Chap 54: A Surprise from Kalos

Two girls from the Kalos region arrive in Nimbasa City. Team Mutant are up to no good and Mike isn't acting like himself for some reason.

-A-

Daniel came out of the battle club and he saw that the streets of Nimbasa City were empty because of the match between Mike and Zoey.

'What the hell.' He thought and then went on the subway and got to inside of the stadium and then he saw that Zoey was just walking onto the battlefield. 'Great, I got here just in time.' Then he was looking for any empty seats and he was walking for minutes but he struggled to find one from where he was in the crowd and then he finally saw one…unfortunately for him it was next to the girl he was talking with from before. 'You've got to be kidding me.' Then he reluctantly decides to sit there.

"Daniel. What are you doing here?" she asked

"I decided to watch the battle, unfortunately I got here late and I couldn't find any empty seats."

Then the girl glared at Daniel. "I can't believe I thought you wanted to sit next to me."

"I don't hate you, you know. I just find you annoying." He said in his monotonous voice. "What's your name anyway?"

"My name is Iris, and I'm training to…"

"Hold that thought." He said as the battle was starting.

"Ready Mike?" Zoey asked

"Yeah, don't hold back." Mike replied.

Cue Pokémon: BW Rival Destinies theme song

-A-

"BATTLE BEGIN!" Chef yelled

"Okay, Golett let's start with Rollout!" then he rolled towards Nidoqueen after he curled into a ball.

"Well you did tell me not to hold back. Nidoqueen use Fire Blast!" then Nidoran blasted a fire ball in the shape of a flat five pointed star and then it hit Golett and then he fell backwards.

"Golett use Gyro Ball!" then he rolled towards Nidoqueen as his arms glowed light blue. And then he hit Nidoqueen.

"So you became part of the Elite Four. That's great." Said Mike.

"Thanks, so how have you been?"

"Well… I missed you and I couldn't get in touch with you, what with you being part of the Elite Four and all."

"Well I'm free tomorrow maybe we can talk then?"

Mike: 'Did Zoey just ask me out.'

"Sure, I'd like that. Now Golett use Shadow Punch!" Golett threw a shadowy fist towards Nidoqueen.

"Nidoqueen use Earth Power!" then Nidoqueen stomped on the ground with one foot and then yellow cracks in the ground began to spread towards Golett and then a yellow light erupted from it and then it exploded and then Golett flew back.

"Darn!" said Mike. "Golett use Gyro Ball!" then his hands glowed blue and then he curled himself and then was rolling towards Nidoqueen and then he managed to hit Nidoqueen in the leg. Then he jumped back. "Now use Shadow Punch!" then he threw a shadowy punch towards Nidoqueen.

Then it hit and then Nidoqueen flew back. "Nidoqueen. We can do this, use Flamethrower." Then she threw continuous flames towards Golett and then he flew back. "Now Fire Blast!" then she blasted a five pointed toward Golett.

"Golett dodge it with Rollout!" then he rolled away from the attack.

"Nidoqueen, now use Dragon Tail!" then her tail glowed cyan then the jumped into the air and flipped and then the tail hit Golett in the head and he slid back to Mike. "Sorry. But you did say I mustn't hold back."

Mike: 'How could Zoey get so strong, I mean it was only a year since we last saw each other.'

"Nidoqueen use Dragon Tail again!" then Nidoqueen ran towards Golett and then she was going to swipe her tail at Golett.

"Golett jump over it!" then he did so. "Now use Shadow Punch!" then he from close range he threw a shadowy punch at Nidoqueen's face and then she flew back. "Now use Gyro Ball!" then Golett rolled towards Nidoqueen and then after Nidoqueen got up she got hit in the gut.

"Sorry Mike, but… Nidoqueen use Bulldoze." Then she jumped up into the air and then landed on the ground and it shook then he fell on to the ground after the tremor. "We need to end this Nidoqueen use Fire Blast!" then she blasted a Five pointed fireball towards Golett.

"Golett, dodge it." But he was hit by the attack and then he slammed into the wall.

"Golett is unable to battle, Nidoqueen wins and the victory goes to Zoey."

"Sorry." She said as she took out her Pokéball.

"Don't worry about it. Golett return."

"Nidoqueen return."

"Wow Zoey really is powerful." Said Gill

"Well obviously, she's the fire type specialist of the Elite Four." Said Gwen.

"She basically took him down with no problem. I wonder how powerful the champion is."

"Don't get your hopes up babe, I hear the champ is a cynical jerk." Said Leshawna.

"C'mon let's get going." Said Trent.

-A-

Then back at Nimbasa City it was close to midnight and he some of the trainers were heading to the Pokémon centre to turn in for the night.

