Chapter 20: No Shame with Shane!

The see-through glass doors of the Slateport Pokemon Center opened wide, from them walked out a much mature and more confident Shane.

Shane had also taken a huge change, now being somewhat more toned and muscular, his clothes had also taken a change from the reserve and traditional outfit he once sported. He wore a pair of faded in blue jeans to match his red shirt and lightweight vintage black jacket, around his waist was a full Pokeball holder belt while a red bandanna pulled his hair back with the Johto emblem in the center.

"Time to head back home," he whispered to himself as his eyes met with the white boat ticket in his hand. "This place sure was fun," he looked up at the gleaming sun and smiled, 'Just think of the stories I can finally tell Dustin!'

Shane had just finished his two-month trip in Hoenn, where he met the Fortree City Flying Pokemon Gym Leader. He battled the leader and lost, but only by a slight hair, something his brother will be proud of.

He was caught in his thoughts as an elder woman nudged his arm. "Huh?!" Shane turned around and jerked back some until he realized the older woman was trying to tell something. "Uh- what are you selling?"

"You'll need this honey," the older woman weakly grinned, she handed Shane another ticket, "You dropped it back in the Center." She handed it to him and walked away just as weird as she had came.

'Oh yeah,' he looked at the second ticket, 'My ticket to get into the battling class on the boat,' he smacked himself on the forehead, 'How could I have forgot?!'

Slateport, as usual was very crowded and busy, people from all over the world came to Hoenn through this town, this place was also a hot spot for travelers to rest as well as young trainers competing in the Hoenn League. However something important was happening at this moment...

"FLYING CONTEST!" one man cried he was dressed in a Swablu mascot outfit. "FLYING CONTEST! TODAY AT THE DOCKS!" he waved some flyers in his hand back and fourth in the crowded streets.

'Flying contest?!' Shane thought and walked over to the man. "Did you say a flying contest? Like in Flying type Pokemon?"

"OH COURSE!" he yelled and then noticed his mistake. "Oops, I'm sorry. Anyways yes there is a flying contest today. Trainers must use their Pokemon to knock down targets in the air. Winner gets a Golden Feather Trophy."

"I'm so in!" Shane clutched his fist together in determination as he brought it to his face. 'This contest is mine!' he continued to think to himself.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Shane stood on the edge of the dock, next to four other trainers. This was the contest, though not many people entered to Shane's surprise. He looked over to the left where two girls were while on the right stood two boys, all with determined looks on their faces.

"The rules are simple!" a tall and skinny man dressed in a judge's white and black outfit stood up behind the other trainers. "There are five targets in the air, whoever can knock the most out with their ONE Pokemon is the winner! You may engage in aerial battles!" he crossed his arms down, "BEGIN!"

From four flashes arose a Swablu, Swellow, Pelliper and a Butterfree from the other trainers. Shane looked down at his Pokeball and threw it, "Go Pidgeot!" and from the flash merged the amazing bird, chirping loudly and full of pride.

"Fly at the target Swablu!" one of the girls, who had blue hair ordered. "Use Agility and then Peck it before anyone else can do anything!"

"Swa! Swa!" Swablu flapped it's cloudy wings and started zooming in on the red and white target floating on the string of a balloon. With more and more powerful flaps Swablu drew closer to the first target...

"Psychic Butterfree!" the second girl, who had orange hair, countered.

A purple aura enwrapped Swablu's tiny body. Butterfree chirped loudly as it drew back Swablu near the dock. "Free! Free!" Butterfree drew Swablu back even more before releasing it's grip and heading for the target Swablu was aiming for.

"Swellow!" a red headed boy cried and pointed at another target, "Use Peck!"

"No you get it Pelliper!" the purple hair boy countered, "Wing Attack!"

"Agility Pidgeot!" Shane ordered as he pointed at the same target, "Then use Air Cutter!"

Pidgeot, being much more faster than Swellow and Pelliper, zoomed past the two and slashed it's beak into the target, crushing it into nothing but dust, which fell to the deep sea bellow. Then Pidgeot flapped it's massive wings and blew a gale powerful enough to knock Swellow and Pelliper off balance.

"Butterfree now use Silver Wind!"

Shane jolted his head in Butterfree's direction. The Bug/Flying type was summoning up some pixie dust into it's wings, ready to destroy the target Swablu was aiming for. "Pidgeot use Faint Attack!" Shane quickly came back.

"Geot!" Pidgeot flapped it's wings and slowly dissolved into the air, reforming behind Butterfree, the Bird Pokemon slashed it's large and sharp talons into Butterfree's back, causing the butterfly to scream in pain and lose altitude. Pidgeot continued to destroy the target.

'Three left,' Shane counted the targets mentally.

"Use Water Gun on Pidgeot!" the boy with Pelliper commanded.

"Liper!" the pelican caught it's balance and opened the large beak of his, spraying out a jet of crystal blue cold water, aimed at Pidgeot, who was flapping hard.

"Mirror Move!" Shane retaliated.

"Geot!" Pidgeot conjured up an invisible barrier as the Water Gun came closer, the barrier sent the Water Gun back at it's creator. Pelliper cried in pain as the jet crossed into it's eyes, causing the Water/Flying type to gawk in pain.

Swablu was now closer to another target, going in for the kill but...

"Feather Dance Pidgeot!"

"Eot!" the Bird Pokemon flapped his majestic wings, blowing out a pillar of razor sharp feathers. The storm of quills cut deep into Swablu's blue skin, leaving deep red slash marks, the feathers also destroyed the third target, leaving only two more left.

"Destroy that one!" Shane pointed to a target, "Faint Attack!"

Pidgeot disappeared quickly and reformed even quicker in front of the target he brought his massive talons into the target, crushing the object into nothing more than a strain of dust, which was blown away by an ocean zephyr.

"Free!" Butterfree used a Psychic and crushed the final target in a purple mass of mental energy.

The judge blew the whistle. "That is the end of the contest!"

All five trainers thanked their Pokemon and withdrew them back into their own Pokeball respectively.

The judge walked up to Shane and lifted his hand into the air, "This is our winner! Shane and Pidgeot!" he cheered as the other four clapped. A woman walked to the judged and handed him a small golden trophy with bird wings on the golden orb at the tip. "Here is your trophy," he handed it to Shane.

"Thank you," Shane smiled as he took the trophy, 'Another accomplishment,' he thought and smiled. 'I can't wait to tell Dustin!'

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Shane peered off into the endless mass of ocean as the cruise ship he was riding skimmed along the sea's surface. He smiled at the falling sun in the far horizon, clutching his trophy he turned around and started walking to his room, for soon he would be back in Johto!

While Dustin is working on a trophy in the Orange Islands, Shane has already won one in Slateport! A lot has happened to the young Flying type trainer and he can't wait to retell his stories to his two best friends, Dustin and Jen!
