Chapter 8: Training Class 101 (2)

“Due to our strict entry requirements to the Academy, I’m sure there is no one here who is under the delusion that pokemon are our servants meant to obey our every whim, but, if for some reason you think humans are superior, know that you are wrong and this is not the place for you”.

“With that said, according to mythology our entire universe was created by pokemon, an ancient text found in Sinnoh says the following: In the great void of chaos and nothingness, a solitary Egg emerged, from which hatched Arceus, the primordial being of creation. Arceus then used its boundless power to create the three fundamental forces of time, space, and anti-matter. However, in response to its insatiable appetite for destruction, Giratina was banished by Arceus to the otherworldly realm of Distortion. In the aftermath, Dialga and Palkia, the masters of time and space, worked together to forge the universe and bring forth the vibrant world of Pokémon before retreating into their own respective dimensions.”

“I’m not going to talk to you about this myth of creation being true or false, what I want you to think about is the fact people and pokemon are linked from the beginning of history itself. From ancient records to current scientific papers, our understanding of the world leads us to know the importance of the connection between people and pokemon”.

“As this is not a history course, I will stop there on the subject.”

“It is important for trainers to understand how our society came to be, some of you might have heard stories from your older relatives, decades ago most regions were at war with each other, causing suffering for both people and pokemon. This stopped when the Pokemon League was created, champions all around the world joined together and collaborated with governments to bring an end to the wars, creating the peace and prosperity we live in today.”

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

“This has allowed our society to quickly develop, scientifical discoveries and technological innovation keep advancing at a breathtaking pace, due to this we have no shortage of food or energy, every need and problem our ancestors lived through has been solved”.

“But you must understand this peace is not always certain, it takes a lot of work to maintain. Because out there in the world exist people with misguided goals and ambitions, people who use pokemon as tools for their own selfish desires, who are willing to cause pain and suffering if they can accomplish their objectives. That’s the reason the Pokemon League encourages for young trainers to join every year, strong pokemon trainers are essential to keep our society safe”.

“It has taken some time to develop the current system, even up until thirty years ago, young kids no more than ten years old were sent on journeys to become pokemon trainers, leaving a large number of casualties every year. But no more, traditions of old have been replaced by a system for young trainers to grow safely and stronger.”

“Nowadays, kids go to a regular school until the age of twelve, when they are given the choice to become pokemon trainers by attending specialized schools such as our Academy. After three years of proper education, meaning, by the time they are fifteen years, young trainers are allowed to go on a journey to develop as trainers. Our whole infrastructure is built for you, for young trainers to thrive, a competitive environment carefully designed to develop strong pokemon trainers”.

“You must understand, before the current system, you could find a ten-year-old facing a trainer twenty years older, it wasn’t fair, it was setup in such a way that older generations of trainers could flaunt their power against inexperienced trainers. That is no longer a problem, the Pokemon League Conferences held every year are categorized so that young trainers will only face each other. That’s the reason for the existence of the Rookie Conference, the Junior Conference, the Amateur Conference and the Professional Conference”.

“What I’m trying to say is, our existence as pokemon trainers is very important, not because of the sport made of this profession, the tournaments and competitions exist for strong trainers to appear, trainers who are essential for our peaceful world to exist. That’s why I want you all to keep in mind how important it is to be here, to know the importance of your role as a pokemon trainer.”
