Shoutout to PSIness11. His story, Project Living Weapon, has some real potential. So give him a shot. I liked it, you might too. I'm talking to you, my loyal 30 followers!
Chp 6: Red Industries
While Ash flew away on Charizard, He realized something. He had no idea where he was going!
Then again, he was only caring about making a scary impression. You wouldn't fear a man helping you, but a man of neither side? Thats different.
But now, he had different things to worry about. The Pokedex Brian was wearing on his arm? Charizard's flame form?
"Porygon, what was Brian wearing?"
"Brian was wearing the hardware for Pokedex-Connected. It holds a holographic pokedex, six collapsing mechanical circles for mega-stones, a holo-caster, and has wireless internet, for a price, or none if you are a Team Rocket member, but it can be so everyone pays. There is also special ones with hacking abilities. The hardware is in a factory in Mt. Silver. It was never put into production, and can still be accessed wirelessly."
"So, we can operate it now, and get money from this new Invention?."
"Yes. Would you like to start selling them, Cinder?"
"Well, its not like I have any money, and I can't break the law to get food, so yes. But why was it never used before?."
In the pokemon world, it was illegal to kill any pokemon that was not specifically bred for the eating or hunting purpose. Ash had only had the resources he had because there was no police on Crescent Isle and he had a farm there.
" What company name would you prefer, or would you like to be called 'Team Rocket'?"
"What about...Red Industries? No more things about Team Rocket. And get a 'special' one for myself. Can you do it in red?"
"Yessir. It should be coming within one day, due to our Drones. When will we release the product?"
"...Now?"
"Yessir."

4 Days Before Indigo League
"Hello, this is Amanda with Kanto News with an update on the Indigo League. Pokedex-Connected, a new pokedex hard/software, has been released. This new invention, released by 'Red Industries', is a bigger hit than the pokedex, the holocaster, and even the potion combined. Our experts say that 49 out of every 50 people will be getting the new item, and almost every single participant in the Indigo league will be getting Pokedex-Connected. Here, we have Gary Oak, heir to the Oak ranch, here to tell us why we have so many people getting this wondrous innovation. Gary?"
"Thank you for inviting me, Amanda."
"No problem Gary, but why is this new invention is getting so many hits?"
"Well Amanda, Pokedex-Connected is a new invention which can tell you everything you need to know. From cooking at home to battling it has everything you need. The reason why so many Indigo Participants are getting it is because that their schedules, pokemon moves, enemy info; everything you can possibly need is right there on your wrist. It's even able to come in a customizable color, for gods sake."
"Will you be getting it?"
"I intend to get it Amanda. It has space for all of my research and if I need to know anything else I can just look it up. Not to mention the space it has for Mega-Stones."
"Okay, thank you Gary. Thats the end of Kanto News for now. Come back later to find out more about the man who pulled the plug on team rocket."

"I'm gonna win the Indigo League! Im gonna win the Indigo league!" Max chanted as they made their way to the pokemon center to sign up.
"Blah Blah Blah, Blah Blah Blah." May said, shutting up her brother.
"Hello, how can I help y-"
Nurse Joy was cut off by Brock.
"Well, the're here to sign up for the pokemon league, but I need to get to the hospital bed fast, or you, Nurse Joy, will be the one causing heart attacks, know what I'm saying?"
Nurse Joy started to blush, but was saved of the opportunity to answer by Misty slugging Brock with her hammer.
Brock's POV
Oh my God! Am I gonna get her?! It's really gonna hap-
Brock's thinking was interrupted by Misty slugging him with her hammer, and, as she grew stronger over the years, was hit out the 'center like a batter hitting a home run.
He flew out the doors, and would have come to a painful halt if not for the fact the he flew right into a hulking, raven haired man. He was looking happy, but when he saw Brock, his face turned to a scowl.
"Thank you, kind sir." Brock said. "Really, I would have been hurt pretty badly if not for you. say, how about I introduce you to my friends? It's the least I can do."
Unfortunately, this man was not as kind as he seemed. "I'd rather not." He said, with an angry tone to his voice.
"That's no reason to be rude! Where are you manners? I'm trying to apologize. Lets just go."
Brock grabbed the mysterious man's hand. He was probably just like Paul. So he walked into the pokemon center.
"Misty, I think you owe this man an apology. I ran right into him."
Suddenly, Misty slapped him in the face. "Woman are not men! We aren't even distinguishable by you! All you think about is yourselves!"
Brock looked, and to his surprise, there was no-one there. " What? I knew he was a man! He was a fucking giant too!" Brock put his hand where the man was supposed to be ( the woman ) and found he wasn't there, just the girl.
Unfortunately for Brock the girl looked angry too. "Go ahead and mistake a man for a pikachu, you sexist bastard!" After that, she promptly ran away. As this happened, a strong, scary aura could be felt in the room.
This was commonly known as something that happened when a being of power (Legendary) was nearby. There were many 'oohhs' and 'aahhs', as people realized they were in the presence of a god, possibly multiple, but the gang was accustomed to it due to being with Ash. It was one of the reasons they told him to stop in the first place, they just never let them finish.
"Hey Brock," Misty yelled, "If you we were allowed in this tournament, I would personally kick your ass, Even Ash would turn over in his grave because of your mistakes. In fact, the legendary is probably here because you really made him turn over!"
The gang laughed.
"Now come on, let's go sign up"
The man in front of the gang chuckled to himself. He never knew his friends would fall so easily to illusions. All he did was manipulated Brock's senses and made himself look like a blonde jock.
"Could I see your pokedex, please?" Nurse Joy said.
"Sure." Ash simply answered.
" Well, Cinder, it's not everyday we get someone with only one pokemon and every badge in kanto, you know? And also, you feel the aura here? It's really strong here. I think it watching you! Do you have more than just the Kanto badges?"
"I have them all." Ash showed Nurse Joy the inside of his leather jacket, a space for every badge.
" Well then, I'm sure you're definitely not in this to lose, especially with the legendary that could be voting for you…." Nurse Joy stuttered as she looked at the screen and connected the dots.
"Wait... o-one p-p-pokemon? That's just plain i-i-impossible, unless you were so p-p-powerful...that...that aura...i-i-i-is y-y-you?"
"I'm not your everyday person." He winked, and the man called Cinder left, leaving Nurse Joy scared out of her wits of the person that was recently next to her.

"Hello everyone, and welcome to the Pokemon-League!"
A ripple of applause went through the crowd as Charles Goodshow announced the beginning of the Indigo League.
Charles waved his hands in front of him.
"Here, we have many brave hearts and souls, those of whom have either made it past all eight gym leaders, or helped in vanquishing team rocket! Although there was only need for one man, a deal's a deal, eh?"
Laughter ran through the crowd. It was always good to have a joke before a serious speech.
"But seriously, we thank the man who freed us of their abuse and theft. Anyways, let's start the ceremony!"
Roaring could be heard in the crowd and battle cries could be heard from the participants, except for one, later to be named as Cinder.
The man with the torch was about to light the flame when Moltres itself came down to light it, a sign of a good and dramatic tournament.
As Lance watched Moltres light the flame and a thousand cheers go up, he knew this was going to get interesting.
