Chapter 11: Hunting a Hunter

After leaving Lumiose City the group now walk down Route 5 meanwhile Ash and Drake conversate about what they saw yesterday. "So you think that Blaziken was that powerful?" Ash asked. "Definitely, in a brief moment I sence its Aura and it was off the charts." Drake said. He knew he never a blazing Aura like it before. "And his trainer? The man in the Blaziken mask?" Ash said. "His Aura was perfectly normal,he had good intentions...still." Drake wondered.

"What is it?" Ash said

"I feel there's more to him then meets the eye." Drake said. He thought why wear a mask,or even how did he found out they were in trouble. One thing is certain is they haven't seen the last of him.

Suddenly Ash hears a faint sound in the wind. "Huh hey what's that?" He said but no one heard anything else. "What's what?" Clemont said. They then stayed completely silent then a growling broke the silence. They then heard the growling again and they noticed it came from Ash. "Sorry guys guess I'm just hungry." Ash chuckled out. Everyone else just laughed at his antics. Meanwhile a disturbance overwhelmed Drake's senses and he turned back. Everyone was ahead and they noticed Drake fell behind. "Hey Drake you coming?" Ash asked. Meanwhile Drake just kept looking back and then a saw a jeep coming down the road at high speed and Drake notice the driver had no intention of slowing down and Drake's eyes widened.

"EVERYONE GET OFF THE ROAD!" Drake said as he narrowly dodge the speeding vehicle. Everyone managed to run off the road and into the field. "Everybody ok?" Drake said. Everyone nodded and sigh in relief at everyone was ok. "Man what's that guys problem!?" Serena said angrily,she really didn't enjoy being run down by some crazed idiot on a thrill. Suddenly a police siren came behind them and they saw Officer Jenny along with Manectric in the side car. They then pass them and everyone wondered what happened. "What's was Officer Jenny doing here?" Serena said. Drake knew what was happening and knew why Officer Jenny was here. "If you ask me,she was chasing the driver of the jeep we saw either." Drake said. Everyone was shocked by the fact that they just saw a criminal especially Clemont,Bonnie,and Serena. As they walk down the road Drake notices a cage off the side the road. "Hey is that?" He said. "Drake wait." Ash responded. The cage was wide open and out came a small bug Pokémon with a black body and with three antennas on his head. Drake then decided to scan it with his Pokéwatch.

"Scatterbug,The Scatterdust Pokémon,The powder that covers its body regulates its temperature,so it can live in any region or climate."

"Seems like a cool Pokémon." Drake said. Scatterbug then collapsed from exhaustion. "Scatterbug!" Drake then picked it up and realized it needs medical treatment. He then checked the surrounding area on his Watch and noticed a Pokémon Center not far from here. "Quick there's a Pokémon Center nearby,come on!" Drake said as they run off to help Scatterbug. They then make it a few minutes later and run to the front desk. "Nurse Joy this Scatterbug needs medical attention." Drake said. "Oh no Wigglytuff quick rush this Scatterbug to treatment immediately." Wigglytuff then came out and took Scatterbug away on a stretcher. "Don't worry we'll do all that we can." Nurse Joy then left to help and all everybody could do is wait.

Meanwhile Serena saw Drake in a serious mood by the look on his face. "Don't worry I'm sure Scatterbug will be fine." She said. "It's not that I have faith. It's just...I seen so much pain among others over the years." Drake said as he felt a wave of memories come to him like a flood. "Some get hurt,and some aren't so lucky." Serena then frowned knowing what Drake meant. "That's why when we're done I'm hunting the driver down." Drake said. Nurse Joy then came out with Scatterbug feeling fine. "Don't worry it was just exhausted. Some rest and it'll be fine." Everyone was relieved at the situation until Nurse Joy then spoke up again. "So does this Scatterbug belong to any of you?" Everyone shook their heads. "Why do you asked?" Drake asked. "Because on the scan it shows this Scatterbug isn't from around this area." Said Nurse Joy. "What do you mean,not from this area?" Ash asked. Nurse Joy then showed them Vivillion on the main screen each with different Wing Patterns. "I must admit I am curious as to where you got this kind of Scatterbug."

