POKEMON POV,

The solemn atmosphere which was created when everyone thought about it those monster like trainers, August revealed to them and let their imagination run wild is suddenly broken by a whelp of the Eevee at Alex's side.

She yipped at Alex with cute big eyes and rubbed her head against Alex's legs most probably wishing for something.

Alex bent down on his knees to her level and rubbed her head while picking something from his backpack and handing a box of Pokemon food to her.

This action sent the solemn atmosphere down the drain and Alex falling to the Eevee cute charm was enough to invite laughter in the group.

' In the end, even Alex isn't immune to her just who is she that almost everyone here is so respectful to her ' This thought run through the silently observing Magmar's mind.

He just watched the battle and saw both of them were stronger than him and someone whom he cannot defeat even with type advantage yet his instinct told him that Espeon and that Eevee are more dangerous than the two, at least Espeon is stronger than ninetails while Eevee is even more powerful.

In his time at the team, he is closer to charmeleon and Electabuzz compared to others so he asked, ' Hey Charmeleon who is she?' he points at Eevee.

His words attracted Espeon, Charmeleon, Minccino and Emolga attention.

Charmeleon can reply who he is to Magmar but not to the Pokemon not in the team. Even though they are friends this secret is something which cannot be disclosed to Pokemons and people outside the group unless Alex himself does that.

This is a consensus every member of the team has reached and have followed till now and continue to do so in the upcoming future.

So he recited the tale they have made for her identity with some hints of truth wothout revealing the complete truth.

' She is the first friend of Espeon. She is Espeon's closest friend, that's why Alex haven't caught her yet but because she is a friend so she often visits Espeon.

In her time with us she has gotten close to almost everyone in the team, so if anyone angers her they may suffer their wrath before her or Espeon going crazy. So be careful around her and don't make her cry.

No one can save you not even Alex.'He warmed his fire type friend.

Magmar is a bit creeped about it, and although Emolga and Minccino doesn't know what the outcome it may be they don't wish to suffer.

To add a special effect, Gengar rose from Magmar's shadow and seem to crackle deviously from behind him startling not only Magmar bit every Pokemon and unaware people.

' Ahhh' both Emolga and Minccino shouted and jumped on their trainers arms in fright.

Magmar also was afraid and jumped back a few steps before readying himself for fight.

' there will be no where you can hide if you do anything to make her sad.' Gengar crackled at the newest recruit of the team.

Pokemon POV ENDS

Sudden emergence of Gengar startled everyone and those who didn't know him even pulled out their pokeball. If not for August and Alex asking them to stand down things would have gone ugly.

" Stand down everyone, I know him." Alex said to everyone.

" Who is this Gengar, Alex?" Lucian was surprised since his psychic powers never sensed him

"He is my Gengar. He is my official starter. I let him out of his pokeball last night. He was looking around the island while we were shopping and encountered August over there." Alex said to them while never revealing how Gengar normally hides in his shadow.

This is a secret he will continue to hide until he needs to use this truck to save his life. Until then this will be his life saving trick for any dangerous situation in the future.

After all no matter who your friends or how close you are and how much you trust them, one must always have some tricks up their sleeve, especially in a dangerous world like this.

Mew, his multiple powers of psychic, ghost and aura along with Gengar hiding place are some of the secret he will never reveal to anyone.

Everyone took his answer at face value not doubting him and never questioning why Gengar acted like that, for the Mischievous nature of ghost is something every trainer worth his salt knows about.

August who knew where Gengar really was never once said anything to reveal the secret, in fact he was delighted. Although having friends is good, there are some things which are to be hidden even from close friends. As for what to say and what to hide is something a skilled and good trainer must know.

Alex's hiding his Gengar true hiding place made him assured that Alex will be fine in the future even if he is in a dangerous situation. He saw Gengar had used shadow powers to hide himself which Gengar are proficient in.

With this Gengar around Alex at least he has a way to escape from foes whom he has no chance of victory.

" Now that your fight is done, I think your pokemons need some healing. After all, Not only Alex bit Cynthia wish for a Togepi and their performance so far make them qualified to visit their nest." August said to them which put the discussion regarding Gengar to a halt.

" So we can finally go that place,the hidden nest of the Togepi family?"Elsa asked excited.

" No, not all of you can go there. Only, Alex, Cynthia and finally Elsa are allowed to go. I am not only their guardian but also the examiner. I wander around the town to test the people who are qualified for the next round." August revealed to them and everyone understood why this old man was out there in such bizarre clothes.

He continued , " Alex and Cynthia has qualified in the town itself, meanwhile your performance has let you earn a seat for the next round, Elsa.

As for you lot, I was overseeing you. If you were able to see through them r plans, understand their actions or observe something I have set you may have the opportunity to visit the next, but only Alex, Cynthia and Elsa has noticed them. In the end, you cannot pass the test " he sighed on.seeimg the dejected looks of the kids.

He liked them but as a guardian and examiner he cannot be lenient against them.

" What was it that you wanted us to observe?" Lucian asked while pushing his specs back and tried to act normal but he cannot hide his disappointed look.

He turns to Alex and said," They only caught a glimpse of it as they were fighting but you have observed it didn't you?"

Alex just nodded and didn't say anything else for sometime and then mutters, " So did you make his metal coat or is it something else?"

" I only found the metal ore then crafted an armour for it's hands and body, after sometime training , it evolve in a few days time.

Didn't Samuel explain it to you, how to use metal coat, after all although it is a secret it isn't something that should be hidden from you?" August asked puzzled why Samuel hid such things from him.

Alex only sighed and said, " In his words, I am strong too fast and at much younger age, so these type of unconventional things must be discovered by me on my own effort or through my journey or times like now from others.

He will not take my hand and lead me the entire route."

August just nodded.

" So do you have any Pokemon which may need a metal coat?"

" I do have one, it is an Onix. He is already elite level so I wish to evolve him. If I go out creating an armour for him, I will go bankrupt, so for him I did a completely different trick. I am still experimenting the process, if I have some results I will tell you." Alex said everything without revealing Everything.

Everyone is confused but none asked him anything more.

Since they didn't see his glimpse then they shouldn't know it's existence unless absolutely necessary . This is what Alex and August both feel about it.

August then whistles and some seconds later, Xatu appeared in front of them.

After his arrival, August told them, " Alex, Cynthia, Elsa come forward. We will teleport to the nest." He told the trio and then to others, " We may not return today, you lot should head back to my house and rest, see you later."

Alex returned all his Pokemons with the exception of Eevee and espeon.

They stood by Xatu. Xatu eyes the Eevee form of Mew for some moment and then stood still.

Xatu slashed his hands on the air as if a signal they are going to teleport and they wisked away leaving the others behind.

And the others started to walk towards August's treehouse.
