Legendary Pairings

Zapdos and Articuno

In the Seafoam islands, Articuno was pruning her feathers. She stopped for a moment and wiped the feathers that had fallen on the floor behind a large rock and she gazed at the exit. A moment later she saw thunderbolts being shot out, followed by a mixture of fire and ice moves. Articuno flew towards the entrance of her cave and gazed out.

There she saw Moltres, Zapdos and… herself. She frowned at what she saw, Zapdos was flying around, panicked and Moltres and the other Articuno were attacking him. No one impersonates me and gets away with it! She thought angrily and took flight.

She got a blizzard going, but of course that move only hit Zapdos and Moltres. She cursed under her breath for not realizing that sooner, before firing an ice beam; the move hit the other Articuno right between the eyes and angered it. It turned and glared at her and she couldn't help but smirk slightly. Zapdos glanced up at her and gave her an odd look.

"Arty? How come there are two of you?" Zapdos asked.

"How should I know! Just keep Moltres distracted!" Articuno replied.

Zapdos nodded and went back to the battle. Articuno dodged a flamethrower that had been sent her way before an idea came to her. She knew that it probably wouldn't work, but it was worth a shot.

She concentrated and fired an Ice Beam at the Other Articunos wing. Luckily for Articuno, her plan worked and the Other Articunos wing was frozen. The Other Articuno fell down into the sea below. Articuno had an internal fight with her consciousness before sighing, and she flew down to the sea and went under, she saw the Other Articuno and managed to drag it to the shore.

"ARTI!" Zapdos yelled in shock, and he flew down to the sea, a panicked expression on his face.

"Stop panicking! I'm over here!" Articuno yelled, and he turned to look at her, smiling slightly.

"Oh. Good. I'll just – erm – go back to the fight…" Zapdos suggested and flew up again.

The Other Articuno was starting to come round again, so Articuno held down onto its throat with her wing.

The Other Articuno let out a loud squawk out of surprise.

"I'm going to let go. You are going to fly away and never come back." Articuno ordered, and the Other Articuno nodded.

"Good." Articuno said, and released her hold on the other Articunos neck. The other Pokémon flew off as quickly as its wings would carry it. Articuno flew up to help Zapdos with his battle, but she saw that he was just sending Moltres off.

Zapdos flew down on the beach next to her, smiling. "Phew! That was hard! I'm surprised Lugia didn't notice!"

"Me too… I never knew there were other Articuno…" Articuno muttered.

"I guess there are other Zapdos and Moltres as well… It's surprising that we haven't seen them before!" Zapdos exclaimed.

"Zapdos…" Articuno started.

"Yes?" Zapdos asked.

"When you thought I'd fallen into the sea… why were you so panicked? You looked like you were going to dive in after me, despite the fact that it would've killed you." Articuno asked.

"Uhm… well… I think… it's because…. I kind of…" Zapdos began, before muttering something that Articuno couldn't hear.

"You kind of what?" Articuno asked.

"I kind of…" Zapdos began again, "L-like you…"

Articuno started to blush under her feathers, and for once she was glad she had them.

"Zapdos… I think I might like you too…" Articuno replied

Suddenly there was a flash, and when Articuno opened her eyes she was back in her cave with feathers all around her.

Meanwhile, in the Power Plant Zapdos opened his eyes. It was all a dream? Impossible! It felt so real…

Zapdos stood up and took flight, heading towards Sea foam islands.

When he arrived he stood by the cave entrance where he knew Articuno always was, and cleared his throat. The other legendary bird Flew over to him and they began to talk…

Meanwhile, on the roof of the cave two smallish Pokémon were smiling.

"I knew it!" One of the Pokémon, a small pink cat-like Pokémon with baby blue eyes and a long tail exclaimed.

"Hehe. I guess your matchmaking skills are pretty good, eh?" the second Pokémon, a small black foxlike Pokémon with turquoise eyes and red eyelids complimented.

"Oh! Thanks Zorua! I couldn't have done it without you!" The first Pokémon replied.

"Don't mention it. I'd better get back now before Zoroark gets worried. See ya Mew!" Zorua said, before running off.

"Bye Zorua!" Mew called, and happily zoomed off into the sky.
