REVIEW REPLIES
Sakura Uchiha Hyuuga no Sabaku: Yeah, Cyndaquil is coming to her senses. But she only goes back to her for food and to get stronger. Of course, she will evolve into a Quilava, so that she won't be upstaged by her friends.
Arysd: I like the backstory too. And the person who'll get their Pokémon stolen, whether you like him or not, you'll feel sorry for him.
Katy Bella: Is it really like a Pokémon episode? I think mine are slightly better than the show. Yeah, I know the Contestshipping is a little sparse right now, but I don't want to rush things.
aaa: When you spend years with a Pokémon, you start to understand their language.
MAY'S POKÉMON
Blaziken (Blaze Kick, Sky Uppercut, Flamethrower, and Earthquake)
Munchlax (Tackle, Solarbeam, Focus Punch, Metronome)
Cyndaquil (Ember, Smokescreen, Tackle, Quick Attack)

LAST TIME…
We check up on Cyndaquil and her not-so-successful life in the wild. Her shelter falls to pieces and she gets a cold from the rain. We learn about her old trainer and how she was abandoned. She meets Totodile and Chikorita when they were also abandoned by their trainers.
Back in today, she meets up with her former best friends, Chikorita and Totodile…or Bayleef and Croconaw as they are now. She becomes jealous at their newfound strength and tries to battle them. But hunger and dehydration overcomes and she faints easily.
When she wakes up, she sees her former team having fun and laughing. She decides to call it truce and go back to May…though, she faints at her feet.

LOCATION: Blackthorn City Pokémon Center
"How's Cyndaquil doing here?"
"She hasn't been doing well. She's been dehydrated, starved, beaten, feverish…she's an absolute mess."
"Oh no. Well, will she be okay?"
"She'll survive, but it will take time. If we're lucky, she'll be on her feet in a least a few weeks."
"I hope so. Is it alright if I'm in that room with her?"
"Sure. I think it will do it some good."
That was all that Cyndaquil heard. She was unconscious, seeing nothing but blackness and her head throbbing. She then heard the door opening. Footsteps followed afterward. "Wow, she doesn't look so good."
"She'll be okay."
"Do I need to mention the horrible treatment of Pokémon caused by Coordinators again?"
"Do I need to have Bayleef Vine Whip you across the face?"
"No need to get so violent. But the evidence is there."
"Jahan, Drew, can you guys leave? I want to spend some time alone with Cyndaquil.
"Sure…okay."
"Don't do it! She'll slit her…AH!"
"Let's go, you idiot!"
The door slammed shut. Cyndaquil began opening her eyes. Her vision was blurry, after being unconscious for so long. Once her vision cleared up, she looked around and saw that she was in a small white room, lying on her stomach on a table. She didn't feel very good. IN fact, she was worse than before.
May appeared in her face. "Oh, you're awake now?" she asked. Cyndaquil, startled, jumped on its legs and tried to breathe fire, but it fell back on its stomach. "It's okay! It's okay!" May shouted. "It's just me. I'm not going to hurt you."
Cyndaquil remained on the floor, tired and weak. "Wow…you aren't feeling good are you?" asked May.
"Nah, bruises and scratches and a fever and hunger and dehydration are normal to a Pokémon," Cyndaquil thought.
"I wish I could feed you, but Nurse Joy said that I can't until later."
"A conspiracy against me?"
"Look Cyndaquil, even though you don't feel well, you still don't have to be a part of my team if you don't want to."
Cyndaquil turned its head away for a moment. "May, I hate being a wild Pokémon, at least when I'm by myself. It was easy with Chikorita and Totodile, but they gone and joined with their trainers," replied Cyndaquil.
"Do you still hate being a Trainer's Pokémon?" May asked.
"I don't know if I do. I haven't been a trainer's Pokémon ever since my last trainer abandoned me," she confessed.
May was surprised. "My last trainer? You had another trainer before me?" May asked.
"It's a long story," Cyndaquil continued. "But I had another trainer before you…so did Chikorita and Totodile."
