Chapter 2- Mega Evolution and the Prism Tower!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 2- Mega Evolution and the Prism Tower!Excitement filled the air as Ash and his friends arrived in the Kalos region! But they so as they arrive, Team Rocket was after our heroes again! However, a brave Pokémon named Froakie saved the day, but Froakie took a lot of damage while battling We join Ash as he races to Professor Sycamore Pokémon lab, with an injured Froakie in his arms! "This way!" Bonnie urged them. "Hurry up!" "Okay," Ash said. "Froakie, you've gotta hang in there!" "Clemont!" Bonnie yelled. "Go faster." "I'm running as fast as I can," Clemont being exhausted. "Don't wait for me! Get going!" "You got it," Jaden nodded. "I can't believe how slow my brother is," Bonnie sighed. Meanwhile with Team Rocket was sitting in a tree after they got blasted. "Unforgivable," James groaned. "And embarrassing," Aria grumbled. "Ash, this way!" They heard Fluttershy's voice. "Right," Also heard Ash's voice. "This is it," Jaden said. "The Sycamore Pokémon lab!" "It's the little twerp," Clyde saw them. "Sycamore Pokémon lab?" Adagio asked. "It must be for studying Pokémon," Duke mentioned. "Ooo, maybe the Pokémon in the place must be really strong and very rare." Sonata smiled. Then Woobuffet came out of its Pokéball and the branch broke and they fell down. Meanwhile, Ash, Bonnie, Twilight, Jaden, and Fluttershy were inside the lab. "Hello? Professor Sycamore, are you here?" Jaden asked to see if the professor was in the room. "Coming," Prof. Sycamore came in the room and then gasped. "Oh my, Froakie!" "You know this Froakie, Professor?" Ash asked him. "I sure do," The professor responded. "Sophie, Starlight, come quick! We've been so worried about you. Your trainer has been in recent contact with us." Then Sophie and Starlight Glimmer came in. "Froakie needs help." "Right," Sophie and Starlight nodded. "Quick, let's take him to the infirmary." "Thanks, Professor," Ash thanked him. "We've been worried about Froakie, too. So is Froakie's trainer on the way here now?" "I afraid not," Sycamore shook his head. "He contacted us to let us know he wanted to give up Froakie." Suddenly the door open up to Clemont who was out of breath. "You are so slow!" Bonnie groaned. "How's Froakie?" Clemont asked. Moments Later both Starlight and Sophie were hard at work to heal up Froakie. "Poor Froakie," Jaden said in concern. "There's nothing to worry about," Sycamore reminded him. "Those two are very good at what they do." "Great," Jaden was relieved. "I'm Professor Sycamore," He started to introduce himself. "A Pokémon researcher working here in Kalos." "Nice to meet you, my name's Ash and this is my partner Pikachu!" "Pika!" "My name's Jaden, and this is Sneasel." "I'm Twilight Sparkle, and this is Espeon." "Fluttershy," "I'm Bonnie and this is my brother Clemont!" "It's truly an honor to meet you, Professor Sycamore." "Pikachu and I got here today from Pallet Town in Kanto," "My home is in Twinleaf Town in Sinnoh," "From Kanto and Sinnoh?" "Right, I'm traveling on a journey so I can become a Pokémon Master!" "And I want to understand the world of Pokémon." "Then welcome, forgive me for not thanking you yet for saving Froakie. It's much apprenticed." "Well, truth is Froakie saved us!" Ash explained. "So what's the deal with Froakie's trainer? What happened that would make him give Froakie up?" "One of my many responsibilities is to give trainers their very first Pokémon," Sycamore explained. "Froakie's a Pokémon meant for new trainers. But this particular Froakie is a bit different, refusing to listen to its trainer during battle. There have been times when Froakie ran away, simply because it didn't like its trainer. And several trainers have come back to my lab to return it." Hearing this made everyone gasp. "You mean more than," Twilight exclaimed. "I'm sure Froakie acts that way for a reason." "So Froakie's hard a hard life," Fluttershy said. "There have been rumors in Unova about a new trainer's Pokémon like that," Jaden confessed. "But it seemed absurd, so I never believed them." Then they heard a Pokémon cry it turned out to be a Garchchomp and with him another lab assistant by the name of Sunburst. "Check it out," Ash shouted. "A Garchomp." "Garchomp lives here at the lab," Sycamore said. "It has a good heart." "Gar," "Garchomp, how are you feeling?" Sycamore asked the Mach Pokémon. "Gar..." "Froa," "Froakie will be fine, don't worry," The Professor reassured him. "You can thank these people." Garchomp turned and saw Ash and the others. "Nice to meet you, Garchomp," Ash said. "Pika, Pika!" "You really care a lot, don't you?" Ash walked to him. "Froakie's gonna be okay. Promise!" "Can I pet Garchomp please?" Bonnie asked the professor. "I've never seen a real one before!" "Of course." He agreed. "He would really like that!" "Yay!" the little girl jumped for joy and petted him. "Aw, you're so cute, good Pokémon. Hey, you like me!" "Professor?" Clemont asked him. "I've heard a lot about your research on Pokémon Evolution. Is it true?" "Yeah, there are a lot more Pokémon living right here at the lab than Garchomp," He explained. "Oh, I wanna see them, I wanna see them!" Bonnie urged him. "Well, I think we can do something about that," Sycamore said. "Sunburst, look after Garchomp will you?" "Of course, sure thing," Sunburst nodded as everyone but Ash left. "Aren't you guys coming?" Fluttershy asked. "We'll catch up with you!" Ash said. "Uh, okay," Fluttershy nodded. Then Ash and Pikachu enter the room. "Hey Froakie, I really want to thank you for saving me," Ash thanked the Bubble Frog Pokémon. "Pikachu and I think you're awesome!" "Froakie..." "I don't get it, I want a Pokémon like you! Look what you did you cared enough to save Pikachu. You're the best!" "Pika!" In the greenhouse, Bonnie was playing with Pokémon then Ash walked in. "Amazing," Ash said seeing the Pokémon. "So Ash, how's Froakie feeling?" Clemont asked. "Much better!" Ash responded. "Froakie's really strong!" "My word," Twilight gasped. "I've seen these Pokémon! I can't even count this much!" "So Profesor," Jaden grabbed his attention. "What kind of Evolution are you researching?" "Well," Sycamore started to explain. "If I told you that Pokémon may have an additional evolutionary stage, what would you say?" "Are you serious?" Jaden was dumbstruck. "So you're saying that Garchomp can still evolve?" Clemont asked. "Possibly-- That's my research." "Whoa, unbelievable," "There have been several reports about different Pokémon evolving in a way that we research refer to as Mega Evolution." "Mega Evolution?" Ash wondered. "A lot of things are still a mystery... but we believe that a strong bond between Pokémon and trainer as well as a special stone, play a crucial role in evolving!" "Strong bond," "Snea?" "Pika?" "What's more, a Pokémon's able to return to its previous form after it evolves this way!" "It can turn back?" They weren't the only ones who hear about this as Team Rocket listen through the skylight. "Mega Evolution," Meowth wondered. "Strong stuff!" "Further evolution, after evolving," Adagio exclaimed. "So, what's the plan?" Aria asked Jessie. "Simple," Jessie explained to her. "We'll snatch every Pokémon!" "It's catching season!" Duke explained as Team Rocket snicked then Wobbuffett came out again. "Wobb," Team Rocket closes its mouth trying to shush it. Then Team Rocket enters the lab in their costumes. "Oh, fellow researchers?" Jessie called them out. "We come to Mega Evolution!" Clyde exclaimed. "You have?" Starlight asked as she came into the room. "We've to be of scientific service!" Adagio said. "I wasn't told anything about this," Starlight mentioned as Sunburst and Garchomp came in as well. "I check with the professor," Sunburst said as left to get Sycamore then the disguised Team Rocket talked almost themselves. "Gar!" Garchomp roared. "Kie! Froakie!" Froakie came in and saw them. "Froakie!" "Gar!" "That's the Froakie that blasted us off!" Aria pointed at it. "Then that's the one who feels our research wrath first," Clyde said as James grabs a cube-like device. "So, let's get ready to research!" James shouted. "No please, " Sonata urged Starlight to move. "Step aside. This is not for the faint of heart." "Voila, " James said as he threw the device at Froakie but Garchomp stepped in and the device transform into a shock collar. "Gar!" "Froakie!" "Oh no, Garmchomp!" Starlight screamed. "Not our intended target," Adagio said. "But whatever. They did say Garchomp might be able to Mega Evolve." "Let's roll with it," Aria suggested. "It's Garchomp grab!" "Garchomp," James said as he activated his pad. " We insist that you come for the ride!" Froakie tried to remove the collar but it got shocked in the process. Garchomp screamed as went under extreme pain. "Hey, that Garchomp," Ash heard it. Back inside, Garchomp fired a Hyper Beam around the lab then its eyes turned red. ' "Wait a minute," Adagio wondered. "This isn't how we planned it!" "Come on," Duke urged it. "Get with the program!" "Most peculiar..." James said. "Garchomp," Ash said as he and the others came into the room. "What going on?" Twilight asked. "Professor, those guys did this," Starlight pointed at the scientists. "All right, who are you!" Sycamore asked sternly. "Prepare for trouble, all right, we're us! "And make it double, no muss, no fuss!" They ditch their disguisings and revealed themselves. "Oh no, Team Rocket," Ash angrily said. "You are such annoying, bad people!" Bonnie complained. "Team Rocket?" Sycamore asked. "Jerks who try to steal everybody's people Pokémon!" Fluttershy dryly said. "Try?" Duke toyed with them. "We succeed!" "And today, Garmchomp will fill that need!" Clyde as then he and Duke high-five. "There's nothing like doing an evil deed!" Meowth said joining them. "It can't be! A talking Meowth?' Sycamore was shocked that it could speak. "The wisdom gushes out of my mouth." Garchomp fired another Hyper Beam at Team Rocket. "Foul, no fair!" All of them said. "Wobbuffet!" Team Rocket disappeared out of sight. "What's going on?" Ash asked concerned about Garchomp's condition. Garchomp fired another Hyper Beam at Ash and the others. "Look out!" Jaden as they all duct. "What was that for?" Twilight exclaimed. "Hey, look at Garchomp's neck!" Clemont mentioned noticing the collar on its neck. "It looks like a collar," Fluttershy said. 'It came from them!" Starlight said. "What?" "Garchomp jumped in to save Froakie." She explained then Garchomp fled the lab. "Garchomp," Ash yelled. "Garchomp must be in a lot of pain," Fluttershy said in concern. "What's gonna happen to Garchomp?" Bonnie asked. "Let's go after it!" Ash said as he, Twilight, and Jade headed out. "Pika!" "Please, be very careful!" Sycamore urged them. "Starlight, Sunburst check to see if the other Pokémon are okay!" "Oh Clemont," Bonnie clenched to her brother. "I wish we could help poor Garchomp out..." "Then let's go, too," Clemont said. Just as about to exit Froakie blocked the door. "Froakie!" "Froakie, what?" Ash asked. "Froak!" "Great!" Jaden said. 'You wanna come?" "Sneasel!" "Pikachu!" "Then lead the way!" Twilight exclaimed as they headed out. Pokémon Brain Teaser #2 This Pokémon uses its bubbles as a cushion against the blows of the opponent's attack Answer: Froakie Garchomp was flying high in the shy firing multiple Hyper Beams throughout Lumiose City as such Officer Jenny and another officer were on high alert. "There's a Garchomp currently on a wild rampage!" Jenny said on the loudspeaker. "Please evacuate the area immediately." Then a news copter came flying by. At present Garchomp is flying toward Prism Tower! Garchomp landed an attack on the copter with Hyper Beam. Garchomp is now unleashing random Hyper Beams! It just aimed one straight at our helicopter! Garchomp seems extremely agitated. As the TV said a woman called Grace and two girls named Applejack and Rarity were watching. "Have a look at this," Grace requested her daughter Serena to see. "Somethin' unbelievable is happening." "Oh yeah, something unbelievable has happened to my face, okay?" Serena showed two bandages on her face. "Don't tell me," Applejack knew what to her face. "Early Morning Rhyhorn training." "Yep," Serena responded. "What movie is this?" "It's not a movie," Rarity exclaimed. "It's from the heart of Kalos, Lumiose City. Something awful is going on." Garchomp continued to use Hyper Beam. Then Ash and the others arrived. "We need to get close to it..." Ash said. "But that's dangerous!" Fluttershy gasped. "No, Garchomp's the one who's in danger," Ash pointed out. "I've gotta find a way to get that collar off!" "Froak?" "I know," Clemont gasped. "If getting close to Garchomp is what you need to do, I think I just came with a way!" "Really?" Twilight asked him. The gang went around the back of Prism Tower. "There's an emergency stairwell through that door," Clemont explained. "Good thing I brought my backpack. The future is now thanks to science. All right Clemontic Gear on!" He pressed a button on the backpack and a robotic arm came out. "Aipom Arm let's go," "Wow, check that out!" Ash exclaimed. "Pika," "Now we can get in," Clemont said. "That's what I call science," Twilight said. "Yeah it's amazing," Ash added. "It's my brother's invention!" Bonnie said. "I must admit," Clemont confessed. "I'm kind of good at these things." "Thanks, Clemont," Jaden thanked him. "Sure thing..." Clemont replied back then saw a purple light it was another Hyper Beam. "Clemont, Bonnie, Fluttershy?" Ash asked. "Are you all okay?" From the rubble, they heard Clemont's voice. "Yeah, but don't worry about us! You keep on going." "On it," Ash said. "Officer Jenny," the officer heard Sycamore coming to her. "Professor Sycamore," Jenny answered back. "I'm sorry for all the trouble, so where's Garchomp?" The professor asked. "Hey up there," A man said as he pointed up. "There are some kids." "What," The professor looks up. "It's Ash, Twilight, and Jaden." Garchomp was still in pain from the collar. "Hey Garchomp," Ash said as the trio walked slowly to him. Garchomp looked at them and fired a Hyper Beam at them but all of them dodged it. "Please, Garchomp," Twilight pleaded. "You've gotta calm down!" There are a couple of kids on Prism Tower. Could they be trying to talk to Garchomp?] "I wonder if that kid with the hat is Garchomp's Trainer?" Applejack asked. Back at Prism Tower Garchomp flew off and went to the very top. "Hey look," Jaden grabbed their attention. "We can climb to the top." Ash and others used the ladders and climbed to the top. "Were to help, Garchomp," Ash said. This is unreal. All three of them have climbed to the Prism Tower! Garchomp fired another Hyper Beam, but they all dodged them. Then their Pokémon readied themselves. "Wait, " Jaden pleaded. "Don't attack!" "Pika?" "We need to get close and destroy that collar," Ash said. "Garchomp, can you hear me?" "I know its hurts! You're in a lot of pain!" "We just want to help you," "Please, let me get that collar off you," Twilight came in. "So we can go back down!" "Please." "So what do you say?" Garchomp tried to calm down but the collar shocked him. Froakie used its Frubbles to the Mach Pokémon from falling down. "Nice thinking, Froakie," Ash thanked it. "We need to destroy that collar," Jaden came in. "Me and Twilgiht we pinned him down, Ash once I give the signal have Pikachu use Iron Tail on it." "Right," Ash agreed. Both Jaden and Twilight grabbed him holding him down. "We've got him." Jaden continued. "Do it!" "Right, Pikachu, use Iron Tail on the collar." Pikachu used Iron Tail and destroy the collar. Garchomp was relieved and was on its knees. "Are you okay?" Ash asked. "That must have hurt a lot," Twilight came in. "Help's on its way, don't worry." Just as Pikachu approached them the ground gave out and Pikachu fell. "Pikachu!" Ash yelled as jumped off the Tower to save his friend. Everyone gasped seeing this including Applejack, Rarity, and Serena. Ash caught up and grabbed them a bright red flash grabbed both and landed them safely. "Thanks a lot!" Ash thanks the Pokémon. "What a relief," Jaden sighed. "Ash, Pikachu," Professor Sycamore shouted as he ran to them. "Thank goddess that both of you are not hurt." "We're doing great," Ash said, "And Garchompe's all back to normal!" "Thank you, Ash," Sycamore thank them. "Officer Jenny is on her to get them now." "Professor," Ash started to talk. "About that Pokémon." Both of them look like a guy in a Blaziken Mask and both of them vanished. "That was Blaziken's Mega Evolution." The professor gasped. "That's Mega Blaziken." "Mega Blaziken?" Ash asked. "Another research topic for me." "Thanks for everything!" Meanwhile... "What a relief," Serena sighed. "That boy. No, it couldn't be." The Next Morning... "Hope you all got some sleep," The professor asked. "Even though it's a mess in there." "Yeah I slept like a log," Ash responded. "Best sleep I've had in a long time!" Bonnie agreed. "Thank you for everything," Fluttershy thanked him. "I guess your real journey begins now, doesn't it?" Sycamore asked them. "Yup," Ash replied. "Oh and by way, have you three received a Kalos Region Pokédex yet?" "No," Ash. Twilight and Jaden shook their heads. "Then please take this with you on your journey, and for Jaden, this was custom-made for you." He gives Ash and Twilight two Pokédexs with Twilight's having her pony form cutie mark. And for Jaden was for his wrist. "Thanks," All three of them smiled back. "Are you ready to go, buddy?" Ash asked Pikachu. "Pikachu!" "Good luck with your research, Professor!" Jaden mentioned. Then Froakie appeared with a Pokéball and rolled to Ash. "I think it wants to go with you," The professor said. "I can't believe it," Clemont said. "Froakie chose you!" "It really likes Ash," Bonnie mentioned. "That's so sweet," Fluttershy added. "You think so, huh?" Ash thought to himself. "So Froakie, do you wanna come with us?" Froakie tapped the Pokéball allowing him to go in it after a few seconds of shaking it stopped then a white flash appeared now that Froakie was caught. "It's awesome you're coming with us, Froakie," Ash said. "Pikachu, Froakie's our first friend in Kalos!" "Yes! I got a Froakie!" Ash said holding Froakie's Pokéball.

"Yeah, come in," Serena said hearing the knock knowing that was her Mom. "Are you going out?" Grace asked. "Yeah, with Rarity and Applejack," Serena replied. "Hey, Mom, which one should I wear?" She holds two hats in front of her. "I'd go with that!" Grace picks the left one. "Kay, this one," Serena picks the right and puts it on her head. "If you already knew why did you ask?" "Rarity told me whichever one you didn't pick is the cuter one, that why," Serena asked. "I see," Grace sighed. "So where are you going?" "Lumiose City with the girls! To see Professor Sycamore and get my very first Pokémon!" In Lumiose, Ash has just befriended Froakie, his first Kalos region Pokémon at Professor Sycamore's research lab. "Come on, hurry it up, you guys," Bonnie urged the others to pick up the pace. "Ash, you can register for the Kalos League over this way!" "Yeah, we know Bonnie!" Ash pointed out. "There's no need to rush," Twilight said. "The Pokémon Center will still be there," Clemont mentioned. "Thanks a lot, Clemont," Ash thanked him. "It's nice of you to bring us here." "Please think nothing of it, Ash," Clemont mentioned. "I confess I'm a little in awe of you." "In awe?" Ash asked. "You were willing to do anything you could help Pikachu and that Garchomp back there," Clemont said. "Just watching you gave me courage!" "Oh come on," Ash laugh a bit. "It wasn't that big of a deal." "It was, I can totally understand why Froakie chose you." Then Ash pulled out Froakie's Pokéball just as Clemont look up at Prism Tower. I'll have to do better. Clemont thought to himself. "Something wrong," Jaden noticed something, "I'm sorry, just talking to myself," Clemont regained his posture. Then our heroes enter the Pokémon Center and Nurse Joy and Nurse Redheart. "Good morning," Both of the nurses bow and greet. "Morning to both of you," Ash greeted them back. "At this Pokémon Center, helping Pokémon in need is our number one goal!" Nurse Joy said. "We're here for trainers and Pokémon alike," Nurse Redheart added. "Pika!" "I was hoping you could help me register for Kalos League!" Ash requested. "Sure," Nurse Redheart said happily. "If you please touch this panel with Pokédex." "Okay," Ash replied placed his Pokédex on the panel. Ash from Pallet Town is now registered to enter the Kalos League. The number of badges in your possession is zero. We wish you the best of luck. "You're all set now, Ash," Jaden said. "Awesome and I'm gonna win!" Ash exclaimed. "The next step in becoming a Pokémon Master." "And every registered trainer is eligible to receive a Kalos region case, here," Nurse Joy mentioned. Then a Wiggytuff came by a gave Ash a badge case. "A Wigglytuff!" Ash exclaimed seeing a Pokémon that he knows. "Why yes," Nurse Redheart exclaimed. "Here in the Kalos region, our able Pokémon Center assistant is Wigglytuff." "That's great." "You're all registered. Good luck!" "Train hard and always do your best!" "Right! Count on it!" Meanwhile, Team Rocket was sitting at a restaurant in disguise. Meowth put a small projection cube on the table to show the image of their boss the Leader of Team Rocket, Giovanni. "Good news, Boss," Adagio spoke up. "We had just arrived on time and according to plan." "Our goal is to catch as many rare and Pokémon as possible," Duke mentioned. "And the full analysis on Pokémon that Mega Evolve," Clyde mentioned. "Another useful tool for our conquest." "And rest assured," Jessie added. "We are 100% committed to that goal." "You can count on us," Aria smirked then something white and black grabbed James's croissant and Sonata's taco. "Good," Giovanni was please as he pets his Persian. "I'm certain the Pokémon you catch will be an addition to our work. Get to it!" "Sir!" All of them saluted back to him. As their boss left all of them gave their classic evil smiles the shouted. "Yes, The boss man said for us to get it!" Adagio shouted. "He's counting on us!"Sonata excitedly screamed. "Yippee yay!" "We're the first step in Team Rocket's takeover of Kalos," Meowth brought up. "Cause no one does takeovers as we do!" Then both James and Sonata noticed something. "What happened to my croissant?" James asked what happened to snack. "And where the heck is my breakfast taco?" Sonata was also brought up. Under the table, an Inkay and a Yamask ate both of the snacks. Meanwhile, Ash was on a video call to Professor Oak showing Rotom. "Hey, Rotom!" Ash greeted the Plasma Pokémon then the Kanto professor appeared. "Hello Ash," Oak greeted him. "How are things so far?" "Great! We arrived safely in the Kalos Region. "We're going start our journey soon!" "Good! Have fun on the road." "Thanks! I already caught my first Kalos Pokémon." "Wonderful!" "Check it out!" Ash released Froakie from its Pokéball for the Professor to see. "What have we here? A Froakie, a Kaols Water-type Pokémon!" "Your right! You know everything!" Then Rotom block his view. "Hey Rotom I can't see!" ... "Hey guys," Ash greeted the others as he walked out. "Hi, Ash!" Fluttershy asked. "Didn't you tell us you were going to challenge the Santalune Gym first?" "Yeah," Ash nod his head. "I'm pretty sure the Gym Leader should be back by now." "I think the best way to get to Santalune City is by traveling Route Four all the way there!" "Then route four it is! Aren't you psyched, Pikachu?" "Pika!" "Froakiem you're gonna be great!" "Froakie!" "Then what are we waiting for, " Clemont came in. "The sooner we leave the sooner we're there!" "You don't have to show me anymore," Ash thanked them. "Silly Ash," Bonnie joked. "We're really, really good friends now right? So we're going with you!" "No joke?" "We're serouis," Clemont exclaimed. "Remeber what you did back there?" Fluttershy mentioned. "You show us what it's like to have really courage." "All of us can get stronger traveling with you!" "Your right, Fluttershy!" "If it's okay," "Of corsoe it's okay! Traveling with friends is way more fun!" All three of them smlied in pleasure. "All right it's a deal!" Ash said. "We'll have a great time!" "Yeah, we sure will!" Both Ash and Clemont joins hands, then Jaden, Twilight, Fluttershy, Bonnie and the Pokémon came as well. "Kalos here we come!" Jaden shouted as everyone raised their hands. "Yeah!" Meanwhile, Serena said her goodbyes to her mom and caught up with Applejack and Rairty who were already on their way to Lumiose City. "So Serena," Rarity asked her. "Do you have an idea which Pokémon you want?" "Sure do," Serena responded. "Which one?' Applejack asked. "You know when we get there," Serean telling Applejack that it's a secret. Back Ash and the others have made progress to Santalune City. As the walking the Pokémon suddenly stop. "Is something wrong," Jaden asked them then from out of nowhere a berry fell on Pikachu's head and landed on the ground. As Pikachu went close to it and Thundershock came down and the elefricted berry hit Bonnie on the nose. "Bonnie are you okay?" Clemont asked his little sister. "Whoa, that was a shock..." said a surprised Bonnie. "What was that?" Twilight asked. Then busleted out of the grass a small Pokémon appeared and Pikachu confronted it. "Never seen that Pokémon!" Ash exclaimed. "Ah it's so cute!" Bonnie scremed. Suddenly both Pikachu and the Pokémon gave off a spark. "It sure doesn't look like it's afraid of us," Fluttershy said. "There electric types, " Jaden explained. "So they can communicate with Eletriclty." "So that Pokémon is Electiric Type," Ash said as pull out his Pokédex. Dedenne, the Attenna Pokémon. Its whiskers serve as antennas. By sending and receiving electrical waves, it can communicate with others over vast distances. "So that's Dedenne," Ash was surprised. "I want it so bad. Hey, you'll keep it for me, won't you?" Bonnie pulled on his shoulder. "Keep it?" Twlight asked. "Yeah, he'll keep it for me until I'm old enough to become a trainer." Bonnie replied. "Pretty, pretty please? I'm promise I'll take care of it," "Let me see," Clemont thought about it. "Aww, do it!" Jaden urged him. "I can help you catch it if you want." "You will," Bonnie gasped. "Thank you, Jaden." "Okay then let's catch Dedenne." Clemont ok it. "Right," Bonnie agree then went down to it's level show a berry in her hand. "Hey Dedenne. You wanted this right?" "It must have thought Pikachu was going to take it." Jaden said. Just as Dedenne was going to take it another Pokémon swapped downand grabbed it. "Hey what's the big idea," Ash said with anger. "I never seen that Pokémon either." "It's a Fletching," Clemont mentioned, "That berry belongs to Dedenne," Fluttershy mentioned. Fletching didn't care and ate the berry. "No fair," Bonnie pouted. Twilight pulled her Pokédex. Flecthling, the Tiny Robin Pokémon. Despite the beauty of its lilting voice, it’s merciless to intruders that enter its territory. Then Dedenne ran away. "I don't think it's going to come back..." Clemont pointed out. Froakie used it Frubbeles but Fletching dodged them all. "It dodged them all,' Twilight gasped. "Look at that, Flecthing fast" Ash mentioned. "All right, I'm gonna catch that Fletching now!" Pokémon Brain Teaser #3 When this Pokémon if your ouch with your bare hands you might get burned. Answer: Flecthing "Since Flecthing an Flying type, Pikachu has an advantage being an Electric type!" Clemont pointed it out." Froakie saw Bonnie was tearing a bit and narrow it's eyes a bit. "Alright Pikachu let's go!" Ash mentioned. "Pika!" "Froakie!" Froakie threw his Frubbles at Fletching but it dogded them all. "Come Froakie," Ash sheriked. "We don't even have a plan! Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" Pikachu prepared to use Thunderbollt, but Froakie urged to stand down and prepare to use Water Pulse just as Fletching used Double Team making copies of itself. "It's using Double Team," Clemont shouted. Froakie fired the Water Pulse only to hit one of the copies which allow the real one to used Peck to make contact which send the Bubble Frog Pokémon into a tree and just he was about fall to ground Ash caught before it happen. "Froakie are you okay?" Fluttershy asked in concern. "Take it easy, and let Pikachu handle this," Ash said. But Froakie didn't listen and jumped out of Ash's arms and still battle with Fletching. "Why would Froakie do that?" Twilight asked. "Didn't Professor Sycamore say that Froakie has habit of ignoring it's tranier when battling?" Fluttershy brought that up. "I starting to understand," Ash said while smiling as Fluttershy turned to him. "Stories Froakie Levaing its trainers... I get it!" Everyone, was shocked that Ash understand why Froakie act like that. Meanwhile Team Rocket were flying in their newly hot-air balloon. "Ah, my kingdom for a little bit of breakfast," Both James Sonata said as they were seriously hungry. "My departed croissant," "My beloved breakfast taco," "It may be a bit early for lunch, but let's bend the the rules," Clyde said as pulled out a basket. "Wow!" James exclaimed. "I second that," As Sonata's mouth started to water a bit. Then a gust of wind came by shook the ballon just causing the basket, tumble causing two of the sandwiches to fall out. "Come back, " Sonata tried to grab them but something white and black grab them instead. "Did you just see what I saw?" Sonata asked Adagio. "Something with a touch of white and black," Adagio replied. "A couple of Pokémon I'll bet," Duke chimed in. "Wobbuffet!" "Murkrow!" Then one of the Pokémon came from squited black ink on all of them. "Houndour!" Back with our heroes, the wild Fletching used Peck on Froakie which send him to the ground but he landed on his feet. "Stop, Froakie!" Ash pleaded as hold Froakie tightly. "Just chill out, you're only going end up hurting yourself!" "In know how you feel, Froakiem but you've gotta listen to me!" "Froak?' "Everyone, take cover," Jaden shouted as Flecthling used Razor Wind. Everyone jumped out of the way but Ash crashed into tree scrpaing his arm. "Everbody okay," Ash asked. "Pikachu? Froakie? Clemont, Bonnie, Jaden, Twilight Fluttershy are you okay too?" "Yeah, we're fine," Clemont said as he and the others were okay." "Pika!" "Hey, Froakie?" Ash asked his Pokémon. "I understand." "You wanted to get even with Fletching for Bonnie sad." "Froak," "Is that true?" Bonnie asked. "Thank you, Froakie!" Bonnie then hugged Froakie as he started to blushed red. "But you can't even without, a plan," Twilight mentioned. "Remember with Flecthing is Flying-type. Meaning it has a serious field advantage. Step one, we need a way to lure it in! Any ideas? Then Clemont chucked a bit. "We you just leave it to me! You see, the future is now thanks to science... Clemontic Gear, On!" He pulls what appeared to be a sort of electronic horn. "Presenting my Flying-type Pokémon Attractor Machine!" "Ah," Both Twilight and Ash were amazed despite Ash having no idea what does it do. "The name needs work," Bonnie sighed. "Moving on," Fluttershy refused the conservation. "What does it do?" "You see," Clemont explained. "Bird Pokémon have a homing instinct by using sound waves of a certain frequency, this little invention of mine can attract or repel bird Pokémon by affecting their internal compass!" "Watch this," Clemont stated. "Power, on!" This device started to make noise.., but it attracted the Beedrill and started to run away meanwhile the machine explode. Then saw Fletching was on them. Ash an idea to use Froakie's jumping to give it more mobility! Flecthing had a hard time as used Peck but it was fake made by the Frubbles. Then Froakie fire Bubble at Close Range causing damage to it. "All right go, Pokéball," Ash there a Pokéball at it but it got out. "So close," Bonnie sighed. "Keep your guard up! Jump up and get above it again! Froakie kept jumping while dodging the Razor wind. And then Froakie used Water Pulse at close range. And Fletching fell down. "This for sure," As Ash turned his backward. "Go, Pokéball." The Pokéball caught Fletchling and after it shook it stop shaking it stop meaning it was caught. "Yeah!" Ash said as he grabs Fletching Pokéball. "I caught a Fletching!" "Pikachu!" "Froakie!" Then Froakie fell down being exhausted. "Are you okay," Fluttershy asked. "Wasn't that amazing?" Bonnie asked. "Sure was!" Jaden replied. "Froakie's jumping kept getting better!" "Same with your teamwork," Twilight added. "Yeah, I'm staring to understand a lot about Froakie... Come on Fletchling!" Fletching came out of its Pokéball. "From now on, we're gonna be good friends, all of us," "And Fletching, tell me if you get hungry next time, because stealing other Pokémon's food is bad!" "Fletch!" "Okay! Youre forgiven," "How about an Oran Berry to celebrate our new friendship?" Fluttershy show it to the bird Pokémon. "Incling you guys as well!" "Pika!" "Froak!" "Snea!" "All right," Twilight came in. "Next stop Santalune City!" And so, Ash has another new friend, Flecthing! As for Team Rocket James and Sonata caught a Inkay and Yamask Now our hereos set their on Santaline City, the journey truly begins! Meanwhile, Serena, Rarity and Applejack had made to the Sycamore Research Lab. "Hello?" Rartiy asked. "Is Professor Scymore around?" Sernea asked as well. "That's me!" Sycamore said as came from upstairs. "I'm up here." They all turn around and saw him. "Hello there," Applejack greeted. "I'm Applejack." "Rarity," "Serena," "I'll bet you'll here to become a Pokémon Trainers." The professor knew the answer. "Why certainly," Rarity anwserd. "Also we saw a Trainer on the news. The report was all about how he had saved a Garchomp." "Oh, you talking about Ash!" "Ash... I knew it!!", Serena thought to herself. "I'm afraid he already left." The professor added. "He was going to challenge the Santalune Gym." "Satnalune Gym," Applejack wondered. "May we choose a Pokémon? "Of course, and do you have any idea idea which Pokémon you three would like?" "Yup!" "All right! Everybody out!" Starlight walked out the room with the Kalos Starter Trio. "These are the Kalos Pokémon new Trainers may choose from: Fennekin, Chespin and Froakie. Which Pokémon will you choose as your partner?" What will Serena and her friends choose? Find out next time!
Chapter 4-A New Friendship! Dedenne and Rotom Join the Party!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 4-A New Friendship! Dedenne and Rotom Join the Party!From we left off Serena, Rarity and Applejack had made to the Sycamore Research Lab were about to pick out their first Pokémon who will they choose? "Why the Pokémon are just so adorable," Rarity exclaimed. "Before, you guys make your decision," Sycamore said. "Here are the Pokédexs one for each of you." He handed Serena, a red Pokédex, a Pokédex with three bright blue diamonds to Rarity, and one with an apple for Applejack. "Thanks very much," Applejack then the device turn on. "Great toad! It's on!" "If you point your Pokédex towards a Pokémon, it'll search for it automatically. " Sycamore explained. "Why give it a try?" "Okay," Serena agreed they pointed it to Fennekin. Fennekin, the Fox Pokémon. Fennekin expels hot air that can reach nearly 400 degrees. It likes snacks on twigs. "Amazing!" "Let's look at you," Rarity pointed her's at Chespin Chespin, the Spiny Nut Pokémon. Chespin can flex the soft spikes on its head, making them so stiff and sharp they can even pierce through stone! "Impressive!" "Last but not least," Applejack pointed her Pokédex to Froakie. Froakie, the Bubble Frog Pokémon. From its chest and back, Froakie creates bubbles called Frubbles which act as a cushion and soften the blow of an opponent's attack. "Wow! That'll come in handy!" "Like it?" The Professor asked. "Yes!" All three said. "Well then go ahead and pick your partner,'" "Well then who going first?" Applejack asked. "I'll go," Serena spoke up. "I knew who wanted before I left the house." Serena walks up to Fennekin and lowers herself to its level. "Fennekin, I pick you!" She exclaimed. "I'm Serena!" "Fennek!" "What about you two?" He asked Rarity and Applejack. "I'm not sure," Rarity said with unease. "They'll are so cute but I can't decide." "Me either," Applejack added. "I've just recently got some starter Pokémon from the other Regions," Sycamore just remembered. "Do want to see them?" "Of course," Both of them nodded. "Sunburst," He called for him. "Coming," He said bringing Treecko, Chimchar, or Totodile with him. "Wow, aren't you guys are adorable," Rarity said. "Which one," He asked. "I'll take Chimchar," Rarity picked the Chimp Pokémon. "I got Treecko," Applejack picked the Wood Gecko Pokémon. With Rarity getting Chimchar and Applejack getting Treecko all three say their goodbyes and exited the lab. Meanwhile Clemont, Bonnie, and Fluttershy have joined Ash and the others as Ash beings his journey to compete in the Kalos League. Now our heroes are happily on their way to Santalune City Gym. "There, all done," Bonnie said while cleaning up Pikachu. "You're nice and clean!" "Pika, Pika!" "That's awesome, thank you!" Ash thanked her. "Aw," Bonnie blused a bit. "You don't have to thank me. I love doing this kind of stuff 'cause I love Pokémon." Bonnie then pet Pikachu's tail making him happy. "Hey Ash," Bonnie asked him. "Does Pikachu like its petted like that?" "Yeah, a whole lot!" Ash said. "What a cutie pie," As Bonnie hugs Pikachu then pets its tail again. "Then just what I'm going to do!" "Look likes fun, let me try," Fluttershy wanted to pet Pikachu's tail. "Hey, Jaden," Bonnie asked him. "Can you let Marshtomp out? I wanna take care of it!" "Okay!" Jaden happily said. "Come on out Marshtomp!" "Marshtomp!" "Hey, Marshtomp do you mind if I clean your fins?" Marshtomp asked the Mud Fish Pokémon "Marsh!" Then Bonnie cleaned its fins. "You're good at that, too!" Jaden exclaimed. "Marshtomp just loves having its fins cleaned!" "Taking care of Pokémon makes you happy, doesn't it?" Twilight asked her. "Yup!" She agreed. Then Bonnie gave some Pokémon food for Pikachu and Marshomp. "Isn't that yummy Pokémon food?" Bonnie asked then out of nowhere a Dedenne snatched it right out of her hand. "No way," Jaden gasped. "Could that be the same Dedenne?" "Yeah," Bonnie responded. "The one who ran away!" "It must've been following us this whole time!" Ash thought about it. "Come on Clemont, catch it, please!" Bonnie urged him. "Alright," Clemont said then they left. "Come back!" Bonnie ran after it then Ash bring out Fletchling and Twilight bring out Flygon. "Fletchling, follow it!" Ash said. "Same thing, Flygon," Twilight said. Both of them flew after them. "Dedenne, wait," Bonnie said as they ran after them. Flygon was still in the air, and Flecthling perched on a tree branch looking. "Do you guys lose it?" Twilight asked them. "Dedenne!" Bonnie called out. "Where are you? Come out, come out, where you are!" Without looking, Bonnie fell into a ditch and hit her head. "Bonnie!" Everyone said in concern. Bonnie looked and saw Dedenne in the hole she tried to grab it but it was too quick and it's popping in and out. "Bunnelby," Clemont called him out. "Get Dedenne out that hole!" Bunnebly appeared and went down the hole along with Pikachu. Ash and the others did the same "Over here?" Ash looking in one hole. "No, over there!" Clemont said looking in another. "A-ha!" Clemont hoisted Pikachu in the air then got hit by a Thunderbolt. "Whoa, that Dedenne sure is quick!" Jaden said. "I want it now!" Bonnie complained then Pikachu went inside. Pikachu searches through the tunnel and found it. Pikachu wanted to come out but it refused so it tackle Dedenne and rolled to another part of the forest. Both of them were dazed. They weren't alone as a wild Rotom joined them asking why are they here. As Pikachu explained Dedenne used it electric talk and started to run away. Pikachu did it back to Dedenne and soon all three of them talking by electricity. But they alone as Team Rocket watch from above, "There's Pikachu," Jessie declared. "True," Aria agreed. "With a Rotom plus one." "Yeah, what is it?" Duke asked. Clyde opens his database with his mechanical arm reach searches as it stops to see Dedenne's picture. "It's a Dedenne, an Electric and Fairy type," Clyde explained. "Never seen one before," Duke said. "They having a back and forth buzz fest," Adagio said. "Since they're Electric-type," James explained. "I'd guess they're in the process of communicating." "Meowth, translation," Jessie ordered him. "No can do," Meowth shook his head. "I don't speak electricity!" "What luck, the twerps are nowhere to be seen!" Adagio smirked. "Perfect," Duke smiled. "His lost our gain." Back with Ash and the others. "I think they're gone," Fluttershy sadly said. "Maybe it got away," Clemont suggested then Bunnebly came up. "Maybe," Ash chimed. "Pikachu hasn't come back either." "Bunnelby, would you mind going down there and looking for Pikachu?" Clemont asked his Pokémon. Bunnelby agreed and went back down. "Pikachu..." Ash said softly hoping his pal was okay. With Pikachu Pikachu, Dedenne, and their new friend Rotom were walking through the forest, then Dedenne's tummy started to rumble. Dedenne was hungry, Rotom saw a tree with fruit and grabbed Pikachu's attention. Pikachu used Thunderbolt and one fruit came and gave it to Dedenne just as was eating some launched a Sludge Bomb at them, Pikachu tackled Dedenne avoided it the attack was Adagio's Skunktank and Team Rocket were right above them. "Prepare for trouble, my prize Pikachu!" "And make it double, with two as well!" "To protect the world from devastation!" "To unite all people within our nation!" "To denounce the evils of truth and love!" "To extend our reach to the above!" "Jessie!" "James!" "Adagio!" "Aria!" "Sonata!" "Duke!" "and Clyde!" "Team Rocket blast off at the speed of light!" "Surrender or get ready to rumble!" "Meowth, that's right!" "Woobuffet!" "Murkrow!" "Now Pikachu, be a polite Pokémon, and let us catch you!" Duke declared. "Dedenne, Rotom, please!" Aria mentioned. "You too!" All three made of run for it. "Stop!" Jessie shouted. "How rude," James shrieked. Team Rocket was chasing after them. Meowth kept firing net after net hoping it would capture them but they avoided them all! Pikachu turned around and a Thunderbolt to them. "Woobuffet, go!" Jessie called out the Patient Pokémon to use Mirror Coat. He absorbed the Thunderbolt and send it back to them and they were blown away from it. "Don't ever get tried," Adagio complained. "Take a break!" Aria groaned. "For our sake!" Sonata cried. "Chill!" Duke. Eventually, all that chase led Pikachu, Dedenne, and Rotom to be at the nearby mountain top. "Give it up!" Jessie declared. "Hey," James said. "Stop," Meowth added. Clyde fired an electric net from the metal arm at Dedenne but it missed causing a fall Pikachu grabs its tail so it wouldn't fall in the hands of Team Rocket. "Gotcha! Almost... once more!" Aria said while trying to grab it. Pikachu hoisted Dedenne up to the top and the trio continued to run. "Drat," Aria grumbled. "If this keeps, they'll get away!" "We can't let that happen," James armed Inkay's Pokéball. "Okay, Inkay. Hey, hey!" Inkay appeared. "Now, tackle," Inkay came at Dedenne with a brutal tackle. Dedenne flew across the field. "Okay, Inkay, Psybeam," Inkay blasted the Psybeam at them causing an explosion that all three of them in the river. "I give, where's Pikachu?" Jessie asked frantically looking for it. "Downstream," Duke saw head down on the river. "They're getting away," Adagio worried. "But I have just thing," Clyde said then throwing into the water. "Our rubber Rocket raft!" "That's some lifesaver!" Jessie smiled. "Like me," Clyde smirked. "Wobbuff. Wobuffet!" Then all nine members got on the raft. "Keep your powder dry, Pikachu!" Clyde shouted. "You'll be ours in no time!" "I can hardly breathe!" Adagio mentioned given the raft's small size. "So it's a little small," Cylde pointed out it! "Deal with it." "Concentre on finding Pikachu!" Duke shouted as all of them started to look. "Look Pikachu alert!" Aria alerted everyone that Pikachu holding to a tree as floated past it. "Wait!" Aria shrieked. "Stop this bathtub! We floated right past!" "Strong current, eh. Captain?" James asked Clyde. "Aye aye matey," He shot back. Inkay grabs everyone's attention but in time as their raft got popped and they were out of sight. Pikachu carried Dedenne while out of the river then the Dedenne had suddenly collapsed. A Fletchling came by knowing that was Ash's Pikachu signal it that he was okay. Moments Later Ash and the others came by. "I was so worried about you, buddy!" Ash said being concerned for his friend. Pikachu pointed at the collapsed Dedenne. "Dedenne?" Bonnie said in concern. Pokémon Brian Teaser #4 This Pokémon can By emitting radio waves from its antenna-shaped whiskers, it can communicate with far-off allies Answer: Dedenne "Oh, my godeness," Fluttershy gasped. "Is it okay?" "Now what are going to do?" Bonnie asked. "I'm scared." "What about the Pokémon Center?" Twilight asked. "The closest one is about eight miles from here," Jaden replied. "I think we should treat Dedenne right here," Clemont suggested. "Let's give it some electricity!" "Electricity?" Fluttershy asked. "How do we do that?" Ash also wondered. "Just leave it to me," Clemont smiled. "Remember the future is now thanks to science!" "Clemontic Gear, on!" He pulled another invention. "I've got the perfect machine for a situation like this! Presenting my electricity generator!" Ash, Pikachu, and Twilight were amazed by this. "Another boring name," Bonnie sighed due to her brother's limited imagination. "Now observe," Clemont explain as grab the plastic clipboard. "If you put a plastic clipboard under your arm and rub like this..." He rubs the plastic clipboard under and placed it under Bonnie's head which caused her hair to straight-up making her smile. "...the resulting friction causes the build of electrons and creates static electricity, see?" Clemont explained. "This machine uses the same principle, which is to create a massive electrical charge!" He places Dedenne at the output of the machine. "And power... on!" The machine started to the plastic clipboard faster and faster in result creating a massive charge of electrically. "Do you see the electrically?" Clemont asked. "Science is amazing," Ash said being excited. "Are you sure this is safe?" Twilight asked him. "Sure, I'm sure!" Clemont reassured her. "Just watch." The generator managed to produce a small charge of electricity which cause Dedenne to twitch a bit then woke up feeling fine. "Great," Jaden said seeing that Dedenne recover. "I think you can turn it off now!" "One problem," Clemont a piece of his device. "I can't!" Everyone screamed as it was on overload. "Dedenne, get away, quick!" Bonnie urged it to get out of there. "You've gotta stop that thing!" Ash requested. "I wish I knew how!" Clemont said having no idea then it exploded. "Oopsie, I guess it's back to the drawing board," Clemont said. "Yeah," Bonnie agreed. "Look at my hair." Dedenne appeared as well Rotom. "Well Dedenne is feeling fine," Jaden said. "That's what counts," Clemont follows it up. "All's well that end well!" "Dedenne, I'm glad you're feeling all better now, " Bonnie said then it turned around and thank Clemont. "I think it's saying thanks for the electricity," Jaden pointed it out. "Come on. you don't have to thank me," Clemont smiled then Bonnie remembered something. "Clemont, Clemont! Catch it, Catch it!" Bonnie got up urged her brother. "Hey, that's right," Clemont realized. "I totally forgot about doing that!" "Holding it right there!" Hearing Adagio's voice. Then all of them looked to see Team Rocket's balloon. "Now prepare for trouble," Adagio declared. " The 'it' means you!" "You hoo!" Duke greeted them. "Meanwhile we'll just take Pikachu," James said. "Giving it to the Boss is the least we can do," Sonata smirked. "By the way," Clyde mentioned. "If you're thinking of running, you've got another thing coming!" "Wait, a second," Twilight got something. "This whole thing was all your fault the whole time!" "Why are you guys always mean to Pokémon?" Fluttershy furiously asked. "I make you sorry you said that," Aria and James threw out their Pokéballs. "Inkay, come on!" "You too, Croagunk!" Both Inkay and Croagunk appeared ready to fight. Dedenne got out in front and Rotom appeared in front of Fluttershy. "Dendenne!" "Rotom, Rotom!" "Dedenne you want to battle don't you?" Clemont asks it. "So you can get back at them for what did!" "Rotom?" Fluttershy asked. "Do you want me to battle side by side?" Both of them nodded. "Great! Dedenne use Tackle on Inkay!" "Rotom, Use Shadow Ball on Croagunk!" Dedenne started to run at Inkay while Rotom launch a Shadow Ball at Croagunk. "Inkay use Foul Play! "Dodge it, Croagunk!" Inkay grabbed Dedenne threw on the ground and Croagunk dodged the Shadow Ball. "Now Inkay, Psybeam, go!" "Croagunk, use Poison Sting!" Inkay charged and used Psybeam at Dedenne while Croagunk used Poison Sting on Rotom. Both of them dodged the attacks. "Tackle, one more time! Rotom use Light Screen!" Rotom form a shield blocking the Psybeam and Poison Sting, Dedenne came with a full-body tackle, at Inkay then Croagunk both of them started to lose their ground. "You during great. All right, now use Nuzzle! Dedenne rubs its cheeks and slammed on both causing them to feel the electricity on their bodies. "Wow!" Bonnie was surprised. "That move's so cute, I like Dedenne even more!" "Not only that, Nuzzle gives a paralysis effect on other Pokémon," Clemont mentioned. "No way," Bonnie didn't know. "Dedenne, way to go!" Ash said. "Ah, Inkay," James worried. "Croagunk hangs in there," Aria screamed. Then Pikachu came in. "Pikachu, you use Thunderbolt!" "Dedenne, use Thunder Shock! "Rotom, Thunder!" All three of them launched massive blasts of electricity at the pazlyed Pokémon, both Inkay and Croagunk went flying into Team Rocket's Balloon then it explode. "We're blasting off again!" Team Rocket screamed as they disappeared out of sight leaving a white flash. "Pikachu, Dedenne, and Rotom, awesome!" Ash praised. "Dedenne you were great!" Bonnie said. "Thank you, guys!" Jaden was, please. Dedenne and Rotom gave to zap to Pikachu and zap them right back. "Dedenne and Rotom really want to come with us?" Ash asked. "Yeah, really?" Bonnie asked. "Yippee! We'll have so much fun! You'll see!" "Pretty please?" "Yeah, now it's time! Go Pokéball!" Clemont threw one and Fluttershy did the same. Both of the Pokéballs captured both of them it started to shake for while then it stopped. "I did it!" Clemont exclaimed. "Alright," Fluttershy happily said. "Hey, can you let Dedenne come out?" Bonnie asked. "I wanna take of it!" "Sure!" Clemont agreed. "I do it right now!" Clemont let Dedenne come out. "Dedenne! Yay!" Bonnie carried her. "Hi there, I'm Bonnie, and that's my brother Clemont! That Pikachu, Ash, Jaden, Twilight, and Fluttershy." "Nice to meet you!" Twilight said. Here let me get you cleaned up." Bonnie cleaned it up. "You got yourself all dirty from battle." Bonnie cleaned its tail which made Dedenne feel happy. "Hey look! Dedenne likes it when I pet its tail, too!" "Wow!" Twilight said. "I never would have guessed! "You're gonna have fun with Dedenne, aren't you? Ash asked. "Yeah," Bonnie replied. "Dedenne is so cute!" Nuzzle, nuzzle, nuzzle." By accident, Bonnie was shocked by the Nuzzle. "Nuzzle's one Dedenne's moves," Clemont said. "I guess you forgot." "Yup," Bonnie said sluggishly. "And now I can feel what's it's like to be paralyzed." Then Dedenne fell asleep. "Of course!" Jaden explained. "Dedenne tends to fall asleep a lot. That's one of the things they do to conserve their energy." "Awesome!" Ash said. "An energy saver!" "Okay you can take a nap in here," Bonnie placed Dedenne in her pouch then smile. "So let's go!" "Let's hit the road!" "Yeah!" Bonnie shouted then everyone shushed each other and laughed a bit. And so, after escaping Team Rocket's evil clutches, Pikachu, Deddene, and Rotom are safe, and Dedenne's perfect health! Following Clemont and Fluttershy's successful catch, our heroes now have two new friends in Dedenne and Rotom as Ash's first gym battle in Kalos comes closer. Meanwhile, Serena, Rarity, and Applejack have made it to the forest as the sun was setting down. "This is terrible..." Serena sadly said. "The sun's setting and we're still in the middle of the woods." "Well, that means we can sleep under stars," Applejack said since she was more of an outdoor type. "As in sleeping out in the open," Rarity gave it some thought as Serena turned around a saw some Pokémon. "Uh, no offense, AJ," Serena sheepily said. "Roughing it's not my style. If we could find a Pokémon Center, there's no doubt we'd able to stay there, but I don't know where it is... Serena looked around saw somebody and went up to it to ask where is the Pokémon Center but it turns out to be a Vespiquen who startled her and others. Then Beehive Pokémon fired a Confuse Ray. Fennekin jumped in and used Ember countered the Confuse Ray. Then it fled. The Fox Pokémon gave both Serena and Applejack their hats. "Thanks, Fennekin!" Serena thanked her Pokémon. "You saved us!" "Fenne!" "Is everything okay?" They heard Nurse Joy's voice as she and Nurse Redheart and Wigglytuff came by. "I just heard somebody screaming!" "We're okay."Rarity reassured them. "We're all were startled by a Pokémon." "We understand," Nurse Redheart said. "But are all of you are all right?" "We're mighty fine," Applejack said. "Could you tell us if there's Pokémon Center around here, please?" "Yes!" Nurse Joy responded. "It's located up ahead." "Thank goodness," Rarity was relived. "Well ladies, look we're staying at the Pokémon Center." "I have an idea let's a race to see who gets there first!" Applejack suggested. "You're on!" Serena shouted.

Chapter 5-The Santalune Gym! A Photo Perfect Battle!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 5-The Santalune Gym! A Photo Perfect Battle!Picking up from where we left off, Serena, Rarity, and Applejack along with their Pokémon were enjoying a nice at the Pokémon Center in the middle of the woods. "My word, it is a fine morning," Rarity happily said. "I know, no early Rhyhorn Race practice for me, and no Fletching waking me up," Serena replied. "Such a relaxing way to start the day." Serena started to stretch and Fennekin did the same which stumble a bit. "Fennekin did you get enough?" Serena asked the Fox Pokémon. "Fennekin!" "I did, too!" Serena responded. "Well, we best get a move on," Applejack said, "Good idea," Serena agreed. The ladies grabbed belongings and said their goodbyes and exited out of the Pokémon Center and into the forest. "How long til get to Santalune City?" Rarity asked. "Not far," Serena answered her. "In fact, it's really close just a bit further and I'll finally get to see him!" "Who's him?" Rarity asked. "That Ash fellow," Applejack implied. Meanwhile, heroes have made it to the Santalune Gym and met Alexa's younger sister, Viola the Gym Leader who just happens to be an excellent photographer. "Wow, you took all of these pictures, Viola?" Ash asked. "Uh-huh, although. these are just a few of the pictures I've taken," Viola replied. "She's quite a talent for photographing Bug types!" Alexa exclaimed. "She even helps me out with my reporting from time to time." "This is great work!" Fluttershy exclaimed. "It really captures the love you have for your subjects!" "Sure does," Bonnie chimed. "You can see how much you care about Bug Types!" "So, shall we Ash?" Viola asked. "How about that battle?" "Great!" Ash agreed. Meanwhile. Serena, Rarity, and Applejack have made it to Santalune City. "Just think," Serena told them. "He's gonna be so surprised after this time!" "Make me wonder how he'll react when he sees you?" Applejack asked. "Well, I for one can't wait to find out," Rarity said. Heading back to Santalune Gym Both Ash and Viola were standing on opposite sides of the battlefield. With Clemont, Bonnie,, Jaden, Twilight, Fluttershy, and Alexa were in the peanut gallery. The Gym Battle between Ash, the challenger, and Viola, the Santalune Gym, will now begin! This will be a 2 on 2 elimination series and the battle will be over when either Trainer's Pokémon cannot battle! Only the challenger may substitute Pokémon! "My lens is always focused on victory no matter what!" Viola said. "Surskit, go!" Surskit appeared out ready to battle. "A Surskit, huh?" Ash said as he took out his Pokédex and scanned it. Surskit, The Pond Skater Pokémon. Surskit can walk on water as if was skating. It attracts prey with the sweet aroma it produces. "My first Kalos Gym Battle! And I'm gonna start it off with Pikachu!" Ash exclaimed. "Pika," "No, surprise that he'll Pikachu to kick things off," Twilight said. "Especially, since Pikachu has a huge advantage over Surskit, who's a Bug and Water-types," Clemont explained. Now Battle Begin! Ash vs Viola 2v2 Elimation Battle "Pikachu let's start this with Quick Attack!" Pikachu lunges at Surskit with serious speed! "Quick, use Protect!" Surskit used Protect and stop Pikachu's Quick Attack! "Go around Surskit and use Iron Tail!" "Surskit, dodge it!' Pikachu went around Surskit and use Iron Tail but it was missed as Surskit skated from the attack! "Focus, Pikachu. Use Electro Ball and stop it!" Pikachu jumped up and hurled an electric ball at Surksit! "Surskit, use Ice Beam!" Surskit fired Ice Beam to null the Electro Ball. "My sister's very strong," Alexa explained. "Defeating her is no easy task!" "This is where it begins, use Ice Beam on the field!" Surskit uses Ice Beam on the battlefield making it look like an Ice rink! "Sweet Celestia," Twilight was shocked. "The battlefield is frozen!" "Our ice battlefield's picture-perfect. Surksit, let's go!" "Hang in there, use Iron Tail." Surskit came in close allowing Pikachu to deliver a vicious Iron Tail that knock Surskit off balance! "Pull it together, and Ice Beam!" "Now Pikachu, Use Thunderbolt!" Both the Thunderbolt and Ice Beam clashed but it overpower and send the Electic Mouse to the ground! "Yes! Now use Signal Beam" Surskit fired a flashing light at Pikachu who couldn't dodge it. As the smoke clears, Pikachu had swirled eyes. Pikachu cannot battle! Surskit is the winner! "You did your best buddy, that's all I could ask for!" "Your Pikachu is well trained but it had long before it can beat Surskit." "I'll beat it now, will this Pokémon! Flecthling, let's go!" "Fletchling!" "Nice choice," Jaden said. "Since it can fly the frozen ground won't do a thing! And Flying-type Pokémon are super effective against Bug-types!" Then the door opened up and revealed to be Serena, Rarity, and Applejack. "Can I help you?" Alexa asked the trio. "We were wondering if it would be okay if we watched them battle?" Applejack asked. "Of course, that would be just fine, welcome," Alexa said. "Why don't you join us over here?" Clemont suggested. "Yeah, it's getting really good!" Bonnie said. "That's so nice of you, thanks!" Rarity thanked them. Back to the battle.., "Okay Fletchling, Peck, let's go!" "Quick, dodge!" Flecthling came down really fast and used Peck, but Surskit dodged it. "Now Ice Beam," Surskit fired an icy-cold beam of energy at the Tiny Robin Pokémon. "Dodge it," Fletchling avoided it with it awesome flying. "Awesome," As Serena and Rarity were shocked. "Sticky Web, go!" "Use Double Team!" Flecthling creates illusory copies of itself and Surskit weaves a sticky net and fired but it only hit the copies! "It dodged them all," Applejack exclaimed. "All right, attack!" Bonnie cheered. "Now Fletchling use Razor Wind!" Fletchling unveil blades of wind which made direct contact at Surskit who was dazed in the aftermath. Surskit cannot battle.

