ã€ŠA Ditto&#x27;s Taleã€‹


 Ch 1 - You Died

    Choking on a Nintendo 3DS stylus pen, possibly one of the worst, if not ironic, ways to die for a gamer.

    The "Hero" of our story, was met with this cruel fate.

    After laying in bed doing nothing, having just completed the latest pokemon game to be released on his portable console, his name unimportant.

    He pondered, will it ever change?

    Or will it always be the same, reskinned kid-friendly game.

    "Barely anybody who truly loves pokemon is anywhere near being a kid now-" He mused to himself as he chewed on the stylus.

    When suddenly it fell through his teeth.

    With a mixture of existing gravity, horrible timing as he rose in panic and impressive acrobatics by the stylus, It went straight down his air pipe.This novel''s true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

    Our "Hero" was choking.

    Clutching his throat, trying to breathe but only making it worse.

    His sister''s loud music next door muffling his croaks for aid.

    Not even allowed any last words.

    Only a horrified expression as he fell off his bed and crawled towards his door.

    Dead.

    Our "Hero" is already dead.

    The best way to begin, our story.

    For as he opened his eyes once more, our "Hero" saw not his bedroom floor, nor door.

    He found himself standing in a forest of bright green, with tall lush grass and a shadow looming over him...

    He looked up, startled not by its sudden appearance but instead by its existence.

    A giant fucking Pidgey had begun pecking at his slimy body...

    Slimy body...

    ...

    He realized as pieces of his body were ripped off by the ferocious bird, that he had misconceived its size.

    The Pidgey, albeit still bloody tearing him to shreds, was normal size.

    It was he who had become smaller.

    Slimier even.

    ...

    Off in Route 1, a Ditto washaving its ass torn to bloody shredsby a very hungry Pidgey and-

    This is where our story, begins

 Ch 2 - Splash

    Blood, or what must have been blood, it filled his surroundings purple as the ferocious beast assaulted him.

    Talons and Beak trashing his slimy body, he tried to run, he tried to escape.

    But the Pidgey was just too damn fast, much faster than his snail-like movements.

    Ditto collapsed into a sludge-like form, exhausted from the pain and struggling, he couldn''t move anymore.

    Whilst the Pidgey as it loomed over him, launched its final strike.

    "Machoke I choose you!" A voice then suddenly called out, as a shining light engulfed Ditto''s sight briefly.

    A much larger, much fiercer creature stood over them both now. Stone-like blue skin with thick crimson veins bulging out with its muscles, a golden belt also gleamed from over its crotch. The Machoke growled down at the now terrified solid Pidgey, staring up in frozen fear at the mighty opponent.

    "Machoke, Brick Break." The voice called out once again, and the pokemon did as told with a movement so sudden Ditto barely saw it end.

    As the Machoke slammed down its palm, karate-style into the Pidgey while the feisty birdy tried to evade.

    No luck though, as the palm descended upon the bird, visibly chopping its bones aside as it was crushed into roadkill.

    Once again blood splattered all around Ditto, red blood this time, droplets of it covering his vision as he gazed at the horrid sight.

    "What the actual fuuu-" He tried to say but was cut off as both the Machoke and a form behind it jumped back at the sound.

    "Wa-wa-wa-wa-It speaks! Did the bloody Ditto just speak!?" A human said as she hid behind her Machoke, short bright green hair with brownish eyes, wearing a martial arts uniform which did everything for her plentiful chest.

    She gazed at the Ditto as he gazed back at her...accessories.

    "What Ditto...Oh right..." Ditto mused to himself, "Wait, WHAT?!"

    "Wa-wa-wa-WHAT THE FUCK!?" The girl screamed, as her Machoke suddenly turned into a flash of bright light, surging down into a red and white sphere she had been holding at her side.

    "M-M-Machoke! The fuck man!?" The girl squeaked in surprise, glancing at the ball.

    Ditto recognized the sphere, it was a pokeball.

    But he had worse things to think about right now, as he looked himself over once again.

    The purple bleeding gashes aside, he was a slime, a green slime with tentacly hand-like protrusions, beady white eyes and a creepy thin white mouth.

    He knew this because his left eye had just expanded forwards onto a new tentacle and looked back at himself.

    "THE FUCK WHAT!? NO! NO NONONONONO!" Ditto shouted at the top of his...lungs? "Anything but this! Charizard! Garchomp! Dragonite! Maybe even Lucario! Come on cruel world! Why such a bitch!?"

    "Excuse me!?" The girl he had just called bitch exclaimed, pale as a ghost as she stared right back at his settled left eye and protruding right one.

    "Oh, not you, no you''re..." Ditto took in a deep breath as his eyes wandered to her chest, "Finnee..." he breathed out.

    "Yeah no." The girl then said, covering her chest with one arm as she reached into her pouch with the other, seemingly snapping out of her daze. "Don''t...Move...Talking green Ditto, hah, way till sensei sees-" She threw a pokeball at Ditto. "This!"The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

    "Nope." Ditto then said, suddenly slapping the ball out of the way.

    ...

    They stared at one another for a moment.

    "I said...this!" She repeated herself, and her previous action.

    ...

    "And I said...Nope." Ditto also repeated both, slapping the second pokeball aside with his left tentacle. "You know, I always wondered, why do pokemon who haven''t passed out unconscious, not react to pokeballs being thrown at them? You never miss in the game neither do they ever...you know..." He muses as he deflects a third.

    ...

    Once again they stare at one another for a few moments.

    "Fuck it," The girl then stated, taking out two great balls per hand.

    "Fuck that!" Ditto exclaimed as the first one comes flying his way. He rolls to the side, evading it entirely before having to deflect a second with both tentacles, sending it rolling over his...head? "Oh so THAT''S how they move!" He realized, having rolled over himself so quickly.

    "Grr, stop that!" The girl shouted back, taking out a pokeball Ditto once more recognised , "Machoke I choose you!" She then said as the muscle-clad pokemon appeared from the same exact flash of light. "Hold the little git down!" She told her pokemon, and the Machoke turned to glare down at Ditto.

    They stared at one another for a moment.

    "Screw that as well!" Ditto mused before beginning to roll the fuck away.

    "Hell no! Fetch it Machoke!" The black-belt girl said, aggressively pointing after the Ditto as it roll-roll-rolled away.

    "I''ma giggitty the fuck outta here! Fuck off! Piss off! DON''T TOUCH ME!" Ditto screamed in great distress as a now determined Machoke turned after him.

    And the chase began.

    As Ditto rolled his slimy green body through the tall grass at maximum throttle, Machoke trashed his way through as well, sending many a poor pokemon flying out of its path or...else.

    "Don''t let that little green shit get away!" The girl shouted out as she tried to keep up, Ditto was actually rolling away faster than she could run!

    "That''s very racist-" Ditto shouted back with a wavy voice as he roll-roll-rolled into a pond, floating out of the water he spat the liquid out of his...mouth?

    "It can''t swim! Get the sucker!" The girl exclaimed seeing Ditto floating at the riverside. "Machoke! Headbutt!" She ordered, and a shine shone within Machoke''s eyes.

    As it lowered its head while charging forth, it took one long step, slamming its foot down and cracking the ground beneath itself.

    Ditto''s green body visibly paled at the sight. "Shit! Shit! Shit!" He swore.

    Fuck what do I do!? What do I do!?

    He thought to himself, panicking further as the monster rushed ahead with a shine to its forehead, a forehead that was heading straight for him.

    Ditto held his breath, and flapped as many short tentacles as he could produce, upwards.

    Sending him sinking down a few feet, enough to open his eyes and see the maddened Machoke soar through the water surface above and crash into the river beyond.

    But he couldn''t hold his breath long enough, already needing air, he was forced to flap-flap-swim back up.

    Quickly he glanced between the approaching trainer and her recovering pokemon.

    He needed a plan, and quickly.

    But what could a poor defenseless little green Ditto do? He asked himself.

    What CAN a Ditto do? Other than...

    Of course, it was so obvious.

    But what? What should he...

    Ditto looked around, searching for something, but all he saw were Magikarp in the water splish sploshing the fuck outta here.

    Then his gaze settled on the Machoke as its own eyes met it.

    Duh!

    He thought to himself, as the trainer''s voice once again rang out in command.

    "Machoke! Fucking Brick Break that son of a cunt!" She ordered, and both of the Machoke''s hands went flat, as it stared murderously at Ditto.

    And Ditto stared back, unmoving, waiting for the opportune moment...

    Machoke leaped out of the river water, rising up into the air alongside falling Magikarps, both hands held high as he came down upon Ditto''s position.

    Then, a flash of light surrounded Ditto, as he thought of just one thing.

    One singular word filled his mind, over and over and over.

    Transform!

    Ditto thought, and transform he did.

    As the Machoke''s Brick Break was met with two similarly bulky hands, doing a very similar move yet...

    What stood before it now, and what they were doing, made absolutely zero sense.

    A red-skinned Machoke now stood before it, using his own Brick Break to meet theirs, yet as Machoke looked closer it noticed more...

    Its foe''s Brick Break, had water surrounding the hands.

    And the red Machoke before it...had a Magikarp''s head.

    Before it could even try to comprehend what the actual fuck it was looking at, the water surrounding the Magichoke''s hands splashed forth...

    It had more than just no effect at all.

    Machoke was sent soaring into the sky by a blast of water crashing into its body, up-up-and away from sight.

    A star shined where the Machoke was last seen.

    "What...the...actual-" The trainer began to say as she gazed at what was previously a Ditto.

    As Ditto glanced over himself as well.

    He raised his head to then look straight at her.

    She reached for her pokeballs.

    "Nupe," The Magichoke said, "Nupenupenupenupenupenupe~" He repeated, as he turned tail and disappeared into the forest.

    Dropping her pokeball at the sight of it entering the forest beyond the river, the girl simply sighed as she turned away with wide eyes full of mental exhaustion. "I''m definately gonna need a bottle of wine and a wank..."

 Ch 3 - Karps

    A beautiful sunny day shone brightly upon Pallet Town as three brand new trainers exited professor Oak¡¯s laboratory, each with a starter pokemon in tow, the trainers joked and chuckled with one another as they walked.

    ¡°Hah, that hoe is so late she¡¯s probably not gonna get a starting pokemon!¡± The female of the group stated with great amusement, long brown hair, green eyes, and a green-white school uniform, the girl led the other two forth towards the forest¡¯s edge right beside the river¡¯s dead end.

    ¡°Hehehe, I mean, I wouldn¡¯t mind giving her my Onix.¡± Claimed one boy, jet black hair, blue eyes, a blue cap, blue jacket and grey jeans. He had a douchey look to his face.

    ¡°More of a weedle¡­¡± Green coughed to the third trainer, blonde hair, brown eyes and a red to black tracksuit.

    ¡°I didn¡¯t need to know that Remy¡­but alright seriously,¡± Red groaned, raising his arm and stopping Blue in his tracks. ¡°Quit the bullshit, you made your Mom¡¯s Spearow steal her alarm clock again didn¡¯t you Jackal?¡±

    ¡°Pffpfpft¡­No¡­¡± Jackal bullshitted back.

    ¡°Heh, tough luck on her whether he did or not!¡± Chuckled Remy.

    ¡°And you,¡± Red turned to Remy then, ¡°Why are you always such an insufferable bitc-¡± He was about to ask as they lay stopped beside the river''s dead-end.

    ¡°Magi¡­¡± When a sound came from the forest nearby.

    ¡°Shush!¡± Red then exclaimed, shushing himself. ¡°Did you hear that?¡±

    ¡°What?! Come on! Continue that fucking sentence Chris!¡± Jackal growled, as his Squirtle and Chris¡¯s Charmander glared at one another from each trainer¡¯s arms.

    Excited to have their first battle.

    ¡°Shush!¡± Chris exclaimed once again, ¡°Listen! Do you hear that?¡± He asked the two, each going quiet then as they listened in to the forest.

    ¡°Magi Magi¡­¡± The sound came once more.

    ¡°A wild pokemon!¡± Remy whispered. ¡°This close to town?¡±

    ¡°Never heard that call before¡­¡± Jackal mused, trying to locate the creature through the trees and bushes ahead.

    ¡°Dibs!¡± Chris called out, suddenly rushing off into the forest.

    ¡°W-wait! The fuck! Hell no!¡± Jackal called after him in a whisper, giving chase to Chris right after.

    ¡°Ugh, boys.¡± Remy groaned, calmly walking after the two as her Bulbasaur followed behind her. ¡°There¡¯s no way a wild pokemon is this close to town, maybe Route 1 but here¡­¡± She mused as she followed after them, watching as they rushed around the trees, making every sound in the book.

    Rolling her eyes, Remy walked calmly and quietly, going around a tree she suddenly lost sight of them¡­

    Catching a brief, blurred glimpse of what lay at the beach beyond the row of bushes before her.

    Blurred because both Jackal and Chris suddenly grabbed an arm of hers each and pulled her down behind the bushes, looking confused Remy glanced at the both of them¡­

    Both pale faced.

    ¡°Did¡­we just see what I think we just saw?¡± Jackal asked, still whispering.

    ¡°No way, no, no way.¡± Chris replied.

    ¡°What did you see?¡± Remy asked, having been given no time to see anything more than a red blur.

    All three of them pushed their hands through the bushes then, peaking another glimpse at the beach.

    Their eyes widening at the sight, their bodies going completely still as did their pokemon.

    As they saw a four feet tall Magikarp with a humanoid body, sitting on a large rock and staring down the beach deep in contemplation.

    They pulled themselves away from the sight.

    ¡°Magi Magi¡­Magi¡­¡±If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. Please report it.

    The three glanced at one another, ¡°There¡¯s no mistake.¡± Chris said to them both.

    ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Jackal agreed.

    ¡°Mhm...¡± Remy added.

    Then turning to stare into the bushes, they took another peek to find the Magichoke now¡­Checking itself out.

    Flexing its arms, straightening its back and popping its shoulders. Its crimson muscles were bulging in places humans didn¡¯t even have any. A crowd of Magikarps had even gathered at the beach¡¯s shallows, watching the being in awe.

    As it now flexed its arms downward and raised its chest forth¡­

    Before beginning to rhythmically pop its rock-hard pecs.

    Each trainer spoke in unison then.

