"Could you stop saying Hawaii?"
"Who said that?" I immediately stand up and observe how a figure "glup" emerges from the lake. I swallow my saliva as I observe that mystery being.
"Calm I do not want to peel" he says is mysterious to be.
I watch him carefully, as he walks in my direction. with a slow, but firm step, he has a smile that seems somewhat idiotic, but peaceful, on his head there is a kind of shell and he has a white and red bib and he is pink with his cream-colored stomach.
"I introduce myself, my name is Slowking and I am the guardian of this place" he says while he bows.
"Nice to meet you, Slowking" I tell him as he smiled and bowed my head slightly.
"Tell me what brings you here?" I comment to the creature as I prepare to fly off in case of any complications.
He watches me closely as he says "I heard from Vaporeon that there was a Victini in this area, so I hurried to meet him"
"It seems that I was discovered" I say while I scratch the back of my neck smiling
"However, well since we are here, tell me the reason for your visit" I say while I keep thinking. Am I a Victini, what kind of rare Pokémon is it for the guardian to come looking for?
As I remember in the anime Slowking is a fairly rare, powerful and intelligent Pokémon, it made it rain when it yawned
"It just seemed strange to me that someone like you were in this place, normally you don't leave Liberty Garden, did you lose your way? From what I hear, you are looking for a Hawaii "the creature tells me, giving a small yawn.
Shit, how much do I listen? I should think silently, Liberty Garden, maybe it will be where my species lives.
"If something like that, I don't know this place much, could you tell me where the city or town is? Once I arrive I will know how to orient myself "
"Are you looking for a city of humans?" he asks me surprised
"I do not intend to interact much with them" I reply quickly "he just wants to check the location and some information on their history"
"His story about him" he says while putting his hand or paw on his chin
"I see for sure it has to do with the mission of the almighty, not long ago I felt their presence in this area" he says while nodding over and over again.
Who the hell is the all powerful? What mission is he talking about? It will have something to do with my becoming a Pokémon.
"Very good" he says while interrupting my thoughts.
"We are in the deepest part of the pinwheel forest, to the southwest of which is Nuvema town, to the north is Nacrene city where you can find a Pokémon gym"
"Mmm, I see" I say nodding my head over and over again
"Someone like you should stay away from humans" he tells me with a somewhat worried voice.
"Howevwr, if it is a mission that is going to be done, I wish your luck on your way" he turns his back on me and dives into the lake
"Wait" it seems that I cannot hear
"What a strange I find" I got a lot of information apparently I am a Victini and from what I hear a somewhat strange species, I wonder where this Liberty city as I remember was near San Andreas, it went so quickly, there are many things to ask.
"Well, I already have a fixed course, first this nacrene city" they have a gym, there must be a lot of trainers, it is best to avoid them for the moment until I find out a little more about my species.
"Only Nuvema town remains," let's see how humans are in this world, I just hope I don't find evil people like Team Roket, let's look for information about me and a map.
I start to float and head towards Nuvema town, hoping to find answers.
While I fly over the forest I observe various types of creatures "so am I really in another world and I became a Pokémon" observing the creatures I realize how little I know about this world.
I see creatures very similar to some animals such as a frog, a worm, a kind of dog "I have no idea what kind of Pokémon they are, what season will I be in? "As I recall, the more seasons the more deformed the creatures.
As I continue to think about how lucky. I am to be a cute Pokémon and not some kinds of garbage bag like the one I saw for a moment, a flock of pigeons approaches me.
Flying by my side the head pigeon that is a little bigger than the others and of a darker gray color than its companions look at me and squawks "pid, pid, pid"
I just nod my head, reply "thank you too" as I am flygin away in another direction.
I do not know what he said, but, I understood the essence of the message. a very primitive kind of communication, if I had to translate it would be something like "beware, danger, up" a kind of warning that it is not safe to fly in this area.
It is very strange, with the forest guardian the conversation was more fluid, is it because we are both psychic? Or that particular Pokémon wasn't very smart.
Heeding the warning of my feathered friend. I lower my height a little and begin to fly below the height of the trees, it is slower, but I cannot risk getting into a fight, I only know the movement of flying I do not know if I will any other.
After a couple of minutes, dodging trees I find a river "great, I'm going to take the opportunity to rest a while" looking for a place to settle in the distance I see a kind of yellow duck.
I approach the yellow duck, it looks like one of those toys for the bathtub, its yellow plumage and three black feathers protrude from its head, its small wings look like legs which it uses to support its head.
"Psyd, psyd, psyd, psyd," the duck screeches as it runs in circles around a tree.
"It's a Psyduck!" I exclaim with joy, it is one of the few Pokémon that I recognize in this strange forest.
In the series it was quite funny. He always went out at the least inconvenient moments. Misty would do anything to get hit on the head, only then would she bring out all the hidden power of him.
The duck is realizing my presence turns to see me and says, "psyd, psyd" while waving its wing over and over again pointing to a tree.
I look at the tree that the duck is pointing to and I realize that it has several fruits that are like a kind of pink heart and at the base there are two green leaves.
"Do you want that pink fruit?" I ask the duck.
"Psyd, psyd, psyd, psyd" he answers me, nodding his head several times.
Yes, well, why not, I think as I float up to the tree to collect one of its fruits. As the duck continues to yell "psyd, psyd, psyd"
Taking the fruit I observe it carefully, a strange sweet smell comes to me, it seems that this fruit is very sweet, but for some strange reason I feel like eating it.
