Ash's Pokemon Journey
Summary: This story is about how I think that ash's journey should have gone through, Kanto, Orange Islands, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and Unova. Smart, a psychic and an Aura user (He'll find out about being a psyphic and Aura user later). I do not own pokemon.
Note: I am not doing the Kalos Region. So fairy pokemon and mega evolutions don't exist.
Chapter 47
The family of Lugia
After the Whirl Cup tournament was over, the gang had headed over to Silver Rock Isle, the fourth island of the Whirl Islands. The gang had decided that it was time to locate the Lugia they saw on their way to Blue Point Isle. When they arrived at a city called Kasado City, they found out that all the jewellery in the shops was made out of pure silver and in the shape of the silver wing. There was also food in the shape of the silver wing. Ash thought that everything looked great, but they didn't compare to his real silver wing. The reason why everything was in the shape of the silver wing, was because long ago some sailor's ship sank in a terrible storm and just when they were about to die, a mysterious pokemon saved their lives. After saving the sailor's lives the mysterious pokemon left behind a silver wing, which is why everyone on Silver Rock Isle is obsessed with the silver wing.
When they finished visiting Kasado City, they headed over to a long tunnel, which headed to another island called Ogi Isle. Once they got to Ogi Isle they found a very big surprise there; Ritchie and his Pikachu, Sparky were there. Ash and Ritchie were happy to see each other again because they hadn't seen each other since the pokemon league in Kanto. The two Pikachu's were happy to see each other too. "So Ritchie what brings you here?" asked Ash. Ritchie explained that he had heard rumours of a mysterious pokemon lurking around Ogi Isle and came to see if the rumours were true. "That's why we are here too," said Ash "the truth is we know what the pokemon is; it is a Lugia". "What, really?" said Ritchie, in surprise, "I've read about Lugia, but how do you know that it's a Lugia?" Ash explained to Ritchie about seeing its shadow and hearing its cry at Blue Point Isle. "And the reason why I recognize it as a Lugia is because I have a Lugia of my own". Ash released Lugia from his pokeball.
Ritchie and Sparky could not believe their eyes once they saw Ash's Lugia. "Wow Ash, how in the world did you obtain a Lugia?" asked Ritchie. Ash explained to Ritchie about meeting his Lugia's parent in the Orange Islands and about getting his Lugia when it was only a baby. "Wow Ash," said Ritchie "you are so lucky to have gone through something like that". "Let me tell you something Ritchie," said Ash "at that time Misty, Tomo, Tracey, who was our companion in the Orange Islands, and I went through a lot of things, before I obtained my Lugia". "Ash is right," said Misty "we had gone through many strange adventures through the Orange Islands and here in the Johto region". "Wow I'm jealous of you guys" said Ritchie.
At that moment, Ash's Lugia dived into the ocean and started to swim about. "Lugia must have wanted to have a swim for a while" said Misty. "Well I don't blame Lugia for wanting to swim in the ocean," said Brock "I mean he's been swimming in a big lakes at Prof Oak's lately". Ash looked around the area. "Since there are no people here," he said "he can swim and fly around here easily without anyone seeing him". "Has he not been able to swim in the ocean lately?" asked Ritchie. "Well he has been in the ocean a couple of times before," said Ash "but we try and make sure that no one, apart from us, is around while he's in the ocean. I mean if everyone saw my Lugia, someone would try to steal him from me". Ritchie understood.
Ash's Lugia was happy being in the ocean and started to cry out happily. But then the gang heard a cry that sounded like Lugia, only smaller. "Did you guys hear that?" asked Brock. "I did," said Ash "that sounded like a baby Lugia; my Lugia made that sound when he was a baby". "I think it came from that island" said Ritchie, pointing to an island near where they were. "Then I suggest that we head over there to investigate" said Ash. The others agreed with him. They found a rowboat and paddled over to the island, and Lugia stayed close by to them.
What the gang didn't know was that trouble was around. Some Team Rocket grunts were snooping around in the ocean searching for something. These grunts were working for a man named Dr Namba. Dr Namba was a scientist of Team Rocket and he was cruel, power hungry and violent as Giovanni was. What Dr Namba loved to do was use experiments on pokemon, and he never cared if his experiments were harming pokemon. Dr Namba had heard rumours about a Lugia living around the Whirl Islands and had come to the Whirl Islands to see if the rumours were true. And he planned was to capture Lugia and use it for his experiments and use Lugia's power for his own evil deeds.
