Ash's Pokemon Journey

Summary: This story is about how I think that ash's journey should have gone through, Kanto, Orange Islands, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and Unova. Smart, a psychic and an Aura user (He'll find out about being a psyphic and Aura user later). I do not own pokemon.

Chapter 11

Celadon city, Hop Town and Scissor Street

Ash and company were now in a city called Celadon City. Before they arrived in Celadon City, they ran into a Mankey that liked to pick fights. Ash liked Mankey's fighting spirit and decided to catch it. Mankey put up quite a fight though; even though Ash was using Pidgeotto, as flying beats fighting, Mankey did not give up. Then Mankey evolved into a Primeape. Primeape turned out to be stronger than it was as a Mankey. But Ash didn't give up; he commanded Pidgeotto to use sky attack and that worked. Then Ash captured Primeape and was happy to have it on his team. Now they were having a nice break in Celadon City.

As they were having a break, Brock and Misty smelled a nice scent in the air. "Hey its perfume," said Misty "I'm going to check it out". "So am I," said Brock "where there is perfume, there is beautiful girls around". And Brock and Misty rushed off. Ash didn't mind perfume; his mum kept perfume all the time, although he couldn't understand why women were always so excited about it. "Oh well," he said to himself "everyone has something they like". Just then he thought of something. "Hey my mum's birthday is coming up. And since she likes perfume I will get her some for a present".

Ash went to the perfume store, where Misty was trying out different sorts of perfume. He entered the store and had a good look at the perfumes. "Which one would mum like?" he whispered "I think I would need to ask for some help". "May I help you?" said a voice behind him. Ash turned round and saw a woman in a kimono behind him. "Actually you can help," said Ash "you see I wish to buy some perfume for my mum because it's her birthday soon, as she likes perfume. But I really don't know that much about perfume". The woman smiled. "You're a nice boy," she said "I will gladly help. Now what does your mum like?" "Gardening," replied Ash "she loves doing that". "Then you need a perfume with garden scents". She turned to the ladies that were helping Misty. "Please help this nice boy with the perfumes of garden scents". The ladies looked at Ash and helped him right away. They showed all sorts of garden scented perfumes. Ash sniffed them one by one, until he finally found the one he was looking for. "I would like the wild flower garden perfume please," he said "it smells just like mum's garden". He brought the perfume, thanked the ladies and left the store. "I like that boy," said one of the ladies. "So do I," said another "not only is he cute, but a real sweetie". Then the ladies went back to work.

Ash sent the perfume to his mother by post and went to find Celadon Gym. Celadon Gym looked like a giant green house and the roof was in a design of the petals of a Gloom. When Ash was inside he saw flowers and trees everywhere. "Since Celadon Gym uses grass type pokemon," he said "it's no wonder that this gym is more like a greenhouse". He saw a lady at a reception desk and asked her if he could battle the gym leader. "Of course," said the lady "I'll take you to Erika right now".

The lady led Ash to where the gym battlefield was. Not only was the room filled with trees, flowers and grass, it was also filled with grass pokemon. Ash saw an Oddish and its two evolutionary forms, Gloom and Vileplume, Bellsprout and its two evolutionary forms, Weepinbell and Victreebel, Exeggcute and its evolved form Exeggutor and Tangela. Ash even saw a Bulbasur and its two evolutionary forms Ivysaur and Venusaur. Ash even saw Misty and Brock with the ladies that worked at the perfume store. "Erika," said the lady "this boy wishes to battle you". "Welcome" said a blue haired lady, who was Erika. Ash gasped a bit. "You're the lady who helped me with the perfumes" said Ash. "Ah I remember you," said Erika with a smile "I take it you are here to challenge me then?" "Yes I am," said Ash "I'm Ash by the way". "Well Ash," said Erika "as the perfume store manager and Celadon City's gym leader, I accept your challenge".

Ash and Erika went to the battlefield. "This will be a battle between Erika the gym leader and Ash Ketchum the challenger," said Erika's assistant "this will also be three vs three pokemon battle. Whoever knocks out the most pokemon first wins". Brock, Misty, Pikachu and the ladies were watching from the side lines. Some of the grass pokemon were watching too. "Okay," said Erika "Tangela go!" What looked a bush of vines, with two big eyes came out of Erika's pokeball.

