Loud house reaction to Pokémon legend.

Greetings everyone, I had this thought on how the characters from the loud house and casagrandes would react to what it would be like if Pokémon was in their lives. And yes, the louds will get scolded for a while for their actions especially Lori, Lynn, and Lola.

Episode 15

Lynn's last Game!

Lynn feels nervous.

"Uh, what does it mean my last game?" Lynn asked."

"Hard to say, but I think it's true karma," Margo replied."

later that morning,

Lana comes out of her room with red tired eyes, after getting dressed and brushed her teeth she noticed the family pets the dog Charles, the cat cliff, the bird walt, and the hamster geo along with her pets hops the frog, Izzy the lizard, El diablo the snake, and bity the mouse on Lincoln's bed in his bedroom feeling down and missing Lincoln. so decided to Lana walked towards Charles and petted him on his head.

"Just like dad, you've cried all night," Lucy said."

"Yeah, and the pets miss him too," Lana said." especially Charles seeing that he failed the title of man's best friend."

"Hey fellas, I can tell you miss Lincoln too, and Charles you feel like you lost the right to call yourself man's best friend," Lana commented."

the pets look at Lana with sadness in their eyes knowing she was right about what she said, mostly Charles remembering how Lincoln found him as a puppy when he was 5 years old.

Flashback to 5-year-old Lincoln and Charles as a puppy getting ready for bed.

"Charles you're the best dog and best friend ever," I love you buddy," 5-year-old Lincoln said as he drifted off to sleep."

puppy Charles climbed on to Lincoln's bed gave him cute thank you lick on his cheek then went into Lincoln's covers to sleep next to him, as Lincoln put his arm around him, they both slept happily.

Everyone smiles at that scene and Frida cries.

"Such a beautiful memory," she cried."

"I remember walking in and seeing that, it was so cute," Rita said."

"And he sleeps in his room when it's raining or snowing.

"I remember on Lincoln's 7th birthday he chased the rabbit that scared him until he made the cake fly and hit Lincoln's face," Luan said."

Everyone chuckled as Lincoln blushed."

flashback ends, and when back to the present Charles with his eyes closed with tears falling down his face.

Lana couldn't help but feel sad seeing the pets depressed until she thought of something.

"I know we should be mad at the pets along with the louds but I can't help but feel bad for him," Sid said."

"Me too," Adelaide said."

"Hey guys if you want when Lincoln calls, I'll let you know and you guys can join in on the video chat and I'll apologize on your behalf's," Lana said cheering up the pets as they hug Lana as she giggled." welp I better go get breakfast, but to be honest I don't want to go to Lynn's game or be around her."

"That's a good idea Lana and very nice of you," Kayla said."

Lana smiles.

she heads downstairs and head to the dining room breakfast table with the rest of her sisters. the louds were all seated at the breakfast table, enjoying a nice breakfast before they head the softball park for Lynn's game. speaking of Lynn, her similarly named father gave her a stern look.

"So junior, you're ready for the game today?" he asked sarcastically."

"You don't sound excited," Kotaro said."

"You bet dad! I did some heavy duty praying to the softball gods last night and this morning. but I can tell this game is going to be a breeze," Lynn boasted."

"Again with the softball gods," Margo groaned."

"Well good for you. and what about the rest of you? are you all looking forward to it as well?" Lynn sr. asked."

however, he didn't get a response from any of them, as they were to focus on eating their food, or just poking at their food. it was this kind of behavior that confirmed one thing: they all had something on their minds. he turned back to his sporty daughter.

"Speaking of breezes junior, I heard that it'll be rather breezy today," Lynn sr. said."

"it's the winds of change dad! now that rotten jinx is on the other side of the world, I have nothing to fear from his bad luck!" Lynn replied confidently."

Everyone glares at her.

at this comment, someone else broke the silence in response to Lynn's boasting.

"You must really be fixated on these baseless accusations you're making towards our brother, Lynn. let's just hope you can actually back up your words, otherwise you'll be eating a nice helping of humble pie," Lisa stated bluntly."

"Shut up, you little traitor! no one asked for YOUR input!" Lynn snapped."

"Girls, that's enough!" Lynn sr. warned only to go ignored as Lisa delivered her retort."

"You know, Lynn? it's that kind of bad attitude that's probably what caused your original loss in the first place!" Lisa spat."

"I agree," Paula said."

"Are you saying it's MY fault that my team lost that game?!" Lynn screamed holding her fist up to the little genius, who refused to be intimidated by the jock sister."

"As a matter of fact, I am! and I'm hoping that you do lose your game today, so that you can hopefully find something or someone else to blame other than our brother!" Lisa countered."

"I would say the softball gods were punishing you for threatening him with your bat," Margo said."

Lynn couldn't say anything.

"Well, just wait till we get home, and I can tell you and that other traitor, Lucy, all about how I won my game! speaking of which, here are my chores for the day. I expect them done by the time we get home," Lynn said handing Lisa a slip of paper with a list of chores on it."

"Fine with us! we look forward to hearing all about how you lose!" Lisa spat as she and Lucy both left the dining room and retreated back upstairs."

"Us too," Stella said."

"what's this all about?" Lynn sr. asked pretending to not look mad."

"Lucy and Lisa had the brilliant idea to go behind Lynn's back and apologize to Lincoln when he called last night. now, not only do they have to do all of Lynn's chores for an entire month as punishment, but they're also banned from her softball games for the rest of the season. and I say it's what they get for going against family," Lori replied."

"Going against family, don't make laugh," Lynn sr. snapped slamming his fist on the table shocking the sisters."

"Whoa, never saw you do that before," Lance said."

"Me either," Lynn sr. said."

"This family support each other? what a joke, your brother supports all of you. when have you supported him when he needed you huh?" Rita asked."

"That's a good question, when have you guys supported him?" Myrtle asked."

The sisters didn't have an answer until.

"Well, we did support him and Clyde in that comic book contest," Lola replied."

"Except, you only helped because you wanted to be famous since the full house gang was based on you," Clyde said."

Everyone glared at the sisters who winced.

"You only helped him to help yourselves?" Rita asked."

The sisters looked down guilty.

"Why should we support him he's bad luck mommy," Lola said."

"I don't care! we broke the law by locking him out of the house, Lola! and for what? a stupid superstition?!" Rita yelled as Lola slump down in her chair out of fear."

"But they're not stupid, mom! he really is..." Lynn said until she was cut herself off when her parents shot her a cold glare."

"We're both really disappointed in you junior none of this would've been happening if had just respected your brother's choice to not come to your game instead of threatening him with your bat and blaming him for your loss! that's NOT how true athletes act!" Lynn sr. said."

"That's right, real athletes shouldn't act like that," Lance said."

"And Lori, Lucy told us about your outdated sexist comment about Lincoln, I don't know who told you boys are always in the wrong and girls always in the right, but I'll find that person and beat her," Rita said."

"But he did cause my loss that day, I just know it! besides, it was Lincoln himself who spread the word about his bad luck in the first place!" Lynn countered, getting on her feet."

"And it's not outdated it's the truth about boys always being wrong, that's still going on even to this day, and you won't find scoots anyway people barley sees her around," Lori said standing on her feet too."

"How can you be sure he caused it," Francisco asked."

"And Lori it is outdated and knowing Scoots she made it up," Myrtle said."

Lori and Lynn feel bad.

"That's because you gave him the idea of spreading the word about bad luck, if there was a thing!" Rita snapped looking at her two daughters with disgust." and we all bought into this superstition for the sake of our own self-preservation!" (Tears starting to fill up) "so much for all talk about never abandoning any of our children! Well no longer! as of this moment onward, all notions of bad luck are hereby banned from this house! anyone who tries to test this ban will be slapped with a strike. get three strikes, and all of that daughter/sister's events will be canceled immediately! do we make ourselves clear?"

"And Lori, after that sexist comment you can make your own breakfast, lunch, and dinner, because being sexist is not ALLOWED in this house! Lynn sr. said with a stern look."

"That's right, it'll teach them a real lesson," Rosa said."

"But mom, that's so not fair! Lincoln is...!" Lynn said only to once again didn't get a chance to finish her complaint with the harsh glare shot at her by her parents."

