Chapter 2: The book



Mark looked around once they were inside. He eyed a book in a large bookcase called Old and new pokémon legends. By the size of the book, Mark got the feeling that it included more than just those normal, boring legendary pokémon everyone has already caught. As a matter of fact, he also had the odd feeling that he just had to read that book, so he asked:

“Can I read a book?”

“Guess you can,” said the woman like she didn’t care what he did at all and went into another room.

“Thanks,” Mark said and drew the book out. It was very dusty, and seemed like it had been there untouched for years. At least it was certain that the woman wasn’t very interested in legendary pokémon. He opened the book, sat down on a gray old sofa and started to read, with Charmander reading over his shoulder.

“Molzapart? Rainteicune? Hogia? Chaletwo? Waraider, Flamer, Hydrocean, Electrone, Leafer, Freezer, Psycon, Darkan? Dracolor, Dragoreen, Dragored, Dragoblue, Dragold, Dragowhite, Dragoblack – I’ve never heard of any of those!” Mark felt weird to know that so many legendary pokémon hadn’t been mentioned in his books at all. He turned to page 17 and started to read about Molzapart.


Molzapart


Molzapart is a mix between Articuno (see pages 4 - 6), Zapdos (pages 7 – 9), Moltres (pages 10 - 12), and Mew (pages 13 – 15). It is the most powerful pokémon, along with Chaletwo (page 37). There is only one that was born when Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres and Mew were at Seafoam Islands. They saw the ultra-powerful Mist stone (see page 74) and thought is was a pokémon, so they attacked it, each with their most powerful attack. These attacks all hit the Mist stone at the same time and it shattered into a million pieces, except that the middle part was still there, floating in mid-air, crackling with electricity, glowing white-hot, but yet frozen at the same time. And it turned to life because of the power of their attacks combined with the power of the Mist stone. It transformed into a pokémon with Moltes’s head, Zapdos’s body, Articuno’s wings and tailfeathers, and power equal to its creators’ added together, along with having gained five types, Fire/Electric/Ice/Psychic/Flying. After Mew and the legendary birds ran away, Molzapart started to train itself and at last it reached level 100. But it wanted more, it wanted to become the most powerful pokémon ever, so it trained even more and with help from its psychic powers, it finally managed to get over level 100 with experience. When it then reached level 255, it used all of its psychic powers to get even farther than the only other pokémon capable of getting over level 100, Missingno., and got itself to level 256. After that, it had to rest for three years because of the power that required, but then it could train itself forever without help from the psychic powers. No one knows for now what level Molzapart is currently on. Molzapart learns these attacks:

Level	Attack
---	Peck
6	Thundershock
7	Ember
8	Powder snow
9	Gust
15	Confusionk
18	Icy wind
20	Wing attack
22	Flame wheel
23	Spark
24	Psybeam
26	Fly
30	Drill peck
34	Psychic
35	Thunderbolt
36	Flamethrower
37	Ice beam
40	Aeroblast
41	Sacred fire
42	Zap cannon
45	Fire spin
50	Blizzard
51	Fire blast
52	Thunder
55	Sky attack

Another interesting thing about Molzapart is that it can know five attacks at the same time. It also has the ability to modify people’s memory at will, and not just erase it, but actually modify it, and is said to kill any trainer who tries to catch it and then make everyone forget them.


“Wow, that sounds really powerful,” Mark muttered. “Let’s see... what is Rainteicune?”

He turned to page 27.


Rainteicune


Rainteicune is a mix between Raikou (page 18), Entei (page 21) and Suicune (page 24). It was born when clones a trainer had created of Raikou, Entei and Suicune were on their race around the Johto world when a terrible thing happened; they all crashed into each other on Route 46. Because of their speed, the force broke their skulls easily and killed them, although life was still left in their bodies for a few seconds afterwards. Suicune died first, melting into a pool of water. But when the water touched Entei’s body, Entei died, too, and at the same time it touched Raikou, which was still barely alive. The water caused Raikou to release a Thunder, but then Raikou died.

