Chapter 8
Viridian Forest:
Ash yawns as he gets up for the day, and he spies the note Shino had left for himself and Naruko, mentioning that he had indeed passed his test, and was now the Summoner of Ladybugs. The note also states that Shino would like to be woken up at noon so as to not mess his sleep schedule up too badly. The ravenette eats a couple of granola bars, and feeds his pokémon that were awake as well. He was reasonably sure his Caterpie was close to evolving, and with Shino's help his Caterpie was at peak efficiency and health as well. No one knew Bug Types like the Aburame Clan of Konoha soon to be of Kanto. Hopefully they would be able to settle near Pallet Town. Pikachu was still working on his speed, and Ash had taken to throwing small rocks at his pokémon to help them have better situational awareness as well.
He did this while working on his chakra control, as this worked on his ability to aim and hit moving targets. If a pokémon could survive getting hit by a move like Rock Throw, then they could handle having small rocks thrown at them to test their evasion capabilities along with their situational awareness as well. Once he's allowed his meal to settle he sets to work, leaving the note where Naruko was sure to find it. He stretches out thoroughly before starting the training regimen for the day. This also meant that he refilled his bag of small rocks to throw at his team. Caterpie had mastered Electroweb which was nice. Shino had taught them both how to make food to get the best out of Bug Types. He had only taught them though, since those recipes were Aburame Clan secrets.
Ash really didn't mind having to keep the recipes a secret save for when he had children, which would be a long time down the road if he had anything to say about it. All of his team save for his egg and Dunsparce were benefitting from the way they were training at the moment. Since he kept his egg on him while he was working on his chakra control up and down his designated tree. One hand to mark his progress and the other to throw stones at his team. Since he always flipped on his way down and landed on his feet there was no danger to the egg Naruko had gotten for him. He had to admit he was insanely curious as to what would hatch from his egg. He had Dunsparce watch the tutorial on Dexter for Aqua Tail though he would have Pikachu start working on Iron Tail soon enough.
He'd have to get some hard rubber balls to act as evasion and situational awareness training when they were in towns or near people though you were supposed to throw rocks in the Safari Zone to weaken pokémon in order to catch them. Once he's done working on his team's evasion he checks to see what moves they now know, " Tentacool can sometimes be found all dry and shriveled up on a beach. Toss it back into the sea to revive it. This Tentacool is female and has the ability of Liquid Ooze. This Tentacool knows the moves Poison Sting, Supersonic, Constrict, and Acid. This Tentacool has the egg move of Aurora Beam, and is currently at Level 12. Liquid Ooze is an ability that damages opponents using leeching moves for as much as they would heal. "
Ash frowns and learns that Tentacool could be tutored in Water Pulse, but if he was patient Tentacool would also learn Water Pulse through leveling up. He'd have to do some grinding to get Tentacool the four levels needed. Maybe he could find some Ace Trainers to battle. Dunsparce could be used against the Bug Types, as they were generally very weak when in the wild, even Shino admitted to that. They would be good practice in battling for his infant Dunsparce. He still couldn't believe someone was callous enough to abandon her just because she was shiny! He has all of his team save for Dunsparce work on their aim, how quickly they could charge their attacks, and how long they could make them last as well. Tentacool needed to gain that water attack though Aurora Beam was nice to have.
His Poochyena was up to level nine currently, and had the egg move of Thunder Fang while also knowing Tackle, Howl, and Sand Attack. One more level and he'd have Bite in his arsenal. Ash was also going to ensure his Poochyena learned Iron Tail as well, Steel Type moves were always nice to have. He was so checking his TM Case to see if he had TM 30 which contained Shadow Ball. Having a Ghost Type attack that dealt damage would be nice as Spite just removed a certain number of times an attack could be used. Poochyena also had the ability of Quick Feet which increases the speed on the pokémon having the ability one and a half times when they had a major status ailment. He'd take Poochyena, Dunsparce, and Tentacool with him for training purposes once Naruko woke up. Pikachu would stay here to defend the Bug Types as Caterpie was working on Electroweb, and would also be working on his Tackles as well, plus maneuvering through the air with String Shot.
