(Ended up making another fic about the Pokémon/Kirby crossover au, this time one featuring the main story. And a proper introduction to it as a whole. (Same as the last fic, this contains different pics for each side. The Kirby side contains Susie’s pov, whereas the Pokémon side contains Giovanni’s.))

ＴｈｅＤｅａｌ

Popstar, home to colorful and unique creatures alongside the universe’s finest heroes. But lurking among them was none other than Susie, former secretary of the Haltmann Works Company. Having been stranded on the planet after the company’s downfall, Susie was left to her own devices. Granted it wasn’t much of a surprise, as Susie herself had planned to take over the company. But was stopped due to many unforeseen problems, namely that of the Star Dream A. I. going haywire. Not to mention the Dreamland locals fighting back against the mechanization, one in particular using one of the company’s very own Robobots against them.

With a short sigh, Susie looked at the sky in utter boredom. Gone were her machines and weapons, having been left with just her personal Robobot and blaster. With lack of proper supplies, Susie was forced to use them sparingly lest they broke. Letting out another sigh, she stared off into the sky again. Wondering what the day would bring…

Susie was soon jolted out of her thoughts however, as her Robobot began to pick up an alien signal. Tilting her head in confusion, she pondered over what to do. Being stuck in Dreamland was torture for her, days bleeding into the next. Susie yearned for something, anything to stop the monotony. It seems that this was the break, trying her luck she decided to follow the signal. Eager to see where it lead, Susie let out a soft laugh.

As the signal got stronger, Susie let out a gasp. Catching a glimpse of various figures, clothed in strange garb. It seems that they weren’t Dreamland locals either. With a sly grin, Susie decided to closely follow them. Taking care as she didn’t want to risk being seen, Susie used her Robobot to tail them from a distance.

Stifling a chuckle, she finally couldn’t contain her excitement. With a grin, Susie would press a button on the side of her visor. The built in holographic device, began to alter her features to properly fit in. Brushing her hair to the side, Susie made herself known to the group. “Greetings!” “It looks like you need some help.” Still grinning, she awaited the team’s response. Finally one of the members spoke up, staring straight at Susie with a mix of suspicion and nervousness. “W-who the hell are you?” “And what do you want with Team Rocket?” ‘Team Rocket?’ Susie stifled a soft chuckle, her interest was growing. It seems she found something quite different after all.

Susie took a breath, her voice calm and soft. “I mean you no harm, honest.” “And I have no idea what this “Team Rocket” even is!” She stared back at the group, as a look of shock settled on each of their features. It seems that Susie’s assumption that they weren’t from this universe wasn’t just a hunch. Still grinning, she took a step forward as they stayed silent. “It seems like you’re not from here, right?” “!!!!!!” She watched with curiosity, as her suspicions were confirmed by their look of recognition.

As the group continued to stare, one among them finally spoke up. “Ah, it seems we have a guest.” The man’s voice was completely calm, as Susie turned to stare at him curiously. It seems that she found the leader of the group, his stern expression softened slightly as he continued. “I take it you’re like us then?” “Not originally from this world?”

Susie nodded, as her grin widened. “Yes, you’ve got that right…” With a warm chuckle, she took a bow. “Where are my manners?” “I am Susie, and I take it you’re the boss of “Team Rocket”?” She grinned, as the man simply nodded. A few of Team Rocket’s members began to nervously whisper amongst themselves, as Susie just watched curiously. “Y-you can’t trust her Boss!” “Y-yeah, she seems like bad news…” This unruly behavior was stopped by their leader however, needing only to raise a hand to silence them. Susie was in awe of the amount of power and authority this man held, speaking up again she didn’t hide her excitement. “You know, that name reminds me of my previous employer.”

The man simply raised an eyebrow at that, as she continued. “My former employer was quite ambitious, our company was known throughout various galaxies and planets.” The man let out a chuckle, his voice oozing with intrigue. “That sounds like quite the company.” Susie let out a chuckle, nodding. “It was!” With a sigh, she clapped her hands happily. “But enough about the past!” “It seems like you need some help, after all it looks like you don’t know your way around Dreamland yet….” The man frowned, looking confused for a moment. “Dreamland?”

The man just chuckled again, adding with a smirk. “Well, I’ll take you up on that offer.” He introduced himself properly as well, mirroring Susie with a bow. “Name’s Giovanni, by the way.” Susie grinned, bowing as well. “Nice to meet you properly, Giovanni sir!” “Likewise.” Giovanni’s grin widened, as Susie felt like this was the start to a powerful alliance... “Now, what else do you know about Dreamland?”

