Detective Pikachu (I)

Pikachu's POV

I wanted to go, Professor Oak was really boring, he wanted me to stand on a metal desk for a while.

'Sorry Pikachu, I understand it must be boring for you, standing there. But, it is as much boring for me. Sometimes, we scientists are very curious how you store electricity in you and how you generate it', said Professor Oak.

He put a plastic-rubber thingy on my lucky marks. And fiddled with his computer.

I wondered why Red's mom even allowed him to experiment on me. Well, he didn't really experiment on me. He just....ugh....I...
..I don't know science, so I'll say he was experimenting on me.

Then he attached something on my head, something......scientific. It looked like what I would call Blasting-Pikachu's-Brain-Inator.

My heart was pounding and I could hear the sound too.

'Ready ?', asked Professor Oak. 'This will scan your whole body and copy your genetic structure so I could study you without asking your help, so, ready ?'.

'Of, course. Not', I said, but Professor Oak couldn't understand me.

He pushed a red button which I thought should have had a danger sign. A sudden jolt of electricity jammed my brain and I blacked out.

I opened my eyes, found myself in a laboratory.

'Did it work ?', said an overjoyed scientist.

'Wow, a real life mad scientist', I said.

'Yes, pikapika', he said.

'Yeah, and confirmed', I said. 'Wait, who am I ?'.

Meowth's POV

I was fed up with Professor Oak now, he was really a pain in the....ahem.....head.

I couldn't wait much longer for Pikachu to come. The Oak guy took him for some experiment of his. Red's mom was sleeping, and it was the perfect time to sneak out. It was my time, midnight.

I slowly walked to the window and....sneaked out. What ? It's that simple for us.

I looked at Professor Oak's house on a small hilly area. I started running towards the lab.

After a few minutes I was jogging, trying to jog at my full potential.

Then I walked, exhausted. Pikachu was way faster than me.

Finally, I was outside the old man's lab.

Opening the door was an effort, it was metallic now. Then I walked inside, there was a big living room and a staircase at one side.

I went upstairs.

'Don't, don't, I said don't', said Pikachu. Professor Oak was trying to make him wear a thing on his head which I would call head-blaster.

I walked further to get some attention.

'Pikachu ?', I said.

'Ah, you. Who are you again ?', asked Pikachu.

'Meowth, can you talk to him ? I messed up something, his memories are gone', said Professor Oak.

'Wait, you did it ?', asked Pikachu. 'That's why I thought something was going wrong here'.

'Uh, he can't understand us', said Meowth.

'Wait, what ? Why ?', asked Pikachu.

'Cause we are Pokemon ?', I said.

'I am a Pokemon ?'. Pikachu looked at his hands, then feet and then grabbed the tail. 'Get this thing off of me'.

'Stop, and wait', said Professor Oak. 'Perfect time to test my other invention'.

Oak walked to his shelf where many nerdy freaky gadgets were kept. All of them looked like they'll explode quicker than a Weezing.

He picked up a megaphone.

'What ? Is he gonna announce that he messed up your brain ?', I asked.

'Yeah, I bet 3 on that one', said Pikachu

'3 or 300 ?', I asked.

'3000'.

'What ? Do you have enough money ?', I asked.

'Yeah'. A 3000 Pokedollar bill appeared in Pikachu's hand, rolled to the size of a matchstick. He looked at the bill and hugged it. 'I love you, 3000'.

Suddenly, Oak kept the smaller size of the megaphone in front of my mouth.

'We need to get your memories back, Pikachu', I said.

'Yes we do', said Professor Oak.

I stared at Oak's face. He had a strange smile and I heard a song in the background - I am the one, don't weigh a ton, don't need a gun to get respect up on the street.

Pikachu looked at me. 'Can you hear Ultimate by Denzel Curry in the background ?'.

'Yes', I said.

'Me too'.

Yellow's POV

'I was too late, Professor Oak would be expecting me in his lab right now', I told Chuchu.

Chuchu was my female Pikachu whom I befriended a few weeks ago. She was always in a mood to run. Running was her favorite thing.

People usually like eating, playing and stuff, but Chuchu liked running.

Chuchu and I were - running. And you would say - yes Yellow, you are late for something, and you have to reach there on time. Wrong.

We were not running towards something, we were running from something.

'Duck !'. I shouted, when a Psychic attack threw a giant rock towards us. 'Stop, I didn't mean to...'.

And it's not what you think, it's not Orchid. Orchid was a very polite Pokemon, Red gave him to me a month back and went away.

'Chuchu use Thunderbolt'.

Okay, what happened was, I was too tired after walking through the Viridian Forest, so I decided to rest near a tree on Route One.

Funny, that it wasn't a tree. I lay down without realizing and looked up when I saw several faces staring at me. Chuchu freaked out and used Slam on it.

The Exeggutor fell to the ground, then stood up in rage and started following us, throwing rocks and logs using his Psychic abilities.

Exeggutor used Egg Bomb on Chuchu. Chuchu fainted.

'Enough, I've apologised a million times. Go Orchid'.

Oh, and...Orchid was what Mr.Fuji called his creation, Mewtwo, just in case you wanted to know.

'Orchid, use Body Slam'. Exeggutor fainted in just a hit.

Orchid hovered back to me. 'Thanks Orchid'. Orchid smiled. 'Can you fly us to Pallet Town ?'.

