Chapter 2: The Dragon Trainer Awakens

"Talk" When Issei talks or thinks

"Talk/Think" When Ddraig or a Pokémon talks

Issei opens his eyes and looks around his 'home' before seeing a backpack on his desk along with a letter addressed to him. "I bet this is from Arceus. Still it was nice of her to give me a home and not only that but she gave me some money to start off with. But that's later, for now let's see what she wants?" Issei tears open the envelope and pulls out the letter.

"Dear Issei,

If you are reading this, then you found the backpack on your new desk. Inside the backpack, you will find all of the essentials you will need such as potions, pokefood, Pokeballs, your Pokédex, and camping supplies. Yes, I know you enjoy camping so much so I thought of giving you an opportunity to bond with your Pokémon on the road.

Now let's get to the main reason for the letter. I wanted to explain the powers that I bestowed upon you. Just know, no one has ever received a blessing from myself or any other legendary. You were given three gifts that I believe suit your personality. The first one is similar to your Heartlingual ability, you know reading peoples hearts, well now you can read Pokémon's hearts and understand what they are saying.

The second gift is the ability to copy a Pokémon's move or ability. In order to use this power you must catch a Pokémon and have the Boosted Gear analyze the Pokémon's moves and abilities which will allow you to use them and unlock new Balance Breaker forms. I thought you would like to train with a little more umph' as you humans would say.

Now before I get to the final gift, I know your still hurting from their words but know that they are not here and will not hurt you. There are many women here who would love you for being yourself so don't close off your kind heart it's what makes you Issei. Now, the final gift is Blessing. This will allow you to give your Pokémon a human form but it can only work if you give them a name. When a Pokémon is given a nickname they can become stronger as a human. Not only that but if the human Pokémon trains while being a human, all of their training is transferred to the Pokémon body.

Now that's all I can say so go my trainer become stronger, find friends who will stay at your side, protect others and help them in need, but most importantly never lose your heart. You will find love again. I know it you are destined for great things so no matter how tall the mountain is remember to keep climbing to the top and reach the goal.

Sincerely, Arceus.

P.S. This note will burn to ash in three ... two ... one.

The note in Issei's hand burned to ash and disappeared into the wind. "Well that happened, but still copying a Pokémon's abilities and giving them a human form that sounds too good to be true. Don't you think Ddraig?"

The gauntlet appeared and glowed as it spoke. "Well we won't know unless we try? And I do believe she is telling the truth, personally I trust her because one, she listened to you and didn't force you to do anything unlike the Gremory brat who never asked for anyone's opinion. Two, she actually explained everything that she wanted from you unlike the brat who left you in the dark and never bothered to teach you about the Moonlit world."

Issei thought back and what Ddraig said was true. Rias and the others at first never tried to help him improve physically or mentally. He was winging everything at first and it was only until after Riser did he actually receive training. He shook his head to be rid of those thoughts, he was in a new world and had a fresh start and there was no way in hell was he going to mess it up.

Issei grabbed his bag and brought out his Pokédex, (It will be the Unova Regions version), put it inside of his pocket for safekeeping. "Alright backpack check, Tent check, food check, house key check. That's everything off to Professor Oaks lab.

Ten Minutes Later

Issei arrived at the lab and was about to walk in the door were it not for the arrogant snot nosed brat Gary Oak, the grandson of Oak. Gary walked outside and saw Issei before scoffing at him before saying "Let me guess your here for your first Pokémon, well to bad for you I got the best one of them all." Issei scoffed before saying "Really, who?" Gary scoffs back. "Who do you think Squirtle. The strongest starter besides that overgrown vegetable and puny fire lizard. I got my hands on a real champ. Well see ya later loser, got some Pokémon to catch." Gary says as he gets in his car and speeds off in the distance.

Issei just shrugged before walking into the lab where Oak greets him with a warm smile in his face. "Issei! It's good to see you now as you know I don't have Squirtle anymore since Gary chose him but I still have these two lovely girls Bulbasaur and Charmander."

