\pagebreakNum # How to Create a Kanto Campaign ## Introduction This book is written for the Dungeon Master. It contains a complete Pokemon 5E adventure, as well as descriptions for every location, item, and NPC that appears in the adventure. It also introduces the Pokemon World and it teaches you how to run a Pokemon 5E game. All of the resources needed to run this campaign can be found on the Pokemon 5E subreddit: r/Pokemon5e, including the Pokemon 5E Manual and Gen I-V Monster Manuals. If you have never been a Dungeon Master, checking out the Dungeon & Dragons *Dungeon Master Guide* would be a great starting place. ### Glossary * **Characters.** This term refers to the adventurers run by the players. They are the protagonists in any D&D adventure. A group of characters or adventurers is called a party. * **Nonplayer Characters (NPCs).** This term refers to characters run by the DM. How a NPC behaves is dictated by the adventure and by the DM. * **Boxed Text.** At various places, the adventure presents descriptive text that's meant to be read or paraphrased aloud to players. This read-aloud text is offset in boxes. Boxed text is most commonly used to describe rooms or present bits of scripted dialogue. * **Stat Block.** Any Pokemon or NPC that is likely to be involved in combat requires game statistics so that the DM can run it effectively. These statistics are presented in a format called a statistics block, or stat block. You'll find the stat blocks needed for each chapter within their respective chapters. ### Abbreviations * DC = Difficulty Class * AC = Armor Class * SR = Species Rating * HP = Hit Points * PP = Power Points * ₱ = Poke Dollar \columnbreak ## Ability Checks The adventure often tells you what ability checks characters might try in a certain situation and the DC of those checks. Sometimes, adventurers try things that the adventure can't possibly anticipate. It's up to you to decide whether their attempts are successful. If it seems like anyone should have an easy time doing it, don't ask for an ability check; just tell the player what happens. Likewise, if there's no way anyone could accomplish this task, just tell the player it doesn't work. Otherwise, answer these three simple questions: * What kind of ability check? * How hard is it? * What's the result? In the Pokemon Universe there are a number of ability checks that could come up that aren't a part of the standard D&D experience. The most notable of these is using a Pokemon's skills outside of battle. For some DM's it may be worth creating a new ability called PokePower that covers using a Pokemon's skills and abilities outside of battle. Again, this is up to the DM's discretion. It is also important to determine the difficulty of the task. The easiest way to set a DC is to decide whether the task's difficulty is easy (DC 10), moderate (DC 15), or hard (DC 20). ## Adventure Hook You can let players invent their own reasons for receiving Pokemon, or you can use the following adventure hook. The backgrounds and secondary goals on the character sheets also provide characters with motivations for beginning their Pokemon journey. ***The Pokemon Journey.*** The characters are in the city of Pallet Town when the region's professor, Professor Oak, contacts their mothers to remind them that the yearly Pokemon Journey Send Off is taking place the following morning. This has been a dream of all of the characters so they quickly gather the essentials and prepare for the next morning. ## Getting Started DMs should have the players create level 1 trainers with a Pokedex, selecting a specialization and Starter Pokemon with a Nature of their choice. There are three options for choosing a starter Pokemon that are detailed later on in this campaign book. The players will be given their Starter by Professor Oak, so it should not be woven into any of the players backstories. Encourage players to think up interesting characteristics about their trainers. There can be several goals that characters try to achieve: collecting all of the Pokemon, defeating 8 gym leaders and entering the Indigo Plateau, and defeating Team Rocket.

\pagebreakNum ## Traveling Time spent travelling can be decided by the DM. Distances between cities are provided at the beginning of each location. However, there are several mechanisms that can help with determining the length of time in game hours it takes to get from one place to the next. * Walking - 2 miles/hour or 3 km/hour * Running - 3 miles/hour or 5 km/hour * Bicycling - 5 miles/hour or 8 km/hour * Ferry - 80 miles/hour or 130 km/hour * Train - 100 miles/hour or 160 km/hour * Transport Pokemon * Flying - 30 miles/hour or 48 km/hour * Surfing - 25 miles/hour or 40 km/hour * Riding - 20 miles/hour or 32 km/hour ### Walking and Running At the beginning of the adventure trainers can walk or run. Walking will not tire out the trainer, but running will. Depending on the trainer's backstory, running will tire out the trainer at different levels. For example, if the trainer never exercises and sits around all day eating chocolate while playing the latest video game, that trainer will tire out more quickly than a trainer who does exercise, etc. Deciding how that factors into the game, however, is completely up to the will of the DM. ### Bicycling A bicycle is not able to be purchased until Cerulean City. It is an optional key item that may be purchased with a Bike Voucher. The Voucher can be obtained in Vermillion City by the chairman of the Pokemon Fan Club. Bicycles cannot be ridden in tall grass, swampy areas, or in the snow. ### Ferry There are several notable Ferries in the Kanto Region. The one from Pallet Town to Cinnibar can only be ridden if the trainer has ₱10,000. The other ferry goes from Stone Town to Cinnibar. For the trainer to ride on this ferry, they must have defeated at least 6 gyms. ### Train During the Kanto Saga, the Magnet Train is under construction. When Johto is released, there will be a train linking Saffron City to Goldenrod City with a few stops along the way. A Train Ticket is needed to ride the train. \columnbreak ### Transport Pokemon Pokemon can be used for transport as is often the case in the video games and can be seen in the anime as well. In order for a Pokemon to be used as transport they must meet certain criteria. Saddles are required items that may be purchased. They will make the trainer more comfortable when riding. It will take the Pokemon some time to get used to wearing a saddle. After a Pokemon becomes comfortable wearing a saddle, their loyalty increase +1. Saddles can be purchased in different PokeMarts throughout the region.

\pagebreakNum ## Hidden Locations For added spice, here is a d20roll table of addable locations as a bonus find for particularly inquisitive adventurers that deserve a reward every now and then.
##### Hidden Locations Table | d20 | Location | How to Find | |:---:|:---:|:---| | 1 | Hidden Grotto | Fairy, Psychic | | 2 | Treehouse | Grass, Flying, Bug | | 3 | Lava Cave | Fire, Rock, Ground | | 4 | Cemetary | Ghost, Dark | | 5 | Ice Cave | Ice, Rock | | 6 | Mountaintop Observatory | Flying, Ghost | | 7 | Abandoned Factory | Electric, Steel, Poison | | 8 | Shipwreck | Water, Fighting | | 9 | Satellite/Meteor Crash | Extra-Terrestrial | | 10 | Black Market Tent | Any Type | | 11 | Abandoned Mine | Rock, Steel | | 12 | Abandoned Greenhouse | Grass, Poison, Bug | | 13 | Hidden Tomb | Psychic, Ghost, Ground | | 14 | Hidden Lake/Waterfall | Water, Dragon | | 15 | Abandoned Dojo | Fighting, Psychic | | 16 | Abandoned Church | Dragon, Fairy, Dark | | 17 | Thunderstorm | Flying, Electric, Water | | 18 | Volcanic Glacier | Fire, Ice | | 19 | Abandoned Laboratory | Fossil, Artificial | | 20 | Secret Cottage | Any Type |
## Tips for Running a 3-4 Person Campaign If running a 3-4 person campaign, a few things should be noted. The biggest challenge will be evening out encounters. Look at the roll tables for the wild encounters and either adapt them as needed or have your players roll 1-4 d100's depending on how many Pokemon you want them to encounter. A good rule of thumb is to match the wild encounter level with the Trainer's Pokemon levels. The same set up could be said for gym leaders and trainer encounters. \columnbreak The D&D campaign set up guides will also be vary helpful when attempting to run a 3-4 person campaign using this campaign guide. ## Wild Encounters There are many ways to approach wild encounters. Each route and wild place in this campaign has a roll table associated with it to help create wild encounters. These roll tables have columns based on the SR of the Pokemon. Stat blocks for the Pokémon within each encounter can be found in the Pokémon Monster Manual unless otherwise stated. The two most appropriate for this game are as follows: ##### Method 1 As the DM, have a pre-selected number of encounter you want your trainer to endure. Have the trainer roll a d100 on the encounter table provided in each section for each of those encounters. ##### Method 2 As the DM, allow your trainer to encounter as many or as few wild Pokemon as they see fit. Have the trainer roll a d100 for the encounter table provided in each section every time he or she wants to battle a wild Pokemon. ##### Method 3 As the DM, provide your trianer with the option of exploring different parts of the route. Ask the trainer if they want to walk on the path (avoiding encounter), walk in the grass, or explore the trees. There will be generalized random encounters depending on the terrain available shortly. ## Wild Pokemon Defense Pokemon can be in the wild for any reason, to better create wild encounters here is a roll table to help lay the scene. |d12| Location | |:--:|:---| |1|Defending territory or an item| |2|Running from a trainer or Team Rocket| |3|Protecting a fellow Pokemon| |4|Playing with a Pokemon| |5|Stealing an item| |6|Sneaking up behind a trainer/Pokemon| |7|Hiding behind an object| |8|Attacking another wild Pokemon| |9|Reaching for a high up object| |10|Helping a trainer/Pokemon in need| |11|Escaping from a cage| |12|Blowing bubbles, singing, or laughing|

\pagebreakNum ## Wild Held Items and Picking Up Items Every so often a wild Pokemon may be found with a held item when caught OR a Pokemon in a trainer's party will pick up an item. In both instances, use the d50 table below. ### Wild Held Item If a trainer catches a Pokemon and they want to know if that Pokemon is holding an item, have them roll a d12. On a successful roll of a 10+, have them roll a d50 on the table below to see which item the Pokemon is holding. ### Picking Up Item Once per day, a Pokemon in the trainer's party that has the ability Pickup, can roll a d20. If the trainer successfully rolls a 15+, have them roll a d50 on the table below.
| d50 | Item | |:---:|:---------| | 1 | Berry Juice | | 2 | Potion | | 3 | Soda Pop | | 4 | MooMoo Milk | | 5 | Energy Drink | | 6 | Energy Root | | 7 | Heal Powder | | 8 | Revival Herb | | 9 | Sacred Ash | | 10 | Lava Cookie | | 11 | Candy Bar | | 12 | Fresh Water | | 13 | Lemonade | | 14 | Pokeball | | 15 | Great Ball | | 16 | Cheri Berry | | 17 | Chesto Berry | | 18 | Pecha Berry | | 19 | Rawst Berry | | 20 | Aspear Berry | | 21 | Leppa Berry | | 22 | Oran Berry | | 23 | Lum Berry | | 24 | Persim Berry | | 25 | Sitrus Berry | | d50 | Item | |:---:|:---------| | 26 | Razz Berry | | 27 | Air Balloon | | 28 | Charcoal | | 29 | Lucky Egg | | 30 | Magnet | | 31 | Miracle Seed | | 32 | Mystic Water | | 33 | NeverMelt Ice | | 34 | Poison Barb | | 35 | Polkadot Bow | | 36 | Sharp Beak | | 37 | Shell Bell | | 38 | Silver Powder | | 39 | Smoke Ball | | 40 | Quick Claw | | 41 | Iron | | 42 | Calcium | | 43 | Zinc | | 44 | Carbos | | 45 | Protein | | 46 | PP Up | | 47 | HP Up | | 48 | Super Potion | | 49 | Ultra Potion | | 50 | Honey |
\columnbreak ## Shiny Rate If a trainer wants to go shiny hunting or know if the wild Pokemon is a shiny, have them roll a d100. On a successful d100 the wild Pokemon is shiny. ## Every Town In every town there are a few locations that can be expected. ### Pokemon Center Pokemon Centers are a type of building that provides regulatory services for Pokémon Trainers. Pokémon Centers are found in most towns and cities of the Pokémon world; every major city or town holds a Pokémon Center. Some Pokémon Centers can be found outside of towns next to large forests or caves. Pokémon Centers are built where many Trainers gather and the area becomes popular. This is to accommodate those Trainers in need and serve as a resting spot. The most common service the Pokémon Center offers is healing Pokémon free of charge. Trainers can find a PC in every Pokemon Center that will allow them to transfer Pokemon to and from their team. ### PokeMart PokeMarts are a convenience store that sells supplies necessary for Pokémon training. All Poké Marts will sell standard adventure supplies (such as HP and status restaurants and Poké Balls), but some stores will also sell special items that are often unique to the store (such as Net Balls in Blackthorn City and Quick Balls in Lavender Town). Poké Marts will also buy many items from customers, usually at half their normal sale price. ### Police Station Police stations are generally small buildings that station an Officer Jenny. You can report crimes to Officer Jenny. She may give tips on where recent Team Rocket Activity has occurred. ### Trainer Hostel Trainer hostel's cost ₱50 for one stay. They are a place for trainers to rest. They can also be used to speed up time from a DM POV. Hostels have individual rooms, but also have a common space that is usually accompanied by hammocks, a juke box, a bar, and a swimming pool. A stay at a hostel will provide the same advantages of a long rest. It will also add a +1 to attack bonus during the next battle.

