章 35: Chapter 35: Fourth Pokémon
"Finally, we made it to the Pokémon Centre safe and sound."
Aeron, Nessa and Misty panted for their breath. Fame was a blessing and a curse as people started surrounding him when he tried to leave while many reporters shoved microphones to his face asking for an interview.
"You should get used to it starting today." Nessa chuckled as she felt the same in Galar Region. Thankfully, her fame as a model had not spread out of the region yet. "Let's get a room; I want to see your egg."
They entered the Pokémon Centre with Aeron trying his best to hide his face as they approached Nurse Joy, who was busy working on her computer.
"Hello. How can I help you?" Nurse Joy raised her head, and her eyes widened in surprise before she hid it behind a smile. "Congratulations on winning the [PKC]."
"Thank you so much." Aeron politely nodded, and Nurse Joy chuckled when she saw his attempts to hide his face as a couple of reporters entered the Pokémon Centre. "We would like three rooms till Sunday."
Nurse Joy nodded before she took their Pokedex and registered them for three separate rooms. "The rooms are adjacent to each other." She handed the Pokedex back to them. "Anything else I can do for you?"
"Our Pokémon have been through hardcore training for the last two weeks. Can you give them a checkup?" Nessa asked.
Nurse Joy nodded with a smile while pulling out a tray and presenting it to them to place their Pokeballs on it.
"I will send a message on your Pokedex when they are ready." Nurse Joy handed the tray to Chansey while adding. "Do keep in mind, if there is any evidence of physical abuse, it will reflect on your Trainer License."
The three trainers nodded their heads, not bothered by her words.
"Anything else?"
"I would like to rent an Egg Incubator," Aeron asked while showing Nurse Joy the egg he had received as a reward.
"That will be 500 League Points."
Aeron winced at the cost but paid it nonetheless. It might seem expensive, but Egg Incubator could easily decrease the hatching of an egg from a month to a few hours.
"Return it here at the front desk once you have used it." Nurse Joy helped Aeron place the egg inside the Egg Incubator filled with an unknown solution. "Oh? It will hatch in 6 hours; take good care of it."
"Perfect, thank you for everything!" Aeron took the Egg Incubator from her. They said good night to Nurse Joy before walking away.
They all entered Aeron's room, and he placed the Incubators on the bed.
"I think it will be an Electric-type, but I can also be wrong."
"Mhm!" The two girls nodded their heads with excitement.
"I still remember when Wartortle hatched from his egg." Misty talked about the Indigo Turtle. "He was so little and cute."
"Aeron's Growlithe was an egg as well." Nessa had seen Growlithe hatch from an egg, and it was a wonderful experience. "I never had a chance to see any egg hatch other than the doggo." She could not wait for these two to hatch as well.
"The egg will hatch in six hours, and it is almost midnight, so..."
"I will stay in your room." Nessa cut him off as her eyes never left the egg.
"Me too, just make some for us," Misty looked around the room before pointing at the couch. "That's yours, and we will take the bed."
"You do realize that this is my room, right?"
"Or you could join us in the bed."
"..."
"..."
Aeron and Misty looked at the girl who was still looking at the egg with her ocean-blue eyes, but they could see her face was flushed red after blurting that out.
-0-
'997.
'.998.'
'..999..'
'..1...00...0.'
Aeron dropped to the floor after the 1000th handstand pushup. His gaze darted around the room as he looked at every resident that had made his room theirs, along with their Pokémon.
Axew was sleeping on the couch with drool flowing from the corner of its mouth. Pidgey and Larvesta were cuddled together on the other side of the same couch. Horsey had decided to sleep in his bathtub while Growlithe was cuddled by Nessa and Misty, who were fast asleep on his bed.
At first, everyone decided to stay awake and wait for the egg, but everyone was fast asleep after an hour. Aeron was the only one left awake as he kept training his body the whole night...he did not want to risk his Psychic Powers being found since they were too flashy. He could explain himself doing handstands but not items floating in the room.
His lips curved into a smile as he felt a slight connection with the Pokémon Egg placed on the table. 'It will hatch soon.' A mental link was formed between him and the Pokémon inside that egg from the moment he got it from Mayor Gideon. He knew what Pokémon it was and had lied in his guess.
The link was somewhat similar to what Aeron had felt when he saw Axew's egg. But instead of being based on his emotions, it was more with his mind.
'Can't wait for you to hatch.' The egg twitched a little in response causing the Duskborn to smile.
Putting the thought of Pokemon Egg away for a second, Aeron wiped the sweat off his forehead and gulped down a whole water bottle. He removed his sweat-drenched t-shirt and walked toward the one large window in his room. He carefully pulled the blinds so the light won't hit the girls and looked outside.
He opened the window, and a cool morning breeze assaulted his body. Over the last month, his Pokémon were not the only one's training, as Aeron had also worked himself to death. After the Viridian Forest incident, he wanted to get stronger and awakening these supernatural made things easier for him.
He was never unfit, but his current body was very different from a month ago. His muscles would get tired and destroyed as he trained under gravity, but he never had to wait for them to heal. The Fighting-type Energy in his body made sure his body was at peak condition shortly after he was done training.
Therefore, his progress over the last month could only be defined as insane. His body which was not weak nor strong and towards the lean side now had defined muscles. He was not jacked, something he found impractical as a trainer who would have to run around the forests or climb mountains. His build was similar to a swimmer's but with a bit more muscle.
Aeron clenched his fists and felt the strength in his body. 'Something like this would have been impossible without the Fighting-type Energy.'
