Rise From The Ashes (A Pokemon Rewrite)

The Symbol Life

Back in Kanto, the forest remained still and serene. Pidgey and Spearow cooed in the air, Rattata foraged for food and just now, a Bellsprout had decided to root itself for nutrients. It just seemed so quiet and peaceful. As if nothing could ruin it.....

That was the case before a small mass began to dig itself out of the ground, blue energy surged forth as it intensified in heat before a large, clawed paw ripped right through the dirt and gripped the ground, allowing the paw's owner to pull itself up. This Pokemon is revealed to be a bipedal, feline Pokémon with primarily white and seafoam fur. There is also a zigzagging black stripe on each thigh and two more stripes on each forearm, small tufts of yellow fur on its chest and a longer tuft on its forehead, a single, lightning bolt-shaped yellow whisker on each cheek, large ears with golden blue eyes, and long, ponytail-like or tail-like bunch of fur extends from between its shoulders.

The Pokemon looked at its hands, amazed and interested by its sudden appearance before it clenched its paws and frowned, concentrating as electricity coated them. It then proceeded to punch a tree, causing a huge lightning blast to occur and a thunder clap to sound out throughout the area. When the flash ceased, the tree is revealed to have turned into dust as the area behind the tree became burnt and destroyed. Seeing this power, the Pokemon looked in shock at its own power before clenching its paw and smiling before looking up at the sky.

???: I don;t know where you are.... But I'll find you. And when I do..... I. WILL. Kill you.... *growling tone* Capped One......

Back with Ash and his companions, the Magnet Train they were on came fresh out on the other end of the mountains, and the rest of the trip was a breeze. Nearly 300 miles had been covered by the trip's end, and the train came to a slow speed as it elevated on its track and into a yellow brick building that towered over most of the other buildings in the city. The light filtering into the train went from natural to artificial, and the PA speaker came back on inside the train as it slowed down almost completely.

PA: Welcome to Goldenrod City. We hope you enjoyed your trip.

The train stopped completely and the doors slid open, prompting Ash and his Pokemon to excitedly walk out into the fresh air of the Goldenrod Magnet Train station while Gary and Serena followed out. Azula and Kestrel had been recalled due to Kestrel falling asleep and Azula finding out she had a bit of motion sickness... The hard way. People were everywhere, moving back and forth across the terminal. Some boarded the train, others disembarked, and others still traveled up and down escalators.

Various other escalators traveled down into what the signs said was the Goldenrod Subway system, which by the looks of it accepted trains that traveled back and forth across the city as well as underground to other cities in Johto. Essentially, the Magnet Train was the way to and from Kanto, but other trains could take you to the rest of the Region if you so pleased. They rode down the escalator, swamped by groups of people as they spilled onto the main floor, looking outside to see the tall building and the maple trees as they walked out.

Cobalt: So amazing... We're finally travelling to another region!

Serena: so, this is Johto.... It's beautiful.

Gary: Yep, this is Goldenrod City, not only one pof the biggest cities in Johto, but one of the world's biggest cities.

Ash: Hey, Cobalt, Green, your family are nomads. Have you guys ever been to Johto?

Green: Eh... Once when I was little, but I can't really remember.

Gary: Alright, Serena. You run directions, where do we go from here?
