When they got to the meadow they all stopped and looked around as a breeze blew across the grass causing it to sway.
"Look at this place." marveled Ash looking around.
"Cha." said Pikachu
"I don't know why, but I'm picking up some weird vibes from this place." thought Ash to himself.
"Alright Ash now that we're here let's see what pokémon you can find and capture." smiled Timothy
They all started walking around looking for a pokémon and a few minutes later Nikita floated back down to Timothy.
"Be...Be." said Celebi
"Did she find any?" asked Eria
"Yea let's go." nodded Timothy
They followed Timothy thought the grass up to a small clearing where they saw two pokémon talking.
"Cool a Volbun, but what's a Aquilion doing here." said Eria
A Volbun and a Aquilion. Let's see what the poke'dex say's about these two." said Ash
"Volbun The Electric Rabbit Pokémon…It store's electricity in the fur around it's neck which becomes shinier the more electricity is stored. It like's stormy place's with allot of lightning and is rarely seen anywhere else. Aquilion The Volcano Pokémon and the evolved form of Cyndaquil. Aquilion are very shy pokémon that prefer to stay away from other people and other pokémon. They love to use their fire attack's when battling and are rarely seen in any other place other than near volcano's." said The pokédex
"I didn't know Cyndaquil had another evolved form." said Ash
"Well when a Cyndaquil is trained in Farplane Meadow it evolves in a Aquilion, but this goes only for female Cyndaquil. There are a few other pokémon that evolve when you train them here" explained Timothy
"Cool." said Ash
"Pika." nodded Pikachu
"So which one are you going to capture?" asked Eria
"I don't know...like them both." thought Ash
"Well try and capture them both." suggested Timothy
"Chu." agreed Kachu
"Alright Infernape, Saurava let's go!" shouted Ash as he threw his pokéballs and both Infernape and Saurava appeared in front of him.
"Infer...Infer!" shouted Infernape ready to fight.
"Saur...Saur!" roared Saurava ready to fight.
Both the Volbun and Aquilion turn around toward Infernape and Saurava ready to fight.
"Quil!" shouted Aquilion
"Vol!" shouted Volbun
Just then the Volbun jumped into air and fired a thunderbolt at Saurava, then Aquilion fired a flamethrower at Infernape.
"Alright Saurava, Infernape use Flamethrower!" shouted Ash
Both Saurava and Infernape fired a flamethrower that collided with the other two attacks in a explosion.
"Saurava Quick Attack and Infernape Mach Punch!" shouted Ash
Both Saurava and Infernape charged toward the two pokémon, but before the pokémon could land a hit the two wild pokémon jumped out of the way. The Volbun shot another thunderbolt at Saurava just as it landed on the ground.
"Quick Saurava use Quick Attack to dodge and then use Flamethrower!" shouted Ash
Saurava quickly dodged to the right just as the attack hit the ground and the Saurava fired another flamethrower this time hitting Volbun.
"Way to go Saurava!" cheered Ash
"Pika!" cheered Pikachu
"Nice move!" cheered Eria
The Volbun stood back up as its body started to surge with electrical energy and it fired another thunderbolt at Saurava.
"Uh oh." smiled Timothy
"Use Flamethrower to counter!" shouted Ash
Saurava fired the flamethrower and it collided with the thunderbolt causing a explosion, but all of a sudden the Volbun burst though the cloud of dust created by it explosion. It then rammed Saurava with electrical energy crackling around it body and sent him sliding back.
"Pika!" shouted Pikachu
"Saurava are you ok?" asked Ash
"That was a stronger Spark. It looked like it did a number on Saurava." guessed Eria
"That's because Volbun's Electrical Surge ability kicked in when it stood back up." snickered Timothy
"What's that?" asked Ash
"Electrical Surge is Volbun's ability. It increase's the power of the pokémon electric-type attack." smiled Timothy
Volbun dashed toward Saurava again as its body once again began to crackle with electrical energy.
