Britain, London

"Good catch there."

Josh laughs at my expense after I somehow fumbled up catching a Caterpie in Pokémon Go, to be fair it had been quite a while since I last played, and the only reason I am still playing is that my friends invited me for a meetup, I am quite surprised that they aren't even worrying over our essay which are due next week!. "I'd like to see you try to catch a Pokémon while running."I challenged "I just did." He then proceeded to shove his phone in my face, showing a shiny Ralts he had just caught while running, I sighed knowing his luck that every time I challenged him, he would succeed. "So, Will, did you get Scarlet and Violet DLC yet? I had not, I was too busy preparing for a Pokémon showdown championship, I had won quite a few and even earned a cash prize once. "I have not, I was too busy for the championships." and our exams too, but those take less priority over the championships "Dude every time you talk about the 'championship' it sounds like you are competing in one, like in the pokemon world" I tried to rebuke his claim but before I could he interrupted me "There more to life than getting good grades and pokemon you know" which he then showed a photo of the mountains of Scottland from his phone. "My mum went there once when she was younger" he then proceeded to look at me "I know you can't go to Scottland because you don't have enough money to get there but you try to get out of the dorms more!" I tried to come up with a responds to explain that I wasn't obsessed with Pokemon, but I failed to come up with a response, so I just left it at that

After a while, we arrived at Josh's dorm. It is only a floor above mine, so I didn't mind walking up a few more steps. His dorm was interesting because it had two floors but he did pay more, so it was all fair in the end. We went upstairs because that is where his living room was "I still don't understand why he didn't put it on the first floor." I thought to myself "Oh yeah, watch out for that step there."I tried to ask what he meant, but before I was able to say anything, I slipped on a random item before my head hit the ground the ground. I was in a massive amount of pain, I reached out my hand to check on my head, but only to see blood "Is that mine."I asked out loud, I also heard Josh rushing down to me and saying something, but I could not understand what he was saying. "So is this how it all ends, huh, I thought it would end after I was finished with my life but I did not think it would be before I could even finish college." I turned my head towards the carpet and saw blood staining nearly every surface of the carpet. I turned my head back to look at the ceiling "What have I truly done with my life". I thought "I finished top of my class in high school, got a scholarship into UCL, won a few competitive competitions, finished the entirety of Sword and Shield, made some good friends and I guess made a somewhat decent computer." as I took one last breath, my final thought would be "I should've used Porygon Z over Chansey.", as I closed my eyes one last time.

?

I opened my eyes, expecting to see an afterlife of some kind. However, what awaited me was a green field, and a backpack was right in front of me. I went over to the backpack and opened it to see what lay inside. What lay inside was an off-brand Chinese laptop, a water bottle, some candy bars, and a Pokeball, well that anti-climatic, you would think that there would be more...wait a fucking second is that a Pokeball. I immediately picked up the Pokeball and examined it, it looked more real and heavier than all other models I'd seen, you know it almost makes you think that there was a Pokemon in it. I threw the Pokeball on the grass expecting it to break or for nothing to happen but then a sudden burst of light came out of it and what lay there was a Porygon... OK, . .

"Porygon"

I stood there dumbfounded as I contemplated my current situation, somehow after dying I had been Isekaied into Pokémon. I collected my thoughts and thought about how to approach this situation. After a while, I decided that speaking to it was the best course of action, after all, it had worked for Ash in the anime. "So umm, hi there buddy" I tried to approach it like Hiccup from How to Train Your Dragon, and when I was doing that the Porygon looked confused, almost like it already knew me. It moves towards me and just then I notice that it looks nearly the same as my Porygon, it couldn't be, right? I had to test out my theory "OK then if you know what I am talking about, nod, if not, shake your head" I told it, Porygon blinked for a few seconds before nodding, "Alright, let us begin, so do you know about the United kingdoms" Porygon nodded "What about the queen." Porygon nodded once more " OK, let's try something harder, how about Hollow Knight...".

