Here we are with Chapter 8 of Pokemon Unova Adventure, and it just keeps getting more fun writing each new chapter! Now, this chapter will feature the group arriving at the Daycare, and two of our heroes fighting over a Pokemon. Also, I will be using a new evil organization, because Team Plasma kind of sucked. They're actually going to be pretty badass, so expect some pretty crazy crap to go down in Castelia city and the rest of Unova.
Owen's team
Snivy, (f), level 9, Tackle, Leer, Absorb
Pidove, (f), level 14, Tackle, Growl, Gust
Blitzle, (m), level 10, Quick Attack, Shock Wave
It was a bright new day in the Unova region. Wild Pidove were chirping, Patrat were scurrying about, and trainers everywhere were training with their Pokemon. Fate, Angel, and Hez all walked ahead of Owen and Snivy, and CJ, Leaf, and Wotter.
"Angel, come on! It's almost been a week and I need you to practice our routine for this contest!" Fate pleaded. The fire pig still refused to listen to Fate, and it didn't see like her stance would change. She never wanted Fate to pick her, so why should she help the trainer that she didn't want? All she wanted was to be traded to Owen, but that didn't seem likely.
"You have four other Pokemon that are willing to work with you, Fate. Why not use them instead and keep working with Angel?" CJ asked while watching Wotter and Leaf converse.
"I appreciate the idea, but Angel's my starter, and I want to use her in the opening round!" Fate shot back angrily. Angel's interest was suddenly piqued by her trainer's response, and was actually thankful for Fate's confidence in her, which Hez seemed to notice when Angel turned around to look at Fate. The teenage girl smiled at the fire type, but Angel turned around instantly.
"You'll eventually come to your senses," CJ countered. Both Leaf and Wotter nodded along with their trainer before the group arrived at a house on top of a small hill. Intrigued by the house, Owen ran towards it with Snivy holding on to her trainer's shoulder.
"Owen, wait up!" CJ yelled before running after the energetic teen. Fate chase along too before stopping right in front of the door that Owen was knocking on. The door flew open (and on a lesser note almost off the handle), and the three trainers were met by a young girl wearing a light green apron. She had light skin and violet hair along with brown eyes and a red dress.
"Welcome to the Pokemon Daycare Center. How may I help you?"
"This is a Pokemon Daycare Ce-" Owen started, but stopped due to being cut off.
"Hi. I'm CJ, and you look very nice," CJ greeted. The teenage girl laughed before flipping her hair out of her eyes. Owen laughed to himself while Fate rolled her eyes at the fifteen year old's actions, causing CJ to feel stupid.
"Thank you for the compliment. Now, how may I help you today?" the girl asked for a second time.
"We were just stopping by to check everything out on our way to Nacrene city for my second gym badge!" Owen replied energetically. Snivy lazily pumped her fist afterwards, but no one seemed to notice.
"You're a trainer? I could certainly use some help, if you wouldn't mind."
CJ's heart nearly jumped out of his chest as he fell back, causing Owen and the older girl to laugh at him while Fate stared at the girl jealously. He slowly got back up while rubbing his back, and the violet haired girl led the group into the Daycare Center.
"Well, the Pokemon in here are constantly being attacked by this strange Pokemon that comes by pretty often. Could you all help and try to keep it from attacking the Pokemon?" the girl asked while looking around at all of the Pokemon. There were a few dogs (Lillipup), and several Patrat looking up at Owen, Fate, and CJ full of hope.
"No problem. Leaf, Wotter, and I will vanquish this beast," CJ declared as if he were a knight.
"I'll help out too. Maybe this Pokemon is really strong!" Owen thought aloud, which caused Fate to look over at Owen.
"You've already caught two Pokemon. I should get this one, because it could help me out in my contest." Owen looked at the girl before shaking his head and pointing his right thumb at himself.
"Sorry, Fate. If I find it, I'm catching it." With that, Owen darted out of the Daycare Center along with the several Pokemon that the violet haired girl had released. Fate and CJ chased after Owen before arriving in the playground area of the Daycare Center, and watched the Pokemon run around wearily as they waited for the wild Pokemon to attack.
"wen, why don't we have a battle over who gets to catch the Pokemon? It seems like the ony way we can settle this," Fate proposed. Owen looked at Snivy, who didn't seem to like the idea, but he nodded.
"Challenge accepted. Snivy, let's go!" Owen shouted. Snivy leaped off of her trainer's shoulder and stood in front of him, waiting for Fate to choose her Pokemon.
"The only way to make this fair is for Angel to battle but she doesn't want to," CJ announced. "So it looks like Owen gets to catch that wild Pokemon." Fate shook her head before looking over at Angel, who was sitting next to Hez.
"Angel, would you mind battling against Snivy? I-" Fate didn't have to explain any more, as Angel shot up and darted forwards. The fire type glared at Snivy, and vice versa. There was a mutual dislike between the two, but no one could tell why. CJ looked at both sides before putting his hands straight in the air.
"This battle will be between Snivy and Angel! The winner will be allowed to catch the Pokemon that is terrorizing the Daycare! Begin!"
"Snivy, use Tackle!" As soon as CJ threw his hands down, Snivy sprinted about ten feet with the intent to send Angel flying halfway across the globe.
