Time was running out. With every passing second that Asteroid would get closer and closer to Earth, bringing extinction to man and Pokemon on the surface below.

Neither Brendan (nor the enormous green Sky Serpent he was clinging onto so tightly) wanted this. That was why this plan was formed. This absolutely insane plan- formed by the equally insane Draconid girl Zinnia- was to ride on the back of Rayquaza in its Mega Evolved state and destroy the Asteroid before it has a chance to enter the atmosphere. Brendan was lucky that they still had one of those airtight pressurized suits from the Groudon and Kyogre incident, otherwise he'd have nothing to protect him from the harsh vacuum of space. Rayquaza, of course, had no such problems. Being a deity of the air and the sky, no doubt Rayquaza had a way of retaining air.

Brendan gripped onto the skydragon, saying to himself, "All we have to do is destroy it...Should be easy. Rayquaza moves pretty fast, it probably can speed through the rock fast enough to crack it apart."

Though while Brendan worried himself about whether or not Rayquaza could destroy the Asteroid, Rayquaza itself was having different thoughts. Mainly due to the fact that it sensed a powerful psychic energy within the Asteroid. But he was not surprised, oh no. In fact, he had known this Asteroid would be coming for several months now. Several months ago, he felt a powerful force while roaming the upper atmosphere. He communicated this to...his superior, but he was told not to worry about it. As each month passed by he felt it get stronger and stronger. And when the humans summoned him to have him take care of the incoming Asteroid, he knew exactly what that presence was. But this was not just the gravitational force of a giant Asteroid. No, this was the force of something else. Something alive.

Something Alien.

Rayquaza's blood boiled, as it cloaked itself in light and energy, its Dragon Ascent technique protecting both his passenger and himself as they shot forth, ripping through the rocky celestial body. The force of their entry rippled throughout the asteroid, causing it to explode.

Brendan looked back as Rayquaza turned itself, looking at the rubble of the Asteroid. He slowly started to laugh, "Ha...haha! We did it! Yes! We turned that thing into space dust!"

Rayquaza was not relaxed. Suddenly, his fears were confirmed, as in addition to all the space rock, there was something else.

Fluid. He couldn't smell it, or taste it, but just by the look of the stuff, it was reminiscent of the developmental fluids inside of an egg. Rayquaza wondered, if this was meant to be an egg...

Where's the hatchling?

To answer his question, a strange triangle came into view. Brendan quickly stopped celebrating, as he saw the strange triangle float amongst the eerie fluid and space rubble.

Brendan gripped tighter onto Rayquaza's hard scales, "...What...what is that?" Rayquaza readied itself, moving its body in the floating space to activate its Dragon Dance technique, powering up its body for a battle.

Suddenly, the triangle started to move. Brendan and Rayquaza watched, as the strange entity moved across the sky, in a very strange, angular pattern. With every movement, it seemed to get faster, before it unexpectedly halted, right in the middle of their vision. Strange tentacles started to emerge from the triangle, and it began to shift and change, before shaping itself into an entity. Suddenly, two white eyes were staring them down, the creature's tentacles flailing as a burst of psychic energy discharged from the crystal in its chest. A sort of screech filled their minds, odd due to the fact that there was no air in space, meaning sound shouldn't be able to travel. It was deafening to Brendan, as he tried his best to clutch his head, being unable to do so due to the helmet being in the way. Rayquaza did its best to push the voice out of its head using its own power, as it roared and shot a Dragon Pulse towards the beast.

It seemed to look at them sharply, merging two of its tentacles into what looked like a hand, and suddenly pulling forth the stone rubble from the area and forming a shield for itself, blocking Rayquaza's attack. Rising out of the dust from the collision, the creature's form shifted again, its body slimming and its tendrils becoming one. With unparalleled speed, it rushed towards Rayquaza, trying to ram its body into the Dragon.

Brendan tried his best to hold on to the Sky Deity, but he noticed that a Satellite was passing by. Quickly thinking, he launched himself away from Rayquaza, landing on the solar panel. Brendan looked at a screen on his wrist, asking, "What is this thing...is it a Pokemon?" He aimed the built-in Pokedex at the creature, and waited to see what it could find. The device immediately responded: Data not found.

Brendan was shocked. Could this be a new Species of Pokemon? One from Space? There weren't many pokemon that are known to have come from Space. And certainly none of them looked like this thing.

