Chapter 2: New family
Year 1 Part 2
Then I begin to plan anew. I know that the world is infamous which is still a 'save' world because unless you are really really stupid you can just gather power and train in using them without a high chance of catching death.
But it is after infamous jump chain that I am worried about since most of the world have quite a good chance you might die. I have already plan out (mostly) these 2 world.
Well... screw it. I will wing it. Though I should see about getting companions soon, I don't know how some SI can talk about multi verse travel without feeling lonely. Sure the past few day I have Lecti keeping me complaining and the amount of work keep me from thinking about it but a human companion would always be better.
"Di..." A lazy sounding voice pull me out of my planing and causes me to look towards the newest member of my team - Ditto. I remember how I caught him...
Flashback
The exercise that Lecti have done shown and I was fairly sure that Lecti have learn what move she can and refine them to a suitable level. Honestly, I myself is surprise at the fact it only took us 4 months to reach this level but I suppose the credit for this is the random near daily ambush by the Zubat swarm.
Not to mention, the Zubats are a bit stronger now and much more cunning now. Not a threat? Sure, but they are much more annoying since they attack 7 or 8 at a time with 2 to 3 distracting me with the rest attacking Lecti. I haven't kill a single one of them since they started doing this.
The added danger sense we gain is okay though and we literally don't let down our guard anymore like a well train reflex.
I then decided that it is time to head into the Cerulean Cave since Lecti is now strong enough to fight the stronger Pokemon in the cave and that I'm about to use the thunder stone that I bought on him to evolve him. After that he would need to retrain his moves so to better fit her new body so bringing in new member now is a good time.
When we reach the cave we found a Ditto right in front of us the second we walk in. Of course the little bastard acts like he is asleep and before I can try to catch him, he transform into one of the Zubat hanging around on the ceiling as is normal for a cave like this and screech at us causing the Zubats in the cave to attack us. Then he flew into the cloud of Zubats. And... vanished. Or at least cause us to loose track of him.
Just when we think that things can't get worse, The Zubat swarm came to attack us. Thoroughly, they have shitty timing. People would normally say that they are just Zubat, that they can't do much damage etc. But did anyone have try to endure Supersonic from over 80 Zubats while some of them are attacking you using Bite or Wing Attack. It gotten confusing for the both of us very fast. Lecti don't have any AOE attack so she is not taking them down enough for it to matter. My Psionics fare better against them, my telekinesis took out a few at a time by slamming them downwards towards the floor while my telepathy distracted them courtesy of me suddenly shouting inside their mind.
It took us both 2 hours to finish the last of them. This event really shown me that we need backup and that Ditto will pay for the trouble he cause us. Progressing further into the cave, it got darker and darker until we can only see about a meter or 2 in front of us. We took it as a training lesson in fighting or walking really without bumping into things and falling down. On the way, we did get attack by several Pokemon suck as Raichu, Arbok and many others. We defeated them easily and collected their DNA. We kill a few of them for food since I was wondering how different Pokemon taste like. We saw the Ditto a few times on the way but every time we gotten near, it was already long gone leading us deeper and deeper into the cave.
When we reach the deepest part of the cave, there was a cavern with a big lake in the middle while the despicable Ditto was in front of us. We was ready to kill the little bugger but he then transform into a Zubat while using Supersonic into the lake. This action woke up the boss of Cerulean Cave which is a Mega Gyarados with a Gyaradosite on his head measuring about 10 meter in height. It is larger than average and should sell for a lot in the black market if it is a normal huge Gyarados but the Gyaradosite in itself is at least 10 times more valuable. The 2 together can sell for enough that I can fund a small country or two for a few years.
Lecti as a Eevee have a low chance of beating Gyarados, thus, I have no choice but to use my Thunder Stone to evolve her.
'Thunder Shock.' I immediately gave her an order. Although Lecti's Thunder Shock is not as powerful as it can be since she was just newly evolve and I did not have enough time to train her move yet. Gyarados then keep on attacking using Hyper Beam continuously which just add another list to its abnormality. Jolteon are not only Electric type Pokemon but also a Lightning Pokemon making their speed as one of them top tier speedy Pokemon. So, Lecti easily dodge the Hyper Beam and return it with Thunder Shock and Thunder Fang but except for making the Gyarados scream in pain, it does not seems that it did much damage. I was hiding since I am not sure I am able to dodge continuous Hyper Beam.
