Chapter Four: Fear cries as well.

Hello everyone! I'm baaaaaaack! (finally), sorry I was gone for so long, the creative juices just started flowing again, so here's a good and long chapter!

Also to give everyone an idea of the general layout of the TPG site, here's the description of each building so far!

-The RxR room: largest building, sits in the center of the site, and contains every game system created in pokemon history, is home to sets of bean bag chairs that lay in the far right corner, and is also containing the cafeteria, which takes up the rest of the space in the building.

-the camper's quarters: basically just two houses, one red and one blue, fitted with a few bathrooms, two sets of bedrooms for each gender, equipped with bunk beds.

-The VR building: the Virtual Reality building looks like a larger version of the battle simulator from Pokemon XD gale of Darkness, and enchanted with Legendary pokemon powers to make the simulations even more real (and to prevent any damage to the expensive equipment).

-The arena: The arena is a large concrete field that holds several different game related areas under it, like blood gulch.

-The forest: the set is near a large forest, making it useful for some challenges.

Another thing, I will be giving non contestant Pokemon (legendaries excluded) individual names, and the contestant pokemon will have last names in order to differentiate them from other pokemon of their species.

Any questions? Just lemme know!

"Eliminate Machoke?" Sylveon asked confused. Kirlia's little group, which consisted of Geodude, Sylveon and herself, were clustered around the N64, with Geodude fully focused on playing Ocarina of Time.

"It was his idea to sabotage the challenge. And he claims that it was all mine and Bisharps Fault!" Kirlia huffed. Sylveon gave her a perplexed look.

"While I agree Machokes idea was a bad one, Kirlia, you didn't have to go along with it." Sylveon stated plainly.

"Let's just keep an eye on him. If he want's to cheat again, we convince the others to eliminate him, if not, we could keep him in. Could prove useful in the future." Geodude said, not taking his eyes off the screen. Kirlia glanced at him, still looking flustered, but nodded in agreement.

"Geodude is a nice guy, and pretty smart" Kirlia said. "At least, he is when hes focu...Wait a minute...That's the most hes said since he's been here!" Kirlia said in shocked disbelief at her realization.

Machoke's alliance sat at the opposite end of the room, in the cafeteria. Meowth was scarfing down some fried chicken, Machoke was picking at his soup, and Rhyperior was snacking on some rocks.

"Alright, down to business. Whose next on our hit list?" Machoke asked setting his spoon down. "To be honest, I think we should go after Pelipper. He's the leader of the other team, and a decent one at that." Machoke reasoned. Meowth continued to chow down on his chicken, while Rhyperior seemed to be thinking.

"But what about Lucario, he did the speed thingy and took out that metal thingy." Rhyperior said stupidly. Machoke rolled his eyes but bit back a smart comment. "And? So he goes fast, big deal. He can only use that move so many times, then even a little fighting move can take him out." Machoke said resting his head on his hands.

Rhyperior shot a small glare at him but kept his composure. "But he was smart enough to do that thing where he beat us in da first challenge." Machoke sat in thought, then nodded his head slowly.

"Rocky's dumb, but has those small moments of inspiration." Meowth said picking at a bone.

"IT pains me to no end to keep this act up, but it's necessary. The less those two twits know the better." Rhyperior said in his smooth refined voice. "But I admit, Machokes getting on my nerves. Perhaps I need to get rid of him out of necessity..."

Meanwhile outside, Lucario was playing impromptu Volleyball with Pelipper, Kecleon and Gallade. Caterpie was sitting on the sidelines, laying on Onix's head.

Lucario spiked the rather large ball directly at Pelipper, who responded by uppercutting with his beak, sending it to Gallade. Gallade grinned and leapt into the air, throwing a psychic infused punch and sent it hurtling toward Kecleon. Kecleon attempted to intercept it, but it fell short, striking her and Lucario's side.

"4 to 1! Caterpie called out happily, while Onix watched on Excited. Lucario sighed, "Alright, you guys win."

"Aw yeah! Go us!" Pelipper said high fiving with Gallade. Kecleon pushed the "Ball" out of the small crater that had formed. "Shelgon, you alright? That last hit looked like it hurt." Kecleon asked concerned. Shelgon's legs burst out of her cocoon like body, her eyes swaying almost drunkenly.