It has been said that you'll find a spring if you follow a Vivillon. "All right Fletchling, Peck!" Fletchling came down and glowed its beak! "Vivillion, use Psychic!" The Scale Pokémon created a strong telekinetic force stoping Fletchling in its tracks! "Since I made, an Ice battlefield, I want you to experience what's it all about!" Fletchling got slammed to the icy ground. But it was okay as Fletchling was flapping its wings. "All right!" "Use Gust!" Vivillon created a gust of wind that knocked Fletchling off balance and into the Sticky Web that Surksit made! "It's stuck in that Sticky Web!" Twilight exclaimed. "Oh snap," Jaden said. "Break free! You can do it, Flecthling!" Fletchling struggled to get free! "A picture-perfect opportunity! Vivillon, Solar Beam!" Vivillon gathers light, then blasts a bundled beam at Fletchling! Fletchling fell down being knocked out! Fletchling cannot battle. With a score of 2-1 Viola, the Gym Leader wins! "Thank you, Vivillon," Viola returned it to its Pokéball. "Fletchling are you okay?" Ash asked. "Ling," The Flying-type responded weakly. "Ash!" As everyone expect Serena, Rarity and Applejack went down to the battlefield with Fluttershy holding Pikachu in her arms. "We need to get them both, to the Pokémon Center," Fluttershy said. "That battle put them through a lot!" "I know I lost," Ash said. "But I'll come back here stronger! When I do, I hope you'll let me have a rematch." "I'll look forward to it!" Viola nodded. "Come back anytime!" "Let's go!" Ash said as the others run to the Pokémon Center passing Serena, Applejack, and Rarity. "Is that,,," Applejack said as she saw Ash's bag. At the Pokémon Center. "Nurse Joy, Nurse Redheart," Ash requested. "Please take care of my Pokémon!" Wigglytuff carried both Pikachu and Fletchling on the cart and into the Infirmary room. "Don't worry, Ash," Nurse Joy reassured him. "They'll be all better in no time," Nurse Redheart said. Meanwhile behind the Pokémon Center. "Here you guys," Jaden said as he handed out Pokémon food to the Pokémon. "Eat up!" The Pokémon cheered happily as they ate, "Wow, I have never seen so many appetites," Twilight exclaimed, "They must have been really hungry!" Clemont added then looked at Ash who looked on the ground. "Viola totally beat me! Man is she strong!" Ash thought to himself then clenched his fist. "Pikachu and Fletchling weren't able to show their strengths at all. If 's that way it gotta be I can't win, no matter how many times I try. What do I do?!" "Uh, excuse me," Applejack's made Ash snap out his thought. "I think this is yours." "Guess I forgot it," Ash realized that left his bag. "Wow, you're those girls from before!" Bonnie exclaimed. "They were was standing with us during your battle," Jaden said. "My name's Bonnie, and this big brother!" "I'm Clemont," "Fluttershy," "Twilight Sparkle," "Jaden," "And say hello to Dedenne." "It's nice to meet all of you!" "Well, what do you know," Ash said being somewhat clueless. "Sorry I was so busy battling, I didn't see you three." "Oh, that's okay," Serena was not bothered with it. "My name is Ash!" "Yeah, I know. Serena's my name." "I'm Rarity," "Applejack," Then the Pokémon Center started to chime. "Thank you," Nurse Redheart bow down. "Your Pikachu and Fletchling are now fully recovered and feeling fine!" Nurse Joy said showing that Pikachu and Fletchling were feeling a lot better. "Ling!" Fletchling flapped its wings. "Pika!" Pikachu climbed to the top of Ash's head. "That's great," Ash was pleased. "Thank you, Nurse Joy, Nurse Redheart! "It's our pleasure!" Both said happily. "Wigglytuff!" "Guys, this Serena, Rarity, and Applejack," Ash introduced them to his Pokémon. "They were with Clemont and the others watching us battle." "Hi, you two, nice to meet you," Serena greeted. "The pleasure all yours," Rarity replied. "Howdy," Applejack said. "I just wondered something didn't we just see you two on Route 4?" Serena thought. "Allowing me," Jaden said as pulled up a picture. "These are all the Nurse Joys and Nurse Redhearts throughout the Kalos Region!" "Incredible!" Rarity exclaimed. "Oh right, I was hoping you'll look at our Pokémon, too." Serena called out Fennekin, Rarity called Chimchar, and Applejack called out Treecko. "Fennekin!" "Chimchar!" "Tree," "Wow, a Treecko, and Chimchar, but I have never seen that Pokémon," Twilight said see pulls Pokédex. Fennekin, The Fox Pokémon. Fennekin expels hot air that can reach nearly 400 degrees, It likes to snack on twigs. "So that means it's a Fire-Type Pokémon," Twilight asked. "And so cute," Bonnie said. "Yeah, I got it from Professor Sycamore." "Professor Sycamore huh?" Ash asked. "You see," Clemont explained. "Fennekin is one of three Pokémon that new Trainers may choose from. Therefore, I can deduce that you and others are new Trainers!" "Right!" All three of them agree. "We'll be glad to look at them," Nurse Redheart said. "Please wait right here as run a thorough exam." "Thanks," All thanked them as Alexa walked in. "It looks like Pikachu and Fletchling are fully recovered," Alexa said. "Let me guess: you're going to start training right away!" "Of course I am," Ash declared. "You wanna help me out?" Later both Alexa and Ash were on the opposite sides of the battlefield. 'You see, Noivern can use Gust too!" Alexa said. "Noivern, let's go!" Then Noivern appeared and took flight. "One of our problems with Viola was we could get past Vivillon's Gust," Ash said to his Pokémon. "So let's try to keep our balance!" "Heads up you two!" Both Pikachu and Fletchling nodded. "Go ahead Alexa," Ash gave her the okay. "Noivern, use Gust!" Noivern, whipped a gust of wind making Pikachu and Fletchling braced for it but they lost their ground and got swept away, but Ash managed to catch them. "Are you two okay?" Ash asked which returned the Pokémon nodded. "I'm here for you too, so don't worry and focus on training!" "Have it used Gust again, please?" "All right, but get ready, Use Gust one more time!" Noivern one again use Gust! "We've gotta be able to deal with Gust!" Ash thought to himself. "Just hang in there," Twilight said. "I know you can do it!" Bonnie yelled. But both Pikachu and Fletchling were caught by Ash again. "Vivillon's Gust isn't the only thing we have to deal with. There's Surskit's Ice Beam and Sticky Web too. How are we gonna do it? With Ash losing to Viola Will he be able to come up with a strategy to defeat her and win his first Kalos region Gym Badge? As the journey continues Back at the Satnalune Gym, Viola has lost a battle to a trainer. The trainer had a golden skin, aquamarine eyes, and red-and-yellow hair.

Her Pokémon was Riolu, Eevee, and Quilava. She put the badge in her case showing all eight of them. "Here you go miss," Viola said as she hand a badge. "Proof of beating the Satnalune Gym.

"Oh by way, if you have the chance you should stick around for my rematch against a trainer who was first to challenge me," Viola requested. "Sure," The trainer said. "What's his name?" "His name is Ash," Viola said. ...

Now, following a healing visit to Pokémon Center, Ash has begun preparing for a rematch, with assistance provided by Alexa. ""Vivillon's Gust isn't the only thing we have to deal with. There's Surskit's Ice Beam and Sticky Web too. How are we gonna do it?" Ash thought to himself. "Ash?" Serena grabbed his attention then handed him a cloth. "Here, use this." "Thanks," Ash grabbed it. "Here we go," Serena said to herself. "Ash, do you...remember me? Think back to when you to camp in Pallet Town. I did too! That's where we met." "At camp?" "That's right we met at Professor Oak's Pokémon Summer Camp!" "Hey, I remember that camp!" "You really do?" "Of course, I want to it!" "I know, and that's because I went to that camp as well!" "Can't say I remember you." "Oh, no!" "Well didn't go quite as planned," Rarity said upon Seren's disappointment. "That's okay, Rarity!" Serena said to her. "For Ash needs to concentrate on his training!" "I've gotta say, Pokémon battles are amazing!" Rarity exclaimed. "Especially if person!" "You saw mine?" Ash asked her. "Then you know what a total rotten mess I made of it." "A mess?" Applejack came in. "I don't think so! You were awesome! In fact, I remember what you said: You never give up until the end! You're obviously not giving up!" "I haven't changed have I!" Ash hears Applejack out then started to laugh. "I'm giving up. that wouldn't be me at all. Thanks, you three are a big help!" "Alexa, can we have another battle, please?" "Okay!" Alexa agreed. "It's not like me to get all down myself," Ash stated. "I can fix this by not giving up!" "Ready to go?" Alexa asked as Noivern was on ground level and Pikachu and Fletchling got in their battle stance. "Noivern use Gust!" Noivern whipped up a gust of wind at Pikachu and Fletchling who both braced it. "Stay strong, don't give up! Get your footing, Pikachu! And Flecthling, keep your balance! Pikachu planted his tail on the ground. "All right!" Twilight exclaimed. "Pikachu's using its tail!" "Great! In that position, Pikachu should be able to keep its footing." Jaden explained. Then Fletchling spread its wings! "Wow, look at that!" Fluttershy was amazed by Fletchling." Fletchling's flying lots better now, too!" "How is that possible?" Bonnie asked. "It's adjusting the angle of its tail feathers to the airflow around it!" Clemont explained. "Now Pikachu, use Thunderbolt! Fletchling, Razor Wind!" Pikachu sends a long electric blast, while Fletchling sends blades of winds! "Noivern, dodge it!" Noivern flew up and avoided the attacks. "Awesome! Looking good you two!" "Looks like you're getting the hang of it. But I'm not finished yet! Use Gust, again!" Hours of training later... "Wow, Alexa," Ash said while his Pokémon were exhausted. "That was some really helpful training! Thank you for everything." "Save your thanks until after you defeat my sister and win your first Kalos Gym badge." Alexa reminded him. "Right! I'll do my best!" In the Pokémon Center. "We've got a good defense against Gust now!" Ash said. "So that means, uh... now you just need to be figured out the ice battlefield, Sticky Web and Psychic!" Bonnie brought it up. "I've already figured out how to deal with ice battlefield," Ash told her. "Yeah what're you gonna do?" "You'll find out during the battle." "That's no fun!" Bonnie pouted then ate a slice of cake. "Of course keeping the plans in the dark," Twilight smiled. "Classic Ash." "Well as far as handling Sticky Web, you just leave that me," Clemont said. "Yes, all right," Ash agreed. "Pikachu and Fletchling, it's back to training we eat!" The Pokémon cheered happily as faces were stuffed. Later that night.,, "Allow me to help you with your training using the best of my scientific skills," Clemont explained. "Remember, the future is now thanks to science and the power of technology!" "Clemontic Gear, on!" Clemont pulls on a white sheet revealing another machine. "I invented this device in anticipation of the very situation Ash is now in. I call it the Sticky Web Sticky-Wicket Wacker Wonk!" "Huh?" Serena, Rarity, Bonnie, and Applejack were confused. "Science is so amazing!" Ash exclaimed. "I've analyzed Sticky Web's composition at the DNA level, and this device is able to replicate its stickiness, color, aroma, and nutritional value to a tee. I'm sure patent approval is right around the corner." "Well, I really don't know what you're talking about, but thanks, Clemont!" "So let's get started! Lock-on target and... fire!" The machine started firing the Sticky Web! "Dodge it!" Pikachu jumped and Fletchling flew, then Pikachu touched it and got stuck! "He's right, it's the same as Sticky Web!" Jaden explained. "This is what I call training with science! Keep it up!" It still kept firing but Pikachu and Flecthling were still dodging. "Hey, you're both looking great!" "Not bad, but you haven't experienced my device at full power! Maximum level and fire!" Clemont pulled the level but the machine fired up and the Sticky Web covered the cannon then explode. "My hair it's ruined!" Rarity said. "Should've seen that coming," Twilight said. "Why, why?" Clemont said with defeat. "I've got a better idea," Ash suggested. "All right, Froakie, I choose you!" Froakie appeared. "If you attack us with your Frubbles, it'll be like getinng attacked with Sticky Web!" Ash explained. Froakie throw his Frubbles at them "Quick you guys dodged it!" Pikachu and Fletchling dodged the Frubbles! "Wow, what a clever way to use Frubbles," Clemont said. "Yeah, keep it up!" Bonnie cheered. "Now concentrate and speed up!" Froakie throw his Frubbles faster and faster and Pikachu and Fletchling kept dodging! "Show me that spirit!" "I didn't know Ash had a Froakie too!" Applejack said shockingly. "That Froakie's from Professor Sycamore's research lab," Fluttershy said. "Just like my Fennekin!" Serena exclaimed. "I think we're gonna be just fine! So, let's call it a day!" Ash said putting a halt on training. "Go team, go," Bonnie started to feel sluggish. "I know you can do it, you're awesome." "Bonnie, I think it's bedtime," Clemont suggested. "You were great," "Yeah, weren't they? Let's go!" Clemont grabbed her younger sister's hand. "I'm going to tuck Bonnie into bed." "Right, thanks for staying up so late and helping me out," Ash thanked him. "Well, we all worked on everything we could," Ash talked to his Pokémon. "All that's left is to battle Viola as hard we can. So let's give it all we've got!" "It's amazing how hard trainers and their Pokémon work! It takes an awful lot of time and effort to earn yourself a gym badge, doesn't it?" Serena exclaimed. "You'll be training like this in no time!" Ash explained. "Soon you're gonna hit the road and some more Pokémon, so you can challenge the Pokémon Gyms, right?" "I guess so," Serena said softly. "I know I have Fennekin, but I'm not sure what my next step will be." "Gotcha," Ash understand. "So take your time and you'll know what to do." "I will thank you," Serena said.

"Nope," Jaden said. "It just got started. What's brings you here?" "Not much, Viola said that she was going to have a rematch with a trainer who she beat," She responded. "Is that him?" "Yeah, his name is Ash," Jaden said. "What's your name?" "Sunset Shimmer," saying her name. "What are your names?" "My name is Jaden."

"Don't let it use Ice Beam!" Surskit tried to use Ice Beam but Pikachu got on top of it! "Stay on it use Thunderbolt!" "Shake it loose and use Ice Beam!"

Ash requested. "PIka!" 'Yeah, that'll be fun!" Bonnie said cheerfully. "Come with us, we'll have a great time!" "Yeah!" Twilight smiled. "Sounds like an excellent idea to me." "Thanks to you guys, I came up with my Santalune Gym strategy," Ash said. "And if you could help me out a bit from here on it would be great." "How I can say no to all of that!" Serena winked. "I'm in!" "Count me in!" Applejack replied. "Of course, the more the merrier!" Rarity exclaimed. "Sure, traveling together is a lot of fun!" Sunset said. "That's the spirit," Fluttershy said. "So Jaden how do we get to Cyllage City?" "That simple," Jaden pulled his map. "We here, but Lumiose City is between us, and Cyllage City to get there we need to go back to Lumiose City before we get to Cyllage City!" "Yeah, that makes sense!" Twilight said. "There's a boutique in Lumiose City with the cutest clothes!" Serena exclaimed. "And awesome bakery that has the best pastries you ever tasted! Bonnie started to drool after hearing the word bakery. "What are we waiting for ?" Serena started to run. "Let's go!" "Yippee!" Bonnie started to run as well. Then Ash, Rarity, Applejack, Jaden, and Sunset did as well. "Clemont, step on it!" Jaden urged to pick up the pace. "I'm doing my best," Clemont running as hard as he can. ... ... Just as our heroes walking, they all heard a strange noise. "Does anyone else hear that?" Fluttershy said as the noise got closer. Then suddenly three people riding on Rhyhorn came out of nowhere. Luckily our heroes dodged it. "What Pokémon is that!?" Rarity asked as she pulls out her Pokédex. Rhyhorn, the Spikes Pokémon. Rhyhorn recklessly charges straight ahead, trampling over anything that gets in its way? "What in tarnation was that all about?" Applejack asked. "It's a Rhyhorn Race," Serena said. "Race?" Twilight asked then Officer Jenny approach them on her motorcycle. "What do you all think you're doing?" She asked them. "You're not supposed to be here! You're standing right in the middle of the Rhyhorn racecourse!" "The Rhyhorn racecourse?" Fluttershy gasped.

"Wow, a Rhyhorn race!" Ash exclaimed. "Never seen one before!" "Rhyhorn races are really popular in the Kalos region," Jaden stated. "This is so awesome," Twilight said then realized something. "Say where's Fluttershy?" "She right over there," Bonnie pointed in that direction where Fluttershy was talking to somebody, one of them was a girl with cyan skin, with rainbow hair and magenta eyes. She had on a white shirt with a cloud with a rainbow bolt coming out of it, on top of was a blue jacket. Her Pokémon was a Crobat, Ninjask, Jolteon. and Swellow.

"And I'm Zane," Saying his name. "And you're are?" "I'm Bonnie and this is Twilight," Bonnie said their names. "Pleasure to meet you," Zane said then Ash and the others came by. "And these our friends, Ash, Serena, Clemont, Jaden, Sunset, Applejack, and Rarity," Bonnie introduced the rest of them. "Man, who knew Rhyhorn can use for racing," Rarity exclaimed. "They even had specialRhyhorn tracks in bigger cities," Serena told Rarity. "This course is actually kind of easy." "Really," Twilight turned to Serena. "You sure know a lot!" "Well I guess so, okay an official Rhyhorn race has six Rhyhorn, see?" "Wow!" "There's a special Rhyhorn race anyone can participate in tomorrow," Officer Jenny said. "If you guys are interested you might want to give that race a try!" "You mean it?" Ash asked her. "Great, I'm in!" "Count me in!" Rainbow joined in. As Ash and Rainbow prepare for the Rhyhorn Race, across the valley Team Rocket members Adagio, Sonata and Duke were overseeing them. "The twerp and the Pikachu," Adagio said while using her binoculars. "We've been looking for those two. "And they've got Rhyhorn racing on the brain," Duke mentioned. "And when got a Rhyhorn you've got something!" "Those Rhyhorn have a lot of power to spare," Adagio smirked. "And with reeling in a Rhyhorn and Pikachu is sure to earn us the Boss's seal of approval!" "Grade A!" Duke grinned. "Yeah!" Sonata smiled evilly. "Let's tell the others, and nabbed every last one!" Pokémon Brain Teaser #7 This Pokémon likes to snack on twigs! Answer: Fennnekin! Many hours later after a long day of training, everyone was sleeping except for one of them as Serena and Fennekin were in the kitchen making something. "Fennekin!" The Fox Pokémon asked her trainer. "We need to stay quiet!" Serena told it to keep it down. "Fennekin." "I hope they're out all right," Serena as she puts a treat of cookies in the oven. Morning Folks welcome the Rhyhorn race's final day, the day when any racer can join in! "Best of luck, to both of you!" Bonnie cheered on Ash and Rainbow Dash. "Thanks, I'll do my best," Ash said. "Not before you can eat my dust," Rainbow declared. On your marks, get set... go! The Rhyhorn racers shot out of the gate except for Ash but took as he was last place. "That's not a good start," Sunset said. "I hope he's okay," Twilight said being concerned. "Okay, now it's time to catch up and take the lead," Ash said. "Let's go!" A little time later both Rainbow and Ash were catching up with the other racers. "So, you managed to catch up with us Ash, but I going to win this thing." Said Rainbow. "As if!" Ash replied to her. Back to the sidelines, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, and the others along with the Pokémon watched the cameras, until all four of them went black. "Uh oh. We lost our live feed! Something must've happened on the course! But what!?" The MC announced also shocked by the blackout. Clemont got up and began to head to the course. "We should go investigate!" He suggested. Everyone else followed suit. Back with Ash and Rainbow… "That's weird what happened to the other racers?" Ash wondered. Pikachu went to Rhyhorn's horn to look around closely. Suddenly as if waring, Rainbow widened his eyes, giving Rhyhorn to signal to stop. "Rhyhorn! Ash! Stop!" Rainbow yelled. Ash grew startled while her Rhyhorn stopped completely being confused in the process. Just as Ash's Rhyhorn raced through, a glowing net flew into the air capturing Ash in a bind. He let out a yell as he was forced to ground by the net. "Pika Pi!" Pikachu called. Just then glowing box trapped Pikachu and Rhyhorn, turning into a cage. Both Rainbow and Ash gasped as she got off her Rhyhorn. As she got off, another net came by, this time toward Rainbow but she dodged it. "What is going on around here!?" Ash demanded. Suddenly as he turned he gasped. Rainbow also turned to see the other racers were tied up. "Misson accomplished!" They heard Aria's voice. "Who said that!?" Ash demanded. "Prepare for trouble, who do you think?" "And make it double, with a nod and a wink." "To protect the world from devastation!" "To unite all people within our nation!" "To denounce the evils of truth and love!" "To extend our reach to the stars above!" "Jessie!" "James!" "Adagio!" "Aria!" "Sonata!" "Duke!" "And Clyde!" "Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!" "Surrender now or prepare for a fight!" "Meowth, that's right!" "Wobbuffet!" "Murkrow!" Ash grew angry as Rainbow got confused. "Team Rocket? Who are they?" Rainbow asked. "Bad guys who steal other people's Pokémon!" He explained then turned to the bad guys. "You guys always try to mess everything up!" James sneered and took a remote. "Who cares? We win. You Lose." He presses the button which causes the cage that Pikachu and Rhyhorn to connect with the others. Meowth snickered as he leaped to the front car. "All aboard the Rhyhorn Express! Do we have Rhyhorn? Yes!" He sneered. Rainbow was surprised that Meowth talking but glared at the criminals. "Hold it! What do you plan on doing with them?" Aria glared at her. "For obvious reasons, to conquer the world! Along with Pikachu." James took out a Pokeball. "Inkay! Prepare for our escape!" James called, The Revolving Pokémon appeared and squirted ink at Rainbow's eyes. "Darn it! I can't see!' Rainbow grunted as she tried to rub the ink off her. "No! Rainbow!" Ash gasped as Team Rocket laughed. "Since you're all tied all up and blinded we bid you, farewell twerps!" Clyde cackled. "I want Pikachu back!" Ash demanded but was ignored. "You won't get away with this!" Rainbow snapped at them. "But we just did! Suck on that!" Adagio grinned. Just then as a miracle a Hyper Beam came out of nowhere and destroyed the engines. Meowth let out a yelp of surprise. Jessie and the others fell in a surprising call. "Ugh… Check, please…" Meowth grumbled as wiped the mind off his face, then a Gardevior appeared. Way to go!" Zane called. Team Rocket turned to see him, Clemont and Twilight panting. "Looks we made it in time!" Twilight said being relieved. "Clemont! Zane! Twilight! " Ash called in relief. Rainbow perked her head up to hear Clemont, as she kept on trying to the ink off her eyes. As she was doing that Jaden the girls and the Pokémon ran by. "Ash! Rainbow!" Serena called. "Are you two okay?" Bonnie asked. Swellow flew over to Rainbow as Ash smiled, "Serena! Bonnie! Fluttershy! Applejack! Rarity! Sunset! Jaden! Am I glad to see you!" Ash exclaimed. Swellow rubbed the rest of the ink with her wing off of Rainbow giving her sight back. "Thanks, buddy." Rainbow thanked. "Swell," Swellow replied with a nod, relieved that her trainer was okay. "I had a feeling something bad was happening, but I never imagined it would like this!" Jaden explained. Bonnie pouted as she saw the bad guys. " Bad is right, it's Team Rocket!" Bonnie shrieked angrily at them. Team Rocket got up recovering from the blow they had glaring at the group. "You're going regret saying that short stuff!" Aria snapped then Treecko appeared and both gave a glare at Team Rocket. At the same time, Fennekin nudged on Serena's leg. Both of them turned to see what they want. "Oh right! Pikachu and the others are in trouble, and you want to help them! Is that right?" Serena asked. "Same with you?" Applejack asked. Both Treecko and Fennekin nodded as they stand side by side glaring at Team Rocket. "Fennekin, Ember!" "Treecko, Engery Ball!" Fenekin fired a small flame and Treecko draws powers from nature and fire at Team Rocket All of them screamed as they felt the attacks from their back. As they panicked James accidentally drop the remote causing him and the others to gasp. Clemont took his chance to destroy it as he grabbed a rock and ran over. "For the future of science!" Clemont exclaimed as he smashed the remote causing all the cages to disappear. "Uh oh! This not good." Sonata said as Team Rocket corner by a heard of Rhyhorn. "Feels kind of drafty out here!" Jessie stuttered. "You're feeling the winds of wipeout!' James shuddered. "Hey relax! Getting upset is bad for our health!" Duke exclaimed. But, the Rhyhorn group ignored Duke and charged at them, smashing them into the air. Team Rocket let out a scream as they disappeared. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF INSTEAD!" As they were gone Officer Jenny came checking to make sure that everybody was okay. "I need everybody to keep the area clear! I'll be coming to you individually to get your statements later!" She called. Rainbow sighed. "I guess the race is over, then," Rainbow muttered. Ash let a grin and patted Rainbow's back. "We're calling this a tie okay?" Ash asked her. Rainbow smiled lightly and nodded. "Sure thing." Later at the Serena introduced everyone to her mom. "Nice to meet you! My name's Ash and this is my buddy, Pikachu!" Ash introduced himself and Pikachu. "Pika Pika!" Pikachu exclaimed. "I'm Twilight!" "Sunset," "Jaden!" "Zane," "Rainbow," "Fluttershy," "I'm Clemont! Hey there!" He called as Ash push him out of the way to see Serena's mom that's when Bonnie pushed him out of the way. "My name's Bonnie! This is Dedenne!" She exclaimed. Then Serena got into the screen, showing her mother her starter. "Take a look! Fennekin! You see, Fennekin is my new partner!" Serena exclaimed. "Nice to meet all of you!" Grace said. "Serena taught me how to do ride on Rhyhorn!" Ash told him. "You didn't have to tell her that did you?" Serena pouted. "Mom! Guess what? You see... I've decided I'm going to travel with Ash and all of his friends! Isn't that the best? Really?" "That's great! Have good time!" "Thanks!" "It will be a wonderful experience for you!" Very Munch Later "Sorry I took so long!" Serena said. "I'm going with you! Isn't that great?" "Sure is," Sunset replied. "We're going to have so many fun adventures!" Applejack said. "And we'll best friends!" Bonnie added. "Sure will!" Serena smiled. "Oh! That reminds me I made cookies for every!" "Awesome!" Ash exclaimed. "It's a small thank you!" Serena implied.

Chapter 8-Clemont's Got a Secret! Retake the Lumoise Gym!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 8-Clemont's Got a Secret! Retake the Lumoise Gym!"We made to Lumiose City!" Ash exclaimed as our heroes made it back. "The last we're here," Serena explained. "We didn't have time to look around." "Seeing this great city is the center of the fashion universe!" Rarity exclaimed. "Is everything to you two all is clothing?" Rainbow teased them. "There's more to more than clothes, Rainbow!" Both Rarity and Serena pouted and turn away. "Anyway," Jaden came in. "All the people are so well dressed." "And Prism Tower is just incredible!" Applejack commented,. "Yeah, it sure is," Clemont replied. "I guess it's okay," Bonnie agreed not sounding energetic making Sunset look at them with confusion. "What's up with you two? Aren't you glad to be home?" Sunset asked. Clemont shrugged and Bonnie along with Fluttershy turned away from the question making Sunset even more suspicious. "The Lumiose Gym is up on that tower!" Ash pointed out making Zane turn him. "Oh, so you already challenged that Gym, huh, Ash?" Zane asked. "Well, I showed up there and tried to..." Ash started. "Pika..." Pikachu agreed. Ash told Serena, Rarity, Applejack, Sunset, and Zane what happened made all of them being surprised, with Bonnie, Clemont, and Fluttershy being nervous. "That's what happened! I didn't have four badges, so I couldn't get in!" Ash explained while Pikachu nodded. "You serious? I only heard rumors, but I never knew it happened for real!" Rainbow admitted. "No way," Zane widen his eyes. "I had no idea their Gyms where needed four badges to challenge it!" Applejack admitted. Sunset and Rainbow noticed that both Clemont and Bonnie getting even more nervous! "Well since that's the case here... Why don't we get out of Lumiose City?" Clemont suggested. "Let's go!" Bonnie called then the two started to push the others. "But, I've been looking forward to exploring!" Rarity complained. "Hold on a tick," Applejack protested. "But, we've just got here!" "We can do that stuff next time!" Bonnie exclaimed. Before anyone else could make one step, there was a man's voice who let out a chuckle. "Well if it isn't Clemont, Bonnie!" The man chuckled. The siblings shook up, before seeing a man behind riding a scooter with an Ampharos. "Dad! Ampharous!" Clemont and Bonnie called out. The left Ash, Serena, Jaden, Sunset, Twilight, Rainbow. Applejack and Zane being bewildered. "Huh? Dad?" The others repeated. On their way to Cyallge City Our heroes have made a quick stop at Lumsioe City Clemont cleared his throat, before beginning the introduction. "Uh, let me introduce you.." Clemont but allowed his sister to explain. "I want you to meet our daddy!" Bonnie explained. "The siblings' father chucked waving to the group, "I'm Meyer. I run an electronic shop in the city here along with Ampharos!" Meyer explained while Ampharous chirped in happily. "You and Amphaos, cool!" Ash commented. "And these guys are brand new super nice friends!" "Pleasure to meet all of you!" Meyer exclaimed then turned to Clemont. "Now, you listen to me, son. You should come to the house once in a while!" "But, Dad... You see," Clemont started to explain. "What is there some reason you haven't been coming in a while?" Meyer asked. "Well... We've got some things to do! So, bye for now!" Bonnie quickly called as she laughed nervously. "Wait, Clemont..." Meyer called causing the two to stop to hear their dad. "I have told you this before. It's true you need to be tough on challengers, but that alone isn't going to make them better trainers! You need the Gym Leader the Lumiose Gym can be proud of!" Those words left Ash and the others specify Rainbow and Sunset asked each other. "Lumiose Gym?" Rainbow wondered. "Gym Leader?" Sunset wondered as well. "Well best be going, see you soon! As come by the shop once in a while!" Meyer called as he Ampharous drove away. As he was gone, Clemont and Bonnie turned nervously only Ash, Serena, Zane, Rainbow, Twilight, Jaden, Applejack, Rarity, and Sunset to all glare at them. "Alright! What's this all about!?" Ash snapped. "Well, the thing is..." Clemont trying to explain. "You might want to start by telling the truth," Applejack said. Clemont sighed agreeing with the farmer. At a nearby fountain, Clemont began to reveal his true identity. "The truth is I'm really am the Lumsoise Gym Leader," Clemont explained. "Why didn't you just us?" Rarity asked. "The thing is was planning to tell you eventually...It's a long story." Clemont told them that a built robot name Clembot take can take on his responsibilities so he can more time but with Clemont being Clemont, he unknowingly set the voice code and caused Clembot to kick them out. "And that's what happened," Clemont concluded. "So now can get back into your own gym?" Sunset asked. "I keep on trying but Clembot won't let anybody in without four gym badges and he's always out there on the battlefield." Clemont sighs as he looks down. At that moment Twilight gave a smile. "Hey. Why don't we go back there and see what we can do?" Twilight suggested. "Yeah!" Ash, Zane, Rarity, and Fluttershy agreed along. "It's better than doing nothing? Isn't it?" Applejack asked. "Sure," Clemont replied. So, the group headed toward the Gym, where they saw three boys grumbling about something. Clemont asked to see what was wrong. The boys explained in an angry tone about the Lumiose Gym Leader how their opponent was Clembot and after he won, he zapped one of them and was thrown out of there. causing them to leave never to challenge the Gym again." "Be tough alone, won't help Trainers get better," Clemont sighed. "Now I see what daddy was talking about!" Bonnie replied sadly and Dedenne did the same. "What will you do?" Jaden asked Clemont. Clemont began to think until Ash spoke up. "We know what to do! We'll just stop that crazy robot!" He exclaimed. "What he said." Rainbow grinned as she nodded. "That would make things easier for the challengers and for you, wouldn't it?" Sunset asked. "But how?" Fluttershy asked. "We can't do anything with the voice code." Bonne shrieked. "Now, Clemont try to relax and think carefully!" Rarity assured. "Even if I remember it, I would still have to defeat in battle!" Clemont protested then Sunset stepped up, "But you won't know unless you try!" Sunset reminded. "No way!" Clemont shot back at her. "Clembot will have all my Pokémon battle partners to battle with! I can't win with my inexperienced Bunnelby!" Clemont refused to believe it. Applejack's face darkened as she gritted her teeth. "Clemont. Look up at us for a second." Applejack asked darkly. Startled by the tone. Clemont got up, only to see a fist coming at him. THWACK! Clemont flinched as he fell to the ground by Applejack's punch. "Applejack!?" Rarity gasped. Ash, Rainbow, Twilight, Jaden, and Pikachu were speechless of what she did. Bonnie, Sunset, Serena, Zane, and Fluttershy shrieked in surprise. Rotom hid behind Fluttershy and Dedenne hid in her bag. Applejack grabbed him by the collar and pulled him by force. "So, you're going to give up? That's what only a pathic coward would do and that's coward is you if you don't believe in your current Pokémon right now! Sure, Bunnelby may be inexperienced, but win or lose, it won't matter! You could at least give your best shot!" Applejack snapped at him. Everyone around her was startled at what happened, as Clemont stayed speechless and shocked. Ash smiled and nodded to Applejack's words. "I don't know much about robots but you made Clemont...maybe you'll come to understand each other in battle!" Ash added. "PIka!" Applejack released him as he thought about it. "Battling Clembot... to understand each other," Clemont repeated. "Clemont, why did you become a Gym Leader in the first place?" "I'll do it!" Bonnie said. "In Lumiose City, my big brother is the Boy Genius of Electric Types!" "I wanted to be an Electric-type Trainer no one has ever seen! So, I became the Lumiose Gym leader! By using Electric Pokémon challengers would have to plan their strategies accordingly. I figured if I could win, despite the competition it would help me grow as an Electric-type trainer!" Clemont explained. "All the more reason why you need to get your gym back!" Rarity declared. "Huh?" Clemont looked at her with a puzzled looked. "She's right," Fluttershy called softy. "Taking back this Gym will help you grow stronger! And we'll help you out!" "Your right! Let's go see Clemon!" Clemont declared, "Right!" Everyone else agree then Bonnie tugged her brother's shoulder. "Hey, Clemont? Isn't awesome that Ash, Serena, and the others are here?" Bonnie asked. "Yeah!" Around Prism Tower, Clemont showed the others another way in. "If we can get to the battlefield, we might be recognized as challengers!" Clemont called as they used the secret entrance. Once they got inside Sunset called out Riolu from his Pokéball. "Riolu, use Rock Smash!" Sunset called. Riolu smashed the air vent entrance, allowing the others to go in. "Okay, follow me!" Clemont said. As everyone got out of the vent, they were closer to the battlefield. "We don't have much farther to get to the battlefield," Clemont said. But before anyone can move a Maganmite approached them! "That's my Pokémon!" Clemont claimed as he walk over to it. "Hey, Maganmite! It's me!" At first, Maganmite grew happy, but then it got angry a used Thundershock! The group yelled in surprise as they all ran to dodge the attack. "Come on, Magnmite! Stop!" Clemont pleaded but it was useless. "Why is it attacking us?" Rainbow exclaimed. "It's your Pokémon, isn't it?" "Yeah!" Clemont said while running. "But because Clembot is the Gym Leader, I guess it would've ordered Maganmite to stop all intruders!" "That's awful!" Rarity said. "No wonder!" Zane exclaimed. "Mind if I battle it?" "We have no choice," Clemont answered back. "Good! Come on out, Seviper, and use Flamethrower!" Zane threw his Pokéball. Seviper appeared and scorched Magamite with an intense blast of fire casusing Maganmite to be dazed. "Nice!" Zane praised Seviper. "Uh oh! A Mangton!" Rarity shouted. "Yeah, that Pokémon is mine!" Magneton shot a Metal Sound attack. Everyone covered their ears for this. "Fennekin! Help us out with Ember!" Serena called. "Corsola, Come out and use Power Gem!" Twilight did the same. Corsola and Fennekin shot their attacks only for Magneton to spilt itself up to dodge it!" "It dodges it!" Serena gasped. Magneton prepare to use Thunderbolt! "Swellow quick, use Hyper Beam!" Rainbow called for her partner. Swellow attacks Magneton with a powerful beam knocking it out!" "Thanks, Rainbow!" Serena thanks her. Later, everyone got out of the maze. heading into the battlefield. "Somehow we made it..." Clemont sighed then a light flashed on a familiar figure. Everyone turned to see Clemont's Gym Leader robot, Clembot. "Welcome to the Lumiose Gym." Clembot buzzed. "Clembot! It's you!" Clemont gasped. Pokémon Brain Teaser #8 What the move that is ok use while being frozen but still gives a burn status Answer: Flame Charge! After seeing his creation Clemont took a deep breath and called his robot. "Now Clembot! Active master recognition battle mode!" "First, voice code needed for approval!." Clembot explained. Clembot thought it over trying to remember. "Do it, Clemont!" Bonnie called while holding onto Serena. "Aren't there any clues on your robot that make it easier for you to remember?" Rarity asked. That ticked thought off as he remember when Clembot hit his head he last tripped, causing some damage. "Ah! The voice is 'You can start today! I'm Clemont the Gym Leader'!" Clemont answered. "Code recognized. Battle Mode activated!" Clembot replied. "Aright!" Clemont exclaimed. "Way to go!" Jaden congratulated, With that Ash and the others went to the sidelines to watch the battle. "Bunnebly, let's go!" Clemont called. Bunnebly appeared and was ready for battle. Clembot eyes flashed before making his decision. "I will use this Pokémon!" He shot a Pokéball from his arm and Heilolisk appeared and greeted Clemont. "Heilolisk?" Rarity asked, taking out her Pokédex. "That must be one of Clemont's Pokémon," Zane guessed. Heilioisk, the Generator Pokémon and evolved of Helioptile. Heliolisk produces enough electricity to power a large building and recharges by spearing its frills. Rarity's Pokédex buzzed. Clemont adjusted his glasses as he got ready. "My reputation as a Gym Leader is resting on this battle, Heliolisk, give it you're all!" The Generator Pokémon nodded and readied for battle. Clemobot vs Clemont 1v1 Heilolisk, Thunderbolt! Heilolisk shot a Thunderbolt at Bunnebly. "Just like what I programmed to! Bunnebly use your ears to defend!" Bunnebly created a cloud of dust to stopped the Thunderbolt causing it to explode, as the sidelines braced themselves. "My word!" Rarity exclaimed. "Impressive," Sunset and Serena were amazed. "Clemont did that back when I battled him!" Ash stated as the dust cleared, "Now Double Slap!" "Dragon Tail!" Both Pokémon charged at each other but Bunnebly blocked it and struck back sending Heliosk to the ground. "Dig!" Bunnebly went underground preparing for a surprise attack. "Use Bulldoze! Clemont gasped as Heilolisk stomped on the ground causing Bunnebly to pop up. "I never taught Heilolisk to use that move." "Clembot must have taught Heilolsik on its own," Twilight exclaimed. "What!?" Zane exclaimed. "Dragon Tail!" Heilolisk bounce back and slammed Bunnebly with Dragon Tail. "Bunnebly, are okay?" "Bunne!" Having Heilolisk using Bulldoze caught off guard! But the same thing will happen for them! "Now, use Double Team!" Bunnebly made copies of itself masking Heilolisk confused on which to attack. "Heilolisk is just standing there!" Jaden stated. "Please work," Fluttershy hoped as Rainbow widened her eyes as Clemont called out the next move. "Bunnebly, Mud Shot!" Rainbow stood up and called to her friend. "Call it off! You're being set up!" Rainbow yelled. And Rainbow was right has Clembot had another trick his metal sleeve. "Paraboilc Charge! Heliolisk opens its frills, and creates a shock discharge, shocking Bunnebly! "What kind of move is that!?" Twilight asked. "Parabolic Charge attacks all opponents in the area while restoring stamina at the same time," Zane pointed out. But Bunnebly was okay in the aftermath. "Use Thunderbolt!" Once again, Heliolsik used Thunderbolt and fire at Bunnerbly!" "Come Clemont! You have to win this!" Bonnie yelled in desperation. "Now, Bunnebly use Dig!" Bunnebly counterattacked by using Dig but Clembot was prepared. "Use Bulldoze!" "The same thing is happening all over again!" Serena exclaimed. "It's all finished now!" Bonnie pulled her hair. "Not it's not!" Rainbow glared at the two girls. "It's not over til it's over!" "Rainbow's right!" Twilight agreed with her. "Gym Leader Battling #5 states no Gym Leader never fall for the same tactic! Clemont you can do this!" "Don't give up until the end!" Ash shouted. Clemont replied with a nod. "Right! If there's one thing I learn from Ash, Rainbow, and Applejack, it's to think outside the box and not give up! Bunnebly use Double Team while underground!" Heilolisk used Bulldoze but this time clones of Bunnebly appeared and surrounded it. "Dig!" "Use Paraboiic Charge!" The same thing happen before only this time Bunnebly was nowhere to be found. "What happened?" Applejack asked. "All of them disappeared." "Poor Bunnebly," Bonnie replied sadly Just as Riolu and Pikachu tapped both Sunset and Ash's shoulder as both of them looked on the battlefield. "Yeah!" Ash exclaimed. "Looks they fell for it," Sunset smiled. Bunnebly was still underground, as it smashed Heliolisk into the air! "Error! Error!" "Let's finish this up! Bunnebly Mud Shot!" As Heliolisk was falling, Bunnebly was airborne and scored a direct hit. The Electric fell before fainting. "Pika!" "Rio!" "Look like it's all over!" Twilight exclaimed. "Bunnbley wins!" Fluttershy said. "Clemont was so great!" Bonnie giggled. "Oh, Heliolisk, are you okay?!" Clemont asked his Pokémon. "Lisk!" "Thank goodness!" Clemont sighed in relief the Clembot walked up. "I recognize you now, sir. Welcome back to the Lumsiose Gym." Clembot replied. "I'm to back Clembot," Clemont said. "Because of my faulty programming, I realize that I made a lot of trouble for you, too... I'm sorry." Then the robot only shakes its head. "I think I'll work on reprogramming you right now!" Clemon began to reprogram his robot. As everyone watched, Clemont told the robot the basic rules of a Pokémon Gym Leader, One; being modest to all trainers, Two; Be kind, but at the same time be tough on them and give constructive advice after the battle, and three; Help trainers to grow their skills!. "I've learned so much from all of you!" Clemont said looking at his robot and friends. "And I want to keep on learning right Clembot?" [b"Well put, sir." Clembot replied. "Now I feel a little embarrassed," Clemont chuckled. "Hey, I want to keep learning, too!" Ash exclaimed, putting his arm over both Clemont and Applejack. "Me too!" Bonnie added running over to her friends and her older brother. "Clembot, we're friends, I suppose?" Applejack asked. "Yes, Applejack. We're friends now." Clembot buzzed. "Me too," Serena said. Later... "What!? Your robot kicked you out of your own Gym!?" Meyer yelled as the siblings explained what happened. "Daddy, wait until you hear the end of the story!" Bonnie reminded. "Everything's fine now! It's okay to leave it to Clembot to be the Gym Leader!" Clemont assured. "Well, I sure hope you're right...So does that mean you'll be coming to visit by the house more often?" Meyer asked. "Well..." Clemont sttuerted a bit. "Just tell him Clemont!" Bonnie shrieked. "The thing is... I'm... I'm going on a journey! Since I've met Ash and the others. I have been gaining more courage whenever I travel around them!" Clemont explained. "Coruage, huh?" Meyer asked. "That's right!" Clemont said more. "I've been afraid to try out new things, but now I feel complerty different!" "Wow, " Ash was amazed. "I experienced a lot of things! I know that doesn't mean anything but it is to me! Even Ash and Sunset make it to the Kalos League, it's really important that I travel with them!" "Daddy, I want to go with Ash, Clemont, and my friends, too!" Bonnie added making Meyer think a little. "I'll take of Bonnie! I promise!" Serena promised. "They'll be safe in our hands," Rarity and Applejack pleaded. "We all promise!" Everyone joined. With the words of promises, Meyer began to shake a little. "I'm just so.., just so... so proud of my kids!" He held Clemont and Bonnie with a smile. "The most important thing is to have real friends! And I'm not worried! You have my permission!" "Thanks so much, Dad!" Clemont thanked. "I love you, Daddy!" Bonnie exclaimed. "I love you, too!" Meyer replied. "Alright! So, for now, it's time to celebrate Clemont and Bonnie's new journey!" Everyone cheered and celebrated, later it was nighttime as Serena, Bonnie, and the girls slept in Bonnie's and the guys slept in Clemont's room. "Hey, Ash. Are you sorry that you weren't able to challenge the Gym?" Clemont asked. "Yeah, but back then, you decided that the challenges should be strong enough to earn four Gym badges, right?" "Yeah," Clemont agreed. "I that's what I'll do, I'll get four Gym Badges just like you wanted but I want the battle to be against you!" "Deal! I'll get stronger and give you a battle that you'll never forget!" Clemont said feeling determined. "That sounds great to me!" Ash agreed.