"Yeah dad, this is literally not fair, I can't cook that's so...!" Lori couldn't finish her complaint with a harsh glare from her parents too."

"Is... that... clear?" the parents asked enunciating each word. it was clear that she wasn't going to budge from where they were standing."

"CRYSTAL," their daughters all said."

"You two really have the biggest pride, and karma is really coming for you," Carol said."

"Good. and junior, your father and I are the only ones who administer punishments. so, your little punishment you gave lucy and Lisa regarding your chores for the next month is null and void," Rita stated."

"Ok," Lynn replied not happy that the punishment she thought was perfectly just shot down."

"Alright then. I'm going to go pack lily's baby bag. I've lost my appetite," Rita said as she left the dining room along with Lynn sr. picking up ad carrying lily to her room."

"Oh boy, with how strained things are getting in the family, maybe sending Lincoln away wasn't such a good idea," Luan said."

"Well, he is the one that keeps the chaos under control," Clyde said."

Everyone nods in agreement.

the rest of breakfast was awkward to say the least.

'Oh man, it's bad enough when Lynn was on lucy and Lisa's case about apologizing to Lincoln, but now mom and pops are pretty cheesed off at us. why do I feel that things are about to get worse?' Luna thought to herself, unaware that the coming days, she'll be proven right.'

"Because you're finally realizing what's happening around you," Sam said."

meanwhile, in another part of town, namely the McBride residence,

Ronnie Anne was making her way up to the front door of Clyde's house. her thoughts were on the message she had received from Lisa last night, and what sort of answers she had to the questions regarding Lincoln's whereabouts. she wanted to go over as soon as she was able to, but she needed Clyde, who was just as curious about Lincoln's location as she was. she ringed the doorbell to her friend's house. a moment passed, before the door opened, revealing Clyde.

"Hey Ronnie Anne, what brings you over?" Clyde asked."

"A lead, McBride. last night, I got a message from Lisa telling me to come over while her family was at Lynn's dumb softball game," Ronnie Anne replied."

(surprised) "Really? Clyde asked."

"Yes. hopefully, this can provide answers to where lame-o is," Ronnie Anne replied."

"That'll put Clyde at ease since he was worried," Harold said."

"Well, I guess I've got some free time. and since we're being invited over, we're not actually breaking and entering, so it's all good," Clyde said."

"So, you're in?" Ronnie Anne asked."

"Of course. Lincoln and I are like brothers, and bros look out for one another. just let me check in with my dads and we can go," Clyde replied."

"That's why we're clincoln mccloud," Lincoln said as he and Clyde fist bump."

"Ok, just make it quick. I don't know when the game starts or how long it'll last, so the sooner we learn the better," Ronnie Anne said as she waited outside for him."

while she was waiting, she couldn't shake the feeling that she wasn't going to like the answers Lisa will give.

"Why shouldn't I be worried?" Ronnie Anne said."

meanwhile, at the royal woods softball field, in the squirrel's locker rooms,

Lynn and her friend Margo were getting ready for the game, changing into their uniforms. all the while, Lynn's demeanor was still a bit dour from what transpired at the breakfast table that morning.

"lynnsanity? you ready to tear it up out there?" Margo asked."

"Huh? oh, yeah," Lynn replied not sounding as chipper as her friend."

"Are you alright, you're usually more upbeat about game day than this. what's up?" Margo asked."

"Eh, I just had a spat with the rest of the family earlier this morning. nothing to major to worry about. so, who are we taking on again?" Lynn asked."

"Don't tell me you forgot already? we're taking on the softball team from Beaverton, you know, the worst team in the league?" Margo reminded her friend."

it was then that Lynn remembered.

"Oh yeah, the beavers! this game is going to be more of cakewalk than I realized, especially without that rotten brother of mine ruining things like he did when we were going up against the lions," Lynn exclaimed."

"Oh yeah, I heard about that team, they were bad but not too bad," Paula said." And Lynn you were hit in the head."

for the record, she was right about the Beaverton beavers. in their long history as a softball team, they were so terrible, that they had never once won a single game. Lynn even declared them to be the "jobbers of the softball world". it also didn't help that their team's name sounded incredibly stupid.

"Your brother? you mean that cute kid in the orange polo shirt and with the white hair? I thought you'd be happy for him to be here supporting you?" Margo asked."

"You think my brother's cute?" Lynn teased."

"Well yeah, but in a cute little brother way," Margo replied blushing."

"After how he jinxed our championship game out of spite, I don't want him or his stupid bad luck anywhere near the softball field, even after softball season. oh, and don't call him cute because he's not cute at all and its gross that you called him that," Lynn growled."

The family glared at her.

"Junior! how dare you say that about your brother!" Rita yelled."

Lynn felt bad.

"Wait, you actually think your brother is the cause of our loss that day?" Margo asked."

"He had to be! I can't think of any other reason we could've lost that day!" Lynn replied."

"Really, nothing?" Lincoln asked."

"Did you ever think that there was some other reason we lost that day, Lynn? one that doesn't involve luck of any kind?" Margo asked."

"Psh, yeah right, what other reason could there be" Lynn questioned."

"Is your brain broken?" Paula said."

Margo was going to tell her, when the coach came in.

"Alright girls, its game time!" the coach called out."

"Well, time to get us a quick and easy win!" Lynn proclaimed, as she made her way to the exit."

"It'll have to be really quick, Lynn. some of the others are having stomach pains as of late," one of her teammates said."

"Yeah, don't you think it's time we forget the whole 'no number 2 until we're number 1' rule, even if it's just this one time?" another teammate asked."

but Lynn remained stubborn.

"No way! we're not breaking our good luck rituals now! especially not if we're up against a jobber team like the beavers," Lynn declared, as she marched out to the field."

"LJ, are really making them do that?" Lynn sr. asked."

"I used too but after the luck incident I've stopped," Lynn replied."

"Ugh, how did someone like her get to be captain of even one of our school's teams?" the first teammate questioned, as they all followed after their captain."

"That's a good question," Polly said."

out on the field,

"Today seems like a good day for a game, eh pep?" one of the commentators asked looking over at his unenthusiastic partner."

"Sure, if you think the bevers loosing even qualifies as a game. (sigh) let's just get this over with," pep replied, using his arm to prop up his head."

"Seriously, why does he do this?" Lincoln asked."

"Your guess is as good as mine," Margo replied."

in the stands, the loud family were among the crowd, cheering for the home team, having just been joined by bobby.

"I'm so happy that you made it, boo-boo bear! it really means a lot to me and the rest of my family." Lori said sitting next to her boyfriend."

"Sure thing, babe, no problem," bobby replied sounding a bit distracted at the thought of what he had to do."

while he did trust Lori, he didn't want to disappoint Ronnie Anne. besides, he knew Lori wouldn't lie to him, right?

"Would she really lie?" Bobby asked."

"Of course I wouldn't," Lori replied."

(flashback) last night, back at the Santiago household, in Ronnie Anne's room.

bobby knocked on Ronnie Anne's door noticing that she was feeling down since Lincoln went somewhere a couple of weeks ago.

"Hey sis, is something wrong? you've been acting strange lately," Bobby asked."

Ronnie Anne sat up and looked at him.

"Yeah, I'm fine, it's just..." Ronnie Anne couldn't find the right words."

"it's ok, sis. you can tell me anything," Bobby said as he sat on her bed."

"What a good brother you are," Albert said."

"Earlier this week, Clyde and I went to the loud house to invite Lincoln to the arcade, and asked where he's been, since no one has seen him in a few weeks. Lori was acting strangely when we brought up Lincoln's whereabouts." Ronnie Anne replied."

"Lori behaving strangely, how so?" Bobby asked."

"Hard to explain. it was like she was trying to hide something," Ronnie Anne replied."

"From what we saw, it's obvious she was hiding something," Carlota said."

"Hmm, that doesn't sound much like Lori, which makes this unnerving news indeed, Bobby said."

"Well, one way or another, I'm going to find out, Ronnie Anne declared."

"Now hold on, sis. I don't want you doing anything dangerous or illegal," bobby said sternly."

"I'm not doing anything like that, bobby," Ronnie Anne said defensibly."

"You sure?" Carl asked."

Ronnie Anne punches Carl in the arm.

