Chapter 8 - Twaddle Gym
We see our heroes approach the Twaddle
Gym, after a night sleeping at the
Pokémon Center. We see
Stephen pushing on another door that says pull.
(Recurring, but
expected)
"DOOR STUPID AM NO OPEN!" Stephen pouted childishly
and folded his arms.
"HUMPH!" He said. Aloof sighed, causing
Psyduck to pop out of his Pokeball and
attempt an unfunny
joke.
"PSY-AYE-AYE!" It said. (Also recurring but expected.)
Aloof sighed and opened
the door.
"OH! IT ARE HANDICAP DOOR!
THAT WHY IS NO OPENED BEFORE!" The gym was a
beautiful sight.
There was a trainer box on each side of the gym, and the gym
was a
giant pool. The roof opened when a battle began. There was a huge
island
in the middle of the pool. Squirtle put Stephen to sleep
with Abra, who
teleported him and Goldeen to the Pokémon
center so they wouldn't 'die' again. A
trainer walked in to
the trainer box and said,
"I am the Twaddle gym leader, Clap
Trap. Do you wish to battle me?"
"Yes, answered Squirtle threw
his Stephen suit.
"I'm no pushover. Full Pokémon battle
no time limit. Shall we begin?"
"We shall." Exciting music
played, and the gym roof opened.
"Go Blastoise!"
"Go
Bulbasaur!" Blastoise appeared in the water, and Bulbasaur appeared
on the
island.
"Blastoise, Rain Dance!"
"Counter that
with Sunny Day!" The roof opened up, and it rained, and
Bulbasaur
absorbed the water.
"Bulbaaa..." It purred
happily. The rain stopped and the sun shined brightly.
"Rapid
Solar Beam, Bulbasaur!" yelled Squirtle.
"Odby, use your
Blizzard," said Clap Trap.
"What kind of a name is Odby?"
"A
mere kid like you would not know!"
"Mere kid! Mergel
Smeargle!" Squirtle argued. While they were talking,
Bulbasaur
had knocked out Blastoise, and used recover twice and was fully
healed
from Blizzard.
"Arghh! I hate myself! Go Typhlosion
and use Fire Blast!" Bulbasaur was knocked
out by Clap Trap's
wrath. Squirtle sent out Gyarados.
"Typhlosion, Sunny
Day!"
"Gyarados, rain dance." Typhlosion stupidly used sunny
day, even though it was
already in place. It began to rain.
Typhlosion shot a Fire Spin at Gyarados, but
fast as lightning it
dodged the fire. Gyarados dove under water, and Typhlosion
kept
firing attacks at it until all of its PP had run out. Gyarados rose
from the
water, and swirled around the island fast. Typhlosion
tried to see where it was
going, but it got dizzy and fell down. A
dragon rage shot through the middle of
the island, hitting
Typhlosion. Gyarados fired a Hydro Pump at the helpless
Typhlosion
that was caught in the hurricane and Typhlosion fainted.
"Pokeball, go!" Clap thrust a Pokeball, and it stopped in mid-air. A shiny Pidgeot appeared. It shined goldenly, and it was very beautiful.
"Pidge, you know what to do," said Clap. The shining gold bird Pokémon flew up above the roof of the gym, and disappeared behind a cloud. Gyarados looked around, confused. By the way that Pidgeot moved, Squirtle could tell that it would use a Sky Attack soon. He knew this from reading 'The studies of activities of bird Pokémon: an economical crisis of BAS, BAH receive in paycheck'.
"Gyarados, use Hyper Beam when Pidgeot is close to you. It's about to use Sky Attack so watch that cloud up there!" Squirtle pointed to the cloud Pidgeot had flown behind. Gyarados nodded his head than stared up at the cloud. The Pidgeot flew down towards Gyarados, beak shining, but sharp. Gyarados fired the Hyper Beam when Pidgeot was inches away from Gyarados. The amazing Pidgeot used its massive speed in order to try to fly through the massive Hyper Beam, and its strong beak pushed against it. The Hyper Beam pushed harder and harder, but Pidgeot flapped its wings one more time and it went straight through the Hyper Beam! Pidgeot hit Gyarados, and the poor defenseless Gyarados took major damage. Pidgeot flew back into the sky for another aerial attack, but flying through the Hyper Beam caused it to take be worn out.
