SZ: Hello, minna. Seanzilla115 here with my good friend Gammatron, here to bring you one of two new fic ideas.

GammaTron: *makes a hand wave movement with boths hands, dressed as the male character for Sun/Moon* Alola!

SZ: Oh! Good idea!*snaps fingers before a puff of smoke appeared over him, fading to reveal he was dressed in a similar faction* Alola! Ahem! Anyways...you're probably wondering 'Why Blazblue with Pokemon? Those two don't fit at all.' Well it's just an idea to try out and all. Also we'll be using mostly the characters from the Remix Heart manga, Ie Noel, Makoto, Tsubaki, Mai, and Cajun. As for the Pokemon side….GT?

GT: The anime.

ZS: yup, but with a twist. We'll be having Pokemon from the other games/regions appear in this, along with the moves introduced in each generation up to now. Now depending on how well recieved this story is, along with the other idea we have in mind...well, expect more chapters for this

GT: Indeed. Plus, maybe Ash will finally win a league for once.

SZ: hopefully yeah...given how he came in second in X & Y….I still say Team Flare cheated to help Alain win so they could initiate their plan. I mean, how can you say Greninja got KOed in one hit by a Blast Burn from Charizard X, who's known for Physical attacks rather than special attacks?

GT: Agreed. Either that or Status Quo is God. Such as how much they pounded it in on the poor guy with no only losing to an idiot in Unova, but also losing to a guy who used TWO Legendaries in Sinnoh...which makes it even more depressing when you realize the one who won Sinnoh was the guy with the Eeveelution Family for a team.

SZ:...that was in Unova GT.

GT: ...I keep forgetting that. Would've been both sad and hilarious, though.

SZ: *nods* anyways, we've delayed this long enough, so...disclaimers. We do not own anything in this story, nor do we own the Pokemon or Blazblue franchises. Pokemon belongs to Nintendo while Blazblue belongs to Aksys games and Arc System Works. So without further ado...GT? Care to do the honors?

GT: Of course. NEBBY!

Nebby-Solgaleo: *roars and uses Sunsteel Strike on the screen*

"Okay...so why're we out here again?"

"There's a rumor about a Grimoire that can alter all five senses out here."

"Seriously? I mean, don't get me wrong. It sounds like the best one we can find, but really? Out here in a forest?"

"Would you rather have it out in a desert area?"

"...Fair point."

"Eek!"

"Noellie, what's wrong?"

"B-b-b-big spider!"

"...Oh come on, Noel. It can't be th-I stand corrected."

"Shit! Run!"

"Strange. That kind of spider is native to just Austrailia. I believe their venom is known to kill a grown cow in just an hour or two."

"Not the time for research, Cajun!"

"Great! Now that image is stuck in my head!"

"Complain later, Makoto! Just run!"

"How can I, Mai?! Especially when there's a f-what the heck is that up ahead?"

"Strange..it looks like...a worm hole."

"W-worm?!"

"Could it be a defense for the Grimoire?"

"Possibly, Tsubaki. How else w-?"

"Uh, I hate to interrupt your little examination, but I think we're getting pulled into it!"

"WHAT?!" four screams went off.

"Quick, run the other way! ...Crap! The pull is too strong!"

"Perhaps it's a combination of a black hole and a wormhole."

"Cajun, think later; hold onto tree now!"

*crack*

"OH FUUUU…"

"Makot-Ah!"

"Tsubaki!"

"Eek!"

"Oh shit! I forgot about the spider!"

"Let go of the tree!"

"And deal with the black hole?! No th…..okay, screw it! No way am I ending up spider chow!"

"Actually spiders only attack if provo-"

"NOT NOW CAJUN!"

*CRACK*

"...The branch we're holding onto just broke, didn't it?"

"U-u-u-uh-huh…"

"And we're being sucked in now, right?"

"We are, Mai."

"...Goddammit…"

"I don't want to dieeeeEEEEEEEEEEE!"

A soft whimper went off as a pair of soft emerald green eyes opened slowly. The owner of said eyes was a young girl around fifteen years of age with shoulder-length blond hair. She wore a blue and white school uniform with gold accents on it and a pair of black leggings. She let out another whimper as she began to slowly get up into a sitting position.

"Ow...my head…" the girl whispered as she rubbed her head before taking a look at her surroundings, "...Wh-where are…?"

"Ow…." a voice groaned, making her turn to see four other girls just waking up in the same uniform as her, all of them the same age as her, possibly a year or or two older.

The first of them was a girl with long red hair with a longer skirt than the others. Her hair framed her face with two bangs that had silver pieces in them while her blue eyes opened up. Following her was a girl with auburn hair with bits of white and a lighter shade of brown in it with a pair of squirrel ears and a large, fluffy tail on her.

"No more chesnut parfaits mixed with pop rocks before bed…" the squirrel girl mumbled.

Getting up into a sitting position was a blue-haired girl with her hair pulled into a ponytail with two ahegao while a long violet-haired girl with butterfly clips in her hair and a dress-like skirt stood up fully, dusting off the dirt and some mud as best she could.

"Is the spider gone?" the blue-haired girl groaned.

"I believe so," the violet haired girl responded before she looked around, "...But it appears that wormhole transported us someplace else."

"Huh?" the squirrel girl blinked a bit as she opened her eyes, revealing them to be an acorn/golden color as she looked around, "...You're right. I don't recognize any of the trees here."

"That did not look like any wormhole I saw on television or on the computer," the blue-haired girl noted, "Looked more like some sort of tunnel that people make to act as the insides of connections to things in shows about being inside computers."

"...That is true…" the red haired girl admitted as she stood up, holding her chin in thought, "It also looked like it was recent, so I doubt it was there for a long time. But the better question right now is..." she paused as she looked around, "Where did it send us?"

"Or when," the violet-haired girl noted, "Remember, the theory about wormholes is that they're points connected between two points in both space and time."

"Of course," the redhead nodded.

"Well..maybe there's a town or something nearby th-" the squirrel girl began before she noticed something, "...Uh, girls?"

"Yes, Makoto?"

"There's a white and blue squirrel with yellow cheeks eating a berry," Makoto noted.

"H...huh?" the shy blond blinked at that.

