Pokemon God/Trainer
Chapter 10
The next morning, Joe watches the sun rise from the view through the window. Joe still confuse of how he knew of that story, he looks back on the story. In fact Joe used different Pokemon on it, and suddenly the Chosen wasn't a Bayleef.
It was Scyther, so he looks at her. With their minds connected, he might be able to look into her memories. So he closes his eyes, and gone into Scyther's mind.
Joe appears in an area he never seen before, and he sees two creatures speaking to each other. A Scyther and a human, and soon more came behind them. A Buizel, Grovyle, Glameow, Froslass, and Garchomp.
Joe stayed away from them, so he just watches. Grovyle slowly disappears, and soon only Scyther and the human remain. Human begin fading away, and Scyther tries to grab him. But he is gone, as soon as she got close to him.
Scyther is left alone, and Joe now knows the story he read is from her memory. She wept and wept, and so Joe walks over to her.
Scyther saw him, and got up and went straight at him. Grabbing him with her sword likes arms, and she said, "I knew I will see you again, Ethan."
"Scyther, it's me Joe," Joe said, looking down at her.
Scyther looks up at him, and asks, "You're Joe? But you look just like Ethan…"
"Scyther, I came into your mind. Now I know the story I used last night was your memory," Joe said. "Sorry I told them, but of course they think it is just a story."
"But you must be Ethan! How else can you know my memory? I finally found you," Scyther said with joy.
"Scyther, I'm not Ethan. We may look alike, but we each are completely different. I'm not your Ethan," Joe said.
"But you must be; you look exactly alike. Even your personality," she said.
"Scyther, I'm not Ethan," Joe said, and now he believes it time to awaken. So he left her to dream her dream.
Joe opens his eyes, and waited for everyone to awaken. The sun's light appears through the window, and upon the Pokemon's eyes.
Slowly all of them awaken, and Scyther opens her eyes to see Joe. From her mind, she still believes Joe is Ethan. With everyone ready to go, Joe put them all in there balls. All except Scyther, because he still want to say something.
"Scyther, I want to know how you got to this world," Joe said to her.
"The same way you did, two years ago," She said.
"I arrive here nine days ago, not two years ago," Joe said. "And I used a spell, and that is how I arrive here."
"That is impossible," Scyther said. "I came here, because of a strange magical sphere. It had your face on it, and soon I was transported into this world."
"I've never seen your world, I've been living in my world for over a million years," Joe said.
Scyther seems so disappointed, and Joe said, "Maybe from that sphere, you may be able to see your Ethan someday."
"I don't know, maybe," Scyther said, now she wanders. Maybe Joe is Ethan and he doesn't want anyone to know…
"I'm not Ethan, Scyther," Joe said. "Remember, we're both connected through thought now."
"Maybe Ethan is gone," Scyther said, and now she begins crying.
"Scyther, there is still hope you know," Joe said, and Scyther looks at him surprise. "If he has or had, he may have or have not reincarnated into a new form."
"Reincarnated?" Scyther asks, wandering what it means.
"It means reborn, just like your Destroyer," Scyther said. "It may take less or more than ten years, but the only way he could gain his past memories. Is something he may remember from that time, but that may take a while. Plus your Ethan, he may have been born into a Pokemon instead of a human."
Scyther has her hope back, but now she wanders how she will meet her love once more. So Joe said, "I will help you find your love, but I do have my limit in this world. I only have twenty-one days left in this world. But now I know that you're from another world, so would Ethan. Ethan will have similar energy to you, since now I know you're from a different world."
"Really? You will help me find him?" Scyther asks, sounded very hopeful.
"Yes I can help you," Joe said, and with that Scyther is really happy. She went right on him, jumping into his arms and giving him a hug. Joe said to her, "Remember, I'm not Ethan…"
She looks at him, and said, "I'll try not to call you that in the future, my trainer."
"Well can you please get off of me," Joe asks her, and so she did have off him. He got up, and reaches for her ball.
