Sorry for the late update, I was playing my dad's bass.
I figure I should explain why Rotom and Phione weren't in last chapter. Rotom isn't classified as a legendary Pokémon, officially. As much as I like to think it is, it really isn't. Also, Phione is the result of breeding Manaphy and Ditto. I'd assume Manaphy wouldn't just breed randomly with a Ditto out in the wild, so Phione isn't in existence yet.
Disclaimer: Pokémon, along with any people, places or things from it are not mine, nor do I claim it to be. The only thing I do own is myself and the dream this all started from.
It bugged me that I had woken up before the realization of who Arceus' voice sounded like could fully hit me. Now I couldn't remember the voice well enough to place it.
I finished taking my tent down and packing it into the bag it had come in. Once it was packed away I swung my bag over my shoulder and continued walking along Route 3.
"Wait a second," I stopped to think for a second, "I haven't eaten it twenty-four hours. Shouldn't I be hungry?"
It was strange. A whole day had passed and I hadn't felt the need to eat. I was confused, but by now I was getting used to the strange things that happened here, so I continued walking.
Over to the west of my campsite a girl was pacing. I made my way over in her direction, "Hello," I said to her as I approached her.
"Eek! Did you touch me?" she squealed in disgust.
"Um, no," I replied, "Are you, by chance, called a lass?"
It turned out she was, Lass Robin. She battled me with her one Pokémon, which was a level 14 Jigglypuff. I was suddenly glad I had bought an Awakening.
I didn't need the Awakening though, the battle was an easy one, all the Jigglypuff did was use Pound. Bulbasaur easily took it out and gained a level. I decided to teach Bulbasaur Poisonpowder, getting rid of the move Growl. I declined the option to teach Bulbasaur Sleep Powder.
Continuing in the same direction I encountered youngster after a while. He told me that the tunnel from Cerulean takes a lot of energy to go through. I thanked him for the information and continued my journey, this time to the north.
Eventually I made it on to Route 4, which was a hill. At the top of the hill I found a Pokémon Center. I entered it, healed my Pokémon and decided to ask some people about Mt. Moon.
The first person I talked to told me that Mt. Moon was long, and then went on about how you could only carry six Pokémon at a time. I also talked to a youngster who told me things equally basic.
I then walked over to a man sitting at the table. He was mumbling to himself, something about attacks and Cerulean.
"Um, hello Sir," I greeted him, "Do you know anything about how long it'll take to go through Mt. Moon?"
"Yes," he said, snapping out of his mumbling, "It'll take about a day to get through it. If you're lucky you may make it to Cerulean by night fall. Watch out though," he told me, "I've heard that there Team Rocket members in Mt. Moon and Cerulean City."
"That's not good," I replied, "I'll be sure to be careful!"
The last person I talked to in the Pokémon Center was creepy, "Hello there, sweetie pie!" he greeted me.
"Um...hello," I replied uncomfortably.
"Have I got a deal just for you!" he continued, "I'll let you have a secret Pokémon - a Magikarp - for just 500 dollars! So you'll buy it, am I right?"
I stared at him for a second before bursting out laughing, "Are...you...kidding?" I asked between fits of laughter, "A Magikarp? I can get a fishing rod for free and catch nothing but Magikarps later. No thanks." I left the PokéCenter, still laughing hysterically.
I walked over towards the mouth of the cave, "Maybe I won't take the advice of that man," I mused, "I should try and defeat team rocket if they're in here and Red hasn't taken care of them."
After spraying a repel I walked over to the west first and battled Kent, a bug catcher who thought I looked like a suspicious man. I wiped the floor with him and his level 11 Weedle and Kakuna. Then I walked around and picked up a Parlyz Heal and the TM for Bullet Seed.
I then walked back toward, and then past the entrance and ran into Lass Iris who used a level 14 Clefairy, which was nothing for Spearow, I just had to use my Awakening and heal afterward.
Eventually, after following a northern path I came across a ladder, which I decided to climb down. This led me to a pathway to another ladder, which I also climbed down.
As soon as I reached the bottom a voice startled me, "We, Team Rocket, are Pokémon gangsters! We strike fear with our strength!"
"More like with your startling skills!" I replied, "Give me a heart attack, why don't you?" My watch heated up and I was launched into a battle with this Team Rocket grunt.
I figured, since Team Rocket was a gang, they would have some tough Pokémon. Boy was I wrong. All that this grunt used were level 11 Pokémon, a Sandshrew, a Rattata, and a Zubat. The battle did make Spearow grow to level 15 and Bulbasaur grow to level 16.
After the battle, before I put Bulbasaur back into his Pokéball he started glowing. I watched as his shape changed. He grew and the bulb on his back opened, revealing a closed flower. Bulbasaur had evolved into Ivysaur!
I hugged Ivysaur, "You evolved!" I said.
"Ivy," he replied proudly.
I had him return, and then turned back to where the grunt had been standing. He had run away, I could hear him climbing the ladder before I looked up at him, "Coward," I called before exploring the cave I was in.
There was a raised up part of the floor. I climbed up and picked up an item, which was a Star Piece. I then climbed up the ladder, the grunt long gone. When back on the main floor I headed south, and battled Jovan, a super nerd, who had a level 11 Magnemite and Voltorb, which Ivysaur took care of quickly.
I picked up a Potion then went north on a different path, which led me to a Rare Candy and a trainer, Bug Catcher Robby who battled with two level 10 Caterpies and a level 10 Metapod. Spearow had no trouble with these Pokémon. I then, seeing the item, went around to pick up an Escape Rope.
Heading north, I saw another person; he was facing a pile of rocks. He told me that he was looking for fossils, so I decided I would leave him alone.
I continued following the path and ran into a lass, Miriam, running in circles. I battled her, Spearow easily take out her level 11 Oddish and Bellsprout. Spearow grew to level 16 at the end of the battle.
