Previous ChapterNext Chapter

After a couple of minutes of being unconscious, Zealth started to wake up slowly, he was feeling good, a little sore in the back but he didn't feel like he was beaten that bad just minutes ago, he started to stand and moved into a comfortable position, and looked to Mewtwo. -"H-how...? how am i awake and why anything hurts anymore?" He tilted his head to the side while looking at the Legendary.

"When you fainted, i just healed you. You gave a good battle considering that you aren't a Legendary, but you cant touch me whit simple physical attacks, i know what you tried to do, it was a good strategy, if i wheren't who i am, i dont think i whould be able to block your attacks that easily, im sorry to say this but i was playing whit you for a while... I get bored here sometimes and i wanted to have a little fun, hope you dont mind, also you have to learn your place, is not a easy thing to beat a legendary, maybe if you join a trainer and get to train whit him and beat the Leage you will get stronger enough to do it, maybe". At that the Dragon type's face flushed whit embarrassment and a little annoyance.

"Well i dont want to be a pet to anyone! I like being free and just follow my own rules, i dont want to be part of a human's team. I want to find a place where i dont have to worry about being captured by trainers and used as a tool!" he yelled angrily, losting his temper. Mewtwo glared at him, but then his gaze softened and he smiled.
He paused realizing he had just yelled at a Legendary who could tear him in two whit just little effort.

"Im sorry! i didn't meant to snap at you, i better be going now... And thanks for give me a chance to battle you mister Mewtwo, and thanks for healing me afterwards, if you weren't kind enough to do it, i whould have died here, you where trowing me around like a ragdoll!" Zealth laughed, already feeling a lot better. He nodded his head to the Legendary and exited the cave.

'I will miss that guy, i never knew anyone that strong, and he was kind enough to even heal me after that fight!' he thought to himself, -'but... maybe i should get to town and figure out in wich direction is Sinnoh...'

So he flew above the river and the forest and headed to Cerulean City, he landed outside the city and walked in, there where a lot of humans staring at him, he just ignored them and keep going, he actually liked human citys, they where a real cool place to be, there was a lot to see, and it really felt like he wanted to have some of the stuff that humans selled in the stores, but he knew that he needed money, so he just keep going.

Some people was staring at him whit fear, like expecting him to jump and attack them, others watched him pass curiously, he waved a claw and smiled to some humans and pokemons, most of the pokemons in the city where kids, mostly Water types, he didnt smell anything like a Dragon type close, he could smell some Ghost types in the city, most ghost lived near towns, in abandoned houses or ancient ruins.

After walking for a while longer heard from some humans talk about battling a gym leader in that city, he knew that in some towns there was a pokemon gym, a place where trainers from that region went to get a badge, when they get the 6 badges, they could finally challenge the Pokemon Leage, and if they suceeded they could go for the Champion title, fight and win against the Elite 4 and the Champion him/herself, and the battles went whitout rest, that means they couldn't get to a Pokemon Center after each battle, but they where allowed to heal their pokemon whit Full Restore or some other Potions and recover their energy.

'May as well challenge the gym leader and have some fun while im here, thanks to Mewtwo's Heal Puse i feel really powerful and rested.' He thougth, however, the problem was... he didn't know if he could simply go to the gym and challenge the trainers and the gym leader by himself, he maybe... needed a trainer, a temporary one, and he didn't speak human!

He needed a way to comunicate whit some trainer that wanted to challenge the gym leader.

'So... if i want to speak whit a human... humans can read and write, i can only read because dad taught me, wait... some pokemons can directly speak to humans whit a mind link, Psychic type pokemons can do that, and some Sinister and Ghost, but where i can find some who want to help me? i could ask Mewtwo, but i dont want to bother him whit my problems anymore, soo im going search for a psychic pokemon~'.
He started to hum a song in his head hile he was walking, sniffing the air for a Psychic type, it didn't take long for him to find what he was looking for, one of the trainers who wanted to win the gym badge have a Kirlia, a female Kirlia who was really cute, he tried sound casual. -

"Hey, hello miss, my name is Zealth, i want to ask you something, if you don't mind of course..."