Scyther asks, "I just want to know, Joe is not really your name, is it?"
"Scyther, Joe is short for my name. Joe is a name everyone I meet will call me," Joe said. "If you want to know, my name is Josephiroth." Scyther seems surprise of how big of a name that is, and so Joe said return and she gone back in the ball.
He places the ball in the last empty slot, picks up his gym bag. Picks up the keys, and went out the door. He went down the stairs, and presses the button for the elevator. Waited till it arrives, and gone in and press the first floor. Going down, faster than taking the stairs. Soon he arrives on the first floor; he went to the counter and places the keys there. Turns around to walk away, until…
"How is your grandma sir?" The owner asks.
"Are you talking to me? If you are, well I don't have a grandma," Joe said, turning around to see the man.
"You sure? Because she went up to the same floor you went to, and she came back down. She lives in the city, so I thought she just came to visit you," the owner said.
"So you're saying I was being spied on by an old woman?" Joe asks him.
He than remember Joe's face from before, from the news. He asks him, "Were you on the news?"
"About what?" Joe asks.
"You were on news in Ever Grande and at the Safari," he said.
"If I was at those spots, than how can I be here? It would take days from Safari to here," Joe said. "Now, please tell me who was spying on me?"
"Why would an old lady spy, she came to visit you. She came back down here," he said, and he remembers another thing. He put his right hand in his pocket, and pulls out a card. He said, "She dropped this when she left, you can have it."
Joe walks over, and took the card from his hand. He read the title, "Rocket Game Corner." Is this connected to Team Rocket? Joe thought. He read the address, and said good bye to him. He went out of the hotel, and gone to this place.
He came in front of two buildings, one with the title and the large tower beside it. So he went in, and saw several people. Each at a machine, learns there slot machines. He went up to a counter, and two ladies stand there.
He asks, "What is this place?"
"Sir, welcome to the Rocket Game Corner. Continue playing at the slots and earn yourself a big prize," she said.
"What are the prizes?" Joe asks her.
The second lady said, "Money prize, a Pokemon, and free trips. But you must earn enough coins for each one to obtain it."
Joe started hearing other words, coming from behind the girls. So Joe asks, "What Pokemon is there?"
"Well sir," the first lady said. "We only have one left, and it is a high prize. About ten thousand coins, for this…" The second lady went to get the Pokemon, and came back carrying a little fox. The woman continue saying, "This is a rare Pokemon, Eevee. An evolution Pokemon, in order to win it you must win ten thousand coins."
Eevee is crying for help, it said and sounded female, "Eevee Vee?" In his mind, she asks, help me please?
So Joe decided, "How much is for the coins?"
"A thousand for five hundred coins," she said.
Joe put his hand in his pocket, and came back out with a diamond. He places it on the counter, and asks, "Is this enough?"
She takes the diamond, and places it beside the cash register. The second lady pulls out a case, and places it in front of him. They said, "Have a good time."
Joe takes the case, and walks away to find a slot. Eevee is still calling for help, and Joe will set her free. Of course it is so simple to do it in his way, but to act human he must do it there way. He heard the ladies behind him, gossiping about the diamond.
So he soon found an empty slot and sits down. Joe looks to the other people who are doing this, and watches of how to do it. Insert one, two, or three coins, and pull the handle to stop the spinning slots. Must get three pairs of a same thing, best is seven-seven-seven. You get fifty coins for if you get the three sevens.
To do this in there ways of playing the slot game, it will take a quite a long time. He doesn't want to stay here, trying to set Eevee from her prison. So Joe knows of what to do, and he picks a single coin.
He inserted it in it, and it begins spinning. He pulls the handle, and it slowly stops. Joe hid his face from other people's views, even the security camera. His eyes glows brightly, and soon the spinning ended and they all landed on sevens.
The machine dings several times, telling all around that he got a jackpot. But instead of fifty, with Joe's control. Three hundred coins came out, emptying the machine.
His eyes changes back to normal, and take the coins into the box. He got up, and gone to another machine. He did the same way three more times, emptying the slot machines. And now he holds in his little coins case, about twelve hundred coins.
