The Deoxys and Mewtwo Lecture �?? Completed!

Uletin Storehouse May Have the Answers
______________________________________________________________________
According to former representatives from the Uletin pharmaceutical company, the specimen known as the Mew prototype Deoxys, the first of five failed attempts to create a clone of Mew since the decision to alter the remnant deoxyribonucleic acid, was reported to have escaped from the scrap vault in their storehouse in Louisiana and become active in the south-eastern USA and Cuba, in which mirages have appeared in view of all witnesses. Two weeks after the March 2001 disappearance, it was captured near the Cayman Islands and transported to Miami for studies. The figure of the captured Deoxys had, besides physical effects of capture, deep violet patches near the groins and brown blemishes in the temple. These characteristics, stated Alan Trudeau, were not recorded in the production of the prototype and were not indicated on the blueprint drafted by Uletin in 1967, two years before Mewtwo�??s violent change of heart caused the dénouement of its genetic repertoire.

Since its withdrawal from Vietnam warfare in 1970, Uletin confined Deoxys to a depot as scrap. The vault in which the creature was stored was left untouched until 1996, when Uletin went bankrupt after a lawsuit incited by the Board and liquidators opened the depot for real estate sale. In 1999, fifty-five chambers of the depot were demolished, with Deoxys�?? vault not among the area deeded for wrecking, and the area purchased by the Houma, Louisiana board of education for erection of a stadium. Two years later, a football match between the Houma and Levitz school districts was postponed when the remains of the depot began to glow ominously. Five hours after the match ended, the depot exploded, and Deoxys careened out of the rubbish through the roof as the tin was engulfed in flames. The stadium and nearby elementary school were badly damaged, and a 200-metre crater left behind was all that remained of the depot the next day.

In the aftermath of the explosion, the Louisiana De-partment of Education lodged a new lawsuit against the Board for the property damage. It was revealed that the liquidators that had sold the depot neglected to raze the entire depot, having retired from the task due to the inefficacy of the demolition materials. The Internal Revenue Service was indicted, and the liquidators were required to pay a total of $1.5 billion in damages, resulting in many of the resale agencies collapsing. A further $2.2 billion fine was imposed for neglecting to destroy Deoxys.

Although the Food and Drug Administration had ordered the liquidators to destroy Deoxys after the lawsuit, scientists in Miami refused to euthanize it after capture. A month would pass before Deoxys was permitted to return to the wild, this time with its potency degraded. The Board has tagged Deoxys and currently presumes that it resides in Armenia. Today Board representatives are investing energy in hearings about the depot explosion.

The Drawing Board
In 1958 Uletin, then a struggling pharmaceutical firm, stumbled across a skeleton and a series of decrepit, defaced ruins in Brazil, where a relative of Alexis Uletin, the dysfunctional founder of the firm, was holidaying. The relative, whose name Uletin never disclosed, agreed to exchange the skeleton, which still had hide attached to it, and fragments of the ruins, for $15 million. Uletin, born in Russia, was compelled to close the deal despite his financial anxieties because he had hoped to implement the ruins and skeleton in a new pursuit. Plus, at the time no extensive research was done on Pokémon at the time at a rate sufficient to raise awareness of the use of their bodies�?? properties.

Uletin ploughed a majority of his personal savings into developing a laboratory on a sandbar fifty kilometres from Houma, and studies were done on the skeleton to identify it as an extinct feline Pokémon species known to archaeologists as �??the divine Mew.�?? In archaeological terms, the population of Mew had dwindled in the Cretaceous period, and it was assumed that one species, possibly immortal, was left, but this species had evaded publicity for so long that it became conventional to register it as extinct. Using the deoxyribonucleic acid that had endured the test of time in the scraps of hide, the pharmaceutical company began combining duplicates of the DNA strands with blood samples from random feral Pokémon to spawn a line of potent hybrids that would be sold to the American Department of Defence, thereby eliminating Uletin�??s massive debt.

But the development of hybrids was not the ultimate vision for Uletin, and many of the hybrids used in battle in Vietnam were revealed to be androgynous, causing the development of defence in the war to stagnate. The hybridising industry waned quickly and the government reverted to traditional human drafting. Uletin, in the meantime, filled in the time between his employees�?? terms of labour in the medical facilities in using the stockpiled deoxyribonucleic acid of Mew to regenerate the species on a limited scale and retail them as pets.

