Theme Song
This is it, the final quest (Gray and Unicus look out at Unova from their boat and gasp)
Your goal's to be the very best (Bellator hops off a cliff, spins, and hurls his scalchop at the screen)
New and old will come together (Durus, Fortis, and Ferus stand by Unicus, Bellator, and Furcifer)
These memories will last forever (Cheren and Bianca stand behind their starters and square off with Gray)
Don't slow down, keep trucking ahead (Unicus, Bellator, and Furcifer battle Pansage, Pansear, and Panpour)
Those dreams of yours are almost dead (A picture of the Unova Elite 4 begins to burn)
Even though that may be true (Alain and Charizard appear while two Pokemon transform behind them)
Think of the things that you've been through... (Unicus, Bellator, and Furcifer sit with Gray and look up at the stars)
Pokemon!
What's going on, everyone? Last chapter, Gray and White met Alder after (in chapter 8) they battled Cheren, and he destroyed them. However, his goal was to teach them about how to work together, and they passed that part of the test. He then brought them to the Striaton City Gym, and things will pick up where they left off. Also, I changed one of the titles for the Nacrene Arc (18), so keep an eye out for any other changes. Now let's get going!
MysticBeatz21: A few drafts ago, it was actually spot-on, minus Camerupt because of type redundancies. For the team I decided on, all of them were wrong XD Scizor's really cool and all, but it'd have to be strong and I didn't want Gray having three beasts. Two's fine, three's pushing it. WhitexHugh is a good guess, and I can't wait to introduce Flare! Unova hype!
JustinThePokemonMaster: Well, I've also finished writing five other chapters, so I'm on a tear, lol. White will eventually become REALLY strong, like, competing with Gray strong. But that's a loooooong way from now, and you'll just have to settle for her progressing one chappie at a time :3
Blaze Falcon: Oh, I was unintentionally misleading with that, my bad. He's just tired of people focusing on the past (honest, no trolls). That joke though (White and Black were supposed to be the original rivals, lmao). I haven't decided on the Unova champ yet, to be perfectly honest, and I like the predictions, especially with chapter 11. Most of them were very close, if not right (13 being the only one that's kind of off), so nice job! You won yourself one free ticket on the hype train! (PM me if you actually want to)
dragonplayer18: Thanks! White's goals are still being worked out, (I can go several ways with her regardless of what she ends up doing) but she'll be training a lot with Gray a lot as a means of making up for her lack of a goal, which will be revealed at a later time. And Cheren's going to be a jerk to Hugh for various reasons, competing for White being one of them
Defender31415: Haha, yeah they did. The only way I see that battle being relatively close would be if Gray had Fortis or MAYBE Ferus, but that obviously wasn't the case. They'll be working together quite a bit throughout the story, primarily in the middle when White decides what she wants to do, so expect more of that
Eddy (guest): In my opinion, his Hoenn team was the strongest with Sceptile, Zangoose, Swampert, and Aggron. Sinnoh's a close second. His weakest is easily Johto. Gray's Pokemon (again, just my opinion) in terms of weakest to strongest are Agrestis, Pertinax, Fidens, Magna, Acer, Comis, Leviculus, Durus, Decorus, Placidus, Ferus, and Fortis. What're your thoughts?
Gray's Team
Unicus, (f), level 9, Crush Claw, Defense Curl, Poison Sting, Rollout, Rapid Spin* - (Sandshrew)
Bellator, (m), level 11, Tackle, Tail Whip, Water Gun, Razor Shell, Water Sport* - (Oshawott)
Furcifer, (f), level 10, Taunt, Quick Attack, Icy Wind, Feint Attack - (Sneasel)
Gray and White yawned as they strolled up to the Striaton Gym while Unicus rolled around energetically. Furcifer and Snivy, however, weren't even close to being as energetic, and looked like they were about to fall asleep, while Bellator looked like his usual self: disinterested.
"Today's the day," Gray started, smiling as she looked up at the top of the building, smiling as Unicus leaped up and landed on her shoulder, prompting Furcifer to jump onto her other shoulder. "Let's go get our first badge, guys!"
"YEAH!" Unicus and Furcifer shrieked as they pumped their arms in the air.
White, meanwhile, shook her head at the energy of Gray and her Pokemon, and Bellator did the same. Snivy was too tired to even care, though, as she yawned and closed her eyes while resting on White's head.
