6 months later


Ash took a deep breath. In the last six months, a lot had changed, and now he was closer than ever to completing this dungeon.

One of the biggest shifts came when bullets stopped working on the mutants. Only a few weapons were still effective against them, and that had forced Ash to adapt his strategy.

He had also made several upgrades to his gear, much to Pikachu's annoyance. The little Electric-type had been frustrated when he realized bullets no longer had any effect.

After clearing the 47th level of the dungeon, Ash was determined to finish everything today.

Stepping into the Elite Four's first room, he readied himself for the challenges of level 48.

Inside the room, two mutants waited for Ash: a mutant Tyranitar and a mutant Aerodactyl.

The Tyranitar was an imposing sight. Its massive body was covered in deep, cracked black scales that shimmered with a dark purple glow. Its limbs were thicker and more powerful, with enormous claws gleaming with malice. Its glowing red eyes pierced through the air, and the ground shook beneath its feet as dark, oppressive energy radiated from it.

The Aerodactyl was twisted yet majestic. Its skeletal wings stretched unnaturally wide, making it seem larger than life. The bones glowed faintly with a ghostly blue light, and jagged, ethereal armor covered parts of its body. Its intense green eyes burned with fury, and its screech sent shockwaves through the air.

Ash activated Analyze before either of the mutants could make a move.

Mutant Tyranitar

Lvl: 60

Info: A Pokémon once owned by the Legendary Pokémon Master Red. This was one of the first to fall and be transformed into a mutant. However, since the process was still new at the time, it became weaker instead of stronger.

"Kirlia, Eilie, fuse! Pikachu, let's go ultimate!" Ash commanded.

In an instant, Kirlia and Eilie fused together. One of Kirlia's horns and her eyes shifted to match Eilie's, while her body adopted the same patterns as Eilie's. Her form grew wings, and a tail stretched out, ten times the length of her own body, giving her an imposing presence.

Pikachu stood still, surrounded by swirling blue and yellow light. The energy pulsed, building into a radiant glow, before it finally faded. When the light disappeared, Ultimate Pikachu emerged.

Standing as tall as a human, its fur was a deep, shimmering orange, almost as if charged with raw electricity. The black circles on its cheeks gleamed, now surrounded by crackling bolts of yellow lightning that arced like miniature storms. Its sharp, jagged tail, longer than ever, coiled and uncoiled like a live wire, with sparks constantly jumping from its tip.

Its chest was marked with a bold, black lightning bolt running down its belly, pulsing with each beat of its heart. Its startling blue eyes burned with intensity, glowing brighter than any storm, reflecting its newfound power and ferocity. The air around it buzzed with electricity, and the ground beneath it seemed to hum, resonating with the sheer force of its presence.

Ultimate Pikachu wasn't just a Pokémon anymore—it was an embodiment of a storm, ready to tear through anything in its path.

"Pikachu, take care of the flying one. We'll handle this!" Ash commanded, his confident grin hidden behind his helmet.

"System, turn off cosmetic armor function!" Ash ordered, and his armor vanished, leaving behind the visible arsenal of weapons—cannons, a shotgun, a rocket launcher, and a wrist-mounted crossbow.

With a smirk, Ash also dropped his Nephilim disguise, revealing his true form. His features became more striking, one angelic wing unfurling on his left, while a fallen angel's wing stretched out on his right.

The mutant pseudo-legendary Tyranitar roared, and the air filled with danger as hundreds, if not thousands, of jagged rocks, coated in impure dark energy, shot toward them with lethal intent.

Ash grinned, unfazed by the onslaught. "Kirlia-Y, get behind me!" The fused Pokémon obediently nodded, retreating behind their father figure.

"Purity Dome!" Ash commanded, and a brilliant dome of sparkling blue water materialized around them, shimmering with protective energy. "Anti-Matter Shield!" he added, layering the dome with a void-like material. The anti-matter shield was impenetrable—anything that tried to pass through would be unmade, reduced to its very fiber, and absorbed as extra energy for Ash.

While Ash couldn't see the rocks striking the barrier, he could feel it—hundreds of jagged stones colliding with the anti-matter shield, each one disintegrating and turning into raw energy. Though it was a powerful defense, Ash knew that keeping his mind focused was key, which is why the Purity Dome was essential, shielding him from distractions in the heat of battle.

As the barrage of rocks finally stopped, Ash deactivated the barriers, and both he and Kirlia-Y shot into the air, splitting in opposite directions. The mutant Tyranitar remained fixated on Ash, launching an unrelenting storm of Shadow Balls without pause. Ash dodged most of them with agile movements, while those that came too close were obliterated by his water cannons or his shoulder-mounted miniature shotgun.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Kirlia-Y gathered their hands together, a small pink glow building between them. Their wings and tail, now shaped like a 'Y,' radiated with dark energy, creating a stark contrast to the pure light. With a sudden movement, they raised their arm above their head, and an imaginary full moon appeared behind them, glowing with a brilliant aura. From the moon, a massive beam of fairy energy shot forward. As it passed through Kirlia-Y's wings, the pure fairy energy became tainted, merging harmoniously with dark energy, amplifying the attack's power exponentially.

"Blood Moon Blast!" Kirlia-Y called out, and the colossal beam engulfed the mutant Tyranitar, drowning it in a fusion of light and darkness.

Ash took advantage of the distraction, aiming his wrist-mounted crossbow with precision. Fire, Water, and Lightning surged through his arm, combining into a singular energy blob that formed into a bolt on the crossbow.

"Try elemental bolt!" Ash shouted, releasing the powerful projectile. As the bolt sped toward the mutant, several mana bombs fired from his shoulder-mounted rocket launcher, their energy trails cutting through the air like streaks of light, ready to cause devastation.

With a loud boom, the elemental bolt and mana bombs struck the mutant Tyranitar in a brilliant explosion of light and energy. The force of the impact shook the air, and the mutant's roar was abruptly silenced, swallowed by the deafening blast. The ground beneath them trembled as debris and dust were sent flying in every direction. For a moment, everything was still—then, from the cloud of smoke and shattered earth, the silhouette of the mutant's massive form began to collapse, crumbling into nothingness as its power faded.

A system window popped into existence infront of Ash.

"Nice," Ash muttered as he slowly landed, a sheen of perspiration coating his forehead.

"The attack took nearly all my mana!" he said, feeling the weight of exhaustion.

"Yep, ours too," Kirlia-Y added, their voice bright with enthusiasm despite the fatigue. "But thanks to that level-up, we're all refreshed now!"

Suddenly, Ultimate Pikachu jumped in front of them, holding up the severed head of the Mutant Fossil Pokémon, still covered in scorch marks and small cuts. "I WANT TO KEEP IT!" he declared proudly, a wide, mischievous grin on his face.

"Huh?" Ash exclaimed in shock.

"Yep! I want it as a trophy!" Ultimate Pikachu repeated, eyes gleaming with excitement.

Kirlia-Y tilted their head, their expression curious. "Do you want to skull fuck that?"

Ultimate Pikachu's face twisted in disgust. "No, why would I do that?" he replied with a frown.

The fused Pokémon shrugged.

Ash blinked in confusion. "What does that mean?"

"Well, you put your pe—"

"NO! He's not old or mature enough to know that!" Pikachu interrupted, leaping up and quickly covering Kirlia-Y's mouth with his paw.

Kirlia-Y looked up, confused. "Why can't father know about that?"

Ultimate Pikachu whispered something into Kirlia-Y's ear, who nodded in understanding. "Your father is a human. Unlike us, they mature slower. You'll scar him at this rate."

Ash glanced between them, more confused than ever. "What was that about?"

"Nothing! Let's go ahead!" Ultimate Pikachu said casually, as if nothing had happened.

"Alright," Ash said, still suspicious but trying to brush it off, folding his wings behind his back and following Pikachu's lead.

"Pikachu, wait! I think given the challenge ahead, we need more help!" Ash said, holding an Ultra Ball in his hands.

"You mean him?" Ultimate Pikachu asked, a tick mark appearing on his head.

"Yep," Ash nodded with a smile, tossing the Ultra Ball into the air. "Zekrom, I choose you!"

The ball burst open, releasing the powerful Legendary Pokémon with a flash of light. Zekrom appeared, his massive form crackling with electric energy. His body was a sleek, imposing black, with sharp, angular lines and glowing blue electric circuits running along his chest and wings. His fierce red eyes glowed with intensity, and his wings, while massive, were bat-like with jagged edges that gave him a menacing, yet regal presence. The air around him seemed to hum with his powerful electricity, making his aura even more intimidating.

Flashback: 5 Months Earlier


Ash and Serena had just received their first gym badges, and now they were heading toward the next city.