    ¡°We¡¯re being hypnotised and confused by the real pokemon to see¡­that.¡± Chris plainly said.

    ¡°I¡¯m still asleep in bed being affected by a ghost pokemon¡¯s nightmare power!¡± Jackal grumbled.

    ¡°That¡¯s the sexiest Magikarp I have ever fucking seen.¡± Remy mused in agreement.

    Chris and Jackal both looked away and turned to stare dumbfounded at her.

    ¡°What?¡± Remy asked, her expression turning red as she glanced at either boy. ¡°Come¡¯on¡­girls can have those thoughts too!¡±

    ¡°You need Arceus Remy.¡± Chris said in disbelief as Jackal simply shook his head in disappointment.

    When suddenly a rhythmic sound began to play out from beyond the bushes.

    ¡°Karp! Karp! Karp! Karp!¡±

    Looking through the foliage once again, the three new trainers were presented with an even stranger sight than before.

    The Magikarps that had showed up at the shallows had tripled in number and¡­

    And they were¡­

    ¡°Karp! Karp! Karp! Karp!¡±

    They were now bowing down their fins before the Magichoke, as if praising the arrival of the messiah.

    Pale as a Froslass, the three trainers took their pokemon into their arms and stalked away from the bushes, back into the forest.

    Pausing midway back, Chris glanced at both his neighbours. ¡°Guys, we saw, nothing.¡±

    Each nodded in absolute agreement, even the pokemon.

    <hr>

    Moments earlier

    <hr>

    Magichoke lay sitting upon a beach rock, contemplating life, the universe, and existence within it.

    Okay okay, chill b, take yourself through everything that just happened step by step¡­

    He thought to himself, not noticing the ¡®Magi¡¯ sounds he was making as he pondered.

    I was just laying in bed, minding my own fucking business, nibbling on the stylus as¡­usual¡­The fucking stylus! Okay okay, calm¡­relax! I woke up¡­in tall grass¡­that fucking pidgey! Fuck! Shit! God damnit!

    He stood up, about to slam his fist into the rock he had just been sitting on, only to pause.

    He stared at his hands.

    You know¡­this actually ain¡¯t so bad.

    He thought as he glanced over his body.

    This is more muscle than I could have ever gotten in that boring fucking world!

    Looking himself over, Magichoke began to flex his muscles.

    Ohohoho yeah, fuck yeah. Look at these things! I¡¯m a Magikarp with a nine pack! A fucking nine pack! Who¡¯s gonna stop me now! Fuck Rick from class B, take my lunch now bitch!

    Grunting as he pushed his chest forth.

    I wonder¡­

    He began to pop his pecs.

    Holy karp.

    Up one went, then down, then up the other, then down¡­it went on for a while.

    Holy fucking shit.

    ¡°Karp?¡±

    A sound then snapped him out of his amused daze, Magichoke turned to the shallows nearby only to stumble several feet back.

    ¡°Not¡­Karp?¡± The voice asked in a whisper, as before him now floated over a dozen Magikarps.

    ¡°Uhhh, yes Karp?¡± He tentatively whispered back, and a unified gasp came from the school of fish, as more gathered to stare at him in awe.

    ¡°The legends¡­are true!¡± A weary fishy voice then exclaimed in a croak, as a white-bearded Magikarp pushed his way through the rest, coming to float before Magichoke with wide trembling eyes. ¡°The¡­T-Th-The prophecy! It comes to fruition today my disciples!¡± The old karp exclaimed.

    Magichoke simply stared on in confusion as the entire, now more than three dozen, school of Magikarps gasped once more.

    ¡°No more must we suffer as prey to all! No more shall we have to splash around as helpless snacks!¡± The old Karp began to preach, ¡°Our lord has granted us mercy! Bestowed us with a grand evolution! You!¡± It then exclaimed, leaping out of the water and splashing down before Magichoke¡¯s feet.

    ¡°Me?¡± Magichoke repeated in confusion.

    ¡°You! This old karp begs of you almighty great one!¡± It begged, flopping about. ¡°Please! Karp please! Bless us with your power too! Let us finally rise from the shallows and take what is rightfully ours! No longer having to wait and hope to become great serpents!¡±

    ¡°Uhh¡­I don¡¯t think I can do that.¡± Magichoke mused, shaking his palms at the hopping fish.

    ¡°Then please! Bestow it onto our young! We offer you everything! Our homes are for you to reside in! Our people for you to lead! Our women¡¯s wombs for you to take!¡± The old Karp continued to plead, ¡°Bless our females with your godly seed!¡±

    Magichoke was at this point at a complete loss for words.

    ¡°Let us raise an army! The Magikarps shall finally rise up from the pits of the food chain! We shall dominate the entire land-world!¡± The old crone rambled on, as the entirety of the Magikarps before him began to chant.

    ¡°Join us! Join us! Join us!¡±

    Magichoke¡¯s left eye began to twitch.

    ¡°Bless us! Bless us! Bless us!¡±

    This was just too much, too much for his mind to handle.

    ¡°Mate with-¡± They were about to chant.

    But Magichoke had enough of it.

    As he suddenly kicked the old Magikarp, sending it soaring through the air, tears of joy trailing behind it as the rest of the Magikarps watched it fly with awe.

    It shot into the sky and as everything that flew that far up, nothing but a brief sparkle could now be seen.

    Oh shit I didn¡¯t mean to¡­

    Magichoke thought as he watched the Magikarps turn around to stare back at him.

    ¡°He made the old man fly!¡± One exclaimed.

    ¡°Holy Gyarados! He really is a god!¡± another gasped.

    ¡°Make me fly too!¡± A third shouted.

    ¡°Yes yes! Give me flamethrower!¡± Asked a fourth.

    ¡°What about dark pulse!?¡± The fifth added.

    ¡°Impregnate me!¡± A sixth begged.

    ¡°I bloody can¡¯t!-¡± Magichoke then shouted back, shutting each of them up. ¡°Wait what the fuck did you just say?¡± He then asked the last to speak, eyes just as wide open as his fishy mouth.

    The Magikarp then slowly and awkwardly began to flap its way to the back of the school.

 Ch 4 - Gotta catch em all!

    ¡°Alright! Alright! Everyone just¡­just slow down, jesus christ slow the fuck down!¡± Magichoke shouted as the Magikarps barraged him with impossible requests.

    Suddenly snapping, he stomped his right foot down, making a cloud of sand rise all around him.

    The Magikarps went quiet.

    ¡°I did not make the old man fly, I cannot give you any power, and I am not a god.¡± He announced, then thinking of undoing his transformation, a flash of light briefly blinded the Magikarps as right after a green Ditto stood before them.

    ¡°I¡¯m just a freaky Ditto.¡± He told them, and a wave of disappointment surged from the school of fish.

    ¡°So¡­you¡¯re not even one of us?¡± Asked on karp.

    ¡°No¡­Sorry?¡± Ditto mused awkwardly.

    ¡°Well, back to helplessly swimming about guys.¡± Said another, as all sighed and turned to leave.

    ¡°I¡¯m sorry guys¡­Really, but there¡¯s nothing I can do.¡± Ditto apologised.

    ¡°Right, they all say that.¡± Grumbled a third, splashing water onto Ditto as it swam off.

    ¡°Well you don¡¯t need to be dicks about it!¡± Ditto then spat back.

    ¡°Hah, what do you know?¡± Then said one Magikarp standing out from the rest, its yellow scales sticking out from the red group of fish. But not just that, while some of the Magikarps did have some, this one was riddled with scars and gashes.

    ¡°Nothing, that¡¯s what.¡± Said Shiny angrily, ¡°Really, who do you think you are, do you even know what we have to go through each and every single day? Do you have any clue what our existence is like?¡±

    ¡°Uhh, eventless?¡± Ditto guessed.

    A vein visibly popped on Shiny¡¯s face, but he just sighed. ¡°You¡¯re new around here, aren¡¯t you? Come, follow me poor wishful thinking child.¡±

    ¡°Uhh, sure goldie.¡± Ditto mused, rolling into the water, Goldie suddenly picked him up onto his scaly back.

    ¡°Let me show you, the life of a Magikarp.¡± Goldie said as he led him off down the shallows, his large eyes scanning their entire surroundings with great nervousness. ¡°This is a world where one must be vigilant, for threats stalk in every shadow. Every bush, pebble, even shadows themselves. Enemies. Lay. Everywhere.¡±

    Oh boy, I found the village nutcase.

    Goldie swam for several moments, coming to a turn on the beach, he entered into a river and swam upstream for several more.

    Coming to a stop as a familiar sight came to both swimmer and passenger.

    Four trainers stood at the river-side, rods held steady as they fished into the stream.

    ¡°Why are we here?¡± Ditto asked.

    ¡°Shh! Shut it and watch.¡± Goldie snapped back.

    <hr>

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GScHgShtZvs</a>

    <hr>

    And watch they did, as the trainers and their pokemon lay relaxed.

    When suddenly one rod¡¯s line pulled.

    ¡°Dheren! Your line!¡± One shouted and Dheren jumped, grasping his fishing rod tightly he began to pull in the line.

    ¡°Oohh, this ain¡¯t no old boot!¡± Dheren exclaimed, as the water where his line sank into splashed and thrashed.

    ¡°A glorious moment for anybody else of my people.¡± Goldie whispered as they watched Dheren reel in his tired out catch.The author''s tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

    ¡°What is it?¡± Asked one trainer.

    ¡°I see something!¡± Exclaimed another.

    ¡°It¡¯s¡­¡± Dheren began to say excitedly as a red-scaled silhouette leapt out of the water. ¡°A Magikarp¡­¡± He dejectedly finished his sentence.

    ¡°Ugh, another one?¡± Grumbled the last trainer, as Ditto then noticed the fish bone he was using as a toothpick.

    The campfire nearby.

    And the pile of eaten Magikarp corpses next to it.

    ¡°Oh god.¡± Ditto mused at the sight.

    ¡°Yes! Catch me! Please! Let us go on a grand adventure master!¡± The caught Magikarp exclaimed as Dheren sighed whilst staring wearily at it.

    ¡°But they never believe me when I say,¡± Goldie continued on, ¡°That nobody can be assed to even put us in their PC Box 2. Much less train us. Much less catch us.¡±

    Dheren took the hook out of the Magikarp¡¯s mouth then, holding it by the tail he grumbled whilst raising it up. ¡°Anybody still hungry?¡± He asked.

    ¡°Nahh niggy, I¡¯m fuller than a Gyarados in a Magikarp lake.¡± One sighed in satisfaction.

    ¡°Yeah, my pooch is fine too, and Tom ate most of them so.¡± Added another, petting his Poochyena as it munched on a Magikarp skull.

    ¡°Eh, ya could catch it.¡± Suggested Tom with a wide smirk.

    ¡°Hah! Yeah, I¡¯ll give it to my grandma, she¡¯ll have just as a chance at fighting the first gym as I would with it!¡± Dheren burst out laughing, suddenly dropping the pokemon onto the ground before kicking it back into the water.

    A stream of tears trailed behind the poor pokemon as it crashed back into the shallow water. ¡°I swear there¡¯s not a single Goldeen, Tentacool or Poliwag in this damn stream.¡± Dheren groaned, throwing his fishing rod aside.

    ¡°That, is the life of a Magikarp.¡± Goldie then added as he turned them away from the trainers, ¡°Swim, get eaten. Swim, get fished out, then eaten. Swim, get fished out, get kicked out. Eventless is one way to put it, but pitiful is my word of choice. We¡¯re catched so little that there¡¯s more Magikarps than any other pokemon in the entirety of Kanto.¡±

    Goldie glanced back at Ditto, seeing as the strange creature still lay staring off at the trainers. ¡°You heard any of that slimy?¡±

    ¡°Yeah, I don¡¯t like it.¡± Ditto replied.

    ¡°No shit, who would when seen from our perspective. But that¡¯s just life, isn¡¯t it?¡± Goldie grumbled, glancing away from Ditto and at the poor Magikarp recovering from the event. Glancing back at Ditto¡­

    There was no Ditto.

    ¡­

    Ditto was gone from his back.

    ¡°Char! Char!¡± A sound bellowed out from the skies above then.

    ¡°Holy shit! A Charizard!¡± Tom exclaimed from the group of trainers as each of their gazes rose to the sky.

    ¡°Bah, there¡¯s someone on it, no can do.¡± Another trainer added with a groan.

    ¡°Fuck man, why you always such a buzzkill Jason?¡± Dheren then said, spitting into the water angrily.

    ¡°Oh, you want a Charizard now?¡± A voice then hissed from behind them all.

    As a bright light burst out, each trainer and their Poochyena turned to face it.

    Standing five feet tall with wings going as high up as seven, the grey-furred draconic monster loomed a shadow over them all.

    A black flame lingering about its sharp-fanged and snarling maw.

    ¡°W-Wha-What the fuck are you!?¡± Jason exclaimed, falling off his deckchair and quickly rolling into standing. ¡°Pooch get¡¯em! Bite!¡± He yelled at his pupper who growled and barked at the beast.

    Rushing forth, the Poochyena leaped at the monster, opening its fangs wide.

    A crunching sound was then followed by tearing flesh and crushed bones.

    Jason puked out his entire stomach at the sight of his Poochyena falling to the ground before the monster, shred into two parts.

    ¡°T-The fuck do you want!?¡± Dheren exclaimed, grabbing hold of his fishing rod, he trembled from head to toe.

    The Mightyrizard growled, ¡°I want¡­I want!¡± its eyes shone a murderous red. ¡°I want to be the very best.¡±

    A black blaze began to swirl about its fangs as it spoke.

    ¡°Like you, will never be.¡± Humming the rest until, ¡°It¡¯s you and me.¡±

    Opening its mouth wide, Mightyrizard bellowed pitch black flames upon them all.

    Humming some more as the trainers screamed and burned, agony filling their voices and melting faces.

    ¡°That¡¯ll teach you.¡± He said, two bursts of brief flame shooting out of his nostrils as the stress left his body.

    ¡°Arceus save us¡­what have you done?¡± Goldie exclaimed, rushing to the river-side where Mightyrizard lay, watching the trainers each fall dead and burnt to a crisp.

    ¡°In a world we must defend, our courage will pull us through.¡± Mightyrizard mused.

