ignorance is bliss.

when too much insistence is placed on prohibition, it is natural for delinquency to spring from curiosity. while not one to fall for such temptations, bigger incentives place the act higher than the supposed risk a civilian should be aware of on kyle's priority list.

stories tell of forces that make themselves known. kyle is content with sneaking into the shadows and remaining a piece on the backdrop as he heads for his objective:

medical records from the demolished petalburg hospital.

a request from a survivor of the facility who had been denied a chance to get back to the city for safety reasons. it was the type of request you give to individuals like kyle who can go around prohibitions.

kyle attempts to sneak through the vegetation of the strip of land connecting oldale with petalburg, using the conflict as a smokescreen. he lays low to avoid detection, but there is only so much he can do when eyes were expectant of reconnaissance from the other side.

The hospital was a wreck, forgotten and casually dusted over by Team Rocket once the city was securely theirs. It had been a surgical strike, meant to kill moral and show the utterly merciless nature that Team Rocket had often bleated of but rarely displayed.

It was meant to harm. There was no other reason to destroy a civilian target.

If Kyle had made it, he would've found that large swaths of the hospital were missing. Massive chunks of rebar and concrete were swept away and deposited in an unknown location. Yet that doesn't matter, because Kyle Lopez does not make it to Petalburg. He was stealthy, but even the sneakiest detective only had to often hide from two eyes, as knew.

Crumble, unfortunately, had eight.

Which is why, through the trees and brush and craters and every other snag and hiccup between Oldale and Petalburg, the Top Champion detective is met with a Claydol. Immediately, its eyes glow red and a loud siren began to blare out.

'WEEEEEEE OOOOOOOOOOOOO WEEEEEEEEEEEE OOOOOOOOOOOOO!'

he quickly turns to the direction of the alarm after being, well, alarmed.

he twists around for his pokeball-- the best lifeline a normal person would have in this situation. fingers pluck a pokeball out of his waist, enlarging it with the click of a trigger, and silently releasing the gyarados inside.

the other would be assistance from their peers.

"taunt," kyle whispers a command amid the loud noises.

to make it focused on fighting the gyarados over everything else, it turns the situation into a lesser extent of undesirable. besides, it's easier to hide the noise of a battle amid the war instead of a dedicated siren.

he banks on claydol being trained to be utility, given its role as sentry. the aquatic serpent shows off its cry, specifically agitating its target.

kyle takes it slow and steady, playing the safe game. given the situation, he starts to doubt his judgement.

Nobody could deny that was a smart man. Even at his stupidest, which was when he was playing video games, he was smarter than most of his contemporaries. The term for this was 'common sense'. Some would say it was in shockingly short supply.

'WEEEEEEEEEEE OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WEEEEEEEEEEE OOOO-'

Crumble's alarm sputtered to a stop as quickly as it began, though it echoed through Route 102, ringing into Petalburg and rebounding off of artificial mountain ranges that had not been there the month before. Crumble's eyes flickered red with rage as it turned to face the detective. The fact that an automaton could get enraged by a mere taunt was ridiculous, but it had succeeded.

No need to look a gift Ponyta in the mouth.

Still, the faint siren echoed.

Furious, the Claydol's charged up a standard attack for an automaton to wield: a Hyper Beam blasted towards Kyle and his Gyarados, turning the ground into a molten slurry of dirt and glass.

the attack razes the vegetation. if kyle cared about nature enough (that he'd change professions to ranger), he would have been more affected.

kyle kicks himself away from the gyarados as the claydol's move is fired. his own pokemon's effort to move its trainer out of the way pushes him to the ground, though he is quick to get back up to his feet.

they may have readied themselves for an attack right after taunting it for a fight, but indecisiveness slows the pokemon down from moving.

quick movements from the gyarados allows it to only get itself grazed, its scales on its side singed. it moves in, waiting for its trainer to make a move of his own.

"power whip!"

gyarados closes the distance, slamming its tail on the claydol to push it down the ground.

Howard Slayte did not train his Pokémon. They existed as a form of utility, designed to delegate tasks that the admin did not want to accomplish himself. Crumble excavated fossils and cleaned dust from ancient relics. Now, they surveyed Petalburg while the admin drank himself silly.

