This is a story about one of my OC submissions, it's also blended along with Chapter 2.


Juan's POV

Ah, Voyana City. I always loved the city, I used to live in one with my parents, until they- well. No point in dwelling on the past, I better go turn back again. Katie's lagging behind.

"Stop sightseeing so much, don't you want to check out the Pokémon Coordinator Challenge? We can't be late!"

"I'm coming! The city's so beautiful, I want to see everything. It's been so long since we last went to one."

"At this pace, I might as well find a taxi."

"Oh don't worry, we'll be on time."

"Then again why do I care, you're the one who wanted to go in the first place."

She lightly punched me in the arm, I say lightly because she's playing around, but it still hurts.

"You care because you're my big brother. And we always stick out for each other."

A yellow cab turned the corner and headed down their street.

"What luck! Hey, taxi!" I raised his hand and shook it like a maniac. The taxi pulled over and they climbed in.

"Where ya headed," said the taxi driver. His voice sounded gruff and unfriendly, but his blue eyes were as bright as storms.

Katie leaned forward, "The Pokémon Coordinator hall."

"Oh! You're going to watch the challenge, eh?"

"Yup! I'm planning to become one sometime in the future!"

"Good luck. I always wanted to go, but I can't take the day off since everybody is gonna want to watch it. Today is a day for cab drivers."

"Oh, but thanks for taking us there."

"No problem. You guys read the newspaper? Cause I have some in the back, there's an interesting headline for once."

I grabbed a newspaper and shifted my glasses as Katie shifted closer to me.

Gamma Team on the rise, Oak Agency's biggest nemesis coming back from under the law

"Five years ago, the Gamma team was shut down by the Oak Agency. At that time, it had been a small company known for enhancing and making Pokémon. It was buried under the law. But in the past few weeks, it seems like they have resurfaced. They're have been reports of illegal deals between evil teams like Team Rocket and Team Flare. However, Team Plasma operatives have been attacked many times, the only evidence being ice shards scatter all over their bases. Speculators think it has something to do with the legendary Pokémon Kyurem. But other people link it to the rise of the Gamma Team. Either way, the Oak Agency is working hard to bring them back down again. Many secret deals between teams have been busted with their operatives captured, atleast, the ones from the other evil teams. The Oak Agency has no clearance by law to investigate/arrest any Gamma Team members. The reason for this is because while they are dealing in a lot of gray areas, they have done anything explicitly illegal. Don't forget that many of their projects are secret and buried far from the law with their skilled lawyers. Unlike last time the Gamma Team existed they are very slippery. However, that isn't deterring the Oak Agency. Just four days ago, four Team Rocket members were arrested after a secret deal with the Gamma Team. Police suspect that the truck was disabled with an electric attack before being blown out with a Hyper Beam. From the look of the crash, it seems a brief scuffle happened before the members were arrested.

Juan raked his hair through his jet black hair and turned to face his sister.

"The Gamma team, that sounds worrying. But I have strong faith in the Oak Agency and their skills, I'm sure they can bring them to justice."

"You speak like those news reporters. Always using big words to describe small things."

"Defeating a crime organization is not a small thing. I wonder what their thing is, why are they enhancing Pokémon? Is it for their own desires, or do they want all Pokémon to be their own way. "

"I suggest you think about it later, cause we're here. Keep the newspaper by the way."

"Thank you, here's some extra money for your services."

As expected, the place was crowded. I grabbed Katie's hand to make sure we didn't get separated.

"I'm seventeen y'know. You don't have to hold my hand."

"I'm older than you so therefore you are my baby sister. Get used to it."

She rolled her eyes but smiled anyways. I laughed and let go of her hand. Together we pushed our way past the crowd.

Olivia's POV

And little did they know I was watching them. I put away my binoculars and giggled to myself. Two orphans just like me, oh how fun it would be to have to kidnap the female. We could share stories about how we became orphans. Of course, I would be sitting on a comfortable chair while she'd be tied to a wall.