"Really?" May asked. She leaned in closer. "Tell me about your last trainer."
(A/N: Since you guys already know about Cyndaquil's last trainer, we're going to go to some more Jahan/Harley fun).

Meanwhile, Harley emerged from the dressing room and walked in the Pokémon Center lobby. He had changed into his pajamas, which were (of course) styled after his favorite Pokémon Cacturne. They were similar to his day clothes, except the hat was much longer and the pants were much baggier.
Anyway, Harley walked towards his bags, which were in the lobby. "Well, I'm about ready to hit the sack," he muttered to himself. He turned around the corner…and saw his things scrambled across the floor. "What in the world?!? Somebody's been going through my belongings!" Harley shouted, angrily.
"Wow, I come off as such a jerk in this book of yours," said a voice. Harley turned his head and saw Jahan sitting on a comfortable couch reading one of his books. "You! You are the one who did this!" Harley shouted, pointing to his bag.
"Yeah, just curious as to what you carry around with you," Jahan replied. "Apparently, I've found your little hit-list. I'm one of your victims. Says here that I'm 'an inconsiderate punk with no rights for Pokémon Coordinators' and a 'jerk' and 'number one most wanted'. Wow, I didn't think you loved me that much."
"Don't falter yourself! Now give me my book!"
"Why should I? I want to see who else you resent."
Jahan then began looking through the pages of the book. "Hey Harley, do you a guy named Light?"
"Who?" asked Harley.
"He's a guy who has a book that if he writes somebody's name in it, they died of a heart attack. I doubt you can do that, or else I would be dead now."
"I wish I could."
"So Coordinators are murderers as well!"
"Only to those who are annoying pricks," said another familiar voice.
Jahan and Harley turned around and saw Drew and Bayleef walking towards them. Drew had a cookie in his hands (that he bought from the cafeteria). "Jahan, I'll be happy once we move on from Blackthorn City," Drew mumbled. "I'm tired of you repeating yourself over and over again. 'Coordinators are this. Coordinators are that. I was a champion…"
"I was!" Jahan shouted.
"Like May and I said…we never heard of you…and apparently, neither did Norman since you didn't win his badge."
"I did so…see!"
Jahan took out his Badge Case and flashed the Balance Badge at Drew. It looked very much like the Balance Badge, but Drew noticed that some parts of the metal were wrapped and bent. "Why are some parts of it bent?" Drew asked.
"I left it in the sun for too long, okay!" Jahan said, rather frantically.
"Right…" Harley said, sarcastically.

"Cyndaquil, I never realized that about you," May said.
"Yeah well…that's the story. I had a horrible trainer and so I believed that that's what all humans were," Cyndaquil said.
"Hmmm…red hair…I think I've met a trainer like that before."
"Well…either way, if I ever do see him again, I'm burning him to a crisp."
"Well, let's hope we never see him again. But Cyndaquil, I'm nothing like that."
"Yeah right…"
"I'm not really! You have just been so stubborn that you never gave me a chance. When you collapsed at my feet, did you think your old trainer would even help you…or feed you?"
Cyndaquil thought to herself for a moment. "You know," she thought. "I saw her having fun with her Pokémon. They were laughing and happy. I guess…maybe she isn't as bad as I thoug…"
Cyndaquil was interrupted when Nurse Joy opened the door. "May…I'm going to need you to leave right now. I still need to do a few tests," she said.
"Okay," replied May. She got up and walked out the door. Nurse Joy shut the door behind her. She turned back to Cyndaquil, only this time her smile grew wicked. "You're coming with me," she smirked, in…a very deep voice that surprised Cyndaquil. Cyndaquil grew even more suspicious when Nurse Joy pulled out a burlap sack.
May, unaware of what was going on in Cyndaquil's room, was headed back to the lobby. She saw Drew standing against the wall, watching as Jahan and Harley continued their usual bickering. "Hey Drew!" she shouted.
Drew turned around and saw May walking towards him. "Oh hi," Drew replied.
"So, what are these two doing?" May asked.
