Chapitre 134: Dr. Akihabara

Brock was sitting down with his face on a table, there was a sundae in front of him that he wasn't eating, meanwhile, everyone was at the same table with some sort of ice cream.

Brock was sad he did so bad, he only got in the top 3 due to a technicality, comparatively he had no chance to even qualify to participate in the Great race, much less get in the top 3 of that.

Lara looked at everyone who all seemed completely unfazed at Brock's actions and just kept eating their Ice Cream, Pikachu even walked over and stole Brock's sundae.

"How am I ever going to become a professional Breeder like this," Brock whimpered with his face on the table.

Lara pointed at Brock with her good arm and asked, "Is this normal?"

"Yeah, every now and then he gets a breakdown wondering if he should have left his Gym leader position to try and become a Breeder," Ash said as he took a sip from his milkshake.

Lara looked over at Brock's pitiful state, "You know, I'm not going to be able to practice like this for a while, how about I teach you a thing or two?"

Immediately Brock got up and almost jumped over the table as he grabbed Lara's hand and shook it profusely, "Really, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you."

A drop of sweat fell off Lara's face as she cleared her throat, "Very well, but I must warn you, my training will be hard and rigorous, and you won't be allowed to stop once we start,"

"Of Course, I'm ready for anything!" Brock said, not knowing how much of a mistake that was.

{a few moments later}

Brock and Rhyhorn were both running down the hill trying not to be crushed by a rolling rock behind them, this was somehow training.

"Common show some confidence!" Lara Yelled at the two, "You asked me to train you so I will show you everything there is to know, even if it kills you!"

"Don't you mean even if it Kills me!" Brock yelled as he barely dodged the boulder

Lara walked over to Brock's slumped-over body, "Yes that's what I said, now get back up your 5-minute break isn't until another 5 hours!"

Meanwhile Ash, Yellow, and Misty were sitting by with their Pokemon enjoying the show.

Yellow nervously looked at her friends, "Brock's going to be fine…right?"

Ash and Misty both looked at her and said the same thing, "Probably."

Unsurprisingly, that didn't quell Yellow's anxiety.

(With Ashtwo)

Things have been weird with Ashtwo, when Ash and Yellow time traveled, Ashtwo was fully conscious and it felt weird like sleep paralysis but much more disorienting.

But ignoring all that, he was currently getting some rest time where he wouldn't need to, let's call it generate income for Team Rocket. Over the course, he was focused on healing Drowzee and tending to his egg as he prepared for his own heist.

But currently, he needed to get to the next stage of his plan, which involved him getting to Matcha City, and finding Dr. Akihabara.

{Matcha City}

Dr. Akihabara was a very smart man, he was part of the original 3-man team that created the transfer system, Professor Oak was in charge of the PC space, while he and Bill worked on perfecting the teleportation technology.

But unlike his colleagues he asked to not be included in the final papers giving him credit for working on the project, that seems like a stupid decision, but don't worry it was.

But Dr. Akihabara had another goal, to create an artificial Pokemon, that was met with some distance from other colleagues but thankfully Oak and Bill believed in his goal.

With the money from his previous project, he started the development of the first artificial Pokemon, although he had to do everything by himself due to the criticism, he didn't care that only made his passion grow.

And eventually after countless long nights, and more fast food than one person should eat in their lives, he did it, he created the first Prototype, the Porygon.

Professor Oak even validated it himself by adding it to the Pokedex, bringing the Kanto Pokedex from 148 to 149. As for what happened to it, well he gave it to the legendary Red, the first person to complete the Kanto Pokedex, and to this day it is being held by Professor Oak.

However, that was not the end of the Porygon project, after all that Porygon was a Prototype. And after he was successful there was no shortage of People wanting to capitalize. But that is a story you will learn in a bit.

Currently, Dr. Akihabara was walking home after a repair job, he needed something to bring some income and since he knew more about the PC system than even Bill he got a decent job with that, and with the royalties he received from his big project he had a nice stable income.

As for home, he had a large two-story house, though unclean since he didn't have anyone to keep it nice for, but he did have some robotic companions roaming the house, it was sad and he knew it.

As Akihabara unlocked his house and saw his robots standing there he sighed under his breath, "I need a girlfriend."

One of the robots came up to him and took his coat as another gave him his lab coat, as he walked to the main room of his house, his laboratory.

But as he entered he saw something that truly made his heart sink, someone was in his room sitting on one of the desks reading one of his research papers.

The person appeared to be a Boy, he couldn't tell the age since his face was also covered but from his height, he looked to be 13-16, and a Meowth was resting on his legs, but what was most surprising was the unmistakable red 'R' on his coat.

