Dustin began to explain everything about the beans to Pat.
"It's like this, I was solving a legend..."
Uninterested, Mary sat, absently petting Eevee. It wasn't that she didn't believe Dustin (how couldn't she
after she saw him change?), but after hearing it once, she was bored.
Johto, Goldenrod City:
"Before we go, I have to go get my other Pokemon from home." Mary said.
"How come you didn't have them with you?" Dustin asked.
"I didn't need them with me. I only needed Arcanine."
"What about Eevee?"
"Eevee follows me everywhere. She's just a baby, so I never leave her alone." Mary replied.
Mary's house:
"Looks like my parents aren't home." Mary announced after a quick look around. She found a note. "And
my brother is out catching bug Pokemon. Wait here."
Mary left Dustin and Pat in the living room, and ran up the stairs. A small
Meowth with a bright pink bow around its neck wandered in, and rubbed up against Pat's leg, purring
loudly. When Dustin stooped to pet it, it took a few swipes at him and ran off hissing.
"I guess it doesn't like you." Pat pointed out.
Dustin scowled, holding his hand.
"Why not? If I were it, I would like me."
Mary returning with her pokeballs cut off Pat's reply.
"Okay, I got them." she announced, then looked at Dustin. "What happened to your hand?"
Dustin explained, and Mary laughed.
"What?" Dustin asked irritably.
"Why didn't you TELL me that Meowth didn't like strangers OR dragon Pokemon?" Dustin yelled.
"You never asked." Remarked Mary as she grabbed her keys off the table.
"I told you it didn't like you." Pat added as Mary locked the front door.
"Okay, let's go."
"So where are we off to?" Dustin asked
"Ecruteak" was Pat's answer. Mary looked at him with a question in her eyes, and at Pat's nod she sighed.
"Pat you know I hate visiting that place."
"I know you don't like that city, but I stopped there on the way to Seafoam and Morty asked me for a one on one battle, ghost pokemon only, and I recall someone wanting to watch Morty's ego get taken down a few notches."
"Well ok I do want to see you battle him. But afterwards we head to the pokemon center for the night."
Dustin spoke up after hearing where they were planing on going.
"Well if we are heading to Ecruteak can I suggest that we get going as it is we're going to be lucky if we make it there by nightfall."
Grinning, "Oh we'll make there long before nightfall." Moving into the field he threw out one of his pokeballs. "Winter, come fourth" The pokeball opened and released a blast of cold air.
"Damn. What pokemon is that Pat?" Dustin asked shivering from the aura of cold. "Oh. How did you manage to catch him?" "Her, and I didn't catch her, I was holding her egg when it hatched."
"Well Dustin, you going to release your bird or not." Pat asked as he Climbed on to his bird and reaching down to help Mary up.
"I choose you Pidgeot" "ok let's go" he said as he climbed on his bird. The flight to Ecruteak itself was uneventful.
Ecruteak City:
Landing just on the outskirts of Ecruteak, both Dustin and Pat recalled their birds and headed towards Ecruteak gym. Upon entering the gym, they were greeted by a gastly. "Hey gastly can you tell Morty that I'm here." Fading out of sight for a few minutes and when it returned it led them to a classroom. "I guess classes are still going on. Oh well more fun that way." Opening the door to the classroom they saw that indeed there was a class in progress. Hearing the door open Morty looked up. "Hey pat good timing these kids are ready to see just how well a ghost pokemon can battle. You ready?" Moving to arena they waited
for everyone to find a seat in the bleachers. Once everyone found a seat Morty called out. "Ok pat as we agreed earlier a one-on-one ghost pokemon battle only. No items are allowed, only what the pokemon is holding. Ready?" "Anytime" he replied. "Go gengar" Morty yelled throwing the pokeball. "Cloaker come out." Pat said as he released his own gengar.
Morty: "Gengar start off with Lick."
Pat: "That routine again Morty, Cloaker, Confuse Ray".
The class watched as Morty's gengar extended it's tongue trying to lick Pat's ghostly companion, only to have a black ball of sparkles slam into it.
Pat: "Good shot Cloaker, now Mind reader, and Hypnosis."
Morty: "Gengar shake off the confusion and hit it with your Shadow Ball." Unfortunately for Morty his Gengar couldn't even tell which way was up and ended up hitting itself and then got put to sleep for his troubles.
Pat: "Now Cloaker, Curse it, and follow up with Dream-Eater." Pulling out an iron nail Cloaker held it up for everyone to see. Pointing the nail towards Morty's Gengar, it then stabbed the nail into itself. Then it used its Dream-Eater attack to restore the health it lost when it cursed Morty's Gengar.
