A/N: Welcome to Pokémon Kunishu! This story was originally for a forum called Epic Box and I had plans to put it up on a new forum (since that one got deleted) called Reality Reforged as an exclusive story. However, I haven't uploaded it there and I decided I might as well put it up on here. So, here it is! Anyway, this story will loosely follow the plot of the Pokémon games with elements of the manga (Adventures/Special) and elements mixed in. The Kunishu region is entirely new with every Pokémon from Gen. I to Gen. V (because Gen. V was the newest one at the original time of the writing of this. No, I will not be putting in Gen. VI Pokémon.) Because the region is of my own creation, and because I tend to forget things, I am in the process of making maps for it (on Paint). That's all I feel you should know at this moment, so, here is Pokémon Kunishu!

Prologue
It has been well over 50 years since the incident with Dialga, Palkia and Giratina in the region of Sinnoh. Not much is known about it now, but it is said that a lone hero defeated Cyrus, the leader of the evil organization known as Team Galactic, and calmed the three Legendary Pokémon by battling them. After the hero calmed the Pokémon, Arceus showed itself unto the hero and gave the hero a gift. Nobody knows what the gift was except the hero and his closest friends. Together, they traveled the world in search of rare, undiscovered Pokémon.
Eventually, they came to the region known as Kunishu. Some say they had grown tired of traveling and settled down in the region. Others say that only the hero and two others settled down. Most say that only the hero continued on. However, it cannot be said accurately that nobody had settled in that region.
Kairu Fir, a twelve year old resident of Kunishu, has studied Pokémon from the time he could talk. Under the direct tutelage of his mother, Karren Fir, he has studied and loved Pokémon. His mother, Karren, is also the regional Pokémon Expert. She is known to most others as "Professor Fir".
Kairu is also, unknowingly, a direct descendant of the hero who had calmed the Legendary Pokémon of Time, Space and Dimension and to whom Arceus appeared. Also, unknowingly, it is he who has the Gift of Arceus. A Gift so rare, that even the most sane people will go mad trying to obtain it. Many have been digging for it but none have found it. A Gift so powerful, it can change mankind forever. For this power alone, most want it.
The Legion of Light is no different. About 10 years ago, they were formed for one purpose: To find the Legendary Arceus and receive its Gift. Someone had heard the legends of the hero and believed them to be true. It was this same person who had formed the Legion of Light, believing the Gift to be a power of Light.
Now, Kairu, the twelve year old son of Professor Fir, will begin his Pokémon Journey. The Journey will take him across the region of Kunishu where he will see and meet various Pokémon. It will also be one of hardships and finding what the Gift of Arceus is. Will it be a power to change the world? Only he can find out.
Now, Kairu! Begin your epic quest!
