Arenas:
Arena: Morioh City
Morioh City. A quiet little space just east of Vermillion City. Known for its cute landmarks and good waterfront, it makes a good vacation home for many during the summertime.
But it's not summer. It's early. It's cold. It's raining. If this small town weren't so quaint, you would have gotten tired of the scenery a while ago. You stand on a seemingly abandoned street corner. Not a soul around except for the man parked down the block. Is he waiting on somebody? Before you make up your mind to walk up to him and ask just where the gym is, somebody yawns behind you.
"AAaaugh sorry about that. I'm not used to getting up this early, and it's showing. Well, are you ready to go?"
You turn around and see a familiar face. It's Granny Pie, the simple yet fun BBP player you've gotten to know over the years. There's no way in hell he's the Gym Leader.
"Now, I know what you're thinking. 'There's no way in hell I'm the Gym Leader,' right? Well, you're right! Haha! I'm just a messenger, a Stand-in, if you will. But if you really want the Punchbuggy Badge, I can take you to the real Leader."
Comforted by the familiarity of his mannerisms, you nod in affirmation, and follow Granny's lead as he begins to walk away from the street corner.
"Funnily enough, you almost stumbled upon the Gym by accident! I guess what he says is true; 'Strong trainers attract strong trainers.'"
You wonder just what that means, but before long begin how long this is going to take, walking in the cold and the wet, when Granny stops in front of a ruined mansion. It looks like it's been through half of a demolition. Some walls are busted in, some windows are busted out... it's like someone was throwing bricks at the house while a small explosion detonated.
"No one lives here now, so the Gym Leader and the foundation he works with got in touch with the BBP Gym League, and turned it into the new Bug Gym! Why Bug, I have no idea, but he once ate a live spider in front of me. It was disgusting!!!
...
Anyways, what are you standing around listening to me prattle about? Get in there! And good luck!!!"
Granny Pie gives you a gentle push towards the half-imploded front door of the mansion/Gym, and you stumble forward, feeling equal mixtures of anxiety towards the unknown and annoyance towards the Pie. You push open the door, badly burnt and barely on its hinges, and call out into the mansion. You are answered swiftly and violently.
"HEAVEN'S DOOR!!"
An invisible shape rushes you down, and you black out before you have time to even flinch, and almost instantly come to at the foot of some stairs behind you. In front of you is a large dirt arena, clearly under the base of the house, exposed by the torn up wood flooring, and crawling with mites and ants. A few puddles and deeper pools dot the large arena, filled by the cold rainwater dripping in from the gaping hole in the ceiling. A man sits across from you, on the other side of the arena. Is that... the man waiting by the car from earlier? Before you can call out and ask, he daintily finishes off the tea he was holding, puts the book he was reading facedown, and rises to face you.
"My apologies for the rude greeting, Trainer. I simply wanted to determine whether you were who you claimed to be or not. I've learned that one cannot be too cautious in today's day and age. My name is Rohan Kishibe, and I will be your challenge. If you would, please notice the abundance of insects around the arena. Please understand that I find bugs to be fascinating. The perfect creatures, living and watching and reading and writing and learning since time immemorial. But they're not just the pinnacle of evolution itself, they are also... how should I say... Incredibly useful. You see, I've learned a lot in my time since I've returned home to Morioh City. A friend of mine found incredible usage with his powers, and I've found a way to write my own will into a legion of insects to mimic his abilites and those of others that I have met. Don't worry, however. I wish to learn much more than I wish to prevail, and if losing will teach me, then I prefer it to defeating you and learning little. That being said, do not hold back! In return, I shall give you my all, and we shall both see and learn and read and grow from each other."
His long-winded monologue over, Rohan prepares his Pokeballs, and your challenge begins!
OPEN THE GAME!!!
Arena Effects
- Light Rain is the default weather condition. Light Rain has similar properties to rain in activating abilities and changing the base power of types, but all moves are executed as if the weather is clear. Burn's attack drop does not apply while Light Rain is up.
- Heaven's Door!! Bug-type Pokemon have been taught the way to write their wills into their opponents so that their attacks do as they intend. Bug-types have the effects of Mold Breaker.
- Harvest!! All Pokemon will find that their items get collected and returned to them by a mysterious power. All Pokemon gain the effects of Pickup.
- No One Can Just Deflect the Emerald Splash!! The boulders of Rock Slide are broken up into smaller fragments by a mysterious power, resulting in it losing its flinch chance.
- Nigerundayo!! The arena itself feels oddly menacing, in a way that seems almost insurmountable, leaving all Pokemon with the itch in the back of their minds that escaping is the only way to survive. All Pokemon gain the effects of the ability Run Away.
- Stand Proud!! It feels like the arena itself encourages strength through the menace, giving Pokemon with fear in their hearts the will to hold on and fight. After all, those with the most to lose have the most to gain. 4x weaknesses use a 2x damage multiplier instead of 2.25x.
- All moves are possible and permitted.
- Camouflage turns the user into a Ground type.
- Nature Power summons Earthquake.
- Secret Power will cause sleep if its effect activates.
- Switch-forcing moves used on the gym leader can only summon a Pokemon the gym leader has already revealed.
