The dimension that Elisa was transported to was one full of pokemon; however, instead of pokemon just simply replacing animals in this dimension, the pokemon are merged with people. Every person in this dimension was half pokemon and had the powers of one as well, but in order to used them one had to go through training. Gyms and the various pokemon leagues existed in this dimension and pokemon trainers were called fighters. Instead going around capture and training pokemon, they trained themselves and fought the battles directly rather then just giving the orders. The pokemon battles from this dimension consisted of two teams with up to four pokemon each and are best three out of four. A fighter's team was usually made up of people they have met during their journey and agreed to battle on that fighter's team. Also, since everyone was half human, they all wore clothes that took into account whatever pokemon attribute they have since they did have human modesty making so they do not like to walk around without any clothes on.

In foggy forest in a nine year old pikachu boy was wandering around lost. He had left his house about ten minutes before sunrise to get something special for his mother and give it to her before she had woke up. Since she always got up not long after sunrise, he had to find it and be back before then to surprise her. However, he was now lost since it was really foggy and still kind of dark since the sun had not risen yet.
As the boy wandered around, he heard something rustling in the bushes that was to his left. Scared, he threw the pokeball that he found ten minutes ago. The kid watched in shock as whatever it was in the bushes was absorbed by the ball and landed right outside the bushes. (In this dimension pokeballs were used by the cops to capture of criminal and by criminals to kidnap pokemon and make them fight in against their will.) As the half pikachu boy went over to picked up the ball, he were shocked again when someone touched his shoulder.
"There you are! I have been looking all over for you! Do you any idea how much I was worried about you when I woke up to find you were not in the house, Ash?" a red hair pikachu woman named Delia Ketchum said.
"Mom, don't scare me like that!" the boy named Ash Ketchum said both glad and mad at his mom at the moment.
"You're scared? I was terrified when I woke up and noticed that you were missing!" yelled at her son and then noticed the ball he held in his hands.
"Where did you find that pokeball? you do not know who could be in there," she said.
"I found it, threw, and someone had gotten sucked into it" Ash told her
"Well let's give it to Prof. Oak. He'll will see if it's someone that got randomly got sucked in or someone that deserved to be caught," Delia said.

Professor Samuel Oak, who was a eevee, had just woken up and was just about to go eat some breakfast before he then started his day as a researcher. (Here in this dimension researchers do everything a normal pokemon researchers does minus the taking care of trainer's excess pokemons or giving starters to new trainers.) This was his plan until he heard the doorbell ring and wondered who would be coming here this early in the morning.
"Hello Deila and Ash, why are you hear so early?" the pokemon researcher asked.
Deila then nudged Ash and he looked up at the man. "I was trying to surprise mom today with some flowers but got lost in the forest. I found this pokeball and then when I heard something in bush. I threw this and caught whoever was in there" he said showing him his pokeball.
"So you just found it and then threw it" Prof. Oak said as Ash nodded.
"You probably just caught someone that happened to wandering around in the forest but let me check just to make sure," Samuel said as he took the pokeball over to the examine it to make sure that he did not on accidentally catch some criminal that had been could have been wandering around.
After checking it out and making sure that it was safe, Elisa was released from the pokeball. She open her eyes and took one look at Ash before she instantly turned to stone as somehow being within a pokeball prevent her from turning stone until she was released.
"You should not be looking at this," Deila said while she covered her son eyes so he was not looking at the nude statue. She was not sure just exactly why this girl was wondering around naked but she wouldn't let her nine year old son look her at right now.
"Ash, why don't you go make some breakfast for yourself while Samuel and I deal with this?" Deila said in tone that told him that she did not want him questioning her. Ash did not say anything in response and just did as he was told, leaving the two adults alone.

