Telepath/Aura in Flashback 'Random WORDS GO BRRRR'
Also, yes I am still having the Aura/Telepathy underline issue. I will try to figure something out sometime.
Shovels could be seen digging up dirt in a hole. Inside was Team Rocket. Like usual, they were reciting their motto. Jessie and James would take turns saying lines. "To protect the world from devastation!" "To unite all peoples within our nation."
"To denounce the evils of truth and love. To extend our reach to the stars above." Jessie and James said together. "Jessie!" "James!" The Team Rocket motto was interrupted by none other than Meowth. Jessie and James were reciting their motto right above the pit while Meowth was digging it.
Meowth climbed out of the pit and slammed the tip of his shovel into the ground. "Meowth! I don't get why you two are always talking and I'm stuck doing all the work." he complained. "We haven't got much time; if they're headed for Pewter City, they'll have to pass this way." Jessie said. "And they'll fall right into our trap." finished James.
Meowth went back to digging and Jessie and James joined him. Feeling invigorated, they dug the pit very deep extremely quickly. Then, they covered it up with a layer of sticks, leaves, and dirt. "Come on, dig it deep and then cover it up so well that they'll never guess it's a trap!" exclaimed Meowth.
"Huh, perfect!" said Meowth after they finished covering it up. Suddenly, a realization hit James. Sweat dripped from his face. "Ahhhh! I can't even tell where the trap is!" Jessie and Meowth realized that James was right.
The trio moved around to try and figure out where they left the trap. First, they went further down the path. Then they went back to one side. Next, they went to the other side. They decided to stop in the middle of the path.
Meowth had a thoughtful expression on his face while he crossed his arms. Jessie and James both had one arm over another with one of their hands underneath their chins. "Hmm." Jessie and James said.
The ground underneath them gave a growl and went down a little. Team Rocket looked down and turned to each other. Before they could process what was going on, the ground underneath them collapsed. All three of them threw their hands in the air as they fell screaming "AHHHH!"
Ash and Misty were walking on a rocky path. Unlike the dirt road in Viridian forest, the road here was rocky and made of rocks. There were cracks in some of the rocks on the ground. Of course, there were still smears of dirt in places.
Ash realized that the path ended which meant they arrived at Pewter City. He ran up a large stone and looked at the sight. The city looked beautiful from up there. Pikachu and Misty ran closely behind him. "Yay! Pewter City." Misty yelled.
"Phew." Ash comfortably sat down on the stone. He stared happily at the sights. "For a moment there, I thought I would be stuck in that forest for the rest of my life!" "Chu." Pikachu agreed while plopping down next to him.
They heard a man beneath them. Underneath the rock they were sitting on, there was a small drop. It was around a few feet tall. Sitting underneath them, on the ground, was a man. "Pewter City is gray, the color of stone. This town has always been famous for stone."
"Huh? What the- who is this guy?" Ash asked Misty. "Never met him." replied Misty. The man spoke again. "The names Flint, and you are sitting on some of my merchandise, young man."
Ash got off the rock and picked Pikachu up. "Uh, sorry." He stared at what the man was selling. "You mean you sell rocks?" Ash asked. "It's a Pewter City souvenir. Want to buy some?"
"I'll buy one! I'll ge-" before Ash could finish his sentence, Misty dragged him away. "Sorry, Mr. Flint, but I have to have a chat with my friend." Flint waved his hand. "Have a good talk."
"ASH! I GET YOU'RE TRYING TO BE KIND BUT THIS IS TOO MUCH; THOSE ROCKS ARE OVERPRICED!" Misty yelled. Misty was ranting on and on when she noticed that Ash wasn't there anymore.
Meanwhile, Ash had just obtained his purchase from flint. "This has a fossil doesn't it?" Ash questioned. "You're right! You have a great eye. It contains a Claw fossil. It's pretty small and I put it next to some bigger or more impressive rocks. To the average person, it's just not worth it."
