Two young Trainers arrive in Kanto to forge their own paths, separate from their famous fathers. Toru Oak is the Alola League Champion. He has never lost a battle. He says he's looking for stronger opponents, but that's not the only reason he takes off to Kanto. He's running from his broken home. Nakhil Arichi once wanted to be an astronaut, but since his father disappeared, all he cares about is making a name for himself as the greatest Trainer in the world. He has failed to triumph over two Pokémon Leagues already and lost spectacularly to his half-brother Barry at the Battle Tower in Sinnoh. This time, Nakhil is determined to succeed, and he will gladly crush Toru to do so... but that isn't what he really needs. He needs to grieve... ...And there are things much bigger and darker than lost and grieving kids in the shadows of the Pokémon world, like whoever killed Palmer, Nakhil's father. This is the sequel to Pokémon: The Hour Before Dawn. It can be read on its own, but I'd recommend reading the prequel first. Rated mature for violence. Some of the battles get quite gory. There's also a bit of swearing.

What is life like in post-Team Plasma Unova? A young family from Orre is about to find out. Amber is the only Gym Challenger who came close to defeating the new Orre League Champion, her cousin Zane. She's also the daughter of World Champion Leon. Her husband is an Orrean football player who clawed his way out of poverty in Pyrite Town. They board the plane to Castelia City with their four year-old son Camden and a mixture of excitement and nerves. Will Trip succeed as the Unova Emboar quarterback? Can Amber collect all eight Badges with a four year-old in tow? The biggest concern of all, however, is... are they really living in a post-Team Plasma Unova? If the old man stalking one of Unova's heroes, N, is anything to go by, they may not be. ★★★ CW: There are deaths in this story. The battles get quite violent. There's also a lot of swearing. Timeline: 36 years after Pokémon Black/White, 34 years after Black 2/White 2 Regions: Mostly Unova, but there are references to various original regions based on other American states (hard to avoid when there's football involved!) and the Gharab region, which is based on Morocco and the setting of another story, Pokémon Vanadinite. Main canon characters: N, Hilda, Rosa, Hugh ★★★ This is a sequel to Pokémon Bloodstone and prequel to Pokémon Obsidian. You don't need to read my other stories to understand this one (references to the past will be explained), but I'd recommend it to avoid spoilers and get familiar with all the OCs and families. My stories are best read in the order they were written: 1. Pokémon Homecoming 2. Pokémon Fool's Gold 3. Pokémon Battle Armour 4. Pokémon Bloodstone 5. Pokémon Obsidian 6. Pokémon Azurite 7. Pokémon Turquoise 8. Pokémon: Out of the Woods 9. Pokémon Mars 10. Pokémon: The Hour Before Dawn 11. Pokémon Lepidolite
