Day Four- 12:00 P.M. Location: Route 14.

Flash and Nan passed through a barrier as they exited the city, causing them to return to normal. Their armor and keyblades disappeared and their regular clothes and pokeballs returned. The fifth gym badges appeared in the badge cases of all the group members. Peanut appeared next to them.

"As long as we stay out of Lumiose, it appears that we'll be fine." Peanut sighed in relief.

"There they are!" Nan exclaimed. They found Toxic and Shadow sitting next to the unconscious twins. Alicia and Alexis had also reverted to normal.

"Toxic!" Flash greeted.

"Oh, hey Flash!" Toxic looked up. "These two came falling from the sky... I was a bit worried. Glad you're all okay, though!"

"Sorry to keep you waiting so long." Flash said.

"It's only been an hour." Toxic blinked. "Pretty fast navigation for a big city..."

"Only an hour?!" Flash gasped.

"There's just no way! We were in there forever!" Nan exclaimed.

"It appears that time flows differently in the smash dimension and this dimension." Shadow informed.

"Then we should run into more of these! This saves time a ton!" Flash grinned widely.

"Let's not... Kinda dangerous." Toxic sweatdropped.

"Ugh..." Alicia and Alexis groaned and sat up. "The fuck was that?"

"I beat you up because you keep spamming stopza." Flash informed. "Now let's get going!"

"Hey guys!" A voice suddenly cut in. Foxfire walked over, waving cheerfully.

"Fox!" Nan grinned.

"Hey Foxeh!" Toxic greeted cheerfully.

"What are you doing here?" Flash wondered.

"I'm gonna investigate this haunted house thing on this route!" Foxfire explained.

"Oooooooooooooooooooh, I love those!" Toxic immediately said, grinning. "Let's check it out with him!"

"Bruh. I ain't afraid of no ghosts!" Alicia declared.

"Sounds fun." Nan grinned.

"Let's go!" Foxfire grinned. The group cheered and went off. Flash followed with a frown.

Day Four- 12:30 P.M. Location: Scary House.

"It sure looks haunted." Nan noted as the group entered the house.

"Just keep looking..." Foxfire murmured as they reached a man.

"Welcome to the scary house. Would you like to hear a scary story?" The man asked.

"Yes." Foxfire nodded.

"It was a dark and stormy night many years ago. Lost, I arrived at this house and went inside. The lights would not turn on, so I fearfully looked around the house. Eventually, I made my way into the kitchen. There was no sign of anyone being there... I found the fridge, and when I opened it, a faint light leaked out. I could finally make out my surroundings. And I saw the faint outline of a man huddling in the corner of the room. I tried to tell him that I was lost and I was hoping he'd let me stay until morning, but when I approached him... The man suddenly screamed, "Stay back!" I apologized and continued to plead my case. "Please, can't you help me?" "I'm not talking to you!" he shouted. I looked at the man in surprise. When I did this, the man asked me... "Can't you see them? Behind you!"

"A horde of faceless men!""

"..." The whole group stared at him. The man cleared his throat.

"That will be 5000 poke."

"You're charging us for a boring story?!" Flash yelled incredulously.

"Here." Foxfire gave him the money and the group left.

Day Four- 12:40 P.M. Location: Route 14.

"Aw man... I thought that was gonna be cool..." Fox sulked.

"Don't worry." Flash smirked smugly. "You can come with us to the sixth gym!"

"Yeah... I'd like that." Foxfire grinned.

"Let's go!" Flash hurriedly led the group off.

Day Four- 1:00 P.M. Location: Laverre Gym.

"This place looks like a doll house! Which is freaky at all..." Nan muttered as they entered the gym.

"Welcome to the Laverre gym. Are you all challengers?" Valerie questioned.

"Whoa! This is the animest gym leader yet!" Nan yelped.

"Yes. I'll be challenging first." Flash said, stepping forward.

"Hey! When did we decide that?!" Nan yelled.

"Flash got there first, so he goes first! Fox goes second since he's a guest! The rest of the order will be from our current scores!" Peanut said cheerfully.

"Let's go." Flash sent in Peanut as Valerie sent in Mawhile. "My team lacks any fire, steel, and poison types, so this could be hard..."

