[Author's Note:] Happy Friday everyone! Sorry about not giving an update last Friday, the internet at my school gave out. So, in order to appease your insaitiable appetite for story, today is a double update! Check out Halo Weapons Mod for the next chapter. Now, before I continue with this fan fiction, let me make something clear: yes, the Pokemon can talk. Believe me, the Pokemon being able to talk is very important to the story; if they couldn't talk, this story would be extremely hard to describe, and extremely boring to read.


"Experiment 09 is making his way to Vermillion City. I suspect that the gym challenge will be no match for him." Oak put down the pencil. Suddenly, a sharp ring from the nearby phone resonated throughout the lab. Oak promptly picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hello, Oak."

The Professor's expression instantly turned dark. "Oh…hi…" Oak said as he gulped nervously.

"I trust that the experiment is going well?"

"Oh-Oh yes sir! I think I've managed to-"

"Spare me the details. Listen Oak, I'm getting tired of your failures. So, if this next experiment is a failure, I'm sending my boys to come and 'relieve you of your duties.' Understand?"

"*gulp* Y-y-yes sir."

The person on the other end hung up. Oak stood at the phone with an expression of fear in his eyes.


"Again."

Kadabra began teleporting swiftly all around Wartortle on board the S.S. Anne. Wartortle tried to keep up with the teleporting Pokemon, and began shooting a Water Gun, but hit nothing but air.

"No no no! If you want to be able to defeat Lt. Surge, we need to be faster than this! His Pokemon are ten times as fast as you weaklings! Now, run it again!"

Wartortle and Kadabra both looked to Gary nervously. "But, Gary," Wartortle began to say, "I'm a Water type. You're really putting me into a battle with Electric type Pokemon?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize this was amateur hour!" Gary shouted at his Pokemon. "If we're going to have any chance of beating the next gym, and the gym after that, we need more training! Now, RUN THE EXERCISE AGAIN!"

Pidgeotto and Raticate looked to each other as they stood behind Gary with expressions of nervousness. Kadabra began teleporting again, and was hit by a Water Gun square in the chest.


Pixel had defeated all of the trainers along Route 6 in his earlier training with his Pokemon. By this point, all of his Pokemon were around level 20, and Rampage had been taught Dig.

"So, what's the plan for this next gym battle?" Flambo asked as the team walked into Vermillion City.

"Well, since Rampage knows Dig now, I think I'll lead with-" Pixel stopped mid-sentence as he came to where the entrance was supposed to be to the Vermillion gym. Instead, a small tree obscured Pixel's passage to the gym. "Well, crap. I guess we need to get Cut."

"Huh? But it's so tiny?" Sheila said with confusion. Flambo began to barrage the tree with Ember, but the tree remained completely intact.

"Okay, that defies logic," Flambo said angrily as Pixel began walking away.

"Whatever, we need to do some training anyway," Pixel said as he began walking towards Route 11.
