A/N: Hello! Aliahra here, I hope Gira doesn't mind me stealing his speech for these parts. Anyway, thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy this story. It was fun to write and research! I never knew Darcy meant Dark One until I wrote this, I named the Pokémon after a person.

The female trainer from Black and White is the one who looks most similar to me, although that's probably because she has long brown hair like I do. So if you want to, use her appearance as a basis for me. Also, this is technically a Self-Insert, sorry if you do not like it.

Whenever New Americana by Halsey plays, I get the urge to write this story. I just hope that's a good thing.

WARNING: Mentions of abandonment, minor gender confusion, and the fighting mechanics might be confusing, sorry. Also, just know they were all surprised and my luck is crazy on how I can easily beat opponents stronger than me in Pokémon, as in I have a level 45 and they have a level 62 and I somehow still get One-Hit KO's. You'll know why I say this later.

Let's begin the Story!

Chapter 1: Am I Going Crazy?

Waking up in a place you know you didn't fall asleep in is terrifying. I know for certain that I didn't fall asleep on the beach of an island, if you could call it that. It was more of a strip of sand in the sea. Like in Pirates of the Caribbean: Worlds End, where they traded Will for Jack.

I couldn't be there, right?

Do not worry; we are not in that world. This world seems to be covered mostly by ocean but it still has pirates.

A world mostly covered by ocean and has pirates. If I had not been reading a volume of that series yesterday than it may have taken me longer to answer, but as I had, it was easily my first guess. Not to mention the fact that I don't know that many worlds covered by ocean. "Oh, so we're in One Piece?"

Maybe. I would wait until something distinctive comes along though.

Then it occurred to me. I am alone. How is it that I am talking with someone yet there is no one present?

We are in your head.

"WHAT? Okay, that is strange… am I going crazy? I'm going crazy aren't I?"

No, you are not, Aliahra. And again do not worry; you are still sane, although that might be debatable.

"Should I really be listening to the voice in my head? You could be lying." Raising a suspicious eyebrow.

I am not lying also; there is more than one voice in your head. The rest are here too, all six of us.

"Wait, so there are more of you?" I face palm. "What the hell, talking to you will be more enjoyable than nothing. Who are you guys anyway? I don't know but I think it would be nice to know your names."

I am Giratina, you caught me in the Distortion World, remember? It feels weird to be confined in a human body and actually able to communicate with you but it's nice. The others are currently sleeping, but Zhaleh is likely to wake up soon, with all the water and everything.

I stare at nothing in shock. Only able to register what the deep voice, Giratina, was saying because it was in my head. I have Giratina and apparently Zhaleh in my head. If that's true then I'm likely to have Terra, Darcy, Nico and Niran in my head as well.

I have my entire party from Pokémon Platinum in my head. Damn, I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

Since you people don't know who and what I'm talking about, let me elaborate. Also I'm putting them in order of how I got them.

Terra is a Torterra; he was my starting Pokémon and is shy and a little finicky. Like most of my party, he has a name that suggests that he could be of the opposite gender. Trust me, this trend was not intentional.

Darcy is a Lucario; I got him from my Pokémon Pearl game and I traded him over so I wouldn't have the same team. Also, so I can follow my accidental trend and always have a traded Pokémon in my main party. He's laidback and he likes to fight, he's my second fastest Pokémon.

Nico, short for Nico Robin, is my only female Pokémon and is a Staraptor. She's relaxed and mischievous, and is my third fastest Pokémon. Nico is a boy's name and I call her that so it would follow my accidental trend.

Niran is my Rapidash; he's my fastest Pokémon and has a female name. Unlike my other two Rapidashes in my Pearl and Diamond games, he isn't my traded Pokémon. He's energetic and loves to boast. He also has a tendency to react without thinking.

Zhaleh is my Vaporeon that, even though I shouldn't, I still sometimes mistake for the opposite gender, the female name and mermaid likeness is the reason. He's probably my strongest Pokémon if you had them face off with each other. He's relaxed and strong willed.