"Oh,we found it on the side of-" Drake said until a knot was thrown around his wrist and was pull backwards. Then Officer Jenny along with Manectric was at the end of the rope trying to pull Drake away. "Ha gotcha thief." She said. "Thief!? I'm no thief." Drake said as he pulled back. "Liar,you're in league with Dolan. Now don't make this any more harder on you and surrender." Officer Jenny said as continues to pull harder. Meanwhile Ash then spoke. "Officer Jenny wait,I can vouch for my brother,he's no thief." He said. "I believe they are telling the truth." Nurse Joy said. Officer Jenny then looked at everyone and she can tell in their eyes,they are telling the truth. She then left the rope go and apologized. In the cafeteria they continue to conversate.

"You know you two seem familiar?" Officer Jenny said. Ash and Drake wondered about why she would ask that. She then snapped her fingers. "I know now,you're them!" She said. "Who?" Drake asked. "Them,the two trainers that save Lumiose City a week ago." Said Officer Jenny. Ash and Drake then scratch their cheeks,they really hoped people would move on from that. "Yes,we were,but with all due respect let's move on to other matters." Drake said then continued. "So who was it that you were chasing earlier?" Officer Jenny nodded and explain about Dolan,a Pokémon Hunter,who specializes in Scatterbug and its evolutionary line. "When Scatterbug evolve into Spewpa and finally into Vivillion,Dolan then fetches a high price on the illegal market due to the special Wing Patterns on their wings." She said "Or exclusive clientele." Drake said. "Exactly,Dolan will do whatever it takes to get his pay,no matter who gets hurt." Officer Jenny said.

Suddenly Scatterbug started getting restless and is scattering around in a circle. "What's up with it?" Bonnie asked. Suddenly Scatterbug then started to glowed bright blue and started to change form during mid transformation. When It was done, it still had a black head,difference was it had a cotton body with powder on it. "It evolved" Drake said while Ash decided to scan it.

"Spewpa,The Scatterdust Pokémon, The beaks of birds can't begin to scratch its stalwart body. To defend itself,it spews powder."

"Wow that was so cool!" Said Bonnie,to her that was the first time she ever seen a Pokémon evolve. "I wish I can learn more about Evolution?" She said,Drake then decided to grant the young girl's wish. "Very well Bonnie,I'll tell you all about it." Drake then explain how Evolution involves the complete transformation of a Pokémon not just physically,but psychologically as well based on a shift in their anatomy. He then explains the various ways a Pokémon can evolve. Aside from evolving naturally via EXP a Pokémon can evolve though elemental stones,trade,some along with a certain item while doing this,a strong bond,and especially some could evolve based on the time of day or a specific place. Bonnie was astonished by how much she's learning,she now knew there's more to evolution then meets the eyes.

Meanwhile Officer Jenny then sees a small blinking light on Spewpa's body. She then picks it off and realizes what it is. "What's that?" Serena asked. "A homing device. Dolan must have planted it on Spewpa in case he lost his cargo." Officer Jenny explained. "So Dolan-" said Clemont. "Could be already looking for it." Drake interrupted while looking out the window. "We can't let him find it and take it back." Ash stated until Drake came up with a plan. "Actually...we can"

"what!" Everyone said shockingly,Drake couldn't be serious as to just give Dolan back Spewpa. "Yeah...let's do it." Drake said. "You're Kidding?!" Ash said not believing what he's stating to do. "Look now that we know Dolan is already looking for Spewpa,we now have the advantage." Drake said. "So I'm assuming you have a plan?" Officer Jenny asked. "Simple,we put the cage back to where we found it along with Spewpa,Dolan finds it,and he will lead us to hideout where he keeps all the cargo he's got." Drake explained. "It a nice plan but we can't put Spewpa in harms way." Officer Jenny said. "So we use decoy instead." Drake said. "It's still too risky." Jenny argue. "Look,I know where you're coming from and I agree as well,but in situations like these,there is no such thing as a risk-free plan." Drake explain. Officer Jenny was still hesitant about what Drake is suggesting. "Look if we pull this off perfectly we get Dolan,save the Pokémon,and no one else will ever be hurt by him ever again." Officer Jenny knew now there is no other way. "*sight* ok but we're still using a decoy." Officer Jenny said. "No problem,now according to the Pokedex Spewpa are commonly around one foot in height so which one of our Pokémon is at one foot?" Everyone shook their heads as they knew none of their are one foot. "Well the closest to one foot is Pikachu and Chespin." Ash stated. "True,but Chespin's body is more slender to Spewpa than Pikachu's." Drake said then looked at Clemont. "Clemont,you don't have to do this if you don't want to." Drake said "You said it's the only way,then it's the only way." Clemont then released Chespin and explained the plan to him and at first he was scared about this but Clemont was able to calm him down and get him to agree.

