Disclaimer: I don't own Poke'mon!

x636-Oh, sorry, I forgot that not everyone knows Reena from my first story. Reena has the ability to see the location of every legendary Poke'mon and can ask for help mentally if one's nearby. She can also understand what Poke'mon are saying but not directly in sentences like Ray can; she understands the basics of what a poke'mon is saying. Reena got these powers after being saved by Legendary Poke'mon about 50 times; the Poke'mon gave her the ability to see their location so she can help them out when they need her. This was passed onto Ray but as you read in the story, Ray can do everything Reena can except he's got a bonus of speaking to Poke'mon directly. Then there are his Poke'mon skills he got from both his parents.

Amy did a quick call to the Professor.

"Hi Professor Oak!" Amy greeted,

"Oh hello Amy," he greeted also.

"Hi, I was just checking to see how you were doing! I miss going to your lab so…yeah," was all Amy could say.

"You know Amy, you could try catching some more Poke'mon, I haven't received any from you yet and Ivan already has about 30 Poke'mon here," said Gary,

"WHAT?" Amy exclaimed,

"Well this is what happens if you don't try catching them all," shrugged Gary.

"Why that Ivan!" Amy growled,

"By the way Amy, how many badges do you have?" Gary asked,

"Three," Amy replied,

"Oh? Ivan has 4 when he last called," said Gary and Amy did an anime fall.

"How does he get ahead like that?" Amy mumbled.

After a little more talking, the conversation ended and they headed for the gym…but Rose caught a scent and followed it.

"Hey Rose, where are you going?" Amy asked but Rose didn't reply,

"Rose!" Amy called after her,

"Let's just follow her," said Isaac,

"Alright," said Amy,

"Pika Pi," Pikachu added.

Rose continued on until she reached a perfume shop and went in,

"What the? What's this place?" Amy asked looking at the store where Rose went into,

"A perfume shop judging on the…amazing scent," said Isaac a little softly.

"A perfume shop? Come on, I want to go to the gym; come on, Isaac, lets go get Rose," said Amy and looked at him but he wasn't where he was standing before,

"Isaac?" Amy looked around, and also noticed the light weight on her shoulder,

"Pikachu?"

Amy then saw Rose through the glass, then she spotted Isaac and Pikachu on his shoulder as well,

"WHAT? What are those two doing in there?" Amy asked herself.

"This is one of our most popular, it's called Rose Love," said a girl with Aqua hair and in her older teenage years who was the counter girl for this shop. She sprayed a little of the perfume on Rose's hand. Rose, Isaac, and Pikachu sniffed it,

"It smells so dreamy," said Rose,

"It's so smoothing," said Isaac,

"Pika," Pikachu agreed.

"We have one that's been popular for years, it's called Daffodil Dream," said the girl showing them another sample,

"Pika! Pika!" Pikachu wanted to smell it so the girl sprayed some on Pikachu's paw,

"It smells just like a garden," said Rose,

"It's so relaxing," said Isaac,

"Pika pi…"

The three seemed to have fallen under a spell after smelling the perfume.

"How much does this one cost?" Rose asked,

"Don't buy it Rose!" Amy exclaimed when she walked in,

"Perfume is a cheap rip off and they stink!" said Amy,

"Get out," Isaac grumbled,

"Amy! That was rude!" said Rose,

"Oh dear…" said the girl,

"I resent that statement!"

Everyone turned to see a woman in a beautiful, flowery kimono with a Bulbasaur next to her.

"Young lady, are you accusing that my perfumes are a rip off and not worth using?" the woman asked in a serious tone walking up to her,

"Um, no m'am, I just think that's the truth in all perfumes. I didn't mean to offend anybody though," said Amy trying to defend herself.

"Is that so?" Isaac asked,

"Well from what I've seen, they make people into zombies…like you, Isaac!" Amy exclaimed pointing at him,

"I'm not a zombie! The smell of the perfume just relaxes me a lot that's all! It smells good but I'm not planning on using it!" Isaac argues back as the two point at each other.

"If you don't like my products then you can leave," said the woman in a strict tone but before Amy could say anything, she was literally kicked out.

She got up,

"That's fine! I was just on my way to the Celadon City gym!" said shouted inside.

When she reached the gym:

"WHAT?" Amy exclaimed after not being allowed in,

"We're not letting anyone in that says that perfume stink are a cheap rip off!" said one the ladies guarding the entrance.

"Oh come on!" Amy whined,

"NO!"

Amy dragged herself back to the perfume shop and went in. No one was there except the counter girl and the Bulbasaur.

"Um…what do I have to do to get myself into the gym?" Amy asked in a pity way.

"Well, if it isn't the perfume hater? Well I can't really say how to get you into the gym but I'm guessing they won't let you in because some of our staff already informed the gym of your insults," said the girl,

"Sorry…" Amy moaned.