"Team Plasma is just complete nonsense, don't you agree?" Serena asked, shaking her head.

"Yeah, but I've got something else on my mind," Ash replied with a thoughtful look.

"Oh? And what's that?" Serena inquired.

Ash sighed, glancing ahead. "I mean, at the rate we're going, it's going to take years to complete this mission. It took us a whole month to win our first badge, not because we're weak, but because we don't have enough time."

"So, how do we solve that?" Serena asked, frowning slightly. "We only have six hours a day for this, and honestly, I'm just happy to be spending time with you."

Ash smiled at her, grateful. "I don't have all the answers yet, but I do have something that can help us reach Zekrom and Reshiram faster than we thought."

He pulled out a unique compass—half black, half white—and held it up.

"What's that?" Serena asked, her curiosity piqued.

"This is the Legendary Locator. I got it from the Gacha. It shows the location of any Pokémon, but there's a catch. It can only show one at a time, and won't show any others until that Pokémon is encountered. But since Kyurem, Zekrom, and Reshiram were once a single entity, we can track them all with it."

Serena's eyes widened in excitement. "That's amazing!"

Ash chuckled. "Yeah, but that's not all. I also got a new racial ability." He glanced at Pikachu, who was perched on his shoulder, then at Kirlia on his other shoulder. Eilie, in her bracelet form, shimmered quietly. "Watch this." In an instant, the three Pokémon became invisible, vanishing from sight.

And that's how Ash got Zekrom, while Serena got Reshiram. Unfortunately, they couldn't get Kyurem just yet; they couldn't access the Giant Chasm until they became Champions, and even with Ash's new ability, he couldn't get in while invisible.

End Flashback


"Master Ash, how may I assist you?" Zekrom bowed respectfully as he materialized, the energy around him vibrating with every movement.

Ultimate Pikachu groaned in annoyance. "Zekrom!"

"Hello, Mr. Pikachu! You're looking quite striking today. Do you perhaps have a need of me?" Zekrom asked, a blush coloring his face as he spoke, his body crackling with excitement.

Kirlia-Y flew behind Ash, watching the exchange with mischievous amusement. "He's acting quite gay today!" they giggled.

"Yep, he's looking pretty happy," Ash said with a grin, enjoying the awkward moment.

'I didn't mean that, but fine,' Kirlia-Y thought to themself, clearly flustered by the exchange.

"We don't have time to chit-chat. Zekrom, you're with Kirlia-Y—don't let them get hurt. Pikachu, you're with me!" Ash's eyes turned cold and calculating, his game face fully on.

"Yes~!" Ultimate Pikachu responded, his voice filled with enthusiasm.

"Okay," Zekrom said, his tone serious and focused.

The next room they entered was Bruno's, the second Elite Four member. Inside, they found a mutant Espeon and a mutant Lapras.

The Espeon had an elegant but horrifying beauty. Its fur shimmered with a silver sheen, streaked with black veins, while its crimson eyes glowed with an unnatural light. Its tail, once thin and graceful, had grown long and crystalline, radiating faint but dangerous psychic energy. The air around it seemed to distort, crackling with an invisible force.

The Lapras, regal and majestic, had scales of ice and crystal that glimmered like diamonds. Its body was larger and more elongated than usual, with sharp crystalline fins that appeared as if they were forged in a winter storm. A cold mist surrounded its body, creating a chilling presence that warped the space around it.

————————————————————————

Ash nodded, signaling for Zekrom and Kirlia-Y to rush at the mutant Espeon, while he and Pikachu focused on taking down the Water-type mutant Lapras.

The mutant let out five Ice Beams from its mouth, intending to freeze them. Four beams targeted Ash while one went for Pikachu.

Ash calmly aimed his palm at the incoming ice beams. "Flames of Chaos!" he commanded, and an inferno of red flames erupted from his palm, consuming the beams of ice in an instant, leaving only faint traces of mist behind.

Ultimate Pikachu's tail turned black, with violet sparks of red lightning surrounding it. The energy quickly morphed into flames as he easily cut through the Ice Beam directed at him. With swift precision, Pikachu shot a bolt of lightning at the mutant.

Lapras, reacting quickly, slammed its flippers on the ground. Large chunks of rock erupted, intercepting the red lightning bolt mid-air and causing a series of explosions. The mutant let out a disturbing shriek, retaliating by summoning more rocks and launching them toward Ash and Ultimate Pikachu.

'I'll do this like a normal trainer,' Ash thought, a grin tugging at his lips. "Pikachu, Magnet Rise and Surf!"

Pikachu, momentarily confused by Ash's decision to use classic battle commands, caught on quickly. Smirking, he gave Ash a thumbs-up, his feet leaving the ground as he activated Magnet Rise. Then, he summoned an enormous wave, which rose from beneath him and began rushing toward the mutant Lapras with immense force.

"Now, jump back!" Ash commanded.

Ultimate Pikachu leapt back, just as the mutant Lapras summoned a fierce Blizzard to freeze the massive wave of water in place. The air turned frigid, and the once-swirling wave became an icy barrier between them.

"Flame Lightning!" Ash shouted.

With precision, Pikachu unleashed a small bolt of red lightning at the frozen wave. As soon as the red energy made contact, the ice quickly melted, the water bubbling and boiling as it became charged with electric energy. The mutant Lapras let out a silent shriek as the electrified, boiling water submerged it, the intense heat and power overwhelming its defenses.

"Now, Thunder!" Ash gave the final command.

Ultimate Pikachu released an immensely powerful bolt of lightning. The electricity, amplified by the water, crackled violently. Upon impact, the water vaporized instantly, filling the area with dense steam. Within the fog, a writhing black silhouette could barely be seen as it slowly crumbled away, the once formidable mutant reduced to nothingness.

"That was easy!" Ultimate Pikachu exclaimed, landing confidently behind Ash.

"It was," Ash nodded, watching as the battle unfolded with impressive ease.

Meanwhile, Kirlia-Y and Kyurem faced off against the mutant Espeon. The creature's crystalline tail swished, and in response, hundreds of large crystal shards materialized out of thin air, launching toward the two legendaries.

Kyurem tensed, preparing for the impact, but Kirlia-Y remained unfazed, their calm demeanor contrasting the chaotic attack.

"Don't worry, it's a distraction," Kirlia-Y said, their wings glowing dark red. In a sudden motion, their wing, resembling a claw, caught something in midair.

The mutant Espeon had appeared behind them, but in that instant, the shards vanished, revealing their true nature as mere illusions.

Zekrom's tail hummed with blue lightning, his body surrounded by an electromagnetic field. Between his claws, a ball of blue electricity formed, and he launched it at the mutant.

The ball struck the ground beneath the mutant, causing a large explosion that left a smoking crater, but the mutant had vanished.

"Illusions!" Zekrom growled in frustration, his eyes glowing fiercely.

"Don't worry, chump," Kirlia-Y said confidently, "I'll take care of this. You just play support!"

Zekrom, still irritated, huffed. "Grr... Fine!" He reluctantly agreed, though clearly annoyed by the situation.

Kirlia-Y flew high into the air, enveloped in dark energy. Their wings shimmered with an eerie glow as they used Nasty Plot, scanning the battlefield for any signs of the elusive mutant. The visible mutants were clearly illusions, and Kirlia-Y knew they had to find the real one.

Zekrom fought against three different illusions of the mutant Espeon at once, but none of his attacks hit their target. Everything seemed like a blur of false images.

Then Kirlia-Y noticed something— a slight distortion in the light moving toward the distracted Zekrom. If it hadn't been moving, they wouldn't have spotted it.

"Got you!" Kirlia-Y said, excitement bubbling in their voice. Their wings and tail began to glow a deep, ominous red.

"Oblivion Wing!" With speed and precision, Kirlia-Y rocketed toward the hidden mutant. The mutant, realizing it had been found, revealed itself and lunged at Kirlia-Y.

But Kirlia-Y was faster, and with a swift motion, they caught the mutant in their grasp. The instant contact was made, the mutant's life force began to drain away, absorbed by Kirlia-Y. The creature dissolved into nothingness, its body turning into dust.

'Eilie, the god of death and destruction, huh?' Kirlia-Y thought, feeling Eilie's presence in their mind. Eilie, proud and satisfied, nodded quietly in agreement.

Kirlia's evolving!

————————————————————————

Upon reading that notification Ash's snapped towards Kirlia-Y who unfused, everyone watched as Kirlia was engulfed in the light of evolution.