While the Claydol recharged from the Hyper Beam, the Gyarados's Power Whip sent the doll crashing into a nearby tree, which fell over with a thud.

So much for keeping secret. The Claydol struggled to float, its Levitate struggling to keep it aloft in the face of such dire straits. Crumble was a spade, rather than a sword.

The battle echoed, joining the distant sirens as the echoing dirge that rang from Route 102 and into Petalburg City. After a long moment, the ground began to shake and crack beneath the Gyarados. The latticework expanded with red energy, which curled up into claws of Dynergy.

⠗⠕⠥⠎⠊⠝⠛

The ground exploded, and a giant emerged. Seven dots ignited into a constellation of stars that burned into the detective's soul.

fear implants itself with the sight of the titan.

he finds little hope in defeating it from the get-go. pessimism leads him to hopelessness, especially since being faced with the unknown prevented him from making any logical decision.

survive. it's the least he can do.

"th-thunder wave."

the gyarados releases its electricity at the golem as per his trainer's command. despite putting on a brave front, pressure from facing a great threat is shared between trainer and pokemon.

the heart palpitates as kyle scrambles to find a route away from the encounter.

The Thunder Wave finds purchase. Regirock ran on its own programming, ceaselessly tracking down the intruder with little care for their identity. Many people have encountered the golem over the years, whether it be in its ruin, Area Zero, or while it was under 's control.

Yet those memories do not save people from crudely designed stone fists. Especially when Kyle Lopez exists as an anomaly corrected by the world itself.

His correction is too severe. Thus, as the golem sluggishly moves under its paralysis, it decides that the Emergant detective has to die. A Rock Slide descends from the heavens, causing nearby trees to crack and splinter under the weight of large boulders.

Meanwhile, a signal is sent out.

the gyarados immediately sweeps its aqua tail across the ground, scraping through soil and dirt as it expels a wave from the wake of its move.

a second chance is enough to shake him off from his daze. it only takes an instance for kyle to return to his wit and pragmatism, assessing the situation for the best course for a getaway.

it's enough to push its trainer far enough from the rock slide, where escaping by foot would have been for naught. a sacrifice is immediately met with a quick flash of the pokeball's recall function, not wanting to leave his pokemon unable to returned from underneath the rubble.

there is no 'winning'. the titan is meant to overpower, and overpower it did. a roundabout way of salvaging the situation from hopelessness was needed to be done for a chance to meet his objective.

philanthropy, he tells himself.

he taps a pokeball on his waist instead of throwing them. electivire appears just beside him, and a simple motion instructs the pokemon to carry him as they run.

reminded of why he was here, he desperately tells himself to get a move on. "i'm activating your motor drive," he whispers to his pokemon.

producing a stun gun, he stabs the electivire with his tool. a small jolt of electricity, relative to what pokemon experience, should be enough to jump start the procedure.

the pokemon starts to circle around with the trainer on its arm. motor drive starts to become evident with its acceleration during its attempt to outmaneuver, accompanied with an earthquake in an attempt to slow down any advance.

People improve Pokemon. They allow them to fight better and live more fulfilling lives. The Electivire does so as Kyle injected it with power, which caused the earth to tremble and the large construct to fall over. Rocks rattled free and fell loose, and the golem's size diminished slightly as the quake continued.

Yet Regirock is alone. There is no person to improve its function, for it has already reached its zenith a thousand years prior. There's no human to give value to its struggle, nor is there anyone to activate an ability to charge it further.

So it meets the Earthquake with a Bulldoze. Fallen trees and scrapped buildings are systemically leveled and pressed into the earth, creating a flat terrain with little room to hide. In the background, Crumble floats about.

It has a role to play, but not here and not for this Regi.

Raising a colossal fist, the golem Locks On as it attempts to predict the Electivire's path. The Pokemon is too fast, and Regirock far too slow to reasonably get a grip on it. Rather than elect to play the Electric-type's game, Regirock elects to destroy the board. Dynergy coalesces in its fist, and it prepares to swing.

"WAIT!"

Someone steps into the clearing, clothing askew. His hat is askew. There's the faint smell of whiskey emanating from him, as if recently roused from a hangover. Through the dust and stone, Howard Slayte's eye widens in amazement.

