Jessie: Is this a part where all the backtracking will be avoided?

dopliss: Why don´t you like the backtracking? I mean, it was no problem in the games, and the anime skipped most of it.

James: Yes, but you weren´t there during the endless walking until something happened to the twerps.

Disclaimer: I don´t own either Nintendo´s version or Metroanime´s version.


12:37, Monday.

"Well, here we are again," Julia said upon her and her master entering the town before DigTit´s Cave.

"That´s one town down… out of…" Christian said and began counting the amount of towns between Vermilion City and Cerulean City.

"Considering the amount of days it took to get to Vermilion, I´ll bet a bucketful of fish that it´ll take us weeks before we´re in Celadon," the Catgirl sighed.

The tailed Tamer then remembered something. "Speaking of weeks, didn´t that NurseJoy say that Sadie Pokens will happen this week?" he asked his Alpha.

"Yeah, you´re right." Julia looked around and noticed all of the Pokégirls and men working to set up several stands and attractions. "Looks like we arrived just in time. Who knows what new harem-members we´ll get?"

"Or lose, for that matter," Christian said depressingly.

Christian then noticed a lone Pokégirl trying to lift something big and round. She had grayish-blue skin, short blonde hair, red eyes, a nice C-cup, and quite the tall, muscular body. She wore a tank top, blue sneakers, black shorts, and studded, fingerless gloves. Seeing her struggle with the round object caused the goody two-shoes inside of Christian to stir up. He recalled his Catgirl into her ´ball and walked over to the woman.

"Damn! C´mon, you round piece of shit! Move!" the muscular ´girl cursed while attempting to lift the object.

"Hey, do you need any help?" the tailed Tamer asked her.

The girl took a look at him and said, "Sure. By the way it´s going now, this thing will never make it to the stand."

Christian took a hold on the object and managed to help lift it. "Quite heavy. What is this thing, anyway?" he asked.

"It´s a roulette wheel, used for a lottery tomorrow."

"Ah, at Sadie Pokens, right?" he asked.

"Yeah." The girl then thought of something. "Why are you helping me, by the way?"

"I just can´t stop myself from helping a beautiful damsel in distress," he said, causing the girl to blush. "Where´re we putting this thing? My arms are starting to numb."

The two carried the roulette over to a stand and connected it to the back wall. "Thanks for the help… Mr.…" she thanked, trying to fish for a name.

"Haydon. Christian Haydon," the tailed Tamer said. "And you?"

"Oh. My name is Kimmy."

Christian rubbed his chin in thought as he looked Kimmy over. "I think I´ve seen something like you before… Are you an Amachop?"

The muscular girl chuckled. "Close but no cigar. I´m an evolution higher," she said.

Curious about what breed the girl was, he simply scanned her.

AMACHOKE, the Muscle-Bound Pokégirl

Type: Very Near Human

Element: Fighting

Frequency: Very Uncommon

Diet: Human style with mineral supplements

Role: Physical Labor, particularly in construction

Libido: Low

Strong Vs: Bug, Dark, Ice, Rock, Normal, Steel

Weak Vs: Flying, Psychic

Attacks: Body Slam, Toss, Crushing Punch, Takedown, Earthquake, Headbutt, Focus

Enhancements: Enhanced density (x3), Enhanced Strength (x14), Enhanced Durability (x8), reinforced musculoskeletal structure

Disadvantages: Inability to Swim

Evolves: Amachamp (Battle Stress)

Evolves From: Amachop (normal)

Evolution changes all girls, and few change more than the Amachop when she finally gets enough experience to evolve into an Amachoke. Shooting up a full three feet in height, the startling new size of the Pokégirl has unnerved some Tamers, who now have to look up at a Pokégirl they once had to look down to. Of course, this is often forgiven after becoming eyelevel with the Amachoke's new bust line, which has grown into a hefty C-cup. This, combined with the fact that an Amachoke's muscles no longer bulge about her body like it did when she was an Amachop, makes the Amachoke much more visually appealing, and the Pokégirl herself knows this.

