Bally Beasts

This is a concept for a fanfic novel set around the idea of the classical Pokemon journey set in a steampunk Victorian England. It is to be a bildungsroman centered around a young chimney sweep given a Bulbasaur for having aided him against a wild Koffing. He goes on to capture a Shuppet and possibly be followed around by a Koffing he cleaned from a chimney.

Considerations for having a virtue being obtained in the process of obtaining each badge are still being mulled over. The Pokedex is a book, and the TMs and HMs are wax cylinders to which you set your balls like needles in a phonograph via spikes that pop out.
