Hi everyone,

Sorry it's taken so long between putting up new parts of the story, I haven't had much time to write lately.

The idea for this story was requested by PokeyMan686, so I hope it is good enough, though I apologise if this isn't up to my usual standards.

If you have any ideas for new stories, please comment below (I do already have a couple of other requests lined up, so I might not get to your requests straight away, but I will get there eventually).

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the story.

Back inside the Saffron City Pokémon centre, Pikachu and Mew, still in the female Pikachu form, walked from the back rooms, down the hall and into the front foyer area, where Ash, Misty and Brock were all waiting for them, all of them talking excitedly about what had happened the night before. Misty noticed the two Pokémon walking towards them, and tells Ash.

"Looks like you've made another friend there, buddy" Ash comments. "Do you want to come with us?" He asks.

A cry that Ash, Misty and Brock had never heard before came out of the other Pikachu's mouth, before it transformed back into Mew, all three not sure what it was. Ash pulls out his Pokédex, attempting to discover what it was, only for the voice of the Pokédex to say "No information available. Please contact Professor Oak."

"This could be a completely new Pokémon" Brock says.

The group get up and walk over to the PC, and begin talking to Professor Oak, when Pikachu hears a little giggle, almost sounding like the voice was up to mischief, but none of the others in the group reacted to it. He looks around and sees nothing, so turns back to face the screen, where the image of Professor Oak is talking excitedly about potentially discovering a new Pokémon.

Pikachu hears the giggle again, louder this time, and sees a little tuft of red and dark grey fur, and a pair of dark grey ears in the windows, outside the Pokémon centre. He runs to the door to investigate, and looks in the direction of where he looked earlier, only to see a little dark grey, almost black, tail go around the corner of the building. He continues following it, every time he thinks he's caught up to the source, it seems to have moved to a different location.

He keeps following the tail, not realising he is being lead North out of Saffron City, and through the trees of Route 5, before stopping at a den, the giggle echoing from inside. Pikachu follows it in, now much more cautious than before, not sure what he'll find here. Slowly, Pikachu continues further into the den, hearing the giggling gradually getting louder and louder.

Eventually, Pikachu comes to a larger cavern type area, the giggling noise sounding like it's all around him, and as his eyes adjust, me makes out the shape of a small, fox-like Pokémon, the dark tail, ears and tuft of fur on the head matching up with what he saw earlier, before the Pokémon giggled, the same noise Pikachu had been hearing all this time. As his eyes adjusted further, he started to make out another form, this one far taller, standing on two legs, with an almost human-like body shape. As more of the creature came into focus, Pikachu started to see the creature's fox-like head, with purple fur that almost looked like hair flowing from the top of its head, paws on its front hand hind legs, with the same purple colour on the long claws, and bright yellow eyes.

The taller Pokémon began to speak in a gentle, feminine voice, giving Pikachu a feeling of calm.

"It's ok, little one, I won't hurt you" it said, before walking over to Pikachu, towering over him, before sitting down in front of him, and opening her arms wide, as if getting ready to hug Pikachu. "I am Zoroark, and this little one is Zorua" she explains, as the smaller one walks up next to her and giggles again. "I sent Zorua out to find you, Pikachu."
