Sorry for the late upload, trainers! This Professor is currently sick. Though, I will try to upload at least one more chapter on Tuesday.

"Haru! Kasumi! Can you help me for a while in here?" Daisy's tone sounded helpless, catching both their attention immediately.
"What's wrong, Daisy?" Kasumi asked, concern filling her voice as she approached.
Daisy let out a sigh, her eyes slightly tearful as she glanced at them. "Some rich young man is outside, and he says he's going to propose an arranged marriage to Grandpa... But I don't want it!" Her voice trembled, clearly upset by the situation.
Kasumi's eyes widened for a second, then narrowed with determination. She gave Daisy a confident smile. "No worries, I got a plan."
Haru, who had been standing quietly nearby, felt an unsettling chill. "A plan?" He raised an eyebrow, unsure of what to expect from Kasumi this time.
"What is it?" Daisy asked, a hint of hope in her voice but still a little shocked by Kasumi's sudden confidence.
"Just tell him that Haru is your future husband," Kasumi said, crossing her arms with a satisfied grin.
"Wha—" Haru started to speak but was immediately cut off by Daisy's surprised gasp.
"But… I thought the two of you were a couple?" Daisy asked, blinking in confusion.
Kasumi waved it off casually, her face glowing with confidence. "No, we're not. We're only like 10 and 11 years old. But we will be soon. I'm managing the Harem," she added with a smirk, completely unfazed.
Daisy stared at her, wide-eyed. "Oh! Then, can I join for now?" she asked with an expectant gaze, her previous worries momentarily forgotten.
"Sure!" Kasumi replied with a bright smile.
Haru, standing off to the side, felt his face redden. The situation had spiraled out of control faster than he could react. Deciding there was no way to fix this without making it worse, he simply shut his mouth and gave up.
[ Kasumi did you a great favor, ei? ] the system teased him.
'Shut up,' Haru thought, shaking his head.
With Daisy's problem seemingly resolved (at least for now), they headed out of the lab to confront the rich young man waiting outside. Haru, though, had a nagging feeling that things were about to get even more complicated.
.
.
As they stepped outside the lab, the trio immediately spotted the rich young man waiting near the gate. He was tall, wearing an expensive suit that clearly indicated his wealth. His hair was neatly styled, and a smug expression rested on his face as he fiddled with a luxury Poke Ball at his side
Haru felt the tension rise. He glanced at Daisy, who was visibly uncomfortable but determined to follow through with Kasumi's plan.
The young man spotted them and walked over with a confident swagger. "Ah, Daisy," he began, his voice dripping with arrogance. "I've already spoken to your grandfather about a proposal. Our families would be a perfect match, don't you think? An arranged marriage would benefit both of us tremendously."
Daisy, summoning her courage, stood tall. "Actually, there's no need for that. I… I already have a future husband." She gestured toward Haru, who froze, feeling every eye on him.
The young man's smug grin faltered, and he glanced at Haru, confusion and disbelief crossing his features. "This kid? You're joking, right?" He raised an eyebrow, his tone full of disdain.
Haru opened his mouth to respond, but Kasumi stepped forward, her hands on her hips and a confident smirk on her face. "That's right! Haru is Daisy's future husband. We're all part of a happy little family, actually," she declared proudly. "I'm managing the whole thing, you know, like a Harem. So, if you could kindly leave Daisy alone, that'd be great."
The young man blinked, momentarily stunned by Kasumi's bluntness. "A… a harem?" His eyes darted between Haru, Daisy, and Kasumi as if trying to figure out if they were serious.
Haru could feel his face burning with embarrassment. This was not how he imagined things would go.
Daisy, however, nodded confidently. "Yes, Haru's been by my side for a while now, so I have no need for an arranged marriage. You can tell my grandfather to drop the proposal."
The young man frowned, clearly not used to being rejected. "Do you really think you can reject someone of my status so easily?" He scoffed. "You're making a mistake. A big one."
Before Daisy could respond, Kasumi stepped forward, placing herself between Daisy and the young man. Her expression was serious now, her playful tone replaced with firmness. "Look, you don't get to make decisions for Daisy. She's already told you what she wants. If you can't respect that, then you're not even worth her time."
The young man glared at Kasumi, but before he could say anything further, Haru finally found his voice. "Daisy's made her choice. Just respect it and leave," he said, standing next to Kasumi. Though he wasn't as confident as Kasumi, he wanted to back her up.
For a moment, it seemed like the young man would argue, but the combined resolve of Haru, Kasumi, and Daisy clearly made him reconsider. He gave a frustrated sigh, flicked his wrist dismissively, and turned to leave. "Fine," he muttered. "But don't come crying to me when things don't work out." He strode off without another word, disappearing down the path.