"...Makoto, squirrels can't be white and blue...with…" the red haired girl trailed off as she looked in the squirrel girl's direction, seeing the exact creature sitting on a tree branch while eating a berry of sorts, "..."

The creature was indeed what appeared to be a white squirrel. It was small, around 1' 04" with a faint bluish tint and a light blue stripe starting from its forehead and goes all the way down to the tip of the tail. A large white tooth grew out of its mouth and it had deep gray eyes and a yellow circle on each cheek. Its tail was almost twice as big as its body, with three spikes at the top of the curl. The berry itself was also unusual resembling a pink heart on two green leaves. It was also noted that the berry seemed rather burnt.

"...C...Could it be some sort of mutation caused by Seithr?" the redhead pondered.

"How fascinating," the violet-haired girl noted as she pulled out a notebook and pen and began to write in it, "It looks like it's about little more than 0.4 meters in height and possibly weighs no more than 8.9 kilograms."

"...c...cute," the blond whispered as she looked at it.

"Noel, don't you try going near it. We have no idea what it can do," the blue-haired girl warned as the squirrel ate the rest of the berry.

"Pa...chi," the squirrel seemed to say, giving a blissful sigh as it stood up, about to take off before it noticed the girls, "Chipa?"

"Nobody move," the redhead warned as the squirrel sniffed before looking at Makoto.

Before any of them could react, the squirrel glowed briefly before turning into a blur. Makoto yelped as the blur shot up her leg and into her clothes.

"Ah! It went into her clothes!" Noel gasped before the squirrel poked out of the top of her shirt, popping a button as it did so to reveal it holding a chestnut in its mouth, the cheeks puffed out a bit.

"What the...oh you little sneak!" Makoto snapped before the squirrel shot up and went straight into her tail, "Oh no you don't, you little thief!"

"Makoto, why was there a chestnut in your clothes?" the redhead frowned.

"No-reason-Tsubaki," Makoto quickly replied as she shook her tail, trying to force the squirrel out, "Come on, you little...!"

"CHIPA~" the five heard the squirrel moan as it poked out, stars in its eyes with the half-eaten chestnut in its tiny paws.

"I think it likes the chestnut," the blue-haired girl noted.

"Looks that way, Mai," the violet haired girl noted, drawing a small diagram of the squirrel to examine later.

"Chi-pachi-pachirisu!" the squirrel spoke as it held up the half-eaten chestnut with pleading eyes to Makoto.

"...I...I think she's asking if she could have it, Makoto," the blonde noted.

"She?" Mai asked.

"I-I noticed a similar one run nearby, and t-the blue stripe on her tail is a bit shorter than that one."

"..." Makoto kept frowning at the squirrel as it kept giving her a pleading look, "...If I let you have it, do you promise not to go into my clothes and steal more?"

"Pachi-pa!" she nodded.

"...Fine. you can have it," Makoto sighed before yelping when the squirrel ran up her shoulder and began nuzzling against her cheek, "H-hey! Cut that out...heh heh..that kinda tickles."

"It seems you've made a new friend," the violet-haired girl giggled.

"Heh...looks like, Cajun," Makoto chuckled as the squirrel nuzzled against her cheek, "She is kinda cute now that I got a closer look at her."

"Chipa!" the squirrel beamed as she hopped off Makoto's shoulder and went into her tail once more.

"...I think she likes your tail," Noel noted.

"Gee. Ya think?" Makoto deadpanned before looking up to see the storm clouds dissipating, "Well, that's a relief."

"It'd be pretty bad if we ended up waking up in the middle of a storm," Mai noted as she looked up as well before freezing when she looked in one direction.

"What's wrong?" Tsubaki asked.

"G-g-g-gi-g-g-gia-g-g-gia…" Mai stammered in disbelief until Cajun lightly whapped the back of her head, "Giant gold bird!"

"Huh?" the others blinked as they looked up before tensing, seeing the large golden bird flying overhead, "..."

"D...Did we just see a giant bird that looked like a peacock mixed with a mythical phoenix?" Tsubaki asked.

"I-I think so," Noel nodded with wide eyes, "A-and it was trailing a rainbow behind it."

"..." the violet haired girl slowly blinked, trying to register what she just saw before she began to draw something on her notepad.

"...Okay. Not to quote really old movies here but...I don't think we're in Kansas anymore, girls…" Makoto whispered.

"H-Hai," Tsubaki agreed as the squirrel peeked out of Makoto's tail once more, looking to the east.

"Chipa?"

"What's wrong, girl?" Makoto asked before her ear twitched, "Something's coming."

"Huh?" Tsubaki blinked as she and the others looked at the squirrel girl.

"That way," Makoto pointed in the same direction her new friend was looking towards.

The four looked in the direction. After a few moments, they began to see a figure in the distance. A few more moments passed by to reveal it was a boy around ten years of age, tuffs of his black hair seen from under his red and white hat with a green symbol on the white part of it. He wore a green backpack with a blue short-sleeved jacket over a black shirt and blue jeans, all of which were covered in dirt and scuffed up along with the exposed parts of his body. He looked to be holding something close to him as he kept running in their direction.

"...A kid? What's he doing o-" Mai began before the boy ran past them, "H-hey!"

"Sorry! In a hurry here!" the boy called out as he ran, "I need to get to Viridian City!"

"...Did he say 'Viridian City?'" Tsubaki blinked twice.

"That isn't a city I've heard of," Makoto noted under her breath, "...Cajun?"

"I haven't either. Not even in the history books…unless…" the violet haired girl trailed off as her eyes slightly widened, "That wormhole...it transported us into a different world entirely."

"...WHAT?!" the other four screamed, the squirrel jumping out of Makoto's tail is startelement.

"A...a...another world?!" Noel exclaimed with wide eyes as she began to hyperventilate, "Oh my...oh my...o...our parents will be worried sick if they hear we've gone missing! Oh my! Oh my! Oh my!"

"And we don't have the slightest idea on if that wormhole can take us back," Mai frowned.

"That is if we can find it," Makoto added.

A somber silence followed as they tried to understand the new reality of their situation. If they couldn't find the wormhole, then they'd be stuck there...never to see their families ever again...stuck in this strange world.

"...Haa….look," Tsubaki spoke up, catching their attention, "I know it may seem futile right now, but...for now, we need to make the best of our situation…"

"...So what do you suggest we do?" Mai asked.

