Wyndon Stadium, at the same time Lusamine detected the Anomaly in Alola
"Ugh..." Sonic groaned as his eyes slowly opened up.
The Blue Blur still felt off as he got up on his rear and shook his head.
'Why do I feel as though Knuckles slammed me on the head with Amy's hammer repeatedly?' Sonic thought to himself. 'What was I was doing again? Oh right, me and the others were taking on Baldy McNosehair as usual.'
Eggman was once again launching attacks on different cities via his Egg Carrier and had gotten his hands on both the Chaos Emeralds and the Master Emerald (which made him question how Knuckles lost it AGAIN). Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles headed off on the Tornado in order to intercept the doctor and grab the Emeralds from under Eggman. Silver had actually come by to their timeline as his future had gone south yet again. According to the time traveler, Eggman's latest weapon ended up causing an event similar to what happened with Dark Gaia's awakening but causing immense damage to the planet.
Wanting to make sure that this didn't come to pass, he went back in time to assist Sonic and friends in destroying it.
Shadow was also the Egg Carrier as part of a covert mission from G.U.N. to cripple the mad doctor's forces and (with his usual demeanor and reluctance) the Black Hedgehog joined the group to take Eggman down. They easily decimated waves of Egg Pawns as Tails flew around the flying battleship firing on any turrets with the plane's machine guns and and even using some new missiles to really due some damaged.
Unfortunately, Eggman had a last minute weapon system which used both the Chaos Emeralds and Master Emerald and unleashed both Metal Sonic and some of the old Shadow Androids against the four along with more Egg Pawns. Sonic and Silver tag teamed Metal as Shadow dealt with his android lookalikes and Knuckles with the Pawns. The weapon in question was known as the Chaos Breaker Cannon, which using the power of the Emeralds could easily blast apart Mountains with ease, even possibly destroying whole ranges and possibly countries at full power.
Being hit by something like that would easily allow Eggman to take down anything short of a Super form, so the group didn't didn't want to he hit by it and give Eggman the win he wanted. Of course, due to the obstacles they faced Eggman's weapon was about ready to fire.
Shadow, who saw an opening to attack managed to damage the machine with a Chaos Lance which struck where they were stationed.
Sonic couldn't help but groan mentally at Shadow's actions, but he and Silver had been busy dealing with Metal, Knuckles was facing off with scores of Egg Pawns, and Tails was busy not trying to get shot down by the amount of AA fire Eggman was throwing at him. So really Shadow was the only one to deal with the machine and with it nearly being ready to fire off he had to act quickly.
'Still, Shadow should have warned us he was going to pull that stunt.' Sonic thought to himself. 'Who knows what else would have happened to the rest of us.'
He then turned to the right and saw an orange colored dragon with a fire on the end of its tail. It was staring at him in confusion as it tilted its head at the hedgehog.
"Whoa!" Sonic exclaimed as he dashed to the side of the orange dragon as he wanted to get some distance. "Huh, you're a really small dragon compared to what I've dealt with."
"Char?" Charizard spoke in confusion.
"Do you not speak English?" Sonic questioned. Charizard shook his head in a no motion as sonic scratched his head while tilting. "Huh, you do seem to be smarter then regular animals. Maybe you're a special case or creature?"
Charizard nodded yes. It seemed to the Fire-Flying type that the being his trainer found was friendly and not hostile. He was planning on fighting if it proved to be the latter (though the sudden burst of speed did surprise him a bit).
"Charizard, everything-" Leon said as he walked into the break room and was surprised when he saw that the blue being he and the others saw land in the stadium was up.
"Hey, you're that human I saw before!" Sonic said as he pointed to the Chairman.
"Oh so you know what I am?" Leon said with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah, I've met humans before. Heck I have some who are friends where I come from." Sonic said while crossing his arms while noticing the outfit he was wearing. "You on a sports team there pal?"
"You could say that." The former Champion said with a smirk. "So care to say what you are stranger?"
Sonic then gave a kick flip in place and crosses his arms with a smirk. "I'm Sonic the Hedgehog, also known as the fastest thing alive!"
"Sonic huh?" Leon said as he smiled at the Hedgehog's attics. "Nice to meet you, I'm Leon and you've already met Charizard."
