So, ever heard of Pokémon Insurgence? One of the best fan games out there, but DEAR ARCEUS the difficulty of that game is fierce.
Do you know what pokemon I don't like? Feraligatr. Why? It's so fucking tall. Why is it Feraligatr is seven foot seven and Nidoking is only four foot seven? For a pokemon that has KING in its name, why is it so small? It bothers me so much.
Like always, nothing much happens in this chapter.

Pokémon isn't mine, otherwise Nidoking would way taller.

Anyway...

Sweet Arceus, I am sore.

The next morning, I woke up in an empty bed and it felt like my whole body was numb.

"Looks like Terra has work, and Hiro must have had something to do as well." I said, doing my best to sit up in the bed. "Oh man, I need a shower."

But at the same time, I didn't want to leave the bed.

My stomach then growled.

Hashtag TheStruggle.

Using literally all of my energy, I got out of the bed and walked to the bathroom, where I spent around fifteen minutes in there washing my body and just relaxing.

I don't think I will ever forget what happened last night for the rest of my life.

"Okay time to get out."

That said, I felt a lot better, but walking might be a bit of a chore today.

After getting dressed, putting on some dye, and putting on my contacts, I grabbed the board that Leo gave me and left the house.

Now what to do today…

That thought stuck to my mind, and I ended up riding around on the board for about fifteen minutes. Part of me wanted to go to the stand, but part of me also wanted to stay away from the stand because Rotor might be there.

Though by instinct, I was already heading in that direction.

Well, yolo

…

I've been saying that a lot lately, I wonder why?

The ride to the stand didn't take long at all, and just when it appeared in my view, I slowed down when I saw who was there.

Zane was there as usual, but there two Nidokings there, and He was there.

Rotor.

"Well," I said to myself. "It was gonna happen eventually; at least I don't need to tell him it's me just yet."

That said, I got off the board and began walking the rest of the way.

What I was focused on now was the fact that there were two Michaels sitting at the stand. The blue one looked really unamused, and the purple one seemed evilly happy about something.

It looks like they were arguing about something though.

"Aww, what's wrong Michael?" The purple dino asked. "Upset because you haven't gotten any in so long?"

Oh dear, this guy must have a death wish if he's messing with Mike like that.

He then looked at me.

"It looks like your little fuckboy is here."

"Sorry buddy." I quickly replied and sat down. "But you've got the wrong Zangoose."

That was a lie.

"Here you are Tandor." Zane said and handed me a donut.

I smiled.

Zane is the best dad ever.

"So this is Tandor?" The Samurott beside me said. "Good to finally meet you."

He extended his hand for me to take, and I just stared at it.

I then ignored it and went back to eating my donut.

"Okay?" Rotor muttered, obviously disappointed.

"He and Aladar are pretty close." Zane pointed out. "He knows everything that happened, and he doesn't really like a selected few of us."

Namely Leaf and Kicks, but I'll fake a few others as well.

"I see…" Rotor replied, a sigh following.

I then decided to continue listening to Michael and the other Nidoking.

"How are your arms feeling Mike?" The shiny asked. "It must be pretty difficult to jerk off right now."

"My arms might be injured, but I can still use them to beat the crap out of you if you don't shut up." Mike replied coldly.

Michael has really had a rough couple of days. Both of his arms were wrapped in bandages.

"I really wish that I could be at work right now."

"You need time to rest Michael." Zane stated. "You wont heal up if you continue to stress yourself out."

"It's really hard to relax when this fuck is here." Mike replied. "Out of all the people on the planet, this guy had to be my brother."

Wait, what?

Michael has a brother, and he's a shiny?

"Tandor?"

That was Zane

"Do you think that you can stick around for a little bit to help me move my supplies?" He asked. "I'm gonna be moving my stuff to the new spot in town, and would appreciate your help."

He didn't even need to ask.

"Sure." I replied, pretending to be bored. "I don't really have anything better to do."

I winked right after I said that.

I will say though, Zane has the most awesome smile in the world.

"Hey uh, Tandor?"

That was Rotor.

Wonder what he wants.

"Yes?" I replied, not looking at him.

"Do you think you can take me to Aladar later?" He asked. "I really want to see him."

"Good luck with that." Michael piped up. "He won't even let me see him."

I just shook my head.

Rotor looked very disappointed.