Once he was gone, Daisy let out a long sigh of relief. "Thank you," she said, her voice shaky but grateful.
Kasumi smiled triumphantly. "See? Told you we had it handled."
Haru, still flustered, gave a small nod. "Yeah, handled..." he muttered, unsure whether to be grateful or even more embarrassed.
Daisy smiled at him, her eyes soft with appreciation. "I owe you both. Really. That could have gone so much worse."
Kasumi gave a confident wave. "No problem! Besides, it's kind of fun managing things like this, right?" she teased, winking at Haru.
Haru groaned inwardly. The system was already making fun of him, and now Kasumi was piling it on too. But, at the end of the day, at least they had helped Daisy.
Just as they were about to leave, the rich young man suddenly reappeared, a furious look on his face. "You think you can just disrespect me and get away with it?" He sneered, his eyes flashing with anger. "I'll show you what happens to those who defy me!"
Before Haru and Kasumi could react, he lunged at them, fists flying. Haru's instincts kicked in, and he quickly dodged to the side, remembering the hand-to-hand combat training he had gained from the system. He had never actually had to use it in a real fight, but now was the moment to put it to the test.
The young man threw another punch, but Haru sidestepped again and countered with a swift kick to the side, knocking the wind out of him. "You really should have walked away," Haru said, feeling a surge of confidence.
Kasumi stood back, watching with wide eyes. "Be careful, Haru!"
Daisy, who had been watching from a distance, stepped forward. "Hey! What's going on here?" She looked concerned as she noticed the young man attacking Haru.
Haru continued to evade the young man's attacks, moving fluidly as he used his training to outmaneuver his opponent. With a combination of strikes and swift footwork, he finally managed to land a solid blow that sent the young man sprawling to the ground.
"Enough!" Haru declared, standing over him with a determined look. But as he did, he noticed something strange happening—the air around him shimmered, and a dark aura began to swirl around the fallen young man.
Suddenly, a familiar sound came from Haru's Poke Ball. With a flash of light, Sensilix emerged, looking around with sleepy eyes before zeroing in on the strange aura surrounding the young man.
"Sensilix!" Haru called out, startled. "What are you doing here?"
But Sensilix seemed to be drawn to the dark energy, moving closer with curiosity. In a moment of unexpected behavior, it opened its mouth wide and inhaled the aura. Haru and Kasumi watched in amazement as Sensilix consumed the strange energy, then let out a loud burp before looking satisfied.
With a sleepy yawn, Sensilix returned to its Poke Ball, and the dark aura dissipated into the air, leaving the young man unconscious on the ground.
Daisy stepped closer, her eyes wide with disbelief. "What just happened? That was incredible!"
As the silence settled in, Haru's system buzzed in his mind:
[ Quest Alert: Investigate the Strange Energy near Pallet Town. Something unusual is lurking around the area. Reward: Unknown. ]
Haru sighed internally. "The system never gives me a break, does it?"
"What's wrong?" Kasumi asked, noticing his expression.
"Nothing, maybe we stumbled on something troublesome. Apparently, there's something strange going on around here, and we have to investigate."
Daisy crossed her arms, determination shining in her eyes. "I want to help. I don't want anyone to go through this again. If there's something strange in Pallet Town, we should face it together."
Kasumi raised an eyebrow. "Are you sure, Daisy? This could be dangerous."
"I know what I'm getting into," Daisy replied firmly. "I won't let you guys handle this alone."
Haru exchanged a glance with Kasumi and nodded. "Okay, let's check it out together. But we need to stay on guard. No idea what we might run into."
The system displayed a map in Haru's mind, leading them toward the outskirts of Pallet Town. The air around them began to feel different, heavier, as they followed the path indicated by the system. The cheerful and peaceful vibe of Pallet Town was slowly being replaced by something more eerie.
Soon, they found themselves in a quiet clearing surrounded by tall trees. The silence was unnerving, broken only by the occasional rustle of leaves in the wind.
"There," Haru pointed to a large rock formation ahead. "The system's pointing us that way."
They cautiously approached the rock formation, and as they got closer, Haru noticed faint glowing symbols etched into the stone. They pulsed with a soft, otherworldly light that made his skin tingle.
"This is definitely strange," Kasumi whispered, her eyes fixed on the glowing symbols.
Suddenly, the ground beneath them began to tremble. The symbols glowed brighter, and a strange, low hum filled the air. Haru, Kasumi, and Daisy instinctively stepped back, their hands on their Poke Balls, ready for anything.
