章 167: 167. Taken Care Of
"So the Soul Dew shattered there. Seeing that the city of Alto Mare was about to be swallowed by the the huge tsunami," Brock slowly began to tell everyone how Ash had caught his Latias.
Flashback to the Alto Mare incident, Brock's perspective—
Ash roared violently, "Come back here!" Both Latios and Latias stopped immediately after hearing Ash's loud voice.
Ash then rode on his Raikou and jumped to the top of the museum and rang the Tidal Bell he carried with him. Lugia, the Guardian of the Sea, responded to the call and cooperated with both Latias Latios with the others to stop the tsunami from hitting Alto Mare.
Flashback ends, present day with the group at the Pokémon Center—
Brock was then pulled by Delia and the two Pokémon Professors to explain to them the critical moments of that time. He felt like a storyteller, and Professor Oak and the other three were stunned over again and again.
Misty and Molly sat aside, holding the snacks made by Delia, eating with relish and listening happily to them constantly asking Brock questions about anything and everything.
Ash ignored them and decided to take his Pikachu, Latias and the newborn Larvitar to the grassland outside of the Pokémon Center.
This Pokémon Center is also located close to the seaside, but it has lush grassland on the other side of the hill. It is a very beautiful place with mountains on one side and the sea on the other side, with pleasant scenery all around.
Larvitar was hugged by Ash and he took him to his arm. He did not resist or huddle up to him at all. He just opened his big red eyes and looked at the sea infront of him with only a little bit of emotion showing in them.
"Larvitar, this is the outside world. In front of you is the sea, and above the sea is the beautiful soaring sky, which extends far and wide to every corner of the planet!" Under the warm sun, it can make anyone feel comfortable and safe in its warmth.
Ash was a little thankful for the hurricane rain that happened just last night. After the rain, the scenery became particularly cold but very comforting.
Ash put Larvitar on the ground. Even he couldn't hold such a heavy little guy for such a long time and so he decided to let Larvitar feel the grass and the breeze.
He gently tapped the long horn on Larvitar's head, "This world is not as scary as it's seems! It's a very big, warm, and a very interesting place all at the same time. This is our home."
Ash took Pikachu of his shoulder and Latias also lay down on the grad field next to him with her head now on his lap, "Relax a little like this, lie on the grass, Larvitar, you can try it too, it's fun!"
"Pika pika!"
At this moment, the Hoppips flew into the distance with the wind, and the Butterfrees that had completed their evolution began to leave the jungle where they grew up in groups to find their own mating partner and explore the distance with their new wings.
Latias's eyes suddenly shone with white light from Ash's lap, and different scenes suddenly appeared inside of Larvitar's mind.
It was hatched by Ash's call and with the help of his Aura. When he gave up on himself and refused to come to the outside world, it was Ash who cheered it in his mind over and over again until he was safely hatched.
"Larvitar, come on, I know you can do it. I will definitely help you!" This is the voice Larvitar heard most after he was born into this world.
Larvitar looked at Ash who was sitting beside him, now showing a look of dependence.
Jumpluff noticed Larvitar and the others, slowly began to fall down, and danced beside them to cheer up that melancholy look on his face.
They were not the only ones who could dance, several Bellossoms came out of nowhere, spinning and jumping around Larvitar.
They could all see something was wrong with Larvitar and so they decided to come together to help him cheer up.
Larvitar stiffened for a moment, but quickly relaxed his guard. Ash gently stroked his head, "We are all your companions here, Larvitar!"
"Look carefully, everything here is a sight to see, right? They are not scary at all, they are here for you! Those Bellossoms are dancing a welcome dance for you being born into this place!"
Larvitar finally smiled a little, with tears in the corner of his red eyes.
It was very unfortunate that he suffered such a hardship before he was even born. But he was also very lucky that he was able to meet a gentle human like Ash right after he harried from his Egg.
Seeing that he had finally opened ip his heart, Ash looked at him and smiled, "Larvitar, welcome to this world!"
Then, Ash took out of his Poké Ball and said, "Tyranitar, I need your help partner!"