"I think we follow that boy to this...Viridian City," Tsubaki replied as she dug out a few coins made of platinum, "Maybe we could take these to a shop and get some of the local currency."

"Beats staying here and moping," Makoto noted as she moved her tail to let her new friend be before her, "Do you want to stay with us or stay here? I mean, it's your home, right?"

"Chipa!" the squirrel jumped out and nuzzled Makoto's cheek.

"...I think she's imprinted on you, Makoto," Cajun noted, "So I guess this means you have a new pet."

"A pet?" Makoto repeated as her squirrel went back into her tail, "...Huh. Neat. I always wanted a pet."

"Um...Girls? S-Shouldn't we get going after him?" Noel asked, "H...He's almost out of sight."

"Noel's right," Tsubaki nodded, "Let's hurry and follow him before we lose sight of him."

"Right/gotcha," Mai, Cajun, and Makoto nodded as the five girls began to run after the boy.

"Wait up!" the boy looked over his shoulder to see the girls from before catching up to him, causing him to trip on an exposed root.

"Ah!" he yelped as he tumbled and ended up on his back, "Ugh…"

"O-Oh my!" the shy blond gasp as she ran over to check on him, "A-are you okay?"

The boy grunted as he started getting up, holding onto whatever he had close to him, "Gotta...gotta get to the Pokemon Center…"

'Was...Was he attacked by a flock of birds?' Tsubaki pondered, seeing a few wounds that looked at if they had been caused by pecking.

"W-wait," Noel spoke as she cautiously placed a hand on his shoulder, "Y-you shouldn't push yourself too hard a-"

"I...gotta get to the Pokemon Center...Pikachu…" the boy grunted out as he stood up.

"Pikachu…?" Noel repeated whispered before she spotted what he was holding, her eyes widening further in worry, "Oh...oh my."

In his arms, barely breathing, was a tiny rodent, around the same size as Makoto's squirrel friend. It was covered in yellow fur with two horizontal brown stripes on its back. It had a small mouth, long, pointed ears with black tips, brown eyes, and two red circles on its cheeks. It had short forearms with five fingers on each paw, and its feet each had three toes. At the base of its lightning bolt-shaped tail was patch of brown fur at the base. It was in just as bad, if not worse, condition to the boy. It also had marks of birds attacking it, but also had burn marks on parts of it.

"What happened?" Mai gasped.

"M...my fault…" the boy replied as he began running once more, the forest path becoming a field.

"...W-wait up!" Noel called out as she ran after him, her friends following her as they ran through the field, Makoto's ears twitching as she heard something faint.

=Attention, citizens of Viridian city. Attention, citizens of Viridian City. We have possible reports of Pokemon thieves in the area. Be on the lookout for suspicious looking strangers=

'Okay...a group of girls in near-similar clothes running with a boy five years younger than them with a lot of injuries, carrying a yellow mouse that's also injured...yeah... not suspicious looking strangers at all…' Makoto mentally snarked.

"I...I think I see a city up ahead," Mai panted.

"It must be Viridian," Cajun noted before Makoto picked up the boy and put him on her back, "Makoto, what are you…?"

"Trust me," Makoto replied as they approached a building that resembled a tube with a police officer's hat on it.

"Hold it!" a voice snapped as the girls skidded to a halt.

Standing before them was a young woman with green-blue hair wearing a blue female police uniform, a red and white sphere on her right hip and a gun holster on her left.

"Please, ma'am, we're trying to get these two to the Pokemon Center," Makoto spoke quickly before anyone could say anything else, "We were caught in the storm earlier when we were taking a trip and we think they got hit by lightning."

"Hmm…" the woman frowned as she looked Makoto over, "Well...aside from your...unusual cosplay…"

'Cosplay?' Makoto pondered as the officer then looked at the boy and the rodent.

"Oh dear...Is this your Pokemon?" the woman asked the boy.

'Pokemon?' the girls pondered.

"Yeah. A...And we need…" the boy panted.

"Don't say another word. Just show me your ID and we'll be good to go," the officer assured.

"ID?" Tsubaki repeated under her breath.

"I'm sorry, but it is unusual for a Pokemon Trainer to be holding their Pokemon in their arms and not a Pokeball," the officer noted.

"Chipa," Makoto's friend spoke up, poking out of Makoto's tail.

"...That as well," the officer noted before seeing something in the boy's pocket, "Hey, what's that in your pocket?"

"H-Huh? Th...This?" the boy reached in and pulled out a red, rectangular device with a blue orb on an upper corner.

"This, this is perfect!" the woman beamed, quickly taking it and opening it up, "Let's see, if you're the real deal...then…" she tapped a few buttons and then showed it to the six, revealing the inside to be a bit like a miniature computer with a screen that was displaying the boy's face.

=I am Dexter, a PokeDex programmed by Professor Oak for Pokemon Trainer Ash Ketchum of Pallet Town. My function is to provide Ash information and advice regarding Pokemon and their training. If lost or stolen, I cannot be replaced. Issued Tuesday, April 1, 1997=

"Oh. My PokeDex. I didn't realize it was also my ID," the boy admitted.

"Cha…" he looked down at his Pokemon.

"Can I take Pikachu to the Pokemon Center please?" Ash pleaded.

"I'll get you there in no time at all," the woman smirked.

'I've got a bad feeling about this…' the majority thought.

'I think my little bits are tingling…' Makoto thought, liking the smile on the officer's face.

"Sit back, hold on, and don't yell," the woman advised before gunning the motor and the police car shot down the road, siren blaring.

"WHOA/WHOO/PA-CHI!" the group broke rule 3 as the police car bolted down the road.

"Normally, I use the police bike, but with the number of people…" the woman explained, 'So much for doing a dramatic entrance into the center…'

"This is awesome," Makoto noted in glee as her friend nodded on her head, the tiny squirrel's tail wagging.

"So where are you girls from? Pallet Town as well?"

"No. We're from the north, very up in the north," Tsubaki explained.

"We came down here for a vacation, but because we just recently finished our schooling, we ended up bringing our uniforms instead of normal clothing," Makoto added, 'Which is kinda true. I mean, we had to wear these even outside of the city during schooling…'

"Well, that explains the Pachirisu on your head," the officer noted, "They're not exactly native here in Kanto. Probably the reason you're wearing the getup, too."