On the island, where the gang were heading, a boy was swimming in the sea and he had two pokemon with him; a Lanturn and a baby Lugia. "Hey let's play chase Silver" said the boy. Silver was the baby Lugia's name. Apparently the boy was friends with the baby Lugia. Just then they heard the sound of a Lugia. "What was that?" asked the boy "I mean that didn't sound like your parent Silver. It sounded like there is another Lugia around here". Silver began making crying out, which meant it wanted to see the other Lugia. "All right then Silver, let's go see if there is another Lugia here" said the boy.
Silver and the boy were just about to find out where the cry was from, but suddenly they got surrounded by some Team Rocket grunts. "Hand over that baby Lugia kid" said one of the grunts. "Never!" shouted the boy. He, Silver and Lanturn began to swim away from the grunts, but the grunt weren't giving up that easily and began to chase them.
Meanwhile the gang had just arrived on the island. Just then Ash's Lugia began to cry out in worry. "What's wrong?" asked Ritchie. "Lugia can sense that trouble is brewing around here" said Ash. Lugia started to fly in another direction, and the gang followed him. "Since Lugia is getting upset," said Ash "I reckon that there is a baby Lugia around here". "If that's the case we better hurry" said Ritchie.
At that time, the boy, Silver and Lanturn were still being chased; right now a black submarine was following them. But then the gang turned up. "Quick come to shore at once!" Ash shouted to the boy. The boy heard Ash and he and the pokemon headed over to shore. Two people came out of the submarine; a blonde woman, and a green haired man. "It's Cassidy and Butch!" shouted Misty. Cassidy and Butch were members of Team Rocket; Ash, Tomo, Misty and Brock had met them three times before; once in Kanto, once in the Orange Islands and a third time some time ago. "Now hand over the two Lugias or else" said Cassidy. She and Butch noticed Ash's Lugia as well as Silver. "You're not taking these Lugias anywhere!" shouted Ash. "So be it then kid" said Cassidy. She sent out a Houndour to battle and Butch sent out a Hitmontop. Ash sent out Croconaw to battle and Ritchie sent out one of his new pokemon; a Pupitar, who he nicknamed Cruise. "Houndour use flamethrower" said Cassidy. "Use triple kick Hitmontop" said Butch. Houndour blew a flame and Hitmontop got ready to kick. "Croconaw use hydro pump" said Ash. "Cruise use dark pulse" said Ritchie. Croconaw fired a strong blast of water at Houndour and Cruise fired a powerful dark purple energy at Hitmontop. Houndour and Hitmontop fainted from the attacks at once. "All right then," said Cassidy "we will just have to take the baby Lugia by force then".
Cassidy and Butch were just about to charge, with their submarine. But then the submarine got tackled; it was Luka on her boat, coming to the rescue. "Okay Lugia, use blizzard" Ash said to his Lugia. Lugia fired a powerful snow blizzard at the submarine. "We will have to retreat" Cassidy shivered. "Yes, but we will be back" said Butch. Cassidy and Butch left, in their submarine, under water.
The boy was grateful and introduced himself as Oliver, and he introduced Silver as well. "I was right about it being a baby Lugia" said Ash, stroking Silver on the cheek. Silver and Ash's Lugia got acquainted with each other. "I'm surprised that Lugia is yours Ash" said Oliver. "Yeah I got my Lugia when he was still a baby" replied Ash. "So Oliver, how did you meet Silver?" asked Luka. Oliver explained that one day he was swimming out in the ocean with his Lanturn. But then suddenly they got caught in a bad storm. "Lanturn and I tried to get back to shore, but the waves were too rough for us and it seemed that I was going to drown. But then we got rescued by Silver and its parent". "Wow, you've had quite an experience there" said Ritchie. "Yeah," said Oliver "and I've been friends with Silver ever since. I've never shown him to anyone before, because someone bad may try to catch it". "Oh we understand, because we have met terrible people ourselves before," said Misty "but don't worry, we will not reveal your secret". Luka, Ritchie, Ash, Tomo and Brock nodded in agreement. Oliver felt relieved with them. "Say Oliver, where is Silver's parent?" asked Ash.
