"Ok, this battle shall be one on one. Latias vs. Wigglytuff. Whoever wins this battle, the loser shall leave the other alone and never come to bother him or her again." Aqua announced and they nodded. "Alright then, start the battle!" Anzu nodded, geared up to make the first move. 'Maybe if I can, Princess can use sing and they will all fall asleep. When that happens, I can steal Yugi and place him somewhere else where Yami, Aqua or Yugi's pathetic friends can't find him. Then I can have all the chances I need to be with my elite trainers without them being attracted to that runt.' she thought. "Ok Princess, start this battle off with Doubleslap!" Anzu called, the balloon pokémon went to attack Latias but she floated up and Princess missed. It was Yugi's turn to make a move but with this being his first time battling, more or less using a legendary pokémon like Latias, he didn't know what to do. He barely even knew what attacks Latias knows. 'If I don't figure them out, I will lose.'
Latias saw his worry and cooed softly. /Don't worry, I'll help you./ A voice whispered and he looked up to Latias. "Did you say something?" Yugi asked the Eon pokémon. She nodded and he smiled softly. "Thanks." Latias relayed the attacks she knew to Yugi and he was prepared for the battle. "Ok Latias, use Dragonbreath!" Yugi called and she nodded as she let out a stream of fire to hit Princess. She cried out in pain and soon, was paralyzed. "Oh no! Princess!" she cried as the balloon pokémon tried to move from the strong paralysis. "Great job, Latias!" Yugi said happily and she crooned in happiness as well. Anzu growled and knew this would be the best time before Latias can finish them off. "Ok, Princess, use Sing!" Princess did as told, singing a song that was making everyone but Anzu drowsy. Aqua had a feeling this wasn't going to turn out well and reached for one of his pokeballs. "Come out...Arcane." Aqua whispered before he fell asleep, the pokeball rolling from his hand. Anzu grinned and brought back Princess before grabbing Yugi and leaving. 'Now all I need to do is hide him somewhere and I know the perfect place.' Anzu thought as she called out her Pelipper and flew off to Sootopolis. 'They would never find him in the Cave of Origin now that it's uninhabited.' Aqua's Arcanine came out from his pokeball as it rolled to a stop and he looked up to see Anzu flying off and growled. Turning to the sleeping group, he roared, causing everyone to wake up. Diamond looked around and growled as well. "That little witch! She put us to sleep and ran off with Yugi!" she growled and both Yami and Aqua were worried. Aqua looked to Arcane. "Arcane, did you happen to see where they were heading?" Aqua asked and he nodded as he motioned into the direction of Hoenn.
"Why would she be heading there?" Ryou asked. "From what I know, Hoenn can have many places where she could hide Yugi, especially if one of her prissy Pokémon knows Secret Power then she could make a hideout where we can't find her. But enough talk, we need to go find them and fast." Yami said. He took out a pokeball and threw it up into the air. "Let's go, Scar!" he called and a Skarmory that had a jagged scratch over his left eye, hence his name, came from his pokeball and landed beside him. "We need to hurry, Scar. Let's fly!" Yami said as he climbed onto his back. He flew off and the others followed behind him on their own pokémon while Aqua rode on Arcane's back.

Pelipper landed and let her trainer climb off her back and she headed into the Cave of Origin after calling back Pelipper. 'I still can't believe Diamond caught the legendary Pokémon from here.' Anzu thought as she looked down to the deep pit of water where Kyogre once resided in. 'Well, at least I know one thing, if I throw him in here, by the time his friends find him, he'll be dead and gone.' Unbeknownst to her, a black form watched her from the shadows of the cave and waited to make its move.

