Pokemon: Friends to the End
Chapter 5: Gettin' Twiggy With It
The four trainers were heading to Jublife City for the first pokemon contest that Dawn and Denise would join, but on their way Team Rocket snatched Pikachu and were trying to get away on their air balloon.
"Team Rocket! Come back!"Ash demanded.
"That's not your Pikachu!"Dawn shouted.
"Would you creeps quit it already?!"Denise snapped.
"Never stopped us before."James said with a smirk."We're not changing our motives because of the twerps."
"Right, we laugh at the word enough, what's mine is mine and what's yours is too."Jessie remarked simply.
"Wobbuffet!"Wobbuffet agreed.
"Forget Pikachu and collect some stamps!"Meowth said with a smile.
"Eevee come on out!"Denise stated as she threw her Pokeball and Eevee appeared.
"Eevee!"Eevee said.
"Now Starly! I choose you!"Ash called out sending his Flying Type out. "Starly, cut the ropes that's holding Pikachu with Wing Attack!"
"Eevee assist Starly and use thunder on Team Rocket!"Denise ordered.
Eevee nodded as she went on Starly's back as the Flying Type charged straight at the rope.
"As if! Let's ask Carnivine for an alternate opinion!"James said with a frown calling to his Carnivine.
Unfortunately, as the Grass Type was sent out, James was bit again.
Jessie, Meowth, and Wobbuffet tried to pry Carnivine out of James head, only to shake the balloon.
Starly shrieked as he his beak popped the balloon.
Eevee lost her balance and held on to Pikachu's cage for dear life.
"Eev!"Eevee shrieked.
Team Rocket, Pikachu and Eevee screamee as they crash landed.
"Pikachu!"Ash shouted.
"Eevee no!"Denise panicked.

Then Paul and Ash glaring at each other, while Denise glared at Amy.
Their Pokemons did the same.

They took out their pokeballs showing Buneary, Piplup, Eevee and Ralts.

Pokémon!
Team Rocket's balloon crushed in a nearby lake.
Eevee regained her strength as she rushed to Pikachu's cage trying to open the cage to break him free.
Then a wild Turtwig walked over helping her release Pikachu from its cage.
Pikachu and Eevee thanked the Wild Turtwig for helping them.
"You're not relieved in duty, Pikachu!"Jessie stated.
The three pokemon turned around to see Team Rocket out of their fallen air balloon.
"Now Carnivine sink your teeth into someone else."James said.
"Carnivine!"Carnivine replied.
"Turt! Turtwig!" Turtwig growled and glared at Team Rocket.
"Your a Turtwig ain't ya?"Meowth asked.
"Turtwig! Turtwig! Twig!"Turtwig said angrily.
"Oh please! Just cause you say we're trespassing on your twerps doesn't mean we're looking at the same stupid map as you are!"Meowth muttered.
"Turtwig!"Turtwig said as he did a stamp on the ground.
"Yeah, so what if you blow your tongue that head of yours doesn't scare me a bit!"Meowth stated.
"Exactly! Carnivine bullet seed let's go!"James ordered.
Carnivine fired bullet seeds from its mouth making Turtwig, Pikachu and Eevee dodge the attack.
Turtwig began to charge at Team Rocket.
"Now we've got a problem!"Meowth said nervously. "Waking Turtwig up from its snoozing asks for trouble!"
Turtwig bashed Carnivine sending it to Team Rocket.
Eevee sneered as she took that as her signal and used Thunder at Team Rocket making them be bloated toward the air.
"Talk about an early exit."Jessie said.
"Hardly worth the bite marks of my brain!"James complained.
"WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" Team Rocket shouted as they vanished out of sight.
"Turtwig..."the Wild Turtwig growled.
"Pika Pika!"Pikachu cried happily.
"Eev! Eevee!"Eevee said in joy.
Then Ash, Brock, Dawn and Denise arrived in the area.
"Pikachu!"Ash called out.
"Eevee!"Denise said. "Are you two okay?"
Eevee smiled at her trainer and rushed to hug her.
The Wild Turtwig glared at them and stood in a battle stand.
"Wow, it's a Turtwig."Dawn said.
"It sure is."Ash agreed.
"That's pretty rare to see a wild Turtwig."Brock remarked.
"And it's adorable just like mine."Denise said with a smile.
