(The docks)
"...And there goes our ship" Iris said as they watched their ship leave
"Don't whine you all were the ones who wanted to go on a extra long shopping trip" Naruto said
"But now we have to wait several hours for the next ship" Misty said slightly whining
"Well we could go fishing for more Pokémon" Mallow said hoping to cheer everyone up
"Is that a horsea?" Naruto said looking out at the ocean
"Dibs!!!" Iris and misty yelled
"Why do you want a horsea? Misty asked getting in irises face
"Because Kingdra is a dragon type" Iris said not backing down from misty
"It looks hurt" Naruto said with a frown
Misty and Iris jumped into the sea and swam to the Horsea
As they swam the pokemon looked to be making pictures with its ink
"Is that a tentacool?" Dawn asked looking at the ink picture as Misty and Iris brought the Horsea back to them
"Aww you're a little artist aren't you?" Misty asked as she hugged Horsea
Suddenly explosions went off as they saw a boat explode
"Those people need help" Misty said
"Gyarados!" Naruto said as he let out his Pokémon
The red pokemon came out before proceeding to go to sleep
"Oh come on!" he shouted
Gyarados looked at Naruto like it wanted to know what he wanted
"Those people need help if you save them I'll buy you any food you want" Naruto said
Gyarados huffed at him like he was expecting him to keep that end of the bargain
"Hey we may not get along yet but I have never lied to you Naruto said with a frown
Gyarados just huffed again knocking him into the water as it swam towards the sinking ship
"Well at least you're making progress with him" Iris said as she helped him back up to the dock
"Go Staryu, Starmie, Vaporeon, and Goldeen" Misty said letting out her Pokémon to go help
The water Pokémon were easily able to help save the people from the sinking ship and they brought them to the shore where Naruto and his friends were waiting
"Everyone ok?" Dawn asked the group of men who all looked like construction workers
"Yes thank you very much for saving us" one of the men said
"It's terrible, I gotta tell the boss. I gotta tell the boss what happened." Another of the men said
"Take it easy pal" Naruto said
(Half an hour later)
"I'm the boss, Nastina!" a woman… who very much resembled Brutella said
'Did that hag have a twin?' Everyone thought
"I have had enough of those damn tentacool! Nastina yelled
"Why are Tentacool a problem?"Misty asked
"I'm trying to make my perfect dream hotel and those jellyfish won't stop messing it up" Nastina said
"Yes but why are they doing that Naruto asked as Pokémon always has reasons
"I don't know and I don't care, all I care about is that they're cutting into my profits" Nastina said "Say, what would you all say to a million dollar reward for going on a tentacool extermination mission?" she asked
"Exterminate? You mean? Iris asked in horror as exterminate meant one thing
"I just wanna be rid of them by any means necessary" Nastina said not a single care in her voice
"THAT'S DISGUSTING" Misty said sending Nastina into her… workers who were men wearing swim shorts and nothing else
Misty left followed by the others
"There's a girl that can't be bought" Nastina said
"You can't buy me ether ya hag I'm out of here" Naruto said
"Ah what would I want a cripple helping anyway?" Nastina saud with a sneer at Naruto's broken arm
Kurama blasted her in the face with a flamethrower
"You lucky Kurama got to you before I did you dried up bitch!" Misty yelled
"Come on, she ain't worth it" Naruto said as they all left
"We can't let her do this to the tentacool" Misty said in panic and horror
"Wow she made you mad huh? Mallow asked
"It was about water pokemon, what did you expect?" Iris said as they all sorta expect something like this from the girl
"Well considering how no Officer Jenny has stepped in she may have legally bought that land" Naruto said as people who owned land could get away with this kinda thing if the pokemon were causing 'harm' or 'damage' to the land
"Try explaining that to the Tentacool" Dawn said
"Plus you can't buy land if Pokémon live there so there is no way this is legal" Misty said said glad she red so many Pokémon books as a kid
"Doesn't stop people from destroying nature now does it" Naruto said as he looked out the window to see the ocean "Back in my old home before I mom found me it was beautiful nature as far as the eye could see now all you really see is factories, buildings, skateparks, who are we to take land away from pokemon who have flourished in it since before we were even born" he said
"... That was deep" Iris said as she was amazed by his words
"Well I try" Naruto said as he pulled out his pokenav and hit speed dial
"Who you calling?" Misty asked
"Old man Oak" Naruto said simply wondering if there was something he could do
(half an hour later)
"Sometimes I hate humans" Naruto said as Nastina just went off on the cities P.A system saying whoever could get rid of the Tentacool would be receiving her 1 million dollar reward
"Especially greedy ones" Iris said with a scowl
"Well if we tell them that it's because the tentacool reef is being destroyed that may help" Mallow said
"I really think they more care about the money, this isn't going to end until some line gets crossed" Naruto said as humanities greed was one of the races worst qualities
Suddenly in a big flash a giant tentacruel appeared
Two familiar silhouettes hit a tower
"Of course this is a team rocket thing" Naruto said as those greedy idiots were bound to show up
"What the hell did they do to that Tentacruel?" Misty said in surprise
"All I know is that thing is coming this way and it's motion is going to make a tidal wave!" Naruto shouted as it's sheer size alone could do a lot of damage and could do some serious changes to the tide
"We gotta get to higher ground!" Mallow said as she wondered where that'd be
Misty ran to the small pool she made for Horsea to heal and grabbed the dragon pokemon and her new Magikarp who was keeping it company
"Incoming!" Naruto yelled as the tidal wave struck the city
The city was soon flooded as the giant tentacruel started to destroy the city with the hordes of Tentacool
"We can't let this happen" Dawn said as she looked at Naruto
"Go Gyarados help anybody that needs it"
The Red pokemon looked around before glancing at the giant Tentacruel before roaring at it as he blasted it with Hyper beam
"Of course he only cares to fight it" Naruto said as he slouched
"Well that thing needs to be stopped" Iris said
