CHAPTER 3
ENTER THE EGG GYM
"good morning trainers, we have arrived at Dallas and the site of the first pokemerica gyms." max called over the loudspeaker as he pulled the bus into a trainer center. "Just for your info the egg gym is here, the leader uses all baby pokemon. But don't get over confident just because their not evolved, they can still be very tough. There is also a park in town for those of you who would like to get some extra training in. Feel free to take you time we wont be leaving until noon tomorrow, good luck everyone."James made his way to the front of the bus and found Daniel waiting for him.
"Hey, you gonna hit the gym first." Daniel asked.
"No, I want to get a little more training in first so im gonna head to the park."zeek floated up beside him now sporting a bandana of his own.
"Do you really think were so weak we cant drop a few baby pokemon." zeek asked.
"No I believe all 3 of you are ready but I think a little warmup would be a good idea." James replied
"I agree, I think ill head the same way." Daniel said "blitz and blaze could use a warm up too"
"Who's blitz?" James asked.
"That's my scyther, you didn't get a chance to see him after the fight with ben." Daniel replied as they hopped on a bus headed for the park, when they arrived there was a large field and a area if pipes and other steel scrap.
"Well this looks like a good place to snag a steel type." James said surveying the area. around one of the pipes there came a clanging sound and a small metallic looking pokemon appeared.
"Speak of the devil.. An aron, lets get him ifreet." James said calling ifreet out. "Quick use ember." ifreet fired off the small fireballs at the aron however aron dug under ground to avoid the attack.
"What.. I didn't know they could dig...fine wait for him to surface then hit him with dragon rage." ifreet began looking for the aron waiting for his chance to strike however it came out of the ground hitting ifreet hard and knocking him into the air as ifreet started to come down aron charged at full speed and hit him again with a powerful takedown attack sending ifreet into a nearby tree.
"Crap ifreet are you ok." James asked him as ifreet pulled himself out of the splintered remains of the tree.
"Char...charmander." ifreet replied
"Im gonna feel that in the morning." zeek translated.
"Ok lets get this guy, hit him with mean look then follow with ember."James said, ifreet glared at aron causing it to slow down out of fear, then ifreet fired off the ember attack hitting aron hard.
Aron growled at ifreet and charged in hitting him with another takedown, this time however ifreet was back on his feet in moments and flames started to glow from around his lips before a he sent a large stream of fire at aron causing it to turn black and wobble weakly.
"Nice flamethrower ifreet, go pokeball." James said throwing a pokeball at the aron catching it easily.
"Nice capture James what are you gonna call him." Daniel asked
"Not sure yet, maybe crusher or something like that. Good job ifreet you can take a rest now." James replied calling ifreet back.
"Hey you over there did yall see an aron come running past here." a kid said running over a nearby hill towards the trainers a little out of breath.
"Yea I just caught an aron a second ago." James replied holding the pokeball with aron in it.
"Aw I was chasing that one... would you be willing to trade it for my riolu." the kid asked
"Hmm that sounds like a fair trade. Im gonna head over to the trainer center, you gonna do some training Daniel." James said.
"Yea, cant let you get to far ahead of me. Catch you at the gym later." Daniel replied as James and the kid hopped onto a nearby bus.
"By the way my names Eric." the kid said as the bus was leaving the park.
"Nice to meet you im James." at the sound of his name Eric started to look around nervously.
"Um what are you looking for Eric?" James asked him.
"Oh um, I was worried Jessie and meowth were gonna pop up and take my pokemon." Eric said.
"Im not that James." James replied threw clenched teeth.
"Hehehe oh... guess you get that allot judging by your reaction."
"Yea, by the way how did you get a riolu." James asked.
"I hatched him from an egg awhile back. Eric replied as the buss came up to the center. James and Eric went inside and immediately headed for the trade machines. After the trade was completed James ask.
"Oh I forgot does he have a nick name."
"No I never gave him one."
"Oh good then I think ill call him guts. Thanks for the trade Eric."() James said as he headed for the training room.