"Ow," he said."

"Tell you what, Lori invited me to Lynn's game tomorrow. I'll try talking to her about it then. will that work?" bobby asked."

"I suppose so, Ronnie Anne replied. she was still convinced that Lori will tell bobby the same story she told her and Clyde.

"We can trust Lori, nie-nie. she has absolutely no reason to lie to me about this kind of thing," bobby said, as he left his sister's room."

"I know you're dedicated Bobby, but if she was hiding something from you, you should be suspicious," Hector said."

"He's right," Arturo said."

Lori felt nervous.

(End of flashback) back to the stadium,

"Bobby? is everything ok?" Lori asked."

"Yeah, it's nothing too serious, but..." bobby replied."

"But?" Lori asked."

"But, last night, Ronnie Anne talked to me about a little mystery surrounding your brother," bobby finally spat out."

Lori was starting to get nervous, but she was able to keep her cool.

"She told me that when she and the clydester were at your house the other day, asking about where your brother is, and said that you had no idea where he is or when he'll be back. so please, for her sake, can you tell me the truth?" Bobby asked."

"Will she tell the truth?" Dana asked."

Lori was now full on internally panicking. she didn't want bobby to know the real reason about Lincoln's whereabouts, but she didn't want to lie either. then, she got an idea.

"Well, he's volunteered to help out a friend of our grandfather's over in Japan with some animal biology work," Lori ultimately replied." (thinking) 'it wasn't technically a lie, as it was technically true.'

"Well, she's right about him helping oak being true," Bobby said."

"True," Carol said."

"Out of the country? really?" bobby asked."

"It's all true," Lori replied hoping that he would that drop the issue."

fortunately for her, he chose to leave it at that.

"Well, if that's all there is to it, then I'll take your word for it. nie-nie will be so happy to hear this. while she won't admit it out loud, she's been worried about him since she notices he went missing," bobby replied."

"It's like I always said, those two are literally meant for each other," Lori said." (mumbling) "unlike that misty troll he's hanging out with."

"Really Lori, and I doubt Misty's interested in Lincoln," Becky said."

"What was that, Lori?" Bobby asked unable to hear Lori."

"Oh, uh, nothing important, boo-boo bear," Lori quickly replied as the game was getting ready to start."

"Alright, first up to bat is the squirrel's ace player, Lynn loud jr!" the announcer said."

"And...it looks like she's once again doing her clownish good luck rituals," pep replied with a bored yawn, as Lynn was in fact doing her lucky rituals."

Margo and Paula groaned.

lifting her leg, turning her helmet a full 360 degrees, tossing a few clods of dirt over her shoulder, slapping her right cheek, and doing the Cossack dance.

"The very thing that started the luck fiasco," Lincoln said."

The louds mostly Lynn winced.

"Seems to me that Lynn loud jr. puts more faith into her good luck rituals than she does her own natural talents. how do you think that would affect her ability to play, pep?" the announcer asked."

"Seeing as how many games she's 'won' during her career as an athlete, I would say that all her lucky rituals are good for helping her focus. being able to deliver on actual physical prowess is another story, especially if she hasn't practiced the game itself, or just trying different strategies. either way, it's just going to be a snooze fest for me," pep replied, as one of the opposing team's pitchers was on the mound, ready to throw the first pitch."

"Dang, they really roasted you good," Carl said."

"And it's like I told you Lynn, you don't need luck as long as you have your natural talents," Myrtle said."

Lynn felt guilty.

Lynn readied herself as well, as the first pitch was thrown. however, a fairly strong gust of wind knocked the ball off course, and out of the way of Lynn's bat as she swung.

"STRIKE ONE!" the umpire called."

"Oh! I don't seem to remember the beavers ever being able to get a strike on anyone," the announcer commented."

Everyone else was surprised.

"I don't think any of us did," Luan said."

"There was the game where the beavers took on the lions back in '82. they still lost though," pep yawned."

(flabbergasted) 'how did...never mind. it was just a fluke pitch. no way it could happen again,' Lynn said to herself, as the second pitch was thrown, only to once again be blown off course by a gust of wind, causing Lynn's bat to miss.'

"STRIKE TWO!" the umpire called."

"That was the wind!" Lynn said."

"Oh, you've got to be kidding me!" Lynn complained as she readied herself for her third and final chance to hit the ball."

as it was thrown. like before, the ball was blown off course, this time by a particularly powerful gust of wind, changing the ball's trajectory...SMACK!

Everyone was surprised from what they saw.

the sound of the ball hitting Lynn right in the face thundered through the softball field, as she was knocked down. she muttered something while the ball was in her face. the umpire went to see if she was alright and gave her a pity look when he saw the black eye the impact had left her with.

"Ooh, that had to hurt! talk about a rough start to the day for Lynn loud jr. ladies and gentlemen," the announcer commented as the umpire helped Lynn back onto her feet."

"That really hurt," Paula said."

"I'll say," Maria said."

it was only then that the pain from the impact finally exploded, causing her to hold her face, hissing in pain.

"Ow, that really stings!" Lynn said."

"You know the rules, loud. get walking," the umpire said only to get ignored as Lynn stormed her way up onto the pitcher's mound."

"You hit me in the face on purpose!" Lynn accused."

"Hey back off, loud! I was aiming for the catcher's mitten!" the beaver's pitcher said defensively."

"Bull-crap! I know you did it on purpose!" Lynn retorted."

"You'd better back off, loud! I swear I wasn't even trying to aim for your face!" the beaver's pitcher said."

"LIAR!" Lynn yelled jabbing the opposing pitcher by the collar and raised her fist."

Jeez Lynn, that pitcher didn't do it on purpose," Lincoln said."

"It's like you said, it was the wind," Lisa said."

Lynn looked away.

before things escalated, the umpire pulled her back, and pointed to the first base, a commanding look on his face. Lynn stuck her tongue out at the pitcher, before making her way over to first base. as she did, Margo was next up to bat. the pitcher threw the ball, and Margo swung. however, the bat slipped out of her hand, and flew directly at Lynn's face, knocking her to the ground again.

Everyone was shocked mostly Margo.

"What the heck Margo!" Lynn said."

"It was an accident!" Margo said."

"Oh my gosh! are you alright, lynnsanity?!" Margo panicked rushing over to her friend's side, ignoring the umpire's orders to return to home plate."

"Sports day is a very dangerous day," Lynn replied still in a daze."

"Nice reference to Rocko's modern life," CJ said."

"Again, right in the kisser! that had to hurt, wouldn't you say, pep?" the announcer asked."

"Not too sure, but I think she may have lost a few teeth," pep replied."

"I did?!" Lynn asked."

"Ok, that's not quite what I had in mind." the announcer said."

Lynn started to come around.

"Oh man, that really hurt! what the heck, Margo?!" Lynn asked."

"Sorry, it was an accident, I swear!" Margo apologized as Lynn got back onto her feet."

Margo then winced upon seeing Lynn's face, which didn't go unnoticed by the team's captain.

Everyone was shocked, Frida and Howard fainted seeing Lynn's face.

"Oh my gosh!" Rita said."

"Give it to me straight Margo, how bad is it? come on, I can take it," Lynn pleaded."

"Well, it looks like your lip is bruised, and maybe your nose looks a little cut," Margo replied."

"WHAT?!" Lynn screamed placing her hand over her mouth, and pulling it away, seeing a small bit of blood now decorating her hand."

"Yeah, that's really bad," Sid said."

Lynn's already bad temper was beginning to worsen, as her family looked on, trying to figure out what was happening.

"Is she going to be alright, Lori?" Bobby asked."

"I'm sure she'll be fine, but her games don't normally start off this badly. but I'm sure her and her team will turn things around," Lori replied."

"If you say so," Bobby replied still unsure about what he was seeing."

"Yeah, I'm not sure about that," Bobby said."

Lola made sure her mother was preoccupied with lily, as she turned to her father.

"Daddy, what's going on with Lynn? I thought taking care of you-know-who' and his you-know-what' would help her out? to me, it looks like it's gotten even worse," Lola whispered."

"Simple sweety, its karma, maybe the softball gods are punishing your sister for being a bad sport behavior, and who knows who else is next," Lynn sr. replied."

"I can see that," Paula said."

