Dreamers of Myths & Legends Chap.9-Scorbunny: The Wild Child

Here is the next chapter and Part 2 of the Galar Story. I’ve been on a Pokemon kick lately and have been setting up future chapters for this AU. I have scripts up to Chapter 14, but I’ve been focused on other fanfics and work to set them up properly. Also I’d rather take things one step at a time, but I’m excited for these chapters to drop.

Big thanks to my beta reader @gigilefache

Enjoy!

Danica was in the kitchen preparing the vegetables for lunch while her Lillipup and Yamper were playing around nearby. Until that is, the three heard calls from her son.

“Mom! Mom! We have an emergency!” Lewis yelled, as he came through the door.

Danica left the kitchen and ran to Lewis, hugging her son tight. “What happened? Did you get hurt by a wild Pokemon? Fell and scraped your knee?” Danica was frantically asking questions if her son got hurt while Lewis muffled and tried to pull away from his mom’s embrace.

“No mom!” Lewis muffled, as he gently pushed her away. “It’s not me, but Sara’s Skiddo.”

Danica and Lewis turned to Sara holding Skiddo’s Pokeball. Her Piplup stood by her as he rubbed her leg for comfort. Wiatt and Oliver approached, both also worried for the young girl.

“What happened?” Danica asked.

“We ran into a Scorbunny and it attacked Skiddo.” Oliver answered.

Danica frowned and walked over to Sara. “Sara, could you send out your Skiddo?” She asked, causing the young girl to look up. “I just want to see her injuries.”

Sara nodded, and opened up Skiddo’s Pokeball. Once Skiddo was out, she looked exhausted, still in pain from the injuries from the burn she suffered.

Danica kneeled down and looked at the Mount Pokémon. “She looks burnt,” she said. “Lewis, get my medical kit.”

Lewis nodded and went to another room to grab the medical kit. As he was grabbing the kit, Danica checked Skiddo’s injuries again and remembered mentio's remark.

“Oliver, did you mention a Scorbunny did this?” Danica asked.

Oliver looked at the older woman and nodded.

Danica sighed, “not again.”

“Wait, mom you know about the Scorbunny?” Lewis asked, as he came in with the medical kit.

Danica nodded. Not a moment too soon, she started to treat Skiddo as she simultaneously ready to tell the story too her son and his friends. The four sat down listening to the older woman. “Scorbunny is well known in the Wild Area. I met him a month after you left on your journey Lewis.”

Flashback: 1 Month after Lewis left for Kanto

“I found him after releasing the Rookiedee and Nickit we took care of before you left.”

After Danica released the two Pokemon, she heard the grunts of pain coming from behind the bushes. She turned around and saw Scorbunny limping and covered in bruises. Danica was horrified and went over to the fire-type Pokemon.

“Who did this to you?” Danica asked.

Scorbunny turned away, but flinched at the pain he was in.

Carefully, Danica held him and took him back to her house to get the Rabbit Pokemon treated. At home, she bandaged up the fire-type Pokemon and saw him glare at the window. 

“I treated for his injuries back home, but I wondered what kind of battles this Scorbunny was getting into.” Danica explained. “After this Scorbunny would come back injured, and soon many Pokemon in the Wild Area were injured thanks to Scorbunny.”

Danica was picking berries and saw an injured Nickit, Wingull and Bunnelby. She went over to the three Pokemon before hearing Scorbunny laugh. She looked over at him as the fire-type Pokemon smirked and ran off, eating a berry.

Flashback ends:

“So, Scorbunny has been getting into fights with Pokemon?” Oliver asked.

Danica nodded, “yes, I wonder if the Pokemon who gave him the injuries the first time we met sparked his attitude.” She wondered, as she finished bandaging up Skiddo.

“It’s possible.” Wiatt replied. He then looked at Oddity, “I wonder if the noises we heard earlier were Scorbunny intimidating him.”

“Eevee.” Oddity agreed.

Danica smiled seeing Skiddo was done being treated. “There. Sara, your Skiddo is going to be just fine.”

Sara smiled and got up as she went over to her Pokemon. The Mount Pokemon bleated happily as Sara hugged her tight. “Oh I’m glad you're okay!” Sara beamed.

Skiddo bleated in reply as she licked her trainer’s face, causing her to laugh.

Lewis and Wiatt smiled, but saw Oliver frowning. “Oliver.” Wiatt started.

“Are you okay darling?” Lewis asked.

The taller boy did not respond, as he was thinking about Scorbunny. He wondered why the Pokémon acted so violently, and if the fire-type wasn’t going to tell him, he’ll find a way, nicely. Oliver got up and went over to the kitchen and picked up an Oran Berry they collected earlier. He then walked towards the door.

“Where are you going?” Wiatt asked.

“I’m going to find Scorbunny.” Oliver replied.

The group looked shocked, but Sara was angry that Oliver wanted to give that mischievous Pokemon a chance. “After what Scorbunny did to my Skiddo, you want to become friends with it?” She asked, growling a bit.

Oliver glared back, “yes, I need to know why Scorbunny acts like this.” Oliver opened the door and stepped out, but before he left he glanced back at his friends. “Besides, I’m the only one who doesn’t have a Pokemon yet.” Oliver then left the house as everyone looked at each other.

Back at the Wild Area, Scorbunny had three pebbles beside him ready to kick towards an Apple tree. He kicked one, which only swung the apples in the tree back and forth. The second one he kicked hit an apple, but still it didn’t fall. The final pebble, Scorbunny kicked hard enough, causing his Ember attack to activate and burning the apple to the crisp.

Scorbunny sighed seeing he wouldn’t get to enjoy an apple after all.

“Scorbunny!” Oliver yelled.

“Scor?” Scorbunny asked as he turned around and saw the taller boy. The Rabbit Pokemon glared at him and growled, “Scorbun…”

“Scorbunny wait. I’m not here to fight you.” Oliver reassured him.

Scorbunny continued to growl and started to walk towards him. Oliver didn’t step back, and quickly grabbed the Oran Berry from his pocket, causing Scorbunny to stop and stare at the boy.

“See, I’m just trying to be nice.” Oliver said. “I know what you did with Sara’s Skiddo was wrong, but I want to understand why you did that.”

Scorbunny cautiously walked towards the taller boy, but didn’t take the berry. “Scorbunny,” he said.

“It’s alright, you can take it.” Oliver reassured him. “I’m not going to hurt you, I just want to talk to you.”

Scorbunny narrowed his eyes and grabbed the berry and took a bite out of it. He turned away as he ate the berry.

Oliver smiled and sat next to Scorbunny, “now, I need to know why you did what you did.”

Scorbunny took a glance at Oliver, continuing to eat the berry. He didn’t respond, and turned away.

Oliver frowned, and remembered what Danica said about Scorbunny. “Did someone hurt you?” He asked.

Scorbunny’s eyes widened, and nodded.

“I’m sorry that happened to you, but that doesn’t give you an excuse to hurt other Pokemon.” Oliver said.

“Scorbun.” Scorbunny groaned.

Oliver sighed, “listen. I’m offering to be your friend Scorbunny.”

“Scorbunny!” Scorbunny exclaimed, turning to Oliver. He wasn’t sure if the taller boy was telling the truth, but in reality Scorbunny was lonely, and loved the idea of companionship.

Oliver looked into Scorbunny’s eyes and sighed. He went into his pocket and pulled out a photo. “You know, you remind me a lot of my younger brother.”

Scorbunny turned to see a photo of a young boy and girl who appeared to be twins. “Scorbun.” Scorbunny said, pointing at the boy.

Oliver nodded and chuckled, “yeah you're both stubborn and pranksters.”

The fire type glared and puffed up his cheeks, which made Oliver laugh.

“Yep, your most definitely like Ben.”

Scorbunny sighed, and smiled and the tall boy. He thought to himself and saw Oliver wasn’t so bad. He was pretty cool. Plus he did give him a berry. Suddenly, the fire-type’s ear twitched, hearing something in the distance. “Score! Scorbun!” Scorbunny exclaimed.

“What’s wrong Scorbunny?” Oliver asked.

Scorbunny looked around as his ear continued to twitch. He immediately ran to where the commotion was going on. Oliver put the photo back into his pocket, and followed behind. after a bit of running the two were horrified at what they saw. Two Rookiedee, a Wooper, and a Minccino were caught in a net and was dragged through the bushes.

Angry at whoever was doing this, Oliver and Scorbunny looked at each other and nodded as they went through the bushes. Oliver gasped and stopped the fire-type from getting further. “Scor?” Scorbunny asked.

“Shh.” Oliver shushed Scorbunny as the two saw who stole the Pokemon; Team Rocket.

Meowth laughed as the captured Pokemon were put inside the back of an Ariados robot. “See, I told you our Robo-Ariados can shoot nets up to miles away and store them safe and sound until we see the boss.” He explained. Inside the robot, there were many Pokemon including the ones just captured inside shaking in fear.

“Brilliant Meowth!” Jessie exclaimed. “Shall we stop for today and get going?”

Meowth smile proudly, “we can take a break once we find the twerps’ Pokemon.”

Oliver growled and glared at that claim.

James, however, was concerned about the idea, “are you sure about that Meowth?” He asked. “We’ll get caught if we keep sneaking around stealing Pokemon.”

“Nah, don’t worry!” Meowth reassured his friend.

Jessie then spoke up, “May I remind you, were in the Wild Area. If we get caught here, we can just go to another part of the Wild Area. We hide, steal more Pokemon, rinse and repeat!”

