Departure

[A/N] The MC will not be creating his own faction, most of the journey he will be by himself while he interacts with other characters often, I gave Aura to Samurai because I wanted to add a new side/rival character while also further delving into each Aura's respective abilities. The reason for that is simply because otherwise the Pokemon League Conference in the future will be very bland and boring. The only notable person from the original series was Ritchie and he was just a foil for Ash and also won't even be in this one.The MC definitely needs harder battles to make the league interesting so he's not just bulldozing through. It makes for better character development, better interactions in the future and simply more interesting and fun battles. The reason I added Aura and it's different types is so that trainers can directly interact with the battles and not just be an audience, I hope this clears some things up.

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

Samurai POV

Me and Pinsir became one, I felt what he felt and he felt what I felt. It wasn't just him that went through the metamorphosis, I did as well. I could see the battle through his eyes, feel the damage that he has taken, and since he was linked with me also he could feel my aura enveloping him as well.

"SCY?!?"

Scyther reacted in shock! He quickly used more razor winds one after the other. I felt the blades cutting Pinsir as if they were hitting my own skin.

I didn't need to tell Pinsir what to do next. Because we both knew, we were bonded. Pinsir's body was enveloped in a metalic gleam his armor reflected the sun as if it were made of metal itself.

'Shogun's Protection!'

The razor winds hit his armor only to disperse immediately upon contact. The pain I was feeling faded away, Pinsir got back up on its feet it's exoskeleton shined as his defense was raised even higher.

Scyther stood in shock as his previous arrogant expression was replaced by thorough shock! The razor winds did nothing!

Pinsir quickly joined back into the fight charging at Scyther. Scyther reeled back in his shock and quickly renewed it's previous strategy.

Agility, Double Team, Quick Attack.

But this time was different!

Their bond didn't only share Pinsir's aura with Samurai, It shared Samurai's with Pinsir! Pinsir could precisely predict Scyther's movements this time!

'Left'

'Block'

'Right'

'Dodged'

'Center'

'Countered!'

Pinsir landed a powerful Vital Throw launching Scyther across the field before quickly rushing up to him and inflicting a powerful X-Scissor across Scyther's chest! Scyther directly collapsed as Samurai quickly hurled a Pokeball at him!

The ball slammed into Scyther's side capturing him inside!

'Shake'

'Shake'

'Shake'

'Click!'

"Yes! Finally!" Samurai yelled as the Battle Bond link cut and Pinsir reverted back into his original form collapsing where he stood followed closely by Samurai collapsing as well from the stress and fatigue of that the bond established.

MC POV

Wow...that was something. I walk over to pick up the newly captured Scyther's ball and put it in Samurai's bag before also returning his Pinsir.

I proceed to carry Samurai back to his cabin while he was passed out on my back.

I arrived at his cabin and decided that I had been here long enough and need to proceed on my journey before wasting anymore time here.

I took some paper from my bag and left Samurai a note telling him I was headed to Pewter.

I gave one last glance at his cabin with a slight smile before turning back to head towards Pewter.

"You ready for Pewter buddy?"

"Pika!"

We walked the trail til night until we eventually exited the forest.

I walked in to the Pokemon Center and rented a room for the night with some of the money my mom gave me when I set out. I took the time to have Charmander and Heracross checked out at the center to help them heal from their battle earlier.

I then entered my room before letting everyone but Charmander and Heracross who were healing out.

"Alright everyone we have arrived in Pewter tonight!"

"Pi!"

"Toto!"

"Nido!"

"Soon, we will be challenging the GYM and I plan to use Nidoran and our newly caught partner!"

Nidoran tilted her head in confusion so I followed up with,

"Earlier today we caught a Heracross thanks to Charmander and they are in the infirmary for now."

"Nido!"

We soon turned in for the night as Pikachu rested on my side, Totodile on my belly and Nidoran on the base of the bed.

The next morning we got up and I returned everyone but Pikachu back into their balls. I went down to the front desk before requesting Nurse Joy for the Pokemon I left last night.

"Thanks you for waiting, I hope to see you again!"

I shoot her a weird look before leaving out to the forest.

I released all my Pokemon including Heracross out in to the open beside the forest.

They all did their usual routine with Pikachu as patrol, Charmander helped set up camp, Totodile got fire wood while Nidoran went with him.

"HerraCrohss?"

"Hey buddy, I'm your new trainer Alex...Nice to meet you! I caught you after you fought my Charmander, since you are part of us now I will get you some food, take your time to get used to the situation."

I walk over to start cooking the food after Charmander lights the newly stacked firewood with his tail. I glance back at Heracross only to see him sleeping...uhhhhg.

I stir the stew while everyone returns making sure to give Heracross a weird expression on the way, well everyone but Totodile.

Soon the aroma from the food seeps out from the pot and enters Heracross' senses.

"CRohSS!?"

He swiftly wakes up before charging at the food. Pikachu slams him down with a quick Slam attack with his tail and starts to lecture him,

"Pi! Pika Pika Pi!"

"Croohss..."

He soon cheers back up as I give him some food along with the others,

"Welcome to the team buddy." I say while patting his head as he starts practically inhaling the food.

Me and Pikachu look at each other before giving a weary smile and low chuckle.

"ha..ha....."
