I awake abruptly, unaware of what had happened. The ground is divided into smooth squares. Resting on them are long, black snakes tangled together. I stare at them, wondering if they'll wake up. I hear something sigh behind me.
"Still not revived yet. What a shame. Maybe I should have listened to N instead of continuing the project…"
I turn around to see a bizarre, bipedal creature. The skin on its face, neck and hands is pale, and it has black hair and one toed hooves. It has black skin on its legs and white on its upper body. Wrapped and tied elaborately around its neck is a dark blue reed, cut to form a triangle at the bottom. A pure white sheet of what looks to be an alien material is loosely covering its arms, torso and most of its legs. Its blank white eyes are connected by gray sticks that go to either side of its face. When it notices me looking at it, it freezes for a moment before tears of joy run from under its eyes.
"Holy Arceus! Genesect IS alive!"
It decides to wrap its arms around me, not understanding that I am a Kabutops and have never even heard of a 'Genesect'. As I am squeezed harder and harder, I am brought back to the memory of Meganium's vicious vines. As I stretch my arms out to use Rapid Spin (hoping to end the fight painlessly), I notice something odd about them. My scythes are entirely covered in a shiny, Chesto Berry colored armor, except for the tips, which are much rounder, thicker and cleaner than I remember. I quickly realize that I am 'Genesect', and that this creature has upgraded my shell, revived me and given me a cool new name. How nice!
I put my arms down and embrace its kindness by attempting to wrap my stiff scythes around him, assuming it showed good intentions by doing the same. I can't comprehend why, but it seems satisfying and comforting in some way to do this, even though this gesture could mean something wildly different.
When it let go of me, it seemed confident in what to do next. It hopped over to a strangely cut wooden structure and retrieved four vividly colored blocks from it: One red, one yellow, one dark blue and one light blue.
"Alrighty then, let's see what this thing can do! Genesect, attack the wall!"
I don't know what a 'wall' is, but I aim a Night Slash at an odd background, to which another white sheet with a red dot on top is attached to. However, a sand colored flash hits the wall as I attempt to strike it. What happened?
"Hmm, so that's how Techno Blast can be used. Computer, what was that attack?"
"The attack just fired was a special, one hundred and twenty base power, one hundred percent accuracy Normal-Type attack with 4 Power Points remaining. I could not find it on my database. Would you like to add it to the database?", announced an artificial sounding voice.
"Yes, call it Techno Blast. And add Fire, Electric, Water and Ice-Type versions onto it as well."
"Okay, Dudley."
So this creature has a name, Dudley. Interesting. It hummed a playful tune as it inserted the red block into my back.
"You did great, Genesect! Same thing as before, attack the way you did, and aim for the wall."
Alright. I attempt to use Night Slash, now knowing that it will fail and that 'Techno Blast' will be used instead. This time, the flash was red instead of sand-colored.
"Was that Fire-Type Techno Blast, computer?"
"Yes, Dudley."
"Great."
I became increasingly bored over time as, three more times, I was ordered to use 'Techno Blast' using different boxes. Dudley learned that it Techno Blast worked the way he wanted it to.
I was staring at the 'wall' afterwards when more strange creatures arrived whom Dudley seemed to know well.