"Hey Gwen, where are you going?" Bridgette asked

"We are heading to the Driftveil Drawbridge. So we can head Drivtveil City." Said Gwen.

"Really, at this hour." Dawn asked

"Hey, we need to get there early so we can face the gym leader there."

"Wait, have you already beat the Nimbasa City gym?!"

"Yeah, just before the tournament." Said Gwen.

"Now shall we go?" Trent asked then Gwen and Leshawna nodded.

"We'll be seeing you guys later." Said Leshawna. Then the three of them and Leshinga left for Driftveil City.

"Well I'm going to turn in so I can have my gym battle." Said Gill then he walked into the Pokémon center. Dawn and Bridgette followed.

-A-

Mike was walking next to Zoey in a meadow filled with different coloured flowers. They were holding hands, thereafter Mike pulled her into a hug.

"Zoey, there is something, I've wanted to tell you for a long time."

"What is it?" she asked

"Well maybe it would be better if I showed you." Then Zoey closed her eyes as if she knew what Mike meant. "He then gulped, they were closing in on one another and then Mike closed his eyes, and for some reason he felt Zoey's presence had disappeared, he opened his eyes and saw that Zoey was gone and that he was now in an abandoned wasteland with a black sky and drizzling ashes.

"What's going on?" he asked himself, then he saw Manitoba and Vito running for their lives, Mike went over to his other personalities. "Hey why are you guys running?"

"Outa the way shrimp!" Vito then pushed Mike down to the ground and kept running. "Every man for himself."

"Get up, mate." Manitoba rushed as he helped Mike to his feet. "We have to get out of here before he catches us."

Mike saw Svetlana and Chester just close behind. "Vhy are you stopping. He vill catch us if we don't hurry."

"Who will catch us?" Mike asked

"The Malevolent One." Svetlana said in infinite fear.

Then they saw a figure that was walking towards them, this figure was completely black and had the silhouette of Mike accept only one of his eyes was visible. Then he saw that all his personalities were held down by tendrils made of shadows, they were now unable to move, Mike included.

"Hello there Mike, it's been a long time." The shadow figure said as he moved in closer. "I'm back and no one can stop me!" then he charged towards Mike, everything went black.

Mike woke up in his bed in a cold sweat and was panting as well. 'Was all that a dream, it didn't feel like a dream. Wait… no it couldn't be. Could it.'

Mike was unable to sleep for the rest of the night.

-A-

It was afternoon the next day and Gill was preparing to head out.

"I'm happy to report that your Pokémon are in fine condition." Said Nurse Jane

"Thanks I'm so going to win my fourth gym battle!" he yelled.

"Thought you could leave without us?" Bridgette asked as she and Dawn walked into the room.

"Well…uh."

"When you win your fourth gym badge, I want to be there, cheering on." the trio began walking to the gym, but they saw that the doors were locked.

"What the what?!" Gill exclaimed.

"Hmm, maybe she's at the a popular attraction in Nimbasa City." Bridgette guessed

"You could be right. I'm going to find Craig." Gill began walking away.

"Wait, why?" Bridgette yelled.

"He owes me a battle!" he yelled back he ran off to find Craig

"It would appear that you are right after all, Gill really does have a one tracked mind." The moonchild said causing Bridgette to scratch the back of her head awkwardly.

"What can I say. Can't change him can ya." She replied as she was sweat dropping. "I know, why don't we go to the Pokémon Musical?"

"I hear that the Pokémon that feature in them a highly elegant and go through rigorous etiquette training. Sure, shall we vacate?"

Bridgette chuckled. "Actually, maybe it would be better if we went tomorrow, I just want to rest for today and Dawn, you've got to stop using complicated words." So the two were now heading to the Pokémon Centre, while Gill was going to ask Craig for a Pokémon battle.

-A-

Mike meanwhile was waiting for Zoey on of the benches. Then Kevin and Izzy were about to walk past him.

"Mike, what are you doing here?" Kevin asked

"I'm just waiting for Zoey."

"You're meeting up with Zoey?" Izzy asked

"Yeah, well I hope she shows up." He said.

"Mike are you okay, you look like you haven't got much sleep last night." Kevin asked clearly concerned with what is happening to Mike.

"Oh don't worry I'm fine."

"Well we're about to head out to Driftveil City. You want to come with?"

"No I'll stay here for a while."

Then the three of them saw Zoey walking up to them.

"Hey guys." She said.

"Yeah we'll leave you two alone." Said Izzy. Then she grabbed Kevin's hand and dragged him away.

"Wait where are we going?" Kevin asked

"Anywhere that isn't here?" she said and then she put Kevin on her back and then ran.

