Battle of Titanic Proportions
On the way to where Stan, Kyle, Kenny, and Cartman were so he can help them battle the Titan Pokemon; Lincoln took the time to train his Pokemon a bit more to make sure they were strong enough. During the training, his Crocalor learned Yawn, and his Pawmi learned Dig. All Lincoln's other Pokemon got stronger as well. In fact, after the training, Lincoln's Tarountula evolved into Spidops, a green and brownish yellow Pokemon that stood on her back four legs and used her front four legs like arms. Her abdomen looked like it was wrapped in a white bandage, she now had only two eyes and she looked like she was wearing torso armor. Lincoln pulled out his Rotom Phone to learn more about the new Pokemon.
"Spidops, the Trap Pokemon, and the evolved form of Tarountula. It clings to branches and ceilings using its threads and moves without a sound. It takes out its prey before the prey even notices it." said the Rotom Phone. After that, Lincoln sent her to storage and got his Smoliv to train. His Smoliv is a boy who already knew Tackle, Sweet Scent, Absorb, and Growth, plus has the Early Bird ability which cuts the duration for a sleep status condition he'd be afflicted with in half. After some training, he learned Razor Leaf and Helping Hand.
"I don't know how strong these Titan Pokemon are, but I'm sure that if we work together and believe in our Pokemon, we can take them all down." said Lincoln. Lincoln soon reached the west gate of Mesagoza and enters the city. He soon reaches the east gate and enters it to see a rocky area with small plateaus everywhere. "Now where are Stan and the others?" Lincoln looks at his Rotom Phone map and sees a Pokemon Center. "Maybe they'll be there. I'll head there and wait for them." As Lincoln walks towards the Pokemon Center, he takes the opportunity to capture Pokemon for his collection. He caught a Nacli, a Shinx, a Makuhita, and a Bronzor. He soon reached the Pokemon Center and sees Stan, Kyle, Cartman, Kenny, and a boy with blonde hair he never seen before, having lunch. He walks over to them and Stan notices him and waves.
"Hey, Lincoln." said Stan.
"Hey, guys." said Lincoln.
"Who's this, fellas?" asked Butters.
"This is Lincoln Loud. The boy we called earlier back at my house. Lincoln, this is a friend of ours from our hometown back in America; Leopold Stotch, but we all call him Butters." said Stan.
"Nice to meet you, Butters." said Lincoln.
"Nice to meet you too, Lincoln." said Butters. Butters then notices Lincoln's white hair. "Why did you dye your hair white?"
"It's not dye, dude. That's actually Lincoln's natural hair color." said Kenny.
"Really? How come?" asked Butters.
"I've been trying to figure that out for years, but I decided to stop wondering about it because it wasn't that big of a deal." said Lincoln.
"Oh." said Butters.
"So how are you doing, Lincoln?" asked Kyle.
"Awesome. I got my first gym badge." said Lincoln as he shows them his Cortondo City gym badge.
"Cool." said Kyle. Lincoln then notices Butters' bruises.
"What happened to him? Were you attacked by wild Pokemon?!" asked Lincoln.
"We have some explaining to do." said Kyle. He then explained to Lincoln what happened to Butters back in South Park and it was safe to say that Lincoln was shocked.
"I can't believe this! And I thought what my dad was bad for what he and the rest of my family did to me; but what Butters' parents did to him was so horrible there aren't any words in any language, in any world, in any galaxy, in any universe, that can even remotely describe it! If Butters' dad was here, I'd have Pawmi zap him with enough electricity to power Mesagoza for a month!" yelled Lincoln.
"We all know how you feel, dude. But at least Butters is doing well and as far from his ex-parents as humanly possible." said Stan.
"Yeah, I guess that's true." said Lincoln. Butters then wondered about something that Lincoln said before.
"Lincoln? What did your family do to you?" asked Butters.
"Get this, dude. His family threw him out onto the streets because of some superstition with just the clothes on his back which was just a pair of pajamas." said Kyle. Butters was shocked.
"Well that's just not nice." said Butters. Lincoln walks over to the Pokemon Center and gave the nurse his Pokemon, then returns to Stan and his friends.
"Want to have some lunch while we wait for our Pokemon to heal?" asked Cartman.
"Sure." said Lincoln. Minutes later, as they were eating sandwiches, Lincoln turns to Stan. "So where's this Titan Pokemon?"
"It's a little far from here. We'll bring you to it as soon as we get our Pokemon back." said Kenny.
"What's the Titan Pokemon like?" asked Lincoln.
"Well it's a giant Klawf. They're rock type Pokemon so you'll need Pokemon that know water, grass, ground, fighting, and steel type moves to do a lot of damage to it." said Stan.
"Well my Pawmi learned Dig a while ago so I have a ground type move I can use. I also have a Smoliv that knows some grass attacks. " said Lincoln.
