Hey readers - here we are with another new chapter. I'm actually quite relieved to be able to post this today, since I wasn't sure I'd be able to finish it in time. For some reason, I've REALLY been struggling to rewrite this episode, so I'll be glad when it's done : )

Anyway, let's move on to the winner of the last voting topic. I'm happy to say that the winner was... Snorlax! At least, I think it was. I'm going to be honest with you guys, this one is a little tricky to work out from the reviews. You see, one of them wasn't very clear as to if the reader wanted Fearow or Exeggcute. If they wanted Fearow, it would have tied with Snorlax, but if they wanted Exeggcute, then Snorlax was the outright winner. Since this wasn't a clear-cut tie either though, I didn't want to call this vote a tie, so in the end I just went off the reviews that I could decipher. Either way, Nolan is now getting a Snorlax, but I wanted to be honest with all of you about the confusion : )

Finally, I'd like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone that have reviewed, favourited and followed this story. It really helps me to keep writing it, so thank you all so much, and please keep it up : )

Please remember that Pokemon is not mine, only my OCs are.

I hope you enjoy this chapter : )

Ash Catches A Pokemon - Part 6

Nolan immediately felt a shiver of dread run down his spine and his blood turned icy in his veins, as the shrill, chilling laughter echoed through the forest clearing, and thundered in his ears. A brief flash of fear washed over him, but the golden haired boy was quick to shrug it off. There was no point in panicking and jumping to conclusions - even if he was ninety-nine percent positive that he knew who that voice belonged too. The young boy was praying to every Legendary Pokemon that he'd ever heard of that he was wrong though. Because if the voice did belong to the person that he thought it did, then he and his friends might just have found themselves in deeper trouble then they'd be able to get themselves out of. After all, this time they were in a forest - there would be no Officer Jenny to call for help if things were to go south this time. With a dark grimace marring his handsome face, Nolan nervously cast his icy blue eyes around the clearing that they were in, and soon enough spotted the source of the evil cackle. The golden haired boy's stomach lurched unpleasantly as all his worst fears were confirmed as he processed the sight.

Jessie.

The person that was laughing with such intense cruelty and malice was Jessie.

Jessie from Team Rocket.

The gang of criminals had clearly either landed in the forest after blasting off from the force of the explosion back at the Pokemon Centre, or else they had followed Nolan and the others all the way from the city. Either way this was obviously an ambush, and Nolan highly doubted that it was by just pure coincidence that they had crossed paths with this particular group of thieves so soon again after the last time. No, that was far too bizarre to be the case. This was deliberate, and the golden haired boy dreaded to think what they after. Perhaps revenge, or perhaps to steal their Pokemon. One way or the other, Nolan and the rest of the group had somehow found themselves in hot water once again, and he knew that it was up to him to get them all out of it. He couldn't let Team Rocket steal Meadow and Welkin away from him. He just couldn't.

And so with baited breath, Nolan, just like everyone else, watched with a grimace on his face, as Team Rocket quickly got down to business.

"To protect the world from devastation" Jessie was the one to speak first as she began reciting the same 'motto' that they had back at the Pokemon Centre in Viridian City.

"To unite all peoples within our nation" James added, leering unpleasantly at the three young trainers, twirling his rose elegantly between his fingers.

"To denounce the evils of truth and love" Jessie declared boldly, picking up their well-rehearsed speech again.

"To extend our reach to the stars above" James struck a dramatic pose for added effect.

"Jessie" the female criminal announced her name, as if any of them could have forgotten it even if they'd wanted to. The events of their last meeting had left their scars after all.

"James" the male criminal added, a nasty glint in his eye as he looked over the group that had made themselves his enemies.

"Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!" Jessie shouted, startling a couple of nearby roosting Pidgey right out of their tree.

"Surrender now, or prepare to fight!" James threatened them in a very ominous manner.

"Meowth! That's right!" Meowth finished up their little chant, which they clearly performed every time they were about to steal from someone.

There was a moment of stunned silence... before...

"No - not this again!" Ash let out a low moan of sheer exasperation, before the young raven haired boy fixed Team Rocket with a stern glare, "Err, we're kinda busy right now, so if you'd kindly just shove off, we'd really appreciate it!"

Nolan couldn't help but smirk at the oh-so-elegant way that his best friend had worded that. In truth though, the golden haired boy had been thinking along similar lines himself.

