Underleague
Chapter 23
Author Notes: So we have another chapter and another day for typing. We've now reached the igloos from the game, expanded for the sake of this story lol. I really wish there was some sort of underground tunnel then just a random transporter.
It was really weird haha. Shout outs to nathan . hunt13 for faving~ Also thanks to Rei-El Dreemurr for faving and following, as well as Gaming to the Max and dominic0401 for following. The support has been absolutely amazing guys! Ok so I do not own Pokemon or Undertale.
3rd P.O.V
It didn't take long for MK to guide Frisk to the Ice Chasms. Which wasn't very surprising, considering it was right in town. However she started getting uneasy seeing the sign posted in front of the cavern opening.
After careful consideration, the gym leaders of Snowdin have considered the Ice Chasms to be too dangerous as of this moment for exploring. Please do not venture forth unless told specifically by said gym leaders.
MK simply rolls his eyes at the sign as he walks forward. Only to halt at Frisk grabbing his sleeve while pointing at the sign. "Don't worry about it Frisk. I've been down there tons of times. The gym leaders are just reacting to some stupid rumors. Let's go!" She huffs, letting go of his sleeve and following him.
Together they ventured deeply into the dark. "Looks like we need some light." Reaching into his pocket he pulls out a flashlight. "Let's go~ We can tag team any pokemon that come our way and get some training in!" Nodding she follows him further, however something felt off.
Like...it was as if someone was watching them. No matter where Frisk squinted her eyes at in the darkness, she found nothing. To be honest, she wasn't all too scared of the dark.
There were many times she and Eve would take a stroll out at night in the little forest near their hometown. Just gazing at the stars. There were no stars down here, but the icicles that hanged from the ceiling when hit just right in the light were breathtaking.
Suddenly the children heard a terrible screech. "Whoa!" Something swooped down nicking her hair. "What was that man?!" Immediately Frisk pulled out her pokedex, before freezing in place when hearing a menacing growl. "What are they!?" She gulps, shakily holding out her ex machina.
Zubat the bat pokemon. Living in caves or dark places to avoid sunlight, these pokemon rely on ultrasonic waves to guide them as they have no eyes to see. They colonize in groups and are dangerous in clutsters.
As if confirming the encyclopedia the flying/poison pokemon shrieks, flapping about. "Ok, so then, where's the other one?" The second attacker pounces, snarling at them. MK's pokedex reacts as he swiftly dodges the attack.
Mightyena the bite pokemon and the evolved form of poochyena. Mighyena up on the surface used to travel in large packs and work as a coordinated team to attack prey. Now down in the Underground, their pack number is limited due to population control over territories. They are very ferocious when provoked.
MK grins as he pulls out a pokeball. "Alright, let's do this Frisk. I choose you- arbok!" Nodding Frisk follows suit. "Pincer!" The snake-crab duo faced off against their opponents, leaping at the two trainers command.
Meanwhile...
"He-hey you idiot...why are we coming here? It's too cold!" Asriel sighed, feeling very tired as he stood at the entrance of the very place his sister went to. "I'm more curious as to why you're out of your pokeball Flowey. If it's so cold you should go back in."
The sunflora huffs and crosses his leaves, scowling at his 'trainer.' "Hell no! Not when I get to see that so called Shadow Pikachu rip you apart." For a sunflora, Flowey certainly knew how to twist his smile maliciously. "How did you even hear about that?"
Asriel's just about ready to finger flick his pokemon for rolling his eyes when they hear something. "?" The two shift their gazes towards the opening. There, in a purple miasma...was a pikachu. Glowing white eyes, translucent tan flesh and a menacing giggle.
Right before their eyes, the demonic pokemon slithers back in, shrouded in darkness. "It's real? Are you serious!?" Asriel was even paler then usual. Sure he was anxious hearing the rumors from Sans, but he figured it was just a territorial pikachu that decided to pick a fight.
He really, REALLY didn't think there was a zombie-ghost demon pikachu! "Nice knowing the kids, well let's go back." Flowey tugs his trainers' pant leg, eager to not go inside. "No Flowey, if that-whatever it is lives there then I need to go in and get Frisk and MK out of there. If you want I'll return you to your pokeball?"
It was probably the most civil conversation the two have ever had since meeting each other for the first time. "I'm not a wuss, no way. Though I'll be more than happy to ditch you if we see that thing again." With an alliance(of sorts) the tag team stumbles into the chasms, Ariels's steps echoing through the darkness.
