Summary: (R.5 Pokemon Crossover) Ranma and Nabiki are launched into LEO after an argument with Akane and fly through a portal into another dimension.

A/N: I often get complaints about my normal writing style being confusing so I'm writing this story in script form, it's merely an experiment, don't flame about it. I've also been chewed for not warning people about pairings…but really, the entire first chapter was merely setting up for their adventure. Why would you read this if you didn't know what Pokemon was anyway? I also had Ranma drop his idiot act, he isn't that stupid. Also, due to many complaints about Script form, this chapter will only be partially scripted.

Setting: Ranma and Nabiki just left Pallet with their Pokemon, Sparky the Pichu and Hot Stuff the Charmander. Both have Pokekid (Human with attributes of their species) forms. Begin Script!

Pokeverse Ranma

Chapter 2: Route 1


Route 1, Kanto Region, Japan, Day 1

Ranma, Sparky, Nabiki and Hot Stuff walk out onto Route 1. Ranma leads the group off to one side of the road and finds a perfect clearing for training. Ranma sits down with the group and pulls two tents out of his Weapon Space. Ranma casts his senses out to watch for other trainers as he and Nabiki set up camp. Ranma gives an all clear for their Pokemon to shift back into their Pokekid forms.

Ranma: Looks at his students "Alright, do all three of you accept my terms. Once we begin this training none of us are going to back out, is that clear?"

Nabiki, Sparky and Hot Stuff all nod their assent.

Nabiki: Turns to Sparky and Hot Stuff "The two of you are going to need to speak Japanese. We won't have a language barrier between us, clear?"

Sparky and Hot Stuff smile and nod.

Ranma: Grins and steps up to Nabiki's side "They act like they are our children."

Nabiki: Playfully hits Ranma's shoulder "Don't let your mother hear that."

Ranma: Does an impression of his mother "Wah, Grandbabies." Drops the impression quickly "Right?"

Nabiki: Snickers "Yeah, I can see her doing that and then glomping the poor kids."

Ranma: "Well, I'm going to run back to Pallet and pick up some supplies, I'm fairly certain that we are going to need a great deal of food for our training and I don't want to start hunting for food until we can be sure that what we are going to eat can't fight back. Nabiki, do you need anything from town before we settle down for the night?"

Nabiki: "I'm going to say that you'll likely need to pick up some extra clothing, but that can wait 'til tomorrow afternoon at the latest."

Ranma: (Thoughtful) "I want you to take measurements of the kids, we are going to need to clothe them, especially if they evolve…cause I get the feeling that when they do their human forms are going to become teenagers."

Nabiki: (Thoughtful) "You might want to pick up a few extra sets of clothes for yourself today and tomorrow I'll make the trip into town. How long are we going to spend on Route 1?"

Ranma: (Calm) "Two weeks, at least. It depends on how fast the kids learn what I want to teach them. I figure our twelve thousand Yen should last for two weeks if we start foraging after tomorrow."

Nabiki: "Sounds good. And if we're lucky after our first two weeks of training we can pick up and move to the north of here and find a nice area to train in."

Ranma jumps into the trees and heads back into Pallet Town, stopping at the Pokemart in Pallet Town to pick up a few extra sets of clothing and to fill his pack with food. Ranma also buys a pair of Pokeballs before heading back to the camp. When Ranma purchased the Pokeballs they glowed for a second as he slipped them into the ball pocket of his backpack. On the way out of Pallet he stopped at the local junkyard and picked out a great deal of scrap metal and computer parts as well as a couple broken bicycles, all of which he stuff into his Weapon Space before arriving back at camp. As Ranma drops into the clearing from the tree tops Nabiki is sitting there teaching the Pokekids how to talk. Sparky seems to pick it up slightly faster than Hot Stuff.

Sparky: Notices Ranma's return "Ranma-Sensei's back!"

Ranma: Looks at Sparky "Nabiki, how fast did they pick up what you were trying to teach them?"

Nabiki: Looks at Ranma "About as fast as I introduced it. I had to tell them twice to refer to me as Nabiki-Sensei and you as Ranma-Sensei. Otherwise they picked up the language and meanings pretty quickly. I'd say that Pokemon are definitely intelligent creatures capable of learning to read and write."

