MLT rushes into the room and closes it.

MLT: Hey guys I'm back with another chapter, so yeah... Wait...

Seth: MLT doesn't own Pokemon or any of the OCs except for me and Francis.

MLT: HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE?!

XXXXX

After eating their dinner, the group decided to go to bed early. They all went to the counter and requested for their own rooms.

Once they got their keys they all went to their separate rooms and went to bed.

-The next day-

Francis woke up to hear noises outside his room. He quickly got his glasses and put them on, then went to change into his regular clothes. The teen looked at his bed to see his pokemon still sleeping peacefully. He let them be and went out of the room.

"Vega go away! ( Poochyena! ) " Shadow growled at the Tricky Fox pokemon while walking away. Vega ignored her request and kept following her. Francis raised a brow and looked around for his friends. "Hey Francis have you seen Ethan?" A voice said behind him. Francis rapidly spun around to see Josh, "Oh. I think he's still sleeping." Josh sighed and rubbed his forehead, "Of course his insomnia causes him to wake up late."

Josh then walked passed Francis, so he could go wake up the boy they were talking about. Francis shrugged and walked away to go look for his other friends.

He went out to the training grounds of the PokeCenter, and he saw Crimson and Ruby training. Francis walked up to them, " Hey guys do you know where the others are?" Crimson and Ruby stopped their training and looked at the taller teen, "Well..." Crimson pondered for a second, "I think Riley is buying some sweets from the PokeMart for her and Ethan, and Cody is taking care of Shadow and Vega."

Francis nodded glad to here that his friends were doing okay then got an idea, "Hey Crimson, you want to train?" Francis then remembered, "Yeah! It's because I have to battle this city's gym today!" The sixteen year old smiled at the request, "I would love to, I don't Ruby would mind either."

The Lucario nodded, "I don't mind at all, Francis. ( Lucario Lu Cario. )"

-Enter battle scene-

Francis sent out Kiriae, Tina, and Wavern.

"Kiriae use Gust!" The Tiny Bird pokemon flew up and started to flap her wings, creating a small tornado and launching it at the Aura Pokemon, but Crimson knew what to do. "Ruby Aura Sphere!" The pokemon did as told,making the blue ball go right through Kiriae's attack and hit the bird directly. Kiriae fell from the sky and crashed onto the floor, barely conscious.

Francis stared wide eyed and sent back the Tiny Bird pokemon into her ball. "Wavern use Withdraw and Tina use your Vine Whip attack on Wavern and throw him at Ruby." Both Pokemon nodded, the Squirtle quickly got in his shell and waited for Tina, who in turn used her vines to grab Wavern.

She raised him up and threw him towards Ruby. Crimson looked at Ruby, who nodded back, "Ruby use Dark Pulse." The Lucario emitted a wave of darkness, which hit the Bulbasaur and Squirtle. It did a good deal on Tina, who was knocked out with that hit, but Wavern was still in his shell.

He hit Ruby and backed away with a lot of scratches on his body. "Not bad, Ruby." He rasped. The Lucario grinned, "Thanks but flattering me won't work."

"Ruby finish this battle with a Dark Pulse!" Crimson shouted. Ruby once again emitted the wave of darkness at Wavern, who tried to dodge, but wasn't fast enough to move. He got hit and was knocked out instantly. Francis smiled half heartedly and returned Tina and Wavern.

"Good job you guys, you did your best." Francis looked up to see Crimson and Ruby walking towards him with smiles on their faces. "You did well Francis." Both friends shook hands and went inside the PokeCenter to heal their pokemon.

-Later-

The whole group went out of the PokeCenter and headed for the Pewter City Gym. Since Francis was going to battle Brock, the others would just go to the bleachers and watch the battle. Cody wanted to battle Brock as well, but he only had Vega with him.

