Gold is a somewhat unhinged pok?mon master that ends up in Gensokyo during an incident called 'The Great Danmaku War'. Hundreds of Youkai are rebelling, refusing to follow the danmaku rules the Hakurei shrine and Yukari set and are attacking humans and those that try to stand in their way. The Hakurei shrine still stands but Reimu is having trouble dealing with all those bothersome youkai by her lonesome. She has some help, but currently most peaceful youkai already have their hands full protecting their own zones from these violent instigators.
When Gold enters the world of Gensokyo he begins to sense something calling to him, something deep in his soul is fighting to reach the surface. What were those urges? What were these odd cravings? Hopefully he will find someone that can give him some answers...
This is...
Gotta catch 'em all, The Great Danmaku War

...It might become quite the feat to post the story here considering I always align my quests to fit each forum setup, but here I can't even put stuff in spoiler tabs and the hard image limit, demand of image links and so on might create too much work to be worth it (I am in university so my time isn't limitless). Nevertheless, I will give it a shot and see if I can't get this to look at least semi decent... even with lower quality images... if I can even post those with the 150kb limit ^^,
I will always link to the higher quality version at the places they should be viewed. Think about this as a blend between a novel and a graphic novel where the images help as much immersing you into the story as they are part of the story.
Oh and I will create an additional post after this one that describes Gold's team, but considering I don't have access to tabs of any kind here you can feel free to skip that post if you don't feel like reading all of the pok?mon's characteristics, statistics and personalities.
In fact, I am also going to link to the original quest here, keep in mind it is on a NSFW FORUM so you need an account to be able to see/access it: https://forum.questionablequesting.com/threads/gotta-catch-em-all-the-great-danmaku-war-pok%C3%A9mon-1st-3rd-gen-touhou-quest.2475/ (https://forum.questionablequesting.com/threads/gotta-catch-em-all-the-great-danmaku-war-pok%C3%A9mon-1st-3rd-gen-touhou-quest.2475/)
If you want to read it in its story form, part of it is already available in SFW setup on: https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/threads/the-great-danmaku-war.47042/ (https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/threads/the-great-danmaku-war.47042/)
Personally I will always recommend the Original Quest above the Story Version as I do prefer uncensored material over censored one. Plus, besides occasional flirting and dirty jokes nothing NSFW has actually occurred in the quest at this point.
Protagonist and companions
Name: Gold
Image: https://i.imgur.com/GxRG1jj.jpg (https://i.imgur.com/GxRG1jj.jpg)
Sex: Male
Health: All'right!
Mentality: In battling mood as always
Description: Pok?mon League Champion 2 years running, Gold is somewhat of a celebrity in the pok?mon world, particularly in Johto and Hoenn. He has a charismatic if a rather intense personality. Preferring to stay on the move, never stopping in one place for too long.
----
Early in his career he developed a method that allowed him to 'link' up with his pok?mon via . Allowing him to see through their eyes and guide them without saying a word, increasing the team's effectiveness and teamwork immeasurably.
The drawback was that the pain and injury inflicted on them he would feel as well. For most trainers that would undoubtedly deter them from using it. But not for Gold. He saw this as even greater reason for using it. Since how were you supposed to understand your comrades if you weren't willing to experience the same things they did? One for All, All for One.

Pok?mon Companions
Omastar:
Level: 88
He is a sky-blue Ammonoidea Pok?mon, with several tentacles and a pale yellow, helix spiralled shell with spikes on its back. Its shell constantly grows, getting heavier over time and thus limiting its mobility. Several sharp spikes line the shell's midsection, spanning from its forefront to just a little towards its back. The shell's hem has two circular indents where Omastar's eyes come out. Its eyes have yellow sclera, with vertically-slit pupils. It has an oval mouth with a four-way jawed, fang-like beak. Once caught, it never lets go of prey, immediately biting down on its victim with immense power.

I am the mighty H. O. Omastar! Bow before me... or suffer the consequences!
I am a resilient and powerful being of importance much greater than you humans can comprehend. In my younger days, ages past, I spend great deal of time studying you, learning your culture and traditions. Soon I even learned how to speak your crude and simplistic language. You should be grateful that I did. If I hadn't, I might have decided to end your miserable race. When Gold caught me, I suspected that he was sent by one of the organizations whose aim is to end my my rule. But I was grateful when it turned out that I was wrong. Gold is a great being, don't even try to compare him to the rest of you pitiful humans!
Omastar, or H. O. Omastar as he prefers to call himself* is a lone survivor of the now extinct Omanyte and Omastar species. How he has managed to survive 'till now is unknown but his massive size may play a factor in it. Unlike most known remains of Omastars, H. is over 2.3 meters in height, dwarfing all found remains of his race up to date. Due to his size he is much stronger than a normal omastar would be. Not much is known about his past, as when asked he will only reply by saying "You humans wouldn't understand.". Although suffering from 'Delusion of Grandeur' he is quite adept at various fields of combat. He has likewise displayed surprising knowledge about other pok?mon... even species that have only been recently discovered.
