The sun rose slowly in the Kanto region as the 18 Ash Ketchum stirred in his bed. He yawned and rose in his bed as he looked over at his calendar. There were days marked off with only 30 left to go. The last one being the most important to him, the day he would start his pokemon journey. He had wanted to be a pokemon trainer ever since he was 10 years old, but due to safety laws that had been passed a month before his tenth birthday, trainers now had to be at least 18 years old and graduated from school before the pokemon league would issue a starter pokemon. Ash of course was disappointed by this, but had no choice to obey the law. But now his time was coming. In a week he was graduating, and two weeks after that he could take his entrance exam for the pokemon league. 


        For today though, he and his mother Delia had plans to go out to do some pre graduation preparation. They were going to go to a mod clinic to make sure that they both looked their best for the big day. Ash climbed out of bed and started to get ready. He quickly showered and got dressed in his favorite pair of jeans, blue and white jacket, and red and white green checkmark hat. He nodded to himself as he looked over himself in the mirror. He then grabbed his wallet and headed down stairs to meet his mom. 


        “Morning mom. What’s for breakfast," he said waving to her as he made it to the bottom of the stairs. She waved back at him and took another sip of coffee. Ash came over and sat across from her at the table, pouring a cup of coffee for himself. The pair sat for a while enjoying the warm coffee and biscuits she had made. Soon Ash put down his cup and looked over at his mom. 


        “So what is this thing that you’re going in for anyway,” He asked.


        “Well sweety, you’re going to go off on your own pokemon adventure soon, and your mother has been alone for quite some time since your father left. So with you leaving the nest like a grown Pidgiot, I’ve decided to throw myself back into the dating pool, and to do that, momma needs some fresh meat, if you know what I mean,” She said, giving a little wink. Ash blushed a little and took a sip of his coffee. Delia giggled a little and finished her cup. She then stood up and grabbed her purse off the table. 

        “Well no sense in putting it off, let’s go,” She said smiling and heading out the door. Ashe sighed and shook his head as he followed her out the door. The pair then hailed a cab to head into Saffron City. Once they made it into town, they walked around the downtown district for a while until they made it to the new mod shop in town. 


        Once they arrived, Delia spoke with the lady at reception, signing in to her appointment. The pair then sat in the waiting room for a while before Delia was called back for her procedure. During that time, Ash looked at the catalog of procedures that the clinic offered. There were some fairly basic ones, lip, breast, and nose surgery. There were also more intensive procedures like tummy tucks and face lifts. There were also more radical procedures like hand and limb replacements. Toward the back of the catalog however there was the most extreme ones of all, the experimental types. Full boy augments. Ash looked over them curiously, reading about them closely. He soon came across a clause in the fine print that would make the procedure free for volunteers. Ash was intrigued by the idea and started to look over the options in the catalog. He soon came across a section called Latex & Pool toys. He looked over it and grew more and more interested in the idea. Soon he came across one that really caught his eye. Salazzle pool toy. The model in the picture looked amazing to him. Busty, thick, and incredibly sexy. Ash smiled as blushed as he decided to go up to the counter to find out more. 


        “Hello. I was wondering if you could help me with getting a procedure,” He said to the lady at the desk. 


        “Oh! Of course. What were you looking to get,” She said, smiling at him. 


        “Oh well, I was looking at this one here,” He said blushing and handing her the catalog with the Salazzle page open. The Lady looked at it and then back up at him. 


        “Oh that’s an interesting one. Quite an expensive one though,” She said.


        “Yes well, it says here that the procedure is free for volunteers,” He said in a questioning manner.


        “Oh yes, that’s true. But to do that I’d need you to sign a waiver,” She said, pulling a clip board with the form on it out. She looked at Ash, expecting him to think for a moment and maybe back off, but instead he picked it up, read it quickly and signed the bottom of the page. She was surprised at that but took the clipboard from him before getting to her feet. 


        “Very well then. I’ll take you back and get you ready. I’m surprised you signed so fast. Not many people get this procedure after all. I’ve heard it’s quite the experience though,” She said, leading Ash though a set of double doors to a prep area. 


        “Well, if it’s free i’ll go for it, besides. I’m going to be a pokemon trainer and I figure it would be a fun thing to separate me from all the trainers,” Ash said smiling. 


        “Well It certainly will,” She said, turning around. “Well, wait here and get undressed. Someone will be with you shortly.” She then walked back out of the room, leaving Ash to himself. He looked around the room for a moment before starting to undress. There was a bin off to the side of a bench marked “patient personal effects” where he could put all his clothing. Soon he was completely naked, just sitting on the bench waiting. It didn’t take long before an opposite set of double doors on the other side of the room to open up. Ash looked over at them and watched as a pair of nurses and a doctor walked in, dressed in clean blue scrubs and gowns. 


        “Ah, Mr. Ash….Ketchum is it? We’re ready for you, if you’ll follow us.” the doctor said motioning to Ash to follow. Ash got up and followed after them, shivering a bit at the coldness of the hall they entered. They walked for a little while giving them time to talk. 


        “So Mr. Ketchum, what made you decide to go for this very radical procedure,” the doctor asked. 


