"Regular dialogue"
I fixed the small error in chapter 2. Also I need your opinion, do I go into detail on how Gary got his pokémon or not. Ok here we go!
Pokémon: Oak Styled
Vision 03: the first step to destiny
Gary had spent several days training his pokémon in Viridian Forest. It the week and a half, his weedle evolved into a beedrill, his pikachu, spearow, and eevee went up several levels. Janine helped by providing valuable experience. The two also got to know each other better and Gary even asked the ninja to teach him some of her martial arts. As the three reached the gates of Pewter city Janine had to ask a question that had bugged her for some time.
"Gary, out of all my pokémon only one has a nickname. That is to tell her apart from my father's other zubat. But you have nicknamed all of your pokémon. And after awhile you stopped calling them those names. Why?" She asked.
"Well, for one I don't know their real names since I can't understand them yet. Two it helps because they can tell who I am because I know the nickname and the circumstances that I gave them it under. This will help if we are ever separated or confused. I gave them a name they can know me by as well. Finally I think it brings us closer together," Gary answered her.
*That's right, * Pikachu said from Gary's shoulder as they entered the city. As they walked forward toward the pokémon center a sound caught the electric pokémon's ears. (Is that crying I here?) It jumped off of Gary's shoulder and followed the sound.
"Hey where are you going? I want to relax, I want a hot meal, and I want to take a shower!" Janine yelled as Pikachu took off with Gary right at its heels. As the two ran into an alleyway next to the center the sound of crying got loud enough so that Gary could here as well.
The Pokémon and trainer made several turns in the back alleys of Pewter City. The sound they followed got steadily louder. When the turned a corner the found the source of the cries.
A little girl sat on a box in the ally. She had on a white sundress and a white bonnet with a blue band around it. Her dark green-black hair reached her neck and she was wearing red boots. She was currently rubbing her violet eyes and sniffling.
"Hey what's wrong?" Gary asked after a moments pause.
*Yeah can we help? * Pikachu asked.
"I'm lost. I left home to get away from somebody who was mean to me and I can't find my way back," sobbed the little girl.
"Where do you live?" Gary asked concerned.
"Saffron City," the girl said quietly while picking up Pikachu.
"What! How did you get to Pewter?" Gary asked astonished.
"I feel asleep in a big box filled with pillows and ended up here," the girl said while petting Pikachu.
(In all probability she got loaded on a train or something. Still I better help get back, It would be the heroic thing to do,) he reasoned. "Come with me. I think I can help you get back.
"Thanks," cried the girl, "My name is Sammy."
When Gary returned to the pokémon center Sammy and Janine got along glowingly. Gary smirked at the two talking as his pokémon got reenergized. When the nurse returned Gary noticed something.
"Hey didn't I see you in Viridian City?" He asked the pink haired nurse. She looked exactly like the one in the Viridian City pokémon center. She had the same white dress and apron, the white hat with the Red Cross on it and her hair was in two large ponytail-like loops.
"I bet you mean I look like my half sister in Viridian City. I been told we look a lot a like," Nurse Joy said her blue eyes sparkling.
*"Right," * Both Pikachu and Gary said at the same time. After a meal and a short break to reenergize the three humans, the group went to the next stop the pokémon gym.
"This is it little pal, all of the training and planning for the past week was for this battle. Let's do it!" Gary exclaimed in front of the large double doors. Slowly the doors opened and reveled the stadium within.
Gary walked confidently to the center of the gym. He looked around the large room noticing some new bleachers on his left. There was a large white rectangle painted on the floor, and a single white line that branched into a pokéball symbol in the middle of the room halved it. Two smaller rectangles were painted on the floor on the short sides of the large rectangle.
Gary and Pikachu stood in the middle as the human boy called out, "I Gary Oak challenge the leader of this gym to a battle!"
