Arceus has been imprisoned for many millennia, and in that time he has watched his world fall apart. But once he is finally freed from his prison he decides that to protect his Pokémon, and his family, that he will move the Pokémon, and a few select 'humans' to a world where they might live in peace, Equestria. However, not everyone on this new world shares his view of peace and the very presence of the Pokémon upsests some of the citizens of the world, even some of the ones he brought with aren't too happy with the situation. But a god's will is a strong thing and without his willingness the Pokémon and the citizens of Equestria are going to have to learn to get along, or at least tolerate each other. And there's a slight problem with some of the humans too, well, former humans that is.

Big thanks toxBUBBA1995x for the amazing new cover art!
I also have a Tvtrope page that is kept somewhat up to date by Kingofsouls if you know how to Trope, and want to help set it up, go here Tvtrope Link.
Since a lot of people keep aking this I'm gonna put an explanation here. I'm not following any one canon-verse here, I'm making a hodge podge universe with bits from the Manga, Anime, Games, and Movies, as well as some etcetera concerning issues addressed in none of them to great lengths. (Arceus' power is far beyond what he has in the games or movie and this does contain some Pokephilia, which comes from pretty much no canon material ever.)
Ok! I'm digging this fic! I hope it continues. Which humans have been transported? You know, like ash misty Brock etc.
So good! I'm looking foreword to the next update!
By the way, I noticed quite a few gramar mistakes, as well as some sentences that didn't make sense. But other than that, the writing's great!
3736666 Yeah I have to agree with you. I hope the author continues to write the stories like this. Also can't wait to see Princess Celetia and Arceus meet! It will be quite interesting. What the author did with the trainer is a bit of a new one for me, never seen a pokemon crossover do that, although I don't really read them.
I hope that you shall turn all the equestrian animals into pokemon, so this story wouldn't become as that other pokemon fanfic
GJ On the featured. I love the personalities you have giving the legendary.
Keep it up!

Try this fic on for size: http://www.fimfiction.net/story/82028/a-pokemon-problem