Ash nodded his head understanding the logic. "Wait, what if a rich person just wants it?" "Well, it's not my most expensive rock. Normally, this one costs fifteen thousand pokedollars, but my most expensive rock costs forty thousand pokedollars. By all accounts this one should cost more; however, I do that so only someone like you would end up buying it."
Ash smiled seeing that the man was quite smart. "Hold up, you only charged me ten thousand pokedollars!" Flint chuckled. "Didn't you read the sign? It says sale. Well, it would have cost thirteen thousand pokedollars. Just think of the two thousand pokedollars as a prize for figuring it out."
"Thanks a lot!" Ash said. He was filled with jubilation. Misty ran up to Ash. "What are you thinking?" She saw the stone in Ash's hand and was filled with horror. "Don't tell me… THAT YOU ALREADY BOUGHT IT?!"
Ash forgot that most people wouldn't notice something like this. Even good, experienced trainers usually wouldn't have noticed the fossil if it was a Dome or Helix fossil, let alone a foreign fossil .
Ash explained to Misty that this wasn't an ordinary rock and was a fossil. "This works out great because there is a fossil rejuvenation project in Pewter!" Ash yelled. "They will do it for you for free as long as you let them record the results. I overheard a conversation about it from some employees." Flint told Ash. "Thanks, mister!" Misty said.
"Well, I'm guessing you're after the Pewter City badge." Flint stated. "Was it really that obvious?!" Ash half yelled. "Kind of. Only a trainer would have picked up on that detail. Plus, I just got a lucky guess." Flint answered.
"Your pokemon sure do look worn out. Follow me; I'll take you guys to the pokemon center." Flint said. "See, looks can be deceiving! He's a nice guy." Ash told Misty. "Are you sure?" Misty asked back.
Shattering any goodwill he had before, Flint told Ash "By the way, that will be a two pokedollar charge for resting on my rocks." Ash and Misty's sweat dropped and they jump in inhuman ways before falling on the floor.
"Please, heal my pokemon." requested Ash to Nurse Joy. He gave her a tray with all his pokeballs on it. Since Pikachu hated being in a pokeball, he just sat on the tray. "Sure. Right away Ash!" responded Nurse Joy.
"I've heard nice things about you from my younger sister." Nurse Joy said. "Uh, thank you." Ash responded. "Hey, Ash, look at this!" Misty told Ash while looking at a poster. "Cool, the regional championship is happening tomorrow!" exclaimed Ash. "Do you think you can get the gym badges?" Misty asked. "Of course I can." Ash said.
Before the duo could do anything else, Flint walked in. "Do you think you can beat Brock?" "I think so, but I'll never know if I don't try!" Ash responded. "Good luck. I think you'll do good. I'll be rooting for you kid!" Flint said while leaving.
Ash and Misty were eating in the pokemon center. "Do you really think you can win? Gym leaders are way stronger than your average pokemon trainer. They are way tougher!" Misty asked. "If you ask real nicely, I'll give you some of my water type pokemon to help!" Misty finished.
"No way!" Ash said back. Misty looked stunned. Her confused face began to morph into a face of anger. However, Ash cut her off. "It's not that I don't appreciate the help. It's just that me and my pokemon have been training real hard for this. Besides, if I use your pokemon, I wouldn't have earned the gym badge." Misty's face softened. "I guess you're right."
The duo ate together. Misty finished slightly before Ash, somehow. "See you later!" Misty said while leaving. "See you." responded Ash. He finished eating then looked at the bill. "Wait a minute. COME BACK HERE MISTY! YOU CAN'T LEAVE ME HERE TO PAY BOTH OUR BILLS!" By the time he noticed, Misty had already booked it. He sighed as he paid the full bill.
After he paid his bill, he went down to collect his pokemon from Nurse Joy. "Well, Ash, Pikachu and your other pokemon are back in fighting condition." Nurse Joy said. "Aw, that's great!" Ash said while leaving the pokemon center.
He had been walking for a good five to ten minutes. He was finally here; Ash was at the Pewter City gym's doorsteps. As expected, almost everything was made from stone. Ash walked up the steps and pushed the double doors open at the same time. "Hello!" Ash yelled. His voice reverberated inside of the gym.
