Pokemon AU

Pokemon AU takes place in the general setting and lore of the Pokemon franchise with the same regions and cities along with some fan-created cities and organizations.
== First Pokemon Week ==
Back in the Shibuya City, the major announced a region-wide tournament to drum up visitors to the area. News spread quickly and even worldwide, attracting trainers from all over the world to participate, of all skill levels. There were also 4-5 Gym Leaders to beat (Carel, Valentine, Calanthe, Jean, and Taiki, each of them bequeathing a badge to the trainers who would take on and beat their challenge. However the tournament was at risk of being canceled when Team Rocket set off a smoke bomb inside the arena, stealing all but one of each trainer's Pokemon. Gotta get 'em back of course, so the team tracked down the Rocket member, who led through a wild goose chase until they finally found Rocket HQ, which they stormed with great success and one (1) Tympole casualty, but they caught the head of the organization Jetto Jaiba and put him in jail. The tournament finally proceeded with everyone's team back safe and sound.