"Who are You and what are you doing in my house?" Dr. Akihabara demanded, although he didn't actually have a way to defend himself on him, he didn't have any real Pokemon.

The boy who was actually Ash looked at Dr. Akihabara, "Relax, if I were here to hurt you or take something I would have already done it."

That made Dr. Akihabara less tense but still not comfortable, "So what are you here for?"

"Well, I think we can help each other, you want to continue with the Porygon project, and I want a Porygon," Ash said.

Dr. Akihabara frowned, "You think I would willingly hand over something like that to Team Rocket."

"I can see why you'd think that, but I can assure you, I'm only in Team Rocket to help take it down,"

"Ok, let's assume I believed you for a moment, what could you be looking for that needs a Porygon." Dr. Akihabara asked, looking at the stranger.

Ash smiled under his scarf, "Simple really, I only recently infiltrated Team Rocket and I need a way to gather information, so what better way than to hack them, I'm sure their Finances wouldn't miss a few million Pokedollers."

Dr. Akihabara thought to himself for a moment before shaking his head, "Although tempting I can help you, unfortunately, there are only 5 Porygon in the world at the moment."

"The first was the original and Professor Oak has it, I do have the second, the next 3 are in different regions being studied by the scientists over there, and unfortunately I can't give you the one I have."

"Why not, can't you make another one?"

Dr. Akihabara shook his head, "No, the plans for the Porygon were stolen and I'm currently trying to remake them using the one I have."

Ash rubbed his chin, "What if I helped you get them back."

Dr. Akihabara looked at Ash with a look of concern, "Imposible, It was Team Rocket who stole it, discussed as someone who wanted to work on it with me."

"So what's the problem? Tell me who did it and I can get them back for you."

Dr. Akihabara shook his head, "It's not that simple, tell me have you ever wondered why there is a Team Rocket base under Celadon City, and more specifically, right under Celadon gym."

Ash's eyebrows raised, "How do you know about that?"

"It's not public knowledge, not even the police are aware, but I know that at least the Champion knows about it. Unfortunately, they can't just barge into the place and raid the Team Rocket base, it's far more complicated, I don't even know the reason, but it has to do with him."

"Who is this guy, and how can he do all of that?"

"The one who stole my research is Team Rocket Admin Aster," Dr. Akihabara said as he went over to a computer and pulled up a file with a handsome man with Black hair and information about him.

 "He is currently a candidate for Executive, and more importantly, he is Gym leader Erika's father."

That news shocked Ash, but he also went back to the problem at hand, "Then trust in me, I can't promise you it will be soon but I will get those blueprints and take down this Aster for you."

Dr. Akihabara looked at Ash for a bit then seemed to study him before walking over to a computer and typing something in, "I don't completely trust you, but I don't really have any better options,"

Then on the computer, a Pokeball appeared, and he held it out to Ash, "I'll trust this to you, but be warned I installed failsafe so if you do try anything the Porygon will delete itself."

Ash smiled under his mask and he could sense that Dr. Akihabara was genuine in what he was saying, "Alright Dr. Akihabara, I promise you I'll take down Aster, and you'll get a nice bribe every now and then if you get what I'm saying."

Dr. Akihabara looked at him and laughed back as the ball was given to Ash, "Figures I have to put my faith in someone just as crazy. Just call me Aki, and what can I call you."

"Alright then, just call me D." Ash said as he held the Pokeball in his hand.

"Alright, I'll look forward to that bribe, I've been meaning to start some new projects and I'll need a good bit of money." Dr. Akihabara chuckled.

Ash smiled back, "Well then, I guess we're business partners then."

Ash was back at the Team Rocket base, specifically the one over in Saffron, he was currently looking over the Porygon. He took out his dex and had Porygon enter it so he could start updating it.

The Porygon itself was weird, for something meant to be a Pokemon it acted more like a robot, but that didn't matter as long as it could follow orders.

As Porygon went into the dex immediately the Upgrade chip he got started doing its work and Porygon's data was opened like a tab.

With all the options presented, he could do pretty much anything, he even managed to take out the fail-safe Dr. Akihabara put in, not that he was actually going to do something bad with it, so he gave it a few updates to improve it.

But the main thing he did was he split its consciousness into two parts so that it could enter computers without the risk of getting caught, but the second thing was that he gave it an actual personality.

As it was updating Drowzee was sitting next to him with a bowl of what looked to be a porridge-like substance.

Drowzee looked over at Ash, [How long do I need to keep eating this stuff?]