"You know, the usual: acting like a bunch of idiots," answered Drew.
"Where were you doing all day?" asked May.
"I was just getting Bayleef ready for her first contest appearance."
"Contest?" May asked. "Oh, that's right! The Blackthorn City Contest is coming up!"
"Don't tell me you forgot!"
"Well, I was pretty busy with the gym training."
"I can tell. I was watching you train again. Squirtle's really doing great."
"He is. It'll only be a matter of time before he evolves into a Wartortle."
The two continued to watch Harley and Jahan bicker at each other, fighting over Harley's book. Bayleef then nudged May in the side of the ribs. May looked down at her. "Um…what is it?" asked May. She then remembered the story Cyndaquil told her in the room. "Oh…you're worried about Cyndaquil, aren't you?" she asked. Bayleef nodded her head. "She's doing okay. She's still bad, but maybe if you and maybe Croconaw visited her maybe it will cheer her up."
"That does sound like a good idea," Drew said. "But how are you going to get Croconaw from Jahan? I don't think he cares that Croconaw is friends with Cyndaquil. All he sees is that Cyndaquil is your Pokémon…"
"I don't think Jahan is that mean as to not let Croconaw visit an old friend." May began to walk towards Jahan.
Jahan had finished his argument with Harley. "Alright, here's your stupid book back," Jahan said, throwing the book into Harley's face. "If you need me I'm going to get changed into my sleep clothes."
"Try to stay out of the women's room this time," scolded May.
"I told you! IT WASN'T MY FAULT!" he shouted, angrily. He stared at Harley with an angry expression. Harley looked up and locked eyes with him. "Don't worry," he answered. "I didn't mess with the signs this time. Nurse Joy got smart and super glued them to the wall." Jahan collected his nightwear and headed towards the changing rooms. May walked closer to Croconaw. "Hey," she whispered. "Want to visit Cyndaquil in her room?"
Croconaw jumped happily as he, Bayleef, and May began walking to Cyndaquil's room.
Jahan entered the men's dressing room, checking the signs. Harley was right. The signs were super glued to prevent further problems. Jahan entered the room…and came back out with a stern look. He stared at Harley. Harley noticed this. "What? Am I so attractive that you want stare at me for the rest of your life?" taunted Harley.
"Don't flatter yourself," replied Jahan. "Why did you do it?"
"Do what?"
"Don't lie to me!"
"I don't know what you are talking."
"You know what I'm talking about! You stripped Nurse Joy down to her underwear, tied her up, taped her mouth, and shoved her down onto the floor of the men's changing room."
"What?!? I never did that!"
"See for yourself!"
Jahan left Harley to the men's changing room. He was right. Nurse Joy was struggling around on the ground, in her underwear, trying to get herself free. She continued to mumble, as her mouth was taped shut. "What happened? Who did this to you?" Harley asked. He kneeled down and ripped the tape off Nurse Joy's mouth. "Ow! It is Team Galactic! They're here to steal the Pokémon!" she shouted, frantically.
"What?!?" Harley and Jahan asked. Jahan stared at Harley, suspiciously. "I didn't do this to her!" Harley exclaimed, angrily.
"Yeah, you're right. That would involve undressing a woman, something you can never bear to do with your lifestyle," Jahan replied.
"Ohhhh…you skinny, chicken…" Harley sputtered, angrily.
"Hahaha," Drew laughed.
"AAHHHH!" shouted a voice.
Harley and Jahan jumped when they heard the piercing shriek. Harley, Jahan, and Nurse Joy left the room and met May in the lobby. "What happened?" Drew asked.
"The Pokémon…they're gone! Cyndaquil, Blaziken…everybody!" she panted, frantically.
"What?!?" they all asked, simultaneously.
"Oh no, Cacturne!" Harley shouted.
The five ran to the back room where the Pokémon were held. True to what May said, the entire Pokémon Center was cleaned out of their Pokémon. "No!" Harley shouted.
"They stole mine too?" asked Jahan.
"Someone call the cops," Drew said.
