[PKMN] Maxie

Maxie is the Leader of Team Magma, the rival team to Archie's Team Aqua. He is cold and calculating, not caring much about the welfare of Pokemon when it comes to achieving his goals, but there is a buried, hidden passion deep inside him that comes out in heightened scenarios. He and Archie used to have the same values, believing in the coexistence and compromise between humans and Pokemon - now they are enemies, on the opposite side of a mass-scale ecology debate that puts the lives of both humans and Pokemon in grave danger.

Groudon is a lizard-like Legendary Pokemon that possesses the ability to expand continents. In ancient times it came in conflict with Kyogre, a Pokémon with the ability to expand the oceans. Groudon is sought after by Team Magma as a major part of their plot to create more habitats for land Pokémon by lowering the sea level. Kyogre is a whale-like Legendary Pokemon that possesses the ability to expand the oceans. In ancient times, it came into conflict with Groudon, a Pokémon with the ability to expand continents. Kyogre is sought after by Team Aqua as part of their plot to create more habitats for aquatic Pokémon by raising the sea level. Rayquaza is a dragon-like Legendary Pokemon that serves to end the conflict between Kyogre and Groudon when Team Magma's leader Maxie and Team Aqua's leader Archie awakened them.

The Blue Orb is a legendary artifact associated with Kyogre. You need to have it, in order to awaken Kyogre. Team Aqua has it. The Red Orb is a legendary artifact associated with Groudon. You need to have it, in order to awaken Groudon. Team Magma has it.

Mt. Pyre is a massive Pokemon graveyard set into a foggy mountain, located in the Hoenn region. It is the Hoenn region's answer to Pokemon Tower from the Kanto region, another massive Pokemon graveyard which was man-made as a building. It is the rightful home of the Red and Blue Orbs, which are normally kept and maintained by an elderly couple of gravekeepers who live on the mountain.

Slateport City is a harbor city in the Hoenn Region and an area of interest for Team Aqua due to its location right next to the sea, Captain Stern, and his inventions. Captain Stern is a genius marine biologist, an inventor of ships and submarines, the curator of the Oceanic Museum, and the head of Stern's Shipyard. He is truly a brilliant man with many, many interests and talents. He caught Team Aqua's interest when he started to develop plans for his Submarine Explorer 1, which would allow him to explore the seafloor. Team Aqua then stole those plans to use for their own devices, creating a submarine only they could use to reach Kyogre's resting place.

Team Magma is an ecoterrorist group in the Hoenn region, and the rival team to Team Aqua. Their goal is to reverse human technology to a state that does not harm the local Pokemon ecosystems, especially those in the ocean, by awakening the Legendary Pokemon, Groudon to carry out their will and destroy the natural habitats of Pokemon. Though they don't yet know it, awakening Groudon will have the result of human civilization being completely wiped out. Tabitha is Maxie's second Admin and his right-hand man. A jovial and confident 27 year old man, Tabitha was once a brilliant scientist who worked for the Devon Corporation. It's thanks to his intelligence and experience that the Magma Suit could be created. In parallel to Courtney, he is a social engineer who uses his "harmless" appearance as a short, fat man to lure others into a false sense of security. Courtney is one of Maxie's Admins. She is a semi-verbal woman, and she is a brilliant scientist in her field but she isn't especially social with others. She at times comes off as cold and emotionless. Courtney has an almost "childish" air about her, stimming openly at times with how she holds her hands and her posture, and she has been known to use that image to her advantage when dealing with people who underestimate her genius. Despite that, she's deeply passionate and harbors strong feelings, especially for Maxie and his cause.

Team Aqua is an ecoterrorist group in the Hoenn region, and the rival team to Team Magma. Their goal is to reverse human technology to a state that does not harm the local Pokemon ecosystems, especially those in the ocean, by awakening the Legendary Pokemon, Kyogre to carry out their will and tear down human establishments. Though they don't yet know it, awakening Kyogre will have the result of human civilization being completely wiped out. Shelly is one of Archie's Admins. She's level-headed under pressure and approaches complex problems calmly and objectively. She tends to perform and flirt for her enemies as a way of having fun, but none of that is serious. Matt is one of Archie's Admins. He is incredibly strong and determined, but he tends to rush in without thinking. He deeply wants Archie's approval and pride in him, so he would do anything to impress his "bro".

Project AZOTH is the mission held by both Team Aqua and Magma in which they are going to awaken Kyogre and Groudon to carry out their visions of what is best for the human and Pokemon races. Archie and Maxie abandon the project once they realize that awakening Kyogre and Groudon will essentially wipe out both races and leave the Hoenn region in utter ruin, but Matt and Courtney complete the project in desperate attempts to gain Archie and Maxie's approval and fulfill their former dreams.

The Magma Suit is an invention created by Tabitha, Maxie's right-hand man, allowing its wearer to dive through lava - or the elements of outer space - without being harmed.

Devon Corporation is a large company that is based in Rustboro City in Hoenn. Most of the locals just shorten the name to "Devon". It was a small company that mined rocks and smelted iron sand to iron many years ago, but has grown by leaps and bounds, and even rivals Kanto's Silph Co. The Devon Corporation is headquartered in a large stone building in the northern section of town. Devon makes many useful products, most of which are geared towards Pokémon training. The company is responsible for creating the new types of Poké Balls found in Hoenn. The Devon Corporation also developed a process to revive Pokémon from Fossils. It is unknown if this process was developed independently from the Cinnabar Island and Sinnoh region research laboratories. The current president of the Devon Corporation is Mr. Joseph Stone. Mr. Stone's son, Steven Stone, is the current champion of Hoenn's Pokemon League. Their motto is "For all your living needs, we make it all".

Mossdeep City lies on an island along the eastern edge of the Hoenn mainland. Many divers live at Mossdeep, and it is the fourth largest city in Hoenn. One of the city's attractions is Wailmer watching. A deep underwater trench runs between Mossdeep City and Sootopolis City. This cavern was found by Captain Stern in his submarine. Mossdeep City has a Pokémon Gym whose Gym Leaders are Tate and Liza. The island of Mossdeep is covered in plants and flowers. Its weather is mainly sunny, and its winds are stable. This clear weather made Mossdeep the ideal location to build a space center to launch large rockets. In Mossdeep, there is a white rock which holds a special meaning to the people at the space center. They placed the rock outside of the space center as a symbol of their wish for their rockets to fly safely.