Add your proficiency modifier to related checks.|₱1000| ## Training Pokemon ### Status Effect Changes Pokemon through training can be immune to status effect changes. To gain immunity to status effect changes, a players Pokemon must successfully defeat 5 Pokemon from that location without using any items. So if a player wants their Sandshrew to be immune to poisoning, they must successfully defeat 5 Pokemon that know poison-causing moves from Sayda Labs or Professor Oak's Laboratory. Sayda Labs and Professor Oak's Laboratory at Trainer LVL 6 will train Pokemon to be immune to status effect changes such as Poison, Paralyze, Burn, Sleep, Frozen, Confuse, Infatuate, Blinded, and skill changes in battle to STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, and CHA. \columnbreak ### Technical Moves The Pokemon Technical Institute outside of Vermillion City can be used to train Pokemon who have learned a Technical Machine. By training at the Technical Institute, Pokemon receive a +1 attack damage for the move they trained to become proficient. Proficiency of a move requires that Pokemon successfully lands that move 3 times in a row. Pokemon receive a +2 attack damage for the move they trained to master. Mastery of a move requires that Pokemon successfully lands that move 5 times in a row. The moves may occur against multiple different Pokemon, but if the player's Pokemon fails to land the move, than the count begins again. ### Resistances & Immunities Aside from wild encounters, trainer battles, and gym battles, players can opt to train their Pokemon at Training Halls. These are buildings specifically designed for training your Pokemon to gain a resistance or immunity to a specific type of Pokemon. Training Halls can only train one of your Pokemon at a time. Likewise, a Pokemon can only be immune to a maximum of two Pokemon types. Therefore if a Pokemon is training for a third immunity, they must give up one of their other two immunities. To gain resistance to a specific type, a players Pokemon must successfully defeat 3 Pokemon from that Training Hall without using any items. If a player wants their Sandshrew to be resistant to Water-type attacks, they must successfully defeat 3 Pokemon from the Water-Type Training Hall. To gain immunity to a specific type, a players Pokemon must successfully defeat 5 Pokemon from that Training Hall without using any items. If a player wants their Sandshrew to be immune to Water-type attacks, they must successfully defeat 5 Pokemon from the Water-Type Training Hall. Training Halls are located throughout the Kanto Region. Here are their general locations:
| Type | Location | |:---:|:-----------:| | Bug | Pallet Town | | Dark | Maiden's Peak | | Dragon | Pokemon League | | Electric | Vermillion City | | Fairy | Hidden Village | | Fighting | Bruno's House | | Fire | Cinnabar | | Flying | Sunnytown | | Ghost | Lavender Town | | Type | Location | |:---:|:-----------:| | Grass | Celadon City | | Ground | Viridian City | | Ice | Rifure Village | | Normal | Laramie Town | | Poison | Fuchsia City | | Psychic | Saffron City | | Rock | Pewter City | | Steel | Gringey City | | Water | Cerulean City |

\pagebreakNum ## Gym Battle's There are 12 possible gym battles in the Kanto Region. All of them are **optional**; however, 8 must be defeated in order to enter the Pokemon League. Trainer's may battle all 12 gyms if they so choose. Trainer's may also battle the gym leaders without battling them for the gym badge, bu the trainer must specify that they are doing so. Upon successfully beating a gym leader, the trainer will receive a the gym badge, a cash reward, and an item/TM. That information is specified in the Gym Supplement. For more information on Gym Leaders check out the Gym Leader Supplement. ## Trainer Battle's Throughout the region, it is inevitable to encounter trainers that want to battle. While all trainers are optional to battle, it is encouraged to battle them as they are the main source for PokeDollars and a great source for experience. Due to the nature of the Kanto Region, a Trainer supplement has been created specifically for encountering trainers. This supplement details each trainer that can be battled. The Trainer Supplement provides a roll table, a description of the types of trainers, the trainers specialization, and the Pokemon that each encounterable trainer is likely to have. ## Pokemon League The Pokemon League can be challenged in two ways: The Elite Four and the Indigo League Tournament. Neither may be attempted until the trainer has beaten 8 Gym Leaders. ### The Elite Four + Champion The Elite Four are a group of Pokemon Masters who guard the title of Pokemon Champion. The trainer must battle all four masters without resting. Trainers are allowed to heal Pokemon between battles but only with items in the Trainer's bag. Once the Elite Four have been defeated, the trainer will then battle the Pokemon Champion. If the Champion is defeated, the trainer will be crowned the new Pokemon Champion and will receive a cash reward and title of Pokemon Champion. Several new locations will become available upon defeating the previous Pokemon Champion. ### Indigo League Tournament The Indigo League Tournament is a tournament held at the Indigo Plateau. It features 8 rounds of battle. Each round takes place on a randomized field that has a unique effect added onto it. Trainers are allowed to rest and heal their Pokemon between each round. However, they may only choose 3 Pokemon for each round of battle. They may switch out Pokemon between battles. Trainer's will not know who their competitor is until battle begins. Upon successfully making it through each of the 8 rounds, the Trainer will receive a cash reward, title of Indigo League Champion, and access to several hidden areas. \columnbreak ## Beginning the Adventure To begin the adventure, the trainer should receive some sort of wake up from either their parent(s) or alarm clock. This could be a birthday cake celebration, a noisy alarm clock, waking up late and the parent is checking in on them, etc. Think about your player’s backstories and what would work best. Eventually they need to end up at Oak’s Laboratory to receive their starting Pokémon.
The stone steps up to Oak's lab are steep and numerous. You lose count after 157, but as you catch your breath and finally reach the top, the open doors and constant hum of computers welcomes you inside. Arranged on the walls on either side of you are cabinets full of beakers, test tubes, microscopes and other laboratory equipment, book cases full of thick encyclopedias, and huge consoles with black screens and flashing panels. Neatly arranged on the black and white tile floor are wide desks where Oak's assistants work diligently on science experiments, pour over the pages of large manuals, or mindlessly read text from the computer screens that you cannot comprehend. On the far end of the lab, a tall, grey-haired man in a white coat studies over a table arranged with a collection of Pokéballs - the famous Professor Oak.
### Roleplaying Professor Oak Professor Oak is an eccentric man in his mid-50s who has dedicated his life to the study of Pokémon. He is very excited about the creatures and is eager to learn anything and everything he can about them. The Professor is extremely intelligent - so much so that his speech is often quick and full of big words that may go over the head of the trainers. Even so, he is kind-hearted and slow to anger, unless someone is interrupting his precious Soap Opera-watching time. Oak thanks the trainers for being willing to help him, and offers them each a Pokedex, 5 Pokeballs, and an Explorer's Pack. He has only one request: * He has heard rumors that many new Pokémon have been seen migrating to Kanto. He requests that you catch and record as many of these Pokemon into your Pokédex so that he may research their migrating patterns. As the player(s) leave Oak's lab, their mom is waiting right outside to see them off. She gives them a potion, ₱3000, a region map, and enough snacks to get them through to Viridian City. Oak reminds them to take Route 1 to Viridian City, and that wild Pokemon can be found in the tall grass or in the trees off the path, so they should be careful to stay away from those areas if things get rough. There is a Pokémon Center in Pallet Town that they can always return to if their Pokémon faints, and another one once they reach Viridian City.

Major Cities
\pagebreakNum ## Pallet Town ### Description Pallet Town is a small and peaceful town not far from the sea. It is most well known for being the location of Professor Oak’s lab, perched on top of the tallest hill. However, there are also a lot of other interesting buildings for all types of trainers such as the Bug Training Hall. Trainers can head out into Pallet forest up to Viridian City or if properly equipped it is possible to access the sea from the town. ### Notable Locations #### Oak's Laboratory In the southeast corner of town is Professor Oak's Lab. Here, Pokémon Trainers just beginning their quest are given the choice to receive either a Bulbasaur, Charmander, or Squirtle from Professor Oak. On the occasion that Professor Oak is out of the previously listed Pokémon, he has been seen to hand out Pikachu and Eevee. **NPC Interactions.** Here you will most likely come into contact with Professor Oak and his Aid. Every so often a random trainer will pop in asking Oak about their Pokemon he is watching for them. Professor Oak will only give encouragement and may push the trainer to start on their Pokémon journey. He won't say much else other than give pointers towards catching Pokémon. Professor Oak's Aid will give useful information as to which Pokémon are weak or strong against others. She may also provide random information about which Pokémon that are currently staying in Oak's Corral. **Fill Out the Pokédex.** Professor Oak has heard rumors that many new Pokémon have been seen migrating to Kanto. He requests that you catch and record as many of these Pokémon into your Pokédex so that he may research their migrating patterns. **Battle Professor Oak.** If the trainer's want to battle Professor Oak, he will have access to any of the following Pokémon: Taurus, Exeggcutor, Gyarados, Arcanine, Blastoise, Venusaur, and Charizard. #### Pallet Town Harbor The harbor is a bustling place full of tourists. It has a beach for seasonal tourists, an airport for sea planes, and a dock for boats going to and coming from Cinnibar. The cost of a boat ride to Cinnibar is ₱5,000. **NPC Interaction.** Mr. Garrison is the Mayor of Pallet Town and can usually be found checking out the business hub of the town which is located at the harbor. He doesn't listen to anything you say and just laughs while saying 'Yes, yes' with a jolly attitude. \columnbreak #### Trainer's House This house is where the trainer lives before beginning their journey. The trainer's Mom lives here. The player's bedroom has a PC, a bed, and a TV with an SNES hooked up to it. It serves no other purpose, although the PC can be used to access the player's item storage, where a single Potion can be found and withdrawn from at the start of the game. On either side of the trainer's house are their neighbor's: Mr. Tango & Ms Owns. Mr. Tango can be heard muttering to himself on his porch about young whipper snappers.

She is the burgler. The trainer(s) will either confront her or overhear her talking about how she needs to return to Cerulean City to retrieve her patch. If they confront her, Jessie will battle them with an Arbok. If they defeat her, she will still run off to the burgled house because she needs her patch. If the trainer(s) have brought the patch with them and give it to her, Jessie will still run off to Cerulean to clean up any last traces of herself from the crime scene. If they lose to Jessie, the trainer(s) will be locked up by Team Rocket and will need to figure out how to escape. Good luck DM on solving that one. If they overhear her talking and do not confront, then she will escape back down to Cerulean where they will battle her in the burgled house. Once they return to Cerulean City, Officer Jenny will be off on a different mission. When the trainer(s) enter the burgled house, they will see Jessie either looking for the patch or cleaning up any traces that she was even there. Regardless, she will challenge the trainer to a battle with her Arbok and Meowth. **Treasure.** If the trainer(s) defeats Jessie, she will give the trainer(s) ₱1300 and TM Dig. Jessie will flee. The house owner will return right after Jessie flees and thank the trainer(s) for fending off the burgler. In return, the house owner will give the trainer(s) a Revive. If the trainer(s) loses to Jessie, she will knock the trainer out and steal half their money and one of their Pokemon. The trainer will wake up in the Pokemon Center with the house owner looking over them concerned. **Awarding Experience.** Defeating Arbok will reward the trainer's Pokemon with 2,200 XP. Defeating Meowth will reward the trainer's Pokemon 500 XP

A door to the right leads to what the trainer(s) can assume are a living area. ##### Ice Training Hall This training hall can be used to allow a trainer's Pokemon gain resistance or immunity to Ice-Type moves. See the **Resistances & Immunities** section at the beginning of the booklet for more information. ##### Kinso's Workshop Located on the outskirts of this tiny village, this structure is used by Kinso to make Gym Badges along with other objects that require the use of a kiln or welding materials. Upon entering Kinso's workshop, the trainer(s) will see that it is empty. **Shiny Vulpix.** Behind Kinso's Workshop is a wooded grassy area. If the trainer(s) explore that area have them roll a d100. Upon a successful 98+ they will encounter a shiny Vulpix. **Kinso's Conundrum.** If the trainer(s) decide to explore the surrounding area for Kinso, have them find him in a ditch with a sprained ankle. Have them roll a Charisma check DC 12. If a success, Kinso will ask for help and accept. If a fail, Kinso will be stubborn and get out of the ditch himself (add +2 to DC for all future Charisma rolls with Kinso). If they strike up a conversation with Kinso the trainer(s) will learn that he crafts badges for gym leaders throughout the Kanto Region. When they return to his workshop, they discover that thieves have stolen all the badges. The workshop is in utter disarray. Shelves are thrown over, tools are strewn across the floor, and different metals can be seen throughout the room. A Feraligatr seems to be sleeping in the corner. Kinso enters the room, yelling the following: \columnbreak
What good is a Feraligatr if it doesn't even wake up when a burglar comes in!? [He walks over to the Feraligatr and slaps it across the face. It doesn't move, it just keeps sleeping.] Hmmm it seems its been put to sleep. Okay so maybe I was wrong on that part. But still, look at my workshop! Those blasted Team Rocket Trainees. They are always stealing from Bill and I. We need a better security system! If you return what they stole from me and teach them a lesson, I will pay you ₽1000.

### Description A long, winding dirt path stretches out before you, curving up and down along a series of rolling hills underneath a clear, sunny sky. The landscape is full of fields of tall grass, spotted with trees. In the distance, tall snow-capped peaks of a majestic mountain range loom on the horizon. Flocks of winged Pokémon dart from tree to tree as the tall grass ebbs and flows with the movement of wind and the small creatures that play within. ##### Length of Route * Miles: 4.6 * Kilometers: 7.5 ### Route Connections Route 1 connects Pallet Town with Viridian City.

\pagebreakNum ### Pokédex Entries ***Pidgey.*** Pidgey has an extremely sharp sense of direction. It is capable of unerringly returning home to its nest, however far it may be removed from its familiar surroundings. ***Rattata.*** Rattata is cautious in the extreme. Even while it is asleep, it constantly listens by moving its ears around. It is not picky about where it lives—it will make its nest anywhere. ***Hoppip.*** This Pokémon drifts and floats with the wind. If it senses the approach of strong winds, Hoppip links its leaves with other Hoppip to prepare against being blown away. ***Kricketot.*** It chats with others using the sounds of its colliding antennae. These sounds are fall hallmarks. ***Foongus.*** It lures people in with its Poké Ball pattern, then releases poison spores. Why it resembles a Poké Ball is unknown. ***Meowth.*** Meowth withdraws its sharp claws into its paws to slinkily sneak about without making any incriminating footsteps. For some reason, this Pokémon loves shiny coins that glitter with light. ***Swablu.*** Swablu has light and fluffy wings that are like cottony clouds. This Pokémon is not frightened of people. It lands on the heads of people and sits there like a cotton-fluff hat. ***Espurr.*** The organ that emits its intense psychic power is sheltered by its ears to keep power from leaking out. ***Pumpkaboo.*** The pumpkin body is inhabited by a spirit trapped in this world. As the sun sets, it becomes restless and active. ***Pidgeotto.*** Pidgeotto claims a large area as its own territory. This Pokémon flies around, patrolling its living space. If its territory is violated, it shows no mercy in thoroughly punishing the foe with its sharp claws. ***Raticate.*** Raticate's sturdy fangs grow steadily. To keep them ground down, it gnaws on rocks and logs. It may even chew on the walls of houses. ***Kricketune.*** It crosses its knifelike arms in front of its chest when it cries. It can compose melodies ad lib. ***Skiploom.*** Skiploom's flower blossoms when the temperature rises above 64 degrees Fahrenheit. How much the flower opens depends on the temperature. For that reason, this Pokémon is sometimes used as a thermometer. ***Persian.*** Persian has six bold whiskers that give it a look of toughness. The whiskers sense air movements to determine what is in the Pokémon's surrounding vicinity. It becomes docile if grabbed by the whiskers. ***Volbeat.*** With the arrival of night, Volbeat emits light from its tail. It communicates with others by adjusting the intensity and flashing of its light. This Pokémon is attracted by the sweet aroma of Illumise. ***Amoonguss.*** They show off their Poké Ball caps to lure prey, but very few Pokémon are fooled by this. ***Meowstic.*** When in danger, it raises its ears and releases enough psychic power to grind a 10-ton truck into dust. \columnbreak ***Pidgeot.*** This Pokémon has a dazzling plumage of beautifully glossy feathers. Many Trainers are captivated by the striking beauty of the feathers on its head, compelling them to choose Pidgeot as their Pokémon. ***Altaria.*** Altaria dances and wheels through the sky among billowing, cotton-like clouds. By singing melodies in its crystal-clear voice, this Pokémon makes its listeners experience dreamy wonderment. ***Gourgeist.*** Singing in eerie voices, they wander town streets on the night of the new moon. Anyone who hears their song is cursed. ***Jumpluff.*** Jumpluff rides warm southern winds to cross the sea and fly to foreign lands. The Pokémon descends to the ground when it encounters cold air while it is floating.

