Pokemon - A real story

Devon Corporation was a powerful company and the Stone family was also very influential. Just like any other influential family, the Stone family also had buildings for Pokemons eggs that either used to be for the young trainers of the family or for selling.

These eggs were given a high level of security. Placing a building in the middle of an island was a genius idea. The building was very big. It had 7 floors and each floor was also very wide and big from the outside. Axel could not imagine how big it would be from the inside.

"Steven, what kinds of eggs do your family cultivate?", asked Axel as he was curious about it.

"We cultivate a lot of Pokemons but the numbers are far lesser than a starter family. We don't believe in selling the Pokemon eggs. The eggs are very close to their parents and most of the time, they don't want their eggs to be sold.

However, Devon Corporation is very big and there are a lot of employees, family members, and friends. So, we had to cultivate a good quantity of Pokemons."

"You still didn't answer my question.", remarked Axel with a smile.

"We cultivate a lot of Pokemons. The majority of them would be Aron, Skarmory, and Beldum. There are also other Pokemons from the Hoenn region that we cultivate but those in very small numbers. We have also done a lot of research on Pokemons like Baltoy and Anorith. These fossils Pokemons are very interesting."

"Oh, that is nice to hear. So, if I wanted a Beldum, then can I buy it from you?", asked Axel.

"Do you want to buy a Beldum egg?"

"Not right now. I have my hands full with a lot of young Pokemons but in the future."

"Hmm... You already know our policy about selling the eggs of Pokemons but since we are allies, I will sell you the egg of Beldum if the parents of the Beldum agreed to it. So, you will have to meet with them and convince them.

Do remember that it is not easy to convince them as the birth rate of Beldum is very low."

"Thanks, I will keep that in mind."

Metagross was a powerful Pokemon and Axel wanted it but not right now. He already had his hands full with Salamence. Training 2 pseudo-legendary Pokemons at the same time didn't look like a good idea right now.

However, Axel was much more interested in Pokemons like Baltoy and Anorith.

If this was a Pokemon game, these Pokemons would not be his first, second, or even a third pick. But in the real world, their value was very high for Axel as they were very mysterious.

Due to the advanced technology, the people in this world have been able to birth a Pokemon from pre-historic times. Pre-historic times were those times that were after ancient times. These Pokemons who had gone extinct were now alive in this world and Axel knew that they had a lot of mysteries and secrets.

Just like Aerodactyl, which seemed to have a pre-evolution form and post-evolution form, these Pokemons might also have them. That was just a theory but it was possible.

So, when Axel asked if he was interested in the research of these Pokemons, Steven completely denied it saying, "The research of these Pokemons is directly under father and the board. So, I have no say on it and even if I were to plead with them, they would not agree you have access to those research and Pokemons. So, I am sorry Axel."

Axel made a mental note to talk to Mark about it and form his own team that would uncover the mysteries in the future.

###

The security of the building was extremely high. There were multiple cameras installed all over the place. The place had a big cemented wall that looked very sturdy and it was also very high. There were multiple guards on the gate and each of them had at least one Pokemon outside guarding them and the property.

The guards were also all over the place. On the gate, on all 4 sides, and also on the inside. Axel had never seen such a high security for Pokemon eggs. Even Cynthia was surprised by this.

"Steven, why is the security so high?", asked Cynthia as she thought that there was something wrong with the place.

"After the episode of the destruction of eggs of the Gatr family, we decided to increase the security by a lot. Other families had also started to do it.", said Steven.

Steven guided them to the building and after multiple checks from the guards, they were finally inside the building. The place had multiple racks all over the place and each rack had around 10 eggs inside the incubator. There were also doctors and nurses taking care of those eggs. There were also some Pokemons that were looking at the eggs of their own.

It looked like a very homely environment.

"Let's go. We need to go to the second floor.", said Steven.

There was a lift and also stairs. Steven chose the stairs. Steven began to talk about the building and the process of cultivating the eggs. This was boring for Cynthia as she already knew about this but very interesting for Axel as this was completely new information for him.

The second floor was dedicated to Aron and Skarmory. The place was very huge. There were a bunch of scientists and doctors in their lab coats roaming around. They seem to be very busy for some reason.

"Come here. This is the section for Aron egg.", said Steven and took them to the right side of the second floor.

"The eggs are properly examined and differentiated by their potential. Since you can choose any eggs, I suppose you want to go for monstrous potential. So, let me take you there.", said Steven.