"...Kyle?"

he would have kept moving had he not connected the relationship between the titan and the man before him. acting rashly would put him in a position that further implicates himself and his pokemon to danger.

kyle decides to play this interaction out.

the electivire is ordered to stop, skidding by its feet just before they manage to move away from where the drunkard can see him. keeping the golem in his peripheral, he opens his mouth.

"y-yeah?"

there is no shred of confidence that the champion that howard once knew had, but he kept all the awkwardness. his nerves were obvious to those perceptive enough, teased by the situation of danger and forced social interaction, but luckily, inebriation was on his side.

"are you going to claim i know you too?"

it was a common trend.

The drunken mind moved slowly, attempting to shift through memories in an attempt to communicate with this ghost.

"No, you met me but you never knew me. Why would you? I'm insignificant. But you?" He shook his head, eye wide and ecstatic. "You shine like the sun."

Howard fell to his knees. His hero was alive. Even after Bosch and Cooper had disappeared into the void, Kyle was still here. Kyle was alive. He was alive. The tears came quickly, and the admin wiped them from his still working eye. Even still, liquid fell from his marred one. Drunken tears fell freely.

"I always knew you'd come back. I had faith." He staggered to his feet. "I never stopped believing!"

His voice dripped with pride upon making that statement.

"And now that you're back, you can fix the region! You can solve everything! You can end the war!"

the sun? he wasn't one. he is nothing but a shell of his former self, unable to compare to the dark side of 's unending night.

if anything, he is more comparable to dusk-- a setting sun that has lost its brilliance and is bound for retirement after it did it's job.

"i... i'm not the hero you guys think i am," he murmurs.

he has met a lot of people who had high praises for the person who shared his name. slowly, he has been coming into terms with his situation, but there will never be the right combination of words to convey what truly was in his head.

"i'm not him. i'm not the top champion. i'm not the avatar of ho-oh. i'm just a guy in this world!"

his voice subconsciously rises with each world. he abhors status, and the responsibility that comes with power is something he will always deny should he have a choice. ho-oh's touch is what constitutes the kyle people perceive.

"i'm sorry. i didn't want to disappoint." he breathes, heavy with weariness.

his electivire eases up, feeling the distress coming from his trainer. the adrenaline has died down as it empathizes with both parties.

"...what?"

Howard's eye flickered with confusion, like a dying star burning through the last of its hydrogen before collapsing inwards. This was wrong. Something was horribly wrong, and he didn't know how to process it. He took a staggering step forward towards the Top Champion...

...towards the Emergant...

...towards the hero...

...before stopping short.

"What does that mean? For six years, you've been performing miracles. I have all of your merch. I've seen your exhibition matches! I've watched them a thousand times! You're my hero!" His voice cracked. First , and now Kyle. How many ghosts were going to return from the other side to continue haunting him?

What sort of grudge was this?

"I get it." Howard chuckled and shook his head. He held out a finger and waggled it. "This is all a big joke. I see. Where's Navy or Matias or Josh? Are they in the bushes somewhere?"

The worst part was that he genuinely wanted that lie to be true. If he believed in it, that falsehood would become fact. But to accept that this Kyle was the genuine article would be to enforce a falsehood onto the fabric of the world.

"Kyle." His voice was a rasp. "Please."

he fidgets around, anxious. while aware of the dangers of staying in the same spot in the warzone, he is equally aware of the danger of disappointing the one responsible for the titan.

still, he doesn't want to lie.

"i'll tell you the gist," he nervously starts, "i, um, is it too far-fetched to think of another entity to be inserted in the universe to replace a broken part of it?"

he appeals to reason, which doesn't seem to be the move effective to someone drunk.

"let me take it one step at a time," he tries to assure him, though confidence seemed to be lacking in his statement. "i-if this world really needs a kyle, t-then they really picked the most defective one, hehe."

he cracks his smile, trying to convince himself that this was the right move.

the longer he has stayed in this reality, the more he accepted that his memory would not be accepted as the truth. he learns to be adaptable, and much like how the previous iteration cast logic away for fantasy, so will this one.

"w-will you let me take medical records from the ruins of the hospital?"