"I-im fine. I kinda fleeew, right?" Shelgon stuttered out. Gallade and Lucario helped her regain her balance. "I guess. You like flying?" Gallade asked. Shelgon started to answer, when a loud shriek from the announcement speakers interrupted her.

"CHALLENGERS! REPORT TO THE VIRTUAL REALITY ROOM! CHOP CHOP!" Latios's voice boomed all over the camp.

"Gaaaaaaaaawd, cant they lower the volume on that crap?!" Gallade said clutching his ears.

The contestants filed into the VR room, sitting down and waited for the challenge to get over with. Latios flew in, with a peculiar looking Dark pokemon floating behind him.

"Well contestants, today's challenge is based off of the game Cry Of Fear, a popular indie horror game known for it's terrifying gameplay and atmosphere. Here beside me is the one who basically thrives on the stuff, meet Darkrai!" Latios said motioning to the regal pokemon, who in turn gave a small bow to the campers.

"Oh my, quite the looker we have" Kirlia said blushing slightly.

"I didn't think we would get to meet so many legends, especially not one as prestigious as Darkrai." Bisharp said, arms crossed.

"Doesn't' look so tough. I could probably take him." Scyther said sharpening his scythes.

"What a fruit" Stoutland said irritated.

"Thanks again for the help Darkrai" Latios said appreciatively. Darkrai nodded. "Of course, but after this our agreement comes into affect. You stay away from my sister, or else." Darkrai growled. Latios merely gulped, but continued on.

"For those who have already guessed, this is a fear challenge, but with a twist. Not only must you conquer your fear, you must defeat it in battle. Or if it's not something to be beaten, you must simply survive." Latios explained. Many of the contestants looked nervous, Caterpie especially.

"I don't do well with fear.." Caterpie said shaking.

Darkrai summoned a large comfort chair, and stood behind it. "Our first victim up is, Sylveon." Latios said smiling. Sylveon gulped and got up. She walked over to the chair, and sat down.

Darkrai placed his hands on either side of her head, and began to glow. Sylveons eyes started to get heavy, heavier, until finally she was out cold.

Latias brought in a large TV. "This will display the fear they're going through." Latias explained.

Sylveon opened her eyes. She was in a large, flowery field. The sky was filled with white, fluffy clouds, and the chirping of a few taillow filled the air.

Sylveon looked around confused. This place was positively beautiful! What was so scary about it? She walked forward, taking in the many aromas in the air. She smiled.

She started to lay down, when a cold, sinister voice cut through the taillow chirps. "Hello, my little Fairy." The voice was deep and rough, and dripped with malice.

Sylveon slowly turned around, and saw him. The massively large Luxray stood no further than ten feet away from her. Her voice caught in her throat, and only managed to get out a small squeak of, "H-Huntur..."

The Luxray named Huntur grinned savagely and strode toward the now shaking Sylveon. "Good to see you haven't forgotten about me. I was afraid I might have to..Punish you again." He sneered, sliding his tail under her chin, making her look up at him.

Outside, the contestants watched on. "This is just creepy. I didn't think she had a creepy ex boyfriend problem." Kirlia said shivering. Many others nodded in agreement, while Ditto just jiggled in place.

Sylveon trembled at the sight of him. Nevertheless, she tried putting on a brave face. "I-im not afraid of you Huntur. Your gone now, and im stronger than before." The Luxray simply chuckled, "Really now?

Then how come your shaking?." Sylveon backed up slightly, but Huntur kept pace with her, his smirk turning into a small snarl. "Youre no different then when you were an Eevee, weak then, weak now." Sylveon started to back away faster.

"Don't you dare back away from me, you little tramp!" He snarled, and sent a jolt of electricity at her. It struck Sylveon hard, forcing her to the ground. The electricity coursed through her body, paralyzing her. Tears filled her eyes, trying to remind herself this was just a bad dream, a distant memory...But then why was it so real?

Huntur snarled and started to charge up another blast. "You're going to respect me! Understand?!" He yelled. Sylveon struggled to her feet, flinching from the stray sparks. Her eyes, though still teary, had a small amount of determination in them. "No. Your not worth that respect." She growled, and started charging up a moonblast. Hunturs eyes widened in shock, then lowered in absolute rage. Both charged up their attacks to the maximum, and shot. The two attacks collided, causing a massive explosion, and sent Sylveon flying back.

