Rescue Bots in the world of Pokémon
Here's another chapter of my Rescue bots/Pokémon story.
mewmaster89: Thank you, thank you very much.
pokemonsora01: I've had plenty of practice in writing stories. Also, I finally decided that Heatwave and Anora should have a father/daughter relationship with each other because I think it suits the two better. Besides, I'm thinking of hooking Heatwave up with another OC, a femme Autobot, I'm going to be creating in the near future. So expect that as you keep reading the story, also no need to be sorry.

Chapter 9: Gaining new friends Part 1
A few days had gone by for the Burns family as Kade, Graham and Dani began to develop a better partnership with their Bots. Well...two out of three of them were having a better partnership. It always seemed like Heatwave and Kade were constantly butting heads with each other, but it was probably something that will keep happening in their partnership. Usually, Anora and Cody would be in the command center looking out for trouble, but today has been pretty quiet for everyone so far. The Burns family members were all at home in the firehouse doing their own thing, except for Anora who was outside with Mimi. Anora was brushing Mimi's fur with a soft brush that she had bought at the pet store a few days ago. It was a beautiful day with the sun shining brightly within the clear sky as the two friends decided to get a bit of fresh air together.
"Does that feel good, Mimi?" asked Anora.
Mimi let out a happy yip as the soft bristles of the brush ran through her fur. Anora chuckled as a soft smile spread out on her face before she continued with her brushing. As Anora brushed Mimi's fur, she began to notice her friend's ears twitching every few minutes. Anora rolled her eyes, while a smile of amusement appeared on her face before she felt the familiar weight of a certain Pokémon jump onto her shoulders.
"Treecko, Treecko!" cried the little gecko Pokémon happily.
"You do know that trick is getting old, don't you?" questioned Anora playfully as she turned to look at the Pokémon on her shoulders.
Treecko looked at Anora in surprise for a moment before it pouted. It jumped to the ground and sat down, while crossing its arms over its chest. Anora chuckled at the sight before she went back to brushing Mimi's fur.
"It's been a few days since I last saw you, Treecko." Anora said as she paused in her brushing to talk with the gecko Pokémon. "I hope you and Rotom aren't causing Doc Greene and Frankie any trouble."
Treecko's eyes widened slightly at what Anora had said before looking at her, while scratching the back of its head with a nervous smile upon its face. Anora noticed the nervous smile before she let out a sigh. Anora tucked the brush into her left overall pocket before she and Mimi turned their full attention onto the gecko Pokémon.
"Okay, what have you and your friend done now?" questioned Anora.
A large anime sweat drop appeared on the side of Treecko's head as it poked its fingers together, while muttering something in its language. Mimi's eyes widened before she began to yip at Treecko in a scolding manner, while the gecko Pokémon cringed at what the angry fox Pokémon had said to it. Anora stared at Mimi with a confused expression upon her face for she didn't understand what Treecko had just said.
"Whoa, Mimi, calm down," said Anora as she placed a hand on Mimi's back. "What did Treecko just say?"
"Treecko said that he and his friend kind of caused a bit of a scene at Doc's lab," spoke a voice from behind the trio.
Anora, Mimi and Treecko looked up to see Boulder standing in front of them. Treecko let out a yelp of surprise at seeing Boulder moving around on his own before it quickly jumped to its feet, and hid behind Anora. Anora turned her gaze on Treecko as the little gecko Pokémon peeked out from behind her, and she couldn't help but giggle.
"It's alright, Treecko," said Anora as she tried to gently coax the Pokémon out of hiding. "Boulder won't hurt you."
Treecko looked up at Anora with an unsure look on its face before it spoke in a small voice. Anora could only guess that it was asking her if she really meant it and she nodded her head at it. She then looked up at Boulder with a raised eyebrow when he told her what Treecko had said to her and Mimi. Anora had found out a few days ago that the Autobots were able to understand the language of Pokémon. This was proven when Mimi was talking with Blades and the Helicopter-Bot had wind up laughing out of the blue. Anora questioned what was so funny, and she was surprised when Blades answered by telling her that Mimi had told him a funny story about what had happened back in Anora's old hometown.