James thought about it for a second, before liking the idea, “I guess that doesn’t sound too bad.”

“Not only that it will show the whole of Team Rocket that we’re not a bunch of quitters!” Meowth exclaimed.

“Wobbuffet!” Wobbuffett exclaimed as well.

“Team Rocket!” Oliver yelled, coming out of the bushes.

Team Rocket stopped and turned to see the taller boy and Scorbunny glaring at them. “Release those Pokemon now!”

“Scorbunny! Scorbun!” Scorbunny yelled.

Team Rocket chuckled before getting into their motto. “Prepare for trouble twerp, you're a bit late!” Jessie started.

“And make it double, while we instigate!” James exclaimed.

“To protect the world from devastation!” Jessie continued.

“To unite all peoples within our nation.” James continued.

“To denounce the evils of truth and love.”

“To extend our reach to the stars above.”

“Jessie!”

“James!”

As Team Rocket continued their motto, Scorbunny yawned. He looked down at the pebble and looked up at Team Rocket with a smirk. “Scorbunny!” Scorbunny exclaimed, kicking a pebble at Meowth before he could finish his part of the motto.

“Meowth, that’s-ah!” He screamed being knocked to the ground.

“Wobbuffet?” Wobbufett asked.

Meowth got up, now with a bump on his head. “Hey, don’t just kick rocks at me while we do the motto, Long Ears!” He yelled.

“Scorbunny! Scorbun bun.” Scorbunny replied.

Meowth gasped, putting his hand to his chest as he was offended at what he was just told. “I can’t believe you said that!”

“What did he say?” Jessie asked.

“He called our motto ridiculous.” Meowth cried.

Jessie and James dramatically gasped. “How dare you insult our motto?!” Jessie exclaimed.

“We’ve been doing this motto for a long time with new revisions!” James added.

Scorbunny yawned in reply.

“Don’t just yawn and ignore us!” Jessie yelled.

“Scorbun. Scorbunny.” Scorbunny said.

Meowth growled, “I don’t care if you lived here longer, we won’t be sass-talked by a twerp!”

“Scorbunny.” Scorbunny replied. “Scor.”

The Scratch Cat Pokemon gasped hearing Scorbunny just insult him causing him to burst into flames. “That’s it!” Meowth yelled. “Jessie, James get your Pokemon out and lets teach this twerp a lesson!”

“Fine by me!” Jessie replied. “Go, Seviper!” Jessie threw her Pokeball and out came her Seviper.

Seviper hissed upon coming out of their Pokeball.

“Inkay, let’s go!” James yelled as he sent out his Pokemon.

“Inkay!” Inkay beamed.

Oliver realized he was out numbered, but heard Scorbunny call out to him. “Scorbunny!”

“Huh?” Oliver asked.

“Scorbun. Scorbunny.” Scorbunny replied, reassuring the taller boy that he could battle these two on his own.

Oliver nodded, putting his trust in the Rabbit Pokemon. “Alright, let’s do this.” Oliver said, ready to battle Team Rocket.

“Scorbun.” Scorbunny said.

“Seviper use Bite!” Jessie commanded.

Seviper hissed as they made their way towards Scorbunny.

“Dodge it, Scorbunny!” Oliver commanded.

Scorbunny jumped upwards, missing the Fang Snake Pokémon. The latter kept trying to catch the fire-type Pokemon, but Scorbunny was just too fast for them.

“Inkay, use Psybeam!” James commanded.

“Inkay!” Inkay shrieked as he used his head to launch Psybeam at Scorbunny.

The fire-type missed the attack, and the Psybeam hit Seviper. The poison-type Pokemon hissed in pain as the psychic attack caused major damage on them.

“Seviper, catch that brat with your Poison Tail!” Jessie commanded.

“Sev…iper!” Seviper shouted as their tail started to glow purple and was ready to swing it on Scorbunny.

“Dodge it, quick!” Oliver commanded.

Scorbunny jumped up again missing the attack, however the attack hit Inkay.

“Inkay!” Inkay screamed in pain.

“Inkay, no!” James yelled.

Inkay crashed into the ground, injured from the attack.

Scorbunny landed on the ground as he rubbed his nose and gave a confident smile.

“Wow.” Oliver commented, blinking in surprise. “Your good at this Scorbunny.”

“Scorbun. Scorbunny.” Scorbunny replied.

Seviper then came from behind Scorbunny, and the fire-type didn’t notice it.

“Scorbunny, look out!” Oliver shouted.

Scorbunny turned to see Seviper trying to grab him. He tried to jump to miss the attack, but Seviper quickly snatched Scorbunny and held him tight. The fire-type struggled to break free from Seviper’s grasp.

Team Rocket laughed, happy that they captured the fire-type Pokemon.

“Let him go Team Rocket!” Oliver yelled.

“For being a smart mouth to Team Rocket, and being a twerp? No way!” Meowth yelled.

Oliver growled, trying to figure out what to do. He had no other Pokemon, and Wiatt and the others were still at Lewis’s house.

“Eevee!”

Oliver gasped, hearing a call of an Eevee. A familiar Eevee to be exact.

Suddenly, a Shadow Ball appeared and hit Seviper, causing them to let go of Scorbunny. The fire-type landed with ease, shocked that he was saved.

“Oliver!”

Oliver turned around and saw his friends and their Pokemon ready to join the fight. “You guys made it!” He yelled.

“Hey, we saw what was going on, darling.” Lewis started.

“Meow.” Sprigatito added.

“We’re not missing out on taking down Team Rocket!” Wiatt exclaimed.

“Eevee!” Oddity exclaimed as well.

Scorbunny was shocked to see everyone else help him and Oliver. He then felt vines help him up, which belonged to Skiddo. He was surprised that out of everyone, Skiddo was willing to forgive and help him to his feet.

Skiddo belatedly tells Scorbunny I'm a language only pokemon could understand that despite him being a jerk, she forgives him, but only a little bit.

Scorbunny chuckled in reply. He then looked to see Oddity and Sprigatito who stood beside him and Skiddo preparing to battle Team Rocket.

Jessie, James  and their Pokemon look horrified seeing they were unmatched four to two.

“Well, this is going to be fun.” Meowth said.

“How come, Meowth?” James asked as he and Jessie looked down at their small friend.

“We defeat them, and we steal their Pokemon, too.” Meowth answered.

Jessie and James smiled hearing the idea. “Now that cheered me up!” Jessie exclaimed.

“Wobbuffet!” Wobbuffet exclaimed.

“Oddity, use Shadow Ball on Inkay!” Wiatt commanded.

“Sprigatito, use Leafage on Seviper!” Lewis commanded.

The two heroic Pokemon used their attacks on the two evil Pokemon, dealing massive damage. However, the opposition still stood strong.

“Seviper, use Poison Tail!” Jessie commanded.

“Inkay, use Foul Play!” James commanded.

Seviper’s tail glowed purple, ready to swing it at Sprigatito while Inkay was attempting to grab Oddity.

“Skiddo, grab the Pokemon with Vine Whip!” Sara commanded.

Skiddo bleated as a pair of vines came from her neck as she grabbed Seviper and Inkay before swinging them and throwing them at Meowth. The three Pokemon were then thrown at the machine chest where the Pokemon were stored, causing it to crack.

“Alright, Scorbunny, use Ember!” Oliver commanded.

“Scor!” Scorbunny yelled. The fire type Pokemon used a pebble and kicked it around until it burst into flames. The Ember attack hit the machine, cracking it even more.

“Okay, Scorbunny, use Quick Attack!” Oliver commanded 

“Use Quick Attack too Oddity!” Wiatt added.

“Skiddo, help out with Take Down!” Sara added as well.

The three Pokemon ran, and at the same time, rammed into the machine, breaking it into many pieces. The Pokemon flooded out and quickly ran or flew away from the machine.

Team Rocket were in shock seeing all their captured Pokemon get away. “All our hard work is escaping!” Jessie exclaimed.

“Quick, let’s hop in the Robo-Ariados and catch them back!” Meowth exclaimed.

“Right.” Team Rocket replied.

The trio and their Pokemon bounced inside the robot as it started to move. Wiatt and his friends stepped back when the robot pointed right at them and their Pokemon. Team Rocket laughed, safe inside their machine.

“Alright, time to grab us some Pokemon!” Meowth yelled, as he pressed a button.

The Robo-Ariados formed a net on its spinneret ready to capture Oddity and the other Pokemon.

Scorbunny turned to his new friends in horror, then glared at Team Rocket. Scorbunny looked around and saw a rock and smirked. He sprinted towards the rock as his feet started to fire up, then he skid and kicked the rock as hard as he could, hitting the net of the robot and causing the net to burn to a crisp, an action that caused the robot to burst into flames. Team Rocket shouted in pain, “Hot! Hot! Hot!” as bits and pieces of the robot started to break off.

Scorbunny tried to run and dodge all of the falling debris, only to trip and fall. He turned and saw his foot was caught in the trap Team Rocket made. Oliver gasped seeing Scorbunny trapped as Team Rocket’s mecha was ready to blow.

“Scorbunny!” Oliver yelled.

Scorbunny struggled to break free. Team Rocket’s machine started to spark and blow smoke.

“If we don’t hurry, Scorbunny is going to get caught in the blast!” Wiatt exclaimed.

