Okay I'm here with the latest chapter of The Ultimate Goal and I'll be introducing Team Plasma. Please enjoy!
Chapter Six
As we left our heroes, Ash and Dawn are now heading to Straiton City. But when they were about to head to Route 2 from Accumula Town, they see a rally at town central. A group of guys wear knight armor and they see a man in a robe speaks to the crowd.
Man in robe: My name is Ghetsis. I am here representing Team Plasma. Today, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to talk to you about Pokémon liberation.
Crowd: Pokémon liberation?
Ash: Liberation?
Dawn: Why would he say something like that?
Ghetsis: I'm sure most of you believe that we humans and Pokémon are partners that have come to live together because we want and need each other. However... Is that really the truth? Have you ever considered that perhaps we humans... only assume that this is the truth.
The crowd of people are confused about the speech.
Ghetsis: Pokémon are subject to the selfish commands of Trainers... They get pushed around when they are our "partners" at work... Can anyone say with confidence that there is no truth in what I'm saying?
Ash: NOT ALL TRAINERS ARE SELFISH!
Ghetsis: Excuse me young boy!
Ash: Some trainers battle with their Pokémon to bond with them so that they can trust each other.
Dawn: That's true, some of us would never push our Pokémon around. We understand their feelings by bonding with them.
Ghetsis: This is why we must liberate Pokémon all over the world, these trainer have no idea what their saying.
Ash: What! (Said angrily)
Ghetsis: Now, ladies and gentlemen, Pokémon are different from humans. They are living beings that contain unknown potential. They are living beings from whom we humans have much to learn. Tell me, what is our responsibility toward these wonderful beings called Pokémon?
Some people in the crowd agreed and disagreed in Pokémon liberation. Ghetsis and his Plasma grunts pick up their stuff and left the area while a strange man with green hair comes up to Ash and Dawn and says.
Strange Man: Your Pikachu and Piplup seems to have a strong bond with you two.
Dawn: Who are you?
Strange Man: Forgive me, my name is N and I have the ability to hear the inner voices of Pokémon.
Ash: I'm Ash and this is my best friend Pikachu.
Dawn: And I'm Dawn and this is my partner Piplup.
Ash: So you can hear the inner voice of our Pokémon?
N: Yes, I can understand every inner voice of Pokémon. The speech rally of Team Plasma was inspiring that it made me to help people to liberate their Pokémon.
Ash: But why?
N: Some Pokémon don't like to be with their trainers, but your Pokémon seem to be happy and I know they can't lie but they are really happy to be with you two.
Dawn: Even the Pokémon in our Pokéballs?
N: Yes, well it was nice meeting you two. I wish you a safe journey and let us meet again soon.
N soon left Accumula Town to look for more answers. Ash and Dawn were a little skeptical about Pokémon liberation, but they in their hearts that they'll never liberate any of their beloved Pokémon.
As Ash and Dawn are about to leave Accumula Town, Dawn notice a poster of a battle club here at Accumula Town.
Dawn: Hey Ash look.
Ash: What is it?
Dawn: A poster of a battle club.
Ash: Lets see, Accumula Town's Battle Club hosted by Don George.
Dawn: How about you train over their before your first gym battle sweetie?
Ash: Yeah that sounds great.
Ash and Dawn are now their way to the battle club. While walking to the battle club, Dawn grabs Ash's hand so they can hold hands just to feel safe.
Accumula Town Battle Club
Ash and Dawn have arrived at the battle club and they enter to the main lobby where Ash and Dawn can register. After registering, Ash and Dawn found the battle room where a battle is taking place now. Two trainers are battling against each other with their Dewott and Servine.
Trainer 1: Service use Leaf Tornado.
Trainer 2: Use Hydro Pump to counter it and finish Servine with Razor Shell.
Dewott counter the Leaf Tornado and landed a critical hit on Servine causing it to faint.
Don George: That's enough, now go get Servine heal up.
Trainer 1: Yes sir.
Ash and Dawn introduce themselves to Don Goerge.
Ash: Hi I'm Ash.
Dawn: And I'm his girlfriend, Dawn.
Don George: And I'm Don George, Battle Manager of the Accumula's Battle Club. Nice to meet you two. Say this is a Pikachu and a Piplup isn't it?
Ash and Dawn: Yeah.
Don George: This is the first I seen these two in the Unova region.
Ash: Well me and Pikachu are from the Kanto region.
Dawn: I'm from the Sinnoh region.
Don George: Well you are welcome to battle here as long as you like.
Trainer 2: Hey is that a Pikachu and a Piplup?
Ash: Yeah.
Trainer 2: That's so cool; hey want to have a tag battle? You two against me.
Ash: Sure, how about it Dawn?
Dawn: Sounds fun.
Trainer 2: Alright, my name is Kyle by the way.
Ash: Nice to meet you Kyle.
Don George: Okay I'll be refereeing the match, so begin.
Kyle: Dewott and Lampent Go!
Ash and Dawn check their Pokédex to see the information of the two Pokémon they'll be battling against.
Ash's Pokédex: Dewott, the Discipline Pokémon, and the evolve form of Oshawott. Through rigid training, Dewott uses the double-scalchop technique to accomplish its fluid swordsmanship.
Dawn's Pokédex: Lampent, the Lamp Pokémon. The spirits it absorbs fuel its baleful fire. It hangs around hospitals waiting for people to pass on.
Ash and Dawn are about to call in their first Pokémon.
Ash: Pikachu I choose you!
Dawn: Piplup spotlight!
