Kapitel 18: 18: Cerberus, Fairy, and the Piss Stone
[You've created a miraculous medicine!]
[You've received a Growlithe DNA capsule]
[Hint: Give it to your Houndour, there will be a surprise when he evolves to Houndoom]
[Hint: Upon consumption, Houndour will only be able to evolve after using a Fire Stone]
[If you keep doing good things, you'll become the light in these times of darkness.]
'This...' Instantly, a small black bead fell into his hands. Darius stared at it for a moment before looking at Cerberus: "Boy." He called out to him: "Come here..." Cerberus walked towards and sat down right before him, much to Derek's happiness: "See, I have this little thing with me here... If you eat it, you'll become stronger-" He didn't even get to finish his sentence, Cerberus had already eaten it.
Darius forgot the one single rule about every single dog in existence - if you hold something in your hand before them, they'll eat it.
[Houndour (Cerberus) has consumed the Growlithe DNA capsule]
[Houndour (Cerberus) has received the Ability: Intimidate]
[Houndour (Cerberus) has received the Egg Moves: Morning Sun, Double Kick, Raging Fury]
[Houndour (Cerberus) has learned the Moves: Howl, Flame Wheel, Helping Hand, Agility]
There was just this moment Cerberus looked at him funny before there was this poofing sound as a mane of red fur grew on top of his little head, making a Mohawk. The same happened on his tail, but this time, the tuff of red thick fur appeared on the tip of his tail, resembling more of a lion's tail than an Arcanine's tail. There were also these zigzag white lines that grew on his fur, resembling a Growlithe's own black lines over their pale orange fur.
"-but you'll only be able to evolve after you meet certain requirements." Darius finished his sentence as he looked at Cerberus. It only took him about three seconds before he reached out and touched the floof on top of his puppy's head, and he immediately began to ruffle it. "Never mind, I'm not angry." He wanted to at least discipline Cerberus about eating things, but seeing as he got fluffy because of it, he completely overlooked everything. The other Pokemon just looked at Cerberus weirdly for a moment before they came forward to talk to him. Meanwhile, Darius looked over his puppy's status:

Cerberus has trained a lot, and Darius knew very little about ranking up. The only thing he knew was that there were limits. For example, after Cerberus reached level 20, he stopped leveling up. No matter how hard he tried, he stopped leveling altogether! He could still get stats added to him, which was good because he never stopped working on himself, which only made Darius happy. So happy, in fact, that he put even greater effort into his own training to keep up with his boy, but he didn't make progress as quickly as the little hound did.
"Oh, right." He turned to look at the Gardevoir, sighing as he saw her body healing, slowly but visibly. "Let's take her up..." He was about to reach out to touch her when a psychic blast hit his fingers, making him pull his hand away. It was really weak, like, extremely weak. He turned to look at the little Ralts that did that and smiled before reaching out and touching their little head: "It's okay." Darius softly said: "They're going to be fine now, I'm not going to hurt them." Ralts are very sensitive to emotions, but these ones were clearly distressed, so he excused their behavior for now. He softly picked up the hurt Gardevoir. They were really light! 'Let's see...'

"C'mon, let's take your sister upstairs..." He looked at the big Torterra and concentrated for a moment, jumping with all his might while channeling his energy to his legs to increase his strength. He successfully jumped about 5 meters upwards the big boy Torterra, his feet caught on a stone that was part of the large shell that this Pokemon had, and he pushed himself further upwards. Cerberus soon followed, had learned how to do the same as a way to train his jumping ability and leg strength. He seemed surprised. However, when he used the technique Fire Jump to reach a high altitude, he almost flew above the Torterra because he put way too much energy on his launching.
