'ello luvs, want a fresh chapter of my fanfic? It's straight outta the hot keyboard."
in all seriousness tho, sorry for disappearing for like 5 months since my last chapter, there were complicatios such as my pc being a jerk and other stuff
anyways, I have decided to move my fanfic to wattpad because of... reasons but i'll post updates here.Update 16-10-21: The story is back on the forums, I know I have been switching around a lot but I have sorted out the problems, I won't move it again. The chapters will also be put in spoiler tags as not to make the webpage too large. Also yeah, no coloured text because my PC bricked on me again and highlighting to colour them is tedious and leads to loads of errors.
(also i have decided to not include screenies cuz turns out i suck at editing them)
CHAPTER 8: Howdy! East gearen!
SpoilerI woke up breathing heavily.
I just had the strangest dream. There was a girl named Maria-
No, I was the girl, I saw it all from the girls point of view.
But, how could that be?
Anyways, I- no, the girl was told a story about a Pangoro and Zorua. I couldn't remember the details after that but cut forward and the girl was in some kind of dungeon. From here I could remember things clearly. There was a altar in front of the girl and she was screaming at someone I cant remember but after that she was on the altar herself begging someone to stop something.
And then there was a flash of light followed by darkness. And then I woke up.
"Man, that sure was a crazy dream," I told myself. But something was bugging me, how could my mind conjure something this crazy? That sure was strange.
Some time after I was lost in my thoughts, I remembered last night.
That's right! S.S. Oceana was attacked! But where was I?
Slowly, I took in my surroundings. I was sitting in a chair, with my jacket, wallet, watch and pokeballs on a table beside me. And there was yacht in front of me. I realised that i was in a boathouse. I grabbed my stuff and and as I was putting on my jacket, I remembered the pokeball mum gave me, the pokemon probably escaped from the ball and was living at the sea.
That's kinda sad, I didn't even see what kind of a pokemon it was.
At that moment a woman with flaming red hair came in the door. She looked vaguely familiar, as if I had seen her before. But where?
"Oh good, you're awake, I was starting to get worried," she said.
Now I remember! She was the one who who sent that Talonflame to rescue me.
"Are you the one who sent that Talonflame to save me?" I asked.
"Yes, my name is Tesla, member of the Aevium Elite Eight and fire type user," she said.
"How long have I been out for?" I asked.
"All night," she said. "You fainted as soon as Talonflame landed so I brought you to this boathouse. Oh, by the way, are you hungry? Here, I brought you some food in case you wanted some."
She held out a paper wrapped package. I opened it and saw a few sandwiches.
"Thanks," I said.
"No problem" She smiled.
"So, what happened?" she asked as i was eating.
"I dunno exactly, I said slowly. "We were sitting down to our End of Voyage banquet when some group with large X's across their uniform detonated a bomb on the ship which started to slowly sink it. Turns out, they wanted my mother and wanted to leave no witnesses behind. I got away with help from my pokemon but I do't know what happened to the others..." I trailed off.
I thought about the others. What happened to them? Were they... dead?
"Hey Anthony," Tesla said, "I am sure your mother and the other passengers are fine. They probably are in the custody of Team Xen."
"Who're Team Xen?" I asked curiously.
"What? You don't know about Team Xen? They are a criminal organisation that pretty much no one knows about. They're usually all bark and no bite though, so this is confusing to me..."
A criminal organisation that no one knows about?
That's ... unheard of.
"Hey Anthony, what did you and your mother come to Aevium for?" she asked.
"Uh... You see, I tried taking on the Unova Pokemon League but I lost, so I came to Aevium for a fresh start, especially since I learnt that it has 18 Gyms and a Elite Eight," I explained.
"Huh, taking on the league eh? Well then maybe you could face me in a battle one day." she said.
"What d'you mean?" I asked curious.
"Oh, I am a member of the Elite Eight, a Fire type user," she explained.
"I see," I said. "Well in that case I'll certainly fight you someday."
"What d'you plan on doing now?" she asked.
I pondered on the question. I had come to Aevium to challenge the League. But I also had to search for my mother. And my team wasn't exactly in the most tip-top shape. Did that girl know that it would happen? Did she take devolve, or whatever my team for this reason?
After thinking for a few minutes, I decided to challenge the League. By becoming stronger I could also search for my mother.
I explained my plan to Tesla.
