David was five years old when his world collapsed.
One moment, he had been sitting on the couch, pestering his exhausted mother to watch a battle with him. The next, masked officers had stormed their home, guns drawn, voices sharp.
They took her.
And David—too small, too weak—could do nothing.
He didn’t understand why they had come for her. The mother who worked tirelessly to provide for him. The mother who smiled despite the exhaustion in her eyes. The mother who held him close when nightmares clawed at his sleep.
But as they dragged her away, she didn’t fight.
She knelt before him, cupped his tear-streaked face in her hands, and whispered words that would haunt him for years.
Then she was gone.
And David was alone.
Fifteen years later.
The name Hunter J was a ghost in police files, a shadow in the underworld.
The woman who had built an empire of poachers, mercenaries, and smugglers—only to be caught and buried within Unova’s most fortified prison.
Her past was public record. But for David, it was personal.
Because Hunter J wasn’t just a name in a case file.
She was his mother.
David took a slow breath, steadying the tremors in his hands. They came and went—some days worse than others. He had long stopped asking why. Trauma had a way of sinking into the bones, leaving wounds that never fully healed.
The academy had tried to break him. Long hours, brutal training, sleepless nights. But David endured.
Not because he wanted justice.
Because he wanted answers.
Now, as an undercover detective, he traveled from region to region, piecing together the puzzle of his mother’s past. There were whispers that her capture had been orchestrated. That the people who had taken her were far worse than the ones she had worked for.
If that was true, then the real monsters were still out there.
And David intended to find them.
Even if it killed him.
What to Expect:
• A dark, gritty take on the Pokémon world.
• A strong but mentally unstable protagonist.
• Crime, corruption, and high-stakes detective work.
• Undercover missions, deep conspiracies, and hidden enemies.
• Gym battles and League participation (but as a side focus).
• The slow unraveling of a broken mind.
• And a mother who he believed was not who she really was.
David doesn’t care about being a hero.
He only wants the truth.
No matter the cost.
