Welcome to my unwinding-stress story! Right now at the time of writing, I am going through some pretty tough times, so I am going to use this story to relax. Why Pokemon? Because I felt like it! What better reason is there?
I'm going to use elements from both the games and the anime, and possibly some ideas from the Pokemon Adventure Manga, but with my own little flair! AKA, Everything goes wrong for everyone! I am also going to alter where one can find Pokemon in the routes.
I'm shocked! Checked Bulbapedia, and apparently Spearow can't learn Quick attack if its parents are Spearows/Fearows... Yes, I might be a gigantic Pokemon nerd and want the moves to be factually correct, is that a problem?
Extra notes: I actually started writing this story before X and Y came, Lord of Beasts is finally taking form, and another chapter of 'What Happens When One Fakes A Seal' might come soon if my time-table allows it.
LET'S START!
~Pokimans~
Naruto couldn't help but frown down at the meager list in his hand while he rolled a small red and white ball between his fingers.
He had to say, waking up in a totally unfamiliar place after getting attacked by that masked freak was not a fun way to start his training trip with the perverted man.
'Then again, not like he was going to teach me all that much.' He groused silently as he thought about his still unfinished rasengan training. For some reason, the man seemed almost possessed by the idea of only training him in using the fox's chakra, which even the blonde-haired boy found retarded to do.
Did the man spontaneously forget that two of his enemies, Itachi and Kisame could negate, and in fish-face's case, eat chakra, both normal and toxic? Surely it would be smarter to teach him decent hand-to-hand combat and a couple of mid to long-distance techniques from each of the five elements, coupled with a metric crap-ton of fighting experience instead of making him rely on a fox whose power was as deadly towards him as everyone else?
'Aaaaaaaand, I'm rambling again.' He mused with a sigh, resisting the urge to smack himself in the face.
He had been in this new world for about three weeks, and most of that time was used for traveling and scrutinizing a map he had managed to obtain. That, and gushing over all the incredible creatures that lurked around. Many of them were friendly too despite their look.
He'd apparently woken up a couple of miles west of a city called Celadon, not all that far away from a forest named after the small town Viridian. He found out this after nicking the map of some crazy people who called themselves Team Rocket. They never noticed him due to his awesome sneaking skills of course.
Of course, at the start he couldn't make heads or tails from the map, but after getting some help from a random passerby about his age, (Who, for some reason, was dressed like a poor-mans version of a samurai) He had headed towards the aforementioned town.
Three days later after running at almost full speed, only stopping to gather fruit and berries to eat and sleep, he arrived at the town, and boy was he impressed by the large buildings and the amount of people around.
There, he met a pretty friendly dude named Giovanni, and the man had recommended that he should seek out one Professor Oak, the greatest Pokemon professor in all of Kanto, who currently resided in another small town south of Viridian named Pallet.
He'd spent about a week with the man, learning as much as possible about this new world. Of course, despite how Naruto often acted, he wasn't a complete idiot, so when the man asked how Naruto didn't know about Pokemon, he had simply told Giovanni he was from a rural area far to the north, which thankfully the man seemed to believe.
The man had been nice enough to even help him buy some clothes since his own currency from the Elemental Nations did not work in this new world. It was a good thing too that he got new clothes, his jumpsuit was both getting too small, and wasn't exactly the prettiest sight anymore with tears everywhere.
He found he liked the sweaters and cargo pants in this world, so he got some orange and black sweaters, along with several grey-ish black pants. The man also got a backpack for him.
He also found that the shoes here were remarkably comfortable and balanced when it came to both running and jumping through trees.
Kinda made him wonder why they didn't use shoes back in his own world.
Two days after he left Giovanni, he came upon Pallet town, where he found the lab of the renowned Pokemon Professor, Samuel Oak. All in all, he found himself disappointed with the man. He couldn't explain it, but compared to Giovanni, this man seemed so much less knowledgeable when it came to Pokemon. For some reason, he had managed to delude himself into believing that there only existed about one hundred and fifty Pokemon, while Giovanni had clearly said that there existed at least six hundred different types of Pokemon, and they still hadn't categorized everything.
There was a few things though that Naruto got out of the crazy old coot who had a somewhat arrogant, but still somewhat likeable grandson. Of course, after spending a bit of time with the kid named Gary, who for some reason was nicknamed Blue despite his clearly PURPLE shirt, he found out that the kid simply acted like an arrogant jackass to rile up people and get a laugh out of them.
As a former prankster, Naruto could respect that.