Blades explained to her that Mimi had told him the story of how they (Anora and Mimi) had played a prank on one of the kids in her hometown after he had hurt one of their Pokémon friends. Blades laughed when he reached the part where they had the boy fall into a puddle of mud, which they had made with a few of their water Pokémon friends. Not to mention covering him in downy feathers from bird Pokémon who had empty nests filled with them. Luckily they hadn't been caught, and the boy winded up being covered in mud and feathers for weeks. Those were some good times for Anora and Mimi.
Anora turned her attention on the Treecko again, now knowing the Pokémon's gender: "Alright now Treecko. What kind of a scene did you and Rotom caused at Doc Greene's lab this time?"
Treecko hesitated for a moment before he began to explain what had happened at the lab. While he did that, the rest of the Rescue Bots and Cody had come outside to check on Anora and Mimi. Cody quickly noticed Treecko, along with Heatwave as the Fire-bot frowned down at the little gecko Pokémon.
"Well, well, if it isn't sticky fingers himself." Heatwave muttered as the Fire-Bot crossed his arms over his chest.
Treecko flinched when he saw Heatwave before giving the Fire-bot a nervous wave. Blades looked down at the little gecko Pokémon curiously before asking Anora his question.
"What kind of Pokémon is that?"
"This little guy is a Treecko," answered Anora as she turned her attention on Blades. "He's a gecko grass type Pokémon that has tiny spikes on his hands and feet to let him climb around on vertical surfaces."
"So he doesn't have any sticky slime on him or anything?" asked Blades in a hopeful voice.
Treecko answered Blades question by shaking its head rapidly while crying out 'no' in its Pokémon language. Blades let out a sigh of relief before Heatwave stepped forward to talk with Treecko.
"So, what did you mean by you and your friend accidently messing up Doc Greene's lab?" questioned the Fire-Bot.
Anora's eyes widened before looking down at Treecko with a questioning frown on her face.
"Treecko...what did you and Rotom do?" asked Anora in a scolding voice.
Treecko glanced up at Anora as a large anime sweat drop appeared on the back of his head. The gecko Pokémon then started to chatter madly, while waving his arms about to show how flustered he was.
"Whoa, slow down little guy," said Boulder as he held up his servos in a calm down gesture. "You're not making any sense."
Treecko stopped before taking in a deep breath and started talking in a calmer voice, while slowly moving his hands around to get his point across. After Treecko finished, he looked down at the ground in shame before Chase was the first one to speak.
"Breaking and entering, destruction of property, and recklessly causing mischief to annoy Doc Greene?" questioned Chase as he listed off what Treecko and Rotom had done. "If those are not crimes then I will make sure they will be."
"Treecko, Tree," said the gecko Pokémon with in shame.
"Don't say 'sorry' to us," scolded Heatwave with a glare as he pointed a finger at Treecko. "Doc Greene is the one who you and your so called friend should be apologizing to."
Treecko let out a groan of agreement as it slumped down in sadness. Anora looked up at the Autobots along with Cody as the two children held confused and concerned expressions upon their faces.
Anora was the first to ask: "What did Treecko say?"
"Apparently Treecko and his friend, Rotom, were once again bothering Doc Greene and Francine by breaking into the lab again," answered Chase. "Like usual, the two were causing mischief and wrecking the place just to have a little, as they would call it, fun."
"Unfortunately their 'fun' caused a lot of damage to the lab's equipment," continued Heatwave as he glared down at Treecko.
"What was the damage?" asked Cody with a concern look on his face.
"Oh nothing much," answered Blades with a wave of his servo casually. "Just causing an explosion in the lab by accidently knocking over some of the chemicals that Doc hadn't finished experimenting with."
Anora looked down at Treecko with a disappointed look on her face: "Is that true Treecko?"
Treecko nodded his head 'yes' with an ashamed expression on his face. Suddenly, Charlie and the older Burns siblings walked out of the firehouse as they came up to the group. Charlie held a serious expression upon his face as he walked towards Anora, Cody and the Rescue Bots. Anora stood up with Mimi jumping onto her left shoulder in the process.
"What's wrong, Dad?" asked Cody when he saw the serious look on his father's face.
"I just got a call from Doc Greene," answered Charlie as he stopped to place his hands on his waist. "We're needed at the lab."
