Pokemon Universe

Episode 19: Take my pictures Koda! Wadonna the Model!

Narrator: Our heroes continue their journey to Xeon City, they are currently passing by the small town Karendal, Trent notices something.

Trent: Hey what's that?

Luna: Some lady, and a bunch of cute little pokemon!

Koda: Huh? Interesting

(Trent points his Pokedex at the small pink bird like pokemon)

Pokedex: Spritzee (Fairy) In the past, rather than using perfume, royal ladies carried a Spritzee that would waft a fragrance they liked.

Luna: They are soooooo cute! We gotta get a closer look!

Trent: But we gotta get going to Xeon City! I wanna get my third badge!

Koda: Come on Trent, it's only for a second and I wanna take pictures of the Spritzee. I'm sure my sister will love to see these cute pokemon.

(Koda and Luna walk closer to the lady surrounded by Spritzee.)

Trent: Hey! You guys!

(Just then the lady surrounded by the Spritzee turns around and sees Koda with his camera and begins to smile.)

Lady: OH YOUR JUST IN TIME!

(The Lady happily runs to Koda)

Koda: Uhhhhhhhh in time for what?

(Opening 1.5)

(The lady hugs Koda and almost suffocates him)

Lady: We were soooo worried you wouldn't show up!

Koda: I have no idea who you are!

Man: Oh honey, you found him! Perfect! I thought he wouldn't show up, now we can begin the photo shoot!

Luna & Trent: "Photo Shoot?"

Fred: Oh allow me to explain, I'm Fred the manager and this is my wife and well known model, Wadonna!

Luna: Well known? I never heard of her...

Fred: Hahaha, well I should say, soon to be well known, it's been my wife's dream to be a famous model and I'm helping her all the way. We called for a photographer

a while ago so he must be it.

Koda: I'm sorry you must have me confused with someone else...I'm just a traveling Poketographer, I don't take model pictures

Wadonna: Nonsense! your camera looks absolutely professional and I want nothing but the best for me and my little babies my adorable Spritzee!

Spritzee: Sprit!

Luna: Awwwwww! they're so precious! Koda, weren't you gonna take pictures of them?

Wadonna: Tell you what Koda, you take my pictures for my model run ,and I will let you get pictures of my Spritzees, sound good?

Koda: I mean...I

Wadonna: Good! we have a deal, now come inside, we have a lot to talk about and plans for our shot locations!

(Fred and Wadonna grab Koda and take him into the nearby house to discuss business.)

Trent & Luna: Uhhhhhhhhhh...

Trent: Do...do we follow them?

Luna: I guess...

(They all are in the house while Fred talks to Koda about the location they want the pictures.)

Fred: Ok, so what we want are full body shots of Wadonna and her Spritzee and we have permission to use the Karendal Hall for a location!

Wadonna: It's a beautiful hall, with marble columns and a luxurious space, the perfect place to show my beauty!

Koda: Ummmmm, Yeah, I guess that will work

Fred: It is also the area where they are showcasing the famous Persian Stone

Luna: Persian Stone?

Fred: It's a gorgeous rock that looks like the one Persian's carry on their heads, I wanted to take Wadonna to a place that holds the jewel for her first photoshoot,

and I even invited some officials to check out the space so they can see her in action.

Koda: This is all getting a little too intense!

Trent: It shouldn't be any problem for you, you take good pictures

Koda: Yeah, but I never had to do anything this professional before...

Luna: Trent's right, you'll do great!

Fred: We will meet you guys at the Karendal Hall in an hour see you then.

(Our heroes leave the house and sit at the Pokemon Center, Koda is nervous and thinks this over.)

Koda:...You guys I'm nervous...

Luna: You'll be fine

(Taillow comes out of his Pokeball and flies on top of Koda's head he looks down at Koda and pecks his head.)

Koda: Ow...thanks I needed that I guess...

Trent: I just hope this doesn't take too long we gotta get going

(The TV in the Pokemon Center begins to play.)

News Reporter: Hello citizens of Karnedal Town, we are going to have quite a famous spectacle here today at the Karendal Hall, where not only will a showcase of the Persian Stone

be happening, but also, up and coming model Wadonna will be modeling here as well, people are pumped up at the fabulous art and culture that will be displayed here later today!