He got up, and went gone to the counter. He puts the box filled with so many coins, and places it on the counter. He said, "It seems I earn the Eevee."
The ladies stares at him, surprise of how fast he got the coins. The second lady went to get the Eevee, and came back with it on a leash. She also brought its poke ball, and gave both of them to him. Joe takes them both, and went back to the entrance. Joe thought to himself, do people really play this just for fun?
He takes the Eevee outside of Celadon City, and stops near the trees. He bends down, and took the collar off. The Eevee looks up, and she asks in his mind, what are you going to do with me?
Joe said, "Well you are now free, free to choose of what you want to do…" He lifted her poke ball, and instead putting it in his bag. He destroys it, and it has become nothing but powder that is lost in the wind. He got back up, "Well Eevee, you're free to return to your home. Where ever it is…"
Eevee looks up at him, so surprise. She asks in his mind, why are you freeing me?
"Well Eevee, you ask for help. And I helped," Joe said. "I only had gone there to see who was spying on me. Couldn't find the person, but found an organization hiding behind a weird game."
So what will you do now? She asks as he listens.
"I will just have to ignore it, otherwise I will become there target. So now I will be going to journey on, capture more Pokemon. Make friends, and continue on," Joe said. He asks her, "Do you have anywhere to go?"
Eevee said to him as he listens, I have no where to go. I and my family were captured years ago, and I was the only one that been placed into that horrible place. I haven't seen my family again, I could hardly remember them. I was still young at the time, once was an egg that hatched.
Joe looks at her, surprise. An Eevee has seen her family only once, and soon separated. He kneels down, and said, "I'm sorry for your lost. So now you're alone in this world, how will you feel if you come with me?"
Eevee looks at him, happiness in her eyes. She leaps up, and landed on his shoulder. Gave a gentle lick, and said and he listens, I would like that very much.
"Well Eevee, welcome to the team," Joe said, and in his right hand. The powder flew back from the wind, and begins forming into an orb. The same poke ball from before has come back as brand new.
Eevee stares at it in surprise, and she asks as he listens with his mind. How did you do that?
"I'll just make it simple, I have magic," Joe said. Than all of a sudden, one of his six balls burst open.
Rhydon came out, while Joe landed on his butt from complete surprise. Eevee went behind, surprise and a bit terrified. She turns, and sees them. She came closer to them, and said, "Sorry about that, I needed to stretch myself. It was so cramp, even thou it is very comfy."
Joe slowly got up, and asks, "Rhydon, will you do that again later on?" She nodded, and than he said, "Well now I know who to send to the island…"
Rhydon notice Eevee, and so she bends down. She said, "Why hello there, you're really a cutie aren't you…" Eevee quickly hid behind Joe, still afraid from her.
Joe said, "Eevee, meet Rhydon. Rhydon, meet Eevee." He reaches down, and picks up Eevee and puts her on his shoulder. Rhydon come a little closer, looking at her with adoring eyes.
"Aw, you're so cute. I could just eat you up," Rhydon said, still looking at the little Pokemon. Eevee is still scared of her, so she tries to hide behind Joe's head.
Eevee asks Joe as he uses his mind to listen, how can she speak human?
Joe said, "Any Pokemon I capture gains the human speech. Along with strength, speed, and evolution and two more feet taller. If you have an evolution, you will evolve into it. Plus we will be linked through mind, like we can speak to each other through telepathy."
"He's right, you little cutie," Rhydon said, getting a bit closer.
How come I don't speak human? Eevee asks Joe. I'm your Pokemon, so why do I not have what you said?
"Well Eevee, you gain the abilities from the ball I used to capture you. Your ball was given to me, so it doesn't have what all the others I used did have. Your ball wasn't mine before I got it," Joe said.
So I must be in one of your poke balls to get these things, Eevee said. Where is one of your balls?
