The Yōko Region (Revamped!)
Backstory
背景故事
The young warrior had finally awaken. He hadn't been so far from the village before his long journey of enlightenment, but he found himself strolling through the farmlands, to crossing rivers, and even to scaling mountains. He had very little resources and worn out clothes, practically the only thing keeping him strong was his loyal partner, Eevee. Eevee had helped him kept his master awake from his weakness, as the duo pressed on. Soon the clear night sky got cloudy, and rain began to pour, followed up by lighting. If they weren't careful, the wind would cause rock avalanches, and ultimately tie into their own downfall. The rain wasn't letting up. But they had to keep going, for his road to enlightenment was ahead.
The only moment the young warrior could recall before being passed out: they soon sought their sight upon ancient scriptures in a peculiar rock formation. That was when they saw it -- the thunder and lighting were closer and louder, as he soon saw what it seemed like a gigantic rainbow winged bird. There was then a gigantic cry from the bird, as it then released its powerful sacred flame in the distance, almost making the duo lose their balance, as the rocks crumbled. He didn't know where the bird was aiming towards, but as soon as he knew it, the bird flapped its monstrous wings and flew off towards the distance. The warrior couldn't keep his eyes open as he went to a state of unconsciousness then, the only thing he remembered, the rainbow feathers from the bird glowing once again anew.
The Yōko Region
該地區洋子
Reminiscent of a feudal Chinese society, The Yōko Region had always admired tradition above all else. It's on a fairly large island separating it from the rest of the world's ideals and traditions, as the people in the region always stuck to their own beliefs. Lakes and small rivers greatly inhibit this region, with the towns and cities built around most of them. Their towns and cities are generally fairly big, housing loads of shops, and trading opportunities for tourists, and traders from other regions to enjoy. As such, The Yōko Region truly flourished into a society that is popular and well known worldwide, as it's sole purpose was to help others. This wouldn't be possible without their royal court, led by their benevolent Queen, and her two right hand, and left hand vessels.
Yōko Tradition
傳統洋子
Dating from hundreds of years ago, the people in the Yōko region always admired the pokemon Eevee and the pokemon Eevee can evolve into. That's because long ago, the region of Yōko was barren. It was believed that a great hero used the power of Eevee and the members of the Eevee evolution family used their powers to summon a great, legendary rainbow bird pokemon in order to make the land flourish with vegetation, water, and thus, more pokemon were able to make Yōko their habitat. So, it's believed that owning and Eevee, or any branch family member would make a person very lucky in their life. not everyone believed this tale in Yōko, but Eevee was still beloved by all the same, as proven by their annual Eevee festivals, celebrating Eevee and its branch pokemon.
The people in the region always lived simple lives, whether it be working in their farmland, being together with their own family and pokemon, or working alongside their trade market. It was simple, but its simplicity was beloved by all. Yōko is a neutral region, so it does not participate in wars or other battles, but prefers to resolve their problems and differences peacefully, in arts of many competitions and games. So every couple of months or so, they invite many other regions to participate in their events. This was called, the Elemental Olympics.
The women in the region are seen wearing kimonos most of the time, and the men wore their chinese traditional-styled jackets but are able to wear their modernized clothing just the same. The region only resembled a feudal chinese society see, so while the citizens admired tradition, they are still knowledgeable about modernized technology. Some people admired modern technology, others feared it... mostly only older people are shaking their heads at the modernities, while the younger generation adored technology in order to connect and interact with others, even to improve their daily lives.

The Yōko League

The league works a bit differently than normal affairs: their towns/cities hold a battle master who gives symbols to pokemon trainers who successfully defeat them. There are 5 medallions in all:
The Fire symbol, or the medallion of the flames. This symbol represents the sacred flames that re-shape the world, as well as the dangerous flames that burns down anything in sight. It's been told that those who has this medallion, gains the ability to control the powerful flames.
The Wood symbol, or the medallion of the trees. This symbols represents the spirits who created plant and forest life, who brought their green fields. A rumor tells that those who possessed this medallion, gains eternal life.
The Water symbol, or the medallion of the rivers. This symbol represents the flowing water of the lakes, rivers, and oceans, and how they help each living being sustain their own life. Although it's not been confirmed, those who gets this medallion has the power to heal an injured soul.
The Earth symbol, or the medallion of life. This symbol represents the land, and unparalleled determination. Only the most disciplined and responsible of people can hold this symbol.
The Metal symbol, or the Medallion of Energy. Spiritual energy is what this symbol represents. This energy is more recognized by shamans, who use this magic to unravel the unknown, and control things to their will.
The Royal Court
The Royal court members are basically the governors of the region. They watch over everything to protect and help nourish the kingdom. Led by their Queen, of course.
1. Queen Lynn (Dragon's character)
2.
3.
The Battle Masters
As mentioned, the Battle Masters are the most powerful trainers in the region, arguably. Why do people travel to defeat them? Money, fame, experience, and so on. Those who gain all 5 symbols are considered the Elite of the Elite.
