Once upon a time, Anrui was just like every other region. Things were peaceful, life was good. Children trained Pokemon when they turned ten; it was just what you did.
Then, Team Plasma rose to power. They corrupted the legal system, the police force, and everybody opposing them. Hundreds were slaughtered, and Pokemon training was outlawed for fear somebody strong could rise up and defeat them all. They own everything.
They police the area relentlessly. Trainers were forced into hiding. Professor Ava still gives out starter Pokemon to anybody who wants one - but she's under constant scrutiny by Team Plasma. Underground leagues were formed, and back-alley gym matches are still held. Anybody caught training or battling Pokemon is either killed, arrested or brainwashed into joining Team Plasma.

Yep, that's the history and link. :3 Now for a little bit more, I guess.
On Pokemon Anrui you come in, sign up, make a character and go get your starter Pokemon from Coryn (Ava is gone, currently), then go into Hyo to start training your Pokemon so you can battle Gym leaders. Standard stuff, right? Well, it would be if the place wasn't under the control of Team Plasma; their leader will stop at nothing to keep the power they currently have and their power is in danger from anyone with a Pokemon. Once upon a time the resistance was strong, but recently there seems to less and less members: maybe they're going into hiding, maybe they're being killed off or maybe they've simply given up. Whatever the reason, hope seems to fading for the few people left. Maybe, just maybe, all the place needs is a few more people fighting to get rid of Team Plasma.
Despite the plot being about getting rid of Team Plasma the focus isn't totally on battling; in Anrui you might run into fellow trainers while battling the deadly level eleven Gastly, meet up at The Hideout, battle in the Battle Arena or maybe meet up in the Verona Cafe`.
The resistance needs more members. Plasma needs to be taken down. Trainers need to be freed. Lives need to saved. Anrui needs help. Anrui needs you.
