The Mew Tales

by Tashojiri

The story of how Mewtwo came to be created and what happened afterwards I wrote this before Mewtwo Strikes Back so it's a different story to the movie . Also attempts to explain many of the mysteries of Pokémon. Discontinued.

'Nine! Nine!' says Ninetales, turning to its master. Chris looks worridly at the pokemon that Ninetales has found. It is lying on its side with its eyes closed, and it has a long cut across its left eye and another down its side.

'It's in really bad shape,' thinks Chris. 'I don't think I'll be able to help it.'

Chris reaches out a hand and touches the Charmeleon. It stirs slightly but doesn't open its eyes. The pokemon is barely breathing.

'I'll have to do something about it,' says Chris with a sigh. Ninetales watches as Chris scoops the unconscious pokemon up in his arms. It notices that the Charmeleon's tail flame is a lot smaller than it should be. Ninetales, being a fire pokemon, knows what this means.

'Nine! Nine!' it barks to Chris.

'Be quiet, Ninetales,' says Chris. He understands that his pokemon is worried, but all that is on his mind right now is helping the Charmeleon. He starts walking, carrying the heavy creature in his arms.