Ranma: Walks up to Sparky and hugs her gently "I'm going to be staying in my cursed form during you guys' training. It should cut down on how much rain we encounter. While I was on my way back I located a junkyard and figured that I'd spend a little time inventing…maybe even build us a mode of transportation or perhaps a more permanent shelter when we decide where we want to make our home here." Ranma tosses a Pokeball to Nabiki, when Nabiki catches it the ball glows for a second. "I figured we could each use an extra Pokeball. Never know when you might want to recruit another Pokemon."

Ranma places his pack beside one of the tents and then sits down beside Nabiki.

Nabiki: Leans against Ranma "So, what's training going to be like in the morning?"

Ranma: (Thoughtful) "Twenty laps around the campsite at a jog and then a race to the stream about a quarter mile to the east of here to clean up then we come back to the camp site and I'll cook breakfast while the three of you do meditation exercises. During Breakfast we will be doing some speed training. It will include taking food from other people's plates and putting it in their mouths; you will not be allowed to touch your own plate."

Nabiki: (Wry) "Sounds like the opposite of what Genma did to you."

Ranma: (Smug) "Yep, but like I said, it'll be a free for all, the three of you will learn to eat as well as think fast and by the beginning of next week I'll start training the three of you in the Amaguriken. I told Cologne I wouldn't train anyone except my family in it and she also asked me not to teach it to Pops…like I would anyway…since the four of us are going to be family in this world then I'm allowed to teach you the Amaguriken, the Umisenken, the Yamasenken, the Hiryu Shoten Ha, and a few other techniques I've picked up over the years I was training with Pops."

Nabiki: (Thoughtful) "I want to catch another Pokemon sometime this week to see if that effect works on all our Pokemon or just our starters."

Ranma: (Thoughtful) "I guess I'll catch another as well. I have a feeling that it will, every Pokeball we've got glowed when we picked them up, and even when they just change hands like that one I tossed to you."

Nabiki: (Thoughtful) "The next wild Pokemon we come across will join our little group, agreed?"

Ranma: "Agreed."

Sparky walks over to Ranma and tries to sit on his lap.

Sparky: "Ranma-Sensei?"

Ranma: "Yes, Sparky?"

Sparky: "Can I share your tent with you in this form tonight?"

Ranma nods and Hot Stuff walks over to Nabiki and sits besides her, leaning against her.

Hot Stuff: "Nabiki-Sensei, may I sleep in your tent tonight? I promise I won't burn it and that you won't get cold."

Nabiki: Looks at her Pokekid and smiles to him "Sure, I'll hold you to that not burning my tent down though."

Hot Stuff: Smiles and wraps his arms around her "Thank you, Nabiki-Sensei."

The group goes into their tents for the night.


Ranma's campsite, Route 1, Day two.

Ranma and company wake up and do their new morning ritual. Ranma wins the race to the stream in the morning and after breakfast Nabiki heads into town to buy a few extra sets of clothing for their Pokekids as well as some supplies. On Nabiki's way back she is attacked by a Ratatta, a large rat. Nabiki dodges its initial head butt and flattens it into the ground with an axe kick before using one of her Pokeballs to catch it. When Nabiki returns to the campsite she greets the Pokekids and hands them their new clothes before letting her new Ratatta out of its ball. The Ratatta comes out of its Pokeball looking like a teenage male with a Ratatta tail, ears and whiskers as well as claws on his hands and feet. The new Poketeen looks startled as it looks at its body and begins to curl up into a little ball, as if saying this can't be happening.

Nabiki: (Gentle) "It's the consequences of your actions. You attacked me and I defended myself then used one of my Pokeballs on you. I'm not going to abuse you, but you can train with us if you want. You're a part of our family now, make the most of it."

The Ratatta Poketeen looks up at Nabiki questioningly and Nabiki smiles to him.

Nabiki: "I need a name for you. How about we call you Zumi?"

The Ratatta Poketeen shakes his head.

Nabiki: "How's Monty sound to you?"

The Ratatta Poketeen nods.

Sparky: Walks over to Monty and pats him on the back "Welcome to the family, Monty. If you want to revert to your basic form just focus on what you looked like before she caught you."