Team Rocket on the other hand weren't quite so amused. A dangerous snarl twisted its way on to Jessie's beautiful face as she responded.

"Quiet, little boy!" the magenta haired woman snapped back in a patronising tone of voice, clearly not in the mood for a verbal sparring match today, "We're not here to listen to you! We're here to get your Pokemon!"

And in perfect synchronisation, all three members of Team Rocket pointed their fingers in the direction of Pikachu. The small yellow creature couldn't help but blink in confusion as they did so.

"Hand over that Pikachu!" James demanded in a tone that clearly wasn't meant to be argued with.

And with those few simple words, Nolan's very worst fears were all but confirmed.

After all, if Team Rocket were after Pikachu, then chances are they'd be after Meadow as well. And even if they weren't, well, Nolan wasn't prepared to risk her safety like that. His partner was far too precious to him. He wasn't about to chance losing her all because he took his eye off the ball. No way. The golden haired boy wasn't even sure if the criminals actually even wanted their Pokemon, or if they simply wanted to take them just to spite him and Ash for their involvement in stopping the thieves' attempt to steal the Pokemon back in Viridian City. All Nolan knew was that it really all boiled down to one thing.

They were going to have to fight if they wanted to keep their Pokemon.

Nolan grit his teeth and clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning a stark white from the action. There was no way that he was going to let these crooks just walk off with Meadow, Welkin or Pikachu for that matter. Each and every Pokemon in their group was special, and they all wanted to stay together. Nolan would fight until his dying breath if necessary to ensure that that was exactly what happened. Let Team Rocket do their worst.

The golden haired boy would be ready for them.

"Hey! This is my Pikachu!" Ash protested angrily, taking a step forwards to stand protectively in front of his beloved partner, "Go out and find your own!"

Nolan and Misty both glared at the members of Team Rocket as well as they flanked Ash on either side. The two of them were fully prepared to help their friend protect the little Electric Type Pokemon if it came down to it.

The glares of the three children did little to frighten off the gang of criminals. If anything, Jessie, James and Meowth all just seemed amused rather than intimidated.

"The only Pikachu we want is that one" Jessie informed them with a dark smile on her face.

"We're only looking for the rarest, most valuable Pokemon in the world, kid" James sneered down his nose at Ash condescendingly.

The cyan haired man didn't notice the way that Meowth threw him a reproachful look for revealing that little titbit.

"And that special Pikachu is just the kind of Pokemon we need!" Jessie nodded in agreement with her male counterpart.

Unbeknownst to her, Jessie also found herself on the wrong end of one of Meowth's glares. Before either of the two human criminals knew what was going on, the Scratch Cat Pokemon had leapt up into the air, and proceeded to unleash the full force of his Fury Swipes attack on their faces. Jessie and James both yelped and moaned and whimpered in what had to be utterly agonising pain. Nolan, Ash and Misty could do little more than stare at the spectacle in bewilderment.

"Ya idiots!" Meowth scolded his human friends as he continued clawing at their faces in a manic fury, "Stop givin' away all our secrets!"

Blinking in a rather lame fashion since he was so taken aback by what he was seeing, Ash just barely managed to give voice to the question that had appeared in his mind at the criminals' words.

"Is my Pikachu really that special?" the raven haired boy wanted to know.

Because of course Pikachu was special. He had been ever since the moment that Ash had first seen him appear out of the pokeball back in Professor Oak's lab. But that was in the sense that he was special specifically to Ash. He loved his little buddy so much it was almost like a physical pain. He knew that it was the same for Nolan and Meadow, as such was the relationship between all partners. But Team Rocket had to be talking about something else. Pikachu had to be special in a way that even Ash didn't understand.

The raven haired Pokemon trainer couldn't help but wonder at what that might mean, and to general astonishment, it appeared that he was actually going to get an answer. Meowth had stopped in his assault on Jessie and James, and had turned to face the young boy in order to reply.

"Your Pikachu's powers impress even me" the Scratch Cat Pokemon informed the group of young trainers, and coming from a Pokemon that could actually talk, they knew that it was a sincere compliment, "I really got a charge out of its incredible attack da last time we met. Its powers exceed its evolutionary level. Your Pokemon..."

Unfortunately Meowth was cut off from providing Ash and his friends with the rest of what was actually proving to be an interesting and quite useful lecture. This time Jessie and James were the ones that were losing their tempers, and using their distinct heights to their advantage, they were literally stomping all over Meowth as they pummelled him into the ground. Nolan couldn't help but cringe as he watched this happening. These people wanted Pikachu, and possibly Meadow as well. Just the thought of their beloved partners being treated in such a terrible way was enough to make Nolan feel sick to his stomach.

