Hey guys! I know, I know, you're waiting for other things. I promise, I'm trying to work on them. But right now, I'm pretty much forced to actively work on this story. But, that at least means I'm trying to write again, after a very LONG break. I'm trying everyone!

Anyway, this is a new story, that I've had in my Ongoing list since I created this profile. This is the prologue, and though it's VERY short, I hope that it gives you a slight clue about what this story will be about, and will keep you interested until I can get the next chapter up, which WILL BE SOON. Believe me, with the way my friend is on my butt for this, it better be, or else none of you will ever be hearing from me ever again.

Enjoy!


Year - 2023

Location - Times Square, Eastern Unova

Pokemon. Creatures that wield fantastic powers. Each one is different, in element, mind, power,and spirit, much like humans. People could capture these mythical creatures and keep them as pets, or treat them as partners in battles. Pokemon and Trainer, side by side, would aim to rise to the top of the world by beating each other trainer that they would encounter. Together, they would rise with the dream of completing their goals with each other.

However, over the past few years, Pokemon have been going missing. Slowly, they have been disappearing from our forests, lakes, and mountains. Trainers were cautioned to keep a close watch on their precious partners. Many kept every Pokemon in their sight at all times, others wouldn't let their Pokemon out at all except for an occasional battle. Some even decided to postpone their journeys until the alleged threat was gone. But even with these precautionaries, eventually, the inevitable happened.

Pokemon eventually became nonexistent.

There were no more wild creatures. The land was wasted, barren without the beasts roaming in their habitats, doing the things that they do to nature to keep it alive. Along with nature, humans were vastly affected too. There were no more trainer battles. Pokemon trainers became nonexistent along with the creatures themselves, and disappeared completely from the streets and lands. Even Red, the most esteemed trainer of all time, vanished from the face of the world.

Now, in a time of experimentation and revival, we, Team Rocket, plan to revitalize the Pokemon race, and bring together a new group to continue our further research. Of course, we cannot do it alone. We must have subjects; volunteers that are willing to come forth and risk their lives for our research. Of course, it won't be easy.. but with proper "persuasion," I'm sure we could get a few to start out with. In the case that it doesn't work, extreme measures will have to be taken… Let the world hope that it won't come to that.

Our hour of glory is at hand. Let the world worship us, and yet fear us. Remember our names, Team Rocket will revive the Pokemon race, and conquer what is left of the world. Remember our names!