So, after finishing up my questions, I confirmed that this was the Porygon I had caught a few years back in Bath. It also seems to remember all our battles together, including every battle conducted in Pokemon Showdown as the Porygon has transferred all my phone data, from every battle in Pokemon Showdown, the entirety of Wikipedia, apps from my phone, and my search history. This also means that Porygon knows every character from both games and anime, as well as the stats and behavior of every Pokemon and more, this means that I must be extremely careful about..why is it staring at me like that "Pory" now I may not know poke speech but that sounded like the Pokemon equivalent of "bruh", I wondered for a few moments and realized that Porygon knows about me to a psychological level, as he can access my documents and see all the fanfiction I wrote. "I kinda regret not deleting all those cringy Gary stu self-inserts I made, "I said to Porygon directly, Porygon ignored my comment and proceeded to move toward the backpack and took out the laptop and a few sheets of paper, it dropped the items right in front of me "pory, gon" it seems like Porygon wanted me to check the items, I turned on the laptop to see who or whatever brought me here, had archived all the entirety of internet onto this laptop, however, I could not contact anyone back on earth "This feels like that one anime where the main protagonist had a smartphone." I thought to myself, after I checked the pieces of paper Porygon got me, I had expected it to be from Arceus saying "You had died but I gave you a second chance." or something similar, however, I did not expect it to be an identification document it even had a passport attached it that I didn't notice before, somehow and the most important thing I missed a trainers license "let see what this says, hmmm, William Brown…age 12, wait what?" I took a double check at myself and slowly concluded that I had somehow regressed in age by seven years, however, I needed to check with another source "Hey, Porygon" Porygon turned to look at me "Do I look younger?" Porygon took a closer look before nodding, was I in a fucking fabrication? Never mind that I had to figure out if I was in the anime or games. "So Porygon, do you, umm, want to go on another journey?" Porygon simply nodded, excitement rose through me, after so many years I could finally live out my dream of being a Pokémon trainer, but at what cost…I'll just deal with it later, for now, I've got an adventure to finish "Let go Porygon, adventures await!"

"How much more?" I asked Porygon, Porygon looked forward and then turned back to me and said something in Poke speech which roughly translates to "Just a bit more".

To recap the past few hours, we went adventuring a bit, only to be attacked by what I assume, was a very angry Onix, Porygon tried to fight it, however, it must have forgotten that it was no longer a Porygon Z nor did it know Tri Attack, so I returned it and quickly ran away. After the Onix lost us, I now know that we were In the Wild area which meant we were in Galar "At least it isn't Sinnoh or Alola, I would rather deal with Ragnarok than a fanatical terrorist group who can destroy the universe and the SCP foundation" I said, Porygon nodded in agreement. After walking aimlessly for about an hour, I came up with a plan "Alright, Porygon, does Google Maps work?" Porygon processed the information for a bit before nodding "Point to the nearest settlement." Porygon once more processed the information and pointed south "Let's get moving then".

and that's how why we are walking somewhere, should've specified in what mode of transportation, as getting to the nearest settlement is three minutes by flying, the same can't be said for walking. "Pory, Gon, Pory" Oi what do you mean this is my fault, you're the one who didn't use common sense and swapped to walking instead you looked at the flight time.

After walking for a bit, we entered what I assume was Route 4. As soon as we arrived, a Pokemon breeder challenged us to a battle, I think he said something along the lines of "Our eyes meet, we have to battle" No wait, that was Youngster Joey, eh who cares, let us get on with the battle.

We went a bit far from the road and arrived at a plain field of grass, where then they had to call an adult to supervise the match, unfortunately, all the adults were too busy to supervise, so I guess we won't be having a battle toda- "Hey look, it's gym leader Milo, how about we ask him if he's free and can supervise our match." fuck, I don't want to get involved with a member of the league just yet but it would be rude if I just left, so I silently followed behind. I and the other trainer approached him as he was walking back to Turffield "Hey mister Milo, can you supervise our match?" he looked quite surprised seeing us "Oh hello there kids, I wasn't expecting you here, so I heard you needed my help in supervising your match?" we both nodded our heads "I would be happy to help!" he said, while I was analyzing him, so far he looked and acted the same as he did in the games but let's analyze him later, the battle takes priority. After walking back to the field, he asked if we were ready, we both nodded "On my mark throw out your Pokémon. we nodded once more "1" If I remember correctly, he was the first trainer on route 4 "2" he has a Galarian Meowth, a Seedot, and a Butterfree, all level 15 "3" Butterfree has a weakness to both ice and electric, while Seedot is weak to ice and blizzard and blizzard should deal with the Meowth "GO!"