"Let's go and see if we can find them!" May shouted. "They couldn't have gone far!"
Harley, May, Drew, and Jahan ran out the door and into the night sky, hoping to find Team Galactic.

Team Galactic members were located on their mountainside. All of the Pokémon were locked up in steel cages. Their tents have evolved into makeshift warehouses. Helicopters and trucks were standing idly by, as they were about ready to leave with the Pokémon in tow.
"Let us out of here!" Squirtle shouted.
Cyndaquil got on its feet and blew a weak Ember attack at the bars. Commander Jupiter, who was guarding the Pokémon, laughed at her feeble attempts. "Even if your attack was at full power, it's going to take more than that to break free. These bars are shock-proof, fireproof…"
Blaziken (A/N: he's still wearing his Garchomp outfit) suddenly got up and tried to use Blaze Kick against the metal bars. Not only was the fire on his feet put out, his foot was hurt by the impact.
"And…unbreakable," finished Jupiter.
"Great…" Blaziken groaned, angrily as he rubbed his injured leg.
"So, now that you know that there is no possible way for you to escape, the best thing to do is to sit there and shut up while we get you guys onto the choppers and trucks," Jupiter commanded.
Blaziken grew crosser as Jupiter smirked at him. Blaziken took a deep breath and blew a huge Flamethrower into the sky, nearing hitting Jupiter (she stepped aside at the last moment).

In the distance, the Pokémon Center was surrounded by Officer Jenny and other police officers. The Growlithe they always had on them were sniffing the area for any scents or clues. May and the rest were held up outside. "This is stupid!" criticized Jahan.
"God, you can't just wait to rip somebody, can't you?" Harley asked.
"We're wasting valuable time here! They have no idea, do they?" asked Jahan.
"Well…" May began.
Suddenly, everybody turned around and saw a huge fireball in the air. It was big and bright enough to light up the surrounding area. "Whoa…" Drew said, amazed.
"That must be somebody's Pokémon," deduced May. She looked down and saw smoke coming from the side of the mountain. "That's where they are being held. Come on!"
"Let's go, people!" Officer Jenny shouted. The officers got onto their motorcycles and their Growlithe jumped in the sidecars. The sirens were sounded and they sped off, following May and the rest.

All of the Team Galactic were amazed at the Flamethrower attack. "Amazing," Mars said.
"A Garchomp with the ability to use Flamethrower and Blaze Kick?" pondered Jupiter.
"What? A Garchomp?" Blaziken asked. He looked down and saw that his fur was still purple and the wings and fins were still attached to him. "Oh right…I'm still wearing this stupid thing."
"A Garchomp with fire attacks is quite a rarity," speculated Saturn.
"Oh man! I going to get a huge promotion for this!" bragged Neptune, excitedly.
"I'm not a Garchomp, you idiots!" Blaziken shouted. The Team Galactic Commanders took no notice. "Let us out, you creeps!" Squirtle shouted.
"Get me out so I can smash you!" Tyranitar (Jahan) shouted.
The Pokémon continued to argue and shout at the commanders. "God, they're annoying," complained Jupiter.
"Don't worry. I solved that problem," Neptune proclaimed.
He took a remote out of his pocket and pressed the big green button. The Pokémon looked up and saw some strange wires coming out from the corners. "Huh?" Wigglytuff (Harley) asked. Suddenly, the wires lit up with electricity. "Oh no," Cacturne whimpered. The whole cage filled with electricity, shocking and electrocuting everybody inside. The Pokémon screamed and shouted in pain.
"Ow…that hurts," cried Eevee.
"See?" asked Neptune. "Problem solved."
"Wow…you really are one of us," commented Jupiter.
The Pokémon remained on the floor, paralyzed beyond care. Munchlax got up on its chubby legs. "Great…that really sucked," he murmured.
"We're going to die, aren't we?" Banette (Harley) asked.
"Shut up," Flygon replied.
"Yeah, you wuss!" Tyranitar added.
"Hey, how come you and Tyranitar didn't get shocked?" Cyndaquil asked.
