Chapter Text
Day one…
Uzi opened her eyes slowly as her claws reached for N. Last she could remember, she was on her bed sleeping while N and V hung from the ceiling resting. Wait claws? She jolted awake…

Hello, I’m Uzi. This is a story about how *I*, and my friends… or drones I know of, somehow ended up in another universe.
To make a long tragedy short, the planet exploded, robots took over the planet, copper 9, after humans died out, and then I met this dork that I was supposed to kill but ended up befriending. [for context he was a “murder drone”also known as a disassembly drone, which were made to kill us workers.] I introduced him and his “friend” to the workers aaaaannnd…. We woke up here of all places.
Now as an anima fan, I immediately recognized this world as the world of Pokemon… but it was what we were that confused me. We weren’t any already existing Pokemon, but we were, indeed, Pokemon. I was a cat. Why a cat, ask archaeus. N was a dog, of course. V was a raccoon. *Damn it! She still looked cute!* and considering that we were the only ones in the area, I felt like I had more time to think.
(I’ll do a more detailed drawing later, but to get a good idea here you go.)
I noticed N slowly waking up. We were in a cave with moss and grass. It exited to a flowery field, where you could see a city. I got up steadily. We were pretty small. V was still sound, not even flicking. Since I know I’d most likely be the least phased by this, I decided to walk up to N, who was already waking up.
“Hey N. Before you panic, I think we just went to another world.” I nudged his fluffy, puppy like head. “And I think I know what that world is…”
N slowly looked up at me. He opened his eyes then spoke, yawning, “what do you mea-“ he cut himself off seeing my new form. He jumped backwards. “What the!?” He then fell over and looked at his paws. “Why are we? When did we?” He looked at me confused.
I sighed and lended him a paw. “Want to help me break the news to V?”
N nodded at me, still wide eyed. What a dork. He nudged V, who was now a silver and white raccoon with dark pinkish purple accent marks.
V snapped up. “What is it moron? I’m trying to-…” she stopped herself, looking at us. “What the hell happened to use?!” She got on her fore legs looking around. “WHERE’S MY WINGS? MY LONG BEAUTIFUL TAIL! WHAT HAPPENED TO USE?”
I sighed an irritated sigh as I tried and get her to calm down. “We are Pokemon. Creatures with magical abilities. You know how it is.” I felt that was a solid explanation. As solid as I could give that is.
Looking more extensively out the cave, I noticed that the sun was just now rising. The city was far, but not too far. I wasn’t sure if going there was a good idea though…
“Hey Uzi, you good?” N nudged my shoulder.
“I was just thinking. What do you say we go out and explore a little. We will need food since we are organic creatures now.” I grumbled a little bit not liking the idea of being an organic creatures.
“Why of course Uzi! I love doing anything!” N chimed.
“I would rather stay here, thank you.” V stood on her paws sassily. Her nose was in the air.
“Fine then,” I glared at V, “N are you coming?” I turned to him. My tails swayed.
“Of course.” He looked at me then back at V. “V, are you sure you don’t want to come?”
V nodded, as she curled into a ball. N seemed disappointed, but I didn’t know what to do about it. The best we could do is get some food and resources with or with our V.
“Let’s go N. We should get as much as we can done.” I said, rapping my tail around his wrist encouragingly. N started forward, and we both exited the cave.
______________________________
I walked carefully across the field. I consider splitting up, buuuuuut I knew N would most likely die if I left him alone. Can Pokemon die? Not sure but better safe than sorry.
We headed to a river, where I decided to drink some water. “You should drink some too.” I told N, who still seemed a bit dazed. What could he be thinking?
“N are you ok?” I asked him.
“Oh! Um, yes I just- it’s been ages since I’ve felt the sun. Especially one so…” he paused, “just so…” he looked up with a gaze that told me he most likely forgot what the sun even was. “It looks just like the one earth orbited.” He finally finished.
I sat next to him leaning against his white and golden fur. I put my midnight black, white tipped paw, on his. “To be honest, I’ve never seen plants or the sun before. At least not like earths. I always wonder what smells were like. To feel the grass beneath me.” I closed my eyes as the river gently rushed in-front of us. After a moment I finally opened my eyes and looked at N, who was now looking at me with a gentle, neutral expression. Yet he still seemed to have a slight smile.
I pulled my paw away. “Ah, sorry. I was just thinking about the animas I’d watch and my curiosity towards what earth could even look like. Of course it not like I actually care.” I turned my head away no wanting him to notice my blush.
“No no it’s ok. I’m glad you get to see, at least something similar to earth. Despite how horrible things can be, it always held so much beauty.” N said as he stood and walked into the gentle water. “It feels so nice.” He then turned to me, now standing in the shallow river. “Do you think… that you could tell me about what you know of this world?”
I nodded and let out a sigh. “If I don’t want you to die out here, I probably should. Though doesn’t mean I feel like it.” I then took a moment to think, “first we need to figure out how to use our powers. We can only learn four at a time, so pick carefully. I’ll tell you which ones do what and stuff.”
“Powers? Like magic?” N tilted his head. “This really is an isekai 異世界!” His tone got excited. “What kind of powers can we use? I always wanted to try plant magic like in the anime’s.”
