A/N:... ... O-O-O-OH DEAR ARCEUS. Well, recently FieryCharmeleon left reviews for chapters 3, 4, and 5... this is gonna be a looooooong authors note. *Inhale* *exhale* okay...
Chapter 3: Well, glad to see you're liking the fourth wall breaks :). I do have a sorta sarcastic sense of humor, although I do like to make some other jokes (not saying I like racist and sexist jokes, I hate those). With Charmeleon, I don't really remember the gen 1 anime much. But I did recently start re-watching it (I mean VERY recently, I'm at the Pokemon school episode). But, yeah, that time where a Charmeleon decapitates an Arbok is pretty iconic in meme territory. And that thing about Elmo's... yeah, that excuse "it's hard to think of nice things," to me, is kinda stupid.
Chapter 4: I like that joke with the Lucario ballerina. Thanks for complimenting my joke :)! It was pretty funny to me and it's kinda rare that a chapter has its own running gag (most running gags are for the entire story, and not just 1 chapter). And yeah, I would love to see Mewtwo go full gangnam style (good sense of humor, dude). It is kinda rare (at least for me) to find a comedic story. I agree with that point about St Elmo's Fire. And yeah, we should stop talking about him XD. I first heard about him from someone warning me in a review for Lunar Moon (one of my other stories)... wait he actually did that? Publicly insulting me? THAT BI-
Chapter 5: Okay, not really that butt hurt about him doing that (we know he can't be trusted), but anyways. Did you seriously say "None is better than Miley Cirus with her licks tho"... did that happen? This wasn't really a long review, but the chapter wasn't the longest either. Nice "lets dance" joke!
Well, I should get on with it, because this author's note is 350 words long!
"Alright, let's dance!" Mercury said. The Totem Pokemon started wiggling in the water, trying to dance. Mercury sighed. "I should've known..."

Totem Wishiwashi appeared!
Mercury sent out Thunder.
Thunder used Thunder Wave.
Totem was paralyzed!
Totem Wishiwashi is paralyzed, it can't move!
Totem Wishiwashi called it's ally.
Wishiwashi appeared!
Woo, that was alot the first turn (well, for a first turn). Thunder sent out waves of electricity, paralyzing Wishiwashi, even though it tried its hardest to avoid it. Wishiwashi tried to attack, but it struggled, and eventually gave up. So it cried out for help, and a Wishiwashi came to its assistance. "Ah, 2 against 1, I see!" Mercury said.
Wishiwashi used Aqua Ring.
Thunder used Thunder Shock on Wishiwashi.
Wishiwashi fainted!
{
Thunder grew to level 18!
HP + 2
Sp. ATK + 3
Everything else + 1
}
Totem Wishiwashi used Water Gun.
Why does Totem Wishiwashi know Water Gun? It's an epic creature! The Totem is level 20, meaning it should know Brine, something cooler than Water Gun. But anyways, Totem Wishiwashi's Water Gun (surprisingly) was powerful. Though Thunder didn't feel anything, it almost got wiped out.
Thunder used Thunder Shock.
Totem Wishiwashi used Water Gun.
Thunder fainted!
Mercury sent in Raider.
Mercury knew Totem Wishiwashi could be wiped out with some grass-type moves since it was paralyzed. But Totem Wishiwashi called in an ARCEUS WORMADAM ALOMOMOLA. Alomomola could heal Wishiwashi, so Mercury needed to quickly wipe out Alomomola. Luckily, Razor Leaf hits 2 targets.
Alomomola used Helping Hand.
Raider used Razor Leaf (AOE).
It's super effective!
Totem Wishiwashi healed with an Oran Berry.
Totem Wishiwashi is paralyzed, it can't move!
Raider used razor sharp leaves to jab Alomomola and Wishiwashi. Alomomola helped out Wishiwashi with... I dunno...
Alomomola used Heal Pulse.
Raider used Razor Leaf.
Totem Wishiwashi used Growl.
(X3)
Alomomola fainted!
Raider used Razor Leaf.
Wishiwashi is paralyzed, it can't move!
Raider used Razor Leaf.
Totem Wishiwashi used Soak.
Raider became a water-type (?).
Raider used Razor Leaf.
Totem Wishiwashi used Water Gun.
Stuff just keeps happening for awhile, please stand by.
A few turns later...
Raider used Razor Leaf.
Totem Wishiwashi fainted!
{
Raider grew to level 21!
