Chapter 3: Blastoise Rumble

Location: Viridian Forest: Log Cabin: Day

Roy and Scy walked outside to see Lucas and Kryztal talking next to a gigantic pool.

"And then she jumps out of nowhere and lands on Gyarados' back." Lucas was moving his hands while he told the story.

The two of them laughed until they noticed Roy and Scy walking up to them. "Roy, Lucas just told me about his mom, she is the Cerulean Gym leader."

Lucas got up, "So how about a swim?" he said, he took of his white robe to reveal his blue swimsuit underneath it, and jumped in.

"Wait, his mother is the Cerulean Gym Leader?" Roy asked.

Lucas popped his head up from beneath the water. "What of it?"

"Then let's have us a battle."

Garvis stood at the side of an arena in his suit and tie. "This will be a one on one Pokémon battle, the first who cannot continue will lose, Master Lucas who will be you're Pokémon?" Lucas grabbed a pokéball from his pocket.

"I choose, Blastoise." Lucas threw the pokéball and it opened up to reveal the giant shellfish Pokémon. The blue Pokémon stood up on his two legs and two cannons revealed themselves from his shoulders.

Garvis nodded his head, "Young Sir, what will you're Pokémon be for this battle?"

"Scy, you're up." Roy said pointing to the field. Scy jumped into the middle of the field and prepared himself into the same battle stance as before; both claws open, right leg slightly back and glaring at Blastoise.

Garvis nodded his head, "Okay then, and begin!"

"Blastoise Rapid Spin, go!" Lucas yelled, Blastoise pulled in his cannons, arms and legs along with his head and started spinning. "Now use Hydro Pump." The two cannons popped out and water gushed out from them.

"Scy sky high, go." Roy said pointing upwards. Scy opened up his wings and took off like a rocket, jumping straight into the air, "Alright Scy, Bullet Punch." Scy pointed himself at Blastoise and threw his fist at the spinning Shellfish. The two clashed, while Blastoise withstood the attack and kept spinning, Scy's claw flew out from underneath him and sent him flying into the mud. The Blastoise stopped spinning and stood up. "Blastoise Ice Beam." Blastoise lowered his cannons and fired two cyan colored electric like beams at Scy, freezing anything it touched. "Scy dodge it quick!" Scy rolled onto his front and pushed off the ground. While he was in the air he opened his wings and glided behind Blastoise. "Scy Bullet Punch!" Scy flew towards Blastoise, claw glowing white.

"That move gets old quick. Blastoise Dodge, then use ice beam." Blastoise got down onto all four and fired his twin cannons at the overlapping foe. Hitting Scy in the wings, he fell down onto his stomach.

"Scy, quick get up!" Roy yelled swinging his arm across his chest. Scy slowly got up. Turning around and glaring at Blastoise. "Scy, Quick Attack." Scy got down onto one claw, sprinting forward he then fell forward onto his face. "The ice, Scy, you have to break the ice."

"Blastoise, finish it up with, Hydro Pump!" Blastoise stood onto his hind legs, aimed his cannons, and fired. The water flew out of them, Scy turned and faced Blastoise. The attack hit Scy square in the face knocking him off of his feet; the force of the attack broke the Ice surrounding his wings. Scy fell onto his back, knocked out. "Scy is unable to battle; Blastoise and the young master have won." Garvis said before turning around and walking inside. Roy ran up to Scy, "Scy are you alright?" Scy slowly sat up shaking his head. "Come-on you giant tin can, I can't carry you."

"Wow, bummer dude," Lucas walked across the battlefield, Blastoise close behind him. "Blastoise, good job, now return." He said while holding up a pokéball. A red beam of light came out and hit the Giant Shellfish Pokémon, bringing him into the pokéball. "So how long do you guys want to stay here for?"

"We can't stay for long; Roy has to get to Pallet Town to go see Professor Oak."

"Oh, I understand, can't have you staying here for too long then." Lucas reached up and scratched the back of his head. "I can walk you guys to the edge of the forest but I have to come back here to continue training."

"What are you training for?" Kryztal asked.

"It's the Pokémon World Race,"

"What's a, Pokémon World Race?"

"It consists of three teams from every region, the three teams have to go and get as many gym badges as possible within a year all across the world. There are individual challenges as well testing the bond between Pokémon and trainer."

"Well thanks for showing us a good time." Kryztal said holding out her hand.

Lucas took it and shook, "Yeah no problem. Well, see you guys around." Lucas walked back into the forest and disappeared.

"Does anyone see me?!" Roy yelled.
