================================================================================

It's been 6 months since my rebith and in that time my psychic and aura abilities have been growing at a constant rate.

For aura I desided to rip off Naruto using the leaf sticking exercise, the tree walking exersise and finally managing the water walking exersise last week to increase my aura control and strength. I'm looking foreward to weather I can use elemental attacks in the future.

For psychic I desided to grab a large bolder and suspend it above my head for an hour while training my body when crushing to boulder into smaller parts and sperating the debris based on size to increase bith my strength and control. I can now communicate with Metagross from anywhere in Pallet and I can teleport quite far I had an accident last month where I teleported to Viridian before realising where I was and teleporting back home.

A few months ago I wrote a paper with the help of metagross theorising the existance of espeon and umbreon and asking Delia to pass in to professor Oak that lead to me having an awkward meeting with the man.

Flashback Starts

Im currently in the kitchen on the second floor of my home its been 2 months since I asked Delia to submit my thesis on the existance of espeon and umbreon to him and I've come to accept that nothing is going to come of it. He probably hasn't got round to reading it. I mean he is a world famous Professor he probably has a lot on his plate. I think to myself as I hear a knock on my door.

Reaching out with my telepathy I check who's at the door only to find a mind that was protected by a rather strong Alakazam. Hesetantly I reach out with a phychic handshake and the Alakazam informs he that it's here with Professor oak. "come on in" I yell down "take a seat in the living room I'll be down shortly" I say as I make 2 cups of tea. 

"Renata be a dear a summon the weakest espeon and umbreon that I have in the PC between levels 20-30"

"Sure thing host I'll deposit both pokemon on the second floor when you go downstairs their regular pokeballs will be in your bedroom"

"Thank you Renata"

Going down stairs I give the professor a cup "Thank you young man. I'm looking for someone named Micheal Wells is he here?"

"I'm Micheal" (Micheal)

"I see. young man next time theres someone at your door please check who it is before letting them in, I'm glad you feel safe in Pallet Town but theres no need to take unnecessary risks" (Prof Oak)

"I did Professor I had a rather polite conversation with the Alacazam that protects your mind" I respond letting my eyes flash pink 

"Huh my Alakazam did report to me that he had a psychic contact from inside the building but he seemed to be under the assumption that the psychic that he talked to was a pokemon"

"That might be an issue on my part you see I was taught my psychic abilities by a Metagross, thats a psychic steel type not native to this region, and I've never encountered another human with psychic abilities before so I'm not exactly sure what the modus operandi is for human to human psychic interaction."

"You really learn something new everyday" said the Professor thoughtfully"would it be possible for me to meet the Metagross who trained you?"

"Sure it's down in the basement right now if you want to meet it"

"I would love to young man however why are you adressing it as an it, it's a living being not an item" said Professor Oak slightly irritated

"Ah you might have misunderstood something professor, Metagross as a species are genderless so they usually adress them as it otherwise they tell you off"

"I'm sorry for jumping to concusions young man its just with pokemon abuse numbers rising especially in young trainers it doesn't hurt to clarify"

"no harm no foul professor I'm sure metagross will like to meet you" I said leading them down into the basement.

"Greetings Professor Oak I've heard great things about you"(Metagross)

"Hello Metagross it is a pleasure to meet you"(Prof Oak)

"Why have you come to see me"

"I'll be honest I've never actually met one of your species in person before so I was exited to meet one"

"Hmmm how peculiar your Alakazam has quite a large amount of psychic energy but not very good control. why is that?"

"What do you mean not very good control? He's rather strong even for a member of his species if I do say so myself."

"Ahh you've misunderstood something my good sir. I'm not talking about power I'm talking about control for example, your Alakazam might be able to teleport you across region's this is due to his high psychic power however he wouldn't be able to pick a flower using telekinisis without damaging the plant."

"Hmmm I see where your coming from he does struggle to take care of Gray and Daisy as he is scared of hurting them. Though how could this situation be remedied?"

"There are a number of ways for fine control to be trained for example collect a small quantity of different types of sand, mix them together then give him time to seperate them back into piles where the grains of sand are all the same time. Simply make him to that and his control will be good enough for him to look after teh hatchlings without worrying about damaging them."

"Huh that does sound good in theory but how do you know it works in practise?"

"Look at young Micheal next to you he has 87.5% less power than your Alakazam and he can teleport to Viridian City and back in quick succession without breaking a sweat, is this enough proof that but training plan will work"

Professor Oak looking suprised at Micheal "that is enough physical proof that the training regiment works do you mind if I study it, I'll teach a few young Psychic types the sand training method and record the increase in strength over time?"