"I can feel the energy radiating from all the way over here! That's a sign of good things!" a familiar, masculine voice boomed from afar, drawing the attention of Gray and White. "It's wonderful to see both of you again. I would ask if you're ready, Gray, but I think I know the answer," Alder said, chuckling as he did so.
The eighteen year old nodded with a determined look in her eyes, drawing another hearty laugh from the former champion, who motioned for her and White to follow him inside. As they did, the trio of humans looked around and saw that the interior of the building was a restaurant, which perplexed Gray and her Pokemon.
"Uh, White, I thought you said this was a Gym," Gray whispered, causing the younger girl to blush in embarrassment before she began looking through her brother's notes. "Are you sure your brother actually traveled through Unova?"
The sixteen year old shot Gray a nasty look, causing her to sweat drop, but the standoffish attitude was dimmed when Alder put a hand up, drawing the attention of both girls.
"Relax, this Gym's also a five star restaurant. If you just go to the back, which we will, you'll find the battlefield. I'll show you," Alder informed the younger trainers, who nodded like idiots before following him to the back of the restaurant, which was packed with people wearing fancy clothes. As they made their way past several tables, a waiter with blue hair noticed them and followed, stopping the trio once they neared a counter.
"I'm sorry, can I help you with something, Alder?"
"Ah, Cress! This young lady here would like to order a battle," Alder replied, slamming his right hand down on Gray's shoulder, making the blue haired waiter narrow his eyes as he looked over the girl and her three Pokemon.
"I see. Please forgive me, ma'am," Cress said to Gray, bowing apologetically. "My name is Cress, and I'm one of the Gym Leaders," the young man continued as he extended a hand, which Gray shook.
"One of?" the brunette inquired, drawing a nod from White and Alder. "Huh, that's cool."
"That's right, there are three Gym Leaders," the blue haired man stated as he led Gray, White, and Alder to the battlefield, which was much nicer than most other Gym battlefields Gray had seen, the exception being Clair's back in Blackthorn City.
As soon as the foursome reached the battlefield, which was covered with rocks, two other men dressed in fancy attire, similar to Cress, appeared at the other end with eager smiles. Cress then made his way across the rocky terrain and stood with the two other men and smiled at Gray.
"Guys, this is our challenger, Gray Plain, I believe," Cress stated before confirming that he had gotten the girl's name right by checking the league website. "Welcome, Gray, to the Striaton City Gym! As you know, my name is Cress, and you'll need to rely on all of your Pokemon today."
"You're going to have to overcome adversity if you want to win this badge. I'm Chili," the redheaded man standing next to Cress informed his challenger with a bright smile.
"Optimal choices must be made in order to claim victory. Cilan's the name," the green haired Gym Leader announced, bowing alongside his brothers. "Our Gym doesn't work like any others across the world. We like to pride ourselves on that."
"How so?" Gray asked while the triplets stood in the same trainer box, each holding a Pokeball.
The young men turned to the referee, who nodded and turned to look Gray in the eyes before explaining the rules.
"This will be a best of three battle between the challenger, Gray Plain of Saffron City, and the Gym Leaders, Cilan, Chili, and Cress, where the Gym Leaders will be given type advantages in all matches! The battle will be over when either side has won twice. In the event of a tie, the Gym Leaders are declared victorious!" the referee explained while looking between Gray and the triplets, all of whom nodded while White shook her head in disgust.
"What's wrong, White?" Snivy inquired.
"These rules put the Gym Leaders at such a big advantage, and it's not fair! There's no way Gray can win if she doesn't have any type advantages!" the brunette whispered angrily before turning her attention back to Gray, Unicus, and Bellator.
Alder shook his head at White's opinion, causing the girl and her starter to turn to the former champion in confusion before he spoke up.
"Young lady, you'll learn sooner or later that type advantages mean little to nothing in battles. While they do determine the winner of a battle between two inexperienced trainers, all of that is thrown out the window when you're experienced like your friend. She's been around the block, so she knows how to overcome such things. Even if she were to lose here, the goal of these Gym Leaders is to teach trainers what I just told you."
Shocked by the wise answer, White turned back to the battlefield before her eyes went wide and she shifted her gaze back to Alder.
"Hey, how do you know Gray's been training for a while?"
