Okay, this is going to be my new story, you must love it, and you must embrace it... okay, not really, but I now have a semi-dreary school story, two complete school stories, a semi- happy school story... so I thought why not have a story that actually reminds me of the show... so with out further to do, my first... umm... traveling story. Yea, NEwayz, let's get with it.
It was a typical day for our normal trio and their pokemon. Brock was cooking, as Ash was sitting over the pot waiting for the food to finish cooking, and Dawn was in her tent brushing her now unruly hair thanks to Pacharisu. " Ugh, Pacharisu, this is impossible! " Dawn shrieked as she attempted to pull the brush through her hair, which just made it a little more unruly. " Alright Piplup, come on out and use bubble beam." Dawn said as she tossed the red and white pokeball into the air. She came out of her tent twenty minutes later... nothing had really changed. " Okay, I'm taking a walk." Dawn said smiling at her two friends.
" You want some company?" Ash asked as he stood from his seat. Dawn shook her head. " Okay then, you be careful." Ash and Both said simultaneously.
" No need to worry. " Dawn said smiling as she ran off, with Ambipom close behind. Dawn finally slowed down as she neared the lake. " Okay, Ambipom. Our contest is coming up very soon and we have to get ready." She said sighing as she fell on the grass near the bank. Ambipom just nodded in agreement and sat down beside her. Ambipom and Dawn sat there talking for quite a while and after half an hour later they decided to head back. " Ambipom? What's wrong?" Dawn asked as Ambipom stopped and began to stare off into the distance. "Ambip--" She started but then stopped as she heard it, a small crying voice. Dawn and Ambipom began to run to the crying that they heard. Soon the reached a clearing and in the ditance lay a small Smeargle being attacked a Tauros. Ambipom sprang into action using double team, which slowed Tauros down pretty quickly to a complete stop, as he was surrounded by all the copies of Dawn's pokemon. " Alright, now Ambipom use swift." Dawn said as her pokemon did the most beautiful and most powerful swift yet, sending Tauros running. " Great job, Ambipom." Dawn said smiling and patting her pokemon on the head. She then turned to the Smeargle that was now siiting upright staring at her. Ambipom began to approch it, but it then unleashed a very powerful swift attack towards the two. " Funny." Dawn said to herself as she pulled out her pokedex. " That doesn't look like a pokemon I have ever seen before."
" Smeargle, the paintbrush pokemon. The tend to have a very trusting temperment, and the only move they know is sketch." Humm... Dawn thought to herself as she scrolled down and clicked on the move. " Sketch, is a pokemon move that gives the pokemon the ability to copy and memorize other pokemon's moves."
" Wow!" Dawn cooed. " And you are so cute, you should come with us." Dawn squealed. " Oh come on, I won't hurt you. At least let me take you back to camp so I can make you feel better," She said as she eyed the scratches on Smeargle's body. Smeargle finally consented and Smeargle rode in Dawn's arm's as she ran all the way back to camp.
" Torterra, use hyperbeam." Paul grunted as his pokemon immediately obeyed, sending Ash's knocked out Buizel to the ground. " Hum... pathetic." Paul grunted again as he recalled his Torterra.
" Great battle, Paul." Ash said as he picked up his pokemon off the ground, making sure it was okay before returning it. " But you know next time we face each other I will win, I promise."
" Hum... empty promises." Paul said causing Ash to glare at him. Paul began to turn and leave, until he saw Dawn and Ambipom running back to camp.
" Brock, I need your help." Dawn panted out as she came to a stop right in front of the tall Brunette figure.
" What have you got there?" Brock asked as he got out his first aid kit. Dawn proceeded to tell the story as Brock treated Smeargle. " Well, that's very lucky for you isn't it?" Brock asked as he sat the Smeargle down on the ground. " There all done. Hey, and look, it is a different color too." He added as he began to put the first aid stuff back into his bag.
" Man you're lucky." Ash said smiling at Dawn. " Most Smeargle have green tails he said looking the small dog like creature over, this one has a red tail."
" Duh." Paul said as he took out his pokedex and scanned Smeargle's almost non- exsistant move set.
" Why do you care so much anyway?" Dawn asked as she watched Paul eye the pokemon.
" Because, I am going to catch it." He said as he proceeded to pull a pokeball from his belt.
" No way, it's mine." Dawn said moving in front of Smeargle.
" Whatever." Paul said as he threw the pokeball at the intended target. It began to shake back and forth, and just when it looked hopeless for Dawn,. Smeargle popped back out of the ball, and attacked Paul with his recently learned swift attack. Everyone began to laugh as the move faded and Paul stood there glaring at the Smeargle. " Hum..." Paul grunted once more.
" Dawn, he must have learned that move from your Ambipom." Ash said as he watched Smeargle run and hid behind Dawn.
" See, I told you, " Dawn said now smiling with a lot of confidence. " Smeargle is my pokemon, and I am going to name him... Vincent" She said smiling, receiving nothing but glares from Paul.
" Whatever." Paul said coldly.
" What do you mean " whatever" I like it." Dawn said defensively.
" You would," Paul said still glaring at the two.
" Oh, I get it, you mean Vincent...as in Van Gogh... the famous musician." Ash said smiling. Everyone sweat dropped
" He was a painter you idiot." Paul said as he shook his head. " Hey I'm outta here." He said as he shoved his hand deep inside of his jacket pocket and began to walk away."
