Episode 218: Gone Corphishin'

It was the very next morning as Sora and Kairi had gotten up early to catch the sunrise. Sora was a tad drowsy, but he did his best to stay awake to see it.

"Such a beautiful sunrise, Sora," Kairi said.

"It sure is," Sora agreed, putting his arm around her shoulder. "It was totally worth getting up early. Just as long I get to watch the sunrise with you, Kairi." Kairi giggled as she rested her head on his shoulder.

"I was worried about you sleeping through it. Then again, you're always cute when you're asleep; just like in your baby pictures," Kairi gushed, making Sora blush.

"Hey now, Kairi," Sora said, feeling embarrassed. She laughs.

"Got you riled up," Kairi said.

"Wasn't fair," Sora pouted.

"Just wanted to ruffle your feathers," Kairi said. The couple both shared a laugh as Pikachu, Plusle, and Minun watched with smiling faces as Taillow, Torchic, Treecko, Mudkip, Cascoon, Silcoon, Morelull, Stufful, and Feebas were still asleep. The electric rodent Pokémon went up to their trainers as Sora had patted Pikachu and Kairi had cuddled Plusle and Minun. "Kinda wish those two Pichu were still with us. Plusle and Minun would have been such big sisters for them."

"Yeah, they would have. They would love those little tykes just as much as your mom does," Sora said. He then starts laughing.

"What's so funny?" Kairi asked.

"Just thinking about how your mom would have them dressed in little sailor outfits. They would be a pair of Donald Ducks," Sora said as he and Kairi had both laughed.

"And at the same time, it'll be cute. I don't doubt my mom is probably doing that right now," Kairi said, laughing. Just as they continued laughing a Wingull came diving down. It fires Water Gun right at the couple and Pokémon, making them scatter.

"Whoa!" Sora yelped.

"Pika!" Pikachu also yelped.

"It came from that Wingull!" Kairi said, pointing at the seagull Pokémon.

"Oh, you are going to regret ruining our tender moment, Wingull. That I promise you," Sora said, turning to his partner. "Go for it, Pikachu!"

"Pika!" Pikachu said. Pikachu jumped in to battle the attacking Wingull. Wingull came down with Wing Attack to strike at Pikachu.

"Dodge it with Quick Attack!" Sora ordered. Pikachu ran to avoid Wing Attack. Wingull used Quick Attack to strike Pikachu. Pikachu and Wingull struck hard with their clashing Quick Attacks. Wingull fired another Water Gun right at the mouse Pokémon. "Dodge and use Thunderbolt!" Pikachu dodges and electrifies the seagull Pokémon. Wingull fell on the sand, stunned from the attack. Sora takes out a Pokéball and tosses it right at the Wingull, making it flow inside. The Pokéball wobbles around for a moment before stars swirls around it, confirming the catch. Sora's Pokédex then starts buzzing asking him if he wants to keep Wingull with him. He chose to send Wingull right to Professor Oak's lab.

"Way to go, Sora!" Kairi said, hugging her boyfriend.

"Thanks Kairi," Sora said, hugging her back.

Elsewhere on the beach, a couple were camping out on the beach.

"Man, this is the life, huh babe?" The young man asked.

"Uh-huh. Nothing beats a beach camp out. It's a good way to get an all-over tan," the young woman said already in her bikini, laying on her lounge chair.

"It's kinda early for it, don't you think?" The young man asked.

"It's never too early. Besides, isn't it worth it just to see in my swimsuit?" The young woman asked in a seductive tone. He didn't answer. Just seeing there was enough to make his blood run. She giggles as she waved her feet in the air. "Thought so." Just then, the same mysterious creature tunnels its way through the ocean and right through the sand. The young woman screams as the lounge chair is knocked over. "What the hell was that?!"

"I don't know! Are you alright?" The young man asked. She was about to answer when the mystrious creature makes its way back towards them. They scream as they ran for their lives. The creature continues to burrow underground and patrols the beach.

