Chapter 21

"Go, go, go," Soleil chanted. She and Drake had a hand held radio in between their heads. Her favorite hockey team, the Hoenn Overheat, was playing the Kanto Twisters. Drake's favorite sport was basketball, but he was passionate about Kanto sports so he always rooted for them. They were listening to the game via Soleil's radio while they walked through the cave.

"Nope. This guy can't make it past the Twister's goalie," Drake snickered. Tony and Montana could hear the radio announcer from where they were walking, feet behind the sports nuts.

"How do they not trip," Tony asked. Montana shrugged and rolled her eyes.

"How could you encourage that behavior, Soleil? Don't you find it annoying?" Montana lectured.

"Not now," Soleil hushed. The radio began to make awful noises.

"No!" Drake shrieked. He twisted the antenna, but to no avail.

"We lost it," Soleil sighed. "Oh well. Overheat would have one."

"Whatever!" Drake argued. "It was tied!"

"Still. Overheat have better offensive people that could pull it out," Soleil countered.

"I guess we will never know," Montana interrupted, ending the pointless argument. She rolled her eyes again. In mid roll, she caught a Pokemon in the corner of her eye. She threw her Oddish's Pokeball towards the Pokemon and scared it, forcing it to runaway.

"Oddish, use Stun Spore!" Montana yelled. "I am not losing this Azurill!" A small blue mouse like Pokemon with no arms and a long bouncy tail ran away from Oddish's Stun Spore.

"Rill!" Azurill cried for help.

"Calm it down so we don't get ambushed!" Drake warned. Oddish took the warning and issued a Sweet Cent in the air. Azurill caught on to the smell and stopped running.

"Absorb!" Montana yelled. Oddish's leaves glowed green as energy began to flow from Azurill into Oddish.

"Go, Pokeball!" The Pokeball hit Azurill right in the face.

"I bet that hurt," Tony commented. The ball succumbed the Azurill and caught the Pokemon with little to no struggle.

"I caught an Azurill!" Montana cheered. Oddish jumped for joy as he ran back to his trainer.

"Good catch," Soleil commented.

"Thanks," Tana said. "Speaking of catching, are you ever going to officially catch Squirtle?"

"Not until it wants me too," Soleil chuckled as the Squirtle smiled on her shoulder.

"This place is really creepy," Drake said as the girls chatted. Tony held his Togepi in his arms.

"Thanks for giving me Mud-slap," Tony whispered. "Togepi uses it well."

"No prob. Phanphy learns plenty of Ground moves," Drake commented.

"We need to get going. This cave is full of trainers," Soleil added as she and Tana walked back. Drake led the way and the group continued their track through the cave.


"Are we freaking lost?" Montana whined. She sat down on a boulder. Soleil and Tony followed her lead and sat down on two matching boulders.

"No," Drake sighed. "Zubat, I need you!" His Zubat flew out of the Pokeball and circled over him. "Can you lead us out of here?" Zubat giggled and tried to fly away, but Drake intercepted her with his Pokeball and recalled her.

"I guess not," Drake grunted. He pulled out his PokeDex map and studied it.

"Do these rocks seem like they are moving?" Soleil questioned. The rocks burst from underneath them. The trainers were thrown to the floor. Drake turned around to see three Geodude hovering over his friends. A four armed bipedal boulder accompanied the Geodude.

"Grav!" The Pokemon screeched.

"A Graveler…" Tony stuttered. The Graveler rose up the two top arms, giving the Geodude a signal. The Rock types charged the three trainers who offended them. Graveler rolled into one boulder and took towards Drake.

"Squirtle, use Water Gun to blast that Geodude away!" Squirtle leapt into the air, using Water Gun. Her Geodude smashed into the cave wall.

"Good!" She turned around to see Tony take a punch in the back from his Geodude.

"Togepi, release one of them," Tony pleaded as he curled into the fetal position to protect his little Togepi. Togepi squeaked with fear as he pushed the button on the Pokeball. The ball exploded with light and Seel glared at the Geodude.

