~The Early Bird Catches the Chikorita!~
The night approached the gang as they make their way to Azalea Town, and the next pokemon gym challenge. "We need to find a pokemon center soon," Jen said, they were walking through the same surruondings, a woody area.
"It says here," Shane viewed the map, "There should be a center right......there!" he pointed, it was a small building with a bug red "P" on it.
"YEAH!" Dustin ran inside the center, the center was almost hidden among the forest, he came in and then followed Shane and Jen, "NURSE JOY!" Dustin ran to the desk.
"Yes...." Nurse Joy looked confused as she wrote something down on a clip board behind the desk.
"Remeber me?" Dustin asked, "From Violet City?"
"No..." Nurse Joy looked confused, then she smiled, "That was my third cousin."
"Huh?" Dustin was confused, "You look just like her..."
"All the Joys are kin," Jen informed Dustin, "You'll have to excuss him...he's ah...new." Jen smiled.
"Oh course," Joy smiled, "Are you guys staying at the center tonight?" Joy asked.
"Yeah," Dustin smiled, walking over to the bench, the center was small, beside the doors were benchs with paddng, then the desk, and on one side a hallway and on the other side a t.v. phone, "Better call my mom," Dustin ran to the phone and dailed his number. The phone rang a couple of times, but no answer, "She might be shopping, better call Elm," Dustin dialed Elm's number, after two rings the nerdy man answered, the screen showed his face.
"Hi Dustin," Elm said.
"Hey Professor," Dustin said, holding his Zephyr Badge, "Look I won a badge at the Violet City Gym!"
"Good job," Elm was actually surprised Dustin won a gym battle, "And how is Larvitar and your other pokemon?"
"Fine," Dustin then remembered, "Oh yeah I caught a Cyndaquil!"
"You did?" Elm smiled, "That's a great addition to your team, fire type pokemon are strong."
"We're heading to Azalea Town," Dustin informed the professor.
"Oh....then a fire pokemon will help you out a lot," Elm said, "Bugsy is the leader of Azalea Town, he is a tough bug type pokemon trainer."
"Cyndaquil will burn through those bugs," Dustin said, "Plus I got my friends support," Dustin pointed to Shane and Jen.
"Good," Elm smiled, "Well I must get going..." he vanished from the screen, coming back on it holding a Catperie, "Good luck."
"Bye Professor," Dustin said, Elm's screen went black and Dustin clicked the phone to end the message.
"Kids," Nurse Joy said, "I am shutting down the center, please make sure you have everything."
"We're fine," Jen said, smiling as Nurse Joy shut down everything, Dustin and the gang went down a hallway next to the desk, on the other side of the phone. They walked into the room, two sets of bunk-beds were all that was in the room.
"Well," Shane said, turning on the lights, "This is it."
"Better than the ground," Jen said, refering to past nights when the gang had to camp out, "I'm gonna let my pokemon come out," Jen said, throwing her three pokeballs, Mareep, Maril, and Oddish came out.
"Good idea," Shane said, sending his Pidgey, Hoothoot, and Spearow out, they flew to the top bunk of one of the beds.
"Ok," Dustin smiled, sending out Larvitar, Teddiursa, Totodile, and Cyndaquil. "Come on out guys," Dustin said, the pokemon came out.
"Here," Jen said, laying three plates of pokemon food down, all the pokemon started to eat it.
"What's that?" Dustin asked, his pokemon seemed to love it.
"Larv!" Larvitar ate little pieces and smiled.
"TOTO!" Totodile jumped up and down, smacking the food.
"Rusa..." Teddiursa slowly ate the food and grinned.
"Quil..." Cyndaquil looked at it funny, then Dustin smiled and Cyndaquil ate some.
"Pokemon food," Jen smiled, "My personal recipe, I plan on learning all about pokemon, their behavior, attitude, everything."
"The pokemon love it," Shane said, complementing Jen.
"PID!" Pidgey flapped it's wings, eating the food.
"SPEAR!" Spearow immitated Pidgey.
"HOO!" Hoothoot hopped on one foot and ate the food.
"Thanks," Jen explained, "It took a long time to learn how to make the perfect mix of vitamins and minerals...and make it taste good."
