Congratulations to jxz for being the only person to guess that I was referring to Discord Whooves when I talked about the black bowtie. If you haven't read ask discorded Whooves I half recommend it because of its art style and humor, but also I won't recommend it because it made me depressed. Anyway, let the story continue.

Chapter 25

I had a pretty interesting day, I found out that the princess is keeping a secret from me, threw one of the biggest bastards of this universe in jail, got telepathic powers with my best friend, and now I just hooked up the doctor and Derpy, not bad for a Thursday.

"Well I don't have anything else I need to do today so I guess I can finally relax. Maybe I can hang out with Anna, I haven't really hung out with her since she got here." I contacted her with my mind powers. "Anna, can you hear me?"

"Will, is that you?"

"No it's just the other disembodied voice that lives inside your head. Yes it's me."

"Thank goodness, Twilight insisted on taking me with her to go get new scrolls and it's soooo boring."

"Well, how about I head over to the library and we can hang out later."

"That sounds good. Oh, I have to go Twilight noticed I'm not listening to her."

I spread my wings and flew off to the library. I got there fairly quickly so Twilight and Anna weren't back yet and I let myself inside. I looked around at some of the books trying to find one that would interest me.

"Squirtle!"

I heard a familiar sound coming from up the stairs; I looked up and saw Squirtle slowly hoping down the stairs one by one.

"Hey Squirtle how are you? Are you being good for your new trainer?"

I petted his head and he looked contempt.

"Squirtle."

"Ah, I'll never understand what you're saying. Well, you stay out of trouble and I'm going to get some water."

"Squirtle squirt-"

I saw him puff up his cheeks. "No Squirtle that's not what I meant-"

I was too late; he released a strong blast of water knocking me into the bookcase. After I got over the shock I noticed the pool of water on the floor as well as all the ruined books.

"Squirtle, look at what you did all of these books are ruined and I know Anna isn't going to be happy about this." I tried to sound disappointed but not angry.

"Squirtle. " Squirtle looked sad, but he also looked like he knew what he did wrong.

"Next time be more careful with other pony's things, you need to…to-"

My mind went into complete shutdown mode; I forgot what I was talking about, what I was doing, and why I was there. My strange trance was interrupted when I heard the door slam and I saw Twilight and Anna enter the room.

"Twilight good to see you how have you been?"

"I'm great Will what are you doing here?"

Now that she asks I had completely forgotten. "I…have no idea. It's like my mind was wiped, I'm really confused."

Twilight had a look of shock and concern on her face. "Owlowicious, I told you not to mess with your powers, you know how much that could hurt ponies."

"Okay this just adds on to my confusion will some pony please explain what's going on."

Anna stepped up to me. "Well you remember a few days ago when you helped me realize my special talent and I made Squirtle?"

"Yep, it was my birthday and shortly after I helped you put out a fire, I met the princess, and was beaten up unintentionally by my mare friend." I realized something. "Wow, normally if someone described that as their day they would be depressed but I had a ton of fun. Anyway yes I remember."

"Well I decided to experiment more with my powers and I made a new one."

I was still confused. "But if you created a new Pokémon shouldn't it be bouncing around here?"

"Well that's the thing, when I created Squirtle I used up a ton of magic energy and it took me a whole day before I was able to cast spells again so I decided instead of creating a Pokémon from scratch I'd use it more as a transformation, they'd be in control of their actions but their personality and appearance would change completely as well as having the powers of said Pokémon."
Now everything made sense. "That actually makes sense, but that still doesn't explain what happened to me."

Twilight spoke up. "I'll demonstrate for you." She faced Owlowicious. "Owlowicious, transform."

Suddenly, Owlowicious was enveloped in a bright light and he began to change. His wingspan became larger, he got taller, and I saw these weird things growing out of his eyebrows. Only when he was done changing did I get a good look at him and see what he became.

"Noctowl."

"A Noctowl? That's…awesome, oh! That explains why couldn't remember anything he used confusion on me."

"Exactly and they can control when they transform if they feel threatened or if we ask them to." Anna faced Noctowl. "Noctowl return."

