Besides saying 'Pokemon Sun & Moon' kicks every kind of conceivable ass imaginable, I don't really have much to say in this Author's Note. So, I'll summarize all the things I think make Sun and Moon awesome! Alolan Forms (Regional Variants), Z-Rings + Z-Crystals, and Z-Moves because fuck Mega Evolution since Z-Moves are so OP! Not to mention that Z-Moves work for literally any Pokemon with some having exclusive Z-Moves, unlike only nearly 50 Pokemon being able to Mega Evolve. Alola in general, the Island Trials, Ride Pokemon, the new Abilities, Moves, and Alolan Pokemon, too. If Pokemon keeps throwing new shit at us, then I'm going to run out of room to incorporate all the new things in this story.

And we're getting Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon!? With a whole lot of NEW shit!? My god, yes.

Creating Ripples

Rey's (Stephan's) POV

Okay, this is going to get old fast, now, I was irritated which is not a good way to feel after you've woken up. Why do I feel irritated, you ask? Well, as before, I found Mira (who came back home through the night) snuggled up to me again. For one, I'm just glad that I was slowly losing the urge to rut her crazy if my absence of morning wood was any indication. Though for two, Kai was snuggled into my left side…okay, snuggle is too cutesy to call it. He was kinda just lying on my left side with him snoring in my ear. And if that wasn't enough, for some magical reason, I had Jynx curled up on my stomach, and he most certainly seemed comfortable. He has never slept in my bed before, especially with me in it. Sure, he'll jump up into it and will lie down with me (and by that, I mean napping on me) for a little before headed off on his merry way somewhere else, but this? I was lost…and trapped by three fuzzy little creatures.

But god, I still felt wiped. Not only was I busy messaging Thomas and even Jakob back and forth through the night, Kai had me binge watch up to THIRTY-NINE fucking episodes of Naruto! All the way up to, ironically, where Sasuke defeats Yoroi with the 'Lion's Barrage'! I still remember Kai's exclamations of "So that's where it came from!" and "This is how you watched it from your perspective? I saw it in first-person!".

Lucky.

I seriously need to get him into other anime and fast. Same with Mira, who also had taken a huge shining to Naruto and watched with us until the sun was starting to come up and then we all passed out. I really had to be knocked out if I didn't hear Jynx barging through my door, as usual. For real, Dragon Ball is next on the list. Gotta start small before one can jump into Dragon Ball Z. Then I'll have him, or I guess them now, swap through Fairy Tail, One Piece, Toriko, Digimon,all of those. Even old school ones like Yu Yu Hakusho, Inuyasha, Hajime no Ippo, etc. Lord, I await the day for when I tune them into watching Pokémon! I'm sure he and Mira will get a massive kick out of that and even more from the games. Shit, but while I'm talking about anime, there's also a bunch of cartoons on the list. You know what? I'll just have them watch things with me on our own time.

Turning my head to my desk, I managed to grab my phone without bothering Kai and checked the time. 1:17 PM and a single missed call. I sigh and place it down before looking to my three non-human companions. Since I'm more awake now, I can understand that this is a pretty precarious situation. If any of the family were to just barge into my room (Since knocking is illegal apparently) I don't think that I would be able to explain how I have a weird dog and an even weirder pink cat in my bed. Jynx wouldn't surprise anyone since we always are together. They would just take this as our 'relationship getting stronger' or something. Not wanting to stay in that position for too long I slowly sat up, which woke up Jynx, and he moved down to the area of the bed between my legs. He gave a large silent yawn and stretched his back out. He then stretched out his hind-legs splaying his toes before climbing up to my chest and purring.

I smirked at the obvious want for attention and scratched at his head which made him purr louder. His eyes closed as well, a sign of the obvious love for this affection. Mira gave a small sigh from her position on the bed and turned around. Jynx's eyes opened as he shifted his gaze to her and…can cats get upset? I have no idea but I felt a small shift in his Aura that 'told' me he was not impressed that she was there as he promptly jumped off my best and slinked off outside my door.

"Okay," Was my response to that as I slowly got out of bed, making sure to not disturb to two sleeping Pokemon. Feeling the call of nature coming on, I gave a big yawn and walked to my door before opening it, and then closing it afterwards so there would be no accidental glances at the sleeping Pokemon. About 20 seconds later, I smelled food being cooked from the kitchen which diverted my attention drastically. My stomach audibly rumbled at the thought of eating something which shocked me to be honest. I mean my stomach doesn't usually rumble to the point where I can hear it a lot. It's usually up to me to decide if I need to put something in it but ever since my Pokemon half has been brought out of hiding, I think my already obscene eating habits have somehow…got worse. Last night, it took four helpings of dinner back to back to get me full. Of course, I had to save some for the family and Kai had some of my food too.

I think human food is his favorite thing in the world now. Anyway, after a quick scan of the house with 'Aura Perception' and thinking to myself exactly how beyond useful sensing presences can be, I made my way downstairs where everyone was. My grandfather was sitting in the living room watching the big screen as usual, while grandma, uncle, and Crystal were in the kitchen.

"He's alive!" Charles exclaimed with a grizzled smile as he saw me come down the steps. I smiled back and yawned again as I reached the wooden floor. "How was your sleep, man?"

"Pretty good. Really hungry though." I replied.

Charles chuckled and said, "Well grandma made lunch so help yourself. Your sister and uncle are already in there."

"Okay." I turned, heading into the kitchen which was about 10 feet away at the most. The kitchen was a decent size, that was big enough to fit 7 people at the most. The white stove was against the wall closest to the right-hand side while there was a wooden shelf that held spices, cans, and cookbooks to my left. The sink was across from me on the opposite wall that was attached to a long counter which reached the ends of both the left and right walls on that side. One half of the marble counter could be used as a table with two chairs under it. There was a passage area that led into another stretch of the kitchen which headed into the dining room. My grandmother was sitting at the counter watching the mini flat-screen and having a plate of food in front of her. Crystal was sitting at the circular table in the center of the kitchen, which also had two seats, while my uncle was at the stove fixing his plate. He was the first one to spot me at the entrance and grinned at me while moving in my direction.

He reached a calloused hand out and grabbed at the area where my neck met my shoulder and gripped which had me wincing. "Mornin' fat man. It's Tuesday." He grinned wider as I slap his hand away and moved to the sink.

"No, it's not. It doesn't work on short breaks!" I replied to him as he laughed and took his plate up to his room, while I washed my hands. What didn't' work, you ask? Dink discovered that when I have long breaks from school I can lose track of the days that past. It can be a Tuesday but I'll think I'm either a few days ahead or behind, which had me stop to reprise my response before I spoke. I think the fact that I needed to think about what day it was at the time is much funnier to him than me getting the answer wrong.

"It's about time, naked boy!" Grandma said mirthfully, which was one of her nicknames for me, that's become one of the more prominent ones. Obviously, my lack of clothes sans my boxers. I just gave a big yawn and smiled at her. "Food's on the stove and table. Help yourself."

"Thanks," I said.

"Morning, Stephen," Crystal said, "how was your sleep?"

"Ugh…I stayed up late watching a show. So, I didn't go to sleep until the sun started coming up." I replied as I dried off my hands and grabbed a plate. I would make sure to fill it full of food, which were tasty-looking sandwiches that were sliced in half, dill pickles, and potato chips. Sure, it might sound common but when your chef of a grandmother cooks a common lunch, you would ditch Olive Garden. I promise and that's coming from someone whose been there…once.

"Were you on the phone last night? I could hear voices from your room," Crystal said which slightly caught me off guard though I guess I couldn't have fully ruled that out. Kai was loud at some points when watching Naruto. I could understand why though, since I reacted the exact same way when I first watched it. Mira was more composed but she still jerked and gasped happily at some things as well. Quickly, covering up my surprise I just fixed my plate and nodded without looking at her.

"Yeah, I was. I had the phone of speaker is all and it was a three-way call." Such an easy lie that Crystal couldn't disprove. She's smart…at times, but she was gullible. My grandmother knew that I always talked to Jonta'e and Mohammed all the time so she just thought it was them, I'm assuming. I took 4 sandwiches with two of them being for me and one being for Kai, and Mira. Grabbing two paper towels, I then headed back up to my room and opened the door before closing it back all the way. I saw Kai and Mira both sitting up in my bed and yawning. I smiled to them both and sat the plate down on the table, before opening my laptop.

Kai yawned again and looked to me a bit groggy. "Mmm…morning, Rey. Mira."

"Morning, Kai. Rey." Mira said to both him and me with me smiling to them.

"Morning, you two. Bet you're wiped after yesterday." I got back on my email and clicked on one that Jakob sent me. I had a passing thought on telling him about what the hell's been happening with me ever since Mira came into my life. But I decided to turn against the idea since summer is just around the corner and he would come to live here himself. I figured that it would be better if I showed him first-hand about my powers, Kai, Mira, and all this other crazy stuff. But then my thoughts wondered to Jonta'e and Mohammed. It wasn't even a matter of 'if' but 'when' I was going to tell those two because we all promised each other that we would tell the other if something relating to us getting powers or something would ever happen. Maybe it sounds stupid but with best friends, these are the kind of secrets you don't want to keep secret. And it's not like telling them about Kai, Mira, and my demigod-ass is going to have any kind of crazy effects on the world. It'll just solidify to them that the Multiverse is an actual thing. Even Exceniter was on the list of people to tell but we never hung out together outside of school. That was going to have to change one of these days.

"You bet we were," Mira drawled out a little as she floated up, "who knew that watching TV was so entertaining? No wonder humans make sure a big deal out of it. But that Naruto character? Now that is a goldmine!"

Kai grinned and nodded in agreement before standing up on the bed. He crossed his paws together which forced me to give him my full attention. "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" His body phased as two similar-looking copies appeared next to him in the same pose. "Jutsu's are so awesome! I'm going to use 'Double Team' even more now!" Kai yelled with glee which made Mira laugh at his enthusiasm of Naruto's universe. I gave a fake sigh to him.

"Nice use of that move but calling it something else isn't going to change its effects. I don't think those copies can even hurt someone." I said dismissively though they both gave me a stare afterwards, as if I had said the wrong thing.

"Huh? What do you mean? Of course, they can hurt someone." Kai said. I blinked in confusion and looked to Kai's copies before looking back to the original him in the middle, even though his actual body was still blurred to simulate the copies.

"What? Are you serious? But I've never seen anything about 'Double Team' damaging others. I mean…I figured that when using a move while also using 'Double Team' the copies would make illusionary copies of the move but they wouldn't hurt. Just use to throw off your opponent."

Mira shook her head. "While that's a pretty interesting and sound explanation, the fact of the matter is the copies do hold a physical presence. Using a move while using 'Double Team' will multiply the move just like the copies. So, if Kai created 10 copies and had them all use 'Blaze Kick' then you would be getting 10 brutally burning kicks to the face. But I don't blame you for thinking what you do. Few know about that move's true capabilities and it is usually used to cause a diversion, not for outright attacks. Add to it that the copies can't act on their own without the original acting first or that they're so easy to take out, and you have a move without much potential. I'm jealous of Naruto in that regard. His clones are all the benefits and more. Same with any other cloning technique in that universe." Oh, she must be referring to Zabuza's 'Water Clone Jutsu'. That was the only other cloning technique they saw so from her perspective, it would make sense if there were other variants.

Kai's clones vanished as he nodded to me. "I definitely want to see if I can make 'Double Team' like that! I don't care how long it takes but I want to try it. Besides, didn't you tell me last night that you were able to walk on that mountain because you got the idea from Naruto? Who's to say I can't do the same with making my 'Double Team' clones solid? Can you just imagine the- " he stopped mid-sentence as his nose twitched. Wondered when he'd smell the food. Mira was doing the same action as they looked on my desk, seeing the plate of sandwiches.

"Mmm~ That smells good!" Kai exclaimed as he hopped onto the table from his position and looked down to the plate. Mira floated over my right shoulder and looked to the sandwiches.

"You both want one?" I asked, already preparing the paper towels that I wanted them to eat over. Nodding to me, like I knew they would, I moved the paper towels to the other side of the table and picked up two sandwiches. I placed one on each and gestured with my head for them to get them. Kai jumped to the ground before jumping to the other chair while Mira levitated to hers. They grabbed the food (Mira using 'Psychic' since her paws were too small) and took a single bite out of them. Apparently, from the sounds and expressions of the two Pokemon, they loved them.

"Sweet Arceus! This is…this is…" Kai spoke before his muzzle dived back into the food and he began to outright murder the sandwich. He was getting some mayo stuck in the fur around his mouth though it blended it pretty well, while Mira ate slowly. Her bites were small since she had a smaller muzzle but I could tell that she made sure to eat as much of the snack as she could. Bread crumbs stuck a little in her pink fur while she shivered at the amazing mix of flavors.

I grinned and said, "Must be good then." Following their leads, I grabbed one and bit into it, having a much more controlled reaction then the two of them. Honestly, this isn't the first time I've had sandwiches likes these from my grandmother so I was used to them tasting as awesome as they were. That didn't mean I was ever going to get over how they tasted. I loved them just as much as my Riolu partner and Mew sister. I ate and multi-tasked with Fanfiction sending a few messages to Jakob who then messaged back. Hm? I just got one from Omniarc (Thomas) too. I opened the message and began to read through it, before typing up a response.

"This is so delicious! Oh, wow! Who made it!?" Mira exclaimed to me, as she took more bites out of the sandwich, and it was then I placed a finger over her lips.

"Will you both quiet the hell down? My uncle could come down at any time and any of the others could come up stairs. Just eat and speak lowly, especially since any of the others would only hear Pokespeech from the two of you." Damn, with the way they were yelling their heads off, you'd think they never ate anything before. I mean, just last night they had some home cooking and I had to shut them both up then, so how come they haven't learned their lesson? I shook my head and ate through my meal while the other two finished themselves.

Kai looked to me and asked, "So what are we going to do today, partner?" He grinned as he emphasized that we were a team and a damn good one at that. While that fight with Machoke wasn't glamourous, it sure as hell was something I had dreamed of being part of. A no-holds-bared battle with super powers involved. The Pokemon were just a massive bonus. Hopefully, we wouldn't have too many of those too early. At least not until we're tougher than we currently are.

"Well I know for sure that I'm going to teach you the Surface Walking exercise."

He gasped audibly and began bouncing on the chair a little. "Really?"

I smirked. "Figured you'd like that. I decided that anything that I learn how to do with my Aura, you're going to learn how to do it too. So, when it comes to walking on vertical surfaces or water than- "

"Water!?" Kai exclaimed before his paws shot to his mouth, remembering that I told him to shut it with the shouting. Mira laughed a little at him, knowing exactly just how surprised she was, when she saw me training in that herself.

"That's right, we haven't gotten to that episode yet. Well, the second level is being able to walk on the surface of water and I'm gonna teach you how to do that. It'll definitely get that Aura Control of yours to a higher level and I'm speaking from experience." I said which had him tilt his head a little.

"Besides walking on water being awesome, how much will the Surface Walking training affect my control? I'm already pretty good at using what I'm at least capable of, like sensing emotions and presences at a wide range."

