An adult in Pokemon - Chapter 65 A weird confrontation!
“So Mr.Berrywood, you thought you could leave team rocket with no trouble? How foolish. Hand over the berries at once!” Giovanni’s tone was quite stern. Gray could actually hear the pain in the man’s voice, however. “You can not save the World this way! Huff..huff!” Raising his voice, caused his breathing to worsen. A bubble appeared causing Gray to scoff a little.
(Giovanni has the secrets to saving Kanto. Cannot be killed here. He is susceptible to the aura of Trainer. Convince him immediately to leave.)
A subtle power engulfed Gray. His clothing changed and blended more with the darkness. Only thing visible was his mouth and chin.
“Never. I rather die first. You deserve what you get Giovanni. You can not play god!” Mr.Berrywood counter.
“With the danger’s the world is facing, a more understanding Leader is needed. Team Rocket can do it. The League is not ready for that responsibility. As for the Elite League.. they are to young. Not enough experience.” Giovanni just gave the man a hard stare in defiance. “So why not me? I was the strongest Gym Leader for the longest time. If not for those meddling kids…” He thought back for a moment at hid defeat. It led to the studying of Pokemon. Which in turn lead to his aura treatments. “Someone has to fix this world. Why not Team Rocket? For our friendship of old, hand it over. You do not have the resolve!”
Mr.Berrywood faltered a little. In a flash, a crazed look appeared in his eyes. “No.”
“A pity.” Giovanni wheezes into his mask next. “Heeeh, do it, Monty.” The members near him walked over to Mr.Berrywood. Giovanni’s aura enlarged as he felt the aura increase of his old friend. “Get Back!”
“Burst Out!” Mr.Berrywood let loose his power. The next thing Gray and Sabrina saw was something they did not expect. Mr.Berrywood had a red shell around his body. His arms, legs, and head stuck out. A pair of arms stuck atop his shoulders. His skin was yellow and he was devoid of hair. “I will kill you for all you have done, Giovanni!” His voice started to disappear as he turned more animalistic. More like a Pokemon in a way.
“He… he.. he has a Pokesoul. Is that a Shuckle?” A rocket member fell back in fear.
“Get out of here Master Giovanni. You cant fight in your condition.” One of the aides spoke.

“PokeSoul.” Giovanni said calmly. Bathe in Dark aura, his body changed. When it cleared he looked like a Mewtwo. He turned to Gray’s position. He was aware due to the blessing he held. “Take care of him.” He pointed to Mr.Berrywood. His voice commanding. His voice alone gave the others the power to act.
“Fwoosh!” Giovanni appeared in front of Gray.
“Sup. Causing trouble there young man?” Gray asked casually. “You should leave. I took a job and kind of have to follow it through.”
Giovanni couldn’t believe the foolish of the man. His eye telling him it was a young person. However, the aura was that of something old. Old and dangerous.
“I won’t let you get away with this.” Sabrina had changed into her fusion more than usual. Her voice and presence were completely altered. “Help Mr.Berrywood while I deal with him.” Gray shook his head at her.
“Go and help the others. I actually need to fight him. Call it male pride if you need to convince yourself. But you cannot deal with him.” His voice came out warped and disturbing to Sabrina. Gray shook his head and gave Giovanni a look from under his hoody. ‘You cannot be seen with him. Just in case we missed anything.’ Wrapped in dark aura he flew up. Giovanni followed him up. “So, what are you doing exactly?”
“Who are you?” Giovanni asked.
“You are close to dying you know that?” Gray stated more than asked. “You have something inside you that does not belong to you. If you allow me to take it, I will give you a bit of your youth back. Or we can do this the hard way.”
“Grrr.” Giovanni growled. Fighting he could get what he needs and take off. The fight itself might cost him everything. The artificial aura he has been using is destroying his body rapidly. The fight would be to risky. If he could get a little of his youth back, it would be worth it. “Fine! But I am still getting that berry!”