Ash looked over, "Just bear with it, until you're fully healed you need something easy to digest with proper nutrition, it should only be a few more days and you'll be able to eat regular food again."

Drowzee nodded and looked sadly at the bowl in his hands with the same food he'd been eating since he joined Ash, bland and flavorless.

As Drowzee was crying for his taste buds, the update was complete and his Pokedex made an audible ding.

"Porygon reporting for-zzzz duty!"

"Well that's neat, I wasn't expecting you to be like this," Ash said.

"Of course-zzz, after the update you gave me-zzz, I have more knowledge than I could have ever dreamed of sir!"

Ash shrugged and pulled out a watch he bought from Silph, it was one of those smartwatches that functioned like a second phone, "Alright, hop in, we need to start as soon as we can."

"Roger-Roger!" Porygon said as it left the dex and entered the watch, causing it to get a pinkish tint with blue accents.

Ash looked at it and nodded as he got up and returned Drowzee before leaving the room he was in, and he went over to a library where he knew there were some computers he could access.

Walking in he greeted the People inside and went over to one of the computers, he made it seem like he was doing some research as part of Porygon jumped into the computer.

As soon as it did, it accessed the wifi of the base and went through the signals to get to the main computer and start gathering information.

Chapitre 135: Fuchsia Free-For-All Race

It was finally the 7th day, Brock was worked down to near death then went further than that, and that's not even mentioning what Rhyhorn had to go through.

But he survived and Lara's arm was healed, or at least usable again, Ash specifically warned her to not do anything extreme since the fracture was technically still healing, but it would be fine for the race.

As for the day, there would only be one race that would start around the evening, as for the rest of the day it was going to be a more traditional festival, and as such non-racers were encouraged to wear kimonos or something similar.

Ash, Misty, and Yellow were just wearing the kimonos they got back in Maiden's Peak. Although Yellow just had to have her hair down since no one was around to do her hair.

Brock and Lara weren't around, they were probably getting ready for the great race, but the most important thing was that the Slowbro finished the race in record time, the winner was an up-and-coming rookie who allegedly came from the Galar region.

Don't misunderstand, it wasn't Galarian, it was just from Galar, and its name was… number 6, truly a fearsome name.

Currently, it was about mid-day and the race was about to be announced, Misty and Yellow left him alone to get some snacks before the race and Pikachu decided to go with them, leaving Ash alone sitting at the table.

Speaking of which, Ash has been doing his own training, currently, he is quite confident he should be able to take down Janine. He even got the most important mons ready.

Janine's team has 5 Pokemon as well with only 3 of them being Venomoth, Tentacruel, and a Ariados. Now that is confusing that she convinced the league to let her use an Ariados, but since the merging they have allowed it, but they did ban Crobat.

Not that she needs it, Venomoth has the infamous Tinted Lens sleep powder strat, and guess what there is no sleep clause here, Tentacruel is meant to be a tank that sets up toxic spikes, but Ariados is the worst offender.

Although it is not her main Ariados so it is significantly weaker, it still has Sniper with a Scope Lens, then with moves like Cross Poison and Focus Energy, and you might as well give the thing a sniper rifle with how hard it's going to be hitting.

And once again that's not counting her other 2 Pokemon that aren't set, this will be extremely annoying because obviously Poison types.

But as he was thinking he heard a familiar voice, "Mind if I take a seat?"

Looking up at the source he saw Janine wearing her regular Ninja outfit, "Sure, grab a chair, I was just thinking about you actually."

Janine sat down and looked over at Ash giving a sly smirk, "Fufufufu… don't tell me you have a crush on me~"

Ash rolled his eyes, "Dream on, I was thinking about how I'm going to destroy you when I challenge you tomorrow."

"Oh yeah, kinda forgot you were challenging the gyms, I guess having to wait a full week to challenge me was annoying."

Ash shrugged, "I've had worse, remember the S.S. Anne."

"Yeah, that was suuuper disorienting, especially since you fell overboard right."

"Yeah, but you know I'd like to not talk about it," Ash said looking away, acting like he was embarrassed.

"Alright, alright but I'd be happy to accept your challenge, but I'll show you what it means to be a ninja master!" Janine replied as she pointed to herself with her thumb.

"By the way I wanted to ask, why aren't you wearing something for the festivities?" Ash asked, looking down at her choice of apparel.

Janine froze in place as she gave a pitiful expression, "Well you see… everybody in Fuchsia Gym disguises themselves to look like me for practice and, you know, challengers have good things to say about it, but…nobody realizes it's me if I ever dress up,"

"Whenever I dress up, everybody asks if it's just another disguise. I mean...that's not really my intention, so I just gave up at one point." Janine said sheepishly, each word getting slightly quieter after each one.