"Dude, you have got to teach me how to read emotions. Anyway, when we were fighting Machoke and I got hit with his 'Flamethrower' I managed to divert Aura to my arms to make them tougher and lessen the damage. And I even infused it into my foot when I used that last 'Mega Kick' for higher impact. Basically, I'm saying that learning to charge your body or body parts with Aura consciously will make you faster, more durable, hit harder, and probably other things that I just haven't discovered yet." I explained more to him, watching his eyes get wider with each finished sentence.

Mira looked impressed too though it was funny to see her intrigued look with her mouth full of food. I waited until she ate what she had. "Goodness, Rey, I think you're going to be redefining the ability of Pokemon entirely if you keep this up! And since I can also use Aura myself then I can learn these things as well!"

Kai's paws balled into fists, with his surprised expression turning into elated determination. "I keep thinking that you're the most awesome partner ever and you just keep getting even more awesome! I can't believe that you're going to teach us how to do something like walking on water!"

I laughed a bit and nodded at him. "Yup! You're going to get all the fun tricks. Though, while you're doing that, I need to get in training of my own. Maybe learning a couple of new moves while practicing the ones that I already have."

"What moves were you thinking of learning?" Mira asked me.

"Well I don't need anything else to attack with since that's all of my current moves. So, something defensive like 'Protect' would be fantastic. And since we were on the topic of 'Double Team' never being used to its fullest potential, I'd like to have a go at that one too. Who knows? Maybe I can find a way to create solid clones that can think by themselves and everything. But until then, having an evading technique is also useful." I said the last part as a joke though I honestly did have a deep curiosity to see if that was possible. If I could clone myself then that would prove there was no limit to, not just my powers, but to all Pokemon! It's shit like that which shows people who claim that they would be fantastic Trainers in 'real life' just because they're great at the games won't know how to do shit in an actual battle. There is no-such-thing as 'turns', a '4 move limit', no 'levels', no 'stats', nothing! Unless people were hardcore watchers of the anime, then they wouldn't have any semblance on how to use actual Pokemon in battles. Hell, they wouldn't even know which Pokéball held which Pokemon, unless they memorized them.

Mira nodded in agreement, most of her sandwich…missing? The hell? When did she eat that much? "I agree. Those are some good moves to learn. And mastering the moves that you already know is also a good idea too. From all the things that you've told and showed Kai and myself, us Pokemon are more capable than even we thought. I mean, I never would've imagined that you could use Aura to walk on water which still blows me away. Guess we could all learn a thing or two during training today."

At that moment, my phone began ringing. From the ringtone, I knew who was calling without having to even look at the phone and I mentally kicked myself for forgetting about that one crucial thing.

'Jonta'e. Fuck, I forgot to call him.' I picked up the phone before telling the two Pokemon to not make any kind of noise, and for them to hide if Mira sensed anyone coming towards my room. I answered and turned on the speaker so that they could hear as well. "Hello?"

*Dude, what is up? Been trying to call you since yesterday.*

"Yeah, sorry 'bout that. I've been kinda…caught up in some stuff. But I was gonna call you after I was done eating here."

*You never call me. Am I not good enough for you!? Is that it!? How come I always have to call you just so we can talk!?* He exclaimed in a fake dramatic tone. It caught Kai off-guard while Mira rose an eyebrow…if she had any to raise, I mean.

"Nigga, you live literally up the hill. Forget driving, I could just walk to your house." I deadpanned as him.

*I'm not talking about coming to my house, I'm talking about talking on the phone. Though I guess I understand since you don't really do much of anything.*God, if only he knew. Mira and Kai were both grinning at me and I fought to not chuckle a bit. *But for real though, I wanted to talk about Wednesday.*

That killed my smile. Shit, I think my heart was beating a few ticks faster. I mean, I knew this was going to be brought up but still. This was 'Step 1' at me about to explain that I have super powers now. "Y-yeah. And?"

*…What do you mean 'and'? Steph, you punched someone through a fucking window! Do you have any idea how much force you would need to do something like that!?*

I inwardly groaned and rubbed my forehead. "No, but I'm pretty sure that you do."

*That's not true, I don't know everything.*

"I never said you knew everything, but you do know a bunch of miscellaneous things about random stuff. Either about things you've researched, heard of, or seen accidentally and just remember the facts about it."

*That's…pretty accurate. I told you that, right? *

"Yes."

*Anyway, that doesn't change the fact that we need to talk about that. Mohammed wanted to talk about that, too. *

I nodded but mainly to myself. "I figured as much. Yeah, the three of us can meet up today…but I want us to do this in the forest."

*How come?*

"Well, I have a bunch of other news that I think the two of you are gonna find interesting. But I think it would be best if I told the two of you guys there. It might sound pretty crazy, like I have government secrets or some shit but I promise neither of you will regret it." Mira and Kai then looked surprised at my claim, knowing exactly what I was talking about. As for Jonta'e he was silent for a few seconds, probably trying to digest exactly what I've just told him. I don't blame him exactly, since when do I of all people have info that I don't want it to be heard within earshot of anyone else.

*…What? Um…how serious are we talking here?*

"Jonta'e, legit. No bullshit. World…changing. The only reason I'm about to tell you and Mohammed is because you guys are my best friends, and we all promised that we would share even the craziest things with each other. This is…it's crazier than crazy. So, I'll call him up, tell him I'm going to be picking up him and you and then we'll head to the forest. Get it?"

*You're...you're serious?*I could hear eagerness mixed in with the confusion. *Okay then. Guess I'll get dressed and ready for you to come by. Shit, now you got me excited. I hope you don't disappoint me with this news, that sounds like you found the cure for AIDS.*

I let out an audible snort. "I wish! You know what those conspiracy theorists keep saying. The U.S. Government already has a cure but-"

*-You make a profit continuing to sell medicine instead of cutting off the whole disease. I can't deny that it's a possibility. Anyway, I'm gonna let you go. To be real, I can't wait for this news.* He then hung up and I breathed. Okay, that wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Sure, he was confused but he was mainly chill. That's one thing I can usually always rely on Jonta'e for.

"Rey," Mira called which made me look to her and the concerned look on her face, "are you seriously going to do what I know you're thinking of doing?"

"You read my mind?" I asked with a straight face.

"There's obviously no need to do that. You've made it really obvious about what you want to tell these friends of yours. I thought you said that if anyone in this world learned about Pokemon, heck, the Multiverse being real- "

I cut her off. "I know what I said, okay? But telling an insignificant amount of people that I probably trust with my life is different. And these two are some of the good ones. No, some of the best ones. They'll keep this secret to their graves," I smiled to her and began to dial Mohammed's number, "and we did promise each other to tell the others if any one of us had powers or something like that. Just goes to show how much we hate being normal."

"Well I personally want to see the look on these friends of yours faces," Kai said with a smile as he hopped to the table and sat on the end, swinging his legs, "but after you tell them, what happens after that?"

Before I pressed the 'Call' button, I gave that a thought before shrugging. "No idea. I think we just…huh…" Honestly, I didn't have an idea on what to do. I mean, sure, I'd show the two of them what I can do now and the kind of company that I'm with but afterwards…what? They watch us train? Not to say they wouldn't get a kick out of it, but for one, for safety purposes, we would have to take another trip back to the Pokémon world. Something that might become a routine since training in the woods near the house is too damn risky and even a single person finding out about Mira and Kai would also have my face plastered all over T.V. and the internet, because anyone with common sense nowadays would record real Pokémon on their phone before posting it. Even if Mira wiped said person's memory, her and Kai would be exposed to this world. People would hound me and swarm my house wanting to find the real Pokémon and demand where they came from and how to get their own. And that would just be scratching the surface.

Back on the subject, the only other option would be to take the two with us to the Pokémon world. Though I don't want them to just sit around and watch us. That would be the perfect opportunity to do…something awesome! Explore, I guess but it would still be one hell of a way to spend the afternoon. Guess training would probably have to be suspended for today. Now having a plan of action, I looked back to her. "Okay, I'm going to be changing it up a little. I think that after we tell the two of 'em then we'll take them with us to the Pokémon world. But we aren't going to be able to train today."

"What? Why?" Mira asked while Kai groaned. Even without sensing his emotions, I could feel that he was disappointed at having to put off Surface Walking.

"Well, for one, you know that we can't hang around the woods because, even though it's not super warm out, people still wander in there from time to time. And a bit more once it is nice outside. And that place is the only really secluded area around here that I know about so that means something when I say it's still unsafe. So, Pokéearth is the only choice there. And then there's the issue with when we get there. We can't just train all day while they're given the opportunity to go to another universe, especially one like that. So, I think that we can just…I don't know. Hang out in that world and explore it a bit more."

Mira smiled at me. "I like how you're taking your friends feelings over your wants. I could tell that you were eager to get back to training."

Kai huffed and looked away. "I'm the one who's eager to train. I want to learn the Surface Walking exercise."

Mira huffed a bit too but kept smiling. "Honestly, I do too. I mean that is such a cool trick! I know I want to learn it."

I laughed a little and scratched at the 'hair' on Kai's head. "Sorry about that, you two. Next time we'll train, I promise. But this is something that I want to at least clear up with people I can trust completely. If I don't and they find out on their own then they'll get massively pissed at me. I know that I would if either of them were in my position." I went back to my phone while Kai groaned again and laid on his back.

After pressing the 'Call' button the phone rigged for a bit before I was greeted with a drawled-out slur.

*Broooooo. *

"…Mo-ham," was my response to that. He clicked his tongue at the nickname basically meaning 'more ham', which he doesn't find amusing but knows he can't stop me from saying it.

*Fuck you,* He didn't mean that, *but I wanted to talk to you about-*

"Wednesday," I said cutting him off."

*-Yeah. How'd you know?*

"Already got that talk from Jonta'e, like, a minute ago. I also told him, like I'm about to tell you, that I'm going to pick the two of you up and head on to the forest so we can talk."

*Whyyyy? What's wrong with your house?*

"Just…look, just trust me. You want to me to tell you about me punching a bitch through a glass-pane wall and I want us to be as alone as possible when I explain."

*…. did you get some superpowers?*

Kai and Mira's eyes widened at the question while I caught myself from audibly scoffing. I also made sure I didn't pause for too long, otherwise he'd catch on to the fact that he was right. Sure, it's redundant to worry about something like that because I'm going to tell them both anyway, however it'll just be more satisfying to both tell them and demonstrate and get both reactions at the same time.

"If I had powers, I'd tell you about it. You know that. Just get ready. I gotta get ready myself and come to get you first. At least that way, once I get Jonta'e, we'd already be near the woods."

*K.K. Just honk the horn when you get here. And you had better tell me something cool too since you're going through all this trouble.*

"Come on…trust your 'big bro' more than that. I wouldn't do this if I didn't think it wasn't worth your time. This is government-level shit." I feel like I'm talking to Jonta'e again.

*Nigga, did you get powers!? Answer the question!*

Never mind. "Okay, bye Mohammed." I deadpanned before I hung up on him. I stood up and immediately grabbed my new signature uniform and began getting dressed.

"Those friends of yours…they sound crazy." Kai deadpanned to me.

"Yeah, they're weird. Nothing I can do about that. But I mean it when I say that I can trust these guys. And you'll be able to trust them too. They make weird good first impressions, especially if you can open up with something that interests them."

Kai sat up and rose an eyebrow while I put on my shoes. "Like what?"

"Well…I can't really say much for Jonta'e. But if I know him, and I'm sure that I do, once he gets a look at the two of you, he'll become pretty interested in Pokémon even if he's not much of a fan. As for Mohammed, he loves anime so just talk about Naruto and that ball's gonna roll." I made sure to grab my iPod and phone but not my earphones since I was very sure that I wouldn't need them. I grabbed Kai's Premier Ball from my jacket and enlarged it in my hand, which caught my partner's attention.

"Does Jonta'e not like Pokémon?" Mira asked.

I stopped to consider my answer for a bit. "No, he's…what am I trying to say here? Okay, he likes the concept of you all, I know that for sure. Being able to command powerful creatures is what gets his fancy. But he doesn't care much for Ash's adventures or how Pokémon is usually portrayed. He told me he would play the games but he doesn't have a 3DS like me," I picked up the console that was on my desk before placing it down, "and I don't believe Jonta'e understands just how powerful and dangerous you-I mean, we can be. You both have seen what we're capable of with a bit of ingenuity so imagine using that same imagination on stronger moves or traits."

Mira and Kai both gave big smiles. "When you say it like that, there shouldn't be anyone who won't be able to love Pokémon. This world and most definitely not our own," Mira said.

I nodded to her. "Right? Anyway, Kai, Mira, I seriously want to surprise the two of them before they see the two of you," I looked to Kai, "so I'll just return you for a little bit and Mira, I think you should just go invisible. You can either follow the car or wait in the woods."

Mira giggled with her paws over her mouth. That usually meant something either good or bad. Hard to tell with this girl. "I'll do you one even better." She flew to my chest and turned so her back was touching my front. She used 'Psychic' to hook and lift the zipper on my jacket until it reached just below her chest, with her head and little paws poking out from over the top. Me and Kai were looking at her with dumbstruck expressions as to what-in-the-world this was supposed to be.

"…What the fuck are you doing?" Kai asked, running a paw through his hair.

"Well I don't want to wait in the woods but I also don't want to follow the car until we get there. So, I'll just be invisible while staying in here!"

I ran my own hand through my hair. "You could've just turned invisible while being in the car. There wouldn't be a difference."

Mira settled more into her position, and I felt her tail wrap around my waist. At least that way, I wouldn't accidentally kick it. "But it's soooo cozy here~."

…. Ugh. My eldest sister everybody. GAH! WHY does she have to be my sister!? My naughty thoughts were coming back full force but I did my absolute best to suppress them. I looked to Kai for any sort of assistance he could aid me but he just grinned and glance away. "Not my sister. Not my problem. Sorry, dude."

I narrowed my eyes at him. "Shut up. No, you're fuckin' not," I mumbled. I then saw Kai with a bit of an uncomfortable look on his face and shifting to his side a little.

"Uh…you okay?"

He nodded, his expression easing up. "Yeah, man, sure. Nothin' to worry about." I looked at him for a few seconds before returning him to his ball. I shrunk it and placed it in my pocket, making sure that I had all the things that I needed. A second check never hurts.

"Well I better camouflage myself since we're about to head out. Can't believe you're not going to brush your teeth though. Proper hygiene baby brother." Mira giggled to me as she turned invisible which had me stop in place just to think a couple of rude things.

"Jesus, Mira. Are you serious?"

"Yup! Go on, now. Tidy up."

After spending about 5 minutes in the bathroom to conduct proper hygiene, I gave the members of my family, or at least the ones that were still downstairs, a momentary good-bye as I strolled out of the door and headed to my car, a black 2015 Kia Soul. This was honestly the car that I wanted to spend my entire life with if I could. It was an early gift from my grandfather after completing my previous year of high school. Of course, I started with an old, burgundy colored vehicle just like most kids who get their first car. You know? That car that isn't special in any way and is only good for driving you around? Honestly, a car is better than no car. But a new car is better than an old one.

