Sorta Psychic

TMS: I'm back! I really have no excuse as to why it's taken so long for me to post chapter 3, so let's just start this thing.

Disclaimer: I don't own Pokémon in any way, shape or form. Pokémon belongs to Nintendo and Game Freak.


After returning Jinx to her pokéball Max and Keapora left route 202 and entered Jubilife city, Max was struck dumb by how big it is, the biggest city Max had ever seen was Violet city, but Jubilife dwarfed Max's hometown.

Keapora was even more shocked, He and Max hardly ever left Gateon port if his parents could help it, and Gateon was big enough for a port town, but in terms of buildings and residents it was smaller than even Violet city.

"Max, are you seeing what I'm seeing man?"

"I know, look at it all!"

Still in awe of the city, Max walked in front of the Pokémon center before he stopped.

"What am I doing? We don't need to heal Jinx, we didn't battle her."

"Well, winning all those battles made me hungry, plus we were going to heal her sleep condition."

"But it wasn't caused by a move, she just randomly fell asleep."

"More like you bored her to sleep."

"I bored her to sleep!? It's because of you that we got distracted!"

"Well you returned me and obviously without me around you were so dull she nodded off!"

"One: I returned you because you were flirting with that starly, and two: What, do you think that the air around you is energized by your mere presence or something stupid like that?"

"Hey, can you move away from the door?"

Max and Keapora turned away from their argument and saw a kid Max's age holding a pokéball in his hand.

"Uhh… sure go on in!"

The kid shot Max a weird look and entered the center.

"Hey Max, how about that snack now?"

"*sigh* … Sure why not?"


Jinx's P.O.V

"Jinx use Thunder!"

I launched the attack; dropping a massive lightning bolt from above and scoring a critical hit on the enemy pokémon, but as the smoke cleared I saw that my opponent was still standing… err, floating there.

"Oh oui! Mismagius, use balle ombre!"

Not sure exactly what she just said but the mismagius was charging a shadow ball, my leg is still hurting so I don't think I can dodge, I hear Max yelling for me to attack. Using a charge beam I poured everything I had into it, sending the attack straight through the shadow ball and finishing off that pesky mismagius.

"Yeah! Jinx you did it!"

"Très bien! You have beaten mon gym! Ton Luxio is very strong!"

Suddenly the crowds of people in the audience were cheering for me!

"Jinx! Jinx! Jinx!"

End P.O.V

"Jinx! Jinx! Jinx wake up!"

Max was poking and petting Jinx trying to wake her up.

"Max, that's not gonna wake her up. Let me try something."

Keapora hopped off of Max's shoulder and glanced over Jinx; he then stuck his beak in her ear and yelled.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP!"

Jinx jumped three feet in the air and landed on Keapora.

"Ow! Get off me!"

"Sorrysorrysorry! I don't know what happened."

Jinx got off of the Keapora and he fluttered back onto Max's shoulder.

"Well you fell asleep, we went into the city, and then came back out here. We still need to see what you can do."

"Ohmygosh! I'm sorry I was just so excited for training and I was running and jumping around and I didn't sleep last night because I was really excited because I had this feeling I was going to get caught soon and I was right but I still stayed up all night but it's just-"

"Jinx! Calm down, breathe! It's okay, your all rested now right?"

"Ummmm… Yes!"

"Good, now you and Keapora are going to fight in a mock battle. How's that sound?"

"Awesome! But, um, I've never been in a battle before…"

"That's alright, we'll start simple, just use moves when I tell you. Got that?"

"I can totally do that!"

"Great, Keapora, you go easy on her alright!"

"Ugh, fine."

Keapora vs Jinx 1v1

Keapora flew at Jinx with a wing attack.

"Jinx dodge it!"

Jinx rolled to the side and Keapora's wing missed her.

"Use charge beam!"

Jinx started charging energy, Keapora turned around and used steel wing. Jinx fired her charge beam, Keapora spun around to dodge but the beam hit his right wing, he kept flying at Jinx.

"Dodge it!"

Jinx braced herself, ready to jump away. Keapora flew at high speeds towards Jinx, his wing shiny with steel, closer… closer… closer…

He plowed right into the ground in front of Jinx.

Keapora vs Jinx 1v1 Jinx wins!

Jinx gently prodded Keapora with her paw, his body crackled with electricity and he didn't move.

"Keapora! Are you okay?" Max ran up to check on his friend.

"He's paralyzed, do you have any cheri berries?"

"No, but I've got something just as good."

Max pulled out a yellow bottle and sprayed Keapora with whatever was inside it. The sparks on his body disappeared and Keapora stood up.

"Ugh, Nice shot Jinx, I can't remember the last time I got hit."

Max took out his PDA/pokédex and checked Keapora's HP; it was down to one point.

"Keapora, your health is really low, hold still a sec."

Max sprayed Keapora's wing with a potion, then they started up again.

"Well Jinx, we know that you have good aim, so maybe later Keapora can practice his dodging."

"Very funny Max." snapped the bird pokémon

Keapora flew at Jinx with another steel wing attack, like last time Jinx spread out her legs preparing to jump and dodge. Right before Keapora hit her she jumped into the air; Keapora flew by her and started to turn around. Jinx braced herself and when Keapora came close, she rolled aside so Keapora missed her with his steel wing.

"Good one, a few more than we'll switch."

"Wait you were serious about that!? What's wrong with my dodging!?"

While he was yelling at Max, Keapora flew right into Jinx, the two rolling around on the ground. Max ran up to see if they were alright.

"Hey are you two all right?"

Jinx hopped of off Keapora and shook her head.

"A little dizzy, but I'm fine."

Keapora just moaned.

"Hey Jinx, grab an oran berry out of my bag, the pocket's already open."

"Okay!" Jinx skipped off to get the berry (A.N: Actually, can quadrupeds skip?)

"Hey Kep, bet you never thought you'd ever have a female on top of you twice in one day."

"Ugh, you suck, you know that?"

"Anyway, we were going to work on your dodging but I guess we need to teach you to pay attention during battle."

"Lay off man, you distracted me!"

"Max! I got it!" Jinx nudged the berry to Max's feet.

"Thank you."

"Glad to help!"

After eating the berry Keapora felt better, they continued dodge training, with Keapora flying close to the ground and Jinx jumping up to try and touch him, this also helped Jinx with her jumping. Keapora was getting touched more than he would have liked.

"Tag!' Jinx yelled for the 5th time.

"Dang it! Not again!" yelled Keapora.

Jinx paused and looked down.

"I'm sorry Kep." She said.

"It's Keapora, and sorry for what?"

"I'm making you mad…"

"*sigh* It's not you, I'm mad at myself because I thought I was better at dodging."

"Okay, I think we've done enough for now, let's head back into jubilife, we should look around the city."

"Yeah! Let's go!" yelled Jinx.


DS: Well that took forever!

TMS: I know, but I'm done procrastinating, I've already got some stuff done in advance so I'll be able to update this, and post other stuff more frequently.

DS: Well that's good… But you do know that no one reads this, all your followers are on your Skylanders fic.

TMS: Yeah, but I'm still blocked on that one, anyway I'll hopefully be back with chapter four soon!
