Chapter 6: Chapter 6: The World Reacts

SHIELD's Reaction
In the bustling command center of the Helicarrier, Nick Fury stood before a massive digital globe displaying the newly expanded Earth. His single eye scanned the map, taking in the sprawling new regions, enormous forests, towering mountains, and sparkling waterfalls that had appeared seemingly overnight.
"This is unprecedented," Maria Hill said, standing beside him. "The size of Earth has increased exponentially. We're picking up new landmasses, habitats, and lifeforms we've never seen before."
Fury frowned, his tone grim. "And these… creatures? What's the situation there?"
Hill tapped a few keys, bringing up live footage from various locations around the world. One screen showed a herd of Tauros grazing in a meadow; another displayed a group of Squirtle swimming in a pristine lake. In a dense jungle, a Garchomp was seen effortlessly slicing through trees.
"They're widespread and incredibly diverse," Hill explained. "But so far, they've shown no signs of hostility unless provoked. They seem to coexist naturally with the environment."
Fury's gaze narrowed. "That's good news for now. But I don't trust anything that can't be explained. We need field teams gathering intel yesterday. Focus on high-population areas and secure cooperation from the Avengers."

Hydra's Reaction
Deep within their underground base, Hydra operatives stared at screens filled with reports of the new world. A scientist in a white coat pointed to the display, his voice trembling with excitement.
"These creatures… Pokémon, as some are calling them, could change the balance of power. Imagine harnessing their abilities for Hydra's cause!"
The scarred leader of the group leaned forward, his expression cold. "We've already lost two bases to one man—Goku. Now the world is full of beings that could rival him? We need control. Capture them, experiment on them, weaponize them."
Another operative hesitated. "If these creatures are as powerful as the reports suggest, what happens if we provoke them?"
The leader's eyes flashed dangerously. "Then we'll find their weaknesses. Every creature has one."

Global Reactions
The United States
In the Pentagon, high-ranking military officials met to discuss the global crisis. Satellite imagery displayed the sheer scale of the changes: vast forests, towering mountain ranges, and immense rivers that hadn't existed a day ago.
A general slammed his fist on the table. "This is a national security nightmare. These creatures are everywhere, and we don't even know what they're capable of!"
Another official replied, "From what we've seen, they aren't hostile unless threatened. But we can't rely on that. We need to figure out how to contain them if necessary."
The president's voice crackled through a secure line. "Focus on containment, not confrontation. The world is watching. We need to appear as protectors, not aggressors."

China
In Beijing, the government immediately mobilized its scientific and military divisions to study the new creatures. A sprawling rainforest had emerged in the southern region, and reports of exotic creatures like Dragonite and Lucario quickly reached the central government.
A top official addressed the National People's Congress: "We must approach this new reality with caution and opportunity. These creatures could be allies—or adversaries. We must lead in understanding and utilizing this phenomenon."
---
Russia
In Moscow, the Kremlin held an emergency meeting. Vast tundras had appeared in Siberia, inhabited by creatures like Abomasnow and Beartic. President Vladimir Makarov (a fictional stand-in) declared the situation a "national priority."
"Our first goal is to secure our borders and protect our citizens," Makarov said. "Our second goal is to determine how these creatures can serve Russian interests."
---
The United Nations
In a historic assembly, representatives from nearly every nation met to address the global phenomenon. A live feed displayed Pokémon from around the world, their diversity and sheer number staggering.
"The entire planet has changed," the UN Secretary-General said. "This is a moment of both danger and discovery. We must work together to study these creatures and ensure the safety of all people."

The Landscape
Across the globe, the new Earth became a place of wonder. Vast jungles teemed with life, giant trees reaching for the sky, their canopies filled with flying Pokémon. Enormous waterfalls cascaded down mountains that pierced the clouds, their spray forming rainbows over the verdant valleys below. Meadows stretched endlessly, dotted with herds of gentle Pokémon like Ponyta and Flaaffy.
In the Arctic, Glaceon and Walrein slid across frozen tundras, while tropical islands were filled with Exeggutor and Alolan Raichu. Every ecosystem seemed perfectly tailored for the Pokémon inhabiting it.

Goku POV
Goku stood atop a newly risen mountain overlooking Manhattan. The world had changed drastically, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe. His Saiyan senses were overwhelmed by the sheer volume of life energy surrounding him.
"These creatures… they're incredible," he said, watching a flock of Pidgeotto soar above the treetops. "It's like the entire world is alive in a new way."
Tony Stark flew up in his suit, hovering beside Goku. "So, what do you think, big guy? Ready to catch 'em all?"
Goku chuckled. "I don't know about that, but I'd love to meet them. They seem… kind."
Tony gestured toward the city below. "Well, you'd better get ready. The world's losing its mind over this. Governments, scientists, Hydra—everyone's trying to figure out what's going on."
Goku frowned. "Do you think they'll hurt the Pokémon?"
"Some will try," Tony admitted. "But that's why we're here. To make sure they don't."

Steve Rogers POV
Steve Rogers walked through Central Park, marveling at how it had transformed. The park now blended seamlessly with a new forest that stretched beyond the city limits. A herd of Deerling grazed nearby, their peaceful demeanor adding a sense of calm to the bustling city.
He knelt to examine a patch of flowers when a small Bulbasaur approached, sniffing at his shield. Steve smiled, holding out his hand. "Hey there, little guy. You lost?"
The Bulbasaur let out a soft "Bulba!" before scurrying back to a group of kids playing in the grass. Steve's heart swelled at the sight.
"This isn't just a new world," he murmured. "It's a second chance."

Natasha Romanoff POV
Natasha stood on a hill overlooking the Russian countryside. A newly emerged mountain range dominated the horizon, its peaks glowing faintly under the setting sun. Near her, a pack of Houndoom prowled cautiously, their fiery breath illuminating the twilight.
"They're beautiful," she admitted, though her instincts remained sharp. "But beauty can be dangerous."
Her comm crackled. "Romanoff," Fury's voice said, "report."
"No hostilities yet," she replied. "But these creatures are powerful. We'll need to tread carefully."

Daniel POV
From his cosmic seat, Daniel observed the unfolding chaos and wonder with a grin. The world was adjusting, and reactions ranged from awe to fear.
"Let's see how they handle it," he said, leaning back. "This is only the beginning."