Over to Sora, Kairi, and Pikachu, they got done with their chores and decided to undergo some training for Sora's battle with Brawly. Sora, Pikachu, Taillow, Torchic, Treecko, Mudkip, and Cascoon all began their meditation training. They sat by the shore line to wait for the wave.

"Okay guys. Concentrate. Brawly has trained his Makuhita through surfing. Just using a Flying Type attack alone won't be enough, because he may have found another way around it. So we'll use another method. When you feel the waves pressing against you, think of it as your opponent. Keep that focus until you feel the motion with your skin," Sora instructed. All of the Pokémon nodded. Kairi, Stufful, Morelull, Plusle, Minun, Feebas, and Silcoon all watched them closely.

"I know Sora is doing this because he didn't train enough since battling Roxanne. Good thing, because I don't want to think about how it'll turn out if he had lost against Brawly," Kairi said in her thoughts. She watched Sora and his Pokémon kept meditating, waiting for the wave to come. The wave began to come in, freaking out Torchic.

"No. Not yet, Torchic. Keep your cool," Sora said. Taillow shared Torchic's concern. They kept waiting for the wave to get closer. "Don't move until it's just a little closer." The wave kept coming. "A little closer. A little closer." The wave came close enough and Sora opens his eyes. "NOW!" Sora, Pikachu, and the other Pokémon got up to run, but only Torchic ended up not getting soaked. Kairi went right up to Sora.

"You okay?" Kairi asked.

"Torchic managed to make it out quick enough," Sora said.

"Pika," Pikachu groaned.

Kairi hung Sora's wet clothes just so he wouldn't catch a cold and he's wrapped in a blanket until his clothes were dried. She came in the tent.

"Want some tea, Sora?" Kairi asked.

"Okay," Sora said as he accepted his cup and drank it. An hour later, Sora and his Pokémon went back the same spot to wait for the wave. "Okay. Focus. Focus. Focus." The wave came in again. "Now!" Sora, Pikachu, Torchic, Mudkip, and Taillow timed it just right as Treecko and Cascoon weren't so quick and they got drenched. "Looks like your timing was off this time, guys."

"Pikachu," Pikachu said.

"I guess we'll have to keep working on it," Sora said.

"Say Sora," Kairi spoke up. "How about you take a break for a while. You might end up running them ragged." Sora nodded as he knew she was right.

"They could use a break," Sora said, calling Taillow, Treecko, Mudkip, Torchic, and Cascoon back. "So, any improvements on your part, Kairi?" Kairi smiled as she nodded.

"Uh-huh. Stufful and Morelull have come a long way," Kairi said. "Stufful, show him your Focus Blast." Stufful focuses with her Focus Blast and sends it right up into the air. "Now, use your Mega Punch!" Stufful jumps into the air and lands a Mega Punch, making her own firework. Sora was mighty impressed.

"Wow. That was awesome, Kairi!" Sora praised her. She smiled as she hugs him tightly and kisses him on the lips.

"Just my way of thanking you," Kairi said.

"Think you can thank me again?" Sora asked. She giggled to her boyfriend's gesture as Plusle and Minun gave off a loud cry.

"Plusle!" Plusle yelled.

"Minun!" Minun also yelled.

"What's wrong?" Kairi asked. She got her answer when the tunneling creature plows right under the tent. "No! Not the tent!" The creature takes the tent with it, until it came to a small bush, but the creature kept tunneling. Sora turned to Pikachu.

"Okay Pikachu! Thunderbolt!" Sora ordered. Pikachu was about to fire Thunderbolt, until Kairi stopped him.

"No Sora! Pikachu will burn the tent into a crisp!" Kairi warned.

"Right. Bad plan," Sora said.

"And I have a better one! Silcoon! String Shot!" Kairi ordered. Silcoon fires String Shot and it sticks to the creature, stopping it.

"That is a better plan," Sora said.

"That's great, Silcoon! Now pull!" Kairi said. Silcoon began to pull, but the creature began to pull SIlcoon. "No way!"