Before they could react, the rock formation began to split apart, revealing a hidden chamber beneath. A gust of cold air rushed out, sending a shiver down Haru's spine.
"Is this... some kind of ancient ruin?" Kasumi asked, wide-eyed.
"I don't know, but we're about to find out," Haru replied, stepping forward cautiously. 'Another Ancient Ruin! Why is there a lot! I did not know Kanto have a lots of secret! Anime did not show this'
They peered into the dark chamber, unsure of what awaited them. The symbols on the walls continued to pulse, casting an eerie glow across the hidden room. As they descended into the chamber, the air grew colder, and a sense of foreboding settled over them.
Suddenly, a shadowy figure emerged from the depths of the chamber, its eyes glowing with a deep purple light. Haru, Kasumi, and Daisy instinctively released their Pokwmon—Eevee and Piplup, and Daisy's Pokemon, Ivysaur, stepped forward, ready to protect their trainers.
"What is that?" Kasumi gasped.
The figure floated closer, and Haru could feel an overwhelming sense of power emanating from it. His system chimed in:
[ Warning: Host has encountered a Legendary Pokémon—Mewtwo. ]
"Mewtwo?!" Haru's heart raced. He had heard of the powerful psychic Pokémon but never expected to encounter it so soon.
Mewtwo floated silently before them, its gaze intense and unreadable. Haru could feel the weight of its power pressing down on them.
"We need to be careful," Haru whispered. "This is no ordinary Pokemon."
Kasumi nodded, her face pale but determined. "Do we try to fight it?"
Daisy stepped forward, her expression resolute. "No, we have to communicate. It seems to be trying to tell us something."
Before Haru could respond, Mewtwo raised its hand, and a psychic wave washed over them, forcing Haru, Kasumi, and Daisy to their knees. The pressure was immense, and it felt as though the very air around them was being crushed.
Eevee, Piplup, and Ivysaur stood their ground, but Haru could see the strain in their eyes. They were strong, but this was beyond anything they had ever faced.
Just as Haru was about to call out for Eevee to attack, Mewtwo's voice echoed in their minds.
"I do not wish to fight. I seek something… something only you can help me with."
Haru blinked in surprise. Mewtwo wasn't attacking—it was communicating with them telepathically.
"What do you mean?" Haru asked, struggling to stand. "What do you need from us?"
Mewtwo's gaze softened slightly. "There is a disturbance in the balance of the Pokémon world. An ancient force stirs, threatening to unravel everything. I have been searching for trainers strong enough to face this threat."
'The balance? Is it because of my reincarnation to Pokemon World that all of this are happening? 'Haru exchanged a quick glance with Kasumi and Daisy. "You think we're the ones who can help?"
Mewtwo nodded slowly. "The bond between you and your Pokémon is strong. You possess something that few others do—an unbreakable connection with your team. It is that bond that will be crucial in the battles ahead."
Kasumi finally found her voice. "But what is this force? And how do we stop it?"
"That is something you must discover for yourselves," Mewtwo replied. "But know this—your journey will not be easy. You will face challenges unlike any you've encountered before. But if you succeed, you will save not only your world but countless others."
Daisy looked determined. "We won't let you down, Mewtwo. We'll do whatever it takes."
Haru took a deep breath, the weight of Mewtwo's words sinking in. "We'll do whatever it takes to protect the Pokemon world."
Mewtwo's glowing eyes fixed on him, and for a moment, Haru felt a surge of energy coursing through him. "Very well. I will guide you when the time comes. Until then, continue to grow stronger. Your bond with your Pokémon will be your greatest weapon."
With that, Mewtwo turned and disappeared into the shadows, leaving Haru, Kasumi, and Daisy standing in the eerie chamber, their hearts still racing.
The weight of their new mission pressed down on them, but Haru felt a sense of determination building inside him. They had been chosen for something far greater than they could have ever imagined.
Kasumi looked at him, her expression serious. "Are we really ready for this?"
Daisy nodded in agreement. "We've come this far, right? Whatever it takes, we'll face it together."
Haru gave them a reassuring smile. "You're both right. Let's keep moving forward."
As they made their way out of the chamber and back into the fading light of the evening, Haru's mind buzzed with thoughts of the mysterious force Mewtwo had warned them about.
Their journey had only just begun, but the stakes were higher than ever before.
.
.
As they stepped back into the light, Daisy looked at Haru and Kasumi, her expression a mix of determination and excitement. "I've made up my mind. I want to join you on this journey."
Haru turned to her, surprised but pleased. "Are you sure, Daisy? It could get dangerous."
'This never happens in any Pokemon timeline. Daisy Oak going on a journey with someone.'