"Ash watch it!" shouted Eria
"One more hit like that and Saurava's done for. Come on! I know you can get up." cheered Ash
Saurava struggled to get to his feet and when he finally did the flame on his tail grew in size and started burning fiercely.
"Saura!" roared Saurava as a thick smoke spewed from the hole's around his neck.
"What's going on? What's happening to Saurava?" asked Eria
"Looks like Saurava's Fire Soul ability kicked in." snickered Timothy
"Alright his Fire Soul ability just kicked in." smiled Ash
Saurava dashed toward Volbun as his front two canine teeth started to glow and fire
started coming from his mouth.
"Hay that look's like Fire Fang! Saurava just learned Fire Fang." thought Ash
Just as the two were about to collide, Saurava dodged left and bite down on Volbun's
side. Then there was an explosion and Saurava was sent sliding back while the Volbun
was sent rolling back.
"Alright nice work Saurava!" cheered Ash
"It seems like Saurava's got the upper hand now. How is that?" asked Eria
"That Fire Soul ability double's the pokémon fire-type attack power and increase's it's chance for a critical hit." explained Timothy watching as the Volbun stood back up.
"Alright one more attack should make him weak enough to catch so Saurava use Quick Attack!" shouted Ash
Saurava dashed toward Volbun when all of a sudden it started to glow and there was a flash of light. Everybody shielded their eye's and when the light finally died out the Volbun was gone.
"All man! It got away." said Ash
"Better luck next time. It got away using Flash." laughed Eria
"Don't worry you can still try and catch Aquilion." said Timothy
"Yeah I guess so...Saurava return. Alright Infernape let's capture this Aquilion." smiled Ash as Saurava disappeared into it's poké ball.
Infernape looked at Aquilion and then got ready to fight once again.
"Alright Infernape use Flamethrower!" shouted Ash
Infernape fired the attacked at Aquilion, but it countered by firing it's own flamethrower.
"Quick Infernape use Flare Blitz!" shouted Ash
Infernape's body burst into flames as he charged toward Aquilion. The Aquilion jumped up wrapping itself in fire and collided with Infernape in a explosion that sent the both of them sliding back.
"Man that Aquilion is strong." thought Ash
"That Aquilion is good." nodded Eria
"Yea it's countering all of Infernape's attacks." agreed Timothy
"Ok we're not getting anywhere like this. Infernape use Mach Punch!" shouted Ash
Infernape dashed toward Aquilion, but Aquilion dashed toward Infernape and the two collided sending the two of them sliding back.
"It's still the same...every time Infernape attack's that pokémon counter's him." thought Ash to himself
"Quili." winked Aquilion to Infernape.
"Fer...Na." said Infernape as he backed up a little.
"I see." thought Timothy to himself.
"Let's try this then...Infernape use Dig!" shouted Ash
"Inferna." said Infernape as he jumped up and disappeared into the ground.
"Aquil." said Aquilion as it stood up looking around.
"Let's see if this work." said Eria
"Alright now!" shouted Ash as Infernape burst form the ground under Aquilion sending it
flying.
"Look's like it worked and that should've did allot of damage." said Eria
"You did it Infernape!" cheered Ash
"Infernape." nodded Infernape to Ash.
"Ash, Infernape don't get ahead of yourselves. It's not over yet." laughed Timothy
They both looked up and saw the Aquilion headed straight for Infernape like a missile.
"Infernape move quick!" shouted Ash
Infernape was just about to jump out the way until the Aquilion crashed on top of him
sending up a cloud of dust.
"Oh no Infernape!" shouted Ash
"Wow that Aquilion is really good. It just used a Aerial Ace and literally crash landed on
Infernape." said Eria
When the dust cleared they saw that Aquilion had Infernape pinned so that he couldn't move.
"Come on get up." cheered Ash
"Chu." cheered Pikachu
"Quili...Quil." smiled Aquilion to Infernape and then it jumped off him.
"Infer." said Infernape as it stood back up looking at Aquilion while breathing heavy.
"This Aquilion is something else. It counter's each of Infernape attack with ease." thought Ash as he looked at the Aquilion breathing heavy.