In fact, the newly evolved Pokégirl is so obvious in showing off her new body and how beautiful it was compared to her old one that it borders on narcissism. If there's a chance that she can promote her new body, she'll take it and often put down anyone that disagrees with her both verbally and physically. This has caused quite a few squabbles between Amachokes and their harem-sisters; particularly the ones who are more well-endowed than the Amachoke, flaunting their assets despite the Amachoke's new body. Other than her desire to show off, Amachoke is very much unchanged from Amachop, desiring to train to improve her strength and get stronger.

That aspect in itself is frightening to some, considering an Amachoke could, with effort, lift a full ton of weight above her head. This and her tough skin make her forgo any form of martial arts, believing and often backing up the fact that she can take a hit with ease and return it with enough strength to send all but the heaviest and strongest of Pokégirls flying. Of course, her body still sinks like a rock, so it's useless trying to have the girl swim, though that same density allows her easier movement through the water. Their new size and muscles also mean she's heavier, and it's to the point now that it's suggested that she no longer Tames on top.

In battle, Amachokes handle themselves much like their younger forms, tossing in all their strength into a match. This makes them very scary fighters, as anything physical is nearly useless against them and such the power of their strength that almost any ´girl behind a full powered punch of an Amachoke is often considered to be lucky to still be alive. However, this also leaves the Amachoke with a large glaring weakness for when she fights anyone who fights using non-physical abilities, particularly when Ghosts are concerned, with most of them having the ability of phasing through the muscled Pokégirl. The overreliance of strength also shows when compared to some of the techniques of other Pokégirls, though the Amachoke still boasts that it'll take a lot more than a bunch of fancy movements to take down her power.

Sexually, Amachokes wants to be admired. With her new body, she wants her Tamer (and harem-sisters, when willing) to pay attention to her, particularly her new breasts. A good Tamer can bring his Pokégirl to orgasm by massaging them without even touching between the Pokégirls legs, the love and attention to her sore muscles pleasing the Amachoke and often making her just as randy as if she had caught a face full of Lust Dust. However, where with her previous form it was suggested, Amachokes require restraints. Any Tamer who doesn't use them will, in all likelihood, end up crushed by their Pokégirl´s fantastic strength.

Feral Amachokes are a bit more dangerous than their sister Amachops. While Amachops are intelligent and aggressive when feral, Amachokes suffer a much lower intelligence, coupled with narcissism and the lack of control they issue over their strength, disturbing ANY feral Amachoke when she's paying attention to herself in a reflective surface is just like walking into known Widow territory: just asking for trouble. It's often suggested to have a strong Magic or Psychic Pokégirl on hand when facing any feral Amachoke.

Threshold Amachokes are not unheard of, but quite rare, as most girls don't pass by the younger stage of Amachop. Those that do, however, often pick up the narcissism quality of their new forms, first with the same training and desire to get stronger as the Amachop following soon after. Just like Amachop, Threshold Amachokes have no idea just how to control their strength and are often afraid of touching anything for fear they might break it.

"So, what, are you only here to set up the place or are you planning on participating in tomorrow´s events?" Christian asked as he put away his ´dex.

"Both," the Amachoke shrugged. "I´m kind of looking for a cute guy who can help me train."

They got it right on the narcissism remark, he thought and sweat-dropped. "By the way, the ´dex said your breed can lift a full ton, so how much does that roulette weight?"

"A bit over a ton, I guess."

"Well, see ya tomorrow, maybe," he said and left for the Pokécenter to train.

"Thanks again, by the way!" she shouted after him.


13:46, Tuesday, Christian´s subconscious.

Christian was all alone in a completely white void. There was not a single person in sight and not a single sound to be heard.

{…Help…}

Something broke the silence for a second and caused the tailed Tamer to look around in confusion. "Who´s there?" he asked.

What he got as an answer was a pained moan from something feminine.

{…Help…}

He then vaguely saw an outline of a person in chains. He tilted his head in wonder and tried to ask-

BEEEEEP!


13:47, reality.

Christian literally jumped out of bed in shock from the sound that woke him up and landed on the floor. He got up and shouted," What the hell was that?"

"Someone with a foghorn. So, I guess it was someone outside."

He turned and saw a fully dressed Julia. "Good to see you´re up," he said. "Are the others out of their ´balls as well?"

