As a citizen of Violet City in Johto, he can't stand it any longer and decides to take matters into his own hands. Constantly living under the shadow of his brother, Falkner, Jared feels left out and imperfect. He feels that the only way to change this is to become a Pokémon master as well, and take his brother's place. But what happens when Jared's plan to start his journey backfires? *Winner of the Pokémon Watty Awards 2014 (Adventure)*

Peace, prosperity, and Pokémon. That's what the Hoenn region should be all about, day after day. You shouldn't have to worry about the "bad guys", because the Elite Four will keep them in line. You aren't supposed to be concerned about poverty, because there's always a helping hand when you're down. And most of all, you shouldn't have to fear for your Pokémon's safety. The Pokémon Centers are there to take care of your beloved partners. They can automatically heal minor injuries, and if they come down with a little cold, nurses will get your Pokémon top quality treatment to ensure their rapid recovery. But what happens when the Nurse Joys and Pokémon Centers of the world just aren't enough? You suddenly have to go everyday worrying that your precious Pokémon will be next. You have to take all precautions to make sure that they're exposed as little as possible. You realize that, in the middle of this tragedy, it's the perfect opportunity for evil to strike. And it's only a matter of time before they do.

Let the battles begin!

Everything is epic with music.