Naruto watched as the pokeball containing his Tentacool opened up and the jellyfish pokemon began swimming towards the giant Tentacruel
"Hey is that Meowth in its tentacle?" Dawn said noticing Tentacruel was holding something
"Attention humans we are Tentacool and Tentacruel, you have selfishly destroyed our home so now we shall do the same to yours. And not one of you has the right to complain about it" Meowth said as his eyes glowed red
"Tentacruel's using him to speak" Naruto said slightly impressed that this Tentacruel could do that
"We gotta stop this, come on we have to use all the pokemon we've got to slow that big bully down" Dawn said
Suddenly a flying streak struck Tentacruel and when it stopped they saw it was a dragonite with Cynthia on its back
Meowth screamed as he fell out of the pokemon's grip falling towards the water
"That is enough!" Cynthia yelled at tentacruel
"Not again!" Meowth said as the giant pokemon grabbed him again "Who are you to stop this, they have taken away our home, where we have thrived for as long as we can remember, who are you to deny us our revenge!" he said
"I understand that that's why I'm here to arrest the woman who is trying to destroy your home" Cynthia said in a calm tone of voice
"Please just stop this, we know we've hurt you Tentacruel" Misty said
"How do I know you aren't lying?" the giant asked them cautiously through the small cat pokemon
"Because lying to you would just be a temporary solution I promise you that your home will be left alone from now on Naruto said
"Please Nastina will pay for what she did, we will not mess with you anymore, so please stop" Misty said
Tentacruel looked at the freighted people before raising Meowth high "If this happens again we will not stop, remember this" he said before tossing meowth aside as he and the Tentacool returned to the ocean
"Man does old man oak have you on speed dial?" Naruto asked cynthia who smiled at him from dragonites back
"AHHH, no Gyarados my Magikarp is not food!" Misty shouted getting their attention as she tried to pry open Gyarados' mouth
Suddenly Gyarados' mouth glowed and he spat out the glowing Magikarp which soon evolved into another red Gyarados
"Guess I can't call her goldie anymore" Misty said "Guess it's Scarlet now" she said
The newly evolved female Gyarados roared at Naruto's who roared back causing her to back off
"Great another one" Naruto said
Naruto's Gyarados looked at Scarlet and had hearts in his eyes
"I swear is it love at first sight for pokemon, sure doesn't take long for you all to develop crushes" Naruto said
Kurama huffed as if saying 'Speak for yourself'
"Didn't take me long to like you" Iris said with a smile as she hugged Naruto's good arm
"Doesn't take anyone long to like me" Naruto said with a smile as he loved that most about himself
"So where are you all heading now?" Cynthia asked
"We're trying to get a boat back to the mainland" Naruto said
"Well I could set up a boat for you but what gym you wanna head for next?" Cynthia asked
"Um… forgot the cities name but I think it's the psychic gym" Naruto said
"You think your ready to take on Sabrina?!?!" Cynthia yelled
"Well I may want to stock up on Ghost types, I only have Phantump" Naruto said
"You reckless idiot it will take more than a type advantage to beat Sabrina she hasn't lost a match in years" Cynthia said
"No one is unbeatable, believe it babe" Naruto said with his signature grin
"Hey watch it whiskers you haven't earned the right to call me that yet" Cynthia said
"I think every guy calls you that as you have the body of a supermodel" Naruto said
"Yes but they don't say it to my face tell you what you get all 8 badges and I'll 'reward you'" Cynthia said with a sexy smirk
"Well I just did and I don't think they liked the way you said 'reward'" Naruto said with a laugh as the other girls glared at Cynthia
"You are so lucky you are cute" Cynthia said as she let out a sigh and smiled at him
"Who's gonna help this city put itself back together?" Dawn asked looking at the flooded city
"Don't worry the league will send a team to help rebuild" Cynthia said
"Ok the next ship leaves in a hour let's get going so thanks for the offer to help us get there but no thanks" Iris said as she dragged Naruto away from Cynthia
"Later" Naruto said as he waved at Cynthia
"Hey wait, we never finished who was supposed to get Horsea?" Misty said
"Well why not ask Horsea?" Mallow asked
"Considering Misty put up a pool to let Horsea heal I think the choice is obvious" Naruto said
"Horsea! The little dragon Pokémon called out as she smiled from being held by misty
"Awwwww" Iris said sounding depressed
"Tini" dratini said as she poked her head out of Irises hair to comfort her
"If you ever need me give me a call" Cynthia said to them
"We won't" the girls said immediately wanting her gone and as far from Naruto as possible
"For anything? Naruto asked wiggling his eyebrows suggestively with a smile
"Shut it" The girls said to him glaring at him
Cynthia laughed at this as she left swaying her hips slightly to tease Naruto
Naruto watched her leave intently but stopped when Iris pulled on his ear
"What happened to you focusing on training?" Iris asked a edge in her voice
"Well a guy has needs" Naruto said with a grin
The girls growled before smacking him on the head
"You have needs then ask me!" Iris yelled in a rage silencing everyone there
"Really?" Naruto asked raising a brow
"Oh forget it, let's just get on the stupid ship" Iris said as she walked towards the ship
"What'd I do?" Naruto asked wondering what he did to upset her
"You have a lot to learn about women" Mallow said letting out a sigh
"Hey it ain't my fault I attract women that average a 9 out of ten" Naruto said as he pouted
(few hours later on the ship)
Naruto approached the buffet table on the ship before noticing a Munchlax was taking all the food it could and was putting it on a plate before looking at him
"Munch?" It asked as if wondering if he wanted anything
"Uh they have ramen? Naruto asked the Pokémon
"Munch, Munch" It said pointing at the end of the table before walking off
"Okay no way you snuck on here" Naruto said
"Munchlax don't bother people" a woman yelled as she ran over she was wearing a bandana and black spats she had mid DD cups and a plump ass
"M-May?" Naruto asked surprised
The woman looked at Naruto and her eyes widened in surprise "Naruto!" She yelled happily as she hugged him
'Wow she grew up into a babe' Naruto thought as he felt her body pressed against his