She looked at him and smiled.

"Hello Zealth, nice to meet you, my name is Lilly". She looked at him in the eyes and he blushed, and shook his head. She chuckled softly and asked "what is that you need Zealth? what can i do for you?"

"I need a way to speak whit your trainer, i want to be a temporary part of your team, your trainer want to beat the city gym right? i want it too, i mean, at least fight some of the battles if thats okay whit her and all of her team, including you, can you please tell her that?" She nodded

Her trainer noticed Lilly wasn't at her side and started searching for her pokemon, when she saw the Kirlia in front of a fully grown Garchomp her eyes widened and she gasped in alarm, but she calmed herself, maybe they were just talking, she couldn't just panick for that, she calmed herself and went to where both pokemon where talking, Zealth looked at her and smiled, waving a claw in a friendly way, trying to look friendly, as friendly as a dragon could look, she calmed and Lilly opened a mental link whit her, she could feel the calmness and peace in Lilly's mind, so she relaxed, and Lilly said

'Dont worry, he is Zealth, he wanted to join our team to help us win the Gym Leader Misty, he wanted me to tell you that its just temporary he is a nice pokemon, and also really powerful, i will add him to our conversation, let me ask him if i can.'

'Ok, i'll wait'

"Hey Zealth, wanna join us in a mental link so you can explian Mary what you want to do? I have to link you, so please relax and don't fight it"

"Thanks you Lilly, I will let you link us for a talk".
The Kirlia's started glowing whit a really soft pink aura and Zealth feel the Psychic energy trying to link whit his mind, he didn't fight it and he started to feel the trainer and the pokemon feelings, Lilly was calm and sure, while Mary was a little nervous bit she didn't really feel scared, so he spoke mentally.

'Hello? Can both of you hear and understand me?'

'Hi... I can understand you, your name is Zealth right? My Name is Mary as you sure already know. Lilly sure hears you right?' Lilly nodded and smiled, not wanting to interrupt the conversation.

'Hey Mary it's nice to meet you' He smiled at her. 'Yes my name is Zealth, I wanted to talk about something, I need a favor from you, I want to beat a Pokemon Gym, but I know it isn't possible to challenge the gym if you aren't a trainer, and I don't really am one, I wanted to join you as your pokemon until we win the gym and then I'll leave you and be on my way, I don't like being a trainer's Pokemon and I absolutely hate pokeballs, so I will remain at your side all the time and when it's my time to fight, you simply tell me, so...' He smiled and winked to her, and that made her laugh. 'What do you say, want to be my teammate on this?'

'I... Yes, I cannot let a chance like this to waste, it's actually my first gym badge, if we make it, and if you join us, we have a chance, a really good chance to win! I really don't understand why you don't want to be in a pokeball, but I'm not gonna worry about that If you like it that way, but... I really don't have an idea of what you can do... You need to tell me what moves you know so I can tell you what to do, is not that I don't trust your judgement, but one rule of the gym battle league is that you must say what attack your Pokemon gonna use before attacking, and that's the only thing we need and we're all set! Yay we gonna win our first badge~'

'Thank you, this is fucking awesome! I never had a battle against a gym trainer before, I can tell you all the moves I know, so... You know a lot about Pokemon moves right?' Mary nodded.

'Actually I want to become a Pokemon Professor when I grow up, I know a lot about Pokemon moves, so don't worry, just tell me what you know and I'll understand mister Zealth' She grinned at the dragon.

'I know you will become a great Pokemon Professor Mary, and you will get the badge of this gym' He smiled warmly 'I know a lot of moves really, I always since I was a Gible, I practiced a lot whit my friends, we fought everyday to get stronger and learn moves, I have a lot of friends, of many species, and my dad taught me really good about the world I live in, about the humans, he teaches me how to read, and mom taught me about pokemon moves, also my friends taught me his moves, I know Crunch, Dig, Earthquake, Dragon claw, Outrage, Flamethrower, Fire spin, Fire, Thunder and Poison Fang, sandstorm, Dragon Pulse, Extreme speed, double team and air slash that's all I remember at the moment, I used to know more but I didn't use them now. What do you think?' Zealth looked at her in the eyes and tilted his head waiting for her answer.