"We're both part-Ground, and thus immune to electricity," answered Flygon.
Suddenly, the Galactic Commanders came back. This time…they brought the leader, Cyrus. "So…you've taken Pokémon from the Pokémon Center nearby?" Cyrus asked. "I must say Neptune, I am surprised that I didn't even come up with such a simple plan."
"Thank you sir," Neptune replied. Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn looked at Neptune and Cyrus in hatred in their eyes.
"I'll see to it that you get a very nice bonus," continued Cyrus. "Now then, what do we have in our stock?"
Cyrus and Neptune continued to look at the distressed Pokémon. "Let's see…so far, the girl had an Eevee, a Garchomp, a Squirtle, a sick Cyndaquil, and a Munchlax," reported Neptune. Cyrus eyed the 'Garchomp' suspiciously. "Is that some sort of joke?" asked Cyrus, angrily.
"Um…what do you mean?" Neptune asked.
"What attacks does it know?" Cyrus asked.
"So far, we know it can use Blaze Kick and Flamethrower."
"It can't learn those attacks."
"Actually it can."
Cyrus walked up to the cage door. He unlocked the cage using a laser remote and pulled Blaziken out of the cage. He ripped the fins and the wings off Blaziken. All that was left was Blaziken himself, but his fur was still dyed purple. "Ohhh…" Neptune said.
"Nice catch Neptune," Jupiter said.
"It-It-It can be a shiny Blaziken," Neptune stuttered.
"Neptune, I don't like you wasting our time and money on fake Pokémon. Your promotion is now a mere raise."
"Ah man…" groaned Neptune.
"The other girl's Pokémon are all useless," Cyrus said, scornfully.
"Hey!" Cyndaquil shouted.
"What about the others?" Neptune asked.
"The others, I'm quite impressed it. You collected quite a lot of powerful ones, especially from that boy John…or whatever his name is," remarked Cyrus. "Are the trucks here yet?"
"No. Only the chopper, sir," Jupiter said.
"Well get on the radio and tell the drivers to hurry up! We can't waste time. The police may already be on the way."
As the Commanders were conversing with Cyrus, Cyndaquil continued to feel depressed. "I'm not like your last trainer," Cyndaquil thought to herself. "She abandoned me for one minute and I get stolen by creeps with bad haircuts."
"She didn't know this was going to happen," Eevee said.
"Besides, we've been through this before," admitted Munchlax.
"She'll come for us," Blaziken said.
"What makes you say that?" asked Staraptor (Jahan). "My trainer's always told me those Coordinators…"
Staraptor was interrupted when Jahan's Luxray bit down on his wing and used Thunder Fang.
"Now is not a good time," Luxray said. "We need to find out how to break free from this prison."
"Hey! Hold it right there!" shouted Cyrus.
The Pokémon turned and saw that the Team Galactic had cornered an intruder. Blaziken and the rest of May's team knew who it was. "May?!?" Blaziken asked.
"Well, so much for a grand rescue," Staraptor remarked.
"What are you doing here?!?" asked Cyrus.
"I…I just wanted to save my Pokémon," May said, in a very high-pitched voice.
"Get on the ground, now!" Jupiter shouted.
"But…"
"Grrrr…" growled Cyrus's Houndoom.
May flattened herself onto her stomach as Houndoom bared its fangs at May. However, Blaziken and Cacturne noticed something odd about May. She had purple hair and her voice was even more high-pitched than usual. "Hey Cacturne, does May seem a little off to you?" Blaziken asked.
"She does I admit."
Then, comes a whisper. "Psst…hey guys."
Everyone turned around and saw May kneeling down at the cage door. Drew and his Bayleef and Jahan and his Croconaw were alongside her. "May…you're here!" Cyndaquil shouted, happily. "You're actually here!"
"Shush…we're going to break you out of here," Drew whispered.
Blaziken noticed that there were two May's, one was dressed like a Cacturne and the other was like the original May. "Hey, what are you doing wearing a Cacturne outfit?" Blaziken asked. Cacturne and Blaziken then looked at the other May, and then back to the May in front of them. They connected two and two together. "That's Harley with Team Galactic, isn't it?" Blaziken asked.