They soon arrived at Littleroot Town and landed.
"Ok, there are many places she would go to. Jou, you and Kaiser can take the northern routes. Malik and Topaz can go to Dewford and Pacifidlog. Ryou, you and I can head to the west. Yami, the only thing I can think about that Anzu could be is the Cave of Origin in Sootopolis. Check there first and if she's not there then you might have to figure out something else that may be around there other than the Sky Pillar. She couldn't know where that is so we might just luck out at Cave of Origin if we're talking about getting rid of your worst enemy." Diamond suggested as they nodded. "Let's get going then before Anzu hurts Yugi!" Malik claimed as Taro and Tisew flew off, Marik and Toben following behind them. Jou called out Tri, his Dodrio and got up on his back. "Let's get goin', Tri! To Oldale Town!" Jou said and the triple bird pokémon ran off. Kaiser called out Psi, his Kadabra and told him to use teleport.
"Don't know why he didn't just wait." Seto said as he, Ruby and Kaiser were prepared to be teleported to Oldale Town. "Next to his Sandslash, Talar, he cares for Tri." Kaiser explained as they disappeared from view. "Come on out, Lugia!" Diamond called as the huge diving pokémon came from his pokeball. He leaned down and nuzzled her and she smiled as she pat his head. "Do you mind giving us a ride to Rustboro City?" she asked and he nodded as he knelt down, plates folding back so Ryou and Diamond could climb on. Once they were on, he got up and flew off. Yami brought back Scar and called for Latios while Aqua summoned Latias and they both flew off to Sootopolis.

"Well, as much as I want someone to be here and watch your demise, your friends may be on their way here if they're not trying to look for me somewhere else. Be seeing you never again, Yugi." Anzu sneered and threw the sleeping teen into the pit. He landed in with a splash and sunk fast with his wet clothes weighing him down. The shadow finally made a move and rushed at Anzu, knocking her over. She yelped when she hit the ground and looked up. Standing before her was a shiny Arcanine, fur a charcoal black. He growled and she glared at him. "I know you can't be Aqua's Arcanine cause his is the basic coat of a regular Arcanine. Where could you have come from?" she questioned to herself but only received a growl in reply. "Well, no bother. If you're here to save Yugi, I will have to defeat you." She claimed as she sent out her Mawile, Star. "Let's defeat this pokémon, Star!" she said and the deceiver pokémon growled at the Arcanine. "Go Star, use Bite!" She commanded and Star charged at the Arcanine, the jaw like horn positioned to attack. The pokémon jumped out the way and used Fire Blast. The attack hit with dead accuracy and the deceiver pokémon flew back to hit the wall. "Come on, Star! Get up!" She cried and she got up once again, glaring at the other wild pokémon. "Ok, if that didn't work, use Crunch!" Star went to attack the other pokémon again. He dodged again and with a final Flamethrower attack, Star went down. "You will pay for this!" she growled as she brought back Star and was about to send out another pokémon but cried out as the black Arcanine charged at her, knocking her hard into the rock wall.
Once she was dealt with, he dove into the pit of water, hoping that the young trainer didn't drown.

