Capture 6 – Gust in the Forest
Ash woke up from a sudden pain he felt on his stomach. His eyes noticed that all three of his Pokémon where looking at him with curious eyes.
"Is my king alright?" Ellenor asked tilting her head (body) to the side a bit. Ash was about to answer, but-
"Of course Alpha is! Alpha is very strong and is not easily hurt by Ellenor, Kobalt or Ambrose" Ambrose stated in a 'as a matter of fact' tone.
"Ahhhh" Ellenor nodded understanding what Ambrose meant while Kobalt just facepalmed and shook his head from side to side. Seeing this made Ash chuckled slightly, making the three albinos look at him.
"It's alright guys" Ash stated, starting to sit down on the bed. His Pokémon leaving his stomach in the progress. "I think is time to head to our adventure!" This gained a roar of approval of all of his Pokémons.
Ash stood up and looked at the nearby mirror that was there and nodded seeing that he was at least presentable and not looking like a nobody. He was about to exit, but suddenly stopped and turned around.
"Ellenor"
"Yes my king?"
"Will you allow me to scan you with my PokéDex? I just want to see how strong you are at the moment and what I can do to make you even stronger" Ash said making Ellenor nod.
"But what about Ambrose, Alpha? Alpha hasn't scanned Ambrose yet!"
"Ambrose… I scanned you yesterday"
"… Alpha did?" Ambrose asked while tilting his head.
"Yes Ambrose, sorry that I didn't asked you when I did, but you looked so concentrated while talking to Kobalt that I just scanned you" Ash apologized.
"… Huh, would Alpha at least tell Ambrose later? Ambrose really wants to know what Ambrose is able to do"
"Of course Ambrose, of course" Ash said. "Now…" He added while pointing his Pokétch at Ellenor.
"Venonat, the Insect Pokémon. Venonat are able to use their eyes as radars able to find food or escape from their predators. The ooze that fluids out of their body is very poisonous, and is one of the reasons why many other Pokémon try to avoid them. And when there a big light, Venonats are attracted towards the light.
This Venonat's Information:
Given Name: Ellenor
Owner: Ash
Gender: Female
Typing: Bug/Poison
Height: 2'6"
Weight: 54.6lbs

Everyone, minus Ellenor, blinked and looked at her.
"What?" The Venonat asked making her fellow albino drop to the floor, twitching. Ash chuckled and recalled both Ellenor and Kobalt into their Poké Balls.
"Come on Ambrose! We'll talk about what the PokéDex told me about you while walking towards the Gym" Ash said making the Growlithe nod.
Time skip; Viridian City Gym
"It's closed! Come on!" Ash wasn't in a very good mood. All his excitement went down the drain when he and Ambrose arrived at the Gym and saw a note on the door saying that it was closed for maintenance.
"It's alright Alpha! Alpha, Ambrose and the others can go towards the next Gym and when we come back, Alpha will be smarter and Ambrose be stronger!" Ambrose said trying to motivate his Alpha once more.
"Hmmm… You're right Ambrose! If I want to be the best, then I must never falter!" Just then, his Pokétch started to ring, the phone application coming to life.
"Huh? I wonder who could it be?" Ash answered, not knowing what was coming for him.
"ASH!" Said boy fell down on his but, near Ambrose.
"Alpha!" Ambrose got near him and began to tuck his body with his head. "Is Alpha alright? Shall Ambrose deal with whoever made Alpha fall to the ground?" The Puppy added making Ash shake his head.
"It's alright Ambrose… It's just my mother see" Ambrose looked at the watch his Alpha had on and could see a brown haired woman.
"Why didn't you call me when you arrived at Viridian City?! I told you to call! Where you alright? Did you eat? Did you change-"
"Mom!" Ash dragged it out for a bit. "I'm alright. I'm sorry for not calling earlier, but Ambrose, my Growlithe, was hurt before I capture him and was taking care of him" Ash explained making Delia sigh a bit in relief.
"Alright then" Delia looked directly at Ambrose. "Awww! Who's a cute little Growlithe!" Delia cooed seeing how adorable Ambrose looked.
"Hey! Ambrose's not cute! Ambrose's cool or awesome, or even amazing! But Ambrose is not cute!" Ambrose barked, but Delia only got: "Grrrr Grow! lithe Grow Grow Growlithe! Growlithe!"
"Aww isn't he adorable Ash?"
"Adorable?!"
"Hey mom" Delia looked at her son. "Look, I have to go. I need to go through Viridian Forest to arrive at Pewter City"
"Alright Ashy. Hope to see you soon" Delia said. "Love you"
"Love you too, mom" With that, the screen of Ash's Pokétch turned back to normal.
