When Liza and Tate turn fourteen, with their parents still together and not having the sense to realize it would be best if they separated, Lisia and Chaz throw them a big party. It's not like the parties the Hoenn league has whenever the twins are there. They try to limit their drinking whenever they're around, but coordinators don't bother filtering themselves. May, Wally, and Brendan turn down the invitation, and make it clear it has nothing to do with the twins themselves. It's because of Lisia and Chaz. The big bash is at Lisia's house to celebrate. Here Liza and Tate are introduced to coordinators drinking like it's the end of the world and them snorting a powder that Liza and Tate couldn't name. Tate doesn't know half the people Chaz and Lisia invited, but Liza does. Something that's useful when the coordinators want to talk to Tate and Liza fills him in on who they are. Tate doesn't really get why Liza's so enthralled by them all. She explains it's because they're older and prettier and have connections. They're important people, according to his sister, and while Tate agrees, he doesn't get why such important people did things that weren't necessarily great choices.

The audience was silent. Then they started to clap. It's genuine applause, not by flashing signs telling them to do so. It was real. "That was very moving, and honor them you will," said Terry. Iris let out a shy smile, but there was that glint in her eyes. "So, Iris, tell me. How do you feel about becoming a gym leader in a region that's leading in the LNS?" Iris's eyes shimmered even more, and Terry suddenly had a bad, bad feeling. "It's interesting, to say the least," chuckled Iris. Terry almost didn't want to ask. "How so?" "I've done a bit of reading about why the system was made," Iris started off. "It was a system created by Martello Wright, the current Indigo league champion at the time. Who lost all the elites in his region due to Sinnoh's champion, Ivan Cannibal, successfully assassinating them, and started a full fledged war between the nations. We all know this." Terry blinked. Well, Drayden did mention that the girl was incredibly bright, why else would she get this gym leader position? "Yes. We do," Terry remarked. The audience appeared to be at a loss by this, as well. "You seem well-versed in this. Care to explain as to why?" Iris Orochi smiled once more, right before the interview went to hell.

They called them the Striaton triplets. Triple threats, as some would say. Their restaurant was owned by their parents in name, but everyone knew that the triplets were the ones that called the shots. How food was prepared, how to serve, with a pleasant smile. The place had become an entertainment capital, where the brothers would battle each other for the amusement of their patrons, which did not go unnoticed by the Unova league. Alder had been very, very interested in the trio. Cilan was going to try and become a gym leader, while his brothers ran the restaurant. But then Chilli bitched and moaned that it wasn't fair, that why should Cilan get all the fun? Well, according to Cilan, he thought maybe Chilli should work on training with his Pokemon with the time he spent complaining. Cress would turn his nose up at the brothers arguing, and by arguing they meant Chilli ranting at Cilan. Really, Cress could be a pompous ass sometimes. He had a habit of arguing, as well. He had no room to talk. But there was one thing the three of them could agree on. Cilan and his brothers hated the potential idea of a war. Despite the LNS putting Unova in the lead for the very first time, neither of them were happy about it. Neither of the three wanted the competitiveness from the system, battling was simply an entertainment form ever since the three brothers had gotten a Pansear, Pansage, and Panpour each.

which starters did red and blue pick in the league chronicles universe? or is pokemon yellow the closest to canon?

I would say Pokemon Yellow would be the closest. Red has a Pikachu, and Blue has an Eevee.

The League Chronicles has reached 500 kudos!

Words cannot describe how thankful I am that people took the time to read this story I poured my heart and soul into. To think that I thought this was a story people really wouldn’t be into, as the league members from gen1-5 are mostly forgotten. I was wrong.

Thank you 💙

"Why wasn't this girl brought to my attention sooner?" "The girl was wild. Out of control. Completely mad. Think Donna Kentwell, but a hundred times over." Caitlin curled up on the chair outside a room that the veteran instructors of the Canalave Psychic Conservatory were in to speak with Lucian. Caitlin was kicked out of the CPC years ago due to being unable to control. After Lucian plucked her from the Battle Castle, he took her back, forced to wait in this awful chair. They continued speaking of her. "...And you'd think you would contact me for help, like you did when Donna was giving you all a hard time. We have never, ever thrown a psychic child out of this institution, no matter how uncontrollable you think they are. And if you do consider that, then I would like to be notified." "She nearly killed a student with her powers. A boy that was much older than her, and far more advanced than her. There was nothing else we could do." "Hm, did she? And what did he do to offend her?" "Lucian. She nearly killed a student." "I see. Such strength, such power. Remarkable, really." "My god, Lucian. She. Nearly. Killed. A. Student."

