Chapter 2

- Route 1, Kanto Region.

A thud could be heard throughout the forest. At the place where the sound originated from, you could see a short androgynous person that had long blue-silver hair. This person wore black pants held up by a leather belt and tucked into knee high leather boots, a black long sleeved shirt over a grey t-shirt with a long black coat over the shirt that reached the back of his knees. This person was Nathan Breeze that had currently just arrived into his new world while in a new body.

- Third person POV.

"Ouch...." I couldnt help but say out loud as I landed roughly on the ground. I shook my head as I sat on the ground to get my bearings straight before finally standing up. Looking around, I could see that I had arrived inside the forest of route 1 not far from Pallet town, which coincidentally was my first stop in this new world of mine before starting my own journey.

I noticed that next to me on the ground were two bags, one that looked like a canvas dufflebag like those from world war two, and another that had the shape of a guitar case. I decided to search through the bags to see the starting pack that I got.

I started with checking if the instrument bag worked first, which I tested by summoning a violin. Having seen that it worked, I put back the violin before my attention went to the duffle bag. Opening the bag I could see a lot of different dossier which I assumed was all the research data that I had asked for. Along with that I could see multiple potions, pokeballs and camping gear. However, what caught my attention was the crystal ball that hung from a silver chain as well as the different crystals that seemed to shine next to it. It was clearly a keystone for mega-evolution as well as multiple mega stones. I hit the jackpot. I quickly put the necklace around my neck and started to pack my bags.

After packing up my stuff I slung the dufflebag over my left shoulder before doing the same with the other case. After picking up my bags I started to traverse the forest while searching for the river that I knew was in this forest as it was shown in the episode when Ash stole Mistys bike. It didnt take long to find it. I put down my bags and walked towards the riverbank to have a look at myself seeing as I clearly was shorter than my usual 1.96m in height. If I had to guess, I was probably around 1.20m now which really hurt my pride as a man.

I arrived at the edge of the water before looking into the water only to see a person that I had not expected to see. Yellow eyes, blue-silver hair that went to my lower back and androgynous features, yep, I was looking at the face of Rimuru tempest.

Having calmed down from the initial shock I remembered what the old man had said before I left that office.

"Dont be shocked huh.... DAMNIT, GIVE ME A WARNING NEXT TIME." I yelled out to no one. My shout causing multiple Pidgeys to fly away from my area. I just sighed and sat down in the clearing.

"Sigh... I guess first things first I should introduce myself to my new partners." I said as I pulled out three pokeballs. One was white with a red stripe, the next was blue with two red stripes and the last was completely red with two indentations on each sides with black stripes. It was a premier ball, great ball and a cherish ball. I tossed all three at the same time causing them to open while releasing the familiar light as three creatures now stood in front of me.

The first was a creature with a height of 90cm. It was brown, covered in fur and had a snout. It was a Swinub. It seemed to special considering that it was more than twice the size of a normal Swinub.

The next one to appear was a small, rabbit-like Pokémon with large, pointed ears which form the letter V. It has large, blue eyes and a round, cream-colored head, which is comparatively large compared to its small, cream body, while the tops of its ears, crest, and extremities are all orange. Its bulbous arms and legs are rounded to make a sort of "cuff" before ending with small, three-fingered hands and two-toed feet. It has two pointed teeth that can be seen on its upper jaw. It also has two cream winglike tails, which seems to allow it to fly. It had a height of 1.04m. It was a Victini.

Finally came a small, blue, canine Pokémon. It has a black torso and legs, a blue tail, and a yellow collar. It has rounded bumps on the backs of its forepaws. It has a black "mask" and red eyes as well as two black appendages hanging on each side of its head. It stands on its toes instead of its entire foot. It stood at a height of 1.3m. It was a Riolu.

The three pokemon looked around curiously before finally sttling their eyes on me.

"Hey you three. My name is... Rimuru Tempest, and I will be your trainer from today onwards. I hope to become great friends with you all as we travel and become stronger together. What do you say?" I introduced myself while putting my hand forward.

The three looked at eachother before all three nodded at eachother and jumped into my arms causing me to fall backwards while we all laughed together.

"Alright alright, hahaha." I laughed as the three finally got off me so that I could sit upright again.

"Right now the plan is to meet a professor that lives nearby to stay there for a while while we get your training started. Is that alright with you guys?" I asked them which resulted in a cry of agreement from all three.

"Do you guys want to walk with me or stay in the pokeballs? I know some like to stay out."

"Tini tini." Victini said as he flew around me, making me laugh a bit at the antics of the pokemon.

"Rio." Riolu said as He just crossed his arms while smiling.

