Pokepark 3: The World Core

Pokepark 3: The World Core is the third installment in the video game series Pokepark, a game about a Pikachu who tries to save an amusement park. Like the previous installment, this adds pokemon from Kalos, Alola, and Galar, along with a few playable characters. This game, unlike Pokepark 2, is more focused on attractions then the Wish Park.

Part 1: Park Center
One day, Pikachu wakes up and walks to the Park Center. However, after a bit of exploring and talking to your friends, Pikachu notices a weird hole above Park Center. Then, Nihilego appears and causes havoc. You manage to chase it away, but it runs to the Forest Zone, and locks the door behind it. Ivysaur, the guardian of the Forest Zone, says that he will help if you beat it in its attraction: Ivysaur's Vine Swing. However, Pikachu is not very good at it, so he must make friends with the pokemon around the Park Center by playing skill games.

After Pikachu befriends enough pokemon, he challenges Ivysaur again. This time, you can select your pokemon to play as, each with a different skill level in certain attractions. You manage to defeat Ivysaur and he opens the door to the Forest Zone.

In the Forest Zone, Pikachu looks around to find his pal Snivy, receiving a note about how she is in the castle. Then, Pikachu finds a Serperior who is revealed to be the new queen of the Forest Zone. She says hi to Pikachu like she is a close friend not seen in a while, confusing pikachu. She reveals herself to be Snivy from Pokepark 2. She says that she can't help because of how busy she is. However, a young Grookey volunteers. He says that he wants to become a legendary drummer, but he can't get the nerve to do a nice song. But he goes to travel with pikachu, but only if Pikachu beats 2 attractions and defeat him after that. The two attractions are Yamper's Spark Run, exclusive to electric types, and Noctowl's Sky Glide, exclusive to those that fly or levitate.

After beating both attractions, Grookey challenges Pikachu to a battle. Unlike other battles, this one is a top-down fight, and Grookey can summon Gossifleur and Shroomish, along with his Razor Leaf and Branch Poke attacks. After the battle, Grookey joins you. However, Nihilego appears and kidnaps Serperior! Grookey and Pikachu give chase, but whenever they attack, they risk hitting Serperior!

They eventually hit Nihilego's tentacles so that they drop Serperior, but they become even faster! Pikachu gives chase, while Grookey temporarily stays to look after Serperior. First, Pikachu chases after Nihilego and catches up to them. Then, Nihilego creates a rock obstacle course witch Pikachu needs to get past. Then, Nihilego battles you as the boss of the Forest Zone. It will use Venoshock, Power Gem, and Poison Jab. Nihilego eventually gives up and leaves, into an ultra wormhole. Grookey catches up and says that Serperior is okay. Pikachu then leaves back into the Park Center, revealing another Ultra Wormhole!

This time, a Xurkitree pops out! It walks around randomly, then attacks a Raichu! Pikachu and Grookey help fight, and chase Xurkitree away. However, it ends up going into the Beach Zone! Pikachu and Grookey run to come in, but Xurkitree locks the door! Croconaw, the Beach Zone guardian, will not open the door unless you beat its Attraction: Croconaw's Super Surf. Pikachu doesn't have a surfboard, and Grookey is a very slow swimmer, so you must befriend more pokemon through Skill Games. Once you beat Croconaw, he will open the door.

In the Beach Zone, they look for Oshawott, learning that they will be at the Watchtower. When you look, there is only a Dewott, who says that he is the Oshawott from Pokepark 2. He says that he has been tasked as defender of the Beach Zone, and that since he evolved, his Razor Shell is more..... Razor-ey. Dewott says that they can help fight Xurkitree because if it manages to get to the water, many pokemon will get gravely injured. However, Dewott is busy trying to convince the Beach Zone leader to make a peace treaty with the Water Spy Squad, a rebellious group of Water-type spies, whose leader is Inteleon. Sobble, a spy who wants the peace treaty, will help you infiltrate the Spy fortress to convince Inteleon to make peace.

Pikachu, Grookey, Sobble, and Sobble's friend Lapras go into the spy fortress via the backdoor, as the front is highly guarded. Pikachu and Grookey must avoid being spotted in a top-down stealth mini section. In this part, Sobble can talk with the Guards and other spies, and while she is doing that, Pikachu and Grookey can move when the guard can't see them. If Pikachu or Grookey is spotted, then the three will be taken to the entrance of the current floor. At the stairs of the first 3 floors, there will be a guard who will challenge you to a battle. (a Floatzel on floor 1, a Jellicent on floor 2, and a Vaporeon on Floor 3). At the fourth floor, however, is a Prinplup who will only let you pass by playing Prinplup's Hoop Jump, which Pikachu and Sobble can play along with other pokemon they befriended in the journey.

