A/N: Here is the next chapter! BIG ANNOUNCEMENT AT THE END…


The Hunter Battleship remained docked at Ranger HQ, attached with the docking clamps. As the maintenance work for the other zords have begun, JT was sighing as he was looking at the damaged zords, specifically Relic Hunter Zords 6 through 10.

"They really did it…," said JT, sighing as he spun in his chair, "This is worse than trying to fix Dino Zords."

He banged his head on the desk as he looked at the screen, "This could take months to repair all fourteen of them!"

He turned around as he looked at his Dino Gem, "I wish having super brains were better than strength at this point."

He turned around as he heard the door open. JT turned in his chair as Zander walked over. He was just at the gym in the battleship, seeing a towel wrapped around his blue tank top with black shorts as he was looking at JT, "You seem frustrated."

"You bet. Ray and I have been trying to figure this out and we have no idea how to fix your zords. It's almost like the Magma Bot ripped out the whole computer core…"

"Computer core?" asked Zander.

"Yeah…," said JT, pulling up the blueprints, "You see, when the zords combine together, there is a computer core that will operate all of the zords together… and when the Magma Bot destroyed the zords, the computers core are damaged beyond repair."

"So, you mean to tell me we need three new computer cores?" asked Zander.

"Yup. How? I don't know," said JT, sighing, "Please don't total our battleship… it could be the only ship you have left."

Zander placed his hand on his chin as he looked up, "Wait. I heard about a certain artifact while I was in Pacificdalog. It's still there, but Max and Jack don't know about it."

"How did you hear about it?" asked JT, looking at Zander. The blue ranger shrugged as he turned to him, "I was at the Pokémon Center with Rachel and we were talking about things. Urara told me that she could overhear a few scientists talking about a very unique computer."

"Very unique?" asked JT.

"Very," said Zander, "It's called the Genesect Motherboard… or CPU. It can duplicate and fix all problems within damaged computer cores… supposedly they are selling it to someone."

"Who?" asked JT.

"Well, don't know. But, I wonder…" said Zander.

JT grinned as he turned to the zords, "Well, if you can get the artifact, I can repair the zords faster."

Zander grinned as he turned around. He then saw the doors open, "I have to talk with Urara first. She's the scientist who probably knows more about this than I do."

"All the same," said JT.


Ten minutes later…

"Absolutely not!" Urara said, looking at Zander. Zander looked at Urara as the other rangers were sitting in the briefing room at Ranger HQ. Max and Jack stood there with confusion as Urara marched toward the screen. The rangers were surprised as they looked at the artifact. It was a purple cube with lime green stripes and swirly designs, "That is a legendary artifact from the Pokémon Genesect!"

"Urara, this could be opportunity to use the CPU to revive the zords at a faster rate," said Zander, looking at JT, "JT and Ray are really struggling without the computer cores. Even if they extract from other Megazords from the past, it's going to take them forever to fix them."

"I think Zander has a valid point," said Cedric, "We can't transform into legendary Pokémon and then they repair themselves. If Zander said this is true, then I would like to engage on this mission."

Urara turned around as she looked at them, "I did more research on it though."

She looked over, seeing her Furfrou walk over with a green clipboard in her hand. Picking up the clipboard, she looked at her notes as she turned to them, "According to the article and what I heard, it is dangerous if used with modern technology. Now, I'm a Pokémon Biologist in training, not an engineer… but its like blood transfusions. We don't even know if its going to match the core to do the correct repairs."

"So… we are just going to ignore this one?" asked Zander.

"Well…," said Urara, looking at Zander and Cedric, "We kind of can't."

Max turned around as he looked, "What do you mean?"

"Well… here's the tea," said Urara, pulling up as she grabbed a chair. Sitting down, she folded her hands on the table, "While you were getting dressed and we were heading back in the Battleship, I heard a few scientists talking about securing at Slateport City's Warehouse. There is going to be a deal going on to trade the computer core for cash… and possibly Pokémon. I figured it would be best to let the authorities handle it. But-."

Seb interrupted and finished her sentence, "Because we don't exactly know if the Weather Syndicate is behind it, it would make sense to investigate it anyway."

Urara nodded, "Yep! Who knew five rangers with attitude would turn into cops looking for a bust."

Seb turned around as he looked at Urara, grabbing a blue roll of paper from behind, "Well, lucky for you, we managed to pull up the warehouse blueprints and other things. We are going to figure out when the deal is going down."

Seb pulled a blueprint out as he looked at the others, "Here is the office building and here is the warehouse. We should probably investigate and see when they are going to make that deal. We also need to figure if its Team Rocket making the deal or the Weather Syndicate making a deal. If it's Team Rocket, we can probably stir something… but obviously we know what to do if it's the other option."

"Right," said Urara, "So… what were you thinking?"

"Lamar," said Seb, looking at him. Lamar nodded as he turned to him. This time, without bandages and somewhat cuts that were healing from last battle, "Do you feel up to it?"

"Greninja and I can handle it," said Lamar, "What do you want me to do?"

"Sneak in and figure it out," said Seb.

"Would be it easier to teleport?" asked Grace.

Seb shook his head, "No… that's too easy. Especially when we don't really know how to get in… unless…"

"Lamar goes through the water pipes," said Urara.

Seb nodded as he turned around. Lamar nodded as he looked at them. Seb grabbed the blueprints as he turned to Max, "We're using the ship."

"Don't blow it up," said Max.

