Chapter 1: A Strange New World...

-[Inside Mt. Pyre - Pokemon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire]-

An hour had past since Twilight and the gang brought the four unconscious Pokemon Trainers to Ponyville's General Hospital, still unsure why these creatures seemed so concerned for the humans that they followed the ponies into Ponyville. Everyone immediately panicked and fled the moment they saw the Tyrantrum, its imposing and frightening appearance, like that of the dinosaur Tyrannosaurus, made them all scream and lock their doors. Fluttershy felt very nervous around the ROCK/DRAGON type, because it gave off an aura of sensation that was too similar to an actual dragon, but Fluttershy gave it the benefit of a doubt when she remembered that the dinosaur-like Pokemon was genuinely concerned for the humans. The Dragonite (which when cleaned was an evergreen color instead of a usual tan-ish orange, meaning it was a Shiny Pokemon, but the ponies don't know that...) made the pegasus nervous as well, but less so because of its almost, 'cartoonish' appearance, making the Dragon Pokemon look very harmless and gentle.

Applejack rubbed her hooves, like one would when worried, and said, "Y'all feel that, I feel so...nervous...Like something really horrible is going to happen..."

What Applejack was actually feeling was the Gardevoir's feelings of worry and fear being channeled, unintentionally, by her psychic powers throughout the room. Her mate, Gallade, noticed the ponies unknowingly feeling what she is feeling, and placed a hand on her shoulder. Twilight looked up and saw the worried PSYCHIC/FAIRY type calm down and that same feeling that Applejack pointed out, faded. She had a suspicion that the green and white, humanoid looking creature must have been the source of that dreading feeling they all felt in the room.

Applejack felt the change and said aloud, "Whoa! What just happened? Did the room suddenly change?"

Rainbow Dash shuddered and replied, "Yeesh! I felt that drastic drop too, that feels WAY too weird for me..."

Pinkie was too excited to notice and was busy asking the Aura Pokemon, Lucario, a barrage of questions, much to the poor Pokemon's sake.

"...What's your favorite color? What are those things at the back of your head?" Pinkie continued on as the FIGHTING/STEEL type closed his eyes, tuning out all distractions to meditate, as his trainer taught him to do to calm himself.

Twilight decided to check on the humans, thinking her knowledge on human anatomy from her visit to Canterlot High might help the doctors check their vitals, or look for any kind of problem they might not know about or can operate on a human, let alone four of them. She insisted when the nurses tried to stop her, using her position as a princess and the fact she knew the anatomy of the creatures currently being operated on. They reluctantly agreed, and Twilight managed to inform the doctors about what they needed to know about the humans they were giving medical attention.

-[Indigo Plateau - Pokemon HeartGold & SoulSilver]-

Celestia was reading an urgent letter from Twilight, while occasionally looking out the window at the massive cracked hole in the sky. She read the letter as it said;

Dear Princess Celestia,

As I'm sure you have known, there is a giant 'portal' as Pinkie says it could be in the sky, but me and my friends found something even more intriguing than that. We found four humans who are currently getting medical attention, but what was really unusual is that there are a small number of odd creatures that seemed to have been with them. They were following the humans to the hospital, and they seemed really concerned about their safety. I would tell you what these creatures look like, but they're...

Hard to describe...

You should see them when you can, they're that hard to describe...

From,

Your Faithful Student,

Twilight Sparkle

Celestia chuckled to herself as she thought, Oh Twilight, I'm not your teacher anymore in the way you used to be, I guess you need to be remembered when I see these 'creatures' for myself...

Her secretary walked in as Celestia said to her, "Ah! Perfect timing Ms. Raven, how's my schedule for the next week?"

Raven, a little puzzled, answered, "Another visit to Ponyville I presume? Even with that thing in the sky?"

Celestia replied, "My former student made an interesting discovery that I must see with my own eyes..."

Raven then said, "Oh, Princess Twilight Sparkle right? If that's the case, you have, surprisingly, a large amount of free time for two-and-a-half weeks, though I expect it will change very soon concerning that...whatever-it-is, in the sky..."