Oliver frantically thought of what to do, and his eyes widened as an idea came to mind. He went into his fanny pack and took out an unused Pokeball, “Okay, go Pokeball!” Oliver yelled as he threw the Pokeball towards Scorbunny. The Pokeball hits Scorbunny and opens, putting the fire-type inside as Team Rocket’s machine exploded. The Dream Quartet braced themselves from the blast.

Team Rocket now charred and defeated were being blasted to the sky. “Team Rocket’s blasting off again!” They yelled as they blasted off into the sky as a star twinkled.

The blast finally cleared away, and the Dream Quartet uncovered their eyes and looked up from the smoke. “Everyone okay?” Lewis asked.

“I'm fine.” Sara replied.

“Same here.” Wiatt added.

Lewis and his friends turned to Oliver, who stared at the Pokeball shaking on the ground. His friends faced the Pokeball too as a click was heard, successfully capturing Scorbunny. 

Oliver was surprised and went over to the Pokeball. He picked it up and gave a smile. Oliver threw the Pokeball in the air, “come on out!” 

The Pokeball opened and Scorbunny came out. He looked around, shocked he didn’t blow up into smithereens or blast off with Team Rocket.

“Are you okay, Scorbunny?” Oliver asked, concerned for the fire-type.

“Scorbunny?” Scorbunny asked. The fire-type looked at the taller boy and saw his expression. The Rabbit Pokemon looked at himself and saw not a scratch on him, which made him smile and put his paws on his hips proudly. “Scorbunny!”

Oliver sighed, seeing Scorbunny was okay. “Thank goodness.” He said. He walked closer and kneeled to the fire-type’s level. “That was cool what you did there.”

“Scorbun?” Scorbunny asked, tilting his head confused.

“Saving the Pokemon and stopping Team Rocket. You’re a troublemaker, but you're not a bad Pokemon.” 

Scorbunny’s eyes widened and teared up at the words Oliver said to him. He sniffled and wiped his eyes as Scorbunny jumped into Oliver’s arms calling out to him.

Oliver caught him and hugged the fire-type tight. He chuckled before letting go, “we’re going to be a great team.”

“Scorbunny!” Scorbunny exclaimed. However, his stomach started to rumble, causing him to laugh in embarrassment.

Oliver chuckled, “guess you're getting hungry?” He asked.

Scorbunny nodded in reply as his stomach rumbled again, making him embarrassed.

“Well we better head back to your house Lewis.” Oliver said, turning to his friend.

Lewis nodded, “luckily, we got all the ingredients needed and my mom started cooking when we left.” He explained. “It should be done now.”

“Well what are we waiting for?” Sara asked. “Come on, let’s eat!”

The group got excited as they ran to Lewis’s house to enjoy their late lunch. Upon arriving to the house, the smell of curry filled the room as Lewis and his mother cooked the meal together. Other than the curry, there were also some side dishes like bread and vegetables. “It smells so good.” Sara commented.

“I can’t wait to taste it.” Wiatt said, his mouth drooling a bit over how good the food smelled.

Lewis chuckled, “it’s almost done darling.”

Wiatt, Sara Oliver, and their Pokémon got excited. Soon, the timer rang and Lewis smiled knowing the food was done.

“Alright. It’s ready!” Danica exclaimed.

She turned off the heat and then put curry on a few plates with some rice. Lewis and his mom served everyone their plate, and for their Pokémon, special bowls of curry for them to try. Lewis’s friends eyes sparkled and widened at how good the food looked, and were excited to try it.

Lewis sat down between Wiatt and Sara and scooped up some curry in a spoon. “Well, dig in guys.” He said, as he took a bite.

Wiatt, Sara, and Oliver each took a bite of the curry, as did their Pokemon. However, as they kept eating, the trio started to sweat as their faces turned red. “H-Hot.” Wiatt coughed out.

Lewis who swallowed his didn’t feel the heat kick in, “it doesn’t taste that hot, darling.” He said, eating more.

“I-It’s not!” Sara coughed out. “This thing is burning my mouth!”

The group’s Pokemon except Oddity and Scorbunny were in pain from how spicy the curry was.

Danica took a bite out of the curry and chuckled as her face turned a bit red. “It’s spicy, but it actually tastes good.” She commented.

“H-How is it so…spicy?” Oliver asked, as he struggled to swallow the curry. He then heard a chuckle and looked down at Scorbunny, who ate the curry like it was nothing. Oliver glared, “Scorbunny, did you do something with the curry?”

Scorbunny smirked and pulled out a Tomato Berry.

“D-Did you add extra Tomato Berries to the curry?!” Oliver yelled.

“Scorbun.” Scorbunny replied, winking.

The group continued to cough and complain over how spicy the curry was, simultaneously scolding Scorbunny. The fire-type snickered as he took a big bite of his curry, and took joy thinking about how he would  enjoy his new life with his new friends.

Oliver Ketchum

After graduating from a Pokemon Academy in Viridian City at age 10, Oliver doesn't hesitate to start on his journey. He did mostly good at school, as he is book-smart and naturally independent. He has also paid close attention to his parents' battles all his life, so he decides to rely on strategy and logic rather than figuring things out along the way.

Oliver hates that other people consider him a pokemon-prodigy because of his legendary parents, because that couldn't be farther from the truth. Because of this, he tends to shy away from other kids at school, and spends most of his time alone. He prefers playing with the Academy's pokemon during recess, something that worries Ash and Iris. Rosa, May and Drew's daughter, is the only one Oliver feels 100% comfortable with.

Shortly after graduating from the Academy, Oliver befriends a wild Eevee. This particular Eevee is quite clumsy and indecisive, which Oliver finds relatable. They quickly become friends. Oliver and Eevee's journey is all about finding their own path.

Iris takes Oliver and Eevee to visit the Dragon village before they can start on their journey. After talking with the Village Elder, Oliver decides to travel around Unova and collect gym badges. Rosa quickly joins him (because Unova still doesn't have any contests. Rosa does not want to give coordinating a chance). Oliver's goal is to win the Unova League and meet Reshiram and Zekrom. Rosa wants to become a Pokemon Connoisseur (Cilan is her biggest idol.)

Oliver's first pokemon he catches in Unova is Vanillite. His motivation to catch an ice type is strong because of Iris' fear of ice types (Oliver wants to prove that he is completely different from his parents, after all). Vanillite is a sweetie and quite calm, but can be quite scary when angry

Scraggy is Oliver's second catch. He is competitive and quite possessive of Oliver (tends to quarrel with Eevee because of this). Scraggy is determined to evolve soon and loves to challenge other pokemon to battle.

Lillian Ketchum

Being 3 years younger than Oliver, Lillian is still a student. She does well at school and has many friends (other students and pokemon) She looks up to Oliver a lot, so she becomes quite depressed when he leaves to travel around Unova.

Ash feels bad for her, so he takes Lillian out of school for a few days after Iris and Oliver travel to the Village of Dragons. Ash has a meeting with the Elite Four of Kalos, and Lillian is allowed to tag along.

Lillian meets Espurr when she is playing outside with Pikachu. Pikachu is wary of Espurr, but Lillian takes a quick liking to him, and lets him play with her and Pikachu.

Ash is also hesitant to bring Espurr into the hotel when he comes to pick her and Pikachu up. He knows Espurr's powers are quite strong and not necessarily fitting as a 7 year old's first pokemon. He realizes he had nothing to be worried about when he gets to know Espurr better. Or has he ...?

Espurr is harmonious and shares Lillian's love of flowers. Although Espurr can't replace Oliver, Lillian mood improves as she has yet another friend to play with.

Mario Bros: "April Fools" (selectively Mute Mario AU)

April 1st, 2007.

     "Really?! A yellow flag has got to be an April Fools." Giovanni snorted towards the game that was on.      "That or the Ref needs glasses, right, Papa?" Tony laughed, his hands moving swiftly as he signed and spoke. From nearby came a gruff laugh as Arthur caught his joke. Before Salvatore could answer, the sound of the apartment door opening and crying reached them.     "Mar?" Giovanni got up as his wife entered with a sobbing Mario in her arms and a tearful Luigi trailing behind her.      "What happened, Ma?" Tony asked, kneeling and putting his arm around Luigi. Mario twisted his way out of his mother's arms and ran to Arthur who scooped him up and held him close as his nephew hid his face against the yellow checked shirt.      "Shh, kid, it's okay." his rough voice was soothing.    Marianna sighed, shaking her head. "A bully at the playground."      "He t-took my special card!" Mario sobbed, trying to sign at the same time. "He th-threw it in the fountain!"      "Not his Mime card." Giovanni groaned. "He takes that one everywhere."    Luigi tugged nervously on his loose green shirt. "Took my Eevee, too. Said it was jus' April Fools."       "I hate April Fools." Mario sniffled. The twins looked to each other, and Arthur lightly tapped Mario's shoulder to get his attention.      "That's not April Fools." Arthur signed and spoke. Mario rubbed his eyes, still sniffling. "It's not?" he tried signing, his tiny fingers trembling. Tony moved to sit beside them, pulling Luigi up onto his lap.      "Nah, kiddo, that's a mean trick." he signed and spoke. "April Fools is supposed to be fun and make everyone laugh, not just the trickster." Luigi took Mario's hand. "Do you trick people, Unka Tony?"      "Yeah, I have, so has your Uncle Art." Giovanni nodded. "But you boys knew better than to hurt someone, and you never destroyed things for a prank."