The rangers got up from their seats and started walking toward the exit. As the doors closed behind them, Lamar grabbed his black backpack along the way. Rachel turned around as he was looking at the gear, "Are you sure you can do this?"

"Yeah," said Lamar, "It's not everyday I get to train with Greninja in the ocean and doing ninja things. Pokémon bonding."

Chapter 37: The Ultimate Computer


The Hunter Battleship was heading straight through the hard currents of Route 134, pushing through the rangers held on in the bridge as it continued to dive straight through.

"How long until we get to Slateport?" asked Seb.

"Approximately five minutes," said Zander, "Especially with the current."

Urara turned around as she looked at the warehouse, "I just noticed that the warehouse has sensors to detect when a ship comes in. We probably don't want to be seen."

Seb nodded as he felt the turbulence stop. Immediately, blue and red arrows appeared on the screen, showing the warehouse.

"Zander, lay a course in the warehouse at minimum wake. Let's not disturb our guests, dive when ready," said Seb.

Zander nodded as he pressed the button to slow down and the dive button. As the lights turned blue with the "Dive" words blaring out on the bridge, the Hunter Battleship went underwater, treading close to the warehouse. Zander got the Battleship to a full stop. Seb turned around as he saw Lamar step on the bridge. He wore a black scuba suit with a blue tank attached. He also had goggles with green fins.

"Ready, Seb," said Lamar.

Seb nodded as he got out of his chair, "Zander, put the parking brakes on."

As Seb closed the door, Lamar nodded as they were going down the elevator one floor. As the floor opened, Lamar was surprised as he was seeing all of the energy that was heading to the weapons supply. Seb turned around as Lamar was walking toward one of the entry tubes.

"We are going to launch you out in a torpedo tube. Once you find the pipeline, you and Greninja are going to go through that pipeline, and you are going to the director's office. Place a green device in the ceiling and then leave… that's all. We will listen in from the Battleship. Then, get out fast," said Seb, turning to Lamar.

Lamar nodded, "Understood."

Immediately, Lamar climbed up the ladder and into one of the torpedo tubes. Seb closed it tight and pressed the red button. Lamar took deep breaths as water filled up the whole entire tube. Seb turned around as he noticed the tube full. Pressing the white button, Lamar was launched out of the Battleship, heading toward the pipe, which attached to the warehouse. Lamar flew through as he managed to see an opening after two minutes of seeing nothing but darkness when we entered the pipe. As he lifted his head, his eyes popped up as he saw a few Dracos Grunts walking around in sailor costumes.

"Dracos…," he whispered, sinking. Sneaking around, he managed to get around the Draco Grunts as he landed softly. Pressing a blue button on his Relic Detector, the scuba gear disappeared in a flash of light. Looking up, he released Greninja from his Poké Ball. Greninja nodded as Lamar and him started climbing the walls, heading into a vent. Landing in the vent, Lamar noticed it was a little tight to maneuver. He looked at his green watch, seeing the blueprint. Pointing, Greninja nodded as they silently tip-toed across the ventilation system.

Looking through, Lamar took out a flashlight, examining the vents. Crawling, he managed to hear a few things as he went over to a light in the floor. Greninja slowly nodded as it began to put its ear close to the bar. Greninja nodded as Lamar overheard.

"… Darcie, its good to see you!" shouted one of them, "Are we excited?'

Lamar reached into his pocket, revealing a Spinarak plush toy device. He pulled a silver antennae out of the top and pressed the red button on the bottom. Immediately, Lamar took a piece of string and wrapped around the device. Greninja took the device and hung it through the string, hanging it on the vent. Lamar nodded as Greninja and him started sneaking back through the way they came. As they got to the exit, Greninja went to touch the grate, only for an electrocution to occur.

"Greninja!" shouted Lamar, "Shit…"

As Greninja started wobbling, Lamar took his Poké Ball, returning it. As Lamar kicked the vent open, he hopped down as he landed on the docking port. Looking up, the Draco Grunts went to fight. Lamar threw a punch at one of them and then did a spinning hook kick, hurting one of them in the process. He grabbed one of their weapons and pulled the trigger. Multiple bullets rang out as the Draco Grunts landed on the ground. Throwing the gun down, Lamar jumped through landing in the water, swimming towards the dark hole in the pipeline, he dodged the bullets that were going through the water. Lamar reached for his Relic Detector as he pressed a blue button. In a flash of light, the scuba gear magically appeared. Swimming through the waves, he managed to find the current as he popped out of the warehouse pipeline, heading toward the ship. Lamar swam through as he managed to find the front of the Battleship. As he got to the top of the ship, he saw a number pad on the lock. Pressing 3 buttons, the lock opened as a door popped open, Lamar was sucked through as the door closed. Lamar landed in a glass capsule as the waters receded. Opening the door, Lamar stepped out as his scuba gear was hung up. Seb stood there as Lamar took a deep breath, "Seb, that was very close!"

"You almost blew your cover man… what happened?" asked Seb.

"Greninja knocked down an electrified vent, which stirred some Draco Grunts," said Lamar, "But, no one knew it was me."

"It's okay," said Seb, walking with him as he got to the bridge, "They have explained the plan."

As the doors opened, Lamar walked to the bridge as the team turned around. Seb turned around as he spoke with Rachel, who turned around, "It looks like Darcie's voice. They were talking about making a deal for real."