The fifth floor is Inteleon's chambers. Here, there are not a lot of guards to get past. When you get to Inteleon's room, they immediately notice you and call security: one Drednaw Guard and their trainees AKA a bunch of Chewtles. This boss first summons 2 waves of Chewtle which run away in 3 hits(one from Grookey's specials or Pikachu's Thunderbolt), then Drednaw himself comes in. However, Chewtles will constantly come into the arena, making the fight harder.

After Drednaw is defeated, Inteleon readies a water snipe and aims at Pikachu's head. Inteleon readies the attack, then suddenly, Xurkitree appears and shocks Inteleon. Pikachu, Grookey, and Sobble give chase! However, Inteleon signs the treaty first! Then Sobble catches up.

First, Xurkitree will run away. Then after you hit it with a tackle outside the fortress, it will fight you. In that fight, it will use thunderbolt, electro ball, and thunderpunch. After the battle, it runs away into the ocean, worrying Pikachu. Sobble realizes that he must sacrifice himself for everyone and battle Xurkitree. In this epic boss battle, since you are underwater, Sobble's only attacks are Tackle, and an air bubble attack. Xurkitree has only one attack, but its a High-damage AoE attack that can easily beat you. Eventually, Sobble beats it and it flees into an ultra wormhole.

Sobble emerges from the water shocked and injured. Pikachu and Grookey take her to the Audino Nurse in the Park Center, who heals Sobble up. Then, the three can take a while to talk with a bit of pokemon and play Skill Games with them. After beating Buizel at chase, Grookey finds another Ultra Wormhole! This time, Buzzwole flies out. The 3 easily fight it, but it flees mid-battle to the Flame Zone and doesn't lock the door. However, the Darumaka Bros. won't let you get farther than the Flame Zone's entrance, unless you beat all three in Darumaka's Novice Wrestling. In this attraction, you must launch all opponents from the ring with your moves.... in 2 minutes. After being beaten, they flee.

Eventually, you find an Emboar, who says that he's the Tepig from Pokepark 2(you kinda knew this would happen) and also says that he is a professional wrestler in the Flame Zone. He later says that the Flame Zone is full of sport-loving pokemon, from Wrestling to Soccer, and that he must beat another pro wrestler, Incineroar, but Buzzwole is hoarding the ring for challenges. Emboar says that Wrestlers are too prideful to help someone else or have someone help them so you should check the next-door soccer fields. On the race track to test speed there is a Scorbunny who wants to help, but only if you catch the Darumaka Bros.

The Darumaka Bros. will first hide, each in a different spot. Once you find all three, they run away so you must chase them! Finally, after you get to them you battle! They run away, out of the soccer field, calming Scorbunny. Scorbunny, however, still wants to race. This is very hard as Scorbunny is the fastest character in the game, so beat him in a game of Chase. Now, Scorbunny will join your team to help fight Buzzwole. In the ring, Buzzwole is attempting to fight the Darumaka bros. but they are too fast. Eventually, however, Buzzwole beats them and calls for another battle. The 4 battle Buzzwole. It can use Power-Up Punch, Ice Punch, and Thunder Punch. After being beaten, it will flee, too fast for Pikachu, Grookey, and Sobble, so Scorbunny must do it. The others will be behind you.

Right when you are about to get to Buzzwole for a rematch, the Darumaka Bros. interrupt by challenging you to Darumaka's Advanced Wrestling. You must beat the three Darumaka Bros. in 1 minute. After that, Scorbunny catches up to Buzzwole and has a rematch. This time, Buzzwole also uses Bulk Up as a counter-attack. After the battle, Buzzwole flees. The others catch up and they leave the flame zone.

When they entered Park Center, they braced themselves for another ultra wormhole, but it never appeared. Until they saw a small amount of islands with a wormhole flying over them. They learn from Reuniclus that the islands are an amusement park themed around tropical islands and such: the Parkipelago!(see what I did there?) The 4 leave to the Parkipelago in the second chapter of this journey.

Part 2: The Parkipelago
In the Parkipelago, it is a large branch of Islands with is mainly full of Gen 6 and 7 pokemon. As you get there, 3 Poipole come through the ultra wormhole and fly away to the Cave island, Desert Island, and City Island. Pikachu and his friends decide to go to the Cave island first.

Inside, a small Noibat is there and he will say that he wants to save the Parkipelago from the Poipoles. He joins you.