"This is my chance! Piplup, use Peck!"Dawn ordered.
The Penguin Pokémon was sent out it charged at the Wild Turtwig.
Turtwig countered Peck with Razor Leaf.
"Quick! Dodge it!"Dawn said.
Piplup rolled around to dodge all the Razor Leafs.
Suddenly one of the leaves struck an Oddish and it swayed while using Sleep Powder.
"Pikachu!"Ash said as he rushed to his pokemon.
Ash and Pikachu got caught in the powder and they all dozed off and fell asleep.
"Hey, what happened to them?"Dawn asked with a hint of shock.
"They got caught in a sleep powder."Brock said.
"Geez Dawn, you really need to think before doing anything."Denise commented folding her arms.
Then the Wild Turtwig placed Pikachu on his shell and took off.
"Hey wait!"Brock said.
"Turtwig!"Dawn said.
"Wait a second!"Denise protested.
They both made a run for the two, but were stopped by an old lady.
"Mercy me! Children!"the lady called out.
Brock and the two sisters stopped as the Wild Turtwig ran away with the unconscious Pikachu.
Afterwards Brock, Dawn and Denise were at the woman's house whose name was Clara, who knew the Wild Turtwig.
She mixed up a medicine for Ash to wake up.
"Drink this, dear."Clara said as she poured the drink to Ash's mouth.
The medicine did its work as Ash woke up and looked around.
"Huh? Where am I? Pikachu? Where's Pikachu?"Ash asked looking for his Electric Type friend.
Clara introduced herself to Ash.
Brock and the two sisters explained to Ash that they were in Clara's house.
"You have nothing to fear."Clara assured. "Turtwig is a good Pokémon, I'm sure that your Pikachu is fine."
The three heroes were perplexed to hear the news.
"Oh Miss Clara do you know that Turtwig?"Denise asked before taking a sip of her tea.
"Heavens yes, Turtwig and I are old friends."Clara answered.
"Wow really?"Ash asked.
Meanwhile...
The Wild Turtwig took Pikachu and Eevee to a nearby orange tree.
It used Tackle on the tree to give Pikachu and Eevee each a orange.
Pikachu took a small bite before happily munching on the orange that was given to him.
Eevee sniffed at the orange before sweetly eating it.
The Wild Turtwig smiled at its new friends.
Back in Clara's House...
"Turtwig is quite a little helper you see."Clara said. "Turtwig is always coming to the aide of people and pokemon and has been for quite sometime."
"So, Clara, does that mean Turtwig is your Pokémon?"Dawn asked.
"No, dear."Clara replied. "Land's sakes, I'm very busy working on my herb garden without taking the time to either be a Trainer or a Coordinator, the truth is one day Turtwig showed up here out of nowhere, the poor dear looked exhausted, so I cooked up some dinner and made sure that Turtwig got plenty of sleep."
"Well, if I were Turtwig, I'd never want to leave after that."Brock replied.
"Yes Turtwig has been here ever since helping anyone that needs help including me all from a simple twist to fate."Clara said. "In no time at all the pokemon around here made Turtwig their leader."
Back Outside...
The Wild Turtwig, Pikachu and Eevee were enjoying eating their fruits.
They then spotted a Geodude and a Mankey fighting over a berry at the top of a tree.
"Pika pi!"Pikachu said.
"Eev! Eevee!"Eevee protested.
The Geodude and the Mankey continued fighting over the berry.
Turtwig charges at the tree, knocking the Geodude and Mankey off balance.
Once again, the two were fighting again.
Turtwig pushed the berry away making the two pokemons fight them.
Pikachu and Eevee tried to help their friend, but they got pushed out of the fight.
But then the Wild Turtwig knocked out Geodude and Mankey.
This made Pikachu and Eevee sweat drop of how strong Turtwig was.
Back in Clara's House...
"But at times Turtwig gets carried away, which is a lot of responsibility for the dear."Clara said.
"It sounds like the pressure is pretty high."Denise said with a hint of sadness. "But the Turtwig, I have is so calm and relaxed."
"Pokemon are like people with more kinds of different personalities that you can believe."Brock commented.
"Brock's right, but I can't still figure out why that Turtwig was trying to attack us."Ash said.
"Well, I know I wasn't there, but if I were to guess Turtwig was trying to protect Pikachu."Clara suggested.
