This is -Pokedex talking


Chapter 21

Power Knows Not


-1 Week Later-

Over the last week was the longest time of my life. Zorua, just as the pokedex said, loved to play tricks on me and on the others. He was similar to Luke's Zorua in many ways. Ugh...

Now I was flying over the forest on Flygon, almost to Route 5 and I knew I was going to once again meet Ash, Cilan and Iris. After flying for another hour or so I landed on the ground when I saw a fair that was going on, hopping off of Flygon and gave him some berries as thanks before calling him back to his ball. Stretching my arms in the air, I sighed and looked around as some people gave me a stare then went on with their business. As usual, Snivy, who did not like his pokeball, got out but himself and jumped into my arms where he liked to be.

I grinned seeing all of the food stands and right on cue, my stomach grumbled to show it was hungry.

Snivy glanced around in my arms, "So much food."

"I know and it all looks so good," I sighed in awe.

"Hey Luna look there's Trip and Ash talking," Snivy announced, pulling on the string that was attached to my black jacket that was over my white shirt and hung loosely below my waist and blue jeans. I saw both boys showing off their badges when Ash suddenly became depress.

I raised an eyebrow while walking over to the group of trainers, "Hello Trip, Ash. What's happening?"

"Hello Luna," Trip said with a smile.

"Hello Luna. I was just asking Trip to a battle," Ash said next.

"Well, I have to decline that battle." Trip frowned at Ash.

"But it looks like you're standing around. Are you waiting for someone?" I asked him.

"As a matter of fact I am. I'm waiting for Alder," he responded.

Iris gasped, "The Alder!"

"That's incredible!" Cilan exclaimed.

"Sure is. You're talking about Alder the Champion of the Unova League?" Ash asked.

"You see Alder is my goal," Trip said, looking between me and Ash.

"You goal?" I questioned with the tilt of my head with Snivy following my lead.

"Winning the Unova League is just a stepping stone as far as I'm concern. My ultimate goal is getting to the Championship League and once I get there, I'm going to beat Alder. This is basic stuff to anybody who wants to beat to Unova League," he explained.

"I assume that you've met Alder before. Am I correct Trip?" I asked.

"Yes you are, he was the one who set me on this path working on to become a Pokémon Trainer."

I nodded, then realized something, "Wait, how you know that he's going to be here since he's always traveling around?"

"You're right but people have seen him around here recently so I'm checking it out."

Suddenly, we hear a commotion and turn around to see Officer Jenny next to her motorcycle with a man who I assumed was Alder on it flirting with her. After Jenny made some threats and pulls out a pair of handcuffs, Alder tensed up and jumps off and Jenny drives away.

We all walk over to Alder. Trip asked Alder if he remembered him, which he kinda did, even if he does forget Trip's name.

Ash then asks to battle Alder but Trip pushes in front and asks to have one. Alder decides to battle Ash first so they head to a field nearby.

Ash uses Pikachu and Alder sends out a large, brown buffalo-like Pokémon. It features a large dark afro-like tuft on its head, with two equally large horns protruding from it. Each horn has two golden growths that form ring-like structures on it. It has a long, thick light brown hide which ends at its knees. Each foot has a single gray hoof.

"What Pokémon is that?" I muttered to myself, taking out my pokedex. Bouffalant, the Bash Buffalo Pokémon. Bouffalant is powerful and destructive, wildly charging and head-butting everything in its path.

As Pikachu begins to use Thunderbolt, Alder just stood still. Bouffalant absorbs attack after attack in to his Afro, but Alder's still did not give any commands. Bouffalant turned around and yells at Alder, but he was still asleep! It was Trip to wake Alder up with a yell, who sheepishly said he must have fallen asleep. Bouffalant gets angry as everyone sweat-drops, and instead of attacking Pikachu when told to use Head Smash, he did it on Alder sending him flying in to a tree.

I glanced to the side, muttering to the other's I was going to check on something. They said okay, so I left.

"Who knew Alder could be so entertaining." Snivy snorted.

I rolled my eyes, "Oh hush, you are the same way when you don't get any food."

"I am not!"

"Yes you are!"

"'Am not!"

"'Are too!"

"'Am not!"

"'Are too!"

"'Am not!"

"'Are too!"

"'NOT!"

"AM!"

"'NOT!"

"AM!"

"'NOT!"

"AM!"

"'NOT!"

"AM!"

Suddenly, a mainly blue-colored, quadruped Pokémon, with various spiny, crystal-like red features jutting out of its body appeared. The joints of its limbs were gray-colored, and its limbs were topped with red crystal-like features, with the two claws on each limb being similar features. It now has a red eye inside each ear. And it looked mad.

"Wh-what..." I stuttered, quickly taking out my pokedex. Gigalith, the Compressed Pokémon. Gigalith's attacks, using the compressed energy from its core, are powerful enough to destroy a mountain.

Everybody running away from the Gigalith as it went on a rampage through the fair. I looked down at Snivy as he looked up at me with worry cased in his eyes. I smiled sadly at him, setting him down on the ground next to my bag, "WH-what are you doing Luna?!"

"Don't worry Snivy, I know what I am doing," I reassured him, patting him lightly on the head.

"Bu-but-"

"I know what I am doing," I said, cutting him off and stood as I walked slowly to the enraged Gigalith. That was when Alder and Ash with Iris and Cilan came out and told everyone to stay back and yelled at me to get away from the Gigalith.

I stared Gigalith in the eyes as I began to feel something stir inside me, I smiled calmly when I felt the air around me stir. I heard people gasp around me but gave to heed to it and tuned them out. I stop when Gigalith starts running toward me but just stood there knowing what was going to happen and braced myself.

"You will stop now!" I shouted when Gigalith charged toward me, I positioned my hands in front of me and closed my eyes when suddenly I made contact with the Pokémon and felt the sudden power came into my arms and as I catches it and flipped it over. I opened my eyes to see a nail in Gigalith's foot, "Ah I see now!"

I bend over, taking out the nail out of Gigalith's foot and sprays a Potion on Gigalith's foot and gives it a stone to eat. "There you go, that should help you out now." It flipped itself back over, making it much happier. I smiled at the Pokémon.

Jenny came in suddenly insisting on arresting Gigalith. Alder tried to reason with her, but then a pillar started to topple right on top of Jenny! Gigalith jumps on top of her and stops the pillar. Jenny agrees to not arrest it, and Alder sends it on its way. I went over to my bag and picked it up, setting the strap over my head and on my shoulder then picked up Snivy, who still had a shock and worried look in his eyes and walked away from everyone. I bit my lip when I heard everyone call back to me to come back but I ignored them.

I knew I shouldn't have done but I had to even though mama told me not too. I looked down, ashamed as I walked away from all of them. When I was far enough from all of them, I called out Flygon who saw me but said nothing and got on him, Snivy in front of me and took off into the air. Distantly hearing Ash, Cilan and Iris shout at me to come back.
