Pokemon: New Adventures

[du1387]

My first fic, it has a huge storyline, and I'm planning on writing it out. If you have any suggestions or want to be a guest trainer, please let me know.

Chapter One: VS Charmander.

It is the aspiration of many people to become a pokemon master. This aspiration was no different for the four heroes of Pallet town. Years ago, four amazing trainers, the Pokedex holders, received their pokemon from the towns Pokemon expert: Professor Oak. This was the case for many, but these trainers had performed great acts of heroacy. They defeated Team Rocket, stopped a crazed man from destroying the world, and traveled to places far and wide. Little did they know that all of the open ends that they had left were to be trodden upon by Four new unwitting heroes who were about to embark upon their journey to become as great as the Pokedex holders.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
A blonde haired boy groaned as the alarm clock went off. He hit the snooze button and rolled over. His mattress was the one thing he'd miss when he left. Unfortunately for him, he couldn't take it with him. He groaned when he thought about leaving his home town and traveling far and wide. It wasn't as though it excited him; nothing excited him these days. He'd been the ace trainer at the academy he'd been shipped off to as a child by his parents, but that didn't truly matter now. He'd only used rental pokemon, and when he'd graduated top of his class, he was taken home by his parents and told that now he could really leave and take care of himself. He slowly opened his eyes, and took in the sight of his room. It was plain white, just like his parents had made it while he had been at the academy. There were trainers manuals scattered across the white desk, and a laptop sitting to the side of the manuals. There were a few pictures of him and his friends at the academy, if you could call them that. Friends were just a polite way of saying that outside of being pitted against each other daily, they didn't argue. He looked out his window and saw a boy and two girls running down the street with smiles on their faces. They were probably heading towards Professor Oak's lab, he mused.

He knew who they were of course. The aspiring trainers: Michael and Lillie. The other girl's name was Meredith. The younger children worshipped her as a goddess simply because she had a pokemon: an eevee. He snorted, thinking about how weak it truly was. That eevee had never seen a battle in its life. It was apparently a gift from her father who had gone off to another region saying something about a cipher that he had to deal with. He turned from the window and walked into his closet. He'd already packed for this day. Apparently, none of the other kids from the academy had been taken out yet, so there was little chance of meeting them again, short of going back as a guest battler. Amazingly, the idea appealed to him. He looked at one of the articles on the home page on his laptop: Pokedex holders gone missing. He read the article and grinned. Some trainer had abducted high profile trainers from around the world. Amazingly, this did not phase him. Facing down some tough trainer was what he was used to. He got dressed into his blue jacket and black pants and sneakers. He looked at his hair in a mirror on the way out, and deemed it neat enough. He knew that his parents would most likely hold a celebration as soon as he walked out the door. He closed the door behind him, and didn't look back.

Michael, Lillie, and Meredith ran joyfully down the streets. The sun was shining, and they were on their way to see the start of the adventure of a lifetime. They ran past houses, and waved hello to their neighbors as they passed. Finally, they arrived at the lab. They slowed to a walk and entered. The inside of the lab was white, and had many aides looking up various facts in encyclopedias. They walked past several shelves until they found a man with gray hair and a lab coat wearing a purple shirt, khaki pants, brown shoes and a brown belt. He turned and said, "Ah, hello there. You must be two of the lucky trainers waiting to receive their first pokemon. I am Professor Samuel Oak," stated the professor, smiling at them. "Ah, Meredith, how are you?" he asked looking at Meredith. She blushed, and then mumbled, "I'm fine, how are you." "I'm fine as well," replied the professor before turning to Michael and Lillie. "Have you decided which pokemon you two would like?" he asked them, and then he pushed a button. Three pokeballs rose out of a machine. Lillie picked first. "I think…" she thought about it quietly, "I choose Bulbasaur." She reached forward and took the Pokeball that Professor oak held out for her to take. She opened the Pokeball and released a green reptilian pokemon with a seed on its back. She bent down and said, "Hey bulbasaur, I'm Lillie, and I'm sure we'll be the best of friends." While Lillie was getting acquainted, Michael stepped forward and said with certainty, "I choose charmander." He took the pokeball and released a red lizard pokemon with a flame on its tail. Then he looked at Meredith, and said, "Since I have a pokemon now, do you wanna battle?" She was about to say, "Yes," when a voice sounded from behind them. "How about I battle you first?"

