I don't own Pokemon or Powerpuff Girls Z.
Castelia Gym Part 1
"Well that's one villain down and a whole lot more to go" Kaoru said raising her arms above her head and stretching.
"Villains? Do you seven know anything about that creature and those three girls?" a voice behind them asked.
They turned around and saw the man who was at the fountain in charge of the police.
"May we ask who you are first before we answer" Miyako asked politely.
"My name is Burgh and I'm the Castelia City Gym Leader," he told them with a bow.
Ash moved forward "My name is Ash and I challenge you to a gym battle."
At that moment both Kaoru and Misty hit him on the head.
"I apologize for my fiancées behavior. All he can think about when he meets a new gym leader is battling them," Misty said with a frown.
Ash glared at her "I'm not your fiancée."
Misty smirked "You are until your mother calls is off or we're married."
Burgh coughed to get their attention "Sorry to interrupt your spat but could you please tell me what you know about what happened at the fountain."
"We would be willing to tell you what we know, but first we should find someplace private to talk" Cilan said stepping forward.
"All right, follow me to my gym and we'll talk there" Burgh said as he turned and left the Pokemon Center.
They all followed him as he left the center and through the streets of Castelia City until they came to a greenhouse. When they walked inside the building they found themselves in what appeared to be a rainforest with a battlefield in front of them.
Burgh walked to the center of the field and turned to look at them "Are you going to tell me what you know?"
The girls nodded and with the help of Peach were able to explain everything to Burgh.
"Let me get this strait, you three girls and the mechanical dog are from another world, you're going from gym to gym to get the badges you need so you can challenge the League Champion, and while you're doing this you're trying to find villains from your world and capture them" Burgh said while rubbing his temples.
"Yep, that's pretty much everything in a nutshell" Peach said wagging his mechanical tail.
Burgh sighed before he looked at them with his eyes sparkling "We'll since you are going to have to get gym badges and I'm a gym leader, how about we have your gym battles now. Who's first?"
Ash jumped forward "I'll go first Burgh."
Cilan then stepped forward "If you don't mind I'll judge the battle."
"Sure, you can judge the battle Cilan. Now, Ash gym battles here consist of us both using three Pokemon each" Burgh said explaining the rules of his gym. After Ash got into position Burgh then threw a pokeball "Come out, Whirlipede."
What emerged from the pokeball was a Pokemon that resembled a light purple tire with long spikes, dark purple rings, and an eye in the center of its body.
Ash took his Pokedex out "Whirlipede, the curlipede Pokemon. It is usually motionless, but when attacked, it rotates at high speed and the crashes into its opponents. Protected by a hard shell, its spins its body like a wheel and crashes furiously into its enemies."
"Hey Ash, if Burgh beats you then you have to sleep on the couch for a month after we get married" Misty said with a smirk.
Ash glared at her and grumbled something before tossing out a pokeball "Come out, Pidove."
Iris leaned in towards Misty whispering, "You did that to get him motivated to win, didn't you?"
Misty just grinned.
"It seems your fiancée really wants you to win. So I'll just have to make you work for your victory" Burgh said smiling.
"How many times do I have to say this, SHE'S NOT MY FIANCEE! Now Pidove, use quick attack to get close to Whirlipede and the use wing attack," Ash said fuming with anger.
Pidove took to the air and used its great speed to get near Whirlipede before its wings started to glow with power. When Pidove's wing hit Whirlipede it sent it spinning in place before it fell on its side unconscious.
Burgh frowned "That was quit unexpected. You have a very unique Pidove there. I'm wondering how it will handle my next Pokemon. Come out, Dwebble."
The Pokemon that he sent out after returning his other one looked like a hermit crab with a rock on its back instead of a shell.
Miyako used her Pokedex "Dwebble, the rock inn Pokemon. It makes a hole in a suitable rock. If that rock breaks, the Pokemon remains agitated until it locates a replacement. This Pokemon can easily melt holes in hard rocks with a liquid secreted from its mouth."
"Dwebble use sand attack" Burgh said getting in the first attack.
Dwebble used its claws digging into the ground and throwing dirt into the air at Pidove.
"Pidove use gust to blow the sand away and then fly down and pick up Dwebble by its shell" Ash said smiling.
