[ POV Change ]

As the sun beat down on the dry and dusty canyon, a group of scientists and workers bustle about, their voices rising and falling in a lively cacophony. Towering cliffs of red and orange sandstone rise on either side of the canyon, the ancient rock seeming to pulse with the heat of the midday sun.

Amidst the chaos, a large pit stands at the center of the scene, its depths shrouded in shadows. Around it, a group of people is gathered, their faces obscured by masks and hats as they labor away in the unforgiving heat. Some use small brushes and trowels to delicately sift through the dirt, while others wield pickaxes and shovels, their muscles straining as they work to loosen the ground and expose any fossils that may be buried beneath the surface.

Tents have been set up in the area, providing a measure of shelter from the sun's relentless rays. Inside, the air is cool and dim, the only sound the murmur of voices as the scientists pore over maps and charts, their eyes bright with excitement.

( ~ Crack ~ )

The sounds of excavation echoed throughout the canyon.

The place of turmoil was the great Grandpa Canyon located in the northern part of Kanto.

Groups of trainers, archeologists, and other people had made Grandpa Canyon their home as they dug up the fossils of the beasts that once roamed this great land millions of years ago.

Grandpa Canyon is theorized to have been a great water lake where pokemon from the surroundings migrated during the Mesozoic Era.

Austin and Yellow reached the canyon entrance the next morning, following the markers and the crowd to the dig site while on 

Rhyhorn's back, Austin held him tight on the saddle he had gotten for Rhyhorn with Yellow practically hugging Austin the whole way there.

Austin had ordered the rock type to charge ahead, hoping that doing so would save some time. He had learned it the hard way that contrary to other terrestrial pokémon like Arcanine, rhyhorn could only run straight, irrespective of any and all boulders and obstacles that might be unfortunate enough to be on its way but the thrill was addicting so he had made it his goal to learn to at least ride Rhyhorn.

"So this is Grandpa Canyon!" Yellow exclaimed, looking the reddish-orange cliffs over. 

" Why are we even here if we have a few fossils with us ?" Yellow curiously asked Austin who was sweating profusely, trying to slow down Rhyhorn who didn't seem to stop.

" Come on, stop !" 

Austin's words finally penetrated through Rhyhorn's thick skull but the sudden stop of the pokemon caused Austin and Yellow to be thrown out from Rhyhorn's back.

Rhyhorn stared at Austin's hat with a few sparks in his eyes before chewing on it.

Austin meanwhile cleaned himself before outstretching his head out to Rhyhorn who just stared at it while chewing the hat.

Yellow sweatdropped as she saw Austin and Rhyhorn having a staredown with one another before Rhyhorn spat out the hat.

........

It didn't take very long, as an annoyed Austin and a giggling Yellow followed the chatter, and the tire tracks into something approaching a valley in the canyon, filled with people and tents everywhere.

"Wow," Yellow noised. "That's a lot of people for so early in the morning."

"Most of them have probably been here for a while," Austin said as he glanced at the article on the Pokenet. "They didn't open the place up to the public until recently due to an attack on this place from team rocket a few months ago where team rocket captured a lot of Rhyhorns which resulted in the archeologists getting access to an area of Grandpa Canyon that was the territory of the Rhyhorn tribe where they found a fully intact fossil, and they wanted to get it out of the way before looking for more."

" That is great and all but why are we here ?" Yellow asked.

" I have a pokemon I want to catch in this place." 

" Oh, what is it ?" 

" It's going to be a surprise." 

Austin said as he stopped himself when he saw a group of people ahead.

Austin focused on channeling his aura into his ears. He had been working on this exercise for weeks, trying to harness the energy within him to amplify his senses.

He could feel the aura swirling inside of him, a glowing, pulsing ball of energy that seemed to vibrate with life. Taking a deep breath, he focused all of his attention on his ears, visualizing the aura flowing out of him and into the delicate structures inside.

At first, there was nothing but silence. Austin could feel the aura swirling around his ears, but there was no change in his perception. He gritted his teeth and pushed harder, pouring more and more of his energy into the effort.

Suddenly, the silence was shattered by a cacophony. Austin's ears were flooded with noise, the voices of everyone in the canyon seemingly echoing inside his head. He heard conversations from all around him, the footsteps of passing people, and even the rustling of the wind in the trees.