Celestia laughed a little, saying, "Yeah, I suppose that's to be expected, Luna's still freaking out with the subject and it appears that Discord was not responsible, he admitted that even creating something like that would be too much for even him. Can you make arrangements for Luna to be in charge of Canterlot while I go to Ponyville to she whatever she and her friends discovered?"

Raven answered, "Of course your majesty..."

-[Pokemon Center - Pokemon X & Y]-

After two exhausting hours, the doctors succeeded in treating their patients, and by luck, one of them was waking up. The human in question was Sean, Twilight and her friends came in to formally greet one of the, apparently, first humans to arrive in Equestria. Sean sat himself upright, while groaning and holding his hand to his forehead, he had a terrible headache like an Exploud screeched in his ears, and then a Snorlax sat on his head.

Sean quietly spoke to himself, "Ah jeez, why does my head hurt so much? I really need an aspirin or a benadryl to stop the throbbing pain in my head..."

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a bunch of ponies looking at him, Twilight cleared her throat and began to say, "Hello there sir, my name is..."

She stopped when the human slumped back on the bed with his eyes closed as e muttered loudly, "Okay, weird dream I'm having, not the weirdest, but definitely weird enough, I really hope someone wakes me up..."

Rainbow Dash felt a little offended and shouted, "Hey! We're no dream pal! What we want to..."

Rainbow stopped when a loud click was heard and saw the door opening, and the one opening it, the blue dog-looking Lucario, with its eyes closed and the sensors at the back of its head standing stiff to the sides. As soon as it opened its eyes, the sensors lowered into the position the ponies remembered it, and then it walked to Sean, who was smiling.

Sean then said, "Lucario? Is that you? It is you! I'm so glad your safe pal!"

Sean then grabbed the Aura Pokemon and hugged it somewhat tightly as the Lucario did the same, surprising the ponies...

Twilight uttered in confusion, "L-Lucario?! What's a Lucario?"

Sean was smiling as he patted the Pokemon's back, then it turned into a frown that said on his face, 'wait-a-minute'.

He then said, "Hold up, if your here, then I'm definitely not dreaming..."

Pinkie Pie then said, "Well sure you're not dreaming, so don't be freaking out, because we want to be your bestest friends..."

Sean interrupted the party pony, and said, "Hmm...If I'm being completely honest, this isn't the weirdest thing to happen to me. So...I'm not freaking out because I've seen crazier stuff than a room of talking multicolored, equines...Well, better introduce myself, my name is Sean, and this is one of my partners, Lucario. What are your names, for that matter, I've never seen anything like you folks..."

Lucario said in response while bowing, "Arrrrohhhh..."

The ponies giggled, except for Twilight, who proceeded to introduce herself, "Well, my name is Twilight Sparkle..."

Then the other ponies (and dragon) introduced themselves to Sean,

"My name is Rarity, kind sir..."

"I'm Applejack..."

"The name's Rainbow Dash, fastest flyer in Equestria..."

"Hi, I'm Pinkie Pie!"

"I'm Spike..."

"I-I-I'm F-Fluttershy..."

Sean smirked and chuckled as he said to the timid, "Well-well-well, you certainly live up to the 'shy' in your name..."

Then the group heard a moan coming from one of the other humans, the girl named May, she sat up as well saying groggily,

"Oooo...I'm hurting all over..."

She stopped as she saw Sean, his Lucario, and a bunch of ponies and one dragon looking at her, then asked,

"Sean...Are you seeing this too? 'Cause I don't want to know I'm hallucinating...And, DON'T YOU DARE LIE OR JOKE AROUND WITH ME, MR. POKEMON MASTER!!!"

The ponies felt a little offended (and puzzled with the word 'Pokemon'), until they heard Sean say with a grin on his face, "Aww, but it's so much fun to mess around with you. Like when I put whipped cream on your palm and tickled your nose with a Pidgey feather, boy, our friends got a real kick out of it. Hmm-m-m-m..."