"Great," said Seb, turning to the team, "So, that means we are going to split into two different groups. Zander, Grace and Urara, you will be sailors in the shipyard disguised, seeing that they will be there. Cedric, Rachel and Lamar, you are going to bust them at the warehouse."

"What about you?" asked Grace.

"I will remain on standby," said Seb, sitting down as he looked at Grace.

"With all due respect," said Rachel, "Why?"

Seb turned around as he looked at Rachel, "Why?"

Rachel looked at him as Seb nodded slowly. He stood up from the chair as he turned to Zander, "Zander, find a place where we won't be detected and dock there. Everyone else, prepare to secure and depart the ship."

As he walked over, Rachel stopped as Seb snuck up close, "I will talk to you in private."

Rachel nodded slowly as she turned to Lamar and Cedric, who were securing. Not even noticing, Rachel walked over toward the briefing room, which was to the left of the bridge.


Meanwhile…

Darcie grinned as she looked at the sailors. The sailors were wearing black and blue patterns with green and red scarves. Each one carried a Pelipper, a Machoke or a Tentacruel. Darcie grinned as she was wearing black glasses and a green business suit with a black t-shirt and brown shoes. She walked over as she was showing the computer.

"This wonderful Genesect CPU is going to help you with your ships. It will even help your criminal activity," said Darcie, "Team…."

"We haven't decided yet…" one of them said, "But, we were part of Team Aqua before all of that happened."

"Well, using this computer… you will be able to even beat Archie at his own game. You could restart and who knows… beat Team Rocket, Galactic, etc." said Darcie.

"We will talk," the leader said. Darcie grinned as she nodded. Placing the covered item, she walked over as she headed toward the main hall. Opening the door, Jake turned around as he looked at them, "What was the offer?"

"400,000 Pokédollars," Darcie responded.

"Wow…," said Jake, "I don't approve."

"But, with that much money, we can build on the technology," said Darcie.

"Why don't we just use it?" asked Jake.

"Because we have the golden eggs courtesy of Archie," said Silva, looking at Darcie. He grinned as he folded his hands, "Sadly, there was an incident while you were making that deal."

"Incident?" asked Darcie.

Silva nodded as he snapped his fingers. The Draco Grunts arrived as they noticed a Spinarak device that was busted. Darcie then turned around, seeing a fried electric vent. Silva looked up as Darcie turned to them, "The signal traced to an unknown source… but there was gunfire at the shipyard. Witnesses say he fought them and fled."

Jake touched the vent as he closed his eyes. As he opened them, he looked over as he grabbed his saber, "Lamar was here… I can sense him. The rangers must know about the Genesect Computer."

"Nooo… now how are we going to make this work?" asked Darcie.

Silva grinned as he turned to Jake. Jake nodded as he looked at Darcie, "This is why we make decoys."


Outside by the Warehouse…

Lamar, Rachel and Cedric were walking together. Each ranger wore a grey jumpsuit with a grey hat. The rangers were walking toward the shipyard as they were watching Machoke move boxes. As Lamar went to grab one to pass, Rachel grinned as she looked at the Machoke, giving him the box. Cedric said nothing as he did his job. As they unloaded, Rachel turned around as she looked at them, "I feel like we are on those cop shows."

"I feel like we are detectives," said Cedric, "Except no Growlithe."

Lamar took a deep breath as he walked over to them. Rachel and Cedric sat on the truck as Lamar faced them, "This is honestly the biggest operation we've pulled."

"You're telling us," said Rachel, "When we were Mystic Rangers, we wore cloaks!"

Lamar nodded as his Relic Detector started ringing. Lamar turned around as he looked at the morpher, seeing a text response. Lamar looked up as he turned to them, "They are making the trade."


In the Shipyard…

Grace, Zander and Urara were dressed up in sailor suits. The sailor suits were black and blue with black sailor caps. As they were walking, Zander turned around as he looked at Grace and Urara. Grace looked at Urara as Urara nodded silently. Taking out the key card, she swiped the card as the door opened. The three of them walked together as they continued to walk. Saluting the other sailors, Urara turned to Zander, "I have no idea that these are criminal suits."

"It's must be a newer version of Team Aqua or something," said Grace, "Maybe Team Aqua now got them rallied up."

"Who knows," said Zander, "Right now… Seb told us things are going to begin. We need to roll!"

Urara turned around as she tapped Grace and Zander on the shoulders, "Look, there's a security office to the right."

Walking calmly, she turned around as she noticed the security office was locked. She then went to swipe the card. There was a loud noise. Urara sighed as she looked at Grace, "I need a Level 5 clearance."

Grace and Zander looked at each other and then shook their head. Urara sighed as she then turned around. She grinned as she noticed a female sailor with golden sashes. She also had a few Pokémon on her belt. Urara walked over as she arrived.

"Hey… I have a question…" said Urara.

The woman looked at her as she turned to her, "What?"

"Apparently, I got the wrong key card," said Urara, looking at it, "I actually have a Level 5 clearance, could you… help me?"

As she walked over to reach for the card, she headed toward the security office. As she swiped the card, she turned around as a cloud of green dust clouded her. Urara covered her nose as the female officer landed on the ground.

"Not bad," said Zander.

Urara grinned as she looked at him, "Zander, just tie her up so we can get this done."

Grace looked at Urara as she laughed. Urara grinned as she took out her emerald laptop. Opening up the laptop, she plugged into the main computer. Grace and Zander were surprised that no one was in the security room. Urara turned around as she saw the two screens. One was the main room and the other was the entrance.