"Pffft-" Laughing a little, Darius reached out and caught the boy before he hit his face in Torterra's hard shell, making the boy whine in confused fear. He almost got hurt with something he has been doing for over a week! What the fuck? (As Alpha says). "-boy, you just got stronger, you need to learn how to regulate your strength more now..." Darius looked down for a moment to see the Kirlia picking up the two little Ralts and vanishing, appearing right beside him as they used [Teleport] like all Psychic Pokemon can use. "Come, I'll take you to where she'll stay." Darius doesn't fucking know when he became a wandering healer, but hey, it's kinda cool and he saves Poke-lives. "Let's go." He soon entered his own extra building. This one was more of a storage, but he also was making himself an extra bed since his last once broke, and now he kept it on the storage room. He rested her in the bed and started to look over her health with his [Pokemon Examination] skill, to make sure she was okay.
Soon, he turned to look at the Kirlia and softly asked: "So, you're... hungry?"
-Scene Cut-
Darius: Food is the most important thing!
Darius:... why did I say that like a video game tip?
-Scene Cut-
"Young lady, drop the piss stone down!"
["No! I like the piss stone!"]
"NO!"
To explain what was happening, let's talk about what happened. After the Gardevoir woke up, Kirlia started to explain what happened to her, and she was thankful for what Darius did for her. She was still hurt and needed rest, Darius was really concerned about what the fuck was hurting Pokemon so badly that they were getting killed left and right.
That was when Gardevoir explained to him what happened: They were captured by these humans wearing white clothes and put through horrendous torture that was trying to bring out their "true" potential, whatever that meant. Gardevoir said that their emotions were unnaturally still and unmoving, as if they were something weirdly shaped like a human but not human. Darius made some questions, but the emotional stress was getting to her, so he decided to use his [Pokemon Emotional Bonding] skill to temporarily bond to the Gardevoir to help with her mental health for a little while.
She was clearly surprised that a human could do that since she had never seen that before, so he at least got her to think about anything else other than her time in the hands of those people! Soon, a whole week of resting passed by, and Darius and the little Gardevoir family got closer. Now, Darius received a few little gifts from the Pokemon around him, especially the Zigzagoons who had developed the ability Pick Up, which worked like a sensor for finding things. One of these things was a small piece of amber that Darius called Piss Stone(tm) because it was funny and reminded him of a certain yellow gem that a certain blue hedhog liked.
Regardless, who was he talking to? Well, Kirlia, of course. The little thing was obsessed with shiny things, and the piss stone just happened to catch her eyes, and she was playing with it using her mind.
Literally.
"You don't have good control over your psionic abilities, little lady. If you break my piss stone, you'll have to give me another one." Darius warned her as he pulled a stick from Cerberus' red fluffy Mohawk. This little puppy has gotten really excited about running and jumping around, he got more energetic and puppy-like as well, but also more protective like a guardian, which was adorable. He also loved to roll around in places, which got a lot of sticks, leaves, and dirt in his fucking little adorable Mohawk. He also loved it when Darius would clean him with his hands, the moment he started to also bring water to the talk, he felt a little skittish. Like a good puppy, he kept his training consistent and very intense for his size.
Like, he started carrying a large log behind him now.
Besides his small change in personality (which wasn't a change than just an increase in something that was already there) and habits, Cerberus was the same old pup.
In just one week, their herd became used to the new additions, and it kept moving. At the speed they were going, they would arrive at their destination in about... He doesn't know! What? The destination could be anywhere! They'll stop when they stop. Darius gave Cerberus a [Attack] Pokeblock and told him to train his bite force while giving Jasper a [Energy Capacity] Pokeblock and telling him to hop around shadows as much as he could, trying to increase the range of his hopping and the speed at which he could appear and disappear. He also gave Shelly a [Energy Capacity] Pokeblock and told her to train her Life Dew move by creating as much water as she could, always trying to increase the potency of the move and the purity of the water. As for Arachne, he started to crochet and weave with her as he also tried to guide her into learning how to change the color of her silk, which was getting a little complicated, but she was slowly improving on that too!
A whole week passed, and Gardevoir was starting to be able to move again, and that was when it happened. Gardevoir reached out to him, and she asked if they could bond, which they did.
[You've unlocked your Fairy Affinity!]
Yep, he unlocked yet another affinity.
