Chapter 81: Magmar Opus
With my 5th Badge in hand, it was time to head through Mt Moon. I guess my next challenge would be in Fuchsia City. However, I had something on my mind.
On Route 3, I saw a FireBreather performing tricks for a bunch of people. He was with what looked like a red and yellow Pokémon with a bill.
Magmar
151
Fire Type
Spitfire Pokémon
4'03" (1.3 m)
98.1 lbs (44.5 kg)
It dislikes cold places, so it blows scorching flames to make the environment suitable for itself.
Evolved from the Baby Pokémon Magby at Lv 30.
"Thank you for the show!" he said, bowing as everyone clapped. He eyed me. "Well, it looks like we have a volunteer." He ran over and grabbed my arm. "Oh look, it's the Champion!" Everyone gave an "ooohhh".
"I don't suppose you know who I am. I am the one, the only, the famous, Firebreather Otis!" Famous? I had never heard of him. "You don't know me?!" he asked, shocked. "I didn't either" said a man from the audience. "Me neither" a woman called out. "Me three!" said a young girl. "Well okay maybe I'm not exactly famous" he told me. "But I am talented!"
He put me on a pedestal. "Okay Magmar, use your FirePunch!" Magmar used FirePunch around the pedestal and a ring of fire came up around me. I was getting concerned. "Now. When the fire goes out, the Champion will have disappeared!"
The flames were getting larger. I was getting concerned. "Oh no. My trick has gone wrong!" Otis shouted. He started panicking and got some water. He tipped it over the fire and put out the flames. "Sorry about that" he said.
At that point, two police cars pulled up and four Officers, two males and two females. came out, two from each. "Otis, your tricks are up!" said one of the female ones. They came up to him and cuffed him. "That was your final warning about that trick. It could get someone very hurt. You're coming with us."
With that, they took him away.
What a weird day.
