On way to Lavender Town
Ash, Misty, Brock and Sabrina made their way along the path to Lavender Town. Since they had left the centre Ash had managed to catch an Abra, thanks to Sabrina's help. However due to his party being full, he had to transfer it to Professor Oak. The four trainers were walking along peacfully when Knuckles stopped and sniffed the air.
"What's wrong Knuckles?" Ash had become quite a tuned to when Knuckles could sense something not quite right
Knuckles closed its eyes and focused it's aura all around it. Suddenly his eyes opened and he pointed "Father I can sense a disturbance in that direction. Something extremely powerful is causing it."
Sabrina looked at Knuckles then she closed her eyes as well. She used her psychic energy to home in on the direction Knuckles had pointed. She opened her eyes and gave the other three trainers a calculated look
"My energy is picking up waves of electricity coming from the direction your Lucario was pointing at. I suggest we investigate."
Ash pondered what he had just heard. The fact Knuckles and Sabrina had sensed the disturbance, was enough for him to agree to investigate the strange occurrence. Ash turned to Brock and watched as the older teen pulled out his map.
"Well according to the map, the only thing over in that direction is the Power plant, which ties in with your feeling of electricity Sabrina."
The four trainers walked towards the disturbance lead by Knuckles and Sabrina, they came to a huge grassy area. Right in the middle was a huge building. The trainers noticed a crowd of people standing outside the building attempting to get in. Ash looked above the building and noticed a huge black cloud surrounding it. The closer he got the more he could hear that voice once more.
"Go chosen one, time for you to gain another powerful friend." Ash walked up to one of the members in a white coat and yellow helmet. He noticed the man was trying to open the door, however when ever someone came close, a bolt of lightning from the cloud would strike the ground, just a few yards in front of the person attempting to get in. Ash could see the cloud was no normal storm as the surrounding sky was clear. He looked up to the cloud and noticed a huge shape within it. He pointed Dexter at the cloud, hoping to identify the shape.
"Zapdos the lightning bird Pokemon. This Pokemon is one of the legendary bird Pokemon of the Kanto region. It is normally found on lightning island within the orange islands".
Ash placed Dexter back in his pocket, and turned to his friends "Well I guess we know what's causing the trouble, however we still have no leads on why." Just as Ash was talking he was interrupted by one of the staff
"why, I will tell you why young man. A few days ago a group of men and women in black jumpsuits, invaded the power plant and attempted to catch it. However it proved to powerful for them to capture and they retreated. Zapdos his normally peaceful around this area, so I can only assume they injured it, and now it is lashing out at anything that gets too close."
Ash listened to what the staff member had said, ignoring his own safety he walked up towards the door, only for a bolt of lightning to nearly hit him. Ash stepped back then shouted up into the cloud
"Excuse Zapdos, can you stop with the mini storm, the people attempting to catch you are gone, and the people who work here are trying to get in." Ash suddenly heard a deep voice reply back.
"Human you do not know what you are talking about, the people attempting to get in are trying to catch me and my son. The workers of the plant are safely within the walls of this building."
Ash turned to the group of workers he narrowed his eyes then removed a ball from his belt "Knuckles, Scizor to me, teach this group of criminals a lesson." Scizor and Knuckles appeared in front of the group of workers. Brock was confused what was going on "Ash what are you doing?"
Ash smirked. "Just had a little talk with Zapdos. It seems these workers here are not what the appear to be. isn't that right Team Rocket,"
One of the group members gritted his teeth "Blast we've been discovered, battle position all of you, teach these kids not to mess with our team." As soon as the man had spoken, several poke balls opened revealing a number of Goldbat's a small group of Ekans and a group of koffing. The leader pulled out his own poke balls
"Magmar, Poliwraith front and centre." Two Pokemon appeared in front of the man. One was orange and red all over. Its face had a beak, the other Pokemon was a round shape, with arms and feet, It had a anti-clockwise swirl on its front.
Ash called back to his friends "You guys take on the others, leave the Magmar and Poliwraith to me."
Unknown to the battlers below, Zapdos watched the young trainer with interest "Could he really be Lord Arceus's chosen one?"
Ash knew he was at a disadvantage but he decided to battle "Scizor Sword dance, Lucario get behind Scizor and use Bulk up."
Scizor moved in front of his team mate and began to spin rising his attack, Knuckles stood behind flexing it body raising its attack and defence.
The group leader smirked "Magmar Flamethrower that bug, Poliwraith use Hypnosis!"
