Oh god, we just got a foot of snow here in New Hampshire. I hate the snow so much. Snow is evil, which is one reason why I like Johto and Kanto, no snow (especially Johto, that has a city with an Ice-type Gym in it and it has no snow. I like Ice-type Pokémon, but not the snow. Also, for a note more related to the story, I basically have the next Bonus Chapter all set and I just have to get it confirmed and write it. Expect it next update. Enjoy the Chapter.

Chapter 35

The next day, Volkner, Alicia, Leaf, and Christopher were sitting in the Pokémon Center in a booth eating breakfast. "So, guess we'll be parting ways again." Alicia said. Christopher nodded.

"Where will you guys be heading?" he asked. Alicia smiled.

"We're going to Saffron City." she said. "Volkner said we can even stop by my house. I can't wait to visit my mom and show her all my Pokémon. How about you guys?"

"First I'm going to battle the Gym Leader here, then to Rock Tunnel to scan the Pokémon there with my Pokédex, then finally head to Celadon City." Christopher said.

"I'll be going down to Fuchsia City so I can go into the Safari Zone." Leaf said. "I hear you can capture Dratini there, so that's were I'm going!"

"Dratini, huh? Wow!" Alicia said, taking a bite of her eggs.

"Going to try to win Badge number six?" Leaf said to Volkner. He nodded, and Christopher instantly froze up.

"Why?" he yelled, making everybody jump.

"Because I need to if I'm going to get all 8 Badges." Volkner replied.

"But… but…" Christopher said.

"Stop being such a baby just because you want to be ahead, Chrissy!" Leaf said to him, smiling.

"My name's not Chrissy! And I'm not trying to, it's just… the Gym Leader…" Christopher said.

"Is going to kill them!" she replied, making a funny face. "Don't make me laugh." Christopher looked like he was going to say something when Leaf shushed him. "Do you ever stop talking? Say another word about Saffron City and you'll be paying the bill." Christopher sighed and sat back.

"I can handle myself, Christopher." Volkner said. "Don't worry, I'll get the Badge." Christopher nodded, but looked kinda depressed.

"So, did Randy go back?" Alicia asked Christopher. He nodded.

"Yeah, he has a traveling buddy in Sinnoh, and he does contests there." Christopher said. "He headed back there last night."

"So did Rose, but we swapped numbers, so we'll be in touch." Alicia said. Volkner put down enough money to pay for all their meals, and they all walked out of the Pokémon Center, stopping outside the door and looking out at the ocean. "Next time we meet, let it be either Christopher or Leaf, I'm going to challenge you to a battle." Christopher and Leaf smiled.

"And I'll accept." Christopher said.

"And I'll whoop your butt." Leaf added, smirking. "I'm looking forward to when I can challenge Volkner to a battle." Volkner smiled slightly.

"Me too." he said. He looked at Alicia. "We have to go north to Route 6, then keep going up until we reach Saffron City." Alicia nodded and waved to her friends.

"We'll see you guys soon!" she shouted as they walked away, down the path to Route 11. "How about we go, huh?" Volkner nodded and they started walking to Route 6.

"Wait." a voice behind them said. Volkner turned around to see Broly standing there. "I'm going to battle all the Gym Leaders around Kanto, then we'll battle at the Pokémon League." he said, then walked off to the south, most likely to the go to the Gym.

"Mmm, I can already taste my Mom's food! It's not the best, but it's still my mom's food!" Alicia said. Volkner laughed a little.

"That's the 3rd time you've said that." he said.

"I know, but I really miss home." she replied. Suddenly, a girl that looked exactly like Alicia walked out of the bushes.

"Hello, trainers!" she said. "Huh, Alicia?" Alicia looked at the girl and gasped.

"Copycat! How have you been?" Alicia said, hugging the girl that looked exactly like her.

"I've been alright, but I got lost coming back from Vermilion City." the girl said. The girl looked at Volkner. "Hey, you were in the Tag Battle competition too!" She jumped into the bushes, and jumped out, wearing a blue jacket, black pants, and a yellow wig that made her look like a smaller, girlier version of Volkner. She even had the expression right. "Hi, I'm Volkner, and I lost in the Quarterfinals because my partner wouldn't listen to me." Alicia laughed a little, and Volkner looked at the girl strangely.

"Who is this?" Volkner asked.

"Who is this?" Copycat repeated, sounding exactly like Volkner, then laughed.

"Copycat likes to copy people, and can imitate just about everyone. We grew up together." Alicia said. "She's the reason I like Flying Pokémon so much. By the way, how is your Doduo doing?"

"He's doing good." Copycat said. "Hey! I know, since you're a Pokémon Trainer now, how about a battle? That way, I can show you my Pokémon, and you can show me yours! How about two Pokémon each?" Alicia nodded and smiled.

"Okay, but don't think I'll hold back on you just because you're my best friend." Alicia said, putting her backpack next to Volkner and taking out a Poké Ball. "Go, Brazen!" she shouted, throwing her Poké Ball and her Charmeleon coming out.

"Oh, cool, a Charmeleon!" Copycat said. She jumped into the bushes and seconds later, came out wearing an exact replica of Alicia's outfit. "Is that the Pokémon you got from Prof. Oak?" Alicia nodded.

"His name is Brazen, right?" Alicia asked. Brazen turned to its Trainer and gave her a thumbs-up.

"Wow, now it's my turn. Go, Doduo!" Copycat said, throwing a Poké Ball. A brown bird Pokémon with two heads and no wings came out.

"Hi, Doduo, it's me, Alicia!" Alicia called. Doduo's two heads faced her and it raised one of its legs and waved at her with its foot.