"Gyarados, just stand there!" Squirtle ordered. The Pidgeot came hurtling out of the sky, faster than a speeding bullet. "Gyarados, Wrap around it quickly!" Pidgeot flew down to Gyarados. Gyarados jumped out of the water, sparkly drops splattering off his body. It stretched its long body out, aiming the middle of it towards the Pidgeot. Gyarados wrapped itself around Pidgeot after Pidgeot had crashed into Gyarados' body. Pidgeot began to peck on Gyarados so it could break free from Gyarados' grip. Gyarados held on hard, until it had one-hp left. Gyarados seemed to be doomed, but Squirtle's plan was working. Squirtle closed his eyes and whispered,
"Gyarados, Explosion." The Gyarados quickly nodded, and it turned completely white. The whiteness spread everywhere, and the huge Explosion... well, exploded. After the smoke cleared, Gyarados lay floating in the water like Pidgeot was. It was a double knock out, causing Aloof to cheer.
"Alakazam, go," Clap said. He kneeled down and rolled a Pokeball into the water. Plook! It made a small noise as it hit the water.
"Pidgeot, I choose you!" It was Squirtle's turn to use the amazing bird Pokémon. Squirtle's Pokeball hovered over the water, and Pidgeot flew out of the Pokeball, which returned to Squirtle's hands. Meanwhile, Aloof was watching Alakazam. The Pokeball had returned to Clap's hands, and the Alakazam was somewhere underwater.
"Pidgeot, Fly up high where Alakazam can't see you!"
Clap laughed. "Bad mistake little kid. Alakazam sees everything. He is Psychic. He is reading my mind as of what attacks to use as I speak." All of the water in the battlefield began to shake. The water gathered all into one place, and the water began to go up through the roof. Alakazam was in an empty pool, manipulating the water. It moved its spoons and the water moved with it, towards Pidgeot.
"Pidgeot, Sky Attack now!" The Pidgeot flew down straight through the water that acted like a barrier. Pidgeot slowed down, but made it through. When it came out, the water had slowed it down so much that Alakazam had time to throw Pidgeot out of the way with his Psychic powers.
"Pidgeot, Light Screen!" Alakazam moved his spoon and the water rushed down towards Pidgeot. The light screen shined as it held back the force of the water.
"Pidgeot, Mirror Move!" all of a sudden, the water moved away from Pidgeot and towards Alakazam.
"Ala?" Alakazam looked at Clap, obviously awaiting orders. The water rushed toward Alakazam, and because Alakazam did not know what to do, it took the hit full blast. Pidgeot wasted no time in performing another Sky Attack, and then a final Wing Attack for the knockout. Squirtle wondered aloud,
"I wonder why Alakazam did not attack?"
"Alakazam must have been used to reading Clap Trap's mind for orders, but Clap was thinking about something else," The Pokedex answered.
"Let's see," Aloof said, and she let Abra out. She asked it what Clap was thinking about.
"Abra, Abra!"
"That Officer Jenny sure is beautiful!" Pokedex translated. Aloof and company fell down on the floor like in the anime. Squirtle stood back up.
"What Pokémon will you use next, oh Clap Trap?" he asked.
"You shall see," answered he. He threw a Pokeball into the air, and out came...
"Who's that Pokémon?" gastly shape

Mini-Movie
Akira had a sweatdrop as he complained, "But I don't want a Magikarp!" He knew he had to find Psyduck, but he did not know where. He got on his bicycle and was about to ride off when he saw a finger pointing behind a corner. He heard a voice whisper,
"Come here boy, if you want in!" Akira ran around the corner, but the only thing left was a hood similar to the hooded man's hood. Magikarp popped out of its Pokeball and began flopping around. It flopped onto the hood as if it had recognized it.
"Magikarp, magikarp," it said.
"Hmmm..." wondered Akira. "I wonder." He walked closer to the flopping Magikarp.
"Magikarp, Magikarp," it said.
"What?" He walked even closer to the hood.
"MAGIKARP, MAGIKARP!" Magikarp seemed to be trying to tell Akira something.
"MAGIKARP!!!!" It screamed. Akira returned Magikarp to its Pokeball, and picked up the hood. He walked to where the hood used to be. Magikarp popped out again, and at the same time Magikarp karped another karp, the ground beneath Akira broke. He fell, deep into the blackness of a pit.