### Description The dusty and well-used path snakes its way into the shadow of Viridian Forest, a dense sprawl of trees reflecting the bright sunlight off their leaves. Another path diverges around the trees, making a straight but narrow alleyway through the forest as the land slopes upwards with a dark cave at the end. Small creatures rustle around in the tall grass, occasionally darting between the trees where birds carefully make their nests. Route 2 is split into two sections. The Accessible Area leads straight to Viridian Forest. The Closed Off Section will become available once the trainer has defeated three gym leaders. Professor Oak's Aid's are waiting in both the Northern and Southern Gate's preventing the trainer from accessing the Closed Off Section. ##### Length of Route **Accessible Section:** Miles: 3; Kilometers: 4.8 **Closed off Section:** Miles: 4; Kilometers: 6.4 \columnbreak ### Route Connections Route 2 connects Viridian City to Route 3 and Pewter City.

It is capable of unerringly returning home to its nest, however far it may be removed from its familiar surroundings. ***Rattata.*** Rattata is cautious in the extreme. Even while it is asleep, it constantly listens by moving its ears around. It is not picky about where it lives—it will make its nest anywhere. ***Oddish.*** During the daytime, Oddish buries itself in soil to absorb nutrients from the ground using its entire body. The more fertile the soil, the glossier its leaves become. ***Doduo.*** Doduo's two heads never sleep at the same time. Its two heads take turns sleeping, so one head can always keep watch for enemies while the other one sleeps. ***Ekans.*** Ekans curls itself up in a spiral while it rests. Assuming this position allows it to quickly respond to a threat from any direction with a glare from its upraised head. ***Phanpy.*** For its nest, Phanpy digs a vertical pit in the ground at the edge of a river. It marks the area around its nest with its trunk to let the others know that the area has been claimed. ***Gulpin.*** Virtually all of Gulpin's body is its stomach. As a result, it can swallow something its own size. This Pokémon's stomach contains a special fluid that digests anything. ***Blitzle.*** When thunderclouds cover the sky, it will appear.

To keep them ground down, it gnaws on rocks and logs. It may even chew on the walls of houses. ***Gloom.*** Gloom releases a foul fragrance from the pistil of its flower. When faced with danger, the stench worsens. If this Pokémon is feeling calm and secure, it does not release its usual stinky aroma. ***Arbok.*** This Pokémon is terrifically strong in order to constrict things with its body. It can even flatten steel oil drums. Once Arbok wraps its body around its foe, escaping its crunching embrace is impossible. ***Donphan.*** Donphan's favorite attack is curling its body into a ball, then charging at its foe while rolling at high speed. Once it starts rolling, this Pokémon can't stop very easily. ***Dodrio.*** atch out if Dodrio's three heads are looking in three separate directions. It's a sure sign that it is on its guard. Don't go near this Pokémon if it's being wary—it may decide to peck you. \columnbreak ***Pidgeot.*** This Pokémon has a dazzling plumage of beautifully glossy feathers. Many Trainers are captivated by the striking beauty of the feathers on its head, compelling them to choose Pidgeot as their Pokémon. ***Swalot.*** When Swalot spots prey, it spurts out a hideously toxic fluid from its pores and sprays the target. Once the prey has weakened, this Pokémon gulps it down whole with its cavernous mouth. ***Zebstrika.*** When this ill-tempered Pokémon runs wild, it shoots lightning from its mane in all directions. ***Vileplume.*** Vileplume's toxic pollen triggers atrocious allergy attacks. That's why it is advisable never to approach any attractive flowers in a jungle, however pretty they may be. ***Bellossom.*** When Bellossom gets exposed to plenty of sunlight, the leaves ringing its body begin to spin around. This Pokémon's dancing is renowned in the southern lands.

The tail separates into six if this Pokémon receives plenty of love from its Trainer. The six tails become magnificently curled. ***Sunkern.*** Sunkern tries to move as little as it possibly can. It does so because it tries to conserve all the nutrients it has stored in its body for its evolution. It will not eat a thing, subsisting only on morning dew. ***Foongus.*** It lures people in with its Poké Ball pattern, then releases poison spores.

\pagebreakNum ### Pokédex Entries ***Mankey.*** When Mankey starts shaking and its nasal breathing turns rough, it's a sure sign that it is becoming angry. However, because it goes into a towering rage almost instantly, it is impossible for anyone to flee its wrath. ***Geodude.*** The longer a Geodude lives, the more its edges are chipped and worn away, making it more rounded in appearance. However, this Pokémon's heart will remain hard, craggy, and rough always. ***Koffing.*** If Koffing becomes agitated, it raises the toxicity of its internal gases and jets them out from all over its body. This Pokémon may also overinflate its round body, then explode. ***Spoink.*** Spoink bounces around on its tail. The shock of its bouncing makes its heart pump. As a result, this Pokémon cannot afford to stop bouncing—if it stops, its heart will stop. ***Minccino.*** Minccino greet each other by grooming one another thoroughly with their tails. ***Clefairy.*** On every night of a full moon, groups of this Pokémon come out to play. When dawn arrives, the tired Clefairy return to their quiet mountain retreats and go to sleep nestled up against each other. ***Makuhita.*** Makuhita is tenacious—it will keep getting up and attacking its foe however many times it is knocked down. Every time it gets back up, this Pokémon stores more energy in its body for evolving. ***Skiddo.*** Thought to be one of the first Pokémon to live in harmony with humans, it has a placid disposition. ***Drifloon.*** A Pokémon formed by the spirits of people and Pokémon. It loves damp, humid seasons. ***Deerling.*** Their coloring changes according to the seasons and can be slightly affected by the temperature and humidity as well. ***Shuckle.*** Shuckle quietly hides itself under rocks, keeping its body concealed inside its hard shell while eating berries it has stored away. The berries mix with its body fluids to become a juice. ***Primeape.*** When Primeape becomes furious, its blood circulation is boosted. In turn, its muscles are made even stronger. However, it also becomes much less intelligent at the same time. ***Graveler.*** Graveler grows by feeding on rocks. Apparently, it prefers to eat rocks that are covered in moss. This Pokémon eats its way through a ton of rocks on a daily basis. ***Hariyama.*** Hariyama practices its straight-arm slaps in any number of locations. One hit of this Pokémon's powerful, openhanded, straight-arm punches could snap a telephone pole in two. ***Clefable.*** Clefable moves by skipping lightly as if it were flying using its wings. Its bouncy step lets it even walk on water. It is known to take strolls on lakes on quiet, moonlit nights. ***Drifblim.*** It carries people and Pokémon when it flies. But since it only drifts, it can end up anywhere. ***Cinccino.*** Their white fur feels amazing to touch. Their fur repels dust and prevents static electricity from building up. ***Weezing.*** Weezing loves the gases given off by rotted kitchen garbage. This Pokémon will find a dirty, unkempt house and make it its home. At night, when the people in the house are asleep, it will go through the trash. \columnbreak ***Sawsbuck.*** They migrate according to the seasons. People can tell the season by looking at Sawsbuck's horns. ***Grumpig.*** Grumpig uses the black pearls on its body to amplify its psychic power waves for gaining total control over its foe. When this Pokémon uses its special power, its snorting breath grows labored. ***Gogoat.*** It can tell how its Trainer is feeling by subtle shifts in the grip on its horns. This empathic sense lets them run as if one being. ***Golem.*** Golem live up on mountains. If there is a large earthquake, these Pokémon will come rolling down off the mountains en masse to the foothills below.

**Image Credit.** TrainerParshen - DeviantArt ### Pokédex Entries ***Mankey.*** When Mankey starts shaking and its nasal breathing turns rough, it's a sure sign that it is becoming angry. However, because it goes into a towering rage almost instantly, it is impossible for anyone to flee its wrath. ***Geodude.*** The longer a Geodude lives, the more its edges are chipped and worn away, making it more rounded in appearance. However, this Pokémon's heart will remain hard, craggy, and rough always. ***Koffing.*** If Koffing becomes agitated, it raises the toxicity of its internal gases and jets them out from all over its body. This Pokémon may also overinflate its round body, then explode. ***Spoink.*** Spoink bounces around on its tail. The shock of its bouncing makes its heart pump. As a result, this Pokémon cannot afford to stop bouncing—if it stops, its heart will stop. ***Roggenrola.*** Its ear is hexagonal in shape. Compressed underground, its body is as hard as steel. ***Clefairy.*** On every night of a full moon, groups of this Pokémon come out to play. When dawn arrives, the tired Clefairy return to their quiet mountain retreats and go to sleep nestled up against each other. ***Makuhita.*** Makuhita is tenacious—it will keep getting up and attacking its foe however many times it is knocked down. Every time it gets back up, this Pokémon stores more energy in its body for evolving. \columnbreak ***Skiddo.*** Thought to be one of the first Pokémon to live in harmony with humans, it has a placid disposition. ***Drifloon.*** A Pokémon formed by the spirits of people and Pokémon. It loves damp, humid seasons. ***Deerling.*** Their coloring changes according to the seasons and can be slightly affected by the temperature and humidity as well. ***Shuckle.*** Shuckle quietly hides itself under rocks, keeping its body concealed inside its hard shell while eating berries it has stored away. The berries mix with its body fluids to become a juice. ***Primeape.*** When Primeape becomes furious, its blood circulation is boosted. In turn, its muscles are made even stronger. However, it also becomes much less intelligent at the same time. ***Graveler.*** Graveler grows by feeding on rocks. Apparently, it prefers to eat rocks that are covered in moss. This Pokémon eats its way through a ton of rocks on a daily basis. ***Hariyama.*** Hariyama practices its straight-arm slaps in any number of locations. One hit of this Pokémon's powerful, openhanded, straight-arm punches could snap a telephone pole in two. ***Boldore.*** Because its energy was too great to be contained, the energy leaked and formed orange crystals. ***Clefable.*** Clefable moves by skipping lightly as if it were flying using its wings. Its bouncy step lets it even walk on water. It is known to take strolls on lakes on quiet, moonlit nights. ***Drifblim.*** It carries people and Pokémon when it flies. But since it only drifts, it can end up anywhere. ***Weezing.*** Weezing loves the gases given off by rotted kitchen garbage. This Pokémon will find a dirty, unkempt house and make it its home. At night, when the people in the house are asleep, it will go through the trash. ***Sawsbuck.*** They migrate according to the seasons. People can tell the season by looking at Sawsbuck's horns. ***Grumpig.*** Grumpig uses the black pearls on its body to amplify its psychic power waves for gaining total control over its foe. When this Pokémon uses its special power, its snorting breath grows labored. ***Gogoat.*** It can tell how its Trainer is feeling by subtle shifts in the grip on its horns. This empathic sense lets them run as if one being. ***Golem.*** Golem live up on mountains. If there is a large earthquake, these Pokémon will come rolling down off the mountains en masse to the foothills below. ***Gigalith.*** The solar rays it absorbs are processed in its energy core and fired as a ball of light.

Apparently, there are good stalks and bad stalks.

Because the Pokémon does not move, it does not get very hungry. ***Politoed.*** The curled hair on Politoed's head is proof of its status as a king.

The forest houses many creatures, some in the branches and others hidden in small clearings. ##### Length of Route: 2.33 sq mi | 3.75 sq km ### Route Connections Route 8 connects Rifure Village with the Southern Great Rifure Forest ### Trainer Encounters: 2 **Trainer's Likely to be Encountered:** Ace Trainer, Clown, Collector, Coolest Kid in School, Dancer, Depot Agent, Dragon Breeder, Gentleman, Gym Leader-in-Trainer, Hiker, Hunter, Jogger, Juggler, Lady/Rich Boy, Lass, Lone Wolf, Master of None, Mythologist, Park Ranger, Pilot, PokeManiac, Punk, Ranger, Reporter/Cameraman, Scavenger, School Kid, Shiny Hunter, Storyteller, Super Nerd, Triathlete, Youngster, Beach Bum, Beauty, Fisher, Sailor, Surfer, Swimmer, Tuber, Aroma Lady, Backpacker, Bird Keeper, Bug Maniac, Cyclist, Fun Old Lady/Guy, Gardener, Rancher ### Hidden Items The following item can be found hidden on Route 8: *Super Potion, Great Ball, Razz Berry.* ### Shiny Slowpoke If the trainer(s) go to explore the river have them make a perception check DC 18. If they pass the check, they will see a Shiny Slowpoke sunbathing on a boulder in the middle of the river. \columnbreak ### Pokédex Entries ***Pidgey.*** Pidgey has an extremely sharp sense of direction. It is capable of unerringly returning home to its nest, however far it may be removed from its familiar surroundings. ***Rattata.*** Rattata is cautious in the extreme. Even while it is asleep, it constantly listens by moving its ears around. It is not picky about where it lives—it will make its nest anywhere. ***Shinx.*** The extension and contraction of its muscles generates electricity. It glows when in trouble. ***Drowzee.*** If your nose becomes itchy while you are sleeping, it's a sure sign that one of these Pokémon is standing above your pillow and trying to eat your dream through your nostrils. ***Pidgeotto.*** Pidgeotto claims a large area as its own territory. This Pokémon flies around, patrolling its living space. If its territory is violated, it shows no mercy in thoroughly punishing the foe with its sharp claws. ***Raticate.*** Raticate's sturdy fangs grow steadily. To keep them ground down, it gnaws on rocks and logs. It may even chew on the walls of houses. ***Girafarig.*** Girafarig's rear head also has a brain, but it is small. The rear head attacks in response to smells and sounds. Approaching this Pokémon from behind can cause the rear head to suddenly lash out and bite. ***Zangoose.*** Memories of battling its archrival Seviper are etched into every cell of Zangoose's body. This Pokémon adroitly dodges attacks with incredible agility. ***Luxio.*** Its claws loose electricity with enough amperage to cause fainting. They live in small groups. ***Hypno.*** Hypno holds a pendulum in its hand. The arcing movement and glitter of the pendulum lull the foe into a deep state of hypnosis. While this Pokémon searches for prey, it polishes the pendulum. ***Pidgeot.*** This Pokémon has a dazzling plumage of beautifully glossy feathers. Many Trainers are captivated by the striking beauty of the feathers on its head, compelling them to choose Pidgeot as their Pokémon. ***Tauros.*** This Pokémon is not satisfied unless it is rampaging at all times. If there is no opponent for Tauros to battle, it will charge at thick trees and knock them down to calm itself.