It would have been fine if Ditto did not then call me out to the Gyarados. The Gyarados then turn to me and fire Hyper Beams at me. Lecti wanted to try to help me but I told her to charge herself up for Thunder. A few Hyper Beam too near later, Lecti then unleash Thunder on the Gyarados. Of course, it is a very weak version of Thunder since Lecti is not high enough level to learn Thunder but with the charging, Lecti can pull off a decent mimic of the move.
The Gyarados was well cook. I took a few sample of it before it faint and then took a few more sample when it did faint. I then chip off a bit of the Mega Stone on the Gyarados. Using normal Pokeball, it took me 6 before I caught it. Seems like he still have some fight left in him and we also have some fight left in us. We quickly found Ditto and gave chase when he try to run away but we caught up to him quickly. I think he saw our battle with Gyarados since we did not even need to fight him before he surrender to us. Lecti and I did not let him do so of course, at least after a few Thunder Shock before I caught him.
Flashback End
Now, I'm along with Dito which is what I decided to call Ditto and Lecti are traveling on foot to Celadon City where we will sell the Gyarados at the black market there as I put out a feeler for a auction in a month or so. Which is why we are walking there on foot since we want to minimizes the chance that someone will rob us.
We run in the morning towards the city while Lecti do so under weight since me and Dito are unable to keep up with her normally. Dito run using his normal form. After 2 hours of running, Lecti will learn to use her moves while Dito learn to hold his transformation longer and more realistic. At around dusk, we hunt Pokemon for food enough for dinner, tomorrow's breakfast and lunch and set up camp. Occasionally, we fight against the Zubat swarm and other Pokemon we run across.
My collection of Pokemon DNA sample are accumulating and a few flora sample just be be safe so that I have food when I clone the Pokemon in another world if the food is not compatible with Pokemon as food. An cloning is viable in Pokemon verse from the creation of Mewtwo with Mewtwo being Mewtwo due to the genetic splicing performed but not anything wrong with the cloning. Whenever, I saw a fruit tree I remember I am suppose to do something but I can't remember about it.
We arrive at Celadon City after 1 month and upon reaching the underground market, I hid my face let wait for the people to arrive. Normally, I would be afraid of the teams trying to steal the Gyarados from me but the fact that I am willing to sell it and I put up a bit for it change the rules. Since they don't want other team to team up to fight their team if they steal it, they refrain from doing so. It won't protect me once I'm out of the city but it will give me some protection at least.
Once the organizer check the Gyarados and enter my Pokemon as the finale of the auction, I sit in the back stage and look out in the seats and I saw various team around - Team Rocket, Magma, Aqua, etc. Which makes me feels better as I am wearing my mask without which would cause Team Aqua and Magma to know that I'm here to hunt me down here.
"Ladies and Gentlemen! For the grand finale, we are selling the prize of the centuryyyyy... Gyarados! Now, you may ask yourself what special about this Gyarados. Well, feast your eyes upon this beauty."
With that cue I release the Gyarados out in the stage. Furious whisper broke out in the seats.
"This Gyarados measure at 10 meters and 15 centimeter, a large size for a Gyarados. And whats more, the crystal on its head is a Mega Stone! This mean that this Gyarados is a naturally found Mega Gyarados. Starting bid at 5 billions Pokedollarsssss."
With that started, furious biding started.
"I see 5 billion, 6 billion, 10 billion... Is that a 15 billion I'm hearing... 15 billion, calling once, calling twice... 20 billion, any higher bid... calling once, twice sold to Team Rocket."
With that I return Gyarados to my Pokeball before heading up to meet up with the Team Rocket representative. I collected my 20 billion Pokedollar from them and exchange it with the Gyarados before leaving and giving 10 percent to the auction house without saying a word. I then inspect and collect the equipment that I bought through the auction house in my warehouse disguise as a Pokemon teleporting the items and pay them 3 billion Pokedollars.
Before I was about to leave, the owner of the auction house invite me to the auction again. "Thank you for the business. I hope you come again if you wanted to sell or buy anything else."