He had come to a revelation during his first three weeks. This world was peaceful, and when he said peaceful, he didn't mean that tense cold-war feel that Konoha and the other countries back in his own world had. No, this world was truly peaceful, and the boy had to admit, that despite how much he liked fighting and being a ninja back in his own world, he had never felt as peaceful and relaxed in his entire life, than those three weeks he had been in the Pokemon world.
He found out that he liked it a lot.
It was first after he had left Giovanni that his calmer self shocked him. He had never been so relaxed before, so calm and thoughtful. He had always been jittery, full of nervous energy back in his own world, but now he was... Peaceful.
He liked his calmer self more than his hyperactive one.
Once again he focused on the paper in his hand.
'Alright, so this professor dude told me to look after a Pokemon named Mew, who apparently looks like a small, pink, quite possibly hairless, flying cat-monkey thing...'
"I think this world might be crazier than mine." He couldn't help but sigh at that revelation. Reading further down, he had to hold in a groan. Oak had also recommended that he should seek out two men named Elm and Birch, two fellow Pokemon researchers.
Giovanni had mentioned those two, and they sounded a lot more level-headed than their somewhat deluded Kanto-counterpart.
Back to the crazy man. He had given the blonde a small Pokemon encyclopedia, a Pokedex, something which made Naruto grin. Of course, at the time he didn't grin, since it only held one hundred and fifty spaces, all of them blank to boot, but after finding one of those computers and downloading upgrades and information about all known Pokemon, he grinned and treasured the little red goldmine of information.
His eyes drifted over to the small ball in his other hand, and he couldn't help but grin slightly as he pressed the button and threw the now enlarged ball away. That was his second gift, his very own Pokemon.
With a small flourish of light, a three foot tall, orange, bipedal lizard with a flame on the tip of its tail appeared. The lizard looked around curiously before noticing the now squatting boy besides him. Warily, he leaned forward and sniffed the hand that reached out to him, and to Naruto's delight, it began nuzzling the hand, and Naruto gladly petted the lizard Pokemon.
"My names Naruto, and I'm glad to see that I'm trustworthy Charmander." He uttered with a grin, the orange Pokemon mimicking him. "It will be a bit tedious calling you Charmander all the time though... What do you think about the name Draco?" The newly named Draco's face lit up in glee, and he nodded his head enthusiastically, something which earned a laugh from the teen.
"Yeah, Draco. That's a great name..." Here he trailed off before looking at the smaller creature, an unsure look on his face.
"We'll be friends, right? You won't just ditch me the first chance you get, will you?" The newly named Draco stared at him, almost insulted before he grabbed the boy's hand and nuzzled it again, earning himself a hug from the boy.
"Thank you." He muttered as he pulled away a bit. Once again he stared at the fire-lizard, a serious look on his face.
"Tell me, do you actually want to fight? If you do not want to, I will never force you too." He had decided to ask each and every Pokemon he got that question. No way was he going to force them to do something which they did not want to do.
"Char!" Draco said, punching the air with his hands, a confident grin on his face which told Naruto everything. This guy was a fighter, and Naruto wouldn't deny the little guy the chance to do so.
"Heh, great to hear. Now," Here he looked around at the random Pokemon in the distance. "What do you say about some training?"
~Pokimans~
"So, this is the way to the Indigo Plateau." Naruto murmured to himself, staring at the vast plains before him. Far in the distance he could see the renowned Victory road, a set of caverns that was known as the last true test before the Kanto/Johto league.
"Char, charman char." His companion added, and even though Naruto didn't understand what he said, the tone the Pokemon used made it all clear. Four days together, and Naruto could already decipher most of his friends basic words. Impressive considering that some people live with Pokemon their whole life, yet they do not understand anything their partners say.
"Yeah, I expected a few more Pokemon here myself, like herds of Tauros' or other powerful Pokemon, but it's pretty barren here." He glanced around, noticing a group of Nidoran, both male and female scurry around in some random bush.
'Do I want a Nidoran?' He mused to himself. 'Both Nidoking and Nidoqueen are powerful pokemon with some good poisonous attacks... They are also very slow though, and any mediocre psychic Pokemon can take them down without much problem... I'll think I'll pass.'
Glancing around, he noticed an apple-tree, and he had to admit he was a bit peckish. So walking over there, he did something which Draco still found impressive. He walked up the wooden structure as if he was walking normally on the ground. He should probably be cautious that his trainer could do something he had never seen any other human do, but he was far too amazed every time to really care.