   A quick move from Tony and he made a quarter appear from behind Luigi's ear, making his nephew giggle and catching Mario's attention.      Wow, the seven-year-old signed, making the others laugh. He looked to Tony.      Coin? he fumble signed before tapping his own ear.      "Mmm, I donno kiddo, doesn't look like you have a quarter here..." Tony teased, giving Arthur a wink. "Oh! Wait, here's something." he flicked his fingers and a green heart appeared in his fingers. He handed it to Mario before reaching behind Luigi's ear and with a swift motion, found another green heart which he handed to Luigi. He then pointed to a spot on the hearts. "Pull that." he instructed.    The Bros did as instructed and found hearts unfolded to reveal five-dollar bills.      "How about we go down the street and you boys can each get a new pack of cards?" he offered. The Bros both cheered at this and Mario began signing 'thank you' over and over, making the twins laugh. Marianna smiled as she headed for the kitchen. "You boys can go after dinner. Tonight is olive and mushroom casserole with burnt toast and raw chicken."    Her announcement made Mario and Luigi start play gagging and protesting the meal until she peeked around the doorway corner, her eyes sparkling.      "April Fools, boys." This sent the twins and the bros into fits of laughter.      "That's a real April Fools." Arthur signed and spoke, still laughing.      "I think after what our boys have been through, pizza is in order." Giovanni suggested, drawing more cheers.    As Tony and Salvatore turned their attention back to the game and Giovanni joined Marianna in the kitchen to get dinner ordered, Luigi slipped down the hall before returning to the living room. Clutched in his arms were a plush Eevee, and a well worn out Mr. Mime plush. He handed this one to Mario, who took it and hugged it tightly before snuggling against Arthur. His uncle placed a tender kiss to his head, smiling as he looked to the plush toy.

     "Unka Art, he's like you an' me!" Mario gushed as he watched the cartoon. Talk hands! Talk Hands! he excitedly signed.

     "Want my card." Mario signed and spoke. Tony overheard and getting up, went to the kitchen.      "Hey Ma," he leaned against the counter, "I got a few buddies at the hobby shop, I'll see if they can get the boys new cards to replace the ruined ones. I think they keep their extras around to bargain with customers." Marianna's shoulders slumped with relief. "That would be wonderful." she reached into her front pocket and pulled out some cash. "Here. The boy's ma made him pay for the damaged cards with his allowance."    A wave of the hand. "Ah, I know the guys, they won't charge for the cards. But I tell you what, lemme use that and get em their favorite candy tonight. I remember the last bad April Fools Art and I had, I we both coulda used a treat after that day."      "What happened?"    Tony's mood shifted as he thought back. "Same as the boys, really. We were at the park, Art had just lost his hearing and was getting used to it. Local bully was there and convinced him he couldn't hear any of us calling for him. Had him in tears and too terrified to even get Papa to check if it was true. I found him hiding in the bushes, crying his heart out."    Marianna gasped softly. "What did you do?"    Tony pushed up on his glasses, grinning. "You remember the fight from A Christmas Story? I took the kid out just like that." he snapped his fingers. "It was the one time Papa didn't punish me for punching someone's lights out, and neither did Gio."    His sister-in-law let out a faint laugh. "I wouldn't want Luigi getting into it, but at the same time I wouldn't blame him. He was shaking when I got to them and I thought he was gonna pop!"    Tony shook his head. "Poor kiddo, I know that feeling."      "Thanks for treating them today, I really didn't want their day ruined."      "Ey, no prob."    Both were startled at thumping and laughter as the Bros took off down the hall to their room, Luigi talking excitedly about playing a game until dinner was ready.

   Later that night, the Bros were tucked into their bunk beds. While Luigi held onto his plush Eevee with his new card added to his pack, Mario was curled up in the upper bunk with his plush Mr. Mime beside his pillow, the new card was clutched in his hand.

I wanted to show of designs I made for my au ss*ec! This is all pre-box 31 stuff so most of these won’t end up canon to the au. It’s a role swap au and they are above/below the character they are swapped with. Here’s some random info for them all (and some extra characters) Even (Nego): Gp rep, trying his best, the trainer drew a blank on name ideas so named him because he was an even number of eevees she hatched, has the darkrai “mark of the legends” Blizz: Id leader, treats every brotherhood equally, besties with bolt (tempted to make the ship canon to this au), silly guy Bolt: on the trainers main team so they aren’t there very often, non-binary (the trainer knows because they would lightly zap her until she caught on) Sora: Id deputy, wears the soothe bell as a reminder of Dusk before he lost his memory, thinks she’ll never find love because of Dusks amnesia, in her room writing most of the time, Miku is like Jay if that makes sense? Flame: Lf dep, doesn’t do his job, apathetic and smug, just chilling tbh Rem (eve): full name is compromise, just a baby Dusk: Gp leader, loves learning new things (especially because of his amnesia) Dawn: Lf leader (brotherhood change because Flame can’t possibly be leader lol), popular like og Dawn, eyes glow purple Tide (Vay): name changed for the same reason og Miku’s did (I don’t know it), pretends he’s a superhero stopping evildoers in Kalos, purugly is in the pokeball on his cape Daisy: so stressed please someone help her, stays in her room most of the time, has several potted plants in her room Bow and Oliver are role swapped, Dennys role is replaced with a character named Oddball (even and odd funny silly), Night is a glaceon named hail

Dreamers of Myths & Legends Chap. 7- The Piplup Plan

Next chapter is here!

So I wrote this chapter while I was finishing up Chapter 6 because I got so many ideas for this chapter back when I was working on Chapters 3 through 5. I’m excited for this chapter as this one was fully planned before anything else PLUS we get a new Dreamworld character into the mix.

Big thanks to my beta reader @gigilefache

Enjoy!

It was a normal day at Eric’s facility. The man was typing away on the computer till he got an oncoming video call. He smiled seeing the call was from a student of his. He answered the call and on the video, the screen showed a young girl around Dream Quartet’s age, with blonde hair with her tips dyed blue, hazel eyes, and wearing a blue t-shirt, a red whistle around her neck, and a dark blue skirt.

“Hi Mr. Gale.” She beamed waving to her former teacher.

“Alyssa!” Eric beamed. “How are things in Sinnoh?”

“Great!” Alyssa replied. “I was wondering if Lewis and the others would like to join me on a special research at the beach?”

Eric smiled, he knew the four would love to travel to another region as they’ve been in Kanto for a while. “I’ll go and ask them.” He said.

“Alright.”

Eric got up and went to the observatory, where the four were going to work on training.

At the observatory, Ridley stood in front of Oddity, Sprigatito and Skiddo. The four were preparing to practice their combinations and attacks.

“Alright,” Carly said. “You ready Ridley?”

“Ai! Aipom!” Ridley replied.

“Good luck you guys!” Oliver cheered on the sidelines as he didn’t have a Pokémon himself.

The three Pokemon turned to their friend and replied before they prepared for their battle as their trainers stood behind them. “You ready darlings?” Lewis asked. The three Pokemon nodded ready to practice training with Ridley.

Ridley moved his paw, signaling them to “bring it on,” as Oddity and his friends smirked, ready to battle their friend.

“Ridley, let's use Swift!” Carly commanded.

Ridley jumped and launched stars from his tail as the three opposing Pokemon dodged the attack. “Sprigatito, use Leafage!” Lewis commanded.

Sprigatito’s neck glowed as she launched leaves over at Ridley. Who missed the attack, but Oddity was behind him ready to attack.

“Oddity, use Quick Attack!” Wiatt commanded.

Oddity quickly dashed towards Ridley, tackling him. The Long Tail Pokemon used his tail to skid the ground. Ridley chuckled, as Oddity growled.

“Skiddo, use Razor Leaf!” Sara commanded.

Skiddo then launched Razor Leaf at Ridley.

“Dodge it with Double Team!” Carly commanded.

Ridley made copies of himself missing Razor Leaf as they surrounded Skiddo.

“Sprigatito, use Scratch to remove the copies!” Lewis commanded.

“Oddity, do the same but with Buzzy Buzz!” Wiatt added.

Sprigatito’s paw glowed white as she jumped to scratch one of Ridley’s doubles, which disappeared upon touching him. Sprigatito was confused till another Ridley appeared behind her, scaring her. She let out a meow as she hissed at the copy.

Oddity used his electric type move to zap as many of the Ridley copies as he could only for Ridley to appear as each duplicate appears. The three Pokemon were cornered as no matter how much they attack, there will be more and more copies.

“Let’s attack together,” Wiatt said.

“Got it.” Lewis and Sara replied at the same time.

“Skiddo, use Vine Whip!” Sara commanded.

“Sprigatito, use Leafage!” Lewis commanded.

“Oddity, use Buzzy Buzz!” Wiatt commanded. 

The three Pokemon used their attacks together to take down Ridley’s copies, but each time one was taken down another appeared. As the Pokemon were attacking, the real Ridley appeared behind Oddity, which made the later gasp in surprise.

Carly smirked, “Ridley, use Focus Punch!” She commanded.

Ridley’s tail glowed blue and punched Oddity, knocking him to the ground.

“Oddity! Are you okay?” Wiatt asked, worried for his partner.

“Vee!” Oddity got up, not phased from being hit by a super effective move.

Wiatt chuckled, glad to see his buddy okay.

“I’m surprised to see Oddity was able to withstand Focus Punch,” Carly said, surprised.

“What can I say, my buddy is full of surprises!” Wiatt replied.

“Eevee!” Oddity exclaimed.

Carly smirked, “well, I’m guessing this practice lesson is just getting started!”

“Indeed it is darling!” Lewis added.