"Now we need to get Chespin into character." Drake stated. "I can help with that." Serena said as she shows a pink accessories box and took Chespin to get him ready. While getting Chespin ready Drake said "Alright so how do we follow Dolan without losing him mid chase." He said "Leave that to me." Clemont then took out a device and put the tracker inside. "Alright so with this we should be able to track the radio waves coming from the chip. When Dolan picks Chespin up and drives aways he can follow using this." Clemont said. After Chespin was done they then put the chip on the disguised Chespin.

After putting the cage with Chespin in it everyone then waited for Dolan to show up. After five minutes a jeep finally showed up and out came a large man with a big nose in a red vest,grey shirt,green pants,and black boots. He was also wearing a hat with goggles attached with them. Accompanying him was a large rabbit Pokémon with grey skin and abnormally large ears. He then pick up the with cage and drove off. They then follow him along the road and into the forest with Officer Jenny way ahead of them. Suddenly Clemont's device malfunction and exploded. "Aww man" Clemont said looking at his precious invention. "We must be close by at least." Drake said. They then followed the path to a mountain side,there they found a building out in the open. "Alright I'm gonna go around the building to find a way inside." Drake said. "Wait hang on." Ash said "Froakie come on out." He then released the Bubble Frog and continue. "Go check the inside of that building to see if the coast is clear." Froakie then went and climbed to the roof of the building only to see nobody except the captured Pokémon in cages. Froakie then gave the all clear and Drake made his way around to the side of the building looking for a way in. Meanwhile Ash and others walked ahead when suddenly a net triggers underneath Serena,Clemont,and Bonnie.

"ASH!" They said while dangling from a tree.

Ash tries to save them when suddenly someone appeared in front of him. "Hahaha so it was you who has my bounty." Dolan said then continued . "I realized earlier that this Spewpa a fake and the real one is right there." He said as he pointed at Spewpa who was perched on Ash's shoulder. "Alright set all the Pokémon free Dolan!" Ash spat out. Dolan just laughed before speaking. "Do you know why I specialize in Vivillion?" Ash didn't respond instead just stood his ground. "It's because their Wing Patterns while have beauty in them people are just obsessed with them. That's why I catch them if anybody wants a rare Vivillion with the right pattern I'm the man you go." Dolan said. Ash still stood his ground and in disgust,this guy only sees Vivillion as profit and Ash wouldn't standby and let it happen. "Now hand over the Spewpa now kid!" Dolan said. "Never gonna happen." Ash said. "Very well,I'll just take it and leave you and yours friends in a hole where you will never be missed." He threaten as his Pokémon stood in front of him. Ash then decided to scan it with his Pokedex.

"Diggersby,The Digging Pokémon,and the evolved form of Bunnelby. As powerful as an excavator,its ears can reduce dense bedrock to finished it lounges lazily."

"Froakie let's go." Ash chose as he notice Diggersby is part Ground type so it should Even up the odds with a water type.


Ash vs. Dolan: one on one

"Diggersby use mud shot!" Diggersby then charged and fired several shots at Froakie. "Quick dodge it" Froakie then dodge all the mud shots with his superior speed. "Use Double Slap." Diggers by then charged its ears to attack Froakie. "Jump up and use Bubble." Froakie then jump upward to avoid the Double Slap and managed to use a Successful Bubble attack,pushing Diggersby back.