"Good." said Stan. After they finished eating, the nurse announced their Pokemon were healed and the boys got them back. As they left the Pokemon Center, they saw Arven running towards them.
"Where is it?! Where's the Titan Pokemon?!" asked Arven. He then noticed Butters. "Who's he?"
"Oh. This is a friend of our from our hometown. His name is Butters. Butters, this is Arven, another friend of ours." said Stan.
"It's nice to meet you, Arven." said Butters.
"It's nice to meet you too." said Arven.
"Okay, Arven. That Titan Pokemon is close by. We were just heading to where he is." said Kyle.
"Great. Lead the way." said Arven. The seven went to the cliff wall where they saw the giant Klawf and see that it was still there.
"There it is." said Cartman.
"Thanks for finding it, guys." said Arven. The giant Klawf looks towards the group and lets out a loud roar. Suddenly, a large group of Klawfs appeared and surround the seven boys and start snapping their claws at them.
"Looks like that Titan Pokemon has some friends." said Lincoln.
"And they look like they want to fight." said Kenny.
"Well let's give them what they want." said Cartman. Stan releases Quaxwell, Kyle releases his Floragato, Cartman releases his Crocalor and Magikarp, Kenny releases his Wooper, Butters releases his Skiddo and Tinkatink, Lincoln releases his Pawmi, Crocalor, Rockruff, and Smoliv; and Arven releases a Shellder. Lincoln looks at Cartman's Crocalor.
"Whoa. Your Crocalor evolved also?" asked Lincoln.
"Yeah. I take it yours did too?" replied Cartman.
"Yeah. Why do you have your Magikarp out?" asked Lincoln.
"He may not have any moves that are super effective against rock types, but I want him to at least get some experience. I really want Magikarp to evolve." said Cartman.
"Good call." said Lincoln.
"Guys, get ready. They're coming at us." said Kyle. The battle soon began with the boys going all out. Stan's Quaxwell attacked Klawfs left and right with his water type moves, Kyle's Floragato attacked them grass type moves, Cartman's Crocalor attacked with Bite while his Magikarp used Tackle with little effect, Kenny's Wooper hit them with Mud Shots, Butters' Skiddo attacked with grass type moves while Tinkatink used Metal Claw, Lincoln's Pawmi used Dig mostly but still used his electric attacks while his Crocalor also used Bite, his Rockruff used Rock Throw, his Smoliv used grass type moves along with using Helping Hand to help support the others, and Arven's Shellder used water type moves. While they were all battling, they noticed that some of the Klawfs got angry which made their attacks stronger and increase their speed.
"Watch it, guys. Some of these Klawfs seem to have the Anger Shell ability." said Stan.
"What's that, Stan?" asked Butters.
"It's an ability which increases their attack powers and speed when they get hit." said Stan.
"Yeah, but it also weakens their defenses so that gives us some sort of edge." said Kyle. After a while, the horde of Klawfs got a lot smaller. As Lincoln's Pawmi kept battling, he was starting to get shaky which Lincoln notices.
"Pawmi. Are you okay? Do you want to rest?" asked Lincoln. Pawmi's body tightened and he lets out a loud yell and suddenly starts to glow. Everyone stops when they notice this.
"Dude! Your Pawmi's evolving!" said Stan. They all watch as Pawmi starts to change. When the glowing stopped, they saw that Pawmi's fur was a lighter shade of orange, he stood upright, and his arms were longer and had five fingers instead of three. Lincoln takes out his Rotom Phone and points it at his newly evolved Pawmi.
"Pawmo, the Mouse Pokemon, and the evolved form of Pawmi. When its group is attacked, Pawmo is the first to leap into battle, defeating enemies with a fighting technique that utilizes electric shocks." said the Rotom Phone.
"This...is...AWESOME!" said Lincoln. "My Rotom Phone says that Pawmo is part electric and part fighting type now; he lost his Static ability and he has Volt Absorb now which heals him a bit if he's hit with an electric type move, and he just learned Arm Thrust which is a fighting type move." Lincoln turns and sees a Klawf that was sneaking up on him. "Pawmo, use Arm Thrust!" Pawmo runs at Klawf and starts hitting it with a barrage of palm thrusts, doing super effective damage and knocking it on its back. With Cartman, he was watching his Crocalor using Bite on another Klawf. What he didn't realize was above him latched onto the side of a cliff wall was another Klawf that was staring down at him. It releases itself from the wall and starts to drop towards Cartman. Stan sees this and tries to warn him.
"Cartman, above you!" yells Stan. Cartman looks up and sees the Klawf falling towards him. Suddenly, Magikarp slaps his tail into the ground to propel himself at the Klawf and slam into it with a Tackle attack, knocking it away from Cartman. Cartman runs to Magikarp and starts stroking his head.