"My, my, don't they look happy," Jessie smiled. "Not after we catch all of them!" Meowth declared. "Woobuffet!" "Murkrow!" On their way to Cyllage City our heroes are taking an enjoyable lunch break. But little do they know mysterious eyes are watching them. The Pokémon heard the thistle from the bushes. "What's wrong?" Twilight asked the Pokémon and the bushes continue to move. "It sounds like something's moving," Rarity pointed out. "Hope it's a Pokémon!" Bonnie exclaimed. "Only one way to find out," Zane said then Froakie fired its Frubbles at the bushes. "There is something over there!" Ash exclaimed then two Pokémon jumped out covered in the Frubbles. With Team Rocket "What are they?" Sonata asked. "Never seen those Pokémon before," Aria added. Clyde scanned them with his robotic arm. "I believe they're Pancham," Clyde said, Back with the others "Sorry to scare you like that," Applejack apologized while she and Ash were wiping the Pokémon's faces the Rainbow pulled out Pokédex which was rainbow-colored. Pancham. The Playful Pokémon. Though it tries to look tough. Pancham has trouble being taken seriously by opponents. "They should do it," Ash was finished, "But those Pancham look so different," Serena said. "How come?" Jaden asked. "These two are much cuter." "The Pokédex says that they do their best to look tough. So I guess this must be their normal face." "So then why just make them cuter in the Pokédex?" "I never heard anyone complain about their Pokédex before." "Really? It's just too bad they're shown like that." The Pancham got up and ran toward the Pokémon food that Chespin and Corsola were eating making them startled. "Pan, Pancham." "Pancahm." "I wonder what they are saying?" Fluttershy asked. "Maybe they're asking if Chespin and Corsola will share the Pokémon food?" Zane wondered. "Maybe not," Sunset said. "I wish we knew what they meant." "Leave that to me!" Clemont declared. "The future is now thanks to science! Clemontic Gear, on!" Clemont pulled out a strange hearing device. "Allow me to present my Pokémon Translator!" "Whoa!" Ash, Twilight was amazed. "Ooh!" Pinkie gasped. "You got to get better at names," Bonnie mentioned. "But it sounds fascinating for sure!" Rarity exclaimed. "My brilliant invention allows the user to understand Pokémon which fascinates better with Pokémon by performing analysis of vocal tone, movement, and expression!" "Pancham, would you please say something?" He holds the mic to one of them. "Switch on!" Both of them spoke to the device. What you have belongs to everyone The Translator spoke. "See? It gave us a perfect translation!" "Science is so amazing!" "Did they really say stuff?" Bonnie asked. "Who knows, maybe they did," Applejack chimed in. "I'll guess they're probably saying what Zane said that Chespin and Corsola should share their food with them." Both Pancham nodded. "Why didn't my machine function properly?" Clemont asked then made some adjustments. "I suppose my invention could've chosen its words poorly." Then Lunatone approached Fluttershy. "Luna, Lu, Luna." "What, Lunatone?" Fluttershy asked then the Pancham appeared in front of them. "I guess you guys are hungry," Jaden smiled. "I'll get you some food!" "You know, perhaps Zane was correct after all." The machine exploded in Clemont's face, "Okay! Here you go!" Jaden handed them two plates of Pokémon food. Both of them ate the Pokémon food then ate everything else. "They ate everything we had!" Rarity exclaimed. "My Pokémon Translator was right!" Clemont realized. "It said they said that what we have belongs to everyone which means our lunch belongs to the Pancham too!" "It said what!?" Rainbow shouted. "And that doesn't help us at all now!" Bonnie shrieked. "As I said, science is so amazing!" Ash exclaimed. Pikachu, Fennekin, Chimchar, Marhstomp, Lunatone. Froakie, Totodile, Espeon. Lilligant and Treecko came to comfort Chespin the shadow appeared. "Aim, fire!" Adagio shouted as James fired a net at them, "Pikachu! Froakie!" "Fennekin!" "Marshtomp! Lilligant!" "Espeon!" "Treecko!" "Chimchar!" "Lunatone!" "Treecko!" The captured struggles to get out as the group looked up and sees some not-so-friendly faces. "Pikachu's ours, friends included!" Team Rocket cheered as they float away. "Not you losers again!" Rainbow groaned. "Surprise, surprise !" Duke cackled. "Time flies!" "Away to the skies!" Both Sonata and Clyde taunted. "Stop!" Rarity pleaded. "Oh, no they don't! Swellow, Crobat followed them!" Rainbow called her flying Pokémon to chase after them. "Swell!" "Cro!" Both of them went after Team Rocket's balloon. "Not so fast!" James called out Inkay. "Inkay!" "Inkay, go!" The Revolving Pokémon spayed ink at them, who dodged serval times before being sprayed at the face! "Swellow! Crobat! No!" Rainbow gasped as she ran to catch her Flying types. "No? Oh yes!" Aria cheered as they flew away. "Come on, everyone! Let's go!" "Right behind you!" Serena said as everyone grabbed their gear. ... "Yay! A job well done!" Team Rocket hive-five each other. "There's nothing like work that's lots of fun!" Jessie smile. "In the Boss's eyes, we'll be second to none!" James said. "Murkrow!" "Hey!" Sonata called and looked at the captured Pokémon. "We're taking you with us to Team Rocket HQ and turning you into a bunch of useful members of Team Rocket society!" "Aria, shall we notify HQ?" Adagio asked. "Hold it!" Duke came in. "Who's going to credit for this ingenious job?" "Well, Clyde and I invented the capture machine," James said, "Yeah? Me, Adagio, and Aria came up with the plan!" Meowth came in. "Well, I'm the one who pointed out the key point. It's a no-brainer!" Jessie shouted. "You don't get credit for something stupid like that!" Clyde shrieked. "Oh yeah? Timing is everything!" "Look, dopes with a plan in place everything else is nothing but a plate with no grub on it!" Adagio shot back. "Remember, it was my Inkay who stop Twerps in their tracks from chasing after us, right?" James asked as he held his Pokémon. "And lest you forgot who Inkay's trainer is... Face it both I and Clyde deserve it in full!" "Oh give me a break," Aria snapped then called out Simisear. "I say we settle this with a battle!" "You're on!" Sonata exclaimed as she called for Misdreavous. "I'll fight the good fight! Inkay use, Psybeam!" "Shadow Ball!" "Fire Blast!" "Wonbuffet, you're up!" Jessie called hers. Wobbuffet appeared and used Mirror Coat only for the attacks to launch the core of the ballon which then exploded sending them and the Pokémon they have stolen in different directions. "What was that!?" Fluttershy asked sheepily looking at the smoke. "Team Rocket's balloon exploded!" Sunset wondered. "Our poor Pokémon," Rarity was concerned. "So, we need Dedenne's help!" Jaden said. "Dedenne's help?" Bonnie asked. "How?" Zane asked. "When we first met Dedenne it used electrical energy to communicate !" "Yeah's that right! Dedenne it's great if you could pick on Pikachu's electricity!" "Wow, Dedenne can really do that? Incredible!" Applejack was amazed. "Just wait and see! Dedenne the first thing you do is figure out where Pikachu's energy is." "We're counting on Dedenne!" Ash said. Dedenne jumped off Bonnie's bag and led the group. Meanwhile Somewhere in the forest Froakie and Marshstomp were floating on a small lake. Both Water Types look around as they were there was rustle on the bushes. "Who's there?" Froakie demanded as he put his frubbles on and both prepare for battle until it was actually Pikachu and Lilligant. "Froakie, Marshtomp! There you guys are!" Lilligant called out as the Bubble Frog Pokémon shook his hood away. "Me and Lilligant need your help with right now!" Pikachu urged them to follow. "Hold on,we're coming!" Marshstomp replied. ... ... "Here we are," Lilligant replied as the Pokémon saw a pair of legs on the hole the ground. "Hey! Let me out here!" Chespin wailed muffley. "Should we help with the mess?" Froakie asked with a shrugged. "Yeah..." Pikachu replied as both him and Froakie grab Chespin's legs. "Okay, on three we pull!" With every effort they used, Chespin was finally out of the, as Pikachu and Froakie got up by Marshtomp, Lilligant explained the matter. "Alright, now we need to find Fennekin and the others! Then we can find our trainers and friends!" Lilligant poitined out. "Right!" The Pokémon agree. Just as they were about to move, they all heard a wailing voice. All of them look up to see Meowth was hangling from a tree branch, possibly from of the explosion. "Mewoth!?" Pikachu yelped in surprise. "Pikachu, be a pal and let me down!" Mewoth called . "And why I should help you?" Pikachu coldly asked. "We both Pokémon right?" Mewoth called. "Don't do it, Pikachu, he might try and trick us," Marshstomp reminded. "Come on! He's Pokémon like all of us, right?' Chespin asked being naive of Meowth's true intentions as the Eletric Mouse Pokémon saw Meowth's eyes sparkle. "Ugh... Fine..." Pikachu groaned. "Yeah! Sounds like okay to me!" Meowth chuckled. Pikachu turned to Lilligant. "Lilligant, do your thing!" "Okay," Lilligant replied then used Solar to slice it that free Meowth... then got his head stuck in a hole. "Well it's his funeral," Marshstomp muttered. ... "Thanks all you lugs! What do you say we call a truce?" Meowth asked. Pikachu fake smiled as he showed his paw. Meowth took it and shook it up and down. "I knew I can count you because that's just you are, pal!" "Now that we got you down, we need to find the others and quick!" Froakie said. Pokémon Brain Teaser #10 What's is Eevee's Fire-Type Evoultion? Answer: Flareon! Somewhere in the forest, Espoen, Treecko, and Chimchar had caught with Fennekin and Lunatone, but something was wrong. "Oh no... My beautiful tail... It's compley runied!" The Fox Pokémon groaned as she tried to lick back to where it was. "Fennekin! Espeon! Treecko! Chimchar! Lunatone!" Pikachu called. The Pokémon turned and saw Piakchu, Marshstomp, Froakie, Chespin, and Lilligant running to them. But to their suprsie Meowth was right behind them. Afraid that the others might make fun of her because of her dirty tail, Fennekin turned around to see them. "Great you guys are okay!" Lillignat smiled. "Awesome!" Chespin replied. "What is that clown doing here?" Treecko asked coldy. "Yeah! He's a bad guy!" Chimchar yipped. ' "He just made a truce with us! It's okay to trust him for now." Pikachu assured. "Dig, from now on we're best friends! Meowth assured. "I guess..." Fennkin replied then looked at her tail sadly. "You fluffy tail is a dirty and you want to clean it?" Meowth asked. "Yeah," "You really want to look good now, don't you? Meowth teased a bit then Froakie had an idea as he took tow frubbles from his neck. "In that case, how about you used my Frubbles?" Froakie suggested. Froakie then began to mix the frubbbles on Fennkin's tailm much to her starle. As moments passed, Fennekin's tail was shinning, all clean and smooth again. "Oh wow, my tail is finally clean now!" The Fox Pokémon squealed happily and the Pokémon were amazed by this as well. "Oh, So. you can yoor furbbles for making things all neat and tidy!" Meowth chuckled "Thank you, Froakie!" As Froakie started to blush a bit. With Team Rocket. they were having finding Meowth they got blasted off by Pangoro due to James's Inkay sqiuirted ink at it's face. "Oh my neck," James groaned. "This all your fault, buster," Jessie snapped at him. "What?" "It was your Inkay," as she explained then got tripped over by a spike. "Whoa," Duke being surprised. The ground came up and revealed to be a Pokémon. "And who are you?" Jessie asked angrily at the Pokémon then it turned it's lights. "It's a Pumpkaboo!" Sonata looked at her Kalos Pokémon Guide. "What it's doing out here?" Aria asked Jessie took out her Pokéball and throw at the Pumpkin Pokémon and after few moments the ball stopped moving. "I caught it!" Jessie cheered. "What!?" Aria and Adagio sheriked "No way!" The guys and Sonata couldn't believe it. Meanwhile... "Look at Dedenne!" Bonnie cred as Dedenne's cheeks were sparking caused everyone to ran to it. "Did you find Pikachu?" Ash asked. Dedenne look around, sensing the electricity from Pikachu's power. Dedenne then ran to where it was sensing the electricity. "It must found Pikachu and hopefully the rest of the Pokémon," Sunset exclaimed. "Follow that Pokémon!" Rainbow as the group follow it. Back with the Pokémon... Pikachu sensed some electricity coming this way. "Mm... what a great twig!" Fennekin exclaimed happily as everyone turned around to see her chewing on twig. "It a twig! That's really states good!?" Meowth asked. "It's yummy to me!" Fennekin giggled. "Let me try!" Chespin replied and did the same only for the Spiny Nut Pokémon looked at it in disgust. "Ugh, gross!" Chespin retorted then threw it hitting somewhere that wasn't a good spot. Everyone heard a roar and saw a Pangoro running toward to them. "Cranky pants!" Meowth screamed as ran off causing the others to follow him. Chespin panicked a fire Pin Missie at the Pangoro only to get more angry. "Are you okay?" The Panchams asked. "It look like there pals!" Meowth exclaimed. Why you little...!" Pangoro yelled and prepare to use Hammer Arm, just as the Pokémon began to attack, it suddenly stooped. as it slumped. "Why do you feel so weak?" Pangoro groaned sitting down. "Pangoro!" Both Pancham called then glared at Chespin. "This is your fault!" "Pikachu!" Ash called out. All the Pokémon turned to see the group running toward them. "Pika Pi!" "It's the Twerps!" Meowth exclaimed. "Pikachu you okay!" Ash as his best buddy jumped into his arms. "Are two okay?" Jaden asked his Pokémon both Marshtomp and Lilligant smiled and nodded. "Take a good rest!" As he returns his Pokémon to their Pokéballs "I'm so glad you're okay!" Twilight was relieved that Espeon was okay. "So, sorry we took so long!" Applejack as the Pokémon reunites with their trainers. "Wow! Isn't this grand?' Meowth chuckled. "Meowth!?" Ash snapped in surprise. "What' are you doing here?" Zane demanded. "The Pancham, too!" Clemont added. "Now don't get all bent out of shape! The problem is with this lug!" showing the weak Pangoro. Sunset took her Pokédex. Pangoro. The Daunting Pokémon and the evolved form of Pancham. Pangoro has an ornery personality. It holds a bamboo sprig in its mouth, which allows Pangorp to detect surrounding movements. "Hold on... It looks different again!" Rarity points out, getting more confused. "I think it's Chespin's fault. You see, Chespin has broke Pangoro's bamboo sprig." Meowth explained. "So that's why it looks so down," Fluttershy replied feeling sorry for it. "It got spooked and accidentally hit Pangoro with a Pin Missie." "I'm so sorry. I feel just awful about this!" Both Clemont and Chespin apologized but the Panchams didn't accept it, though. "These pouty Pancham are fit to be tied!" "They're saying they need to get their paws on another bamboo sprig so that their leader back up to speed." "But, aren't there bamboo sprigs around us?" Rainbow asked seeing the whole forest only for the two Playful Pokémon to yell at her. "They're saying it has to be special bamboo that only grows on this certain rock a but up ahead!" "It is true that all Pangoro have different kinds of their favorite bamboo sprig. And it's also true that they'll keep searching until the right one for them," Clemont explained. "I'll go look for one! Since I'm Chespin's Trainer, it's my responsibility! Come on, Chespin. Let's go look for one!" "I'll come too!" Ash offered. "We've got to help them!" Bonnie agreed. "The sooner the better, let's go!" Sunset called then turned to one of Pancham. "Pancham, will you show us the way?" The first nodded and led them to the bamboo sprig. While Meowth, and the second one stay behind to look after Pangoro. "You know AJ," Rainbow turned to her while running. "I don't trust Meowth staying behind look after Pangoro." "I don't trust him either," Applejack agreed with her. "But he is a Pokemon, I only hope that varmint doesn't do any funny while we're gone." Little do they know... "Hey, Meowth," Sonata called for him from the bushes as she and others emerged from them. "Finally we found you," Adagio exclaimed. "You certainly get around," Aria added. "Woob!" "Turn it down!" Duke and Clyde put Wobbuffet down. "Palleys! My Buds!" Meowth exclaimed as walked to them. "So glad to see you guys!" "What happen to Mr. Big?" Jessie asked looking at weaken Pangoro. "That lump turned my good day into a bad one," James said. "Here the scoop," Meowth began to explain what happened. Back with our heroes "Pancham!" The Playful Pokemon pointed up. "All the way up there?" Zane asked. "Why would Pangoro chose to get its bamboo sprig from way up there?" Rarity asked. "Must be quite the finicky type," Clemont replied. "So, how do we get it?" Fluttershy asked. "I'll go," Ash volunteered. "Wait a minute, Ash," Jaden grabbed his shoulder. "We can't climb its too risky." "I have an idea," Serena spoke up. "And it' much easier way to get the bamboo. Use Vine Whip." "Of course, let's do it Chespin!" Clemont said. Chespin used Vine Whip and grab the closet bamboo sprig and gave to Pancham. Moments later the gang return. "Pangoro, we got it!" Ash exclaimed as he others saw that Team Rocket had them had Pangoro and Pancham tied up. "Team Rocket!" Zane growled. "Meowth! I knew it!" Applejack groaned. "You dumb twerps!" Meowth cackled. "It's a family reunion with the Team Rocket Clan!" "We thought we'd wait and wish you welcome," Clyde smiled. "You better let the Pokémon go now!" Twilight demanded. "You tell'em!" Pinkie cheered. "Oh? Got battle fever?" Duke asked. "Okay, Pikachu and Espeon." Aria turned to them as she brought out Croagunk. "If you know what is good for you, you come with us unless you want these two as punching bags!" "You wouldn't dare!" Twilight said shakily. "You Brutes!" Rarity exclaimed. "Pangoro can't even move!" "Aren't we smart?" James taunted. "So, Jessie shall we show the Twerps our newest member?" Adagio asked. "Yes, come on out Pumpkaboo!" Jessie declared calling her out, "Pumpkaboo!" "Cool! When did you that?" Meowth asked. "So Team Rocket got themselves a new Pokémon," Jaden said as scanned Pumpkaboo. Pumpkaboo. The Pumpkin Pokémon. Pumpkaboo's eyes can glow which lights the way for travelers. They often sleep in the ground. "Alright, Pumpkaboo, Leech Seed!" Pumpkaboo planted a seed and trap all the Pokémon and began stealing some energy from them. "What's happing!?" Serena exclaimed. "See, Leech Seed has unbelievable power to steal energy from you," Jessie explained. "Now, that's what I call some squeeze play," Adagio added. "What do we now?" Fluttershy asked. "Maybe if we can get the bamboo sprig we brought into Pangoro's mouth it can help us," Clemont said. "Good thinking," Rainbow liked the idea. "Ash hand me the sprig!" Ash handed her the bamboo sprig. "Look at this Pangoro! We got the bamboo sprig you like!" Rainbow yelled. Pangoro rose its head and with that Rainbow ran while yelling. "What is the twerpette doing?" Jessie asked. "Okay, Inkay, Psybeam!" James called. "Slumga, Flamethrower!" Duke called his Pokémon out. The Pokémon yelled as Rainbow kept running. Inkay shot the Psybeam but at the same time, Pikachu and Swellow fired Hyper Beam and Thunderbolt. The two moves collied with Psybeam creating an explosion but didn't stop her. "Pumpkaboo! Misdreavous! Use Shadow Ball!" Both Jessie and Sonata called. Both of them urls a shadowy blob, as Froakie, Bunnelby, Treecko, and Eevee counted with Water Pulse, Mud Shot, Swift, and Energy Ball. The six moves exploded as Rainbow kept on running. "She's getting closer!" Duke screamed as Fennekin, Espeon, Chespin, Chimchar, and Totodile shot their attacks with Ember, Pin Missie, Psybeam, Chimchar to produce an intense flame and Water Gun. "Wobbuffet, go!" Wobbuffet stood in front and was used in Mirror Coat, but instead of sending it back the attacks created a smokescreen that blinded them from seeing. "Here goes!" Rainbow yelled as she dove and put the bamboo sprig on Pangoro's mouth as she was on the ground. "Got it!" To her answer, Pangoro broke free from the rope and used Hammer Punch on Team Rocket in the air. They also scream as they were in the air. "We're blasting off..." Clyde started. "....again!" Sonata finished as they disappeared out of sight, When they were gone, the Leech Seed had off and the Pokémon were free. "Way to go Rainbow!" Ash exclaimed. "Pika Pi" "Don't mention it," Rainbow did a thumbs up. "But, Rarity what was that move that Chimchar did back there?" "To be honest I'm not so sure," Rarity replied. "I think Chimchar learned how to use Inferno," Twilight came in. "So, you learned how to use Inferno after seeing we were in danger?" Rarity asked. "Chim!" ... After saying goodbyes, Our heroes leave the Babamoo forest as Chimchar learns how to use Inferno As the journey continues Author's Note This is one of several episodes where the Pokémon do the talking.

Chapter 11-The Mysterious Rain Shelter! Espurr is Watching!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 11-The Mysterious Rain Shelter! Espurr is Watching!It was fine day until a rainstorm came down and heroes got soaked. “It’s freezing,” Ash exclaimed. “We’re getting soaked,” Serena added. “My hair,” Rarity complains. “Let’s duck in there,” Zane said looking at the house. “Uh, Dedenne stay still,” Bonnie requested for her Pokémon to stay in her bag. “Talk about it unexpected,” Sunset exclaimed while she and the girls ringed out their hair. “Man, what a storm,” Rainbow said seeing the storm. “It came so suddenly,” Clemont said. “I hate thunder,” Bonnie admitted. “So do I,” Fluttershy agreed. As on cue a strike of thunder came down causing both of them startled them and Bonnie back into a door and saw that’s it’s open. “Let’s ask if we can stay in here until it stop raining,” Ash suggested. “Guys the door’s open,” Bonnie said as she went in. “Bonnie you can’t just go in there,” Applejack exclaimed. “Any body home?” Bonnie asked. “Hello can we stay until raining?” “Excuse us,” Rainbow knocked on the door. “Is anybody here?” Serena asked. Little did they know a Pokémon was watching from above. As our heroes continue their journey to Cyallage City and Ash’ second Kalos Gym battle. They find themselves caught in a heavy thunderstorm. “Is anybody in here?” Ash asked. “Pika?” His partner did they same. “Hello?” Jaden asked. “Sorry to bother you,” Applejack said. “Seems totally deserted,” Rainbow said. “The exterior is pretty bad shape, so maybe no body lives here anymore ,” Jaden said. “Hey, why don’t we stay here for a while?” Pinkie suggested. “I guess.” “Maybe but this place gives me the creeps,” Serena said. “Me, too,” Ash added. “It’s better than getting wet,” Rainbow reminded them of the thunderstorm. “I think it feels creepy because there’s no light,” Jaden explained as he dusted one of the lamps off. “Looks like it still works.” Then the lights came on. “Thanks for the lights, Jaden,” Twilight thanks him. “Uh, I didn’t turn them on.” “So then…” “Who did?” Fluttshy asked. “Very strange,” Pinkie said. “Maybe the house sensors came on the moment we came in,” Clemont said. “Sensors?” Rainbow asked. “Yeah, that’s why the lights came on so suddenly, this maybe an old house but have the latest technology.” “We’ll that makes sense,” “Twilight and Espeon smiled. “Or maybe we’re inside a haunted house,” Serena said making Twilight and her Pokémon shivered. “Did I say that?” “You did, maybe we should wait outside unit the passes,” Applejack said. “Good idea,” Zane agreed the doors closed shut. “What happened?” Rarity said as went to the door and tried open it. “Drat it’s not opening.” “But it was just open a minute ago,” Bonnie said. “It must have been the motion detecters, locking the door after being open for a while.” “They why it still locked?” Serena asked. “Let me think…” “Maybe this is a haunted mansion that grabs people and then eats them.” Both Fluttershy hold Lunatone tightly after hearing that. “What did I say that!?” “Wait, you should never trust anything that can’t be explained with science,” Clemont said. “This a huge mansion so that means there another way to get out here.” “Yep your right, let’s find it,” Ash exclaimed as everyone look for a way out. Meanwhile outside the mansion. “It’s a downpour.” “And it happens to raining on us.” “I hate when that happens.” Jessie, James and Aria exclaimed as Team Rocket was running from the storm and duck underneath the trees. “Hey guys looks,” Duke said as he pointed to the house. “There a good chance it’s not raining in their.” “But what if someone is in there?” Clyde asked. “Then I’ll keep them company,” Adagio said the run ahead. “Were company too.” Team Rocket reached the house. “Open the door,” Aria knocked on the door. “This house creep factor is on ten,” James said. “And that a bad thing,” Jessie said. “It can keep away the rift raft and make this our Kalos frontline hideaway.” “Wait a sec, I thought we were getting out the rain,” Sonata wondered then the window open up. “Ahh, it’s a automated window,” Jessie exclaimed as she and the girls climb in. “It old house like this?” Meowth asked. “Meowth’s right,” Duke added. “Wait for us.” Then all of them got inside and looked around. “Judging by the looks of it this place has been abandoned forever,” Adagio said. “Longer,” Clyde added then the window shut. “There must be a light switch around here,” Aria said then lights came on. “Oh thanks for the lights, Sonata,” James thanked her. “I didn’t do that,” Sonata shook her head. “Maybe the whole place is automated?” “The whole place?!” James exclaimed. “I don’t know about you dudes, but I got a bed feeling about this place,” Duke said. “You’re not the only one,” Sonata and the guys agreed with him. “Let’s make sure we have a way out,” Clyde suggested. “Word up,” Meowth agreed with him. Clyde tried to open the window but it was locked. “This thing it locked shut!” Clyde yelled. With Ash and the others Ash, Rarity, Serena, Fluttershy, Clemont screamed as lightning bolt came down. “Uh, guys it just a painting,” Sunset reminded them. “Oh, right,” Clemont was relived. “It's a portrait.” “Maybe she owns the place?” Ash asked. “Maybe she’s not alive, but she’s here anyway if you know what I mean,” Serena said then Sunset had nervous looked on her. “Whoops. Did I say that?” … “Did anyone else hear that?” Jessie asked. “Yeah, loud and clear,” Adagio replied. “I’m so through with this place,” Aria exclaimed then called out Croagunk. “Smash the window with Brick Break!” Croagunk responded and used it’s tough fists and tried to smash it bur didn’t break. “Don’t let keep going.” The Toxic Mouth Pokémon continue but to no avail, with our heroes the her Aria’s Croagunk banging on the wall. “Anybody hear that?” Ash asked. “It must be a grandfather clock ticking away nothing more,” Clemont explained. “Or maybe someone’s pound a stake,”Pinkie said. “How come?” Bonnie asked. “To stop a vampire.” Then Rarity and Serena hold each other. … “Aah!” Team Rocket screamed as they saw the painting. “Wait a sec, it’s only a portrait painting,” Aria exclaimed. “Next time tell me before I scream,” Jessie shouted. “Did its eyes move just now,” James said. With our heroes, all of them heard Team Rocket’s scream. “What was that?!” Rarity asked. “Like I just said, this is old mansion, so it really drafty, the draft sounds like a whistle and the whistle sound like a person scream which quite common.” “Your wrong, there no doubt in my mind that somebody was screaming.” “Rarity’s right,” Serena side with her. “We’re not only ones in this place.” … “We need to get the heck out this place, right now,” Jessie exclaimed as Team Rocket moved slowly. “I thought you wanted to make this our hideout?” Adagio asked. “I lied.” Team Rocket something. “Any idea what’s that,” Duke said as the figure threw something at them making Team Rocket run away. “Whatever that it had shiny eyes,” Jessie shrieked. “Well I’m sticking around to find what it just threw as us!” Duke exclaimed. “That’s was no Pokéball and I’m no Pokémon!” Sonata said being scared. “But I am!” Meowth reminded her. “Another scream,” Serena exclaimed. “Let’s find a way out of here,” Zane exclaimed then figure from was right in front of them then floated away. “Hey,” Bonnie ram toward it’s. “Wait for us,” Clemont said as they followed her. “Stop,” Both Bonnie and Pinkie chased after it and turn the corner when Ash others arrived they were gone. “Where did they go?” Flutttershy asked. “I don’t see them,” Twilight said. “Bonnie! Pinkie! Where are you?” Sunset called for them. … “Is someone calling us?” Jessie asked as Team Rocket were hiding in a bedroom. “It probably what’s ever haunting the place,” Meowth explained. “Now that you mention it, it does look haunted?” Clyde asked. “Keep your crazy ideas to yourself,” Aria yelled at him. … “Both of them have to around some where?” Ash wondered the Jaden screamed out loud that Team Rocket held in each other in fear. “What’s was that for?” Applejack asked. “Did you see something?” Serena asked. “I figured it out, there must be a psychic or ghost type Pokémon in the mansion, Jaden explained. “That's why the lights came on and the doors closed by themselves.” “You think a Pokémon did this?” Rarity asked. “That would explain all the weird stuff and that thing we saw was a actually a Pokémon,” Sunset explained. “A Pokémon?” Ash asked. “Pika?” “I guess the doors and windows wouldn’t open up because that Pokémon probably doesn’t wants us to leave just yet.” “But why?” “I don’t know.” With Bonnie and Pinkie both of them saw the Pokémon. “Hello there,” Bonnie greeted it. “What’s your name?” Pinkie asked the Pokémon turned around and walk toward them.

Espurr, The Restraint Pokémon. It has has enough psychic energy to blast everything within 300 feet of itself, but no control over its power. “I knew it,” Jaden exclaimed. Espurr used its psychic power and hold up the pedant it was wearing and explained. “It trying to tell me something but I can understand it,” Bonnie pouted. “We we’re too panicked to think, but now it makes sense,” Adagio said as Team Rocket entered the room. “Team Rocket,” Ash exclaimed. “Let’s put a pin on it that,” Aria suggested. “None of us are getting out here unless we figure out what Espurr wants from us.” ”Both of them are right,” Jessie agreed. “Translate please?” “Basically, Espurr says it wants us the return the pedant to its lady in the painting,” Meowth explained. Espur kept talking. “It says she really took care of Espurr…it came to return her the necklace but she nowhere to be found.” “I see,” Ash understand. “So it’s been waiting for her.” “All this time,” Sunset added. “She must have really like you if she gave to that pedant,” Rainbow said. “Espurr, Espurr.” “But now, Espurr wants to find out where the old lady went.” “I’m afraid any of us doesn’t know where she is,” Zane explained. “But maybe we could find out.” “Your right, Zane, we could try.” “That’s a great idea.” “I afraid we don’t have time for this,” Jessie said. “We know the quickest way,” Meowth added. “And that to catch Esupurr,” Duke explained as he and Clyde armed their Pokéball. “What are doing!” Ash exclaimed. “Now Slugma let’s go!” Duke shouted. “Slumga.” “Now Mangnemite!” Clyde called his Pokémon as Jessie called for Pumpkboo. “Now Pumpkboo, use Leech Seed!” Espurr was trapped by the Leech and Couldn’t moved and began drain its energy. “Flamethrower!” “Discharge!” Both Slugma and Magnemtie launched their attacks at them but instead a shield came out of nowhere. “Impressive, it’s using Protect,” Zane exclaimed. “Thank yoI,” Bonnie thanked it.

Moments later a car pulled up at the front of the mansion. “Espurr.” “Just leave finding the lady of lives her to us,” Rainbow said. “I wonder did that woman live here all by herself,” Sunset wondered. “Are you talking about my grandmother,” a woman asked walking to them. “The one on the painting?” “Why yes, she’s your grandmother I had no idea,” Fluttershy realized. “Does that mean you own this house.” “I sure do, name is Elise, pleasure to meet you.” “Ash.” “Twilight Sparkle.” “Jaden.” “Clemont.” “Bonnie.” “Pinkie Pie.” “Rainbow Dash.” “Rarity.” “Applejack.” “Fluttershy.” “Sunset Shimmer.” “Zane.” … “I understand, you knew my grandmother back then.” “All of us are sorry for enter your house, without permission.” “No problem.

Our heroes have encountered a mysterious ninja “Where could he be?” Ash asked then the bushed rustles in response Froakie fired it’s Frubbles. “Use your Frubbles!” The ninja exclaimed as Frubbles came out and Froakie dodged it. “Nice one! Let’s go!” Ash and Froakie went to edge of the cliff and looked for him then Froakie threw his Frubbles at a collection of leaves it popped and both of them look up to see it was Pokémon that look just like Froakie. “Who that Pokémon?” Ash held his Pokédex and scanned it. Frogadier. The Bubble Pokémon. And evolved form of Froakie. It’s speed is unparalleled. It can scale a tower of more than 2000 feet in a minute. “The evolved form of Froakie?” Both the ninja and its Pokémon landed on ground level and the others caught up. “That is cool!” Rainbow said. “I’m Sanpei and young skillful ninja.” “So your a ninja?” Applejack asked. “Incredible,” Serena said. “Pika!” “My name's Ash, you got a great partner with Frogadier about a battle with my Froakie?” “I been looking for a suitable opponent for my Frogadier to battle against but I have my doubt that your Froakie is strong enough.” “What? Never know until we tried!” “All right then I accept your challenge!” “Yeah! Kay Froakie let’s go!” Moments later both Ash and Sanpei were on opposite side of the battlefield and Jaden was the judge. “The one-on-one battle between Ash and Froakie and Sanpei and Frogadier is about begin the battle will conclude when either side Pokémon can’t continue,” Jaden explained. “Is that understood?” “Say where’s Sunset?” Twilight asked. “I’m right here,” Sunset joins the others. “I was in the forest doing last minute training. So what did I miss?” “Ash is about to battle a ninja, that’s what! This is going to be epic!” Rainbow exclaimed. Both Ash and Sanpei nodded agreement. “Okay, let the battle commence!” Ash vs Sanpei 1vs1 “You may have the first move.” “I accept, Froakie use Bubble!” Froakie spray countless bubbles at Frogadier. “Dodge it!” Frogadier dodged it and landed on the tree. “So fast!” Fluttershy gasped. “Well we can move fast too! Chase Frogadier down and used Pound!” Froakie moved right where Frogadier was standing and prepare to use Pound. “Dodge it, one more time!” Frogadier dodged it and landed on another branch. “Now, try it again!” Froakie used Pound again but Frogadier dodged it and Froakie went after it. “Man it’s quick! In that case aim and use Water Pulse!” Froakie aim the Water Pulse and fire at Frogadier. “Now, use Smokescreen!” Frogadier made a cloud of smoke and vanished. “Where did Frogadier go?” Zane asked. “It ninja stealth skill.” “Froakie concertante, use your instincts. Water Pulse!” Froakie closed its eyes and sense Frogadier’s presence and fired the Water Pulse but only log cover with some Frubbles and Frogadier jumped out of the water. “Now use Bubble!” “Countered with Bubble!” Both of the Pokémon shot Bubble but Frogadier attack pushed through and hit Froakie. “Water Pulse!” “Use yours!” Frogadier and Froakie used Water Pulse and fire at each other but Froakie’s hit back right into him but it was okay, “Awesome!” Bonnie exclaimed. “So is Frogadier stronger because it’s the evolve form of Froakie?” Serena asked. “Being the evolved form doesn’t mean anything! We’re going to win this using our spirit! Froakie, Water Pulse! Froakie prepared to use Water Pulse! “Use Quick Attack!” Not only Frogadier dodged it, but Froakie couldn’t keep up with it. “Whoa!” Rainbow and Serena exclaimed. “I’m getting dizzy!” Bonnie said as well as Pinkie. Frogadier continue to use Quick Attack. “I never seen Quick Attack like this!” Jaden seeing it. “Dodge it quick!” It too late and Froakie took the full force of it and straight into a tree. “Are you okay?” “This battle is over.” Sanpei said. “No one has ever withstand my Frogadier’s Quick Attack and been able to continue.” But to everyone surprise Froakie got up. “That’s the spirit, we’re just getting warmed up.” “All right use Quick Attack one time!” Frogadier lunges at Froakie but Froakie flinched and the ninja took noticed. “Now, Ninja Leaf Shroud!” Sanpei used it and suddenly Froakie was in his arms. “It was already over, Froakie wouldn’t quick.” He gave the Pokémon back to Ash. “Froakie. I hate to admit it but we lost.” Hours has passed as Fluttershy was treating Froakie’s injuries. “Here drink this,” Fluttershy hold a cup of water and Froakie drank it. “We both lost because I didn’t come up with good strategy. I’ll let you down,” Ash came up to them. “That is exactly correct and not only that your Froakie still need a lot more training. You arefortunate that Froakie didn’t endure any more damage.” Then Sanpei gave Fluttershy a berry. “What’s that?” She asked. “It’s remedy that been formulated through and energy root it will restore Froakie’s energy.” He put the medicine in Froakie’s mouth and Froakie felt energized. “It also bitter, so it works if you can feel it.” “Well, Froakie feeling a lot better.” “Well it’s time for to leave.” “Wait a minute,” Ash stopped him. “Something else I can do for you?” The ninja asked him. “Please, show me how you did it?” “Did what?” “In all the time I’ve been training I never seen a Quick Attack like that. So please teach my Froakie how to use it. You want learn it don’t you?” “Fro!” “Won’t help us?” Both of the begged. “All right.” “You’re not kidding?” “Of course not!” “Yeah! It that great Froakie?” “But my training is very straight.” “Fine by us, okay Froakie?” “Just seeing it’s really amazing, two trainers who were battling and then become friends,” Applejack said. “That’s what Pokémon battling is all about,” Clemont said. “So you know l, when train a Pokémon, I train them hard and train hard with along side them.” “Yeag I’m right with you, I’ll train hard with Froakie!” “I wanna be a ninja too!” Bonnie said. “Then your in luck,” Serena pulled out her makeup kit and then Bonnie and the Pokémon were dress like ninjas. “I’m a ninja!” “That is stellar work, Serena,” Rarity said her. “And you look dashing darling.” … “The important thing about Quick Attack is of course being able to move quickly and to do that is have flexibility in the muscles. So, the first thing we meet to is strengthening your spring.” “It’s time for me to step up,” Clemont smirked. “You better prepare yourself for this, Clemontic Gear, on!” He revealed a spring like invention. “I call this my Muscle Magnifier Machine, I thought we encountered a situation precisely like this one.” “Okay, you put springs on your shoes,” Bonnie pointed out. “Ah they not normal springs the base of exercise is increasing muscle strength. The spring in these multiple your jump by using body weight in the process, because the load of your body weight, they strengthen you leg muscles rapidly.” “Science is so amazing!” Ash and Twilight said. “Allow me to show you how it works…ahh!” Clemont then was skyrocket to air. “Well he really disappeared fast no doubt,” Rainbow said. … “Training must proceed step by step,” Sanpei explained as they’re now deep in the forest. “Frogadier, please show them our basic training method.” Frogadier nodded and stepped over rocks and branches with its agility. “So quick,” Rainbow exclaimed. “All rights Froakie, do you think you keep up with Frogadier.” “There no better time for you to give a try,” Ash suggested. Froakie did it’s best to keep with Frogadier. … “Next will Froakie to run over water.” “On water?” Zane asked. “It’s impossible to run on water.” “Nah! We can do it!” “All Frogadier will show it how it’s done.” Frogadier run on the water with ease and made to other side. “I can’t believe Frogadier really ran on water.” “Now it your turn, Froakie.” Froakie did the same but was in the water. “There is a trick to doing it is make sure is to move quickly.” “Move your feet quickly. Can you do that?” Froakie began running in place to build up speed. “Just like that, now go!” Froakie kept trying but he kept sinking, and Frogadier show him how it’s done. “Feeling frustrated the used that and get out there and do it!” Froakie ran as fast as can and did it. “He did it!” Twilight cheer. Within the trees , Team Rocket was spying on them. “That Frogadier is something else,” Aria exclaimed. “Team Rocket Ninjas, great no Team Rocket Ninja Pokémon,” Adagio suggested. “We’ll put together a Ninja Pokémon posse and those two will be the stars!” Sonata said. “Wobbuffet!” “Houd!” Hey y’all It's Applejack with today’s Pokémon Brain Teaser This Rock TypePokémon may be small but is very strong and sturdy what it is? After spending hours of training, the gang decided to have a lunch break. “All right let’s eat!” Everyone said then chow down. “Wow this great, delicious, what is it?” The ninja asked. “It fried noodles,” Jaden told him. “It is now my favorite food. I heard from my friends in Ninja Village, it so good.” “Please try the cookies I bake,” Serena offered. “This is best cookie ever!” … “There’s nothing like a nap after a good meal,” as everyone was lying down. “You said it,” Both Ash and Rainbow agreed with him. “So Sanpei that Ninja Village you mention, is that you home town?” “That’s right it’s also home of my oldest brother who is by far the strongest ninja there. He’s there with his Greninja.” “Greninja?” “The final evolution of Froakie,” Clemont explained. “My other brother has his Venusanr. My goal is to one day defeat both of them and get the tittle of strongest ninja of Ninja Village.” “So I guess you left, so you can train.” “Exactly. And for you, Ash?” “I working hard to become a Pokémon Master.” “It’s incredible how even your goals are different you both working as hard as you can to realize yours dreams.” “Sounds likes you make good rivals.” … “Next will train by jumping from tree branch to tree branch in order to the explosive power for a Quick Attack. Alright you two, follow us.” “Froakie this where we step on the gas!” “Froakie!” “Then let’s go!” All of them jumped from branch to branch with Ash doing his best. “Always looks two or three branches ahead, you go faster.” Then Sanpei and Frogadier moved faster. “Once you get the hang of it you won’t believe your speed.” As Ash and Froakie continue their training, Twilight and Sunset had finished their battle with their Eevee and Espeon. “Thanks for the battle Twilight,” Sunset thanked her. “Your welcome, I’ve meaning to asked happened to you when Ash did his training with Sanpei?” “Simple, I was just finishing up my training until Riolu showed me this,” Sunset explained then pulled out a Fire Stone and show it to Twilight. “No way! A Fire Stone! That’s incredible! So you planing to Evolve your Eevee?” “Yep, and now is the perfect time,” Sunset said then called Eevee. “Come on out!” Eevee came delighted to see it's Trainer. “The reason why I asked for is because I wanted to show you something,” She shows her the Fire Stone. “I found this earlier today, and asked one question, Are you ready for the next step?” The Evolution Pokémon nodded. “Then here.” Eeveee touched the Fire Stone and to evolve after it was done it look like a beauty of flames. “Flare!” “It’s now a Flareon!” Twilight exclaimed then heard a loud sound. “What was that?” “Don’t know but it came from over Ash and the others are.” Both Twilight and Sunset ran to see what happened. “Hey guys- holy moly what’s is that!?” Twilight asked seeing a giant robot. “Prepare for trouble, hold on for dear life,” “Make it double, the fury in strife,” “To protect the world from devastation,” “To unite all people within our nation,” “To denounce the evils of truth and love,” “To extend our reach to the stars above,” “Jessie,” “James,” “Adagio,” “Aria,” “Sonata,” “Duke,” “And Clyde,” “Team Rocket stealthy blasts off at the speed of light,” “Surrender now or ninja edged fight,” “Meowth, that’s right!” “Wobbuffet!” “Houndour!” “Murkow!” “Team Rocket, why am I not surprised,” Twilight said. “Who are they?” Sanpei asked. “Jerks who steal Pokémon from everyone!” Rainbow simply said. “It’s a gift,” Jessie replied. “And now were going to add Froakie and Frogadier to our evil Pokémon ranks!” Clyde exclaimed. “We’ll catch right now and the boss will say thanks!” Adagio snickers as the Robot blinded them then fire it arms to catch them but they avoid it. “Frogadier, Frubbles!” Frogadier threw it frubble and cover the the charm of the robot. “The charm is now goo up!” Sonata exclaimed. “Alright, everyone we need our Pokémon to work together.” “No problem! Come out Jolteon!” Rainbow called her Pokémon. “Well I prefer apart,” James said. “Separate them,” Duke shouted. “Don’t sweat it, you got to keep them separated.” The robot fire multiple projectiles. “Quick Attack let’s go!” Jolteon, Froakie and Frogadier use their speed and dodge them until Froakie lost it's balance, both Jolteon and Frogadier land a direct hit on the robot. “Feet don’t fail me now!” Meowth exclaimed as the robot regained its grounding. “Fire net!” The robot fire a net them, Jolteon avoids it but the net capture Frogadier. “Gotcha!” Clyde smiled. “Pikachu, use Iron Tail! “Seviper, use Posion Tail!” Zane called for him and both used the attacks but the robot fire a net at them. “Pikachu!” “Seviper!” “Talk about a crack shot!” James said. “Ash, allow me to lend a hand, let’s go Flareon!” Flareon was right beside Froakie. “Wow!

Chapter 13- The Scary Malamar!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 13- The Scary Malamar!Deep within a cave, Team Rocket was watching a clip of Pikachu’s moveset. “So, Thunderbolt, Electro Ball, Quick Attack and don’t forget Iron Tail,” James said. “All first-rate moves. Without a doubt that Pokémon must be ours.” “Agreed, but first, we need to make it easier by separating Pikachu from that bothersome twerp,” Adagio added while Sonata grabbed the cube. “Yeah, but those two are stuck like glue, prying those two apart won’t be easy,” Sonata said. “I couldn’t help hearing you,” a figure shows up with a Pokémon. “That Pikachu will be useful in my plans.” “Eavesdropping is bad manners who are you?” Jessie asked. “They call me Madame X and this is Malamar.” Malamar shines bright lights on Team Rocket. … … Our heroes continue their journey to Cyallage City and Ash’s next gym battle “Okay, according to the map,” Jaden looked at it. “The Pokémon center is just beyond the woods.” “Whoa, what’s that?” Ash asked looking over yonder. “That, that’s a radio observatory,” Clemont said. “Radio observatory?” Applejack asked. “Right it’s a place, that receives radio waves from outer space then it automatically analyzed those waves using the latest high-tech equipment.” “I have no idea what you just say, but it sounds cool’s.” The bushes rustled and show Sonata carrying her Misderavous in her arms. “Hey guys a little help,” Sonata stammered then collapsed. “Sonata, what happened?” Twilight asked as she and Espeon walked to her. “Both of them are hurt,” Clemont looking at the injuries. “We need first aid, Bonnie!” “On it!” Bonnie got first aid. Hours Sonata came around and open her eyes. “What’s up.” “Your awake,” Serena exclaimed. “What happened to you and your Pokémon?” Rainbow asked. “Hear me out, I came all the way to tell you in danger.” “Danger? What are talking about?” Sunset asked. “Yeah, I want hear more,” Ash implied. “Pika-Pika.” “Just thinking about what happened gives me the creeps… it was the worst nightmare times 10…” Sonata started to explain. “So me and my buddies were doing what always do until someone by the name of Madame X overheard our plans along with creepy Pokémon named Malamar, she made it used Hypnosis on us so we would obey her commands, but naturally Jessie, James, Meowth or my sisters, along with Duke and Clyde weren’t having it so they called their Pokémon buddies to them a lesson, but it was already too late, as for me to survive it, called out Misdrevous asked to hurt me, it was short wire was to keep head together, and once we did that we ran out of there as fast we can to find you warning you about Madame X. You can hate all you want but she’s coming.” “Blah Blah, I'd say you try and trick us again. So you catch Pikachu for yourself.” “I agree with the kid,” Applejack sided with her. “You're not going to fool us twice.” “I'm telling you the truth, even if I were to do that I would have done it by now.” “Sonata,” James called her as Team Rocket caught up. “What are you doing here?” “You better hurry and catch Pikachu,” Aria added. “Team Rocket!” Rainbow exclaimed. “So you are trying to catch Pikachu after all,” Twilight scolded. “You got it wrong, they’re being controlled just look at their eyes.” “Let’s move,” Sunset suggested then Madame X and Malamar were right behind them. “Yikes, it's them, that’s Madame X,” Sonata exclaimed. “What kind of a name is X?” Serena asked. “So that Malamar,” Ash held out his Pokédex. Malamar. The Overturning Pokémon. And the evolved form of Inkay. Possessing the strongest hypnotic power of any Pokémon, Malamar can compel others to do anything it wants them to do. “So that the famous Pikachu, a strong one indeed. I think I’ll make you my servant right here and now. Malamar.” Malamar used Hypnosis. “Keep eyes from the light,” Sonata said as everyone closed their eyes. “Stop with it with Electro Ball!” Pikachu used Electro Ball and fired straight at them casing a smokescreen. “Let’s make tracks before they recovered!” Rainbow shouted as they ran. “Leaving so soon?” Duke asked while he and Adagio were levitated and cornered them. “Pikachu will become a member of our Pokémon patrol.” “Pokémon patrol?” Fluttershy asked. “Unstoppable and destined to take control of the world and put Madame X on the throne to rule it all,” Adagio added. Both Houndour and Wobbuffet threatened Bonnie. “They’re is no way you're taking over the world!” Bonnie exclaimed. ” And now I think about that’s all we always do.” Sonata thought to herself then Pikachu was lifted off Ash’s shoulder. “Now they're using Malamar’s Psychic,” Zane exclaimed as the rest of Team Rocket were in the air. “Farewell fools,” Madame X said then laughs evilly as floated away. “We got to do something,” Serena said. “I know, but how do we know where they’re taking Pikachu?” Rarity asked. “I’m sure that Madame X has to have a hideout somewhere…the future is now thanks to science! Clemontic Gear, on!” Clemont showed them a robot that look like Pikachu. “I thought we encountered a situation precisely like this one!” “You did?!” Serena, Bonnie, and Rarity asked. “Awesome!” Ash exclaimed looking at it. “It’s a Pikabot!” “I called it my automatic Pikachu Retrieval Device.” “So cool!” “Pikachu Retrieval Device?” Sunset asked. “You get no points for good names,” Bonnie said. “Observe,” Clemont turns it on. “This detects Pikachu’s unique energy pattern and tracks to the farthest of the land, the bottom of the ocean, or the expanse of the sky!” “Great! Now, will Pikachu for sure!” “It’s incredibly inspiring that the steady progress of science can never be stooped!” Then the robot started to beep. “It’s picked up a signal. Onward go Automatic Pikachu Retrieval Device.” The robot zoomed out of there. “Begin retrieval!” Clemont exclaimed as he and Ash followed it. “Wait for us!” Rainbow said as the others followed leaving Sonata behind. “What about me!” Sonata runs after them. “What’s going on up ahead?” Clemont asked he caught with it only to find his invention stuck on a fence. “I think it’s stuck,” Applejack said then it exploded. “Owie!” Both Sonata and Pinkie were on the ground. “Chalk that one in the total failure box,” Rainbow said. “Failure is the mother of success, I so want to believe that,” Clemont said before he fainted. Hours Later “Okay, we're all set,” Clemont repaired the APR. “Now don’t we see how you work?” He turns it on and the bot beeps red blinking lights. “That’s odd? Perhaps a loose wire?” “That’s the radio observatory we saw before,” Sunset said. “Isn’t that Officer Jenny's motorcycle?” Bonnie asked while pointing at it. “Your right,” Rainbow said seeing it. “Wonder what she’s doing here?” “You know if that Pika-bot of was right track maybe the weird place is Madame X’s hideout,” Sonata exclaimed. “Could be, maybe Officer Jenny could get a report and come to investigate, I’d say the probability of that is high.” “Okay let’s go.” “Right.” … “We should split up,” Ash suggested. “Right,” Clemont agreed. “Bonnie, Fluttershy, Jaden, Pinkie, and Zane with me.” “Kay, we go other the way,” … “Officer Jenny, since we saw her motorcycle parked outside she got to be in here,” Jaden said. “Yeah, but could she be?” Bonnie asked. “Maybe, Madame X got ahold of her,” Fluttershy feared then Malamar was right In front. “Malamar!” Clemont exclaimed. “So this Madame X’s hideout!” Pinkie exclaimed that it shine its bright lights on them until all were under mind control. With Ash’s group… “Not on here,” Ash and others looked around. “I wonder if Clemont and the others had any luck,” Serena wondered. “Negative,” Clemont and Jaden said as caught with them. “We haven’t found a thing.” “Ash, Serena, Sunset, Twilight, Rainbow, Rarity, Applejack let’s look together,” Bonnie said as she, Pinkie, Fluttershy, and Zane came from behind. “Uh oh, now they're under mind control too,” Twilight said then Malamar was right behind them shine its light. “Don’t look at it!” Rainbow shouted. “Let’s run!” Ash exclaimed but was cornered. “What are we going to now?” Serena asked. “I know, Rainbow called out Crobat and used Air Slash!” “Good thinking!” She did just that bring Crobat out. “No time to explain, Use Air Slash!” The Bat Pokémon attack them all with Air Slash. “Ow, ow!” “Man, does it hurt, Rarity, Serena, you two are next!” “I don’t want my face all messed up like that,” Both of them said that, and suddenly there were brainwashed. “Serena! Rarity!” Rainbow exclaimed. “We're too late!” Sonata said. “We need to scram and quick!” “Sound good but how are going that?!” Ash asked. “I know, Espeon used Swift on the planet model!” Twilght yelled and Espeon fired Swift at it and caused it to fall on Malamar who stopped with Psychic. “Good going!” Twilight said as they ran out of there. “Ok, now maybe we get the chance to stop Madame X’s plans to take over the world and save our pals at the same time!” Sonata exclaimed. “Got it!” Ash agreed and then went into a dark room. “Where are we now?” Sunset asked. “It's too dark to know but I think we're in the monitoring room,” Twilight said. A light came on showing Madame X, Pikachu, and Team Rocket. “You thought correctly,” Madame X said. “Pikachu!” Ash called his buddy. “Show them your power.” Pikachu hopped down and used Thunderbolt and Zapped Ash then fell down. “Ash, are you okay?” Sunset asked him. “Why would he attack Ash like that?” Rainbow asked. “Look at the eyes, Pikachu got hypnotized by Malamar,” Sonata said. “No way!” “Pikachu has become a faithful and obedient servant. Now stop them once and for all!” Pikachu used Quick Attack and rammed right into Ash and Sunset. “Fantastic! Continue your wonderful work!” Pikachu used Iron Tail and came right at Twilight. “Stop it!” Twilght rolled out of the way before made it contact. “Pikachu can’t hear a word you say! Madame X has taken over its head!” “No way, that Pikachu would so mind control so easily!” Rainbow denied. “Rainbow's right! I don’t believe it! Pikachu is still my number one partner and my friend. I know you came to hear me!” “Give it up, Ash,” Fluttershy as she and the others were in the room. “No matter how you fight you can not resist Madame X.” “The world now belongs to Madame X,” Pinkie came in. “With Pikachu and the Pokémon Patrol.” Several doors open tons of wild Pokémon. “Pikachu, end this!” Madame X said then it used Electro Ball and fired it at them which all of them dodge but Ash got hit with Thunderbolt. “That does it,” Applejack exclaimed. “Treecko come out and knocked some sense into him.” Treecko came out and lunged right at Pikachu with both its hand forming a claw causing Pikachu some damage but resumed to hit Ash “What just happened?” The farm girl asked. “I think Treecko just learn how used Crush Claw!” Twilight exclaimed. “Pikachu? If you can hear me, please fight it,” Ash walked to it. “Don’t let her control you!” “You fool, you cannot win.” “Pikachu buddy, I believe in you. We are a team.” As soon as Ash came in direct contact Pikachu stopped and backed away. “What are doing, continue to attack the boy.” “That’s right Pikachu!” Twilight came as she held Ash up. “Break free from her control!” “Whatever bond may be left, I will break that connection forever, Pikachu stop them now!” Pikachu prepare to use Thunderbolt but struggled to release the energy. “You can do it!” Then Espeon nudged Twilight's legs. “Is something wrong?” Twilight asked it. “Esp!” It pointed to something it was Clemont’s APR came rolling and right for Pikachu. “Look out!” Ash tackled it to avoid it then it exploded in Malamar then collapsed. And everyone that was under control was back to normal. “Why are we here?” Duke asked. “Most likely to figure out where we are?” James added. “Oh joy!” Sonata hugged her sisters.” “Your you again!” “So who tell me what happened just now?” Jaden is confused. “Simple, all of us, under Malamar’s control then Clemont's invention came from outside and explode in its face,” Pinkie explained. “And look there’s Madame X!” She drop her cloak and was actually Officer Jenny. “Officer Jenny?” Twilight asked. “She Madame X the entire time.” “What am I doing?” Jenny asked. “I got a report that strange things were going on here and came right away. then and ran right into that Malamar.” “Malamar!” It began to speak allowing Meowth to translate. “Hey, Malamar saying it’s grateful for Officer Jenny doing all of the hard work.” “What’s going on?” Fluttershy asked. “Of course, Malamar must have hypnotized Officer Jenny, she assumed the role of Madame X,” Zane realize and Malamar kept talking. “Malamar says how it was able to start working on an important weapon.” “New weapon?” Sunset asked. “And what are you going do to with it?” Twilight asked. “Malamar.” “Take over the world,” Meowth explained. “And that means we are doing the work from before.” “No one controls me!” Aria exclaimed angrily. “In your dreams,” Clyde said. “Magnemite use Flash Canon!” “Simisear, Fire Blast!” “Pikachu, Thunderbolt let’s go!” All three fired Malamar dodged it and floated away. “Come back and fight you, coward!” Adagio exclaimed as everyone followed to the end of the hall. “What’s that?” Rainbow asked looking around the room. “Your new weapon, this is it,” Officer Jenny said. “Malamar!” “That’s right, this how the new world starts and only the beginning of its Grand Design, but it has been discovered it has to be destroyed right away!” The room shine bright and then started to blow. “It's going blow run for it!” Jaden shouted the everyone ran out of there right the whole place went boom and everyone saw Malamar float away. “The beginning of its grand design. Those words came from Malamar,” Sunset said. “What does it mean and what will happen next?” Fluttershy asked. “Good question, but one thing for that scary-looking Pokémon,” Rarity implied as the journey continues.

"It sure feels nice to take a nice stroll before we leave for Kalos, isn't it, Misdreavus?" Sonata asked. "Mis!" The Screech Pokémon chirped happily then heard something. "Is something wrong?" Sonata asked. From out of nowhere a wild Druddigon jumped out of the bushes surprising them. "Quick, use Shadow Ball!"

Searching for the strongest battle?” “Charizard and I planned to defeat every Mega-Evolve Pokémon that we can find and stand at the summit.” … “They were strong. Absol has been raised well,” As he gave Charizard some Pokémon food. “I know your hiding, how about coming out.” “Hi there.” “Chespin.” “What do you want?” “It’s your battle, I was watching and saw your black Charizard. I’ve seen one before to be to fair, is it brand new species of Pokémon.” “Do you want to battle?” “No, the thing is we just got started and not to have like that!” “I guess their rookies.” “My name’s Marin and this is my partner Chespie.” “Ches!” “It’s my first Pokémon and I got it from Professor Sycamore.

After waiting a couple of seconds Garchomp fell to the ground first and both Pokémon returned to normal. “Garchomp,” Garble ram to it to see if okay. “Well done. When Charizard Mega Evolves it becomes a Fire and Dragon-Type.” “You got skill I’ll give that but the next we meet I will win.” … “Your Flabébé is feeling much better,” Nurse Redheart handed Marin newly caught Flabébé. “Thank you Nurse Redheart… I hope we can good friends.” “Flab!” “Hold on, what happened to the trainer I came in here with?” “Oh, he left already, I heard Siebold has his restaurant nearby and he left.” “The Sieblod? One of the Elite Four?!” … “Welcome to my restaurant,” Sieblod greeted Alain. “I would like to order one of your specials.” “Very good, sir, it’s not for the faint of heart.” “I prefer that way.” “Finally,” Marin walked in. “It’s you!” “I assuming the young lady will be joining us.” Moments later Both Siebold and Alain had their Charizard and Blastoise. “Can Siebold’s Pokémon can Mega Evole?” Marin wondered to herself. “I guess so.” “Not to be rude, will you use your Fire Type Charizard against my Water Type Blastoise?” “Yes, I want to be strongest with Charizard even it means the odds are against us, our bond is stronger than your logic. Key Stone respond to heart, beyond Evolution, Mega Evolve!” Charizard had Mega had Mega Evolve. “Delicious, you bring everything you have to the battle and that is nothing less the true art.

