Lorcan follows Professor Sycamore to his desk.
Professor Sycamore: "Many thanks for coming all the way from Vaniville Town!"
Lorcan: "It's no problem and you are…?"
Professor Sycamore: "I'm Professor Sycamore! It's a pleasure to finally meet you! How is your Pokémon journey going so far?"
Lorcan: "It's good."
Professor Sycamore: "Have you met many different Pokémon? Fantastic! Let me have a quick look at your Pokédex and see!"
Lorcan gives Professor Sycamore his Pokédex.
Professor Sycamore: "Hmm… So you've seen 34 kinds of Pokémon in Central Kalos, then. Oh ho! The pages are getting filled in. It's starting to look good!
Lorcan: "Whoa!"
Professor Sycamore: "Well now, you DO have a certain je ne sais quoi! I have a good feeling about you!"
Lorcan: "Really?"
Professor Sycamore: "Oh yes. At first, I was thinking of choosing only one child from a town when I was deciding who to give a Pokémon to. In Vaniville Town, it was going to be the child of a Veteran Trainer I know."
Lorcan: "Wait… so that means...?"
Professor: "About then, I learned that the Rhyhorn racer Grace and her son were moving here. Here in the Kalos region, you're far away from everything you used to know…"
Lorcan: "Yeah. I had to move and there's nothing good for me."
Professor Sycamore: "That really hit me right here…"
Lorcan: "Ah yeah."
Professor Sycamore: "Then it hit me-I should give you a Pokémon and have you travel around Kalos!"
Lorcan: "Really… Okay I'll give them a try."
Shauna: "Hi, Professor! It's Shauna! "
Serena: "Sorry to have kept you waiting."
Professor Sycamore: "Fantastic! Now, let's all have a Pokémon battle! Your opponent shall be me!"
Lorcan: "A Battle?"
Shauna: "A Pokémon battle in the lab?"
Serena: "A Pokémon battle, huh? Sounds good. Let's get started."
Lorcan discovers he has a brilliant opportunity to battle against Professor Sycamore.
Professor Sycamore: "So Lorcan? Shall we start the battle?"
Lorcan: "Okay. Yes!"
Professor Sycamore: "Just so you know, I'm not that tough!"
Lorcan and Professor Sycamore begins the battle. Professor Sycamore brings out Bulbasaur, Lorcan brings out Froakie. Bulbasaur resembles a small, squatting dinosaur that walks on four legs, but bears three claws on each of its feet and has no tail. It also has large, red eyes and very sharp teeth. Its skin is a light, turquoise color with dark, green spots. It has three claws on all four of its legs.
Lorcan: "Use water pulse!"
Froakie use Water Pulse to blast Bulbasaur.
Professor Sycamore: "Use Growl!"
Bulbasaur growl as Froakie to fail its attack.
Lorcan: "Use Water Pulse again!"
Froakie use Water Pulse again and Bulbasaur fainted.
Lorcan: "Great job, Froakie!"
Professor Sycamore: "Well, let's see if your Frogadier will match with my water type!"
Professor Sycamore brings out Squirtle. Squirtle is a small, light-blue Pokémon with an appearance similar to that of a turtle. With its aerodynamic shape and grooved surface, Squirtle's shell helps it wade through the water very quickly. It also offers protection in battle. Like turtles, Squirtle has a shell that covers its body with holes that allow its limbs, tail, and head to be exposed. Unlike a turtle, Squirtle is ordinarily bipedal.
Lorcan sent Froakie back and brings out Pikachu.
Professor Sycamore: "Use Water Gun!"
Squirtle use Water Gun to blast Pikachu.
Lorcan: "Well, Pikachu, use Thunder Shock!"
Pikachu use Thunder Shock and hit Squirtle.
Professor Sycamore: "Well, use Water Gun again!"
Squirtle blast Pikachu again with Water Gun.
Lorcan: "Pikachu! Use Thunder Shock!"
Pikachu hits Squirtle with Thunder Shock and Squirtle fainted.
Lorcan: "Yes!"
Lorcan sent Pikachu back into its Poké ball and bring back Froakie. Professor Sycamore brings out Charmander. Charmander is a small, bipedal, dinosaur-like Pokémon. Most of its body is colored orange, while its underbelly is a pale light-yellow color. Charmander, like its evolved forms, has a flame that constantly burns on the end of its tail.
Lorcan: "Whoa! A Charmander!"
Professor Sycamore: "Yeah."
Lorcan Darcy: "Use Water Pulse!"
Froakie attack Charmander with Water Pulse. Charmander fainted after one attack. Lorcan glad he won the battle.
Professor Sycamore: "Ha ha! You're too much for me! You're really something, aren't you?"
Lorcan: "Froakie, I am proud of you."
Froakie smiles but then it is surrounded by a blue light.
Serena: "Froakie's evolving!"
Lorcan: "Evolving? To what?"
Froakie evolving into a Pokémon that resembles a frog. It has deep blue- and cyan-colored skin. Its eyes are yellow with cyan eyelids, its nostrils are white and slightly protuberant, and it has a flowing scarf-like collar of frothy white bubbles around its neck. Its underbelly is mainly cyan in color, while its top half is deep blue.
Lorcan: "Wha…? I don't believe it! Hi, Frogadier!"
