The story is set in a dystopian future, set 20 years after a certain great event, where there are no longer Pokémon Trainers, gym challenges or any other sorts of official Pokémon battles. Wild Pokémon have gone crazy under the influence of a virus and as such - the military is recruiting more and more people (former trainers) in order to battle them off. Once a male child turns 16 years old, he is forced to join the forces in attempt of capturing and killing the infected Pokémon for the sake of research and desire to make the world a better place. As such, there are only a few Pokémon Trainers left, mostly females ones (as the remaining trainers are forced to join the military and risk their own lives and those of their Pokémon).

Needless to say, a lot of people die - but also a lot of Pokémon.

Of course, there is also a rebellion group who believes there should be another way of helping those Pokémon instead of having people and Pokémon risk their lives. They're the outlaws of that dystopian society.

What do you think of this idea?

Seems like a good idea for an action filled drama.
 
It still feels kinda overused, in my opinion. :S
 
It kind of brings to mind a few dystopian anime series I've seen. Civilization is a shadow of its former self, there's these fantastic, supernatural creatures that humans have to fight against, while some think they should be befriended.

Done right, it might be quite compelling, but there's so many traps here to avoid.