──────────⋆✩⋆───────────

Kanto, home to powerful creatures called Pokémon and many humans who train and live alongside them. Unbeknownst to the many who lived there, Team Rocket was busy. The evil organization, served to capture and use Pokémon for their own gain. Currently Team Rocket’s leader, Giovanni was overseeing a new project. One that proved quite fruitful, as the Team’s top scientists managed to create a powerful device. One that had the ability to access different universes, the scientists were incredibly eager. Wondering where to explore first, Rocket’s leader decided to leave things up to chance for a change, after all life was often unpredictable.

Chuckling softly, Giovanni stared at the portal slowly opening in amusement. Currently in the process of assigning a recon team, consisting of Team Rocket’s best members lead by none other than himself. Doing so in order to properly explore, and observe what the new universe had in store for them. So far things were running along smoothly, as the team gathered their supplies. It seems Team Rocket had much in store…

Team Rocket’s recon team, now fully equipped for the task at hand carefully made their way through the portal. They were taken aback, this new universe was bizarre. Everything was different, no humans or Pokémon in sight. Instead rather alien looking creatures, in a colorful dreamlike environment. The team marched on, catching a few of the creatures along the way. Giovanni was eager to see more of the world, they continued on.

As the team continued on their search, they were met with even more unique creatures. These more violent than the ones previously encountered, they lacked fear of humans or Pokémon. The grunts were forced to bring out their Pokémon, in order to avoid getting attacked. As the scientists watched on in awe, eager to learn more about this universe and it’s inhabitants.

Team Rocket’s recon squad was soon stopped in their tracks, as a strange voice called out. “Greetings!” “It looks like you need some help.” “!!!???” The grunts jolted in alarm, each reaching for their Pokéballs. As a figure stepped forward, it was a human girl? Although she seemed strange, her features alien in nature. Eyes too bright and blue to be normal, hands seemingly floating in the air by themselves, to top it all off the girl was dressed from head to toe in strange futuristic garb.

Giovanni stayed silent, curious as to how things would play out. One of the more nervous Rocket grunts spoke up, staring straight at her with a suspicious expression. “W-who the hell are you? And what do you want with Team Rocket?” The girl stayed silent, just smiling back at the group. Not even flinching, she simply kept silent. Even Giovanni himself had to raise an eyebrow at that, the girl either had serious guts or was just plain unaware of the danger she was in.

The strange girl spoke up, her voice eerily calm. “I mean no harm, honest…”“And I have no idea, what this “Team Rocket” even is!” If the recon team already wasn’t taken aback, they certainly were now. Everyone’s heard of Team Rocket, even in far off regions like Unova or Orre. The girl simply let out a soft laugh, taking a step closer to them. “It seems like you’re not from here, right?” “!!!!!!” As the rest of Team Rocket were stunned, their leader decided to break the silence. “Ah, it seems we have a guest.” The girl perked up, turning her head to stare directly at him. Giovanni continued, as she stayed silent. “I take it you’re like us then?” “Not originally from this world?”

The strange girl spoke up again, as her expression got happier. “Yes, you’ve got that right…” With a chuckle, she took a bow and introduced herself. “I am Susie, and I take it you’re the boss of “Team Rocket”?” Giovanni nodded silently, as he turned back to face Susie. A few of the more anxious Rocket grunts whispered in fear, their voices low. “You can’t trust her, Boss!” “Y-yeah, she seems like bad news….” Raising his hand in warning, Team Rocket’s leader made them shut up fast. Peeking back up at that, Susie didn’t hide her glee as she continued.

“You know, that name reminds me of a former employer of mine…” Susie took another step closer, as Giovanni raised another eyebrow in curiosity. “Oh? Do tell.” “My former employer was quite ambitious, our company was known throughout various galaxies and planets.” Now the Rocket leader was thoroughly intrigued, speaking up again he added with a chuckle. “That sounds like quite the company.” Susie let out a chuckle as well, nodding. “It was!” With a sigh, she happily clapped her hands. “But enough about the past!” “It seems like you need some help around here, after all it doesn’t look like you know your way around Dreamland just yet.” The Rocket boss frowned, it seems there was more to learn about this universe. “Dreamland?”

With another chuckle, Giovanni just turned back to Susie smirking. “Well, I’ll take you up on that offer.” With a bow, he introduced himself properly as well. “Name’s Giovanni, by the way.” She nodded, returning the gesture. “Nice to meet you properly, Giovanni sir!” “Likewise.” Giovanni’s grin widened, it seemed like this was the start to a powerful alliance… “Now, what else do you know about Dreamland?”