“Please, we watched Naruto, and Pokemon black and white like once, and you already act like a weeb.” I shook my head putting a paw to it.
N suddenly gasped, “Do you think we could use magic like in my little pony?” His eyes sparkled, almost in a child like, cute way.
“N, this is Pokemon, not my little pony. You can only pick a select move set. And also it depends on your typing.” I then realized I didn’t even know what type we were. I attempted some basic moves. Tackle….. no. Growl? Nota. Maybe-
I let out a loud screech, stunning N.
“What was that?” N said in shock. “I feel slightly weaker than last time.”
“I used screech. It lowers your defense.” I said in a casual tone.
My tail waved, and a wonder crossed my face. Hm maybe. I scratched at the ground, a huge flash appeared. Ok so I have scratch, screech, what else? I tried bite as well… it… worked! A simple dark type move, but still pretty good.
Ns eyes were beaming. “Let me try! Let me try!” He bit at the grass but nothing happened.
“Oh N, I’m not sure if you can learn that move. Here, how about-“ I puffed up my stater, attempting a thunder shock. N did the same.
Suddenly, a little jolt flicked through the air. “I- I think I did it!” He jumped up in excitement. Sudden sparks started flowing around him. I backed up.
“Woh woh N! Calm down. It was just a small spark. You’ll have to practice more before you can use that one.” I thought for a moment. “Try this.” I jumped forward in a tackle. N copied.
A sudden flash appeared and he started wagging his tail. He jumped forward again. “I think it’s working! That’s so cool!” His tail wagged and he jumped at me in excitement, actually using the move against me.
I grunted. “Ow N!”
“Oh I’m sorry!” He let out an awkward chuckle. “Just got a bit excited.”
“Just be careful. We can practice our moves later. Oh and real quick, you can only use your move a limited amount of times. The more powerful, the less power points.” I swiftly told him.
“Got it.” N felt a sudden rumble. “Ack! Why does my stomach hurt? It’s not like the over heated feeling I get when I need oil.”
“You’re hungry. Come on let’s look for food.”
“Yes Uzi.” He quickly followed behind.
I looked around for some berries and apples. “Try collecting some round, blue colored berries. Oran berries are good for healing.”
“Man Uzi, you sure do know a lot about this stuff.”
“I only know the basics really. I was never into Pokemon like that. Though the theory’s are… interesting.” I shook a tree that sat in the middle of the field. Some berries fell down. “I’m not sure how we’ll get them all back…”
“Maybe we can try bipedal motion?” N got up on his two hind legs struggling to stand. He put a berry in his mouth, then picked up two more.
“I’m not doing that.” I said, picking up a berrie with one of my front paws. I then grabbed one with my mouth. “Come on let’s go.” I murmured as I started to walk off.
N stopped dropping the fruit. “I just got an idea!” He ran up to me. “You could hold some berries while I carry you!” His small, fluffy tail, wagged.
I was about to protest before realizing how actually smart that was. “Actually, you’re not wrong.” I got on top of him, starting to grab some berries. One, two, three, four, five, and just barely six. I smiled satisfied. “Let’s head home.” I said my face smug.
“Right!” N said, picking up a berrie himself.

Entering the cave, I saw V lying on her back in a tiered manner. This irritated me a little, considering me and N were the two who went to get some food. I dropped the six berries on the ground. Separated the ones used for healing and the ones that were better for food.
“It’s still noon. We could go back and get more if we need.” N offered, he sounded like he really liked going out side. “Would you like to come this time V? We could do some training, and also it’s really nice out.”
V grumbled a bit. “I mean I guess~ I could go. But I’m not helping with the berries.”
“You have to help at least a little!” I snapped.
V stood up suddenly, and looked me dead in the eyes, “like I have to do anything you tell me. Be glad I haven’t killed you yet.”
I bared my teeth, stepped back. “Ya right, like you have the *power* to do anything now…” I hissed back.
N stepped between use, wearing a look of concern. “Guys! Calm down. Arguing won’t do anything. How about we all go out to gather some berries? Maybe think of a way to make some bags?” He gently pushed me back.
V sat with a huff. I could tell her feelings were still mixed about the situation. N took a step back from me, lifting his head. “I’m sure if we all got something to eat it will make things easier to figure out in the morning.” He stepped out side. “If you two don’t want to come then I’ll go on my own. Make myself useful.”
I jumped up, “ugh fine! Since you’re so stubborn about it.”
V also slowly started to fallow. “Don’t think I’ve forgotten about that chain thing though…” she mentioned before finally set out to get more food.
______________________________
Returning to the cave with more berries, we collectively decided to sleep for the night. I let out a yawn. *Where should I sleep?* I wondered to myself. N had attempted to curl up next to V. She snapped at him before finally giving in.
“Just this once, because I’m tired.” She said, tone angry.
I didn’t want to sleep alone necessarily. But it felt stupid to curl into a ball of fluff, while leaning against N and V. Though knowing him, he would probably get up to sit next to me keeping company anyways. Or not. But hey, what do I know.
I finally decided on sleeping in the corner of the cave, in a nice warm patch of moss and leaves. A lot more icky than my bed, but it will do. I closed my eyes, and fell asleep, hoping that the next day would turn out ok.
