Sorry I know this is a short chapter but I couldn't think of anything to add on to this at the moment. It may be a little while till I update again because I'm going to vacation next week and I have classes to go to (Even though it is summer) Please review!

Chapter 3

Viridian forest was nothing like Piper thought it would be that being like the small forest between Pallet and Viridian. It was mostly large and small trees all had only one path that didn't lead to a dead end. But none of that really bothered her; the thing that did was the fact that it was really hot and humid, two things she really hated.

She had heard from Ash that there were a lot of neat pokemon, and Gary had told her that it would take no more than three days to go though and that's if you followed the path. Which she wasn't, she had to catch Pikachu and she didn't see that happening if she took the path.

She found a lot of wild pokemon, but no Pikachu. There had been a cute Caterpie and she had hoped to catch but it got away. Over the last two days she had run into a lot of other trainers while searching the forest; and it was also a first for her to fight three trainers that specializes in one type of pokemon, she had thought that only gym leaders did that. Now that she thought about it, it was kind of stupid to think that.

Speaking of trainers here comes one now. So far all of the trainers in this forest have been boys; she wished she would run into at least one girl. (Not very good at writing about the pokemon battles so sorry if they suck)

"Hi my names Dane from Pewter city, and I want to have a pokemon battle." He was another bug catcher you could tell by the net on his back.

"Sure, a two on two battle ok?" Really she just wanted to find a Pikachu but she also wanted her pokemon to get a lot of experience before their gym battle in Pewter.

"Fine by me." He shrugged and throws out a poke'ball. Out came a Kakuna. Surprise. Surprise.

"A Kakuna huh, ok go Pidgey." She throw her poke'ball as well, she hoped Pidgey could take both pokemon down. She wanted it to evolve before they got to Pewter city.

"Pidg." The little bird pokemon looked strong and ready to fight.

"Gust attack Pidgey!"

"Harden Kakuna!" Kakuna hardened before gust hit but it was only the first harden and Kakuna still took a significant amount of damage.

"Gust again Pidgey." This time the attack hit at full force and Kakuna went down.

"No Kakuna!" Dane recalled his pokemon and glaring at her before throwing out another poke'ball. "Let's do it Beedrill!"

"Wow a Beedrill didn't expect that. That's okay we can take them Pidgey."

"Pidge." Pidgey nodded without taking its eye's off the Beedrill. Ever sense the incident with Logan's Pidgeotto Pidgey hadn't been battling as hard as it could. She had her own opinion about that; she was almost a 100% sure that her Pidgey had a thing for Logan's Pidgeotto, and thought that Pidgey was trying to get stronger and evolve so that maybe Pidgeotto would pay attention to her. She didn't like it but she would support her pokemon in anything they choose.

"Start off with your quick attack Pidgey."

"Dodge it and use your twineedle attack."

"Use quick attack to dodge and come up behind and use gust." Pidgey was fast and pulled off her instructions perfectly, hitting Beedrill hard enough to send it to the ground were it struggled a minute before it got back into the air. She looked over at Pidgey to make sure that it was okay, only to see the she was glowing. "Pidgey?" she couldn't believe what was happening; Pidgey was evolving, and after only three and a half days of training. Pidgeotto appeared were Pidgey once was. "Alright Pidgey, I mean Pidgeotto, let's win this. Gust!"

"Fury attack!" Pidgeotto couldn't dodge in time and got hit two or three times before she got away.

"Quick attack Pidgeotto!"

"Dodge it." Beedrill flow up but it couldn't get away from her newly evolved Pidgey; Pidgeotto pulled up and hit Beedrill in the stomach.

"Beedrill." The pokemon said as it staggered to stay in the air.

"Quick Beedrill use twineedle attack."

"Dodge!" Pidgeotto dodged one of the twineedle's but got hit by the second. "Pidgeotto!" Pidgeotto pulled up before she hit the ground, than landed gently. "End this Pidgeotto, full powered gust!" Pidgeotto flow up into the air again and sent its gust attack strait at Beedrill, it didn't have a chance to dodge.

Beedrill went down and didn't get back up. "Beedrill!" Dane kneeled by his pokemon.

"Beedrill." His pokemon said sadly.

"It's okay Beedrill you did a great job; take a long rest, return." Dane recalled his pokemon before standing and holding his hand out to her.

They shock hands, it seemed that he wasn't mad at her for winning like a couple of other trainers had been; she would be the same way, it's no fun to lose. "Good battle."

"Yeah, I hope to battle with you again in the pokemon league."

"That would be great I look forward to it." Piper turned to Pidgeotto. "You did awesome Pidgeotto, and I'm so happy that you evolved."