"Of course, Turtwig must've thought that we were trying to do Pikachu harm."Brock said.
"For real?"Dawn asked.
Ash stood up with determination. "I'll be right back, I'm going out and get Pikachu, we'll talk it out once I tell Turtwig the truth it will be fine."
He went out the door with the two sisters and Brock following him.
Outside...
The Wild Turtwig gave Geodude and Mankey some fruits.
The two pokemons thanked Turtwig and went away as Pikachu and Eevee bid farewell at them.
The three pokemons turned around to see Ash, Dawn, Denise and Brock approaching.
"Piachu, Eevee are you guys okay?"Ash asked.
"I thought we would find you three here."Denise said kindly.
Turtwig glared at them and charged at Ash with Tackle making him drop on the floor and his hat out of his head.
"Ash!"Brock said.
"That was some smack."Ash muttered.
"Are you okay?"Dawn asked.
The Wild Turtwig was ready to fight, but Pikachu and Eevee blocked him.
"Pikachu!"Pikachu replied angrily.
"Eevee!"Eevee growled.
"Turtwig isn't listening to Pikachu and Eevee at all."Brock said.
"I know some people like that."Dawn replied sadly.
Denise nodded in agreement.
"Pika!"Pikachu growled.
"Eev!"Eevee said.
That made the wild Pokémon confused as they looked back at Ash, then to Pikachu and Eevee.
"Pikachu's my best friend, we were only trying to help."Ash explained.
"The same goes with me and Eevee."Denise said.
The wild Pokémon grew confused until Pikachu and Eevee answered that it was actually the truth.
The Wild Turtwig gasped in shock as they quickly backed away feeling ashamed of himself and a few tears started to come out of his eyes.
"Guess Turtwig is pretty sorry."Brock said.
"A little too sorry, don't you think?"Dawn asked.
Ash put his cap back on and walked over to the Wild Turtwig. "Don't worry about it Turtwig, I'm very grateful of you for rescuing Pikachu."
Then there was a rustle on the bushes and it was a wild Normal Type Pokémon named Linoone.
"A Linoone, but, what's wrong?"Ash asked.
"He looks badly injured."Denise said worriedly.
"A Linoone? Let's see..." Dawn replied and checking on her Pokédex.
"Linoone, the Rushing Pokémon."Dawn's Pokedex said."When it spots it's prey, it run towards it in a straight line, in 60 miles per a hour."
"Brock! We've got to help it!"Ash stated.
Brock ran over to check the Normal Type. "This Linoone must've smashed something really hard."
"Let's go back to Clara's house."Denise suggested.
Later, the four trainers and the five Pokémon took the injured Linoone to Clara's home, where Brock out some medicine to make it feel better.
"Real soon it will be all right."Dawn said. "You sure know your stuff."
"You sure do, you're quite a Pokémon healer."Clara replied.
"Don't thank me."Brock admitted. "Those herbs are the ones that helped it out."
"I'm glad that we found Linoone so quick."Ash said feeling relieved.
"Totally."Denise said.
"Eev."Eevee said sweetly as Denise stocked her fur.
Then the four trainers, Clara and their Pokémon were having Brock's homemade stew for lunch.
Denise took out her Turtwig and Shinx for them to enjoy the meal with the other Pokemon.
"Anytime you cook something that's needs to be eaten, it's already done."Denise said.
"Please Brock my boy is there something that you can't do?"Clara asked.
"Well, I'm just glad that you're enjoying it."Brock explained. "There's more, so just dig in!"
"Hey, Linoone, good food, huh?"Ash asked with a smile.
"Lino!"Linoone said as it licked its lips.
Turtwig then moved his bowl, giving his food to the Rushing Pokémon.
Linoone thanked Turtwig while eating more food.
"You know what?"Ash said. "You're a nice guy after all."
Turtwig looked up to see Ash smiling at him.
"That's true, you helped Eevee save Pikachu from danger."Denise said kindly.
Denise's Turtwig and Shinx thanked the Wild Turtwig for helping their friends.
The Wild Turtwig leapt up into the air and bit onto Ash's cap.
The two sisters and Brock gasped in shock. "Oh no!"
"Turtwig, cut it out! Let go of my head!"Ash demanded trying to take the Wild Pokemon out from his head.