As the radiant light enveloped Kirlia, her small, delicate form began to shift and grow. Her body elongated gracefully, the light shimmering with a silvery, ethereal glow that marked her as a shiny variant. Her limbs stretched and became more elegant, and her green hair flowed longer, now accentuated with a beautiful teal hue.

The red horn on her chest expanded and morphed into a regal, heart-shaped crest that glowed softly, surrounded by the flowing, white gown-like extension of her new form. Her face took on a more mature and serene expression, with her eyes gleaming a brilliant blue, standing out against her pale, otherworldly skin.

As the light began to fade, the newly evolved shiny Gardevoir stood tall and radiant, her gown-like appearance fluttering slightly as if caught in an invisible breeze. The teal accents in her hair and her soft silver-blue glow gave her a majestic, ethereal beauty, marking her evolution as something truly extraordinary.

"Gardevoir!" Ash said with a excited grin.

Ash's excitement was short-lived as Eilie swooped in, grabbing both him and Gardevoir into a tight, enthusiastic hug, her wings flapping in excitement as she flew around in circles.

Pikachu watched the scene unfold with mild amusement, feeling no envy. Neither did Zekrom, who simply observed with a content smile, though both of them winced slightly as Ash groaned from the force of the hug. It definitely looked more painful than celebratory.

"Ah, Mr. Pikachu," Zekrom's deep voice rumbled, and Pikachu turned to see the legendary dragon blushing, lightning faintly crackling around his form. "May we share a hug to celebrate the evolution of our teammate?"

Pikachu blinked, momentarily weirded out by the request but decided to play nice. He gave a brief nod, though internally made a note: if Zekrom pushed any boundaries, he wouldn't hesitate to react. The hug was brief and awkward, with Pikachu stiff in Zekrom's arms, but Zekrom's bashful expression made the moment somewhat endearing.

When they separated, Pikachu sighed in relief, standing to the side as they both waited for Eilie to calm down. They exchanged a glance but made no effort to rescue Ash or Gardevoir from the overly enthusiastic fusion. Neither Pikachu nor Zekrom felt the slightest bit of obligation to step in. Nope, not their problem at all.

Once Eilie calmed down, she released her tight grip, and Ash quickly unfurled his wings, catching Gardevoir mid-air. With a soft landing, he gently placed her back on her feet, both of them exhaling in relief.

"Thank you for that, Dad!" Gardevoir smiled brightly, her voice filled with gratitude.

Ash grinned, his eyes full of pride. "You look beautiful. How are you feeling?" he asked.

Gardevoir's blush deepened, but her smile grew even more radiant. "Thanks! And I feel really strong. I'm ready to fuck up all the bad guys now!" she declared with a fire in her voice.

"Language, young lady," Ash said with a stern look. "You might be taller than me now, but I'm still your father." His reprimand, though serious, made her bow her head in mock shame. She knew it wouldn't be the last time he'd scold her for something like this.

From the sidelines, Pikachu commented dryly, "Looks weird, doesn't it? A 10-year-old human scolding a full-grown Pokémon about language when we don't even speak the same language." Kyurem gave a nod of agreement.

Eilie flew closer, jumping in to defend her sister. "Father, you should give us full permission to swear."

Ash raised an eyebrow. "And why should I do that?" he asked, mildly amused.

"Because we do that anyway!" Eilie shot back with a smirk.

Ash sighed, knowing he was fighting a losing battle. "Alright, fine. It's not like you'd listen to me anyway. Do whatever you want," he grumbled, walking ahead without waiting for them to catch up.

"Well, that escalated quickly," Pikachu muttered.

Zekrom's concern grew. "Aren't you worried about Master? I've never seen him get angry or upset like that."

Ultimate Pikachu's red eyes darkened as he spoke, following Eilie and Gardevoir, who looked rather dejected. "I am. And I know why he's acting this way." His voice crackled with the same violent red electricity now surging through his body. "Yesterday at school, our partner Oddish was taken away. Just because he evolved." His energy flared, cracking the ground beneath his feet. "They said he was too powerful, that it was unfair for the others. We did what we could, but they didn't listen. They're giving us a new partner like it means nothing, ignoring all the memories we made with Oddish."

Zekrom remained silent, his heart aching for his master.

"That's why Ash is on edge. And to be honest, I am too." Pikachu's tone was sharper than usual, and his gaze was far away. "He hides his emotions well, but I can feel it. Sarena, Delia, and I... we always know how he's feeling." He then ran ahead to catch up, intent on comforting Eilie and Gardevoir.

Ash and his team entered the chamber of the third Elite Four member. Awaiting them were two terrifying figures: a mutant Blastoise and a grotesque Snorlax, each twisted by their horrifying transformation.

The mutant Blastoise loomed, its once polished shell now jagged and ancient, like it had been pulled from the depths of a forgotten tomb. Pulsing veins of deep blue and green ran through its cracked, armor-like skin, hinting at the destructive power within. Its massive cannon-like arms dripped with swirling, blackened water, and its glowing eyes exuded an eerie, unsettling calm.

Beside it stood the mutant Snorlax, an abomination of its former self. The creature's skin was stretched and pale, resembling a bloated corpse, with glowing cracks spread across its massive body. Its once plush fur had given way to patches of dark, leathery skin, and with every breath, it exhaled a chilling frost that caused the air to freeze around it. Its hollow, lifeless eyes stared blankly forward, as if drained of any emotion.

Ash's eyes narrowed as he locked onto the Snorlax, his icy blue gaze filled with cold rage. "Guys, take the Blastoise," he said, his voice calm yet commanding. "I want to go all out."

Without hesitation, Zekrom, Pikachu, Gardevoir and Eilie nodded, their focus shifting to the monstrous Blastoise. Ash remained fixed on the mutant Snorlax, his grip tightening as his aura flared to life around him, prepared to unleash everything against the grotesque beast that awaited him.

————————————————————————

Ash advanced toward the mutant Snorlax, each step deliberate and heavy with power. His wings retracted seamlessly into his back, leaving him in his human form, but that didn't diminish the immense pressure radiating from him. Strong gales swirled around him, growing more intense with every step he took. The ground beneath him cracked, leaving deep indentations where his shoes touched.

Fire blazed to life within the maelstrom, crackling fiercely alongside streaks of vibrant lightning. Brilliant blue water soon joined the chaos, sparkling with an otherworldly glow as it mixed with the other elements, forming a powerful bubble of energy around Ash. His aura was a storm of pure elemental might—earth, wind, fire, lightning, and water all coalesced into a symphony of destruction.

Each step brought him closer to the towering mutant Snorlax, but Ash's gaze never wavered. His eyes gleamed with raw determination, knowing that this was no ordinary battle. It was a test of his strength, and he intended to meet it head-on.

The mutant Snorlax lunged first, unleashing a nightmarish Blizzard. Its mouth stretched open, revealing a grotesque sight: only a few decayed, blackened teeth remained, and the rest of its maw was filled with writhing purple tendrils, pulsing with a sickly life of their own. The blackened snowstorm it released was a perversion of winter itself, churning with malevolent energy.

The corrupted frost closed in fast, yet just as it was about to touch Ash, it abruptly halted. The black snow twisted around him, caught within the elemental vortex he controlled. With a simple flick of his wrist, a stream of purifying water joined the swirling snow, cleansing the dark corruption from it. The once-tainted frost glistened, purified and transformed, now part of Ash's arsenal, adding to the chaotic symphony of elements he commanded.

The mutant Snorlax let out a frustrated roar, but Ash only smirked, the purified snow now part of his own impending storm.

Ash's brown eyes flickered back to their vibrant blue as he channeled all his fury into a single, devastating attack. He punched the air, and a grotesque arm of intertwined thorny vines erupted from the ground. It smashed into the mutant Blastoise, sending it sprawling with a bone-crunching blow that tore into its decaying flesh, oozing blackened blood as the vines ripped free.

Without missing a beat, Ash made a grabbing motion, summoning an enormous rocky arm from the earth. The impact was sickening as it punched the mutant away, puncturing its grotesque body and smearing its foul blood across the jagged rocks. The mutant let out a horrifying scream, echoing through the air, as it staggered back.

Next, a jagged, frosty arm materialized, sharp as glass, and slammed into the mutant with a violent crack. Ice shards exploded upon contact, freezing parts of the mutant in place while leaving deep, gaping wounds that bled a vile mixture of ice and putrid gore. Ash felt the chill in the air as the mutant shuddered, its body wracked with pain.

The ring of frost faded, and a dense, hurricane-like arm made of pure, swirling wind formed. It slammed into the mutant with unimaginable force, propelling it backward as it struggled to maintain balance. The winds sliced through its decaying skin, tearing it apart as the creature let out a gurgling howl of despair.