"You want one?" The blonde asked, holding up a nice, juicy green apple, a smile on his face which was mimicked by his Pokemon as the lizard nodded. Catching the thrown object, he took a bite out of it, savoring the somewhat sour taste. Picking some more, the blonde put them all in a plastic bag he had gotten from the mart in Viridian before tying it tightly, for then to drop the plastic bag into his backpack.
Taking another apple he jumped down from the tree, taking a bite and, like Charmander, enjoying the tasty fruit.
Once again the two of them glanced towards Victory road, and the human among them couldn't help but wonder if that was incidentally where the mythical Mew was hiding itself.
'But the only way to enter is through the Pokemon League Gym Challenge, as it's closed off for everyone whose too weak to defend themselves...'
"I wonder." He mumbled around his apple, the Fire-type turning to look at the boy, a questioning look on his face. The blonde motioned towards the caverns in the distance, swallowing another mouthful.
"I've been wondering if we should take this Pokemon League challenge thing. It'll give us an excellent excuse to travel all around to different places. Not just Kanto, but other regions as well. Plus, we'll probably find some great battles and ridiculous things to do." He snickered slightly at the end as the fire Pokemon smirked at the idea. Yeah, it sounded like a good thing...
"Hey, Whiskers, I found you!" A familiar voice to the blonde spoke up a distance from the orange duo. Blinking, the two of them turned around, and Naruto let a small smile graze his lips as he gazed upon the younger boy.
"Hey Blue, how're you doing? What'cha doing far out here?" The whiskered boy asked the purple-wearing boy, Draco tilting his head at the boy he did not recognize.
"Doing great, probably doing the same as you, you know. Training, catching and getting ready for the Pokemon league." Here his gaze dropped to the lizard, and his eyes widened. "Hey, a Charmander. Lucky you, you got it from Gramps I guess?"
The blonde's hand instinctively landed on the orange Pokemon's head, rubbing it as the fire-tailed creature stood there in minor bliss. "Yeah, the old coot was nice enough to get me started, though we're not sure yet if we want to take on the gyms." He glanced down at Draco, smiling at the blissful look he had.
The brown-haired boy stood there, a thoughtful expression on his face before he smirked, taking out one of his pokeballs and enlarging it.
"Let's make a bet. You beat me in a two-on-two battle, you'll meet me in the Pokemon league, deal?" His cocky smirk reminded Naruto a bit of Sasuke, but it was thankfully far more playful than what his duck-haired former teammate could ever create. Smirking, he once again glanced at Draco, the same confident expression on his face.
"At the moment, I only have Draco here, but I'm willing to bet that Draco here can beat whatever two Pokemon you send at him." Draco pumped his fists in the air at his trainers words, his tail-flame blazing strongly for a Charmander.
"Heh, fine. Your loss. Go Spearow!" He threw out the red ball, and a rowdy looking bird appeared, its appearance more feral than the Pidgeys Draco usually had met in battle. Taking several steps away from their respective Pokemon, they stared at each other, Gary thinking, Naruto waiting.
"Let's start then. Spearow, use Peck!" The bird followed his trainer's order, quickly moving towards the lizard.
"Drop to the ground and use Tail Whip!" Naruto commanded, Draco quickly following his orders, hitting the deck just at the right moment. Less than a second later his tail smashed into Spearow's side, a hurt caw leaving him.
"Ember!" The lizard sent out three small head-sized fireballs at the bird, all three hitting it, sending it careening to the ground, too hurt to continue.
"Damn it! Spearow, return!" He pocketed the ball only to pick up another one, though he seemed a bit unsure about his chances for victory, especially after witnessing how easily Spearow was taken down.
"Let's go Eevee!" Out of the light came a small, brown, fox-like Pokemon with a bushy tail, bushy chest and long ears. Naruto barely stopped himself from snarling at it, reigning in his anger at everything fox-like.
'They are not Kyuubi, not even the fox Pokemon named Ninetails are Kyuubi.' He took a deep breath to steady his nerves, something which wasn't lost on Draco as he glanced at his trainer, mildly concerned.
"Use Smokescreen!" Naruto commanded, taking initiative. With his tail blazing, Draco sent out a large cloud of extremely dark smoke which blanketed the battlefield.
"I can't see!" Gary yelled frustrated, not seeing Naruto crouching on the other side, holding his hand to the ground, sending chakra through it. By sending small, repeated pulses through the earth he got something resembling a sonar ability, though not as effective. It was a small technique he had created after Draco had learned Smokescreen, negating the cut-off visibility.