Ash looked at Tangela on the pokedex: Tangela, the vine pokemon. Its body is wrapped in vines. The rest of its form is hidden beneath these vines.

"Then Vulpix I choose you" said Ash. His red fox got ready to battle. Erika smiled. "Even though you are using a fire type Ash," she said "don't think that you have won yet". "Don't worry Erika," said Ash "I know very well that you should never judge pokemon by types". "Okay," said Erika "Tangela use vine whip". Tangela shot out two vines, ready to hit Vulpix. "Use quick attack to dodge" said Ash. Vulpix's quick attack got away from the vine whip. "Use stun spore" said Erika. A yellow powder came off Tangela and headed for Vulpix. "Try to use flamethrower, before you get paralyzed" said Ash. But it was too late; the stun spore struck Vulpix and Vulpix felt numb. "Vulpix return" said Ash, returning Vulpix to her pokeball. "Charmander I choose you". Charmander got ready to fight. "Tangela return," said Erika "Weepinbell go. Use razor leaves". Weepinbell shot out a lot of leaves. "Use flamethrower to burn the leaves" said Ash. Charmander's flamethrower burnt the leaves to a crisp. "Now use skull bash". Charmander charged at Weepinbell and hit it with his head very hard. Weepinbell fainted. "Weepinbell return now" said Erika. The ladies on the side line watched in amazement. "Wow Ash is good" said one. "Yeah, not only is he cute but he is strong" said another. "I must say Ash," said Erika "you are an impressive trainer. But this gym battle is not over yet. Gloom go". A grass pokemon, with drool coming out of its mouth appeared.

Ash looked at the pokedex: Gloom, the weed pokemon. The evolved form of Oddish. It gives off a powerful aroma that can cause those to smell it to faint from two miles away.

Then Gloom sprayed its smell and Charmander got hit by the smell. Charmander fainted from the stench and Ash returned it. 'Oh boy," he thought 'this will be tough'. "Okay Flareon I choose you". His flareon was ready. "Use flamethrower" Flareon blew fire to Gloom and hurt it. "Quick Gloom, use petal dance" said Erika. A spiralling whirl of petals shot out of Gloom's petals and twirled towards Flareon. "Use fire spin Flareon" said Ash. A spiralling whirl of flames shot out of Flareon's mouth and burnt the petals and struck Gloom. Gloom couldn't stand another attack of flames and fainted. Ash had won.

Ash stroked Flareon's head. "Thank you Flareon" he said. Flareon loved being stroked. He saw Erika tending to her Gloom and went to see if everything was okay. "Oh don't worry," said Erika, with a smile, "Gloom will be all right. Ash you gave me an excellent battle. You're a good trainer". Ash blushed at that comment. "And so I give you the Rainbow Badge. The Rainbow Badge was the shape of a flower with eight rainbow coloured petals. "Thank you" said Ash, taking the badge.

After receiving the badge, Ash and his friends bid farewell to Erika and her assistances and left Celadon City.


Ash, Brock and Misty came to a city with skyscrapers and apartments. "Hey, where are we Brock?" asked Misty. Brock looked at the map. "It says that we are in Hop Hop Hop Town" he said. "Funny name for a town" said Ash. Then suddenly he stopped in his tracks and looked around him. "Is something wrong Ash?" asked Brock. "I'm sensing something weird in the air" said Ash "I don't know what, but something doesn't feel right in this city".

Just then they heard a woman shouting "Arnold!" They went to see what was wrong. The woman explained that her son Arnold was missing and had been missing for three whole days. "My son isn't the only one who's missing". She pointed to a wall that had a long row of pictures of children. "Those children have been missing for three days as well". 'I thought so,' thought Ash 'something is not right about this city'. He turned to the woman and thought about his mum. "Don't worry ma'am" he said to her "I'm sure Arnold will come home". The woman thanked Ash for the kind words and left.