"Yeah, she's getting true karma," Margo said."

Lynn winced.

'Maybe his room being unsealed is probably the cause not karma,' Lola thought while feeling nervous about what her dad said.'

"Of course its karma Lola," Cricket said."

meanwhile, near the loud house,

Ronnie Anne and Clyde were on their way to the loud house, intent on getting the answers they were looking for from Lisa.

"So, it's just Lisa who's home right now?" Clyde asked."

"All I got from that message last night was that she had the answers we wanted, and to come over while the rest of her family was at Lynn's game," Ronnie Anne replied as the loud house came into view."

as they both approached the loud house front door, Ronnie Anne rang the doorbell. moments later, the door opened, revealing, to both the older kids surprise, Lucy.

"What brings you all here today?" Lucy asked in her usual monotone voice."

"I got a message from Lisa, saying she has info about Lincoln's whereabouts, and we want those answers," Ronnie Anne replied."

"I see," Lucy said as she stepped to the side," her room is upstairs, first door on the right."

"Wait, that's it? you're just letting us go in without so much as trying to stop us?" Clyde questioned."

"You're that surprised?" Rocky asked."

"We figured she would try to stop us," Clyde replied."

"You guys deserve to know the truth. but be warned, what you'll learn must never be told to anyone else," Lucy replied."

"Knowing them, they're worried about the cops," Carl said."

now, they both looked worried, as they went upstairs, and made it to Lisa's door.

"Lisa? its Ronnie Anne! we've come to hear what you have to say," Ronnie Anne said knocking on the door."

"Enter!" Lisa called out."

Ronnie Anne opened the door, allowing her and Clyde to enter the little genius' bedroom, where they saw the little genius sitting at her desk.

"I see that you've brought Clyde along as well." Lisa said."

"He wanted to know about where Lincoln is too. now spill it. where is he?" Ronnie Anne asked crossing her arms."

"Straight to the point. quite the characteristic of you. alright, have a seat, for what I'm about to tell you, no one but the very people you can trust to keep it a secret can know about," Lisa said."

they both sat on the Lisa's bed, as Lisa began her explanation.

"Let's hope they can handle it," Carlota said."

meanwhile, back at the softball field.

"My word, I don't think the beavers have ever had this big of a lead over anyone in their long history. what say you pep?" the announcer asked."

"It certainly is a first, but I honestly couldn't care less," pep replied."

"Where's his heart or emotion?" Frida asked."

"Probably in a jar," Rosa replied."

"Well, in any case, next up to bat is Lynn loud jr. for the second time today. hopefully things don't go too badly as they did her first time around," the announcer said."

"He just jinxed it," Rusty said."

Lynn was now up to bat again, as she readied herself.

'Ok Lynn, you had a pretty rough start earlier, but that's ok. there's still plenty of time to make a comeback,' she thought to herself not knowing how wrong she was, as the opposing team's pitcher threw the next pitch."

Lynn kept her eyes on the ball, and with one mighty swing...CRACK!

she finally made contact with the ball, and was watching it fly away from home plate. she was ready to drop her bat and run for first base, when she couldn't help but feel her bat felt...lighter somehow. perplexed, she looked and saw in pure disbelief that her bat had broken in two, leaving her holding the handle while the other half was laying in the dirt close by. while she stared at her broken bat in disbelief, the ball continued to fly in the air for a few more seconds, before plummeting back down to the pitcher's mound. the pitcher noticed the ball and reached out to catch it.

"My bat!" Lynn said."

"You're out!" the umpire declared."

"Ooh, an infield ball leading to an out-tough luck. speaking of which, hasn't Lynn Loud's luck gone particularly sour today? I can't remember one of her games being this bad," the announcer said to his partner."

"Don't know, don't care." pep yawned."

"I'm seriously going to hurt that guy," Lynn said.

"Easy LJ," Lynn sr. said."

meanwhile, down on the field, Lynn began raging and ranting at how things were going so badly for her, as she stormed her way onto the pitcher's mound.

"You broke my lucky bat! what the hell?! Lynn accused."

the beavers' pitcher was getting really irritated with the accusations being hurled her way.

"Get out of my face, loud! I didn't break your stupid bat! you probably didn't take good enough care of it!" the beavers' pitcher said."

"Bull crap! I take great care of my equipment! you're the one at fault here, not me!" Lynn said shoving the pitcher to the ground."

"Seriously, you're accusing someone for your bat breaking in half?" Rita asked."

"How immature of you Lynn," Kara said."

the pitcher retaliated, shoving Lynn onto the ground herself. when the sporty loud sister got back up, she started throwing punches, which the beavers' pitcher returned, prompting the umpire, both team's coaches, and the other team members to rush over and break up the fight. watching on from the squirrel's dugout, Margo only sighed in disappointment.

"Ok, you really have a problem," Bobby said."

"I agree," Francisco said."

"Man, this game has been a complete disaster! we're behind six points, and our captain is acting out because things aren't going her way," Margo sighed."

"Can't we just throw the rest of the game? I don't think I can handle going up to bat," one of the other squirrel's teammates asked holding her stomach in pain."

"It might be a good idea to just use the bathroom. it's clear we're not going to make a comeback unless we do. besides, Lynn's acting like too big of a jerk for us to even obey," another teammate agreed holding her stomach in pain as well as the coach brought Lynn back to the dugout."

"They can't hold it forever," Maria said."

"Consider this your last warning, loud! act out like that again, and you're going to be a benchwarmer for the rest of the season," the coach warned before turning to the rest of the team," (noticing some the team looking uncomfortable) what's wrong with all of you?"

"We need to use the bathroom coach, otherwise, not only we'll not only play properly, but we could run the risk of soling ourselves," the first teammate replied."

"Well, if you need to use the bathroom, then why don't you? it's there for that very purpose!" the coach urged only for Lynn to intervene."

"No, coach! it's bad luck to bomb the toilet until AFTER an important game! they're just going to suck it up, and hold it until we win this! I'm not going to lose another game!" Lynn said."

the coach only looked at Lynn like she grew a third eye in the middle of her forehead.

"Loud, have you been actually forcing your teammates to practice something that dangerous?!" the coach asked."

"The only danger here is allowing bad luck to ruin another game for us! my good for nothing brother ruined our championship game against the lions with his bad luck, and I'm NOT going to let any more bad luck ruin things for us again!" Lynn retorted in a matter-of-fact tone."

"I'm calling for a timeout! all of you, go use the bathroom, by MY order!" the coach said glaring at Lynn."

"No, don't even..." Lynn didn't get a chance to finish her speech."

"Loud, from here on out, we're playing with strategy and practice, NOT luck! if I catch you or any of your teammates doing any of your lucky rituals again for the rest of the game, then not only am I calling a forfeit, but you'll be cut from the team indefinitely! that's my final say on the matter!" the coach stated her tone backing up her words."

"At least the coach is reasonable," Leonard said."

Everyone nodded as Lynn felt bad.

Lynn's temper once again flared up, but she didn't want to lose another game, so she begrudgingly did as she was told, as the rest of her team quickly made their way to the bathroom.

"TIME OUT!" the coach called out."

"And the squirrel's coach has called for a timeout! probably a good call after that little brawl," the announcer said."

"A real good call," Rita said."

"Which makes for a perfect time for everyone here to go to the bathroom," pep moaned as he left the announcer's box."

"Wonder what's going on? Luan wondered."

"Hopefully the coach is going to do something about junior's unacceptable behavior," Rita commented displeased with 5th daughter's behavior."

"I agree, she needs a reality wake up call," Lynn sr. said agreeing with his wife."

"I say all the sisters do," Hector said."

The sisters minus Lily winced.

"Well, I gotta go use the bathroom myself," Lana said as she got up."

"Good call. those of us who need to use the bathroom, come on," Lynn sr. said as the louds got up and made their way out of the stands and to the bathrooms."

unbeknownst to anyone there, someone was listening in on the conversation Lynn was having with her coach.

Lynn, Margo, Paula, Polly, and Francisco were shocked seeing the person.

'It can't be," Lynn thought.'

