First order of business: Thank you Metal Dragon1 for reviewing my story! *winks* keep reading it; I think you'll be happy soon. Also thank you Shadow67 for also reading my story and leaving a review!
Now, before I'm bombarded with reviews, I know that the Eevee sisters' names are not the ones I have in this fic. I also know that there are 5, not 6. However, that didn't work with the fact, and I couldn't find all their names anyway, so I changed a few things. I hope nobody is offended or angry that I did. *smiles* if you over look that fact, I think everyone is gonna really like this chapter. Or at least, I hope you do. A lot happens.

Chapter 15
Matt's Journey
Matt, Eevee, Michelle, and Larvitar just arrived at Ecruteak city.
"Do you know anything about the gym leader here?" Michelle asked as they walked into the city.
Matt smiled. "I know his name is Morty and he trains ghost pokemon" Matt replied. Suddenly, Eevee's ears perked up and he looked over at one of the buildings.
"What's wrong Eevee?" Matt asked looking down at him.
"Look" Michelle said pointing to a girl that looked about 15, standing outside the building. She had brown hair tied into two pony tails on either side of her head, and light blue eyes. She was wearing a lavender t-shirt and blue jeans.
"Come all Pokemon Trainers!" the girl shouted, "For one day only, the Kimono Sisters, are accepting challengers! Challenge them to a team battle, and win Element Stones if you defeat us!" Matt and Michelle looked at each other.
"This might be interesting to do" Matt commented. Michelle looked thoughtful.
"I would like to try" Michelle commented, "Larvitar and I could use a warm up, right Larvitar?" she asked him grinning.
"Vitar" Larvitar replied, nodding.
"What do ya say Eevee?" Matt asked.
"Ve!" Eevee said excitedly.
"Just one thing though" Matt said as they walked over. He turned to Michelle, "What's a team battle?"
Michelle rolled her eyes and said "You shouldn't agree to do something until you know what it is! A team battle is when two trainers, each using one pokemon, battle together against two other trainers"
"Sounds like fun!" Matt said thoughtfully, "So it would be us, against them?"
"That's right" Michelle answered as they walked up to the building.
They walked up to the girl and Matt said, "We accept the challenge"
The girl clapped her hands in excitement, "Really!? That's great! I'm Eve, one of the 6 Kimono Sisters"
"I'm Matt" Matt replied. He gestured to Michelle, "This is Michelle"
"Hi" Michelle said giving a little wave.
"You two are going to battle together?" Eve asked eagerly.
"That's right!" Michelle answered, nodding.
"Eevee" "Larvitar" the pokemon said to get their trainers attention.
"Oh! This is Larvitar" Michelle said picking him up.
"Wow, he looks really strong" Eve said. Larvitar grinned smugly.
"This is Eevee" Matt said as Eevee jumped onto Matt's shoulder.
"Oh what a cutie!" Eve exclaimed petting Eevee. Eevee purred happily.
"Come and meet my sisters now" Eve said, leading them inside the building.
The inside of the building looked like a dinner theater. There was a stage, then a bunch of tables and chairs. In the back was a bar like place.
"this is where we perform." Eve told them. "our other ceremonies take place out back" On the stage where five ladies that looked between the ages of 18 and 22. Each had on a different color dress.
"Are these the next challengers Eve?" the oldest one asked. She had on a black and purple dress robe thing on.
"yes Amber. This is Matt," she pointed to Matt, "and Michelle" she nodded to Michelle.
"Guys" Eve said to Matt and Michelle, "these are my sisters, Amber" The lady they were talking to bowed
"Electra," the second oldest lady with a yellow and gold dress-robe bowed to them,
"Aurora," the girl that looked to be about 20 and in a light and dark blue dress smiled at them,
"Flicker," the red and orange robed lady grinned,
"and Esper" she said pointing to an 18year-old girl with a white and silver dress-robe. She winked at them.
"Let's go out back to battle" Eve suggested, "there is more room there"
Outside there was a field with some trees and a small pond.
"This is nice." Michelle said, admiring the view.
"Vi tar" Larvitar agreed.
