Hello everyone, as you might of guess we'll meet the rest of the team in this chapter, so before you met them, I wanted to say, I there is a reason I choice all of their Pokemon so please don't complain about it, and you'll learn part of that reason at the end of this chapter.

Now let's start Lesson 1


Lesson 1

The Lesson Of The Great Sword Of Grayskull

Eternos

On this planet was a massive city built around a lake, with stone buildings around the lake, and a more advanced city built on a floating ring above the stone part of the city, and at the center of the lake a royal palace in the shape of a massive tower.

And hidden in the shadows of this massive city four beings and their massive vehicles were hiding in the shadows.

One was a green-skinned humanoid, bulky and muscular in build, with black facial hair, wears a dark muscle shirt, trousers, and carries tools and weapons on his belt. He also has some kind of facial tattoo over his left eye.

And with him was three metal balls floating in the air, with each metal ball having a big white eye, two screw next the eyes like they were checks, two black magnets on the side with a blue and red tip, and a large screw on the top of the head of the metal ball on to of the other two. This was a Magneton.

The other person was a tall and slender woman, wearing a form-fitting purple outfit and a hood that covers most of her head but leaves her face exposed. She has fair skin, purple eyes and white eyebrows.

Next to her was a small dark green blue ghost that looked like a head with long hair with pin tips, a red pear necklace around her neck, and the rest of its body looked like wavy fabric. This was a Misdreavus.

Near them was an advanced massive white vehicle with the front being all orange glass, it had two massive engines on the sides and four edges on the side that were acting like the landing gear at the moment.

The green man made a hologram appear out of his wrist that looked like a clock. "We should've done this ourselves. We know the king's palace better than you pasty does, Evelyn." The man said to the woman.

"Like we could walk into the place without raising the alarm." Magneton said to the man, with either a high male voice or deep female voice.

"Teela hasn't failed us yet, Kronis. She'll find what we seek. With that sword, the Power Grayskull will soon be ours." Evelyn said to the man, as they looked at the tower.

"You've been saying that for years. Excuse me if I don't believe you." Misdreavus said to Evlyn.

In the tower overlooking the city, was an old white skinned man with blonde hair that's long in the back and tied with a ponytail, a short mustache and large bears with a steak of white line going down the middle of his hair. He had a simple crown on his head with a light blue stone in it, he was also wearing a blue green jacket that ended with armored cuffs that looked like wings with a gold armored chest plate with the chest plates top looking like a pegasus coming out of it, black pants, gold armored bots, and golden armor shoulder pads that had a cap attached to it with the edge of the cap having thick fur.

Next to him was a 6 tall black lizard, standing on two thick legs with blood red claws for toes and fingers, a long tail, and its body was covered in dark gold armor, red eyes, and on the sides of the mouths were black ax blades with large red blades. This was a Haxorus.

Walking up to them as a decorative armored soldier.

Following him was a floating creature with shell-like armor, a small red fin on the bottom, a blue body, with a yellow belly and eyes. A knight helmet with a red blade on the end, and two lances for hands on the end of its arms. This was a Escavalier

"How's the nation of Eternos this evening?" The old man asked the soldier. "Quiet as a shadow, King Randor." The soldier said to the man.

"Never trust shadows, General." Randor said to the soldier. "He's right, many things slither in the shadows." Haxorus said to the soldier, with a deep male voice.

"I assure you both. Upon my honor as a Escavalier, there's nothing slithering in the shadows of your grand palace." Escavalier said to Randor and Haxors, with a male voice.

But something as slithering in the shadows, a young girl and a Pokemon.

The girl was a black teen of short stature with golden eyes that glow blue when she uses her magic. Her hair is white, tied in a ponytail. Her outfit consists of a dark blue long-sleeved sweatshirt, tight electric blue shorts with white and orange trim, and white gloves and shoes.

And with her was a small human-shaped creature with a blue body, a white lower body, white straps right below its three claw-finger hands, white circular feet each having a bump on them, a white head that had a point and curls on the side of its head, white eyes with black iris.

The two of them were sneaking right under the king's nose, running up his wall, using his flag poles as swing balls and running across them, even using the king's banner as a slide. The guards felt something was up, but could figure out what.

After making it inside, the girl waved her hands making them and her glow light blue, then a light blue image of the area, with pink ovals representing people and Pokemon.

"You thinking what I'm thinking, Teela?" The small human creature asked the girl with a female voice, as they noticed four ovals standing still in the back. "I sure am Meditite." Teela said to the small human creature, before moving to those dots.

And those dots were two guards and two Pokemon.

The guards looked the same, only revealing their chins, with one having a dark pink chin, and the other having a blue chin.

Both the Pokemon were both rock like men wearing Karate Gi with a black belts, with one being red and kinda round, and the other one being blue and tall and skinny.

"You two catch that game of modulok?" The pink guard asked everyone. "No, modulok's too complicated. Running on your hands and passing with your feet? No, thank you." the blue guard said the pink guard.

"Tuvar." The blue rock man said to the blue guard. "Baddhra." The blue rock man said to the Pink guard. "Can't you two focus on our job?" The blue rock man asked them both.

"Oh relax Sawk, it's not like anything ever happens around here." the red rock man said to the blue rock man. "That's not the point Throh. That point is we should do our job right or we'll be in trouble again." Sawk said to the red rock man.

That's when the General walked up to all three of them, his hands faintly glowing light blue.

"I'll take it from here, Soldier." The general said to Baddhra. "Of course, General Dolos." Baddhra said to the general, pulling out a large energy key and handing it to the general. Tuvar, Baddhra, Sawk, Throh saluted the general before leaving.

Once they were gone Teela and Meditite came down from the ceiling. "I'll take it from here, Soldier." Teela said to Dolos, as she waved her hands, revealing this Dolos to be a hologram, and Teela took the key from it before it faded away.

"Evelyn better pay us this time." Teela said to Meditite. "When does she ever?" Meditite asked Teela, as Teela unlocked the door, revealing a massive vault to them. "Oh, come on!" Teela said, as she slump forwards after they entered the vault.

"Word witch didn't say there'd be this many to choose from." Teela said to Meditite. "I'm more surprised that you thought she would tell us anything important. You know what to do, so get to it before the guards come back." Meditite said to Teela.

"Okay." Teela said to Meditite, before cracking her knuckles. Teela then waved her arms around, making them glow light blue, and slammed her hands into the floor, causing tendrils of light blue energy to travel though the vault, touching all the crates.