Said Pokemon then unleashed a small burst of flame from its mouth.
"So does he speak anything other then his own name?" Sonic questioned.
"Nope." Leon said while shaking his head. "There are times when Psychic-Type Pokemon are able to communicate via telepathy with their trainers once they really open with them, but a machine that can easily translate their speech into our languages hasn't been built yet."
"So these guys are like me in a way, special animals which can think and have unique powers." Sonic thought to him himself.
"Oh yeah, I was going to ask this earlier. You said you were a Hedgehog," Leon said while putting a hand to his chin. "what is that exactly?"
Sonic was quiet a for a few minutes before he spoke up. "Wow, you're serious." Sonic stated. 'This is definitely freaky, I mean Earth and Mobius have always had regular animals among the usual comparisons. Does this mean this world only has these Pokemon around?'
"Well you could think of creatures similar to Pokemon in looks but don't have any powers, no crazy colors in most cases, and definitely not as cool as your friend there." Sonic said.
"So they're basically Pokemon that are more subdued in how they look and have no powers?" Leon questioned.
"Yeah, so I guess you could say while I'm similar to a Pokemon, I'm not actually one." Sonic stated.
"I see..." Leon said with a knowing tone.
The Blue Blur then scratched the back of his head. "Admittedly, I'm not the best to speak about something about stuff in regards to knowing about normal animals, that's more for my buddy Tails."
"Tails?" Leon asked in curiosity.
"Oh that's right!" Sonic said as he facepalmed. "Was there anyone else that landed with me in the stadium? Guys that looked similar to me but one was yellow with two tails, a red guy with dreadlocks and spiked gloves on his hands, another that is black and red and a complete edgelord at times, and a sliver colored one with a head that looks like a leaf and has gloves with glowing blue lines on his hands?"
"Sorry Sonic only you came out of the portal." Leon said. "If there was anyone else, me and my friends would have seen them in the crater with you."
"Dang it!" Sonic said with a bit of bite to his voice. "I hope the others are doing alright."
Leon frowned a bit at Sonic's expression. Since he was in a new world that wasn't his own, he didn't have any clue as to where his friends might be. If he was in Sonic shoes with the Gym Leaders, Hop, and his friends missing, he would want to try and find them no matter what.
"Sonic, I know this whole situation is weird to the both of us." Leon said as he crouched down to face Sonic directly. "However, if you need the help to find your friends I know people in other regions which can help you find them."
"Really, you would be willing to help me just like that?" Sonic said in surprise.
Leon then grinned widely at that. "Yep, let's just say there is precedent for people like you and that we might have the chance to get you back to where you came from. I can tell that you're a good... Hedgehog, and I want to help you out. Plus, Charizard here feels the same."
The Fire Lizard Pokemon nodded at his Trainer's comment. He knew his Trainer was kind of guy to help others when possible and he would assist as well.
Sonic cracked a smile at that. "Thanks Leon, I owe and Charizard a big one. So what's gonna happen now?"
"Actually, I want to introduce you to some other people." Leon said as he got up. "We can also tell you a bit more about Pokemon as well if you're curious."
"Sure, might be fun." Sonic said with a smirk.
"Follow us then." Leon said as he stood up straight. He and Charizard then walked out of the medical room with Sonic following them.
Little did Leon realize, other Gym Leaders, Elite Four, skilled Trainers, and Champions would be dragged into a bigger adventure then they ever could have imagined.
At the same time at the Crown Tundra
"So what's the verdict there Sonia?" Victor questioned.
When Marnie and Gloria got back from their little walk, they had shown up with a particular blue diamond in tow. Sonia had been using a sensory device which was able to detect energy signatures and give accurate readings for it.
"Incredible! This gem has so much power behind it!" Sonia said in amazement.
"Is it really that big of a deal?" Gloria questioned.
"To be honest, this gem could provide more power then the Hammerlock Plant could make in a couple of decades!" Sonia exclaimed. "I don't know how you and Marnie found this Gloria, but this could be a real benefit to Galar. Provided we make sure to have the right equipment and machines to harness it efficiently."
"It almost looks like the type of flawless gems that I've heard Diancie is able to create." Bede stated as he looked it over.
"Could it be something akin to Wishing Stars?" Hop questioned. "I mean it fell from the sky."