"Oh, it's not a…"

"There it is!" the woman exclaimed.

"Huh?" Makoto blinked as she noticed a large building up ahead, 'I guess that's the Pokemon Center...wow. Pretty big.'

"It's gigantic," Ash whispered as the woman spun the wheel while hitting the break, causing everyone to yelp as the police car spun around and parked perfectly in one of the few parking spots.

"Everyone out and get that Pikachu to the nurse!" the woman ordered.

"Yes ma'am!" the others nodded as they hurried out of the police car and rushed into the building.

At the desk inside was a young woman with her long pink hair pulled into two loops, wearing a white and pink nurse's uniform, "Welcome to the Pokemon Center."

"It's an emergency!" Mai called as they ran up to the desk.

"Please, my Pikachu's hurt really badly," Ash explained, showing her Pikachu.

"We'll do what we can," the nurse nodded as she began to type on a computer, "I need a small stretcher for an Electric Type Pokemon STAT."

"Chansey," two voices spoke as they looked to see what resembled two pink egg-like creatures with nurse hats on rolling a cart over and stopped before Ash, "Chansey."

Ash laid Pikachu down gently on the stretch.

"It'll be okay," the nurse assured before looking at the two egg creatures, "Rush this Pokemon to the critical care unit."

"Chansey," both nodded as they made their way with the stretcher while the nurse began to put on pink rubber gloves.

"We'll begin the treatment right away," the nurse explained.

"Oh thank goodness," Noel sighed in relief.

"Now then, which one of you is the Pikachu's trainer?" the nurse asked.

"Um...me," Ash spoke up, "If there's anything I can do, please, just tell me."

"You can be more responsible."

"Huh?" Ash gawked.

"If you want to become a Pokemon Trainer, young man, you don't let your Pokemon battle until it's in this condition," the nurse scolded

"But you don't know what happened," Ash argued.

"What's past is past. Now we have to heal your Pikachu," the nurse frowned.

"But…" Ash began before Tsubaki put a hand on his shoulder.

"Do you have a medical kit I could use to treat his injuries?" Tsubaki asked.

"Right here," the nurse replied as she handed Tsubaki a kit, "Now just leave everything to me. Despite it's condition, you were able to get it here just in time."

"Thank you," Tsubaki nodded as the nurse went into the operating room, the light above turning on.

"...What a bitch," Makoto summed up.

"Makoto!" Tsubaki frowned.

"What? She didn't even let him explain what happened," Makoto argued, Pachirisu nodding in agreement.

"There wasn't time. I'm sure she'll ask about it once Pikachu is out of danger," Tsubaki replied as she motioned for Ash to sit on the bench near the doors, "Come on. Let's take care of these."

"...Okay," Ash nodded, worry still in his eyes, 'Pikachu…'

"That is one ugly bird," Makoto muttered, looking at the green bird that chirped when the clock on the wall turned to 8PM.

"Amazing...Simply amazing…" Cajun noted, writing down everything she could from entries she was listening to from Dexter-having been borrowed from Ash while he had been treated by Tsubaki, "Over a hundred and fifty entries...yet it doesn't seem to recognize Pachirisu."

"Maybe because it hasn't been registered yet?" Mai suggested.

"Mmm…" Noel tilted her head, looking at the array of green computers with a phone connected to them, "These phones look so strange." she noticed Ash sitting at one, typing a number on the keyboard while taking the phone off the receiver attached to the monitor.

=Hello, this is the Ketchum residence= a voice spoke from the phone.

"Hello, mom?" Ash greeted as Noel peeking to see the screen showed 'AUDIO ONLY' on it.

=Oh!= the voice gasped before the screen turned on, revealing a beautiful woman possibly not even in her early thirties with long red/auburn hair and the same eyes as Ash in a pink bathrobe =Oh, hi, honey. Is everything okay? Where are you, Ash?=

"The Pokemon Center in Viridian City."

=You're already in Viridian City? It took your father four days to get there when he started Pokemon Training= Ash's mother noted in joy =Oh, I'm so proud of you. You're the apple of my eye=

"Yeah...a rotten apple," Ash sighed.

=Oh, Ash. Don't get discouraged. You're doing fine= she encouraged =Honey, you're growing up right before my eyes, spreading your wings and soaring like a Spearow= Noel noticed the flinch/cringe Ash made at that last statement.

"I feel more like a fallen Pidgey."

=I won't let you talk about yourself that way!= his mother informed =Just be confident! You can do anything you set your mind to. Do you understand?=

"...yes."

=And are you changing your underwear everyday?=

"Yes," Ash blushed.

=Okay= his mother smiled gently and gave a small wave =Good night, son. I love you=

"Me too, mom….bye," Ash waved back as the screen went dark just as he hung up.

"W...Was that your mother?" Noel asked.

"Yeah…"

"S...She looked really beautiful…" Noel noted.

"...Th-thanks...I…" Ash began before he spotted something, "..."

"Hmm?" Noel blinked for a moment before she looked in his general direction, seeing what looked like four stone carvings; three of them depicting bird like creatures while the other depicted a lion-dog of sorts, "...Oh! That blue stone…"

"It looks like the Pokemon I saw," Ash whispered.

"That's an Articuno," the two looked over at Cajun as she handed Ash his Pokedex back, "From what 'Dexter' said, it's a Legendary Pokemon of Ice, capable of creating blizzards by freezing the moisture in the air."

"Eh? But...wasn't it golden?" Noel asked.

"Golden? Oh! You saw that bird Pokemon, too?" Ash asked.

"Do you mean this one?" Cajun asked as she opened her notebook to show the diagram she had made as best she could from memory of the bird.

"Oh! That's the one!" Ash gasped, "That's th-" the computer behind the counter soon went off, making him turn to look at it as it kept repeating 'ring ring ring! Phone call! Phone call!'.

"Well that's gonna get annoying fast…" Makoto muttered to herself as she and Pachirisu covered their ears.

"Chi-pa-chi," Pachirisu agreed as Tsubaki walked around the desk and pressed a button on the computer, causing the four panels to slide away to reveal a large screen that turned on, revealing an elderly man's lab coat-wearing back...with a ramen noodle set being cooked by a bunsen burner behind him.