"Pidge." She said proudly and puffed out her chest.

"Okay," Piper laughed. "I know you need to rest, return." Pidgeotto looked like it was smiling as it returned to its poke'ball. "By that way," she said turning to Dane. "Have you seen any Pikachu around here?"

He thought for a moment. "I did hear a rumor that Pikachu could be found in a clearing deep in the forest, it's about a half hour walk from here." He pointed to the north. "Just walk that way and you should come to it."

"Okay, thanks." She said before running off in that direction.

"Welcome." He called after her.

She hoped Dane was right about this, now that her Pidgey had evolved into Pidgeotto she could train her other pokemon so that they would be ready for their gym battle. She also wanted to run into Logan soon so that they could have their pokemon battle, she knew that she had a chance of winning now that she had a Pidgeotto and once she had Pikachu . . . well she really wasn't sure what would happen.

A little under a half hour later she was sneaking up on the clearing that the Pikachu were said to be in. There were no Pikachu there at the moment but seeing as this was her best beat to find you she decided to wait to see if any showed up.

She was starting to get tired and was about to give up on a Pikachu ever showing up when she heard the bushes russell. She ducked down in the bushes and watched as a Pikachu finally came into the field; it was the only one in sight. This Pikachu was different than any other Pikachu she had seen in books, and the poke'dex. Its ears that should just have black tips had a black spick coming out from the tip (much like Riche's Pikachu in the first season of pokemon) and its tail had little tares in it, and there was a scar that ran below its left eye like it spent most of its time fighting. This was going to be one very hard battle.

She came out of the bushes and faces the Pikachu, who glared at her and was positioned and ready for battle. She thought it would run at the site of a human, but this Pikachu looked to want nothing but a fight.

"Go Eevee." She tossed Eevee's poke'ball.

"Eewii." The small fox like pokemon growled as it saw the Pikachu.

"Eevee I really want this Pikachu, will you help me catch it?"

"Ee." Eevee nodded.

"All right start off with your tackle attack." Pikachu seem to be expecting that and jumped to the side at the last minute, and hit Eevee from the side with its Quick attack.

"Eewii." Eevee went down, but not being one to lose a fight, stood up.

"Swift!" This time Eevee's attack hit dead center and sent Pikachu flying into a tree. She had hoped that Pikachu wouldn't get up after that but yeah that was asking too much. Pikachu started sparking and everyone knows what that means, a thunder shock! "Dodge it using quick attack!"

"Chu!" Pikachu launched its attack.

Eevee dodged and came around the back of Pikachu to hit it with her quick attack while it was still using thunder shock. They both got pushing back by the impact, it looked like Pikachu took more damage but Eevee took some herself sense Pikachu had still been attacking.

"Are you still good to go Eevee?"

"Eewii." Eevee nodded.

"Okay, swift attack!" As Eevee released its swift, a beautiful move that looked like shooting stars, Pikachu used quick attack and dodged the swift to hit Eevee. "Eevee! Man what a Pikachu is strong, we need to finish this fast. Eevee use swift while using quick attack so you can hit Pikachu from all sides."

"Eev!" Eevee smiled as she did as instructed. Pikachu may have been faster but after the damage that it took and the fact that it had a low defensive power, this battle was almost over.

"Pika." Pikachu tried to stand; it was glaring at Eevee as if it was ready to keep getting up no matter what. She had never seen a Pikachu glare so much, they had always been serious in battle but it was glaring even before she challenged it to a battle.

"Tackle it Eevee, finish this!"

"Eev." Eevee growled and attacked.

"Pika!" Pikachu flipped backward and landed hard, it struggled but it didn't seem to have the power to get back up.

"Okay here's my chance. Go poke'ball!" Pikachu watched as the poke'ball came toured it and glaring (again) before knocking it back to her using its tail. She caught the poke'ball and looked over at the struggling Pikachu. "What's happened to you Pikachu?" she whispered. Piper looked at Eevee. "We have to catch this Pikachu Eevee." After all of this she had to catch it.

"Ee. Vee." Eevee agreed.

"Use quick attack."

Pikachu couldn't dodge because of all the damage it took and it got hit hard by the quick attack. While it was still dazed Piper throw the poke'ball again, this time crossing her fingers. Pikachu disappeared inside the poke'ball, it shock four times before stopping with a click. She stood there for a minute it was almost hard to believe; she had finally caught a Pikachu.

"Yes! We did it Eevee, we caught Pikachu!" she ran over to the poke'ball and held it up into the air. (Trainer pose- Note couldn't think of a good one that wasn't used so imagine anything you want.)

What's going to happen next? Not even I know! =^_^=