It only served to make his desire to protect their Pokemon from Team Rocket all the more stronger.

"Now you're the one giving away all our secrets!" Jessie yelled angrily as she continued grinding the heel of her boot into the back of Meowth's skull.

"Shut up before you tell them everything!" James snapped, landing blow after blow on poor Meowth's head.

Just barely managing to remain conscious from the quite frankly brutal assault he was on the receiving end of, Meowth wailed loudly as he tried to crawl away.

"I'M IN CHARGE!" Meowth bellowed over the cacophony his teammates were making, "CUT IT OUT!"

Nolan couldn't help but sweat-drop as he watched the debacle unravelling before them. Then he rolled his eyes. These losers may be total idiots, but it was precisely their stupidity that made them so unpredictable, and therefore dangerous. The blonde boy knew that he couldn't afford to underestimate them, or else risk paying the steepest of prices. Still, it was a little hard to take them too seriously, after having witnessed their antics first-hand.

"Alright listen!" Nolan cut in as he finally lost all patience with the ridiculous situation that had presented itself to him and his friends, "We haven't got all day, so why don't you three just stop wasting everybody's time and beat it?!"

His words seemed to be enough to shake Team Rocket out of their petty squabbling. The trio of terror immediately straightened up, their sneers back in place, as they turned their attention back to the young Pokemon trainers.

"Oh we'll beat it alright, you little twerp" Jessie jeered down her nose nastily at the blonde haired trainer, "We'll beat it right after your little friend there makes things easy, and hands over that Pikachu!"

Nolan opened his mouth, an angry retort right on the tip of his tongue, but unfortunately he never got the chance to say it, as Ash beat him to it.

"Forget it!" the raven haired boy growled, clenching his fists so tightly that all the knuckles on his hands turned white. His blood was boiling in his veins at just the thought of these pieces of scum getting their hands on his precious partner. There was no way in hell that he was just going to hand Pikachu over to them. Not in a million years.

Apparently, Jessie and James had been expecting such a reaction.

The two human members of the criminal organisation both just smiled, a cold dangerous smile, as in almost perfect synchronisation, they both reached down to their respective belts and each removed a pokeball. They each held their own capsule device up threateningly towards the group of younger trainers.

Rather than be intimidated by their actions however, Nolan couldn't help but roll his eyes and scoff loudly in disbelief.

"You two sure you wanna go down that road again?!" the golden haired Pokemon trainer asked them out of sheer disbelief, almost feeling sorry for the bunch of idiots in front of him. "Didn't you learn your lesson the last time you tried that? Our side beat you hands-down, and Pikachu was weak at the time!"

Ash and Misty both mutely nodded in agreement, keeping their glares trained firmly on the thieves that were trying to steal their Pokemon.

Rather then try to see the truth and logic in Nolan's words however, the members of Team Rocket all simply snorted, laughing menacingly as they glared the youngsters down.

"That was nothing more than a lucky fluke on your part" James told him in a tone that practically oozed with condescension, "But your luck is about to run out, kid".

"Exactly!" Jessie concurred gleefully, "This time we're not gonna hold anything back, so if you don't want anyone to get hurt, you twerps better hand over the Pikachu right now!"

"Not gonna happen!" Ash gritted out through his teeth, glaring darkly at the woman for her audacity alone.

"Not in a million years!" Misty backed him up, hating the idea of any Pokemon, even one that didn't belong to her, ending up in the hands of people like these jerks.

"Never" Nolan nodded in agreement. He'd rather fight to the death than willingly sacrifice his best friend's partner to these pieces of dirt.

Jessie and James both just smiled at them all again. It was almost as if the two human members of Team Rocket had been hoping that they'd say that.

"Then you leave us no choice" James smirked at the three younger trainers arrogantly. It was almost as if the very thought of Team Rocket losing again hadn't even crossed the man's mind.

"Pokemon Battle!" Jessie exclaimed as both she and James each tossed the pokeball that they were respectively holding, "Ekans, go!"

"Koffing, go get them!" James added menacingly.

The forest clearing was suddenly illuminated with a dazzlingly bright light as the two pokeballs snapped open, and just as they had back at the Pokemon Centre, Ekans and Koffing materialised in front of Nolan and his friends. Already the two Poison Type Pokemon were leering down at them nastily. It was clear that Team Rocket honestly thought that they had the advantage this time.

