Erik had one job. One job.
Keep the kid out.
But somehow, someway, an eleven-year-old with a Pikachu waltzed right through his security checkpoint, breached the most secure Team Rocket facility in Kanto, and left behind a smoking pile of stolen intel, knocked-out grunts, and a critically endangered experimental Pokémon missing from its containment pod.
Grunt Erik always thought failure meant death. That was how Team Rocket worked—strict, ruthless, absolute. But as he stood before the Executive Tribunal, stripped of his rank, his weapon, his dignity, everything but his uniform, he realized something far worse awaited him.
Giovanni’s smirk told him everything.
Because Team Rocket didn’t waste resources.
It recycled them.
-
The room was sterile, brightly lit in a way that was designed to be clinical, impersonal—merciless. The kind of place where Team Rocket dealt with problems.
Erik was confident, because they didn't restrain him. Maybe they just wanted to intimidate him? A slap on the wrist before going back to guard duty?
A pulse of green energy arced through the ceiling, then suddenly striking his uniform like it was a lightning rod. His Team Rocket uniform was still intact—black, with the red "R" blazoned across his chest—except now there was something different about it. It started to restrict, change, melt...
Then the screaming started.
It wasn’t like fire, or electricity, or pain in any conventional sense. No, this was molecular horror, a slow unmaking of the self, from the inside out.
Erik thrashed as the black fabric liquefied, sinking into his skin, becoming a second layer of flesh that clung unnaturally close. His arms and legs tingled, his gloved fingers curling in as his digits lengthened, becoming unnaturally elegant, delicate—wrong.
The boots? Gone. His feet reformed, elongating, morphing into slender, smooth appendages that barely even felt real. His breathing hitched, and when he turned his head, he saw the most horrifying thing yet.
His own reflection.
A mirror. The bastards had made sure he could watch.
The first thing he noticed was his hair—still his, the same blond mop he’d always had—but now framing a face that wasn’t quite his anymore. His jaw had narrowed, his cheeks softened, his mouth plumper—and his eyes.
God, his eyes.
Still the same color, still the same prescription behind those glasses—but huge, doll-like, alien.
Then his waist caved inward.
The change was slow, creeping. His chest flattened against itself for a moment before pushing outward, a growing weight budding, pressing against his suit—no, his skin. Tingling, hot, unbearably sensitive.
His spine arched involuntarily as his pelvis cracked, hips surging outward into something impossible to ignore.
His throat tightened as his voice hitched, the deep, rough gravel of his tone shrinking, dissolving into something breathy, high-pitched, unmistakably female.
“No, no, no—FUCK, stop!”
But the heat was only growing.
The red crest erupted from his chest like an organ shoving its way to the surface, pulsing with something wrong, something hungry. His legs thinned to tiny sticks with feet so small they were absurd, his thighs? Reshaped into long, sensual curves, smooth as silk. The final form of a creature designed for allure.
And the worst part?
His mind was changing, too.
Oh, the memories remained—the shame, the rage, the horror of what had been done to him—but now they were buried beneath something else.
Something insatiable.
He felt them. Every single person in the room. Their thoughts, their judgments. Their lust.
Rocket Admins lined the walls, watching with fascination, amusement, and something deeper. Something darker.
She shivered.
Wait—she?
"No. No, fuck no, I’m not—"
But the word had already been accepted, slipped too easily into her consciousness, nestled between the lingering memories of her old life like a parasite preparing to take root.
She clenched her thighs, swallowing down the deep, primal urge curling in her stomach.
They were testing her.
Seeing how much fight she had left.
But they all knew the answer already.
Her defiance? It was only for show now.
His cock—his last vestige of masculinity—burned like ice, a numbing, sinking sensation spreading from his groin inward. He grabbed between his legs in blind panic and felt it shrinking, receding, smoothing over into nothing. A fresh, alien heat bloomed there, a pulsing, wet hollowness where something else now resided.
His team members laughed.
"Oh shit, look at his hips! You see that? You could park a bike between those thighs!"
"That’s not Erik anymore. Look at those tits—what’s she gonna do, psychic handjobs?"
"You think she’s still got a dick? Hey, Erik, still got your—oh. Guess not."
He gasped, voice cracking into something high and musical, a breathy whimper that felt obscene coming from his throat.
His hair—his hair was still the same. Blonde. Unruly. But it now framed a delicate, inhuman face. The final betrayal. He could see his own eyes in his reflection, but they were set in a woman’s face, a sultry, Gardevoir-like visage built for pleasure, obedience, and submission.
And she was ready.

The Hostess of Rocket’s Finest
The club was luxurious.
Red velvet walls, black-gold carpeting, dim chandeliers casting soft glows across circular lounges filled with executives, VIP trainers, and Team Rocket’s highest rollers.
And she—Erik—stood center stage.
Her dress clung perfectly to her newly sculpted curves, split up the sides to tease the white-furred legs beneath, the cut low enough to display the pulsating red crest at her chest, thrumming with psychic warmth.
She smiled, because it was expected of her.
Because she knew what her purpose was now. She had failed as a guard, so she had become a Gardevoir...
Because a Gardevoir existed to serve... in any way her masters demanded of her.