"Three steps to the right, thirteen steps forward. Use Scratch, then follow up with Ember." Naruto murmured, Draco barely hearing it despite listening intently.
Eevee was panicking, and her trainer's agitated voice did not help her. Suddenly, she heard someone approaching, but due to her panicked state of mind, she couldn't tell from where. A moment later, pain blossomed on her face as a clawed fist was smashed into her head, sending her over fifteen feet away, landing outside the smoke.
A moment later though, she was assaulted by several fireballs. She dodged two of them, though a third one grazed her left back-paw. Finally, a last one hit her head, sending her into unconsciousness.
Gary stood there in shock, not quite believing that he lost without even hitting Naruto, someone who apparently knew next to nothing about Pokemon. Re-calling Eevee, he strode towards the older boy, several questions in his head.
Naruto though was busy spinning Charmander around in celebration after their victorious first battle.
"How did you beat me so simply? I thought you were new to the whole Pokemon thing?" Gary asked in a less frustrated voice than even he expected. Guess seeing the happy duo managed to calm him somewhat.
"Oh, I am, but that doesn't mean I am a newbie when it comes to fighting. I've also flipped through my Pokedex a lot, learning as much as possible while finding different ways for Draco to attack." His grin widened as Gary pouted for a moment before the boy spun around, sending a wave over his shoulder as he ran off.
"Next time I'll get ya whiskers! Smell ya later!" Naruto couldn't help but roll his eyes in good humor as he waved after the boy, the pre-teen quickly disappearing from view. Stretching, Naruto looked around the area before turning to Draco.
"You up for some more training?" The eager nod he got made him smile again. With that he turned a random direction, singing a random song as he and his companion walked.
"Journey into far away, and to forgotten lands..."
~Pokimans~
Five days later we find our duo sitting comfortably inside a Pokemon center back in Viridian, both of them covered by a blanket each and drinking from a cup of warm cocoa after coming in from the harsh rain outside.
During their training, he had one thing to say about Draco. He was slow. Both in the attacking sense, and in the movement sense, and he had told the lizard so. Initially saddened by that, he had perked up when Naruto had told him that they were going to fix that.
The training was harsh, but totally worth it in the fire-breathing Pokemon's perspective. According to his awesome trainer, he was physically strong for his age. He was also a quick learner, already knowing how to utilize a fire attack, and it was pretty strong too. All that missed was the speed in which he created and launched the attack, which is something they worked on extensively.
He had only really improved by two seconds when it came to the speed of the fireballs , but despite the, in his eyes, minor improvement, he was showered in praise. That is also when he had heard one of Naruto's motto's. 'In the world of fighting, one second can make all the difference in the world.' He had taken that saying to heart, and was now pushing himself to become the fastest fire-type in all the lands.
All to make his trainer proud of him.
"Do you need anything else?" A woman's voice asked from their side.
"No thank you Nurse Joy. We have more than enough, but thanks for asking." The pink-haired Pokemon doctor couldn't help but smile at the blonde boy's grin. It just seemed infectious somehow.
"Okay, just call for me if you need anything then." And with that she walked back to the disk, a random Chansey walking in from one of the back-rooms.
"Yeah, this world is great." Naruto muttered, Draco hearing the boy's words.
Despite everything, his trainer was a mystery though, and had strange abilities that no other human apparently had. The boy was extremely fast, much faster than the Rattatas and Pidgeys he had fought against. His trainer was also very strong, easily lifting Draco while climbing... No, running through the trees. He could also scale vertical surfaces, and walk on water.
He was one big mystery, and more than once the fire Pokemon had asked himself if his trainer truly was human or not. Then again, he couldn't really bring himself to care. The boy was extremely nice, and very fun to be around. Human or not, Charmander would gladly call the blonde being his best friend.
He was pulled out from his musings when he found a tall man wearing a black business-like suit walking towards them, an amused look on his face.
"Ahh, Naruto. Back in our small town already?" He asked, earning a slightly sheepish grin from the boy.
"Yeah, just got back from training with Draco here. I can't say that Oak was of any significant help, you were much more helpful than him and his mad ramblings about 'The original one hundred and fifty'. I did get a Pokedex and Draco here though, so I can't complain." He slung his arm around the smaller creature, the fire-tailed being snuggling into the boy's embrace.
"Ahh, I'm sad to hear that he was not of any help, but as you said, the trip was worth it anyway. May I?" He asked, motioning towards a chair in which Naruto nodded an affirmative.
"Giovanni, I have to ask. Oak is known as the greatest Pokemon professor in the world, yet he seems so limited in his knowledge. Why is that?"