Orphans, the word brought up memories from the past, were they bad? Yes, did they benefit in any way? Yes. Is it worth dwelling on, no. I had a kidnapping to organize.

I take out my phone and place a call

"Yes, this is Leonard?"

"It's Olivia Carwright, as your commanding officer I command you to gather a team to kidnap someone."

"Why do I have to do the grunt work?"

"Because you are a grunt and therefore are of little significance and have to do all the heavy lifting. It's how the Gamma Team pyramid is built, the grunts are at the body holding everything up."

"Thanks, you just reminded me why I want to quit."

"Go ahead, if you want to be hunted down to extinction."

"Y'know what, I'll get the team."

I hung up. Grunts have so little intelligence, now I just have to do some circuitry.

No one's POV

Juan and Katie had finally found a spot inside the packed theater. They both shared a huge bag of popcorn.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our yearly Pokémon Coordinating event!"

Everyone cheered and clapped at the statement, excited for the composition to begin.

"As some of you may know and others who don't, this challenge consists of four people, and seven events. First, you get to see all four Pokémon do their tricks, then you get to see a stylish battle between two people. Remember, the battle is not just based on damage, but on style. Finally we add the scores and have the two highest scoring contestants go head to head. The winner will be awarded a bonus ten points! Sounds simple? Well each contestant is on a minute and a half timer. So you have to be quick and stellar then let's begin! Starring our first contestant, Maya Ray and Bella, her Primarina!

Maya walked up to the stage with her Primarina scooting behind her and she bowed to the audience.

"Bella, Hyper Voice."

Bella sang to the crowd as her hair undid itself and a wave of water shot into the sky, bursting as it rained over the stage.

"Now, Misty Terrain."

Bella let out another song which shifted the world around them into a pink mist. Combined with the falling water made the stage look beautiful, but she wasn't done yet.

"Use Hyper Voice again then follow it with Light Screen."

Bella created a Reflect barrier. The way it was angled caused the stage light to reflect upwards, she then repeated the Hyper Voice causing the light to reflect off the droplets, creating a rainbow.

"Amazing, The Misty Terrain combined with the rainbow is so magnificent, I-I think I need a tissue. But the timer is almost up, will she continue this beautiful array, or will she mix in variety?"

The announcer's question was immediately answered as Bella used Swift. The golden stars caught the light and reflected it between the other starts. Creating a dazzling display.

"And times up! That was an amazing display of color, the pink, rainbow, the gold, superb! Let's see what our judges think."

The judges held up score cards that were up to ten.

"That was an almost perfect score, two tens and a nine is very impressive. The only way to beat Maya in the first round is by getting a perfect score. But let's give it up for our next contestant Drew and his Roserade Thora!"

The next few rounds were good, but not as stunning as Maya's. Drew got a 27, Alex and his Houndoom Reaper got a 25, while Brittany and her Kirlia Dancer got a 28.

"Hey Juan, what did you think about Kirlia? I really loved how it did that spin and then used Psybeam. Which one did you like? After Maya of course, her act was stunning, the announcer was literally tearing up."

"Honestly, I liked the Houndoom, I don't know why he got a 26 should have gotten a 28. The Fire Spin Dark Pulse chain was amazing."

"True, the black flames were a nice touch. But the Drew guy was pretty nice, the Magical Leaf funnel with the Solar Beam was absolutely divine."

"Now you're talking like the announcer, always using so many different adjectives when you can just say amazing eight times in a row."

Katie gave him a play punch on the shoulder, "That was my joke."

"Aaaaand now folks, we shall do the battling part of the Pokémon Coordinating. Our matchups are a bit finicky with all the type match ups, but we have decided Maya will be going against Drew while Alex will be going against Brittany. Aaa Are you ready folks!"

"Come on Thora, use Magical Leaf!"