Magmar gathered the flame in its beak and let loose a flame that was heading straight for Scizor.
Ash seeing Hypnosis would be bad decided to act "Knuckles hit that Poliwraith with Extreme speed, before it can hit you with hypnosis." Knuckles wasted no time in following his father orders, in the blink of an eye it vanished and appeared in front of its target, lashing out with kicks and punches, causing Poliwraith to lose its concentration.
Meanwhile Scizor was using its Sword dance to protect itself from the power of flamethrower, however it could not stop the power causing his right claw to be burnt. Scizor gritted its teeth.
Ash seeing Scizor was hurt decided to switch things up "Scizor use Baton pass." Scizor glowed white then returned to its ball. Ash removed another ball from his belt "Feebas I choose you. Water pulse that Magmar, Knuckles use Force palm on Poliwraith and keep it away from Feebas." Both of Ash Pokemon followed their orders, Feebas hit Magmar with a pulse of water, while Knuckles used its palm filled with aura to attack Poliwraith.
The leader gritted his teeth "Magmar fight back with Fire punch, Poliwraith use Mega Kick!" Magmar moved in close on Feebas and hit it with a flaming fist, due to its ability flame body it burned Feebas. Feebas let out a cry of pain then glared at the smirking Magmar, Suddenly it glowed white and began to change shape, Once the light had died down a beautiful shining scale Pokemon with a fanned tail appeared. Magmar retreated at the size of its opponent and raced back to its trainers side.
Ash grinned "Welcome to the team Milotic, use Water pulse." Milotic reared her head back, and then fired several pulse of water, confusing the Magmar, meanwhile Poliwraith attempted a spinning kick hoping to hit its opponent, however Knuckles was ready and grabbed the foot. "Knuckles end this Force palm again."
Knuckles paw glowed blue, it punched Poliwraith so hard, that the water/fighting type flew backwards with swirls in its eyes. The team leader seeing his Pokemon, knocked out recalled it. "Magmar use Hyper beam on Milotic." Magmar Smirked then gathered the required power in its beak before firing a huge beam of energy towards the water Pokemon.
Ash grinned "Bad move, Milotic send it straight back with Mirror coat, everyone back up, as this is going to be huge, Knuckles retreat to my side quickly." Milotic covered herself in a mirror sheen, and absorbed the hyper beam she then opened her mouth firing the beam back with twice as much power.
The group leader tried to move out the way, with his exhausted team, however none of them could dodge the blast, and they were all sent flying into the sky.
Milotic lowered her head allowing Ash to stroke it gently "Well done Milotic that was great." The majestic water Pokemon closed its eyes enjoying the attention it was getting from her trainer "Thank you master."
Ash turned to his friends and looked upon their shocked faces. Brock was awe struck by the beauty of Milotic, Misty was jumping up and down like toddler after receiving a present and Sabrina just smiled and acknowledged Ash accomplishment at helping Feebas evolve.
Brock got over his shock "but how?" Ash recalled Milotic then turned to Brock "When i was in the centre, I phoned the professor and he told me Feebas was showing the signs that she was ready to evolve, however she couldn't complete it without battle experience. I guess she was closer than the professor thought she was."
Brock nodded. They were all pulled out of their thoughts by a large shadow descending upon them. The group looked up to see Zapdos in all its glory land , lightning still coursed around its wings, it seems it wasn't alone as another Zapdos landed right next to it. However Ash could not but help notice the size difference between the two legendary.
"Thank you chosen one, you have proved to me today, that our creator was right in choosing you. Even when you didn't even know us you risk yourself against those band of thieves, this alone proves you are worthy of our great power. My son as been chosen by the great creator to be one of your Pokemon eventually. However at the moment he is not ready to leave my side. We will meet again young trainer, and next time you will have a chance to battle him. If you manage to beat him, then I will allow you to catch him and he will join you on your journey. Now chosen one if you will excuse my rash departure. The human workers have been stuck in the building all day, and no doubt wish to know what has happened here. As you are the only one who can understand me, then I wish you to explain it to them."
Ash and his friends watched the two legendaries fly off. They all made their way to the building, they notice the lights on the doors had all turned green, and groups of workers were filing out on to the grassy area. Ash walked up to the group, he had a lot of explaining to do, thanks to a couple of legendaries, deciding to lock them in.
A/N: Sorry for those who thought Ash would catch his secondary legendary, but I don't want his team being two over powered. The Poll was a big hit so thank you, and expect more polls in the future.