"Ok guts might as well get acquainted with each other come on out." James said calling guts out of his ball.
"Here guts I think everyone on my team is gonna get a bandana." James said tying the bandana to guts's head
"Ok lets see what you can do" they went over to a training ring where a large man was waiting for an opponent.
"You up for a battle kid. I don't think you can take my scizor." the trainer said
"Guts this looks like it may be a basic warm up so take it slow till we can get a rhythm going."
"What was that kid you're no match for larz mcbregug."
"Guts get in there and show mr. Large mc big huge a lesson." the judge capsule rose up out of the ground beside the ring.
Battle situation James guts vs larz scizor.

"Scizor use false swipe." larz said
"Guts dodge and use force palm" scizor charged at guts with its claw glowing, guts ducked the attack and slammed scizor hard in the chest sending it flying back across the arena.
"Oh yea, scizor quick attack." scizor charged forward again hitting guts doing a little damage.
"Riolu lu rio." riolu said to James
"Can I try a tactic." zeek translated.
"Go for it dude." James said to him. Guts stopped where he was and started to slowly stamp his right foot, after the fifth time his foot was surrounded by fire guts rushed forward and kicked scizor right in the chin causing it to faint.
"Scizor is unable to battle the winner is James." the judge said before returning to the pod.
"What was that, a blaze kick sweet chin music? Whatever it was good job. I think were ready for the gym." James said as he called guts back and headed for the pokecenter machine. On his way out the door he ran into Daniel who was just getting off the bus.
"Perfect timing I was on my way to the gym" Daniel said
"Good we can take it together, you get anything new?" James said.
"Yea ill introduce you to fang after we beat the gym leader." after a few minuets they arrived at a large arena that had multi colored eggs painted all over it.
"If this isn't the place my names duo maxwell." James said, before they went in they noticed ben coming out of the arena.
"Hey ben how did you do." Daniel asked him
"Must you ask this gym is a joke hydro took out her togepi easily." he replied without stopping.
"Ok lets to this thing." James said. He and Daniel walked into the arena. Inside there was a large battle field surrounded by multi colored blocks, the entire gym was painted in soft pastel colors.
"Wow... I think im gonna be sick" zeek said landing on James's shoulder and wrapping his tail around his neck for balance.
"Aww what's wrong a cuty like you should be right at home im my cute little gym." said a female voice from the other side of the arena.
"Lady if my head wasn't spinning from all these stupid colors id blast you." zeek replied before finally retreating into his pokeball.
"Ok guess I cant use zeek." James said "Daniel you want to go first while I rethink my strategy."
"Sure."Daniel replied he walked over to the challenger platform while James headed for the stands. Standing on the leader stand was a young girl wearing a nurse joy style outfit.
"Welcome to the egg gym, my name is Amy Carrington. In this will be a one on one battle so I hope your ready. We've already defended the badge from the last trainer in here."Amy said
"Haha. Ben got whipped by baby pokemon." James said laughing from the stands
"Don't under estimate us. Go happiny."Amy said releasing a happiny onto the field.
"Well this looks like fun. Go fang." Daniel said tossing the pokeball onto the field releasing a gible. the judge rose out of his pod

"Fang start out with slash." fang charged at happiny slashing it hard with its glowing claws.
"Oh my poor happiny, use sweet kiss." Amy said, happiny started to run after fang trying to kiss it.
"Fang stop it with sand tomb." fang concentrated and the ground around happiny changed into quicksand and causing a little damage.
"Happiny, that move deserves a present." happiny threw a box wrapped in a bow at fang. Fang walked up and touched the box curiously only to have it explode knocking him back for a lot of damage.
"Curiosity killed the cat , go for a sandstorm." fang growled and caused sand to whip around the arena.
"Happiny use metronome." happiny started to wave its hands back and forth until it started to glow. However much to Amy's dismay happiny immediately exploded and passed out, fang however managed to doge the blast.
"Happiny is unable to battle, the winner is Daniel." the judge said
"Nice work fang, return." Daniel said recalling fang