Because that Thunder was Raikou’s very last bit of life, it managed to revive the life that had just left the legendary beasts. But as they were all connected by Suicune’s water, it mixed them up into Rainteicune, which had Raikou’s body, Suicune’s head and ribbons, and Entei’s feet and cloak. Rainteicune’s birth gave it more than two types, like had happened with Molzapart (page 17), making Rainteicune a Fire/Water/Electric type. Rainteicune’s attacks are:

Level	Attack
---	Bubble
5	Water gun
6	Thundershock
7	Ember
10	Bubblebeam
11	Spark
12	Flame wheel
18	Fire spin
22	Surf
23	Thunderbolt
24	Flamethrower
30	Rain dance
36	Hydro pump
37	Thunder
38	Fire blast

Rainteicune’s maximum stats at level 100 are: 433 HP, 328 Attack, 328 Defense, 328 Speed, 328 Special Attack, 328 Special Defense.


“Wow, that’s incredibly much, even for a legendary pokémon!” Mark said, astonished. “Each stat comes from the one of them that is the strongest in that category, it seems. But these legendary pokémon all appear to be boring mixes of others... ‘Hogia’? Not hard to guess what that is...” And he turned to page 34.


Hogia


Hogia looks very much like Ho-oh (page 28) but the feathers on the head are different and also the colors of the tail-and-wingfeathers. It also learns different attacks. It learns Aeroblast, which is Lugia’s (page 31) signature move, and that’s why it has this name. People assume it is related to Ho-oh in some way. It is a Fire/Flying-type and learns:

Level	Attack
---	Gust
---	Peck
---	Transform
---	Ember
17	Metal claw
27	Whirlwind
37	Wing attack
47	Flamethrower
57	Sacred fire
67	Stare
77	Aeroblast
87	Fire blast
97	Hyper beam

The strangest thing about this pokémon is how it learned Transform.


“Well, it wasn’t a mix between Ho-oh and Lugia after all. Let’s look at Chaletwo,” Mark muttered and turned to page 37.


Chaletwo


Chaletwo is equally powerful as Molzapart (page 17). Only one exists, and it doesn’t really exist but once a year. It always appears at the same place, just out of Green town, in the grass down from the Pokémon center. It appears at 4: 26: 45 PM at the 25th of May. There is a clock in the pokémon center that tells the exact timing for people that want to see Chaletwo. It looks like a Mewtwo (page 16) for an unknown reason except that its eyes are extremely powerful, and whatever it looks at with its eyes open will die if it’s alive and explode if it’s not. However, Chaletwo, regardless of being a Dark/Psychic type, is a protector of all life and therefore doesn’t use its powers. Chaletwo’s eyelids are the only thing that can resist the power streaming from its eyes, and even with its eyes closed, Chaletwo can see through things. So, once a year, it appears near Green town and, with its eyes closed, will scan through the planet to check for a threat to all life. If it finds one, Chaletwo will travel back in time, because one of its abilities is timetraveling and try to fix it before it starts. Otherwise, Chaletwo will just travel one year into the future for its next yearly appearance. Chaletwo’s psychic powers are incredibly strong, it has very powerful stats and is level 4739 when this is written. Its Special attack and Speed are even higher than Molzapart’s, but the Attack, Defense and Special defense of Molzapart are slightly higher than Chaletwo’s. Chaletwo’s eyes are bright yellow under the eyelids. The attack when it opens its eyes is called Death Stare. It also knows Psychic, Future Sight and Teleport, and Chaletwo can also learn Mirror coat, Ancient power, Mind reader, Confusion, Psybeam, Psych up, Psywave, Recover, Reflect and Barrier. Its abilities to control the weather are also said to give it the ability to indirectly use Gust, Whirlwind, Powder Snow, Blizzard, Thunder, Rain dance, Sunny day, Sandstorm, Earthquake, Haze, Mist, Icy wind, Moonlight, Morning Sun, Razor leaf, Razor wind, and Solarbeam.


“It’s the 10th of May today! If I get to Green town within two weeks, I can see Chaletwo!” Mark was exited by knowing this, but still wondered why his books on legendary pokémon didn’t mention Chaletwo. He turned to page 63.


