Introduction
"Hm? Oh hello there! It's good to meet you. My name is Yung. Welcome to the island known as Vivaldi. Well...you've heard of pokemon, right?"

(Art by Grietine!)

A recently discovered island, with more and more settlers slowly moving in. The one who found it? A certain explorer known as the successor to the Hero of Daphnel. Though...all he wants is a life of peace and quiet. Though the story isn't centred around him, rather around his son, as well as the youngest ruler of a region, and all of you of course.

This island is special. Depending on the region of island you are in, you will be in a different season of the year. And that season never changes, rather, the settlers would traverse the island to experience the different seasons, and to participate in the different activities that each region provided.

The Seishun Region, the leader appointed to this region had failing health, and so was passed onto her successor. This region embodies springtime, with sakura petals falling as far as the eyes can see. The buildings here are mostly oriental and eastern in nature, and the main festivals here heralds the new year, the season of rebirth, and to usher in the new year. Those who come here pray for successful year, and it's up to the natives to keep the surroundings looking their best. One final thing this region has is hot springs, especially popular the nearer you get to the Freðmýri region.

The Reluciente Region
Ah, the region of sun, sea, beaches and relaxation. How can I describe it any better? The weather is naturally perfect, the temperature is perfect without it being too hot. Pokemon come here to relax, to get away from the stress of their jobs. That isn't to say that some don't work here however, after all, who's to manage and take care of the pristine beaches and resorts? Regardless, even the staff would find time to relax, whether in this region or elsewhere.

The Ernte Region
For those looking for work, this is easily the best region to work in. There was plenty of work to be done. Harvesting various foods, mining out minerals, and in general be the general hub in creating tools and other items. The falling orange and brown leaves are the telltale signs of the region's season. There are a few celebrations here as well, including one where people dress up for to celebrate the bounty that was harvested.

The Freðmýri Region.
The region of cold and ice. Still, it isn't all bad, the land is still very beautiful, despite nature being "dead". Activities which can only be done in such conditions are the main source of income for the region and are very popular. Ice Skating, watching the aurora...climbing icy mountains, are all popular activities to chase here, and of course, this region is the site where once a year, pokemon will exchange gifts with their family members.

"Hey, I'd like to add a little more info. It's important to note that the people of this island like to travel around throughout the year. It's better that way...I know it's odd but that's how it is, what with the seasons never changing in each region. And each festival and celebration is only celebrated once throughout the year."