Falkner wanted to throw up. All of these combinations, which involved one solution from the people of Kanto. It was to drop Johto entirely, military services be damned even when a war might break out, and have the Johto league fend for themselves. Anarchy would break out on the streets. Violence. War. Tragedy. None of the things Falkner was ready for. It was nothing he ever expected to head toward when he would be dreaming of the day his father would hand him the keys to the Violet City gym. For years, Falkner had been hoping and praying that his father would finally bestow the gift of being the new gym leader of his beloved hometown. Even when there was talk of Janine taking over due to the Fuchsia fiasco and a Sinnohnian psycho, the excessive coverage of it didn't get to Falkner, nor did it sway him even a little from acquiring such a job, a risky one nowadays from the looks of it. Not even when he got word that Team Galactic wanted to end the world. He didn't think much of it. Now Falkner was starting to have some misgivings. "I'll do whatever you tell me to do." The words are out of Falkner's mouth before he could take them back based on the looks on everyone's faces.

Summary:

Just because the Magma-Aqua crisis is over, doesn't mean things stop happening in Hoenn. And the league members? Well, the only way they help is by making Steven Stone's hair grayer with the predicaments they find themselves in. He can pray that Wallace, his boyfriend, won't make it worse. It's a big ask, but they make it work.

Well, eventually.

Steven/Wallace pairing, set in Steven's POV, with appearances of the Hoenn elite four and gym leaders. Set in the same universe as my ongoing story The League Chronicles, where Steven and Wallace regularly appear.

whys he like this hes soooo not normal /j I love him

Burgh Fletcher liked to paint a lot of things. He painted Pokemon, especially his lovely bug-Pokemon, but he wasn't one you would call a 'bug-catcher.' Not at all like those boys that would marvel and coo at bugs and study their biology religiously. He admired them more for their beauty, and their grace, and the fluttering of their wings. He loved painting nature, the trees, the grass, the vibrant flowers, the sun, and the moon, and the stars. He would spend hours upon hours with his sketchbook in a mesmerizing forest just to get some ideas, some inspiration, and would bring it to life with paint as soon as he got to his art studio. But Burgh was a true artist, a true genius, and unfortunately Burgh learned the price of genius was finding himself in the heat of controversy, some scandal, due to Burgh attacking issues that were reflected in his work. One thing that wouldn't change, was that people reacted to Burgh's paintings. There's no profanity in them, no gore, no blood, they're very quiet paintings that have a message. Those that liked Burgh would see themselves in his work because they could relate to the tortured artist's struggle. Those that hated Burgh would curse his name with a spit, and there were many that did. Burgh would paint all sorts of things, but there were ten paintings in particular people would reference when it came to the likes of Burgh Fletcher.

I'd read the heck out of a Steven oneshot

I have already written one! It's called Iron Tide and focuses on his relationship with Wallace and how they came to be.

The link is right here.

He also regularly appears in Hoenn chapters in my ongoing league story The League Chronicles which is linked here.

[sinnohelitefourlore]

I think I'm missing something or skipped a chapter, because what is the secret happening in Indigo? Agatha and Lorelei's leaving+Bugsy mentioned in the last chapter. Did I skip something? Or wasn't it released? Is it a secret just inside the story or for the readers too?

Also, kisses, League Chronicles is my reason to open Ao3, my favourite reading on the subway. Makes my days better

Yup! Lorelei leaving has something to do with Agatha, which won’t be revealed for a while. I think I mentioned things here and there subtlety, but it’s going to shake the Pokemon battling community. Thank you for reading the story!

the overwhelming urge to write another steven stone oneshot in compliance to my ongoing story.

"No one laughs at Arceus when one has to face their own mortality." Will Callavon didn't think much of Karen's statement when they first crossed paths when they were ten, but now, looking deeply into those silverly-blue eyes of hers as she untied him, he knew that she was right. He wasn't laughing when her brothers had found him. Before Will knew it, he had been praying. Praying that someone would find him and spare him. When Karen turned the corner, still beautiful and entrancing as ever, Will realized his prayers had been answered. There was a god, maybe not Arceus, but some sort of god. "Run." Will was planning on doing what Karen said, but not without being able to touch her first. His heart was beating out of his chest as he squeezed her hands briefly, and tried desperately to ignore the fluttering his stomach as he whispered his thanks, and then fled into the night. From the moment his eyes left Karen's, he already missed her.