The girl shook her head and told Amy to take a seat,

"I'm Aura," she said,

"I'm Amy,"

"So why do you hate perfume again?" Aura asked,

"Um…I'm not sure actually, my dad used to tell me how they turn guys into zombies when I was little so I would never use them," said Amy and thought back in those days,

"Do you still believe him?" Aura asked,

"Well, I'm no sure...I never used perfume before and I'm not sure if my mom has any. But my dad whines all the time when my mom buys perfumes home so I guess I just took it off him," Amy shrugged and Aura laughed a bit,

"And you want to challenge the gym right? I think I can help you," said Aura,

"REALLY?" Amy jumped up with hopes in her eyes.

"But not today, most likely most will forget about you or not really care about what you said tomorrow," said Aura and picked up a small pot with a flower in it and handed it to Bulbasaur.

"Oh man!" Amy didn't like to wait for another day and slinked back into the chair.

Amy looked down,

"Is that your Bulbasaur?" Amy asked pointing at the female Bulbasaur arranging flowers and some perfume bottles with its vines.

"Huh? Oh, no! That's not any of ours! This Bulbasaur was given to us by a trainer that didn't want it anymore so we took her in. But she refuses to have another trainer so she's not any of ours," Aura answered.

"But…that's so cruel," said Amy and looked at Bulbasaur,

"Yes we know, but we respect the fact that the trainer left it here instead of on the streets or something," said Aura.

"Is Bulbasaur happy here?" Amy asked,

"I think so, but I think Bulbasaur should get out more, I think she needs another trainer," said Aura as she pats Bulbasaur.

"My dad has a Bulbasaur, they were really close," said Amy and pets Bulbasaur also.

"Say, why don't you help Bulbasaur arrange the flowers and perfume? I'll hand the new ones to put on the shelves," said Aura reaching for a box,

"Uh sure," said Amy.

Before Amy puts a perfume bottle on the shelves she'll take a sample smell and she liked almost all the one she tried. She gave Bulbasaur a sample too.

"So Bulbasaur, do you like this one?" Amy asked,

"Bulba!"

"I like this one too!" said Amy and smiled.

Aura watched Amy as she happily enjoys her time with Bulbasaur.

"She really loves Poke'mon," Aura thought.

After everything was done, and having the evening rolling in then to a close, along with the perfume shop.

Amy collapsed onto the floor and patted Bulbasaur when she sat next to her. Amy looked around and finally noticed that she doesn't have the slightest clue where her traveling companions are.

"Um, do you know where my friends are?" Amy asked. Aura looked at her,

"You finally asked, well, they went with the lady you saw in the kimono. Your friends are probably at the gym," Aura replied.

"WHAT?" Amy exclaimed immediately shooting up to a stand.

"I'll get you to the gym tomorrow, okay?" Aura asked insuring that she will.

"Hn…Not fair," Amy mumbled.

Amy slept in the back of the shop, Aura locked the shop but it was able to be openedfrom the inside so Amy wasn't trapped. She let her Poke'mon out so she can have company; though, she really wished Pikachu was with her. Bulbasaur also stayed,

"Bulbasaur, these are my friends. This is Pidgeotto, Krabby, and Charmander," Amy introduced and her Poke'mon gave a cry hello.

"Bulba, Bulbasaur!" Bulbasaur replied.

Amy then tucked herself in her blankets for the night with her Poke'mon and Bulbasaur beside her.

The next morning, Amy was up and ready…for her gym battle that is!

Like Aura promised, she's going to help Amy get into the gym.

They headed for the gym with Bulbasaur tagging along.

Aura walked Amy through the front doors and that was all there is to it,

"Well that was easy," said Amy,

"Yeah but I better escort you the whole way," said Aura and she lead her to the gym arena.

"Erika, the girl from yesterday is a trainer challenging for a badge!" Aura announced.

Amy looked across the room where Erika stood. It was the same woman in the kimono yesterday! Only this time, she wasn't wearing anything particular standing out except for the kimono itself so no make up or anything.

"Um, hi, I'm sorry for insulting perfume yesterday, it was just a bad habit that I got from my dad," said Amy nervously,

"Well if that's the case, I guess I can battle you. But I'm still going to teach you a lesson!" said Erika.

"Well I'm ready! The name's Amy!" said Amy confidently.

"And I'm Erika of this gym! I accept your challenge," said Erika.

"We will each use three Poke'mon no time limit, is that good for you?" Erika asked,

"Sure!" Amy agreed.

"Okay, Tangela! I choose you!" Erika called out.

"And I choose…"

"Oh I forgot! Pikachu isn't with me!"

"Uh, Pidgeotto!"

"I still have an advantage at least," Amy thought.

Aura and Bulbasaur watches from the side as a girl judges the battle.

"Tangela! Constrict!"

"Pidgeotto! Quick attack!"

Pidgeotto was too fast and dodged Tangela's attack and hits Tangela as well.

"Poison Powder now!"

"Use Gust attack!"

