Red snuggled up against Lance as they slept in their enclosure. The scientists watching smiled.

Three fuzzy balls slept next to them. It had been a success – the first Champions bred in captivity. What an achievement!

Lance was a bit perplexed. He and Red weren’t supposed to have cubs yet. What would they do? Their territory was so small, and what with the food… but as he thought, he shook his head. It was all right. The humans would probably provide for the cubs too, and at least this way he didn’t have to fight wandering Yellows…

He curled up around Red and their cubs as he fell asleep again.

Red awoke and glanced around for danger. Finding none, he smiled, licking his mate’s cheek, feeling warm and safe.

And since I’m on a kick, more Zoofic… and this is the only way I’ll let Red and Lance have children. MPREG I don’t like much… and more fluff! And yeah, Lance and Yellow are natural enemies.

Some Zoofic Information I have complied (I created this!)

Lance and Red are members of a species called ‘Champions’ who only mate with each other. Their pokemon are summoned as they acquire ‘shinies’ (gym badges) and grow older. Their pelt patterns also change then. Young Reds wear a blue pelt (jeans) and black pelt (black T-shirt), and as he grows older he acquires black hand-pelts (his electric-proof gloves), a red-and-white head pelt (League cap) and red-and-white outer pelt (red-and-white jacket). Young Lances were a pure black pelt (black bodysuit), and as they grow older, acquire the red and black pelt (red-and-black bodysuit of anime! Lance). Then, if they get evil enough or fierce enough, they grow a pure black pelt with a red over-pelt and a black pelt over that (manga! Lance attire with red jacket and black cape).

Lances hate Yellows. They are both predators but attack each other. Yellows will kill both Reds and Lances, though if they kill a Red that already has a Pikachu, they will steal it.

Lance’s partner pokemon is Dratini who soon evolves into Dragonair. Red’s partner pokemon is Poliwag who soon evolves into Poliwhirl.

Red is the one who carries the babies, though some strange reproductive process (MPREG?) and Lance has sharp claws and teeth that he hunts with. He provides food for his mate.

Brothers will mate each other.

Manga! Lance has healing powers and can communicate telepathically with pokémon, so that stays.
