[Pokémon] Project PokeTalk

[CliveKoopa]

This is my third Pokemon fan fiction. This is set two years before Spencer (The Start Of Spencer's Journey and The Secret Of Shinford City) was born. This is the story of the birth of Project PokeTalk and how it would ultimately enable Spencer to be able to talk to pokemon.

Chapter 1
Marty Jackson is a pokemon researcher in a research lab at Alto Mare. It was a normal day at the lab and he sat down at his computer in his office and was studying pokemon DNA. He was looking at images of seperate DNA strands from certain pokemon and then an idea suddenly came to him.

"My God, that's it," Marty said to himself. He had discovered something what he had been searching for years. He realised that the strand of DNA was identical in every single pokemon but was not present at all in humans. He grinned at this discovery.

"This could be exactly what I'm looking for, the gene what allows all pokemon to understand each other. But I'll need to make sure first and its not some other gene," Marty said.

He then printed out the images on paper and left his office and his computer on standby. The pokemon Marty was going to test was a Dragonite, a pokemon who helps out with Marty's research. Marty's controversial methods of research was frowned upon by some people but Marty claims to be acting in the best interests of the pokemon and denies any cruelty involved. Marty told Dragonite what he wanted to do and although he refused at first, he eventually agreed after realising what could be achieved. Marty stuck a small needle in Dragonite's left arm and took a blood sample. He then put a plaster on Dragonite's arm.

"There, all done," Marty said. "Thank you for allowing me to do this. I promise you that what I aim to achieve is for the good of humanity and pokemon." Dragonite nodded then Marty left to return to his lab with Dragonite's blood sample. When he returned to the lab, he used a centrifuge tube to seperate the DNA from the blood. He then put both the blood and DNA samples in a fridge. He left it in the fridge for at least half an hour to cool down. While he waited, he had some lunch and a cup of coffee. He returned and then took out the DNA sample, which was being held in a tube. He compared some of it with the images he had printed out earlier. Marty looked at both the images and the DNA sample and realised they were the same.

"YES!", Marty shouted. "After all these years, I think I found you at last. At least I hope so" he added. "Now all I need is a volunteer."

Chapter 2
Marty had claimed a sample of Dragonite DNA, what he believed could be the answer for allowing humans to understand pokemon. Before looking for some people to volunteer, he did some research on human DNA and anatomy to see if it was possible. He was looking for a way to allow the pokemon DNA to be inserted into humans without it being rejected as well as genetic alterations. He had all the equipment but he needed to make sure that what he wanted to do was in fact possible and that no long-term effects would pass onto humans as a result of the experiment. After about an hour of research and printing, he was now convinced that what he aimed to achieve would be a success.


"Okay, I have all the equipment ready. I may need to clone Dragonite's DNA just in case I have more volunteers. Now I'll need a name for this, I know. How about Project PokeTalk?" Marty said to himself. He also knew who to use as his first volunteer, his friend Robin Harding from Glenforda Town. He always wanted to talk to pokemon. He contacted him once he got home on his PokeGEAR.


"Hi Robin, are you alone?" Marty asked.


"Yes I am. What's the problem?" Robin asked.


"Robin, I've found it," Marty said.


"Found what? What are you talking about?" Robin asked.


"The answer to all our problems. I finally found a way for humans to understand pokemon," Marty replied.


Robin almost choked on his drink. "You WHAT??" Are you serious?" He said.


"I've never been more serious about anything in my entire life. I've been researching pokemon and human DNA and I believe I may have found a way to mix pokemon DNA with human DNA using advanced genetic modifications. Can I ask you to come to my laboratory as I have lots of things to tell you? I have found a lot more than what I've just told you. This is going to be big, and I mean big," Marty said.


"I'll be there as soon as I can," Robin said.


"Thanks a lot Robin, see you soon," Marty said before ending the call.


Robin arrived at Marty's house just over an hour later, which was located right behind Alto Mare's secret garden.


"Hello Robin, please sit down," Marty said as Robin walked in his house. "Please sit down."


Robin sat down as Marty handed him a folder of documents. "Have a read at this," Marty said.


Inside the folder was pages of information on pokemon DNA, human DNA, genetic modification and images of human anatomy and DNA, pokemon DNA and diagrams on how to clone and modify DNA. Robin marvelled at the information. Marty told him about everything he had been researching and discovered while Marty was reading.


"Wow, looks you really have done it," Robin said. "Are you sure that this is safe? There won't be any long-term effects or anything if you go ahead with this?"


"I don't know," Marty admitted. "I don't think so. According to my research, it should be 100% safe."


"Well as you know, I've always wanted to speak to pokemon so I'll gladly be your first volunteer," Robin said.