“Well then, Ridley, use Swift!” Carly commanded.

Ridley then launched stars from his tail at Oddity.

“Oddity dodge it, and use Copycat on Swift!” Wiatt exclaimed.

Oddity jumped and started to glow as he released stars from his tail as well. The two attacks collided with each other before exploding. The two Pokémon held their ground as the explosion pushed them back.

“Oddity, use Buzzy Buzz!” Wiatt commanded.

Oddity then launched his electric type move at Ridley.

“Dodge it!” Carly yelled.

Ridley jumped to dodge the attack, but Eric was coming by, which shocked Carly and Wiatt. The two panicked, warning Eric of the oncoming electric attack. “W-Wait Wait! Stop!” They shouted.

“Guys! I got some news for you all-ahhh!” Eric was cut off as Buzzy Buzz hit him, he was paralyzed, his hair was all over the place and a bit charred.

“D-Dad!” Carly yelled as she ran to him.

“Aipom!” Ridley yelled following Carly behind. The two went over and helped the man up.

“Are you okay?” Carly asked.

“I-I’m fine,” Eric replied, dizzy from the attack. “Wiatt, your Eevee’s attack is…shocking.” He let out a cough, causing Wiatt and Oddity to look at each other and chuckled nervously. The group decided now was a good time to end training.

The four headed back inside as Eric brushed himself off, and explained the four of their task. “So it’s been a while since you got your frist mission from me, and I figured it’s time for you to get another one.” Eric started.

Wiatt smiled excited what the mission was, before Eric responded.

“No, nothing on Mew yet Wiatt,” Eric added.

“Aww.” Wiatt sighed.

Sara chuckled, which made Wiatt glare at his friend. However, she quickly acted all innocent like she wasn’t poking fun at her friend’s dream.

“Actually, its an old student of mine,” Eric answered. “Lewis, do you remember Alyssa?”

Lewis’s eyes widened and nodded, “I do.” He replied.

“Well she’s inviting you four to Sinnoh to check out something she’s been researching,” Eric explained.

“Splendid!” Lewis beamed. “When does she want to see us?”

Eric chuckled, “today, your ferry ride to Sinnoh is in one hour.” He told them.

The Dream Quartet looked at the professor in shock before turning to the clock and see it’s already 10:30 am.

“Make that, half an hour,” Carly added.

The Dream Quartet quickly left the facility and ran off outside to catch the fairy boat to the Sinnoh region.

“Hurry! We’re gonna be late!” Oliver yelled.

“We’re coming!” Wiatt yelled.

Eric, Carly and Ridley watched as the four quickly dashed off, which made Carly speak up, “there they go.” She said.

In Jubilife City, located in Sinnoh, Alyssa waited at the port as the ship started to dock. There she saw people exiting off the boat, and waited for Lewis and his friends to board off the ship. It wasn’t long and soon Lewis and the others came off waving to Alyssa.

“Lewis! Oliver! Sara!” Alyssa beamed.

“Alyssa!” Lewis and his two friends beamed. The group ran to their friend, with Wiatt following behind. “How are you darling?”

“Doing great!” She replied. Alyssa turned to Lewis’s other two friends, “how have you guys been?”

“Great!” Oliver replied.

Alyssa smiled before turning to Wiatt, “you must be Wiatt and this must be your Eevee, Oddity?” She asked.

Wiatt nodded. “It’s nice to meet you Alyssa.” He said.

“Eevee!” Oddity replied. His eyes widened as Alyssa petted the Evolution Pokemon, which he enjoyed.

“Meow!”

Alyssa stopped petting Oddity and looked down to see Lewis’s Sprigatito, wanting to be petted too. The girl’s eyes widened as she saw the Grass Cat Pokemon. “Aww is this your Sprigatito, Lewis?” She asked, as she kneeled down to the grass-type Pokemon.

“Yep, she’s my little star,” Lewis replied.

Sprigatito blushed hearing her trainer’s nice words about her. Alyssa gave a soft chuckle as she pet the Grass Cat Pokemon causing her to purr.

“Pop?” A Poppio asked, as she pops up behind Alyssa. Sprigatito jumped in surprise seeing the other Pokemon.

Lewis and his friends gasped, “Alyssa is that your Popplio?” Sara asked.

Alyssa nodded, “this is Glory, she’s a sweetheart.”

Glory gives a proud smile as she put her fins to her hips.

“She’s so cute!” Sara beamed as she took her Rotom phone and scanned Popplio in her Pokedex.

Popplio, the Sea Lion Pokemon. A Water-Type.

Popplio can blow balloons from its nose. These balloons can grow as large as Popplio can make them with enough practice.

“Pop. Pop!” Glory replied, agreeing with what the Pokedex explained about her species. She decided to show off making one of her balloons, which quickly popped causing the group to chuckle.

“So,” Alyssa spoke up, calming down. “Ready to show you guys what I’ve been researching?” The group nodded in reply. “Great follow me to my car.” The girl lead the four to her car, a red Hummer, and once everyone was in, the young girl started driving.

While driving, Wiatt had some questions for the other researcher, “so Alyssa, what do you research?” He asked.

“I normally research water-type and ice-type Pokemon. I go into the oceans to explore and learn things about the Pokemon that live there such as migration patterns and habitats.” Alyssa answered.

“That’s amazing!” Wiatt exclaimed.

“Eevee!” Oddity added.

Alyssa smiled, and suddenly she got an idea. “Hey want me to go faster?” She asked.

“Huh?” Everyone asked in reply.

“How fast are you talking about?” Oliver asked.

“I’ll show you,” Alyssa replied. She pressed her foot on the gas gently, and drove fast. Not insanely fast, but fast enough to get to their destination quicker.

High above the sky, Team Rocket was following Wiatt and his friends in their Meowth balloon and using a pair of binoculars to get a close up of what the twerps were doing.

“So, where are the twerps going this time?” Jessie asked.

James looked up ahead and saw the beach, “seems like they're going to the beach.” He answered.

Meowth sighed as he put down his binoculars, “ah the beach sounds fun!” He beamed. “A day to relax and catch some sunlight.” Meowth then fantasized him at the beach lying down on a chair wearing a hawaiian shirt, sunglasses, sunhat, and drinking coconut milk.

However, Meowth’s fantasy was interrupted when Wobuffett and Jessie smacked him on the head. “This isn’t a vacation, Meowth!” Jessie growled.

“Yeah!” Jame spoke up, turning towards his partner, “We’re here to follow the twerps and see what twerpy adventures they have planned!”

“Wobbuffet!” Wobbuffet beamed.

“Cramo.”

Team Rocket’s eyes widened wondering who said that. They looked around, until they turned to see a Cramorant sitting on the edge of their balloon, blinking in surprise.

“Cramorant.” Cramorant said.

“Now what’s a Cramorant doing relaxing with us?” Meowth asked.

“Don’t know?” James replied.

Jessie growled and tried to shoo away the Gulp Pokemon, who missed every hit the female Team Rocket member try to throw at it, “h-hey move it you dumb bird!” She yelled.

Cramorant ended up flying away, but got its beak stuck on the Meowth balloon.

“Hey! Get off my face!” Meowth yelled.

Cramorant did just that, however that ended up being a mistake in Meowth’s part, and it left a giant hole on the Meowth balloon. “Big mistake!” Team Rocket yelled as their balloon blasted away, leaving a twinkle in the sky.

The Gulp Pokemon tilted its head in confusion before flying off.

Alyssa and the Dream Quartet finally made it to the beach. She parked her car to the side as the group got out and started walking.

“So what did you want to show us?” Wiatt asked.

Alyssa giggled, “you’ll see.”

The group turned a corner, and their eyes widened at what they saw. There a pack of Piplup was swimming and having fun on the beach. There were also nest with eggs as well.

“Are those Piplup?” Oliver asked.

Alyssa nodded, “I’ve been watching these Piplup for a month now, and figured you guys should check them out too.” She explained.

Wiatt pulled out his Rotom phone and scan Piplup into his Pokedex.

Piplup, the Penguin Pokemon. A water-type.

Piplup are known to be very proud. They are poor walkers, but excellent swimmers as they can dive for 10 minutes to hunt.

“So what are the Piplup doing here?” Lewis asked.

“These Piplup come from the coldest part of Sinnoh, once a year they come to this beach to raise their eggs and once they fully hatched,” Alyssa explained.

Soon, the group saw two of the Piplup eggs glowing, ready to hatch.

“And we just made it in time,” Alyssa said.

The egg glowed for a bit before hatching into baby Piplup. “Pip!” One baby Piplup said.

“Lup!” The other baby Piplup said.

“Awww.” Everyone said seeing the babies.

“I have got to show this to Celio!” Sara exclaimed as she quickly got her Rotom phone, wanting to get a photo of the cute water-type Pokemon. She got a little closer, ignoring the warnings from her friends.

“S-Sara we should stay here,” Wiatt warned.

Sara ignored Wiatt’s warnings, but at that point a bigger Piplup appeared glaring at Sara. The later stopped, and soon Piplup used Bubble Beam on Sara getting her wet.

“I warned her,” Wiatt said.

“Piplup! Pip!” The Piplup yelled, telling Sara to get off their land.

“S-Sorry.” Sara apologized. “I just wanted to take a photo.”

Piplup glared and was ready to launch Bubble Beam again before Lewis stepped in and dragged his friend back to where everyone was standing. However, Piplup still launched the attack getting everyone wet.

“Smart move Sara,” Wiatt said sarcastically.