"Yeah…it was his idea. He and I switched clothes. He said that if I wore this, I would be more stealthier," explained May.
"Not surprising," Cacturne said. "Harley's cross-dressed as her before."
Jahan's Pokémon looked at Cacturne with wide eyes. "Hey, my partner trying to save us. The least you can do is not judge him," Cacturne said.
As Team Galactic were busy interrogating Harley, Drew, Jahan, and May tried to break the locks to the cages. Although, nothing was working. "What kind of locks are these?" Drew asked. "They don't have and keyholes to pick."
"Croconaw, try and Bite the lock!" Jahan shouted.
Croconaw jumped up and began gnawing at the metal locks. Unfortunately, it did little good. "It's not good," Cyndaquil said. "It opens by a laser remote…which is what the leader always has on him."
May looked back at Team Galactic and Harley. Harley distracted all of the Galactic members…and Cyrus happened to leave his remote on a wooden crate right beside him. May started to tiptoe her way over to the remote. "Are you crazy?" Jahan asked.
"May, get back here!" Drew shouted quietly.
"I know what I'm doing," May said.
She used the darkness and quietly sneaked her way closer to Cyrus. They were still arguing with Harley. "Let me and my Pokémon go!" Harley begged.
"Sorry young lady," Neptune said. "But the Pokémon belong to Team Galactic now!"
"You monsters!" Harley cried out. He then began crying (horribly). He placed his face on the ground. He saw May trying to sneak closer to the remote. "May, I hope this plan works," he thought to himself.
May was now only a foot away from the remote. Nevertheless, she had to be careful. Cyrus was very close to her. May reached her hand out…and grabbed the remote from the crate. May looked at Cyrus's back. "Good, I'm safe," she thought. May quickly ran back to Harley and Jahan. May first used the remote to unlock the cages to her Pokémon.
"We're free!" Munchlax shouted, happily.
"Shush, you idiot!" scolded Blaziken.
Drew then used the remote to try to free his Pokémon. Houndoom's ears poked up as he heard various Pokémon chatter. He turned around and began barking loudly. "Houndoom, silence yourself this instance!" Cyrus said, sternly. Then, Cyrus turned around…and saw the three trying to get away. "We have intruders!" Cyrus shouted.
"Oh great, we're busted," Jahan moaned.
"Well, it looks like we have no choice by to fight," Drew said. "Bayleef and Masquerain, use Razor Leaf and Silver Wind!"
Bayleef then began shooting out very sharp razor-edged leaves while Masquerain used Silver Wind to propel them. "I don't think so," Cyrus remarked. "Houndoom, dispose of them with Flamethrower!"
Houndoom raised his head up and blew a huge stream of fire at the two. The two quickly rolled/flew out of the way. Cyrus then took out another Poké Ball and threw it in the air. "Weavile, assist Houndoom with Ice Punch!"
Weavile popped out of its Poké Ball. Alongside Houndoom, Weavile flew quickly towards Bayleef, his fist encased in ice.
Harley got up on his feet. "Ariados, take it out with Spider Web!" Harley commanded. Ariados crawled from its cage and shot out a huge stream of webbing from its mouth. Weavile and Houndoom were tied down onto the ground.
"Good shot, Harley!" May shouted.
May then looked in front of her and saw two Crobat staring at her. "Umm…oh no…" worried May.
"Stay away from my trainer!" shouted a voice. A few fireballs were shot at the Pokémon. May turned…and was happy to see Cyndaquil on its feet ready to battle. The fire on her back was as bright and red as ever. "This woman cares for me!"
"Cyndaquil, are you…are you helping me?" May asked.
"Just give me the word and I'll torch them," boasted Cyndaquil.
"Try it, shorty!" Crobat said.
Cyndaquil took a deep breath and unleashed everything onto the Crobat, severely burning them. "Amazing…" May mumbled looking on. She was happy that Cyndaquil was showing her some respect towards her.