    ¡°Yo ma boyz, how goes the fishing, got ya¡¯all some soda to-¡± A voice then announced as a fifth trainer walked out from the forest to their left.

    Freezing in place at the sight, the boy immediately dropped the large bottle of soda.

    Eyes going wide, skin pale and pants wetting with piss.

    He shook, his entire body trembled as the blood left his face.

    As Mightyrizard¡¯s crimson eyes met his shaky gaze.

    ¡°What¡­the bloody fuck-¡± He began to say, when the monster before him took a step turning towards him.

    ¡°Oi! What are you doing!? They¡¯ll send people after us you know!¡± Goldie warned him, ¡°Fuck, the popo will already be on our asses with all this¡­¡±

    Mightyrizard simply chuckled, ¡°You know what they say.¡±

    ¡°Fuck the police?¡± Goldie attempted.

    ¡°Well...yeah that, but-¡± A black blaze swirled about his fangs once again, right then the boy turned tail and ran.

    ¡°Gotta catch them all.¡±

    Darkness sprouted onto the forest, engulfing the boy whole, and leaving nothing but burnt remains.

    Goldie sighed, "Well there goes the hood." as he watched a half Charizard half Mightyena chug a whole bottle of soda in one breath.

 Ch 5 - Deep Water

    ¡°So, let me get this straight.¡± Goldie sighed as it lay floating upside down before Ditto who stood on the sandy beach. ¡°You have the ability to transform into the fusion of two pokemon you see.¡±

    ¡°Seems like it.¡± Ditto agreed.

    ¡°And if one is an evolution closer to final, the other¡¯s appearance and abilities will be too.¡± Goldie continued.

    ¡°Yeap, that last one told me as much.¡± Ditto added.

    ¡°That¡¯s¡­insane.¡± Goldie mused.

    ¡°It is insane.¡± Ditto agreed.

    ¡°But you have to be able to see two pokemon?¡± Goldie asked.

    ¡°Apparently, and the times I see them can¡¯t be too far apart.¡± Ditto added.

    ¡°How do you know that?¡± Goldie asked as it spun back around.

    ¡°I just tried to transform into a Shiny Magikarp Charizard.¡± Ditto admitted with a dejected sigh.

    Goldie face-finned, ¡°Where the muk did you even come from? Oh no, let me guess. Crazy scientist experimentation? Some insane clash of two super powered pokemon? How-¡±

    ¡°I choked to death on a stick, in a different world, then woke up here.¡± Ditto casually explained.

    Goldie¡¯s mouth hung open.

    ¡°Although I guess, Dittos did come from crazy scientists experimenting on super powered pokemon¡­¡± Ditto then mused.

    ¡°Hah,¡± Goldie broke out laughing, ¡°You had me, aight seriously, where the fuck you from homie?¡±

    ¡°I¡­wasn¡¯t joking.¡± Ditto replied.

    Goldie¡¯s eyes narrowed, ¡°What pokemon experimentation did the Dittos come from?¡± it asked.

    ¡°Mew Two, funded by Team Rocket.¡± Ditto answered.

    ¡°Wooooohhh, fuck me, seriously?¡± Goldie exclaimed.

    ¡°Seriously.¡± Ditto reiterated.

    ¡°Wait, how the fuck do you know tha-¡± Goldie asked.

    And Ditto entered a rant that spanned over an hour.

    Explaining that, the world they were in now, was perceived as a multi-billion-industry of games, tv shows, toys and many many other things.

    Half the hour was spent trying to make Goldie accept it as truth, and the last five minutes slapping the shit out of it to pull it out of its existential-crisis of a daze.

    ¡°Alright! Alrigh-Fuck sto-NIGG-¡± Goldie struggled against a mixture of Oddish and Tentacool, finally slipping out of the viney tentacles, it splashed water into the Oddcool¡¯s face. ¡°HIT, ME, ONE, MORE-" The golden Magikarp exclaimed in a very threatening voice.

    Ditto was too busy continuing the lyrics, ¡°Hit me baby one more time~¡±This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

    ¡°Goddamn tim-Wait what?¡± Goldie asked in confusion.

    ¡°Oh shit sorry, I have a tendency to quote or continue song lyrics, my bad. What were you saying?¡± Ditto asked back.

    ¡°You¡­Forget it. Enjoy life, death, after life? Whatever homie, just don¡¯t get yourself shot and peep out my name aight?¡± Goldie then said, turning about to leave.

    ¡°Woah woah, where you going?¡± Ditto then asked.

    ¡°Fuck away from you that¡¯s where.¡± Goldie said, beginning to swim away faster then.

    ¡°Oh come on, you¡¯re the only fucker that hasn¡¯t tried to kill me or fuck me yet!¡± Ditto transformed again, a mixture of a Magikarp and a Caterpie, the Caterkarp gave the Shiny Magikarp chase. ¡°Come on brother, do you wanna stay in this shit hole forever? I just got revived in a fucking pokemon world! Let¡¯s go on an adventure!¡±

    ¡°You just fucking murdered five bitches! Brother? Hell nah!¡± Goldie exclaimed, rushing away from the singing Caterkarp which was surprisingly catching up.

    ¡°Baby come back! You can blame it all on me!¡±

    ¡°Fuck yeah I am!¡± Goldie responded as Caterkarp finally caught up, wrapping its vine-staches around its tail.

    ¡°Give me the chance to make you see!¡± Caterkarp continued to badly speak the lyrics.

    ¡°I see your bitch ass hold my tail in the deep wa-Oh fuck¡¯a¡¯ditto.¡± Goldie then realized, they had wandered into deep waters.

    ¡°Trying to keep up the smile that hi-¡± Caterkarp continued, but was shut up by Goldie as its tail slapped hard into his face.

    ¡°Shut your trap!¡± Goldie grumbled under its breath, ¡°We need to get the fuck out of here¡­¡±

    ¡°Huh? What? Why?¡± The now returned to a green Ditto, Ditto asked.

    ¡°Oh no, it¡¯s too late¡­¡± Goldie mused, its tone falling dark as it gazed off into the deeper depths.

    Ditto followed its gaze, ¡°Huh?¡±

    ¡­

    ¡°Oh.¡±

    The deep dark depths were growing blue, mixed in were hundreds of dim red lights.

    ¡°Oh no.¡±

    More and more of the darkness below was filling with this sight.

    ¡°Oh bloody hell no.¡±

    ¡°Swim!¡±

    The depths rose up towards them¡­in the shape¡­

    In the shape of a swarm of Tentacools.

    So many Tentacools¡­

    So many god damn Tentacools that they blotted out the darkness of the deep.

    Quickly transforming into a Magicool, both he and Goldie swam for their dear lives.

    ¡°Fuck this shit I¡¯m out!¡± Goldie exclaimed in panic.

    ¡°Mhm! No thanks!¡± Magicool added, ¡°Excuse me please!¡± He said as they both hit the surface, taking a deep breath before glancing at one another. ¡°So, deep water.¡±

    ¡°Deep water man.¡± Goldie agreed.

    When suddenly the water surface all around them exploded, as the mass of tentacools rose up from beneath them.

    Firing out of the water like rockets, they surfaced from each and every direction, causing Magicool and Goldie to swim about in terror.

    Screaming at the top of their lungs each time a tentacool surfaced in their path, they bumped into one another¡¯s back two to three times before meeting each other¡¯s eyes.

    And screamed even louder.

    Briefly the apocalypse ended.

    ¡°Everything that goes up¡­¡± Magicool mused then.

    ¡°Comes back dow-Fuuck that!¡± Goldie added.

    Glancing up, they both saw the rain of tentacools above them.

    Falling.

    Back.

    Down.

    ¡°Run.¡± Magicool said.

    ¡°Do I look like a fucking Rattata to you!?¡± Goldie snapped back as both turned tail and swam as fast as their bodies could take them. ¡°Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!¡±

    ¡°Nope!¡± Magicool said as he avoided the first tentacool crashing into the water surface before him, ¡°Alright then!¡±

    Putting his two tentacles together, Magicool began spinning them. ¡°Don¡¯t mind me!¡±, pushing into the back of Goldie, the both of them shot forth at top speed.

    Crashing into the beach, Ditto turned back to his slimy green form, pulling their heads out from under the sand they looked at one another.

    ¡°I don¡¯t know what the fuck just happened, but I don¡¯t really care.¡± Goldie said.

    ¡°Oh damn you know the lyrics?¡± Ditto asked.

    ¡°No you moron!¡± Goldie exclaimed, grabbing Ditto¡¯s face with its fins, ¡°I can¡¯t fucking breath to care!¡± It exclaimed, eyes wide and turning bloody red as it gasped for air.

    Goldie was choking from lack of breathable water as Ditto quickly began dragging its fat Magikarp ass back into the water, seven meters away from their landing site.

    When it hit the shallows, Goldie took in a deep exasperated breath.

    ¡°Oh good lord Aceus I thought I was giving birth.¡± Goldie gasped.

    ¡°Pfft, you gonna need the equipment for that first!¡± Ditto chuckled.

    ¡°Bitch what you think I am?¡± Goldie then asked with narrowed eyes.

    ¡°Huh?¡± Ditto wasn¡¯t following.

    ¡°DO.YOU.FEEL.A.PENIS?¡± Goldie asked word by word as if talking to someone stupid.

    ¡°You¡­Oh, OH.¡± Ditto realized what she meant.

    Then unwrapped his tentacles from around her, awkwardly backing away right after.

 Ch 6 - The Heist

    ¡°Give me one reason, I should go with you on this supposed ¡®adventure¡¯.¡± Goldie grumbled as she floated before Ditto.

    ¡°Uhh, you¡¯re shiny so you must be part of the epic tale I¡¯m about to start?¡± Ditto mused with a slimy shrug.

    ¡°Wa¡­¡± At those words Goldie¡¯s eyes went blood red.

    ¡°Oh you shouldn¡¯t have said that.¡± Said one nearby Magikarp.

    ¡°He said it! He said it!¡± Exclaimed another, ¡°The taboo word!¡±

    ¡°Take cover! She about to blow!¡± The Magikarps scattered.

    That¡¯s when Goldie, began to flail like there was no tomorrow. Slapping the living shit out of Ditto with her tail as she trashed about. ¡°YOU UNGRATEFUL LITTLE SHIT, YOU WANT ME TO COME WITH YOU JUST CAUSE I¡¯M SHINY!? SO MUCH FOR THE GRAND ACT YOU DID KILLING THOSE SELFISH TRAINERS! YOU¡¯RE NO BETTER THAN THEY ARE, ARE YOU, YOU FUCKWAD!? YEAH IT¡¯S ALWAYS THAT! JUST CAUSE I¡¯M SHINY, FUCKING SHINY, THEY ALL AFTER THIS GOLD ASS! WELL FUCK YOU WHORE, I AIN¡¯T GOING NO-¡±

    ¡°I was joking! I was joking!¡± Ditto begged as he held the Magikarp by the tail and away from his beat-up face.

    ¡°JOKING!? HAH! JOKING WERE YOU! YOUR LIFE IS A JOKE YOU SLIMY DICKBUTT, I MEAN REALLY, DYING TO CHOKING ON A STICK? DOES IT GET ANY MORE-¡± Goldie didn¡¯t take it any better¡­

    ¡°I want a shiny Gyarados on my team!¡± Ditto then exclaimed, holding Goldie with as many tentacles as his slimy body could muster.

    ¡°YEAH NO SHI-Gyarados?¡± Goldie then paused, ¡°I¡¯m a Magikarp.¡±

    ¡°Holy shit you calmed down finally, yeah bitch I can help you evolve!¡± Ditto then added with a sigh of relief.

    ¡°Oh, why didn¡¯t you just say that in the first place?¡± Goldie asked with narrowed eyes.

    ¡°You¡­but I¡­Haha¡­Good point.¡± Ditto grumbled to himself, tentatively letting Goldie go.

    ¡°Alright shithead, how we going about this? You got some special power to help me with that? I¡¯ve gone through a lot of shit, more than any Magikarp here yet I still never evolved. Pretty much thinking it¡¯s impossible for some shallows-threading cowards.¡± Goldie explained dejectedly.

    ¡°Hey! We hunt seaweed! It¡¯s scary at night and makes weird shadows in day!¡± One Magikarp argued.

    ¡°Shut the fuck up Tucker.¡± Goldie snapped back, ¡°Well? What we doing. Find some strange shiny rock? Kiss you? Eat some weird concoction? Swim up a waterfall?¡±

    ¡°Nah nah, none of that.¡± Ditto answered by shaking his tentacles.

    ¡°Ah.¡± Goldie said with a mildly disappointed tone.

    ¡°We will need something though, and if I¡¯m right, that town back there is Pallet Town?¡± Ditto asked.

    ¡°Yeah, sure.¡± Goldie answered, ¡°It is.¡±

    ¡°Awesome, that means Professor Oak works there.¡± Ditto mused.

    ¡°That crazy ass scientist dude? Yeah, mother fucker does.¡± Goldie said with a chuckle, ¡°Loves the town actually, doubt he¡¯ll ever leave.¡±

    ¡°We¡¯ll need something from his lab¡­Wait why¡¯s that?¡± Ditto then asked as he mumbled to himself, ¡°Ah doesn¡¯t matter, anyway we¡¯ll need to sneak our way inside and come back out unseen.¡±

    ¡°Ahem¡­.¡± Goldie pointed with her fin to her tail. ¡°Fish, remember?¡±

    ¡°Ah, right. Guess this will be a solo mission.¡± Ditto mused before beginning to look around, ¡°So I¡¯ll need a mixture of the two sneakiest pokemon around.¡±

    Glancing about the water, sky and trees, Ditto counted a few pokemon he could give a try. Between the several Pidgeys hanging about the tree branches, alongside some Hoothoots, Spinaraks and Wurmples. He finally caught a glance at a very small and sneaky pokemon trudging its way through the grass, out of sight of all of the above.

    A Rattata was sneaking through the forest¡¯s foliage, and Ditto came up with a plan.

    <hr>

    Date; Unknown ¨C Time; Probably a few hours past noon, Ditto smells wine bottles opening.

    Place; Pallet Town in the Kanto region.

    Target; Professor Oak¡¯s laboratory.