"Magikarp. You saved me. Thanks a lot, dude." said Cartman. Magikarp suddenly starts flopping around on the ground rapidly, confusing him. "Are you okay, Magikarp?" As soon as he asked that, Magikarp started to glow.
"Cartman! Magikarp's evolving!" said Butters. When Magikarp stopped glowing, everyone was stunned by his new appearance. Magikarp was longer, he was sky blue with a yellow underbelly, he had white fins all along his back, a navy blue, three-pointed crest on his forehead, he has fins on each side of his face, and his mouth had sharp teeth sticking out of them. Cartman could only stare at his newly-evolved Pokemon as he points his Rotom Phone at him.
"Gyarados, the Atrocious Pokemon, and the evolved form of Magikarp. Once it appears, it goes on a rampage. It remains enraged until it destroys everything around it." said the Rotom Phone.
"SWEEEEEEEEEEEET!" says Cartman as he picks up Butters in a hug and starts spinning in circles. "This is so cool you guys! My Magikarp is Gyarados now! Can you believe it you guys?!" Cartman sets Butters, who was dizzy after the spinning, gently down on the ground and looks at his Rotom Phone at more information on his new Gyarados. "This says that he's part water and part flying type, he has a lot of new attacks now like Bite, Leer, Twister, Flail, Whirlpool, Ice Fang, Brine, and Scary Face." Gyarados looks at the remaining Klawfs and glares and growls at them, making them tremble. "Oh yeah. He has the Intimidate ability now which can weaken the attack strengths of his opponents."
"Congratulations, Cartman. Gyarados will definitely be a strong addition to your team." said Lincoln.
"Thanks, dude." said Cartman. The other Klawfs, seeing that they were slightly outmatched ran away from the boys and their Pokemon. All that remained was the Titan Pokemon who was staring down at them. Suddenly, he starts climbing up the cliff wall he was latched to, to the top of the plateau it was part of. Looking around, Kyle sees a path which looks like it leads up the plateau.
"Guys. Let's take that path and cut it off at the top." said Kyle.
"Let's get it." said Stan. The boys return their Pokemon and started running up the path and reached the top where the giant Klawf was waiting. The boys then surround it and each bring out a Pokemon. Lincoln brings out Pawmo, Stan brings out Quaxwell, Kyle brings out Floragato, Cartman brings out Gyarados, Kenny brings out Wooper, Butters brings out Skiddo, and Arven brings out Shellder. Cartman's Gyarados glares at the giant Klawf and his Intimidate weakens its attack power.
"I love that Intimidate ability." said Cartman. Butters looks at Skiddo and remembers what Cartman said about Skiddo's Worry Seed attack does."
"Okay, Skiddo. Hit that Titan Pokemon with Worry Seed." said Butters. Skiddo launches a black seed which attaches itself to Klawf and starts turning it dark gray.
"What did you do, Butters?" asked Kyle.
"Eric told me how Worry Seed can change a Pokemon's ability from what it normally has to Insomnia. If this Klawf had that Anger Shell ability, it doesn't have it anymore so it won't get stronger and faster if we attack it." explained Butters. Everyone looked impressed.
"That's an awesome move Butters" said Stan.
"Yeah." said Cartman.
"Thanks, fellas." said Butters. Everyone then focuses on the giant Klawf.
"Pawmo, use Arm Thrust!" said Lincoln.
"Quaxwell, use Water Pulse!" said Stan.
"Floragato, use Magical Leaf!" said Kyle.
"Gyarados, use Brine!" said Cartman.
"Wooper, use Mud Shot!" said Kenny.
"Skiddo, use Razor Leaf!" said Butters.
"Shellder, use Water Gun!" said Arven. All the Pokemon hit the Titan Pokemon with their attacks and do super effective damage, along with lowering its speed thanks to Wooper's Mud Shot's secondary effect. Realizing that it was completely outmatched right now, the Klawf jumps off the plateau to the ground below.
"He's trying to get away you guys." said Cartman.
"Not if we have anything to say about that." said Stan. The boys and their Pokemon went back down the path to where they were before and watch as the Klawf was digging into the side of the plateau.
"What's it doing?" asked Kyle.
"It looks like it's digging for something." said Kenny.
"Maybe it's trying to dig an escape route." said Stan. Their question was answered when the Klawf reached into the hole it dug and pulls out what looked like a glowing pink herb. Arven's eyes widen when he realized what it had.
"That's an Herba Mystica!" says Arven. They watch as the Klawf eats the Herba Mystica and begins surging with energy.
"Whoa! Those Herba Mystica must be very powerful!" says Lincoln. The Klawf stares at the boys and their Pokemon and swings one of its claws down towards them. The boys and their Pokemon jump back and were barely able to dodge the claw as it shattered the ground it hit.
"That must be Rock Smash. Be careful you guys." said Stan. Klawf then looks at Cartman's Gyarados and throws rocks at him, doing super effective damage.
