split and at war with itself. West and East Sangyo had both been enraged and each side was ready to destroy the other each holding in their possession hundreds of warheads and millions of soldiers. When all seemed lost the leaders of each side were asked by a mysterious organization to meet in the old capital building of the region on June 13th. But before we get into that lets go over the history of Sangyo.


Before the war…(Revised)
Spoiler:
Back before the split of modern day Sangyo the entire region was under an Absolute Monarchy where King Hotaru held all the power. Hotaru meant to “share” the success of his region with the entire world and prepared to invade the neighboring nations.

Thousands of soldiers stormed the Capital building but Lady Yukiko was already gone. With the announcement made the army, the cities, and the region itself was split. Lady Ginchiyo was to represent the West. And East Sangyo elected Lady Yukiko as their leader. The war had begun...


The War…
Spoiler:
After the events at the Capital Building in September both Lady Ginchiyo and Lady Yukiko ordered weapons to be produced from every factory on their side of the boundary. Thousands of bombs, missiles, and guns were created, for one purpose, to destroy the other side. Lady Ginchiyo used propaganda and intimidation to draft soldiers from every city in West Sangyo. In East Sangyo Lady Yukiko held press conferences and made public speeches speaking about the hardships that they would face and the many deaths that the war would cause, however she stressed what winning this war might mean. Independence, civil rights, a new government and balance. However there was no draft in East Sangyo, people began signing up and Lady Yukiko’s speeches proved to be an effective incentive to obtain more soldiers. In the end both sides were equally met with warheads and soldiers. The first battle began at the capital. When the region split into two sides so did the capital. A wall was constructed straight down the middle of the city where neither from each side was allowed to cross. Then in the cold winter days of December, West Sangyo stroke. Six Planes departed from a nearby city on December 17th and set coarse for the Eastern Capital. Five planes dropped bombs on scattered parts of the city wreaking havoc everywhere they went, the sixth plane crashed into the Central Government building. The attack was short and quick but the damage was immense. Thousands of people killed in the wreckage and many more injured. Tensions where high and the East would no longer sit idly by while the West took its citizens lives. On December 18th “The Andreas” was fired, a nuclear warhead with the power to destroy an entire city. The warhead was planned to hit the western city of Sutong. “The Andreas” hit 53 miles away from the city killing over 50,000 people and injuring over 100,000. One month later West Sangyo sent its orders to the navy, that the fight would be brought to the sea. West Sangyo’s Navy far outnumbered the Easts and for four months decimated its ships and launched countless missiles at its trading ports. East Sangyo needed supplies, funds, and soldiers. They searched out for help offering anything they could. But no region would help in a civil war calling it “A battle of ambitions”. East Sangyo was on its own. After launching two nuclear warheads and ordering countless missile strikes both sides seemed to be at a stalemate. In mid-may Lady Ginchiyo made her decision. She would end the war swiftly by not only bombing the East and invading its cities….But by using pokemon to fight their way in. The news spread quickly, and many awaited the response of Lady Yukiko, however, before a statement could be released the nations came to an agreement. No region would trade with either side of Sangyo until peace was achieved. Sangyo seemed helpless, millions were lost, materials were scarce and both sides where highly in debt. All seemed lost until June 13th…


June 13th
Spoiler:
While the war was raging and both sides seemed to be crumbling from the inside out the leaders of both sides failed to realize a team rallying the citizens for a new order… On June 13th a two ambassadors entered the East and West sides of Sangyo. They called upon the leaders to meet at the old capital building in the name of peace. Although each leader was reluctant to go the people spoke out, the war was becoming too much and with both sides at a loss of what to do there was no other options. As the leaders approached both accompanied by armed guards a man several guard dressed in odd uniforms met them and ordered they leave their guards outside. With both complying the guards escorted them to the old capital building, a place that hadn’t been used in months. Once at the entrance no guards entered the building saying there was only one person at the top floor who wished to meet both of them as quickly as possible. The two leaders glancing wearily at each other entered the structure not sure what the next hour would hold. However the meeting was brief, thirty one minutes had passed and both leaders exited the building, together. They announced that the war was over and that Sangyo would be one once again. Questions were asked, but no answers where given. Both Lady Ginchiyo and Lady Yukiko left as quickly as they came. The uniformed men left in helicopters however there was no one else seen exiting the building. Although the events of the day are strange present day people celebrate June 13th as a day that ended suffering and the tale itself was lost to time…