Before Ash's question was answered, Silver's parent burst out from the ocean, and it looked angry. "I think that Lugia is angry, because we are strangers," said Brock "and it fears that we are here to harm it and its baby". At that moment Luka's silver wing began to glow red, which was prove to show that Lugia was angry. Ash's Lugia spoke up to the adult Lugia, in his pokelanguage, that Ash, Misty, Brock, Tomo, Ritchie and Luka were his friends and that they were not here to harm Silver. He also said that Ash was his trainer and was someone that Lugia can trust. The mother Lugia listened to Ash's Lugia and then she calmed down. Luka's silver wing stepped glowing red, because Lugia wasn't angry anymore. "Phew, that Lugia trusts us now" said Ash. "That's a relieve" said Ritchie.
Ash's Lugia and the Lugia family started to swim together in the ocean. "Hey let's go swimming with them" Ash suggested. The others liked that idea. Luka gave Ash, Brock, Misty, Tomo, Ritchie and Oliver some diving gear. Pikachu and Sparky got some diving gear too, because they wanted to join in. Luka stayed on the boat with Togepi and Growlithe. Ash, Tomo, Misty, Brock, Ritchie, Oliver and the two Pikachus enjoyed watching the Lugias underwater. Ash's Lugia placed Ash on his back; Lugia wanted to swim with Ash. Silver joined in with Ash and his Lugia. Silver's mother could tell that the Lugia and his trainer had a very strong bond, and she was relieved to know that Ash was a good human. Back on the boat, Luka was admiring her silver wing, and she was hoping that her great-grandfather was watching the Lugia family up in heaven.
Meanwhile, deep down in the ocean, Jessie, James and Meowth were waiting for their orders. Dr Namba needed their help as well as Cassidy's and Butch's. Only thing was that Jessie and James were not on good terms with Cassidy and Butch; they were rivals and they really hated each other. "I can't believe that Dr Namba asked you two to join us" said Cassidy. "For your information Cassidy," said Jessie "we sent fifty water pokemon to the boss the other day, and he was pleased with us for that". "Yeah, so there" said James. "Whatever" replied Butch. Just then Dr Namba told everyone to stand by. "We are going after the baby Lugia again" he said.
Back on the shore, the gang were spending more time with Oliver and Silver. Silver's mother was out searching for more food for Silver, and Luka had left to stock up on fuel and supplies for her boat. Silver was playing with Lanturn and Ash's Lugia. Just then everyone noticed another baby Lugia in the ocean. "I've never seen another baby Lugia around here before" said Oliver. Ash stared at the other baby Lugia. "That's not a real Lugia," he said "that's a fake, metal Lugia". Silver was already swimming to the fake Lugia. "No, don't go near that thing Silver" said Oliver. But it was too late; as soon as Silver reached the fake metal Lugia, it automatically transformed into a cage and trapped Silver. "Oh no!" gasped Oliver "we need to help Silver at once". Oliver swam towards Silver, with Lanturn, and the gang followed in the row boat. Ash's Lugia was already at the cage. "Lugia try to break that cage apart with steel wing!" commanded Ash.
Before Lugia could do anything, he suddenly got zapped by a thunderbolt attack. "Where did that come from?" said Ash. At that moment Jessie, James and Meowth turned up. "Well done Chinchou" said James, rubbing his Chinchou's head. The gang were surprised to see that James had a Chinchou. "What are you three doing here?" demanded Misty. "To grab the baby Lugia of course" replied Jessie. Then Cassidy and Butch appeared. "Don't think that you are the only ones grabbing the Lugia" said Cassidy. "Yeah, because Dr Namba gave orders to us first" said Butch. Cassidy sent out her Houndour and told it to use smokescreen. Houndour's smokescreen was so thick that the gang could not see what was happening. In the confusion Team Rocket placed the captured Silver into the submarine and then they disappeared under the water in their submarine.
When the smokescreen cleared, Oliver and the gang noticed that Team Rocket and Silver were gone. "Where did they go?" asked Oliver "and where's Silver?" Ash checked on his Lugia to see if he was okay. "This is not good" he said.
