Within the Underground Tunnel, a battle wages on between the Rocket grunts and the police officers, some fighting with guns and fists while others use their Pokemon to express their combative side. As the conflict resumes, Leaf rushes through the tunnel, knocking grunt after grunt while searching around for her red capped friend. Noticing something from the corner, she is barely able to move out of the way when something grazes her, its sharp claws punctures the place that she is previously standing at. The Pokemon pulls its claw out of the ground before two females walk from behind the boxes, dressed in the Team Rocket uniform with the only difference being that they wear a skirt instead of pants.
"Sorry but can't let you pass, twerp. One kid was bad enough. Not making that mistake again." She said with her arms crossed. Her partner voices a command, causing her Pokemon to dash towards Leaf, startling the girl as she successfully avoids its attack before her Buneary pops out of her bag and punches the Pokemon, knocking it to the side before the brown rabbit lands gracefully on the ground.
"Buneary, nice one!" The brunette said happily when her Pokemon hopped into her arms, hugging her. She smiles before she looks skeptically at the Normal type before she starts voicing her thoughts. "Wait. How did you fit in my bag?"
Hearing her question, Buneary shrugs before they both turn their attention to the Pokemon who rushes at them again, failing as its claws easily cutting through the boxes behind them like paper, much to its trainer's worry. "Hey! Careful with the cargo, Pawniard. We don't wanna get on the boss' bad side. Now use Metal Claw."
The Pokemon, which is now known as Pawniard, dashes forwards with its claws glowing in a metallic shine before it jumps in the air and starts attacking. As it drove its claws forward, Buneary dodges the move, jumping off the wall before it hears its trainer. "Good, Buneary. Now Thunder Punch."
Its ears crackle with electricity before it curls them back and punches Pawniard which sends it flying into a stack of boxes, much to the grunt's surprise as she runs towards the Pokemon. About to continue, Leaf stops before she notices something at the corner of her eye, dodging a Flamethrower that burns all the useless boxes behind her into remains. Looking at the result of the attack frightened the brunette before she turns to her attackers, eyes widening upon seeing a black lizard beside the other woman, the pattern on its back begins to glow as it spits out flames as intimidation.
"Give up, girly. Or else you'll be turned into a burnt crisp." The woman said in a threatening voice, chuckling as her Pokemon growls angrily.
'A Salandit?' The brunette mentally questioned. Leaf then braced herself as she stares at her opponents, ready to throw out another Pokemon only to be interrupted when the lizard attacks her again, making her back up and hit the wall. Taking the opportunity, the other grunt calls her Pawniard to use another Metal Claw which it obeys as it runs towards her and Buneary while crossing its arms. Getting closer, a smile comes across Leaf's face as she voices a command to her Pokemon. "Buneary, Double Hit to intercept and then spin using Thunder Punch."
Obedient to its trainer, the Normal type trades blows with Pawniard before it spins, coiling its ears before landing a Thunder Punch in the Pokemon's stomach which sends it flying towards Salandit and then into the wall, creating a dent. Using this as an opportunity, she sent out Watortle.
"Water Pulse now!" She said quickly. Watortle was about to use the move but was interrupted when it suddenly started to float in the air, much to Leaf's surprise. The Water type starts panicking and flailing about, trying to get down before it flies towards Buneary, crashing into it and sending both Pokemon to a wall.
"What the?" Leaf said in a bewildered tone before noticing a blue glow at the dark section of the tunnel.
She then sees a man emerging from the shadows with a yellow elephant like Pokemon whose eyes are glowing while moving its hands in a weird spinning motion. Chuckling evilly, he was about to say an order before he gets interrupted, his partner getting hit which made it skid back from its initial position, much to his anger as he glares daggers towards the person that attacked his Pokemon. Everyone turns to see Misty with her Starmie as she walks up beside Leaf, saying. "I know you want to find your boyfriend and all but you need to stick with the plan."
The brunette scoffed, mumbling. "I'm already going with the plan. I'm beating up every grunt that is stupid enough to get in my way."
"Not doing a good job with that. There are three grunts in front of you. And they still have Pokemon." The gym leader rebutted while her Starmie teams up with Leaf's Pokemon. They all hear a dark chuckle, turning their attention towards the male grunt, both confused at his sudden attitude. After a moment, the man slowly stops and begins to laugh in pure rage which unnerved everyone including his own teammates when he furiously scratches his head.