When he got no response, he said "Is anyone home?" He walked a little further when he heard a voice. "Who goes there?" He turned around and saw the gym leader, Brock sitting on a stone slab. "So, you must be Brock. I'm Ash from Pallet Town. I challenge you to a gym battle!"
"Since this is a gym battle, I'm guessing there will be special rules." Ash said. "You're right! We will use two pokemon each. Understood?" Brock asked. "Yes!" answered Ash.
Brock looked at Ash's Pikachu. 'It looks like he recently got it, but it looks strong and it looks like they have a connection.' "As gym leader, I have to accept every challenge." Brock said. He snapped his fingers and the lights in the gym came on.
Two parts of the wall opened; the battlefield, a rocky terrain, slid into place. Ash and Pikachu swiftly ran to the other side to avoid getting their legs crushed. Ash understood why the lights were off now. It was an intimidation tactic. It was partially a test to see if trainers were ready to challenge Brock.
Brock jumped from his stone slab and onto the battlefield. "Let the match begin!" "Pikachu, to the battlefront!" "Geodude, gooooo!" Brock threw Geodude out. He wanted to test the waters. He wanted to see what Ash's response would be.
"Geodude, use Tackle!" Brock ordered. 'Quick, use Dig!' Pikachu quickly dug underground where Geodude couldn't reach him. Brock noticed this. He wondered if they had a secret communication system or if Pikachu was the one training Ash.
"Geodude, use Bulldoze!" Brock commanded. He thought he had Pikachu. 'Hop out; then, use Brick Break!' At the last moment, Pikachu leaped out of the ground with a glowing hand. 'That was his plan! He wanted to bait Geodude.' Brock thought. Shock was visible on his face. 'There's no way Pikachu would do this on his own! Ash Ketchum, I have underestimated you!'
"Geodude, use Defense Curl. Then, use Rollout!" Geodude started to shine. Before Geodude could complete his orders, Ash commanded Pikachu to use Meteor Mash. Pikachu's hand one again glowed white. This time, when Pikachu struck Geodude, there was a decently sized explosion.
When the smoke cleared, Geodude was knocked out. Pikachu was slightly winded, but he still had some fight in him. "I'm done playing! Onix, let's go!" Brock exclaimed.
Brock wondered what Ash would do now. To his surprise, Ash recalled Pikachu. "Pikachu, come back! Gyarados, to the battlefront!" Brock was truly surprised now. He didn't think a newer trainer had a Gyarados. Much less, one that obeyed them. He didn't think that Ash would send out a pokemon that didn't obey him.
He was correct. Out of the pokeball, a giant, red, Gyarados appeared. Brock's jaw fell to the ground. It was even shiny. "Gyarados, to the battlefront; use Hydro Pump!"
Flashback
"That's great Magikarp! Let's do it again." Ash complimented. Currently, Ash and Magikarp are practicing accuracy with Hydro Pump. To Ash's surprise, Magikarp started to glow. He saw her elongate and turn into a sea serpent. She had become a majestic, red, Gyarados.
Gyarados let out a roar. Ash was weary; he had learned that some Gyarados went on rampages upon evolution. His doubts instantly dissolved when Gyarados rubbed her head next to his. He smacked himself mentally for doubting his pokemon.
"Hey, Gyarados, how about I scan you with Dexter? I'm sure you learned something new!" Gyarados let out a roar of approval. Ash pulled out his pokedex. He pointed it at Gyarados and scanned her.
