Chapter 6: VS Dustox

Route 105- Petalburg Beach

"Wow the beach looks amazing!" Wally said in awe, standing with his toes in the sand and his arms stretched feeling the air.

"Hey Wally, quit acting like a little girl and move it!" Brendan demanded while Eevee followed him.

Wally looked down discouraged, "Okay, coming." Wally put his shoes on and followed Brendan. He noticed a group of Bug catchers running from Petalburg Forest.

"Brendan, something's going on in Petalburg forest." Wally informed him.

"Really now," Brendan smirked. "This could be interesting."

Brendan, Wally, and Eevee walked up to the Bug Catchers and asked them about the situation.

"There's a really strong bug pokemon in there." One of the boys responded.

"Yeah it was insane, the instant we tried to fight it our pokemon got sick." Another boy continued.

"I see. Well Wally, guess where we're going?" Brendan turned towards the Petalburg Forest.

"Oh no" Wally groaned.

"Oh yes" Brendan replied, enjoying Wally's displeasure.

In the Forest a man wearing a green suit was running from someone. They're coming! He continues to run stumbling upon the large roots in the ground. I've got to get away.

Meanwhile at the entrance Wally and Brendan stood there, one excited and the other terrified.

"Maybe we should go back," Wally suggested.

"We're already here, so why bother?" He turns to Eevee and brought out its ball. "Eevee I'm gonna hang out with Blaze and Fang for awhile, okay?"

Eevee nodded as he retreated into the ball. Then Brendan threw out Fang and Blaze's pokeballs and they materialized. Wally felt like doing the same.

"Forest, Grace, Come out!" Treecko and Ralts materialized, Treecko kept its distance but Ralts tugged on to Wally. Wally tried holding back the tears of glee, At least you like me.

Brendan went ahead deeper into the forest and that's when he started feeling light headed. He covered his mouth and nose, looked up and saw a purple bug pokemon with faded green moth wing and large round yellow antennas. He pulled out the pokedex Wally handed him.

Pokedex:

DUSTOX is instinctively drawn to light. Swarms of this POKEMON are attracted by the bright lights of cities, where they wreak havoc by stripping the leaves off roadside trees for food. When DUSTOX flaps its wings, a fine dust is scattered all over. This dust is actually a powerful poison that will even make a pro wrestler sick. This POKEMON searches for food using its antennae like radar.

"Alright Fang, get him!" Brendan commanded through his arm.

Poochyena continuously tried to bite Dustox by jumping up at it but it was fluttering up too high. Dustox dashed straight for the ground then hovered above Poochyena. Poochyena fainted.

What but how? Brendan knelt down to Poochyena and felt his fur; he felt a fine powder on his fingers. Poison Powder.

Fine Eevee, you've you're up. Brendan threw up Eevee's ball and Eevee was summoned next to Torchic.

"Alright let's make this fast, Eevee Return, Blaze Focus Energy!" Brendan gave out his commands.

Dustox flapped it's releasing a burst of wind but Eevee countered by growling, which was followed by a bright white aura pushing back the gust to Dustox. Torchic started glowing fire red.

Brendan squint his eyes and noticed the particles that was in the gust. So it's true there is poison in its wings.

So now how do I counter without my own Gust, I'm useless. Brendan eyes suddenly widen. Duh, I'm such an idiot.

"Blaze stay on your toes, Eevee you follow my lead!" Brendan started running and Eevee followed but Torchic stayed behind, Dustox trailed them.

That's it take the bait, cause soon you'll be mine. Dustox blew a gust attack sure enough the powder was in the air. "Turn Right!" Brendan and Eevee turn slightly but just enough to get out of the way. They continued the same pattern six more times, Brendan and Eevee stop running in the same direction then ran straight inward out of their cycle.

"Do it now, Blaze!" Brendan yelled picking up Eevee, jumping up for the nearest tree branch.

Dustox followed inward unaware that he trapped himself in an area of combustive powder. Torchic stood outside the ring and blew range of fireballs at the particles surrounding Dustox. "Tor-Chic!"

The collusion of the flames and dust exploded into roaring flames burning Dustox and creating a ring of flames from the directions Brendan and Eevee ran.

The burning moth tried to escape the pain by flying upward.

"Eevee Shadow Ball," Eevee shot a dark purple ball from its mouth at the burning Dustox, the impact causes the moth to fall back down into the fire ring.

Brendan took advantage of the moment and threw a pokeball down on Dustox but couldn't see the result of the capture due to the flames.

"Hmm, Eevee I didn't think this through" Eevee looked up at Brendan. "How will we stop this fire?"

Torchic panicked pacing back and forth wildly, while Eevee felt uneasy and Brendan stared at the flames. A sudden powerful blast of water extinguished the flames.

"Please help me!" the man in the green suit ran towards Brendan.

Another adult needs my help? I'm only 13 people! Brendan thought of the two other times an elder needed his help.

"I finally found you." A man in a strip shirt and blue bandana snickered as a large, muscular, blue gator stood beside him.

"Oh no" said the man in the green suit.

How I get suck in this old geezer's mess? Brendan inconsiderately thought. And how do I get out of it?
