Viridian Forest

As JaK & Sammie trudge along in the forest with their starters following behind them. They can't help but notice that..Well, they're LOST!

"Hmm, maybe we should've taken a right turn at that tree, instead of hanging a left."

Sammie would just fold her arms and roll her eyes, as JaK tried to ponder the direction they should head in. When all of a sudden, Treecko started to growl at a bush.

"Huh, what's wrong Treecko?"

The bush would then start to rustle and out of it, would pop none other than a...

"Caterpie, The Worm Pokemon. It will shed its skin many times before finally cocooning itself in thick silk. While some Trainers are disgusted by the idea of Bug-type Pokémon, they are ideal targets for new Trainers as they are fairly weak in the wild and evolve into their final forms at a low level."

"It's Perfect! I gotta catch it!"

JaK would then enlarge a pokeball and get ready to throw it at the wild Caterpie, the worm eating it's weight in sunflower seeds. When Treecko would suddenly spring into action, pounding the Caterpie out of the way with it's tail and beginning to devour the seeds it was snacking on. Caterpie rolling back, would show a look of aggression on it's face, it's food being eaten by the gecko like pokemon and quickly charging forward would tackle down Treecko. Who then stands up and looks at Caterpie angrily itself, it's moutgh full of the stolen seeds.

"That's the way to do it Treecko, now give it a quick attack!"

But Treecko would just ignore it's trainer's command, using the seeds in it's mouth as weapons as it fires off a round of glowing green pellets at the Caterpie. All of them hitting the mark and causing the Caterpie to go running off in search of food elsewhere. JaK with a look of astonishment on his face, as he watched his pokemon put it's hands on it's hips victoriously. Not due to the fact that the pokemon got away, but really because he didn't have a clue as to what Treecko just did...

"Whoa, what attack was that?"

"Good idea"

JaK opens back up his Pokedex, which begins to spit out knowledge of the attack having heard the question...

"Bullet Seed is a damage-dealing Grass-type move where the user forcefully shoots seeds at the foe. Two to five seeds are shot in rapid succession."

"Bullet Seed huh, well way to go treecko. We officially won our first battle."

"Pssh, you call battling a wild Pokemon a battle. If that's what you think, then you truly are a novice trainer."



Suddenly from out the bushes would come a boy dressed in a samurai costume, sporting a bug catching net and a sword.

"Hey, you take that back. I'm no novice!"

"So you let your woman speak for you, not only are you a novice, but a coward to!"

"What, ok that's it pal! Come on Treecko, were gonna teach this guy a lesson."

Treecko would again ignore JaK, still eating his fill of seeds.

"Treecko, come on. Would you quit eating, for 5 seconds and help me out here?"

"So it's a battle you want eh, well then. It's a battle you shall have. Go Pinsir!"



Samurai would throw forward a pokeball, which in a flash of light would reveal a very large horned pokemon. The Pinsir approaching Treecko, while opening and unopening it's horns. Treecko not really paying it any mind as it eats it's food.

"No, we can do this. Now come on Treecko, please listen to me!"

But Treecko refused, as it struggled back up to it's feet and unleashed a bullet seed onslaught on it's foe.

"Pinsir harden and then follow it up with a gullotine attack!"

Pinsir's outer shell would crackle as the seeds bounced off it like bullets to pavement. The bug pokemon sprinting through the cover fire and grabbing onto Treecko with both it's horns, really applying the pressure now.

"Treecko, you HAVE to listen to me or were gonna lose!"

Treecko just shook it's head, it's mouth widening as the hold became tighter.

"Shame it has to end this way, vital throw!"

Pinsir would then exclaim it's name as it jumped up into the air, Treecko still in it's grip and slammed it's opponent down. Then after the impact it finally releases the hold on it, Treecko could be seen with swirls in it's eyes. JaK regretfully returning his pokemon.

"Awww, Treecko....No."

Exz has a smile on his face as he walks inside this forest. He got lucky today because he's just freely obtained a map and a few pokeballs.

"Being a good guy is really great Exz."

He said to himself as he's walking. Then all of a sudden, he heard a clamor. Exz then stops walking...to contribute silence since walking over the grassy ground makes noise. He hears the clamor again...a clamor that manifests torment, pain, despair, and agony. He stays in his place...trying to discern where the screaming is coming from.

"It sounds terrible. I gotta see the source of it soon before it's too late."

Exz starts to walk towards the direction where he hears the screaming. And as he gets closer...he gradually finds out more information. Like...he found out that it's a pokecry, and two, he started to hear another sound...a sound that sounds an electricity.

"-SIGH- maybe you're right."

It's getting late now, JaK & Sammie decide to set up camp for tonight and continue onwards in the morning.