Chapter 14-Roggenrola vs TreeckoView OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 14-Roggenrola vs TreeckoIt was a typical day for our heroes enjoining a lunch break in the open field. “It’s so good to enjoy a nice day without having problems,” Rarity exclaimed. “I agree, this is the best pie ever,” Bonnie added while eating. “How did you make it, Pinkie?” “I simply got it berries from around the forest and voila pie for everyone,” Pinkie said the Sandile came out of her hair. “Is something wrong Sandile?” Then out of the blue, a rugged Pokémon made a mess. “Sweet Celestia, my pie has been ruined!” Pinkie said in horror. The Pokémon jumped up and down in excitement. “What Pokémon is that?” Serena asked. “Is Roggenrola,” Ash explained with general knowledge of him catching one. “A Roggenrola, eh?” Applejack asked then scanned with her Pokédex. Roggenrola. The Mantle Pokémon. Its ear is hexagonal in shape. Compressed underground, its body is as hard as steel. “Pretty impressive,” AJ exclaimed then called Treecko. “Treecko used Energy Ball!” Treecko used Energy Ball which scored a direct hit on Roggenrola but only knocked it back a little. “What in tarnation? I thought Grass Type is strong against Rock type, what gives?” “Roggenrola's special ability is Sturdy Body,” a voice explained. “It means if moves that effectively to damage to it, Roggenrola can shake it off.” “Which one of us said that?” Jaden asked. “I did,” a trainer said in a monologue tone then Pinkie hugged her. “It's so good to see you again, Maud!” She exclaimed then back away. “Everyone this is big sister Maud Pie, who also happened to geologist.” “A what?” Bonnie asked confused. “Geologist, it means the study of rocks,” Zane explained. “What a minute you have a sister?” Serena asked. “Of course I do,” Pinkie holds a picture of her sisters. “That's me, Maud, Limestone, and Marble, who is the youngest of us.” “Anyway, what’s Roggenrola doing anyway?” Ash asked. “Most Roggenrola in this area typically stay inside of a cave where there is a natural spring.” “Then something must’ve bad happened if one of them came out,” Fluttershy spoke up. “It felt like I could hear its thoughts and that not all, it had strange object it back.” “Then what are waiting for,” Rainbow exclaimed. “Let’s head down there a see what’s what.” Meanwhile “This is perfect,” Duke of Team Rocket exclaimed seeing the captured Roggernola. “We got all the Roggernola we need.” “And right on schedule,” Sonata cheered. “The weapon that was created by yours truly holds unspeakable power the Roggernola is the key to activating it.” “So once our worked is completed,” Adagio added. “Kalos will be ours,” Aria exclaimed. “Are you sure this is the place?” Serena asked Maud. “Yep, this is the carve where most of the Roggernola are here,” Maud replied. “Rogg!” The Roggernola from before found them and went into the cave. “Okay, so it was trying to tell us something,” Clemont said. “So let’s follow it,” Ash exclaimed as they went into the cave. … “When did these big boulders get here?” Rarity asked then out of nowhere a large truck with robotic arms rolled in front of them. “What in the world!?” Then a latch came out and the Roggernola. “Of course, that thing on its back was a suction cup!” Zane exclaimed. “What are you doing to them?” Sunset asked. “Surely, A foolish question if you had to ask?” “We will answer you, twerps, when we feel like it.” “We bring the white of evil into the future.” “Bringing the thunder of justice, to the blackest of the universe.” “And carving our names on the rocks of eternity.” “Adagio.” “Aria.” “Sonata.” “Duke.” “And Clyde.” “And now we gather under the name of Team Rocket.” “Ugh, you jerks again!” Rainbow groaned. “Do ever get tired of being lame.” “Quiet!” Duke shouted. “And for your information, these are wild Roggernola.” “Which are being used for a brand new weapon,” Adagio explained. “Check it out!” Sonata grinned as they all the Roggernola they caught. “How low can you go?” Twilight scolded them. “Sorry to rock and roll, we need to conduct some testing,” Clyde explained. “Not to mention, you're boring us to death,” Aria exclaimed. “Have a nice day!” “I don’t think so, Sneasel, Metal Claw!” Jaden said as Sneasel sliced through the l and Applejack caught it. “Okay, there partner?” Applejack asked. “Rogge!” “I’m not worried that one of the men got away,” Duke said. “He’s right, we have enough to complete our plan,” Aria said. “Let’s jam!” “Riolu, save the Roggernola!” Sunset called him out. “Rio!” “Ah no, you don’t!” Sonata as she caused the cave to collapse. “We need to get out here!” Serena said as one of the rocks came right at her and Rarity. “Serena, Rarity, look out!” Rainbow exclaimed. Roggernola used Flash Cannon and blasted them to bits. “Impressive,” Rarity exclaimed. “It used Flash Cannon.” “Thanks, Roggernola,” Fluttershy thank it. “No way, Team Rocket is getting away with this!” Ash exclaimed. “Pika!” “But they could be long gone by now,” Rainbow said. “And the bigger question is why did Team Rocket need them?” “I can answer that,” Maud said. “Deep within its body lies a high power energy core.” “High power energy core?” Clemont thought about it. “That’s it! Team Rocket’s newest weapon can somehow speed up their energy.” “Clemont’s right, they could use the Roggernolas energy for something bad,” Sunset added. “How bad?” Bonnie asked. “Like that,” Pinkie pointed to a white flash. “Sweet Celestia!” Twilight shrieked. “Everyone take cover!” As the white flash caused the cave to collapse. “What a display of power,” Clyde said. “Our test is successful, let’s fall back to the hideout,” Adagio said. “Yes ma’am!” Everyone said as they hightail out of there. “That was a close one,” Zane said. “Is everyone okay?” “Never been better,” Applejack said. “Now how are we going to get out of this cave?” “Don’t sweat it, AJ,” Jaden said. “Magmar come out!” “Magmar!” “Magmar, break through the wall with Mach Punch!” Magmar punch the wall with sheer force until they were free. “Thanks, Magmar!” As Jaden returns him to his Pokéball. “Now we got to figure out where Team Rocket went.” “Rogg!” Roggernola started to jump up and down. “What it’s doing now?” Bonnie asked. “It might be that Roggernola got something since they're sensitive to sound,” Clemont said. “Great, let’s go!” "Is everything ready?" Aria asked as Cylde made the last touches on their machine. "Yep, and right on schedule, The Roggernola Cannon is ready for action," Clyde said. "And soon, all of Kalos will be under Team Rocket's control," Adagio exclaimed as all of them laughed evilly. "That's not going to happen!" Rainbow and Ash shouted as the group arrived. "Oh, crud, it's them!" Duke exclaimed. "How did you find us?" Aria asked. "With the help of a friend," Applejack said looking down at Roggrenola. "This little feller." "If you think you're getting away, you got another thing coming!" Rarity yelled. "Give back the Roggernola!" Fluttershy added. "Stop being annoying, Staraptor!" Adagio snapped and called for Staraptor. "Starraptor!" "Gust, now!" Staraptor unleashes a flurry of wind forcing everyone the endure it! "Fennekin, use Ember!" "Chimchar, Inferno!" As Rarity and Serena called for them and both of them shot their attack at the Flying type which got hit. "Staraptotr, are you okay?" Adagio asked and the Predator Pokémon nodded. "Enough of this," Aria exclaimed. "It's time for the Roggernola cannon. "Good idea," Duke agree as they got in. "And away we go," Sonata said as she charged it up. "Amplifying core energy," Clyde said the cannon began to harness the Roggenolas core. "Their core is building," Clemont fret. "We need to move!" Roggernola moves forward to the machine. "What it's doing?" Rainbow asked. "It must be trying to tell it, friends, to stop the attack," Fluttershy said. "Energy levels at full power." "Firing Roggernola cannon." "Done." As the cannon fired with Roggernola counter with Flash Cannon resulting in a standoff. "What just happened?" "The blast got blocked by Roggernola's Flash Cannon." "Well then fire again. Will show them the power of Team Rocket tech!" Adagio said. "Right!" Sonata prepares to charge the cannon. "Not again!" Twilight exclaimed then she and Espeon ran forward. "Stop Everybody!" "Esp!" "Twilight, you need to get out of there!" Zane exclaimed. "Too late...Uh, what's going on!" Duke looked at the screen as the cannon started to power down. "The Roggernola are controlling their own core energy. And that energy is reverse polarity!" Clyde said. "Is that a bad thing?" Sonata asked as the cannon started to explode freeing the Roggenrola. "I'm glad that your okay," Fluttershy was relieved the Roggernola are feeling fine,. "I wouldn't be sure of that!" Duke exclaimed."Now Venipede, use Venoshock!" "And Staraptor, Air Slash!" Both Duke and Adagio's Pokémon fired their attacks. "Your ready, Twi?" Sunset asked her. "Thought, you never asked," Twilight replied. "Riolu, Meteor Mash!" "Espeon, Psybeam!" Espeon fired a peculiar ray at Venipede, and Riolu hit Staraptor with a hard punch fired like a meteor causing them to faint. "Pikachu, wrap it up, with Electro Ball!" Ash got in the action. "Sandile, Rock Blast!" Pinkie exclaimed. "Sneasel, Ice Beam!" Jaden shouted as the Roggernola joined Flash Cannon and every attack came right at them and it exploded as the smoke clears, they were gone. "I guess those Roggernola had oomph than we bargain for," Duke said as they were outside. "Although, with our mission being a failure, Kalos will be ours," Aria said. "Soon or later we will have the last laugh." "We did it!" Bonnie exclaimed as Roggernola jumped for joy, Later at the Pokémon Center. "Sorry, for the wait, but you will be happy to see that everyone's feeling just fine," Nurse Redheart said the Pokémon were fine. "I just finish writing a report to the water company, they begin to work very soon and include the Roggernola home," Maud said making them happy. One of them walked toward the group and motioned them to follow it. "Where it's going?" Sunset asked as they followed it. "Bye, hope to see you again, Maud!" Pinkie said. A little while later, they caught with it, as such Roggernola hopped right up and down. "Is anyone getting what it saying?" Applejack asked. "I think that Roggernola wants to battle," Jaden told her. "You think so?" "Yeah, you wanted to catch it, remember and it wants to come along." "What do you think, Treecko? Up for it?" She asked her partner. "Tree," The Wood Gecko Pokémon agreed and got into its battle stance. "You got yourself a deal, mister," Applejack exclaimed as the Rock-Type. "Now then Treecko, Quick Attack!" Treecko came right at it with Quick Attack but Roggernola twirled and used Sandstorm to drive it back. "Hang in there!" Roggenola stopped spinning and fired Flash Cannon which made an impact on Treecko. "It may be a Rock-Type but Flash Cannon is effective to Treecko since it's Steel-Type move!" Zane exclaimed. "Are you okay?" Applejack asked it. "Stand strong, I believe in you!" Treecko mustered all of his might to get up and glared its eyes, at Roggernola, who prepare to use Power Gem. "It's Power Gem!" Twilight exclaimed. "Now, Treecko, use Quick Attack." Treecko charged at Roggenola and send it back a little. "Now, I can see why its ability is called 'Sturdy Body', now Quick Attack one more time!" Roggernola countered with Take Down and both Treecko and Roggernola kept colliding with each other. "Don't give up, keep at it!" Applejack said encouraging him as everyone was amazed by the battle. "Now this what I called showing your grit," Rainbow said. "You got this, Treecko!" Bonnie and Pinkie cheered. "Give it everything you got, Crush Claw!" Treecko slashes at Roggenola with its sharp claws that send it the air then fired Energy Ball giving it serious damage the Roggenola was on its back and couldn't get up. "Now, go Pokéball!" Applejack threw a Great Ball at it and Roggernola was captured, the ball blinked red then it stopped. "Great horned Tooley! I caught a Roggernola!" Applejack exclaimed as she and Treecko high-fived each other.

"Applejack." "Pinkie Pie." "Fluttershy." "Jaden." "I'm Bonnie." "Serena's my name. Hi there." "I'm Trixie and my partner is Umbreon." "I'm Harlod, and mine is Flecthider." ... "So, Harlod is this your first time challenging the Battle Chateau?" Sunset asked as the group arrived and entered. "Yep, first time doing it." "The Battle Chateau welcomes you with open arms." A maid and a butler greet them. "So, how does it work?" Rainbow asked. "First and foremost, the Battle Chateau refers to trainers as knights," The butler answered. "Knights, what an appropriate title for trainers battling in a castle," Clemont chimed. "True, then each of every knight has a noble title bestowed upon them for every victory at the Chateau, I wish you the best of luck, young Harlod in earning your noble title." "Allow me, to show the Battle Chateau sitting room. Each time you visit you have the honor of choosing a battling adversary." As she opens the doors, the room revealed several trainers. "So everyone here is a knight?" Rarity asked. "Yep, a great place to hang out, trade stories, and look for opponents." "So you can battle who you want?" Rainbow asked. "Not exactly," Trixie said. "You have the same noble title." Then Swellow pecks her shoulder. "What's up, pal?" Rainbow asked as Swellow pointed to someone climbing the walls. "What's the guy doing up there?" "And who is he?" Applejack asked. "Oh, yeah, his name is Axl, he always climbs walls." "Any challenger willing to take me on," Trixie offered until a white glove touched her. "I shall accept your challenge Lady Trixie, my name is Lady Fleu, how do you do?" "The honor's all mine." "I look forward to our battle." "May Trixie and Fleu proceed to battle, all others may watch from the outside terrace." As everyone gathers, the door opens up to be Viola which Axl, waved at her, with her waving back. "Wait a minute that's Ash and the others," She saw them. "This quite the atmosphere," Jaden said looking at the battlefield. "Check out the capes, they look dashing," Rarity exclaimed as Cottnee was on her head. "Nice to see you, dear." Meanwhile, on the battlefield, both Trixie and Fleu had their Pokéballs made contact as stand on their respective ends. "To a good battle." The battle of Lady Trixie and Lady Fleu is about to begin. May both battle under the code of Chivalry. "Swanna, center stage." "Dusknoir, out!" "Both of them are so cute!" Bonnie exclaimed. "A Dusknoir and a Swannna." As Applejack and Fluttershy scanned their Pokédexs with Fluttershy's having butterflies and being green. Swanna. The White Bird Pokémon and the evolved form of Ducklett. When one of them starts to dance it alerts the others to follow suit. Dusknoir. The Gripper Pokémon. Dusknoir it said to travel between the human and spirit worlds. "Who you think going to win?" Zane asked Twilight. "Not sure, but this Trixie, and knowing her, she always has a trick or two in her sleeve," Twilight replied. "Strange she didn't go with Umbreon since a Dark-Type Pokémon is effective against Ghost Pokémon." "Now use, Aqua Jet!" "Use, Thunder Punch!" Swanna came right at Dusknoir at serious speed, but Dusknoir counter with an electric punch that made contact. "What just happen?" Serena asked. "The power of Ghost Pokémon," Rainbow said. "There always tricky being able to appear and disappear." "Not to mention, Thunder Punch is super effective to Swanna who is Water and Flying Type," Clemont said. But Swanna regains her surroundings and delivers the Aqua Jet to Dusknoir. "That Aqua Jet was powerful," Pinkie exclaimed then Viola tapped on Sunset's shoulder. "Yoohoo." "Oh, Viola." "Hey there, who would thought I would run in with you and the others." "What are you doing here?" "I love the Chateau, actually I have the noble title of Duchess. It's the female equivalent of Duke." Meanwhile, on the battlefield, Dusknoir fainted while Swanna squealed in enjoyment. Dusknoir cannot battle, the victor is Lady Trixie and Swanna. "Call it," Twilight said as Axl fell down. "What the what!?" "Not again," Viola groaned. "Note to self, never applause while climbing," Axl sleepily said. "But I couldn't help myself, it was to show my respect for a fine battle." "But, Axl, if you felt that why didn't you come down first?" "Because the wall refuses to let me go, the walls here are smooth. they draw me to them, you do see the delicate beauty of Chaetau's walls don't you." "Talk about their beauty all you want, I never understand the appeal of walls." "So you know this guy, Viola?" Twilight asked. "His name is Axl, he's never seen a wall around he didn't love. also, he's strong." Making Ash and Pikachu intrigued. "If not any problem, I like to battle you please," Ash requested. "So, what's your title?" "Pika!" "My noble title is Duke." "Here, here, let us proceed to debut battle involving the two knights who have come here for the first time today." "New knights?" "Yeah, he's talking about us," Harold exclaimed. ... Please give our two young knights a round of applause for their first battle. Everyone clapped for Ash and Harold. "So, Viola, I heard you battle against Ash." "He's is a gutsy trainer, but so he's Pokémon. They're quite amazing. Once you see his passion and drive, I'm sure you'll agree." Ash and Harold, whoever wins this battle will be awarded the noble title of Baron. "Right!" Both replied. Then let;s get underway. "To a good battle!" Both of them said as touched their Pokéball and then went to the corner. "Ready, Pikachu, get in there!" As his best buddy leaped into action. "Hold up, what was in his Pokéball?" Trixie asked. "That's Pikachu's Pokéball," Twilight explained. "He doesn't like being inside it, so it stays out." "This is our first battle here and I want to win it you." "Pikachu Pika!" "And here's mine!" Harold threw out his Pokéball revealing a Torkoal "Tor!" "So, he's a Fire-Type user! No matter, we got this!" "Don't count your chickens before they hatch." Then Battle Begin Ash vs Harold 1v1 Single Battle "Okay, you Thunderbolt!" "Hide in your shell, and dodge it!" As Pikachu fired the Thunderbolt, Torkoal retracted into his shell and slid across the battlefield to avoid it. "You're getting off that easy, Iron Tail!" Pikachu slam the shell with Iron Tail making him spin out of control but quickly recover. "As usual, Ash likes to start off strong and fast," Twilight mentioned. "Now, use Shell Smash!" Torkoal shouted as he exhausted smoke from his shell. "What's Shell Smash?" Bonnie asked. "It's a move that breaks Defense, but in return make his Attack go up," Rainbow said. "Not wasting any time, I see." "Now, Flamethrower!" Torkoal fired a blast of fire at Pikachu. "Quick dodge, then Thunderbolt!" Pikachu dodges the Flamethrower and used Thunderbolt which scored a direct hit. "Impressive! But now use Blast Burn!" "Before he has a chance. Electro Ball!" As Coal Pokémon prepare to use Blast Burn, Pikachu fired Electro Ball that scored a direct hit, which him to fall down and fainted. Battle over, Pikachu wins! "Not bad Torkoal, now take a good rest," Harold return it to his Pokéball. "Thank you, very much," Both bowed to each other. "Bummer that I lost, but congrats." Both of them shook hands for the excellent battle. "A picture to mark your first victory, here," As Viola prepare to take a picture of Ash and the others without realizing the white glove was on her shoulder. "A white glove," Pinkie gasped. "That only means someone wants to challenge you." "I was wondering when you were going to ask? Hi, Axl." "Duchess Viola, I like to challenge you to a battle." "And I accept." Very much later "Too a good battle," Both said as they tap their Pokéballs. "Everybody, out!" Ash and the others called further their Pokémon "Everyone, let's cheer for Viola!" The Chateau Pokémon Battle between Duchess Viola and Duke Axl will now commence, both only need one more victory, so whoever wins this battle will ascend to become Grand Duke or Duchess. The Highest title is possible. "Alright, Sunskrit let's go!" "Surskit!" "It's Surskit!" Fluttershy exclaimed. "Lairon, you're on!" "Laio!" It roared proudly. "It's huge!" Bonnie exclaimed. "Lairon, it's Steel and Rock Type!" Rainbow said. "It's amazing," Serena scanned it. Lairon. The Iron Armor Pokémon. It habitually shows off its strength with the size of sparks it creates by ramming its steel body into boulders. Begin Duchess Viola vs Duke Axl 1vs1 Single Battle "Now, Surskit, use Ice Beam! Surskit froze on the battlefield and begin to skate. "I thought you use your strategy, speed is your specialty, but I'll stop you in your tracks! Use, Rock Tomb!" "My Surskit, won't be stopped that easily!" Lairon created several boulders and surround the battlefield. "What's going with that Rock Tomb?" Ash asked. "It's controlling the boulders," Trixie said. "Axl must train it to do that," Harold added. "Something tells me, that Axl is no ordinary trainer," Rainbow said. "Surskit, Bubble Beam!" Surskit blasted the boulders and skated away but the Rock Tomb had it trapped. "Protect!" It created a shield avoiding the attack shocking both Lairon and Axl. "You dodge it well." "Now use Signal Beam!" Surskit fired Signal Beam at Lairon. "Use Water Pulse!" Lairon counted with Water Pulse resulting in a standoff. "Now get closer!" As Surksit got closer, Lairon got faster as well. "It getting faster!" "Lairon is out mauvering Surskit!!" "Your power and speed have improved." "Your too kind." "Ice Beam!" Surskit fired Ice Beam as Lairon's legs stopped in it tracks. "Jump!" Lairon jumped above Surskit breaking free of the ice. "What a jump!" Applejack exclaimed. "Now Rock Tomb!" Lairon fired Rock Tomb and completely trapped Surskit. "It's over, Flash Cannon!" Lairon fired Flash Cannon which scored a direct hit and after the smoke clears, Surskit was downed. Lairon wins. "You really well, Surskit," Viola returned it to its Pokéball. "You battle well, Axl, and your a Grand Duke now," "All because of Lairon's hard work. You earn it buddy." "Impressive," Zane exclaimed. "That Rock Tomb was epic." "Not to mention strong," Bonnie said. "There in a league of their own," Fluttershy said. ... "Axl?" Ash approached him. "Yes." "That battle was the best ever, I want to raise my tittle just I can battle you some day." "It is a tough climb, but I'll here... So I been told that you been challenge serval gyms. "Yeah." "Then it's more than likely we will be battling again real soon." "Come again?" "I just realize, Axl is the Cyallge Gym Leader," Rainbow exclaimed making everyone gasped.

Pokévison Debut!Welcome back Pokévison Live, Time for rankings we reached number 4 of our Top 10, and it Snow-capped Onix. "Never seen Pokévision before?' Ash asked as the gang watched it. "That's amazing since everyone knows about it," Rarity exclaimed. "Pokévision refers to promotional videos created by Trainers themselves." "Awesome, that sounds cool I wish knew what that meant?" Ash asked as the others sighed. Next we bring you video number 3 which is: Psyduck at Twilight. "Pokévision is a way for trainers to introduce their Pokémon," Serena explained. "Psyduck is such a cutie pie!" Bonnie exclaimed. "Dedenne!" Number 2. The Beauty of Joy. "It also can show the bond between trainer and Pokémon like this video does." "You see, trainers upload their videos to an online viewer website and the Pokévision Top Ten is based on the viewings rankings," Clemont finished. And now for this week's video number one, it's Aria and Fennekin's Life of an Idol! "I knew Aira would be number one!" Bonnie exclaimed. "Of course, they would after those two had appearances of Number 1's they made their debut as a pop duo and became Pokémon pop stars!" Jaden explained. "Chespin!" Chespin was lovestruck while Fennekin pouted. "Aria's Fennekin is so cute," Fluttershy exclaimed. "No, offense. Serena." "No matter, my Fennekin is cute," Serena said as she hug her Pokémon. "For sure, both you and Cottenee are amazing!" "Chim!" "Cott!" "You know I'm pretty sure you can rent all of the equipment you need to make Pokévision videos right here," Zane said. "Really?" Bonnie asked. "Perfect, Me and Rarity will make our debut Pokévision video," Both girls hive-fived each other. With our heroes arriving at a Pokécenter en route to Cyllage City, Serena and Rarity have decided to make their debut Pokévision video. "I have always known I would be making Pokévision video if I ever got Pokémon." "And it's a dream come true," Rarity said. "I wanna make one with Dedenne!" Bonnie said. "But I think, you forgot, that Dedenne isn't your Pokémon," Clemont reminded her. "Alright, I'll make Pokévision video of you," Bonnie said making him gasp "Ash, will you help me with ours?" Serena asked. "The thing is I want to do some special training so I can be ready for my battle with Axl," Ash said. "Really?" "Yeah, if don't have a strategy to counter Lairon's Rock Tomb there's no way I can win." "Special training is the logical choice." Twilight agreed. "Even with Froakie having the advantage of being a water type. But I can lend a hand with the training." "Count me in," Applejack agreed. "Movie-making time!" Pinkie shouted. Very much later as the crew grabs the gear they headed out and begin Clemont's Pokévision debut. "Okay, we're ready to roll," Fluttershy said as she armed the camera. "Then let's go!" Bonnie exclaimed. "Scene 1, and Action!" "H-Hello there, I'm Clemont, and th-this is..." Clemont stuttered as Chespin got in the camera. "No, no, no, Cut! Chespin you too far out front, and Clemont, I need more energy, your voice is getting softer and softer." "Bonnie, I told you, I'm not good at this so why can make Serena and Rarity's video already?" Clemont groaned. "I got an idea, talk for him," Jaden suggested. "You mean to speak his lines," Bonnie clarifies. "Yeah, we will hear your voice, and all Clemont has to do is match the lips to everything you say." "That might work! Let's try it!" "Scene 1! Take 2!" Twilight said. "Action." "Hello there, my name's Clemont, I'd like to meet my partner Chespin." "Chespin!" "And Bunnebly!" "Bunne!" As Clemont mouthed what Bonnie was saying. "Ugh, I can't stand this type of video!" Clemont sighed. "Don't worry, we'll edit everything later, and we'll make it perfect," Bonnie said. "Now our turn for a video debut!" Serena said as the Pokémon cheered. "Our first shot is where we running through the field," Serena said. "Okie dokie lokie," Pinkie said as she aim the camera. "It looks like it's my time to shine," Clemont smirked a bit. "Because the future is now thanks to science, Clemontic Gear, on!" Clemont revealed a robot with serval movie gear. "I thought we would encounter a situation precisely like this one! I called it the Pokéstar Shooter!" "Pokéstar Shooter?" Rarity and Serena asked. "Boring," Bonnie groaned. "My camera-equipped mobile tripod robot can provide a multitude of shots of Pokéstar Studios, the movie capital of the world." "No wonder he called it The Pokéstar Shooter," Rainbow figured it out. "This device will make you a star!" Clemont exclaimed. "All right, now to get that shot of the girls and their Pokémon running through the field. Meanwhile, Ash, he, Twilight, and the Pokémon were about to do special training. "Okay everyone," Ash spoke up. "If we're going to have a chance to stop that Rock Tomb, we're going to need serious speed. Pikachu's Quick Attack, and Froakie and Flecthling's Double Team will make its attack harder to miss. We'll get your moves in tip-top shape and stop that Rock Tomb. Let's do it!" The Pokémon cheered happily as they heard Serena and Rarity screaming. "That can't be good," Twilight said as Serena and Rarity as they ran from Clemont's invention with the others chasing after them. "Of course, one of Clemont's inventions is going haywire, still I am surprised that he is still able to build given the others." "I know science is amazing," Ash exclaimed. "It's not amazing!" Serena shrieked. "Someone do something!" Rarity said. "Clemont's device is out of control, do something!" Pinkie shouted. "Right, I'll handle it, Pikachu aimed for the robot and used Electro Ball. "Pika Pika Pika Pi!" Pikachu used Electro Ball and fired at the Robot which exploded. "Give us a warning if going to do that!" Serena exclaimed furiously. "I covered head to head with soot!" "But I thought you wanted me to help you out?" Ash asked as Fennekin used Ember on him making him faint. "Okay, Fennekin, that was uncalled for!" Twilight said. "If you remember, Fennekin likes to stay clean." "Fenn!" "But now that I think of it, it would be a good time for a wardrobe change," Bonnie mentioned. "That's a great idea!" Rarity agreed. "And ta-da!" Both Serena and Rarity were in their costume making every awe amazement. "Now that's impressive!" Rainbow and Applejack said looking at them. "Both the Fennekin ears and tail give this outfit charm," Serena explained. "And Flame Decals screams daring and boldness for mine," Rarity said. "So cute," Fluttershy said. "Hey, Ash, please help us with the video?" Bonnie asks him. "But we got special training to do," "Sometimes taking a break can go a long way to focus your training." "When put it like that how can say no." "Yay!" "Okay, this time I'll man the video camera," Clemont said. Hours later "And action!" Pinkie exclaimed. Both the costumed girls and their Pokémon did a pose for their first scene." "The next scene will have the girls and the Pokémon baking goodies together," Clemont said at they were inside a kitchen. "And this is where Pikachu has a cameo role," Serena added. "Pika Pika," Pikachu blushed a little bit. "Are ready to roll?" Clemont asked. "All set," Rarity replied. "And action!" Clemont said as Serena started to bake. "Pikachu powdered sugar, please," She requested. "Pika!" Pikachu started to walk but lost his balance dropping all over himself and Fennekin. "Fennekin!" "We're sorry about that," Ash apologized only to have an Ember being shot in his face. "I guess I just can't win." "Pika." "Okay, and cut." Much later "It looks like Fennkin is not mad anymore," Rainbow said as Serena brushed Fennekin's fur. "Staying clean sure makes her happy," Applejack asked. "Fennekin is always grooming herself because dirty is so upsetting," Serena explained. "I think you're a bit like that," Sunset mentioned. "Both you and Rarity." "Who doesn't like being clean," Rarity chimed, "It was to look our best and grooming is always a blast." "You two make quite a pair," Twilight said. "Espeon!" "And cut!" Clemont stops the scene. "We got everything we need," Sunset said. "So now, we go and get that nice man to edit it all for us," Bonnie said without any of them knowing that Team Rocket was watching them from an alleyway. "Looks like the Twerps have Pokévisoin of their brains," James said. "Being a professional actor, the twerps are making a movie mess," Jessie said. "Let's use that mess to our advantage," Duke suggested. "Use it?" Aria asked. "Use what?" Sonata asked. "Just follow my lead," Duke said taking charge. "We sure to succeed!" James said. "Woobuffet!" "What do you mean the editing machine is broken!?" Rainbow exclaimed as they heard the news. "It can be," Zane said. "It's true, I only left the room for a moment but when I came back in it was broken," The man said. "What are we going to do?" Rarity asked. "It is possible to leave it as it is," Ash suggested. "If we use raw footage it will be a disaster," Clemont said. "Pokévison Production anyone?" A voice causes the gang to go outside. "Inexpensive but reliable." "Pokéstar quality and very flexible, get videos styling right here!" "We are the Pokévision Rocketeers. Experts of Pokéstar Stuidos." "And we decided to breach your town with greatness. "Trainers who want their Pokévision Production Primo get top-quality treatment in our studio." "So your a Pokévision Proucdtion company?" Jaden asked. "Observe." As the crew let them inside. ,,, "The proof of our prowess to be believed," As they showed them a small clip. "And Roll it!" "Get ready to be dazzled!" The clip showed of quality of the Pokémon and most of them were impressed. "I have never seen anything like this," Rainbow said. "Yeah I'm kinda glad," Fluttershy agreed. "At least they edited and a have soundtrack," Twilight said. "If not any trouble can you edit our video?" Serena asked. "We thought you never asked?" "We already have the footage, so we need it to be edited and sound added," Sunset showed them the memory card. "What!? Who do you posers think you are!? I'm a refined make-up artist and a great actress. So there." "I'm a great Pokévison producer, Jamesettie." "And I'm a good director, Steel Meo." "There is no way we use amateur footage from a couple of log-hoods." "There is no dispute, we must reshoot." "Now, we need these guys." The crew grabbed their Pokémon. "Okay, but what about us?" Zane asked. "And what going to use for costumes?" Rarity asked. "It would be great to see you guys work," Jaden said. "All costumes and scenery will be computerized. So no worries." "And we need complete focus. So there be no there peeking." "Now chill and wait out here." "Something fishy going on about this," Rainbow suggested. "Agreed, let's take a look," Jaden said as they went backstage only to find an empty room. "Where did they go?" Fluttershy asked then the group the Pokémon screamed. "Up there!" Pinkie said seeing them inside a glass cage. "There is only one group of jerks who would pull this stunt," Rainbow growled. "Prepare for trouble, your vision is good." "Too bad, your heads are made out of woods." "To protect the world from devastation." "To untie all people within our nation." "To denounce the evils of truth and love." "To extend our reach to the stars above," "Jessie." "James." "Adagio." "Aria." "Sonata." "Duke." "And Clyde." "Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!" "Surrender now or prepare for a cinematic fight," "Meowth that's right!" "Wobbuffet," "Murkow!" "Houndour!" "Team Rocket! Not you jerks!" "Something tells me that you guys had something to do with the editing machine!" Applejack said. "Will never know," Duke said. "Give Fennekin back!" "Chimchar!" "Dedenne, too!" "Lunatone!" "Espeon!" "And Pikachu!" "Nope, we're flying high!" Clyde shouted. "Bye!" All of them said as their balloon created smoke. "That's what you think! Swellow! Crobat! Let's roll!" Rainbow called for her flying duo. "Swell!" "Cro!" "Follow Team Rocket's Balloon!" Rainbow requested. Meanwhile "To the Pikachu, we've been chasing for a long," Sonata giggled. "Let's not forget we were able to catch the other twerp Pokémon for little more than a song," Jessie added. "Team Rocket strong!" Aria exclaimed. "With that little project off the table, time to start work on our next Pokévision production!" "Are you serious!?" Duke and Meowth shrieked. "But we already wrap that project," James told her. "I'm an actress and an actress must act, so off we go a brand new Jessliana video, now," Jessie declared with most of them sighing. Moments later... "Acting, it the craft of the lifetime, to be or not to be the greatest actress of all that is the question?" Jessie said. "Whether she's lost her mind?" Adagio asked. "The jury out on that one," Meowth replied. "Wobb!" Not knowing any of them Swellow and Crobat found and flew back to the others. "Did you guys find Team Rocket?" Rainbow asked with both nodded. "Good lead the way." Back to Team Rocket's location. "Here we go!" Pikachu said as he used Iron Tail as the glass started to crack. "Now we're getting somewhere!" "We're next!" Chimchar said as he and Dedenne used Tackle and Flame Wheel and started to crack! "We're almost there!" "Allow us!" Fennekin used Hidden Power, Espeon used Psybeam and Lunatone used Ice Beam and the trap was destroyed. "Awesome let's blow this joint!" Pikachu said as ran out of the cave only for Fennekin to stay behind along with Chimchar. "What's wrong?" Espeon asked. "I'm not crossing, I'll get my paws dirty!" Fennekin exclaimed. "Talk about, clean freak!" Pikachu groaned. "You said it," Dedenne and the others agree. "Guys, you're okay!" they heard Zane's voice as the gang found them. "Why isn't only raining over there?" Applejack asked. "It looks like the twerps have crashed the set!" Meowth shouted. "We got Pokémon problems!" Duke told Jessie. "What, can't you see I'm busy making movie magic up here, take Pikachu and the poultry Pokémon." "She is good at acting like a fool," James said. "Wait where's Fennkien and Chimchar?" Fluttershy said. "I should've known Fennekin hates to be dirty like me," Serena said. "And Chimchar's is at her side." "We got to do something," Rarity implied as they ran toward them. "Oh, no you don't!" Aria called out her Simisear. "Simisear, use Gunk Shot on both of them!" Simisear used Gunk Shot and caused both girls to fall down on their knees. "Who cares about dirty clothes, Fennekin has always been there to protect me." Serena said as she help her up. "Your cue Pumpkaboo, Shadow Ball!" Pumpkaboo popped out and used Shadow Ball. "Quick, Gardevoir Thunderbolt!" Zane shouted as Gardevoir used Thunderbolt to null the Shadow Ball. "I don't care if dirty or not this time is my turn to protect you!" Fennekin found her confidence and she and Chimchar ran to their trainers. "Thank goodness you're okay," Serena was relieved. "Kin!" "Your fur is a mess." "Slumga, show the twerps we will not be shunned!" Duke exclaimed as Slugma used a Flamethrower. "Sandile, Rock Blast!" Pinkie shouted. Sandile fired the attack canceling each other out. "The job of this great actress is to show this clueless twerpette the ropes! Pumpkaboo, Use Frustration on them now!" Pumpkaboo charged at them with a full-on Frustration attack, both the Fire types ready them and counterattack with Chimchae doing Inferno and Fennekin with stronger flame. "Holy moly, it's Flamethrower!" Twilight exclaimed as the two fire types move struck Pumpkaboo and right into Staraptor. "Amazing, you just learn Flamethrower, great job!" "Kin!" "Let's wrap this up, Swellow, Crobat, Air Slash, and Hyper Beam!" "Marshstomp, Water Gun!" Jaden called his partner. All three Pokémon launch their attacks at Team Rocket which send them flying. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" Team Rocket disappeared out of sight! "We did it!" Bonnie and Pinkie cheered. ... "This is going to be great," Pinkie exclaimed as the video was about to begin. Hi, I'm Serena and this is my partner Fennkein along with my best friends Rarity and her partner Chimchar. We love making sweet treats and love eating them. We also like to dress and look our best. If you see us around please stop and say hi, okay? "You both looked so great," Twilight said as the others applauded. "Pretty nice," Jaden added. "It was really awesome," Ash exclaimed. "Pika!"

"There it is, Pikachu," Ash looked over at the gym. "Can't wait to challenge Axl so we can beat the Cyllage City Gym and get that badge." "And of course, Ash is sure he's going to win," Twilight chuckled a bit. "What's your strategy for stopping the Rock Tomb?" "Wait and see, Twilight," Ash told her as they made their way to the gym. A long journey and lots of training have brought Ash and the rest of our heroes to his second Gym badge challenge in Cyllage City. But will all the training be enough? "So, Rarity, are you excited about Ash's gym battle?" Applejack asked her. "I am, Applejack, after all, the last he had was thrilling," Rarity said. "Uh, just one question, where is the gym?" "All the way up there on that mountain," Serena said pointing to the general location. Moments later, the gang entered the Cyallage Gym. "Wow! So this is the Cyallage Gym," Pinkie said while looking around. "I think?" "This is a gym?" Rainbow asked. "Look at the pretty colors," Bonnie exclaimed. "Axl, it's Ash," He called him as he climbed the wall. "I'm here to challenge you to a Gym Battle. Are you ready?" "Sure, I'm game, I've been waiting for you. Climb on up." "Uh, climb what?" "Pika?" "This wall, of course. The battlefield up at the top," Axl said making everyone gasp. "No way." "Yes, way." "You see, my Cyllage Gym works well with Rock-Type Pokémon. I feel all challegeners should experience my great love of rocks. So I designed the Gym accomplish that by allowing you to climb on your power." "You don't mean all of us, do you?" Fluttershy asked. "Not worry, there's an elevator for spectators. The choice is yours. Now just because you don't scale the wall doesn't mean I won't accept your challenge." "What are you going do, Ash?" Zane asked him. "Climb it, of course," Ash said as he started to climb the rock wall. "Come on, let's take the elevator," Twilight said as they made it to the elevator. Ash continued to climb to the summit then Pikachu jumped off. and then made it with Axl doing the same. Then the others got a look at the battlefield. "There, made it." "Well done. So, Ash, tell me what were you thinking about when you were climbing?" "Huh? Uh, well, I wasn't thinking about anything." "That's perfect. So, what were looking you looking at?" "Huh! Straight up, where I was going." "Excellent. That means you achieved a state of enlightenment. Your mind was crystal clear. Unclouded. Now that you've successfully conquered the wall the next wall you will need to conquer is me. And that's what you came here for, challenger." "Right." "One question? Why do you have challengers climb the wall?" Clemont asked. "So that inner peace can be achieved." "Inner peace?" Rainbow implied. "What's that mean?" Bonnie asked having no clue. "Scaling the wall. It's the best way I know to achieve a state of enlightenment. When I do that, I forget about everything else and the only thing I concentrate on is reaching the top. That is my one and only goal. The only thing I want is to arrive at my destination. As long as there is a wall for me to climb. I will rise to the challenge. I want challengers to achieve the same state of enlightenment when they climb up here to me. But talking time is over, you're ready to do this?" "Yes, I am." Moments later Ash and Axl were standing on opposite sides of the battlefield. "Uh, Rarity, why is Cottonee out?" Bonnie asked. "Since I think Cottneee wanted to see the battle, why not. Besides she's certainly like it." "Cotton!" On the battlefield... Now the battle between Axl, the Cyllage City Gym Leader, and Ash, the challenger from Pallet Town will now begin. The Gym Leader will only use two Pokémon while the challenger will have the use of all the Pokémon he currently has. "I can use all of them?" "That's how the gym operates. I want to see everything that Trainers and their Pokémon can really do." "Got it. As of right now, I got three Pokémon. We'll work together to our best and then I'll that Gym badge." Only the challenger will be allowed to substitute during the battle. So if you please bring your Pokémon. "I've looked forward to your challenge since I first saw you battle back at the Battle Chareau. Now let's see which Pokémon you plan to use to scale the wall and that wall is me. Larion, out!" "Lari!" "So he's gonna use Larion first. In that, I'll do this. Froakie, I choose you!" "Froak!" "Of course, he would go with Froakie since water types are a good matchup against rock types," Zane said. "But, don't let that fool you, Z," Twilight reminded him. "Gym Leaders are ready for when the matchup doesn't favor them. Knowing Axl, he won't make this easy for him." Alright. Let the Battle begin. Axl vs Ash 2vs3 Handicap Battle "Okay, Froakie, Water Pulse." "Use yours." Froakie attacks Larion with a pulsing blast of water where Larion did the same but Larion's Water Pulse did damage to Froakie. "Are you okay Froakie?" "Froakie!" "Good, let's go!" "Rock Polish!" Larion polishes its body to reduce the drag. "Larion has increased its speed," Jaden said. "I can already see what your strategy is, Ash, you're aiming to attack Larion's body but can you deal with its speed? Chase after it." Larion did its best as he tail Froakie from behind but Froakie stay one step ahead. "Froakie, stay calm and use Double Team!" Froakie created clones of himself and circle around Larion making it confused. "A speedy Double Team, indeed. But it isn't gonna help one bit against our next move." "Here it comes!" "Let us show you the true power of Rock types. Use Rock Tomb!" "This is it, let's see if all that training came off," Rainbow said. "You can do it, Froakie!" Fluttershy cheered. "Froakie, watch carefully then, jump!" Larion created several boulders and all came down just as the Froakies jumped up. "That should end your Double Team. Now let's see if you can escape the Rock Tomb." "Now Froakie, show them what all that training was for." Just as the clones disperse the real one kept jumping the Rock Tomb. "Keep on jumping, higher!" Froakie was soon at sky level. "How is this possible?" "We saw that Rock Tomb at the Battle Chateau. And I knew we'd have to beat it for me to earn a badge. So we did some special training to come up with a way to counter that move." "That is impressive." "It's called the Froakie Rock Tomb Climb." "That's a good one," Pinkie wrote it down. "That should give Ash lots of confidence," Clemont said. "Now follow it up, with Water Pulse!" Froakie fired Water Pulse right at Larion's blind spot causing serious damage. "Quick, Take Down!" Larion came right at Froakie with a full-on charge. "Dodge it, quick!" Froakie jumped over it, barely avoiding it. "Okay, now get on Larion's back!" "Larion, shake Froakie off!" Larion tried to shake it off, but Froakie hang on tight. "Hang on tight," Zane encouraged it. "Now Finish it with Water Pulse." Froakie jumped up and use Water Pulse scored a KO'd on it. Larion is unable to battle. Froakie is the winner! "Alright! The Froakie Rock Tomb Climb rocked it hard!" "Yes! The training paid off!" Rainbow exclaimed. "You were so great, Froakie!" Rarity cheered. "So climbing the Rock Tomb does not only avoid it but also gives the aerial advantage since most Rock Types can't jump that well and using Water Pulse in close range works just as well," Twilight said. "Thanks. You did great, Larion, now take a good rest. You are quite a surprise, Ash. It's exactly what Viola warned me about. She advised me not to take you lightly and expected the unexpected and she was right." "The best defense is a good offense. That's the way I battle." "He may best Larion, but I got a feeling his next one will make this not easy," Sunset said. "Time for my second Pokémon, Barbaracle, out!" Barbaracle came out and let out a shout. "Bar!" "Whoa, his second Pokémon is that!" Rarity exclaimed while Pokédex. Barbarcle. Collective Pokémon. Having an eye on each palm allows it to keep watch in all directions. In a pinch, its limbs start to act on their own to ensure the enemy’s defeat. "Look like we're gonna have to avoid the arms." "I hope Ash knows that Barbarcle is Rock and Water type," Jaden said as Cottneee closed its eyes. "I guess you think it's strong too," Rarity said to it. Does the challenger wish to make a substitution now? "No thanks. I'm going to stick with Froakie, okay?" Alright, let the battle begin! "Let's give it everything we've got! Double Team!" Froakie started to move and use Double Team and created clones of itself and circled around the Collective Pokémon. "Barbaracle, use Slash!" Barbaracle sharpens its claws and strikes repetitively at the clones. "Froakie. You and Ash can do it," Bonnie cheered. "What power," Pinkie exclaimed. "Here we go, use Bubble!" The Froakies used Bubble causing severe damage. "No matter what you throw will overcome it!" "I wouldn't be overly confident, Barbaracle jump!" Barbaracle jumped right at the Froakies' level "What a jump!" Applejack said. "Here it comes," Sunset said. "Draco Meteor!" Barbaracle cause comets to be summoned down from the sky and right at them. "Froakie, no!" Ash said while Froakie was out. Froakie is unable to battle. Barbaracle wins! "Not only Barbaracle is strong it can use a Dragon-Type move like Drago Meteor!" Zane said. "Okay, Froakie, return. That was an awesome job!" "Pika!" "So, what do you think of my Barbaracle? I'm especially proud of its strong legs and its Draco Meteor is the best of the best. How do you plan to climb against that?" "Barbaracle!" "You know what I think? The stronger the opponent the more fun the battle. I'll deal with any wall you put up for me to climb. Alright, Fletctling, I choose you!" "Flect!" "A Flying-type?" "Flecthling, Razor Wind!" Flecthing created blades of wind launched at Barbarcle. "Counter, with Night Slash!" Barbarcle used Night Slash to null the Razor Wind. "Did it slash right through it?" Serena asked. "Yes, its arms are very strong," Jaden implied. "Alright, Flecthling, Double Team!" Flecthling created copies of itself making Barbarcle confused. "It's all or nothing, now!" "Steel Wing, let's go! Fly straight in!" All of them used Steel Wing and headed straight it. "Cross Chop!" Barbarcle jump once more to avoid the Steel Wing. "It jumps again, that completely counters against aerial advantage!" Rainbow said. Then it used to deliver a double chop at most of the copies while the real one ducked underneath it made contact but Barbarcle quickly counters it, knocking it out. Fletchling is unable to battle. Barbarcle is the winner. "Just like that, it all comes down to this," Rainbow said. "Flecthling, return. You were great out there." "Pika Pika." "Alright, buddy, it's up to now. You can do it." "Pika!" "So it seems arrived at our final battle." "I know what all of Barbarcle's moves are. All I've got to do is win." "Your spirit is strong. Although Rock Tomb Climb is quite creative it won't work with Draco Meteor. Also, Pikachu is an Electric Type, while Barbarcle is weak against it, but he'll hang in there." "Okay, bring it on! Pikachu, Quick Attack!" "Slash!" Pikachu lunged at Barbarcle with Quick Attack, then Barbarcle prepare to use Slash. "Jump, Pikachu!" Pikachu jumped over Barbarcle avoided the Slash. "Draco Meteor!" Barbarcle prepared to use Draco Meteor. "Iron Tail, go!" Pikachu deliver a huge strike at Barbarcle with Iron Tail then meteors came down. "Look out!" "Pikachu's going to get hit." "You think so? Pikachu jump is as high as you can. Now, go into Draco Meteor Climb." Pikachu used Iron Tail and vaulted over it. "From Rock Tomb Climb to Draco Meteor Climb no matter what happens, you can never count out the bond between Ash and Pikachu." "Look at that! Barbarcle, Cross Chop!" Barbarcle jumped up and prepare to use Cross Chop. "Keep using Iron Tail." Pikachu once again used Iron Tail and collided with Barbarcle's Cross Chop then they landed. "Excellent. Quite well-executed." "We keep on getting stronger even while we're battling." "And an exciting battle it is. To show my respect for your passion I'm going to finish this with my favorite move, Night Slash!" "Well, I'm ready for it!" Barbarcle used Night Slash and came right at Pikachu. "Counter with Iron Tail!" Both of them clash with each other then Pikachu strikes the Iron Tail from behind knocking it to the ground. "Now, I'll wrap this up with my favorite move." "Here it comes..." "Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" Pikachu used Thunderbolt on Barbarcle's back scoring a huge hit and making it dazed. Barbarcle is able to battle. Pikachu is the winner. Which means the victor goes to Ash, the challenger. "You were so awesome! Pikachu, we won!" Then Pikachu fell asleep. "I can't believe it's actually sleeping," Rarity exclaimed. "He won!" Rainbow and Zane high-fived each other. "That certainly turned into a heated and fearsome battle didn't it," Axl said to Barbarcle."Thank you so very much." "Bar!" "Your Rock Tomb climb really surprised me but the biggest surprise of all was having Pikachu use Thunderbolt which shouldn't be that effective since Barbarcle is Rock and Water Type. "Everyone was awesome." "Pika!" "Ling!" "Fro!" "This is a victory for all three of you." "Wonderful! By working together you all managed to scale what is known as the Cyllage City Gym Battle. As a symbol of that, I present to you the Cliff Badge," Axl showed show Ash it and then handed it to him. "Thank you so much, Axl. We did it Pikachu. All that hard work paid off. Alright! I won the Cliff Badge!" "Pika!" "Ling!" "Fro!" "Congrats, on the win, it was awesome," Sunset said then look around. "That's weird, where's Sandile?" "There it is," Bonnie saw Sandile as it was holding something in its mouth. "What is it?" Rainbow asked. "Only way to find out," Pinkie said then pulled it out of Sandile's mouth. "I don't believe it's Sun Stone!" Zane exclaimed. "A what now?" "A Sun Stone is a rare type of stone that some Pokémon evolve like Cottonee into Whimsicott." "You don't say," Rarity exclaimed then Cottonee saw it and grab it out of Pinkie's hand, and started to glow. "Oh my stars, it's happening! "This is amazing," Bonnie said as Cottonee evolved into Whimsicott. "It's so cute," Serena exclaimed then use Pokédex. Whimsicott. The Windveiled Pokémo. Like the wind, it can slip through any gap, no matter how small. It leaves balls of white fluff behind. "Wow, you're beautiful," Rarity said then hugged it. Much Later... "So tell me, Ash, have you already decided which Gym you'll challenge for your third Kalos Gym Badge?" "Nope. Guess I'd better start thinking about that." "I've got an idea. I know the perfect place we should go to next. The Shalour City Gym. There's the Tower of Mastery nearby and I've always wanted to go see it," Serena suggested it. "Yes, Shalour City. Good choice. It's quite nice." "Shalour City sounds good to me." "I think you'll have quite a different battle experience at the Shalour Gym than your typical battle." "What do you mean by that? Twilight asked. "Trust me, you'll find out when you get there, but I can guarantee you another challenging and fierce wall to climb." "Great. Then I'm going to Shalour City for my next badge." "And that's that." "More adventures." "This should be fun. I'm wondering what kind of Gym it is." "One more thing. Let's have a rematch at the Battle Chateau." "You bet." Following a tough battle with Axl, Ash has earned his second Kalos Gym Badge, The Cliff Badge. And for Rarity, her Cottonee evolved into Whimsicott. Now our heroes set their sights on Shalour City as the journey continues.

Chapter 20-Tag Team Trouble Part 1! Rainbow and Lighting!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 20-Tag Team Trouble Part 1! Rainbow and Lighting!As our heroes continued their way to Shaluor City, they made their way to a town called Slackstack where they were holding their annual Tag-Team Tournament which Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Serena, and Jaden all signed up for. Moments later at the town Stadium... "It feels like the Pokémon Legaue!" Rainbow stated. "I can't wait to get this started!" "This is very exciting! Isn't it!" Weclome, you and aspiring Trainers, to the Slackstack Tag-Team Tournament, where you pair and have some fun! As the announcer went on, Jaden look around to see the others trainers. "The trainers look pretty tough, I think we're about some fun around. What you do think, Marshstomp?" "Marsh!" And so buckle up, for the next three days, this stadium will burn with excitement. Both the trainers and the audience cheered. And now to find your tag partner just look for the number and the number next to yours! This will be your tag partner for the duration of the competition! Alright then! Time to see who's who. Make sure you have registration cards. Everyone looked at their cards. Rainbow's card was 15. Serena was 28. Jaden was 16. And Twilight was 23 then there are partner numbers showing up. Rainbow's number was 5, Jaden's was 21, Serena's was 9, and Twilight was 2. "I'm the A block!" "And I'm in the H Block!" Now, using those as a guide, find your Tag Team Partner! With that, the 32 trainers walked around, looking for their partners. A few of them found their partner already. "Um. I'm number 16! I trying to look for Number 21!" Jaden called. "Let's see... where's number 9?' Serena asked looking around. "Well, how are you, number 28?" A boy's voice called out making Serena turn around and smiled. "I'm fine!" Serena exclaimed. "I'm Serena and this Fennekin. What's your name?" "Masquerade is my name, a pleasure to meet you," He smiled darkly making Serena and Fennekin shiver in fear, backing up slightly. With Jaden... "Anyone with 21?" Jaden called because he got tapped by some. "Uh excuse me, are you number 16?" A girl asked him. "Yeah, I'm 16, Name's Jaden." "Great, my name is Star Lilly, looks likes we're partners for the tournament." "Yeah, it looks like we are!" "I guess, Jaden and Serena found their partner," Twilight said then she heard a familiar voice. "Hey, Twiliy! Over here!" Twilight turned to an old face that Twilight knew too well. "Flurry Heart!? Is really you?" She asked. "Yeah, it's me, Twilight! I'm glad to see you again, in 5 years!" Flurry Heart exclaimed while her Meganium came right behind. "A Meganium? That means your Chikorita had fully evolved." "I see your Eevee evolved into Espeon," Flurry Heart said. "Say, where are Ash and Pikachu ?" "There in the stands, I'll introduce you later to my friends. Should we get ready?" "Yes." With Rainbow... "So who's my partner?" Rainbow asked. "Of course, it had to be you," Someone snorted. "Lighting," Rainbow muttered seeing her Rival as well as the others. "I never expected her to be here," Jaden said. "You know her?" Serena asked. "Yeah, I've battled her during my time in Unova, she's pretty good but she doesn't share the glory with the others," Jaden replied. "Talk about luck of the draw," Serena said. The two turned to see Rainbow and Lighting glare at each other. "I guess I got no choice, make sure you don't get in my way!" Lighting snapped. "What do you mean by that, uh hello we have to win this together." Then the announcer came on again. In a Tag Battle the real key to success is the trust of the trainers and their Pokémon which is why the winning team of the Tournament shall receive the beautiful Soothe Bell! A bell that produces the sound that brings peace and joy to everyone who hears it! "Now that's what I call a prize!" Serena said. Alright, by now you found your Tag Battle partners, The battle festivals don't commence until this afternoon! So you have until then to practice with your partner! The screen showed the bracket of the matches. "So, Serena, you're lucky to have been paired with me!" Masquerade smirked. "After careful analysis of every League Battle and including the present, I've calculated the proper formula for assuring that is victory is ours!" "Well, that's great!" Serena said uneasily. "So, Star Lilly should we talk battle strategy," Jaden suggested. "Yes, that good idea," Star Lilly suggested as her Wingll chirped happily. Later... And now let me explain the rules as the kickoff of our first match! Each trainer will use one Pokémon with no time limit! And no substitutions! Whichever team ends up unable to battle is defeated! And the winners will advance to the second round. And our first battle will be in the A Block! So! It's off the Pokémon battlefield! "Fennekin, take stage!" "Slowking, go!" Serena and Masquerade called out their Pokémon as their opponents sent their Pokémon, which were Scyther and Koffing. "Now you go right and bring the offense, and let me worry about defense and try not to think too much," Masquerade said to her. "Yeah, right," Serena muttered. Okay, let the battle begin! Tag Battle Serena and Masquerade vs Volt and Penny "Now, Scyther! Razor Wind!" "Koffing, now, Sludge Bomb!" Scyther unleashed sharp winds toward Fennekin, as Koffing fired the Sludge Bomb at Slowking. "Fennkin! Use Flamethrower!" Fennekin shot her Flamethrower at the Razor Wind which canceled each other out however the Sludge Bomb was still on its way to Fennekin and Slowking. "Now Slowking, Safeguard!" Slowking put up a barrier that null the Sludge Bomb that kept both Slowking and Fennekin safe. "Uh, Clemont was that?" Bonnie asked her big brother. "That was Safeguard, it makes them immune to moves like poison or paralysis," Clemont explained. "Now Koffing! Thunderbolt!" Kofffing fired a strong electric blast at Fennekin and Slowking again. "Quick, dodge it!" "Now, Protect!' Before the Fox Pokémon could dodge, Slowking set another barrier saving from the Thunderbolt. Serena and Fennekin were amazed by the defense of Masquerade. "I told you, I'll take care of the defense. You can do whatever you want, because covering you, no matter what," "Got it!" "Scyther! X-Scissor, let's go!" "Flamethrower before Scyther can do it!" Fennekin fired the Flamethrower landing a direct hit at Scyther making it fall to the ground. "Now, Gryo Ball!" Koffing spun fast at Slowking, and Masquerade sneered. "Psychic!" Slowking stopped Koffing in its track with the Psychic Type move which made Volt's jaw drop as Serena cheered. "Do it, Slowking!" Slowking made one movement with a finger, forcing Koffing to smash at the ground. Koffing fainted!" Both Scyther and Koffing cannot battle! This means the battle goes to Fennekin and Slowking[./b] "That Masquerade is very big on getting defensive, Serena got herself an interesting partner!" Jaden said stated. "They're unstoppable, that's for sure!" Rainbow said smiling then turned to Lighting. "You know, we should be doing something like that!" Then a Fire Spin narrowly missed her and she was knocked down on the floor. "What was that for!?" Rainbow asked. "Give Torchic your suggestions," Lighting scoffed at her. Twilight and Jaden turned to see Lighting's Torchic along with Rainbow. "Torchic? You've been working on your Fire Spin, haven't you?" "Tor!" "A weak Fire Spin from a weak flame! Even if you have no control over it!" Lighting scolded. "Well, I think it was great! Say, why don't we help you two out?" "Sorry, we don't need your help." "You haven't changed a bit, haven't you? Criticizing your Pokémon is only the best thing you do!" Twilight snapped. "Just what kind of trainer are you?" Flurry Heart asked. "Someone that wants to grow stronger, kid! Come on, we're leaving!" Before Lighting was gone, Rainbow asked her something. "Why did you enter this thing in the first place?" "So I meet Fire Type Pokémon!" She answered and then left. In the stands... "What did she mean by meet Fire Types?" Fluttershy asked. "I know what she's talking about," Ash started to explain. "She wants to use her opponent's Fire attacks to juice Torchic's!" "My word that's barbaric!" Rarity exclaimed. "It makes sense," Clemont stated. "But won't that cause pain for the Pokémon if they try to use their opponent's attack only to make them stronger?" Fluttershy asked. "Knowing Lighting she doesn't even care," Zane explained. ' "What kind of trainer does make him, then?" Bonnie asked. "A cruel one that's for sure," Sunset said. Our next match for the first round is D-Block! So we're off to the battlefield! Twilight and Flurry Heart were facing off against Taylor and Marcus. "Hey, Flurry Heart, don't even think about going easy on us!" "Don't worry! Twilight and I won't!" "Surf's up, Prinplup!" "Go, Dusclops!" "Espeon, it's for battle!" "Corphish, it's you!" All four of them called their Pokémon who were prepared for battle. Battle begin! Tag Battle Taylor and Marcus vs Twlight and Flurry Heart "Time to splash it up! Bubble!" "Dusclpos! Will-o-Wisp now!" Prinplup fired Bubble and Duscolps fired Will-o-Wisp at Corphish and Espeon. "Esepon, use Psybeam!" Espeon used Psybeam which broke through and hit both opposing Pokémon. "No way!" "Let's keep the pressure! Quick Attack! "Intercept with Water Pulse!" "Corphish, use Knock Off!" Espeon dodged the Water Pulse and delved a quick strike at Prinplup and Cornphish did a hard slap at Dusclops. "Now, Prinpulp, Drill Peck!" "I don't think so, Attract!" Espeon used Attract on the attack Prinplup stopped it completely and fell in love since their since it's a boy and Espeon a girl. "Duscolps, Psychic!" "Not a chance, Crab Hammer!" Corphish hammered Dusclops with its pincer making the Ghost-type fall down. Dusclops cannot battle! "Now, Use Psybeam, one more time!" Espeon used Psybeam at the lovestruck Prinpulp which hit and Prinpulp was down for the count. Prinpulp cannot battle as well. The winner goes to Espeon and Corphish! "Yes second, round here we come!" Flurry Heart said as she and Twilight high-fived each other. Later the battle of Star Lilly and Jaden and Eddie and Daniel were underway... "Now, Wingull, Blizzard!" Wingull flew up high to prepare the Ice Type move. "Now Yanma! Steel Wing, let's go!" Jaden took note of how Yanma's speed with its Speed Ability. "I think Yanma is going to catch up with that speed!" But it is too late as Yanma's Steel Wing has struck at Wingull. "Now Bagon, Zen Headbutt!" Bagon's head glowed as he charged right at Wingull. "Quick, straight up!" "There's no time! Now, Golurk use Flash Cannon!" Gorluk fired its Flash Cannon which Bagon in its tracks. "What are you doing!? Yanma was doing well!" "Oh yeah, you better counterattack, or we're doomed!" At the stands... "This is no place for those to fight," Ash grumbled. "Whatever the cost, Jaden and Star Lilly has got this in the bag," Sunset said. Back to the battle... "Alright, let's pull together and win this!" "Okay, Wingull Bizzard!" Wingull blew some cold. landing both direct hits at Bagon and Yanma! That powerful Blizzard had both Yanma and Bagon some serious damage! "Bagon, Dragon Breath!" "Now Golurk, use Earthquake!" Gorluk's Ground-type may Bagon unbalanced and it yelled in pain, while Wingull used Aerial Ace and knocked out Yanma. Bagon and Yanma are unable to battle! The winners go to Golurk and Wingull. Later a few matches passed, and it was time for Rainbow and Lighting's battle. The time has come for the last battle of the first round! As in this case, last is certainly the least! "Alright, Jolteon, let's rock and roll!" "Torchic, stand by!" As Rainbow and Lighting called theirs, the other two called theirs as well reveling to Magmar and Rhydon. "Looking Lighting is ready to make her move now, Focus Rainbow, let's strike hard and strike fast!" Rainbow thoughted to her. Now then! Battle begin! Tag Battle Scientist and Cool Trainer vs Rainbow and Lighting "Alright, let's show a Thunderbolt!" Jolteon used Thunderbolt at Magamar instead Rhydon got zapped. "What!?" "I guess you didn't know Rhydon's special ability," "Ability? You mean it has the Lighting Rod?" "Of course, it has it, you have no clue." "Give me a break!" "Magamer! Use Lava Plume! Magamar unleashed hot air of flames around the battle as Rhydon took the hit. "This our chance, Torchic go!' "Even with Torchic being a Fire-Type this fire is going to cause major damage!" "Jolteon, get out of the way!" Jolteon moved out of the way but Torchic braced the Lava Plume. Lave Pulme engulfs Torchic completely! "Now, Fire Spin!" Torchic's firepower was hotter than ever as hit Rhydon. "Nice!" "I knew it, she would do that!" Jaden said while his Magmar and Serena's Fennekin glared at Lighting. "Use Hammer Arm!" Rhydon's Hammer Arm sends Chimchar into the air and slammed to the ground. "Now, Double Kick!" Jolteon used its back legs and strike at Rhydon with force. "It may be an Electric Type, but we have to be careful!" "Right Magmar, Protect!" "Rhydon, Surf, let's go!" As Magmar made a barrier, Rhydon created a giant wave that headed straight for Jolteon and Torchic. "Torchic, Flame Charge!" "What are you doing!?" We're going to lose!" "Is trying she trying to lose on purpose?" Applejack asked. Torchic hesitated a little, before doing the Flame Charge despite Jolteon's warning not to do it! "Torchic stopped your going to get creamed! Wait, I got it, Jolteon, Use Pin Missile on the Surf then use Double Kick !" Jolteon leaped in the air and fired the Pin Missile stopping the Surf and giving a deadly Double Kick to the ground, and fainted. What a move! He covered Torchic and scored a direct hit KO! "What an attack!" "I do it my way! Jolteon, Thunderbolt!" "Torchic, Dig!" Jolteon's Thunderbolt took Magmar by surprise which allowed Torchic's Dig to hit and knocked out Magamar! Magamar and Rhydon cannot battle, Jolteon and Torchic are the winners! And with that, Lighting and Rainbow move on to the second round! In the stands... "I'm glad that they won," Applejack sighed, "But that wasn't an example of teamwork I've seen." "I'm with you, they only won due to their single efforts," Zane added. "But it's the first day, what will happen next time?" "Only time will tell," Ash said as the tournament has just begun. And so, all the first-round Tag Battle matches are finished. Twilight. Flurry Heart, Masquerade, Serena, Star Lilly, and Jaden passed with flying colors, but Rainbow and Lighting's inability to work with each other had nearly cost them.

