Chapter 13: Croconaw Rock

There was a big celebration to celebrate the return of Slowpoke today, so the Gym was closed. That was fine honestly. There were games and food.

I remember playing throw the ring on the Slowpoke's tail (and winning myself a giant plush Charmander) when I noticed Silver.

I went over to him and asked if he was enjoying himself.

"What is a weakling like you doing here?" he asked.

That did it. I was going to beat this guy again.

"Ladies and Gentleman, it seems that a battle is going on!" said the party host. "Let's see who the winner is". A crowd quickly gathered round as the battled started.

Silver first sent out Gastly.

Gastly

058

Ghost/Poison Type

Gas Pokemon

4'03" (1.3 m)

0.2 lbs (0.1 kg)

It's thin body is made of gas. It can envelop an opponent of any size and cause suffocation.

I sent out Quilava. It used Ember straight away, burning Gastly in the process. Gastly used Lick paralyzing Quilava in the process. Gastly kept using Lick and Quilava kept using Ember, with Quilava coming out on top.

Next was Zubat. I switched out Quilava for Mareep which used Thunder Shock. This did a lot to Zubat. Zubat came back with Bite, but Mareep was clearly the victor here.

Finally, was Croconaw.

Croconaw

008

Water Type

Big Jaw Pokemon

55.1 lbs (25 kg)

If it loses a fang, a new one grows back in its place. There are always 48 fangs lining its mouth.

Evolved from Totodile at Lv 18.

It was very clear that he had evolved the Totodile which he stole. I kept Mareep out to use a Thunder Shock. This did a lot. Croconaw came back with a Water Gun. Mareep soaked it up and used Thunder Shock one more time. It was a Critical Hit and Croconaw was knocked out.

"I lost to a weakling" said Silver, clearly angry. "I don't think he is a weakling" said one of the crowd members. "Just look at his Mareep".

The crowd member was right. Mareep was starting to evolve! Once the glow had died down, in its place was a…

Flaaffy

054

Electric Type

Wool Pokémon

2'07" (0.8 m)

29.3 lbs (13.3 kg)

Its fluffy fleece easily stores electricity. Its rubbery hide keeps it from being electrocuted.

Evolved from Mareep at Lv 15.

I enjoyed the rest of the day. As the festival was winding down, the announcer came up. "As we end our festivities, I can confirm that the forecasters has said that the rains will return tomorrow evening! Do not miss it!"

I went to bed with a tummy ache from all the food at the party.
