A Pokemon Legend Unveiled to the public.
Disclaimer: Pokemon doesn't belong to me. If I did, I would've made it so that Pokemon Go had a more Yu-Gi-Oh! based AR system.
Chapter Four: Battle The AM2
AM2 jumped forward with enough strength to snap the metallic wires and cords that were keeping its armor in place. The ends of the snapped cords that were still attached to the suit of armor began to glow and started to float into the air. Floated into nothingness. AM2 then moved its left arm out towards the duo, unlike the regular powerhouse the two were used to, this Mewtwo had robotic claws that seemed to be lighting up with electricity. The AM2 shrieked and its began moving faster.
Red looked to Blue, and could see the panic on his face. The last time Blue was in a fight with a Mewtwo, he ended up in Pokecenter for just over a month...
~Flashback~
Red and Blue are 11.
At the Pokemon Center.
Prof. Oak was leaning over his grandsons sleeping form. Blue had been in the hospital for two weeks at this point, Prof. Oak had left his lab under the supervision of his eldest grandchild Daisy. She had been instructed to try and contact Red as soon as possible. but none of the calls or messages were getting through to him. Until two weeks after, he had answered his phone, Daisy had told him that Blue was in the Pokecenter and Oak wanted Red there. Red then flew from the Hoen Region to the pokecenter in Currulean city on the back of his Pidgeot. Red slowly opened the door and saw Blue's damaged form, deep cuts, bandaged and casted limbs and ribcage, an eye patch over his right eye his arm hanging above him in a sling, his childhood blanket pulled over him, and ontop of the blanket was Professor Oak, wearing baggy clothing, a short beard slightly growing, and his face ragged. Red looked around the room and walked over to the far corner of the room and sat down on a chair, it wasn't very comfy, but he had been awake for 32 hours straight and needed some sleep, he looked at his pokewatch and saw the time was only 4am, so Red took his red jacket off and hung it on the back of his chair, leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.
"Hey Red?" Someone began startling him, he slowly opened his heavy eyes to see the ragged form of Oak "Good to see you're awake, I'm glad to see you managed to get here in the end Red. How are you?" The old man asked offering his hand to Red, who happily took it, now standing up next to Oak wearing jeans and a black t (The clothes are what Red's wearing), the two walked over to Blue, who was still asleep.
"...What happened?" Red asked, his voice quiet.
"Simple, rumor of a roaring powerhouse of a pokemon in the Cerulean caves reached his ear, and so he went out trying to find the strongest pokemon, he took his strongest pokemon with him and four days later I get a call from Nurse Joy, saying that Blue had been attacked and is in critical condition, his pokemon are also under extensive surgery, the kind that will have to be paid for. which of course I was fine with, I just wanted to see my grandson and his pokemon safe. I ended up having to use my laps helicopter to get here in record timing. When I got to the center I had to sign some forms that enabled Blue and his pokemon to go through the surgery. The few times that Blue has been awake, the only things his spoken about were this dark creature that's roar almost cracked every bone in his body, that it managed to take out then almost torture every pokemon that was put up against it, and once this pokemon had defeated all of Blue's party, it lifted him into the air, its eyes staring into his soul, and all Blue cold do is feel this intense power and darkness encasing his soul. Then in an instant Blue was thrown across the caves, he is lucky to be alive." Professor Oak told Red, looking down at his grandson the entire time.
Red just stared at his long time rival and friend, remembering all of their battles, and all of their skill. This young man in front of him could be dying... His best friend could be dying. Red couldn't have that. He clenched his fist, the material of his glove ceasing at the sound, and he turned to Oak. "Professor, where is this... legendary pokemon rumored to be?" Oak looked up at Red for a second, and couldn't help but smile, seeing himself in this young man so he nodded his head, and pulled out his journal. "This Red, is my personal journal, for the past week I have been using information that Blue has given me, what people state about the rumor and what the rumor it self states about this pokemon. Now of course we know that this legendary pokemon will be resting somewhere within the Cerrulean Caves, by cross referencing the information with what I know about sound wave travel and the information about this pokemon, I have located the general area of this pokemon. Now Red, you may have defeated Blue, but you need to go to this battle prepared, you need to understand the opponent you are about to take on." Oak told the young boy handing him the Journal. "If I cannot defeat this legendary pokemon, then I am not worthy of it."
Red took the journal and looked out of the window of the center towards the Cerulean caves. He knew that he was about to fave an opponent that he had never face before, he walked past Oak and to the door, grabbing his jacket on the way. Once out in the hall, Red stood there for a second of allowing everything to finally hit him. He was about to face something he had never before expected to be real. THE most strongest pokemon in the entire Kanto Region. He had already captured the three birds of legend, Moltres, Zapdos and Articuno. Now he had to face a pokemon he had only heard and read about in passing, Mewtwo. He had received information about this pokemon born from Mew the first pokemon when in the burnt Cinnabar island laboratory, and also from Mr. Fuji. This pokemon had defeated Blue's pokemon and also left him in an almost unrecoverable state. His right arm almost completely broken, his wrist on his left arm sprained, his right ligaments have a hair line fracture, and his left ankle sprained. His face bruised and bloody, his ribs either broken or bruised. Even with the advanced medication skills that is available to them in this age, it will still take a while before Blue will be out of pain. He must now head to the Cerulean Caves and defeat this pokemon.