"So, how's the Elite Four treating you?" he asked

"It's kinda boring sometimes. I mean, winning the Vertress Conference last year was great and all and beating the previous Elite Four was awesome, but then when I faced Noah. I just crashed and burned. However since one member of the Elite Four had to retire, they asked if I could fill that place and I agreed. But unless a trainer wants to challenge the Champion. That's when they call us and so they have to beat all of us to challenge the Champion for the crown. Until that happens, we don't do much battling, though we do get to travel around a lot."

"Hey, why don't you travel with me for a while?" Mike asked shyly

"Huh?"

"Well, me and my good friend."

"So, you want me to travel with you guys?"

"Well if that is okay with you?"

Then Zoey put her fingers to her chin. "Well if Noah does need us he can always give us a call. And it's not like any of them are at the Pokémon League right now. Sure why not?" she said.

"Oh…well that's great." He said while blushing and he was also playing with his fingers.

"What's on your Agenda?" she asked.

"Well I was going to go to Castelia City to challenge the gym there."

"Well why don't we go there right now?"

"Really, unless you have something you have to do here."

"Not really, so let's find Cameron." But before they could leave they saw an orange and pale yellow gerbil like Pokémon that had whiskers in the shape of antennas and had red cheeks. "Who's this Pokémon." Then Mike took out his Pokédex and scanned the Pokémon.

? – No Data…

"No data?" Mike asked. "There is a Pokémon that the Pokédex doesn't know?"

"Hey there Mike?" said a voice and then a scrawny dark skinned person was walking towards them, he had black glasses, and had a red jacket and yellow shorts. He wore yellow and red sneakers with white socks.

"Cameron? I haven't seen you in a while, where were you?" said Mike.

"I was just checking out Nimbasa City, the tournament didn't interest me much, anyway congratulations on winning."

"Hey Cameron, you wouldn't happen to know what Pokémon this is. Because the Pokédex doesn't." Zoey asked

"Then it could mean that…" then he thought for a while. "Eureka, it must be from another region, but it's not from Johto, Kanto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and Unova." Cameron explained.

Then Cameron looked at the Pokémon and then it waved to him.

"I wonder if it is a wild Pokémon." Then Mike took out a Pokéball and was about to attempt to catch it.

"WAIT!" the three of them heard a girl's voice yelling out to them. Then when she got there she was panting. She had red eyes, she's wearing a red vest, white top quarter-length, black pleated skirt, gray tights, red high-tops, magenta headband with rhinestones, red cat-eye glasses, has long dark pink hair past the waist and it's down, and a Mega Ring. "You shouldn't run off like that, Dedenne." She said.

"Dedenne, I've never heard of that Pokémon before?" said Zoey.

"Hey Cam have you heard of this Pokémon before?" Mike asked but he got no response. "Cam? Hello?" Mike began to wave his hands in front of Cameron.

'Who is that stunning girl?' Cameron thought to himself, his vision was fixated on her, he later snapped out of it two seconds after his thoughts. "May-may I ask what your name is?" Cameron asked, stuttering his words.

"Oh, my name is Irina. In case you're interested, I'm from Lumiose City in the Kalos region."

"That would explain, why Dedenne isn't in the Pokédex, it's from another region. Hi there, these are my friends, Cameron and Mike." Zoey said pointing to them.

Mike then gasped and he then put on a fedora . "Well, well, well." He said in an Australian accent. "Irina, huh. Well ain't that a beautiful name." he said and he grabbed her hand and kissed it.

Irina put her hair in front of her face to hide her blush. "Well, t…thanks Mike."

"Mike, no, no sheila, name's Manitoba."

"Manitoba?" Irina and Zoey said confusedly.

Cameron quickly took the fedora off Manitoba and he gasped.

"Don't worry, Mike is just an actor, a very good actor."

"So, he was just pretending to like me." She asked raising an eyebrow

"No, no I didn't mean it like, that. Who wouldn't like you, you're beautiful." Cameron then blushed when he realised what he just said. "I mean, that you're not repulsive… no, I mean… you're pretty. No! That's not what I meant, what I mean to say was…"

"It's okay, I know what you meant, Cameron. Thanks"

"Oh… well… no, problem." He said while playing with his fingers.

"Hey Zoey. Since you're part of the Elite Four I was hoping to have a battle with your Nidoqueen and two others, it would mean so much to me."

"Uh, sure why not. We'll battle, Irina."

"Thanks."

-A-

Jo was just about to leave Nimbasa City and Daniel was walking with her.

"So you want me to suggest what Pokémon you should get, huh?" then she began to think. "You should find a Metagross in the Giant Chasm or find a way to find a Rhyperior. You will need the best in order to be the best trainer in Unova."

"I understand." He said as he wrote down where to find Metagross and kept Rhyperior in mind.