Morty: "Gengar wakeup and use your nightshade." Gengar's snoring could be heard through out the arena.
Pat: "Cloaker, end it. Use Psychic." Eyes glowing with power, Cloaker released wave after wave of mental energy into Morty's gengar. When Cloaker stopped its attack gengar stood there for a minute before fainting.
Morty: "Return gengar, you tried your best." "A good battle pat, judging from the cheers I'm sure the kids enjoyed watching it."
Pat: "Return Cloaker, thanks for the battle Morty. But you should have known that your gengar was going to have trouble against mine." Turning to face the class. "You saw how the two of us battled, it takes many years of practice to be able to battle with the attacks I used in the way I did. So listen to Morty and then listen to what your friend says as well. Sometimes the pokemon knows better."
Going over to where Mary and Dustin were sitting, "Well we ready to go?" "The sooner the better. Good battle though Pat." Exiting the gym they proceeded in heading over to the pokemon center. "Hi Nurse Joy."
Looking up from the computer in front of her. "Oh hi Mary, I heard that you were heading off on a journey,you need a room for the night?" Joy asked "Two rooms if possible please."
"Hmm let me see what's left." After checking her computer. "Well it seems that there are two rooms left.
One has a bunk-bed and the other is a single." Tossing the card keys to Mary "Thanks joy. "She said as she caught them "Have fun on your journey, oh and Pat blackthorn called, and said thank you for the medicine you left behind." Heading down the hallway they reached the rooms they were given. Handing one of the cards to Dustin and walking down to the other room. She turned around. "Night Dustin. You plan on staying out in the hallway Pat?" "No not really I'll be over in a few I'm going to drop off my pokemon for Nurse Joy to heal." walking back to the front desk, he handed over his pokeballs, "Pick them up in the morning?" he asked "Sure thing, good night." "Night nurse joy" walking down to the room that Mary
picked. He knocked on the door. "It's unlocked." walking in pat locked the door behind him. "You want the top bunk or bottom?" Mary asked, "top is fine"
As they all went to bed Dustin went into his room and saw that it was a nice room.
"Well, time to for bed, Sparky." said Dustin. She squealed in agreement.
They slid into bed.
"Well, tomorrow we start a brand new adventure." He said to his Pichu
The next mourning Dustin woke to a pounding on his door.
He got up and opened the door. Mary and Pat were standing there.
"Are you going to stay in bed all day, sleeping beauty?" Mary asked.
"No, I'll be right out in a second."
He closed the door to change out his sleep clothes and into his day wear.
"Lets go Sparky." he said as she hopped up on his shoulder. Dustin opened the door. As he walked into the lobby of the Pokemon center he heard from behind him
"Nice pj's." said Mary.
Uh...Thanks." said Dustin. His tummy emited a loud growl, echoed by Sparky's.
"Hmm, I think we should eat first before we leave for the new league up north." suggested Mary.
"Oh by the way, what's it called?" asked Dustin.
"It's called the Blue Mountain League." Pat answered.
After eating a small breakfast they headed out of town.
"Well should we walk or ride our Pokemon?" asked Dustin.
"Let's ride said Mary.
She called out her Arcanine and Dustin called out his Rapidash. They raced each other along the route they arrived at a newly built path.
"Looks pretty long." said Dustin. He read a nearby sign. "Wow, it should be...it goes right through the mountains."
"Well then, we should get going." said Pat.
Does any one have a map?" asked Dustin.
"Here." said Mary as she handed a folded up map to Dustin. "I got that from Nurse Joy."
Dustin studied the map carefully.
"Well...it looks like it will be a three-day trip, that is if we make good time." Dustin concluded.
"Looks like we have us our map-reader for the trip." teased Mary.
"Ok..." said Dustin.
The trip was to the first city in the new league. As the second day was about to end they made camp, and put up their tents, then went looking for firewood. Dustin was walking by a small lake and he saw a pokemon that was glowing a beautiful green. It looked at him and flew away and vanished into thin air.
When Dustin returned to camp, he told Mary and Pat of what he saw. Mary thought about what he's said, and a name came to mind.
"Oh, I think it was Celebi...I guess that means this is a beautiful forest if it is here."
At that they all went into their tents.
The next day they packed up camp and decided to walk the rest of the way. As the team walked up over the last hill they saw a large city spread out before them.
"Wow, it's beautiful." Dustin said in awe. "Let's get to the pokemon center." Walking down the hill towards the city they passed a sign that said welcome to Kingstone, elevation 1000 ft.