Giratina is, obviously, Giratina, since Legendaries are already one of a kind; I usually never give them nicknames. Even though Giratina has no gender, I can't help but think of him as a him most of the time. He is bold and highly curious, and even though he is a legendary, I often see him as my weakest Pokémon.

But then again, there was that time when I had to verse that trainer who took Terra, Nico and Zhaleh and I only had Gira and the other two useless Pokemon from the other trainer. I managed to beat Nico with Thunderbolt and Terra with enough hits before Zhaleh came and used Ice Beam. That move can deal a lot of damage even without the matching type boost.

He has a stupid high Special Attack, Special Defence and HP stat. You cannot blame me! Protested said Dragon Pokémon.

"Sorry. Wait a second; I don't have to talk out loud do I? Why didn't you tell me earlier? That was less quotation marks I would have had to type!"

Then I realized I was still doing them. I face palm again.

Okay, let's look at the situation I'm in. I have no food or water. I'm on a deserted barren Island thing and I have my Pokémon in my head. Good or Bad?

I say good. I get to talk with my trainer after all, couldn't do that before. Spoke a voice. Wait, did it change gender halfway through?

That's because you keep forgetting I'm a guy! But anyway, that's enough of a clue for who I am.

Zhaleh, right? I'll get your gender set one day!

You say that now… Anyway, just saying can we go into the water? I want to show you something. Also, don't freak out. Asks the newly identified voice.

Because of the fact that I somehow trust my Pokémon, I did as he asked. I waded into the water until it was waist height, but it took a while since being six feet means long legs.

Okay, please don't freak out.

And then he proceeded to freak me out by making my body disappear and I fell into the ocean. I could actually still feel my body, which was freaky since I also felt like I was much smaller and my body wasn't human. I had no hands and four legs now. It feels so weird!

I tried to look down at myself but I could only see a distortion in the water, like those invisibility cloaks in Halo. I also notice that I was still breathing and my eyes weren't stinging from the salt water.

"Cool, huh." I feel my mouth move and I hear Zhaleh's voice come out.

I feel my body start moving against my will and I'm speeding through the sea. Suddenly I leap out of the water, over a wave and I catch sight of my reflection before I splash back into the water and continue swimming on with no destination in mind.

I had looked like a Vaporeon. This was Zhaleh's body. So I could guess who was in control of my, our?, actions now.

Woohoo! Again Zhaleh!

I quickly discover I have no control over the fine movements of this body, even though I can control direction and when to launch attacks. Like Surf for example. That was fun while it lasted.

I think we have a problem.

What is it? Wait; please tell me this is not permanent! As cool as it would be to be a Vaporeon, I want to be able to live in civilisation as well.

Don't worry, we can change back easily. But I can tell what Gira means, I don't have access to Ice Beam, Shadow Ball or Brine.

Nor do I remember Thunderbolt or Shadow Claw, and let us not mention the fact all of us are level 10. Except me of course, I am Level 45 now.

What?

They're Level 10? But I didn't have Zhaleh or Giratina at that level, nor Niran for that matter. And Zhaleh would have still been an Eevee at the time, and unable to learn Surf. What?

I don't know why but I think I may be evolved due to the use of the Water Stone, though all the others are their first evolvements. I'm surprised that Darcy is only a Riolu, don't they evolve after befriending their trainer and then levelling up at day time?

Technically, Darcy unlevelled the level that evolved him. I do not know whether he will evolve at Lv 11 or at Lv 23 like last time.

I'm hoping for 11, that'll make it much easier for me. Hopefully I won't have to go through his rebellious phase again.

Nah, don'tcha worry Aliahra. I respect ya too much now anyway. We may have not reached and defeated the Elite Four yet, but we all know that it's all Zhaleh's fault. A new voice who I could easily tell was Darcy's claimed.

Shut up Darcy, it's not my fault! Of course, Zhaleh wouldn't let an insult go.

You're our Water- type, yet ya won't learn Waterfall so we can reach it, Princess.