"Hello," a tall boy, his hair light and fair, "Seems everyone had the idea to stay at this center," he smiled walking in the room.
"My name is Dustin," Dustin quickly introduced himself, "This is Jen," he pointed to Jen who smield, "And this is Shane."
"Hi," Shane said as Dustin introduced him.
"My name is Rino," the boy said, "I've been looking in this area for a while."
"Why?" Dustin asked, sitting down on one of the bunk beds.
"Chikorita," Rino smirked, "I love Chikorita."
"Chikorita?" Dustin questioned, pulling out his pokedex.
"Chikorita," Devon started to analyze, "This grass type pokemon's leaf sends out all sorts of scents, it's leaf is also used to cover it's self in the hot summer."
"Sweet!" Dustin said, putting up his pokedex, "I want a Chikorita!"
"Then you better wake up early!" Rino said, "Chikoritas of this area only come out early in the morning, to feed."
"No way," Dustin's eyes light up, "I better go to bed right now!" he returned his pokemon and put them in his pack.
"Rino," Jen said, returning her pokemon, "Where are you from?"
"Violet City," Rino replied.
"Me too," Shane responded, returning his bird pokemon, "I am Fawkner's brother."
"Really?" Rino asked, Shane nodded his head, "I trained at the Violet City Gym for a small time," Rino pulled out a pokeball from his back-pack, "That's where I met Natu," Rino unleashed the pokemon inside the pokeball.
"TU!" the small purple bird chirped.
"Huh?" Dustin questioned about the bird.
"A Natu," Shane's eyes light up, "That little bird can't fly good but it can use psychic attacks," Shane answered Dustin's question.
"Yep," Rino smiled returning his Natu, "Better get to bed." The four went to bed, Dustin on the top bunk and Jen on the buttom, Shane on the other top and Rino on the other bottom. The night was silent and long.
"Ken," Kym said, the two had been traveling by foot, "I'm getting tired...when is the boss gonna send us some cash?"
"Don't know," Ken replied, "We haven't actually stole any pokemon recently," they walked and then came to the Pokemon Center where Dustin was. "Hey a center!"
"We can steal there!" Kym smiled wickedly.
"Huh..." Dustin woke up, he looked at the clock, it showed he had been asleep only one hour, "Man I can't wait to catch a Chikorita..." he yawned agian, then heard a crash, "WHA?!" he silently got out of bed and grabbed his pokeballs, he then quietly snuck into the main section of the center, where the desk and door was.
"THE PUNK!" Kym said, "KEN THE PUNK!" she nudged Ken's shoulder.
"Not you agian....don't you give up?" Dustin asked.
"WE NEVER GIVE UP!" Ken said, "HOUNDOUR EMBER!"
"HOUN!" Houndour jumped and satrted to shot a fireball at Dustin.
"CYNDAQUIL!" Dustin summoned his newly caught pokemon, Cyndaquil came out and it's back fired up, "EMBER!"
"CYNDA!" Cyndaquil fired a fireball at Houndour's causing a small explosion.
"GHASTLY NIGHT SHADE!" Kym shouted.
"Ghas..." Ghastly sent purple waves at Cyndaquil.
"NATU PSYWAVE!" Rino said, walking up behind Dustin, "Couldn't sleep."
"TU!" Natu sent purple waves at Ghastly's attack, making a smaller explosion of purple energy.
"STUPID PUNKS!" Ken said.
"MARILL WATER GUN!" Jen shouted, running up to Dustin, "Everyone ok?"
"Yep," Dustin smiled.
"MARILL!" Marill shouted, spraying Team Alpha.
"WHY YOU!" Kym's eyes flared.
"SPEAROW GUST!" Shane met up with the gang.
"ROW!" Spearow flapped it's wings hard, making a strong gale.
"NO!!!!!!" Kym and Ken together, being blown out of the center.
Nurse Joy walked into the main room with a flash light. "What happened?"
"Thieves...but we got 'em" Dustin smiled, returning Cyndaquil.
"You guys should get some sleep," Nurse Joy said, walking back behind the desk.
The gang along with Rino walked back into the room, after returning their pokemon and went back to sleep, the night went along peacefully, until a shout awokened Dustin agian.
