Episode IIII

TRIP TO SCARLET CITY

PART I

Problem with the Pokémon

Jay Barial

Chapter One: Missing

Jay Barial, the newest Super Pokémon trainer, walked out of the Lost Forests, and headed to the next city, Scarlet City.

It started out when Jay left home with his Pokémon, Ultra. They captured a Double and Fire Kat. They ran into some trouble and met a girl named Agua. Then, they bumped into Team Rocket in the Lost Forests. They stole Fire Kat.

In the last episodes, Jay captured a Flame and a Talon. He fought the Lost Forests' gym leader, Dee, who started her own Pokémon journey.

Now, he headed to Scarlet City.

He walked along the road, when he realized, someone was following him.

"Agua, are you following us again?" asked Jay, as he turned around. "Or is this just the quickest way to Scarlet City?"

Agua, the water Pokémon trainer, glared at Jay. "This is the fastest way to Scarlet City. There's a gym there too!"

Ultra, who didn't stay in a Super Pokémon Ball a.k.a. Super Ball, looked at Agua happily.

"Fine," said Jay. "We'll separate when we enter Scarlet City." Jay continued walking.

"Wait for me Barial!" shouted Agua. She walked up to him.

As Jay and Agua started to enter the arch, which was at the entrance to the city, Ultra stopped for a second.

Jay turned around. "Come on Ultra."

Jay, Agua, and Ultra walked through the arch.

"See it wasn't that bad Ultra." Jay turned around to where Ultra was, and there stood nothing.

Jay reached for his Super Balls with Flame, Double, and Talon in them. Gone.

"Ultra and my other Pokémon are missing!" exclaimed Jay.

Agua gasped. "So are my Diver and Blob!"

"Where are the Pokémon?!" exclaimed Jay.

* * * *

Kelly, Mike, Nick, and their Fire Kat, Team Rocket, walked out of the Lost Forests. Their plan to attack the Lost Forests' gym had worked.

They had given Agua, an annoying little loser, a special technical machine to teach to her Pokémon. It was the technical machine Self-Destruct.

When Agua had called out her Pokémon, she used Self-Destruct, and the gym went in flames. Then, Team Rocket stole some of their Pokémon.

"Well, I think we did a pretty good job guys," said Fire Kat. "I guess since I joined the team, things have been looking up."

Kelly glared at Fire Kat. "You better shut up you stupid cat!" She kicked him hard. "You are probably holding us back from winning you little useless Pokémon! Come on, we're about to come into Scarlet City."

"Yeah," said Mike and Nick in unison.

As Team Rocket slipped into Scarlet City, Kelly noticed Fire Kat had disappeared.

"Hey," said Mike. "Where'd that useless cat go?!"

"All my Pokémon are missing," exclaimed Nick.

"As are mine," said Kelly. "I have a sinking feeling about this town."

Chapter Two: Chris

The Dangerous Pokémon Trainer

"If our Pokémon are missing," said Jay, "I bet I know who stole them."

"Team Rocket," said Agua. "They're always trying to ruin everyone's plans. Like when they taught my Pokémon the technical machine, Self Destruct."

"Team Rocket's plan really working?" wondered Jay. "The only reason they tricked you is because you aren't smart enough to realize that you were tricked-"

Agua grabbed Jay by his collar. "Take that back little man!"

"Children, I think you better stop fighting, and I'll explain everything."

Agua turned around, and spun Jay with her, and there stood an old man. Agua raised an eyebrow. "Who are you?"
"A friend," said the old man. "Let the other kid go."

"Yeah," said Jay.

Agua nodded and let Jay go. In unison, the both said, "Where did our Pokémon go?!"

"I'll explain," said the old man. "Come on, we can head to my place."

Jay and Agua nodded.

Jay, Agua, and the old man began to walk.

"In Scarlet City there is a gym leader, Chris," said the old man. "He has special mental powers. Chris seems to be the head person here. He runs the town. Chris can tell when one person, or Pokémon, enters town. But lately, Pokémon have been disappearing as the enter town. I have a feeling Chris has something to do with it. And now, any challengers that challenge him have all disappeared. I would advise you two not to challenge him."