With unrelenting ferocity, Ash conjured an arm of chaotic flames, hotter than any normal fire and more devastating than any magical blaze. The inferno collided with the mutant, setting it ablaze in a frenzy of red and gold. The flames roared hungrily, incinerating everything in their path, and the air filled with the putrid smell of burning flesh. The mutant's agonized shrieks filled the air, a gruesome soundtrack to its demise.

Finally, the ring of water appeared, but instead of extinguishing the flames, Ash shaped an aquamarine arm that was infused with healing energy. This arm crashed into the mutant, purging it of the flames but only to prolong its suffering. As the searing heat dissipated, the mutant's wounds began to close, its flesh stitched back together even as the pain of the other elements lingered.

"Endless Elemental Ping Pong Ball!" Ash roared, a sadistic grin spreading across his face. He reveled in the monster's screams, imagining his teachers in its place, relishing each agonizing moment. The cycle of damage was relentless—burns, cuts, frostbite, and electric shocks—each time the mutant was healed, it was only to suffer again, the poison of Ash's fury sealing its fate in an unending torment.

"It looks fun! What do you call it?" Ultimate Pikachu asked, his playful grin shining as he jumped beside Ash.

"Oh, this? It's my masterpiece! I call it the Endless Elemental Ping Pong!" Ash replied, a bright grin spreading across his face, almost angelic. "I can only use it when I'm angry, and once it's unleashed, all my anger gets sucked away. Anyone who survives long enough to reach the purifying water is basically trapped in a cycle of endless pain. They can only escape if their minds break... or death, but that won't be coming!"

"That's amazing, isn't it?" Eilie chirped giddily, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm.

"Yep! Just imagine how much suffering it could cause!" Gardevoir added, her excitement palpable as she twirled around.

"Ugh... I don't know how I feel about that," Zekrom said, his uncertainty evident as he shifted uneasily.

"You should be happy for Daddy! He's so amazing! He even knows how to make someone suffer without actually killing them—something we can't do!" Gardevoir declared, and Eilie nodded in agreement. She was literally death incarnated; if she didn't hold back, anyone she faced would meet an instant end.

Ash chuckled and shook his head, amusement dancing in his eyes. "Girls, calm down! Not everyone enjoys death and misery like we do. Zekrom will just have to get used to it, like us."

Zekrom stared at Ash, torn between admiration and unease, but deep down, he knew he would obey every command from his master without hesitation.

"Anyways, I wanted to say something," Ash said, looking deeply into his daughters' eyes. He removed his hat and lowered his head. "I apologize for getting mad at you guys. You reminded me of some people who didn't listen to me. I really don't mind you swearing; I was just angry at someone else, and I almost took it out on you, which was wrong of me. Please forgive me!"

Gardevoir and Eilie wrapped their arms and wings around Ash, respectively. "We don't blame you! It was those fucking teachers at that shitty academy!" Gardevoir exclaimed, her voice filled with indignation.

"Yep! We would never blame you!" Eilie agreed, her voice soothing as she held him tight.

Beside them, Zekrom and Ultimate Pikachu exchanged glances, Ultimate Pikachu wiping away a tear. "This is so sweet and wholesome!" he said, completely ignoring the fact that just behind them, a monster was screaming in agony.

"Sir Pikachu, may we?" Zekrom asked hopefully, spreading his arms for a hug.

Pikachu felt a bit weirded out but obliged, his heart warmed by the moment. After all, he was in a good mood today.

The next room opened up to reveal Lance's domain, where a mutant Pikachu and Charizard awaited them, exuding an aura of menace.

The mutant Pikachu towered over the average species, its golden fur crackling with an ethereal, unsettling light. Deep violet eyes glowed ominously, while streaks of lightning arced in jagged patterns across its body. Its tail resembled a massive, luminous lightning rod, curling menacingly behind it, and its claws were sharp and dark, like polished obsidian.

Opposite it stood a colossal Charizard, its once majestic wings now torn and blackened, as if the very air around it scorched with each flap. Its scales shimmered in dark hues of crimson and obsidian, and its eyes burned with a gold-red inferno. Blackened flames curled from its mouth and along its tail, a shifting, dark fire that seemed alive.

"Nice! My future biological son had a Pikachu too. Too bad it's dead now!" Ash remarked, a smirk playing on his lips before pausing thoughtfully. "Do you think it's future you's kid?"

"That sounds so wrong!" Pikachu replied, his fur bristling at the thought. "But kid or not, we have to kill it!"

"How about we do this like the old times?" Ash suggested, and Pikachu nodded, determination surging between them.

"All right then, Ultimate Pikachu! Let's combine our strength by becoming one! Merge with me!"

Ultimate Pikachu transformed into an orange light, a dazzling flash that was swiftly absorbed into Ash's body. In an instant, his Nephilim features emerged in full force. Some of his feathers shifted to pure electricity, sparking with energy. A long, coiled wire-like tail sprouted, ending in a vivid orange lightning bolt. Strips of black fur laced his forearms, crackling with electricity, while black circles formed on his cheeks, each containing a striking red lightning bolt at the center. One of his blue eyes darkened, becoming a slitted gaze, while orange furry ears replaced his original ones, completing the transformation.

"We are Ultimate Ash-Pikachu!" they declared, a powerful resonance echoing through the chamber, the air buzzing with their newfound energy.

As they stood ready to face their foes, the atmosphere thickened with tension. The mutant Pikachu snarled, arcs of electricity dancing around its form, while Charizard unleashed a torrent of dark flames, both ready to unleash chaos upon their challengers.

With a nod, Ultimate Ash-Pikachu launched forward, the promise of an epic battle looming ahead.

And then, the mutant Charizard picked up the mutant Pikachu and hurled it at Ultimate Ash-Pikachu like a bullet.

————————————————————————

Secondary Title: Master Chef is inactive!

Title: Master of Hands has taken its place!

————————————————————————

The mutant Pikachu spun into a bullet of black lightning, crackling with malevolent energy. Ultimate Ash-Pikachu, noticing the dark charge, quickly formed a tangible layer of negative energy over his hands, anticipating the attack.

As the mutant Pikachu closed in, the opposing negative energies repelled each other with even more force. With a smirk, they remarked, "Negative energy repels negative energy."

The mutant Pikachu ricocheted back, crashing hard into the mutant Charizard. In response, Charizard released an inferno of searing black flames, burning but also unintentionally slowing its partner. The impact of the smaller mutant smacking into Charizard echoed with a bone-cracking smack.

With a smirk, Ultimate Ash-Pikachu summoned their trusty tactical blade, now forged from a clear, glass-like material designed to channel his elemental powers. In a spectacular display, the blade shifted hues, morphing into a double-sided purple energy saber—reminiscent of the weapons from those manga he used to read.

Embracing the trope, both mutants launched a barrage of smaller, yet deadly projectiles, their attacks slamming forward in waves of blackened lightning and dark flames. They seemed feral, their tactics primal, just enough to keep Ultimate Ash-Pikachu on his toes but not enough to outsmart him. Sensing this weakness, they leaned into it, provoking the two mutants further, feeding off their rising fury.

After all, nothing made an opponent easier to crush than one blinded by rage—especially when there were two of them.

"Is that all you've got?" Ultimate Ash-Pikachu taunted with a mocking grin. "Did that psycho Mewtwo really leave you with nothing better than this?" They absorbed the mutant Pikachu's black lightning through their shared Volt Absorb ability, while skillfully deflecting the searing dark flames using a mix of their tail, blade, and electric counterattacks.

Mutant Charizard, enraged by the insult, intensified its assault. Flames burned hotter, and now, sharp, tainted blades of wind sliced through the air, propelled by its ragged, skeletal wings. Each strike grew more relentless, aiming to break through.

Meanwhile, the mutant Pikachu darted behind Ultimate Ash-Pikachu, launching its own barrage. Anticipating this, they extended the energy blade in both hands, spinning it into a buzzing shield that deflected and shattered the incoming attacks like a barrier of pure, crackling force.

"Hah! Is this the extent of your power? Pathetic!" Ultimate Ash-Pikachu sneered, pure disdain etched across their face. "We'll show you what real strength is!" Their wings buzzed, charged with orange lightning, and their tail slammed into the ground.

"Forest's Bind! Electric Terrain!" they called out in unison. Poisonous, thorned vines erupted from the ground, lashing around the mutants to entangle them. A wave of electricity surged from Ultimate Ash-Pikachu's tail, forming a shimmering, semi-transparent dome over the battlefield. The air inside held a sharp scent of ozone, with electric currents crackling everywhere, energizing them while trapping their foes.

The mutants thrashed, struggling to break free, but Ultimate Ash-Pikachu only watched, taking flight with an air of superiority.