"Dodge it and use Ember, Angel!" Fate countered. Angel nodded and jumped right over Snivy. When she landed on the ground, Angel's nose began to glow red, and she released a flurry of fire bullets that pelted Snivy. The grass snake began to cry in pain as result, but Owen didn't seem worried.
"Hang in there, Snivy! Use Tackle again!" he shouted confidently. Snivy nodded and then ran straight through the Ember attack and slammed into Angel, which sent the fire type rolling back towards Owen. The force of the attack, however, caused Snivy to tumble, and she landed flat on her stomach.
"Alright. Angel, use Tackle!" Angel charged towards Snivy angrily, and the grass type was struggling to get back up on her feet.
"Look out, Snivy!" Owen cried. Just before Angel could hit into Snivy, the grass type lifted Angel into the air with two vines shooting out of her shoulders, which caused everyone to gasp in shock. Angel simply struggled in the tight grip of Snivy's vines, but eventually stopped when she realized she couldn't break free.
"Wow! Snivy just learned Vine Whip! How convenient," CJ exclaimed while eyeing Snivy, who appeared to be seeing red.
"Throw Angel against the ground and then use Tackle, Snivy!" Owen ordered while stomping on the ground excitedly. Snivy nodded and her vines quickly smacked agaoonst the ground with Angel, causing the fire type to cry in pain. Snivy then ran towards her opponent and slammed Angel into Owen, who helped the fire type back up.
"Angel, use Tackle one more time!" Fate shouted across the mock battlefield. Angel nodded before sprinting towards Snivy.
"Snivy, dodge!" Snivy sidestepped away from the Tackle attack, but she and Owen didn't realize that Fate and Angel wanted Snivy to dodge.
"Perfect! Let's wrap this up with Ember!" Angel turned and shot a flurry of fire bullets at Snivy, which caused the grass type to start skidding across the ground face first. Once the attack ended, everyone saw that Snivy's eyes were shut tight, which caused Fate and Angel to cheer happily. The fire type starter happily jumped into Fate's arms with a bright smile, causing Fate to start smiling even more. Angel then realized what she was doing, and hopped out of Fate's arms, but was still flashing a small smile.
"Good battle, guys. You deserve to catch that Pokemon after that. I guess we'll just have to wait to get another member of the team," Owen said to Snivy, who had a decent amount of bruises. The grass type nodded before hopping onto her trainer's shoulder, but then glared at Angel, who was giving her the same dirty look as before.
"Well, I guess we're just going to have to wait for that Pokemon for a while. It doesn't seem like it's going to come today," CJ opined. As if it was on cue, all of the Pokemon from the Daycare center began to let out cries of fear as a small and ugly Pokemon stepped out of the woods and began firing Sludge attacks everywhere. It looked like a green trash bag, except there was garbage seeping out of the sides as if they were arms, and it also had large white eyes.
"What Pokemon is that?" Fate quizzed as she pulled out her Pokedex.
"Trubbish, the Trash Bag Pokemon. Nobody knows how Trubbish are made, but it's assumed they are comprised of people's garbage that lays in the sewers," the Pokedex read, causing Fate to cringe.
"Are you sure you really want this Pokemon?" Owen asked while taking a Pokeball off of his Pokebelt.
"No way. I won our bet, so I'm going to catch it. Hez, let's do this!" Fate yelled to her very first Pokemon. Hez shot up off of the ground and nodded happily while eyeing the Trubbish. "Alright, let's use Hydro Pump!" As soon as Hez unleashed the powerful attack, the Trubbish fired a powerful Sludge attack which cancelled out the Hydro Pump attack.
"Trub!" the Trubbish cried before running towards Hez. The Pokemon hopped high in the air before shooting a series of poisonous bullets towards Hez.
"That's Sludge Bomb!" CJ shouted while Leaf and Wotter dove behind their trainer as if he were a shield.
"Hez, dodge it and use Earthquake!" Fate commanded. Hez ran straight forwards before slamming his fists on the ground, which sent a wave of energy flying towards Trubbish, who had just landed on the ground. The poison type Pokemon was launched into the air before smacking against the ground. "Go, Pokeball!" Fate shouted while throwing a Pokeball at the downed Pokemon.

3...
Ping!
"Yes! Way to go, Hez!" Fate cheered while hugging her Swampert. The water and ground type cheered happily while Fate picked the Pokeball up off the ground.
"Thank you so much for taking care of the Trubbish. Please, take this egg," the violet haired girl said while handing Fate a dark brown egg that had three silver stripes running across it horizontally.
"I'm sorry, I cant take this," Fate said sheepishly.
"I can!" CJ yelled while taking the egg from the girl's hands, causing her to giggle.
"Well thank you. Please be safe on your travels!" she said as the group walked out of the Daycare.
"Alright! I can't wait to win my second badge!" Owen shouted energetically. "We're gonna win this one, and then we'll only have six left, Snivy," Owen told his starter. The grass type nodded with approval as the group headed down the road. The group of three walked with smiles on their faces, and so did their Pokemon. What they didn't know, was that the smiles and happiness wouldn't last long.
That's the end to this chapter, but get ready for this new organization to appear and kick some ass. Till next time, peace out.
1) What's in the egg CJ got?
2) How do you think Trubbish will do in Fate's contest?
3) Should Owen catch a fairy type in Kalos? I know it'll take about a year to get there, but I like planning ahead :P