Stats:
HP: 273
Attack: 220
Defense: 360
Sp.Atk: 290
Sp.Def: 264
Speed 150
When in combat he prefers to tire his opponents out. Enduring their onslaught until he sees an opening, wherein he will strike surprising ferocity. His attacks mainly consist of using his own body to crush his foes but he has been known to use both water and ground types attack if his foes survives more than two of his normal attacks.
Carrying: Life Orb
*He has been known to call himself: Lord Helix, The Almighty One, The Ruler of the Ocean and... Arthur
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Absol:
Level: 84
Absol is a quadruped, mammalian Pok?mon with a dark blue to gray body covered in white fur. It has a ruff around its neck and chest and a tuft on the top of its head adorned with a single blue-black oval. It has a feline face with almond-shaped, red eyes, a scythe-like tail, and a sickle-shaped horn on the side of its head. Its broad feet are equipped with three claws each, and spikes protrude from the heels of its hind legs and the elbows of its front legs.
Image: https://i.imgur.com/VWMQmJh.png (https://i.imgur.com/VWMQmJh.png)
Absol lives in the mountains far from civilization, and rarely ventures down from its alpine home. Using its horn, Absol is able to sense even subtle changes in the sky and the land to predict when a natural disaster will occur, and will try to warn people when one is approaching. This often has the unfortunate effect of Absol itself being blamed for the disaster.
Adamant and serious. Absol will follow Gold's commands to the letter. She is one of Gold's first pok?mon and is a paramount member of the team. After Feraligatr's death she took it upon herself to prevent such disasters from happening again. Using her keen senses to keep both Gold and his comrades out of danger. She is distrustful of humans other than Gold and will actively try to scare them away.
Stats:
Hp: 284
Attack: 332
Defense: 182
Sp.Atk: 183
Sp.Def: 163
Speed: 190
Her methods are direct and brutal. From the start she will aim to take out her foe with well placed attacks that cause the foe to lose his balance and concentration. Her natural immunity against psychic attacks also means that she has seen a lot of action against psychic types. Perhaps due to that, she instinctively knows when someone nearby is using such abilities, be it human or pok?mon.
Carrying: Dread Plate
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Charizard:
Level: 84
Charizard is a draconic, bipedal Pok?mon. It is primarily orange with a cream underside from the chest to the tip of its tail, which burns with a sizable flame. Charizard has a long neck, small blue eyes, raised nostrils, and two blunt horns protruding from the back of its rectangular head. There are two fangs visible in the upper jaw when its mouth is closed. Two large wings with teal undersides sprout from its back, and a horn-like appendage juts out from the third joint of each wing. Charizard's arms are short and skinny compared to its robust belly, and each limb has three white claws. It has stocky legs and cream-colored soles under its feet.
(https://i.imgur.com/0UcPAlJ.png)
Rash to the point of fault. Gold's Charizard is as close to being a powerhouse all by himself. And he would be one if it wasn't for his tendency of rushing into battles blindly, making him easy prey by the more cool and composed opponents. Nevertheless, this imposing creature is one of the largest of his kind. Standing good 3.2 meters (excluding his tail). The reason, or perhaps the cause of his unusual size is due to him being an Alpha-type charizard. He is hot heated and extremely territorial and once he has marked an area or creature as his he will protect it to his death. (So far the only thing he has marked is one of his temmates, Absol)
Stats:
Hp: 304
Attack: 223
Defense: 207
Sp.Atk: 298
Sp.Def: 190
Speed 270
A very aggressive fighter, Charizard relies on his devastating firebreath and air superiority to take down his foes. His fiery breath is capable of melting boulders, massive glaciers, and burn whole forests if not kept in check. His claws are also extremely sharp. Capable of cutting through thick steel with relative ease.
Carrying: Choice Specs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Latios:
Level: 84
Latios is a bird-like, dragon Pok?mon with an aerodynamic body. The lower half of its body is blue with jet-plane wings and fin-like feet. It has a red triangular marking on its chest. By tucking its wings and forelimbs, it can fly faster than a jet (but has difficulty reacting to objects flying in his directions while he is at that speed). It has white and blue arms that can be tucked into its body. The upper-half of its body is white. It has triangular ears and a blue face with a white pentagon in the middle. Latios is a male only species; Latias is the female counterpart.