Do not call me 'Princess' and I'm a Special Attacker you Brute! My weakest stat is my Attack!

I wasn't going to mention this but Zhaleh is actually my second slowest Pokémon (Terra is just four stat points behind him), and her- sorry, his real lowest stat is speed. Also I just think it's too hard to have Zhaleh switch Brine for Waterfall then find a Move Reminder afterwards. Not to mention Pokémon Sun came out around that time so I just stopped playing it.

Don't tell them though.

I heard. Giratina said.

Don't tell the others then.

You are not even going to apologise?

I thought it was implied, but okay. I am sorry. Still you won't tell the others right? And I can still hear Darcy and Zhaleh arguing so I know they didn't hear, they'd have reacted.

Hmph, fine. Just promise we will beat the Elite Four and the Champion soon.

If I can find their equivalent here, I'll face them for you all, promise.

I'M A TURTWIG! NOOOO! And wait, how do I use Earthquake, Strength and Giga Drain again? And why can I remember how to use Withdraw, Tackle and Absorb… I really did not need to guess the owner, although I was surprised at his volume.

Nice to see you are awake Terra. And what's with that yelling? I thought you were the quiet type.

I devolved and I can't remember how of use my two strongest moves. I'm allowed to panic in those situations right?

I think he also stole our reactions. Came a female's voice. Definitely Nico's.

Nico's right there. Also Aliahra, if you think this is fast, just wait until it's my turn. Even as a Ponyta I've still got my speed! The process of elimination just supported my guess at that voice's owner. Niran practically stated who he was with his species.

I smile, and so does Zhaleh's body. Seems the team is together again, and wait a second. Did Terra remember his old moves and not the ones he had at Lv 51. I think that was his level when I stopped playing.

I know Tackle, Withdraw, Absorb and Razor Leaf. And why can't you remember my old Level?

Umm…

I've got Quick Attack, Detect, Foresight and Drain Punch. Which is strange since wasn't this the time when you made the mistake with my moves?

I take the opportunity and affirm Darcy's observation. Ignoring Terra for the moment because I do not want to tell them I had abandoned them for four months and never gave them a second thought. I know, I'm a horrible trainer.

What moves does everyone know?

I have Quick Attack, Fly, Wing Attack, and Growl. Not too bad if I say so, got two from my old set.

Got Poison Jab, Ember, Quick Attack and Tail Whip. I like that I have Poison Jab but I miss Flamethrower already.

Surf, Sand-Attack, Helping Hand and Tackle. Why do I have only one good move?! I can't even use two of them!

I remember Ominous Wind, Dragon Claw, Shadow Force and Scary Face. I have a feeling you will not be able to transform into me until everyone else reaches my level though.

We'd be way overpowered if we had you at 35 Levels higher than the rest of them, Giratina. Okay, it seems like everyone has a move from their old level, excluding Darcy. I can't remember which levels you can change a move nor can I remember which levels you all evolve. So I'm going in blind here. Zhaleh, any sight of land?

No, but I am getting tired. Nico, can we switch at my next jump?

Sure, just give me a second. Said the bird.

We leapt clean out of the water and I could feel my body shift. Then I was gaining height, soaring well above the waves. My, or I guess Nico's, reflection affirmed I was a Starly. Internally I cooed, she was so fluffy! I talked to my team a bit more, refraining from any mention my abandonment, while keeping an eye out for a place with people. Unfortunately, nothing came into sight and Nico had to hand over the reins to Zhaleh again when she got tired.

Just before Zhaleh needed a break again we caught sight of the hull of a ship and none of us could be bothered to check if it was a Pirate, Marine or Civilian vessel before leaping aboard and landing in a sleeping person's lap.

The person's eyes shot open and we were tossed off his lap. He drew his sword and held it threateningly at us. "What the hell? What's this weird fish thing?"

It wasn't nice being tossed off, Zhaleh gained a little damage. Most of us were tired, and we didn't want to fight at the moment but this green haired man with a white sword challenged Zhaleh with that insult and we were determined to rise to the challenge. Besides, one is never allowed to run from a trainer battle.

