Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon or Starcraft only a few original characters that borrow heavily from those settings.

Chapter 1

Interesting story I have to tell about one of my trips into an alternate reality. This particular story starts when I dropped from orbit into the forest on the edge of a quaint little town on an unnamed world. Noting the lack of defenses against orbital attack, I commanded three of the Drones that dropped with me to morph into Hatcheries as the start of a Hive Cluster to control Zerg based defenses. Once the rest of the Drones started gathering resources, I walked into the town and entered what looked to be a lab of some sort. "A newcomer huh...I suppose you're here to get a starter Pokemon along with the usual Trainer accessories. My grandson Gary usually handles that stuff nowadays but he's busy at the moment. My name is Professor Oak, what's your name?" An old man greeted me as he entered from a back room.

"Actually, I'm new to this entire world. My name is Chris Ham. I suppose I could start my education by becoming a Trainer though." I reply as I fold my skeletal wings tighter around my torso. Professor Oak apologizes for his mistake and mentions that his vision is starting to fail in his old age. As well, they are currently out of the usual starters of Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle but do have an electric mouse type called Pikachu that reminds him of a Trainer name Ash who had started out with a Pikachu some 20 years ago. "The Pikachu will be fine. Other than a few of the Poke-balls and a simple ID card, you can keep the Trainer gear." I comment as I tuck the six Poke-balls and ID into cracks in my carapace while releasing the Pikachu to walk beside me. The Pikachu tilts it's head at me in curiosity before jumping onto my shoulder with a "Pika".

Just as Professor Oak opens his mouth to probably suggest I take more gear, we both hear a high pitched scream of terror. "That sounded like Rookie Trainer Abby. We should try to help her." The Professor comments as the scream is cut off. The two of us rush to a road conveniently named Route 1 only to be met by a large swarm of hornet type Pokemon with stinger arms. "I'm calling Officer Jenny. She'll be better equipped to handle a Beedrill swarm of this size." He says as the entire swarm starts firing projectiles at us.

"No time. Pikachu, counter those projectiles with your lightning attack." I reply as I pull the Professor out of the way of the Beedrill's attacks. Pikachu instantly follows my suggestion and hits not just the projectiles, but the Beedrill swarm as well with a powerful bolt of electricity that does depressingly little damage to the bug type Pokemon. Beneath the swarm, I catch a glimpse of a young girl in a shredded dress next to a lizard Pokemon with a bulb on it's back. Both the Pokemon and the girl are covered in a strange purple glow that brings to mind poison. Hoping to save the girl who is probably the Trainer Professor Oak and I came out to rescue, I personally attack the Beedrill swarm with a Psionic Storm. Noticing that many of the Beedrill are stunned by the storm, and thinking they could be useful on this world, I throw one of my spare Poke-balls at a stunned Beedrill and notice that the bug type Pokemon is captured without any further problems.

"Officer Jenny reporting in. What happened here?" A police woman says as she rides up on a motorcycle. Professor Oak fills in Officer Jenny while treating the bulb Pokemon's injuries and illness. When he attempts to treat Rookie Trainer Abby however, none of the medications work. The two then discuss various options for how to save Abby's life from the severe poisoning.

"I have an idea that will work if we act fast. We just need to head into the forest a short distance while the base is being set-up." I suggest, thinking of my Hive Cluster.