'Whoa! You a LOT of attacks, you really are a high level and really really powerful pokemon! I mean, you even could beat all the gym trainers alone! You are awesome, and you are the nicest Dragon type I know, actually you are the only I have ever met in real life'

He blushed a little, he had never been told he was awesome and strong for other more than his mother, and a few friends who he has beaten before, years ago. He just liked to fight and always was training. He smiled at her and nuzzled her in the arm, she hesitated but relaxed and started petting his head, he smiled and closed his eyes, it was the first time he was petted in the head and humans hand where really soft...

'Heh... Feels nice but you better find a place to rest, it's really late in the night and also people are staring at us...' She realized that he was right and blushed while he was chuckling. 'Dont worry Mary, I'll be going to sleep in the forest, tomorrow morning we meet right in this place and then we go to the gym to get your badge, I promise you, we will win!'

'Hey wait! Don't go, you can come whit us, you can come to my house and sleep in the guests room, it's a not really far away and my parents gonna like you' She grinned and placed an arm around his back 'i promise you, I will make you feel part of the family, I owe you at least that' She smiled warmly.

'Well really thank you for this, never had I slipped in a human bed, you are really nice... You don't try to make me join your team right?' He raised an eyebrow suspiciously, then started laughing and a little after she joined.

The 3 of them reached the house and Mary entered and talked whit her parents, she convinced them of letting the Dragon type sleep in the guest room, she told them everything and they hesitated, but give way and accepted Zealth into the house, they had dinner, a delicious Tauro steak, and potato salad, both things the dragon eaten whit gusto, but he hesitated at the dessert, it was a giant bowl of ice cream, he... Well he didn't mind the flavor, it tasted delicious, but he didn't like cold and frozen things, so he used a Fire fang and started eating, the ice cream instantly melting in his jaws. Once they all had eaten, they headed to sleep, Zealth was shown his room and he bowed his head in respect at Mary's mom, Alice.

The bed was really comfy and he drifted to sleep in minutes, he dreamed of a Legendary, Mewtwo, and the battle they had, if it could count as a battle, he didn't think so... He really didn't feel bad for losing, he should have know better, a Legendary, it's a big deal, he knew his strength, he was powerful but what he could do if he was lifted from his tail like a fished would do to a Magikarp? Well, at least he was fine, the only thing Mewtwo had broken was his pride, and one or two ribs maybe, but he healed him afterwards! He then dreamed of the day's events, walking in town and meeting Lilly and Mary, and the promise he made to her, they'll gonna beat the gym leader Misty and win the badge!

He waken up whit the sunrise, well not really, it was 9 am and he was really hungry, he didn't remember a more pleasant night of sleep, humans bed where awesome! -'Hmm I guess I overslept, better get to clean up and search for breakfast...' He jump from the bed and went outside of the room, when he reached the kitchen, they where all already having breakfast, he told Lilly to tell Mary he was going to clean up in the river and was back in 10min, she told him he could get some breakfast there if he wanted, he refused politely, waved goodbye and went outside, once in a clear space he started to run and gain speed and he flied to the river, it was 3 miles from there, but he could fly almost to the speed of sound, in half a minute he landed and started to clean himself, then fished a couple of Magikarp, he proceeded to hold them in his claws and cook them whit a really low power Flamethrower, just low enough to not incinerate, obviously he ended the other pokemon's life first whit a claw in their brain trough their eyes, he didn't make any prey suffer, it doesn't matter if it was sentient or not. He eated the flesh enjoying the taste, he really liked cooked Magikarp!

Once finished breakfast, he returned to Mary's house and landed close to the door.