    <hr>

    ¡°Okay so, the Oak man leaves his little lab a few hours after noon, plus no new trainers go to his place after that cause they know he isn¡¯t around.¡± Goldie began to explain as she and Ditto lay hidden in the river right by the town.

    Well, not exactly Ditto anymore.

    Next to Goldie stood a purple winged rat thing, the outcome of fusing a Pidgey and a Rattata together. Smaller than the average Pidgey, this creature had the bonus of being small, having wings and a really good nose.

    ¡°But?¡± Rattadgey asked, ¡°I sense a but coming.¡±

    ¡°But, some people still hang about the lab at times. His aides, usually about one or two.¡± Goldie answered.

    ¡°Okay, look out for two people, roger.¡± Rattadgey mused, ¡°So is he out yet?¡±

    ¡°Mother fucker is walking out the door right now actually.¡± Goldie pointed out.

    Just as she said so, a man looking in his fifties walked out the laboratory¡¯s door. Stretching his arms up before fixing up his labcoat, Oak took in a deep breath. ¡°Ah, no more little shits running about town making me have to sneak about! A man is free to do what a man does!¡± He mused to himself, glancing about the little town.

    ¡°Let¡¯s see¡­where to start from¡­Remy and Jackal¡¯s maybe? That one¡¯s got moves¡­Or maybe Chris¡¯s over in Route 1, she¡¯s always up for anything¡­¡± He mumbled to himself as he walked down to the right.

    Goldie and Rattadgey dove lower into the water as he did.

    Taking two more rights before coming up to the one house right behind his lab. ¡°Ah, of course, Ashley¡¯s.¡± Oak grinned widely.

    ¡°What¡¯s he doing?¡± Rattadgey mused.

    ¡°I don¡¯t really know, he usually goes into the forest and sneaks around town avoiding the road before sneaking through the windows of one of the houses.¡± Goldie mused.

    ¡°Wait¡­What?!¡± Rattadgey exclaimed in a surprised whisper, as both turned to see Oak knock on the door.

    ¡°You have about ten minutes.¡± Goldie said.

    <hr>

    ¡°Oh Oak¡­you mother fucker¡­¡± Rattadgey sighed before rushing out of the river, he flapped his wings once clearing the water off his feathers before soaring into the air.

    Gliding about the Laboratory, he watched as the door opened for Oak, before two feminine hands grabbed his coat and quickly pulled him in. Shutting the door behind him.

    Shaking his head, Rattadgey glided down to the back of the lab where one window lay half open.

    Here goes!

    He thought to himself, landing underneath the window, he then slammed his back to the wall and looked carefully to either side.

    Clear!

    Quickly he rushed up to the windowsill, grabbing hold with his left foot before hanging off it upside down.

    He took a sniff of the air, sensing the scent of what lay inside.

    Recognising the entire laboratory¡¯s shape, Rattadgey sensed a single person within.

    And they weren¡¯t looking in the direction of the window.

    He raised himself up, leaping through the window and into the lab, quickly he then rushed forth to hide under the table he knew was there.

    Rattadgey then looked about, seeing the short, thin and nerdy Lab Aide going about cleaning.

    And whining.

    ¡°Gah, that bastard, always leaves the dirty work to me. Sure, the rest are free to go about their fucking research, just gotta observe those kids he obviously wanted out of the way.¡± The Aide grumbled under his breath as he dusted the library.

    Seeing that the man was busy, Rattadgey began to concoct his strategy.

    Preparing the bunch of sand he had been keeping in his right foot, he planned to blind the man with sand attack and confuse him, leading him then to the window before using whirlwind to push him out of it.

    Then, it was a matter of simply locking everything up, and he¡¯d have the entire lab for himself to search.

    What he didn¡¯t plan for, was a knock at the door.

    ¡°Who the fuck is it now?¡± The Aide grumbled, putting down the duster before moving to the door. Opening it, he was faced with a wide grinning girl. ¡°You¡¯re late, he¡¯s gone out to¡­the forest.¡± The Aide lied.

    ¡°Aw come on Connor! I just gotta grab my first pokemon and I¡¯ll be heading out! Please oh please!¡± The girl begged. ¡°I¡¯ll even clean up what you got left to clean! You know you want to go out fishing with your buds from Viridian, I know they¡¯re in the neighborhood today¡­¡±

    Connor sighed, ¡°Fine you, dust up the library, clean the table and then¡­THEN¡­you can take a pick at what pokemon is left.¡±

    ¡°Awesome! Where is it!?¡± She asked with great excitement.

    ¡°In the incubator machine, still in its pokeball. Don¡¯t touch anything else, got it?¡± Connor grumbled, grabbing his coat off the hanger, he put it on before walking past her. Handing her the keys, ¡°Lock up before you leave and give the keys to your mom. Oak will pro-I¡¯ll tell him about it.¡±

    ¡°Sick! Thanks again M¡¯Connor!¡± She exclaimed after him as he left.

    ¡°Yeah, yeah.¡±

    Turning about and rushing inside, the girl shut the door behind herself before scanning the large room. ¡°Incubator machine¡­¡± She mused to herself, ignoring the duster and dropping the key off on the table as she walked by it.

    Rattadgey mentally swore, but the plan hadn¡¯t changed yet.

    Waiting for the right moment, he watched as the girl walked up to a strange machine with a single pokeball inside.

    ¡°Well so much for choosing¡­Guess I HAVE to choose you huh?¡± She mused to herself, opening the glass case and reaching inside, she grasped the pokeball. ¡°Now let¡¯s see, what you are!¡± She said, stepping around the machine, she threw the ball.

    Almost hitting the computer screen, it landed on the desk next to it and it opened, flashing out a burst of light.

    As the light faded, the pokemon that lay within was revealed.

    ¡°No¡­You¡¯ve got to be fucking with me!¡± The girl said with wide surprised eyes.

    ¡°Pichu? Chu!¡± The Pichu said as their eyes met.

    ¡°You¡¯re bloody adorable!¡± The girl exclaimed, rushing the Pichu to grab hold of it.

    A fatal mistake, Rattadgey thought, as the sight of her charging him made the Pichu panic.

    A thunder shock left the Pichu¡¯s cheeks, electrocuting the girl on site.

    And as the light show went on, Rattadgey simply watched in disbelief.

    On finishing the girl off, Pichu ran up to her paralyzed body.

    ¡°Pichu?¡± Slapping her face a few times, it then shrugged before running back over to its pokeball, opening it and allowing itself to be pulled back inside in another flash of light.

    ¡°Well, that works, I guess.¡± Rattadgey mused, shrugging to himself before flying up to the table. ¡°I¡¯ll be taking this, thank you very much.¡± Dropping the sand and grabbing hold of the key, he figured it¡¯d be much easier to search the entire lab later that night for any other stuff he might want to take.

    But right now he was searching for a single object of interest.

    And his search began, as he looked through drawer after drawer.

    Closet after closet.

    Finding all sorts of stuff, from different pokeballs, support items, drugs even, and a few spare Pokedexes he swore to come back for.

    Finally, his search bore fruit, as he opened up one set of drawers to find the thing he had been looking for.

    Grabbing hold of the EXP. All, Rattadgey grinned widely.

    This will do the job.

    He thought, when the sound of movement came from behind him.

    ¡°Little shit¡­what was that for!¡± The girl grumbled as she rose up from the ground, relieved of her paralysis.

    Rattadgey panicked then, he had the item and the key, now he just needed to get the hell out without being seen.

    So he did what any other pokemon stealing from a lab but is about to get caught would do.

    He rushed back under the table and hid.

    Window¡­Window¡­right, right the window!

    He thought to himself, waiting for the opportune moment to make a run for it.

    He watched as the girl returned to the pokeball, throwing it once more, ¡°Come out you!¡± She exclaimed as it landed inbetween the window and the table.

    Pichu once more appearing out of the ball, the pokemon glanced about in confusion.

    Coming to stare directly into Rattadgey¡¯s ever-widening eyes.

    Oh fuck.

    Rattadgey waited to be electrocuted just like how the girl had, but instead the Pichu just looked him over with curiosity.

    ¡°Chu?¡± It seemingly tried to communicate with him, but Rattadgey had no clue what it was saying.

    ¡°Oi, come here, what do you see something under the table?¡± The girl asked, but the Pichu ignored her.

    Instead, its curiosity took hold.

    The Pichu approached Rattadgey, going under the table itself and out of the girl¡¯s sight.

    ¡°Oh so we playing hide and seek now, fine, guess I¡¯ll count to ten and come find you!¡± The girl exclaimed with a sigh, actually closing her eyes and beginning to slowly count up.

    Rattadgey did his best to hide the key under his foot and the EXP. All under his wing. ¡°Hey little guy¡­how¡¯s it going?¡± He whispered in as low a voice as he could manage, causing the Pichu to take a surprised step back.

    ¡°Hey hey hey, I ain¡¯t gonna hurt you. You curious of what I am right, come on up, take a good look. Weird aren¡¯t I?¡± Rattadgey said in as friendly a tone he could manage.

    The Pichu, did just that.

    Rushing over to the strange Pokemon, it began looking him over with great curiosity.

    Fuck it, curiosity killed the ca-rat!

    Rattadgey then thought as he set his mind on transforming, hoping he could copy a singular Pokemon.

    What came out though, was something else entirely.

    The Pichu watched with sparkling eyes full of fantasy, as the bird-rat thing transformed into a Pichu.

    A Pichu on four legs, with a much longer tail but shorter ears.

    It was confused, but very much entertained, playfully tapping the Pittata¡¯s cheeks then.

    Pittata did the same.

    ¡°Chu! Pichu chu!¡± The Pichu looked very happy to have a similar friend.

    Well.

    Until that is.

    Until the Pittata was no longer playfully tapping its cheeks, but instead choking the crap out of it.

    Wrapping his tail around the Pichu¡¯s neck, Pittata then tripped it back and rose ontop of it, holding it down. He kept its mouth closed shut with both front paws whilst holding its legs down with his hind-legs.

    ¡°Shhshushushush! Now go to sleep bitch!¡± He whispered, ¡°Die, motherfucker die!¡±

    Out of breath, the Pichu quickly passed out as Pittata frantically looked around.

    ¡°Seven, Eight, Nine¡­¡± The girl was still counting.

    Letting go of the unconscious pokemon, he then looked himself over.

    Here goes nothing¡­

    He thought as he took both items and hid them in his back paws, before stepping out into the open.

    ¡°Ten! Oh, you¡¯re not hiding.¡± The girl mused as she saw him standing by the pokeball, ¡°Oh god, you¡¯ve been staring at me like I¡¯m an idiot haven¡¯t you?¡± She figured, turning mildly red.

    ¡°Y-Pichu¡­?¡± Pittata almost fucked up.

    ¡°Whatever, you ready to go on an adventure Pichu?¡± She then asked.

    ¡°Chu!¡± Pittata exclaimed, nodding aggressively.

    Bitch just take me outta here!

    ¡°Alright let¡¯s get you back in your pokeball then!¡± She said, walking up to him.

    Nope, fuck no, nope.

    Pittata thought, as he suddenly smacked the pokeball away with his tail. Turning back to her, he shook his head.

    ¡°Oh you don¡¯t like it in there! It¡¯s fine, you can hang on my shoulder and make me look sick!¡± The girl exclaimed, bending over and forwarding her hand. ¡°My name¡¯s Ashley, nice to meet you!¡± She said as Pittata quickly rushed up her arm, not wanting her to get too close a look.

    ¡°Pichu chu!¡± He continued to try to copy the Pichu¡¯s sounds.

    ¡°Off we go then!¡± Ashely exclaimed, walking right past the now empty table, she headed straight for the door.

    Not to mention she didn¡¯t notice the key is missing, but come on, cut that guy some slack chika¡­

    Pittata grumbled to himself as they exited the lab, Ashley stretched out her arms wide.

    ¡°Ah! Do you smell it! Adventure shouts our names!¡± She said with great excitement.

    Actually I smell people but okay babe whatever you say¡­Wait, people.

    Realizing he had sensed others nearby, Pittata turned about just in time to see a flash of light and grey smoke.

    Flying past them just by the nick of a few centimeters, the rocket blasted into the next house over, exploding and utterly destroying the front of it.

    ¡°Prepare for trouble!¡± Said a voice from where the attack had come from.

    ¡°And make it double!¡± Added another voice.

    Oh hell no.

 Ch 7 - R

    ¡°Prepare for trouble!¡±

    ¡°And make it double!¡±

    Two voices sang out from the forest as suddenly a Weezing burst out a smoke screen, blinding Ashley and Pittata.

    ¡°To protect the world from devastation!¡± A voice said from creepily nearby to Pittata, both he and Ashley freezing on the spot as a gun appeared out of the smoke, aimed directly at Ashley¡¯s head. Long bright purple hair sparkling as it flowed, followed by crimson eyes, the woman wore a cropped white shirt with long black sleeves and gloves, a white skirt and long black tights with just as black boots.

    ¡°To unite all peoples within our nation!¡± Then spoke out the male voice, as the smoke screen dissipated, revealing him to be reloading a rocket launcher. Medium cut bright blue hair and green eyes, the man wore a similarly cropped white shirt with black gloves, a black undershirt, white pants and black shoes.

    Both had a large light red R on their chests.

    ¡°To denounce the evils of truth and love!¡±

    While Ashley froze from terror, Pittata cringed.

    ¡°To extend our reach to the stars above!¡±

    Until his mind caught up with the reality of the matter.

    ¡°Jessie!¡± Jessie was holding a gun.

    ¡°James!¡± James was holding a rocket launcher.

    These two things snapped him out of his cringe, these two weren¡¯t fucking around.

    And as an Arbok appeared out of Jessie¡¯s free hand, coming to entangled itself around Ashley who fell to the ground unable to move.

    James was done reloading, taking aim at Ashley¡¯s house once more.

    ¡°No!¡± Ashley exclaimed, as all briefly glimpsed the sight of Professor Oak putting his pants back on. ¡°Prof¡­essor?¡±

    ¡°Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!¡± Jessie exclaimed, and James pulled the trigger.

    The rocket was quick to reach the building, blowing off the top this time around and collapsing it entirely.