Pikachu and Piplup are ready for battle, but Oshawott let himself out of the Pokéball.
Ash: Huh Oshawott? Why you let yourself out of your Pokéball?
Oshawott: OSHA OSHA OSHA WOTT! (Wanting to battle)
Ash: You want to battle?
Oshawott: OSHA! (Nodded in agreement)
Oshawott then takes a look at his opponents and decided to let Pikachu battle instead with Piplup.
Oshawott: Osha Osha! (Pushing Pikachu to his place)
Don George: Let the battle begin!
Kyle: Dewott use Razor Shell on Piplup and Lampent use Will-O-Wisp on Pikachu.
Ash: Pikachu dodge and use Thunderbolt on Lampent.
Dawn: Piplup use Peck on Dewott.
As the battle started, Pikachu was burn by the Will-O-Wisp while Piplup landed a powerful Peck on Dewott. Kyle order Lampent to use Hex on Pikachu which cause some serious damage to Pokémon that have a bad condition. Pikachu manage to avoid, but he took damage from the burn.
Dawn: Piplup use Whirlpool!
Piplup: PIIIIIIPPLUUUUUUPP
Piplup got both Dewott and Lampent in the Whirlpool and Lampent was unable to battle. Dewott is still fighting strong and Kyle order it to use Razor Shell on both Pikachu and Piplup.
Ash and Dawn: Dodge it!
Pikachu manage to dodge it, but Piplup got hit bad and he was knock out.
Dawn: Piplup return. (She recall Piplup to its Pokéball) Alright sweetie its all up to you, I know you can do this.
Ash: Thanks Dawn, love you.
Ash: Pikachu use a combination of Quick Attack and Volt Tackle for the final blow.
Kyle: Dewott use Aqua Jet to finish it!
Pikachu use both Quick Attack and Volt Tackle and Dewott uses Aqua Jet to finish the battle. When the two collided it, the explosion covers the whole field making hard to see who won. Just when the smoke cleared, both Pikachu and Dewott were both standing, facing against each other. After a few seconds of facing at each other, Dewott collapse to the ground fainted.
Don George: Dewott is unable to battle, so which means our winner is Pikachu.
Ash picks up Pikachu and thanked him for the wonderful battle. Both Ash and Kyle shake hands, Ash and Dawn both left for the healing center in the battle club to heal up their Pokémon.
After their Pokémon were fully healed, an alarm went off in the battle club.
Ash: What's going?
Don George: Someone has broken into the storage rooms.
Ash: Can we come with you to see?
Don George: The more the merrier.
They both headed towards the storage room and nothing was robbed. Hey head to the security room to use the camera's recording to see who broke in.
Just when they found the right recording, Don George's assistant played the video.
It shows two people with a Meowth breaking into the storage room and a silhouette of a Pokémon running out the room.
Ash and Dawn: Team Rocket!
Don George: Team Rocket?
Dawn: There a bunch of bad guys who steal Pokémon from trainers.
Ash: What was that Pokémon that ran out before Team Rocket left the room?
The assistant replay the video and paused at the Pokémon running out of the storage room.
Ash then gets his Pokédex to match the shape of the silhouette.
Ash stops at Pokédex entry #197.
Ash: Here take a look at this.
Pokémon: Umbreon, the Moonlight Pokémon, and one of the many evolve forms of Eevee. The rings of Umbreon's body glow faintly when exposed to the moon's aura, and it gains a mysterious power.
Don George: An Umbreon? What's a Pokémon from the Kanto region here in Unova? There extremely rare here in Unova.
Ash: I don't know but I like to find out more.
As the group decided to catch the Umbreon, everyone split up to make the search easier.
Ash and Dawn decided to look around the storage buildings.
Dawn: Hey I got an idea.
Ash: What is it?
Dawn: I'll place a tray of poffins in front of the door here.
Ash: That sounds great.
Dawn place the tray of her homemade poffins to lure Umbreon.
After a while of waiting, Umbreon came by and starts to eat the poffins, Ash and Dawn surprised it and it turns out to be a Tepig whose snout is tied up and its skinny from hunger.
Ash: Hey that's a Tepig.
Dawn: Yeah you're right.
The Tepig was scared and it runs away from the couple, Ash and Dawn tries to chase to help the Tepig. Just when made a turn to an alley. Tepig ran into a dead-end and it was approach by Ash who is trying to calm Tepig. Ash calmly pick up Tepig up remove the tied knot, Tepig was relief for having the knot removed. Dawn offered Tepig some her poffins, Tepig happily eat her poffins.
Ash: Hey Tepig want to come with us in our journey?
Tepig nodded in agreement to join Ash and Dawn in their journey, Ash gets one of his Pokéballs and Tepig taps the button in the middle of the capsule device. The Pokéball click which makes Tepig part of their family.
Dawn: Now you caught two starters of Unova. (Said with joy)
Ash: Yeah, lets go tell Don George that Tepig was the mystery Pokémon.
Dawn: Right.
The couple soon go out to tell Don George about the mystery Pokémon was Tepig, not a Umbreon. Don George was a little disappointed but he soon gets over it.
Ash and Dawn are about to leave for Straiton City for Ash's first Unova gym battle.
Don George: Well I wish you two good luck on your journey.
Ash and Dawn: Thanks.
Ash and Dawn soon depart Accumula Town and now there on their way to Straiton City. What more excitement can happen? Stay tuned as the journey continues.
Well that was Chapter Six. I will be posting Chapter Seven tomorrow, so stay tuned!
