Krissy sees the cactus Pokemon leap out of the boulders of the in pain Onix! Krissy gasps a little realizing the reason for the Onix’s rage was the green Pokemon before her being caught between two of it’s boulders. A quick pull out of the PokeDex and a scan tells Krissy that the Pokemon is … Cacnea! Of course the usefull Pocker Professor of sorts has a little more information to give, as Krissy listens to learn a little something about the pokemon before her.

“Cacnea, the Cactus Pokémon. Cacnea lives primarally in dry desert areas, and attacks by swinging its pin covered arms like hammers.”

Krissy looks over Cacnea and see the pins on its body, and realizes the painful things that could come if their not careful. She looks to her Pokemon, and speaks with a warning tone to her voice.

” Guys, let’s just leave him alone and he might run away and we can avoid some pai- Frenchie no! ”

Smoochum’s eyes have hearts in them as she drools and walks towards the Cacnea! Once close enough, Cacnea wildly spins its arms and walks forward into Smoochum, sending her flying back with pins on her head, and more alarming to Smoochum … her hair! The baby Pokemon begins to go into cries, as Cacnea spins its arms and begins to walk more towards Krissy! Cacnea stops in his tracks, lifting its arm up and towards Krissy, then uses Pin Missle, sending its pins flying at Krissy! Krissy quickly jumps to the ground, just dodging the move. The frightened Cacnea gets its other arm up, ready to protect itself more from the strange people and Pokemon around him.

“ I don’t want to fight ‘em … he’s just scared to have been trapped and now to be around all of us … Smoochum try and freeze him nicely so we can leave him be to defrost … ”

Krissy looks to her Smoochum, who is still throwing a tantrum at the fact that pins got stuck in her hair, and sighs. As Cacnea goes to shoot more pins at Krissy on the ground, Meowth crawls out of the basket it was laying in and walks up towards Cacnea, before opens its mouth wide and letting out a SCREECH! Krissy covers her ears, as Cacnea winces at the high pitched squeal! Cacnea shakes it off and jumps high in air with its arm ready to strike it’s pins into Meowth! Meowth quickly uses Feint Attack, as the Scratch Cat Pokemon disappears in a flash and appears up and behind Cacnea! Cacnea notices just at the moment when Meowth uses Fury Swipes into Cacnea’s back, sending the Cactus Pokemon down onto the ground!

“ G-Great job Meowth! Can you freeze him? ”

Mewoth thinks, realizing it can’t quite freeze the Pokemon, but it remembers a certain move that it’s old leader knew … Hypnosis! Meowth concentrates, as Cacnea tries to pry itself from the ground, but its pins are stuck a bit. Cacnea pries itself free and spins its arms wildly and heads towards Mewoth … as Mewoth continues to concentrate. Just before Cacnea connects, Meowth’s charm lights up and begins to have a spinning design to it, as Hypnosis is working! Cacnea falls backwards asleep, as Flint runs over and tosses a Pokeball, catching the Green Cactus Pokemon!

“ Thank you! For everything … for babysitting, and for helping Onix out! … you and Meowth have a strong bond despite your short time together … and I think you should have this Pokemon, as I know you can raise it well. ”

Krissy smiles, putting her hand out as Flint gives her the Pokemon.

“ You said you were a Coordinator … well, there is a Contest in Cerulean City really soon! ”

Krissy smiled, as Flint packed some food from his house as a nice goodbye package, as Krissy heads off, headed towards her first contest!
