It's finally time, I get to write a Pokemon Ranger story starring Ben and Summer! YAY! I know this story has beem done MANY, MANY, MANY times, but I couldn't resist. This is my style, people! From Ben's POV.

Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN ANYTHING. Except what I'm gonna change in the future.


Ben's POV

I, along with my partner, Summer, were flying high in the sky, heading towards Oblivia for a extremely important mission. Suddenly, a Latios and a Latias flew right past us, almost knocking me off of my Staraptor. And following right behind them was some people flying on a hovercraft thing. I looked at Summer and she looked at me. We gave each other a nod and chased after them.

Those people were shooting some kind of beam at the Eon Duo. The girl cried, "Give it up already! Do you really think you can get away from us?!"

The guy yelled, " They just don't know when to give up!" Both of them sped up to Latios and Latias. Just then, my Staraptor gave a cry and I flew up. "Red goggles, a yellow scarf..."

"And a Capture Styler..." mumbled the girl.

"You're...a Pokemon Ranger!" exclaimed the guy. I rolled my eyes, was it really that hard to tell? My styler gave a beep.

"You adversaries are using Pokemon to attack. Please capture the Pokemon to calm it down." said Voice Nav. I rolled my eyes again. Seriously! Shouldn't I know that already? I actually graduated Ranger school, you know!

A Pidgey flew up and I captured it with ease.

"Really? A Pidgey? Man, I thought you people could do better." I mocked.

"Feh! Not only was our Pidgey captured, our target out away! It's hard to believe someone like you could pull off a midair capture like that. You're something else!" said the guy.

"I sure am! Thanks for the compliments." I smirked.

"Grr...Oblivia's very peaceful. We don't need a Ranger like you!" cried the girl.

"Sure, you don't." I rolled my eyes for the third time today.

The guy grumbled. "This is how we dispose of people like you! With a Plasma Cannon!" And the guy shot two plasma balls at me. I barely dodged them. "How did that Ranger manage to dodge my attacks?"

I snickered. "Cuz' I'm awesome!" Okay, maybe I'm getting a little cocky.

"You're good...but let's see if you can handle our double-team attack!" exclaimed the girl.

Voice Nav. beeped and said, "Picking up strong energy reactions. Guide your Staraptor and dodge enemy attacks!" Yeah! I already know that!

The duo began their attack and I dodged most of them, getting hit only a few times. Argh. It kinda stings. Man, and I thought plasma balls aren't THAT painful.

After a little bit, the guy grunted, "Oh no! My Plasma Cannon's battery is dead!"

"Mine's too! Scaring our targets with wild firing might not have been the best idea..." mumbled the girl.

"Sure wasn't!" I cried.

"Well, I guess we'll just have to ram 'em!"

"WHAT?!"

"Are you sure you want to do that?" said a mysterious voice. "Now you'll have to deal with two rangers!" It was Summer! She flew beside me and said, "Need help? 'Cuz it sure looks like you do."

"Oh no! There was more than one of them!" wailed the guy.

"The Plasma Cannons aren't working. Rangers keep popping up. I'd hate to say it, but we're gonna have to retreat!" admitted the girl.

"Wait! There's one more on our side now!" said a strange voice.

Suddenly, a man with a red hovercraft thing popped out of the clouds. He had blonde hair with a red stripe on it, wore a red vest and black shorts.

The guy cried, "Our leader! They're Pokemon Rangers!"

The red dude said, "I can see that. This is the first time I've seen a flying Ranger though. Two aerial brats putting on airs with their bright red goggles and yellow scarfs. What a joke!" he shouldn't have said that. This would be the time that Summer would talk back.

"Who's a joke? You're the leader of a team who couldn't handle a couple of "brats"!" yelled Summer.

"You there...do you know the consquences for talking back like that? I have just the sport for a tough-talking brat like you. Skydiving...without a parachute! Take this!" the red dude shot out some plasma balls, but I knew what was coming and blocked it from hitting Summer.

"SUMMER!" I cried before taking the hit.

I was falling through the clouds, glad Summer was safe...or so I thought. There was Summer, right beside me. Apparently, I shielded her, but those plasma balls were stronger than I thought and she was pushed off her Staraptor because of the pressure.

"Summer! Put on your AquaLung!" I yelled.

"Why?" asked Summer.

"We're hurdling into the ocean!"

"Oh. I thought we were in Oblivia by now."

"WE ARE!"

"Oh. Well, okay!" Summer put on her AquaLung just before she hit the water.

Once we were in the water, Summer's Voice Nav. said, "The Capture Styler has come off! Urgent! Reattach the Capture Styler! The Capture Styler has come off! Urgent! Reattach the Capture Styl...er..." Voice Nav. faded away.