So, I got in, struggled with my seatbelt because I had to remember to not try and choke Mira to death since she was in my jacket, and started it up. The Bluetooth feature connected to both my phone and my iPod which gave me the option to play music from one or the other. So, I chose my iPod and picked something that I think Mira would enjoy. Hopefully Kai, too, since Pokémon can still hear from inside of their Pokéballs. So, I chose NateWantsToBattle's cover of '2b a Master (feat. Markiplier & Yungtown)' because any song that Nathan covers is usually much better than the original. I would've chosen the 'Pokémon Theme' Nate covered but that was too common for my tastes, even if he did put a cool rock spin on it just like in XY.

I began to back out of the drive once the music began to play, and I couldn't help but want to sing along to it. I could tell that Mira was surprised.

Lead: Go! Go! Wooo!

I bobbed my head to the left and right in time with the music and the beat continued before the 'speaker' came in. I backed out of the drive and started heading to Mohammed's house.

Narrator: So, you want to be a Pokémon Master? Mhmhahaha!

Verse 1: We got to be the one, the only one who can…withstand the test to be the best.

I…got to strive, keep up the drive. Be a master. (Whoa-oh-oh!) It takes a certain kind of skill.

And I won't stop until…150 Pokémon are mine. I must define the art…of capture. (Of my Pokémon!)

Hook: 2 B a master! Pokémon Master! I will be writing…a brand-new chapter! (Pokémon, Go! Go!)

(Everybody sing!) Na-na-na-na, Na-na-na-na! Na-na-na-na, Na-na-na-na!

Go. Yeah. It's all about the Evolution of the Pokémon! Na-na-na-na, Na-na-na-na!

Na-na-na-na, Na-na-na-na! (Lead: Pokémon, Go! Go!)

Verse 2: Got my badges and my Pokéball. Ha, got my buddy, Pikachu, to help me try to catch 'em all. (Gotta catch 'em all!) Yo! It's all about the Evolution of the Pokémon! The training, the taming, the being part of the phenomenon! Be a Poké Master icon! Ha, Team Rocket will be long-gone! Of course, you gotta know about the different types: Grass, Fire, Ground, Steel, Electric, Water, Rock, Flying, Ice, Normal, Bug, Ghost, Fighting, Dragon, Dark, and Fairy! But don't forget about Psychic!

"I LOVE THIS SONG! THAT LAST PART WAS AMAZING!" Mira yelled very loudly as I stopped at a stoplight, her having her arms raised and waving them around. I could tell because she kinda hit me in the chin while she sang along to the music with me. I smiled, happy that she was getting another taste just of how this world handled our knowledge of Pokémon. Not just games, or merchandise, but awesome songs too. I was just thankful there happened to be no cars around me.

Hook: 2 B a master! Pokémon Master! I will be writing… (I will be writing!) a brand-new chapter! (A brand-new chapter!)

Greatest Master of Pokémon!

The music momentarily stopped and a continuous rift of the guitar played.

Narrator: Hmm, someone impressive. Now you've reached the Plateau but not yet a hero. Are you ready to meet and defeat the Elite? Can I expect survival against your rival? Muhahahaha. And remember…gotta catch 'em all. Show me what you've got, Huhahahaha!

Mira laughed as I perfectly imitated that little tidbit, saying something about me probably making it as an awesome bad-guy if I wanted. I just scoffed and continued singing along.

Lead: Pokémon, Go! Go! (Pokémon, Go!)

Hook: 2 B a master! Pokémon Master! I will be writing… (I will be writing!) a brand-new chapter! (Woo!)

2 B a master! Pokémon Master! I will be striving to be the greatest master! (2 B the great master! Ha, sing it!)

Greatest Master of Pokémon!

The song faded out as Mira threw up her paws in a cheer, once again, hitting me in the chin. Don't ever make fun of a Mew's short-ass arms because her's were strong! I lightly groaned and rubbed my chin after pausing my music since I was coming up to Mohammed's house and he liked it when I played the Pokémon songs. His favorite being the opening from Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimensions. "Why didn't you tell me that there is amazing music about us, too!?" Mira exclaimed.

I shrugged at her question. "Well, in a way, you should've figured. I mean, Pokémon are hot in this world. I can't even guess the amount of songs that have been created for 'em. A lot are good, a lot are decent, and some are bad. Anyway, I'm going to need you to stay quiet at this point on, okay?"

Mira nodded, which I felt on my chest, "Okay."

"And stop hitting my fucking chin, my god." I whined at her which only had her laugh.

"Haha, okay! Sorry about that. But the music!"

"You're lucky I'm willing to accept that as a reason."

I honked the horn of my car and waited for a little bit. Luckily, I didn't have to wait all that long as Mohammed came out the house a few seconds after. He was wearing a yellow shirt with a light red jacket over it. Blue jeans and shoes that were a mic of dark green and blue. Must have made them himself since he was into this shoemaking phase at the moment. Neither of us are sure if he is going to keep it up forever but it's something he's into right now and I have to admit, he does make some pretty interesting shoes. He opened the passenger side of the car and got in before closing it. He then turned to look at me while I looked at him.

And after 10 seconds we went in for a man-hug. Though I had to adjust my body to the side a bit and only hug him with my right arm so that he wouldn't squish an invisible Mira. We then backed up while he smirked and put on his seatbelt. Number 1 rule when driving my car that I had to condition the two of them to do. Mohammed doesn't mind but I think that it kinda gets to Jonta'e sometimes. It's funny to see though. "Hey, bro," he greeted me, "so what's the deal? I need to know."

"Nigga, didn't I say that we had to wait? And this isn't something I'm going to explain twice, not when I could just get both you and Jonta'e at the same time."

He rolled his eyes and laid back into the seat. "Fine, be like that," he pouted. I knew that he was just joking with me. Mohammed was actually a pretty patient guy except when he really wanted something bad. This news…yeah, he's wondering what it's about since I hyped it up so much but I know he can wait for a bit longer. I picked up my iPod and chose the music to cheer him up, being his favorite Pokémon song, before I shifted the gear into 'Drive'. Mohammed's mood changed near instantly. I could tell because he was singing along with me as I drove to Jonta'e's. Thanks to my sensitive hearing, I could hear that Mira was humming as quietly to herself as the music played. Geez, this music really does get to her, huh? I wonder what Kai's reaction to it is going to be. The song lasted just long enough for me to drive to Jonta'e apartment up the hill from my house, which was also the closest to the woods we were heading too. I used my phone to send him a text message that we were waiting for him.

After getting a reply that he was on his way I changed up the music to some 'Linkin Park', not caring which song came on. Said song being 'Figure.09' one of my favorites. Oh, good lord, Mira was bumping to even this!? GAH! She hit me again in the motherfuckin'- you know what? No. I had to discreetly flick her lightly in the head to get her to not move around so much. This time, it took around a minute for my second friend to come down, and he was dressed in a black shirt with an impressive looking skull on it, jeans with a chain hanging from his belt to his pocket. Definitely his wallet which I always thought was a cool accessory he had. A black unzipped hoodie with black and red. He opened up the rear right car door and got inside, before closing it.

"Gentlemen," he said before putting his seatbelt on, "I have arrived."

"We see that," Mohammed said, turning around to look at him. I for one, shifted the gear and got back to driving. I was already expecting questions from Jonta'e and I wasn't disappointed.

"So, I have to ask, what makes this 'news' so important? You said it was world changing… I want to be inclined to believe that."

I scoffed at him as I made the turn, practically already there. Fun fact, none of us ever drive to this place. There's no need since we're in walking distance from the area. But with driving, there's no need to wait as long, not to mention Mira won't get too bored with us speeding along. I mean, I could've asked for her to disguise herself in her human body but then there would be questions about that and… I just don't want to have to fucking keep answering too questions! "Oh, you'll believe it when you see it."

Mohammed lazily turned his head to me just as I was pulling into the parking area. "Dude, just tell us. Do you have powers?"

"Nigga! I…look, having powers isn't 'world changing' or whatever, all right!? I mean, having powers would be cool but 'world changing' is something that's exactly what I said. If people knew about it then it could make everyone crazier than they already are…and maybe a lot of others would be elated. Just trust me, okay?" I practically pleaded with them as I pulled up into the parking lot, parked the car and turned off the ignition. Taking the keys out of the ignition, along with my two mobile devices. We all got out of the car which I locked. Mira made sure that she was secured in her position.

The area we were in now wasn't much to look at. Besides this make-shift parking lot, there was a mass of space further out. A small park, with a pavilion standing over some run down wooden tables. There was a concrete path that led further out into the woods and a massive amount of grass passed the park. Down the path was a run-down public restroom which I have NEVER gone in and will never go in. I felt Kai's Premier Ball rumble a bit in my pocket which slightly made me jerk but my two friends didn't notice it, though they were still giving me a few side-ways glances here and there. Anyway, I had no idea what that rumbling was about but if I had to guess, I would say Kai is probably feeling anxious. He probably wants to come outside but he knows he can't yet. He'll just have to bear it for a while longer.

We walked to the path, which had some chalk drawings sketched into some of it, mainly by kids. I say kids because I couldn't figure out what some of these pictures were and there was a poorly drawn hop-scotch game we passed, too. Fun fact, I found a BB SMG down here and keep it in a drawer at home. I'd rather have a pistol one though, since I'm more comfortable with hand-cannons. Not that I ever held one but I definitely want to own two of them some day. Why two? Because you need to pair off the first one.

"So, you're really not going to say anything about this world affecting news?" Jonta'e opened up first.

I shrugged simply. "Not yet. Only when I feel sure that no one will hear or see anything."

"See anything? See what?" He asked once again but I shook my head.

"That would be telling too. Just be patient for however long it gets us to where the water usually is. Like…maybe 10 minutes or less."

Mohammed groaned and tilted his head back. "I hate waiting, bro. I want to know what it is!" He complained slightly raising his voice like a little kid. Something that he does out of fun but that didn't make it less annoying.

I held out a hand to him before putting it down. "Well, too bad. You had to wait for Naruto's manga to end, I'm sure you can wait for a few minutes."

"But it's about you having powers!"

"Oh, my-shut UP with the powers! My god!"

"Mohammed, chill a little," Jonta'e told him which surprised me a bit, "he said he'll tell us when he'll tell us. You already know that I'm eager to hear too but pestering him isn't going to make the news come faster." He sounded as excited as he didn't look. But I have deep conversations with these guys about…practically everything. World altering phenomenon, the super natural, humanity, and yes, even special abilities, so I knew that he was excited on the inside. Now how they react once they see what I'm about to bring to the table is a different story but I really can't wait to see. My heart was beating fast once again in anticipation at telling them.

As we walked, we passed the time with meaningless conversation. Nothing too important or specific, just idle chatter that Mira commented on being weird, via talking directly into my head. Mohammed was the one who noticed that my wardrobe was a bit different, main with the Pokéball designs on my gloves and jacket. I told him that I had ordered them online and that they were conveniently damn-near identical to my original outfit. Knowing that they both would've done the same thing for clothes they couldn't get in normal stores, they accepted this as an answer. Besides, franchises do that kind of thing all the time when it comes to merchandise. Make figured, dolls, gadgets or clothes out of it. We reached the area where there were a bunch of rock paths and the water coming from upstream headed to the sewer, while a second stream branched to the left. I crossed the small path of stones to the other side first, Jonta'e then Mohammed following afterwards. A few more feet and we were in the area where I practiced my tree climbing. I stopped to gaze at it for a few seconds looking at the marks that I left or the small craters from my foot. I felt Mira unwrap her tail from my waist. I lightly zipped down my jacket for a bit to allow her invisible form to slip out and float around me. I could tell because she wasn't invisible to my 'Aura Perception'.

"Well, we're here. So…what's this damn secret!?" Mohammed pleaded to me, him and Jonta'e standing side-by-side. I saw Jonta'e eyes glance to the tree a few times, seeing the damage done to it.

"The hell happened there?" He asked as he rose an eyebrow to me. "You do all that?"

I only shook my head. "You're on the powers thing, too?"

"Why not? That seems like it could be a possibility."

I just nodded, taking a deep breath. This was it. The moment of truth.

"Guys…the Multiverse is real."

"…"

"…"

Jonta'e rose an eyebrow but I could see a glint of interest in his eyes…or was that his glasses? Eh, probably both.

"And what makes you say that? Can you show us?"

I just nodded and glanced to the area above their heads which was where I sensed Mira was at the moment, still invisible. "Mira, show yourself to 'em." She giggled a bit which had the two jump at the sound before she revealed herself in their faces, with a broad smile adorning her features.

"HI! My name is Mira!"

"HOLY FUCKING SHIT!" Mohammed screamed as he back paddled one-too-many steps and fell on his ass though he did scoot a few feet away, his eyes wide and a palm over his heart. Jonta'e was a bit more composed than that though he did scream 'SHIT!' and actually managed to stay on his feet as he jerked back a tad. Both sets of eyes were taking in Mira as she just leaned back in the air and laughed like crazy, using a paw to wipe a tear from her eye. I couldn't help but smile a bit myself and let out a few chuckles at her antics. What a childish woman but I guess that was part of her charm, huh?

"Hahahaha! Haha-o-o-oh, wow! THAT…that was great! I didn't think I was THAT scary! Not little-old me~! Hahahaha!" She laughed out, which was when I realized that she was using Telepathy to speak. Oh, yeah. While I could understand Pokémon, Jonta'e and Mohammed aren't able to, so if she was using her natural PokeSpeech then only I could follow what she was saying. As to her being a living Mew, well, Mohammed most definitely knew what she was and where she's from. Jonta'e… I'm not entirely sure. He was never much of a Pokémon fan and he doesn't really know much of anything about Pokémon as a species and even less on the anime. He finds the games interesting though but he told me he wouldn't go out of his way to buy a 3DS to play them. Can't blame him as that is a pricy investment. Well, since we're on a role here…I grabbed my miniaturized Premier Ball from my pocket.

"Guys," they looked to me. "I'm still not done yet." I enlarged Kai's ball-

Mohammed gave a massive gasp and scrambled to his feet. "NO FUCKING WAY, DUDE! A POKEBALL!?"

Ignoring, Mo-ham, I pressed the button and released Kai in a burst of white and blue energy before placing it away. Now the two were both rendered speechless, though I know for a fact that Jonta'e didn't know about Kai's species. At least…he didn't until now. I gesture a hand to him though he seemed to be squirming for some reason. Must be because he's in the presence of other humans. "Okay, you two…first off, that right there is Mira. And yes, a real Mew from the Pokémon universe."

"Hi, again! Rey's told me a lot about the both of you!" She exclaimed with a wave of her paw. Mohammed just leaned in closer, his eyes threatening to pop out of his head. Jonta'e himself removed his glasses and wiped them down before placing them back on his face, in more disbelief then ever as his meager attempt to prove his eyes wrong didn't work. I heard the crunching of dead leaves beside me. I looked to see Kai was shifting from hind-paw to hind-paw, biting his bottom lip. Okay, now I was just curious about that. I blink one and wait a moment before asking.

"Dude, what are you-"

("Gah! I can't take it anymore!")

The outburst made me jump a little. Kai then bolted away until he was a significant distance from us, which had us turning to him. He then ran behind a large tree which hid him from view entirely. Mira tilted her head curiously. "What was THAT about?"

"You're asking me? I'm just as lost."

A literal second after the four of us heard what sounded like running liquid splashing and Kai letting out a riveting groan of relief. Wait a…was he…!?

("Ahhhhh~. Fucking…ARCEUS! Muuuuch better~.)

