(In the Hotel Lobby)

"So Chicago is our next stop." said Brady. "How are we going to get there" said Emma. "We could rent a couple bikes that will get us to Pittsburgh" said Brady. "That will take 28 hours though" said Katie. "We could take the train that will be 8 hours" said Brady. "How about taking the speed tram?" said the hotel receptionist. "Where do we catch that?" asked Brady. "You can from Pittsburgh to Grands Rapids, MI" said the receptionist. "How do we get to Pittsburgh though?" asked Brady. "Well take the bus" said the receptionist. "Then where does that pick up at?" asked Brady. "It picks up tomorrow at Mechanicsburg" said the receptionist. "Ok" said Brady. They then pay for the rooms and leave Harrisburg with a lot on their minds.

(Walking towards Mechanicsburg)

"Something was wrong with that pokemon yesterday in the park" said Brady. "Yeah that Haxorus was in pain" said Katie. "Could we have done anything about it?" asked Emma. "No it looked like Andrew handled it but from what I saw he was not happy about how that Haxorus was being used" said Katie. "True he was really mad" said Emma. "Yeah he was his Glaceon used his most powerful move" said Brady. They manged to find a nice spot to stop and eat some lunch. The spot was in a park next to the lake were wild pokemon were just swimming. "So what are we having?" asked Brady. "Well we have some Apples, grapes, peaches, and mango. So properly some type of fruit salad" said Emma. "That sounds good" said Katie as Emma prepares it. Emma was about to cut up an apple when a Ducklett flies down and takes the apple and flies to the lake and eats it. "Thats no yours come back here" said Emma as she chases the Ducklett. She then corners the Ducklett. Ducklett shoots water gun at her and the she summons her Herdier.

(Wild Pokemon Battle Emma vs. Ducklett)

"Herdier use your take down."

The Ducklett dodges it and tries to use bubblebeam.

"Dodge it Herdier and use bite." The bite hits and yet the Ducklett does not give up.

The Ducklett uses Wing attack.

"Herdier when he gets close enough use take down." The Herdier waited till Ducklett was right in front of him and he used take down. The Ducklett hit the ground and could not get back into the air.

"Herdier use take down for the final time." The Herdier take down hit and knocked down the Ducklett. She tosses her pokeball. It wiggles once then twice and then for a third time and it finally stops. "Yeah I caught a Ducklett" said Emma.

(Back to making lunch)

"About time I am hungry" said Brady. "Then why did you not finish it" said Emma. "I guess I will wait then" said Brady. "Thats what I though" said Emma. Emma finishes fixing the food and she puts it in the bowls she has. Then she hands one to Katie then Brady and finally herself.

(After Eating)

"Hey did you see a Ducklett come by" said a kid. "No how about you two" said Brady. "I did not" said Katie. "I have and a caught it" said Emma. "Then you owe us some money that duck stole my food" said the kid. Two more walk up. "She stole ours too" said both of them. "I do not owe you guys anything" said Emma. "I barely just caught her after she stole one of my apples" said Emma. "Can we work this out?" asked Brady. "Yeah how about a battle" said the kid. "I will battle you since I caught the Ducklett. By the way do you have a name" said Emma. "Yeah I do it is Seth and I will win the Champions Cup and then beat the Champion" said Seth. " Yeah right I am" said Brady. "Why can't I win" said Emma. "I will ref this battle once it gets started" said Katie. "How many pokemon?" asked Seth. "How about a 3 on 3" said Emma. "Sure" said Seth. They get ready and they each grab one of their pokeballs.

(Match Emma vs. Seth)

"Go Hoothoot" said Seth. "I will start with Torchic" said Emma.

"Torchic fire spin."

"Hoothoot you use confusion." The confusion stopped the attack. "A psychic type" said Emma. "Yeah my Hoothoot beat the 1st gym single handed" said Seth. "You do not have to brag" said Emma. "Its the truth" said Seth. "I have meet Andrew and his pokemon are strong but he does not brag if I learned anything is all pokemon can be beaten all it takes is a well trained pokemon like my Torchic here" said Emma. "Whatever" said Seth.

