Chapter 7: Journey to Oreburgh city

As we rest in the forest a bit, I decided to train that new move I learn from Jubilife city contest.

"Eeve hold charge your ice beam." Eeve begin building power in front of him.

"Use absolute zero flash on that rock." He rush into the rock, and smash it into rubble.

"That amazing Minato, I never seen someone using such a move before." Caitlin said, smiling.

"That move will be useful for you in the Oreburgh gym." Brock said.

"Why is that?" I ask.

"Because that gym is mostly rock type pokémon, and we know that you don't have a water type pokemon with you, this new move can do very high damage to rock, even though that is not their weakness." Suddenly from the bush a woman appear and look at us.

"Who is she?" Dawn ask.

"I thought people were not in here at this hour, oh, sorry for my rudeness, my name is Rosebay." Rosebay said. Brock begin flirting with the woman.

"So we meet in this forest and is love in first sight, maybe it was to destined for us to be married, and maybe you and me can have dinner and-" Croagunk hit him. "Or maybe we can go the hospital." Brock said in pain, and Croagunk drag him away.

"I wonder what that move is called." I ask

"Brock told us about this, that move is called poison jab, and when that move hits, that will happen to people and pokémon." Caitlin said.

"Hmm, I see, rest In peace Brock."

"What, you letting him die that easily." Dawn ask.

"You four are really good friend, I can tell." Rosebay said, smiling. "Also, I'm here to keep a watch for pokémons in this forest, do you want to see them for yourself."

"Minato, can we watch the pokemon." Caitlin pulling my shirt ask.

"I don't mind." I said.

"Yeah, let's watch the pokemon!" Dawn grab Caitlin's hand and both jump in joy.

"Let's both enjoy each other companies." Brock came back.

"Nice recovery" I said.

"Is that all you have to ask." Dawn said. We all decided to watch the pokémon in this forest with Rosebay, and watch the pokémons with her binocular. I borrow her binocular, and see different pokemon I never seen before.

"Let me see" Dawn said, and I gave her the binocular. "Amazing, so many flying-type pokemon together like this." After we enjoy the sights of pokemon, time quickly flew by, and it was evening.

"Is getting late, so let's setup camp." Brock said.

"You should come and sleep with me on my cabin for tonight." Rosebay said.

"That sound better than camping outside." Dawn said, and with that we decided to sleep tonight in the cabin. As we were about to sleep, I decided to stay up for a bit outside, and sit down and lean against the tree. I feel the cold breezes, and look up at the sky, and wonder when are the shadows going to appear, then I hear footsteps coming from the cabin, and see Caitlin hugging Eeve.

"Minato, why are you here?" Caitlin ask, yawning.

"Sorry, did I woke you up?" I said.

"No, Eeve heard you leave, and I woke up." She likes to carry Eeve around, and sleep with him, since she join us. She came next to me and sat down, looking up in the sky with me. "I had never thank you, for winning the battle against Darach and letting me travel with you." She blush, and looking down.

"Don't worry about, it's the right thing to do." She smile, and when she smile a pokemon appear, and start moving to Caitlin.

"I have seen this pokemon before, it's name is Ralts, and I heard that this pokemon appear in front of someone who's happy." Caitlin look at the pokemon, and the pokemon back at her, as if forming a bond. She took a pokeball out, and stretch her arm with the pokeball to Ralts, and with her arm she touch it, and enter the pokeball. Caitlin is shock to catch a pokemon, and she smile.

"Minato, Minato, did you see I catch a pokemon!" She is very excited to catch a pokemon.

"Congratulations Caitlin." I said. She yawn, and Eeve as well, and I got up. "Let's go inside, and sleep." She nodded, and grab my shirt to lead her to the cabin, and we head to the cabin to sleep. The very next day, we thanks Rosebay for letting us sleep in her cabin, and we continue with our travel to Oreburgh city. As we continue walking, we see mountains just up ahead, and Brock read his book.

"Ah, I see, After we pass this mountains, we will reach Oreburgh city." Brock said.

"We are close to the gym, that's good." I said.

"Let's rest for a bit, there's a pokemon center there." Dawn point to the pokemon center.

"Yeah, that sounds like a great idea, don't you think so Eeve." Caitlin said to Eeve.

"Eeva!" As we approach the pokemon center, we hear a strong wind coming from the forest, and we came closer to the sound, and see a nurse Joy helping a pokemon, but the pokemon attack. Brock came to nurse Joy side, and protect her, but he begin flirting.

