The combination master chapter 2 route 1

Ah, Route One. A beginning road for all trainers from the Kanto region. A road surrounded by trees and grass, Caleb was walking along Route One with Akriloth walking next to him. Suddenly Caleb stopped and turned to Akriloth, "Ok Akriloth, the first Gym we are going to go up against is the Pewter City Gym which is a Rock based, and you know how I said I wanted to be a Combination Master right?" at Akriloth's nod Caleb continued, "So what we are going to do is work on your mastery of Metal Claw and Dragon Pulse before combining the two. So, let's work on Metal Claw First." Caleb then looked around a saw a thick tree, he then pointed to the tree trunk. "Alright first show me Metal Claw. Then use it on that tree." Caleb said

"Alright." Akriloth said in poke-speech as he showed his trainer Metal Claw, Akriloth's arm started to take on a metal sheen and his claws sharpened. He then rushed to the tree and slashed at it. The move left three deep gashes along the tree trunk. "Ok that was good but here's what we are going to do to master Metal Claw…first we are going to try and lessen the time it takes for the metal sheen and sharpened claws to appear. After we get that down to at least ten seconds then we can work on increasing the power and damage of the slashes. After we master Metal Claw, we are going to work on Dragon Pulse, ok?" Caleb said as Akriloth nodded

After working on Metal Claw for a couple of hours Caleb had Akriloth take a break. After resting and eating for thirty minutes Caleb and Akriloth started walking towards Viridian city. Along the way they were stopped by a small quadruped rodent-like Pokemon that had pinkish purple skin with darker spots, large spiny ears that were teal on the inside, oversized front teeth, and red eyes. Its back had three lines of large spines with the center line being the largest, it also had a horn on its forehead. Caleb took out his Pokedex and scanned the Pokemon. "Nidoran constantly listens for the sounds of approaching enemies with its large ears. Said ears have unique muscles that allow them to be moved in any direction, and even the slightest sound does not escape Nidoran's notice. In order to listen to distant locations, it flaps its ears like wings. When angry, it extends its toxic spikes and charges, stabbing with its horn to inject poison. This Nidoran is male."

"Hmm, a male Nidoran eh? Can this Pokedex tell me how many types of moves a Pokemon can learn?" Caleb muttered to himself as his Pokedex beeped "Affirmative male Nidoran can learn up to fourteen different types of moves."

"Hmm that's good, he would be good for me to add to my team. Alright Akriloth use Ember!" Caleb commanded as Akriloth shot a small stream of flames towards Nidoran who dodged and shot pinkish glowing spikes from its horn. "Crap that's Poison Sting! Akriloth block those needles with Metal Claw and if some of them get too close dodge!" Caleb commanded as Akriloth's arms took on a metal sheen while his claws sharpened themselves. As soon as the needles got close enough to be in range Akriloth started swiping his arms knocking the needles out of the air. "Akriloth take the energy of Ember and add it to Metal Claw. See if you can combine them!" Caleb commanded as Akriloth closed his eyes in concentration and looked deep inside for the energy of ember and redirected it to his arms inadvertently causing one of them to lose the Metal Claw effect while his other arm was engulfed in flames and metal.

"Alright! It worked! Now Akriloth wait for the right moment and use Molten Claw!" Caleb commanded…the Nidoran waited before charging forwards. Once he was close enough he came to a skidding stop turned around and kicked backwards with both of his legs which were glowing with the effects of Double Kick. Right before the move connected though Akriloth opened his eyes and with a swipe of his arm grabbed one of the Nidoran's legs and threw it to the side. As the Nidoran dizzily stood to its feet Akriloth charged forward and slashed at Nidoran with his flaming metallic claws knocking out the Nidoran. "Alright its knocked out, now's my chance!" Caleb said as he primed a Pokeball, "Pokeball go!" Caleb threw the Pokeball towards the Nidoran. It hit the Nidoran and sucked it inside, it shook…once…twice…three times…before dinging with stars appearing around the ball. "Alright We caught Nidoran!" Caleb and Akriloth cheered, Akriloth however collapsed and fainted. "Oh no Akriloth! Let's get you to a Pokémon center right away, Akriloth return!" Caleb said as he pulled out Akriloth's Pokeball while a red light shot out of the center and engulfed Akriloth before pulling him inside. "Luckily Viridian city is only a thirty-minute run from here."