Luna: Wow this is getting alot of attention

Koda: That's not helping Luna!

(Two shady guys sitting a table away from them hears the news on the TV and begins to grin.)

Trent: You might even be on TV Koda, that will be pretty cool

Koda: I can't be on TV!

Luna: Hey, it's almost an hour we better get moving

Koda: (Sigh) Ok...

(The shady guys that were sitting at the table leave before our heroes leave. Several minutes later, they arrive at the Karendal Hall.)

Koda: This place is huge!

Luna: And look at all the people here! This must really be a big deal

(Wadonna and her crew arrive.)

Koda: Hey, I'm here

Fred: Perfect, we can set up inside and get ready to take pictures

(Just then Officer Jenny appears.)

Officer Jenny: Good, I see you all made it here safe

(Trent sees Officer Jenny and quickly hides behind Luna)

Luna: Trent!? What's the big deal, it's just Officer Jenny?

Trent: That's the problem...she can't see me...

Luna: Relax Trent, it's not even the same one, and besides you kept you cool with the Blue Bell Officer...

Trent: Everytime I see Officer Jenny I think of the one in Cherryville...just keep me hidden ok?

Luna: (Sigh) Whatever...oddball

Officer Jenny: I'm here to guard the Persian Stone, if you kids need anything don't hesitate to ask

Koda: Ok

Luna: Ok

Trent:...

(Koda enters the empty room of the Hall and begins to set up his Tripod and camera. Taillow helps him and Wadonna applies makeup to herself and her Spritzee.)

Wadonna: I'm sooooooo excited! This is my first step to becoming a star! And it's all thanks to you Koda! Thank you

Fred: Yeah, I've never seen my wife so happy, we definitely are glad you came when you did

Koda: No problem...I never have taken a model's pictures before, but I love taking pictures so this will be fun

Taillow: Tai!

(Luna and Trent are at the other side of the hall looking at the Persian Stone with the rest of the citizens and art critics.)

Trent: What's the big deal anyway? It's just a shiny red rock

Luna: But it's really pretty and it sparkles with wonderful bright patterns!

Art Critic1: Indeed this rock in particular is a prime example of beauty simplified and refined

Art Critic2: Yes I concur...this stone has an elegant present and divine structure

(The two shady guys that were at the Pokemon Center are in the vents of the Karendal Hall and they are communicating via walkie talkies)

Shady guy1: The Persian Stone is spotted. I need you to keep that officer busy and I will obtain the stone and exit through the other side of the hall.

Shady guy 2: Rodger, the best bet you have for an exit without being detected is to leave through the other side of the Hall. If we wanna avoid commotion with

the people there, it will be best if we grab the stone and use this here code to leave the other side, the entire building will be in lockdown when we grab the stone

so we gotta be quick!

Shady guy1: Got it...they won't know what hit em!

(Meanwhile Koda is prepared and begins to take pictures of Wadonna.)

Koda: Ok, 3...2...1 There! Now hold that pose

Wadonna: I feel beautiful! Ahahahahahaha!

Fred: (This is getting to her head...but I'm glad she's happy) Why don't we take a bit of a break Koda you've taken a lot of pictures

Koda: Well, I wanna make sure I get a lot of ones to choose from when we print them.

Fred: Huh, I never thought of that...awesome

(The Spritzee surround Koda to thank him for the pictures. Their fragrance is sweet but really strong and Koda begins to sneeze.)

Wadonna: My Spritzee babies love everything you have done for us, thank you!

Koda:(Achoo) Yeah no problem.

(Around the same time on the other side of the Hall, we see Trent and Luna still listening to the Art Critics talk about the stone.)

Art Critic 1: With it's brace and luster, the stone clearly is a prime example of beauty in purest form!

Art Critic 2: With the robust and glistening figure that cannot be rivaled, this stone is the shining definition of extraordinary marvoulation...

Luna:...they've been at this for hours...

Trent: We get it, the stone is great...ughhhhhhh

Luna: Hey Trent, you wanna go grab a soda? We can check on Koda when we come back, I'm sure he'll be done by then.

Trent: Anything is better than listening to this go on for hours!