Noctowl was enveloped in light again and he returned to looking like Owlowicious.

"Well that was interesting." I went up to Anna and tussled her mane. "Sugar Spice look at you, you're using your special talent to make awesome creatures. I'm so proud."

She smiled with contempt. "Yep I'm living the dream, well two dreams: One that I'm a unicorn in Equestria and two, I'm a Pokémon trainer."

"I know it's so cool right?" A thought just popped into my head. "Sugar, I know what we're going to do today."

"It's six o' clock at night." She corrected me.

"Never mind that, you want to do something fun? Why don't we head out and give every one of our friends pets a Pokémon transformation?"

She thought about it for a moment. "That sounds so cool I'm in."

"Alright let's go."

I opened the door and let her go first. "Bye Twilight we'll be back later."

Twilight didn't notice us however as she was mourning the loss of her precious books.

Anna and I went out into the town as the sun was close to setting.

"Who should we change first?" I asked.

Anna though for a bit. "Let's head for Fluttershy's house, she's great with animals and if she likes having a Pokémon then we know the rest of them will like it to."

Anna and I headed for Fluttershy's cottage, as we arrived we saw Fluttershy outside her house feeding her animals. We walked up slowly since we didn't want to startle her.

"Oh, hi Will…hi Sugar, what brings you here?"

"Fluttershy we were wondering something, would you like to see an interesting animal? One that you've never seen before?" I asked

"Oh my, I think I know about all of the animals here in Ponyville, what did you have in mind?"

"This isn't any normal animal Fluttershy; it's a special kind of animal called a Pokémon." Anna explained

"A Pokémon? Oh yes, Twilight explained that to me when she saw you make one, I saw that Squirtle once and I thought he was really cute. Do you think you've got one for me?"

Me and Anna looked at each other. "I think we can find just the one for you, why don't you bring out Angel bunny and we'll show you." I said

"Oh…okay I'll go get him."

As Fluttershy walked back into her cottage Anna and I had one of our telepathic conversations.

"Why do you want her to get Angel bunny?" Anna asked.

"Fluttershy might not be able to handle any random Pokémon, if its Angel bunny at least they'll know each other well and hopefully in his playful form he'll be more responsive to Fluttershy."

"Okay, but if its Angel bunny then there's only one Pokémon it could be, you know that right?"

"Yes, I thought that would be a good choice for her. It's cute, playful, and despite its size it defiantly has some skills."

"Okay."

"Why are we having this conversation telepathically?" I asked.

"Because it's cool. Look she's coming back."

Fluttershy came back with angel bunny in tow. "Okay here he is but why do you need him?"

Anna explained. "Well Fluttershy there are hundreds of Pokémon and they all look similar to other animals, for this to work we take an animal and then we give it a Pokémon's appearance, powers, and personality. It doesn't hurt them at all and they can change back whenever they want, what do you say?"

Fluttershy thought about it for a while, she looked concerned for her bunny's safety.

"I promise you, he won't get hurt at all."

That convinced her. "Okay I'd like to try it."

Anna looked excited. "Great, now just hold him still. I need complete concentration for this to work."

Anna came closer to Angel bunny and he started shifting in his seat but Fluttershy held him down and Anna put her horn on his head and she began to focus. She closed her eyes and a green aura lit up her horn as Angel was enveloped in a white light. For a minute we were absolutely silent until finally Anna spoke.

"Buneary, I choose you!"

She took her horn of Angel and suddenly he grew in size, when the transformation was over we got a good look at him.

"Buneary," I'm not sure if it was still a boy or not because Buneary always looked feminine to me.

"Oh my, I thought my little Angel couldn't get any cuter but I was wrong. He's so big now, and cute, and cuddly." She snuggled Buneary like there was no tomorrow.

"I'm glad you like him, not only is he cuter but he's also very fast and strong." Anna pointed out.

Fluttershy was confused. "What do you mean stronger?"

"I'll demonstrate." I offered to demonstrate Bunearys new powers (What was it with me and getting hit?) In any case, I stepped over to the side and spread my hooves.

"Anna, give Fluttershy the instructions." I thought.