"We need to sort this out," said Brock "children just disappearing like that seems all wrong". Ash and Misty agreed. "Split up and look for clues and ask people questions". So Ash, Brock and Misty split up and asked a lot of people if they had seen any of the missing children, but they hadn't. Then Ash saw an Officer Jenny and asked her if she had seen any of the missing children. "No I haven't," sighed Officer Jenny "and I've been looking for them these past three days. I don't suppose you've noticed anything have you young man?" Ash explained that he sensed something weird in the air earlier. "I don't know what though". "If you sense it again, please tell me at once" said Officer Jenny "I'm going to see Nurse Joy now, if you wish to join". Ash accepted.

Ash and Officer Jenny met with Brock and Misty in the pokemon center. They were asking Nurse Joy if she had seen the children, but she hadn't. The thing was Nurse Joy had her hands full; the pokemon in the pokemon center were acting strange. The pokemon in the pokemon center had been very weak and worn out for three days. Both Oddish and Cubone looked like their energy had been drained. Magikarp, that is always full of life, looked like it had died. A Charmander's flame looked like it would go out any minute. "And this one has been in terrible shape" said Nurse Joy. She was holding a Psyduck in her arms. "And these pokemon have been like this for three whole days?" asked Officer Jenny. "Yes" said Nurse Joy worriedly. Then Ash had an idea. He sat crossed legged on the floor, put his hands together and closed his eyes. "Uh what are you doing Ash?" asked Misty. "You remember the psychic journal Sabrina gave me?" said Ash "well I've been studying it every day. I have the feeling that the strange thing I felt earlier is some sort of psychic wave. And the journal showed me how psychics sense psychic waves. So I'm trying to find out". Ash closed his eyes and concentrated. Then he opened his eyes at once. "I'm right, I sense psychic waves about. And I think it's the cause of the missing children and sleeping pokemon." Just then Pikachu felt weary and fell asleep. "Oh no," said Brock "Pikachu has been hit by the waves now". "We need to sort this out now," said Officer Jenny. She pulled out a device from her pocket. "This will pick up the psychic waves and lead us to where it's coming from. We must go at once."

Thanks to Officer Jenny's device, the psychic waves seemed to be coming from a huge mansion, on top of a skyscraper. "The psychic waves are stronger now," said Ash "so our answer is in here". He and Brock opened the doors. Inside was lots of people and it seemed a party was going on in the mansion. "Please excuse us for intruding," said Ash "is the owner of the mansion here?" A smart looking gentleman walked up to him. "I'm the owner," he said "can I help you?" Officer Jenny explained to him that they had picked up psychic waves from here. "Ah does would be from our pokemon Drowzee and Hypno" said the gentleman. He pointed to two pokemon sitting on two chairs.

Ash pulled out his pokedex to see: Drowzee, the hypnosis pokemon. It can tell what people are dreaming by sniffing with its big nose. It loves to eat dreams. Hypno, the hypnosis pokemon. The evolved form of Drowzee. Seeing its swinging pendulum can induce sleep in three seconds, even in someone who just woke up.

"So Drowzee evolves into Hypno huh?" said Brock. "That's right," said the gentleman "and one of our Drowzee evolved three days ago". Officer Jenny and the gang were surprised at this. The gentleman explained that he and his friends suffer from insomnia, and that made it hard for them to sleep. "But now thanks to our new Hypno and its hypnotism we can finally sleep". "I'm glad for you," said Ash "but I think your Hypno's hypnotism is causing trouble around the city". Officer Jenny explained that three days ago children went missing and pokemon became really weak. "Oh dear," said the gentleman "could Hypno have caused that?"

Just then Misty got hypnotised by Hypno and began acting like a Seel. Just as Ash was going to ask her if she's okay, Misty ran out the door. Ash, Brock, Officer Jenny and the gentleman followed her all the way to Hop Hop Hop Town's park. When they got there, they had a big surprise. All the missing children were there, as well as Misty, but they were acting like pokemon. "Why are they acting like this?" asked Ash, watching a boy act like a Bulbasaur. "Pokemonitis," said Brock "the psychic waves from Hypno had made them think that they are pokemon". "And I bet those waves zapped the pokemon's energy, which is why they are really weak" said Ash. The gentleman looked at the kids. "How could this have happened?" he said. "Well this is why you have to be careful when using psychic pokemon," said Ash "a psychic pokemon's power can be dangerous sometimes. Thing is what should we do about this?" "I know," said the gentleman "we can use Drowzee".

