Capítulo 236: First contact
I asked Tank if it had stolen the clothes from that place but he denied it and added that he made sure no one saw him take it to begin with. I had thought about flying straight to the place but decided against it as I didn't know how the locals would react to an unknown person. I assume that they would be cautious so walking was the better option as it let them prepare more after spotting me if they so wanted to. I have to say though that there was something to be said about this ancient version of Orre.-
The normal populations of pokemon and sheer amount of greenery including trees made the entire region WAY colder than it's present day version. I mean it was to be expected I suppose since a lot of the heat from the sun gets taken by the plants rather than held and radiated back up from the sands. One big thing that I was thrilled to see however was that there were a lot more ancient variants around but considering how far in the past I was that wasn't all that odd.-
The "ancient" times were a lot closer in this time than in the present so the genetics for it weren't as recessive here. I was rather tempted to head back to the basecamp to collect as many samples as I could but resisted that urge. One thing I thought was worth noting about these wild pokemon was that elite specimens were basically nonexistent. I saw only a single one over the span of an entire days walking. That single one I saw was a Salamence that was clearly returning from a hunt as it had the limp form of a Tauros in it's claws.-
Obviously I didn't jump to conclusions from this small sample size but I had honestly thought that without so much human interference the wild pokemon would be more like what I saw in the mountain range between Orre and Rota. Though now that I think about it Giratina actually having a tangible presence in this region might be the reason for the lower power levels I saw. Powerful pokemon tended to carve out areas of territory for themselves but it is possible that that instinct has been suppressed due to the legendries active presence.-
Still i camped out at the end of the day rather than push on for the last few hours needed to reach the settlement as visiting at night would be VERY suspicious. People had this historical tendency both in this world and on earth to associate the night with evil and that was not exactly the best first impression you could give. That said I highly doubted that my campfire wasn't visible from the village as the human eye is extremely good at picking up light from far away. This too worked in my favor as it meant that the place would more than likely be expecting my approach tomorrow.-
I was right as in the morning when I approached the village there was an old man with a Kadabra waiting for me outside the village. "Halt! Thou art not familiar! Name thyself and thine purpose!" the old man demanded in a very outdated form of common. I felt the pokemon next to him attempt to probe my mind but was repelled by my aura. "Mine name is Drake, wandering healer from afar!" I called back calmly. "Thou art a shaman? Many pardons for mine unbecoming welcome, this one hadn't known." the old man said apologizing and bowing.-
"Tis no fault of thine own for it was not clear." I said pardoning the man while trying really hard not to cringe. For a modern person like me speaking like this was the height of cringe worthy and was awkward. "Most gracious of thee sire, please hesitate not if this one can be of service. Our resources art not plentiful but at your disposal." he said humbly. 'It seems aura masters are treated in a similar manner to nobility, good to know.' I thought as the man led me into the village.-
The buildings were made of simple stones mortared together and capped with wood and hay. The "road" was more a trodden down dirt path than anything else and the inhabitants of the village cautiously watched me from their homes. "I beg of thee understanding on behalf of this ones people, visitors are a rare thing in these parts." the old man said humbly but i shook my head "This one is but a humble healer, a servant to all whom require aid. Thou'st need not seek mine understanding." I said and he relaxed greatly.-
"Thine magnamity truly speaks of thine character well." he praised with a smile. After that I asked about the region and the way of life here while the villagers started warming up to me. None of them found my questions odd since I had said that I was from a land far away. They also didn't seem to question any slip up I had when speaking for the same reason. Make no mistake I DID slip up as it was very hard to actively speak in the manner that they did when I was most definitely not a native to it.-
Hell common wasn't even my first language but something I had to practice a lot when I first came to this world while actively stopping myself from slipping back into english. It was a rough time at first but by now I spoke the language just as fluently as any local, better in some cases. For this reason alone the skill was sitting at master mastery in my status page. Having such a mastery wasn't the be all end all though as there was transcendent after that that I had an idea about how I could go about reaching.-
If speaking the language like a native was what it took to get the master then to get to transcendent I assume that I'd have to be able to speak any dialect or accent of the language as well so this was good practice. Anyways from my questions I learned a few things that clarified some of my doubts. First was that yes Giratina was responsible for the docileness of the local pokemon population and low amount of elite level pokemon. Second was that Aura masters or shamans as they were called were considered blessed by the gods and thus noble inherently regardless of birth status.-
Third was that most aura masters were kind of assholes normally due to this favoritism going to their heads from a young age. Like they weren't bullies or anything but they were rude when they spoke more often than not with no respect for anyone other than fellow aura masters or legendary pokemon. Finally was that healers were VERY sought after everywhere due to their scarcity from both secrecy and difficulty in learning the profession even more so if they had the ability as well. Thanks to this I had accidentally set myself on a very high pedestal with my made up backstory.