Orchid nodded in agreement.

Blue's POV

'And, why were you trying to know how Pikachu stores electricity ?'. I asked.

Gramps seemed uneasy. 'I was curious'. He whispered.

'Curious ? This is insane', said Pikachu through the Megaphone.

'Calm down', I said. 'Gramps, just show me what you did that triggered Pikachu to lose his memories'.

'I went to my computer'. Gramps walked to his computer and turned it on. 'Turned it on'.

'Then ?', I asked.

Gramps looked at the computer in surprise. 'Wow, I think I know how to correct this'.

'What ?', I asked. 'What happened ?'.

I walked to the computer and looked at the screen.

The screen displayed a prompted window saying - 50.12 TB file received. Free up space.

'Is that...?'. I was interrupted.

'Yes, that's Pikachu's memories, we need to figure out a way to...'. Gramps was interrupted.

An uninvited stranger walked in.

'You ?', shouted Gramps.

'Professor Oak', said a Man wearing black clothes. Pants, shirt, shoes, glasses and trench coat, were all black.

His trenchcoat had a red R printed on the left pocket.

'Charles, I already told you I am not going to help', said Gramps.

'Oak, I already told you, that if you don't'. He grabbed out a gun from his pocket. 'You get a punishment'.

'I can't let you know that frequency', shouted Gramps. 'I can't let you and Giovanni execute the plan'.

'Just tell me', shouted Charles. 'Or else'.

His fingers were on the trigger.

'Kill me', shouted Gramps. 'But I can't let you know the frequency'.

'What about now ?', asked Charles. His gun was pointing towards me. And my heart was pounding, very bad.

'No ! I will give it you, just don't, please', said Gramps.

I couldn't even speak, I was that frightened.

'Good', said Charles.

'What if I send out a Pokemon who can't feel your bullets, then what happens ?', I asked, trying to sound confident.

'I like him, but, you see, this lab is surrounded by Team Rocket on all sides', said Charles. 'So, you can't really do what you're thinking, kid'.

'Here', said Gramps, handing Charles a pen drive. 'Just leave'.

'Wise decision. And if it doesn't work, I'm coming back', said Charles.

'It will work', said Gramps.

Charles went outside and the sound of a helicopter was heard after a few minutes.

'There was no one outside, he fooled you', said Meowth.

'I didn't know Gym Leaders were babies', said Pikachu.

'No, we....wait, do you remember me ?', I asked.

'Yes, you're Blue, Viridian Gym Leader', said Pikachu.

'I think Pikachu just remembers information, things he learned and he just lost his memories, lost everything that happened in his life', said Gramps.

'First, tell me why Team Rocket came here and asked for a frequency', I said.

'Charles is working on a plan made by Giovanni when he was in charge, but now he is trying to put the plan in action', said Gramps.

Suddenly, the bell rang.

'It's not Team Rocket', said Gramps.

'How do you know ?', I asked.

'I know', said Gramps. 'Open the door'.

I walked to the door and slowly opened it, still thinking it was Team Rocket. But no, it was a girl with an Ultra Ball in her hand.

'Blue, the Viridian Gym Leader. I'm so honoured to meet you', said the girl.

'Uh, hi. Who are you again ?', I asked.

'I am Amarillo', said the girl. 'You can call me Yellow, I'm here to meet Professor Oak'.

Yellow's POV

Everyone sat in the living room, there was a ghostly silence in the room which made me nervous.

'So, Pikachu doesn't remember anything and Team Rocket has a frequency of something using which he can be... invincible ?', I asked.

'No, using which he can rule the Earth, Team Rocket will be everywhere', said Professor Oak. 'I think I'll need your help, we must stop Charles before he reach Johto'.

'Team Rocket is in Johto now ?', asked Blue. 'Wow'.

'Yes, we have to stop Team Rocket before they have multiple copies of that pen drive', said Professor Oak.

'I know just what to do', I said. 'Orchid will help'.

'Not him, Team Rocket will make you a target then to steal Orchid. They can brainwash him to make him evil', said Professor Oak.

'So how do we stop Team Rocket before reaching Johto ?', I asked.

'We intercept them', said Blue. 'I am a Gym Leader, I'm allowed to fly over Military Bases. Team Rocket will have to take a long turn and I could intercept them'.

'I will come too', I said.

'You can't. I'm a Gym Leader so the electromagnetic waves sent by my Pokeball will never trigger the military base alarm. If you go, the alarm will go on and they'll start shooting at us', said Blue. 'Gramps, I must go'.

Blue walked outside. I saw him through the window. He sent out his Pidgeot and flew off.

'I think you must go, help Blue', said Professor Oak.

'Thank you', I said.

'But you should have someone intelligent with you who knows about Pokemon', said Professor Oak.

'I do', I said. 'I do know a lot about Pokemon'.

'You don't. You can't leave without someone's guidance, you're too young', said Professor Oak.

'Ahem, I can help', said Pikachu. 'I know a lot about Pokemon and I'm old enough too'.

'Pikachu, you're ten', said Professor Oak. 'How did you know your age ?'.

'I didn't, but I knew I was old enough', said Pikachu.

'Please Professor', I said.

'You can't, it's a mission, no Pokemon', asked Professor Oak.

Pikachu pulled off a brown hat from a Sherlock Holmes toy.

'What about a world class detective. Because if you want that pen drive, I'm your best bet'.