The man seemed thoughtful for a moment before once again opening his mouth.
"There was a time when Oak was different. I have known him for over twenty years, and it is a mere ten years ago when he was still a professor aspiring for higher knowledge. He was always ecstatic when he met new Pokemon, and he could never stop talking about the uniqueness of each and every one of them. Not just every species, but every single individual Pokemon."
"I can understand that." Naruto butted in. "Every Pokemon, just like every human has their own personality, so the mentality that every Pokemon is unique is a good outlook to have." The man twitched, though none of the younger ones noticed it.
"Yes... A bit less than ten years ago though, he changed. I do not know why, nor do I know how, but he suddenly became narrow-minded. Spouting nonsense that only the Pokemon from Kanto was true Pokemon, and all the knowledge he had before seemed to vaporize along with his sanity. I find it a bit sad, since he is the one who..." Here he trailed off, inwardly cursing himself for almost talking to much. This boy, he had an aura of trust around him, making him almost reveal something vital. This boy was dangerous.
"The one who?" Naruto urged, the boy and the lizard staring at the black-haired man in wonder.
"Ahh, nothing. Just the ramblings of an old man." He waved the boy off, looking away from the soul-piercing blue eyes the young teen had.
The three sat there in silence for a little while, one lost in thought, one being in dream-land, and the last one petting the one who was in dream-land. Suddenly, the lights flickered for a moment before shutting off, bathing the building in perpetual darkness.
"What is going on?" Naruto muttered as he shook Draco, waking up the Pokemon. He watched Joy rush towards one of the doors, Chansey standing behind the desk, a nervous look on her face.
"Strange." Giovanni remarked, looking at the now malfunctioning lights. "A Pokemon center usually has two generators along with a back-up generator. For both of the normal generators to just up and die like this is... Unusual."
Naruto though frowned deeper, his gut telling him that something was going to happen. His gut had never been wrong before, and he was inclined to believe it once more.
"Get ready Draco, something is going to happen." He whispered to the pyro-lizard, his black-blue eyes meeting his trainers sky-blue ones in uncertainty, though slightly calmed by his trainers presence.
The seconds ticked by as the atmosphere grew heavier.
'Every moment now.' Naruto thought, and a mere second after thinking that, the wall was destroyed by an explosion.
They reacted instantly.
"Draco, Ember, and keep up the barrage!" Naruto ordered as the two of them jumped off the sofa, the Pokemon following up with sending a constant stream of several head-sized fireballs towards the hole, screams of pain and slight panic being heard from the dust cloud.
Suddenly, a pokeball was thrown from aforementioned cloud, and a Koffing came out.
"Koffing, use Poison gas!" A suave male voice yelled, and the floating, purple ball of noxious fumes did as told, spewing forth a toxic cloud.
"Quick, use ember on the gas!" Naruto called, watching intently as a larger fireball than before was shot at the fumes. The moment it hit it lighted the gas on fire, creating an explosion that sent the flying ball of doom back towards the hole, the dust now mostly gone, revealing a blue-haired man and a long-haired, red-haired woman along with a Meowth, though the clothes of the two were still mostly darkened.
"Oh no you don't!" The woman yelled, sending out another pokeball, an Ekans coming out of this one. "Quick, use wrap." She ordered, and the snake Pokemon shot itself at the lizard Pokemon.
"When it comes in close, use your new move." Naruto muttered just loud enough for Draco to hear. A mere second later, Ekans was in front of Draco, only to receive a brightly glowing Metal Claw to the face, sending it straight back to the woman.
"Nya, Meowth attack!" The random Meowth yelled as it sprung at the lizard, momentarily stunning Charmander that a Pokemon could talk. Before it could hurt Draco though, it was sent careening into a wall by a kick from Naruto, spider cracks spreading along the concrete wall as the Pokemon slumped unconscious.
Suddenly, a few lights flickered on here and there, the emergency generator apparently having been turned on. This illuminated the band of villains before him better, the two of them bearing symbols he had seen before, though on different people.
'Team Rocket? Why are they... I see, they're gangsters.' He mused as he and Draco glared at the scowling duo, the blue-haired one somehow having managed to gather Meowth.
"Give up, you won't get away." Naruto said, cracking his hands as Draco formed a fireball in his mouth. The two thieves glanced at each other before nodding, the woman raising her hands in apparent surrender.
