''I knew this might be the case.''
''What do you mean?''
''Your current condition.''
"What about it?"
"According to Alakazam here, he can't Synchronise with you or Riolu.''
''So, does that mean-"
"Yes, both of you are fused with ancient energy, it's nothing more than a miracle that you're still able to keep your sanity. I am not an expert when it come to ancients but it's safe to assume that your memories fragmented as a consequence of direct exposure to the Ancient energy.''
Sitting in front of me is an elegant man dressed in red with blue hairs and blue tinted glasses.
The final hurdle before facing Cynthia, most powerful of the Elite Four, Lucian, Psychic type expert.
Sounds like Cynthia didn't mean a half assed arrangement when she said that she'll have me consulted by a psychic type expert. But isn't it too much? Like for fucks sake he's one of the elite four. And most powerful one at that. Even this Alakazam. Oh speaking of Alakazam-

Description:
Alakazam wields an incredibly high level of intelligence. It's brain continually grows, making its head far too heavy to support with its neck.

----------------------------------------
Holy crap! This dude is a beast!
Scary.
Alakazam is top of the list of a few Pokémon I've never wanted to meet in real life.
Reason?
BECAUSE IT'S SCARY!
LOOK AT THE DESCRIPTION!
It possess too much information. Too much, I say! Too much intelligence means an expected increase in variability. AND I DON'T FUCKING LIKE VARIABLES!
What if it has seen through the Tina's illusion?
What if it broke the barrier?
Variables variables everywhere.
This is bad.
Argh! My head is hurting!
I need to keep my calm!
So, I can't access it's full status like Tina, most reasonable explanation would be that it's not my Pokemon.
I glanced at still pondering Lucian. It doesn't look like he has seen through anything yet. That's a plus. Looks like even most intelligent pokémon can't tear through the Tina's energy barrier. Tina: 1 Alakabakazam: 0 ,Gwehehehe
''So? Is there a way?"
''Well, it's like broken memories can only be fixed by psychic powers. It can heal naturally by experience similar experiences.''
''Similar experiences?"
"Yeah, by the looks of it, you were an Pokémon researcher before, your knowledge on moves and abilities is outstanding. I was surprised myself when you identified why Alakazam was using [Synchronise] and [Telepathy] at the same time. Both are the most rare abilities. Not every researcher understands the mechanism behind using both at same time.''
''It was just a guess, but isn't it kinda obvious that [synchronise] can only synchronise with brain waves and follows the active mechanism to creates something virtual to replicate the abilities. And using it along with Telepathy helps him create something like a brain replica.''
''Close enough! That proves that you're a researcher.''
''Well, I guess I have to agree with you.''
''So, there's a Professor in sandgem town who's interested in your case.''
Rowan?
Bingo! Gwehehehe
''So, am I lab Rattata now?"
"I don't know what you mean but I assure you it isn't what you think. He is actually quite famous researcher in entire Sinnoh, perhaps he's interested in concept of ancient energy.''
''I would be surprised if any researcher isn't.''
''I agree with that. So, would you like to meet him and discuss it yourself?"
"Is he here?''
''After the past events I would be surprised if there's any researcher who isn't interested in Mt. Coronet, and Rowan is no exception. He is here with his two young assistants.''
''It would be a pleasure to meet the esteemed professor of Sinnoh.''
''Alright. I'll inform him. You rather recovered quite quickly, can't say I am surprised seeing your large and built frame. You look fine now, I think you'll be discharged shortly. Feel free to have walk around Eterna, I'd loved to be your guide if the circumstances were a little better.''
''Well, it's kinda same for me, even I wouldn't dare hold a member of elite four for the town tour.''
''Return! Alakazam!''
Red light engulfed Alakazam and he returned to his trainer.
''I hope we meet again, I am quite excited to see the growth of that 'Riolu' of yours.''
With this, Lucian chucked and left the room.
...
...
So, he saw through the illusion, sly bastard. I am not even surprised if that beast of an Alakazam saw through all this little shitty drama of ours.
''So, Tina did he saw through you?"
[I doubt it master, he was trying to peek in with the help of miracle eyes but those insects should know their places! How dare those filths tried laying their filthy hands on that sacred psyche of yours]
[I SHALL ERASE THEIR EXISTEN-] *thwack*
[Ow]
I gave a hard Thwack on her head. She needs to chill out man. For one after losing her stats as a panelty, she's nowhere near beating that beast of a Alakazam.
And second
*Thwack*
[Owch]
''What the hell was was that?''
[But h-he... M-master]
''My fucking Arceus, you need to chill girl! I am perfectly fine! See... He didn't had any ill intensions, He was here just for something like a mental checkup!''
[...]
''And you're not allowed to attack anyone like that, did you forget that you've lost all of you accumulated stats. You can't just go and challenge everyone before regaining your some portion of your past potential.''
[I am a disgrace Mast-] *Thwack*
[Owch]
"Didn't I say it wasn't your fault? If I saw you blaming yourself once more I swear I'll Thwack the shit outta you. So, Stop blaming yourself!"
[Y-yes Master!]
''And no challenging Pokémon without my permission, you'll end up hurting yourself.''
[Understood, Master!]
"And no hurting humans! Without my permission, that is.''
[Understood, Master!]
I can't see her face but I think Riolu's face expressions are genuine. She's the size of a blue puppy.
Apparently, Illusion not only betrays the sense of sight but all five senses. So, I can feel the soft fur and warmth on Riolu's head while petting her.
Someone wants more stretches eh? She's going ''Riioooo'' while I stretch her back.
IT'S LIKE A SMOL DOGGO!
Cute!
It's quite late in night, and I am kinda sleepy now. I hugged the small Riolu and fell asleep before I even knew it. Ah! This is heaven!
HGSHSHS! AM UP!
Dad was a retired military officer, so, he trained me that much that I am quite used to waking up in one go. Goood moaaaarning Eternaaa! It's time to explore the city!
Let's see, Eterna is a quite large city! Whoa!
I opened the glass windows, I can feel the fresh mountain breeze. Entire city is surrounded by them, there's a river in the south, I can see the Eterna Gym from here. And a large museum in the eastern side. It's early in the morning, sun hasn't risen yet.
I can see Riolu, I mean Tina sleeping peacefully where I woke up.
It's cute!
I didn't know that even legendaries need sleep. Or perhaps Tina is just a rare case because of the penality?
I need to look for Griseous orb in order to stabilize her origin forme. I still don't understand why hasn't she changed her form yet. I remember that Giratina changes her form to altered form when she leaves the Torn world. Origin forme isn't supposed to exist here. Perhaps she doesn't know how to change to altered form? Or it's because she's an irregular, she isn't supposed to exist in first place. I need to confirm. I need to look for griseous orb.
Last location I remember is the Turnback cave. It's actually a hidden cave that connects this world to distortion world. But the pokemon there are actually very dangerous. I need to prepare.
I don't think people here know much about that either. Or perhaps they do.
Oh! I need to meet up with Prof. Rowan today anyways. Perhaps I should ask him about turn back cave and distortion world.
Tina is still sleeping.
The light breeze is still flowing from the windows.
Sun has yet to rise.
The mountains.
The river.
It's beautiful...
This whole world, once my dream world, it's my reality now and it's beautiful.
I miss my family but I don't wanna leave this world either.
Should I ask Palkia for a quick portal to my homeland?
That's when I reach the level of legendary gods.
That's future Victor's problem.
For now, it's exploration time!