Once the fire cleared, all that was left were charred Crobat and an exhausted Cyndaquil. "Cyndaquil!" May shouted, frantically. She scurried to where Cyndaquil lied. "Cyndaquil, are you okay?" asked May.
"I…you actually came…for me," squeaked Cyndaquil, weakly. "You are…better than my…my last trainer."
"Of course I am," replied May. "I really do care about you."
Suddenly, she heard some grunting. One of the Crobat was getting up. "Oh no," May said.
Crobat got onto his feet and stretched its wings out. He then lunged at May. May hugged Cyndaquil closely, protecting her from a possible attack.
Then, Squirtle appeared out of nowhere and used Tackle against Crobat, knocking him backwards. Crobat was still flying in the air. Squirtle then used Water Gun against the Crobat. However, Crobat continued to fly against the water. "Persistent, huh?" Squirtle asked. He then transformed his Water Gun into an Ice Beam. The ice connected with Crobat and froze his entire body in ice. "Alright Squirtle!" cheered May.
"Yeah, I'm the man…or Pokémon, whatever!" boasted Squirtle. He raised his arms in victory.
"Show…off…" Cyndaquil groaned.
All of a sudden, something strange happened. Squirtle began to glow brightly. Then, he began to change forms. He grew pointy ears, his tail puffier, and his claws grew out. May was shocked to see what was happening before her. "Squirtle…he's…he's…"
The white light went away and Squirtle was entirely different from before. Even he was amazed. "What the…what happened to me?" he asked himself.
"Squirtle, I can't believe it!" May shouted, happily. "You did it! You evolved into a Wartortle!"
"Seriously?!? I'm a Wartortle now?!? Alright!" Wartortle cheered, proudly.
Wartortle then climbed onto the highest stack of wooden crates. "Everyone…I now have newfound strength and power! People and Pokémon beware! I shall…"
Wartortle's speech was cut off when a Stuntank blew a huge stream of fire into his face, burning him. "Ow…that sucked," he moaned. He then fell back, much to May and Cyndaquil's disappointment. "Great, now he's stuck-up," complained May.
"What are you idiots doing?!?" Cyrus asked, angrily. "Get me some reinforcements!"
All of the Team Galactic grunts and commanders began sending out a group of Zubat, Glameow, Stunky, and Toxicroak. "Alright, defend the base!" one of the grunts shouted.
While they were busy fighting with each other, Jahan was freeing his Pokémon. Soon enough, Team Galactic had enough. Cyrus began to board the helicopter. "Attention all Team Galactic members, I believe this is a pointless battle. So, everyone must get onto a truck or the chopper in the next ten minutes or you are being left behind," Cyrus said in his radio.
"But sir…we need more time to regroup," replied Saturn.
"And we have to steal the Pokémon again," added Neptune.
"That is my final warning! Ten minutes and I'm leaving!" warned Cyrus.
Jahan was almost done with his Pokémon. All he needed to do was to free Tyranitar. But suddenly, Neptune appeared in front of him. "I don't think so!" Neptune said, angrily. "You are not going to take away my reward."
"Back off, you freak!" Jahan shouted, angrily. Luxray appeared in front of his trainer. He bared his fangs and powered up its teeth with electricity. "Oh yeah?" asked Neptune.
Suddenly, a giant Magmortar walked beside his trainer in front of Jahan and Luxray. Magmortar was definitely much bigger than Luxray. "Wow…he's huge," commented Jahan.
"Oh please, I would be too if I was on two legs," boasted Luxray.
Magmortar lifted its hands at Luxray and unleashed a huge Smokescreen, covering part of the complex. The rest of the Stunky lifted their tails and used Poison Gas to cover the entire complex. "Oh no," Jahan groaned. May, Harley, Drew, Jahan and their Pokémon began to cough violently. "Stupid Stunky and their poison," coughed Jahan.
Suddenly, the helicopter's blades blew the smoke clear. It took the trainers a bit to adjust their eyesight. The trucks loaded with Grunts have already driven away and the Commanders and Cyrus were flying away in the chopper. "Darn it!" Drew shouted. "They're getting away."