"How have you been?" May asked as she separated from Naruto
"Good, you?" Naruto asked as he got some food
"Great, on my way to become a pokemon coordinator already won to contests " May said with a smile
"See? I told you that you that you had talent" Naruto said with a smile
"I even have the same Torchic you all gave me" May said
"She hasn't evolved?" Naruto asked curiously
May smiled and pulled out a pokeball which let out a blaziken which surprised Naruto
"Woah you have a second stage evolution?" Naruto asked
Yup Me and blaziken here trained hard the past couple years" May said with a smile
"Wow and my fighting type hasn't even hatched yet" Naruto said
Blaziken sniffed Naruto and then pulled him into a hug recognizing him
"Yea yea I'm glad to see you too" Naruto groaned as Blazikens hug was strong
"Naruto you ok?" Iris said as she and the other girls approached
"Yea I'm fine girls" Naruto said as Blaziken put him down
"Who's this?" Mallow asked looking at May who waved
"She's a old friend of mine that's trying to be a coordinator like you Dawn" Naruto said
"You know May?!" Dawn said surprised
"You know her?" Naruto asked
"She's the favorite rookie among coordinators and she's the most popular in the top coordinators guys would want to date" Dawn said holding up a magazine
May rolled her eyes at this "I hate that magazine ever since it came out guys look at me like a piece of meat" she said as Blaziken growled
"Well you are pretty hot now" Naruto said as he slightly checked May out
May blushed a bit but smiled "well if it's you saying it then it's ok" she said
"Great another girl traveling with us" Misty said as she grumbled underneath her breath
"Oh relax his mom said this may happen" Mallow said
"So your ok with sharing him?" Misty asked
"I'm pretty sure we don't have a choice of not sharing him anyway" Iris said
"Yea plus it might be fun" Mallow said with a giggliest
"Uh is your Munchlax trying to put the entire buffet on that one plate?" Naruto asked
May sighed at this and turned to said Pokémon now now I know you want to evolve but you can't take all the food she said
"Munch" All the pokemon did was stare at her
"You don't care what I say you just want to eat don't you" May said
The pokemon nodded with a smile
"Then I guess you don't want to dance at contests anymore" May said with a knowing smile
Munchlax frowned and threw a pie at her face
"Why you little!" May said getting angry
"Just be glad he's not a snorlax they are way worse" Naruto said
Munchlax's eyes widened as May looked at him before running off trying to balance his food on his plate
"Wanna trade for him?" May asked
"Oh no, I'm gonna catch my own Munchlax, or Snorlax, whichever one I meet, that's all your problem" Naruto said
Munchlax then ran over and hugged May's legs and shook his head
"Aww you made him sad" Dawn said in a teasing
"Ok ok I'm sorry I'll never trade you" May said as she hugged munchlax
"Ok I might want him. That tower of food is impressive, how is he keeping it balanced?" Naruto asked
"When it comes to food Munchlax is king" May said with a shrug
Munchlax snickered a little
"The only other pokemon that has enough stomach as me" Naruto said
(The next day)
"Hey look that's got to be Maiden's peak" Misty said
"Good because I think I'm developing sea sickness" Naruto said his face slightly green as was Kurama's "I think my body's trying to develop a hate for the sea" he said
"Oh come on how can you hate the sea?" Misty asked
"Let's see we nearly drowned in storms, uh Team Rocket attacked our vacation cruise, nearly got flooded, oh and yeah I got shot!" Naruto said gesturing at his cast covered arm before groaning as his face returned to green
"Maybe it was something you ate" May said offering a suggestion
"Like over 20 gallons of Ramen" Mallow said giving him a look
"Don't insult ramen" Naruto said seriously
"It's just broth and noodles, what's so special about it?" Iris asked him giving him a look
"It's the greatest food ever! Hyck!" Naruto said as he covered his mouth
"Naruto you completely ate all the ramen they had on the ship now look at you!" Mallow said scoldingly
"That's it you're getting cut off from ramen" Iris said seriously
"See how they treat me May?" Naruto whined like a pouting child
"Naruto you literally ate all the ramen before anyone else could, what'd you expect?" May said as she gave him a flat look
"VULL" Kurama said weakly not looking so good himself
Everyone groaned as Kurama threw up over the side
"Okay the sooner we get you two to land the sooner your stomachs can settle" Dawn said
"Thanks honey" Naruto said slightly dazed from his stomach ache
"Thank-- gack-- you" Dawn said as Naruto finally threw up
"He's lucky he's cute" Iris grumbled as the other girls nodded in agreement
(1 hour later)
"I love land" Naruto said as he and Kurama kissed the dirt before spitting
"Get up you idiot your still recovering" Iris said
"Huh?" Naruto said as he wasn't paying attention to her but a lavender haired woman with a flower in her hair looking out to the ocean "Who's that?" he asked
"Who's who?" Iris asked not seeing anyone
Suddenly the woman smiled and disappeared
"Ghost!" Naruto yelled as he hugged Mallow in frear "Ow my arm!" he yelled
"Get a hold of yourself, you moron" a female voice said
Everyone looked to see some goth lady getting off the ship she was wearing a leather jacket and a black short skirt and black boots she had high DD cups and a big plump and round ass
"Who are you calling a moron?" Naruto said
The woman paid them no mind and just kept walking not even sparing them a second glance
Kurama started sniffing the air where the woman was
"You smell something buddy?" Naruto asked
Kurama growled as he looked in the direction the goth or punk rock girl went
"You think that was someone strong?" Naruto asked
Kurama nodded
"Hey goth chick!" Naruto yelled as he chased after her
The woman just kept walking ignoring him
"You want to battle or run away?" Naruto yelled
The woman stopped and turned to him "I don't battle weaklings" she said
"I have three badges" Naruto said
"I have 7" The womans said flatly
"Woah cute and strong Naruto said
"If you think I'm just supposed to fall for you for saying nice things then you're wrong" the woman said
"Look I just want to battle you since I want to get stronger so if your any kind of trainer you will at least let me try" Naruto said
"Fine the names Marnie" the woman said as she pulled out a pokeball and tossed it letting out a pure white fox
