1. Prologue

Breeding

It has become such a dominating industry in the Kalos region ever since the capture of wild Pokemon was banned.

Many citizens and trainers became heated over the new law, but it wasn't long before the breeding industry began to flourish.

Humans could immediately tell the difference between in-captivity bred Pokemon compared to Pokemon caught in the wild.

Pokemon bred to be pets were docile and very obedient, bred to listen to their owners every command while helping to make their owners lives easier.

Pokemon bred to be competitive battlers quickly outranked Pokemon that were captured in the wild. Moves could be passed down from parent Pokemon and their fierce taste for battle made them shine bright.

It was a win-win outcome for everyone. Humans wouldn't disturb native Pokemon by over-capturing. There wouldn't be worry of species vanishing from the region like many had in times before.

But that was only what the breeding companies wanted citizens to believe. No one spoke of the Pokemon that didn't meet the qualifications of Pet or Competitive Battler.

The ones with a weaker will to fight

The ones born with birth defects

The ones that just didn't have the right move pool

Because breeding companies didn't want the citizens to know that they were just released into the wild.

Infants

Pokemon that weren't taught the skills they needed to survive, were thrown into the wilds to fend for themselves.

And very few survived

And that was just an easier...cheaper solution.

Because more often the Pokemon that didn't meet their qualifications were simply put down.

Just because they didn't have what breeders were looking for, because they were deemed worthless.

There are trainers though, trainers that see the potential in every Pokemon no matter the cost.

Trainers that believe every Pokemon can become powerful, that having the right nature; the right moves didn't mean a thing.

Those trainers call themselves Adopters.

And by working hand in hand with the Kalos Pokemon Rescue Program, Adopters take in the Pokemon sitting on death row and give them a second chance at life.

Because every Pokemon deserves a chance to prove themselves.