"We won't forget this." The woman sneered as she threw a down a smoke-bomb, obscuring them just long enough for them to escape. Quickly running outside, Naruto saw them riding an air balloon, something which Naruto had to question if it was a smart idea.
"Draco, think you can hit that with an Ember?" The lizard looked pensive before charging up the biggest ball he could manage before sending it out, its size almost as big as a human. Sadly enough, the fire tapered off before it could hit the balloon due to the rain, annoying both Naruto and Draco as they watched them fly away.
"Don't worry, next time we'll get them." The blonde muttered as he rubbed Charmander's head, earning a determined nod in return.
Mere seconds later, sirens were heard as a motorcycle with a police woman riding it approached. Jenny was her name if he remembered correctly. As she skid to a stop, she threw out a pokeball, a small red, white, black and cream-colored dog appearing with a bark.
"Stop right there!" She ordered, Naruto staring at her as if she was a retard, since Team rocket was still visible, if only just due to the still dark and rainy night.
"Umm, Officer Jenny, I think that's the way you should look." He said, his eye twitching as he pointed towards the balloon. The woman though didn't even take a small peek, her eyes narrowing at the blonde-haired teen.
"I bet you would like that, wouldn't you? That way, you could get away with that Pokemon you obviously stole." The orange duo stared at her in annoyance, both of them twitching now.
"Did she just call me a thief?" Naruto muttered, his anger rising at this woman who obviously didn't know how to fact-check before starting to make wild assumptions.
"I'll have to take you in." With that she started moving towards Naruto, not noticing the rising anger in the boy and his companion.
"Take me in for what, you moron?! Saving this center from Team Rocket? Yeah, that's some freaking great way to thank someone!" His anger got the better of him as she closed in on him, Draco pumping up his flame, making it flare wildly despite the rain.
The four stared at each other, human at human, 'mon at 'mon. Right before one of them snapped though, Nurse Joy came running out, hugging the blonde boy with all her might, making Jenny stare at the scene, dumbfounded.
"Thank you so much for saving the Pokemon center! I watched it all from the back-room, and I was so afraid that they would kidnap all the sick and hurt Pokemon in here." She almost wailed, the boy not minding much though, since a hug was somewhat of a rarity for him.
"Heh, no problem Joy, though could you help me against the Officer here? For some reason she thinks I am a Pokemon thief." Jenny though had heard all they had said, and she couldn't help but freeze in place, shock plastering her face.
"You... You're not the Pokemon thief?" She muttered, though Naruto heard it and shook his head. Suddenly her entire demeanor changed, the most sheepish grin he had ever seen appearing on her face as she rubbed her neck.
"Oh, heheh, my bad." Once again, the orange duo shared a look of pure disbelief.
'Is this woman for real?' The two of them thought, giving up in trying to understand the odd police woman. Hopefully the rest of them weren't as weird as this one.
Naruto though, after having been released by the pink-haired nurse, glanced towards the direction where the villains had flown off, a small frown on his face.
'If they continue traveling straight at that angle, they'll eventually end up at Celadon if my memory serves me right...' Here he glanced towards Jenny who was talking to Joy, getting a description of the culprits.
'I find it weird though. IF, and that's a big IF, Team Rocket's hideout is in Celadon, why haven't the Police Force found it yet? Celadon is apparently the second-most populated city in Kanto, which makes it the third most guarded place in Kanto, the second being Saffron, the first being the Indigo Plateau.' His frown deepened as he watched Jenny report in the suspects general look.
'Is it possible that Celadon's Police Department is corrupt, like Snow Country's and Wave Country's Enforcement was?'
"Char." He was snapped out of his reverie by his friends voice, the smaller creature pulling on his hand to gain his attention.
"Char Charmander?" The Pokemon seemed to ask, earning a smile and a pat on the head from Naruto.
"Don't worry, I'm just thinking." He said, easing Draco's worries. "Let's find a place to sleep for the night."
Inside the center though, Giovanni sat in the chair, a deep scowl on his face.
'That boy apparently only learned about Pokemon a mere four weeks ago, and yet he knew the weakness of Koffing's poisonous gas.' He glanced at the scorch-mark on the floor where the Koffing hovered above when it exploded.
'That boy is learning remarkably fast, he has probably flipped through his Pokedex a lot between here and Pallet...' His eyes turned towards the cracked wall where Meowth crashed into after the blonde kicked him.
'Remarkable strength and speed too... Is it possible that he's an aura trainer?' He glanced at the blonde as he entered through the hole again, Nurse Joy leading him and Charmander towards one of the bedrooms.
'Yes, that boy is dangerous.'