Chapter 21-Tag Team Trouble Part 2! Torchic's Truth!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 21-Tag Team Trouble Part 2! Torchic's Truth!As our heroes continued their way to Shaluor City, they made their way to a town called Slackstack where they were holding their annual Tag-Team Tournament which Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Serena, and Jaden all signed up for. Twilight was paired with her old friend Flurry Heart, Jaden with Star Lilly, Serena with Masquerade, and Rainbow paired with her rival Lighting Dust. The first round of the Tournament began with Sernea and Masquerade easily won due to Masquerade's formal strong defensive play and Serena's quick thinking. Jaden and Star Lilly were able to pull through as opponents didn't cooperate. And Twilight and Flurry Heart showed compete trust has won theirs. With Rainbow and Lighting, they sent Jolteon and Torchic with some difficulties along the way, both Jolteon and Torchic beat their opponents' Rhydon and Magmar allowing them to advance to the second round. However, both Rainbow and Lighting have some ugly thoughts about each other. How will the tournament go? It was late at night Rainbow, Ash, Applejack, Zane, and Sunset had called out their Pokémon and done some training. "You guys did awesomely! And that's how I want you to battle in the second!" Rainbow grinned at her Pokémon with them smiling in agreement. "Thanks for helping, me with training." "No problem, we've got to be in top form for the Shaluor Gym!" Ash exclaimed. "Pikachu!" Suddenly, just as the training was about to continue they saw something blasting off into the air. "What was that?" Applejack asked. "That was Fire Spin," Sunset replied. "That could only mean," Zane gave it some thought then went on. "Wait up!" Ash yelled as he and the others ran after him. At the Pokémon Center... "As you can see, a Pokémon's potential ability is greatly influenced by the quality of the relationship with its Trainer, which is evidenced by otherwise, unthinkable displays in the powers of their moves and abilities!" Masquerade explained his new formula to Serena, Rarity, and Bonnie. "Sounds great! Though, I don't have a clue about what you said. but sounds like you said the better friends with Pokémon and Trainers are, the better and stronger they get, right?" Serena asked. "Yes, precisely! You do get it!" "Friendship is the key?" Bonnie asked. "I can't wait till I get older!" "Dedenne!" As Rainbow and the others were running to see what caused the fire. Far from them, a beaten-up Torchic was exhausted from the heavy blows she took. Surrounding her, was all Lighting and her Pokémon. Hereacross, Drifblim, Garbodor, and Gothietelle. "Garbodor, Sludge Bomb! Drifbilm, Shadow Ball! Hereacross, Brick Break! and Gothietelle, Energy Ball!" All four of her Pokémon prepared for their attack. They then all unleaded it on Chimchar! "Torchic, Flame Charge!" Torchic took a deep breath and did before creating a giant Flame Charge and stopping all of the incoming attacks. Rainbow, Applejack, Zane, Ash and Pikachu, and Swellow came by to see what had happened. "Lighting! What's going on!?" Rainbow yelled at her but Lighinting ignored her. "Fire Spin, now!" Torchic shot Fire Spin but only to hit Rainbow. "Ahh!" Rainbow went to the ground making Torchic run over to see if Rainbow was okay. In the bushes, Team Rocket was spying on them, concerned about the small fire type. "Obviously, the rude Twerpette is at it again," Jessie said. "Working Torchic to the bone,' James added. "I wish she would lighten up," Sonata said. '"My head," Rainbow groaned as she got up. "Man! You just on keep on getting stronger, you know!" "Torchic!" "We're not done here, Torchic!" Lighting snapped which made Torchic come back for more training making Rainbow more irritated by her rival. "What are doing, Lighting? Why is Torchic the only one getting the hard work!?" Rainbow asked. "It's none of your business." "It is so, we're a team!" "I still don't understand why you entered this thing!" "You wouldn't understand, it's a good chance to give my Pokémon some uses in real combat experience!" "What do you mean!?" Sunset snapped. "You're not that you're pushing your Pokémon way too hard this!?" "Also don't you think you're being rude to other trainers in the Tournament?" Applejack asked. "I needed Torchic to be hit by the Surf, get it?" "But what if Torchic would've lost!?" "Then it would be useless." "Useless?" Zane was shocked by her answer. "Do you realize that Surf is a Water-type move that effective Fire-Type with ease? How do you suppose that makes her useless it's one of her weaknesses!?" "Well, it's more likely the best way to raise Torchic's hidden strength." "If wanted to do that, wouldn't make sense to improve on the strong point." "Give a me break! Spending a second on improving a Pokémon's strong point is a complete waste of time!" "I assume you train all your Pokémon that way?" Ash asked. Only Garbodor smirked as Torchic slumped sadly. "No, this is exactly what Torchic wants." "Torchic is that true?" Rainbow asked receiving a nod from it. "There are other ways to get stronger and how to improve on your power!" Zane explained. "Zane's right. You don't have to do it the hard way," Sunset agreed. "Come on, Torchic, we're leaving," Lighinting ordered. "Torchic..." Rainbow said silently. With Team Rocket... "Man, that Torchic has got it bad," Adagio said. "She ain't going her any mercy," Sonata added. "I just had a thought, perhaps if we get chummy with Torchic, we could wrap out fingers around that Soothe Belle," Jessie suggested. "Well..." The others replied. "Woobbuffet!" Much later, Lighting was training Torchic with harsh training methods. "Hereacross, Megahorn!" Hereacross use horn and attack. Torchin quickly dodged it. "Gothietelle: Energy Ball!" Gothietelle fired Energy Ball that hit Torchic but luckily she braced it. "Shadow Ball!" Drifbilm prepares to use Shadow Ball. "Counter, with Fire Spin!" Torchic try do Fire Spin but the Shadow Ball went too fast and send Torchic to the ground! She did everything she could to get up. "Get up!" Lighting snapped unfortunately with all the heavy blows she took, Torchic couldn't so she stayed down. "Wake it, with Thunder Wave!" Gothietelle, having no hesitation prepared to use Thunder Wave, then suddenly a Shadow Ball stopped Gothietelle in it tracks. All of Lighting's Pokémon and Lighting grew startled by the interference. The one who stopped was Zane's Gardevoir. "Knock it off!" Zane yelled as he and the rest ran over to help the weakened Fire-Type. "You have done more than enough!" Rainbow snapped. "Attacking at the same is bad enough, but making it get with Thunder Wave!? You've lost it!? " Rainbow grabbed Torchic off the ground. "I'm taking Torchic to the Pokémon Center! Got it!" "Be my guest." At the Pokémon Center, Jaden was helping out Nurse Joy and Nurse Redheart with the Pokémon from the tournament then worked on Torchic. "Talk to me, how's Torchic?" Rainbow asked. "Much better, Torchic's need some rest,' Jaden replied. In the hobby, everyone was having a conservation, and Team Rocket listen to it. "So, Torchic went through some tough training, huh?" Jaden asked Lighting. "I'm sure Rainbow told you," she muttered. "I treated it, so she didn't have to tell me a thing. At this point, Torchic will get stronger or be scarred for good. Why do you have to push so hard, anyway?" Jaden asked only for Lighting to be silent. "I'm not because I'm Rainbow's friend, I'm asking because I'm Torchic's friend." "Belive or not, we all want the same thing. I mean it." "I don't get a thing!" Rainbow admitted. "I'll never forget that first day..." Lighting explained on she met Torchic. "I was out and about in the middle of the forest, then I heard a Pokémon shirek. And the shriek was Torchic who running away from couple of Zangoose. It might've been for food, or territory but they wouldn't stop! They managed to cornered it to a cliff." "As the Zangoose made their move, Torchic roared as she acticved her ability Blaze and use ver powerful Flame Charge and easily smashed the Zangoose showing no type of mercy! I never seen a Torchic who's strength and stamina like that and after that show of force, I knew I had to have it, I knew if that I had kind of fire power... I could the win Kalos Legaue for certain! Ever since then, we haven't even come close to duplicate that power!" "I get it. you're trying to recreate the stress of when those Zangoose attacking, by putting it under massive pressure." "I need to Torchic beyond the limit! By recreating that power... Torchic could be strongest of all the Fire Type Pokémon!" "Hold on, Lighiting! You've to let it rest!" Rainbow exclaimed. "You have to! Torchic's health depends on it!" Jaden scolded. "If you intednt to get Torchic back right now, then making a huge mistake!" Bonnie snapped. "Bonnie and Jaden are right, Torchic needs a lot of rest!" Clemont added. "The only reason, you pushing Torchic like this, is because plain impatitnet!" Twlight got in her face. "If you relllay want her to strong as you decsibe then you have to let it rest!" Lighting said nothing and walked out. The next day it was second round of Slackstack Tag Team Tournment... It's just the second day, and we've had over 24 hours of excitement, as already two team have punch to the semifinals, Maserquade and Serena and Jaden and Star Lilly, and last two spots in the semifinals, these last two second-round matches coming up anything can happen!"

Tag Battle Twilight and Flurry Heart vs Kendra and Lillan "We'll take the first move. Decatty, Iron Tail!! "Chansey, Egg Bomb!" Delcatty leaped in the air to land Iron Tail on Corsola, and Chansey thee egg toward Aromatisse!" "Aromatisse, Dodge and used Charge Beam!" "Corsola, counter with Power Gem!" Corsola fired its Power Gem which hit on Decatty's blindside. and Armoatisse's Charge Beam had hit Chasney. "Chasney, Use Double Edge on Corsola!" Chansey charge rentlesly on Corsola, but Twlight was ready!" "Corsola, Bubble Beam, let's go!" Corsola fired Bubble Beam stopped Chansey and it was out! Chansey is unable to battle! "Aromatisse let's finish this with Charge Beam!" "And Corsola you use Power Gem!" Both the Power Gem and Charge Beam made contact and Delcatty was out! Delcatty cannot battle! The winners are Corsola and Aromatisse! And there you have it folks, the winners of the thrid second match is Twlight and Flurry Heart, who is about to move to the semifinals! And now our final battle of second round! Our two teams are poised and ready! So! Pokémon to the battle! "Ninjask, Let's go!" "Ninjask!" Lighting took her Pokébal and threw out a Pokémon that superied everyone. "Torchic, stand by!" In the stands, Ash and the others were shocked even Team Rocket. "Is she lost her marbles. Torchic is too tired to battle!" Bonnie shirekd. "Dedenne!" "Torchic, you to rest!" Rainbow said. "Nin Ninjas!" Ninjask tried to reason with the Pokémon. "Tor Torchic!" Torchic replied, wanting to fight. "Okay..." Rainbow said then turn to Ninjask. "Ninjask, make sure to protect Torchic during the battle!" "Ninjask!" With Team Rocket... "I thought Torchic, was supposed to take a backseat," Jessie thought. "I guess, mean streak didn't get the memo," Aria scoffed. "Not very kind-hearted," James implied. "What heart?" Meowth asked. On the battlefield... "Metagross, out!" One of the strongest Steel Types, Meteagross was sent out. "A bad match-up for Ninjask but since Ninjask knows Shadow Ball which is effective since Metagross is a Psyshic," Jaden explained. "But, Torchic holds, they could win," Star Lilly said. Zangoose! Come Foreward!" The familiar Pokémon that gave Torchic a scare. "A Zangoose!" Lighting smirked, realizing that Torchic might have a chance. "Lighting, we'll take on Zangoose! You take care of the Metagross!" Let the battle begin! Tag Battle Black Belt and Tamer vs Rainbow and Lighitng "Meatgross! Bullent Punch, let's go!" Metagross began to spin with legs. "Torchic, Fire Spin!" "X-Sccissor!" Zangoose got his jumping boost from Metagross and began to over Torchic. "Ninjask, Shadow Ball!" Ninjaske fired Sahdow Ball at Zangoose only to be knocked down. And opposing Pokémon attacks went through. "Now use Psychic on Ninjask!" Metagross used Psyihc and send Ninjask right into Torchic. "Zangoose, Crush Claw go!" Zangoose leap into the air and prepare to use Crush Claw. "Intercpet with Fury Cutter!" Ninjask flew down and stop the Crush Claw from hitting Torchic and send it back! A spleind move by Rainbow as Ninjask stop the Crush Claw! "Metagross, Bullent Punxh!" "Use Flame Charge on Metagross!" Torchic did Flame Charge and struck Metagross before it a had chance to recover. "Our chance is here, Crush Claw!" "Flame Charge, again!" Torchic tried to Flame Charge again, but Zangoose pinned him down. "Now, Fire Spin!" Torchic prepared to use Fire Spin but she got a good look at Zangoose's scary face casuning it to whimper. This look good for Torchic as Zangoose has it completely wedged!" "I guess that's it." What does she mean by that's it? Can't worry about it! Ninjask, you've gotta help Torchic, use Shadow Ball!" Ninjask shot Shadow Ball forcing Zangoose to release Torchic then stumble back as Metagross was back in action. "Zangoose! Fire Blast!" Zangoose use Fire Blast and aim it at Ninjask. "Ninjask!" Torchic got in front and braced the Fire Blast making her fire power grow!" "Give Torchic a command!" Lighting did nothing and turned away. "I got no choice... Torchic use Fire Spin!" Torchic was even more supised that Rainbow gave her a command. "That's right! Now!" Torchic fired the Fire Spin that hit Metagross as he fainted to the ground. I don't believe it, Torchic did Fire Spin but Rainbow gave order! Ninjask's Trainer! "This is insane!" Pinkie gasped. "Unbelivle!" Bonnnie and Clemont had no words. "Quickly, Zangoose! Crush Claw!" As Zangoose charged forward, Ninjask got up and suddenly fired a Hyper Beam that damage it and Zangoose was on the ground, completely knocked out. Metagross and Zangoose are unable to battle! Torchic and Ninjask are the winners! "We did it!" Rainbow cheered. "And you learn how to use Hyper Beam!" We now we have Tag Team, but only win the Soothe Bell.

Semifinal #1 Serena and Masquerdade vs Twlight and Flurry Heart Semifinal #2 Jaden and Star Lilly vs Rainbow and Lighitng "I guess Rainbow made to a third day after all," Bonnie said. "Mircales can happen." ' That evening Lighiting walked out of the stadium taking out Torchic's Pokéball, only for a blue light to come out, meaning Torchic was wild Pokémon. "You are out of here," Lighing Dust snapped. Then Rainbow and rest arrived. "Lighting? So that's the end of your training?" Rainbow asked. "Yeah, that's right. Clearly I need a new Fire-Type!" "Your giving up on Torchic? What happened to the two of you on getting stronger together? All that progress and you'te throwing it away?" Lighting made no answer, and walked away. Torchic lowered her head sadly, as she began to walkway to the wild. Rainbow grew sorry for it, then made her mind. "Hey Torchic! Come with us!" Torchic stopped to see Rainbow, then Lighting suddenly stopped. "Are you sure?" Rairty asked. "Of course! We'll blast and work hard!" Rainbow assured and her Pokémon agreed. "Listen to Rainbow, You can come with us if you want. It's your choice," Fluttershy added. Then Magmar, Fennekin, Chimchar, Quilava, and Flareon all agreed. As the second round come to end.

A Shocking Comeback!As Slackstack Tag Team Tournament rage on Rainbow's Ninjask and Lighting's Torchic were brought together an unlikely teaming of their Trainers. But it's during the Second Round that Lighting was unhappy with Torchic's performance battle with Zangoose decided she had enough and abandon Torchic without warning. During that same moment, after seeing what happen, Rainbow decided to speak up before and sad Torchic had a chance to leave. "Hey, Torchic! Come with us!" Torchic stopped to see Rainbow, then Lighting suddenly stopped. "We'll blast and work hard!" Her Ninjask and the rest of the Fire Pokémon agreed. Rainbow held her hand for Torchic's request. Torchic stared at her bewildered of the kind of request she was giving her, "Torchic come on!" "Chic?" "Nin!" "You see, your way of giving it all you've got is awesome written all over you! I'd love to work with a Pokémon like you! So, what to say?" Before Torchic could, Lighting made the choice. "You two losers deserve each other. Both of you are pathetic!" "Nobody asked you!" Bonnie yelled. "Ignore her, kid," Rainbow told her. "Torchic and I will show how wrong Lighting can be!" Lighting snorted with that response and continued walking away. Torchic looked back at Rainbow feeling teary about what she asked her, rather than forcing him. Torchic broke into a smile and nodded happily. "Tprchic!" Suddenly, an explosion occurred around the gang and their Pokémon! Everyone covered their eyes as they grew startled by the uncalled ambush. "What's going on?!" Applejack asked. "Somebody using Sludge Bomb and Seed Bomb!" Jaden said. "But who?" Then a certain group of laughing came. "Compliments of Pumpkaboo and Sunktank!" Duke laughed. Everyone looked up to see none other than Team Rocket as they grabbed Torchic in the chaos. "Torchic, no!" "Is that Torchic calling for Pikachu, I hear?" "Calling for us might bring you more cheers!" "On the wind!" "Pass the stars!" "In your ear!" "Bringing chaos at a breakneck pace!" "Dashing hope, putting fear in its place!" "A rose by any other name is just as sweet!' "When everything's worse, our work is complete!" "Jessie!" "Adagio!" "Aria!" "Sonata!" "And its James!" "Meowth, Clyde, and Duke, that's our names!" "Putting the losers, in their place!" "Team Rocket!" "In your face!" "Woobuffet!" "Murkrow!" "Alright, Team Rocket! What do want with Torchic!?" Ash snapped. "There's nothing better than bringing some TLC to our hard luck Torchic like us!" James said. "We'll smooth out the rough edges with our hard-edge tactics!" Jessie giggled. "And a couple of clanks from the Soothe Bell and will be chilling!" Duke said sneering. "That's not all! Join in us in the next sixteen minutes, Torchic! And we'll give you your own stanza in the Team Rocket motto!" "Woobuffet!" "Murkrow!" Torchic struggles to get free from Team Rocket's trap. "Poor Torchic!" Serena gasped. "I've had enough of this! How about the rest of you?" Twilight asked and Pokémon nodded. "Pumpakboo!" "Sunktank!" "Sick them!" Adagio and Jessie made their move to attack. Both Pumpkaboo and Sunktank used Seed Bomb and Sludge Bomb to them dead in their tracks. "Tor!" "I think is going to be a good day!" Aria said. "Full of fun, fun, fun! Gotta run!" Clyde grinned. "Getting out while the getting is good!" Duke exclaimed. "Torchic! Don't worry we'll get you out there!" Torchic began to power up her attack. "Oh dear, flaming rage?" Jessie asked. "No! Torchic is stoking her Fire Spin to give our ballon a little push!" James insisted. "Hey! It's nice to see a team player being nice for a change," Sonata said then look down only to see the smirk of the Chick Pokémon. "Or maybe not!" Torchic shot Fire Spin at Team Rocket and their ballon! All of them scream as the ballon went boom. "See? Torchic fits right in!" "Yeah... like a fist in a glove!" "Well, half a groovy day is better than none!" "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" Team Rocket disappeared out of sight! Torchic wailed as she began to the ground. "Don't worry, I'm coming!" Rainbow dived down and catch Torchic in her hands. "Torchic, are you okay?" "Torchic." "Awesome Fire Spin!" Rainbow complimented then took a spare Ultra Bal for the Chick Pokémon to see. "So, what do you say, you want to come with us?" "Torchic!" "Okay, you ready?" She threw the Ultra Ball in the air and caught Torchic inside, it shake for a few minutes then it stopped. "You and I are going to sweet things together!" The next day at the stadium... Here we folks, our first of two semifinals are about to happen. Serena and Masquerade had ridden all to the final four but Twilight and Flurry Heart have shown trust and teamwork but one team to move on!

Flottete and Flygon appeared on Twilight and Flurry's side and Fennekin and Pinsir appeared on Serena and Masquerade's side. "Twiliy, I know Serena is your friend but a spot for the championship is on the line." "Don't worry, I never go easy on anyone, friend or foe," Twilight said. "I suggest we defend first then we counterattack," Masquerade suggested. "Got it!" Serena agreed. Now then! Battle begin! Semifinal 1 Serena and Masquerade vs Twilight and Flurry Heart "Flygon! Dragon Pulse on Fennekin!" "Floette! Use Moonblast on Pinsir!" Flygon fired Dragon Pulse at Fennekin, as Floette did Moonblast on Pinsir. "Pinsir, Revenge on Flygon!" "Fennekin, Flamethrower on Flygon as well!" Pinsir dodged the Moonbalst and took the Dragon Pulse for Fennekin then Pinsir smashed right into Flygon and then Fennekin's Flamethrower made contact as well. Not Pinsir protects Fennekin from Dragon Pulse but delivers serious damage to Flygon and the Flamethrower just more insult to injury! "Don't expect ganging on me will work, Flygon, Iron Tail!" "Get in there with Vine Whip!" Holy mackerl! Now Flygon and Floette have gang on Pinsir! "Counter with X-Scissor!" Pinsir met up with Iron Tail and Vine Whip with X-Scissor and both were blocked. "Serena now's your chance!" "Right, Fennekin, Hidden Power on Flygon!" Fennekin fire glowy orbs at Flygon which did the damage. "Now Flamethrower!" "Intercept with Giga Impact!" Flygon's Giga Impact overpower the Flamethrower and smashed Fennekin! "Flamethrower again!" "Stop it with Iron Tail!' Flygon avoided the Flamethrower and send Fennekin in the air, then came down hard. "Pinsir, Bind on Floette!" "Dodge it and use Vine Whip on Fennekin!" "And Flygon Hyper Beam!" Floette avoided the attack, then Flygon took the skies and fired Hyper Beam at Pinsir, And Floette grabbed Fennekin with Vine Whip and hurled right into Pinsir who then got the full force of the Hyper Beam. Both Flygon and Floette made their teamwork successful but did they defeat both Pinsir and Fennekin? The dust cleared to see both Fennekin and Pinsir fainted!" Pinsir and Fennekin cannot battle! Flygon and Floette are the winners! And the team of Twilight and Flurry Heart wins and moves on to our championship battle! "Alright!" Flurry Heart cheered. "Great battle, Flygon! I'm proud of you!" Twilight hugged Flygon. ... With Twilight and Flurry Herat moving on to the final round, one more will join them! It's the team of Rainbow and Lighting taking the team of Jaden and Star Lily! "Torchic, I want you to keep a sharp eye on what's going on?" Rainbow asked then Torchic got off her shoulder and watched. "I may be friends with her, but I didn't this far to lose!" Jaden thought. In the peanut gallery... "It comes down to this, either Twilight will face Jaden or Rainbow," Applejack exclaimed. "The tension must be high," Fluttershy admitted. On the battlefield. "Now, Swellow, let go!" "Garbodor, Standby for battle!" "Now, Magamr, out!" "Swoobat, let's fly!' "Quite the assortment of Pokémon," Masquerade smirked. Let the battle begin! Semifinal 2 Jaden and Star Lilly vs Rainbow and Lighitng "I ain't taking it easy on Jaden! Now Swelloe Aerial Ace on Magmar!" Swellow drew back before charging straight towards Magmar. "Mach Punch, quick!" Magmar prepared to strike with Mach Punch. "Now Swoobat, use Air Slash!" Swoobat shot a sharp orb of air, sending to Garbodor. "Hyper Beam!" Garbodor blasted Hyper Beam, destroying the Air Slash and almost Swellow before hitting Swoobat. "Talk about power!" "If that Aerial Ace would make contact it would be a knockout by a single blow!" Masquerade said. Swoobat is unable to battle! "You didn't have to hit Swellow, you know!" "Your Swellow is too slow just like you!" "I'm so sorry, Jaden!' "Don't worry, Magmar! Fire Punch on Garbodor!" Magmar ran toward Garbodor and delivered a massive Fire Punch as Garbodor couldn't dodge it. "Why didn't Garbodor dodge it?" Bonnie asked. "Just like Giga Impact, the user has to recover," Sunset explained to her "Stay out of this, Dash! Garbodor, use Sludge Bomb!" Garbodor fired Sludge Bomb at Magmar, then Magmar fell down. Magmar cannot battle! The winners are Garbodor and Swellow! And in this second battle neither Magmar nor Swoobat could do anything with Garbodor's fearsome power! "Swell!" Swellow sighed in disappointment. "Don't worry, buddy, you did your best and that's all I asked for," Rainbow said. And then they were two, join us this late afternoon for the conclusion of Slackstack Tag Team Tournament. Championship Battle Twilight Sparkle and Flurry Heart vs Rainbow Dash vs Lighting Dust In the stands, Jaden, Serena, and Masquerade joined the others. "Sorry, if you or Serena couldn't make it to the final," Fluttershy said. "It's okay, I was able to get used to Pokémon battling," Serena said. "What about you?" "I made a good run, but Lighting's Pokémon was on another level," Jaden said. On the battlefield... All right from 16 tag battle pairs to only two and one of them will win the magnificent Soothe Bell! "There is only one Pokémon I want to get the job done!" Rainbow threw Torchic's Pokéball sending Torchic. "Huh? Torchic!?" Pinkie was surprised. "I had a feeling Rainbow might do that," Clemont replied. "Heracross, prepare for battle!" Lighting called Heracross to the field, as Heracross was ready for battle making Torchic grow worried. "Don't worry, you're working with me!" "If that's how want to play it. Espeon let's go!" "You too, Meganium!" Both Espeon and Meganium were out and were ready for battle. "I can easily say the advantage goes to Rainbow and Lighting," Masquerade said. Let the battle begin! Championship Battle Twlight Sparkle and Flurry Heart vs Rainbow Dash and Lighitng Dust "We'll take the first move, Torchic, Fire Spin on Meganium!" "Hereacross, Megahorn on Espeon!" Torchic unleashed her Fire Spin and Hereacross charged with Megahorn. "I thought they might do that, Meganium, Light Screen!" The Light Screen blocked Fire Spin, and Espeon dodged the Hereacross pursuit. "Brick Break!" Hereacross moves forward and prepares to strike at Meganium. "Counter with Tackle!" Meganium went forward with Tackle before slamming Brick Break. It's an even match between Tackle and Brick Break... but what this!? The tackle smashed Hereacross into the ground! Amazing! That Tackle took down Hereacross to the ground! "Hereacross, get up!" "Now, Solar Beam!" "Solar Beam, doesn't it take a while to charge?" Bonnie asked. "True, not if the weather is sunny which it is," Jaden replied. "Quick, before Meganium has the chance to fire, Flame Charge!" "I don't think so, Espeon, Swift!" Espeon used Swift to send Torchic's Flame Charge off course. "Go for it!" "Right, Fire!" Meganium fired the Solar Beam and both were hit by it and both panting die in the long wind of the battle. "Lighting! If don't work together we're going to lose!" "So what if we do?" "I don't know about you but I'm winning this thing!' "Don't be so confident, Rainbow, Espeon, Psybeam! "Meganium, Razor Leaf!" Both attacks hit Hereacross and Torchic, forcing them to skid back a little. "Alright, enough playing around, it's time to finish this!" Lighting exclaimed as she put on her necklace with Key Stone in it. "A Key Stone!?" "Hereacross, show them your power Mega Evolve!" A bright glow happened and suddenly Hereacross became its Mega-Evolved form. By the stars of Gaia, in a desperate move, Lighting pulls out the big guns, Mega Evolution! Now, this should be interesting! "Now, Megahorn!" "Brace for impact, and use Psybeam on Heracross!' "Use Razor Leaf on Hereacross as well!" "Stop them with Fire Spin!" Torchic shot Fire Spin which stops both Psybeam and Razor Leaf creating an explosion than from the smoke Mega-Hereacross came out and strike both of them with Megahorn and both were sent right into the barricade unconscious. Espeon and Meganium are unable to battle! The winners are Hereacross and Torchic! And there you have it, folks! The winner of the Slackstack Tag Team Tournament is Rainbow and Lighting! "We did!" Rainbow exclaimed as she gave Torchic a big hug. "See, Torchic? You're the best!" "Nice job, Heracross, you did good," Lighting and Hereacross fistbump. ... Yes, there might've been scary moments, but I think this tournament has brought out something new and exciting in you both! So now, please accept the Soothe Bell. The announcer handed them a sliver Soothe Bell. "Thank you very much!" And lets a big hand to all other Pokémon, who battled so hard during the competition. Much later, Rainbow called all of her Pokémon out. "Jolteon, Swellow, Crobat, Ninjask, and Torchic there's no better team I'd be with than all of you," Rainbow said. The Pokémon replied happily, then Lighting walked over to her then tossed her Soothe Bell at Rainbow which she caught it. "What was that for!?" "You have it, I don't need it," Lighting said then walked away. "Don't mind her. We're a team now!" And so, with the tournament over, Rainbow gets a new Pokémon of Torchic from Lighting and the meeting of Flurry Heart And so, it's off to Shaluor City, as the journey continues!
Chapter 23-Heroes! Friends and Faux Alike!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 23-Heroes! Friends and Faux Alike!Contining their journey to Shalour City and Ash's third Gym Battle Challenge. Our heroes seem to wander into too familiar a situation. "Pika PI!" "Catching Pikachu was meant to be!" Adagio said "Inkay, help agree!" James called his Pokémon. "You're never getting away with this! Out Ninjask!" Rainbow declared. "Ninjask!" "Use Shadow Ball!" Ninjask fired Shadow Ball at Inkay. "Dodge it!" Inkay dodged the Shadow Ball with ease as such Clemont pulled out an invention. "Uh, Clemont. what's that?" Ash asked. "Just wait and see," Clemont explained. "Mangemite, Flash Canon!" Clyde said as Mangemite fired Flash Cannon at Clemont only to absorb by his device. "What the heck?!" "I call it my Mechanical Absorber of and Pokémon's move." "The name needs work," Bonnie sighed. "Okay, use Tackle," James suggested. Inkay tried to tackle it only to be spun around. "It also works for physical attacks as well." "Good idea, dude, now Ninjask used Fury Cutter!" Ninjask struck Inkay hard with Fury Cutter. "Slugma, Flamethrower!" Slugma fired Flamethrower only for it to be absorbed. "It's working well!" "Rock Slide!" Even Slumga's Rock Slide didn't work as Clemont's device absorb it as well. "Come on!" "Gardevoir, Psychic!" Gardevoir's Psychic ended Slugma right into Sonata who was holding Pikachu making her drop the trap and freeing Pikachu. "Oh, no!" "Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" Pikachu's Thunderbolt sends them flying. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" Team Rocket disappeared out of sight! "Clemont, you did it," Bonnie cheered. "Your invention is great!" Serena added. "You're welcome, although it's still in the prototype stage I have a good... Huh," Then Clemont's invention blew up in his face. "Back to the drawing board, brother," Bonnie consoled him as Clemont blew cough some smoke. Meanwhile with Team Rocket... "We're so close to catching Pikachu," Jessie groaned. "So close times zero still equals zero," Meowth added. "It's not fair, how to compete with absurd Twerp invention?" James asked. "Why compete when we can steal it?" Duke asked. "Good point, utilizing that move-absorbing device would be nice." "But first we need a plan and I've got one!" Jessie whispered her plan to James, then to Meowth and the others. "Now that's what I called a plan!" Sonata giggled. "So, how do we execute?" "You just have faith in my acting expertise, and rest will be a breeze!" Jessie grinned. ,,, Meanwhile, at the nearby Pokémon Center, a female trainer was waiting on her Pokémon. She heard a chime and Nurse Joy and Nurse Redheart steps out with a tray of Poké Balls, three standards, one great, and one ultra. With her, an Emboar stepped off the cart that Wigglytuff rolled in. "Emboar and the rest of your Pokémon are in top condition, Hilda," Nurse Joy told her. "Thank you..." Just as Hilda was about to say thanks when a young boy ran in with Pancham in his arms. "Nurse Joy! Nurse Redheart! My Pancham is badly hurt!" "Don't worry, you Pancham will be alright," Nurse Redheart reassures him as she takes the Pokémon into the medical wing. "What happened?" Hilda asked the boy. "A stupid trainer and his floating, psybeam-using Pikachu," The boy replied. "Wait. Did you say a Pikachu that could float and use Psybeam?" "Yeah! This trainer calling himself Ash challenged me to a battle. When I refused, his floating Pikachu use Psybeam on my Pancham." "Interesting. I'll keep an eye out for him then. Hope that Pancham gets better," Hilda tells him as she grabs her Poké Balls and headed out of the Pokémon Center, and made their way to the edge of town. "What do you think, Emboar?"Hilda asked her Fire-Type Pokémon who walking beside him. A floating Pikachu that can use Psybeam, is not likely. But from the way he spoke, he thought he was telling the truth. Then Emboar stooped and turned around and grabbed his trainer's attention. Scratch that, he was telling the truth. Both Hilda and Emboar saw three guys running away from a restaurant that clearly did not pay the manager asked who they were and then announce their names. "Okay, that is a thing we saw," Hilda wondered. "Emboar!" "We better stopped them before things get worse," Hilda said she and Emboar pursued them but lost them quickly. "They're a slippery bunch, I'll give them that. Let's head back to the Pokémon Center and see if that boy is still there." The two turned around and head back to the Pokémon Center. As she entered he noticed that boy was gone, but she did see the people who ran out of the shop. And have picked some friends. Before she could do anything an announcement goes out from Ash, Serena, and Bonnie needed to report to the front of the Pokémon Center. When they turn around, Hilda is slightly surprised to see that the ones in question looked different. and their new friends were Clemont, the Lumisoe City Gym Leader. "What in the name of Arceus is going?" Hilda asked herself then followed the group outside to see Officer Jenny with three grumpy-looking managers. "Ah there, you are," one of them says. "It's time for you guys to pay your bill already." ' "Hang on a moment," Hilda said stepping between Officer Jenny and the accused group, "I don't think these people are the ones you're looking for. I've been trying to find them as well and the ones here don't match with what we've seen." One of the managers seems skeptical of what Hilda said and gets a better look. "Actually, now that I think about it, you're all dressed the same, but don't seem to be the same." Okay, let's head down to the station and see if we can clear this up," Officer Jenny tells them and everyone but Clemont follows to the station. With Team Rocket... "So part one of Jessie's plan is s huge success, separated the inventor Twerp from the rest of them, not to mention we got huge scores of food," Aria said. "That's our Jess, the most devious mind on the planet," James grinned. "Now, it's time for phase two," Adagio came in. "Yeah!" Duke and Sonata cheered. In the police station... "I was told by someone that the fakes arrived and forced people to battle and that their Pikachu was floating," Hilda explained. "And not to mention, eating and drinking and running off without paying, and when they run away they announce your names," Officer Jenny explained. "So I asked you to come here if you knew what's been going on." She showed them a photo of the fakes eating. "This photo is from the restaurant's surveillance camera." "They sure look like us," Serena said. "But why?" Fluttershy asked. "We have no idea, but we're currently investigating. So I'm asking you to please be extra careful during your stay here." "Thanks," All of them said then headed outside and back to Pokémon Center. "Hey, thanks for helping us back there," Ash said to her. "No problem, my name's Hilda and this is my partner Emboar. A pleasure to meet to all of you," Hilda said while shaking his hand. "So, Hilda, if not a problem do you want to join us for dinner?' Sunset asked. "Sure, I'm in." Much later... "Where could Clemont have gone off to?" Jaden asked. "I'm back!" Clemont said as he walked to them. "Clemont, where have you been?" Bonnie asked. "Some scientists asked me help to help out with some of the machines they were having trouble with," Clemont explained. "So what did Officer Jenny want?" "Apparently there are some jerks going around to be your friends attacking trainers and eating a bunch of food not paying for it," Hilda explained. "Hilda! Is that you?" "Yeah, surprised to see you out here Clemont." "Wait, you know her?" Applejack asked. "Yeah. Hilda came to challenge the Lumiose Gym and defeated me," Clemont explained. "You're not exactly a walk in the park I got lucky that Emboar was able to Stone Edge," Hilda explained. "So, Hilda, inserted in helping us to find the fakes?" Zane asked. "Yeah, I'm game," Hilda agreed. With Team Rocket... "How it's looking, James?" Sonata asked. "Everything's safely buried," James replied. "Then tomorrow's going to be a lot of fun," Sonata and James high-fived each other. As morning came, the gang found a fast-food stand whose owner told them that had seen the imposters heading for the hills outside of town. They quickly make their way up to them were Pinkie sees the imposter. "They they are!" Pinkie spotted them. "So you're the ones," Ash exclaimed. "Who are you?" Bonnie asked. "Your clothes are awful, not like mine at all," Serena pointed it out. "Ta-da!" The fake Serena said. "Ugh, I never say tada." "It wasn't easy for me to dress down with no class like you." "You fiend," Rarity scowled at the fake one. "And I truly detested acting like a total buffoon," The false Ash admitted. "I'm only asking you once, who are you?" Hilda demanded. The imposters respond by throwing off their disguises to be someone that Ash and the others knew all too well as more as five more people showed up. "Prepare for trouble, without our disguises." "And make it double, with no surprises!" "To protect the world from devastation." "To unite all people within our nation." "To denounce the evils of truth and love." "To extend our reach to the stars above," "Jessie." "James." "Adagio." "Aria." "Sonata." "Duke." "And Clyde." "Team Rocket rips you off at the speed of light!" "Surrender now or prepare for a fraudulent fight!" "Meowth that's right!" "Wobbuffet," "Murkow!" "Houndour!" "Team Rocket!" Ash and Twilight exclaimed. "Why were you pretending to be us?" Serena asks. "I'm confused. What's a Team Rocket?" Hilda asks. "What's a Team Rocket?! You dare to insult us like that!" Aria snapped. "Team Rocket is a group of jerks, who are always trying to steal other's people Pokémon," Applejack explained. "And today, we plan on adding a Pikachu to the collection," Duke said. "Team Rocket's future is now thanks to science!" "Team Rocketronic gear on!" Clyde pressed a button on his robot arm as Heliolisk Robot came out of the ground. "I worked on that robot!" Clemont surprised. "And you can't unring a bell. And did your work so well," Jessie added. "What have I done?" "Thank you for brilliant help without your naive assistance we'd be lost." "So, you two were the scientist that Clemont helped out yesterday, weren't you?" Hilda asked. "Wow, this new twerp actually has some brains," Meowth exclaimed. "So your plan was to impersonate Ash, Serena, and Bonnie knowing they'd be investigated. While that happened your friends convince Clemont to help you on a false pretense. That's all kinds of low." "That's how we work. Now Megatron, capture Pikachu," Jeesiie gave the robot a command. "Pikachu, Thunderbolt!" As Pikachu fires, Megatron's fins come out and absorb the Thunderbolt. "Use, Electro Ball!" Megatron absorbs the Electro Ball and then fires the electricity absorbed right back at Pikachu. Hilda threw out a Poké Ball right in front of the electricity as the PokéBall opened. When the smoke clears everyone but Hilda and Emboar were surprised to see Ferrothorn standing in front of Pikachu. "You're not taking Pikachu. Ferrothorn, Flash Cannon!" Ferrothorn fired Flash Cannon at the robot, destroying it with one shot." "That was impressive," Pinkie exclaimed then out nowhere a sphere closed around Pikachu, trapping it. "And I spoke way too soon." Team Rocket runs to another device that popped out of the ground. Duke puts the ball in and presses a button sending Pikachu to who knows where. "Pikachu!" "You won't away with this. Gardevoir, Hyper Beam!" Zane called his Gardevoir and her attack send Team Rocket flying. "That could go well," Sonata groaned. "Who cares, our plan worked and we have Pikachu," Duke retorted. "LIFE IS GOOD!" As Team Rocket blasted off, the group quickly runs toward the device that Pikachu was put into. "Clemont put me in a capsule and send me after Pikachu," Ash tells him. "The capsule was signed for Pokémon only. And besides, there's only one.' "Alright, then,' Ash said as he tries to climb down the tube but Applejack and Sunset pull him back. "Clemont is there anything you remember about where Team Rocket would send the capsule?" Twilight asked. "Yes. They wanted to send the capsule about one and a half miles away from here," Clemont told her. "Maybe we can the direction to see where they go," Rainbow suggested then called out Torchic. "Torchic!" "Torchic can you dig a tunnel and find out which direction the transport machine was heading in?" Torchic went underground then popped right back up and pointed in the direction. "Awesome, lead the way!" Everyone followed The Chic Pokémon. ... "Well, well, it looks like we finally caught you this time!" Jessie grinned. "Pikachu!" Team Rocket heard Ash's voice and was stunned to see them all here. "That's far you as you go," Hilda shouted. "How dare you fool me like that? Give back Pikachu, right now!" Clemont demanded. "Skunktank." "Yamask." "Inkay." "Pumpkaboo.' "Go!" Adagio, James, Jessie, and Sonata called their Pokémon. "The future is now thanks to science. Clemontic gear on. Mechanical Absorber of any Pokémon's move, model two!" "Go get'em big brother!" Bonnie cheered. "What kind of name is that?" Hilda asked. "You get used to it," Jaden said. "Inkay, Psybeam!" "Yamask, Shadow Ball!" Inkay fired Psybeam, while Yamask fired Shadow Ball but the moves were absorbed. "Pumpkboo, Dark Pulse!" "Skunktank, Flamethrower!" Skunktank and Pumpkaboo fired their attacks but theirs were absorbed too. "Torchic, Fire Spin!" "Espeon, Psybeam!" "Totodile, Ice Fang!" "Lunatone, Power Gem!" Torchic, Espeon, Totodile, and Lunatone hit Inkay and the other Pokémon with their respective moves knocking the four of them out. "Now Emboar, Rock Smash!" Emboar hits the capsule that Pikachu was trapped in freeing it. "Pikachu, are you okay?" "Pika Pika!" "Great, use Electro Ball!" "Oh, phooey!" Duke exclaimed as they tried to escape in their balloon which explodes and sends Team Rocket flying. "The future is not now, thanks to Twerps!" Aria groaned. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" Team Rocket disappeared out of sight! "Woobuffet!" "Murkrow!" "Alright! Thanks a lot, Clemont, Hilda, you saved the day." "No, in fact. it's all my fault for building that robot." "Team Rocket knew exactly what to say to get inside your head. It's not your fault," Sunset pointed out then Clemont's device exploded covering him in soot. "Whoopsy doops. Are you okay Clemont?" Bonnie asks only for her big brother to cough in response. "So where are you all headed?" Hilda asked. "We're on our way to Shalour City so I can challenge the gym leader," Ash responded. "Well, I'm on my way to Geosenege Town which is on the path. Mind if I join you?" "Why not, more the merrier," Pinkie bear hugs her. Although, Clemont was tricked into helping Team Rocket with the robots they tried to use to catch Pikachu. Everything worked out in the end with the help of all our heroes! As well as a new travel companion in Hilda! Now, it's on to Shalour City once again as the journey continues!

Chapter 24-The Secret of Mega Evolution!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 24-The Secret of Mega Evolution!The group was walking through the forest on the way to Shalour City enjoying the nice weather. "It is such beautiful weather we're having. It feels so nice out," Rarity commented. "The best thing to do on a day like this is run," Ash says. "Well if that's the case... race ya!" Rainbow shouted as she runs ahead of Ash who immediately pursues with the rest trying to catch up. As Rainbow and Ash run. a girl on roller skates jumps over them. "I found a trainer!" She shouts as she hops over them. "Who are you?" Rainbow asked as the group caught up. "Can we help you with something?" "Number 99, and that's going to be you." The girl said pointing to Ash. "99? What are you talking about?" Ash asked then a Lucario jumped over the group and landed near the girl. "A Pokémon battle what else?" Then Sunset recognizes her. "Well look what the Lucario dragged in," Sunset said to her. "Nive to see you again, Korria." "Sunset! It's good to see you again." Both Korrina and Sunset high-fived each other. "Wait you two know each other?" Applejack asks. "Yeah, we do. Sunset challenged my grandfather the former Shaulour gym leader." "Everyone, this Korrina. She's the current Shalour City gym leader," Sunset introduces then they introduce themselves. "Hang on, so your the Shaulour Gym Leader!?" Ash asked. "You got it. So how about our battle?" Korrina asks. "You're on!" The group heads to an open field to battle. "Are both trainers ready?" Twilight was the acting referee as Ash and Korrina and their Pokémon were standing on opposite sides and they all nodded. "Then let the battle begin!" Ash vs Korrina 1 vs 1 Normal Battle "Alright, Pikachu, Quick Attack!" "Lucario, stop them!" Lucario runs right into Pikachu's Quick Attack, stooping it cold before sending Pikachu into the air. "Iron Tail, let's go!" Pikachu goes in for the attack, but Lucario blocked it again. "It deflected it," Pinkie exclaimed. "I get the feeling that Lucario is capable of much more," Hilda said. "Well, Ash is going to have a tough time beating it, given its strength," Sunset pointed. "Come on, you guys, you can do it!" Serena, Rarity, and Bonnie cheered. Pikachu used Iron Tail again but Lucario dodged it then used Swords Dance. "Bone Rush!" Lucario created a large bone and then strike Pikachu repeatedly with force. "Clever, using Swords Dance to increase Lucario's Attack power and Ground-Type moves are effective against Pikachu being Electric Type it had so some serious damage," Zane deduced. Lucario sends Pikachu into the air with another Bone Rush then proceeds to do Power-Up Punch. Pikachu lands completely on the ground dazed. "What power," Fluttershy was amazed. The rest of the group runs toward Pikachu and Korrina gives him a Sitrus Berry. Korrina and Ash's stomachs growl, leading Clemont to prepare lunch. "Man, Serena, your PokéPuffs must be good if Emboar eating them. He's usually a pretty picky eater," Hilida said to her as the gang eat. "Thanks." "So, Korrina, I take it this was a gift from your grandfather?" Sunset asked pointing to the keystone on Korrina's glove. "So does that mean Lucario can Mega Evolve?" Zane asked. "Not yet, Lucario doesn't have a Mega Stone yet, though I have seen a lot of Mega Evolved Pokémon. As the gang talked to each other, none of them knew there were being watched by Team Rocket. "So that Lucario can Mega Evolve, not to mention beating the Thunderbolt out Pikachu," Jessie exclaimed. "Now's that offer we can't refuse," Duke said. "Not only that we'll nab the keystone and Pikachu as well," Adagio added. "And once the boss hears about this, he'll flip his lid," Sonata giggled. "Then let's set the stealing stage," Clyde said. "Wobbuffet!" Once the group finished their lunch and packed a truck shows up and someone with a microphone asks Korria if Lucario was her partner. The truck's trailer then opens up to reveal three people known as the Mega Evolution Consulting Group. "I'm sorry, what?" Rainbow asks. "Our job is to give a consultation concerning how strong your Pokémon is." "We're also aware that Lucario is looking to Mega Evolve using the stone in Geosenge Town." The three of them took Lucario on stage and then took Korria's keystone as well Pikachu. "Wait a sec, how do you know about the Lucarionite in Geosenge Town?" "It's our job to know that stuff." "Ok, but Pikachu can't Mega Evolve. It only works on Pokémon that are fully evolved. You should know that!" Then a hard light cage captures Pikachu and Lucario and the keystone and the truck close up. A Meowth shaped Balloon then springs from the top and group saw Team Rocket, who did their motto. "Come back here!" Ash shouted. "Zero chance dork!" Aria said to him then threw a smoke bomb. When the smoke clears, they were gone. "We've got to get them back," Zane said. "Right, Swellow, come on out!" Rainbow called her Pokémon out. "Swellow look for Team Rocket's balloon!" Swellow nodded and took off at high speed while searching for Team Rocket. Upon seeing it, he is surprised to see the balloon rocking in mid-air. Swellow flies a little closer to see Pikachu and Lucario attacking the energy cage with an Electro Ball and Power-up Punch that made it disappear and Swellow quickly caught both of them. "Need some help?" Swellow asked. "Thanks, we sure could some," Pikachu replied. Once Pikachu and Lucario were on the ground they made their back to their friends when there stopped by Team Rocket. "You're not getting off that easy," Duke said all of them called out their Pokémon. Then shortly Ash and the others arrived. "You okay, buddy?" Rainbow asked Swellow. "Swellow!" "Enogugh of this, I say we settle this with a battle, any may the worst twerp lose," Meowth says. "Want to go old school, Treecko come on out!" Applejack called out Treecko then started to glow. "Great horned toloody what's going on?" "It's evoling, it's truly breath taking," Fluttershy said as Treecko evole into Grovyle. "Grovyle," It said as Applejack scanned it. Grovyle, The Wood Gecko Pokémon. The leaves growing out of Grovyle’s body are convenient for camouflaging it from enemies in the forest. This Pokémon is a master at climbing trees in jungles. "Dosen't matter, Excadrill, Drill Run!" Excadrill used Drill Run and heaed to Grovyle only for it to knock it a sharp leaf like a sword. "Awesome, you learn how to used Leaf Blade." "Use Shadow Ball!" "Use Psybeam!" "Sonic Boom!" Pumpkaboo used Shadow Ball, Inkay used Psybeam and Maganmite did Sonic Boom and headed toward Grovyle who quickly dodges it. "You won't walk from this! Feel my Fury Swipes!" Meowth shouted. "Quilava, Rollout on Meowth!" Sunset called our Quilava. Quilava used Rollout and Meowth was hulred right into Team Rocket. "Pikachu, Thunderbolt!" Pikachu used Thunderbolt and send Team Rocket flying. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" "Woobuffet!" "Murkrow!" "With that taken care of, shall we go to Geosenge Town?" Twilight asked. "I don't see why not," Korria replied. With that being said the group heads toward Geosenge Town.