Heatwave and his team members transformed into their alt-modes before the Burns family climbed into them. Anora was about to follow when she noticed Treecko not moving as the gecko continued to look sadly down at the ground. Anora and Mimi glanced at one another as they shared a small smile between each other. Treecko continued to look down at the ground before his eyes widened in surprise when Anora picked him up and held him in her arms. Treecko looked up at Anora as the young teen stared down at him with a sad smile on her face.
"You should probably come along with us to say you're sorry to Doc Greene," said Anora.
Treecko muttered an agreement as he hung limp within Anora's arms, while he let the young teen carry him over to where Chase was. Anora got into the back seat and buckled herself in, while placing Treecko and Mimi on her lap. It took about an hour to get up to Doc Greene's lab, and what they saw had everyone staring up in astonishment. The windows on the top level of the lab were shattered, and there was black ash all around the edges. Everyone quickly got out of the Rescue Bots and headed towards the front door of the lab. Charlie was the first one to the door as he quickly knocked on it. It didn't take long for Doc Greene to open the door and let Anora and the Burns family inside the lab.
"I'm glad you're here Chief," said Doc Greene with a relieved look on his face.
"What happened here Doc?" questioned Charlie as he and his family followed Doc Greene upstairs to his lab.
"Well, it seems that those two little Pokémon scamps had gone too far in their fun and games within my lab this time." Doc Greene answered in an exasperated voice. "They were fooling around with some sensitive equipment, and thus caused a chaotic mess in here when they knocked over a collection of chemicals that I was experimenting on."
Doc Greene opened the door to the lab and what everyone saw caused them to gasp. The room within the lab was covered in black ash, and the equipment within the lab laid broken on shelves and floor. Along with a few broken beakers and test-tubs.
"Whoa," said Kade when he saw the mess. "Looks like you're going to need a house keeper to clean this place up."
"Was anyone hurt when this happened?" asked Charlie in concern.
"Fortunately, no," answered Doc Greene with a smile before it turned into a frown. "Though I am concerned about the two Pokémon that keep coming into my lab. I fear that they might cause more trouble here if they continue their shenanigans."
"Um...Doc Greene," spoke Anora as she stepped forward with Treecko held in her arms, while Mimi sat on her left shoulder. "If you're wondering about one of the two Pokémon. Well...Treecko here wanted to come by and apologize to you, right Treecko?"
Treecko nodded his head sadly as he hung limply within her arms. Doc Greene was surprised to see Treecko in Anora's arms before he crossed his arms over his chest, and glared at the gecko Pokémon.
"You and Rotom are in a whole mess of trouble, little gecko," said Doc Greene in a scolding voice.
Treecko muttered in agreement as he hung his head in shame. Doc Greene let out a sigh before he turned his gaze on Anora with a raised eyebrow.
"Have you seen the other trouble maker of the duo that wrecked my lab?" he asked.
"No," answered Anora with a shake of her head. "Treecko is the only Pokémon that ever visits me and Mimi once in a while. I haven't seen Rotom for the last few days."
Doc Greene then turned to look at Treecko with a questioning look. The gecko Pokémon shrugged his shoulders to show that he didn't know where Rotom was either. A worried expression came over Doc Greene's face before he started looking around the lab.
"Oh dear," voice Doc Greene as he turned to look back at the Burns family. "I hope that little scamp is not hiding in the lab somewhere."
"If it is, well help you look for it," said Charlie.
As soon as he said those words, everyone heard a crash on the bottom level of the lab. Everyone quickly glanced at each other before they hurried downstairs to see what the commotion was. When they all came down the stairs they saw Frankie chasing Rotom around with a broom, while the little electric/ghost Pokémon cackled at her attempts to smack it.
"Shoo! Go! Get out of here!" shouted Frankie in frustration as the little Pokémon zipped around her.
The group watched this scene as the electric/ghost Pokémon cackled in hysterical laughter, which was contagious to both Treecko and Mimi as the two Pokémon quietly giggled to themselves. Anora glanced at the two Pokémon and rolled her eyes in amusement before turning her attention back on Frankie and Rotom. Frankie let out a frustrating grunt as she swung the broom that she was holding in her hands, but winded up putting a little too much force into her swing. Frankie suddenly found herself losing her balance and falling to the ground with a thud. Rotom let out another cackle before it zipped through the room again at lightning speed.
"As I feared," groaned Doc Greene in exasperation. "That little scamp is harder to get rid of than the common cold."
