The Origin of The Psychos

Chapter 1: The First Psycho

Wow, I can't believe I'm starting a new fanfic already.

Wex: Me either, especially since you haven't finished Spyrocitor yet.

I will. You know...

Roo: Yeah, we know, as long as people review.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnd...

Antiroo: And TTE doesn't own Pokémon. It's that simple. He does own all 12 of the Psychos, though.

Antiech: Don't forget us, Antiroo. He doesn't want us just floating around the 'Net... yet.

Platypous: Let's just get to the story.

________________________________________________________________________

"Darkness... Darkness... Darkness... That's all I can see... The past is bleak, but the future... It holds nothing but hope for the Psychic Type," a mysterious Pokémon said as his eyes glowed blue due to his powers. "This light! I haven't seen the light for years! Wait... Who could this boy be at the entrance? Nobody has been able to enter since the Elite Four passed that law. How... How could this boy, being only ten years old, beat such powerful trainers...?"

Ash entered the cave, only thinking about how he beat the Elite Four. It had been a spectacular battle, one worthy of being mentioned in newspapers and on TV for years to come. His Charizard, Char, had always kept his Charmander-like determination, allowing Ash to get the upper hand in his battle with Lorelei. Bruno wasn't very tough either, due to his Pigeot's immense attack power. Agatha was one of the toughest battles Ash had ever endured, but in the end, his Rhydon's Earthquake toppled the Ghost and Poison types before they could defeat him. Lance was almost as hard as Ash's first battle against Gary. Of course, that made Ash think more about his final battle with Gary. Gary put up the hardest fight of all, starting with his Victreebel. Ash knocked Victreebel out quickly once he sent out Char. Eventually, all of Ash's Pokémon were knocked out, except for his secret weapon: Raichu. Raichu made the battle another tie without even losing 1 HP. Unfortunately, when Gary sent out his last Pokémon, Arcanine, Raichu lost almost every HP he had. All he had left was one. Ash had to risk using Raichu's least accurate move: Thunder. Ash's command was barely out of his mouth when Raichu sparked and zapped Arcanine, lowering his HP all the way to 0. Ash had won, finally doing what no other trainer could do. He beat the Elite Four and Gary without using any items. Now he was going to explore that mysterious cave.

"All right, Rhydon, let's Surf across that water and see what's down that ladder!" Ash said, "I know there has to be something powerful here."

"This trainer does not think only of himself," the powerful Pokémon thought, "He may be the only one who can bring about this future of Psychic Domination..."

"Aha!" Ash yelled as he looked across the rocks and water in the Cerulean Cave towards the large bipedal purple cat, "I knew it! There's only one way to catch that Pokémon!"

"Hmm..." the Pokémon thought, "He has nothing powerful enough to defeat me or to contain me... What could he do?"

"Pokémon, I challenge you to a battle!" Ash said to the mysterious cat, "Winner take all."

"All right, trainer," the Pokémon said, "Prepare for the power of Mewtwo!"

Their battle lasted hours and hours, Mewtwo recovering while Ash used Full Restores on his Pokémon. Eventually, Mewtwo ran out of PP for Recover and Ash ran out of Full Restores. Each one knew the battle was nearing the end. Mewtwo had only 33 HP left, and he knew if he didn't knock out Rhydon, he'd lose instantly. Ash had used his Master Ball on Articuno, so he didn't have any with him to use. He could only do one thing. He threw a Great Ball, which was very weak, now he was kicking himself for not stocking up on Ultra Balls before he left Cerulean City. Fortunately, Mewtwo had one last flash of the future...

"...Come on, Psycho, you know you and Neo Psycho are the only ones who can do this!" he heard in his mind, "You both can put up a fight like you did when I caught you!"

Mewtwo knew the only thing he could do to fulfill this future. He let himself get sucked into the Great Ball, and put up no fight. Mewtwo was finally caught.

"Yeah! I caught Mewtwo!" Ash yelled, echoing around the Cerulean Cave, "Now... what to name it? It put up a crazy fight, and it looks kind of crazy, too. I know! I'll call it 'Psycho'!"

And so, to this day, Psycho is Ash's most powerful Pokémon. His loyalty is only surpassed by his power.

There it is, the story of my Mewtwo, Psycho.

Wex: Blaziken could easily beat him.

Shut up, Wex. Anyway, I really did catch Mewtwo with a Great Ball in Red. He's been my most powerful Pokémon since. Next chapter: Neo Psycho's story, that is, if at least one of you reviews.