Marty smiled at Robin's comment. "Thanks Robin, I've decided to call the project Project PokeTalk. I have a sample of a Dragonite's DNA, which I'm going to clone so I'll have several copies for any more potential volunteers. We can start right now, if you want."


"Sure thing, lets go," Robin said.


So Marty and Robin went to Marty's research lab. When they arrived, Robin first examined Marty for any health problems and fitness.


"Okay, so it looks like you are perfectly fine so we can now start with the procedure. Fingers crossed, and lets hope this works," Marty said as Robin was lying down on a bed and his shirt was now off. "Before I go any further, are you sure you still want to do this? There is no going back otherwise," he added.


"Yes, I am positive," Robin said.


"Okay, first I'll need to anaesthetise you," Marty said. "Just remain calm, this will all be over soon."


Marty then stuck an anaesthetic needle in Robin's arm who fell asleep shortly afterwards.


"Good, we can now get to business," Marty said as he proceeded to work on Robin, his first volunteer for Project PokeTalk.​

Chapter 3
Robin was now completely asleep under anaesthetic and Marty attached some tubes to his body, which was connected to a machine. Marty then took out Dragonite's DNA sample out of the fridge, which he had already cloned while he was examining Robin. He switched on the gene alteration machine connected to the tubes into Robin's body. He injected a drop of DNA, which was in liquid form into each of the tubes. As each bit of DNA passed down the tubes into Robin's body, the machine was sending electrical signals into Robin to get the pokemon DNA to merge with his own DNA. Marty kept checking Robin and was writing notes on his stability during the experiment. Luckily, Robin just lay there as he was asleep and nothing seemed to affect him. After about twenty minutes, the procedure was over.


"Okay, that's all done. I hope Robin comes through and that this project worked," Marty said to himself. "I'd better call in Dragonite and get him to try and communicate with Robin when he wakes up." He paged Ivan, one of his aides who was with Dragonite at the time to pass on the message for him to come to his lab. Marty then disconnected all the tubes and put some bandages and plasters over the areas where the tubes were then let Robin recover. Dragonite now entered the room as both he and Marty waited for Robin to wake up. After another fifteen minutes, the anaesthetic wore off and Robin slowly woke up. He saw Marty and Dragonite standing over him. What happened next shocked him, the experiment worked faster and better than Marty ever hoped for.


"Hello Robin, I am Sandor. I am Marty's aide and you have my DNA in you," Dragonite said.


Robin just stared at Dragonite with wide-eyes. Marty noticed this and realised that the experiment was a success. He was proud of his achievement.


"Hello Sandor. Well it looks like I can understand you," Robin said.


"Sandor? That's your name?" Marty asked who couldn't understand him. Sandor nodded. "Well it looks like I'd better get used to calling you that instead of Dragonite. I've made quite a few clones of your DNA so tomorrow, I'm going to use one on myself once I can convince one of my aides to help."


"That's great Marty. Just think of all the secrets and stuff you could learn from the pokemon themselves," Robin said.


"Indeed. I can learn many secrets in just over five minutes. Things what have taken years and sometimes not even ever for people like Professor Oak to find out. He would be so jealous if he even knew this project existed," Marty laughed. "You should go home and rest for now. Remember, your body is still getting used to the new DNA so you should rest your body for today and we'll see how things go tomorrow."


"Good idea. Thank you very much Marty and thank you too Sandor," Robin said before returning home.


The next day, Marty eventually managed to convince Ivan to anaesthetise him and use one of the cloned DNA on him through the same machine used on him. When the procedure was done, Marty woke up about twenty minutes afterwards. Both Ivan and Sandor was standing over him.


"Ivan, Sandor, is it done," Marty asked as he slowly sat up.


"It's done. Can you understand me?" Sandor said.


"Yes I can," Marty said. Ivan looked at him weirdly. He didn't understand what Sandor had said and Marty replied straight away.


"Good, how you feeling?" Sandor asked.


"Great, absolutely great. Project PokeTalk is a complete success. I have now proven it is possible for humans to understand pokemon despite what the textbooks say. But we need to keep this a secret, only a few select people should know about this," Marty said.


"I agree. I can't understand them but I believe you can. It is best that no-one ever finds out about this, not even Professor Oak. We can tell a few select volunteers but they need to keep it a secret," Ivan said.


After some more talking, Marty went home to relax just like he told Robin too the day before.


For the next few days, Robin and Marty tried their newly given abilities on wild pokemon but out of other humans' earshots. Over the next week, Marty had given just three other people the pokemon DNA allowing for pokemon to be understandable. One day he walked into Harlan's, a restaurant specialising in Mediterranean cuisine. He sat down at a table, which he ordered for two. Another man not much older than him walked over to the table and sat down. It was Lorenzo.