The red haired man laughed at White's question before placing a hand on her shoulder as Gray withdrew Furcifer and Bellator.
"Let's just say I've heard about her from a few friends. Plus, it wasn't hard to tell given how different her composure and tactics were from yours when we battled yesterday morning."
"Furcifer, come on out!" Gray shouted while throwing her first Pokeball onto the battlefield, silencing Alder and White.
Bursting out of her Pokeball, Furcifer acrobatically spun through the air and landed on one of the rocks planted on Gray's half of the battlefield. Swinging her arms around and slashing at the air in front of her, the Sneasel smirked at her opponents and folded her arms over her chest confidently while waiting for one of the three Gym Leaders to step forward and battle her.
"If you have an ice type, then I'm your opponent for this battle," Chili announced as he stepped into the trainer box with a Pokeball in hand. "Pansear, I choose you!" he shouted while hurling the spherical device.
Once it opened, a red monkey materialized from the light and stared at Furcifer with its droopy eyes. The ice type glared at her opponent and shook her head, embarrassed by the fact that she had to battle such a goofy Pokemon.
"You can do it, Furcifer!" White and Snivy cheered in unison while the referee rose his arms and looked at both sides.
"This battle will be between Furcifer and Pansear! Begin!"
"Pansear, use Incinerate!" Chili shouted, opting to use his strongest move first.
Whipping its neck forwards, Pansear shot a wave of flames towards Furcifer, who spun out of the way and landed on the ground next to the rock she had just been standing on. Pansear didn't relent, however, and continued using Incinerate attack after Incinerate attack.
"Dodge and counter with Quick Attack, Furcifer!" Gray countered, realizing the only way she could put an end to the onslaught was by going on the offensive.
Nodding slightly, Furcifer dropped to the ground and dodged yet another Incinerate before shooting across the battlefield as a white streak of light trailed her body. Before Chili could react, Furcifer lowered her shoulder and checked Pansear, sending the fire monkey skidding across the rocky battlefield.
"Wow, that was really fast. But we're not gonna let that keep us from winning. Charge and use Fury Swipes!" the redheaded Gym Leader commanded.
As Pansear rose to his feet, he grinned and threw his arms out to his sides. Suddenly, three claws shot out of his hands and were glowing white with energy before he charged towards Furcifer, who wanted to match her opponent slash for slash. Gray had a different mindset, however, and she stomped before issuing a counterattack.
"Furcifer, use Feint Attack!" she yelled.
Furcifer nodded and disappeared in the blink of an eye, catching Chili and Pansear by surprise. While they looked around for the ice type, Gray snapped her fingers and Furcifer reappeared right in front of her foe before punching him in the face, knocking Pansear to the ground while Chili looked on in fear.
"Paralyze Furcifer with Lick!"
Sticking his tongue out, Pansear swung his neck around. Somehow his tongue grew exponentially to the point where it looked like it could stretch across the world, grossing out White and Snivy while Gray tried to not pay any attention to the disgusting attack. Instead, she stuck her hand out and kept herself from seeing Pansear before issuing a command.
"Grab his tongue, Furcifer!"
Smirking, Furcifer snatched Pansear's tongue out of the air and snickered, unnerving both Chili and his Pokemon while Cilan and Cress were too shocked to utter a word.
"What is she doing!?" Chili screamed worriedly, looking at his brothers, who were lost.
"Now put Pansear's tongue against the ground and use Icy Wind!" Gray roared.
Furcifer did as she was told and released a freezing blast of wind from her mouth that stuck Pansear's tongue to the ground. Everyone looked at Gray in confusion except Alder, who laughed the cunning move before slamming his feet on the ground.
"That's incredible! I would've never thought of that!"
"Break free, Pansear!" Chili shouted desperately to his Pokemon, who attempted to pull his frozen tongue off the ground, but was unable to do so. "How? How did she do that?"
"Finish this up with Quick Attack!" Gray commanded, throwing her right hand forwards.
Speeding across the battlefield, Furcifer grunted loudly as a streak of white light trailed her body. She then slammed into Pansear, causing him to fly into the air and his tongue to rip off the ground, making the fire type scream in pain. Once he hit the ground, Pansear let out a weak cry before his eyes closed, prompting the referee to throw his arms in the air.
"Pansear is unable to continue! Gray wins the first match!"