He was holding back laughter with the young trainer's glaring at him, her face was blushing a bright red, and anger and embarrassment clear on her face.

He then said, "Sorry, but to answer your question, we apparently wound up in some other world of sorts. Well, better introduce everyone... May, this is..."

-[Littleroot Town - Pokemon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire]-

Lyra and Barry managed to reach Littleroot Town, the hometown of May and Brendan (And where Sean and Rosa are staying during the Hoenn League), May's mother and father, Norman (the Petalburg City Gym Leader) were bumped into by Barry rushing like a Linoone, and being impatient.

Norman said, "Whoa! Slow down son, you could hurt yourself or someone else...Wait, you're Barry right? Good, I was wondering how my daughter and Birch's boy are doing after you guys went training to..."

Barry interrupted and shouted, "No time to chat! Where's Professor Birch's laboratory! It's an EMERGENCY!!!"

May's mother said, "It's down that way...Wait...Emergency?! What happened to my little girl?"

But it was too late as she saw Barry, pulling Lyra by the arm, running down the direction May's mother pointed to Professor Birch's laboratory. Norman and his wife looked into each other's eyes and proceeded to go to Birch's to find out what happened to their daughter and her friends...

-[Birch Laboratory - Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire]-

Barry burst through the door of Birch's laboratory, making some scientists and police officers jolt in surprise, as Barry impatiently shoved and pushed various people out of the way, saying things like "Out of my way!" or "Move it tubby!" with Lyra apologizing for Barry's actions after he pushes them out of the way. Professor Birch saw the two trainers that were with his son, coming towards him as the police try to subdue Barry and Lyra, mostly Barry.

Professor Birch said to the officers, "No-no, It's quite alright, I know those two, they are with my son, I can vouch for them, what's the matter? I thought you were with my son and the others..."

The officers let Lyra and Barry go, but not before giving Barry handcuffs to keep him from doing, whatever he was doing.

Birch noticed that the young lady from Johto looked very upset, and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so upset?"

May's parents entered as they got to where their old family friend, Professor Birch as he was calming Lyra...

Lyra, with tears streaming from her eyes, answered Birch, "May, Brendan, Rosa, and Sean...They vanished with their Pokemon in some kind of vortex or portal...W-we couldn't reach to them before it closed...behind them..."

Everyone was silent, May's parents worried about the safety of their daughter, Birch then said, "That's terrible to hear, but I believe they're safe and wherever the others went..."

Norman perked up and asked, "What do you mean Birch? By 'others', exactly..."

Birch answered, "Our children, weren't the only ones to have simply vanished, a number of other trainers and professors have also vanished, to where, I have no clue..."

-[Pokemon Center - Pokemon HeartGold & SoulSilver]-

Rosa slowly opened her eyes, and found herself in an empty hospital room of sorts, her head throbbing, like if she got a Beedrill sting on her arm. She lazily looked at her arms, thankfully, no injuries of any kind. Rosa was then greeted by a friendly face she instantly recognized as he tickled her lovingly...

"Dragonblitz? Oh it's so good to see you, you lovable Shiny Dragonite, you..." She said as she petted the different-colored Dragon Pokemon's snout.

Rosa jolted when she heard a familiar voice say, "Well, he stood by your side until you woke up, Sleeping Beauty..."

She uttered, "S-sensei Sean?! Is that you?!"

She turned to see her three friends, Sean, May, and Brendan (whose left arm is in a sling), along with several unfamiliar faces in the shape of creatures that resembled Ponyta. One of them, a pink one suddenly appeared in front of the Unova trainer, like magic with a wide smile on its face.

The pink creature said, "Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie! You must be Rosa, I'm so-so-so-so-so-so-so-so-soooooooo excited to meet you and be friends, now I can throw you all a 'Welcome to Ponyville' party, or maybe it is a 'Welcome to Equestria' party now..."

Pinkie stopped when Rosa had a look of confusion on her face, as she said, "Sensei! What's going on!"

Twilight thought, Sensei? What does that mean? It sounds like an honorific term...