"Vulpix!" The white fox pokemon said
Kurama had hearts in his eyes looking at the white Vulpix before whining as the fox turned away
"Maybe ah will like you if you beat her" Naruto said while shaking his head
"Like I'm letting Snowflake fight him" Marnie said
"Why sacred? Naruto asked
"It's called type advantage douchebag" Marnie said "Here's your Vulpix's opponent, come on Tyranitar!" she said
When the pokemon was released from its pokeball it slammed into the ground sinking a few inches in it smashing some of the ground before letting out a loud roar
Kurama took a step back seeing the Tyranitar
Marnie's pokemon huffed feeling insulted to fight something so small
"Let's… humble this guy Tyranitar" Marnie said cockily
Tyranitar tilted its head popping the joints in its neck
"Buddy if you don't want to fight I can use a different Pokémon" Naruto said looking at Kurama
"Grrrrr vul!" Kurama said growling as he shook his head
"Well at least he's not a coward" Marnie said with a light smile
"Use Shadowball" Naruto said with a smirk
"Do it too" Marnie said
The two attacks clashed but Tyranitar's easily pushed Kurama's back forcing the pokemon to jump to dodge
"Jump and use mega punch" Marnie said quickly
Tyranitar was like a blur moving getting right in front of Kurama before he got a chance to move and punched him sending him right into a tree
I have never seen a tyranitar so fast" Iris said in shock
"I'm no weakling I'm looking to be the best, and I don't care what it takes to get to the top, no pain no gain" Marnie said
"Kurama use Iron tail" Naruto said
"Catch it" Marnei said sounding bored
Tyranitar stopped the attack with one hand
"Now use slam" Marnie said
Tyranatar started slamming Kurama into the ground he then held up the barely concusses Kurama
"Kurama!" Naruto yelled worried
Tyranitar dropped the pokemon on the ground and huffed at it as if being insulted to fight it
"Weakling" Marine said sounding disappointed
Kurama growled as it shakely got up glaring at the Tyranitar
"Prideful fool" Marnie said not at all impressed
Tyranitar looked at Kurama and pulled it's eyelid down mocking him
Kurama stood up and roared making everything shake
"Show it who's boss" Marnie said
Kurama charged at Tyranitar using flame wheel but Tyranitar easily slammed it down with its tail
Before Kurama could try to get up Tyranitar stepped on it and leered in front of his face
"Hey that's to far!" Naruto yelled
"I'm a dark type trainer why should I care about being fair" Marnie said
Kurama then roared at Kurama
Tyranitar roared back even louder making Kurama flinch
"Don't give up, boy your way stronger than this!" Naruto yelled
Kurama growled and nodded not willing to give up
"Pathetic show this trash your strength" Marnie said
Tyranitar roared again making Kurama flinch before it's mouth began to glow preparing a hyper beam
Kurama desperately tried to break free Tyranitar's foot
"Come on dig deep you have the power" a voice in kurama's head said
Kurama's eyes glowed red as it blasted Tyranitar in the face with a shadow ball which made him take his foot off
"Huh" Marnie said surprised he had that in him
Kurama then gained a orange aura as he then started to glow brightly and started to grow
"Oh dear Is he evolving?" Dawn asked
"Yea" Naruto said as he knew how much Kurama wanted to evolve
The aura began to glow like flames which began to part showing orange fur
Hmmm he actually looks intimidating now Marnie said
Naruto took out his Pokédex and scanned Kurama 'NineTails the Fox Pokemon this Pokemon is said to bring bad luck if you grab one of his tails ATTENTION:this Pokémon is now part dark type'
"That type fits him Misty said as they all looked at the new firm of Kurama
Kurama glared at tyranitar and pounced and jumped onto him and started hitting and glaring at him
"Extreme speed and crunch" Naruto said in surprise that Kurama now knew those moves
Tyranitar's eyes bulged as it grabbed Kurama by the head and slammed its against his own before kicking him off
"That's it can't believe I have to do this on a rookie" Marnie said as she rolled her sleeve up to show a mega ring
"Oh dear" Mallow said recognizing what that was
"Mega evolution" Naruto said with a glare
Around Tyranitar's right arm was a stone just like the stone in Marnie's mega ring
Kurama glared and stood at the ready not ready to back down as he was not willing to back down
"Mega evolve" Marnie said with a glare at Kurama
Tyranitar was covered by a red aura and changed almost instantly his spikes were now way bigger
Kurama charged but Mega Tyranitar grabbed him by the throat and slammed him on the ground nearly stepping on his head
Kurama opened his mouth and unleashed a flamethrower that was bright blue
It struck Mega Tyranitar and it actually made him back off a bit as it was so hot
Tyranitar's eyes bulged before turning into cat slits before roaring and charging
"End it" Marnie said with a glare
Mega Tyranitar knocked Kurama over who tried getting some distance but Mega Tyranitar was practically crawling on all fours trying to get at him
"Hyper beam" Marnie said wanting Kurama to go down hard
Mega Tyranitar jumped up and practically sat down on Kurama's body using its tail to halt Kurama's retreat and grabbed the fox by the neck and got face to face with it opening its mouth
"Stop! I surrender" Naruto said his head down
Mega Tyranitar huffed as it let go of Kurama before standing up off of it giving Kurama small nod before it changed back to normal
Kurama roared trying to get back up but held it's arm desperately wanting to continue the fight, refusing to lose
"Kurama a smart warrior knows when he is beat" Naruto said as he looked at his friend
Kurama growled before beginning jump and to slam his paws against the ground
"Smart if you would have been a fool to try and continue I like a rival that knows his limits" Marnie said looking at Naruto with some respect
Marnie then looked at Kurama "good attempt you actually made me and tyranitar have to try you get stronger and hopefully you and my tyranitar can have a rematch at the Pokemon league" she said
Kurama growled as if not satisfied with just that
Marnie recalled her Tyranitar and walked away
"Kurama?" Naruto said putting a hand on the newly evolved pokemon's shoulder
Kurama huffed pulling his body away from Naruto and continued growling
"Let's get him to a Pokémon center" Iris said with a worried look as she was worried about his arm
Naruto tried touching Kurama again but it was like the pokemon refused to let him touch him