"I have the empty ones in my gym bag," Joe said, and Eevee jumps onto the gym bag. She tries to get in, trying to get at the ultra balls. Joe quickly said, "I can add the abilities to this poke ball, but I don't like to put it in a ball that was given to me by a workers of Team Rocket."
So he bends down, and opens the bag. Taking out an ultra ball, and holding it to her. He asks, "Would you like to switch from the poke ball to the ultra ball?" Eevee nodded, and touch the button. Eevee has gone into it, and the beeping ended.
He put her ball in the empty slot, and holds Rhydon's ball in his right hand. He got up, and looks at Rhydon. He said, "I think it will be you that will go to the island."
She asks, "Why me?"
"Like you have said before, you would come out of the ultra ball. I can't have the sudden surprise of you just popping out of the ball all the time. And going to the island, means you will meet friends of mine. Also be out of the ball, instead of being in it all the time," Joe said, and Rhydon understands.
She said good bye, and Joe said, "Make sure you ask a friend you already met, for a tour around the island." She nodded, and Joe teleported both her and the ball to the island.
Joe reaches down, and closes the gym bag. Picks it up, and got ready to go on. He still has the old poke ball, it is useless to him. So he picks it up with his left hand, and did the same thing from before. The ball turns to dust, and blows away in the wind.
So he reaches for Eevee's ball, but it burst open. Joe took the ball, and puts it in the empty slot. With Eevee out already, he and she are ready to go.
Eevee looks at her self; she is two more feet taller. So she about three feet tall, and she asks, "Why haven't I evolve?"
"Did you want to evolve?" Joe asks her.
"Well not really, but you said I might evolve," Eevee said.
"Well you have seven different evolutions. Each requires a certain thing or item, for an example. Fire stones will evolve you into a Flareon, and a water stones will evolve you into a Vaporeon. With a thunder stone, you will be a Jolteon. Two shards, with light shard you will be an Espeon and a dark shard you will be an Umbreon. Lastly the last two has to perform in Sinnoh, in Eterna Forest you will evolve into a Leafeon by touching some strange stone. On route two hundred and seventeen, in a frozen cavern with a strange stone you will evolve into a Glaceon just by touching it. How I know, I learns thing on my journey," Joe said. In truth, he learns a lot of things from the memory scans and from people talking to each other.
Eevee asks, "Oh, so what now?"
"Well I will need you to be in your ball," Joe said. "Because humans and other Pokemon will be surprise of you, and the human speech. I will let you and all the others out, when it is time for today's lunch."
"Alright, I trust you," she said, and Joe takes out the ball. He put her back in, and puts ball back in the slot. Now he stands ready to journey on. He suddenly senses something, and thought of teleporting to that location. So he looks in that direction, and slowly disappears.
In the morning, in the office room. Giovanni sat in his chair, with his Persian beside him. He presses on the keyboard for the computer, and an image came on. It is a scientist, and Giovanni asks, "Professor Nanba, what's your report on the item?"
"Sir, that item is quite wondrous. When you said you wanted a clone of Joe, just tale a look," he replied, and turns away. Two capsules with green color water, one holding tiny speck that once belong to Joe. While the other holds some kind of form in there. Nanba said, "The clone has already to take on form, and gain conscious already. I believe it will be ready tomorrow, it is just amazing. Our entire facility is also being powered up by that tiny speck. Incredible and all the equipment are even better than before."
"Anything else?" Giovanni asks.
"Well from your old reports of Mewtwo, I say this clone is more powerful than that Pokemon. Instead of a powerful Pokemon, you will have a powerful human instead. Just from that single speck of energy, a powerful clone is created. Imagine of having the entire thing, you could have a powerful army and take over the world in a matter of days," Nanba said, and begins laughing.
"Well that is good news," Giovanni said.
All of a sudden the screen shut off, causing Giovanni to miss it. Nanba's laboratory begins shaking. Nanba shouted, "What's going on?" And the capsule that holds Joe's clone shows a crack, and inside Joe grows bigger. His form is changing from a human into that of Joe's original form, but instead of a bright light it is mix with dark energy.
