Chapter 9: Path to Home and the Start of a New Frontier Part 3
'Last time, Ash and Dante arrived back in Kanto with Brock before heading for Pallet Town, along the way they met Scott and Agatha and they were challenged by her to a battle. It was Pikachu and Houndoom vs Gengar now how will the battle end?'
"Let the battle begin!" said Scott.
"Okay Pikachu use your quick attack!" said Ash.
"PIKA!" Pikachu took off with speed with white streaks behind it, charging at Gengar before going through it not landing a hit.
"PIKA!?" he exclaimed as Gengar smirked.
"Oh right! Normal type moves don't work on Ghost Pokémon," said Ash smacking his forehead.
"How can you forget that? Gengar use Shadow Ball!" said Agatha.
Gengar formed a black ball in its hands covered in blue electricity and fired it at Pikachu.
"Pikachu dodge it and use Thunderbolt!" said Ash.
Pikachu jumped out of the way and then charged up a blast of lightning at Gengar.
But Gengar simply became flat on the ground and avoided the attack and got behind Pikachu.
"Pikachu turn and use Iron Tail!" shouted Ash.
"CHUUUUUUUUUUUU-PIKA!" said Pikachu as his tail turned silver and slammed Gengar into the wall.
This made Scott and Agatha impressed.
"Alright Pikachu!" said Ash.
"That's good Ash but don't get overconfident let me have a go," said Dante and Ash let him.
"Alright Houndoom use Odor Sleuth," said Dante.
"ARF!" he barked as he sniffed the arena and then found Gengar and barked loudly.
"Now fighting and normal type moves can be used on Gengar," said Dante "Houndoom use Shadow Ball!"
Houndoom formed a black ball in its mouth and fired at Gengar.
"Gengar dodge it!" said Agatha.
But it was too late and Gengar got hit but it was far from down.
"Pikachu use Iron Tail again!" said Ash.
Pikachu charged in with its tail once again glowing metallic silver.
"Use Double Team!" called Agatha.
"GEEENNNGAARRR!" it said making multiple copies of itself and surrounding the two Pokémon.
Pikachu and Houndoom looked around trying to find the real Gengar.
"Now use Shadow Ball!" called Agatha.
All the Gengar's began forming shadow balls.
Ash tried to figure out which one was the real Gengar and was about to have Pikachu use Thunderbolt but Dante stopped him.
"I've got an idea," he said "Pikachu jump on Houndoom."
Surprised but nodded Pikachu jumped onto Houndoom's back.
"Watch this Ash," said Dante. "Houndoom jump and use Fire Spin!"
Houndoom jumped high in the air and then unleashed a spiraling flame from its mouth and took out the copies leaving the real Gengar exposed.
Gengar then fired the Shadow Ball at them and Ash seized the chance.
"Pikachu jump and then use Iron Tail!" said Ash.
Pikachu then jumped from Houndoom and dived down with his tail glowing bright, hitting Gengar directly and sending it sliding across the floor.
"Wow right on the nose," said Scott.
Gengar then got back up but it had taken some damage.
"Pikachu finish this with Thunder!" said Ash.
"PIKAAAAAAAAAAAA…" said Pikachu as he was about to use Thunder when Agatha made her move and so did Dante.
"Gengar use Hypnosis!" she shouted.
"Houndoom get in front of Pikachu NOW!" shouted Dante.
Houndoom got in front of Pikachu in time just as Gengar used Hypnosis by sending images of its eyes to get to Pikachu but Houndoom got in the way to stop it.
"What?" Agatha said surprised.
Gengar's hypnosis hit Houndoom and it went to sleep.
"Now Ash!" said Dante.
"Pikachu do it!" shouted Ash.
"PIKKKKKKKKKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-CHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" And Pikachu unleashed a huge electric blast and hit Gengar making it shout in pain.
Then Houndoom woke up surprising Agatha.
"How?" she said surprised.
"Because of its ability Early Bird. While sleep moves does work on dark Pokémon thanks to Early Bird the time limit of it is shortened," said Dante.
"So Dream Eater won't work on Houndoom if it's awake." He added.
Agatha was in trouble now but kept her composure.
"Gengar use Shadow Punch!" she said.
"GENNGAR!" it said and fired a shadowy fist.
"Houndoom use Flamethrower!" said Dante.
Houndoom let out a stream of fire that countered the Shadow Punch, stopping the attack.
Gengar was in trouble now and it was really exhausted.
"Pikachu/Houndoom!" said Ash and Dante. "Use Thunderbolt/Flamethrower!"
"PIKAAAAACHHHHHHHHHHHHHHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" Pikachu fired a blast of lightning as Houndoom fired a stream of fire at the same time.
