Transformation Serum

The Transformation Serum (OTS for short) is a formula created by Hathor from Sekhmet's DNA to transform anthropomorphic Pokémon and real-world animals into ordinary versions of themselves.

## Properties

### Effects

Reverts anthropomorphic Pokémon and animals back into regular versions of themselves

## **Appearance and Design**

The serum is a clear, odorless, yellow liquid that can be loaded into a variety of projectiles, such as syringes, blow darts, arrows, or bullets. The projectiles themselves can be inserted into a multitude of weapons such as bows, crossbows, guns, and slingshots. The serum itself can also be sprayed from spray cans or expelled as a gas. It has been described to taste like lemon extract.

## **Detailed Description of Effects**

When the serum enters the body of an animal or Pokémon (by injection, ingestion, inhalation, or any other means of absorption), they will almost instantly revert to an ordinary version of themselves. Upon transformation, their intellect decreases quickly and drastically. Depending on the individual's species, their size may or may not also decrease. Whatever clothes they're wearing will fall off. In short, the serum strips the individual of all their sentience, leaving them to rely solely on their natural instincts to survive.

However, the serum does not affect mythical creatures and Legendary and Mythical Pokémon due to their immense power. Humans and humanoid creatures like Nautolans are also unaffected since the serum contains no chemicals that are harmful to their bodies. Sekhmet is immune to the serum since it was made from her own DNA.

## **History**

### ***The Blood Queen***

#### **Chapter 9: A Failing Rebellion**

Sekhmet, Horus, and Mortimer, being the only three survivors of the three trials, are forced to accompany Hathor and her other Pokémon subordinates to quell the rebellion that many of Memphis' residents have instigated to overthrow the queen. The trio watch as Hathor and her subjects take up guns and begin shooting darts filled with the Transformation Serum at the anthropomorphic animalistic individuals. Many citizens watch in horror as those struck by the serum darts revert to ordinary versions of their species. The first individual to be transformed is a Sceptile named Gavin, a former construction worker. Gavin, after reverting to a regular Sceptile, runs off. Hathor explains about the serum she made, sending everyone into a panic. The queen orders her subjects to chase down the rebels and imprison them, adding to transform them if they resist. Many of the subordinates obey, and those who refuse are transformed after being hit with the serum darts. Hathor joins the chase, gleefully shooting rebellious animals and Pokémon who cross her path.

Sekhmet and Mortimer watch as horrified Horus stops Hathor from transforming an elderly Espeon by using Teleport to get the senior citizen to safety, causing Hathor to miss the shot. Hathor angrily glares at him and demands why he interfered, to which an angered Horus responds that what she's doing is wrong. Enraged, Hathor shoots Horus with a serum dart. She and everyone else watch as Horus winces in pain. However, the serum has no effect on him, and he angrily rips the dart off his chest, glaring at a stupefied Hathor. Horus hears an anguished scream in the distance and flies off toward the sound, dodging all the serum darts Hathor's guards fire at him.

Hathor then decides to test the serum on Mortimer and has a Garchomp shoot a dart at him. Mortimer is also unaffected, and he angrily retaliates by firing a super-effective Ice Beam at the Garchomp, incapacitating him. Sekhmet, fearing her friend is in danger, uses Dark Pulse on Hathor, who angrily shoots her with a serum dart. Sekhmet roars in agony as the serum enters her body, causing white-hot pain. However, she doesn't feel herself transforming and realizes the serum has no effect on her. She turns to Hathor, unfazed, and the latter realizes she's immune to the serum since she used her DNA to make it. Sekhmet finally snaps, having suffered enough cruelty; she transforms into her true form and roars in rage, attacking Hathor and her subjects. The soldiers shoot serum darts at her, but they have no effect. Sekhmet goes on a rampage, killing most of the guards and anyone else who hits her with the serum darts. The remaining soldiers, realizing the darts are ineffective against Sekhmet, drop their guns and flee. The kitsune spots Hathor fleeing and starts chasing her, shaking off all the serum darts in the process.