WAIT!!!!! I just realized something. The poke professors are pokemon caretakers. Fluttershy is doing that too, but here's the kicker. All of the professors' names are named after trees. YAY!!!! FLUTTERS GETS TO BE A TREE!!!!
This is SUPER cool!
what everyone else is saying....MOAR
this is VERY GOOD
have this
This story wins my Track and Upvote if Ash ketchum is in this fic as a main focus.
3737515 Fuck Ash, Red is cooler xD
A pokemon fic.
That gets featured.
And gives a WHOLE story of the pokemon wolrd origin.
A damn good story.
Braces himself
I'm for the ride, you sir.
For those of us who aren't hardcore into Pokémon I suggest putting pictures of all the Pokémon you use in a chapter in that chapter's author's notes. Or at the very least, the ones you don't explicitly name.
3737515
You mean, Ass Ketchup.
3737536
Oh well
3737515
i have to disagree, if he appears and has a cameo or is one of the 'main character' sort of thing that would be cool.
but i don't think i could deal with ash being the only main focus character.
Cubone, and acting like it's old pokedex entry...
3737744 Hahahaha
I always love a good pokemon fic. A pokemon problem was good, this one looks pretty damn good too.
Continue!
You should probably fix the ridiculously long run-on sentence in the description, it's kind of a turnoff.
You see this has one foe the this I hate: misunderstandings
This chapter, I like it! Another!!
I wonder how Luna will react to Darkrai
Before I even start reading, let me guess: Humans become ponies. If that's a yes, I'm going to give this a pass. :V
The cubone! So much feels
Because of this story, I've decided I'm going to finish my X and Y games for once. Anyway, great thing you got here going, keep up the good work!
3737006 You, buddy, know some great stories. I like it!
3738144
I know what you mean. I'm still trying to recover from the fright of seeing so many Human-Turn-Into-Pokemon-In-Equestria stories flood the site. It was... frightening.
Although this is my first time seeing a Legendary Pokemon go into Equestria. This will be a little interesting.
I liked this before I even started reading.
we need MORE CHAPTERS
Please?
awww I can only like and fave so many times
THANK YOU! THANK YOU YOU MOTHER FUCKING GENIUS! THE ONLY PERSON THAT HAS A GOOD POKEMON ORIGIN STORY AND THE CORRECT WAY TO DESCRIBE THE FUCKING LEGIONARIES
! YOU DESERVE A FUCKING STAR AND HEAD POKEMON WRITER FOR GOD'S SAKE!
I DEMAND MOAR!
Interesting, I'm gonna watch this and see where this goes.
I feel that Arceus is being a little hypocritical on this.From what I understand he indiscriminately teleported all "good" humans away from their families and turned them into pokemon. From how it is presented, none of them had a say in this. I'd imagine there would be people who wanted to stay human. Unless this is a misanthropic fic, in which case I guess only "evil" people will have a problem with being pokemon.
This is gonna be good!
It's dangerous for them to go into the Everfree Forest alone, take this
Okay, I'll roll with this. I'll give you a favorite for now, and I'll wait for more chapters, but I suggest you get a proofreader. There are some errors scattered throughout each chapter so far that break the immersion.
Pretty good so far. Expecting more :D
3738144
Nope
This story is off to a great start. I really look forward to seeing where this goes. Will Ash and friends appear in this story? Will the people and pokemon left behind on earth ever find out what happen?
Looks interesting and I'll give it a read whenever I find time in my schedule. Forgive me for what's next, though, because I know no one likes getting critiqued based on a description alone:
Some grammar errors I saw in the description (and that I'd hate to see happen in the story, as it can ruin a grammar-savvy reader's enjoyment) that are bound to be repeated if not corrected due to the abundance of the word:
Should be "aren't TOO happy" (http://grammarist.com/usage/to-too/).I remember by seeing if I can replace it with as well (e.g. "they weren't happy as well," therefore "too" instead of "to.")
Second one:
Should be "god's will" as it's his (god/Arceus's) will. Just like I'd say it's "Tim's house/phone/knife" you have to show possessiveness with the 's. (http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/possessives.htm)
There were some other errors like a missing word or two, but that's fixed with a proof-reader or two.
Sorry if this reads a bit weird (running on empty right now), but I feel like you'll get the point and become an even better writer ^_^. Heck, maybe you've already figured this out a few thousand words in, and you just haven't changed the description yet.
I'm pretty sure diamond tiara and silver spoon will be bullying a magicarp. It evolves and. Yeah you know where this is going
Really cool start, love the world-building and am interested to see where this goes. My only major issue is that, aside from Arceus, none of the legendaries have had much time to build up character or personality. Which is inevitable, there's over 50 of them and it's only three chapters, not all of which focus on them, but just a note I hope they develop more in the future. There's also a lot of spelling and grammar errors, not so much to disrupt the narrative, but they're noticeable, so reading over the chapter in the future may help.
There's a huge amount of potential to take this concept pretty much anywhere you want it to go, so I'm very much looking forward to the next chapters.
Also random linkage of this because I made them out of boredom just two days ago. Creepy appropriate timing :)

3737681 I have to agree, my friend. This has promise indeed.
3738295
awww, but what about A pokemon problem? Surely that deserves some reputation.
Eh I'm on the fence for this one its suggested that the humans brought along are now pokemon theres little point in the human tag if there only going to change and not be physically human.
However it looks to be a good story with an interesting premise.
Once this releases another chapter or two and read the comments of what people think I'll start my read on this. ^^
3738907 You actually tracked my comment all that way down? Wow...
So are we going to see humans like Dawn or May in this story?
3739211 ... I started reading at the time...
Please! You can't pick good humans and not have Ash in that group
LET HIM BE THERE!!!