Gyarados, the atrocious pokemon. It has an extremely aggressive nature. The Hyper Beam it shoots from its mouth totally incinerates all targets. This Gyarados is female. This Gyarados is incredibly large. It is 25'07 tall or 7.8m. It weighs 746lbs or 338.4kg. (A/N: For some reason, on Serebii, Alpha Gyarados is smaller than Max size Gyarados. Someone at Serebii probably just dropped the ball and swapped the two. It isn't like that with other pokemon. :/ so I'm using the max size, but it's probably actually the alpha size.) It has the abilities Intimidate, Anger Point, Defiant, Strong Jaw, Swift Swim, and Moxie. This Gyarados knows Tackle, Flail, Bounce, Hydro Pump, Celebrate, Happy Hour, Dragon Rage, Leer, Hyper Beam, Thrash, Dragon Dance, Rain Dance, Twister, Ice Fang, Crunch, Scary Face, Hurricane, Whirlpool, Waterfall, Brine, Aqua Tail, and Outrage. Note: No other discovered specimen of this species has the abilities Anger Point, Defiant, Strong Jaw, and Swift Swim. Though, scientists used to think that Gyarados had at least one of these abilities. This pokemon has pokerus. It is also shiny.
"Incredible! Gyarados, you know so many moves! You are one of a kind. You have so many special abilities!" Ash complimented. He was dancing like an excited five year old. Gyarados pumped her chest out in a ridiculous amount of pride. It was like Christmas had come early for her.
She was thrilled that she was this strong. She never thought she would have all these abilities. Though, abilities are genetic. She must have had dorman genes from her ancestors. Her ancestors must have been different species of pokemon that bred with Gyarados, and their dormant genes activated inside of her.
Ash wondered what the odds of two of his pokemon having pokerus were. A few moments later, a realization hit him. Butterfree must have spread pokerus to some of his other pokemon. Still, even one pokemon with pokerus was a miracle. "Wonderful, now, let's try learning Iron Head! Just in case you run into rock types that happen to have a secondary typing that resists water." Ash explained. Gyarados thought about the idea for a moment. She was tempted to say no for a moment. However, she could see the logic in what Ash told her.
She let out a roar of acceptance. "Awesome!" Ash exclaimed. For the next three hours, they tried to use Iron Head. Gyarados was able to get the basics down, but it would fail sometimes. She could never seem to master the move. It would work sometimes, but it wouldn't work at the exact time she wanted or there would be a delay. Other times, it was just weaker than it should be.
No matter what they did, she couldn't seem to master the attack. They decided to just move on to getting used to her new body. This was way easier for her. Unlike some other pokemon that had trouble using their body after evolving, she felt completely fine.
Ash was surprised, then again, his pokemon had always been extraordinary. Still, he was a little bummed that they couldn't master Iron Head. However, he was still satisfied with all the things that happened with Gyarados today. He smiled to himself. They were going to challenge Brock soon. He talked to Gyarados a little bit on the way to the gym.
Flashback End
A blast of extremely compressed water slammed into Onix. Onix barely held on with his ability, Sturdy. Pokemon with the ability Sturdy had more durability than usual. In other words, they were less likely to tire and could take more hits. Still, Onix was on the verge of fainting.
Brock could see that one more hit would mean defeat. He needed to finish this quickly. "Onix, use Rock Slide!" Ash chuckled to himself. He had said commands out loud. Then again, he always lost self control when he was really excited. He guessed he forgot about it at that moment. It was truly exhilarating for him.
Ash panicked at the moment. He didn't have many counters to this. His best bet was to use Hydro Pump to destroy all the rocks.
'Gyarados, quick-' Gyarados cut Ash off in her thoughts. 'You want to try that? You know it's risky right? You're right! I choose to believe in you. GYARADOS, USE IRON HEAD TO DESTROY THE ROCKS!'
Gyarados's head started to glow a metallic silver. She rammed her head into all of the rocks, shattering them all instantly. She ended up accidentally breaking the roof of the gym.
Brock's siblings cheered Brock on. They yelled that he couldn't lose. Misty was astounded; she didn't think Ash's Magikarp was so close to evolving. She also didn't know it would be this huge.
Before Brock could send out another command to Onix, Ash's Gyarados moved first. 'Gyarados, finish it off with Waterfall!' Gyarados summoned a large amount of water around it. Almost like going up a waterfall, it flew through the water quickly and slammed into Onix with the water. Upon contact, Onix was knocked out. Onix groaned on the floor of the gym's battlefield. There were swirls in Onix's eyes.