However, with the influx of civil rights reformations, the trainer population of the USA increased from a laughable denomination of 1,900 �?? compared to 18,194,000 in Europe �?? to more than 500,000, Uletin began to have second thoughts. Archaeological studies suggested that Mew was docile and therefore was easy prey for dinosaurs, which themselves were already declining. Trainers would habitually condemn a Pokémon of that nature, and production of regenerated Mew would be a financial black hole in that case. To keep up with the decline of feral populations of evolved Pokémon, the company debated hotly about whether it should alter the stockpiled DNA and use it to create a series of superpower Pokémon.

Work on altering the nitrogen in Mew�??s DNA began in the fall of 1966, and by January 1967 the new DNA was ready for manipulation. The company hunters killed a Ty-rogue in North Carolina and mixed its DNA with the altered samples. Within two weeks the form of a new Pokémon presided over the bench. Uletin, elated by the success of the procedure, christened the new Pokémon Deoxys and recorded its characteristics in an application for a patent.

For the next three years Uletin was living lavishly off of the profit he made from selling clones of Deoxys �?? which were actually fledglings hatched from eggs incubated by a Ditto �?? to the army. The Deoxys clones were extremely powerful, granted, but, as Uletin failed to consider, they were hermaphrodite like the older hybrids, and they had a brief lifespan. Production of Deoxys continued until 1969, when the army and trainers �?? as well as investors �?? sued. The mother Deoxys was transported back to Houma and deposited in a vault in the old warehouse. The vault was sealed permanently, and Uletin began to experiment with two more hybridisations before deciding to use only the Mew DNA in the stock. On December 13, 1969, the Mew DNA, after being fortified with raw minerals, produced Mewtwo and resulted in the destruction of the sandbar laboratory. Uletin died in the disaster. Mewtwo was bootlegged by Giovanni DiLuzio, who had recently founded the criminal syndicate Team Rocket, and was confined to testing near Danville, Virginia, in which its power was amplified and tested before it reneged in 1993, following a reckless institution of an antihuman regime.

SURVIVAL
For thirty-one years Deoxys survived in the vault in Houma, unaffected by visitation by liquidators or the impact of Mewtwo�??s regime. It was also unbeknownst to Uletin miscreants that the Food and Drug Administration had ordered the euthanasia of Deoxys in 1975 out of fears that escalated during the Cold War with the Soviet Union. When the warehouse was demolished in 1999, the walls were examined to reveal layers of tin and asbestos, which delayed demolition for weeks before it was abandoned at savings of $22 million. During Deoxys�?? sojourn in the vault, the effects of disuse resulted in the accumulation of psychic energy, which modestly increased to dangerous levels at the time of liquidation. It would take two more years before the energy would build up, reawakening Deoxys. As a result, Deoxys regained its sense of mind and used its surplus energy to destroy its vault, endowing itself with freedom to enjoy the open air for the first time.

The irony behind this instance, however, was that Uletin scientists recorded that Deoxys had been euthanized, so no one expected it to accumulate energy in the sojourn. The euthanasia reports were nothing more than corporate fabrications �?? which were clear to the Food and Drug Administration �?? and the vault was guarded with stealth sensors and mirrors, which are now known to facilitate the development of energy in a Pokémon.

Another conundrum was how Deoxys managed to survive in the vault, which was devoid of oxygen. The reason for the false euthanasia documentation submitted by Uletin to the FDA was merely to assuage the fear of extensive inquiries, which would have been injurious to the firm�??s already struggling income. The truth was that Deoxys simply could not be euthanized, having been engineered to withstand illness and direct injury. Yet, having to spend thirty-one years in a vault under the hazard of suffocation, this immunity served well to prolong its lifespan, and to the surprise of the FDA and the Board, the reason that Deoxys thrived in the vault was that it performed better in areas without oxygen.