Axel did a rough calculation and there were approximately 800-1000 eggs of Aron. This was a very high number.

"Steven, you said that most of the eggs are used internally by your family and employees of Devon corporation."

"Yes, you are right."

"But there are around 1000 eggs of Aron only. Do all of them get used by your family and your employees?"

"Of course it does. Do you think that Devon Corporation is small? Of course not. We also have a very huge family. So, all of them are used."

This time it was Cynthia who spoke, "Steven and his family basically have a monopoly on Aron eggs as they are the only family that concentrates on this Pokemon. There are also other family that does it but none of them are as big as them."

Axel realized that he also needed to have these types of buildings for this mercenary team in the future. It was not an intimidating need right now but he must start to work on it.

Steven took them to the section where monstrous potential Pokemons were kept.

Axel immediately used his system to scan and only selected the one with black and brown potential. There were some Pokemons with interesting egg moves. But since he had a lot of time today and only needed to select the eggs right now, he thought to look into other eggs as well.

So, he went to the section where they have advanced potential Pokemon eggs.

"Axel, why are you looking at those when you can select monstrous potential Pokemons?", asked Steven. He didn't know what was going on in Axel's head.

"I just want to see. Maybe I will find something interesting.", said Axel as he started to look.

There were only around 80 eggs in monstrous potential but there were around 600 eggs in advanced potential. So, obviously, it was going to take some time.

'The only thing you can find out about the eggs is their potential. So, why is he looking at those eggs?', thought Steven but he didn't voice his opinion.

He only concentrated on the moves and started to look as fast as he could. It took around 2 hours for him to complete all those eggs by scanning. Yet, he was not disappointed. Instead, he was very excited that he chose to do it.

Axel was really interested in this egg. It was for 2 obvious reasons. First of all, was the move 'Bullet seed'. It was a grass-type move and he knew for sure that Aron didn't learn it.

So, one of its ancestors must be a grass-type Pokemon. This clearly meant that there was a higher chance that its hidden power would also be grass-type.

That was a huge thing for Axel as he already knew about its hidden typing before it was even born.

The grass type was ideal for it as it was weak to water-type Pokemons and the grass type would counter it.

Yet, this was not the main reason why he chose this egg. The next big thing was the passive move. Axel didn't know what 'Greater Shield' really did but he didn't care. Cause it was a passive move and passive move was hard to come by.

He wondered what Aron would become in the future. He never had a Pokemon who had a passive move as an egg move.

But the question remained, whether he would choose this egg. The status pages of those in monstrous potential were also very good. Some of them even knew very rare moves but none of them had a passive move.

Axel was very interested in this egg. So, he took his time and decided to get it.

"Steven, I will get this Pokemon egg.", said Axel.

Steven and Cynthia were surprised by his choice.

"Can you tell me why you want it? I mean it only has advanced potential. You should get one from the monstrous potential.", suggested Steven.

"Well, it is my choice and I want to get this one.", said Axel.

He was very serious about it. Steven and Cynthia asked for a reason but Axel just said that he wants it cause he felt that this was the one.

Both of them knew that this was pure bullshit. A trainer like Axel would not choose a downgraded version of an egg without any reason.

"Ok, if you want this then there is not something I can do about it. But you will have to meet with its parents. The mother is on the island. So, you should go and meet it. Remember, you would need the permission of the parents. Don't worry the Pokemon would agree as you are such a powerful trainer."

The incubator included the mother and father details of the egg and the machine said that the Pokemon would hatch within 2 weeks. Axel found out that the father of the Pokemons was a Sceptile. Now he could guess why it had 'Bullet seed' on its moves.

"Steven, get me one egg of Aron too. I also want to raise it. Of course, I will pay for it.", said Cynthia.

"Why do you want a new Pokemon right now?", asked Axel.

Cynthia had just registered for the Johto region and she wanted a new Pokemon. Of course, she also wanted to compete with Axel.

"I want to show you how better I am than you. Since we are getting the same Pokemon at the same time, you cannot complain about anything.", said Cynthia.

"When did I complain about anything? And it was you that lost not me?", said Axel.

Cynthia totally ignored Axel and looked at Steven.

"Steven, why don't you also take this challenge and get a new Pokemon from here? Then, whenever we want to compete, we will compare from this Pokemon.", suggested Cynthia.