"That's it! I've had it with you damn people!" He exclaimed angrily, panting before continuing. "First, it was that damn kid with the freaky red eyes who just came out of fucking nowhere and started beating us senselessly and now there's two bitches here along with the whole damn police force that suddenly want to fight!"
Misty's eyebrow twitched at the insult as a vein appeared on her forehead, her expression hiding the intense anger inside her which did not go unnoticed by Starmie who backed away from its trainer in fear. The same is for Leaf who gritted her teeth and fists clenches before she hears Red's description when she asks. "Where is Red? What did you do with him?"
"The fuck is red?! You talking about that freaky mute kid?! Who the fuck cares? For all I know, he might be dead!" The man said, chuckling slightly and unaware of the killing glares that he is receiving from the two girls. With their opponents coming closer, both Leaf and Misty went on their guard along with their Pokemon before Pawniard vanishes, startling the two trainers before Leaf had an idea.
"Buneary, Foresight and then Thunder Punch. Watortle, Water Pulse to stop it." The brunette commanded before she hears the gym leader. "Starmie, Psychic."
Before Pawniard could reach, suddenly Buneary focuses on the Pokemon and then hops before it with its ears crackling with electricity and strikes Pawniard in the stomach which send it flying towards the wall while Wartortle starts glowing and summoning a wave of water.
"We're not going to have any of that water shenanigans. Drowzee, if you please." The man said, crossing his arms. Obeying, Drowzee's eyes glow bright blue before it focuses on Wartortle, about to attack when it senses something, dodging Salandit who crashes into a wall, much to Misty and Leaf's bewilderment.
"What the? How did it do that?" The orange haired girl asked.
"You like that, huh? My Drowzee's Forewarn ability allows him to be able to get himself out of almost any situation. Think of it as a danger sensor." The man explained while Drowzee floated, dodging a Water Pulse from Wartortle which knocked away both Salandit and Pawniard.
"Pawniard! Now Dual Chop."
"Drowzee, help them out and use Brick Break"
"Salandit, Now Dragon Rage."
After the grunts spoke, their Pokemon charge towards the female duo using their respective moves when Misty got an idea before she whispers to Leaf. "Leaf, you handle the Salandit. I'll handle the Drowzee and Pawniard. However I need you to do one thing for me. I need a good chance to get that Drowzee off guard."
As she explains the plan, Leaf nods as they both take their position and run towards their opponents alongside their Pokemon, confusing the Rocket grunts. As they are about to clash, the brunette grins as she made the first command. "Buneary, use Double Hit on Salandit and Wartortle, follow it up with a Water Pulse."
"Starmie, use Water Tornado on Pawniard."
As Leaf and Misty made their commands, the Pokemon dash off with Buneary hopping around the tunnel before it smacks Salandit's mouth shut, pummeling it which causes it to stumble back and shake off its attacker. In a dizzy state, the lizard could barely hear its trainer's commands or notice Watortle when it shot a Water Pulse to the Pokemon which hit it, making it descend to the ground. Barely able to get up and ready itself to attack, it shoots its Dragon Rage which the blue turtle dodges as it marvels at the power of the attack. The direction of the attack had the Rocket girl's eyes widening upon realizing where it is heading, screaming at the top of her lungs to her teammates' Pokemon to avoid the blue stream of flames. She was too late as they were surrounded by the Water Tornado which made them get hit by the move, Drowzee taking the blunt of the blow, much to Misty's delight as she takes the opportunity.
'Now I got you.' She thought this, whispering to her Starmie. It nods as it focuses its telekinetic powers on Drowzee while Pawniard was given another command.
Before the yellow elephant could react, its body starts moving on its own as it goes in front of Pawniard, getting hit by its Dual Chop before it is controlled to use Brick Break on the Dark and Steel type which knocked it out cold. Slowly able to control its body due to Psychic wearing off, Drowzee was about to attack before noticing Buneary who jumped off the wall and then descended, connecting its foot to the Psychic type's jaw which slammed it to the ground unconscious.
"That's so cool! What did Buneary just do?" Leaf said in amazement before fishing out her Pokedex out of her bag. Before she was able to get out the device, Misty explains it to her and pushes her forward. "We have no time to be looking at the Pokedex. What Buneary used just now was Jump Kick. A strong fighting type move but be careful when using it. If you miss, it hurts. A lot."