"Well I see how that would be annoying," Ash said.

Janine looked over and gave a mocking smile, "Isn't this the part where you say, 'Shame you'd look so pretty in one' and then you ask me out or something."

Ash's eye twitched as he turned to Janine, "You have been reading too many novels."

"Wa-how did you know I've been reading…those stories" Janine quickly responded with a hint of embarrassment.

"You sound like you're quoting a 1930s smut novel on how two pre-teens not wanting to hold hands because it's too lewd," Ash said seeing Janine get significantly redder.

"Okay fine, but in my defense, I spent most of my childhood training, and social situations were not a part of it."

"Yeah well in mine it's a little thing called, I am 10, in case you haven't caught on." 

"Oh, yeah that would put a damper on things, though you act and look older, but I guess that's how genetics work sometimes," Janine said, trying to railroad the conversation.

"Never met my father so I don't really know how I'm gonna look when I finally grow up," Ash said looking unbothered with his hand holding up his head.

"Wow really. I can't imagine that, my father is a member of the Elite Four, he's one of the best Pokémon Trainers in the world! inherited my Gym and my techniques from him." Janine said starting a tangent about Koga

Ash just looked at Janine and gave her a dry look. "Wow, way too flex on the fatherless child, the fatherless activity counsel will hear about this."

Janine turned red in embarrassment, "Wa- no no I didn't mean- did you say fatherless activity counsel, that's not a thing."

Ash snorted and gave a mocking smile of his own, "You'd be surprised."

Janine raised her finger but she couldn't bring herself to say anything, just then Misty and Yellow walked back with Pikachu and Chuchu in tow and noticed Janine.

Yellow walked over to greet Janine and Misty sat down to look over at Ash, "Is it just me or have we been hanging out with Gym leaders more often?"

Ash shrugged, "I dunno, you're asking me like I go out of my way to meet them,"

Misty and Yellow looked at each other and both asked, "Don't you? x 2"

"Wa- *Sigh* (▼ヘ▼#)" Ash responded, "No of course not, everyone I've run into was an accident or caused by someone else, look at Janine here, the only reason I met her was cuz of the S.S. Anne."

"And the only reason we went on the S.S. Anne was because I kicked Surge's teeth in and he broke my arm."

Misty gave a coy smile, "And what about Erika,"

Ash glared back at Misty, "Don't you start this, I will bring Beedrill back out and put you on the wall,"

Misty closed her mouth like she bit into a lemon, and Yellow and Janine saw how quickly that turned.

Janine coughed getting the attention back to her, "Well anyway, I guess other than Ash we haven't formally met each other then, and I guess we have time."

It was time, the racers who wanted to participate were on their Pokemon, and in line, Brock was holding onto Rhyhorn as Lara and Ponyta were standing next to him on the starting line.

Brock was visibly sweating causing Lara to look over at him, "How are you holding up? The girl asked in her familiar country accent.

"I'm fine, I guess," Brock sighed as he looked over at the girl, "Can't really say I'm too confident though,"

"C'mon, you'll do fine, but just to warn you If I don't see you in the top 5, I'm putting you under the hard training."

Brock's eye twitched, "That was easy?"

Lara just gave a coy smile which made Brock instinctively gulp.

Just then the announcer spoke up, [Hello Ladies and Gentlemen to the Fuchsia Free-For-All Race!]

[I won't hold you for too long but these racers are some of the best we've seen in some time, I can't wait to see what they have in store for us!]

[I'll lay out the rules now, each contender will go through the race and obstacle course with their chosen Pokemon, if at any point the Rider touches the ground you will be eliminated, you are allowed to use moves to get through and you may attack the Pokemon, but if your move intentionally causes harm to the rider then you are out.]

[This race has been designed especially for any and all contenders, factoring in all their strengths and weaknesses, and finally, this race is sponsored by the Breeding competition, as such the top 3 will be awarded with a victory. Oh and I think this is obvious but no Flying Pokemon.]

[Now it's the moment you've been waiting for, 3…2 ...1…race!!] The announcer Yelled over the intercoms causing all the Pokemon and racers to charge as fast as they could.

As the race was starting Brock was holding on while trying to remember everything Lara taught him about proper positioning to make them more aerodynamic.

Speaking of which Lara sped past Brock and most other Pokemon that weren't built for speed like Rhyhorn, they were all rapidly approaching the obstacle course section.

The obstacle course was as expected an obstacle course where racers like Lara and Ponyta would need to maneuver around and across doing quick maneuvers and sharp jumps.