(As Trent and Luna leave the Hall the Shady guy runs to Officer Jenny. The man is disguised as a normal bystander)

Shady guy in disguise: Officer Jenny, I think you need to evacuate everyone, I saw a small fire beginning to grow in the Hall while I was looking at the artwork on the second floor!

Officer Jenny: What?! Ok I will tell everyone to evacuate immediately! Come on Herdier!

Herdier: Heeeeer!

(Officer Jenny grabs a Megaphone and begins to speak)

Officer Jenny: Attention everyone! a fire has been spotted on the second floor of the Karendal Hall! Everyone please evacuate immediately! I repeat!

A fire has been spotted in the Hall please safely evacuate the Hall immediately!

Trent: Woah! What just happened?

Luna: Looks like a fire must have started somehow...but something feels wrong...we gotta go back for Koda!

Trent: Oh yeah! he is still back there!

(In the other side of the Hall, Koda, Wadonna, and Fred hear the announcement and begin to pack their things. Wadonna throws a bit of a fit.)

Wadonna: It's sooooo unfair this was supposed to be the day I become a star! Come on guys we can still take a few more pictures.

Fred: Honey! Are you crazy? The place will burn and then you won't get the chance to be a star!

Wadonna: Oh, I will be a white hot star! No fire can burn brighter than my beauty!

Koda: Ummmmmmmmm Your wife's crazy!

Fred: I know, but hey you gotta respect that attitude...anyway no time! we gotta go honey!

Wadonna: Ohhhhhh alright...(Cries)

(Meanwhile outside the Hall on the other side)

Shady guy in disguise: I'll go and check if everyone is safe!

(Shady guy runs back in the building before Jenny can stop him.)

Officer Jenny: Wait! I'm calling back up...darn it he's already gone

Luna: Officer Jenny!

Officer Jenny: Oh it's you kids, now's not a good time the building has been evacuated and a fire is about to start

Luna: Something is wrong...I don't think there is a fire in the Hall at all!

Officer Jenny & Trent: What!?

Luna: Yeah, think about it, your announcement said there was a fire on the second floor, but look at the windows...there is no smoke at all?

Officer Jenny: You're right...but why would a citizen lie about spotting a fire?...Unless-

(Just then the Karendal Hall's windows and doors begin to lock and steel doors cover them)

Trent: What just happened to the doors and windows?

Officer Jenny: Shoot! I was too late! It's a Thief Lockdown!

Luna & Trent: Thief Lockdown?

Officer Jenny: Yes...whenever thieves come in to steal something at the Karendal Hall an alarm is triggered, when that alarm is triggered all of the doors and

windows begin to lock and are sealed by a steel door behind them, this is to make sure that whatever criminal takes something cannot leave the building and we can

apprehend them. There is no way in or out of the building unless you know the code to unlock the Thief Lockdown, and even still there are two codes, one to get in on this side, and another to exit on the side where Koda and Wadonna are taking pictures.

Luna: So someone must have lied to you and said there was a fire only to get you and everyone else to leave the building and take the Persian Stone.

Officer Jenny: Yeah but now they can't escape!

Trent: Hey! you told everyone to leave the building right? I don't see Koda anywhere...

Luna: I don't see Wadonna or Fred either! This is bad! they didn't make it out in time!

Officer Jenny: No! now lives are at stake! I have to use the entrance code to get inside and save them!

Luna: We wanna come too! Koda is our friend.

Officer Jenny: Kids it's way too dangerous!

Trent: We have to go in there and see if Koda's alright!

Luna: Plus we are pretty strong Pokemon Trainers ourselves we'll be fine!

Officer Jenny: Alright come on, but when back up gets here leave this to them!

Trent & Luna: Got it!

(On the other side of the Hall Koda, Fred and Wadonna just noticed that the doors and windows have locked.)

Fred: Darn! the doors won't budge!

Wadonna: What!? We are trapped in here?

Koda: This isn't good...

(The shady guys now with the Persian Stone open up the vent and jump down. They head to the security computer ready to enter a code then see Koda, Wadonna, and Fred.)

Shady Guy 1: Darn It Clint! There are people here!

Clint: Strife calm down, all we need to do is make sure they keep quiet and we can get away scot free! Go Haunter!