\pagebreakNum ### Pokédex Entries (cont.) ***Luxray.*** When its eyes gleam gold, it can spot hiding prey—even those taking shelter behind a wall. ***Krabby.*** Krabby live on beaches, burrowed inside holes dug into the sand. On sandy beaches with little in the way of food, these Pokémon can be seen squabbling with each other over territory. ***Wingull.*** Wingull has the habit of carrying prey and valuables in its beak and hiding them in all sorts of locations. This Pokémon rides the winds and flies as if it were skating across the sky. ***Slowpoke.*** Slowpoke uses its tail to catch prey by dipping it in water at the side of a river. However, this Pokémon often forgets what it's doing and often spends entire days just loafing at water's edge. ***Pelipper.*** Pelipper is a flying transporter that carries small Pokémon and eggs inside its massive bill. This Pokémon builds its nest on steep cliffs facing the sea. ***Kingler.*** Kingler has an enormous, oversized claw. It waves this huge claw in the air to communicate with others. However, because the claw is so heavy, the Pokémon quickly tires. ***Slowbro.*** Slowbro's tail has a Shellder firmly attached with a bite. As a result, the tail can't be used for fishing anymore. This causes Slowbro to grudgingly swim and catch prey instead.
***Poliwag.*** Poliwag has a very thin skin. It is possible to see the Pokémon's spiral innards right through the skin. Despite its thinness, however, the skin is also very flexible. Even sharp fangs bounce right off it. ***Corphish.*** Corphish were originally foreign Pokémon that were imported as pets. They eventually turned up in the wild. This Pokémon is very hardy and has greatly increased its population. ***Slowpoke.*** Slowpoke uses its tail to catch prey by dipping it in water at the side of a river. However, this Pokémon often forgets what it's doing and often spends entire days just loafing at water's edge. ***Buizel.*** It swims by rotating its two tails like a screw. When it dives, its flotation sac collapses. ***Finneon.*** The line running down its side can store sunlight. It shines vividly at night. ***Poliwhirl.*** The surface of Poliwhirl's body is always wet and slick with a slimy fluid. Because of this slippery covering, it can easily slip and slide out of the clutches of any enemy in battle. \columnbreak ***Farfetch'd.*** Farfetch'd is always seen with a stalk from a plant of some sort. Apparently, there are good stalks and bad stalks. This Pokémon has been known to fight with others over stalks. ***Crawdaunt.*** Crawdaunt has an extremely violent nature that compels it to challenge other living things to battle. Other life-forms refuse to live in ponds inhabited by this Pokémon, making them desolate places. ***Illumise.*** Illumise attracts a swarm of Volbeat using a sweet fragrance. Once the Volbeat have gathered, this Pokémon leads the lit-up swarm in drawing geometric designs on the canvas of the night sky. ***Basculin.*** Red- and blue-striped Basculin are very violent and always fighting. They are also remarkably tasty. ***Floatzel.*** It floats using its well-developed flotation sac. It assists in the rescues of drowning people. ***Slowbro.*** Slowbro's tail has a Shellder firmly attached with a bite. As a result, the tail can't be used for fishing anymore. This causes Slowbro to grudgingly swim and catch prey instead. ***Slowking.*** Slowking undertakes research every day in an effort to solve the mysteries of the world. However, this Pokémon apparently forgets everything it has learned if the Shellder on its head comes off. ***Politoed.*** The curled hair on Politoed's head is proof of its status as a king. It is said that the longer and more curled the hair, the more respect this Pokémon earns from its peers.

\pagebreakNum ## Viridian Forest ### Forest Description A sky of bright green leaves shadows the path below as birds chirp while carefully constructing their nests. The tall trees act almost like walls, diverting and splitting the path like a maze. Small creatures run around through the trees and grass, clearly undisturbed by the presence of people in the area. A gentle and filtered wind blows through the grass, causing it to rustle and only adding the feeling that the forest is alive with nature. ### Traveling The Upper Viridian Forest is a maze of pockets. DMs should think of it as a dungeon just in a forest instead of in a cave. Each zone is described below with NPCs, hidden items, and encounterable trainers. Depending on your group the DM can either set up specific encounters or have the trainer(s) roll for wild encounters. The wild encounter table is on the next page. A map of Viridian Forest is on the following page as well. The DM can make this as challenging as they see fit. If the trainer(s) faints/dies in the Viridian Forest, Forest Ranger Dan will find them and immediately med-evac them to Viridian City for treatment. **Trainer's Likely to be Encountered:** Ace Trainer, Aroma Lady, Bird Keeper, Bug Maniac, Clown, Collector, Coolest Kid in School, Dancer, Depot Agent, Dragon Breeder, Gardener, Gentleman, Gym Leader-in-Trainer, Hiker, Hunter, Jogger, Juggler, Lady/Rich Boy, Lass, Lone Wolf, Master of None, Mythologist, Park Ranger, Pilot, PokeManiac, Punk, Ranger, Reporter/Cameraman, Scavenger, School Kid, Shiny Hunter, Storyteller, Super Nerd, Triathlete, Youngster ### Viridian Forest Challenges As the DM you can create added challenges for the group. A few ideas are listed below. ##### Forest Wanderer Challenge As the trainer(s) make their way through Viridian Forest they have this unnerving sense that they are being followed by someone. Right before they come to the exit have the trainer(s) be surprised by a wanderer who jumps out of the bushes and attacks them with a Seviper. If they successfully defeat the wanderer, the wanderer runs back into the forest after dropping ₱200 and a Seviper Egg. If they lose to the wanderer, the wanderer steals their money and runs away into the forest. ##### Sunset Challenge The trainer(s) must make it through Viridian Forest before the sun sets (6 hours). If the sun sets, the forest awakens with stronger Pokemon than the trainer(s) will be able to battle. If they make it through before sunset, Professor Oak's Aid will reward them with an extra ₱2000. \columnbreak ##### Survive the Night Challenge Require the trainer(s) to spend one night in Viridian Forest. The must set up camp and defend themselves from night time creatures. If they successfully make it through the night, Professor Oak's Aid will reward them with an extra ₱2000. ### Zone 1: Entrance Zone 1 is where every trainer will start when they enter the Viridian Forest. There are three paths the trainer(s) can take: to the north, to the east, and to the west. The northern path leads into Zone 6. The eastern path leads into Zone 3. The western route leads into Zone 2. ##### Forest Ranger Dan Dan is at the entrance of Viridian Forest and will inform the trainer the layout of the forest. *"Viridian Forest is a maze of trees. Travelers have been known to lose their way for days on end. Rumor has it that there are still people stuck inside Viridian Forest that have gone insane. I reccommend carrying a flashlight or having a Pokemon that emits light, like a Charmander."* ### Zone 2 Zone 2 has 2 openings. Coming from Zone 1, the trainer(s) will enter a small grassy knoll. To the north will be a larger opening that is characterized by its thick grass, mushroom clusters, and a large fallen tree in the northeastern corner. Zone 2 is a dead end so the trainer(s) will have to turn around. ##### Number of Encounterable Trainers: 1 ##### Hidden Items: * **Antidote:** Inside a hole of the fallen tree.
Wildlands | Viridian Forest
\pagebreakNum ### Zone 3 Leading from Zone 1, Zone 3 starts as a winding path. Within the first 10 feet, there is a path that leads north into Zone 5. If the trainer(s) continue forward they will walk into Zone 4. If they turn southward, the trail will wrap around and the trainer(s) will find themselves in a grassy knoll characterized by a large tree stump in the southwest corner. ##### Number of Encounterable Trainers: 1 ##### Hidden Items: * **Pokeball:** Under a root coming out of the tree stump. ### Zone 4 Zone 4 is a dead end for the trainer(s), so they will need to turn back. If they choose to explore Zone 4, they will find an opening filled with dense grass, small saplings, and a few wild flowers. ##### Number of Encounterable Trainers: 1 ##### Hidden Items: * **Potion:** Nestled under some flowers in the northwestern corner. ### Zone 5 Coming from Zone 3, Zone 5 is by far the largest zone. It is characterized by sparse patches of dense grass. In the northern most section, the trainer(s) will find a tree stump. This zone forms somewhat of a T shape, with the western portion leading to Zone 7 while the eastern portion leads to a dead end. ##### Number of Encounterable Trainers: 3 ##### Hidden Items: * **Dire Hit:** At the dead end near the entrance to Zone 7 on the western side of Zone 5. * **Razz Berry:** Hanging from a tree just before the entrance to Zone 7. * **Potion:** Sitting in a patch of dense grass near the beginning of Zone 5. * **TM 77:** Guarded by a Mankey sitting in a tree at the dead end on the eastern side of Zone 5. ### Zone 6 Zone 6 is a winding path that leads from Route 1 in the south to Zone 5 on its eastern side. The path into Zone 6 from Zone 1 is narrow and dark. It will eventually open up a little bit when the trainer(s) gets more to the north end of the zone. ##### Shiny Eevee: If the trainer explores Zone 6, have them roll a d100. On a successful roll of 100, the trainer(s) encounter a shiny Eevee. \columnbreak ##### Hidden Items: * **Lure:** Sitting under a tree in the southern section of the zone at the end of the winding path.
**Image Credit.** TrainerParshen - DeviantArt ### Zone 7 Zone 7 is characterized by its wide open grassy areas and abundant forest flowers. At the northern end, the path leads into Zone 8. If the trainer(s) continue to travel eastward in this zone, they will reach a dead end. ##### Number of Encounterable Trainers: 2 ##### Hidden Items: * **Revive:** Guarded by a Stunky at the end of the dead end on the eastern side of the zone. ### Zone 8 Zone 8 is split into two sections by a dense wall of trees. The western section is an open area of dense grass. The eastern section is half wild flowers and half dense grass. On the eastern side of the eastern section there is an opening leading into Zone 9. There is a small nook in the north western corner of Zone 8. ##### Number of Encounterable Trainers: 2 ##### Hidden Items: * **Great Ball:** At the base of a tree in the northwestern corner. ### Zone 9: Exit If the trainer(s) have made it to Zone 9, they have successfully made it through Viridian Forest. The exit can be found to the north where one of Professor Oak's Aids is waiting for the trainer(s). ##### Professor Oak's Aid Oak's Aid is waiting for you at the end of Viridian Forest. She will congratulate you on making it out alive. She will reward you with an Exp Share.

It is capable of distinguishing its favorite kinds of leaves from those it dislikes just by sniffing with its big red proboscis (nose). ***Pidgey.*** Pidgey has an extremely sharp sense of direction. It is capable of unerringly returning home to its nest, however far it may be removed from its familiar surroundings. ***Nincada.*** Nincada lives underground for many years in complete darkness. This Pokémon absorbs nutrients from the roots of trees. It stays motionless as it waits for evolution. ***Drowzee.*** If your nose becomes itchy while you are sleeping, it's a sure sign that one of these Pokémon is standing above your pillow and trying to eat your dream through your nostrils. ***Eevee.*** Eevee has an unstable genetic makeup that suddenly mutates due to the environment in which it lives.

Teddiursa concocts its own honey by blending fruits and pollen collected by Beedrill. ***Swablu.*** Swablu has light and fluffy wings that are like cottony clouds.

The cotton serves as a decoy to distract the attacker. ***Kakuna.*** Kakuna remains virtually immobile as it clings to a tree. However, on the inside, it is extremely busy as it prepares for its coming evolution. This is evident from how hot the shell becomes to the touch. ***Shedinja.*** Shedinja's hard body doesn't move—not even a twitch. In fact, its body appears to be merely a hollow shell. It is believed that this Pokémon will steal the spirit of anyone peering into its hollow body from its back. ***Pidgeotto.*** Pidgeotto claims a large area as its own territory. This Pokémon flies around, patrolling its living space. If its territory is violated, it shows no mercy in thoroughly punishing the foe with its sharp claws. ***Aipom.*** Aipom's tail ends in a hand-like appendage that can be cleverly manipulated.

If angered, they will attack in a furious swarm. ***Ursaring.*** In the forests inhabited by Ursaring, it is said that there are many streams and towering trees where they gather food. This Pokémon walks through its forest gathering food every day. \columnbreak ***Ninjask.*** Ninjask moves around at such a high speed that it cannot be seen, even while its crying can be clearly heard.

The arcing movement and glitter of the pendulum lull the foe into a deep state of hypnosis. While this Pokémon searches for prey, it polishes the pendulum. ***Leafeon.*** When you see Leafeon asleep in a patch of sunshine, you'll know it is using photosynthesis to produce clean air. ***Whimsicott.*** They appear along with whirlwinds. They pull pranks, such as moving furniture and leaving balls of cotton in homes. ***Pinsir.*** Pinsir is astoundingly strong. It can grip a foe weighing twice its weight in its horns and easily lift it.