The capsule brakes into a million pieces, and the copy reverted back to the human form and sits down on the floor. He asks, "Who am I? What am I? Where am I?"
Nanba came closer, and said, "You are J-1, a human, and you are in my lab."
J-1 stands up, and saw everyone wearing clothing. At the thought, he gains clothing that is similar to the scientists. He puts his hands on his head, and begins shaking. He asks, "What are these things in my head?"
"It is probably your past memories," Nanba said, and he looks at his fellow scientists. He said, "Go take our young J-1 to the examination room. Help him calm down…" The others agreed, and went over to J-1.
J-1 said, "Who is Garico, Andracus, Albertis, Thomas, and Josephiroth? Why do I see so many destructions?" The scientists take him to the next room, and J-1 keeps asking of what is his memories are of.
Nanba sees him go, and turns towards the computer. He presses a button on the keyboard, and Giovanni came back on. He asks, "What has happened?"
"J-1 has awakened, and is taken to the examination room. To make him think he is in Team Rocket," Nanba said. "But he has asks the strangest things, that is going to be hard to think he is in Team Rocket."
"Just make sure he does," Giovanni said. "I want him to be ready tomorrow morning, for his first assignment." He went off the screen, and Nanba went to see J-1 and the other scientists. He didn't notice, but the tiny speck has grown a bit bigger than before.
J-1 lies on a board, with a contraption on his head. His eyes are shut, and the scientists look at the computer screen. Seeing strange images that they never seen before.
Soon Nanba came in, and asks, "Progress report?"
"Professor Nanba, take look at the screen," said one of them, and Nanba looks at it. He seems surprises, for these images are not of this world.
Images of destruction, images of peace. Flight, friends, and the usage of power. But one image stands there a lot longer, some kind of abyss with seven platforms. One big one in the middle, with six platforms around it. Six humans' stands on each six small ones, and each wore different armor. Only one of them concern J-1 most, the one name Josephiroth and seems to look just like him.
Nanba looks at the scientists, and said, "Do operation Mind switch. You know what to do…" They already know, there going to put in fake memories that make J-1 one think he belongs to Team Rocket.
Joe appears in a dark room, it is all messy. Broken light bulbs, pots shattered, and the bed is flipped over. The window isn't crack, and so he looks through it.
With surprise, he sees nothing but darkness. But with his eyes, he could see water Pokemon swimming in the dark. He wanders if he is in an underwater vessel. So he checks the memories that belongs to Ash, and learns it is not a submarine. A submarine doesn't hold these kinds of rooms, so a cruise ship. It suddenly came to him, this ship is once was the St. S. Anne. The sunken ship, and no doubt the rest of the rooms are flooded.
He checks the door, and sees that the holes are blocked. So no doubt of opening the door, this room will be flooded in seconds. The water will no doubt seep into his bag, and destroys the poke food.
So with his power, he created a barrier of light around himself. From the appearance outside, it looks like a human stands in a big bubble.
He walks to the door, and punch it. The door broke off the handles and crash into the next room and water begin flooding in. He suddenly realizes the easier way is to go outside, instead of journeying through this cruise. He turns around, and went to the wall with the window.
With another punch, the wall broke off. Joe walks out of the room, and soon went down. Going down very slowly, and Joe looks down. The ground is close to him, and the area is still dark.
Soon he landed on the ground, and a big roar came behind him. Joe quickly turns around, and sees a Gyarados is heading straight at him.
Joe jumps out of the way, and the Gyarados went pass him. It turns around, and headed straight at him once more. Joe is too fast, and dodges once more. This continues on for five more times, and Joe is getting tired of this. With his free hand, he points it at the fierce Pokemon.
Gyarados went straight at him once more, and came to a complete halt with one foot away from Joe. Joe shouted, "Enough with your foolish attacks!"
He heard of what Gyarados is saying in his mind, this is not James? Can't be a human if he could breathe underwater.