"Which one of you is gonna give me that trademark Teela Grayskull tingle?" Teela asked, as she made more tendrils of light blue energy.

After a couple of seconds off the tendrils of light blue energy touched a crate and glowed gold. This caused Teela and Meditite to laugh, before Teela stopped her spell, and they ran to the crate.

Once they reached the crate, Teela opened the crate, and pulled out a large metal sword.

The sword had a gold handle, a large flat piece of gold metal between the blade and handle with two curved spiders on the upper corners of the metal, a silver blade with many parts of it carved out, making it look rough.

"We've been contracted to go through all this trouble to steal a-" Teela said to Meditite, as she pulled out the sword, but stopped talking when the sword glowed gold, and Teela heard a voice in her head.

"Sword, Eternia, Grayskull, secrets, Eternia, Power, Masters of the universe, Masters of the universe." a wise female voice said in Teela's head.

"Teela! Teela! Teela, snap out of it!" Meditite said to Teela, as she hopped onto Teela's shoulder and snapped her fingers in Teela's face. That's when the glow faded, and Teela snapped back to reality.

"That was way more than a tingle." Teela said to Meditite, with near of them noticing

Tuvar, Baddhra, Sawk, Throh walked up to them, with Tuvar and Baddhra pointing their spears at them, and Sawk and Throh got into a fighting stance.

"Drop the sword!" Tuvar said to Teela. "And don't try anything stupid." Sawk said to Teela and Meditite. "I'll just put it right…" Teela said to everyone, as she pulled out a bag and placed the sword in it. "Here." Teela said, as she put the sword on her back.

"Did she just continue to steal?" Baddhra asked everyone. "She's a cocky thief." Throh said to Baddhra.

That is when Teela made her hands and eyes glowed light blue, while Meditite jumped off Teela's shoulder.

"Sorry. I just need my hands free to do… this." Teela said to everyone, as she let out a pulse of magic. The pulse hit Tuvar and baddhra's sword, making them spin around their waste and stop on the opposite side of where they once were.

"Oh on! How will we ever grab our swords with our other hands?" Baddhra asked Teela, clearly not impressed or concerned.

"Oh, Sorry. My thumb stuck." Teela said to everyone, before shaking her right hand. "Able to do this!" Teela said, as she cast her spell again, making their helmet spin around, blinding them, and making them drop their spears in confusion.

"Oh, yeah, much better." Teela said to everyone. "You're going to pay for that!" Sawk to Teela, as he and Throh got ready to attack Teela.

"Confusion!" Meditite said, as her eyes glowed teal, and a teal outline appeared on the crates around them. Meditite then made the crates fall on Tuvar, Baddhra, Sawk, Throh, pinning them to the floor.

This allowed Teela and Meditite to jump over them and escape. "Somebody stop them!" Baddhra yelled out from the rubble.

But the noise Meditite made with the crates alerted the whole place, causing the guards to chase them both.

Outside Evelyn, Kronis, Misdreavus and Magneton heard the alarms blaring from the palace. "Sounds like she got found out. Hopefully she got what we asked for." Misdreavus said to everyone.

"Ah-ha-ha, one of my legs fell asleep, sorry." A young male voice said, making everyone turn to the ship.

The young man had tan skin, and average build, hazel eyes, messy short black hair. He was wearing a white long sleeves shirt with green sleeveless jacket, brown pants, black fingerless glowed with a metal on the back and that looked like flat headed screws, with the one on his right hand being blue and the one of his left hand being orange, he had a kneed pad on the upper part of his right leg, armored boots, a heavy metal gauntlet on the lower part of his right arm that had two more orange flat head screws in it, and a orange shoulder armor on his right shoulder with a blue light balled on it.

And next to him was a floating Pokemon that looked like a shiny light blue robot leg with three silver triangles on the bottom of it, and the upper part of the knee joint had a single black eye with a red iris in it. This was a Beldum.

"Really Duncan, what are we going to do with you?" Beldum asked the boy, with a mechanical male voice.

"Must you have brought your apprentice along? Evelyn asked Kronis.

"You! Halt!" A male voice said, making everyone look up to see Teela and Meditite riding a flying vehicle that wasn't only big enough for one person to ride, getting chased by Flying type Pokemon and a couple guards riding the same vehicle as Teela and Meditite.

"Duncan didn't bring the Royal Guard to the extraction point. Just sayin'." Kronis said to Evelyn. "Forget that fool Duncan, let's deal with these guards.

That's when one of the guards managed to hit Teela and Meditite's vehicle, making it fall out of the sky. "Incoming!" Teela said to everyone.

"Jump!" Meditite said to Teela, before they jumped into a wall of a building and used their fancy footwork on the wall, letting them land on a roof, only to slide down the roof and crash into some boxes below.

But surviving that crash didn't mean losing the guards. "Run!" Meditite said to Teela, as they got up and started to run, avoiding the attack, and took cover being a dumpster.

Evelyn watched this, and wasn't interested, but she had an idea. "What an unfortunate turn of events… for them." Evelyn said to everyone.

"Agree. Magical Leaf!" Misdreavus said, as she fired multi-color energy leaves at the guards. "Laminae." Evelyn said, as she cast a spell that fired purple energy spikes at the guards.

"No! They're just doing their jobs!" Teela said to everyone, as she cast a spell that protected the guards from their attacks. And while Evelyn was mad at Teela for that, the guards didn't notice the help, and got back to attack everyone.

"Hachaos!" Evelyn said, as she cast an energy shield, blocking the guards' attacks. "Give me the sword, Hand Witch." Evelyn said to Teela, holding out her hand to her.

This caused Teela to take the bag off her back and look at it. "That sword does not belong to her." The voice in Teela's head said to her.

Getting tired of this, Kronis turned to Duncan. "Start the engine, kid. This is a bust. We're on our way to you." Kronis said to Duncan. Duncan gave Kronis a thumbs up and turned on the engine.

"The word is right there. Our key to universal unstoppable power is right there!" Evelyn said to everyone, gesturing her left arm towards Teela and Meditite. "You sure about that?" Magneton asked Evelyn, confusing Evelyn.

That's when Evelyn turned her head and noticed Teela and Meditite were gone. This made Evelyn groan in frustration.

"We don't gotta find the sword again, just the girl and her Pokemon. Let's move." Kronis said to Evelyn, as he threw a smoke bomb at the guards, blinding them.