"Um...Pokemon Center?" Tsubaki answered, "May I ask who is calling?"

=This is Professor Oak. Is there an Ash Ketchum here by any chance?=

"Right here, Professor. But I didn't recognize the back of your head," Ash noted.

=Eh?= the professor turned his head and saw the camera =Oops!= the screen fizzled and then settled to the right camera =Wrong camera. There=

"Smooth…" Makoto whispered, earning a light elbow from Mai.

=I just spoke with your mother= Oak noted, looking at Ash =And she tells me you've made it to the Pokemon Center in Viridian City. Is that correct?=

"I couldn't be talking to you if I wasn't here," Ash replied.

=You couldn't...oh! I see. I called the Viridian City Pokemon Center and you were able to answer=

"Yeah. Because that's where I am," Ash replied, a bead of sweat falling down the back of his head.

=Mm-hmm. I suppose that proves it= Oak nodded.

"Guy must not play with a full deck," Makoto whispered, earning another elbow from Tsubaki this time, "What is this? 'Hit Makoto with elbows day' in this universe?"

"Shh," Tsubaki hushed.

"Well, money isn't everything, Professor," Ash chuckled awkwardly as the girls turned back into the talk.

Oak slumped on the screen.

"But I did see a flying Pokemon along with these girls," Ash explained, motioning to the five, "It was a big gold bird and it flew right over the rainbow!"

=Hm?=

"I have a sketch of it with me," Cajun explained as she showed the picture to the camera on the computer.

=Hm? Really now? Well, this is surprising. Pokemon Trainers have spent their whole lives searching and never even caught a glimpse of this Pokemon= Oak admitted =Are you sure none of you are mistaken?=

"Nope. We saw it clear as day. It was big, gold, and made a rainbow as it flew," Makoto replied.

"Um...S-Sir? There's smoke behind you," Noel noted.

=Hm?= Oak looked behind him to see smoke =AH! My ramen!= he was about to get up before realizing he was still on the line =It was very nice talking to to you and your new friends, Ash. Good luck= he turned it off just as the fire alarm started going off.

"...Well…that happened," Makoto bluntly said.

"He seemed...nice?" Mai tried to compliment.

"Yes...but what he said about that Pokemon we saw…" Cajun trailed off as she looked at the sketch, "It has me curious now…"

"Uh oh. She's going Science Mode," Makoto's eyes widened as she held Ash close, "Everyone back away slowly and don't let her spot you."

"...Uh…" Ash began in confusion.

"Chipa?" Pachirisu tilted her head before her ear twitched and she looked at the doors to see someone coming in, "Pachi!"

"Huh? Wh-?"

"Now I got you!" the six turned to see a girl around thirteen with her orange hair pulled into a lopsided unbraided pigtail, teal eyes, and wearing a yellow sleeveless shirt that exposed her navel, jean shorts, and red straps connected to the shorts...carrying what had once been a bike but was now a smoldering heap, "I knew I'd find you here!"

"Hey, what happened to your bike?" Ash asked in surprise.

"Kinda looks like it got struck by lightning," Mai whispered.

"What happened to my...you happened to my bike, you little loser!" the girl snapped at Ash, "This is what's left after you stole it to save your Pokemon! Now I can see why your Pokemon is in th-" she couldn't finish as she began to lose her balance, the bike remains starting to become too heavy for her as she fell back, landing on her butt.

"…" Makoto snorted before she began to laugh, "Ah...That was so perfect. The timing and everything!"

Tsubaki shook her head as she offered her hand to the girl, "Do you need any help?"

"...Thank you," the girl nodded as she took her hand and stood up...before pointing an accusing finger at Ash, "And you! You're gonna pay for what you did to my bike!"

"But..I'll make up for it. I promise I will, really. But…" Ash paused as he looked away from her, "I can't do anything about your bike until…"

"Ugh! I don't want any of your lame excuses, kid! I just want a new bike right now!" the girl snapped.

"Wow. She's a bitch," Makoto whispered, earning another elbow from Mai.

"...It's my Pikachu," Ash spoke, causing the girl to raise a brow, "My Pikachu's not too good."

"Huh…?" the girl gasped softly, worry now evident in her eyes, "...Is it very serious?"

"I think so...and there's nothing I can do to help right now," Ash sighed.

"Kinda makes you feel bad about being so worked up about a bike, huh?" Makoto frowned at the girl.

"The light turned off," Noel spoke up.

"What?" the others looked at her before the doors opened, revealing the nurse as she and the Chansey's wheeled in Pikachu, the mouse wearing a contraption on its head with a lightbulb that was turning on and off.

"Oh!" Ash gasped as he ran over, the girl following after him as they stopped in front of the stretch, "Pikachu, are you alright?"

"Your Pikachu's resting right now. Like I said earlier, it's a good thing you got it here so fast," the nurse replied, "The procedure went well and it should be fine by tomorrow afternoon."

"Thank to the Pokemon Center, Nurse Joy," the girl noted.

"Thank you," Ash nodded.

"Now we'll be taking your Pokemon to the Recovery Room. Since you're its trainer, I think you should stay with it," Joy advised.

"Thanks," Ash nodded before looking over at the girl, "Listen, I'm sorry about your bike, but I'm gonna need some time to make things right."

"No way! I…" the girl began before sighing, "Look, you should take care of Pikachu now. We'll settle up later."

'...Oh I get it now….She's a tsundere,' Makoto thought, a devious smile forming on her lips.

"Would you like me to check on your Pokemon, miss?" Makoto looked at Nurse Joy, who was motioning to Pachirisu...who was munching on one of her chestnuts.

"Oh...well since we're here…" Makoto began as she carefully picked up Pachirisu.

"Chi?" Pachirisu tilted her head.

"It's okay, Berry. She's just gonna do a quick check up on you," Makoto assured her.

"Berry?" Tsubaki whispered.

"What? It's a good name," Makoto defended as she handed Pachirisu to Nurse Joy, "She will be okay, right?"

"Of course."

"Good," Makoto nodded before looking at Pachirisu, "Don't worry, Berry. Y-" her ears twitched for a moment as the alarm started to go off, "...Now what?"

=Your attention, please! Our Viridian City radar sensors have detected an aircraft belonging to a gang of Pokemon thieves! If you have a Pokemon in your possession, exercise extreme caution!=

"Pokemon thieves?" Tsubaki gasped.

