Kanto Region, Pallet Town, The Professor's Lab
Gary Oak entered his grandfather's lab. He saw an apathetic Ditto sitting inside of a cage on Prof. Oak's table munching on Scooby Snacks.
His grandfather, Professor Samuel Oak, was a very famous professor and he invited Gary to show him his latest development. Prof. Oak was wearing a white labcoat and he also gave a white labcoat to Gary who put it on.
"Why, hello there my grandson Gary. I want to demonstrate to you my newest invention - The Moemon Virus."
"What does it do, grandfather?"
"Haha. You shall know in due time. I will explain how I created it. During one of my latest experiments I accidentally mixed SUGAR and SPICE and EVERYTHING NICE. As a result I discovered a substance that has phenomenal reaction speed and properties that allow it to be used in enormously huge gas, liquid and solid quantites and conditions. It was just what I needed for one of my most important projects. In a flow of scientific curiousity I intentionally added my super secret special ingredient - CHEMICAL 18+ RANDOMIZER mixed in with some samples of Ditto DNA.
The end result is this!- The perfect sample of the Moemon Virus." Professor Oak demonstrated a syringe filled with a seemingly oil-like substance that had a purple colour. He continued his explanation -
"If everything goes according to plan, this virus will give people genetic traits of any absolutely random existing Pokemon. However, this virus has included special pheromones that make it only affect female organisms."
Gary was very curious. "But grandfather, what is the purpose of this invention?"
Professor Oak replied "Science must not stagnate. We, the people of science are always obliged by our profession and it is our moral duty to test out something new."
Gary seemed to be very skeptic at that explanation. Professor Oak continued in a more serious tone.
"...actually, it has been recently discovered and confirmed by the Mossdeep Space Centre in the Hoenn region that humanity on the Pokemon World planet is doomed to be destroyed by a climatic shift due to collision with a huge radioactive meteorite in approximately 67 years. It's been kept secret from the population in order to avoid massive panic. And that's only the most positive time estimation. However, I have conducted recent experiments that prove and demonstrate that Pokemon are completely unaffected by radiation due to their special durable DNA. In fact, Pokemon in general are much more durable to any physical or mental pain and damage than humans. However, using Pokemon DNA for genetic engineering on humans was always forbidden among scientists internationally due to the unexpected results it might produce but mostly because of ethical reasons. However, harsh times require harsh decisions and the Pokemon League has unofficially given me permission to conduct human tests using Pokemon DNA as long as its kept secret to the general audience.
It has also been known to people since ancient times that Pokemon are very adaptable to new climates enabling them to change their types like, for example, in the Alola region. And have you ever noticed how aquatic pokemon like Goldeen and Magikarp are able to survive and even battle outside of water, which is their natural habitat? Indeed, Pokemon DNA is fascinating.
The purpose of this virus is to infuse Pokemon DNA into women so that their genetic amino acids will merge in a biochemical reaction, transforming the human DNA into PokeHuman DNA, thus transforming women in PokeHumans, or as these hypothetical creatures are commonly known in science, Moemon. The virus will empower their internal feminine hormones like estrogen and increase the production of adrenaline in their bodies among with similar chemicals of all other sorts turning them into basically superhumans with Pokemon traits like Pokemon body parts or the ability to use pokemon powers or enhanced senses like eyesight, hearing, smell, etc.,...And they will become very..."Hot", as young people say nowadays... and their natural instinct of reproduction will be significantly enhanced. Their bodies will become physically mature very quickly, and injuries that would kill a normal human will be mere scratches to the Moemon... However, since any experiments on humans are yet to be conducted, most of this is just theoretical predictions."
"But why does the virus only affect female organisms-, so basically, only women?" Gary asked.
"That's a plausible question. You see, there is no point in changing men. I would even say that would be dangerous. I have studied sociological reports that state that men are naturally more aggressive and mentally unstable than women - we can't let potential maniacs and serial killers roam around with Pokemon power and durability when most of the people will be vulnerable to their attacks. Women, on the other hand, are proven to be much more calm and collected - and that's why I modified the virus so only females would be affected. Besides, since women are the ones giving birth to new people, the DNA will be passed down to both male and female human babies - in theory, hereditary Moemon DNA does not differentiate by gender so all people will be Moemon in the future.