Just as they ascended, both mutants managed to tear through the bindings. The mutant Pikachu leapt to its partner, and the mutant Charizard wrapped its claws around it, igniting the smaller mutant until it burned like a blazing comet.

Ultimate Ash-Pikachu grimaced at the shrill shrieks of the flaming mutant Pikachu as Charizard hurled it like a blazing projectile. "Know your place, filth!" they shouted, encasing their hand in a heavy stone gauntlet. They met the blazing mutant mid-air, delivering a crushing punch that sent it plummeting back down toward its partner. They could feel the heat searing through the gauntlet, scorching their hand, but the mutants fared far worse.

Mutant Pikachu lay sprawled, face smashed in and covered in brutal second and third-degree burns. Mutant Charizard's arm hung loosely at its side, dislocated and twisted where Pikachu's impact had struck.

Ultimate Ash-Pikachu let their stone gauntlet crumble away, ready for more as their blade retracted back into their inventory.

A red helo appeared over their head, an aura of a mix of holy energy and demonic energy surrounded them, they aimed their hand at the two mutants, "Heavenly inferno!" A large blast of pink flames engulfed the two mutants, the corrupted mutant cannot even stand a chance against the combined flames of divine and dark energies, not even their ashes were remained, as that also had the corruption of mutation.

"Nice!" Ultimate Ash-Pikachu grinned. Slowly, they shifted; one eye turned brown, their large orange ears with black tips faded to yellow, and the fierce black-striped forearm markings softened. Their deadly, wiry tail transformed back into Pikachu's classic thunderbolt shape. In a final flash of energy, Ultimate Ash-Pikachu split into Ash and Pikachu, the latter reforming on Ash's shoulder. Ash returned to his human form, folding his wings and touching down.

"So, how was that?" Ash asked, now fully disguised as a human again.

"That was amazing, Dad!" Eilie cheered. "Spectacular as always, Master!" Zekrom added. "You were absolutely badass out there!" Gardevoir chimed in, a grin spreading across her face.

Ash chuckled, shaking his head at their enthusiasm. "Alright then. The champion's room is next, and who knows if we'll get a breather once we're in there. Let's rest up for a bit and get ready to raise hell for whatever monstrosity awaits us on the other side!"

The team nodded, each of them catching their breath and recharging for the semi final battle ahead.

"Hey, Gardevoir, can you heal me?" Ash asked, holding out his scorched knuckles, the skin red and tender from the burns.

"Oh no, Daddy! Why didn't you tell me sooner?" Gardevoir gasped, gently taking his hand and channeling Life Dew over the blistered skin, a cool wave of energy soothing the burn.

Ash sighed in relief. "That feels way better, thank you. Looks like your healing's gotten even more effective. I'm really proud of you!" He flashed a bright smile, reaching over to ruffle her hair with his other hand.

"Thanks, Dad! I'll always do my best for you!" Gardevoir beamed, matching his smile.

Ash chuckled. "But tell me, why do you and Eilie keep switching between calling me Father, Dad, and Daddy?"

Before Gardevoir could answer, Pikachu cut in with a mischievous smirk. "Ah, you noticed?"

"Huh?"

"Alright, imagine I'm a bald mad scientist with an evil plan, alright?" Pikachu said with exaggerated glee, motioning for the rest to play along, gathering behind Ash dramatically.

"So, when these two were born, they were so innocent, so sweet. That's when I began… corrupting them!"

Gardevoir scoffed, hugging Ash protectively. "Now that I'm grown up, I've realized what a bad influence you are, Uncle! We'll protect Dad from you!" She pulled Ash close as Eilie cheered.

Undeterred, Pikachu continued, "Anyway, it was worth it. My proudest moment was hearing Ralts here let loose a swear word! Pure magic! And as for calling you Father, Dad, and Daddy? That's just to mess with you and keep you guessing. Took me six whole months to perfect that plan!"

Ash rolled his eyes with a chuckle. "Alright, nice one, Pikachu. Now, let's get going."

And as expected, Pikachu hopped onto Ash's shoulder with his usual grin, as if nothing unusual had happened at all.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

Ash let Ruthless Compassion drain his emotions, his gaze hardening to ice as he cast aside his human disguise, his Nephilim features emerging with a quiet, intimidating power.

As the chamber's lights blazed to life, they revealed a mutant towering before him—a hulking, nightmarish blend of Pikachu, Gengar, Charizard, and more. Its massive, hunched form was a twisted patchwork of fur and scales, dead gray skin fractured with ghostly cracks leaking a faint, sickly smoke. The face was an eerie meld of Pikachu and Gengar: hollow, grinning, with jagged teeth, a single broken ear, and cold, electric-blue eyes shadowed beneath a Charizard horn. Charizard-like wings stretched out from its back, skeletal and dripping with thick, black mist that seemed to seep from deep within.

Its arms were long, muscular, almost like Dragonite's but ending in clawed talons that shimmered with spectral energy. A Dracovish-like tail, marred with rough, broken scales, lashed the ground, its tip burning cold with a blue-green flame that exuded only malice.

Ash narrowed his gaze, taking in every detail of this monstrosity, a perversion of the very Pokémon his future self has cherished—a creature sculpted of fear, brimming with corrupted power, and staring back at him with a gaze as hollow and unfeeling as his own in that moment.

The silence stretched, both challenger and champion poised, each waiting for the other to strike. Ash flexed his fingers, his expression unreadable as he prepared himself for the battle ahead, his body and mind razor-sharp. He knew this fight would be unlike any he had faced before, and as the mutant's cold flame flickered in the darkness, he steeled himself for the brutal clash to come.

————————————————————————

Mutant

Lvl:- 80

Info:- This monstrosity was the first ever mutant made by Mutant Shadow Mewtwo, this is a mixture of Ash's Pikachu, Charizard Drogonite, Gengar, Dracowish, and Snorlax, this creature is considerably weaker then what it could've been, it has the types, Electric, Fire, Flying, Ghost, Poison, Normal, Dragon, and Water.

————————————————————————

"So, to really damage it, we'll need Rock,

Ground, Dark, and Dragon-type moves," Ash said, glancing back at his team. They nodded in silent understanding.

The mutant let out a bone-chilling roar, and from its own shadow, countless dark creatures crawled forth. With a sweep of its claws, a torrent of corrupted elements—water, fire, and lightning—cascaded down on Ash and his Pokémon.

"Pikachu, Gardevoir, Eilie—take the minions! Zekrom, with me!" Ash commanded, taking to the air. A half-halo of divine energy glowed above him, and his armor flared with protective light. Zekrom floated beside him, charging up a Dragon Pulse, while hundreds of spectral tentacles sprouted from Ash's armor, lashing down at the shadow creatures below.

Pikachu darted into the thick of the shadowy horde, unleashing rapid bursts of lightning, disintegrating shadows by the hundreds. But for every shadow defeated, five more surged forward.

Gardevoir and Eilie stood back-to-back, unleashing psychic blasts, dark pulses, and razor-sharp wind blades that cut down waves of the shadows, only for more to take their place.

Ash poured mana into his attacks, unleashing torrents of pure water and chaos-infused flames, alongside shells and energy missiles that blasted toward the mutant without pause. Behind the beast, two massive stone hands erupted from the ground. One hand managed to seize a wing, wrenching it with a shuddering crack, while the other faltered, struck down by a tail cloaked in corrupted water. But the first hand succeeded in tearing the wing completely free.

The mutant let out a pained, feral shriek that caused the shadowy horde to retreat momentarily. Shadows began crawling up its body, coalescing around it as though forming an armor—a telltale sign it was about to undergo a transformation.

Ash's eyes narrowed. He wasn't about to let this creature power up before his eyes. While Zekrom continued to pelt it with relentless Dragon Pulses, Ash descended swiftly. Landing firmly, he placed his hands on the ground, channeling raw power as he tore open a massive fissure beneath the mutant's feet. Without hesitation, he closed it, crushing the mutant beneath layers of rock and earth, pressing it deeper into the ground.

The chamber fell silent, save for the distant rumble of settling stone.

"Nice, that was easy but I feel our power ups aren't enough, it's better to be over prepared then being under prepared." Ash said as he dusted his hands. "Guys, whose ready for new powers!" Ash asked and all the pokemon present cheered.

"Pikachu, you're already the strongest among my Pokémon, but you'll need more than just your Electric type and Static ability!" Ash declared, summoning two orbs into his hands. One was a vibrant orange, swirling with flames, while the other pulsed with a dark, ominous miasma.

With eager determination, Pikachu pressed the fire-type orb against his body. Instantly, his eyes transformed into a blazing orange, and the brown stripes on his back turned black, igniting into flames.