When the smoke cleared, they saw their vehicle take off and leave. Unable to go after them, the guards returned to the palace. "Once they were gone, Teela and Meditite came out of hiding and took a sigh of relief.

"Bring the sword to the champion." The voice in Teela's head said to her. "What champion?" Teela asked, confused. "Why are you asking me? I have no idea what's going on with you." Meditite said to Teela.

The Jungle

The next morning Adam was rescuing a tiger kitten who was stuck on a branch sticking out of a cliff, and while Gible watched, Adam climbed down a creak in the cliff in order to reach the kitten.

"You know Adam, I should be the one who saves this kitten and not you." Gible said to Adam. "No, no, I got this." Adam said to Gible, before he slipped and started to fall down the

Luckily he used both his legs and arms to push against the sides of the cracks, stopping him. "Yeah, you got this." Gible said to Adami, a clear, I don't believe you tune in his voice, as Adam moved closer to the tiger kitten

"Hang in there, Kitty. I've got you. Just cars onto my shoulders and we can both go home." Adam said to the tiger kitten, as he changed his position so his back was against the wall.

"No." Kitty said to Adam, as Adam started to climb closer to him. "What do you mean, no?" Adam asked Kitty.

"I don't want us to fail." Kitty said to Adam. "We won't fall." Adam said to Kitty, before the rock he was holding onto broke, and Adam fell right into the branch Kitty was on, right where the sun didn't shine.

"You're not inspiring confidence." Gible said to Adam, from above, as Adam whimpered in pain. "We won't fall…" Adam said, highing through the pain. Then Kitty hopped on Adam's face.

"... if you get on my shoulders right now." Adam said to Kitty, as he pulled Kitty off him, with Kitty freaking out. But Kitty calmed down, and got onto Adam's shoulders.

"Did you, like, eat rocks today?" Adam asked Kitty, as he started to climb up the cliff. "I thought they were potatoes." Kitty said to Adam.

"Did they taste like potatoes?" Adam asked Kitty, as he started to climb up the crack.

"I've never had a potato before. How am I supposed to know?" Kitty said to Adam, as Adam placed his back against the rock, and almost dropped Kitty.

But Adam put Kitty on his back, and climbed up the crack, pushing his feet and hands against the rock walls. Adam climbed up to the top, and grabbed the edge of the crack. "You jump the rest of the way." Adam said to Kitty.

"What about you?" Kitty asked Adam. "I'll be fine." Adam said to Kitty. Kitty gathered some courage and got ready to jump, but was distracted by a dragonfly flying in front of his face.

"Dragonfly." Kitty said, sounding hypnotized. "No." Adam said to Kitty, as Kitty moving around started to make him slip. "Dragonfly." Kitty said, focusing on that instead of where they are.

"No, Don't do it. Focus." Adam said to Kitty. "Dragonfly!" Kitty said, as he jumped on Adam's feet.

This caused them both to slide down the crack, scream. But they stopped screaming when two vines came from above and wrapped around Adam and Kitty, stopping them, and letting Adam regain his grip. Not that they noticed, for they both kept screaming.

"You can stop screaming now." A female voice said to Adam and Kitty, making them stop screaming and causing Adam to notice Krass lowering herself to Adam, hanging upside down, with their grappling hook tied to her waist.

"Adam, are you two done yet? Or do you wanna hang out some more?" Krass asked Adam. "How long have you been there?" Adam asked Krass. "Long enough to work on that joke. Thought it might defuse the tension." Krass said to Adam, as she started to swing a little.

"And it's still not funny or defuses the tension." A female voice said to Krass, making Adam look up to see Mayu, Bagon, Abra, and Bellsprout at the top, with the vines coming from Bellsprout, and the flute Adam gave Mayu now on her waist with her crystal necklace tied to it.

"Relax Mayu, this is just how me and my best friend do things." Krass said to Mayu, as she grabbed Kitty, and moved back up to the top of the cliff.

"Well if you two took this seriously then Adam wouldn't be in this predicament. I mean really Adam. Couldn't you tie yourself to a rope, a vine, something, or any other kind of safety measure. If we didn't show up, you and kitty could have died." Mayu said to Krass and Adam, as Mayu and Bellsprout helped Adam up to the top of the clift.

"You all weren't on tracker duty today. What are you doing out here?" Adam asked everyone.

"Cringer and Heracross are missing, and I was showing Mayu how this part of the woods has the best snacks for grabbing, so I figured I drag her along and start looking for him here?" Krass said to Adam, as she grabbed a root ball off the ground and took a bit from it.

"You didn't tell me Cringer and Heracross were missing." Mayu said to Krass. "Wait, Cringer and Heracross were missing?" Adam asked Krass. "Kitty, did you come out here looking for your uncle and Heracross?" Adam asked Kitty, as Kitty

"Maybe." Kitty said, sounding guilty. "Kitty?" Mayu asked Kitty, clearly wanting the truth. "They said they wanted to go hunting again." Kitty said to everyone, making Krass spit out her food. "Puh! Cringer can't hunt without claws, nor Heracross without his horn." Krass said to everyone, before giving Adam his grappling hook.

"Try telling them that." Adam said to everyone. "Let's hurry before he gets into trouble." Mayu said to everyone, as they started to move.

Meanwhile Cringer and Heracross were getting forced into a poachers ship by two Beastopoids. "Contain. Shut." The first Beastopoid said, as it zapped Cringer and Heracross, keeping them under control.

"Push." The second of the Beastopoids said, as it zapped Cringer and Heracross, as he forced them into a box.

"Release me, or incur the wrath of my tribe, you Beastopoid brutes." Cringer said to the Beastopoids. "Yeah, you thin cans will regret it if you don't release us." Heracross said to the Beastopoids.

"Quarries talks like people." The first Beastopoid said to the second Beastopoid. "Quarries talks like we are people." The second Beastopoid said to the first Beastopoid. This made Cringer grunt.

"Don't you poachers want more from life than caging and burning animals? Why not rise up against your keeper? Try living for yourselves." Cringer said to the Beastopoids. This caused the Beastopoids to talk to each other with eclectic whirring.

"Is this really working?" Heracross asked Cringer. "I hope so." Cringer said to Heracross.

But it didn't. "Initiate capture." The first Beastopoid said, before the Beastopoids zapped Cringer and Heracross. This forced them into the box. "An uprising would displease our keeper." The second Beastopoid said to Cringer and Heracross. "Query for quarries: what happened to you two when last you displeased our keeper?" The first Beastopoid asked Cringer and Heracross, as they closed the box.