"Is she even a pokemon?" Deila asked as she looked over stone gargoyle girl and touched her head. "She feels just like a statue" she said since the statue was cold to the touch.
"It appears so," Prof. Oak said while shining a light into her ear to see there was nothing but solid stone where opening to ear drum should be.
"All new species of pokemon are being discovered and made all the time," Samuel told her.
"So you think this is one of them? But she looks almost like a demon," the red hair pikachu said.
"Now that you mention it, she might actually she might be a gargoyle. I once read that they are creatures that turn to stone during the day and are active only at night," Samuel said.
"Who would have thought that not only do they really exist but that they would also be pokemon as well?" he said.
"So what should we do now?" Deila asked. She could not believe that her son had discovered someone that was thought to be just a legend.
"You and Ash should come back here later to night as if she really is a gargoyle then she should come back to life then. While we are waiting for nighttime, I'm going to examine her condition more whenever I have the time," Prof. Oak explained as they left the room.

"Well, everyone. I guess it the moment of truth; sunset is in a few minute" Prof. Oak said as he, his grandson Gary, Ash, Deila were all in room with Elisa, now covered in a sheet, in the center.
"So that's the pokemon that Ash caught by randomly throwing and a pokeball?" Gary asked.
"Yes, it is, Gary, and this raises the question whether many other creatures of myth and legends just might actually exist and be a type of pokemon," his Grandfather told him.
"Uh Prof. Oak? why are we all the way over here?" Ash asked. They were sitting on couch at the end of the room while Elisa was near the center of it.
"It just a precaution since there no telling how gargoyles turn back from stone during the night," he explained.
After that the sunset and at first nothing seem to happen but then they noticed cracks appeared all over the Elisa statue and eventually she roared as she sent stone pieces and the sheet around her flying.
"Huh?" Elisa said as she blinked looked around to see four people staring at her. Elisa then looked at herself and then back at them before her face turned beat red.
"Could I have something to wear?" Elisa asked, face still red as she tried covering herself with her wings, making a makeshift cloak around herself in the process.
Gary was about to say something when Deila covered his mouth.
"I can take care of that, but I need to make adjustment for your wings. However, Samuel and the boys, you step outside while we are doing this," she said.

"So, little girl, do you have a name?" Mrs. Ketchum asked while she was making the final modifications for Elisa's wings.
"My name?" the gargoyle girl asked.
"Yes, your name; my name is Deila, so what is your name?" Deila asked.
"My name?" she said as tried to think but everything was all fuzzy and her memory was nothing but big blank at the moment. The only thing she could remember was wandering around in that forest without any clothes, getting hit in the head, and then ending up here somehow. "Umm...my name is...I...can not remember my name" she said finally after a few minutes.
"So, you have lost your memory then?" she asked as the girl just nodded her head in respond. "Don't worry, we will take go care of you here. I finishing make room for your wings," Deila told her as she handed over the modified clothing.
"Thank you, but could you...umm turn around" the girl said while blushing.
"But what's there to be embarrassed about? We're both girls," Mrs. Ketchum said.
"I know...I know but still could you turn around?" the black hair gargoyle pleads.
"Okay if that make you comfortable since we are going to together for awhile, Ran," she said.
"Who is Ran?" the tan gargoyle asked while she was putting on the clothes Deila had given her.
"Well that can be your name until you remember your own" she asked.
"Ran...I like it" she said, pleased with her new name.
"Umm… about this morning, could you tell me what happened after that I was let out? There was that ball, then everything went black," Ran asked.
"What? Do you don't remember turning to stone?" she asked.
"Huh? What do you mean? I am not a statue!" she said confused.
"Well, dear, you might not remember because of it, but from the looks of it when things went black for you, that's when you transformed into a statue," she said.
"Is that normal?" she asked since turning to stone could not be normal… could it?
"Well gargoyles turn to stone during the day according to myth so I guess it's normal," Deila responded.
"I am a gargoyle, but what they?" the girl formerly known as Elisa asked. She did not know what one was thanks to her memory being wiped by Demona.
"I guess I can explain what gargoyles are and some other things while I am at it since you have lost your memory," Deila said because she did some reading on gargoyle during the day.