"Hop if something like this was like that of Wishing Stars then it would give off the same readings." Sonia stated. "This is very different then Wishing Stars in terms of energy readings."
"Is there anything that's similar to it that ya know of?" Marnie questioned.
"Well the only thing that could produce something similar enough in terms of output would be the Adamant and Lustrous Orbs." Sonia said after thinking things over. "Either way, things are going to be quite interesting when we get back."
"Ya sound a bit energy-filled there Sonia." Marnie said with a small smile on her face.
"Ya bloody correct there! If anything, this could be a new discovery!" Sonia said with a smile on her face. "I wonder if this could lead to some new possibilities for energy production?"
"What the-!?" Hop said as he was checking the internet.
"What's wrong Hop?" Victor said, concerned for his friend.
"Guys, some kinda portal showed up over Wyndon!" Hop said as he showed them the images on his Rotomphone.
"Whoa!" Victor said with surprise on his face.
"What in Arceus's name is that!?" Gloria stated aloud.
"Hmm..." Sonia said as she looked at the photos of the portal that showed up. "That looks similar to the type of portals that have been researched abroad."
"You mean like those Ultra Wormholes that are studied in Alola?" Gloria stated. "Do you think it could be some kind of Ultra Beast that came out?"
"No, there's nothing about any Ultra Beast from what I can see." Hop said while shaking his head. "If anything, there wasn't any sounds of battle in the stadium or any signs of destruction inside or around the place. Besides, Lee and the other Gym Leaders were having a meeting about possibly competing in the PML so if anything did show up from that they could have been enough to take it down."
"Oh yeah that meeting was today if I recall correctly." Sonia stated while twirling her ponytail.
"Seems like no one as been allowed to go into the stadium since then." Bede stated from what he could see. "I'm guessing Leon must be having the League staff keeping the paparazzi from turning this into a circus."
"It's not just that though," Hop stated, "Gloria, you and Marnie said this fell form the sky earlier while it was glowing the same color right?"
"Yeah, something up Hop?" The girl with the green cap stated.
"People have begun posting that they spotted some similar streaks in the different regions." Hop said as he brought up said images. "Does this look like what you you two saw?"
The images showed similar streaks like the one the girls saw except in different colors. All told, there were about 8 streaks, one being much larger then the rest.
"Okay, that can't be a bloody coincidence." Gloria said simply.
"Wait," Victor said, "if you two found this gem which made the streak..."
"There could be 8 of these unique gems in total." Sonia finished.
"Should we head back?" Marnie questioned.
Victor thought about it for a few seconds. They had yet to find that particular Pokemon here in the Tundra and any sign of the mysterious Regi-based ruins. So if they left it would basically have been a wild goose chase and time waster. However, something in his gut told him that this couldn't be mere coincidence and that something big might be happening in the future.
"Let's head back to check on Leon and the others." Victor stated. "I'm a bit concerned about how things are with Leon and the others. Plus, I want to know what fell from the portal that appeared over Wyndon."
"Great, so ended up wasting time here after all." Bede sighed.
"Oi, don't be a complete wanker Fairy boy." Marnie said with a frown. "We can come back later to find this unique Pokemon."
"Alright, I get it." Bede said while rolling his eyes.
Sonia then spoke up. "I'll see about getting us an Air Taxi as the train's been delayed."
Wyndon Stadium - Main Locker Room
"So let me sum this up." Piers said to the other Gym Leaders. "A portal that looked like the Ultra Wormholes form Alola appeared over the stadium as you guys were talking about the PML, then this blue, furry thing popped out, slammed to the ground in front of you guys and then Leon brought the thing into the medical room?"
"Pretty much there mate." Gordie said.
Piers sighed at this. "Don't you guys think that was completely boneheaded? Who's to say it won't attack us when it wakes up?"
"Oh come now Piers," Opal stated with a wry smile on her face. "Leon said he had his strongest Pokemon watch over our mysterious friend and we all know how capable Charizard is in battle."
"Fair enough but still." Piers said while crossing his arms.
"Looks Piers, I get that you're worried about this but I bet we could handle things if it gets out of hand." Raihan stated.
Piers sighed at that since he wasn't going to convince the others. "Alright, but if it does go south don't say I didn't warn you."