Present Day Sangyo
Spoiler:
In the present day, Sangyo is known as an extremely industrialized land.
Religion although tolerated is not encouraged and religious structures are scarce. Many people have grown to accept what happened on the 13th but many East and West Supporters wish to see the region divided again and groups are beginning to sprout up all over the region threatening to split the region apart once again...
“The region is growing into a superpower, industrialized cities have begun sprouting up all over the region, rebuilding of severely damaged cities has begun and the capital is finally rebuilt to its former glory.”
“Technology here is more advanced than ever, many corporations have grown so large as too expand into other regions.”
The overall government of the region is a Constitutional Monarchy where Potentate Koichi resides as a figurehead and the Council of Seven. The council is made up of seven councilmen and women elected by the people collectively.

Will update the op soon in the meantime could use any advice you guys have .

I think you should make it paragraphs and not stick it in one.

I'm confused reading it since it's cluttered, giving spaces to clean it up would be nice.

The City Naming Event
As the Sangyo Region really begins to form i could use some help with naming the cities and towns on the map. If you havent viewed the map yet or your new in can be found in the original post. As of current we have 12 towns that need names, a name for the island and possibly a better name for victory road and the pokemon league. The only city that currently has a name is the capital city or by its formal name Shuto City. Below is a list of possible names for towns and cities but you can also make your own up or mention which ones you like best.

As we discuss the possible names it would be best to also mention what town the player would start in and what cities they will go to from there as well as what locations are cities and which are to be towns. After all of this is done Route names will be given so start thinking creatively and we can finish this map together!

Possible City/Town Names

Kuzusunai
Miyakanai
Asakumo
Xutong
Amuro
Kuzuu
Inoyama
Watari
Fuitō
Otto
Amau
Sabushiro

I didnt even see Catinna i really like that one :D
So we have:
Pommingham, Cannaby, Tule, Felsebourgh, Catinna, Homming, Yuchester, Kuzusunai, Miyakanai, Asakumo, Inoyama, Fuitō, Minari, Yōkamachi...14 so ill take 2 out. Felsebourgh because it doesnt have much meaning and its hard to say and Fuito because its also hard to say and its the least unique of the other ones. Now Step 2 and 3.



The City Naming Event
Part 2.0

So currently we have our 12 town names Pommingham, Cannaby, Tule, Catinna, Homming, Yuchester, Kuzusunai, Miyakanai, Asakumo, Inoyama, Minari, and Yōkamachi. The last locations on the map that need to be named are the island, a possible different name for Victory Road and a name for the Pokemon League since in Sangyo it is located in a busy city similar to the idea of Evergrande City but with actual people, places, homes, hotels etc.


Island Names
Tsuki (Moon in Japanese)
Shinsei (Rebirth in Japanese)
Luna
Lonlei
Regala


Pokemon League, City Names
Erīto
Rīgu
Pawā
Hōfuna
Saikai (begin again in japanese)

New Name for Victory Road?




The City Naming Event
Part 3.0

http://i.imgur.com/gISXcX4.png


Now is the time, once you have weighed in on part 2 lets begin discussing what parts of the maps are cities and what parts are towns. Every City must be named the only ones that are named are the capital city (large sideways pokeball) and the pokemon league city (under the capital city tb named after part 2). From here i believe we can start normal weekly scenarios but im getting ahead of myself but if you wanna know we have a point system coming that will focus on your individual character and how worthy you are and how evil/good you are. Thats right you could end up being the best of the best or the meanest villain.


BlueDogXL August 25th, 2015 6:57 PM

The name for victory road should be whatever 'challenge path' is in japanese.
Hurhurhur so clever hurhurhur

挑戦の道: Chousen no Michi

I dunno, Pilgrimage Path, Trainer's Folly, Stairway to Heaven. Something like that.

BlueDogXL August 27th, 2015 6:23 PM

Then...
Chouseno Michi!
(and cleverness strikes again! ;P)

Awan2407 August 28th, 2015 2:11 AM

I don't know why but Shori Pasu (roughly translation of Victorious Path) comes in my mind.

What about Shori Pass? Thats actually a really good one i like that alot translates to victorious path and isnt too confusing.

Thanks guys keep the ideas coming these are great! Any ideas for the island name or do any of you like the ones i suggested?