Ash cheered on Gyarados who let out a roar of happiness. She was pleased with her victory and mastery of Iron Head. "Return, Onix." Brock's pokeball shot out a red beam of light that brought Onix back into his pokeball.
"I want to ask you something; how did you meet Gyarados?" Brock wondered how a new trainer would get a Gyarados, a shiny one no less. He could see that Ash was skilled; that was obvious, but he still couldn't imagine Ash catching a Gyarados.
"Well, when I found Gyarados, she was actually just a Magikarp." The story made much more sense to Brock already; however, he didn't interrupt. He wanted to hear it all. "She was floating down a creek in our family's backyard. You see we have a really large back yard. Pokemon live everywhere; but, there is a creek that is pretty close to our house. You only have to run for around a few minutes to get there. I was playing there when I found her. We nursed her back to health and released her in the large pond connected to the creek. She lived in the pond because there was no current. When she finished healing, we expected her to leave. However, she chose not to!" Ash finished.
Brock's respect for Ash went up by a lot. He was glad Ash was a good trainer. "It's understandable to see that she didn't want to leave after being treated so well. It is my pleasure to present you with this Boulder Badge!" Brock said. "Thank you so much! We earned the Boulder Badge!" Ash yelled with excitement. "Pika pika!" Pikachu jumped up with Ash and did a similar pose.
"Great job." Ash complimented Gyarados as he returned her.
Misty ran down from the railing near the roof to Ash. "Wow, I didn't know Gyarados would be so strong!" "Yeah, she's magnificent." Ash responded. The duo chatted a bit before heading out of the gym.
Flint was waiting for him outside of the gym. "I'm assuming that you won. You have a cheerful expression on your face." "Yup! I just won my first gym badge!" Ash said excitedly. "Oh, yeah, you also mentioned you knew where the fossil revitalization center is. Can you point me in the right direction?" Ash continued.
"I'll take you all the way." Flint said. "Thank you so much!" said Ash. "I'll go shopping for some supplies." Misty said. Misty left Flint and Ash.
Ash was walking with Flint. "Brock's pretty strong!" Ash half yelled. Flint nodded his head. "Brock is very good. His own talents could take him way further than being the local gym leader." Ash looked confused. "Yeah, but why has he never been in a regional championship himself?" Ash questioned. "He has his reasons." Flint said. "Huh?" was Ash's response.
Flint brought Ash along on a small detour. Flint brought Ash to Brock's house. They peeked in from the backdoor from behind some bushes. Brock was cooking. Suddenly, a young girl ran up to Brock. "I tore my skirt!" "All right, all right, I'll sew it up for you." He said. Ash loudly said "Huh?" again. He looked at Flint in confusion.
He then continued to watch Brock fix the little girl's skirt. "Is it done yet?" the girl asked. "Just a minute." Brock answered.
Ash was still walking with flint. Though it was evening earlier, it was night now. "Wow, I sure never thought of Brock like that." said Ash. "Brock has ten little brothers and sisters to take care of; so, he could never leave town for regional championships." Flint said.
Ash looked back towards Flint. "Doesn't he have a mom or a dad?" "His good for nothing father left the family to become a pokemon trainer and they never heard from him again. Brock's heartbroken mother tried her best to hold things together, but, sadly, she passed away. Brock's the only one his little brothers and sisters have left." Flint answered.
Ash looked downcast. "I better not listen to any more sad stuff. If I had known this before my match with him, I might've not had the heart to beat him."
Ash and Flint finally arrived at the fossil rejuvenation center. "Say, how do you know so much about pokemon?" Flint panicked a little bit before answering. "I'm just a little interested. You know?" Ash nodded his head in response.
A scientist asked Ash. "We will do this for free if you let us record the results." "Of course!" Ash responded. He was happy to let them record what happened in exchange for a free revitalization.
They put his Claw fossil in their contraption. After around thirty minutes, there was an Anorith in the Claw fossil's place. "Hi, I'm Ash! I'm your trainer. I haven't captured you yet though, seeing as you have just been revitalized." Anorith chirped in understanding.
