Chương 15: Chapter 15: A New Member

"(How did you enjoy the show?)" Gardevoir walked towards William, who had a scary face on him.

"Fi. Was it your idea? You do know that Alex has shown her face as a Team Rocket member right?" William's voice was cold, with a bit of rage in it.

"No... it was my idea. I wanted to know if people remember me from the incident." Alex explained as she putted on a t-shirt and jeans.

"..." William fell into silence.

"Sigh... Results?"

"I think some do remember me, but that can be dealt with easily."

"How?"

"The Police don't have enough evidence, plus I just appeared once, if I don't show up against the police, then they can never charge me."

"...alright, but why would you risk it?"

"After thinking for a while, that amount of clothing is indeed more fishy that I could be, so I needed to see if I can still switch."

"(She didn't mention one point, she wanted to blend in the group.)"

"..." "..."

William and Alex went into silence as Gardevoir pointed out.

"Ok, I see now, sorry for the earlier attitude." William calmed down a bit after a deep breath.

"(Its fine.)" Gardevoir shook her head.

"That solves everything." Alex lowered her head a bit, and sighed.

—————

After a while, they ended back at the pokemon center.

"So? What's your plan? I'm assuming you need a mask as well?" William pointed at his face.

"Yeah. I already have one though." Alex replied as she stood up from the chair. "My package arrived. There's something for you as well."

As she said that, she went towards the front desk. After five minutes or so, she came back with a box.

"What's in there?" William peeked over as Alex was opening the box.

In the box was two pokeballs. Alex picked up one of them and handed over the other to William.

"Here, take this, I think it'll be a good partner for you."

"Thanks."

Without further instructions, William just letted the pokemon in it out.

"Pory!"

The pokemon was a pokemon that's made up of geometric shapes, a truly uncommon and strange pokemon.

"Porygon?" William knelt down on one knee, staring straight into its eyes, whom was staring right back with a pair of curious filled eyes.

"Garde." Gardevoir also knelt down, but her hands were poking the new accompany that they have.

"Pory!"

Suddenly, a flash of blue energy swept across Porygon, and digits of 0s and 1s replaced its whole body. Gardevoir, who was poking the Porygon had her entire hand go right through Porygon.

"Porygon, a pokemon made completely out of programming code. This Porygon was my final project before I graduated from University." Alex said with a bit of proudness in her voice. "I think it will suit you."

"Wow, you already graduated from university?" William asked shockingly.

"(This man here haven't even handed in his final essay.)" Gardevoir didn't hesitate before telling the truth. "(Just compare yourself...)" and mock William.

"Fi, shut up." William rolled his eyes, but then refocused on the Porygon in front of him.

"Porygon, what's your dream?"

"Pory!"

"(It said, it wanted to be as strong as Garchomp.)" Gardevoir instantly translated its meaning.

"Garchomp?" William turned over to Alex.

"Probably Cynthia's Garchomp. It could surf the internet on its own, and Cynthia had a battle show earlier this week." Alex answered William.

"I see, then." William turned his head back towards Porygon. "How about I help you achieve that dream? But in return, you'll have to work hard and you'll have to help me out when I need you."

"Pory!"

A flash of blue light swept across Porygon, resulting in it materialising. Without much hesitation, it thrusted its head at William's fingers softly.

"Nice. I can see that it likes you."

"How old is it?"

"Merely 8 months old. But it had a learning program in it so you don't need to worry about it being unable to learn." Alex shrugged. "Its nice right?"

"Yeah. Although I'm also interested in how programming codes turn into a biological form..."

"That you'd probably have to ask the creator of the web. But now that your done, can you do me a favour?" Alex started smiling after saying that.

"A favour?"

"Yeah. A rematch between us."

As Alex said that, her entire aura changed, giving off a serious and confident vibe.

"With Gengar again?" William raised an eye, not even slightly effected by her aura.

"No, this time, I brought my strongest pokemon here."

Alex picked up the remaining pokeball in the box, she then pointed it at William.

"Oh? Fi, what do you say?"

William looked towards Gardevoir, with amusement in his face.

"(You don't seem like you want to turn down the fight. I guess I have no other choice. But first, let's find a proper place.)"

Gardevoir looked around, signalling the environment. (Pokemon Center)

"Alright. Let's meet up at the Forest leading off to Hutber Port after 30 minutes, during this time, we can discuss our strategies with our pokemons without others knowing."

Knowing how strategy would be an important aspect in the battle, Alex suggested so, to which William agreed upon.

"So, see you later."

William left the building with Gardevoir.
