Isaac

 

The meeting took a different turn when Lucario said about the Pokemon master. The first Pokemon master was a legend. He was treated as a god by humans in this world. Nobody knew much about him as it happened millions of years ago but all of them knew that the guy was very powerful. He might be the most powerful human to ever exist.

"So, you were the Pokemon of the first Pokemon master? First of all, how are you still alive?", asked Axel.

Pokemons did have a longer life span than humans. Their life span also increases when they rank up. In spite of that, even a god rank Pokemon could not live for millions of years.

"Hahhaa, I knew you would ask that question. I am a simple answer for it. That is grand energy.

If you truly master the grand energy, you can do a lot of miraculous things, and one of them is to increase the life span.", said Anubis. 

"Is this grand energy so powerful? Why have we not heard of it before? I mean, it only exists in this island but not in other places.", asked Axel again.

"You are full of questions. If you want the answers, then I would have to start from the beginning.", said Anubis and looked at all of them. 

It then tapped on its chair and 3 Lucarios came with food and drinks for all of them.

"It is going to be a long talk. Why don't we eat first.", said Lucario, and then suddenly a dining table came into existence. Axel didn't know how Lucario was doing all these miraculous things but he didn't want to ask it about it.

Achieving such a thing would take time and Lucario had millions of years of practice. Lucario was also the first of its kind, so it might also have blessings from the world and Arceus. These blessings would make it extraordinarily powerful than other Pokemons of the same species. 

"Hmmm.. So, where should I start? Yes, let's start when I was born. Those times were very different from today. It was very unstable. New Pokemons were coming into existence. New places were being formed. Pokemons of that time were also very powerful. The air was pure and infinity energy was refined.

It was easier to get stronger than now. Now, you guys have to train a lot, and hope that you will be stronger. Back then, you also had to train hard but the results were very promising. I was born at that time.

Isaac had done many things that normal humans would not do. Arceus was surprised at first but after so many surprises, it became numb to it. When Isaac started to train his Pokemons, Arceus got curious.

Can humans and Pokemon live together in harmony? He wanted to know and that was why he created me, a Riolu. 

He wanted Isaac to take care of me as part of his extended family. Isaac didn't have a problem with it. He was excited to meet me. 

We started to grow together. He started to train in normal things first. I was a steel and fighting type Pokemon. Isaac was very interested in fighting-type Pokemons.

He had developed his own martial arts and he wanted to know if I could copy them. Moves like 'Focus punch', 'Focus energy' that the Pokemons use nowadays were created by him and I was the first Pokemon to learn it."

Suddenly Lance asked a question.

"Wait a minute, you meant to say that the first Pokemon master created Pokemon moves that easily?"

Lance was surprised cause it was not easy to create a new move. He had seen Axel telling his Pokemons to use new moves and he had been surprised. However, since he had not seen or spent much time with Axel, he only knew a couple of new moves that Axel had trained his Pokemons.

If he had known that each of Axel's Pokemons knew multiple new moves, he might lose all the zeal to train again.

"Yes, as of right now, all 50% of the Pokemon moves are created by him and most of them are the new version or battered version or improved version of the existing moves created by Isaac.", replied Lucario feeling proud as if it was the one who did it.

"What are battered version, improved version, or new version of moves?", asked Axel equally interested.

"Moves are divided into 4 categories. First is the 'Concept'. 'Focus energy' was created by Isaac and it was a concept. That is the highest form of a move. It could also be said like a root of the tree. 

Then he created 'Focus punch' which was also a 'Concept' as the move typing changed from normal to fighting. 

After him, others created 'Focus blast' which was the new version of the move. This is the second version of the move. The second version also includes improved versions like from 'Ember' to 'Flamethrower'. 

Next is the combined version. If you combine 2 moves and make a new move. That is the combined version of the moves. Like the new move of Slowemperor, 'Hadauken'. It is the combination of 3 moves. 

However, the 'Resolve' of Beedrill or the use of 'Ancient power' is the 'Concept' version. Although, Isaac already created the use of 'Ancient power', you unknowingly copied it.

Finally is the battered version of the move which has lower power than the original version. This version is made for weaker Pokemons or just for training."

"Ok, what is this 'Resolve' and about 'Ancient power'?", asked Lance.

"That is for Axel to tell you. He is the one who created it. Now, let's get on to the story.", said Lucario again.

Others looked at Axel like he was sort of a devil. They didn't know about 'Resolve' or 'Ancient power' and Axel had also not told them about it. It was Axel's secret and they knew that they could not interfere with it but they were dying to know. 