"Faint attack!" Valerie ordered. Mawhile dashed forward.

"Dodge with dig!" Flash ordered. Peanut dug down, evading the attack. Then he popped up and struck Mawhile very hard, fainting her in one hit with the super effective attack.

"Impressively powerful." Valerie said and sent in Mr. Mime. Mr. Mime used psychic to throw Peanut around and slam him into the ground. He then followed up with a dazzling gleam. Peanut managed to stand and counter with a shadow ball. Mr. Mime used light screen to lower the damage. Mr. Mime began to unleash a lot of dazzling gleams which Peanut dodged and countered with shadow ball. Peanut got close, but Mr. Mime then used an up close dazzling gleam. In the bright flash of light, Peanut used dog and then popped up behind Mr. Mime to knock it out with a shadow claw.

"Good job Peanut!" Flash grinned and picked up his Pokemon. "You deserve a rest." He sent in Gardevoir to deal with the final Pokemon, Sylveon.

Sylveon used quick attack to strike first, then lowered Gardevoir's attack with charm. Gardevoir wasn't amused by this and slammed her around with psychic. Sylveon used dazzling gleam, but Gardevoir countered easily with thunder. Sylveon used quick attack to strike a few times before Gardevoir got in another thunder. The two the struck each other with slash and quick attack, tying the match. Flash still had two Pokemon left, though. He grinned as he retrieved his new badge.

"I'm up now!" Foxfire grinned, sending in Porygon2 against Mawhile. Porygon2 unleashed a tri attack, badly damaging Mawhile. Mawhile struck with a few faint attacks at top speed, weakening Porygon2. The data Pokemon finished Mawhile off with a tri attack.

Mr. Mime managed to defeat Porygon2 with a dazzling gleam.

Scizor was sent in next. He defeated both Mr. Mime and Sylveon with a few quick metal claws, winning Foxfire the badge.

"Bruh. I'm up." Alicia cracked her knuckles. Fennekin came out to face Mawhile. The steel type struck multiple times with faint attack, but Fennekin held on strong. The little fire fox defeated Mawhile with a flamethrower and a flame wheel.

Mr. Mime came out and immediately began a brutal beatdown on Fennekin using psychic. The fire fox held on and used flamethrower on him, but was ultimately defeated by a dazzling gleam. Mr. Mime set up a light screen.

Spewpa came in next. She used string shot, but Mr. Mime kept destroying it with psychic. Mr. Mime dragged her in with the next string and hit with dazzling gleam. Spewpa used tackle to damage Mr. Mime. Spewpa then fell to a dazzling gleam.

Down to her last Pokemon, Alicia sent out Pikachu. Pikachu downed Mr. Mime with a thunderbolt.

Sylveon came out last. The two opponents glared at each other and began hitting each other with quick attacks. They sustained a lot of damage before jumping back. Sylveon used dazzling gleam, but Pikachu beat her with a thunderbolt.

"Now me!" Nan brought out Charizard. Charizard brought down Mawhile with a flamethrower and the other two Pokemon with metal claw, receiving the badge for Nan.

"Let's go!" Toxic cheered and brought in Shadow. Shadow copied Peanut's strategy to defeat Mawhile and Mr. Mime before switching to Deddenne.

"Nuzzle!" Toxic shouted. Deddenne zapped Sylveon over and over with the attack. Sylveon retaliated with swift, but ultimately it was just no match to the little electric mouse.

Alexis sent out Torchic first. Torchic expertly dodged Mawhile's attacks and defeated her with flamethrower.

Mr. Mime threw Torchic around with psychic, but the little fire bird stood strong. She ran and attacked with peck, but Mr. Mime threw up a reflect. Torchic was knocked back by a dazzling gleam, then attacked with flamethrower. Mr. Mime pounded Torchic with dazzling gleams, but Torchic managed to score a final flamethrower to knock Mr. Mime out.

Sylveon smirked at the exhausted Torchic. She struck with quick attack then finished her with dazzling gleam.

Alexis glared and sent in Bellosom. The Pokemon quickly finished Sylveon with a few acids.

"Alright, we all won!" Flash grinned. "Let's keep going! Just two more badges to go!"
