I thought so.
Pokemon: The most bountiful of all creatures, the Pokemon were created by the Supreme God Arceus, blessed with abilities from the Pixie Trinity and all connected to the mysterious and fabled Mew.
Broken into many subspecies, Pokemon as a whole see themselves as the rightful inheritors of the world. Many have come to blows with the Humans over land and resources, while still others bound themselves with the Humans in hopes of seeing that which is beyond their known world.
Humans: The second most bountiful species on the planet, next to Pokemon in general. Created after the Supreme God Arceus crafted Pokemon from the fabric of the universe by means that are still unknown, they have spread far and wide across the world.
Short lived things, Humans are naturally curious and moderately intelligent creatures who, unfortunately, are also rather vicious as a whole. They seek to conquer and take control over that which Arceus rightfully gave to Pokemon kind. However, despite this many have shown themselves to be worthy of the trust of the Pokemon, and so they find themselves in the company of those Pokemon who wish to travel the Human lands and beyond in search of adventure, fame and fortune.
Ralts: One of an evolutionary line, the Ralts stay in the villages of their kind, studying hard to make their future.
Kirlia: The next stage of Ralts, the Kirlia are generally split based on gender. While the males are taught hand to hand, bladed combat and the ways of war in the hopes of becoming Gallade, the females study in the ways of ranged combat and defensive measures as they await their becoming Gardevoir.
Curious little things, the Kirlia are the most likely to go out into the world and travel with Humans.
Gardevoir: Primarily composed of females, these Pokemon are every bit as fierce in battle when needed as the Gallade. However, they prefer ranged attacks in the form of using bows and psychic attacks, and can at times force open dimensional gates for defense.
Gallade: Only male, the Gallade are fierce and proud warriors who defend and expand the kingdoms of their kind. They prefer the natural bladed weapons Arceus has blessed them.
Ho-Oh: The legendary bird of fire and Lord of the Heavens, this Pokemon travels the world in the hopes that one day it can roost in a land where Humans and Pokemon are at peace.
Suicune: Herald of Ho-Oh, it was once a Pokemon who died when Humans set fire to Ho-Oh's tower. Reborn, its power is that of purifying water that will then bring life to areas ravaged by the foolish wars of man and Pokemon.
Entei: Herald of Ho-Oh, it was once a Pokemon who died when Humans set fire to Ho-Oh's tower. Its role is that of protector, as it will only stand still in places where a volcano will be born, or where one will erupt, warning all who see it that a disaster is near.
Raikou: Herald of Ho-Oh, it was once a Pokemon who died when Humans set fire to Ho-Oh's tower. Distrustful of Humans, this Pokemon rains down divine punishment on those it sees as a threat; many battles between man and Pokemon have ended in the favor of the Pokemon when Raikou appeared.
Lugia: Lord of the Seas, this Pokemon sleeps below the waves, waking only in times of great distress. Many Water type Pokemon revere Lugia as their protector and patron saint, while many sea going Humans often pray to it in the hopes of their voyages being safe or their expeditions bountiful.
Articuno: The bird of ice, this Pokemon has served the will of Lugia since the beginning of Pokemon kind. As Lugia has looked upon Humans with compassion and mercy for being so alien to the world, Articuno has served the role of protector and savior in the frozen areas of the world, watching over Humans and their companions who travel them.
Zapdos: The bird of lightning, this Pokemon's dual purpose is to protect Humans and Pokemon alike from the wrath of Raikou and to protect electrical Pokemon in general.
Moltres: The bird of fire, this Pokemon serves much the same sole as Entei. It also, at times, helps to preserve land from blazes by soaking up the blistering flames that threaten to engulf it.
Pixie Trinity: Created by the Supreme God Arceus in the beginning, they blessed Pokemon with the gifts of Knowledge, Emotion and Will. While not seen since the creation, they are still worshiped and revered by Pokemon.
Uxie: One of the Pixie Trinity and the giver of knowledge, this tiny Pokemon's eyes are feared by man and Pokemon alike for their ability to wipe ones mind clean. Like its brothers, Uxie is believed to have ascended to the Heavens with Arceus.
Mesprit: The giver of emotion, this Pokemon is both beloved and cursed for its gift. Even some Humans believe that this Pokemon had a hand in creating them, as Humans tend to be very driven and controlled by their emotions.
Azelf: The giver of Will, along with its manipulator, this Pokemon is the most feared of all Arceus' creations. Despite the belief that it ascended along with Arceus, many Pokemon still fear that it could steal away their will for its own purposes.