Oliver, Ritchie and the gang were not happy that Silver was captured by Team Rocket. Oliver was crying because he wanted Silver back. When Luka came back from gathering fuel and supplies, the gang told her what had happened. "Oh no," said Luka "what about Silver's mother?" At that moment the mother Lugia appeared. She noticed that her child was missing and was not happy. Ash's Lugia told her about Team Rocket and that they kidnapped Silver. When the mother Lugia heard that, she became so angry that she began screeching like mad. While angry, she made a storm appear; Lugia had the ability to create storms as well as calming storms. She was even firing the move aeroblast everywhere. Oliver tried to apologize to Silver, but Lugia was too angry to listen to him. "We better take shelter," said Luka "this storm is terrible". "Lets" replied Brock. Everyone took shelter on higher ground, including Ash's Lugia.
Under the ocean, in an underwater Team Rocket base, Dr Namba was examining the captured baby Lugia. "This baby Lugia is quite unique," he said "but we will need its parent and this baby Lugia will help us". What Dr Namba's plan was, was to use the baby Lugia as bait to capture the adult Lugia. Some rocket grunts were watching from a screen of how angry the adult Lugia was. Dr Namba was enjoying the scene. "I love looking at rage," he said "that power would be great for my plans". Dr Namba was one of those crazy people, who believed that a pokemon's strength came from its anger. "Get ready to capture the adult Lugia". The grunts got ready at once.
Back on shore, everyone was worried about what was happening. It was night time and the storm, made by the mother Lugia, was bad. "We need to do something," said Luka "otherwise things will just get worse". Her silver wing was still glowing red because of Lugia's anger. "Yes, but what can we do?" said Misty. "There is one thing that we should do," said Ash "we need to get Silver back from Team Rocket". "Yeah, but how?" said Brock "I mean we don't know where Team Rocket is now. And even if we did, it might be difficult because Team Rocket wouldn't give up Silver that easily". "I know," said Ash "and that's why we need help. And I know who can help us".
Ash opened up his back pack and took out his necklace, which held a master ball. "Hey that's Mewtwo's ball isn't it?" asked Tomo. "Exactly," said Ash "we will need Mewtwo's help for fighting against Team Rocket". "Who's Mewtwo?" asked Ritchie. Tomo explained that Mewtwo was a legendary pokemon, who Ash captured months ago. Misty explained that Ash had three legendary pokemon; Lugia, Mewtwo and Celebi. Ritchie, Oliver and Luka were speechless from hearing that.
Ash enlarged his master ball, placed both his hands on it and closed his eyes in concentration. "What's Ash doing?" asked Luka. Brock explained that Mewtwo was a psychic pokemon, and that Ash had psychic powers too. "What Ash is doing now is contacting Mewtwo through telepathy" said Misty. Oliver, Ritchie and Luka were amazed that Ash had that sort of power.
Somewhere far away, Mewtwo was flying over an area in Johto. He was wearing a long dark brown cloak, with a hood and a dark purple mask on his face. The cloak and mask was to hide his whole body and face, so that no one would see what he really was. It was also to disguise himself from Team Rocket, in case they ever searched for him again. Just then he heard Ash contacting him in his mind and stopped flying for a bit. "Mewtwo I need your help" said Ash. "What is wrong Ash?" asked Mewtwo. "Team Rocket is causing trouble in the Johto region again," said Ash "and this time they are planning to capture a family of the legendary pokemon Lugia. We need your help of saving the Lugia family and stopping Team Rocket". "I will come at once," said Mewtwo "where is your location?" "I'm at an Island called Ogi Isle, in the Whirl Islands" said Ash. "I've got it" said Mewtwo, and he started to fly again, "I'm on my way now Ash". Then he and Ash finished their contacting.
Ash finished his contacting with Mewtwo stopped using his psychic powers. "Mewtwo is on his way to help us" said Ash. "That's good to know," said Brock "but what should we do about Lugia?" Ash's Lugia took to the skies to speak to the mother Lugia. "We need to speak to Lugia too," said Ash "we have to convince that that we will get Silver back from Team Rocket". "But its dangerous Ash," said Misty "especially with Lugia raging on like this". "I know it's dangerous," said Ash "but at this rate, Lugia might flood not only Ogi Isle, but the whole Whirl Islands". "I agree with Ash," said Ritchie "we should talk to Lugia". Luka agreed too and offered to help.