The Thunderbolt wrapped around the Flamethrower as the combo attacks slammed on Gengar hard, sending it flying into the wall. Gengar felt a lot of pain from the attacks and when it stopped Gengar fell to the floor and was on its back with swirly eyes.
"Gengar!" Agatha cried.
"Gengar is unable to battle, Pikachu and Houndoom win. Victories go to Ash and Dante!" said Scott raising his left hand.
"Alright!" said Ash and Dante hi-fiving each other as Pikachu and Houndoom smirked.
"Gengar are you okay?" asked Agatha.
Gengar got up slowly and nodded.
"You put up a good fight my friend now get a good rest," she said returning Gengar to its Pokéball.
Pikachu and Houndoom went to their trainers.
"You did great buddy!" Ash said to Pikachu.
"Pika!" said Pikachu.
"You did great as well Houndoom I'm sure your friends will like to hear how you and Pikachu beat a Gengar," Said Dante.
Houndoom grunted in agreement.
"Good now get a good rest," Dante said returning Houndoom.
"Well I never thought that you two would beat me nice work to both of you. You showed me some creativity and gave a good battle," said Agatha.
"Thanks Agatha you put up a tough fight," said Ash.
"Well what do you expect when battling a member of the Elite Four," said Scott.
"The Elite Four?" said Ash surprised.
"That's right," replied Scott.
"The official Gym Leader hasn't arrived yet so I'm filling in as a substitute, I just thought if you knew it would intimate you," said Agatha.
"Yeah it would have," said Ash.
"But because you didn't know, you and Dante fought a good hard battle. You and Pikachu keep training and you'll go far." She continued.
"Thanks that's what we want too," Ash said with a smile.
"Pika-Pika!" said Pikachu.
Ash, Dante and Scott then left the gym, unaware that Team Rocket were in the balloon watching.
"I hate to admit it but that twerp's Pikachu is really something," said Jessie.
"Even one of the Elite Four recognize how strong it is." Added James.
"If we can snag that Pikachu and give it to the boss..." said Meowth.
"We have it made and finally get paid, what a blast!" they said.
"Wobbuffet!" said Wobbuffet.
They hid the balloon on the roof.
"Wow we were battling one of the Elite Four without knowing it," said Ash in awe with Pikachu agreeing with him.
"Are you still interested in the Battle Frontier I mentioned earlier?" asked Scott. "I should warn you that the trainers there are every bit strong as Agatha." He added.
"Sounds good to me," said Ash.
Team Rocket popped up and eavesdropped on them.
"Okay I'll explain how it works," said Scott. "The Battle Frontier is made up of 7 different battle facilities spread out through Kanto. Each of the 7 sites has a Frontier Brain, basically the same thing as a Gym Leader but very powerful. Challengers have to battle and defeat the Frontier Brain and earn that Frontier's symbol.." He continued.
"What's a Frontier symbol?" asked Ash.
"Sort of like a gym badge for that Frontier facility, but here's the catch, you'll be given the location of 6 facilities and only if you earn 6 frontiers symbols will you be given the location of the secret one; the seventh." Finished Scott.
"Hey, that sounds pretty cool to me!" said Ash.
"Well I'm glad to hear it," said Scott.
This made Team Rocket intrigued and that made them want to expand and conquer.
"Well Ash what do you say?" said Scott.
"Yep I'll do it!" answered Ash with Pikachu agreeing.
Just then a red claw came out and grabbed Pikachu and pulled him back to the roof where Team Rocket's balloon came up with Pikachu in tow.
"PIKACHU!" said Ash.
"Where did that come from?" said Scott.
Just then a familiar laugh came and Ash and Dante knew who it was.
"Prepare for trouble from the skies..."
"From beyond the stars a nasty surprise!"
"An evil as old as galaxy..."
"Sent here to fulfill our destiny!"
"Plus, there's me!"
"To denounce the evils of truth and love!"
"To extend our reach to the stars above!"
"Jessie!"
"And James!"
"And Meowth are the names!"
"Anywhere there's peace in the universe..."
"Team Rocket will be there..."
"To make everything worse!"
"Wobbuffet!"
"Chime chime!"
"Team Rocket!" said Ash angrily.
"Oh great not Giovanni's lackeys again," said Dante feeling his anger rising.
"Who are they?" said Scott.
"It's understandable that you didn't recognize us that's our new and improved team motto." said Jessie.
"So there you go!" said James.
"And here we go!" said the trio taking off.
"Stop!" said Ash running towards them.
Then a barrage of light blue 'S' shaped energy headed towards Team Rocket and cut the metal rope freeing Pikachu and Ash caught him in time.
"Pikachu!" said Ash.
"Pika-pi!" said Pikachu.
Team Rocket gasped at their quarry getting away and wondered who did it.
