"Alright after that battle, you're a big help Johnathon~" "Thanks Denise!"
After Denise's battle vs Brock, Denise went to the forest with Johnathon not in a pokeball since he isn't really a wild pokemon.
"Another trainer, and a mudkip?I should attack now. Leaf Storm!" a bulbasaur with a ribbon attacked them.
"What the-?!" "No Johnathon!"
Denise shield Johnathon like she did when misdreavus and murkrow attacks toward charmander,But this time she didn't faint.
"(A bulbasaur?)Why did you do that?" Denise asked the bulbasaur.
"You protected your own pokemon?!" She said and with surprise, sppoke like Johnathon.
"Wait, you speak like me and you have a ribbon with you almost like me but its a bandanna and it's around my neck..." The mudkip said.
"Wait so are you her pokemon?" The grass type asked.
"Me? Nope I'm not even a wild pokemon so no one can catch me." Johnathon explained.
"You are really like me..."
"... What's your name?" Denise asked.
"I'm Sarah, your's?"
"I'm Denise and this is Johnathon my partner in an exploration team but you pro-"
"With Guildmaster Wigglytuff and Chatot ,Bidoof ,Loudrend ,Sunflora ,Chimecho ,Diglett ,Dugtrio ,Crogunk and a partner with you..."
Sarah starts to cry.
"I've been looking all over this region to find my partner but it was no use he wasn't anywhere here... Aura..."
"(A-aura!?) Hey don't cry if he really isn't here then you can come with me and together we can find Aura okay Sarah?"
With that Sarah look at Denise, seeing that she was smiling and then Sarah's tears stop... "Re-really Denise?"
"Of course she says it she means it!" Johnathon said.
"Thank you..Both of you."