~End of Flashback~
Blue on the floor, his body trembling, the cold seeping into his very skin, and all those injuries he had sustained all those years began feeling rather painful, as if they had only just healed. He couldn't even move his eyes away from the machine covered pokemon. He knew that this wasn't the same monstrosity that had given him those injuries all those years ago, that version was born from Mew, this was only cloned from its DNA and mixed with some of the real Mewtwo's... but Red just stood there, AM2's claws slowly getting closer and closer towards Red's skin, almost piercing his flesh, which he knew would kill him.
AM2's claws were just about to scratch the surface of Red's skin when he finally uttered something. Three powerful words. "Ignis. Iron Tail." And in a second the electric mouse on his shoulders whacked the incoming metal claws away, sending the armored Mewtwo flying in Giovanni's general direction "AM2, use psychic to steady yourself." The Armored Mewtwo glew dark purple, he turned upright and he began lowering himself but its body shuddered, the glowing color disappeared and it fell to the floor, luckily landing on its feet. Giovanni looked panicked for a second, and stared at Red. "Of course you would wait until the last second to defend yourself, you are a pathetic cheat Red Masters! You stole so much from me, the least you could do is die at my hand!" Giovanni shouted at Red, then looked to the shaking form of Blue on the floor "And there he is, the young prodigy, Blue Oak, the one who's job it is to take care of this gym, how pathetic you are for falling victim to fear, fear of my powerful pokemon. You two are pathetic, looking at me with your wide eyes, young eyes, put together the two of you have never faced a war. War is not something the two of you have even heard about. I could declare war on the United Leagues of The Seven Regions and I swear that you two wouldn't even be on the front line, you would be kept back in your cosy little palaces, never even worrying about how you will get your next meal, never truly being scared of being killed in the line of war. You two are tiny little shits who stole everything from me, and right now, I will kill you, I will take everything from you! AM2 Mecha Claw!" and with that last threat of a command, the AM2 leaped into the air and jumped from the ceiling of the lap; flying towards the two trainers.
Red looked to his mouse partner and nodded to him, its tail gained a metallic shine and intersected the incoming mutant. Red grabbed Blue and lifted him to his feet "We've got to get out of here, Giovanni is a mad man! We must warn the authorities." Blue nodded his head, watching the onslaught battle between Ignis and AM2, both pokemon consecutively using their steel type attacks to fwart the other off. Red soon managed to drag Blue out of the secret lab, and through the corridor that it lead to, they walked up the stairs, once they were near the top, a lightning sight could be seen and heard from behind them, one quick glance told Red that Giovanni had added his Persian to the battle, and now Ignis was using its iron tail to stop AM2 and using its thunderbolt to prevent Persian from interfering. "We must help Ignis!" Blue shouted trying to turn back, but Red merely pushed him forward, his face never looked back, only forward, pushing blue up those stairs, and into the main chamber, the fires had been put out but the lumber in the area was still lingering, Red threw a pokeball into the air, whispering a command, and Machamp burst from his pokeball and clapped its hands together to smash all of the lumber, and then falling to the ground where it then began consecutively using its Rock Smash ability to smash the obstacles in their way.
It didn't take long for the two to reach the exit, but unfortunately a Nidoking and a Nidoqueen blocked the exits, which prevented the two from calling forth their pokemon they left to stop the fire. The chuckling from Giovanni could be heard coming from behind them. They turned to see him, his smirk and all, and in front of him are Ignis battling Persian and Armored Mewtwo. Red gritted his teeth and command his Machamp to use mega punch on Persian, then a double battle was held, with Ignis trying to stop the evil mutants attacks, and Machamp trying to distract the gemmed cat from Ignis, Giovanni luaghing the entire time, staring. Not at the battle, but instead the two 17 year olds standing on the other side of the battel field.
Blue looked to Red "What can we do? He's got us trapped in here, we've got nowhere to run, how are we to stop him Red? I don't have many pokemon that can take him on. He's had five years to train his pokemon to max level, and an improved legendary pokemon, I've had to keep my pokemon at league status, never too high and never too low, that's why I haven't used some of my Champion team since then. Red, you're the only one that can save us." Blue pleaded, taking a look behind himself he could see the Nidoroyals, bigger than any other of the Nidoroyals he has seen, staring back at him, as if telling him that his life means nothing to them.
Red walked forward and commanded his pokemon to his side, and Giovanni did the same. " I am an honorable person Giovanni. I shall battle you, three on three." Giovanni's smile only increased in size, and his eyes shone with glee. "Of course Red." He then smiled and sent his Persian forward, and waited. He waited a little too long. "What's wrong Red? Too scared to lose to little old me? Send out your pokemon dammit!" Giovanni shouted to the young boy. "You forget the rules in your old age Giovanni. Three pokemon are to be released from their balls during a battle, you have four, return one or both, you only have one extra slot after all." Red told giovanni, his smirk shrinking. The man knew that if he wanted this battle to be official he had to accept the offical rules, so he frowned at Red and returned both pokemon to their pokeballs "If I see you or your scrawny boyfriend hit for the doors during our battle I swear to god I will rip his hand off!" Giovanni screamed.
"We will not run."