As the pair were about to go further down the tunnel, the grunts lunges at them to only for the male of the group to be tackled into the wall by Misty before he gets hit in the gut by a Water Pulse. The female grunts suffered the same fate as Leaf sprints forward, landing a blow in one of them in the gut before she rushes the next one, kicking her in the face which made her dizzy. Before they were able to get their bearing, the brunette sweep their feet, making them fall on the ground before calling out Roselia to use Stun Spore to make them paralyzed.
"Jeez! Harsh much." Misty commented which made Leaf rolled her eyes before she starts walking off. They continue down the tunnel until they hear sounds of a battle before a flash of light illuminates the area, causing them to cover their eyes while carefully continuing.
When the light subsides, both girls are able to open their eyes, witnessing various Rocket members on the ground along with their Pokemon, some of them immobile and unconscious. Leaf smiles when she notices Red, along with Beedrill and Clefairy, facing off a few grunts, most of their Pokemon fainted on the floor except for a few, one of them looking like a floating snow ghost. Seeing her friend in one piece, Leaf runs up to him, tackling him into a hug which surprises the raven haired teen.
"Red!" She said, snuggling in his jacket and shirt. Still astonished at, the boy notices some tears in her eyes before he returns the hug until she glares at him. "I'm glad that you're ok."
"Never. Do. That. Again." Leaf said in a threatening tone. Her glare manages to unnerve Red who quickly nods in order to make sure not to make her upset. They both then hear a cough, turning to Misty who struts past them, separating the two, much to Red's confusion and Leaf's frustration.
"I'm happy that you found your boo in one piece but if you don't remember, we have Team Rocket members to beat." Misty said, pointing towards the grunts in front of them who are trying to escape. With a pout appearing on her face, the brunette folds her arms and mumbled. "You're just jelly cause you don't have someone to hug."
Hearing Leaf and not bothering to make a rebuttal, Misty scoffed, turning around to see a Sneasel's claws just several inches from her face, much to her surprise. Before she could do or think of anything else, Beedrill extended its stingers, shooting several purple pin like projectiles that quickly hit the Dark type, making it stop its attack and retreat. The Bug-type's stingers starts glowing purple, causing the needles being shot to transform into dark purple pin like blobs that hit Sneasel, knocking it out t cold. Confused by the move Beedrill used, Red quickly checks his Pokedex, not finding any information on the move before he hears someone explains what happened.
"Your Beedrill just used Venoshock. It's a strong Poison type move that increases in strength whenever the opponent gets poisoned. Understand?" Misty explained in an annoyed tone. Red nods, understanding her explanation before she continues. "Now let's get back to knocking these fools. Starmie, Water Pulse now."
"Froslass, Ice Beam." The man said in an emotionless tone, not bothering to look at his opponent.
Obeying its trainer's command, Starmie charged its attack, sending a wave of water that knocked out most of the grunts only for the attack to be stopped and frozen by the Ghost type Pokemon, much to Misty's annoyance. Red notices a Rocket grunt sneaking behind Leaf, taking out his slingshot and shooting the man in his face, causing him to hold his face and scream in agony. The brunette then sees two men behind the raven haired teen, sprinting forward until she lands a blow in the grunt's stomach, knocking the wind out of him before she rushes the other one, sweeping him off his feet. Not missing a step, she grabs him by the arm and slams him into the other thug, knocking both of them unconscious.
'Woah! Note to self: Do not get on Leaf's bad side.' Red thought before he shot another grunt. After commanding Clefairy to take out a Machop, he knocks out two other guards, punching one in his face and shooting another in his temple. Before long, all of the grunts were knocked out, the trio turning their attention towards the man on the other side of the tunnel who plays with his black hair while looking at them with an uncaring and bored expression on his face.
"This…is not good. First, Mt. Moon and this. We're getting some resistances in the last few missions…" The man said unbothered as he walks forward towards the three trainers, his Froslass beside him who he whispered a command to. When the trio hears the police team coming to them, suddenly they are taken out in mere seconds by a Supersonic from a Magneton, much to everyone's surprise. As the man gives it another command to kill them, Red interferes by making his Luxio to use Bite which it did and held onto to the magnet Pokemon before throwing it towards Clefairy to slaps it into a wall. Seeing signs of movement, Buneary quickly hops into the air and kicks the Steel type, driving it further into the wall and rendering it immobile. Unbothered by what happened, the man returns the Pokemon before he whispers again to Froslass, the Pokemon nodding as it approaches the trio. As it disappears from sight in a white mist, the man holds out his hand before saying. "You are all welcome to join us for our cause. Team Rocket is always looking for talent. With your skills, you three could be Admins in no time."
