Chapter 11
Bill and the Dragonite
Ash, Brock, Misty, Pikachu, and Elaine are now walking towards the direction of Cerulean Cape. The Professor had asked Ash to get a Software and Hardware upgrade from Bill, who's been helping the Professor develop the Pokédex for commercial use.
(A Short Walk Later}
The group had arrived at the beach. Misty had already ran towards it, hoping to spot a Water Type to add to her team.
Ash and Brock shook their heads at the eagerness to catch a Pokémon that was being displayed in front of them.
"Aha!" Misty exclaimed.
Ash and Brock ran towards her curious to see what she found. It was...
"An Eevee!" They both exclaimed.
Ash pulled out his Pokédex and scanned the Eevee.
"Eevee, the Evolution Pokémon. An extremely rare Pokémon that may evolve in a number of different ways depending on stimuli. This Eevee is Female and has ability Adaptability. To see moves the Pokémon must be captured first."
Misty then battled the Eevee.
She sent out Staryu, ordering it to use Confuse Ray.
Staryu complied, glowing pink, before launching a ray of Psychic energy at Eevee. The attack landed successfully and Eevee was now confused. She hit herself a few times and combined with a Water Gun from Staryu, Eevee was unconscious. Misty threw a Premier Ball at Eevee, capturing her with little resistance.
"I caught an Eevee!" Misty squealed in absolute joy for her newest Pokémon.
"Hey Guys, Look." Ash pointed to a lighthouse sitting atop a small cliff by the beach. Brock checked the map and confirmed that it was the lighthouse they were looking for.
The group then headed towards the tall building stopping at a door, which had a few legendary Pokémon carved into it. the carving of which were off: Zapdos, Moltres, Articuno, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Suicune, Entie, Raikou, and Mew.
Mew's carving looked like their Gen 1 sprite.
(Mew Note: They got my proportions very wrong in the Mural, which I can understand but it's still wrong.)
Ash saw an intercom next to the door. He pressed the button, which rang the doorbell and a crash was heard from the other side of the door. the group winced at this.
The door then opened and revealed a Riolu. It said nothing, but gesture to come in. The group complied and went inside. Once inside the Riolu pointed at the unconscious man on the floor.
"You want us to carry him up to his bed?" Misty guessed, to which the Riolu nodded.
The group hauled the unconscious man's body up the lighthouse to a bed on one of the floors. Ash decided to use the Video Phone on the 1st floor to call the Professor.
After a few rings the Professor's face was on the screen.
"Ash, I take it you've made it to Bill's. Where is he? I'd like to talk to him about something." Oak asked Ash, who sweatdropped.
"You see Professor, Bill is kinda knocked out." Ash replied. The Professor also sweatdropped, knowing Bill's many faults.
"I guess I will have to wait until he wakes up. See you soon Ash." Oak promptly ended the call.
Ash stood up from the Video Phone and walked back up to pass the time with Pikachu and Elaine, Both of which were chatting with Riolu.
Brock went up to the group of Pokémon and asked Riolu if it was okay to use the ingredients Bill had in his fridge to cook some lunch, Riolu nodded in response.
Misty was over by the stairs petting her newly caught Eevee, who enjoyed the attention Misty was giving her.
{A Few Hours Later}
It was now about 3:30pm. Bill groaned as he got out of bed. He rubbed his eyes not really noticing the people in his room.
Bill walked down to the 1st floor and brewed some coffee. The group of humans and Pokémon just sweatdropped at his obliviousness to their presence.
Bill took a sip of his freshly brewed coffee, the heat of which burned his tongue, causing him to spit out his coffee. This earned another wince from the group.
After Bill drank a cold glass of water he finally noticed the group of human and Pokémon.
"Oh uh, I'm so sorry for making you wait." He then looked at Ash and asked. "Are you by chance Ash Ketchum?"
"Yeah that's me." Ash confirmed.
"Great, now can you give me your Pokédex so I can upgrade it for you." Bill put his hand out waiting for Ash to give him his Pokédex. Ash reached into his pocket and grabbed the Pokédex and handed it to Bill, who took it to a work table.
"This will be done in just a bit." Bill informed the group.
The group just went back to whatever conversation they were having prior to the event that is Bill.
{2 Hours Later}
Bill was now done with the upgrade. He called Ash down and presented the upgraded Pokédex. The overall design hadn't changed, as it was mostly just an internal hardware change and the new software.
Ash turned on the Pokédex.
The screen lit up with a Poké Ball logo, spinning around while the device was booting. Once the Pokédex finished it's boot cycle apps were visible on a new Home Screen that wasn't there prior to the upgrades. Ash selected the map icon, it displayed a map of where they currently are and the nearby Routes. It also showed points of interest on the map like Poké Centers and Nearby City, the city being Cerulean.
Ash then moved on to the Pc looking icon.
It displayed all the Pokémon on his party in sprite art, including the Legendaries on his party. The app also had another icon, when he pressed it it displayed small box of text, which read: This function will let you access the Pokémon currently staying in Oak Ranch at any time. Take note that it doesn't work in caves or vast underground tunnels. Ash clicked the 'next' button, displaying more text.
Use instructions: Select the Pokémon you want to be transferred. And do the same with the Pokémon you want to be retrieved.
Ash then clicked the 'okay' button next to the text box.
The screen displayed his currently in use Pokémon and his Pokémon that were currently in the Oak Ranch.
Ash had the sudden urge to say 'Science is so Amazing!' but shook his head and ignored it.
Ash thanked Bill for the upgrade, who in turn said, "Anytime".
{After an Early Dinner}
Bill had asked the group if they wanted to see something. He gestured to the top of his lighthouse. The group nodded, curious to what the scientist wanted to show them.
At the top of the Lighthouse there was a radar scanner and a what looked to be a speaker near the edge of the medium sized room.
Bill opened the laptop that was sitting on a desk near where the speaker was and played an audio file.
A soft melody played from the speaker, the melody was somewhat sad and had a feeling of longing to go beside it.
"So what do you think?" Bill asked. "A Beautiful song isn't it."
"It is." Misty answered.
"It sounds lonely." Ash answered.
"I got that too." Brock added.
"I know right. It's like It's i want a friend but can't have one." Bill agreed with the Rock Type trainer.
After the song stopped playing Riolu sensed a huge presence, the same one that he felt when Bill had gotten the song recorded.
Only this time it headed directly for them.
Riolu panicked fearing the worst. He quickly got the attention of Pikachu and Elaine, who asked Riolu what was wrong. Riolu stuttered out the situation to the two, who relayed it to Ash, who relayed it to everybody else.
The group, along with Bill, ran outside the Lighthouse as quickly as they could. Ash clutched his Pokéballs, Misty and Brock Mirroring his action. Riolu had taken a battle stance, Pikachu and Elaine following suit.
The Pokémon turned out to be a Dragonite 10 times the normal size of the Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon.
But instead of attacking the group, the Dragonite waved and nervously scratched the back of their neck.
{The Next Day}
"Last Night was certainly something, wasn't it?" Misty asked a rhetorical question.
"At least Dragonite and Bill are happy." Brock said, not really answering Misty's earlier question
Ash stayed silent, a solemn smile on his face. It was nice helping out Dragonite with the being lonely situation, even though the solution had already been found when the Dragon Type first appeared.
That being Bill be their friend.
The two agreed to it without objection.
And now it was off to wherever place this Journey will take them.