It was Agatha and her Golbat using Air Cutter.
"Stealing pokémon isn't welcome here. You should leave while you have the chance." Agatha warned.
"And you should think twice before you threaten us!" replied Jessie "Go Seviper, Arbok!"
Out came the fang snake Pokémon Seviper and the cobra Pokémon Arbok.
"SEVIPER! CHARRBOKKAA!"
"Cacnea and Weezing! You too!" said James.
"Weezing! Cacnea!" Then Cacnea latched on to James.
"Stop it didn't this go out with the old Team Rocket?!" said James.
"Use Bite Seviper and Arbok use Poison Sting!" said Jessie.
Seviper moved in with its jaw open and Arbok fired multiple white darts from its mouth.
"Go Haunter!" said Dante.
"Haunter!" said the gas Pokémon.
"Haunter use Psychic on Arbok!" said Dante.
Haunter's eye glowed purple and stopped Poison Sting and then grabbed Arbok and sent it flying back to Jessie.
"Use Quick Attack Pikachu!" said Ash.
Pikachu moved with a white streak and avoided Bite and grabbed Seviper by the tail and threw it upwards.
"Now Thunderbolt Pikachu!." Ash said.
"PIKAACHUUUUUUUU!" Pikachu fired a blast of electricity at Seviper and it hit Jessie and Arbok hit them as well.
"Whoa right in the kisser.." said Scott.
"Cacnea use Pin Missile and Weezing use sludge!" said James.
The spikes on Cacnea's arms glowed white and shot white, arrow-shaped streams of pins while Weezing spewed dark brown sludge from the mouth on its larger body.
"Use Supersonic Golbat!" said Agatha.
"Counter with Shadow Ball Haunter!" said Dante.
Golbat flew in front of Pikachu and released multiple transparent circles from its mouth, sending Pin Missile back to Team Rocket who panicked.
Haunter formed a dark ball in its hand and fired at the Sludge attack, stopping it and sending Weezing back to the balloon.
"Now use Air Cutter Golbat!" Shouted Agatha.
"Hit them with Thunderbolt Pikachu!" said Ash.
"Haunter Night Shade let's go!" shouted Dante.
"PIKACHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" Pikachu unleashed a powerful bolt of yellow electricity from its body.
"HAUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" Haunter fired black and red lasers from its eyes.
Golbat released light blue 'S' shaped energy disks from its mouth at Team Rocket's balloon.
Thunderbolt and Night Shade hit them while Air Cutter made a hole causing an explosion that send them flying.
"Why's new Team Rocket ending the same old way?" complained Jessie.
"I say out with the new and in with the old," said James.
"It's good to know that the more things change the more they stay the same.." Added Meowth.
"Team Rocket's blasting off again!" they said before they vanished.
After dealing with them, Scott got back in his car and started it up.
"Hitting the road again already?" said Agatha.
"Yep the trainers won't come to the Battle Frontier by themselves I've gotta keep looking for them." Said Scott.
"They'll be contacting you soon Ash I know you'll be great." He added.
"Thanks I'm really happy I ran into you today Scott," said Ash.
"Pikachu!" said Pikachu.
"I'll be rooting for you and Pikachu too Ash," said Agatha.
"Thanks for your help Agatha," said Ash.
"I'll see you both again soon later!" said Scott as he drove off.
"Good bye!" said all three.
"The Battle Frontier yeah!" said Ash.
"Pika!" added Pikachu.
After saying goodbye to Agatha, Ash and Dante headed off for Pallet Town.
"Well Ash that was interesting," said Dante.
"I never thought we would battle one of the Elite Four" Said Ash.
"Yeah Agatha is one tough trainer," said Dante.
As they left Viridian City, they were in the wilderness and kept going until Dante noticed something Ash was seeming a little depressed.
"What's wrong Ash?" asked Dante.
"Nothing," he said.
"Ash you can tell me," said Dante.
"Well.." Ash said as he told Dante.
'WHAT YOUR BIRTHDAY IS IN A FEW DAYS?!" shouted Dante and Ash nodded.
"Okay then time to arrive home in style!" said Dante taking out a Pokéball. "Go Onix!" Dante threw the ball and out came Onix who roared.
Dante got on top of Onix.
"Climb on!" said Dante.
Ash and Pikachu got on Onix as well.
"Hold on tight now. Onix head for Pallet Town and step on it!" said Dante.
Onix let out a big roar as it dug underground with Dante, Ash and Pikachu on it.
'Well that was surprising. After winning the battle with Agatha with Dante's help, Ash has decided to take on the mysterious Battle Frontier, where the trainers there are even stronger than Gym Leaders. But while home beckons him, what will happen when he takes on the Battle Frontier? The answers are soon to come as the journey continues!'