        “I don’t know, just seemed like fun I guess,” Ash said, shrugging. 


        “Well this should be a fairly quick procedure. We’ll have you back out and ready to catch pokemon in no time,” The doctor said smiling. 


        They soon arrived at the operating room and headed inside. It looked much like any other operating room, shelves full of supplies, small instrument tables, monitors on stands, the whole set up. The biggest difference was the table in the center of the room. It was vastly different from the standard stainless steel table. There was a slight molded indentation in the table in the shape of the Salazzle he had seen in the catalog. He looked above the table and saw the other half of the mold. It has several hoses coming out of it all connected to a large tank of thick, bubbling black latex. The nurse touched Ash on the shoulder and helped him up onto the table. He shivered as his bare skin touched the cold steel table. 


        As Ash laid there, the nurses got him ready for the procedure. He watched as they sanitized his arm and put an IV into his right arm, making him flinch a little. They also gave him several injections into his other arm and legs. Ash blushed as he felt his body start to relax and feel numb as the nurses did their work. He then watched as the nurse to his right hooked up an IV bag of a weird pink liquid to his  IV line. 


        “What’s that,” Ash Asked both curious and a little concerned. 


        “This is what’s going to help get you to that perfect pool toy form. Inside and out. Just relax and let it work,” She said, putting a hand on his shoulder and giving it a pat. She then stepped back and went to help the doctor. 


        Ash turned his head back up to the ceiling and top mold. His body began to tingle as the strange drug began to flow through his veins. It also made his body begin to warm up, making him feel a little feverish. He swallowed hard and took a deep breath, trying not to focus on it. As he laid there, the other nurse pulled out a small box and a tube of rubber cement. As Ash watched as she opened the box and pulled out a large pool toy air valve. She then took the rubber cement tube and spread a thin bead of it along the bottom rim of the valve. She then pressed it onto his belly button. Ash blushed as he looked down at what would soon be his new air valve. The nurse then reached up to the top mold and pulled down an air hose, opening the valve and putting the hose in. She then walked around to his head and looked down at him. 


        “Alright, are you ready for this,” The second nurse asked. Ash blushed and nodded. He was a little nervous but excited at the same time. The nurse nodded to him and moved her hands over to a face mold that was separate from the body mold. She had him open his mouth as she threaded a tube down his throat and two smaller ones into his nose. It made him gag a little but he soon recovered. He then watched as she fully lowered the head mold over his own, plunging him into darkness. Meanwhile, the doctor got to work on the controls, lowering the top half of the mold down and sealing his body between it. Ash swallowed hard again as his heart raced, waiting for what was coming next. 


        He didn’t have to wait long as outside the mold the doctor typed commands into the computer and began the molding process. Ash heard outside of the mold as a pump kicked on, filling the air with a low hum. The tank above the mold shuddered a little as the thick bubbling liquid began to run down through the tubes and into the molds below. Ash swallowed hard again and waited as the latex slowly poured into the mold. He felt the first drops hit his forehead, then the second on his chest, then arms, until finally massive amounts of latex began to pour over his body. Ash moaned and shuddered as the heat of the latex made his skin tingle even more. His whole body began to feel like it was on fire, but at the same time was flooded with a weird pleasure he had never felt before. 


        Ash moaned into the tubes as the mold continued to fill around him. As it did, He left a strange new feeling. He couldn’t describe it if he tried, but it felt like his whole body was fluid and malleable, like he and the latex were one now. He was almost getting lost in a strange euphoria as his whole being began to shift and change. The drug from before was now starting to get to work on his body. His whole molecular structure began to open and shift, mixing with the latex around him to make him into a living latex creature. It set his whole body on fire and made him moan out in a weird mix of pain and pleasure. 


        Soon enough the mold was full of a strange mix of latex and person and the computer moved on to the next step, gender modification. A mechanical arm came up from below the table. It had attached to it a sculpted negative of a Salazzle’s vagina. It pressed it into a flap on the outside of the mold and into Ash’s crotch. Ash’s eyes went wide as he felt this happen. He, or now she, let out a moan of pleasure. It was a strange feeling having something pushed into his body, but not all unpleasant. The arm held the negative there as the latex formed around it while Another moved up and pushed into where his anus would be, drawing more moans from ash. Once both were in place, the system moved on to the next step. 


        While Ash continued to moan and wiggle in the mold, a large air compressor kicked on and began to pump air into the valve and into ash himself. Ash moaned out in pleasure as the air started to force her and the latex out against the edges of the mold. It left her with a strange empty feeling as her inside was replaced with nothing but air. After a Moment a new pink gas flowed down the hose and into Ash. She blushed and moaned more, slowly beginning to sound more female by the moment as the gas was a concentrated form of the pheromones that Salazzles were known to breathe out. She shifted in the mold as her mind slowly became more and more female by the moment. Her new sex quivered around the mold as she found new pleasure in being the female she was becoming. 


        The air compressor and gas flow continued for several minutes while the mold began to heat up. This was to help harden and vulcanize the latex into a durable rubber. Inside the mold, the heat brought even more pleasure to Ash, making her moan loudly as she reached a new climax that she never had before as a male. Her whole body quivered and shook with the pleasure of it all, her mind awash in a mixed sea of pheromones and pleasure. Her high continued for several minutes as the molds finished the process and began to cool down. 


