THE SURPRISE BATTLE

Alex, Catherine and Gena were making a stop off in Viridian City. Alex was happy with his new Pidgeotto and was training it in Viridian forest. Catherine on the other hand was just playing with her Smoochem and Sentret in the forest. Gena had taken her Rattata out and was now trying to catch a Poochyena.

"All right Rattata, you did great, now, Pokeball go!" Said Gena and threw the Pokeball in a spinning Red-White blur. The Poochyena looked a bit startled as it was enveloped in a white light, then it disappeared inside. The Pokeball shook, once, twice, three times. "All right, I caught it!" Gena said happily, holding up the Pokeball, which held her new Poochyena.

Alex on the other hand, had raised his Pidgeotto really high and was now training Magby. "Lava, use ember on the Zigzagoon!" Magby shot out a blazing heap of fire and scorched the Zigzagoon. It fell to the floor trying to get up. "Sweet! Pokeball go!" Alex threw the Pokeball and Zigzagoon disappeared inside. The ball shook, once, twice, three times. "All right, I caught it!" Alex said pumping his fist in the air.

Just then a Caterpie crawled into the clearing. "You know what to do, Lava ember!" The flames hit the Caterpie and it fell back a bit, it was scorched. "Way t g- huh?" The Caterpie stood up, only it wasn't Caterpie any more, it was a Metapod! "All right Lava, this one doesn't seem to want to give up, use ember then pound!" Magby flew forward blowing fire from its mouth and then pounding the Metapod like there was no tomorrow. But just before either attack hit, the Metapod had used Harden! "Damn it! It just won't give up!" Alex growled.

Just then a girl wandered into the clearing, "Have you seen my Caterpie?" She asked. Alex pointed, "I think it just evolved." "Oh! Yay! I have a Metapod, now that's one step closer to a Butterfry!" She said, "Oh by the way, I'm Soulder, the new gym leader at Pewter City, since my big brother left. And now I've changed the gym to bug!" Soulder said. "Ok then, I challenge you to a three on three battle with three pokemon each on the field at one time, my sister and my friend will complete our side." Alex said laying down the rules for the battle. "Ok, go get your sister and friend and follow me to Pewter."
When they reached the gym Soulder sent out her Pokemon, a Beautifly, Metapod and Beedrill. Alex sent out Magby, Gena sent out Poochyena and Catherine sent out Smoochem. "Let the battle commence!" Said the referee. "Lava, use ember on the Metapod!" Alex said. "Poochy, use sand attack on the Metapod so it won't see Alex's attack coming!" Gena said. Poochyena nodded, it started creating a loud cloud of dust around Metapod, so Metapod couldn't see Magby's attack and took a direct hit.

Meanwhile Catherine had managed to make Beedrill fall asleep and had frozen Beautifly's wings together. "Now Smoochem use pound on Beautifly!" Smoochem nodded and smashed its fist into Beautifly. "Beautifly, use flamethrower to burn away the ice!" Soulder said. (Yes, I have checked and Beautifly can learn flamethrower) As the ice melted it glistened on Beautifly. "Uh, guys I could do with some help," Catherine said, Alex and Gena had fainted Metapod and had started on Beedrill but nodded and came to help. "Lava, use Pound," Alex called and Lava hit Beautifly, Beautifly could not do anything as it was still defrosting. Then they heard a buzzing and turned to see that Beedrill had woken up. "All right Beedrill! Use Twin-needle attack!" Soulder said in delight. "Oh no you don't, Poochy, use Tackle," called Gena. "Lava use Ember on Beedrill," Alex said. Poochyena slammed into the Beedrill and got out of the way as Beedrill was hit by Ember. It fell to the ground and didn't get up.

"No, Beedrill!" Soulder said as she now had only one Pokemon left. But Beedrill had caused enough of a delay to let Beautifly finish defrosting. "Ok, Beautifly, use absorb on Poochyena," Beautifly flew down and began draining Poochyena of its energy. "No, Poochy," cried Gena, but she couldn't do anything, Poochyena fainted. "Looks like its only me and you Catherine," Alex said. Catherine nodded.

"Ok Smoochem, use ice punch on Beautifly," Catherine said. Smoochem's fist began to glow and it whacked Beautifly hard. Magby watched this and noticed its hand glowing. "Ok Lava, use fire punch," Alex said, delighted that Magby had learned a cool attack. After both punches hit Beautifly could take no more, it fainted. "All right, I confer upon you each this badge as a sign of defeating me," Soulder said, and they all received the Boulder badge.

"Thanks for the fight," said Alex, it was now much later and they were now ready to head to Cerulean city. "Your welcome," said Soulder, smiling. "Bye!" They all called as they ran on their way. What they didn't know was that a member of team TRATMATA(stands for Team Rocket And Team Magma and Team Aqua) was silently following them and had plans for their baby Pokemon.

OK, How was that? And to answer reistar's question, I'll think about it, you may become their rival. Oh and from now on whenever they get a badge I will put an I at the bottom of the summary.