Ash brought out a pokeball and Anorith put his claw on the pokeball. Anorith was sucked right in. Ash called Professor Oak. The professor picked up. Before Ash could say anything Professor Oak yelled. "HOW DO YOU HAVE A PREHISTORIC POKEMON?" It took a moment for Ash because his ear drums had just been ruptured. "Ah, I got a Claw fossil and rejuvenated it. I was going to Ask for Anorith in exchange for Beedrill."
Professor Oak was initially disappointed; however, his mood changed when he realized he got to study a shiny pokemon. "Of course, my boy, I will send Anorith over right away!" Ash and Professor Oak swapped Beedrill for Anorith.
"Hey, can I talk to the Professor alone?" Ash asked. The scientists nodded. Ash walked to somewhere more solitary. "You know the Butterfree I caught?" "Mhm. It evolved quite quickly." Professor Oak answered. "Well, it had pokerus!" Ash said. Professor Oak panicked. "IS IT OKAY?" "Yes, it's totally fine. I suspect my other pokemon have gained pokerus from it. Don't worry, they are not having any negative side effects." Ash reassured.
"That is great!" Professor Oak said before hanging up.
Ash decided to scan Anorith with his pokedex. "Come out, Anorith." Anorith burst out of his pokeball. "I'm going to scan you; okay?" "Ano anorith!"
Anorith, the old shrimp pokemon. This Pokémon was restored from a fossil. Anorith lived in the ocean about 100,000,000 years ago, hunting with its pair of claws. This Anorith is male. This Anorith is incredibly large. It is 5'10 tall or 1.75m. It weighs 69lbs or 31.25 kg. It has the ability Battle Armor and the hidden ability Swift Swim. This Anorith knows Scratch, Harden, Mud Sport, Water Gun, Snore, Sleep Talk, Stealth Rock, Fury Cutter, Smack Down, Metal Claw, Ancient Power, Bug Bite, Brine, Aqua Jet, Iron Defense, Water Pulse, Cross Poison, Rapid Spin, Knock Off, Swords Dance, and Rock Slide. Note: Aqua Jet, Iron Defense, Water Pulse, Cross Poison, Rapid Spin, Knock Off, Swords Dance, and Rock Slide are suspected to be egg moves.
"Wow, you just became revived and you're already this strong! You're going to be one of the strongest Anorith, ever!" Ash exclaimed. Anorith chirped happily. "Oh, you want to stay on my shoulder for now?" Anorith chirped again.
Ash and Anorith went back to the others. Ash and Flint were about to leave; when, suddenly, smoke filled the room. Three figures could be seen behind the smoke.
Jessie and James spoke in turn. "To protect the world from devastation." "To unite all peoples within our nation." "To denounce the evils of truth and love." "To extend our reach to the stars above." "Jessie!" "James!" "Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light." "Surrender now or prepare to fight."
"Meowth, that's right!" Meowth said while dragging out the word right.
"TEAM ROCKET!" Ash yelled angrily. "Dat's right twoip!" Meowth exclaimed. "We're here to take the rejuvenation machine!" James said. "Shut up! You're telling them things they don't need to know." Jessie said.
"Koffing let's go!" "Ekans get a move on!" James and Jessie yelled. Koffing and Ekans appeared. "Gyarados, Anorith, to the battlefront!"
Team Rocket was intimidated by Gyarados. So were their pokemon. "Anorith, set up Swords Dance!" Anorith spun its claws in a special dance. It powered itself up. "Ekans, use Tackle!" "Koffing Smog!"
Ash cursed inwardly. Gyarados's immense size and large attacks limited his options. "Gyarados, use Aqua Tail on Koffing! Anorith, use Brine on Ekans!" Gyarados's entire tail was covered in water and then slammed into Koffing.
Koffing was sent flying into the wall, knocked out cold. Anorith shot a blast of salty water from its mouth. Though it didn't make Ekans faint, it did severely injure it. "Anorith, now finish it off with Rock Slide!"
Anorith generated stones from the sky that rained down on Ekans. Ekans was knocked unconscious from this attack. "Go get them Meowth!" Jessie ordered. "Me? Oh, right I'm a pokemon! Still, I don't wanna fight that Gyarados! It's scary."