The rainbow leaves flew up and down into a spiral, coning straight to Bella.

"Hyper Voice."

The torrent of war filtered the leaves in the opposite direction.

"And Drew already goes on the offensive, attacking with Magical Leaf. And what's that, Thora seems to be charging something."

"Swift."

The golden star shot out right as Thora jumped with her move now finished. The floral ray of light reflected off the stars and blinded everyone in the room.

"AH! I'm too dazzled to see what happened! Wait, is that a rainbow? And I hear Bella's song."

Bella had used hyper voice again. When everyone's sight returned, they saw Thora picking herself from the floor, and Light Screen floating above Bella.

"I can guess what happened. Solar Beam is mostly light, so it can be reflected off mirrors. Thora jumped into the air when it used Solar Beam, if angled right, it can be focused to the ground. Right where a Roserade could land."

Maya smiled.

"That reflection trick of yours was impressive, but take this! Toxic and Vine Whip!"

The Toxic attack got lashed on with the whip, and there was no way to stop it. Bella quickly summoned Misty Terran right as the attack hit. Bella glowed purple as the attack struck but the Misty Terrain wrapped itself around her and cured her of the poison with a brilliant flash.

"What! My toxic attack was ruined."

"I say this challenge is over, Light Screen, Swift."

The screen reflected the light towards the stars just like in round one, and Maya was rewarded with a beautiful end as the Roserade was finished by streaks of gold.

"T-T-That was AMAZING! A stunning performance by Mya, the colors, her form, all tricks in her multiple sleeves. Maya and her Primarina are one of the best duos I have ever seen! That battle was truly a spectacle tle was truly a spectacle and- what happened to the microphone?"

The light then went out.

"Juan, Juan!"

"I'm right here, take my hand, it's too dark. We can't get separated."

They're were mutters amongst the crowd as people whispered about culprits, among them were the Gamma team. Juan and Katie slowly made their way out of the stadium and into the open air.

"That was freaky, a power cut in the middle of the event." Katie said.

"Unfortunately for you, that wasn't the main event. However, kidnapping you is going to be much fun. Get em Mors."

The speaker was a young lady with lavender hair. She wore an amethyst around her neck and wore a black and gray body suit that had a cape. On her chest was a neon green badge with a G. Next to her was a tall Sneasler, its sharp claws poised at ready.

"Out Raptor!"

"Go, Celine"

In two flashes of light, a Staraptor and a Meowstic appeared.

"Oh, you're really stacking the weaknesses against me, but I have a question. Why fight you, when I have an ambush in waiting."

No sooner did those words leave her mouth a bunch of Gamma grunts leaped out of nowhere and grabbed both of them. Despite their struggles, they were bound and gagged.

"Unfortunately, we have no need for you. There are so many wonderful things I can do to you." the lady said, stepping close to him. "I could throw you off a building, bury you alive, or treat you like a discarded piece of waste. I think I'll go for the latter. Throw him into the dumpster."

The grunt holding him walked up to the nearest dumpster and dumped him in.

"Oh, and make sure you painfully knock him out."

The last thing Juan remembered was a blinding pain to his face.

Sometime later

Juan woke up to a sharp smell. He pushed away the bottle of smelling salt and sat up rubbing his nose.

"Where am I? Who are you?"

"I am an Oak Agent, and I need to ask you a few questions."

"I have no time for questions! My sister has been kidnapped by a crazy teenager and I have to rescue her!"

"Those were Gamma Team agents, and the crazy teenager is one of the higher ups. Her brain is a bit deformed from an incident long ago. You can't go after them."

"Fine, my head hurts. Can I get some fresh air?"

The Oak agent looked at him suspiciously.

"Fine, but I'm watching you."

He stepped outside and was immediately met with his Staraptor. The Pokémon nuzzled with him and chirped happily.

"No riding on that thing."

"It just came to greet me. Jeez."