    ¡°Surrender now, or prepare to fight!¡± James warned, as out of nowhere appeared a Meowth.

    ¡°Meowth! That¡¯s right!¡± Meowth said, extending long sharp claws to Pittata¡¯s throat as he recuperated from falling off Ashley¡¯s shoulder.

    ¡°Hohohohoho~¡± Jessie laughed, ¡°Such an old fool! Finally we found where you keep all those pokemon your trainers catch!¡±

    ¡°Haha! Indeed!¡± James also chuckled, turning to the Laboratory, ¡°It took a fair bit of planning but, nothing can stand in our way now!¡±

    ¡°Hell yeah! All those already trained pokemon just waiting to be snatched away!¡± Meowth exclaimed. ¡°Imagine the boss¡¯s face when we come back with an army!¡±

    ¡°All for that¡­¡± Ashley mused as she lay on the ground, ¡°You killed¡­You killed!¡± Rage filled her eyes as she trembled.

    ¡°Of course, we killed that oaf of a professor, for the good of and only of Team Rocket!¡± Meowth said with a chuckle, ¡°What¡¯s it to you? That old fart was banging your mother whenever he got the chance behind your back.¡±

    ¡°Kekeke, bet he was just at it right then too!¡± Jessie added with a chuckle.

    ¡°Uhh, guys, doesn¡¯t that mean we blew her mother up too?¡± James then asked.

    ¡°Eh probably.¡± Jessie agreed.

    ¡°Heh guess it does have something to do-¡± Meowth began to say but was cut off as Ashley suddenly began to scream and shout.

    Struggling against the Arbok, her voice painfully filled their ears.

    ¡°Ah! Shut up already!¡± Jessie exclaimed, pointing her gun down at Ashley.

    The screaming suddenly stopped then, as Ashley¡¯s body went still.

    ¡°She¡­passed out?¡± James mused.Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.

    ¡°Phewy, good damn thing she did! She was about to blow my ear drums out!¡± Meowth grumbled, ¡°What should we do with her?¡±

    ¡°Not wasting a bullet on this brat I¡¯ll let you know,¡± Jessie added, ¡°But we don¡¯t want any witnesses.¡±

    ¡°Haha! I¡¯ll take care of them then!¡± Meowth said, glancing down at his claws, his eyes then narrowed. ¡°Wait, the hell? Where¡¯d the twerp go!?¡±

    ¡°You were supposed to be watching it!¡° Jessie exclaimed.

    ¡°Can it bitch! It was right here!¡± Meowth shouted back.

    ¡°Ah, you see, that¡¯s where you fucked up.¡± Spoke a voice from behind them, and the three turned away from the lab to find it.

    Claws, gun and rocket aimed, they were faced with a very strange Pichu.

    ¡°Meowth¡­d-did that thing just talk?¡± Jessie asked.

    ¡°Do you have cousins we don¡¯t know of?¡± James asked.

    ¡°DO ME AND THAT THING LOOK RELATED!?¡± Meowth spat back.

    ¡°You know, I didn¡¯t watch too much of the anime, but I do remember a few things.¡± Pitatta mused as it rose onto its hind legs. ¡°You guys are a constant pain in the ass, so, perfect timing.¡± A wide fanged grin grew on his face. ¡°I¡¯ll get rid of you now that I have a chance, with as you just said, zero witnesses.¡±

    ¡°Twerp talks big!¡± Meowth snarled.

    ¡°Hah, guess you are worth wasting a bullet on!¡± Jessie then mused, suddenly pulling her trigger.

    Quickly Pitatta¡¯s form changed as he dropped his transformation, returning to his green Ditto form.

    The bullet shot right through him, exiting on the other side with ease before impaling itself into the ground.

    A hole was clearly visible on the green Ditto where it hit, but slowly as they watched the hole began to close back up.

    ¡°I knew it, you guys don¡¯t usually use guns because they are ineffective against too many pokemon.¡± Ditto mused, ¡°Me included.¡±

    ¡°S-S-Shut up!¡± James exclaimed in a panic, readied up with a new rocket, he took aim.

    ¡°Shit James no-¡±

    ¡°This is gonna hurt!-¡±

    James fired, and within a matter of moments the rocket hit the ground where Ditto stood, about twenty feet away.

    Blowing Meowth, Jessie, James and their pokemon off their feet¡­hovering bodies? They were sent flying back into the Lab¡¯s wall.

    Once the smoke cleared, Team Rocket pulled themselves together, facing where Ditto once stood.

    A small crater now lay before them, and not a single bit of green sludge was in sight.

    ¡°Hah-Cough-Haha! So much for the big talk!¡± James exclaimed, his face now tanned and his hair and cloths singed alongside everyone else.

    As both Jessie and Meowth grabbed him by the collar, glaring murder into him.

    ¡°You could have killed us you dimwit!¡± Jessie shouted into his ear.

    ¡°Think before you shoot! Think! T.H.I¡­Think!¡± Meowth also screamed angrily.

    ¡°N.K.¡± James then said, ¡°It¡¯s T.h.i.n.k.¡±

    ¡°Oh thanks mat-THAT DOESN¡¯T MATTER YOU DIPSHIT!¡± Meowth snapped, scratching the shit outta James¡¯ face before turning to stomp towards the lab.

    ¡°Heyy! At least I got it!¡± James added, tearing up as he held his now ruined face.

    ¡°Not, quite.¡± Then spoke out a familiar voice from above, and all of them looked up.

    Looming over them from the Lab¡¯s roof, was a massive purple serpent. Half Arbok and half Gyarados, Ardos growled as its pitch-black eyes settled on them, narrowing murderously.

    ¡°Oh no¡­¡± Jessie sighed.

    ¡°Dark!¡± A black aura rose up to surround Ardos.

    ¡°This is gonna hurt much worse isn¡¯t it?¡± James mused.

    ¡°Rage!¡± As its eyes went bright violet.

    ¡°Not so fast!¡± Meowth then exclaimed, suddenly putting his claws to Ashley¡¯s throat. ¡°One more move and I¡¯ll gut your friend!¡±

    Ardos growled, ¡°And what makes you think that will stop me?¡±

    ¡°I¡¯m still standing here, aren¡¯t I?¡± Meowth then said with a smirk.

    Dammit, I can¡¯t, she hasn¡¯t done anything wrong¡­Gah.

    The dark aura dissipated from around Ardos then, but his eyes remained a fearsome violet. ¡°Speak your terms.¡±

    ¡°Easy, we¡¯ll let her live, if you turn yourself in!¡± Meowth exclaimed, nudging Jessie¡¯s leg.

    ¡°What? Oh, oh right!¡± Realizing what he was up to, Jessie took out an empty pokeball. ¡°Go pokeball!¡± She shouted, preparing to throw when¡­

    ¡°Nope.¡± Ardos said as his irises shrunk, suddenly turning about he slithered off the building. ¡°Fuck all that! I''m yiggitying the fuck outta here!¡± He exclaimed, rushing off into the river and disappearing from sight.

    ¡°Huh, didn¡¯t expect¡­that.¡± Meowth mused.

    When an eerie aura dawned upon them all.

    Meowth looked down, and Ashley was no longer within Arbok¡¯s hold.

    ¡°Something is behind us¡­isn¡¯t it?¡± James whined in defeat.

    ¡°Hah, jolly good show getting the jump on me lads.¡± Professor Oak said, coming out from under the rubble as a Kadabra dropped the rocks it had psychically raised. ¡°But robbing me, isn¡¯t going to be that easy. I am the guardian of all of Kanto champion¡¯s pokemon after all!¡± Oak laughed, as Team Rocket turned around further.

    Finding themselves faced with what terrified Ardos into running off.

    ¡°Do I destroy them, master¡¯s sensei?¡± Mew Two asked as he gently lowered Ashley to the ground.

    Team Rocket went ghostly pale.

    ¡°Yes yes, take out the trash please.¡± Oak said.

    Mew Two huffed in acknowledgement, as it put its two hands together. ¡°Shadow Ball.¡±

    A sphere of the darkest black formed in between its palms.

    ¡°I really don¡¯t know what you were thinking, I mean, who do you think the strongest trainers to come out from here left their legendary pokemon with?¡± Oak then mused, chuckling wildly as behind him Kadabra helped a woman out.

    ¡°Begone.¡± Mew Two exclaimed, blasting forth its attack.

    Landing a direct hit on Weezing as it rose to shield its masters, the pokemon flew back into the ground and bounced off into them all.

    Sending Team Rocket¡­

    ¡°Looks like Team Rocket is blasting off again!¡± Each of them exclaimed in surprise, as they disappeared into the sky.

    Nothing but a shine remaining where they once could be seen.

    ¡°They got away.¡± Mew Two growled.

    ¡°No matter, they won¡¯t come back after that.¡± Oak said, glancing off then to the river. ¡°That pokemon¡­I¡¯ve never seen anything like it.¡±

    ¡°I sensed a connection with it.¡± Mew Two added.

    ¡°Oh Oak! That was terrifying!¡± The half-naked woman exclaimed, grabbing hold of Oak¡¯s arm and pressing her voluptuous breasts to it.

    Oak suddenly pushed her off, a gleam in his eyes as he stared into the river. ¡°Begone hoe! Adventure calls my name and discovery awaits for no milf! But worry not, my onyx shall return to you shortly!¡± He exclaimed.

    Mew Two simply face-palmed and sighed.

 Ch 8 - First Catch!

    ¡°WHAT IN THE MUK HAPPENED THERE!?¡± Goldie exclaimed as she swam of downstream, Ditto holding on to her back for dear life.

    ¡°THEY WERE TRYING TO KILL ME! THEY WERE TRYING TO FUCKING KILL ME! THEN MEW TWO! A FUCKING MEW TWO SHOWED UP! OAK HAS A FUCKING MEW TWO!¡± Ditto screamed through the water as bubbles rushed out of his mouth, beady eyes wide and shaking. ¡°TEAM ROCKET WAS TRYING TO KILL ME! OAK IS A MOTHER FUCKER! MEW TWO WAS GONNA KILL ME! WHAT THE FUCK! WHAT THE FUCK!?¡±

    ¡°OKAY OKAY!¡± Goldie slowly came to a stop where the beach started, ¡°Get off!¡± She said, spinning about and throwing Ditto off. ¡°Slowly man, what happened?¡± She asked.

    ¡°Okay okay!¡± Ditto took in a deep watery breath, before unleashing himself. ¡°SoIsnuckintothelabthenthisbitchcameinforherstarterandIhadtotakeitoutofcommisionand-¡±

    Goldie just blinked and stared.

    ¡°IcopieditbarelyandtriedtoactlikeitthebitchactuallybeleiveditsowesetoffbutthenteamrocketshowedupandtriedtokillusthenMEWTWOSHOWEDUPAND-¡±

    Goldie slapped him, causing Ditto to suddenly start screaming and gushing out all the water he previously breathed in, so she back-slapped him.

    Rising to the surface and taking in another deep breath, ¡°Holy shit I needed that, okay, alright¡­Phew-¡±

    Goldie slapped him again.

    ¡°I¡¯m calm! The fuck was that for!?¡± Ditto asked.

    ¡°Better safe than sorry.¡± Goldie reasoned.

    ¡°You¡­Aight, k, good point. Anyway, I got it!¡± Ditto then exclaimed, pulling two items out of the sludge that made up its body.

    Causing Goldie to squirm and cringe, ¡°What¡­are those?¡±

    Ditto raised the key, ¡°This will give us access to the lab, any time, so we can go back there at night and grab some other stuff. On the other tentacle¡­¡± He then raised a strange pair of metal earphones connected by wires and LEDs. ¡°This, was my original objective.¡±

    Goldie glanced it up and down, ¡°How will that exactly help me evolve?¡±

    ¡°It will help me help you, to be precise.¡± Ditto then corrected, ¡°With this on me, while you are in my party, you will gain a percentage of the experience I gain from combat.¡±

    ¡°Okay¡­I don¡¯t understand what experience has anything¡­Oh, oh right the longer a Magikarp lives the higher the chance of it evolving¡­Wait so this thing will age us faster through combat?¡± Goldie then asked.

    ¡°No no, basically you¡¯ll gain combat experience without having to engage in combat, which is what will help you evolve. At least, that¡¯s how I hope it works in this world.¡± Ditto mused.

    I don¡¯t exactly have an experience bar or any kind of game-like UI myself so¡­

    ¡°Gah, at this point? I¡¯ll try anything.¡± Goldie admitted.

    ¡°Awesome, question is though, how do we form a party?¡± Ditto then pondered, ¡°I mean, normally I¡¯d have to catch you and have you on-hand¡­¡±Stolen story; please report.

    ¡°C-Ca-Catch MEEEEEKKK!?¡± Goldie freaked out at that word, suddenly grabbing Ditto with her fins and squashing his beady face. ¡°YES! THAT¡¯S IT!¡±

    ¡°WHAT?!¡± Ditto shouted in confused response.

    ¡°CATCH ME!¡± Goldie shouted.

    ¡°OKAY!¡± Ditto shouted back.

    ¡°REALLY!?¡± Goldie asked in loud surprise.

    ¡°YES, YES, NOW LET ME GO!¡± Ditto exclaimed.

    ¡°OH SHIT, SORRY!¡± Goldie continued to shout as she let him go and apologise.

    ¡°WHY ARE WE SHOUTING!?¡± Ditto then asked, floating off from her fins.

    ¡°Oh, sorry¡­¡± Goldie apologised, turning redder, ¡°It¡¯s just I realised that would be the perfect solution to trainers hunting me down for being shiny! If I¡¯m already caught then most of them will fuck off!¡±

    ¡°Oh, huh.¡± Ditto mused.

    Goldie¡¯s eyes narrowed, ¡°You just realised that too didn¡¯t you?...¡±

    ¡°Oh no¡­no I definitely thought of that before¡­¡± Ditto bullshitted.

    ¡°Aha, sure. So¡­¡± Goldie then mused.

    ¡°Well, now I need a pokeball.¡± Ditto added.

    ¡°Will that one do?¡± Goldie asked, pointing at one of many pokeballs laying on the river¡¯s bottom.

    ¡°What¡­why are those¡­¡± Ditto began to ask in confusion.

    ¡°That¡¯s what happens when a trainer fails to catch a water pokemon,¡± Goldie mused with a shrug.

