📖Story

Begin your journey in the Unova region, a land far from previous regions and inspired by New York City. As you pursue the Pokémon League, you'll encounter N, a mysterious young man who can speak with Pokémon and believes they should be liberated from trainers. His organization, Team Plasma, seeks to separate humans and Pokémon. Discover the truth behind N's ideology, the legendary dragons Reshiram and Zekrom, and the real mastermind behind Team Plasma's plans in one of the series' most narrative-driven stories.