"Oh no..wh-" Noel began before the sound of glass shattering caught their attention, looking up to see a pair of red and white spheres fall to the floor, "...Eh?"

The sphered glowed and transformed before their eyes. In their places were a purple snake with a yellow ring near its head, a yellow rattle, and yellow eyes and what could best be assumed to be a chunk of purple rock that was expelling a purple smoke from the craters on it with a face and a skull and crossbones under its mouth.

"Ekans!" the snake hissed.

"Koffing!" the rock declared.

Cajun leafed through her notebook, "Those are Ekans, the Snake Pokemon, and Koffing, the Poison Gas Pokemon. Both are Poison Type Pokemon."

"Poison?!" Tsubaki gasped.

"Koffing…" Koffing spoke as it expelled gasp, covering the room in very dark green smoke. As it did, three figure's jumped down through the opening in the ceiling, the smoke shielding their appearance.

"What the?! Who are they?!" Ash gasped.

"Don't be frightened, little boy," a woman's voice mocked.

"Allow us to introduce ourselves," a man's voice added.

"To protect the world from Devastation."

"To unite all people within our nation."

"To denounce the evils of Truth and Love."

"To extend our reach to the stars above."

The smoke cleared to reveal two young adults before them. The first was a woman with long red hair slicked back and ending in a curve. The other was a man with shoulder-length purple hair in a dark shade than Cajun's, holding a rose. Both wore a white and black uniform consisting of a white shirt, a black undershirt, skirt/pants, and black gloves.

"Jessie."

"James."

"Team Rocket, blast off at the speed of light!"

"Surrender now or prepare to fight," James finished before a third figure landed between them.

"Meowth! Dat's right!"

The figure was a small, feline Pokémon with cream-colored fur that turned brown at the tips of its hind paws and tail. Its ovoid head featured four prominent whiskers, wide eyes with slit pupils, two pointed teeth in the upper jaw, and a gold oval coin embedded in its forehead. Its ears were black with brown interiors, and were flanked with an additional pair of long whiskers.

Cajun looked at her notebook, "Meowth, the Scratch Cat Pokemon. Strange...the image from the PokeDex had it on all fours, yet this one is on two feet and talks."

'It's like the legendary Jubei!' Tsubaki thought.

"Wh...what do you want?" Noel nervously asked.

"Isn't it obvious? We're here for the Pokemon," James replied.

"..." Ash frowned as he stood in front of Pikachu defensively.

"Oh don't worry, kid. We're not here to steal your little electric rat," Jessie stated.

"We're here for rare and valuable Pokemon," James added.

"Really? I was thrown off by that stupid 'hero' motto of yours," Makoto countered, making Team Rocket nearly face fault.

"Hero motto?!" Jessie exclaimed in disgust.

"How revolting," James scrunched his nose in disgust.

"What? It's true. You're supposed to be the bad guys, and yet you declared that you were gonna 'protect the world from devastation'," Makoto countered once more, "Also, 'To Denounce the evils of Truth and Love?' Seriously?"

"And you're wasting your time," Nurse Joy added, "Rare Pokemon? This is a center for sick, weak, and injured Pokemon."

"Well that may be so, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if we find a few little Pokemon gems among all the junk," Jessie smirked.

"You're starting to bug me," Ash frowned.

"You and me both," Makoto cracked her knuckles.

"Isn't that cute? The little kid and the cosplayer are bugged," Jessie taunted.

"Meowth! Den let's squash 'em!" Meowth declared.

"Koffing, attack!"

"Ekans, go!"

The two Pokemon lunged at them. Nurse Joy grabbed Pikachu's stretcher and began to pull him out of the way with Ash and Misty's help. The girls ducked or jumped to the side, avoiding the snake and rock that tore through the desk with ease.

"Whoa! Okay, that's surprising," Makoto noted.

"Indeed. So much for having a flimsy skin," Cajun noted, looking at her page on Koffing, "But it is volatile and there's a chance we can cause it to explode."

"E-E-Explode?" Noel meeped at that.

"...Oh shoot!" Makoto's eyes widened, "Berry's still with that crabby nurse!"

"Hey! The lights!" the girl gasped as the lights turned off.

"They must have cut the power," Joy noted before a bright light shined from Berry's cheeks, "Oh! That's Flash!"

"Pa-chi-pa!" Berry beamed as she hopped onto the stretcher and pointed forward, "Pachiri-pa!"

"Oh, you must be able to sense them, can't you?" Joy asked.

"Sense who?" the girl asked.

"Our own pika-power solution," Joy winked as the lights turned back on, revealing that nearby was a treadmill where a group of Pikachu were running with electricity coming from them into a device that went up into a tube above them.

"Oh, how adorable!" the girl gasped.

=A crisis situation has arisen= a nearby computer spoke as it activated =Initiating emergency PokeBall transport sequence=

"I hope those girls are okay out there," Ash noted, Berry hopping onto the stretcher.

"It shoots needles of poison?!" Makoto demanded behind the desk with the other girls.

"Actually, they're poison hardened into the shape of needles," Cajun explained, "It's rather interesting that it can produce so many so fast a-"

"Don't need the lesson right now, Cajun!"

"...Hmm…we need a Psychic or Ground Type. Those would be super effective against these Poison Types. Even a Steel Type would be effective since Poison Type attacks deal no damage to them."

The ground before them broke as Ekans erupted from it, "EKANS!"

*WHAM*

Ekans yelped as it was sent flying into the air and crashed into Koffing as it was flying by.

"Yeah!" Makoto pumped her fist, 'For some reason, I really liked punching that snake.'

"...Did...Did she just punch my Pokemon?!" Jessie snapped.

"Duh! What did you think I was gonna do? Get hit by that poison or be bitten by it?" Makoto scowled.

"Oh, you cosplaying twerp!"

"Koffing, use Sludge!" James ordered.

"Koffing!" the gaseous Pokemon declared as it threw up a burst of slime at Makoto, who yelped and jumped back.

"Hey! Do you have any idea how hard getting sludge out of my hair and tail is?!" Makoto demanded.

"Well consider it payback for attacking my Ekans, twerp."

"This coming from the woman who applies WAY too much make-up," Makoto countered.