"Even though we know her, we can't hold back!" Copycat said. "Now, time for our motto!" Doduo squawked, then raised its two heads.

"Mirror Mirror on the wall!" one head said.

"Who's the fairest of them all!" the other one said. Volkner jumped up.

"D-did that Doduo just talk?" he said. Alicia nodded.

"Yup! Snow White and the Seven Dwarves is Copycat's favorite movie, so she taught her Doduo to say that line." Alicia said. She turned towards them. "Brazen, Dragon Rage attack!" Brazen opened its mouth and fired a fireball at Doduo.

"Jump over it, Doduo!" Copycat said. Doduo called out and jumped ten feet into the air, jumping over the fireball and landing on the ground. "Mirror Move!"

"Mirror Mirror on the wall!" it repeated, and opened its mouth, firing a huge fireball at Brazen. The attack surprised Brazen and hit it, making it fall to the ground.

"You alright Brazen?" Alicia asked. Brazen got up and pointed a thumbs-up at her. "Alright, use Scratch attack!" Brazen ran up to Doduo and started to scratch it.

"Doduo, use Peck attack!" Doduo started Pecking at Brazen with its beaks.

"Be strong, Brazen, use Ember attack!" Charmeleon opened its mouth and fired bolts of fire at Doduo. The bird Pokémon caught on fire and started running around quickly, trying to put it out.

"C'mon, Doduo!" Copycat shouted. The one head hit the other, and they started to fight, pecking each other. "C'mon! Stop fighting, use Mirror Move!" The two Doduo heads opened their mouths and fired bolts of fire at each other's face, knocking itself out. Alicia laughed and recalled Brazen.

"I still remember how the two heads always used to fight." she said. "I see they still do that." Copycat looked at Alicia.

"Why'd you recall your Charmeleon? I still have a Pokémon left you know!" she said, smirking. "Go, Banette!" A black Ghost-like Pokémon that looked like a giant doll came out. "Banette!" it said, sending chills down Alicia's back.

"A Banette?" Alicia said. "That thing is creepy!"

"No it's not, it's adorable! It's like one of my Pokémon Dolls, except it moves!" Copycat said. Banette smiled at its Trainer. "I caught it when me and my parents took a trip to the Fight Area in the Sinnoh region."

"Okay then. I'll fight it with… Wingull!" Alicia said, taking out a Love Ball and releasing her Wingull." "Wingull!" it said, coming out of the Poké Ball.

"Alright, I'll start things off! Banette, use Shadow Ball!" Banette put its arms together and formed a black ball in between them. It then fired the black ball of energy at Wingull.

"Wingull, spin, and fly over it!" Alicia called. Wingull flipped in the air, dodging the attack. "Great, now use Supersonic!" Wingull opened its mouth and blue circles came out of Wingull's mouth, making Banette hold its ears in pain.

"Copy it with Screech!" Copycat said. Banette opened its mouth and screamed loudly, making an even louder noise. Wingull stopped flapping and started to plummet to the ground.

"Wingull, use Quick Attack to circle it!" Alicia yelled. Wingull opened its wings and started to fly around Banette fast. Banette stopped Screeching and started to follow Wingull with its eyes.

"No, Banette, that's what they want you to do!" Copycat said. "Use Night Shade!" Banette fired a black beam from its hands at Wingull, but it was moving so fast that it missed it.

"Wingull, come in for a Wing Attack!" Alicia yelled. Wingull's wings started to glow white and it started to fly at Banette at top speed.

"Gotcha now! Banette, Thunder!" Copycat shouted. Banette held out its hand and fired a large lightning blast at Wingull, hitting it and making it faint. "That was perfect, Banette!" Alicia sighed and picked up her Wingull.

"You did well, Wingull. Time for a rest." she said, recalling her Pokémon. "Wow, that was an awesome battle, Copycat. Looks like we tie."

"Yeah, until I get a third Pokémon." she said, smiling. Her Banette floated over and rested on her shoulder. "But I could always borrow my parent's Blissey and beat you with it." Alicia giggled.

"No need. Anyways, we're heading to Saffron City. Are you coming?" she asked. Copycat nodded.

"Yes, please!" she said, and the group started walking to Saffron.

"The gates! We made it!" Copycat said. "Wow, that was pretty easy, hopefully I remember that path next time I travel down to Vermilion." Alicia and Volkner smiled. "We better hurry, I bet my parents are worried sick." Alicia nodded and they walked through to Saffron, but were surprised at what they saw.

Cliffhanger. Yes, I'm that evil. And next chapter is the Bonus Chapter, so you'll have to wait longer for it. Copycat was in this one, and she's a very interesting character in the games that isn't really necessary. I mean, she has a talking Doduo! That's amazing! The next Bonus Chapter is about Loki, and another character. I have the chapter all set and confirmed, so I'll be writing it soon. The Oc's in this chapter are: Zeta Rubii Naruto's Oc Christopher, Serpent's Ballet's Oc Alicia, and Claroosoo's Oc Broly. Now to respond to reviews:

Serpent's Ballet:

Evil Pikachu? Why is it evil, lol. Your lucky, you're the only reader who knows more than anyone else does about the stone. Is Seadra your favorite Pokémon in general, or just your favorite Water type?

XoMeLoDyox:

Volkner lost to Alana and Naomi because they had a good team strategy, and he didn't. Also, Volkner hadn't lost yet, so I thought he needed a good butt kicking. Also, I have a plan for Alicia in the distant future, so that's why I made her win. And I miss you reviewing :'(.

That's it. Thank you for reading/reviewing. See you next chapter.