"Well I'm heading back to the gym; I'll be seeing you at the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup. And I hope to see you win."

"Failure isn't an option." He said then he heard rusting in a tree behind him.

"Well I'm off." Then she walked on the path back to Castelia City.

Daniel then looked behind him, then he picked up a stone and chucked it at the tree behind him. Then it came speeding back out and it nearly hit him in the face before he ducked. "I know it's you, Iris!" she jumped out of the tree and then landed on her feet.

"What's wrong with you!" she yelled. "You threw a stone at me!"

"Well I assume you caught it, since it was flying back towards me." He said. "But that's not the point, why were you spying on me? You know what it doesn't matter I should be heading to Driftveil City anyway."

"Actually. The bridge is currently being repaired so it will only be working tomorrow."

"Great, stuck here for another day."

"Actually I know another way we could get there."

"Oh really." He said sarcastically.

"Just follow me alright." Iris began to walk away

Then Daniel sighed and then put his hands in his pockets. "This ought to be good."

-A-

Meanwhile a person who was wearing a black shirt, with a long sleeve cream vest underneath, has black jean shorts and had red sneakers and a green Mohawk, was walking through the streets as if he was looking for someone.

'Ah great, if I don't find him then Mal, will take control and Team Mutant will follow.' He had an ear piece and put his finger onto it to talk to the person on the other side.

"Yeah, it's me."

"Did you find him, Duncan?" a female voice asked from the other side of the earpiece

"Nope I still can't find him."

"I see. It is important that we find him and stop him before he finds a way to Mega Evolve his Pokémon."

"Okay, would you then tell me who his friends are or where he is right now."

"I can try, but even though I've hacked into the cameras all over… Wait I see them they are over by the route heading to the Driftveil Drawbridge."

"Okay, I'm on it." Duncan was about to start running to the area, but he ran into a figure, she fell to the ground.

"Ow." She said while holding her head. She had long ginger hair in pigtails past the waist, wears a pink top, a white mini skirt, black socks thigh-high, pink Mary Jane shoes, has a Mega Charm necklace shape.

"Maybe you'd like to watch where you're going." Duncan said with a straight face.

"Oh, sorry I was looking for my friend, red shirt, grey skirt, red glasses, Dedenne on her shoulder?"

"I think I would have noticed a…"

"Duncan, that girl she's looking for. I see her on the feed right now. Maybe we could use her to our advantage. We should test her strength, challenge her to a battle." The voice in the earpiece said to Duncan.

"Actually I've seen her, but I'll only tell you if you beat me in a double battle."

"Seriously?" She said, next thing she knew she was taking a Pokéball from her bag and then was preparing to battle. "Very well, if I beat you, you will tell me where I can find my friend."

"Would I lie to you?" Duncan smirked and flashed a cheeky grin.

"Why do I have this feeling that I'm going to regret this." The girl said to herself.

"Okay, Dusclops, Scrafty. Come out!" Duncan threw the Pokéballs in the air and then two Pokémon came out, one was a bipedal ghost type with one eye, and the other was coloured orange and had a yellow pants and a hood that would cover his face except the eyes.

'Okay, Kelsey you can do this.' The girl thought to herself. "Roserade, Chandelure. I need you!" then she threw two Pokéballs into the air, two Pokémon flashed from the Pokéballs and they formed on the ground covered in a cyan flash. One was a Pokémon that looked like a chandelier and had indigo flames coming out of it. The other was a bipedal green Pokémon with red and blue roses for hands. "I have no time for this so I'll end this quickly. Chandelure use Flame Burst! Roserade use Magical Leaf!" Roserade's flowers glowed green then flung green leaves shaped like crescents towards Scrafty. Chandelure blasted a blue fireball and it managed to strike Dusclops.

"Looks like we have a feisty one." Duncan smirked. "But I'm not going down so easily. Dusclops use Shadow Ball on Chandelure, Scrafty use High Jump Kick on Roserade!" Dusclops put his hands together and shot a ball of darkness at Chandelure. Scrafty began running towards Roserade then his knee glowed bright orange.

"Roserade dodge it!" then Roserade got out of the way and Scrafty hit the ground with his knee and caused himself damage. But she saw that Chandelure was hit with Shadow Ball. 'Crap, I've never like Double Battles.'

-A-

On the route exiting Nimbasa City, Mike, Cameron, Zoey and Irina were walking and then Irina then stood in front of Zoey. "So how about that battle?" she asked

"Oh you mean right now? Sure, it will be interesting to face a trainer from the Kalos region."

The friends found a grassy area to watch Zoey and Irina's battle.

"I wonder what Pokémon Irina uses." Said Cameron.

"We'll just have to wait and see." Said Mike.

"Okay, you ready Irina?" Zoey asked as she took out a Pokéball.

