Pokemon Battle Revolution

 POKEMON BATTLE REVOLUTION

Now, let’s move on to Pokemon Battle Revolution, a new console game in the same vein as the Pokemon Stadium games, where you can transfer your Pokemon over and just have them battle each other in full 3D graphics. You play as Nate or Cyndy, who are visiting a big Pokemon-battling theme park called Poketopia. Poketopia has a number of colosseums where you can battle, including the Gateway, Main Street, Waterfall, Neon, Crystal, Sunny Park, Magma, Sunset, Courtyard, Stargazer, and Lagoon Colosseums. Each one of these as a Colosseum leader, including Joe, Taylor, Marina, Rosie, Voldon, Sashay, Terrell, Dusty, Kruger, and Mysterial.

Pokemon Diamond and Pearl

 POKEMON DIAMOND AND PEARL

And now, we come to Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, the beginning of the fourth generation of the franchise, originally designed as something of a finale for the series, before they ultimately decided to keep going. These games were based in Sinnoh, based on the real world island of Hokkaido.

Your main character this time is Lucas or Dawn, with the other acting as an assistant to Professor Rowan, who is the game’s resident professor. Barry, your next-door neighbor with an extreme case of hyperactivity, acts as your rival. Your mom is also the most active she has ever been in the series, with a job as one of the head judges of the Pokemon beauty contests you can participate in.

Sinnoh has a standard Pokemon league, with your eight gym leaders being: Roark (Rock), Gardenia (Grass), Maylene (Fighting), Crasher Wake (Water), Fantina (Ghost), Byron (Steel), Candice (Ice), and Volkner (Electric). The Elite Four include Aaron (Bug), Bertha (Ground), Flint (Fire), and Lucian (Psychic), topped off with probably the most famous Champion of them all, Cynthia.

The main villains are Team Galactic, a sci-fi themed group of nihilists who plan to summon the Pokemon gods of space and time and use them to wipe out the entire universe and recreate in their image. Bit of a jump from Yakuza members and environmental extremists who don’t think things through, but I’ll take it. Their leader is Cyrus, and his three admins are Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter.

One more set of characters worth mentioning are your travel companions, a set of five characters who will join you as you travel through a specific area and act as your doubles partner for any battles you come across. These include Cheryl, Mira, Riley, Marley, and Buck.

Across the Sinnoh region, the cities and towns include Twinleaf Town, Sandgem Town, Jubilife City, Oreburgh City, Floaroma Town, Eterna City, Hearthome City, Solaceon Town, Veilstone City, Pastoria City, Celestic Town, Canalave City, Snowpoint City, Sunyshore City, and the Pokemon League. Notable landmarks include the Hotel Grand Lake, Pal Park, Eterna Forest, Mount Coronet with Spear Pillar on top, the Battle Zone, Stark Mountain, the Old Chateau, the Great Marsh, Lake Verity, Lake Valor, and Lake Acuity, the Underground, and Iron Island.

And that’s about everything we need for now. Let’s see what we’ve got:

Character Sheet: Jirachi and Deoxys

JIRACHI/DEOXYS

And now, let’s finish off our Gen III Pokédex with our two Mythicals, Jirachi and Deoxys. Jirachi is a little wishing star mixed with those little wish tag things from Japanese culture, with a third eye on its belly that grants wishes. Deoxys is an alien virus from outer space based on a DNA strand, that changes forms in order to switch its stats around.

Here’s the movesets I came up with:


Standard B: Psychic | Hyper Beam


Side B: Zen Headbutt | Wrap


Up B: Cosmic Power | Psycho Boost


Down B: Healing Wish | Skill Swap


Final Smash: Doom Desire | Meteor Impact (the meteor from the ORAS post-game specifically)


Entrance: Both falling from the sky, ironically enough.


Taunts: Jirachi snoozing, dancing around playfully, things like that. Deoxys stretching its limbs, flying around, and so on.