Professor Sycamore: "I think I've figured it out!"
Shauna: "Figured what out?"
Lorcan: "What is it?"
Professor Sycamore: "Lorcan! You are an interesting Pokémon Trainer indeed! It'd be fantastic if you took another Pokémon with you! Here! Pick one!"
He brings out Bulbasaur, Squirtle and Charmander to Lorcan to pick. He decides to pick Charmander.
Professor Sycamore: "You picked Charmander, then! I see. That's simply wonderful!"
Lorcan: "Yeah, I thought I should pick it."
Professor Sycamore: "That's good. Would you like to give it a nickname?"
Lorcan: "Yes. I'll call him, Pyro."
Professor Sycamore: "So, you've decided its name will be Pyro?"
Lorcan: "Yes."
Professor Sycamore: "Since you chose Charmander, I'll give you this Mega Stone."
Lorcan has obtained a mega stone called a Charizardite X. He put it in his bag.
Professor Sycamore: "Come now, you two. Pick your Pokémon."
Shauna: "I don't know which one to pick! It's so difficult!"
Serena: "You'll be together for a long time, so just take your time."
Professor Sycamore: "Well, I've got a feeling everyone else will show up soon."
Lorcan: "Yeah, the other two should've be here by now! Oh, it's at times like this I miss Kino. Don't ask."
Professor Sycamore: "Okay."
Just then, Tierno and Trevor arrived.
Tierno: "Hi, Professor Sycamore."
Trevor: "What's this? Everyone is already here?"
Lorcan: "That's right and we've been waiting for you!
Professor Sycamore: "See. Wonderful! Everyone's all here! So now that we're all here, I'd like to say a few words. Be the best Trainer you can be! At the same time, remember to have fun traveling with your Pokémon! Also, I want to ask for your help in solving the Kalos region's biggest Pokémon mystery: the secret and potential of Mega Evolution, a new kind of Evolution that occurs in battle! That's why I gave you that Mega Stone just now. It's an important clue!"
Trevor: "Mega Evolution? What should we do about the Pokédex?"
Professor Sycamore: "Trevor, my lad, if that's what "best Trainer" means to you, then I want you to go out there and complete that Pokédex!"
Shauna: "Mega Evolution sounds really interesting! "
Professor Sycamore: "If you're investigating Mega Evolution, why don't you check out Camphrier Town? That town has a lot of history-you might find a hint there! Now listen. If you visit many different places to complete the Pokédex, you will probably see Pokémon with many ways of living and meet people with many ways of thinking. First, accept the ways of living and thinking that sometimes conflict with your own. And think about what's really imporant-this will truly broaden your horizons."
Serena: "I feel that being different from others makes me special. Mastering Mega Evolution will definitely set me apart from other Trainers!"
Lorcan walked back down to the lobby, he sees Sina talking to a pale man, with blue eyes and pointed red hair connected to his beard. He wears a black suit, lined in red and black dress shoes. He also wears a pair of black fingerless gloves, as well as having a Mega Ring on his left middle finger.
Lysandre: "So, I will be able to meet them soon, then.
Sina: "Yes."
Lysandre: "The children chosen by the professor… I wonder what potential they have."
Sina: "And here's one of them now… That's Lorcan. Lorcan, come here a sec!"
Lorcan goes to the counter where Sina's at.
Lysandre: "Oh! You received a Pokédex from the professor then… How wonderful! That is a wonderful thing, indeed. You are one of the chosen ones. I am Lysandre. I've tried to learn as much about Pokémon as I can to help build a brighter future. Professor Sycamore has taught me so much. Oh, I see you have a Holo Caster! Knowledge is power, after all. Put it to good use. Now listen! It is vital that this world become a better place. And the people and Pokémon chosen to make the world better must work tirelessly to achieve this goal. Well, I'll be off. Please give Professor Sycamore my best. My desire…it is for a more beautiful world!"
Sina: "Still…I wonder what kind of beautiful world Lysandre desires...In this great big Kalos region, there are many different Pokémon. I hope getting a Pokédex gives you a chance to learn about them."
Lorcan: "I hope so too."
Lorcan left the lab and decides to look around the city before heading to the next route. Just then Shining Armor sees Lorcan.
Shining Armor: "Lorcan!"
Lorcan Darcy: "Shining Armor? Oh great, did your sister came here to capture and kill me again?"
Lorcan begin to walk.
Shining Armor: "Wait! You can't leave just yet!"
Lorcan: "Why?"
Shining Armor: "I have a something for you."
Shining Armor shows Lorcan the rainbow rose. The rose gives Lorcan a text on his phone saying…
Lorcan: "I am here? Shining Armor… Someday I'll get to see Emily again."
Both Lorcan and Shining Armor smile and formed an alliance that they will find and see Emily so Lorcan can able to say goodbye to her for one last time.
Lorcan and Shining Armor will form an alliance in the fifth part of the chapter, The fifth part will be based on by Pokémon XY anime series episode 19, A Conspiracy to Conquer! Lorcan will tell Shauna the truth during the fireworks about his past deeds. Thanks for reading guys and I hope you'll enjoy the next chapter and Lorcan's Regeneration will be coming in the ending of Act 3. See ya.