"Torchic use ember and aim for Hoothoot's feet."

"What good will that do and Hoothoot use Confusion." The Confusion did not hit the ember but hit nothing. The Hoothoot was hit with ember on the feet witch caused a burn on Hoothoot's feet.

"Hoothoot use peck."

"Torchic you use fire spin." The fire spin stopped the Hoothoot's peck and even did damage to Hoothoot.

"Hoothoot come on and use peck again."

"Ember Torchic." The ember hit Hoothoot and causes him to faint.

"Hoothoot is unable to battle Torchic wins" said Katie. "I guess Hoothoot is not strong enough but my next one is go Poliwag" said Seth.

"Hit that Torchic with water gun Poliwag." It hits and send it back a little.

"Torchic are you ok." Torchic starts glowing. "Emma I thing Torchic is evolving" said Brady. "I think so" said Emma. The next thing you see is a Combusken.

"Combusken use ember." The ember was not ember but flamethrower. This move caused the Poliwag to be sent back and faint.

"Poliwag is unable to battle. Combusken wins" said Katie. "Not fair your pokemon cannot just evolve in the middle of a match" said Seth. "A pokemon can evolve at any time" said Emma. "Whatever" said Seth. "Return Combusken and go Ducklett" said Emma. "Go Timburr" said Seth.

"Timburr use low kick."

"Dodge it Ducklett and use wing attack." The wing attack does a lot of damage while the low kick did none.

"Timburr use rock throw."

"Dodge it and use Aerial Ace." The rock throw missed and aerial ace hits without fail.

"Timburr get up." The Timburr is worn out but does what the trainer commands. "Can't you see your Timburr cannot continue" said Katie. "He can look at him" said Seth.

"Ducklett use wing attack." The Ducklett's wing attack caused the Timburr to faint.

"Timburr is unable to battle. Ducklett wins, Emma is the winner" said Katie.

(After the match)

"I guess its time to send Timburr and Poliwag packing" said Seth. "What do you mean?" asked Emma. "I am releasing them" said Seth. As he called out both of them. "They will get better all you have to do is train them" said Katie. "I do not care I will find stronger pokemon" said Seth. He yelled at the two and told them to get lost. Poliwag and Timburr just looked confused and stared at Seth. "Get lost you two" yelled Seth again. Poliwag and Timburr started to walk away and kept looking back. "Seriously you just going to let them go" said Brady. "Yep" said Seth walking way. Timburr and Poliwag run up to him and all he does is keep walking. "We cannot leave his pokemon here" said Emma. "Yeah we have to catch them" said Brady. "I will take the Poliwag" said Katie. "Then I will have the Timburr" said Brady. Brady tells Timburr to come her. "Do you want to be with me Timburr" said Brady. "Tim" said Timburr a little bit happier. Brady takes out one of his pokeballs and points it at Timburr. He then tosses it at Timburr. It does not even wiggle it was caught. Then Katie did the same for Poliwag.

(Back on the road)

"That kid makes me sick" said Emma. "I know you just do not give up on pokemon" said Katie. "I hope we see him again" said Brady. They finally make it to the Mechanicsburg. "Lets go heal our pokemon and spend the night at the Pokemon Center and catch the bus tomorrow" said Brady. They enjoy the rest of their day and listens to Talkin' with Robin Malcolm.

What do you thing of that?"asked Robin. "Well he is doing everything he could to get everyone happy for the event" said Alex. "I know you were thinking of going to California to challenge Andrew again are you?" asked Robin. "Well I am" said Alex. "You have not had a battle since you lost how do you prepare yourself for him?" asked Robin. "I am ready" said Alex. "Ok thank you for joining me and stay tuned listeners we will bring you part 3 of this interview in couple days" said Robin.