Sylveons eyes shot open, tears streaming from her eyes. The other contestants stared in awe.

"Congrats Sylveon, you beat your fear" Latios said smiling. Sylveon slipped out of the chair, and walked to the stands, tail between her legs.

Current score: Red: 1, Blue : 0

"That was..Really hard to watch." Lucario said rubbing his shoulder.

"That girl is tough. She's earned my respect. " Bisharp said, looking a bit uncomfortable.

Stoutland said nothing as he looked down.

"Alright, next one up is Shelgon." Latias said checking Shelgon's name off of the board. Shelgon shambled up, not looking nervous at all. Darkrai sent her into dream land.

The contestants looked at the screen, and saw Shelgon gorging herself on Rare Candies, an entire mountain of them!

"Damn, Can she eat that much in real life? That's just disgusting." Machoke asked disgusted, earning him a disapproving glare from Pelipper, a big eater himself. Finally, Shelgon finished the entire mountain of candies. She stood for a moment, shaking excitedly. A few minutes passed, and nothing happened. Shelgons eyes darted back and forth. "W-why am I not evolving?! Where are my wings?!" She shrieked, running around, jumping up and down, trying to get airborne.

Finally, Shelgon slumped in defeat, crying and muttering: " I can't do it, I can't do it!

And like that, She woke up.

"Shelgon, you lose. Had you paid attention, you'd have noticed an Everstone hanging around your neck". Latios said chuckling. Shelgon merely looked down, and waddled over to the stands.

Score: Red 1, Blue 0.

"I have no sympathy for that one," Scyther said plainly.

"Next up is Machoke." Machoke looked nervous, but nonetheless sat in the chair.

Machoke opened his eyes, only to be blasted by a powerful psychic blast. He went flying, hitting a steel wall, and collapsing on the ground.

He struggled to get up, gasping for air, and as he got up, his eyes widened in fear. There standing before him, was Mewtwo. The clone pokemon was glaring daggers at the muscle pokemon, blue psychic energy illuminating his eyes. "Get up! I'm not done with you thief!" The enraged Pokemon snapped, loosing another psychic blast, which Machoke barely dodged.

Machoke ran as fast as he could, the psychic pokemon right behind him. "I give up! Igvieupigiveupigiveup!" Machoke yelled frantically.

Machokes eyes snapped open, he was panting hard. Most of the contestants, his alliance included, gave him a deadpan look that spoke one word, 'Really?'.

He retreated to his seat embarrassed. Latios was trying his best not to burst out in laughter while Darkrai looked bored.

The score was: Red: 1, Blue: 0.

Next up was Lucario. The Blue Wolf opened his eyes too a Noctowl sitting in a chair, giving him a stern look.

"Principal Towa?" Lucario asked very confused. "What am I doing here?"

"Don't play dumb Riolu. You know why youre here." Principal Towa said gravely. Lucario looked down and saw that he was a Riolu again!

Before he could speak up once more, Towa resumed speaking. "Because of you, that poor little Durant boy will never be the same. I've told you time and time again, your bullying and brawling had to stop. I've suspended you, given you multiple detentions, even sent you off to juvie, and even then you didn't stop. Now that little Durant is in the hospital with multiple broken legs and a fractured antennae. He'll be lucky to function right ever again!" Towa said giving Lucario a piercing glare.

Lucario was speechless. He couldn't have hurt someone so bad! "I...But I...I couldn't have done that! I-" Lucario began, but Towa hastily cut him off. "Shut up, the police are waiting outside. As of this moment you are no longer a student at this school, but you are now a resident at the local prison. Enjoy your time there, you little miscreant." Towa said stiffly.

Two Arcanine stepped in and gripped Lucario by the scruff of his neck, dragging him out. Lucario just stared forward, horrified.

Lucarios eyes snapped open, he was sweating profusely. Most of the contestants were staring at him with mixed confusion. Lucario simply looked down and sat at his seat, receiving glances from his team.

Score: Red 1: Blue: 1.

"I can't tell. Is his fear hurting people? OR jail? Or just school?" Caterpie asked.

