And then disaster struck. While playing ahead to get the screencaps I'm looking for, I ran through the end credits and was then greeted by this screen. The game then took me to the intro sequence with Professor Oak, and I was unable to continue my data. I had planned on doing the Sevii Islands to continue the story, but now this seems impossible. Does anyone know a workaround for this?

Obviously this means the session is canceled tonight, as I only have 10 or so screencaps available.

>> No. 22795
>>22786
I got that a while back, don't remember exactly what to do but the solution was to change the way the emulator saves data.
Unfortunately, the rom, I guess, had the emulator's old way of saving saved in its .sav file, which meant it set the emulator's settings back every single time I loaded my game, and I ended up having to delete my .sav file, and with it, all of my save data.

Not sure if there's a workaround but that is my experience with that error code.

Oak: There's one more thing we need to do before you can officially call yourself the Champion. We need to register you.

"I have to fill out a form?"

Kent:
What about me?!

Things wouldn't change overnight under Wayne's rule as Champion. It would be a slow and steady process to reintroduce law to the region of Kanto. The position of Champion was not absolute. He couldn't bring revolution to Kanto immediately. Establishing a government would take time, but he couldn't quit. He had to keep at it, for the sake of the teammates he lost. For the sake of the future, for the sake of Trainers like him to come. They say power corrupts, but in all honesty, he was doing a pretty bang-up job of sticking to his ideals.

He did, occasionally, partake in sitting in the throne and bellowing out orders. Because let's be honest, who wouldn't?

The Generals were forced to give up their jobs, and take new roles as Gym Leaders. Wayne kept to the rule that if a Trainer could defeat him, they would be the new Champion. But the battles leading up to it would be controlled, with strict regulations in place. Some protested this new order, Surge, Koga, and Blaine raising the biggest fuss. Others fell into line without much struggle. Misty, having never been part of Lance's original army, seemed glad to accept her new role.

Wayne tried to oversee as much of the development as he could, but he was still just a 15 year old kid. While he signed paperwork and elected officials, there was little he could do directly. His Pokemon busied themselves with travel, checking up on people, offering help where they could. But Wayne had his duties. He had to be present if anyone wished to challenge him. As such, he had more free time than he thought.

So he sat around the Indigo Plateau most of the time. He twiddled his thumbs, played his DS, and read Cracked articles on his Pokedex. He also jumped out of his chair and grabbed his Pokeball belt because Giovanni was standing right the fuck in front of him somehow.

Curry and Sollux were released in an instant, standing at either side of Wayne. Fire filtered through the dragon's teeth and the blind Fearow's blackened eyes appeared locked on to Giovanni, despite that being impossible.

“You... how did you get in here? Why didn't any of the Elite Four stop you? Why didn't Joy stop you? How the HELL did you get past security?!” Wayne demanded. Giovanni only smiled, unfazed to see the Pokemon and Trainer that so thoroughly trounced him not months ago.

“Why it's simple, dear boy. I used the back door.”

Wayne, Curry, and Sollux dropped their combat stances instantly. “There's a... back door?” Wayne asked in confusion.

Giovanni raised his hand, causing the trio to ready for battle. But instead, he only pointed behind them. “Yes, it's right there. In the back. Lance had it installed so we could get in and out of this room easier, instead of having to walk through the entire Plateau.”

Wayne skittered to the wall Giovanni was pointing at. Sure enough, as he looked closer, there was a panel, nearly identical to the wall, but jutting out ever so slightly. He gave it a tap, and the panel slid into itself, opening up to the outside. There was already a path, paved, leading down the mountain. And, when Wayne peeked his head out, he even saw a vending machine just to the left of the path, up against the outside wall.

“I've been here for months! How come no one ever told me about that?!” he said when he pulled himself back inside.

“Possibly because everyone here hates you,” Giovanni noted with a hint of cheer in his words.

Wayne shot him a look and slid back onto his throne. “So is there a reason you came down here or do you just want me to kick your ass again? Because I'll do that. I will do that all night long. You will have the most kicked ass in all the LAND.”
>> No. 22979
“Your threats are noted, if not rather childish,” Giovanni noted.

Wayne raised his middle finger.

