The Dark Pikachu's Secret
By Tsunami Shocker

"What? Ash Ketchum's Pikachu says Ash's name as
Pikapi? And this one calls me the same thing?!!" Ray
was shocked (NOT literally.).
"Yes, Ray. I know so." Oak replied.
"Well, I better be going." Ray told him.
"Farewell! Oh, wait, you need your Pokedex and
pokeballs! Here you are." He handed them to Ray.
Ray looked at the Pokedex and thought that it looked
a little old.
"Um, Professor?" Ray asked uncertainly.
"Yes, Ray?" the Professor answered as he blew
away some of his brown hair with an upturned lip.
"This Pokedex looks kinda...well, old." Ray stated.
"Oh, that's alright. It used to belong to an old trainer
that already finished their Pokedex, so they returned it
to me and I erased all the information for a new
trainer." Oak replied matter-of-factly.
"Um, ookaaay." Ray didn't quite understand, but it
was something like a hand me down.
"Bye, Ray! See you in the League!" Ray wondered
what that was supposed to mean since Gary Oak was
the father of Daniel Oak. He thought that Gary would
be cheering for Daniel, not him.
"Bye, Oak!" Ray called, then rushed to go find Sky.

"SKY! Sky! Hey, Sky." Ray struggled to catch his
breath.
"Did you get a Pokemon?" she asked curiously.
"Yep. But it was so weird." he held up a pokeball.
"What's weird?" Sky asked, but then all of a sudden
the ball in his hand started to shake. Then it popped
open and the Dark Pikachu with blue eyes
materialized in front of them.
"Wa?" Sky stammered in the way her father used to.
"That is the weird part. I got a Dark Pikachu." Ray
answered her as she gaped at the little black
creature.