"That might be the best course of action you have. Well in that case, you should get over to Gearen Laboratory," she said, nodding. "I have to go now. I sent some divers down to see if they could find the S.S. Oceana." she said, clambering on a her Talonflame,"
Just as she was about to take off, she looked back. "I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. I don't know why the attack happened. But i am sure we'll know the reason soon. Take care Anthony! I am sure we'll meet again! Come on Talonflame! Full speed! Use Tailwind!"
Whoosh.
And she was gone. I gathered my stuff and headed off in the direction of East Gearen City.
****************************
East Gearen City
Wow. This city was dark.
Those were my first thoughts when I entered East Gearen City. Even though it was still early morning, the city gave off dark vibes. As if it was always nighttime. I dunno if that was a bad thing or not though. This was in stark contrast to Castelia City, where there was always a sea air. I guess every city had its own vibes.
I could see Gearen Laboratory up ahead. I headed off in its direction.
Gearen Laboratory
I entered the Laboratory.
"So I next have to go to West Gearen City. Hmm..." a girl with long red hair and a cap said.
"Excuse me. Can you move out of the way?" I said because she was blocking my way.
The girl turned and saw me.
"Oh are you Anthony?" she asked.
"Uh... yes. I am," I replied, quite unnerved by the fact that she knew my name.
"Gee, why are giving me that look? Don't you recognize me?" she asked me indignantly.
"No?" I said getting weirded out by the second.
"Hey! I am Amanda! We spoke on the ship remember? I got you registered for the league 'n and everything," she practically shouted, causing everyone in the victiny to look at her.
Huh, so she was Amanda. But I don't remember having a cap or long hair. How could she change her appearence in such a short time?
"Were you expecting a robot or or something?" she snickered.
"No"
"Alright, now we got that sorted out, time to get your starter!" she said, leading me down the hallway.
"Hey Amanda, I already kinda have a full team of six," I told her.
She stopped and looked at me. "A full team of six you say? Well I dunno what to do in that case."
At that moment, a man with dark hair strode towards us.
"Oh Anthony! Meet my brother Jan, who co-manages of the Aevium League. Jan, meet Anthony, a new trainer who signed up for the Aevium League" she introduced us.
We shook hands.
"A pleasure to meet you, Jan" I said.
"Likewise," he smiled. "Also if by 'co-manage' Amanda means I do all he work while she plays outside, then yes. I do co-manage."
"Ah," I said, giggling.
Hmm, Jan looked a pretty chill dude to me.
Meanwhile Jan looked dead straight at Amanda.
"...Amanda" he said.
"Oh dear" Amanda said in rather small voice.
"Where have you been on your trip to Grand Dream City? I tried contacting you multiple times but you never got back. You were supposed to be back 3 days ago. You practically vanished off the face of Earth What happened?" he asked.
"Er... You know I have been busy and stuff," she told him, looking anywhere but him.
"Hmm... Also that hat is new. Did you buy it on your trip to GDC or somethig?"
"Yep! I bought this hat on the trip to GDC. Stylish, isn't it?"
Wait, that didnt make sense. It takes atleast 2 days to travel from East Gearen City to GDC. She wasn't wearing the cap when i talked to her. But then she didnt have long hair either...
"Er if you say so," replied Jan. "Also when you were out on your 'trip' I actually did something useful and finished our project. Now the least you could do is be useful and deliver this to Zumi at Magnolia Library."
"Oh I would Jan, but you see I am kinda busy with Anthony now so...." Amanda replied.
"I should've known you don't want to deliver this. I mean, when have you shown any incentive in 'managing' the League with me unless it involves running around and helping new trainers?" Jan said in a flat voice.
"Well I like to get some hands-on stuff done, not sit in a room and handle paperwork," Amanda said in a mock hurt voice. "And do you honestly think its gonna be a good idea to pin me down with all the legal documentation and stuff?"
Jan thought for a moment.
"I suppose it will not be the best thing to do after what you did to the substitute gym leader files," Jan said slowly. "Plus you save me the trouble of running all over the region. So I guess it works out."
"You see, it works out! You do paperwork, I do fieldwork" Amanda said.
"Yeah... Well since you don't see to want to deliver this, I suppose i had better deliver this to Zumi," he sighed. "You should get Anthony set up."