"That was...Weird..." Pelipper said deep in thought.

Zoroark just typed on her computer, taking advantage of the long confessional times during challenges.

"Alrighty then, Geodude, Rhyperior, Onix, and Delcatty, you four are up." Latios said crossing their names off the list.

"But...Why all of us at the same time?" Delcatty asked looking nervously at Darkrai. "Because you four all have the same fear, now move it!" Darkrai said impatiently. The four Pokemon sat next to Darkrai, Onix excluded, he simply laid his head near him. Darkrai closed his eyes and allowed his dark aura to surround them.

The four Pokemon all woke up, they were in a very deep chasm. Onix stretched to his full length, but even his massive form made it barely halfway up the hole. Delcatty looked around fearfully, while Geodude simply crossed his arms. Rhyperior spoke in his stupid voice "What's gonna happen to us? Why are we all down dis hole?"

"Is he too stupid to even know his own fear?!" Stoutland asked incredulous.

As Rhyperior spoke, he felt a small drip fall on his head. Delcatty looked up, and a small drip landed on her nose. More drips fell, then they became a hard rain, and then they became a downpour!

The bottom of the chasm started to fill up quickly, with Rhyperior, Delcatty, and Geodude all freaking out! Onix looked for any ridges he could slide along, but the ground chasm was as smooth as could be. Geodude rushed up to Rhyperior, trying his best not to freak out. "Listen, I need you to throw me as hard as you can upwards!" Rhyperior: "But why?" The water was up to Geodude's face, so he lifted himself up with his hands. "We need to get at least one point, im light enough for you to throw me all the way to the top!" Geodude said, panic in his voice.

"This was a double edged sword for me. If I threw him, it could have meant that I would miss, and he would simply fall. If I refused, we would have been out a point. Either way, it meant I could be on the chopping block for the evening if we lost..." Rhyperior said irritated.

Rhyperior finally consented and grabbed Geodude, aimed, and threw him. Geodude went soaring through the air, speeding past Onix, going higher and higher. 'I'm gonna make it! I'm gonna make it!' He thought grinning. "I'm gonna make it! I'm king of the world! Woo hoo! Woo hoo! Wo-AAAAGH!" Geodude screamed as a large torrent of water splashed right into him. His momentum slowed, he was three quarters of the way up the chasm. He threw his arms out, grasping for the wall. His fingers dug into the hard wall, and there he hung.

Outside, Red team was cheering. Geodude was performing spectacularly! Blue Team on the other hand, just watched on as Onix seemed to just stretch up futilely as the water rose. Delcatty and Rhyperior had already disappeared below the water, neither able to swim.

Geodude started climbing, his arms straining from his now heavier and dripping body. Onix looked down at the water, it was close to his neck. He grimaced, thinking hard.

"I DONT LIKE WATER!" Onix said, his horn only in the confessional.

Geodude was now nearly to the top, he was going to make it! Onix on the other hand, sucked in a large intake of breath., and slipped beneath the surface.

Outside, Blue team was yelling incredulously. "Why isn't he doing anything?!" Pelipper said confused.

"Actually, he may be onto something..." Gallade said, earning him questioning looks from his team.

Geodude was ten feet from the top, his arms strained with pain from the long climb, water splashing all around him and making his stone body leak mud and small pebbles fall off his body. He was in unimaginable pain, but his determination kept him going.

Down below, Onix had curled himself up, and watched as the water rose more. 'Just a little longer...A little more...NOW!' He thought, propelling himself upwards, and shaking his tail as hard as he could.

A large splash sounded behind Geodude, and what felt like a freight train slammed into his side. The force of the hit catapulted him up and over the hole, making him land on the outside. Geodude panted and flopped onto his back, a smile on his face...at least until he saw the 2 tons of rock that was Onix falling towards him.

Onix and Geodude awoke at the same time, and were met with the cheers of both their respective teams. Delcatty and Rhyperior had already woken up and sat back down.

The score was tied up, Red with 2, and Blue with 2.

Latios crossed out more on his clip board and nodded to Onix and Geodude approvingly. "Good job the both of you, and sucky job to you, Delcatty and Rhyperior. The feline and rock monster both scowled, while Onix's tail wagged. Next up was Porygon.