Joe realize from the deep memory that belongs to both Ash and Brock, and reading its mind. It seems James got himself a Magikarp, and the idiots hate it. They even try to eat him, such foolery. James kicks him in the water, and with anger it evolves into a Gyarados. It chases after them, not for its fierce personality. But to get even with them, especially James. Of course after doing Dragon Rage with the other Gyarados, it feels very personal when James kicks it. So all it wants is to give James a pay back.
So he said, "Gyarados, all you want is to have a battle with the one that caused you anger. The one name James…" It nodded, and so Joe went on. "If you come with me, you will have that day. But that is probably going to be for a long time, but I guarantee you will have the chance." From the memory he seen, Gyarados deserve it.
Gyarados said, and it sounded male. He said in Joe's mind, so if I go with you, I will have my chance? Joe nodded, and Gyarados said, than I will, but first you must beat me to earn my loyalty and power.
Joe said, "My Pokemon can't work underwater, but I can easily handle it. So let's begin," with his hand still holding Gyarados. He begins spinning his hand around and around, causing Gyarados to bang his head to the ground and the walls of the ship.
Joe lets go of the control, and Gyarados landed on the seafloor with a nasty headache. Joe quickly got out an ultra ball, and he throws it at the fallen atrocious Pokemon. He went in, and it slowly went still. Joe walks over to it, and picks it up with his free hand.
With Gyarados that wants to battle so much, and Joe will hardly go into a Pokemon battle. So probably sending him to the island would be the best choice, he could train with another tough Pokemon Tauros.
So he sent him out, and sees it change a bit. Gyarados has double in size, about forty-two feet long and height. Joe says to him, as he wanders how he became this way. Joe told him of what happens when he captures Pokemon. He also said, "Gyarados, I will be sending you to the island paradise. A place you can relax, until I bring James to you. If you want to train, just have to ask the other Pokemon who lives there."
Gyarados looks down at him, and asks, "Which way is it to the island?"
"The only way you can get there is through teleportation. Since it is a floating island in the sky," Joe said, and Gyarados looks at him surprise. So Joe said, "See you on the island soon." He raised the ball in his right hand, and it and the Pokemon disappears.
Joe decides to go up, and so he looks up. He looks surprise, for the light is far away from him. Joe wanders if he is about a thousand miles underwater. Probably more or less.
So going up there so slowly will be pointless, and so he decided to teleport to a new location. So he disappears away from the sunken ship…
Joe reappears near a town, with the barrier still around him. He dispelled it, and now he is free from the dark water. He looks down at the town, and sees a big tower on the other side of the town.
He begins hearing crying, sound is similar to a Pokemon. So he decided to go see who it is the one who is crying.
He walks through the forest, and soon came upon a Pokemon with a grey head. Sitting down, with a bone beside it. With its body the color is similar to Kangaskhan, and its claws on its head. Tears came out of its eyes, and it continues crying very loud. From Ash's memories, what Joe is seeing is a Cubone.
Joe walks a bit closer, and asks, "Something the matter?"
Cubone turns around quickly, and saw him. Quickly picks up the bone, and throws it at him. Joe dodges it, and asks, "Why did you do that? I was only asking…." He stopped, for he has been hit in the back of the head. Joe looks down, and sees the bone. He remembers that the Cubone said a word before throwing, it was bonemerang.
He picks it up, and walks up to the Cubone. Leans down, and gave back the bone. Joe said, "I see you want to be alone, all I just wanted to know is why you're crying…"
Cubone takes it, and said in Joe's mind. It sounded male, and it said, I was crying about what happen a week ago. My mother died, and so after I had no friends. They didn't care about me, calling me a crybaby. Even a trainer rejected me, for I'm not a good battler.
"So you've been alone for a quite awhile," Joe said. "I'm sorry for you; you had no friends and family. So you've been alone, timid you are and I understand. I've been alone before, of course I was never alone for long. Making friends in time, and I still have friends. So how about you come with me, and become a friend to my Pokemon."
