Chapter 17: VS Tropius
[Jagged Pass]
Ring! Ring! Ring!
Brendan woke from his nap and picked up the pokenav given to him by Roxanne.
"Hello?" He asked wearily.
"Brendan, Brendan Ruby is that you?" a familiar voice called out.
"Mr. Emerald?"
"Brendan, is Wally with you right now?" Mr. Emerald sounded desperate.
"No, what happened, isn't he with you?"
"No, he's been missing since the day you left Mauville City."
Brendan thought to himself. Where could Wally be now?
"Don't worry Mr. Emerald, I'll find Wally and bring him back home, again." He assured.
"But there's one problem."
"What is it?"
"Wally is ill, he can't seem to control his emotions, and it spreads to the pokemon around him." Mr. Emerald informed Brendan.
That's what happened before! Brendan thought remembering how Wally tried to bury Eevee alive, after losing to three of his pokemon in their battle.
"Don't worry, I'll still get him back."
"Brendan, be careful, that Ralts seems to make him worst then usual."
"Sure," Brendan promised before clicking off the navigator. He looked to Eevee.
"I gotta stop wasting time, Eevee return." Brendan retrieved Eevee and threw out another pokeball.
"Com- Bus- Kenn!"
Brendan took out a small badge from his belt and held it up.
Some people believe that the badges help power the legends, take it as proof that you're in Team Magma.
"She trusted me with this badge," Brendan told himself remembering Roxanne's words. "Blaze let's go"
One day left.
[Route 118]
Wally searched through the forest, his eyes were emerald green again, his clothes were a bit torn up and he kept mumbling to himself.
Wally ceased walking when he saw the shadow on the ground; he looked up and saw a man in a green sweater and green sweat pants standing on a large boulder.
"Norman Ruby" Wally snarled. "You're my master?"
"Of Course, Wally who else were you expecting?" Norman smirked.
"Those twins told me my master wants to destroy Team Magma." Wally protests, "Yet, your son is one of them."
"I predicted if I didn't finish off Brendan, Roxanne would recognize his power." Norman replied.
"What power?" Wally glared at Norman. "Why is Brendan so special?"
"Eight years ago, Brendan got into an accident in the Cave of Origin" Norman informed Wally. "But enough about him, you also have a power that we want."
"What power would Team Aqua want from me?" Wally growled.
"Team Aqua?" Norman laughed. "We are neither Team Aqua nor Magma."
Norman punched the boulder he was standing. The boulder shattered completely, revealing a caged pokemon, it was brown with green armor and large leaves growing off its back.
"To be my student, you must tame this pokemon who hates the humans who harm this forest!" Norman decalred, lighting a match on the cage and dropping it on the forest grass.
Wally pulled out his pokedex as the pokemon roared and Norman freed the pokemon from the cage.
Pokedex-
TROPIUS: The bunches of fruit around TROPIUS's neck are very popular with children. This POKEMON loves fruit, and eats it continuously. Apparently, its love for fruit resulted in its own outgrowth of fruit. This POKEMON flies by flapping the leaves on its back as if they were wings.
The wild Tropius roared in anger and soared into the skies above the burning forest, it flapped the leaves on its back as wings, spreading the flames across the forest.
Wally searched for Norman but he disappeared in the flames.
Idoit! He left me the forest to fend for myself against this creature. Wally dropped three pokeballs, Nincada, Grovyle, and Ralts.
"Sniper stay here until your ready, Grace, Forest, come with me," Wally glanced around the area looking for an opening in the flames. "Hmph, fine, Forest, deal with this problem."
Grovyle sprung up towards Tropius, but failed to reach him, Tropius blew him down with gust. Darn it! "Grace, use Confusion to bring Tropius down."
Ralts raised its arms and sung it's name, Tropius moved abnormally as it frantically shook its head around and shut its eyes.
"Direct hit," Wally smiled.
Tropius started diving downward headfirst. "Now is our chance, Forest, Leaf Blade!" Grovyle sprung up again and slashed at the falling pokemon's head with his blades.
Grovyle fell back down into the center of the flames, Tropius crashed into the flames roaring in pain.
Wally's emerald eyes turned dry green as he walked towards the pokemon and pulls out his pokedex. "Do you feel it Tropius?"
Tropius rose from the flames and began to stomp the ground around it and Wally.
"You don't hate humans, they are not the ones who caused this fire," Wally stared dead into Tropius eyes as it continued its rampage. "You hate Team Magna, the true enemy of the forest, the ones who really caused you this pain."
Tropius slowly calmed down but still had the rage in its eyes.
"And do you know the main culprit, Tropius?" Wally continued to convince the confused pokemon. "Brendan Ruby and his fire pokemon, Blaze."
"Now come with me and I promise to get revenge on him." Wally raised his empty pokeball. Be patience Ninja.
The angered Tropius entered the ball in agreement. Good, now Sniper, Grace express your emotions.
Ralts glowed and Nincada cracked, another pokemon came out of the shell then the shell glowed white.
Pokedex-
NINJASK: moves around at such a high speed that it cannot be seen, even while its crying can be clearly heard. For that reason, this POKEMON was long believed to be invisible. If NINJASK is not trained properly, it will refuse to obey the TRAINER and cry loudly continuously. Because of this quality, this POKEMON is said to be one that puts the TRAINER's abilities to the test.
SHEDINJA: Hard body doesn't move - not even a twitch. In fact, its body appears to be merely a hollow shell. It is believed that this POKEMON will steal the spirit of anyone peering into its hollow body from its back. SHEDINJA is a peculiar POKEMON. It seems to appear unsought in a POKE BALL after a NINCADA evolves. This bizarre POKEMON is entirely immobile - it doesn't even breathe.
KIRLIA: It is said that a KIRLIA that is exposed to the positive emotions of its TRAINER grows beautiful. This POKéMON controls psychokinetic powers with its highly developed brain. KIRLIA uses the horns on its head to amplify its psychokinetic power. When the POKéMON uses its power, the air around it becomes distorted, creating mirages of nonexistent scenery.
"Wow four new pokemon" Wally grinned. "Lucky me."
It began to rain, Wally looked to the sky, his eyes were emerald again and he wore a cheerful expression.
Off in the distance, in the trees of the forest, Norman stood with the twins and a lady in a light blue pilot suit and a big seagull pokemon.
"What do you think, Winona?" Norman asked the girl in the pilot suit.
"Able to control pokemon's emotions," Winona thought.
"A killing machine" said the girl twin.
"Perfect for Team Sky" said the boy twin.
"Then we'll take him in," Winona decided. "Report this to the leader."
"Right sir!" the twins shouted and jumped off the braches before running off.
"Wally, I'll help you control your curse." Winona guaranteed.