    ¡°Collect as many as you can hold into a pile,¡± Ditto told her, and the gathering began, as one by one they began gathering them into a pile to the side of the river entrance.

    No more than half an hour later, they had a hill of about forty pokeballs before them.

    ¡°That¡¯s¡­just the ones in the vicinity?...¡± Ditto mused from above as Goldie swam about the pile counting.

    ¡°Yeap, trainers are too lazy to recover them.¡± Goldie answered, ¡°Forty three here, eight broken though.¡±

    ¡°So thirty five working pokeballs, aight, take the broken ones and a single working one out of the pile.¡± Ditto said and Goldie did as told.

    ¡°Alrighty, now what?¡± Goldie asked, as she watched Ditto then stop flapping his tentacles.

    ¡°Now, I¡¯ll try something¡­¡± Ditto mused as he sank down towards the pile.

    Question; Am I in a Pokemon world based on the tv series. Or. Am I in a Pokemon world based on the games? This, will answer that very question!

    Ditto thought to himself, as he then proceed to constantly think of storing the pokeballs.

    As slowly he reached the pile, making touchdown on the first ball, it suddenly disappeared into his slimy body.

    Then the next did the same.

    And the next.

    And the rest.

    The entire pile of pokeballs disappeared into Ditto¡¯s body.

    Opening his beady eyes, Ditto glanced about, seeing no pokeballs but feeling that he had them somewhere inside.

    I¡¯m in a fucking game world.

    ¡­

    FUCK YEAH!

    He thought, suddenly breaking out into a strange tentaclely dance, involving shaking his non-existent booty about, twirling one tentacle and spinning the other about.

    Goldie just watched in deep confusion, she already knew that storing objects was possible for humans but pokemon could only store one item¡­She had just watched a Ditto store an entire pile.

    ¡°How did you¡­do that?¡± Goldie asked, ¡°I can only hold one item! Only trainers can do that!¡±

    ¡°Wait, really?¡± Ditto then asked as he continued to dance, ¡°Huh, guess it really works like that! Maybe cause I¡¯m not a normal Ditto and¡­¡±

    I¡¯m human on the inside!

    ¡°And?¡± Goldie said with a raised brow.

    ¡°Anyway, now it¡¯s time!¡± Ditto changed the subject, moving towards the last pokeball as he continued to dance, as part of his sick moves he grabbed hold of it with both tentacles and spun it about.

    Before letting it go towards Goldie, ¡°Go pokeball!¡± Ditto exclaimed.

    And Goldie¡¯s eyes widened, her pupils expanding at the sight of a very slow moving pokeball, coming her way.

    PTSD kicked in.

    And Goldie flailed the fuck out, slapping the pokeball aside with her tail.

    Ditto paused his dancing and just watched as the Magikarp flipped the fuck out, screaming and flailing around.

    Several moments passed, as slowly Goldie calmed down, taking in a deep breath before turning her eyes to Ditto.

    ¡°Now now¡­this is for your own good!¡± Ditto said, holding out a pokeball per tentacle.

    He had a lot of tentacles.

    ¡°Oh¡­Oh no¡­OH ARCEUS NO!¡± Goldie exclaimed, losing her shit once more, she turned tail and swam.

    But it was too late.

    As a barrage of pokeballs rained down upon her from above, one finally hit her on the head.

    Goldie screamed, loudly she screamed, as her form went red and was absorbed into the pokeball.

    Ditto sank down to the ball that caught her, returning all the other balls into his ¡®inventory¡¯ he then took hold of it.

    Rising back up to the surface, ¡°Now¡­time to hunt down some pokemon!¡± He told himself with a wide grin.

 Interlude - Im back!

    Sometime later

    <hr>

    Ditto took in deep, exhausted breaths, as green blood lay splattered before him.

    No longer sure if it was splattered on his eyes, or just so much lay around him that that¡¯s what the world now looked like. He was tired.

    Ditto was tired and shaken, as the monster before him loomed over like an ominous reaper.The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.

    ¡°You¡¯re disgusting.¡± Said the creature, as it raised its three-fingered hand, a sphere of light-blue energy forming within its palm.

    ¡°Heh, the pot called the kettle black.¡± Ditto mused in a pained groan, he couldn¡¯t move anymore.

    ¡°Will those be your final words, pretender?¡± The creature asked, its light pink eyes narrowing and filling with bright white energy.

    ¡°Nah, these will be it.¡± Ditto said with a chuckle, coughing out another splatter of green. ¡°You can suck my infinitely long, thicker than your tail, slimy green c-¡±

    But for now, let us go back to the timeline.

 Ch 9 - A Wild Isekai-Protag Has Appeared!

    Ditto lurked behind a bush, right by Route 1¡¯s main path. Checking his left, then checking his right, he expunged a pokeball out of his body before grasping it with two tentacles.

    ¡°Looks clear¡­¡± He mused to himself, sighing in relief before pressing the button on the ball¡¯s centre, before letting it go.

    The ball fell to the grassy ground, suddenly bursting open moments later with a bright flash of red.

    Goldie appeared.

    Goldie screamed.

    Correction¡­Goldie was still screaming.

    And flailing.

    And freaking the flip out.

    Imagine, a sparkly yellow scaled, thick fish with large eyes and big lips, bellowing out in crazed distress.

    ¡°Shit! Clam it! Cool off dammit!¡±

    Ditto tried, but try as he might he couldn¡¯t for the love of sanity calm her down.

    As he stepped close, her tail turned to him. Goldie hovered before him like some kind of cartoon scene, slapping the living shit out of Ditto with her tail, before giving him one last slap and throwing him aside.

    Ditto came to a rolling stop on the lower bark of a tree, dizzy from the assault, he shook his¡­head? Before setting his sights upon Goldie once more.

    ¡°Is this what I get?!¡± Ditto then exclaimed, ¡°I chose you and you just lose yourself the first god damn chance you get!? Don¡¯t you want to evolve?! Don¡¯t you want to become stronger?!¡± Ditto shouted in clear annoyance, a feeling that strangely fleeted away just as easily as it had come. ¡°I thought you wanted to become a Gyarados.¡± He then said calmly.

    To which, Goldie¡¯s flailing faltered.

    ¡°I do!¡± Goldie exclaimed, now entering a normal level of flailing¡­Well for a Magikarp it was normal.

    ¡°Then believe in me!¡± Ditto said, ¡°I won¡¯t do you any harm, we both want the same thing.¡±

    Goldie paused from flailing, flopping about to meet his eyes.

    Both nodding¡­? At one another, ¡°Finally, now we can get to the best part of this plan.¡± Ditto mused.

    ¡°And pray tell¡­what would that be?¡± Goldie asked.

    A cold grind grew over the green slime¡¯s expression then, ¡°We jump the shit outta passers by.¡±

    ¡°¡­Seriously? That¡¯s your grand plan?¡± Goldie asked with now wider than usual eyes.

    ¡°I mean, skipping a few details but, yeah that¡¯s the essence of it.¡± Ditto answered.

    ¡°Huh, sounds simple enough, alright let¡¯s beat the crap out of some kids!¡± Goldie cheered.

    ¡°To beating up kids!¡± Ditto also cheered.

    <hr>

    Minutes Later

    <hr>

    Remy groaned as she and Chris followed Jackal back into Route 1, ¡°Alright, go get that damn Pidgey, we¡¯ll be here wasting god damn time.¡±

    ¡°You don¡¯t gotta be like that about it¡­¡± Jackal whined, heading off down the main path with pokeball in hand and Squirtle by his side.

    Walking away from his companions, ¡°Fucking good job Jackal, Remy got a rattata, Chris got a fucking pikachu¡­And you forgot to even catch something!¡± He grumbled to himself, clutching his pokeball tighter.

    Stomping his way back down the path, Jackal hears rustling coming from the left bushes.

    As suddenly a couple of figures burst out of the brush, a geodude and a bellsprout chasing after an agitated yellow rat.

    A Pikachu.

    Jackal¡¯s hopes rushed up in that moment, ¡°Squirtle! Get boy!¡± He called out to his pokemon, ¡°Go! Bubble!¡±Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.

    Opening its maw wide, watery projectiles flew out of Squirtle¡¯s mouth then, rushing into Geodude who¡¯s attention was taken by a cornered Pikachu.

    Smashing into the rock-type pokemon, Geodude was sent tumbling down the path. Seeing its opportunity, Pikachu moved to escape.

    ¡°Not so fast!¡± Then exclaimed a voice from the bushes, ¡°Wrap!¡± It said, and the Bellsprout¡¯s vines rushed around the Pikachu, wrapping around its body and causing it to stumble down to the ground.

    ¡°Haha! Finder¡¯s keepers!¡± Jackal exclaimed, throwing his pokeball then.

    Soaring through the air and towards the yellow rat, another red ball suddenly collided with it mid-flight, followed up by a blue pokeball.

    A great ball landed upon Pikachu¡¯s head, opening up and absorbing the pokemon into itself.

    ¡°You little twat of a thief!¡± Exclaimed a deeply annoyed voice as a martial artist walked out of the bushes. ¡°You tried to steal my catch didn¡¯t you!?¡±

    ¡°Uh, duh no, how could I know those were your pokemon?¡± Jackal played dumb.

    Only infuriating the well-endowed girl more. ¡°If I had my Machamp with me¡­¡± She grumbled, glancing over at her Bellsprout and Geodude then. ¡°Fine then, you know the rules. Two trainers lock eyes.¡± She retrieved her Geodude before raising a pokeball towards Jackal.

    ¡°Ugh, do we have to?¡± Jackal grumbled with an eye roll as both Squirtle and Bellsprout got into position before their respective trainers.

    <hr>

    <hr>

    ¡°I, martial artist Scylla challenge you to a pokemon battle!¡± She exclaimed, and with another groan Jackal accepted.

    ¡°Sure, fine, yeah.¡± Before suddenly blurting out, ¡°Squirtle go! Use Tackle!¡±

    Squirtle suddenly launched forth, rushing forward a few steps before disappearing into its shell.

    ¡°Hah, Stun Spore!¡± Scylla exclaimed, as Bellsprout then shook its head in response, sending out a cloud of yellow spores.

    Returning from its shell, Squirtle slammed its feet into the ground and pushed hard to the side, avoiding the cloud but losing balance and tumbling off to the side.

    ¡°Use wrap!¡± Scylla called out, and Bellsprout¡¯s tentacles launched, slithering forth and surrounding Squirtle.

    ¡°Squirtle use Withdraw!¡± Jackal shouted and Squirtle returned to his shell just as the vines wrapped around it, visibly the shell seemed to glisten and gleam for a moment. ¡°Now use Water Gun!¡± Jackal ordered, and out of each hole within the shell a burst of water shot out.

    Even as several vines were pulled off, too many now lay entangled around the shell, the attack was ineffective.

    ¡°Fuck!¡± Jackal swore, now agitated as he realized his disadvantage.

    ¡°Too late, now fuck off, ye ken!?¡± The girl exclaimed, raising her pokeball towards the sky, ¡°Bellsprout! Vine Whip!¡± She told her pokemon, as the remainder of its vines then whipped back before suddenly lashing forth onto the shell.

    The sound filled Jackals ears, as bile began to build up in his throat, ¡°Squirtle! Use Bubble!¡± He told his pokemon, but nothing happened.

    At first.

    As Squirtle struggled against the whippings and entanglement, pushing its hands and feet out and against the vines. Bellsprout noticed this and began to move more vines to close those holes up.

    When suddenly a barrage of bubbles surged out of the upper hole, pulling away most of the vines there.

    ¡°Good one! Now bite your way out of the last two!¡± Jackal exclaimed, and like a snapping turtle, Squirtle¡¯s head rushed out. Grabbing hold of the two vines with its mouth, it bit down hard, and the pain was visible on the Bellsprout¡¯s expression as it flailed.

    Releasing the Squirtle from entanglement, it stood up still holding the Bellsprout¡¯s two vines.

    ¡°Bellsprout! Stun Spore!¡± Scylle called out once more, but as her pokemon produced the cloud of yellow, Squirtle¡¯s body began to glow.

    Squirtle began to shine.

    ¡°Fuck yeah! That¡¯s my boy!¡± Jackal shouted out enthusiastically as Wartortle now loomed over Bellsprout with a murderous glare. ¡°Use Tackle!¡± Jackal said, and Wartortle pulled on the vines, pulling Bellsprout with and through its own cloud of stun spores.

    Before suddenly turning about and smashing its shell into the plant-pokemon.

    Sending Bellsprout tumbling back to its trainer¡¯s feet, paralyzed.

    A very annoyed trainer, as she now moved to retrieve Bellsprout.

    When, a rustle came from the bushes to their right.

    Following the sound, walked out an odd sight.

    It was a Bellsprout, or well, its body was of one.

    Except the stem was more stone than plant fibre.

    And the leaves more green crystals than¡­well¡­leaves.

    Then their eyes met its face.

    The face of a Geodude.

    The Geosprout stumbled out further into the open, coming to a stop directly inbetween Jackal, his Squirtle and Scylla with her paralyzed Bellsprout.

    Each could see a wicked grin form over the Geosprout¡¯s expression, as its entire body began to shine.

    But different from how Wartortle had before it evolved.

    No¡­

    No Scylla was accustomed to that shine.

    She knew that light.

    She knew that move.

    All.

    Too.

    Well.

    What she didn¡¯t know, was that this was not what she thought it was.

    Scylla expected a Self-Destruct.

    But instead of an incredibly painful explosion, Geosprout did explode.

    In a wide range expulsion of stun spores.

    Covering twice the area of effect a normal stun spore would, the spores engulfed them all.

    And one by one, they each fell to the ground, paralyzed.

    Jackal was the only one able to still see the Geosprout from where he lay.

    And what he saw, horrified him.

    As he watched Geosprout pick up a rock in one vine, and a thick stick in another.

    It glanced about, its cold gaze going over each of them, until it rested upon Scylla.

    ¡°Best knock the trainers out first.¡± It mused to itself, flicking the rock up into the air and catching it as it came down.

    A cold shiver crawled up Jackal¡¯s spine as he watched the strange pokemon approach Scylla, looming over her fallen form for a moment, before suddenly slamming down the thick stick onto the back of her head.

