Stargate
Plot(s)
It is said there is a place somewhere between dreams and reality. It is known as the Stargate, once a hotspot of energy which caused rifts in the very fabric of space and time. A brave team was sent to seal the Stargate, with one member sacrificing their own life to do so. The Stargate has since laid dormant... until now.
You had the same dream each night. A large blue circle, which rippled as if a stone had been dropped in water. It seemed calm, peaceful, reflecting many different shades of blue. What could it be, you wondered. Each morning you would awake, and each night the dream would return, until one day you would not awaken. The more you tried, the more violent the pool would ripple, until you finally managed to awaken. However, you were weak. You could not move, and you could not speak. You managed to turn your head to see others in the same state as you. Then you heard footsteps, someone was coming. As you felt yourself fading, you could make out the faint outlines of a group of people rushing towards you...
When you finally awoke again, you appeared to be in some sort of Medical Tavern. You turned to see the others from before in beds alongside you, except... they were Pokemon now. And as you gazed at your own reflection, so were you! As your mind tried to understand what had happened, and you attempted to convince yourself it was all a dream, you knew in the back of your mind this was very much real.
The town you had awoken in, Medburn, was a small, quiet town. Many welcomed you cheerily, while others eyed you suspiciously from a distance. You begin to hear whispers about Mystery Dungeons, specifically one known as the Stargate. As many grew comfortable with you, they began to reveal the truth they had been keeping secret about you. That you had come from the Stargate. Yearning for answers, you decide to join the local Guild to discover the truth behind what happened to you.
However, there are those who want to stop you from discovering those answers. Evil forces are determined to stop you at every turn. Why is this? What are they trying to keep you from discovering? What is there to discover? Why are you here? And... how will you get home?

Many still remember the horrors that the Stargate brought. From those in Medburn to those all across the world, the mere mention of it is generally enough to bring back painful memories of a time most wish to forget. So when rumors and whispers that the dreaded dungeon had reopened reached your ears, you had to see for yourself if these speculations were true. So, one way or another, you ended up in Medburn where you learned that it had indeed reopened.
But... now what would you do? You knew what had happened to the last team who dared to travel to the Stargate. Would you brave the risk and travel there to close it? Or would you rather protect those from the devastation the Stargate could cause again?

It's a very simple life. Listen to the Bosses, do what they say, and make sure they hold up their end of the deal and you get paid. It doesn't matter where you came from, what your motives are, or what might happen afterward. You are determined to prevent the town of Medburn from reaching the Stargate first. Even if it means terrorizing the locals, using the dirtiest tricks in the book, or whatever you have to do to get your point across. It's all worth it at the end of the day, as long as you come out on top.

Location(s)
Medburn
"Medburn is a small town directly South of Treasure Town. Many Pokemon mistake it for Treasure Town, as they are essentially one town. It is home to the Medburn Guild run by Arnold the Audino. The Guild holds a fierce rivalry with the Treasure Town Guild run by Wigglytuff."
Chakara is one of the many towns directly in danger from the stargate. If the roots rom the cherry blossom trees that suck away all life comes near the great town, all will be destroyed and they will be forced to flee from everything they have built and worked towards.
Difficulty Level: Easy
Caused by many earthquakes, powered by the energy blasts from the first opening of the Stargate. The rocky terrain is easily traversable and will require less skill.
Difficulty Level: Relatively Easy
The canopy is so thick and overgrown in the forest that the only source of light in it, are the Phosphorous Plants. While they shine bright with radiance the forest is still dark, and it is hard to make out where you are going.
Difficulty Level: Hard
A huge rift in the ocean caused the Gravitational Field of this area to ripple, causing many of the Islands in the Ocean to Float. These are hard to get to and hard to traverse. It is recommended for only the most seasoned Pokemon.
Difficulty Level: Medium
Many years of earthquakes, weathering, and erosion turned this once vast sea into a set of river Plateaus. While the hike up one is easy, it is difficult to get to each one without having to go back down.
Difficulty Level: Hard
The power of the stargate sped up the growing of these cherry blossom trees and keeps eternal life running through them. This meadow symbolizes how strong the stargate has become. The cherry blossom trees have everlasting life by absorbing the life of nearby nature. Everything around this meadow is black and withered, and those that come near feel it as the life is ripped from them.
Difficulty Level: Expert
As you begin it is a relatively easy dungeon. But as you progress farther the crystals are on every wall, giving of a reflection of everything, making it hard to get through. A Pokemon with Keen Eye will be useful.
Difficulty Level: Medium
A cavern that leads up to the Summit of Mt. Frost. The icy cold -30 degrees Fahrenheit can make a Pokemon suffer in the dungeon. A Fire Type Pokemon is recommended.
Difficulty Level: Medium
Vast wastelands that stretch for miles wide. The Energy Blasts heated up water causing oasis to form along with most, making it harder to see. A Pokemon with Gust will be good at clearing some of the mist.
Difficulty Level: Relatively Easy
Some of the pathways are narrow and winding, and some Pokemon will not be able to fit on the smaller ones. Below them are honed rocks, implying immediate death to those who fall.
