Pokémon Dark Alexandrite Version and Pokémon Light Alexandrite Version (Known as Pokémon Demonic Alexandrite Version and Pokémon Angelic Alexandrite Version in Japanese), are a set of Pokemon Fan games conceptualized by Eloy A. Rosario. Set approx. 15 years after the events of Pokemon Platinum (And, by extension, 3 years after Pokemon Black Version 2, Pokemon White Version 2, Pokemon Sun, Pokemon Moon, and Pokemon Ultra Eclipse) it follows a new story focused on two new villainous teams attempting to take control of the mascot legendaries, Adranael & Giradrite who have mysterious ties to the creators of Sinnoh The game also features a post-game where the player can explore the Orre Region, which has now adopted Gyms and a Pokemon League after the events of The Orre Saga. Due to slow development, the game was pushed from being a gen VI game to gen VIII. However, unlike the gen VIII games Pokemon Sword and Shield, Alexandrite Versions feature every Pokemon currently available in the series, including regional variants.

Sinnoh Region
Sinnoh has seen a great many changes in the 10 years that passed between games. Relations with the Orre Region have caused the two cultures to intermix, creating many new areas and partnerships between the two. The Battle Frontier has been disestablished, as the island is now a starting point for young trainers. Flower Paradise and Seabreak Path have been turned into tow and gigantic bridge respective. The

Many Gyms have also changed location or have been shut down to make room for new establishments. The Pokemon League has also been moved to the top of Mt. Coronet. As a result, many gym leaders have stepped down from their positions, as well as Cynthia as Champion. Depending on the version of game chosen, either Verity with Giradrite or Acuity with Adranael will stand as the final opponent, defeating the current Champion, Dawn, prior to the protagonist's arrive at the Elite Four.

Sometime 3 years ago, a strange distortion caused a flux within space and time, causing a merge with the Mega and Non-Mega timelines. Not only did this cause a duplication of many humans and Pokémon, but a form of mega evolution that became permanent (Some became new evolutions for Pokémon, while others became regional "Sinorrian" forms). This event stemmed from the Distortion World, as Giratina, amassed an army of Pokemon and launched an assault on Arceus. Ultimately unsuccessful, Giratina managed to gain some of the creator's power, and began for form his own Pokemon after returning to the Distortion World (Later also becoming "regional variants" based on the Pokemon from his army). Swearing to never allow Giratina to cause harm again, Arceus used the last of its power to create Giradrite, a more loyal and benevolent version of the fallen deity, albeit without a true heart, before falling into a deep sleep.

Orre Region
Orre (Japanese: オーレ地方 Ōre-chihō) was the setting of the Generation III side series games Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness. In other games, Pokémon obtained in Orre are listed as being met in a distant land (Japanese: 遠く離れた土地 distant land). Ever since Cynthia's discovery of the Sinjoh ruins, a giant subway has been made connecting Sinnoh to Orre, with the Station being the previous location of Cipher's laboratory.

While Orre had no wild Pokémon in Colosseum, and has only a few starting to pop up in specific locations, known as Poké Spots, in XD, Pokemon are found all over the Region in the Alexandrite Versions, with the aforementioned "Distortion Aura" bringing forth mutation evolutions and Sinorrian forms. Similar to Alola, Orre is relatively new when it comes to having its own Pokémon League, who's champion is "Colette", a Gardevoir who was mutated to the point of being considered intelligent enough to be part of human society. Orre's Colosseums were retooled into working similar to Gyms from the Galar Region, consisting of the usual 8 around the region. To this day, Orre still suffers from Shadow Pokemon, however, they are officially considered a brand new type in both Orre and Sinnoh, as well as being their "regional variant".

Sinnoh League
Only a few of the original members of the league have remained Gym leaders, with many relinquishing their titles to younger generations.

Orre League
After the player completes the main story, they can take the Supertrain over to Orre and challenge Orre's 8 gyms as well. While Orre specializes in Colosseums, most of them have been converted into Gyms. Like Gold/Silver/Crystal and HeartGold/SoulSilver, the Gyms can be taken on in any order. Orre also possesses its own Pokemon League separate from Sinnoh, and can be challenged anytime after the 8 gyms are defeated.

Pokemon Available in Sinnoh/Orre
The starters of Sinnoh follow the traditional Grass/Fire/Water trio setup, however, Chimchar, Pinplup and Turtwig have become rare over the years, and so a new trio now take its place. At the beginning of the game, the player must choose between the

Mutation Evolutions
Certain Pokemon Evolve into different Pokemon, or gain a new evolution, thanks to the Distortion Aura that plauges both Sinnoh and Orre. This is not limited to the variants, as regular Pokemon, such as Pikachu, have a Mutation Evolution.

Mutation Forms
The Demonic Versions also introduce new forms to a few different pokemon, either through story, or special events. In most cases, these Pokemon must be battled before they can be captured and/or the item in question used for their new form can be obtained.