"At least all of our Pokémon are safe," chipped in Harley.
"No!" Jahan shouted.
Everyone looked up and saw that Tyranitar was being flown away in his cage that was hanging from a cable connected to the bottom of the chopper. "Tyranitar, come back!" shouted Jahan. Jahan then began running towards the helicopter. "Jahan, come back!" May shouted.
Jahan chased after Tyranitar's cage. "I'm not going to let them steal my best Pokémon," he muttered to himself.
"Save me, master!" boomed Tyranitar. Jahan then jumped up onto the bottom of the cage. "I got it!" he shouted happily. The chopper then began to go higher into the sky. They were now a good hundred feet off the air.
Unfortunately, Cyrus was watching over the side of the chopper. "It seems we are carrying some extra weight," he uttered. He then took out a remote. "Good thing I kept another remote in case something like this happens." He pressed the big green button on the remote.
An electric current traveled through the metal of the cage. Now, since Tyranitar was part Rock-type, the electricity doesn't hurt him one bit. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for Jahan. The electricity loosened his grip and Jahan began falling from a hundred and thirty-seven feet. Jahan screamed as he began plunging towards the ground.
"Jahan!" May shouted. She saw Jahan falling. She stopped just underneath his supposed landing spot and stretched her arms out to catch him. Jahan fell into her arms, knocking onto the back. Both Jahan and May were unconscious, but they recovered. "Are you okay?" May asked.
"Get off!" Jahan shouted, shoving her back.
"Well, you're welcome!" May replied, angrily.
Sounds of police sirens and the sight of flashing lights caught everybody's attention. "Oh goody, the authorities are here…about fifteen minutes too late," joked Harley.
"You always have to have the last word, don't you?" Drew asked.
"People just happen to like me," replied Harley.

A/N: That's right…Jahan is the one who's Pokémon gets stolen…and it happens to be his Tyranitar. But on the plus side, Cyndaquil now respects and obeys May and Squirtle evolved into a Wartortle! May feels even more confident in her Pokémon. But will she be able to take on Clair's newly powered-up Pokémon?
Oh, and if anyone is interested, I put up a new poll up on my profile. Please feel free to look and vote if you want. All of the storylines presented are funny/serious in their own way:
(Death Note) Kira: Thy Name is Yagami: Takes place after Death Note series. Ryuk, again bored with the Shinigami Realm, decides to drop his Death Note in the human world for more amusement...and who better to pick it up than the distressed younger sister of Light Yagami.
(Bully) Total Shootout Chaos: A school shooting at Bullworth Academy shakes up the school and its students. With 42 students killed, it's nothing compared to the media frenzy and outbreak that occurs after the shooting.
(Lucky Star) Lucky Mountain: Konata Izumi invites her friends to go with her to California's Six Flags Magic Mountain. Tsukasa goes to conquer her fear of roller coasters, though she gets less-than-desirable results.
(Mario Kart) This one is just Mario and his friends (and enemies) entering a kart racing tournament.
NEXT TIME…
Jahan, after having his Tyranitar stolen by Team Galactic, becomes sorely depressed and angry with everybody, especially the Coordinators and police. Now, because of his previous behavior, no one believes he deserves their pity…mainly because he doesn't want it…especially from them. He becomes very violent, slapping May (getting some heat from Drew) and attacking the police. May wants to help out, but she fears backlash from Harley and Drew…and Jahan himself.
Meanwhile, Wartortle and Cyndaquil (despite Cyndaquil's newfound attitude) began to feud with each other. Actually, everyone's getting tired of his cocky attitude, just because he evolved. Guess Blaziken is going to have to knock some sense into him…unless Munchlax wants to volunteer.
Will Jahan's behavior become even worse…or will he reconsider when May tries her best to help him? And will the other Pokémon cure (get rid of) Wartortle's cocky arrogance?
Tune into the next drama-filled chapter of "Pokémon: Contest Chronicles"!
