Hello, and welcome to my newest story. It'll be a long ride, but one I hope you'll enjoy as I've been planning to do this for a while now. If you're interested in submitting an OC the template will be at the bottom.

One quick note, fully italicized speech is usually thoughts. If it's ever anything else you'll likely be able to tell.

Pokemon: The Distorted Trinity

Season 1: Re-Education

That Unusual Day, Part 1


"Damnit, don't let up now! Restrain them!"

A gray haired man in an all black suit commanded to the men around him. The sun above them was blotted out by an inky darkness as the area seemed like it had been to hell and back. Destruction littered the location ruins as a pillar's base gave way and it fell to the ground, forcing the man to leap to his side in order to avoid being crushed. He grunted light before pulling out a white and red sphere and tossing it forward.

"Stop these beasts with a thunder wave!" The creature he had summoned from the pokeball nodded and released a thin stream of electricity at the three enormous creatures hidden in the shadows. Moving with surprising quickness they avoid the attack however.

Soon one of the other men scattered around the ruins approached. Like everyone else there but their leader, he was clad in an all black suit with a red R on the front. "Sir, we've lost most of our men and I've already radioed back to base. They say they can't send anymore reinforcements to Spear Pillar." Just then the peak of Mt. Coronet shook violently as the beasts roared with anger.

A blue quadrupedal revealed itself from the shadows and roared once more, this time releasing heavy shockwaves with each bellow. Soon, the men's pokemon were dropping like flies. Although his underlings were retreating back down the mountain at this point, the gray haired man regained his composure and rushed forward, a long red chain in hand. They won't get away, not while right in front of me," he muttered to himself, throwing the chain forward.

As it grew close a blast of energy was fired from the darkness that sent the chain to the ground. The three figures all disappeared and the sky soon began to clear. "Sir, they got away." The gray haired man shook his head and began to dust himself off.

"It's fine. I know exactly where they're headed. Prepare to move out men."

x-x-x-x

A brown haired child, likely no older than 13 was pedaling his bike through the route at a leisurely pace. He had brown hair managed to reach just about chin level and an overall relaxed atmosphere about him. He wore a short sleeve black top with a long sleeve red top underneath and blue jeans. He looked to the small blue device attached to his wrist, a poketch.

"Hm, still on route 214? I should still be able to make it to Sunyshore in time though." The boy's bike came to a sudden stop however as the noisy screeches of a pokemon could be heard nearby. He climbed from the bike and approached a few small children were standing in a circle where the sounds were coming from.

He approached rather curiously and looked to the center to see a crying Starly and frowned slightly. "Mister, we don't know what's wrong with it." The children cried together. The teen pulled off his backpack and began to wrap a bandage around the flying type's wing. As he went to work, the pokemon slowly calmed itself until the Starly was completely silent.

Once finished, he held the Starling Pokemon in his hand and climbed up a few branches to put it in a nest. The children all look wide eyed to the pokemon savior. He simply laughed a bit and scratched the back of his head. "Oh, well, I could tell by it's small size that the Starly was a newborn. It probably just fell out of the tree while its mother went out to do something."

Sure enough, a rather large Staraptor dropped into the nest and glared at the children below. "It's the mother, you can tell it's female due to the smaller white spot on its forehead," he noted as the Predator Pokemon began to caw at them in an angry fashion. The children looked up with fear though the brown haired boy stood still and bowed respectfully.

"Yes, we're sorry and mean no harm." With that he led the kids away from the tree. Once in the clear zone they all burst into loud applauds and screaming. "Woah, mister, you can talk to pokemon?"

"Haha, kind of, but…crap!" He shouted in frustration the moment his eyes caught site of the time displayed on his poketch. "I spent way too much time here. I'm gonna be late at this rate!" Moving with haste, he climbed back on to his bike and prepared to leave, but not before the children asked one final question.

"Wait, what's your name?" One asked before another child cut in. "How are you so smart?"

The teen just laughed again, "My name is Ken Silas. As for why I know so much, guess it's only natural for someone who wants to be a pokemon caretaker." Not having much more time to spare than he already had, Ken pedaled as his feet would allow and took off down the route.

Some time had passed since that event, and the pokemon caretaker to be was moving with haste toward his destination. "Yes, making good ti…" The boy was suddenly cut off as something emerged from shrubbery and slammed into his front wheel, causing Ken to go scrambling to the ground.

The figure just continued running down a side path on the route. Shortly afterwards another figure emerged. This one was clearly human though. His hair was black and spiky and his eyes determined. He wore a red T-shirt with a khaki vest over it and black jeans. In one hand was a pokeball and a pokedex in the other. The only reason he really recognized the pokedex was because he had one himself in his backpack.

"Grah, it's getting away! Hey, you won't mind right? Of course not. Thanks." The guy was speaking so fast Ken could hardly tell what had just happened. He blinked a few times just to be sure what his eyes were seeing was really happening. That guy just stole his bike? Wait, he did!

"Stop, come back here!" It was a bit late for this as the boy had already disappeared down the alternate route. Ken clinched his fist and gave chase. He had lost sight of the guy a while back, but was hoping to find any clues he could manage. "Almost got ya!" Ken quickly spun around to see where the familiar voice was coming from. He could spot the guy rushing into a cave near the lake they were standing by.

