章節 232: Chapter 21 Meeting the Gary
Alex was currently flying towards the Oak laboratory on his newly evolved pidgeot. He could have teleported directly but decided against it as he needed some fresh air away from everything.
He was joined by the trio of Swablu still on his head, unaffected by air current, Pikachu who gripped his shoulder hard so as not to fly away and Dratini who had coiled itself around his neck.
Alex was thinking about what transpired this morning which led to his decision of going to the Pallet town.
---------------------------------------------------
Flashback ( in the morning)
Location: the Pokemon center, Solar Town
Alex woke up early and arrived at the restroom of Jim and Daisy to see how their condition were.
The parents of the duo were already there and from the voices he heard from inside the room, it seemed like they have woken up too.
The door was opened so he entered inside without hesitation.
Daisy and Jim saw Alex and asked,. " Alex, is Haunter alright?"
" Haunter? What is this about Haunter?"Jenny asked confused.
Then Daisy narrated what happened, " when we took our first task, we left to do the task with each other. Alex told that he won't follow.
On the way, we were attacked by two people. We fought and would have been completely crushed had it not for Haunter coming out to help.
He managed to subdue them but a Gengar and another ghost Pokemon came, and attacked. Haunter was able to fight them together. When they targeted my marill, haunter took the hit. He fainted afterwards."
The adults nodded understanding what they felt.
" Where did Haunter come out from?" Gray asked
" I asked the Haunter to hide in their shadow and appear only when they encounter problems they cannot take on." Alex clarified.
" So what are your plans now, Alex?" Mathew asked.
" How long are you going to stay with them?" Alex replied with a question of his own.
Mathew turned towards Gray who nodded at him regarding something," After this experience, both I and Gray came to the decision that the kids will return to Cerulean city and only after they are strong to a certain degree will we allow the kids to continue their journey. "
The kids tried to protest but Mathew ignored them and asked," So you have any problem with that, Alex?"
" Mnn.." Alex was thinking about something else but fortunately his pokemons did pay attention who repeated the question to him and he replied back," I think it is a good decision. The shadows are trying to set up a stronghold in Kanto but they are repulsed but they target young trainers to increase their ranks.
This situation is too dangerous for them to roam around, especially with their current strength. They even use advanced trainers to lead the kidnapping members in such a small town so you can understand just how dangerous things are now. "
Although it seemed like he was worried about their security and felt he cannot protect them properly in the future too, but there are some things Alex felt he had to do.
But the kids presence stopped his plans. But if they leave, he could continue to train himself seriously without worrying about anyones safety.
Learning that there might be future attempt to kidnap her daughter and her life may be in constant jeopardy, Daphne said without any hesistation with full determination to stay true to her words," I also agree. Daisy you will be heading back home right now this instant. Your pokemons can be sent back through the transponder to Cerulean city pokemon center. "
"But mom..." Daisy tried to protest but her mother's glare revealed she won't be hearing anything.
While Daisy gave up the protest, Jim wasn't willing to back down easily and even dragged Alex to the discussion.
" We... Umm... We cannot protect yourself well but Alex can protect us, can't he?" Jim tried to reason with them.
But even Alex stood on the opposite side said," A certain member of the shadows seem to like me a lot. And that person is pretty persistant, so I am targeted now. If you are welcome the me, not only I but you will be in danger. So until the shadows leave Kanto or your parents agree you are strong enough, don't travel around just yet. "
His words worked as dossing the flames of adventure in the kids worth water. After Alex joined the side of the parents, the only hope of the two aspiring trainers went down the drain.
Alex then bid farewell to them and left the Solar town.
-------------------------------+--------------------
After a few hours of flight, they can see the peripheral area of Pallet town. The reason it took them a few hours was because of how pidgeot had to move around the big town and cities so as not to violate the rules of airspace set by the Pokemon league.
This was really annoying but he had to do it. He can't always break the rules. Even Professor oak won't help him if he is caught Everytime without any special reasons.
As he neared pallet town,a Dragonite appeared in front of them stopping pidgeot from entering the pallet town air zone.
