Summary
Passion is such a fickle thing. One moment, their hearts were filled with a raging inferno as they chased their dreams; the next, mere embers of something that once was as a cold reality set in.
Nemona, an uncrowned champion that chased greater heights with zeal now finds that it is lonely at the top and her will to continue is ever-fading. Arven, a son once loved and cherished, wants to save his only remaining family but now lacks the strength or support from others to. Penny, a vigilante who united those who fought for justice must now turn the hammer of justice on her former comrades, if she can muster the will. And a young man who moves back to Paldea, drifting along aimlessly in life, who seems to have known what it was like to chase a dream with reckless abandon.
As spring begins anew in Paldea, these four small embers that once roared brightly cross paths. With a bit of luck, newly formed and to-be-tested friendship, and no shortage of effort as they walk the long road ahead of them, the passion for the things they once held dear may burn strongly yet again.
An adaptation of Violet with a focus on intertwining the otherwise three disconnected storylines and fleshing out the Paldea region.

Summary
Ashley Ketchum’s alarm clock blared like a wild Jigglypuff concert gone wrong. She groaned and slapped at it blindly, missing twice before finally smacking it silent with a loud clunk. The sunlight was merciless, creeping in through the gap in her curtains and landing right across her face. "Ugh, Sun! Take a hint," she mumbled, yanking her blanket over her head. For a split second, she entertained the brilliant idea of using Dig to escape deeper under the covers. Her toes wiggled as if prepping for action, but her brain kicked in a moment later.
Today wasn’t just any day—it was the day.
Her eyes shot open like a Staryu’s gem, and she bolted upright in bed, her blanket flying off her like a Togekiss taking off. “Today’s my first day as a trainer!” she squealed, practically vibrating with excitement. She threw her legs over the side of her bed and stood up so fast she almost tripped on her Pikachu-patterned pajama pants.

Melody Abreo, a 16 year old who's family has just recently moved from Kalos to Hoenn, is trying to make the best of a not so great situation. With Kalos restricting Pokemon Journeys and Trainer Licenses to only those above 16, Melody has been unable to acuire a Pokemon of her own. She would have received one as part of Kalos's Starter program, but Hoenn's starters can only be handed out to sponsored trainers, which Melody certainly is not.
She must set out on her own to challenge the Gym Circuit, to prove everyone else wrong, and the Contest Circuit, because she cannot seem to shake the desire to become a top Coordinator.
But things are brewing in the background. Mysterious organizations by the names of Team Magma and Team Aqua both seem to be working towards something sinister. And yet, rather than allies, or even acquaintances, both Teams seem to have a hatred of each other, constantly butting heads.
As both groups step ever closer to their goal, heedless of those they drag into the middle of their feud, Melody must figure out how to stop the destruction to come, continue to challenge the Circuits, and form timeless bonds with her team all at once.