Cringer and Heracross tried to fight, but that's when they remembered Cringer's claws were gone, and Heracross didn't have his horn anymore. "Fair point, my subservient captors." Cringer said to the Beastopoids.

That's when the Beastopoids vehicle started up, and Cringer and Heracross were pulled up, shaking the cage.

"R'qazz will be most pleased to have you both back in the fight pit." The second Beastopoid said to Cringer and Heracross. "He may add your skulls to his trophy belt after your loss." The first Beastopoid said to Cringer and Heracross, before the two of them laughed and flew up to the driver seat.

"Oh, what an honor." Cringer said, sounding grumpy. "For the record, I blame you for this." Heracross said to Cringer, as the ship started to take off.

Once it was moving, that's when Adam, Mayu, Krass, and their Pokemon showed up, with Krass shaking the log they were on when she landed on it.

"Let's go, everyone!" Adam said to everyone, as he fired his grappling hook forward, with Gible holding onto him, and Krass following him with Bagon holding onto her.

"Once again, we're going in without a plan." Mayu said, before Bellsprout wrapped a vine around Mayu, then whipped another vine ahead, acting like a grappling hook for Mayu.

With some fancy footwork, Adam, Krass, and their Pokemon laned in the top of the vehicle. Meanwhile, Mayu and Bellsprout swung normally, and ended up crashing into the back of the ship, but were able to grab the top of the vehicle.

"So what's the plan?" Mayu asked everyone, as she pulled herself up so everyone could see her upper body.

"Let me at those circuit brains." Krass said to everyone, as she charged at the Beastopoids, but was stopped by Adam.

"No time for the bots. We gotta spring Cringer and Heracross." Adam said to Krass, before he went over the side, with his grappling hook helping him lower himself down to them.

Krass looked at the Beastopoids, wanting to smash them, but followed Adam over the side. Mayu groaned, as she pulled herself up, then went over the side, having Bellsprout use his vine to lower herself down to Cringer and Heracross.

Once everyone was lowered to the door of the box, Cringer and Heracross noticed them. "I knew you'd come for us." Cringer said to everyone. "We needed a faster ride home anyway." Adam said to Cringer. "Enough jokes, get us out of here!" Heracross said to everyone.

"Stand back." Krass said, as she swung back, and headbutted the door, but it had no effect. "Hang on!" Adam said to Cringer and Heracross, as he started to kick the box, while Krass kept headbutting it.

"Bite!" Gible said, as he tried to bite the cage, hoping to break it. "Headbutt!" Bagon said, as he joined Krass in the headbutting the cage.

But all they did was make a lot of noise, and had no effect on the cage itself. "Guys stop it! The Beastopoids will hear us." Mayu said to everyone.

And she was right, the Beastopoids heard them banging on the box. "Initiate stowaway protocol." The first Beastopoid said, looking angry, before he made the vehicle title, making everyone fall off, with Adam able to grappling hook Cringer and Heracross' box while falling off, and Bellsprout being able to wrap a vine around Adam's hook.

While falling Ada, Mayu, and Krass crashed into each other, with Krass grabbing Adam's waist then they crashed, and the Pokemon holding onto Mayu.

"See what I mean!" Mayu said to everyone, with a "I told you" tune in her voice. "Now what?" Krass asked everyone. "You up for a game of ram-ball?" Adam asked Krass, as Krass gasped, slipped and grabbed Adam's shoes before falling off Adam.

"What-ball?" Mayu asked everyone. "I'm wearing my helmet, ain't I?" Krass asked Adam. "What does your helmet have to do with this?" Mayu asked everyone, as Adam released some slack on his grappling hook, making them go back like a pendulum.

That's when Mayu realised what this ram-ball idea was, and didn't like it. "I shouldn't be surprised. Bellsprout let go of the ship before they crash it!" Mayu said to Bellsprout.

"You don't have to tell me twice!" Bellsprout said to Mayu, as he lowered them closer to the ground, before letting go, causing everyone to roll on the ground, as Adam and Krass flew past them above.

"Adam of the Tiger Tribe risks it all…" Krass said, as Adam swung them forwards. "To send Krass to the net." as Adam tossed Krass into the air. "Will she make the…" Krass said, as she fired her grappling hook at the driving set at the vehicle, hooking it on the small window in front of the Beastopoids.

Seeing this, Cringer and Heracross sighed. "Have I mentioned how much I hate this game?" Cringer asked Heracross. "Every time they play it." Heracross said to Cringer.

"Goal?" Krass said, as she used her grappling hook to fly right into the vehicle's controls, shouting and laughing like a madwoman. "Ow! Whoa!" Krass said, as she hit the controls, and rolled off the vehicle right before the controls exploded, and the vehicle started to crash in a rather dull manner.

And while the Beastopoids shut down, everyone else was fine, more or less. "Ow." Adam said, as he held a hand to his head, and looked around. As Adam stood up, Cringer came running up to Adam, making Adam gasp before Cringer tackled Adam into a hug.

"Who's a good cub?" Cringer asked Adam, as they rolled on the ground, with Cringer laughing. "Happy to see you too. But hug me any tighter, and I'll let them keep you next time." Adam said to Cringer, as Cringer let him go and they stood on their own feet, while Heracross moved to everyone.

"Wait. What happened to Krass, Mayu, and the others?" Cringer asked everyone. "I don't see them." Heracross said to everyone.

"Tiger Tribe for the win!" Krass said, as he appeared behind everyone, surprising everyone.

"You call this a win?!" An angry female voice asked everyone, making everyone turn to see Mayu and the Pokemon walking up to everyone.

"All you did was make noise and then smash your head into the vehicle. That wasn't a win, that was dumb luck." Mayu said to Krass. "It worked didn't it?" Krass said to Mayu. "That doesn't mean it was a good idea. What if you had missed the controls, they would have taken Cringer and Heracross." Mayu said to Krass, sounding concerned.

"But they didn't, so relax, Shrimpy." Krass said to Mayu, playing off Mayu's concerns. "Relax. Sorry, but no. I can't relax when I see you all act like a caveman and think that smashing your head into stuff will solve your problems." Mayu said to Krass. "Whatever Shrimpy." Krass said to Mayu, turning away from Mayu to Cringer.