Porygon was on a stainless steel table, wired down. Tall, shadowy humans stood around him, simply staring at him. Porygon's eyes darted side to side with fear.

One of the humans reached out and grabbed a small electric saw, and switched it on. Porygon tried to struggle, "No, please cease, desist! I do not desire this!" He shrieked in his monotone voice. But the small saw had made contact with his hard body. Sparks erupted from Porygon's side, the saw cutting down his right side, and Porygon screaming. "ERROR ERROR ERROREROORROOEEROEOROEOROEOROEEEEE!" He shrieked, his monotone getting louder until it was a crescendo.

The saw cut a square in Porygon, and the humans started to pull out his components, his hard drive, his emotion chip, and such. Soon he was completely empty, yet he himself was still functioning.

The humans then started inserting more parts into him, and finally closed him off. A file program booted into Porygon's eyes, and it simply stated...Welcome to Windows Vista.

Porygon woke up and immediately flew off. "Um...Well he won, so the score is now Red with 3 and Blue with 2. Next up is Zoroark." Latios said.

Zoroark walked to Darkrai, however Darkrai simply shook his head. "She doesn't need to participate" He said. Latios and the rest of the contestants gave him a quizzical look.

"She's been living her fear for the past couple of years, so just go ahead and give her the point" Darkrai said nonchalantly. Latios looked really disappointed at the loss for torture as Zoroark sat back down without a word. The score was now 3 to 3.

Up next was Kirlia, she opened her eyes to a lavish bookstore. All around were banners with her face on them, and they all read, "Today only! Miss K. Icola book signing!"

Kirlia could barely contain her excitement! She had actually written a successful book! She looked in front of her, but no one was there. The book store had people in it, yet no one was even glancing in her general direction.

People walked past her, not even sparing her a glance. It seemed like several hours had passed. Kirlias spirit slowly sank. She watched as they passed by her table.

Suddenly, she was engulfed in flame, and the book store exploded.

Kirlia jolted awake and fell out of the chair, while Latios was rolling with laughter. Kirlia stared at the Eon pokemon with wide eyes, "What the hell just happened?!" She demanded.

Latios wiped a tear from his eye, and tried to regain himself. "Your fear was boring as hell, so I spiced it up with some, EXPLOSIONS!" He chuckled. Darkrai gave him a dull stare and murmured, "idiot..." The score was now, Blue 3, Red 4.

The next few fears were rather uneventful, Gallade experienced several rocks being thrown at him at hyper speed, and just barely survived, making the score 4 to 4, Pelippers fear was gathering fish and being attacked by a Sharpedo, and didn't get his team a point, and Gyarados was turned into a magikarp. The score was now 4 to 5, Red in the lead.

Meowth was whispering amongst Machoke and Rhyperior, "So, I've been thinking. Maybe we need a fourth member." Meowth said as quietly as he could.

"Why?" Machoke asked with a small snort of derision, "Were plenty big enough". Meowth raised his paw and started counting on his three fingers, "Alright, 1: If the entire team decides none of us are good. Then there is nothing we can do too stop em. If we have a fourth member, then we could have a slight advantage in votes. 2: if our team fails, we have a scape goat if we can choose the right member.

"Pretty sure we have rocky as the scape goat." Machoke said with a slight grin.

"Lets discuss this after the challenge" Machoke whispered back. Ditto and Stoutland had just gotten done with their challenge. (Stoutland was afraid of the blob, and Ditto filled the part., Stoutland breezed through it as Ditto just transformed into jelly.) The score was 5 to 5 now, all tied up.

"Man, we have a lot of pansy contestants, so few of you have faced your fears!" Latios laughed, earning him death glares from every contestant. "Anyways, Meowth and Phanpy, you're both up."

Meowth and Phanpy both opened their eyes to a dinner scene. Candle lit diner, full course serving of ceaser salad, breadsticks, and a pot of soup. Both Meowths and Phanpys eyes widened in fear.

"WHY?! WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE A DATE?!" Meowth shrieked!

Both gulped and stood stock still. They were both trying their best not to bolt from the table. Eventually Meowth worked up the courage to pour himself a bowl of soup. "U-um...Soup? " He stuttered.

Phanpy slowly nodded her head. They ate in silence. The sound of soft slurps and clinking dishes. Eventually, one of them spoke up.