He sat down on the grass and started whispering to his Pokémon. Raptor took flight and did aerial loops above him. He did some deep breathing on the grass and then did jumping jacks. He counted, loud enough for Raptor to hear.

"1…2…3…4…5…6!"

As soon as he counted six, Raptor dove.

"Hey kid! Stop!"

On the 7th jack, Raptor flew below him and swooped back up, Juan safely on his back.

"Come on Raptor, let's find Katie."

Seven minutes later

Below him, a battle was being fought. He dove down towards the people on the far side and immediately recognized them as Gamma grunts. He saw a damaged truck and the crazed teen with his sister. He was about to fly in when Raptor was hit by an icicle shard. He jumped and rolled on the ground recalling Raptor at the same time. Two Pokémon and their trainers turned to face him. One had a Cloyster while the other had a Raichu.

"Come on out, Quilava, Pio!"

"Seriously, a Quilava? My colyster's gonna- huh?"

What came out of the pokéball wasn't a Quilava, but a Servine.

"The hell, why'd you nickname it that?"

"Well, I thought that Snivy looked a lot like Cyndaquil so I named it after all its evolutionary stages."

"No wonder you need glasses! Cloyster, Icicle Shard!"

"Raichu, Thunderbolt!"

Quilava dodged the icicles while Pichu jumped in front of the Thunderbolt. It absorbed all the energy before rushing at the Cloyster. All of the energy it had was too much for it to hold and the Volt tackle it used resulted in knocking both Pokémon out.

"Argh, Quilava, Leaf Storm!" he quickly recalled Pio while the Cloyster dude freaked out.

The Raichu wasn't fazed much by the attack.

"That's all your scrawny lizard's got. It just weakened itself for a pitiful attack. Raichu, show em what real power's like. Thunderbolt!"

Quilava dodged the attack easily before firing off another Leaf Storm, this on dealing more damage.

"On the contrary, my Quilava's ability makes weakening moves, strengthening moves."

One more Leaf Storm did the trick, the Raichu slumped down in defeat. Juan sent out Raptor again and flew off in pursuit of the crazy teen. He spotted her on another truck, this one having a hard time through the forest terrain. He and Raptor dove into the truck, slamming into the teenager on they're way in. Juan rolled and crashed into the wall. He immediately stood up and checked his surroundings. His sister wasn't there.

"Haha, did you really think I was that foolish? Your sister isn't here, I knew you'd follow me. It pays to plan ahead. And now, I can beat you and your pathetic Pokémon. Let's have some fun together."

The door to the back of the truck slammed shut as lights flickered on. She gave Juan a ghostly smile.

"My name is Olivia Cartwright and I challenge you to a battle." she giggled softly. "Loser gets thrown out of the truck at high speeds. If you decide you don't want to fight, then the ground is eager to meet you."

"Fine! You're a twisted person. Why would anyone one of your age want to do this?"

Her cruel smile faded and was replaced with an angry look. "I may act like I care about the Gamma Team, but I don't. All that matters is the end game. I just can't wait to see the look on the geezer's face when I collapse everything he worked to build. Mors, end him."

In a bright flash, the Sneasler appeared. It slashed its claws together. Raptor flew forward, ready for battle.

"Let's see how your Staraptor handles boosted attacks, Swords Dance!"

Six magic swords twisted in the air and clashed. Mors glowed orange as its power increased.

"Raptor, use Double Team!"

Raptor vibrated so fast that multiple copies of itself appeared, similar to what Xander did, only that these copies were not ethereal.

"An obvious trick, Mors, us Ice Punch on the middle one!"

"Raptor, Fly!"

All copies flew into the air, narrowly dodging Mors' Ice Punch. They then dove down and tried to strike him. Mors neatly dodged the attack.

"Keep using ice punch until that bird falls from the sky!"

"You have the aerial advantage here. Don't get into reach!"