Amber stepped forward and said, "You both will face two of us in three team battles. For each battle, you each can only use one pokemon."
"IF you win any of the battles" Electra continued, "You will get element stones of the appropriate element. Understand?" Matt and Michelle nodded to show they understood. Aurora and Flicker stepped up.
"We'll be the first challengers" Aurora said smiling kindly.
"If you beat us, you move on, if you don't…." Flicker trailed off and grinned wickedly.
"GO FLAREON!" Flicker called. "Flareon!" the Fire eevee shouted.
"Vaporeon go!" Aurora exclaimed. "Vaporeon!" the mermaid pokemon purred.
Matt looked at Michelle, "What do you think?" he asked her.
Michelle considered, while fingering a pokeball, "How about we use fire and water too?" she asked him with a grin.
Matt grinned back, "Alright, on one condition"
"What?" Michelle asked as she took out her pokeball.
"I get water" he said
"Alright, sure" Michelle replied. Then her eyes widened and realization struck. "Wait! The only water pokemon you have is-"
"Magikarp go!" Matt yelled.
"Karp karp karp!"
Michelle turned to Matt angrily, "What are you THINKING??" Matt opened his mouth to say something but hesitated at Michelle expression. She had little flames in her blue eyes, and if looks could kill….. Luckily, Aurora saved him,
"If you do not take out a pokemon Michelle, you forfeit the match" she said softly. Michelle glared at her, then sighed.
"Go! Charmander!" she yelled sending out the little fire lizard.
"Char char!" Charmander said happily. Eve stepped out to referee the battle.
"This will be a team battle" Eve declared, "If one of the team cannot battle, then that team loses" She brought down her hand, "begin!"
"Vaporeon"
"Flareon"
"TACKLE ATTACK!" Aurora and Flicker yelled at the same time. The Vaporeon slammed into Magikarp and Flareon hit Charmander hard.
"Charmander! Use Scratch!" Michelle shouted.
"Char char!" Charmander exclaimed and started to try and scratch Flareon.
"Magikarp, tackle!" Matt yelled.
"Karp!" Magikarp agreed and swam toward Vaporeon.
Vaporeon easily dodged Magikarp and swatted him with her tail. Flareon was running in circles around poor Charmander. Flareon would dart in, tackle Charmander, and then jump away when the lizard tried to scratch him. Vaporeon was leading Magikarp in a watery chase, disappearing then ending up behind the fish to bite it. Charmander and Magikarp were getting beaten. Badly. Michelle yelled when Charmander went down and Matt shouted when Magikarp floated in the top in defeat.
"Come on Charmander! You can do it! PLEASE try to get up!" Michelle called to Charmander. Charmander lifted his head to look at the trainer that he would do anything for.
"Magikarp! Come on buddy, you're tougher than this! You can keep going!" Matt yelled to Magikarp. Magikarp opened his eyes to look at the trainer who had been so kind to him over the past days. Magikarp thought about how no other trainer would catch him because of how weak they thought he was. But Matt had caught him. Matt believed in him like no one else would…. Charmander looked at his trainer and thought about all the battles he had won for her. She was so kind to him. He loved her with all his heart. He wanted to win this for her. Needed to win this for her. Charmander and Magikarp looked at each other. Then they both started to glow white.
Eve stepped forward. She was about to declare the match over when a gasp from Matt and Michelle made her look at the pokemon. They were glowing white!
"They're….they're…" Michelle whispered her hand to her mouth.
"They're EVOLVING!" Matt shouted happily.
"RRRRAAAAAA" Gyarados roared stretching to his full length.
"CHAAAARR!" Charmeleon roared in answer, sending a breath of flame into the air. Gyarados and Chameleon both struck a battle pose back to back. Vaporeon and Flareon backed up a step with sweatdrops as Gyarados and Chameleon grinned evilly at them. Matt and Michelle looked at each other in awe, then Michelle grinned a grin very much like Chameleon's.
"Shall we show these people how's it's done?" Michelle asked Matt. Mat nodded smiling.
"Gyarados, Dragon Rage!"