Awan2407 August 28th, 2015 6:16 AM

Whatever floats your boat~ Also the island names are good c: But maybe change Luna to something else since it kinda has the same meaning of Tsuki which is Moon but in different language.

Yes Luna is moon in Latin while Tsuki is moon in Japanese thats what i was thinking kinda moon island since its shaped like a moon or something else perhaps.

The only things left to discuss then would be names for the pokemon league city which i suggested a few and the town order as well as which cities are towns and which are cities.

Another possibility: Mizazuki (三日月) which means "crescent moon".

And whatever you name the island, the cities/towns around it should have the same style of names. So like if you go with Tsuki Island then the nearby towns should be given the Japanese-inspired names like Kuzusunai (this almost says "won't destroy"), Miyakanai (which loosely transliterated could mean something like "inside the palace home"), Asakumo ("morning clouds" or maybe "morning spiders"), Inoyama (which kind of looks like "wild boar mountain"), etc.

Dedenne1 September 1st, 2015 7:43 PM

Map Locations Are Complete!


















































So i labeled all the Cities and Towns as well as other notable locations. Let me know what you guys think and if any changes need to be made. Thanks to Sopheria for giving me some of the codes!

The Response

Potentate Koichi sat in his office looking over the papers for the rebuilding of the capital. The plan would not only rebuild the capital to its once former glory but include an expansion of the city itself. Before he could make his choice on how to go forward with the proposed plan his secretary rushed through the doors. "What is the meaning of this? I thought i made it clear i was not to be disturbed," he said. "Sir, i think you might want to have a look at this".

"So Yōko has been attacked? And by wild Pokemon no less?" he said. "Wild Pokemon do not organize themselves Julie, they have to be under the control of something even more powerful," he continued. "Sir? What will we do? The queen seems to be in need of our help," she said. "And what does she expect us to do? Send our best trainers and armies to wipe out wild Pokemon? I hardly see the threat. How many could there be? 100? 200? Does Yōko not have their own armies?" he said. "Mr. President, no matter what the conditions what if we were to not send help? How would Sangyo look? We are currently highly regarded among the other regions, I do not believe that it would be wise to raise tensions while we are in the middle of, rebuilding," she said.

He pondered this for several moments before answering. "Have you brought this to the council members? Or any of the officials?" he asked. "Not yet sir," she said. Potentate Koichi stood up and threw the letter into the paper shredder. Julie gasped, "Sir, what have you done?" she said. "I will sleep on this, but i want no word of this delivered to any of the other council members, is that understood?" he asked. "Uuuu-understood sir," she stuttered, then quickly took her leave.

The following day Potentate Koichi heard a small knock at the door before Julie entered. "Have you thought about what i said sir?" she asked. "Yes i have, and i have come to a decision," he said. "Sangyo will provide 50 of its best trainers to defend what is left of Yōko, in the spirit of preserving Sangyo's ties to the other regions," he continued. "Only 50?" she asked. "The rest will have to stay here you may inform the council of the current situation. I believe this is Mewtwo's work, and I will not allow him to infiltrate Sanyo as he has done to Yōko. I want a border patrol set up by the end of the day, we need scouts in all watchtowers, and until this situation is resolved...we will put the region on lock-down," he said. "Lock-down sir?" she asked. "Yes until sufficient information is brought forward that this situation is no threat to Sangyo, and that no one person or group is controlling this, we will be in lock-down mode. No one comes in, and no one goes out," he said. "Well get to it," he commanded. "Of coarse...sir," she said, and slowly left the office with a look of pain stretched on her face. Koichi looked out the window at the city below, and smiled. "No one comes in and no one goes out," he repeated...




Location Descriptions are Here!

Hajimari Town is a small town located in the south east of Sangyo. The town stayed neutral during the war and was unable to trade with either side during it. Since then many people located here have begun farming, and using wind energy, at an attempt to one day create a "self-sustaining" city.

Yuchester Town is one of the larger towns in Sangyo, the town is known for housing PokéLabs Inc. and The Institute.

Minari City is the third largest City in Sangyo. The city is known to be one of the two first cities to begin the industrialization process. It is home to many factories and businesses and is the go to place for shopping in the region.

