A/N: Chapter 2 of 3.

"Eh? Trainer, you're back already? I thought you were going to train more." Brown eyes stared at me, as if they would snare the answer to the question into a net.

"You'll be my training." I responded, noticing something odd. Every other Bug Catcher in this gym had green eyes…

"Okay then!" He beamed.

"Hey Parii, what cha' say to a battle?"

"Arauri!" It jumped happily, its mushrooms head-butting each other from the action.

"All right, trainer, we'll take you on!"

The battle started with "Parii" shouting its cry, as Solar stretched his head-leaf in anticipation.

"A chikorita? Why bring a Grass type against a Bug/Grass type?"

"Oh, what a genius move it is, to give away the type of your Pokemon."

He clamped his hands onto his mouth, obviously wishing he hadn't said that.

Solar readied a Poison Powder with ease as the Paras tried to use Leech Life on Solar. Solar dodged, using the Poison Powder on the Paras. The powder hit, and the Paras was poisoned.

"Parii! Please use Stun Spore!"

If there is a time to curse, it's now.

"Solar! Tackle!"

But it was too late, as the spore seeped into Solar's skin, halting his movements to a dreadful stop.

"Erhu!"

"Solar, please try to use Growl!"

"Er…ERHU!"

"Arauri?!"

"Parii, use Leech Life!"

Solar cried out in pain as its energy was sucked away.

Solar can't hold up for much longer. Nocoronu is too powerful right now, Drako too; Piko isn't here, and Rata won't do much. Then...

"Solar!" I shouted with a swipe of my hand, "Get back! Pidmaru's taking over!"

"Erhu…" Dejectedness. Relief. I'm sorry, buddy, but you're too weak right now...

"E-oo!"

A/N: 2nd chapter done. 3rd will be coming soon, but probably not for a while. I want you guys to think about that bug catcher…

2nd A/N: Had to stop it last night, and I had been wanting to get this out on Valentine's day (My love letter to you guys). As said in last chapter, this bug catcher is very important. Please think about him. Tell me your theories! 380 words long.
