Hey hey hey! What's up kiddies? I really need to think of a better opening for my Author's Note. In the last chapter we saw Evan owning Morty with some three-team powa by Noctowl, Ampharos and Typhlosion, and in this chapter, as many of you guys guessed correctly, yes, I'll be writing on the Kimono Girls. Well, not really the Kimono Girls. More like one Kimono Girl, and a few Rockets.
The new RuneScape story is out, so it would be awesome if everyone would go take a look at that. Also, I am going overseas on Monday, so I won't be updating for awhile actually, not until when I return on Friday or Saturday.
Thanks to Retro Charizrard, pokestets23, pkmaster777 and Darth Tren for the reviews!

"If we leave today, we should be at Olivine City by tomorrow," Evan smiled with glee at the thought of earning another badge at Olivine. He already had four badges, including the Fog Badge he had recently earned from the local Gym Leader, Morty. It had been a tough battle, and took Evan two attempts, but he did manage to defeat the Ghost-type specialist after some hard work from Noctowl, Ampharos and his trusty starter Typhlosion.
"No way," Crystal shook her head. "We should continue sightseeing! There are so many more interesting buildings in Ecruteak!"
"I'm only interested in earning badges," Evan frowned.
"Okay, okay. Maybe we could check out that, then we leave," Crystal pointed to one of the buildings. They walked forward to take a look.
"Kimono Dance Theater?" Matt spoke up. "Bah. Boring."
Crystal ignored the boys and opened the door.
Evan became alert at once when he caught a glimpse of a familar black flash. He rushed in quickly, ahead of Crystal and Matt, to see the audience looking annoyed at a Rocket member and a Kimono Girl on stage.
"Stop dancing that stupid dance of yours!" The Grunt hollered at the Kimono Girl. "Show me something cool like a hula dance!"
"What do you think you're doing?" Evan yelled, earning the stares of the audience, and the Rocket Grunt.
"Get out, kid," the Grunt glared at him.
"I'll show you who's the kid," Evan shot back an equally fierce glare at the Grunt. "Stop harassing this Kimono Girl and pick on someone your own size." Saying this, the young Trainer took out a Pokeball.
"So you're challenging me to a Pokemon battle, eh?" The man smirked. "Alright! Let me humiliate you in front of all these people," he gestured towards the audience. "Go, Weezing!"
A Weezing! Evan thought. This must be a strong Grunt. Meanwhile, he caught sight of Matt making his way to the seats, while Crystal stood and looked on worriedly.
It's at a high level, Evan realized, looking at his PokeDex.
"Hey! No using gadgets!" The Grunt roared.
Evan ignored the black-uniformed man. Pocketing his PokeDex, Evan sent out Typhlosion, causing the Grunt to be taken aback and the audience to go "woah".
"J-J-Just a stupid Typhlosion?" The Grunt tried to look brave.
"Then what do you think I would send out?" Evan shot back. "You underestimate me, and so do all of your crooked teammates."
The Rocket Grunt frowned, but then issued a command. "Weezing, let's put this kid in his place! Use Sludge!" Weezing spewed dark brown sludge from it's two mouths.
"Speed, Typhlosion!" Evan yelled. "Dodge!" Typhlosion jumped to the side with ease and the poison sludge hit the ground, creating a nasty odor. "Shadow Claw!" Typhlosion's right paw manifested into a dark ghostly claw, and the large Volcano Pokemon rose into the air, before descending on Weezing with a crushing Shadow Claw.
"Weeeeziiing...!" Weezing cried.
"Assurance!" Weezing tackled Typhlosion with it's large head, knocking Typhlosion backwards.
"Lava Plume!" The ground around Weezing exploded, inflicting a harsh burn on the two-headed Pokemon. "Now, Swift!" A barrage of stars was blasted at the burnt Weezing, causing further damage.
"Sludge!" Weezing's attack failed again, Typhlosion managed to dodge with a great leap into the air. "Uh... then Assurance!" Weezing charged towards Typhlosion, but this time, Typhlosion managed to use both paws to push Weezing away, amazing everyone who witnessed the scene with it's great strength.
"Why can't any of my attacks do any damage?" The Grunt grumbled angrily. "Sludge! Sludge! Sludge, I say!" Weezing spewed mass amounts of Sludge at Typhlosion, but the swift Pokemon dodged every one of them, eventually getting close enough to Weezing to use a final Shadow Claw that sent the Poison-type flying backwards and knocking the Grunt down.
"Argh... Get off me, Weezing!" The Grunt mustered all his strength to push the heavy Pokemon away. It had fainted. Angrily, the Rocket recalled his defeated Pokemon. "This isn't the end! You're next, Golbat!"