"I'm back, Lilly when you two are ready lets go and win that badge!" He said cheerfully "I'm gonna be waiting here, dont worry and take your time"

"Actually we almost finish eating breakfast, I see you are really excited about this battle, so am I" She smiled at him and he smiled back, he was excited indeed, it was their first gym battle after all, he didn't know what he was going after. 'Hey Zealth I didn't ask you, you know what we're gonna be against today right?' She spoke in his mind.

'Actually I have no idea, anyone told me anything, I just heard from some humans that there was a Gym Leader named Misty...'
Mary, hearing him in her head and having finished her breakfast, said goodbye to her parents and walked to the pair

'Hello Zealth, good morning, how did you sleep last night?'

'Hi Mary, really thank you for the bed and everything, humans bed are really comfortable, best sleep I ever had in a long time, and how are you? Did you sleep well yourself?'

'Oh is no problem! It's the less I can do, I'm gonna be sincere about this, I didn't really slept that much, I'm nervous about the battle, I know it's silly... It's... It's just that I never fight for a gym badge and everyone says Misty has powerful Pokemon and I...' She got close and hugged both of them, Who hugged her back and smiled. 'You are the only I can count on, It doesn't matter if we win or lose, I love you both, we are a team now' Tears streamed down her face while she hugged the two pokemon, Zealth started to feel strange, he could feel the girl's feelings, and the Pokemon girl's feelings too, and he reassured them whit his calmness and they both smiled at him 'thanks Zealth, you always are calm and always care about your friends, cuz we are friends now right?' He nodded, she felt a lot better and excused herself, and went whit Lilly to wash her face, then the three of them went walking and in the way to the gym, the girls explained to the dragon what they were against, he was reassuring them about the battle, he know what to do in any situation, even if the rival Pokemon had ice attacks, he could evade at incredible speeds.

"Well... We're here!" Mary said cheerfully. "We should train whit some of the gym trainers and then we will be able to challenge Misty, First battle is going to fight Lilly, are you ready sweetheart? I know you can do it! Just relax and concentrate, you'll gonna do fine"

They entered the gym and there was a guy who told them the rules, and eyed suspiciously at Zealth, but didn't say anything, they had to fight 2 trainers and then they could fight against Misty, the Gym Leader.

First it was turn of the Kirlia to give her best in battle, the other trainer send out a Squirtle. -"Squirtle use water gun!" The trainer, who was a kid said, Squirtle shot a short beam of water at Lilly.

"Lilly quick! Use Teleport and when you are behind him use thunderbolt." The Kirlia did as she was told and the Squirtle's water gun hit the ground and did nothing, he was confused, where was that Kirlia? He heard something behind him, then he realized what had happened, she had teleported, he tried to move to the side but it was too late, the thunderbolt attack hit him in the arm and send him flying a couple of feet back, he screamed in pain, being weak against electric attacks, and Lilly's special attack made her hit even harder whit that type of attack, the poor Squirtle tried to get up, only managed to fall backwards, he was out.

"Squirtle cannot keep fighting, And the winner is Mary!" The referi announced and Mary and Lilly cheered and hugged eachother, Zealth was watching from a dark corner of the room, and smiled at them, he wanted to surprise the gym leader when it was his turn to get in the battle.

"Well done miss Mary, your Kirlia the strongest Pokemon I ever saw! Eh... Well Misty's Pokemon are stronger I believe, good luck! I better get Squirtle to a Pokemon Center, You need to beat one more trainer and then Misty, bye!"

"Good bye and take care of Squirtle, Lilly say she is sorry about that!" She waved and the kid went out.

"Now time to the next trainer, are you ready Lilly?" The psychic type nodded and smiled, she wasn't even tired, this was just getting started.

A old woman entered the ring, she greeted Mary and the referi announced the start of the fight -"Poochyena go!" The Pokemon went out whit a red flash of light from the pokeball and growled -"you gonna lose this little fairy! You have no chance" The Dark type glared at the Kirlia

"We're about to find out if you're right" She smiled and relaxed to increase her psychic powers.

"Kirlia energy ball!" Mary ordered and a green sphere of light and energy started to form in the fairy type's chest, and she launched it where the Poochyena was standing.