Yami and Aqua landed by the entrance to the Cave of Origin and Latios flew inside quickly, motioning for them to wait outside. Yami was worried as he stood outside. 'Please, Yugi. Please don't be dead.' The black Arcanine spotted Yugi tangled up in the seaweed that was at the bottom and seemed to be either still asleep or unconscious but was struggling to get air now. He swam down and started to bite and claw at the seaweed, trying to free the boy from the tangling seaweed. Above, Latios looked around and saw Anzu on the ground, unconscious before turning his head to the pool. Seeing the bubbles rising from the pit of water, he cried out and folded his forearms and dove down into the water, seeing Yugi and the black Arcanine. He cried out once more and the Arcanine looked up to him. He motioned to Yugi tangled up in the seaweed and Latios nodded before his eyes started to glow a soft blue.
Outside, Yami and Aqua waited before seeing Latias' eyes starting to become a soft blue. "Sight sharing," Aqua whispered as the scenery changed and gasped when they saw what Latios was seeing right now. "No, Yugi!" Yami yelled as Latias broke away from the image and picked him up along with Aqua and flew inside as well before Yugi could drown. Latios started to help the Arcanine with freeing Yugi but the more they did so, the more the seaweed started to worsen. The Arcanine started to run out of air and swam back up to the surface, jumping out and shook the water from his pelt. He looked to the entrance when he heard a shrill cry and saw Latias come in. Latias placed Yami and Aqua down before she dove into the water as well. Aqua walked over to the black Arcanine and saw that Anzu was lying up against the far wall, unconscious. "Did you do this?" Aqua asked and the Pokémon nodded. Aqua could clearly see the worry in the great Pokémon's eyes and knew that he was worried for Yugi and it was a surprising predicament seeing that not many wild Pokémon would come to help a trainer unless it was those that weren't afraid of people or lived among them.
They soon heard a cry and both Latios and Latias came from the water, Latias holding Yugi's unconscious form. Latias brought him to Yami and he wrapped his arms around the shivering boy quietly, glad that he was alive and safe. He turned to the Arcanine and saw he must've help out seeing as Anzu was behind everything. "I thank you, Arcanine, for helping him." He nodded and Latias looked into his eyes, seeing there was another reason why he came and helped Yugi. /Yami, this Arcanine came to help Yugi for more than his life; he wanted to become his partner. He knows that Yugi is capable of taking good care of him since he traveled all the way from the Kanto regions, training long and hard to resist the effectiveness of water to find the perfect trainer./ Latias spoke. "He picked the right person, then. Come on, let's get to Rustboro and see if Diamond and Ryou are still there. We got Yugi now and we should get him to a Pokémon Center quickly." Yami said as he climbed onto Latios' back and he flew out.
Aqua got onto Latias' back as well and told the Arcanine to grab Anzu before they left, knowing she will have to answer a lot of questions once Yugi and his friends regroup. That or be carted off to the police for what she did out of her jealousy.

When they reached Rustboro, Diamond and Ryou were waiting by the Pokémon center. Ryou gasped when he saw Yugi soaked to the bone.
"What happened?!"
"When Anzu commanded her Wigglytuff to put us all to sleep and not just Latias, she ran off to Sootopolis with Yugi. She tried to drown him in the pit of water where Kyogre was resting. But luckily for him, this shiny Arcanine came all the way from the Kanto region. He helped save him from Anzu before she could get away and not leave any trace that she even went there. I have a feeling that if we came any later and this Arcanine wasn't there to help, Yugi would've been dead." Yami explained as he looked down to Yugi with care. "I can't believe she would do such a thing. She must be really jealous that you two are so drawn to him and wanted to do something to get rid of the competition." Diamond murmured as she pulled out her pokégear. "I'll go ahead and call the others. You better get Yugi into some warm clothes and into bed before he gets a cold." she spoke. He nodded as he, Ryou, the shiny Arcanine and Aqua went inside.
Nurse Joy looked up and gasped as well. "Oh dear, what happened?" she asked. "My friend here almost got killed by this girl here," Yami spoke as she pointed to Anzu who was still on the Arcanine's back. "Obviously, she was driven by jealousy because we focused all our attention on him." Aqua continued. "Now that is very wrong, she shouldn't have done such a thing even though I wouldn't blame your young friend. I almost didn't realize that you two were the great trainers of all regions and any girl would be jealous if you didn't focus your attention on them." Nurse Joy said. "Would you like me to call Officer Jenny to take her away?" Aqua nodded. "Yes, maybe she will learn the error of her ways after a little time in jail." he murmured and she nodded as she called for Chansey to take Yugi to get changed into some warmer clothes and call Officer Jenny. "Would you like to stay with him?" Nurse Joy asked again and they nodded. "I'll wait outside for the others, Yami." Diamond said and they nodded as they went into the guest room to watch over Yugi. Unknown to them, a figure watched them from another building and when he saw Diamond, he grinned. 'So, that's the famous girl that was able to catch almost all the legendary pokémon. Including Kyogre and Groudon. The leader will be happy that he will be able to complete his plan of making this world a better place for all land pokémon. All we need to do is get that Groudon before Team Wave finds out that's she back and tries to go after Kyogre and turn this world into a place for all water pokémon.' The Team Magma grunt thought as he left. 'Maybe that girl that they seemed to hate so much can help us achieve that goal.' He thought once more as he left from Rustboro City and to the Team Magma hideout.