Yesterday, Ash had exchanged both her and his Typhlosion from the Lab. Because his Lapras was sent to the sea with the rest of his tribe, he transferred his Tyrouge back and gave it to his newly evolved Annihilape for some basic training to make his foundation better.
"TY!"
Tyranitar roared directly after coming out of her Poké Ball, and it looked like she was still wearing the Macho Brace Ash gave her, but it seemed to have no effect at all with her current power.
Of course she was excited that Ash had decided to take her with him for the rest of the trip, making sure to train her to be the one of his strongest Pokémon's in his current team and the Lab!
As soon as such a ferocious Pokémon appeared, Larvitar and the rest of the Pokémon there were immediately frightened and became stiff, but soon Larvitar felt a special feeling.
This is the same scent as his mother!
Larvitar raised his head and looked at the tall and mighty Tyranitar who was now licking Ash, and suddenly a stronger emotion suppressed all his fear!
Larvitar's perception was very keen. Their species are known for being born deep under the ground, eating dirt while moving towards the ground and see their loved ones are. So they can sense changes in the outside world while still being inside the Egg like many other Pokémon's, but much stronger.
When Ash found out that his Tyranitar, who was still in Professor Oak's Lab back then, never took of the Macho Brace he gave her and always wore ai no matter what. Now, she has been trained into a real ferocious beast with him training it on some of his resting spots or while she was in the Lab. Even if she can't beat Lance's Ace Dragonite, she will definitely give him a run for his money.
Larvitar can sense the powerful aura that was radiating off the giant in front of him. Rather than fear, he felt a kind of worship that only comes from the depths of his soul!
Looking at his longing eyes, Ash smiled and said, "Don't worry, little guy, you will become a powerful being like her in the future if you continue to work hard!"
The growth of a Psuedo-Legendary requires a lot of hard work, and the Pokédex also had data recorded that stayed there was an incident where a Larvitar ended up eating a whole mountain when it was hungry.
Lance is sometimes called the invincible Dragon Messenger by his fans, but he only trains one kind of that Dragon-type, and that is his Dragonite. Like this, he also trained at least two more Dragonairs for his team. They trained in the unparalleled Double Dragon Dance, but their evolution into a Dragonite is obviously still a bit way off from their current power.
This is why Claire is so concerned about her Dratini's shedding. She has devoted a lot of effort to her Dratini in order to make it very strong when evolving in the future.
Ash also caught himself a Dratini for his team, and he was mentally prepared that his Dratini maybe could not complete his final evolution into a Dragonite even before his next journey was completed.
"Tyran!"
Tyranitar glanced condescendingly at the little guy next to Ash, reached out and took the long horn on his head and picked him up.
This Larvitar is so well-behaved that he didn't move even one bit, allowing Ash's Tyranitar to take him off the ground.
Then Ash saw his Tyranitar put the Larvitar around her shoulders and stood up like a big boss. Larvitar suddenly became very excited and no longer feared anything like before.
Seeing that they were playing well, Ash smiled and said, "Tyranitar, I leave this little guy to you for now!"
Tyranitar happily nodded. Sure enough, the big girl is very gentle.
Now that Professor Oak was here, there is no need for Ash and his party to walk back by themselves, so they return to New Bark Town with Professor Oak and Ash's mom on Professor Oaks car.
————————————————————
"I am Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town, and I want to register for the Silver Conference of the Johto Region!" Inside the Pokémon Center in New Bark Town Ash was finally able to complete his registration for the Silver Conference.
"Then, Misty, Brock, Ash, I'll leave it to you from here on out!" Delia said goodbye to Ash again, "Molly, are you going back to Pallet Town with me , or are you going to Mt. Silver with your Big Brother?"
Molly said without any thinking needed, "I want to go to the Silver Conference with Big Brother, and then I'll go home!"
Hearing this, everyone smiled, and Professor Elm handed Larvitar, who had completed his health check, to Ash, "Ash, Larvitar will be sent to the Mt. Silver Pokémon Sanctuary! I believe you will make sure that he is completely cared for until he gets there."
"Okay!" Ash smiled as he took the Larvitar, "Then, look forward to me coming back with being titled the Champion of the Silver Conference!"
