We find our heros walking down the path that will take them to Cerulean City for their next gym battle. "According to the map, we're close to Mt. Moon" said Brock holding a map. "Mt. Moon?" asked Red.
'Right, We have to pass Mt. Moon to reach Cerulean City." said Ash. Misty stayed quiet when Ash mentioned her home.
"it sounds like a romantic place to go" said Lillie daydreaming about a certain raven haired boy. She blushed and hid it before anyone noticed.
"No, It doesn't" said Red with a raised eyebrow at Lillie. "I've read that long ago a Meteor crashed here " said Ash.
"Whoa!, is it true?" asked Misty
"Rumor has it that the meteor is a Moonstone." Brock said which Amber asked "Moonstone?'
"It's an Evolutionary stone that allows certain pokemon to evolve like Clefairy into Clafable." Ash answered his sister. Brock said "You know just about everything."
Ash chuckled to himself. "i know so much thanks to Riley,"
"Riley? who's Riley?" asked Lillie
"My mentor, Hes an Aura Guardian" said Ash which made both brock and Misty stop in their tracks. "I thought Aura Guardians was just a story," Spoke brock softly. "No ther're real alright and I'm training to become one." said Ash "Riley taught me everything from how to take care of pokemon, their likes and dislikes, Fighting, and Aura."
"What would i give to meet Riley." said Red. "He sounds like an awesome guy"
Thats when the gang heard someone screaming for help. "Someone needs help!, Let's go!" shouted Ash. The team ran to where the screaming was and saw a man in a lab coat getting attack by a group of Zubats.
"Zubats!" said Brock "In broad daylight"
Rotom began to speak "Zubat, the blind Pokémon with supersonic powers. Zubat live in caves and hate to fly outside in daylight."
"why are they outside if they can't stand the sun" said Lillie before she saw another pokemon that resemble a bat but was Lavender colored. Ash noticed it as well before he scanned it with his pokedex. "Noibat, the Sound Wave Pokémon. Noibat's ears emit ultrasonic waves that can disturb its prey's sense of hearing and damage opponents."
"A Noibat? That's very rare here in Kanto." stated Ash.
"Why Ash?" asked Misty before he answered "Noibat are found in caves all over the Kalos Region, It's a Flying and Dragon type." Brock then said "wow ash you wern't kidding when you said you did your studying"
"Thanks Brock, We need to help out that guy. Pikachu use Thunderbolt!" said Ash
Pikachu said "here i go!, Taste my lightning Zubats"
Pikachu sent his lightning at the Zubats paralyzing them, The Noibat let out a cry before firing a blue orb at them. "That was Dragon Rage!" said Brock as the gang dodged the attack. Red said "Sweet, My kind of pokemon!, Charmander lets catch that Noibat"
"Yeah lets go!" said Charmander.
"Use Ember!" said Red. Charmander sent out his fire attack at Noibat. Noibat used Supersonic to dispel the embers before it flew in for a tackle attack. Red said "Wait for it to get close and use your Dragon Rage"
Charmander waited for Noibat to get close before he used his own Dragon Rage attack on Noibat. Red took out a pokeball. "Go pokeball!" he shouted tossing the device at Noibat. Noibat was sucked into the Ball and the ball moved around for a few seconds. The pokeball stopped moving as Noibat was caught. "Yes!" shouted the excited boy as he picked up his newest capture. "I just caught a Noibat!"
"Yippee!" cheered his starter.
Red then released his newest capture. Noibat was alot calmer now. "Welcome to the team Noibat" said Red as the flying/dragon type landed on his other shoulder. "What's up bro" said Eevee greeting thier new friend. Ash and brock helped out the man. "Are you alright sir?" asked Ash.
"Yes, Thank you for the help" said the man. "Someone placed up all those lights within the caves which is making the pokemon that live in them very upset."
"Your right. Zubats need darkness because their nocturnal and only come out at night" said brock.
"Yes, My name is Seymour and i am a Researcher studying the Clefairy that live in the mountian." said Seymour.
"Clefairy, they live here" squealed Lillie. "I want to catch one because i love Clefairy."
Seymour lead the gang into the caves and saw the pokemon suffering from them. "The lights are making the Zubats very upset. normally they dont attack me" he said. "The Paras are planting mushrooms everywhere which is drying up the Sandshrews." he pointed to one Sandshrew that was hurt really bad from what looked like it got attack by a pokemon. Ash went over to the poor pokemon and began to treat his wounds. "Hang on little guy, i'll make you feel better in no time."