"Yup, every single one of them," she answered.

He got dressed and looked out of the window. Down below on the streets he could see hundreds of people drinking, flirting, participating in the several attractions, and even see someone Taming in the alleys visible. "Some people just got no shame," he muttered to himself.

He turned around and saw the rest of his harem greet him with smiles. "Morning, Master," Kira said.

"I don´t know if you´re allowed to call me that anymore," he said depressingly.

"What? Why?" Catherine asked.

"You know what day it is. All of you are free to leave me."

"What´re you talking about?" Blaze asked, angered by how bluntly he said it. "As if any of us would ever leave you!"

"Sorry… but it´s not like I can stop anyone from taking you." Christian took one of the Pokéballs and tried to recall one of his girls, but it was futile. He put it and the other ´balls on the table and walked over to the door. "You can leave me or you can stay… it´s your decisions." And then he left.

The harem just stood there, speechless from what their master had just said. "He must be outta his mind," Flora said. "There´s no way we will leave him."

"That´s right, Flora!" the Panthress agreed. "I mean, after how much kindness he´s shown us, who here actually wants to leave him for someone else?"

"Certainly not me!" the Catgirl said. "After making me his Alpha and comforting me after my abortion, he thinks I´ll leave him? Not on my life!"

"I-I don´t wanna leave him either…" Luna said. "He was very kind to me, even though I wasn´t his. I-I want to r-repay the favor."

"Yeah, I´ll stay too!" the Ivywhore said. "I´m not just a flower you pluck, keep for a while, and then give to someone else."

"After getting me away from that asshole of a master I had before, how could I ever leave him now?" the Charmelons asked. "He´s keeping me around, no questions asked."

"And he´s the only man I would never tear apart and eat! It is impossible for me to find someone else!" Kira said.

The only ones who were silent were Catherine, Silvia and Lightning. "Aren´t you gonna say something?" Julia asked.

"Well, we don´t know if there´re someone better than him," the Peekabu stated.

"It´s pretty common of someone to allow his ´girls to leave him during Sadie Pokens," the Warcat stated.

"I´m pretty much used to this," the Cheetit said.

"WHAT?" Julia shouted. "Are you three stupid? Are you just gonna leave him like it´s no big deal? That´s bullshit!"

"Hey, he´s just doing what any normal Tamer would do. It´s no big deal," the muscular feline said.

"But he´s NOT any normal Tamer!" the black-furred feline protested. "He´s the one person that you would willingly die for, no matter what!"

"It´s not like there´s anything special about him," the electric rodent stated.

"Wrong!" Flora said. "You think he´s like any normal Tamer? How many 'normal' Tamers do you know who cries for the death of someone he only knew for a week?"

The three were interested in what was just blurted out; the same could be applied to Luna. "What does that mean?" all four of them asked at once.

Julia became incredibly depressed as she told her unknowing harem-sisters, "You see, before you two joined us, Catherine and Silvia, there were five of us. The last one was called Aqua, a Vaporita that he helped. Even though he only knew her for a week, he formed a deep bond with her. And when she was killed, well… Master was utterly crushed."

Lightning looked like she was ready to cry; Silvia looked down in sadness; Luna was wiping away some tears from her eyes. But the biggest reaction was what Catherine did: walk out of the door.


13:57, downtown.

Christian stood in front of the stand with the roulette that he had helped Kimmy moving. He noticed a sign next to the stand, and on it were several images, each showing what prize they would give. There were no images showing that you would not win anything, so the game was literally a win-win situation. He sat down and paid a small fee to play the game.

"Hi, Master."

He turned and was met by Catherine. The fast feline had a sadness written all over her face. "Anything wrong?" he asked.

"No… I just heard about your Vaporita…" she said.

His eyes widened when he heard that, and then they softened. "So, you know about her, huh?"

"Yeah… and you know what?"

"What?"

The Cheetit then hugged her master tightly. "After hearing how you lost one of your loved ones, how could we ever leave you? We´ll never leave you, Master… not if it´ll break your heart."

He was highly surprised by those words, and they caused a few tears to leave his eyes. "Thank you… I guess I was pretty stupid to give you the option of leaving."