Deoxys was not the first anaerobic Pokémon to be spawned, as Gastly is known to thrive when there is no oxygen, resulting in nuclear station infestation. When the fact that storage in the vault was viewed as the only efficient means to dispose of failed Pokémon from the laboratory went public in 2001, the Louisiana Board of Sanitation pressed charges against Uletin and deprived them of their property in Houma. The Food and Drug Administra-tion also sued, and when the smoke cleared five former Uletin executives, including head Daniel Beavis, were sentenced to prison terms. A sign was erected at the ruins of the depot that Deoxys destroyed whilst escaping:

|Foreclosed by the Department of Sanitation for infringement of public order
|This is the property of the Cryptozoology Advisory Board

SPACE VIRUS
The design of Deoxys as Uletin envisioned during the gene splicing procedures was reported to be a carryover from a report issued by the Board on a mass of space particles that came into contact with dense water vapour in the troposphere, resulting in a form that closely resembled a Tyrogue and fell to the ground near Champlain, New York, USA, on 5 October 1958. Locals called the name of the form Deoxys as a result of the formation into a humanoid Pokémon. The Pokémon evanesced after eight months and all documentation made by the Board was discarded after tribunals a year later. However, archaeologists maintain that the form may still be producible, and sceptics have dismissed the Deoxys that escaped from the depot as another occurrence of this that took place over a prolonged period.

Alexis argued that the form of this celestial, evanescent Pokémon facilitated superior psychic performance in his report to his employees. The true reason behind this obsession was clear in a document he wrote before he died in the Mewtwo disaster:

"The fact that the firmament could produce such beautiful a living, breathing humanoid creature has fascinated me for many years and has compelled me to adopt this dream of developing a carbon line [sic] of Pokémon in turn. When I was presented with the DNA of Mew from my cousin, I thought back to the sessions of training that I had in Leningrad, and then I thought of the egocentrism of my classmates in their discrimination of strong and weak . . . I thought then to the heavens and wondered whether some sign could have provided me with the light that could help me realise my dream of proving useful to the Americans. When the Centre for the Research of Strange Occurrences [the Cryptozoology Advisory Board] announced the production of the Deoxys in the sky, it became my method, the mode for progress in this field of hybridisation . . ."

The Deoxys that resulted from the �??space virus�?? phe-nomenon was able to compact itself into a black triangle, assuming an effective camouflage. This ability was implemented in the Deoxys manufactured in the sandbar laboratory. What led to the downfall of the Deoxys, of course, was the presence of oxygen in the atmosphere, curtailing its indefinite lifespan to a mere twelve weeks. The fact that Deoxys could not perform aerobically was unbeknownst to Uletin when it decided to seal it in the vault, and it proved fatal to both the future of the company and its unemployed executives. Indeed, the Food and Drug Administration, having detected egregiously inaccurate and hesitant wording in the euthanasia papers, continued to hound Uletin until an employee submitted to questioning and broke the transportation story, which had never been kept on file by Uletin officials. Some proposal papers related to the transportation were even destroyed when the FDA turned a blind eye.

Next to regular scepticism denoting the Deoxys that escaped from the depot as the celestial Pokémon, there were extravagant tabloids assuring readers that there was competition between the carbon copy Deoxys that were shipped out to Vietnam and a series of Deoxys formed in the sky that evanesced after three days going unreported. At the time of the Deoxys development in the Uletin laboratory, the presence of chlorofluorocarbons in the strato-sphere facilitated the formation of many Deoxys, but as their births took place higher in the stratosphere, the lifespan of each Pokémon grew shorter and their appearances varied wildly. As a result, the truth was that each creature that resulted from celestial generation saw each other as enemies and died whilst staging violent battles. Uletin�??s Deoxys, similarly, habitually battled amongst themselves, both causing warfare to stagnate and the population of the humanoids to diminish at a rate so fast that investors in Uletin at the time saw fit to sue for billions of dollars at a time. With more than three-fourths of the total profit from the carbon copies up in flames from lawsuits, Uletin saw fit to discontinue the generation of Deoxys and began to take the copies of the Mew DNA and mix them with a variety of other deoxyribonucleic acids.

The Change of Heart
Out of the countless overnight obsessions with generating hybrids using Mew�??s remains, Uletin succeeded in creating eleven more forms, only two of which had longevity enough to be marketed. But the Army, left with red faces after the failure of Deoxys, was reluctant to purchase the new carbon copies. The preliminary line, a Mew and Sharpedo hybrid, was utilised in maritime warfare but evanesced after three days because they were left in the air for extended periods of time �?? the hybrids could not tolerate inert gases, one of which, argon, is present in good quantity in the air. The other line, a Mew and Salamence hybrid, collapsed and evanesced after five hours of monitoring the Demilitarised Zone because the wings were poorly developed for the tropical climate and monsoons.