The teen raised an eyebrow while staring at his poketch. "There's no lake shown on here?" Shrugging it off in order to avoid wasting any more time he rushed into the cave's entrance. "Turnback Cave, eh?" He murmured while looking at his poketch again, "Pretty inviting name there."

Seeing that the entrance led to three different rooms he simply used the coin flipper app on his device and went straight forward. The room he had entered seemed to be practically the same as the entrance. Though he didn't manage to find the bike thief, he did discover what the boy had been chasing after. It was one of the few Sinnoh pokemon that Ken couldn't recognize by memory and was thus forced to use his pokedex.

"Cranidos, the Head Butt Pokémon. A lifelong jungle dweller from 100 million years ago, it would snap obstructing trees with headbutts." The mechanical voice of the pokedex seemed to startle the creature as it suddenly turned towards Ken and began growling.

"You're right Cranidos. I need to respect your personal space." Ken stepped back towards the cavern entrance, while doing so the pokemon sat down. Ken could tell something was off though; the pokemon's breathing was rather erratic.

Before the teen could really think much more into it though he could see a familiar red bike come flying out of another one of the caverns and dash towards the ancient pokemon. He threw forward a pokeball and released a small chimp like pokemon with orange fur and a flame on its rear. "Chimchar, ember!"

The Cranidos seemed prepared to dodge the attack however it coughed a bit and fell to a knee, taking the attack directly. Ken knew what was going on instantly and rushed forward. "Stop attacking this pokemon. It has been badly poisoned."

The other boy simply shrugged and responded with, "Even better, that should make him easier to catch." Ken frowned lightly and ignored the trainer's response. He instead chose to face the ancient pokemon. Rummaging around in his bag for a bit he eventually found what he was looking for. It was a small pink berry with two leaves extending from the top. "Then what would you do after that? Let it continually suffer until you eventually got to a Pokemon Center?"

He continued, "Cranidos, this is a pecha berry. Eat it and you'll be better." He attempted to inch a bit closer to the creature but was soon met with a powerful headbutt that knocked him to the ground. Ken groaned in pain for a bit, but quickly yelled, "Cranidos, move, now!" The rock type glared to its side and jumped just in time to avoid another ember attack. It roared weakly out of anger, but this roaring was suddenly choked off as Ken threw the berry in its mouth.

The dinosaur like pokemon was prepared to spit out, but the caretaker was too quick and had already managed to get back on his feet and wrestle its mouth shut. The two of them scrambled around a bit, but Ken remained strong and released once he heard the Cranidos swallow.

It started to glare at Ken angrily and seemed prepared to bash the kid with its skull, but the rock type soon noticed that its body didn't feel weak anymore. Letting out a powerful roar, the Cranidos began to smile a bit. Ken couldn't help but do the same at a job well done. "Haha, I don't like to be so forceful, but you're a pretty stubborn pokemon," he joked with the Cranidos.

One person for sure wasn't laughing however. The black haired boy still sitting on top of Ken's bike was fuming at this point. "If that's how it going to be then I'll battle you for it. No one in Twinleaf Town could beat me, Wyatt Blackwood!" Ken simply sighed in response. It was obvious he was getting rather fed up by this point.

"Look I'm not even a pokemon trai…" He stopped at the feeling of Cranidos nudging his leg and stepped forward. The fossil pokemon growled and got into a fighting stance. "You want me to battle with you to get back at him?" The pokemon nodded in response.

Unfortunately, Ken wouldn't get much time to reply on his own as the Chimchar was on the move again. "Chimchar, hit him with another ember." The Chimp Pokemon leaped into the air and shot more bolts of fire their way.

"Ken didn't really know what he was doing, but if Cranidos wanted him to be his battle partner there was no way he could refuse. "Er, dodge and use….Headbutt!" The fossil pokemon listened to these uncertain commands and jumped to the side before leaping up and slamming it's thick skull into the fire type's chest.

Chimchar hit the ground with a heavy thud as Cranidos continued to stand strong. As the two continued to battle a dark haired figure stared at them from one of the other caverns before muttering something to himself and walking away.

"Cranidos, headbutt again!"

"Chimchar, duck and double kick!" The chimp pokemon was able to quickly dive beneath the charging Cranidos and sure enough land two kicks to its chest knocking it backwards and into a pillar at the center of the room. As the rock type began to stand once again.

The battle was soon to continue, but Wyatt's next command was quickly cut off by an explosion going off in the next room over. In that room a gray haired man in an all black suit stepped forward, a red chain in hand.

"You will be mine."

Alright, that's the end of the first chapter. I meant to add a lot more so I wouldn't have to make this opening 2 parts, but in the end decided to cut it off here. I'll still go ahead and give you guys the template for send in you own OC's. Unfortunately, for plot reasons I will not be accepting OCs for main rival, everything else is fair game however; which means side rivals are alright. Don't be afraid to vary their roles, enemy, companion, etc.

Of course year two and three is in between that point. The pokemon on your team should reflect the trainer's year. As the story progresses things like this will be defined a bit more, so don't fret if you're unsure on the character at the moment)