Capítulo 237: Change of plans and variant hunting
Let me tell you people really needed a healer around too. In this village alone I came across no less than eighteen bones that had broken and been healed out of alignment. Reason being that they had no healer and they had work that needed to be done and thus could waste time on such a thing. It was pretty hardcore if I'm being honest but annoying to deal with as the villagers all wanted something to take away the pain these past injuries caused them regularly.-
It wasn't a particularly hard thing to do though rather tedious since it was basically the same thing over and over again. I could have just broken the bone again and reset it in the correct position before healing it but that seemed a bit too much. Instead I just made some pain relieving potions from nearby plants and handed that over instead. Still this was more than enough for these villagers to believe my backstory entirely and basically hand over any information I asked for. For example there was no real kingdom or anything like that in the region so much as a sort of theocracy I suppose with Giratina calling the shots.-
There was apparently four priestesses blessed by the godly pokemon that acted as both the go between for communicating with the legendary as well as the enforcers of the laws it set in each of the four directions of the region. Recently however there was rumor that the four priestesses had been struck with some sort of affliction. That was my first clue that something was going on behind the scenes. An illness might not be all that odd in and of itself but when that illness effected the four linchpin individuals with a direct connection to Giratina itself that raised a red flag.-
I also learned that Giratina slumbered most of the time and left the worldly matters to it's priestesses. According to these people this was because the legendary was blessing the land but I had my doubts. I could understand Groudon and Kyogre slumbering since their jobs were to create the seas and lands but Giratina was the embodiment of matter itself and thus probably shouldn't be slumbering. I mean from the way I understand the creation trio they each had an active job in maintaining the fundamental forces of the world and thus were always on the clock as it were.-
I left the village after about a day there gathering information and when I was far enough away I had Rune fly down and take me back to the base camp. I needed to think about what my next move would be based on the information i had gathered. "Okay so far I know that I should probably go take a look at these priestess people since the villagers didn't have any details to share on whatever that illness was. Beyond that I may need to take a risk and go to Giratina as well to figure out the source of the problem."-
"Finally I want to go looking for any double or more variants that may be around this region to collect DNA samples from." I said after I got back to the base camp. "En, En Entei, En?" Vulcan questioned. "Well since a lot of ancient variants are around naturally it only makes sense that a double variation might also appear from that population." I answered calmly. "Tar, Tar, Ranitar?" Gaia rumbled out about my disguise. "It shouldn't be a problem unless we tussle with something at the elite level for no good reason." I said honestly.-
Other than that the only thing my pokemon had an issue with was the idea of me getting anywhere near Giratina. There was no amount of reassuring words that would fix that concern either as even I had to admit that it was a VERY dangerous thing no matter how you looked at it. The legendary could literally snore me to death or twitch in it's slumber turning me into red mist. It also didn't help that we all knew that at some point it was going to wake up and chose violence and there was no telling when exactly that was.-
"Now then Rune, Tank I need you two to go scout out the region for any double or greater variants, they should stand out. Bonus points if you somehow find a variant legendary or pseudo-legendary. I on the otherhand want to work on collecting some of the nearby plants that are extinct in our time that I saw previously." I said and my two fliers saluted in their own weird way before flying up and away. I also wasted no time looking around for those extinct plants to take some samples and hopefully seeds of.-
Over the next few days while I collected ingredients words had begun to spread of a great healer having coming to these lands from afar who was also a shaman with three powerful companions. One such rumor had reached the home of one of the four priestesses and the woman commanded her guardian shamans to find me. Of course I didn't learn of this until Rune and Tank came back with their report on the double and greater variant pokemon in the region. They had discovered exactly five of those and three variant pseudo-legendries.-
The five normal variants were an Ancient/Poison variant Ursaring, Ancient/Attack/Shiny variant Magikarp, Shiny/Royal variant Yanmega, Shiny/Dark variant Pidgey and finally a Royal/Ancient/Speed variant Pikachu. Obviously they found more than just this small amount in the entire region but those were species that couldn't be cloned and thus ignored. The three variant pseudo-legendries were of interest to me though. An Ancient variant Bagon, Ice variant Bagon(siblings apparently) and surprisingly enough a Royal/psychic variant Dratini. Getting a sample from each of these pokemon proved to be a challenge as each of them was either well protected by other members of it's species or flat-out resistant to parting with it's DNA.-
The Ursaring was surprisingly chill just handing over some blood. The Magikarp tried to eat me and the Yanmega was a runner. The Pidgey had a whole flock of it's species that didn't take kindly to the attempt. Finally was the Pikachu that used the oppurtunity to play tag where I had to chase it for a good thirty minutes before getting my sample. The pseudo-legendary Bagons flat-out refused me and things got less than friendly as a result. Hades and Vulcan got a good workout ripping their way through the pack of Salamence line pokemon to get me to the two Bagon that looked at me incredulously after I turned to leave after collecting some blood.-
Obviously we didn't kill our way through the pack of dragon types but they definitely got a good beating for their stubborn resistance. For the Dratini I ended up having to negotiate with the tribe because they had three elite Dragonite and violence was a VERY bad idea as a result.