Sean chuckled as he answered, "To put it shortly; Portal... Sucked in... Trapped in cave... Latios lead them here... They helped us free... Took us to this hospital... We're in a different world... Now for introductions, they are; Twilight Sparkle, Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, you already met Pinkie Pie, and Spike...Does that inform you Rosa?"

Rosa, having known her teacher for a while, said, "Alright Sensei...But...Who is that..."

Rosa was pointing to a white pony with a horn and wings, everyone else noticed and everyone (except for the Pokemon and their Trainers) bowed to the alicorn.

Twilight Sparkle then said, "Princess Celestia! This is an unexpected surprise!"

Celestia chuckled and said, "There's no need for that Princess Twilight, I came because I want to see the humans and these creatures you wrote about..."

She looked at the Pokemon Trainers and the Pokemon in the room, and finished, "And I assume they are the humans and creatures, am I correct?"

Sean smirked and said, "You bet we are...And these creatures you call them, are really called Pokemon, your highness."

The ponies and May gasped as Twilight said, "Sean, what do you think you're doing?!"

Celestia chuckled as she said, "There's no need for formalities, I understand if their culture is far different from our own, but I must ask, Sean was it?"

The trainer laughed nervously as he said, "Y-yeah? What is it?"

Celestia cleared her throat as she asked, "Now, Sean, what are these 'Pokemon' you mentioned? Are these creatures here them?"

The Pokemon confirmed in their native tongue, and Brendan said, "They are, Princess... I can tell you have others you want informed as well, right?"

Celestia was a little surprised at Brendan's question, when a voice said, "My, my, my, you figured out that little bit of information from just that question, you're very perceptive aren't you, human boy..."

Then in a flash, a misshapen being appeared, the trainers looked with confusion at the being, many of them thinking that the creature before them was a Pokemon of sorts...

Twilight said with annoyance clear in her voice, "Discord, what are you doing here..."

Discord slumped in disappointment as he said, "Now that was rude, Celestia here invited me, and before you say anything, I am not responsible for that thing in the sky...and I am curious about these Pokemon creatures as well..."

Celestia then said, "Yes, but now I see that this isn't the kind of place to talk about this kind of thing. Why don't we head to Canterlot to talk about these Pokemon, I'm sure my sister, Luna would like to hear this kind of information as well..."

-[Route 101 - Pokemon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire]-

"Are ya' sure you wanna fly on that Latios of your's back, Sean?" Applejack asked the teenage trainer, who mounted on to the back of his Latios, as the others were boarding the Friendship Express.

He replied with a grin, "Though I like riding on trains, I feel as if I should fly, so I can get a bird-eye's view of this place you call 'Equestria', I'd want to explore it sometime in the future. It sounds like a place I want to see whatever secrets it holds inside its land."

Celestia then said to the farmer, "Everyone has a preference of how they do things, you of all ponies know that better than anyone, correct?"

Applejack pulled her hat over her face in embarrassment, knowing how she likes to do things her way...

The train headed for Canterlot as the humans and their Pokemon look out of the train's windows to take in the sights of Equestria, minus the gigantic portal in the sky. Twilight saw Sean and his Latios flying beside the train, performing all sorts of somersaults and corkscrews.

Rainbow scoffed and said, "Phhisssshhh! I can do those kind of tricks..."

Then the brace on Latios suddenly glowed in a bright light, and then Sean said something to Latios then it shot forward like a rocket, the pair almost looked like a shooting star streaking in the sky, with a sparkling trail like stars and a lightning blue color to the trail.

Applejack then said coyly, "Can you do that kind of thing?"

Rainbow, with her jaw dropped at what was in her sight, then replied sheepishly, "Uh, maybe, I don't know..."

-[Indigo Plateau - Pokemon HeartGold & SoulSilver]-

Eventually, they arrived into Canterlot's castle, and after introductions were made for Luna.

Celestia took a deep breath as she asked, "Alright, Sean. Please tell us what are these Pokemon of yours and where you and your friends are from?"

Sean chuckled as he replied, "Well...I'll try to explain it as best as I could..."

To be continued...