"This is going to be an interesting trade," said Zander.

"Yep," said Urara, "Two unmarked cars at the warehouse and then the trade at the shipyard…"

"Wait…," said Grace, "If that's true…"

Urara nodded as she reached for her Relic Detector, "Seb, come in."

"Yep," said Seb over the intercom.

"I have managed to give you access to both screens. It looks like there's two trades going on," said Urara.

"As expected… we've been had," said Seb, "One must be a decoy of some kind."

"Great…," said Zander, turning around, "Then that means we got to figure out if our trade is fake."

"Exactly," said Seb, looking at the screens, "Hang tight…"


Back at the Shipyard…

An unmarked black limo pulls up to the shipyard as people walk out. They wore black business suits with white dress shirts and black ties. A few of them were Team Rocket grunts as they were looking with ease. Rachel and Cedric turned around as they faced Lamar. Lamar looked at them as they also appeared with weapons attached. As the other car arrived, they turned around as they noticed someone stepping out. Lamar eyed the car as he noticed someone stepped out.

Meanwhile…

"Hi guys!" Darcie said, "Did you make your decision?"

The leader nodded as he turned around, "Yes, we did… we figured it out and we will go through with it."

"Excellent," said Darcie, she grinned, "Once you get this, you can equip with anything… powering up weapons to repairing your ships to even maybe powering up your Pokémon!"

Immediately, a slap appeared behind Darcie as Silva appeared behind her, "Sorry, she was giving a little too much information."

Darcie turned around, "But, Silva…"

"I want to make a good deal," said Silva, "So… what will it be?"


Back at the warehouse…

Jake stepped out as he arrived with a silver case. Shutting the door, he turned around as he walked toward the mob. The Team Rocket grunt nodded as he grabbed the case. Jake grinned as he made the exchange. Lamar looked at Rachel. Rachel nodded as Lamar grabbed a black assault rifle, aiming for Jake. Pulling the trigger, bullets exploded out as the car was hit and Jake was hit. Rachel grabbed her Scope Shot and pulled the case away from Jake. Jake turned around as Rachel then took out her Poké Ball, "Flare, Flamethrower!"

Flareon popped out, releasing a field of flames at the cars. As a few canisters blew up, so did their transportation. Jake turned around as the rangers removed their suits, showing their actual clothes, revealing themselves to the team.

"How?" asked Jake.

"Don't even try. We knew about this," said Lamar, "Luckily, we will get to check to see if its fake, but this ends now."

"And all of you will be under arrest when this is done," said Cedric.

"Kill them!" shouted Jake.

"Rachel!" shouted Lamar.

"Flare, quick Smokescreen!" shouted Rachel.

Flare released a wave of smoke as it clouded. Returning Flare, the rangers ducked as bullets rang out. As they all missed, Lamar and the others jumped up in their ranger suits.

"I'll scan," said Rachel, "Handle them."

"Got it!" shouted Lamar.

Lamar and Cedric jumped through the smoke, back into the crowd. Lamar kicked a few of them in the stomach as they landed on the ground. As he went to grab one of them, he felt something detach as the businessmen broke free from the clothes. Lamar looked up as he noticed a Draco Grunt was sitting there.

"A Draco Grunt?" asked Lamar.

Cedric turned around as he saw a few of the Draco Grunts materialize from being businessmen and Rocket Grunts. As the rangers were handling them, Jake turned around as he grinned. Getting in the car, he turned the key over as he backed up, driving away. Grinning, he turned around as he went for a silver device that had a red button on it. Pressing it, he laughed as he started driving from the warehouse.

After the rangers destroyed the Draco Grunts, Rachel went over to take a look at the case. Opening it, she picked up her Relic Detector to scan it. Watching the numbers, she turned around as she saw a big zero on the screen. She then turned around as she saw a red device attached to the cube. She closed the case as she dashed over to the car. As a few of the Draco Grunts jumped in the car, Rachel threw the case across. The case broke through the back window as glass shattered. Lamar and Cedric looked at Rachel as they saw the car explode upon exit.

"Rachel, what did you do?" asked Lamar.

"Relax, Lamar… it's a decoy," said Rachel, "We were set up."

Cedric pressed the button on his Detector Morpher, "Did you hear that?"

"Yup," said Seb, on the intercom.

Sitting on the bridge, Seb pressed a button on the chair, connecting communications to the other group, "Urara, it looks like you might have to move in. The other trade was a decoy."

"Understood," Urara said.

Seb stood up as he went to get up from the bridge. He turned around as he left the bridge, walking toward the steps. Going down the steps, Seb walked into the meeting room. He grabbed a black bag as he looked at his watch, "I don't have that much time."


Back at the Slateport Shipyard…

Darcie and Silva grinned as they were looking at each other. Silva nodded as he walked away, leaving Darcie to continue. The sailors were staring at her as she sat down to continue her demonstration. Darcie grinned as she was hooked the wires into the computer system. She opened a few windows using her mouse as she saw Zander, Grace and Urara on screen.

"So… we are going to do a quick demonstration on your security system!" said Darcie, "Activating Security Force Level 4!"

Pressing the button, the alarms sounded throughout the whole entire shipyard. While all of the alarms were sounding, Grace, Zander and Urara started running corridor through corridor as the doors were coming down on them.

"Wonderful!" Urara shouted, "This wasn't part of the plan!"