He's just walking back down the tree, he had finally reached the top, when Naruko wakes up. She reads Shino's note even as she eats her own breakfast which consisted of trail mix with several dried fruits, a few granola bars, and some water. She fed her pokémon as Ash comes over to join her, " I'm gonna head out and get my Poochyena, Tentacool, and Dunsparce trained up. I'm hoping to run into some trainers for Tentacool and Poochyena to battle against while Dunsparce can battle against the Caterpie and Metapod. " Ash says.
" That's cool, I'll let Shino know when I wake him up. Kuwa and Pikachu should be enough to protect the Bug Types though Shino does have a Kakuna now. " Naruko says while stretching. That was when a Pidgeot lands in front of her, and Naruko realizes the Eevee Eggs she had won had finally arrived. She hands one to Ash, and places the other by Shino, " That egg there is an Eevee Egg, I won three of them, one for each of us. "
Ash barely held off on the maniacal cackling. Eevee and the evolutions Eevee could take were so versatile. He'd have to show his Eevee the various forms he, most likely, could take. Eevee were primarily male after all with twenty five percent being female. Ash sets off while Naruko works on reading up some more on the Sealing Arts the Uzumaki Clan was famed for.
Konoha:
Anko could be found walking around Training Ground 44 so she could get her Bulbasaur egg to hatch. While she is doing this her pokémon are working on their speed, endurance, or battling the wild pokémon in the Training Ground, of which there were a lot of mean Ursaring. There were also some Phantumps and Trevanants in the Training Ground along with the usual wooded area staples of Caterpie, Metapod, Weedle, Kakuna, Paras, Pidgey, some Rattata of both variants, and the snake pokémon as well. Today was a day off from Torturing and Interrogating Idiots so she could train her team, and hopefully get her Bulbasaur egg to hatch! She did carry Quick Balls, those they imported from the Outside, mostly to catch pokémon like Abra, though she wanted them to catch Ditto.
Ditto could breed with just about any damned pokémon out there of either gender or the genderless ones as well like Magnemite for example. She just wanted Ditto because it could turn into her easily enough, and lead people on a wild goose chase if need be. Quick Balls may be more expensive due to importing them, but just for being able to catch Abra before the damn being teleported away was well worth the price, even for the genin, and they would work the Hellish Tora Capture Mission in order to get enough money to buy at least ten Quick Balls. She also loved her gift pokémon from Koga, he knew her so well. Having a male Nidoran, Stunky, Gulpin, Koffing, and Qwilfish was nice. The instructions on how to transfer them over to her ID, and she had also transferred the one for the Sandaime's grandson into his name as well. No way in Hell was Anko giving anyone the means of hunting him down.
It would be much better if the civvies never gained any idea as to where the Last Uchiha that had been in Konoha happened to be, not to mention her bastard traitorous sensei. Why he was so obsessed with immortality and learning every jutsu in the world she would never know. If she could get away with leaving the Elemental Nations she would. Konoha was filled with hypocritical assholes that really needed to die. Why the Sandaime allowed them to get away with so much she would never understand, as this was not a democracy, it was a dictatorship though the Hokage was answerable to the Daimyo. His advisors really should have been put down by this point, as they were greedy, selfish, ambitious, and downright toxic for Konoha.
Viridian Forest:
Ash was quite happy with his trip through the forest, his Dunsparce got some much needed experience battling Caterpie and Metapod while his Poochyena and Tentacool gained the experience they needed to unlock their next attacks, which for Poochyena was Bite, and Tentacool Toxic Spikes and Water Pulse. Once Tentacool got a better handle on Water Pulse he was so having her teach Water Pulse to Dunsparce, as Dunsparce could learn the move through tutoring. Ash was going to make damned sure his pokémon could handle just about anything, even if creativity was needed. One thing being friends with Naruko taught someone was how to think outside the box. He'd also found some items lying around on the ground, several silver powders after beating Caterpies, some nuggets, tiny mushrooms, TM's, Ethers, an Escape Rope, and he found a Beedrillite as well. What the Hell a Mega Evolution Stone was doing in Viridian Forest he didn't know, but he was so giving it to Shino. Auntie Green would be able to secure a Keystone easily enough.