"Hmm, if what I heard is true, then I know what I have to do," the mysterious figure commented looking up at the announcer's box."

back at the loud house,

"So, let's see if I got this straight: Lynn lost a softball game, and blamed Lincoln for it, claiming him to be "bad luck". then he got the idea to lie about it to get out of all of you and your sister's activities, it worked too well, and you guys locked him out of the house and refused to let him back in, even though he came clean. do I have everything right so far?" Ronnie Anne asked getting angry."

"Correct," Lisa replied."

"She looks like she'll turn you and the sisters into human pretzels," Carl said."

"I definitely would," Ronnie Anne said."

The sisters felt scared.

"And a few days later, Lynn lost another game that Lincoln was nowhere to be found, and when you guys came back, she tried to take off his head for calling her a sore loser, and would've succeeded if not for your grandfather's intervention, and suggested that rather being sent to your aunt ruth's place that Lincoln be to an island region off the coast of Japan to help a professor out with some kind of zoology work?" Ronnie Anne asked."

"Pretty much," Lisa replied."

"And during the time you forced him to sleep outside, you guys sold his furniture and were about to do the same to the rest of his stuff until your grandfather not only ordered all his stuff back into his room, but for your parents to give Lincoln all of the money they got from selling his furniture, right?" Clyde piped up."

"Indeed," Lisa replied."

"And Lincoln just called from this kanto' place that he was sent to last night, and you and lucy already apologized and made amends with him?" Ronnie Anne asked."

"Indeed. though I've got a feeling that our mother and father units and Leni along with Lana are going to want to talk things out with him the next time he calls," Lisa replied."

"Well, the parts about those monster things you were talking about sound a bit farfetched, but as for the whole locking Lincoln out of the house thing, while I do feel the need to chastise you and your sister's spooky butt for having some role in this mess, I'll gladly respect Lincoln's decision to forgive you, and let you both off with a warning, this time," Ronnie Anne stated."

"Duly noted," Lisa replied nervously."

"Thanks for forgiving them, Ronnie Anne," Lincoln said."

"No problem," Ronnie Anne said."

"So, how have things been for Lincoln since he's been in kanto?" Ronnie Anne asked."

"Well, I'm glad you asked. I took the liberty of recording the call from last night so that if the rest of the family wants to try to mend the fences with him, they can get caught up on all the details surrounding his adventures down to the smallest detail, coming straight from him," Lisa replied as she pulled up last night's call."

"That's cool," Clyde said."

"By the way, what's that thing?" Clyde asked, pointing to the not yet finished transporter device."

"That's a transport device. it's not finished yet, but as soon as its properly tested, Lincoln will be able to send some of the Pokémon he catches in his travels over there so that not only may the family observe them but also prove Lynn and Lori's accusations of the validity of professor oak's progress report." Lisa explained as she pressed play on the video, allowing Clyde and Ronnie Anne to watch the conversation between their friend and his two sisters.

while they did that, Lisa grabbed some tools and got back to work on the transporter.

"I probably should've brought snacks to watch the recording," Ronnie Anne joked."

back at the softball field,

"Alright, bottom of the fifth inning, and bases are loaded with the score 13-0 in favor of the beavers, who are now up to bat. quite the shocking turn of events, eh, pep?" the announcer asked."

"As bored as I am with watching all the games this season, this is one that I may actually stay awake for. I'm curious to see how this one pans out. who knows? we may bear witness to the beavers' end of their losing streak career," pep replied seeming fully invested in watching the game now, as Lynn was on the pitcher's mound."

"Oh, so now he's interested," Margo said."

her mood was still incredibly sour since the coach had banned anymore of her lucky rituals for the remainder the game.

'That fool has no idea what she's brought upon us! but no matter. I can still pitch, even without my lucky rituals. I may have had a bad start with batting, but pitching is another story,' Lynn thought to herself, as she readied herself to her pitch.'

but her mood soured even more when she saw who was up to bat. it was the same girl who she accused of hitting her in the face with the ball, and, in her opinion, is the one who broke her lucky bat.

"You know, loud, I'm greatly disappointed!" the girl declared."

"what're you talking about?" Lynn questioned."

"I only joined the softball team in the hopes of seeing just what type of an athlete you are, based on all the rumors circulating about you through the league. I heard that you were one of the most formidable athletes this or any softball league had ever seen. now I see that you're just a spoiled brat who hides behind stupid superstitions and throws tantrums when things don't go your way. in the end, you're all luck and no skill!" the beavers girl said as she readied herself to swing."

Everyone was speechless after hearing that.

"Wow, what a roast," Polly said."

"And yet, she deserved it," Giggles said."

Lynn's temper was once again flaring up, which was causing her vision to blur. she rubbed her eyes, trying to get her vision straight, only to look back at home plate, seeing something that caused her rage to explode even further than it already did. there, in place of the opposing team's batter, was Lincoln, smiling cheekily, almost in a mocking manner. upon seeing the vision of her brother, Lynn let out a primal scream, before throwing the ball with all her might at "him", uncaring if it was him or not. upon seeing the ball coming at her with greater speed than anticipated, the beavers' girl swung her bat, and with a thunderous crack, she sent the ball flying. the booming sound was enough to snap Lynn out of her trance, as she looked around for the ball, only to blanche in horror as she saw the ball fly up and out of the park, leading to a home run, which was something the beavers had long since been subjugated to.

"Game, set, and match! the beavers win by mercy rule!" the umpire declared causing Lynn to blanche even further."

"You imagine me mocking you?" Lincoln said."

Lynn couldn't answer.

"And the mercy rule is the worst thing to get," Margo said."

"What's a mercy rule?" Darcy asked."

Paula points at the screen.

while the mercy rule was only put into play when one team scores more than 15 points within five innings, Lynn saw the mercy rule as the most humiliating way to lose any game. everyone else in the stadium and field were just shocked, even pep, who was normally unenthusiastic about these games.

"That's the mercy rule," Paula said."

"Oh," Darcy said."

"I-I don't believe it! the beavers have officially broken their losing streak career!" the announcer declared only for someone to walk out onto the field, someone both he, pep, the coaches, and each team member recognized."

"Why, that's the official chairman for the entire softball league for the state of Michigan! what brings him here today?" the announcer wondered as the administrator pulled out a microphone of his own."

"That's the chairman of the softball league?!" Lynn sr. asked."

"Yup," Francisco replied." But what's he up too?"

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's true that the beavers until this very day, have never once won a single game, so I'm here to congratulate them on their first ever victory. but my main reason for being here is a rumor I heard circulating about the squirrels, and coming here today has proven it to be true. the star captain of the squirrels, Lynn loud jr. has been purposely forcing her teammates to not use the restroom until after each game, claiming it to be bad luck'!" the chairman stated causing some shocked murmurs, and some 'boos' to come from the crowd."

"Oh, she's in trouble now," Joey said."

"But isn't something like that dangerous to one's health?" the announcer asked."

"Indeed, it is. I commend the squirrel's coach for standing up to Lynn, I must enforce the league's new zero-tolerance policy. the squirrels are hereby temporarily disqualified from the league and will return after 3 seasons! furthermore, not only are any and all notions of luck, good or bad, banned from the league, Lynn loud jr. is officially banned from playing in any softball games until she learns that it takes skills and not luck to win a game and to accept a loss as an experience to improve like a real sports player," the chairman declared."

"That's a good call," Lance said."

Lynn was horrified at what she just heard. the shock became too much for her, as she fainted on the spot, much to her family's horror. her team, apart from Margo however, had expressions of disgust, anger, and a general lack of sympathy on their faces, as they just left their former captain on the field. Margo was dragged back into the locker room.

"Dang, the entire team is mad," Paula said."

later, in the softball field parking lot.

Lynn was finally starting to come around, as she sat up.

"Ugh, my aching head!" Lynn exclaimed looking around, she saw she was in vanzilla." "Huh? how'd I get here?"

"How do you think? we brought you over," Luna replied as Lynn saw herself surrounded by her family."

"What happened in the game? did we win?" Lynn asked."

"No, junior, the beavers won 17-0 in the fifth inning," Rita replied unsympathetically with a look of bitter disappointment on her face."

"Wait, but that means... (Lynn put two and two together) we lost by the mercy rule!" Lynn said upset."

"That's enough, Lynn!" Luna said forcefully."

