Daisuke smiled at them then stop and heard something that sound like a roar, seeing him stop made everyone looked at him.

"Daisuke what's wrong?" Hikari asked the goggle head boy.

"I thought I heard something roared" Daisuke said looking at the left side of the forest.

"I didn't hear anything" Veemon said, scratching his head.

Something in the bushes was rustling then a Red Cranidos pops out and charges at Daisuke.

"Whoa Whoa Whoa!" Daisuke shouted, placing his hands up.

(Daisuke Voice): A Shiny Prehistoric Discovery


"Cranidos!" Cranidos said, smiling.

"What don't Oof!" Daisuke said as Cranidos tackles him down and starts to slobber him.

"Hey, cut it out" Veemon said, trying to pull Cranidos off of Daisuke.

"No way a Cranidos" Ash said, in shock.

"Pika (Cool)" Pikachu said, in amazement.

"A Cranidos huh?" Hikari said, taking out her pokedex.

Pokemon Analyze (Dexter's Voice)

Cranidos the Headbutt Pokemon. A lifelong jungle dweller from 100 million years ago, it would snap obstructing trees with headbutts.

"Wait this Cranidos is a different color then on the one on the pokedex" Hikari said, while analyzing Cranidos.

"A shiny Cranidos, that's amazing" May said, smiling.

"But it's impossible for a Cranidos to be in the wild though" Brock said, with the others turning their attention to him.

"That's right Cranidos can only come from fossils" Ash said to the tall brown hair guy.

Cranidos walked towards Hikari and rubbed his head on her shoulder.

"Wow Cranidos is a real gentle one" Ken said, smiling.

Hikari smiled and petted Cranidos' head "Aww your so cute" she said, smiling.

"HEY!" Everyone turned at looked at a Big Thug with a Tyranitar standing next to him "That Cranidos belongs to me, hand it over" he demanded.

The gang looked at the guy very concerned then Daisuke looked at Cranidos as she walked in front and was very mad at the the thug.

"Cranidos is acting different towards this guy right in the moment he appeared" Taichi said, looking at the Head butt Pokemon.

"I think that guy has done something bad to Cranidos" Agumon said.

"Just who the hell are you!?" Daisuke shouted.

"The name's Bass and I collect rare pokemon and sell them for profit, you see I've been looking for that Cranidos for awhile I must thank you all " Bass said, grinning.

"You collect pokemon and sell them!?" Ken shouted.

"What kind of monster are you!?" May hollered.

"Your sick" Sora said in low tone.

"You will not come near Cranidos" Daisuke said with him and Veemon in front of Cranidos.

"Craniii….." Cranidos looked at the duo of Miracles in shock.

"Hey I don't have time for this, Tyranitar use Hyper Beam" Bass shouted.

"Raaaaaa!" Tyranitar shot the orange beam towards the gang and Cranidos.

"Shit watch out!" Daisuke shouted with everyone getting out of the way as the hyper beam hits the ground causing an explosion.

Daisuke shook off the pain and looked at the Thug very serious "This guy is bad news no doubt, Veemon let's get him" he said to the dragon.

"Right Daisuke" Veemon said, rising his fist.

"Good idea Pikachu you too" Ash said to the electric mouse.

"Pika(Right!)" Pikachu said with both him and Veemon got in their fighting position.

Bass smirked at what he sees "Hahaha you gotta be kidding your nothing but little insects that wants to be squash, but to make things more fun come on out Weezing!" The Thug calls out his pokemon.

"Weezing!"

"What is that?" Hikari said, taking out her pokedex.

Pokemon Analyze (Dexter's Voice)

Weezing the Poison Gas Pokemon and the evolve form of Koffing. Weezing loves the gases given off by rotted kitchen garbage. This Pokémon will find a dirty, unkempt house and make it its home. At night, when the people in the house are asleep, it will go through the trash.

"Weezing Dark Pulse and Tyranitar use Hyper Beam!" Bass said, grinning while crossing his arms.

Weezing shot a beam of dark circles and Tyranitar shot another Hyper beam "Look out!" Taichi shouted to them.

"Pikachu counter with thunderbolt!" Ash shouted, pointing forward.

"Veemon shoot it down with Dragon Pulse!" Daisuke shouted, thrusting his fist forward.