"For us to meet like this, maybe you are the one in the other side of the red thread or-" Croagunk use poison jab on Brock, stunning him. "Or maybe I can use some medicines." Croagunk drag him away, and the pokemon begin attacking again.

"What's that pokemon?" Dawn ask, and took out her pokedex.

"Nuzleaf, the wily pokemon. Nuzleaf lives in dense, overgrown forests, and occasionally come out to frighten people."

"Pokémon will always be afraid of people, let's me see if I can help him." Brock takes a few step forward, and stop. "When the pokémon feel threaten, you must always be kind to them and put your hand behind you back to telling them you can trust him. Brock put both hands behind his back and walk to the pokémon. " Next you should be crouch level to the pokémon, and look at them in the eyes. Brock crouch right next to the pokémon. "Oh, I almost forgot something important." Brock took a leaf from a nearby tree, and blow on the leaf producing calming music for the pokémon. "Eat this." Brock took out a fruit, but the pokemon refuse to eat it. "That okay, come out Bonsly." Brock took out his pokeball, and Bonsly appear. "Can you eat this Bonsly."

"Bonsly." He took a small bite on the fruit.

"See, it won't harm you, so you can eat peacefully, and safely." The pokemon start eating. Brock took a bowl full of the same kind of fruit, "here you go, there more where that came from."

"Wow, that's amazing Brock." Caitlin said

"Yeah, nobody can do what you can do Brock."

"You can cook, and heal pokemon, that's wonderful." Dawn said.

"Thanks guys, this is a job for pokemon breeders like myself."

"But that's strange, why did a Nuzleaf come all the way here from his home?" nurse Joy said.

"What do you mean." Brock ask.

"Well, groups of Nuzleaf, and their evolutions are in a 100 year old tree, in the middle of the forest, and you can't find Nuzleaf anywhere, but on that tree."

"There has to be a reason for why this Nuzleaf has been separate from his family, and friends.

"Why don't we return him back to his family." Caitlin ask, and pull my shirt. "Can we Minato?"

"Sure, let's bring him back to that tree." I said, and she smile to my response.

"Thanks so much for helping this pokémon." Nurse joy said.

"It's no problem for us to help pokémon." Brock said, and we march to the tree where Nuzleaf is from. Bonsly and Nuzleaf enjoy talking with another, as they walk.

"They seem like old friends." Brock said. Dawn looks a bit sad.

"Yeah…like childhood friends." Before I can ask her a question, we were interrupted by two people and a pokémon.

"Hello there, we are here to look for a Nuzleaf." The man said.

"Correct, this Shiftry has been looking for that Nuzleaf for quite sometime." The woman said. Those two are team rocket, but everyone seem unworried about them.

"I see, then you can take him." Brock said.

"So that a Shiftry." Dawn said, and takes out the pokedex.

"Meowth, the scratch cat pokemon. When it sees a round objects, it plays and loses track of time."

"We forgot about your pokedex getting in our way." Meowth said, and those three got rid of their disguise, and jump to their balloon behind the trees.

"Even so, we have a backup plan." James said, and they launch a net to capture Bonsly, and Nuzleaf, but Brock chase after the net and grab hold of it.

"Caitlin." I said.

"Oh right, go Eeve." Caitlin said, and releasing Eeve.

"Eeve use ice beam." Eeve begin charging.

"Oh no you won't, Seviper use haze." Jessie said, and throwing her pokeball, releasing Seviper, and smoke cover them from view.

"Eeve stop" Eeve stop charging the ice beam.

"Why did you stop the attack." Dawn ask me.

"I could of hit Brock if I attack." I said.

"Yeah, you are right, let's go after them." I nodded, and we chase after the balloon. Meanwhile, with Brock tie around a tree.

"What do you have for dinner, Meowth." James said.

"Just food from the leftover we had last time." Meowth said. Brock had an idea to escape.

"I can make something delicious with that, I'm a gourmet chef after all." Brock said. They look at each other and nodded.

"If you can turn this into delicious food, then go ahead." After that deal, they release Brock, and he starts cooking for them. After finishing cooking, Brock served them, and they devour the food at a fast pace.

"Wow, this tastes delicious, I can't believe you turn that trash into this."Meowth happily said.

"You truly are the best gourmet chef." James said.

"We should keep him, so he can make delicious food for us everyday." Jessie said.

"There's more where that came from." Brock said, and they begin eating. Brock took this chance to grab the cage, where the pokémon are being held, and runs away. After a while, he stop, and decided to break the cage.