They turned around and saw Trey striding in. "I'll take Squirtle," he said to the Professor, who had already reached for the only remaining pokeball. He passed it to Trey, who sent out the small turtle pokemon. He grinned in anticipation of the upcoming battle. Michael got behind his charmander and the professor looked on in anticipation. "Charmander," commanded Michael, "use scratch!" "Squirtle, dodge it and use pound," Trey ordered. His pokemon dodged out of the way of Charmander's claws and then landed a hit of its own. "Squirtle, hit it with another pound," stated Trey. Squirtle complied and struck Michael's charmander with yet another pound attack, knocking out Michael's Charmander. Michael recalled Charmander and shot a dirty look at Trey before storming out. Trey allowed himself a small grin. Professor Oak walked up to him as Meredith and Lillie followed Michael out. "My my," he said, "I've never seen such a fantastic battle in my own laboratory before." "Thank you sir," said Trey respectfully. "I believe that I'll see great things from you in the future," the Professor continued, "and before you go, I have something I would like you to have." He held out a red device. "This is a pokedex," he said. "It is an encyclopedia for all of the pokemon you have met. I would like you to do me a favor though." Trey's eyes flashed from the pokedex back up to the Professor's eyes. "It is my dream to see this filled. So far, I have data on many pokemon, but ever since the first round of pokedex holder's disappeared, I have yet to see my dream fulfilled," he said. "I'll do my best professor," stated Trey, taking the pokedex and then turning around and walking out.

 

[kidstaple]

Wow, I'm the first one to reply to such an awesome story?

Awesome!

Well, you really pulled me into the plot of the story... I'm starting to wonder what's going to happen, and that's always a good thing.

Something you need to work on are the following which I'll try to break down for you: First, the chapters need to be a heck of alot longer. This wasn't hardly enough to wet my appetite, and trust me, I have a big apetite!

Second, you need to brake up your paragraphs. When someone different speaks you always start a new paragraph, don't smash them all into one paragraph. When you do this, it takes away from the story and it begins to make things a little confusing.

I think that it might be it for now. I would recommend that you seriously make your chapters longer, otherwise you might lose interest in your readers.

PEACE

P.S. Oh, and check out my Fanfic: 'Bruno's Journey'. If you could stop by and read it and then comment, I would greatly appreciate it! Keep working, and I'll help you promote your story, to get more hits! Thanks!

 

[du1387]

haha, ok. I'm going through the format of the manga. I have lots of chapters instead of fewer long ones. I'll try to break up the paragraphs though, and thanks for the comments.

 

[du1387]

Lillie and Meredith followed an upset Michael out of the lab. Once they had gotten out however, they set about comforting him. "He's already battled before, its not your fault," said Meredith. After about 10 minutes of comforting him, he cheered up marginally, and walked back in after an aide stated that the professor wished to see them. They walked in and the Professor presented them each with a pokedex. After they left, they followed the path to the end of pallet town before they decided on up. Michael and Meredith went one way, and Lillie went another route.

The route to Viridian City was varied, and reasonably short. However, it was not uneventful. Trey made his way through the grassy route, striding with a purpose until he heard a boys voice say, "Hey, get off of me you freaks!"

He ran through some more grass and a few trees before witnessing a trainer being attacked by two trainers. Trey sent out his Squirtle and said, "Back off."

The two freaks that the trainer was talking about were wearing black outfits and matching black hats. One of them sneered and the looked at the other. "We get two water pokemon for the price of one," he said in his gravelly voice. "The boss is going to like this catch though," said the other one in a deep voice. "These pokemon aren't easy to find."

Trey took a defensive stance and said, "Why don't we decide this in a battle?" His Squirtle, which he had nicknamed Shellshocker, stood in front of him with a defiant look upon its face.

The two creeps smiled evilly at each other, and then creep number 1 sent out a Rattatta, while creep number two sent out an Ekans. "Rattatta, use tackle," shouted creep number one.