"Kurama your not gonna get stronger if you ignore Naruto's attempts to help you" May said
Kurama snarled making her back off
"Is he always like this?" May asked as she had never seen a vulpix or ninetails act like this
"Come on bud, lets go, it's the first time he's ever lost, this isn't a normal thing it's wounded pride" Naruto said
Kurama begrudgingly began walking towards the pokemon center on his own dragging one leg behind him
"Kurama's pride has been broken, he's always believed his and Naruto's strength would lead him to victory all the time, but it didn't." Iris said
Naruto and Kurama just kept going
"Hey at least you have a dark type for Sabrina" Dawn said trying to cheer them up
"Let them be" Mallow said
(3 hours later)
Naruto and his group were in the lobby of the Pokémon center waiting for any news about Kurama's recovery
Suddenly Nurse Joy came out
"How is he?" Naruto asked in concern
"The physical wounds are healed, but the mental..." Joy said not knowing how to explain that
"Still mad?" Naruto asked with a frown
"No he's not mad he's practically nothing but rage and wounded pride" Nurse Joy said as it was a little frightening how much anger one pokemon could have
"He doesn't think Naruto lead him to failure, does he?" Dawn asked curiously as pokemon had been known to blame their trainers
"No no I asked him that and he snarled at me" Nurse Joy said as she was a little scared of Kurama
"Ever since he hatched we've won every battle we've had, so for the first time in his entire life he's lost. His strength wasn't enough, and that is hurting more than anything ever could" Naruto said
"I don't understand" Misty said
"You don't get it, none of you could, you're not warriors like we are" Naruto said
"Yea well man up so you lost you just gonna give up?" Iris asked raising a brow
"I'm not the one who needs to man up" Naruto said as he looked in the direction of Kurama
"Well maybe you should tell Kurama that then" Nurse Joy said to him
"I know" Naruto said
Suddenly a Chancey pushes Kurama out on a stretcher
"How you doing buddy?" Naruto asked his friend
"How well do you think" Kurama said with a slight scoff
This shocked everyone
"He talked?!" Mallow said in complete shock
"Probably because of him evolving" May said as that was as best she had to a guess
"Well he needs to learn to not swear so much every other word he was yelling during treatment was a curse word" Nurse Joy said with a disapproving look
"Bite me lady" Kurama said not caring
"Chansey!" Chansey yelled as she slapped Kurama rapidly
Kurama snarled lunging at the pokemon making it fall backwards
"Are you gonna continue to be a jerk or are you gonna train with me so next time we will beat Marnie?" Naruto asked him calmly
"Being a jerk is kinda who I am" Kurama said giving him a blank stare
"Not to your friends to the point they are scared of you" Naruto said
"I've always been scary" Kurama said
"No you haven't you tried to look scary but everyone just called you cute and fed you" Naruto said with a smile at the memory from his childhood
"Look man of a thousand speeches hows about sparing it and let's just go" Kurama said
"Sure" Naruto said
"Cool there's a festival here and I wanna go relax after you two meatheads worried us so much" Misty said
"Try not to shop till you drop again" Kurama said snickering
"Ha ha" Misty said sarcastically
(Inside town)
"So there's a ghost haunting this festival every year?" Mallow asked the old man who showed the festival people a picture of the fabled Lady of Maiden's Peak when she was alive
"Yes you see a long time ago her lover left for a war and she vowed to wait for his return but he fell in battle never to return she refused to believe it and stayed there where her body turned to stone to become what is now Maiden's Peak" the old man said
"So that ghost I saw was real?!" Naruto yelled in fear
"Wuss" Kurama said snickering at his trainer
"Nah it was probably that prankster Pokémon again" the old man said
"Probably?" Misty asked
"Well some say the ghost appears to handsome men to lure them away and suck the life away from them" the old man said
"That'd be a helluva way to go" Naruto said with a chuckle
He was then slapped in the back of the head by Iris
"Ha! Your whipped" Kurama said with a laugh
"I don't wanna hear it from you after you went Gaga for that alolan vulpix" Naruto said as that was hilarious
"Well excuse me for finding the alolan variant more appealing than the other kanto" Kurama said to him as he liked to admire other options
"You just like that she's weak to you so you can be dominant" Mallow said
"Fuck you Chef girl R whore" Kurama growled
"Hey! Watch your mouth or I'm getting out the soap!" Mallow yelled in anger
"You get that soap it's going down something" Kurama said threateningly
"Okay, what's this about a prankster?" Naruto asked
"It's said that the maiden had a pokemon that would always change shapes to appease her, when she died the prankster turned it's pranks to the villagers always changing shapes to those they have lost to lead them away never to be seen again" the old man said
"We always find them the next morning" a woman said glaring at the old man
"Drained but found" the old man said sounding exhausted
"Kinky" Naruto said snickering
"No you fool they are always ranting about how some little black fox stole all their money and valuables" the woman said to him
"Relative of yours?" Iris asked Kurama sounding serious
"Bite me lizard lips" Kurama said plainly but had to admit his interest was peaked
"Black fox Pokémon?" Naruto said as he looked through his Pokédex
"Find it yet?" May asked curiously
"Yup" Naruto said showing them a picture on his Pokédex
"Zorua?" Dawn asked curiously
"Zorua, the illusion fox pokemon. Zorua sometimes transforms into a person and goes into cities to search for food. When Zorua does this, it usually takes on the form of a child." The pokedex said
"I used to care for a Zorua all it would do is pull pranks" Naruto said as he met one on occasion
"What happened to it?" Misty asked as Naruto cared for all his pokemon and to her knowledge they all stayed with him
"Don't know it was just gone one day" Naruto said as he was sad for a while
"I remember that chick kept pranking me and playing innocent with your mom Kurama growled
"I remember you liking her" Naruto said with a smile
"A lot of pokemon can catch my fancy, at least I don't have to say one nice thing to get their panties wet" Kurama said with a chuckle as he looked at the girls