"So uh. Wh-what do you do?" Meowth stuttered. Meowth looked at his "Date".

"I-I, I participate in soccer at my school." She stuttered back. The date started to go smoother. Slowly they got more comfortable with one another, talking about several subjects.

All the contestants watched, some with smiles on their faces, some with confusion, and some just didn;t care. Machoke watched on with a smirk on his face, and whispered to Rhyperior. "I think Meowth just found our fourth member."

"Unexpected as it is, it is rather fortunate that Meowth is making friends. It opens up the possibilities for pawns." Rhyperior smirked.

Eventually the date was over with, it went extraordinarily well, with boy teams earning a point. Darkrai gave the two a thumbs up, while Latios looked dejected that nothing happened.

Meowth walked back to his little group with a skip in his step, Machoke gave his friend a grin. "Good going buddy. "Machoke commented to the grinning feline. Rhyperior put on a fake grin, "Are we gonna get her ta join us?" Meowths face turned serious.

"We need another member, but...I dunno, Phanpy is a really nice girl..." Meowth said blushing.

"I dont think so, shes on a different team and all, I dont think she would make a good scape goat" Meowth said nervously. Machokes grin grew wider. "Sounds like someones got a crush.". Meowths eyes grew to the size of plates.

"Joy, one of my lackeys is smitten. He could be less useful to me like this, and I dont see how I can convince Machoke to vote his friend out. Perhaps some sabotage will be necessary for the little elephant..." Rhyperior pondered.

The score was 6 to 6. Up next was Kecleon, whose fear was being buried alive. She didn't last long. Next was Bisharp, whose fear was fighting a Slugma. She won and brought the score up to 6 v 7, Reds favor.

"Down to the last two, Scyther, Caterpie. If you two cant get points you win the round for blue, if either of you fail it will be a tie, and I get to decide the winner" Latios said smiling. Caterpie was shaking, but Scyther looked determined. Darkrai put them both to sleep.

Caterpie opened his eyes to a blazing, smoking forest. He stood up straight, and watched as the giant fires raged around him, getting closer and closer.

"OH god, oh god, not this please! Caterpie wheezed, the smoke hurting his lungs and eyes. He couldn't see any escape, the flames were covering everything.

Scyther was flying through the raging woods, he was trying his best not to panic, keeping his atttention focused solely on the openings of the forest. The heat was starting to get to him, but he knew he could make it out.

Caterpie was shaking, he was postivley terrified! The flames were less than ten feet away from him now, slowly inching forward like a shark circling it's prey. He tried to hold back the tears but failed, and felt the cool tears slide down his face.

Caterpie closed his eyes, hearing his older brother Beedrills voice echoing through his mind, saying he was weak, nothing. He wouldn't make anything of himself...

"No!" Caterpie shouted and started spewing string shot everywhere, trying to make a sort of barrier. He was spraying everywhere, but the fire just burned it up.

Outside, the contestants watched apprehensively as Caterpie was failing to stop the incoming fire. "Cmon little buddy, you can do this." Lucario said anxiously. Gallade nodded, and started chanting Caterpies name along with the rest of blue team. Even some of the red team members started cheering Caterpie on.

Caterpie Spewed more string shot, covering himself. He realized his folly as the silk started covering him, he couldn't move! Struggle as he might, he was stuck. The flames were only five feet away now, with Caterpie laying there, struggling. A bright light enveloped Caterpies vision.

Scyther could see the exit, he could see sunlight Piercing through the trees. He grinned and picked up his speed. He blew past the last branch and skidded to a halt once he was safe. He smiled and started cheering. Scyther looked around but didnt see Caterpie.

"OH shit! Caterpie!" Scyther said ruing back in.

Scyther bounded off his chair and slammed head first into the wall. He slumped down, stunned.

Lucario and Kecleon helped Scyther up, who groggily said, "D-did we win? Is Caterpie okay?!"

Latios smirked and pointed to a green cocoon siting on the chair, "I believe you mean, is Metapod alright?"

"Scyther stared incredulous at the new pokemon, which gave him a small nod, "I'm fine Scyther". Lucario sat Scyther down and began to explain. Caterpie in his adrenaline rush, inadvertantley generated enough power and fear to evolve, which is an automatic point.