"I accept young man. Your friends can watch from the sidelines," Called a voice from the rafters. "Mind the floor," it said as two large stone protrusions slid out from the walls quickly rushing to meet where Gary was standing. The boy leapt back into the square closest to the entrance as the new stone floor covered the main arena.
A tall brown skinned man dropped into the square opposite his own. He was wearing a gray shirt, beige cargo pants and brown hiking boots. "My name is Flint, and this will be a three on three battle. Let's begin!"
"Graveler, Attack!" Flint cried out releasing the four-armed bolder- like rock/ground type.
"Go for Eevee," Gary said releasing his smaller normal type.
"That one shouldn't be able to do anything to my pokémon," the gym leader said.
"Don't be so sure of yourself, Eve your know what to do," Gary said and winking at his pokémon. Gary had trained all of his pokémon to do certain thinks when he used their nicknames. It allowed both trainer and pokémon to focus on each other. The eevee split suddenly, so where there was one eevee there where now three. Those three split into five. The five pokémon ran circles around the slower graveler, throwing up blinding sand as they did.
"Sand Attack and Double team, an affective combo. But pointless! Graveler, Magnitude point 8!" Flint shouted.
*I'll try boss, * the rocky pokémon stated trying to peer through the blinding sand. It jumped into the air coming down on the ground hard. It continued to jump until the ground started to shake. Large cracks stretched from the point of impact tripping one of the phantom eevee up causing it to vanish.
"Attack with Quick Attack!" Gary said to counter the leader's ground assault. All of the remaining eevee attack in blur's of speed. The large stone pokémon half-blinded by sand and disoriented by the multiple opponents was quickly whittled down by this high-speed assault.
"Not bad," Flint said. "But how will you handle this!" He recalled his unconscious pokémon and called out another. "Trample them, Rhyhorn!"
"Use Double Team again Eevee!" Gary said with a smirk.
"Rhyhorn, Horn Attack," Flint ordered quietly. The stone rhino charged at one of the small brown pokémon but was an illusion. Its horn gored nothing but thin air.
*Missed me, now to confuse you even more. * the eevee said as they ran around the rhyhorn. It didn't respond with words just a huge Stomp, which made another of the illusions vanish.
. "Don't try to match its speed, close your eyes and Bide, and when you know where you're opponent is attack.
"Eevee, while its waiting, attack with Quick Attack!" Gary said still confident of his victory. His eevee complied and began the same attack as the last time. But after a few blows, the rock/ground type's eyes snapped open and it rushed at one of the eevee. Its attack hit dead on this time dispelling all of the others and sending Eevee to Gary's feet.
"Come on I now you can get back up!" Gary shouted to his down pokémon who shakily got back to its feet. "Tackle it, but aim for its eye," Gary ordered quietly. Eevee and Rhyhorn charged each other. The smaller pokémon leapt in the air so when they collided it hit the rock/ground types eye. This was enough to make both packman faint. Eevee fainted from the two massive hits and Rhyhorn was pushed over the edge from being struck in the eye.
"Return," both trainer and gym leader said at the same time. They looked into each other's eyes and released their next battlers.
"Spearow, your next," Gary said not worried.
"Attack Aerodactyl!" Flint shouted.
"Spearow fly high then attack with Fury Attack," Gary ordered. The tiny bird complied. But the large stone dinosaur flew after it. The bird tried to escape but its efforts were futile.
"Aerodactyl, finish this with Rock Slide," Flint shouted. His pokémon complied and proceeded to pummel the spearow with huge rocks fired from its mouth. Gary recalled his battered and falling pokémon.
(Darn, I didn't know he had something like this,) Gary thought. "Pikachu, your up next," He told the yellow mouse. It nodded and said, *I'll try my best. *
"Aerodactyl, use Super Sonic!" Flint ordered. The highflying pokémon dove down to the electric type.
"Pikachu dodge it like we practiced, then Thunderbolt!" Gary shouted.