"Not to mention more annoying than a mosquito," muttered Kade with a frown.
He then let out a yelp of surprise when Rotom suddenly appeared in front of him, and what happened next was something everyone was not expecting. Rotom sparked for a few moments before it used Electric Shock on Kade, who screamed out in surprise and pain. Everyone watched in shock and fear before Rotom stopped its attacked. The group was quiet as they all stared at Kade. Kade's hair was now puffed up almost like a puffball with a few strings of electricity zapping through it. Anora, Cody, Dani and Graham couldn't help themselves as they all burst out laughing at what they saw.
"What, what's so funny?" questioned Kade with an annoyed look on his face.
"Oh, Kade!" exclaimed Dani as she pointed a finger at her older brother. "That's definitely a good look for you!"
Before Kade could ask what his sister was talking about, Rotom started to fly around like crazy again before it flew out through an open window. Treecko quickly leapt out of Anora's arms and ran towards the front door of the lab. Anora quickly chasing after him to make sure that he didn't get into any more trouble.
Outside the Lab
The Rescue-Bots, who were still in their alt-modes, were all outside waiting for their human partners to come back out from the lab.
"What do you think is going on in there?" asked Boulder curiously to his teammates.
"Who knows," answered Heatwave with a grumble. "But whatever is going on in there it can't be anything good."
Suddenly, they all heard a scream coming out of the lab and that caused Blades to tense up in fear.
"What was that?!" cried Blades in a worry voice.
Before any of his teammates could answer, a white streak suddenly zipped out through the open window and headed towards the helicopter-bot. Blades let out a scream before the white streak collided with his glass canopy. A loud pinning sound rung throughout the air, and the white streak changed into a small orange creature that dropped to the ground. The little creature's eyes swirled as it lay on the ground unmoving, while groaning out in pain.
"What in the AllSpark is that?" questioned Heatwave.
"Apparently a Pokémon that can use electricity," stated Chase bluntly when he answered Heatwave's question.
The Rescue Bots heard the front door of the lab open as Treecko ran out of the lab with Anora following right behind him. Anora stopped in her tracks when she saw Rotom lying on the ground unconscious.
"What happened?" asked Anora as she ran down the steps towards the unconscious Pokémon with Treecko.
"That thing just flew out of the window and crashed right into me," explained Blades as he let out a painful groan.
Treecko was the first one to Rotom as he chittered in his language to asked his friend if he was okay. The only response Treecko got from his friend was Rotom groaning in pain. Anora soon came over and quickly knelt down as she gently picked the electric/ghost Pokémon up from the ground, while cradling it in her hands.
"I guess Rotom got a little over excited in its game of 'Annoy Frankie'," said Anora with a raised eyebrow.
Mimi nodded her head in agreement along with Treecko as the gecko Pokémon let out an exasperated sigh at his friend's antics. They then heard the sound of feet running towards them as Anora's relatives, Doc Greene and Frankie exited out of the lab. Charlie was the first one to Anora and noticed her holding the unconscious Rotom in her hands.
"What happened?" asked Charlie with a raised eyebrow.
Anora opened her mouth to tell her uncle that Rotom had accidently crashed into Blades. But quickly stopped herself when she realized that Doc Greene, and his daughter were present so she came up with a white lie.
"I don't really know," answered Anora in a worried voice. "When Treecko, Mimi and I ran outside, we saw Rotom lying on the ground unconscious."
Doc Greene quickly walked up to Anora to take a look at Rotom, and saw a small bump forming on the little Pokémon's head.
"It must have accidently collided with another Pokémon or crashed head first into the ground," guessed Doc Greene with a light frown on his face. "Let's take this little fella back into the lab so that I can fix it up."
Anora nodded before she, Mimi, Treecko and her relatives followed Frankie and Doc Greene back into the lab. Doc Greene led the group to another part of the lab, where they came to a room with a medical table standing in the middle of the room. Standing next to the table was a control panel with a large screen. Anora looked around the room in amazement before quickly getting her act together when Doc Greene began to speak to her.
"Anora, please place Rotom on the medical table," instructed Doc Greene as he walked over to the control panel.