He throws the fruit at the duck, but does not catch it and hits him on the head.
The duck stares at the fruit lying on the ground for a few seconds, as if it doesn't understand what just happened.
Immediately after as if noticing something, he picks up the fruit quickly while saying "psyd, psyd"
The duck takes a few dissecting steps towards the river, but trips and crushes the fruit with its stomach.
After a few seconds on the ground the duck, gets up and sees his entire belly covered in pink juice, he turns to see me with tears in his eyes as he shouts "psyd, psyd, psyd"
"Very good, okay" I say to the duck as I sigh and take another fruit from the tree.
"Why do you want that fruit so much anyway? It smells very sweet, but I don't think it tastes tasty "I ask the duck as he lands on the ground, this time giving him the fruit in his hand.
The duck looks at the pink fruit as he says "psyd, psyd, psyd, psyd" and takes it from my hand.
"I see, now I understand" I comment to the duck as I nod my head.
Apparently that pink fruit serves to counteract the poison. The duck was looking for him to save his mother and brothers who were injured fighting with another Pokémon.
It is quite strange how I cannot understand his language, but I understand the essence of what he is telling me.
I watch as the duck heads to the river, but not before stumbling and crushing the fruit again.
I sigh as I climb the tree again grabbing more of the pink fruit.
The duck looks at me and that this time I have more than one fruit in my arms I tell him "guide me to your family, I'll help you carry the pink fruit" the duck stays still for a few seconds, as if trying to think something
When I was about to repeat my message the duck screeched "psyd" and started walking up the river.
"It seems that he understood me" I say in a low voice as I follow the duck
After a few minutes walking, on the bank of the river I see a large blue duck lying on the floor and around it two yellow ducks in the same way on the floor, they have greenish beaks and show a face of intense pain.
The duck he came with approaches the blue duck while saying "psyd, psyd, psyd" the blue duck turns to see me, while the yellow duck continues saying "psyd, psyd, psyd, psyd"
I'm glad to bring more than one fruit, that saved us time, I give a pink fruit to the yellow duck, he grabs it and gives it to the blue duck, the blue duck takes it and eats it slowly, not without stopping watching me.
You're not going to eat me, are you? I think with a little fear while the yellow duck gives a fruit to his brothers.
A couple of minutes later the green of their beaks is much lighter. They do not seem to be suffering so much, heck that fruit is fast, or will it be that Pokémon heal much faster than a human.
The blue duck stands up. Realizing he's four times my size, I take a few steps back, preparing to fly off.
The blue duck stares at me and says, "thank you for helping me and my family"
I understand him, not like the other Pokémon that I only hear screams, to this blue duck if I can fully understand it, is it because it is an evolution? Or here psychic power comes into play.
"No problem, I saw your son a little desperate, so I decided to help him" I answer as I scratch the back of my neck and smile at him.
"Even so, someone like you took the trouble to help us makes me very happy. If there is something I can do to make it up to you, don't hesitate to tell me "
Wow, she seems to be very grateful, I see her as she bows briefly and immediately approaches her children watching them and breathes a sigh of relief.
"I'm quite new to the forest so I don't know much about this area, tell me, can you give me information?"
"What do you want to know?"
"Have you seen humans in this area?"
"I don't like humans very much, they always capture us and force us to fight, I don't like to fight, that's why I avoid them as much as possible, that's why I like to be in this area where they rarely appear" while she lie back, it seems that the poison is still not fully cured.
"If I understand you, being forced to fight others have not exactly very pleasant"
"Although my brother loves to fight, he went with a little trainer years ago saying that he is going to be an elite Pokémon" -
"Pokémon elite?"
"They are Pokémon fans of fights. It is said that they are on the cusp of Pokémon, when you find a good human you can gain experience fighting and the more you fight the stronger you become"
I see there are also that type of Pokémon. I keep asking him about humans and Pokémon. apparently its information does not differ much from that of the game or the series.
As we continue talking, she tells me that the stronger the Pokémon, the more intelligent they are. Basically in this world there are levels for Pokémon and they are classified in this way
From level 1 to 20 they are newbies, generally they cannot communicate very well, they are basically like children.
From level 21 to 40 they are adults, here the Pokémon already communicate in a better way and mostly understand humans
From level 41 to 60 they are experts, here they already develop a better understanding of language and understand humans perfectly.
From level 61 to 80 they are elite, they are basically the Pokémon that occupy the strongest trainers, they are extremely intelligent and are capable of devising various strategies,
From level 81 to 100 they are champions, they are the cusp of the Pokémon race, only a few trainers can raise them to this level since extreme care is needed, humans select their parents and from the egg they already have an excellent pedigree, But not only that is enough, it has a lot to do with the type of training, that is why only expert trainers can raise them.
It is said that a champion-level Pokémon can understand its trainer just by looking at it, which shows the powerful bond between the two.
Well it seems that this world is more complicated than I thought, but how does the blue duck know all this? It does not seem that he is lying, there must be something in his story that he does not want to tell me, it would be better not to ask.
As we continue talking, it is getting dark, I realize that the yellow ducks are already well, the blue duck takes out a lot of fruit and offers me a shelter to spend the night.
I accept their offer and stay with them to rest.