Luka drove Ash and Ritchie, on her boat, to where Lugia was. Ash's Lugia was already near the mother Lugia and was trying to get her to stop firing aeroblast. "Lugia you have to stop these storms" Ritchie called out. "I know that you are upset because Silver has been kidnapped," said Ash "but we promise that we will save Silver and bring him back to you". "Please believe us Lugia" said Ritchie. Ash's Lugia spoke to the mother Lugia, saying that her child will be saved and to trust Ash. The mother Lugia stared at Ash's Lugia and then stared at Ash and Ritchie. Ash and Ritchie felt worried that the mother Lugia still didn't trust them. But then the mother Lugia did calm down and stopped the storm, and Luka's silver wing stopped glowing red. "Lugia has calmed down" Luka said to Ash and Ritchie. "That means she trusts us" said Ritchie. "What a relieve" said Ash. Ash's Lugia was also relieved that the mother Lugia had calmed down too. The mother Lugia flew off to try and search for her child from in the air. 'Lugia, we will not let you down' thought Ash.
The next morning, the gang began thinking about how to find Silver and Team Rocket. "If we don't find Team Rocket soon, they might do something else bad next" said Luka. "Yeah but the question is, where are they now?" said Oliver. "If you ask me," said Ritchie "I reckon that Team Rocket may not be hiding Silver somewhere on land. I think that they might be hiding somewhere in the ocean". "That makes sense actually," said Ash "I mean they did escape in a submarine, when they captured Silver. And Team Rocket is known for having secret bases everywhere". "That's true" said Misty.
Suddenly a flash of brown made its way towards everyone. "What is that?" asked Brock. The dark brown figure flew in front of the gang, and Mewtwo revealed himself to the gang, by taking off his mask and cloak. "Mewtwo, it's good to see you," said Ash "and that cloak and mask suit you". "Thank you Ash," said Mewtwo "and I came as quick as I could. So what has happened?" Ash explained to Mewtwo about Team Rocket kidnapping a baby Lugia named Silver. "We fear that Team Rocket may want to capture the mother Lugia too, which is why we have to stop them". "I understand," said Mewtwo "and I will gladly help. What do you need me to do first?" "We need to find Team Rocket's where about," said Ash "and we think that there's a chance that Team Rocket have a secret base in the ocean. Do you think that you can locate where Team Rocket is for us Mewtwo?" "Leave it to me Ash" said Mewtwo.
Mewtwo placed his cloak and mask onto Luka's boat, and then he dived into the water. Mewtwo swam down into the ocean to search for Team Rocket's base. He used the move barrier to be able to breath under water. So far, he found nothing but water pokemon. But then he found a dome shaped base on the ocean floor. "I have found Team Rocket's base," Mewtwo said to himself "I must tell Ash at once". He started to swim up to the surface at once.
In Team Rocket's underwater base, Dr Namba was giving orders to all the Team Rocket grunts. "It's time to capture the adult Lugia," he said "prepare to raise the underwater base". "Yes sir!" said all of the grunts, pressing a lot of buttons and levers on computers. Soon the underwater base began to rise to the surface.
Back at Luka's boat, Mewtwo told everyone of his discovery. "Since we now know that there is a Team Rocket's base down there," said Ritchie "we just need to think what to do now, like how to get in and things". Before anyone came up with any ideas; Luka noticed that something was coming out of the ocean. "Hey what's that?" she asked. "It's Team Rocket's base" said Mewtwo. Everyone stared at it. "Okay, Luka get us to land at once," said Ash "we need to get over there at once". The other humans agreed with Ash. Luka drove her ship to shore at once.
Meanwhile, just after the Team Rocket base had risen up to the surface, Silver was taken out of the base and onto the land, still in the cage. Dr Namba's plan to use Silver to call the adult Lugia was put into action. Dr Namba, Cassidy, Butch, Jessie, James and Meowth were watching everything happening outside from a screen inside the base. "Not long now," said Dr Namba "soon we shall have Lugia in our grasp. And then I can put my plans with Lugia into action". "Don't forget about the kids, who are friends with the baby Lugia" said Jessie. "Yeah, there is no doubt that they will come to try and save it" sad James. "Ah those kids don't scare me," said Dr Namba, confidently, "but just in case they do stand in my way, you can deal with them Cassidy and Butch". "It will be our pleasure sir" said Cassidy. She and Butch got ready to fight, to stop the gang from foiling the plans.
