Baishi Takuma, from Shichibai City, dreams of becoming the strongest Fire-type Pokemon master. To make that dream come true, Takuma sets off to challenge the Unova League.
Unfortunately, along the way, he encounters Team Plasma, who are plotting against the entire Unova region. After suffering a crushing defeat at Zekrom's hands, Takuma realizes just how weak he is. He bids farewell to his family and friends and decides to travel to other regions, challenging their local Pokemon Leagues to train himself.
After traveling for a while,
he begins to question his life. In a way, he has achieved his goal of becoming stronger, but why does he keep running into one situation after another that stops him from completing even a single Pokemon League challenge?
At last, Takuma packs his bags and returns to his hometown. There, he finally completes the Unova League challenge and successfully takes up a position as one of the Elite Four. Tears of joy stream down his face.
Reader's guide:
1. The male lead is a native of Unova. The events involving Team Plasma make him realize his shortcomings, so he travels to other regions before collecting all of Unova's badges. No romance.
2. Includes original worldbuilding. Pokemon can learn more than four moves, but moves have different levels of proficiency. Moves that aren't used and practiced regularly may grow rusty or be forgotten.
3. The setting only goes up to Generation V, with no X and Y or Sun and Moon, so there will be no Fairy type or Mega Evolution.
4. This is a travel story.
Theme: Train hard and protect everything.