They arrived at the front doors an hour later, around 7:00 at night. As they walked in, nurse Joy walked up to them.
"Welcome to our Pokemon center. May I heal your Pokemon and would you like two rooms for the night?
We have one with bunk beds the other one is a single bed."
They accepted the rooms and left their Pokemon with Joy, except for Sparky and Eevee.
"Let's register for the league tomorrow." Mary yawned.
"Good idea." Pat agreed.
"Sounds good to Me.," said Dustin.
"See you in the morning Dustin," called Mary as she walked down the hall. Walking over to the small bookcase, pat found one on training ice and water types, as well as one for training fire types. "What the heck I need laugh anyway." He mumbled as he picked the two books up. Walking over to Nurse Joy to let her know that he had those books.
"Oh I was wondering where those went, if you want, you can keep them. No one has bothered to go through those books in the longest time." She said with a small smile.
"I think I just might do that, night Joy" walking the hallway, Pat knocked on the door. "Come in." opening
the door pat walked in, "I found a book you might like, Joy said we could keep them." handing Mary the book on fire types, Pat walked over to the restroom and changed into his sleep wear, (black sweat pants, and black T-shirt)
"Night Mary" "good night pat" she had just closed the blinds when she felt a blast of cold air in the room.
Turning she saw the shape of a pokemon where pat had been looking at her with glowing blue eyes; "Ice" was all it said. Smiling she felt a wave of heat enter the room as well. Turning off the light she let the change come over her, hopping into her bed next to her sleeping eevee.
Morning light flittered in through the curtains, striking Pat in the face. Seeing that he wasn't going to be falling back asleep anytime soon, he decided to go get his pokemon from joy. "Morning nurse Joy." he called as he walked into the main room. "Morning" she yawned. "Here to get your pokemon?" she asked pouring herself some coffee "Yeah and I was wondering if I could get Mary's as well." he answered. "Sure, wait right and I'll get them," walking into the storage room, she came back out with both belts. "Here you go Pat. Anything else?" she asked as she handed the belts to Pat. "Not right now, after everyone else wakes
up we would like to register for the Blue Mountain League" he answered. "Ok I'll do that for you three when you're ready to leave." "Thanks joy" walking back the hallway. Once he had gotten into the room, he released Mary's pokemon, setting five bowls of poke chow down. "Ok there you go, eat up its going to be a busy day." Seeing that Mary's pokemon were eating, he released his own pokemon for their breakfast, putting down some more poke chow. "Eat up we're going to be busy today." Looking over at Mary's pokemon and seeing that were done, he returned to their pokeballs. Eevee being full of energy bounced over to Mary's sleeping form and landed next to her bouncing the bed. "Morning eevee, but next time you want to wake me up don't bounce on the bed." Standing up, she walked into the restroom, a few minutes later she came ready to get started for the day. "You ready pat?" she asked. "Yeah let's go" was his reply as he handed Mary her pokebelt; they walked out to the main room where Dustin was waiting for them, with Sparky perched on his shoulder.
"You three ready to register for the Blue Mountain league?" asked joy.
"Yes, we're ready for it." was their reply. "Ok if you'll hand me your pokedex I'll go ahead and register you" handing over their pokedex, they watched as nurse joy went through the registration process with each one.
"OK your now registered in the blue mount. league. Here is a guide book for you, it will tell you a little about each town in the league and also has a map of where all of the pkmn centers are." she said after she was done and handed back their pokedex. "Thanks joy, we'll see you after the league." And with that they left the pokecenter
.
"Well looking at the map, I'm going to say we have a week long trip ahead of us to next city, what does the book say about the league?" asked Dustin
"Good question, let's see." Mary flipping through her book. "Oh it says that each one of the badges is named after a different gemstone, and is made out of that gem," trainers should expect, long and hard gym battles, and should weary when traveling up the mountain to the final gym, due to the snow covered cap. I guess they have avalanches every now and then," she said looking up from the book. "Well then I guess we should get started." stated pat, as he pulled out two small rods from his backpack tossing one over to Mary. Dustin just watched as the rods lengthen into a staff. "I'll make one for you later Dustin." said pat.
"Come on you two, other wise I'll leave you behind" called Mary spinning around to face the road they saw that she had gotten a good head start on them.
"It's like this, I was solving a legend..."
Uninterested, Mary sat, absently petting Eevee. It wasn't that she didn't believe Dustin (how couldn't she
after she saw him change?), but after hearing it once, she was bored.