"Aladar will come when he feels the time is right." The dragon stated.

He then chuckled.

"But has come to see a few of us already."

"What?!" Both Michael and Rotor nearly shouted.

I was so tempted to start laughing.

"Who has he come to?" Michael asked.

"Me, Kicks, Leo, Leaf, Terrakion, Cloudbreaker." Zane listed. "Hell, he even let Hiro in on his secret."

Hiro was really a mistake though.

"I told you I wasn't lying."

I looked behind me and saw the Rhydon I met a few days ago.

"I didn't lie about anything I said Michael." He said and took the seat to my left. "I met him in town and the two of us talked for a bit before we got you to the hospital. I changed for the better because of him."

"Shut up Crash." Mike replied.

So Crash is his name.

"Wow." The purple Nidoking said. "Even Crash got to see him."

"You shut up too Terry." The blue Nidoking replied.

And his brother is named Terry.

"You know, I wouldn't be surprised if I even meet him before you." Terry continued.

"I will fucking kill you." He replied.

Well, I guess that Michael and his brother don't get along.

"Wait 'til Dad finds out that you're here."

Michael then slammed his fists against the counter.

Not really the best idea he had, seeing how he flinched due to the recoil.

"Why the hell does it even matter?" The blue Nidoking replied. "You guy already hate me; why the hell would he want to know?"

"We just want to make your life a living Hell." Terry stated. "And it would be a shame if we were to come across this little Zangoose of yours, and something were to happen to him."

Wait, what?

Uh oh, Michael looked pissed.

Well, more pissed than he already was at least.

"Now you listen here," He said, not happy in the slightest. "I've taken loads of crap from you in my life, but if you even do as much as scratch my little Aladar, then I will fucking murder you."

"And let's not forget that's my son you're talking about." Zane added. "If you do something to him, then Michael won't be the only person that you'll have to deal with."

He does have a point; a lot of people would probably be pissed if something happened to me.

Well, at least I know that I'm in good hands.

"Tandor."

I looked at Zane and he tossed me a set of keys.

"Go open up my new shop." He said. "I'll be down there in a bit."

"Alright." I said and got out of the seat. "See ya in a bit."

That said, I hopped onto my board and rode away from the stand.

Town was pretty busy today, seeing how Christmas was in a few weeks.

You know, I had almost forgotten about that.

My thoughts were interrupted when I saw Hiro walking about.

"Hiro!" I called out, getting his attention.

I then jumped off of my board and approached him.

"Oh, hey Al." The serpent said with a smile. "How's the rear end feeling this morning?"

I crossed my arms and a light blush appeared on my face.

I'm really glad that's the first thing he thought of when he saw me. (Sarcasm)

"Better than it did earlier." I replied. "What brings you into town?"

"I was actually bringing my boss to come see ya." He replied. "He should be coming around that corner any minute now."

Huh.

I looked behind me and saw probably the scariest creature I have ever laid eyes upon.

He was pretty much a red Charizard skeleton wearing a pirate outfit. His eyes were small yellow flames, his wings were just an outline of bones, and he had a mega-stone on his right boot.

Our eyes met, and I froze.

"This is the delta pokemon that you were talking about Hiro?" The Charizard asked as he approached us.

"Yes sir captain Hrist." Hiro replied. "He is a grass-normal Zangoose who is hiding his green, now orange marks with dye. His name Aladar."

Hirst stared at me for a few seconds, then a smile appeared on his face and he pulled me into a hug.

"He'd be the most adorable thing me eyes have ever layed upon!" The dragon said, making me blush even more. "So yer really a Delta species pokemon?"

Well, I'm not sure what exactly a Delta species is.

"What exactly is a Delta species?" I asked.

"A Delta species is a pokemon who was tested on to have their type changed." Hiro answered. "This also results in their appearance being changed drastically."

Well, considering I was created by people, and I also learned that my blood as enhanced by a Sacred Pine that someone must have slipped into the blood sample that created me, resulting in my type change.

I learned that from the Gogoat tribe I met a few years ago, who were experts on different types of plants.

I guess I am a Delta species pokemon.

"Yer really lucky kid." Hrist said and stroked the back of my head. "Most Delta species pokemon don't turn out as pretty as you did."

Well, judging by how Hrist looks…

But then again, it is kinda nice to know that there are more people out there like me.