Nolan scoffed and shook his head.

Well... he, Ash and Misty would just have to prove them wrong then, wouldn't they?

"Hey!" Ash protested angrily as the two Poison Type Pokemon loomed over Pikachu, clearly intent on overpowering the little guy with numbers, "Two against one is cheating!"

Nolan had to work very hard to refrain from rolling his eyes at his best friend's outburst. But really, what was Ash expecting? These guys were criminals. Playing by the rules simply wasn't in their nature. Seconds later, Jessie practically voiced as much.

"Well as we say - All's fair in love, war and Pokemon Battles!" she sneered nastily down at the raven haired boy.

"I say that saying's rotten!" Ash retorted angrily, practically shaking he was getting so worked up by these losers, "And so are you!"

"Of course we are!" James shot back, almost incredulous that Ash even had to say something so obvious out loud, "We're the bad guys!"

"Don't worry Ash" Nolan chimed in, assuring his best friend as he stepped up to his side, "Me and Meadow will help level the playing field, right Meadow?"

"Saur!" Meadow nodded vigorously, quickly extending her vines from the base of her bulb and holding them at the ready.

Ash flashed his closest human friend a grateful smile, but it almost immediately faltered and was replaced by a heavy frown.

"Thanks Nolan, but don't the Pokemon League rules say that only one Pokemon can be used at a time?" the raven haired boy queried uncertainly.

"That's not entirely true" Nolan shook his head, thinking about Double Battles, a perfectly legitimate way of battling in which trainers paired up to battle other pairs, so that a total of four Pokemon were all on the field at once. There were also other variants of this type of battling style. He was about to explain as much to Ash, but before he had the chance to utter so much as a single word, Misty impatiently cut in over the top of him.

"Never mind the League rules!" she exclaimed, incredulous that the boys were even thinking about such things at a time like this, "This isn't an official match Ash - this is a fight to make sure you don't lose all your Pokemon! Screw the rules!"

Whilst the three young trainers were busy discussing these things, Team Rocket had clearly decided that they weren't going to be wasting any more time. Taking advantage of their distracted state, James stepped forwards and issued a command to his own partner Pokemon.

"Koffing!" the cyan haired man yelled, gesturing elegantly with the fake rose he liked to carry, "Sludge attack, now!"

The jovial purple Pokemon grinned as he hovered through the air like a demented balloon. He immediately spat out a large blob of filthy, smell slime from his mouth. It shot through the air with impressive speed, and almost immediately hit Pikachu in the face, the little Electric Type Pokemon having been caught off-guard by the speed of the attack. The blob of slime splattered across Pikachu's face, seeping painfully into his eyes and completely blinding him.

"Pika!" Pikachu wailed in agony, immediately trying to rub the sludge out of his eyes with his tiny paws.

Ash, Nolan and Misty all looked at the small yellow creature in horrified surprise, aghast that they'd allowed themselves to become distracted, and thus gave Team Rocket the chance to attack first. It was a foolish mistake, one that Nolan prayed that they weren't about to pay dearly for.

The raven haired Pokemon trainer recovered from his surprise at the sneak attack quickly, immediately scooping his precious partner up into his arms. He levelled Team Rocket with a heated glare as he cradled a still whimpering Pikachu close to his chest.

"If you think you can use your dirty tricks to beat me, you're wrong!" he snapped, angry that they had dared to use such a cheap tactic against his poor Pikachu.

"Oh really?" James drawled sarcastically, amused instead of fazed by Ash's righteous anger, "Because personally I actually find them to be rather effective! Koffing, again! Sludge attack!"

Just as he had before, Koffing floated high in the air as he spat out another blob of disgusting brown slime, this time taking aim for Meadow. Nolan cried out in alarm as the smelly projectile soared through the air towards his partner, hut thankfully, his worries were unfounded. Thanks to witnessing what had happened to Pikachu, Meadow was able to react in time, and rolled out of the way of the attack before she could be blinded as well. She growled as she quickly righted herself on her feet, glaring up at the grinning Koffing that loomed in the air above their heads.

"Nice dodge Meadow!" Nolan cheered, before levelling Team Rocket with a glare that was practically acidic, it was filled with such loathing, "But we're not standing for this! So let's teach them a lesson with your Leech Seed attack!"

