Pokemon: My Strange Pokemons

The Divine Dragon Evolution System?

What is this?

Wait, the real issue is—why is there a voice echoing in my head?!

Having never read a novel or heard of systems, Feebas was instantly overwhelmed with fear and confusion.

Just moments ago, it had entered the Poké Ball of its ideal trainer, envisioning a bright future ahead. Why did things suddenly take such a bizarre turn?

Could something dirty have gotten into my head?!

Feebas tried speaking in its mind. "W-Who are you?!"

[Greetings, dear host! I am the Divine Dragon Evolution System, here to help you evolve into a supreme being capable of taking on Kyogre and Groudon with ease!]

Feebas was even more baffled. Kyogre? Groudon? It had never heard of those names before.

"Stronger than the strongest Gyarados in our waters?"

The voice of the so-called system paused briefly before replying.

[I am unsure of how strong this 'Gyarados King' is, but even the mightiest Gyarados is nothing more than a Caterpie before your fully evolved form.]

"Caterpie? What's that?" Feebas was puzzled again. There were no Caterpie underwater, making this yet another gap in its knowledge.

[In short, with my assistance, you will become a being that all Pokémon will marvel at and bow to!]

Feebas froze. Wait, this sounds familiar... didn't Ethan say something like this before capturing me?

So this was it—what Ethan meant when he said there was no need for a Prism Scale to grow stronger!

This "system" must be a gift from Ethan!

"I understand now. Let's do our best together! By the way, what can you do, System?"

Finally hearing a proper question, the system eagerly responded.

[Ding! The first phase of the system has been activated. Please select your evolution template!]

Nidhogg, the Despair Black Dragon: A black dragon that resides at the roots of the World Tree, embodying despair and calamity. Legend says when it gnaws the roots away, the tree will wither, and the world will descend into chaos and destruction.

"Why would I destroy the world? That's a bad dragon. I don't want to be that!"

Leviathan, the Chaos Dragon: A mythical creature said to be the first lifeform created by gods in a certain world. Its colossal body blocks out the sun, and a single movement could destroy the world.

"Can't you offer something more normal? I don't want to destroy the world!"

Ysera, the Green Dragon Queen: The guardian of the Emerald Dream, she is a protector of life and the soul of the world, wielding the power of nature.

"Hm, this sounds good... but it says 'Queen'? I'm a male Feebas! Never mind. Do you have anything else?"

Zhulong, the Creator Dragon: A legendary deity from another world, its body spans a thousand miles. It brings day by opening its eyes and night by closing them. In its mouth, it holds an eternal flame capable of incinerating everything in an instant.

"A thousand miles?! Ethan wouldn't even be visible next to me! This one's not good either."

Yinglong, the God of Rivers: One of the strongest beings in an ancient world, Yinglong is the Dragon of War, capable of summoning storms and creating rivers with a sweep of its tail.

Feebas, who had been dismissing options so far, was finally moved. A god of rivers? That suits me perfectly!

"I've decided! I'll choose Yinglong!"

[Host has completed template selection. Adapting to the Pokémon world: Yinglong's attributes will be Water and Dragon. Growth potential cap: 1000. Ultimate ability: Primordial Sea.]

[Phase Two activated. Congratulations, host, on receiving a starter gift pack: one Supreme Mystic Water and one White Jade Orb.]

[Yinglong template loaded. Current evolution progress: 0%. Keep striving, host!]

Meanwhile, Ethan had no idea what kind of drama was unfolding inside the Poké Ball. He was still basking in the joy of capturing his dream Pokémon.

Ethan never cared about a Pokémon's potential—whether high or low, it didn't matter to him.

His choice to capture Pokémon was purely based on instinct. Otherwise, he wouldn't have turned down Aurora's offer of a high-potential Feebas.

After all, Ethan's ultimate goal was to live the life of a laid-back, carefree Pokémon center owner.

Unbeknownst to him, the Feebas he had just captured now had unimaginable potential due to some mysterious intervention.

...

By the next morning, Ethan had prepared a proper welcome gift: a massive aquarium delivered to his living room by Silph's logistics team.

Feebas happily swam in its new home. In Sylphmere Lake, not a single stream belongs solely to me. But here... I can finally rise from obscurity.

Eevee, the elder of the household, watched the newcomer with interest, already planning how to teach it the rules of their family.
