"So, we should probably follow Astroleon's instructions, huh?" said Shockwave.
"I don't ever want to go back there, that's for sure!" stated Calypso. The others nodded in fierce agreement.
There was only me, Shockwave, Calypso, Lunar, and Shadow here. The rest had gone off in search of some food in the forest.
"Neither do I," said Shadow, visibly shuddering. Suddenly, something rustled in the bushes.
"Aaahhh, what's that?!" cried Calypso.
A pokémon trainer in a dark blue vest and jeans came charging through the underbrush.
"Wow, a silver Growlithe and Jolteon, a kinda yellow Vaporeon, and a dark Pikachu!" cried the kid happily. "I'm sure that if I manage to catch one, I can beat that jerk, Alex! Flappy, go!"
The kid hurled a pokéball in our direction. In a flash of light, a huge Fearow came flying out. Its long, sharp beak was not something we'd want to be skewered with.
"Flappy, drill peck that Vaporeon, I want it the most!" ordered the kid.
"Aaahhh, he's gonna attack me!" wailed Calypso in pokéspeech, shutting her coal black eyes and preparing for the hit. Just then, I saw a strange crackling behind Calypso's ears. Before I could think about that one, the Fearow charged at Calypso, wickedly long beak aimed right for her. Suddenly, long, yellow waves started emanating from her body. The Fearow was paralyzed right in mid-flight, and landed hard on the ground.
"I didn't know you could use electricity!" I said in pokéspeech.
"I'm as surprised as you are, kid!" Calypso shouted back.
"Flappy, return! Chu, go!" said the kid, hurling another pokéball at us.
A Pikachu with many tufts of hair on its head came out, and started charging up for an attack. Shadow stepped up, and got ready for battle, and he started charging up himself, but not in electric energy. He was actually charging up shadow energy. I don't know about how I knew that one either, but I could just tell from the black waves being sucked into his body from nowhere.
"Chu, Thunder attack!" yelled the kid, pointing at us.
With it fully charged, the Pikachu let out a huge bolt of electricity into the clouds above with a fierce CHU!! The clouds shot the bolt back down to the ground, right for us. Everyone was hit pretty hard and we all collapsed to the soft grass. Shadow was barely holding up from the attack, but he managed to fire off a big ball of shadow energy at the Pikachu. The Pikachu was hit right in the chest, and was hurled into a tree so hard that the tree splintered. It didn't move.
"You hurt Chu!" yelled the kid angrily. "I'm gonna get you, whether you like it or not! Kicks, go!"
A Hitmonlee came kicking out of its pokéball, pulling a double roundhouse kick into the air in readiness. (Think about Stadium)
"Kicks, mega kick!" the kid shouted.
The Hitmonlee started running, and kicked me and Shockwave square in the faces. Dang did that hurt!! A tear slipped out of my eye from the pain, which seemed to split my head. I could only imagine how Shockwave felt; same as me. It then started furiously kicking Calypso and Shadow around like they were soccer balls! I stood up, slowly though, and so did Shockwave.
"Ouch, that hurts," said Shockwave in pokéspeech.
"You're telling me," I moaned, shaking my head lightly, which only intensified the pain.
"All right Kicks, good job, now pokéball, go!" he yelled, hurling a pokéball at Calypso.
He was going to catch her! Summoning all of my diminishing energy, I shot a purplpsychic bolt at the red-and-white ball. My psychic orb hit the pokéball away into a bush.
Now the kid was furious. "I want that Vaporeon!" he yelled. "Kicks, take out the others first! Then I can catch my Vaporeon in peace!"
Hitmonlee came kicking back towards Shockwave and I. I was too drained of energy to charge up a psychic blast.
"Shockwave, you have to charge up and beat that thing," I said wearily.
"All right, enough is enough," he said. His eyes glowed a weird shade of blue. The Hitmonlee was getting closer and closer also. He shot a huge ball of psychic energy laced with electricity towards the advancing Hitmonlee. It hit it dead center, and hurled it back to its master, where it lay, still.
"Kicks, return, Oddoshi, go!" yelled the kid.
"He doesn't want to give up, does he?" said Calypso worriedly. I shook my head no.
"And where he heck does he come up with these corny names for his pokés?" Lunar commented weakly.
"We can't withstand another attack!" cried Shadow.
"I know, but what can we do? All of us are too weak," I said.
An Oddish appeared, and stood there, waiting for its orders.
"Oddoshi, sleep powder!" the kid ordered.
The Oddish spread a big blue cloud of dust at us. I barely managed to avoid it, but the others fell asleep.
"Sleep is nice…" Kirin said as she drifted to sleep.
"One more, then I can get those rare pokémon!" laughed the kid. "Oddoshi, stun spore!"
I still had some energy, so I put a psychic barrier around me and the others. The Oddish looked stunned and confused as its yellow pollen seemed to hand suspended in the air. From inside my bubble, I could see the kid trying to figure out what to do.