"Yeah, let's do this."

"Heatmor, lets win this." A bipedal anteater like Pokémon with yellow claws flashed out of the Pokéball.

"Heatmor huh?" Irina looked to her shoulder. "Hey Dedenne, wanna give it a try?" Dedenne jumped off her shoulder and landed on the ground. "That's great, Dedenne use…"

"CODY! WHERE ARE YOU?!" a voice asked

"What was that?" Mike asked

"I'm pretty sure I know who that is." Said Zoey.

"Oh no! You've got to hide me." Said Cameron as he began to panic.

A tall figure came out, and made herself seen to the others.

"A girl? What's wrong with her?" Irina asked.

"Her name is Sierra, and… let's just say she's a crazed sugar fan. Or at least that's how Noah describes her." Said Zoey. "She likes this boy called Cody, and ever since Noah let us leave the Pokémon League, she's been on a quest to look for him."

"But, she thinks I'm Cody." Cameron said shaking in fear.

Irina giggled. "Why is that?"

"I don't know."

"Codykins! I finally found you!" the girl called Sierra said. She was dressed in a yellow top with no shoulder support or sleeves, was dark skinned and had brown eyes. She wore turquoise coloured pants and had the same colour with her shoes. Probably her biggest feature was her pink/purple dyed hair, and it was platted and went down to the end of her back. She ran over to Cameron and pulled her into a huge spine crushing hug.

"My name is Cameron." He said struggling for air.

"Of course it is Camody… I mean Coderon… I mean Cameron." Sierra said while still holding him in a tight embrace.

"Sierra, you might want to let him go. I'm pretty sure that people's faces aren't supposed to turn blue like that." Said Irina.

"Oh sorry." She let go and Cameron fell to the ground. "Oh what cute Pokémon is this?" she asked as she ran towards and picked up Dedenne. "This must be the cutest Pokémon I've ever seen." Sierra began hugging Dedenne tightly and it was struggling to get free.

"Uh, I wouldn't do that!" Irina warned. Dedenne planted her cheek on Sierra's face and she was struck by a jolt of lighting from Dedenne's cheeks and they both glowed yellow and Sierra fell to the ground and was paralyzed, not to mention her hair was poofy. "Or that will happen…" She walked over to Cameron who was still on the ground. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, although I my back might be sore for the rest of the day. Thanks." Cameron said while blushing, but made sure Irina didn't notice.

"You're welcome." She then smiled. Dedenne walked back to Irina. "Now, let's begin Dedenne use Charge Beam!" Dedenne then blasted a beam of yellow electrical energy from her tail.

"Heatmor, use Flamethrower!" Heatmor blasted flames from his mouth and it beat Charge Beam and she got hit by the flames and landed on her stomach in pain.

"Quick, Dedenne use Nuzzle!" Dedenne ran towards Heatmor and the jumped into his face and her cheek hit the side of his face and they both became surrounded in a yellow electrical energy and she jumped back and Heatmor was paralyzed."

"What move was that?" Zoey asked

"It's called Nuzzle and not only does it do damage, but it also paralyzes the opponent. Now use Charge Beam, again!" Dedenne blasted an electric beam towards Heatmor and it hit.

"Okay, Heatmor use Fury Swipes!" his claws glowed white and he hit Dedenne three times with them.

"C'mon Dedenne, get up." She slowly got up. "I have a plan, use Parabolic Charge!" Dedenne turned around and blasted a stream of electricity from her tail and it hit Heatmor and he fell onto one knee and Dedenne began to jump up happily and looked energized.

"What just happened?" Zoey asked

"That's Parabolic Charge, not only does it damage the opponent, some of the energy is given to Dedenne." Irina explained

"Okay, Heatmor lets end this! Use Fire Spin!" Heatmor blasted spiralling flames towards Dedenne.

"Dodge it quick!" Dedenne jumped over the Fire Spin. "Now, Play Rough, Dedenne." Dedenne jumped towards Heatmor and the began fighting Heatmor and a dust cloud surrounded them both as Dedenne was beating the crap out of Heatmor. He then flew out of the dust cloud and he had swirls in his eyes.

"Okay, I'll admit that your Pokémon is tough. Heatmor return." And the Pokémon was brought back into the Pokéball. "I still have two more, so you're not out of the woods yet. Volcarona, let's go!" she threw out another Pokéball and a giant moth like Pokémon with orange wings came out. "Let's start with Heat Wave!" he blasted windy flames at Dedenne and she got caught in it and staggered back.

"Uh… no problem. Dedenne, use Parabolic Charge!" Dedenne turned around and fired a stream of electricity from her tail.