JaK thought about letting out Treecko, but then decided against it. Making a fire, using a few twigs and stones as so they could stay warm. Though soon after the fire was made, it was like Treecko could sense the heat and popped out of it's ball next to the crackling flames. Curling up into a ball and laying down, not really acting as if it knew it's trainer existed.

"What are you to hurt Shinx like that?"

"What am I? I am a TRAINER! And that Shinx is mine, so I think the question should be...who are you to get in my own business?!"

"Who am I? I am Exz, a REAL trainer! Yes...I do not consider you as a trainer at all because a trainer cooperates and understands his pokemons. And a real trainer trains his or her pokemons in a real trainer way. And it's sad to say that you do not have at least one of the requirements."

"How dare you to insult me! You don't know anything at--"

"I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING?! Well I saw every thing you were doing to the poor Shinx! You are tormenting it because of its limitations. You're training it in a cruel and wrong manner."

"Well it's so annoying already! Do not tell me you won't be mad too if your pokemon does not--"

"YES I WILL NOT BE MAD! Why? Because I am a REAL trainer. I studied well in the pokemon Academy and I know how to cultivate a pokemon's abilities in a correct way."

"Arghh...you're getting on my nerves already! How about we just battle huh? And let's see if your words are really right. Come on buddy Elekid, let's beat this preachy guy."

Elekid steps forward, manifesting an evil smirk.

"Okay, let's have a deal. If I win, I will take Shinx with me--"

"BUT IF I WIN, you'll get your ass out of our sights!"

Exz simply nods with a serious face, before throwing out the pokeball of his starter. The pokeball breaks in the air, releasing a white light down to the ground that forms into Charmander. Charmander gets into a fighting position, with a confident smile.

"Elekid, finish this already with Thunderbolt!"

Elekid spins both of his arms before releasing a bolt of yellow lightning from his horns at Charmander.

"Dodge it with dig."

Charmander quickly digs a hole in the ground using his claws, and gets in there, causing the Thunderbolt to miss.

"Get near him and crash his head with Thunderpunch!"

Elekid runs at the hole made by Charmander, and peeks in with his fist already surging with electricity, ready to land the attack. But he finds out that he's not there anymore.

"Ember!"

Charmander then gets out from the ground, on the other side, away from his old spot. Elekid turns around, and sees a barrage of fireballs coming at him.

"OH NO!"

Elekid gets raped by the blazing fireballs, falling down with burns on his body.

"Great job Charmander! I think we got him there."

"No...not yet!"

Elekid is seen standing up already, panting heavily. He looks at the flame lizard pokemon with eyes full of vengeance.

"Thunderpunch, again!"

Elekid yells his name as his right fist gets shrouded by electricity. Then he runs at Charmander, ready to pound the target.

"Dodge it Charmander."

Charmander waits for more seconds, before jumping to his left, to evade the electrifying fist. But the already close Elekid grabs Charmander by his tail using the other free hand and swings him right towards the fist of Elekid. BAM! It hits! Charmander has just received a thunderous punch right on his abdomen. Charmander goes skidding away, back to Exz's side. Exz kneels down over him and checks him...hoping that he's alright.

"Hmph, I told you we'll win."

But then, after a few more seconds, Charmander starts making his way back standing up, still shaking due to the effects of the dreadful Thunderpunch attack.

"Don't stop attacking Elekid, come on!"

There's no command received from the trainer, but Elekid decides for himself to use Thunderpunch again. But this time...Elekid envelopes both of his fists by electricity, while laughing evilly. The Electric pokemon then screams his name before running at the still-dazed Charmander. Exz is gritting his teeth as he sees this, trying to think of a move to get Charmander out of those baneful fists.

"Hahahah, prepare to leave now my friend!"

A slow motion effect starts to affect the whole scene. Elekid swings his left fist first...but OH! Charmander simply bends back, barely avoiding the left fist. Elekid gets shocked...and the electricity on the left fist has now vanished. But there's still one threat for Charmander, and there's still one hope for Elekid. He then proceeds to swing his right and last one, but Charmander swiftly and nicely ducks, again...ceasing the last hope of Elekid. The slow motion effect stops...and Elekid is seen dazed by the swift evades of Charmander.

"...WHAT?! That's impossible."

"It is...because it happened. Now use Scratch."

Charmander quickly moves, surprising the shocked Elekid by scratching his whole face with those glistening little yet sharp claws. Elekid stumbles backwards and falls on one knee...holding his face in big agony.

"Move Elekid! MOVE!"

"Finish with him Ember."

Charmander inhales before unleashing another array of numberless fireballs from his mouth and his body. The stunned and hurt Elekid gets showered by the painful fireballs, causing the arrogant Elekid to fall down completely and faint.
