Well guys, we're only 2 chapters in but I feel a ton of new plots for this story coming on, so let's get right into it.

What could be in this egg? Charlie was warming it up with its embers. It's been a week since that whole hunter thing and I still can't get this thing to hatch, "Charlie, come on we're heading out" I called. Charlie was eager to leave the house and I grabbed both his and Tug's pokeball, plus another couple Great balls. I was going to have another member of the family.

We were entering the forest nearby when the detector on my gauntlet started buzzing, signaling a Pokémon in the area. However I've never felt this particular pattern before, it was unique to say the least. Checking my radar, there was a rare Pokémon about 50 meters south of me, and so I ran to check it out. When I go to the location I found a small lake, and a shiny Esspur.

It was beautiful, pink fur and eyes the color of a pink rose. Now I'm not exactly a "pink" type of guy. But I got to admit, that Pokémon was MINE. I threw out Charlie and told it to use bite on the Espurr. It made contact and Charlie kept going, fighting with all it's got even against a weaker opponent, just like any Houndour should. When Spur dodged one of Houndour's bites, I thought it was beginners luck, however it reared back and attacked Charlie with a powerful Fairy Wind. Charlie got hit pretty badly and I threw out Tug to cover for him while I tended to the poor dog's wounds. While spraying Charlie with the Super Potion, I noticed the Espurr fire a powerful psybeam, Tug sidestepped only because it was his instinct, no other Pokémon could dodge something like that. Tug then followed up with an attack I had never seen before from him, while neighing an admittedly awesome "BLITZLEEEEEEEEE" he charged at Espurr with all of his force, then became enveloped in flame Tug learned flame charge I realized as I saw Espurr being sent flying into the lake. I returned both Pokémon to their respective balls and threw out a Great Ball at the weakened Espurr. VROOM, VROOM, VROOM, CLICK the catch was successful. I caught my first shiny.

As I headed home, thinking of a good name for Espurr when I saw a note stuck to my door reading hello, this is Nurse Joy, There's an issue here that I would like your help in, please meet me in the Pokémon Center tomorrow around noonish, please help, I don't want anyone to read this any become suspicious so I'll tell you everything tomorrow.

I went inside and read the note over again and considered the possibility of needing back-up, but forgot it quickly and just told myself to check once I understood the problem. I threw out Espurr's new Pokeball, and when it came out I knelt down and said softly "hello little fella' you ok?" the Espurr nodded briefly before I looked for specifics about this Espurr. I discovered it was female, and currently possessed the moves psybeam, glare, confuse ray and, fairy wind and had the Hidden ability Own Tempo. "Well ma' lady " I commented "it seems I have got quite the amazing Pokémon on my hands don't I?" I asked to know one in particular. I took out the other's pokeball and said "I need to think about something alright, you two show Espurr around." What was I thinking about , you might ask, well I was thinking about why Nurse Joy didn't just ask to see me, all Pokémon League officers, which included Nurse Joys and Officer Jenny's , had access to Ranger Gauntlets. So I was pretty stumped, but I thought some shut-eye would help me think, and so I closed my eyes.

THE NEXT MORNING
I met Nurse Joy in the small meeting room behind the main Pokémon center entrance. When I entered she pulled me into a hug and said very quickly "thank you thank you" I returned the embrace and asked "what's going on?" Joy took a breath and went on " there's this kid named Drake who's been challenging anyone who gets close to the Pokémon Center saying its ' his turf.' He's locked me in here and made sure I heal his Pokémon after every match, I don't know how you got in, but yak got to help me, I tried battling him with Wigglytuff and he, and he " she started breaking out into sobs, I tried to comfort her and I asked " is that what he's been doing to all the Trainers who he beats?" She nodded and I clenched my fists that little, taking away people's Pokémon, their friends, their partners. I let go and went outside saying "be back with a ton of stolen Pokémon.