"Attack!" yelled a voice in pokéspeech. I saw Arbiter, Larissa, Firestrike, and Firebust send out multiple fireballs at the Oddish. Its three leaves caught on fire, and ran back to its owner, shrieking like mad.
"The calvary has arrived!" yelled Arbiter.
"Oddoshi, return!" yelled the kid. "I'm outta here!" he cried, recalling his Oddish, and running into the thick underbrush. I dropped my protective barrier, then collapsed from dead exhaustion. The others woke up a few moments after.
"We saw the action, and decided to join in," said Firestrike.
"We're totally exausted," I said. "That kid was bent on catching one of us." Calypso, Shadow, and Shockwave nodded their heads in agreement.
"At least none of us were captured," said Firestrike.
"I have healing powers," said Larissa, gliding her way over to Shadow, Calypso, and Shockwave. A strange white glow came from Larissa's body, and she touched each of them. The glow was kind of transferred over. They all jumped up, totally revitalized. Larissa came over to me next, when something happened.
There was a rustling in the bushes again. This time, three guys with at least five pokéballs each appeared, being led by the kid we had to battle a few minutes before.
"See, bro, I told you there were some weird and unusual pokémon here!" said the kid.
"You're right, I see a Lugia, a Moltres, a Jolteon, oh boy, would we whip our opponents with those pokémon or what!" said the guy to the left of the kid.
"Everyone, get ready for an attack!" Firestrike yelled.
"Pokéballs, go!" yelled the little kid's older brother. Out came a Machoke, a Kadabra, a Marowak, a Venonat, and a Pidgeot.
"Machoke, karate chop, Kadabra, psybeam, Marowak, bone club, Venonat, supersonic, and Pidgeot, quick attack!" ordered the brother.
Machoke started trying to karate chop Larissa and Fireburst, but they just flew up out of its reach. They both nodded their heads, and Larissa let out a psychic blast, with some of Fireburst's water energy in it. It hit the Machoke right in the chest. It tumbled back to its owner, and he recalled it.
Kadabra shot out a multi-colored beam of energy at Arbiter and Firestrike. It hit Firestrike, hurling him back into a tree, where he was knocked out. Firestrike and Chico both let out two fireballs at Kadabra. Both fireballs hit, causing a nasty burn on Kadabra's right arm. Kadabra then started glowing, and the burn disappeared. In agitation, the Charmander with a black stripe shot out a blast of shadow energy, and the Chicorita with the red leaf shot out a stream of fire. The Kadabra couldn't withstand the combination of the energy, and collapsed in a heap on the grassy ground of the clearing.
Marowak was trying to hit Calypso and Kirin with its bone club. It would first swing at Calypso, then Kirin. They couldn't get a hit in, because when they were about to use their attacks, they had to dodge Marowak's bone onslaught. Everytime it got close, Kirin would shoot out a bolt of psychic energy, stunning Marowak for a few seconds.
"I'm getting fed up with this!" yelled Kirin. She got up on her hind legs, and kicked Marowak right in the skull with her front legs. It left a nice little indentation in Marowak's head. Calypso shot out a stream of water at it, weakening it. Kirin k.o.'d it with another kick from her hooves which sent the thing flying.
The Venonat was going up against Lunar and Shadow. It started emitting a high pitched sound, like fingernails to a blackboard. The sound made the both of them confused, and they started attacking each other. Lunar bit Shadow's ear, while Shadow was trying to give Lunar some electroshock therapy with his tail. Venonat took advantage of Lunar and Shadow's confusion by shooting five dark orbs of psychic energy at them. All five found their mark, and both pokémon stopped fighting as they were blasted back. Now that the confusion was gone, both of them turned to Venonat, furious, and attacked with multiple blasts of shadow energy. The blasts hit Venonat, and with a shriek, it fainted.
Pidgeot attacked me and Shockwave furiously. I was very weak still, and was barely able to avoid the Pidgeot's aerial attacks. Shockwave continuously tried to attack Pidgeot with his thundershock, but the Pidgeot was just too fast. It divebombed, and hit Shockwave square in the back, severely hurting him. A gash opened up, and the blood dripped onto the clean grass. Shockwave now used his agility, which sent blood flying in droplets, and started running around. Pidgeot couldn't hit him, and tried in vain to keep track of his whereabouts. After two tries, it came after me after noting that I was weak. I did the only thing I could do; use my Dragon Rage on it right when it was in front of me. The blue-green flames landed right in its face, scorching the feathers. It let out a screech of pain as it took off into the air again, but the wing feathers were damaged, so unable to support itself into the air, it slammed into the ground. I slowly stood up, and got into my battle stance as best I could. The darn thing wouldn't die! It stood up on its talons and began to beat the air in front of it quickly, which started up its Gust attack. Whatever energy I had left, I harnessed, and fired a powerful psy-shadow attack on it. I don't know if it worked or not, because I then blacked out.
