Ralts (Before evolving to Kirlia) Pov
'I am different'
She looked at her hair.
'I am an anomaly'
She looked at other Ralts' hair.
'Why? Why is it me? Am I that Hideous?'
She wept every night as the rejection of her kind grew.
Never once did she blame others for her misfortune. There isn't any pokemon who accepted her. She tried to communicate with the other Ralts or even Kirlia. They just glance at her in disgust and walk away. So she does the only thing that makes pokemon respected. Training, training, and training.
She started by using psychic to move inanimate objects, from small to large. First she tried to force a pebble to move. It wasn't as easy as it sounds. It's like trying to will a flow of water and surround the pebble. Then influence it to fight against gravity. A challenging task as it defies the law of physics. As you need a force equivalent to another force to counter each other.
Days turn to weeks. She succeeded in moving the pebble, she moved on to heavier things. She learned other applications of psychic power like teleportation.
2 months later, she came back to meet her kind again. She wanted to show what she achieved after a torturous training. Smile wasn't what that greets her, rather they show her the same disgusted looks and a hint of… fear.
' How can she improve that fast? It doesn't make sense'
They started to harass her. From a small shove, to an outright beat down. She was depressed. Her heart was broken. Her love for her kind diminishes as time goes on. With a hardened resolve, she promised to be stronger and find others who accepted her. So she fought back. The aftermath was a sight to see. A lonely Ralts standing in a pile of fainted Ralts, and Kirlias.
The last enemy looks at her with unconcealed hatred, she shouted,
" YOU MONSTER! How are you this strong?! This doesn't make sense!"
Ralts looks back with a sneer on her small face.
" I'm not just like the rest of you, I'm stronger, I'm smarter, I'm better, I'M BETTER!"
(Anyone recognized the reference?)
At that moment, bright light started to emit from her body. She felt… amazing.
"Yes, this feeling, this is power."
Her body starts to transform. She got taller, her hair grew longer, her horn grew bigger on each side of her head resembling hair ties. She opened her eyes and recognized new intruders. A group of Gardevoirs and Gallades looking back at her. They banished her out of the village. So she went out, seeking more power. She wished to be able to live without being oppressed, so she trained again.
But one day, when she messed up by picking a fight with a flock of Spearows, A child saved her. A human child with white hair ran up to her with a… worried look? What is that? Sadness? Fear? Then he grabbed a potion out of nowhere. Even she doesn't feel a disturbance from the psychic energy around her.
'What is he trying to do? Enslave me? Like those "trainers" who tried to capture her?'
She watches him heal her with a wary look. But he never did catch her. She instinctively teleported out of there and observed him again. He looks sad, but she still can't trust him. As he walked around the forest again, he encountered another pokemon.
'Why is that pokemon blue? I remember them being pink colored pokemon. Is it the same with me?'
He watches him save the pokemon by running endlessly out of the forest. She knew he hit his limit but his legs refused to bend.
"This human is weird, I need to see more"
She watches him afar, but she can't find him. She tried to sneak in but she can't teleport to the town as a group of strong pokemon warn her with their presence. She was shocked to find them and felt powerless for the second time. She promised to grow stronger than them as she escaped back to the forest. The group of pokemon snorted and went back to relax near a research facility.
(You guys of course know who they belong to)
She trained herself more and prayed that he would come out to the forest again tomorrow.
He didn't. She grew impatient. She tried to clear her mind by training again, but it didn't work. Causing a massacre of Spearow didn't work either. But when she's about to snap, he came.
'He came! Oh he came here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here! He is here!'
A weird darkness could be seen swirling in her eyes. She didn't know why but she wanted to see him again. But there was something else. The blob he saved came with him. It was carried in his arm. Certain feelings grew in her heart. Jealousy… Envy… Anger.
' It should've been me! How dare you!'
When he started to walk back home, she raised her arm in an attempt to kill Ditto.
' No, he will be sad if that blob died. I don't want him to be sad."
She stopped channeling psychic energy and lowered her hand.
' Just wait, Eddy, you will be mine soon.'
She spoke in her mind as she memorized the name written on his lab coat.
