Fairy
.
OR Wherein Ralts lives up to her Fairy-typing by playing the Exposition Fairy (though hopefully a lot less annoying) and the rest of Team Tsurin stumble into this mess- it's all Itachi's fault though.

Omake - Ralts;
You're far from home, young one.
Ralts shifted under the Legendry's gaze. Yes but I had a question I don't think anyone but a Legendry could answer. I don't really know where anyone else is but after last year-...
Yes. Lugia winced at the reminder of how much work had came up with the whole debacle. Your question then?
She sat on the sand, far enough from the other's head that the Legendary didn't go cross-eyed trying to look at her. Well, it's about my trainer…
I don't know how this happened. Lugia admitted after a lengthy silence when the smaller psychic-type finished her tale. I'll ask around though. Now, about your idea on a telepathic data pack-...
It wasn't something he was deliberately hiding from his team, they were his team it wasn't as if he could keep them ignorant especially when he gave Tenzo the ninken contract (who now had a cute little pug ninken named Pakkun), but it also wasn't something that he'd sat down and explained to them. Part of that was because he really didn't want to explain about another world with super-powered creatures in place of animals that were apparently closely related enough to breed together regardless of how much it should not work .
But, admittedly, another part of it was pride- he had set out to get a ninken pack and that he, someone commonly referred to as a genius, had failed to do that wasn't something he really wanted to acknowledge.
It was Itachi who eventually brought it up while they, Team Tsurin (Tatsu-U-Tora-Inu) , were invading Tenzo's new home- his former apartment apparently not meeting his ninken's standards.
"I have Crow Summons." Itachi said, Kakashi rolled his eyes when Shisui said a quip about the irony given he was a hare. "That bird you came on to the hospital? Not a summon."
"It is." He said, the little eleven year old opened his mouth to argue but he continued. "It's just not a normal summon." He paused, because that really didn't explain much, "Summons live in the Summon World, mine don't . They live in an entirely different world called the Pokémon World."
"They?" Tenzo, whom was trying to be a good host for all they had appeared uninvited, asked. "More then that bird?"
Kakashi reached over to snatch two dango sticks before leaving the Uchiha to fight over who got how much, "So far? An electric horse-thing, a telepathic human-ish creature, a skeletal scythe fish-thing and the bird."
"That…" Shisui, one hand pushing against his cousin's head while the other held five dango sticks, paused then continued. "Doesn't sound like one species."
Like real summons are supposed to be . Wasn't said but was heard all the same and the Uchiha twitched at what he'd implied- Itachi, good shinobi he was, took the opportunity to snatch the sticks from his older cousin.
Kakashi nodded though, because it was a thought that had came to him. "According to Ralts- the telepath- they are all the same species. They're all 'Pokémon' then fall into subcategories by type- which are a bit like different affinities- that are then broken into subdivisions of, well, species- or race? It's a bit like different races for humans since they look different but can still breed together whether they're a bird or cat- apparently."
"That makes no sense." Itachi told him bluntly.
And he shrugged because he agreed, especially since regardless of how breeding should have been the child looked exactly like one of the parents, but so far it had been useful.
"So," Shisui said, snatching the last stick under his cousin's glare. "Do we get to meet one of them, then?"
Tenzo, taking a glance at his new dining room, acquired a bit of a wide-eyed expression. "Um."
"Don't worry about it." Kakashi told the fourteen year old as he stood. "I know how to get one that can fit. I think."
"You think!? " the teen squawked.
Kakashi ignored it as he went through the hand signs, focusing on something who could fit and talk , his hand slammed onto the floor and he immediately backed up as smoke appeared.
"Raa?" it said in a voice he thought might have been female, the smoke cleared and then Ralts was suddenly there , arms wrapping around his leg. Kakashi!
He looked at the little telepath, feeling oddly guilty about how excited she(?) was when he hadn't been intending to ever see her(?) again after the last time, and blinked. "Why do you have a bag?"
Oh! Ralts let go to start sifting through the bag, pulling out a red-black-blue square thing. It's a Pokédex, Kalos-style since it's the smallest, it's also a National Pokédex instead of a Regional one- Professor Oak thought it'd be a good idea since we didn't know if you were only pulling Pokémon from a single region or all over. Would have gone with Alola but didn't want to chance that the Rotom wouldn't be able to stay.
"And what's a Pokédex?" Shisui butted in, suddenly crouched in front of the little telepath.
"Ral!" Ralts squeaked, disappearing before suddenly reappearing behind him, clutching his leg as she hid.
Kakashi patted her head, it apparently was hair rather then a helmet. "Don't worry, Shisui's an idiot but a harmless one."
"Oi." the Uchiha protested, standing. "I'll have you know I'm positively lethal ."
Itachi took an offered cup of tea, saying in a dry tone, "We can tell."
The fifteen year old eyed his cousin suspiciously and Kakashi interrupted before it could degrade into something involving toddler toy-theft. "What is a Pokédex?"
Oh, um. Ralts seemed to flounder before gathering herself and stepping away to let him look at her and the little square-thing. It's an encyclopedia of Pokémon. Usually they're restricted to the different regions and the Pokémon found there but it wasn't, um, feasible to bring 4+ Pokédex for you and have you guess which Pokémon belongs to which region- hence the National Pokédex which includes Pokémon from each region.
"And how do I use it?" He pressed, taking the square when offered.
All you have to do, Ralts told him. Is open it and point it at the Pokémon for it to scan said Pokémon and tell you about it. Or you can say the name of a Pokémon you know to learn more about it. Or you can go through the list of Pokémon manually. When you use it to scan a Pokémon, you can seek more information by pressing the green button that'll appear on the screen.
"More information?" Itachi butted in politely.
Ralts eyed the youngest but answered when a glance at Kakashi showed him also waiting on an answer. Ordinarily, it will just have the name of the Pokémon with about a one sentence tidbit of information. Watch, try it.
The square opened into a rectangle easily and a barely there blue-tinted beam shot out at Ralts, twin hisses had him glancing to see that the Uchiha were deactivating their Sharingan but he couldn't ask as a female voice said, Ralts, the Feeling Pokémon. It has the ability to sense the emotions of people and Pokémon using the horns on its head, if its horns capture the warm feelings of people or Pokémon then its body warms up slightly- it hides if it senses hostility.
This Ralts is FEMALE. The voice said once he pushed the green circle on the blue screen. It knows twenty moves including CONFUSION, HEAL PULSE, TRICK, LIGHT SCREEN and REST. It has a CALM nature and no abilities- it is level 30.
"Huh," Shisui said, blinking- Kakashi made a low noise of agreement.
Omake - Ralts;
Your back, the legendary noted. How'd it go?
Well? Though my trainer gradually grew quieter- felt stiller?- as things went on... Ralts wondered a bit bemused then with more enthusiasm. I met his friends though! They're all younger then him...
