There is no name beyond "the world of Pokémon." We do not know why we have been brought here, only that it has been happening for at least five years.

The creature with you is a Pokémon. This world revolves around them heavily. They are more intelligent than animals, and most cohabitate well with people. Everyone starts with one, but you can gather more, if you wish.