“If you think so, sure.” Gray reached his hand out and took the blessing from Giovanni. He slowly sent the Genesct aura towards the man. Enough to give him a youthful look as well as some strength. He also took the chance to influence the Master Thief Ball. Just enough to cause a problem if need be. Gray was also able to mark him and could find it anytime he needed to.
“Ahhhh!” Giovanni screamed as he lost his state. Floating in the air for a moment, the Genesct aura ate through his body taking the artificial aura as its own. “Haa.. haa.” Giovanni looked at Gray and felt fear. He stared up at Gray and saw death. An endless amount of corpses behind the man due to his aura. “What are you?”
“Oh, you were able to stay togethor. That is even better. I dont have to waste my energy then. If you want to learn more, I need you to pull your forces out of Neo Kanto. Head to the Orange Islands. Take your strongest forces and stop the infected Pokemon in the area. If you do… I swear to show what you have been seeking.” Gray smirked at the man. His power over Death working over as it needed to. “Can you really afford to decline my offer? You will die if you keep pushing your research so heavily.”
“Tch, very well then.” Giovanni looked at his followers fighting Mr.Berrywood. “That woman who is she?” Gray didnt answer him however. “Fine. But I will continue my research on artificial aura’s.”
“Who is mistreating pokemon? I came across a trainer abusing a pokemon. The amount of damage to afterward left the pokemon severely weakened.” Gray’s tone was slightly cold. he could feel Darkrai moving a little inside.
“Hmph! Not my forces. However, there are a few Team Rocket members who are no longer under my control. My days of mistreating Pokemon are over. Mewtwo made sure of that, it is the reason I was able to get so far in my research as well. I do however train Pokemon intensley still. What Trainer doesn’t these days? Especially with the increase in Pokemon ferocity.”
Gray gave the man a nod of understanding. Releasing his psychic energy, Giovanni teleported his troops and himself away.
“Hah!” Gray exhaled and dropped his aura. “Man, that was close. Still have the blasted Taillow and the rampaging Mr.Berrywood. Or should I say Shuckle?”
Down below, Sabrina felt that Giovanni was gone and let loose her power that was suppressed. This gave her some breathing room around to fight Shuckle easier.
“Hey, I am gonna deal with the Taillow that are still here.” Grabbing his Pokeball he sent Tyrunt and Nidorino to help her. Gray waved at her then left. “PokeSoul!” He turned into his Yvetal state fully.
“Grrr!” Tyrunt growled at the rampaging pokemon. A twinkle in his eye as he was ready to start biting it. Nidorino just stared at Gray’s flying figure. It felt the aura change in him. It was quite happy for some reason.
“Grraa!” Mr.Berrywood growled in frustration. Not feeling its prey caused his anger to subside only a little. Rationality coming back. However, Sabrina was still in his way and she felt to much like Giovanni. Slowly fear pushed him deeper into the Burst Out state.
“Ha!” Sabrina yelled and fired a Psybeam from her hand. The prismatic beam, blasted Shuckle across the way. He fell on his back for a second. “Tch! Calm Mind!” Boosting her power Sabrina started to pace her self. “Damn this thing is tough!”
“Raaah!” Tyrunt stomped on the ground. Nirdorino was getting pumped up. It was using Focus Energy to its fullest. Its body growing with aura from the surroundings.
“Rumble!” Pieces of the ground broke free and sailed throw the air towards Shuckle. “Dum, dum, dum!” The rock trapping it for a brief moment as they landed.
“Raaahh!” Shuckle roared at Sabrina. For a second, it caused her to freeze before she teleported up. The man then rotated again. This time, spinning in place before launching into the air. It shot passed her. And went down spinning faster. Nidorino made its move.
Right as Shuckle landed Nidorino slammed into him. “Baamm!” He had used Takedown and sent the enraged man into the dirt spinning out and burning his energy. Nidorino slid back from the hit and steadied himself on shaky legs. The recoil was pretty intense.