Waraider


Waraider is a legendary pokémon that few people know of. It is a white flying unicorn, Normal/Flying type, and knows Horn attack, Fury attack, Horn Drill, Wing attack, Double kick, Jump kick, Hi jump kick, Stomp, Mega kick and Gust. Its evolutions all know these attacks and more, they will all be described briefly on the next page. Waraider and its evolutions all race around in company, and try not to be caught. They are said once to have been only Waraiders, but when they were all near a town, some kids started throwing stones at them, but didn’t notice many of the stones they threw at them were evolution stones which evolved the Waraiders as they hit them. The pokémon ran away, only two of them were still Waraiders, and one unfortunately stepped on a part of the Mist stone (page 74) and evolved too. After that, the last Waraider became the leader of them all.


Flamer


Flamer is the fire evolution of Waraider, evolved with a Fire stone. In addition to Waraider’s moves, it learns Ember, Fire spin, Flame wheel, Flamethrower, Fire Blast, Sunny day, Sacred fire, Morning sun, and Fire punch. Its tail and mane are made of fire, like Ponyta’s, but its body is white.


Hydrocean


Hydrocean is the water evolution of Waraider, evolved with a Water stone. In addition to Waraider’s moves, it learns Water gun, Waterfall, Hydro pump and Rain dance. Its tail is like a waterfall and its mane is like a river. Its body is deep blue.


Electrone


Electrone is the electric evolution of Waraider, evolved with a Thunderstone. In addition to Waraider’s moves, it learns Thundershock, Thunder wave, Spark, Thunderbolt, Thunder, Thunderpunch and Zap cannon. Its horn is a little shaped like a bolt of lightning and its mane and tail are always sparkling. Its body is bright yellow.


Leafer


Leafer is the grass evolution of Waraider, evolved with a Leaf stone. In addition to Waraider’s moves, it learns Razor leaf, Solarbeam, Synthesis, Absorb, Mega drain, Giga drain and Leech seed. Its tail, mane and wings are not made of hair and feathers, but leaves. Its body is white.


Freezer


Freezer is the ice evolution of Waraider, evolved with a Mist stone and therefore the most powerful of them all. In addition to Waraider’s moves, it learns Powder snow, Mist, Haze, Ice beam, Icy wind, Aurora beam, Ice punch and Blizzard. It is very cold to the touch and its tail, mane, horn and wings are light blue. Its body is white.


Psycon


Psycon is the psychic evolution of Waraider, evolved with a Sun stone. In addition to Waraider’s moves, it learns Confusion, Psybeam, Teleport, Barrier, Light screen, Mirror coat, Psych up, Amnesia, Agility, Future sight, Hypnosis, Dream eater, Meditate, Kinesis, Psychic, Psywave, Reflect and Rest. Its mane, tail, wings and horn are purple, but the body is white.


Darkan


Darkan is a little different from the others, as its wings are those of a bat and it has fangs. It is the dark evolution of Waraider, evolved with a Moon stone. In addition to Waraider’s moves, it learns Pusuit, Bite, Crunch, Faint attack and Thief. It is completely black, but its eyes are a bit red.


“Those are interesting, but Dracolor sounds very interesting too.” Mark turned to page 65.


Dracolor


This is a baby pokémon. It can evolve into Dragoreen, Dragored, Dragoblue, Dragold, Dragowhite or Dragoblack. They all learn different moves at different levels. Dracolor starts with Bite and Tail whip but doesn’t learn anything else. It’s a Dragon/Flying type, although the wings are small and can barely keep it in the air. It evolves at level twenty, but it will always evolve into Dragoreen if nothing special is done. According to the legend, it needs to be treated in a special way in order for it to evolve into other evolutions. Those “requirements” will be described on the next page. Dracolor is classified as a Baby dragon pokémon. Its evolutions are classified as Dragon pokémon. Dracolor is green, but its color changes when it evolves into an “advanced” evolution, or so are the evolutions that need special requirements called. Now, as Dracolor and its evolutions aren’t even one of a kind, you could wonder why they are legendary. Well, they happen to have more than two types, like Molzapart and Rainteicune, making them very special as they aren’t even born in a special way, just hatched from eggs like any other pokémon.


“ Cool!” Mark turned to the next page.

The next page, page 67, had a note on it.


As the author of a book about legendary pokémon, I had to talk to many people. One, who chose not to be named in the book, told me about Molzapart and Rainteicune, and said he/she had seen both of them and knew their attacks. What you see in this book about them is exactly what that person told me.

Mark closed the book, turned to Charmander and said:

“Wouldn’t it be cool to be a legendary collector and try to catch all the legendary pokémon in the world?”