With a nod, I headed out and walk into an alley before opening up a portal and porting to an alley the opposite side of the city. I check into a cheap motel and went to sleep. Once I woke up, I release Dito and Eevee out before taking them to a small park to eat the high class food that my warehouse generated. I then sell the rest of the Pokefood to the Poke Mart. I also bought as much potion, super potion, antidote, repel etc. as I could before storing the majority inside my warehouse.
I then went to the Game Corner in the city and essentially "bought" the Pokemon Porygon and Dratini from them. The reason that I did not buy Pokemon from the black market since some of those Pokemon are treated badly before being sold but in the legal Game Corner the Pokemon there are treated at least correctly since the police will check on the Pokemon condition. Though, I did bought a Happiny egg since there is no chance anyone could have mistreated it but it would take an unknown amount of time for it to hatch.
In my motel room, I look the door and pull the curtain together before opening my portal to warehouse where I can introduce my Pokemon to each other and to show Dito and the others to my secret. I then place the Happiny egg in the warehouse and set up a camera and recording device before closing the door and found that I am able to do so. So Pokemon eggs are not considered 'alive' enough I guess and waited 10 minutes before opening up another portal and upon checking the camera, I found that no time have pass by.
This little glitch would allow me to create Pokemon in another world! Which I think if Jumpy would not mind since the act of releasing Pokemon in another world would be television worthy or at least interesting enough. I then call the auction house owner and in a pre-program voice clip ask him to buy as much Pokemon eggs of different species, evolutionary stones, TMs, Pokemon DNA, general, medicine and held items as possible for me and that I would collect them in a few months. He agreed.
I release all of them and name Dratini "Nite" and Porygon "Pory" and they greeted each other before they listen to my tale. After the greet and meet, we eat together for the first time before I return them back into the Pokeball then doing the hated thing - inventory. In my warehouse I have the robots arrange the shelf to on side and the item to another side before neatly arranging the items and writing down what there is.
Inventory: A industry grade freezer fill with Pokemon DNA and flora DNA, at least 1000 consumable items of all kinds, Machine able to create Pokeballs, TM/HMs, Evolution-inducing held items, (Medicines (potion, full heal etc.), Evolutionary Stones (slow and difficult to create), 1 Incubator, 1 Healing Station, Cloning Tanks (illegal), blueprints and instruction manuals.
When I flip through the manuals before I read that to make medicine I need berries before I remember that I did not store any. I was panicking before remembering that like potions, berries are easy to buy and when one is planted if it is carefully taken care of will produce more berries. That took care of my problem before I starting contemplate about the legendaries, I know some of them can have multiple such as Mew and the Bird trio. But the "god" Pokemon don't have multiple of them and I don't really want to attract their attention.
My current fighting and taking DNA effort and the black market should get me all the Pokemon DNA minus the 'god' Pokemons. With everything finished, I headed for bed since the next few days will involve a lot of flying. I actually wanted to get a Bagon into my team but I decided to get other Pokemon into my team. I decided for a Mew and a Latias to be in my team which help by my knowledge of the Pokemon universe or else like the average civilian I would not even think that they exist.
The knowledge actually gave me a way to start. I wanted to find a Mew egg or a Latias egg but a adult Mew or Latias would be better. I look up for sighting for these two and chase them in Hoenn and Kanto for around for 2 or so weeks before I gave up for now since capturing them would not be as easy as I thought it would be with my knowledge. Though I think that both Mew and Latias knows about me chasing after them since I found pranks targeting me. I even left out some food for them to eat, though I did not know if they ate it or other wild Pokemon ate it. Though other Pokemon eating it is difficult if they are not Psychic since I can sense Pokemon through it. The Zubat swarm continue to harass me though with my new Pokemon it is good training. With the last month left, I took a portal back to a spot near Pewter City since my portal ability can take me anywhere I have been before.
Once there, I begin their training. In the 1 month searching period, I gave them small exercise for them to do because I wanted my team to develop their bond and teamwork more before beginning their real training by having them fight wild Pokemon holding back. They develop nicely because in the beginning, they hit each other with their attacks while they battle wild Pokemon but now they at least can coordinate now to attack together. Their teamwork is not perfect but at least it is not the mess that we have in the beginning. This reminds me of the funny incident where I first realize that training Pokemon would not be as easy as it seems in the game.
