"A Pokemon Gaining Adventure"
by Mistystuffer
Chapter 8
About another three weeks later, Joy came by with important news.
"The construction isn't complete and some important equipment hasn't arrived yet, so the Pokemon Center won't be opening
for another month!" Joy exclaimed happily.
"That's great, you have more time now," Misty noted.
"Yeah, I didn't have much of a chance this month to get out of my job."
"Hey, it's been quite a while, what do you say about going over to Tracey's to weigh in? You can see how much you've grown
and I'm just curious about how much I am."
"Great idea."
"I'll go get Ash."
Soon after, Ash, Misty, and Joy were heading over to Professor Oak's lab. They knocked on the door which was answered by
Tracey.
"Hi guys!" Tracey greeted.
"Hey, Tracey! We thought we'd stop by to have a weigh in," Misty said, then giggled.
"Yeah, we think we may have put on a few pounds since about a month ago," Joy added.
"Ok, I'll go get it set up."
Ash and the girls waited nearby for Tracey to finish.
"You know, I am quite interested to what it's going to say," Ash said.
"Oh Ash, I'm sure it's going to be nothing really..." Misty answered modestly.
Tracey came back into the room. "All set."
Joy quickly hurried up. "I'll go first!"
Joy stepped up on the scale. The bright red digital numbers began to come up.
"197!" Joy gasped, "I'm doing fantastic! But still way off..."
"Wow. You sure gained a lot. Guess it's my turn now."
Misty stepped up on the scale. It read 246.
"That's a lot more than I thought it would be..." Misty said, sweatdropping.
"Good job, Misty," Ash praised.
"But I'm not even trying to..."
"Sure..."
Ash nicely patted the side of her exposed belly. Misty gave him a look.
"Aww, don't be mad," he said, trying to get her in a better mood, "I'll take you out to dinner tonight, ok?"
Misty cheered up. "But there's something I'd like to know, Joy, how did you gain so much more since last time?"
"That's easy," Tracey explained, "Joy would eat normal meals at home, and would often eat second ones over here, aside
from restaurants and other places."
"I guess I'm a growing girl," Joy said, giggling.
"Ash, when can we have that dinner you were talking about?" Misty asked, leaning up against Ash.
"Uh, any time, I guess...."
Misty grabbed Ash's arm and pulled him towards the door. "Bye Tracey! Bye Joy!"
"Bye guys!" both of them answered.
"Bye...." Ash moaned, being drug along the ground out the door.
"I'd better be getting home soon too," Joy said, "See ya!"
After going on the short walk home, Joy entered the side of the Pokemon Center, which was the living quarters for her and
her aunt. She went through the cabinets and found a big batch of chocolate chip cookies. Then she went in the other room
and sat down to watch TV. After eating at least half of the cookies, Joy let her stomach jut out from under her pink T-
shirt. It was then that her aunt walked in the room.
"Eating, again?" she sighed, "Really, I don't mean to be insultive, but you've gotten quite pudgy lately, young lady."
Joy just shrugged her shoulders and bit into another cookie.
"I'll let you finish those cookies but afterwards no more sweets, understand? To be a Pokemon Nurse you need to be fit."
Her aunt then walked out of the room. Joy was rather upset. Her aunt was now on bothering her about it. She knew there
would be no more overeating at home.
Later that evening they ate dinner.
"Wha?... Salad? I hate salad!" she complained.
"Apparently we need to start eating healthier," her aunt stated.
Joy groaned. "Can I have some milk?"
"I'm sorry, we're only having water."
Nurse Joy poured Joy a glass.
Joy spent a few minutes lightly munching on lettuce and carrots, which she didn't find too great. She was disgusted. She
wanted ham, pizza, all the things she used to eat. Then she remembered all she had to do was go over to Tracey's place
later. She tried to look cheerful and finished her dinner. Afterwards she went over to see Tracey.
"Hi."
"Hey. How come you're back so soon?"
"My aunt is putting me on a horrible diet. I have to have some real food!"
"I still have to do the shopping so I suppose we can eat out."
"Sounds great, I'm so starved!"
Tracey and Joy found a nice little restaurant in Pallet Town, and they entered, only to hear two very familiar voices.
"C'mon, we have to go, we've been here at least an hour and a half!"
"Don't rush me! I still need to finish this steak!"
"Misty? Ash?" Joy called.
Ash and Misty looked at the two, sweatdropping and blushing.
"Do you guys want this seat?" Ash offered, "We were just leaving."
"We are not, Ash," Misty growled, "I'm not done eating yet."
Misty chewed on a big chunk of steak.
"Ohh... steak..." Joy said, nearly drooling.
"Hey! It's mine!" Misty yelled defensively.
"I'm sorry, Misty. It's just my aunt is trying to make me go on a diet."
"Ohh... you poor girl..., Misty said, giving Joy a big squishy hug and patted her back, "Well I'll trust that Tracey will
be taking care of you, right?"
"Yep. He brought me here for a nice big dinner!"
Ash noticed Misty was standing and jumped in.
"Alright, time to go!" he said, grabbing Misty's hand.
"But Ash I'm not..."
"Just take the steak with you!" he quickly said, grabbing said item, "Here! We need to get home and I can't very well
leave you here by yourself."
"But before we go I'd like some ice cre--"
"I'll buy you some on the way home."
"Ohh....," Misty moaned, "I don't want to wait that long..."
Ash and a reluctant Misty exited the restaurant.
"They're so cute together," Joy said, giggling.
"They may fight a lot but they always make up in the end," Tracey stated, "So what do you want to order?"
Joy glanced over the menu. "Well, for starters, Misty made me hungry with that steak, so I'll have a 72 ouncer!"
Later that evening, Joy returned home, belly full of meat and plenty of other food items. It bulged out from under her
shirt nicely.
"Where have you been all evening, young lady?" her aunt demanded to know, mostly asking just out of curiosity.
"I was out... seeing some friends," Joy told her. It wasn't a lie, really. "You met them right after we moved into town.
Ash, Misty, and Tracey."
"Oh, that's nice. I'm glad to hear you already have some friends around here."
"Yeah, it is. Well, I'm really sleepy, I'm going to bed. Goodnight."
Joy washed up and then got under her covers. She then quietly reached behind her bed to pull out a candy bar from her tiny
secret stash. She may need to be relying on this more in the future. She quickly polished it off and fell asleep.
