The History of Mercury City

They may have started as miners but Mercury has always looked to Kyogre.

Mercury

The city Mercury is located to the east of Astronima beside a grand and beautiful ocean with nice enough beaches to visit on hot days and served as a sea port for receiving goods from outer regions. But, before the city became resort-like it mostly served as a miner’s town. It was how Astronima was provided with coal and jewels that would often attract business folk for these trade-able or sell-able goods. It is because of these jewels and coal that made the city transform from a small town to a grand city then providing Mercury it’s very own gym. The first gym leader was a steel tamer who also served as the city’s mayor. It is common in Astronima for mayors and gym leaders to be related, friends, or for both titles to be held by one person.

About twenty-eight years ago Team Zodiac had attempted to take over two cities in their conquest of power. Yet, they were left with one which was Mercury because they destroyed Uranus for its failure to comply with their commands. In the eyes of the villains it was rather valuable to take control of Mercury for its seaport and mining properties than Uranus and its orchards. “There is plenty of earth on Astronima to grow resources,” spoke the boss of the Zodiacs at the time. Team Zodiac had the miners work from dawn to dusk and took whatever they wanted in Mercury City. If anyone dared challenge their authority then punishment was met by prison, battle, or death. Whatever they wish you got it. Most of Mercury’s fine battlers had to be kept hush, hush about their talents rather than be caught up in a Zodiac member’s own amusement. For two years Mercury City had to deal with this harsh rule as Team Zodiac spread their terror out more through Astronima reaching out to villages and other cities until they destroyed another city Saturn

But, what the villainous team did not know was that right under their noses a rebellion was forming within the twelve months of the takeover. Word then expanded out of the city and throughout Astronima as a message to not give up even though it let Team Zodiac aware of a rebellion against their order. Yet, they failed to know who and where it started from or at least not yet. The rebels called themselves “Corona” which means crown. As you could imagine the evil Team Zodiac found the rebellion as a threat and were order to search for the Corona rebels.

The Corona Rebels were lead by Damian Fury the gym leader at the time. By having word sent out through Astronima he had gathered more allies from other cities while keeping his name a secret. When the time was right he would lead the rebels to strike but, that time did not come till two years after Team Zodiac took over Mercury City. That's when Damian Fury was betrayed by the mayor of Mercury at the time who was thought to be a friend but became an enemy after the Zodiacs threaten him. So, instead of losing his life the mayor gave away the Corona Rebel Leader's name and their where about. So, when the Zodiacs came for Damian and his rebels that's when they struck and were joined by the Lady Jane Rosaline, Alexander Pierce, and Lady Ava Fairchild who came to their rescue just as things were looking bad. Of course those three joining party with their own Corona rebels came on their own agenda to save their darling children from the hands of Team Zodiac.