Groudon: One of the avatars of the world, this ancient Pokemon created all dry land. Currently asleep in the depths of the world, it is said if it is ever awoken, it will bury all civilization.
Kyogre: One of the avatars of the world, this ancient Pokemon created the oceans. Currently asleep in the deepest depths of the waters, it is said that if awoken it will wash away all traces of civilization.
Rayquaza: One of the avatars of the world, this ancient Pokemon created the atmosphere, and currently maintains its balance while soaring at its upper most reaches.
When the others are awakened, it is said that only this Pokemon can save civilization and calm the raging desires of them.
Golems: An order of four Pokemon, these creatures were created at the same time as Humans by Arceus. Their purpose is to watch Humanity, and when the time comes awaken their leader, who will decide the ultimate fate of Humanity.
Regigigas: The King of the Golems, this Pokemon has slept for eons. It is only when its three heralds appear that it will awaken.
When awoken, it will decide if Humanity will be allowed to exist from that point on, or if they will be forced into extinction.
Regice: A golem created from the purest of ice, this Pokemon silently watches Humanity in the frozen wastes, awaiting the day of judgment.
Regirock: Driven by the need to forever replace parts of its body, this Pokemon studies the effects Humanity has had on the world around it, awaiting the judgment.
Registeel: Created from the core of the planet itself, this golem silently watches as Humanity engages in combat, its solid body capable of allowing it to withstand any damage as it enters the field of battle for a closer look. It, along with the others, await the time of judgment.
Dragonian Trio: Created by the Supreme God, these three beings are below only Arceus itself in terms of power and divinity. However, despite being brethren of the highest order, the three are the most bitter of enemies, to the point where even Arceus despairs.
Palkia: The God of Matter. The shaper of the Universe and thus nearly all within it, Palkia fancied itself the grandest of all creation, and in its vanity it went so far as to consider itself mightier than even Arceus.
Dialga: The God of Time, Dialga was the first to be created by Arceus. Fiercely loyal to its maker, it took great exception to the vanity of Palkia.
The two came to blows; an event that even to this day shakes the Heavens to its very core. Despite the pleas of Arceus, the two Gods have fought ever since, their pride, their vanity consuming them to the point where they are beyond reason and logic.
Giratina: The God of Reality, the shaper of all which is possible. Giratina alone had the power to decide the laws the creation of Palkia would follow. Because of this, the God of Matter attempted to sway its mind and heart against Arceus and Dialga, but failed.
Disgusted and ashamed of the way its brothers act, Giratina vanished into a world of its own making, a world in which all was opposite. There it remains, awaiting the day when, perhaps, it can rejoin its kin when they have regained their sanity.
Dream Duo: These two Pokemon came into existence at the exact same moment in which Humanity was birthed. Because of their form and powers, Humans consider them Pokemon... but at the same time, because of their creation the Pokemon consider them little more than powerful, albeit malformed Humans.
Darkrai: Not quite Human and not quite Pokemon, this creature wanders the Human realms, searching for nourishment. When it comes across a Human with a tainted heart, it will visit their dreams and bring out the darkness that dwells within them, turning their dreams into nightmares.
Feeding upon the horrors they see, this creature takes great pleasure in tormenting them, to the point where it may leave a piece of itself, allowing them to never awaken.
Cresselia: The Heavenly Mother of song and prayers, this creature seeks to reward those pure of heart with pleasant dreams. While not very fond of those who have hatred and darkness in their heart, she will none the less strive to end the torments inflicted by Darkrai if she feels that they have suffered enough.
Because of her form, she has become associated with the moon (hence the name Heavenly Mother), and so many Human homes and inns are designed so that moonlight will always shine upon the person (or persons) that sleep within them.Shaymin: When the three great avatars of the world had finished their work, the land was still barren and lifeless. Acreus wept for the creation, a sorrow filling its heart; its tears fell over the world in a rain that lasted for countless days.
From the tears the land was watered, and a single flower grew. As it bloomed, Shaymin emerged. Felling the pain of the Supreme, the small creature filled the world with a bounty of flowers, grass, trees and all other plants, transforming the once barren landscape into one filled with life and color.
Jirachi: A creature filled with the divine power of Arceus, its only mission in life is to grant wishes, no matter what they may be.
Originally meant as a reward for the Pokemon with the truest of heart and ability, this little Pokemon has become little more than an object, sought after by greedy Humans and Pokemon alike in the hopes of gaining all that they desire, and more.
