Clash of Two Worlds

by An Anonymous Human Being

An average geek from the United States is pulled into the world of Pokemon by Arceus in response to a new threat in the Kalos region. Can he save the world from a ruthless and technologically advanced enemy, or will he fail in his quest? (OC interacting with characters from the games.) Will contain violence in later chapters.

Chapter 2: The Conflict At Hand

Unknown Time, Unknown Location

Arceus explained to Collin that they were in the realm of Pokémon, and began to tell Collin what was happening.

''Collin, I will make this short. There is a tear in the fabric of space-time, and elements of your world are merging with ours. If you don't choose to help us, millions of people in both areas could be in grave danger.''

''Why am I here?'' Collin asked. He assumed he was supposed to be excited about basically living out his dream, but he wasn't exactly comfortable with millions of lives riding on his actions.

''You may not be the strongest, or even the smartest person Earth has to offer, but I know everything about you, and I know that you are the right choice. '' Arceus stated.

Arceus then proceeded to explain the danger that Collin must face.

''This is the current conflict: there is a group of radicals in Kalos called the Industrial Reform Front. They believe in the enslavement of humans and Pokémon alike to further their goal of rapid industrialization across this world.''

''Normally, this group would not be capable of achieving their goals, because there are far too many humans that oppose them, but with the recent integration of elements from your war-torn world, they have the edge they need to succeed: your peoples' technology. They have the designs for artillery, advanced computer systems, aircraft, and even firearms, things that are nearly unheard of in our society.''

''What we need is a person that has the cleverness and the bravery to help humans and Pokémon alike in this coming conflict. This person is you.''

This puzzled Collin. ''I'm just an average kid, I'm not an expert on military hardware, I'm not strong, and I'm not that brave either…''

Arceus reassured Collin, saying that it wasn't strength or knowledge that made Collin special, but his heart and mind. Collin wasn't big on all of this ''heart'' crap, as his worldview had a logical, anatomical explanation for everything people did.

He considered the facts of the situation, and then responded:

''Okay, Arceus, where do I start?''
