[ Austin's POV ] 

" So, why do I have to sit in this position ?" I asked while I sat in a lotus position with my new master, Lucario sitting behind me with a dessert cookbook in one of his paws while he placed his other hand on my back.

" Try it in another position and see what happens ?"

" Ok, noted. This position good and other positions bad."

" Yes."

" So, what am I doing exactly ?"

" I am going to inject aura into your body and you have to remember how aura feels to you and its flow throughout your body." 

" Got it but I have a question to ask."

" You may ask."

" Aura Guardian uses aura to mimic pokemon moves."

" Yes."

" Then shouldn't you teach me something like mirror move or substitute to speed up my training?"

" Hmm, that is a great idea. For someone as dense as yourself, you surprisingly come up with extremely good ideas."

" I don't know if I should be happy or insulted."

" Go for the happiness, you are normally insulted daily."

" Gee, thanks."

" Ok, enough excuses. let's begin sensing your aura."

" Yes, sensei."

Lucario's paws lit up in a blueish aura as he injected it into Austin's body.

" Try to remember the feel of aura and its flow and nothing else."

[ The Next Day ] 

The Battle Chateau in Fuchsia City looked just as majestic as the first one in Cerulean City. The group couldn't help but still be in awe at the sight of the building. 

" Hmm, I see that the rich haven't changed even in the future," Lucario stated causing Austin who was using Scizor's shoulder to support himself.

Sensing aura or rather failing to sense aura had left him mentally and physically tired.

" Capitalism at its finest," Austin answered back as he breathed heavily causing Scizor and Yellow to look at him anxiously.

" Ash, we can go back if you're not feeling well," Yellow asked while Pichu vigorously nodded from Yellow's pocket.

" Don't worry, I am just a little tired."

Austin answered back.

" Do you want me to heal you ?"

" Nah, I can manage. You just focus on your match."

" Ash, do you think I can win ?"

" Yellow, how many battles did we have after Rota ?"

" I lost count." 

" ..... Damnit I thought at least one of us would have kept track of it."

" Sorry," Yellow said as she looked down causing Pichu who was sitting on her straw hat to fall off.

" Pi !"

" Oh, no Pichu."

" Is she alright ?"

" Yeah."

" So as I was saying, you have a lot of experience from battles against me and normal training on top of that. It's not you that I am worried about, it's the competition."

" Thank you," Yellow said with a blushing smile.

"Welcome to the Battle Chateau, beaus and dames!" Hennessy greeted them once the group was inside.

"Hennessy!? You come here also?" Yellow asked in surprise.

"I beg your pardon, madam, but have we met?" Hennessy politely asked.

"Yes. You were the head butler at the Cerulean City Battle Chateau," Yellow told him.

Hennessy gave a light chuckle. "Hahaha. That is my first cousin. We are often mistaken for the same. All of the head butlers at the Battle Chateau are named Hennessy, and we all look alike!"

Austin sweatdropped.

It was the same way with Hennessy as it was with Nurse Joys and Officer Jennys.

"In any case, which of you will be taking part in our tournament today?" Hennessy asked the group.

"I will," Yellow answered.

Hennessy nodded. "Very well. Please follow me as I lead you to the other rooms to change your clothes," he said as he began to walk down the huge hallway.

" Wow, this place is so big," Scizor said in wonder as he looked at the beautiful room.

"I know! It's like we are in a real castle!" Pikachu said.

" Meh, I have seen bigger," Lucario answered the duo causing Austin to look at him strangely.

Hennessy stopped walking once they across two maids who bowed to them.

"Please lead this dame to her changing rooms. She wishes to participate in today's tournament," Hennessy told them politely while gesturing to Yellow.

"Of course," the maids replied before walking off down another corridor, Yellow following suit.

" Why don't you participate in this ?" Lucario asked curiously.

" Hmm, I don't know. I guess I wanted to a traditional pokemon journey but after everything, I think maybe I should also do it."

Austin's said, while he didn't want to change much in the timeline at first since he believed that this world had many elements from the pokemon manga and games but leaned heavily towards the anime but after getting the Pokenet, all the news articles he had read and experienced all the bullshit that he had gone through Austin could say one thing for certain.

The usual bullshit that happens to Ash in the anime? Like how every week or so a small town is in danger because of some stupid Pokémon-related issue? Or how a giant Tentacruel just attacks the city out of nowhere or an ancient fossil Pokémon breaks free and decides to go on a rampage?

Turns out, that bullshit does not happen because Ash is the anime protagonist.

That bullshit happens everywhere around the world.

Austin was snapped out of his thoughts when Yellow arrived back from the changing room. Yellow was dressed in the same pink outfit as the first time she was at the Battle Chateau.

"If I may, it is time to start the tournament. Do I need to go over the rules with anyone?" Hennessy asked.

Yellow shook her head no.

In that case, may the young madam come with me? Your friends may watch from the side, of course," Hennessy said as he motioned for them to follow him.

" And young man, please refrain from smoking in this place," Hennessy said as he looked at Austin while pointing at the cigarette pack that was sticking out of his pocket.

" Don't worry, this is just a memorial for the death of someone who influenced my life for the better or worse," Austin said as he took out the cigarette pack which had a date carved out into it along with the words.

Never forget and Never Forgive.

Hennessy nodded before bowing.

" My apologies for jumping to conclusions."

" Oh, don't worry you are just following the rules. This is Fuchsia City after all." 

And I would jump when I leave this damn city and get myself a pack.

Austin opted to not say it as he just smiled.

Yellow stepped over to the end of the battle hall while the rest of the group went to the edge to watch. Her opponent soon came out of the room as well. It was another girl who had blonde hair in pigtails. She also seemed to carry a somewhat haughty expression.

"May the two dames please curtsey to one another before choosing their Pokemon," The judge said?

Yellow smiled and did a curtsey before the girl who gave a small one in exchange.

"You may now choose your Pokemon!" the judge announced.

[ Omake Paragraph ]

The usage of Grimer to poison water supplies is an old standby of biological warfare. As a highly toxic pokemon whose liquid body can easily mix with water, a small group swimming around a reservoir or river can force a choice between death from poison or thirst. Because of this danger, sources of water have been well-protected even since antiquity, and deaths by Grimer poison in the old days did not occur in proportion to the fear that these pokemon caused.

And then came the industrial revolution. With the growth of cities and factories came massive pollution, and the city of Celadon soon discovered Grimer in their ponds and rivers in peacetime. At first, suspicion fell upon the reservoir guards and they were executed, for the people of the city were dying in droves. The government went into deep debt to import clean water from afar, for the city's vast population made it difficult to meet its drinking needs. The new guards could do nothing to stem the flow of Grimer, and it soon became clear that the executed guards had been innocent.

Inspections revealed no pathways between the water supply and the sewage system which normally held these poison pokemon. Weeks later it was found that industrial waste from the factories had been leaking into the reservoir and that this waste was combining with air pollution to form live Grimer right there in the water. A massive cleanup effort was begun, but soon abandoned, for the people of Celadon were unwilling to make the sacrifices to avoid pollution, finding it cheaper to simply import water from abroad and raise taxes accordingly. Today, Celadon is still one of very few places in Kanto (and the only city) where wild Grimer can be found on the surface.