"It's…is it," Jonta'e started before he placed a hand to his forehead and shook it in disbelief, "wow. Okay."

"It's taking a piss." Mohammed said, as if we had no idea that's what was happening.

"Thank you, Mohammed. We had no idea that a goddamn Pokémon had the urge to urinate. It's obviously not doing it." Jonta'e replied in his usual way making Mohammed pout a bit at him but decided to not answer. Holy shit….was that what that shuffling and grunting was earlier!? He had to take a piss!? Soon the sound stopped and Kai gave another audible huff of relief before he stepped out from behind the tree about 10 seconds after he was done. He had a large smile on his face as he casually strutted over as if we didn't hear what we just heard.

"Haha! Man, that's a lot better! Sorry, but I've been holding it ever since you picked up your first friend. Just know that if I had to go really bad, I don't care what you would've said Rey, I would've broke out the ball and took care of business."

…Let it be known now people that, yes, Pokémon do relieve themselves, too. Most of them anyway. But I also realized that he was speaking in my head, too. Kai, doesn't know how to use Telepathy so how…

" I did it," Mira said, catching our attention. She must've read my surface thoughts. "This way, your friends can understand Kai, too. I told Kai that I would do this when he was still in the Premier Ball but the earlier outburst…kinda threw me off."

"Understandable," I said before looking to my Riolu, "and why didn't you go before we left the house? I mean…not saying you had to use the toilet since it's a bit too big for a Riolu but…"

"I thought I could hold it in at the time." Kai said with a shrug of his shoulders. I rolled my eyes at that old response. That always seems to be the reason for a lot of people. That them saying that they didn't have to go. What a load of crap…and thank almighty God and my dad he didn't have to do THAT.

"HELLO!? WE'RE HERE TOO, DAMMIT!" Mohammed yelled which had me turn to them, who, along with Jonta'e walked a little bit closer eyeing the three of us with critical gazes. Disbelief evident in their eyes but I could tell they knew what they were looking at. Real-life Pokémon standing before them. Well…Kai was standing at least. "HOW!? WHERE!? WHEN!? WHAT!?"

I blinked and slightly tiled my head to the larger guy. "Dude, make sentences at least. And it'll take a while to explain all of that in one setting. Oh, and one more thing…" I held out my hands to them and with a lot more ease then when I first tried it, had Aura swirl and grow between them before I had an 'Aura Sphere' hovering over my palms. Now if the two of them were shocked just a few minutes ago then they were damn near gonna faint after this. Though Jonta'e was the one who recovered first and reacted first.

"Holy shit! You do have powers! I knew it! I MOTHER FUCKING KNEW IT!" He leaned in a bit closer to the sphere getting a better look at it. Mohammed was practically in tears at having impossible dreams being shown to him. No…wait, he was crying! Happy tears, of course and he wasn't sobbing or anything but he was definitely letting his eyes leak something fierce. He sniffed and wiped them. Mira floated over and placed a paw on his face, which had him jump a bit and look at her.

"Hey, are you alright? Why are you crying?" She asked in a tender fashion. Mohammed shook his head and slowly raised a hand before touching her gently.

"Just…I can't believe that this is actually real! I've always hoped…always dreamed that the Multiverse was real. I always hoped that powers were, too. And now…it's all just happening all at once."

"Well, you're definitely handling this a lot better than Rey is." She said with a bit of a laugh. I pouted a little and absorbed my 'Aura Sphere'. I stared at Jonta'e who looked up to me with intense interest.

"Alright, you know I have questions and I want complete answers. Matter of fact, start at the beginning and then work up what happened up to now. Also, these two keep calling you 'Rey'. Why is that? I mean…is it like your PSN account or what?"

I shrugged. "Um… it's definitely a long story and you're both going to have questions the more I explain. So…Mira, can you help fill in some things with me?"

"Sure. I was going to do so, even if you hadn't asked me." She floated over and sat on my head (I began realize that she likes to do things like this a lot) while I sat down on the ground. The other two followed my lead and did the same. Mohammed had his legs crossed while Jonta'e had slung his right arm over his right leg, which was bent upwards and the left one being bent across the ground. Kai, not knowing what else to do, just hopped into my lap and decided to listen as well. Seeing as the two of them were eagerly waiting for their much needed explanation I began to speak. I told them everything, or at least all of the main things, that happened to me just some days ago. How it stared the same day Jonta'e couldn't go with me to Tower City and that's where I encountered Mira in her human disguise. How we spent the day together where she gave the gem necklace dad made for me, which I made sure to pull out of my shirt and show them. Afterwards my spirit was pulled from my body after I decided to take a nap from putting my life in danger twice and I was sent to the Hall of Origin in the Pokémon world, thanks to my necklace, where all the first ever created, Legendaries go a lot of the time.

I met them, fan-boyed my heart out, fainted, and woke up after only to fan-boy in more 'controlled' way. I asked my own questions regarding the Multiverse to Arceus who confirmed it was real and as infinite as we claim it to be. I then began to learn personal things, like how I wasn't in my body but was in the body of Hilbert/Black, who was the male protagonist in the Black and White Pokémon games/manga. I had to go on my phone and show them a picture of Hilbert for them to get the idea. They looked at me and then back to the picture, commenting on now seeing on that could be me. I grumbled and continued, explaining how Arceus told me of my original parentage. Him being my dad and Ash's Ketchum's mother, Delia Ketchum, also being my mother. That in turn made me both the first and only Pokémon demigod and Ash Ketchum's brother. Or at least my world's version of him and my real name is Rey Takashi. Something they both took notice too since, like I said before, that is my PSN username and it baffled the three of us that I subconsciously picked that name specifically.

This is where things began to get even more complicated, and even Kai needed a few explanations on how it all worked. I'm talking about the way dad 'converted' my mind, body, and sprit into pure energy and placed it inside of this body when it's previous occupant's soul had passed on after passing during his toddler years. You know, the original Stephan thing? Yeah, and I can't lie and say that still doesn't make me feel some sort of strange way. Definitely takes walking a mile in someone else's shoes to the next level. Mira saved me and was able to explain to them how energy transferring in a method like this worked. That one can infuse a 'shell' with their or someone else's power and the two can become 'attached' in a way. Sort of like glue. Yet the rules are slightly different with a fresh organic shell that can actually house life. The new energy apparently transfers into the body and becomes connected to it through every fundamental level. Nerves, cells, memories, even the soul is completely linked. It's just that my case was a bit special since the brain of this body wasn't dead in anyway and my own memories, my own original 3 years, and powers were locked away so that my memories would not conflict with this body's memories. Basically, I was reborn as someone else compared to how I might've been growing up. That was very nice to hear actually. So the way I am technically IS because I lived life the way I personally did and not because of some form of leftover residue bleeding into me. I thanked Mira for that while Kai, Jonta'e and Mohammed were more hooked into this story than ever. Finally, the reason why this all happened was because the evil half of Giratina, who is just named Shadow Giratina, was released from his prison and he previously had decided to come after me when I was young because of how I apparently hold some sort of crazy hidden powers he wanted to abuse.

After talks, I was sent back to my body and began to train my Aura powers whenever I could. Mediating in my room, training in these woods, hell, I even told them that Aura has the potential to emulate Chakra and Ki. I pointed to the tree with the marks that I made and explained that it was the Tree Climbing Exercise, at which Mohammed nearly almost fainted at again. I couldn't help but think that he felt jealous at that since he's such a die-hard Naruto fan like me. To be honest, I would've been jealous too. Kai got excited and exclaimed that I was going to teach him and Mira how to do the same thing later. Mira then brought herself into the picture when she began to visit me to both watch over and help me train. Yesterday was when I took my first trip back to the Pokémon since my 'Rey Takashi' toddler days and trained with Mira a decent deal. I learned the three moves, 'Mach Punch', 'Mega Kick', and 'Quick Attack'. Afterwards I picked up on Kai's Aura and found him about to get attacked by a Machoke which me and him then tag-teamed on. After a long and hard fought fight between the two of us against him, we won with the 'Lion's Barrage' (Mo-ham gave a small squeal of excitement at that), got healed and came back here. Then we just spent the rest of the day watching Naruto up to the prelims of the Chunin Exams.

Mira and myself sighed from the long-ass explanation and answering all of the questioned Jonta'e, Mohammed, and occasionally Kai, had.

"So…that sums up everything that's happened to me up to now. Also, as we already established…crazy as shit."

Jonta'e took a deep breath and was quiet for a few moments. Probably because he needed to let it sink in before he spoke once more. "Alright, let me see if I got this," he points to me," you're a demigod. A Pokémon demigod, your real name is honest-to-God Rey, you're Ash Ketchum's brother, you're basically a Pokémon Trainer, and now you have an evil version of another Legendary out there hunting you so you're training to better defend yourself."

"I…yeah," I said with a single nod, "that perfectly sums all of that up. Plus, since I have Kai as my Pokémon, he's going to be training with me along with Mira if she wants."

"Do you train here most of the time?" Mohammed eagerly asked but I shook my head.

"Mira and I decided to change that once my training began to properly pick up. When it was just myself, yeah. I mean, all I was doing was climbing trees, walking on water, and getting a better hang of my 'Aura Sphere'. I can't do any heavy things like move training or having Mira and Kai roaming around freely. It's getting warmer here so people will take walks through the woods. Not only that, but when you think about it, this area isn't too big. We're still right in the middle of civilization. That's the main reason we went to the Pokémon world yesterday and I think it's going to be the go-to thing from now on."

Mohammed's eyes went wide as he stepped closer to me. "So does that mean you're going there today?"

"Yup. Though… Rey wishes for you two to come along with us, too."

Their eyes widened noticeably while Mohamed yelled in elation again. Kai sighed and placed his paws behind his head, glancing off to the side.

"And because of that, we aren't going to get any kind of training done. Man, I really want to walk on walls and water. Why can't we train and have them just watch?"

I gave him a deadpan look but before I could respond to him, Jonta'e spoke up first.

"You're kidding. Look, I'm sure that whatever you do for training is impressive but this is the chance to go to a completely different world. Instead of looking at the three of you the whole time, I'm going to want to explore the area."

"I second that!" Mohammed agreed with a raised hand. Kai audibly groaned and looked to me but I just nodded to him, telling him that plan didn't change.

"Fine…fine. Okay. But next time, we're doing some training, no matter what. We need to keep getting stronger and stronger; for a good reason now, too. Legendary or not, no one's getting to Rey with ME around."

"I feel like that should be my line, Kai." Mira said, as she floated a few feet away from us.

"Aww," I cooed as I scooped up the Riolu, making him yelp, and nuzzled him, "listen to you, trying to act all tough! But you're so small and cuddly!"

"H-hey! Cut that out! Put me down!" His arms flailed about for a bit before he tried to push me away. "Come on! This isn't cool, dude! And what's wrong with being small, huh!? Little things, big packages, you know!?" I just chuckled and nonchalantly dropped him, which had him fall on his ass. He yelped again before he stood up and rubbed the dirt off of his backside. "Douche."

I nodded to him. "Damn right, I am."

Mira gave me a look. "You're seriously acknowledging that?"

"That's just the way he is," Jonta'e said, "so when the hell are we going to go already!? I can't lie and say I'm not eager to see what the Pokémon World looks like. Hey, are we going to meet Ash Ketchum, too?"

"No!" I exclaimed sharply but mainly to him. Kai and Mira were obviously shocked by my outburst.

Jonta'e rose his eyebrow once more. "You really don't want me to meet him, do you?"

"You don't even like Ash in the first place and I'm not going to risk you saying some stupid shit to his face. Hell, I'm not even ready to meet him and the kid is my own damn brother. We're leaving him to his journey while we have fun somewhere else. Like…maybe…" I looked to Mira. "Hey, we went to Sinnoh yesterday. Can we go to Unova today? Somewhere where we won't be around any humans but a lot of Pokémon?"

"That sounds so awesome." Mohammed said with a tired excitement in his voice. Understandable since being excited for an extended period of time is too damn tiring.

Mira turned and gave me and smirk that I didn't feel all that comfortable with. "Sure~ But since we're going to be doing nothing but playing over work, then it's best you lot 'look the part', riiiiight?"

Kai rose a paw to signify he wanted to speak. "I don't at ALL like the way that sounded."

Mira lightly waved one of her own paws at him. "Oh, calm down, Kai. I'm not going to do anything to you… specifically."

"The fuck are you gonna do!?" Mohammed blurted out in his usual fashion. Jonta'e just seemed highly curious while I had to be a mix of both of their emotions. Mira just smiled and swung her arm in front of her. The 'Spatial Rend' opened up the portal to our indigenous Pokémon World in its usual swirling magenta glow. My two friends gave the usual surprised gasp and immediate interest as they got closer but not close enough to fall through. I looked to them and walked over myself, Kai by my side.

"Okay, guys. Ready to do what no one else in this universe is going to ever do?"

"Is that a trick question?" Jonta'e replied as he stared deep into the portal, the glow of it reflecting from his glasses.

"If you're getting second thoughts then I can give you a little 'push'." Mira said as she pushed all of us through with 'Psychic' before she flew in herself; the portal closed behind her.

We were flying through the transitional tunnel through space while neither Jonta'e or Mohammed could properly explain what they were experiencing. Just a lot of cursing and yelling of elation as they looked around the mix of magenta, white, pink, and a few various other colors if you looked close enough. As usual, my form changed to my original body of Hilbert, which is much easier to say than trying to choose between that name and Black.

"Steph, what the…?" Jonta'e exclaimed behind me a little bit. "Wait a minute, this is that 'body change' thing you were telling us about, right? When you go back to this world?"

I look back to him and nod. "Yeah, the exact thing."

"No offense, dude, but I think you look cooler like this." Kai said which had me smile at him.

"I think I look cool, too."

Mira flew back to us and brought Jonta'e, Mohammed, and I a bit closer together but not close enough that we were making contact, thank God. "Uh…Mira? What the hell are you doing? When you said we had to 'look the part', what did you mean?"

"Just let me worry about that. We're almost there anyway!" She was right, when we began to flow into the white exit of the spatial tunnel. Before we exited though, the three of us were coated in a pink bubble of some kind of energy that glowed a bit too bright for my liking. I think I heard Kai calling for me before there was another bright flash. A second later, I landed belly first on the ground, disoriented and groggy as all hell. I groaned, placing a hand to my head and lightly trying to shake away the dizziness before I opened my eyes. Everything in my vision was lightly spinning as I saw splotches of yellow, black, and red in my vision.

"What, ugh, the fuck? D-dammit…Miraaa." I blinked multiple times before my vision turned clear once after a few seconds.

"HOLY FUCKING SHIT! REY!? IS…IS THAT YOU!?" Kai's outburst forced me to cover my ears as his screaming sounded akin to dozens of nails scratching a board. I rounded around to him and saw his face, jaw dropped and red eyes opened wide as if I was, once again, something he never saw before. What the hell was he so surprised at?

"The hell, man? Of course it's me," I rose a paw in a questioning manner, "why would you say…."

Is… is my hand a… paw?

I could only blink dumbly and looked to what used to be my hand! The five fingers were still there if a bit shorter with claws, along with paw-pads on my palms! My arm was covered in thick cream fur which had me look at my other arm, chest, legs, everywhere! I gasped loudly and threw my furry hands over my mouth-erm- muzzle now!

