Prologue
Long ago people and pokemon were different. Both existed yet one ruled over the other. With superior intelligence and technology the humans captured pokemon in devices called Poke balls and using them as objects to battle. At the start most thought of pokemon as friends, however as time passed more and more started using them as tools, playthings. Pokemon, being living, breathing beings began to fight against the cruelty of their former masters. A sort of war began between humans and pokemon. Humans created large and walled off cities, only leaving them in large bands of soldiers as escorts and even then it was a dangerous journey. Eventually a cornered rat will fight back and this is true with the humans. As their patience wore thin they began to make raids into the forests and plains where the pokemon lived. Many died as the humans fought to regain dominance. Arceus, from his realm in which he creates new pokemon, seeing his creations being faced with mass genocide used all of his power to physically alter the genetic code of both man and pokemon. With his final breath he declared for all the world to hear: "You have disappointed me. I created you to live in harmony not slaughter each other till neither is left on the planet!" and with a surge of green energy that circled the globe he shouted: "You that hate each other with such a passion, I confine you to live as one for the rest of time!" and as the iridescent light faded from the sky Arceus realized he might have overdone it. The world lay in ruins, the terrain of the entire world was born anew. Scattered across it, all in their respective habitats was a new race, one that would become known as the Gijinka. Humans and pokemon combined. Arceus looked out across what he had done thought that things might not be so bad after all as he fell to the new earth, unconscious. As time marched on and the gijinka learned more and more, civilizations sprang up, order and governments were made. Many wars were fought and peace treaties were made and broken until we came to the system we have now, The League of Legendaries.