Issei looks at both of them before saying "Professor would it be okay if I took them both with me? I know I can only receive one but I think Bulbasaur and Charmander really want to come with me." Issei bows to him before saying "Please let me take both of them with me!" His head was down until Oak puts a hand on his shoulder before calming Issei down. "I figured you would ask that and I wanted to give you both of them because the third trainer who was suppose to come here decided that she no longer wanted to be a trainer she wished to become a coordinator instead. So to answer you question, yes you can have them both."

Issei is so excited that he looks at both of them and could see the sparkles in their eyes as they were happy to go with him. "Alright from here on out we're not just Trainer and Pokémon. We're family and that means we always look out for each other no matter what so you two in?" Issei asks as he holds out his arms for them.

Both of them were happy and exited to be with a trainer who would actually care for them. "Bulba" "Char" they said to each other before jumping into his arms. Oak looks at the scene and ponders a bit of how this trainer was a gem in the rough just waiting to show it's shine to the world.

"Alright you three, here are their Pokeballs and have fun and remember your team is always with you no matter what." Oak says with a smile as he waves them off. Issei walks on Route One and finds a secluded spot for fishing before calling out his two partners. Bulbasaur sits on his lap while Charmander sits on his shoulder, Issei absentmindedly started to pet them and show them love until he remembered the Blessing power he had from Arceus. "Hey, would you guys mind if I named you so it would be easier to separate you from the others?"

They looked at each other before nodding a yes that they would love nicknames. "Alright let's do this." Turns to Charmander "Your a dragon and despite that you're gentle to others. How about Bloom. Is that alright with you?" Charmander nods rapidly and Bulbasaur calls out to Issei so she could get her name. "Don't worry I didn't forget you. Let's see you control flowers and nature. How about Flora, it means flowers and nature?" Bulbasaur nods her head and before any of them knew it both of them were glowing gold before they started to take on a more feminine form. When they stopped glowing before Issei stood two girls: one had grass green hair, a lime green dress with dark green spots, and on her back you could see the bulb that all Bulbasaurs have on their backs. The second one had short orange hair, a white shirt with cacky overalls, if you looked carefully you could see her tail that still had its flame around her waist like a belt.

Both of them looked scared until they saw Issei and they next thing he knew there were two girls crying on his chest saying "Master Issei what is this?" "Master what happened to us?" "How did giving us a name do this?" They would've continued were it not for Issei rubbing their backs softly and kissing their foreheads before they eventually settled down. After they calmed down, Issei explained his power that he received from Arceus in a dream and how he rested to see if it worked and sure enough it did. Bloom and Flora were surprised but then had thoughts of being with their Master as a person, going on dates, training, and battling together, combined with mating.

And at that moment, they were blushing red like tomatoes and were brought back to reality as Issei told them when it was just them they could be human but in the city they had to either act human or be in their Pokeballs. They agreed to the terms before asking if they could train with him; Issei was actually looking forward to the idea of training with them but before doing so he asked what their moves were. Bloom started saying her moves "My moves right now are Scratch, Growl, Ember, and Dragon Rage." Flora took her place and started "My moves are Tackle, Leer, Leech Seed, and Sleep Powder." Issei was impressed by some of their moves before going over to Flora and started to pat her head and copy her moves and powers before doing the same to Bloom who was blushing from the attention. Afterwards, they prepared themselves for a fun training session while getting used to their new bodies.

In the evening

Issei has his sleeping bag out and was testing out how to use the moves and found something interesting about the copy ability. If any of his Pokémon learned a new move he would automatically receive that move to his arsenal as well. Right now Flora and Bloom were knocked out and sleeping in the sleeping bag as well before he crawled in and as if second nature they clinged to him and snuggled next to him. He smiles to himself because he could feel their emotions weeping into him making him very happy indeed.

Unknown to the three, there were a few Pokémon observing them throughout the night. And in Saffron City, there was a young woman who had dark green hair in a long style and glowing pink eyes. She stared out the window and looked at the stars while saying to herself "Please come soon my Emperor. This maiden shall heal your heart."

Alright so what do you think pretty good huh. Review, like, hate, whatev. I'll post the next chapter as soon as possible.