As such, Arceus has cursed the little creature, though through no fault of its own. It now sleeps, awaiting the one thousandth year of slumber. On that day, it will be awoken and wander the world for but a single night.
Any who can find it will have their deepest desire, determined by the large eye on its stomach which can peer into the heart of any being, granted.
Upon the first rays of light of the new day, this small being will once again slumber for another thousand years.Celebi: A small being, this Pokemon was created from a tiny fragment of the God of Time, which broke off during the ever lasting battle against Palkia.
Becoming a Pokemon through means unknown, this small creature has the ability to travel through time, an ability that it has no control over. Whisked away on a whim that it knows not, it has become a silent witness to many major events of history, and of the future that has yet to come.
Almost all of these events, however, are of a terrible nature. Forced to watch as the horrors and trials of man and Pokemon unfold, this creature is unable to interfere.
Oceanic Royalty: In ages past, when Humanity first took the ocean they discovered two palaces, one in the colder northern waters and one in the warmer central waters.
At first curious, they discovered that the palaces were constructed by Pokemon and housed an egg deep within them. A treasure drove, these palaces were created from the finest of materials by the Pokemon who had a near cult like worship for the eggs.
When the stories spread, Humans with a greedy heart came and tried to pillage the palaces. The Pokemon fought back, and a great war erupted on the seas.
It was not until the eggs finally hatched that the wars ended... the two newly born Pokemon sank the palaces, thus removing them from the reach of man.
Manaphy: The Prince of the Northern Sea, this little Pokemon cares nothing for the worship it receives from its followers. It watches Human sea goers with much interest, the hope that it can one day become friends with them beating within its heart.
Phione: Prince of the Equatorial Sea, this Pokemon is much the opposite of its Northern Brother. While not outwardly hostile toward Humans, Phione has a tendency to punish any Water Pokemon who visits the ships that pass through its territory, or save Humans if their ships sink.
?: Many Humans believe that there is a third palace in the Southern Sea with another ruler, but no expeditions have have found one. However, because of the danger of the Southern Sea, few trips have been made, much less planned.Deoxys: Amongst Humans and Pokemon, Deoxys is a mystery. So alien that Pokemon don't fully consider it their kind, but so powerful and mishapped that Humans don't consider it their own.
Stories abound as to how it came to be, from the tale of a Ditto that so loved a Human woman that it tried to take Human form, only to mutate into Deoxys, to it being the result of a Human and Pokemon breeding, an event that so angered Arceus that the child was cursed and turned into Deoxys.
Even to this day, Deoxys is used as a caution to Human and Pokemon alike to keep them from exploring their relationships beyond traveling companions, allies or mere friends.
Heatran: Pokemon born of the will of the world; for every volcano there is a Heatran. Consumed with the care and maintenance of their homes, these Pokemon care little for the outside world.
Their role is that of vital importance, for their homes allow the world to release the vast pressures that build deep below the surface that would otherwise one day tear it open and bring ruin to all.
Many also consider them the guardians of Groudon, or rather, the guardians of the world against Groudon; for if the pressures deep below the surface were to build too far, it is feared that the sleeping avatar would awaken and bring the ruin itself.
If a volcano dies, be it from natural or artificial causes, its Heatran will also die.
Latias: A Pokemon who shows a deep interest in Humans. Using a power that has a connection to both Ditto and the fabled Mew, they will often change themselves into the form of a comely young Human maiden. Using psychic powers, the Latias then gives the illusion of verbal communication as they travel the world with Human companions, experiencing first hand things that no other Pokemon could ever dare dream to.
Bards often tell tales of a Latias falling in love with a Human man, and the tragedy that followed, but no actual cases of such a thing has ever been reported.
Latios: A Pokemon who shows a deep interest in Humans. Using a power that has a connection to both Ditto and the fabled Mew, they will often change themselves into the form of a traveling male Bard or Minstrel.
Using psychic powers, they give the illusion of verbal communication as they tell tales or sing songs, their words reaching the very heart of all who hear it, moving them to tears or filling them with the highest form of joy.
It is said that those who tell the tales or sing the songs of a Human and a Latias falling in love is in actuality a Latios.
Mew: The most fabled of all Pokemon, even more so than Arceus itself, Mew is the focus of more legends than any other. All across the world, in both Pokemon and Human made structures, Mew can be found somewhere, carved into or painted on walls.
No one truly knows why both hold such reverence for the small creature, and very few dare to speculate as to the reason for fear of sparking a bloody reaction.