Volcarona dodged it with little problems. "Nice try, now use Hurricane!" Volcarona's wings glowed blue and he sent a huge gust of wind towards Dedenne and she flew back from the force of the wind and slammed into a nearby tree. "Now finish this with Fire Blast!" Volcarona blasted a five pointed ball of fire at Dedenne and the tree exploded and when the dust cleared Dedenne was covered in soot with swirls in her eyes.

"Oh man, oh well we're even anyways." Irina then picked up Dedenne and put her on the ground next to her. Irina took out another Pokéball. "Go, Vivillon!" and a Pokémon that looked like a butterfly, she was coloured in two shades of grey and had huge white wings

"Irina looks really elegant, when she battles…" Cameron said to himself without realising.

"Uh, Cameron, is that Pokémon from Kalos too."

"I would guess so." Suddenly Mike gasped and his hair fell over his right eye and rings developed around his eyes, he quickly made his hair look like Mike's hair style. He was observing Irina's wrist.

'So she has a Mega Ring. I must obtain it, before the others get here.' "Cameron, when this battle is over, I want you to ask Irina about her bracelet."

"Uh, okay but I can barely talk to her, without mixing up my words."

'Amateur.' Mal thought. "Okay how about this. You get her to show me her bracelet and I'll help you out with her."

"Really, you would."

"Of course, what kind of friend would I be, if I didn't help you with this?" 'This is too easy, all I have to do is keep Irina around, and love struck, Cameron won't notice a thing.'

"Vivillon use Stuggle Bug!" Vivllon flew towards Volcarona while covered in a red aura. A red energy wave spread to Volcarona and he took damage.

"Volcarona, use Heat Wave!" Volcarona blew flaming winds towards Vivillon.

"Vivillon dodge it!" and she flew to the side of the attack and avoided it. "Now use Sleep Powder!" Vivillon flew around Volcarona and released green spores from her wings and the spores landed on Volcarona and he fell to sleep.

"Oh no!"

"Vivillon use Hurricane!" Vivillon's wings glowed blue and blew winds at Volcarona and the Sun Pokémon flew back in his sleep, then a pebble hit his head and he suddenly woke up. "What! He's awake already."

"Volcarona use Fire Blast!" Volcarona blasted a five pointed fireball at Vivillon.

"Quick dodge it!" Vivillon easily dodged it. "You're going to have to do better than that."

"Then how do you like this. Volcarona, combine Hurricane and Fire Blast!" Volcarona's wings glowed white and then he blew gusts of wind in Vivillon's direction. Volcarona then blasted a Five pointed fire ball at Vivillon and it came at a faster speed and both attack hit Vivillon, there was a huge explosion and Vivillon fell to the ground with swirls replacing her eyes.

"Oh no this is looking bad." She said. "Vivillon return." 'Okay, time I finally get serious.' "Okay, Go Gardevoir!" and a white and green haired bipedal Pokémon flew out of the Pokéball. She looked like she was wearing a slim gown. She had red eyes and a red fin-like horn extending from her chest.

"A Gardevoir? No problem. Volcarona use Silver Wind!" Volcarona's wings glowed white and they flung silver crescents at Gardevoir.

"Quick use Protect!" a blue hemisphere surrounded Gardevoir and Silver Wind was blocked. "Gardevoir use Moonblast!" Gardevoir put her hands close together and a white orb was in between them, she flung the orb at Volcarona and it made contact. "Let finish this with Psychic!" Gardevoir's eyes glowed light blue and then Volcaron was surrounded in a blue outline and he was forced to the ground and couldn't move.

"Volcarona!"

"Now use Moonblast!" she blasted a white orb at Volcarona, while it was down. His eyes were replaced with swirls. "Now, we are even."

"I'll admit, you are very skilled, but now it's time to send out my ace. Nidoqueen, come on out!" Nidoqueen came out of the Pokéball. "Now use Poison Tail!" her tail glowed magenta and then flipped and the tail slammed into Gardevoir and she flew back.

"Gardevoir!" 'I never thought I would have to do this but it looks like the situation calls for it.' Gardevoir could read her thoughts and she simply nodded after she got up. "If you say so."

'Alright here it comes.' Mal thought.

She lifted her left arm and then pressed what looked like a button on her bracelet. Suddenly Gardevoir was covered in a light pink ball and an energy was surrounding it.

'What's happening to Gardevoir?'

The ball shattered and Gardevoir had a different appearance her whole body was white except for her hair, her gown was longer and wider, like a bridal gown. There were two horns on her chest and her arms were slightly thicker.

"Irina, what did you do to Gardervoir?"

"Oh, that? It's called Mega evolution, I'll explain it later, but I'll give you a demonstration. Gardevoir use Psychic!" her eyes glowed light blue and she outstretched her arm and Nidoqueen was surrounded in a light blue out line and she flew back at blitzing speed to the trees behind her and Nidoqueen crashed into a sea of trees until Zoey couldn't see her.

