The Human Legendary
In the Pokémon world, there are legends about how, in the past, humans and Pokémon weren’t so different from each other. It is an interesting statement found in an out of the way bookshelf in the fourth generation of games that the community often brought up equally in serious lore threads as well as in memes and jokes.
For some reason, that idea entered Alden’s mind while he downloaded a new emulator that his friend sent to him in a Discord direct message onto his phone. The message promised a smooth and convenient game experience unlike any emulator that came before it. Since it was the weekend, Alden decided to try the emulator along with the Emerald Romhack his friend sent in tandem.
When Alden finally booted up the emulator, it loaded the Emerald Romhack along with the message, “Are you ready to begin your adventure in the world of Pokémon?”
Of course, he clicked yes.
And then found himself standing in the middle of a quaint countryside town in a younger body. A body that also happened to be oddly in tune with both Aura and Psychic abilities.
Experiencing the Pokémon world in first person? Check. Bringing Pokémon and items back to the real world when logging out? Also check. Using Aura and Psychic abilities in the real world? Check, for some reason.
“I don’t know what is happening, but I’ll make the best of it.”