        Once everything had cooled, there was a soft hissing as the mold cracked open. The top half slowly began to rise up, revealing the new Ash Salazzle. Though she wasn’t quite done yet. With the main molding done, all that left was painting. While Ash laid there on the table, the nurse came up and removed the air hose, closing her new valve. Ash shivered, her blank face giving away nothing as the empty black rubber only shook. Once the nurse had moved, the computer continued its work. Sprayers came down from above along with stencils and began to go over her body. They painted her belly with the purple under belly and then her tail and belly with the pink flame pattern. They then got to work, painting her face with the mouth and eyes, helping to give her some expression. It took a few minutes to dry, but once it had her face began to react and change. She began to blink and look around the room, unsure for what to do next. 


        Once the process was done, the nurses came over and helped her off of the bed and to her feet. She wobbled as she tried to get used to her new stance. It was so foreign to her to be in a new body so suddenly, but soon she was able to take a few steps without help. The nurses helped her over to a bench and let her sit down to rest. She sat there, panting heavily as she tried to recover from the whole experience. While she did the Nurses brought over a mirror for her to see her new body. 


        Ash looked over herself in shook. She was now a large anthro rubber Salazzle. Same body shape to the real thing, just a few minor differences and a little shorter than she was before. She blushed as she ran her hands over her body, listening to the squeaking and creaking of rubber on rubber as she moved. She cupped her new c-cup breasts, giving them a gentle squeeze and blushing as she felt how sensitive they were. She then moved her hands down to her now wider hips and thicker thighs. She blushed and gave them a squeeze, feeling just how soft she really was. Her hands then ventured down to her new folds as she spread her legs. She ran her fingers over the outside and marveled at how detailed they had gotten it. Her lips were just slightly stretched, making her ready for any action she would want to take part in. She blushed and moaned as she slipped one of her new longer fingers between them and felt her insides. They were perfectly ribbed and detailed, almost built like a toy.  She moaned and shivered, her eyes closing as she almost lost herself to the pleasure of it. Just then one of the nurses came over and stopped her. 


        “Easy now, you don’t want to wear yourself out like that,” She said, helping her to her feet again. “Com on, let's get you dressed and back out to your mom. She should be done with her procedure by now.” They then went back out to the waiting room where her old clothes were waiting. Ash blushed as she realized her old clothes were too small for her now, and pressed into her body. She was forced to leave her shirt open, showing off her new breasts. She then walked back out to the lobby where Delia was waiting. At first She didn’t recognize Ash, but then gasped as she saw what she had done. 


        “Ash! What have you…I mean…what….,” She said trying to find her words.


        “Hehe, hey mom. Surprise,” She said, waving to her as she walked closer. 


        “Ash what did you do,” She asked, reaching out to touch her now daughter. 


        “I got some work done, just like you. And I guess it should be Ashley now.  I’ll definitely stand out in the pokemon league now,” She said giggling a little.


        “Yeah but…I mean wow…” She said, lost for words. “Is it safe?”


        “Oh yes,” the nurse interjected. “It’s completely safe. She is now a 100% living pool toy. Just need to sign this form and you two can be on your way. And don’t worry about her being caught like a pokemon. While modded people like yourself can be caught, you have to give permission first, otherwise the balls will bounce right off of you,” She said, handing a clipboard to Ash. She looked over the form, it being for her new identification as a living pool toy. She signed off on it and handed it back to the nurse. 


        “Thank you, We’ll have that license mailed to you in a few days. Thank you for using Saffron city Modifications, and you have a nice day,” She said smiling and waving as the pair walked out the door. 


        “Well, I guess we should go clothes shopping now,” Delia said blushing. “Can’t have you wearing clothes that tight for long, otherwise you might pop.”


        “Yeah,” Ashley said giggling and blushing bright red. The pair then continued on their way. After a while, Ashley stopped and tugged Delia on the arm. 


        “Hey mom, I know it sounds weird, But can you catch me,” She asked, blushing bright red. Delia too started blushing and looked her daughter in the eyes.


        “Hunny, are you sure about that,” She asked, making sure. 


“Yes mom. I want you to catch me. That way, I’ll always have a home, and no one else can catch me,” She said, nervous but more confidently. Delia blushed more and looked at Ashley. 


        “Alright, For you,” She said. The pair then went to the nearby pokemart to get the pokeball. Delia wanted to make this special, so she selected a love ball. Once it was bought they headed back outside and stood in the bright sunny day staring at each other. 


        “Are you sure about this dear,” She asked one more time. Ashley nodded and held her nose out, waiting. Delia then pressed the ball to her, opening it up and sucking her inside in a flash of light. She then quickly caught the ball in both hands before it hit the ground. The ball shook once, twice, three times, then clicked softly. Delia smiled and gave the ball a kiss before looking at it lovingly. She then smiled, tucking the ball into her purse and heading back to catch a taxi to head back home. Her own pokemon she could always count on to come back home.