At that time Luka docked her boat on the shore. Ash, Misty, Brock, Tomo and Ritchie got off the boat to help Silver. Misty left Togepi with Luka for safety. Oliver stayed on the boat just in case something happened. Ash told Mewtwo and Lugia to stay put too, just in case. Mewtwo had his cloak and mask back on, just in case Team Rocket would see him.
Ash, Tomo, Misty, Brock and Ritchie were now running towards Silver's cage. At that moment Silver's mother turned up and she was flying towards Silver's cage. "Oh no," said Ritchie "Lugia will get captured too if she gets near Silver's cage". "It's a trap Lugia!" shouted Misty. "Stay away Lugia!" shouted Tomo. Suddenly a flamethrower stopped the gang in their tracks; it was Cassidy and Butch with their Houndour and Hitmontop. Houndour and Hitmontop had some metal headgears on their foreheads. "Sorry but you haven't won the war yet" said Butch. "Now to check out our pumped up pokemon" said Cassidy. Cassidy pressed a button on a control thing and then the headgears, on Houndour and Hitmontop, turned orange, and Houndour and Hitmontop looked mad. "There's something weird about those headgears" said Ash. "Yeah, so we better be careful" said Ritchie. Houndour released another flamethrower, but this time it seemed more powerful. "Whoa!" gasped Ritchie "their pokemon seem more powerful than ever". "I have a nasty feeling that it has something to do with those weird headgears" said Ash. "You're right about that kid," said Cassidy "these new gadgets make our pokemon angry, and then the pokemon become stronger in their rage mode". "You have to be kidding me!" shouted Ash "making a pokemon stronger just by angering it is absolutely nonsense!" "Say what you want kid," said Butch "but this headgears really do work well". Tomo sent out Growlithe to battle and Ritchie sent out Zippo, who was now a Chameleon. Butch ordered his Hitmontop to use triple kick on both Growlithe and Zippo. Because of those headgears, Hitmontop's triple kick was powerful and both Growlithe and Zippo were knocked out. Ritchie returned Zippo at once and Tomo asked Growlithe if he was okay.
At that moment, the mother Lugia was getting closer to the cage that held Silver. Ash, Tomo, Ritchie, Misty and Brock tried to get the mother Lugia to stay away from the cage; otherwise she would have been caught. But the mother Lugia would not listen and kept on flying towards the cage. Ash and Ritchie asked their Pikachus to use thunderbolt to keep Lugia away from the cage. But Lugia was too stubborn to understand. She fired aeroblast to fight back and the gang and their pokemon were knocked out. Then Lugia made it to Silver's cage, telling Silver that she was here now. But as soon as she landed on the cage, she got trapped but a machine.
Dr Namba was happy with the success of capturing the adult Lugia. "Now my plan was using Lugia's power will soon be put to action" he laughed. He had the two Lugias brought into the base at once. Cassidy and Butch went back into the base too, and then the Team Rocket base went back into the ocean. Ash and the gang were captured too and they were placed in a cage inside the base.
Mewtwo, Ash's Lugia, Oliver and Luka saw everything that had happened. Mewtwo turned to Lugia. "It's our turn to fight Team Rocket now" he said, using barrier. He and Lugia dived into the ocean at once. Oliver and Lanturn went too. Luka told them to be careful since Team Rocket was dangerous.
In Team Rocket's base, Dr Namba was admiring the Lugia family. "Jessie, James," he said "have the baby Lugia sent into another room. I want Lugia to become angrier for my experiment". "Yes sir" said Jessie and James. Jessie, James and Meowth left with the baby Lugia at once, which of course did anger the mother Lugia.
Meanwhile the gang had woken up in their cage and realized that their pokeballs had been separated from them. "We have to do something," said Ash "now that Team Rocket has captured the adult Lugia now; there's no telling what they will do with them". "Yes but what can we do?" asked Misty "I mean there's no way out of this cage". Tomo saw the pokeballs were on a stand away from the cage. "It's time for me to put my psychic powers to good use" said Ash. He held out his right arm and his eyes started to turn blue. Ritchie was amazed by Ash's psychic power. Ash was just about to lift the pokeballs off the stand, but then someone was coming and Ash had to stop.
