Summary
Every Pokemon Trainer learns the same things: A Pokemon can faint an infinite number of times and it will still be fine. You can catch however many Pokemon you want in any area. Pokemon levels can go up almost infinitely, the only limit being your own patience. You can use as many items as you have with you in any battle. But not here. In this world, Pokemon don’t faint. They die. As soon as you find a new Pokemon in any area, all other Pokemon in that area can’t be caught, even if you don’t catch the one you run into. If a Pokemon’s level exceeds that of the next gym leader’s highest, that Pokemon must be benched until after you beat said gym leader. Other trainers can use items in battle, but our trainer cannot. Also, if at any point our protagonist loses a battle, meaning that all of his Pokemon faint, that’s it. He must throw away his badges, release all but one of his Pokemon, and his journey is over.