Anora nodded her head before walking over to the medical table and placed Rotom on top of it. Once she stepped away from the table, two arches of glass sild over Rotom's unconscious body and formed a canopy. Once that was done, Doc Greene began to press a few buttons on the control panel before it began to hum to life. Anora and her relatives watched in fascination when two long cords descended from the ceiling before hovering over the glass chamber. They watched as beams of light began to shine from the ends of the cords and onto the injured Rotom.
"Uh...what exactly is that thing doing, Doc?" questioned Kade with a confused look on his face.
Anora carefully examined the machine for a moment before realization came over her face as she turned to look at Doc Greene.
"Doc Greene, is this machine one of the healing chambers that I've heard about from the Pokémon Center?" She asked.
"That is correct Anora," answered Doc Greene with a smile. "In fact, this healing chamber was one of the first inventions that I helped make for the Pokémon Centers."
"That's amazing!" exclaimed Anora with a smile. "I'm glad that scientists and technicians are able to make something that can help heal Pokémon."
Unknown to Anora, Frankie, who was standing beside Cody, rolled her eyes in exasperation at the young teen's constant talk of Pokémon. She just didn't understand what was so great about Pokémon? All they seemed to do is cause trouble for her and her dad whenever they try to finish experiments together. Anora walked up to the healing chamber as she stared down at Rotom with a soft smile on her face. Cody walked up to stand beside her with a thoughtful look on his face.
"I wonder why Rotom and Treecko always come to your Lab to bother you Doc Greene," said Cody as he turned to look at the scientist.
"That's one mystery that I'm trying to solve myself, Cody," answered Doc Greene as he turned to look at him with a confused expression upon his face. "Those two have started coming to the lab a few weeks ago before Anora came to the island."
"There must be a reason for Rotom and Treecko to keep coming to you home, Doc Greene," said Anora with a thoughtful look on her face.
"Well, if there is then I'm sure it must be a pretty good reason," said Cody with an encouraging smile.
Anora felt a touch on her leg. She looked down to see Treecko gazing up at her with a worried expression on his face. Anora smiled down at the gecko Pokémon before she gathered Treecko up into her arms. The young teen held the gecko Pokémon up so that he could have a better view of his friend.
"Don't worry, Treecko," said Anora with a gentle smile. "I'm sure Rotom will be okay."
Treecko looked up at Anora as he gave her an unsure smile before looking back at Rotom with a troubled expression upon his face. Anora sadly gazed down at Treecko for a moment before looking up at Doc Greene again.
"How long do you think it will take for Rotom to recover, Doc Greene?"
"Hard to say," answered Doc Greene as he turned to look at the screen of the control panel. "Rotom had knocked itself out pretty hard, and it seems to be experiencing symptoms of exhaustion."
"Exhaustion?" echoed Anora.
"Yes," said Doc Greene with a raised eyebrow. "Which is quiet strange."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa," said Kade as he shook his hands in front of him. "What do you mean its exhausted? That...Rotum...or whatever you call it was bouncing off the walls just a minute ago."
"Whatever the case, Rotom needs rest," said Doc Greene as he turned to look at Anora and the Burns family. "I'll keep monitoring Rotom's condition to see what I can figure out."
"While you do that, we'll take care of the mess in the lab," said Charlie.
With that everyone, not including Doc Greene, walked out of the room, and headed towards the lab to clean up the mess. Anora fell back behind her relatives as her face held an out of focus look as she began to ponder over what Doc Greene had just told them.
It took a few hours for Anora and her relatives to clean up the lab before they all headed back to the firehouse with Treecko coming along with them. Kade grumble in displeasure at the idea of having another Pokémon staying under their roof. He then went into 'crisis mode' when Heatwave asked, with a smirk, about what had happened to his hair, which caused everyone to laugh at his predicament. Anora was now in the bunker with Cody and the Bots as they all watched Treecko and Mimi playing together as the two Pokémon chased each other around the bunker. Anora and Cody were sitting on two small crates, while Heatwave and his team members stood around the two young humans. Anora watched the two Pokémon with a small smile on her face. But her smile slowly changed into a frown as she went into thought about what Doc Greene had said about Rotom's condition. Cody noticed this as he turned to look at his cousin in concern.
"Are you okay, Anora?" asked Cody gently.
Anora blinked as she came out of her thoughts before looking at Cody and gave him a reassuring smile.