Having now fallen $22 million in the red, Uletin Laboratories decided to give up hybridisation due to the conflicts between the genes commissioned by the two mixed deoxyribonucleic acids. But when it seemed like the company itself would evanesce, Giovanni DiLuzio, having himself recruited 2,200 members in Italy and the UK for the Team Rocket syndicate, paid Uletin enough of his savings to reverse the trend of financial loss that Uletin was experiencing due to the hybridisation flub to engineer a Pokémon for his personal use in October 1969. Uletin obliged, eager to accept the money from the retired anarchist financier.

The stockpiled Mew DNA was withdrawn and meticulously modified. This new blueprint rejected all attempts to hybridise it, and so it was delivered to the test chamber for refinement and sculpting. On 7 December 1969, the process was complete.

When Uletin visited the laboratory that day, he first opted to see the final product of the DNA refinement. As he stared at the figure that had formed the DNA sculpting fifteen minutes before, he noted that

| Mewtwo had a complexion of disturbance at the sight of me,
| inattentive to the procedures that my employees were doing on him to
| amplify its performance and please the [Team Rocket] syndicate.

Among the �??amplifications�?? were enzymes injected into the creature�??s body that were intended for fostering obedience, humanoid development, and natural communication with any animal or human. Two hours after Uletin arrived would pass before the doors to the test tube were finally sealed so that DiLuzio could take a look. DiLuzio was reported to be satisfied with the design of his new creature, but the staff�??s euphoria at creating the creature successfully was of no matter to him, as explained in a letter written to Uletin the next day. DiLuzio prophesied in the letter that the creature �?? whom DiLuzio had agreed with Uletin to affectionately call Mewtwo �?? would have enough power left over from the procedures to meet his specifications to possibly overrule the laboratory and escape.

Five days after the letter reached Uletin, on 13 December, DiLuzio�??s aspects as described in the letter would prove prophetic. Uletin decided to return to the laboratory one week earlier than DiLuzio�??s deadline to package Mewtwo and deliver it to him. As soon as he entered the room, according to a testimony made by a survivor:

"We all looked at Uletin, waiting for him to deliver an order as soon as he finished savouring the sight of Mewtwo in the capsule. Uletin told us to stand back as far as we could as he opened the control box. As he removed the tertiary base from the capsule, we saw Mewtwo quiver slightly inside the tubes, and one intravenous cord snapped. Uletin looked up to scrutinise the cord, when Mewtwo tilted his head before speaking in a deep, baritone voice to him.

�??Why am I here?�?? it moaned. No orifice opened as Mewtwo spoke, so it took a repetition before Uletin turned his attention to Mewtwo.

�??Why, you are the product of us, for the faith of the company,�?? Uletin replied.

Mewtwo leered at Uletin with obvious distaste. �??I, in this capsule, am to be a tool, an implement at the hands of an enterprise, the epitome of the flawed domestication of my biological brethren?�??

�??Yes,�?? said Uletin without a hint of fear.

Mewtwo quickly became upset. �??You have no idea,�?? it slurred, �??you have no respect for the lives we have to lead in the wild, out of the hands of a minority. To me you have no respect for anything other than yourself. You do not deserve to live, manufacturing me for solely your benefit!�??

With that all of the cords snapped cleanly from their foundation on Mewtwo�??s head and appendages. The capsule began to glow a blinding blue, and after ten seconds, the capsule exploded in a moment in which the earth could have stood still. Mewtwo hovered for a split second, charged spheres of energy, and sent them flying across the room, destroying everything in its path and manoeuvring throughout the top floors of the laboratory. As Uletin tried to flee from the scene, Mewtwo stopped him and summoned him to its hand. All Uletin could do was cry for help, but none of us were brave enough to go back. We fled the sandbar with everything we could salvage, and we watched as the energy spheres enveloped the laboratory, which then exploded. Uletin was still inside . . ."