"You ought to feel lucky that none of your teammate's families are pressing charges against us for the way you've been forcing them to wait until after the game to use the bathroom!" Rita said."

"Yeah, we should be lucky," Rita said."

"Indeed," Arturo said."

Lynn then remembered more events that occurred out on the field.

"Oh man, not only did we lose in the most humiliating way possible, and to the beavers no less, I've been banned from softball entirely!" Lynn exclaimed."

"Perhaps some time away from sports will do you some good," Lynn sr. said harshly." and its only until you learn to be a true athlete. and there's no shame in losing once in a while"

"Exactly," Albert said."

"No shame?" "No shame?!" "Dad, we lost to the beavers! the literal jobbers of softball! it should've been an easy win for us!" Lynn exclaimed only to be shut up by the fiercest glare both her parents had ever produced."

"Not another word about this. understand?" Rita asked enunciating each word."

Lynn didn't say anything and sulked bitterly in her seat.

"Everyone, inside now!" Lynn sr. and Rita ordered."

their daughters wasted no time in getting into vanzilla, not wanting to incur the parents' wrath any further.

"One question? where's my duffle bag?" Lynn asked."

"In the trunk. your team dropped it off as they were leaving. they said that they were going to quit all other sports teams if you're on them, unless you give up on luck forever," Lori replied."

"That sounds reasonable," Lincoln said."

Lynn couldn't believe what she was hearing. even her own team has turned against her. this only served to enrage Lynn even further.

back at the loud house,

Lincoln's two friends had just finished watching the call Lincoln made to his sisters. Clyde looked surprised.

"Man, first Lincoln was thought to be bad luck, now that he's in kanto, he's even luckier than ever." Clyde said."

"I know what you mean. that gold nugget was huge!" Ronnie Anne said."

"I wonder how much its worth," Ronnie Anne said."

"Not to mention getting two girls to like him," Clyde added until he saw Ronnie Anne scowl at him." "Uh, just saying, I doubt they really even like him that way because they're 15 and wanted to thank him for saving the center."

Clyde chuckled nervously fearing Ronnie Anne will pound him, knowing her and Lincoln's secret relationship.

"So, I knew about their secret relationship?" Clyde asked."

"Yup, and since you two are best friends, you know how to keep secrets," Kai replied."

"And another reason that we're best pals," Lincoln said."

The two-side hug.

"Uh by the way, is there anything on Pokémon he's caught so far?" Clyde asked Lisa trying to change the subject."

"Good save," Ronnie Anne said."

"Ah, yes! that's right! I never got a chance to go through and look at the data he sent over," Lisa exclaimed as she quickly logged onto her laptop, and pulled up the info Lincoln had sent them, showing all of the Pokémon Lincoln had seen and caught.

"Whoa." Ronnie Anne said."

"Yeah, whoa is right," Clyde commented as they both cycled through each page from Lincoln's pokedex."

"Ok, so the Pokémon with the icon that looks like a pokeball indicates the ones that Lincoln has previously caught," Lisa observed noticing a pokeball icon next to each Pokémon Lincoln had talked about."

"And these sparkle icons on these bug Pokémon? what about those?" Ronnie Anne asked."

"Lincoln did mention that he had captured an extremely rare shiny weedle, and had raised it up into a kakuna, then into the beedrill you see up there, "Lisa replied."

"That must be what the sparkles mean," Ronnie Anne deduced."

"Indeed. and I must say, most of these magnificent creatures look rather fearsome, "Lisa commented seeing Onix."

"I'll say," David said."

just then, they all heard vanzilla pull into the driveway.

"Sounds like they're back. apologies, but we're going to cut this short," Lisa said."

"No worries. we already have what we came for," Ronnie Anne replied."

"Three things before you go on your merry way," Lisa said as she handed Ronnie Anne a USB stick and handed Clyde a copy of the data she got from Lincoln and handed copies of Lincoln's Pokémon drawings to them."

"What are these supposed to be?" Ronnie Anne asked."

"A flash drive containing back up files of all the footage Luan has stashed in her room. she had me make several backups in case something happens to her collection, along with copies of the data incase Clyde wants to show to brother units' other friends and copies of his drawing of Pokémon as well" Lisa replied."

"Ok, but why are you giving this drive to me? if there's stuff on here that shows just how twisted this family is, I can easily post it all on the web to completely destroy your family's reputation, you know that, right?" Ronnie Anne asked raising her eyebrow."

The louds were shocked as everyone glared at Luan.

"You had footages of embarrassing moments of your family especially your brother?!" Giggles asked."

Luan couldn't answer.

"And you gave it to Ronnie Anne?! do you care about my I mean our reputation?!" Lola asked."

"No I don't, after seeing everything so far, our reputation is nothing and our brother's trust is more important," Lisa replied."

Lincoln felt touched and surprised.

"Consider it a show of good faith. it's to show that despite my actions towards our brother, or rather, a lack of actions, I still want to help you guys out," Lisa replied."

"Well, how exactly does this help us out?" Ronnie Anne asked, eyeing the USB stick."

"You could always post all of the content on that USB on the internet and tear our family apart completely, or you can follow Lincoln's example, and just let go of the grudge," Lisa explained."

"That's... really something, having her decide like that," Carlos said."

"I know, she'll make the right choice," Arturo said."

Ronnie Anne nodded.

"I don't know. this is a lot to trust me with, you know that, right?" Ronnie Anne asked."

"I know that you'll make the right choice," Lisa replied."

"Exactly," Maria said."

just then, they heard the front door slam open, with Lynn screaming in rage.

"NO ONE BOTHER ME FOR THE REST OF THE DAY, GOT IT?!" Lynn screamed as she stormed upstairs and slammed her bedroom door shut."

the audible sounds of her cursing and screaming could be heard perfectly.

"Yup, talk about sore loser," Rusty said."

Lynn growls until the parents glare back at her making her back off.

"you guys can go through Lincoln's bedroom window. he has an inflatable slide in case of an emergency," Lucy said." He used it to avoid Luna and go to his first concert."

"Oh yeah, Link told me about that," Clyde said."

"Why would he do that?" Sam asked."

Luna explains the event of Lincoln's first concert.

"Luna, you really need to control yourself when it comes to first concerts," Sam said."

Luna chuckles.

"Let's hope she does control herself for Lily's first concert in the future," Sully said."

"I'm making sure I do," Luna said."

"We'll continue our discussion later, Lisa. this isn't over by a longshot," Ronnie Anne said as Lucy helped sneak her and the others into Lincoln's bedroom."

"I just realized that it's your first time in Lincoln's room," Sid whispered."

Ronnie Anne blushed knowing that Sid was right, and he's been in her room when he visits great lakes city.

the goth girl then noticed Leni walking upstairs, and towards Lisa's room.

"I'm assuming the game went poorly?" Lisa asked."

"Not really poorly. it was more like her team lost without scoring even one point. that, and she got herself banned from softball until she learns to be a team player and not to rely on luck anymore, her team were temporally disqualified from the league for 3 seasons, and her entire team turned their backs on her. and let's not even get started on all the face shots she got," Leni replied."

"Yikes! well, it's just karma giving Lynn her just desserts," Lisa replied."

"Definitely karma," Myrtle said."

Lynn looked down in shame.

"What kind of desserts did karma give her? pie? ice cream?" Leni questioned."

"Eh, not quite. I'm saying that Lynn is getting her comeuppance for mistreating our brother unit so badly," Lisa explained."

"Oh, I think I get it," Leni said before checking to make sure the coast was clear. "Speaking of Lincoln, can Lana and I come in and try to talk things out with him the next time he calls because I heard her talk to Charles this morning?"

"Anyone is more than welcome to come in and talk to Lincoln. they just have to do so on their own accord. so, it's probably best not to mention apologizing to Lincoln to the others. they might raise quite the fuss regarding the matter," Lisa suggested."

"Make sense since two certain sisters will get upset," Carol said."

Lori and Lynn winced.

"I think I understand," Leni said as she left leaving lucy to talk with her little sister."

"What is it, Lucy?" Lisa asked."

"I think it's high time for me to come clean about 'that' incident with the toilet," Lucy said."

'Toilet incident?' Haiku thought.'