"I'm alright Cody," answered Anora gently. "I was just thinking about what had happened back at Doc Greene's lab."
"You mean about Rotom being exhausted, right?" guessed Cody.
Anora lightly frowned as she turned her eyes down towards the ground and slowly nodded her head. Heatwave became interested in the conversation as he knelt down to be at the two children's height.
"What do you mean by Rotom being exhausted?" asked Heatwave.
Anora looked up at Heatwave before answering: "Doc Greene said that Rotom had shown signs of exhaustion when he started examining its health levels."
"I don't get it," said Blades as a confused look came over his face. "How can a Pokémon like Rotom get exhausted when it was practically bouncing off the walls inside Doc Greene's lab? Not to mention crashing into my window, which did I forgot to tell you really hurt!"
"I think you mentioned it a couple of times," said Anora with a smile before she got serious again. "And also, I might have an idea on why Rotom might be experiencing exhaustion."
"Can you tell us?" asked Boulder, who was curious to know about what was wrong with Rotom.
"Well," started Anora as she stood up and began to slowly pace with a thoughtful expression upon her face. "Rotom is both an electric type and ghost type Pokémon. So it's hard to know what kind of symptoms Rotom might be having. But I'm guessing that it might be experiencing an overcharge of electricity, or it could have been hit by another Pokémon's attack to cause it to go wild."
Treecko quickly stopped in his tracks when he heard what Anora was saying to the Bots. Mimi stopped to stand beside the gecko Pokémon as she too listen in on the conversation as well. Cody lightly frowned as he thought about Anora's theories before looking at his cousin with a serious expression upon his face.
"Maybe it's both," suggested Cody.
Anora stopped in her tracks as she turned to look at Cody: "That might be possible, but we don't really know what caused Rotom to go wild in Doc Greene's lab."
Anora felt a tap on her right leg and looked down to see Treecko looking up at her with an uneasy expression on his face. Anora knelt down to be at eye level with Treecko.
"What is it, Treecko?" asked Anora.
Treecko began to talk while moving his arms around as he tried to tell Anora his story of what happened to Rotom. Anora stared intently at Treecko as she tried to understand what he was trying to tell her before the gecko Pokémon came to the end of his story.
"Are you trying to tell me that Rotom had an encounter with a Pokémon that left it in the stated that it was in today?" asked Anora gently.
Treecko nodded his head at Anora's question before Boulder stepped in to translate what Treecko had just said.
"Treecko said that Rotom had winded up battling against a Pokémon that it was weakest against," said Boulder as he retold the story to Cody and Anora. "He said that it was a Pokémon that was both a ground type and dark type."
"I wouldn't be surprised," said Anora with a light frown. "Dirt and earth don't really conduct electricity, so electric type Pokémon are weak against ground type Pokémon. While ghost type Pokémon are weak against dark type Pokémon. So I get the feeling that Rotom must have gotten into a battle with a Pokémon that's both of those types."
"What Pokémon do you think it could be, Anora?" asked Cody curiously.
"Probably a Sandile," answered Anora as she glanced towards her cousin.
She then turned when she saw that Blades and the other Rescue-Bots held a confused expressions when hearing the name of the new Pokémon.
"What's a...Sandile?" asked Blades nervously. "And what exactly does it look like?"
"Hang on," said Anora as she dug into the back pocket of her overall pants before pulling out her Pokédex and turning it on.
She typed in the name of the Pokémon that she was looking for before turning the Pokédex around to show the image of the Pokémon to the Autobots. Heatwave and his team members leaned forward to see the image.
The image showed the Bots what a Sandile looked like. It was a small four legged crocodile like Pokémon with a long snout and tail. The Pokémon's skin color was light brown with black stripes crossing over and under its legs, while the belly of the Pokémon was pink. There was a black stripe on top of the Pokémon's snout and another black strip on the tip of its tail. The eyes were small and slightly hard to see against a large black patch that resembled goggles.
"This is a Sandile," explained Anora to the four Rescue Bots. "They're known to live in deserts and are both a dark and ground type Pokémon. They can be mischievous and troublesome little Pokémon that like to play tricks on humans. The black marking around the Sandile's eyes is actually a membrane that helps protect its eyes from sandstorms, and helps it to see against the glare of the harsh sun."
"Aww...it's so cute," cooed Blades when he saw the image.