The gang watch him heal the Sandshrew. He then pulled out a bowl and filled it with pokemon food and water. "Here you go eat up" he said. Sandshrew began eating like it hasn't eaten in days. Red pulled out his pokedex. "Sandshrew, the Mouse Pokémon. Sandshrew hates moisture and lives in holes it digs in dry places. It protects itself by curling into a ball."
"What a nice young man. I don't usually see trainers like him" said Seymour.
"That's my big brother for you" said Amber
"A Ground type?, Wow this is the first one ive seen" said Lillie.
"What do you mean by that Lillie?' asked Brock.
'Becasue Alolan Sandshrews are Ice/Steel types, not Ground types." she said "I wanted to catch one but due to some things i had to come to kanto to begin my journey."
Sandshrew finished eating before it squeaked. It rubbed against his leg. "Your welcome Sandshrew" said Ash. "Still, Whoever put these lights up has no regard for the pokemon here."
He saw a small pink pokemon holding a small item. 'It's so cute!" squealed Misty and Amber.
"It's a Clefairy" said Lillie. Rotom began scanning Clefairy. "Clefairy, The Fairy Pokemon, This impish Pokémon is friendly and peaceful. It is believed to live inside Mt. Moon, although very few have ever been seen by humans zzzt"
"I can't beileve it a real clefairy!" screamed an excited Lillie.
"I wouldn't mind catching it for my team" said Red pulling out a pokeball which earned a protest from everyone. *Clang!* Ash hits his cousin on the head with his pan. "Ouch! Why do you keep hitting me with the pan!" groaned Red.
"Because it would be best if you left it alone" said Ash.
'You could have told me" said Red.
"And would you listen to me? you got the attention span of a Venonat." Ash said with Sarcasm. Red pointed it out. 'Oh look a Paras!". The gang did an anime fall as a Paras crawled up a column. Seymour sweatdropped at the trainers. The one boy was well matured than his cousin. The team heard the Clefairy cry out for help. The group hurried and saw Clefairy being harrased by Meowth of Team Rocket.
"It's Meowth agian" said Amber not liking the cat. "Yikes its the Twerps" said Meowth. Clefairy ran from meowth and hid behind Lillie. It was shaken in fear. "Don't worry Clefairy,i'll keep you safe." she said. Clefairy looked calmed at her words. "So its you that's causing the trouble here" said Misty. Jessie and James appeared behind Meowth. 'did you say trouble?' asked Jessie.
'we'll make it double" said James.
(Motto time!)
"Prepare for Trouble"
"Make it Double"
"To protect the world from devestation"
"To unite all people within our nation"
"To denouce the evils of truth and love"
"To extend our reach to the stars above"
"Jessie"
"James"
"Team Rocket blasting off to the speed of light"
"Surrender now or prepare to fight"
"Meowth! dat's right"
(End Motto)
The gang could only look at the idiots with a raised eyebrow. "Who the fuck are these clowns?" asked Red only to be hit by Ash's frying pan. *Clang!* "watch what you say Red. Amber is with us and too young to be expose to those words" Ash scolded his cousin as Red as seeing Staryus.
"Who are they Ash?" asked brock.
"These three idiots are apart of Team Rocket. They go around stealing pokemon from trainers" answered Ash. "Their intro is just so idiotic"
"How dare you mock our intro Twerp!" said James before he released his Koffing 'go Koffing!"
"You as well Ekans!" said Jessie releasing her snake. "Are you the ones who put up all these lights" Lillie gestured to the lights.
"Yes, were trying to find dat Moonstone" said Meowth.
"Your hurting the local wildlife here because of your stupidity" said Seymour. Ash looked at brock. 'mind giving me a hand Brock?'
"No problem Ash" said Brock. Ash looked at Lillie. "Lillie can you take everyone else to safety." She nodded before she lead the others away. Ash then sent out Riolu as Brock sent out a Zubat, "A Zubat?" asked Ash.
"Yeah, I caught one that was paralyzed by Pikachu's Thunderbolt" said Brock.
Team Rocket looked at Ash's Riolu. "What's dat!" asked Meowth. James had a book before he said "It's a Riolu, a Fighting Type from the Sinnoh Region."
"Ekans use Bite!" said Jessie
"Koffing use Tackle!" said James.