"Are you sure you want to do it? no one is going to force you to do it, and I'm sure Lincoln will agree with me on this," Lisa said."

"I am. it's high time I repaid Lincoln for all the kindness he's shown me over the years, especially now that he's giving us a second chance, "Lucy replied."

Lisa nodded silently.

Everyone smiled at Lucy.

"Very well. shall we do this after dinner? at least that way, Lynn can have some time to cool off," Lisa suggested."

"Fair enough," Lucy replied as she excited the bedroom. " I just hope I don't come to regret this decision."

meanwhile, at the Santiago household, in Ronnie Anne's room,

"Good god almighty! how do these girls sleep at night?! Ronnie Anne exclaimed in disgust, as she was watching the footage from the USB stick Lisa gave her."

the footage was mostly the same thing, just a bunch of clips of Lincoln's mishaps over the years. she did snicker at a few of them, but the majority of clips caused her to become disgusted with the treatment Lincoln got from his family. she was about to watch the next clip, when she saw her brother's truck pull into the driveway. she quickly backed out of the video player, ejected the USB, and closed her laptop. she left the room to greet bobby just as her brother walked in.

"Yeah, how do you guys sleep at night after doing those things to Lincoln?" Ronnie Anne asked." Too bad we can't see the footage."

The sisters look down in shame.

'I wonder what's on that footage,' Lola thought.'

"Hey Bobby, how'd the game go?" Ronnie Anne asked."

"Not so great. it seemed like everything that could go wrong with the squirrel's did go wrong, especially for Lynn, "Bobby replied."

'Serves that jock right for her role in this mess,' Ronnie Anne thought coldly.'

"By the way, I talked to Lori about your question last night," Bobby stated catching his sister's attention once again."

"Oh yeah? so, what's the scoop?" Ronnie Anne asked."

"According to her, he's helping out a researcher friend of their grandfather's over in Japan with some zoology, from what she told me," Bobby replied."

"Is that so? well, at least I know he's up to something productive," Ronnie Anne said." (thinking) 'that's just like Lori to tell my brother her own version of the truth to keep herself out of trouble. I still half a mind to post all those video's Lisa gave me on the internet.'

The sisters get scared.

"Nie-nie? is something wrong?" Bobby asked snapping his sister out of her thoughts."

"Huh? oh, yeah. just have a lot on my mind," Ronnie Anne replied."

"Well, perhaps if you're worried about Lincoln, maybe we can ask their grandfather to talk to his friend about having you go and help Lincoln out with this zoology project," Bobby said causing Ronnie Anne to roll her eyes."

"Me? going to this kanto place and joining Lincoln on his journey? why that's...," Ronnie Anne said." (Ronnie Anne stopped her thoughts, as she took a moment to think it over) 'doesn't actually sound like such a bad idea.'

"Yeah, that is a good idea," Sid said."

"I agree," Ronnie Anne said."

back at the loud house,

after things had finally calmed down with Lynn (or as calm as can possibly be with cursing Lincoln's name under her breath), the family had sat down to a nice quiet dinner, albeit with a bit more sullen mood. lucy had been fidgeting nervously because tonight was the night where she had to come clean about her princess pony books. though she had to admit, she was still worried about being ridiculed by her sisters once it was over.

"Your princess pony book?" Boris asked."

"They're Lincoln's pony books," Lola replied."

'No, I have to do this! for Lincoln's sake, as well as my own!' Lucy thought.' (speaks up) "Uh, there's something I need to talk to you all about after dinner. could we all meet up in Lisa's room?"

"Uh, sure Luce. what's this about? you and rocky having troubles?" Luna asked."

"I guess in this story we're a couple just like us now," Lucy said."

"Nah, she probably has another poem she wants to hear," Luan stated shoveling in another mouthful of food."

"It's nothing like that. it's more like a confession I have to make. meet me in Lisa's room after dinner," lucy said as she left the table, and made her way upstairs."

After dinner.

"Well, let's go hear what lucy has to say, "Rita said as she got up from her seat."

"Count me out! I don't want anything to do with that traitor for quite a while!" Lynn stated."

"Junior, your sister has requested us to come up and hear what she has to say, and we're all going to hear her out, without exception or excuses!" Lynn sr. retorted sounding like she was losing his temper with the young athlete again."

"Ugh, fine! it had better be quick. the dream boat is coming on soon, and I want to see who's going home, "Lynn grumbled as she and the others ascended the staircase."

inside Lisa's room,

"You realize that there's no going back from this, right?" Lisa asked."

"I came up here fully prepared for that," Lucy replied as the rest of the family piled in."

"Alright, so what's this about?" Lori asked her tone indicating that she couldn't care less."

"Ok, I'll cut right to the chase so you can waste your pathetic time on your phone Lori. do you remember the princess pony comics?" lucy asked flinching slightly. her sisters were surprised that she brought it up."

"You mean those repulsive comics that Lincoln clogged the toilet with a while back? what about them, apart from reminding us that we need to get back to teasing him about it?" Lola replied."

"And I don't waste my time on my phone!" Lori said."

Everyone deadpans her.

"Well, to tell the truth, those comics weren't his," Lucy said."

"Weren't his'? what does that mean?" Luan asked before she put the pieces together." you mean to tell me that...?"

"Yes. those princess pony comics were mine," Lucy finally blurted out."

The sisters were shocked.

a few moments of awkward silence passed before Lori spoke up.

"Lucy, I know how much Lincoln means to you, for whatever reason, but you shouldn't go taking the blame for his screwups. he even admitted those were his comics," Lori stated."

"Exactly," Lola said."

"I figured you say that. Lisa?" lucy turned to Lisa, who then showed the security footage from the night in question, showing lucy throwing her book into the toilet, as a half-asleep Lincoln walked in and flushed the toilet, causing it to flood."

the louds were all dumbstruck at what they had just saw. Lucy's claim to her confession was proven valid because of this. Lynn sr. felt especially bad for Lincoln for that event, causing him to miss his comic convention that day. the loud sisters were in the same boat, for they had just found out they teased Lincoln for an entire month for absolutely nothing at all.

"But why did Lincoln take the fall for you?" Luan asked."

"Because he knows that I can't handle all of your immature teasing the way he can. besides even I need a break from being a slave to the darkness from time to time," lucy replied."

"Immature teasing?" Rita asked."

Lucy explains the events of sleuth and consequences. Rita gets upset.

"Girls! what gives you the right teasing your brother for loving comics and dressing up like his favorite character?" She asked."

"We think its lame and he's too old for it and pop culture is just for kids," Lori replied."

Becky, Chaz, Joey and Huggins, get mad.

"If pop culture is just for kids, then how do you explain San Diego Comic-Con?" Becky asked."

"Yeah, and Japan with manga, anime, and most of the video games?" Haiku asked."

"Bottom line, comics can be enjoyed for all ages," Huggins said."

"Exactly, and you have no right to make fun of him for it," Rita said." especially you Lori, you're the oldest and supposed to be mature, would you make fun of your friends if they like Ace Savy?"

"Of course not," Lori replied." I would be a jerk."

"So, if its Lincoln, you can tease him," Lynn sr. asked sarcastically."

Lori couldn't answer.

"And furthermore, you can't just automatically blame him for clogging the toilet despite having history," Lance said."

"Yeah, how do we know it wasn't any of you want to blame him because he's a boy?" Joey asked."

The sisters gasp.

"That is so sexist!" Lori said."

"Is it?" Dana asked."

"Yeah, is it?" Roger asked."

The sisters couldn't answer.

the other sisters all shared sentiments about what their spooky sister had shared. Lynn, on the other had just stood there in silence. a small part of her felt bad about all the teasing they did to Lincoln over the comics and wanted to apologize to Lucy, but this was overtaken by a much larger part of her that was still sour about her game that day. she needed a scapegoat to take her mind off of what she declared to be a most unnecessary punishment, and lucy had just provided the perfect opportunity for that.

"Wow lucy, I had no idea you were into something like that. maybe we should start calling you 'pony girl' from now on," Lynn said in a taunting manner."

"Go ahead Lynn. I'll wait until it's out of your system," Lucy replied."