"Negative it would be detramental for a young psychic type to learn this spicific type of training at a young age as they will foolishly beguin to believe that pure technique can over come power as this type of training is purely control. If your training a youngling from scratch you should guve them a boulder x1.25 their mass and get them to hift it above their height, they should do this untill they have the strength to telekinteicly crush the boulder into smaller particles roughly the same size then they should seperate the particles into piles of identical size. This will train their psychic strength alongside their control. But I do give you permission to use this training regiment to conduct an experiment as long as I can see the empirical evidence aswell as read the research paper before you publish it."

"Good I'll Get atarted in it immediatly. Alakazam take us back to the lab."

Alakazam facepalms and points at the research papers in his hands and back to me. 

"Oh right. Young Micheal I came here today to talk to you about your sponsership with Oak's Labs. As you know all trainers that have a residency in Pallet town are eligible to have sponsorship should they apply for it. Now when you did the Trainer Exam you did the sponsorship exam as you said you wanted to apply for it on the appication form, however reading the research paper Delia handed to me I can see that there is no chance of you failing it and under most circumstances you will most probably be elegible for one of the 3 starters next year when you're leaving for your journey. Therefore I would like to offer you the opertunity to be a research assistant for the project that I will be conducting to prove the existence of this umbreon and espeon. Should the project be successful I will give you the position of Assistant Professor of the Kanto Region, there are already a handful of people who have this title attached to their resume's what it means is that you have made a significant contribution to the world."

"Umm slight problem there Professor. You see when you didn't get back to me after a month I thought that there wasn't enough information in the thesis that I sent you so, I got my hands on a couple of eevees and trained them. I have all the data and videos pertaining to their training and subsequent evolutions without any stones"

"young man are you telling me in the space of a month you trained 2 newly caught pokemon to evolve into unknown evolutions while collecting the data aswell as recording the evolutions"

"yes sir"

"well let's see them then"

"Espeon do you mind bringing Umbreon and yourself down to the basement the Professor wants to see you"

After a few minutes of polite small talk with the Professor espeon opened the door to the basement and walked in with umbreon.

After 15 minutes of the professor gushing about them he said

"Micheal can I have a copy of your research and can I take these two little ones back to the lab to get them scanned? I'm not disparaging the quality of your work its just that my lab is better equipped with machines."

"Calm down professor these two didn't want to be battling pokemon they were happy to help with an experiment of mine aslong as I promised them a relaxing and safe life. So as long as you can promise them that the tests will not be dangerous they would be happy to go with you" 

"I see how about it you 2 would you be comfortable coming to the lab and getting your data inputted into the system"

Espeon and Umbreon seemed to take a minute to consider it before ultimately nodding desiding to go with the nice old man

"give me a minute professor to go and get you their balls" I said running upsairs to get the collected data and pokeballs.

Once I handed the pokeballs and data to the professor he said to me "come tomy lab when you get your Trainer License and ill upgrade it to an Assistant Professor of the Kanto License."

"will do professor. Have a good day" I said as I saw him out.

Flashback ends

 I'm currently making my way to Delia's with the letter that has the results from my Trainer Exam as she was adamant that I should open it with Her and Ash.

I knoch on the door and Ash opens "big bro" he exclaims "are you here for lunch today mom said were having pidgey wings and chips for lunch" 

"Sure where's your mom I need to say hi"

"moms in the kitchen cooking" he said running off.

After making my way to the kitchen I left the letter on the counter and went to play with Ash.

About an hour later after Delia had finished cooking and we had all eaten I handed Delia the letter and asked her to open it. 

"Okay Mikey lets see what you got. But no matter what you got don't feel down remember in 6 months with this license you will still be a trainer and get to go out on an adventure"(Delia)

"Yes yes just open the letter already"

"Okay okay drum roll please" she says as Ash starts playing a drum roll on the table "you got a 99.5%!!!"

"Wow big bro that really high"(Ash)

"Mikey I'm so proud of you, I was so worried when I met you a young kid living alone no family left. I was so worried you'd hurt yourself or starve." said Delia teary eyed

"Aunt Delia calm down without you to keep me fed and Ash to keep me grounded I probably wouldn't have made it this far"(Micheal)

2 hours later after I left i desided to make my way to the Oak's Lab to get my license upgraded to an Assistant Professor of the Kanto license.
