Authors note: I know that are those who wish I did the other gyms but
thirty badges is a lot. I will show Ash in more Gym battles like in this
chapter, but they will be in new gyms that he has never battled in before.
I will be moving soon so it will be a long time until the next update.
Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon.
Chapter eight: Honey "Moon"
They were both packed and ready for the trip.
"I still can't believe that we're going to a lakeside resort on the moon." Misty said.
"Apollo Lake is supposed to be one of the most romantic vacation spots." Ash said.
"Are your sure you two don't mind us tagging along?" Pikachu asked.
"I don't see why you or any of the Pokemon can't come with on vacation, just remember to give me and Misty our alone time." Ash said.
"Come on Ash if we don't hurry we'll miss our flight." Misty said.
After the ship had launched Misty and Ash stared out in wonder at the earth.
"It's so beautiful." Misty said.
"When I was little I either wanted to be the first trainer in space. Guess it's a little late for that now huh?" Ash said.
Just then the intercom sounded. "Ladies and Gentlemen we will be arriving in Tycho City space port in two hours, until then just sit back and enjoy the ride."
"And to think it used to take three days to get to the moon." Ash said. "What are you reading there sweetie?"
"Oh, it's about how the moon was colonized and then terraformed. It says here that soon after that there was a great migration of Clefairy to the moon. Now they're as common there as Ratatta are on earth." Misty said.
"I have to remember to catch you one while we're there." He then gave Misty a kiss on the cheek.
After they landed they took a tram line to Apollo Lake. It was about the size of Lake Tahoe.
"Oh, hello there my name is Mint. I'm the manager of this hotel; do you two have a reservation?" She had blue eyes and long blonde hair.
"Yes, it's under Ketchum." Ash said. They of course had the honeymoon suite.
"There is so much we can do here. Waterskiing, Fishing, or just lying on the beach." Ash said.
"Well lets get our room and unpack first alright darling?" Misty said.
The next few days were filled with both fun and romantic activities until at the hotel restaurant
"Well you must have been having a blast. I couldn't help but notice but you two are trainers right?" Mint said.
"Yes" Misty answered.
"Well my husband is the gym leader in this town so I was wondering if you might want to challenge him."
"That sounds great!" Ash said.
"But Ash we're on vacation! This trip is about us not the tournament." Misty said.
"Mist we may not be back here again I would really like to get that badge."
"You have a one track mind you know that? The moment you hear about a gym you want to go right away! You care more about getting badges then spending time with your wife!" Misty shouted.
"That is not true! I have bent over backwards to give you a nice trip and this is the thanks I get?" Ash said after he banged his fist on the table.
"Well if that's the way you feel then don't expect a repeat of last night's action then!" Misty then stormed off.
Later Misty was crying into her pillow. She then heard a chime at the door. "Come in?" she said with a sniff. It was Mint.
"I sorry that what I said start that argument." Mint said.
"No it's not your fault, Ash and me were always arguing before we got married but this felt different. I thought we would stop fighting all the time when we got married, but now we're fighting worse then ever."
"Now that's a myth. A marriage is too intimate a relationship for you not to argue. Just talk about how you feel and listen to how he feels, that's all you can do."
"Thanks Mint."
"Hey I just got experience that all."
At that time Ash walked into the room.
"Well I better get going." Mint said as she left.
"Misty, I'm sorry, your right this trip should be about us." Ash said. He then handed a Pokeball to Misty. "I said I'd catch a Clefairy for you on this trip."
"Ash you're so sweet. But we have to face it; we are both stubborn and hardheaded." Misty said.
"Well we just have to do the best we can about that."
"Ash I know you'd win that match. Let's go tomorrow to the gym. I will always cheer you on."
So the very next day they went to the Apollo Town Gym. From what they heard from Mint the Gym Leader Jed specialty was Dark Types. But there was one thing that Mint neglected to mention.
"Daddy, Daddy, that man has a tail!" Togepi said.
Yes. Jed looked human except for his cat like tail. He had jet black hair.