"Cringer, next time you and Heracross feel like taking on some Beastopoids, let us know, huh?" Krass asked Cringer, as she ran up to hug him. "Now, where would the fun in that be?" Cringer asked Krass. "Yeah if we invite you, you'd never let us do anything fun." Heracross said to Krass.

"Tiger Tribe forever?" Adam asked everyone, as he and their Pokemon joined Krass and Cringer. "Tiger Tribe forever." Krass, Cringer, Heracross, Gible, and Bagon said as they placed their hands together.

Adam noticed Mayu, Abra, and Bellsprout did not join the group.

"You guys want to join us?" Adam asked Mayu, Abra, and Bellsprout. "I have no interest in joining. Let's get Kitty and head back to the village. It's getting late." Mayu said to everyone, as they started to leave.

After getting Kitty, the sun started to set as they got close to the village, in silence. "So Cringer, I have to ask. Why would you and Heracross go hunting again?" Adam asked Cringer.

"Everyone in the tribe does their part. Even without my claws, or Heracross' horn, we'd like to still do ours." Cringer said to Adam. "Yeah, you should know by now where not the type to just sit around and watch others work." Heracross said to Adam.

"Spoken like a true "Stripe"." Krass said to Cringer and Heracross, pointing to the strip tattoo she had, while looking at Adam. "I don't need a special tattoo to be a part of the tribe." Adam said to Krass.

"You keep saying that, but I never see you leave." Krass said to Adam, putting her hands on her hips.

"Now, now, Krass'tine. Every lost soul the tribe adopts gets their stripes when they so choose. If Adam isn't ready to set aside his cuff and get his stripe, Adam isn't ready." Cringer said to Krass, as Adam looked at the gold metal cuff on his left wrist.

"This is all I have from my life before. What if whoever lost me doesn't recognize me without this?" Adam asked everyone, as everyone stopped walking.

"It's been ten years. Ah, they probably stopped looking for you by now." Krass said to Adam, sounding excited about that. This made Adam sigh, and Mayu gave Krass a mean look.

"While Krass is being insensitive…" Mayu said to Adam, but was interrupted by Krass. "Hey!" Krass said to Mayu, sounding insulted.

"... She's not wrong. They probably think you're gone, if you want to figure out where you come from, you're going to have to make the effort and go looking for them yourself. I mean it's not like someone with a clue to who you are will just show up in the village." Mayu said to Adam.

That's when they heard some horn blaring. "Now what?" Mayu asked everyone, as they moved to the village.

Once everyone got to the village, everyone found the village standing around a tree, looking up to see Teela and Meditite in the tree.

"Who's that?" Mayu asked everyone. "No idea, never seen her or that Pokemon before." Gible said to Mayu. "Um, can we help you, tree lady?" Adam asked Teela, getting her attention. "Uh, your village is full of cats. I'm apparently afraid of cats." Teela said to Adam.

"Then why did you come out here to where the Tiger Tribe lives?" Adam asked Teela, petting Cringer, a little. "A voice in my head told me to." Teela said to Adam. "Oh, so she's crazy." Mayu said to everyone.

"I'm not crazy." Teela said to Mayu. "You're afraid of cats and follow a voice in your head to a village full of them. If that's not crazy, I don't know what is." Mayu said to Teela. "She has a point." Meditite said to Teela. "Not helping Meditite." Teela said to Meditite.

"Then ask the voice in your head how much it knows about cats being able to climb trees." Adam said to Teela. "Why?" Teela asked Adam, as Meditite turned her head.

"I'm going to guess, because of them?" Meditite said to Teela, making Teela turn her head to see a couple of tiger kittens in the tree with them.

This caused Teela to move away from the kittens, but that caused her to fall out of the tree, screaming as she fell down.

This made Adam gasp, and he ran to catch her. "I got her." Adam said to everyone, as he got ready to catch her

But Teela used her magic to catch herself mid air, surprising everyone. "Adam." Adam said to Teela, sounding impressed. "Teela." Teela said to Adam, as she landed herself in front of Adam.

"Magic!" A female tribe warrior said, before the tribe grabbed Teela and Meditite and threw them in a cage in one of the village's huts.

Meanwhile under the night sky, Kronis was flying their vehicle above the jungle, with Evelyn next to him, focusing on a spell, with Magneton and Misdreavus watching them, all the while Duncan and Beldum working on some small stuff in the vehicle.

"Are we sure she came out here?" Beldum asked everyone. "Yeah, what if she got caught?" Duncan asked everyone. "We'd know. I've been listening to the Royal security channels." Kronis said to Duncan.

"Right, because of all the crime we're doing." Duncan said to Kronis. "This is about revenge on the king." Evelyn said to Duncan. "We're not not doing crime, though." Duncan asked everyone.

"A double negative doesn't make you or I feel any better about any of this." Beldum said to Duncan.

"You find her or her Pokemon yet?" Kronis asked Evelyn. Evelyn was quiet for a couple more seconds. "We're here. Descend." Evelyn said to Kronis, making Kronis land the ship near the crash site that Krass made earlier that day.

Once they landed, Evelyn walked to the middle of the area. "Trahentium super revelare…" Evelyn said, casting a purple tornado.

"Is that an actual poacher ship?" Duncan asked everyone, as the rest of them came out of the ship.

And while Kornis looked at the Beastopoids, Evelyn's spell turned into a purple echo of Teela and Meditite. Evelyn made the echo move, but the sword on Teela's back made the echo break apart.

"The sword doesn't want her found." Evelyn said to everyone. "That's odd. None of the other Grayskull stuff you have acted like that." Misdreavus said to Evelyn. "So, any other plan on how to find them?" Magneton asked everyone.

"Think I can get these poacher bots up and running to hunt her scent." Kronis said to everyone. "Do it. Find the traitorous whelp." Evelyn said to Kronis, looking angry.

"Apprentice, get to work." Kronis said to Duncan, slamming the Beastopoid into Duncan's arms, and pushed Duncan away. This causes Beldum to give Kronis a mean look.

Back in the village, Teela was doing her magic while sitting down in the cage, with Meditite watching her from inside the cage, and Adam and Gible watching her from outside the cage. "Why aren't you afraid of magic like the rest of your people?" Teela asked Adam.

"To be clear, the cats don't like magic. Why let yourself get captured?" Adam asked Teela. "He's right. You have good reaction time, and I get the feeling of your light on your feet. Even with the other Tigers, I have a feeling you two could have gotten away if you really wanted to." Gible said to Teela and Meditite, making Teela sigh. "You wouldn't understand." Teela said to them.