Cubone is wandering about something, but Joe said, "If you choose to stay, I will understand. If you want time to think about the decision, than I will be on the other side of that town over there. Come see me, if you choose to come along. Don't come see me, and stay here in this forest." Joe got up, and walks off. He said, "Good-bye Cubone, have a good time."
Cubone watches him go, and wanders what to do. Go with Joe, and don't be alone. Or stay, and stay alone.
Joe has gone into the town, and gone into the Poke Mart. He bought more Pokemon food, and puts them in his gym bag. Joe learns the town he is in is called Lavender Town. Joe checks Ash's memories, and learns he came here to catch a ghost Pokemon. To help him to defeat a Psychic gym leader, but end up making his opponent laughing herself to loose.
He sees no point of going to the tower, for he has no reason to catch a ghost Pokemon. The only ghost Pokemon there is a Ghastly, Haunter, and Gengar. All they want to do is pranks and jokes, even to scare people.
So he decided to leave this town, and spend the day in the forest. So he walks away, heading north of this town.
He soon came to the edge of the town, and gone into the forest. As soon as he gone into the woods, he senses something to his left.
It is coming in fast, so Joe uses his left hand to capture the object. He looks at it, and recognizes it. It is the same bone that belongs to Cubone; he looks at a nearby tree. He said, "Come on out Cubone, I know your there."
Sure enough, Cubone came out from behind the tree. He came over, and Joe throws the bone to him. He caught it, and came closer to him. Cubone said that he decided to come along, it was either this or remain alone.
Joe said, "I would like to stop somewhere with a small clearing." He walks off, with Cubone walking beside him.
Soon they came upon a good small clearing, with no one in sight. Joe set down his bag, and looks at Cubone. He said, "I'm going to let out my Pokemon right now. Just don't be scared, for they're bigger than normal." Cubone nodded, and Joe picks each ball out of their slots. He throws them all in the air, all six.
Kangaskhan, Scyther, Arcanine, Ninetales, Eevee and Armaldo came out. As soon as they came out, they came over to meet Cubone. All except Arcanine, Ninetales, and Armaldo races over and jumps upon Joe. They kept him down, hugging and rubbing their heads against his head.
It seems Joe is occupied for the moment, and so Cubone looks up at the other three Pokemon. Kangaskhan, Eevee, and Scyther said hello to him as he said hello back. Cubone asks them of why those three just jumps on Joe without warning.
They explain to him that they're his children, hatched from Pokemon eggs he hatched. Cubone looks at them in surprise, those Pokemon are still babies? They're all bigger than Cubone, even Joe himself.
He heard Joe saying, "Please get off me, Arcanine, Armaldo, and Ninetales. I need to get up…" They got off him, and Joe sat up. He said, "All of you meet Cubone. Cubone, meet my Pokemon."
The other three came over to Cubone, and said hello to him. Joe quickly said, "All of you have fun or relax, while I get your dinners ready." So he got up, and took the gym bag away from them. Leaving Cubone with the other six Pokemon to talk and relax and play.
Joe got out three plates already, and pulls out the Pokemon food. With seven plates of Pokemon food ready, he calls over to them, "Dinner is ready." Soon they all came over, and Joe takes his gym bag outs it beside a tree. He lies down, and places his head on the bag. Looking up at the sky, while the others are enjoying there dinners.
Since Cubone and Eevee are new, they ask why Joe is not eating. They explain that Joe doesn't require any food; he could live without food and sleep. They're quite surprise of this, and wander why he doesn't need food and sleep. The others don't know why, and they sometimes wander why as well.
As soon as they finished their plates, they each got up and came over to Joe. Without knowing, their plates slowly disappear.
They came to him, as he sat up. Joe said, "I have to make a decision, but don't know which. Remember I can only carry six Pokemon, and we have here is seven. Cubone is coming along with us, so I have to make a decision between two Pokemon. So Kangaskhan, Scyther, which of you two would like to go to the island paradise?"
