Pokémon Ranger: Deoxys' Crisis!

There was a lot of excitement in the air for the gang; Brock couldn't wait to visit his home Pewter City, Ashlyn and Alain couldn't wait to battle the last Battle Facility. Right now, they had come to a mountain range, which was beautiful, and they saw a flock of Swablu and Altaria in the sky. Suddenly an aurora appeared in the sky.

"Hey that's an aurora of Deoxys." Ashlyn stated.

"You're right, Ashlyn, it's the same aurora." Alain confirmed.

Just then Tesla started to feel strange and give of electrical sparks. Another problem was the flock of Swablu and Altaria started to get confused and fly wrong.

"It must be a Deoxys behind this," Ashlyn guessed, "remember how LaRousse City's technology went malfunctioned because of the two Deoxys This is the same."

"So what should we do, Ashlyn?" May asked.

Before Ashlyn could answer May, Max and Mairin noticed Solana the Pokémon ranger and her Plusle standing close to where they were standing.

"Hey look, it's Solana and Plusle!" Max pointed at Solana.

The gang turned to where Max was pointing and saw Solana who used her capture styler to catch one of the Altarias; once it was captured it was free from its confusion.

"Altaria, use Refresh!" When Altaria did that, all the other Altarias and Swablus were cured from their confusion, and they flew off peacefully again.

Solana met up with the gang and told them about some strange geomagnetic activity that the ranger station had picked up from this area, which was causing the disturbance earlier.

"We think a Deoxys is behind this," Ashlyn theorized, "We saw the aurora."

"What do you know about Deoxys?" Solana asked.

Before Ashlyn could answer a Deoxys appeared from a dimension, stared at the humans and then disappeared again.

"There's a Pokémon center near here. We shall talk there." Solana suggested.

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

At the Pokémon center, there was trouble. All the computers and TV's and other machines had malfunctioned. Brock tried to flirt with Nurse Joy, but Max dragged him away as he tried. Ashlyn told Nurse Joy that a Deoxys was behind this, which made Nurse Joy very surprised.

"Kids, I need you to tell me what you know about Deoxys, please." Solana pleaded.

The gang told Solana all about the incident they had with two Deoxys' in LaRousse City.

"We heard about that incident at the Ranger Union, and we've heard about Deoxys from Prof. Lund's research about it," Solana said, "who ever thought I would end up meeting the heroes of LaRousse City?"

The gang smiled from that compliment.

"Nurse Joy, did a meteorite crash land around here?" Ashlyn asked.

"Deoxys come from meteorites in space." Alain added.

"Actually, a meteorite crashed landed in the mountains ten years ago." Nurse Joy replied.

Solana asked Nurse Joy for the locations of where the meteorite was right away.

"Please let us come with you to find Deoxys," Max pleaded, suddenly, "I wish to see that Deoxys again."

"Yes, let us help you Solana," Ashlyn added, "we know more about Deoxys than you do."

Solana seemed to ponder on this. Then she sighed in defeat, "Alright, you can all come."

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

Thanks to Nurse Joy's directions Solana and the gang made it to a cave where the meteorite was said to have landed. It was very dark in the cave and Solana, Ashlyn and Alain were holding flashlights to see where they were going. Brock was holding Solana's gadget that read of geomagnetic energy waves. Just then Solana spotted a Miltank in the cave and used her styler to capture it.

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

Soon they arrived where the meteorite was; it was a huge meteorite.

"I wonder where Deoxys is?" Brock asked.

Ashlyn stared at the meteorite; something about it felt wrong.

"Please excuse me Solana," Max spoke up, "but I don't believe that Deoxys is the cause of all these problems of geomagnetic disturbances."

"What makes you say that, Max?" Solana questioned.

"Well it's a bit hard to explain, but I have this weird feeling saying that Deoxys is not at fault." Max explained.

Suddenly Deoxys appeared and started attacking with Psycho Boost.

"I remember that Deoxys can change into different forms; attack, defense, speed and normal." Alain informed.

"I've heard of that too," Solana agreed, "I need Deoxys to stay in its normal form, and then I can capture it and have it calm down."

Trying to capture Deoxys with the styler was not easy for Solana; the Deoxys kept on changing into its different forms and kept on attacking with Psycho Boost, and when Solana did use her styler Deoxys kept on changing forms and that made her captures unsuccessful. While this was happening Deoxys was speaking in its language.