"HOLY FUCK, I'M A POKEMON! AND HOLY FUCK... I'M A TYPHLOSION!? THIS IS SO…SO….NO WORDS!" I was freaking the hell out as I once again looked over myself, while also trying to work on standing on two shorter legs. Besides the paw-pads, which is something I never saw on a Typhlosion in the anime, same for Kai, I noticed that I had black fur on my back instead of blue. The fur itself was a bit ruffled and unruly but looked pretty awesome in my personal opinion. My hind paws actually had toes claws as well. I heard groaning behind me and turned to see two more Pokémon, which made my heart skip. I knew who they were but just couldn't believe what they were!

If I had to guess, and I believe my guesses would be right, Mohammed was currently an Electivire. He was sitting on his rear and rubbing the side of his own head with a massive hand. His yellow fur was also a bit of a darker shade. A childish part of me, 75% of it, was disappointed he wasn't one of the bear Pokémon like Ursaring or Pangoro. I always joked about the bear being his spirit animal and he would make for an extra cuddly one. Then I would have all rights to glomp him to my heart's content! Him absolutely hating it would make it all the more satisfying to do! Ahem, Jonta'e, my sweet lord, was a Zoroark. Another one of the Pokémon that I promised I would one day plow but… this was Jonta'e. My mind and heart was currently telling me 'hell the fuck no, bitch! kill yourself for thinking that!' while looking at him of all people, though I think my new instincts were saying 'fuck caution and go sate your needs!'. Good thing my will was a lot stronger than my instincts. Jonta'e's red mane, markings and claws were purple, indicating he was a regular Shiny Zoroark, and he still had his glasses on his face… muzzle… look, the guy was still wearing his glasses! Don't know why, he just was.

"Shit, ugh. Is the headache normal?" Jonta'e asked me as he got to a knee and properly got his bearings.

"Is everything spinning for you, too?" Mohammed asked us, I'm guessing he was getting his mind right, too. Then when they both were in their right minds they looked between the three of us. First, there wasn't much of a reaction but then their brains caught up with them, making them jerk to their feet/hind paws with accompanying shouts.

"What the…!? What the fuck am I!?" Jonta'e yelled as he looked to his three-clawed paws, clawed feet, and grabbed at his long purple mane. Man, Zoroark's definitely have the best hair. He ran is claws through it a few times as he continued to look himself over. Mohammed ran his own hands through his yellow and black fur. He must've felt his tails wiggling around because his head jerked behind him to see had actually did have tails. He grabbed at the prehensile appendages with one in each hand, probably wondering how to stop their movement.

"THIS IS SO CRAZY! AND AWESOME! How do I get them to stop moving though!?" I knew it. Kai snorted and laughed at them. They stopped their personal bodily examinations to look at him.

"You guys look like you're going to keel over! Hahahaha! Come on, what the hell are you freaking out about!? You're freaking Pokémon now! I don't know what it's like to be human but I'd be pretty damn ecstatic to turn into something awesome!"

"Tch, easy for you to say," Jonta'e started trying and quickly getting used to standing on digitigrade legs, "you're the only one who didn't turn into another species. And I don't even know what the hell I am!" He looks to me and I just wave at him with a smile on my face like an idiot.

"Stephan?"

"Yup."

"You're eyes… they're hazel."

My eyes opened up a bit from the comment. "Wait, for real? I wanna see!"

Mira flew over to me. "How about you all get a look at yourselves." Her eyes glowed and a pink reflective thin wall of psychic power projected out of thin air. As Mira intended, it acted as a mirror and we could perfectly see ourselves. My jaw slowly dropped in shock as I got a better look at myself. Not only were my eyes actually hazel again but my back fur… it was black! Not the normal blue but black and it was messy. Hmm, no, too ugly of a word for this. It's not 'messy' but… unruly. Yeah that sounds about right. I couldn't help but gaze over my form before I grinned broadly and did a few poses. One with my right hand behind my head and my left on my hip. One where I leaned in close and slyly looked at myself. Finally, another where I turned to get a look at myself from the back (eyes totally not checking out my own furry ass) and licked my lips. Of course, Jonta'e and Mohammed were looking at me with deadpanned expressions but at the moment I didn't give a fuck.

"Holy hell, I am so damn sexy!"

Kai burst out laughing at my proclamation. Jonta'e pretended to gag while Mohammed shook his head in disbelief.

"Bruh… really? Come on."

I just ignored the new Electric-type and turned back around. I placed my paws behind my head and gave myself bedroom eyes. "Guys, I'm not gonna lie… I would so do me~"

"Rey, whoa! You… are you serious?" Mira asked with a bit of a blush on her face, but she sounded strangely curious when asking. I just assume a normal stance and look to her.

"Yeah. I mean… I'm like my parents. I'm Poképhile , Mira. Not only would it be a dream… actually, no, that's it. It'd be a dream even if it's myself."

Mira's blush grew even deeper while Kai groaned and waves his paws at me. "Duuude, stop. Too much information, man. Look, when you go to sleep you can dream about fucking yourself as much as you want, okay? But I know I don't want to hear about any of that." Now it was my turn to laugh. Kai was definitely one-of-a-kind and I loved that about him. You know what? I'm going to screw with him just to see what his responses will be. I know that I won't be disappointed by the results I get.

"Jonta'e, Mohammed, what do you guys think about yourselves? Awesome."

Jonta'e glanced to me before looking at his paws. He flexed his six claws and gave his body a bit more test stretches. "Honestly, I don't know what to think about this. I agreed to go to another world but I wasn't expecting to become a Pokémon." He looked to Mira with slightly narrowed eyes, signifying that he wasn't amused. Mira didn't seem to pick up on that before she lazily flew around Jonta'e.

"Why not? Rey didn't want you both to just watch us while we trained. Moreover, I thought that you would get the full experience out of this if you were Pokémon! That way, you can talk and play with all of the other Pokémon! Personally, this is the best experience you could have! Trust me, you'll love it!"

"What I don't get is why you guys are all Shiny. I mean, is there a reason for that, Mira?" Kai asked scratching through his hair. That made me look between the three of us again, seeing that he was right. Was it because we were human who turned into Pokémon?

Mira floated to him and tilted upside down in an attempt to entertain herself. "I honestly have no idea why. I mean, I still don't understand why Rey is, not just Shiny, but also colored black."

"Why did you single me out and what about being black?" God that should not have sounded racist.

Mohammed gasped and pointed between Mira and myself. "Racist!"

"What? What do you mean?" Mira asked while I just looked to the Electivire and shook my head at him. Good god, man, do you have no form of tact.

"Never mind him, okay? So, what exactly were you talking about, sis?"

Mira smiled at me. "Well… it was when you were reeeeally little. I was babysitting you one day and you were being extra cute! Like, you were trying to walk and toddling all over the place! So, I decided to have a bit of fun and… turn you into a baby Mew."

"YOU TURNED ME/HIM INTO A MEW!?" Kai and I yelled at the same time. Holy shit! That sounded awesome! I mean… I'm not saying that I would choose Mew over Typhlosion of anything since I am currently my fav Pokémon now… but come on! Who wouldn't want to be a Mew!?

Mira nodded. "Yeah! However, you were pink or even the Shiny version of blue. Your fur was black. It was something dad and I could never figure out. And now your friend are also Shiny Pokémon even though I didn't intend for them to be."

Jonta'e looked at one of his paws again. "Have you ever turned any other humans into Pokémon? Maybe there is something different going on there."

She responded with a negative as his answer. "Nope. You three are the only humans. Well… two humans and one half-human at least. Look, we can sit here and talk about this all day and waste our time OR we can have fun finally!"

I grinned showing off my fangs. "I like the sound of that! I wonder if I can use Fire-type attacks now that I'm a Typhlosion."

Jonta'e turned and looked to me critically. "What exactly are you supposed to be? Typhlosion? Actually, what the hell are Mohammed and I?"

Mira then chose that moment to pop in front of us in a pink teleport. "I can answer any of your questions if you want! Like you, for instance, Jonta'e. You are a Dark-type Pokémon called Zoroark. It's called the 'Illusion Fox Pokémon' and is the final form of Zorua. As the name implies they have the power to create any kind of illusion and make them sound and feel real."

I took a few steps closer to him, able to get my footing properly stable myself with surprising ease. "You know, I always pegged you for a Zoroark. I never really told you that before since I felt there was no need too but I just knew it was for you. And this just proves it… though I don't understand how you still have your glasses."

"They fell off before I landed, so I put them on." He said with a shrug.

"Speaking of which," Mohammed asked, "where did our clothes go? And… what am I supposed to be?"

Mira gave a 'hmm' and just shrugged at us. "Beats me. Some kind of pocket dimension or something? This isn't something that happens a whole lot. And Mohammed, you are an Electivire, the 'Thunderbolt Pokémon'. Its previous form is Electabuzz and its first form is Elekid."

"I'm an Electric-type?!" He yelps in shock before he throws his fists into the air and starts cheering as if he won the lottery. It got weird when he started to hug and caress himself as he kept giggling. You know, I would expect something this weird from Mo-ham but… to watch an Electivire of all things do this… it was a little…

"That is so freaky." Kai deadpanned.

I nodded in agreement. Yeah… that's what I would go for. A Pokémon like that shouldn't be acting like this. He then gasped and gripped his left wrist with his right hand, hooking his fingers.

"If, if I'm an Electric Pokémon now… then I can do 'Chidori'!" He then made a noise that I seriously had no way to describe. Like he was audibly gulping water or something.

I only blinked in disbelief at him. "Dude, are you serious!? You come to a whole other freaking universe, get turned into a creature that can make even Zeus himself jealous… and that's all you care about!?"

Kai walked over and tapped my leg. "What's a 'Chidori'?"

"Well, you remember Kakashi's 'Lightning Blade'? What he did against Zabuza but killed Haku with?"

Kai nodded but Mira is the one who answers. "How can we forget that!? It was unlike any form of 'Thunder Punch' I've ever seen!"

"It's actually many times stronger," I said but shook my head a bit, "but basically, it's that. The original name is 'Chidori: One Thousand Birds' because the move sounds exactly like a thousand birds chirping at once. Kakashi only calls it the 'Lightning Blade' because he once managed to cut lightning in half with it before it hit the ground."

Mira had a look of amazement in her eyes at the claim while Kai seemed star-struck. He then balled up his paws to fists and gave a big smile. "That's so awesome! He cut real lightning!? I want to learn it!"

I smirked. "Actually, I have something else in mind for you. An awesome technique, also from Naruto, that I believe we're fully capable of doing with our Aura. But we should get in practice with our moves and fine-tune our Aura Control in other ways before attempting it, okay? Because it's a very highly skilled energy attack."

Kai kept his smile up but nodded rapidly, eager to learn a technique from what was probably his favorite universe, I guessed. Seriously, I need to get him into more anime. My highly sensitive ears twitched making me turn my head to see Jonta'e walking towards me. I turned and gave him my full attention before he stopped in front of me, placing a claw under his muzzle and giving me a look-over with his new cyan eyes. He walked around me, poking and prodding which had me slapping away his paw periodically. He was back in my face when he was done with his little inspection. "So… what exactly are you now?"

I grin and make a fist. "My absolute favorite Pokémon. Typhlosion. A Fire-type and called the 'Volcano Pokémon'. The evolved form of Quilava and the final evolved form of Cyndaquil, the Fire Starter for the Johto Region." Okay, I couldn't lie and say that I didn't feel proud at declaring that… mainly to myself.

"Your favorite, huh?" He said simply.

"Yeah. Don't know why, but it's the coolest to me."

"Hmmmmmmm," was all he simply got out. "I see."

At that moment, I gave up. "Nigga, why- will you step the hell back? You don't gotta be so close." It was then my instincts went crazy, telling me to move out of the way. But since this new primal aspect of me was entirely new I hesitated, not knowing what to expect or how to move. By the time I decided to listen to them, it was too late.

*SLAP*

The other three (after Mohammed stopped groping his new form) were shocked to hear the sound of fur slapping against fur. Specifically, Jonta'e's paw was hanging in the air while my head was knocked to the side. I guffawed as I shifted my eyes and head back to him. Oh, hell no! He was NOT going to do THIS shit! Nu-uh! I was about to yell but his other paw came up and slapped my other cheek, before his previous paw followed it. His face contorted into one of pure jolly as a devious smirk coated his muzzle. In addition, with that small glint in his glasses… trust me; this has to be the most evil look a Zoroark can ever give.

"God, and I thought your face was slappable before! Oh my! Hehehahahaha~! It's like slapping a furry toy!"

"No! Stop it you fucker!" I yelled at him, my eyes comically going white (which Mohammed gasped at and exclaimed "Anime memes!") as I tried to block or catch his paws. I block his left one so he came in with the right, which I also blocked. His left then quickly balled his claws up into a fist before he rushed down and moderately punched me in my right side.

"GAH! F-Fuc-ack!" I hate it when he does that! My sides have got to be my only weak spots! I uncontrollably crumpled a bit to the right, holding my side. Jonta'e's muzzle grew wider as I saw his fangs glint in the light before he up and slapped the fuck out of me with his left claw, which forced my head to turn up. Let me tell you, having your head turn one way while your body is turned another isn't a good thing because my body turned from its right and spun to the left. I comically twisted and fell to my belly on the grass. Jonta'e just couldn't control himself as he took a few steps back and placed his paws on his knees. He let out a hacking laugh until he ran out of air to laugh. He took a deep breath to gain more air before he began to laugh his ass off, feeling real accomplished with himself.

If I had to guess, I think the other three were sweat dropping at the whole exchange, which slowly got bigger the more they dropped down their heads. Jonta'e just kept laughing which really looked unnerving thanks to his new body.

"… What the fuck is up with this guy?" Kai asked as he watched his Trainer-turned-Typhlosion on the ground, trying to get up.

"Dude, I've stopped trying to figure that out for a long time now." Mohammed said.

Mira placed a small paw to her chin and tilted her chin. "And… he's friends with Rey? Does he do that a lot? Attacking him?"

Mohammed just nodded with a small sigh. "More than you know. He gets some kinda sick jolly's out of doing that for some reason. I never saw the appeal."

Mira shook her head before calling out to Jonta'e. "Um, I'd actually advise against playing around like that with Rey. He's a Fire-type right now."

Jonta'e managed to calm himself down and looked to her with a questioning gaze. "And what does that have to do with anything? He's gonna burn me?"

I wasn't even paying attention anymore. I growled and got to my knees, looking to Jonta'e. I don't know why but just seeing him get so happy over this shit all the fucking time just… ticked me off. More than usual actually. I balled my fists up and growled a literal beast-like growl as I felt my body heat up exponentially. I heard a *FWOOSH* and felt a mass of heat on the back of my neck, which caught his attention along with the others. I could feel another growl building in my throat, while my eyes were only focused on the Zoroark in front of me.

"You… you… gah! Fuck you, asshole! I've had it with your stupid shit!" I roared as my body exploded in flames, igniting and burning away the grass around me. The temperature around the area increased and kept growing, while the others, except Mira, shielded themselves from the force I was producing.