Dragonite watched the arriving flying Pokemon until his gaze landed on the trainer riding it. The one who ride the pidgeot was the trainer of her son.
She happily greeted them and wavd her hands at him.
" Hey, Dragonite. How are you doing?" Alex greeted," can we enter pallet town now?"
Dragonite gave them passage and flew beside them and replied," Drooo.." ( "I am fine. Tell me, how is Charmeleon doing?" )
Alex knows that no matter whether it is a human or Pokemon, a mother cares about her kids more than anything in the world. Her inquiry if Charmeleon wasn't much of a surprise to him.
He patiently answered her question,"Charmeleon is doing good. He had grown stronger in the past few months you last saw him. My visit this time is also related to him."
Dragonite was confused and asked,"Roo.." (" What do you mean, Alex?" )
" Charmeleon is strong. Stronger than most of his species. He is already at advanced peak due to the advanced grade Fire stone, Professor gave me.
He is already showing signs of evolution. He is getting more and more agitated, his energy is brimming to the full and his scales are turning harder.
All he needs is a good, long and taxing battle that can force out his power so he can evolve. He needs an opponent powerful than him but not too powerful than him. That pressure can make him gain his new powers. I wanted to ask Professor if there is a place he can get his long cherished battle.
Most places and people are either too weak to give him a good opponent or trainers are too powerful that he cannot battle hard. " Alex trailed on about how he wanted to let his Charmeleon fight and evolve him.
But Dragonite was worried about something, she inquired her child's trainer," Rooo...."(" He is still too young. Don't you think you are hurrying things with him. It may not do him good in the long run.") On hearing this, Alex felt a little sad which can be seen from his corner of the mouth lowering, and his brows raising.
Dragonite being an experienced pokemon knew the changes in the young trainer as soon as it's sign were evident and quickly revealed her fear,"Rooo.... Roo...aaaaa"(" I know you won't do something like this without a reason. I just want to know why you are doing it.
You are a trainer recognized by not only I and Samuel but also by Charizard. I am just worried for him. You should already know what will happen after he is a Charizard.")
Alex expression returned to normal after hearing her explanation. It wasn't that she doubted his ability, but wanted to know if it could be delayed as after his evolution, all the parental care of Charizard no matter how he refused to show off will be extinguished as his species does.
Charizard only care of his young till the Charmeleon stage in his territory. After that, if another Charizard invades his territory then he must mother submit and recognize his lordship over that area or he is killed for threatening him and his territory. Not even their own kids are immune to this.
Charmeleon was a proud Pokemon and there is no way he would submit after his evolution. This meant Dragonite chances of meeting her son was too low.
Although he understands her mind, Alex can't delay. " He was a member of the team before pidgeot here joined the team. Haunter was always his opponent ever since he joined the team. Now, he had become a Gengar and his powers are much greater than in his Haunter form.
The only chance to match him is evolving. If he fights Gengar and he certainly will, he will lose badly. That loss will only make him train hard. Harder than his body could handle. This will affect his future.
Charmeleon's pride won't let him accept a loss and when I say loss, mean ground breaking loss worth someone who was his rival and equal easily. No one can convince him otherwise, even if it is me.
So what I can do is help him grow stronger and take his inner belief into consideration and let him evolve as fast as possible. " Alex conveyed the reason behind the hasty evolution.
Dragonite was frustrated greatly on hearing it and was in remorse. When Alex told Charmeleon's nature, Charizard age came in her mind. She uttered to herself grumpily,"Drooo.." "( It is all that brute's fault. He is gonna get it." )
After that, they continued their path to Oak Laboratory backyard. When it was in vision, Alex could see Professor Oak, Blue, Daisy along with a beautiful brunette who may be Blue's wife Green. And in her arms was a young baby, Gary Oak.
His arrival with Dragonite made him the focus of everyone there.
As they landed, Samuel greeted him, " Good morning, Alex." And when he saw that Alex was looking curiously at his daughter in law, he introduced," Let me introduce to my daughter in law, Green Oak and my grandson, Gary Oak."
Alex met one of the rival of the chosen one, Ash Ketchum for the first time. Stay tuned.