Chapter 25-The Cave of Trials!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 25-The Cave of Trials!On their way to Shalour City for our next Gym challenge, our heroes met Gym Leader Korrina and her partner, Lucario. She agreed to let us accompany her to Geosenge Town. In the hopes of finding the Lucarionite Korrina came here so her Lucario can Mega Evolve. “What a cute little town,” Serena commented. Ash turned around to the Gym Leader. “So the Lucarionite is somewhere in this area. Right, Korr-!” He stopped himself as he saw Korrina, her head hung low. “Korrina? You okay?” She was. "YEAH!!!" Korrina cried and jumped so high, it almost looked like she jumped over us. She then clasped Lucario's paws and jumped like a little schoolgirl, while her partner laughed in amusement. "We finally made it to Geosenge Town, Lucario! You won a hundred battles in a row. Now it's time for you to Mega Evolve! Let's go!" Korrina and Lucario sprinted ahead of us, and we trailed behind. We entered the town and browsed the streets. Many markets displayed stones of different shapes and colors. Most of them were Evolution Stones that allowed certain Pokémon to evolve. "Korrina, I know you’re here for Lucarionite," Twilight said, “do you even know where to find it?” "Not a clue," Korrina said. "How do you plan to find it if you don't even know where to look?" Twilight gave her a dumbfounded look. "Assumed?" Clemont groaned. "That sounds like someone I know," Twilight had a strange knowledge about finding stuff without having any background. Rarity's attention was grabbed by a window display full of Evolution Stones. "Look at all these beautiful stones!" “I’ve heard Geosenge Town is founded near a mine,” Zane stated, “So it wouldn’t surprise me if they sold these at the gift shops.” "No way!" Jaden exclaimed seeing a Razor Claw. "It's a Razor Claw!" "What's a Razor Claw?" Fluttershy asked. "It allows Sneasel into Weaville, during the nighttime." ... Korrina turned to Ash. "What about Pikachu? There are plenty of Thunder Stones around here, so you can evolve Pikachu into Raichu." "We could,” he replied, “but Pikachu doesn't want to evolve. He wants to stay as he is and keep getting more powerful at the same time." “But wouldn’t Pikachu be even stronger if he evolved into a Raichu?” Pinkie asked. “You’re right. Evolving your Pokémon is one way to make it stronger, but it’s not the only way. Evolution isn’t everything. That’s the main reason he wants to stay this way. Right, buddy?” “Pika pika!” Pikachu replied. "Okay, fair enough," Korrina said, "Now then, time to find that Lucarionite! If we ask around the shops, we're bound to find it!" Every shopkeeper we came across didn't have a clue as to where the Lucarionite could be. In fact, most of them said they didn't even know what Lucarionite was. After about an hour, we all met at the town's signature landmark: a large, seemingly bottomless sinkhole surrounded by transparent barriers. Rainbow Dahs tossed a few pebbles small rocks into the hole and held a hand to her ear, but she never heard the impact. “Just how deep is this thing?” “I heard it goes down for miles,” Clemont replied. Korrina groaned. "The Lucarionite's got to be here somewhere! Grandfather said it was here!" "Well, I suppose if Lucarionite was that easy to find, we would’ve heard of the evolution of lots of Lucario. It must be a very rare and valuable stone, after all." "How should we look for it, then?" Applejack said. Korrina perked up. "Now I remember! Grandfather told me that finding the stone is part of my training. We can't get discouraged now! I have to find on our own to finally make mega evolution possible!" "You're right. It's too early to give up!" Ash said. "Pika!" "Hello, over there!" shouted a voice from behind. We turned and saw a bearded man approach us, a camera propped against his shoulder. "Name’s McGinty. I own the local photo studio. How about a souvenir photo as a memento of yer journey?" "That's a great idea,” Serena added. “It’ll be a great little token of our friendship!" "Let’s go for it." Ash paid McGinty the cost for the photos, one for each trainer there. Then we all gathered around one another, the mountains and the ruins behind us. McGinty set up his camera and focused the lens. “Alrighty, now, big smiles everyone,” McGinty instructed, “this is a happy moment fer yeh...” *Click* McGinty then handed the memory card to his assistant and sent him to print out the photo. “We’ll have this printed out fer yeh in a jiffy.” "McGinty?” Hilda began, “do you by any chance know where we could find a Mega Stone?" “A Mega Stone, eh?” McGinty thought for a moment and he pointed at the mountain range. "Can’t say it’s a Mega Stone, but I've heard that a very rare stone can be found up in a cave that's hidden inside that mountain." "Now we’re getting somewhere," Jaden said. "If you go even farther into the mountain than the cave I already told you about, you'll find a small entrance to another cave. That's where it is. But if yer goin’ up there, be warned: it's said that terrible things can happen to people who are not worthy enough to enter.’" "T-T-Terrible things?" Serena shuddered. "I can't tell you for sure, but there's some evidence that bad things really do happen there, and that's why the people from this town never, ever venture into that cave!" "Well, you’re not scaring me!" I added confidently. "I know this is it. Lucarionite's in there, and I'm gonna find it! Let's go, buddy!" Korrina started to Lucario, who growled in the affirmative. "Wait!" McGinty cried when we tried to run. "Your photos aren’t ready yet." "Oh… Yeah… Right." After McGinty handed each of them a copy of the photo, they headed up the mountain path. They jogged up the winding trail, we passed by two large boulders propped together. Lucario stop and studied the boulders. "Something's wrong?" Sunset asked. As she was asking, Lucario delivered a Power-Up Punch to the boulders, which flew back to reveal a hidden passageway. "Well, I’ll be a Mankey’s nephew," Ash said. "Maybe this leads to the secret cave entrance McGinty was talking about." "But he never said it would be blocked," Serena replied. "Maybe someone blocked the path?" Jaden shrugged it off, and we headed down the path. At the end of the path was the cave entrance. "It's in here! The Lucarionite is just within our grasp!" Korrina took a step towards the cave but stopped. "But... it's pitch black in there!" "I'll take care of this. Activating Heliolisk Spotlight!" Clemont pressed a button on his harness strap. An attachment from his backpack poked out and pointed into the cave, then a bright light shone into the cave. Suddenly, a collection of screams echoed from inside the cave. Serena yelped and clung to Ash. "Is it ghosts? Monsters?! Have they come out here for us?!" she cried. There was a sudden gust of wind, and a series of objects shot out of the cave and into the horizon. “WE’RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN...!” they heard. "Wobbuffet," "Murkow!" "Houndour!" “Was that Team Rocket?” Zane commented. “They must’ve tried to beat us here and take the Lucarionite for themselves,” Bonnie stated. “They’re so sneaky!” "Didn't we send them over the horizon last time?" Pinkie wondered. "How did they beat us here?" "Who knows? Right now, we’ve got a Mega Stone to unearth.” Ash stated with the rest of us nodded, and we entered the path with Clemont lighting the way. "Stay close. It might be dangerous." Serena and Bonnie whimpered, and they hurried over to us. Serena held onto Ash's shirt, while Bonnie maintained a vice grip on Applejack's Grovyle. "You'll protect me, won't you, right?" Bonnie asked. "Grovyle." At the end of the cave were old, wooden, double doors, and a blue light leaked from them. Most likely Team Rocket left it open before they were ejected. We peeked into the room. Inside was a seemingly glowing blue lake. A narrow pathway led to a tall staircase at the end. Six pillars, three on each side, lined the pathway, and they all had the Mega Evolution symbol on top. At the top of the staircase was a bronze pedestal, which held a glowing, orange stone. Korrina and Lucario gasped as they saw the stone on the pedestal. "Lucarionite!" “It looks beautiful!” Serena cooed. “It’s all yours, Korrina,” Sunset gestured. Korrina and Lucario nodded and ran down the pathway toward the Mega Stone. But then, out of nowhere, a Blaziken attacked. Lucario brought his arms up, blocked its talons, and launched it back. Blaziken jumped back and landed in front of the Lucarionite. "Are you okay, Lucario?" Korrina asked. “Who’s that Pokémon?” Serena held up her Pokédex. Blaziken. The Blaze Pokémon and the final evolved form of Torchic. Blaziken leaves its opponents charred with its fiery punches. "That Blaziken must be guarding the Lucarionite," Twilight said. "It must also be what drove Team Rocket out of here." "I see." Korrina smiled at Blaziken. "If we defeat you, we'll get the Lucarionite." Blaziken nodded in reply. Korrina took off her backpack and tossed it to Ash. "I want you guys to stay back. This is our battle." "No worries. We'll be right here." Korrina took off the tank top she wore over her red and white dress and tossed it aside. She strapped on her helmet and smiled. "Lucario, Power-Up Punch!" Lucario got a running start and leaped into the air. He brought his fist back, and it glowed with an orange aura. He dove fist-first towards Blaziken, who jumped out of the way. Blaziken used Blaze Kick and smashed Lucario in the chest, sending him flying. Lucario went into a back handspring to regain his balance. "Blaziken is so strong..." Serena said. "Maybe too strong for Lucario." "It’s a Fire and Fighting type,” Sunset commented. “Between Blaziken’s type advantage and its incredible speed, things aren't looking so good for Lucario." Blaziken charged with double Blaze Kicks. "Lucario, dodge it!" Blaziken attacked quickly, leaving Lucario with barely enough time to react. "Use Metal Sound!" Lucario brought the spikes on the back of his paws together and emitted a harsh screech. Blaziken covered its ears. Korrina’s partner sprinted towards Blaziken with a double Power-Up Punch. With a roar, he thrust his fist at Blaziken. The opposing Pokémon did the same, and their fists met. Lucario threw the other punch, but Blaziken dodged it and engulfed Lucario in Flamethrower. He was launched into the ceiling and then crashed onto the ground. "Lucario!" Korrina skated towards Lucario. Blaziken used Flamethrower, and it crashed in front of Korrina. She lost her balance, and she fell to the ground. As she fell back, her souvenir photo slipped out of her pocket and shriveled up in the flames. It walked over and picked up Lucario by the head. It lifted him up and threw him against the wall. "Somebody, do something!" Bonnie shouted then Grovyle stopped her. "Grovyle's right,” Applejack replied. “Korrina said this is her fight. She can handle this. Isn't that right, Korrina?" she said, raising his voice so she could hear. Korrina stood up and glanced back at us with a smile. "No matter who we're up against in battle, we'll never turn and run the other way! Right, Lucario?" Lucario climbed to his feet and growled. "Lucario, Power-Up Punch!" With glowing fists, Lucario lunged at Blaziken, punching repeatedly at it. It dodged and deflected several, but the last one made a little bit of contact, causing Blaziken to stumble back. Lucario summoned double Bone Rushes and flourished them. He lunged at his opponent and dealt several hits to it. The Blaziken fell to the ground, and Lucario thrust the Bone Rushes into the ground, hovering in an X over Blaziken's neck. Then Lucario did the same thing to each of Blaziken’s limbs to keep it in place. "Lucario, let's finish this up!" "Enough," a voice boomed in the cave. Everyone stopped in their place and looked around. A man emerged from behind the Lucarionite. He was elderly with beady gray eyes and very long, eyebrows. He wore a gray sweatsuit with a red shirt underneath. "You have won,” he smiled. "Grandfather?!" Korrina said. "That's your grandfather?" Rainbow Dash said. "My name is Gurkinn. People call me the Mega Evolution Guru," He walked to Blaziken's side and returned it to its Poké Ball. "What on earth is going on here? Why did you do this?" Korrina said. "I knew that you would complete your training and make it here successfully, so I thought I'd give you this final trial myself,” Gurkinn said, resting a hand on Korrina's shoulder. “You overcame it beautifully, as I knew you would. You passed this final test with flying colors. Well done. Now, go and claim what you came here for." Korrina nodded and ran to the staircase. She climbed to the top and picked up the rock containing the Lucarionite. A little while later... "Thank you all for helping me to get the Lucarionite. I couldn't have done this without you," Korrina said. "I'm sorry, Mr. McGinty. You took such a nice photo, but mine got burnt up." "I see. Well, we'll just have to print you out another one, then." McGinty looked over our shoulder as Gurkinn joined us. "See? It looks like it went well. Your granddaughter really is something special, ain’t she?" "Of course, she is,” Gurkinn said. “She's my granddaughter, after all." "C'mon! I want to see Lucario Mega Evolve!" Bonnie said, jumping up and down. Everyone else cheered in agreement. Korrina nodded. She and Lucario walked to the center of the ruins, and Lucario was handed the Mega Stone. "Ready, buddy?" Korrina said, taking a deep breath, and her friend nodded. "Lucario, Mega Evolve!" To be continued...
Chapter 26- The Aura Storm!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 26- The Aura Storm!From where we left off, Our heroes have helped Korrina in requiring the Lurcarionite in Geosenge Town and now witnessing Lucario mega evolving... As they held their stones high, a bright light surged between them. It mostly engulfed Lucario and caused most people nearby to cover their eyes. After a short time, the light subsided, and the gang could see the result. Lucario’s darker blue body was covered in wavy black stripes connecting back and extending past the black mask on his face. The yellow fur had grown up around his neck with a large bushy tail taking place of the normal blue one. Each paw had an additional spike on the back and was tipped in red. His new shoulder pads had a spike of their own. And the braids on the back of his hair had grown longer, giving the illusion of a headband. The crowd reacted in awe, having witnessed Mega Evolution for the first time. Korrina now looked like she was about to cry. "AMAZING! Lucario, you're so cool!" she stammered excitedly. "So that's a Mega Lucario," Ash muttered. "Pikachu Pi!" Lucario looked at his paw. A light glow seemed to emulate his fingers. He punched the air a few times, and all of them felt a wave of aura pass over us. "Wow! it looks so strong!" Bonnie replied. “Congratulations on your Mega Evolution," Serena added. “All that hard work has finally paid off for you two," Clemont adjusted his glasses. "Thank you, everyone!" Korrina replied. "Mega Lucario is incredible," Rainbow grinned starry-eyed. "Those two are really something,” McGinty, grunted. “At any rate, the future of the Shalour Gym is secured, wouldn't ya say?" Gurkinn agreed. “I couldn’t be more proud of her.” "I wonder how strong Lucario can be once it Mega Evolved?" Fluttershy asked. "I've been waiting for someone to say that! The future is now thanks to Science! Clemotic Gear on!" Clemont pulled out a device that was shaped vaguely like his tracking device. "This little beauty will get your answer, using past data from the Pokémon in its normal form. You just scan the Pokémon you want to measure with this..." He aimed it at Lucario. "...then switch on, and you'll be able to measure its new strength, with 99.99% accuracy!" "I'm not sure I get it. But it sounds very useful, Clemont!" Serena smiled. Lucario sent out one last punch that made the needle on the console turn to the red part of the meter. Everyone gasped in awe at this as Korrina rushed up to him holding his paws. "I get it. You want to test your new power, right?" Korrina asked. Lucario barked in agreement she definitely understood. "I’d be willing to help you test it," Ash volunteered. "It'll be a preview of our Shalulor Gym Battle!" "Pika!" "In that, you're on!" Soon, everyone cleared the area for Pikachu and Lucario to battle. Pikachu felt surprisingly confident battling against a Mega evolved Pokémon. "We’re ready when you are, Korrina!" Ash stated from the opposite side of the opening. "Okay!" Korrina looked toward his ancestor. "Grandfather, will you be the referee for this battle?" Gurkinn nodded and approached. McGinty stroked his beard. "I wonder how this will play out…" “This will be a one-on-one battle; it will end when either Trainer’s Pokémon is unable to continue.” After confirming we were ready, Gurkinn raised a small flag. “Battle BEGIN!” Ash vs Korrina 1 vs 1 Normal Battle "Get ready for a taste of Mega Evolution. use Bone Rush!" "Pikachu, counter with Iron Tail!" Mega Lucario heads straight in with Bone Rush, only for Pikachu to knock one of the bones out of its paws and hits a cliff causing a small explosion. That’s some power…." Korrina muttered. Clemont looked at the dial to see that it had almost pushed itself into the red once again. "Amazing! Look at this! It's showing a power level almost double that of the reference data!" "Twice!?" Serena and Rairty yelped. "Whoa… Lucario powered up that much?" Bonnie cooed. "Power is one thing, but can they control it," Zane pointed out. “Kinda weird for Lucario to miss an attack like that." "None taken," Korrina replied. "Don't worry about it, Lucario. You're just used to your new power yet. Once you mastered it, we’ll be unbeatable. I totally believe in you." "Alright, Pikachy, get up close and use Quick Attack!" And Pikachu darted off quickly at Lucario. "Intercept with Power-up Punch!" Korrina commanded vigorously. Lucario snarled as he powered up the attack and rushed at Pikachu. He slammed the attack into the ground and went after Cocoa again by springing from a nearby rock. By now, Lucario was running circles around Cocoa. His stance seemed demented as he cornered Pikachu over and over. Wow, that speed's amazing!" Korrina noted in awe. "I have a bad feeling about this," Sunset said as her Riolu looked worried. Lucario had launched one last Power-up Punch into the ground. Pikachu jumped away, but he counter-kicked her into a nearby rock. The more Lucario tried to attack, the worse he looked. As he approached Pikachu, Ash commanded him to use Thunderbolt, but he weaved around the attack with ease. He jumped over Pikachu and used a Power-up Punch once again, without Korrina’s consent. "Stop the battle! Something's wrong!" Ash shouted, but it was too late. Lucario let out a feral howl and Power-up Punched Pikachu into the air. Then, he grabbed Pikachu's ear and slammed him into the ground multiple times. "Lucario! What are you doing!? Stop!" Korrina cried. "What's going on?" Bonnie asked. "Aura Storm is what's happening," Sunset said to her. "Lucario…is this the effects of Mega Evolution?!" Clemont asked. At that instant, his machine suddenly exploded due to an overload. “Pika...” Pikachu groaned as he tried to get back up. But before he could assume a crawling position, Lucario kicked him with enough force to destroy the stone pillar she struck. “Stop, Lucario!” Korrina pleaded. “That’s no way to act in a friendly battle!” As Ash ran to his partner, Sunset and Fluttershy blocked its path. "Stop this please!" Fluttershy pleaded. "You're in a lot of pain, let us help you!" Sunset added. "Rio!" "Luna!" “Lucario, please stop this! Lucario!! LUCARIO!!!!” Korrina pleaded with tears in her eyes. "Lucario, don’t do it!" Serena called. Bonnie shielded her eyes by clinging to her brother, Rainbow, and Hilda prepared to bring out their Pokémon. “LUCARIO!!!!! STOP!!!!!!!” Korrina shouted. "RAAUUUUGHHHHRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!" Lucario houled, rushing at us. Everyone closed their eyes, ready for the worst. But nothing happened to us. Instead, there was an intense wave of aura and what sounded like a large bell ringing. Everyone opened their eyes to see a much older Lucario, standing over us and having merely blocked Korrina’s Pokémon with a movement of his arm. Mega Lucario flew off and landed a few feet away from us, looking to attack again. Gurkinn's Lucario moved his arms out ready to protect us. "Korrina, Lucario, enough!" Gurkinn himself shouted. Lucario snarled, but he suddenly yelped and fell to the ground. In the process, he reverted back to his true form and dropped the Lucarionite. "Is everyone okay?" Applejack asked. "I'm fine..." Ash muttered seeing his closest friend was badly hurt. Gurkinn had knelt by Lucario and grabbed the Mega Stone. "McGinty, please take this." "Right-o..." Korrina rushed over to Lucario and knelt beside him. "Lucario….what happened?" At the Pokémon Center, everyone was waiting for Pikachu's recovery. None said anything since they arrived. Korrina, it seemed was the most upset. She looked as though she committed a murder. Then we heard the Pokémon Center ringer. Nurse Redheart and Wigglytuff had come out with Pikachu on the stretcher. "Pikachu has completely recovered," she happily told us. “Thank goodness...” Ash sighed in relief. "Nurse Redheart,” Korrina asked, “how's Lucario?" "Just wait a little longer,” the Nurse replied. “Lucatio’s completely exhausted, but getting better. Don't worry." That made Korrina feel a little better. "The fault is mine alone,” groaned Gurkinn. “I was so focused on maintaining our family tradition, I forgot to warn you about Aura Storm Syndrome.” “Aura Storm Syndrome?” her granddaughter asked. “Yes. It is quite common that Lucario is overwhelmed by its own aura when it Mega Evolves for the first few times. What happened today is the result of that loss of control." "It must have been pretty overwhelming to take in all that new power at once," Fluttershy agreed with Bonnie nodding. "Pikachu!" "There are cases of Pokémon ignoring their trainers after evolving. It's not uncommon," Clemont assured. "Look on the bright side: Lucario was able to Mega Evolve. I know you two will work together to control it," Twilight added. Korrina wiped her eyes. "You're right, everyone... Lucario will master that new power.” She then turned to the Mega Evolution Guru. “Grandfather, I would be honored to train under you, and I will do whatever it takes to make things right… to make you proud." "Perhaps the best way for you to learn to control this aura is how I learned..." Gurkinn began. "I’m sending you on another training journey. In the Misty Mountains to the east, there is a trainer who has guided me since I was young. Her partner is also a Pokémon capable of Mega Evolving. She will no doubt teach you the meaning of Mega Evolution as once she taught me." "I understand..." Korrina replied. “One more thing… while you are on this journey, only use Mega Evolution as an absolute last resort.” "Korrina, how about we come with you," Sunset suggested. “We can all train together. And the more friends on your side, the less you have to put yourselves at risk." "That's right. It'll be more fun going together," Rarity added. "I'll go, too!" Pinkie added. "Of course, I'll come, too!" Clemont added. “We’re all in this together,” Rainbow stated with the girls along with Jaden and Zane nodded. "I want to earn a Gym Badge from you when you're at your strongest, Korrina!" Ash told her "You have Mega Evolution. Now, you just need to master Aura Storm Syndrome, and we can have our gym battle." Korrina smiled. "If we master Mega Evolution, you'll never get that badge, you know," she snarked. "Well, we won't know till I try, right?" After Lucario fully recovered we all made our way to the edge of Geosenge Town. McGinty was waiting. “Here’s that photo you lost, Korrina,” he stated and handed her the photo. “And one more thing before you go...” He reached into his pocket and pulled out a gauntlet. Embedded on the side was the Lucarionite, ground down to fit thereon. Korrina gladly accepted it. “Thank you, Mr. McGinty.” "Korrina, Lucario,” Gurkinn shared his final thoughts, “how will you handle the power of Mega Evolution and Aura Storm Syndrome, I don't have the answers. But they're for you to find on this journey. I wish you the best of luck..." Korrina then suddenly hugged her grandfather. “I won’t let you down, grandfather. I’ll make you proud.” Gurkinn returned the gesture. “I know you will...” And so, our heroes set off on a new journey with Korrina and Lucario, complete with a new task. Just what will we gain from our adventure? The mysteries of Mega Evolution lie ahead, as the journey continues... To be continued...
Chapter 27-Calling from Beyond the Aura!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 27-Calling from Beyond the Aura!Following up on where we left off, our heroes witnessed Korrina’s Lucario mega evolve for the very first time, but it went on a rampage. The reason for this rampage: Lucario lost control of its own aura, a phenomenon Korrina’s grandfather called Aura Storm Syndrome. To coax with this, Korrina was given a new trial by her grandfather. This assignment was to go to the Misty Mountains and train with his old mentor. With Clemont prepping lunch, Korrina and Sunset decided to have the battle to help Lucario hone her abilities. Lucario’s opponent was Riolu. “Excellent dodge, buddy! Now, use Rock Smash!” And Riolu followed her trainer’s command. “Lucario, dodge it!” Korrina called. Her partner made a rather impressive backflip to evade the oncoming attack. “Now, use Bone Rush!” The staff formed in Lucario’s paws, and he charged forward. “Dodge and use Metal Claw!" Sunset shouted. Rloiu leaped up in time to avoid the Bone Rush and began his counterattack. But Lucario deflected it with a Power-Up Punch. Once again, Lucario had acted without his trainer’s consent. “This battle is over,” Sunset shouted, and both Pokémon stopped. “Lucario, you did it again. Remember what Gurkinn said before we left Geosenge Town?” In the past... After Lucario had fully recovered, Nurse Joy and Wigglytuff wheeled him back into the lobby, where his trainer waited. “Lucario has fully recovered. Thank you for waiting,” Nurse Joy stated. “Thank you, Nurse Joy,” Korrina replied. “Glad you’re feeling better, Lucario.” Then Gurkinn stepped up. “Lucario,” he began, “there’s something you need to know… During your battle today, before you lost control, I noticed you had attacked without Korrina’s command. Relying on your own instinct rather than listening to your Trainer so much is part of the reason you were overwhelmed by your own aura. Complete understanding between Trainer and Pokémon is essential for mastering Mega Evolution." “I’ve already assigned Korrina to a new journey. In the meantime, I want you to work on battling with your trainer, not with your instinct.” Then Gurkinn turned to Sunset. “Miss Shimmer, I want you to keep tabs on Lucario. If he acts before he listens, remind him of what I said.” "I do my best sir," Sunset replied. “This is a bad habit you need to break.” Sunset finished as Lucario nodded in understanding. It wasn’t long after that when I heard Bonnie calling us. Apparently, Clemont had finished lunch. After we packed up the battle, we joined the others for lunch. Lucario joined the others as they ate the Poké Puffs Serena made for her. "Say, Korrina, I heard you and Lucario grew up together, right?” Rainbow asked. “That’s right,” she replied. “Lucario’s like a little brother to me.” “If I may, what kind of training do you do at the Gym?” “Well, my family’s Gym specializes in Fighting-type Pokémon, so not only do the Pokémon have to become strong but so does the Trainer. Ever since I was a little girl, and before Lucario evolved from Riolu, we’ve trained vigorously side by side. We even battled against my grandfather and his Lucario a few times before.” “That sounds like a very good training exercise for you,” Clemont commented. “Yeah, I guess. Grandfathers also introduced me to so many Trainers in the process, some of which with Pokémon who could Mega Evolve.” “Really?” Ash asked. “Like what?” “Well, besides Mega Lucario, the first Pokémon I saw who could Mega Evolve was an Ampharos.” Clemont flinched. “I didn’t know Ampharos could Mega Evolve. I wonder if Dad knows…” “I gotta look this up now,” Rarity pulled out her Pokédex and punched in the name. “Here it is. ‘Excess energy from Mega Evolution stimulates its genes, and the wool it had lost grows in again. This energy also awakens its long-sleeping dragon blood, making Ampharos an Electric- and Dragon-type." "I'm sure once Riolu evolves, I make sure it can Mega Evolve," Sunset said. After they finished lunch, the group continued on our journey. Soon, we made it to a cave at the edge of the mountain range. Serena checked her guidebook. “Looks like this cave is a shortcut to your grandfather’s friend’s place...” “We best keep close while we’re in here,” Clemont stated. “It’s easy to get lost in a cave.” And with that, we made our way in. Clemont activated his Heliolisk lamp to better illuminate the path for us. But soon, they came across a fork in the cave. Three different paths stood in front of us, and we could not see natural light in either direction. “This could be trouble…” Ash groaned. Before we could find anything, though, we heard screeching from behind. Out of nowhere, a colony of Noibat swooped in and flapped over our heads. “What’s that?” Ash held up his Pokédex. Noibat.The Sound Wave Pokémon. Noibat’s ears emit ultrasonic waves that can disturb its prey’s sense of hearing and damage opponents. the Noibat began attacking us, stuffing themselves into our faces, carrying our Pokémon by the ears forcing them to scatter. Ash, Serena, Bonnie, Rarity, Twilight, Sunset, Applejack, Lucario, and Zane had escaped as a number of us were separated from everyone else. As night began to roll around, a lot of us were getting hungry. Serena pulled out a few of her Poké Puffs for us to share. As they ate, Lucario did not want any of them. “Don’t you want your Poké Puff?” she asked. “You seemed to love them during lunch.” “Maybe he’s worried about Korrina,” Bonnie suggested. “I’m a little worried about Clemont, too,” “I’m sure they have each other, so they should be fine,” Ash assured us. “And if not, we’ll find them as soon as possible tomorrow morning.” That made Lucario feel better… …temporarily. When night rolled around and the rest of us had gone to sleep, Ash heard noises nearby. Ash woke up to find Lucario practicing his Bone Rush under the light of the moon. So I got up to confront him about it. “Can’t sleep, huh?” Lucario however was unfazed. "I know you’re concerned for Korrina, and I can kinda relate," Ash told him. “This is the longest Pikachu and I have been separated in some time. But you know, we always find one another in the long run.” I could tell that got attention. “Like you and Korrina, we share a bond that no one can break. Sure, we can’t do something as fancy as Mega Evolution, but together, we’ve done things I could scarcely believe at first. I know you can overcome this Aura Storm Syndrome thing together.” And that was enough to calm Lucario to the point of him getting some sleep. With Clemont, Rainbow Dash, Jaden, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Korrina, Hilda, and Pikachu... “I can’t help it,” Korrina replied with a small smile. “Whenever Lucario’s not around, I can’t make myself fall asleep. Not so much a feeling of stress, more of a discomfort.” “I get you,” Pinkie smiled. “Like when you’re younger and you can’t sleep because you lost your favorite toy.” Her smile soon then changed to a look of unease. “Though… it’s not just that,” she told me. “Something about my battle with Ash in Geosenge town… I don’t quite understand.” “You mean about Aura Storm Syndrome, right?” Applejack asked “Yeah… that was the first time Lucario ignored me. He’s usually very obedient.” “I’m sure there’s a logical reason for that… maybe he couldn’t hear you for some reason?” Clemont suggested. He couldn’t hear me…?” Her thoughts lingered back to what happened at that battle. “Maybe because Lucario’s aura was so strong, he was in too much pain to listen.” “Right. In any case, we’ll get our answer when we get to Misty Mountain. I know you two can conquer this Aura Storm Syndrome. You’ll make your family proud.” She smiled at me in thanks. And soon enough she was able to fall asleep. As morning came, Clemont and the others got ready to get moving. "Now. I think we should start looking for them," Clemont said. "Okay," Korrina agreed. "Uh, guys, take cover!" Pinkie screamed as avoided a Flash Cannon and Sludge Bomb attack. "What in tarnation?" Applejack asked. As if her words had summoned them, Team Rocket appeared and started to give off their motto. "Team Rocket!" Rainbow shouted. "Not you clowns, again," Hilda remarked. "Taking your keystone and your Pokémon is no joke," Jessie said. "You're not taking anything!" Pinkie said. "Togekiss, Out!" "Magmar! Golurk! Marshtomp!" Jaden three of his Pokémon. "Ninjask! Torchic!" "Grovyle! Roggernola!" Both Applejack and Rainbow called theirs. "Pumpkaboo!" "Inkay!" "Simisear!" "Staraptor!" "Yamask!" "Slumga!" "Magenmite!" Team Rocket called for theirs, all of them including Meowth, Wobbuffet, Murkrow, and Houndour being geared up. "Witness, our Mecha Evolution Power Armor Mark II!" Cylde shouted. "Using science to amplify a Pokémon is wrong!" Fluttershy glared at them. "Wrong we'll show you! Flash Cannon!" Clyde shouted as Magenmite fired Flash Cannon at Fluttershy before it could hit, one herPokéballs popped out showing Drillbur who came in and took the attack. "Oh my goodness, Drillbur are you okay?!" "Drill!" "Ninjask. Hyper Beam! Torchic Fire Spin!" "Roggernola, Power Gem! Grovyle, Energy Ball!" The four of them fired their attacks only for Wobbuffet to use Mirror Coat and send to the air. "Korrina, can you battle alongside, Pikachu?" Pinkie asked. "No problem, Pikachu, Thunderbolt!" "Golurk, Shadow Ball!" Both Pikachu and Golurk aimed their attacks at Team Rocket but were stopped cold by Slumga's Rock Slide. "Simisear, Fire Blast!" Simisear used Fire Blast that hit both Pikachu and Golurk. "Staratpor! Use Aerial Ace!" Staratpor headed straight for Korrina with Aerial Ace only to be stopped by Korrina's Luacario who used Bone Rush to block the attack then the rest saw Ash and the others catching up. "Thank Celestia, you guys okay," Twilight was relieved. "So what did we miss?" "Team Rocket has their Pokémon being power-up by their device," Applejack said. "And can't even get close," Rainbow asked. "I'm open to ideas." "There's is one solution, we have to Mega Evolve," Korrina said. "Lucario, are you ready?" Lucario nodded. "Good! Now Mega Evole!" Lucario became Mega Lucario and stood at the ready. It used Bone Rush with the attack hitting its targets then got out of control. He was about to hit Rarity and Cottonee then Torchic muster its strength and stop it with Flame Charge then started to glow. "You're evolving already!" Rainbow was stunned as Torchic evolved into Combusken. "Combusken!" Combusken shouted. "Stop it, Lucario!" Korrina shouted. Lucario then turns to her and tries to strike her with Bone Rush, but it stopped just moments before striking her. Lucario stood there frozen in place then turned and face Team Rocket. "Now Bone Rush!" Lucario used Bone Rush striking both Pumpkaboo and Inkay just Combusken knock out Staraptor and Slugma with Brick Break. "Togekiss, wrap it up!" Togekiss used Aura Sphere and send Team Rocket flying. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" "Woobuffet!" "Murkrow!" At that moment, Lucario returns to its normal form and is on its knees. "Lucario, you okay?" Korrina asked. I'm fine, just tired. "You still have long ways to go, but you're on the right track," Sunset said and Riolu nodded in agreement. "I wonder what it will take to get Lucario to master this power?" Applejack asked. "Time will tell, AJ, all we can do is help whenever we can," Twilight replied. To be continued...
Chapter 28-The Bonds of Mega Evolution!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 28-The Bonds of Mega Evolution!From where left off our heroes decided to help Korrina and Lucario to master their Mega Evolution power so Lucario won't freak out. After dealing with Team Rocket, they finally made it to Pomace Moutain. "Here, guys, Pomace," Sunset told them. "Korrina would like to the honors." Korrina headed to the front door and knocked. "Hello there? I'm Korrina from Shalour City. M grandfather told me to come to see you," Korrina said. The door opened and Mawile with a Mawileite attached stepped out. "So, where's your trainer?" "Here I am. Over here," A voice said from behind the group just as Mawile ran to her. "Thanks for watching the house, Mawile." "Mawile!" "Oh, my stars. Well, how do you do? I'm Mabel," she introduced herself. Then the group introduced themselves. "So, I was told you were coming. Why don't you demonstrate how strong you are?" "Sure," Korrina smiled. Much later both Mabel and Korrina were on opposing sides of the battlefield. "Alright, let's begin," Mabel said. "Ready? Lucario? Mega Evolve!" Korrina shouted and Lucario Mega Evolved and released a small aura wave. "Such a fine aura. Now Mawile, Mega Evolve," Mabel said Mawile also Mega Evolved. "So that's a Mega Mawile! I can't wait to see how this battle turns out!" Ash exclaimed. "Pika!" Lucario started the battle with a Power-Up Punch, but Mawile just jumped and dodged. Lucario annoyed, made a Bone Rush and went in for the attack. Mawile just kept dodging no matter how hard Lucario tried to hit her, seeing an opening Mawile used Iron Head to hit Lucario and then threw him. That's when Lucario lost control and charged with Power-Up Punch. Mawile counterattack with Fairy Wind and Lucario gets slammed into the ground before turning back to normal. Korrina then runs up to Lucario and helps him up. "Don't worry, you'll be able to control your powers in no time. Remember, that's what we came for," Korrina tells Lucario before turning to Mabel. "We promise to do our best. Please Mabel," Korrina tells her. Mabel then takes the group to a flower room. "Pretty flowers," Fluttershy says, admiring the room. "Thanks, I picked them earlier, and since they're so beautiful I thought I'd have Korrina and Lucario make an arrangement for me," Mabel explains. "I'm sorry but I think our time would be much better spent doing some training." "No need to be so hasty, Would you all like to make some arrangements?" Mabel asks the group and they nodded. As the group got to work, Sernea, Rarity, and Zane went for flowers that corresponded with their Pokémon, Ash, Rainbow, Pikachu, and Swellow went for the biggest, Bonnie, Dedenne, Pinkie, and Sandile, were trying to use the most, Fluttershy, Lunatone, Zane, and Totodile work with most beautiful ones, Korrina, Lucaio were going for the best, While Hilda, Applejack, Jaden, and Sunset went with whatever seemed to work well. "Chespin, the future is now, thanks to science! Clemontic Gear On!" Clemont shouted then revealed a gardening device. "Data from every work of art since the beginning of time has imputed this has the ultimate artistic touch. Its name, Flower Arranger I!" Clemont said. "Flower Arranger I?" Serena askes. "Seriously, who comes up with a name like that?" Rarity whispered to Serena. "Boring name!" Pinkie exclaimed. "Witness the future of flower arrangements," Clemont said as the device expertly cuts the flower stems and place them in exact spots. On a scale of 1-10 with 10, 1 being not bad, 10 being explosive bad, how will this end? Espeon asked Twilight. Then on cue, Clermont's device starts to speed up at a rapid pace then explodes in everyone's faces. "I'll go with a 10," Twilight said as everyone was covered in soot. "AHH! MY HAIR!" Rarity shrieked before slapping Clemont's face hard. "No offense, Clemont, you're kind of asking for it," Rainbow said seeing him dazed. Hours later... "Well done everyone. Your arrangements are a reflection of your personalities," Mabel said seeing the finished flower arrangements. She then starts to describe what she sees in each arrangement starting with Rainbow Dash. "From this arrangement, I can see as a trainer and Pokémon, Rainbow Dash, and Swellow's hearts have become one. This is a powerful piece," Then look over to Korrina's. "It looks like you and Lucario have made two arrangements in one." "That's right. It's pretty, huh?" "Yes, I can see that you have similar personalities and understand each other deeply." "We've been together since we were little, so we're connected." For the past three days, the group continued to make flower arrangements. On the fourth day, the gang had finished their arrangements and some of them were taking it all better than others. Serena and Rarity were slouched in their room. Bonnie, Pinkie, and Fluttershy were pleased. The guys sitting on their beds. Rainbow Dash and Applejack were arm-wrestling with their Pokémon. Twilight and Sunset being knocked out. "I'm getting kind of bored," Sernea complained. "If I have to arrange one more flower I'm going to lose it," Rarity said with Whimsicott on her head. "I like it, I'm having fun," Bonnie said. "So, I am, this is amazing!" Pinkie shouted as two high-fived. "I wonder why Mabel keeps having us arrange flowers day after day?" Applejack asked. "Call me crazy, but I think this is her way of training," Jaden suggested. "She's trying to link Korrina's and Lucario's minds and with us being here, she's doing the same to us." "Makes sense," Hilda gave it some thought then Mawile came with drinks, then suddenly something that was too fast grabbed Pikachu, Espeon, and Mawile. The group ran outside to try to find whatever took their Pokémon and Mabel, Korrina, and her Lucario outside asking what happened. "I think something crashed into through the window and took Pikachu, Espeon and Mawile," Jaden explained. That's when the group hears a familiar laugh as Team Rocket's balloon comes into view and under it was a glass box with Pokémon. "Prepare for trouble, your question is flawed!" "We're out of this world, so you should be odd!" "To protect the world from devastation!" "To untie all people within our nation!" "To denounce the evils of truth and love!" "To extend our reach to the stars above!" "James." "Adagio." "Aria." "Sonata." "Duke." "Clyde," "Meowth's the name!" "Wherever there's peace in the universe..." "....Team Rocket..." "...Is there..." "To make everything worse!" "Wobbuffet." "Murkow!" "Houndour!" "What's is with you guys?" Hilda asked just as Duke fired three hooks, which Lucario avoided the first one, then the other two grabbed Jaden and Hilda dragged them up to the balloon. "What do you want with us?!" Jaden demanded. "As annoying you are, dude," Aria scolded him. "We've decided to you two will be a valuable asset to Team Rocket." "I'll never join you!" Jaden shouted back. "That could be arranged," Clyde snapped his fingers and had Magnemite use Thunder on him making him scream in pain. Jaden! Lilligant and Marshtomp shouted. "Lucario, let's free our friends," Korrina said. "Sunset will you help us?" "You got it," Sunset agreed. "Please, that sounds like a second-rate song. Pumpkaboo, let's go," Jessie said as she called it out. Lucario then jumps into the air and Mega Evoves before going for a Power-Up Punch. "Not so fast, Inkay. Psybeam!" James commanded. Inkay fired the Psybeam stopping it. "Shadow Ball!" "Psybeam!" Pumpkboo launched Shadow Ball and Inkay did Psybeam again Lucario dodged both attacks but strumbled on the landing and its aura took hold again. "Its aura is making Lucario lose it again," Rainbow said. Lucario ran toward Team Rocket's Balloon. "Staraptor, Air Slash!" "Mangemite, Soinc Boom!" Staraptor tries to stop him with Air Slash. Lucario destroys the Air Slash with its paws and tries to use Power-Up Punch but Mangemite hit him with Sonic Boom before it lands. Lucario then tries to attack again but Korrina rolls in right in front of him. Lucario then bites down on her wrist. "Lucario, please listen to me, one heart, two viewpoints, rememberer that, we got bring them together and transform that into strength," Korrina said to it then Lucario came around. "Save love dovey stuff for later, Staraptor, Air Slash!" Staraptor fires Air Slash at Korrina suddenly, Lucario used Bone Rush to deflect the move. "Okay, Mangemite, Thunder!" "Psybeam for a third time!" Mangenmite and Inkay fires their attacks. "Alright counter!" "Pumpkaboo, Shadow Ball!" "Dodge and attack the Shadow Ball." Lucario hits the Shadow Ball with ease, and Mangemite's Thunder and Inkay's Psybeam hit both Staraptor and Pumpkaboo. "Now. Riolu, Meteor Mash!" Riolu used Meteor Mash on Staraptor and Pumpkboo and both Pokémon were hurled right into the cage Jaden, Hilda, and the Pokémon were freed and landed on the ground safely. "We're not going to take that lying down," Duke snapped. "Fine by me, Golduck, out!" Hilda said as Golduck appear. "You said, Marshstomp? Lilligant? Are guys up for a battle?" Jaden asked as his two Pokémon nodded. "What a coincidence, neither are we. Now Mawile, Mega Evolve," Mabel said and Mawile appears next to Mega Lucario. Pikachu and the others also got ready to fight. "Finish this, with Dark Pulse!" Pumpkboo fires Dark Pulse at Mawile. "Now, Fairy Wind!" Mega Mawile countered with Fairy Wind, taking out the Dark Pulse and sending Pumpkaboo into the ballon. "Inkay use Psybeam!" "Staraptor, Gust!" "Mangemite, Thunder!" Inkay tried to use Psybeam, but Pikachu and Marshstomp hit it with Thunderbolt and Water Gun. Lilligant uses Energy Ball to stop Staraptor and Mangenmite. Then Lucario then surprised everyone as it starts to form a sphere. "Lucario, you learn a new move!" Korrria cheered. Lucario fires Aura Sphere and Goldduck combines with it his Water Pulse and combo mover sending Team Rocket into another blastoff/ "We're blasting off..." "...Again!" Sonata and Meowth said. "Wobbuffet." "Murkow!" "Houndour!" "That was some Aura Sphere," Rainbow commented. The next day... "Thank you for everything. We're really glad we came here to see you," Korrina told Mabel as the group was to set off. "You're most welcome. Remember, although you're now able to control Lucario's aura. you must continue to improve," Mabel told Korrina. "Right, we sure will," Korrina promised. "Korrina, guess this is goodbye," Ash tells Korrina which confused the group. "Why? Aren't we all going to the same place?" Bonnie asked. "Korrina and Lucario can control its aura, so we need to train harder and harder so we can win that badge. We'll do our very best to win." "I understand, we'll see you there," Korrina said before skating off with Lucario running right behind her. And so, with Korrina being able to have Lucario to Mega Evolve, it will be much harder for Ash to beat her as the journey continues.

Chapter 29-Forging Friendship in the Forest!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 29-Forging Friendship in the Forest!As our heroes continue their way to Shaulour City, they encounter through the forest have they encountered a Hawlucha which Ash caught despite its draw with Froakie with learning how to battle in the sky Ash's Fletching evolved into Fletchinder. Our heroes had stopped to do some training near a waterfall and Ash was training with Froakie. Froakie then used Pound on the waterfall for a brief moment. Nice work, Froakie. Pikachu said. "Awesome stuff, just like that," Ash told Froakie. "Wow, they're really pumped up," Bonnie pointed out. "Looks like Froakie moving faster than ever," Rainbow commented. "They're really pumped up for their battle with Korrina," Rarity stated. "As they should, knowing Korrina well, she won't it make for Ash to win," Sunset said. "No matter, I'll beat Korrina," Ash proudly said. "Confident are we?" Rainbow smirked at him. The group then heard something come down the waterfall and look up to see a massive log about to fall on Pikachu. Froakie reacted quickly and formed a white blade in his hand and sliced through the log. "What move was that?" Applejack asked. "That was Cut," Hilda explained. "Wow, Froakie you learned how to use Cut!" Ash cheered. "Froakie must have learned that move trying to save Pikachu," Twilight theorized. "It's not uncommon for a Pokémon to find a new power in a stressful situation," Rarity said. "When we were in the Bamboo forest, Chimchar had learned Inferno." "Yeah, the first time we met Froakie, it jumped in and saved Pikachu," Jaden explained. "Hey Ash, a double battle would be a way to see how far Froakie has come," Clemont suggested. "Good idea, Up for it, Jaden?" Ash asked. "You bet!" Jaden answered. Then two stood across from each other and got ready for battle. "Ready Marshstomp?" Jaden asked. I'm always ready for a battle. Marshstomp was raring to go. "And for next Pokémon, Magmar, go!" Alright, who am I battling this time? Magmar asked then saw Marshstomp next to him. You got to be kidding me? A double battle? Jaden, I don't think this a good idea. Marshstomp stated. "Come on, there's nothing wrong with double battle and besides its training, and Magmar don't try to burn down the forest like you did last time," Jaden said. I'll try, but no promises. Ash meanwhile sent out Hawlucha and before the battle Froakie and Hawlucha fist bump on working together. "With that out of the way, Marshstomp. Brick Break on Froakie, and Magmar Flamethrower on Hawlucha." "Hawlucha, Froakie, dodge!" Froakie jumped clear over Marshstomp's attack, but Hawlucha stood in place and allow Magmar's Flamethrower to make contact just as Froakie landed. "Now it's our turn. Froakie, Bubble. Hawlucha, Karate Chop, rapid-fire!" "Counter with Water Gun, Magmar, Hyper Beam!" Marshstomp stopped the Bubble with Water Gun, and just as Magmar prepared to use Hyper Beam, Hawlucha did a barrage of Karate Chops that send Magmar back then got hit by Froakie's Water Pulse. Are you okay? Yeah, I have taken worse hits before. That Hawlucha is not only strong but fast since was able to strike before Magmar's Hyper Beam was launched. Time to step it up. Jaden thought it and then noticed some tension between Froakie and Hawlucha. What were you doing? Procecting us from unnecessary damage? "Hawlucha, what's wrong?" "I think Hawlucha doesn't want Froakie getting in his way," Applejack theorized. "Is that true, Hawlucha?" More or less. Are you kidding me? "Let's finish this, Rock Tomb to blind them, and Hyper Beam to close it out." Masrhstomp blinded both of them with Rock Tomb then Magmar's Hyper Beam made contact knocking both of them out. Nice going. Your welcome, by the way. "Okay, Magmar, won't don't you take a breather," Jaden return to its Pokéball. Looking over Froakie and Hawlucha were going at it with each other. Thankfully Ash was able to stop them before it got worse. "You two are supposed to be on the same team! You're supposed to help each other out!" Ash snapped at them. Sorry, Ash. Froakie and Hawlucha said in sync then glared at each other. Hawlucha then bonked Froakie on the head. What was that for?! For getting in my way. What!? You heard me! Ash then stepped between the two and pulled them apart. "I told you two to quit it!" "Yikes, I guess Froakie and Hawlucha are not seeing eye to eye," Sunset said to the others. "I know where this is going, Pokémon bonding time," Twilight said. Hours later... "Alright, try Super Flying Cut once more!" Hawlucha then jumped into the air with Froakie right behind him. Froakie, however, landed badly on Hawlucha's back and one of Froakie's hands got in Hawlucha's eye making him unable to maintain control making them slammed into the ground. "That's not good, that fifth time you tried it," Fluttershy said. Watch where you going! And keep your hand out my eye! It's my fault you can't fly in a straight line! Will both of you quit it!? Pikachu shouted. "And can you try to be friendlier," Ash advised just as Froakie and Hawlucha's stomachs then rumbled. Fluttershy gave both of them an Oran Berry. And just about to try the combo move again, then out of nowhere a Vine Whip came out of threes and grabbed Ash, and pulled into the trees. Fluttershy, her Pokémon, and Ash's Pokémon ran after him. Suddenly a Confuse Ray slammed into Fluttershy and the last she felt was vine wrapping around her feet. Then the Pokémon followed them. Meanwhile, both Ash and Fluttershy woke and saw a Pokémon has carried them. "Who's that Pokémon?" Ash asked then scanned it. Trevenant. The Elder Tree Pokémon. A Ghost and Grass Type. Trevenant is able to control trees. It traps those that cause harm to the forest and never lets them escape. "Wait, we'd never hurt the forest," Fluttershy pleaded then Froakie and the other Pokémon arrived in time. "Guys, look out for the Confuse Ray!" Ash said. Froakie used Frubbeles to blind then both Pangoro and Hawlucha prepared to attack but it went right through. "Trevenant is also a Ghost-Type, fighting-types won't work on it." Trevenant prepared to use Shadow Claw at both of them. "Lunatone, Use Ice Beam!" Lunatone fired Ice Beam from behind which made Treveant lose its grip on both Ash and Fluttershy. "Thanks," Fluttershy thanks as Hawlucha gave Ash his hat back. "Okay, all together! Let's work together! Super Flying Cut!" "Pangoro, Crunch. And Lunatone, Ice Beam!" Just then Treveant hit them with a Will-O-Wisp sending them all to the ground and Trevenant prepared to use it again but instead, Ash got attacked when he stepped in front of it. "Ash, are you okay?!" Fluttershy asked. "I'll be fine," Ash assured her just asTrevenant yielded. "Wait, I have a question, what did you want from us?" Fluttershy asked then Trevenant answered with Fluttershy somehow understanding everything he said. "Trevenant said he needs our help." Much later after a bit of walking, they saw the problem. A Sudowoodo and a Bonsly are trapped in an electrical net. "No wonder why your friends are trapped in and you our help to get them out," Fluttershy theorized then the rest of the gang showed up. "Are two okay?" Bonnie asked. "Yeah, we're fine, Trevenant just needed our help with to get those guys out of that net," Ash explained. "What an awful thing to do," Rarity said. "Why do I get the feeling that a certain group of people was behind this?" Rainbow thoughted. "We'll get you down, Ninjask, Fury Cutter!" Ninjask used Fury Cutter and cut down the net freeing both of them, then out of nowhere another net appeared and caught Pikachu. "Ooh, I caught me a big one!" Everyone saw Team Rocket on a nearby cliff. "Prepare for trouble, you don't know by now." "Make it double, we'll tell you anyhow." "To protect the world from devastation." "To untie all people within our nation." "To denounce the evils of truth and love." "To extend our reached the stars above!" "Jessie." "James." "Adagio." "Aria." "Sonata." "Duke." "And Clyde!" "Team Rocket Blasts off at the speed of light!" "Surrender now or prepare for a forest fight!" "Meowth that's right!" "Wobbuffet," "Murkow!" "Houndour!" "Team Rocket, not you brutes again!"Rarity shrieked. "Well the same goes for you," Adagio replied. "It's all part of our groundbreaking, patent-pending rare Pokémon stealing strategy," Clyde stated. "Of course. You guys set the trap for Sudowoodo and Bonsly," Jaden realized. "How low can you go?" Hilda asked. "We can all of kinds of low, and besides that net was insulated, for any given scenario," Jessie said. "Pumpkaboo, let's get rid of that crew!" "Inkay you too!" "Let's have some fun, Venipede!" "Froakie! Hawlucha! Let's work together!" Ash said. "Pumpkaboo, Shadow Ball!" "Dodge it!" Pumpkaboo fired Shadow Ball forcing both of them to dodge. "Froake, use your Frubbels!" Frokaie blinded Pumpkaboo with its Frubbles then allow Hawlucha to use Flying Press on it but it right through. "Did you forget that Ghost-Type Pokémon cannot be damaged by Fighting-Type moves!" "I'm one step ahead of you guys!" "Uh-oh!" "Water Pulse!" Froakie fires the Water Pulse that knocked out Pumpkboo. "Inkay, use Tackle!" "Venipede, Venoshock!" "Dodge one more time!" Froakie and Hawlucha dodged the Venoshock with Froakie landing perfectly on its back with Inkay tailing them the Hawlucha flew to avoid Inkay's Tackle. "Inkay, use Psybeam!" Inkay fired at Froakie but only to find out it was a Frubble decoy. "Now Super Flying Cut!" Froakie descended and gave devasting Cut attack to Inkay followed by Hawlucha doing a Flying Press, knocking it out. "Inkay return!" James returns Inkay to its Pokéball. "I got that 'we're screwed' feeling again," Sonata gulped. "Maybe we should beat before things go really bad!" Then a Vine Whip was wrapped around Duke's arm that holding the remote was yanked out of his hand then Trevenant smashed it with Wood Hammer freeing Pikachu, "Oh, Magikarp!" Duke exclaimed. "Let's scram while the scramming is good!" "Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" Pikachu fired Thunderbolt which Team Rocket got shocked and then sent flying. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" "Murkow!" "Houndour!" Team Rocket disappeared in a white flash! "So long, losers!" Rainbow said as everyone cheered. Hours later as dusk approached, the group waved goodbye to Trevenant and the others and continued to walk.
Chapter 30-Pokémon Summer Camp! Enter the Shadow Five!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 30-Pokémon Summer Camp! Enter the Shadow Five!Hi there, I'm Professor Sycamore. As being Pokémon researcher, I work with trainers in the Kalos Region, to help with their journey. It's time for my annual Pokémon Summer Camp. Were together you and your Pokémon can create marvelous memories. "Wow! There it is!" Ash exclaimed as the group made it to the summer camp. "Pika Pika!" ... "Wow, the beach is pretty," Bonnie exclaimed. "Ah, the smell of love air," Zane expressed. "Gotta love it." "Hey it's Professor," Pinkie said seeing him waving. "Long time no see," Twilight said. "Hi there," Serena gestured. "It's nice of you to invite us," Fluttershy added then the group headed in their direction. In the midst of our hero's journey to Shalulour City. Professor Sycamore has invited them to take part in his annual Pokémon Summer Camp. As the heroes talk to the Professor, Team Rocket who disguised themselves as chefs overlooks from afar. "Just as we thought, the Twerps did make the scene," Jessie said. "We hit that one on the head, and with the Professor as host, their appearance is a must," James implied. "Let's take it real slow, and when the time comes we'll all their Pokémon away in one fell swoop!" Meowth said. "And swimming piles of gold but for now let's earn their trust," Clyde said before they headed to the kitchen. Meanwhile... "And that's what happens," Ash finishes explaining his story. "Wow! Great! What a marvelous experience, you met Mega Lucario." "Mega Evolution is cool as it gets. the moves, the power, their appearance, it's amazing!" Twilight exclaimed. "You just had to be there." "I wish, so that means you will be battling Korrina and that powerful Mega Lucario at the Shalour Gym soon." "You bet! The stronger the opposition the more fired up I am. I win that gym badge." "Pikachu!" "Well, I hope your stay is a marvelous time." "Thanks." "Here's the cabin you be staying in," Sunburst showed them their cabin. "It's the cutest thing ever," Bonnie said. "Everyone will spill into teams as you can see, your team is called Team Froakie." ... "Ooh, bunk beds, I call top bunk!" Pinkie said as Rarity looked out the window. "My starts, the view is incredible," Rarity said then looked toward a battle. "What do we have here?" Then the group headed to the beach... "It looks like a battle is going on." "It's a Squirtle." "Squirtle?" Zane scanned it. Squirtle. Tiny Turtle Pokémon. It shelters itself in its shell, then strikes back with spouts of water at every opportunity. The opposing Conkeldurr used Super Power and tried to land a hit but Squirtle dodged with little effort and then used Skull Bash to score a direct hit and Conkeldur was knocked out. "Man that Squirtle is something," Jaden exclaimed. With Rainbow Dash... "Who's next in line to challenge me?" Rainbow asked then suddenly got hit by a Volt Tackle. "What in the world...?" "Pika Pika!" A Pikachu was right in front of her. "Pikachu," Rainbow exclaimed then looked at its tail seeing a heart-shaped tail. "You can't be Ash's Pikachu, you're a girl. You seem kinda familiar." "Pikachu, how many times do I have to tell you not to Volt Tackle on someone," A girl with blue hair, both dark and light approached Rainbow Dash She wore aviator goggles, golden ear clips, white trainers, and a yellow shirt with a thundercloud on it. "Well, I'll be a Mankey's uncle, Rainbow Dash long time no see!" "Indigo!" Rainbow came over and pulled her into a quick hug with back pats. "What're you doing here at the Sycamore Summer Camp?" "Well I got a call from the professor himself to check out his camp of his," Indigo explained. "I've heard that you traveling with the kid that Garchomp in Lumsiose City." "Yeah, his name is Ash, and I'm traveling with him and his friends," Rainbow said to her. "So you want to battle?" "Do you even have to ask?" Indigo smirked as the two prepare for battle. With Pinkie Pie... "Look at this Sandy," Pinkie Pie said to her Sandile who was in her hair being unamused. "A seashell, that's a keeper." "No way!" A girl wearing a simple pink shirt with pictures of lemon slices on it approached Pinkie with her Bonsly. "Pinkie? I haven't seen you since that radical dance-off back at Club Neon!" "Lemon Zest! Nice to see ya!" Pinkie Pie high-fived Lemon Zest immediately, jumping as she did so. "So what's new with you?" "You know, traveling around the world, been practicing on rhythmic battling with Roxie, you?" "Seeing so many people and Pokémon..." Pinkie started to explain. With Applejack she had finished her battle with Sugarcoat... "I'm surprised AJ, you had that Treecko for nearly two months and already evolve into Grovyle." "You're not bad yourself, having two of the strongest Steel Types is impressive," Applejack said. With Fluttershy... "Hey, Fluttershy!" Sour Sweet ran over and gave Fluttershy a big, long hug. "How are you doing?" "Oh. I'm doing well, Sour Sweet." Fluttershy pulled herself out of the hug and helped brush some dirt off of her dress. "How's Clefairy?" "Doing fine. There is the occasional blip here and there, but other than that, it's pretty okay," Sour Sweet said to her. With Rarity... "Hello there." Rarity slowly walked towards Sunny Flare. "I don't think we've met outside of the Friendship Games. My name is Rarity, or Miss Rarity if you prefer, darling." "Nice to meet you, Rarity. My name is Sunny Flare." She graciously stood up and walked over with the elegance of a lady. "Your Whimsicott and Chimchar are quite nice." "Why thank you, darling. I do like them but that Buziel of yours is adorable," Rarity commented. "That he is. He's a very loyal and strong friend just like the others." Sunny replied. "And you're an excellent trainer. I believe your team is doing great. How about we exchange information sometime?" "Sure, sounds good," Sunny said taking out her Pokédex. She typed in information on the screen. "Name? Name? Ah yes, 'Sunny Flare', age 16 years, born at a Pokémon Center near Anistar City." "I see. Well, it was lovely meeting you," Rarity turned around leaving Sunny behind. ... After the battles ended, the group went to visit Professor Sycamore and his crew for refreshments. While doing so, the group noticed a lot of Pokémon from the island. Ash and his team were walking down the path, while the rest of the party was heading toward Professor Sycamore and his crew. "Hey, Professor Sycamore!" Ash greeted the Professor. "Is this where your boat is?" "Indeed it is," Sycamore responded. "This is a rather interesting place isn't it?" "Yeah, it really is," Ash looked around with interest. "So how's everything going here?" the Professor looked around. "Are you guys enjoying yourself?" "Yep, it's great," Ash nodded. "Heh, yeah, sure," the Professor said as he led his crew inside. "If you need anything, I hope you don't mind my saying so." "Okay, thanks," Ash thanked him. Once inside, they sat down around a table and ate. "Professor, this is delicious!" Pinkie Pie exclaimed. "Thank you," Professor Sycamore replied. Hours Later as night fell... Serena was sitting on the dock with Fennekin on her lap as Serena groomed her tail then Rarity came up to her. "Mind if I join you?" Rarity asked. "Sure, I don't mind." "I noticed that you're looking down, care to talk about it?" "I was just thinking. Everyone seems to have a dream, but when looking at me, I don't have one." "Well, everyone's dreams are different so naturally it's not easy to find one." "But I have a question for you, why did you become interested in fashion?" "I really can't say, but it was my passion to do fashion after experiencing what the wonder of Pokémon can do. I knew I could make dresses for people and Pokémon alike. But I am confident that you find your dream as well." "Thanks for the advice," Serena said. "Don't mention it," Rarity said as they looked up to the night sky.