"It's too strong!" Sora exclaimed. Stufful ran towards Silcoon and pulls her.

"Good work, Stufful! Now keep pulling!" Kairi said. Stufful held onto Silcoon as Silcoon kept holding on with her strings, but it turns out that the creature is much stronger than Stufful. It dragged them as Stufful tried to hold her ground, much to her strength. Sora, Kairi, and Pikachu went over to the two Pokémon. Plusle, Minun, Morelull, and Feebas did the same thing, trying to help them pull, but it pulls them all, taking them on a wild ride.

"Not only it's strong, but it's fast too!" Sora exclaimed.

"Strong enough to give Stufful a good pull!" Kairi also exclaimed. They were dragged to the sea and they fell right into the water. Both Sora and Kairi hung their clothes for them to dry. They were wrapped with seperate blankets. "Of all the rides I have been on since I was little, this is the wildest. Now I know why my grandma never let me on the big rides."

"But what the heck was that anyway?" Sora asked. "There's no way that could have been a Diglett."

"Maybe it was a Krabby or maybe a Nincada," Kairi said.

"Whatever it was, not only it was fast, but it was strong enough to give even Stufful a tug. I don't even want to imagine how it'll look if you brought Machop," Sora said.

"I think we were on its territory, so that's why it attacked us. And I can safely assume it'll be back," Kairi said.

"And we'll be ready for it," Sora said.

"You're not thinking of catching it, are you?" Kairi asked.

"It's either that or just wait for whatever it is to come back and gives us another toss," Sora said.

"I figured you would say that. And I'll help you get whatever Pokémon that attacked," Kairi said. Sora smiled as he nodded.

Meanwhile over to the cave, Turtonator anxiously waits for its trainer to come back. Turtonator loyally obeys the command to wait for his return. Just then, a Makuhita and a small quadruped Pokémon with four chubby legs and a large head, more than half the size of its body. Its body is black in color with gray plates of armor covering most of its body parts.Its eyes are a pale shade of turquoise. There are several openings on its armor, and a blunt spike extends from its back.This Pokémon is known as Aron. They looked right at the large Pokémon with a smile.

"Hi there." - Makuhita subtitle. Turtonator turned to the smaller Pokémon.

"What are you doing there?" - Aron subtitle.

"Just waiting for my trainer to come back. He told me to stay here and wait for him to come back." - Turtonator subtitle.

"You have a trainer?" - Aron subtitle.

"Uh-huh. I've been waiting here for a while and he hasn't come back yet, but I know he will." - Turtonator subtitle.

"Aren't you hungry?" - Makuhita subtitle.

"Now that you mention it, I am feeling a bit hungry. And I could use some food." - Turtonator subtitle.

"Don't worry, pal. We can find something to eat for you." - Aron subtitle.

"Thanks guys. You guys are the greatest." - Turtonator subtitle.

Makuhita and Aron left to find some food for the hungry Turtonator. Unknown to anyone, a pair of diamond eyes appear from the leaves of a nearby tree. It has deep, purple colored fur with small claws, pointed ears, and sharp teeth. Going with the gemstone eyes is a gem on its stomach and three gems on its back. This Pokémon is known as a Sableye. Another Pokémon watching them is a small humanoid Pokémon with a yellow and black color combination. It has a round, cute face with red eyes. Its hands are black and three-fingered. Its legs are covered by yellow flaps, resembling a hakana, with its black feet visible. Its most prominent feature is the ponytail-esque pair of jaws on the back of its head. This Pokémon is called a Mawile.

"That poor schmuck. He's in denial." - Sableye subtitle.

"He doesn't realize that his trainer isn't going to come back. You think we should tell him?" - Mawile subtitle.

"No. It's best we just stay out of it. Besides, he's going have to figure it out for himself." - Sableye subtitle.

Sableye and Mawile disappeared back in the shrubbery and continued to watch the abandoned Turtonator.