"Hey guys, I'm heading over to my dad's new shop location, wanna come?" I asked.

They both nodded, and the three of us made our way to the town square where the location of the new spot was.

Oh yeah, the three of us also got plenty of strange looks on our way there. A Zangoose and a Seviper were talking to each other, and then there was Hrist…

Need I say more?

"Hey Hrist, what is your type matchup?" I asked as I opened the empty shop. "You look a ghost-type."

"Ah am a ghost-dragon." He stated.

A ghost-dragon, man is he resistant to a lot of things.

"Also, you can mega-evolve?" I asked.

"Yup." The ghost said with a smile. "I would show you, but that would plunge the city into darkness in the process, so it might have to wait until later."

I'm guessing that his ability is Noctum, which brings out a New Moon and powers up ghost and dark-type moves, and also results in a temporary nighttime.

A couple of cars then pulled up in front of the shop.

"My parents are here." I stated. "They're gonna start setting up, do you mind helping us Hrist?"

"Anything for you mah little swabbie." He replied.

Well, he may be scary, but his personality was pure gold.

The three of us opened the door to greet my friends that had just showed up, just for them to freeze at the sight of Hrist.

"Hey guys." I said with a smile. "Meet my new friend Hrist."

xXOOOOOXx

The next few hours were spent at Zane's Mini Cafe, and everyone was enjoying themselves.

Even my Team Magma friends were there, and they seemed to love eating pizza and pokepuffs, And surprising Hiro and Nox were getting along.

"Business is booming." I said to my dragon dad. "You should really think about hiring employees and ordering some new ovens and coffee makers."

"I probably will do that when I get home." He said and handed me a dessert pizza slice. "Now eat this pizza like you promised."

I laughed and began eating; it was very good, but I don't think I've had anything that wasn't good made by my dad.

Well, besides the spice pokepuffs that is.

"So Tandor," Darrius said, grinning. "Where's that Michael guy that you like so much?"

I rolled my eyes and finished the bite I was on.

"He's not here at the moment." I said. "He's probably busy right now."

But I wouldn't be surprised if he was fighting with his family at the moment, and now that I think of it, Michael told me that he didn't have a family.

I guess this is why.

"And what about that Delta Charizard guy?" The Tanscure asked. "He and Slasher are getting along way too well."

"Well, they're both pirates, and they both love me to death." I replied with a chuckle. "What more of a connection do they need to be best friends than that?"

The bell on the door sounded, and I turned around to see that Michael had arrived, and was greeted by Zap and Flare.

"That's him." I said to the Nuclear pokemon.

"That's the guy that Cuatro reminded you of?" He asked and I nodded. "Damn."

Oh, I really want to tell him that it's me.

"You have a bunch of interesting friends." He stated. "And what was that new move that you learned?"

"Thousand Arrows." I said. "It's my new Rock Tomb."

And man did I love it.

"So when are you going to tell him?" He then asked.

"I don't know." I replied. "I really want to tell him, but I just don't know when the right time would be to do that. I still love him, but I'm just kinda scared."

The Tanscure then smiled.

"I'm pretty sure he already knows." He stated

Huh?

"How would he know that I'm Aladar?" I asked.

"You told him." He replied.

"No I didn't." I replied back.

"Yes you did." He said. "I watched you."

What?

"When did that happen?" I asked.

"A few seconds ago." The nuclear pokemon replied. "Michael just walked behind behind you when you said you still loved him. He stopped for a second, then you said, 'How would he know that I'm Aladar?', now he's standing behind you with a shocked look on his face."

Wait, what?!

I quickly turned my head and saw that no one was there, and Darrius was laughing his ass off.

"You fuck!" I said to the laughing wolf. "Are you trying to give me a heart attack?!"

That was not funny at all.

I will shed on him while he sleeps.

"Oh yeah, Michael is really behind you now." Darrius stated.

"No he's not." I replied. "And he does not know that I am Aladar."

"He does now." He replied and turned away to order something.

What an ass.

"Aladar?"

I froze.

"Aladar, is that really you?"

Oh great...

Remember when I mentioned Pokémon Insurgence? That's the game where Delta Species pokemon come from. You get to choose from three Kanto starters, but they're all Delta pokemon. A ghost-dragon Charmander, a dark-fighting Squirtle, and a fairy-psychic Bulbasaur.
I'm sure you guys can guess which one I picked.