"Darcie must've put the security system online," shouted Zander.

"Probably at the highest level too!" shouted Grace. Looking up to see the cameras, red laser beams pierced out as they were dodging the attack. Seeing that they had to get to the other side, Zander, Urara and Grace took out their Scope Shots. The doors opened up on either side as robotic versions of Growlithe appeared. Opening their mouths, tons of fire and brimstone emerged.

"Scope Shot!" shouted the rangers. Pulling the trigger, the hooks combined as they connected to a hook in the ceiling. The three of them flew over the Growlithe and landed behind them. Retracting their hooks, the team dashed away as the laser beams continued their onslaught. As the Robotic Growlithe went toward them, Urara swiped her key card as the door closed in front of them. The Growlithe started biting the door as the three rangers looked at each other. They noticed they were in the lunchroom of the shipyard, seeing the vending machines and tables.

"Now, what do we do?" asked Grace.

Urara turned around as she looked at her laptop. Opening it, she looked at the team, "It looks like security has barricaded all around. We need to shut the security system down."

"How?" asked Zander.

Urara turned around as she looked at the panel that was attached to the wall. Walking over, she placed the laptop down and ripped the panel opening. She took out the wires and started plugging her computer in, "I am going to pull a Ray Hoover and do something I have no experience in."

"And what is that?" asked Zander.

"I'm putting some malware in the security system," said Urara.

"YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!" shouted Grace and Zander.


Meanwhile…

Max walked into the Hunter Battleship as he headed toward the meeting room. Seb turned around, dressed in a Team Aqua Uniform. The shirt was black instead of blue with the Aqua symbol in blue letters. He also wore blue and black pants as he wore a blue and black bandana with black sunglasses. He grinned as he turned to Max.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" asked Seb.

Max grinned, "It's been a while."

He formed his hands into a ninja position, "Pokémon Ninpo! Transform!"

Grabbing on to Seb's hand, a flash of light transformed Max as he became the exact duplicate of Seb. Max grinned as he looked at him, "So, there was radio silence?"

"Yes," said Seb, "I'm going as a Shadow Team Aqua Grunt… seeing that's the new thing now. I'm meeting Silva in Slateport in 10 minutes."

"Good," said Max, "I will… spoil the fun."

Seb grinned as he looked at him, "Don't try anything I wouldn't do… you can only last in that form for an hour… and then your covers blown."

"I know…" said Max, laughing as he walked away.


Meanwhile…

Grace and Zander had their Relic Blasters out as Urara was on her computer. She turned around as she looked at the map of the place. Urara sighed as she saw the hallway heading toward the control room. It was flooded with the Growlithe and laser cameras. She looked up as she turned to the vent system.

"We don't have a choice," said Urara, "We are going to have to go through the vent system."

"Aren't they electrified?" asked Grace.

Urara took out her Scepter Dagger. A green aura surrounded it as she broke the vent door. An electric shock was formed as the frame fell on the ground.

"Not anymore. In a few minutes, that virus will be in the security system. It will be just enough," said Urara.

"But, what would happen to the artifact?" asked Zander.

"The CPU has a high anti-virus software. It's going to confuse and shut the system down for at least 5 minutes… it's the time we need," said Urara, "Now, let's go!"

"I'll guess it will be okay," said Grace, climbing up into the vent system. Behind her, Zander started climbing up on the vent system, followed by Urara. As they started climbing up the pipes, they started scuffling toward the control room.


Meanwhile…

Cedric, Lamar and Rachel dashed along the top of the shipyard. Rachel took a deep breath as she looked at the two rangers, "That was tough."

"Tough? Try painful," said Lamar, "That case almost blew us up."

"At this point, we won't know if that artifact will be exchanged," said Cedric.

"We need a plan to break in… seeing that we haven't heard from the other team," said Rachel.

"No need to," a voice said.

Rachel turned around as she looked at Seb, who was walking toward them. Seb arrived as he was walking toward the group, "There is a plan happening… we just need to wait it out."

"Wait it out?" asked Lamar, "Zander, Grace, and Urara are inside! They could be dead!"

Seb turned around, "Right now, if we were to walk in, the security system is online. We need to at least five minutes for the security breach to end."

As Seb finished explaining, Rachel looked over to notice something different about Seb. She nodded slowly as she turned to the others, "Waiting it out is not a big deal… I love the sunshine anyway."

Lamar looked at Rachel with a weird look. Rachel sat down on one of the platforms as she took out one of her Poké Balls, cleaning it with a white polish, "Get all the TLC in the world…"

Cedric looked at Rachel as he walked over. Rachel looked up as Cedric crossed his arms, "What's going on?"

Rachel grinned as she looked at the silver ranger, "Sometimes, Cedric, you just have to wait and see."

"You are starting to act like Max now," said Cedric, sighing as he shook his head.


Meanwhile…

As they managed to get to the peak of the ventilation system, Urara was looking at her watch as they continued crawling through the vents.

"How long till we can get out?" asked Grace.

"About one minute," said Urara, "We're almost there!"

As they reached around the corner, the rangers noticed a huge ventilation system that was busted open. Grace looked over as she noticed the door to the control room was wide open. The Robotic Growlithe were running around. Grace took a deep breath as she looked at Urara. Urara looked at her watch as she saw the timer. As the timer read 0:00, they heard someone complain from the inside.

"A VIRUS?"

