I do not own pokemon or any reference I may make, they belong to their respective owners.
Characters are based of me and my friends with a few twists.
Author's Note: To those who ask, no the pokemon do not talk and the humans do not understand them, I, the author, am only translating what they are saying.
"Here we are" Jon stated.
We were standing in front of an old Japanese style mansion.
"So do we knock or what?" I asked.
Just then the door opened and Janine came out, wearing a ninja uniform.
"Um, what are you doing at the house, the gym is that way" she pointed left of the house, where another Japanese style building was at.
"Oh let's go"
We walked towards the building, Jon and Salem telling me what to expect and that I would have to go through some maze before battling Koga himself.
"Finally you have arrived" a voice from nowhere called. A cloud of smoke appeared out in front of us and Koga emerged from it.
"I'm sure that these two have told you what you must do before you can face me" I nodded. "Well then you may begin." The doors opened.
"Also one more thing" Koga faced Janine. "I want you to go with them, it will help improve your skills." She nodded and followed us in.
As the sounds of closing doors were heard, we knew that our journey had begun. We walked from room to room, encountering new obstacles, each area having pokemon to block our way. We walked for a while and Janine and the others started to complain about me leading them in circles.
"I swear we were just here" Salem said, Janine and Jon nodding in agreement.
"I don't think so" I said "And I would know, I have a pornographic memory"
"Don't you mean photographic?"
"No I don't" My face completely serious.
Nothing, but awkwardness fill the air, as we continued through the maze for what seemed to be hours, until we finally reached Koga.
"It took you quite a while to reach me" was how he greeted us.
"The maze was big"
"It really isn't, but that does not matter now. Now we may have our battle" he pulled out a pokeball. "Three pokemon each, go."
He released his pokemon, which was a giant pile of slime, Muk. Having talked this over with Jon and Salem the night before, I was prepared and sent out Konata. She didn't look too enthusiastic about it though.
'Another one of these…oh well a fight's a fight'
"Let's start"
Both pokemon charged towards each other, their fists raised to strike. Throwing their fists forward they collided, but Konata's fist looked more like it was absorbed into Muk's.
"Shit, pull out and get back"
Konata was able to her hand out and jump back in an attempt to make some distance, but Koga had other plans.
"Now Sludge Bomb"
Muk opened its mouth and fired a ball of purple ooze, hitting Konata in the chest and causing her to fall on her back. She slowly got back to her feet.
"Now Mud Shot"
"Psychic and throw it back" I quickly came up.
Muk opened its mouth again and fired a ball of mud. It flew close to Konata, but stopped before impact by Konata's Psychic.
'Return to sender' she said before throwing it back at Muk.
Koga seemed unaffected after seeing that.
"Not bad, now use Gunk Shot"
Muk made this sound like he was going to spit before firing garbage from his mouth.
"Quick dodge" but Konata was not fast enough and was hit and thrown back. She laid down for a bit, and then slowly pushed herself up, looking exhausted.
"Use Hypnosis" Her eyes shined and she sent waves of energy at Muk. Muk's eyes slowly began to close until it slumped onto the ground, asleep.
"Now Dream Eater"
A blue light surrounded Muk's body as its face distorted in pain, while Konata looked more rejuvenated.
"Now Psychic"
Finishing the last attack, the same blue light covered Muk's body and it was lifted in the air and then slammed back into the ground. Although the attack hit, the impact seemed to have awaken Muk as its eye's opened.
"Quick another Psychic" I ordered.
"Now Acid Armor"
Konata's attack missed as Muk's body dissolved into a puddle of slime. The puddle then began to move towards Konata.
"Quick try anything" I yelled in panic. My face was worried and confused, Konata's as well.
The puddle of slime stopped in front of Konata and reformed into Muk.
"Now Explosion" Koga ordered in a dead tone. My eye's widened in fear as Muk's body glowed.
"Oh Sh-" was all I could manage before Muk exploded and the sound of the attack covered my voice. I was almost blown back by the force of the explosion. When the smoke finally cleared, Muk was unconscious in the small crater it created, while Konata was on the other side of the field, bruised all over. Koga remained claim as he returned his pokemon and then pulled out another pokeball.
"Hey Koga" Jon called out. "I wouldn't use the pokemon your about to send out on him"
"And why not?" he questioned.
"It'd be best to trust us" Salem advised.
"Obviously a trick" he said in distrust. "Go" he tossed his pokeball and summoned a blue bat, with two legs and a big mouth.
"Now u-" he tried a command before being interrupted by his pokemon being thrown into the wall by an incredible force without a warning. Koga looked in awe at what had just happened, then at me, noticing the blank expression on my face, Konata standing back at my side.