"H-hey idiot! Don't you have a fire type or something that knows flash, or even a flashlight?! We can't see nothing otherwise." The teen goes into his bag, pulling out a flashlight. "Here we go." However much to the pair's irritation(fear) the light flickered on and off. "The hell!?"
Mischievous giggling echoed once more through Asriel's ears, making him shudder. "I don't have a pokemon that knows flash, but-go sableye!" Flowey groans in dismay. "Not that idiot!" The gemstone pokemon greets his owner before sneering at the sunflora.
Their rivalry knew no bounds. "Sableye use will-o-wisp!" Obeying his masters command, the darkness pokemon waves his hands about, bringing forth little, purple floating flames. "Oh great, as if it wasn't creepy enough!" Both trainer and sableye ignore Flowey's comment.
"Lead the way sableye, we're going to need you to light up a path for us." With a happy grin the dark/ghost pokemon starts walking, taking note of the white eyes curiously staring at the group before disappearing completely.
Back to our heroine...
"Man that was awesome~ There's a good mightyena! Good dog." Frisk smiled as she watched MK interact with his newly caught pokemon, it was a nice thing to see. She could've caught the zubat if she really wanted to, but she decided to let it go.
Sure catching the pokemon probably would've been a great asset to her exploration, especially if they needed to get out quickly, but she couldn't. No, she wouldn't. Even though she was getting used to the ideas of being a trainer, she didn't want to just aimlessly catch pokemon.
What good would that have done for her? She wants to make bonds with her companions, the more pokemon one had, the harder it would be to spend time with them, and balance out ones affections.
Eve would always be her partner, but that didn't make Frisk want to give super special treatment to her over Allen and Pincer. All of them deserved love and fair treatment, it wouldn't be right to pick favorites and leave others uncared for.
And anyways the Underleague rules stated that trainers should only carry six pokemon, and with the gym leaders only the six one has on them would be permitted for battle.
Anymore than six automatically would be sent to her mom's pokemon lab, where they would be cared for and held until Frisk decided to do a switch off. She recalled both her mother and Asriel telling her about how the pokedex was able to take the pokeball, shrink it to size and teleport it.
She really didn't understand the logics behind it, but then again, she didn't create the little device, nor could she figure out how pokemon could come in so many different species and typings.
As of right now, Frisk wasn't too sure about capturing pokemon, she was still really inexperienced when it came to being a trainer. Frankly she didn't think she could handle taking care of so many pokemon.
"Ready to go Frisk? We've rested up enough." Nodding she rises, patting her pants to get rid of the invisible dust. "Right." A shudder ran through her as she began walking. For some reason, she could feel eyes on her.
It was spooky, but not something she wasn't used to. Back above ground during her nightly strolls she encountered many pokemon. "Runt!" Not too far away, just barely seen because of the flashlights a figure rushes past. "Whoa check that out Frisk!"
Snorunt the snow hat pokemon. These pokemon live only in cold environments, their diet consisting of ice and snow. It is said that a snorunt visiting ones home is a good omen and brings prosperity.
"I gotta catch it! Let's go Frisk~" Immediately the gung ho boy rushes forth, his eyes on the prize that is a new potential pokemon. "W-wait! MK!" She rushes forth, trying to catch up to his pace.
But she found out probably the most important reason why the cavern was called the "Ice" chasms, as she trips on a slick spot. "Ah!" She and her partner Eve tumble onto the ground, her flashlight clattering across the ground.
With a pained groan the ten year old blinks trying to adjust to the darkness. "Eve are you ok?" Her companion whines, shaking her body to get some snow off her fur. The fox pokemon nuzzles her owner, telling her she was fine. "Vee!"
Rising to her knees, Frisk looks about, searching for her flashlight in the pitch black cave. "Aww...it must've broke when I dropped it. I can't see a thing." Blindly her fingers search the cold floor, feeling for it.
Both her and Eve stumble about for a few minutes. "It couldn't have gone that far." Grumbling under her breath the young trainer squints her eyes, hoping to try and see something.
She stops after feeling a nudge to her side. "Huh?" Her fingers reach over, feeling frozen plastic and glass. "You found it! Good job Eve~" Gripping ahold of it, Frisk fumbles trying to turn it back on. "Eeeveee?" Frisk furrows her brows, noting that her pokemon sounded farther away.
"E-Eve?" The light flashes on suddenly, so bright it was as if she had just put in new batteries. Giving her a clear view of the little rag pokemon in front of her, giggling while swaying back...and forth. Back...and forth. "See mee~"
to be continued!