Strife: Ok go Corphish!

(The robbers throw their pokeballs and their pokemon come out ready to attack.)

Wadonna: Oh goodness! These men are gonna attack us!? This is it! My modeling career is falling before it even started! Noooooooo!

Fred: Man I didn't expect this...They have the Persian Stone! They must be trying to steal it and to shut us up, they're gonna take us out!

Koda: Oh no...What are we gonna do?

(Wadonna's Spritzee all fly to Haunter and Corphish and let off an aroma to them they begin to get drowsy.)

Wadonna: Ha! Take that you thugs! my babies are more than just cute, they are pretty tough!

Strife: You little pest!

Clint: I got it Strife! Haunter use Ominous Wind

Haunter: Haaaaaaaaaaaaaun!

(Haunter's eyes glow dark purple and a black wind whips around the area blowing away the auroma and the Spritzee.)

Wadonna: Oh no! My babies!

Fred: We gotta find a way to keep them busy long enough for me to get in contact with Officer Jenny!

Koda:...Ok! I will battle them and keep them busy

Fred: Koda are you sure? These guys look tough!

Koda: I'll do my best!

(Koda walks up to the robbers)

Koda: Hey! If you guys wanna fight! I'll take you guys on! (What the heck am I doing!?...I'm not Trent or Luna this guy might destroy me...but I gotta do something)

Strife: Hahahahahaha! Kid, you don't wanna get in our way we'll destroy you

Clint: This kid has guts, I'll give him that! I'll battle you kid!

Strife: We can whip this kid out in no time

Clint: No! I wanna battle this kid one on one! I respect his courage enough, and I wanna beat that courage outta him!

Strife: We don't have time to be playing around Officer Jenny' ll be here soon!

Clint That's why you're gonna go to the other side of the Hall and keep watch I'll beat this kid fast and contact you when I'm out of the building, we can still get out with the Stone

Strife: Alright man if you say so. Come on Corphish

Corphish: Cor!

(Corphish and Strife run to the other side of the Hall to keep watch. Meanwhile Trent, Luna, and Officer Jenny enter the code to get to the entrance of the Hall.)

Officer Jenny: Ok I'll enter the code and we can go inside

(Officer Jenny enters the code but the door will not open.)

Officer Jenny: Shoot! They must have changed the passcode!

Luna: We gotta hurry! Koda's in there.

Officer Jenny: I'm going to contact the main security programer and ask him how to reset the door.

Luna: (Koda...I hope you're ok, we're on our way.)

(Meanwhile in the Hall Koda is about to battle Clint.)

Clint: Alright kid pick your pokemon so we can get this show on the road!

Koda: Ok here it goes! Taillow! I choose you!

(Koda throws his Pokeball and Taillow flies out ready to battle Haunter.)

Clint: This is gonna be fun, let's goooooo!

Koda VS. Clint

Clint: Haunter let's show them what happens when you mess with us! Use Dark Pulse

Haunter: Teeeeeeer!

Koda: Taillow dodge and use Wing Attack!

Taillow: Taillow Ta!

(Taillow flies down to dodge the Dark Pulse then flies up to use Wing Attack)

Clint: Not gonna work brat! Haunter, use Sucker Punch!

Haunter: Haaaaaaaun!

(Haunter quickly flies to Tailow and swiftly punches Taillow with a dark aura fist Taillow is hit hard.)

Taillow: Taaaaaaa!

Koda: No! Taillow!

Clint: Come on kid! You gotta be better then that I want this to be fun!

Koda: Taillow are you ok?

(Taillow is hurt but gets back up ready to continue.)

Clint: Your Tailow is tougher than I thought. but this will bring it down, use Fire Punch!

Koda: Tailow use Double Team!

Taillow: Ta Ta Ta Ta Ta

(Taillow makes multiples of itself to dodge the Fire Punch Haunter's attack hits an illusion.)

Clint: You can't hide from me kid! Ominous Wind!

Haunter: Haunteeeeeer!

(Ominous Wind whips around the area and the illusion Taillows fade only the real one is around.)

Clint: Got you! Fire Punch!

Haunter: Ter!

Koda: Dodge it!

Taillow: Tai!

