Pokemon Light and Pokemon Dark are main series Pokemon games set in the Intimas Region.
Plot[]
The game starts in Adventurst Town in the player's room, which starts a cutscene showing the player with the evolved forms of all the Intimas starters, and catching a bunch of Pokemon. The player wakes up, and gets dressed (The plater chooses what they wear), and eventually visits Professor Pine in his lab, where the player chooses one of the three starter Pokemon, Laproise, Heasle, or Seedling. After the selection, Professor Pine requests a battle, and uses the starter Pokemon with the type disadvantage. No matter the result of the battle, the Professor gives the player their own Pokedex, and five Pokeballs, and the player starts off on their journey.
Right before exiting Adventurst Town, you come across two men using their Pokemon to fight against a young boy. The player fights against the thugs, and two shadowy figures assist you. The men run away, and the shadowy figures are revealed to by your two neighbors, Daphne and Zeke. It is revealed that the player is part of Team Silence. The other members take you underneath a bridge, and inform you that they are wanted by the police. The meeting is cut short when they hear someone nearby, and the player continues with their quest.
The player enters Route 1, and eventually comes across a ghost-like figure resembling Gracie, the Resperto Gym Leader. After she finishes speaking, she disappears and a Growth Berry is found on the ground. The player battles all the trainers in the route, and eventually enters Resperto City, where his newely introduced twin brother or sister depending on the player's gender, battles the player. After the player wins, they continue on with their journey.
Over the course of their journey, the player will have numerous encounters with the other members of Team Silence, and eventually the Team is discovered by the player's sibling, and eventually the sibling joins. The plot comes to a head, sometime after the 9th Gym, when the player and Team Silence are transported to the Spirit World. They player and Team Silence try escaping, but evenutally everyone in Team Silence gets their life force absorbed, thus becoming ghosts. The player hides, and finds Gracie's human body, and the player eventually defeats some of the ghosts, but the rest all escape to the human world. The player comes across the whole Intimas League and Elite Four battling the ghosts, and the day is saved when the the Intimas Champion teams up with Gracie and the Player to defeat the rest.
From then on, the player continues its Intimas journey, and defeats the final two gyms. With another Team Silence encounter, Daphne informs the player about the Elite Five, and the player heads off to Libertas City. Once the player gets there, they battle the Elite Four, and enters the hall of Champions, and finds out that the Champion is absent. Terrence sends the player Inviron Town to look for Vincent. The player finds Vincent in the Botanical Garden, admiring the nature. The player convinces Vincent to return as his duty of Champion, and the player must defeat the Elite Five again, and finally beat the champion. Vincent leads the player to a secret room in the Hall of Champions, as the player and their Pokemon are added.
After the main plot of the game has been completed, many inaccessible parts of Intimas, such as the Intimas Islands, will be unlocked. When the player returns to Adventurst Town, the whole town throws them a party for becoming the Champion. The player's mother gives the player several new clothes, and the player leaves to find the rest of Team Silence. The player finds them in an alley, being arrested for stealing Pokemon, when they were actually returining the Pokemon, which were stolen by thugs. The player tries to clear up the confusion, but the police doesn't let them go without proof. The player eventually finds the real thugs, and Team Silence is released.
