I Don't Own Pokemon


Leaving the Pokemon Center at a decently early hour the next day, I, thankfully, didn't have to deal with a rouge landorus coming out of no where. While such an event I'm sure could be an amazing representation of my life nowadays, like I said it didn't happen which is nice. Currently I was walking down the road, I only had two Pokemon out, still doing my thing about having some one on one talks with some of my team, right now it was Vaporeon who is out.

"Sir, why do you let Zekrom stay around, after when we all met on such a bad start?" It had been a little while since either of us had talked, which was understandable, neither of us were very talkative on our own, being together didn't really help that. So I was decently surprised by her question, of course not to incredibly so, most of the team has asked that question at one point or another, with some different wording of course, so thankfully I already had an answer ready to use.

"Bad starts don't really effect me much when it comes to getting to know someone, so while I'm not exactly happy about how we all met each other, in fact I'm still quite annoyed and angry at Zekrom for what they did, that doesn't mean I'm going to hold it over them I don't expect you or anyone on the team to agree with me on that, you all have different ways of thinking besides mine.

Of course, if you all don't want them to stay around, then Zekrom can go off and do whatever, I don't really care much for them to join the team or not, you all are more than enough for me, and I would hate for you or anyone else to be uncomfortable in their presence. But what I will ask is for you to give them a chance at least, this isn't the first time that you or another on the team has lost a battle or gotten hurt and I've made sure that no one has harbored any ill-will to those that we lost against"

The pokespeech was mostly for her benefit, she like's this language more than the human ones, which is a little saddening that she still hasn't gotten fully over her fear of humans, for it to show up in such a small thing like language preference, but it is small enough that I don't mind. And she has made a lot of progress, so it was a fair trade. After a few moments she spoke up again.

"I'll try Sir, but I don't think I'm as good as you in forgiving them, I wouldn't mind as much if it was just me but they hurt everyone, and that doesn't sit well with me" I frowned a little at that but held off instantly telling her not to devalue herself by saying that her getting hurt wasn't as bad as the others, but I refrained and said what I wanted in a batter and not as bunt way.

"I'm not as good as you think Vaporeon, most of you are probably a better Pokemon than me, it's just that I'm not the best with grudges. Still, don't think I've forgiven them either, they still have a long way to go before I really forgive Zekrom. They hurt you, and everyone else, and I don't think I will ever forgive anyone for that, but I can put that on the back burner and not let it effect my emotions. So don't worry about feeling bad for not being able to forgive them, all I'm asking is that you try, and that will be more than enough for me"

She nodded, but didn't exactly seem pleased with me saying I wasn't as good or nice as her or the others. But it's true, she really shouldn't put me on a pedestal of any kind, I'm probably not a very good role model to have. But I don't think I could say anything to really sway her from that notion. So I didn't bother with saying anything more, and it seemed that she wasn't going to either. Now that her question was answered, it seems we'll be going back into comfortable silence.


It turns out I was a lot closer to Undella than I thought I was, as after a few hours, during which I reached the coastline, something Vaporeon really enjoyed, jumping and disappearing into the water for a bit before reforming her body so I could see it at least. From there I just stayed next to the coast so my Water Fox could have some fun in the ocean.

Of course she had to get out after a while when we reached the town, though I could tells she had a good bit of fun. At this point most of my team of out expect for some of the big ones, namely Zekrom, which they thankfully understood the attention that their presence would bring on us. Currently as well my Flying types were up a long way in the air, flying around each other, with Pidgeot enjoying moving around at his higher speeds, while Charizard was basking in the heat from the Sun.

Luxray was currently being a ride for Vaporeon, Servine, and Riolu, with Lycanroc walking next to him having a conversation with them all as well. Mismagius was currently out of my shadow floating around between those five and myself, while also floating off every now and again looking at random stuff in the smallish sized town. Most of the humans around here also had their Pokemon out, and I'm like forty percent sure that some of them are even wild so, if someone gets annoyed at me then well to bad.

This is my final stop in Unova, so I'm going to enjoy it and let my team have some fun by not having to worry about being stuck in there pokeballs because cities and towns are usually overly crowded. Thankfully this town wasn't as bad, mostly because it doesn't get as many tourist until around the middle of Summer, and right now it's only starting to be the middle of Spring. Though my thoughts were interrupted when I heard Vaporeon call out to me.

"Sir?" Looking over to where most of my team was, I blinked as I looked at basically all of them looked at me with varying looks of 'Can we? Please!'. Looking up past them, I blinked again as I looked at a small ice cream parlor, looking back down at the looks I was getting. I held out for a solid three seconds before laughing lightly before nodding to them and changed the direction we were going in.