"We have a problem," said Jay. "We can't challenge him without Pokémon."

As Jay, Agua, and the old man walked to the old man's house, the saw a large building with a strange Pokémon standing outside of it.

Jay held up his Pokédex.

"Fire Orb," said the Pokédex. "This evolved form of the Pokémon Orb can now use a number of psychic attacks, as well as more powerful flame attacks. Evolves into. . ."

"Grrr," growled Jay. "My Pokédex has been doing that a lot lately. It doesn't know what some Pokémon evolve into."

"That just means that the Pokémon evolves into a really rare Pokémon," said the old. "But I know how what it evolves into. It and three others are the only Pokémon here that aren't owned by Chris. And they're my Pokémon."

****WHO'S THAT POKéMON: RSLAO ROB?****

Chapter Three: The Decision

****IT'S SOLAR ORB! "Soooooolaaaaarrrr!"****

Jay, Agua, and the old man walked into the old man's house.

"So what does this Fire Orb evolve into?" asked Agua.

Jay and Agua took a seat.

"I should tell you about its previous form, Orb," said the old man. "Orb is a normal Pokémon. There are four Pokémon Orb could evolve into. One is Fire Orb. The other is Water Orb. There is also a Static Orb. And last, there is a Super Orb. Depending on which special gem you use on Orb, it will evolve into one of those four things."

"So, what's Fire Orb's evolved form?" asked Agua.

The old man held up a Super Ball. "I'll show you. Super Ball, go!" He threw a Super Ball onto the ground and out appeared a large sun-like creature.

"Solar Orb," said Jay's Pokédex. "A sun ghost Super Pokémon. Solar Orb, the evolved form of Orb and Fire Orb, uses psychic, fire, ghost, and powerful sun attacks."

"Sooooooolaaaaaaaarrrrrrrr!" screamed the Pokémon.

"So what do want us to do?" asked Jay.

"Challenge Chris," said the old man.

"With only Solar Orb?" asked Agua. "One against all of his Pokémon?"

"I'll lend you Ice Orb," said the old man, "Water Orb's evolved form. You two should head to Chris' gym."

* * * *

Jay and Agua walked up to Chris' gym. Strangely enough, Fire Orb wasn't at the door.

"Should we just ring the bell?" asked Jay, pointing to a little red button.

Agua pushed the button. All of a sudden, there was a loud screech. All of sudden, Jay and Agua heard the sounds of wings came from the gym.

Chapter Four: Ice Orb vs. Fire Orb

All of a sudden, the door burst open and a large number of big Pokémon shot out.

"Stung," said the Pokédex. "A flying bug Super Pokémon. This is the Super Pokémon Bugged in its final stage. Stung is the altered form of Butterfree and Beedrill. This Pokémon is able to use a number of poison, psychic, and wind attacks."

All of a sudden, one looked down at Jay and Agua. It's razor sharp claws shot down at the two.

"Go, Solar Orb!" Jay threw the Super Ball, and out appeared Solar Orb.

"SOOOOOOOLAAAAAARRRRRR!" it shouted.

"Solar Orb, sun gun," said Jay.

All of a sudden, Solar Orb began to shoot little parts of light at Stung.

"My Stung, return now," growled a strange, deep, evil voice. "Return, or face my Flamed!"

The flying bug Pokémon turned around, and headed towards their owners.

"Ah," said the voice. "Hello Pokémon trainers. I see you were able to smuggle Pokémon into my city. Well because of all your hard work, I'll let you challenge me."

"Let's go Agua," said Jay.

"I dunno," said Agua. "That voice seems to sound like someone I know. Only, evil and twisted."

Jay and Agua stepped into the main arena of the gym, and there stood a man.

"Ultra!" cried a caged Pokémon.

"Blob! Blob!" cried another caged Pokémon.

"Talooon!" screamed a caged Pokémon.