"Shellshocker, dodge it!" ordered Trey, "and then use bubble." His blue turtle pokemon jumped out of the way of the speedy Rattatta and then let loose a torrent of bubbles which hit both Ekans and Rattatta. Trey looked at the trainers who was cowering in fear against a tree and asked angrilly, "Are you going to help any or no?"

The trainer nodded slowly and pulled out a pokeball. He released from it a strange penguin-like pokemon. "Piplup," he said in a shaky voice, "use water gun." The penguin pokemon released a torrent of water which hit the first creeps rattatta, knocking it out.

Then, the second creep finally took action. "Ekans, use poison sting on that bird," he commanded. The purple snake opened its mouth and unleashed a torrent of poison from its mouth, but missed.

"Shellshocker, hit it with another bubble," said Trey, now confident that victory was assured. Shellshocker unleashed another torrent of bubbles, finishing off the snake pokemon.

The two creeps looked at each other, and then the first one said, "This wasn't supposed to happen." "I thought the rest of team rocket was taking care of all of the tough trainers," said the second. They both turned and ran past the two trainers and through the rest of the route.

Trey turned to the terrified trainer he had just rescued. "What's your name?" he asked.

"J-j-joe," stammered the trainer. "Do you know what they wanted from me?"

"Probably your pokemon," responded Trey, looking at the penguin pokemon who was now playing with Shellshoker. "What kind is it, and where did you get it?"

"It's a piplup," responded Joe, "My mom found it in the back of our house in Sinnoh."

Trey suddenly became more alert. His features became more inquisitive. "Where is Sinnoh?" he asked. He had never heard of Sinnoh before. Nor had he seen or studied about the pokemon called Piplup.

"You have to go across the ocean," responded Joe, calming down a little now. "We have a whole bunch of pokemon there, but I haven't seen any like the ones here."

"Interesting," said Trey to himself. The he said, "Well, I need to get going. I'm planning on making it to Viridian City before nightfall."

"Oh," said Joe, looking crestfallen. Trey noticed this and then thought to himself, 'I really don't need some twerp tagging along beside me. He'll probably ruin my chances at becoming the ultimate trainer. On the other hand, that Piplup of his is something I've never seen before, and I probably have a better knowledge of pokemon than most people in the world.' He debated in his mind for a minute more before saying, "If you want too… I guess you can come with me?"

Joe's features brightened considerably. "Sure," he said. They continued their walk to Viridian without problems. But while they walked, Trey thought about this lastest development. 'Team Rocket is back?' he thought to himself. 'Why? And how did they know that Joe had that Pokemon, Piplup? And why is it that the academy supposedly has the most complete database of pokemon known to mankind, and yet I've never even heard of this pokemon?' He pondered over these things until he reached the Pokemon Center and checked in.

 

[du1387]

So, anyways, I'm just looking for some comments on what people think. Input is welcome. Again, if you want to be a guest trainer, let me know and I'll write you in.

Chapter 3: VS Pidgey

Michael and Meredith walked through Route 1, taking a different way than Trey or Lillie. They walked along the grass, enjoying the scenery until they noticed that the trees were filled with pokemon. Suddenly a small bird pokemon flew down from one of the trees. Michael and Meredith stopped.

"What is it?" she asked looking at the bird's brown and tan plumage.

"I'm not sure," responded Michael, taking out the Pokedex Professor Oak had given him. He opened it, and scanned in the pokemon. "Pidgey," it said in its electronic voice. "The Tiny bird pokemon. A common sight in forests and woods, it flaps its wings at ground level to kick up blinding sand."

"Hm," mused Michael, thinking to himself about expanding his team. He reached in his bag and pulled out a red and white Pokeball. He threw it in the air, and out from it came his Charmander. "Charmander," called Michael, "use ember." Charmander opened its mouth and released a burst of fire.

The Pidgey squawked as it was burnt by the fire. Then it flapped his wings to escape, but Michael was too fast for it. He pulled out another Pokeball and threw it at the Pidgey. The Pidgey disappeared in a burst of red light, and the ball fell to the ground. It shook. Once, twice, three times, before finally holding still.

Michael walked forward and picked up the Pokeball, and released the Pidgey. It turned, confused to face Michael. "Hi Pidgey, I'm your new trainer," he said to it. The Pidgey turned its head slowly before pecking Michael's hand.