As the sand and dirt neared Pidove she flapped her wings rapidly blowing it away. Pidove then flew down and grabbed Dwebble's shell and started to fly back into the air. After Pidove was about twenty feet in the air she looked down and noticed Dwebble was still on the ground while she was carrying its shell.
Burgh raised an eyebrow "Well that's an interesting turn of events. Your Pidove is now weighed down by my Dwebble's shell, leaving my Dwebble able to move faster. Dwebble jump up and use smack down.
Dwebble crouched down a little before it launched itself into the air to look Pidove in the eyes. It then raised both of its claws and slammed them into Pidove's wings sending her to the ground. Pidove got shakily to her feet as Dwebble went to its shell and put it back on.
"Come on Pidove. I know you can do it" Ash said trying to encourage her.
As Pidove stood there it started to glow bright white and grow larger. When the light faded Pidove had grown twice as large with a larger tail, striped black and gray wings, a sharper beak, with black on top of its head and down its neck to its shoulders.
"What just happened?" Momoko asked in bewilderment.
"Pidove just evolved, which means its become a new and more powerful Pokemon" Iris explained to her.
Ash took his Pokedex out again to find out what Pidove had evolved into "Tranquill, the wild pigeon Pokemon. Many people believe that, deep in the forest where Tranquill live, there is a peaceful place where there is no war. It can return to its Trainer's location regardless of the distance separating them. New move learned air cutter."
"Tranquill fly into the air and use air cutter on Dwebble" Ash said with new confidence.
Tranquill took to the air again and when she was about fifteen feet in the air her right wing glowed before she flapped it sending a crescent shaped energy wave at Dwebble. Dwebble didn't have a chance to dodge before it was hit by the attack sending up a lot of dust into the air. When the dust cleared Dwebble's shell had been blasted off while knocking out Dwebble.
Burgh returned Dwebble to its pokeball "Well you're turning out to be quit the surprising challenger. I guess that means I have to not take any chances with my last Pokemon. Come out, Leavanny."
The Pokemon that appeared stood on two dark green legs, had leaves over its tail and arms, a leaf attached to its neck like a very high collar, and a bright yellow head with two long yellow antennae's.
Kaoru took out her Pokedex pointing it at the new Pokemon "Leavanny, the nurturing Pokemon. It keeps its eggs warm with heat from fermenting leaves. It also uses leaves to make warm wrappings for Sewaddle. Upon finding a small Pokemon, it weaves clothing for it from leaves, using the cutters on its arms and sticky silk."
"Be careful Tranquill" Ash told his Pokemon with worry.
"Leavanny use string shot to slow Tranquill down" Burgh said with a grin.
"Tranquill dodge and use wing attack," Ash said with a smile.
Leavanny opened its mouth and started to shoot sticky string at Tranquill. Tranquill flew up out of the way of the attack and then dove towards Leavanny with her wings glowing.
Burgh grinned, "Leavanny use protect and follow it up with string shoot again."
Leavanny put its arms in front of itself and began to glow blue. When Tranquill's wing hit Leavanny it pushed it back ten feet before flying back into the air. Leavanny then raised its head and started to shoot string at Tranquill's back.
"Tranquill turn around and use gust" Ash yelled countering.
Tranquill turned in time to start flapping its wings sending the string back at Leavanny.
"Leavanny use razor leaf to cut the strings" Burgh said countering the counter.
Ash smiled "Tranquill use air cutter and finish it."
Leavanny threw its arms in front of it sending out a dozen spinning leaves that cut through the strings. At that moment Tranquill stopped flapping her wings as her right wing began to glow, she then flapped her right wing sending a crescent of energy at Leavanny. The crescent of energy sliced through the leaves and slammed into Leavanny's chest knocking it out.
"Leavanny is unable to battle. The winner is Tranquill" Cilan announced with a smile.
Burgh walked towards Ash returning his Pokemon to its pokeball "Congratulations Ash, here's the Insect Badge as proof of your victory." The Badge looked like an insect's segmented wing, but colored green.
Ash accepted the badge and turned towards Misty holding it in front of himself "Ha, I'm not sleeping on the couch now."
Iris smiled "I thought you said she wasn't your fiancée."
"SHE'S NOT!" Ash yelled.
"But you just said that you're not going to be sleeping on the couch. Which means your looking forward to marrying me" Misty said as she skipped towards him before kissing him on the lips.
Ash turned bright red before passing out into her arms.
