The PokeDex is well on its way to being completed. Slowly but surely, pokemon are being discovered and sprites are being created to record this important new discovery.
Adding to my list of updates, I'll be updating description of the islands and the boards to give everyone a more accurate view of Ishball.
And, there's a Beginner's Tournament going on as well. Plenty of updaes will be made this week, so please keep an eye out for those!
And I'll still be looking for possible mods.

Because Ishball was an isolated region for so many years, the region never had to deal with teams. However, an organized crime group or Mafia, began to run the underground Black Market. This Mafia is called the Kloiku. Their members are heartless, and will get rid of their own if needed. The members of the Inner Ring are a very close knit group...

Ishball Island
[ ]The Lab
The Ishball Island Pokemon Lab lies on the outskirts of Ishball City. It is a two story building, painted an off-white color with deep green shutters and trim. On the front of the Lab, there's a porch made of wood that has been stained a tawny color. The rails are high, to keep people from falling off the two foot drop. It's an enclosed porch, which provides shade in the summer heat. There isn't much of a front yard, but the back in surrounded by a white fence, which extends for miles. As a matter of fact, the Lab used to be a ranch house back in the day. It looks, and feels, a lot like home.

Here is where all trainers entering the region begin their journey. They will be given a PokeDex, a Map, and if they need one, their very first Pokemon by either Professor Lana, Professor Tiaki, the Aide Kotoru, or a combination of the three.

[ ]Ishball City (4 sub-boards)
As the capital city of Ishball, Ishball city is a busy metrapolis filled with towering sky scrapers, department stores, and some old fashioned house/shop combinations. Most people choose to walk, but there is a bike shop located within the city. First time visiters should head to the unique restaurants that specialize in Ishballan cuisine. There's even a street full of vendors and street preformers. If you head towards the port, the buildings get older, and the paved streets become a mess of cobblestones. That is the Red district, named for the brick houses and shops. It's the only place in the entire city where family buisnesses are still run the way they were hundreds of years ago, with a few modern twists of course.
The city is always buzzing with people. There's a rumor that Ishball City is more enjoyable after the sun sets...

[ ]Minamoto Mansion
On the northwest side of the island, on top of a grassy hill, sits a mansion of white marble. Ivy has started to creep up the walls, and the grass around it is long. The double doors are made out of a heavy black wood. Yes. Black wood. The knockers are silver, carved into the shape of a Skybreon's head. The attention to detail is remarkable.
Be warned. An errie presence is sometimes known to hang over the manor. And sometimes, a voice can be heard coming from inside...

[ ]The Palm Forest (2 sub-boards)
On the north side of the island there lies a large palm forest. It's a mixture of dense trees, like palmetto, oak, and palm trees. Mostly palm and palmetto trees. There are large clearing and patches of sunlight. The pokemon here are very curious. Many are strong as well. But be warned, this forest is protected by a mysterious guardian.
Those who enter the Palm Forest after sunset never return. Many say it's because of the soul stealing pokemon...
Brave trainers are more then welcome to wander through the forest to the small beach on the other side...so long as they don't get lost within the maze of trees.

The port. Located in Ishball City's Red district. It's a place where trainers can get on ferries to take them to the next island. Unless you have a water type big enough to carry you across. There is a woman who will bring you across on her Gyarados for the small price of fifty dollars.