### Zone 10: Pewter Lake The DM can decide whether Pewter Lake is available to the trainer(s) or if it is hidden. If it is hidden the Trainer must have three Pokemon that naturally emit light (Charmander, Mareep, etc), each of a different type. And must be within section 8 or 9 of Viridian Forest. If the trainer(s) accomplishes this read the following.
A deep humming can be felt vibrating through the forest. Just ahead, you see a a new path opening up. It looks as if a lake can be seen just passed a few bushes that were not there only moments ago. A feint rush of wind gently nudges you in the direction of the lake.
\columnbreak ##### Dratini Encounter If the trainer(s) head into Zone 10, have them roll a d100. On a successful roll of 91+, the trainer(s) encounter a Dratini. If this happens, read the following.
As you walk up to the lake, you look into its depths. After several minutes a blue creature pops its head out of the water from behind some lillipads, then dunks back down into the depths. Moments later it comes shooting straight into your face. Slamming into you, the Dratini lands on the ground next to you, looking at you playfully.
##### Hidden Items: **Leaf Stone.** Sitting on a lillipad in the middle of the lake.

\pagebreakNum ## Chapter 11: Mt Moon ### Cave Description With jagged and steep edges, Mt. Moon is difficult to climb so trainers must travel through the labyrinth of caves inside. There are tales of glowing rocks deep in the caves that came from outer space called Moon Stones which supposedly have special evolution properties. Both small and large creatures have said to be seen and the large network of tunnels could lead you anywhere from damp pools to undiscovered crystals. Many features underneath the mountain are yet to be uncovered, making it the perfect ground for explorers. Legends tell of a rare Pokémon that lives within called Clefairy. ### Traveling through Mt Moon Mt Moon is your typical cave system. DMs should think of it as a traditional D&D dungeon. Each zone is described below with NPCs, hidden items, and encounterable trainers. Depending on your group the DM can either set up specific encounters or have the trainer(s) roll for wild encounters. The wild encounter table is on the next page. A map of Mt Moon is on the following page as well. The DM can make this as challenging as they see fit. If the trainer(s) faints/dies in Mt Moon, Greta will find them and immediately med-evac them to Sable City for treatment. **Trainer's Likely to be Encountered:** Ace Trainer, Clown, Collector, Coolest Kid in School, Dancer, Depot Agent, Dragon Breeder, Gentleman, Gym Leader-in-Trainer, Hiker, Hunter, Jogger, Juggler, Lady/Rich Boy, Lass, Lone Wolf, Master of None, Mythologist, Park Ranger, Pilot, PokeManiac, Punk, Ranger, Reporter/Cameraman, Scavenger, School Kid, Shiny Hunter, Storyteller, Super Nerd, Triathlete, Youngster, Artist, Black Belt, Burglar, Camper/Picknicker, Cold Man, Cultist, Doctor, Expert, Guitarist, Hex Maniac, Painter, Psychic, Scientist, Spy, Veteran, Archaeologist, Cultist, Expert, Geologist, Mineralogist, Ruin Maniac ### FLOOR 1 Team Rocket does not operate on this floor of the dungeon. There are legitimate trainers looking for wild pokemon here, some of which suspect something may be going on. However, Jessie and James are currently hanging around near the entrance. \columnbreak ### Zone 1 Zone 1 is the entrance to the cave. There are 4 hanging lanturns by the entrance. Other than that the trainer(s) will need some sort of light to make it through (flashlight or from Pokemon who naturally emit light). Zone 1 leads to Zone 2 in the west and Zone 3 in the east. Here you’ll see Jessie and James standing in front of a sign. Go to Potential Plot Lines for more on Team Rocket. ### Zone 2 Zone 2 is a dead end; however, there are interesting rock features that add to the cavern. ##### NPCs: The encounterable trainer, Kent, in this section has suspicions of Team Rocket’s activity in the region and believes the player may be one of them. A DC 14 charisma (persuasion) check will convince him otherwise. If not, he will attack the player. If defeated, he will flee and be too scared to alert the authorities. ##### Trainer's Likely to be Encountered: 1 ### Zone 3 Coming westward from Zone 1, Zone 3 if the trainer continues east leads into Zone 4. ##### NPCs: The encounterable trainer, Evelyn, here will offer to challenge the player for a wager of ₱160. ##### Trainer's Likely to be Encountered: 1 ##### Hidden Items: * **Potion:** Behind the large rock feature in the northwestern corner. ### Zone 4 Zone 4 goes in three different locations. In the west is the path to Zone 3. In the south, the path leads into Zone 6. To the east, the path continues into Zone 7. There are a few boulders in Zone 4. You can find a ladder in this zone going down a shaft all the way to Zone 11.

\pagebreakNum ### Zone 5 Zone 5 is a dead end with interesting rock features. The only way into and out of Zone 5 is through the small passageway leading to Zone 6. ##### NPCs: The encounterable trainer, Jovan, here is looking for fossils. He’s heard rumors of Team Rocket being here, and is scared of going any further. He will offer to battle for a wager of ₱275. ##### Trainer's Likely to be Encountered: 1 ##### Hidden Items: * **Great Ball:** In some rubble in the northwestern corner. ### Zone 6 Zone 6 connects in the northwest to Zone 4. In the northeast it connects to Zone 7. Going west in Zone 6 will take the trainer(s) to Zone 5. ##### NPCs: The encounterable trainer, Robby, here will offer to battle for a wager of ₱120. Robby will complain about litter bugs dropping stuff, and will thank you for picking up the hidden potion. He will offer ₱75 to buy it from you. ##### Trainer's Likely to be Encountered: 1 ##### Hidden Items: * **Potion:** Dropped in the sand in the southwestern corner. ### Zone 7 This is an empty cavern, with the exception of a few Zubats. To the west it leads back into Zone 4. To the north it leads into the expansive Zone 8. To the south it leads into Zone 6. ##### Hidden Items: * If the player makes a DC 13 Wisdom (Perception) check, they can find an Escape Rope someone dropped. ### Zone 8 This wide open cavern is mostly empty, with the exception of what looks like a dig site. There are three, huge, stone pillars that have been seemingly carved out of the rock walls for stability purposes. ##### Trainer's Likely to be Encountered: 1 ##### Shiny Zubat Encounter If the player explores the three stone pillars have them roll a d100. On a natural 91+, they encounter a Shiny Zubat. \columnbreak ##### Mining Area In the southern section of Zone 8, it looks as if people have been mining for fossils or rare stones. If the trainer(s) have mining tools, they can use them here to dig for fossils or rare stones. Here is a d20 table to see what they retrieve. Have the trainer(s) use their Dexterity modifier. | d20 | Loot | |:---:|:-----------:| |1-13| Fossilized Coprolite (feces)| |14-15| Gen I Fossil | |16| Gen III Fossil | |17| Gen IV Fossil | |18| Gen V Fossil | |19| Gen VI Fossil | |20| Moon Stone | ##### Hidden Items: * **Dusk Ball:** Hidden in the sand in the northeastern corner ### Zone 9 Down this hallway is another ladder going down a shaft leading to Zone 12.

\pagebreakNum ### FLOOR 2 Floor 2 is inhabited by Team Rocket Grunts and their devious plan. ##### Shiny Clefairy Encounter In Zone's 11-15, whenever a trainer encounters a wild Pokemon have them roll a d100 before they roll for encounter. 1-75 have them roll on the encounter table. 76-95 they encounter a Clefairy. 96-100 they encounter a shiny Clefairy. ### Zone 11 This room has a lone, Team Rocket Grunt taking a smoke break. He will warn the player(s) once to leave, then battle them if they refuse. They have a Sandshrew, a Rattata, and a Zubat. The ladder leads back to Zone 4. ##### Hidden Items: * **Rare Candy:** Past the Team Rocket Grunt, upstairs onto a stage-looking platform in a chest. ### Zone 12 This area has a Team Rocket Grunt in the process of attempting to dig out fossils resembling sea shells. Like the Grunt in Zone 11, he tells the trainer(s) once to leave and attacks if they do not. He has an Ekans and a Paras. The ladder leads back to Zone 9. ### Zone 13 The stairways leading down contain a Team Rocket Grunt who is in the process of destroying fossils that Team Rocket has decided not to sell by smashing them with a sledgehammer. He attacks the player(s) on-sight with a 2 Zubat. The ladder leads back to Zone 10. ##### Hidden Items: * **Moon Stone:** A pile of rubble that the Grunt has seemingly smashed. ### Zone 14 Down this way is an empty corridor with little to nothing in it. A random wild pokemon encounter might be appropriate here. At the end of the corridor stands a Level 3 Rocket Grunt with a Rattata and a Zubat. ##### Hidden Items: * **Moon Stone:** Southeast corner in a rock pile. \columnbreak ### Zone 15 In Zone 15, there is a super nerd named Miguel who snuck past Team Rocket trying to collect fossils for research purposes. He was caught by Jessie and James. When the players arrive, they find him battling the two operatives. Go to the Possible Plot Lines section for more Team Rocket information.

### PokeDex Entries (Floor 1) ***Whismur.*** Normally, Whismur's voice is very quiet—it is barely audible even if one is paying close attention. However, if this Pokémon senses danger, it starts crying at an earsplitting volume. ***Zubat.*** Zubat remains quietly unmoving in a dark spot during the bright daylight hours. It does so because prolonged exposure to the sun causes its body to become slightly burned. ***Sandshrew.*** Sandshrew's body is configured to absorb water without waste, enabling it to survive in an arid desert. This Pokémon curls up to protect itself from its enemies. ***Geodude.*** The longer a Geodude lives, the more its edges are chipped and worn away, making it more rounded in appearance. However, this Pokémon's heart will remain hard, craggy, and rough always. ***Roggenrola.*** Its ear is hexagonal in shape. Compressed underground, its body is as hard as steel.

### PokeDex Entries (cont.) ***Dwebble.*** It makes a hole in a suitable rock. If that rock breaks, the Pokémon remains agitated until it locates a replacement. ***Loudred.*** Loudred's bellowing can completely decimate a wood-frame house. It uses its voice to punish its foes. This Pokémon's round ears serve as loudspeakers. ***Graveler.*** Graveler grows by feeding on rocks. Apparently, it prefers to eat rocks that are covered in moss. This Pokémon eats its way through a ton of rocks on a daily basis. ***Sandslash.*** Sandslash's body is covered by tough spikes, which are hardened sections of its hide. Once a year, the old spikes fall out, to be replaced with new spikes that grow out from beneath the old ones. ***Golbat.*** Golbat loves to drink the blood of living things. It is particularly active in the pitch black of night. This Pokémon flits around in the night skies, seeking fresh blood. ***Boldore.*** Because its energy was too great to be contained, the energy leaked and formed orange crystals. ***Crustle.*** It possesses legs of enormous strength, enabling it to carry heavy slabs for many days, even when crossing arid land. \columnbreak ***Exploud.*** Exploud triggers earthquakes with the tremors it creates by bellowing. If this Pokémon violently inhales from the ports on its body, it's a sign that it is preparing to let loose a huge bellow. ***Golem.*** Golem live up on mountains. If there is a large earthquake, these Pokémon will come rolling down off the mountains en masse to the foothills below. ***Crobat.*** If this Pokémon is flying by fluttering only a pair of wings on either the forelegs or hind legs, it's proof that Crobat has been flying a long distance. It switches the wings it uses if it is tired. ***Gigalith.*** The solar rays it absorbs are processed in its energy core and fired as a ball of light. ### PokeDex Entries (Floor 2) ***Paras.*** Paras has parasitic mushrooms growing on its back called tochukaso. They grow large by drawing nutrients from this Bug Pokémon host. They are highly valued as a medicine for extending life. ***Joltik.*** Since it can't generate its own electricity, it sticks onto large-bodied Pokémon and absorbs static electricity. ***Machop.*** Machop's muscles are special—they never get sore no matter how much they are used in exercise. This Pokémon has sufficient power to hurl a hundred adult humans.

### PokeDex Entries (cont.) ***Clefairy.*** On every night of a full moon, groups of this Pokémon come out to play. When dawn arrives, the tired Clefairy return to their quiet mountain retreats and go to sleep nestled up against each other. ***Ferroseed.*** When threatened, it attacks by shooting a barrage of spikes, which gives it a chance to escape by rolling away. ***Machoke.*** Machoke's thoroughly toned muscles possess the hardness of steel. This Pokémon has so much strength, it can easily hold aloft a sumo wrestler on just one finger. ***Parasect.*** Parasect is known to infest large trees en masse and drain nutrients from the lower trunk and roots. When an infested tree dies, they move onto another tree all at once. ***Sableye.*** Sableye lead quiet lives deep inside caverns. They are feared, however, because these Pokémon are thought to steal the spirits of people when their eyes burn with a sinister glow in the darkness. ***Mawile.*** Mawile's huge jaws are actually steel horns that have been transformed. Its docile-looking face serves to lull its foe into letting down its guard. When the foe least expects it, Mawile chomps it with its gaping jaws. ***Clefable.*** Clefable moves by skipping lightly as if it were flying using its wings. Its bouncy step lets it even walk on water. It is known to take strolls on lakes on quiet, moonlit nights. ***Galvantula.*** They employ an electrically charged web to trap their prey. While it is immobilized by shock, they leisurely consume it. ***Heatmor.*** Using their very hot, flame-covered tongues, they burn through Durant's steel bodies and consume their insides. ***Ferrothorn.*** By swinging around its three spiky feelers and shooting spikes, it can obliterate an opponent. ***Onix.*** Onix has a magnet in its brain. It acts as a compass so that this Pokémon does not lose direction while it is tunneling. As it grows older, its body becomes increasingly rounder and smoother. ***Machamp.*** Machamp has the power to hurl anything aside. However, trying to do any work requiring care and dexterity causes its arms to get tangled. This Pokémon tends to leap into action before it thinks. ***Steelix.*** Steelix lives even further underground than Onix. This Pokémon is known to dig toward the earth's core. There are records of this Pokémon reaching a depth of over six-tenths of a mile underground.

\pagebreakNum ## Southern Great Rifure Forest ### Forest Description Surrounded by sharp hills and mountains on all sides, there’s a feeling of claustrophobia as you enter. The little sunlight that gets through the dark canopy of leaves illuminates a rough path twisting it’s way deeper inside the forest.