(Taillow quickly flies over Haunter to dodge the Fire Punch.)

Clint: Ha! Was a trick! Haunter Toxic!

Haunter: Hau!

(Haunter opens its mouth and a purple slime shoots out of Haunter's mouth and hits Taillow. Taillow is now poisoned)

Clint: Now what are you gonna do kid?

Koda: Oh no Taillow! (Taillow is poisoned...This is bad if I don't do something soon. Taillow is done for!)

Clint: Let's finish these brats off with a Fire Punch!

Haunter: Haunter Hau!

Taillow: Tai...Tai...Taillow!

(Haunter flies forward to hit Taillow with a Fire Punch, but Tailow flies so fast Haunter's attack misses Haunter and Clint are wondering where Taillow is.)

Clint: What the? What happened?

Tailow: Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaailooooooooow!

(Taillow flies at Haunter fast with a white glow behind it as it hits Haunter hard)

Koda: Woah! What attack was that? It looks like

(Koda then flashbacks to Trent's gym battle with Sora and remembers Sora's Staravia using an attack that looks like it.)

Koda: This must be Aerial Ace! It's so fast and powerful.

Fred: Hey Koda! I think Taillow's attack power went up since it was poisoned. It's an Ability called Guts!

Koda: Wow Taillow...We can do this!

Taillow: Taillow!

Clint: Alright kid you're lucky hits are over! You're finished! you hear Haunter use Sucker Punch!

Haunter: Haunter Haunter!

Koda: Double Team!

Taillow: Tai Tai Tai Tai!

(The illusions of Taillow form and Haunter's attack misses .)

Clint: I told you that won't work kid! Ominous Wind!

Koda: I'll use that!

Haunter: Haunteeeeer!

Koda: Taillow use Aerial Ace with the wind!

Taillow: Taaaaailow!

(Tailow takes a bit of damage from the poison but flies really fast with the wind from the Ominous Wind attack. With the added speed Taillow hits Haunter multiple times with Aerial Ace.)

Clint: Darnit! I can't believe this kid is getting the best of me! Sucker Punch now!

Haunter: Haunter Haunter!

Koda: Double Team!

(Haunter sends a flurry of punches to Taillow but they miss hitting illusions instead while Tailow continues to hit Haunter with Aerial Ace attacks. Taillow does slowly lose health from poison.)

Koda: You can do it Taillow!

Tailow: Taaaaaaaaailow!

(Taillow is about to land the final Aerial Ace but the poison does damage and Taillow falls to the ground and faints.)

Koda: Taillow...Taillow no!

Wadonna: Oh no! and that little Taillow did his best...

Fred: Shoot!

(Meanwhile outside Officer Jenny finds out how to reset the passcode and opens the door.)

Officer Jenny: We're in! Let's go!

Trent & Luna: Right!

(Meanwhile inside the building)

Clint: Well it looks like that's it kid! You lost!...but you know what?

Koda:...

Clint: Here, take it!

(Clint gives Koda the Persian Stone)

Fred: Hey! What's your deal? Why are you giving us the Stone?

Clint: I would have lost that battle if Taillow wasn't poisoned and used Guts, and I see something in this kid that reminds me of when I was a young trainer.

Koda: I'm not a trainer, I'm a Poketographer

Clint: Kid, Whatever you are, I respect you, you're strong and you're gonna accomplish your goals, so I'll just admit defeat and pretend we never met.

Koda: Ummmm Ok

Strife (Walkie Talkie): Yo Clint we gotta a problem, Officer Jenny is here with some brats! I'm holding them off, get done with the battle and let's go!

(Trent, Luna and Officer Jenny see Strife and battle him to get him out the way.)

Trent: Pichu use Thundershock!

Pichu: Piiiiiichuuuuu!

(The Thundershock hits Corphish hard and it faints.)

Strife: Darnit Clint hurry up!

(Clint then meets Strife and walks to Officer Jenny with arms out.)

Strife: Uhhhhhh Clint?What are you doing?

Luna: Hey you! What did you guys do with our friend Koda!?

Clint: We did nothing...I gave him the Persian Stone to give back to you guys.

Strife: You did what!? That's the whole reason we came here!

Clint: I'm turning myself in...

