Chapter 14

This the beginning of another adventure for Team Starlight as the expedition draws nearer. Inside the team room, Team Starlight is still sleeping but it won't be for long.
"Rise and shine little Explorers!" said a voice from the door. Everyone got up except for 1 small pokemon. She is the youngest of the group and have brown and creamy vanilla coat and her name is Eevee. Below her part of the bunk bed was Chikorita whom was getting up.
"Eevee! Rise and shine!" said Chikorita. Eevee slowly woke up. When they finished cleaning up, they all met in the waiting room. Charmander was given a few items during the leaders' meeting.
"Ok team lets have a look at where are we going to explore!" said Charmander as he lay out a map and some pointers. The map shows the entire village of TwinLeaf and nearby forests and mountains. Charmader set pointers at 2 locations.
"Ok the blue pointer is our Expedition objective and the red point is our current position" explained Charmander and he set down 3 other yellow pointer.
"The yellow pointer is where we can set up camp if it gets dark."
"This Expedition is really a test to see if any of us have any exploration potential" Eevee raised her front right paw.
"Yes Eevee?"
"Whats Exploration Potential?"
"That is something we call if you have talent in exploring like all the Exploration teams in Treasure town." After being dismissed from the breifing, they went down to have some pokebread and oran juice. Clefairy suddenly came over and asked speak to all first year olds. Eevee parted with her team and went to meet with Clefairy like a few others.
"As you know the expedition is really energy-draining and difficult and i am asking your parents if you are allow to go..." said Clefairy. "For some of you whom your parents does not allow, you may not take part in the expedition." Eevee wondred what Pikachu will say as he is her Guardian. As they are dismissed, Clefairy called Eevee over.
"Look Eevee i spoke with Pikachu..." said Clefaiy. "He knows no matter what he said you are most determined to go the expedition so he is letting you make the choice." Eevee's insides danced but managed to listen to Clefairy.
"Given how difficult the Expedition can become... Are you sure you can handle it?"
"I think i can handle it, Clefairy"
"Alright then... you dismissed." Eevee suddenly felt a sudden chill but decided to ignore it and went back to join her team. Charmander was waiting for Eevee aloneby the table..
"Where did the others go?" asked Eevee. Charmander merely pointed but he wanted to talk to Eevee.
"Well about the Expedition..." said Charmander. "You sure you can handle?" Eevee was starting to doubt her abilities. Charmander and Eevee went to join the others in a few games. Eevee asked Clefairy yesterday about the move Heal Bell. That move requires her to be at least 5 years old or she could not handle the power so she decide to wait for the right time of age. Eevee did a little research on the type of move she can use so shecan be more useful and found 1 that is very useful and she secrety learned it. Eevee was playing with her friend with a soccer ball.
"Eevee what are doing in the library and backyard a few day back?" asked Chkorita as she passed the ball to Eevee. Eevee used Iron Tail to pass it to Bulbasuar.
"I was trying out something new." replied Eevee but Chikorita wasn't fooled easily.
"But i think it was a move..." said Chikorita but Eevee didn't reply as she got the ball and she used her tail to pass the ball to Charmander. Chikorita was not going to give up so easily so she challenge Eevee to a battle. Eevee accepted and the rest of the team cleared the field and Chikorita used Razor Leaf to start the battle. Eevee jumped up and dodged but Chikorita was ready for the dodge and used Petal Dance. Eevee Used Iron Tail and knocked away the petal dance attack and landed gracefully. Chikorita decided to use vine whip but Eevee used Dig and evaded the vine whip. Chikorita isn't going to be attacked by sneak attack so she decided to use Leaf Whistle but Eevee is underground and was unable to hear the Leaf Whistle so Chikorita got hit by the Dig attack. Chikorita used Sweet Scent and Eevee was in trace by the smell. Chikorita Tackled Eevee and sent her flying and landing on her face. Eevee got up but very unstable. Charmander was getting worried but decided to butt out.
"Eevee... If you cannot defeat me!" announced Chikorita. "Then you are not allowed to go for the Expedition!" Eevee used Shadow ball and Chikorita used her new attack, Energy ball. Both orbs hit and exploded giving damage to both sides. Chikorita managed to grab Eevee with Vine Whip. Eevee used Shadow Ball to counter the petal dance sent by Chikorita. Eevee had to used the move but she had no choice. Eevee used Perish Song and Chikorita got affected. Chikorita had 3 moves left before Eevee's Perish song kicks in. Charmander was impressed as he watched the battle.
Eevee managed to get free of Chikorita's Vine Whip and used Shadow Ball. Chikorite counted with Energy Ball and both sides got hurt. Eevee's Health was getting low so Eevee used Wish. Chikorita quickly used Razor Leaf and Eevee jumped up and Wish Kicked in and restored Eevee. Eevee decided that Chikorita is so powerful and Perish song is going to kick soon so she used Dig and hid underground. Helpless Chikorita used Energy Ball into the hole Eevee went into and it hit its mark and Chikorita fainted due to Eevee's Perish Song and then Eevee burst out of the hole and landed painfully. Eevee struggled to get up and then she fainted too. The Battle ended in a tie and the rest of the group came over and gave each of them revival herds and Sitrus berries. Eevee was given a approval by Chikorita but Charmander wasn't sure so he challenged Eevee. Eevee was a little anxious about fighting Charmander. Charmander used Fire Spin first to encase Eevee in a vortex. Eevee used dig to evade and tackled Charmander from behind but Charmander recovered and used Metal Claw. Eevee was slamed into the earth. Eevee used Shadow Ball and Charmander used Ember to evade. Eevee took the chance to use Perish Song. Charmander knew he had a limited time before Perish Song kicks in so he used his Blaze and Tackled Eevee straight. Eevee was struggling to get up when Charmander used Fire Spin and Eevee find herself encased in a vortex as Charmander charge up for a Flame Wheel. Eevee decided to use the attack she found and her body began to glow in white.
"HIDDEN POWER!" as whirls of white power orbited Eevee was charged up and sent. Charmander was sent backwards with the power of Hidden Power. Charmander was barely Standing and Perish Song kicked in and Charmander fainted. Eevee got some burns from Charmander's attack but still standing but barely. The group came over to help Charmander. Eevee was barely standing and finally she collasped. Eevee was given Sitrus berries and she recovered. Charmander gave his approval so Eevee is allowed to go without any doubts. Eevee was tired out from using Hidden Power. Eevee was brushing her fur by the backyard tree with the company of Chikorita and Charmander when Misdreavus decided to come by.
"Looks like the fur ball isn't going for the Expedition isn't she" laughed Misdreavus.
"Oh but i am!" said Eevee getting up. Misdreavus used Night Shade but Eevee was ready for her.
"Hidden Power!" and Eevee sent a ring of power and it hit Misdreavus with a great amount of force that she fainted. Clefairy was watching from a corner.
"Whats going on here?" said Clefairy. Seviper and Gastly began to make up some stories and Clefairy asked Charmander whom gave what he saw. Misdreavus was sent to her Team room while Eevee was given an hour of lecturing. When Eevee came out of the classroom after her lecture, she was greeted by her team. Eevee was banned from using any attack moves for a week and she was told that anymore mischief and Pikachu will be informed and Eevee is not allow to go to the Expedition.
