Ryan's Pokémon Adventure
Ch. 7 Encounter With Flint
By BlastSage

The owner of the museum walked up to Ryan and Karen in the rubble.

"I want to thank you for trying to save our Aerodactyl fossil." He said, shaking Ryan's hand. "You were really brave."

Ryan wiped his tears away and stood up to the curator. "Actually" he said, as he produced a Pokéball in his pocket. He threw the pokéball to the ground, and seconds later the Aerodactyl fossil was lying at Ryan's foot.

"The fossil!" Onlookers gasped. The curator just stared.

"Well I neverI have to repay youcould you wait right here please?" The man left, then returned five minutes later.

"I have called Cinnabar Research Center on Cinnabar Island, and they are so happy about you saving the fossil, that we have decided to reward you the fossil. Whenever you feel like getting Aerodactyl revived, just visit the research center and they will revive it for you."

People applauded for Ryan, who was standing there, speechless and blushing. He had an Aerodactyl for his team! As Ryan and Karen left the chattering crowd toward the Pokémon Center, Ryan thought, " This must be the happiest day of my life"

----------------------------------------

" This has to be the worst day of my life" muttered Harry, who had just been scolded by Giovanni, for failing him the fossil he wanted. But that wasn't what really bothered him. He went up to his dormitory at Rocket Headquarters. He reached his bed, and grabbed a picture off of his desk. It was a picture of himself, his mother, his father, and his younger brother, Ryan. " I can't believe that I saw him," he thought. " If only I could have -"

"Harry!" yelled Kayla, disrupting his thoughts, " The boss wants all Rocket members to meet at the laboratory in five minutes. Let's go!"

Harry sighed, then put up the picture. " I'm coming, just wait." He proceeded down the stairs, pausing a moment to look back at the picture, then met Kayla down the stairs.

----------------------------------------

"Well, I guess this is the place." Ryan was standing outside the Pewter City Gym. He pressed his hand against the rock hard door, and it swung open easily. Karen took a seat to the side, and Ryan walked toward the battle area. He stopped at a rocky field.

A light flicked on a few feet in front of Ryan. A tall figure was silhouetted in the beam.

"Welcome to the Pewter City Rock Gym. I am Flint, the gym leader you will be battling. And you are-"

"Ryan. Ryan Sasako."

"OK, Ryan. Ready to lose to to my Rock types?"

"The question is, are you Ready to lose to my types?"

Flint flinched at the remark, and then he released his first Pokémon. "Onix, go!"

"Abra, I choose you!" Abra appeared on the floor, while Onix appeared to nearly break the ceiling. The sleeping-like Pokémon looked insignificant to the towering rock snake.

Ryan's Pokéwatch went off.

"Onix: A Rock Pokémon: Burrows at high speed in search of food. The tunnels it leaves are used as homes by Digletts.

"Onix, Bide attack, now!" Flint commanded. The Onix started to wrap around Abra's thin armored body.

"Abra, Teleport!" Ryan yelled to prevent his pokémon from being crushed. Abra disappeared in a flash, and reappeared behind Onix.

"Now use your Hypnosis attack!" Abra's eyes started to glow a brilliant blue, and hypnotic waves emitted from him and jumped over to the snake. Onix started to waver.

"Onix! Focus Energy!" Onix stopped wavering, but the sleeping effect was starting to take over.

"Abra, make your hypnosis effect stronger." The waves got a brighter blue. The waves started to take effect.

"Bide, Onix!" Onix started to thrash about, getting tired by the minute. Unfortunately, his tail slammed into Abra, who was knocked to the wall and fainted. The hypnosis effect was done, and Onix fell down and asleep. This battle was a draw.

Flint and Ryan recalled their Pokémon. "Very good," said Flint, "But let's see how you fare against my Kabuto!" He threw the Pokéball, and out scuttled what looked like a crab with a rock on its back.

Kabuto: A Rock/Water Pokémon: A long extinct fossil Pokémon. It can only be resurrected on Cinnabar Island, along with Omanyte and Aerodactyl.

Ryan thought for a second, thinking who he should choose. He picked up a pokéball and threw it.

"Raticate!" it screamed.

Ryan kneeled down next to Raticate. "Are you sure you're up to this fight?"

Raticate nodded yes.

"OK, then. Use your Quick Attack!" Raticate bit Kabuto hard, and almost immediately, Kabuto's strength was nearly gone.

"Flint cursed under his breath, then said "Kabuto, Scratch." Kabuto scuttle over to Raticate and raised its claw, but Raticate was much faster, and tackled the rock. Kabuto flipped onto its back, and didn't get up.

"Arggggg! You win, Ryan." He tossed Ryan the Boulderbadge and a TM.

"All right! I won my first gym match! Yeah!" Ryan recalled Raticate, stored the TM in his backpack, and pressed a button on his watch. A small laser shot from the infrared port on the front and hit the badge. Then a small compartment opened in the watch, and Ryan put the badge in there, where the compartment sealed closed.

Ryan walked outside into the sunshine. A few seconds later Karen burst from the gym and hugged Ryan.

"You won your first match! And Flint is tough!" She hugged him again.

"Uh, yeah." Ryan said nervously, blushing.

Karen realized what she was doing and backed away, her face turning beet red.