Urara nodded as the three of them landed in the corridor. As they dashed in the control room, they noticed a few sailors as they had guns on them. Urara, Grace and Zander turned around as they looked at Darcie. Darcie grinned as she looked at them, "Rangers…"

"These are the Poké Rangers?" asked one of them, "They are destroying our friends, Team Aqua! We can't let that happen!"

Zander turned around as he pulled out his Relic Blaster, "You dare to shoot us when you have an artifact that could benefit you?"

"Huh?" asked Grace. Zander looked at him as Grace nodded, "Well, we don't need this CPU. We just store it away anyway. Besides, I am sure if you find Archie, you can bring back Team Aqua and everything will be okay."

Urara nodded as she took out her morpher, "Yup. I am sure once we can get this scanned, everything will be fine."

"You must've installed this virus," said Darcie.

"And so what if I did? It's only a Neji Virus Malware system. Should knock it out," said Urara.

Darcie laughed as she looked at Urara. Urara scanned it as she read a 0 on the morpher. She looked up as she turned to Darcie, "THIS IS A DECOY?"

Darcie grinned, "Yeah… good job!"

"So, both are decoys," said Grace, sighing.

"Not quite…," a voice said.

Grace turned around as she looked at the door. The rangers turned around as Rachel, Cedric, Lamar and Seb arrived.

"Ah, all seven of you are here! Shadow Team Aqua will definitely have a fun time with you," said Darcie, "You failed…"

"No, you failed," said Seb.

A flash of white light surrounded Seb as Max appeared. Max grinned as he turned around, looking at Darcie. Darcie took a deep breath as she looked at him, "And who are you?"

"I'm Max. I'm the White Mighty Morphin' Poké Ranger, Guardian of Relics…" he said.

Suddenly, Max's morpher started glowing as he pressed a button, "This is Seb. I returned with the Genesis CPU. All team members attack!"

"Wait so that Shadow Grunt…," said Darcie.

Urara laughed as she looked at her, "You are the dumbest villain we've ever seen before."

"You little b-," Darcie went to say, but Urara slapped her across the face. Urara threw her finger at her, "You're done… you're done."

"Then," said Darcie, looking over as she pressed the blue button, "I don't have a choice."

A flash of blue light surrounded the cube as a being magically transformed. It was a Porygon2 creature with a computer installed with emerald wings and golden claws. Revealing in its hand, a golden gatling gun appeared as a green CD was installed.

"BULLET SEED!"

Shooting bullets, the Team Aqua Grunts started taking cover as the explosions surrounded the machines. The rangers immediately started to dash out as Darcie turned around, "Don't worry about them! Get the rangers! They can go to jail for all I care! Porydraco… kill them!"

The rangers dashed outside, heading toward the edge of the Shipyard where the platform met the ocean. A flash of white light appeared as Polydraco arrived. With the gatling gun, he took a red CD and placed it in, "Fire Spin!"

A stream of flames surrounded the crew as they were surrounded together in the flames. As the rangers were caught in the flames, Max turned around as he used his hands again, "Pokémon Ninpo! Teleport!"

In a flash, a white light surrounded them as they teleported out of the fall of fire. Porydraco started marching forward as the other rangers turned around. Max turned to them, "Let's morph!"

"Right!" shouted the rangers, withdrawing their morphers, "Relic Hunters, Start Up!"

"Ancient Light, White Might!" shouted Max.

A flash of white light surrounded him as he transformed into his uniform. He had a Mewtwo helmet with a big black V coming down on his chest. There was a gold on top of the black. There was a white Mewtwo on the belt. He was wearing white boots and gloves with gold on the wrists and ankles. His left hand had a morpher and on his right side, a sword.

"What the heck?" asked Darcie, looking down.

"Let's go team!" shouted Max, "Combination Attack!"

Porydraco released another fire spin attack, causing the rangers to dodge the attack. Urara, Zander and Grace flipped forward with their weapons.

"Scepter Dagger! Leaf Storm!"

"Psychic Cutters! Psycho Cut!""

Green and pink lines were cut as Porydraco was hit by the attack. He then turned around as Zander arrived with his Swamp Blaster.

"Swamp Blaster, Hydro Pump!"

A blast of water hit Polydraco as Lamar, Cedric and Rachel continued their onslaught with their weapons.

"Doom Hammer! Shadow Slammer!"

"Thunder Scooper! Thunder Strike!"

"Meta Tector! Meteor Mash!"

Dark, electric and steel attacks emerged as the creature started spinning around. Next, Max withdrew his sword from his holster. It was white with golden edges in it and it was more of a modified version of the original weapon with Mewtwo's face on the edge.

"Psychic Dagger! Psystrike!"

A purplish-whitish energy surrounded the dagger as he made a whole circle around him. He then threw the dagger across as Porydraco was stabbed through with psychic energy. Grabbing the Psychic Dagger, Max turned around as the monster fell down, exploding into pieces.

"Alright!" shouted the team, turning to Max. Max grinned as he looked at the dagger, "Didn't lose my touch…"


Meanwhile…

At the Dracos Hideout, Silva walked over as he headed to the main room. There, Jake grinned as he looked over, turning to Silva as he sat down with the silver case. Silva grinned as he looked at Jake, "Ah, so the decoys have been set. The monster may have done some damage and we pretty much made profit on the computer."

"Excellent," said Jake.

"To revive a new Team Aqua… they need the technology," he said, "And now… we have cash to build our own tech."