    Scylla went out cold, unmoving, Jackal was unsure if she was still alive after that hit.

    Then¡­

    Then the Geosprout¡¯s head turned.

    Just its head, a full 180 degrees, and stared right into his eyes.

    Jackal felt a warmth engulf his crotch before it then reached his waist and thighs.

    Geosprout began approaching Jackal.

    Geosprout stood over Jackal.

    Jackal fainted before the stick even reached him.

    Still.

    Geosprout clobbered Jackal, just to be sure.

 Ch 10 - The Hundred and Fifty

    A Geodude and Wartortle tied up in vines, and a Bellsprout splattered with red, these three lay before Geosprout and Goldie.

    Mostly passed out, until Geodude regained consciousness.

    Coming face to face with its current nightmare.

    As a grinning abomination of nature approached it, more and more vines suddenly surging to grasp Geodude.

    Yet these vines weren¡¯t normal, they were green but also looked to be rocky in nature.

    <hr>

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2T4PLjoBkxc</a>

    <hr>

    ¡°Magnitude Vines.¡± The Geosprout mused, and suddenly Geodude shook.

    As the vines entered its every crevasse, pushing into cracks they shouldn¡¯t have been able to enter, Geodude felt itself being pulled limb from limb as its every orifice shook.

    Violated.

    Geodude felt utterly violated as it groaned, meeting its assailants eyes though, it saw naught in there but white beady emptiness.

    Only coldness filled the creature¡¯s eyes, not the slightest expression of emotion further from entertainment.

    But there was no pain yet, no until Geosprout muttered another mixed move.

    ¡°Bulldoze Whip.¡± It said, and from its side grew the largest, buffest vine Geodude had ever seen.

    Thicker than a Machoke¡¯s arm, the vine formed a pseudo fist before suddenly descending upon Geodude.

    A single hit is all it took with the combined power of grass and ground, Geodude was knocked the fuck out.

    And with the rumble that followed, Wartortle woke up.

    Immediately this ill-natured pokemon started struggling, and when it realised what surrounded it, it struggled much more fiercely.

    That¡¯s when it saw a sudden change in Geosprout¡¯s appearance, as metal-rod like protrusions replaced the rocky leaves. Taking on the Alolan side of a Geodude out of no-where, Geosprout¡¯s beady eyes and strange mouth also became much more apparent.

    Wartortle realised this wasn¡¯t just any pokemon, it was a shapeshifter.

    And as a vine completely covered by these rods grew on its right side, Wartortle¡¯s heart sank.

    ¡°Spark Vine!¡± Geosprout exclaimed, bashing the shocking vine into Wartortle and watching as consciousness immediately left its eyes.

    Just like Geodude, Wartortle stood no chance.

    ¡°Perfect, now for this issue¡­¡± Geosprout mused, knowing Bellsprout would sure awaken next, he glanced inbetween Goldie and Wartortle.

    Bellsprout waking up just in time to watch the birth of this monstrosity, as Ditto changed form entirely.

    Rising with the hulking body of a Blastoise but the head and tail of the wicked Gyarados. Bellsprout then noticing the splatters of red all around itself, before glancing over an unconscious Geodude and Wartortle.

    Panic immediately settled within its mind, as the monster turned towards it.

    Utter terror kept Bellsprout frozen in place, as Gyaratoise hissed out.

    ¡°Blizzard of Rage!¡± Gyaratoise growled, and a blast of dark ice burst out of its shoulder cannons and down upon Bellsprout.

    A mixture of ice and dragon, the attack decimated poor Bellsprout, leaving nothing behind but a few frost-bitten vines.

    ¡­

    Gyaratoise and Goldie stared in surprise and shock.

    ¡°Woopsie.¡± Gyaratoise mused, ¡°I just wanted to see if I could use learnable and machine moves¡­¡±

    ¡°Well you done fucked that thing up.¡± Goldie added.The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

    ¡°At least I know now¡­I can take on the Alolan form of a pokemon, although less accurately to what I see and I can use both learnable by level and machine moves of that pokemon¡­Shit, I don¡¯t think I have a move limit!¡± Gyaratoise mumbled out.

    Goldie flopped around to face him, ¡°Mother fucker after everything I¡¯ve just witnessed, that¡¯s the part that surprises you!?¡±

    ¡°Yo fish just hand me the stuff.¡± Gyaratoise grumbled back.

    ¡°Mother fucker does it LOOK like I can HAND you ANYTHING!?¡± Goldie exclaimed, waving its fins about.

    ¡°Oh, right.¡± Gyaratoise realised.

    ¡°Right up your reptilian ass, get your own shit.¡± Goldie reprimanded.

    Grumbling something under his breath, ¡°Oh I¡¯ll shove something up your bitch ass alright¡­¡± Gyaratoise grabbed the two backpacks they had left laying nearby, one per hand he flipped them open then upside down, emptying their contents.

    One barely had anything inside, but the other was loaded with potions, pokeballs but most importantly¡­Revives.

    Yellow crystal-like pills, the box also came with a usage-guide.

    One word in said guide caught Gyaratoise¡¯s eyes though.

    The word read as, ¡°Suppository¡­¡±

    Gyaratoise glanced back at Goldie, ¡°So¡­about those fins of yours¡­can you hold-¡±

    ¡°I can read too dipshit,¡± Goldie immediately added, a wide grin appearing over her face. ¡°And no, they cannot.¡±

    ¡°Oh fuck a Ditto.¡±

    <hr>

    Some hours later

    <hr>

    Machoke finally reached where it had last seen its master, stepping out of the forest and into the river it saw nothing and no one but Magikarps swimming about.

    Its heart growing heavy, as sadness filled its expression.

    A sound suddenly reached its ears, a familiar voice alongside an unfamiliar one.

    ¡°Come on you can do it!¡±

    ¡°God damnit no! No I¡¯m not doing this!¡±

    Rage, wraith filled Machoke at the sound.

    As it turned to where it came from, Machoke charged in that direction.

    It vowed to itself it would get revenge, it vowed it would not lose again.

    Rushing through the forest, until it came out to the main path.

    Glancing about, it knew some kind of scuffle had occurred here.

    ¡°Just do it!¡±

    ¡°You do it!¡±

    ¡°I can¡¯t you dim wit!¡±

    ¡°But why do I have to do it!?¡±

    Hearing the voices once again, Machoke followed them, walked into the forest opposing the side it had come out from, Machoke trudged through thick brush for several moments until it came upon a¡­

    Strange sight.

    ¡­

    A Magikarp flailed about shouting encouragement as¡­

    ¡°Just do it! Just do it!¡±

    As a Blastoise with the face of a Gyarados held a Wartortle by the left leg several feet off the ground with one hand and a yellow crystal within its other hand.

    ¡°Goddamnit! God fucking damnit!¡± The Gyaratoise psyched itself up, approaching Wartortle¡¯s behind with the crystal before backing away once more.

    ¡°Maybe if you go slimy again and use your tentacles? Hey, there¡¯s an idea.¡± Goldie suggested.

    ¡°Fucking hell woman let¡¯s keep this PG!¡± Gyaratoise added with clear panic in his tone.

    ¡°Just fucking shove it in there already!¡± Goldie shouted.

    ¡°How about you do it then!?¡± Gyaratoise shouted back.

    ¡°Mother fucker I don¡¯t have hands! Why do I gotta keep pointing that out!? Your white-ass eyes just as blind as they look!?¡± Goldie spat out.

    ¡°Then stop fucking rushing me!¡± Gyaratoise screamed, returning then to glancing in between the Revive and Wartortle¡¯s¡­place where no light usually shines.

    Seeing this sight, seeing the unconscious Geodude and the pile of potions and revives, plus the damaged terrain.

    Machoke put one and one together.

    They were farming these two poor pokemon for experience.

    Its anger rising, it then noticed a few tattered vines laying nearby Geodude.

    It recognised the Geodude, it was its master¡¯s Geodude.

    Then those vines¡­

    Those vines where¡­

    Machoke¡¯s eyes narrowed as its jaw clenched, its teeth grinding with one another as its muscles stretched and veins bulged.

    It then noticed a familiar rucksack¡­

    It was its master¡¯s rucksack.

    Growling out with rage, Machoke rushed out of the brush, stomping forth and bashing into the Gyaratoise.

    Eyes filled with anger, Machoke grabbed Gyaratoise by the shell and turned, throwing it off into a tree. Breaking said tree with the collision.

    Growling out ferociously, its reddened eyes were set and focused upon its enemy.

    ¡°Hah¡­So you survived that.¡± Gyaratoise mused, rising from the tree¡¯s wreckage, he faced the Machoke with a grin.

    That grin¡­

    That¡¯s where the trouble began.

    That smile.

    That damned smile.

    The ground around it shook, as rocks floated up into the air.

    The very grass and bushes in its immediate surroundings were squashed down into the ground as a great pressure was emitted by it.

    Machoke kneeled down to the pile of stuff laying beside its master¡¯s emptied rucksack, taking a Pal Pad from the pile into its hands.

    It rose up and met Gyaratoise¡¯s eyes. Its owned reddened with rage.

    Machoke bellowed out, a constant shout of fury.

    As its entire body began to shine a bright white.

    ¡°The fuck is this, dragon ball!?¡± Gyaratoise mumbled out as the light suddenly dispelled out into a wave of pressure, causing the trees around them to shudder.

    Standing before it now was a four-armed, completely enraged, Machamp.

    Who stretched its arms out, its muscles Bulking Up, Machamp prepared itself to attack.

    Suddenly, the sound of something¡­falling filled their ears.

    A long-winded whistling reached them.

    Coming closer¡­

    And closer¡­

    The tension around them was already high, but this one sound gave way enough for everyone to¡­

    Look up.

    A small explosion occurred where Machamp stood.

    Dust and rocks blasted by Gyaratoise as he tried his best to remain standing, the blast of wind the explosion created was almost sending him flying.

    Clouds of dust filled his vision briefly, as through the smokescreen Gyaratoise noticed one thing¡­

    Two things.

    Shining bright pink, a set of eyes stared coldly at him with an alien gaze.

    As he then momentarily switched his attention to watching a very distraught Goldie flailing and flopping away from the dust, screaming at the top of her fishy lungs.

    The dust slowly cleared away, revealing that standing over the body of an unconscious Machamp¡­

    Was Mewtwo.

    ¡°Yo jackass you ruined his goku moment just saiyan!¡± Gyaratoise grumbled.

 Ch 11 - Clash of Titans

    The warm and stagnant forest air shuddered with the emanating pressure as a Legendary¡¯s eyes set fiercely upon Ditto, feeling itself being crushed solely under the air¡¯s force and suddenly snapping him out of his transformation.

    Ditto¡¯s every fibre¡­or goo, of being screamed to run. To get as far away as possible from this creature.

    Yet something¡­deep inside Ditto, it reached out to it.

    Something from within pulled Ditto forth.

    Nothing like a shove, it was a mild feeling, a nudge at best.

    But it was ever present and unignorable.

    ¡°Abhorrent, your very existence makes my insides churn.¡± Mewtwo glowed with fury as it hovered up into the air. ¡°That man will have no time to acquaint with you, I will be done justly before.¡± It¡¯s massive tail whipped behind itself as violet energy rushed down its body.

    ¡°Aight b look, I don¡¯t know what I did to you, but I swear it wasn¡¯t me!¡± Ditto exclaimed, his green complexion paling at the sight of an angry Mewtwo.

    All the while he glanced about, trying to find anything to transform into, any other pokemon to merge in with this Mewtwo¡­

    Nothing, not a single target was in sight¡­except a Goldie as she flailed and screamed still.

    And as Mewtwo raised both hands forth, raw psychic power converging before it, one thought went through our Hero¡¯s head.

    Fuck it.

    ¡°Begone from my sight.¡± In rapid succession spheres of energy rained down upon Ditto, a dozen a second, it was a merciless onslaught from Mewtwo.

    Ending only as a flash of light escaped the smoke screen the assault caused.

    Eyes narrowing, Mewtwo waved its hand and the smoke dispersed¡­

    Revealing something that quickly made its eyes widen.

    Smooth golden scales covering his bipedal body from the bulging fingertips all the way down to the legs, where two large fins lay. But what caught Mewtwo mostly off-guard, was the head.

    Heartless wide white eyes with a tiny black iris at the centre, giving away no emotion, betraying no thoughts from their owner. As below them its mouth lay puff and large with two wiggling tendrils hanging on either end, just like a wicked moustache.

    Magitwo rose up from kneeling, meeting Mewtwo¡¯s eyes with its own white abyssal pits.

    ¡°You dare¡­Mock?¡±This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience.

    ¡°Yo I¡¯m just tryin to survive.¡±

    <hr>

    Two explosions of power arose from either side as both threw themselves at the other, hands grasping hands, Mewtwo¡¯s enraged face lay inches off Magitwos as they gripped one another momentarily.

    Before suddenly both taking light-speed combat quite literally, moving faster than Goldie¡¯s eyes could witness, only flashes of light bursting about the forest could be.

    As the two clashed, the pressure about the forest intensifying to the point of collapsing trees on themselves wherever their hits landed.

    Appearing suddenly apart from one another each charged up their respective attacks, Mewtwo putting its hands ahead of itself and summoning forth crackling psychic forces.

    Whilst Magitwo put its hands together and to its side, and while Mewtwo lay silent Magitwo screamed, ¡°KAMMEEEEHAMEEE~¡± as psychic energies were joined with a stream of condensed water into coiling about and in between his palms, forming a bright blue orb.

    ¡°HA!¡± Croaking with a high pitch on the last bit of his shout, both attacks surged at one another, clashing in their midst as a blue sphere of watery power spun at insane speed fighting off a ray of psychic energy.

    Total concentration filled both of their expressions for long tense moments until suddenly the sphere exploded, sending about a pulse of force as if great amounts of pressure were abruptly released.

    Both opponents were sent flying backwards, Mewtwo flying through the air to a sudden stop whilst Magitwo dragged through the dirt to a slow pause before both once again met each other¡¯s gaze.

    ¡°I¡¯m finishing this.¡± Mewtwo mused as its eyes glowed brightly, focusing itself, it opened its arms wide as suddenly a powerful force grasped at Magitwo, raising him up into the air.