The girls blushed hard at this but then glared at Kurama hard
"Is there any way to silence him?" Misty growled wishing he didn't have the ability of speech
"Nope, just be glad I'm not like Meowth" Kurama said as he shivered as that was an even higher level of douche that he did not want to be on
"You do nothing but talk and are a weakling?" Mallow asked
Kurama wrapped a tail around her leg and tripped her
"Hey!" Naruto said as he helped mallow up
"Oh please, can't help standing up for women huh, no wonder you have a harem" Kurama said rolling his eyes
"And what's wrong with that?" Iris asked
"So many bitches to please" Kurama said as he chuckled
"Why you, oh we'd hit you if we weren't afraid of dying" Misty said
"Ignoring all that, where can we find this Zorua?" Naruto asked curiously
"Hell if I know kid, it could be right here and we wouldn't know" The old man said as he looked at Kurama and smiled evilly "tangerine head" he said which made Kurama freeze
"I'm gonna fucking kill you ya bitch!" Kurama said as he lunged at the old man
The old man disappeared and a Zorua was there
The small black fox was whimpering as she ran from Kurama, the large black and orange fox pushing people over chasing her
"Am I missing something?" Misty asked curiously
"The Zorua back home used to call him that" Naruto said with a chuckle thinking back to those times
"It could talk?" Mallow asked curiously wondering how many pokemon could speak
"Well no this is new as I would usually be the only one to hear it" Naruto said
"Awww it teases Kurama cause she likes him" May said finding this adorable
"I do not grandma!" Zorua said from a tall tree branch making May look at her in equal rage to Kurama
"Come down!" Kurama said literally shaking the tree to make the fox come down
"No way you became a bully!" Zoura yelled pouting like a child
"Either you come down the easy way or you come down my way this tree can't take all this shaking forever" Kurama said
"I refuse to listen to a evolved meathead" zorua said
"At least I evolved unlike you midget!" Kurama yelled as he began pushing on the tree so hard it began to lean upward, till its roots began to break
Zorua began to hold onto her branch for dear life knowing Kurama was gonna try pushing the tree over" knock it off!" She yelled
"Make me" Kurama said
As soon as the tree fell Zorua leapt off turning into a pidgey and flew off
"Oh no you don't" Kurama said as he extended his tails and blocked its path
Suddenly over Kurama became one big shadow "Oh shit" he said as he got squished by Zorua as a Wailord
"Haha I became awesome with my ability to change" Zorua said as she praised herself
"Get off me you fat bitch" Kurama said in total anger
"This is both sad and adorable" Iris said with a smile
"Fuck off bitch" Kurama and Zorua said before the transformed fox turned whale got pushed off
"Oh god they are soul mates" Misty said noticing that the two Pokémon were a lot alike and shivered thinking of the litter they'd have
"I was a fucking Wailord how'd you push me off?" Zorua asked in surprise
"I can't stand bitch talk when I'm dealing with shit" Kurama said as he growled at her
"Hey" Iris said
"Hey Zorua, how are you doing?" Naruto asked her with a smile
"Oh hey Naruto you still carry those great treats?" Zorua asked as she went over to him and gave him respect
"You mean these?" Naruto asked holding a swirl shaped cookie
"Yay! You need a dark type for your team?" Zorua asked curiously
"Yoink" Kurama said eating the cookie
"My cookie!" Zorua said in shock
"Mine now" Kurama said
Zorua began crying, her tears coming out of her like waterfalls
Naruto picked zorua up and petted her comforting her "here" he said handing her another cookie
Zorua ate the cookie happily "so you need a dark type for your team or not?" She asked curiously
"Well technically Kurama is part dark type" Naruto said
"Ha! He's a rookie compared to me!" Zorua said
"A rookie that chased you up a tree" Naruto said
Zorua pouted cutely hearing hims say that
"But I will take you only because you two make such a cute couple" Naruto said
"Not into midgets" Kurama said snickering
"You were a midget just a few hours ago" Naruto said
"Still not into midgets" Kurama said
"Keep it up smartass I bet when I evolve you will beg for my attention" Zorua yelled
"I think he begs for attention period" Naruto said with a smirk
"I do not!" Kurama said in denial
"Everyone needs someone, otherwise you'll be very lonely" Naruto said
"I'll take your advice when you actually get some" Kurama said
"Better chance than you'll have" Naruto said
"Ooh" Zorua said with a smirk as she always loved these bouts of teasing
"Say that to my face cripple!" Kurama yelled
"These two are exhausting" Misty said as she shook her head
"Well let's get ready for the festival" May said
(few hours later)
Naruto Kurama and Zorua were waiting at the festival looking around while they waited for the girls
Kurama and Zorua were terrorizing the all you can eat buffet and Kurama had just finished off the table of food
"All you can eat my furry ass!" Kurama yelled as people watched bewildered
"Ew" Zorua said looking disgusted
"Not literally you moron" Kurama said
"Don't people eat fox?" Naruto said
"They can try" Kurama said as he cackled as more food was brought out
"Well at least he's feeling better" Misty said as her and the other girls Arrived wearing kimonos
"Wow you all look great" Naruto said with a smile at The girls
"And here I thought you all couldn't pull off looks that didn't require showing some" Kurama said snickering
"You calling us floozies? Iris asked her eyebrow twitching showing her anger was rising
"The past nine shopping trips are my witnesses. Did you not look at the clothes you bought?" Kurama asked
"Oh go stuff your face" Mallow said rolling her eyes
"Already three steps ahead of you on that Green Bean" Kurama said as he dived into another table of food
"Keep it up and you'll become as round as a jigglypuff and won't be able to do anything but roll around, is that what you want?" Naruto asked him curiously
"I get plenty of exercise training with you every day whiskers now go spoil your bitches!" Kurama yelled wanting to eat in peace
Naruto rolled his eyes as he left Kurama at the buffet
"Hey! Before you go off catch me already!" Zorua yelled from his arms
Naruto pulled out a friend ball and tapped her on the head which then captured her instantly
"Oh, and be sure to take plenty of condoms, I don't think your mom wants grandkids yet" Kurama said as he laughed mischievously