Strife: Ok now I know you've lost it! Why!?

Clint: You wouldn't understand Strife, but I can tell you this...if you run now, I'm pretty sure they will catch you. I would turn myself in too if I were you, since we haven't taken anything we won't get a long sentence.

Strife: Uhhhhhh darn! Alright! I can't believe you lost to that brat!

Clint: I didn't lose, but I couldn't live with myself if I took out a kid that reminds me of myself...he was strong, and a reminder of what I used to be...so I want to turn over a new leaf.

Strife: You're crazy!...but maybe you're right...

Officer Jenny: Alright then! you two come with me!

(Officer Jenny puts handcuffs on Strife and Clint and they walk towards her car. Luna, and Trent run to Koda and the others to see if they are ok)

Trent & Luna: Koda!

Koda: Hey you guys

Luna: I'm so glad you're ok!

Wadonna: Yes! we are alive and beautiful! And it's all thanks to Koda and his Taillow!

Fred: Speaking of which, we better get Taillow to a Pokemon Center, it weakens from the battle.

Koda: Yeah, let's go!

(The gang comes out of the Pokemon Center with Taillow healed and Wadonna and Fred thank Koda for everything he has done today.)

Fred: Koda, we've been doing some thinking and we want to ask, can you join us for Wadonna's modeling Tour?

Koda: What!?

Wadonna: Yes! We looked at the photos you took and they look perfect! Plus you are strong so you can defend us against threats, what do you say? You will be famous along with me and my darling Spritzees!

Spritzees: Sprit Sprit Zee!

Luna: That's a big opportunity!

Trent: Yeah, you'll be famous and get to travel the world

Koda: Yeah...but...

Trent: We understand if you wanna go Koda

Luna: Yeah don't pass this chance up

(Just then a Photographer runs up to the group.)

Nate: (Pant) ...I found you guys! I'm sorry I'm Nate I was supposed to do Photography work for Wadonna at the Karendal Hall?

Wadonna: Oh I'm sorry, we have a great Photographer that will be touring with us, right Koda?

(Koda takes a minute to look at Trent and Luna, then looks at Tailow and thinks.)

Taillow:...Tai?

Koda: I'm sorry Wadonna and Fred...but I can't tour with you guys

Fred: But why?

Koda: I went on this journey with Trent and Luna to take pictures of Pokemon all around the Gyaza Region. I'm doing this so I can fill up my scrapbook and let my sister Sonya see all sorts of Pokemon.

I have to see this journey through to the end...and plus...Trent and Luna are my friends and they need me...and I need them. I wouldn't have made it this far without them. So I can't travel with you guys I'm

sorry.

Fred: I understand Koda, and I respect your choice. I wish you the best of luck on your journey.

Wadonna: I'm crying with absolute beauty! You are sweet Koda! We will miss you! Good luck on your journey!

(Trent and Luna smile at the fact that Koda chose to stay with them on the journey.)

Fred: Well goodbye Koda, and thanks for everything!

Wadonna: Here take this!

(Wadonna gives Koda, Trent and Luna signed pictures of herself.)

Koda: Thanks...hehe

Wadonna: Now you kids will have my beauty to guide you in your journey!

Luna: She's definitely a...proud woman

Trent: More like a weird-

(Luna elbows Trent's side)

Trent: Owe! hey!

Luna: Show some respect!

Koda: Well thank you for giving me the chance to take pictures of you.

Wadonna: Goodbye Koda you will always be the first photographer of beauty!

Koda: Hehe...Thanks!

Fred: Honey, we're going to another city

Wadonna: Then let's go! Come on new photographer you got a long way to go before you capture this beauty like Koda did so let's get moving!

Nate: Ummmm yes ma'am!

(They get in the car and drive off, afterward, Trent, Luna, and Koda begin to walk on the road,)

Trent: So how far are we to Xeon City?

Koda: About a week away..

Trent: We better get moving then!

Luna: Trent! Wait, slow down!

(Trent runs forward with Luna following him.)

Koda: I'm becoming brave...I will complete the scrapbook for you Sonya. And my friends will help me do it...

Trent: Koda! Hurry up!

Koda: Oh! Wait up guys! Don't leave me behind!
