Axel was traveling in Route 1, home of pokemon like pidgey and ratatat.While traveling, Axel's Sneasal was in many battles.It was a good idea that Axel bought several healing items for his pokemon.
When near the end of Route 1, Axel encountered a Pikachu, this electric pokemon is rare in Route 1, however, they are encountered often in Pallet Town.
Axel threw a pokeball, which contained a Sneasal. "Sneasal, use scratch," Axel said.His pokemon dashed at the Pikachu, and attacked it using it's sharp claws.The Pikachu was severly damaged by the attack, and it attacked with a thundershock.
"Sneasal dodge it and use scratch again," Axel told his Sneasal.The Sneasal jumped to the right, and avoided Pikachu's thundershock attack.The Sneasal then again used scratch.The Pikachu defended against the attack, so it didn't take as mush damage as it normally would.
The Pikachu used agility, so it was running faster, and before Axel had enough time to tell the Sneasal what to do, the Pikachu tackled Sneasal, then used a thundershock.This combo did intense damage to Sneasal, since it had low defence.
Axel ordered his Sneasal to use scratch, and the Pikachu didn't dodge it.The Pikachu looked weak enough to catch, so Axel threw a pokeball.The Pikachu couldn't escape the pokeball.The pokeball shook 3 times, and Pikachu was caught.Axel returned Sneasal to it's pokeball, and picked up the pokeball containing a Pikachu.Axel then exited Route 1, and headed on to Viridian City.
