Pokéfighters: The Good Hearts Tales (ポケファイターズ, pokefaaitāzu), also called Pokémon Fighters (ポケモンファイターズ, pokemon faaitāzu) and Pokéfighters: The Hero Tales, was a fanfiction series based off the popular franchise Pokemon. It was first written around the year 1999 or 2000 as Pokéfighters, as a prose about a Pikachu and his friends. It later expanded into a series about their battles against the Legendary Birds, and later Mewtwo. In 2010, the author MGW had decided on a revision and the story has significantly changed from the original, with Pikachu remaining as a main character. In 2011, the story was canceled.

The remake was set mainly in the regions of Kanto and Johto. A wild Pikachu joins with Fire Red ("Red" for short), the young trainer of his little brother Pichu to find a solution to the "Vanish Catastrophe". Years ago, the event has caused more than half of the human population to disappear, including Fire Red's mother. Not only does he want to bring his mother back, but Red (along with Pikachu) also wants to save all Pokemon from the corrupted plan of the Elite Family, who became the self-proclaimed leaders of the world.

Concept and Creation

MGW had concerns that the revision ideas for Pokefighters may be "too dark" (or "unlike the TV Series") for children, since that was the main audience she was shooting for. It was supposed to show the humans becoming a minority race, Gene being corrupted by revenge, and an uncomfortable area in pokemon catching. MGW also stated that it'll have an atmosphere "like the comics".

Setting

Vanish Catastrophe
An event that caused more than half of the human population to disappear. This is due to them being dragged into the Distortion World during the trainer war against Giratina. The dragon of time Dialga and dragon of space Palkia had a connection, but the details from MGW's MS word files were lost.