Mira sighed and shook her head. "No matter how docile they are all Fire-types have horrible tempers under the surface. Antagonizing one is just begging for trouble, you big dummy."

Kai snickered at her words. "Hehehehe, Mira, Mew herself, called you a dummy. What a low-point."

Jonta'e rounded on them, not looking pleased but at the same time not angry. "Maybe instead of your Kindergarten name-calling, you tell me how the hell to calm him down?"

Mira and Kai looked to each other for a few moments before looking to him and shrugging. Though Kai did manage to give some advice.

"Let him hit you back!"

Note, it wasn't good advice.

Jonta'e eyes quickly shifted to me. A second later, his new Pokémon reflexes kicked in which allowed him to duck below the 'Mega Punch' that I had thrown in my blind anger. Would you look at that? I learned another move. My flames had dispelled from around me though my body heat was still high and my back flames were burning bright. All I cared about right now was getting my well-deserved personal revenge for all of the times Jonta'e found amusement in his little physical assaults. He quickly side-stepped from under me and stepped back but I was on him, surging forward with both fists glowing blue. I threw wild punches, not used to feeling this kind of anger so I couldn't control my strikes. I only cared about managing to hit him. I saw the apprehension in his eyes as he miraculously dodged every hit. God! This was so infuriating! I know for a fact that his reflexes aren't this good! Is it because he is a Pokémon now? A fox Pokémon at that! I always knew that he was a shifty bastard but this was just some form of irony.

Jonta'e tried to talk sense into me while I kept up my onslaught. "Hey! (Ducks a punch) Stephan! Chill out! (Sidesteps another) Dude, you know that it's not even that serious! I don't even hit you hard! (Steps back from hammer blow) STEPHAN!" His breath was caught in his throat as I threw in an unsuspecting 'Mega Kick' to his stomach. Saliva dripped from his muzzle before I sent him tumbling backwards in the dirt. Mohammed gave a visible wince from the strike before looking to the both of us rapidly. He then looked to Mira. "Aren't you gonna do something!? Steph's out of his mind!"

Mira just smiled to him brightly. "Actually, he's still fully thinking for himself. He's just been given the reign to let out pent up emotion is all! I think that this is going to be very therapeutic!"

She was right, too. That was strangely therapeutic! For some reason, the raging fire inside of me (or maybe the one on my neck) after landing that attack. Though, I didn't feel like stopping… before I knew it, I was charging up a 'Mega Punch' and charged at the Shiny Zoroark who was getting back to his feet. My sensitive ears heard growling coming from him as his cyan eyes practically became pints. His right fist glowed with dark power and the next thing I know, I felt a fist plant into my face as my world flipped upside down. I groaned in a daze before I got up to a knee. Just what in the hell was that!?

"Whoa! 'Sucker Punch'! And he didn't even need to train to use that!" Mira exclaimed.

'Sucker Punch'? Damn, that's a good hit. And of course he got me with it because I was about to hit him beforehand. I just growled and stood up facing him, about to charge forward but then we were both picked up around the waist by… Mohammed's tails? We both looked to him, his arms crossed.

"Put us down." Jonta'e told him blandly but Mohammed just lightly chopped our heads. Or light to him because if felt my skull throbbing when it made contact. Fuck, that hurt! I grit my fangs and grabbed my head while Jonta'e did the same. I wear, was that an unintentional 'Brick Break' or what?

"No. You two are being stupid. Chill out so we can actually, I don't know, have fun instead of pickin' fights with each other. Okay?"

I felt my temper calm down and looked to his tail around my waist. Jonta'e's eyes went back to their normal size but he still gave me a sideways glare, which had me feeling like an ass. I turned away from his gaze and scratched behind my left ear.

"Uh…sorry. That's…you know I'm not-"

"You know what? Fuck it. I got you back, didn't I?" Jonta'e still sounded a little miffed (and he has every right to be) but he didn't look mad all that much. So… I guess I'm okay? So, I just looked down to the tail holding me up.

"How did you learn to do this?" I asked to Mohammed.

"I…" he started but then he found himself looking confused. "Uh… I don't know. I just thought about it and it happened, I guess? Anyway…" he unwrapped his tails from around us and dropped us to our feet, "let's go exploring! I want to see some other Pokemon!"

"I couldn't have said it better myself!" Mira exclaimed.

Kai held out a paw to her. "Wait a sec, shouldn't you transform into something a lot less conspicuous?"

Mira smiled brightly. "Already got it covered!" In a flash of 'Transform' she was an Espeon. The drastic change surprised Jonta'e and Mohammed because they didn't know about her ability to do that.

"You can turn into other Pokemon!? Damn!" Mohammed exclaimed.

"What's that one supposed to be?" Jonta'e asked.

"Right now, I'm an Espeon. A Psychic-type from the Johto region. Now if you're all done talking, let's get a move on!" And like that, she took off with crazy speed. The rest of us yelping in shock as she was speeding away quick, so we rushed after her. My body's instincts took over for me again because I was running forth on all-fours to keep ahead of the others but they weren't left that far behind. Real question was how Mohammed was keeping up with that bulky body. Maybe he was used to it since he's naturally a big guy even as a human.

3rd POV

"Whoa".

The collective word came from the mouths of the three humans-turned-Pokémon and Kai while Mira was sitting on her haunches with a smile on her features. They group of five were looking at a mass of Pokemon playing in a lake, through the trees, or on the grassy field. Pansage, Pansear, and Panpour, were all playing together in the field while one of their parents each, Simisage, Simisear, and Simipour, watched them. Lillipup and Herdier were chasing each other as two Stoutland were watching them. Pidove and Tranquil flew overhead while Patrat scurried along the ground. Oshawott, Dewott, and Samurott were in the water, along with Palpitoed, Seismitoad, and even other Water-types from other regions. Such Pokemon being Staryu, Starmie, Lanturn, and Politoed. There were just a lot of Pokemon here, to emphasize. The icing on the cake was the fact that they could all understand the various and rampant conversation that was happening around them.

Jonta'e fixed his glasses on his face. "So… these are what actual Pokemon are like, huh?"

Rey nodded and nudged him. "Really different from the games, huh?"

"And the anime." Mohammed threw in.

Kai and Mira rounded on him with wide eyes. "Wait, there's aPokémon anime!?"

"Uh… yeah? Wait, you didn't know that?"

They then directed their stares to Rey who found a new interest in his claws.

"When were you going to tell us we had our own anime, dude? I mean… Naruto is an anime so that means ours has to be just as awesome." Kai spoke which made Rey snort and Jonta'e to go 'Hmmm' as he kept quiet on breaking the Riolu's heart. Rey looked to him and then Mira.

"Look, trust me when I say I was most definitely going to get you both into it. But for one, it's hard to jump between multiple anime if they're long-running and you aren't caught up. And for two, it only starts getting really good up to Sinnoh. Unova turns out to be a big mistake and then it kicks all of the ass in Kalos. So from Kanto through Hoenn, don't get your hopes up."

"Well no matter what you say we still want to watch it!" Mira gripped making Rey hold out his paws to her in defense.

"Okay! We can watch a few episodes when we get back home, alright? But before that, can we please have fun with all of these Pokémon?"

Mira and Kai held their gazes for a little longer before dropping them. They huffed and walked to the vast assortment of mon's making Rey lift his arms in a 'seriously?' gesture, before sighing and following. Jonta'e and Mohammed right behind him. Some of the Pokemon turned to look at us and nonchalantly ran over to us with big smiles.

"Hey, new friends! Hello!" A Patrat said while waving at them.

"Where did you all come from? You're all new around here?" A Pidove asked as he flew over and perched on Mohammed's shoulder. His fur bristled; he jerked a tad from having him perched there, either from shock or happiness. None of the humans-turned-Pokemon or Kai knew what to say to them… well, Mira did. She demonstrated as she strolled up to Petrat and smiled at him.

"Yeah, we are. We're only passing through this place…but you all look like you're having fun! Can we join in!?"

"Sure!" A Herdier walked over with a Lillipup on his back, smiling brightly at them. "Come on! Join, us!"

Kai smiled and ran in front of Rey. "Come on, Rey! Let's go!" He then ran into the fray with Rey holding out a pay in an attempt to call out to his partner but just grinned and followed after him. With that, the group just started to do their own thing. Mohammed, being such a large and bulky Pokémon , was being used as a jungle gym for the lot of small ones. They also played with his tails when they saw how long they were. Mohammed even brought a game from his world to these Pokémon, that being the concept of jump-rope. After telling them how it was played, he used his tails as the ropes. A Pokemon with actual hands or paws that allowed them to grasp things, would hold one end while they and Mohammed would swing it around. Pokémon children were having a blast as they hopped over it over and over. Even celebrated when they managed to jump inside the 'rope' and start jump-roping.

Jonta'e was wandering around a little bit, feeling that this whole situation was a little surreal. How could he not? He was a Pokémon, hanging around with Pokémon, in the actual Pokémon world. Some tried to play with him, others tried to talk, and a few were honestly trying to catch his attention. A few female Pokemon such as a Lilligant, Leavanny, and Mienshao. The Leavanny and Lilligant, Jonta'e didn't at all feel the slightest inkling towards an attraction, even with his new Pokémon body and genes. His rational mind won over as he told himself 'I will not have sex with a bug on two legs or a walking plant'. Yet he was honestly felt a bit compelled with the latter. He never saw her species before but she was definitely a lot easier on the eyes in his opinion.

'Wait, am I seriously thinking about fucking a goddamn Pokémon ?' He thought to himself. Yeah …it had to have been the genes. Though he couldn't deny she looked kinda cute. The Mienshao must've noticed that she caught his eye and made her way over to him with the previous two pouting at how lucky she was. Jonta'e leaned against a tree, unknowingly making himself seem even cooler to the females, while Mienshao started to flirt with him. He honestly couldn't say that he didn't feel amused at this.

Rey, Mira, and Kai were all together and were just outright playing with other Pokémon . They played tag, hide-and-seek, raced, whatever they could to join in on the natural festivities. Kai himself was elated because these group of Pokémon didn't seem to care that he and his new friends were all Shiny's or not. They just accepted him and for him and that was an absolute first! He could tell by all their Aura's too that they genially just liked having fun or mingling with each other and he wasn't going to waste this chance to actually feel… normal. Yet all of the fun was abruptly stopped when a startling *BANG* resounded through the clearing and a net trapped a few of the wild Pokémon . Some Lillipup, Petrat, and Petilil. The playing stopped immediately before it was replaced by surprise and fright at what was going on.

"Holy shit! Who the fuck did that!?" Rey exclaimed aloud before his hears caught the sound of something moving in the bushes on the left side of them. He looked to see Kai and Mira were standing there. Looking into the bushes he saw a glint of something metallic before he rushed forward to get them out the way. Mira was already on the ball as she leaped from her space but Kai still stood in place confused, watching as some of the other Pokémon tried to free their friends but some were caught in nets themselves. He wasn't expecting Rey to grab him as and away as another net landed just where they were.

"Gah! W-Whoa! What's going on!?" Kai exclaimed, looking up to his Typhlosion Trainer. Rey looked back to the net and sighed in relief.

"'Quick Attack'. One of the best Normal-type moves ever. But there are definitely people behind all of this!" He growled and stood up. Jonta'e and Mohammed were on alert as well, as they did their best so protect the Pokémon around them. Jonta'e looked in Rey's direction.

"People!? Like…some kind of Pokémon Hunters!?"

Mira looked to him and nodded, not giving Rey the chance to answer. "Everyone, just be on alert! I'll try and stop anything that comes our way but that's no need to get careless."

Mohammed looked to her and waved his arms around frantically. "Wait a second! You're Mew! Can't you just stop all of this right now!? Kick these hunter's asses!"

Mira didn't even look to him as she found the poachers in the foliage thanks to her psychic powers. "And have all of these Pokemon get caught up in a battle? No way. And besides Rey and Kai, you two don't really know how to battle either. Technically, you're sitting ducks, too."

"How many are there?" Kai asked trying to get a proper read with his Aura but not able to fully concentrate because of all the excitement.

"Three of them in total," she sensed the presences of the Pokeballs they also have in their possession, "and they each seem to have only a single Pokemon with them. Seems like we're going to have to battle after all."

Any Pokémon that were caught in nets, Mira used 'Psychic' to rip them apart, letting the Pokemon inside free. The moment they could all move freely, they scrambled away to get out of the hidden hunter's sights.

"Gah! Goddamnit!" Came a gruff voice from the bushes. One of the hunters stood up and had a look that didn't not seem happy. He was a gruff looking guy with a full on beard and seemed to be in his mid 30s with tan skin. He carried a boozoka in his hands which was had to have been firing those nets. He wore camouflage clothing as well.

"That Espeon let our catch free! How did it even break those nets!?" Another one stood up and walked out of the foliage, having a light skin tone and seemed to be in his early 20s. He wore black mainly and was also sporting his own bazooka. "Those were at least as strong as steel! And we pretty Poké-Power resistant!"

The last one, surprisingly the only woman of the group with short red hair, a dark blue belly shirt and black pants with gloves, stood up. She also seemed to be a young adult in her early to mid 20's, while she placed her own bazooka down. She and the first guy waked out to join the second out of the bushes, staring down Rey, Jonta'e, Mohammed, Mira, and Kai, as they were the only Pokémon in the clearing. The other's having made a hasty exit as to not get caught by the hunters.

The girl smirked and looked over the five of them. "Not just that Espeon…but look at the other four! Typhlosion, Zoroark, Electivire, and Riolu. Three fully evolved Pokémon with one of them being naturally rare to find in the wild on top of being Abnormal Shiny's. Just getting one of them would have us set for years but five in a single setting will have us made until we're in our golden years."

"Heh", the second male smirked and grabbed for his Pokeball at his belt, "you know what? You're right. Why go for small fry when we can just go for the top game? I'm on board, Cass."

The newly named Cass nodded her head and reached for her Pokeball, as well. "Good to hear Jack." She looked over to the older man. "Kenny?"

Kenny grinned and grabbed for his own. "Why not. This kinda shit was getting boring anyway. I know I want a good haul. Maybe even get me a villa on some mountain side of some shit with the reward money."

The fivePokémon listened to this and got upset though only three of them were battle ready. Rey, Mira, and Kai, of course since they had more experience at battling Pokemon. Though Rey was feeling even more giddy since he was currently a Pokémon as well. Hopefully, he would be able to unlock some new moves, preferably Fire-type ones.

"Let's go Druddigon!" Kenny yelled throwing his Pokeball.

"Scolipede, get 'em!" This time it was Jack.

"And Drapion, go!" Cass yelled, throwing her own Pokeball.

All three Pokémon burst open and in a mix of blue and white light, their Pokémon all formed in a line, giving their own little declarations to signify they were ready to get to work. Druddigon roared like what any dragon would do. Scolipede only narrowed his eyes while Drapion smirked at us.

("Heh. Check it out, guys. 5 for the cage with 4 of 'em being special circumstances.") Drapion snarked at them, looking over Rey, Jonta'e, Mohammed, and Kai. Kai growled at the larger Pokémon, knowing exactly just what he was talking about.

("Now that is interesting. We get this haul and we'll all be living in pure luxury.") Scolipede said in a posh accent while Druddigon just laughs loudly.

("Who gives a damn about that!? I just want a good fight! You lot better make this interesting for us!")