"I think Deoxys is trying to say something." Max said.

Ashlyn stared at Deoxys to listen to it, "Deoxys is in a lot of pain." she said.

Solana held up her styler to analyze Deoxys and found that Ashlyn was right.

"Milktank, use Heal Bell!" Miltank used Heal Bell on Deoxys. Then Solana used her styler again to try and capture Deoxys but again it didn't work. Then Deoxys attacked with Psycho Boost again and Miltank, who became released by Solana, ran away in terror.

Suddenly Team Rocket appeared, and they stood on top of Deoxys' meteorite. Meowth was just about to say that they were going to take Deoxys, but then Deoxys made Jessie and James fall off the meteorite.

Meowth could see that Deoxys was in pain, so he tried to talk to it. "Why are you in pain?" he asked.

Max bravely climbed up the meteorite; he wanted to know why Deoxys was in pain too.

"Meowth, do you know what Deoxys is saying?" Max asked.

"I'm afraid I don't understand Deoxys' language." Meowth apologized.

Suddenly Deoxys used Safeguard, which trapped Max and Meowth with Deoxys.

"Deoxys, what's wrong?" Max asked.

Suddenly Deoxys took control over Meowth and then spoke through Meowth like a puppet.

"I'm scared." Deoxys said.

"Deoxys is using Meowth to communicate with us." Ashlyn concluded.

"Deoxys, please tell me why you are scared." Max pleaded.

"Will you listen to me?" Deoxys asked Max.

"Of course I will," Max answered, "my name's is Max and I want to know all about you, Deoxys."

Deoxys sent Max a vision of Deoxys traveling through outer space in the meteorite.

"It's cold," Max said, "so you were cold while you were traveling through space."

"Yes, I was cold," Deoxys said, "I was cold, I was scared and lonely."

"Yeah, that's too much for anyone." Max agreed.

Suddenly Deoxys disappeared into another dimension, taking Max and Meowth with it.

"No Max!" May shouted.

"No Meowth!" Jessie and James shouted together.

Things were not looking good.

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

Solana, Jessie and James, Ashlyn, Alain, Brock and May were now back at the Pokémon center, and they were worried about Meowth and Max. Jessie and James asked the gang to help them get Meowth back. Ashlyn agreed to help them, but she made them swear not to do anything bad or try to catch Deoxys while she helped them, and Jessie and James promised.

"I think I might have an idea of why Deoxys was in pain." Ashlyn theorized.

"What are you thinking, Ashlyn?" Solana asked.

"When I saw the meteorite, I felt a weird energy from it, so I believe that the meteorite is causing the trouble, though I may be wrong." Ashlyn stated.

"That might be a good cause and I have another idea of what's wrong too," Solana agreed, "have you ever heard of Solar Wind?"

"What's Solar Wind?" May asked.

Solana explained that plasma particles from the sun riding on the wind to the earth. She also explained that the geomagnetic waves and the waves from the solar wind are in sync with each other and the main problem is coming from the cave.

"We need to head back there if we are going to save Meowth and Max and help that Deoxys." Solana decided.

"Before we do, I'm going to make a quick phone call." Ashlyn said, and she dashed to the phones.

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

Ashlyn phoned Prof Oak and asked to speak to Mewtwo. She explained to Mewtwo about Deoxys and about how much pain it was in.

"Mewtwo, I need you to help us find out why Deoxys is in pain and help us heal it." Ashlyn pleaded.

Mewtwo understood the situation and agreed to help, so Ashlyn got Mewtwo and his master ball from Prof Oak. Ashlyn knew that Mewtwo would be strong enough to fight Deoxys.

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

Solana, the gang and Team Rocket were back in the cave and this time Nurse Joy was coming with them. Brock didn't see any reading of disturbed geomagnetic waves yet, so at the moment it was safe in the cave and Tesla and Plusle were okay.

"Mewtwo, can you locate Max and Meowth?" Ashlyn asked.

Mewtwo flew ahead to find them.

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

Soon enough, Mewtwo came back to the gang, Solana and Team Rocket.

"(Meowth and Max are around here.)" Mewtwo said.

Brock saw the geomagnetic waves on the machine again and Tesla and Plusle felt pain. Deoxys came out of the space dimension and everyone else saw Meowth and Max in the dimension.

