Celestic Town
Just outside Celestic Town, Edd was battling a trainer who was using a horselike Pokemon with a mane and tail of fire. Before the battle began, Edd pulled out the pokedex to see what the Pokemon was.
"Ponyta, the Fire Horse Pokemon. About an hour after birth, Ponyta's fiery mane and tail grow out, giving the Pokemon an impressive appearance." said the pokedex.
"Okay, Ponyta. Use Stomp." said Ponyta's trainer. Ponyta runs towards Edd's Prinplup, rears up on its hind legs and brings down its front feet down onto Prinplup's head.
"Quick, Prinplup. Use Brine." said Edd. Prinplup opens his beak and releases a large spray of water at Ponyta, hitting it, and doing super-effective damage thanks to water-type attacks being strong against fire-types like Ponyta. Ponyta was sent flying to the ground and was knocked out.
"Ponyta. No." said Ponyta's trainer.
"Good work, sockhead." said Eddy. Ponyta's trainer returns Ponyta to its pokeball, gives Edd some Pokedollars, then walks away.
"Congratulations on another victory, Prinplup." said Edd. Prinplup looks towards Edd and smiles. All of a sudden he freezes up and starts to glow.
"Prinplup's evolving!" says Ed. They watched as Prinplup started to change. When the glowing stopped, they saw that Prinplup was bigger, mostly black with a blue finlike collar around his throat which also goes down his belly. Over his face was a gold, trident-shaped crest which covered the top half of his beak. He had a white, lacy marking on his chest, his arms looked a lot sharper and blue-trimmed with three golden claws on each one, he had two gold bumps on his back and another blue fin which makes its tail. Edd pulls out his pokedex and points it at his newly-evolved Pokemon.
"Empoleon, the Emperor Pokemon, and the fully-evolved form of Prinplup. The three horns that extends from its beak attest to its power. The leader has the biggest horns." said the pokedex.
"Amazing. The pokedex says that Empoleon is part-steel as well. He also just learned Aqua Jet too." said Edd.
"Cool." said Ed.
"You know what this means, gentlemen?" asked Edd.
"What?" asked Eddy.
"All of our starter Pokemon are now fully-evolved." said Edd.
"I guess that's kinda cool." said Eddy as he takes out Infernape's pokeball and looks at it while Ed is looking at Torterra's.
"What now, guys?" asked Ed.
"I suppose we should continue on our way to Celestic Town to deliver the Old Charm to Cynthia's grandmother." said Edd.
"I'll deliver it." said Eddy.
"Very well. I suppose it doesn't matter who delivers it. Let's continue on our way, gentlemen." said Edd. The Eds keep on going, taking on any trainers that challenge them until they finally reached Celestic Town. It was a rather small town with some sort of shrine at the center of it, a few buildings, and a Pokemon Center. "I guess as long as we're here, we should have our Pokemon healed and grab some lunch."
"Good idea, Double-D. I'm starving." said Eddy. They go to the Pokemon Center and give the nurse their Pokemon. After that, they grab some lunch for themselves.
"How about after lunch we find Cynthia's grandmother and deliver that charm to her." suggested Edd.
"Sure. It shouldn't be hard to find her in a town this small." said Eddy. After they ate, they got their Pokemon back from the nurse and exit the Pokemon Center. They walked several steps until they meet an elderly woman. She turns to the sound of the Eds' approaching.
"There's an odd spaceman in front of the ruins." said the woman. "There isn't anything there, but that only seemed to make him angry."
"Spaceman? Could that be a member of Team Galactic?" Edd asked his friends.
"Probably." replied Eddy.
"He's saying he will blow the town up with a bomb." said the woman.
"What!?" exclaimed Edd.
"For real?" said Eddy.
"The nerve of it all!" exclaimed the woman. "If only I were younger, I'd punish that spaceman with my Pokemon."
"The nerve indeed." said Edd. He turns toward Ed and Eddy. "We have to stop that man."
"Yeah. Also, he could have some money." said Eddy. They ran north past a shrine and run to a cave entrance where a man in a Team Galactic uniform is standing. He sees the Eds approaching.
"This town is insignificant!" said the man.
"Says you." replied Ed.
"There's nothing of value here! It doesn't need to exist, so I'll blow it up with a Galactc Bomb!" said the man.
"Oh no you're not!" exclaimed Edd.
"If you try to mess with me, I'll shut you down with a Pokemon battle." said the man. "So what's it going to be? Are you going to mess with me?"
"If that's what it will take to save this town, as well as these ancient ruins, you better believe I will." said Edd.
"You dare to oppose Team Galactic?" asked the man. "That means you're taking on the world. No, the universe, even!"
"Whatever it takes to save this town." said Edd as he pulls out a pokeball. The Team Galactic member also pulls out a pokeball.
"Then we'll have a battle." said the man. "Beauifly, come out." He throws a pokeball and releases a Beautifly.