"What does Alpha's mother think Ambrose is! Ambrose is not cute! Ambrose is not adorable!" Ash chuckled sheepishly seeing his Growlithe walk from side to side, the Puppy Pokémon trying to understand what made him cute or adorable.
"Ambrose" Said Ash making his Pokémon look at him. "I'll let you out when we begin to make camp at Viridian Forest, alright?" Getting a nod in return, Ash recalled his Pokémon back into his Poké Ball and started to head towards the Gate that separated Viridian City from its forest.
Time skip
Ash was already half way into the forest when he decided to rest. Looking around, he saw a small clearing and decided to head there.
"Guys, come on out!" Taking his three Poké Balls from his belt, he tossed them into the air releasing his Pokémon.
His three Pokémon looked at him as if waiting for something. Seeing this made Ash shake his head.
"Not yet guys. I'm going to rest for a bit. If you want to train, be my guess. But this time use it to relax, alright? Then we'll start training for a bit before we follow the road towards Pewter City" Ash explained making all three of them nod.
Ash sat down and started to looked on his backpack for something for all of them to eat. He frowned seeing that he had enough for two days for all of them.
"Note to self: buy food when we arrive at Pewter" Ash thought as he saw Ambrose lying down of his stomach next to him. He smiled as he scratched him just behind the ear, making Ambrose growl in delight.
"More…More!" The Growlithe pleaded as Ash just continued to scratch him.
Kobalt was meditating on a rock that was very near to the clearing, maybe two feet away from it. And Venonat, always the curious one, was bothering him with so many questions.
*Fwoosh*
All of a sudden, Ellenor is not there… What?!
"Huh?" The Pokémon in question couldn't comprehend what happened, but then looked up to see a Pokémon that for some reason, had the same trait as her and her two friends.
This Pokémon is a raptor-like avian Pokémon. It is covered with white feathers, and has a gray-colored face, underside, and flight feathers. It has a crest of light gray feathers on its head and black, angular markings behind its red eyes. The plumage of its tail has alternating slate gray and dark slate gray feathers with ragged tips. Its beak and legs are dark gray. Two of its toes point forward, while one points backward. Additionally, it has powerful, sharp talons that it uses to grasp prey. This is Pidgeotto, the Bird Pokémon.
The Pidgeotto left the Venonat go at the top of a tree, showing her back to Ellenor. The bird looked behind for a bit, noticing the curious look of the Venonat.
"Don't be afraid little one" This made Venonat a bit more curious. "I'm going to save the other two from that human so that the four of us can escape from him" The Pidgeotto said. It made Ellenor have even more questions. But before she could say anything, the Pidgeotto took of to 'save' her fellow albino Pokémon.
"Ellenor!" Ash screamed. "Ambrose, Kobalt… I need your help!" Both Pokémon stood beside him in second as they watched the avian Pokémon land in front of them.
"Friends come… You shall be freed from the barbaric hands of this human!" Pidgeotto curse at Ash while trying to convince the Pokémon beside him.
"Please Pidgeotto… I just want my Venonat back and we'll get out of your territory" Ash tried to plead, not caring if the avian Pokémon was also a albino like his three Pokémon. If it meant that sacrificing one of his Pokémon just to get another… Well, he'll have to find it in another place because he wasn't going to risk any of them!
"I speak for my Master when I said to give her back, NOW! She may annoy us sometimes, but she is one of us… So I'll give you ten second before I burn those wings of yours" Kobalt threaten, glaring at the Pidgeotto. But the avian didn't looked afraid.
"Listen to yourse-" She didn't have time to finish, when a massive fireball slammed into her, making the Pidgeotto fly back slamming into a now burned down tree. What stood in front of the downed Pidgeotto was a snarling Growlithe.
"Pidgeotto doesn't threaten Alpha! Pidgeotto doesn't kidnap Ambrose's friend! Or else Ambrose is going to hurt Pidgeotto more than Ambrose already has done!" This made Pidgeotto looked at the trainer, seeing in his eyes what looked like a sympathetic look.
"That's enough, Ambrose"
"But Alpha-"
"I said enough" Ash's emotionless voice made Ambrose take various steps back, giving Pidgeotto some space. Ash saw that Ellenor was already floating down towards him, so he extended his arms to catch her… And so he did.
Pidgeotto looked at the four living beings that where in front of her with disgust, but curiosity. She couldn't comprehend how a Pokémon could follow orders from humans! The same specie that kidnap her father when she was just a little Pidgey! But seeing this trainer made her think about what she thought of humans.