“Vee Eevee!” Oddity yelled.

“Meow! Meow!” Sprigatito hissed, hating getting wet.

“Sorry.” Sara apologized. She then turned to Piplup who glared ready to launch Bubble Beam again. “Wait,” Piplup stopped as Sara spoke up, “I’m sorry again Piplup. We’re not trying to hurt the babies I promise.”

Piplup loosened up, “Pip?” He asked.

“I just wanted to take a photo of them, but I didn’t realize we were in your territory,” Sara said.

“It’s true,” Alyssa spoke up, causing Piplup to turn to the water-type researcher. “I do know your protective of your friends, but we’re not here to hurt any of them I promise.” Sara turned towards the girl surprised she knew this Piplup.

Piplup’s eyes widen, “Piplup.” He said. Piplup thought for a bit and sighed and loosened up giving Alyssa and her friends to get close to his friends.

“Thank you Piplup!” Sara beamed.

A star twinkled in the sky, which caused everyone to look up to see Team Rocket and their balloon crashing down into the ocean. Team Rocket groaned as it was a rough landing.

“Team Rocket!” Wiatt growled.

“What brings you three down here!” Lewis yelled.

Jessie groaned, “blame the oversized Pidgey.”

“Cramorant.” Meowth corrected her.

Jessie growled and hit Meowth over the head, “what Meowth said…for popping our balloon.”

The Dream Quartet glared at the villainous trio, but Alyssa and Glory were confused over who the trio were. “Who are those three?” Alyssa asked.

“Team Rocket,” Oliver answered.

“These three love to cause trouble,” Sara added. 

Skiddo, Sprigatito and Oddity growled seeing their enemies.

Even though they were villains, Glory looked up, “Pop! Pop? Pop!” She exclaimed getting her trainer’s attention as she pointed out that Team Rocket’s balloon was ready to sink. 

“Uh…do you three need help!” Alyssa exclaimed. Team Rocket looked up at the girl, “your balloon is ready to sink.”

The Dream Quartet looked shocked as their new friend mentioned she wanted to help Team Rocket. The latter glared hearing the new twerp wanted to help them. “No thank you!” James yelled.

“We don’t need help from twerps!” Meowth added.

“Yeah! We’ll be fine on our-” Jessie was cut off as the balloon started to fill with water and was now pulling Team Rocket deeper into the ocean.

“Somebody help us!” Team Rocket screamed.

“Oh brother…” The Dream Quartet sighed.

Later, the Dream Quartet pulled Team Rocket out of the ocean with help from Piplup and Skiddo. They sighed in relief seeing they were on land and not at the bottom of the ocean. “Thank you.” Team Rocket said at the same time.

“No…problem…” Wiatt replied, not impressed seeing he and his friends had to help Team Rocket.

Team Rocket got up and looked around see the twerps and the pack of Piplup. “Hey look at all the Piplup here!” Meowth exclaimed.

“Now what would a group of Piplup be doing here?” Jessie asked.

“They’re raising their eggs here. Once the Piplup eggs hatch they’ll go back to their home up in the northern part of Sinnoh.” Alyssa explained. Suddenly she felt a tap on her shoulder and turned to Wiatt.

“You sure you want to be telling them everything?” Wiatt whispered.

“Yeah those three are criminals and they steal Pokemon,” Oliver added, whispering as well.

“Yeah, but we just saved them,” Alyssa replied. “I doubt they would steal them after all we did.”

Wiatt, Oddity and Oliver sighed knowing this was going to be a bad idea.

“Wow! So this is the answer why Piplup swim south for the summer!” Meowth exclaimed. He then got pulled into a huddle by Jessie and James.

“This isn’t the time for jokes, Meowth,” James whispered.

“Yeah, were surrounded with a bunch of Piplup,” Jessie whispered. “Once the time is right we capture them and bring them to the boss.”

Meowth snickered, “the boss would reward us with being millionaires.” He said.

“Piplup?”

Team Rocket’s eyes widened to see the bigger Piplup coming into their conversation. They jumped in fear before glaring at the penguin Pokemon.

“Don’t scare us like that!” James yelled.

“Yeah!” Meowth added. “Weren’t you taught any better?!”

Piplup glared and was ready to hit Team Rocket with a Bubble Beam before he stopped and looked up at the sky. Everyone else looked up and saw dark clouds covering the sky as thunder rumbled and raindrops started to fall.

“Aww great! It’s raining!” Wiatt yelled.

However, it wasn’t just rain, but also a long gust of wind causing everyone to scream.

“Quick!” Alyssa yelled. “Follow me, my villa isn’t far from here!”

Before anyone could take a step, Team Rocket dashed passed Wiatt and his friends causing them to get dizzy. “You don’t have to tell us twice!” Team Rocket yelled at the same time.

The Dream Quartet shook it off and followed Team Rocket into Alyssa’s villa. A few of the Piplup followed the group behind the group except the bigger Piplup who stayed behind to watch the unhatched eggs.

Skiddo turned around and bleated, calling for Piplup to follow them.

Sara turned around to see Piplup staying behind, “Piplup!” She called out. Piplup turned to the young girl. “Come on, we gotta get inside!” She yelled.

Piplup shook his head and decided to stay behind to take care of the eggs.

“Piplup…” Sara said.

“Darling!” Lewis yelled. He grabbed Sara’s hand and took her inside as the storm got worse. “Come on, let's get inside!”

Sara didn’t struggle as her best friend took her inside to stay safe.

Once inside, Team Rocket sat in front of the fire and sighed with the warmth of the flames.

The Dream Quartet sat on the couch as two of the baby Piplup snuggled with Sara. She put a blanket over them to keep them safe and warm. “There, you're safe now.” She said.

“Piplup.” The baby Piplup said, thanking the girl.

Sara smiled and looked over at Skiddo who was also caring for some of the baby Piplup. “How are you doing, Skiddo?”

Skiddo bleated in reply knowing she’s fine taking care of the babies. She then saw Oddity and Sprigatito playing with one of the baby Piplup, who loved chasing Oddity’s tail.

Sara smiled till she saw Wiatt put a cup of hot chocolate in front of her. She looked up at her friend who sat down next to her along with Oddity. “Alyssa and Lewis made hot chocolate for us.”

Mewoth’s ears twitched as he heard hot chocolate, “ooh! Is there some for us?” He asked.

Wiatt glared, “no.” He replied.

“Yes,” Alyssa replied, handing the three villains their hot chocolate. 

Their eyes widened as they took the cups and took a sip. “Ah…This is life.” They said with a sigh.

Alyssa gave a soft chuckle. “Glad you like it.”

Lewis and Oliver got their hot chocolate as well and sat down with their friends. As the four drank their hot chocolate, Sara couldn’t help but keep glancing at Piplup who was watching the storm as he guarded the eggs.

“Alyssa,” Sara spoke up. Alyssa looked up at her friend the second she sat down. “You mentioned you knew about this specific Piplup.”

Alyssa nodded. “Since I started being a researcher and watching the Piplup migration, I’ve seen this specific Piplup being a bit different then the others.” She explained.

“Different?” Oliver asked.

“How so darling?” Lewis asked.

“Well, for starters it’s a bit bigger than the Piplup I’ve been watching. However, I don’t know if a trainer left this Piplup behind to take care of the younger Piplup or if this specific Piplup is the oldest out of all of them.” Alyssa explained.

As the researcher explained, Sara glanced at the window to see Piplup guarding the eggs while the rain poured down on him. “He’s so determined to protect the eggs,” Sara whispered.

“He sure is,” Alyssa replied. “He’s…ambitious in a way.”

Sara smiled as she can relate to being ambitious. She then looked at the baby Piplup that snuggled with the blanket she gave them. “You know the reason why I understand him is because I cared for Pokemon eggs before.”

“Really?” Wiatt asked.

Sara nodded in reply.

“Oh yeah, doesn’t your caretaker take care of baby Pokemon?” Oliver asked.

“Correct,” Sara replied. “Celio and I took care of so many baby Pokemon, they taught me everything I needed to know.” She remembered when her and Celio would feed baby Pokemon their food and keep an eye on the eggs to make sure they hatched healthy and safely.

The sound of the thunder and flash of lightning illuminated the room, causing everyone to cover their eyes from the flash. Some of the baby Piplup cried as Skiddo and Oddity comforted the little ones that it was just thunder and nothing else.

“Man this storm is getting bad,” Wiatt commented.

Sara saw the storm getting worse before turning to where Piplup was and saw he was struggling trying to protect the eggs. “Piplup is doing this all on his own.” She thought to herself. “However, if he’s not careful him and the eggs…” Sara’s eyes widened as she quickly got up. “Skiddo let’s go!”

Skiddo looked up at her trainer, and nodded.

“Darling, where are you going?” Lewis asked.

“I’m going to help Piplup!” Sara answered as she pulled a pink rain coat from her backpack as well as an orange one for Skiddo and put it on.

The group looked at their friend like she was crazy. “You're not serious!” Wiatt yelled.

“In this weather?” Oliver asked. “That’s dangerous.”

“Piplup needs help, and I’m worried for him and the eggs,” Sara said. She opened the door, which swung open as the wind came through. Sara and Skiddo braced themselves as they stepped outside and into the storm.

Everyone stared in shock, even Team Rocket was speechless over Sara’s actions. “That twerpette is crazy!” Meowth exclaimed.

“She sure is,” Wiatt said.

Outside, Piplup was trying to make the nest more sturdy as well as building a wall using the sand to prevent the eggs from being washed to sea.