Just as eager as her precious human was to teach these vile crooks a lesson, Meadow nodded and quickly followed through with the order. Her bulb began to glow with a familiar green light, and moments later she fired a large seed that was also glowing in the direction of her opponent.

"Dodge it Koffing" James ordered casually, clearly not thinking much of Meadow's counterstrike.

Unfortunately, Koffing was able to dodge the incoming attack just as easily as Meadow had previously. Growling in frustration, the little Grass Type Pokemon fired off several more Leech Seeds in quick secession, but Koffing kept floating out of the way, much to Meadow's annoyance.

Whilst all of this had been going on, Ash had frantically been trying to help Pikachu get the sticky gunk out of his eyes, so that his Electric Type Pokemon could get in there and help their friends out. Unfortunately though, the slime just wasn't budging, and Ash was worried that if he tried much harder he might seriously damage Pikachu's eyes on a permanent basis. So giving it up as a bad job, the raven haired trainer quickly turned to Misty, who immediately gave him her full attention.

"They might try anything to get what they want" Ash reminded his friend, rather unnecessarily though since Misty was already fully aware of that, "But no matter what happens, don't let them have Pikachu, understand?"

He held Pikachu out for her to take.

Misty couldn't help but stare at him out of pure and unadulterated awe for a second. The young girl was deeply touched by the fact that despite only having just met her, Ash already trusted her enough to protect something as important and as precious as his partner Pokemon in a dangerous situation. Their friendship really was growing in leaps and bounds, and Misty wasn't about to betray that friendship now. So offering Ash an encouraging smile, she immediately accepted Pikachu from him.

"Of course Ash" Misty said gently, her tone nothing but utterly sincere, "I promise that I'll keep Pikachu out of Team Rocket's hands if it's the last thing I ever do".

Ash could tell just how much the girl genuinely meant that, and couldn't help but smile gratefully at her.

"Thanks Misty" he said in a surprisingly choked up voice.

"Anytime" she smiled back, before she quickly reminded him of something equally as important, "But now you need to go help Nolan! Go on! Quickly!"

Her urgent words were enough to drag Ash out of the moment and back to reality with a sharp bump, and vigorously nodding his head, Ash quickly turned his attention back to the battle that had been going on around them all this time. Thankfully Meadow had been holding her own, even after Ekans had joined the fray and was tag-teaming her with Koffing, but it was obvious that the little Grass Type Pokemon could do with some help. Well Ash wasn't about to let his friends down now, and so he was quick to give some to her.

"So..." Jessie drawled in wicked amusement as she noticed Ash reaching down to his belt to retrieve a pokeball, "What's your big battle plan? Because I have to warn you twerp, your little friend has barely been keeping us back!"

"Hey! Me and Meadow have been keeping you at bay just fine!" Nolan couldn't help but snap back, indignant at the taunt.

"Bulba!" Meadow growled as well, but quickly had to fend off a Poison Sting attack courtesy of Ekans with her Vine Whips before she could get too worked up.

Ash on the other hand simply ignored them all, thinking furiously about what was the best course of action for him to take here.

'I can't send Caterpie, he's too weak from the last battle' the raven haired trainer silently thought to himself.

With that realisation pretty much making the decision for him, Ash was left with little choice but to detach Pidgeotto's pokeball from his belt and hold it up high. The young boy knew that it wasn't exactly ideal since the Flying Type Pokemon still needed more time to rest so soon after being captured, not to mention that Ash hadn't had the opportunity to scan his new teammate and find out its move-set yet, but he didn't have a whole lot of other options right now. So gritting his teeth and hoping for the best, Ash lunged into action.

"Pidgeotto! Go!" the raven haired boy yelled, tossing the pokeball in his hand high into the air.

The capsule device snapped open, and in a burst of crimson light that cast eerie shadows around the forest clearing as it illuminated the surrounding trees, Ash's newest teammate materialised in the air before them. Already airborne and flapping its wings to stay that way, Pidgeotto glanced around, confused as to why it had been let out of the pokeball so soon after being told to rest inside it. Clearly having no idea what was going on or who these newcomers were, the bewildered Pidgeotto turned to its new trainer for an explanation.

"Geotto?" Pidgeotto tilted its head to the side in puzzlement.

"Pidgeotto! We're under attack!" Ash immediately cried out, wanting his new friend to be on its guard, "These creeps are from Team Rocket! They're trying to steal you and all our other Pokemon!"

