GOLD AND THE SPECIAL POKEMON EVOLUTION.
Part 2-Oddish, Vulpix and Nidoran Male's life of evolution.
By Ninetalesuk.

*Route 35. North of Goldenrod City*

(John Gold was on his journey once again. He had spent two days in Goldenrod City where he was
glad to go there. His Eevee, Hoot-Hoot and Totodile evolved into Espeon, Noctowl and Croconaw.
He won the Goldenrod Champion Trainer title for beating Harley Butch, the ex-champion, captured
another Pokemon called Nidoran Male and winning the badge from Whitney, the Goldenrod GYM leader.
Yep. Everything was going his way. He wanted some rest as he arrived in the National Park.
He sat on the seat beside his Espeon, whom was happy to get out of his Poke-ball and relax).

JOHN:Ahh. This is the life, eh Espeon?
ESPEON:Esp. Espeon.
JOHN:I'm gonna find out where we should go to get my next badge.

(John brought his wrist out to reveal a Pokegear. This special device is not only a watch, but
its also a radio, map reader and a phone. He tuned it to the map and pointed to their next
location to get Espeon's attention).

JOHN:Our next stop is Ecruteak City!
ESPEON:Esp..
JOHN:Its not far, we can relax for a while before heading to Ecruteak City.
VOICE:You shouldn't relax, geek.

(John and Espeon turned around to see their rival, Phil Kimer. This kid started his journey off
with Chikorita. He later captured a Gastly and a Zubat. John and Phil don't get along since both
of them wants to enter and win in the Johto League).

JOHN:Hello, Phil. Nice to see you too(!)
PHIL:Cut the chat, geek! You shouldn't relax! Your Pokemon are weak!
JOHN:Weak!? My Totodile evolved into Croconaw, my Hoot-Hoot evolved into Noctowl and you can see
that MY Eevee evolved into Espeon!
PHIL:Ha! My Chikorita evolved into Bayleef, Zubat is now Crobat and my Gastly is now Haunter.
I also got a new Pokemon on my team.
JOHN:And whom is that?
PHIL:A Scyther.
JOHN:S-Scyther?! How did you get a Scyther?
PHIL:Right here, you fool! The National Park helds a Bug Catching Contest where you can catch
Bug-type Pokemon. First prize is a Sun Stone.
JOHN:Sun Stone?
PHIL:Yeah. But, I came second and won a Everstone that can stop Pokemon evolve! Huh, like I don't
wanna evolve my Pokemon.
JOHN:So, where your heading now? Ecruteak City?
PHIL:Yep! I suppose you'll be there as well. You should get stronger, geek. It'll be good for
ya! Hahaha! Later!

(John watched as Phil walked away. When his rival was out of sight, John got up and looked at
his Espeon).

JOHN:Come on! I wanna enter the Bug Catching Contest.

(John and Espeon went into a building where he found what he was looking for. A billboard).

JOHN:Lets see. 'Bug Catching Contest. Not only you'll get a prize, you'll also keep the Pokemon
you captured. The contest is held on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. First contest starts at
11:00am and the second one starts at 14:00pm. You have twenty minutes to find and capture the
Pokemon you wanted. Out of 6 Pokemon in your team, you can only use one to weaken the Bug
Pokemon and capture it'.

(John looked at the Pokegear and checked the time and date).

JOHN:Today is Thursday and the time is 13:56pm. I better enter right away!

(Soon, John signed up in the contest and selected Espeon as his partner to catch a Bug Pokemon.
Later, he captured a Scyther and won first prize, the Sun Stone. He learned that the Sun Stone
can evolve a Pokemon. But.... which Pokemon?)

*On the path to Olivine City. TIMELINE:3 days later...*

(John was heading to Olivine City, the Johto port. He arrived at Ecruteak City where he won his
4th badge from a Ghost-type GYM leader called Morty. John was on a roll to become a Pokemon
master. During his journey to Olivine City, a rough old trainer that might be a hiker challanged
John on a 3-on-3 Pokemon battle. John sended his Oddish out while the hiker trainer sended a
Onix out. John quickly used Oddish to use her Absorb attack, sucking the energy from Onix! The
Rock Snake Pokemon was defeated! The hiker used Graveler and Rhyhorn but, Oddish won. The
experience of the battle gave Oddish enough power to evolve into Gloom! John picked up his newly
evolved Gloom and danced with her).

JOHN:Congradulations, Gloom!
GLOOM:Gloom. Gloom.

(Later, before John took a step in Olivine City, a female camper trainer challange him to another
3-on-3 battle. Since the hiker used Pokemon of Rock and Ground, this trainer uses Grass and Bug
Pokemon. So John uses his Nidoran. With a few Poison Stings and a couple of Tackles upon Paras,
Bulbasaur and Butterfree, Nidoran Male evolved into Nidorino).

JOHN:Yeah! Good job, Nidorino!

*Olivine City*

(John arrived at Olivine City. He held two Poke-balls and smiled).

JOHN:Nidorino and Gloom! Two new Pokemon! Haha!

(John walked by the GYM and read the sign).

JOHN:Right.... 'Olivine City GYM. Jasmine, the Hard-Steel Mistress'

(John took out his Pokedex and looked up Steel-type Pokemon).

JOHN:Okay, Steel types are weak against Fire types. Hmm, Vulpix can handle those Steel Pokemon.
VOICE:I wouldn't bet on it!

(John turned around to see......)

JOHN:Phil?!
PHIL:Hi, geek!
JOHN:What your doing here?
PHIL:Oh... getting stronger! I heard you won the Bug Catching Contest.
JOHN:Yeah. Catching a Scyther, getting a Sun Stone..... hey! How did ya know I won?
PHIL:News traveled fast, geek!
JOHN:Would you stop calling me a 'geek'!
PHIL:Make me! If you want me to stop calling you a geek, you'll have to face me in a 1-on-1
Pokemon battle! Deal?
JOHN:Deal!