"Oh, because I'm from the jungle and you're from the city?" Adam asked Teela, looking serious, as he walked to the cage. "Believe me, you're from the city." Teela said to Adam, surprising Adam. "I am?" Adam asked Teela, lowering himself to her eye level.

"Yeah, your accent sounds like you were born into an upper family." Teela said to Adam, surprising Adam even more. "Just count your lucky stars you're out here and not back in the house that Randor built." Teela said to Adam.

"You don't like the king?" Adam asked Teela. "No one likes the king, especially at street level or below straight level, which is where me and Meditite usually are." Teela said to Adam.

"Rando won't do anything about all the poaching out here, so he's no friend of the tribe's either. And now that we're done bonding, shouldn't you be getting back to doing whatever the voice in your head told you to?" Adam asked Teela, as he stood up and walked to the wall.

While walking, Teela saw the sword. "Like I said… you wouldn't understand." Teela said to Adam, making Adam stop and turn to her. "Try me." Adam said to Teela, smirking. This made Teela smirk as well.

Meanwhile outside, Mayu and Abra were enjoying their dinner together with the rest of Mayu's Pokemon in their Pokeballs, when Krass took their food.

"Hey!" Mayu said to Krass, before noticing Krass was looking at the hut Teela, Adam, Meditite, and Gible where in, with a mean look, and loudly eating everything she could get her hands on.

"You know stealing our food isn't going to help you." Abra said to Krass. Krass just huffed and looked away from everyone. "That isn't jealousy I smell… [sniffs]... is it?" Cringer asked Krass.

"Oh, of course not. Adam's like a brother to me. I'm just worried he's gonna leave. Some flashy magic wielder showing up isn't gonna help anything." Krass said to Cringer, as she played with some of her food before tossing it into her mouth.

"And it's a problem we can't solve by ramming it with your helmet, I assume." Cringer asked Krass, looking smart. "Every problem can be solved by ramming it with my helmet." Krass said to Cringer, with a serious look on her face.

"What about crossing a cliff? A math problem? Facing someone stronger than you? A thick metal wall? Or your helmet breaking? Not all things in life can be solved by slamming your helmet against it?" Mayu asked Krass. "My helmet breaking? That'll never happen." Krass said to Mayu.

"You don't know that. All things change Krass, whether you like it or not. And you can't solve it with aggression. You have to adapt and change or else you'll get left behind. That's the law of evolution, the strong survive and the weak fade away." Mayu said to Krass.

"I'm plenty strong. If anyone needs to worry, it's you Shrimpy." Krass said to Mayu. "Will you stop calling me that? And while you might be physically stronger than me, it's clear that you and many people in this village put no stock in intelligence. It's no wonder the Beastopoids such a major hassle for you all." Mayu said Krass.

"Big talk from you Shrimpy." Krass said to Mayu. "What did I just say?!" Mayu asked Krass. "Cringer, everyone, care to put your two cents in?" Mayu asked Cringer and the Pokemon. But they got no reply.

That's when Mayu and Krass noticed Cringer and the Pokemon sniffing the air. "Guys, what's up?" Mayu asked Cringer and the Pokemon. "Mm. We may have a problem that can be solved by ramming it." Cringer said to Mayu, as he and the Pokemon looked ready for a fight.

Back inside the hut, Teela was explaining things to Adam. "So the voice in my head led me here to deliver a package." Teela said to Adam. "To who?" Adam asked Teela. "We have no idea." Meditite said to Adam. "Unless you don't happen to have any champions out here, do you?" Teela asked Adam, making something in Adam klick.

"Being a champion is about defending those who can't defend themselves." Adam said, earning an odd look from everyone.

"That was weird. Where did that come from?" Teela asked Adam. "Yeah, I've been with you since you showed up, and I've never heard you say anything like that before." Gible said to Adam. Adam said nothing, but had a confused look on his face, not knowing himself.

That's when some horns started blaring, and while Adam and Gible stayed with Teela and Meditite, everyone else in the village went to the front of the village to see what was up.

And what was up, as a large number of Beastopoids, all of them blowing purple, and looking mad. And coming out from behind all the Beastopoids, was Evelyn, Kronis, Misdreavus, and Magneton, with Duncan and Beldum behind them controlling most of the Beastopoids.

"Give us the Witch." Evelyn said to everyone, as she made a couple Beastopoids move forward, and got them into a fighting stance, causing everyone in the village to prepare for battle.

"Tiger Tribe answers to no one!" A woman said to Evelyn, as she charged at Evelyn. And while she got over the Beastopoids and kept charging at them, Evelyn, Kronis, Misdreavus, and Magneton were not worried.

With a smirk, Kronis tossed a ball at the woman, the ball let out an explosion and a flash. Then the flash faded, faded, the woman found herself in strange machines that wrapped around her wrists and her neck. "Technology!" The woman said in a panic.

"Always be your weakness out here, am I right? Thunderbolt!" Magneton said to the woman, before letting out a bolt of electricity.

The bolt of electricity hit the woman and made her scream loudly in pain, with her feeling even more pain around her neck and wrist, with the machines absorbing the electricity and focusing it.

When the electricity stopped, the woman fell to the ground, passed out. This scared most of the people in the village.

From the hut, Adam and Gible saw this, and while Adam was getting serious, Gible was getting worried. "I need to protect the village." Adam said to everyone, as he grabbed a spear.

"Wait! Wait! Wait! Didn't you just see what happened? If we go rushing in without a plan, you'll end up like her!" Gible said to Adam, as Teela finished her magic, and used her magic to open the cage, surprising Gible and Adam.

Adam and Gible watched a confused look, as Teela and Meditite walked out of the cage like it wasn't anything big.

Outside, Evelyn kicked the woman away from them. "We'll find the girl and the sword once everyone's dead. Duncan, have the robots burn the village." Evelyn said to Duncan.

"You can't be serious!?" Beldum asked Evelyn, sounding mad. "No, no, no, I- I can't do that." Duncan said to Evelyn, holding the controls behind his back. This angered Kronis, and he took the controls from Duncan, before forcing Duncan to the ground.

"Coward." Kronis said to Duncan, before making the Beastopoids attack, all of them letting out streams of fire, causing everyone in the village to scream and panic.

Back in the hut, Adam and Gible were startled by all this, while Teela grabbed the sword.

