Previously: "After completing all moves and checking out the pokemon everyone went to bed to rest as for tomorrow ash and Gary challenge the gym."

Chapter 9

Today Ash and Gary are going to challenge the cerulean gym for their second badge, but before they do that they are sorting out their teams on which pokemon are best to use for the gym.

Ash has decided to take the following pokemon with him, Thor, Lucario, Kirlia, Tiamat (Gyarados), Mankey, Raticate, Cleffa, Sandslash, Parasect and Eevee.

Gary decided to take his Growlithe, Wartortle, Pikachu, Eevee, Spearow, Butterfree, Mankey and Paras.

After having breakfast and getting ready both boys with Misty and Brock headed towards the Pokemon Gym for the chance of getting their second badge. As Gary went first in the pewter gym Ash is going first in Cerulean Gym. They arrive at the gym and notice that there is a massive crowd, confused they follow where everyone is and notice that there is a show going on, they all sat down and watched as the three sisters preformed, whilst the show was going on, Ash and Gary was talking wondering why the sisters were performing instead of doing what they were supposed to be doing as in running a gym not an entertainment centre.

After the show was over Ash and Gary left to find the three girls to ask for a gym battle, when they found them the girls automatically thought that they were fans but before they could start saying anything the boys went we're actually here for a gym battle, which made all three girls look up, as Lily looked at Ash she began to blush some, they all then stated the rules which will be a 3vs3 match, they could either face each girl or one girl, Ash decided he wanted to face each girl and Gary decided he will do that as well, they then walked to the arena area.

Ash and Lily got onto their platforms and faced one another the ref then began he speech, "this is a gym battle between Lily Waterflower and Ash Ketchum of Pallet Town, you may use one pokemon each, if both are ready begin" Ash sent out his Parasect and Lily sent out a Seaking, Ash ordered Parasect to use sunny day, followed by solar beam, whilst lily quickly told Seaking to dive into the water so the attack will miss, but as she said this ash was one step ahead of her and was saying to Parasect in her thoughts "aim you're solar beam to hit the water to bring seaking out, once you've got him into your sight use seed bomb followed by solar beam again" Parasect did just that, and Seaking fainted from the multiple affective moves used on him, so Lily was taken out, she was sadden but Ash stated that she was a real good battler to think of trying to hide the Seaking in the water if he was just an ordinary rookie trainer, he wouldn't of known what to do with that tactic :) she cheered up then and congratulated him on winning the first battle, Violet was next, she stated to Ash that she hoped he was ready for a harder battle, and sent out a Dewgong, Ash's answer was to sent out his Mankey, he quickly told Mankey to get close to dewgong and use thunder punch followed by Iron Tail, Violet told Dewgong to use Water gun followed by Ice beam, the ice beam and water gun did not do much damage to Mankey so ash told him to use low sweep followed by focus punch, which finally fainted Dewgong, Ash thanked her for a good battle and Violet congratulated him on winning against her, finally Daisy was up next, Daisy had sent out a Gyarados to battle and Ash sent out one of his most trusted partners Thor (Pikachu), He told Thor to use thunder bolt, Daisy had Gyarados use Iron tail onto the platform to ground the attack, so it wouldn't do damage, he then told Pikachu to use quick attack to get upon top of Gyarados's head and to use thunder wave followed by electro ball, causing Gyarados to become paralyzed and doing significant damage as well to the pokemon, Daisy asked Gyarados if he was still able to move, which he could but only just, she then ordered him to use dragon breath chained with aqua tail, Ash told Pikachu to dodge, then to use a full power Thunder Bolt, which finally fainted Gyarados, Ash once again thanked Daisy for the battle, saying she was a good battler, Daisy also congratulated Ash on winning the Gym battle and then Handed him the Cascade Badge and a TM for water pulse, stating that this attack can sometimes cause confusion, Gary was then going next, the girls still had pokemon left so decided to do the gym battle first then head over to the pokemon centre to heal up all their pokemon,