Accordingly, a damaged videotape salvaged from the ruins by DiLuzio recorded Uletin�??s final words: �??We tried to create the world�??s most powerful Pokémon, and we succeeded . . .�??

When the flames finally died away and the laboratory was in smouldering ruins, DiLuzio arrived via helicopter to converse with Mewtwo. Mewtwo, ostensibly having recovered from its animosity toward Uletin, obliged to travel with him to the American syndicate outpost in Danville, Virginia. The promised money for Mewtwo�??s manufacture never changed hands, and Uletin�??s body was never found.

THE TRIALS
In the early years of the Team Rocket syndicate, more than half of the successful heists and submissions of mafias were attributed to the utilisation of Mewtwo. DiLuzio was seriously criticised for supposedly engineering Alexis Uletin�??s death to scarf up Mewtwo and Deoxys. The truth was different on the subject of Deoxys �?? five weeks after the Mewtwo incident, officials returned to the ruins and found the crate holding Deoxys unscathed. Deoxys was released from the crate and taken to the Houma headquarters for temporary storage, and was finally transported to the depot, six kilometres from the headquarters.

Mewtwo remained in the Team Rocket headquarters, servicing a myriad of Rocket expeditions and heists that were almost invariably successful. But with each success, Giovanni began to fret. He decided to test Mewtwo against active feral Pokémon populations, and in those trials more than half of the Pokémon it managed to defeat ended up dead. This performance augmented DiLuzio�??s fears of retaliation, which would connote the demise of the syndicate, and so he decided to take extreme measures to ensure that he would get the maximum potential from Mewtwo and not risk the syndicate�??s vivacity.

From 1985 onward, DiLuzio restrained Mewtwo in a set of armour designed to re-channel its energies. He then bought a dilapidated gymnasium in Texas and set up a Pokémon gymnasium, where he would exercise Mewtwo regularly. No winners emerged from the gym as long as Mewtwo remained in the opposition.

Mewtwo, in the meantime, seemed very content with its treatment in the Rocket facilities. The possession of Mewtwo was glorified as a valuable asset outside the syndicate as well as inside �?? two rival syndicates in Japan, Team Magma and Team Aqua, made several espionage attempts aimed at stealing Mewtwo, all of which were unsuccessful and culminated when they found the control of Kyogre and Groudon a more lucrative pursuit. As long as he had Mewtwo and Mewtwo was cooperating, DiLuzio felt that he could not have been more invulnerable.

Nothing, however, guaranteed that Mewtwo would remain loyal to the end. In November 1992, DiLuzio had travelled to the Viridian Gym with his Mewtwo in response to a trainer battle. The contender was Garrison Oak, renowned in the region to be an expert Pokémon trainer and a contestant on the local party ticket for entry into the Texas Pokémon League. The Mewtwo, when called forth to battle, performed brilliantly �?? but when it had come to play, one of the plates of armour had gone missing. Although this allowed for an extremely powerful attack that left all of Oak�??s Pokémon in critical condition, DiLuzio became upset and requested that Mewtwo be removed from the battle for inspection. The undersecretaries of the gym decided to instate the 58th Corps �?? which consisted only of James Croft, Jessica Stiller, and their pet Meowth �?? to run the gym, using the underling Pokémon that DiLuzio left for them. The trio lost to Ashley Ketchum, another trainer on the local party ticket that subsequently beat out Oak in the conference finals at El Paso. Two hours later, the gym collapsed when Mewtwo decided to renege against DiLuzio �?? realising DiLuzio�??s perpetual fears �?? and fled.

TEAM ROCKET'S RETALIATION
Mewtwo did not return to Team Rocket�??s auspices for two years, but the syndicate, now suffering in competition that began with the conviction of underworld boss �??Teflon Don�?? John Gotti, continued to pursue it. Mewtwo, meanwhile, engineered a storm system in the Gulf of Mexico and built its dominion on the sandbar where the Uletin laboratory stood. He then delivered a message of antiestablishment to hostage trainers that he lured to the island under the ambience of meeting the best trainer on the world party ticket, Muhammad Bisal, who had been killed in an automobile accident the week before. Two days passed before Mewtwo abandoned this pursuit out of compulsion reinforced by the hostages �?? including Ketchum �?? and obliterated all traces of the domain.