"What did you just say?!" Jessie snarled, "Ekans, use Acid!"

"Acid?!" Makoto freaked as the snake upchucked a wad of green slime at her, making Makoto dodge to the side and let the slime hit the floor, causing it to hiss and eat away at where it hit, "Okay. Note to self; snakes throw up acid here."

"Koffing, use Smokescreen!" James ordered.

"Ekans, keep up the Acid!"

"Aw come on…" Makoto groaned, Team Rocket using the black smoke erupting from Koffing to start making their way to the back room.

"That's the last of them," Nurse Joy sighed in relief.

"Good. Let's hurry an-" Ash began.

"Koffing!" Koffing roared as it crashed through the doors, expelling smog as it crashed into the empty shelves.

"It seems that we're a bit late to get the ones in the PokeBalls," James noted.

"No matter. We can just take the ones that are…" Jessie began before seeing Berry, nuzzling her cheeks against Pikachu's, "What is that?"

"Why, I believe that's a Pachirisu. They're natives to the Sinnoh Region and highly rare here," James noted.

"Is that so…well then. I guess we'll just take it then."

"No way," Ash argued as he moved between them and the stretcher.

"You and what army, little boy?" Jessie taunted.

"The one I've got," the orangette replied as she pulled a PokeBall out of her red backpack, "Grab those two and get out of here. I'll handle these three clowns."

"Heh. That's pretty big talk coming from such a little lady," Jessie smirked.

"At least you're right about the pretty part," the girl countered, "Thanks for the complement."

"The girl thinks she's pretty," James noted.

"I agree with her. I think she's pretty, too. Pretty pathetic," Jessie smirked.

"Grr! I'll show you," the girl frowned as she reeled her arm back, holding the PokeBall, "PokeBall, go!"

The sphere landed and glowed before changing. Flopping about was a fish-like Pokemon. It had orange markings on its tail, back, and fins and a thin dorsal fin and long pectoral fins. Its caudal fin seemed to billow very much like a ballroom dress. Its circular eyes were blue, and it had pink lips and a long, white horn. Jessie and James raised brows as a bead of sweat fell from both of them in disbelief.

"Goldeen, return!" Misty ordered as the fish changed back into a Pokeball that shot into her hand.

"...That's...her best shot?" Jessie asked, unimpressed by the display.

"She's all washed up," James deadpanned.

"Ya know dat Goldeen can't swim on land, right?" Meowth asked.

"I knew that. I was just warming up," the girl countered with a grin.

"Warming up?" Ash repeated.

"Just get that stretcher out of here," the girl demanded.

"Oh right," Ash nodded as he ran over to the stretcher and pushed it out of another pair of double doors.

"I'm on it!" Meowth declared as he ran after Ash.

"And stay down, dammit!" Makoto growled as she pinned Ekans down with the ruined main lobby desk.

"Nice work, Makoto," Mai grinned.

"B-but...did you really have to tie him up?" Noel asked.

"Hey to be fair, it tried to wrap itself around me to bite my neck," Makoto argued.

"Git back here, ya twerp!" the girls turned to see Ash running out while pushing the stretcher with Pikachu and Berry on it, Meowth running after them.

"It's the talking Meowth," Cajun noted, "I wonder how it learned to do that…"

"Not now, Cajun," Makoto groaned before Ash yelped as he crashed into the ruined bike.

"...I knew that was going to cause some harm," Tsubaki facepalmed a bit.

"Chi-PA!" Berry shouted as she released a blue burst of electricity into Pikachu.

"Whoa!" Makoto yelped, "Berry shoots lightning?!"

"Interesting...that must means she's an Electric Type," Cajun noted as the attack ended.

Pikachu slowly opened his eyes, "PIka-pika…"

A series of cries were heard as the group of Pikachu that had charged up the emergency power ran out and jumped onto the stretcher, Berry quickly jumping off and landing on Makoto's head.

"So many…" Noel gasped as Jessie and James ran into the room, Koffing floating after them.

"Pika...CHUUUUUUU!"

"What are they doing?" Mai asked.

"I believe that Ash's Pikachu has the Ability known as Lightningrod," Cajun noted, "They're possibly using that to recharge him to help fight." she watched as a few bolts shot through the air and began to electrocute Team Rocket, "And possibly add on to that."

As the attack ended, the pile moved and Ash's Pikachu jumped on the top of it, the device still on his head.

"Pikachu!" he beamed.

"Pikachu!" Ash cheered, relieved that his Pokemon was okay.

"...D'oh. Do I need t' do everythin' myself?!" Meowth exclaimed, "That mouse is cat food!"

"Pika-pi!" Ash looked at Pikachu as he began to point at the bike, "Pika pika!"

"Pika pika?" Ash repeated.

"Pika!" Pikachu nodded.

"Pika pika power?"

"Pika!"

"...Oh! I think I get it," Tsubaki spoke up, "If Ash can generate enough speed with the bike, he could charge Pikachu further."

"What?!" Meowth sweated as Ash began to pedal the bike upside down, the light on it managing to turn on by the pedaling.

"Pika!" Pikachu jumped over the bike, one of the cables that broke from his jump landing right on the light and sent the electricity generated into him.

"Well, let's just say that Pikachu and Ash are going to generate a little shocking surprise for you," Makoto grinned.

"Makoto…" Tsubaki groaned.

"Would you rather I go with 'It looks like Team Rocket is about to blast off' while putting a pair of sunglasses on?"

"...fair point."

"Pika, pika. PIKACHU!" Pikachu screamed as he fired a large bolt of lightning at Team Rocket, even striking the downed Ekans.

"KOFFING!" Koffing screamed, releasing its gas.

"Oh sh…" Mai's eyes widened as the lightning struck the gas.

"DUCK FOR COVER!"

*BOOM!*

"Too late!" the officer gasped as she skidded her motorcycle to a halt as she looked at the pillar of flames and smoke that came from the center, "But not for the fireworks."

Unaware to her, a balloon shaped like Meowth floated away from the area.

"Oh, just great. A cat losing to a mouse," Jessie groaned, smoke coming from her electrocuted body and clothes.

"Ta be fair; dat Pikachu is no ordinary Pikachu," Meowth argued.

"Indeed...it's certainly very rare...a perfect prize," James noted.