\pagebreakNum ### PokeDex Entries ***Venonat.*** Venonat is said to have evolved with a coat of thin, stiff hair that covers its entire body for protection. It possesses large eyes that never fail to spot even minuscule prey. ***Meowth.*** Meowth withdraws its sharp claws into its paws to slinkily sneak about without making any incriminating footsteps. For some reason, this Pokémon loves shiny coins that glitter with light. ***Mankey.*** When Mankey starts shaking and its nasal breathing turns rough, it's a sure sign that it is becoming angry. However, because it goes into a towering rage almost instantly, it is impossible for anyone to flee its wrath. ***Growlithe.*** Growlithe has a superb sense of smell. Once it smells anything, this Pokémon won't forget the scent, no matter what. It uses its advanced olfactory sense to determine the emotions of other living things. ***Geodude.*** The longer a Geodude lives, the more its edges are chipped and worn away, making it more rounded in appearance. However, this Pokémon's heart will remain hard, craggy, and rough always. ***Magnemite.*** Magnemite attaches itself to power lines to feed on electricity. If your house has a power outage, check your circuit breakers. You may find a large number of this Pokémon clinging to the breaker box. ***Gastly.*** Gastly is largely composed of gaseous matter. When exposed to a strong wind, the gaseous body quickly dwindles away. Groups of this Pokémon cluster under the eaves of houses to escape the ravages of wind. ***Raticate.*** Raticate's sturdy fangs grow steadily. To keep them ground down, it gnaws on rocks and logs. It may even chew on the walls of houses. ***Haunter.*** Haunter is a dangerous Pokémon. If one beckons you while floating in darkness, you must never approach it. This Pokémon will try to lick you with its tongue and steal your life away. ***Primeape.*** When Primeape becomes furious, its blood circulation is boosted. In turn, its muscles are made even stronger. However, it also becomes much less intelligent at the same time. ***Wobbuffet.*** If two or more Wobbuffet meet, they will turn competitive and try to outdo each other's endurance. However, they may try to see which one can endure the longest without food. Trainers need to beware of this habit. ***Persian.*** Persian has six bold whiskers that give it a look of toughness. The whiskers sense air movements to determine what is in the Pokémon's surrounding vicinity. It becomes docile if grabbed by the whiskers. ***Venomoth.*** Venomoth is nocturnal—it is a Pokémon that only becomes active at night. Its favorite prey are small insects that gather around streetlights, attracted by the light in the darkness. ***Magneton.*** Magneton emits a powerful magnetic force that is fatal to mechanical devices. As a result, large cities sound sirens to warn citizens of large-scale outbreaks of this Pokémon. ***Arcanine.*** Arcanine is known for its high speed. It is said to be capable of running over 6,200 miles in a single day and night. The fire that blazes wildly within this Pokémon's body is its source of power. \columnbreak ***Gengar.*** Sometimes, on a dark night, your shadow thrown by a streetlight will suddenly and startlingly overtake you. It is actually a Gengar running past you, pretending to be your shadow. ***Magnezone.*** Sometimes the magnetism emitted by Magnezone is too strong, making them attract each other so they cannot move.
\pagebreakNum ## Northern Great Rifure Forest ### Forest Description Lying in the shadow of the mountains, the Northern Great Rifure Forest is a large habitat for a variety of Pokémon of all sizes. Being on the edge of the Kanto Region and away from major cities means a lot of this forest is undiscovered meaning all creatures can thrive here.

### PokeDex Entries ***Swinub.*** Swinub roots for food by rubbing its snout against the ground. Its favorite food is a mushroom that grows under the cover of dead grass. This Pokémon occasionally roots out hot springs. ***Cubchoo.*** Its nose is always running. It sniffs the snot back up because the mucus provides the raw material for its moves. ***Delibird.*** Delibird carries its food bundled up in its tail. There once was a famous explorer who managed to reach the peak of the world's highest mountain, thanks to one of these Pokémon sharing its food. ***Snover.*** During cold seasons, it migrates to the mountain's lower reaches.

This Pokémon has been around a long, long, long time. \pagebreakNum ## Rifure Sea ### Sea Description Hidden in the far corner of Kanto is Rifure Sea, a lesser-known habitat for water Pokémon. The water is colder than other areas in the region but the secluded nature of the place means plenty of creatures live in the water or one of the caves hollowed into the mountain side. Researchers from all across Kanto are the most common visitors, using the quieter area as an easier place to study the region’s marine creatures. ##### Length of Rifure Sea: 2.2 sq mi | 3.54 sq km ##### Number of Encounterable Trainers: 3 **Trainer's Likely to be Encountered:** Ace Trainer, Clown, Collector, Coolest Kid in School, Dancer, Depot Agent, Dragon Breeder, Gentleman, Gym Leader-in-Trainer, Hiker, Hunter, Jogger, Juggler, Lady/Rich Boy, Lass, Lone Wolf, Master of None, Mythologist, Park Ranger, Pilot, PokeManiac, Punk, Ranger, Reporter/Cameraman, Scavenger, School Kid, Shiny Hunter, Storyteller, Super Nerd, Triathlete, Youngster, Cold Man, Fisher, Ice Climber, Sailor ### Hidden Items The following items can be found hidden in the Rifure Sea: *Rebreather, Rebreather filter, Tough Candy, Potion*

### PokeDex Entries ***Magikarp.*** Magikarp is a pathetic excuse for a Pokémon that is only capable of flopping and splashing. This behavior prompted scientists to undertake research into it. ***Wingull.*** Wingull has the habit of carrying prey and valuables in its beak and hiding them in all sorts of locations. This Pokémon rides the winds and flies as if it were skating across the sky. ***Bergmite.*** It blocks opponents' attacks with the ice that shields its body. It uses cold air to repair any cracks with new ice. ***Seel.*** Seel hunts for prey in the frigid sea underneath sheets of ice. When it needs to breathe, it punches a hole through the ice with the sharply protruding section of its head. ***Frillish.*** They paralyze prey with poison, then drag them down to their lairs, five miles below the surface. \columnbreak ***Pelipper.*** Pelipper is a flying transporter that carries small Pokémon and eggs inside its massive bill.

The sight of this Pokémon sleeping on a glacier was mistakenly thought to be a mermaid by a mariner long ago. ***Gyarados.*** When Magikarp evolves into Gyarados, its brain cells undergo a structural transformation.

It's said there's a castle of ships Jellicent have sunk on the seafloor. ***Avalugg.*** Its ice-covered body is as hard as steel. Its cumbersome frame crushes anything that stands in its way. \pagebreakNum ## Cerulean Forest ### Description Stretching between Cerulean City and Saffron City is the wide Cerulean Forest. This is a largely coniferous forest. Not as dense or as dark as the Viridian Forest; however, just as populated with wild Pokemon. There is a 1/20 chance that a trainer may come across a Nanab berry tree in this forest. ##### Distance between Cerulean City and Saffron City: 3 miles ##### Trainer's Likely to be Encountered: 2 ### Hidden Items: The following items can be found hidden in the Cerulean Forest: *3 Great Balls, Ether, Nanab Berries, 3 Revives* ### Pokemon Day Care The Pokemon Day Care allows you to drop off Pokemon that can be bred or trained by the Day Care Couple. Check out the Breeding Supplement for more information on how that might work. ### Connections The Cerulean Forest connects Cerulean City to Saffron City. Halfway between the two, trainer's may come across a short road to AJs Gym. ### Shiny Abra At any point while the trainer's are traveling through Cerulean Forest, if they ask if there is shiny Pokemon in this forest have them make a 1d20 roll. If they roll a 19 or 20, have them encounter a shiny Abra.

It hides in grass and bushes where it eats leaves. ***Pidgey.*** Very docile. If attacked, it will often kick up sand to protect itself rather than fight back. ***Paras.*** Burrows under the ground to gnaw on tree roots. The mushrooms on its back absorb most of the nutrition. ***Ralts.*** It is highly attuned to the emotions of people and Pokémon. It hides if it senses hostility. ***Nincada.*** Because it lived almost entirely underground, it is nearly blind. It uses its antennae instead. ***Cherubi.*** It nimbly dashes about to avoid getting pecked by bird Pokémon that would love to make off with its small, nutrient-rich storage ball. ***Venonat.*** Its large eyes act as radar. In a bright place, you can see that they are clusters of many tiny eyes. ***Teddiursa.*** This Pokémon likes to lick its palms that are sweetened by being soaked in honey. Teddiursa concocts its own honey by blending fruits and pollen collected by Beedrill. ***Woobat.*** While inside a cave, if you look up and see lots of heart-shaped marks lining the walls, it’s evidence that Woobat live there. ***Cottonee.*** It shoots cotton from its body to protect itself. If it gets caught up in hurricane-strength winds, it can get sent to the other side of the Earth. ***Kakuna.*** Able to move only slightly. When endangered, it may stick out its stinger and poison its enemy. ***Buneary.*** If both of Buneary’s ears are rolled up, something is wrong with its body or mind. It’s a sure sign the Pokémon is in need of care. ***Pidgeotto.*** This Pokémon is full of vitality. It constantly flies around its large territory in search of prey. ***Kirlia.*** If its Trainer becomes happy, it overflows with energy, dancing joyously while spinning about. ***Beedrill.*** It has three poisonous stingers on its forelegs and its tail. They are used to jab its enemy repeatedly. ***Ursaring.*** In the forests inhabited by Ursaring, it is said that there are many streams and towering trees where they gather food. This Pokémon walks through its forest gathering food every day. ***Ninjask.*** Its cry leaves a lasting headache if heard for too long. It moves so quickly that it is almost invisible. ***Parasect.*** The bug host is drained of energy by the mushroom on its back. The mushroom appears to do all the thinking. ***Swoobat.*** Emitting powerful sound waves tires it out. Afterward, it won’t be able to fly for a little while. ***Venomoth.*** The powdery scales on its wings are hard to remove from skin. They also contain poison that leaks out on contact. ***Scyther.*** As Scyther fights more and more battles, its scythes become sharper and sharper. With a single slice, Scyther can fell a massive tree. ***Cherrim.*** As a bud, it barely moves. It sits still, placidly waiting for sunlight to appear. ***Leafeon.*** This Pokémon’s tail is blade sharp, with a fantastic cutting edge that can slice right though large trees. \pagebreakNum

***Whimsicott.*** It scatters cotton all over the place as a prank. If it gets wet, it’ll become too heavy to move and have no choice but to answer for its mischief. ***Heracross.*** Heracross loves sweet sap and will go looking through forests for it. The Pokémon uses its two antennae to pick up scents as it searches. ***Lopunny.*** Lopunny is constantly monitoring its surroundings. If danger approaches, this Pokémon responds with superdestructive kicks. \columnbreak ***Pidgeot.*** This Pokémon flies at Mach 2 speed, seeking prey.

Individual Locations
\pagebreakNum ## Xanadu Nursery Xanadu Nursery is a large greenhouse that is home to various flowers, plants, and Pokemon. Among them is a flower that contains Stun Spore. Florinda Showers and Potter are the two owners of the nursery. The nursery itself is shaped like an Oddish and has 8 rooms: The body is one, each foot is a small room, and each of its five leaves are separate rooms. It can be found 1.5 miles north of Pallet Town on Route 1. **NPC Interaction.** Florinda is the owner of Xanadu Nursery, Potter is her assistant. She will give pointers on Pokémon that may Poison or Paralyze your Pokémon. He is an expert in grass type and can give information on what levels grass-type Pokémon evolve at. **Side Quest: Catch Shiny Caterpie.** Potter received a shiny Caterpie from the Safari Zone for safe keeping. However, it escaped from its habitat and is now running loose throughout the Xanadu Nursery. Find it and return it to Potter without using a Pokeball. Potter has a bug net that he will give the trainer(s) if asked for one. ##### Catch Shiny Caterpie To find the shiny Caterpie, the player must search each room thoroughly. The trainer(s) must specifically say where they are searching. Below is a d12 table of all the possible locations that the shiny Caterpie can be hiding. Every time a trainer enters a new room, the DM should roll the d12 to see where the shiny Caterpie is hiding. The trainer(s) get 3 guesses before the shiny Caterpie either moves rooms (d8 table) or hiding spots (d12 table) at the DMs discretion. Here the trainer can do an investigation check with a DC13+. The Investigation check gives the trainer a bonus guess. To catch the shiny Caterpie with the bug net, use the same mechanics for catching Pokemon. The stats for the shiny Caterpie are the same for the regular Caterpie. The only difference is that it is shiny. **Developments.** If the trainer(s) successfully return the shiny Caterpie to Potter, he will gift the Pokemon to the trainer(s). If the trainer(s) do not successfully return the shiny Caterpie, the next time they return to Xanadu Nursery, it will be under seige from a fleet of angry Butterfree who are trying to rescue the shiny Caterpie. **Treasure.** Upon success, Potter will award the trainer(s) ₱500 **Awarding Experience.** If the trainer(s) used Pokemon to capture or find the shiny Caterpie, award each Pokemon 50 XP. \columnbreak **Shiny Caterpie Encounter.** Read the following boxed text to start the encounter when the trainer has found the shiny Caterpie.
After searching for several hours for this Caterpie, it finally pops out from its hiding spot. It shoots out a powerful string shot at you, fully enveloping your legs in sticky string.

He is a haughty, 10 year old who is often seen being followed by a group of cheerleaders. While he is arrogant, he is quite skilled at Pokémon battling. Gary is well known for his quips that seem to sting just the right amount: * Ya snooze ya lose, and you're behind right from the start! * Sometimes I wonder why I was cursed with this talent. * As a trainer, you're dead last! Gary's Starter Pokémon is based off of what the trainer chose as their starter Pokémon. If there is more than one trainer in this adventure, Gary's cheerleaders will join him in battle.