"Oh no!" she yelled and everyone including Sierra now ran to where Nidoqueen was and saw that she was thrown through several trees, and she had swirls in her eyes. "Nidoqueen are you okay?!" She nodded as she got up. "You did, your best. Return." And she was dragged back into her Pokéball.

Sierra picked up Dedenne again. "OOH I just want to eat you up." She said and Dedenne use Nuzzle on Sierra again and she passed out.

Irina began scratching the back of her head. "Guess I overdid it a little, hehehe." Gardevoir sweatdropped then she turned back to her regular form. Irina returned Gardevoir to her Pokeball.

'So that is Mega Evolution, I must get my hands on that Mega Ring.' Mal thought. "Hey Irina, mind if I see that quickly." Mal asked sounding like Mike.

She quickly put her hand over it. "Sorry, but this is very precious to me. I hope you understand."

"Of course I do." 'Damn girl, fine I'll just have to get her to gain 'Mike's' trust. And maybe crush Cameron's confidence. Hehehehe.' "Hehehe."

"Mike, what were you laughing at?" Zoey asked.

"Oh, I… remembered a funny joke. If I told you, you wouldn't get it." 'I guess I have to find a way to charm Irina into letting me see the Mega Ring, but trying to do that, while acting like this fool. Will not be easy.' Mal then put his arm around Irina's shoulder. "So I was wondering if well you and I could get dinner or something?"

Irina was blushing and this time couldn't hide it. "Wow. Uh… that is sweet of you to ask me but I have to find my friend before it gets dark."

"Oh, maybe another time."

"Sure." She left the group to go and look for her friend.

"You know what. I'm going to head to the Pokémon centre. Maybe have a little nap. I'll catch up with you two later." He then ran off.

Cameron was nothing short of surprised at "Mike's" actions and a little crushed as well. While Zoey was practically fuming.

"I thought Irina and I would get along great, but I guess I was wrong!"

"Why do you say that?"

"Isn't it obvious. She's trying to steal Mike from me…" Zoey blushed and then backed away a little and held her hands up in defence. "…Not that we are actually dating."

"It seems Mike is the one doing the flirting. Even when he promised..." Cameron sighed. "Have you noticed that Mike isn't acting like himself lately?"

"What do you mean?"

"During the battle he suddenly became interesting in Irina's bracelet…"

"So?"

"…Before she used it to Mega Evolve Gardevoir. Zoey, I have to tell you something but you have to promise not to tell Mike."

"Sure."

"Mike has multiple personality syndrome, I knew for a month now and helped him get… minor control of his personalities, but I've never seen him act this weird before."

"So all this time, he was hiding it from everyone. You think his behavior is related to his personalities?"

"I can count on it."

"We'll figure all this out tomorrow okay, I need to contact Noah and tell him Sierra is here with us."

The Zoey and Cameron left while Zoey was caring the unconscious Sierra on her back.

"Roserade use Magical Leaf, Chandelure use Inferno!" Roserade flung green glowing leaves at Duncan's Scrafty and Chandelure blasted purple flames towards Dusclops.

"Nice try, Dusclops use Shadow Sneak on Chandelure!" Dusclops extened his shadow and then a fist came out of it and punched Chandelure and he had swirls in his eyes. "Perfect, now Scrafty use High Jump Kick on Roserade!" Scrafty took the damage from the Magial Leaf and kneed the Bouquet Pokémon in the face and she flew back to the ginger haired girl with swirls as her eyes.

The girl sighed "Roserade, return. Chandelure, return."

"Oh about your friend last time I saw her she was at the Driftveil Drawbridge." Said Duncan

"Are you kidding me. If you were going to tell me anyway, why did you make me battle if you!?"

"You decided to battle me babe, you could have left." Duncan said with a smirk.

"Eww! You've wasted enough of my time." She ran off and was heading to the exit of the city but she bumped into a figure that was a little taller than her. "Okay, this is getting old." After she fell over, she looked up and saw the same person walk to her, she noticed that he had a Tepig on her shoulder.

"Need a hand, I have two." The person joked.

"Oh thanks." She reached out her hand and the boy grabbed it. "I guess I need to watch where I'm going huh."

"Oh no it was my fault, I was looking for someone and I wasn't looking."

"Thanks for the help, my name is Kelsey."

"I'm Gill and this is partner, Tepig."

"Anyway I need to find my friend, have you seen a girl with pink hair anywhere?"

"I think I saw her head to the Pokémon centre a minute ago."

"Thanks, Gill." She ran towards the Pokémon Centre.