Jonta'e and Mohammed tried to gather their nerves for the upcoming battle, willing to fight even though they had no experience battling Pokémon. Rey growled and brought a fist up near his face. ("Oh, we're gonna do a whole lot more than make this shit interesting.")

("That's right! Bring it on!") Kai exclaimed, adjusting his fists near his waist and keeping his legs spread apart with his feet steady to move at a moment's notice.

Druddigon grinned and leaned forward a little, light gleaming from his claws. ("Heh. Now that's what I wanted to hear! Like your spunk pipsqueak!")

Mohammed and Jonta'e both stepped beside the three of them. Mohammed looked to Mira and Rey. ("Look, we don't care what you two think! But we can help if you just let us! Not to mention, I'll so pissed at the both of you for not letting me check having a fight like this off my bucket list!")

("I just don't want to hang back and act helpless. We can learn on the spot.") Jonta'e said, his eyes narrowing behind his glasses.

Before Rey or Mira could get out a word, the hunters decided to kick-start the action. More specifically, Kenny. "Alright, Druddigon! No more chit-chat with the walking gold-mines! Use Dragon Rage!" Druddigon grinned and leaned his head back, a blue energy gathering in his opened maw, putting the five opposing Pokemon on high alert.

("Fine! You two can fight, just-") Mira started before Druddigon roared and fired the blast of draconic energy, which momentarily took the form of a dragon as well.

("DODGE!") Rey yelled making them all jump out of the way, Mohammed and Jonta'e impressed and the jumping prowess they had as they leaped 10ft in the air to avoid the energy blast. They landed on the ground to the left, with Rey and Kai on the right. Mira had jumped backwards and landed a few paces back where she was. Jack directed an arm to Rey and Kai while Cass did the same to Jonta'e and Mohammed.

"Drapion, Pin Missile!"

"Scolipede, Poison Sting!"

Drapion chuckled and spat a mass of white-green-sharp-looking energy blasts while Scolipede spat a barrage of purple needles. Rey moved in front of Kai and let the instincts of his new form take over. His roared and felt the flames on the back of his neck blast to life. He took a deep breath and felt the flames building inside before letting them loose. ("Flamethrower!") Spitting out the torrent of flames, they collided with the 'Pin Missile' canceling it out before there was an explosion of smoke and dust from the collision. Mohammed and Jonta'e, however, weren't used to being in the heat of an actual battle, let alone having superpowers blasted at them. Mira was on the ball, teleporting in front of them and creating a wall of psychic power, stopping the needles in their tracks.

("Uh…thanks.") Jonta'e said to her, while she turned to them with a knowing look.

("Look, if you two are serious about battling, then I can't leave you defenseless. This should help, alright?") Hey eyes glowed that blue, psychic glow that was known for whenever those kinds of powers were used. The two of them gasped and felt small headaches coming on before they saw things in their minds-eyes. The two of them performing various moves, particularly to those of the species they were. ("There. I've imparted knowledge to you both about using some moves Zoroark and Electivire and known for. Nothing to crazy or complicated but they should help. And don't fight the instincts of your new bodies, that's what's going to help you out! Now get in gear!")

("Right!") They exclaimed, feeling a lot more confident now, which was evident in their eyes. Mohammed grinned, his fur beginning to spark everywhere with yellow electricity. He walked forward, and arms near his chest.

("Oh, this is gonna be so badass! Here's Thunderbolt, bitch!") He threw his arms out, as thunder coated his body before arching over to Scolipede, and striking him dead on, making him cry out in pain at being shocked down to every cell in his body. When the pillar lost energy and stopped, Scolipede took a single step backward, his body sparked a little from the aftermath of the attack and he growled at Mohammed.

"Scolipede! Shake that off!" Cass commanded her Pokemon, who shook his head and did so. Though he was obviously pretty ticked at his attacker, who just grinned, looking at his new hands as if they had the power to change the world. In that moment, they might as well have been.

("That is it. Now you've got me upset.") Scolipede said lowly as he got ready to fight more. Cass looked to the three opposing Pokemon, narrowing her eyes.

"Nuisances, these Pokémon."

Jack and Kenny grinned while Kenny said, "It's better to even the odds! Like this, for instance." He and Jack were still targeting Rey and Kai and both gave their own commands.

"Druddigon, Thunder Punch that Typhlosion!"

"Drapion, you use Shadow Ball on the Riolu! Keep firing until you hit it!"

The two acted immediately on their orders, Druddigon running towards Rey with both fists sparking with electrical power, intent on bringing the hurt. Fire growled and made his own fists, the blue energy of one of the strongest Normal-type moves,'Mega Punch', activating as he rushed to meet his foe head on. Both roared and reared back a right arm. Sending them flying, they each slammed their punches into the other's face, knocking their opponent into a daze. They persisted and roared at the other, moving, circling, ducking, and punching. They kept moving and punching, sometimes missing, sometimes canceling the other out and the rest, outright aiming to beat the shit out of each other. Drapion, meaning while, began to spit blast after shadowy blast of ghostly spheres at Kai.

("Gah! Shit!") Kai exclaimed before he leaped to one side and kept running, 'Shadow Balls' making craters in the ground where he previously was. Drapion fired in front of him making Kai take a drastic leap backwards, where he backflipped and landed on the ground, skidding to a halt. Though another 'Shadow Ball' was quickly rushing towards him, with not enough time to dodge. He grit his teeth and crossed his arms over his face to block as the black and purple orb slammed into him in a burst of smoky-mist. He yelled in pain as he was sent flying back, tumbling on the ground. Rey quickly looked back to him.

("Kai!") His concern costed him as Druddigon slammed a 'Thunder Punch' into his abdomen, making the Typh hunch over in pain.

("Heh. Keep your eyes on me! I'm your opponent wimp!") He brought his electric fists overhead, about to give Rey and hammer blow to his back but Rey was quick to react. He sidestepped the fists as they crashed into the ground, making a crater and kicking up debris. Rey bounded from the toes on his right foot and jump to him. Rey landed on his head which had Druddigon growl up to him. ("Hey! Get the hell off me furball!")

("Oh, screw off, bitch!") Rey countered. Druddigon quickly stood and threw his 'Thunder Punch'-coated fists upwards to attack him but Rey jumped high over the strike, making the Dragon-type hit air. Rey extended his right leg, his foot glowing a deep blue as he flipped forward a few times and yelled his attack.

("Eat this! Mega Battle Axe!") His heel came crashing down on Druddigon's rock-hard cranium, his eyes widening a split second before his whole body slammed into the dirt, creating a crater twice his size with his visage practically imprinted on the space he crashed into. Rey landed on his back and jumped off him. He saw that Druddigon was still in the game but he was knocked for a loop.

"Shit! Druddigon, get your scaly ass up! Come on!" Jack yelled to him, but Druddigon was a bit too dazed to follow through with that order. While his current opponent was down for the moment, he looked to see that Kai and Mira were both fending off against Drapion. Kai nailed a 'Blaze Kick' to Drapion's side making the Poison/Dark-type yell in pain before he was commanded to strike with 'Knock Off'. He grabbed Kai and slammed him hard into the ground, making the Riolu bounce on the grass but Mira had his back by catching him with a 'Psychic'. She then directed that 'Psychic' on Drapion, picking him up and slamming him into the ground. She did it a few times before stopping, satisfied with the amount of punishment she just dished out. Seemed like it wasn't enough to put him down for good because he still got up, be it on shaky legs and retaliated with 'Pin Missile at point-blank range. Mira took the super effective attack head on, putting on a face of pain but in all honesty, she barely felt it. She was still a Mew after all and it would take a Legendary attack or many hundreds of consecutive super effective moves to harm her. And that would be if she didn't deflect or outright stop them all.

Rey glanced over to the last fight, wondering how Jonta'e and Mohammed were currently doing. He was a mix of surprised and not so surprised at their battle. Scolipede slammed a 'Poison Tail' into Mohammed, knocking him backwards onto his back. He landed with a groan while Scolipede made an impressive leap for a Pokemon his size and aimed to strike him with 'Poison Tail' but Jonta'e used 'Agility' and blurred in front of Mohammed, his arms spread wide with two balls of white energy glowing between them. He slammed the ends of his paws together and making the two orbs conjoin into a larger one. His cyan eyes glowed behind his glasses lightly.

("Hyper Beam!") The roar of his attack was followed by the explosive blast of the move itself. Everyone besides Mira went wide-eyes at seeing the Unovan version of the massive beam of white energy overcome Scolipede entirely, swallowing his form before a large explosion rocked the clearing. Water from the pond kicked up in large waves while the force blew leaves from the trees. The trees in the immediate vicinity bended the opposite direction from the results of the attack. When the smoke cleared away, Scolipede fell down in a thud, knocked out, indicated by the spirals in his eyes.

("H-Holy shit…that was like a…Final Flash or something.") Mohammed said from his position on the ground, referencing Vegeta's iconic finishing move from Dragon Ball Z.

("Whoa! 'Hyper Beam'!?") Rey exclaimed before looking to Mira and gesturing to Jonta'e with an arm. ("He has fucking 'Hyper Beam'!?")

("And it seemed like a very good choice to give him~") She replied in a sing-song voice. The hunters couldn't believe that they lost a Pokemon though. None more so than Cass.

"No way! Dammit Scolipede, get back up!" She yelled out in frustration but Scolipede only groaned, not having the strength to move. She growled and returned him before looking to her compatriots. "If you two screw this up…!"

"Tch. Please. Have a bit more faith in us than that, Cass. We got this!" Jack said as Drapion and Druddigon, who got back up, stood in front of them. Jonta'e breathed a bit heavy and sank to a knee.

("Huff...huff…s-shit. That was…cool but…tiring.") He said, a bit of sweat dripping from his head to the ground. Mira moved over to him and placed a paw on his leg, sending out waves of pink energy over him, restoring his stamina.

("'Hyper Beam' is one of the strongest of all Normal-type moves…but inexperienced Pokemon need to rest after using it only once. If you had a lot more practice with it, you could fire it more and more times before needing a break. So, I'll just use 'Heal Pulse' to get your strength back.") She said to him. Jonta'e could feel his strength coming back to him as he was back on his feet a few seconds later. He smirked down to her and nodded his thanks which he did back.

"Damn, that Espeon just helped that Zoroark back up!" Jack yelled, narrowing his eyes at the Zoroark helping the Electivire up to his feet. Mohammed grinned, his body sparking again as his tail arched over his head, lightning sparking between the two of them. "Dammit, let's gang up on them! Hit 'em hard, Kenny!"

"Didn't want to have to seriously hurt the merchandise but that seems unavoidable now! Druddigon, let's go! Thunder Punch!") Druddigon roared in elation as he charged at Rey and Kai. Rey looked to Mira.

("Mira, teleport Mohammed here!")

Mohammed quickly gasped and was about to yell 'what the hell!?' but he flashed blue and vanished before reappearing in front of Rey, the 'Thunder Punch' slammed into Moahmmed, who gasped and jerked back from being punched…yet he didn't feel it. The pain. It didn't erupt in his stomach as he expected…except the electricity was absorbed through his fur before the nodes on his head sparked. His fur sparked once more, except crazier and more abundant than before. Druddigon's eyes widened as he took a step back before stepping away a bit more.

("W-What…what the…")

("I'm…okay?") Mohammed asked himself as he looked to his sparking hands. He looked to Rey with a questioning gaze.

("Electivire's main Special Ability is Motor Drive. Electric attacks get absorbed into your body and increases your speed. So…think you can handle that Druddigon?") Rey asked which put a grin on the Shiny Electivire's face, before he grinned at the Dragon-type.

Kai ran next to Mohammed and looked to him. ("I wanna help!")

("Sure, dude.") Mohammed said as he bent his knees down and blurred from his position to in front of Druddigon, sparks being left in his wake. His fists were alit with flames before he drew his left arm back.

("Fire Punch!") The Electric-type yelled before he slammed his fist hard into Druddigon's abdomen, making him cough out saliva and hunch over.

"'Dragon Rage' Druddigon!" Kenny commanded. Druddigon grinned and got ready to blast Mohammed with the dragonic blast but Kai ran up until he was under Druddigon. His right foot blazed to life before he jumped and drew his leg back before making it fly upwards.

("Blaze Kick!") Kai's flaming foot slammed into Druddigon's chin, cancelling the attack and making him cough the explosion in his own mouth. 'Dragon Rage' blowing up knocked Druddigon for a daze as he stumbled back in a daze, trying and failing to regain his footing.

"What!? Druddigon, get your act together!" Kenny yelled at his dazed dragon to no avail.

("Well, if he's not going to do somethin'…") Mohammed said as he blurred behind Druddigon and used his tails to wrap around the dragon's arms tightly. He forced him to the ground on his belly, a foot on his back as he grinned and crossed his arms. He began to spark like crazy, loving his electric powers. ("Now this is how you finish a fight! Thunderbolt!") Calling out the name of his final attack, his body overloaded with 20,000 volts of power, surging from his body to his tails and foot as he electrocuted Druddigon without remorse. The Dragon-type roared in pain, his eyes whitening entirely and when the surge finally stopped his whole body was steaming. Mohammed's tails unwrapped from his arms seeing that he was down for the count.

"Druddigon! No freaking way!" Kenny yelled, not believing that his own Pokemon was taken down. That left only Jack and Drapion, but those two weren't going to last at all. Not against a 5 on 1 battle.

"S-shit! I think...I think we need to get out of here!" Jack said making Cass growl.

"Hate to say it but I think you're right. These Pokémon are tougher than we gave 'em credit for."

Kenny returned Druddigon and looked to them. "Gah! So much for a haul!"

("Oh, hell no! You assholes ain't goin' anywhere!") Rey said as he stared directly at Drapion. ("You start shit, you end it!") He looked over to the Shiny Zoroark. ("Jonta'e, time to finish this!") He then looked to Mira as well. ("Mind helping a little?")

Mira smirked and nodded. ("I'll do what I can.")

Jonta'e grinned and used a claw to push the middle of his glasses up on his muzzle, making them glint in the light. ("Well…if you want me to help…why not?") He sounded a little bored but Rey knew better. Jonta'e was more than happy to help at the moment; wanting to try and use more of his powers. Rey and Jonta'e practically spoke with their eyes, not feeling the need to speak and thankfully, Mira was a Psychic-type, so she read their surface thoughts on their attack plan. It made her smirk as well as her eyes glowed blue. The sight made the hunters back up.

"What the hell are they about to do now!?" Cass asked her companions but they just shook their heads, not having a way to answer. Jack even forgot all about returning Drapion as the Dark-type looked between the three Pokemon in front of him. Jonta'e growled and balled his claws up into fists, letting his Zoroark instincts take over as he felt power building up inside of him. That same energy, which was coated red, began to leak from him, rushing in an uncontrolled wave of shockwaves which had Rey recognize it as his species signature attack. Rey turned his focus back to Drapion, his left foot glowing blue with 'Mega Kick'.