In battle, they are cowardly and unsportsmanlike, and show little to no concern for their own Pokemon. They abuse Pokemon into submission, and kill Pokemon that strategy doesn’t work on. If defeated, Rocket Grunts will attempt to flee. If cornered, they will attack with their whips. If they defeat the player’s Pokemon, they will generally allow the player to flee. If the player refuses to flee, they will attack them and attempt to knock them out. The player will wake up, their Pokemon all stolen, in the nearest town. However, except in the most extreme circumstances, they will not outright kill the trainer(s). Many of Team Rocket’s operations are known by the police, but the police reluctantly turn a blind eye to most of them, deeming intervention to be too dangerous. If people are dying, however, then the police have no choice but to intervene. ### Role Playing Jessie & James Like the rest of Team Rocket, Jessie and James are crooks. However, they probably chose the wrong career to get into. They are typically much less cruel than their colleagues, and treat their own Pokemon relatively well. They look down on other criminals who poach Pokemon or who resort to violence too quickly in their eyes. They consider their standards signs of professionalism, and to some extent skill (operating under a logic akin to “anyone can mug someone, but pickpocketing and con artistry are talents”). In truth, though, their standards are at best a sign of them not understanding what kind of organization they’ve joined; and outright hypocrisy at worst-they abandon their ideals pretty quickly. They idolize their boss, Giovanni, and seek to impress him and rise up the ranks of their organization. They have rather naive views on their own importance in their organization-they are considered very disposable by their superiors. Technically speaking, they do outrank the common Rocket Grunt, but in practice their rank is due to being “kicked upstairs”. Their position as special agents is an excuse to give them “special missions” that are wild goose-chases to keep them away from Team Rocket’s more important operations so that they don’t screw them up-not that they don’t show up often anyway.
Potential Plot Lines
\pagebreakNum #### 1) Viridian Gym The Viridian Gym is in the northeast of the city. When it was open, trainers would go there to battle Giovanni, the gym leader who specializes in ground-type Pokémon. If they succeed they receive the Earth Badge. **Team Rocket.** When the trainer(s) walk towards the Viridian City Gym, the Team Rocket Grunt outside will tell them to get back. If the trainer(s) decide to provoke the trainer by shouting or questioning them, the grunt will attack with their Koffing. For all Team Rocket encounters go to the Potential Plot Lines section. **Development.** If the encounter with the Team Rocket Grun becomes particularly disruptive (aka clouds of smoke, explosions, etc.), Giovanni will make an appearance. His appearance will immediately end the encounter between the grunt and the trainer. Giovanni will compliment the trainer on his/her impressive battling skills and will tell the grunt to stand down. He will say, "I hope to see more of you in the future." Then, he will walk back into the gym ordering his grunt to clean up the mess that they caused. **Treasure.** If the trainer(s) meet Giovanni or defeat the grunt, they will receive ₱250. **Awarding Experience.** If the trainer(s) Pokemon successfully defeat the grunt or meet Giovanni, each will receive 125 XP. #### 2) Sable City Staging Area As the trainer(s) approaches the outpost, the Team Rocket Grunt standing guard will ask to see an ID Card. Since the trainer(s) does not have one, have them roll a DC 12+ for persuasion to see if the trainer(s) can make a convincing story as to why they don't and why they should be allowed to enter. If they are unsuccessful in convincing the grunt, the Team Rocket Grunt will attack with an Ekans. **Developments.** If the trainer(s) defeat the Team Rocket Grunt guarding the entrance to the outpost, the grunt will go running off into the outpost to warn other members of Team Rocket of your presence. If the trainer(s) lose, then the commanding officers, Butch and Cassidy, will come out and ask what all the roucous is. Have the trainer(s) explain what is happening with a DC 13+ for persuasion. If they roll a 13+, Butch and Cassidy are convinced that the group is not up to anything and will answer questions. If they roll lower than 13, Butch and Cassidy will attack with a Mankey and Rattata. If the trainer(s) defeat Butch and Cassidy, Team Rocket will scram leaving documents behind in the outpost that detail their plans for Mt Moon, the plans being that they want to steal all of the Moon Stones and Ancient Fossils found in Mt Moon. The trainer(s) will also find a rudimentary map of Mt Moon. If the trainer(s) are defeated by Butch and Cassidy, Team Rocket will tell them to get lost, but they will also hint at the massive project occurring in Mt Moon. However, they will be very secretive about it. They might mutter something like, "Those pesky kids need to keep their noses out of our mining business," or something snarky and subtle. \columnbreak **Treasure.** * ***Team Rocket Grunt Guard:*** ₱150 * ***Butch & Cassidy:*** ₱500 and information on the Team Rocket Plan in Mt Moon based on a DC10 persuasion roll. **Awarding Experience.** * ***Ekans:*** 100 XP * ***Mankey:*** 200 XP * ***Rattata:*** 150 XP #### 3) Team Rocket in Mt Moon There have been rumors of rare and valuable fossils being found in the deepest parts of Mt. Moon. Team Rocket operatives Jessie and James followed these rumors and confirmed the presence of fossils to their superiors. Team Rocket has set up mining operations to collect fossils, and put Jessie and James in charge of it. Team Rocket has little to no interest in paleontology. Their intention is to sell fossils on the black market to collectors. They’re intentionally destroying many of the fossils they find to increase the rarity of the ones they intend to sell. Similarly, many fossils that are not especially marketable (such as coprolites) are also being destroyed. In Zone 1, you’ll see Jessie and James standing in front of a sign. Read the following aloud:
You see a male and female Rocket Grunt in white clothing speaking to each other. The male says “So what do you think The Boss will give us once we deliver him the fossils?” The female one smiles and is about to answer, before noticing you. She then says “Eavesdropping Twerps!” angrily before her and her partner run off deeper into the cave.
In Zone 15, there is a super nerd named Miguel who snuck past Team Rocket trying to collect fossils for research purposes. He was caught by Jessie and James. When the players arrive, they find him battling the two operatives. Read the following aloud:
You see a Super Nerd battling Jessie and James in front of a strange tracked vehicle resembling a Ryhorn. Jessie shouts “Those fossils are ours!”, to which the Nerd retorts “They belong in a museum!”
Upon seeing the player(s), Jessie and James both enter the Drill Tank. If there is only one player, then they recall their Pokemon. However, if approached by more than two Trainers (including Miguel), they keep their Pokemon out. Their Pokemon move on their own initiative. James is at least a level 2 Grunt and has the following Pokemon: Grimer, Koffing. Jessie is at least a level 2 Grunt and has the following Pokemon: Ekans, Meowth. **The ladder in this zone leads to the exit.**
Potential Plot Lines | Team Rocket
\pagebreakNum ##### Defeating Team Rocket: Upon defeating Jessie and James, the two operatives will jump out of their vehicle. They will both shout “Team Rocket’s blasting off again!” before tossing smoke grenades that blind their opponents and fleeing. After the smoke clears and they’ve fled, Miguel will see two fossils that have been dug up: A helix fossil and a dome fossil. He will offer to give one to the trainer(s), but will keep the other. ##### Losing to Jessie and James: Jessie and James will allow The Trainer to flee if they so choose. If the Trainer does not, they will knock them out and, like with other grunts, steal their pokemon and drop them off at the nearest town (Cerulean). They will continue their operations and steal all the fossils present, denying The Trainer the chance to get their hands on one. ##### Aftermath: Any Grunts that haven’t fled yet will now do so. Jessie and James will report their failure to their boss, Giovanni. Giovanni initially intends to see the player(s) punished, but Jessie and James will persuade him that the player(s) would make excellent Rocket Grunt(s). They will be sent to Nugget Bridge to try to recruit them. The trainer(s), after talking with Miguel, should exit the cave via the ladder in this zone. The ladder will take them to the cave's exit as it opens up to Route 6.

Potential Plot Lines
\pagebreakNum #### Nugget Bridge: Team Rocket Encounter Once the trainer(s) arrive at the end of the Nugget Bridge a Team Rocket Grunt will intercept them and say the following:
Hey, I saw you wipe the floor with those trainers on the bridge. I have a one-time offer for you. Do you want to join the likes of Team Rocket? We could really use your skill and knowledge. You would do really well in Team Rocket and probably climb through the ranks pretty quickly. I could take you right now to our Academy just northeast of here. Who knows you could even become the boss someday, that is if Giovanni ever steps down... I mean. Wait. So do you want to join Team Rocket or not?
If the trainer(s) say yes, the Grunt will immediately take them to the Team Rocket Academy. While there is a parallel campaign in the works tackling this scenario, for now you (the DM) will have to plan out what happens next. If the trainer(s) refuse to join Team Rocket, the Grunt will attack with an Ekans. Regardless if the Grunt wins or loses, it will run off in the direction of the Academy. #### Team Rocket Academy Description The academy is a place where people train to become members of Team Rocket. They develop skills such as stealthy stealing, tracking, and capturing Pokémon as well as devious plan creation. The campus is a large building containing training rooms, showers, bedrooms, a nursery, and a kennel among other things. #### Quest Plot Line There are three potential goals for the trainer(s) to achieve at the Team Rocket Academy. Aside from learning more about Team Rocket's plans, the trainer(s) will also be searching for the: * Stolen Pokemon from Cerulean for Officer Jenny * Stolen DNA Splicer Proto-Types for Bill * Stolen Gym Badges for Kinso Giovanni is currently away from the Academy, so his office will be locked and a key will be needed to unlock it. A back up key can be found in the Boiler Room. The Stolen Pokemon can be found in Giovanni's Office. The DNA Splicer Proto-Types can be found in the Laboratory. The Stolen Gym Badges can be found in Felicia's Room. #### Notable Rocket Members **Jessie & James.** Usually accompanied by a talking Meowth, Jessie and James have been tasked with stealing Pokemon from trainer's if they choose not to join Team Rocket. Currently, they have recruited a trainee named Felicia from Cinnabar. A DC 18 Charisma (Persuasion) check can convince them to share that Team Rocket has stolen some DNA Splicer's to try and fuse two Pokemon together to create the ultimate Pokemon. **Jayden.** Jayden is a sadist with anger problems. He's avoided by other members of Team Rocket for his tendency to have uncontrolled outbursts, and his mistreatment of his Pokemon raises eyebrows even for Team Rocket. **Christopher.** Christopher is a student from Sinnoh. Though he works hard, he struggles at the Academy, and has retaken and failed the qualification test many times. Eventually Jessie and James will attempt to cheer him up by purchasing some noodles. This act of kindness inspires him. Should he fail again, he'll decide to return to Sinnoh and start up a noodle stand. **Felicia.** Felicia is a trainee from Cinnabar. She grew up with a very controlling, stuck up father. Eventually, she got fed up with him, and fled her home to join Team Rocket. On her way, she was intercepted by Jessie and James who took her under their wing as her mentor. **Boomer.** Boomer is a pyromaniac who specializes in using Pokemon with the move Self-Destruct. Typically, he will have as many Voltorb's and Electrode's on him as he can carry or fire Pokemon barring that. He joined Team Rocket after accidentally starting a forest fire, and decided Team Rocket was the best way to flee the law. **Rocket Praetorian's.** The Praetorian Guards protect Giovanni. While in uniform, they wear some form of combat gear as well as a gas mask. At the DM's discretion, they may also be carrying firearms or crossbows, if they prefer. They are some of the most elite Rocket members. They act as a secret police within Team Rocket, weeding out spies and traitors, as well as a special forces unit for Team Rocket's most audacious and dangerous missions. Cold and unflinchingly ruthless, they're some of the most feared criminals in Kanto. They rarely refer to themselves by their actual name, going by numbers, aliases, or codenames instead. They have a nearly cultish devotion ot Giovanni, and seldom even try to think of themselves as individuals, but as extensions of Giovanni's will. They have a blunt contempt for lower-ranking Grunts and Operatives, whom they see as inferior. Typically, there are only three Praetorians stationed in the Academy: One disguised as the guidance counselor, and two disguised as janitor's. Giovanni consistently has 2-4 Praetorian's around him at all times. * ***Praetorian Activity:*** The three permanently stationed Praetorian's are there to wee out possible spies in the organization. If a traitor or a spy is found, the two janitors will wait until nighttime, send a small poisonous Pokemon through the air conditioning units into the subject's quarters. The Pokemon will heavily poison the subject, and the janitors will come by in a few minutes to carry the poisoned victims to the interrogation room. **Giovanni.** Giovanni is the crime boss of Team Rocket. He is the mastermind behind each of Team Rocket's devious plans. His driving goal is to steal and own the most powerful Pokemon in the world.
Potential Plot Lines
\pagebreakNum **Arlo.** Arlo is the chief scientist of the Academy. He is a pompous, self-important elitist who overestimates his intelligence. He looks down on people who use strategies other than intellect to succeed, as well as those who try (in his eyes) to outsmart him. The primary way to get his approval is simple flattery. His most 'successful' students are not necessarily the brightest, but the ones who stroke his ego the best. **Cliff.** Cliff is the Physical Training Leader. He is a large, brutish man who bullies students he perceives as physically weak, and encourages other students to do so. **Viper.** Viper is the Drill Sergeant. He steps in for Cliff when Cliff is away. He only communicates through yelling. He has no idea or context for what his inside voice would sound like. This is because he is partially deaf in both ears. **Sierra.** Sierra is the teacher of the Infiltration Course. She's a self-absorbed femme fatale who tends to treat others dismissively. She'll tend to refer to whoever she's speaking to as 'dear.' #### Wandering Pokemon The Team Rocket Academy has Pokemon Guards patrolling the hallways. Whenever a trainer(s) enter a hallway have them roll a d20. If they encounter something on the table below have them do a stealth/deception check (see Passive Stealth/Deception below). I failed, they enter into battle with the Pokemon Guard.