Denise giggled at the sight.
"Turtwig is such a scamp."Clara said.
Everyone looked at her in confusion.
"Scamp?"They asked.
"When Turtwig bites you it's a sign that Turtwig really likes you."Clara mentioned.
"Does Turtwig do that to you too?"Dawn asked.
"Of course, come here Turtwig."Clara said.
She motioned Turtwig to come and it made a jump for Clara.
"Look out!"Ash warned.
Just as Clara looked messed up, she showed a twig with Turtwig biting it.
"I'm sure with a little practice, you could do it, too."Clara said.
Suddenly, two machine arms grabbed the Wild Turtwig, Pikachu and Eevee!
They were all dragged into a glass container.
"Pikachu! Turtwig!"Ash called out.
"Eevee, no!"Denise shouted.
Denise's Turtwig and Shinx gasped in shock.
Just then, something came from the surface of the water and it was a machine that looked like a Magikarp.
The hatch opened, revealing three familiar faces.
"Listen, is that a voice that I hear? James, your turn."
"It's speaking to me loud and clear!"
"On the wind!"
"Past the stars!"
"In your ear!"
"Bringing chaos at a breakneck place!"
"Dashing hope, putting fear in its place!"
"A rose by any other name is just as sweet!"
"When everything's worse, our work is complete!"
"Jessie!"
"And James!"
"Meowth, that's a name!"
"Putting the good-doers in their places!"
"Team Rocket..."
"In your face!"
"Wobbuffet!"
"Mime mime...Mime mime!"
"Team Rocket!?"Ash, Dawn and Denise said in unison.
"Say, that's some catch fresh as it is!"James joked.
"Come on! Why don't you give it up!?"Dawn demanded.
"That hat of yours is too tight."Jessie said with a sigh. "Otherwise, you'd remember what I'd have said what's mine is mine, what's yours is too?"
"We got three power boost package for the group!"Meowth said with a smile.
The evil trio went back in the submarine and dragged the glass container along with them.
Pikachu, Eevee and Turtwig yelped in surprise as they were dragged away.
"Pikachu! Turtwig! Eevee!"Ash growled as he dove into the water.
"Hold on we're coming!"Denise stated as she followed Ash into the water.
"What are you two doing!?"Dawn asked.
Ash and Denise both ignored her as they swam to catch up to the Submarine.
Dawn sent out Piplup out to help Ash and her sister with the situation.
Shinx also followed swimming with Piplup and getting to the two trainers leaving Denise's Turtwig behind.
Ash and Denise both swam fast and managed to catch up to the Submarine.
"We've gotcha!"Ash sputtered.
He helped Denise grab onto the glass with Shinx and Piplup only to see that they were being dragged down.
Turtwig used Tackle to try and break the glass.
Eevee used Shadow Ball to help out.
Pikachu aided the two with an Iron Tail.
"That's it! Now, use Thunderbolt!"Ash yelled underwater. "Shinx use Spark!"
"Wait, don't!"Denise warned.
Pikachu and Shinx shocked everyone in the water with Thunderbolt and Spark.
They were blasted towards the air and all landed on the grassy ground.
Pikachu, Piplup and Turtwig all fell on Ash, while Eevee and Shinx fell on Denise.
Dawn, Brock, Clara and Denise's Turtwig came over relieved to see his trainer.
"It's good to see that all of you are alright."Clara said.
"You were great Piplup."Dawn said with a smile.
"Piplup!"Piplup said sweetly.
"So, how are the rest of you are feeling?"Ash asked.
"I'm absolutely fine."Denise commented with a relieved smile as her Turtwig rushed to her side.
The Wild Turtwig began to glow by the sunlight.
"What's Turtwig doing?"Dawn asked.
"This is Synthesis."Clara answered.
"I've never heard of it before."Dawn said.
"Synthesis is a move that heals you faster."Brock explained.
"That's so cool."Denise said with a smile.
"Pardon me for not caring less!"Jessie stated.
Everyone turned to see Team Rocket hanging over by the Magikarp submarine.
"You make me sick! Listen to that twerpish triumph!"Jessie growled.
"If you thinks we're gonna let you dweebs off easily, then think again!"Meowth said angrily.
"Right! We'll lose when I say so!"James snapped.
"Wobbuffet!" Wobbuffet agreed.