If you had to put a number on it, how many league members got worse(like mentally) after joining their respective leagues?

Oh my goodness, this is such a good question. Though I would arguably say that more than fifty percent of these people get more and more unhinged throughout the story, if they weren't already. Chances are, when you become a league member when you're mentally well, that'll very much change. The thing is- it's the level of how unhinged each of these characters get. And it varies. A lot. I'll list a few where the league does change them for the worse:

Liza and Tate: This is a very surprising first entry, I can imagine. Liza and Tate are twelve when they start, but as I've explained in a prior post, they turn thirteen when Magma and Aqua pick up. They turn thirteen, and that's when the problems start. A lot of shit is going on in their lives that I'll go in depth with when it comes to their own separate short story in line with The League Chronicles.

Aaron: This, on the other hand, is a not-so-surprising entry. If you're caught up with the story, then you'll see how Aaron's behavior changes and it's not pretty. I want to make it clear that unlike every other character mentioned, he actually has a mental health issue that's undiagnosed for the moment - but it will gain traction. It's quite different from everyone else here because he's a teenager, and this diagnosis in particular, it tends to peak and show symptoms for late teens / early twenties, and Aaron is right at that age bracket.

Misty- In the story, Misty has a terrible relationship with her three older sisters and her parents because they don't respect her. She is taken under Lorelei's wing, and Lorelei channels Misty's anger into what she does best- battling. It's said that there were some trainers that battled best when they were enraged. She is one of them. While this is true, it's definitely not healthy. When she becomes a gym leader by dethroning her older sister, she has no more contact with her family. She wouldn't hear a word from her family as long as she's alive. That... does something to her. She goes on dates with boys and punches the cameras of the paparazzi who get too close and ruin it.

Lorelei- She is very similar to Misty in those aspects with family troubles, and it's what draws them to each other. But what people know about Lorelei in the story, is that she vehemently despises the Sinnohnians. She fucking hates them ever since Cynthia defeated her in a battle, and when Cynthia became Sinnoh's champion it enrages her, more so when Sinnoh becomes the best league, and it fuels her hatred.

Clair: Due to being in the shadow of her older cousin Lance, she is a character that's doomed from the start. Not to mention you get to see firsthand on how she acts when she loses a battle. She'll always be number two, which in her eyes, is the first to lose. The abuse she suffered in the hands of the Dragon's Den as a little girl shaped her for the harsh realities of being Blackthorn's gym leader, but unfortunately, her PTSD is very real and untreated. The Arrax family (a respected dragon-tamer clan in Blackthorn, that also Lance is apart of) is riddled with alcoholism and mental illness. Trauma passed down to generations. Though Clair and Lance put a stop to it, the effects still linger. And speaking of Lance....

Lance: The pleasant one. At first. When he is an elite four starting out, he is very nice to be around. The Indigo Elite Four has the best trainers in the world at this point and being under Agatha's thumb had taught him a thing or two about diplomacy. Unfortunately, as the years go by, Sinnoh enters the picture- not in a good way, he thinks. In his eyes, the Sinnoh elites that come after Bertha, they seem like cartoon characters. He sees Agatha's point that the Sinnoh elites being promoted are batshit and that irks at Lance. Because they're good trainers but nuts, and it's so different when Lance became an elite. He has some hope with Cynthia being the champ, but he realizes she puts up a front, hides behind a smile, and masks herself as rational despite the things she does. Her actions speak louder, and is okay with shaping up Sinnohnian trainers that don't have the best morals with other regions but they're good at battling. When Sinnoh league's trainers are named as the best trainers in the world, it sickens him. And that's when Lance starts to change. Especially after Team Rocket in Kanto. The Sinnohnians had mocked him subtly, hinting that Sinnoh would've handled it better, and he realizes that these trainers bring out the absolute fucking worst in him, and realizes he doesn't care anymore. He steers clear from alcohol, that alcoholism runs in the family, but more than once because of them he is on the verge of relapsing.

There are plenty more characters I'm sure, but these are the ones that especially come to mind.