————————————————————————

Pikachu gained the additional type: Fire!

Upon the use of another type crystal, this type will be replaced. This is permanent until a type absorption crystal is used! The use of a high-grade type crystal can stack the types!

————————————————————————

"So, how are you feeling?" Ash asked, his excitement palpable.

Pikachu examined the flames dancing along his back, a wide grin spreading across his face. "I feel hot—very hot! But I'm not bothered by it; I feel freaking awesome!" he exclaimed, throwing a fist pump that inadvertently launched a fireball high into the air.

"Good! Now it's time for your new ability!" Ash said, handing Pikachu the dark crystal. Pikachu accepted it eagerly, his energy palpable as he embraced the transformation.

As he activated the crystal, a dark aura enveloped him, and his shadow began to twist and morph. It grew darker and more substantial, shadowy tendrils extending from it, lashing out as if they had a life of their own.

————————————————————————

Pikachu gained the additional Ability: Specter's Grasp!

Upon the use of another ability crystal, this ability will be replaced. This is permanent until an ability absorption crystal is used! The use of a high-grade ability crystal can stack the abilities!

————————————————————————

Pikachu stood taller, empowered by his new types and abilities. The air around him crackled with energy, a fusion of fire and darkness that radiated both strength and menace. "Let's show that mutant what we've got!" he shouted, his determination unwavering.

"Pikachu, get familiar with your new power! Zekrom, come here!" Ash called, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Zekrom stepped forward, eager to embrace his own power-up. He understood that one day he would reunite with his original form and follow Ash faithfully, but until then, he was determined to become as powerful as possible.

Ash held up the Blazing Thunder ability orb along with a Fire-type crystal. Zekrom accepted the orbs, and the transformation began. A warm glow enveloped him, radiating with energy as his body started to change.

The insides of his tail turned a vibrant orange, with blue thunder crackling and dancing within it. On his chest, a triangle formed, its edges outlined by a mesmerizing flame that burned with intensity, surrounded by an electric blue vortex of thunder. The combination of fire and electricity ignited an aura of sheer power around him.

————————————————————————

Zekrom gained the additional Ability: Blazing Thunder!

Upon the use of another ability crystal, this ability will be replaced. This is permanent until an ability absorption crystal is used! The use of a high-grade ability crystal can stack the abilities!

Zekrom gained the additional Type: Fire

Upon the use of another type crystal, this type will be replaced. This is permanent until an type absorption crystal is used! The use of a high-grade type crystal can stack the types!

————————————————————————

Zekrom flexed his wings, feeling the surge of new power coursing through him. "I can feel it! This power... it's incredible!" he exclaimed, the flames and lightning swirling around him in a brilliant display.

Ash gestured for Gardevoir and Eilie to approach, holding out their respective orbs with a steady hand.

He presented Eilie with the Aquatic Dragon S-Tier Ability Orb and Gardevoir with the Shadow Legion SSS-Tier Ability Orb. Alongside these, he handed each an Electric-type orb, knowing they'd be essential for the battles ahead.

As they accepted the orbs, the transformations began almost instantly. Gardevoir's appearance shifted dramatically. Two small, glowing spheres emerged on either side of her face, resembling eerie, radiant earrings. Her flowing gown took on a new hue—a constantly shifting gray that oscillated from nearly black to an almost ghostly white, an embodiment of the shadows she now commanded.

Meanwhile, Eilie's transformation required her to revert to her massive form, accommodating the immense energy flowing through her. At the center of her chest, where the lines of her form converged, a swirling blue orb manifested, alive with sparks of red lightning. Electric-blue and golden veins appeared across her body, each pulse surging with the combined energies of water and electricity, highlighting her as an imposing and formidable force.

————————————————————————

Eilie gained the Aquatic Dragon ability!

Permanent until an ability absorption crystal is used or another ability crystal replaces it. High-grade ability crystals can stack abilities.

Gardevoir gained the Shadow Legion ability!

Permanent until an ability absorption crystal is used or another ability crystal replaces it. High-grade ability crystals can stack abilities.

————————————————————————

Their transformations complete, Gardevoir and Eilie radiated a newfound strength, their energies complementing each other. Ash smiled, satisfied with his Pokémon's evolving might.

"Now," he said, his voice filled with determination, "let's show that mutant exactly what we're made of!"

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

As Ash and his team entered the Hall of Fame, they were met with a horrific sight. The enormous hall was lined with towering glass tubes, each filled with a glowing, green liquid. Inside the tubes, skeletal figures floated in eerie silence, illuminated only by the faint light around them. But what made Ash's heart pound wasn't the skeletons themselves, but the names written above each one.

His eyes were immediately drawn to the skeleton in the center, bearing his own name, "Ash Ketchum – the first obstacle!" Beside his own glass tube was another skeleton labeled with a name that twisted his insides: "Red Ketchum – just a nuisance!" Seeing Red's name there—a son Ash had yet to meet in his timeline—was more than just disturbing. It was insulting, a twisted mockery of all his future son had achieved, and of the bond they shared, even across time.

On the other side of his own tube was another skeleton, equally heartbreaking, labeled "Serena Ketchum – she was weak!" Ash's fists clenched tighter, his nails digging into his palms. His own death or insults were one thing, but to see his future family reduced to nothing more than twisted titles set an icy fire in his veins. Taking a deep breath, Ash steadied himself, letting Ruthless Compassion chill his emotions, turning his eyes into sharp, calculating shards of ice.

A mocking voice echoed through the hall, breaking the silence as a dark void opened in the brightly lit space. Three figures emerged from it, and the void snapped shut behind them, leaving only their menacing forms standing against the green-lit horror.

Ash examined them carefully, understanding that each one was a corrupted version of a familiar Pokémon, twisted beyond recognition.

————————————————————————

Mutant Shadow Mewtwo X (Mini-Boss)

Level: 80

Info: The original Mewtwo created by Team Rocket. Once a friend and ally to Ash, it had fought bravely beside him in his final battle against the mutant threat, only to lose and suffer a terrible fate. Its memories were erased, and its mind corrupted.

————————————————————————

Mewtwo X stood tall and monstrous, a hulking mass of corrupted energy and malformed strength. Its muscular body was warped, veins of shadowy energy crisscrossing its cracked, grayish skin. Its once sleek head crest was now jagged, split open, and glowing with a molten red light, as if rage itself fueled its mind. Hollow, black eyes seemed to suck in the light around it, casting a shadowy aura over its face. Broken chains encircled its wrists and ankles, remnants of its confinement, now twisted into symbols of its fury and enslavement. Each exhaled breath sounded like a low growl, resonating with the rage that had twisted it.

————————————————————————

Mutant Shadow Mewtwo Y (Mini-Boss)

Level: 80

Info: A rogue Mewtwo, the result of one of Team Rocket's brutal experiments, it was eventually captured by Red Ketchum. But, like its predecessor, its memories were wiped, and it was ultimately corrupted.

————————————————————————

Floating ominously above the ground, Mewtwo Y had transformed into a frail, almost skeletal figure, enveloped in a haunting, ghostly aura. Its eyes, a sickly neon green, cast an eerie glow across its thin, sunken face. Black tendrils of shadow extended from its back like twisted wings, occasionally taking the form of claws or hands that seemed to grasp at unseen enemies. Its entire form flickered between shadow and reality, as though it existed in both realms. The psychic energy it emitted was intense, like a smoldering ember that hinted at an inferno of volatile power beneath its thin frame.

————————————————————————

Mutant Shadow Mewtwo Z (Boss)

Level: 100

Info: Created as a Shadow Pokémon and later corrupted by Team Rainbow Rocket, this Mewtwo went on to become a force of unstoppable destruction. Already stronger than most legendaries, its innate power and corruption have made it a god-like entity, a menace that even Ash and his Pokémon would have to face with everything they had.

————————————————————————

Towering over the others, Mewtwo Z was an embodiment of corrupted power. Its sleek, armor-like body shimmered between a dark, venomous purple and pitch black, with an eerie green glow lining each scale. Embedded in its chest was a crystalline growth, a dark flame flickering within, emitting wisps of shadowy smoke. Its eyes glowed red with a twisted, malevolent intelligence, while dark electricity crackled over its body, creating a stormy aura around it.

The head crest had morphed into something dragon-like, a tribute to the original DNA that had formed it, now warped and fearsome. Its claws, elongated and sharp, dripped with toxic shadow energy, while a long, serpentine tail lined with serrated barbs lashed the air behind it, ending in a sphere of condensed darkness. Its entire form seemed to tear at reality itself, blurring the line between the physical and the spectral.