Sand-Attack! (14/15) Zhaleh kicked up some sand from somewhere into the man's eyes and waited for his reaction.

He swung his sword and Zhaleh dodged, taking the opportunity to use Tackle! (34/35) Not Very Effective. I think he only lost one HP. So, Rock-, Steel-, or something else Normal isn't effective against at all. I also forgot Zhaleh has a bad Attack Stat.

The man swung again and in my distraction, I didn't get Zhaleh out in time. A fifth of Zhaleh's health disappeared. Either the man must be a much higher level or he has a high Attack stat.

Probably both as I observe the health bar for my opponent in the right hand corner of my vision.

Roronoa Zoro Lv 16 it says.

I really shouldn't have used Surf twice earlier, its Zhaleh's only Special Attacking move at the moment.

The Man swings his sheathed sword again and I manage to get Zhaleh out in time. Damn, his attacks can cause flinches. I need to pull out the big gun now.

Surf! (8/10) With our back to the water, I get to see the Man's reaction to the wall of water that swells behind us. I can't help but smirk. Zhaleh jumps back onto the wave's crest and we ride it into the Man, taking out a large chunk of his health, but not nearly enough.

Zhaleh gets hit with an unsheathed sword this time and we lose a quarter of our health, but I don't let it flinch us. Calling up another Surf! (7/10) we slam into the Man again, taking out another chunk of health.

I hear cheering and angry shouts in the background, off the battlefield, and we get hit. I swear that sword mean he's Steel- type or something. I resist the urge to call on Niran or Darcy and push on with Zhaleh, I miss with another Surf! (6/10).

I see an angry expression form on the Man's face and Zhaleh has enough time to Surf! (5/10) into him again, dropping his health into the yellow. He puts both hand on the hilt of the blade, instincts from years of playing Pokémon tell me that if I let Zhaleh get hit with that sword, he will faint. Good thing I'm great when playing as the underdog by a couple of levels. Sorry if this offends anyone but yes for crazy weird luck! (Also for being Australian, sorry).

Zhaleh uses Sand-Attack! (13/15) again and easily dances away from the next attack. A critical Surf! (4/10) and the Man's health finally reaches red.

Whoever lands an attack next wins. And both sides know it. Barely evading the incoming blade Zhaleh uses Surf! (3/10) one last time and it lands. Slamming the Man into the mast of the ship and into unconsciousness.

However, I barely get a chance to rest when a message pops across my vision.

Zhaleh grew to Lv 11!

The Straw Hat Pirates are going to send out Sanji. Do you want to switch Pokémon or Keep Battling?

Without thinking I ask Nico to come out and I feel a shift as Nico's body switches for Zhaleh's.

We turned to face the new threat and I spot the Sanji Lv 16. Mentally cursing, I hope that this blond man isn't very fast and doesn't have a good Defence Stat. Looking at how many times I can use a move, I noticed Fly was already missing a Power Point.

Remember that Nico did use Fly outside of Battle. I do not know why it is different but it seems to be a consequence of this world.

Barely taking on what Gira said, I use Fly! (13/15) anyway and rejoice as I move first. I feel Nico's defences fall as the Blond Leers up at us. Which I found weird, if anything it raised mine. Nico dives down and we slam into the Blond, taking out just over a third of his health. The message Super effective! reveals to me that this Blond is either Grass-, Bug-, or Fighting- type, most likely Fighting.

A Jump Kick lands into Nico and takes out nearly half her health. Damn a high Attack Stat, Nico unleashes a Wing Attack! (34/35) and takes out a third of his remaining health. Nico was always a sweeper, she hits hard and fast but has barely any defences. Blond tries to attack but I manage to get Nico out of the way.

A Fly! (12/15) takes Nico out of harms way and then deals out a large chunk of health on the Blond. The first of a Double Kick hits and a third of Nico's remaining health disappears, bring her into the yellow. A Wing Attack! (33/35) later and the Blond is in the red.