“But I come here for business. The business regarding your friend, Kent,” he continued. “Now, I know, I know, the two of you have never been very close. What is he up to these days?”

Wayne looked to Curry and Sollux, then shrugged. “Hell if I know, I think he's in Pallet with Professor Oak. It's not my job to keep track of him. Oak said he was working on fixing his brain.”

“What if I told you I could help you on that?”

Wayne sat up. “Liiiike you said, the two of us aren't exactly buddy-buddy. Why should I care?”

“Oh, Wayne, have you no conscience? Will you really allow that young man to suffer? Think about his grandfather, the poor man, slaving away every night! His sister, crying for her long-lost brother!” Giovanni turned the sympathy up to eleven, nearly bursting into tears as he spoke.

Curry leaned into Wayne's ear and whispered “Kent has a sister?”

“Yeah, but we didn't get any screencaps of her,” Wayne whispered back. “The point is,” he said, addressing Giovanni again, “Why do you suddenly care about Kent? You were the ones that roboticized him in the first place.”

“And that's exactly why I can restore his humanity. I have, with me, the codes to disable the programming in his brain, robbing him of his personality. Wayne, I can give him back his soul.” Giovanni's attitude became more and more manic. The grin spreading across his face was not unlike someone about to play god. But it was Giovanni, so he was used to smiling like that.

Wayne was too busy in his own head to notice Giovanni's attitude. “Isn't... Isn't that what they did to Cyrax in Mortal Kombat?”

Giovanni's face fell flat. “Yes,” he said, sighing. “Yes, that is... exactly like what they did to Cyrax in Mortal Kombat.”

At this, Wayne steepled his fingers in front of his face. “And now for the second half... What do you want me to do in return?”

Giovanni shrugged his shoulders, “Oh nothing much, nothing much. You see- you may have already heard about this- but Team Rocket was doing this little... experiment. Nothing major, just sort of... trying to clone a Pokemon. The strongest Pokemon. Ever.”

“Arceus?!” Curry exclaimed. “You cloned Arceus?!”

Giovanni faltered, and paused in thought. “Oh, right, no... Second strongest one, then. Mew. But, well, you see... It sort of got loose. Somehow. And we would really like it if someone could take care of it before it destroys all of Kanto in a bloodlust.”

“If it's such a big deal, why don't YOU guys take care of it? Why should I clean up your mess?” Wayne asked.

Giovanni grumbled, “Oh yes,” he said sarcastically “Let me just use the top secret army I have under my command OH WAIT YOU DEFEATED THEM ALL.”

Wayne smiled wistfully, “Yeah... that was pretty awesome of me.”

Giovanni snapped his fingers, drawing Wayne's attention back to him. “So, will you do it?”

Wayne looked to his companions, his two most loyal Pokemon. They looked back, or at least Curry did. Sollux sort of looked behind his Trainer. Curry nodded, and Sollux did likewise.

“Alright. We're in.”

Mewtwo had been located just north of Cerulean. When Wayne and his team stopped by Misty's Gym to ask her if she'd seen the genetic monstrosity, she said she hadn't. But she had seen a lot of activity near the caves just outside the city. Strange noises, fog, and yet no one dared to look in its direction.

The caves were located on a peninsula, and the only entrance lay facing the water. Fortunately, Wayne was smart enough to always bring GIR with him whenever he traveled. Standing at the edge of the water, covered by the thick fog surrounding the area, they could hardly see two feet in front of them.

“Soooooo you want to travel across the waters, do yeeeeeee?” an old man's voice made Wayne jump and he whirled around to find the source of it.

He was a decrepit old beast, leaning on a gnarled wooden pole. His knees shook as he stood there, he was missing half of his teeth, and he had a wirey white beard that nearly touched the ground. He was clad only in a faded blue toga and old sandals, and one of his eyes wasn't looking at Wayne. “If ye want to cross, ye shall take my ferry,” the old man said with a cackle that sounded more like a cough than anything else.

Wayne shook his head, taking a step back. “That, ah... Won't be necessary, I have a giant sea serpent to do that for me,” he said, holding up GIR's Pokeball. “So, you can go... on your way. Please.”

Curry tapped him on the shoulder and pointed to the old man's hand. “Uh, boss?”