"What'd you say about not being able to win?" Snivy remarked sarcastically, causing White to sweat drop in embarrassment before she recovered and eyed her friend, who hugged Furcifer while Unicus glared at the ice type.
"Furcifer was incredible! She made it look like Pansear didn't have a chance!" White exclaimed as she stared at Snivy, who nodded in agreement while Alder remained quiet, staring at Gray in awe.
"Awesome job, Furcifer!" Gray commended as she rubbed the ice type's head thankfully.
"Thanks. Those guys didn't know what hit 'em!" Furcifer exclaimed, punching her arms in the air. "There's no way they're going to beat us," she continued before sitting down next to her trainer, who paid no attention to the comment, instead opting to squat and place her hand on Unicus' head.
"Are you ready to go, Unicus?" Gray quizzed with a smile.
"Let's do it!" Unicus roared in response before jumping out of the trainer box and onto the battlefield, where she began swiping at the ground.
"I see, so it's a ground type. I shall be your opponent," Cress stated, sauntering forwards while his brothers stepped back. "Panpour, reveal yourself!" the blue haired trainer shouted as he opened his Pokeball, revealing a monkey that looked almost exactly like Pansear, except with a blue head and blue, geyser-like hair on top of its head.
"This battle will be between Unicus and Panpour! Begin!"
"Unicus, Rollout!" Gray barked while throwing her right fist forwards.
Doing just as she was told, Unicus curled herself into a ball and began rolling along the rocky battlefield, crashing through anything in her way. As she did so, Cilan and Chili exchanged impressed glances and nodded before turning their attention back to the battlefield, where Panpour began clapping like an idiot.
"Send Unicus flying back with Scald, Panpour!" Cress countered.
Panpour reared his head back and shot a powerful blast of boiling water at the ground type, who was clobbered as a result. After uncurling due to the force of the super effective attack, Unicus was sent flying into an enormous rock to Gray's left. After hitting the rock, Unicus slumped to the ground and whimpered in pain, drawing a concerned look from both Gray and Furcifer.
"Hang in there, Unicus! Retaliate with Poison Sting!" the eighteen year old commanded, prompting Unicus to rise to her feet.
Fighting through the pain, Unicus began running around while shooting waves of purple needles from her mouth, but Panpour managed to dodge all of them. Angered by her opponent's elusiveness, Unicus continued firing Poison Sting attacks from all different angles, prompting Cress to snap his fingers and smile.
"Block them all with Fury Swipes!" the calm trainer ordered tactically, catching Gray and her starter by surprise.
Panpour's claws extended dramatically while glowing white, and he swung at the Poison Sting attack Unicus had sent his way. After deflecting all of them, Panpour laughed like a buffoon and began clapping once again, enraging his opponent and her trainer.
"Try blocking this! Unicus, use Crush Claw!" Gray screamed.
Unicus, who had a running start, nodded in response to her trainer's command and wound both of her arms back. All of a sudden, her claws extended and began glowing cobalt, and she jumped forwards while spinning, mimicking Bellator's movements. Alder was the only one to realize that, though, and he smiled while laughing under his breath, drawing White's attention.
"There's no need to block when we can dodge. Spin out of the way!"
Still laughing, Panpour began twirling around like a ballerina and evaded each of Unicus' attempted slashes, angering her even more. Feeding off her Pokemon's anger, Gray stomped on the ground and threw her right hand forwards.
"Not on our watch! Pursue him and keep using Crush Claw, Unicus!"
Refusing to relent in her assault, Unicus continued swinging at Panpour. With each miss, she grew more frustrated and, in turn, swung even more violently. As Panpour spun around blindly, he eventually tripped over a rock and face planted, presenting Unicus with the perfect opportunity to strike. Not holding anything back, Unicus slashed her opponent across the face as harshly as she could, causing the water monkey to screech in pain while rolling around on the ground, breaking Cress' composure. Running back to her trainer's side, Unicus flashed Gray a thumbs up before turning to glare at Panpour, who had risen to his feet with an evil look on his face.
"Let's end this with Scald!"
"Land another Crush Claw!"
The combatting Pokemon obeyed their commands and began performing their respective attacks, with Panpour rearing back while Unicus bolted across the battlefield. Just as Panpour shot another stream of boiling water from his mouth, Unicus slashed him across the chest. The attacks landed at the same time and sent their targets flying, making everyone in the room gasp as both Pokemon hit the ground at the same time with their eyes closed.