Ekans and Koffing charged at the two pokemon about to use their attacks. "Zubat use Supersonic!" said Brock. Zubat sent out a high pitch Supersonic attack at the two. Ekans and Koffing began to fight each other. 'Hey!, your suppose to fight them not each other!" shoutedJames.
"Riolu use Aura Sphere! to get rid of them" said Ash. Riolu formed an Aura Sphere and fires it at the crooks. They was sent away from the blast and was unconcious. "Great job Riolu" said Ash as Riolu climbed on his shoulder. "Thanks Ash" said the small jackel
"You too Zubat" said Brock as the Bat landed on his shoulder getting praised by his trainer. That's when they noticed Meowth wasn;t with them. "Crap! he must have gone after Clefairy" Ash said.
"We can catch up with them" said Brock as the two went after them. With the others, Clefairy was leading them to its friends in a hurry. "Wait clefairy we cant keep up" said Lillie. Greninja had Amber on his back. Pikachu was on her shoulder. All the sudden Meowth appeared. "Found ya!, Hand over the Moonstone.
"Leave Clefairy alone you big meanie!" said Amber from her spot on Greninjas back. Teddiursa was beside them. 'Taste my Fury Swipes!" said Meowth preparing to use his attack on her. A squeak was heard as a glob of mud hits the cat pokemon in the face. Sandshrew appeared in front of them. 'It's Sandshrew!" said Misty.
"Out of my way!" said Meowth.
"No, I won't allow you to hurt them" said Sandshrew before it curled up in a ball and charged at Meowth. "That's Rollout!" said Seymour. Sandshrew hits meowth with the Rollout attack before he let out cry as rocks appeared over it. "It's using Rock Tomb!" said Seymour. Sandshrew hurled the rocks at Meowth knocking him out. Ash and Brock manage to catch up to them. "Are you guys okay?" he asked.
"Big brother!" cried the little girl before flinging herself in his arms. She got a little scared from Meowth. "Sandshrew saved us from Meowth." she said looking at the ground type. "it did?" ash said before he knelt down towards Sandshrew. "Thank you for saving my little sister Sandshrew" said Ash.
"no problem" squeaked the mouse pokemon. Everyone felt calm now that the crooks was dealt with. Clefairy kept on staring at Lillie. Ash and brock began to feed the pokemon to replenish their strenght. ash even had a bowl of pokemon food out for Sandshrew. "Where did you learn to make your own pokemon food Ash?" asked Brock as he noticed Ash give the pokemon his own made pokemon food.
'My mom and professor oak taught me" said Ash as they watch the pokemon eat. "I can't wait to watch the Clefairy evolve." sad an excited Red.
"Me too!" said Amber
"I wouldn't mind seeing such an event if its okay with Clefairy?" said Ash looking at the fairy type. Clefairy said "Of course you can come as thanks for saving me."
"Really its okay?" said Ash
The pink pokemon nodded before Ash said to his friends. "Clefairy said its alright for us to come"
"Sweet!" said Lillie. the group picked up the food bowls before following Clefairy to where the event was going to be. the group arrived at the sight and saw a giant Moonstone. "The rumors was true, It is a Moonstone!" said Brock
"That's a Moonstone?' asked Red looking at the rock.
"It's huge!" said Amber with stars in her eyes. Seymour said 'Ive never seen such a sight, Fastinating!" he was glad to finally to found the Moonstone. More Clefairy soon arrived as each of them had a Moonstone. The moon was over the hole in the Cavern ceiling. "Its about to start" said Misty. The Moonstone began to glow blue as Clefairy began to dance around it prayingto it.
"Legends says that humans are suppose to ride to rock to the stars" stated Seymour.
"Really?" asked a stepical Misty. Before the ceremony could continue. a rumble was heard as a giant mech appeared and took the moonstone. "Team Rocket!" shouted red.
'Thanks for leading us to the Moonstone Twerps" said Jessie. Seymour was crossed that these crooks was disturbing the ceremony by stealing the moonstone."Return the Moonstone to the Clefairy now!"
'Oh yeah you gonna make us?" said Meowth.
"No we are,Nebby come on out!" said Lillie releasing Nebby from her pokeball. Nebby gave the crooks a very mean glare. 'What the heck is that?" screamed Jessie.
"Nebby use Psychic to recover the Moonstone!" said Lillie. Nebby's third eye appeared as the Moonstone was taken from the Mech. Nebby placed the stone right back to its resting place. "Hey give that back Twerpette!" shouted James. "Nebby use Shadow ball on that mech!" said Lillie. Nebby formed a Shadow ball and fired it at the mech destroying it. Team rocket recovered as James sent out Koffing. Jessie sent out Ekans. Sandshrew move in front of ash. "You want to battle with me Sandshrew?"