HP + 3
Defense + 2
Everything else + 1

Rotom flew out of Mercury's bag. "It looks like that Wishiwashi was schooling!" Rotom said. "Hmm..." Mercury responded. "Hey, Mercury! Over here!" Lana said. Mercury went over to Lana. Lana congratulated Mercury, then gave him the Waterium-Z and a fishing rod. "I'll meet you back at the Pokemon Center at route 5." Lana said. Mercury was walking back when he got stopped by someone. "Hey there!" he said. Mercury looked over at him. "Oh, you must be another OC!" Mercury said "Well, technically I'm an OPC, not an OC. An OC is an original character while an OPC is an Original Player Character, meaning a fan character based on the player in the... No what, doesn't matter." The other OC just looked weirdly at Mercury (the OPC) after that nerdy explanation.
"Uh... I guess?" the OC said "You can call me Flame!" Mercury just started at him. "Wow, what a typical OC name." Mercury said. Flame got a little annoyed, especially because Mercury keeps talking about Muking OC's. "Yeah, let's battle even though it can't be shown because I'm not actually a character. Pokemaniac just wants to use some of the other OC's he made!" Flame said. Mercury thought a bit. "He can still wright them." Mercury said "It just won't be in the console style of the battles that are ACTUALLY IN the game! You're kinda there to have a different style for battle, giving the story more variety and thus attracting different types of people that can enjoy the story! But Pokemaniac changed his mind because it was really out of place." Like the other times i broke the 4th wall, that was kinda stupid.
Yeah, I only added Flame so I could use some of my other OC's, but it's also following my goal of changing the story a bit. He just came out of no where, but really, so did Hau. You're just about to leave Iki Town and he just comes and is like "Yo, Bisharp, let's fight."
"So, you just finished your trial, didn't you?" Flame asked. "Uh... yeah." Mercury answered. Flame smiled "I came all the way from Kanto." he said "I have some cool Pokemon that aren't here in Alola. Like Pidgeotto, Nidorina, and Charmeleon (definitly not trying to please one person, Flame is supposed to be a trainer from Kanto, and coincidentally Charmander is my favorite gen 1 starter. Also fit with the name)." They talked a bit while they walked over to the Pokemon Center where Lana was. "Hey Mercury!" Lana said "Who's your friend?" They walked over to Lana. "This is Flame." Mercury said. Lana chuckled. "Hee, what a typical OC name!" Lana said. Flame got mad. "ARCEUS MUKING WORMADAM-IT!" Flame shouted.
"The next trial you'll face is Kiawe's trial at Wela Volcano Park." Lana explained "There were some Sudowoodo (Google's grammar check suggested "Dog wood" for Sudowoodo) back at Paniola Ranch, but I showed them a lesson with my Hydro Vortex. So now, you can go past there!" Flame walked away. "I gotta go do something." He said "See ya later!" Mercury headed to Paniola Ranch. "Hey, Mercury!" Lillie ran over to him "So, did you finish your trial?" Mercury smiled (okay, I correct it, but this is like, the 10th time I've accidentally said 'Mercruy') "Yeah!" he said "It was pretty tough."
Hau ran over to them. "Oh dear Arceus NO!" Mercury thought. "Hey, Millie!" Hau said. Mercury was mad. "GOOD ARCEUS!" he shouted. "So, where ya head'n?" Hau asked. Mercury turned away and left to Royal Avenue with Lillie. They stopped and saw a little girl with a Mudsdale. "Hey a Mudsdale!" Mercury said. Then he noticed Team Skull thugs battling her. "You there, trainer. Can you come to my aid?" the little girl asked. "Oh, uh... sure..." Mercury answered. The two Team Skull thugs were trying to steal a Drifloon. "Yo, yo, yo! Don't turning your backside on us!" one of the thugs said "And YOU!" They looked at Mercury "You're that numskull trainer from Melemele, yo!" The little girl explained a little more. "These scoundrels are Pokemon thieves. And you already know them?" Mercury looked over at her. "Yeah, I know them quite well actually." he answered.
"Yeah, that's right, you do!" one of the thugs said. The little girl looked up at Mercury. "I'm Hapu." she said "Life in the big city sure is something else. Pokemon thieves roam about brazenly. I leave that one to you." Hapu pointed to one of the grunts. The Team Skull grunts got mad. "We're not thieves, yo!" they said "It's a legitimate business!"
[
Team Skull Grunt sent out Drowzee.
Mercury sent out Quake.
Drowzee used Confusion.
Quake used Bulldoze.
Quake used Bulldoze.
Drowzee used Disable.

"With all these losses, we're gonna anger our bosses!" the grunts said in sync "These tears taste like salt, yo! It's all your fault, yo!" Hapu's Mudsdale scared them off. The Drifloon went over to Hapu. "You'll be fine getting home." Hapu said "Glad to see that one will get home on her own." Hapu looked over at Mercury. "I've got to thank you for that. That's a fine Mudbray you got there. Give me your name, trainer." I need a sentence to add something between Hapu's line and Mercury's line but I couldn't think of something, so... "It's Mercury." Mercury said. Hapu thought a bit for some reason. "Mercury, eh? That's a fine name." Hapu said "I like the way you handled yourself in battle. Mudsdale and I are always wandering all about Alola to try to achieve our goals, so perhaps we'll meet again someday."