"Poochyena dodge and use tackle!" He started to run to her.

"Lilly watch out he is gonna hit you from behind! Lilly didn't hesitated and teleported to the side. "Excellent now use Disarming Voice!" The Kirlia started to sing softly and her eyes started to glow pink, and Poochyena fell to the floor trying to cover his ears whit his paws, and crying out in pain, the Fairy type move hurting him, he was unable to move now.

"No! Poochyena get away from there! Move!" His trainer told him, but it as too late...

Mary smirked "Lilly, use Draining Kiss" The psychic/fairy got close to the Dark type and kissed him in the nose, his face went pale, and then he fainted, all his energy drained.

"Poochyena cant keep fighting, the winner is Mary and her Pokemon Lilly!" The referi announced again, somewhat cheerfully.

Mary was really happy now, she congratulated her Pokemon and thanked the other woman for the awesome fight her Poochyena gave them, the. Said goodbye and told the referi she was ready to challenge the Gym Leader.

Misty was having a peaceful day, well actually she was bore to death, anyone had come to challenge her in almost a week, they needed to beat the 2 gym trainers to be able yo challenge her, and not everyone could do that, but today was different, she was called to the gym to battle a girl who has beaten the 2 gym trainers, and she wanted to get the Cascade badge, so she was excited to finally have a Pokemon battle, she arrived to the gym and greeted the trainer who wanted to challenge her. -"Hello, my name is Misty and I'm the Gym Leader, you want to challenge me for the Cascade badge right?" Mary nodded.

"Hi Misty, it's nice to meet you, im Mary, and my friend here is Lilly, i have 1 pokemon, its my first badge by the way, but i have a new friend you see... now my team has 2 pokemons, he told me he wanted to battle you by himself, but the Gym rules say that a trainer must challenge the Gym lider, not a wild pokemon, so he asked me to tell you this, he just want to try new challenges, and he also wanted to help me win the Cascade badge, so he is temporary part of the team" She looked back to where Zealth was standing in the shadows, and called for him mentally. 'Hey its time, please come and say hello to the Gym Leader Misty!'

He smiled and walked to her side slowly but surely. -'Im ready, and contragulations to you and Lilly for the last 2 battles, you are a really awesome team you know?' She blushed but laughed and stroked his back whit her hand.

'We are a good team too, and we gonna give our best!' She looked at him whit hope, she had a chance and she was going to prove Misty she deserved the badge.

Misty gasped at the sight, -'A fully grown Dragon type??!!! She stared at Zealth for minutes, unable to say something, she was scared, this pokemon looked really powerful, but it was not her place to question that, she had to accept and give her best, it was going to be an interesting battle....' She thought to herself,

"W-well, i can give you a regular battle, one against one, or a double battle, if you want to use 2 pokemons, what you like more" She hesitated, this was a Ground and Dragon type if she was right. "The battle is going to be in the pool right here, this Gym has a pool for the Water pokemon to battle, its made like a river, so if your pokemon dont like water, they can stay in the ground, or they can dig too, its half dirt and half water arena. You are okay whit that?" Misty asked her, she calmed herself, this was a ground type right? all her pokemons where water type, its gonna be an easy match, she smiled, and waited for the trainer's answer.

"Yes i guess its okay, we are ready, finally! im really excited about this, lets start when you are ready" She was really looking forward to see Zealth fight Misty's pokemons. "Im going to use only one pokemon for this battle" Mary said. "You should use 2 or 3 if you want, i guess its fair, i dont really know how strong is Zealth, but he looks like he could give a really good fight"

"I-i cant disagree whit that, he sure looks strong... Im gonna use 3 pokemon if thats okay" She smiled and made a gesture to the referi.

"Mary versus Misty, you can start now!" The referi announced.

"Goldeen go!" Misty called and the pokemon went in the water of the arena whit a red flash, Zealth was already in position in the ground, waiting. "Goldeen use Water Pulse!" The water type nodded and fired a circular stream of water from his mouth to the Garchomp.