Kirby Hat: Jirachi’s star, Deoxys’s face.


Kart: Just flying

Special Move: Doom Desire, Skill Swap


Spirit Battle: Ranger Team Base, Sky Pillar


Victory Screen: Jirachi making a wish for a party, Deoxys flying back into the sky.

Losing Screen: Fainted


Color Swaps: Main, shiny, other general colors.


Thanks for reading! Now, let’s update the trainer system.

Character Sheet: The Weather Trio

KYOGRE/GROUDON/RAYQUAZA

And finally, we come to the main box Legendaries of Gen III, three powerful Pokemon with absolute domain over the sea, land, and sky respectively. Kyogre and Groudon were sought after by Team Aqua and Team Magma to further their goals, but upon being awoken, the pair started to rampage, their eternal hatred for each other leading to a battle that threatened to destroy the world, until you, the player, manage to summon Rayquaza down from the stratosphere in order to mediate between the pair.

Here’s the movesets I came up with for each:


Standard B: Hydro Pump | Fire Blast | Dragon Pulse


Side B: Aqua Tail | Precipice Blades | Extreme Speed


Up B: Ancient Power | Eruption | Dragon Ascent


Down B: Sheer Cold | Earthquake | Hurricane


Final Smash: Primal Kyogre | Primal Groudon | Mega Rayquaza


Entrance: Being awoken by their respective orb, or descending from the clouds.


Taunts: Roaring, presenting their orbs, things like that.


Kirby Hat: The tops of their heads mostly.


Kart: Just them rampaging on their own.

Special Move: Hydro Pump, Earthquake, Dragon Ascent


Spirit Battle: 100% Sky Pillar. That’s practically what I picked the stage for. 


Victory Screen: Kyogre flooding the whole world, Groudon drying up the seas, or Rayquaza sending them both back to sleep.

Losing Screen: Fainted.


Color Swaps: Main, shiny, other general colors.


Thanks for reading! Next up, Jirachi wishes to join the battle!

Character Sheet: Latias and Latios

LATIAS/LATIOS

Latias and Latios are two more Legendaries of Gen III, a pair of friendly dragons mixed with fighter jets that like to race around the world and act as the “traveling” legendaries of the generation. Latias is also notable for, um, being a potential love interest of Ash Ketchum.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:


Standard B: Dragon Pulse


Side B: Psychic


Up B: Tailwind


Down B: Heal Pulse


Final Smash: Mega Latias | Mega Latios


Entrance: Racing in at top speed


Taunts: Pulling off an aerial maneuver, waving happily, things like that.


Kirby Hat: Their head things that look like cockpits.


Kart: Just flying

Special Move: Tailwind


Spirit Battle: On Sky Pillar


Victory Screen: Performing a big finale move from an air show

Losing Screen: Fainted


Color Swaps: Main, shiny, other general colors


Thanks for reading! Next up, Kyogre rises from the deep!

Character Sheet: The Regis

REGIROCK/REGICE/REGISTEEL

And now for our first set of Legendaries, a trio of ancient golems made from different elements, all slumbering inside ancient tombs until you can work out the riddles of each and awaken them. They’d later gain a creator in Gen IV and two new siblings in Gen VIII, but we’ll cover them later.

Here’s the movesets I came up with:


Standard B: Rock Throw | Ice Beam | Flash Cannon


Side B: Stone Edge | Bulldoze | Metal Claw


Up B: Ancient Power | Blizzard | Heavy Slam


Down B: Iron Defense | Stomp | Iron Defense


Final Smash: Power of the Giants


Entrance: Awakening from their statues


Taunts: “Un un un un!,” probably not Registeel’s infamous artwork pose, taking up their slumbering poses, things like that.


Kirby Hat: Made of their specific element with their button things on his face.


Kart: The Poke Ball car

Special Move: Ancient Power


Spirit Battle: On Mt. Chimney


Victory Screen: Raising their arms as their button eye things glow.

Losing Screen: Crumbling down.