"I'm gonna kill him!" Misty and Iris yelled as they tried to go after Kurama but Mallow and May held them back
"Oh brother" Naruto said as he had a sweatdrop on his head
(A few days later)
Naruto and his group were in the forest trying to find a path to Saffron city
"One more week and I'll be able to see if it's time to take this cast off" Naruto said
"Well Until then your still not allowed to train with your pokemon all you can do is supervise" Iris said with a hard look at Naruto
"Hey is that a Glalie?" Naruto asked making the dragon trainer yelp
"Not funny" Iris said looking at Naruto with a glare at his prank
"Did you just yelp?" Naruto asked laughing
"Smell that?" Kurama said as he sniffed the air
"We don't have pokemon noses" Mallow said flatly
"That's the smell of the Butterfree mating season going on" Kurama said
"You can smell that?" Dawn asked
"Trust me when a pokemon is in heat you can tell by a few ways" Kurama sai
"Oh tell us oh grand one" May said sarcasm lacing her words
"Well you can smell her juices going, kinda like how you all are when he has his shirt-- okay enough" Kurama was saying before Naruto stopped him
They reached a clearing and saw dozens of Butterfree flying
"Wow" Misty said finding them beautiful
"You hate bugs but love Butterfrees, and Beautiflys, wow." Kurama said as that sounded a little messed up to like only a few of the species and not like the rest
"Bite me" Misty said glaring him
"Should you let yours join in?" May asked Naruto
"I don't know, I don't think he's really looking for a mate" Naruto said
"Well you should give him the choice at least" May said
"Fair point" Naruto said as he grabbed Butterfree's pokeball off his belt "Go find you a girl if you want" he said releasing his Butterfree
Kurama suddenly smelled something "hey whiskers I think that friend of yours with the big hat is here" he said
"Really?" Naruto asked surprised
"Her perfume is unmistakable" Kurama said as he sniffled
They looked around and saw Serena nearby with a pink butterfree
"Butterfree come in pink?" Dawn asked curiously thinking that it made it look even more cute
Suddenly Naruto's Butterfree gained hearts in its eyes and flew off towards Serena and her Butterfree
Naruto blanched a little "Of course it's with someone I know" he said
Serena watched as Naruto's Butterfree flew around hers
"Where'd you get a pink Butterfree?" Naruto asked as him and the others approached
"She found me named her Pinky" Serena said with a smile
Suddenly the two butterfree started flying around each other like there were dancing
"Butterfree mating dance" Naruto said with a smile glad that Butterfree found someone with no trouble
Suddenly the other butterfree around them began flying away as if scared
"Please not now" Naruto said in annoyance
A trio of familiar laughter was heard
"Prepare for trouble" James said as a helicopter with a giant net came into sight
"And make it double" Jessie said striking a pose
"Kurama fire blast" Naruto said sounding bored
Kurama smiled sadistically as he fired a massive fire attack that took the shape of a man
The attack struck the helicopter and made it explode
"We're blasting off again!" Team Rocket yelled as they were sent flying
As the helicopter exploded Butterfree began to escape from the net they were caught in
"Wow kurma became a powerhouse since he evolved Huh?" Serena asked as she pet Kurama with a smile
"He was always a powerhouse" Naruto said as he rubbed Kuraama's head before getting burped at "I could taste the peanut butter" he said pushing Kurama away who had a grin on his face
"Ha" Kurama said
"So what's the plan for Romeo and Juliet here?" Iris asked
"I guess they could live on Oak's Ranch I mean Butterfree doesn't wanna leave me but he doesn't wanna leave his mate" Naruto said
"That's fine with me since I send my extra pokemon to Oak anyway Serena said with a smile
"Does everybody do that?" Mallow asked
"Well technically they can do it to anyone it's just easier on the tech when your pokemon are in the same region" Naruto said
"That's why we send our pokemon to him now if they went back home the connection wouldn't be all that good" Serena said
"Oh" Mallow said nodding in understanding
"So what happened to your arm?" Serena asked looking at Naruto
"I got shot" Naruto said simply as he wasn't afraid or ashamed of it
Serena paled hearing this imagining someone she cared for in pain
"Relax he had a bad encounter with a actual competent member of team rocket but he will be fine soon" Iris said
"So where are you all heading next?" Serena asked curiously
"lavender town" Naruto said with a determined look
"Isn't that the town where you go to get a ghost type?" Serena asked curiously
"Yup if I want a chance Vs Sabrina I need a ghost type" Naruto said to her
"But you have like 3 dark types" Iris said not understanding what his problem was as dark and ghost types were basically one in the same
"Yeah but I'm sure she's prepared for dark types after all every gym leader should prepare for the pokemon of their opposite type" Naruto said
"Well you better catch a good one from what I hear Sabrina is worse then Surge" May said with a frown
"Rumor has it there's a grey Gengar in a tower that chases everyone away" Serena said
"Grey Gengar huh?" Naruto said with a smirk
"Sounds like a strong opponent" Kurama said with a smirk liking the prospect of a new challenge
"Sounds like a shiny" Dawn said to him
"Let's go" Naruto said
"Stay out of trouble ok?" Serena said sounding worried
"Wanna come along?" Naruto asked looking back at her
Serena smiled and walked over "sure I have been getting lonely anyway" she said as they all left the area
"You need guy friends" Kurama said flatly
"I know" Naruto said as him attracting women was a blessing and a curse
(A few days later in lavender town)
Naruto and his group were in front of a big Tower as the sun started to set
"This is the perfect place for ghost types, creepy as hell" Dawn said as this place screamed abandoned and haunted
Suddenly a blue light lit in a window making them yelp
"Another useful thing Ghost types love to scare people" Naruto said as it was basically their natural talent
Suddenly Dawn felt something behind her and when she looked she saw what looked like a floating candle
"It's so cute!" Dawn yelled as she approached the pokemon
"What is it?" Mallow asked looking it over getting a little closer
Naruto pulled out his pokedex and scanned it