When I rounded the entrance, I saw this Drake kid spray painting the Pokémon Center's window with "DO NOT ENTER" I walked up to him and he started talking like a thug "what are you doing here?" I pulled out my badge and said calmly "please stop what you're doing and return the Pokémon you have stolen" he scoffed and got out a Pokeball saying "ok then, 1 v 1 with my new Pokémon, this stupid old Riolu should be enough." And threw out a Luxury ball containing a Riolu with a banana, the bandana having a black rose on it. "Well ya see Drake, I happen to have a Pokémon who just so happens to be a Psychic type, SO LET'S GO ESPURR!" I cried while throwing out Espurr's Pokeball. Espurr came out with a shrill cry and got into its battle position, those eyes shining with some sort of surrealness to them. "RIOLU SUCKER PUNCH" Drake commanded as Riolu was hesitant, but what Drake did next confirmed that this punk was going to jail. He pulled out a gun and shot the bandana so that it tore a hole right next to Riolu saying with a cold tone "remember what happened last time you disobeyed me, you're my Pokémon now so I expect proof that you know this." It seemed so well rehearsed that he must have had to have done it before. Riolu then out of fear charged at Espurr and reared its fist, which was glowing with a dark aura. "ESPURR, DODGE" I told her and she spun around with incredible speed, forming a pirouette around the Riolu, throwing it off its balance "now FAIRY WIND" Espurr nodded and a might gust of wind formed, causing Riolu to get thrown back by its supereffective properties. Riolu got up only to hear Drake yelling at it "IT'S A FAIRY TYPE, USE POISON JAB!" Riolu knew he was fighting a psychic type but didn't want his master to get angry. SO he launched his attack. Espurr seemed to know that I was about to say "use glare "and turned around to face Riolu. Those eyes causing fear and panic in the young Pokémon's eyes. "NOW USE PSYBEAM!" Espurr complied quickly and fired a blast of psychic energy, landing directly into the bandana, causing it to fly off. The rose part being split from the rest of the fabric, floating down before Espurr's feet. I thought the Riolu was defeated but then saw a mach punch being thrown and hitting Espurr right in the gut. Espurr sprawled on the floor, trying to stand up when Riolu seemed like it was about to throw a shadow punch, and Espurr tried to use a confuse ray to counter it, but the two Ghost type attacks clashed in a small blast, and both Pokémon were knocked away, Riolu getting up first and preparing to use what looked like a Power-up punch. Espurr was barely able to get up when the attack made contact, just sending him into the floor once again. Espurr was on its last legs, and Riolu looked like he was about to use another Sucker Punch. "No" I said "you're going DOWN!" I shouted with as much force as I could muster. "ESPURR USE GLARE" Espurr managed to get up in time to attack, stunning Riolu "PSYBEAM!" Espurr obeyed and instantly a blast of mental power was shot directly at the Riolu. I braced myself for it to get back up, but it never did. Riolu has fainted.

Drake then ran over to the Riolu and pulled out some sort of syringe. When he injected the fluid Riolu got back up and looked much stronger. "NOW RIOLU USE DYNAMIC PUNCH, CRUSH HIM CRUSH THEM ALL!" Riolu clenched its fist and I could see the energy emanating from it. When he made a punch, however it wasn't at Espurr or even me, it was on Drake. Drake was sent into the dirt and pulled out the gun and shot at the Riolu, however he pulled up a Protect just in time. Drake was out of ammo and helpless, I went over and pulled out the Ranger's crest saying "you're under arrest for theft, illicit drug use, and Pokémon abusive behavior," and snapped some cuffs on him. I then took off the belt with what seemed like at least 4 dozen Pokeballs, and it also had his PC information, so I could get the remaining Pokémon he surely has.

3 DAYS LATER
To ensure everyone got the right Pokémon, we put up a small stand with everyone's Pokémon to give them to their rightful owners, and we so far only had one guy try to take any so it seemed pretty good. I had my Pokémon for company so all was well .Then one girl came in asking for a Riolu. I smiled and gave her the Pokeball "I had to fight this one ya know, you got a very strong Pokémon, so may I ask what your name is?" she smiled and said "thank you, I did try to train him well, oh and my name is Caroline" she then threw up Riolu's Pokeball saying "come on out Riolu" the Pokémon came out and hugged its master, then Caroline asked "where's your bandana?" I got a little upset and said "it was damaged in the battle, so I hope this is compensation" and I gave her the one I knit myself (all Ranger's learn basic skills such as knitting, blacksmithing, cooking etc.) She then squealed with joy and put it immediately on Riolu, it was a perfect fit. I smiled to myself as Caroline looked at her new equipment " the violet looks so nice and smooth " I then raised my eyebrows a little and said to myself " well I thought it was a rose" at that Espurr seemed to perk up and walk towards me " ok then Rose, how does that sound for a nickname?" She nodded and it was settled. Rose the Espurr was a new member of our small little family I might need to build an extra room, or house I mused.