Dr Namba entered the room and introduced himself to the gang. "What are you planning to do with the Lugia?" asked Misty. "I will gladly tell you" said Dr Namba "I shall be controlling Lugia's power. After all pokemon are supposed to be serving us humans after all". The gang were shocked by his words. "Pokemon are not meant to serve humans like slaves!" shouted Ash. "That's right," said Misty "we are supposed to live with pokemon in harmony and peace as friends". Dr Namba laughed. "Typical kids," he said "nature was created for humans to control. Besides I am far more superior to pokemon. After all I created those headgears that were on Houndour and Hitmontop; they make the pokemon angry and that's why they were stronger than ever. I believe that the angrier they are, the more powerful they become". The gang were cross. "How dare you do that to a pokemon!" shouted Misty. "What you're doing is wrong;" said Ritchie "forcing pokemon to be angry is terrible!" "Yeah that is cruel!" shouted Brock. Dr Namba snickered and didn't care at all.
Meanwhile, Mewtwo and Oliver made it into the underwater base by some air vents. Ash's Lugia was too big to get into the air vents, so he stayed outside. "We should search for Ritchie and the others first, before finding Silver" said Oliver. Mewtwo agreed with that; he still had his cloak and mask on. "Those Team Rocket grunts have better not harmed Ash" said Mewtwo. Just then a Team Rocket grunt spotted them and was about to report them, but then Mewtwo used confusion to knock him out unconscious. "Your psychic powers are impressive Mewtwo" said Oliver "now we better hurry".
At that time Ash was demanding Dr Namba to tell them what he was going to do to Lugia. "I'm making Lugia very angry too," he said "and once its rage go higher, and then its power will be off the charts and unstoppable; perfect for me to use in my plans. And now I shall place the head gears on your pokemon for another experiment". Ash's Pikachu, Tomo's Growlithe and Sparky were trapped on a metal stand and Dr Namba was about to place the weird headgears on them. Ash was getting angrier. "You will do no such thing Namba!" he shouted.
Ash stuck out his right arm and then he glowed blue. Ash lifted Dr Namba into the air, with his psychic powers, and then flung him into a wall and knocked him out unconscious. "That couldn't happen to a nicer villain" said Misty. The others agreed.
At that moment Mewtwo and Oliver entered the room. Mewtwo used psycho cut to break the cage and break the computer. Ash and the others were free from the cage and the pokemon were freed from the stand. The gang grabbed their pokeballs at once. "Okay now it's time to free Silver and Lugia" said Oliver.
Everyone got out of the room to find Silver, but they got ambushed by Cassidy, Butch and the other Team Rocket grants. "You're not going anywhere" said Cassidy. She and Butch released Houndour and Hitmontop from their pokeballs. "We are not afraid of you" said Ritchie. He and Ash had their Pikachu's out to fight. Since Ash and Ritchie knew that their power was coming from the headgears, they made the two Pikachus aim for the headgears. The headgears got broken from the thunderbolt attacks. Cassidy and Butch were not happy with that. "Now get out of our way!" shouted Ash. Mewtwo frightened off the Team Rocket grunts with shadow ball attack. "Now to find Silver" said Ritchie. Ash told Mewtwo to find the mother Lugia and set her free from her prison. Mewtwo set off to find Lugia at once.
Oliver and the gang arrived to the room where Silver was held. The bad news was Dr Namba was there. "This Lugia is staying here with me" he said. "Give up Dr Namba!" shouted Misty. "Never!" replied Dr Namba. Dr Namba released an Electabuzz. Electabuzz had a headgear on its forehead as well. "Now I shall show you the rage power of my Electabuzz" he said. He twisted a few knobs on a control thing to make the anger of his Electabuzz very high. "We should head for that controller," Ritchie said to Ash "then Electabuzz will lose power". Ash agreed. Ash told his Pikachu to attack Electabuzz with iron tail to try and break off the head gear, and Ritchie told Sparky to head for the controller in Dr Namba's hand. While Pikachu was distracting Electabuzz with iron tail, Sparky destroyed the controller with thunderbolt. The headgear was useless after the controller was broken. Then Pikachu and Sparky knocked out Electabuzz with a double thunder attack. Dr Namba couldn't believe that he had lost. "I could this be?" he demanded "pokemon are stronger through rage!" "You're wrong Dr Numbskull," said Ash "the real power of pokemon comes through trust and heart". Dr Namba fainted on the spot from his defeat.
