History VideoGame / PokemonInsurgence

* DarkIsEvil: The Cult of Darkrai who use mostly Ghost and Dark types.

* CompanionCube: Orion spends a lot of time talking with his friend, a white rock. [[spoiler: Subverted when the rock turns out to be the Light Stone sealing Reshiram.]]

* {{Fauxshadow}}: During the cutscene that plays after defeating [[spoiler:Jaern]] for the first time, oone of the people seen picking up a third of the Augur's crystal is [[spoiler: Reuka, leader of the Perfection Cult]], which will probably make the player assume there will be a confrontation with [[spoiler: Perfection]] over the crystal shard. [[spoiler:Nope. A Perfection Scientist defects to the Infernal Cult and steals the crystal shard, resulting in you fighting Zenith to retrieve it; in fact, Reuka even cooperates with you to help get to the Infernal Base!]]

* VillainousBSOD: [[spoiler: Zenith]] gets one when you defeat [[spoiler: him the second time at the Infernal Base.]]

* HaveWeMet: Several times throughout the story, random [=NPCs=] may comment that the [[AmnesiacHero player character]] looks familiar. [[spoiler:Turns out that's because the player character is the First Augur's son.]]

* BilingualBonus: If the player knows Latin, several of the spells used can be understood. [[spoiler:It also allows the player a first glimpse at Jaern not being as kind as he gives himself, since he lies to Damian about not having killed the two cultists. When the spell he used translates to Bonds of Death.]]

* GreaterScopeVillain: [[spoiler: Nyx, the leader of a group of cultists from the Distortion World that helped create the Infernal Cult which sparked many other cults as well.]]

* HaveWeMet: Several times throughout the story, random [=NPCs=] may comment that the [[AmnesiacHero player character]] looks familiar.

* DangerouslyGenreSavvy: Perfection is the only cult wise enough to use Master Balls to catch their legendary of choice rather than trying to convince them to join them through sacrifices and rituals.

** Diana. She uses Psychic and Ghost types and she's [[Persephone's sister]], but she's not a bad person.

* LukeIAmYourFather: [[spoiler: After the player defeats Audrey in her lair, it is revealed that she is Damian's biological mother who gave him up to pursue her cult's goals.]]

* TheChosenOne: There is a prophecy in which a Trainer aided by a Pixie Pokemon is destined to save Torren. Three people fit this critera- you, who is aided by Mew, Nora, who trains a Celebi, and [[spoiler:Damian]], who [[spoiler:Shaymin]] chooses later on. [[spoiler:It's implied there's a fourth, yet unrevealed trainer as well, who was chosen by Victini. Later on, Zenith confirms that a rain-themed gym leader, was also chosen by a mythical Pokémon.]]

* NoSell: Some of the new Mega Evolutions get abilities that let them negate certain types. Mega Gothitelle has Ethereal Shroud, which gives it Ghost-type resistances and immunities, and Mega Magcargo gets Castle Moat, which negates damage from Water-type moves and raises its Special Attack when it gets hit by one.

* GreaterScopeVillain: [[spoiler: The Timeless, a group from the Distortion World that helped create the Infernal Cult which sparked many other cults as well.]]

With a little investment, it becomes easy to keep up with the game's difficulty and helps ensure that no Pokemon you capture remains useless if it starts out less than ideal.

** [[spoiler:Turns out TheChosenOne of prophecy is basically this. Everyone assumes that he is destined to save Torren, but in a case of a ProphecyTwist he's only destined to abolish the cults of Torren, as in plural. In the end he will join the last remaining cult and turn on Torren.]]

** You're able to get a Level 30 Delta Grimer before you fight Orion who uses Fire-types up to Level 25. Plus Delta Grimer has the ability Sap Sipper making it [[NoSell immune to Grass attacks.]]

* EvilAllAlong: [[spoiler:Jaern. He's the leader of the Sky Cult and the 1.0 patch final boss. He orchestrated much of the game's current events and apparently killed the First Augur.]]

* ObviousBeta: At the time of this entry the game is currently on release 1.1.6, and is unfinished. Beyond the obvious fact that after the 6th gym the game just stops, there are many glaring issues with the assets of the game, including the fact several Pokémon will have no spites if they are set to follow behind you, almost every Delta Pokémon (barring the starters) have no cry, and most of the moves do not have any attack animations.

* ProphecyTwist: [[spoiler:Nora, Damian, and the player know of a prophecy that says a trainer who has been chosen by a Legendary "Pixie Pokémon" (Like Mew, Celebi, Shaymin, or Victini) will abolish all the cults on Torren ... the twist comes when they learn that after the trainer does this [[FaceHeelTurn he will turn on the others]] and join the Infernal Cult.]]

''Insurgence'' is an RPGMaker game by [[http://www.reddit.com/user/thesuzerain thesuzerain]], creator of ''VideoGame/PokemonZetaAndOmicron''. The game introduces Delta Pokémon, special Pokémon with completely different typings you find in-game. It is currently a work in progress with up to six gyms released.

* LostForever: Shiftrite and Zoronite can only be received as a special promotion via Mystery Gift, and if you miss the availability window they're lost forever. It's been suggested that these Mega Stones will be available later on in the game once it's more complete, but for the moment they play this trope straight. Flygonite used to be this but can now be found in-game.

Torren is a region that has long been rife with several lethal [[ReligionOfEvil cults]]. Each one of them worships a different legendary Pokemon, and each one has kidnapped, tortured, and even killed to reach their mysterious goals. Still, hope yet resides in Torren's beloved protector, the [[TheHero Augur]], who is the only one able to keep the cults at bay.