"Hey guys!" Leon said as he walked out with Charizard behind him, grinning as always.
"Oh hey Leon." Nessa said with a smile. "I take it our mystery guest is awake?"
"Whoa! This place looks pretty fancy!"
The Gym Leaders then saw the blue being was now up and about, walking behind Leon. The Gym Leaders were a bit surprised to see he was already up and about, but they relaxed when it looked like the being wasn't dangerous.
"That answer your question Nessa?" Leon said with a smirk, to which the Water-Type Gym Leader shrugged.
"Huh, what's up with the color-coded uniforms?" Sonic questioned. "You guys trying for one of those Sentai shows or something?"
"Sorry there mate, not even close." Gordie said with a smirk. He could see this being was a bit like him in having a devil may care attitude.
"Everyone, this is Sonic the Hedgehog." Leon said while introducing the Blue Blur. "I actually spoke with him a while ago and turns out he is in a Faller."
Sonic looked at Leon with a raised eyebrow. 'Faller?'
"Really?" Milo said as he looked the Blue Blur over. "He looks like a blue Sandslash, minus the claws and with less quills."
"Hey I'm not a Pokemon pal!" Sonic complained.
"Really, cause you look like a Sandslash." Raihan said while looking Sonic over. "Still, you do have some Ace looking shoes. I could like a lot of likes while rocking those."
Sonic said while rolling his eyes. "Thanks for the complement there, but I don't know what a Sandslash even is."
"Really? Cause I don't know what a hedgehog is." Raihan said with a raised eyebrow.
"Oh right." Sonic said while recalling what he and Leon spoke earlier. "Still weird how you guys don't have regular animals here."
"See Sonic happens to be from another world, were there are beings like him that have powers like Pokemon." Leon stated. "However, there are creatures that are like Pokemon which also inhabit his world, but they don't have any special powers or abilities."
"Creatures that aren't Pokemon?" Kabu questioned.
"Yeah, he told a bit but he says he has a friend who is more knowledgeable about it." Leon continued. "But he says that beings like him have some abilities that are like what Pokemon can do. In a way, you could say they have superpowers like what you would see in comic books."
"Really?" Piers questioned. "And what pray tell powers does Blue there have?"
"Super speed if you're curious there punk rock." Sonic said with a smirk on his face.
"Okay then, so how fast can you go?" Piers said with a smirk on his face.
"Try Mach 1." Sonic said while folding his arms behind his head with a smirk.
The Gym Leaders were taken aback by that. Sure there are Pokemon easily able to break the sound barrier when they go all in like Pidgeot and Zeraora (the latter which can move as fast as lightning), but they were Pokemon. If Sonic could accomplish sounds like that and wasn't a Pokemon, then they were dealing with something out of their usual expectations.
"Wait. You can break the sound barrier!?" Gordie said, shocked.
"Yep!" Sonic said with a grin. "Wanna see it?"
"Actually let's not." Leon said while crossing his arms. "If anything, that could cause windows to break within a good sized radius and make people even more worried. So let's try that out in a more open and secluded area later OK?"
Sonic thought about it for a few seconds and realized that he would no doubt make things even more complicated. Not only would he cause the type of things Leon said, but it could make people here want to capture him, thinking he was some one of a kind Pokemon. "OK." He replied.
"Anyway time for introductions." Leon said with a grin. "Here's the friends I was talking about before. They're Galar's own Gym Leaders."
Milo started up as he cleared up his throat.
"My name is Milo, I'm Turffield's Gym Leader and farmer." Milo greeted with a cheerful smile on his face.
Nessa said afterwards. "I'm Nessa, a Gym Leader from Hulbury. Nice to meet you Sonic."
Sonic said with a smirk. "Do you get called Ness or Nessie as a nickname?"
"Well um..." Nessa said with a sheepish smile.
"Well Sonia called you Nessie when you guys were younger." Leon said.
"Leon!" Nessa said with a bit of red on her cheeks. "Don't say that out loud!"
This caused the others to laugh out loud, including Sonic. Nessa was a little fumed as her cheeks were still red. Thankfully the laughter down.
"Sorry about that Nessa." Sonic said with a sheepish smile.