Veemon's and Pikachu's attacks collide with the enemy's Pokemon's attacks causing a explosion as smoke brew throughout the field.

"How nice now let's see if you guys are tough to take on this, Tyranitar use Stone Edge on Pikachu and Weezing use Toxic on that Vee-what ever it's name is" Bass said pointing forward.

Tyranitar was cloaked in a ring of sharp rocks and launched at Pikachu and hits head on "Pikachu!" Ash shouted in fear.

Weezing spits out a purple liquid at Veemon "Veemon watch out!" Daisuke shouted to the blue dragon.

Veemon was about to get hit but was quickly pushed away and crashed on the ground, quickly recovering he looked up and was stunned to see Cranidos standing in front of him with purple sparks and bubbles cloaking around him.

"Cranidos!" Dawn said in shock.

"He push Veemon away from the Toxic attack but got hit" Sora said, worried.

Cranidos groans in pain and was about to pass out but only for Veemon to catch him "Cranidos why did you do that?" he asked the headbutt pokemon.

"Alright time to finish this and take that Cranidos" Bass said then something sounded like a police car was heard "Shit that Office Jenny is coming, we better get going" Bass said with Tyranitar and Weezing following behind leaving the gang alone, just in a good time Officer Jenny has arrived.

"Is everything okay?" Officer Jenny asked them.

"Officer Jenny" Dawn said.

Everyone came together expect for Brock because Croagunk is next to him just in case he goes in his annoying behavior "It's alright Croagunk besides I think I had enough of falling for girls for now" Brock said, smiling.

"Croag Croag (….. …..)"

"I heard what sounded like a serious fight" Jenny said.

"Yeah this thug named Bass I do believe and he was after this Cranidos" Hikari said, placing her hand on Crandios' head.

Jenny crouched down and noticed that Cranidos was poisoned "This Cranidos is poisoned, we'll have to take him to the Pokemon Center" She suggested.

Brock takes out his Pokegear and checked the map " The nearest Pokemon Center is in Azela Town" He said.

"Then in that case let's head to Azela town now" Daisuke said, picking Crandios up.

"Let's go" Ken said with everyone nodded and left.

Without them noticing, Team Rocket was hiding in the bushes and heard everything leaving evil smirks on their faces.

"So the twerps found a Cranidos huh?" Jessie smirked.

"A rare chance to capture a Fossil Pokemon" James said, rising his fist.

"And this time we will succeed" Meowth said, extending his claws.

"Wooooba!"


Azela Town

The gang and Officer Jenny has made to Azela Town and are in the Pokemon Center right now as Nurse Joy is taking care of Cranidos. In the meantime Daisuke explains to Jenny about situation that has happen before she arrived.

"So you all encountered the pokemon smuggler, I see but I know he's gonna look for Cranidos still" Jenny believed, crossing her arms.

"Well we'll be ready for him" Taichi said, rising his fist.

"That's right" Agumon said, extending his claws.

"We should come up with some kind of plan to catch Bass without letting him take Cranidos" Ash suggested.

"Pikachu (I agree 100%)" Pikachu nodded in agreement.

"Wait a minute, I think I got one" Dawn said, smiling getting everyone's attention.

Everyone was talking then Hikari noticed Daisuke along with Veemon are standing in front of the counter waiting to hear if Cranidos is gonna be okay.

"I hope Cranidos is gonna be okay" Daisuke said, crossing his arms and looking up.

"I know he took a hit for me, I won't forgive myself if he's not gonna recover" Veemon said, clutching his fist.

"He's gonna be fine, you guys" The duo of Miracles turn their heads and see the duo of light.

"You can't go blame yourself, for what we know it's that Bastard Bass's fault" Gatomon said, rising her paws with her claws extending.

Then a moment the bell sounded off getting their attention as the door opens with Nurse Joy and Blissey came out with Cranidos.

"Cranidos are you okay?" Daisuke asked, petting the Head Butt pokemon's head.

"Crani (A-okay)" Cranidos said,smiling.

"Cranidos is gonna be fine, it's a great thing you guys brought him in here or the poison would has take more of it's toll" Nurse Joy said, smiling.

Ash looked at see Cranidos "Alright Cranidos is okay" he said, smiling.

"Pikachu(Yahoo!)" Pikachu said, jumping.