"It looks like the practice Gary had will pay off," Janine said to Sammy. The younger girl nodded and watched the battle intensely. The rock/flying type released a concentrated funnel of sound, but Pikachu darted out of the path of the sound waves. While the aerodactyl was pulling back around Pikachu released a large thunderbolt that struck the retreating pokémon. It screamed as the shock raced through it, illuminating it. Gary smirked but then opened his mouth in shock as it shook the hit off. It didn't even lose altitude.
"Finish this with Hyper Beam!" Flint said. Aerodactyl's mouth filled with yellow energy as the hyper beam charged. Both trainer and pokémon panicked the few seconds until the beam was released. When the smoke and flames cleared Pikachu was on the ground unmoving.
"Nice try kid. I thought you had me. Come back and challenge me again when you and your friends get stronger," Flint said walking over to his exhausted pokémon. "And you did marvelously," he whispered to Aerodactyl.
Gary walked over and picked up his pikachu. He silently turned and walked to the door of the gym with his head down. Janine and Sammy both looked at each other and than ran out of the gym after Gary.
"The first loss his hardest to take," Flint said to his pokémon.
*That having been said, I think I am going to collapse now, * Aerodactyl said then it fainted. Flint blinked a few times then started to laugh at his narrow win. He recalled Aerodactyl and went to the back room to regenerate his pokémon.
Janine and Sammy rushed into the pokémon center looking for Gary. They asked the nurse if she had seen him. She said that he left three of his pokémon and had gone to out. The two girls decided to wait for him.
Gary walked along the edge of Viridian Forest. He was going over the battle in his head trying to get what he did wrong.
"My plan was perfect. Take advantage of the gym pokémon's poor speed. But my pokémon weren't strong enough. I will have to just train them harder," Gary concluded. (It can't be me, It just can't,) he thought.
"If you believe that then you are sorely mistaken. Your stratagem failed because you didn't think of your pokémon. You didn't fight with love or trust. In fact you should be worried about your pokémon's health not how to win your next battle," said a female voice from the trees.
"And who are you to give me, Gary Oak, advice?" Gary asked shouting. Someone dropped from the trees behind him, landing between him and the path back to the city.
"I'm glad you asked. Holly's my name," said the red-eyed girl. "I watched your battle and I wasn't impressed."
"And how did you see it? You weren't there. Plus what gives you the right to judge me? " Gary asked getting angry.
"An amazing invention called a window. Have you heard of them? They are transparent and or found on most public buildings," the red head said. "And I can judge you because I know how pokémon and humans should work together. And I will be willing to show you if you will accept a battle."
"Your on! I'll show you, Driller come on out!" Gary said indignantly.
"You gave your pokémon nicknames not to get close to them but for you own strategy. Let me show you something." she said. She let lose a piercing whistle, and a purple bug/flying type pokémon fluttered out of the forest. It had butterfly wings large compound red eyes two antennae and large blue feet. It floated down to hover in front of the beedrill and its trainer. "Let me show you the power of friendship, Butterfree try confusion," she said quietly.
"I'll show you power, Beedrill dodge that then use Twin Needle," ordered Gary.
*Right, boss, * his pokémon buzzed. It darted to the butterfly pokémon in a zigzag pattern trying to avoid any attacks. But the butterfly just floated there. Just when it was within striking range of its opponent it released a huge burst of psychic energy fainted the beedrill in an instant.
"Your beedrill was at level twenty? But my friend here is only at ten. That's a ten level difference. My friend doesn't need me to dictate every move, for he can fight mostly by himself. My job is to." she began to say but was interrupted by Gary who called back his pokémon.
"How dare you lecture me? You don't even know me? You don't know anything about me?" Gary asked in a rage, almost crying. He stared angrily into her eyes, but was startled at what he saw. They weren't pure red; they had flecks of green in them. Also there was something in them that was old, no ancient and deep.
"I no more about you than you realize. If you want to call yourself a trainer, learn to follow your heart, not your intellect. Your heart and your friend both pokémon and human will give you what you seek," she said turning to walk back into the forest her butterfree fluttering after her.