Mewtwo: A Pokemon with the purest of arrogance, it seeks to prove to all the world and to the Gods that it is the strongest in all creation.
When a city or nation is suddenly brought to ruin, it is said that the cause was Mewtwo. When a war suddenly ends, it is said that Mewtwo brought both sides to the brink of ruination while seeking a challenge.
Only when Arceus is beaten, broken and bowing before it will Mewtwo be satisfied.
Charmander: Even when young, a Charmander is fiercely loyal to those who prove themselves worthy. The stubborn pride that define their later forms begins early in life, as even when playing with their kin they hate to lose.
Charmeleon: A vicious Pokemon, this grown form of Charmander displays incredible pride in its abilities, and a stubborn midnset. They will fight and all takers who come their way with their hard as steel claws and blistering fires from their ever growing flame sac.
If they have found a worthy partner, a Charmelon will defend them to the death.
Charizard: The most stubborn of the line, these Pokemon love to fly around and rain fire upon Humans and Pokemon alike, looking to see if any will stand their ground and fight.
While they do not enjoy it very much, a Charizard who has bonded with a Human partner will allow them to ride on their back. This will sometimes work to their advantage, however, as it means they may fly into battle, or have somebody to help guard places on their body that they could not normally cover.
Bagon: A small Pokemon who is born with the desire to one day soar through the clouds. A Bagon will spend years of its life throwing itself off of cliffs and flapping its stubby arms, hoping against hope that it will somehow fly.
Naturally, gravity takes over and it will slam into the hard rocks below; but this in turn serves to make its skin as hard as steel.
While contact with Humans is very uncommon, if it strikes up a friendship with a person it is likely because they share the same dream of one day flying.
Shelgon: After one too many collisions with the ground, a Bagon will suddenly evolve, and in the blaze of glorious white light will become a Shelgon, whose body is fully covered in a tough armor like, hard as steel bone shell.
When in this form, the former Bagon will not fling itself off of cliffs, but instead focus on the coming change; it can feel its dream will come true in time. To make itself hardy, it will not eat; something that a Human partner may not fully understand.
Many a fight has started over a Human trying to get a Shelgon to eat...
Salamence: A prideful Pokemon, Salamence flies through the clouds, roaring in delight and spraying flames and energy beams in a display to celebrate the fact that it has finally achieved its dream.
If with a partner upon evolving, it will not fly, no mater how much it desires, until its partner agrees to climb upon its back so that they may take to the sky for the very first time together.
Dratini: Very shy creatures, these serpent like dragon Pokemon enjoy living in fresh water lakes and rivers where they can move freely.
Very rarely seen by Humans, and even more rarely do they befriend them; Dratini are more readily willing to bond with women than men. When they do befriend a Human, they love to play in the water with them, splashing about and swimming.
Dragonair: While still a shy Pokemon, the Dragonair are much more outgoing than their Dratini kin.
No longer content to simply stay in water, they are able to take to the skies and move freely, as if swimming through the air. They travel the lands as they soar high in the sky, feeding a curiosity that had previously been suppressed by their shyness and fear.
If they have bonded with a Human, they tend to stay near the side of their friend, which can cause some troubles if the person in question doesn't enjoy traveling very much.
Dragonite: A friendly, intelligent and very benevolent Pokemon, it has overcome its shyness due to the knowledge that, while it doesn't enjoy violence, it can very well handle any challenges that come its way.
Swift and agile, Dragonite's soar through the skies and over the seas, watching for any who would need assistance. And if they have bonded with a Human, they will do whatever that person asks, so long as it doesn't involve wanton destruction or mindless violence.
Larvitar: Their main interest is eating, as they have a powerful urge to grow and become strong. When a mountain vanishes, it's likely due to the fact that a Larvitar has eaten it.
This fact, however, can produce much friction between the small Pokemon and a Heatran, as the little creature may attempt to eat into the volcano in which the Heatran lives.
Pupitar: having eaten vast amounts of metals and rocks, the Larvitar encases its body in a steel shell. Digging deep into the ground, this Pokemon awaits the the final stage, and as such they are nearly as rarely seen as Dratini.
Tyranitar: Vicious, cruel and very proud, this monster of a Pokemon is nearly as arrogant as Mewtwo, and will not back down even if Arceus itself stood before them.
When angered, they have the power to unleash an earthquake whic will ravage the land, killing Human and Pokemon alike without concern or care.
Being such vicious and arrogant beings, these Pokemon do not enjoy the company of Humans, although some have managed to atleast get a Tyranitar to tolerate their presence.
