Chapter 11 – The Three Starter Pokémon part 2

Yo, I am back. I know that I have just finished writing my last chapter a few days ago but I am trying to update faster and more consistently. I have no real updates for anything about my story except for the Eevee poll and wow did it fill up overnight.

Here's the current results:

Sylveon – 35

Umbreon – 30

Espeon – 23

Ability to shift Eeveelution – 12

Leafeon – 8

Glaceon – 8

Jolteon – 4

No Evolution – 2

Flareon – 2

Vaporeon – 0

Like I said, it filled up overnight. A reminder that the poll closes on Valentine's Day. Keep voting. Wait, I just remembered the fossil Pokémon. I didn't actually keep track of the how many people wanted which fossil but I do know that they only voted for the Jaw and Sail fossil (Tyrunt and Amaura). I am giving it until the Dragonite episode till I decide.

Key:

"Talking"

"Pokespeech/Pokespeech while in flashback"

'Thinking/aura speech/ telepathy'

"Pokedex/X-watch speech"

Chapter Begin

Ash than began remembering how he caught his Torchic.

Flashback

*Random path; a week ago, 12 AM*

After finding the path out of the Hidden Village and getting back on the main trail, Ash and his Pokémon had been traveling for a few days when he came across an unusual sight. On a rock, a little bit off the path, was an orange chick like Pokémon. It looked like it was waiting for someone to find it. Ash activated the pokedex app on his watch.

Torchic, the chick Pokémon. Torchic has a place inside its body where it keeps its flames. Give it a hug-it will be glowing with warmth. This Pokémon is covered all over by a fluffy coat of down. This Pokémon is male. No other information available.

"What's a Torchic doing out here?" Ash asked no one specific. Suddenly Gybolg popped out of her ball and ran out towards the Torchic. "Gybolg, what are you doing?" Ash asked. Gybolg ignored Ash and began talking to the chick Pokémon, who looked happy at seeing the water type. "Oh yeah, Gybolg was friends with the two other starter Pokémon when they were poached," Ash realized as he waited for them to finish their conversation.

Five minutes later, Torchic hopped down from the rock structure and walked towards Ash. He looked up towards him and timidly spoke, "Thank you for looking after my friend. Unfortunately, while I would like to join my friend, I can't join because I have a trainer." Ash looked around the clearing and noticed one specific fact. "Where is you trainer?" He asked. "He released me out of my pokéball here after I lost a battle to a grass type and told me to stay here until he comes back," Torchic explained.

"Was there anything different about when he let you out?" Ash asked. Torchic looked thoughtful as he thought about when he was released. "Yes, there was a blue light that hit me when I was released," He said. "Then you can join us. When you got hit by the blue light, your trainer officially released you from his ownership so if you want to join us you can." Ash said. Torchic took a moment to process what was said before he started jumping around Gybolg cheering.

Flashback

Torchic was caught shortly after he calmed down. Torchic's pokedex page was updated revealing that he had the ability Speed Boost. He knew the moves tackle, ember, sand attack, peck, and had the egg move(s) fire pledge and night slash. They had traveled until they found a Pokémon center where they decided to stay the night as it was looking like it was ready to storm.

In the Pokémon center, they also found Torchic's old trainer, Damian, who was bragging about having a lot of Pokémon and about how he had a left a weak Pokémon out there and how he was probably still out waiting on the rock. As much as Ash wanted to hurt the arrogant trainer, he knew it would do him no good and could possibly get him in trouble so he recorded the Damian's confession the moment he heard about the Pokémon still staying in the rain. Ash gave the recording to the Nurse Joy, to turn into the police. A few days later, Ash and co. encountered a group of Squirtle who liked to play pranks on people and was where Ash got his last starter Pokémon (for now).

Flashback

*Route unknown (I don't think it was ever mentioned in cannon); 4 days later, 8 AM*

Ash, Gybolg, Raijin, Gybolg, Black, and Torchic (I have no idea what to name him) were walking down a path that was near a small town when the ground underneath them caved in causing them to fall down in a pit. "Black, remind me to never mention this to Lucario-sensei," Ash said rubbing his sore head. "Right," Black said obviously fearing his reaction. "Kukuku, that was hilarious!" A voice said from the top of the hole.

Everyone turned their heads towards the top and saw a group of five Squirtle wearing sun glasses, four circle glasses and one pointy pair. "You losers fell in our trap." The Squirtle with the pointy glasses said as he began ranting about how awesome he and his group, The Squirtle Squad, and how they continued to prank a bunch of people. As he continued to talk and talk and talk, Ash steadily got more annoyed with him until he couldn't take it anymore and jumped out of the hole, startling the turtle Pokémon. "Taste my FIST OF LOVE!" He shouted as he punched the lead Squirtle sending him flying into a nearby tree, scaring the rest of the Squirtle Squad and some of his own Pokémon.

(I interrupt your irregularly scheduled story because what happens is too horrible to be shown on TV. Sorry, not sorry but I don't want you being scarred for life because of the following actions.)

By the time Ash finished disciplined, the Squirtle Squad were in a pile of bruised and beaten of, well, Squirtle while all of Ash's Pokémon were huddled in a circle shaking in there metaphorical boots. "We surrender!" The Squirtle Squad yelled desperately.

Flashback ends

They surrendered like they said and gave themselves up to the Officer Jenny of the town who put them on community service as firefighters. The exception was the lead Squirtle who joined Ash's team to learn more about the human who intrigued him. When Ash caught Squirtle, he began to tor-train his newest Pokémon but he has not have a lot of time to train them. It was during the training that Ash learned that Squirtle has the ability to store a lot of items in his shell and not be affected the items at all.

Speaking of training, Ash chuckled menacingly at the thought of what he was going to put his new Pokémon through to get them up to snuff with the rest of them. The three new Pokémon, Raijin, and Black suddenly felt a chill go up their spine. Black looked at Ash fearfully as he could have sworn that he saw Sir Aaron's Lucario chuckling with him.

Chapter End

Pokémon Encountered: Torchic (Chick Pokémon) and Squirtle (Tiny Turtle Pokémon)

Squirtle's pokedex entry – Squirtle's shell is not merely used for protection. The shell's rounded shape and the grooves on its surface help minimize resistance in water, enabling this Pokémon to swim at high speeds. This Pokémon is male and has the ability Torrent. It knows the moves tackle, rapid spin, bubble, water gun, bite, and has the egg move(s) Aura Sphere and water pledge.

Yeah, this chapter was much shorter than planned but it is just how it happened. The fossil Pokémon is definitely going to be a Tyrunt and possibly an Amaura. After thinking about it, I have decided to get rid of the levels. I know I put down a several paragraphs on how the level system works in this universe but I don't care. It is my story, so my rules. I really have nothing to say for this. See ya in the next chapter.