"We'll run out first. Then you two get this as far from here as quickly as you can. Hide it." Teela said to Adam, as she gave him the sword. Teela then cast a spell that made a copy of the sword on her back.

"If we survive, my voice and I will come back for it." Teela said to Adam. "And don't follow us, we can handle ourselves." Meditite said to Adam

Meanwhile in the village, while everyone rushed around in a panic trying to put out the fire, a Beastopoid connected Cringer, Mayu, Abra, and Heracross.

But that's when Duncan and Beldum came out of nowhere, and smashed into the Beastopoid, with Duncan using a large wrench, and Beldum using his body.

And while Duncan looked nervous, Cringer looked happy, and Mayu was taken aback by Duncan. "Ah, thank you, kind stranger." Cringer said to Duncan, getting Duncan's attention.

But hearing Cringer caused Duncan to shriek. "Talking tiger!" Duncan said, panicking a little.

That's when Mayu turned her head, and noticed Krass and Bagon, firing her grappling hook at Duncan.

"LOOK OUT!" Mayu said to Duncan, as she pushed Duncan to the ground, making the grappling hook miss Duncan.

On the ground, Duncan got a good look at Mayu, and he felt something odd in him. But that feeling was blown away by surprise when he heard Krass and Bagon screaming.

"Whoa! Flying child!" Duncan said, as they watched Krass and Bagon crash into a wall, leaving an imprint of their bodies.

"Krass you really need to stop trying to headbutt everything before you get seriously hurt!" Mayu said to Krass, before looking at Duncan, and remembered she was still on top of him.

Suddenly Duncan and Mayu felt really awkward, "I'll just… uh… just.. Uh… yeah." Mayu said to Duncan, as she got off him. "Uh… thank… you." Duncan said to Mayu, as they both stood up.

That's when Krass and Bagon came running up to everyone, still wanting to headbutt Duncan. "Krass, Bagon, wait!" Mayu said to Krass, getting in front of Duncan, making Krass and Bagon stop, but didn't stop them from looking at Duncan with an angry look.

"Krass, Bagon, stand down. He and his Pokemon saved us." Cringer said to Krass. This made Krass and Bagon calm down.

But then everyone turned to see Adam and Teela trading nods before they and their Pokemon ran off in different directions.

While Adam and Gible ran somewhere else, Teela and Meditite ran past Evelyn, Kronis, Misdreavus, and Magneton, while the four of them watched the village burn.

"Ready Teela?" Meditite asked Teela. "Ready as I'll ever be." Teela said to Meditite. "Hey, Evelyn." Teela said to Evelyn, getting Evelyn, Kronis, Misdreavus, and Magneton attention.

"There she is." Evelyn said to everyone, as she, Kronis, Misdreavus, Magneton, and the Beastopoids charged towards Teela and Meditite.

But while running away, Adam and Gible saw this, and while Gible kept moving, Adam stopped and turned to where Teela and Meditite were going and saw everyone chasing them. And while he was told not to, Adam couldn't abandon them, so he went after them.

That's when Gible noticed Adam missing, and turned to see Adam running the opposite direction. "Adam? Where are you going?!" Gible asked Adam, as he went after Adam.

Meanwhile, Krass, Mayu, Cringer, Duncan, and their Pokemon saw Evelyn, Kronis, Misdreavus, Magneton, and the Beastopoids.

"They don't get to attack us and run without a fight." Krass said to everyone, sounding angry. "Come on, Bagon, Cringer, and Heracross." Krass said to Bagon, Cringer, and Heracross, before she ran off, head first.

Bagon, Cringer, and Heracross said nothing before going after Krass. "Guys wait! We have-." Mayu said Krass, Bagon, Cringer, and Heracross, but stopped talking when they ran out of sight.

"And they're gone. Hey- uh- what's your name?" Mayu asked Duncan. "Duncan- my name is Duncan." Duncan said to Mayu, sounding nervous.

"Well Duncan, you won't have something that could help us catch those fools before they get way in over their heads?" Mayu asked Duncan.

That's when Duncan had an idea. "Actually I do have something." Duncan said to Mayu, before running away, with Mayu, Abra, and Beldum following Duncan.

In the jungle Evelyn, Kronis, Misdreavus, Magneton, and the Beastopoids were still chasing Teela and Meditite, with Misdreavus, Magneton, and the Beastopoids firing attacks at them.

"Et Subvertam eos! Et Subvertam eos! Et Subvertam eos!" Evelyn said, as she casted as spell into the ground, causing purple energy beams to shout out of the ground, and forced arc shape as they went back into the ground again.

The energy did this multiple times, and it headed for Teela and Meditite. "Oh no!" Meditite said, as they had no way to dodge it, and ended up getting hit, causing them to roll right off the cliff that Kitty fell off earlier.

And while they tried their best to not fall, Teela and Meditite were losing their grip. But that's when Adam and Gible came out of nowhere and grabbed them.

"Hang on. We've got you two. Don't worry. This is my favorite cliff. I almost die here all the time." Adam said to Teela and Meditite, as he and Gible helped Teela and Meditite up.

"That's not reassuring." Meditite said to Adam, as She and Teela were pulled up. And while Gible and Meditite were normal, when Adam pulled Teela up, he caused them to roll on the ground together, stopping when Adam was on top of Teela.

"I told you to get away from here." Teela said to Adam, before noticing one of Kronis balls rolling right next to them. This caused Teela to kick Adam away, and hugged the ball into her chest.

That's when the ball went off, and wrapped the machines on Teela wrist and forced her arms behind her back, and the shock wave of the blast forced Teela to the edge of the cliff, only for Gible and Meditite to catch her and stop her from falling off the edge.

That's when Evelyn, Kronis, Misdreavus, Magneton, and the Beastopoids, slowly walked up to everyone, with Evelyn giving Teela a mean look, and Adam, Gible, and Meditite move to protect her.

But that's when the illusion she casted faded away, making Teela grunt. "Get the real sword out of here." Teela said to Adam.

"I had a sword this whole time?" Adam asked Teela, as he pulled out the sword and charged at Evelyn, Kronis, Misdreavus, Magneton, and the Beastopoids, roaring a little.

"Why did you have to tell him about that?" Gible asked Teela, as he ran towards Adam.

Adam and Gible stopped in the middle of the open area, the moonlight above them acting like a spot light.

"Hand it over, thief." Evelyn said to Adam. "You want this? Come and get it." Adam said to Evelyn, as he grabbed the handle of the sword and pointed it at them. Evelyn was annoyed by this, but something started to happen, making her go quiet.