"I wasn't able to use our pokedex on that at Veilstone City due to you heathens stealing it." said Edd. He takes out the pokedex and points it at the Beautifly.
"Beautifly, the Butterfly Pokemon and one of the final forms of Wurmple. When flower fields bloom, it flits around, collecting pollen. Despite its appearance, it is savage." said the pokedex. Edd looks at the pokeball in his hand.
"Time for your first battle since evolving." said Edd. "Empoleon, I choose you." He throws the pokeball and releases his Empoleon. "Now, Empoleon, use Aqua Jet." Empoleon becomes surrounded by water and he launches himself at incredible speed and crashes into Beautifly. It falls to the ground with swirly eyes.
"Beautifly, no!" exclaimed the man.
"Yay, Double-D." cheered Ed.
"Too easy." said Eddy. The Team Galactic man returns Beautifly to its pokeball.
"You got lucky, kid. Let's see you handle this." said the Team Galactic man, pulling out another pokeball. "Croagunk, come out." He throws a pokeball and releases a Croagunk. "Now use Poison Jab." Croagunk's right hand glows purple and he leaps at Empoleon and thrusts its hand into his chest, but it didn't seem to have any effect, to the Team Galactic member's shock. "What!? Why didn't it work!?"
"Empoleon is part steel type. Poison type attacks are useless." replied Edd. "Now, Empoleon, Brine." Empoleon unleashes a strong blast of water from his mouth and it hits Croagunk hard. It falls to the ground with swirly eyes.
"Double-D wins!" cheered Ed.
"Way to go,sockhead." said Eddy. The Team Galactic man returned Croagunk to its pokeball.
"Too much...to handle." said the Team Galactic man. "Whatever! I'm out of this one horse town! There's nothing here anyway!" He tosses pokedollars at Edd and runs away. As Edd is picking them up, the elderly woman approached them.
"Well aren't you quite the trainer. That was very impressive." said the woman.
"Thank you." said Edd.
"As the elder of Celestic Town, I give you my thanks." said the woman. He looks over at Ed and Eddy and notices the Old Charm in Eddy's pocket. "Oh? That Old Charm. May I see it?"
"Sorry, lady. But Cynthia wanted us to give this to her grandmother." said Eddy.
"Cynthia? The Sinnoh League champion?" replied the woman.
"Yes." said Edd.
"Then you're in luck. I'm Cynthia's grandmother." said the woman now revealed to be Cynthia's grandmother.
"Oh, In that case, here you go." said Eddy as he hands the Old Charm to Cynthia's grandmother.
"Thank you. This Old Charm were made here a long time ago to honor a mythical deity who was said to have created the Sinnoh region." said Cynthia's grandmother. "As long as you're all here, why don't you all look inside the ruins? You already went to the trouble of coming here so you might as well check them out." said Cynthia's grandmother.
"Very well. It could be interesting." said Edd. They all go into the ruins and explore. There wasn't much to see except a picture of three beings surrounding a glowing sphere in a triangle formation. "I wonder what this is suppose to represent?"
"This painting reminds me of an old story that was passed down throughout the generations. There was once a being so powerful it was considered to be a deity at the time. Opposing this being were three Pokemon. The three kept balance with the one , as if they formed a triangle. It's an ancient legend of Sinnoh that is still told to this day in Celestic Town." said Cynthia's grandmother. She turns towards the Eds and hands them some TMs. "Oh, yes. I found something useful. You should take these. They belonged to my granddaughter, but she's not using them. They contain the move Surf. It's a powerful water-type move that effects all Pokemon except the Pokemon that used it. The move can also be used with the Poketch's HM App to travel across water, but you need the gym badge of the Hearthome City gym in order to use it. I'm afraid you're on your own with that one."
"That's okay. We plan on challenging the Hearthome City gym soon anyway." said Edd. Cynthia's grandmother nods and walks out of the ruins.
"I believe we're done here. Let's be off, gentlemen." said Edd as he and the others leave the ruins. When they do, they see the man they met at Mt. Coronet standing just outside the entrance.
"There appears to have been an insignificant struggle here. Everyone should step back and view things from a bigger perspective. Yes, a bigger perspective...one that is on a universal scale." said the man.
"Just who are you?" asked Eddy.
"My name is Cyrus. I seek to create a new world. A world without strife." said the man now identified as Cyrus.
"That sounds like a noble goal." said Edd.
"We've met before, haven't we?" asked Cyrus.
"Yes. At Mt. Coronet." said Edd.
"That's right. If you find any power derived from the legends of Sinnoh, inform me. For that power is what I need to create my new world." said Cyrus. With that, he leaves, leaving the Eds confused.
"What a weirdo." said Eddy.
"I'll admit he is rather unusual." said Edd.
"I think we shouldn't tell that guy anything if we do find something." said Eddy.
"A fine idea, Eddy." said Edd as he and the others watch Cyrus walk off.