Meanwhile, Pokemon like Brock's Rhyhorn could just go through with no loss of speed closing the distance, and slowly gathering momentum.

Immediately by this point, Brock noticed about half of the competitors were worn out or just gave up, at the beginning there were around 80 trainers, now there are barely 50. The majority of them were strong Pokemon in the back like Rhyhorn.

Up in the front Lara and Ponyta were getting farther ahead with only a few people behind her trying to catch up but failing as the obstacles continued. Some even tried and failed to use a move causing them to just lose momentum and fall out of the race.

After a few moments, the obstacles stopped coming and the second part was coming up, the mountain climb. Ponyta wasn't an expert in climbing but it was significantly better than most of the Pokemon around her at the moment.

Brock on the other hand was near the back only ahead of other Rhyhorn, but the mountain was where he could thrive since most Rhyhorn live in mountain areas and are good climbers, as he got to the base of the mountain Rhyhorn used a [Rock Polish] and started jumping and continuing his charge.

This was the point where more racers started giving up or just falling off, with the unpredictability of the mountain and how steep it is most Pokemon just can't handle it, even the other Rhyhorn and that one random guy who got a Rhyhorn fell behind.

As the race continued Ponyta and a few other fast Pokemon managed to get over the mountain and got a significant lead over the rest of the Pokemon, and only then did Brock reach the peak of the mountain.

When Brock looked over the scene he saw how far ahead they were so he took a breath and grabbed onto Rhyhorn as hard as he could, suddenly Rhyhorn started running down the mountain.

With how steep the mountain was and how heavily Rhyhorn was he gathered a lot of momentum, so much so that he could barely stop himself from rolling down the hill.

As he reached the base he dashed past anyone nearby as with the added momentum he was actually moving faster than Ponyta, the only downside being that he had almost no way to stop himself or move left or right.

The finish line was in sight, Lara was in first place with about 5 others following behind, and from the back, the dust cloud that was Brock and Rhyhorn were running to catch up and they were gaining ground.

As Brock was quickly gaining ground he released a certain flaw with his plan, he didn't think about how he was going to stop this thing so he commanded Rhyhorn to dig his feet into the ground.

Rhyhorn stabbed his feet into the ground, but that didn't stop his movement; he was still sliding across the dirt path and quickly catching up to Lara and the others.

Lara and Ponyta meanwhile easily crossed first place with no issues, Brock was passing the people in 5th and 4th while still desperately trying to slow down.

2nd place was taken by a random competitor so it was currently a race for 3rd place, that was if Brock could gain control again.

As Brock was catching up Rhyhorn was trying to do his feet deeper in the ground, eventually, Brock was only a few feet away when suddenly Rhyhorn started glowing.

Rhyhorn's body became larger as both his arms and legs became longer, his tail extended and the horn extended into a Drill, evolving into Rhydon.

Immediately Rhydon raised his new arms and dug them into the ground, this time Rhydon started slowing down.

Brock and Rhydon were neck and neck with a trainer with a Tauros, and as the finish line approached the Tauros was giving it his all and Rhydon was sliding through the dirt, and when they got to the end Rhydon just barely won by the horn.

At that point Rhydon dug his hands deeper causing him to come to a stop and making Brock fall off and land in a corner, everyone stayed silent until Brock's shaking arm raised up indicating that he was fine.

After that, the crowd went wild and the Announcer spoke up [What an outstanding race, truly one of the most exciting races I've had the honor to announce, let's congratulate the top 3 of this year's Fuchsia Free-For-All.]

The crowd started cheering as some helpers walked up with 3 medals, each embroidered with a purple and green ribbon with a gold, silver, and bronze tag respectively, each handed out to the three.

Rhydon picked up Brock and put him over his shoulder after he received his medal, getting applause from people.

As the racers got settled back down to get anything they needed the Announcer continued. [Well thank you everybody for joining me today, I hope the festival will be just as enjoyable for everyone else and re- wa!]

Suddenly he stopped because next to him Janine appeared out of seemingly nowhere and asked, "Do you mind if I do something?"

"Oh, of course here," the announcer quickly handed the mic to Janine as she spoke [Hello everyone, it is Gym leader Janine here, I hope you're all enjoying the festival even though the main event is over]

That got some cheers and grunts from the crowd as she continued, [But we don't have to stop now, I hear there's a Gym challenger in the crowd here to face me, and since the Gym has been closed for this entire week I don't think we should let him wait.]

[So as the Fuchsia Gym leader, I issue an official battle request, do you accept Ash Ketchum!]
