Me: Once again here is the Disclaimer, but to mix things up a bit, Ebony will say it.
Ebony: Why do I have to do it?
Me: Cause otherwise, I will force you to do something really embarrassing
Ebony: Hey! That's blackmail! Cheater.
Me: Then just say the Disclaimer already.
Ebony: Fine, Solana24 doesn't own Pokemon. There, happy?
Shingo: I knew she would, now pay up.
Autumn: Here.
Ebony: WHAT! You bet on wether I would say the disclaimer *Goes into a massive rant*
Me: Well on with the story
Chapter 4
Wednesday Morning (Shingo's POV)
We left early that morning, headed for Canalave City, and the events that would take place. It had been decided that while in this world, that the two girls should capture some Pokémon for their own safety. When they were to leave this world, the Pokémon they had captured were to be given to the person of their choosing. Although, it wouldn't surprise me if something happened, that at this current moment, I would not suspect.
I returned from my thoughts to discover a Jigglypuff about two feet in front of me. Due to her little knowledge of the wide variety of Pokémon, Autumn pulled up her Pokédex and looked it up.
"Jigglypuff, the balloon shaped Pokémon. When it wavers its big, round eyes, it begins singing a lullaby that makes everyone drowsy."
Great, I thought. Just what we needed. A stupid little Jigglypuff to sing and put us to sleep. At this rate, it would take months to just reach Canalave. And I did not have months to waste, not after all my hard work that I had put into my research. Not only that, I couldn't afford to miss the League Competition. It was where I would get my best research. And the fact that it only occurred once every year made it even worse.
I turned my attention back to the Jigglypuff, to discover, instead standing there was a wild Tauros. Anyone who knew anything about Pokémon knew not to mess with Tauros. They were dangerous at the best of times. Then a puff of smoke appeared around the Pokémon. When the wind finally blew away, it did not reveal the Tauros, but instead a Beedrill. There was definitely something wrong here.
Wednesday Morning (Solana's POV)
In my entire life I had seen many different Pokémon, but never had I seen one that transformed. But if I remembered correctly, when I was just beginning working as a Pokémon Ranger, there had been a rumor around about a transforming Pokémon called Ditto. But to find out, I had to find out a little more about this mysterious Pokémon.
"Autumn, may I please borrow your Pokédex for a second? I need to check something."
"Sure."
"Ditto, the transform Pokémon. Its transformation ability is perfect. However, if made to laugh, it can't maintain its disguise."
"Hey guys, I have an idea of what this thing is. If we can make it laugh, it should revert to it's original form. The only other way would be to make it be to defeat it, but if I am right and this thing is a Ditto, it won't be easy." I said.
"Of course, that would explain it!" Shingo exclaimed it. "How could I have not realised it."
At this, Autumn grabbed a Pokéball and tossed it into the air.
"Shinx, quickly attack the Beedrill with Thunderbolt."
WHAT! Her Shinx already knows Thunderbolt. She must have trained really hard to teach Shinx that move. I can't even imagine what other moves the rest of her Pokémon know. And if hers know those sorts of moves, I can't even begin to comprehend what Shingo's must know. Well, at least we found ourselves in the company of two extremely capable trainers.
Shinx braced itself as it let loose a electric charge with enough power to knock a person unconscious in a single bolt. The only problem was, that somehow, the Ditto dodged the attack. An attack, no matter how powerful, is worth nothing when it doesn't hit its target.
"Ok, you're not getting away that easily, use Double Team, then follow up with a mirage of move technique 351. "
"Move technique 351? What's that?" I whispered to Shingo.
"Well, in battles, as to not give the advantage to the opponent, Autumn taught her Pokémon to respond to numbers instead of the attack name. She only doesn't do this for the first couple of moves so that it confuses the opponent. Smart technique."
I watched as Shinx executed a perfect Double Team, then leapt onto the Beedrill and grabbed it's wings and clamped down on the struggling wild Pokémon. It then unleashed an even more powerful Thunderbolt than the first. That Ditto stood no chance against such a well trained enemy. Ditto fell to the ground and turned from the Beedrill form back into it's original one.
Seconds later, where the purple blob had been laying on the ground, a Pokéball lay. Autumn bent down and picked up the Pokéball that now contained a Ditto.
"Well, now that's taken care of, lets get a move on shall we?" Autumn asked. "Oh, actually, would you like a Pokémon, Ebony? I mean, you can't catch your first one without another Pokémon to battle with."
"Sure, my very own one, awesome! Can you and Shingo help me train it? I would really appreciate it." Ebony exclaimed.
As we continued along the path, we were unaware of the sinister presence that watched us from the shadows.
"Number 243, come in. Do they have any rare ones that we could sell as well? Don't know why the Boss accepted this job. We steal Pokémon, not kidnap trainers. This isn't our job."
"Number 146, just stick with the plan. They at least have at a Ditto, which might be worth something. We'll get them at the edge of the forest. There will be no one to hear them scream."
Author Note: Yay, four chapters done. Might see if i can get another one done before I go away for two weeks, although it might be a short one depending if I can get any good ideas. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks go to LastGenesis for taking the time to review my story and to Wild Imagination 7 for adding my work to your story alert and favorites list. Please R&R and HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
