Pokemon Adventure - Kanto
Chapter Four
"A Rival Meeting!"
After some more training, Tizaria and her Pokemon rested for the night in the town Pokemon Center. (Though Tizaria found it hard to sleep with that creepy Nurse Joy around.) They had been walking out of their Pokeballs for a few minutes when a boy around Tizaria's age seemingly came out of nowhere. "Hey!" He said, running up to her.
"Uh, Hi." Tizaria replied.
"You're a trainer!" He said, throwing two Pokeballs in the air. Out came a Bulbasaur and a Rattata. "So am I!"
"Cool!" Tizaria said happily. "By the way, I'm Tizaria!"
"Caspian." He smiled. "Let's have a battle!" He suggested.
"Okay, sounds cool!"
"Tawny! You're up first!"
"Tat!" The purple mouse-like Pokemon growled, showing off it's teeth.
"It's the Rattata again!" Tizaria said, surprised. 'Caspian must've caught it after our battle!' She thought. "Okay then. Ryuu, up for another rematch?"
"Charmandah!" Ryuu said eagerly.
"You can make the first move." Caspian said.
"Okay, thanks! Ryuu, go! Use Ember!"
"Dodge, then Tackle!" Rattata dodged out of the way of Ryuu's Ember attack, but the fire Pokemon dodged out of the way as well and wasn't hit.
"Ember, again!"
"Focus Energy." Rattata just stood there, taking a direct hit from the fire attack. The purple mouse stayed put, taking another hit.
"Now! Use Quick Attack!" Rattata ran at Ryuu so fast that it seemed to disappear for a few seconds.
"Dah!" The Charmander took a direct hit, nearly fainting.
"Wow! How'd that happen?" Tizaria was surprised again.
"Check your PokeDex." Caspian said. "Huh? Oh, right." She reached into her back pocket and pulled out the small red computer, turning it on.
"Focus Energy, a Normal Type Attack. The user focuses it's power to raise the critical-hit ratio."
"Oh, wow. That's a pretty cool attack." Tizaria put the PokeDex back in her pocket.
"Yea, it is!" Caspian smiled. "Now Tawny, use Tackle!"
Ryuu was nearly knocked out, watching as the Rattata charged at him. "Charmander!" He said, scared. Rattata was getting closer. "Char..Man.." He started. "Dah!" Suddenly, a cloud of black smoke filled the area, confusing both Pokemon.
"Wow, Ryuu! You learned a new move!" Tizaria cheered.
"Smokescreen, a Normal Type Attack. Lowers the foe's accuracy using smoke or ink."
"Oh, so that's was that was.." She mumbled, looking down at her pocket. Rattata, in the mean time, had been running around aimlessly in the black fog. There was a THUD, and a few moments later the Smokescreen cleared to reveal a fainted purple mouse. Rattata had ran straight into a tree!
"Yea, we won!" The bruised Charmander danced tiredly with his Trainer for a few moments before being sent back into his Pokeball. "Alright. Hiroto, it's your turn!"
"Pidg, pidg, pidg-EY!"
"Okay Saur, you're next!"
"Hmm, never seen that before.." Tizaria mumbled.
"Bulbasaur, the Seed Pokemon. For some time after it's birth, it grows by gaining nourishment from the seed on it's back. This Pokemon is Grass and Poison type."
"Cool." Tizaria looked down at the screen, which showed a picture of a Bulbasaur. "You can go first this time!" She said happily, putting the PokeDex back in her pocket.
"Okay then. Saur, use Growl!"
"Hiroto, Sand Attack!"
"Pidg!" He nodded and began flapping his wings very hard in the direction of Bulbasaur, sand flying everywhere.
"Stay there." Caspian told his Pokemon. Soon the Sand Attack died out, and both Pokemon could see again. "Now, use Leech Seed."
"Leech Seed?" Tizaria checked her PokeDex.
"Leech Seed, a Grass Type attack. Plants a seed on the foe to steal energy on every turn."
"Oh, no! Hiroto, you gotta dodge that!" She called. "And use Gust!"
"Pidg!" He managed to dodge the Leech Seed, but Bulbasaur shot up another one just as Hiroto was about to use Gust. And this one hit. Green vines shot out from the seed on Hiroto's left wing, wrapping him entirely and causing him to fall down.
"Tackle!" Caspian said happily.
"Bulbasaur!" The frog-like Pokemon charged at the Pidgey.
"Quick, you gotta break free!" But it was too late. Hiroto was hit four times with Bulbasaur's Tackle before fainting. Tizaria ran over to him, putting him back into his Pokeball. "You did great." She said before looking back up at Caspian.
"Well, looks like it's a tie." She sighed. "That was a good battle.." She said a bit sadly. "But it was my first battle against another trainer. I guess I can't expect to do too well."
"That was your first battle?" A girl a few years older than Tizaria, about fifteen, walking out from inside the forest where she was hiding. "You did very good."
"Oh, thank you." Tizaria said happily.
"You're welcome. I'm Jennifer Fern." She said.
"Tizaria Wolfe." The younger trainer replied. "Hey, where'd he go?" She said, turning around a looking for Caspian.
"Where did who go?" Jennifer asked.
"His name is Caspian. I just had a battle with him, but now I don't know where he went."
"Oh, don't worry." Jennifer laughed a bit. "You'll see him again." She smiled.