You have to understand this, Gary. The Moemon race will become the salvation of humankind via science. If we can't stop the catastrophe, we have to adapt to it - and Pokemon will definitely survive. So I invented a way to change humans into something more durable...making them closer to Pokemon...You can even think of it as a way of evolution... "
Gary was amazed by his grandfather's invention. " Wow, that's so cool...But how exactly will people, er, women change into particular Pokemon hybrids- I mean, Moemon? Is there any pattern? Or is it just coincidental?"
"Well, this is a big secret but I'll tell you anyway since you're a Researcher too. I'll also need your help. The Ditto Pokemon, the DNA of which was used in the creation of this virus, is actually a failed clone of the legendary Mew! Research on cloning Mew has been conducted quite a few years ago by Dr. Fuji, a colleague Pokemon Researcher of mine who used to work for the criminal Rocket Organization. Dr. Fuji somehow managed to get his hands on a sample of DNA of the legendary Mew in the southern hemisphere of the Pokemon World, somewhere in the jungles. Dr. Fuji currently lives in Lavender Town. As a long-term friend of mine, he agreed to sell me (albeit for a unreasonably huge amount of money!) the products of his research and a living Ditto. Although he only agreed when he learnt of the human extinction threat, otherwise he would have never shared these secrets."
Professor Oak took a break to clear his throat and showed Gary Dr. Fuji's research papers. They were full of scientific pictres, chemical formulas and diagrammes, along with complex genetic breakdowns. The sample of Mew's DNA turned out to be a single eyelash hair safely contained in a glass box. There were instructions on cloning, and also a diary which mentioned something about a "Mew-2" Pokemon, but Gary had no idea what that was about. After familiarizing Gary with the materials, Professor Oak prepared some Ahmad tea with biscuits and chicken sandwiches. He also took some pizza out of the lab refrigerator and shared it with Gary, and he also gave a piece to the apathetic caged Ditto who seemed to like the pizza. "There's a time and place for everything," Prof. Oak said, "and you can't work properly on an empty stomach."
"Yeah, you're totally right, Gramps," Gary said as he stuffed a slice of pizza into his mouth.
...
Gary was already 16 years old, so he was quite knowledgeable about biology and chemistry as a Pokemon Researcher in study, unlike his old rival Ash who for some unexplained reason had only recently decided to go to a Pokemon School in the Alola region after making quite a solid career in Pokemon League battling in various different regions. Of course, Gary would not say this aloud, especially to Ash or his mother, but he thought that going to School wasn't going to be useful in any way for Ash since he was obviously not suited for science or any other intellectual job for that matter.
After having a nice lunch break, Professor Oak continued his explanation.
"Despite Ditto being a failed clone of Mew, Ditto DNA still shares almost all of the amino acid structures with Mew DNA, its genetic "mother". And as you should probably know as a researcher, the legendary Mew DNA has the ability to truly restructure itself into any existing Pokemon, hence Dr. Fuji theorized that Mew is the ancestor of all existing Pokemon. What this means is that Mew's DNA holds information on every existing Pokemon. In theory, this DNA could also change into a legendary Pokemon, although we don't know if it's actually possible.
Howewer, this particular property also makes it nearly impossible to properly recreate a real Mew in a laboratory - the reaction of the cloned DNA is just too unpredictable. At first, most clones died due to unviable genetic structure. Nevertheless, Fuji managed to create the somewhat stable and capable of survivng Ditto species from Mew's genetic material - and it also shares the ability to transform into any existing Pokemon. Ditto, despite being inferior to most Pokemon in terms of battle power, still inherited Mew's DNA information with the ability to transform into any Pokemon. My special solution - the CHEMICAL 18+ RANDOMIZER enters into a reaction with the Ditto DNA, theoretically making the Moemon transformation completely random - like a lottery - because humankind will need diversity in Moemon species in order to survive. And yes, there is a probability that some Moemon will become half human-half-legendary-pokemon."
"So...Who's gonna become the first Moemon?" Gary asked with excitement.
"Hehehe...This is where I will need your help, Gary...In fact, I have chosen quite a candidate..." Professor Oak chuckled and nodded a few times, smiling in self-satisfaction from his genious ideas. He said:
"The first Moemon will be...
Delia Ketchum."
After these words finally sank in Gary's mind, he felt excitement and anticipation as he grinned, revealing his perfect teeth and rubbed his hands together.
After all, the fate of humanity depended on this experiment.