As Silva opened the suitcase, he stood in shock as he saw a black and green device with a red timer that started beeping. Jake quickly turned around as he threw the suitcase across to the hallway. Jake and Silva took cover as the side of the hideout exploded with fireworks. Jake and Silva looked up as they saw the glass ceiling. Silva turned around as he saw red fireworks that said:

THANK YOU- Relic Hunter Red

Silva looked up as he reached for his communication device. Before he could do so, Darcie walked inside in a panic, "Are you okay?"

"What the hell happened?" asked Silva, looking at Darcie.

"You've been had. Seb has the artifact," said Darcie.

"Why I oughta -." Silva said, "And?"

"Porydraco is probably mincemeat by now," said Darcie.

Silva raised his hands as green and yellow energy surrounded him. Darcie stood there in shock as a spell tag was sent out.


As the rangers turned around, heading for the shipyard, they saw a teal light behind them. Turning around toward the shipyard, Max shook his head as he saw a megasized Porydraco.

"Oh, just what we need…," said Rachel.

Porydraco released a spray of bullets toward the blacktop. The rangers started heading toward the edge as they headed toward the ocean. Jumping in, they were just about to dive into the Battleship as the Hunter Battleship started to rise. The rangers landed on top as Lamar walked over to press the button. Getting inside, the rangers landed in the ship.

Lamar turned around as he looked at the group, Max sighed as he removed his helmet, "That doesn't surprise me to say the least."

As they got to the bridge, Seb arrived, unmorphed as he turned to them. The battleship was hit by a spray of bullets as the lights turned red.

"What happened?" asked Seb.

"Ask Darcie. She sent a mad monster to pretty much put holes in us," said Grace, sitting down in her seat. She pressed a yellow TM25 button, "Thunder!"

Pressing on the starboard turret, a yellow blast of energy hit Porydraco, electrocuting it.

Polydraco laughed as it threw black chains around it. He then pressed a blue button as green energy surrounded the battleship. The alarms started going back and forth as Urara was looking at her screen. She turned around as she looked at them, "Well, that virus I injected is now in our system."

"Great," said Seb, "Ideas? Thoughts?"

"Well, we can't transform at this rate," said Urara.

"Well… that's not good," said Cedric.

Max turned around as he looked at Urara, "Well, the antivirus system will take a few minutes to kick in for the ship because its that big."

Max walked over as he turned around, noticing where it was located, "Yeah… its in the freighter section. But, we can split up and attack. It will give the freighter section a chance to kick the software in."

Seb nodded, "Let's make it quick."

Lamar went to walk, but Max pulled him aside, "Sadly, the freighter is yours."

"Ugh…," said Lamar.

Seb, Zander, Grace and Rachel walked into the main corridor where they saw five chutes in each ranger color. As Seb, Zander, Grace and Rachel got into the chutes, they split into each part of the zord. The cockpits had joysticks and consoles, but each zord had a number on the back starting with 15 through 19.

"Battleship Separation standing by," said Lamar.

"Battleship Zord Inferno, ready!" Seb shouted.

"Battle Zord Hydro, standing by!" Zander nodded.

"Battle Zord Electro, online!" Rachel said.

"Battle Zord Psyche, ready!" Grace said.

Lamar pressed buttons as he looked at the bridge, "Battle Zord Shadow, ready for auto sepearation."

Max nodded as he turned to them, "Activate separation!"

Pressing the buttons, the five zords separated from the battleship, heading toward the beast. Porydraco released a spray of bullets as Inferno started spinning around.

"Flame Wheel!" shouted Seb.

Spinning around, Polydraco was hit as the flames engulfed. Turning around, Hydro flew across as the zord collected a bunch of ocean water from its wings.

"Aqua Jet!" shouted Zander.

Slashing through, Polydraco was then once again hit. Polydraco went to shoot another wave, hitting Electro and Psyche. Rachel and Grace held on as they continued driving.

"Psybeam!"

"Charge Beam!"

Electric and psychic energy emerged as the beams pierced through Porydraco. Porydraco took out a white TM. An amber beam shot out as the four zords were hit.

"Guys!" shouted Lamar, turning around as he looked at Max. Urara turned around as she was looking at the screen. Instantly, she saw a blue line across from Shadow.

"Lamar, your zord is operational again…," said Urara, "Rangers, we're good to go!"

"Gladly," said Seb, taking out his key card, "Voyager Fusion!"

Swiping the keycard, the passcode popped out on the screen, "Code 2011, Engage!"

Voyager Fusion… in progress!

Electro, the yellow bomber vehicle, which had black lightning stripes around it, extended as it became the lower torso and legs. Shadow, the black freighter stayed connected as the legs lifted up into the air. Shadow rotated 90 degrees as silver bones materialized around the freighter, becoming the upper torso. The blue fighter jet, also known as Hydro, swung across as it split, becoming the shoulder blades. The front of the Battleship, which were the silver wheels with pink and black stripes, also known as Psyche, connected to either side of the freighter becoming the arms, connecting to the fighter jets. The red armored vehicle, known as Inferno, formed the head as it connected to the top of the Megazord. Dark clouds surrounded it as blue lightning bolts surround it.

The rangers arrived on the bridge, sitting in their respective stations.

"Battleship Megazord, battle ready!"

Porydraco laughed as he released a lime green device and placed it in the gatling gun, "Infestation!"

A green energy beam latched on to the Battleship as he began to absorb energy.

"He's draining our energy source," said Urara, looking at the screen, "It's coming from the computer."