Ash and his Pokémon faced off, knowing this battle would demand all they had. But his determination only sharpened as he looked at Red's skeleton and Serena's beside it. These creatures were abominations, created not only to be obstacles but to desecrate the very people Ash held closest to his heart.

Ash's voice was firm as he stared down Mutant Shadow Mewtwo Z, wings unfurled, armor gleaming. "We end this here. No one messes with my family and gets away with it."

His Pokémon stood by, each one braced with a fierce resolve—until the mocking, twisted voice of Mewtwo Z broke through the air.

"Are you the result of Red Ketchum eloping with a Pokémon?" Mewtwo Z sneered, an amused glint in its dark eyes.

"Huh? What's eloping—is that some kind of new move?" Ash asked, his confusion genuine despite the cold detachment from Ruthless Compassion.

Pikachu let out a groan, face-palming. "Ash, bro, please don't embarrass yourself."

Mewtwo Z chuckled, its tone mocking. "Ah, another Pikachu. You Ketchums always did have a strange attachment to those rats and hats. Fitting, I think, to add another Ketchum to my collection—especially here, in this hallowed hall."

Ash narrowed his eyes. "Enough of your yapping. Eilie, Gardevoir—fuse! Zekrom, Pikachu—fuse! The minions are yours to handle; the boss is mine."

Ash's armor gleamed as he took flight, wings flaring, his presence like a warrior angel descending into battle. Eilie and Gardevoir began to merge, their bodies swirling as their energies melded. The new form emerged with Gardevoir's elegance and Eilie's primal power—curved, front-facing horns like Eilie's crowned her head, one eye glowed teal, and an orb swirling with water and lightning pulsed in the center of her chest. Clawed wings and a tail extended from her shoulders and back, adding an intimidating aura. She joined Ash in the air, prepared for battle.

On the ground, Zekrom and Pikachu began their fusion, bodies entwining until they stood as one. Zekrom's sturdy form became the base, with one eye turning fiery orange, red circles like Pikachu's cheeks glowing on either side of his face, each with a smaller blue circle in the center. Blue sparks danced around his massive frame, channeling Pikachu's electric intensity. Ash grinned as he took in the sight of his newly fused allies.

"Zekrom-P," he named the fusion.

Gardevoir-Y flew in to engage Mutant Shadow Mewtwo-Y, their wings glowing dark red as they prepared Oblivion Wing, intending to end this as quickly as possible. They went with the physical version of the move, breaking the sound barrier as they shot forward, only to find their attack passing straight through the mutant. The energy around it was unmistakable—void energy, tied to the powers of souls, spirits, and death.

"That's new," Gardevoir-Y muttered, their voice dark and unyielding, "but we are DEATH; NOTHING is above us." They summoned a ball of dark, ghost-type energy, spun around mid-air, and attempted to slam it into the mutant's skull. But the mutant reacted, throwing up a Protect barrier, which confirmed their suspicions.

This thing lacked any real intelligence and was immune to physical harm, mindlessly attacking once provoked. Gardevoir-Y barely dodged as the mutant retaliated, unleashing a hail of shadow bullets. Swift and agile in the skies, Gardevoir-Y countered with Dazzling Gleam, the brilliant fairy light shattering the bullets. But the mutant remained unaffected.

It retaliated with a powerful Thunderbolt, but Gardevoir-Y neutralized it instantly with their own thunder. A shadowy portal opened behind them, and without hesitation, Gardevoir-Y slipped through, disappearing from the physical plane and entering the Shadow Realm.

The Shadow Realm was dense with spirits and restless souls, a place of vengeful energy and spectral beings. Before the mutant could cross over, Gardevoir-Y activated Shadow Legion, binding every soul, ghost, and spirit in the realm to themselves. They could feel the sheer presence of each one—millions, even billions, all hungering for vengeance.

In this realm, Gardevoir-Y knew this mutant could finally be harmed, though the stakes were high—any misstep, and they could be torn apart as well. But here, their legion was not outnumbered; this was their domain. As the mutant emerged into the Shadow Realm, Gardevoir-Y's army attacked. Spirits of humans, Pokémon, even legendaries surged forward, surrounding the mutant and tearing into it, piece by piece, with a vengeance honed over ages.

The mutant writhed under the assault, powerless against the relentless fury of countless souls. Gardevoir-Y watched, a faint, cold smile on their face as they witnessed the agony of the creature that dared to challenge them here. It was finally over—the Shadow Legion was victorious, and the satisfaction of their triumph was absolute.

Zekrom-P soared towards Mutant Shadow Mewtwo-X, crackling with intense electrical energy. The sheer power radiating from him charged the air, filling it with the sharp tang of ozone. Zekrom-P's gaze was locked on his opponent, his aura fierce and unwavering.

The mutant struck first, surging forward with Close Combat, its form sprouting additional arms of twisted, corrupted energy to fuel the onslaught. Zekrom-P quickly responded, layering himself in defenses—Reflect, Light Screen, Calm Mind, and Nasty Plot stacking within him like layers of steel and fire, fortifying his resolve.

As the mutant closed in, Zekrom-P unleashed a massive bolt of orange thunder, the crackling arc cutting through the air with blinding speed. The mutant took the hit head-on, unfazed but clearly not unscathed, its form flickering as dark energy crackled over it in response.

Their clash was far from over, and Zekrom-P's intense gaze remained locked on his opponent.

The mutant Mewtwo-X twitched, and the chains bound to its wrists and ankles came alive, snaking forward like dark, sentient tendrils aimed straight for Zekrom-P. In response, Zekrom-P wrapped his arms in such concentrated lightning it almost took a physical form, crackling with raw energy. He seized the chains mid-air, his grip unyielding, and pulled the mutant towards him with incredible force. As the mutant closed the distance, Zekrom-P lunged forward, coating his head in a fierce, burning aura of lightning, and slammed his forehead into the mutant with a powerful headbutt.

The mutant staggered for a brief moment but quickly retaliated, conjuring a Dragon Pulse in its hands and blasting it point-blank into Zekrom-P's face. The intense, swirling energy erupted on impact, momentarily obscuring Zekrom-P in a shroud of explosive force. But through the haze, Zekrom-P's form remained steady, his eyes blazing as he braced himself to counter the mutant's next move.

"So, you fancy yourself a dragon?" Zekrom-P roared, the primal energy within them surging. "Then witness what a true dragon can unleash!" They unleashed an enormous pulse of draconic energy, the air crackling and distorting as it barreled toward the mutant.

The impact struck hard, and for the first time, the mutant let out a cry of pain. Taking advantage of the moment, Zekrom-P activated Charge, ramping their electricity to an unprecedented level, electric currents surging over their form like a thunderstorm contained.

But as the primal energy dissipated, the mutant began to recover, shrouding itself in a veil of corrupted psychic energy. It raised an arm, then slashed horizontally, sending a barrage of psychic blades hurtling toward Zekrom-P, each one slicing through the air in relentless pursuit.

"Enough of this farce! Let's end this!" Zekrom-P roared, their voice crackling with fury. In a surge of raw power, they cloaked themselves in an orb of blinding, surging thunder, a concentrated tempest that held the force of a thousand storms.

"Bolt Strike!" they bellowed, streaking forward in a flash of pure energy. In a split second, they crashed into the mutant with a deafening impact, the entire battlefield shuddering under the force. For a heartbeat, everything was silent, the air charged and heavy.

Then, the sound returned, an explosive shockwave rolling out as the mutant was sent hurtling back, its form crackling with residual lightning.

Zekrom-P didn't relent, pressing their advantage. They unleashed a rapid succession of fire-laden electric blasts, each one crackling with intense, destructive energy as it streaked toward the mutant. Explosions echoed through the battlefield, one after another, the blasts carving through the air and sending shockwaves through the arena.

When the dust settled, only a smoldering, white-hot crater remained where the mutant had been, the ground singed and crackling with lingering arcs of electricity. Zekrom-P hovered above, their gaze fixed on the crater, ready to strike again if needed.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

Ash flew towards the main boss, determination fueling his every move while his Pokémon engaged the minions around them. He threw a punch at the mutant, but it was swiftly blocked, the creature's grotesque strength sending a shiver up his arm. In retaliation, the mutant lashed out with its deadly tail, aiming straight for Ash's face. He pushed off with all his might, narrowly dodging the extending appendage as he flew back to safety.

But there was one thing Ash hadn't accounted for—the mutant could attack with its tail as well. Without warning, a spear of shadow was shot at him, and he barely managed to dodge it, feeling the rush of air as it grazed the sides of his chest. The shadowy spear tore through his armor like it was nothing, leaving a shallow cut that burned with dark energy.