They took Misty back to the mansion and Drowzee's power did cure Misty. "What happened?" asked Misty. She didn't remember anything. "You got hypnotised by Hypno," said Ash "and it made you act like a Seel". Misty felt embarrassed, but was glad to be back to normanl. Then they took Drowzee to the park and Drowzee stopped the children from acting like pokemon. The children went home right away and the woman, the gang met earlier, was reunited with Arnold at last. Then finally Drowzee woke the pokemon and Pikachu, in the pokemon center, up. "Thank goodness that's over with" said Ash. Nurse Joy was happy that the pokemon were all right and Ash was happy that Pikachu was okay. "I better just stick to sleeping pills from now on" said the gentleman "I'd hate to have this happen again". Then he and Drowzee went home.

Ash, Brock and Misty were about to leave too, but Nurse Joy turned to them. She was holding the Psyduck in her arms. "This Psyduck is still in bad shape a bit". Ash smiled, he knew that Psyduck always suffered from headaches. He walked over to Nurse Joy. "Leave Psyduck with me," he said "I know exactly how to help it". So Ash caught a Psyduck for himself. "Why did you decide to keep that Psyduck?" asked Misty. "Well," said Ash "one, Psyduck can be strong creatures and two; I would like to have a Golduck on my team". So they left the center and continued on their journey.


Right now Ash, Brock and Misty were now walking down a street called Scissor Street. Brock wanted to visit it. "So why are we here Brock?" asked Ash. Brock wasn't listening; he was just staring at the stores on Scissor Street. "I know why," said Misty "Scissor Street is a name for Breeder's Lane". "Oh," said Ash "but didn't Brock want to be a pokemon doctor though?" "He does," said Misty "but sometimes a breeder's technique can be useful, if you want to be a pokemon doctor".

While they were walking down the street, Ash saw a lot of beauty parlors. And he noticed that some pokemon were looking a bit stylish, with makeup. Misty thought they looked cute, but Ash didn't. He thought all pokemon would look cute without any makeup or accessories on. Then Misty saw something that made her squeal; "How Cute!" In the window it was an Ekans wearing a pink and yellow dress, with decorations on, and a green ribbon. There was also a Koffing, wearing a yellow frilly tutu, a ton of makeup and an orange ribbon. "Okay, is that a pokemon or a Christmas tree?" whispered Brock to Ash. Ash felt sick to the stomach; to him this was totally wrong. A woman came out of a beauty salon and her Dodrio and Riachu had the most disgusting makeover Ash had ever seen. Raichu and Dodrio didn't like their makeover either. They had too much makeup on and Dodrio's hairstyles looked awful.

Misty was about to queue up for the salon when Brock rushed to another salon shop. It was run by a woman named Suzy and she did massages for pokemon. "This is the one I'm looking for" he said. Inside a woman, with long hair, was massaging a Chansey. Chansey looked gorgeous after a good massage, then its trainer picked it up, paid Suzy and left. "Can I help you?" asked Suzy. "Well we are just looking around," said Ash "but I am interest of having one of my pokemon massaged". "Of course," smiled Suzy "just tell me anytime when you want your pokemon massaged".

Misty saw something that caught her eye. A Vulpix was fast asleep in the middle of the salon. Ash smiled and thought about his Vulpix. Misty picked up vulpix, exclaiming how cute and beautiful it was. But Vulpix blew fire into Misty's face. "I do apologize for that," apologized Suzy "but Vulpix doesn't like to be picked up by strangers". Ash asked Brock why they were here. Brock explained that Suzy was quite famous in the pokemon breeding world, winning awards for four years straight. Her Vulpix had won awards as well. Ash was amazed and understood that Brock could learn something from a great pokemon breeder.

The gang had tea with Suzy. Misty asked Suzy about the beauty salon they had seen earlier. "That's beauty salon is brand new," said Suzy "but the owners of that salon only think about how pokemon should look on the outside. And it's making trainers forget about what's on the inside". "It thought it was all tacky" said Ash "besides a pokemon's true beauty is found within, like its strength. Anyway showing off your looks is not important". Misty raised an eyebrow. "But some pokemon like to show off" she said. She stared at Pikachu and imagined it wearing a dress and a little bit of makeup. Ash snapped her out of her fantasy. "Forget it Misty," he said "you are not putting any makeup on my pokemon. Have it on one of your own pokemon". "Okay I will" said Misty. She took out her Oddish. "Come on Oddish we are going to get a makeover". And she left the salon, with Oddish.