Both Pokémon couldn't hit each other, the fight wore on as both Pokémon started to tire. Raptor pulled a desperate move. It made another unsuccessful dive bomb and instead of pulling up, turned and met Sneasler's Ice Punch. Sneasler's attack boost had worn off long ago and its wearniess didn't help. After taking the punch, he grabbed Mors and lifted him into the air and threw him into the wall. In the time it took for Mors to recover, raptor quickly used Roost. Mors quickly used the opportunity and used Ice Punch. However, it did even less than before.

"When Roost is used, it causes the user to lose its Flying type. Making it lose a lot of its prior weakness."

"Oh, but that means, Mors, Drain Punch!"

"Dodge it! Fast!"

But Mors was too determined. It hit Raptor and started draining energy, but raptor grabbed Mors, flew into the air and threw it on the ground. Then, Raptor charged at him and smashed into Mors. He was unable to battle.

"Huh, can't say I expected that, but what will you do against, Congelatio!"

In a flash, the Froslass appeared.

"Spikes!"

Congelatio waved its arms and started sending out spikes to cover the floor.

"Oh no you don't, Raptor, Fly!"

Congelatio expected that and immediately stopped, then she unleashed Ice Beam. The bird harmlessly crashed to the ground, frozen.

"Return, go, Pio!"

The little Pichu appeared dangerously close to a spike.

"Really, that is supposed to beat Congelatio. Use Shadow Ball!"

Pio was insanely fast and dodged it, it leaped into the air at Congelatio right as it used Ice Beam.

"Iron tail!"

Pio spun in mid-air, his tail breaking the ice chunks as they solidified. It crashed into Congelatio delivering a lot of force for a Pokémon that small.

"Follow it up with Volt Tackle!"

"Will O Wisp!"

Congelatio couldn't recover in time from the nasty slap before Pio went hell mode on it. It raced around Congelati, beating it up with its tiny electrified body. Here's the thing about Pichu. It has as much electricity as Pikachu. But Pickachu can control how much it uses, Pichu can't. This is why it's more prone to burning itself out.

Pio leaped back and summoned a huge Thunderbolt, the move defeating Congelatio but causing Pio to fall down. Tired and burnt out.

"Rest easy buddy."

"That was a cheap trick you can't beat Nerium. Who's your last Pokémon going to be? Go, Nerium!"

"Out, Quilava!"

The Servine appeared and faced down the Espeon. Olivia however, stopped cold.

"Unovan Pokémon, those Damn Unovan Pokémon! I wished they were left in a melting lab to die! I will destroy it! I'll destroy all Unovan Pokémon! Nerium, Psychic!"

"The hell's gotten into you! Quilava dodge it and use Leaf Storm!"

Quilava jumped away from the psychic and fired its signature move.

"Aim properly you fool Use Psychic and make its life miserable, or else I'll be doing that to you!."

"Dodge it again!"

This time Quilava wasn't so lucky. The psychic hold enveloped him and he was thrown against the wall.

"Shadow Ball, Dazzling Gleam!"

Both attacks were used in quick succession and Quilava was given no chance to recover.

"Smash it against the spikes, whatever it takes!"

Quilava was smashed and dragged all over the floor, the spikes adding to more damage. He clearly wasn't able to battle anymore, but the messed up teenager would let up.

"Hang in their Quilava! I'm coming!"

He ran forward only to be thrown against the wall.

"Uh uh uh, this is a Pokémon battle."

Juan struggled to get up, seeing his Pokémon being treated like this incited a rage within, and Quilava seeing his trainer being treated like that incited the same rage.

Quilava became surrounded by a white glow, it morphed and shifted. And then it evolved into Serperior. Now free from Nerium's grasp, he struck fast and furiously. He attacked with Leaf Storm and then attacked with Giga drain, revitalizing itself. It then slithered through the spikes and grabbed Nerium and used Wrap. He flung it to the far wall where it slammed painfully, Quilava was about to unleash another attack when Juan held up his hand.