Ash gathered some nuts and berries for his noon meal while letting Poochyena forage. He fed Dunsparce and Tentacool. He meanders his way back only to be surprised when his first egg starts to glow. He pulls his egg out, and enlarges the Luxury Ball on top of the egg case as the egg hatches. His eyes take in a small, blue, canine Pokémon. It has black legs and torso, a blue tail, and a yellow collar. It has rounded bumps on the backs of its forepaws. It has a black "mask" and red eyes. It stands on its toes instead of its entire foot. It is sensitive to a special type of energy called Aura; however, It does not have the ability to fully use these powers, although it can still emanate these waves to communicate and sense them, albeit only in ripples. It has developed two black appendages that hang down from its head as well. Ash pulls out Dexter and learns he has a Riolu, a Sinnoh native pokémon. Once he's scanned Riolu, learning his Riolu happened to be a very rare female, only twelve and a half percent of Riolu were female, he learns she has the ability of Inner Focus which prevented flinching, and has the moves Foresight, Quick Attack, Endure, and the unlocked egg move of Blaze Kick he's very happy.
" Riolu, I need to catch you in Ball at least once so everyone knows you're mine, okay? Then I'll let you right back out. "
Riolu nods, and Ash catches her before bringing her back out. He takes to the trees, tree hopping his way back to camp very carefully, as he did not want to inadvertently piss off the Beedrill. Tree hopping meant he could avoid battles, as he did not want anyone discovering he happened to have a Riolu just yet. Not everyone has a friend whose gambling luck is phenomenal after all. There was a reason why he and Shino had her enter contests for them, especially for something they really wanted. He was so hoping she won that contest for a Torchic Egg. That would be so sweet. There was also a contest to win an evolution trip, like say Sinnoh to evolve Eevee into Leafeon or Glaceon, or Magneton into Magnezone as well. Once his Eevee hatched he'd have to show them pictures of all the Eeveelution forms they could take, and let them choose.
He lands back in his tree climbing tree, and carefully drops down to the ground to see Shino awake, and with a new Heracross, which meant his first egg must have hatched. " Were your training endeavours successful? " Shino asks him.
" Yeah, they were, and my first egg hatched as well. Naruko's luck struck again, and I have a female Riolu. " Ash states, " Take this, Shino, as I will never have a use for Beedrillite. "
His human companions look at him, " You found a Mega Stone lying on the ground? " Shino asks, there was no tonal inflection, but Ash could discern his surprise.
" I did, Auntie Green should be able to get you a Key Stone when the time is right. I also found several Silver Powders after beating Caterpie as well. " Ash says.
" Generally Silver Powder is only held by Butterfree and Volcorona. Oh well, pokémon adapt all the time, otherwise Rattata wouldn't have a second typing in Alola. " Naruko admits.
" I don't question things like that, Naruko. I find helpful items I just pick them up, and don't question why I found them. " Ash deadpans.
" Fair enough, you don't care about the whys, you just know things work. You accept it and move on. " Naruko admits. When it came to pokémon she learned all she could without getting into the technological and engineering parts of things. She wouldn't mind learning how to make Apricorn Balls though. Being able to make her own Balls would cut down on costs a little bit, but not by much. Naruko chose being a Coordinator because she could utilize her inborn creativity better. Something that several tried to stifle within the confines of Konoha. Why so many kunoichi had a problem with the Sexy Jutsu when they could get sent on seduction missions she would never understand. A ninja used everything at their disposal, including their enemies hormones against them. So many kunoichi were damned prudes, and that genjutsu mistress whom had still been a chunin, Yuuhi Kurenai, she was the worst of the hypocrites.
She was all for women's rights, and yet just because a guy read porn they were a pervert. If they tried to have their way with her it would be one thing, but anyone whom read the Icha Icha books was a pervert in her eyes. Just because one read hentai did not mean they were an overt pervert. Naruko was actually glad to be out of Konoha, though Delia was almost as bad as Kurenai, which was saying something! Delia thought baring one's midriff was risque which was patently ridiculous! Naruko honestly thought that too many civilian values had infiltrated the Ninja Academy, as they were ninja, not fucking samurai! Ninja fought in the shadows and used every dirty trick in the book to make it back home, or clear a mission! Don't even get her started on those damned Ikebana classes. Unless a kunoichi was going undercover flower arranging was something they did not need. Poison immunities on the other hand was needed, and they didn't bother to instill that in their academy students, which was idiotic at the least!