Both Butterfree and Porygon entered the field "Butterfree use tackle!" Butterfree charges at Porygon, who dodges with ease "It's my turn" I thought to myself "Porygon, Thunder Shock" Porygon fires off the attack and hits Butterfree square in the chest, Butterfree is sent to the ground, paralyzed. "Butterfree, get up and use Poison pow-" I interrupted him "Not so fast, Porygon, Thunder Shock again" Porygon once more fired off another Thundershock, this time stronger than the last, and then Butterfree went down for good "Butterfree is down, the round goes to Porygon!" alright, Blizzard should deal with the rest "Send out your next Pokemon!" Seedot is most likely going to be the next "Seedot, you're up!" I knew it, Seedot entered the field, ready for battle "Seedot, use Astonish!" the attack made Porygon flinch "Good! Seedot, use Rollout now!" the attack sent Poryback back, a bit 'Quite a nasty blow' I thought to myself "Porygon, get up and use Blizzard." the other trainer eyes went wide as plates "Seedot, get out of the way!" Porygon recovers and uses Blizzard, Seedot tries to get away but fails, and ice completely surrounds the poor Seedot, after the ice dissipates the Seedot is on the ground, not to rise for the remainder of the match. "Seedot is unable to battle, the second round goes to Porygon" The last would be the Meowth, the trickiest of the three "Send out your last Pokemon!" the other trainer, eyes now concentrated on winning, sends out Meowth "Meowth, use Scratch!" the attack bearly does any damage to Porygon "Porygon, counter with Blizzard" Porygon uses Blizzard, however this time, the attack misses 'What was the saying again, ah yes, if it is not a 100% it is 50%.' "Moewth use Metal Claw!" Wait what. The attack crits Porygon, dealing a good chunk of damage, there is no time to question how Moewth knows Metal Claw at level 14, "Porygon, paralyze Meowth with Thunder Shock." the attack, unfortunately, does not paralyze Meowth but it does crit Meowth, most likely putting it in the red "Meowth use-" it time to end this "Porygon, end this." Porygon tackles the Meowth and it faints. "Meowth is unable to battle, the winner of this battle is trainer..." "William, William Brown." I said, "The winner of this battle is trainer William Brown!" the other trainer came up to me and handed me 1,400 dollars, he looked quite sad from losing the battle "Hey, stand proud you are strong, you did quite well." the other trainer looked up at me and said, "Thank you." I turned to walk back to the path but I heard the other trainer shout "Wait, I haven't gotten your number yet!"I quickly turned back around and said "I don't have a phone" he looked quite surprised "You don't?" I nodded my head "Um, well, you can mine then" It was my turn to look surprised "You really don-" he shook his head "Don't you worry, I have an extra phone at home, besides, this one is quite old, I've been meaning to give it away." oddly convenient. I accepted the phone as it would be rude to object "Oh yeah, we don't have to exchange our number either as I already put my phone number in there" I feel like an anime protagonist with the amount of plot armor I have, before he left I asked for his name "My name is Jaime." I was about to ask him about his last name but he left before I could ask, Milo also left after some time 'Huh, he must've gone back to the gym' I turned to go back to route 4.

Walking back a bit I saw Milo waiting for me expectingly on the route, I was kinda worried he thought I was suspicious however his eyes turned from analytical to concerned "Are you okay?" I was confused for a bit until I checked my clothes, they were still the same clothes I had worn when I died, however, blood stained my blue coat and white shirt, and my tie was saved from staining, to be honest, I looked out of place as my attire was for a formal occasion I was going to attend before I sadly perished, even stranger is that my clothing had shrunken with me. "I am fine sir, I simply fell on a tomato." That was the worst excuse I ever came up with, but somehow he'd believed it 'Bless his poor heart, he was one of my favorite gym leaders.' "Please don't call me sir, you can just call me Milo, and may I ask where are you from?" time to come up with convincing lies and half lies. "I am from Motostoke." it is the closest thing to London in the Pokemon universe "Ah I see but I wonder why you are in Route 4 of all places?" huh, I thought he would think I trainer in the gym circuit "I am attempting to do the gym circuit" Milo looked confused "The league season is ending in two months though?" Oh shit, I forgot to account for when I appeared "I did not want to deal with the press during the early league season." with enough confidence, anyone will believe what you say. Milo accepted the answer by nodding his head "So where did you get the idea to use Porygon as a battler, the only times I've seen Porygons are in labs?" a pretty normal question for a person who doesn't know about the UU competitive scene "It was first Pokemon I could get my hands on." he looked at me questionably wanting me to continue on "Let me rephrase that, it was the first Pokemon I've ever bonded with, even though Porygon was never meant for battling I've always wanted to get big in the battling scene, so it did all it could to help me reach that goal" a half-lie, Porygon is one of my favorite Pokémon that still use to this day."Ah yes, I remember the first day when I caught my Eldegoss when it was still a Gossifleur, always wanting to help with the farmwork." He reminisced "Now this brings me back to my original point of waiting here, to critique your battle." I felt a bit of pressure with him staring into my soul "And I have to say..." did he manage to find a hole within my answers? "it was one of the best battles I've seen for beginners!" all the pressures fade the moment he said that a small sense of pride rose through me "The use of status effects and type effectiveness was on par with intermediate trainer! And how could I not forget that you used only one Pokémon to win the entire battle!" he praised "However, I advise that you get more Pokémon." already planning on that. "So are you planning on challenging my gym?" I nodded "Well then, I'll have a battle reserved for you..." he asked "Anytime would be fine" I answered, "Alright I'll have a battle reserved for 8 o'clock morning on Monday next week." I nodded once more "Great I'll see you later then." Milo proceeded to walk back to his gym, 'Alright then, I guess I just have to prepare to go to Milo's gym.'. I went around Route 4 to get the Nest Ball in the grass and the paralyze healed, after getting all the valuable items on Route 4 I headed towards the miner by the entrance of the Galar mine to heal my Porygon. After getting Porygon healed I went into the caves and said "What could go wrong?