That night, Sora and Kairi had the tent fixed and set back up. Kairi had her Pokémon food placed on a plate as bait for the attacking Pokémon.

"Good idea of using food as bait, Sora," Kairi whispered.

"If it's a Pokémon, then it'll go for the food. Once it reaches for it, then that's when we spring the trap," Sora whispered back.

"Right. Have Pikachu, Plusle, and Minun give the shocks. Love this plan!" Kairi said. Sora and Kairi locked hands as they grinned. They proceeded to wait for their attacker to show up.

"Any moment now. It'll come on out to chow down," Sora grinned with a face that looked like a madman. They waited for a few moments until Pikachu's ears have perked up.

"Pika?" Pikachu asked. Sora turned to his partner.

"What is it, Pikachu? Did you just hear something just now?" Sora asked.

"Pikachu," Pikachu nodded.

Plusle's and Minun's ears both perked up along with Pikachu.

"Did you hear something too?" Kairi asked. Plusle and Minun both nodded. Sora and Kairi listened and they both heard a digging sound, but they couldn't tell where it was coming from.

"Where is it?" Sora asked.

"I don't know, but it's getting closer and closer," Kairi said.

The sound grew louder and louder. They both knew it was getting closer and closer to them. Sora looked around for any activity in the sand, but there was nothing. But that is what really hits him. He turned to Kairi.

"IT'S RIGHT BEHIND US!" Sora yelled. Kairi, Pikachu, Plusle, and Minun winced as the Pokémon tunneled right through them and sends them flying back on the beach. The mysterious Pokémon tunnels right pass them and heads right for the Pokémon food.

"No! The Pokémon food!" Kairi gasped. The mysterious Pokémon takes the plate underneath the sand and then discards the plate as it changes course once more.

"You're not getting away!" Sora proclaimed. "Pikachu! Thunderbolt!"

"Plusle! Minun! Discharge!" Kairi ordered. Plusle and Minun both fired Discharge and it struck the sand. Sora took a look, but what he saw were three red horns sticking out of the ground. The Pokémon tunneled underneath before he got a real good look. It left behind a hole big enough for a badger to tunnel through.

"Where did it go?" Sora asked.

"It just vanished," Kairi said. Both Sora and Kairi looked around for the attacking Pokémon. Sora turned to Pikachu.

"Hear anything, Pikachu?" Sora asked.

"Pikachu," Pikachu said, shaking his head. He sighed.

"Great," Sora said.

Back to the cave, Turtonator is seen sleeping soundly as Makuhita and Aron came back with more food for Turtonator to eat. They figured he wwould like some breakfast in the morning.

"Look at him. Just sleeping soundly. Not a care in the world. Just like those human babies I've been hearing so much about." - Makuhita subtitle.

"I'm thinking the same thing, Makuhita. It must be nice to have a trainer, right? I mean, someone who would feed you with that Pokémon food I heard about. And take you to one of those places with the Chansey healing you up." - Aron subtitle.

"Gotta admit, I'm kinda envious. What I heard is, that there are Pokémon that can go around the world. So many places to see and things to do. This guy's got it made." - Makuhita subtitle.

"It'll be a good idea to keep watch on the food, though. I heard there's a crazy Corphish on the loose." Aron subtitle.

"Oh, him. You have to be a crazy fool to end up on his turf. And that is why we are out here and not right there." - Makuhita subtitle.

"You and me both, Makuhita. You want the first shift or should I?" - Aron subtitle.

"I'll take the first watch and you can have the next watch." - Makuhita subtitle. Aron smiled as he yawned.

"Okay. Goodnight." - Aron subtitle. Aron laid down to get some sleep.

"Goodnight." - Makuhita subtitle. Makuhita stayed awake to keep any attacking Pokémon at a distance. Sableye and Mawile are still in the area, watching the scene. Mawile still thinks she should tell the truth, but Sableye was against it.