Summer looked down. A Mantyke has taken it! Summer took off after it, and I followed. We chased it, dodging all the bubbles the Mantyke shot at us, Summer taking a few hits, as well as I. Eventually, we caught up to it and the Mantyke let go of Summer's Styler. We swam to the bottom and we found the Styler in the middle of a crumbled ruin. Summer picked it up and reattached it.

Suddenly, both of our Voice Nav.'s went off. "Danger! Danger! Massive object approaching!" then there a huge rumble, Summer and I looked at each other and looked around. "Danger! Danger! Extremely strong current! The current is zzz zzz zzz..." Voice Nav. wasn't responding. Summer and I started panicing and at that very moment, Summer grabbed my hand and held it as tight as she could before the current hit us and we were swept away. I heard Summer attach something before everything went black.


"Attention Z.Z. Flyer Squad! Our target is Dolce Island! Commence attack now!"

One Z.Z Flyer flew out first, than followed nine more.

The leader cried, "Alright, Pinchers, let's go! Dolce Island is uninhabited, so we can do whatever we want, and nobody's here to see!" and he flew off, followed by the rest.

At Dolce Island, there was a Pichu playing music for other Pokemon, they were all enjoying their time there. The Pichu looked up and there was the Pinchers, heading towards them. The Pokemon scattered with the Pinchers following them. Each Pincher shot out a purple ring beam at the Pokemon, controlling them and making them disappear. After a while, the Pinchers left with their Control Gauntlets. The only Pokemons left were a Pichu and an Eevee.


Flashback

"Young Pokemon Rangers. I've heard so much about you. I'm Professor Hastings, the Ranger Union's Chief of Technology. Are you familiar with my work? ...no need to answer that. I called you both here because I have an extraordinary Mission for you two." said Professor Hastings.

"An extraordinary Mission?" asked Summer.

"I'm sure you've heard of this. There's an awful group of people who control Pokemon and take them from their homes. They are called...Pokemon Pinchers!" Summer and I sweatdropped. Did he really have to pause for a dramatic effect? "Up until recently, the members worked independently, but now these Pokemon Pinchers are starting to become a unified outfit. The question is why. In any case, they're up to no good. I want you two to head for the Oblivia region, investigate their plans, and if necessary, stop them."

"Wait a minute!" cried a voice. Out came a chubby guy. "If you need an explanation of the Oblivia region, leave it up to me! I'm Murph, and I'm in charge of PR here at the Union!"

"Murph! I will take care of the explanation, thank you very much!"

"Please Professor Hastings! Don't take away any of my few remaining responsibilities!" Summer and I sweatdropped again. "...well then. Let me give you a brief explanation of the Oblivia region. In a sense, it's a place the rest of the world has forgotten about. It's a carefree and peaceful paradise!"

"You may be right that it is a peaceful paradise. That is, however, what these Pinchers may be after. The area is so peaceful that we only have one area Ranger stationed there."

Summer tilted her head and said, "Only one?"

"Yes."

"This is the Oblivia region's motto: "Oblivia, Islands of Ancient Ruins and Legends". Sounds like and adventure, doesn't it?" said Murph.

"Indeed. Recently, many archeology buffs have been visiting these islands. If I ever have the time, I would definitely like to visit, but...now listen you two, it may be peaceful, but don't let your guard down."

"Now is the second part of my explanation of the Oblivia region. There are nine parts in all, so make yourselves comfortable, okay?" Murph gave a wink. Summer and I looked at each other. What did he mean?

"That's enough! If you are that desperate for work, I'll think of something you to do! At any rate, this Mission is urgent."

"If you're going to give me a job, please give me something fun, okay?"

"That's something you'll have to look forward to. Our discussion has gone slightly off track, my young rangers. Depart immediately for the Oblivia region. Cooperate with Pokemon and foil the Pokemon Pinchers' plans. Defend nature and peace for everyone."

Me and Summer gave a curt nod and said, "Yes, sir!" and we did our Ranger pose. I did a flip and Summer did a turn. Man, it took me months to get mine right and she took a day. She just had to make it sooo simple, didn't she?

Summer turned to me and said, "So, we're off to the islands of Oblivia!"

Flashback Ends


I blinked my eyes open. My face was in the sand. I sat up and spit out some sand. "Gotta remember to never have sand for breakfast ever again." I looked around. Where was Summer? I looked down and she was still holding my hand. I pulled away, blushing in the progress. Summer woke up next.

She muttered, "Where are we?"