The ground type nodded at him. Ash pulled out his pokedex to know Sandshrew's moves. (This Sandshrew knows the moves, Rollout, Fury cutter, Rock Tomb, Rapid spin, Dig, Earthquake, and the Egg move Metal Claw"
Ash said "That's impressive moveset Sandshrew." Sandshrew squeaked in praise. 'Use Dig Sandshrew!"
Sandshrew dug underground as red gave Noibat a command. 'Use Tackle on Koffing!"
Noibat landed a Tackle on koffing just as Ekans was fling into the air by Sandshrew. They crashed into their trainers The Clefairy began to move their fingers all at once much to everyones confusion. "What are they doing some kind of dance?" asked Jessie. The Clefairy was mad at the villains for trying to take their Moonstone. they chanted while moving their fingers left to right.
"What are they doing?" asked Red.
"Ther're using Metronome, Any attack can happen at full power" said Seymour
"Full Power!" shouted the gang. the Clefairys fingers stopped moving. they began to form orange spheres which Ash said "It's Hyper Beam!"
"Get down!" said Seymour just as the Clefairy launched the attack at the crooks sending them away. "Dang it, I really wanted that Moonstone" complained Jessie.
"Why cant we win just for once" said James.
"Looks like Team Rockets blasting off agian!" said the three
The smoke cleared and everyone saw Nebby was in front of them. A blue shield covered them and the Moonstone. "What move is this?" asked Red.
"It's Safeguard" said Brock as the sheild vanished. "Thanks Nebby" said Lillie before she returned her. The ceremony continued as several Clefairys evolved into Clefable. Rotom then scanned Clefable, "Clefable, the evolved form of Clefairy. These unique creatures are among the rarest Pokémon in the world."
"Wow i cant believe we got to see this" said Misty as the Clefairys and Clefables danced around the Moonstone. The gang decided to make camp for the night as Ash said 'You guys want to learn to communicate with Pokemon? i did tell you i would teach you"
"Yes please big brother" said Amber. Ash then said "Alright, first what i want you all to do Meditate. Everyone has Aura but if Meditated. it can be used to understand pokemon"
The five closed their eyes and began to meditate. All of them had their pokemon out. Ash watch them as a light blue aura came over them. 'Exellent, now reach out to your pokemon with your hand and let the Aura bond you together." They did as he told them. Ash and Seymour watched as they all glowed blue. "Alright now open your eyes." he said. The five open their eyes.
"did it work?' Lillie asked ash which she heard Snowy said "I think so Lillie?'
"I heard Snowy! It worked!" said Lillie hugging Ash. The boy had a huge blush on his face. Pikachu started laughing but stopped when his trainer gave him a dark glare. '"This is awesome Ash, thank you" said Brock petting his Onix. "now i can talk to Onix."
"You guys are welcome." said Ash. "We need to get some sleep. We're heading for Cerulean city tomarrow."
Misty said Can we go to another town besides Cerulean?, Maybe Vermillion"
"No way, Cerulean city is where were going to get out next badge!" said Red. 'Yeah! what Red said" said Eevee.
The gang soon tucked in for the night. morning came as we find our heros outside the caves. "I can't thak you all for saving the Moonstone" said Seymour.
"It's no trouble at all" said Brock. The group soon started to walk down the path waving bye to Seymour and the Clefairys. As the group walked away. Pikachu and Greninja noticed they was being followed by Sandshrew and a Clefable. 'Hey guys, we got some stalkers" said Pikachu. The gang stopped as Clefable and Sandshrew joined them. Sandshrew went to ash as Clefable hugged Lillie. "I remember you, Your the Clefairy we helped out"
''I guess it was one of the Clefairy to evolve" said Misty.
"Do you want to come with us?' Ash asked the two pokemon. They nodded as Ash caught Sandshrew and Lillie caught Clefable. 'Sandshrew bonded to you whe we were in the cave just like Clefable bonded with Lillie." stated Brock. With two new friends. The group walked down the path until they came upon a sign. "Hey look a sign" said Amber reading the signed before she got mad. "What's wrong Amber" said Ash as he read the sign.
"Gary was here, Ash is a Loser"
"Really Gary?, Well see who the loser is at the Indigo League." said Ash a little mad as he picked up his sister. The others followed him down the path.