(Phil brought a Poke-ball out of his belt and held it towards John).

PHIL:Time to use my newest Pokemon!

(Phil threw the Poke-ball, and when it opened up...)

POKEMON:Scizor!

(John, still holding his Poke-dex, held the Poke-ball and pointed the Poke-dex to Scizor).

No.212. NAME:Scizor.
TYPE 1:Bug.
TYPE 2:Steel.
EVOLVED FORM:Scyther.
Scissors Pokemon.
Height:5' 11".
Weight:260 lbs.
INFORMATION:It swings its eye-patterned pincers up to scare its foes. This makes it look like it
has three heads.

JOHN:Evolved form of Scyther?! Y-You didn't evolve Scyther right away, did you?
PHIL:I did.
JOHN:You only captured him 3 days ago!
PHIL:Well, shut yer mouth, geek! You can't tell me how I can raise my Pokemon!
JOHN:Hmph! I took good care of MY Pokemon! Let me show you how!

(John threw his Poke-ball, opening up for a brown fox with 6-tails coming out).

VULPIX:Vull....
JOHN:All right! Lets face finish this!

(Vulpix and Scizor fought against each other! Vulpix won by using a strong Flamethrower. Phil
called Scizor useless and returned him back into the Poke-ball before starting walking away).

PHIL:You may have won, John! But... you'll never get that badge!
JOHN:Why not?
PHIL:Jasmine is at the Lighthouse because some rubbish Pokemon is SICK! Hah! Let the Pokemon die!
I care about STRONG Pokemon! See ya! I'm gonna get my team stronger so they can beat yours!

(Phil walked away, leaving John and Vulpix behind. John picked up Vulpix and turned towards the
GYM, with a concerned look on his face).

JOHN:A Pokemon in trouble! We gotta help Jasmine! We better head over to the Pokemon Center and
get you guys healed.

(At the Pokemon Center... Gold was at a bench, holding a couple of stones and facing his Nidorino
and Gloom).

JOHN:Are you guys sure? You might want to train some more...

(Gloom and Nidorino shook their heads. John sighed and looked at the Sun Stone that he won at
the Bug Catching Contest and the Moon Stone where he found it during his travel to Olivine City.
If he uses the Sun Stone on Gloom, Gloom will evolve into Bellossom. As for Nidorino and the
Moon Stone, Nidorino will evolve into Nidoking! Since Gloom and Nidorino wanted to evolve,
John did what they wanted him to do... Gloom became Bellossom and Nidorino became Nidoking.
They looked at their trainer with happy looks on their faces).

JOHN:Well, now your evolved, you better not complain to me. It was your decition, got it?

(Bellossom and Nidoking both nodded... soon, John collected Espeon, Vulpix, Croconaw and Noctowl
and got Bellossom and Nidoking back into their Poke-balls before exiting the Pokemon Center).

*Sea to Cainwood City*

(John stood on the deck of the Olivine Ferry, taking him and a few others to the Cainwood City.
John was able to meet up with Jasmine, who was looking after a sick Pokemon called Amphy. Amphy
is a Ampharos. To get Amphy to full health, John will have to travel to Cainwood City where he'll
pick up a medicene in order to save the Pokemon. John slowly took the Poke-ball containing his
Vulpix. When will Vulpix ever evolve? His question will soon be answer as he arrived at the town
of Cainwood).

*Cainwood City*

(One thing that surprised John that Cainwood had a GYM that uses Fighting types. John challanged
them to a battle and won his 5th badge using Noctowl and Espeon. Then, he picked up the special
medicene to heal Amphy up from a special Medical Hut then, went to the Pokemon Center to heal
his Pokemon before catching the ferry to Olivine City were he met a weird man called the
Pokemanic that goes nuts about Pokemon).

POKEMANIC:Hi there, kid! Looks like your on a winning roll!
JOHN:Sorry? Who are you?
POKEMANIC:I'm the Pokemanic of Cainwood City! What Pokemon do you have?
JOHN:Espeon, Noctowl, Nidoking, Bellossom, Croconaw and Vulpix.
POKEMANIC:Hmm, Vulpix. You know, kid. You can evolve Vulpix with a Firestone!
JOHN:Huh. Where can I find one?
POKEMANIC:Just so happens that I have 1 with me! Whats your name?
JOHN:John.
POKEMANIC:Well the, John! All you have to do is answer these simple questions.
Question no. 1-What are Eevee's evolved forms?
JOHN:Easy. Jolteon, Vaporeon, Flareon, Espeon and Umbreon.
POKEMANIC:Correct! Question no. 2-How many elements of Pokemon are there?
JOHN:There are 17 elements. Dark, Steel, Fire, Grass, Water, Electric, Ghost, Poison, Psychic,
Ice, Flying, Ground, Rock, Bug, Dragon, Fighting and Normal.
POKEMANIC:Cool! You were able to name the elements as well. Right, last question!
Who is the most famous Pokemon EVER?
JOHN:Pikachu, of course!
POKEMANIC:Correct! Here you are John!

(The Pokemanic threw John the Firestone).

POKEMANIC:Use this to evolve Vulpix into Ninetales! Enjoy!

(The Pokemanic left the building. Vulpix came out of the Poke-ball and cheered. He knew he was
going to evolve!)

JOHN:All right, Vulpix! Here we go!

(John placed the Firestone on Vulpix and the small fox evolved into a beautiful Ninetales).

JOHN:Yeah! Hello, Ninetales!
NINETALES:Nine!
JOHN:Now! Back to Olivine City!