"I guess she never seen a fellpool before. My name's Jed."
"So you must be the Gym leader then." Ash said.
"Yes, I came to this star system to better my skills as a trainer and fell in love with a human woman."
"I can't wait to battle an alien Pokemon!"
"Well that might depend."
"On what?" Misty asked.
"Gym rules say that out of ten Pokemon five must be chosen at random. We won't know what Pokemon we'll use until the battle starts. It's to test trainers adaptability." Jed said.
"How do I choose them at random?" Ash asked.
Jed pointed to a machine. "Just put your Pokeballs in there. The five on the right will be the ones you'll battle with. Don't use the ones that come out of the left."
Ash recalled Pikachu to his ball and put all his Pokeballs in the machine. It made a whirling sound and spit the balls out of two slots.
"Good. Now it's my turn." Jed put his in and took his five.
"Now let's get this battle on!"
Jed released his first Pokemon.
"Yes, Virimite!" It looked like a giant black germ with a purple eye in its nucleus.
[Virimite the germ Pokemon. Types Dark/Poison. This Pokemon is native to another planet. It is actually a swarm of billions of germs.]
Ash's first Pokemon was Charmander.
"Charmander Flamethrower!"
"Virimite, use Bond!"
With Bond Virimite stuck to Charmander and drained its energy.
"Charmander use Slash!"
Virimite was down.
"Ok Next up." Jed said. It was a Mightyenea. "Use Tackle!"
Charmander took a lot of damage from the Bond attack before so he went down.
"Ok, let's try this one." Ash said. Totodile came out." Watergun!"
"Mightyenea Bite attack!"
"Totodile another Watergun."
"Mightyenea Toxic!"
"Hydropump!"
Even though Totodile was poisoned Mightyenea went down. Jed's next Pokemon was a Sneasel. It mostly dodged the attacks of Totodile which fainted after the poison took its toll.
"Now let's try this one." Ash said. It was Squirtle.
"Sneasel, Faint attack."
"Squirtle Withdraw."
The Faint attack did little damage.
"Now Skull Bash!" Ash said. Sneasel fainted. Jed's forth Pokemon was Houndoom.
"A Fire type, no problem."
"Houndoom, Dark force, now!" It was a very powerful attack Squirtle was out.
"Come something good" Ash said. It was a centaur like Pokemon with yellow armor and a sword and shied in its hands. Only its blue eyes could be seen though its helmet. "Yes I knew Sirbright would come in handy in this battle.
"Mommy I never seen him before." Togepi said.
"Me neither." Misty said.
[Sirbirght the knight Pokemon. Type: Light. This Pokemon uses its horse legs to get high speeds. It fights off all opponents with its sword.]
"I caught him just be fore we came here. I knew that Dark types were weak against Light types so I switched one of my Pokemon for him." Ash said. "Now Sirbright use Light sword attack!" The attack did a lot of damage.
"Houndoom give it a Dark force!" Jed said.
"Sirbright use Light screen!" Sirbright used its shield for the light screen. "Now give him a Double kick."
Houndoom was knocked out.
"Last chance. I must say that put up a good fight Ash. Now here we go!" It was a Tyranitar. "Great now use Dragonbreath!" Sir bright fainted. "Sorry Ash but it looks like I lucked out. Tyranitar is the best I got."
"It's not over yet." Ash said. His last Pokemon was Pikachu. "Pikachu use Thunderbolt!"
"Thunderbolt Strike!" Pikachu said.
"Tyranitar go for an Earthquake!"
A lot of damage was done to them both.
"Pikachu it's time for our secret weapon! Iron tail!"
"Iron Tail Slammer!" Tyranitar was out.
"I never knew that Pikachu could do that." Misty said.
"Just something that we picked up in Hoenn." Pikachu said.
"You certainly adaptable trainer Ash for you victory here today I give you an Eclipse Badge." Jed said. It was mostly a black disc with a sliver crescent on the left side.
"Thanks Jed. But this badge is not great a prize as my wife." Ash said. All misty could do was blush.