"Both sides are unable to continue! The second match is a draw!" the referee announced as Gray ran to Unicus' side.
"Thank you so much, Unicus," Gray said to her starter as she carried her off the battlefield and laid her down against the wall behind the trainer box. "You just stay right there and watch us finish this up, okay?"
Unicus nodded, too disappointed in herself to say anything. Furcifer slowly walked over and placed a hand on the ground type's shoulder, nodding at her, though that didn't help soften the blow of the loss.
"Oh man, now Gray has to win this if she wants to get her first badge," White muttered while shaking her head. "She can't lose! Come on, Gray!"
"Bellator, I choose you!" Gray shouted.
Once the Pokeball opened and revealed the tiny otter, Furcifer walked away from Unicus and eyed Bellator intently. Alder did the same and smiled at the water type, who simply crossed his arms over his chest and glared at the triplets, shaking their confidence.
"Relax. Bellator has this in the bag," Snivy reassured her trainer. "If there's anything I've learned living with Bellator, it's that he always comes up big," the grass type continued, remembering all of the times Bellator battled and defeated the other starting Pokemon at Professor Juniper's.
"You don't even have to know him to be confident in his abilities," Alder stated, turning to White and her starter. "Sure, I saw Gray's battle against that boy and Bellator kicked that Tepig's behind all over the place, but even if I didn't see it, it's not hard to believe in him," the older man continued.
"It's all up to you, Bellator. Are you ready?"
Bellator didn't answer Gray. Instead, he turned his back to the girl and stepped onto the battlefield with an emotionless expression, causing the young woman to sweat drop along with Unicus and Furcifer. Cilan then stepped forwards and enlarged the Pokeball in his hand.
"For your water type, I have prepared a grass delicacy!" the weird man announced. "Pansage take the battlefield!"
Materializing from the Pokeball Cilan had thrown was a green monkey that looked very similar to Pansear and Panpour, except there seemed to be a green bush growing atop his head.
Bellator kept his blank expression even as his opponent appeared on the other half of the battlefield and motioned for him to charge, which he didn't. Instead, Bellator turned and glanced at Gray with an annoyed look, which made the girl laugh and nod before he turned back around and resumed glaring at Pansage.
"This battle will be between Bellator and Pansage! Begin!"
"Bellator, use Tail Whip!" Gray commanded, prompting Bellator to turn and wag his tail, causing a ring of green energy to spin around Pansage before disappearing. "Now charge and use Tackle!"
Nodding, Bellator took off like a rocket and lowered his head in preparation for impact. Shocked by the speed of the bipedal otter, Cilan and Pansage were unable to react to the Tackle attack, resulting in Pansage being launched into the wall behind the three Gym Leaders. Somehow, the monkey got up in a split second and jumped after Bellator, who was shocked by his opponent's ability to recover.
"Grab his legs with Vine Whip and smack Bellator against the ground!"
After slapping Bellator in order to disorient him, Pansage snickered as two vines shot out of his neck and wrapped themselves around Bellator's legs. Gray gasped in shock as she watched her Pokemon get thrown into the air before being slammed against the ground like a child would do to a toy. Surprisingly, Bellator twisted his way out of the grasp of the vines and glared at his opponent, prompting Gray to issue another command.
"Dish out a Razor Shell attack at full power!" the girl yelled.
Bellator didn't have to be told twice to attack, and he shot forwards while grabbing his scalchop with his right hand. As a trail of water transformed into the shape of a blade, the Oshawott spun around, as he always did when performing the attack, and slashed Pansage across the chest as harshly as he could. The grass type let out a cry of pain as a result of the wicked attack, and Cilan couldn't help but be impressed by Bellator's strength.
"Hurry and use Vine Whip, Pansage!" Cilan shouted after realizing Bellator was returning to Gray's side.
Pansage got off the ground at light speed for the second time and smacked Bellator across the back as hard as he could, sending the water type skidding along the ground face first, making Gray, Furcifer, and Unicus gasp while White covered her eyes. Snivy and Alder, meanwhile, looked at each other and rolled their eyes at the reactions.