Mewtwo, despite all of the power that Uletin endowed it with, was hounded all the way to an oasis near Bishop, California, where DiLuzio staged a complete lockdown of where Mewtwo was assumed by locals to be hiding. The war raged for five hours, and all but four of the syndicate members that he brought along to help recapture Mew-two were killed in the battle. Although Mewtwo was completely deprived of its power and died three weeks later despite being nursed in captivity, the damage was so vast that the syndicate dematerialised in 1998, leaving DiLuzio destitute and on the lam.

When the depot exploded and Deoxys escaped, questioning of the former chief executive, Daniel Beavis, revealed that DiLuzio commissioned the manufacture of Mewtwo and did not show any remorse for Uletin�??s death, the authorities immediately looked to what was left of Team Rocket and, ultimately, to DiLuzio himself. On 15 January 2002, DiLuzio was located in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada, and arrested. The days of the Deoxys scare, having intermingled with the Mewtwo vogue, were over.

BEYOND THE AFTERMATH
None of the Uletin officials showed any sympathy for Giovanni DiLuzio when it was disclosed that he had been indicted for conspiracy to murder. Indeed, there was already a rumour that Giovanni had specifically commissioned Mewtwo to exhibit the characteristics of recalcitrance that led to Uletin dying, and that he had used the promise of £120 million, which in truth he couldn�??t provide, in his fatal sleight of hand. Throughout the series of preliminary inquiries and tribunals he and the remaining syndicate veterans had to endure, DiLuzio maintained that Mewtwo�??s attitudes toward the Uletin firm were not in accord with his commission, although he did not deny that he gave Uletin a warning to relate with Mewtwo with care. The officials and trainers that recovered their memories after the regime at the Louisiana sandbar gave a series of testimonials that all portrayed Mewtwo as a malediction.

With these testimonials conflicting fervently and DiLuzio�??s penury impairing his defence, the New York District Court convicted DiLuzio with obstruction of justice, embezzlement of company funds, conspiracy to murder (in the case of Uletin), and five counts of third-degree murder (in the case of the trainers dead as a result of the storm system Mewtwo created); the conclusion was that DiLuzio had interrupted the process of refining Mewtwo and contaminating the injected enzymes to build Mewtwo�??s spirit and, therefore, the decline of Uletin. While many of his underlings were given sentences ranging from twenty years to life, DiLuzio was condemned to death and rejected all requests to engage appeals until his electrocution in January 2004.

With DiLuzio on death row and refusing to come out, Rocket officials and scientists responsible for the management of Mewtwo went into hiding but to report have all been located and arrested.

POSSIBILITY OF COMPASSION: AGAINST GIOVANNI
An audiocassette recovered from the laboratory wreckage in 1977 documented what would be the first piece of evidence in the trial against DiLuzio. Between labour sessions, Uletin would enter the lab and muse over a solitary project at the other side of the capsule chamber. However, as Uletin wished to be alone during the out times, no one was certain about what he was doing. This audiocassette, which was only partially charred, changed everything.

Seven weeks before the Mewtwo breakout, Ulein�??s daughter, Sonia, known to friends as �??Ai,�?? the Japanese word for �??love,�?? was diagnosed with lung cancer, having been single and five months pregnant. While he occupied his labourers with processing hybrids for the army, he confined himself to a room at the end of the gallery to concoct enzymes to alleviate the cancer. The enzymes had to be discarded when, two days after the diagnosis, Sonia had evidently gotten into an argument with her current boyfriend about the effects of his abuse, which included forcing her to smoke in public, and ended up dead. Uletin went straight to the coroner and used a syringe to extract blood from her arm. The sample was then placed in a chamber across from that which held the Mew DNA, and was sculpted to bear the exact form of Sonia without the tumour. This was completed after a week.

While the Sonia clone was suspended from the floor by the intravenous wires, she would sporadically glance for a split second at Mewtwo, who would grin back. It was said that an employee overheard an intimate conversation between the two, which would have been extremely bad news for Uletin because DiLuzio designed Mewtwo to be apathetic. Thus, this word never was broken, and the intimacy carried on.

