//------------------------------// // Aggron in Equestria // Story: The Caterpie Effect // by Flames173 //------------------------------// Fluttershy was walking home with Caterpie walking beside her. She stopped by Rarity's place and she made Fluttershy a belt to hold the pokeball, well, it was more like a sash, but whatever. "So, what should we do while Twilight figures out how to send you back?" Fluttershy asked. [I don't know. My old trainer just kind of let me chill in his pokeball.] Caterpie explained. "Well, that's a lot to go on. You want to go back in the pokeball or stay out?" [I guess I'll stay out. You know, new world and all, I just want to see what you do here.] "Oh, ok. So, just out of curiosity, what were you doing when you were sent here?" [I was fighting this one super powerful pokemon. He's a lot tougher than I imagined. I don't even know why, but my trainer seemed kind of mad at it for something.] "So, your old trainer made you fight? Why did you do it? That's mean to do to someone so small and cute as you." [Yeah, but I'm a pokemon, we're supposed to fight.] "Really?" [Yup.] "Well, did you like fighting?" [I didn't really care.] "Have you ever lost a fight?" [Not very often, but yes.] "So, you kept fighting even though you got beat up a lot?" [Yeah, but the winning trainer gets money, and my trainer used his winnings to get berries, rare candies, poke blocks, poffins, and other stuff for me and the other pokemon.] "Well, so does it pay off in the end?" [Oh yeah, especially when he gets us rare candies. They taste so good. Better than the best thing you've ever had!] "Hm. So, how about we go to my cottage and you help me make some rare candies or poffins or something?" [Sure.] Caterpie crawled up onto Fluttershy's back. [I hope you don't mind, my feet were getting a little sore.] "I don't care." Fluttershy continued to her cottage and talked to Caterpie on the way. She stopped when she heard a scream similar to metal scraping on metal. [What was that?] Caterpie asked, a little scared. [Please tell me that a construction worker just dropped something.] "I wish I could." Fluttershy's eyes were wipe open with fear. She noticed there was a crater in the ground. She slowly inched towards it. [What are you doing? Fluttershy, don't. Please don't, we can come back later. OH ARCEUS NO!] "What is it?" Fluttershy asked no pony in particular when she noticed a huge silver and black lump of metal in the pit. After a couple moments of staring, it moved. Fluttershy jumped. She craned her neck to see in better. Whatever it was stood up. It appeared to be a giant raptor. It stuck it's tail in the air and let it fall to the ground. There was a loud thud when it collided with the soil. Fluttershy shot her head back to it's normal position. The creature lifted it's head up. There were three horns protruding from the top. [AGGRON!] Caterpie shouted in Fluttershy's mind. "What? CATERPIE DON'T!" Fluttershy screamed when Caterpie leaped off of her back. He ran up to the creature and softly butted it with his head. The raptor-like thing looked over it's shoulder at Caterpie, eyes red with rage. The instant it saw Caterpie, it calmed down and it's eyes turned back to the regular stoney brown. "Aggron!" it said happily. "Cata!" Caterpie said. The metal thing reached down to Caterpie and petted him. "Caterpie, what's happening?" Fluttershy asked. [This is my old friend Aggron! Trainer must have challenged the pokeman again.] "Aggro agg?" Aggron asked. "Caterpie pie." Caterpie answered. "What?" Fluttershy asked. [He was wondering who you were, I told him you were our new trainer.] "But, I don't have a second pokeball." [I can make you one. I picked up a thing or two when I was at daycare.] "Ok, so umm, Aggron, you want to come with us?" Aggron nodded, and the three went to Fluttershy's cottage. "Mewtwo, I don't know what you're planning to do, but I will end it! Growlithe, flamethrower!" Tim shouted riding his pidgeot, growlithe on one wing and snorunt on the other. "What?" Mewtwo stopped flying and the stream of fire hit him. "Ugg, you insignificant little." He rubbed his face. "Dialga, Palkia, take care of them." he commanded before flying off again. The two pokemon appeared out of nowhere. No doubt using Palkia's command over space to stay hidden. The two beings roared. "Snorunt, use ice beam on Palkia, growlithe, flamethrower on Dialga!" his pokemon did as they were told. Palkia froze so just his wings were free, Dialga stopped fighting to help break Palkia free. "Pidgeot, use quick attack to catch up to Mewtwo!" "Pidgey!" the giant pigeon responded and flew off at a hypersonic speed. Tim clutched down after returning growlithe and snorunt. "I'm coming for you Mewtwo." Mewtwo was already far ahead. Having Dialga secretly use roar of time to slow Tim and speed Mewtwo up, he was so far ahead and so much faster that he could easily get the next few legendaries to help him before Tim caught up. Mewtwo was zooming to the Hoenn region when he looked in the ocean below. A giant whale like pokemon was below, followed by two small blue pokemon somewhat resembling people and jellyfish at the same time. "Perfect, you made my mission easier for me. MANAPHY, KYOGRE, PHIONE! Rise from the ocean, listen to me!" They stopped swimming. Kyogre lifted it's head from the water while Manaphy and Phione sat on it's forehead. The three pokemon stared at Mewtwo. He floated down to them. "What do you want Mewtwo?" Manaphy asked through a neural message. "You interrupted our game of tag." "I have an offer that you can't refuse. How would you three like to share control of the world with me?" "What do you mean?" "You do what I tell you to, and when we own the world, you get your own share." "I don't know." Manaphy pondered what they should do. "What do you think Kyogre?" "Eaaauhaa." Kyogre responded. "Good point. What about you Phione?" Phione was staring at Mewtwo. "I'm not supposed to talk to strangers." she said to Mewtwo before hugging Manaphy. "Well, may we at least shake hands and wish each other a good day while you think about it?" Mewtwo asked. "Sure." Manaphy used her limited psychic power to levitate her and Phione up to Mewtwo. They shook hands and Mewtwo went down to Kyogre and patted it on the head. When they made contact with Mewtwo, something told the pokemon to follow him. "Good day." Mewtwo said before flying a few meters away. "Wait." Manaphy said. "We'll do it." Mewtwo grinned evilly. "Good." he said. Another piece to the puzzle. "Ok Aggron, I'm going to catch you now." Fluttershy said as she held the new pokeball. "Agga aggron." he replied. Fluttershy went up and tapped the button of the pokeball on Aggron's head. he disappeared and the pokeball started shaking. It made a light bing and stopped shaking. Fluttershy threw it on the ground and Aggron popped out. "Well, that went well." [Yup.] both Aggron and Caterpie said.