“Piplup!” Sara called out.

Piplup looked up and saw Sara and Skiddo coming towards him before glaring at the two. He walked by to protect the eggs and prevent Sara and Skiddo from taking another step.

“Pip Piplup!” Piplup yelled.

“Piplup please let us help you!” Sara yelled.

Skiddo bleated begging Piplup for their help.

“Piplup! Piplup! Pip!��

Soon the waves from the ocean came closer to the eggs causing Piplup to look behind and quickly ran to the eggs to shield them from the oncoming waves. While the waves didn’t harm the eggs, it did drag Piplup into the ocean.

“Oh no! Piplup!” Sara yelled.

Piplup tried to swim back, but due to how strong the waves were, he couldn’t swim back to shore.

“Hang on! Skiddo, use Vine Whip!”

Skiddo then used her Vine Whip and grabbed Piplup around his waist. He was confused, but accepted the help. Skiddo pulled the Penguin Pokemon out of the water and put him back on land.

“Are you okay?” Sara asked.

Piplup blinked and nodded. “Lup.” He replied.

Sara sighed in relief, “that’s good.” She then looked at the eggs as she and Skiddo looked around to find something to keep the eggs safe. Not far behind there were some sticks and leaves that could be used for a shield. “There!”

Sara and Skiddo ran and gathered as much sticks and leaves they can. Once they gathered enough, they went to the nests and used the leaves and sticks as a barricade to keep the eggs safe. Piplup helped using the sand to keep the barricade steady. Skiddo used her vines to tighten the barricade well.

“There, that should keep it safe,” Sara said. Skiddo bleated in reply, the two looked at the other nest and decided to do the same thing. The three gathered as much as they could and started to build barricades to protect the nests.

Wiatt and the gang watched from the window seeing their friend do everything she can to protect the eggs. “She’s so determined to protect the eggs.” He whispered.

“Vee.” Oddity agreed.

Sara and Skiddo were finishing up one of the barricades for the eggs, and sighed seeing there’s only one nest to go. “Almost done,” Sara said. 

Soon the winds picked up as the waves rolled in wildly. Sara and Skiddo braced themselves from the wind not knowing a giant wave was on top of them ready to fall. Hearing it the two turned and their eyes widened in horror seeing the monstrous wave on top of them. The two braced themselves, but before the wave landed on them, Piplup stood in front.

“Pip…LUP!” Piplup yelled as he launched a light blue beam on the wave causing it to freeze.

Sara opened her eyes and saw Piplup using Ice Beam to freeze the wave. “Piplup…you saved us.” She whispered.

Piplup turned to the girl with a smile, “Pip. Piplup.” He replied.

Sara’s eyes widened as she smiled. The frozen wave cracked causing one half of the wave to go back into the ocean while the other half broke into shards. “Come on, we got one more nest to save!”

Piplup nodded and he and Skiddo followed the girl to gather the remaining leaves and sticks for the barricade.

Inside the villa, Wiatt smiled seeing Sara was alright.

As Sara, Skiddo and Piplup get the last barricade up the storm starts to die down. The wind slowly calmed down, the rain stopped, the waves rolled in smoothly, and finally the clouds started to blow away as the sunlight started to peek through them.

Sara sighed and lay down on the sand alongside Piplup. The trio took heavy breaths before Sara turned to the Penguin Pokemon. “We did it.”

“Lup,” Piplup answered.

The two turned to face each other before giving a small smile. “You're pretty confident for a Piplup,” Sara said.

Piplup blinked in surprise before smiling. “Pip. Piplup.” He replied.

Sara gave a light chuckle as she slowly sat up and removed her raincoat. She then helped Skiddo with removing her raincoat, but as they were doing so they saw something glowing where the Piplup eggs rested. Sara, Skiddo and Piplup got a closer look and saw each and every egg started to glow. One by one, the eggs hatched into baby Piplup.

Sara and Piplup’s eyes widened, smiling with joy, as they removed the barriers so the babies could be free. Piplup looked over at Sara and tapped her arm, “Piplup. Piplup.” He said, translating to thank you for helping him.

“You’re welcome,” Sara replied.

“Sara!”

Sara and Piplup turned to see Wiatt and the others coming by and checked on the trio. “Wiatt!” Sara yelled.

Once the group caught up, Wiatt gave a small glare, “what you did was stupid.” He said.

“I know,” Sara replied.

“But, we are glad you're okay darling,” Lewis added.

Sara gave a smile, “thanks. Besides, I couldn't leave those eggs alone.”

The Piplups who were inside the villa came and met the newborn Piplup and started to play with them. The group chuckled seeing everyone reuniting and getting along.

However, Alyssa stopped chuckling realizing something. “Hey, where were the other three that were with us?” She asked.

“Team Rocket?” Oliver answered.

“Now that you mention it, the second the storm cleared up they ran off,” Lewis answered.

“Guess the storm scared them off,” Wiatt replied, crossing his arms.

Soon something came out of the water causing everyone to turn in shock. It was a blue and red robot, and on it’s forehead was a red R on it.

“Now what?!” Sara yelled.

From the mecha, laughter was heard, “No storm scares us!” Jessie exclaimed.

“And now that we got warm from hot chocolate and the storm has gone away another day, we can finally start what we were here for!” James exclaimed.

“Catching the Piplup for the boss using our new mecha!” Meowth exclaimed, as he clicked the button. Once he did, tentacles came out of the robot and started to grab the Piplup and throw them inside the chest, trapping them.

“Oh no the Piplup!” Alyssa yelled.

“Stop it Team Rocket!” Wiatt growled.

Team Rocket laughed and continued to grab as many Piplups as they could.

Alyssa frowned feeling betrayed by Team Rocket, “I-I can’t believe I was nice to them.”

“We did warn you darling,” Lewis replied.

Piplup glared and was ready to fight the bad guys from taking his friends. “Wait, Piplup,” Sara said, stopping the water-type. “I know Team Rocket is stealing your friends, but you can’t battle them alone. Let us help you.”

Piplup shook his head and was ready to fight Team Rocket on his own.

“If you let me help you before, why not now?” Sara asked.

Piplup paused and turned to not only see Sara, but Lewis and Wiatt and their Pokemon ready to help him too.

“In our group, we're a team,” Lewis said.

“And if anything we wanna get a chance to fight Team Rocket too,” Wiatt added.

“Eevee!” Oddity exclaimed.

“Meow!” Sprgiatito added.

Skiddo bleated in response.

Piplup’s eyes widened, he turned to the mecha before turning back to the group and nodded, accepting the help.

“Alright!” Sara beamed. She then looked at the mecha as its tentacles cornered the last remaining Piplup. “Okay, we need to practice like we did earlier back at the facility.”

Lewis, Wiatt, Piplup, and their Pokemon nodded in agreement.

“Ready?”

“Ready!” Wiatt and Lewis exclaimed.

“Skiddo, use Vine Whip to stop Team Rocket!” Sara commanded.

Skiddo quickly used her vines to slap away the tentacles from stealing the other Piplup.

“Hey, watch it!” Jessie exclaimed. “Meowth handle that little brat!”

“Roger that!” Meowth exclaimed as he pressed another button causing the vines to head towards Skiddo.

“Alright Piplup it’s your turn! Use Ice Beam!” Sara commanded.

“Piplup. Pip…LUP!” Pipulp yelled, launching a light blue beam from his mouth freezing the robot’s tentacles.

Team Rocket struggled to get the tentacles out, but they were frozen.

“Sprigatito, use Leafage!” Lewis commanded.

“Oddity, use Copycat on Leafage!” Wiatt added.

Sprigatito launched the leaves from her neck, while Oddity glowed green and launched leaves from the tuft on his neck hitting the frozen tentacles and breaking them.

Team Rocket yelled in surprise seeing the tentacles were destroyed.

“Great work you guys!” Sara exclaimed. The two Pokemon turned towards the young girl and replied back to her. She turned to Piplup, “Now let’s rescue the babies!” 

“Piplup!” Piplup exclaimed.

“Skiddo, use Take Down!” Sara commanded.

“Oddity, use Quick Attack!” Wiatt commanded.

The two Pokemon started to charge at the robot and soon Piplup was right next to them as his beak glowed white, issuing a Peck attack. The three charged at the mecha, causing it to lose its balance.

“Woah! Woah!” Team Rocket yelled as the mecha lost balance and they fell. The door that that held the Piplup cracked open before breaking and all the baby Piplups escaped from Team Rocket.

“Oh no!” Meowth yelled.

“Alright!” Wiatt beamed. He then looked at his two friends, “ready to finish this?” Lewis and Sara nodded. “Oddity, use Buzzy Buzz!”

“Sprigatito, use Leafage!” Lewis commanded.

“Skiddo, use Razor Leaf!” Sara commanded.

The three Pokemon went to use their signature moves, with Piplup using Bubble Beam to make the attack even stronger. The attacks combined together and hit the machine. Oddity’s electric attack shocked Team Rocket before the rest of the attacks came by and destroyed the mecha.

“You know if we weren’t too relaxed from the hot cocoa, this would’ve been an easy capture,” James said.

“Well, it was good hot chocolate, but you're right,” Jessie added.

“Wobbuffet!” Wobbuffet shouted coming out of no where.

Meowth shrugged, “oh well today was a win loose situation.”

“Looks like Team Rocket is blasting off again!” Team Rocket screamed at the same time.

“Wobbuffet!” Wobbuffet added.