It was too much. 

Austin tried his best not to cry out in pain as he clamped his hands over his ears, trying to block out the overwhelming noise. 

Yellow sensed Austin's pain and placed a hand on Austin's forehead, her eyes narrowed in concentration. Austin could feel a tingling sensation as Yellow's powers flowed into him, soothing the pain and dizziness that had wracked his body.

" A dumbass is always a dumbass." A voice called to the duo as they glanced to the side and saw Lucario standing with a stern expression.

Austin felt embarrassed as he knew he had made a mistake by overestimating his ability, and he vowed to be more careful in the future. 

" W, What should I do ?" 

" Visualize or focus on whoever it is you want to hear," Lucario answered causing Austin to nod while Yellow looked concerned as she didn't want Austin to go through that pain again.

Seeing the look of distress on Yellow's face, Austin exclaimed," Don't worry, I will be careful this time."

" But."

" Don't worry Yellow, we now have the master with us if anything goes wrong." 

Yellow reluctantly nodded as Austin closed his eyes to focus on his aura.

..........

" Hey, did you see those footprints which have been roped off, and even an Aerodactyl skeleton—they've already started the plaster wrap so they can load it up and take it to the Pewter City Museum."

" Wasn't that just a rumor ?"

" Yeah, at first I thought so too but after seeing it firsthand, I couldn't believe my eyes." 

..........

" Hey, wasn't that Professor Oak's grandson ?"

" Yeah, little shit found a fossilized Pokémon manure, but he's searching for something a little bigger like a madman."

........

Austin sweatdropped before shaking his head getting up and turning back.

" Shouldn't we go down there ?"  Yellow asked but Austin shook his head and pointed at a forest near the canyon.

" Nope, we aren't going to find the Pokémon I want in the canyon."

" There was it."

" Under the canyon."

" ..... "

" ... "

" What ?" Yellow asked incredulously.

[ Cerulean City - Cerulean River ]

[ Abandoned Power Plant ]

Pokemon of the electric type stared on in awe and horror as they saw the sky covered in the abyss of dark clouds as streaks of lightning shot through the abyss illuminating the meeting of two Gods.

The members of Team Rocket were shaking in their boots, scared out of their minds as they stared at the back of the entity known as Mewtwo who bellowed out.

" I am a God, I will live forever. You, on the other hand, will fall."

Mewtwo's words were directed at one of the children of the Avian God of Thunder, Zapdos.

Zapdos's body glowed with ethereal lightning as the Demigod's call was like a switch that caused the dark clouds of the abyss to direct their lightning like a hammer of God judging upon the mortals who claim divinity.

The giant bolt of lightning caused Mewtwo to smile and exclaim.

" I am the great traitor to this world. There must be no other. If I, Mewtwo, want the birds to drop dead from the trees… then the birds will drop dead from the trees. I am God. The earth I pass will see me and tremble."

With a wave of his hand, Mewtwo stopped the entire bolt of lightning falling upon him before turning towards Zapdos who felt an extreme sense of danger engulf him.

" If I, Mewtwo, want the Gods to fall then so shall they." 

Mewtwo's eyes glowed with an azure glue before he threw the bolt of lightning towards Zapdos as if he was mocking him that he would bring the Demigod of thunder, with a bolt of lightning itself.

[ Omake Paragraph ]

Unlike their evolved form of Kingler, a Krabby's joints are quite feeble; it is quite common for their large pincers to break off in battle. The pincers grow back quickly (although the Krabby is somewhat limited in their movement ability in the meantime) and many trainers even harvest them for sale.

It is not a Krabby's natural strength but the design of the pincer which gives them their effectiveness, and they work just as well when operated by a human or attached to machinery. Some are used to crush rocks into powders or break open pokemon like Clamperl or Geodude, while others are used to crush the necks of condemned criminals. Although this is often considered overkill, they are even used in the preparation of food, as nutcrackers, can openers, or simply in a role similar to silverware.

One of the first ritual prohibitions seen in the pokemon world was that of using these pincers on Krabby or Kingler meat, which was thought to anger the gods and disrespect the dead. It has made its way into many religions, but not all: the followers of Groudon and the Regi trio make a habit of eating Krabby whole as a show of contempt towards the sea.