The first two of a Triple Kick land and Nico is suddenly in the red. I don't think. A Quick Attack! (29/30) later and the Blond is out.

Nico grew to Lv11!

The Straw Hat Pirates lost. You get 1,600 Beri for your victory.

Huh, so I am in the One Piece universe. Well, I'm going to say this now.

What just happened? Did I just fight Zoro and Sanji and did I somehow win? What is that text I see floating and where is this money it says I get?!

You just won our first battle in this world. Those are the names of the people you fought. Your subconscious seems to be able to make a connection in this world and how you perceive the Pokémon world. I guess it is to make it easier for you. As for the money, it is probably in the bag your human form has.

Bag? I had a bag?

Yes, it was empty and hung over your shoulder.

Oh, okay, thanks Giratina. What happens now?

Before Giratina could answer, two hands grabbed Nico's body and we were pulled into a boy with a straw hat's chest. I give you three guesses, not that you should really need two of them.

"So cool! You were some fish thing and you could make waves and you took down Zoro! Then you turned into a bird and took down Sanji! Join my crew!"

I unfortunately couldn't grace the Monkey D. Luffy with an answer and Nico had to step in for me.

"That fish thing was Zhaleh, a Vaporeon. And I'm a Starly, call me Nico. Sorry but Aliahra can't talk to you at the moment, she's in shock for some reason."

"YOU CAN TALK!" The unified shout pulled me back into focus, but Nico answered for me anyway.

"Yes, and Aliahra can answer your questions now."

I felt my body shift painlessly back into my own human one and was met with wide eyes and sparkles. Now that was creepy.

"Umm, hey?" was my dignified response.

Groaning alerted me to Zoro's and Sanji's revival and I could see Zoro looking around and Sanji's eye on me.

"Where's that fish thing gone?! And who are you?" It seems Zoro caught sight of me. Sanji tried to kick Zoro and shouted at him for his behaviour but he dodged and glared at Sanji.

"I'm Aliahra, and that fish thing is my Vaporeon, Zhaleh. Sh- He isn't here at the moment." I told the group, then I realised what that sounded like. "Still alive, so don't make any sort of jumps to conclusions, okay!"

Sanji turned to face me, polite but guarded. "So after it knocked me out, I'm guessing this Zhaleh flew off?"

I smiled at him. "The bird is actually a different being, she's a Starly I call Nico. And no, Nico and Zhaleh are still here." I tap my chest to try and convey the message. I continue on for clarification though. "She transformed back into me and now I'm in control again."

The way Sanji's eyes grew wide made me hold back a laugh.

Umm, what's going on?

You'll see Terra in three, two, one.

And directly on time, Sanji reacted.

"I kicked a woman! I'm very sorry my lady, I did not mean to attack you!" His head was bowed and then he shot up again. "What do I need to do to repay you?"

There we go.

He didn't seem to react well to finding out we beat him. Or hit me in general.

That Zoro fellow still hasn't reacted. I want to know how he feels getting beaten by someone weaker.

"It's all right! Thanks to our fight, Nico has gotten stronger. I would have liked to fight again, but I get the feeling you won't now that you know I'm their Trainer." I ready myself for the incoming questions.

"Wait, so you're a Trainer? What's that? And what Devil Fruit did you eat?" Luffy drew my attention back to him and pouted up at me. With me still being in his arms I was hit full force since he is so close. I wonder why he hasn't let go yet? No matter.

While I know I can't give the proper definition of a Pokémon Trainer, I adjust it to fit my situation.

"A Trainer is someone who has the ability to transform into Pokémon. The most they can change into is six. I have five different ones at the moment and I already know who is going to be my sixth." I best not mention Giratina until I can transform into him. "I haven't eaten a Devil Fruit and while I would like to join your crew. You've got to fight the rest of my Pokémon and get their approval first."

I don't mind, I've already gotten stronger from just one fight with them.

Me too! Do you think Zoro and I can battle again after we recover?