"Since Metapod is here now and Scyther passed his challenge, the score is, Red 7, Blue 8, Blue team wins! Latios announced. Blue team cheered, while Red team groaed.

"Red team, you're sucking. Meet me at the arcade in an hour."Latios said floating off with Darkrai.

Gallade was carrying Metapod, as Metapod had no way of walking on his own. They were chatting about Metapods surprise evolution, when Scyther walked up to them.

"Uh, hey Gallade? Can I talk with Cater-er-Metapod?" Scyther asked looking down.

"I guess, but its not really for me to decide, ask Metapod." Gallade said holding the cocoon out.

Metapod gave Scyther a quizzical look at Scythers shy demeanor, "Sure Scyther, Gallde could you set me down?"

The sword arm pokemon obliged and walked out of ear shot, waiting for the signal to pick Metapod up again.

Scyther sat down in front of Metapod so he could talk to him face to face. "Listen, i'm uh..I'm sorry for leaving you back there..." Scyther said sullenly.

"Why are you sorry? I had to find my way out." Metapod said confused. Scyther rubbed his scythes together uncomfortably.

"How could you? No offense to you, but if you started out like me, you were surrounded by flames with no way out. Me, I was trying not to panic and get out alive..." Scyther retorted. Metapod just gave him a few blinks, as if shaking his head.

"Listen Scyther, I'm not mad at you. You were scared, and so was I. We won anyway, and it wasn't real. So I'd say everything ok.' Metapod said happily. Scyther gave a small smile.

"Alright Metapod...Still feel like I owe you something." Scyther said getting up. "Well, if you wouldn't mind, could you get me a soda?" Metapod said cheerily.

Scyther nodded smiling and went to retrieve one. Gallade came back and picked Metapod up.

"Can you even drink when you're like this?" Gallade asked, earning a sweat drop from Metapod.

Red team had gathered in the cafeteria, all of them silent. Latios floated in, carrying a plate of Poffins.

"Alright, you've been here enough to know the drill, whoever doesnt get a snack has gotta go." Latios said grinning.

Kirlia:"I voted for Delcatty, she did 't even try in her challenge."

Machoke: "Porygon, his fear was stupid".

Delcatty: "Porygon. Don't really know who else to vote for".

Gyarados: "STUPID BIRD THING!"

Geodude: "Delcatty."

Bisharp: "Porygon."

Sylveon still looked a little shaken. "Porygon".

Rhyperior: "Porygon, I realized just how much of a threat he was today. He's a super computer, and if given the chance, he could find different technical ways to win. OR at least, he could work out my alliance."

Everyone aside from Delcatty had gotten their poffin. Porygon wasn't in the room.

"Well, can someone go find Porygon and tell him to get his ass in here?" Latios said annoyed.

"Here I am!" A monotone voice said. Everyone looked at the doorway, then stared in surprise. Standing in the doorway was Porygon2.

"Apologies for being late, I decided to upgrade myself after that harrowing experience." Porygon2 said, his voice now laced with a British accent.

"Well then, Porygon2 you are the one going home." Latios stated. Porygon2 looked dejected, while Delcatty looked relieved.

"...Is what I would have said, had you not evolved. You now have automatic immunity due to your surprise evolution." Latios said smirking

Delcatty stared in disbelief, while Porygon2 twirled happily. Rhyperior glared at the little robot.

"Great, another plan went wrong. This could be a serious problem. Now I need to tell those two twits of mine of our new target." Rhyperior said annoyed.

Delcatty walked out to the van of shame. As she entered, she saw the van was filled with bottle of water. She shivered as it took off with her.

Machoke, meanwhile was walking to the back of the Red teams living quarters, where Rhyperior was waiting behind some bushes.

"Alright, whats so important you call a meeting during dinner?" Machoke asked annoyed, leaning against a tree.

"I thought maybe the robo bird guy could be a treat." Rhyperior dully stated.

"I think you mean threat. And I suppose he could be, Porygons are known only for their intelligence...This is actually a really good idea. Alright, Lucarios off the list for now, were going after Porygon2. Ill pass it onto Meowth." Machoke said getting up. Rhyperior hid a sinister grin behind his arm as he stretched.
