Chapter Ten: The First Gym.

A/N: Alright, hope you enjoy this chapter about everyone vs the gym leader: Brock and trying to get the Boulder Badge.

Enjoy!

Ah, hotels, good places to rest, not so good places to wake up. We literally woke up to the sound off 'get up or we kick you out!' and 'you only paid for the night, now get up!' so we had to get a shower and get dressed quick, great...

When we finally got out, after the manager passing out from screaming, of course, I checked the Pokemon I will use.

"Right Envy, Inferno, come out! Vlam come out!" I shouted, the two red beams creating the Charmander and the Vulpix.

"Right, let's see..." I muttered, scanning Vlam with the Pokedex, the same stats as before shown. "Now Inferno..." I said, the Pokedex scanning her.

"Hmm, two levels off evolving, nice," I stated, returning the two Pokemon. "Maybe Zubat will give Inferno enough experience to evolve," I told Envy, scratching behind her ear.

"Yeah, maybe me as well!" she shouted.

"Probably not, it will take at least three gyms until you get close to evolving," I told her.

"Aww..." she stared down.

Before long we stood outside Brock's gym, two poke balls gripped firmly in my hand, ready to be thrown. We entered the gym, speak of the devil, Brock was right there, talking to a trainer who probably just fought.

"You did well, but let your guard down when I threw out my Zubat, let's see if you can beat me tomorrow," he told him, the man sulking away. I approached him, tapping him on the shoulder.

"Huh? Oh, a trainer, are you here to challenge me?" he asked.

"Yes, I wish to try and earn the Boulder Badge," I told him, making sure he heard me clearly.

"Well then, let me get my Pokemon up to full health and we can battle!" he shouted, clearly liking the idea of fighting.

Before long we were at other ends of the gym, Envy in her poke ball as a secret weapon. I let him throw out his first Pokemon. Geodude, Vlam should be able to out-smart this rock.

"Go, Vlam!" I shouted, the red beam creating a Vulpix.

"Geodude, use [Rock Throw]!" he shouted, the Geodude instantly chucking a rock at Vlam.

"Vlam, dodge then use [Flash Fire]!" I shouted, the flames quickly engulfing the Geodude.

Vlam Health: 100% Geodude Health: 60%

"Geodude, use [Smack Down]!" he shouted, hitting Vlam as hard as he could.

"Vlam, use [Flame Burst]!" I shouted, the flames launching off the Vulpix at the Geodude, skinning his arm.

Vlam Health: 50% Geodude Health: 50%

"Geodude, use [Rock Blast]!" He shouted, the Geodude launching a massive rock at Vlam which she easily dodged.

"Vlam, use [Fire Spin]!" I shouted, the fire spinning around the Geodude, scorching his insides.

Vlam Health: 50% Geodude Health: 35%

"Geodude, use [Rock Throw]!" he shouted, the rock hitting one of Vlam's hind legs.

"Vlam, use [Flame Burst]!" I shouted, Vlam quickly burning Geodude heavily.

Vlam Health: 25% Geodude Health: 10%

"Geodude, use [Self-Destruct]!" He shouted, eliminating Vlam and himself.

An announcer boomed "Brock's Geodude has fainted, Jax's Vulpix has fainted!"

"Go, Zubat!" Brock shouted, the red beam creating the Zubat.

"Go, Inferno!" I shouted, the red beam creating the Charmander.

"Zubat, use [Air Cutter]!" The Zubat instantly went to cut Inferno.

"Inferno, counter with [Dragon Rage]!" I shouted, the Zubat instantly failing its attack and being dealt a massive blow.

Inferno: 100%, Zubat: 60%

"Zubat, use [Poison Fang]!"

"Inferno, use [Fire Fang]!" I shouted the two fangs hitting each other, the Zubat taking the hit and Inferno being poisoned.

Inferno: 50%, Zubat: 50%

"Zubat, use [Wing Attack]!"

"Inferno us-" I was cut off as Inferno fell, not able to get up and taking the hit.

Inferno: 30%, Zubat: 50%

"Inferno, get up, you have to win, you have to prove them you can do it, INFERNO!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, needing her to get up.

But then, a white light engulfed her, what's happening?

"She's evolving!"Brock shouted, wait she got to level sixteen?

"Wait...what?" I said before the white light vanished, a Charmeleon replacing it, standing tall and proud.

"Let's go, Jax," She said, ready to attack.

Inferno: 60%, Zubat: 50%

"Let's do this Inferno!" I shouted her attack.

And end of this chapter, seems Jax almost lost his Charmander to a Zubat but now, she is a Charmeleon, will this help against Zubat? Who knows, check out next time to see the answers!

Ciao.