She already knew that humans, at least most of them, destroyed some Pokémon habitats just to build their cities! Humans also poached them just to get a some money into their pockets! And she has seen it, she has seen some of the bigger Pidgeys in the area get poached just to make simple money out of them.
But this human didn't act like any of the humans she has seen before! He didn't said that he wanted to capture her into his team or anything of the sorts. The first thing he said was to give him the Venonat, in which she heard was called Ellenor, back to him. And if he wanted to capture her, he could have done it when the Growlithe, or Ambrose as she seemed to recalled hearing the Puppy Pokémon say, in which was weird hearing him talk in third person, hit her with Burn Up if she seemed to recall. But instead, he commanded Ambrose to stand down.
"Why… don't you… capture me?" Asked the Pidgeotto, panting all the way as she kept analyzing the human.
"I will only capture you if it's alright with you" This made Pidgeotto take a step back. This…human…
"Can I tell you my dream?" Pidgeotto nodded still dumbfounded about the earlier comment. "My dream is to capture every Pokémon that have similar traits like my other three Pokémon, in which is albinism" Ash let Pidgeotto look at his Pokémon and was now that she realized that this human capture only Pokémon that had this albinism… just like her.
"I formally ask you if you want to join my team?" Ash smiled as he and his Pokémon looked at her, awaiting her response.
"I'll… join you, but on one condition… You must show me your strength. If you are weaker than me, then you will leave this forest with your current Pokémon, but if for some reason you are stronger than me…" At this, the Pidgeotto stopped for a moment. "If for some reason your stronger than me, I'll will join your team. Deal?" Pidgeotto finished as al she got was a nod and a smile from the human.
"Ambrose…" Said Pokémon looked at his trainer. "Do you want to finish what you started?" Ash didn't even need to hear Ambrose approval, because in a matter of seconds, he was in front of him in his battle stance.
"Ambrose ready when you are Alpha!" Ash smiled, but then thought on what to do. He knew that the Burn Up left Ambrose with no other way to use Fire-Type moves and left him type-less for a certain amount of time. So he had to improvise with Ambrose other moves.
"Use the trees to propel yourself and use Tackle each time you can, Ambrose" Ambrose quickly nodded running towards Pidgeotto.
The Bird Pokémon thought that the attack was only meant to be straight at her, so she moved out of the way, making Growlithe smirk. The Puppy Pokémon jumped at the burnt tree and Tackle her into the ground.
Pidgeotto glared at Growlithe before she started to flap her wings. It hurt to flap them, thanks to the Burn Up, but she managed to fly up.
"Ambrose!" The Growlithe's ears perked up. "When you see Pidgeotto fly towards you grab one of her wings with your mouth. Firstly use Leer and then use Bite to hurt her a bit" Ash tried to make Ambrose see what he meant by that. There were some things that he couldn't just say outright.
Ambrose was in a looked out for the Bird Pokémon, but he always got hit by an Aerial Ace from the Pidgeotto. Ambrose was getting annoyed, so when he heard her dash towards him he tried to jump on her back, but failed miserably when the Pidgeotto stopped for a second before flapping her wings at him, creating a Gust. Ambrose tried to stay on the ground, and would've tried to stay longer if it wasn't for his trainer.
"Use the Gust and go towards her and use Bite!" Knowing what to do Ambrose jumped, letting the gust of wind carry him around. Sooner than he expected it, he was in front of a widen eyed bird. He quickly Bite her wing making the bird screech in pain.
The Gust ended and both Pokémon's where at the ground panting.
"You're… Good" Pidgeotto said making Growlith give out a pained smile.
"Ambrose… could say… the same thing… about… Pidgeotto" This made the birdshake her head slightly. Unfortunately for her, that was her downfall. Moving as quickly as he could, Ambrose Tackle her in the gut sending her, once again, to the burnt tree.
"Give up… Ambrose… won't ask… a second… time" Pidgeotto looked at the Growlithe on top of her before sighing.
"I… give" She said making Ambrose fall to the side.
"Ouch… That hurt" Ambrose said as Ash and his other two Pokémon walked towards them.
"Great job Ambrose… You deserve some rest" Ash said before recalling Ambrose back into his Poké Ball. He took an empty Poké Ball and showed it to Pidgeotto.
"What do you say girl?" Ash asked, making Pidgeotto smile.
"It will be my honor, my liege. My name is Circe" The now named Circe didn't wait any longer and tapped to Poké Ball, instantly capturing herself. Ash smiled and hugged both Poké Balls.
"Thank you Ambrose and welcome to the team Circe"