"Huh, the first blood is mine it seems! If only I could see your face!" the mutant taunted, its voice dripping with mockery.

Ash, void of all emotions, didn't react outwardly. Beneath his helmet, however, he wore a bright smile that was as fake as a politician's promises. Anyone who truly knew him would recognize the facade; the calm demeanor cloaked a storm of fury brewing within.

The half halo above Ash's head transformed into a complete circle, glowing pink as the pure divine energy fused with chaotic demonic energy. While the cut on his chest remained, the pain from the corrupting energy vanished, replaced by a sense of clarity and strength.

With renewed determination, Ash charged at the mutant. Every part of his armor moved seamlessly, responding like an extension of his own body. He punched, kicked, and unleashed a flurry of attacks, using his enhanced testicles to stab at the mutant. The creature mimicked every move, its tail countering Ash's thrusts while it attacked him with its fists, both combatants locked in a brutal brawl.

As the fight raged on, Ash suddenly found himself distracted by a system window that popped up in his vision.

The mutant seized the opportunity presented by Ash's brief distraction and delivered a powerful punch straight to his face. Ash's helmet shattered on impact, and he felt his nose break along with a few teeth. He didn't have the time to register the pain as the mutant lashed out with its serrated tail, slicing a deep wound across his chest. The force of the blow sent him hurtling down to the ground, pain surging through him as he crashed into the earth below.

The floor of the Hall of Fame crumbled under the force of Ash's impact, creating a massive crater that sent a cloud of dust swirling into the air. As the dust settled, a small figure emerged from the chaos—Ash, standing defiantly at the center of the storm. The dust cloud intensified, morphing into a swirling tempest around him.

From the eye of the storm, five elemental golems made of pure wind materialized, their forms shifting and billowing with the gusts of air. Each golem radiated an aura of raw elemental power, ready to unleash chaos upon the mutant.

With a fierce roar, the golems charged at the Mutant Shadow Mewtwo, their bodies intertwining in a mesmerizing dance of wind as they launched a barrage of attacks. The howling winds echoed through the hall as the elemental guardians closed in on their target, each one striking with precision and force, determined to take down the corrupted creature that threatened Ash and his loved ones.

"Guys!" Ash attempted to establish a mental link with his Pokémon, desperation lacing his thoughts.

"Can you hear me?" he sent out, feeling the weight of his injuries pressing down on him as his vision blurred.

"Yeah, Bro, what's up?" Pikachu's familiar voice resonated in his mind.

"Father!" Eilie's worried voice chimed in, a wave of concern washing over Ash.

"I need help. I'm injured... need healing!" Ash thought urgently, feeling the darkness creeping at the edges of his vision as his wound bled profusely.

Just as panic began to set in, a shadowy portal materialized in front of him, and Gardevoir-Y emerged, her expression fraught with worry. Without hesitation, she poured her power into a blob of Life Dew, and Ash instinctively infused it with his own divine energy to amplify the healing effect. She splashed the glowing substance onto his wound, watching in relief as it rapidly closed up.

Although Ash had the ability to heal others with his Water of Purification, his Nephilim nature prevented him from healing himself. But with Gardevoir-Y's assistance, he felt strength returning.

As soon as the healing was done, Gardevoir-Y enveloped him in a tight, crushing embrace, her hands and wings squeezing him fiercely as she sniffling softly.

"It's fine. You saved me! I'm okay now!" Ash reassured her, wrapping his arms around her gently, feeling the warmth of their bond.

He could sense the tremors of battle around them, knowing Zekrom-P was now locked in a deadly battle with the boss.

"Come on, as you would say, let's fuck the shit out of him!" Ash exclaimed, trying to inject some humor into the tense situation.

Gardevoir-Y pulled back slightly, her tears wiped away, and a determined smile spread across her face. "Yeah, let's do that!" she agreed, her resolve reignited as they prepared to join the fray once more.

Although Ash's wound had healed completely, a horizontal, jagged scar remained across his chest, a stark reminder of the brutal battle. He took a moment to collect himself, filling his palm with water from the Purification ability. Splashing it onto his face, he felt the remnants of blood and fatigue wash away, as if they had never been there at all. The refreshing sensation invigorated him, reigniting the fire within as he turned his gaze back to the battlefield.

With renewed determination, Ash stood tall, storing his damaged armor in his inventory and pulling out a special item—a stone carved in the shape of Pikachu's tail. It was his trump card. He glanced at Zekrom-P through their mental link.

'Pikachu, can you still use this in the form of Zekrom-P?' Ash asked, sharing a mental image of the stone he was holding.

He felt a surge of confident affirmation in response.

"Gotcha!" Ash grinned, his wild, confident smile back in full force.

"Gardevoir-Y, keep it busy. I've got a plan!" he called.

"Sure thing, Dad!" Gardevoir-Y replied, their voice full of determination as they dove back toward the mutant to engage it once more, giving Zekrom-P the opening to retreat toward Ash.

Ash launched into the air, meeting Zekrom-P mid-flight.

"Let's do this!" Ash said, his voice filled with resolve. Zekrom-P nodded, bracing themselves as Ash's Z-Ring began to glow. He inserted the stone into its slot, and with a swift, practiced motion, activated the Z-Move.

'Gardevoir-Y, regroup with us!' he called through their mental link.

As Gardevoir-Y rejoined Ash, the battlefield shifted, with the two spectral figures—Shadow Ghost Mewtwo-X and Y—now hovering at Gardevoir-Y's side as part of their ghostly legion. Their hollow eyes glowed dimly, ready to defend their new master with silent, unwavering loyalty.

Ash felt the intensity of Zekrom-P's energy merge with his own, the sheer power surging through him as they prepared for their ultimate strike. With a commanding voice, he gave the call: "Zekrom-P, let's finish this! Use 1 Million Volt Thunderbolt!"

Zekrom-P unleashed an immense thunderbolt, brighter than any lightning ever witnessed, and it surged with a power that ripped through the very air, reducing the hall to ash and light. The impact vaporized everything within range, transforming the hall into a white-hot crater.

Now, in the silent aftermath, only Ash and his Pokémon remained, victorious and alone in the dungeon.

A congratulatory screen flashed before Ash, rewarding him with a hefty sum of XP, and new abilities that sent a spark of excitement through him.

"Guess you all read it, didn't you?" Ash asked, his voice carrying through the silent, scorched battlefield as he hovered over the white-hot crater.

'If you really want me to evolve, then I'll do it,' Pikachu replied, his voice calm through their mental link.

"No way," Ash shot back firmly. "If you don't want to evolve, that's the end of it. We'll figure out something else—some kind of limit breaker. Besides, we don't need more power right now. And even if we did, I'd never make you evolve against your will."

As his Pokémon unfused, Pikachu quickly leaped from Zekrom's shoulder, landing in Ash's arms.

"Enough of the sappy stuff!" Pikachu said with a cheerful grin. "Let's check out your new personal dimension already!"

"First things first," Ash replied with a smirk, "let's get out of this place."

He recalled Zekrom and took flight toward the tear in space-time, Gardevoir was riding on the back of Eilie, the crater radiating below as they left the dungeon. In moments, they slipped through and emerged in the safety of Ash's room.

"We need to get to school," Ash said, glancing at the clock on the wall.

"Don't remind me! That academy is crawling with those Rocket bastards, and they've taken our friends!" Pikachu growled, fury lacing his words.

"Dad, is that true?" Gardevoir asked, concern etched across their face.

"Yeah, it's true. When Gloom was taken, we went to the principal's office, and guess who's running the place?" Ash replied, raising an eyebrow.

"Gio…vani?" Eilie ventured, her voice uncertain.

"Exactly! That half-bald bastard is the principal! The academy isn't about education; it's a front to recruit potential members. Anyone who doesn't fit their mold? They just take away their Pokémon!" Ash whispered angrily.

"We have to do something!" Eilie insisted, her eyes bright with determination.

"Agreed, but let's discuss it in my new dimension. Time flows normally here, and if we stay here, we'll just waste it," Ash replied. As he spoke, they were enveloped in a colorless dome that teleported them to a tropical island.

"Woah!" Ash exclaimed, feeling the rush of power coursing through his veins. It was true; he had absolute power and control in this place.

He released Zekrom from his Poké Ball, the legendary Pokémon appearing with a crackle of energy.

"It's safe to say that you don't need to stay in your Poké Ball all the time. Plus, I can finally start catching Pokémon since I now have a place for them to live! Serena needs to know this!" Ash said, excitement lighting up his face.

"That's all great, Dad, but we really need to talk about this Team Rocket business!" Eilie interjected, her tone serious.