"Bonsly, use double edge to break this cage." Brock said, Bonsly tackle the cage two time, before crying. "I know is hard, but just one more time, please Bonsly." Bonsly nodded with confidence, and tackle again, breaking the cage, and releasing them. "That my Bonsly, you did it." Bonsly happily jump, but he begin glowing, and changing form.

"Sudowoodo?"

"Bonsly, you evolved into Sudowoodo!" Brock said.

"Sudowoodo!" Hand salute Brock. Back to us, We keep searching for Brock.

"Do you think Brock is okay?" Dawn ask.

"I'm sure he's okay." I said. "Let's keep searching." Meanwhile with Brock, he found a lake, and they need to cross it to keep moving forward, but Sudowoodo is scare of the water.

"I know you are scare Sudowoodo, but we need to keep moving." Brock said, and he nodded. As they cross the lake, and Brock safely cross the lake.

"Here, let me hold Nuzleaf for you." Team rocket appear with their balloon landing on land.

"You are going nowhere, after make us delicious food." Meowth said.

"And also give us that Nuzleaf." Jessie said.

"I'll never give Nuzleaf to you." Brock said, and putting him down.

"We'll see, Seviper go." Jessie throw the Pokeball and Seviper appear.

"Croagunk is all up to you." Brock send Croagunk, and he stand still.

"Seviper use bite." Scipio bites Croagunk's head, but he is unfazed by it.

"Croagunk use poison jab." Croagunk attack Seviper send him away.

"Alright, use poison tail." Seviper rush toward Croagunk.

"Croagunk use poison sting." Croagunk shoot needles from his mouth, and hits Seviper, also hitting the balloon, and exploding.

"Seviper use wrap." Seviper crush Croagunk with his tail, but Croagunk is still unfazed.

"Croagunk use brick break until you break out of there." Croagunk uses brick break many times knocking out Seviper, and fainted, but him as well.

"Carnivine, use bullet seed." James said, and Carnivine shoot bullets at Brock, and Nuzleaf. Sudowoodo hesitate to jump to the water, but he got the courage to step on the water, and protect Brock.

"Carnivine use bite."

"Sudowoodo dodge, then use double edge." Sudowoodo dodge, and tackle Carnivine.

"Carnivine use bullet seed."

"Use mimic" Sudowoodo mimic bullet seed, and both move clash.

"Brock." I said.

"You guys came back." Brock said.

"Wow, did Bonsly evolve." Dawn ask, and took out her pokedex.

"Sudowoodo, the imitation pokemon. Disguise as a tree, it's the evolved form of Bonsly."

"Do you need a hand?" I ask.

"No, this is Sudowoodo first battle, so we can't back down now, and also we must protect Nuzleaf." Brock said.

"Good luck." I said.

"Carnivine, use bullet seed." Carnivine shoot bullet, and hit Sudowoodo.

"Use double edge." Sudowoodo tackle through the bullet, and hitting him.

"Use bite." Carnivine bite Sudowoodo, and is not letting him go.

"Sudowoodo use flail." Sudowoodo start moving, and stomping around quickly, and releasing him from Carnivine bite.

"Now use bullet seed."

"Dodge, and use mimic." Sudowoodo dodge the bullets, and mimic his attack, hitting him, and fainted. After his loss, they both throw a pokeball, and two pokemon appear.

"Let's end this Eeve." Eeve stand in front of the two pokemon. "Eeve use absolute zero flash." Eeve begin charging ice beam, and use quick attack. Eeve drag the two pokémon to team rocket, exploding, and sending them away to the sky.

"Thanks Minato." Brock said.

"You did most of the work Brock, we should thank you." I said, and he smile.

"You did a great job Sudowoodo." Brock said.

"Sudowoodo."

"Let's go to Nuzleaf's home and return him back." Brock said, and we all nodded. As we arrive to the 100 year old tree, we see a family of Nuzleaf, and one big pokémon.

"Who is that?" Dawn took out her pokedex.

"Shiftry, the wicked pokémon. It's large fan can cause winds in excess of one-hundred feet per second, and can blow anything away." Nuzleaf approach his family, happy.

"Nuzleaf is back to his family, and friends." Brock said.

"Always stay near your family, and friends." Dawn said, and Nuzleaf nodded.

"Well, I hope we can see each other again." Caitlin said, waving goodbye. We left the tree, and continue with our journey.

"After we cross this mountain, we will arrive at Oreburgh city." Brock said.

"Are you ready for the gym battle, Minato." Dawn said.

"Of course."

"I'll be rooting for you." Caitlin happily said, and we walk to our destination, Oreburgh city.