Wayne cleared his throat and backed up into his fire-lizard. “Oh, hey. Look at that,” he laughed nervously, a terrified smile across his face. “He has a knife! Isn't that lovely, you guys? What a nice knife! Who's up for a ferry ride?”

The boat itself had seen better days. It was wooden, and small. It could only seat two, which made Wayne nervous. He would prefer one of his ferocious monsters out with him in case the old man was leading him to a murder-hole. The ship's wood was gray with age, and it creaked as the old man paddled across the lake. Wayne wondered how this crazy fossil could see anything in the fog.

“So you wish to face the nightmares?” the old man cackled, not turning around to look at Wayne.

“Is... Is the nightmares Mewtwo? Because that's what we're here for. Wait... Are YOU Mewtwo?” Wayne asked, dreading the answer more than anything else in his life.

“That's for you to find out! HEEHEEHEEHEEEE!” his laughter quickly turned to hacking and coughing, and he continued rowing through the mist.

Eventually the boat collided with the shoreline and flung Wayne forward. He scurried out, always keeping an eye on the old man, and released Curry the second he stepped on solid ground. He immediately jumped behind the fire lizard, never taking his eyes off their chauffeur.

“S-so this is the place, right? This is where Mewtwo is?” he stammered.

The old man cackled in his deranged way again. “This is where the nightmares grow!”

“C'mon, boss, let's just... head on our way,” Curry insisted.

Wayne turned around, and could just barely make out the silhouette of a cavern through the thick fog. It was a short hike up a hill, but the destination was in sight. “So are you gonna wait he-” he said, turning around. He inhaled sharply when he saw the old man was gone, no trace of him or the boat.

Curry blinked a few times, not believing what he saw either. “I-I bet he... has an Abra we didn't see.”

Wayne nodded. “Oh yeah, that has to be it! Has to be...” Shaking the thoughts out of his head, Wayne turned his attention on the cave. “Alright, let's take care of what we're here for.”

Six Pokemon were all he had against the genetic monstrosity known as Mewtwo. His hand absently rested on the Pokeballs attached to his belt. Curry and Sollux, of course. Two of his oldest and most powerful friends. GIR and Ramona also joined him, two who had been with him since the beginning. Were Ramona a different woman, she would hold it against Wayne for not bringing her to the Elite 4, and this could be seen as compensation for that. But the truth is, he just wanted Pokemon he could rely on, and very few knew him as well as Ramona. Scott was taken along mostly because he couldn't go anywhere without Ramona. Not that this was a bad thing, Scott had some power behind him that would come in handy. Finally, to round the team out, he brought Zeus. The raw energy the legendary bird had was one of his best assets.
>> No. 23356
The interior of the cave was as dank and cold as the outside. At least an inch of water on the cave floor, just enough to soak through Wayne's shoes. “Oh- jeeze! This is ridiculous! Can't we ever go someplace nice? I heard the Sevii Islands are beautiful.”

The sound of splashing echoed through the caverns, as well as various growls and chirps of wild Pokemon. A clever idea popped into Wayne's head and he grinned, excited. “Hey! Here's a thought! I think I have a bunch of Repels in here, what if we worked our way through the cave and Mewtwo happened to be the first Pokemon we encounter? We could catch him and everyone would win there!”

Curry nodded his head. “That's a great idea! Wonder why I never thought of it...”

Wayne hunched over and swung his backpack off his shoulders. “Let's see, Potions, Potions, Revive... Don't need that,” he said, tossing the useless diamond behind him. “C'mon, I was POSITIVE I had some Repels in here!”

Ramona fluttered above him and tapped his shoulder with her foot. “Wayne, you're... gonna wanna see this...”

Wayne was still rifling through his bag when he heard a cheerful cry of “WOBBU WOBBU!” directly behind him. He froze in terror, his head slowly turning around, hoping the sound was a trick of the light or a weather balloon or perhaps even swamp gas. But no, there it stood. Rubbery blue skin, bobbing up and down on on its blob-like feet. An oblivious, yet totally joyful smile plastered over its face. It was even saluting with its flat flippers.

