Chapter 26: Silver and the Battle Against Psyduck!
The excitement was building up inside of him, and he just couldn't hold it in any longer. Silver let out a loud cheer as Goldenrod City came more within his view, although still a quarter of a mile away! Yet, Silver was still excited because he felt that, with Skiploom's help, he could win his next Johto League badge. He saw a small lake just ahead.
"That looks like a nice place to rest for a little while.", Silver said. He walked toward the lake. All of a sudden, he felt himself falling. Silver had tripped over something.
"PSYYYYYY!", screamed the thing he had tripped over. Silver looked behind him, and saw a average-sized yellow duck. It held on to it's big, round head with a firm grip. SIlver checked his Pokedex, and it told him that the Pokemon's name was Psyduck, and that it constantly had a headache.
"What kind of a Pokemon would always have a headache?", SIlver wondered to himself. He began to get up, when he saw a young boy running toward them.
"Hey!", he yelled, "what did you do to my Psyduck?!"
"I'm sorry", Silver said, "but I didn't mean to!"
"That's OK", the boy said, "It's not your fault!" The boy then turned to Psyduck.
"You be more careful where you lie around!", the boy said. Psyduck held it's head further.
"I'm Todd", the boy said, "and who are you?"
"I'm Silver, and I'm going to become the worlds greatest Pokemon Master!", SIlver replied to Todd.
"It's so nice to meet you, Silver", Todd replied, "how about we have a battle?"
"A battle?", Silver responded, "I guess I could have a battle, to warm up for my next gym match!"
"Perfect", Todd said, "let's make this a one on one fight!"
"That's just fine with me!", Silver said. He took out his Pokeball.
"I choose Skiploom!", Silver shouted. Skiploom came out of it's Pokeball, prepared to fight.
"I will be using my Psyduck!", Todd said. Psyduck stepped forard. Skiploom faced his opponent, for the match was about to begin.
"Skiploom, use extremespeed and move in circles around Psyduck!", SIlver commanded. Skiploom began to move really swiftly around Psyduck. Psyduck looked not at all dazed. It just stared blankly into space. SIlver began to think something was wrong.
"Hey, is your Psyduck OK?!", Silver asked Todd.
"Oh yeak, Psyduck is fine, you'll see", Todd replied. Skiploom continued to move around in circles around Psyduck. Skiploom then got dizzy and fell to the floor.
"Skiploom!", Silver cried.
"Now, Psyduck, use Scratch attack!", Todd commanded. Pysduck bared it's claws and ran toward Skiploom. It scratched Skiploom, but it hardly did any damage.
"What was that?", Silver asked.
"That was Psyduck's Scratch attack, but it's not as powerful as it seems!", Todd said.
"That wasn't really powerful at all!", Silver remarked.
"Well", Todd said, "you haven't seen Psyducks true power!" Silver looked angry.
"OK, Skiploom, let's teach 'em a lesson with a Tackle attack!", Silver commanded. Skiploom tackled Psyduck, but it didn't have any effect.
"What is this?", Silver asked. Todd just watched.
"You'll see!", Todd replied cooly. Silver wasn't sure that he wanted to see. He ordered Skiploom to continue tackling Psyduck, but it still didn't have any effect.
"Keep trying!", Silver commanded. Skiploom continued to tackle. Then, Psyduck began to hold his head tighter than before.
"Psyduck, use Confusion", Todd said. A blue aura surrounded Skiploom. Suddenly, it began to move on it's own, slamming into the ground, raising into the air, and then slamming into the ground again.
"What's going on?!", SIlver screamed, "SKIPLOOM!" The force of the attack sent Skiploom into the lake. It had fainted, and Psyduck was the winner. Silver jumped into the lake and got his Skiploom out.
"You tried your best", SIlver told it, "You really did do a very good job". He put Skiploom back in it's Pokeball, and looked at Todd and Psyduck celebrating.
"That is a cool Pokemon", SIlver thought to himself, "I must catch one". He walked over to Todd and congratulated him. They both shook the others hand. However, while they weren't looking, a cage floated down from the sky. It picked up Psyduck in one fell swoop and locked it up. Psyduck was too confused to know that it was being kidnapped... by Team Rocket!
"That was a great match", Todd said, "Psyduck, come say congratulations to Silver!" He looked around, but couldn't find Psyduck.
"Oh, he always just wanders off aimlessly!", Todd remarked. Silver then caught sight of the balloon, with a cage dangling from it.
"Or maybe, Team Rocket has it!", SIlver cried. Todd saw the balloon.
"They are going into Goldenrod City, and I know how to cut them off!", Todd replied

"We're the masters of all that's wrong", said Mitch.
"Hear us sing our villanous song", said Julie.
"Stealing Pokemon every day and night", said Mitch.
"Going against what is right!", said Julie.
"Mitch", said Mitch.
"Julie", said Julie.
"We're Team Rocket, faster than light", said Mitch.
"Give us your Pokemon or get ready to fight!", said Julie.
"We've finally got a neat Pokemon, and we don't even know what it is!", Julie stated.
"We will soon", Mitch said, "as soon as we get back to headquarters!"
"It will be the perfect prize for the boss!", Julie replied. Mitch agreed with her.
"We'll just ship this Pokemon off to the boss!", Mitch said.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Silver and Todd ran through the big city. Buildings and Skyscrapers reached up as far as the eye could see. Silver could plainly see that they were far ahead of Team Rocket's building. Todd pointed at the nearby department store.
"Inside!", Todd said, "we can catch them!" Silver and Todd ran into the department store. They ran past a whole bunch of people that were shopping for Poke-goods. They found the stairwell and started to run upstairs. There were a lot of flights of stairs, until finally, they came out on the roof. Silver saw the cage float right in front of him. Silver ran after the cage and jumped onto it. He looked at Psyduck.
"We'll get you out of here", Silver told Psyduck. Psyduck just stared blankly at Silver.
"PSY!", it stated. Julie looked down at him.
"Looks like we've got a twerp on to us!", She said. She sent out Sandshrew to attack Silver. It went after Silver and scratched at him. SIlver ducked, and opened the cage. He held on to Psyduck, took a deep breath, and jumped off of the cage. He landed on another rooftop, while Team Rocket just floated away.
"I'll get you yet!", Julie called out as Team Rocket left the scene. Silver held on to Psyduck.
"It's great you're OK", SIlver said. Psyduck didn't repond. Todd caught up to them and took Psyduck.
"Psyduck, I'm so glad you're safe!", Todd told it. He then thanked Silver.
"Thank you so much!", Todd said, "I am very grateful, and Psyduck is too, right!"
"Psy, yi, yi!", Psyduck stated. Silver nodded, they then turned and looked at the Goldenrod sunset over by the harbor. It made the water sparkle. Soon, SIlver would head to the Pokemon Center for the night, and get ready for his next gym battle.