“Grr.” Nidorino gritted his teeth and stomped at the ground ready to go again. Feeling the strength of the enemy, he started to shake and take in more energy. Tyrunt started charging towards the down man again. Feet glowing as it did so.
“Woosh!” Shuckle ignored everything as it shot into the air again after Sabrina. Despite not knowing the workings of the move, he instinctively used Enrage and couldn’t stop attacking.
“Really!?” Sabrina jumped back and wrapped it in psychic power. She then flew up as high as she could. She used Quick Attack in conjunction to give herself a boost. Once she could contain it no more she flipped backward sending him spiraling to the ground. “Hiyah!” Grunting at the resistance she was starting to get a little upset at the man turned Pokemon.
Like a plummeting meteor, Mr.Berrywood was sent at a high speed. Still rotating as he did so.
“Crash!” Hitting against a wall and blowing right through into the water set up for the place.
“Haa. That took way more effort than I thought. Why is he so strong?” Sabrina floated in the area and slowly recovered.
“Raaaah!” Shuckle came out of the remains. It was damaged but also bigger for some reason. “Raaa..” Right as it roared again. It was silenced. “Ughh!” He grunted in pain.
Tyrunt had jumped right at its face. Feet scratched across it mouth creating a tiny gash. Tyrunt landed to the side. “huff.. huff.. huff.” The little Pokemon was tired. Feeling enraged at its oppenent, Tyrunt stomped at the ground building up power. “Grrr, grrr, grr!” Three stomp’s ad he was ready to go again.
‘”Tyrunt move!” Sabrina yelled. On instinct the Pokemon did. “Confusion!” Sabrina pressed her psychic power down.
“Thump!” Shuckle knees pressed into the ground as his back started to bend. He was then hit by Nidorino.
“Boom!” A beam of white light smashed into his head. “Crack, crack,” two large cracks formed on the shell exposing the flesh. Not just skin but actual muscle fibers. Mr.Berrywood was no longer there. Just an enraged Pokemon. The side effects of Burst Out having become permanent.
“Grrooo!” Shuckle, enraged broke free of the hole and stood up. Mouth raised high as it started to use Hyper Beam. “Grooo.” The intake was slow do to the damage.
“Tch, he is gone. A pity.” Sabrina pulled in some aura and redirected her psychic power. Hand outstretched she created a tiny ball. “Focus Blast!” The ball spun through the air and slipped right into the man’s mouth. “Burst!”
“Kaboom!” Shuckle’s body exploded from the inside out. A tribute to it’s defenses, the shell fell to the side along with some weird secretion. Mr.Berrywood was supringsly alive but not responsive. Sabrina floated down and started to check on him. Not before placing cuffs on the man.
The multicolored secretion caused Nidorino to run towards it. Putting its face near it, he gave a sniff. “Sniff, sniff! Arroo!” Smelling the mix he started to lick away. Body growing as he did so. Tyrunt was eating the shell happily. Both Pokmon lost to the eating.
“Is it that good?” Sabrina asked. Nidorino kept eating and didnt say anything. Reaching down, Sabrina still in her poke state licked some tentatively. “Ah, it is delicious!” Ori flew out of her and lifted the juice into the air completely. “Hey!”
“It is not to be taken this way!” Ori admonished Sabrina and Nidorino. “Take out a storage device. Gray is going to need to run tests on this. Your aura has shot through the roof. As well as my own from this. We do not know what the side effects are!”
“Grr fine!” Sabrina and Nidorino both pouted.
“Should we go help Gray?” Sabrina asked. She reached into her bag to look for something.
“No, put the fire out.” Ori said.
“What fire?” She turned to see part of the lab was burning. If she didnt put it out soon it could catch towards the berry farm. “Ahh, the berries!” No longer looking for the storage device, she sent out a Pokemon to help her. “Go Oshawott!”
“Woah why the wake up call?” The little pokemon rubbed its eyes. “Ah fire!” It immediately started spitting out water.
