Sorry about the sudden change but I'll turn this to a normal POV. So very sorry…
DISCLAMER: I DON'T OWN POKEMON ADVENTURES
CHAPTER 3: A Breeder's Love and Care
"The beach? The beach is more important than my sister going with Silver alone?" Gold yelled as he took Crystal's shoulder and looked her straight in her light blue eyes full of frustration. Their faces were just a few inches away. Crystal was beet red and heart pounding loud. She wants to smack Gold in the face but her body can't move and awkward silence entered between them.
"You're starting to be overprotective" Crystal said still held by Gold and he slowly let go after a 2 minutes staring contest. He then snickered then breathed heavily to calm down for a few minutes.
"Uhh..Gold?" Crystal began.
"Tell me what happen to the beach that day and make it about Lyra, don't tell girls in bikinis." Gold favored. Crystal was surprised by the sudden favor. The Gold right now wants hey to tell him something that's not about beach girls in bikinis or anything perverted.
"Well I'm not sure about everything about her since I'm swimming with Emerald and Sapphire but I think Lyra's just building sand castles and talking to Silver about that show. They're really can relate to that. What more if Dia and Platina was there." Crystal wondered aloud and Gold started to get more frustrated because he just yelled like he's in pain.
"Gold, what's wrong?" Crystal asked.
Crystal told Gold to breathe slowly to calm down and started to pat his back. "I don't know! Something's bothering me for the past few days. It's like I'm frustrated when it comes to Lyra talking to Silver by chance." Crystal widened her eyes at what Gold said and Crystal knew his problem immediately. He became overprotective, an overprotective brother to his little sister.
"Gold...listen to me," Crystal began and they both look at each other. "You're worried about Lyra being with someone alone except you or a girl companion."
"Me? Overprotective towards—Crys.. I'm a carefree guy. I'm not that serious like you." Gold said, ruffling Crystal's hair. "If I'm overprotective then I have to stop it right?" he then said with a smile.
"What?" Crystal said confused.
"I mean, Lyra's going to study Pokemon a lot and about those contests. I mean, I can't let her delay her dream to become a coordinator right?" Gold reasoned. "Hey, if you're thinking I'm not in my old self and the words I said are completely opposite to what my actions were. I'm not joking and don't worry because I'm still me okay?"
Crystal nodded. "So he turned matured in somepoint, that's good but I have to keep a bettle eye on him." She thought.
"Wait, is it okay with you if Ruby will teach Lyra contests I mean he's a guy and -" she said but Gold interrupted her.
"Prissy boy already has Wild gal so I don't worry much about him talking to Lyra and besides he might act girly." Gold said and another silence entered for a few minutes.
"Hey, Serious gal," Gold began looking at his pokeNav. "Hate to leave you but I need to go to the day care and so you should really be going to work."
"Right," Crystal said and stood up and ready to go but Gold caught her hand gave Crystal a peck on the cheek. Crystal's face was burning red and Gold was grinning. He walked out, took Togetaro out and rode him.
"See ya later Crys!" Gold said and took off leaving the flustered Crystal.
Gold looked at the sky while going to Goldenrod, remembering the surprised look on Crystal's face when he kissed her made his face go red as well but he laughed it off. He finally arrived to the small building at the south of the big city of Johto. He opened the door and baby pokemons came to him and greeted him. Ataro quickly placed himself at Gold's shoulder and snuggled Gold's cheek with his nose. Ataro was assigned by Gold to take care of the day-care while he's out and if there's no emergency or important missions going.
"How's the pokemon eggs doing?" Gold asked Ataro as he touched the soon-to-be happiny and munchlax eggs. "They're about to hatch soon buddy so let's get the camera ready."
"Gold-senpai!" A loud voice was heard and at the same time the door came banging and baby pokemons quickly hide under the table, shelves and other hideable areas. Some pokemons came holding Gold's legs making him walk like a little Piplup going to the door.
"Yeah, yeah" Gold muttered, swinging the door and saw Ruby and Sapphire. Gold gave them a mean look causing his juniors to flinched. "What's up that you start banging my door?"
"Sorry senpai, I told Sapphire to knock not bang." Ruby apologized bowing his head.
"It's just I got this egg from an old lady in Lavaridge and I was wondering if it's a marill or something? That's all." Sapphire said, half-arguing with Ruby and she showed a light blue egg with a black quadrilateral at the bottom.
"Well, I'm sure it's not a marill…" Gold examined the egg but he was distracted by his junior's curious eyes looking at the pokemons below him. Ruby and Sapphire was told to come in and Gold started his Piplup walk.
"I'm not that expert in Hoenn's breeding but did you talk about the day-care man in your region?" Gold asked after he finished drawing the appearance of the egg. Collecting this kind of info is a hobby and collection of his and at the same time, the baby pokemons holding him begins to let go one by one but unfortunately his legs turned numb. The two shook their heads and Gold almost fell in his chair because he can't believe what he got as an answer. "Why didn't you ask him?" he asked in a rough voice.
Ruby shrugged and pointed at Sapphire blaming her. "Umm I didn't think of it, once I got the egg, we took off and go to ya." She said.