"No its fine, I walked into that one." Nessa said while crossing her arms and glaring at Leon as he whistled. "Of course a certain SOMEONE had to bring it up."
Kabu then cleared his throat. "Moving on from that. My name is Kabu, Gym Leader of Motostoke."
"My name is Bea." The Fighting-Type specialist said while bowing. "One of the Gym Leaders from Stow-On-Side."
"I'm... Alistair, I'm also a Gym Leader from Stow-On-Side." The ghost loving kid stated. "Nice to meet you Mr. Sonic."
Sonic raised an eyebrow at that. Before he could ask, Leon spoke up. "They switch who is in charge of the gym there very Gym Challenge if you're wondering."
"I'm next then." Opal said with the usual sweet grandma smile. "I'm Opal from Bellonlea."
"I'm guessing you're a Gym Leader too?" Sonic questioned.
"Former, in fact dearie." The Theater Master stated. "I passed my title off to a young boy who truly embodied pink. While he might still have a bit of a streak going for himself, he has proven himself quite capable of preforming the role."
'Why do I have the feeling she would take a KEEN interest in Amy?' Sonic thought to himself while scratching his head.
"I'm next then!" Gordie said as he pushed up his sunglasses. "Name's Gordie, Circhester's rock-hard Gym Leader!"
"Wah ha ha!" Melony laughed while patting her son of the back. "Trying to make quite the impression as per usual eh?"
"MUM!" The Rock-Type Gym Leader said with a blush on his face while Sonic chuckled at the sight.
"Well I'll go next." The Ice Type User stated. "I'm Melony, I was the main Gym Leader from Circhester but have allowed Gordie to be part of the Gym Challenge on occasion."
"She's also the first member of his fan club." Raihan said with a toothy grin.
Sonic laughed at that as Gordie glared at Raihan.
"Well I'm next then..." Piers said as he spoke up. "Name's Piers as you heard prior. I'm the former Gym Leader of Spikemuth, where me and my boys are always ready to rock Trainers worlds." He then showed off a grin. "Though my little sister is now the Gym Leader proper."
"I should also state he cares about his little sister immensely." Opel said with a small smile on her face.
"Oh I see, so he's like a sister-complex?" Sonic said with a smirk.
"I'm standing right here! Don't make it sound like I just left the room!" Piers said with an upset tone. "Also, I am not a sister-complex! I'm just worried about how Marnie is doing."
"She's with her friends and rivals for a while now." Melony stated. "Let the little dears have fun before they come back alright."
"Fine..." Piers said while sighing.
Raihan then stepped up. "Saved the best the last, name's Raihan. The Dragon Master of Hammerlocke!"
"Is that why your teeth look sharp in some places?" The Hedgehog questioned.
"Yeah, I get that quite a bit." Raihan said with a smirk.
"Okay I see, nice to meet you guys." Sonic said while having his hands behind his head. "But uh, just one question."
"What is it Sonic?" Leon questioned.
"What's a Gym Leader exactly?"
Nearly 20 minutes later...
An Air Taxi soon landed near Wyndon as Victor and his friends got out. They then waved goodbye to the cabby as he and his Corviknight took off.
"Well, we aren't as close as I wanted but I guess we'll have to manage from here." Victor stated.
Alright then, let's get going to see if Lee and the others are alright!" Hop stated as he rushed on ahead of the group.
When they stated walking, they heard a strange sound that was coming in the direction of where they were going. Victor looked behind him as gasped as he saw a few missiles flying toward where Hop was going.
"Hop look out!" Victor said aloud.
Hop was taken by surprise from the incoming missiles but jumped out of the way at the last second. He was still blown away by the force of the explosion, but he was still okay. The others ran up to Hop as Victor helped him get up. Before any of them could ask if he was okay, they heard numerous heavy footsteps heading toward them.
"What the!?" Victor said as dozens of cartoonish robots surrounded him and the others.
"They almost look like Pokemon!" Gloria stated as she was forced to back up.
"Could they be similar to Genesect?" Bede questioned.
"No time to question things guys!" Victor called out. "Get your Pokemon out now!"
"I wouldn't try to use your little pets unless you want this to end badly Champion Victor."
