Chapter 7

The new companion and the Cascadebadge

James walked out of the local pokemon centre wanting to do some training with Bolt before his gym battle the next day he found the park area where trainers would go to battle and saw a battle in progress so he walked up and watched from the sidelines. The two battle was a girl and a boy the girl had brown hair with brown eyes with a slight tint of red which interested James then he looked over at the other trainer and gasped in shock, it was Steven the snotty kid from Pallet the two pokemon on the field were wartortle the evolved form of Steven's squirtle and a diglett on reaction James pulled out his pokedex and pointed it first at the wartortle

Wartortle

Type: Water

Height: 3'3"

Weight: 50lbs

Its tail is large and covered in a rich thick fur. The tail becomes increasingly deeper in colour as the wartortle ages. The scratches on the shell are evidence of the pokemons toughness as a battler.

Then James pointed the device at the diglett

Diglett

Type: Ground

Height: 0'8"

Weight: 2lbs

Diglett are raised on most farms. The reason is simple-whenever this pokemon burrows, the soil is left perfectly tilted for growing crops. This soil is made ideal for growing delicious vegetables.

James p.o.v.

Oh man that girl will lose for sure water is super effective against ground pokemon there is no way she will beat Steven.

Normal p.o.v.

As James thought on what he thought came true as he predicted the diglett had tried digging underground but wartortle launched a water gun down the hole where diglett was bringing it back to the service unconscious.

"Humph child's play girly you should get something a lot stronger than that thing if you want to challenge this city's gym leader as they are expert water pokemon trainers" Steven said with a cruel smirk on his face he then suddenly piped up "is their know worthy trainer out their who can beat me".

James had seen enough he was sick of this cocky gits attitude so he jumped out shouting "why don't you try me punk or are you chicken".

Steven turned to face his challenger when he suddenly recognized him "so the orphan boy has come to challenge me has he well this will be fun lets say a one on one pokemon battle is that alright with you" he smirked.

James just glared pulling Bolts pokeball to the ready he could feel the electric pokemon getting excited he glared at Steven the replied "fine by me Steve so why don't we just start got Bolt" the electric pokemon appeared ready for battle.

"Alright lets go geodude" Steven shouted throwing the ball out and appeared was a pokemon that looked like a boulder James whipped his pokedex out and pointed it at the pokemon.

Geodude

Type: Rock/ground

Height: 1'4"

Weight: 44lbs

When geodude sleeps deeply, it buries itself halfway into the ground. It will not awaken even if hiker's on it unwittingly. In the morning, this pokemon rolls down hills in search of food.

"So you think you can catch me out with a ground type because they are unaffected by electricity go bolt use Iron tail attack" James smirked with a chuckle, Bolt ran at the rock then jumped in the air where its tail glowed silver and with one slam directly in the centre of the rock pokemons head making it fly backwards.

Steven looked stunned then replied "alright geodude show him the mega punch attack" the rock types fist started to glow and he swung at Bolt but the electric type had already vanished all the people looked up while James smirked.

He suddenly ordered "Bolt muster all your power in one final attack thunderbolt directly in the crack you made" the pokemon took in all of its energy and launched the most powerful thunderbolt ever seen knocking the rock type out.

"Damn you James I'll be back for revenge you can count on it" Steven walked of with a much bigger chip in his shoulder. James started to walk back to the pokemon centre when he bumped into the girl who had battled Steven earlier "wow your amazing I wish I had pokemon like yours" she said with tears in her eyes.

James suddenly took her in his arms and said "your diglett is powerful but you need to learn when to execute attacks and make combos with them like my iron tail thunderbolt I knew Bolt didn't stand a chance unless I could hit that geodude with a direct hit".

They both walked into the pokemon centre and the young girl introduced herself, her name was Rebecca and she had only started too.

Will Rebecca become a powerful ally for James and what surprises wait at his next gym battle R&R