"Hey wait up!" he yelled and he followed her.

-A-

Iris led Daniel to the wide spread of water that surrounded Nimbasa and Driftveil City.

"Okay, poofy girl. Can you tell me why we are here?" Daniel asked

"It's Iris you jerk!" she shouted. "I have a Pokémon that can help us get across."

"Okay, but that leads to my question. Why are you helping me?"

"Wait, do you hear that?"

"Okay, now you are just avoiding my questions."

"No! I hear voices." Iris walked over to a house which looked empty. She put her ear to the wall to hear what was going on inside.

"You just love eavesdropping don't you?" Daniel asked rhetorically.

"Shh."

Meanwhile inside Team Mutant were inside and Scott was eating gruel.

"How can you eat that crap?!" Michaela asked.

"Where I come from, gruel is a delicacy." Scott replied

"Yeah what's next, dirt?"

"Dirt is good for the body, my pappy told me it has nutrients…"

"I think I'm going to be sick!"

Then a figure came out of the shadows. "Enough chit-chat. We have a new mission."

"Find a way to get your Pokémon to Mega Evolve, you must have told us that countless times, besides, Mal you need a Mega Ring to mega evolve a Pokémon and the only way you can get one is if you get, Korrina in the Kalos region to give you one." Mel stated.

"You better be careful, Mel. You do not want to make me mad."

"Or what!?"

"Test me, and you'll see." They both began glaring at each other.

"Uh the plan?" Zorua reminded

"As soon as I get the Mega Ring. You got to the Desert Resort and I'll meet you there. Leave the heist and the rest to me."

"So we don't get to do anything?" Scott asked

"Precisely."

"What about, Mike?" Eva asked.

"Don't worry about him…hehehe. I'll have to hang onto Mike's Pokéballs for a while so the others don't get suspicious."

Outside Iris heard everything and gasped.

"Oh what could it possibly be?"

"Team Mutant, there up to something and that guy, Mike is in trouble." Said Iris.

Daniel fake yawned. "Oh sorry, I'm just expressing how much I care."

"This is serious! They have something planned."

"Yeah, so do I, I need to get to Driftveil City as soon as possible. Anything else is just troublesome."

"CAN YOU THINK OF ANYONE ELSE BUT YOURSELF, YOU LITTLE KID!"

Zorua busted out the door and saw the both of them. "We have intruders!" then the team came out of the small house.

"Dumb ass! Now you screwed us both!"

Mal walked outside and joined the others. "Ah, Daniel, and Iris."

"Wait, aren't you Mike?"

"I go by the name Mal now. The Mike you know is gone."

"Wait I can understand you knowing Daniel, but how do you know me?" Iris asked

"Y'know, Drayden still talks about you."

"Wha… how do you…"

"I make it my business to know. I can't allow you two to leave… unless it's in pieces."

"Bring it!" Daniel said.

"Very well. Weavile come out!" and a dark blue Pokémon with magenta features and claws for hands came out of the Pokéball.

Iris screamed and hid behind Daniel while shivering. "What's gotten into you?"

"Well, I'm training to become a Dragon master and Dragon types are weak to Ice types. Plus I hate the cold. So I'm scared of Ice Types, okay."

Daniel sighed and rolled his eyes. "First of all, you're not a Dragon type Pokémon. Second of all, Dragon type Pokémon, are weak to other Dragon type Pokémon which means your fear is irrational! So snap out of it!" She shook her head and stayed behind Daniel.

'And yet I'm stuck with her.'

"Fine I'll fight battle that Weavile, you big baby. Darmanitan come out, now!" and then he came out of the Pokéball.

"What are you waiting for? Help me out!" Mal commanded

"Right, Electabuzz come out!" Michaela yelled

"Magmar, you too!" said Mel

"Zubat, crush them!" said Scott

"Hoothoot, take them down." said Eva

"Iris! Help me out here!"

"Okay." she stood next to him and took out a Pokéball. "Come on out, Dragonair!" and a blue and white snake like dragon type came out of the Pokéball.

"Two against, five… I like those odds." said Daniel as he smirked.

"Let's see how long you'll be smiling like that?" said Mal

-A-

Somewhere, Mike woke up and it looked like he was inside his head. "Where am I?" he asked himself and he saw that there was a chain on his right leg. "No!" He saw the chain was tied around boulder that was in the shape of Mal's head. "NOOOOOO!" Mal's laugh is heard in the background

-A-

What has happened to Mike? Will Mal be able to steal Irina's Mega Ring or will Daniel and Iris stop him and Team Mutant in their tracks? Find out next time.

A/N: Irina and Kelsey were created by Madame Rodoshe. And I'd like to thank Madame Rodoshe for giving me the ideas needed to write this chapter.