Unfortunately, the capture of the wild Pidgey did not go unnoticed by the other wild Pokemon. Other wild Pidgeys and various pokemon that they did not know flew out of the trees and crawled angrily out of the grass, closing in from all sides around the two new trainers.

Michael and Meredith backed up to each other before looking at each other briefly. "Any ideas?" asked Michael. "Yeah," said Meredith looking around before screaming. "Run!"

They ran down the route screaming at the top of their lungs, getting hit by sand that the bird pokemon kicked up. Eventually, they outran most of the pokemon and arrived at the exit of the route while breathing heavily. They walked a little farther before turning a corner and seeing a man with wavy silvery hair, pale skin, and purple robes. He was an unordinary sight to see. He walked past them, but then did a double take, and stopped.

"Ah, you two must be new trainers," he said quietly. Michael and Meredith nodded. The stranger nodded once and then said, "I believe that I will be seeing you again, quite soon." Then the stranger walked off, and left them standing close to the entrance of viridian city.

Over the past few years, Viridian City hadn't changed much. There was still the trainer school, a pokemon center, a Pokemart, a gym, and other various houses belonging to residents. They walked past several buildings before seeing the characteristic red roof belonging to Pokemon Centers, a place for trainers to heal their pokemon and rest.

They walked into the Pokemon center and immediately were greeted by a woman wearing a white dress and a nurses hat on top of her red hair. "Hello there," she said, "I'm Nurse Joy. How can I help you?"

Michael stepped forward, "We're here to heal up our pokemon and then sleep for the rest of the night."

Nurse Joy nodded in understanding, taking the Pokeballs from their hands. She led them down a hall and opened a door. This is the room where you'll be staying. They walked in and were buried in a head of hair as Lillie sprang from one of the beds and hugged them. Nurse Joy laughed. "She arrived here about five minutes ago," she said.

"I have so much to tell you about," she said. They sat down and Lillie began to tell about her trip to Viridian City. "So," she began, "I started walking down the Route when I met some guy named Christopher, and he's a breeder. He helped me catch a pokemon, and he gave me this!" She put her hand in her bag, and pulled out what looked to be an egg.

Michael and Meredith looked at it closely. "Is it an egg?" Meredith asked. Lillie nodded, then she said "He said it would hatch into something not many people have seen."

Michael and Meredith looked confused. "Did he say what?" Michael asked. "No, that's all he said regarding the egg," Lillie said. "So, what happened on your trip?"

They told her about their journey, and then fell asleep quickly.

Meanwhile...

A sinister figure walked down a dark, gloomy hallway preceded by two masked henchmen. The henchmen opened a door, and the figure walked into the room. Inside was an assortment of machines, but also, 9 people. The people, actually teenagers, saw him and struggled to break free of their bonds. They could not however, and it had been this way for quite a few days now.

The figure laughed at their futile attempts and said, "calm yourselves, there is no escape, so why strain your bodies."

The 9 pokedex holders glared at him, but said nothing. They knew that there was no way out. Ever since they had been captured and their pokemon taken, they had almost given up hope.

"You will be pleased to know that your pokemon are indeed serving a higher purpose in this scheme, and you too, could serve a part..." said the figure, pausing and looking each pokedex holder in the eyes, "if you promise loyalty to my cause."

"Never," came the soft voice of a girl in the back of the group. She had been wearing a hat with a pokemon insignia on it, but that had been lost in the struggle to capture her. She had brown hair, and green eyes. Her name was Blue, and she was one of the first pokedex holders. "I will never further your cause. You don't deserve any help at all."

The figure laughed for a long time. After he stopped, he looked at her, and said, "Blue, you never understand do you. This is not about world domination. Its about bringing the ever torrential world together, in peace and harmony."

"Under your rule," Blue spat. "How is that peace and harmony. All it will do is cause a war which will do nothing but hurt innocent people."

The other pokedex holders nodded.

"Hm..." mused the figure. "That may be, but I believe that the ends may justify the means. Oh, and you'll have company in a few days. We are tracking down three trainers in the Orre Region. It seems that they are both slippery characters. But no matter, we will get them." He then stopped, remembering a bit of information that Nascour had delivered to him. "Also, this might interest you. There are apparently new pokedex holders that have been unleashed on the world."

