Gold had to spend yet another night at the Pokemon Center so his clothes got dry again. It was a small price to pay as he looked at the Cascade Badge, his second gym badge. It had turned out that Misty had never given him her phone number, but he soon got over that as he looked at the badge.
The next morning, Gold and Bret were on the road again towards Viridian City, home of the Thunder Badge. Gold felt pretty confident that he got get it easily if he tried hard enough. But first they had to get through this obstacle.
Gold and Bret walked for a little while seeing nothing more than a few wild pokemon. Gold sighed, he was hoping for a more adventurous obstacle. Then he got his wish. As Gold and Bret were walking, they heard multiple screams. Gold decided to investigate and ran towards the voices.
Two little kids were standing alone with a plant like pokemon. The pokemon was growling and attempting to attack the little kids. Gold ran over there just in time to see what was about to happen.
"No way, it's a Bulbasaur!" he exclaimed cheerfully. The kids and Bret looked at him increduosly as he was cheerfully watching the pokemon. "I have always wanted one of these pokemon!" he continued. Bulbasaur turned around to look at the ridiculous trainer.
Gold stared back at the pokemon. He knew a pokemon with a tough attitude was exactly what he needed on his team. He threw a pokeball out on the field. "Go, Nidorino!" he shouted. The Nidorino appeared on the field.
Bulbasaur came charging first with a tackle attack. Nidorino jumped out of the way just in time. "Good, Nidorino, now use peck!" Nidorino dug his teeth straight into Bulbasaur's bulb making it cry out and fall backwards. Bulbasaur tried to get up, but was too weak.
"Now, Nidorino, use double kick!" Gold shouted. Nidorino leaped in the air and extented his legs out. Then, when he was close enough, he slammed his feet straight into Bulbasaur. Bulbasaur collapsed on the ground.
"Good job!" shouted Gold. He reached for a pokeball. "Now I'll just-" Gold cut off his sentence when he looked up at Bulbasaur. It was gasping for air as it tried to stand up. It's back left leg was swollen up from Nidorino's attack. Gold had gone too far. Soon the bulbasaur had mustered up enough strength to run into the woods. Gold couldn't believe what he just did. "Bulbasaur..." he muttered.
The two kids left, glaring at Gold before they did. Bret walked up to Gold. "Hey, it's alright. Let's just find another bulbasaur," he said, trying to cheer Gold up.
Gold looked down at his feet. "No..." he said. He looked up at Bret. "I hurt that pokemon and I need to make it right. I have to find it and apologize."
Bret smiled. "Okay, maybe I can help," he said. Bret pulled out a pokeball and threw it in the air. "Go Zubat!" he shouted. His bat-like pokemon appeared. "Zubat, use your supersonic and try to find a bulbasaur," he ordered. Zubat flew off.
Gold was very impressed by Bret's thinking. He pulled out his own pokeball. "Pidgeotto, help Zubat!" he shouted as he threw his own pokeball in the air. His bird pokemon appeared and flew off with Zubat.

Gold and Bret searched for hours and had no luck finding the injured bulbasaur. "Let's just go," said Bret.
"No!" Gold responded angrily. "What do I look like as a Pokemon Trainer if I hurt a pokemon and just walk off!"
"Still better than most."
Gold glared at Bret angrily for his immaturity. Seconds later though, he heard the noise of a pokemon: Pidgeotto. Pidgeotto flew down towards her master.
"Pidgeotto, did you find Bulbasaur?" Gold asked. The pokemon nodded and began to fly off. Gold rushed after her and Zubat.
A few minutes later, Gold saw Bulbasaur just a distance away. It was attempting to rest near a tree. "Bulbasaur!" shouted Gold. The pokemon shot its head up and looked angrily at Gold. Gold tried to get the pokemon and touch it but it just backed up making noises at Gold.
"Please Bulbasaur, you're really hurt and I'm just trying to take care of you. I'm really sorry that I hurt you," said Gold desperately. Bulbasaur continued the noises for a few more moments, but then collapsed out of exhaustion. Gold took this oppurtunity to take care of it.
Gold placed Bulbasaur in his lap and sprayed some potion on the injured leg. He massaged its bulb afterwards. Soon it got late, and Bret set up his bed and went to sleep, but Gold continued to care for Bulbasaur. It once woke up, but felt secure enough to fall back asleep.
Gold woke up to find that it was morning. He was surprised that he fell asleep without knowing. He looked up and saw Bulbasaur standing there waiting for him to wake up. It smiled happily at him when he looked at it.
"Bulbasaur, you're alright!" shouted Gold. The pokemon responded joyuosly and leaped into his arms. Gold put the pokemon down. "Well, I guess it is time for you to go home now," said Gold. The pokemon looked at him confused. Gold looked at it back. "Look, I don't deserve to have a pokemon as great as you, not after what I've done."
"Bulba bulba," said the pokemon. Gold bent down and it leaped into his arms again. The pokemon had obviosly forgiven him. Gold couldn't help but smile.
"Do you want to go with me that bad?" Gold asked laughing. "Fine then Bulbasaur, you're my new pokemon!" Gold took out a pokeball and clicked it open. Bulbasaur was sucked inside it. The ball wiggled for a few times before it finally stopped. Gold put the ball back in his pocket proudly.
Gold and Bret picked up their stuff and continued down the road towards Vermillion City and Gold's third badge.