And Poison powder literally back fires.

"Finish this! Use Wing attack!"

The Wing attack hits its mark as Tangela was knocked out.

"Tangela is unable to battle! Pidgeotto wins!"

"Alright! Great job Pidgeotto!" Amy cheered.

"Not bad, get ready! Go! Victreebel!" Erika called out.

The battle resumes and Amy makes the first attack.

"Pidgeotto! Gust now!"

But Victreebel dodged,

"Now Victreebel!"

And Victreebel uses wrap on Pidgeotto,

"Oh no!"

"Now Victreebel! Use Poison Powder!"

Pidgeotto got sprayed and was still caught in wrap.

"…Use peck!" Amy shouted and Pidgeotto did just that to release from the wrap attack.

"The Poison will get to Pidgeotto eventually, but until then, Victreebel! Use Acid!"

"Alright Pidgeotto! Fly and use Wing attack!" Amy commanded. Pidgeotto flew and attacked, but then felt pain from the poison.

"Finish it! Razor leaf!"

"Pidgeotto!" Amy cried as her bird Poke'mon takes in the hit and the poison still affecting it.

"Pidgeotto is unable to battle! Victreebel wins!"

Amy went over to Pidgeotto and picked Pidgeotto up,

"You did a goodjob, Pidgeotto, take a good rest," said Amy and into the Poke'ball Pidgeotto went. Amy walks back to her position and takes out another Poke'mon,

"Charmander! Let's go!"

"Char char!"

"Let the battle begin!"

"Victreebel! Stun Spore!"

"Charmander! Flamethrower!"

Charmander throws a flamethrower through the stun spore and hits Victreebel at the same time. It was also a critical hit and Victreebel was knocked out.

"Great job Charmander!"

"Char!"

"Alright, it's about time you met your match! Go Gloom!"

"Gloom?" Amy repeated,

"Don't judge my long time friend, Gloom, Amy," said Erika.

As the battle starts, the first thing that happened was that Gloom launched a horrible smell that Charmander nearly fainted from that smell.

"Hang in there Charmander! Don't give in! Use Flamethrower!"

"Char!"

The flamethrower hits,

"Gloom! Use Solar Beam!"

"Oh, Charmander Skull Bash before Gloom launches Solar Beam!"

Charmander rushes towards Charmander and both collided with the attacks. Charmander hits Gloom with Skull Bash but then Solar Beam was launch right after and both was blown back.

"Gloom! Are you okay?"

"Charmander! Hang in there buddy!"

The gym leader and Amy watches both their Poke'mon rise for another go.

"Magical leaf!"

"Flamethrower! And go for a scratch attack!"

As the leaves head for Charmander, Charmander blocks with flamethrower and charges for a scratch attack.

"Not so fast! Acid!"

Charmander got splattered in acid,

"Don't give in! Flamethrower one more time!"

"Char! CHAR!"

Amy and Erika watch to see if Flamethrower ended this battle or not.

Isaac and Rose ran into the gym,

"We didn't miss it did we?" Isaac asked panting,

"Um, I think we did," said Rose when she saw Erika recall her Gloom.

"NO! I wanted to see the battle!" Isaac complained and continued with a few more 'no's.

"Amy, you are a strong trainer, even though you're Poke'mon had the advantage you still battled well," said Erika when she walked up to Amy,

"Thanks, but I owe it all to my Poke'mon!" said Amy with a smile.

"I'm happy to give you this Rainbow Badge," said Erika handing the badge over to her, and Amy gladly accepting it.

"Wow, I got…a Rainbow Badge!"

"Pika Pi!" Pikachu cheered when he saw his trainer win another badge.

"Pikachu!" Amy called and Pikachu jumped into her arms,

"Charmander! Come on! You deserve a hug too!" said Amy and Charmander got a hug by Amy and Pikachu.

"Thank you so much for your help, Aura," said Amy as the group got ready to leave,

"Oh you're quite welcome, and come back any time for some perfumes, okay?"

"Well, I guess I can give it a shot…next time," said Amy as she turns to leave with her friends.

"Bye!" Rose waved,

"See ya!" said Isaac and waved too.

Before the three and Pikachu could get no more then five feet, Bulbasaur gave a cry,

"Bulba!"

"Huh?" Amy turned around to see Bulbasaur run up to Amy,

"Bulbasaur?" Amy asked and knelt down.

Erika walked up next to Aura,

"It seems that this Bulbasaur really likes you, Amy, maybe you wouldn't mind taking care of her?" Erika asked,

"Really? You mean it? Of course I will!" Amy cried and picked up Bulbasaur.

"Yeah! I got a new Poke'mon! And a new friend!" Amy cheered and did a pose,

"Pika!"

"Bulba! Bulbasaur!"

Please R and R!

Next: The three travels to Scissor Street. Why? Ask Rose and Ray. See Amy try to get some answers from Ray about the St. Libra incident.