"Okay Fluttershy, in this form Buneary will have a few super powers some of which she'll know and some she will have to learn over time. One of these moves is the quick attack, to do this simply say her name, tell her to use it, and then pick a target okay?"

Fluttershy nodded. "Okay, umm…Buneary please use quick attack on Will…I mean if that's okay."

"Buneary." She got herself prepared then charged at me with great speed while a white trail was following her. She smacked her head into me which sent me back a few feet and knocked the air out of me.

Fluttershy looked worried. "Oh my. I don't want my little angel to hurt anypony."

"Don't worry; he'll only attack if you tell him to. Also, if you want him to change back all you need to say is Buneary return, try it." I pointed out.

Fluttershy looked at Buneary. "Umm…Buneary return please."

Buneary was surrounded by a flash of light and then he turned back into Angel bunny.

"Oh my…thank you both, this is a wonderful gift."

"We're glad you like it Fluttershy and we hope that you get good use out of him."

"I'm sure I will, he's so cute in that form I know I'm going to love it."

Satisfied Anna and I went off to transform the other pony's pets into Pokémon. We turned Winona into a Riolu (tough and hardworking just like her owner, plus the other canine Pokémon are fire types which is a bad mix with trees.) Gummy became a Sandile (he was cute for now but wait until he got bigger) Opalescence into a Meowth (Rarity loved the gem on her forehead and her personality matches up with a Meowth) There was only one left to see and this one was gonna be my favorite. I flew up to Rainbow's house and asked her to bring down Tank. She brought him towards me and Anna on the ground.

"Okay, what's this about?"

"Anna and I have been going around and giving everyone else's pets an awesome transformation and we were wondering if maybe we can give Tank one."

Rainbow thought about it for a moment. "What kind of transformation?"

"We are going to allow him to turn into a cooler looking animal with a few super powers. I'm sorry but we can't make him fly though."

Rainbow looked a bit disappointed. "Alright, but he better be cool."

"Oh trust me he will be. Anna do your thing."

She put her horn up to Tank and focused with all her might. As she finished the spell she said the words. "Turtwig, I choose you."

When the glow subsided we saw the new form of Tank, his head had gotten bigger, his shell was now brown, and he had a sapling growing out of his head.

"Turtwig."

Rainbow Dash was looking him over. "Hm, well he defiantly looks cool but I don't see what the big deal is."

I needed to show how cool he was; I looked over to a nearby tree and had an idea.

"Let me show you something. Turtwig." Turtwig looked up at me. "Use razor leaf on that tree."

"Turtwig." He pulled his head back and then banged it forward and shot several leaf blades from his shell which sliced the tree into several small wooden blocks.

Needless to say Rainbow was impressed. "Whoa, that was…awesome! What else can he do?"

"Sorry can't tell you, if you want to figure out more about his powers you're going to have to train him and experiment yourself. I think you'll find that he's very tough but not very fast. And anytime you want him to change back all you have to do is say Turtwig return, try it."

She faced Turtwig. "Turtwig return."

Turtwig was enveloped in a bright light and then he returned to Tank.

Rainbow yawned. "Well it's getting late I think we should all get back home for a little shut eye."

I nodded. "Yeah, goodnight Sugar I had a lot of fun tonight."

"Me to, it was fun to use my new powers. Maybe we can all hang out tomorrow."

"That sounds like fun." I picked up Tank to take him home. "Have a good night."

We all went our separate ways, Rainbow and I flew back to the cloud house while Anna went back to the library and we all slept soundly.

As I was writing this chapter I realized that there's a major time gap between "Lesson Zero" which happened only a few days ago and "May the best pet win" when Rainbow Dash got Tank as a pet. Technically, I could have just written this chapter later but I really wanted to do it now so instead here are a few things that could have happened in an alternate time line.

Luna eclipsed: Will goes as Slender man and manages to scare a few ponies who wander into the forest

Sister hooves social: Will strayed at home, he has no sister and isn't a girl

Cutie pox: He told the town to calm the heck down.

And those are some of the things that could have happened in an alternate timeline.

Please review, favorite, and check out the poll on my profile I'm doing a survey to find out what story I should do next.