"I DID IT!" Rino said from the main part of the center.
"Huh?" Dustin asked, looking around, everyone gone, he then looked at the clock, "WHA?!" Dustin was shocked, he had overslept. He quickly got ready and ran into the main section.
"Chikorita," Rino smiled at his newly caught pokemon, "I love you," he just smiled.
"Congratulations," Jen said, "If only Dustin would have woke up sooner."
"You got one!" Dustin said, walking to them, "Cool, congrats."
"Dustin we tried to wake you up," Shane then thought about how hard it was to try to wake Dustin and all their attempts failed, "But..."
"It's ok," Dustin smiled, "Good job Rino."
"Thanks," Rino replied, returning Chikorita, "I better get going back home."
"See 'ya" Dustin said, Jen and Shane copied and waved as Rino walked out the center with a smile on his face.
"Man..." Dustin was a little dispointed.
"We need to get going," Shane said, "Come on." Shane and Jen were almost out of the center when Shane looked behind him, "Dustin you coming?"
"Uh.....yeah," Dustin quickly made it up to the gang, they started walking, the walking was silent, "Chikorita..." Dustin started, "Would make a perfect member of my team..."
"Yeah," Jen smiled, "You'll catch one..." she tried to cheer up Dustin.
"Azalea Town isn't far," Shane said, reading his map, "Hopefully we'll get there soon."
"Chika, Chika, Chika," a small pokemon with a leaf on it's head chirped, walking out of the bushes.
"A CHIKORITA!" Dustin's eyes light up.
"CHIKA!" Chikorita got in a fighting stance.
"It wants a battle Dustin," Jen said, "Give it one."
"You bet," Dustin smiled, "GO LARVITAR!"
"LARV!" Larvitar came into the battle.
"HEADBUTT!" Dustin's heart raced as he thought about Chikorita.
"TAR!" Larvitar quickly hit Chikorita hard.
"CHIKA!" Chikorita got up, "RITA!" two of the seeds around it's neck became vines.
"It's gonna use Vine Whip!" Shane informed Dustin.
"LARVITAR TACKLE!" Dustin commanded.
"TAR!" Larvitar went to tackle Chikortia, the vines of Chikorita hit Larvitar hard, "TAR!" Larvitar feel to it's back.
"Whoa..." Dustin smiled, "Good try Larvitar," he returned his pokemon, "I can't wait to catch you!" Dustin grabbed the pokeball containing Cyndaquil, "GO CYNDAQUIL!"
"QUIL!" Cyndaquil shouted, being summoned into the battle.
"CHIKA!" Chikorita did another Vine Whip.
"QUICK ATTACK!" Dustin shouted, "LET'S GO CYNDAQUIL!"
"QUIL!" Cyndaquil quickly dodged the Vine Whip and trusted it's body into Chikorita's.
"RITA!" Chikorita tilted it's head fast, two sharp leaves came flying to Cyndaquil.
"That's Chikorita's Razor Leaf attack," Jen informed Dustin.
"Right," Dustin looked at Cyndaquil, "SMOKESCREEN!"
"QUIL!" Cyndaquil's mouth opened and released heavy smoke, confusing Chikorita.
"Chika..." Chikorita tried to look around but only saw smoke.
"TACKLE!" Dustin shouted.
"QUIL!" Cyndauil's flames grew as it's body heavily trusted into Chikorita's knocking Chikorita back and on it's back.
"Chika...." Chikorita faintly cried.
"Now's your chance," Shane said.
"RIGHT!" Dustin smiled and grabbed a pokeball, "POKEBALL GO!" he slung the pokeball at Chikorita, it hit Chikorita and sucked it up, the ball shook once, twice, a third time and the red light along with the sound confirmed the catch. "YES!" Dustin shouted with joy, "I CAUGHT CHIKORITA!"
"Congratulations Dustin," Jen smiled, "I guess the late bird can catch the worm, -er Chikorita."
"Yep," Dustin looked at Cyndaquil, "Thanks buddy."
"QUIL!" Cyndauil shouted gleefully, being returned.
"Now back on our adventure," Shane said.
"TO AZALEA TOWN!" Dustin finished Shane's sentence, the three friends started walking on the dirt trail through the forest.