“Arceus. Damn it,” Wayne grumbled under his breath. He let out a long, drawn out sigh as he stood to his feet, Ultra Ball in hand. He put all his strength into the toss, the ball striking Wobbuffet in his face. It sucked the Pokemon in, wiggled three times... and clicked.

Bumper joined the party!

“Well, so much for that plan!” Wayne threw his arms up in frustration and stomped ahead into the cave, splashing water on his companions with his steps.

“Someone's angry,” Ramona quipped. Wayne whirled around to glare at her.

“Just a pinch,” he remarked. “Because now it looks like I have to ACTUALLY KILL this thing!”

Curry shrugged his shoulders. “Well, no one's perfect. Look, if it comes down to it, I'll take care of it. I'll 'dirty my hands', so to speak.”

Wayne grabbed hold of a ledge and hoisted himself up to get a better look at the cave. “That's not how we do things and you know it. Man, don't even talk like that.” The cave was enormous, with a ceiling that seemed higher on the inside than it did on the outside. It made things very convenient for the flyers on Wayne's team to stretch their wings.

“Just sayin',” Curry mumbled.

“Where is this guy, anyway? I'm getting booooooooooored...” Scott whined.

“I dunno! Man, I don't even know what this thing looks like! We should've planned this better...” Wayne said, scanning the cave.

Are you looking for someone? a voice rang out. They didn't necessarily hear it, moreso felt it, deep inside their brains. The Pokemon whirled around, trying to find the source, but since it wasn't actually a sound, they couldn't trace it.

You, who have tamed these Pokemon, why do you enter my domain?

“Are you Mewtwo?” Wayne called out. He hopped off the ledge and joined his Pokemon. A squishy human had no place on the frontlines of a battle.

That is the name I was given, yes.

“Well, in that case...” Wayne tried to sound as confident as he could, but when you can't SEE your opponent, it tends to hinder your belief in yourself. “We're, ah, here... to kill you.”

There was a flash of light, and when Wayne's team's eyesight returned, a figure stood in front of them. It had a vaguely humanoid shape. Feet like a rabbit's hind legs, a tail like a lizard, and paws at the end of its arms. The shape of its head resembled a cat, but its actual face looked somewhat like a human's. It lacked any real muscle mass, except for its legs. If Wayne had to guess, he would say that this thing was indeed a genetic monstrosity.

I would like it if you didn't do that. Mewtwo said.

“Well, I have my reasons. A friend of mine is on the line. Well he's not really my friend, so much as he is an acquaintance. Well, not even that, more like an enemy. The point is, Giovanni wants you dead, so that's... that's what's gotta happen.”

Ah, Giovanni. A name I've grown to hate. Yes, I understand now. Very well, but I shall not go down easily. Prepare yourselves!

“RAMONA, YOU'RE UP FIRST!” Wayne shouted, sending his Butterfree into the field. “PSYBEAM!”

A beam of pure kinetic energy emerged from Ramona's head, smashing into Mewtwo with the force of a truck, which is something there's only one of in all of Kanto. Mewtwo held his ground, though, swatting away the force with one hand. Fool! I am the master of Psychic energy! Did you really think you stood a chance against my mind?! Mewtwo unleashed his own force, not in a beam, but a full wave. It swept Ramona off-balance, slamming her into the rock wall behind Wayne and the rest of his team.
>> No. 23357
“Ramona!” Scott cried out. Ramona fluttered back into the air, losing her balance every so often.

“I'm alright...” she groaned. Wayne nodded in approval.

“Think you got one more move left in you?”

“Just barely.”

“Good. Hit him with Stun Spore,” he ordered. Ramona kicked up a cloud of yellow dust and flapped her wings to blow it towards Mewtwo. The spores coated him, and when he tried to move, a painful electric pulse forced him to seize up.

“Alright... I'm good...” Ramona sighed. Wayne nodded and recalled her into her Pokeball. “ZEUS!”

FOR GLORY, LADS!” the Zapdos cheered.

“DRILL PECK!” Zeus flew high, nearly to the top of the cave ceiling, and dove down into a freefall. He spun in a barrel roll, picking up more and more momentum and increasing his rotation speed. Mewtwo could barely move, but he did manage to raise his hand to catch the Zapdos by the beak. The two locked themselves in a standstill. Zeus never broke his spin, and eventually began pushing Mewtwo back. Eventually the Stun Spore robbed Mewtwo of his focus and Zeus pushed Mewtwo's hand away, piercing the Pokemon through the shoulder.