Soon a star twinkled in the sky showing Team Rocket has blasted off far away.

Everyone cheered over Team Rocket’s defeat, glad they stopped them from taking anymore Piplup.

“You guys were amazing!” Sara beamed.

Skiddo belated and gave a smile, while Piplup chirped in reply.

“Especially you Piplup. You were awesome!” Sara exclaimed.

Piplup blinked in surprise. “Piplup?” He asked. “Piplup!”

Later, the sun started to set and the Piplup were all in the water ready to leave. “You guys get up north safe and sound, okay?” Alyssa reminded them.

“Piplup.” The Piplup pack replied.

Piplup saw his friends in the ocean, and was ready to step in and swim. Before he did he looked back at Sara. “Piplup. Pip.” He said.

“I’m gonna miss you too,” Sara said. Skiddo belatedly replied to what he just said.

“Piplup.”

Sara petted his head, “hey you and I will see each other again one day.” She said, The girl looked back at the pack of Piplup before looking back at her friend. “They’re waiting on you.”

Piplup nodded and got in the water and started to swim to his friends. “Piplup Pip?” Piplup asked if everyone was ready to go.

“Piplup!” The Piplup pack beamed.

“Piplup! Pip!” Piplup yelled as he and the group started their travels back home. As Piplup swam away with its pack, he constantly turned around to see Sara and his friends. The further away he was he felt sad separating from his new friends.

“Lup?” A younger Piplup asked.

Piplup looked up at the pack, who were concerned for him. “Piplup pip?” The younger Piplup asked.

Piplup sighed, he couldn’t lie to his pack, “Lup. Pip Piplup.” Piplup replied.

The Piplup looked at one another and smiled before turning to the oldest Piplup. “Piplup Pip!” They all exclaimed.

Piplup looked up to see all his friends cheering him on to go on his new journey. Tears were in his eyes as he smiled and nodded, he turned around and swam away before waving to his friends.

“Piplup! Pip!” Piplup exclaimed.

“Piplup!” The Piplup pack exclaimed back.

Alyssa and the Dream Quartet were about to head inside the villa till they heard Piplup calling out to them. They turned to see Piplup swimming back to shore.

“Piplup!” Sara exclaimed as she and Skiddo ran back to their friend. 

Once Piplup was close to shore, he jumped out of the water and into Sara’s arms, who caught him and held him close. “Piplup, are you just here to say goodbye?” She asked.

Piplup shook his head, and nuzzled close to his trainer, causing the girl’s eyes to widen.

“I get it.” Alyssa spoke up, “Piplup wants to join you guys.”

Wiatt and the others gasped in shock before turning to Sara. The latter’s eyes widened as she looked down on the Penguin Pokemon, who looked back up at her. “Piplup.” He said.

“Piplup, you want to join us?” Sara asked.

“Piplup!” Piplup replied.

“Pip! Piplup!”

Sara looked up to see some of Piplup’s friends giving the two approval to be friends and go off on their journey together. The young girl smiled and nodded as she put Piplup down and took out a Pokeball, “Piplup, you and I are going on so many adventures together.” Sara explained.

“Lup!” Piplup beamed.

Sara tapped the Pokeball on Piplup’s head, which opened as a light came out and sent Piplup inside the Pokeball. Once the ball closed, it wiggled three times before a chime was heard showing that Piplup was caught. She let out a chuckle as she got a new partner. 

“That’s awesome darling.” Lewis beamed as he, Wiatt and Oliver walked over to her. 

“You got yourself a new friend,” Oliver added.

Skiddo bleated happy her trainer caught a new Pokemon. Sara let out a chuckle and looked back at Piplup’s friends. “I promise, I’ll take good care of him.”

“Piplup!” The Piplup pack beamed.

“Piplup! Come on out!” Sara shouted as she threw the Pokeball up in the air and out came Piplup.

“Piplup!” Piplup beamed. Once landing he turned to his friends and waved them goodbye once more. “Pip Piplup!”

“Piplup!” The Piplup pack waved back before swimming off and catching up with the rest of the group.

Piplup smiled glad to see his pack would be fine on their own, he sighed and watched his friends leave. Sara and Skiddo smiled and went to sit down next to her new friend as they saw the Piplup leave towards the sunset.

[semjet]

Today it's Nami's turn.

The order with her is somewhat doubtful, since she was already traveling with them but at the same time she wasn't really part of the crew from her point of view, but to save myself headaches I'll put her now since she's one of the firsts to appear.

In Nami's case and other crew members, I'm not going to give her a full team of six, because even if she knows how to defend herself, she's still not a direct combatant, her role being that of a navigator.

Masterlist here.

(Is it a bad moment to say that I miss her old, cute clothes?)

Espeon

Going with the representation of Nami's nickname, Cat Burglar, this pokemon is also a representation of her skill as a navigator and her sacrifice for her village. I was originally going to select Liepard to represent the nickname, but the more I read about this pokemon, the less and less it related to Nami. Also, Espeon is based on a Nekomata, so it still fits.

In the Pokemon Silver Pokedex it says: "Based on air currents it predicts things like the weather or the enemy's next attack." And in Pokemon Ruby: "Espeon is tremendously loyal to the trainer who is worth its time. They say that this Pokemon developed its divinatory powers to prevent its trainer from suffering any harm." Nami would have an Eevee that would evolve to allow it to survive in the environment that Nami had to endure.

On the other hand, regarding the sacrifice for her village, there is a legend about Espeon that tells of a poor couple who rescued an Espeon and fed and healed it for years, and that when the husband became ill and could not work, Espeon, in the form of a woman, worked in his place as a way of gratitude. Nami spent years trying to repay an impossible debt for the sake of her village, putting up with Arlong, and in the end she was rewarded.

Cherrin

There are wild berries, apples, olives, mushrooms, poisonous flowers, a dinosaur with bananas on its chin... But you know what there isn't? A tangerine pokemon. Not even one inspired by oranges to be able to fit the bill, so I had to find a substitute fruit (no offense to fans of this pokemon).

Cherrin is a pokemon inspired by a cherry flower, related to the weather, therefore to Nami's ability, changing shape depending on whether or not there is sunlight available.

Castform

I think it's an obvious choice that ties into Nami's ability.

I see it as possible that Nami gets it during her training in the two-year time skip, or as a representation of Zeus, since I don't want to put Big Mom's creations as some legendary (Like Thundurus) since that spot is reserved for her fruit.

Altaria (Shiny)

This is an option I've chosen, one, because Altaria appears on sunny days and uses the wind to fly, two, because it forms strong bonds with its trainers and wraps them in its wings when sleeping, and I can't get the image of a little Nami cuddled up with an Altaria out of my head, and three because this pokemon has strong mood swings, attacking non-stop whoever angers it or being very nice instead.

It also mega evolves, so it serves to level the power levels within the crew a bit.

It being shiny is just to much Nami's colours a bit more.

[gabbies-eevee-emporium]

How did you come come across each of your eevees?

Oh!! I was actually planning on making a seperate post about all my Eevees and I was going to add how I met them, but I think this would be easier to do!

Uhm...just to warn you however...some of these stories are a little dark and contains themes of abuse so please do read with caution.

Lunar was my first one, and possibly the most lighthearted story out of all of them. I met her as an Eevee about two years ago. I guess I kind of met her by chance? I thought her colouring was curious but I wasn't really thinking about catching Pokémon yet...but she continued to follow me around wherever I went so eventually I did catch her ^^ we've been inseperable ever since!

Superstar was the second, I met her not too long after Lunar. Me and Liam were still trying to find an apartment and we were wandering around Castelia city until we stumbled across this box that had "Please take me!" Written hastily on it, and Superstar was there! The box was pretty big so I assume other Eevees were in there. If anyone's seen the movie Oliver and Company, I imagine what happened was similar to what happened in the intro, lots of Eevees were taken home, yet nobody wanted Superstar. There were also, notably, some children harassing her. I was quite annoyed by this and also felt bad for Superstar so I took her with me!

Peach is one of my more recent Eevees, I met her a year ago. Liam gave her to me because apparently they'd been out on a stroll with their Pokémon, found her, and figured I'd be able to take care of her!

Chocolate was met not long after Peach too. See I like to go to PokéStar Studios in Virbank occasionally and one trip there, Peach found Chocolate and brung him to me. I hated to see him all abandoned and sad, so of course I took him in. Fun fact! Peach and Chocolate are rather close because of this!

Gray's story is...much darker I'm afraid. See I used to know Gray's Trainer, he was my friend, regrettably. As I've mentioned in a previous post, his Trainer always talked about evolving Gray so he could get rid of the ugly fur pattern. I...often thought he was joking...he uhm...he wasn't...and he eventually revealed to me (and Liam) that he often hurt Gray during training and we actually witnessed this one time. I was too shy to say anything but luckily Liam was not, and threatened the Trainer to hand over Gray due to this. I'm...not sure if they should of threatened him but Gray's in a safe place now with people who care for him, so I suppose it turned out alright in the end!

Tiga I found around the outskirts of Castelia (around Route 4) as she was being bullied by wild Pokémon. Lunar stepped in to save her and she's been with me ever since. It took a while for her to warm up, but she's not as defensive now!

Noir is the most recent, and she was given to me by a Trainer! The Trainer didn't seem to be malicious, she said she'd seen me around with my Eevees and figured I could raise Noir well, as she couldn't. I'd like to think I'm doing a good job!

But yes, that's how I met all my Eevees, and I love them so much!!!