"Bellator, are you okay?" Gray asked worriedly, watching her Pokemon struggle to his feet. Once he stood up, Bellator nodded in response and spun around before pointing his scalchop at Pansage, which he then brought up to his neck and pretended to slit his throat, scaring the grass type. "Okay, now use Water Gun!"
While Pansage was unnerved by the threatening motion, Bellator shot a devastating blast of high-pressured water from his mouth, which smacked into Pansage and sent him rolling along the rocky ground. Pansage's tumbling was finally stopped when he hit into the largest rock on Cilan's half of the battlefield, and the green haired Gym Leader looked on in concern before letting out a sigh of relief once Pansage got back up.
"Bullet Seed, Pansage!"
The green monkey obeyed his command and sent waves of solar bullets at Bellator, who acted on instinct by grabbing his scalchop and sticking it out, effortlessly deflecting every bullet headed his way. As soon as Pansage's Bullet Seed attack ceased, Bellator turned to Gray and tapped his foot against the ground while nodding, making the brunette smirk.
"What's she up to?" Alder asked aloud, not expecting an answer.
"I don't know, but it has to be something cool," White muttered, eagerly awaiting Gray's next move.
"Time to wrap this up! Bellator, use Water Gun on the ground to shoot yourself into the air!"
Bellator bent over and released the strongest Water Gun he could muster up, propelling himself into the air as if he were a rocket. All three of the Gym Leader's gasped in shock while White, Snivy, and Alder cheered, recalling how Gray and Bellator had done the same thing when they battled Cheren the day before.
"Take him out of the air with Vine Whip!" Cilan commanded.
"Spin and use Razor Shell!"
Pansage fired two vines from his neck and attempted to grab Bellator, but the Oshawott spun out of the way of both as he grabbed his scalchop. Continuing his wild spinning, Bellator let out a ferocious roar before he slashed Pansage, knocking the grass type unconscious instantly. Running over to the downed monkey's side, the referee immediately threw his arms up when he saw Pansage's eyes were closed.
"Pansage is unable to continue! That means Gray, Furcifer, Unicus, and Bellator are the winners!"
"YEAH!" Gray screamed along with Unicus and Furcifer as they embraced. Bellator, meanwhile, waltzed over to the trainer box and nodded at the group, but soon found himself wrapped into the group hug despite his protests.
After the initial euphoria of their victory subsided, Gray and her Pokemon hurried over to the Gym Leaders with bright smiles, making the older men laugh as they each pulled out pieces of metal.
"You and your Pokemon truly fought as one today," Cress started, handing Gray a tiny piece of metal with a blue dot in the middle.
"You overcame adversity," Chili continued, handing Gray a tiny piece of metal with a reed dot in the middle.
"And because of that, you were victorious. Congratulations," Cilan commended, handing Gray another piece of metal that had a green dot on it. "If you put those together, that's the badge."
"Thank you. I know I couldn't have done it without these guys," Gray replied while smiling at her three Pokemon after she clipped the three pieces of metal together, creating one badge.
Both Unicus and Furcifer smiled at the praise from their trainer, but Bellator simply crossed his arms over his chest and looked away almost as if he weren't interested in being in the Gym any longer.
"We all wish you the best of luck on your journey, too. Make sure you train a lot before battling the Nacrene City Gym Leader, though. Her Pokemon are a lot stronger than ours and our strategy combined," Chili warned Gray, who nodded and bowed thankfully for the information.
With that, Gray, her Pokemon, White, Snivy, and Alder walked out of the Gym and through the restaurant before celebrating once they were outside.
"That was a great battle, Gray. I know this is sudden and all, but I really must get going. I need to show the students how you defied the odds and overcame type disadvantages."
Before Gray could say anything, Alder ran in the direction of his school, leaving her and White speechless. The two then turned to each other and shrugged, not knowing what to do.
"Want to head back to the Pokemon Center?"
"Sure. I have to tell my other Pokemon about the battle!"
Wow. All three of Gray's Pokemon won and Bellator was the one to earn Gray her first badge with his victory over Cilan's Pansage. Next chapter will focus on the return of a familiar face, who'll stick around for a while, and that's really it. Till then, peace out.
1) Who do you think was the most impressive of Gray's Pokemon?
2) Do you like the idea of Furcifer pulling pranks (freezing Pansear's tongue to the ground, for example) during battle?
Next Chapter: "Adding a Wild Side"