"Chameleon, Flame Thrower!" The teens yelled. Chameleon and Gyarados powered up and fired their attacks at Vaporeon and Flareon. The Eons were caught of guard, and couldn't avoid the on coming attacks.
"Vaporeon, come on!" Aurora told her pokemon, "use Water Gun on Charmeleon!" Vaporeon powered up and spewed out a water gun toward Charmeleon.
"Gyarados! Block it!" Matt shouted to his new evolved pokemon. Gyarados swung his tail up, the water splashing off it harmlessly.
"Now use Slash attack Charmelon!"
"Flareon, use Fire Spin!" Flareon shot a circle of Flame around Gyarados and Charmeleon. Charmeleon charged through and started to slash and scratch the surprised Flareon.
"Gyarados, use Thrash" Matt yelled to his pokemon, hoping to end the battle. Gyarados roared and charged both Eons. Charmeleon leaped out of the way as Gyarados whipped back and forth, slamming into Flareon and Vaporeon in reckless fury. It was just too much for them and they fainted.
"You did very well" Flicker said to them.
Aurora nodded in agreement, "Your pokemon evolved because they loved you. You show great kindness to your pokemon." Matt smiled as reached up to pat Gyarados. Gyarados leaned down into his hand.
"Thanks" he replied. Chameleon jumped into Michelle's arms as she knelt down for him. Eve ran up to them, handing Matt a Water and Fire Stone.
"As promised, here are the stones" Eve said. Matt tossed the stones to Michelle, who put the stones into her backpack.
"Now who do we battle?" Michelle asked after Matt and Michelle recalled their pokemon.
"Vi tar?" Larvitar echoed.
Esper and Eve grinned, "Now it's our turn!" They said. Eevee jumped onto Matt's shoulder as he fingered his pokaballs.
"Espeon go!" Esper shouted,
"Eevee, I choose you!" an Eevee jumped out of Eve's pokeball.
"GO Gastly!" Matt called out as he threw his pokemon.
"I choose you, Natu!" Michelle yelled.
"Gaaaaaastly!"
"Tuu!"
He knew what was happing, but he didn't know how to stop it. How ironic, that the very ones who the humans turned to for hope, would be the ones that would destroy them. As he flew from his haven, he looked back. They were following him, the only one left. The only one that she couldn't capture. If only he knew were the other ones were. The Dark Ones. However, even he didn't know if the Dark Ones could help, for he didn't know the whole story. The only thing he knew for certain, was that if he didn't stop them, the one that accepted him would be gone, and the world would be at war. From far away, a bird screeched, and a dog howled in answer.
{Robin shook with a start as if something had stung her head. Putting her hand to her forehead, she looked down at the red and black pokeballs hanging in her belt.}
"Yes we did it!" Matt shouted as he high-fived Michelle.
"Gaaastly! "tuuu!" their pokemon celebrated. Eve and Esper recalled their pokemon.
"That was well done" Esper said with a lopsided smile.
Eve winked as she gave Michelle a Sun and Ever Stone, "but now you gota fight our strongest sisters" Matt and Michelle recalled Gastly and Natu as Amber and Electra stepped forward and bowed. Matt and Michelle hastily bowed in return.
"Umbreon"
"Jolteon"
"GO!" the sisters shouted.
"Um!" "Jolt!" their pokemon went into a battle stance. Michelle chewed her lower lip thoughtfully.
"These pokemon are at a really high level" she told Matt, turning to him.
Matt smiled at her. " then I guess we need to use OUR strongest Pokemon, ready Eevee?" Eevee jumped off his shoulder to land lightly besides Larvitar.
"Ve!" he said excitedly.
"Larvitar? Wanna battle?" Michelle asked her pokemon. Larvitar nodded and pumped his fist.
"Tar!"
"Alright!" Matt shouted. "Let's battle!"
"Use double tackle!" the sisters shouted at their pokemon. Umbreon and Jolteon rushed at Eevee and Larvitar.
"Larvitar brace yourself!" Michelle yelled and Larvitar bent its knees a little.
"Eevee use agility!" Eevee took off around the field.