"Seel, use Icy Wind to blow it away," Tony ordered. Seel released a powerful wind that blew Geodude away from the group.

"Espeon, use Confusion!" Montana ordered. Her Espeon controlled the Rock type and tossed it away before it could do any harm.

"That Graveler is heading for Drake!" Montana shouted. The three trainers ran behind the Graveler's trail, seeing the Graveler being thrown into the air by a stream of water.

"Dile!" Totodile cheered as he saw the Graveler run away.

"Why do wild Pokemon always attack us?" Tony sighed. He grabbed Togepi and hugged Seel.

"Maybe we are annoying," Soleil joked.

"I would say that," Drake added. The group shared a laugh before finding the right path.


"Phanphy, chase down that Dunsparce," Drake ordered. His Phanphy rolled into a ball and tried to cut the Normal type off, but Dunsparce dug into the ground with its tail.

"Dang. That would have been a cool Pokemon to have," Drake grunted. His Phanphy panted as he walked back to Drake. "You did well, buddy. That thing was just too fast and witty." Phanphy smiled widely as he was recalled back into the Pokeball. All of Drake's team had taken a few hits during the trek of the cave and needed rest.

"Drake, do you feel that shaking?" Tony asked. Tana looked up to see the stalagmites moving.

"Maybe its Spade," Soleil commented. Suddenly, an Onix erupted from the side of the cave wall and roared loudly. Beside it, the three Geodude and the Graveler glared at the trainer.

"Awesome," Drake joked, "They brought friends." He released his Totodile once more as Squirtle jumped in front of Soleil. Montana released Oddish, and Tony tried to release his Seel again but Togepi jumped from his arms, putting up his fist.

"Nix!" Onix swished his tail forward, sending boulders flying towards the group.

"Water Gun!" Soleil and Drake ordered in unison. Their Water Pokemon blasted the boulders out of the air with their streams of water. The Geodude charged them as Onix attacked.

"Mud-slap to blind them!" Tony yelled. Togepi began to flick mud into the air, stopping the Geodude.

Graveler grunted and rolled at the Egg Pokemon. "Espeon, use Iron Tail!" Espeon ran at Graveler from the side and smashed her steel tail into the Rock type. Graveler flew into a boulder and slid to the ground.

"Drake," a familiar voice yelled, "Let me handle that Onix!" Kellin ran in front of the Water Guns and released a stoic looking bird Pokemon covered in steel.

"Skar!" The Skarmory screeched loudly. The four trainers met behind Kellin, witnessing Drake's rival attempt to capture the Onix.

Onix screeched loudly, but the Steel type didn't flinch. "Use Steel Wing!" Skarmory flew to the roof of the cave with a hardening wing. She smashed into Onix multiple times. Onix threw its body into her, sending her back down.

"That Onix knows some powerful moves," Soleil commented.

"Fury Attack," Kellin ordered. Skarmory used her speed against the large and slow Onix. The Rock type couldn't pinpoint Skarmory, eventually falling to the continuous hits.

"Pokeball!" Kellin tossed a Pokeball onto Onix, capturing the Pokemon.

"That was impressive," Drake said. "I bet I could have captured it too."

"From my point of view, it looked like you and your friend were having trouble," Kellin snorted.

"We were not," Soleil defended.

"Not trying to be mean, but yes you were," Kellin argued.

"I agree," another voice interrupted. Coleman Blue walked up from behind Montana and Tony. "You were struggling against that Onix."

"Coleman, just get outta here," Drake sighed.

"What's the matter, Drakey Boy?" His rival antagonized. "Don't wanna lose again?"

"My Pokemon are too tired to waste their breath on you," Drake snarled.

"Why don't I battle you?" Kellin offered. Drake looked at him confusedly.

"You?" Coleman asked. "Sure. If Drake is gonna be a baby, I guess I'll settle for you."

"Four on Four," Kellin said. "Drake, referee." Drake put up his hands and declared the match.