Monty: Shifts into his Pokemon form (In Ratatta) "How did you learn to speak human?"

Sparky: "Nabiki-Sensei taught me, shift back into your human form, Ranma-Sensei wants to start training you."

Monty shifts into his Poketeen form and looks at Ranma curiously.

Ranma: (Serious) "Once I start training you we won't stop. I want you to avoid getting too injured. We won't be sparring for a while yet. First I have to get you all up to a certain point in the training first."

Monty nods and bows to Ranma, as if to say "Hai, Sensei." Ranma and company continue their rituals and Sparky gives Monty a quick overview of what's to be expected of him. Nabiki spends a couple hours teaching Monty how to speak and he picks it up just as fast as the others did. The five of them relax a bit before going to sleep.

(A/N: End Script.)


Campsite, Route 1, Day 3

Ranma and company wake up and do their morning rituals. During the meditation time a Pidgey lands on the edge of the clearing and watches the strange group, hopping up on Sparky's lap. Sparky reaches out and strokes the Pidgey's feathers and looks over to Ranma. Ranma nods and pulls out one of her Pokeballs and hands it to Sparky who uses it to catch the Pidgey. Sparky hands the Pokeball back to Ranma who lets the Pidgey out of its Pokeball. The Pidgey changed into a five year old girl with a small pair of wings growing out of her back and talons on her feet. The girl's hair was the same color as the feathers on her Pokemon form. Ranma and Nabiki teach her Japanese during the afternoon and start her training after that. Ranma goes into town and picks up several bolts of cloth and a sewing kit. Ranma returns to camp without incident. Ranma makes a couple pantsuits for each of the Pokekids before the group turns in for the night. Ranma names the Pidgey Birdie. The Pokekids sleep in their trainer's tents.


Campsite, Route 1, Day 4

No new Pokemon were captured and nothing interrupted their training. Sparky outran Nabiki in the morning race to the stream but still didn't manage to out run Ranma. Birdie kept pace with Nabiki and Hot Stuff and Monty managed to keep pace with one another as they went to the stream. Nabiki, Sparky and Hot Stuff have learned all the basics of Anything Goes by this point and are beginning to work on the Hidden Weapons style. Ranma went into town and bought a journal to keep track of his students' progress. Monty was working on the last few Basic Katas of Anything Goes and Birdie had just begun her training. Sparky and Hot Stuff had breakthroughs and learned how to manifest Battle Auras. Sparky's Battle Aura consisted of electricity arcing around her body while Hot Stuff's Battle Aura consisted of a raging fireball forming around his body.


Campsite, Route 1, Day 5

No new Pokemon, Sparky has begun keeping a perfect pace with Ranma, who hasn't been running full out in the first place. Nabiki and Birdie ran with Hot Stuff and Monty, who sped up over where they were the previous day. During the group's Meditation period it rained, after the rain the Pokekids were unable to shift back to their Pokemon forms for half an hour. That prompts Ranma and Nabiki to experiment with the changes and look for triggers to the change. After a little experimentation Ranma figures out that the Pokekids have a semi controlled version of a Jusenkyo curse. Cold water temporarily locks them in Pokekid form and hot water temporarily locks them in Pokemon form. The temporary locks only last for thirty minutes and can be reversed by exposure to the opposing trigger. Ranma is astounded by the Pokekids' ability to learn. Sparky and Hot Stuff start on the Amaguriken training while Monty and Birdie finish up the basics and start learning how to manipulate their Ki. Nabiki has a breakthrough and manifests a Battle Aura followed by summoning a mallet, which she uses to knock a tree over so they have some firewood.


Campsite, Route 1, Day 6

No new captures, Nabiki started on the Amaguriken training and Sparky mastered it. Hot Stuff was getting close to mastering the Amaguriken and Birdie and Monty had breakthroughs with their Ki, manifesting a pair of rather potent Battle Auras. Ranma and Nabiki decided to head back into town and pick up an extra tent. Ranma started a personal project, something about making bicycles for the group. He works through the night and completes four of the six bicycles he was working on.