"If you know so much, what do I seek?" the young boy asked the retreating figure.
"I cannot tell you. You must find it for yourself," she said as she disappeared into the woods. "Just follow your heart." Gary feel to his knees and pounded the ground in frustration, tears falling out of his eyes.
It was late afternoon when Gary returned to the pokémon center. Janine had some words to say to the trainer but stopped when she saw his expression.
"Are you alright?" she asked looked at his downcast face. He didn't respond at first handing in his last pokémon to be healed.
"I'm fine, I just have a lot on my mind. Do you know where my pokémon are?" he responded.
"She nodded and answered, "Playing with Sammy in the back rooms. We are sharing one and you have one on your own. Why?" Gary didn't respond he received his pokémon from the nurse, who could heal it faster since he was the only one there. He then when to the back rooms, ignoring Janine. "Hey I'm talking to you, don't make me hurt you," the young ninja said.
Gary just waved her off with out turning around and said, "Don't worry about it. I heard you." He walked back to his room with a confuse girl looking after him. (He's different somehow,) she thought.
Gary entered his room to see an adorable sight. Eevee and Pikachu where both piled up on a giggling Sammy. Spearow was perched on the top of a bunk bed with a bemused expression on its face.
"Looks like someone is having fun," he said wistfully. Eevee, Pikachu and Sammy stood up and looked at the boy in the door.
"Where were you? These girls and guy missed you. They almost though you didn't care about them," Sammy said pouting. Gary thought for a moment.
He asked, "Sammy, can you tell me something. Is Pikachu a boy or girl?"
"A boy," she responded cautiously.
"And Eevee, Spearow and Beedrill," he inquired releasing the bee pokémon as he did.
"A girl, another girl and a boy," she replied "Why?"
"Eevee, Pikachu, Spearow and Beedrill. Eve, Pika, Storm Bringer, and Driller, I haven't been the most considerate person. I have been focusing so hard on just winning battles that I have forgotten why I started training. I forgot that I need you and I can't do it with out you. I'm sorry my poor strategies got you hurt and if you want to leave me, I won't blame you," He said. The four pokémon looked at each other then they all flew/ran over to Gary.
*I with you, after all I am your first, * Eve the eevee said.
*Hey, we didn't get away from the spearow for nothing I'm still with your! * Pika the pikachu said.
*I owe that stone bird a whipping, and I have to get stronger to do that, * Storm Bringer the spearow said.
*I probably wouldn't have made it to being a beedrill if it wasn't for you, so I owe you and I always repay my debts, * Driller the beedrill said. Gary couldn't understand them but got the message any way. He smiled the first time since that gym battle and thought (Maybe there is something to following my heart.) As his pokémon and him had a huge group hug.
The next vision:
Gary gains new pokémon allies as he trains his old ones in new ways.
Janine and Sammy help train himself and that mysterious being watches and comments on his progress.
And the vision fades to a new concept.

I'm sorry my poor strategies got you hurt and if you want to leave me, I won't blame you," He said. The four pokémon looked at each other then they all flew/ran over to Gary.
*I with you, after all I am your first, * Eve the eevee said.
*Hey, we didn't get away from the spearow for nothing I'm still with your! * Pika the pikachu said.
*I owe that stone bird a whipping, and I have to get stronger to do that, * Storm Bringer the spearow said.
*I probably wouldn't have made it to being a beedrill if it wasn't for you, so I owe you and I always repay my debts, * Driller the beedrill said. Gary couldn't understand them but got the message any way. He smiled the first time since that gym battle and thought (Maybe there is something to following my heart.) As his pokémon and him had a huge group hug.
The next vision:
Gary gains new pokémon allies as he trains his old ones in new ways.
Janine and Sammy help train himself and that mysterious being watches and comments on his progress.
And the vision fades to a new concept.