"Hm, seemed I should have trusted your friends…oh well"
The smoked cleared and Golbat was struggling to get up.
"Another Psychic", I said in a monotone voice.
"Dodge and the Bite"
Golbat quickly took flight as the spot it had been was just compressed by the psychic force. It then flew behind Konata and sunk its fangs into her and then backed away just as Konata collapsed.
"You did well, go Yoruichi" I returned Konata and sent out the hyper Eevee. He bounced side to side.
"Wing Attack" "Quick Attack"
Golbat flew towards Yoruichi and tried to swipe him with its wing, only for Yoruichi to jump over the wing and struck Golbat in its face, if there's anywhere else to hit.
'Too slow' he taunted.
"Poison Fang"
Golbat flew forward again, fangs baring and seeping with poison.
"Dodge and Take Down"
Once again Yoruichi leapt over Golbat faster then it could strike and as soon as he landed he pushed back and charged at a quick pace at Golbat's back. The attack hit and Golbat tumbled forward, but Yoruichi seemed to recoil from the impact of his attack.
"Air Slash"
Golbat whirled around and fired a blade of air, which threw Yoruichi back.
"Tsk, was hoping for a no hit knock out" I said with a disappointed look. "Quick Attack and Bite"
Yoruichi tackled Golbat at a high speed, then he bit its wing and span around throwing Golbat to the floor, finishing it.
"You are good, but let's see how you fair against my next pokemon" he released his last pokemon, which was this pink, bug eyed moth: a Venomoth.
"Use Poison Powder"
Venomoth's wings flapped hard and a purple cloud fell from them. Yoruichi run away from the powder, but Koga ordered a Gust, which sent the powder all around the field, poisoning Yoruichi.
"Damn need to work fast" my face filled with concern hearing my pokemon cough. "Quick Attack"
"Blow it back with Gust"
Venomoth's wings began flapping quickly and pushed Yoruichi back before he could make contact.
"Now Bug Buzz"
Its wings seemed to flap again, but I couldn't tell. All of the sudden a loud ear piercing noise was going throughout the gym, I had no choice but to cover my ears in pain, same with everyone else.
"Take Down" I tried yelling, but I could barely hear my own voice. The next thing I knew was that Yoruichi had landed in front of me and the sound had stopped, thank god. I returned my pokemon and sent out my last, Rena.
"Interesting" Koga said, intrigued like everyone else. "Stun Spore"
"Aqua Jet"
Venomoth released another cloud of powder, but Rena blasted right through it, the water protecting her from it and striking Venomoth.
"Now Mud Shot"
Rena fired a stream of mud, propelling her towards the ground.
"Psychic"
Venomoth's eyes glowed as a familiar blue light surrounded Rena before she touched the ground, then she was slammed into it.
"Bug Buzz again"
I covered my ears again as that painful sound filled the room. "Damn I can't even hear myself think, oh wait I can" I noticed that it didn't bother Rena much. "Probably cause she's part rock, wait what" I thought as I saw rocks floating around Rena, before flying at Venomoth.
The attack stopped when the rocks made contact. I viewed my pokedex and noticed Rena had learned Ancient Power.
"Psychic"
"Counter with Ancient Power"
Rena was picked up into the air, but she was still able to summon a few boulders, which she hurled at Venomoth. Venomoth's hold on Rena was released as one of its wings was pinned by a boulder.
"Quick, remove it with Psychic"
"Finish it with Aqua Jet!" I yelled enthusiastically.
'You're finished'
Just as soon as Venomoth removed the boulder, it was rammed by a water coated Rena, knocking it out.
"Yeah, we won!"
"Congrats!" my friends on the side line yelled out.
"You have proven yourself worthy. Here is your badge."
I gratefully accepted.
"Well, we better get going" we turned to the exit.
"Wait!" Janine yelled. "Will you be back?"
"Yeah, we'll probably be back" I said.
"Good, cause I wanna battle you next, ya hear" she said enthusiastically.
"Wow you loosened up"
"Janine, why are you talking like that?" Koga questioned, with a slight hint of anger.
"Let her be man, they ain't no harm"
Wrong thing to say, as he pulled out a kunai.
"In one day you have undone what I have thought her" he walked towards me.
"Oh crap, well she's still a ninja"
"You have ten seconds"
"Shit"
We ran, ran away very fast.
Okay I need to update faster, my apologies.
Anyways I got another gym badge and Rena finally learned a rock type attack.
Now it's time for another state the reference in the chapter, winner gets a shout out.
Please review.