"Oh that reminds me, Anthoy here has a full team of six pokemon already, so should he get a starter pokemon?" Amanda asked.
"It's up to him, if he wants one, he can get one, but he needs atleast one pokemon," Jan replied.
"Well, I am gonna see you guys later,"
He walked off.
"All right now that we got everything sorted out, follow me!" Amanda said, opening a barrier and going through a door.
I tried to go in after her but I bumped- no banged into someone and I fell down.
"Ouch!" I heard a girl's voice. I looked up to see who I had bumped into, it was a girl, who was clutching her suitcase. Her face looked similar to the girl's face in my dream. But I had never seen her before in my life.
"Are you alright? I'm sorry I am rather in a rush..." she apologized.
I picked myself off the ground.
"Yeah, I am fine," I said.
"Oh, ok," she said, relieved. "Sorry, but I can't stay around and chat. I have to be somewhere."
She rushed off.
I didn't even catch her her name. Wut.
****************************
"...Yes I have sent her there," said a man sitting behind a desk talking someone on his laptop, whom I could assume was Prof. Jenner.
"...And remember Jenner, no double-crossing us," a woman's voice replied.
"Don't worry about that, I have no plans to do that," Prof. Jenner said. "Anyways, I'll talk to you later, someone's here" he continued, looking up and seeing me and Amanda.
"Alright then," the woman signed off.
"Ah Amanda," he said, closing his laptop. "And this is?"
"The new trainer I told you about, Professor. His name is Anthony," Amanda replied.
"Ah, I assume you need a starter Pokemon and everything?" inquired Jenner.
"I actually already have a full team of six but Jan said if I wanted I could pick a starter," I said.
"Ah ok, so do you want a starter pokemon then?" asked Jenner.
"I would love to!"
"Very well, Amanda, take Anthony to the underground reserve," said the professor looking at Amanda.
Wait, reserve? Underground? Wut?
"Right-o Professor!" said Amanda. "Follow me Anthony"
We went through a small door which led to a elevator.
Moments after.
We stepped out of the elevator and i rubbed my eyes to make sure they were working properly.
Because I just couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing.
An underground reserve. Right underneath the Gearen Laboratory. WHAT. HOW. WHY.
There was a small pond of water to my right, in which various water type pokemon were playing, a cluster of small trees ahead of me, and a raised stone platform in the middle of which there was a crater filled with-
"Is that actual lava?!" I yelped.
"What else do you think it is?" Amanda replied with a smirk. "Anyways, there's three sections in which there are 8 pokemon of the three types- Water, Grass and Fire. So in total you have 24 choices."
"Cool," I said.
I strolled over to the pond, cuz I wanted to have a water type pokemon.
A Squirtle playing at the edge of the pond caught my eye, hmm, Squirtle's evolved form Blastoise can Mega evolve right? Maybe I'll get to experience the phenomenon known as Mega Evolution, who knows? That is, if I can find mega stone, a key stone and form a bond with this Squirtle.
I knelt down.
"Hey, little guy, wanna be a part of my team?" I asked it. I never liked to forcefully put Pokemonn my party if they are unwilling to join me, because I value pokemon as friends and partners rather than tools. Something which (sadly) a lot of people view Pokemon as.
Anyways, the Squirtle danced happily and said, "Squirtle! Squuuuiiiirtle!"
"I'll take that as a yes," I smiled.
"Got your starter, Golly, a Squirtle?" Amanda saidas I walked back up to her with my Squirtle trailing behind me as I didnt have a pokeball for it yet.
"Why? Got a problem?" I asked her.
"Nope, anyway, here's a Pokedex and a Cybernav, it's basic stuff for all starting trainers," Amanda said, handing me a Pokedex which looked a lot differet rom my old one. It looked something like this-
While my old one had two screens which were sliding
While my old one had two screens which were sliding.
I checked Squirtle's Pokedex page. It was classified as the 'Tiny Turtle Pokemon'.
The page read-
"Squirtle's shell is not merely used for protection. The shell's rounded shape and the grooves on its surface help minimize resistance in water, enabling this Pokémon to swim at high speeds."
"Hmm, I Think I will call you Shello!" I said, looking up from my Pokedex screen.
"Squirt!" squirtle said.
"Hey why dont you test out that squirtle in a battle? I'l use my Litten!" Amanda said, sending out a Litten. "Meowwr" it said.