Kangaskhan and Scyther look at each other, and wander which one to go. Than Scyther said, "I would like to go, since I think Ethan needs time away from me to remember who he is." The other Pokemon looks at Scyther, and wander who Ethan is.
Joe said, "For the last time, I'm not Ethan." He raised her ball in the air with his right hand.
"You're just kidding yourself, Ethan," Scyther said, she begins laughing.
"Scyther, do you want proof? Because the proof is the difference of you right now. Your size, strength, speed, and the human speech," Joe said, irritated.
"It is because of you loving me," Scyther said.
This caused Joe to be angrier, he said while trying to say it calmly. The ball in his right hand drops, and he said, "You obviously need much more proof, watch…" He got up, and walks away from them.
He faces them all, and he summons wings. He floated in the air, and slowly his form begins changing. He grew bigger, and his body became clearer. His entire body is no longer human, but his body glows brightly. He has wings that have no scales or feathers, his entire body is transparent. He no longer has a face, and no skin.
The Pokemon stares at him in surprise, and slowly Joe changes back to the human form he once was. He looks at Scyther, and said, "That was my true form; I hope that is proof for you to understand."
Seven of them look at him, surprise and a bit scared. From seeing their faces, Joe said, "Sorry of scaring you all, it seems I need to control my anger." He walks over to them, and picks up Scyther's ball. He looks at Scyther, and said, "Well Scyther, it is time for you to go to the island. Please ask anyone for a tour there, alright and good-bye." Scyther didn't say anything; she just stands there looking at him in surprise. She disappears, along with the ball as well. He looks at the others, and sees that they're still scared of him a bit.
He said, "I guess you six have some fun or relax. I'm just going a little farther away." He thinks it is best to have them relax for a while, and he swears to himself that he will never turn into his true form to show anyone proof that he isn't even human. He walks off into the forest, leaving the six watching him go.
They look at each other, and wander why he transformed. And they wander why he just walks away from them… Kangaskhan said, "I think we hurt his feelings, showing him of how scared we were to him."
"Than we should go see him right now, to tell him we're sorry of being scared of him," Eevee said, and at that Arcanine, Armaldo, and Ninetales runs off. Cubone got on Eevee, and she runs after them. Kangaskhan picks up Joe's gym bag, and places it in the pouch beside her baby. With that, she came after them.
As Joe walks on, he started to hear noises behind him. So he turns around, and knows it is coming towards him. Soon the same three came out from behind the bushes. They jump onto him, pushing him to the ground. They kept saying that they're sorry of hurting his feelings of being scared of him. Joe explains that they didn't hurt his feelings; in his mind he thought I don't have feelings at all.
Soon the rest came into view, and jumps on him as well. Getting between the three, and only Kangaskhan stands there watching them.
Joe asks, "Alright could let me up please?" His Pokemon got off him, and Joe got up. He saw the bag in Kangaskhans pouch, so he walks over. Took his gym bag out, and places it on the ground. He opens it, and takes out an ultra ball.
He calls to Cubone, "Cubone, it is time for you to join my team. You see, you don't have what they all have. To gain it, you must be caught by me. After that, you gain human speech, speed, strength, taller, and evolution. You will become a Marowak after this, you understand?" Cubone nodded, and jumps up and press the button with his bone club.
He gone in, and soon it stops beeping. He lets him out, and he now stands about five feet tall. He looks at Joe, and sees that their almost the same height except Joe is still one foot taller. His bone club is bigger, and his skull helmet is now a part of his head.
Joe asks, "How do you feel?"
"I-I feel great actually," Marowak said.
Joe looks up at the sky, and sees it is time for sleep. So he said, "I believe now it is time for everyone to go to sleep." So he picks up his gym bag, and places it against a tree. He put his back on the ground and his head on the gym bag. He looks up at the sky, as it soon came darker.
Arcanine rested on his left and Ninetales on his right. Armaldo came on top of him, along with Eevee as they rested on top of him. Marowak came beside Arcanine, and so did Kangaskhan as they all gone to sleep. Leaving Joe awake, as he watches the sky.