"Use pursuit Umbreon!" Amber told her dark pokemon.
"Tackle Larvitar" Electra told her pokemon. Umbreon chased down Eevee, and slowly caught up. Jolteon ran full force at Larvitar.
"Now!" Michelle shouted. Just as Jolteon leaped to hit Larvitar, the little pokemon grabbed Jolteon's spines and fell onto his back, helping the surprised thunder dog over himself, then throwing Jolteon as Larvitar rolled back up. Out of pure luck, Jolteon was hurled straight into Umbreon, just as it was about to catch up with Eevee.
"Eevee, quick use Take Down!"
With lighting speed, Eevee turned and ran into both Umbreon and Jolteon, then jumped back besides Larvitar.
"Come on get up!" The sisters shouted to their pokemon. Both shook themselves then stood.
"Alright! Use Thunder Jolteon!"
"Umbreon, use your Night Shade attack"
"on!" the eons grunted as a yellow and black force came out and swirled to meet, going straight toward Larvitar and Eevee.
"Eevee, get out of there" Matt shouted, and Eevee sprinted away. Michelle knew that Larvitar wasn't fast enough to dodge the attack, so she made a quick decision.
"Larvitar use bide!" Larvitar crouched just as both attacks hit him full force. Since Larvitar was a ground pokemon, normally, the thunder attack wouldn't hurt him. But combined with the Night Shade it could be deadly.
"Larvitar can't keep this up!" Michelle whispered urgently to Matt as Larvitar continued to take the blows.
Matt nodded. "Eevee, we need to do something quick! We've got to take care of Umbreon!"
Eevee nodded, and turned back to help his friend. Both Electra and Amber were to busy cheering their pokemon on to notice Eevee run up behind Larvitar. With a kick of his hind legs, he leaped over the rock pokemon, and landed straight onto Umbreon's head. The dark pokemon landed face first into the dirt. Umbreon jumped up and growled in fury. Eevee whipped his tail at in a taunt, and Umbreon then took off in pursuit again.
"Umbreon, No!" Amber shouted in anguish, but it was too late. Umbreon was to caught up in his haste to catch Eevee and didn't notice the tree looming up. Eevee neatly dodged the tree, but Umbreon wasn't quick enough and hit it head on. The pokemon slumped against it, fainted. Larvitar, the nightshade gone, was now moving slowly toward Jolteon, his little fists clenched and an evil look in his eye.
"Jolteon, increase the power!" Electra shouted franticly. Jolteon shoved every last bit of energy into his thunder attack, but Larvitar kept coming.
"Toss him!" Michelle shouted excitedly. Larvitar, using the power he had gained from the bide attack, picked up Jolteon and hurled him into a rock, the impact making the electric dog faint. Matt picked up Eevee as Michelle hugged Larvitar in happiness and excitement. The oldest sisters sighed and recalled their pokemon. Then they bowed again.
"You are truly worthy of these stones" Amber told them as she handed the Moonstone to Matt.
"We hope to meet again someday" Electra added as she gave them the Thunderstone. Matt and Michelle bowed in reply, then Matt casually put the stones into his backpack.
"I have one question though" Electra asked tentatively before Matt and Michelle could leave.
"How could Larvitar withstand my Jolteon's thunder attack?"
Michelle grinned and Larvitar looked smug. "He's a ground pokemon, electric attacks don't work against them"
"Then why did Pikachu defeat Brock's Onix?" Esper muttered to herself.
"What?" Matt asked, frowning.
"Oh! Uh nothing!" Esper exclaimed in false cheerfulness. "Well! Bye now!" the sisters waved at Matt and Michelle. Matt shrugged and Michelle shook her head as they left the arena.
Does it bother anyone else that Pikachu can use thunder attacks on ground pokemon, and actually knock them out? I know the sprinkler system was on, and that just makes me all the more disgruntled! He "won" the match because of the fire extinguishers and still took the badge! He's also used thunder attacks on other ground pokemon! I know he has! That just bothers me! *walks around the room grumbling*
Please review this chapter, I worked really hard on it, and it would mean so much to me if you did. *big puppy eyes*