"You've got Nico and Zhaleh wanting to join too, but Terra, Darcy and Niran says they'll only join after they each get to battle one of you."

They never said that.

I know, but beating them might get them to level up. They won't complain about that.

We might you know. Niran points out.

Thank you for volunteering to go first Niran!

Wait what?

"Oi Usopp, you want to fight first?" I was surprised Luffy didn't jump up first but okay.

I felt a change overcome my body and then I was in Niran's body.

Usopp Lv14

Quick Attack! (29/30) and I rammed into Usopp's unsuspecting body, dealing a nice amount of damage, and we leapt back.

Usopp whipped out his Pachinko and released a Fire Star that, while not a real move, was still classified as Fire- type and Niran ate it out of the air, letting his mane and tail flare up as his 'Flash Fire' ability worked its magic to strengthen his own fire-type moves. Ember! (24/25) a small ball of fire flew towards Usopp and he leapt out of the way. Damn it and it was powered up from Niran's ability too.

A rotten egg was launched at Niran and I made sure to dodge, not wanting to know the effects. Poison Jab! (19/20) a massive amount of damage was inflicted taking Usopp down into the yellow zone.

Then I remembered that Poison Jab had the possibility of poisoning the target and refrained from using it again, even after a stone flew into Niran's side, somehow classifying itself as Rock Throw, and dealing its own fair amount of damage as a Super Effective!. Taking out over a third of Niran's health, yay he doesn't have high stats. I find myself glad the Straw Hat Pirates are not too strong yet. This is probably still the East Blue. The lack of any Grand Line characters just supported this.

An Ember! (23/25) landed and inflicted a Burn on Usopp, reducing his attack stat and bringing down the damage of another Rock Throw to a quarter of Niran's health. Thank goodness that Burns also decrease the Attack Stat. A Quick Attack! (28/30) later and Usopp was out.

The Straw Hat Pirates are going to send out Nami. Do you want to switch Pokémon or Keep Battling?

I scowled as I noticed Niran's experience bar was nearly filled but I let Darcy take control, not wanting to be beaten by Nami before her power up.

My turn now!

Nami Lv 14

Damn it that level won't give me enough Exp. No wait! Traded Pokémon advantages, more Exp. Yay!

We lead with a Quick Attack! (29/30) and I find out that Nami doesn't have a good defence. A fifth of her health is gone and Darcy refuses to move and let's himself get hit with a Pound from Nami's staff, discovering Nami has a decent attack, although I believe she is holding back. Remember that her punch can take out the Monster Trio after all.

Darcy! What are you doing?

Sorry, but it's a given I'm gonna win. She's obviously a Normal- Type and she has no good Attack or Defence. I'm also fasta than her and I 'ave a betta move set.

Traded Pokémon disadvantages, they never listen to you when you want them to.

I'll listen after I evolve, how 'bout that?

Fine.

I know a battle is not the time to argue so I leave it for later. I take a back seat as Darcy lets his health fall down into the yellow by doing nothing and confusing everyone, Nami actually hit herself at one point so it was an actual confusion, before unleashing a Drain Punch! (4/5) and restoring his health back into the green again.

Darcy grew to Lv 11! Darcy wants to learn Force Palm, what do you want to forget?

Huh, seems you all can't learn more than four moves at a time here too. What do you say Darcy?

I have no need for Foresight; I want to know Force Palm again already!

Darcy has forgotten Foresight and learnt Force Palm. The Straw Hat Pirates are going to send out Monkey D. Luffy. Do you want to switch Pokémon or Keep Battling?

Terra, you're up! Make me proud.

I call favouritism. Called out the one I had claimed as the strongest. Is that not a sign of favouritism?

Let's do this Aliahra!

I grin as Darcy's body shifts to Terra's.

Monkey D. Luffy Lv18

I mentally utter a quick prayer. This is Monkey D. Luffy after all.

"Gum Gum Pistol!" struck true and we slid back, a sixth of Terra's health gone. Thank you high defense stat! Razor Leaf! (24/25) Critical, yes! A fifth of Luffy's health disappears. Damn, not much.