This pattern ceased after four days, when the DNA of Sonia could no longer hold and evanesced. Uletin cried for the entire day, ignoring the silent tears trickling from Mewtwo�??s eyes at the same time. Legend had it that Uletin�??s failure to resuscitate Sonia was the reason Mewtwo wanted out, rather than act as Giovanni prophesied.

ULETIN'S DEMISE
With the funds for genetic development up in flames as a result of the Mewtwo disaster, Uletin�??s successor, Richard Kaszlowski, saw fit to abandon the pursuit of genetic projects and had the firm revert to pharmaceutical practices. The Food and Drug Administration sent a message to Kaszlowski demanding that Deoxys, which at the time was in a capsule similar to the one Mewtwo was sculpted in, be euthanized once and for all out of the fears that it would assume powers that Mewtwo did and renege against the firm. Deoxys was hauled into the testing room, where scientists concocted a fluid with barbiturates and hydrogen peroxide and injected it into Deoxys. Rather than dying and evanescing as planned, Deoxys simply digested the fluid and grew. When all of the barbiturates that the scientists could provide were rejected or digested, Kaszlowski saw no choice other than storing and sealing the creature permanently.

The firm packed the Deoxys into a crate, forced all of the oxygen out of it, and transferred it to an abandoned armoury depot on the outskirts of Houma. Kaszlowski drew up a phoney report documenting the procedure of euthanasia and mailed it to the FDA to assuage their concerns. Uletin was then allowed to resume manufacturing its traditional neurodevelopment drugs and psychosocial supplements.
Kaszlowski managed to evade suspicion until 1979, when, in response to the Genetics Act countersigned by the High Council of the Cryptozoology Advisory Board, the FDA was ordered to evaluate the details of the report again. In each of the papers that Kaszlowski had written to conceal the bungled euthanasia procedure, auditors detected constant shifts to conflict with the psychophysical properties of the substances used in the barbiturates. This occurred so often that the FDA mailed another letter to Kaszlowski stating the falsity of the reports he had submitted. But by the time they got to the firm, on 9 January 1980, Kaszlowski was dead of a heart attack.

Daniel Beavis replaced Kaszlowski, and he invested as much energy as possible in avoiding altercation with the FDA until the depot explosion. Beavis submitted bogus �??revises�?? of Kaszlowski�??s reports to make the FDA happy, which lasted for only a few weeks before the auditors returned to work. This pattern led to pharmacies and dispensaries discrediting Uletin, and in 1998 the company filed for bankruptcy, exhausted from giving the FDA proof.

The string ran out for him at last in June 1999, when the Louisiana Board of Sanitation implicated Uletin for poor management of the depot; the fact that the depot was not visited since Deoxys was stored led to the formation of resistant mould on the walls, which thwarted demolition. When an official from Uletin leaked that Deoxys was not euthanized after all, Beavis was hauled in for an inquiry. The FDA dismissed the demonstrations of the examples in the reports as rubbish, and further investigation revealed that the reported examples were impossible to demonstrate. But the officials decided to let Beavis go until the explosion, when he was implicated again.

When Beavis�?? testimony was found to contradict properties evident in the escape, Beavis was arrested and tried for mail fraud. At the same time, Deoxys was active in the Caribbean, invoking expressions of awe. When it was captured and found in Miami to exhibit the exact same characteristics as that used in the Uletin sandbar laboratory, it was enough to give Beavis 25 years in prison. The Deoxys, its body having rejected all attempts to kill it, was released and auctioned at Sotheby�??s for £1.2 million, much to the disapproval of the Board. The current owner has requested that the Board not divulge his name for fear of being targeted by thieves.

How Psychic Pokémon Work
The Cryptozoology Advisory Board registered the proverbial Deoxys as a Psychic-type Pokémon because it shared a good deal more properties of Mew than those of the Tyrogue that was killed to create it. What the creatures lacked was the ability to carry on in battle, since they never had psychic spasms, which of psychic Pokémon inhibit performance but help concentrate power. The same held true for Mewtwo, having been confined to the armour that Giovanni commissioned.

At birth, a psychic hatchling experiences a series of violent spasms that help it escape the egg. The small proximity of the egg did not allow for radiation of psychic waves, and the reflection of these waves back to the Pokémon foetus caused the power to build up around the underdeveloped cerebrum, resulting in a spasm. About six weeks after conception, a series of spasms will cause the egg to shatter easily. The foetus itself cannot hatch without undergoing a spasm because at that stage its appendages are not completely formed and will not be used until five days after hatching.

