Chapter no.270 Grandpa Canyon

[ POV Change ]
( ~ Crack ~ )
The sounds of excavation echoed throughout the canyon.
The place of the turmoil was the great Grandpa canyon located in the northern part of Kanto.
Groups of trainers, archeologists and other people had made Grandpa Canyon their home as they dug up the fossils of the beasts that once roamed this great land millions of years ago.
Grandpa Canyon is theorized to have been a great water lake where pokemon from the surroundings migrated to during the Mesozoic Era.
Austin and Yellow reached the canyon entrance the next morning, following the markers and the crowd to the dig site within on rhyhorn's back,Austin held him tight with Yellow practically hugging Austin the whole way there.
Austin had order the rhinoceros to charge ahead, hoping that doing so would save some time. He had learnt it the hard way that contrary to other terrestrial pokémon like Arcanine, rhyhorn could only run straight, irrespective of any and all boulders and obstacles that might be unfortunate enough to be on its way but the thrill was addicting so he had made it his goal to learn to at least ride Rhyhorn.
"So this is Grandpa Canyon!" Yellow exclaimed, looking the reddish-orange cliffs over.
" Why are we even here if we have a few fossils with us ?" Yellow curiously asked Austin who was sweating profusely, trying to slow down Rhyhorn who didn't seem to stop.
" Come on, stop !"
Austin's words finally penetrated through Rhyhorn's thick skull but the sudden stop of the pokemon caused Austin and Yellow to be thrown out from Rhyhorn's back.
Rhyhorn stared at Austin's hat with a few sparks in his eyes before chewing on it.
Austin meanwhile cleaned himself before outstretching his head out to Rhyhorn who just stared on while chewing the hat.
Yellow sweatdropped as she saw Austin and Rhyhorn having a staredown with one another before Rhyhorn spat out the hat.
....
It didn't take very long, as an annoyed Austin and a giggling Yellow followed the chatter and the tire tracks into something approaching a valley in the canyon, filled with people and tents everywhere.
"Wow," Yellow noised. "That's a lot of people for so early in the morning."
"Most of them have probably been here for a while," Austin said as he glanced at the article on the Pokenet. "They didn't open the place up to the public until recently due to an attack on this place from team rocket a few months ago where team rocket captured alot of Rhyhorns which resulted in the archeologists getting access to an area of Grandpa Canyon that was the territory of the Rhyhorn tribe where they found a fully intact fossil, and they wanted to get it out of the way before looking for more."
" That is great and all but why are we here ?" Yellow asked.
" I have a pokemon I want to catch in this place."
" Oh, what is it ?"
" It's going to a surprise."
Austin said as he stopped himself when he saw a group of people ahead.
Channeling aura into his ears, Austin heard what the group was saying.
" Hey, did you see those footprints which have been roped off, and even an Aerodactyl skeleton—they've already started the plaster wrap so they can load it up and take it to the Pewter City Museum."
" Wasn't that just a rumor ?"
" Yeah, at first I thought so too but after seeing it first hand, I couldn't believe my eyes."
...
" Hey, wasn't that Professor Oak's grandson ?"
" Yeah, little shit found a fossilized Pokémon manure, but he's searching for something a little bigger like a madman."
.....
Austin sweatdropped before shaking his head and turning back.
" Shouldn't we go down there ?" Yellow asked but Austin shook his head and pointed at a forest near the canyon.
" Nope, we aren't going to find the Pokémon I want in the canyon."
" There were is it."
" Under the canyon."
" ..... "
" ... "
" What ?" Yellow asked incredulously.

[ Cerulean City - Cerulean River ]
[ Abandoned Power Plant ]
Pokemon of the electric type stared on in awe and in horror as they saw the sky covered in the abyss of dark clouds as streaks of lightning shot through the abyss illuminating the meeting of two Gods.
The members of Team Rocket were shaking in their boots, scared out of there mind as they stared at the back of the entity known as Mewtwo who said.
" I am a God, I will live forever. You on the other hand, will fall."
Mewtwo's words were directed at the one of the children of the Avian God of Thunder, Zapdos.
Zapdos's body glowed with ethereal lightning as the Demigod's call was like switch that caused the dark clouds of the abyss to direct their lightning like a hammer of God judging upon the mortals who claims divinity.
The giant bolt of lightning caused Mewtwo to smile and exclaim.
" I am the great traitor to this world. There must be no other. If I, Mewtwo, want the birds to drop dead from the trees… then the birds will drop dead from the trees. I am God. The earth I pass will see me and tremble."
With a wave of his hand, Mewtwo stopped the entire bolt of lightning falling upon him before turning towards Zapdos who felt an extreme sense of danger engulf him.
" If I, Mewtwo, want the Gods to fall then so shall they."
Mewtwo's eyes glowed with an azure glue before he threw the bolt of lightning towards Zapdos as if he was mocking him that he would bring the Demigod of thunder, with a bolt of lightning itself.

[ Omake Paragraph ]
Unlike their evolved form of Kingler, a Krabby's joints are quite feeble; it is quite common for their large pincers to break off in battle. The pincers grow back quickly (although the Krabby is somewhat limited in their movement ability in the meantime) and many trainers even harvest them for sale.
It is not a Krabby's natural strength but the design of the pincer which gives them their effectiveness, and they work just as well when operated by a human or attached to machinery. Some are used to crush rocks into powders or break open pokemon like Clamperl or Geodude, while others are used to crush the necks of condemned criminals. Although this is often considered overkill, they are even used in the preparation of food, as nutcrackers, can openers, or simply in a role similar to silverware.
One of the first ritual prohibitions seen in the pokemon world was that of using these pincers on Krabby or Kingler meat, which was thought to anger the gods and disrespect the dead. It has made its way into many religions, but not all: the followers of Groudon and the Regi trio make a habit of eating Krabby whole as a show of contempt towards the sea.
