Johto - Not long ago...
The region has suddenly changed.
The Pokémon Virus (AKA Pokérus), previously known as a very coveted condition that worked wonders on a Pokémon's training, has mutated.
The Virus started to affect the minds of the infected, making them go berserk and turning them into crazy fighting machines. The infected Pokémon attacked every non-infected lifeform on sight, be either human or creature. Pet Pokémon rebelled against their Trainers, Coordinators, Friends, etc.. Wild Pokémon attacked anyone unfortunate enough to pass by.
At first, the whole ordeal was treated as a non-issue. With authorities saying that '"Everything is under control. It is just a matter of time before we solve this situation."'. However, due to the highly contagious nature of the Pokérus and constant encounters between the infected and non-infected, the previously rare Virus managed to spread. After a drastic increase in their numbers, the infected decided to take the fight to their enemy.
It was at this moment that the non-infected knew all 'control' has been lost.
Buildings burned down and cries were heard as the infected raided city after city. The non-infected managed to put up a fight, but the Pokérus has made the infected stronger. In the end, they were defeated.
Johto - Two years later...
A giant, transparent dome made of some unknown, but indestructive material covered the desolated region, preventing anything or anyone of passing through.
Today marks exactly one year since Johto has been put under quarantine. The region has became some sort of 'Ecological Disaster Zone'. There are still non-infected in there. Some are just Civilians trying to survive. Some are Researchers doing their job in hopes of finding a cure, others are Police Officers and Nurses trying to help their fellows. Even the Military is there as the last line of defense.
However, all of them have the same ultimate goal: To destroy the BRAIN.
Cherrygrove City - Day 1
12:35pm
"Originally known as the 'Goldenrod Radio Tower', the BRAIN is a building which houses the center of the infection. The BRAIN sends altered radio waves to all of the Pokérus infected beings, making them go berserk." A soldier explained, showing a series of pictures of the Radio Tower in a big screen. The building, however, was covered with bits of some sort of pinkish red sludge, making it look like the whole structure was made of flesh. "Shut down the BRAIN and the whole infection body will fall along."
The soldier then sighed. "As simple as this sounds, however, the BRAIN is unreachable. There's some sort of protective barrier of unknown energy around Goldenrod City and we can't get past it." The screen then started to show pictures of Goldenrod City in bird view. The ravaged city was surrounded by a black force-field.
"To shut down that barrier, we must destroy all the NERVEs." The screen changed to show pictures of small buildings covered in some sort of black sludge. "Originally known as the 'GYMs', the NERVEs are buildings which holds the protective barrier around Goldenrod City. Inside the NERVE, there's the HEART." The screen then started to show pictures of the so-called HEART. "The HEART is a black blob of who-knows-what that holds the NERVE together and sends pulses of energy which attract other infected. Destroy it, and the NERVE will die." The screen then turned off.
"To sum it all up. Just destroy the HEARTS, to destroy the NERVEs, to destroy the BRAIN. Questions?"
"Sir, how did you get those pictures?"
"With plot devices, private."
"Plot wha-"
"Any more questions?"
"But wha-"
"No? Then good luck out there, people. Dismissed."
