Description
Orlando looked up with an angry glare at the sky. These creatures... They were so horrible... Using moves of various types to hurt people and each other... He would end it. He would end it all.
As a famous Pokemon scientist, he knew a lot about the beasts. Or as people actually call them: 'pocket monsters'.
The reason why they are called that is because those monsters could be captured inside a pokeball. So, they could fit in your pocket.
Orlando was determined to make them all extinct. They were a grave danger to all people. He prepared the machine for his first 'test subject'. An Espeon.
She padded inside, sniffing the air curiously. She could sense it was dangerous, but she also knew that she needed to investigate to protect her friends. She looked up in awe at the machine as she peeked inside the room. She knew it was most likely going to fire some energy at her, so she cast up a quick mirror coat before entering.
Orlando crouched down as the Espeon entered. She climbed into the machine and glanced around, unsure of where to go next.
Orlando smirked evilly and hit the button that would fire the rays and-
The mirror coat activated. The beam bounced right off of her and went straight towards him. He screamed as the beam hit him.
(Ugh... What? Why am I so short?)
Orlando looked up and froze as he saw an unfamiliar woman in front of him.
(Huh? Is she the reason that I am like this?!)
"Grrrrrr! Umbre! Umbreon!"
(Huh?)
"Umbre?"
"Oh my goodness! I'm so sorry for this! I- can talk like a human?!"
(Oh that explains a lot, actually! Due to the inverse kinetics of the beams, we switched species... But then why am I an Umbreon and not an Espeon?)
Espeon blinked down at Orlando.
"As a scientist, you should be able to fix this, right?"
"Umbreon... Umbre."
"Oh... Here."
She found a pad for him to write on with his claws.
He wrote carefully so she could read it.
She looked at it curiously once he had finished.
"I see... You need the help of a Pokemon? Then how did you make this machine in the first place?"
He wrote once more.
"You used a Time Ripple?! Well in that case, we need to find Celebi right awa-"
"Umbre! Umbreon."
He snatched the pad back and wrote quickly.
"Oh... To reverse the effect you need the help of... A shiny Ninetales?!"
Orlando nodded sadly. He knew the chances of finding a Ninetales, let alone a shiny one.
But Espeon was smiling.
"I know where he is! It may take a while to get there though... I can take you!"
Orlando looked up at her in confusion and disbelief.
"You would help me even after all that I did?" He wrote.
"Don't think too much into that. What you did was undeniably wrong, but I will still help you. Pokemon always do what they can to help others!"
Orlando looked down, feeling slightly bad. Nonetheless he nodded in agreement.
Espeon thought for a moment, then smiled as she seemed to come to a realization.
Her eyes glowed, and Orlando felt a strange power.
"What was that? Huh?! I can talk like a human again!"
Espeon responded cheerfully.
"I used my remaining psychic powers to let you speak! Unfortunately, as a human my power is more limited. So only you and I can hear you speak. Anyone else will just hear you saying your name. I can pretend to be your trainer and you can be my Pokemon!"
Orlando frowned at that thought, but then smiled a bit.
He thought to himself: 'who knows? Maybe all I need is just a little change...'