"Psy, duck, psy, duck, psy? Psy-AYE-AYE!" Psyduck walked into the hole by accident. Magikarp evolved into Gyarados, and went off to find a trainer, because it wanted to be trained. Later, it fell into the hands of Aloof, but that does come into this mini-movie. You see, this Gyarados was a smart Gyarados, and it knew the hooded figure meant well, except it was too weird for a young person like Akira to be exposed too, Akira I was /I only 12. He had tried to warn Akira, but it was too late. He would have to face the hooded figure's wrath.
Akira landed on a trampoline, and bounced back up with Psyduck.
"Psyduck! There you are! I've been looking all over for you!"
"Psy-AYE-AYE!" Psyduck answered. Akira was so happy; he did not notice an Arcanine that walked in. It carried a hooded cloak in its mouth, and he dropped the cloak on the ground. The cloak morphed into Ditto, and Akira stopped bouncing, but Psyduck continued.
"You're the hooded figure! Ditto?!?" asked Akira.
"Psy-AYE-AYE!!" Psyduck continued bouncing up and down, right in Akira's face. The Arcanine did not look happy. It started firing Flamethrowers at Akira, but Psyduck kept accidentally using Confusion to move them away. Arcanine stopped firing, and closed his eyes. Ditto morphed into a hood again, this time it was big enough for Arcanine, who put it on. Strange music began to play, and for a moment, all was silent besides the music and Psyduck.
"PSY-AYE-AYE!!" Another figure stepped in from a nearby door. It/he/she had a suit on with a hood as if they were Mickey Mouse ears but much smaller. The black suit was pants and a shirt all in one, and it covered everything but the figure's face. The strange music continued to play. A question mark appeared out of nowhere and conked Akira on the head knocking him out. Arcanine yelled out,
"It is my duty to you, master, to return these stolen Pokémon to Professor Bark. I know how you were friends with him, oh master. As long as this kid doesn't get in our way then I'm sure that..." The strange figure cut him off.
"Silence, Arcanine. This kid is just trying to help. I knocked him out so he would not remember me, so he could not tell anyone about me. Just get him out of here, and we'll work separately, he will rescue half, as I will."

"It's Koffing!" A Koffing appears in Gastly's shape
"...Nidoran female!" There was a murmur in the crowd. Aloof heard another person in the stands talking to another person I the stands about how strong Clap's Nidoran was. Squirtle knew that Nidoran was strong just by the way it looked.
"Nido!" It yelled, horn shining. "Nidoran! Fe, fe, male, male!" Aloof fell down like people do in the anime again.
"Nidoran, Dig!"
"Pidgeot, Fly!"
"Oh, no," cried Clap. Nidoran dug back up, and looked around.
"Ni?" Pidgeot came hurtling out of the sky, and hit Nidoran full blast. "Ni!!!!!" Nidoran stood back up though, and did not despair.
"Nidoran, use mimic! Stephen, I got that trick from you when I saw you on TV, and now I shall use it against you!" Nidoran began to fly, high in the sky.
"Pidgeot, Hyper Beam!" Pidgeot fired a Hyper Beam at Nidoran, who could not fly very fast from Mimic, and the hyperactive beam knocked it out.
"I have one last Pokémon, but I know I will win. For my last Pokémon is my best. It is Togepi!" He threw out Togepi's Pokeball; unfortunately, it rolled into the water. Togepi did not know how to swim, so it drowned. Squirtle had won the match! The crowd (Aloof and two people) went wild. No one had ever defeated Togepi before! News reporters ran in and took pictures of Squirtle.
"Congratulations, kid. You won the Gibberish Badge. Squirtle was so excited, it was excited. After Aloof and Squirtle retrieved their Pokémon and Stephen from the Poke Center, They continued on their way, with two more badges until the Pokémon League at Indigo. Stephen was very happy about "his" accomplishment, and wondered what this section of this sentence meant.
"I IS ALMOST BEING THERE TO POKÉMON ADVENTURE WHAT?"
"YEAH!" Goldeen answered.
"IT ARE SURE FUN TO TRAVEL AN EARNED BADGE YEAH?"
"YEAH!" Goldeen answered. I can't end the chapter here, can I?
"YEAH!" Goldeen answered.