I shrugged. I tapped on my Styler. Voice Nav. began to speak. "Current location...X Coordinates 055665 Y Coordinates 355671. Seawater has penetrated the Styler's Voice Nav. curcuit. Current location...X Coordinate 05 bzzzzz...Y Coordinates 35 bzzzzz...Seawater zzz penetrated the Styler's bzzzzzz..." I tapped on it again. "This is Dolce Island in the Oblivia region...bzzzz...recovering Voice Nav. program. Recovering Voice Nav. program. Please verify that you own this Styler by entering your name." I looked at Summer, and she was having the same problems.

"...Ben. Ben Natsuya." I said slowly.

"Ben, correct? Your name has been verified. Recovery is almost complete. The Styler communication functions cannot be recovered. Communication with others is not possible. Current location...X Coordinates 055665 Y Coordinates 355671. You are currently on Dolce Island in the Oblivia region. According to the data about this area: Dolce Island is uninhabited. The nearest inhabited island is Renbow Island, north of Dolce Island, across a narrow strait." I looked at Summer. She was done listening to her Voice Nav. too.

I started heading towards the north part of the island and I motioned Summer to follow. She nodded and followed me. We walked around when we found a Pichu and an Eevee. The Pichu let out an electric charge, and the Eevee prepared to attack. I was quite surprised the Pichu didn't shock itself. I looked at Summer and said, "Your Styler working?" She nodded. "Good. You capture the Eevee, I'll capture the Pichu."

We both pointed our Stylers at the Pokemon and cried, "Capture on!" We captured the Pokemon with ease and said, "Capture complete."

The Pichu looked quite happy. Same with the Eevee. The Pichu grabbed its ukelele and sent out a few shocks to make some music for us.

"Aww! How cute!" cooed Summer.

"Yeah. I guess. I'll call you Ukelele Pichu!"

"Oh, Pichu, Eevee! You're okay!" cried someone. Out came an old man. The Pichu and Eevee ran up to him. "Hmm? Where are your other Pokemon friends?" Pichu and Eevee looked down. "Don't know, huh? Who were those folks who showed up on those UFO-lookin' things anyhow? I was far away and couldn't see very well...and oh! Who might you be?" he asked pointing at me and Summer.

"I'm Ben, and this is Summer!" I replied.

"Ah, very nice to meet you. Are you two a couple?"

I blushed and so did Summer. I waved my hands frantically and stuttered, "N-no, sir! W-we're just friends!"

"Alright than. Are you two Rangers?"

"Yes."

"Well, never seen you around! I'm Booker! A master shipbuilder from Renbow Island. Since this island doesn't have many places higher than this, I prepared ships for Pokemon who can't fly or swim when there's a tidal wave or something."

"I see." said Summer.

Pichu and Eevee ran up to us and gave a happy cheer. "Looks like Pichu and Eevee has taken a shine to you two! By the way, have you seen a UFO?"

Summer tilted her head and looked at me. "A UFO?"

"I think he means that thing we saw when we were flying."

"Ah. No, sir."

"Please call me Booker. Well, there's no place to camp, so would you like to come to Renbow Island with me?" Summer gave me an encouraging nod. I gave a nod as well. "Alright! Let's head to my boat! Pichu, Eevee! Tell your hiding friends that they can come out." the Pokemon gave a nod and ran off.

We started walking to Booker's boat when we suddenly found a log blocking our way. I went out and caught a Bulbasaur and told it to cut the log. Once it was finished, I thanked the Bulbasaur and it ran off. Once we got to the Pier, we saw no boat.

Booker started panicing and said, "My boat's gone?! Now how are we supposed to get to Renbow Island? Oh, I know! We can use the ship I've just start buildin'! It's still safer than other people's finished boats. So, no need for you to worry! But I need a favor. Can you push that into the ocean?"

Summer perked up and said, "I'll do it! Ben already did a Target Clear, so I'll do it this time!" and she ran off.

Booker lean in and whispered, "You sure you're not a couple?" I blushed and shook my head. He sighed and said, "That's a shame."

Summer came back quickly with an Ursaring and told it to push the ship into the ocean. It nodded and pushed the boat with ease.

"Thank you, Ursaring!" cried Summer before the Pokemon ran off.

Booker, Summer, and I headed towards the boat and Booker cried, "Now our long voyage shall begin!" Summer and I sweatdropped. "Ahahaha. I've always wanted to say that. It'll be over in a flash." Suddenly, Pichu and Eevee ran over and jumped into the boat. "Guess this means you couldn't find yer' friends and you want to find you're friends. Well, then, let's get going, shall we?" Summer and I hopped into the boat and we set sail. And our journey begins...