Leaf and Misty looks at each other in confusion at the man's gesture, chuckling until they both loudly mouthed their answer. "NO, YA SCUMBAG!"
The man then turns to Red who shakes his head as a response which made him sigh in an exhausted manner. He then puts his hands in his pocket before he said something in a haunting tone that frightened the three. "Well, too bad. I will have to kill you here."
As he said this, his Froslass appeared behind Leaf and Misty, which did not go unnoticed by Red when he quickly shot a stone at it and then made a command to his Beedrill. "Now…Pursuit."
The Bug type goes to attack Froslass who simply vanishes, appearing at another location which the bee starts to charge the Ice type to then be rewarded with failure once again as its opponent disappears again. Everyone looks around before Misty shouts at Leaf. "Tell your Buneary to use Foresight now, Leaf!"
"Got it. Buneary, Foresight now!" The brunette commanded. The Pokemon's eyes begins to glow before it searches around, noticing Froslass phasing through the ground before it stops by Red, charging a ball of ice in its hands and aiming it at him. The boy seems to sense the Pokemon's presence when he turns around and commands for Beedrill to attack, to which it did only to be hit by its Ice Beam. Red then sees the bee get up, emitting an arrow as it strikes the Ghost type, realizing that the attack pattern of the move is different as the attack seems to be stronger as it sends Froslass flying through the passageway before it lands by its trainer's feet. However, the man was not flinched and simply looked down at the Ice type in disappointment, shaking his head. Suddenly, he did an act that cause Red to be angry and both Leaf and Misty to be frightened.
He stepped on Froslass' head, causing a pained cry to come from the Pokemon.
"Froslass, you need to do better. You cannot be messing up against these mediocre trainers. You need to get your act together. Now get up and don't disappoint me again." The man said calmly, his insult angering both the girls but their anger did not compare to the amount of rage that Red felt. The boy's clenched unto his slingshot, trying his best to calm down, taking deep breaths upon doing so as the battle continues.
"So we're mediocre, huh? Let me show you what a mediocre trainer is." Misty said as Starmie stepped forward. "Starmie, use Water Tornado."
"Buneary, Thunder Punch."
"Dodge the attacks and use Ice Beam…" The man paused, noticing something from the corner of his eye before he continues in a silent tone that the trainers could not pick up. "…on the boy."
Misty then sees the Pokemon becoming transparent again before Stamie and Buneary could hit it. The man watches Red, seeing the look of anger on the teen's face while he silently aims his slingshot to him. The boy's body instinctively recognizes the presence of the Froslass behind him before dodging an Ice Beam and then countering by shooting several rocks at the illusive snow ghost, much to the man's surprise.
'What? Impossible? Is he able to sense ghosts?' He thought, his eyes slowly widening at what he has witnessed. As Red avoids the ghost's attacks, his Beedrill comes to protect him along with Leaf's Wartortle which proves to be futile when it phases through them and then vanishes while the man watches the raven haired teen struggle against his Pokemon's attacks. Having his whole attention on Red, he barely notices Misty and Leaf rushing towards him, the brunette lashing out a flurry of strikes at the man which he dodges nimbly before going for a sweep kick that catches him off guard however he recovers by doing a backflip. Ready to make a counterattack, he barely notices a sphere of water going towards him, almost getting hit by the attack as it grazes his clothes and making a noticeable rip on his uniform. Annoyed by the rip on his clothing, he was barely able to dodge a kick from Leaf before he went on the offensive, lending out a barrage of punches to which the girl blocks skillfully until he sweeps her foot which made her lost balance when she block a drop kick from the man.
"I have to say, that was impressive. You held your own against me skillfully, Ms. Leaf. As expected of Chief Green's daughter. He has taught you well." The man said, making Leaf's wide upon hearing him. Seeing her reaction, he raises a brow before he continues. "Don't tell me you're surprised? You're kind of a celebrity."
Leaf growls before she rushes him again, Misty providing backup for the brunette. As the two girls continues their assault on the man, he tries to attack using Froslass only to realize that the Pokemon is having its hands full with fighting Red and Beedrill, much to his annoyance. Groaning at the level of trouble he is having, he threw another Pokeball which released a Pokemon that looks like a bigger version of Machop and then he stretched his hand.
