A/N: I forgot to say in the last chapter-I DO NOT OWN POKEMON!!!  And I will do what Animorph people do when they are in morph: means Pokemon are talking.

Chapter 2

            I'm not the Pokemon who has been here the longest, nor the Pokemon who has been here the shortest.  I came in the middle of everything.  My trainer left me here.

            I don't remember him, or was it a her.  I don't remember what it looks like.  I don't care about it.  I know that I never what to see it again.  It left me in this horrible town named Crimson.  It left me to the scientists.  It hates me.  It never even gave me a name.  That's why I gave myself a name.

I am a weak Magikarp.  My trainer thought I was a weak Magikarp.  I hear all Magikarp are weak, but the water Pokemon, and some land Pokemon have said that a Magikarp in every generation will become the ultimate Pokemon.  The last generation was a female Magikarp named Sea Sera.  She, as a fish, was able to become part land Pokemon too.  Amazing.

I am a male.  Sea Sera is a female name.  I didn't know what to call me at first, but once I came to this stuffed up lab I made some friends, who named themselves too.

Death Flight- He is a Doduo, and, well, Doduo's have more than one head, so in the end of all arguments, Death Flight became his name.  He (they) is quite lazy.  I guess trainers don't like lazy Pokemon.

Dreamer- She's a Nidoran, who dreams too much.  Always spacing out dreaming about winning a battle, when she's actually losing it.  So, she earned the nickname Dreamer, but although she dreams a little too much she's also very intelligent.

Huh- Huh is a Slowpoke.  He has is a lazy, average, Slowpoke.  Although, I recommend not getting him mad, he freaks!  Huh got him nickname, because when you try to talk to him he says "Huh?"

Eevee- She has no nickname, because she hasn't evolved yet.  Right now, her temporary nickname is Vee.  Vee has too much pride for her own good.  Technically, she's the leader of all of us.

I remember when I first met my friends and they gave me a name.  A real name.  The Testers, as the Pokemon call them, thought that since a strange sickness was going around to let us go "outside."  It wasn't outside, of course.  It was just a big empty glass room with grass, dirt, flowers, and water.  I was new then, and just swimming around when Huh came over with Vee and Dreamer (Death Flight came a little after.)

Look, it's a new guy! Huh shouted looking kinda dopey like he was high on something.

You mean fish. Vee corrected.  Hi!  My name is Vee.  That's my temporary nickname, until I know what I'm going to evolve into.  She sounded like she was leader of the group.  That's Dreamer and that's Huh.

I laughed.  'Huh'?  That's funny!

Nothing is funny 'bout my name! he sneered and whacked the water with his tail, but missed me.

Huh, please, chill. Dreamer spoke up for the first time.  She most likely was in La-La-Land again.  What's your name?

Mine? I asked.

Yeah, who else am I talking too? Dreamer said.

I don't have a name.

Really?  I guess we'll have to give you one.  Of course, once we give you a name you have to be part of our group. Vee said.

Throw the names at me.

Well, we need to know stuff about you. Huh said.

My trainer left me.  I'm a weak Magikarp.  Did you ever hear the story about the mighty Magikarp in every generation?  I supposed starting conversation was going to get me a name.  They started to sit or lay down on the grass at the edge of the water.

Nope. Huh said.

I explained about the Magikarp, and about Sea Sera as well.  …Sea Sera evolved into a Gyarados and is now a sprit that protects all of Earth.

So, in other words, all the 'mighty Magikarp' are now protectors of Earth? Dreamer asked.  She seemed to be the only one really listening.

No, only the ones who become Gyarados.  Which means only a few.

It seems to be enough information. Vee said.  Group Huddle!

They got into a huddle, or what seemed to be a huddle.  Huh was on his back, Dreamer was looking at the grass, and Vee was the only one talking, but in to end all three nodded their heads.

I was eager to know what my name would be.  I tried not to look too excited.

Your name will be Water Shadow. Dreamer said, and there was my answer.  Water Shadow.