Anora chuckled before she spoke again: "Sandile is the pre-evolved form of its finally evolution so I guess you could say that it is at the child stage of life."
"What do you mean by pre-evolved?" asked Boulder curiously.
"Well, unlike the regular animals that you would see, Pokémon have the ability to evolve into different species," Anora answered as she looked up at the Bulldozer-bot. "I guess you could say that it's a Pokémon's way of 'growing-up' in life."
"Evolve?" echoed Blades as he scratched the top of his helm. "You've lost me."
"Sorry," said Anora with a blush of embarrassment. "Here, this might help. You see when Sandile evolves, it will change from being a Sandile"-She switched the image of the Sandile to a different Pokémon that had the same colored skin and stripes as the first crocodile Pokémon, but is now standing on two legs-"To this Pokémon, Krokorok."
Blades cringed when he saw the next form that Sandile changes into: "Not so cute anymore."
"Yeah, sometimes the evolutions that some Pokémon will take on might be a bit scary," said Anora with a reassuring smile on her face as she turned off her Pokédex and placed it back into her pocket again. "But sometimes other evolutions can be beautiful and unexpected."
"So, what about Mimi?" asked Boulder as the little fox Pokémon sat near Anora's right foot. "Will she evolve too?"
"Yep," answered Anora as she picked Mimi up and held the little fox Pokémon in her arms. "But you could say that Mimi is a special kind of Pokémon that has a branch evolution."
"Branched evolution?" echoed Heatwave.
"Meaning, Mimi here can evolve into any form based on any Pokémon type," explained Anora.
Blades groaned out in pain as he placed his two servos on the sides of his helm: "I'm starting to get a headache from all of this evolution talk."
Anora wilted slightly at Blades' words before looking down at the ground sadly when she realized that she wasn't making any sense to the Bots. Heatwave gave Blades a hard look, which caused the helicopter-bot to flinch, before the Fire-Bot turned his attention back onto Anora. Heatwave could tell that Anora was only trying to help them understand Pokémon a little bit better. So when someone says something about Pokémon in a bad way or anything else. Anora would think people were not interested in hearing her talk about Pokémon, or will begin to think that she had done something wrong. Heatwave stretched his right servo out and gently placed it on top of Anora's shoulder, thus causing the young teen to look up at the Fire-bot.
"I think what Blades is trying to say is that learning about Pokémon and their evolutions is going to take some time." Heatwave said with a reassuring smile.
Anora gave Heatwave a small smile as she felt reassured by his words: "Then I guess we'll take Pokémon lessons one day at a time."
"That would be the best course of action," spoke Chase as he entered the conversation. "Learning about things on your planet, such as Pokémon, is going to take time and patience."
"Okay," said Anora with a light chuckle. "If you guys have any questions on what type of Pokémon you want to know about, then I'll tell you about them."
"Hey, Anora," spoke Cody from his spot on the crate. "Do you really think it was a Sandile that attacked Rotom?"
Anora turned to look at her cousin after Heatwave removed his servo from her shoulder.
"Could be," said Anora.
Treecko quickly spoke up as he shouted something in his language at Anora.
"Treecko said it was a Sandile that attacked his Rotom friend," translated Boulder when Cody and Anora turned to look up at him for answers.
"Which doesn't add up," said Anora with a light frown.
"What do you mean?" asked Cody as he got up from the crate and walked up to stand beside Anora.
"As I said before, Sandile are often found in deserts," answered Anora as she let Mimi climb up onto her shoulder. "Deserts are the natural habitat for ground type Pokémon and on Griffin Rock there are no deserts. The only sand that can be found on the island is at the beach, and pure ground type Pokémon would never go near the ocean since they're weak against water."
"Do you think it might be a stray Pokémon that could have somehow gotten onto the island?" asked Cody.
"It probably is," answered Anora with a determined look on her face. "After all, Uncle Charlie did say that wild Pokémon would sometimes sneak onto the ferry. So the Sandile might have done just that."
"If that's the case then where is that rapscallion now?" questioned Chase with a light frown on his face.
Suddenly the alarms within the firehouse began to blare before Charlie's voice spoke up from the intercom.
"Team, we've just got a call from the Mayor. He says that some kind of animal is wrecking his front lawn and backyard," said Charlie.