"(Ashlyn, Deoxys is in terrible pain, and I can sense that meteorite is causing its pain.)" Mewtwo informed her.

"I thought so," Ashlyn confirmed, "that meteorite is dangerous."

"The energy from the solar winds must have transferred to the meteorite and mixed up with the geomagnetic energy." Solana speculated.

The machine that Brock held broke because of the mass of energy from the meteorite.

"We must get out of here now!" Solana declared.

Mewtwo used Teleport to get everyone out of the cave.

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

Mewtwo's Teleport move moved everyone to the valley outside the cave.

"Ashlyn's hunch was right, that meteorite is responsible for Deoxys' pain." Alain concluded.

"It's sad that Deoxys' cradle is causing that much pain." Nurse Joy admitted, who felt really sorry for it.

Just then Deoxys appeared and started to attack with Psycho Boost.

"Mewtwo, it's time to fight Deoxys, but remember we only need to weaken it to get it into normal form so Solana can capture it with her device." Ashlyn instructed.

"(Leave it to me.)" Mewtwo declared and got ready to fight.

Deoxys fired another Psycho Boost and Mewtwo used Shadow Ball. Mewtwo's Shadow Ball broke through Psycho Boost and went towards Deoxys. Deoxys changed into speed mode and dodged the attack and then it used extreme speed on Mewtwo. Mewtwo fought back again with Aura Sphere and Deoxys kept on dodging.

While this was going things were getting from bad to worse with the meteorite; the meteorite was on the verge of exploding. This made Nurse Joy worry about the Pokémon that were living in the valley, and Deoxys pain was getting worse.

"Mewtwo, grab onto Deoxys and use Thunderbolt on it!" Ashlyn called out.

Mewtwo tried to grab onto Deoxys but Deoxys was in speed form and made it hard for Mewtwo to catch it.

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

At this time May, Jessie and James took this time to save Max and Meowth from the space dimension. Max and Meowth saw everything that was happening from the portal, and they called out to May, Jessie and James. May, Jessie and James bravely ran to the portal to the space dimension, and they got Max and Meowth out safely. Max and Meowth were relieved to be free.

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

Finally Mewtwo managed to grab onto Deoxys and used Thunderbolt. Deoxys got into its normal form after being hit.

"Now Solana!" Ashlyn shouted.

Solana used her styler capture to try and catch Deoxys. This time she was successful.

"Deoxys, use Recover!" Solana ordered.

Thanks to the move Recover, Deoxys felt so much better. Suddenly the meteorite in the cave exploded. Mewtwo and Deoxys both used Safeguard and protected everyone from the explosion.

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

With the meteorite now gone, there were no more disturbances with geomagnetic energy and Deoxys was free. Deoxys was grateful to everyone who helped him, and he was also happy to have saved his new friend Max.

"Hey Deoxys what are you going to do now?" Max asked.

Deoxys used Meowth again to communicate. "I wish to explore this world and see many new places and Pokémon," it said, "I especially want to see this world with you, Max. You should me new things in my room, but I want you to show me more things."

"Max, Deoxys wants to stay with you." Ashlyn explained.

"Is it okay that I catch Deoxys?" Max asked the others.

"I think you should, Max." Nurse Joy replied.

"After all, Deoxys has formed a bond with you." Solana added.

"You'll need this to catch Deoxys." Ashlyn took out something from her backpack; it was a Master Ball like Mewtwo's Master Ball.

"Ashlyn, where did you get that Master Ball?" Max asked.

"I got it from Prof. Lund as a gift before we left the Hoenn region. Tori found it and decided to give it to me as a thankyou gift for helping him get over his fear of Pokémon." Ashlyn replied.

She handed it to Max and Max captured Deoxys with it; so Deoxys was now Max's Pokémon.

"Don't worry, Deoxys. I'll take good care of you." Max promised.

"Thank you for your help, Mewtwo." Ashlyn thanked the Psychic Pokémon.

"(You're welcome, Ashlyn.)" Mewtwo thanked her.

"You need some rest. Should I send you back to Prof. Oak?" Ashlyn offered.

"(That would be great.)" Mewtwo accepted.

Ashlyn returned Mewtwo and sent him back to Prof Oak's lab.

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

So Solana's mission was complete and there were no more disturbances in the area. The gang said goodbye to Solana and Nurse Joy and left, while Team Rocket went on their way.