"Well, thanks for thinking me as the greatest breeder in whole world Wild gal." Gold said, enjoying the praise he just recieved. "So, want me to take care of the egg for you?"
"Actually, I wanted ya to teach me how to take care of the egg, I want to take care of myself like I took care of Toro and the others." Sapphire said and Gold nodded. Ruby, on the other hand was shocked and laughed making the two look at him with curiousity. "What's wrong with ya?"
"Nothing, I just can't help the fact that a clumsy person like you is gonna take care of a pokemon egg." Ruby said still laughing and Gold started smirking after hearing what Ruby said.
The two ended up arguing with Sapphire banging the table having the egg fall but luckily Ataro catches it and gave it to his partner, Luckily it didn't break. The two was still arguing and Gold started to get annoyed.
"SHUT UP!" Gold yelled and they stopped, bowing their heads in great guilt. "If Prissy boy here worries the egg will crack because of Wild gal's clumsiness then both of you will take care of this egg until it grows into its final evolution." They exchanged looks and got surprised at the decision Gold gave.
"No way, I'll take care of the egg with him/her?!" both of them yelled in unison.
"Why?" Gold asked not impressed. "Don't you shout, the baby pokemons are startled because of ya!" Baby pokemons continue to hide scared in both their eyes, some just went outside at their playground.
"He might turn into a contest pokemon." Sapphire said. "What if this pokemon grows to like contest than gym battles?"
"What's wrong with contest?" Ruby reacted. "It's not bad to express a pokemon's inner beauty?" and they continue to argue yet again but not in yelling voice this time.
"Anyway, why not?" Gold began making them stop and listen.
"Gold-senpai, are you saying, you prefer contest s than battles? Ruby has an effect on you." Sapphire said to Gold and he almost chocked at what Sapphire said.
"Who says that I like that?" Gold asked glaring at her. "What I meant is, look at Platina…she decided to challenge both gyms and contests using the same pokemons for both areas. I suppose Ruby had pokemon battles before?"
Ruby just nodded and Sapphire opened her mouth to talk back. "Well that's final, go and take care of that pokemon until it grows. If you like, just switch turns on who gets to take care and keeps an eye after it hatches but for now, take care of it together, have the egg be with happy, healthy and energetic pokemon to hatch." Gold told them and Sapphire just pouted.
"But senpai, I can take care of the pokemon myself I'm not that clumsy." She said.
"Remember, your door banging and table banging? Baby pokemon flinched and got scared and the egg almost fell with you table banging so let prissy boy help you and everything will work out fine." Gold reasoned and she just turned all silent and guilty and agreed to let Ruby take care of it with her.
"And be sure to tell me how it's doing." Gold favored and they just nodded.
"Say, Gold-senpai, out of curiousity how did you take care of the pokemon eggs so great even if you're so reckless?" Ruby asked and Gold felt rather insulted when he heard the word 'reckless'.
"Well… I-" but a crack was heard and we saw a new-born munchlax is trying to take off the shell as it can. "See fo yourself then." Gold snickered.
Ataro quickly got a camera and started to take random shots of the munchlax. A caterpie came and snuggle Gold's leg which he picked it up and starting petting its head, the caterpie's making a satisfying sound. The munchlax has finished removing the egg shell and saw the happiny egg and start hugging it and it even tries eating it. Ruby quickly took the Munchlax and started to pet him.
"Ouch!" Ruby exclaimed as the Munchlax bites his hand. "Is this Red-senpai's and Rald's snorelaxes' eggs?" Gold nodded checking the pictures Ataro took and thank goodness most of them are great shots.
"Look! The other egg is hatching too!" Sapphire shouted and Gold suddenly readied the camera and took shots.
"WELCOME TO THE WORLD MUNCHLAX, HAPINNY!" Sapphire greeted. "That reminds me, Did you also do these kind of stuff Ruby if your pokemons evolve?"
"Yeah, but now, mostly everyone has evolved —well except Ruru, who's gonna be Gardevoir real soon." Ruby replied. "Say, are we gonna return munchlax to Rald or Red-senpai, Gold-senpai?"
"Nah but call them and tell Muchlax had hatched, I need to train all newly-hatched pokemons until they are used to battles and know their attacks. If not, they 'll do something funny that will put them in danger."Gold said checking the shots of Happiny.
"Ruby, when this hatches, I'll be the one who'll train 'im." Sapphire decided. Gold took Munchlax and Hapinny outside and let them mingle with the other baby pokemons which turns out they're just tackling and some of them touching and petting each other's faces.
"Where's the battle?" she asked in a sad tone which made me and prissy boy look at her with confused looks.
"Little ones should let themselves play. That's what I believed." Gold exclaimed.
"Alright, hey Ruby, let's stay here and learn how to take care pokemon eggs a lot more clear." Sapphire invited clutching the egg. Ruby agreed and reads a book of breeding pokemons written by the old couple.
"You know, if you like to know how to breed pokemons, just make them stronger," Gold began going to the day care's training room.