Lynn took that invite and started hurling insults and taunts directly at her spooky sister. it didn't take long for the rest of the sisters to join in, as they began hurling their own insults and taunts at lucy. all the sisters minus Leni, Luna, and Lana that is, who were impressed not only with lucy's courage to clear her brother's name but with Lincoln sticking up for lucy, who looked like she was starting to buckle under all the hazing she was getting.

Everyone glares at the sisters minus Leni, Luna, and Lana.

"Real mature girls," Dana said."

The sisters felt bad.

"Alright guys, that's enough!" Luna called out as she, Leni, and Lana went to defend lucy."

"Stay out of this if you're not going to tease her about this!" Lynn ordered."

"She has a point. princess pony is the worst thing to ever disgrace this world, even more so than Lincoln, and he wears his underwear on the outside in that stupid hero costume of his!" Lori added."

Becky, Chaz, and Joey get furious at Lori.

"Girls, that's enough!" Rita ordered only to go unheard until Lynn sr. slammed his fist on Lisa's table shutting the sisters up."

"Lucy, I'm both a little disappointed in you for clogging the toilet, but I understand why and seeing that you're right about your sisters being immature about yours and Lincoln's hobbies and seeing him do his big brother duties you're not grounded," Lynn sr. said as turned to the sisters who were teasing her."

Lucy hugs Lynn Sr.

"Thanks dad and I'm sorry," she said."

"It's ok, and I do understand why you did it," Lynn sr. said." (towards Lincoln) "Lincoln, I'm sorry for accusing you and grounding you."

"It's fine dad, I know I have history of clogging the toilet," Lincoln said."

"And your sisters shouldn't accuse you without proof," Albert said."

"As for the ones teasing her, you're grounded until further notice or you apologize to lucy and Lincoln and act your age, and never judge your siblings' hobbies again," Lynn sr. stated."

"I agree, they have no right to judge their siblings' hobbies," Leonard said."

"But daddy, its princess pony! even I find it to be repulsive!" Lola said only to be shut up with an icy glare her mother and father shot her way."

"She has a point. anyone who likes princess pony deserves to be a laughingstock," Lori added only to receive the same glare as Lola did."

"I don't care if its blarney the dinosaur marring a fairy, you all should be ashamed of yourselves for treating her the way you did! besides you don't see me, or your father, or Leni, or Luna, or Lana, or even Lisa teasing her, do you? Lori, would you laugh at bobby if he read princess pony huh?" Rita asked as she yelled at her daughters minus Leni, Luna, Lana, and Lisa."

"Of course not, Bobby's my boyfriend and would never make fun of him," Lori replied defensively."

"Oh, so you don't judge Bobby's hobbies, but you judge your siblings?" Rita asked angered."

"Yeah Lori, that sounds really dumb," Bobby said."

Lori couldn't say anything.

"But mom we..." Lori said before Rita interrupted her."

"I don't want to hear it, Lori! not only are you all NOT watching dream boat tonight, but you and your sisters are also not watching any of your shows for 2 weeks except for Leni, Luna, Lana, and Lisa because they didn't tease Lucy, you're all dismissed to your rooms for the night." Rita said."

"That's a suitable punishment," Myrtle said."

the sisters (minus Leni, Luna, Lucy, Lana, and Lisa) were shocked.

"But we..." Lola said."

"That's one strike for each of you. in your case junior, that's two. collect three strikes, and all of your future events are cancelled until your brother comes back home! now then, get to your rooms, NOW!" Rita yelled."

not wanting to incur their parent's anger any further, the four sisters quickly excited the bedroom, and made their way to their own rooms.

"I think we've given them to much free time that they believe they don't do no wrong." Rita told her husband."

"Come on, we're not like that," Lola said." Right?"

The parents give her deadpan look.

"Maybe we are like that," Leni said."

"I agree," Lynn sr. said." Now that that's out of the way, Leni, Luna, and Lana, I can honestly say that we're proud of the three of you. you stood up for your sister, despite what she did to Lincoln that day."

"Well, even if Lincoln's...you know what Lynn's preaching, he's still a good person. I guess we were just following our instincts," Luna said."

"Then your instincts are broken," Sully said."

"Well, that's good to hear," Rita said." (thinking) 'now if we can only get rid of that ridiculous notion of Lincoln being bad luck, we can get this family back on track.'

"Definitely, Rita said."

"So, what do we do now?" Leni asked."

"Well, you five can watch the dream boat if you want to," Rita replied."

the four complied except for lucy, as they made their way downstairs, while lucy was heading to the attic.

"Lucy, aren't you joining your sisters," Lynn sr. asked."

"No thanks, I'm just going to my dark quiet place to cool off," Lucy replied pulling down the attic stairs."

"You know, if I'm being honest, your mother and I wish we had half the courage you had today in what you did," Lynn sr. said."

"Really?" Lucy asked."

"Yes. we both still want to talk things out with your brother, but we're still on edge about doing so," Rita replied."

"Well, when Lisa and I talked to him, all we did was acknowledge that we were wrong, and delivered our apologies. he was willing to forgive us, but he warned us that if something like this ever happen again, then he'll disown all of us on the spot," Lucy said."

"Yikes, he really did say that?" Lynn sr. asked." blanching at the thought of being disowned by their son."

"I understand why we're scared but we need courage," Lynn sr. said."

"Pretty much. and Lisa and I both vowed to do whatever we can to earn back his trust and love. we're not screwing up this chance," Lucy replied."

"That's good to hear. speaking of your brother, did he ever specify if he wanted to come back home?" Rita asked."

"From what he told us, he's loving it in kanto, and he wants to participate in that Pokémon league thing the professor told us about," Lucy replied."

"Oh, I see, "Rita said as she and her husband were heading downstairs. "Well, in any case, your four sisters are downstairs watching the dream boat you can join us when you're ready."

"That...actually sounds nice," Lucy replied as the parent's head downstairs while she went into the attic."

much later at night in the attic,

as the rest of the family was fast asleep, lucy was still up with her spell book, her vampire bust, Edwin. she also had a crystal ball, and trying to make contact with her great grandmother Harriet."

"Calling the spirit of Harriet loud. come in, great grandma Harriet," Lucy said eventually summoning forth a spirit that could easily be mistaken for her doubleganger."

"Hey, its Harriet!" Lance said."

"Wow, she does look like Lucy," Rocky said."

"Ah, lucy how's my dear great granddaughter doing these days?" Harriet asked."

"Could be better, "Lucy replied."

"Yes. I saw how half of your sisters treated you so poorly earlier this evening, and for doing something very noble on that note. I'm most disappointed in each of them," Harriet said."

"Yeah. even with getting consoled by mom and dad, I still feel crushed. now I know how Lincoln felt during that whole month of getting teased," Lucy said."

"She saw all that?!" Lola said."

"While I'm not happy with how you were a player in how your family mistreated him, I must commend you for having the courage to clear his name. even over kanto, I'm sure he's the proudest of you," Harriet said."

"Thanks great grandma. by the way, apart from giving moral support, is there some way I could help him out on his journey?" Lucy asked."

"I bet great grandma Harriet knew what we did as well," Lucy said." Just like with her broach."

Lori winced.

"Hmm, I don't have anything in my trunk that can help in that regard, but I do have one thing that can help your family get their act together," Harriet replied."

"Really?" lucy asked."

"Indeed, I just have to summon an old friend of mine, "Harriet replied."

"An old friend?" Luna asked."

"So, will this friend of your give them real karma "lucy asked."

"Yes. now I just have to call him," Harriet replied as she pulled out a book of spells." Here it is the karmic misfortune curse, this curse will cause bad luck to those who wronged you or someone you know, and the only way to break the curse is to apologize to ones they've wronged and earn their forgiveness. that's the only way to break the curse. don't worry those who already made amends won't be affected."

(Feeling scared) "There's a karma curse?" Lola asked."

The family gulped.

a dark smile crept its way onto lucy's face.

"This curse is perfect way to show them what real bad luck is all about!" Lucy said."

"Normally, I'm against this but your sisters deserve true karma for their actions," Rosa said."

The sisters winced.

That's chapter 15, next what discoveries will Lincoln find in mount moon we'll just have to see.

and guest you were right it was both crocanaw and feraligatr, also Lana will have timburr and trubish later in my saga and we know she can only carry three Pokémon because she's 6-years-old.