They leapt toward the air and landed on the ground preparing for battle.
"Alright, enough is enough!"Ash shouted.
"Pika!" Pikachu growled.
"I couldn't agree more."Denise said firmly.
"Turtwig!"Turtwig said angrily.
"Argh! More twerp tolerance! Let's go, Seviper!"Jessie growled.
"You too, Carnivine!"James called out throwing his Pokeball.
Seviiper appeared fine, but Carnivine bit James head again.
"Seviper, use Poison Tail!"Jessie ordered.
"Now, you use Bite!" James ordered.
Both Pokémon make their move to attack.
Shinx used Tackle on Carnivine, while Eevee used Water Gun to throw him away, while Denise's Turtwig bashed Seviper with Quick Attack.
"No way!"Jessie and James said in shock.
"Yes way!"Denise said with a smile.
The enemy Pokémon got up as they were ordered to use the same move again.
"Okay, here they come! Pikachu, use Volt Tackle!"Ash ordered.
Pikachu nodded as he sped towards Team Rocket.
"Eevee, you use Thunder! Shinx use Spark!"Denise ordered.
The two Pokemon nodded as they aided Pikachu with Spark and Thunder.
It exploded on Team Rocket, causing them to fly towards the air.
"I thought you said we weren't going to lose unless you said so!"Jessie said angrily.
"Were you talking behind our back?"Meowth asked.
"Of course not! Those twerps have misunderstood!"James stated.
"WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!"Team Rocket shouted as they disappeared out of sight.
"Alright! We did it!"Ash cried out with triumphant.
Denise hugged her three pokemons. "Well done to all of you."
The Wild Turtwig turned around and bit into Ash's cap again.
"Hey, haven't we had enough biting for one day? I like it to, but this is nuts!" Ash asked.
Later, it was time to head back to the main route again and Denise returned her pokemons back to their pokeballs.
"Thanks for everything, Clara!"Dawn said.
"You all take care!"Clara called out.
"Don't worry we will."Denise responded.
"Take it easy in yourself, Turtwig."Ash stated.
As they were leaving, the Wild Turtwig seemed disheartened by the farewell already.
"I understand, you want to go with Ash, don't you?"Clara asked.
The Wild Turtwig looked back in surprise and seeing that Clara was giving him permission to go.
The Pokemon nodded as it managed to stop the four trainers for a moment.
"Turtwig?"Ash asked.
"What's wrong?"Dawn asked.
"Turtwig wants to come along with you."Clara admitted. "You shouldn't be surprised Turtwig likes you."
Ash looked at Turtwig and smiled.
"Of course you can come along."He said.
Turtwig nodded in happiness.
Then Ash decided to battle Turtwig with Pikachu.
The battle started with Turtwig using Tackle.
Pikachu easily intercepted the attack with Quick Attack.
Then Turtwig unleashed some Razor Leafs.
"Quick, dodge it!"Ash stated.
Pikachu nodded and escaped the Grass Type move, only to be hit by another Tackle.
"Wow, what was that combo!?"Denise asked in surprise.
"First, Turtwig ambushes Pikachu with Razor Leaf, then slams him with Tackle."Brock explained. "That's some strategy."
Just as Pikachu began to get up, Turtwig was making another attack.
Ash told Pikachu to dodge, which led Turtwig to follow and Bite on Pikachu's tail.
The Electric Type Pokémon tried to shake it off, but Turtwig refused to let go.
"Pikachu slam Turtwig into a tree!"Ash ordered.
Pikachu rushed and slammed Turtwig into a tree.
Turtwig was in pain, recoiled from the damage it had from its shell!
"Let's wrap this up! Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!"Ash ordered.
The move shocked Turtwig, giving Ash the chance to throw his Pokéball.
It absorbed Turtwig inside and it rattled for a moment, then stopped.
"Hey, I just got a Turtwig!"Ash said happily holding out his Pokeball as Pikachu cheered.
"Ash you did it!"Brock said.
"Well done indeed."Denise said with a smile.
"Wow, so that is like to catch a Pokemon."Dawn said. "How cool was that."
"Make you take good care of Turtwig, it means a lot to me."Clara said.
"Don't worry, I will."Ash said.
"Pikachu!"Pikachu said in agreement.
Then the four trainers continued their journey as the sun set down for another day.