"Machoke, Brick Break the War-" He said before suddenly getting interrupted as a stone hit him in his face, blood running down his forehead with his face having an angered expression before he turned his glare to Red.
"Machoke, Earthquake." The man said, trying to control his anger as each word coming out of his mouth like poison. Machoke starts flexing before it strikes the ground, causing the tunnel to shake, making some of the ceiling fall on everyone who tries their best to avoid the rubble as much as possible. Misty commands her Starmie to use Psychic which protected her from the falling rocks along with Leaf yelling at her Wartortle to use Protect while running towards Red, who is protecting his Pokemon by returning them, only to be stopped as the Superpower Pokemon made a stomp that parted the tunnel, preventing the brunette from getting to the other side.
"Shit!"
"Damnit!"
Both girls cursed until they hear Machoke running towards, its fists glowing when it start attacking them, creating craters at the places that they were previously occupying as they evaded the punches. Red, on the other hand, was avoiding the falling rocks, trying his best not to lose sight of the Rocket grunt before he senses an ominous presence, getting his Pokeball. Before he was able to throw the capsule, Froslass shoots an Ice Beam at the trainer, missing him and freezing the wall before it made its way towards the trainer. It then vanishes into thin air, catching him off guard as he searches for it and keeping himself alert of any sudden movements. He once again feels the Ghost type's presence, taking out his Pokeball to throw but was interrupted as he is hit with another Ice Beam that knocks the capsule from his hand, much to his dismay as he quickly goes to pick it up.
'Oh no! Nononononono. This is not good.' He thought, seeing the capsule rolling over to the crevice in the middle of the tunnel. Jumping towards the Pokeball, he catches it at the last second before he rolls and gets up, ready to throw the ball until he felt a painful grip on his arm. Turning to see Froslass biting on his arm and drawing blood, Red tries his best to shake off the Ghost type, unable to do much due to its typing however he was not prepared for what was going to happen afterwards. In one swift motion, the Ice type savage tugs his arm, causing him discomfort before a sickening crunch sound echoes throughout the tunnel, creating a wave of intense to shot up from Red's arm to his entire body. Clutching his arm, he yells in pain, his screams echoing through the area, catching the attention of Leaf and Misty along with the grunt who starts to smile.
"Red! Are you alright?" The brunette said, concerned for her friend's safety. When she hears nothing, she starts to get more concerned before Misty puts a reassuring hand on her shoulder, shaking her head before saying. "He'll be fine. Probably much have gotten hit by an attack or something."
"And that's alright? Seriously?!"
"What? He's shown me so far that he's tough." Misty shrugs.
"Tough not invincible. Plus, you heard that scream just now. That's not the scream of someone getting hit by a small attack." Leaf said, clasping her hands and hoping that her friend is alright before she resumes her fight.
Being in intense agony due to his dislocated limb cause the raven haired teen to be unaware of his surroundings as he held his arm in panic, grunting from the discomfort that resonating throughout his whole body. Blinded by the pain, the trainer is unable to realize that his Luxio came out of its Pokeball, fighting off Froslass and sending it retreating to its boss, making Leaf and Misty have to deal with both Froslass and Machoke. The battle was going to continue until the police came, on guard with their weapons and Pokemon on hand, much to the frustration of the Rocket grunt.
"Freeze! Hands where I can see them!" One of the officers shouted, all of them getting ready as they aimed their weapons at him with their partners awaiting orders in an alert position and some checking on the conditions of Leaf and Misty.
"Oh! Leader Misty! Nice to see that you're doing ok." The orange haired girl heard, seeing the policeman that she spoke with earlier.
"Hey! You're that dude from earlier. Hmm…"
"Don't worry. I didn't tell you my name. C'mon." He said before he helps her up, bringing her with the rest of the injured to the.
Seeing the situation that he's in, the grunt clicked his teeth in frustration before he hears something, taking his phone and smiling at the message. Putting the device in this pocket, he made a command that made everyone instantly back away, some of them quickly and urgently retreating out of the tunnel after they heard what he said. "Earthquake."
Machoke obeys, stomping the floor with all its strength, causing the tunnel to shake violently before part of the ceiling descended. As this occurred, everyone ran in different directions in a panicked manner, some to shelters within the rubbles and others trying to run out of the cave. Seeing the result and everyone's expressions, the man smiles before he escapes with his Machoke and Froslass, leaving everyone to die in the tunnel.