While Brendan was analyzing the creature, it shifted its form again, its tendrils splitting and sharpening to pointed ends, with its body gaining very little substance. Though despite this frail appearance, its power certainly was nothing to laugh at. The Alien gathered a strange blast of what appeared to be Psychic Energy between its 4 tendrils. It shot forth the ball of Psychic power, and Rayquaza snaked itself around the ball, careful not to get hit by the creature's powerful attack.

Quickly, Brendan fumbled around with the strange suit, trying to see if he could get it to eject the one thing he could use to immobilize this creature.

Meanwhile, Rayquaza had turned tables on the creature, managing to fire Dragon Pulses at a rate that the creature could barely dodge, eventually taking a blast straight to the side, searing off some of its strange, alien flesh. Its wound glowed with a pink fluid. One could only assume that was the creature's blood, but it neither looked nor acted like it. With another roar that echoed within Brendan and Rayquaza's brains, the Alien's course changed, as it seemed to go straight for Brendan, ripping apart the solar panel he was standing on and trying to ram straight into the human. Luckily, the Hoenn Champ had enough time to dodge before getting attacked by the Alien. Of course, the moment the creature had time to realize it was wounded, the wound began to heal, almost as if it was using the move Recover.

"Damn! Any damage we do to it, it's going to recover..." Brendan said, as he suddenly managed to pull out what he was looking for. He thanked his resourcefulness, and the ineptness of Maxie to keep such a precious piece of tech open for any person to stumble upon in his office. Holding the Master Ball in his hand, he looked to Rayquaza, who seemed ready to challenge the monster to one last face off.

Of course, the creature seemed ready to intercept Rayquaza, and suddenly started charging a huge blast of Psychic energy. The blast shot forwards like a ball of pure destruction, that would no doubt tear through any normal pokemon like paper.

But Rayquaza is no normal pokemon.

With a glare, and what could almost be construed as a smile, Rayquaza coated itself in the light of Dragon Ascent, and rushed forwards, ripping through the Psychic attack and propelling itself towards the beast. Seeing how its position was compromised, the Alien shifted its form once again, this time making its body much heartier, and solidifying itself almost as if it was growing a set of armor. At the same time, it charged an attack, drawing in Cosmic Power from the surrounding area.

The Green Sky Dragon's attack collided with the alien, and as they stared each other down, the creature could feel Rayquaza's overwhelming power cracking its defenses, and with a final push, Rayquaza scraped past the creature, blasting it back and putting it into a daze, causing it to shift back into its original form.

Brendan took his chance, and threw the Master Ball towards the Alien. Thanks to the low gravity, the ball went in a straight line and hit the creature square in the back. Brendan held his breath for a moment, when the creature was suddenly cloaked in light and sucked straight into the Pokeball. It didn't even shake, and the Masterball clicked, sending out a single light, indicating that the creature was captured. Brendan jumped out to catch it, just as Rayquaza flew over to catch the Hoenn Champ and keep him from flying off into Space.

Brendan looked at the pokeball in his hands, saying, "Well...let's get you back to Earth. So we can find out just what the hell you are."


So much for a welcome entrance. Apologies for the sudden shift in narration, but since I am here now, I figured I might as well take over.

The Alien described in the above passage? Yes, that would be me. The moment that ball encapsulated me, I felt nothingness. It wrapped all around me, as if I was in a state between existence and the void of nonexistence. It was terrifying. Not good since I had just come into the world mere minutes before.

That is the cruelty of the Masterball. It will catch anything without fail, but in order to ensure capture, it must first break the mind of the Pokemon that it captures. No luxuries, no calm kindness, only Oblivion.

Over time, I got to know the few humans that surrounded me. The boy was what they called a champion, a master of battle strategy who was seen as a leader in their community. The girl that always seemed to visit was his friend and rival. It caused much embarrassment when I had initially suggested that she was his mate. The boy's blood rushed to his face, turning it a sort of crimson as he denied my hypothesis. Then there was the girl's father, the scientist. He was the one I saw the most often. He'd like me to show him my battle techniques, my transformations, do all sorts of tests, but he was a kind soul.

There were others, of course. Since I lived in the Boy's house, his mother was always around to be seen. And then that slightly taller boy, the older one: The former champion with the silvery blue hair. He was always wary of my presence, but he trusted the Boy and the Girl to make sure I didn't go on some genocidal rampage and destroy their planet.

But for the longest time, all I knew was that small town, where the boy lived and where the professor and I ran our tests. This would not last for long. Eventually, I would leave from this small town and realize just what kind of world this was. And every man, woman, child and pokemon would know my name

Deoxys.