"This could take awhile...I don't think either of them will quit." thought Eria
"Maybe, but this battle is over." snickered Timothy
"Why do you say that?" asked Eria
"Alright once more...Infernape Mach Punch!" shouted Ash
"Fer." said Infernape as he turned around and shook his head.
"You won't...why not?" asked Ash
"Inferna...Infer." said Infernape looking at Ash.
"Lion." smiled Aquilion as Infernape disappeared back into his pokéball.
"Huuu...what was that all about?" wondered Ash as he looked at Infernape's pokéball.
"Chu." wondered Pikachu
"Ha...Ha! I guess your Infernape's calling it quits for now." laughed Timothy
"What do you mean?" asked Ash
"During that short battle Aquilion you could say was hitting on Infernape making him feel a little...how do you say superfluity." laughed Timothy
"Pika...Chu." laughed Kachu
"Me." laughed Nina
"Be...Be." said Nikita
"What do you mean by superfluity?" asked Ash
"Infernape got extremely embarrassed. This Aquilion is a female and I think by the way they you were acting I'd have to say that you have a little thing for him am I right Aquilion?" asked Timothy as he walked up the Aquilion and rubbed her on the head.
"Quili." blushed Aquilion
"You can get that close to a wild pokémon without it attacking you. How?" asked Ash
"Not every wild pokémon is mean. Isn't that right." smiled Timothy
"Lion." nodded Aquilion
"Hay Ash ask Aquilion does she won't to join you team." suggested Timothy
"Do you think she'll join us?" asked Ash
"Sometime's all you have to do is ask to make new friend's. Beside's Aquilion is kinda smitten with Infernape. I think she'll be happy to go." smiled Timothy
"How do you know that?" asked Ash
"She told me." snickered Timothy
"Ok I'll try." said Ash as he kneeled down to talk to the pokémon.
"Quili." said Aquilion
"Well Aquilion how about it...would like to join us?" asked Ash
"Aquli…Li…Lion." said Aquilion looking at Ash with her head tilted sideway's.
"She want to know why should she go with you other than just to follow Infernape." smiled Timothy
"Well to honest they way you battled with Infernape was amazing...you countered everything he threw at you. Well I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm looking for new pokémon to travel with me in this region to help me defeat the gym's and trainer's of this region. The way you were just battling proved that you would be a great addition to my team to help me out on this quest. So what do you say?" asked Ash
Aquilion looked at Ash and then looked at Timothy who was smiling while nodding his head.
"Aquilion." smiled Aquilion as she held out her paw.
"I guess that mean's yes." laughed Ash as he reached out and shook her paw.
"Pika." smiled Pikachu
"Welcome to the team Aquilion." shouted Ash as he threw up a pokéball.
"Aquili!" shouted Aquilion as she jumped up in the air, hit the button pokéball with her paw and disappeared into the pokéball.
"Alright I just caught a Aquilion!" excaimed Ash as he held up the pokéball.
"Pika…Pika." cheered Pikachu as he jumped up in front of Ash.
"Nice job." congratulated Eria
"See force doesn't have to be the answer to capturing pokémon all the time. Sometime's
just asking works just as well." smiled Timothy
"Yea! Your were right." nodded Ash as he put the pokéball on his belt.
"Hay Timothy I've been meaning to ask…how are you able to speck to pokémon?" wondered Ash
"I've been able to talk with pokémon since I was younger…I can understand them just as clearly as you or Eria." smiled Timothy
"Cool." said Ash
"Well what do we do now?" asked Eria
"Well it's getting late so let's go into the PHD and I'll fix us something to eat." smiled Timothy
They grabbed his shoulder, disappeared and then reappeared in the living room. They all
went into the kitchen and they all talked while Timothy cooked until he was done. After he was finished cooking and everybody had finished eating they all called it a day and
went to bed. The next day everybody was at the Karlin Gym with Shondra and Ash for
their battle. Tanza, Misty, Brock, Timothy, Kachu, Nina, and Nikita where all up in the stand cheering them on.