"Zealth, use Dragon Pulse now!" Mary yelled, worried, but Zealth wasnt worried, he used a really soft attack and neutralized the Water Pulse, he didnt want to end this so quickly, so he used a really weak attack, he knew this pokemon was of a really low level, and if he was too rough, he could hurt badly Misty's pokemon, or even worse.

Misty looked at the dragon confused, how could he simply neutralize a water attack whit no effort? How?! It doesn't matter, she wasn't going to stop. "Goldeen use hidropump, full power!" She grinned, maybe he has tired after doing that impressive attack and he couldn't dodge the hidropump.

The dragon/ground type was still linked to Mary and Lilly, he reassured them about the battle, he knew now and was sure to win, her pokemons where inexperienced -"Zealth, double team." She said calmly, at that, Zealth started to move in circles at his top speed, making the illusion there where hundreds of him, even at that speed, he could see what was happening and where exactly he was, his senses where incredible, the time slowed for him, he could see the hidropump slowly approaching, he stopped next to the stream of water and stopped, breaking the double team illusion instantly, and the water passed by his side harmlessly. He grinned at the confused looking water type.

"Zealth, bite that Goldeen a little" Mary called, and he moved to do it so fast, that Goldeen didn't have time to react, Misty was unable to say anything, she didn't know what to do, that Garchomp was incredibly strong and fast. He gasped at the sight of her Goldeen in the jaws of the mighty dragon type, he slowly started to close, but he was really gentle, he didn't want to kill her pokemon, Goldeen screamed, she was powerless to do anything, her Goldeen who was a female told Zealth to release her, and she surrender, so he complied, she opened his jaws and let her go to the water unharmed, Goldeen swimming where her trainer was and jumped to her, Misty catched her in her arms.

"T-thank you for letting her go Zealth, I will take good care of her, I really thank you for not hurting her..." Misty said, she was crying but anyone noticed, only Lilly, she felt the worry that the Gym Leader had deemed when she saw her Pokemon in the jaws of Zealth, she tried to hide how terrified she was, but she couldn't give up.
Zealth nodded and Misty smiled at him, this was not over yet.

"Staryu go!" Misty called, and in a flash, a 5 pointed star Pokemon whit a brown body in the extremities and a golden body, whit a red core which glows red, he had never seen a Pokemon like this, mostly because it was a sea pokemon, but his dad had told him and he knew what he needed to know, he could be a bit more serious and use some more power, this pokemon can regenerate his brown extremities, and he knew if the core light in the star shaped creature started to blink, he had to stop attacking.

"Staryu, use Swift!" Misty called, and Staryu fired a lot of yellow glowing stars from his core, Zealth knew that attack, a lot of Pokemon used it because it could be dodged, but it was a normal type attack, he simply stranded still and let all the stars hit his army's wings, they where really useful to block attacks, the scales in that area where really thick. He didn't really felt the attack, it was like someone throwing a pillow at him, he chucked.

"Zealth, use poison fang" So he started running and Starmie attacked again whit Swift, he blocked and jumped on top of the Water type, and held it whit his claws. Then he bite it hard, 2 appendages if the Staryu where into a incredible pressure, and purple venom was burning the skin if the poor water pokemon, Staryu couldn't talk, but his light was blinking rapidly, and when it stated to blink slower, like it was going to turn off, he let go of it, and jumped back into the ground.
Staryu was floating in the water, it was not moving anymore, and the light in his center was slowly blinking, like it was just about to stop forever.