Everyone started to laugh as Cilan helped Misty move Ash off the field. Misty sat down next to his body while Pikachu started to poke him.
Momoko stepped forward after they all stopped laughing, "I think I'll go next."
Burgh nodded "All right, but after this I'll have to go to the Pokemon Center before I can do anymore gym battles."
Burgh then brought out another Whirlipede, while Momoko threw her pokeball "Come out, Tepig."
"A fire-type Pokemon, that's a nice choice to use against my bug-types. How about you make the first move," Burgh said with a smile and a wave of his hand.
"Tepig use flame charge and hit Whirlipede head on" Momoko said.
"Whirlipede use roll out to counter," Burgh said still smiling.
Tepig ran forward surrounded in fire while Whirlipede rolled forward. Neither Pokemon tried to dodge the other, but slammed head on knocking each other back.
"Tepig keep using flame charge," Momoko said with a grin.
Burgh sighed shaking his head "Whirlipede continue using roll out."
Tepig and Whirlipede continued to slam into each other, knocking themselves farther and farther back.
"This isn't good" Misty said with worry.
Peach looked at her "Why is that?"
"It's because of the move that Burgh using. Roll out gets more powerful the more it's used. If Burgh keeps this up Tepig will be knocked out before Whirlipede" Misty said with concern.
Just then Momoko smiled "Tepig dodge and use ember as Whirlipede goes by."
Tepig sidestepped Whilipede's attack and exhaled flaming sparks from its nose engulfing the other Pokemon in fire. When the flames dispersed Whirlipede fell on its side unconscious and Tepig began to glow.
Tepig's body grew taller as it started standing on its hind legs. Its body markings stayed the same except its forearms which were brown, brown stripes going from its lower body up and over its shoulders, it also had two yellow flame-like symbols on its sides, and its tail was still curly but thicker with a black fluff ball on the end.
"Ooh, I wonder what Tepig evolved into" Momoko said taking out her Pokedex "Pignite, the mega pig Pokemon. Whatever it eats becomes fuel for the flame in its stomach. When it is angered, the intensity of the flame increases. When its internal fire flares up, its movements grow sharper and faster. When in trouble, it emits smoke. New move learned arm thrust."
"A Pignite, guess I'll have to switch tactics then. Come out, Leavanny" Burgh said as he switched Pokemon "Leavanny use string shot to cover Pignite and the whole area."
"Pignite use flame charge to get close to Leavanny then use arm thrust," Momoko, said with a grin.
Leavanny opened its mouth shooting out a huge amount of string that started to spread over the whole area in front of it. Pignite stomped the ground a couple of times before launching forward covered in fire with its left arm cocked back ready to thrust forward. When Pignite got to Leavanny its left arm shot forward hitting Leavanny in the chest sending it backwards into a tree on the side of the battlefield unconscious.
Momoko was about to congratulate Pignite on its one hit knock out when she saw it fall down unconscious.
They both returned their Pokemon to their pokeballs. Burgh brought out Dwebble while Momoko brought out her Buizel.
Burgh raised his eyebrow "A Buizel, that's a rare Pokemon in this region. Since it's so rare I think I'm going to make the first move, Dwebble use dig."
"Buizel jump into the air and use aqua tail continuously," Momoko said anxiously.
Dwebble quickly went underground while Buizel jumped into the air sideways with its tails glowing blue. As Buizel was in the air it was spinning rapidly launching blue crescents at the ground where it had jumped. Buizel's attacks created a large dust cloud near the ground. When Buizel landed and the dust cleared everyone saw Dwebble unconscious next to the hole it would have used to attack Buizel.
Cilan smiled "Dwebble is unable to battle. The winner is Buizel."
Burgh walked over to Momoko putting his Pokemon away "Here's your badge for the victory. Now before we continue I'm going to have to get my Pokemon healed."
"We'll go with you" Misty said as she woke up Ash and then they all followed him out of his gym.
A/N: Next chapter will be the second half of the gym challenge. I hope you enjoyed my having everyone tease Ash about him being forced to marry Misty.
Starting next year I'm going to put up a poll for the Pokemon the girls will get. I'm doing this earlier than I wanted to due to the fact that no one has given me any more ideas for Pokemon to give them.
I still challenge any of you to write new Powerpuff Girls Z crossovers.
And lastly please review.
