Chapter 8
Here Red, your Pokemon are ready to go, Hope to see you again.
Thanks.
After the loss to Blue, I went back to Viridian Pokemon Center to heal up. As I was there I looked into the badges Blue told me about. I needed to go get them in gyms and show them to get through the gates.
I left the center and looked around. After a few moments I found a gym, and I went to go in. However the door was locked and this old man standing outside said the leader was away and been gone for a while. So I decided to go on.
After a stop at the Mart for some items I went north to Viridian Forest. I learned from a man that a lot of bug types lived there, and I wanted to catch them. After a short walk and a few battles with Rattata and Pidgey to give them some experiance, I entered the forest.
I may have walked two steps when a green Pokemon came out to challenge me. Pidgey hit it with two tackles and it was mine after throwing one Pokeball. I learned its name is Caterpie. After that happened I saw another bug, and I used Rattata to weaken it. I did catch it, but the Weedle did poison Rattata. I did pick up a Antidote at the mart and it cleared Rattata up.
Then the moment I have been waiting for came as a boy shouted to me he wanted to battle. Charmander made real quick work of his two bugs. After the fight, I was walking deeper when a yellow blur came and challanged me. It was a Pikachu, and I was wanting to catch one so much. It was a challange, but after a tough battle I did catch it, it was amazing.
I ran into two other trainers and Pidgey made quick work of them too. I was happy to get out of there as my Pokemon did take a lot of damage. I walked into Pewter City and went to the Pokemon Center. After healing up, I steped outside and Blue walked over with a big smile.
Hello Red, he said, here to challange Brock at the gym?
Yes I am, did you, I asked
Blue pulled out a small rock like object out of his pocket.
I did and I won, this is the Boulder Badge, he said proudly.
Good luck Red, your gonna need it, smell ya later! He walked off smiling.
After I found the gym I went to walk in when Leaf walked out holding the same badge Blue had.
Hello Red, look at what I just won, she said with the badge held high, I will be in the museum for a while, so after you win come by I want to hear all about it.
Ok I will, I said.
Good luck, Bye. She ran away.
I stood in front of the gym, took a deep breath, and walked in.