"Staryu come back!" Misty called and bring a pokeball and in a flash of light, the star shaped Pokemon disappeared, she looked at the floor and started to cry softly, there was blood in the water, a lot of light blue blood of Staryu, and the jaws of Zealth where covered in the slimy substance. He noticed her cry, and then he noticed too the blood and the flavor of it in his mouth, it was different to most pokemons blood, but it was, but he didn't feel bad, he had just fight fairly and used his attacks in the other polemon's parts that could regenerate.
Misty shook her head, it was over, she didn't want to lose, but she didn't want to lose her Starmie, what of someone wanted to challenge her next and she couldn't because all her pokemons where in the Pokemon center? She had to surrender now, there was no way to win, she stopped crying and walked to the referi and told him "I surrender, there is no way I can win this and I don't want more of my pokemons to get hurt in this battle, it was a fair battle, it's not anyone's fault that Zealth is a incredible pokemon, he is strong and kind at the same time, he didn't hurt my team that badly, and I know he is holding back, you... I'm a little angry because I lost, but it's not my position to deny your attributes, you trained and became the strongest Pokemon I know, and I don't blame you for hurting Staryu, you know? It was my fault, I was the one who didn't noticed how strong you are and I put my pokemons in harm's way".

"Misty... I'm sorry, I hope Staryu gets better, I know that Zealth feeks the same, my team are all linked tramps to Lilly, she is a Psychic type, we share our feelings and thoughts, and he reassured me during the fight, he knew your pokemons where not at his level, and he say he wasn't going to hurt them that badly, he also told me that Staryu have amazing regenerative capacity and they could regenerate limbs if they lost them in a fight, so don't worry, he also say he's sorry to make you cry, he doesn't like to make others cry..." She sigued, she would feel bad too if something happened to Lilly, he would reacted even worse, Misty was really strong, maybe some day she could be as strong as she was, she hoped.

"No Mary, you where great" Misty smiled at her and walked to her "I know you have potential as a trainer, you knew exactly what to do, and when to do it, and you trusted in your pokemons and they trusted you, you deserv the Cascade badge, you have earned it, you and your team are amazing! you should follow your dreams, and always keep up, so..." Misty gave the Cascade badge to Mary and nodded smiling, she smiled back, she finally did it, now she was a step closer to become a Pokemon Professor! "Here you have, the next gym you should challenge is Brock's, his gym is specialized in Rock type, its in Pewter City. Thanks for that fight, the first time i lose like this... Anyways, good luck!"

"Thanks Misty, thank you, you really are a strong gym leader, i learned a lot, this was my first gym battle after all, good bye, dont forget to get your pokemons to the pokemon center!" Mary waved goodbye and she and her team exited the gym. After that, Misty went to the pokemon center to get her pokemons medical attention.

"So... what you're gonna do now Zealth? we already win the badge, and you had your fight... What would you like?

'You really are a good trainer, i never knew humans where so kind and nice, im sorry, i would like to stay whit you, be part of your team, but i must travel my own way, i want to meet more Legendary Pokemon, i will search for them, i fighted Mewtwo yestarday, you know who is Mewtwo by the way?'

'w-what? you know Legendary Pokemon? really?' Her eyes widened, she always wanted to see a Legendary, she hard stories, about some of them, maybe she could at least ask him and maybe learn something. 'So, what Legendary you have met? what where they like? Please do tell, i always dreamed whit meet one myself!' She grinned.

'Well, when i was just a little Gible, me and my parents met Zygade, he is huge! is tall like a house, his body is long, covered in scales green in the belly, chest and tail, and black in the back and the head, he doesnt have arms, his eyes look like green hexagons, in the back of the head he have 5 fins, whit a green gemstone in each one.' He smiled. 'Also he is really nice, he was nice to me and let me ride in his head when i was just little Gible, thats all i can say about him, all i remember.'

'And what other Legedary you have met? say you knew 2, who is the other one?' She looked at him doubfully.

'Its Mewtwo, he said he was a Legendary, i met him yesterday, i challenged him to a fight' He sighed. 'I tried to attack whit all my streght, i charged at him even faster that what you saw today to try to use Crunch, and he stopped he whit his psychic powers, then he... he held every muscle in my body, even my jaws in place, he just let me breathe, but i couldn't even speak, and then, after like 2 minutes like that, he trew me to the side whit incredible force, some of my ribs cracked, but i got up, and keep fighting, i created a sandstorm, then dig underground to attack from under his feet, it should have worked, but when i tried to break trought the surface, he made a shield and i couldn't break it, i tried everything but it was impossible, then i tried to fled underground to search for another way to attack him... i was getting weak, i could barely stand the pain, then... when i was getting away, underground, he somehow catched me, i dont know how he is so strong, he simply using his powers, take a hold of my tail and get me out of the dirt, like a fished getting a fish from the river, i really dont like that much remember that... then i tried to attack him, i was hanging upside down from my tail, y tried everything but he wasnt close enough, when i tried to attack him whit Outrage he dropped me, and i hit the ground facefirst, and i fainted, thats all i remember'. He shook his head, remember that almost made him cry, he had felt so powerless, so helpless, it was that what it feel to be a prey? He shrugged.