Pidgeotto's eyes widened in shock at such a declaration.

"Hey! We are not creeps!" Jessie angrily protested, insulted by the term which Ash had used to describe her and her friends. "You should learn some respect for your elders, twerp!"

"I wouldn't worry about it Jessie" James smirked as he stepped up to his female counterpart, leering nastily down his nose at Ash and Nolan, "After we're through with them, this little boy and his friends won't dare to ever disrespect Team Rocket again!"

Nolan growled and clenched his fists, seriously having to work very hard to refrain from ripping that man apart with his bare hands. Before he had the chance to fire of a retort however, he was interrupted by Ash, who was still addressing his brown feathered Pokemon.

"Trust me" Ash said in a serious tone to his new Pidgeotto, "If they take you away, you won't be well looked after or loved at all. In fact, you and the others will be nothing more than their slaves. We can't let that happen!"

"Pidgeotto!" Pidgeotto, although deeply troubled and downright frightened by what Ash was saying, couldn't help but agree with the boy's assessment of their current predicament.

They had to fight back against these thieves. They just had to.

"Alright!" Ash couldn't help but cheer, pleased that Pidgeotto was on board with him and was willing to fight for their team, "But first of all..."

The raven haired boy trailed off as an idea came to mind, and before anyone else had the chance to act, or unfairly try to take advantage of his momentary distraction in Team Rocket's case, Ash rummaged around in his jacket pockets, and quickly withdrew his pokedex. He immediately pointed it at his newest teammate, and performed the same scan that Nolan had taught him how to do the previous night around the campfire.

Ash quickly scanned his russet coloured eyes over the information that the device had brought up.

The young trainer immediately found himself becoming impressed with his newest teammate all over again. His Pidgeotto had an impressive amount of moves in its arsenal. Gust, Quick Attack, Sand Attack, Whirlwind and Wing Attack to be precise. Ash immediately knew that he had made the right choice in capturing such a fine specimen of Pidgeotto. The information that Dexter had brought up also revealed that Pidgeotto's ability was Keen Eye, but more surprisingly, that its gender was female. Ash had thought that Pidgeotto had seemed and looked more masculine, so he had assumed that his new Pokemon was a male, but he quickly pushed such a ridiculous, almost sexist thought away. It... she, was perfect, and Ash already loved her dearly.

Now all he had to do was ensure that he would keep her.

"Already Pidgeotto, are you ready?" Ash called out as he put his pokedex back in his pocket and returned his attention to the fight ahead.

"Geotto!" Pidgeotto determinedly nodded her head in confirmation.

At their sides, Nolan and Meadow also both took a step forwards, both of them clearly ready and willing to keep going too.

"You good Meadow?" Nolan asked his precious partner to be sure.

"Saur!" Meadow growled vigorously.

Ash and Nolan both exchanged a dark look, but there was no denying the grim determination that was burning away in both boy's eyes. Nodding to each other, the two of them turned to glare at Team Rocket head on. It was obvious that a silent promise had just been made to each other and to the world at large.

And that promise was simple.

They weren't going to back down without a long, gruelling fight.

And there's part 6 done : )

I'm not too sure what I think about this chapter, since as I said before, I really struggled to get it written. Still, at least it revealed the gender of Ash's new Pokemon. I decided to make Pidgeotto a girl in this story since out of Ash's original team, five out of six are male, and since Pidgeotto's gender has - as far as I know at least - never been clarified in the canon anime, I decided to take some creative liberty : )

Anyway, let's move on to the newest voting topic : ) I'm actually quite looking forward to this one, since I've got a couple of ideas for each possible outcome : ) It's another new Pokemon vote, so here are today's options : )

Pokemon Options -

Safari Zone (Area 2) - Nidorino - Male - Modest Nature - Poison Point Ability

Safari Zone (Area 3) - Nidorina - Female - Jolly Nature - Poison Point Ability

Pokemon Mansion: - Koffing - Male - Naughty Nature - Levitate Ability

I decided I wanted to limit the amount of Poison Type Pokemon that Nolan will have on his team, since he already has a few type bunch-ups. That's why I decided to put Koffing, Nidorino and Nidorina in the same vote, rather than have them separate and end up with potentially all of them. But like I said, I have ideas for each possible outcome, so please vote for whichever Pokemon you guys want : )

Anyway, thank you so much for reading this chapter. I hope you enjoyed it.

Until the next time, keep on reading : )