In the very next morning, Sora, Kairi, and Pikachu laid outside the tent, keeping an eye out for the attacker were exhausted from the lack of sleep. Sora yawned a big yawn and stretched his arms.

"Man, what a hectic night. Why does the sun have to be so bright?" Sora asked.

"Not one of us could get any sleep after what happened last night. Now, I'm too afraid to fall asleep without knowing when it'll come back," Kairi said.

"At least we got some clues out of it. One: it for the Pokémon food. And two: when Pikachu, Plusle, and Minun hit that thing, the sand went flying in the air. Also, I saw something," Sora said. That struck a cord with Kairi.

"What did you see, Sora?" Kairi asked,

"I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure I just saw three red horns. And I think it'll come right back for another attack," Sora said.

"Does that mean we'll have to use the food as bait again?" Kairi asked.

"It looks like that. And we'll have it set up all around," Sora said. Kairi caught on to his idea.

"I got you! No matter what it is, the Pokémon will go for the food no matter what, because it'll be everywhere! It'll take the bait no matter what!" Kairi said. Sora gives a thumbs up.

"Bingo!" Sora said.

"Pika, Pi!" Pikachu said.

"And that's only phase one," Sora said. Kairi tilted her head.

"Phase one?" Kairi asked.

"We'll dig pitfalls all around the beach since it digs through the beach. That way, no matter which hole it falls into, we have it trapped," Sora said.

"Didn't Team Rocket try this before?" Kairi recalled that one time.

"Yeah, but we haven't fallen in any lately, haven't we?" Sora asked.

"That's a good point," Kairi said.

"Now let's get to work," Sora said.

Sora, Kairi, and Pikachu got to work on making the trap for the attacking Pokémon. Stufful used Mega Punch to make the holes as the couple had left some Pokémon food as bait for the attacker. They left some on plates, just in different areas just to play it safe. Once they were done, they went back to the camp to wait.

Over to Makuhita and Aron, they came across the food, not sure on who left it there and why.

"Do you see what I see, Makuhita?" - Aron subtitle.

"Yeah. Could it be that kind of food you mentioned before?" - Makuhita subtitle. Aron takes a whiff.

"It looks like food. And it smells good too. Should we taste it just to make sure?" - Aron subtitle.

"I guess. But who's going to taste test it?" -Makuhita subtitle.

"How about you taste it? You found it first." - Aron subtitle.

"I think you should taste it first. It was your idea." - Makuhita subtitle.

"I insist. You take the first bite." - Aron subtitle.

"No, I insist. You should have the honors." - Makuhita subtitle.

"No, you." - Aron subtitle.

"No, you." - Makuhita subtitle.

"No, you." - Aron subtitle.

"No, you." - Makuhita and Aron subtitle. Aron sighs.

"Look. I have an idea. How about we both take one each and have a taste at the exact same time." - Aron subtitle.

"That sounds fair." - Makuhita subtitle. Both Aron and Makuhita takes a piece and holds it.

"At the count of three, we take a bite right at the exact same time. Deal?" - Aron subtitle.

"Deal. But to make sure there's no cheating, we should count right at the same time." - Makuhita subtitle.

"Okay." - Aron subtitle.

"One. Two. THREE!" - Aron and Makuhita subtitle. They both took a bite right at the exact same time. As they chewed the Pokémon food, their faces lit up

"This is the best thing I have ever tasted!" - Makuhita subtitle.

"My tastebuds have just gotten a taste of heaven!" - Aron subtitle.

"Do you think Turtonator will like it?" - Makuhita subtitle.

"We're not going to find out just by letting this go to waste." - Aron subtitle.

Both Pokémon took the plate and carried it back to the cave. They found more of the food and brought it back with them; they carried it in a huge sack. As the day shifted into night, little did they realize, that the trail was leading them right to the beach. As they reached the beach, they saw even more Pokémon food on the beach.

Sora, Kairi, and Pikachu were waiting at the bushes nearby to wait for their attacker to come.

"I hope your new plan works this time," Kairi said.