"Gum Gum Stamp!" A foot slammed into us and a seventh of our health vanishes. A hasty Withdraw! (39/40) and Terra's defence rises sharply, reducing another Pistol's damage to an eighth of Terra's health. He's in the yellow now.

Absorb! (24/25) brings Luffy into the yellow and replenishes some of Terra's health back to the green. We just manage to dodge a Gum-Gum Bell, or the equivalent of a Head-butt. Another Absorb! (23/25) later and we get hit with a Critical Pistol from Luffy, dropping Terra's health to one third of his total HP.

A Razor Leaf! (23/25) and Luffy's health matches ours. "Gum Gum Whip!" Terra's in the red, hanging on with 1 HP and I don't think as I force Niran to come forward and launch straight into a Quick Attack! (27/30).

It seems switching Pokémon can be done at any time in this world.

Yeah, and I'm thankful for it.

Niran dodges a Pistol and breathes an Ember! (22/25) right at Luffy, taking out half of his remaining health. A grin splits Luffy's face and Niran copies it.

Two hands stretch back and Niran and I take a gamble with a Quick Attack! (26/30) and I thank my lucky stars that Bazooka is classified as a two turn move. Luffy is launched back into the ocean.

"Wahoo! No one can beat me at speed!" Niran shouts while jumping up and down.

Niran grew to Lv 11!

Terra grew to Lv 11!

You've beaten the Straw Hat Pirates. You may now join their crew.

Before Niran could anger someone with his boasting, I switched to Zhaleh and leapt after Luffy. I read the manga so it's not like I'm ignorant about Devil Fruit weaknesses.

Speeding down, we catch Luffy with our mouth and I notice that Zhaleh's health is slowly being restored. Which is good, I hadn't given a thought on how I'm supposed to heal my Pokémon here. Which was very stupid of me. Now I know how to heal Zhaleh at least. Jumping back onto the deck, I become human again and just lay there. I could hear Luffy, Nami and Usopp groaning, meaning that they're okay now.

"Did I really just get beaten by a tiny horse on fire?" Usopp complains.

"I got beaten by some bipedal blue and black dog that did nothing; you have no right to complain!" Nami scowls at Usopp.

"I had a green turtle with a plant growing on it and the fire horse fight me. They were actually pretty strong!" Luffy grinned at them, and then he turned to me. "Oi, now that your partners have all fought will you join now? It'd be so cool to have another Devil Fruit user."

I'll join, and I will beat that rubber human eventually! One day, Terra.

Me too, but I wanna face tougher opponents next time. You will, Darcy.

I already said yes, it'll be fun! Hahaha, okay Nico.

I got two fights from them already! Sign me up. Of course, Niran.

As long as they stop calling me Fish thing, sure. They will, Zhaleh.

I did not get to fight but I do not mind joining them if you want to Aliahra. Thank you, Giratina.

I mentally smile. It seems we're joining guys. No second thoughts?

I speak for everyone when I say I want to see more of this world and beat strong opponents!

"It seems you have a new member, Captain. And just so you know… IT'S NOT A DEVIL FRUIT!"

Coming up Next: Getting Acquainted

I said this in the warning. The Straw Hats were all surprised and my luck is crazy on how I can easily beat opponents stronger than me in Pokémon, as in I have a level 45 and the other trainer have a level 62 and I somehow still get One-Hit KO's. I am not lying about it. Although it bites me back by making it really hard to beat trainers with Pokémon the same level as me.

In case anyone doesn't know here. (I'll have their move sets next time)

Terra (Torterra): "Which way do you prefer to be beaten?"

Darcy (Lucario): "Give me someone I can't beat."

Nico (Staraptor): "Fast, Powerful Attacks that can't miss."

Niran (Rapidash): "You can't beat me at speed!"

Zhaleh (Vaporeon): "I'm the strongest in the team, you've got no chance."

Gira (Giratina): "I am a Legendary, you are going down."
