The Story of Xi Arco​

"It is no secret. The world of Pokémon is a giant one, consisting of multiple universes, with each story telling their own. Despite their uniqueness, some events are bound to happen, again and again. This endless loop may vary in some events, but the end result is always the same. There is no way of changing your fate, it is written in stone. Your destiny lies elsewhere, in the cold harsh mountain of Silver. Only then will the truth be finally revealed."
- Chairsperson Ema

Xi Arco takes place in the Xi Universe, also known as the "Amalgamate." Specifically speaking, the story begins in the Kanto region, ten years after the creation of Mewtwo and the death of the Rocket Gang's leader, Salvador, in the hands of a few Pallet Town residents. Now in the present, the newly reformed Rocket Gang known as Team Rocket has corrupted the region enough that Rocket Grunts freely walk through cities, harassing innocent people. The police force try their best, but they too fear the ever so growing Team Rocket. The mysterious new leader of said team is yet to be revealed to the public, unknown to most. Even though some rumors suggest that a few Kantonians know who this new ruthless leader is...
Despite all of this, Starter Day(the day 13 year olds can receive their very first Pokémon) is still around. Many have protested to cancel such a holiday, but some believe that they cannot give in to Team Rocket's threat... Some see it as a death sentence to the children, some see it as a way to oppose Team Rocket. Whatever may be the case, a new generation of heroes will be born. Now that you have finally turned 13, it is time to set off and explore the Kanto region in order to collect 8 Gym Badges, which is proof to the Indigo Plateau that you are capable enough to face the Pokémon League. Raised by a single mother, it is time to put your skills to the test, and see if you have what it takes to be the best in Kanto! Be careful though, Kanto may be a beautiful place to linger about, but the more you stare, the more you discover its blood stained history...

As you travel, you will meet some old and new faces!​

Blue Oak​

Your ex-best friend turned rival, Blue, who has dedicated himself to beat you at everything. Like Kanto, his past is a dark one, ready to resurface in the most unsettling of ways.


Kenny
A good friend of yours back in Trainer School, Kenny is an intelligent boy who is trying to find his place in the world. He has a lot of self doubt, but he believes he can catch up to you in terms of strength and courage one day.


Red/Leaf
The next door neighbor, Red/Leaf was also a good friend back in Trainer School, and always pushed you to be the best. Now that it's time to journey across the region, Red/Leaf will give it their all to best you!
​

Yellow​

A shy girl who lives on a treehouse in Viridian Forest, Yellow has been your friend for the longest, and she admires you greatly. Even though she's small, she holds a great power within her.


Satoshi
Clumsy but with a good heart, Satoshi wants to be the greatest there ever was. However, a faithful encounter with a strange Pokémon may lead him down a different path.
​

Sid​

The big happy guy known as Sid just moved from Littleroot Town to Kanto, so he has a lot of things to learn about the region. Known to not carry a filter, Sid travels with Kenny in order to become a better person.
​

Lacy​

Some people are vengeful in nature, and the same can be said about Lacy from Nuvema Town. A girl who always gets what she wants, Lacy will go through great lengths to make sure she succeeds.

"Each of you have a role to play in this conflict. The Distorted One will arrive, and this reality as we know it will seize to exist. Only you can stop it now. Only you can save the universe. Don't let it destroy another one."​

The Kanto Gym Leaders!​

In order to get to the Pokemon League, one must go through many different challenges. Mandatory battles for Trainers interested in entering the Indigo Plateau, must undergo the Gym Battles and face the powerful Gym Leaders! Do you have what it takes to take them on?

Pewter City's Gym Leader: Brock!
Raised by a single mother when his father abandoned them, Brock was forced to grow and mature at a much younger age. Taking care of his family is his priority, despite his dream to travel the world. Battling a Gym Leader isn't easy, especially when you face-off against Brock's Rock Type Pokemon!


Cerulean City's Gym Leader: Misty!
A tomboyish girl from Cerulean, Misty took on the role as Gym Leader after her father disappeared on an expedition to find a lost underwater city. She hopes to live up to her father's legacy, despite the constant taunts of her sister Violet. Try not to get too wet when fighting her.


Vermilion City's Gym Leader: Lt. Surge!
Lt. Surge has lived a very rough live, and it's all weighed down on him. A very brutal Gym Leader with a short temper, he even had to send his godsons, Kenny and Aiden, away to live in Pallet Town. Can you survive his Electric Types?


Celadon City's Gym Leader: Erika!
The beautiful Gym Leader Erika is a busy woman despite being narcoleptic. She's always traveling around between Johto as she runs a school, a beauty shop, and a kimono dance theater. Her Grass Types are a true representation of nature's wrath!


Fuchsia City's Gym Leader: Koga!
Everyone knows Koga runs a secret ninja training center, but few know his true intentions. His fierce and violent behavior is a reflection of losing his older daughter to the treacherous Team Rocket. His anger is let out by demolishing his opponents with his Poison Type Pokemon.


Saffron City's Gym Leader: Sabrina!
The most powerful psychic in Kanto is actually the most youngest. Sabrina has immense power that she cannot control at times, but she tries her best to not harm those around her again. How can you win someone who knows your every move?


Cinnabar Island's Gym Leader: Blaine!
"A scientist, a playboy, a man with a burning heart" are all comments that Blaine has received through his lifetime. Behind all that, Blaine is a broken man; haunted by his failures and his unfortunate accident ten years ago in the Pokemon Mansion... Now Blaine fights in the Gym to forget it all...