Daisy nodded, her eyes sparkling with resolve. "After everything we just witnessed, I can't just sit back and do nothing. If there's a threat out there that could harm the Pokemon world, I want to be part of the team that stops it."
Kasumi smiled, her confidence boosted by Daisy's enthusiasm. "I think it's a great idea! We'll be stronger together."
Haru couldn't help but feel a swell of pride at their camaraderie. "Alright, then! Welcome aboard, Daisy. We'll face whatever comes our way together."
Daisy beamed, and the three of them stood together, ready to embark on this new adventure.
As they made their way back towards Pallet Town, Haru took the opportunity to think of what Mewtwo said to them and the disturbance threatening the balance of the Pokémon world. "Mewtwo mentioned an ancient force stirring. We need to find out what that means and how we can stop it."
Daisy listened intently, her determination unwavering. "We should gather information. Maybe we can find clues in local legends or speak to other trainers who might know something."
"That's a good idea," Kasumi agreed. "The more we know, the better prepared we'll be."
Haru felt the excitement build within him. With Daisy joining them, their team felt stronger than ever. "Let's head back to town and see what we can find out."
.
.
As they exited the ruins, the group paused, realizing they needed to take one more important step before embarking on their journey. Haru turned to Daisy, his expression serious. "We should let Professor Oak and your parents know about your decision to join us. They'll want to be informed."
Daisy nodded, her resolve unwavering. "You're right. I want them to understand why I'm going with you."
With that, they made their way back to Pallet Town, their hearts filled with anticipation. The sun had begun to set, casting a warm glow over the town as they approached Professor Oak's lab.
Inside, they found Professor Oak busy organizing research materials. When he noticed them, he smiled, but his expression shifted to concern when he saw Daisy's serious demeanor.
"Daisy, what brings you here?" he asked, putting down a stack of books.
"Grandpa, I wanted to talk to you," Daisy said, her voice steady. "I've decided to join Haru and Kasumi on their journey. There are strange things happening around here, and I want to help."
Professor Oak studied her for a moment, and then a smile broke across his face. "I'm proud of you, Daisy. It's important to be brave and seek out adventure, especially when it involves protecting our world. Just promise me you'll be careful."
"I promise, Grandpa!" Daisy said, her face lighting up with gratitude.
"Good," he replied, looking to Haru and Kasumi. "You'll all need to look out for each other."
"Of course, Professor. We'll keep Daisy safe," Kasumi assured him.
After informing Professor Oak, they made their way to Daisy's house. As they arrived, her parents were sitting in the living room, and Daisy took a deep breath before entering.
"Mom! Dad!" Daisy called out, her voice filled with determination. "I need to tell you something."
Her parents looked up, concern etched on their faces. "What is it, sweetheart?" her mother asked.
"I'm going on a journey with Haru and Kasumi. There are strange happenings in the area, and I want to help investigate," Daisy explained.
Her father furrowed his brow, clearly worried. "But it could be dangerous, Daisy. Are you sure this is what you want?"
Daisy nodded, her resolve shining through. "I am sure. I want to make a difference, and I promise to be careful."
Her parents exchanged glances, and after a moment, her mother spoke. "As long as you're responsible and look out for each other, we support you. Just keep us updated, alright?"
"I will! Thank you!" Daisy exclaimed, relief flooding her heart.
With the blessings of her parents, the trio set off once more, now even more determined to uncover the mysteries surrounding them.
As they entered the dense forest, the atmosphere shifted once again. The trees towered above them, casting eerie shadows that danced in the fading light. Haru felt a strange energy lingering in the air, echoing Mewtwo's warning.
They walked deeper into the forest, following the lead of the trainers who had mentioned the shrine. The path was narrow and winding, filled with the sounds of rustling leaves and distant Pokemon cries.
"Stay alert," Haru advised, his senses heightened. "We don't know what we might encounter out here."
As they continued, Daisy walked beside him, her expression a mix of excitement and nervousness. "Do you think we'll really find something at the shrine?"
"I hope so," Haru replied. "But whatever it is, we'll face it together."
After a while, they arrived at a clearing, and in the center stood a crumbling stone shrine, partially covered in vines and moss. The energy radiating from it felt palpable, and Haru's heart raced.
"This must be it," Kasumi whispered, looking at the shrine with wide eyes. "What do you think we'll find inside?"
Haru stepped closer, his instincts telling him that the answers they sought lay within. "Let's find out."
As they approached the shrine, a sudden gust of wind swept through the clearing, causing the leaves to swirl around them. The air thickened with tension, and Haru felt a chill run down his spine.
Suddenly, a dark figure emerged from the shadows, and the group turned to face whatever threat awaited them.