"Stronger?" Sapphire repeated, excitement in her voice. "Let's train instead! C'mon Ruby!" she started dragging Ruby.
"Wait a minute…" Ruby said who is focused reading the book but then followed.
They are now at the training room. Sapphire all fired up and Ruby who's just on normal state. "So who's the strongest pokemon in the day care?" Sapphire asked fist bumping the air as she took her Toro.
"Well there's Jasmine's Amphros and Whitney's Miltank." Gold replied.
"Why are the gym leader's pokemon here?" Ruby asked taking Nana out.
"Well, Ampharos is here to visit her daycare friends and Whitney lets me get this miltank to grow strong to produce a big amount milk since its producing low." Gold said.
The training had now began with Miltank's Zenn Headbutt towards Nana and Ampharos's Dragon Pulse towards Toro.
"Sapphire, you battled Ampharos and mine's Miltank." Ruby stated. "Nana, use Shadow ball!"
Sapphire nodded. "Toro! Blaze kick!"
Gold on the other hand is taking the time to relax and idle outside keeping an eye of the baby pokemons playing and other grown pokemons mingling their peers. Baby pokemons having their mini races, Pokemon couples started snuggling at their sleep and some are chatting with different species.
"Gold!" Red called with Pika at his shoulder and Emerald at his tail.
"Yo!" Gold greeted and Pichu went towards Pika and started to play with his dad. The newly-hatched Munchlax followed Pichu and got interested at Emerald and Red that he stared at the two trainers.
"Is this the munchlax?" Emerald asked and started hugging the pokemon with delight.
"Yup! He eats everything he sees at sight." Gold said standing up and took the two inside and offer them tea and cookies. "Here goes a little snack for you as well." He said to the munchlax to prevent eating the first bowl intended for Red and Emerald.
"Red-senpai let me take care of Munn-chi!" Emerald said, stuffing the cookies with his mouth.
"Munn-chi?" Gold repeated, a disgusted look at his face as he heard the nickname.
"Alright, but let Lax see his child first." Red said calmly drinking his tea.
"By the way senpai," Gold began with his childish grin. "You're not with straw hat gal and Pika's not with Chuchu why's that?"
"Well, she's sleeping at the house and I don't want to wake her up." Red replied. Yellow had moved in with Red by force from Pika and Chuchu due to reason they don't want to separate ever again except for special occasions.
"Aww too bad, but that's good to know." Gold laughed. "I thought you two break up or something that I have to assign a party for you to feel better and I'll go broke." Gold is the clown of the Dex holder whenever one feels stressed, he will automatically make a gag that everyone will enjoy in some way.
Sapphire came charging in, having the unknown egg fall and Gold have to catch it dramatically. "Both of you finally arrived!" Sapphire cheered having herself a blast and starts eating the cookies faster than the little munchlax. Ruby followed her, still reading the book about breeding and sat down next to Sapphire not even noticing the two who just arrived.
"So Ruby, what interesting activity you've done with Sapphire?" Red asked giving emphasis to every word like talking to an imaginative child.
Ruby noticed Red and Emerald and almost fell at his seat. "Good! We just battled Jasmine's Ampharos and Whitney's Miltank."
"Was it a good fight?" Gold asked putting the egg at Ruby's hands. Ruby nodded in respond.
"Chu, chu Pichu!" Pichu yelled, making the trainers looked at the sudden noise. All the pokemons that fits the house began to swarm to Gold and forces him to go outside "Hey, what's going on?" Gold asked in surprised as he was being dragged with cheering and happy pokemons. The remaining trainers just followed him and to their surprise, they saw Gold giving attention to all the pokemons to play and talk. Even Gold's teammates join the fun, Explotaro rested at his lap, Ataro and Sunflora both at his shoulders tried to stop Hapinny and Pichu to climb Gold's shoulders, Sudotaro and Togetaro watches the pokemons and their partner mingle as they smiled before them. The baby pokemons starts biting Gold's hair happily, enjoying the play time they had with the breeder.
Pika went back to Red after he plays with Pichu. "So had fun playing with Pichu?" Red asked. Pika just let go of a sigh and shook his head showing Red that he got beaten by Gold.
"Gold-senpai really shows his love for pokemons like that even if it's not his," Ruby commented. "Even if he's very rude and rowdy."
"Yeah, I'm not surprised," Red said smiling. "That's his gift plus his house is known as the pokemon mansion of Johto. Even if he's stubborn and annoying, he never put people and pokemons in deep embarrassment."
"I'm always curious about something," Emerald began. "I was wondering what will he look like if he's serious and acts more mature than everyone, you know very strict at something?"
"Why d'ya think that?" Sapphire asked.
"Gold? Strict?" Red repeated, imagining it but he just laughed. "That's impossible, We know he sometimes act mature but as strict as Crys? that's just impossible."
"Yeah, silly me! He'll never be as strict as Crystal." Emerald grinned and they all laughed
chapter 3 is out and sorry if we didn't witness a full battle but I'll make sure I'll add some in the future chapters. I don't know the real design of a wynaut egg so I just made something that's very close to it. Tell me if there is a reference to it. Thanks for reading~