"Bat! Bat!" Golbat shrieked, as it was called out.
"Seems like you've got a lot of strong Pokemon that you don't know how to use." This time, it was Evan who smirked. "Probably all stolen Pokemon, eh?"
"Shut up!" The Grunt glared angrily at the boy who had outwitted him. "You don't know anything! Golbat, Air Cutter!" Golbat flapped it's wings, firing an invisible force of air that hit Typhlosion and knocked the Pokemon a few steps back.
"Burn those wings with Lava Plume!" Typhlosion roared, repeating the Fire-type move and creating an explosion around Golbat, again inflicting a burn. The Rocket Grunt was getting frustrated now.
"I'm supposed to win with all these Pokemon!" He stomped his foot angrily. "When I defeat you, I'll steal that Typhlosion of yours!"
"Try to defeat me first, eh?" Evan chuckled. "I won't even need to use my second Pokemon. Typhlosion, Swift!" Typhlosion fired stars from it's mouth, hitting Golbat right in the face.
He doesn't even know how to command his Pokemon to dodge. Pathetic, Evan frowned. "Typhlosion, one last Shadow Claw to end the match!" Typhlosion charged up his Shadow Claw, before charging at the helpless Golbat.
"Golbat, Wing Attack!" The Grunt cried desperately, and Golbat's wings glowed white before the bat-like Pokemon charged at it's opponent. Both Pokemon smashed into each other with their respective attacks, and eventually Golbat fell to the ground, it's eyes in spirals. Typhlosion did a flip back to it's original position, still looking strong.
"Now let's see what other tricks you have," Evan taunted.
The Rocket Grunt growled. Evan saw that he only had one more Pokeball attached to his belt, and a victorious smile crept onto his lips.
"Larvitar, you're next!" The Grunt threw his last Pokeball, sending out a Pokemon. Evan stared at the green-colored Pokemon, and reached for his PokeDex.
"Larvitar, the Rock Skin Pokemon. Larvitar feed on soil, and after it has eaten a large mountain, it will fall asleep so it can grow. They generally hatch deep within the earth and take a long time before coming up to the surface."
Evan observed the small Pokemon. It looked unhappy, and didn't look too comfortable to be battling.
"Larvitar, Rock Slide!" The Grunt called. Larvitar leaped onto the ceiling, surprising Evan. The small Pokemon then chipped away at the ceiling, before jumping back down on the ground. Brief moments later, the ceiling gave way, and crashed onto the unsuspecting Typhlosion.
"Typhlosion!" Evan yelled.
"Ty..." Typhlosion rose from beneath the rocks. "... Phlosioonnnnn!" The flame on Typhlosion's back blazed stronger, signifying that it could still fight.
"What? Argh, how do I take out this thing?" The Grunt growled. "Larvitar, uh... Dark Pulse!" Larvitar opened it's mouth, releasing a beam of black circles.
"Into the air, Typhlosion!" Typhlosion jumped up high, and the beam crashed onto the ground. "And down with a Shadow Claw!" Typhlosion fell towards Lavitar, it's right paw pulled back and charging up a Shadow Claw, before smashing the attack into Larvitar's body.
"Larvitaaaaarrrr!" Larvitar cried in pain, as Typhlosion wrapped up the attack successfully.
"Work, you weak Pokemon!" The Grunt roared. "Get back up!"
"It can't fight anymore," Evan protested.
"Who are you to tell me what to do?" The Grunt glared at him. "I'm it's Trainer, and as far as I'm concerned, I am not surrendering!"
"Lar... vi... tar...!" Larvitar now fell onto the ground and fainted.
"Argh..." The Grunt clenched his fists, recalling the fainted Pokemon.
"And now, as far as I am concerned, all your Pokemon have been taken out. The battle is over alright, for you. Go, Typhlosion!" Typhlosion lunged at the Rocket Grunt, too fast for the Grunt to get out of the way. Moments later Typhlosion had grabbed hold of the Grunt.
"Wha-What do you think you're doing?" The Grunt said angrily, as he struggled.
Evan walked forward calmly and took the Grunt's three Pokeballs. "I'll be returning these to their respective owners," he pocketed the three Pokeballs and whipped out his Pokegear, preparing to dial the police as the audience exploded into applause...
Not one of my longest chapters, I know. In the next chapter, Evan gains yet another new Pokemon and heads to Olivine. Guess who the new team member is? Hint hint: He gets it BEFORE travelling to Olivine. And yes, I won't be updating for awhile, so until my next update - see you!
Q1: Guess the Pokemon that's going to be added to Evan's team next chapter.
Q2: Did you like the battle this chapter? Was it descriptive enough?
Q3: Do you like Mickey Mouse?