Clever... You're no ordinary Pokemon...

I AM MORE THAN POKEMON, I AM A GOD!” Zeus yelled, letting out a hearty laugh.

You are no god. Mewtwo appeared to be focusing, closing his eyes in thought. He opened them with a flash and Zeus felt a chill up his spine. I predict your demise...

“Aw crap, it's Future Sight! Zeus, hit him with another Drill Peck!” Wayne ordered. Zeus flew high again and dove in a spiral. It was a direct hit this time, Mewtwo being unable to stop the blow with his Psychic energy. However, the attack wasn't enough to down the monstrosity and the Future Sight took effect. Pain shot through every nerve in Zeus's body, and he plummeted to the ground. Wayne was able to recall him before he smashed against the ground.

“So that's two down...” Wayne mumbled under his breath. “Sollux! Same thing! It's our best bet right now, just gotta wear him down!”

Sollux repeated the pattern Zeus had started, flying up and diving down. The same trick over and over, have you nothing new?

“it's w0rking.” was all Sollux said before slamming into Mewtwo.

Stun Spore took effect again, preventing Mewtwo from attacking again. He fell to a knee and for the first time, made a physical sound, panting as if out of breath.

You humans... all the same, in the end. Something frightens you, because you do not understand it. So you kill it.

“I'm only doing what's asked of me, don't confuse my orders for hate,” Wayne said flatly.

That's even worse. A killer without any emotional ties. Tell me, boy, why do you think Giovanni wants me dead?

“To... cover up for his mistakes?”

No. Because he fears my potential for peace.

Scott felt something peck at the back of his leg and looked down to see a Parasect staring up with big, childish eyes. “Why are you beating up our daddy?” he asked in a cutesy, high-pitched voice.

“Uhhh... Wayne?” Scott said, tapping Wayne on the shoulder.

Wayne turned around to see countless Pokemon, watching the battle as it progressed. Most of them looked scared, looking away when Wayne faced them. “Wh-?”

It's true that I slaughtered many humans when I was released from my capsule. My mind was undeveloped, and I thought purely on instinct. But as the days progressed, I was able to think clearly and see the error of my ways. This cave is a haven for the lost. I welcome Pokemon of all type and make. It is my way of repentance.

Wayne rubbed his eyes and groaned. “Jeeeeeze, you just had to make it complicated, didn't you!? This would've been so much easier if you were evil or something...”

“but if we d0n't d0 s0mething ab0ut him, then kent w0n't regain his humanity.” Sollux reminded Wayne.

“I know, I know! But still! Urgh, I didn't really want to kill him in the first place, and now this?” Wayne sighed. “This just makes it so much more difficult...”

If you think my repentance means I must die, then strike me down. Finish this battle. The death will be on your hands. Mewtwo said.

“Wayne won't be the one dirtying his hands today,” Curry growled. “That's my job.” He charged forward, his mouth flaring.

“Curry, wait-!” Wayne called out. There was a burst of flame that lit up the entire cave, and then it fell back into darkness.

Later, while exiting back into the fog, Wayne glared at Curry. “You didn't have to take it that far, Curry!”

“Hey, you guys were all just standing there! What else was I supposed to do?!” Curry rolled his eyes.

“You can't just act without thinking, man! You're supposed to be my right-hand-guy, and then you go and do something like that...”

“what's d0ne is d0ne, there's n0 g0ing back n0w.” Sollux said plainly.

Wayne sighed, defeated. “I suppose... Just still not sure if we did the right thing.”

Curry shook his head. “I did what I had to, wonderin' if it was right or wrong is pointless.”

“You and me are going to have a private chat later,” Wayne said to his companion before recalling him back into the Pokeball. “Sollux, take us back to the Indigo Plateau.”

Leaving Cerulean Cave behind, Wayne gave one final look back and closed his eyes. He couldn't stop wondering whether or not they had made the right decision. There was too much to consider. Grey was a bad area, he preferred things to be black and white.