Okay, so I COMPLETELY forgot Lillie was there with Mercury, so I guess she just didn't exist for a bit. Also, side-note, I think Fearow should be changed to a Dark-type. And WHY IS KANGASKHAN A NORMAL-TYPE!? Everything about him qualifies as a ground-type, why is he still Normal?
Mercury and Lillie continued to Royal Avenue. Lillie stopped at the Pokemon Center and Mercury went to try out a Battle Royal. Mercury noticed someone going into the building, then he noticed it Mr. Edgelord! "Hmph. Why do I do this..." Gladion said "Every time something brings me down, I end up coming right back here again... Come on, Null. Let's go bury our sorrow in the crowd." Gladion went in the building. "Dear Arceus, how edgy can you get?" Mercury thought. Mercury walked in the Battle Royal Dome and walked to the desk. "Glad you could make it!" professor Kukui shouted from up-stairs. Kukui was, for some reason, was wearing a mask. "I'm here today, yeah, to spread the word, oh yeah, about Battle Royal!" Kukui continued "They call me... the Masked Royal! Woo!" Mercury looked at him. "What the heck are you doing, Kukui?" Mercury asked. The "Masked Royal" got mad. "The Masked Royal!" he said. Mercury just gave him a weird look. "So, he's disguising himself." Mercury thought.
"I'm here to teach you, oh yeah, about the battle format passed down in Alola for generations." the "Masked Royal" said "The Pokemon Battle Royal. Woo! 'But, Royal, what's the Battle Royal?' you might ask. Four trainers! Four trainers, yeah, each pick three Pokemon, yeah, for one big Pokemon battle, oh yeah! When one trainer's team is unable to battle, yeah, the Battle Royal ends! Whichever trainer has taken out the most Pokemon, yeah, and has the most Pokemon left will emerge the winner. Woo! First, just give it a shot! Pick your Pokemon, and let's do this!" Hau looked down from the top floor and saw the "Masked Royal" talking to Mercury. "Dude! It's the Masked Royal!" he said to himself "I wanna battle! I wanna battle!" Hau ran down to them. The "Masked Royal" looked over to Edgy Mc Edgeface. "You there! Come join in the fun!" he said "I'll be in the mix, too, yeah. And now we have our foursome. Woo!"
[
Mercury sent out Quake.
Hau sent out Brionne.
Gladion sent out Type:Null.
Masked Royal sent out Rockruff.
Brionne used Aqua Jet on Quake.
Quake fainted!
The battle is over!
Wow, shortest Battle Royal ever! All because I couldn't choose who I used!
]
the "Masked Royal" said some stuff about having fun, then some tan guy said something. "You were on fire during that battle." he said in a very monotone voice "I hope you bring that fire with you and burn up my trial." Mercury realized he was probably the next trial captain. "Oh, you must be Kiawe! Lana told me about you!" Mercury said. "yes, I am. You can get to Wela Volcano Park from route 7. I'll be waiting on the peak. If you plan to see your island challenge through to the end, climb to the top with strongest team!" He walked away. After a little more talking, Mercury left.
Mercury walked over to route 7 with Lillie and NOT Hau because at this point he started to avoid him. They got to Wela Volcano Park where Mercury was going to do Kiawe's trial. At the peak Kiawe was waiting for them. "Hello, Mercury." Kiawe said "Welcome to my trial." Kiawe explained the trial. Mercury needed to watch Marowak dance, then notice the differences in their next dance. The first time was fine, and Mercury got it right. The next one, a hiker photo-bombed it. Then, the final time, there was a Salazzle, presumably the Totem Pokemon.
After Mercury answered correctly, the Totem jumped to attack...
I think I've become a professional cliffhangerer. This is the second time in the row that I had a chapter end in a cliffhanger at the Totem Pokemon. So, sorry I've been putting this one off. It's been awhile since the last chapter. I really don't have much to say. This was only 84% of my goal, but that's okay! I don't remember if I said this, but I have a community for Pokemon. I also have a poll going on for the next story in the Pokemon Adventure series. That's a long time from now, but I had the idea that people will vote while this one is being made, then when it's finished, I look at the poll and decide what it'll be. I also have a forum! 2 of 'em! One for ideas on this story: Pokemon Story Ideas. The others an RP for Pokemon: Pokemon Universe RP. Well, enough advertising, time for the CHARACTER CHECKUP!
