Did we want to start bouncing around ideas for the World Contest? :)

Maybe something to do with the environment/setting/inhabitable of Hendo? That was a theme I noticed talked on a bit in the description. We definitely don't have to stick to what's written in the first post.

Yesyesyes ideas. I envision something using neutral, natural colours (green/yellow/brown or something) with some kind of emblem in the center... gonna need more thoughts on this one!

How about a brown poke ball-shaped design over a predominantly green background, but with a black zigzag "fissure" across the diagonal of the background. This just randomly popped into my head fully formed haha

Hendo Today

For your regional news updates.

Today we bring you a brief piece on PokéTech - the instantly successful business responsible for the increased economic development of the East. PokéTech formed from the world renowned Pokétch Company - since its break the company has flourished in Hendo, providing many people with jobs and contributing to the development of Vacan City. It's with thanks that we welcome their current CEO, Hector "Magic" Warren.

Hello sir, welcome to the studio.
Why thank you, its an honor to be here.

I hear you've got some news for us today?
Oh yes, terribly exciting news I think. I'm here to announce a brand new device for citizens all across Hendo.

Wow! Please tell us more!
Well, as you may know the Pokétch, brought over from Sinnoh, has changed the lives of many. Our new product, however, is clearly going to surpass this. What I'm talking about here is a new, innovative design capable of infinite more possibilities: The PokéLive.

I know the people reading this can't see - but wow it is amazing.
Would you like to try it out?

The screen... it seems so reactive. It's seems like a Pokétch but, well it feels entirely new. This is superb..
Yes - you've never seen anything quite like this. The PokéLive device is going to change the lives of everyone in Hendo.

It seems we have some questions coming in on the live stream, shall we take a look? First up is Aroma Girl Claudia, who asks "How much does The PokéLive cost?"
Oh a very reasonable price. We're looking at around 75,000₽.

You heard it here first folks! Only 75k₽, so very reasonable. Let's head back to the live stream, shall we? We've got Youngster Matt writing in, "75k₽ is ten times the national-"

..
..

It seems we've had a technical error. Sorry Matt! Looks like you'll have to message in again another time.

Sorry to keep you for so long, Mr. Warren. We all look forward to your devices hitting the shelves soon.

It's the yen kanji, I didn't notice I have a ₽! Haha.

 

[esperance]

I want one of these PokéLive devices. Do we gym leaders get paid well?

Generally, yes! I think my next news update will be about the economic climate. It'll also come from the west side of the region rather than the east...

Town/City details coming tomorrow!!



Anyone who helps make an emblem gets a free* PokeLive device.

Exploring Hendo part 1

I guess you'd like to know about Hendo, huh? Well I'm your guy! I've photographed all the best sites in the region, I'm pretty knowledgeable. Tell ya what, let me tell you a bit about Eastern Hendo. Damn... that place is beautiful, its such a shame, yanno?

Eastern Hendo
East of the fissures is pretty rough these days - I mean the people manage, they're hardy over there, but they're pretty much on their own. They don't get much support from the rest of the region, well no official support, if you get me so money is always tight. You've got a few big towns though, they're still doing alright despite the lack of trade from the rest of Hendo. I hear they're working on a new tunneling system, so maybe things will pick up soon.

The biggest settlement on the east side is Greenleaf Town. It's pretty picturesque really - I mean they've got a beautiful river running through their town. The town works closely with the river, it's their main connection to the shore and ocean after all. To the north of the town is Greenleaf Forest. The townspeople take good care of it, and as far as forests go its a pretty safe place! Ahh, those Easterners know how to do things.

Further down river is Newbrook Village - the place has only really been liveable these past few years, some people didn't want to live so close to the cracks in the ground so moved to the edge of the region. The Gym Leader of Newbrook, Ella, is a young girl who is eager to please. She has a strong sense of justice, but would protects her small village above all else.

Blackore Town is the best connected of the three, with a relatively safe passage across to the west. It is connected to Greenleaf Forest through an ever-improving network of tunnels, designed to allow trade to flow back into Greenleaf and Newbrook, however progress is slow. The people of Blackore are hard working citizens, they specialise in working the land - whether that's mining, studying the earth or growing crops for the people.

Us humans are nothing compared to them..."
