Pokémon: Pikachu Bonds

Team Rocket Headquarters...

A basement as large as a football field was filled with Team Rocket members and Pokémon. The originally spacious venue was occupied by trainers and Pokémon, and it looked unusually crowded...

However, not far from the crowd there was a mechanical cage, and in the cage was an unknown creature, emitting a dark aura, as if it was the source of the dark aura spreading in the air.

The materialized black air filled the entire square, with a suffocating pressure that shocked all creatures present...

The Rocket Team members and Pokémon present were shrouded in this strange aura and felt terrified. The negative energy called fear was constantly released from them.

These negative emotions quietly flowed into the mechanical cage and were absorbed by the unknown creature. Every time it absorbed a bit of negative emotions, its strength increased by one point...

An old man in a white coat looked at the humanoid creature with tubes inserted all over its body and smiled: "Sure enough~ As long as it keeps absorbing negative emotions, its strength will continue to increase without limit."

"Is this why you begged me to give the order for all members of Team Rocket to gather at this place?" asked Itaki.

"That's right~ This is the characteristic of the dark aura. As long as it devours negative emotions, it will continue to grow stronger. When I created this Pokémon, I perfectly integrated this characteristic into it." Dr. Nanbo said excitedly.

"That is to say, as long as it keeps absorbing negative energy, it will continue to become stronger." Banmu asked.

"That's right~ This is the God I created with all my painstaking efforts. Although it is not the most perfect, one day I will create a God that is superior to all Pokémon." Dr. Nanbo said excitedly.

"God?" Banmu raised his eyebrows.

"That's right~ It's God, the God who has the power to crush all Pokémon." Dr. Nanbo said excitedly.

"Oh? So, as long as we have Shadow Mewtwo, we can conquer the whole world?" Banmu asked with a little interest.

"Of course~ Although its current strength is relatively weak, it will one day become an existence that makes the entire Pokémon world tremble." Dr. Nanbo vowed.

"Oh~ That's really exciting. Does it have a name?" Banmu said lightly.

"Yes~ Its name is Shadow Mewtwo First Generation." Dr. Nanba replied, and then solemnly took out a black Poké Ball and handed it to Banmu: "Dear Boss Banmu, as long as you use this Poké Ball to capture it, it can become a powerful force under your command."

"This Poké Ball is a bit like the Master Ball controlled by the League." Banmu looked surprised.

"This is not a Master Ball. It's a Poké Ball that I forged using the Dark Mist. Although its appearance is similar to the Master Ball, it's not the same thing."

"I call it the Dark Ball, and only it can withstand the power of darkness. As for other Poké Balls, even the Master Ball cannot withstand the power of dark Pokémon. After all, this kind of dark power cannot be withstand by ordinary technology. Only the dark mist from the same source can withstand this power." Dr. Nanbo said excitedly.

"The Dark Ball... is interesting." Banmu took the Dark Ball with a smile, then took out the Poké Ball and released the Great Needle.

"Buzz~"

The white light dissipated, and a huge Beedrill appeared in the air. It was about 3 meters tall and its tail had purple stripes instead of black stripes. At the same time, when it appeared, it exuded a terrifying aura.

The humanoid creature that was originally imprisoned in the mechanical cage opened his eyes and looked at the nearby Beedrill with a cruel face, as if he wanted to tear the other to pieces cruelly.

"Nanbo, open the prison door. I want to test the opponent's strength." Banmu said calmly.

"I understand~" Dr. Nanbo took out a remote control and pressed the switch, and the cell door holding the dark creatures opened.

The dark creature smiled when it saw the opened cage and the tubes falling from its body, then walked out of the cage step by step. When it took the last step, its entire body was shrouded in dark mist.

When the dark mist dissipated, its shape changed.

Its original height was only about 2.3m, but now it has changed its shape and is about 3.5m tall. It has black skin and conspicuous dark gold texture. A dark gold object grows on each of its shoulders, and its ears and the top of its tail are also dark gold.

"You can control mega evolution freely without any external force." Banmu showed a surprised look.

You should know that most Pokémon that can mega evolve need external forces to evolve, and only a few Pokémon do not need it.

"Not only can it freely control mega evolution, but it also possesses some special moves," Dr. Nanbo answered.

"By the way, Boss Banmu, you must give it your all in the next battle. I need to collect data on the opponent's mega evolution, so as to analyze its properties and characteristics." Dr. Nanbo suddenly remembered something and added hurriedly.

Banmu nodded after hearing this, and then pressed the Mega Evolution Stone on his right hand: "Old friend, show us all your strength!"

"Buzz~" The moment Beedrill responded to Itsuki, the evolution key in Itsuki's hand and the mega evolution stone on Beedrill's neck emitted dazzling light at the same time.

The moment the two lights connected together, the big needle blade's whole body emanated the light of evolution, and as the light of evolution spread, its body shape changed.

After the light faded, the new form of Beedrill appeared in front of everyone. The three parts of the Super Beedrill's body were no longer directly connected, but were connected by a black part. The antennae on its head became shorter and extended a long way behind its head. Its tail became conical, with two conical grooves in front. The tail pointed forward as a whole, and the poison needle at the end was also longer. The poison needles on both hands grew parts similar to lance guards, and the feet also became double needles with black and yellow stripes.

Shadow Mewtwo was even more excited when he saw the new form of Beedrill. The desire to tear it apart became stronger and stronger. Then he bent his legs slightly and rushed towards Beedrill like a beast...

"Beedrill uses Cross Shears!"

"Buzz~" Beedrill waved its two needles and attacked the oncoming Shadow Mewtwo with lightning speed.

.........

Xiaozhi and his group, who were heading for the next gym in the Hoenn region, came to a big mountain...

"We are finally here. As long as we cross that mountain, we can reach the next town. There is a ship at the port of that town that can reach the Fengyuan area." Xiaogang said holding the guide book.

"Huh? We still have to climb mountains. We have been climbing mountains every day for the past week. Now my legs can't help but tremble when I see mountains." Xiaoxia frowned.

"It's okay~ Just think of it as exercise. As long as we cross this mountain and reach the next town, we can reach the Hoenn region. Then you might be able to capture a new type of water Pokémon." Xiaozhi said excitedly.

"Oh~ I really can't do anything about you." Xiaoxia said helplessly.

Although Misty looks like she can't do anything to you, she is actually very excited inside. After all, there are several kinds of Pokémon in the Hoenn region that Misty has always wanted to capture.

"But there's a crossroads here. Xiaogang, which way should we go?" Xiaozhi asked, pointing at the crossroads in front of them.

"Let me see..." Xiao Gang flipped through the guide book and said, "You can get over this mountain no matter which road you take. If you go left, it's an ordinary mountain road, and if you go right, you will pass through a mysterious ice cave."

"The mysterious ice cave? Could it be that the legendary Pokémon Articuno lives in it?" Xiaoxia said half-jokingly.

"I don't know whether there is Articuno or not, but according to rumors, someone once encountered the Snowman Snorlax in the Ice Cave." Xiaogang answered while reading the guide book.

"Snowman Snorlax?"*2, Ash and Misty asked in confusion at the same time.

"That's right~ According to rumors, as long as you build a snowman in the mysterious ice cave and make the snowman look exactly like Snorlax, the snowman will turn into Snowman Snorlax that night." Xiaogang explained.