What was happening was that the metal cuff on his arm started to turn into gold energy and made some kinda golden glowing skull symbols appear on the sword.

That's when wind started to spin around Adam and Gible, and a storm cloud appeared above them, with mighty thunder booming. This surprised everyone.

"Who are you doing this?" Gible asked Adam. "I don't know?" Adam said to Gible, as gold energy with words in it swirled around the sword.

"By the Power of Grayskull, I have the Power?" Adam asked, reading the words, and confused.

That's when a surge of golden energy came down from above, hitting Adam, as well as Gible, who was standing too close to Adam.

For Adam he was now several feet taller and boasts a greater muscular physique, with breast plating, along with metallic bracers and a baldric sporting an insignia of a sword made from three red line, neon lit boots reaching up to his knees. Beneath his plating and baldric, he wears a grey, sleeveless mail. His arms alight with ceremonial tattoos that glowed gold, and the sword in his hand grew even more, becoming an even bigger sword with gold energy flowing through the open spaces, and looking much smoother than it did before.

"I have the Power!" Adam said, as he let out a surge of energy, as an image of a massive and terrifying castle appeared behind him.

For Gible, he tripled in size, and his light blue turned dark blue, his legs now being longer with two knee joints, with the top of his leg bing thick with three flat spike with the largest of the spike on his front knee joints being red, his three toes became white claws, his tail become longer and ended with the having two curved fins on opposite sides of each other, his body became like a human and had sharp bumps for shoulders, the pattern on his body looked like a unzipped jacket with the zipper being more flat spikes, a red flat chest with with lower part of the chest being yellow, the fin on his head moved to his bak and grew gaining a couple curved cuts on the flat part of the fin, his head moved away from his body with the front of his neck being red, the bumps on his head stretched out a little as his head changed shape, it became more aerodynamic, with a large bump at the front with a multi-point yellow star on it, and a chiseled red jaw.

"I have the Power!" Gible said, as dark purple energy serpent dragons came bursting out of the ground around him, and the serpent dragons let out a loud roar.

That's when everyone saw his new form, with Krass, Bagon, Cringer, and Heracross showing up right before they transformed.

"What?" Kronis asked everyone. "This can't be." Magneton said to everyone. "But it is, these fools have the power." Misdreavus said to everyone. "No." Evelyn said, sounding very angry.

Adam and Gible let out a roar, as they started to calm down from the transformation, with Adam tattoos fading away.

"What? He's… a man." Krass said to everyone. "I don't think "man" is a good word to describe what happened to him or to Gible." Heracross said to Krass. "Who cares! Look at them!" Bagon said to Heracross, as three Beastopoids charged at Adam and Gible.

And while Adam swatted one of the Beastopoids away like he was playing a game of ball, Gible lunged forward, and slash the other two in half with his scythes covered in purple energy. The two Beastopoids that Gible slash frits out for a couple seconds before exploding.

It was at this point, Adam and Gible noticed what happened to each other, then themselves, causing them to panic a little.

"Is that what I think it is?" Meditite asked Teela, a confused, but interested look on her face. "The Power of Grayskull." Teela said to Meditite, looking happy, and making Meditite smile.

"Will never be yours!" Eveyln said to Adam and Gible, as she made the rest of the Beastopoids she had, attack Adam and Gible, with Adam and Gible quickly getting over the panic and fought back.

Snake Mountain

Meanwhile in Snake Mountain, as it rained outside, a large yellow pod opened up, revealing two beings.

One was an adult man in his thirties or forties, with tan skin, red glowing eyes, short brown hair, and a mustache partnered with a goatee. He wore blue royal robes, a pair of boots, and his left forearm was only a sickly green-yellow bone.

The other one a large five foot moth with the top being furry and white with four black studs for arm and the lower half being dark gray with light purple lines on the sides, it's head was black with deep green eyes, and sicky green bumps on the ide of its head that had a horn point above it's head, and on it's back was six sickly green wings that looked like the sun, with the edge of the wings having a dark green color.

The two of them fell out of the pod, feeling very weak, but quickly got over that. "We're finally free from that pod." Volcarona said with a male voice, as they moved to the edge of the temple snake mouth.

"The power of Grayskull… belongs to me!" the man said, as he and Volcarona manage to stand up, or fly in Volcarona's case.

"I won't be so sure about that?" A male voice asked the man.

The man and his Volcarona turn to see Dr. Michael was standing nearby, holding a golden scepter that looked like a skull wearing a four point crown, with light green crystals for eyes and jewels in the crown, and green lights behind the chins, on the very long handle, and lighting up the skull at the base of the scepter.

"I may not know what this Grayskull stuff is. But I'm starting to like it." Dr. Michael said to the man. "That's not the power of Grayskull. That power is just a blight called havoc. I need Grayskull to undo what it did to me!" the man said to Dr. Michael, as he showed off his bone hand to Dr. Michael.

But instead of being horrified by it, Dr. Michael found it interesting. "How about a deal, I'll help you get this Grayskull, and in exchange you tell me how this, Havoc, works." Dr. Michael said to the man.

"Why should I work with you, when I can just kill you, take my scepter back, and be on my way?" The man asked Dr. Michael, before falling forward a little. "Because I've learned a few things about this little scepter of yours. And if you're willing to listen, then maybe it can help with your hand." Dr. Michael said to the man.

The man looked at his bone hand for a couple seconds. "Very well. Serve me well, and I'll keep you around." The man said to Dr. Michael. "Very well, you can call us Dr. Michael. What do we call you?" Dr. Michael asked the man, as he gave the man the scepter.

"You can call me, Keldor. Princess Keldor, and future King of Eternos." the man said to Dr. Michael. "Whatever you say. Now let's get going." Dr. Michael said to Keldor, as he, Keldor, and Volcarona left snake mountain.


Hello everyone please like, follow, or review if you like this story.

And I hope you were surprised by what Grayskull did to Gible, I'll explain how this happened in a later chapter. But know that there's still more power in Gible than jumping all his stages to Mega Garchomp, and you'll see what I mean tomorrow, also until he gets his hero name in the next chapter, he'll still be called Gible.

And now that you've seen what happened to Gible I hope you now understand how I picked the hero's Pokemon, as for the villain's Pokemon, you'll have to wait and see why I picked their Pokemon and why they are the way they are, later. (That is, if you don't figure it out before lesson 4 in three days.)