"Nerium is unable to battle, we've won."

He returned his Pokémon to its ball and turned to face Olivia.

"What the hell was that about?"

Olivia was no longer crazy acting crazy, she had tears coming down her eyes

No one's POV

13 Years ago

Olivia Cartwright was on the floor playing with discarded lab pieces while her father, Horatio Cartwright, was making a big project. He and his team were trying to bring a 300 million year old fossil alive.

"How is the fossil? Which stage have we reached, integrity?" ha asked nervously. Clearly this project was huge and had taken an effect on him.

"It has achieved egg form, and with the incubator on, should hatch in fifteen minutes. From there, we can see if it has come out as expected. Integrity is at 87%." said one of the scientists.

"Yes, Project Genesect is almost complete.

A security member came running toward Horatio "Sir! We have a breach in the lab by Team Plasma!"

"What! So they're here to steal Project Genesis, lock down the lab. We can't have them getting inside."

"Already done, sir. They shoul-"

There was an explosion as the reinforced doors flew out. A series of more explosions sounded as rubble started falling. Alarms blared as everyone started panicking.

"Quick! take my daughter-"

Another explosion came inside the lab and knocked them to their feet. Olivia was crying as the security member scooped her up and tried running. But a blast of light took him to his feet.

"Containment tanks destroyed, radiation levels increasing. Evacuate immediately." An automated voice said.

"Dammit, just take whatever you can and get out of here. Especially Project Genesect."

"Yes sir!" came a chorus of voices. The grunts ran in and started looting the place. No stone left unturned.

"Sir, we found a child!"

"Leave her, she'll die of radioactive poisoning anyways."

"But sir-"

"Not buts about it. Now hurry up!"

Hours later

"Lieutenant O'Riley! We found a child! She's alive but is sick with radioactive poisoning."

"It's a miracle she's alive, any other survivors found inside?"

"Just two scientists, the rest either died or escaped."

"A team Plasma attack, interesting. Both groups are involved in illegal activities, why attack the other?"

Present day

"Now you understand why I hate Unova so much, and all of its Pokémon and people," Oliva said, wiping tears from her face.

He thought back to the news article, about the attacks on Team Plasma.

"It was you, wasn't it, the one who attacked Team Plasma."

"Yes, I wanted revenge on them for what they did. And I won't stop until I do."

"Oh come one, you're telling me where my sister is, and then you're going off to jail."

"I really like you, and you gave me one of the most thrilling battles ever. But I can't stop until I've defeated Ghetsis. But I can tell you where your sister is. However, the only way you can get her back is by infiltrating the base."

"That doesn't help at all! Stop this! Like I said, we're getting my sister, then I'm turning you in." Juan said, almost breaking into tears.

The truck doors opened as Olivia latched onto a crate. "I'm sorry it has to be this way, but I can't stop until I get my revenge. I promise to take good care of your sister.

"I can't stop until I get her back! You know that."

"Goodbye Juan."

And with that, the truck stopped suddenly, tumbling Juan out of the truck and onto the hard road. It was nighttime now. Juan stood up and wiped tears from his face. He was going to get her back no matter what.

Lights shone behind him, but he didn't care. He'd get up and keep going. A bunch of Oak Agency vehicles drove past him in pursuit of the truck. A few of them stopped, out of one came the agent that had been watching over him.

"Finally, it took us forever to get your signal."

"Signal?"

"I took the liberty of hiding a camera with a tracker on your person in case you tried to escape. I heard and saw what happened. You did great out there."

"But I never saved her."

"Don't worry, we'll find her, and the next time you go after her, you'll have a team of trained operatives along with you."

"Are you trying to say?" hope fluttered with Juan

"Yep, the Captain took notice of your skills, said he could use someone like you on Oak Alpha."


And that is the conclusion to chapter two. I have actually received two new OC submissions for the gamma side, so start expecting more stories about them.
