Wings flapped as an angry Paarthurnax faced the dastardly crew of misfits and rejects.

He landed with a dust storm in his wake.

He placed himself between the fighting foxes with both a look of disappointment and exhaustion.

It was as if he had been nonstop with stopping criminals. Which he might have been doing just before going to the scene of the crime that took place.

He put his claws out to hold Tisa in place.

She snapped her fangs at him.

This won't happen. He won't catch us! No matter what happens!

Paarthurnax yelped as he swiftly leaned away from her snapping jaws.

He took in a breath, sighing.

"Look, I'm tired of you guys going around being villains. You're just not...as good as it as you think. Please just surrender." The Starter Squad leader seemed more tired than usual.

It looked as if something happened.

Of course that was none of Tisa's business. She was just noting it.

Tudi scoffed. "Of course we're not going to just give up all our hopes in dreams for a measly starter. Especially not one that's shiny and spoiled rotten by all his followers." Tudi sassily remarked as he jabbed a claw at the leader.

"But..."Paarthurnax began. It seems he had more to say.

"Ugh. Not everyone is like your annoying squad." Tudi groaned.

Paarthurnax holds up a claw as if to silence them.

Tisa was silent. She felt as if what Paarthurnax had to say next was of importance. Who knows, maybe it was a secret that only he knew.

"Well out with it. I only have so much patience." Tudi growled, flexing his claws.

Yeah, Tisa thought. Only so much patience to wait until he could kill his next victim.

Skliros glared at the shiny Charizard.

Tisa blinked.

There was something off with his demeanor.

His posture wasn't nearly as relax as it usually was. And his face. It was an expression of unknowable evil. Evil that even the most evil of evils could never possess. Not in a million years.

There was something about this Darkrai, and Tisa knew it.

Now he was showing off his true colors.

The colors only a demon or the devil could show.

Not even Giratina could match it.

Of course these days Giratina was wallowing around in self pity. He had learned his lesson long ago, and now he's facing his time for his damage.

Skliros growled as Paarthurnax lowered the claw.

"Skliros," he began.

All eyes went on the Darkrai.

"He's not who you think he is." Paarthurnax states to them.

Tudi scoffs. "What?! Of course he's who we think he is. He promised us greatness." He growls.

"If you defeat Arceus. Look, if you don't learn it now you never will. He's more evil than the rest of you. I'd say the rest of you could go, but you're all villains so..." Paarthurnax finishes.

He presses his claws into his mouth. He blows in a whistle, a paw waving around in the air as many starter—reluctant or not—show up.

They surround the villains. Rau growls at them while Tisa just sneezes at the surrounding police.

"Where's the spotted one?" A voice asked. A grown up Pip was there.

If anyone from the squad has earned Tudi's hatred the most it was the one who took the life of his father—his better father.

Tudi curled his claws into a fist. "Pip." He growled.

Pip gave a swift glance towards him. His gaze was no longer readable like it was back in the day.

Did that come with the evolution? Or something else? Tisa pondered.

His features change tremendously.

How old is this child now? Are we really older now? It doesn't feel like it's been a couple years ago since I joined up with this joker and the rag doll.

Tisa sighed. Man does time go faster than what people make it out to be during school. Not that Tisa ever went to such a prison.

Pip no longer had the anger in his eyes. It felt odd to see him without anger in his eyes.

Tisa scrunched up her face.

"Tudi," he greeted, more mature than he had been.

Every time they met up with the seal he always seemed either sad, mad, or depressed.

Tisa seriously wanted to know what happened.

Her wondering was answered when a male and female water type walked up besides him and he smiled.

A Squirtle and an Oshawott.

"You're under arrest," Pip said, clearing his throat.

He held out his flipper. It held his badge.

Tudi scoffed. "You think I'm just going to go with you stupid lot?" He asked.

"Right," Skliros said. "They're not that stupid, Paarthurnax. They won't believe what the enemy has to say. You never treated us with much kindness, so that's on you." Then the Darkrai got his strange little habit back and tipped his hat to the black Charizard.

Or was he gray? Tisa couldn't tell.

Paarthurnax folded his arms.

"And you're going to ruin the world with your ideas!" Paarthurnax snarled.

"My ideas? They're better than yours you overrated, oversized lizard!" Skliros shouted, ensuring his hat was more crooked than he intended it to be.

Paarthurnax roared in slight anger. "What's so good about destroying the god of all Pokémon?! The Alpha pokemon?! What is good about any of that?"

Flames come out of the older Pokémon's mouth in short smoky bursts.

"No more rules mean that we can do as we please. Doesn't that sound better than having a judgmental fool ruling over us all?"

"We need Arceus! Arceus brings us peace from fools like you! When Arceus was frozen within stone it all fell apart!" Paarthurnax tries to prove.

"But he tried to destroy the world all because of his precious plates!" Skliros exclaimed.

Paarthurnax groaned. "You just don't get it. We won't be here if it wasn't for Arceus." He commented, paw to his face in anguish.

His explanation wasn't doing any good at this point.

Skliros lifted his ragged paw. "I've had enough of this tomfoolery!" He snarled, a Dark Pulse coming from his paws in a twist that looked like a strand of DNA.

The Pulse blasted Paarthurnax and his 'mon away from the villains.

Skliros smirked. "I see you've forgotten about how powerful I am. Let's see, I'm way stronger than any of your starters could ever be." He stated, earning a growl from a few newer members who managed to worm their way into this elite group.

Tisa analyzed her enemies closely. Among them was a Treecko. Of course he had been there longer than any of the newer ones.

There were a few Pokémon there that didn't look as if they even belonged there.

One of those being a very scared Tepig. Next to him was a Litten who was far more fiery than he was. And next to them? An overly excited—his eyes showed different as if he was questioning himself—shiny Charmander.

Tisa gritted her teeth.

It was the little shiny Charmander they tried to kill earlier. And he was on the squad.

How like Paarthurnax to let his own son join the squad while others can't.

"How dare you say that about the Starter Squad you punk," the Treecko growled; the young Treecko's scar was moving quite a bit.

It looked as if the wound on his stomach wouldn't be able to take another hit.

Why'd the lame Charizard hire this one?

The Treecko—known as Churro—went face to face with Skliros.

Absolutely no fear in his eyes. Only distaste for the mythical was in them.

"You're the pink, scar-cko. You look as if a single bite could ruin your little perfect body. None of you will be able to stop us. You're all a bunch of kids in compared to us."

"Take that back! You wish you could be as strong as me!" The Treecko snarled.

Man was it easy to get on this guy's nerves.

Skliros laughed. "Wow! You think you can beat me, stupid? You must be more dense than that Decidueye!"

At those words Eule poked his head out of the crowd and shouted, "Hey! At least I am fabulous unlike you guys!"

Skliros rolled his eyes, pointing to his hat.

Eule rolled his eyes. "Nobody needs any comments from you, Ghost lover."

The fighting continued on and on until a blue Scorbunny appeared and broke up the fighting somehow.

"What's going on here?" He asked. He looked about ten years old.

About as old as a certain Teddy Bear pokemon that only a few Pokémon knew about.

"These villains are attacking us." Paarthurnax tells him, putting himself in front of the child.

The child didn't even blink.

"No! These idiots have stupid goals!" Tudi argues.

The child then turned to them and said, "I'm totally not a replica of Toy Bonnie. And I haven't been sent here to totally help you." He said.

He then winked.

What the Heck?

"And this totally isn't a story." He continued as he double Kicked Skliros, fainting him on impact.

What an Overpowered Pokemon.

Somewhere in another dimension a Pikachu with a Ukulele on his back had a sense of disappointment and oddly pride.