A tick mark could be seen on Jessie's forehead. "Go fight it or else!" Before Team Rocket could bicker any longer, Ash commanded Gyarados to use Outrage. Her eyes glowed red and a red aura surrounded her. She sent them flying through the side of the lab.
"Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again!"
The scientists thanked Ash profusely. "Thank you for saving our research. Without you, those thieves would've taken everything we had worked on. From now on, we will revitalize fossils for you free of charge! We can never repay you for the service you have given us."
"It's no sweat!" Ash said nervously while patting the nape of his neck. He looked somewhat mareepish.
Ash and Pikachu were walking alone. They were on the road that left Pewter City. "Hey, Pikachu, Anorith, I think we're missing something, but I can't put a finger on it." "Pika" "Ano" both pokemon agreed with Ash.
Ash heard Brock's voice behind him. "Hey, hey wait up! Ash!" Ash turned around confused. "Brock?" "To tell you the truth, I get more pleasure from raising pokemon than battling them." Brock said. "I don't care about being a great pokemon trainer; I want to become the world's best breeder, but I can't leave here because I have to look after my brothers and sisters." Brock said while looking at the lake.
He turned back to Ash. He had a fist clenched and raised it to his right chest. "Ash, I want you to fulfill my dream too! Will you do that for me?" Brock asked while holding his hand out to Ash. "I will, and I'll do my best to deserve carrying out your dream." Ash said while giving Brock a handshake.
Unexpectedly, Ash heard Flint's voice. "Brock, you go follow your own dreams!" "Flint!" Ash called out. Flint took off a fake beard and his hat, revealing a man that looked like an older version of Brock. Brock said somewhat madly. "My father!" "You mean you're the good for nothing father that left and never came back?!" Ash asked. "That's right; I couldn't become the great pokemon trainer I wanted to. Because I was such a failure, I was too embarrassed and ashamed to go back to my family?"
"It's time I started taking care of my family. You go fulfill your dreams and mine!" Flint said. "First there's some things I have to tell you." responded Brock. "After all these years, I understand how you must feel about me; so, I want you to get everything off of your chest." Flint said remorsefully.
Brock gave Flint a sewing needle and a roll of string. Brock also had his father take out a pencil and notepad. "Suzie always rips her dresses so you better learn how to sew. And Timmy only eats cold spaghetti for breakfast. Tommy likes cornflakes for dinner." Brock told Flint. "Slow down slow down I can't write that fast!" Flint threw his hands in the air up and down. "Cindy sleepwalks so you have to tie a bell around her wrist. The twins never wanna take a bath so you have to-" Brock continued to tell his father how to take care of his siblings.
"Hey, Ash, are you sure it's okay if I go with you on your pokemon journey?" Brock asked. "Sure! I'm sure. The more the merrier and it's good to have somebody to talk with." Ash answered. "Well, what about that girl that keeps following you?" Brock asked. "Oh, yeah, that's who I was forgetting! She decided to travel with me!" Anorith chirped in agreement. Pikachu nodded his head.
Ash got excited and started to run. "Hey wait up Ash!" Misty and Brock said at the same time from behind him. Team Rocket finally got out of the hole they dug… a second time. Gyarados's Outrage sent them flying back into the hole that they had just gotten out of.
Well, Team Rocket almost got out. A giant drill broke them out. "I told you I'd get us out of this!" said James. "This is all-" Jessie's mood turned from happy to mad in a few seconds. Our trio of heroes accidentally stomped on Team Rocket's heads. "Your fault!" said Jessie.
After getting stomped on four times, three humans and one pokemon, Team Rocket fell back into the hole. "Buried alive, then trampled. We've hit rock bottom!" Well, that's what they said before they fell.
I updated again today! A miracle, am I right or am I right? Well, be prepared because the weekend is ending :/
Anyways, the Anorith thing was kind of a last minute idea. I hope you like this chapter though.
As always, please review! Was it good? Was it bad?
Au revoir~