Kuzusunai City was built up by Mr. Attace of Attace Animatronics Inc. This former small town was funded by Mr. Attace during the rebuilding of Sangyo. Present day the entire city is modernized with technology from moving sidewalks, to specialized battling arenas. Thanks to Attace Animatronics Inc. the city is now one of the most visited by tourists.

Asakumo City is one of the oldest cities in Sangyo, it was constructed around a large forest now named Seishin Forest, in the honor of the spirits that are rumored to inhabit it. The forest still stands today, however recently walls have been built up around the forest and no one has entered since.

Mizazukai Island is thought to be once part of Sangyo, the island is rumored to have moved due to a Tsunami in the early years of the region. It is thought that the island is home to the pokemon Cresselia and Darkrai and in respect to Cresselia and of fear of Darkrai many people have left the island. Other attempts at industrializing the island were made, only 2 years ago Attace Animatronics Inc. built a factory on the island in hope of establishing a city with many jobs. 3 days after the opening the factory mysteriously blew up. No one was present and there was no fatalities.

Catinna Town: A small town located in the most northern part of Sangyo. The town has been separated from society for many years, with little interaction.

Shihon City is also known as the capital of Sangyo, and the largest city in the region. It was originally destroyed by air strikes during the days of the war it has slowly been rebuilt thanks to the efforts of the council and Potentate. Although the city is rather large it houses no pokemon gym but contains a unique assortment of malls, factories, skyscrapers as well as The Capital Building where all official government business takes place.

Pommingham Town: A rather large town that seems to be making itself into a city. Although it was slower to industrialize the town is home to many of the regions brilliant minds. It also is home to Sopitopa University, one of the top universities in the region.

Homming Town is a small farming town in the north-western part of Sangyo. Although small this town provides most of the organic food for the region.

Inoyama Town is an old fishing town in the western part of the region. Although built on the water the town tends to get very little trading from its ports.

Tule City is the second largest city in the region. It houses the regions power plant complex as well as SoloSolar Co. A relatively new company making an effort to convert the region to clean energy.

Miyakanai City is a rather small city compared to others, it used to be an old mining town when Sangyo was still being built up but has long closed its mines and diverted its focus to technology. It is home to several communication companies as well as Telefone Co.

Cannaby City is a city with a rich history. Long before the war when the region was first settled many settlers built their homes here due to its deep waters surrounding it enough that large ports could be built. With Miyakanai Town so close people could send over anything mined there to other parts of the world. Today Cannaby Town is still the regions main port for importing and exporting goods as well as the go to place for sea transportation.

Its done!

Corporations of Sangyo


During the beginning days of the war Attace Animatronics sprouted up out of nowhere. Mr. Attace a former lawyer of high esteem built up his company in Kuzusunai Town where many people were in need of jobs to support the war effort. By the end of the war Kuzusanai Town was reduced to nothing with air strikes destroying Attaces factory and company building. But at the end of the war it was rebuilt and along with it the city itself. The company is credited with building the entire town from scratch which is mostly true with little intervention from the government.

Attace Animatronics has since then industrialized the city with 3 of its factories as well as 2 corporate building. But since the end of the war the company has built over 6 factories regionwide. The company itself distributes various forms of technology mainly dealing with robotic home cleaners, tablets, household tools etc. While the history of the company was lost to the war it built itself back up bigger and better than before. Today there is no house in Sangyo untouched by Attace Animatronics.



SoloSolar was originally created at the end of the war during the time of the rebuilding. Mrs. Fukui the Founder and current head of the company says that "when the power plant was struck by a rogue missile many people where left without power. I would have been without power as well had i not invested my money in solar panels to power my house." So when the region became united she sought out to build up a new company. With the region left on power reserves it was up to Mrs. Fukui to build up her own power plant and quickly. While many people began construction on the old power plant Mrs. Fukui invested all her money in solar panels buying out much of the land around the power plant to house thousands of them. With all her funds she eventually had a brand new "clean" power plant built before the old one was even repaired. The new power plant allowed more electricity to be used throughout the region while the old one was in the midst of repairs. 2 months passed and the old plant was completed but only a week or so went by before SoloSolar bought out the plant and converted it to its cleaner energy. Since then the company has taken great strides to fund Project Kurīn; a goal of the region and SoloSolar to have the entire region powered by solar energy. Thanks to the efforts of SoloSolar the construction of two nuclear plants west of Homming Town have been halted and the amount of fossil fume emissions released into the air by the region has been more than halved.