If a success, they continue to deceive those around them. If a fail, they will be kicked out of the Academy. All future Deception checks will gain a +1 to DC if failed. #### Arrival As the trainer(s) get closer to the Team Rocket Academy read the following: \columnbreak
As you arrive near the entrance of the Academy, you jump behind some trees to put on the Team Rocket outfits that you received from Officer Jenny in Cerulean City. You hear a female voice shout, "Salute Giovanni!" A handful of Team Rocket Members are outside in two parallel lines and it looks like a man is getting into a sleek black car. Before the suited man gets into the car he says, "Thank you! It's been a difficult time for Team Rocket, but we have accomplished much. We've grown from a city gang to an international crime syndicate in just 5 years. In many cities, police are too afraid to deal with us, and we now live in a world where it's safe to walk around in a Team Rocket uniform. "However, there is still much more to be done. The Pokemon Rangers and the International Police still oppose us. There are still other trainers foolish enough to stand in our way. In fact, not long ago, there was an incident at Mt Moon where some trainer defeated our operatives and shut down our activities there." Suddenly, the crowd begins booing. Giovanni expresses annoyance, but continues. "But, we are working on new projects at Silph CO, in Vermillion City, and several other places that will expand our power tenfold. To my old, trusted members, I say this: Your faithfulness has not been forgotten, and your hard work will bring us into a new golden age. To new members, I say: Welcome! With your youth and vigor you let us reach into the stars above." You hear thunderous applause. Giovanni steps into his car and it drives away. The Team Rocket Members shuffle back into the Academy.
As the Team Rocket Members shuffle back into the Academy, the trainer(s) should come back out from behind the tree and make their way in as well.
Potential Plot Lines
\pagebreakNum #### Floor 1 ##### 1) Entrance Lobby This is the entrance to the building. It's protected by 2-4 Team Rocket Operatives wearing white uniforms like Jessie and James. There is a a receptionist named Wendy (a level 3 Team Rocket Grunt herself) sitting at a desk behind bulletproof glass who will give information and call security if necessary. Likewise, their are two doors, both behind gates, at either side of the far wall that lead into the rest of the building. Wendy's office contains a desk with a phone, a computer, and a filing cabinet. Most of the information is mundane stuff about attendance, emergency information, and maps of the building. In order to make it passed the Entrance Lobby, the trainer(s) need to pass the Stealth/Deception Check or be able to talk their way past Wendy as she has the keys to pass the gates into the rest of the building. **DC 10 Stealth/Deception Check.** Upon entering the Lobby, Wendy will ask them to show identification. If successful on the check, she will believe that they have simply lost their badges. If failed, it gets a bit harder for them. **DC 10 Persuasion Check.** If they ask for a map or a general layout of the building, have them make a Persuasion Check. If successful, they get a labeled map of the building. If they do not have a map of the building they will need to explore (Investigate) each room to learn about it. ##### 2) F1 Hallways Upon entering the trainer(s) can see that there are stairs leading to **11) F2 Hallway** behind Wendy's office. To the left is a door that leads to the **4) Counselor's Office**. To the right is an open doorway that leads to a smaller hallway. This hallway has door's that lead to the **3) Bathrooms** and to the **5) Boiler Room**. Opposite the way the trainer(s) entered is a door that leads to the **6) Long Hallway**. ##### 3) Bathrooms These are a set of typical restrooms, maintained by Team Rocket's janitorial services found in the **5) Boiler Room**. There is a closet here containing additional cleaning supplies. ##### 4) Counselor's Office The trainer will be met by a psychiatrist here named **Professor Bark**. He is the official counselor of the Academy. In truth, he is a **Rocket Praetorian** whose job is to psycho-analyze recruits to see how to mold them into ruthless criminals for Team Rocket. He also helps seek out dissenters and spies within Team Rocket to report them to his fellow Praetorian. Bark has an Alakazam that follows him whose psychic powers are used to probe people's minds. **Thieves Tools or DC 20 Sleight of Hand Check.** In his desk there is a locked filing cabinet that can be opened if he and his Alakazam are out of the room. Upon opening, it has a list of confidential psycho-analysis documents, along with a list of recommendations. These are primarily suggestions for how to manipulate students or what types of crimes they might be best suited for. They also include instructions to dismiss certain students, and most certainly, instructions to terminate some. \columnbreak ##### 5) Boiler Room The Boiler Room is where the hot water is supplied. It is also where the janitors hang around until they are needed to clean something. Lots of cleaning supplies can be found here as well as a locked key cabinet. There are two janitors here that are secretly **Rocket Praetorians**. **Thieves Tools, DC 13 Sleight of Hand Check, or DC 10 Strength Check.** If the trainer attempts to open the locked key cabinet, have them perform this check. If successful they will find a key to Giovanni's Office. ##### 6) Long Hallway Upon entering this hallway, the trainer(s) will see three doors. The two on the left head into the **7) Stadium**.

Likewise, they will find a shelve of potions and healing sprays. ##### 8) Cafeteria The Cafeteria serves food most of the day to Team Rocket Grunts. There is a wide variety of food served here, though the noodles are the most popular dish served. There are doors to the **9) Kitchen** behind the serving counter. This is an excellent place for the trainer(s) to attempt to socialize with other students or teachers. Teachers will usually encourage students to socialize with each other rather than with them, but they will be willing to converse with the trainer(s) if they insist. **DC 10 Persuasion Check.** If the trainer strikes up a conversation with any of trainee's, teachers, or other Team Rocket Members in the Cafeteria, here are a few bits of dialogue that the DM can share. * "I heard Felicia stole the newly made gym badges from old man Kinso's workshop! That's pretty challenging considering he almost never leaves his shop." * "Someone the other day, probably one of the operatives, was able to steal Bill's DNA Splicer Proto-Types. I assume they took them to the Laboratory(13)." * "Giovanni is really into powerful Pokemon. I heard someone stole a Diglett and gave it to him as a gift. I want a Diglett." * "Rumor has it there's a Jigglypuff caged up somewhere in this building. I wouldn't want to be the one who sets it free though since it'll probably put me to sleep with its song." * "When Giovanni got into his car, I saw him flash what looked like an SS Anne ticket. I wonder if he's going on the maiden voyage of that new steam liner?"

The two doors to the right open into the **12) Garage**. The door to the left opens into the **13) Laboratory**. The door at the end of the hallway opens into the **15) Physical Training Room**. Next to this last door is a long stairwell that leads up to the 4th Floor. ##### 12) Garage The Garage is across the hall from the **13) Laboratory**. It is where Arlo's students experiment with the construction of Mecha. There is a garage door connected to a ramp so that their vehicles may exit the Academy. ***DC 15 Insight Check.** If the trainer(s) wants to open the garage, have them roll an insight check. If successful they will see a button on the wall next to the door they entered from that will open the garage. (This can be a way out if things go south.) ***Test a Mecha.*** Arlo is skeptical of a Mecha that a trainee created. The trainer(s) will be asked to fight it with one of their Pokemon to see if it's actually good. \columnbreak ___ > ## Rocket Prize Master >*Medium Machine (Steel/Electric-Type), Lawful Evil* > ___ > - **Armor Class** 12 (steel plating) > - **Hit Points** 10 > - **Speed** 5ft walking >___ >|STR|DEX|CON|INT|WIS|CHA| >|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:| >|11 (+0)|15 (+2)|12 (+1)|5 (-3)|10 (+0)|10 (+0)| >___ > - **Saving Throws** Dexterity > - **Skills** Acrobatics +2, Stealth +2 > - **Damage Vulnerabilities** Fighting, Ground, Fire > - **Damage Resistances** Normal, Flying, Rock, Bug, Steel, Grass, Psychic, Ice, Dragon, Fairy > - **Damage Immunities** Poison, Electric > - **Condition Immunities** Poisoned > - **Senses** Passive Perception 10 > - **Languages** Common > - **Challenge** 4 (1100XP) > ___ > > ### Actions > ***Throw Rocket Ball.*** Once per turn, the Rocket Gachat will toss out a Pokeball.

\pagebreakNum ##### 13) Laboratory The Laboratory is here recruits with intellectual prowess are instructed on how to turn their skills to Team Rocket's sinister purposes. There are blue prints of various Team Rocket machines here and other Rocket projects. **DC 10 Perception Check.** On a perception check, the trainer(s) can hear the sounds of whimpering Pokemon underneath a blanket that is covering a number of crates. In these crates are a Diglett, a Togepi, and a Chikorita. To break the Pokemon out, the trainer(s) must succeed on an Animal Handling check and a Strength Check (or have Thieve's Tools). Both checks are up to the DM. **DC 10 Investigation or History Check.** On an investigation or history check, the trainer(s) will look more closely at the blue prints and plans that Team Rocket has assembled on the tables. They will notice that there are fragments of the DNA Splicer Proto-Type that Bill had mentioned if they chatted with Bill. Otherwise it will simply look like important technology that they would want to keep anyway. After the trainer(s) make either or both of the above checks, Jessie and James will come into the room asking what they are doing in there. If the trainer(s) did the Perception check, they should then make a Deception check (*See below*). If the trainer(s) made an Investigation or History Check, they should then make a Sleight of Hand Check (*See below*). **DC 12 Deception Check.** On a deception check, the trainer(s) successfully deceive Jessie and James saying that they are simply making sure the animals are okay and taking them out to train. **DC 12 Sleight of Hand Check.** On a sleight of hand check, the trainer(s) successfully pocket the DNA Splicer Proto-Type fragments without either of them noticing. ##### 14) Infiltration Classroom This is a classroom where students are taught the art of infiltration.

They are small and otherwise spartan. ##### 17) Gozu's Room On the nightstand in this room is a little note. If read it states. "I'm thinking of putting together an elite squad. Keep in touch. -Matori" Otherwise, this room is pretty bare bones. \columnbreak ##### 18) Christopher's Room Christopher's room has posters of Noddles, Jessie & James, as well as a Shiny Metagross on his wall. If a trainer investigates the room, they will find a pack of ramen. When heated in water, the consumer will regain 2d6 HP. ##### 19) Supply Closet **DC 10 Perception Check.** If the trainer enters the supply closet have them make a Perception Check. If successfuly, they will realize that there is a sleeping Pokemon underneath the blanket that is in the corner of the closet. Once removed, they will find a Jigglypuff. This Jigglypuff cannot be tamed with animal handling; however, if it is freed from the cage through a DC 12 Strength check or Thieve's Tools, it will fight alongside the trainer(s) for the remainder of their stay at the Team Rocket Academy. ##### 20) Empty Room This is an empty bedroom. It has no inhabitants. This would be a safe place for the trainer(s) to complete a short or long rest. ##### 21) Bathroom Since none of the bedroom's have a toilet.

Most of them stamped with the words "Mondo - Supplier Extraodinaire!" **DC 20 Investigation Check.** If the trainer(s) investigates the room, they may find a Pokeball with a Ditto inside. ##### 24) Bathroom Since none of the bedroom's have a toilet. This is one of two toilet options that trainee's have. ##### 25) Kaede's Room This room is filled with unlit candles and there appears to be a painting of Grass Pokemon burning on the ceiling. In her nightstand are a number of anti allergy medications. **DC 12 Insight.** If the trainer picks up her journal and reads it, they will find out that she is in fact allergic to Grass-type Pokemon because of their pollen producing abilities. Likewise, her best friend is the gym leader Erika in Celadon City who she frequently visits. It seems as if Erika is completely oblivious to the fact that Kaede is a member of Team Rocket. This appears to be a major internal struggle for Kaede. ##### 26) Supply Closet Upon opening this supply closet, the trainer(s) will see a cache of different types of Pokeballs. **DC 15 Sleight of Hand Check.** A successful check will allow the trainer to select up to two Pokeball's of their choice from the following list: *Great Ball, Nest Ball, Dusk Ball, Heal Ball*

\pagebreakNum # Fusion Pokemon Fusion Pokemon are an artistic concept that is fan-created, but seems to work pretty well when combining it with the Pokemon world. Fusion Pokemon are those Pokemon that are created when you fuse the artwork of two Pokemon together to create a whole new Pokemon. I played around with this idea as a campaign quest line. Below are the potential plot lines you could run with your adventurers. 1. Learn about Fusion Pokemon at Bill's Cottage/Research Lab - Rifure Village * Learn that Silph CO is developing DNA Splicers to fuse Pokemon together * Observe fusion in action 2. Explore Silph CO - Saffron City * Find plans for Super Splicers, find DNA Splicers * Learn about Team Rocket Cloning Device 3. Pokemon Tower - Lavender Town * Save Mr. Fuji from Team Rocket * Learn about Pokemon Mansion and the existence of the Team Rocket Laboratory * Learn about Fusion Pokemon from Mr. Fuji as the original fusion scientist 4. Pokemon Mansion - Cinnabar Island * Learn about the history of Mew and the location of Team Rocket Laboratory * Learn about the connection between Mew as the first Pokemon and Fusion Pokemon 5. Team Rocket Labs - New Island * Find Super Splicers, Cloning Device * Learn that Mew was spliced to make MewTwo #### Rifure Village: Bill's Experiments Upon entering Bill's Cottage, the trainer(s) will be greeted by Bill feverishly working at his computer trying to code the last parts of an experiment. Looking around, the trainers see Bill's desk covered in papers and his computer. They also see different pieces of research equipment set up throughout the room. A door to the right leads to what the trainer(s) can assume are a living area. After realizing that there is a trainer(s), Bill turns around and welcomes them:
\columnbreak
Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! Are you Pokemon Researchers? No? Huh that's odd, we normally get a ton of researchers up here. Oh well, anyway, what are you here for? Interested in seeing my equipment? Yes!? Awesome! Well, this right here is my Teleporter. It's the next step from transporting Poke Balls to Professor Oak. This, once perfected, would allow even trainers and Pokemon outside of their Poke Ball to be transported to Professor Oak in the same way as Poke Balls... Moving on. This area over here is full of samples from Eevee and its different Evolutions. I am absolutely *obsessed* with Eevee! It's my favorite Pokemon! Over here you can see my latest project. I've been collaborating with Silph CO in Saffron City looking at the genetics of Pokemon on how they can be spliced together in a process called Absofusion. I call them Fusion Pokemon! I've been working on the technology to be able to splice two Pokemon together. They're called DNA Splicers. Let me show you how the Absofusion process works!
Bill then proceeds to place two Pokemon, a Clefairy and a Nidorina, next to each other on a raised platform. He hands the Clefairy the DNA Splicer. Both the Clefiary and the Nidorina take hold of the DNA Splicer. After a few seconds, the DNA Splicer starts to emanate light and begins to release a deep vibration that can be felt throughout the cottage. All of a sudden, the trainer(s) are blinded by an explosion of light and color. Around the Clefairy and the Nidorina forms a Twister of what looks like pink and purple DNA strands. In the center of this twister it looks as if the two Pokemon are becoming one. A few seconds later and the twister disappears, revealing a fused Clefairy and Nidorina.
Image credit: Ohmuu
Look at that! It's a Clefrina! Did you see how that worked!? Now its only in development so some of the kinks are still being worked out. But overall it's gotten much safer, especially for the Pokemon. My only problem lately has been Team Rocket. They have an academy near here and they often send some of their trainee's over to try and steal my research, especially the DNA Splicer proto-types. They've stolen a few of them already. If you could go and retrieve them for me, I would happily show you around my labs at Silph CO. in Saffron City.