"Of course we can" Their faces light up like crazy, which made a smile tug up on my face, though I did make sure to let everyone that hasn't had this before to ask me about flavor choices and such, so I could make sure they would like it as I've gotten very acquainted with my team's preferred tastes of food. The ones that hasn't had any is mostly just the newer Pokemon, as I actually got them to try it as a treat after the Indigo League, the results of which were just adorable watching them all try it.

And of course I also made sure to make sure that place did in fact serve ice cream made of stuff that Pokemon can easily digest. I wasn't going to give them anything that could make them sick, even. Though I have to give the place props, considering the fact that it seems that they knew about the fact that Pokemon trainers would also want to get something for there Pokemon.

The place actually had a whole section specifically for Pokemon, made from all natural ingredients and a list of berries used just to make sure, that everyone knew what was going into the Pokemon's body. Something which I appreciate a good deal, so with that I got everyone's order most of which were the same, though it took a minute to get my Flying types to come down for them to tell me, as they didn't really notice we had stopped for a bit while also getting some close guesses as to what Servine and Riolu would like.

Sadly, while the place, apparently named 'Undella's Ice Cream Delights', made some ice cream specifically made for Pokemon, they, for some reason, weren't allowed in the parlor, which I think is kind of hypocritical but I didn't really mind that much, but went with it as well as I could. As I technically wasn't allowed in the place either but to be fair, I don't believe I've ever bothered with the notion that I had to follow something like this, so it wasn't like this was a personal attack against the place.

Ordering what I wanted for my team, while guessing slightly as to what Zekrom would want, as I didn't want to deal with a possible riot to ask them, before then getting one for myself, just a flavor that was basically the equivalent to vanilla, because while I'm like ice cream, I'm not the biggest fan of all the fancy flavors, I just don't really get it, and I have a low tolerance to stuff that is overly sweet. After placing it in though, I noted that a fair number of people that were in the parlor as well were looking at something.

I'm annoyingly getting use to it at this point to being looked at, but it wasn't in my direction this time, which I was kind of glad about to be honest, though of course some people still noticed me as well, but for once I wasn't the most stared at person in the room. Curiosity was basically the only reason why I turned and looked at what or who everyone was looking at.

Glancing over to one of the corners, I noted that an older man with spiky orange hair and a woman with light blond hair were having a conversation, while eating ice cream. Oh joy, three Champions walk into an ice cream, I wonder if that joke has ever been told before. Whatever, Alder and Cynthia can talk about whatever they want, I have no intention of doing anything other than relax for once in my life with some ice cream for me and my team.

Thankfully, my order came back decently fast, handing over my card, I looked at the ten cups of ice cream and realized that I have no way to carry them all, unless I suddenly mastered control over my equilibrium that is, and I don't believe that is going to happen. After a second, I glanced around at the people around me, before deciding why not, it's not like I'm clumsy enough to mess up a simple slide of hand thing like this.

Reaching down to my side, I opened my bag up and put my hand in it, focusing a small bit, I illusioned up a wide tray. Pulling it out, while acting like I had it on me all along, I placed it on the counter ignoring the surprised look the man behind the register was giving the tray. As I placed the cups on before getting handed back my card, while also signing a receipt.

With that all done, I lifted the tray up on one hand, and acted like a waiter as I turned and walked out the door without to many problems. Once I got by my team who had taken to staying off to the side a little while they all talked to each other, I began to pass out the cups to those that could hold them. So Mismagius, Lycanroc, Servine, and Riolu. Before telling all them that we would find a spot to pass the rest out, and to not start eating without the rest. Of course before I could do this I was interrupted as a female voice called out behind me.

"Excuse me, Sir, I have a question for you" I course, was mature enough to roll my eyes in a go figure motion before I turned to look at whoever had recognized me. I wasn't expecting though to be looking at the two Champions from before on the other hand. I held back an annoyed sigh, as I realized, of course I wouldn't escape this, still, I just put on a fake smile and asked Cynthia, the one that much more than likely called out to me.

"Okay, you can ask I guess, not much I could do to stop you" She just looked at me for a second, with a look in her eyes that I couldn't really understand, which is interesting, as while I'm not always right, I'm fairly good at reading expressions. Like Alder, who was next to her, who looked confused as to why she was interested in asking me a question, which meant this was a sudden decision on her part. The she asked her question.

"Are you a Pokemon?" Ok, I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting that.


Yeah, cliff hanger because reasons, I mean it's not a really tense one to be fair like some of the others I've done, but I think this is still sudden enough that it warrants to be called one. Also Kyu is now in Undella Town, so there's that which is neat, the whole ice cream thing I thought was just fun, not to mention, depending on how you image it, bloody adorable as well. Anyway, that's all I have to add, so, See ya.