The group soon heard a gruff sounding voice as a flying pod soon descended in front of them. The one piloting it was a rotund, bald man with a wild looking mustache and sunglasses on his head. He was dressed in a red and black attire with white and yellow bits on it.
"I hope I'm not interrupting your group's little errand Champion." Eggman said with a grin on his face to Victor. While he had been on new world for a short while, he was aware of the more recent events in Galar, including Victor's win against Leon and taking the title.
"What's up with that mustache? It looks like you stuck a fork into a electric socket." Hop stated.
"This is natural you purple haired twerp!" Eggman yelled.
"So who are you ya bloody chin-tosser?" Marnie stated.
"I am the great Dr. Eggman!" The mad doctor introduced himself while making grand gestures with his arms. "And soon you will know me as the ruler of this world."
"Doctor? World?" Sonia questioned to herself. "Does that mean he's from another world?"
"Wait, so he's one of those Fallers I've read up about?" Victor stated.
"I suppose so." Sonia said.
"Eggman?" Bede said with a chuckle while his right hand through his hair. "That has to be the most non-threatening name I've ever heard. Actually, since you look like one I guess you're fairly easy to crack yes?"
"Don't underestimate me you little brat! I have you surrounded!" Eggman yelled at them as he gestured to his robots. "So unless you want to want this to end badly, hand over that gem!"
"So you know about that gemstone?" Sonia questioned.
"Why of course!" Eggman said in a smug tone. "That gem the little country girl is holding is in fact, a source of power the likes of which you never seen! Of course, I happen to know full well it abilities compared to you so I'll take it off your hands before you make a rather immense mess of things."
Gloria held it closer to her body. "Sorry ya wanker but I know an evil bloke when I see em! You want it so bad, try and get it!"
"Ugh. Why can't I get someone that actually gives me what I want?" Eggman said while messaging his temples. "Fine then, know that you dug your own graves for this!"
The robots took aim at the team as they were starting to worry. "Now, any last words you brats?"
"Just two." Marnie said with a confident smile. "Morpeko, Discharge!"
The Electric/Dark Type Pokemon jumped out of a nearby bush and unleashed dozens of streams of lightning bolts into Eggman's minions. Several of them exploded and caused a large smokescreen.
"Come on mates let's go!" She said as they took off.
Sonia looked back with Yamper running beside her. She noticed that several creatures that looked like Pokemon appeared form the destroyed robots.
"What are those and why were they inside those robots?" She questioned.
"Might just be a good idea to get our partners out now." Gloria stated. "Inteleon! Mission time!"
"Cinderace, let's kick it!" Victor called out as he tossed his Poke Ball.
"Rillaboom, Let's play!" Hop cried out as one of his oldest partners appeared.
"Hatterene! Get ready!" Bede called out as he tossed one of his Great Balls out.
"Grimmsnarl! Let's smash this chin-wagger!" Marnie called out as she tossed out a Dusk Ball.
The Pokemon appeared beside them as they all ran toward Wyndon as fast as they could.
"After them!" Eggman ordered as the robots took off after the group.
At the Same Time back Wyndon Stadium
"So basically, you guys are skilled trainers who give badges to trainers who beat you in battle as proof of their skill, and the end goal for said trainers is to become the Champion of the region?" Sonic questioned.
"Pretty much." Leon shrugged.
"And Trainers are people who live, eat, and train alongside Pokemon as they have them participate in different competitions like battles?" Sonic continued.
"That's correct." Nessa stated.
"Not gonna lie, that does sound fun to participate in." Sonic said with his hands behind his head. "Also, glad to know that you guys treat Pokemon like family members and good friends."
"What do you mean by the latter?" Kabu questioned.
"To be honest, I was worried about how Pokemon are so okay with being basically pets." Sonic said while rubbing the back of his head. "I'm guessing that there are Trainers who abuse them?"
The Gym Leaders all sighed at that, clearly showing their dislike of the subject.
"Yeah, there are those Trainers who just see Pokemon as tools to win at battling and only care about strength." Milo said with a large frown on his face. "They're run into the ground by them and are either neglected or only get the bare bones level of treatment."
"Of course if those Trainers see their Pokemon was weak and useless, they end up abandoning them and breaking the poor Pokemon's hearts." Opal said with a frown.
Sonic grit his teeth at that. 'Sounds almost like what Eggman does to the poor little animals to power his machines.' He thought.