"That's Rock Throw! Since Gyarados is part flying type now, it must've done super effective damage to him." said Kenny.
"Oh yeah?! Well we're not going to just take that, are we Gyarados?!" said Cartman. Gyarados looks at Cartman and nods as he growls. "That's right! Now hit it with Brine!" Gyarados releases a powerful stream of water from his mouth which hits the giant Klawf, doing a lot of damage to it with enough force to send a shockwave which forces everyone to shield themselves with their arms.
"Whoa. That was some attack." said Arven.
"Well Brine's power doubles when the target Pokemon that it's used on has half its stamina remaining." said Lincoln.
"Ha! Take that, Klawf!" said Cartman.
"Okay, let's end this!" said Stan. Everyone's Pokemon hit the giant Klawf with their most effective attacks at once, sending the Klawf flying into the cliff wall and knocking it out.
"We did it. We beat a Titan Pokemon!" said Arven. Everyone starts cheering in celebration at their achievement. Lincoln then looks at the hole that the Klawf pulled the Herba Mystica out of.
"Do you think there's any more of that Herba Mystica in that hole?" asked Lincoln, getting Arven's attention.
"Let's go in and see before that Titan Pokemon wakes up." said Arven. He, Lincoln, Stan, Kyle, Cartman, Kenny, and Butters entered the hole and found themselves inside a big cavern. They looked around until Arven sees a glowing pink herb nearby, he runs over to it. "This is one of the Herba Mystica. This is how it looked in the book. This is the Sweet Herba Mystica." Arven grabs it and pulls it off the ground. "Yes! We found it. Thank you guys for helping out."
"No problem, dude." replied Kyle. Arven pulls a book out of his backpack and opens it. "According to this, the Sweet Herba Mystica is good for gut health and helps aid digestion. It's good for stomachaches or when you want to stimulate your appetite."
"Cool." said Kenny. Arven rolls up his sleeves.
"All right, boys, you're about to get a taste of my cooking." said Arven. Minutes later, Arven has several sandwiches set up on a picnic table he set up. "Here you go. An Arven-original packed full of herbs, and as a thank you for taking on that Titan Pokemon, I'm going to give each of you a badge."
"Whoa, really?" said Cartman. Arven reaches into his backpack and pulls out six badges.
"Yes. I call them Titan Badges, made them myself." replied Arven. He gives Lincoln, Stan, Kyle, Cartman, Kenny, and Butters each a Titan Badge.
"Wow. Thanks, Arven." said Lincoln.
"No problem." replied Arven. Minutes later, they were sitting on rocks, each holding a sandwich.
"Man these look good." said Stan.
"Let's eat up, guys." said Kyle. Just then, their Koraidons pop out of their pokeballs and look at the boys' sandwiches.
"Are you guys hungry?" asked Lincoln. The Koraidons sniff at Lincoln, Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny's sandwiches and ate them out of their hands.
"Hey! Those sandwiches were for my friends, not you guys!" yelled Arven. Just then, the five Koraidon suddenly started surging with energy.
"Whoa! What's up with the Koraidons?" asked Kyle.
"The Herba Mystica in the sandwiches must've restored some of their strength." said Kenny. Just then, the boys Rotom Phones started to ring. They turn on video chat and saw Professor Sada on the screen.
"Pardon me, boys. But my sensors say that the energy of your Koraidons suddenly increased. What happened?" asked Professor Sada. The boys explained what happened with the Titan Pokemon and the Herba Mystica. "It seems that the Herba Mysticas' restorative properties aren't a myth after all. Because of their increase in energy, your Koraidon should be able to dash in a burst of speed, allowing you to travel faster."
"Cool." said Kenny.
"Perhaps if you found the other Herba Mystica and feed them to your Koraidons, they'll regain more of their abilities." said Professor Sada.
"If that's the case, we'll definitely keep searching for them." said Lincoln.
"You do that. In the meantime, I'll continue my work here at my Area Zero lab." said Professor Sada.
"Okay. We'll let you know if we find them." said Stan.
"Thanks. Bye." said Professor Sada. She then hangs up, leaving the boys to their thoughts.
"So, we should look for the other Herba Mystica as well." said Kenny.
"Yeah. Maybe our Koraidon will get more sweet abilities when we feed the Herba Mystica to them." said Cartman.
"Let's go, guys." said Kyle. As Stan, Kyle, Cartman, Kenny, Butters, and Lincoln started to leave the cavern, they notice that Arven wasn't following after them.
"Arven. Aren't you coming?" asked Lincoln.
"You guys go ahead. I have something to take care of here." said Arven.
"Okay. See you later." said Kyle. After the boys left the cavern, Arven takes a pokeball out of his pocket.
"Okay buddy. Now it's your turn." said Arven.