Their mind was equally blown by the genuineness of the first Pokemon master. How powerful was the first Pokemon master in his prime? They were called the genius of their family but comparing them to the first Pokemon master, they were like children.

"As I started to grow, Isaac had already created aura and psychic. He started to teach it to me telling me that I would be more powerful than using my fighting type moves and he was correct. 

That is why Lucario is known as an aura Pokemon. It is not due to Arceus or other mystical Pokemons but due to the first Pokemon master."

"So, the first Pokemon master was that powerful huh?", asked Lance.

"Yes, he was. When I see you, his descendants, I just feel pity and sorrow for Isaac. You are too weak. There is a reason why the Pokemon master and Arceus were considered equal but now the balance has been broken.", said Anubis sighing. 

It felt that it was on the side of humans. That might also be true cause it had a trainer and it still missed him.

"So, how did the first Pokemon master become so powerful? I don't think that only the power of aura and psychic would make him as strong as Arceus.", asked Axel.

"You are right but your perception is also wrong. Aura and psychic are very powerful. You just don't know how to store it and manipulate it. You saw me creating illusions and spreading my aura to such a large distance in the forest. 

That is just the tip of the iceberg and I am not as powerful in aura as Isaac. Isaac was a freak of nature. Now, I am not saying that every human could achieve what Isaac had done. That would be an impossible feat but every human should at least be at least 50% as powerful as me in aura manipulation.

However, you are also right. Isaac had great ambitions. He wanted to be the most powerful being in this universe. So, he did a lot of things and experimented on a lot of things. Finally, he came up with a solution.

The solution was grand energy.

One day he came to me running very excitedly and told me the concept of combining aura and psychic. Now, we also know that psychic is a part of aura. Even though psychic is part of aura, the concept of psychic and aura is also very different. 

He wanted to merge both of them and create a new energy. He said that infinity energy has many possibilities and it could be done. I told him to be cautious about it. Combining different types of energy could lead to something catastrophic.

Yet he didn't listen to me and miraculously he created grand energy. Grand energy was too potent for normal people but Isaac was not normal. He was the one to create the concept of aura and psychic. Even the psychic-type Pokemon that Arceus created were from his concept. Psychic was his concept.

He could handle the grand energy. He started to train in it and also trained me in it. That was when Isaac started to become very strong. His power started to increase visibly and rapidly. 

Even I was shocked after seeing it. I also started to become strong after I started to train in grand energy. He became so strong that even Arceus had to think of him as an equal."

"Is this grand energy so special?", asked Frank this time.

"Yes, it is. It is so profound and powerful that it could literally do anything. When he created and mastered grand energy, he used it to modify my body. I was not like this in the past but he somehow made me more attune to myself.

Grand energy also helped him in further evolving a Pokemon and that was when he created the concept of mega evolution and I trained on that concept. That was when I became the first Pokemon to mega evolve.", said Lucario.

"But you just said that Rayquaza was the first to mega evolve?", asked Lance.

"You are right. You see, Arceus was the one who gave Rayquaza the power to mega-evolve. He was pleased by Raquaza when it handled the dispute between Groudon and Kyogre and gave it additional power.

However, my mega evolution is a different concept. It is from grand energy."

"So, which mega evolution is more powerful? Isaac or Arceus?", asked Axel.

"It was of Isaac. That is why Arceus had to give Isaac respect. Isaac was the one who created so many moves for Pokemons. Isaac was the one who taught humans and Pokemons to live in a harmonious way. Isaac was the one who created aura, psychic, and then grand energy and he was also very powerful.

If Isaac and Arceus were to fight, Isaac would definitely lose. The power of Arceus is not a joke. He is not called the god of gods for some stupid reason. However, Isaac is celebrated as an equal due to his influence. It was due to the positive and new changes that Isaac brought, that gave him the seat.

Arceus knew that humans like Isaac were needed in this world to bring positive change. Arceus had created Pokemons and this universe, however, he realized that there were many problems associated with it. His creation was not perfect and he knew that he would need people like Isaac to control and change it.

So, Arceus welcomed him as his equal and Isaac was now called the first human god to ever exist.", said Lucario.

It had been a long time for Axel in this world but he didn't know much about the first Pokemon master. He only knew that the first Pokemon master existed and he was hailed as an equal to Arceus. After that, he didn't know anything. He didn't even know the name of the first Pokemon master. The thing that surprised him was the secrecy of it. Why was it hidden from the world?

He had many things to ask Lucario and he knew that he might not get all the answers. So, he continued his question.

"So, how did Isaac die?"