"Now to free Silver" said Ash. He told Silver to move to the back of the cage, so they could free him. Tomo released his Magby and Elekid from their pokeballs and told them to use rock smash on the cage. The cage broke apart from the rock smash attacks and Silver was free. Oliver hugged Silver, happy that Silver was okay. "How to get Silver back to his mum" said Ash.
Meanwhile, Mewtwo found the mother Lugia in another room. Jessie, James and Meowth were in charge of guarding Lugia, but Mewtwo sent them flying with psychic. "I'm going to get you out of your prisonment now Lugia" he said. He fired shadow ball attacks at the machines to destroy them, and Lugia was free. But Lugia was still mad that she was captured and separated from Silver and began firing aeroblast everywhere in the underwater base. The underwater base began to break apart and was taken to the surface at once. Mewtwo began firing shadow ball attacks at the base to destroy it too; he didn't want the grunts to stay within the Whirl Islands anymore.
At that moment Oliver and the gang arrived on the scene, with Silver. "Lugia we got Silver back" said Ash. Silver called out to his mum. The mother Lugia heard Silver's voice and stopped firing aeroblast attacks. "We are sorry that it took a while to get Silver back," said Ash "but we kept our promise". Lugia stared at the humans and realised that that they had kept their promise. "I think Lugia trusts us again" said Brock. The others were glad to know that.
Suddenly the destruction of the Team Rocket base was getting worse. "We need to get out of here!" shouted Brock. "I'll get us out of here" said Mewtwo. Mewtwo used teleport to teleport himself, the humans and the Lugia family out of the base. They got out just in time; the Team Rocket base exploded and was destroyed. Dr Namba and the grunts, who evacuated the base before it blew up, left the Whirl Islands in humiliation of their defeat.
Luka, Growlithe, Togepi and Ash's Lugia were happy to know that everyone was safe and that the Lugia family were okay. "I bet my great-grandfather in heaven is happy to know that the Lugia family are safe and I'm also sure he hopes that they will not get separated again" said Luka, holding her silver wing. Silver and his mother had to leave Ogi Isle for another destination, so that they wouldn't get captured again. Oliver was sad to see Silver leave. "Don't worry Oliver," said Ash "Silver will come back here gain when he grows up big and strong and old enough to be separated from his mum. You wait and see". Oliver agreed with Ash words. Everyone, including Mewtwo and Ash's Lugia, said goodbye to the Lugia family, until they were out of sight.
After the Lugia family left, Mewtwo got ready to leave too. "Are you still going to travel the world Mewtwo?" asked Ash. "Yes, there is still much for me to see and know about this world" said Mewtwo. Ash understood and then Mewtwo left. Ash returned Lugia to his pokeball for a good rest. Ritchie also said goodbye to the group; he wanted to stay in the Whirl Islands a bit more with Oliver. Ash explained that they were heading for Olivine City, so the gang had to say goodbye to Ritchie again. "I hope to battle you again someday Ritchie" said Ash. "So do I Ash" replied Ritchie. Luka got ready to take the gang to Transit Town, so they could catch a ferry back to Olivine City.
So with the Lugia family safe and that Dr Namba was no longer a nuisance in the Whirl Islands, Ash and the gang said goodbye to Ritchie and Oliver. The journey in the Whirl Islands was coming to its end.
So sorry for the long wait, I had things to do especially with my blog. I didn't want to have Butch having his name said wrong all the time; I found it a bit boring. I did say that Mewtwo would appear to help Ash in big emergencies. Celebi will appear in the Ho-oh chapter. I reckon that baby Lugia to grow up quick, because all animals grow up very quick, and so do pokemon. Thanks to everyone's votes on my poll; I know what starter pokemon, from Prof Oak and Prof Elm, Tomo will get. The vote is now closed.