Viridian City's Gym Leader: Giovanni!
Not much is known about the Gym Leader that shows his face and rarely fights in his own Gym. He has only been beaten a few times, and he is known to show no mercy to any Trainer brave enough to fight him... Filled with secrets, Giovanni is a deadly force that doesn't show any signs of stopping soon.


???????!!
There is a terrible evil running among the world of Pokemon... Only The EIA can stop it...

Invite expired re-up?

Hey there! Unfortunately the discord was vandalized and therefore deleted. We will not have a new Discord set up any time soon, we are working on trying to get everything back together! This message will also serve as a way to tell people that our discord is no longer available. Thank you for showing interest, and sorry for the late reply!

 

[Sirius Black]

I've got to say, this looks really cool! This game shows a lot of promise artistically, if you can pair this type of art with even better in-game graphics, some really excellent scripting, and some polish, you'll have quite an amazing game. I look forward to it! :)

Get Ready to Face Team Rocket!​

Team Rocket is no laughing matter! Part of a larger world wide criminal organization known as the Plasma Syndicate, Team Rocket are not to be messed with. They control most of Kanto, and permanently silence those who dare oppose them.​

Team Rocket Executive: Ariana​

"This organization requires precise. Frankly, darling, you are imperfect."​

Ariana is probably the most mysterious out of all the Rocket Members. The only person who seems to know her is Giovanni, her husband. She has proven her loyalty countless of times, but even those who work with Ariana notice that something is terribly off with her...





Team Rocket Executive: Archer

"The secrets of Mega Evolution will be mine soon enough!"

Archer's life was a devastating one; abandoned by his own parents and raised in his cousin's James household, it was only a matter of time before Archer joined Team Rocket and climbed the ranks. He is smart and cunning, and has a secret plan for the future of Team Rocket. A future without Giovanni in it.






Team Rocket Executive: Domino

"Betrayal is my middle name!"

Some say most are two faced, Domino on one hand loves to show it off. Once a member of the International Police, Domino was secretly feeding information to Team Rocket until eventually she was caught. Now she lures those who could be of an interest to their cause... And are never heard of again.






Team Rocket Executive: Viper

"You've seen nothin' yet kid!"

Viper has done many evil deeds in his lifetime; all in the name of Team Rocket. He's not afraid to get his hands dirty, very dirty. Secrets lie deep within him, and some could say that Viper's history is more intertwined with others than they could ever possibly imagine...






Team Rocket Grunt: Tyson

"You should've listened when you had the chance."

Like Domino, Tyson was also a part of some law enforcement, specifically the Cerulean City Police Department. Dubbed as a "hero fallen from grace," Tyson has disappointed the Kanto region with his affiliation with Team Rocket. There's always more to the story is an understatement for Tyson...






Team Rocket Grunt: Jessie

"Prepare for trouble, twerp!"

The laughing stock of Team Rocket, Jessie is only in there to live up to the legacy of her deceased mother, who was killed in the hands of Officer Jenny. She's always trying to prove herself worthy to the Team, but that may be difficult when Giovanni himself ordered her to go after a... Pikachu... Go figure.






Team Rocket Grunt: James

"Better make that double!"

All James ever wanted was to be left alone and live his own life, but his parents were controlling, they were giant contributors to Team Rocket, and they even favored his cousin Archer more as a son than anything. Becoming what he's always hated, James is now a Grunt, on a mission to get some Pikachu.






Team Rocket Grunt: Meowth

"Let me cut ya ear to ear!"

Saved by Giovanni during the Cinnabar Island Incident, Meowth has then pledged loyalty to Team Rocket. Even though he is a Pokémon, Meowth has proven himself a valuable asset. Recently put aside, and his respect fading, he has no choice but to join Jessie and James... To get a specific Pikachu.
​

To Be Continued... Stay tuned for more of Xi Arco!​

 

[Master Vishu]

I want to be writer and sprite artist. Can I join?

 

[KevsterMister98]

Something's not right with the stars...

Hello everyone, long time no see! I have a few updates for the game(yes it's still in development, but things are kicking off faster than before!) Xi Arco is back! We finally have a title screen for the game! Here it is!



As you can see, there's a mysterious Pokemon present on the title... Be weary of it... And speaking of Pokemon, here's a fakemon that you can catch in the wild!

CHIRUS: THE DOCTOR POKEMON​

This curious little creature is Chirus, a Poison/Flying type! This species of Pokemon actually migrated to the Kanto region from an unknown place in the PokeWorld. It pretends to help injured Pokemon until it could lure it somewhere alone to feast upon its unlucky victim. Yikes!

BEARUTHEIA: THE POKEMON OF TRUTH



This next Pokemon is a Legendary Pokemon known as Bearutheia: The Pokemon of Truth. Not much is known about this Pokemon, however many believe that it resides somewhere in the Orange Islands... Waiting to be found. It is said that looking into both eyes will overwhelm anyone with knowledge and truth until they are driven mad...

That's all for now! We will be updating every month on our progress! And we are still looking for anyone interested in joining the team! Feel free to message me directly so we can discuss the details there, but until then, be safe and see ya next time!​

 

[BiggusWeeabus]

This has been in the works for quite long, i know it'll be a great Remake as Pokémon Dark Violet was, maybe even better
