Franconian Region Journey Episode 0: Setup

by Iblockya

Iblockya This will be a journey through the Franconian Region (a region based on a reallife area but customized by me). Sorry in advance for spelling and grammar errors since english isn't my primary language, but I will try my best to keep my mistakes at a minimum.
As this is the setup for my work let me introduce you to the region and some important characters.
First let me list up some characters: Shiro, Kuro, Leon, Professor Tann, William, Luna, David.

Shiro is a 16 years old young man with long white hair and yellow eyes. He is very energetic and impulsive, almost hyperactive and impatient. His battlestyle revolves a lot around instinct while strategy comes more than just short for him. Shiro is a rival to Kuro and a student to Leon.

Kuro is 17 years old and a very calm and collected person. He has short black hair and brown eyes. His battlestyle focuses mostly around strategy and outsmarting his opponents. He is a rival to Shiro and he likes to challenge Leon but fails pretty often.

Leon is a 25 year old man with short brown hair and brown eyes who acts as a kind of guide for younger trainers in the region. He is normaly a lazy person but picks up his slack when a worthy challenger appears. His style revolves around fast and strong attacks with Umbreon being the only exception in his team.

Professor Tann is the regional Pokemon Professor tasked with handing the new trainers their starter Pokemon and Pokedex. He is clumsy and chaotic and his field of research are the Fossile-Pokemon that should be extinct but live in Seobustunnel and Victory Road.

William is 29 years old and the Leader of Team Midnight. He has short black hair and red eyes. His true motives behind Team Midnight are unclear but he claims that Pokemon are dangerous and his "main goal" is to get rid of all Pokemon for the sake of humanity. The name of his team is more related to them using Dark Type Pokemon and acting during night only than it is to their plans.

Luna is a 19 year old woman with long red hair and also one of the two admins of Team Midnight. She is rather shy and calm unless she is facing Leon. For some unknown reason she deeply hates Leon but bears interest for Shiro.

David is 20 years old man with short lightbrown hair, brown eyes and glasses. He is the second in command for Team Midnight as one of their admins. Like the rest of the Team he seems to hate Leon for no reason. He is also very intelligent and analytic.

Next up will be the region as a whole aswell as the "starting town", the Mainstream and the Pokemon League.

The region is based on a small area in middle europe, so there is not a lot of water present besides the Mainstream. A lot of the routes consist of grassy areas and small forests. The only forest of the region is the so called Metalforest located in the middle of Route 3. There are three mountain/tunnel based areas being Crossmountain, Seobustunnel and Victory Road as well as the Metaldesert located in the middle of Route 13. The towns and cities are connected to each other via various paths what leads to three cities (Kingstown, Seogrore and Busrough) being connected to five different locations.

The "Starting Town" Fleerosetown lies in the north-west of the region. It's not all that big and only features Professor Tann's Pokelab and is an important connection to other regions cause it's very close to all sorts of travelling methods.

The Mainstream is the only large body of water in the region and is used to connect Wehento City to the Pokemon League via ship but can only be accessed by trainers that passed Victory Road once and have the seal of approval to challenge the Elite 4. It's impossible to surf on a Pokemon there because the current is too strong.

The Pokemon League is located in Nuremburg alongside Victory Road. You can only reach the League part of Nuremburg by completing the unground cave that is Victory Road or using the Elite Ship after clearing Victory Road once. The Elite 4 consists of Michael, Lucie, Arthur and Dennis and its Champion reveals himself only if a worthy challenger beat all four of the Elite 4.

    Just thought I'd give you some advice, your English is great, but with towns and cities and tunnels and stuff, it would be, for example: 'Fleerose Town' or 'Seogrore City'.

    The region is well thought out, too.