Chapter 31-Pokevison Showdown!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 31-Pokevison Showdown!It was a bright and early day as our heroes were already doing their jog and to no one's surprise Clemont was falling behind. "Come on, Clemont, no one likes a slowpoke!" Rainbow called back. "Serena's not fooling around is she?" Fluttershy asked. "That's because she's excited about what we're going to be doing in camp today," Jaden told her. "You're going to get left behind big brother," Bonnie called back. Once they finished their run, they got fully ready for the day and headed down to breakfast. As soon as everyone was finished. Sycamore stood on the podium. "What a lovely day, it's perfect summer camp weather. Today, you'll all be making PokéVision videos," Sycamore told them and most of them got pretty excited. "I'm pretty sure some of you have made some before but as a reminder, it refers to making a Pokémon promo video. Poké Vision lets trainers and Pokémon show what makes them special to a much wider audience. And so far today, each team is going to make their own Poké Vision video. We also have materials to make Poké Puffs, so please put them to good use. Now, you must have these videos done by this evening. Then we will take a vote right here to see which team won." The groups then headed out to make their videos. At Team Froakie's cabin... "It's called Friends," Serena told them as she showed a rough drawing of it their closest Pokémon. "That's a good concept," Twilight noted. "I'm not so sure, Swellow is more battler than a movie star," Rainbow stated. "And that works. The only she'll have to do is be himself," Serena reassured. "And I'll be making some Poké Puffs." "Then let's aim for the top," Ash said. "We'll take every we've learned on our journey and put it all in our Poké Vision video. It's going to be great!" Clemont said confidently. "Oh, no, I know where this goes," Applejack groans. "Of course, the future is now thanks to science! Clemontic Gear!" Clemont magically pulled out a robot. "Revised and better than ever. My latest invention: The Pokéstar Shooter Mark II! Ash, Jaden, Twilight, and Sunset, I still need to make some minor adjustments, so could you guys help me out?" "Sure not a problem," Twilight answered. Very Much Later... "So, what's next?" Hilda asked. "Now location scouting," Serena answered. "What's that?" Ash asked. "Gee, if only its name didn't explain it," Rainbow joked. Their search took them deep in the forest, and Serena was yet to be satisfied. "I think we're getting pretty far from camp," Fluttershy said after a while. "If we go a little father, I think we may find the perfect spot," Serena responded. "You said that for the past 20 minutes," Rainbow exclaimed. "At this rate, we won't have time to make the video." "Yeah, you're right," Serena said, slightly miserable. "Now what?" Sunset asked. Serena then gasped and Rainbow followed her gaze to see a small field through the trees, but something was off. "There! How does that look?" Serena asked, "It's the best place I've seen so far with all those flowers blooming," she continued and started to run over there. "Wait, Serena!" Ash called out as the group followed her. "I'll just have a quick look and then we'll start!" Serena said. That's when the field turned out to be a cleverly concealed cliff. Serena stepped on a weaker portion and it collapsed under her weight. Ash, Rainbow, and Applejack tried to pull her up but ended up going down the cliff as well. "Ash! Rainbow! Applejack! Are you alright?" Serena asked once they stopped sliding. "I'll live. I've been through worse," Rainbow asked. "Yeah, how about you two?" Applejack asked. "Yeah, we're fine," Ash and Serena answered as Pikachu, Combusken, and Grovyle then ran up to their trainers. Ash tried to stand but he fell back down, holding his right ankle. "Must have twisted it. Don't worry, I'll be fine," Ash said. "I'm sorry. It's my fault," Serena apologized. "No! It's okay," Ash responded. "Hey!" Clemont called from the top. "Is everyone okay?!" Rarity asked. "No, Ash hurt his foot and can't walk!" Rainbow said. "Understood! You three stay with him!" Twilight told them. "We'll get help!" "I'll see if I can find us another way out here," Applejack said as she and Grovyle headed off. Once Applejack left, Serena got out a washcloth and wet it in the river. "Ash, can you take your shoe so I can get at the injury?" Serena asked and Ash did so then Serena placed the cloth on the injured spot. "I feel so awful about this." "Don't beat yourself, Serena, the important thing is Ash is okay," Rainbow said to her. "Yeah, and thanks for worrying about me, Pikachu," Ash said to his partner. "Pika." "Your Pikachu is a lot like Indigo's Pikachu always being concerned about you," Rainbow said. "Pikachu and I have been in a lot of tough spots, that's for sure," Ash responded. "Pikachu." "As long as we're a team, we're fine," Ash said as Serena let out Fennekin from her Pokéball. Moments went by as Applejack came back. "Anything?" Serena asked. "No. All the ways out are steep with Ash's foot," Applejack answered. "So, we're stuck until the guys come back with the rescue team," Ash responded. "And we still have to do the Pokévision video to do," Rainbow implied. "Right," Serena responded while wondering how they get it done in time. "You know, we've done a lot at camp. And when I'm battling, I'll be able to use it all." "Including the fish contest? That's going help you battle?" "Yeah, you bet. Everything we do isn't a waste of time. Everything on our journey to the Kalos League." "You really think that?" Rainbow asked. "Yep," Ash answered. "Never thought of it all like that. The only experience I ever use in battle is what do In battle," Rainbow told him. "But I'm done yet. After all, I've got to make my dream come true," "A dream," Serena muttered. "Something wrong?" Applejack answered. "Sometimes I wonder... What is my dream? What is that I want?" "Everyone asks at some point in their lives. But one way or another their answer will be found. Besides you have time and lots of it." "Hello!" A voice called out, The group saw Professor Sycamore with Clemont and the others. "There you are! You alright?!" He asked. "Yeah, we're fine!" Ash shouted back. "The rescue is on the way down now!" The professor told them. "Thank you, Professor!" Serena said as the rescuers help them out. None of them knew that were Duke, Clyde, and Sonata of Team Rocket helping them out. After thanking the rescuers the group headed off and found a path to the field Serena saw earlier. "It's beautiful!" Serena and Rarity exclaimed. "Whoa, would you look at this place," Ash commented. "And it was just off the main path," Clemont commented. "This is a great spot. Time for Pokévision," Bonnie stated. "It's perfect. After what we've been through, we'll make the best Pokévison ever," Serena said. Later that Evening... After many's videos, Team Froakie's video was finally about to play. Serena felt a little nervous as the group stood in front of the rest of the campers and the video started to play . Video starts The group was sitting in a field of flowers with their Pokémon out. The focus goes to Serena as she makes a flower hat for Fennekin. I'm Serena, and this is my partner Fennekin. "Fenne!" Today, we're having a picnic, so I made Poké Puffs. Fennekin loves them. Serena threw the Poké Puff to Fennekin, but it missed and started rolling down the hill. The Pokémon pursued the Poké Puff and it stops in front of Chespin, who eats it immediately. The Pokémon fall to the ground and Gardevoir uses Psychic to throw Chespin a bit. Oh well. Here. I've got enough for everyone. The Pokémon, excluding Chespin, jump at the basket, sending the Poké Puffs flying. Video Ends The audience gave applause and Serena felt proud of the response. "Thank you so much, everybody," Ash said. "Yeah, thanks a lot," Bonnie added then the group sat down as Professor Sycamore gave one last announcement. "Now that we've seen everyone's videos, I want you all to pick the three you like the most, other than your own of course," he said. Once everyone voted, Serena stepped outside with Rarity on the beach. "The idea of using the Poké Puffs in our video came from what we went through today," Serena said. "No kidding, Ash is a pretty smart guy," Rarity commented. "Yeah, but Rarity it would be beyond amazing to see a Pokémon Showcase and see what a Pokémon performer does too." "Yes, it would be amazing. We should probably head back now, they're going to announce the winner." "Yeah, we should," Serena said as they head back. "After counting up the vote we now have the winners. In third place is Team Charmander, and in second place is Team Chikorita. And first place goes to Team Froakie." After the applause was over, everyone headed back to their cabins and Serena fell asleep happily.
Chapter 33-Summer Camp Finale! Into the Hall of Fame!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 33-Summer Camp Finale! Into the Hall of Fame!It was the final day of the Pokémon Summer Camp and everyone was standing on the beach waiting for Professor to tell us what was the activity for today. "Good morning everyone. It's already our last day at summer camp, which means we finally decide who gets into the hall of fame. So get ready for the Team Battle Competition," Sycamore told them. "The Team Battle Competition works like a tournament. per usual the team with the top three places will get points and this is the final camp event, so let's get out there and have fun!" "So, can someone explain to me, what on earth is a Team Battle?" Applejack asked as they were in their cabin joined by Team Squirtle. "A team battle consists of several trainers forming a team and battling using various types of formations," Clemont explained. "The format could make up three-person, five-person, or seven-person teams." "Sound confusing," Serena and Rarity said. "Have you done this before?" Bonnie asked. "Sadly. I never had the chance," Clemont said to her. "Hang on, the format is three on three, right?" Hilda asked. "That means only three of us can battle." "Dang, you're right," Jaden realized. "So, who's going to sit out?" "I'll do it," Serena said out of the blue. "I only have one Pokémon." "Actually, Serena, I think that you, Ash, and Jaden should be in it," Fluttershy spoke up. "You're sure about it?" Serena asked. "I don't like battling," Fluttershy admitted. "Rarity and I, have the least battling experience," Applejack said. "And any of us we're on the team, it probably be unfair to everyone else," Rainbow noted. "Alright then Jaden and Serena, we can't lose. We'll win this competition and get into the hall of fame!" Ash exclaimed. A little while later, Team Froakie made it to the semifinals. Their opponents were Flecthling, Manectric, and Furfrou while Ash used Pikachu, Serena was Fennekin, and Jaden was using Golurk. "Now Pikachu, let's get this going with Electro Ball!" "Fenekin use Hidden Power!" "Golurk, Earthquake!" Golurk prepared to use Earthquake just as Fennekin's Hidden Power and Pikachu's Electro Ball were launched and hit all three then the Earthquake struck and all three opposing Pokémon were out. "We did it!" Serena cheered. "Marvelous! Team Froakie has made it through this battle which means they face Team Squirtle members Indigo Zap, Sugarcoat, and Lemon Zest in the final. before the two teams face other, they will have their strategy meetings," Sycamore said. At Pokémon Center... "Nurse Redheart, we're here our Pokémon," Indigo said. "Huh, what are you talking about?" Nurse Redheart asked. "What do you mean? Didn't our chefs give our Pokémon to you their check-up?" "Our chefs did that?" Ash asked. "Yeah, but it's been a while," Sunny Flare explained. "I say we split up and look for them," Jaden suggested. Once outside of the Pokémon Center, Roggernola detected some movement on the ground and started to run in that direction. "Hey, Roggernola got something," Applejack observed. Fennekin and Sandile then started sniffing in the same direction where Roggernola was going. "What, is it Fennekin?" Serena asked. "You got something, Sandy?" Pinkie asked then Pokémon followed. "I think they got something, let's go!" The pursuit took the group into the forest where they found the chefs near a covered box. Fennekin then ran up to the box and started to sniff. "Trespasser! Beat it now!" "Your nose is getting out of joint." Pinkie, there in here! Sandile told her as Fenneking tried to pull the cover off. "What have you done with our Pokémon?" Sugarcoat asked. "It's what they've done they don't want you to see," Zane answered. "What do you mean?" Lemon Zest asked. "Gardevoir, Psychic." Gardevoir used Psychic and pulled the cover to see Pikachu, Bronzong. and Zangoose all tied up with Leech Seed. "How did you know?" "I've suspected something was about you guys since I first laid eyes on you. And I was right," Zane explained. "What do you think you're doing with them?" Ash demanded. "What other reason is there?" The chefs dropped their disguises to reveal... "Team Rocket!" Rainbow shouted. "Team Rocket?" Sour Sweet asked. "Jerks, who steal Pokémon," Jaden told her then everyone was caught off guard when Sunset slowed clapping. "You know I honestly have to thank you guys for showing up," Sunset told Team Rocket. "Say what now?" Duke asked. "You have given me the opportunity to do this," Sunset smirked then grab Pokéball. "Lucario, let's go!' Lucario shouted and glare at Team Rocket. "No way, your Riolu evolve!" "Here we go again," Clyde groaned as they sent out Pumpkaboo, Inkay, Staraptor, Slumga, and Magenmite. "Lucario, Power-up Punch on Inkay and Magenmite!" Lucario prepared to use Power-up Punch as it ran to them. "Staraptor. Air Slash!" "Pumpkaboo, Dark Pulse!" The Air Slash and Psybeam got deflected much to Team Rocket's surprise. "How is that possible?" Duke questions as Inkay and Maganmite got slammed by the Power-up Punch and sent to James and Clyde. "Slumga, Rock Slide!" "Dodge and use Aura Sphere!" Lucario jumped out of the Rock Slide while firing Aura Sphere at Sulmga. The move caused Slumga to melt the cage with its body along with the Leech Seed. The trapped Pokémon ran back to their trainers. "Oh, crumbs, I think I know what happens next," Sonata shivered as if on cue Lucario fired another Aura Sphere and sent them flying. "Good work, there," Sunset told him then they fist-bumped. "Thanks, Sunset. That was amazing," Indigo said. "Anytime. Let's get back, you six have the battle to do." Much later... The two teams stood across from each other as Professor Sycamore prepared to start the match. Team Squirilte were using their partner in this and Jaden was using Magmar instead of Gollurk. "Alright teams, Are you ready for your battle? On my signal, let's go!" Team Battle Ash, Jaden, and Serena vs Indigo Zap, Sugarcoat, and Lemon Zest "Here we come, use Quick Attack!" "Not so fast, Zangoose, Flamethrower!" "Alright, Fennekin, protect Pikachu, with Flamethrower!" Both Zangoose and Fennekin's Flamethrower attacks canceled out as Pikachu kept going. "Pikachu, Volt Tackle on Pikachu, then Dig on Fennekin!" Pikachu did Volt Tackle on Pikachu, then went underground to hit Fennekin. "They're not missing a beat!" "Magmar, Mach Punch on Pikachu!" "Dodge!" Pikachu dodged Magmar's Mach Punch. "Use Slash, on Magmar!" Zangoose used Slash and sent Magmar back. "Metagross, Flash Cannon!" Then Metagross' Flash Canon hit all three of them. "They're trying to finish this," Ash realized. "They're really strong," Serena added. "We need to break Zangoose's rhythm, but how?" "Metagross, stand by for Hyper Beam!" Metagross started to charge. "Pikachu, Thunder on Fennekin!" "Hidden Power!" Fennekin's Hidden Power hit Pikachu, but the Thunder ko'd Fennekin. "Fennekin, return!" Serena returns it to its Pokéball. "Zangoose, Flamethrower!" "Dodge it, Pikachu!" Pikachu jumped over Flamethrower as Sugarcoat called out "Let her rip, Hyper Beam!" "Magmar, counter with Hyper Beam!" Magmar's Hyper Beam canceled out Metegross' Hyper Beam. "Now, Pikachu, Thunderbolt on Zangoose!" Pikachu fired Thunderbolt and took out Zangoose in one shot. "Iron Tail!" Pikachu came at them with Iron Tail. "Let's finish this, Ash! Magmar Fire Punch!" "Pikachu, Electro Ball!" Magmar knocked down Indigo's Pikachu with Fire Punch while Ash's Pikachu did Electro Ball and knocked Zangoose. "And that's the end of it! Team Froakie is our winning team you'll be in the Hall of Fame!" Professor Sycamore shouted. "Hall of Fame! Hall of Fame! We did it! We did it!" Bonnie and Pinkie shouted. ... "I guess it's time to go," Indigo said. "Yeah, it's never easy to say goodbye," Jaden admitted. "Of course, that means, we're all rivals now," Rainbow added. "For sure," Lemon Zest said. "Later take care," Fluttershy said as the two groups went their ways. "Next stop," Shalour City," Sunset said. Author's Note Sunset Shimmer.

Chapter 34-Mega Evolution Origin Story!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 34-Mega Evolution Origin Story!The group had just arrived in Shalour City earlier this morning and were currently receiving their Pokémon from the Pokémon Center after their quick checkup. "Thank you, for waiting. Your Pokémon are just fine," Nurse Joy said as she gave everyone's Pokémon back. "Great, Thanks, Nurse Joy," Ash said as Pikachu was on his shoulder. "Alright, now we can go and challenge Korrina." "Wow, Ash, you can't wait," Pinkie commented. "But still, Korrina and Lucario are strong. Are you sure ready?" Applejack asked. "And what about Lemon Zest's rhythmic battle style? You haven't mastered that yet," Zane added. "Hey, I'll be fine. As long as tackle that battle head-on, I'll be fine," Ash said. "If only he would do that," Twilight muttered to her Espeon. The group headed out the back way and they could see the Shalour Gym just ahead. "It's so beautiful," Fluttershy commented. "It sure is," Rarity said. "That's the Tower of Mastery, the gym is in there," Sunset explained, pointing to an island right off the coast. "How do we get there?" Zane asked. "I don't see any bridge," Clemont noted. "It looks like it's just floating in the ocean," Pinkie added. "So much for walking," Serena continued. "Come on, We came all this way and we can't get to the gym, that's nuts," Ash complained. "I wanna have a battle now!" "Pika Pika!" "Those who seek power, show your heart and the path shall reveal itself," Korrina said as she arrived. "Repeating your grandfather now, Korrina?" Sunset asked sarcastically. "He does have some good advice though," Korrina answered. "So good to see you again," Rainbow said as her Lucario appeared. "Good to see you again too. Welcome to Shalour City." "You came over here just to meet us?" Clemony asked. "Yeap, I figured you'd be showing up soon so I've been waiting for you. If you're trying to get to the Shalour Gym, that means one thing, you must be fully prepared to challenge me, is that true, Ash?" "Of course," Ash said confidently. "I've been training hard since I last saw you, and I've beaten every challenger." "Amazing! Awesome! But soon I'm going to beat you and Mega Lucario and win my Kalos Badge!" "Hate to ruin the moment here, but isn't the gym over there?" Applejack pointed to the Tower of Mastery. "We'll have to have to wait for the tides to drop before we can get over there, and who knows when that will happen," Hilda explained. "Wait for later!?" Ash exclaimed. "There's a saying, Those with a desire to battle must wait patiently," Korrina resited. "What are you talking about?" Rainbow asked. "It's a family motto that we lived by. It's going to be a while before we get over there." "Oh no! But I want to have a battle now." "Now now, calm down. It's okay, you'll have a bit more time to train. Remember, Korrina's even stronger now," Clemont pointed out. "I guess you're right," Ash said. "Alright, everyone out!" Ash let out all of his Pokémon so they could start. "You've caught a Hawlucha, and Fletchling evolved into Flecthinder. You've really been thinking about to counter fighting-type gym." "Sure have." "But, if you're training probably shouldn't watch, right?" "That's a good point, if you watch him train, that would give away his strategy," Clemont realized. "That's okay with me." "You sure?" Applejack asked. "We always battle our opponents head-on, We've got nothing to hide, do we?" Ash asked his Pokémon and they nodded. "Then let's get to work on our grooves, and we'll win that badge for sure." "You might not want to watch," Sunset wanted Korrina quietly. "So I don't know to counter his strategy?" "No, so you won't have a nightmare," Sunset replied as Ash started training and it wasn't going well. They were dancing, but it was all over the place. "I see what you mean," Korrina cringed a bit. "Told you," Sunset replied. The training went on for a bit and watching Ash's training made Korrina go a little cuckoo. "Okay, I think I'm going crazy watching this. You want to battle?" Korrina asked. "I'm down," Sunset said. The two headed for another battlefield not too far away from the Pokémon Center and got ready. "Alright, Lucario, let's go!" Korrina said and Lucario stepped forward. "Lucario, huh, time to go, Lucario," Sunset said as she released hers. "Wow, you Riolu evolve!" "Yeah, he evolve a few days ago and he's got some surprises." "We just see, Lucario, Bone Rush!" "Use your Bone Rush!" Both Lucario uses their Bone Rush only to be knocked back a bit. "You weren't kidding about the surprises, That's fast." "He sure is, Now, Dragon Pulse! "Dodge and use Metal Sound!" Lucario fired Metal Sound just as the Dragon Pulse made contact. "Power-up Punch!" Both Lucarios hit each other with Power-Up Punch. "Lucario! Can you still battle?" Korrina asked. "Luca!" "Great. Lucario, Mega Evolve!" Korrina shouted as her Lucario Mega Evolved. "Now use Power-up Punch!" "Stop him with Bone Rush!" Lucario prepare to strike with Bone Rush but Mega Lucario dodged it and strike with Power-up Punch. "Use Power-Up Punch!" "Metal Sound than Aura Sphere!" Lucario ran through the Metal Sound, tanked the Aura Sphere, and hit Mega Lucario with Power-up Punch. Lucario fell to the ground and returned to his normal form. "Nice work, Lucario," Sunset said. "Wow, it's really strong," Korrina commented. "Yeah, he is, he had help from Flareon and Quilava's training." "Oh shoot, we better head back." Sometime later the group stood on the beach right in front of the tower waiting for the tide to fall. It eventually happened and they crossed over. "Alright! Let's have that battle!" Ash exclaimed. "No need to be hasty," Gurkinn said as he opened the doors and stepped outside. "How are you, sir?" Nice to see you again," Ash greeted. "Glad you made it," Gurrkinn responded. "Me too. I'm here to challenge the gym!" "But before you do, you must listen to what I tell you. Fact is that's the rule when anyone comes to this island," Gurkinn started. "Here we go again," Korrina said. "What do you want to tell us?" Rarity asked. "A valuable story. It concerns Mega Evolution." Everyone headed inside to see a Mega Lucario Statue. "It's huge!" Bonnie and Pinike exclaimed. "Amazing!" Rainbow awed. "This statue symbols our family friend, and our bond with Mega Lucario," Gurkinn explained. "You see, the history of Mega Evolution began long ago with the arrival of one of my ancestors right here on the island. This man was traveling and training with his Lucario when they found two peculiar stones right here. It's generally believed that what happened next was the world's Mega Evolution." "So this where Mega Evolution started," Twilght said in awe. "That's right. Our family has lived here and protected Mega Evolution Island ever since." "Wow, this is an important place," Fluttershy commented. That is when everyone heard Ash's stomach rumble. "Whoops, empty tummy," Ash said. "The fact is, we haven't had dinner yet," Clemont told Korrina. "In that case, it's already pretty late, we can have our gym battle tomorrow. You all can stay here for the night," Korrina offered. After they had dinner, the gang was all in bed fast asleep that's when the alarm went off. "What's going on?" Bonnie asked. Everyone ran out and heard Gurrkinn yelling at someone. "Korrina, they stole the Scroll of Secrets!" He pointed at Team Rocket who Jaden, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack chased after them. "You're not getting away!" Jaden shouted. "Says, you!" Duke shot back. "Slumga. go!" "Inkay, you too!" James and Duke called out their Pokémon. "Flamethrower!" The move hit the ramp in front of the three and Rainbow almost fell off but Applejack grabbed her. "Thanks, AJ," Rainbow said. "Inkay, Psybeam!" "I don't think so! Swellow, Hyper Beam!" Inkay was hit before he could launch his attack forcing him and James to fall back. "Let's go, come on," Jaden said as he jumped the gap with Rainbow and Applejack right behind him. The three made their way to the top of the tower and found Team Rocket climbing into their balloon. "Leaf Blade!" Applejack shouted. Grovlye cut the balloon and separated the basket as the balloon flew away. "That was my head!" Meowth shouted. "We weren't ready to go yet!" Cylde added. "Do you losers ever give up?" Applejack asked. "You're going nowhere," Jaden stated. "And you're not getting this scroll," Adagio shot back as threw out Staraptor. "Time to go, Sneasel," Jaden prepared to bring Sneasel but Applejack stopped him. "Wait, I'll handle them," Applejack said as she jumped down to face them and called out Roggernola. "What, just you?" Aria mocked. "Yeah, you got a problem with that?" Applejack asked confidently. "Such sass. Kay Inkay, Psybeam!" "Slumga, Rock Slide!" "Roggernola, Flash Cannon!" Roggernola fired Flash Cannon that zeroed out the Psybeam and Rock Slide, just as Staraptor did Gust but Roggernola held its ground. "Come on. little buddy, you got this," Applejack assured it. "Rogg!" Roggernola shouted then glowed. "It's evolving!" Jaden said as Roggernola evolve into Boldore. "Boldore!" "Awesome!" Rainbow cheered. "This isn't looking good," Sonata said worriedly. "Any ideas?" "We attack all at once!" Jessie said as she release Pumpkaboo, Cylde released Excadrill, Aria and Sonata released Simisear and Yamask. "Shadow Ball!" "Psybeam!" "Air Slash!" "Heat Wave!" "Rock Slide!" "Bulldoze!" "Golurk, Earthquake!" Golurk managed to disrupt all of them with an Earthquake that caused the map to fall out of James's hand and into Jaden's possession. "Got the map, let them have it!" "Ready, Rainbow?" Applejack asked. "I am always ready!" Rainbow did a thumbs up. "Combusken, Fire Spin!" "Grovyle. Energy Ball!" Both attacks hit Team Rocket and send them flying out of the Tower. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" They screamed as they disappeared out of sight. Much Later... "Here is the scroll," Applejack said to Gurkinn. "Thank you," Gurkinn said. "That's the Scroll of Secrets," Clemont said looking at it. "What does it say? Show us," Bonnie requested. "But we're not allowed to see it, right?" Rarity asked. "Since you managed to get the scroll back, I'll make an exception." "Wow! You mean it?" Pinkie asked then Gurrkinn read the scroll to them which surprised most of them. "Uh, I don't want to sound a bit rude but is that really the Scroll of Secrets?" Rarity asked. "You doubt me? It took a lot of effort. I spent a lot of hours writing this so gym leaders could be at the peak of perfection." "So is there anything on ancestor's history?" Hilda asked. "Uh, no. Not a single thing," Gurrkinn answered then the group flopped to the ground in disbelief. "For what reasons I wasn't surprised," Sunset wondered. "That's my grandfather for you," Korrina stated.

Chapter 35-The Shalour Gym! Pikachu vs Mega Lucario!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 35-The Shalour Gym! Pikachu vs Mega Lucario!Both Ash and Korrina stood on opposing sides of the Shalour Gym with Gurrkin being the referee and everyone else in the spector area looking down on the battlefield. "I hope Ash can do this," Fluttershy said worryingly. "We'll see. Hopefully, Ash gets his head in the game before it's too late," Applejack stated as Froakie sighed. "Bummed that you can't battle." "Fro." "But look on the bright side, you managed to help Ash with him mastering his rhythmic battling, you'll have your chance to battle." "Fro!" On the battlefield... "Well, then Mr. Confidence bring it on, " Korrina said as she bring out Mienfoo. "Mienfoo, let's do it!" "Let's have a great battle Mienfoo, " Ash told her. "Ash is having so much fun," Bonnie commented. "That's true, but I wonder how useful that rhymic battle will be," Clemont pointed out. "You worried that Ash can't dance?" Rarity asked. "Honestly, I don't know if I would what Ash was doing was dancing," Hilda said. "If any case I think Korrina managed completely Ash off his game." "Stop! Who's side are you on anyway?" Bonnie asked her. "Bonnie, the real action in a gym battle begins from the very moment a trainer challenges a gym leader," Clemont explained. "You would know that better than anyone," Sunset pointed out. "Hawlucha, I choose you!" Ash called out. Sunset looked at Korrina to see her response and she was smiling. "She was expecting that," Sunset realized. "What do you mean?" Twilight asked. "I know Korrina, she played him right into her hands and I'll bet he doesn't even know," Sunset told her as Gurrkin made his call. "Let the battle commence!" Gurrkin said. "Alright then Ash, show me what you've got!" "Don't disappoint us Korrina, let's get out Shalour Gym stratgry rolling!" Hawlucha started to dance and it seemed to be going well. "Hawlucha's doing it!" Pinkie cheered. "That's great, but doesn't Ash need to dance too?" Bonnie asked. The group looked down and saw that Pikachu was the one dancing. "Pikachu's the one who's got the rhythm," Rainbow said. "That's awesome Hawlucha. Way to go." "There's the rhythm. but how are you going to use it? Let find out." Korinna thought to her herself. "High Jump Kick!" "Use your rhythm to dodge it!" Hawalucha didn't even move as Mienfoo slammed her knee into Halwucha. "Let's keep it up! Drain Punch!" "Use your rhythm to block!" Once again, Hawilucha failed to do so as Mienfoo land Drain Punch twice and her enrgery was restored. "Hang in there and use Karate Chop!" "Block it with a kick!" Mienfoo threw her foot up and sent Hawlucha back to the other side of the field. "Like I said, Korrina's in compete control," Sunset said. "If Ash doesn't find way to work the rhythm it's over." "Force Palm!" Mienfoo put her hand on Hawlucha's chest and sent Hawlucha flying. "Come on Ash! Don't disapoint us!" "Can you still battle?" Ash asked Hawlucha. "Haw!" "Come on Ash! You can do it!" Both Pinkie and Bonnie shouted as Ash looked up to them. Ash then smiled and said to something Pikachu then turned to Hawlucha. "That rhymitc battle worked because Lemon Zest was doing it, but we've got our own rhythm. Dancing may Lemon's thing but it's not mine. We'll show them our own battle style." "You honselty think you can change your stratgey mid-battle?" "Yeah, Hawlucha know what to do for sure!" "But in the end, you're still going to lose! High Jump Kick!" "Dodge!" Just Mienfoo got close, Hawlucha jumped out of the way and Minefoo hit the ground. "What just happen?" Fluttershy asked. "The downside of High Jump Kick, if missed the user takes damage," Zane explained. "That's the Ash I know, doing it his own way. Let's see can he turn this around." Twilight thoughted. "Now Kartae Chop!" The move connects but Mienfoo throws Halwlucha into the air. "Nope! Force Palm!" "Flying Prees!" Mienfoo prepare to use Force Palm but it was too late as Hawlucha jumped and slammed down in Mienfoo. When the dust cleared, Mienfoo lay on the ground, knock out cold. "Mienfoo can't battle. Hawlucha's is the winner," Gurrkin delcares. "Yes!" Ash shouted. "Alright!" Serena, Rarity, Bonnie, and Pinkie cheered. "That's was too close for comfornt," Fluttershy was relived. "As Ash played by his own rules, everything turn around, for the better," Rainbow pointed out. "But this battle is far from over," Applejack reminded her. "There you go, 1-0." "Alright Ash, you might be aheaed now, but next one won't be easy, my second Pokémon, Machoke!" "Hawlucha, return. Next up is Flecthinder! I chosse you!" "You got this, Flecthinder!" Rainbow cheered along with Swellow and Crobat. "Alright Flecthinder, Flame Charge!" "Machoke, run and jump!" As Flecthinder closed in Machoke jumped right over him. "Brick Break!" Machoke's fist hit Flecthinder right to the ground. "That's some power," Jaden commented. "Get up, Flechinder, now!" Machoke then landed back on the ground. "Low Sweep!" Machoke kicked Flecthinder and sent him to the end of the stadium but Fletchinder speard his wings to stabilze himslef. "Way to hang in there, now use Steel Wing!" "Grab it!" Machoke grabbed Fletchinder's wings, holding him in place. "Now throw it!" "Razor Wind!" Machoke threw Fletchinder into the air but he right himself and lauched the attack on Machoke. "Focus Blast!" "Flame Charge!" Machoke held on to Focus Blast as he waited for Flecthinder to close. Machoke then lauched the attack and Flecthinder dodged it and the last second and slammed into Machoke, knocking him out. "Machoke can't battle. Fletchdiner is the winner," Gurrkinn declared. "Ash may have the lead, but Mega Lucario can turn it around to Korrina's favor," Sunset said. "Now the batttle has come full circle." "Now for my final Pokémon. The ace in my hole! Lucario!" "Challenger! Will switch our your Pokémon?" "Nope. I'm stick with Flecthinder." "Here we go," Rainbow said. "Lucario, go! Unlock the power within! Mega Evolve!" Korrina touched her Keysotne and Lucario Mega Evolved. "Let's do this. Flame Charge!" "Countered with Metal Sound!" Mega Lucario let out the screeching and it stopped Flecthinder in his tracks. "Push through!" Flecthinder pushed through and pushed Mega Lucario back a bit, but shrugged it off. "Aura Sphere!" "Steel Wing to block!" Ash's idea worked and the Aura Sphere was stopped. Mega Lucario then appered right behind him. "Power-Up Punch!" Mega Lucario slammed down on Fletchiner sending the Ember Pokémon to the ground and out of the match. "Fletchinder is unable to battle. Lucario wins." "Hawlucha, I choose you! Karate Chop, let's go!" "Best of luck to you," Fluttershy said. "You can do it!" Bonnie cheered. "This battle has reached its peak." "Pikachu and Lucario are ours." "Espeon, Psybeam!" Twlight shouted. Espeon turned and fired Psybeam in the direction of the voices came from. The group looked and saw it was Team Rocket. "Not you, chumps again," Hilda said. "What are you even doing here!?" Rarity shirked at them. "What else are we doing here, making a grab for Pokémon!" Adagio retored. "Yeah, stay out of our way!" James added. "Fro Fro!" Froakie shouted. "What did he just say?" Sonata asked. "He saying we're ones interfering in thier work," Duke told her. "Wait you can understand Pokémon as, well?" Rainbow asked. "Yeah, for me it just click like that," Duke repiled. "Still there's no doubt that you're planning to do something downright awful," Fluttershy accused. "You're not interferring with Ash's battle," Jaden declared. "The shame is wasting our time with your ideal threats," Jessie said as she threw out Pumpkboo. "You want to fight, then bring it," Aria added as she threw our Simisear. "Pumpkboo dear, use Shadow Ball." "Simisear, Fire Blast!" "Lucario, take them!" Sunset said. Lucario jumped in front both attacks doing next to no damage. "Aura Sphere!" Lucario lets loose a blast of aura power at both of them knocking them out then Clyde, Duke, Sonata, Adaigio and James sent their Pokémon. "Applejack, care to finish this?" Sunset asked. "Glady, Boldore, Flash Cannon!" Boldore fired Flash Canon that sent Team Rocket right out of the gym. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" Team Rocket disappeared out of sight! "Did something just happen?" Ash asked from the battlefield. "Nothing that we couldn't handle, so keep going," Zane answerd. "Flying Press!" "Lucario, Bone Rush!" The two Pokémon closed in on each other but Lucario hit Hawlucha in the back with Bone Rush. "Aura Sphere!" Hawlucha didn't even have time to dodge as Aura Sphere hit Hawlucha in the chest sending him to the wall. Hawulucha then slid back to the ground. "Hawlucha is unable to battle. Lucario wins." "Your weren't kidding, Sunset, Korrina's best Pokémon takes the field and now the score is tied," Rainbow said to Sunset. "Okay Pikachu, I choose you!" "We know that Pikachu's never deafeated before. I don't know what Pikachu will do with Mega Lucario," Clemont said. "He's already taken damage from Fletchinder and Hawlucha while Pikachu is fresh, but it won't be easy," Twlihgt said. For a while, no one moved. "Why isn't anyone moving?" Applejack asked. "In match like of this, both of them know this is a match they can't lose, from here on out they're going to extra careful," Zane explained. "I don't think I've ever nervous," Rarity said holding Whimsicott closer. "Alright Pikachu, use Quick Attack!" As Pikachu ran forward, Mega Lucario stance shited, like he drawing Piakchu in. "Use, Electro Ball!" Pikachu jumped into the air and threw the Electro Ball at Mega Lucario. "Bone Rush to hit it back!" Mega Lucario send the Pikachu move back at him but barely hit Pikachu. "Iron Tail!" "Block it!" Pikachu slammed his tail down but Lucario shook him off. "No kick'em!" Mega Lucario swung his foot up sending Pikachu flying. "Pikachu, Thunderbolt!" Pikachu flipped in the air and fired. The move hit Mega Lucario causing a small explosion. "A Thunderbolt after getting hit?!" "That's our unique battle style." "Aura Sphere!" Mega Lucario thre the sphere at a failing and exposed Pikachu. Pikachu fell to the ground looking like he out he started to stand back up. "Can you still battle, buddy?" Pikachu responded by firing a massive Thunderbolt upward. "You guys are looking good." "That's becasue I'm going to win that badge!" "Metal Sound!" The sound waves ripped loose once again and Pikachu crouched down. "Use Thunderbolt and destroy that Metal Sound!" Pikachu fired causing causing Lucario to stop. "Aura Sphere!" "If Pikachu gets hit after that Metal Sound it's all over," Twilight reazlized. "Pikachu, use Iron Tail and knock down the Aura Sphere!" "What's he getting at?" Hilda asked. Pikachu jumped up and used the Aura Sphere like a springboard and sent himself high into air. "It's like back at the Cyllage Gym when Pikachu used Draco Meteor Climb!" "I never seen a stunt like that," Hilda said. "Making a side note." "Iron Tail!" The moves met in the air and gravity forced both Pokémon back to groung causing a massive dust cloud. When the dust cleared, both Pikachu and Lucario were standing but looking worse for wear. "Amazing they're still standing!" Applejack was amazed. "It won't be long noe before this match is decided," Sunset noted. "Ash, Pikachu, you're amazing! Using our move like a springboard to get up that high," Korrina complimeted. "Irhough that would be enough to wrap this up, you're a tough Korrina," Ash repiled back. "But it is about to wrap this up, Power Up Punch!" "Iron Tail!" The moves connected forcign both Pokémon apart, but they weren't stopping. "Electro Ball!" "Aura Sphere, go!" The two oves collided as they were fired sending Pikachu further into the air. "Finish this with Thunderbolt!" Pikachu let loose Thunderbolt once more, tearing up the ground as it traveled toward its target casuing a massive explosion. Everyone waited in uncertainty to see if either Pokémon would collaspe. When the smoke cleared, Lucario was on the ground in his normal form. Lucario is unable to battle. Pikachu wins. With a score of 3-2. the match goes to Ash, the challenger. The group ran down to the battlefield and Serena called out, "Congrats, Ash!" "That was the most exciting battle ever!" Pinke declared. Korrina then got the group's attention as she skated up. "This proves your victroy at the Shalour Gym: The Rumble Badge," she said, handing Ash the badge. "Thanks, Korrina," Ash said. "I just won the Rumble Badge!" Ash put the badge in his case with the other two that he earns so far. "So, it's on to badge to badge number four," Clemont stated. "So, where do you plan on going next?" Korrina asked. "I don't really know where we'll go from here," Ash explained. "Courmarine City is the closet from here," Gurrkinn explained. Serean pulled out her pad and looked up the city. "Wow! Courmarine City's got a monorail!" "Next stop, Corumarine City!" Pinkie shouted. As everyone headed out of the Gym, Gurrkin appraoched Sunset. "Miss Sunset, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping my grandfather to control the power of Mega Evolution, and for that I wanted to give you this," Gurrkin said as he handed her an red and yellow bracelt with the a Key Stone in it and a gauntlet with Lucarionite, ground down to fit thereon. "Thank you," Sunset gladly accept them. "Let Korrina know that I'm challegnig her to a battle only this I got Mega Evoultion. "I will." To be contiuned...
Chapter 37-The Clumsy Wigglytuff and the Furious Salamance!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 37-The Clumsy Wigglytuff and the Furious Salamance!Deep within a forest lay a sleeping Salamance and Team Rocket members Jessie, Adagio, and their Pokémon were slowly approaching it with the others just outside. "Dear little Salamence, first we're going to catch you, then attack the Twerps and steal Pikachu," Jessie said. "So don't worry. Fear, no fear. Everything is gonna go smooth." Adagio accidentally kicked a pebble onto Salamence's head, and it woke up startlingly both of them. "Uh wait, the idea of catching you never crossed my mind, wait did I say that out loud?" Adagio asked. "Guys, pretend that you fell asleep!" James exclaimed. Jessie, Adagio, Pumpkaboo, and Staraptor all fell to the ground, pretending to be asleep, making the dragon type confused, and then sniffed them. "Alright, somebody does something and do it now," Adagio whispered. "Any ideas?" James asked. "I got one! Jessie place the Happyface Sticker on it," Sonata said. "Have a nice day," Jessie said as she placed the sticker, and it activated. "Alright," Adagio said. Then Salamence roared fiercely, then the Happyface turned red. "Uh, what's going on?" Duke asked. "The Happyface is on the fritz!" James exclaimed. "Not only that I think it's broken," Aria added then Jessie and the others tried to run away just Salamence unleashed a Hyper Beam that Jessie and the others ducked out of the way but Starator, Pumpkaboo, Meowth, and Misdreavus went flying out of there then the Salamence took off. "Meowth." "Pumpkaboo." "Staraptor." "Misdreavus." Continuing their journey to Courmarine City Our heroes had stopped for a little rest at the nearby Pokémon Center. "Hello there," Ash said as the group entered, then Wigglytuff that carrying a box of Pokéballs tripped itself to the ground. "Oh my goodness, are you okay?" Fluttershy asked as she helped the Pokémon up, and the others gathered the Pokéballs. "Wigglytuff." Wigglytuff tried to help but slipped on a Pokéball and fell again. "Not again," Jaden said. "Are you alright?" Bonnie asked, then Nurse Joy and Nurse Redheart came in. "Wigglytuff, you took another nasty fall," Nurse Joy said. "Wiggly." "I wish you were more careful," Nurse Redheart said as they helped Wigglytuff up. "See, Wigglytuff just started here." "So it's for her?" Rainbow Dash asked. "Wiggly." "Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it," Nurse Joy said, then they an ambulance siren. They saw an ambulance with an emergency team with some Pokémon. "What happened?" They asked. "A Lionne and a Bidoof," Twilight said, seeing both of the injured. "Is there any way we can help?" Applejack asked. Moments later, Applejack, Serena, Bonnie, and Pinkie helped Wigglytuff, taking the injured Lionne inside. "If it's not a problem we can lend a hand," Rainbow offered as Ash carried Bidoof inside then another ambulance arrived this one where a disguised Team Rocket carted off Pumpkaboo, Meowth, Staraptor, and Misdreavus. "What is their condition?" Nurse Joy asked. "Badly injured," Jessie said. "They need help stat," Sonata added. "I understand, you guys take the others," Nurse Joy said as she carted off Pumpkaboo. Then Clemont carted Meowth, Sunset, Jaden and Twilight carted Staraptor and Rainbow carted off Misdreavus. "If the science twerp is here," Jessie started. "Then Pikachu is here as well," Aria said as all of them grinned. "I love it when things work out. "Don't worry everything's going to be fine," Clemont said. Then Wigglytuff adjacently bumped the cart and sent Meowth flying to the wall. "What happened?" Clemont asked as Duke and Clyde walked and saw Meowth on the ground and they both ran to him. "Hang in there pal," Duke said. "What the heck are you doing? These precious patients!" Clyde said. Then Rarity and Zane brought in a Teddiursa. "This one needs treatment fast," Zane said. Hours later. "Everyone, your Pokémon are ready to go now," Nurse Redheart said. "Pardon me for asking, but how did Teddiursa get injured?" Hilda asked Breeder Molly. "I don't know, it's a mystery. Teddiursa was playing around in the yard when a Salamence came.out now where and attack and it was out of control." "Whoa, Salamance," Ash commented. "Pika Pika." "So it acted out of control for no reason?" Serena asked. "Something must've happened, can you tell us more about Salamance's appearance? Was there anything unusual?" Nurse Joy asked. "Well let's see, it did to be in some kind of pain." Farmer Molly asked. "Don't worry you can count on us," Nurse Redheart assured. Much later as the moon was bright and beautiful, Wigglytuff was gazing upon it, reflecting on her constant clumsiness was a problem for everyone. Then Pikachu and Espeon joined her talking to each other unaware that Team Rocket was eavesdropping. "Our big chance to catch Pikachu and Espeon is here," Duke said. "And the Wiggytuff will be a good bonus," Jessie said. "Payback time for that knock on my noggin," Meowth exclaimed then they all nodded at each other. "Pikachu." "Espeon." "Wigglytuff." Both Twilight and Ash yelled as they walked on the hill. "There you guys are, both nurses are looking for you," Twilight said. "She really cares a lot about you. Why don't you go back?" Both Pikachu and Espeon climbed onto the trainer's shoulder. "Anyway, we're going to be back, catch you later," Ash said as they headed back to Pokémon Center. Back at the Pokémon center, the group was chilling in the lobby as Bonnie was looking through books. "So they still can't find Salamance?" Ash asked. "No such luck," Sunset said to him. "Officer Jenny helping out, but so far nothing." "You know Wigglytuff convinced it can't do its job. It takes time for everyone to get used to a new job," Serena said. "Yeah," Ash agreed with her. "But Wiggytuff has been taking its mistakes personally." "Pika." "Wow look at this," Bonnie picked up a book with a Wigglytuff cover and then showed it to everyone. "Look everyone, it's about Wigglytuff." Bonnie opened the book showing Wiggytuff fighting a Flygon. "Wigglytuff is so awesome." "You know, Bonnie, that book was based actually what happened when my mother was a trainer who witness it," Zane said to her. "No way!" "Yes, it went on like this," Zane prepared to tell his story. "Long ago, there was a massive outbreak rampaging Flygons then a lonely Wigglytuff came and single-handled pacify their anger. Then heal every Pokémon in the village." "Wigglytuff's cool!" ... ... The next day everyone was outside as Clemont built another Invention. "Behold, this is Mechaized Movatier, my device will help be motivated to get up and go," Clemont explained. "Please allowed me to demonstrate. Bonnie, would you be my assistant?" "Sure okay," Bonnie agreed then Clemont put the device on her head. "When you put it on it automatically engages," Clemont explained then the device pulled out confetti then it produce the voice of Clemont. "It uses a miniature cheer that I built in, it revolves around their confidence to move on." Then every one gave him straight faces. "What you don't like it?" "That's enough, Clemont," Bonnie gave it back to him. "Well, I think it's pretty cool," Ash said. "Pika." "Wiggytuff," Wigglytuff stepped wanting to try it on. "Sure, you're up next." Clemont put his invention on Wigglytuff's head. then started to produce smoke. "Clemont makes it stopped," Serena told him. "Quickly you got to press the off button," Clemont exclaimed. Wigglytuff fell to the ground then Pikachu close the lid then it exploded on them destroying it. "Look like get up and got up and went," Bonnie said as Clemont groaned then another ambulance showed up then showed a disguised Clyde and Adagio. "We happened to be in the area," Adagio said. "We heard an explosion, so here we are," Clyde added. "Please give us the injured right away." "It was a loud explosion but I assure you no one was hurt," Hilda said. "We're the pros we'll decide who's hurt. Just leave it to us," Clyde said as they put Pikachu, and Wigglytuff on the cart and took off. "Hey what are you going with them?" Ash asked as they grinned and drop their disguises. "Prepare for trouble, you'll what will do," "And make it double Pokémon cooed," "To protect the world from devastation," "To untie all people within our nation," "To denounce the evils of truth and love," "To extend to the stars above," "Clyde," "Adagio," "Jessie," "James," "Aria," "Sonata," " and Duke," "Team Rocket blasts on the scene at the speed of light!" "Surrender now or prepare for a five-alarm fight!" "Meowth, that's right!" "Murkrow!" "Team Rocket!" Twilight shouted. "Many thanks for healing up Meowth and Pumpkaboo," Jessie said. "And to express our evil gratitude, we'll now grab Pikachu," James added. "No chance in that, Pikachu, Thunderbolt!" Ash shouted. Pikachu did Thunderbolt but it was absorbed. "It's kind of funny that you keep forgetting that we are prepared for Electric types," Duke said. "So we bid you au revoir," Adagio said as they got inside and took off. "Pikachu!" "Wigglytuff!" "The Pokémon Center has an ambulance, let's follow them," Nurse Redhert said. "We did it! We did it!" Jess cheered. "Pikachu's is ours!" "The Boss we love us for guts and glory," Meowth added then stopped the truck due to a Pokémon blocking the path "Do you mind?!" Aria snapped at the Pokémon who turned and found out it was Salamance. "Is that the same one that we tried to use?" Jessie asked. "The one we used the Happiness Hyponis Machine on?" Duke asked. "We know what that means," Sonata gulped as Salamance roared. "Time to burn rubber!" "Right, going in reverse!" Meowth put in reserve making their van go backward then Salamance chased after them then fired multiple Hype Beams the van swerved at everyone but got hit by the third one which opened the back door which allows Pikachu, Espeon, Wigglytuff to land safely and started to run just as Ash and the others showed in their van. "You guys are okay," Twilight was relieved then look at Salamance. "It's the Salamance that attack Teddiursa," Zane said as Team Rocket popped their heads out of the truck. "You got us to help us, we're scared out of our wits and all we did was give it a happy face," Sonata pleaded. "What's that mean?" Jaden asked/ "We tried to catch it but failed," Sonata explained. "Our Happyface Hyponis Machine is a dud!" Duke exclaimed. "Hypnosis Machine? That must be the thing that's stuck on its forehead," Clemont realized as Salamance freaked out. "It's going crazy!" Jessie shrieked. "What a horrible thing to do," Fluttershy said. "We need to do something, but what?" Applejack asked as Salamance fired a Hyper Beam at them forcing them to dodge. "How we can help it when it's trying to blast us!" Rainbow exclaimed just as Salamance fired a Flamethrower at them but Wigglytuff came forward and use Protect to bypass the Flamethrower. "Everyone we need to back up!" Everyone backed up as Salamance used Dragon Pulse on Wigglytuff but Wigglytuff braced it and it was fine as she was walking through it. "Wow, it's just like in the book!" Bonnie asked. "The Dragon Pulse is not working, how?" Applejack asked. "Wigglytuff is a Fariy Type and Dragon Type moves have no effect on them," Clemont explained. "That's how the Wigglytuff in the book defeated all the Flygon," Rainbow realized. Then Wiggytuff used Heal Pulse on Salamance forcing it to stop as Wigglytuff console it, Pinkie ran over to them and took the Happyface off of it. "There you, all better," Pinkie as Salamance roared in happiness. "Yeah, thanks to Wigglytuff," Sunset said. "Wigglytuff you were awesome," Bonnie cheered. "Talk about a close shave," Cylde said. "I thought we were done for," Duke exclaimed then Salamace glared making him ditch the truck and to started to run away but it was too late as Salamance fired Hyper Beam at them. "WE'RE..." "...BLASTING..." "...OFF AGAIN!" All of them said. "They asked for it," Hilda simply said as everyone laughed. After overcoming its anxiety Wigglytuff is sure to good assistant to Nurse Joy and Nurse Redheart And soon heroes set course for Courmaine City for Ash's Next Gym battle as the journey continues Meanwhile, after blasting off, Sonata Dusk returned to Salamance's cave looking for it. "Salamance are you here?" Sonata asked then Salamance faced her. "I know that you are upset that tried to use you, and I'm sorry for what they did to you. But I'm offering to make amends," Sonata offered it a taco which Salamance enjoyed it. "So does mean where buddies?" Salmance licked her face which made her giggle. "I guess that's a yes."