("Here we go you two!") Mira exclaimed before Jonta'e vanished in a blue warp of teleport, appearing in front of Drapion and throwing his arms to the ground, unleashing all the built-up energy. ("Night Daze!") Drapion caught the full brunt of the Dark-type shockwave, sending him off his feet and blowing him away. The hunters were also knocked off their feet from the blast, a mass spiral of dust and dirt kicked up from the energy. Mira then teleported Rey at the area Drapion was going to land, with the Typhlosion spinning backwards on his right foot and slamming his 'Mega Kick' heel into his side. Drapion yelled in pain from the second attack, knocking him in the dirt between the two of them.

Jonta'e rose his left paw to his face, practically looking bored as he stared at it. He opened his claws and flexed them afterwards, making a burst of dark energy coat it as his chest fur and mane wavered in the rush of power. Rey kept his right fist to his side as he stared at Drapion. He growled and made a tight fist, as his charged his strongest 'Mega Punch' gaining the same effect as Jonta'e with his lower-back and unruly-looking fur wavering from the miniature shockwaves rolling from the move. Drapion quickly looked between the two of them, not sure what to do, especially since Jack wasn't giving him any form of commands. So, he roared and pointed a single claw at them, them glowing white as he was about to use 'Pin Missile' without a command but the two humans-turned-Pokémon capitalized on that immediately, indicated by their eyes jerking upwards. Rey rushed forward with 'Quick Attack' and Jonta'e did the same with 'Agility', shocking Drapion into stopping. Rey and Jonta'e gave slowly increasing yells before they threw their right and left hooks respectively.

("Mega/Sucker Punch!")

They slammed their fists into Drapion's left and right cheeks at the same time. Drapion's pain receptors went into overdrive and his eyes blurred from the twin strike, as the *BOOM* that sounded off made everyone flinch. A couple seconds later, there was a blast of blue and black cratering the ground to be 5 times the size of Drapion along with sending multiple spider cracks through it. Earth upturned and the pond from the edge towards the center practically blasted upwards from the shockwaves rolling from the dual attacks. The three hunters, who were already on the ground, were sent flying, crashing into trees and knocking them out entirely. Kai flew off his feet from the force but he was caught by Mohammed extending his tails, already his favorite limbs, to wrap around him and catch him. Said Electivire held his ground along with Mira, but she placed a psychic wall in front of them so the force would rush over them anymore. After 7 seconds of rolling air bursts, it died down. Rey and Jonta'e were standing in the crater they made, standing over Drapion who was still standing. Except he was leaning backwards, his arms were slumped to his sides and his eyes were swirls. Jonta'e shrugged and lifted a foot, planting it to the Ogre Scorpion's side and tipping him over. Rey moved back and watched him fall over in a thud.

"Whoops." Jonta'e said simply as he and Rey waked out of the crater to Mira, Kai, and Mohammed. The latter jumped up in elation and jerked his arms up and down rapidly.

"Yoooo! That. Was. Fucking awesome! I can stay like this forever!" He looked to Mira and got to his knees. "Please!? Can I!?"

Kai narrowed his eyes and tilted his head to the larger Pokémon. "Dude, will you calm the hell down and get your shit together. Don't ruin how cool you were just 5 minutes ago." His deadpan tone made Mohammed a little embarrassed evident by the hint of red on his cheeks. Mira laughed and sensed for any presences in the vicinity and many miles out. Not picking up on any human signatures, he glowed before turning back into her normal Mew form.

"As fun as that would be, you know I can't do that~" She said in that playful tone of hers, flying around Mohammed's head. He had anime tears rolling down his face at the decline of his wish, shocking the hell out of him and Jonta'e. Mohammed gasped and felt his face, feeling that they were wet with wide lines of tears.

"Holy crap! I did the anime crying thing! Awww, I don't wanna leave this world!" He began to cry a whole lot more now, tears sprouting from his face like two fountains and getting the grass wet. Kai moved away from Mohammed so he wouldn't get cried on while Jonta'e jerked back visibly off-put at seeing such a crazy display of emotion, he's only seen on TV. That was one thing…this was another.

"Dude…control yourself," he said with a slight sneer, "that's really unnerving to see."

"That's so cool!" Rey exclaimed with a smile as he continued to watch the spectacle. He was slightly disappointed when Mohammed got a hold of himself and sniffed a few times, wiping his eyes.

"Sniff…dammit…I wanna stay…as an Electivire." Mohammed said in a sulking fashion. Mira and Kai looked to Rey with a shrug, not knowing what to say in the current situation.

Rey thought it over before he sighed and walked to his friend, minding the wet ground. He patted his younger brother in all but blood -and species- on the head, making Mohammed rub look to him. "Well…um…I still need to keep training and all, you know…to perfect my powers and learn more moves. So…I guess that, on those days, if neither of you have anything else to do, you both can keep coming with me to-ACK!" His words were cut off as he was found in the middle of a crazy-strong bear hug from Mohammed who jumped to his feet and gave a loud 'YAAAAY!' to the sky while Rey's face turned blue from the absence of air. Kai yelled in fright at seeing his Trainer's expression and he jumped up to the Electivire's arms to pry them off of Rey.

"Arceus, you're killing him! Let go, you crazy goon! Let go!"

Mohammed, like the child he is, whined and shook his head, holding Rey closer. "No! I'm giving my bro a hug and you can't stop me! You won't stop me!"

"HELP!" Rey cried out in a strangled yell.

Jonta'e snickered at the sight. "Yo, Mohammed, I don't think you're showing him enough love. You should try harder."

"Okay!" Mohammed exclaimed, putting the strength on his crazy hug into overdrive.

Rey wanted to yell 'traitor' at the top of his lungs to Jonta'e but couldn't barely catch his breath. He growled and burned hot, his back flames going off and his fur rising several degrees higher. Mohammed gave a yell of pain and let go quickly, unintentionally throwing Kai to the ground. Mohammed began blowing on his arm to cool them down while Kai growled at being thrown to the ground. He got up, walked to Mohammed, and 'Black Kicked' him in the shin. Mohammed gave a yelp as he grabbed his burning ankle and started to hop around like crazy.

"GAH! Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow! Why'd you do that!?" He yelled to Kai landing on his butt and then blowing on his ankle. Jonta'e was laughing at the hilarity in front of him, hunched over and resting his paws on his knees, with Rey sitting on the ground and trying to catch his breath. When he got a significant amount or air he walked over to Jonta'e and clocked him over the head, forcing him to stop laughing. He gave a 'gah!' before he rubbed his head, glaring at Rey who ignored him and walked to the poachers. He kneeled in front of them, seeing as they were knocked out together, and began to feel around Jack's jacket for something. The others saw what he was doing and walked over to him.

"Dude, what are you doing?" Kai asked.

"Well…these guys must have phones or something on them. Figured it'd be best to call the police to get these guys." He found what he was looking for, grabbing a black smart phone from the shirt pocket. Mira floated over to him.

"I can do you one even better! Let's just teleport to the nearest city to a police station instead. That'll make it easier."

Rey smiled and nodded. "That does sound a lot easier! Though, uh…" he looked to Jonta'e and Mohammed before looking back to her, "I think we should really sell it though. I've got an idea."

Later

"Thank you for helping to stop these criminals young man. This group of Pokémon Hunters had been very elusive. But…how on earth did you catch them?" A Unovan Officer Jenny said as she spoke with Rey. Other officers were putting the Jack, Kenny and Cass into lock-up while having confiscated their Pokéballs and any devices on their persons. Mira had them teleported to Striaton City since that was the closest one to where they were, but made sure to warp them all on a rooftop before finding a safe place on the ground where no one would see them, before warping them down. Rey had it so that Mira turned him back to his human body as he was in this world, while Kai was on his shoulder. Jonta'e and Mohammed were still a Zoroark and Electivire while Mira herself was back to being an Espeon.

The later three were standing near Rey who shrugged and looked to his friends. "Well…I saw what they were harassing a lot of other Pokemon and I felt that I had to do something. I'm just glad that I outnumbered them an extra Pokémon and that mines were a lot stronger than theirs."

Jenny placed her hands on her hips and rose an eyebrow. "That was a risky gamble, kid. I hope you know what would've happened if you had lost. Especially with Pokemon as rare as what you have?"

Rey nodded. "Yeah, I do. They'd have taken my own Pokemon too, but I'd have tried to fight them off myself if it came to that. But I wasn't worried. These four are really strong, right guys?"

("Yeah!") Kai exclaimed.

("Hell yeah!") Mohammed exclaimed louder.

("Alright, I'll admit it. Pokémon are pretty awesome…well…being one is.") Jonta'e shrugged, checking off something on his bucket list that he didn't know he even placed on it.

Mira just laughed at the other three. Of course, Rey was the only one to currently understand them while Jenny sighed and nodded.

"And you got them all here too? I'm going to take a guess and say you had your Espeon teleport them all plus yourselves here. That must've taken a lot of energy out of it."

"My Espeon is female, ma'am…and she's honestly the strongest one here. Trust me, she's fine." Rey said with a wave of his hand. "Um…what's going to happen to their Pokémon though?"

"Well first, Nurse Joy is going to properly treat them for their injuries. Afterwards, they're either to be released into the wild or be given to people who will treat them properly. That being giving them to veteran Trainers or maybe even have them as extra muscle here at the S.P.D." Jenny narrowed her eyes a bit and crossed her arms, looking to where the criminals were being held. "I just hate it when people like that use Pokémon for their own gain. It's never the Pokémon's fault, you know?"

Rey nodded. "Yeah, I know. Bad Trainers. Not bad Pokémon….um…though there is a chance for a few exceptions."

Jenny looked to him and shrugged. "Well, I wouldn't know. The world is very large, right? Anyway, I better get back to work. Hey, I never got your name, kid."

Rey thought a little about telling her but thought nothing of it, realizing that it wouldn't really amount to much in the long run. At least, he was sure it shouldn't, especially since he's all the way here in Unova. "My name is Rey. Rey Takashi."

Jenny smiled and nodded. "I'll make sure to remember you then, Rey. Well, good bye and good luck out there."

"You too, Jenny." Rey replied before he gave a light wave then turned around and walked away, Mira, Jonta'e and Mohammed following. They walked to an area behind some buildings where no one could see them. She turned Mohammed and Jonta'e back to normal (Mohammed groaning in disappointment with Jonta'e's disappointment kept to himself), used 'Spatial Rend' to rip open a portal back to Earth Prime and the five of them jumped through before it closed behind them.

Earth Prime: Bermuda Triangle

"So…this is the area, hmm?" Suplicium was slowly flying, his trek to his intended destination finally over. The entire area was full of fog and he could see a ton of destroyed airplanes and other technology floating through the ocean, all seeming unusable and were beyond any form of repair. He hummed to himself, sensing that this fog wasn't a normal fog. He couldn't understand why that was but he could tell that the mist seemed to be trying to redirect him. He could sense it in his core, his being attempting to fly around his intended course or even turn around entirely. The Shadow Pokémon pushed on wondering what he was trying to be forced away from, even using some of his power to push away the mist from him so he would be fully unhindered.

He rose an eyebrow at what he found in the center. "An island? That's it? How…underwhelming." Underwhelming…but he was curious. What was so special about this place that is had it its own form of defense to drive others away from it? He flew higher, using a single swipe of his wings to blow away the mist for a few miles to get a batter look at the mass of land. The island itself was several miles wider, his position not allowing him to see the full-size due to not clearing away all the mist but he only cared for seeing a rough estimate. "Well I definitely wasn't expecting a place already here for me. Hehe, less work for me then. Now…how should I go about creating my place of residence in this world?"

Suplicium thought for a few moments before he looked over to the abundance of destroyed air-crafts, shipwrecks, and other large and small machinery of various kinds in the water and on the shore of the beach. His mind hatching an idea…or better yet, a variety of ideas. He chuckled before it grew into a light laugh that promised nothing good in its tone at all. "It seems that I will have to put all of that essence I collected over the years to work earlier than I thought. Better make sure they know what I wish for them to do. Can't have them wreaking havoc…not yet at least." His eyes glowed purple, wielding immense psychic power within them. Not to exert too much force in one time, lest Mira catches onto his whereabouts from the overflow of psychic power, he slowly reached out to grab as many broken machines and vehicles as he could reach. They didn't even have to be within eye-shot as giant masses of water moved from the front and the sides as he slowly lifted them from the ocean with ease. He could sense that there were more machines, on the island as well as deeper in the water but that wouldn't be a problem.

Slowly descending himself a few hundred feet, he rose the waterlogged machines to his level in the air but kept them a hundred meters away, surrounding him. His body then began to give off a black smoky power of pure malice. The energy slowly spread out, seeming to remove all forms of color from where it spread until it was encompassing a radius of a half-mile. With a grunt, he split the energy into a multitude of smoky forms before they all took various shapes. Those shapes happened to be the forms of hundreds of Rotom and dozens Alakazam. Except these Pokémon were different. They were pitch black and as they opened their eyes, they glowed an eerie red that would strike immediate fear into those with weak wills who dared to look at them. These Pokémon, looked to Suplicium and spoke as a collective unit.

"Master. What do you desire from us?"

Suplicium grinned at the use of his second deadliest power next to absorbing energy. He could create replicas from any specific essence that he steals, not only add that energy to his own power, and they would all be imbued with his will and his alone. If that wasn't enough, they were all stronger than the originals could ever be. They were just like him; Shadow Pokémon. Suplicium brought out all the destroyed shards of the Rage Onyx from his pocket dimension, having them spin around his form slowly.

"I have…business to conduct around this world as well as the Pokemon world. I'm not sure how long it will take me so while I am gone, I expect the lot of you," he gestures a wing to the flying machinery, "to use all of this, and anymore you find around here to build me a place of residence in this world. This fog will make for the perfect cover as none have been able to reach this island due to it. Though I don't wish to be ignorant of its effects either. Find out all you can about it, no matter how small. I want to know of its' surprisingly special properties. Also, make sure to not unleash too much power. Our specific Aura is impossible to sense but that isn't the same with the use of moves. Can't have annoying little Mew snooping around as long as she stays in this universe."

The Shadow Pokémon all bowed to him, the Rotom's dipping their bodies forward a bit. "It shall be done Lord Suplicium." With that, they all got to work. The Alakazam's all simultaneously using 'Psychic' to take control of the machines and placing them on the island. While they flew over the island and the water to pull more machines the Rotom's all flew around and through the machines as buzzing black and purple lights, using themselves to either bring the machines in working order or dismantling them to create something new altogether. Planes and boats were very easy to break and reuse their parts, mainly by using themselves to fly into the tech and make something new out of it. A single Rotom could transform a simple elevator into a time machine after all. Suplicium grinned before he flew off, ready to start the second phase of his plan.

XXXXXXXXXXXX

Okay, this was beyond overdue and I'm ready to put it on hold for a little bit. I have other stories that need my attention and this was supposed to have been updated two months ago. I mean…Jesus Christ. But the more I write this, the closer I get to crazier and more epic things. Like this battle…or Suplicium's plans. And now you've seen another crazy and OP power of his. The power to make a freaking army that actually know their rolls in said army. He's not pulling punches people, this demonic Pokemon is here to stay. And the shit with the island in the Bermuda Triangle and the mist…yeah, I've got plans for those things as well. Anyway, I hope a few friends of mine enjoyed reading this! Anyway, I've edited this as best as I could at the moment...but it IS night so I probably didn't get all my errors. VERY sure I didn't. So I'll take care of that later.

Rest in Pieces, bitches!