Flashback
We were following a tips about a camper seeing Mew on the lake nearby. When we was walking there, Lecti, Dito, Nite and Pory was out of their Pokeballs and then the detestable Zubat swarm attack us. Naturally, the four of them started attacking back wthout my orders since even I could not give 4 orders at once (yet) but this also cause their attack to hit each other. Lecti's Thunder Shock hit the Zubats and cause a chain reaction that caught even more of them in it. But Dito have already transform into one of the Zubats. Dito's Transform is now better than before due to my training with it. He can now transform not so accurately for a longer time or transform accurately for a very short amount of time. It seems that the more accurate the transformation, the more energy it takes and the lesser amount of time that he can hold it. This cause Lecti's Thunder Shock to hit Dito too.
Dito in revenge use Supersonic on Lecti but Lecti's speed allow her to dodge around causing Dito to attack Nite and Pory accidentally. One attack hit another and another attack hit another before it became an all out battle between them. The Zubats are also caught in the friendly fire and beaten quickly but by the time all of them are defeated, not one of my Pokemon care about them. They were too busy fighting each other. Now, Dito Transform into Lecti and the fight is getting more and more serious as they are shooting attack everywhere. I then kinetically push them down stopping them from fighting any more.
I spent the next 3 hours berating them about their behavior thanks to my telepathy which allow me to do this without stopping for a break. The next day, I set up a harsh training course for them until they drop dead exhausted onto the ground.
Flashback End
After that incident, I started training them in teamwork with the sword of damocles hanging on their head if they started arguing again. We search far and wide but no luck anywhere but as I have said, I got the feeling that Mew and Latias knew that I was hunting them. Anyway, after we took a portal to near Pewter City and set up camp in a remote area. I then gave each of them a different training plan.
For Lecti, in the morning she is suppose to do a sprint circuit wearing weight at full speed to train her speed and her endurance before training her electricity ability in the afternoon to be able to produce huge amount of it in a short amount of time, the amount she can hold at one time and her ability to absorb electricity which I gotten an expensive battery to hold her charge and to release it back to her for her training. I did not neglect her physical training since I do not want her to become a one trick pony.
I did teach her and the others more moves by using TMs and HMs such as Toxic, Sunny Day and Rain Dance and that I wanted for them to learn more moves via tutoring but I decided not to since they already have to many moves at the moment to perfect. I also found out that the tutoring the Pokemon allows them to learn moves that they can normally get by breeding.
For Dito, he also did the morning exercise by raising his stats in his base form as it translate to higher stats when he Transform. For example, if his base speed is 10 and he Transform into Lecti, his speed will increase to about 100. But if he even increase his base speed to 15, his Lecti Transformation will net him a 150 speed. Although the increase is not that huge but the point stands. His afternoon is spent on perfecting his Transform under a variety of condition - ability to hold the Transformation, amount of accuracy, ability to do a previous Transformation, the condition the Transform target need to be in for him to Transform etc.
For Nite, I had her exercise her speed mostly for now since as a Dratini her speed is her best stats and when she evolve, her strength will be easier to train then but I did try to raise her strength. As I already have a electric type Pokemon, I train Nite to use her fire type attack better by making it hotter, longer and more concentrated.
For Pory, I immediately evolve him using an Up-Grade into Porygon 2 and again using the Dubious Disc evolve him into Porygon-Z. This is due to the fact that Porygon are Virtual Pokemon, thus, best at computer related skill and not battle. So, her amount of morning exercises is minimal compare to the others as he spend his time on my computer and the internet instead. Most of the his skill training is on status effect moves and with Solar Beam and Sunny Day as the main focus for his attack move.
Lecti is the highest level of all my Pokemon at level 54. The rest are around level upper 20 to mid 30. With all of them sufficiently train and with my self appointed deadline coming up, I once again head towards Pewter City after packing up my camp to battle Brock once again.
A/N: This Jump Chain world plus a few other will be short story since I do not know how to write a story for them. Feedback is recommended while Flamers can go screw yourself.