Veemon walked up to Cranidos "Cranidos I want to thank you for what you did" he said, bowing his head.

Cranidos stood there and in a second he smiled and tackles Veemon down then started to wrestle him "Hey Hey Hey come on stop hahahahaha" Veemon said, laughing.

Everyone was smiling at that the two then suddenly and collision of Sliver wind and Psybeam crashed into the Pokemon center as smoke brew around everyone.

"Hey *cough* *cough* what the hell was that!?" Daisuke said, while coughing.

"That was a Psybeam and Sliver Wind" Brock said, coughing as well.

"It must be Bass" Dawn said then out of no where a pink hand came out and grab Cranidos and Veemon pulling them away.

"CRANIDOS! VEEMON" Daisuke shouted.

"Stop it!" Hikari shouted then the smoke subsided and Team Rocket was standing with Malamar and Yanmega with Veemon and Crandios trapped in a big container.

"Who are you crooks!?" Jenny shouted.

"Prepare for trouble you'll know"

"And make it double get with the flow"

"Surrender now or prepare to fight"

"Meowth that's right"

"Wooooooba!"

"Team Rocket!" The gang shouted, angrily.

"It's no doubt that you trying to do something disgusting" Hikari said, angrily.

"Give back Veemon and Cranidos!" Taichi demanded.

"Hahahaha like that's ever gonna happen" Jessie said, laughing.

Veemon and Cranidos are trying to escape from the container but with no luck.

"Don't waste your breath this container is 10 times resisted to any attacks you throw at it" Meowth said, smirking.

"That's it Charmander let's go!" Daisuke calls out his fire-type pokemon.

"Chaaaaa" Charmander roared.

"Gatomon let's help out" Hikari said to the feline digimon.

"Gladly" Gatomon said with vicious look.

"Pikachu let's get in" Ash said to the electric mouse.

"Pikachu(You got it)" Pikachu said with all three ready and waiting.

"So you three want to play? Fine with us, Yanmega use Sliver wind!" Jessie said, pointing forward.

"Malamar use Psybeam" James said, grinning.

"I'm getting in this one, I got some new moves of my own" Meowth said, charging in.

"Charmander use Flamethrower on Yanmega" Daisuke said, thrusting his fist forward.

"Pika!" Pikachu shouted in pain and crashed on the ground.

"Pikachu!" Ash shouted in shock.

"No way did Meowth just used Shadow Claw!?" Dawn asked in shock.

"Not just that" Meowth said, charging at Gatomon with his tail glowing in Metallic color.

"That's Iron tail" Brock said.

"You want to play?" Gatomon said, charging with her claws glowing metal like color and extended.

"Bring it on!" Meowth said, grinning with both colliding multiple times without stopping.

"Daisuke don't worry about me and Gatomon, you and Ash deal with the rest and get Veemon and Cranidos out of there" Hikari said, to the goggle head boy.

"Right Charmander use Iron tail on Yanmega!" Daisuke commanded.

"Cha!(Right!)" Charmander rockets towards Yanmega and smacks her with his iron-like tail.

"How dare you! Yanmega use Ancient Power!" Jessie said, pointing forward.

Veemon took a thought about it and smirked back at the headbutt pokemon "You got it".

Veemon and Cranidos used Head Smash and Zen Headbutt on the container and successfully got out getting everyone's attention.

"Veemon! Cranidos!" Daisuke said, smiling.

"The combination of Head Smash and Zen Headbutt work like a charm" Veemon said with him and Cranidos giving each other a high five.

"Craniiii!" Daisuke turned around and see Cranidos up in the air flying towards him "Oh geez not again!" Daisuke was about to run but too late Cranidos landed on him "Cranidos that was too much….owwwwww!" Daisuke groaned in pain making Hikari giggle.

"Cranidos sure does have a lot energy and really is a happy pokemon" Hikari said,while giggling.

"That's for sure" Gatomon said, smiling as well.

"Another thing that I've noticed, Cranidos really likes Daisuke" May said, getting everyone looking at her.

"Really?" Daisuke said, then Cranidos looked at him and smiled "Wow that cool, you can come along with me".

Cranidos smiled happily and rubbed his head on Daisuke's cheek "Alright I just got myself a Cranidos" he said, hugging his new pokemon.

"Yahoo!" Veemon said, jumping.