Yami and Aqua stayed by Yugi's side the rest of the night, waiting for the smaller boy to wake up. After Anzu was taken away, Diamond and the others went to bed, seeing as this was a long day with everything that happened. Yami was already asleep but Aqua still stayed up. Yugi shifted a bit before he woke up, rubbing his eyes quietly as he sat up. Aqua looked to him and smiled. "How are you feeling, Yugi?" he asked. "I'm ok, just a little cold. What happened?"
"Well, during the battle with Anzu, she commanded Princess to use Sing and put us all to sleep. Once we were all asleep, she took you away to Hoenn and tried to drown you in the water pit in the Cave of Origin. However her plans were foiled by a shiny Arcanine that came to help you and knocked out Anzu before she could get away with it. She's currently in jail now for what she did and the black Arcanine came back with us; he wants to become your partner." Aqua explained. "Really? Why is he a different color and why does he want me to be his trainer?" Yugi asked. "Yes, like the red Gyarados, some Pokémon around the Kanto and Johto regions may have different coloring which make them special, a rarity among the pokémon themselves. You are a great trainer Yugi even if you don't want to battle other people. Your pokémon knows your feelings and will do anything to help and protect you. Yami and I will do the same for you as well." Aqua answered and Yugi smiled as he got up and hugged him.
"Thank you, Aqua, for being here with me. I thought I would never catch your attention as easy as this and I almost gave up with trying to at least have you two notice me." Yugi whispered. Aqua hugged him closer. "Don't worry, Yugi. We never thought that we would meet someone as innocent and cute as you. We want to do anything that will make you feel more comfortable around us. We don't want you to worry about what others think." Aqua said and Yugi nodded. The Arcanine padded into the room and whimpered softly as he walked over to them. "Well, here's your new pokémon now." he said as he let go of Yugi so he can meet the other pokémon. Yugi walked over to the fire Pokémon and he whimpered softly again as he leaned down and nuzzled him. Yugi laughed softly as he pat Arcanine's mane. "You really do want to become my partner, don't you?" Yugi asked and he nodded. "Then I guess I can't deny your request. You are very beautiful that you may just be able to help me win a contest one day." he said as he ran a hand over the Pokémon's sleek black coat. Arcanine barked in happiness and nuzzled Yugi again.
"So, what are you going to name him?"
"I'll name him Atra." He replied as he continued to pet the large Pokémon's back.
"Well, it's getting late, Yugi. We should get to bed. Maybe tomorrow, we can help you build up Atra's abilities so you can have him join in a normal rank pokémon contest." Yugi nodded as headed for bed once again and Aqua went to his own bed. They both fallen asleep but Aqua had one more thought before he went to sleep. 'I'm glad we were able to meet, Yugi.'

Zypher: Well, that's it for now. Anzu got sent to jail and Team Magma has plans to steal the legendary Pokémon from Diamond. And yes, I changed Team Aqua to Team Wave because I think it would be kinda silly to use the same name for the team and Aqua at the same time. If you never heard about the different color Pokémon in gold and silver, they are rare to find unlike the red Gyarados in the Lake of Rage.
I used the shiny Arcanine since I happen to have one on my gold version (and I love him too, always makes me think of a black tiger). Also, I know many will be asking that Arcanine can't dive or swim because they are fire based Pokémon but I'm making Atra a very special Arcanine for Yugi so he knows how to dive, swim and not be too affected by water or water attacks like Sandshrew from one of the Pokémon episodes if you've seen it before. But anyways, please review and I'll get started with the next chapter for some of my other stories.