"Let's catch it! Along with that Pachirisu!" Jessie declared.

"Perhaps we will," Meowth agreed before hearing a pop, "...Da balloon burst."

"Wh-?!" Jessie and James began before the balloon began flying erratically through the air, the three screaming as it flew through the night sky.

=Your Viridian City Pokemon were transported here safely= Nurse Joy informed on the remaining functional computer within the wreckage that had been the Pokemon Center...with Nurse Joy sitting at it.

"Thanks, sis," Joy thanked the Joy on the screen, "The trainers that helped save the Pokemon here-Ash, Misty, Makoto, Noel, Tsubaki, Mai, and Cajun-are all heading your way to Pewter City." she frowned, "That is if they can handle the Viridian Forest. It's hatching season for the Beedrill right now."

"Don't worry," the officer assured her, "From what I've seen, they can take pretty good care of themselves."

"Well, Jenny, I hope you're right," Joy smiled at the officer.

A pair of frightened screams erupted within a lush, expansive forest. Inside of it, Makoto sighed as Misty and Noel were hiding behind her, shivering with frightened looks on their faces while the latter was hugging Makoto's tail like a comfort device, especially with Berry poking out and patting her head.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Ash asked as he looked at the two.

"Look, over there!" Misty replied, pointing ahead.

"Huh?" Ash raised a brow as he looked at a nearby tree, seeing a green caterpillar Pokemon that stood at an inch tall, "Oh! It's a Caterpie!"

"That''s the Worm Pokemon...Worm Pokemon?" Cajun looked at her notebook, "...Ash, I'd like to lodge a formal complaint on this classification on the basis that it's a caterpillar, not a worm."

"Worry about it later, Cajun! Just please someone get rid of it!" Misty begged, "Bugs are disgusting and I don't like them!"

"Keep it away…" Noel whimpered, "P-Please do something…"

"All right, stand back!" Ash grinned as he moved towards it.

"...Ash, what are you planning?" Mai asked as Ash took out an empty, marble-sized Pokeball from his belt and pressed the button on it, causing it to expand to its normal size.

"...You're going to catch it, aren't you?" Tsubaki asked.

"Yep! This one's a piece of cake," Ash grinned before turning his hat around, "PokeBall, go!"

'This is the new normal for us, isn't it?' Tsubaki and Mai thought.

"Professor Cajun's Pokemon Study!"

A curtain rose up, revealing a backdrop of a Pokemon Center. Cajun was sitting at a desk, wearing a lab coat. She looked at the 'audience' and smiled a little.

"Hello, everyone, and welcome to my Pokemon Study, where I talk about the main Pokemon of the chapter," Cajun introduced, "And today's special Pokemon is…"

A ding went off as Pikachu and Berry ran in, playing tag with each other.

"Berry and Ash's Pikachu," Cajun smiled.

"Pii?" Pikachu tilted his head.

"Chi?" Berry blinked twice as they jumped onto the desk.

"Pikachu is the Mouse Pokemon and considered the Mascot of the entire franchise," Cajun explained, "He's the 25th Pokemon of the National PokeDex and is a pure Electric Type. They evolve from Pichu who have a high friendship and then into Raichu with a Thunderstone."

"Pika…" Pikachu frowned.

"While Raichu is the stronger of the two, it cannot normally learn the moves Pikachu can learn, such as Agility and Quick Attack," Cajun continued, "Plus if a Pikachu were to hold the item Light Orb, it becomes just as strong as a Raichu, possibly even more. Also if one of a Pichu's parents was holding a Light Orb, there is a high chance it can learn Volt Tackle, one of the most devastating Electric Type moves."

"Pika-pika-pi…" Pikachu grinned as his cheeks sparked before Berry began to nuzzle her cheek against his, soaking in the electricity.

"And Berry is a Pachirisu, the EleSquirrel Pokemon, and number 417 on the National PokeDex," Cajun went on, lightly petting both, "Two Pachirisu tend to rub their cheeks against each other to try to share stored electricity. It's rather interesting that both Berry and Pikachu have electrical sacks in their cheeks."

"Chi-Pa!" Berry smiled at that.

"As its classified name implies, Pachirisu is a Pure Electric Type like Pikachu, and can learn various Electric Type moves," Cajun went on, "However, Pachirisu can learn other types of moves as well, such as Grass Knot and Iron Tail to help deal with Ground and Rock Types."

"Pi?" Pikachu looked at Berry, who smiled.

"Though both require a Technical Machine in the games," Cajun went on, causing both to facefault, "Then again, Pikachu are also able to learn those moves and the anime has shown us that it just needs practice to learn a move like Iron Tail…" she looked at the two, "Seems this calls for some research."

"Chu-pi-chu?" Pikachu tilted his head.

"Pa-chi?" Berry blinked at that.

"Oh no you don't!" Makoto shouted as she ran over, scooped up Berry and Pikachu, and ran off, "No Science!"

"Ah! Makoto!" Cajun called as she ran after her, "It was going to just be some tests!"

"No Science!"

"It'd just be a test on how their Abilities of Lightning Rod and Volt Absorb would react to an electric generator!"

"PI/CHI?!"

"Not taking that chance!"

"Makoto, you get back here!" Cajun called as the curtain fell.

GT: Well, that was rather enjoyable, though a bit sad on the part of our five otherworldly girls. They're stuck in an unknown world with no way of getting home filled with creatures of strange powers.

SZ: Indeed. Let's hope they find a way home soon…

GT: But until then, seems they'll be accompanying a newly started Pokemon Trainer, his Pikachu, and a tomboy.

SZ: Yup...and possibly dealing with a gang of Pokemon thieves.

Makoto: Wait, what? You mean we'll have to run into those three again?

GT: Well, you did tie up their Ekans and you now own an extremely rare Pokemon to the Kanto region.

Makoto: ...Please tell me they get arrested.

SZ: Nope. In fact, expect them a LOT throughout this story.

Makoto: ...Yeah. That doesn't sound like a bunch of stalkers.

GT: Very determined ones, too.

Makoto:...yeah. I'm just gonna go head back to my trailer until the next chapter…*walks off*

GT: You do that. Until next time, everyone. I am GammaTron and this is Seanzilla115.

SZ: And we bid you all a good day.

GT: And Read and Review!