"Of course, they happen to be rather rare compared to those who love and cherish their Pokemon." Melony stated. "Trainers are taught from a a young age to take care of their Pokemon and treating them like slaves is to be punished and discouraged."
"Plus, Pokemon are quite intelligent." Nessa brought up. "They can tell if their trainer is abusive or cruel and can straight up leave them. Of course while some Pokemon are abandoned by particular Trainers, they are taken in by others who raise them right and usually has them beating whatever Trainer originally left them."
"Sounds like proper Karma to me." Sonic said with a small smile on his face. He was glad that his original thoughts on Trainers was proven wrong. Sure, there were bad Trainers, but they were the exception rather then the norm.
"Oh guys!" Leon said as he looked at his Rotomphone. "Hop sent me a text! He and the others are coming back early."
"Really!?" Piers spoke up suddenly.
"Yes Piers, your precious little sister is coming back." Gordie stated with a teasing smirk on his face. "So you don't have to sweat so much that your makeup runs off."
"Oi!" The Punk rocker shouted.
"Um guys?" Alistair spoke up. "I think Victor and the others might have run into a roadblock."
He pointed to the screen which was showing Victor, Gloria, and the others being surrounded by robots.
"What the-!?" Leon said aloud. "That's Hop and the others!"
"Marnie's in trouble!" Piers said in a worried voice.
"So looks like Eggman is making his move already." Sonic said as he crossed his arms with an annoyed look on his face. "Kinda thought I would have had some time to explore this place."
"Eggman?" Raihan said while crossing his arms. "Are you serious about that name?"
"Yes that is what he calls himself." Sonic said while shrugging.
Gordie laughed at that. "That has got to be the least threatening name for a villain ever!"
"Trust me, Egghead's name might not be threatening but he can really be a pain if you aren't careful." Sonic said.
"I'm guessing then you know the best ways of dealing with him?" Nessa questioned.
"You bet!" Sonic said with a thumb's up. "I'll make sure he makes like his hairline and recedes."
This made Leon and some of the Gym Leaders chuckle at that. "Well you heard him people, let's move!" Leon stated.
"Actually, I have a faster way of getting there." Sonic said with a smirk on his face. He then grabbed Leon's arm and got ready to run. "Hold on tight Leon!"
"Wait Sonic, what you do-ING!" Leon said as Sonic then ran out the doors while leaving behind a large amount of dust and wild behind them which covered the Gym Leaders. As they were coughing, they still heard Leon's screams getting more and more distant.
"Holy Arceus!" Milo stated. "He wasn't kidding about his speed!"
"We can focus on that later!" Raihan stated. "We need to hurry and help out our new Champion and his friends!"
"You all hurry ahead!" Opel stated as she brought out a Great Ball. "I'll have my Gardevoir teleport me there."
The rest of the Gym Leaders all nodded as they ran after Sonic while getting out two of their Poke Balls, ready to toss them out when they got to the battleground. Opel got out her Psychic/Fairy Type Pokemon and teleported away to the site.
Yeah I know, I said there was gonna be the fight scene this chapter and I lied. Sorry about that.
For those that are curious, I'm working with another author who has made a number of Pokemon fanfics, T1meslayer. For those that don't know, he's been making a fanfic around the Pokemon World Tournament with the different Trainers interacting with each other and battling. It's a good read and I've even helped a bit with it, coming up with a few ideas for him to use. He's also been a big help with editing the chapters for this story and making sure it looks good overall. He's also been doing one-shots, including a few for Pokemon and Fire Emblem and is working on a Fanfiction around Three Houses. You guys should check his work out, its good.
Basically, we're helping each other out. I help him with ideas and he helps me.
So yeah, the big fight will be happening soon as he said that fusing the two would make this one way too bloated (which is something I may consider doing to shorten the amount of time I spend on the chapters of my stories in general). So now you know.
As for Nessa's reaction to Leon mentioning the nickname thing with Sonia? Well you'll just have to wait and see.
Anyway, expect the next chapter soon along with a future chapter for Flight of the Twin Eagles.
Update: So after realizing that I had put down all eight regions from the main games and had Emeralds land in them, I decided to have one of them be the Master Emerald.