(https://i.imgur.com/gglkYIs.png)
He is a Dragon/Psychic pokemon with levitation and shape-shifting abilities (aka. he is capable of make himself appear human). He dislikes fighting and will avoid a fight if able. He has a rather playful and lighthearted personality most of the time. He will, however go into a rage-like state if his trainer is being threatened/being attacked. During those moments he will not stop attacking of unless his trainers orders him to do so. Even though he is male he tends to prefer shape-shifting into a human female. You (the trainer) aren't sure why he does that.
Stats:
Hp: 307
Attack: 230
Defense: 211
Sp.Atk: 317
Sp.Def: 270
Speed: 296
His main powers are dragon and physic related though he is capable of learning a wide variety of different skills (more about that after first update). Latios is an extremely powerful being capable of devastating attacks that can leave both foes and surroundings utterly annihilated. His abilities are most effective from range, but if forced into a corner he is more than capable of using physical force against his foes.
Carrying: Soul Dew
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deoxys:
Level: 82
Deoxys is an alien-like bipedal Pok?mon that has four formes, each focused on a different stat. The main components that are constant for all four formes are a dominant reddish orange color, a bluish-green face, and three bluish-green dots on its back arranged in a triangle. Typically, there is a purple stripe running down the center of its face and a purple, crystalline organ in its chest. Its white, circular eyes are set inside rectangular, black eye sockets.
Image: https://i.imgur.com/lGukHAG.png (https://i.imgur.com/lGukHAG.png)
In its Attack Forme, its legs remain tapered. However, its blue stripes are no longer segmented and run the entire length of the leg and there is now a large spike on the knee. Two pairs of whip-like tentacles with pointed tips, one reddish-orange and one blue, replace its previous coiled, blunted tentacles. The protrusion on its head are now triangular with an additional one extending for the top of its head. Most of its reddish-orange skin has receded, revealing a striated, black chest and abdomen. Finally, its tail is now longer and more pointed.
He is a powerful psychic pok?mon that evolved from an alien virus (how is unknown). He is a smart strategist that quickly spots his opponents weak points and strikes quickly and effectively. As much as he appears to be cool and distant he is naturally curious about his surrounding (an effect of only having been on Earth for handful of years) and has the bad habit of flying of to check something out if it catches his attention (much to the dismay of his trainer). He generally doesn't understand the concept of morality, though he knows that something that hurts his master or fellow pok?mon is wrong while helping his master is right. He cares for his trainer, a curious feeling he hasn't felt for anything else.
Even though he is highly intelligent his mind is fundamentally different from humans and other pok?mon and thus tricks that would work on another sentient being will not work on him. He is completely immune to mind tricks, mind control, compulsions and things of similar nature. And unless someone is capable of telepathy and mind reading and can understand the core working of his mind then that is unlikely to change.
Stats:
Hp: 251
Attack: 390
Defense: 103
Sp.Atk: 390
Sp.Def: 103
Speed: 360
His strength and power depend on his forme. In his attack forme he is extremely dangerous, fast striking opponent. He is the epitome of offense, a true powerhouse in every sense of the word. Lethal both in ranged and in close range. In this mode he will strike quickly and brutally before retreating a distance back to observe the foe (if he survives). He is a psychic type, though the categorization is a bit of a stretch. He does not, in fact, fit any categorization. He is capable of learning an extreme range of various powers from most types. It is true that he is an extremely powerful psychic, but other than that he doesn't fit into any type category.
Carrying: Focus Sash
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gengar:
Level: 80
Gengar is a dark purple, bipedal Pok?mon with a roundish body. It has red eyes and a wide mouth that is usually curled into a sinister grin. Multiple spikes cover its back, and it has large pointed ears. Its arms and legs are short with three digits on both its hands and feet. It also has a stubby tail.
(https://i.imgur.com/BfLvB5l.jpg)
Gengar is very mischievous, and at times, malicious. It enjoys playing practical jokes and casting curses, such as pretending to be one's shadow, then behaving erratically. When the quarry notices, the Gengar takes delight in its victim's terror. However, Gengar is very loyal to Gold and will only rarely play pranks on him. Gengar prefers to stay in the shadows in rooms, caves, and generally dark places. Oddly enough, Gold's Gengar seems to have a particular interest in appearing in locations where you would least want him to be. Such as; Bathrooms, hot springs, photoshoots and under tables... much to the dismay of everyone.
Stats:
Hp: 261
Attack: 184
Defense: 179
Sp.Atk: 290
Sp.Def: 205
Speed: 267
Gengar has the ability to hide perfectly in the shadow of any object, granting it exceptional stealth. However, Gengar's body acts as a heat sink; its presence cools the temperature of the surrounding area by nearly 10?F, because it absorbs the warmth. In addition, Gengar possesses the ability to fly through the air. Because of his incorporeal nature most foes have a hard time dealing with him. He takes great pleasure in sneaking up to his opponents while they are unaware and taking them by surprise with devastating attacks.
Carrying: Black Sludge