The 9 pokedex holders stood in shock. To their best beliefs, they were the chosen ones, but perhaps, Professor oak had seen what might happen and had sent a rescue party. Perhaps there was a chance to stop the people holding them prisoner. Perhaps... but their train of thought was interrupted by another voice coming from another figure entering the room.

"Have you changed your mind yet?" the second figure asked in her sweetest voice. "No? Oh what a pity. We really don't want to hurt you. All we want to do is to educate the young trainers of tommorrow to create a wonderful world. Is that so bad?"

The dex holders looked at her in stony silence. They had attempted to argue with her, but to no avail. The two figures seemed to be forever stuck in their method of thought.

"Oh well, maybe tommorrow," she said. Then she turned to the first figure and said with a slight smile, "Come along darling, there are plans to be made."

They walked out together, leaving the pokedex holders bound in their prison...

 

[du1387]

Ok, I've updated minor bits in the past two chapters. Tell me what you think. If you have suggestions, lay them on me.

Chapter 4: VS Geodude

In the dead of night, multiple figures approached the Pokemon center where the pokedex holders were sleeping. Following orders from their commander, ten of them burst into the building, setting off the alarms. The noise woke up Trey from his sleep. He looked around. 'What in blazes is going on?' he thought to himself. Then their door burst open, and a man in black with an R logo on his chest burst in being preceded by a boulder type Pokemon. Trey called out his Squirtle and said, "Shellshocker, bubble!"

Shellshocker used bubble, forcing the Team Rocket member and his Pokemon out of the door. Trey jumped out of bed and shoved Joe, waking him up.

Joe yawned sleepily before noticing that an alarm was going off. "Whats going on?" he asked, frightened. Then he noticed the Team Rocket member attempting to get through Shellshockers torrent of bubbles. He called out his Piplup and said, "Piplup, water gun."

The penguin Pokemon opened its beak and sent a torrent of water at the man attempting to get into their room, throwing him against a wall, and knocking him unconscious. He sank to the floor next to his fainted Pokemon.

The two trainers rushed out of the room and down the hall before seeing three trainers battling various Pokemon.

Michael, Lillie, and Meredith had been the first to respond to the alarm and were using their Pokemon to hold off the Team Rocket members, but barely. Michael called out to his Charmander which was currently attempting to faint a cat like Pokemon. "Charmander, use Ember!"

Charmander opened its mouth and released a volley of fire, which scorched the cat Pokemon, but did not faint it.

The Pokemon's trainer then said, "Meowth, hit it with a payday!" The Meowth prepared to fire its attack before being fainted by yet another volley of fire, this time coming from Lillie's Vulpix. She smiled at Michael before returning to her own battle.

Lillie's opponents were a rock Pokemon which was confirmed as a Geodude by her pokedex, a Rattatta, and a Rhyhorn. "Bulbasaur," she called out, "use razor leaf."

Bulbasaur released a mass of leaves from its bulb and sent them flying toward the opposing Pokemon, which were hurt, but not fainted. The three enemy Pokemon began to close in on her, readying their own attacks before being hit by a torrent of bubbles.

Lillie looked shocked and looked to see Trey and his Squirtle, followed closely by another trainer and a strange penguin type Pokemon.

Trey surveyed the situation. The Rockets were pouring in with Pokemon. Unless something was done soon, they would be quickly overwhelmed.

Meanwhile…
Outside, another battler had joined the fray. His name was Chris, and he had helped a young trainer earlier that day that was in that Pokemon Center. He had heard some of the commotion and had ran out of the house he was staying at to find the Pokemon Center surrounded by Team Rocket members. He quickly called out a Pokemon: Wigglytuff. "Wiggly," he stated, "use sing to put those Rocket members to sleep!"

The pink Pokemon skipped happily towards the Rockets, singing its beautiful song. Slowly, the rocket members and their Pokemon began slumping over in drowsiness and falling asleep. When Wigglytuff was a safe distance away, Chris called out another Pokemon: Machop.