"Me too. And once it starts eating it," Sora started.

"I let out the other plate and place it," Kairi finished.

Makuhita and Aron looked around to make sure they weren't being watched. They spotted the couple with a Pikachu.

"Look! Humans! And two of 'em!" Makuhita subtitle.

"And not to mention, a Pikachu. Do you think that maybe they were the ones who left all that food out there?" - Aron subtitle.

"I think so. But soomething about this place seems rather off, though." - Makuhita subtitle.

"Doesn't this part of the beach look like that Corphish's turf?" - Aron subtitle.

"That's what I'm aiming for, Aron. What are they doing?" - Makuhita subtitle.

"I don't know. One of us has to distract them long enough for the other to get it." - Aron subtitle.

"You distract them. I can carry it. Also, I can run pretty fast for being so fat." - Makuhita suubtitle. Aron nodded as he went towards Sora, Kairi, and Pikachu to get their attention. Makuhita waited for them to turn around. Aron was close enough to them. Now, he had to get their attention.

"Aron! Aron, Aron!" Aron called out. Sora, Kairi, and Pikachu turned to see the small Pokémon behind them. Makuhita ran fast and headed for the plate.

"What the?" Sora asked.

"Where did you come from?" Kairi asked."

"Pika, Pika," Pikachu said.

"Aron, Aron, Aron," Aron said.

"Better see what this has to say about you," Sora said, taking out his Pokédex.

Aron, the Iron Armor Pokémon

Type: Steel/Rock

This Pokémon has a body of steel. To make its body, Aron feeds on iron ore that it digs from mountains. Occasionally, it causes major trouble by eating bridges and rails.

"For a Steel Type Pokémon, it sure gets plenty of iron in its diet," Sora said.

"Do you think maybe he's lost?" Kairi asked.

Makuhita filled the sack with food. Once he was done, he gave a hardy nod. Aron smiled.

"Kairi, don't we have a job to do?" Sora reminded her.

"Oh! Right. We should check on the bait," Kairi said. They all turned to see that the bait was gone. "The food! It's gone!"

"It must have eaten it while we were distracted," Sora deduced. Makuhita waited for Aron to come back.

"Come on, Aron, What are you doing?" - Makuhita subtitle.

"Now to leave some more out," Kairi said. She slowly carried the plate of Pokémon food and placed it on a rock. Makuhita smiled as he now understood.

"I see now." - Makuhita subtitle.

Aron knew it had to be even more food. Aron also knew Makuhita will be spotted if he tried to make a move. He had to stall them long enough for Makuhita to make his move.

"ARON! ARON! ARON! ARON! ARON!" Aron shouted. Sora, Kairi, and Pikachu quickly turned around.

"Shh! Keep quiet. You're going to give us away!" Sora said.

"What's gotten into him?" Kairi asked. Makuhita moved fast and got to the plate of Pokémon food. As Makuhita stepped down, his foot sets off the pitfall and it opens at the side. The couple and Pikachu turned around to see Makuhita with the plate and sack. Makuhita grinned sheepishly.

"Hey!" Sora shouted as he ran towards him. "Put that down, you thief!"

"Pika!" Pikachu shouted.

Aron jumped in front of Sora and Pikachu and landed a Headbutt onto Sora. Aron then gives Pikachu another Headbutt.

"Oh!" Sora wheezed.

"Sora!" Kairi gasped. Makuhita dumps the food in the sack. Makuhita and Aron ran off into the woods.

"Come back here!" Sora wheezed again. Just then, the attacking Pokémon comes right back. Pikachu's ears perked up again.

"Pika!" Pikachu said.

The couple turned to see the sand trail coming right towards them.

"Pikachu! Quick Attack!" Sora ordered. Pikachu dashes into the sand and flushes out the attacking Pokémon; revealed to be a wild Corphish.

"Corp!" Corphish said as it went flying.

"No way. All this time it was just a Corphish," Sora said. Kairi then realized something.