Make Yours Dreams a Reality! It was a typical day, as our heroes were chilling in a nearby park with Serena brushing Fennekin's fur with Bonnie watching. "Oh, can I have a turn?" Bonnie asked. "Of course, here you go," Sernea gave her the brush and Bonnie started to do it with Fennekin as well with the Fox Pokémon enjoying it. "Does that feel good, Fennekin?" Bonnie asked. "Fene!" Then Chespin came out asking to brush as well. "How about you get brushed too, Chespin?" "Chespin!" "Step right this way," Bonnie said as she brush Chespin's spines as Rarity had her arms crossed. "She should any minute," Rarity said. "Rarity! Serena!" Sunny Flare shouted as she and Buizel ran to them. "Bui!" "Sorry, we're late! I hope you were waiting long." "No, it's fine," Serena said. "Sunny. how have you been?" Jaden asked. "Nice to see you again," Pinkie said. "Last time is at summer camp," Zane said. "Yeah the memories, great to see all of you." "So, what are you going to show us today?" Serena asked. "Wait to hear this, Aria is doing an exposition performance at the Pokémon Showcase right here in Lagoon town, and best of all she has a partner in tow. So I wanted to invite you all to come with me," Sunny Flare told them. "Her Pokévision videos are great! Bonnie commented. "Aria? Awesome!" Ash exclaimed. "She's the top performer, the Kalos Queen," Jaden said. "But I never heard about her having a partner?" "Oh, yeah, due to Aria's success, The Showcase Committee decided to have guys compete in it and will have a Duo Division where teams of two can compete and will be seeing today." "I can't wait to see her," Serena said. "Fan girl, alert," Rainbow said under her breath. As our heroes continue their journey to Courmarie City Gym where Ash vying for his fourth Kalos Gym badge Their friend Sunny Flare has invited them to see the Lagoon Town Pokémon Showcase. "I can't wait to see all the Pokémon perform," Fluttershy said. "Will there be a bunch of different Pokémon?" Sunset asked. "Lots of them," Sunny Flare said. "Dedenne, let's watch together," Bonnie said as Dedenne was on her head. The stage lights dimmed and fancy lights showed. "It's staring!" Serena squealed. Meanwhile, above them, Team Rocket was in attendance. "I give, what's a Pokémon Showcase anyway?" Meowth asked. "Well, trainers and their Pokémon do various kinds of performances," James told him. "Well, it sounds intriguing," Adagio said. "But we'll see how good their craft is," Jessie added. "You talk that you think performance expert," Cylde said to her. "That's because I am." A platform then rose a man with a casino appearance along with him was a Kelefki. "Bonjour my fellow audience and welcome, I am your host Black Ace, prepare yourself for competition Magnifique. And now the Lagoon Pokémon Showcase will amaze, starting with our Rookie Duo Divison," The crowd cheered as he continued. "But first, reigning Kalos Queen, Aria, and the talented Cavalier had agreed to put on an exposition performance for one and all," Black Ace finished. The platform went under the stage as the stage went dark. "It's showtime!" A voice shouted as fingers were snapped. Then a flame appeared as it started to spin, Eventually, a spotlight turned on to reveal a Braixen and the flame was its branch. "Wow! Aria's Fennekin evolved into Braixen," Sunset noticed. Braxien continued to twirl her stick and eventually used Fire Spin creating a tornado of fire. And here there are, give it up for the Kalos Queen and Cunning Cavalier! Then Aria and Cavalier showed as well as his Banette. Aria and Braixen then started to a bunch of twirls with Braxien's branch while tossing it between them as Banette did Will-O-Wisp around them. Braixen used Fire Blast from her mouth as Banette did Night Shade both beams crossed to make red and purple sparkles that fall on the crowd. "And scene!" Cavalier said as they take a bow and the crowd cheered. "Now that's what I call hot!" Sonata exclaimed. "She ain't called queen for nothing and the Cavalier dude is jaw-dropping," Duke added. On stage, the light shines on Black Ace. "Now that everyone is all fired up and raring to go, please welcome today's first duo. From Landy Town, Hally, Audrick, Furfrou, and Pyroar." The performance started with Furfrou and Pyroar hopping through a ring of fire that Pyroar produce and both hopped through multiple times. As it went on, a Pancham and A Froslass were seen on stage doing their own performance. Pancham jumped up and tried to swing on the spotlight but it fell off and Pancham fell to the floor. Two-stage employees tried to capture them but Froslass used Ice Beam and froze them solid and took off. With all that happening, they called off the performance. "Whoa, those two are wild," Meowth exclaimed. Outside of the venue. "Too bad it ended early," Applejack said. "But we did see Aria's performance," Serena pointed. "I thought teamwork between them and the Pokémon was great," Rarity added. "They were great," Sunny Flare said. "I'm so glad we saw her. We got some great ideas for our own Pokémon Showcase performance." "You mean you're really going to be a part of it? But don't you need a partner?" Serena asked her then Sunny Flare nodded. "I will find one, but I've got a lot of work to do. Gotta go, I'll be in touch soon." "Thank you for inviting us," Rarity said as Sunny Flare left. Then the gang saw Chespin twirling a twig like Braixen was. "Are imitating Braxien too?" Pinkie asked. Chespin threw the twig into the air, but it hit on the head instead of balancing then the gang laughed then got hit on the back by another stick. They all saw the Pancham and the Froslass did the same thing at the show, but flawless. Then Pancham did a raspberry at Chespin and then two left. "Ches!" Chespin chased after him. "Chespin, wais!" Clemont shouted. "Where you going?!" Bonnie asked then the group followed. Their pursuit took them into the woods nearby till found the road split. "Okay, Rarity and I will for Chespin this way," Serena said as the two head the right path and Ash, Twilight, Sunset, and Rainbow headed left with Clermont and the others taking another path. ... ... "Did you find Chespin?" Rarity asked. "I got nothing. You?" Serena replied. "Same." Then both of them heard a nearby bush rustle. "Chespin is that you?" Serena asked but it turned out to be Fennekin and Chimchar. "Did you two find him?" Rarity asked then both shake their heads both of them ran off. "Wait where are you guys going?" Serena asked as they followed. The two fire types eventually stopped and looked around the side of a tree. Looking as well, Serena saw Pancham wearing Ash's hat and Clemont's glasses as Froslass was wearing Applejack's hat. They were dancing with style and grace. "What are they up to?" Rarity asked then Serena remembered their little performance at the showcase and it clicked. They continue to perform as the four stepped out. "Pancham!" "Froslass!" Both of them called out. Pancham and Froslass panicked and ran toward an outcropping of rocks. "We just want to talk!" They both stopped and stood away from the entrance looking insolently away as Serena and Rarity saw all the items inside. "Have you two been gathering all these items for your performances?" Serena asked them then neither of them responded. "You shouldn't steal other things that don't belong to you." Serena walked up to it and Ash and Applejack's hats and Clemont's glasses. "But if you stop we'll give you these," Serena handed Pancham a pair of sunglasses and Rarity gave Froslass a diamond chain. They both snatched them immediately and put them on. They tried to reach out but the Pokémon ran away dropping the items. "Wait, we're not done talking to you!" Serena shouted as they ran after them. Meanwhile... "What happened to you guys?" Zane asked as he and Hilda caught up with Ash and the others seeing Clemont without glasses and both Ash and Applejack without their respective hats. "Pancham stole Ash's hat and Clemont's glasses. And Froslass stole Applejack's hat," Pinkie explained. "Pancham's been busy," Hilda commented. "I need to get my glasses or I'll keep talking to trees and rock for the life," Clemont complained. "Just relax we'll get it back," Rainbow said to him. ... ... Much later the group found both of them lying on the ground. "There it is. Those two are taking a nap without any care in the world," Twilight said. "Esp." Then Chespin approached the sleeping duo and woke them up. Both of them woke up and realized what was happening. "You're getting away now!" Rainbow threatened. "Give me back my hat!" Applejack and Ash demanded. "And give me glasses right!" Clemont added. Pancham and Froslass prepared to fight their way out of it then... "Hold on a second!" Everyone stopped when Rarity and Serena run up. "Stand aside those two are ours!" Everyone looked surprised by what Serena but neither she nor Rarity was unfazed. "You heard me! We want to catch them," Serena repeated. "Why?" Pinkie asked. "When we found Pancham and Froslass near their cave, I discovered that they like to perform," Serena explained as she handed the items to their owners. "Frolass and Pancham like to perform?" Ash asked. "So you want to catch them so you can perform?" Jaden realized. "Yes, I want to be a performer like Aria, and me and Rarity want to join Pancham and Froslass," Serena said. "I know what my dream is!" "Awesome, you found your own dream!" Ash said. "It's a wonderful idea," Jaden said. "Yay, I'm all for it!" Bonnie added. "Chespin!" "Pancham? Froslass?" Serena asked them. "Rarity and I want to catch both of you." "So, up for a battle?" Rarity asked. Both of them smiled and urged them to bring it. The four Pokémon stood across from each other as Rarity and Serena prepared to battle. "You can do it!" Pinkie cheered them on. "Now Fennekin, use Scratch!" "Chimchar, Flame Wheel!" Both Pokémon prepared to strike them then out now an electric net caught Fennekin. "Fennekin!" Serena shouted as the net flew up to Team Rocket's balloon. "Prepare for trouble, you said Fennekin's name," "Now it's our turn to play the name game," "To protect the world from devastation," "To untie all people within our nation," "To denounce the evils of truth and love," "To extend to the stars above," "Jessie." "James." "Adagio." "Aria." "Sonata." "Duke." "And Clyde." Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!" "Surrender now or prepare for a well-performed fight!" "Meowth that's right!" "Team Rocket, give Fenneking back!" Twilight shouted at them. "So, you want to be a performer like Aria?" Jessie asked. "You got a problem with?" Serena asked. "Well, Jessie has a problem and frankly I don't care," Aria Blaze said. "Yeah. Beware," Duke warned her. "In order to be a successful Pokémon Performer one has to be beautiful. Dressed in a beautiful my beautiful self will bask in the spotlight with a beautiful Braxien. It's beauty time three!" Jessie said. "I thought you said beautiful. so that doesn't count you out?" Hilda asked with a smug look. "Sick burn!" Rainbow and most of the Pokémon burst into laughter. "How dare you insult your future queen!" Jessie shouted. "Give Feneekin back!" Serena demanded once she stopped laughing. "No way. Fennekin is where it should be. but take heart, I'll make sure it evolves into Braixen. Tooodaloo!" "We beat you!" Meowth chimed as they left. "You can't take Fennekin! Stop!" Serena shouted. "They won't get far, Lucario. come out and use Aura Sphere!" Sunset called her Lucario out. Lucario fired Aura Sphere at the balloon which caused it to pop. "What!? Already!?" Team Rocket screamed as their balloon crashed. "Nice job," Sunset said as they ran to the crash site. Froalass quickly use Ice Shard and Pancham used Stone Edge which Team Rocket ran out of its way. "Why are Froslass and Pancham on their side?" Cylde asked. "Stay out of our business!" Duke shouted. "You lot interrupted our battle with the young ladies so it's our business! Pancham shouted. "It said we interfere with their battle," Meowth told Team Rocket. "Whoa, it's that true?" Rarity asked it. "How dare you?" Adagio snapped. "Foul play is our specialty," James said then Team Rocket called their Pokémon. "Psybeam, go!" Inkay fired Psybeam at Pancham which he dodged it effortlessly. "Air Slash!" "Shadow Ball!" Staraptor and Pumpkaboo fired their attack at Froslass which she dodged by countering with Ice Beam then Pancham hit them with Dark Pulse. "Those are amazing," Bonnie exclaimed. "Pikachu. let's get Fennekin back!" Ash said as Pikachu and Deadnne hopped off and ran to Fennekin. Meanwhile. Pancham fire Dark Pluse at Inkay. "Let's help out too! Chespin, Pin Missile!' "Lunatone, Ice Beam!" Lunatone's Ice Beam hit Staraptor while Chespin Pin Missile hit Pumpkaboo. Pikachu, Dedanne, and Froslass free Fennekin out of the next then Clyde, Maganemite, and Excradrill appeared. "This is getting boring, Use Thunder!" "No, you don't! Serena shouted as she tackled Maganmite. "Serena!" Fluttershy shouted. "I'm fine, save Fennekin," Serena told the Pokémon. "How dare you treat my Magenmite like a beach ball!" Clyde shouted. "You want to get rough I'll show you rough! Metal Claw!" "Emboar. Rock Smash!" Hilda shouted. Emboar smashed Excradrill with Rock Smash knocking it out. "That's two moves too many. Time for a twerp payback," Jessie said. "Lunatone. Power Gem!" Lunatone fired Power Gem into Inkay and Pumpkboo, then into Staraptor and Simmisear, then Meowth and the others. "Use Thunderbolt!" Rainbow and Ash said. Pikachu and Jolteon fire Thunderbolt at Team Rocket and sent them flying. "I can win without Braxien, anyway?" Jessie asked. "Whatever you think you think you're an actress," Clyde said. "Just fool'em!" Meowth said. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" Team Rocket disappeared out of sight! "We did it!" Bonnie and Pinkie cheered. ' "Fennekin, thank goodness you're alright," Serena said before turning to Froslass and Pancham. "Thanks. Pancham and Froslass, you really helped Fennekin a lot. So now what do you two say to get back to our batt;e?" They nodded and four Pokémon got ready to battle again. "Okay, Fennkin? Chirchar? Rarity? You guys ready?" Serena asked. "Ready," Rarity answered with Pokémon nodded. Pancham and Froslass jumped in the air and fired Dark Pulse and Ice Beam!" "Dodge it!" Fennekin and Chimchar jumped in the air. "Flamethrower!" "Flame Wheel!" Chimchar's Flame Wheel's struck Froslass hard as Panchame dodged Flamethrower and prepare to Arm Thrust. "Dodge it! Then use Hidden Power!" Fennekin jumped into the air again to dodge the Arm Thrust and then Fired Hidden Power which did serious damage. Both girls threw a Poké Ball but they broke free. "Don't give up, just keep battling hard!" Rainbow encouraged. "You can do it!" Bonnie cheered. "Flamethrower!" "Inferno!" Both fire types made contact and sent them back. "Hidden Power!" "Flame Wheel!" Both Pokémon were hit again and Rarity could see they were starting to weaken. "Now our chance!" Rarity shouted. "I wanna perform. Please come join us," Serena said as she and Rartiy threw the Poké Balls. Pancham and Froslass went inside, and with three shakes and a click it was decided. "Tada! We've begun a new phase in our journey!" Serena shouted as the girls hive-five each other. "Yeah, you did it!" Ash congratulated. "First time you caught a Pokémon," Zane said to Serena. "Yay!" Pinkie cheered. "Thanks," Serena said then turned to Rarity. "Rarity, we're going to do our best to become a Pokémon Performer like Aria and Cavalier and someday we'll be the best duo," Serena declared. "I am with you every step of the way!" Rarity told her as they let out their Pancham, Froslass. Whimsicott Serena gave Pancham the sunglass while Rarity gave Froslass a diamond chain. "Fennekin, Chimchar, Pancham, Froslass, and Whimsicott will you help us make our dream a reality?" Serena asked all five Pokémon to shake their heads. "It's good that they have their own goal. Now they have to make it to the end," Jaden said. "They make it one day," Applejack replied. Serena caught her first Pokémon in Pancham while Rarity caught Froslass And decide to become Pokémon Performers Now each of them has their own goal our heroes journey continues

Reflecting each other's thoughts and feelings! When people smile, Pokémon smile, and when Pokémon cry, you'll find that people cry as well. And our a certain young man, and his two lifelong friends is about to arrive. Seeking new dreams and new adventures! Their names are Ash Ketchum, Twilight Sparkle, and Jaden Joynes. And their friends, Pikachu, Espeon, and Sneasel. "Here we are guys the place I grew up," Jaden said as Ash and Pikachu looked the window. "The Kalos Region." "Ash," An older woman named Alexa said. "You and Pikachu must be excited!" "You have no idea," Twilight said while sighing. "He and Pikachu are like this 24/7." "Can't you blame us?" Ash said. "We're starting a brand new adventure! Nothing is exciting to a Pokémon Trainer!" "Pikachu!" The Electric Pokémon agreed. "Your right about that," Jaden started to laugh a bit. The plane landed and Ash walked out of the plane with Pikachu climbing his shoulder. "Hey Kalos Region," Ash shouted. "Ash from Pallet Town is finally here!" "Pikachu!" It screamed happily. "What's with the screaming?" Jaden asked. "Saying hi to Kalos Region," Ash explained. "And as soon as I walk down these steps, we'll finally be here!" "Pika!" Then two Spritzee appeared flying happily. "Wow," Ash shrieked. "Never seen those Pokémon before!" Then he fell down the stairs. Which caused the others to run down to see if he was okay. "Are you alright," Both Twilight and Alexa said in concern. "Pika Pi!" his pal wondered the same thing. "Yeah," Ash groaned. "I'm okay. Who those are Pokémon?" "Those two are Spritzee!" Jaden said. "They're quite common around here." "Awesome!" Ash said as he got up. Unknown to Ash and the others, the evil organization from Kanto, Team Rocket, Jessie, James, Meowth, Adagio Dazzle, Aria Blaze, Duke, Sonata Dusk, and Clyde were here as well. "Typical," Adagio Dazzle said. "Twerp-like entrance." "And with Pikachu, too!" Jessie says then she and Adagio Pokémon, Wobbuffet and Houndour came out of their Pokeballs. "Then it's all in place," Duke added. "Let's get to work," Clyde said then Team Rocket left. "Wobbuffet! Houndour!" Both agreed. Back to Ash and the others... "First thing I wanna do is a have gym battle!" Ash said. "Just a minute!" Alexa stopped him. "So where do you plan to go for a gym battle?" "Oh, that easy," Ash explained. "Your younger sister's a gym leader, right? At her gym." "I'm sorry to disappoint you, but," Alexa said. "Her gym isn't here in Lumiose City. It's located in Santalune City." "What do I do now?" Both Ash and Pikachu sighed. "Hold on, I'll go and give her a call right away," Alexa said. "I'll see you in the lobby." "Wait up," Jaden said. "I'm coming too." Jaden and Sneasel caught up with Alexa, leaving the Kanto girl and the Sinnoh girl alone with each other's company. "You know," He turns to Twilight. "I wanna see any other Pokémon around." Ash and Twilight saw a Pokémon's shadow then turn around look up to see Pokémon up top. The Pokémon jumped from the building landed his foot on the ground and jump up at high altitude. "Hey Pikachu, Twilight did you see that?" Ash asked. "Yeah!" Twilight responded and Pikachu nodded. "Oh yeah!" Ash screamed happily. In the lobby, Jaden was waiting while Sneasel and Heilopilte were playing around than the three saw Ash and Twilight. "Hey guys," Jaden greeted. "What's new?" "Jaden, we just saw the coolest thing ever!" Ash said happily as he and Twilight stopped. "Where did Alexa go?" "She's at the phone station," Jaden said. Then the three went to her. "Alexa!" Ash shouted. "What's with all the excitement?" She asked. "We just saw an amazing Pokémon!" Ash explained. "It's was so amazing!" Twilight agreed. "I see," Alexa said. "I guarantee you're going to meet lots of Pokémon." "So cool," Ash smiled. "I'm just glad we're finally in this Kalos Region. I can't wait for that gym battle." "Uh," Alexa stammered a bit. "You see, I managed to get through to that sister of mine... and she let me know she's away from her gym right now." "She's away?" Ash shrieked. "So when is she going to be back?" "Once my sister goes on a trip." Alexa added, "She's usually away quite a while." "Oh, man," Twilight gave it some thought. "Wait a sec," Jaden gasped. "Why don't to go to the gym in Lumoise City?" "So, there a gym in this city?" Ash asked him. "Yeah," Jaden answered while looking at his map. "At the very center, located at the Prism Tower." "We'll just have our first battle here in Lumoise City," Ash said happily. "Are you gonna be all right?" Alexa asked. "Yeah, we'll be just fine," Ash replied. "Catch you later." With that, Ash, Twilight, and Jaden say goodbyes and made their way to Prism Tower. Moments Later... "Here we are guys," Jaden said as they made it. "Prism Tower." "Great let's get this show on the road," Ash said as they made it inside without realizing that three people came by. Inside the gym, "Oh boy, oh boy," Ash was excited. "I'm psyched." "Is there anybody here?" Twilight wondered then a screen lit up. Welcome to the Lumiose Gym. "My name is Ash," Says his name. "I've come from Pallet Town in the Kanto region. I wanna have gym battle please." "Pika," Pikachu agreed with him. How many badges do you have? "Badges?" Ash asked. "This is the first gym I'm challenging here, so I don't have any." You have none!? Not a single badge!? To challenge the Lumiose Gym, you must have at least four badges. Then two electric rods appeared. "PIka!" "Snes!" "Esp!" "Hey give me a break, wait minute," Ash said while being concerned for the rods. Please leave at once. Without warning Ash, Twilight, Jaden, and the Pokémon got shocked then fell through the door and the group of the three saw them falling. "Oh, no," "No!" "My goodness," "I'm going to try to catch them," "I'll get Pikachu," "I got others," The pale yellow girl threw out a Pokeball showing a Lunatone. "Use, Psychic!" The boy threw his backpack and popped out a massive airbag which Ash, Twilight, and Jaden landed while the little girl catch the Pikachu and fell on the airbag, and Lunatone used its Psychic Power to slowed the Sneasal and Espeon. "Are you all right?" The boy asked them. "Yeah, I'm okay," Ash replied. "Thanks," Twilight added then the little girl got up. "Take a look at this, Clemont and Fluttershy," The little girl joyfully said while holding Pikachu. "A Pikachu and what a cutie." The little one hugged Pikachu making him uncomfortable which made him do an electric attack shocking all of them. "Bonnie, no!" Clemont said in concern. "Are you okay?" "Of course," Bonnie said getting up. "I'm sorry about my sister," Clemomt said while apologizing. "Don't worry about it," Jaden reassured him. "Bonnie you apologize too," Clemont glared at his sister. "I just wanted to give Pikachu a hug because it was so cute," Bonnie pouted. "But did Pikachu like it," Clemont asked her. "All right, I'm sorry, Pikachu," Bonnie apologized. "Everything's okay now," Ash reassured her. "Pikachu was just a little surprised." "Pika, Pika," Pikachu said happily. "But I still have thanked you yet, I appreciate that you saved Pikachu." "Pika Pika," "You're very welcome," Bonnie said cheerfully. "Yeah," Jaden chimed. "That is one of the weirdest gyms I saw, sorry if I forget that you need four gym badges, Ash." "You got kicked out, right?" Fluttershy asked. "Right," Twilight came in. "And after coming from all this way. Some gym leader he turns out to be." "The gym leader is really strong," Fluttershy explained. "So they asked you how many badges you have, right?" "That's right," Ash replied. "But when I told him I didn't have. All three of us got zapped bad!" "You don't have any badges!?" Bonnie shrieked. "To be honest, we just arrived in the Kalos region. This first gym I've been to." "Pardon me, but where are you guys from?" Clemont asked. "I'm from Pallet Town in Kanto," Ash said. "Twinleaf Town in Sinnoh," Twilight said. "I live here in Fluerr City," Jaden said. Pokémon Brain Teaser #1 This Pokémon emits a fragrance that causes foes to fall under its spell. Answer: Spritzee "And now it's time for us to introduce ourselves," Clemont started. "My name's Clemont and this is my little sister Bonnie and this our friend Fluttershy." "Nice to meet you," Fluttershy said. "Nice to meet all of you," Ash said. "Clemont, Bonnie, Fluttershy." "You and your Pikachu look like such good friends," Fluttershy mentioned. "If you weren't Pikachu wouldn't be sitting on your shoulder like that," Bonnie mentioned. "Well, we've known each other for a long time." "Pikachu!" "Pikachu was the very first pokemon I ever got!" "Pika Pika!" "So how, met Twilight, Jaden," Fluttershy asked. "I met Ash during Hearthome City Tag Battle," Twilight said. "He and battle in the second round of the Junior Cup when I went to Unova," Jaden said. "So what are you three up to?" "Will be doing something family-friendly in the future," Bonnie answered. "A family adventure sounds great," Ash came in. "After all, I don't have any brothers or sisters..." "I do have a brother," Twilight mentioned. "Who's married to my former babysitter." "But you got Pikachu, who's your special friend," Bonnie brought up. "Bonnie's a bit too young to understand Pokémon," Clemont said. "So she's impressed when meets someone who does." "I know just what it's like." Ash agreed. "I could hardly wait to grow up and become a Trainer." "Believe me," Twilight added. "I've been there." "Same here," Jaden came along. "You guys totally understand how I feel!" Bonnie said. "So what kind of Pokémon do you and Fluttershy have?" Jaden asked. "Okay, here's a Pokémon that I caught recently," Clemont showing a Pokeball. "Here's mine," Fluttershy brings out three Pokémon, a Pangoro, a Bellossom, and Lunatone. "How about you guys? " Jaden brings out his Lilligant, Marshtomp, Magmar, and Golurk. And Twilight brings out Espeon, Flygon, and Corsola. "What assortment," Fluttershy gasped. "If it's problem Clemont. can I see it and then let's battle!" Pikachu jumped off of Ash's shoulder and headed to the battlefield. "Battle for real?" Clemont asked. "Yeah," Ash explained. "If I can't have a Gym battle. I'd like to have my first battle in the Kalos Region with you. What do you say Clemont?" "Let's do it," Bonnie agreed. "It'll be a great test of strength!" "Okay," Clemont agreed. "You're on!" Moments later both Ash and Clemont were on opposite sides of the battle with Bonnie acting Referee and Jaden, Fluttershy, and Twilight were watching. "All right, Bunnelby, come on out, and let's have a battle." Clemont throws his Pokeball revealing Bunnebly. "Bunnebly!" "Awesome," Ash was starstrucked. "Never seen that Pokémon before! Pikachu let's give it our all!' "Lots of luck to both teams!" Bonnie shouted starting the battle. Ash vs Clemont 1v1 "Now Bunnelby," Clemont requested. "This will be our first battle! Just relax and you do great." "Kay, Pikachu use Thunderbolt!" "Use your ears to stir up the sand." "Pikachu unleashed a massive Thunderbolt while Bunnnebly used its ears to make a dust cloud that caught the Thunderbolt surprising Ash and Pikachu, even Twilight. "How that even possible," Twilight asked. "Yes," Clemony started to explain. "Bunnelby is a Normal Type but more than capable to handle Electric-type moves." "Rule of thumb, Normal-Types are very strong," Jaden mentioned. "Now it's our turn, Bunnelby, Dig," Bunnelby went underground. "Take off don't let them know where you are," Pikachu started to run. "Trying to use speed to confuse us, well it won't work, now go!" Bunnebly popped out the ground and land a successful hit on Pikachu. "Doesn't Ash remember that Ground-Type moves are super effective against Electric Type Pokémon?" Twilight wondered. "Pikachu are you okay?" "Pika Pika," "Yeah that's the spirit, use Quick Attack." Pikachu charged at the Normal Type with serious speed giving massive impact. But Bunnebly recovered from the blow. "Now, Double Slap." Bunnbely used its ears and gave Pikachu major damage." "Look, at Bunnebly's ears," Ash mentioned. "They're just like hands!" "Pretty neat, huh? Bunnebly ears can-do sort of things," "You still fine aren't you buddy?" "Pika Pika," "That's the spirit, now use Iron Tail." Pikachu was airborne and its tail glowed in pure white. "Look at that Pikachu can do a Steel-Type move," Bonnie gasped. "Use your ears and catch it. Bunnebly braced for impact and caught the Iron Tail. "Yeah, it's was good that you caught it. It's too bad you can't use your ears!" Clemont, Bonnie, Fluttershy, and their Pokémon gasped to realized that Bunnebly can't move. "Your strong alright, but you can't move anymore. Electro Ball!" Pikachu's tail charged it with a ball of electricity and since it was close-ranged it caused Bunnebly serious damage. "Impressive, using Iron Tail only for Bunnebly to catch it but left it open to the Electro Ball," Twilight said. "Amazing." "Whoa," Fluttershy gasped. "Ash and Pikachu are pretty strong." "By battling him, I understand him even better. ". Clemont thoughted to himself. "Use Quick Attack," "Heads up," Pikachu came charging in at Bunnebly, then out of nowhere some sort of a Net came out at Pikachu who stop to avoid it which made everyone gasp. "Are you okay, Pikachu?" Ash asked his partner. "Pika," Pikachu responded that he was okay. "All right why would you do such a thing?" Ash exclaimed angrily looking at some not-so-friendly faces. "That was dangerous," Clemont shouted. "Who are you?" both Bonnie and Fluttershy asked. "Prepare for trouble, our middle name," "And make it double, it's a high stakes game." "To protect, the world from devastation!" "To unite all people within our nation!" "To denounce the evils of truths and love!" "To extend our reach to the skies above," "Jessie" "James" "Adagio" "Aria" "Sonata" "Duke" "and Clyde" "Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!" "Surrender now or get ready to fight," "Meowth that's right!" "Wobbuffet," "Murkow!" "Houndour!" "Team Rocket," Twilight growled. "Should have known you have the nerves to follow us." "Wait you know them?" Bonnie asked her. "I've never seen talking Meowth before, that's incredible," Clemont said as he walked to them but stopped by Jaden. "Wait, those are a group of bad guys that always take other people's Pokémon and steal stuff that isn't there's," Jaden told them. "Excuse me twerp," Adagio spoke up. "But you're selling us short." "Catching Pikachu is but one of numerous yet glorious goals," Jessie added. "The rest of them the confiscation of all the strong and rare Pokémon in Kalos," Aria came in. "Forming a formidable Pokémon army is inevitable!" James chimed. "But catching Pikachu is job one!" Duke pointed out. "There's a better way for us to begin our Kalos kingdom!" Clyde mentioned. "And we'll take the one with the ears!" Sonata said looking at Bunnebly. "Like that going to happen," Ash said. "And goes double for me," Jaden came in. "I will not sit idly by and let you steal other's People's Pokémon!" Clemont added. "That's right," Twilight and Bonnie agreed. "And who do think you are, being mean to Pokémon," said Fluttershy. "Team Rocket, that's who!" All of them said proudly. "All right Pikachu, Use Thunderbolt!" Ash screamed. Pikachu launched a massive charge at them. "Wobbuffet, time to shine!" Jessie called out her Pokémon. The Patient Pokémon jumped in and used Mirror Coat absorbed the attack and send it back to Pikachu suffering serious damage but Ash did a diving catch and caught him. "Nice one," Aria praised. "I give it an 11!" "Wobbuffet!" "We better retreat!" Clemont suggested. "Using Mirror Coat reflect Special Attack with double the power! We can't withstand that kind of strength..." "We've always stood up them before," Ash reassured him. "And we always will! As long if Pikachu is okay, long as Pikachu doesn't give up, I'll be here batting to the end." "All you'll end up with are reruns," Jessie said with a smirk. "Now Pikachu, Electro Ball," Pikachu blasted an orb of pure electricity." "Time for us to lend a hand," Jaden said. "Marshtomp, Use Water Gun!" "Flygon, Hyper beam!" "Bunnerbly Mud Shot!" The three Pokemon fired their attacks at them. "You're on! Woobuffet," Jessie declared. Woobbuffet jumped up and dodged the attacks and absorbed the Electro Ball sending them the attack back. "No way," Fluttershy gasped. Just as about as the Electro Ball was to made contact a Pokémon took the attack instead which everyone was surprised. "What's that?" Jessie asked. "A Pokémon?" Aria asked also. The Pokémon winced due to the damage from the Electro Ball then glared at Team Rocket. "No way it's a Froakie," Clemont exclaimed while he and others ran to Ash, "Froakie?" Ash asked. "It's water-type that available for first-time Pokémon Trainers in Kalos. " Jaden explained. "So that Electro Ball must have done lots of damage." "Are you okay?" Twilight asked the Bubble Frog Pokemon. "So where is its trainer." Then Froakie approached them. "Where Froakie's going," Bonnie asked. "Froakie, Fro." "What's with all the yapping?" Adagio asked. "I think that Froakie wants to help us," Fluttershy said. "Froak!" "Uh, Froakie saying bad guys rub it the wrong way!" Meowth said in concern. "You can't take them on," Ash said in concern. "You've been hurt, stop!" But Froakie didn't listen and threw a sticky-like substance at them. "It used it Frubbles!" Jaden screamed. "Big whoop," Jessie motioned Wobbuffet to use Mirror Coat. "We send them right back!" Wobbuffet used Mirror Coat but it failed and Team was covered in the Frubbles. "What is this stuff?" Duke asked. "I can't get this gunk off!" Both Meowth and Adagio shouted. "How come it didn't bounce back?" Twilight asked. "Of course," Clemont realzied. "Froakie's gummy Frubbles is not a move, so Wobbuffet's Mirror Coat was completely ineffective." "Nice job, Froakie," Jaden said. "Let us take from here." "We'll lend a hand, too!" Clemont joined in. "Don't forget about us," Bonnie said as she, Twilight, and Fluttershy run from behind. "Now Bunnebly, use dig," Clemont orderd. Bunneebly went underground. "Uh, oh!" Sonata said in a worried tone. Due to the Digging Pokemon using Dig the ground crumble and Team Rocket was in the air. "Nice job, Bunnebly," Clemont thanked him. "Let's wrap this up," Ash said. "Right," Twilight, Jaden, and Fluttershy agreed. "Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" "Flygon, time Dragon Pulse!" "Marshtomp, Ice Beam!" "Pangoro, Rock Tomb!" Froakie joined in and used Water Pulse and all five of the five attacks came directly at Team Rocket. "We blasting off again!" All of them screamed as they disappeared out of sight. "Wow," Bonnie was amazed. "Awesome Power." The Pokemon jumped for joy but Froakie collapsed and fell to the ground. "Froakie!" Ash said in concern. "Something's wrong!" "Froa..." Froakie weakly said. "Froakie needs help right away," Fluttershy said. "Is there a Pokemon Center?" Twilight asked. "I think it is a lot quicker if we brought Froakie to the professor's lab instead," Bonnie brought up. "The professor?" Ash asked. "Yeah," Jaden said. "Professor Sycamore's Research Lab. There's no doubt he'll know to help Froakie!" Clemont, Twilight, Jaden, and Fluttershy return all of their Pokemon in their Pokeballs. "Come on, Ash!" Bonnie motioned him. "This way!" "I'm coming Bonnie," Ash followed her with Froakie in his arms. "Don't worry, you're going to feel better real soon!" A new region, new Pokemon, new friends!

Chapter 9-Mega Meowth Madness! The Ever-Hungry Chespin and the Eccertic Pinkie PieView OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 9-Mega Meowth Madness! The Ever-Hungry Chespin and the Eccertic Pinkie PieOutside of Lumiose City, we see once again Team Rocket doing what they do best finding way to capture Pikachu and Pokémon but they're looking at something. "Huh? What's that?" Adagio asked look at the screen seeing a Pokémon using Flare Blitz. "Amazing, it appears to be Blaziken's Mega Evolution," James said. "Mega Evolution? It look mega super strong!" Aria exclaimed. "To refresh our collective minds, our plan is to make Meowth Mega Evolve and then catch Pikachu." "Woobuffet!" "Yeah, but is that even possible?" Meowth asked. "I agree," Sonata and Duke chimed as well. "But luckily, I've discovered that Professor Sycamore is the leading expert," Clyde said. "So, all we do is we steal his data and program said data into our database." "Dig, now I understand why brought that monstrosity with us," Meowth asked seeing something cloaked over. "Mega Evolution makes the Mega Meowth. Mega Meowth makes the Mega Team Rocket. Mega Team Rocket makes the Mega work it's own!" James ranted. "Come again?" Sonata asked. "No need! It's Mega-mania!" As Team Rocket plans their evil scheme, our heroes made a quick stop to see the Professor. "So you're all traveling together now. eh?" Sycamore asked. "Sounds like a great plan." "Thanks," Ash replied. "Pika!" "Professor, here," Serena showed him a basket. "I baked delicious macarons for everyone." "Did someone said macarons!? I love them!" said a voice who appeared out of nowhere making everyone jumped back at the sight of a girl with frizzy hair popping out from one of the lockers. As she spoke in a really fast and excited voice. The pink girl gasped loud and long before shaking everyone's hand. " Hi! I'm Pinkie Pie, party planer master!" "Nice to meet you!" Zane said feeling a little freaked out. "Apart from that," Rarity refocused the conservation. "I say let have some tea with it." "I still have a lot of work to do so I'll have mine a bit later," Sycamore said. "Will let us see what your working on?" Twilight asked. "Of course," Sycamore replied. "Make yourself at home." Very Much Later "Everyone, tea is ready," Starlight asked. "Okay, everybody let's dig in!" Serena said. "What happen to the macarons?" Twilight asked as they disappeared. "They were just a moment ago," Serena stated. Pinkie's Pokéball pooped a Sandile who then used used Rock Blast on a Pokémon who had the sandwich cookies. "Chespin!" Starlight exclaimed. "Not this again, sneaking outside so you can eat!" "So that's Chespin?" Twilight asked. "Yep," Starlight repiled. "Like, Froakie and Fennekin, Chespin is Grass-Type Pokémon for new trainers," Zane explains. "So it's a Grass Type," Twilight pulled her Pokédex. Chespin, The Spiny Nut Pokemon. Chespin can flex the soft spikes on its head making so stiff and sharp they can even pierce through stone. "Pierce through stone!?" Twilight exclaimed. "Pika!" "Che!" "It's so cute," Bonnie said. "If wanted some you could have just said so," Clemont approached it. "Why do you share?" Chespin poke Clemont's hand then left with literally a mouthful of macrons. "Sorry about that," Starlight apologized. "That one is bit of a prankster." "I got an idea," Serena said. "Sunset, Bonnie, Rarity let's go see what the professor up to!" "Yeah! Let's go!" Bonnie agree. Just outside, Team Rocket's van pulled up. "Target confirmed." James said looking at the professor. "Adagio, Aria are you in position?" "We're ready!" Adagio said. "How's everyone doing today?" Sycamore asked the Pokémon. "Okay Mewoth," Aria said as she grabbed Croagunk's Pokéball and Adagio's armed Staraptor's Pokéball. "Are you ready to go through with this?" "I ready to rock," Mewoth repiled. "Then let's," James back the truck into the greenhouse. Making everyone jumped up. "Well, if isn't the good professor," Aria said. "What are you doing here?" The Professor asked. "See, Team Rocket needs to borrow you for a bit if you don't mind," Meowth said. "Your that talking Meowth!" "And your toast!" Adagio said. "Use Steel Wing! "Brick Break!" Aria shouted. Both Croagunk and Staraptor attacks hit the professor allowing Duke to tie him up. "What is this all about? You keep your hands off the Pokémon!" "Please, your the one we got!" Duke said. "In you go!" Aria and Mewoth said. "James, we got the doc, let's move it!" As Meowth, Aria. Adagio, and Duke got in the truck, Sunset. Rarity, Serena and Bonnie saw them and follow them. "What was that!?" Clemont asked, surprised. Twilight, Jaden and Rainbow got up as they ran the greenhouse. "I'm going to a take a look!" Twilight called. "Us too!" Rainbow and Jaden pitch in! As, they ran to the greenhouse , they saw truck with R shape sign leaving. "It's Team Rocket!" Jaden said. Just then Jaden's Lilligant came out tugged his hand as she pointed to at the back! "What is it?" Jaden asked Lilligant then gasped. "Serena!? Bonnie!? Sunset!? Rarity!? We got to after them!" "Good idea," Twilight said. "Flygon, come on out!" "Swellow, you too!" Rainbow said. Both Swellow and Flygon appeered. "We need you guys to follow that truck!" As Twilight and Rainbow got on Flygon's back. "Swellow, let the others know what happen." "Swell!" Flygon flew after them. Chespin saw the truck and ran after them but tripped. "Chespin!" Ash called running to it! "Where is everyone?" Applejack asked. "Swell!" Swellow appeared along with Jaden, "Jaden!" Fluttershy said. "What happened?" "Team Rocket happened!" Jaden explained. "They grab the professor, Serena and the others tried to save him but the back of the truck shut itself, Twilight and Rainbow have gone after it!" "Them varmints again" Applejack groaned. "Don't they every learned." "They never do," Jaden stated. Later... Both Twilight and Rainbow managed to follow Team Rocket an abandoned building. "Thank you, now get some rest," Twilight called back her Flygon. "Back so soon," Clyde saw them along with the others. "I assuming you got the professor." "No muss, no fuss!" James sneered as Rainbow and Twilight sneak up from behind. Adagio and Duke open the doors only see the Professor, Serena, Bonnie, Rarity and Sunset in the back. "How did they get in here!?" Adagio snapped. "This isn't your truck!" Duke scowled. Then Serena and Bonnie mock Team's Rocket motto but Aria was very ticked off. "Twerp thieves!" Aria threw out Simisear's Pokéball. "Use, Fire Punch!" Simisear knocked the girls out cold with a fiery fist allowing Jessie and James to tie them up quickly. "Well they are right about one thing," Twilight said. "What's that?" Rainbow asked. "This a pain..." Twilight grumbled. Once the girls came out, Meowth joined the others. "Look pal, all we want is your Mega Evolution secret! Spill the beans and we'll let you guys go!" Meowth said. "And if we were to say no," Sunset asked. "What to be a dope and say no..." Meowth and the others grinned as pulled out a piece of glass and to started to scratch it making a terrible noise. "So start quacking!" The terrible reached everyone's ears as Rainbow and Twilight covered their ears. "We got no choice," Rainbow said as she got Jolteon's Pokéball. "Come out, and use Thunderbolt!" Jolteon prepared to Thunderbolt just as the Professor gave up. "Stop! Alright, you win!" The screeching came to a stop. "The data is in my pocket!" "In here-Owie!" Sonata started then got shocked by the Thunderbolt. "What was that!?" Duke exclaimed. "Could that be Pikachu?" "Nope!" Sonata said. "That pack quite a punch, but normally it's hit me right here." She pointed to her lower back!" "If it's not the Twerp's Pikachu!" Aria thought about it. "It must be Rainbow-hair Twerpette or Bashful one!" "Aria's right," James agreed. "They might be planning a sneak attack so keep your eyes peeled!" "Roger!" Jessie agreed as Sonata continued to dig through the coat pocket and found something. "Oh goody, I found a memory card!" Sonata giggled. Moments Later, Team Rocket took their captives into the building, and Ash and the others arrived. "What the heck took you guys so long?" Rainbow snapped. "Sorry, for the holdup," Ash whispered. "Is this where Team Rocket hiding out." "Look like it," Applejack said looking through what they were up to. Inside... "What are you doing!?" Bonnie snapped at them. "Cork with the whining until our mission is complete!" Adagio scolded her. Unknown to the gang, Chespin grinned as it saw the macron basket. "What do you think they're doing now?" Bonnie asked the Professor. "They're probably going to use the data, for no good," He guessed. "Then would let those ruffians take the memory card?' Rarity asked. "I preferred not to but keeping you come first!" Sycamore answered. "And in." Clyde chuckled as he inserted the memory card. "After all that, do you think this will work?" Aria asked. "Of course! We simply the Mega Evolve data in the weapons program and then we'll be ready to go! Downloading!" "This gig is pumping me up big time!" Meowth smirked. "We've got to get them all out of there!" Ash exclaimed. "Pika!" "Wait! We can rush in there!" Clemont said. "We need a plan!" Meanwhile, Chespin climbs up to the macaron box only to crash into empty cans. "It's Chespin!" The girls and the Professor called out. Chespin chuckled as Jaden. Twilight and Rainbow facepalmed. "So much for a subtle approached," Applejack groaned. "Now that I think of it, rushing them out of there is a good idea!" Clemont agreed. "Right!" Applejack said. "We're going get you out of here!" Zane yelled. Pokemon Brain Teaser #9 The Pokémon spines can pierce through stone! Answer: Chespin "Well well!" Adagio sneered. "Why go chasing after you when you're chasing us!" "Let our friends go, you jerks!" Pinkie demanded. "Prepare for your trouble half right," "That is our name but your friends are stuck tight," "To protect the world from devastation," "To untie all people within our nation," "To denounce the evils of truth and love," "To extend to the stars above," "Jessie," "James," "Adagio," "Aria," "Sonata," "Duke," "And Clyde," "Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!" "Surrender now or prepare for a one Mega Evolve fight!" "Meowth, that's right!" "Wobbuffet!" "Murkrow!" "That's how it's done," James smirked. "Serena? Sunset? Rarity? are you okay?" Ash asked. The bad guys turned in surprise that their motto was completely ignored! "We're fine..." The ladies assured. "Did Team Rocket hurt you?" Clemont asked "I'm fine! Don't worry!" Bonnie assured. "Could unite you me too?" Sycamore asked. "Sure thing, Professor!" Applejack as she began to untie. While they doing this, Team Rocket was outraged at this. "We give our totally awesome motto and you guys use the brush off!" Sonata complains about being frustrated. "Okay! Let's all get out of here!" Ash called freeing them. "That's NOT going to happen!" Aria shrieked angrily. starling the group then the laptop ding. "The mega software is ready to roll, folks!" Meowth reminded. "Sweet!" Clyde slid over ad got to work! "Now will catch Pokémon modern Mega Evolution way! Ready Meowth?" "Thought you never ask!" Meowth sneered as ran to the hidden machine then it started to glow! "What's that?" Jaden asked. "You see very soon, With the data secret weapon, it's Mega Evolution X2!" James declared. "Or, I call it the Mega Mega Meowth machine!" Clyde was present as made the finishing touches. "Activating program!" "What kind of machine is it?" Clemont asked. The tarp flew off, revealing a machine that look like Meowth but ten times bigger! "Rock and Roll!" Meowth said in the cockpit as the robot started to move. "Oh, my marvelous!" Sycamore complimented. "Impressive," Twilight did the same. "I know they're the enemy but that is a super cool invention!" Clemont starstrucked. "Not the best time for you three to be impressed!" Jaden exclaimed. "My bad," The three of them sighed. "Let's get out of here!" Serena shouted. "Come on guys!" Ash called. With that everyone ran outside the building as the robot rumbled after them, as they run, Chespin and Sandile tripped. "Chespin, no!" Clemont yelled. "Don't worry, I'm coming!" Pinkie yelled. Both ran toward and dives towards them getting the Pokémon out of danger then hid behind a concrete wall. "Talk about a close call!" Pinkie exclaimed. "Are you two okay?" "Sand!" "Pin!" "Good, We gotta help them!" Clemont said. Meanwhile, Twilight, Jaden, and Zane got out their Pokémon and joined Pikachu, and faced down the Mewoth Bot! "Operation Pokémon steal is a go!" Meowth cackled. "Alright, Pikachu use Thunderbolt!" "Liiligant, Solar Blade!" "Espeon, Psybeam!" "Totodile, Ice Fang!" Both Pikachu and Espeon send their attack as it was suddenly absorbed by the charm and sent right back at them! "Pikachu!" Ash gritted his teeth. "Espeon!" Twilight gasped. But Lilligant's Solar Blade and Totodile's Ice Fang made contact but it still standing! "This machine not only deflects your attack and sends them back with full power it can withstand physical attacks as well not even move as Giga Impact can dent it!" Clyde explained. "Giving us the upper hand!" Aria grinned. "No way!" Clemont exclaimed. "There gotta be something we can do." Chespin remembered something and urged Pinkie and Clemont to follow him. The Spiny nut Pokémon show them a cable on the back of the robot! "Please you guys hang in there!" Fluttershy said being concerned for the two. "Now let's make not catching Pikachu by hand a thing in the past!" James declared. "Talk about a Mega-Mega blast!" Duke exclaimed. "This one for the boss! We'll hand the powerful Pikachu of all time!" Meowth cackled. The robot prepared to grab them but it stop completely. "Now what's wrong?" Then the power went out. "Where's the juice?" "Could be a blackout?" Jessie asked. "Look that way!" Adagio agreed. "Look like we pulled the plug you hunk of junk!" Pinkie grabbed everyone's attention. Everyone turned to see Pinkie, Clemont, and the Pokémon holding the electric plug that the robot powered. The robot's mouth opens up with Meowth in the cockpit. "How do I fix this thing!" Meowth exclaimed. "Connecting it to the core!" Clyde ran over and told him, "10-4! Back up power your on! Linking to the main engine now!" The robot was back online! "I'll say one thing! They came prepared!" Clemont said. "Don't worry we can do this!" Pinkie reassured. "Now Sandile use Rock Blast!" "Right, Pinkie. Chespin, Pin Missile!" Both Pokémon fired their attacks but the robot was still standing. "No use, it's not working!" Zane said. "Use Bite!" "Tackle!" Both Chespin and Sandile got up close and personal. "It's too strong," Rarity exclaimed. "Don't be so sure!" Pinkie said. Despite it, Both Chespin and Sandile continued to attack it. "Pika!" "Lil!" "Dile!" "Good idea! All four of you!" Ash called. "Pikachu, Quick Attack! "Lilligant, Solar Blade!" "Totodile, Ice Fang!" All four Pokémon attack the robot again but to no avail. "Keep it Twerp Pokémon!" Meowth laugh then out of now A Flare Blitz did massive damage. "What the heck!" "No way that Blazkin's Mega Evolve form!" Zane exclaimed. "Oy vey!" Meowth worried as Team Rocket stammered in fear! "Use Flamethrower!" The Man in the Blazkien Mask shouted. Mega Blaziken use a Flamethrower and scorched it! "It's getting warm here!" The robot was completely burned covered in black soot and the core exposed. "It's been charbroiled!" Jessie exclaimed. "What happened!?" Aria asked. "Both sides were Mega Evolve but the machine got roasted in one shot!" James exclaimed. "Now, Pikachu, Electro Ball!" "I'm sure your Pin Missie will work now!" Both the Electro Ball and the Pin Missie hit the core and then glowed red. "Uh, James why is it glowing?" Duke asked, "The Mega-Mega Meowth Power Core took a direct hit! Is that the sound of impending doom!?" James explained. "If so, that you know what coming..." Sonata sheepishly said then the machine exploded and send Team Rocket flying. "WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" Team Rocket disappeared out of sight! "And don't come back!" Jaden shouted. Very Much Later... "Thank you so much for your help today," Sycamore thanked them. "Because of you I'm free again." "Yeah but still, your research lab's messed up again," Twilight pointed out. "Not to worry, I'll have it all fixed by the time you visit again," "Uh, big brother," Bonnie tugged Clemont's shoulder. "Yeah, is something wrong?" Clemomt asked. "Those two have been watching us," Bonnie pointed to Chespin and a Cottonee. "Clemont, I think that those two want to come along," Rarity implied. "Is that right?" Both of them nodded. "Are you okay with it Professor?" Rarity asked. "Sure I'm okay with it," Sycamore assured. "It's what they want." Clemont grabbed Chespin's Pokéball and Rarity used a Quick Pokéball and Cottonnee was caught. "Well that was simple," Serena said. "Don't you have to battle it?" "Normally yes but sometimes all have to do is ask," Twilight asked. "Now, off to Cyllage City!" Ash exclaimed as everyone started to run with Clemont trying to keep up. Our heroes have some new friends Chespin, Cottonee, and Pinkie Pie Now off to Cyllage City, where Ash takes his next step to enter the Kalos League As the journey continues Author's Note Pinkie's Team Sandile (stone edge, bite, rock blast, and dig) Wigglytuff (dazzling gleam, thunderbolt, and flamethrower) Togekiss (air slash, aura sphere, and Magical leaf) Rarity's Team Update Chimchar (Flame Wheel, Fury Swipes, Leer) Cottonee (Razor Leaf, Poison Powder, Grassy Terrian)
Chapter 32-PokéEnteering! The X in the Mist!View OnlinePokémon EG: XYChapter 32-PokéEnteering! The X in the Mist!"Good evening, everyone! Is everyone having a good time?" Professor Sycamore asked then everyone said yes. "That's marvelous to hear, thanks. And I just happen to have an event tomorrow that's even more marvelous. So get ready for a favorite tradition at summer camp: Pokémon Orienteering!" "Pokémon Orienteering?" Fluttershy asked. "You see the object of the race is for all teams to get cards stamped at every checkpoint as quickly make their to the finish line," he explained. "Teams Froakie and Squirtle are tied at 17 pts, but all teams have a chance to win. So do your best and above all have fun!" "Those 10 points are as good as ours!" Indigo boasted. "Oh yeah? Those points belong to us!" Rainbow counted. "Hey, Ash, how's the foot?" Twilight asked. "Good as new," Ash answered as he tapped it on the floor. "If we win, we'll be in the lead with 27," Lemon Zest told her team. "You're going to have to beat us to do it," Pinkie countered. "Looking at the facts with a cool head, there's no way we can lose," Sugarcoat added. "Don't count your chickens before they hatch," Applejack reminded her. "May the best team win." The Next Day the teams were now at the starting line and were currently reviewing the map as Sycamore made a quick announcement. "Good morning to you all. It's time to begin Day 5 with some Pokémon Orienteering. A chance to your best efforts with team cooperation." "We're going to win those 10 pts for sure!" Rainbow said confidently. "With a doubt," Rarity added. "Let's go. All for one and one for all," Pinkie stated as Team Froakie put their fist together and threw them into the air. "Alright. On your mark. Get set. And go!" The teams then started heading toward the first check even with Clemont slowing them down a bit, they reached the first checkpoint first with Team Squirtle right behind. "According to the map, the checkpoint is supposed to be right here, but I don't see anything," Ash noted. "Pika Pika!" The two teams saw Sophie on the top cliff beside them. "Please send one team member along with their Pokémon to get the stamp!" "We have to climb all way up there?" Zane asked. "That's a little extreme," Serena commented. "I climb cliffs all the time, this should be easy, ready Pikachu!" Indigo asked. "Pi Pikachu!" Both Indigo and Pikachu climb themselves up. "They're good alright but we'll have no problem getting up there," Ash said as he called out Froakie. "Are you ready to go up with me?" Froakie nodded and the two started to climb after Indigo who was already halfway up there. Pikachu jumped to the next segment and the cliff fell under Pikachu's feet. causing her to fall down. Indigo caught her but the force sent him off as well. "Quick Froakie, use your frubbles, now!" Ash ordered. Froakie used his frubbles to make a soft land for Indigo and she landed safely. "You okay?" "Yeah, look like I own you one." Ash, now ahead, soon got to the stamp and was on his way down. It hardly mattered anyway as Team Squirtle managed to pull ahead before they got to the second checkpoint with Sunny Flare using Serperior's vines to keep herself stable with Rarity crawling across with Whimsicott over the swaying bridge. Once Serena was back, the team was able to get past Team Squirtle and to the third checkpoint which was a cave maze. Clemont entered with Sugarcoat right behind him. Clemont managed to get the stamp first and headed to the next checkpoint. It was located on a small rock in the middle of the river with stones to hop across but Sunset could bypass it easily. "This will be a piece of cake," Sunset said. "Ready, Riolu?" Sunset and Riolu leaped to the stamp station. After two more checkpoints, both Team Froakie and Squirtle were neck and neck as they made theirs to the finish line. But it was starting to get foggy and Sunset was pretty sure they had gotten lost. "Clemont!" Sunset heard a voice shout and she thought she recognized Bonnie's voice. Running towards it she found Bonnie separated from the rest of the group and Sunset couldn't find them either. "Bonnie, you alright?" Sunset asked. "I'm fine, but where is everyone?" Bonnie asked nervously. "Dedenne!" "I don't know, but this fog feels really unnatural," Sunset answered that when something came by them. It looked a like a bigger and skinnier version of a Sawbuck, but the horns were glowing. "Sunset what's going on with the flowers?" Bonnie asked as the flowers started to bloom. "Could it be..." Sunset got a better look at it. "I think that's Xerneas." "As one of the legendary Pokémon, Xernas'?" "I've heard stories about it. Never thought I would see it with my own eyes." Then suddenly a Beedrill appeared from behind and attack them. Riolu reacted quickly and did a Rock Smash to the head and the Beedrill ran off. "That was close," Bonnie commented as she went to sit down but Sunset took note that she was about to sit on an Amoonguss. "Bonnie, look out!" Sunset shouted, but the Amoonguss already released Spore, and Sunset, Bonnie, and the Pokémon got a dose of it and fell asleep. ... Ash and the others were looking for Sunset and Bonnie. They were following some tracks Lemon Zest found Rarity's Chimchar cleared the fog a bit. Ash and Rainbow sent their flying Pokémon to search for their friends but they hadn't come back yet. "And now we lost the trail," Lemon Zet groaned. "Sunset, Bonnie," Rainbow called out then heard Flecthinder, Swellow, and Crobat circling overhead. "Maybe they found them." "Let's go see," Applejack said. As the group hopped over a fallen tree an Amoonguss let out Spre, forcing the group to cover their mouths. "Water! Spray it with water!" Sugatcoat said. "Right, Clawizter, Water Gun!" Sunny Flare called it out. Once Water Gun was used the Spore's started to clear. "Good idea," Hilida commented as she grabbed Golduck Pokéball. "Clemont, quick, bring out Chespin." Then two then threw out their Pokémon. "Water Pulse!" "Pin Missile!" The Water Pulse flew over the Spore and Chespin's Pin Missile hit the Water Pulse popping it like a balloon and sending the water over the remaining Spores. "That's care of that!" Zane noted. "So, sorry, Amoonguss," Fluttershy apologized then the Pokémon left as Swellow landed on a tree. "Swell. Swellow!" The gang followed Swellow all the way and they see Sunset with Riolu by her side sleeping. "Sunset and Riolu!" Jaden shouted as he and Twilight ran up to the two. "They're both asleep. You think they were hit by Amoonguss's Spores?" Rarity wondered. "Could be. And that means Bonnie could have as well," Clemont added. "Then where's the little dudette?" Indigo Zap asked. "Pika Pika!" Both Pikachus pointed in the direction of Bonnie. "How the heck did she get over here?" Applejack asked. "I don't know, but we've got to get over there," Zane responded. "But how do we get across this ravine?"Fluttershy asked. "Clemont, why don't you use your Aipom Arm?" "Too short. It won't reach." "So now what are we going to do?" Serena asked. "Wait a minute," Pinkie looked further down in the ravine and saw something. "There's a bunch of Drifloon and Drifbilm at the bottom. Maybe there's a way to get them to help us." "Maybe if we startle them, maybe they'll fly up to us," Clemont suggested. "Then what?" Rainbow asked. "When they fly up, they'll fill in the ravine and we can use them as a bridge!" Sugarcoat realized. "I handle this, she's sister," Clemont said then Rainbow stopped. "Hold on a second, I'm good with this kind of stuff." "Rainbow are you sure?" "I'm sure, just get them to fly up. I'll be over there in no time," Rainbow assures him. A few moments later a series of attacks got the Drifloon and Drifbilm to float up to the top of the ravine. "Alright, Rainbow, you got this!" Rainbow crossed over the Drifbilm bridge easily and ran up to Bonnie, who was asleep. Rainbow put Bonnie on her shoulders and cross back to the others. Much later at the camp... "Sorry about that everyone," Sunset apologized. "Me too," Bonnie added. "No worries, it was awesome and above all, you two managed to see Xerneas!" Lemon Zest exclaimed. "I still can't believe we saw it," Rarity was still puzzled. "I hope to see it again," Ash added hoping to see the Legendary Pokémon again.