Suzy began having doubts about her massages. "Maybe I should change my methods" she said. "No way," said Brock "your methods are fine. We just need to give an audience a demonstration of your massages and what they do for pokemon". "I agree and we will help you" said Ash. Suzy was grateful and thanked Ash and Brock. They gave a demo on the street. Ash helped Suzy with massaging Pikachu, while Brock spoke through the microphone. The crowds were amazed by Suzy's massaging; Pikachu looked adorable without any makeup on. "As you can see," said Brock "this Pikachu, being massaged, has become cuter than ever". The people looked at their make upped pokemon and sighed.

Meanwhile Misty and Oddish were in the salon. The owners gave Misty a makeover first, even though Misty said they needed to do Oddish. "Wow how cute!" exclaimed Misty, liking the new hairstyle and clothes. Then the owners put makeup on her, but Misty started to look weird. Just then Meowth came in and spoke. When Misty heard the Meowth spoke she realized that Team Rocket was running the salon. She tried to escape, but Tem Rocket tied her up to a chair. "The other twerps will come for her," said James. "And once they do we nab their pokemon" said Jessie. Misty called out to her Oddish, but Oddish was nowhere to be seen.

Oddish had seen everything and had gone for help. She ran to where Ash and Brock were and spoke to them. "I think Misty is in trouble" said Ash. He, Brock and Suzy followed Oddish to where Misty was. They saw Team Rocket and saw Misty tied up in the chair. Misty's makeup made her look funny, but Ash and Brock didn't laugh. They knew this was no time for teasing. "Let Misty go!" shouted Ash. "Oh we'll let her go," said Jessie "but you have to hand over your pokemon". "No way," said Ash "let's go Pikachu". "Go Geodude" said Brock. Jessie and James sent out Ekans and Koffing, who were still wearing the dresses and make up. "Geodude use tackle on Koffing" said Brock. Koffing tried to fight back with sludge, but the makeup and dress slowed it down, so Geodude's tackle worked. Pikachu shot thunderbolt at Ekans. Ekans tried to run away, but the makeup and dress got in the way too. So Ekans ended up being zapped by thunderbolt. "Let's finish this" said Ash. "Wait," said Suzy "I'll finish this. Vulpix fire spin". Vulpix's fire spin created a firey cyclone, which not only blasted Team Rocket away, but destroyed the fake salon. The people, who saw everything, were amazed by that. "There you see everyone," shouted Brock "the makeup and clothing not only ruined Ekans and Koffing's image, but made them unable to battle properly". Everyone knew Brock was right and took all the makeup and accessories off their pokemon. As for Misty, Oddish set her free by cutting the rope with her razor leaf.

After everyone was all back to normal, the gang got ready to leave Scissor Street. "I can't thank you enough," said Suzy "you helped me regain my confidence and you help me proof about a pokemon's true beauty". "We are glad that we were able to help you" said Ash. "Brock," said Suzy "through your Geodude I can see that you raise and train your pokemon really well". "Thank you," said Brock "I must ask though, what are you going to do now?" "Well I've decided to travel and learn more about pokemon," said Suzy "oh and Brock". She picked up her Vulpix. "Will you take Vulpix with you?" Brock was puzzled. "You see," said Suzy "I believe you will raise Vulpix better than I did. So will you do it?" Brock was touched and accepted and was happy to receive Vulpix. Ash and Misty were moved to tears about what just happened. Ash still thought that Misty's makeup was funny, but still didn't say anything.

So, with Vulpix in tow, Brock and his friends left Scissor Street.


I know Oddish can only learn razor leaf from breeding, but since they did the same thing for Brock's Ludicolo I decided to give Oddish an egg move like razor leaf. It will only have razor leaf. I'm not having Brock all goofy around beautiful girls like in the anime. I thought Brock looked silly like that. I decided to have Ash that the psyduck and give Erika more grass pokemon.