'Thats horrible! why you decided to fight him? He coul have easily killed you!' Mary yelled in his mind.

'He could have, bet he didn't, he was just accepting a challenge, It was my fault I got hurt. Also! You know why in fine and full of energy?' He smiled at her, he had already accepted his errors, he had learned the hard way. 'Because he healed me afterwards, he used a really powerful Heal Pulse, and in a couple of seconds I was up and alright, like in right now'

'B-but... Are you sure you are alright? I can take you to a Pokemon center if you want, at least to check if you are a-ok! I'm sure you didn't got hurt on this battle but... It's always good to be sure' She scratched his head and neck scales whit her hand.

He rolled his eyes at the display of affection, but slimed. -'If you say so... But we better get going, it's getting late and tomorrow I must go on my way, I want to visit new places!' He laughed and remembered something. 'Hey shouldn't you tell your parents the good news? They'll gona so proud and happy for you!'

'Mary, Zealth Is right, mom and dad are waiting, I told them we where going after beating the gym leader. Want me to teleport you both? Lilly asked.

'Yes please Lilly, they gonna be so happy!'

'Don't teleport me, I can just fly there, good luck, I'll be there a minute.' He hugged his new friends and in a flash, both girls where gone, he smiled, everything looked up, it was a nice day to fly, the sky was clean and dry, he take flight and headed toward the house, he noticed people watching him pass and waving at him so he waved back. 'I like towns, sometimes it just feels nice to have other pokemons or humans to talk to, well to communicate, this is a little but nice city' Zealth landed in the street a couple of feet from Mary's house.

"Please come in Zealth!" Mary's mother called from the door, nodded and follow her to the living room, where all the family was. They where all in the sofa, Mary was telling them about the battle. He waited politely until she finished to tell her parents the course of the battle. They where really happy, and congratulated her on winning the gym badge. His father told him

"Thank you Zealth, really thank you for helping out my daughter win that badge, that means a lot to me... So, I'm gonna give you something, I got this from a Pokemon Professor, he told me if I ever met a trainer whit a Garchomp, I should give them this, I know you don't want a trainer... So I been told, but doesn't matter, I can give you a backpack so you carry this whit you" He handled a backpack whit a wooden box inside, then helped the dragon to get it in his back. Zealth didn't know what to say, he didn't want to ask thing just for helping we friend win a badge, but he doesn't want to say no, and possibly make him feel bad, so he accepted and smiled at him. What was I. The box? He was going to find our sooner or later...

"Thanks for the help mister Zealth!" Mary's mother said cheerfully. She then gave him a little bag full if pokeblocks and a lot of berrys. He was told if he find the correct one, it was delicious and the effect was relaxing. He nodded and told Mary.

'Im sorry Mary, I should go now, I'm gonna miss you, you and your family, that includes Lilly too, I hope our paths will cross again in the future, you'll be the best Pokmon Professor ever I know it!" He smiled sadly, he didn't like to say goodbye, but he couldn't stay whit her.

She hugged him tight and didn't say anything, then she told her parents Zealth was going now, she tried to stay strong and don't cry.
After they said their goodbyes, the 3 friends went outside, Mary hugged him and Lilly joined, they were like that for a minute, Mary was petting him in the head and he nuzzled her and Lilly, the she let him go, he started to walk away, waved at the girls and take flight, he has made new friends and was really happy. A little sad because they took different ways, but he was feeling good, this had been a good day! He headed towards Sinnoh.