"No, it´s okay. You were just thinking of what we wanted to do."

"Oi! Not to interrupt your emotional quality time," the man in charge of the stand said, gaining the tailed Tamer´s attention, "but you won this." He gave the boy a small crystal.

"Um… what have I won?" Christian asked.

"It´s a Mana Crystal. It´s like an evolution stone, but it´s very rare."

Christian nodded and left the stand with his Cheetit. Walking over to a nearby food stand, he spotted a familiar face. "Hey, nice to see you again!" he smiled. "Having fun, Kimmy?"

The Amachoke looked at the one who was talking to her and smiled. "Hey, having fun?" she asked.

"Yeah, just won a prize," he said.

"Do you know her, Master?" Catherine asked.

"Yeah, I helped her with lifting something for one of the stands yesterday. Catherine, meet Kimmy. Kimmy, meet Catherine," he introduced.

The Cheetit then noticed three beer bottles standing on the table next to the Amachoke. "Have you drunk all of those?" she asked.

"Yeah," Kimmy sheepishly admitted with a hic. "I have always been a bit of a drunk. Want one?"

Christian held up his hands in refusal. "No thanks, I don´t drink," he said.

"C´mon, Master – it´s a day of celebration!" Catherine said and took one of the bottles. "Time for the baby to have its bottle!" she laughed as she forced her master to drink the alcohol.

"Looks like I found out who´s the party person in your harem," Kimmy laughed.

"There! Don´t you feel more in the need to party?" the fast feline asked once she removed the empty bottle from her master´s mouth.

Not two seconds later, Christian began acting very weird. His eyes became unfocused, a goofy grin spread across his face, and his face turned red. He looked at Kimmy and said, "Y´know, you´re quite the schexchy woman…! Doesch your maschter ever tell you your muschclesch make you look gorgeousch?"

Both Pokégirls sweat-dropped when hearing this, not expecting something like that coming from a person who only have had one bottle of beer. "Um, are you alright?" the Amachoke asked.

"I´m right asch rain! More fine than a… uh… a fine!" he rambled.

"I… think we should take him back to his room," the Cheetit suggested. Both females nodded and led the tailed Tamer back to his rented room.


14:06, Christian´s room.

"Looks like they´re having fun down there," Blaze stated, bored by sitting still all day in the room.

"Well, we can either go down there to join the fun and leave our master, or we can stay here and make him happy," Silvia said.

Just then, Catherine and Kimmy entered the room with the drunken Christian. "Hello, ladies! Daddy´s home!" the latter shouted upon entry.

A long silence lasted when the harem heard this, until Julia broke it by asking, "How much did he drink?"

"One bottle," the Cheetit bluntly answered.

"How big a bottle?" Kira asked.

"50 cl., I guess."

"But… that´s impossible…" the Catgirl said.

"You know, we could really usche another schtrongwoman on the team," Christian said and groped Kimmy´s breasts. "I mean, Schilvia´sch alright, but you can alwaysch have schome exchtra muschcle on the team."

"Uh, is he usually this… needy?" the Amachoke asked.

"No. Usually, we´re the ones to initiate the Taming sessions," Lightning said.


09:35, Wednesday.

Christian slowly opened his eyes, was greeted by a thundering headache, and sat up while rubbing his temples. He looked to his right and saw his Panthress lay with her eyes slightly opened. "Oh shit, my head hurts like hell," he whispered. "What happened last night?"

"Actually, it took the entire day," Kira said, sitting up as well.

"What?"

"After you came back, you lured the Amachoke into a Taming session along with me and ´balled the others. After she came, she said she wanted you to be her master. And then we spent the rest of the day fucking like crazy." The feline smirked. "You should drink more often."

"The reason I don´t drink is ´cause my blood can´t handle it. One small bottle is like six of them." He looked at his left and saw the sleeping Amachoke. "So, I guess Kimmy is part of the harem now."

"Indeed. I´m surprised that you could have her on top of you without getting squished flat."

"Well, I am pretty durable."

Kimmy was still sleeping soundly, drooling because she dreamt of the Taming session she just had. "Oh god, his tongue is amazing…" she muttered.