Lily and Gary stood opposite each other and the ref has asked if they were ready, they stated they were and Lily sent out a Seel, Gary sent out his Mankey, Lily quickly told seel to use ice beam and follow by slam, Mankey was hit by both attacks as he couldn't dodge quick enough, Gary told Mankey to use focus punch followed by low sweep and then Electric Punch, Seel was able to do the Electric Punch but the other two attacks hit and did significant damage to her, Lily told seel to use aqua ring on herself to heal some of the damage done but Gary told Mankey to use low sweep once more before Seel could heal herself and fainted, Gary then thanked Lily for the battle and gave her praise, Lily congratulated Gary winning against her, now it was Violet's turn to battle against Gary, Gary recalled Mankey and sent out his Wartortle and Violet sent out a Horsea, Violet told Horsea to attack Wartortle with water gun at rapid pace, Gary told Wartortle to go into his shell and then use rapid spin, whilst using water gun, Horsea was hit by both attacks but did not do much damage, Gary then told Wartortle to use Iron Tail whilst using Aqua Jet, the attacks hit and did slightly more damage but still not enough to faint Horsea, Violet told Horsea to use twister followed by water pulse, the attacks hit Wartortle and did some damage but was still standing, Gary then told Wartortle to use Aqua jet and Ice punch at the same time, the attacks hit and Horsea finally fainted, Violet and Gary both thanked one another for a good battle and now it was Gary's turn to face against Daisy, Daisy had sent out a vaporeon, and Gary sent out his Pikachu, Daisy told Vaporeon to just go into the water and use water pulse straight away, Gary told Pikachu to dodge and then to use thunder shock on the water the attack did damage but vaporeon was able to shake it off, Gary told Pikachu to run around as fast as it can using agility and to use double team and then to fire Electro Ball at vaporeon, Daisy told Vaporeon to go back under the water so the attacked missed, Gary then told Pikachu to jump into the pool and use its stronger thunder bolt attack, by doing this vaporeon took alot of damage and finally fainted, thus winning the gym battle, Daisy congratulated Gary on winning and gave him the badge and the same TM to him as she gave Ash, she was a little disappointed that she had lost but at the same time all three sisters were fired up to become even better, Lily had also walked up to Ash and was blushing alot, looking like she wanted to say something to him, Ash asked if Lily was alright, she replied she was just that she hopes that they can keep in touch and get to know one another, this set Ash blushing, so he agreed and both swapped numbers to keep in touch, they then all walked to the pokemon centre to heal their pokemon up, after healing their pokemon up the girls said bye to the boys, and wished them the best of luck on the rest of the journey they also asked if they could have a rematch sometime in the future, which the boys were more than happy to oblige with.

Ash and Gary let out their pokemon to congratulate them on doing such a good job in battling that they will now have a week off, til it will be back to training again, the boys then went back into the pokemon centre to meet up with Brock and Misty, they told them both they had won the badge from Misty's sisters and that they are going to try and improve even more so in the future they can have a rematch, which made Misty really happy and proud of her sisters finally finding that something that would make them enjoy battling like she does, Brock congratulated the boys on gaining their second badge and had asked where were they thinking of going next, Ash replied saying they were going to stay here in cerulean for another week or so, to rest up and let their pokemon have a break before going, but they are also interested in going to route 24 – 25 as well as I heard there is some trainers there challenging people plus some new pokemon we can both capture.

Ash and Gary rested for two days, and decided to switch out some of the pokemon, Ash decided to send back, Mankey, Raticate, Cleffa, Sandslash and Parasect to get Ekans and Geodude and Pidgeotto , and Gary decided to send back Butterfree, Mankey and Paras but decided against sending some to him as he is planning on getting some new pokemon and wants to bond with them first and set up their training routines before getting his team together.

The boys quickly leave for route 24 – 25 and notice there is a few people on the bridge, a lady comes up to them and states that it is the golden nugget bridge challenge, Ash asks what it entails and she tells them that basically all they have to do is beat each trainer on the bridge which is 6 trainers in total and if they win, they will get a nugget which is worth 5000 yen, so if both trainers win they both will receive a nugget each, so both Ash and Gary decided they will do this, Gary went up first, and he steam rolled the people and received his nugget and Ash then went up and finished just as quick as Gary did and got his nugget, the boys then decided they were going to go explore to see if they can capture any new pokemon but before they did so, Ash looked upon his pokédex to see what pokemon are available in the area to catch, Via fishing "Psyduck, Krabby, Goldeen and Seaking" via walking route 24 "Bellsprout, Caterpie, Metapod, Venonat, Abra, Weedle, Kakuna, Pidgey, Pidgeotto and Oddish" Ash and Gary decided they would try and capture a Psyduck, Krabby and a Goldeen via fishing, then a Bellsprout, Venonat, Abra and an Oddish each, Ash decided he would catch two Oddishs though so off both boys went to try and capture the pokemon they wanted. Gary went to the lake first to fish whilst Ash walked around to see if he can capture some pokemon that way first before fishing, Gary had quickly landed a Goldeen as soon as he started to fish and captured it very easily, he then had to wait several minutes and he got another bite and this time it was a Krabby, but this size of this Krabby was alot bigger than normal, he quickly battled it, and after a 5 minute battle he captured the Krabby, and finally after another 5 minutes waiting Psyduck was caught as well.

On the grass area with Ash whilst Gary was busy fishing and capturing pokemon, Ash had quickly found an Abra, he threw a Fast ball at it quickly as he knows Abras are known to teleport out of battles, and was able to capture the Abra very quickly, a couple of more minutes in he found a pair of Oddish together, he quickly battled them and captured them, after a few more minutes of wandering around he found a Bellsprout and a Venonat near one another, not questioning it, sent out his pokemon to do battle and quickly captured them as well, now he was going to go back to meet up with Gary.

Gary and Ash met up and both showed their new pokemon Ash had also given Gary a fast ball to him to help with the Abra Gary thanked Ash then went to the grass and Ash went to fish, Ash just as quickly before captured a Goldeen, Krabby and a Psyduck, whilst Gary had captured a Bellsprout, Oddish, Abra, and a Venonat.

After both boys were done, they went back to the pokemon centre to rest up as it was nearing night fall now, they fed their pokemon and bonded a little bit with the new ones, and then went to bed ready to start anew tomorrow.