"What say Shello? Want a battle?" I asked Shello.
"Squirt!" Shello nodded.
"Alright then, Trainer Amanda, I challenge you to a 1 on 1 battle!"
"Fine, Now then... Litten use Leer, drop its defense!" Amanda shouted.
"Not so fast, Shello, use Withdraw!" I said.
"Clever tactic, ok Litten use Double Kick!"
"How about... no? Shello roll away and use Water Gun!"
The attack hit the Litten and it fainted.
"Wow, that was a one-hit KO" I said impressed by Shello's abilities.
"Heh, well you had the type advantage" Amanda said. "Anyways, colour me impressed! I didn't know you had such good battle skills."
"So Amanda," I heard a voice behind me. I turned around and saw Prof. Jenner.
"I cant leave you for 5 minutes without getting into a fight huh?" he asked.
"Oh noooo! The horror! I have been ound out of my ahem beautiful plan to rob Anthony of his battling prowess. LOL" Amanda mock-screamed.
"..."
Insert crickets(or in this case, Kriketots ad Kriketunes) chirping and no one laughing meme here.
"Really Amanda, you're not making any sense," Prof. Jenner said, shaking his head.
Well I agree with him.
"Uh... Anyways. That was a superb battle Anthony. But be warned, you may had an advantage here, but you can be sure as hell that the Gym Leaders in Aevium aren't gonna leave room for an advantage. Also, Professor, I have some work to take care of, so you'll just get Anthony ready will you? Okay bye."
"Bye, I gue-" but she was gone.
"Well she's gone. Honestly that girl's a handful," Sighed Jenner.
"Um Professor?" There was another person there. He was a boy of about my age.
"Ah Ren, I see you're back," The professor evidently knew the boy.
"Yes Professor, I have successfully completed my assignment in Amethyst Cave, here is the Pokemon you lent me," he said, handing the Professor a stack of papers and a Pokeball. "Oh by the way, who's this?" he continued.
"This is Anthony, he recently registered to challenge the Aevium League, did you not also do the same?" Jenner said.
Come to think of it, there was a list on recently registered trainers list on the Aevium Registration website. There were few names in order: Aelita, Ren, Mordecai, Alexa. And after I was done registering, my name also apeared on the list.
"Yes sir. So your name's Anthony? Nice to meet'cha." Ren said, holding a hand out to me.
"Same" I said.
"Anyways Ren you have done a wonderful job, will you be willing to take another assignment?" Jenner said.
"Oh thank you sir! But... do I have to do this assignment now? I promised Melia and Venam that I'd meet them after I was done with Amethyst Cave." Ren said.
"Wait, Veronica Vasile as in Poison-type Gym Leader of East Gearen city Veronica 'Venam' Vasile? You're friends with her?" I interjected before the professor could reply.
"Yep, if you'd like I can introduce you to her later!" Ren replied.
"That would be great,"
"Alright Ren, i suppose you can have the day off," professor said.
"Awesome, I'll be seeing you tomorrow then, later Anthony." and Ren was off.
"Ah we finally have some much needed privacy," Jenner said.
"Uh why?" I asked.
"You see I have a personal favor I'd like you to accept. Of course it'll not be without rewards. Here's a CyberNav with all of the important apps preloaded, free of charge."
"Uh... thanks I guess, what do I have to do?"
"I have a daughter named Melia, I have sent her on a trip to Goldenwood Forest, it's north of here, you can check it with the map application on the CyberNav."
"What that have to do with me?"
"You see... I am confident that she'll be able to look ater herself, but... I'll feel better if there was someone to look after her."
"So... Lemme get this straight, you want me as her bodyguard while she visits said forest?"
"In short, yes"
"But why me? I mean you hardly know me. We just met."
"I have faith in your skills. It's not everyday you see a new trainer beat Amanda even if they're at an advantage."
"Fine I'll do it."
Beat.
"Hmm where can I find her?"
"She should be at the train station north of here. That's where he train to Goldenwood Forest leaves."
"Aight fine, see ya later Prof."
"Thank you Anthony."
"Don't mention it, I wouldn't have done it if not or the CyberNav."
****************************
"Ah Anthony, just the man I wanted. Follow me for a second, will you? I want to show you something," Jan said.
Jan was beckoning to me as I had come out of the Laboratory door.