"Larvitar," Coleman called out. His Larvitar popped out of the ball and glared at Drake and Kellin.

"Fine then," Kellin smirked. "Larvitar, take stance!" His own Larvitar popped out of his ball and took a battle stance.

"Larvitar, use Chip Away!" Coleman shouted. His Larvitar rushed the opposing one and struck many times.

"Fight back with Dig," Kellin ordered. His Larvitar dove underground and came up behind Coleman's Larvitar quickly. The Larvitar struck each other in the face, sending each other back.

"They are equal power," Montana commented. The two Larvitar lunged at each other once more. The two were having a battle of pride.

"Larvitar, use Rock Slide," Coleman ordered.

"Bite!" Kellin shouted. Larvitar smashed a boulder in the air, sending the remains sliding at the attacking Larvitar. Kellin's Larvitar powered through the Rock Slide and bit onto Larvitar's tail. The two Rock types fell to the ground, unconscious when the dust scattered.

"They are both out!" Drake decreed.

"Houndour, go!" Coleman screeched. A black dog with bone like skull and back appeared on the field. The Pokemon barked at the new trainers.

"Phanphy," Kellin said. His Phanphy popped out of his Pokeball.

"Another weak Phanphy," Coleman grunted.

"Rollout!" Kellin yelled. His Phanphy grunted back and rolled into a ball, rushing Houndour.

"Ember to throw him off," Coleman ordered. Houndour fired several small flames at the Ground type, but he pushed through and smacked into the Fire type.

"Mud-slap, now," Kellin commanded angrily. He couldn't stand people calling his Pokemon weak. "Prove yourself!" Phanphy dug deep down into his power and flicked a huge blob of mud at Houndour. The Fire type tried to dodge, but the Mud-slap was too big. Houndour fell to the ground with swirled eyes.

"Phanphy is the winner!"

"Return," Coleman sighed. "Water will beat you. Wooper!" A small bipedal Pokemon with no arms took the cave floor. He had whisker like things sticking out from his oval shaped head.

"Phanphy, come back. Croconaw, crunch time," Kellin countered. He released a powerful looking crocodile Pokemon that looked like Totodile with a chubbier build.

"Croc!" The Water type snapped. Wooper back down, but Coleman pushed him forward.

"Wooper, use Mud Bomb!" Wooper jumped in the air to release a blob of bomb.

"Croconaw, use Rage and Ice Fang," Kellin ordered. Croconaw's face reddened, building up anger. He smashed through the Mud Bomb, and bit into Wooper with a freezing fang. "Throw him!" Croconaw whipped back as he threw the opposing Water type ferociously. Wooper hit the ground knocked out.

"And Wooper is done too!" Drake yelled. "It is three to one in Kellin's favor!"

"Fine then. This guy was only here for some special training, but here goes nothing," Coleman said. His Pokeball released his powerful Venusaur.

"Woah," Tony awed.

"You want to fight big huh?" Kellin asked. "Emboar!"

"Uh oh," Drake whispered. Kellin's Emboar took the field with power, standing over everyone.

"Venusaur, use the Sunny Day and Solarbeam combo!" Coleman ordered. Venusaur released a sphere of energy that floated into the sky. Venusaur quickly blasted a Solarbeam that smashed into Emboar's chest.

"Shake it off, and use a quick and powerful Flame Crash!" Kellin shouted. Emboar covered himself in flames and rose to the sky. Venusaur fired several Solarbeams, but Emboar dodged them. Emboar crashed into Venusaur, sending the Grass type on his back.

"No!" Coleman cried.

"Finish with Flamethrower," Kellin said. Emboar released a stream of flame from his nostrils that picked up Venusaur and slammed him into the cave wall.

"Return," Coleman sighed again. "You win." Coleman rolled his eyes and walked off into the darkness of the cave.

"That was intense," Drake complimented.

"Thanks," Kellin said before walking off as well. Drake's group looked at each other.

"Should we get out of here or what?" Drake laughed. They walked towards the hopeful exit of Union Cave.