"Flame-Flame!" cried a caged Flame.

"Double-Double-Double," said a caged Double.

"Dive!" shouted a caged Diver.

Jay and Agua gasped. "Our Pokémon!"

"So," said Chris, the evil Pokémon trainer. "You challenge me, eh? I'll let the girl go first."
"Alright," said Agua. "Ice Orb, go!"

The Super Ball hurled threw the air, and out came Ice Orb.

"Iccce," hissed Ice Orb.

"Then I'll use my Fire Orb," said Chris. He threw his Super Ball and out came Fire Orb.

"Fire-Fire Orb!" shouted Fire Orb.

"Agua!" shouted Jay. "Fire Orb is stronger than Ice Orb!"

"But Ice Orb is stronger than Fire Orb," said Agua.

"Your friend is right," said Chris. "Ice Orb may be older than Fire Orb, but fire is stronger than ice!"

Agua gasped.

"Fire Orb, flamethrower," shouted Chris.

"Fire!" Fire Orb opened his mouth and out shot fire out of his mouth. The fire hit Ice Orb.

"Ice Orb, freeze bomb," said Agua. "Stop Fire Orb!"

"Icccccce!" Ice Orb began spinning around. Ice bombs starting shooting out and hitting Fire Orb. But the bombs melted as they hit Fire Orb.

"Alright," said Chris. "Fire Orb, psychic blast!"

"Fir-Re!" cried Fire Orb. All of a sudden, large flashes of light enter the arena. Poor Ice Orb was in a lot of pain.

Chapter Five: Escaping the Gym

"Ice Orb, fear!" ordered Agua.

Ice Orb began to shake. It was glaring at Fire Orb. Ice Orb was trying to confuse Fire Orb.

"Fire Orb, finish it off," said Chris. "Fire Beam!"

All of a sudden, Fire Orb began to grow, and then Fire Orb shot a large beam of fire at Ice Orb.

Ice Orb fell to the ground.

Agua held out her Super Ball. "Ice Orb, return!"

"Fire Orb, growth, block that girl from getting back her Pokémon," said Chris.

All of a sudden, Fire Orb grew larger than it already was. He it the beam of red light that would bring Ice Orb back to it's Super Ball.

Then, Ice Orb just seemed to disappear.

"Ice Orb!" cried Agua.

"We have to get out of here," said Jay.

"Prepare for trouble," said one voice.

"And you can make that triple trouble," a second voice said.

"Oh no," said Jay and Agua. "Not them again. It's Team Rocket"

"To protect the world from devastation," said the last voice, Kelly.

"To bind all bad guys within our nation!" said Mike.

"To announce the evils of truth and love," said Nick.

"To extend our reach to the stars above!" said Kelly.

"Mike!"

"Nick."

"And Kelly."

"Team Rocket blast off at the speed of light!" cried Mike.

"Surrender now, or prepare to fight!" continued Nick.

"That's right!" finished Kelly.

"Ah, the old motto without Fire Kat," said Mike.

"Who needed that dumb Pokémon anyway?" asked Nick.

"Hey!" shouted a voice. "What's the big idea!" Over in a corner was Fire Kat, in a cage. "Get me outta here!"

"Team Rocket, eh?" said Chris. All of a sudden, the sound of Stung wings came back. "Alright my Stung, attack those kids!"

"Run!" screamed Jay.

Jay, Agua, Kelly, Mike, and Nick all began to run out of the gym.

"Stung, use your twin needle attack," ordered Chris. "Then use your super sting attack and poison-wave attack!"

All of a sudden, all the Stung's claws shot down at them. They hit Agua and Kelly.

"Jay!" cried Agua. "Don't stop and get me."

"I wasn't going to!" shouted Jay.

All of a sudden, Jay tripped on Nick and the two went falling. And then, Mike tripped over the two.

"Stung, uses your poison-wave!" ordered Chris.

The Stung shot poison waves at them. They hit Mike and Nick, but Jay wasn't hit.

Jay got out from under the two and ran for the door.