I followed him through a door and a set of stairs which led underground. At this point I was beginning to suspect that there was more of the lab underground than aboveground.
At any rate, we were soon at a door labeled 'Gadget Room'.
"Here Anthony check these out." Jan said.
"Um what are these?"
In front of me there was a panel, and two steel pillars with stars on them.
"Alright so first of all we have a what I have dubbed a 'Healing Star' they can heal your pokemon if they are hurt." Jansaid pointing to a steel rod with a golden star on it.
"Cool," I said impressed.
"Now this is a PC star. I am sure you can guess what it does."
"Its a portable PC duh."
"Correct, and now this is called a Gym Guide Panel, basically you turn them on and someone is gonna give you information on the Gym Leader which you are supposed to challenge."
"I see."
"Feel free to check these out."
I first used the healing system to heal my pokemon.
Then I used storage boxes to send WhiteDove to Professor Juniper in order to make space for Shello in the party.
Finally, I turned on the Gym Guide Panel.
"Anthony!" a holographic image of Jan appeared. "Looks like you decided to use one of these eh? Welp, looks like the Meowth's outta the bag now. I will be the one giving you advice and info on gym leaders you are going to face."
He went offline.
A few minutes, later I was outside the Laboratory, checking the map on what to do next.
I had two main objectives at the moment, beat the Aevium League, and find info on Team Xen and rescue my mother.
Hmm, there's a Library marked on the map, maybe I could find something on Team Xen there.
Then I also need to find Melia in Goldenwood Forest. And beat Venam the gym Leader here in East Gearen. I decided first to go to the station.
"Alright, I guess my Aevium Adventure starts here." I said out loud and ran in the direction of the train station.
But little did my naive self back then now just what was this adventure gonna turn out to be.
P.S. updates might come infrequently because i am really waiting for v13 to drop.

I was confused as to how Amber was able to sense the wrongness of the outcome and retain at least an inkling of the PC's existence after we're erased
this same thing has been bugging me for so long
how did amber even know what was wrong
and why did the mc disapear?
-
on another note, in the legend of goomidra quest
why is goomink able to battle only aya and crawli for badges?
whereas Florin and Spector are there just chilling in their gyms for challengers
heck, Spector had been sent down from GDC just to replace Narcissa for the time being
-
Same reason if your reasoning about Crescent and Amanda robo being involved together
Crescent wants the MC to not get involved but as long as they're friends withMelia and she's around, she's gonna pull the mc with her wherever she goes
Maybe Crescent told Robo-Amanda to abduct Melia? Who knows?
-
OK
more of a subject change but
what happened to the Protectors of Aevium?
we know Vivian died
and Anju was captured by Indriad when they fought him
and Hazuki somehow got out of there
but that begs the question
how exacty did hazuki get out?
and my answer is
Thomas saved Hazuki since he is one of the powerful families
but that begs the two more questions
1.Why did he save Hazuki? Was it because he knew that if Hazuki dies he would not gain access to her riches and sth?
2.What happened to Nymiera? Did Indriad defeat them?
and my answers are-
1.Yes, he knew what would happen if Hazuki died so he pulled her out
2. Indriad defeated them and killed Nymiera
yes, i know that sounds unlikely but that sounds most likely
What d'you guys think?

Ok so turns out i forgot to include the music file for crawli's theme which is a bummerjust drop this file into the BGM folder in the game's filesUPDATE: no need to download this file anymore, i have updated the original link

Many people say that
(Spoilers for v12)
SpoilerThe
RylandFlora battle iss the hardest battle in the game, but is it really so?I mean, His team can be taken out by a gud weather team with hard hitting mons
And then there's Souta, whose is supposed to be strongest
But expect for monotype run with no access to dig or smack
I know his battle starts with You can't hit his Pokemon supereffectively with moves super effective against the flying type, but cave field make him easy af
And then there are the puppets with them being absolute nightmares with bulk and strength
And tbh, I did have trouble with them
And finally there is (Spoilers for v12)
SpoilerNim/Lorna,

Ugh
She was an absolute nightmare for me
That stupid aromatisse, so damn resistant to dying and setting up trick room whenever it got the chance
That battle was
Extremely difficult in which I had to use my lycanroc's rock slide and walrein's Blizzard to flich and freeze the trick room setters to death
She was a nightmare to battle, honestly

My pick is definitely the last one