"Target that computer, Grace," said Seb, "Pin Needle!"

A spray of lime needles pierced through the computer as Porydraco stumbled. One of the claws began to glow black as a Shadow Claw attack was formed, hitting Polydraco it landed in the ocean. Seb turned around as they nodded, "Hyper Charge!"

Pressing the red button on all consoles, a golden aura surrounded the arms as they started to twirl.

"Battleship Megazord, Double Corkscrew Drill!"

The golden auras surrounded the arms as it drilled into the monster. Porydraco screamed as an explosion surrounded him. The Battleship Megazord stood on the surface, standing down.

A few minutes later…

Rachel turned around as she looked at Seb as the Hunter Battleship was reformed, heading to the base. Seb looked at Rachel as she put her elbow on the chair, "That was a clever plan."

"It was a good plan," said Seb, turning to Urara, "All thanks to you."

Urara turned around, "Me?"

"Well, I did some scanning on the computer core. The Genesis Computer is what we definitely needed to fix our computers. You did good figuring it out," said Seb.

"Well, I just used my computer… I'm not an engineer. I just study science," said Urara, grinned.

"Take the compliment," said Zander, looking at Urara, "Or I'll take it…"

"No… I'll take it," said Urara, looking at Zander, "Just watch and make sure we don't hit a rock formation. Don't want this ship to go down like the Titanic."

Grace looked at Urara as she giggled a little, "Just like Zander's love life."

Urara and Grace started giggling and then bursting out in laugher as Zander shook his head. Max laughed as he walked toward the bridge, "Well… if it makes things great, I have some Pokémon delivering ice cream to us to celebrate."

"Ice Cream?" asked Urara, grinning, "I'm in…"


Poké Rangers: Relic Hunters

Vs.

POKÉ WARS

Teaser 2

The screen was black before the sound of a TV turning on was heard, and it showed a reporter standing on metal structure in the middle of the ocean.

"We bring you to a special discovery in Alola where the Aether Paradise group has discovered a metallic plate under the sea in the center of the Alola Region, archeologists from around the world are coming to inspect this ancient plate and believe it to be older than the formation of our planet, while we're here we've been told of it hasn't oxidize at all and remains in prime condition. Some believe it to be one of the ancient life plates of the great Pokémon Arceus, who was said to have created the world." As the reporter spoke the symbol of the Aether Paradise appeared on the side of the reporter before it was replaced by an ancient mosaic of Arceus with all of its life plates around it with a rough image of the plate in question next to mythical Pokémon.

The images was then replaced by a young woman with natural white hair smiling at the camera as the reporter spoke, "Professor Burnet, known researcher of the relations between Pokémon and what she calls as 'other dimensions' warns that it could have come to our dimension from another one, one with more scientific advancements that we could only dream of. While some scoff at this theory, believing it to be from Arceus. Others are intrigued especially with the initial energy readings they have found while scanning this 'cosmic plate'."

Unaware of a certain group of villains watching the news coverage. After the news article ended, the screen paused and zoomed in on the plate, the image was enhanced and cleared up. It wasn't flat but it was slightly curved. At their private locations, the three leaders of their respective teams looked at the plate on the screen as the voice of their client spoke to the three leaders individually, "There it is, as I said, and all you have to do is get it for me before those pesky rangers do."

The three leaders were prepared to get it, even as they have no idea of the competition that's gonna be in each group's way.


Next Chapter:

Seb: Look at this! A Pecha Berry…

Cedric: That's a mega-sized Pecha Berry

Rachel: It's a Machop!

Justen: Look at this… we took it!

Urara: Guys, that is not an ordinary Machop!

Cedric: What do you mean?

Machop: Dad? Grandpa?

Seb: I'm Grandpa?

Cedric: Uh…

Urara: Looks like we've got a talking Machop.

Seb: Machop, wait!

Poké Rangers Relic Hunters Chapter 38: Pokémon Parents

Cedric: We need him to do it alone!

Seb: Cousin, do you even know how to be a dad?

Cedric: Guess there's always a first time for everything.

A/N: I enjoyed writing this chapter for sure and I did get carried away! The first scene shouldn't have been 5 pages long, but I was like… let's roll with it. Think of it as an 80s TV Show. And just to make it clear as well, every time I have written a storyline with Zander and Urara, it takes me back to the Mystic Force days. It's comedic, it's funny, and adventurous of true friendship. So, I hope you enjoyed this one. Next week, just a heads up, the chapter will be somewhat interesting.

As you can see, we have another trailer for Poké Rangers Relic Hunters vs. Poké Wars. Like I said, we will let you know soon when this is happening.

Okay… now for the announcement you've all been waiting for…


Ah, the Sinnoh Region… a place where time and space interact. A place where mysteries of Pokémon exist. It's also a place where galaxies and mystery intertwine. Even though Team Galactic tried to do drastic things in 2007, trying to use Diagla, Palkia and Giratina to do their bidding… 16 years later, well… I can tell you this, Sinnoh is in deep trouble.

A bounty hunter and his crew of lackeys revived after being fossilized for years after trying to find the Dino Gems, 10 gems with magnificent power to bring peace and balance to the world. These 10 gems were buried in certain fossils. Once someone finds those fossils, they become bonded with power beyond belief. These new trainers, whether they were Pokémon Trainers, Coordinators or even other titles, when bonding with these new fossils, they will become Sinnoh's first fighting force.