"Grr Diggersby use Dig." Diggersby then dug underground while Froakie was unsure where he will pop out from. Suddenly Diggersby popped from underneath Froakie causing damage. The attack sent Froakie back towards Ash. "Froakie are you ok?" Froakie struggled for a bit and got up,the attack did much more damage then he thought. "Use Dig again and follow it up with Double Slap." Diggersby then went underground again. "Focus and get ready Froakie." Froakie nodded and waited there Ash notice a rumbling from behind Froakie. "Quick behind you,use your Frubbles to restrain it." Diggersby then popped out and tried to use Double Slap but Froakie then dodge to the side and threw its Frubbles at the large rabbit,immobilizing it

"huh,what!" Dolan screamed out "Alright finish this with Water Pulse." Froakie then charged a ball of water but instead of throwing it he charged in and hit Diggersby with it head on. The attack sent Diggersby back to Dolan,fainted.

"IMPOSSIBLE!" Dolan said.


"Its over Dolan let the Vivillion go!" Ash commanded. "I will not let some goody two-shoes brat tell me what to do!" Dolan said as he took out a baton and walked slowly towards Ash when some thing else happened. The roof of the Storage building opened up and out went the Vivillion that Dolan captured into the sky.

"WHAT NOO,GET BACK HERE!" He screamed until he felt a knot around his wrist,there Officer Jenny tried to restrain him. "Its over Dolan." She said. "I say when it's over!" He pull back hard enough to make Officer Jenny let go of the rope. Dolan then approach her with his Baton until he got punched in the face.

"Hello" Drake smirked "You? You released them! You're gonna pay for this." He said. Officer Jenny tried to step forward but Drake stopped her. Then he looked back at Dolan. "Take your shot." Drake said Dolan then charged at him while swinging his baton but Drake was able to dodge he easy. He then took out his Staff which he was carrying on his back and twisted it counter-clockwise to the two pieces attached together by the cable. Dolan tried to rush him again but Drake jumped backwards and use his Staff to throw one piece around Dolan's baton and swiping it out of his hand.

Spewpa saw how brave this trainer was and knew what kind of person he was. It was there he jumped to the ground and started glowing again. "Woah its-" Ash said then it stopped revealing a Vivillion in its place. On its wings was the unique pattern of a poke ball. "Vivillion!" It said.

Meanwhile Dolan was then kick in the chest after trying to punch Drake in the face,pushing him back. "Grrr what are you?" He said. "Me? I'm just a guy who hates bullies." Drake replied back. Dolan was about to charge again. When he heard something else. From above Vivillion was right above him using Spore making him drowsy.

"Huh..hey..wants...happening...hang...on what's that?" Said the drowsy criminal as he saw something running towards him. There Drake was charging at him and managed to do a Front Flip Kick on the back of his head hard enough to knock him out. "That's for nearly running me over...scum." Drake panted out trying to catching his breath. From there everyone was left hanging their mouths open including Officer Jenny.

"What?" Drake asked

"h-h-how" Clemont studded. "That was amazing. You totally kicked that guys's butt." Bonnie said. "Wow I have to say impressive Mr. Ketchem." Officer Jenny clarified. "He's all yours Officer." Drake said. Officer Jenny nodded and arrested the unconscious criminal. She then thanked everyone for their hard work but Drake had one last thing to asked. "Well all that's left is to see who's Dolan's clientele is." He said. "Leave that up to me and the police force. You and everyone else here have done enough capturing him. Go enjoy the rest of your Journey. And thank you for your services Drake." She said then drove off.

"Well now what?" Ash asked. "Well let's head to the Pokémon Center. I'm pretty famished after all that fighting." Drake said while everyone laughed at his suggestion. As they were about to start walking Vivillion then approached Drake from the front.

"Hey Vivillion thanks for helping us catching Dolan." Drake said.

"Vil,vil,ion" it said

"really?" Drake asked while everyone wondered what they were talking about. "Vivillion" it said happily. Drake then took out a Poké ball and Vivillion touch the button sucking it in. There the Poké ball ding instantly and Drake looked at his new companion.

"Ha,guess I got a Vivillion guys." Drake said while everyone congratulated him on his capture. Drake then released Vivillion to spend some time with him. "I promise we will have a great time together Vivillion." He said.

"Vivillion" it said happily as the group then head out of the forest and into the road towards the Pokémon Center.