*Gulp*
*Gulp*
He frowned and looked toward the two girls who were looking...peeking at him from behind the blanket.
"Good morning." He flashed them a smile. "How long were you guys up for?"
"J-Just now?" Misty said, but her words did not sound too convincing.
Aeron kept looking at the two before Nessa relented. "Since you removed your t-shirt and opened the window?"
"Sorry for waking you up." He sighed as he felt bad for waking up the girls. He could make up for his sleep with his powers, but they could not, and he knew the girls were tired and needed rest. "I will..."
~Ding~
He wanted to say something, but the sudden sound made everyone look toward the Egg Incubator on the table.
Aeron immediately walked toward the egg and removed it from the incubator while the girls jumped out of the sheets. They were all waiting for the egg to hatch.
The trio watched as a part of the egg shone in white light before it was engulfed by it. They had to close their eyes and cover them with their arms from the sudden flash. It took a few seconds before the light died down, and the three young trainers looked at the Pokémon sitting before them.
"...Ra..."
"I-It's...so cute!" Misty gushed at the yellow fox, but it suddenly disappeared from the table and appeared on Aeron's head.
"...Raaa..." A yellow fox yawned before it dropped its head and started snoring.
"Don't be sad; Abra tends to [Teleport] when they sense danger." Aeron picked up the yellow fox from his head and tapped its head with a Pokeball.
*Wiggle*
*Wiggle*
~Ding~
He caught the Pokémon before immediately releasing it.
"Abra...you got yourself a powerful Pokémon." Nessa approached forward very slowly, not wanting the little fox to [Teleport] again.
"I want to pick it as well!" Misty kicked the floor, and the yellow fox opened one eye before he immediately shut it.
"....ra..."
It let out a snore telling the orange-haired girl it was sleeping.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Pfft!" Nessa and Aeron broke into laughter while Misty just snorted and looked away.
The commotion had also woken all the Pokemon, and now everyone was surrounding the baby fox.
"Axew!" the Dragon was happy to see another family member while Larvesta walked toward it before poking Abra's cheeks with its tiny feet.
"Drink this, and then you can sleep comfortably." Aeron took out a bottle of Miltank Milk and gave it to the yellow fox, who started drinking it while eyeing everyone in the room. It didn't take long before it finished the milk and returned to snoring.
"Wuuu...!" The orange puppy was still sleepy, so it just let out a cute whine that meant 'welcome to the family' from the bed before falling back asleep, but not before it was blasted with a [Water Gun] by Horsea.
"Awooo!" Growlithe let out a small...doggo scream? It yelped up and looked at the Horsea hiding behind Nessa after pulling a prank.
"Woof!" The orange puppy immediately jumped toward Horsea and started chasing it. Growlithe immediately caught Horsea before it was pressed down to the ground and tickled to death. Soon, they were joined by Axew, Larvesta and Pidgey.
The two girls ignored the Pokémon wrestling with each other and sat on either side of Aeron, eagerly waiting for him to do something.
"What?"
"Scan it!"
Aeron chuckled as he knew what they wanted and was teasing them. He recalled the Abra inside its Pokeball to sleep peacefully before scanning the Luxury Ball with his dex.
-0-
[Abra, the Psi Pokémon. Using its ability to read minds, it will identify impending danger and [Teleport] to safety. They need to sleep for eighteen hours a day. If it doesn't, this Pokémon loses its ability to use telekinetic powers].

"It just amazes me that a Baby Pokemon can so seamlessly use an [Move] as advanced as [Teleport]." Nessa could not hold back her surprise. How could a newly born Pokémon already have a move on Beginner-stage?
"Abra or even Alakazam have fragile bodies, but their Psychic Powers are some of the best in the world. Even a Pseudo-Legendary like Metagross cannot compare to a fully grown Alakazam in terms of raw Psychic Energy." Misty shared her knowledge of the Pokémon; one of her sisters had one, so she knew a lot about the species. "As for being able to use [Teleport] at Baby-stage? Every Abra is born with this move to protect themselves. Thanks to their Psychic Powers, they are very intelligent and can learn it in seconds after being born; that's why you can seldom catch an Abra if you encounter it in the wilds. As soon as they sense you, they [Teleport] away."
"It will be a strong Pokémon in future." Nessa could not help but say.
"I would be lying if I said I didn't want an Alakazam in my roster." Aeron looked at the Psi Pokémon's Luxury Ball, and his lips curved into a smile.
"But I want to cuddle with it." Misty was still mad about Abra teleporting away from her.
"Maybe you scared it?" Aeron said and laughed when he saw a vein pop on Misty's forehead.
"You know what? Screw this!" Misty stood up and walked away, but suddenly Aeron felt something incoming and tried to dodge his head, but a pillow smacked right into his face.
"How was that?" Misty stood on the bed with her fists on her waist.
Aeron grabbed the pillow and looked at the orange-haired girl as his lips twitched slightly. "Game is on!"
He didn't allow her to react and grabbed her by the legs before throwing her onto the bed.
"Wait! Time out!" Misty screamed when she saw Aeron standing beside her with a pillow in his hand.
"Git good!" He immediately smacked the pillow on her face.
"~Kyaaa~" Misty covered her face before she used her legs to drop Aeron on the bed and held the bedsheet before jumping at him with it. "Git good, you noob!"
She immediately started attacking him with a pillow before Aeron turned around and pushed her onto the bed. He pressed her down from the wrists. "Who's the noob now?"
"You both!"
"Huh?" Aeron and Misty turned to the side, and Nessa jumped at them with another bedsheet. The girl let out a sadistic laugh while she was at it.
"Muahahaha!"
