Ch21- Baiting Cynthia with Rare Pokemon

Me and Cynthia were walking together holding our eggs. Cynthia's egg looked larger than normal eggs, although not as big as my Gible's.

We gave the Pokemon eggs to the old lady.

" What a rare chance for me to hatch one of the strongest dragons," she said with excitement. I think it's still rare for them to hatch dragons, not to say they are pseudo legendaries.

"You can continue your work, we have a Slugma with the ability flame body, it helps eggs hatch more quickly giving it the heat it requires. It might take one or two days for them to hatch, so do your own thing till then."

"Sure, just inform us when they are near the hatching point"

Me and Cynthia walked out of Daycare, there was an awkward silence between us, we did not know what to talk, so I broke the silence

"Hey Cynthia, you said you have a Riolu right? Does that mean you were trained by the Aura Guardians?"

She was startled because of my sudden question

"ho.....its really surprising for people of Kanto to know about aura guardians, ya I did undergo training there, that's where I was gifted with a Riolu egg. I took six months to finish my training and when you master aura, you will be gifted with a Riolu. The main condition is that you have to make a pact with them that you will protect this world from any threat that tries to destroy it."

'oh six months huh? I think I have that time.'

"Are there any criteria to undergo the training or they select people through potential?"

"Why do you want to know about that? Are you really interested in it? Only people who have the potential of Aura are allowed. They also check if a person has the heart for it."

I took Riolu's Pokeball out and released her

"You see I have a Riolu and she is having a tough time using the aura and...."

Before I finish my sentence she yelled in surprise, she really has a habit of interrupting others before they finish.

"kyaaa.....how in the world do you have a Riolu, it's impossible....."

I scratch my head trying to explain

"Ya, there are no Riolu in Kanto but she was gifted to me by Prof.Oak, his Arcanine and Kalos gym leader's Lucario had an offspring, she is the one and also my starter."

"Oh...you have a Champions daughter as a starter and a blessed Gible, what in the world is wrong with you....."

look at her face, I think she will faint if I show my Scyther and Shiny Ralts. I thought it over for a second and released both of my Pokemon. Ralts looks around for a moment and asks

[Sir, is there a problem?]

"what the hell? you have a Shiny Ralts and a Scyther?" she is at her boiling point now.

"Oh I forgot to mention that I also caught a Shiny Rattata, I sold it for a metal coat. And over that, I have "The Pokedex" with me." I put out all my cards now, let's see if she takes the bait.

Cynthia walks around me trying to feel something in the air with her hand and then she says with excitement

"It's decided then, you will be staying with me till I get all the badges in Kanto"

'Yes, mission success and now its time to bait her further'

"And why would you want to travel with someone you met a day ago."

"Because..... Because you are the biological son of Lady Luck. I am sure I will get something good if I tag along."

'Trust me, you will regret it for life'

"No...whats in it for me? why would I allow you to tag along"

As if not expecting my answer she was shocked.

"whaaaaat? that's not how you are supposed to reply. 'Anything for a beauty', that's how you are supposed to answer"

" Yesterday was different, I have my mood swings. So, tell what's in it for me? not to say your clan might confiscate my Gible."

"Don't joke around. You know they can't do that, considering the background behind you. Who would want to offend Oak and the Elder Clefable."

"I don't care. Until there is something profitable, the answer will be "No". So do you have anything to offer?"

"Why do I feel like you are baiting me? Ok let's see.... you told Riolu has a problem in mastering aura right? I can also see that you have potential in Aura mastery. How about it? I will recommend you to the Aura Guardians in Sinnoh. You can start your training when you are ready, you still have nearly 20 months before the league."

'Yes, successful'

"Oh great, sure then. You can tag along."

Seeing my 180-degree attitude change she was mumbling

"Shit... I knew it, you were baiting me."

Quickly changing the topic I said

"Anyway, I showed you my Pokemon right? show me yours. I am interested in your Riolu."

"Sure, come on out guys."

The moment Riolu came out, scyther started taunting him

"Scy Scyther"

Cynthia's Riolu ignored him and shot a look at me

[Stranger, You have a lot of aura in you...]

and then he stopped mid-sentence by a fellow Riolu beside me.

[Hey girl, What's up? you will be blessed if you go on a date with this great aura master.]

'What the fuck'

My Riolu was shocked by what she heard, She immediately got on to my shoulder saying along the lines

'Creep get away from me'

"Ah...Cynthia, I think your Riolu is a pervert."

her face turned red and immediately returned him to Pokeball. No wonder Cynthia was adamant on Gible being her starter. Her Roselia was chatting with my Ralts.

'At least her Roselia is normal.'

"Cynthia, I have an idea. I will ask my Ralts to teach Life dew to Roselia in return let Roselia teach Ralts magical leaf. How about it?"

"Deal, does your Riolu know any special moves? For now, I can help Riolu with aura if it can teach my Riolu Something."

"She knows bullet punch, I think she can teach him but your Riolu seems like a pervert, can you keep him in check?"

Blaze kick will be a secret, can't say everything out.

"Ahhhh...sure"

Sad Scyther, he does not have a partner. I think we will work on X-scissor together.

"Scyther in the meanwhile, we will work on a new move. Come with me."

"Scyther Scy"

------------------

two days passed by

We were using the last two days to train hard. I got a lot from nothing, Cynthia knows a lot about training Dragons as her clan has a breeding ground for Garchomps, I also got recommend for Aura guardian training and as we move on Cynthia can help me with Team Rocket too.

As we were having our lunch, A poliwhirl came hurriedly and asked us to follow it. I think both of them are ready to hatch.

We went inside Daycare with excitement....

Fun fact:

Although Charizard is a Fire/Flying, it has dragon blood in it. It comes under the Dragon-type egg group than a flying type egg group. Same with Gyarados, Arbok, Seviper, Milotic, Sceptile, Scrafty and Heliolisk.

The only dragon type that doesn't come under Dragon egg group is an Exeggutor(Alolan) which is a Grass/Dragon.