"So that's it. We were on his territory. That's why he was attacking us and took down our tent," Kairi said.

"He was strong enough to overpower Stufful even when caught in Silcoon's string and fast enough to tunnel underground. Now that Corphish is good as caught," Sora said. Corphish glares at Pikachu and he glares right at Corphish. "Pikachu! Thunderbolt!" Pikachu fires Thunderbolt, but the lobster-like Pokémon avoids the electric attack and fires back with a Bubble Beam. Pikachu gets struck hard. Corphish tunnels under the sand.

"Sora, Corphish could jump out at any moment!" Kairi said.

"I know. Corphish must be using his sneak attack to try to throw me off," Sora said. "Pikachu, be ready for anything!"

"Pika," Pikachu said. Corphish tunnels under Pikachu and sends him flying.

"Come on down with Iron Tail!" Sora ordered. Pikachu was starting to come down with Iron Tail, but Corphish stops the attack in its tracks and sends Pikachu flying right back at Sora. Both trainer and Pokémon fell to the ground.

"Sora!" Kairi gasped.

"I'm okay, Kairi. But what about you, Pikachu?" Sora asked.

"Pika," Pikachu said.

"Must have been that damage from Aron's Headbutt. You should rest up for a while, buddy," Sora said.

"Pikachu," Pikachu said.

"I need to think. Everytime I send out an attack, it bounces right back at me. I need to turn the tables on him," Sora said. He takes out Treecko's Pokéball and throws it.

"You're up, Treecko!" Sora called out as Treecko enters the battle, putting his twig in his mouth. "Stay where you are. Don't move until I give the word." Sora and Treecko waited for Corphish to make the first move. Kairi became anxious for the results. Corphish fires with a Bubble Beam. He grins. "Treecko! Bullet Seed!" Treecko fires Bullet Seed and it blocks the Bubble Beam. Corphphish became infuriated and came at the wood gecko Pokémon with Crabhammer.

"Watch for that Crabhammer!" Kairi warned.

"Quick Attack!" Sora ordered. Treecko dashes across the sand and slams right into Corphish. "Now use Pound!" Treecko gives the crustacean Pokémon a powerful smack with his leafy tail and it knocks out Corphish. Sora takes out a Pokéball and throws it at Corphish. He flows inside it. The Pokéball wobbles around and around in a violent fashion, knowing he probably won't stay in with ease. Stars swirls around the Pokéball, confirming the catch. Sora's Pokédex starts buzzing asking him if he wants to keep Corphish with him. He chose to send Corphish over to Professor Oak's lab. "Gotcha."

"That was a pretty good catch, Sora," Kairi said.

"Thanks Kairi. That Corphish may have caused us a lot of trouble, but at least nobody has to worry about any future attacks," Sora said. Kairi smiled as she nodded.

"I'm glad," Kairi said.

"Also, I'm thinking about that Aron and that Makuhita. The way that Aron headbutted me and Pikachu like that, I think they were wroking together," Sora stated.

"You're right. They were," Kairi said.

"Think we should do something about it?" Sora asked.

"No. It's best we just leave them be for now. Besides, I can always make some more Pokémon food given the right supplies. We should let them eat. Also, it's late. We should get some sleep," Kairi said, yawning.

"You're right, Kairi. No use crying over spilled milk. And we'll deal with those two when they become a problem," Sora said. "Also, after yesterday and today, I could use some sleep." Sora placed his arm around Kairi as they went to their tent with Pikachu following them in it. Both Sora and Kairi both fell asleep as soon as their heads hit their pillows.

Over to Makuhita and Aron, they panted as they were close to the cave.

"That was so very close. I thought for sure we would have been in trouble. Thanks for the save." - Makuhita subtitle.

"You know, I had to. You are my friend. Now let's head back and bring these to Turtonator." - Aron subtitle.

They nodded as they returned to the cave. It sure was an exciting day for Sora, Kairi, and Pikachu. And it looks like even more excitement is underway soon.