He had Machop tie up the Rocket members outside the building while Chris used his Pokegear and phoned the Police, who apparently were on their way. Then he rushed forward. Unfortunately, Wigglytuff's rampage had been interrupted by a Rocket member wielding a Rhyhorn. As soon as he caught up with it, Chris took charge. "Wigglytuff, use water gun!" Wigglytuff opened its mouth and released a jet of water, aiming it at the stone rhino, fainting it.

In the distance, Meredith heard sirens as she commanded a tackle from her eevee on a rattatta coming their way. Apparently, she wasn't the only one, because soon the Rockets were retreating and some were running away entirely. Within only a few moments, the Pokemon center was empty, all except for the five trainers inside, a few fainted Pokemon, and the occasional unconscious Pokemon.

Outside was no different. Once Chris's Machop had tied up most of the Rockets, they returned to the house where he was staying. 'These trainers seem to attract trouble wherever they go. He phoned Professor Oak, and delivered the facts of the evening.

The Professor sighed. He had asked Chris to help guide the new Pokedex holders, and attempt to keep them from harm until they were strong enough to defend themselves from any forces that might wish them harm. Although Chris had performed his job admirably so far, he was worried that one trainer might not be enough, but for now, all Chris had to do was stay quiet, stay hidden, and not attract attention. Whoever was in charge of the kidnappings of the Pokedex holders would not stop there. Most likely, they would continue, and the Professor intended to ensure that there was a hope for all those imprisoned.

"Good job," stated the Professor finally. "But remember what I told you. If anyone thinks that you are helping out the new Pokedex holders, you become a target as well. Be careful with helping out in battle. I understand that this time it was a necessity, but try to let them handle it in the future. They will never grow stronger without a struggle."

Chris agreed, and then hung up the Pokegear. He turned out the light, and then slept.

Far away…

"What!" screeched an outraged voice. "I thought that 30 Rocket members would have been able to defeat them." "Apparently not," stated another voice, calmer, thoughtful. "If we were to release the children on them…" "Absolutely not!" yelled the first voice. "We must remain anonymous. If anyone were to suspect…" He was silenced by a third member of their party. "I do believe that the Rockets did manage to put up a struggle, but perhaps if we handled things with a little more stealth next time," began the third member, "we might see a different outcome."

The third member turned to yet another member who was reading over a report that had been delivered to him moments before the news of the Team Rockets embarrassing defeat at the Viridian Pokemon Center. "What do you have to say about this?" the third member asked the fourth.

The fourth member looked up, blinked, and then said, "be grateful that Agatha or Bruno didn't leave the Kanto Elite 4 post to interfere. If they did, the casualties would have been much worse."

The fourth member spoke in his slow methodical voice. "There is good news in Orre though sir," he said addressing the first member, who perked up at this. "And the news is…" she said impatiently.

"We have tracked down the two trouble makers there, and our production aspect of the plan can soon proceed," stated the fourth simply, although this had a profound impact on the other three members. "Excellent," stated the second member slowly, sinisterly. "Proceed with all resources you may require. But remember, you must not fail. Go there yourself if you have too."

The fourth member nodded. The two trouble makers in Orre were the trainers who had managed to take down Cipher the past two resurrections. He also knew that, if he were to play by the rules of the game, he would have to use the rebuilt Cipher to capture the two trainers. However, if the heads had granted access to all resources, he might not need to go to such elaborate measures.

This game would be interesting if he himself got involved. The fourth member had captured over half of the Pokedex holders on his own, and would not have much of a problem capturing two people who had survived on nothing but luck. After the meeting adjourned, he walked into another conference room and dialed up a number. A man with wavy silvery hair, pale skin, and purple robes appeared on the screen. "Ah, Nascour," greeted the fourth member. "We have been given a go on capturing the two trouble makers. Use all available resources."

Nascour grinned. Any resources ensured a fantastic battle. He bowed to the screen, and said, "It will be done."

 

[CrobatsRock!]

hey this is great! I love your story line. How come you haven't been updating it?

 

[du1387]

Sorry for the lack of updates. I was busy with school and some other stuff, but here's a new chapter. I'm not sure of the name of the hero from XD, so I named him steven. Here's the new chapter, and I already have part of the next on written. I know i don't update it as much as I should, but with school, things are a little hectic. Thanks for the comments.