They all got inside the gym and went to their respective spots. Francis was on one side of the field, while on the other side the gym leader stood there with a smile on his face. "Ah so you must be my new challenger, my name is Brock and you'll be fighting me!" He pulled out a pokeball and threw it releasing a Geodude.

"Hah! (Geo!) " It cried. Francis grinned and sent out Blaze, knowing the type disadvantage. "Alright time to battle! (Char Charmander Cha!)" Blaze cried out in excitement.

"Geodude use Tackle!" Brock told his pokemon. The pokemon rolled at Blaze, managing to hit the Charmander.

"Heh.. not bad. (Char.. mander.)" Blaze said. "Blaze use Ember quickly!" Francis told the pokemon.

Brock wouldn't let that happen though, "Geodude use Tackle again." Both Pokemon did their respective attacks. Blaze managed to dodge Geodude's attack, by jumping to the right, and then hitting it with an Ember attack. "Geodude use Defense Curl."

The Rock pokemon curled itself into a ball to protect itself for Blaze's next attack. Francis thought for a second then got an idea, "Blaze I want you to Scratch, Geodude and when it uncurls itself use your Flaming Scratch attack!" The Charmander nodded and ran at the still curled up Geodude.

He gave it a good scratch making the Geodude unfurl itself. Blaze grinned maliciously and used Ember on his hand, making it go aflame. Geodude tried to move, but to its bad luck it couldn't move due to the grin Blaze was giving him.

"What's wrong with the Geodude?" Cody asked. Josh pushed up his glasses, "It seems that Geodude is paralyzed with fear from Blaze's smile." Cody nodded and looked on ahead. Ethan didn't like the look on the smile, and neither did Wolfe.

All of a sudden, Blaze scratched the Geodude as hard as he can, across its face, knocking the poor pokemon out. "Heh never mess with me! (Charmander Char Char!)" Blaze proudly stated, making Francis, Ethan, and everyone's partner pokemon sweatdrop.

Brock frowned and returned his Geodude, "Not bad, but get ready for your last challenge." He then released an Onix. The Rock Snake pokemon looked down at the Charmander, who was jaw dropping. "Blaze that's good, return." Francis returned the Lizard pokemon back into its capsule.

Francis then sent out Wavern. The Water pokemon looked at the Onix and grinned, "This should be easy. (Squirtle Squirt.)"

"Water Gun Wavern!" The Water pokemon shot a stream of water at the Rock Snake, damaging it to a majority. "Onix use Bind now!"

Onix wrapped itself around Wavern, constricting him. Wavern tried to move, but couldn't. "Wavern try to use Water Gun on Onix's face." Wavern opened its mouth and shot the stream of water at the Onix. The Onix grew angry and constricted harder.

"Eat this brat! (Onix!)" Onix growled, but Wavern didn't say anything. Wavern then shot another Water Gun at Onix, and said pokemon loosened his grip on the Squirtle, giving him enough room to jump out.

"You stupid brat! (ONIX!)" The Rock Snake screeched. "Wavern use Tackle while it's still angry!" The Squirtle ran full force into the Onix, knocking the Pokemon out.

"Alright!" Francis yelled happily along with Wavern who was jumping for joy. Their happy victory was stopped when Brock walked up to them, "You did a good job," He smiled and handed him the badge. "Here's the Boulder badge, you earned it."

Francis took the badge from Brock and looked at it, with a smile, "Well thanks Brock." He turned and started to walk away, "See ya later." This movement gave the others the okay and got up from their seats to follow the older teen out.

-outside the gym-

"Is Wavern alright?" Josh asked looking at Francis, who just nodded, "Yeah, we'll just got to the PokeCenter to get him healed." Josh nodded and continued to walk towards the PokeCenter of Pewter City one last time before heading to Mt. Moon.

Francis watched them all head to the PokeCenter ahead of him, he looked at Rika, who smiled warmly. "We got this, Fedora!" She exclaimed happily, but Francis scowled at being called Fedora.