Campsite, Route 1, Day 7

Ranma and company are discovered by a pair of Pokemon trainers, one of them is male the other, female. Both of them fit within the Cool Trainer stereotypes. They challenge Ranma to a fight and Ranma sets the terms for their fight. Ranma versus the male trainer's four Pokemon, one right after another. Nabiki made a bet with the female trainer, eight to one odds that Ranma would lose; the female bet three thousand yen.

The Male Trainer's Team consisted of a Butterfree, a Venusaur, a Charizard, and a Fearow. Ranma steps forward to the challenge without his Pokemon to aid him. The Butterfree was sent forward first and Ranma merely yawned, focusing a small Moko Takabisha and hitting the Butterfree in the right wing, knocking it out of the air before he kicked it straight back to its trainer. Second came the Venusaur, Ranma dodged the vine whips and caught them before pulling the Venusaur off the ground by its vines and throwing it into the air where he jumps after it and releases a powerful Amaguriken into the Venusaur's underbelly, knocking it out of the fight as it lands beside its trainer. Ranma's third opponent was the Fearow, which tried to win by staying out of range and attacking with miniature whirlwinds launched from its wings. Ranma canceled them out with Vacuum blades courtesy of the Yamasenken before picking up a stone from the ground and throwing it at the bird, scoring a direct hit on its head, knocking it out of the sky where it landed in Ranma's arms; he handed the downed Pokemon back to its Trainer and took his position again. The Trainer sent his Charizard forward to hopefully take Ranma down. Ranma met the Charizard with the Soul of Ice technique and walked forward through a powerful Flamethrower attack and shut the dragon like Pokemon's mouth with one hand. He then knocked it over the head with his other hand, knocking it out completely. The trainers growl and transfer their wagers to Ranma and Nabiki. Nabiki gets the two trainers' Pokegear numbers before giving them directions to Pallet Town. Ranma and Nabiki made three thousand yen each from the fight.

Sparky began learning the Umisenken techniques after vowing to never use them to take a life. Hot Stuff finished his Amaguriken training and Nabiki began getting close to mastering it as well. Birdie and Monty hit a groove with their training and nearly mastered the Amaguriken as well. By nightfall Ranma had completed the six bikes and became thoughtful.

"Nabiki, at this rate we may be ready to enter Viridian City in a few days. When we go into Viridian I want to buy some back packs for our Pokekids."

Nabiki nods to Ranma.

"Sounds like a plan, they could each get a tent, that way we won't be so crowded. As much as I enjoy being coddled by a pair of boys I'd rather have my tent to myself."

Ranma snickers at that.

"Understandable, having these two girls wrapping themselves around me is reminding me of Ukyo and Shampoo. I keep expecting your explosive little sister to show up and hit me with Mallet-Sama. By the way, we are going to have to move. If those two found us then we can't stick around here and wait for other challengers."

"Sure thing, Ranma."

Ranma and Nabiki retire to their tents for the night.


Route 1, Day 8, Campsite Change.

Ranma and company break camp after breakfast and the six of them start heading closer to Viridian City. The group arrives at another suitable campsite closer to Viridian City than Pallet Town. Ranma's group sets up camp and Ranma sets up three Amaguriken training stations for Nabiki, Monty and Birdie. He then begins instructing Hot Stuff in the advanced Saotome Ryu of Anything Goes while Sparky works to perfect the parts of the Umisenken that she knows. Nabiki, Monty and Birdie all managed to master the basic Amaguriken before nightfall. The group goes to sleep peacefully when night rolls around.


Route 1, Day 9, Breaking Camp.

Ranma informs the group that they have exceeded his expectations and that they will be moving on through Viridian City towards the mountains of Route 22 for the Bakusai Tenketsu training. Ranma and company break camp again and head into Viridian City.


A/N: And there ends Route 1. Next stop Route 22. After the Pokemon learn the Bakusai Tenketsu the group's going to head on towards Pewter City and Brock. Ranma and Nabiki won't be catching their third and fourth Pokemon for a while yet. Again, because of people flaming my Script format I ended the script about halfway through this chapter. It won't be making a reappearance after that point. I realize that everyone is learning things at an extremely accelerated pace, but that's partly due to the 'Blessing' that was imparted upon Ranma and Nabiki. It gave Nabiki Ranma's learning curve, the blessing couldn't do much for Ranma in that respect. Keep watching these notes for more information about their "Pokemorph Blessing".