However Swinub walked towards my pokeballs and sent himself back inside, answering my question with his actions.

"Alright then, Victini, Riolu, we will set out right away since its not far from here so make sure to stick close alright?" I asked causing them to nod at me in confirmation.

I tossed bot bags onto my left shoulder before Victini came and sat on my right before we started to walk.

As we walked, I could see the curiousity in the eyes of my two pokemon causing me to smile before once again focusing on the road before me.

A couple hours passed before we reached the outskirts of Pallet town. It was a small town with a few houses, but the most notable building was the professors lab that could be seen from the other side of the town.

We started to walk through the town while we saw quite a few people on the little road through town. They all looked curious at the sight of my two companions, but we just smiled and nodded at them in greeting before we continued.

It wasnt long before we reached the lab. It was situated on a little hill with a path to the door. It was a large white building with a dome shaped roof and a large field in the back that could be seen from the front.

We walked up to the door and rung the door bell.

"A moment please!" We could hear from the inside. Not long after the door opened to reveal an old man in his fifties with greyish hair, a red buttoned shirt, khaki pants and brown shoes as well as a lab coat. This was Professor Samuel Oak.

"Yes yes, hello there. What can I help you with you-" Before he could continue his question, he noticed my pokemon and quickly started to examine them while mumbling to himself. I just coughed to get his attention.

"Ah yes sorry about that, its the first time I see these pokemon so I got caught up in studying them. Sorry for not introducing myself, I am Samuel Oak or as people call me Professor Oak. And you are?" He spoke.

"My name is Rimuru Tempest. I came here because I have been researching different things for a long while and decided to take my research to you as you are the leading figure in the researcher community." I spoke.

"Resear- really? Its rare to see someone so young researching."

"Dont let my height fool you professor, I am currently sixteen years old."

"Oh my. I apologize if I offended you."

"No need, I know it can be misleading." I said with a downcast expression.

"Well, lets go inside. You must have travelled far to get here." He said as he guided me inside along my two pokemon.

The inside looked like a typical lab with machines standing everywhere and a lot of papers laying around.

"I hope you dont mind if I let my pokemon outside to look around."

"No not at all young Tempest." He said before I took Swinubs pokeball and let him out.

"Hey you three." I said to get their attention.

"You can run around and have a look, but dont disturb any other pokemon that might be here as well as come back before nighttime." I said. They all cried in agreement before all three ran outside to explore the area.

"Now then, why dont we sit down and have a talk." Oak offered to which I accepted. We sat down in a little lounge area with a couple of couches with a coffee table between us.

"Tea?" Oak asked to which I accepted with gratitude. While he left to get the tea, I looked through the research papers to make sure that there was nothing that could indicate that I wasnt the one who wrote them. Seeing nothing I put them onto the table before Oak came back with two mugs and put them before us as he sat down himself.

"Oh? Are these your notes?" He asked.

"Yes professor. These are my notes on multiple areas such as what I like to call Mega evolution, Dynamax, fairy type pokemon and finally a couple of undiscovered species that I found during my travels." I told the professor, but before I even finished speaking he was already reading them.

"Incredible, simply incredible. How were you able to discover all of this?"

"Mega evolution is something I discovered in Kalos. It happened by accident as I had borrowed a Gyarados from a friend. We came in contact with what I call a keystone, which is the gem that I have on my necklace, and another stone which I named Gyaradosite. I found multiple other stones as I travelled and found out that they all belonged to different pokemon."

"Marvelous."

"Dynamax came from Galar. I happened to see a Snorlax that became the height of some of the tallest buildings here in Kanto and started to look into the phenomenon."

"Next is fairy types. I found out about it while in Kalos as well. Pokemon such as Jigglypuff for example have a fairy typing. They also seem to be another nemesis to dragon types as well."

"As for the new species, they were some pokemon that I saw during my travels. We are not talking about regional variants such as those from Alola, but genuine pokemon that havent been registered."

"This is simply.... incredible. I have never even considered these concepts to exist, but here is the proof..... Hey Rimuru, you dont mind if I call you Rimuru do you?"

"Not at all professor."

"Well Rimuru, how long do you plan to stay here in Pallet?"

"Dont know yet. I have to find a campingsite before I could gi-"

"Nonsense. If you need a place to stay, then stay here. Theres only me and my two grandchildren anyways so there wouldnt be a problem."

"Are you sure professor? We could just camp in the woods."

"Not at all. Here you could have a room and food while I make sure to register you into the researcher association for all of your contributions."

"In that case I accept, but I will cook. Thats the least I could do."

"You have yourself a deal." He said as we shook hands.
