Mt. Silver. The biggest mountain in the Johto Region. Just another obstacle for Ivory and her Pokemon. She made her way through Mt. Silver, ready to find even more Pokemon the farther up she got. The more she traveled, the colder it became.

This is an ice Pokemon paradise! She thought, shivering at the harsh chill. She ran into many varieties of Pokemon: Ursaring, Misdreavus, Sneasle, Onix and even Larvitar. She paid most of them no mind, catching only the ones that she was interested in. Any others were used to train her Pokemon. It may sound cruel, but it was actually far from it.

She finally reached the peak of Mt. Silver, shivering as she looked around. She stepped forward a bit and stopped when she saw a figure. It was a boy, about thirteen, wearing a red vest and hat with blue jeans. She stepped towards him and gently touched his shoulder. He turned and stared at her with gentle red eyes. She blushed and took a step back.

"You…You're the legendary trainer Red, aren't you?" She asked gently. He said nothing, only proceeded to pull a pokeball from a clip on his belt. She moved back and pulled out her own pokeball, ready for the challenge he was starting. He tossed the ball out and a Pikachu appeared. She smirked and sent out her Donphan.

"Pika!!"

"Don!!"

"Donphan, use Magnitude!!" Ivory ordered. Donphan trumpeted with his trunk and the ground shook violently. The Pikachu fell harshly to the ground, fainting. Red returned his Pokemon and tossed out Snorlax. She returned her Donphan and pulled out a new pokeball.

"Go, Riolu!!" She summoned. The small blue Pokemon burst forth and got into the fighter's stance. Red pointed forward without saying a word and Snorlax prepared to use Body Slam. Ivory scowled, "Dodge it! Use Hi Jump Kick!" She ordered. Riolu moved out of the way and jumped into the air, spinning and kicking the Snorlax right in the face. It stumbled back and fell, fainting. Red returned his Pokemon and summoned Charizard. She returned Riolu and tossed out Politoed.

"Rawr!!"

"Poli~!"

Red signaled and Charizard used Wing Attack, which barely did anything to the frog-like Pokemon.

"Use Surf, Politoed!"

"Poli~~!" Politoed clapped and some of the snow melted and rose, crashing down on the dragon of a pokemon. It tumbled and fainted, forcing Red to call him back. She returned Politoed and grinned. Red sent out Venusaur and she smirked, sending out her shiny Glaceon.

"SAUR!!!"

"Glay~!"

"Glaceon, use Avalanche!"

"Glay~!!" The Glaceon swayed its head and giant amounts of snow fell onto the Venusaur, causing it to faint. Red returned him and she returned her Glaceon. He sent out Blastoise and she sent out Bellossom.

"Blas!"

"Bell~!" The Blastoise readied its canons and shot out a Hydro Pump, knocking Bellossom back. She recovered quickly and danced, "Bell~!"

"Bellossom, use Grass Knot!"

"Bell!!" She danced around and the grass popped out from under the snow, tying around the Blastoise and squeezing it. Red returned it when it fainted, Ivory returning her Bellossom. Red sent out his last pokemon, Lapras. She smiled and summoned Armaldo. Red signaled and Lapras used Ice Beam. Armaldo shook off the ice and stomped his foot.

"Armaldo! Use Rock Blast!" Ivory ordered. Armaldo scooped up pieces of rock with his tail and threw them at Lapras over and over until it fainted. Red returned it and Ivory cheered, jumping and hugging her Armaldo.

"Good job, buddy!" She praised. Armaldo's tail thumped as he grinned. Red walked passed them, exiting to heal his pokemon. She frowned and returned her pokemon, following him.

"Hey! You did pretty good!" She told him. He stayed silent, continuing on his way. She frowned and looked ahead before glancing at him again.

"Why are you up there anyway?" She asked.

"Training…" He muttered. She frowned, "In the cold?"

"Intense conditions makes the training better…" He stated, keeping his gaze forward. She jumped in front of him, making him stop, "At the cost of your Pokemon's heath!?" She gasped. He tilted his hat down, "What's that suppose to mean?"

"Don't give me that! Any respectable trainer knows that Grass types don't do well with snow or ice!" She scolded. He didn't look at her, staying silent.

"Venusaur can handle the snow…He has before…"

"Then he would've survived Glaceon's attack!" She growled. He moved around her, "Don't tell me how to raise my pokemon." He said coldly. She scowled and followed him anyway, needing to heal her tired pokemon.

Once their pokemon were healed, Red ventured back to the top of Mt. Silver.

"Where are you going!?" Ivory hissed. He kept walking, "Back to the summit…"

"Why the hell are you going there!?"

"To train, obviously…" He stated bluntly. She growled, "Stop putting your pokemon through such torture!!" She yelled. He stopped and turned to her, his red eyes blazing with anger.

"Stop telling me how to raise my pokemon…a little girl like you doesn't have a clue on how to raise pokemon properly…"

"You smart-ass piece of crap!! If you were raising them properly, I wouldn't have mopped the floor with them!" She snapped. He turned away from her and continued on his way, "Next time we meet, it'll be my pokemon mopping the floor with yours…" He stated and disappeared into Mt. Silver. Ivory growled and stomped her foot.

"Boys are so dumb…!" She huffed and left Mt. Silver.
