Ok, to clear up part of the story- if you go and look at the other stories I have written, there is not a single one that is pro-trainer. A few are neither, but of the 20 ones in pokemon, none idolize trainers. Most involve pokemon who are unhappy because of the actions of their trainers (the trainers are either cruel or simply don't understand what they are doing). So, in this story, few of the trainers are going to be good. Bugsy wasn't nasty in the TV show, but in this story he is. No, I'm not doing this because I like to change set facts to conform to my views. There is a reason and it will be explained later. As in not now, and not tomorrow, and probably not the day after that.
Sorry, but Ash actually won't try to get a fog badge in this chapter. I changed my mind, and I'll do that one last. In this chapter he'll try for a zephyr badge. Now, remember Dan's pidgeotto?
"Well, here I am," Ash said thoughtfully. He didn't have any electric pokemon, but Midnight knew thunderbolt, and Tsunami was part flying, which would help protect it from the flying attacks. Plus his new scizor would also be protected from flying attacks, and if he could just get sneasle to use the ice punch he had taught it with a TM, he'd have no problem!
Ash walked in, the picture of confidence. Seeing Falkner, he immediately challenged him.
Falkner smiled. "I've heard about you. You are said to have a pokegod on your team, an unbeatable one, correct?"
"Yeah! Nothing is stronger than Midnight!"
"I was recently given certain pokemon. I would like to challenge you to a six on six battle. Do you accept?"
Ash had six pokemon. Since Midnight was relied on to finish the battles after his other pokemon had fainted, the fewer pokemon that fought meant the less Midnight would have to battle. But he felt that Midnight was, to normal pokemon at least, virtually unbeatable, so it didn't matter much.
"I accept!"
What do you think will happen next? And can anyone guess what the pokemon Falkner is talking about are?