Litwick the candle pokemon this Pokémon likes to use its flame to lead lost travelers to safety
The Litwick floated around Dawn and made multi color flames appear and dance around itself
"Awww he's a performer" May said with a smile thinking he was cute and impressive
"Hey little guy I'm looking For a gengar that lives here you know him?" Naruto asked the candle pokemon
The Litwick perked up and then walked through everyone's legs before going through the door into the tower
"I think he wants you to follow him" Mallow Said
"But I don't want to go into the creepy tower" Naruto said getting a bad feeling about it
"If you want a ghost type then man up wuss" Kurama said as this was crap from Naruto's small fear of ghosts
"Says the pokemon that's 30 feet away from the damn building" Naruto said flatly
"You're both pathetic" Iris said shaking her head
"Well if this gengar was any kind Of fighter he would fight me right here!" Kurama yelled As a grey figure appeared behind him
"Gengar gar gar!" Gengar said appearing above them
Kurama let out a unmanly shout as he jumped up literally jumping to a branch and held onto it
The gengar started rolling on the floor laughing hard
"And you call me a Wuss?" Naruto asked with a smile as he looked at Kurama
"Ha ha" Kurama said sarcastically
The gengar then floated over to Naruto and inspected him "gar?" He asked
"I wanted to see if you were strong enough to be one of my pokemon Naruto said
"Gen... Gengar" the pokemon said
Suddenly some Gastly, Haunter and other ghost types showed up pulling out flags with the Gengar on it
"Wow he's got a entire cheer squad" Misty said
Even the small Litwick was seen waving a small flag with a tiny smile on its face
"You realize if You lose I'm gonna catch you right? Naruto asked wanting to be sure Gengar knew what he was getting into
Gengar just shrugged as if going "Eh"
""Someone get me the fuck down!"Kurama yelled
Gengar grinned as he kicked the tree making the branch Kurama was clinging to break causing him to fall
All the Ghost types joined Gengar in laughter
"OK that's it Me and you right Now! Kurama yelled baring his fangs at Gengar
Gengar gained a hardened look on his face losing his smile as he shot at Kurama
"Oh shit!" Kurama said as he jumped to the side dodging Gengar who then went through the tree it kicked
"Oh great he's a gentle Giant" May said as this was common that the strongest pokemon always acted kind to throw there opponents off
"Garrrr!" Gengar said letting off a thunderbolt
"Holy shit!, holy shit!, holy shit!" Kurama said running as every bolt demolished a tree he ran by "This thing is nearly as fast as I am and a little as strong" he said
"Then let's stop Holding back then Kurama extreme speed and follow up with dark pulse Naruto said
The two pokemon shot at each other
"I think it knows extreme speed too" Misty said
Gengar's cheeks puffed up before launching a glob of sludge that sent Kurama against the tower
"Jeez it's like this gengar has been training on its own" Iris said sounding intimidated
"Kurama glare and then dark pulse" Naruto said
Gengar suddenly began spinning before going underground
Kurama groaned as Gengar headbutted him in the gut coming out of the ground
"Okay definitely as strong as I am" Kurama said
The fox then groaned loudly as Gengar then licked him
Kurama looked disgusted but then unleashed a flamethrower in gengars face
Gengar's face was burned but he didn't seem fazed by much
Gengar's eyes then flashed pink but sending out a flash of light hitting Kurama
"That was dazzling gleam" Naruto said a little impressed as that was a fairy type move not something many ghosts could do
"I'm not a dragon type you loon!" Kurama yelled as he charged at gengar and struck him with a flare blitz
"This Gengar really has been training itself" Naruto said
Gengar looked at Kurama but smirked "Gar gengar" it said as he punched his fist
Kurama smirked "same to you pal" he said wanting to take him on
"Kurama use Fire blast" Naruto said
When Kurama fired the attack Gengar took a deep breath before shouting loudly, it extinguished the flames and knocked Kurama out of the air
"That was some hyper voice" Naruto said
Gengar then made multiple shadow balls, before beginning to juggle them and then launched them making Kurama have to run around to avoid the,
"Looks like I'll have to go all out then"Kurama said with a grin
"Use blast burn" Naruto said knowing what Kurama was thinking
Everyone held each other as the explosion went off
As the smoke cleared Gengar wasn't shown
Kurama's eyes widened as Gengar came out of the ground nailing him with a thunder punch
"Gengar, gen, gen, gar" the pokemon said
"You faced a trainer that used that? Wow" Kurama said
Gengar suddenly fell backwards just like Kurama
"Too tired to go on too huh?" Kurama asked
"Gar"
"Yeah, let's call it a draw, but that was fun" Kurama said as he laughed
Gengar nodded and looked at Naruto and nodded
Naruto pulled out a ultra ball and tossed it at Gengar which hit him
Gengar looked at his fellow ghost types and made a peace out sign as he got sucked in
The litwick that they met earlier floated over and started tugging on Dawn's shirt
"Looks like he likes you" Naruto said with a smile
Dawn smiled and patted Litwick on the head avoiding the flame before tapping its head with a pokeball
"Good now let's get out of here" Iris said as she wanted to leave
"Scared? And you called us wusses" Naruto said as he laughed a little
As they walked away a Haunter stopped them scaring the girls
"Haunter?" the pokemon asked looking at them
"We have to go face the gym leader of Saffron" Kurama said
"Haunter, Haun?" Haunter asked curiously
"Can you come along?" Kurama said sounding surprised
"Are you a performer? Serena asked with a smile
"I don't think it wants to be caught I think it just wants to watch Gengar fight" Naruto said
Haunter nodded its head
"Awww" Serena said with a frown
Haunter frowned not liking that Serena was sad he then smiled and whistled
Suddenly a pokemon flew over
"a mischievous?" Naruto asked recognizing the pokemon
"Awwww she's adorable!" Serena said gushing over the new pokemon
"Haun Haun ter" haunter said to Kurama
"ah she likes to perform a lot so haunter here thinks you're the perfect trainer for her" Kurama said to Serena
Serena smiled and pulled out a pokeball which Mischievous excitedly headbutted effectively being captured
Haunter sunk into Naruto's shadow as they continued on their way to Saffron to challenge this unbeatable Gym leader