Chapter 5: VS Dragonite Part I

Far away from Viridian City, in the land of Orre, sat three people. One, a boy in his late teens with silvery blonde hair; the seond, a girl, also in her late teens, with brown hair; and third, a boy of about 13. They sat around a small camp fire, eating small portions of food, carefully listening for sounds.

Wes, the older boy, kept looking around to see any approaching people. Then he thought to himself, 'I'll have to stop by the Outskirt stand tomorrow.' They sat for a while, until Rui heard a russle in the wind.

Her eyes snapped to attention. Silently, she motioned for the others to look around. Michael threw dirt on the fire until it went out.

Wes looked around for people, but saw nothing. Rui on the other hand, saw an eerily familiar black aura on the horizon. She tugged on Wes and Michael's sleeves, and pointed out at the dark shadow approaching from the end of the desert.

Wes pulled some bincculars from his pocket. He looked through them, and saw that the approaching figures were Pokemon. However, as the approached, Wes was horrified to see that the Pokemon that were flying towards them had riders wearing familiar suits.

"It's Cipher!" he exclaimed. They turned around to run only to see three dragonites, all with riders, rapidly approaching. The Dragonites came to a halt in front of them, and the riders jumped off.

They were wearing the typical white male Cipher outfit. "You aren't going anywhere," snarled a heavily muscled peon. "Oh really?" asked Wes, "and how do you plan to stop us?"

"By battling you," said a small, stout Peon.

Each of the peons faced a runaway. Rui pulled out two Pokeballs and sent out her Pokemon: Plusle and Minun. The two Pokemon cheared as they emerged from their Pokeballs in a jet of red light.

The peon facing Rui was average in height and weight. He motioned his Dragonite forward, and then pulled out another Pokemon, and sent out a Gengar.

Rui yelled out to Wes and Michael, saying, "They have Shadow Pokemon!"

Wes faced his poonent, the bulky peon, who motined his Dragonite forward, and sent out a Gengar. Wes pulled two Pokeballs from his belt and sent out his Espeon and Umbreon.

Michael faced the short Peon, who also motioned his Dragonite forward, and then sent out a Glalie. Steven countered by sending out his Jolteon and Houndoom.

Then Michael and Wes heard Rui's exclaimation, and then they braced themselves for a tough battle.

Rui called out to her Pokemon, and said, "Plusle, Minun, use thunder on Dragonite!"

The two Pokemon joined hands and began emitting sparks as the danced around in a circle. Suddenly, twin bolts of thunder emitted from the sky, and struck the shadow dragonite, paralyzing it.

Then the Peon ordered Gengar to use Shadow ball on Plusle, and for his Dragonite to use Hyper Beam on Minun.

Gengar put its hands together, and slowly pulled them apart, revealing a ball of dark energy, which it threw at Plusle.

The ball is straight on, damaging Plusle. Dragonite however, was unable to move due to the paralysis.

Rui then said, "Plusle, use Rain Dance! Minun, used thunder on his Pokemon!"
Plusle's cheeks began to spark as it danced around, calling to the sky, which filled with clouds. Rain began to fall, soaking the Peon's Pokemon. Minun then danced around and a bolt of thunder cam down from the sky and struck the wet Gengar and Dragonite.

Dragonite fell over, unconscious, and Gengar panted, weary of more damage.

The Peon recalled the Dragonite, and sent out a Golem. Then he ordered a Shadow Wave from Gengar.

Gengar was surrounded by an aura of blackness, and then a wave of Shadow energy erupted from its body, hitting the two electric Pokemon.

Plusle and Minun cried out as the wave hit them, and even Rui felt some of the sting form the wave of energy.

Then the Peon grinned and commanded an earthquake from Goldem. The Rock Pokemon sent out a wave of energy, and then the ground underneath Plusle and Minun violently shook before they were launched into the air by emerging rocks. Plusle and Minun fell down to earth, and hit the ground hard, both of them unconscious.

Rui ran to her two fainted Pokemon, and turned to glare at the Cipher member, but was shocked to see that the Gengar had silently approached her. She stared into its eyes, slowly forgetting everything that had just happened

 

[Arceus707]