    Crushing agony, this is what Magitwo felt as everything everywhere seemed to be squeezing him, as a force of raw psychic power squashed him from each and every possible direction.

    Bellowing out in pain, he could barely even think through the horror.

    A terror which only ceased as Mewtwo suddenly let go.

    A blob of green collapsed to the ground then, losing his transformation Ditto lay slumped like a puddle.

    Ditto took in deep, exhausted breaths, as green blood lay splattered before him.

    No longer sure if it was splattered on his eyes, or just so much lay around him that that¡¯s what the world now looked like. He was tired.

    Ditto was tired and shaken, as the monster before him loomed over like an ominous reaper.

    ¡°You¡¯re disgusting.¡± Said the creature, as it raised its three-fingered hand, a sphere of light-blue energy forming within its palm.

    ¡°Heh, the pot called the kettle black.¡± Ditto mused in a pained groan, he couldn¡¯t move anymore.

    ¡°Will those be your final words, pretender?¡± The creature asked, its light pink eyes narrowing and filling with bright white energy.

    ¡°Nah, these will be it.¡± Ditto said with a chuckle, coughing out another splatter of green. ¡°You can suck my infinitely long, thicker than your tail, slimy green c-¡±

    Suddenly Mewtwo raised its right hand forth and once again psychic power gripped hold of Ditto, raising the green puddle to before it.

    ¡°Now truly,¡± Mewtwo coldly said, gripping its three fingers into a fist and the crushing force returned.

    Causing Ditto to be squashed into a green sphere.

    ¡°You shouldn¡¯t even exist, just as I, but unlike I you will be released of your existence. This is a mercy I do not give lightly.¡± Mewtwo assured, ¡°Disappear-¡±

    ¡°Stop!¡± A voice then called out, and Mewtwo ceased its attack, dropping Ditto to the ground.

    Turning about, Mewtwo grimaced as it saw Dr.Oak helping a Machamp out from being buried underground.  ¡°You will not harm that specimen!¡± Oak ordered, and with a sigh Mewtwo nodded, lowering itself to the ground.

    Both turned to look at where Ditto was¡­

    Both of their expressions narrowed, as they saw no Ditto there, hearing a sound nearby then both turned only to see a yellow Machamp with the head of a Magikarp leaping out of sight with a shiny Magikarp in his arms¡­

    ¡°Woolululululululu!¡±

 Ch 12 - Nom

    ¡°MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!~¡± After taking a brief pause to breathe, Magichamp charged himself up to charge off once more!

    ¡°Wooooooooo!~¡± Dashing away at top speed with a screaming Goldie in his arms, ¡°LULULULULULULULUULULULU~¡± His own scream of confused horror overshadowing it.

    He swore he saw a bunch of kids and their pokemon stare at him as he ran past them, but he wasn¡¯t about to turn around to find out.

    He ran, for as long as his body could take him he ran.

    ¡°LU!~¡­LU!~¡­Lu¡­uuu~¡± Collapsing forwards and into the forest ground, Magichamp exhaled.

    ¡°Oh good holy fuck you didn¡¯t tell me you had history with that thing!¡± Goldie exclaimed, trying to pull herself out from under him.

    ¡°Huh?...What?¡± He asked in confusion, still catching his breath.

    ¡°The pink ass bitch that just tried to kill you!¡± Goldie screamed, finally popping out from underneath him.

    ¡°Right¡­yeah¡­I forgot to mention, I¡¯m part of an underground militia working to destroy the planet.¡± Magichamp bullshitted.

    ¡°Wait, seriously!?¡± Goldie asked.

    ¡°No you dim-witted goldfish! I never met that thing!¡± He groaned.

    ¡°Oh, bitch why then!?¡± Goldie demanded to know.

    ¡°How the fuck should I kn-¡± He began to say when suddenly both of their stomachs rumbled, ¡°Ugh, I don¡¯t know.¡± Both of them settling then. ¡°I just know we need to get the hell outta this route! We need to get stronger too¡­¡±

    ¡°Yeah yeah, we tried that!¡± Goldie added, ¡°No we need¡­We need!...¡±

    ¡°Woah there, don¡¯t blow a nerve on me.¡± Magichamp chuckled, grabbing Goldie by the tail and picking her off the floor.

    ¡°A team!¡± Goldie suddenly exclaimed.

    ¡°Team?¡± He repeated.

    ¡°Yeah! You can use pokeballs remember!? You just need to catch more than just me! Plus-¡± Goldie explained.

    ¡°And then I can also transform into them too!¡± He realised, before both of their stomachs rumbled once again.

    ¡°But first we eat.¡± They both said in unison.

    <hr>

    Elsewhere¡­And some moments before...

    <hr>

    ¡°Ugh, I can¡¯t believe you all left without me!¡± Ashley grumbled as Pichu peaked out from her backpack, ¡°And it took an explosion to get you all rushing back!¡±

    ¡°I just can¡¯t believe Team Rocket would be so bold to attack Oak¡¯s.¡± Chris mused, ¡°What were they looking for? Starter pokemon?¡± He asked glancing over at Ashley.

    ¡°Ah, err, I don¡¯t know¡­¡± Quickly calming down she also avoided eye-contact.

    ¡°Girl come on, you know something.¡± Remy added, turning to face Ashley with a narrowed expression.

    Ashley and Pichu both shook their heads, ¡°No no¡­I don¡¯t know anything I swear!¡±

    Oak knows! But he made me swear not to say anything! Not that I remember anything! Ahh!

    ¡°lululululu~¡± A sound then abruptly caught their attention, coming from afar at first they all turned to stare down the forest on their left.

    ¡°aaaaa!~¡±

    ¡°What the fuck is that?¡± Jackal asked, squinting as they all stared.

    ¡°LuLuLuLuLuLu~¡±

    ¡°AAaaaahhh!~¡±This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

    ?...

    ¡°LULULULULULULULU!~¡±

    ¡°AAAAAHHHHHHHHH!~¡±

    A yellow form came into sight then, rushing into their direction, it only grew bigger the closer it came.

    While Ashley stepped close to take a better look, the other three¡¯s expressions paled.

    And as the form leapt past them, time seemed to slow for all of them, as they realised they were looking at a buff humanoid shiny magikarp with four arms holding another normal shiny magikarp¡­

    It ran by them, ignoring their existence entirely as it continued on to the other side of the forest, both of them screaming all the way.

    The four trainers remained stunned in bafflement all the way past the several minutes it took the sound to disappear.

    ¡°What the actual fuck was that?¡± Ashley asked, still staring emptily towards where the thing came from.

    ¡°Uh, I think w-¡± Chris was about to say when both Remy and Jackal slapped his mouth shut.

    ¡°We don¡¯t know!¡± Remy shouted in response, ¡°We don¡¯t know!¡± She then hissed in whisper into Chris¡¯s ear.

    ¡°Huh,¡± Ashley hummed, turning to where it went. ¡°Maybe we should-¡±

    ¡°No!¡±

    ¡°No!¡±

    ¡°No!¡±

    They all said in unison, ¡°Maybe we should set camp!¡± Remy then added, pushing Ashley off down the road.

    ¡°But-¡± Ashley tried to disagree.

    ¡°Right! It¡¯s getting dark!¡± Chris complied, also helping Remy push Ashley off.

    Jackal stayed where he stood, staring down the path of run over forest bushes with a twitching expression.

    ¡°JACKAL!¡± Remy screeched and he jumped.

    ¡°R-Right coming!¡± Running off to follow them, he almost fell over twice on the way.

    Giving up, Ashley followed Chris off the path and to a nearby opening in the forest they were all familiar with.

    ¡°Jack get the portable tents out, Ashley set the campfire and Rem pull out the portable table.¡± Chris began giving tasks as he himself started taking boxes and bags from his rucksack.

    And each listened, nobody could argue with his commander attitude when it got to it.

    Nobody could stop Chris when he was in that mood.

    Even if the world was dying, nothing could stop him¡­

    As he stood before the table, having already spread all he needs before himself.

    Nothing could stop Chris from cooking.

    Putting together a controlled environment for the fire, Ashley then moved on to gathering branches and drywood for it, groaning as she watched Jackal and Remy lazing about after having completed their arguably much shorter tasks.

    Yeah, sure, portable tents and tables that fit in backpacks exist, but not campfires! Fucking-blasted-shit-god-damn

    Carrying off all she could find into the firepit, Ashley sat down on her backpack and began trying to light it up.

    Seeing her annoyed as she did so, Pichu who had come out of the backpack in fear of being fucking sat on ran up to the campfire and began rubbing its cheeks.

    Suddenly a spark of energy zapped out of Pichu and into the drywood, lighting it fucking afire all of a sudden and smoking Ashley¡¯s face as she leaped back and fell back.

    Seeing this transpire, Jackal and Remy couldn¡¯t help themselves from exploding in laughter.

    Pichu on the other hand, who only wanted to help, was annoyed by this.

    Puffing its cheeks and chest up, as Ashley scrambled to extinguish the flames on her hair, Pichu walked up to Jackal and Remy who were only laughing harder.

    Buzzing with sparks of electricity, Pichu was stopped in its tracks as a Squirtle and Bulbasaur blocked its path to their trainers.

    Eyes narrowed, the two pokemon glared fiercely at Pichu, ¡°Piii!¡± as it charged up for battle.

    When suddenly an Ember blasted into their midst, sending all three pokemon stumbling back in surprise, whilst Pichu fell back on its ass with wide eyes, Squirtle disappeared in its spinning shell and Bulbasaur flipped itself over some fucking how.

    ¡°Ready!¡± Chris then exclaimed, dishing out four red bowls onto the ground full of pokemon chow.

    Charmander was the first to its food as Squirtle and Bulbasaur scrambled alongside Pichu to eat, both of them bumping into poor Pichu and pushing it aside to get to theirs.

    Pulling itself up from the ground, Pichu grumpily made its way towards its bowl, watching as Bulbasaur¡¯s vines knocked it over.

    Going paper pale at the site, it turned to its trainer for comfort, but it was for naught as all four trainers moved to sit around the campfire while Chris hung a large pot over it.

    Beginning to stir the pot, the trainers began to chat about their strange day that hadn¡¯t yet ended.

    Resigning itself to this fate, Pichu made its way to the floor food, grouchily beginning to eat.

    From behind Pichu, a very large yellow hand appeared pushing Bulbasaur¡¯s bowl to before Pichu.

    ¡°Come on really, what you all freaked out for? It¡¯s just a pokemon we haven¡¯t seen before!¡± Ashley exclaimed, ¡°You¡¯re trainers! We should be out there looking for it!¡±

    ¡°nom~¡±

    ¡°Ugh please don¡¯t bring it up¡­¡± Remy groaned.

    ¡°nomnomnomnomnom~¡±

    Jackal simply stared emptily at the stirring pot, ¡°I really don¡¯t wanna talk about it Ash¡­¡± Chris mumbled out.

    ¡°NomNomNomNomNomNom~¡±

    ¡°Oh you¡¯re all wussies! What you afraid of!?¡± Ashley then grumbled.

    ¡°Of dying!¡± Jackal then stood up and shouted, very loudly, ¡°Of being torn to fucking shreds by a brainwashed army of Magikarps! You haven¡¯t seen my nightmares okay!?¡±

    ¡°NOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOM~¡±

    The sound was then completely noticeable, as all four trainers slowly and shakily turned their heads to it.

    Finding Charmander, Bulbasaur and Squirtle standing completely dead still and with wide shaky eyes.

    As Pichu ate its food happily, and just as happily¡­

    Crouching behind yet still towering over Pichu, Magichamp gobbled up the rest of the food.

    Both of them were stuffing themselves for a long, dreadfully silent moment, all except for the chilling sound of¡­

    ¡°NOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOM~¡±

    Until Magichamp noticed that the trainers had stopped talking, almost mechanically it stopped eating, and just as mechanically its head began to rise.

    All trainers turned paperwhite, as the creature¡¯s abyssal eyes set upon them.

    They stared.

    For long dreadful moments, each side stared.

    Not a sound, not a breath, not a single movement was made¡­

    Until¡­

    ¡­

    ¡°NOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOM~¡±

 Interlude - *Wobble Wobble Wobble* ... *Ding!*

    ¡°YOUU!¡± Finally realising who stood before him, Magichamp suddenly stood up and pointed at Ashley, as her Pichu lit up like a lightbulb. Spitting out food as he shouted¡­

    As he talked¡­

    They heard a humanoid Magikarp talk.

    ¡­

    Remi screamed.

    Jackal Fainted.

    Ashley and Chris took out a pokeball each, as Pichu and Charmander rushed forth ready to fight.

    ¡°D-D-Did it just talk!? It just fucking talked!¡± Remi shouted, rising up to sit on the table, squashing her Bulbasaur in her hands.

    Squirtle was currently trying to use Bubble to wake Jackal up.Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.

    ¡°We know that Remi! We¡­heard it too.¡± Chris mused, just as confused as the rest yet much calmer about it.

    As within Ditto¡¯s mind.

    Shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit fuck.

    He had been too hellbent on finding food to realise he had revealed himself, and there was no going back now.

    Unless¡­I leave no¡­No, no I¡¯m better than that, they¡¯re just trainers¡­I¡¯m not going to kill an innocent!

    As he fought with his own morality, Chris and Ashley glanced at one another, a Magichamp freaking out before them.

    Chris had seen this creature before, but he now did not see an army of magikarps praising it like a god¡­anywhere around.

    This is my chance, to put an end to whatever that was!

    He heroically thought to himself, thinking Ashley understood his glance.

    What Ashley was thinking though¡­

    A new species! Christ wants it! Hell no! I¡¯m catching it first!

    Faster than anyone could then react, Ashley threw her pokeball.

    My dad had to fish out a massive whiscash for this!

    She thought to herself¡­

    As the masterball landed squarely on Magichamp¡¯s head.

    A stupid expression of surprise on Magichamp¡¯s face, as he turned into red light.

    A stupid expression of surprise on her face, as the pokemon entered the ball.

    And a stupid expression of surprise on Chris¡¯s face, as¡­

    Ditto was caught.

    ¡­

    Squirtle successfully woke up Jackal!

    "W-What''d I miss?"