"Farewell." The man said as everyone took cover, some people closing their eyes as they waited for the incident to finish.
After what seems to be an eternity, the area finished shaking and the place became quiet, the only sounds able to be heard is the dirt descending to the floor. Noticing that everything is silent, Leaf opens her eyes and gasps when she witnesses the results of the attack as she walks around the tunnel, seeing that it's severely destroyed before she sees that the direction to Cerulean City is blocked by a wall of rubble. Looking around for survivors, Leaf is unable to find anyone until she hears a muffled sound by some rubble before noticing electricity and light being emitted inside the rubble which pushes away and destroys some of the stones and boulders, showing Luxio's face.
"Isn't that Red's Luxio?" The brunette recognized, running quickly to the Pokemon. Noticing her, it starts growling before it recognizes who she is, making cries for help. She crouches down and, along with her Wartortle, assists in moving the rubble which made Luxio able to escape. Leaf was about to ask about the whereabouts of its trainer until she notices it dragging something out from inside the rubble which is an unconscious and bloodied Red.
"Oh no! Red!" She shouted in worry. She quickly takes out his body from under the rubble, wincing as she sees the unnatural direction that his arm is bent into. Tending to his wounds and trying her best to create a good case for his arm while restraining it in place, her thoughts wandering off as she wipes his face. 'What the hell happened, Red?'
Finishing with him, she rests his head on her lap, leaning on the wall of the tunnel as she waits for him to wake up.
'Guessing by the direction of the light, if we continue on this path, we'll reach Vermilion City. Damn it! I can't believe I sprained my leg and Red's whole arm is dislocated. At least we're alive, I guess.' She thought before carefully going through her options until she sees the light at the end of the tunnel changing to an orange hue. After a couple of hours, Red's eyes starts to flutter open, observing the area before he immediately notices the sleeping face of Leaf above him which causes him to blush a little when he lifts his good hand and pokes her cheek, making her face shake it off as she resumes sleeping.
Red tries to get up but felt an intense pain resonating through his arm which made him have to fall back and rest, waking up the brunette from her sleep before she starts rubbing her eyes and yawns. Noticing that her friend is awake, Leaf's eyes widen before she descends her head, making their foreheads until he hears sobbing sounds. He then tries, despite all the pain that he is in as of the moment, to comfort the girl by putting his hand on her shoulder patting her.
"I thought…I thought I was going to lose you. You were barely breathing." She said between sobs, tracing finger across Red's face. He once again attempts to get up but is once again awarded with failure however it is not due to the pain but to a force pushing him down as he looks up and sees a serious expression on Leaf's face.
"Oh no! You're resting. You thought your arm is the only thing that's fucked up. Your head was bleeding as well. I'm just glad that you're still alive from that." She scolded when she lean back on the wall. She then turns her head to look at the moonlight that is shining from the staircase of the tunnel. The boy tries once again to move, informing the brunette that he is ok and she should be worried about herself however it falls on deaf ears as he ends up back on her lap with her hands holding him in place.
"Sorry, Red. Can't do that." Leaf said sternly, much to her black haired companion's frustration before she whistled. When she did so, Luxio comes down the tunnel with some Berries before it sees its trainer conscious, hugging Red. Despite the pain that travelled through his body, Red tries his best to hug his Electric type partner with one hand as it snuggles against him.
"I'm glad that you're alright, Luxio." The teen said, his voice barely audible as he held a smile on his face.
'I'm glad that you're alright as well, Master. You had me and everyone else worried.' Red heard from Lusio. Upon recognizing what happened, his smile fell before he opened his wide as he mentally exclaims what he is thinking.
'Wait. WHAAAAATTTT?'
Sup, guys? Enigma here. Once again, sorry for the long chapter. I just wanted to get over this as much as possible and get out of the Cerulean City arc. Hope you like the chapter, we're almost to Vermilion City. Also, let me know how the story is so far. I made it that Team Rocket is a lot different and more secretive than they are in the games. Also, their Pokemon and teams have rare or powerful Pokemon with good moves because well, they're thieves so why should they play by the rules. Hope you like the fact that the tunnel battle. The blockout will take a while before it is cleared so they're unable to get to Cerulean City now. Like to know your feedbacks if you have any and please stay safe and healthy. Enigma out.