When the child ages ten days, a complete seizure takes place when the nervous system temporarily shuts down to maintain the psychic power. The nervous system is not completely developed at that time and it is conventional for the body to enter a seizure to concentrate power; this continues into adulthood but in the form of less violent spasms. The first seizures last for no more than five minutes, when psychic energy escapes the body. The technical machine Psychic �?? currently internationalised as number 29 �?? forces the Pokémon to enter a spasm for three seconds and direct psychic energy at the foe at high intensity. Another move, now forbidden from instruction by the Board, is Psycho Boost, a technical machine that occurs extremely rarely in mature psychic Pokémon, that forces the user to enter a spasm and immediately exert a good deal of energy at an intensity so high that most of its tolerance levels are depleted.

The Board currently markets a technical machine for the move Calm Mind, which raises the tolerance levels of certain Pokémon and helps prevent most effects of spasms. It was originally engineered for psychic Pokémon to cancel all further spasms altogether, but it came to light that the spasms were to an extent beneficial and prevented aging. A similar move, Bulk Up, is on retail for Pokémon that do not utilise nonphysical attacks.

HOW MEWTWO WORKED
Mewtwo�??s skin was extremely hard when it was spawned, preventing spasms from starting. The benefit to Mewtwo in this case that it could exert an infinite amount of power, but its nervous system was adversely affected by this concentration. The brain became dependent on the energy for operation, resulting in an extreme breakdown after an attack was launched. In 1980, suggested scientists, the eradication of the Giuseppe Dellansandro mob in Chi-cago would not have been successful had complete destruction of the nervous system except for the brain and dependence on neuronal energy taken place around that time.

Since for most of its life Mewtwo�??s brain was impaired by the loss of nerves, prohibiting sensation, it had to resort to human instruction for its body to carry on. However, the armour that Giovanni kept on Mewtwo gradually reduced the firmness of Mewtwo�??s hide, allowing for extreme sensation and spasms. Under the influence of the armour, the nervous system began to regenerate until spasms occurred once a day to make up for the energy overload. The skin was nothing more than a thin layer of purple-coloured body fat before Mewtwo decided to re-nege on Team Rocket. The skin thickened over time, but the new spasms prevented it from hardening. Its blood, after being suspended by neuronal energy, found a home in fluid nerves that congealed after being separated from the main network.

When it died at a clinic in Reno, Nevada, the post-mortem examinations revealed that its organs had developed in a humanoid manner. An anus developed, as well as an extensive digestive system; it evidently learned how to eat. All of its energy was concentrated in the hide, like an Alakazam. Although the corpse was submerged in sulphuric acid after the autopsy, it never deteriorated, and it remains on display at the Board archives in Luton.

HOW DEOXYS WORKED
Unlike Mewtwo, Deoxys was a strict anaerobe. All appear-ances since the depot explosion included a deoxidised force field that prevented concentration of air. Deoxys could not tolerate oxygen for long and made a habit of generating the barrier when humans came near. Its name was derived from the word �??deoxidisation�?? because of this.

Conventional documents will note Deoxys as a DNA Pokémon, which only the specimen developed by Uletin matched. The �??space viruses�?? that were named Deoxys collectively had no genetic blueprint and did not tolerate air for more than twenty-four hours. The Uletin Deoxys, in contrast, could tolerate air for more than five years but performed significantly better without oxygen intake.

So if it performed well without breathing, why had it not escaped storage sooner? The primary Deoxys�?? rationale was only to breed with Pokémon, preferably Tyrogue, through reproductive wires attached to the pelvises and create instant eggs. This process drained energy from Deoxys�?? body to an extent at which it could easily contract a virus, having lost its ailment safeguard. The sojourn in the depot allowed Deoxys�?? body to repair itself and extract energy from the crate itself to fuel its power supply. In thirty years, the body would accumulate enough energy for surplus, allowing the specimen to escape from the crate, set up a deoxidised field for itself, and rocket out of the depot with devastating consequences.

While this whole thing was very interesting, one particular thing caught my eye:
Mewtwo and Sonia's intimacy.
