Daisuke was confused. What the- Why won't it get out of the way?? Starly's Tackle made contact with Piplup. "What's wrong with your Piplup? It won't obey anything you tell it to do."



"Torchic, watch out!" Before the orange chick could dodge the attack, it was attacked by Rattata's Quick Attack. Torchic slammed into the ground. It slowly got up, though injured. "Hang in there Torchic. Try Scratch one more time!" Torchic began to charge at Rattata, once again readying its claws.

Ryan: Rattata, no!!!! *the pokemon was hit.* Rattata!!!

Rattata: Ratta-ta... *the pokemon falls to the ground.*

Ryan: Hm... return... *he recalls his pokemon. Then he hands over $50 for losing.* Your a good trainer... next time, I won't loose!! *he rushed down the road to the nearest pokemon center.*

Larck: Piplup!!! *she ran over to the pokemon which was on the ground.* Why didnt you listen to me?... Now your hurt!!! Oh... what to do now?!...

Rentan: *he walked towards the two trainers.* Well, well, well... if it isnt Larckie... *he removed his glasses.* What happened? Did you just suffer your first lost?

Larck: Rentan... please... Piplup is hurt... What should I do?

Rentan: Well if it were my pokemon, i'd let it heal on its own. And if I couldnt, i'd just leave it. You should take my second one. *he slides his glasses on his face and walks off, looking at Daisuke before he passes him up.*

"Return Starly!" The bird was returned into the Pokeball. Daisuke glanced back at Rentan then walked over to Larck. "C'mon, there's a Pokemon Center nearby. I have to go there anyway, so I'll show you where it is."



Claire smiled. "Great job Torchic!"

"Tor...chic." Torchic fell to the ground.

"Torchic, oh no!" The female trainer ran over to her Pokemon. "You're injured. Let's get you to a Pokemon Center." She held the orange chick in her arms and began to immediately head straight for the Pokemon Center.



Meanwhile, another battle was about to begin. It was between two female trainers.

"Alright Eevee, show this trainer who she's dealing with," said the older trainer. This older trainer was named Naomi. A 16 year old trainer who comes from the Kanto region.

"Eevee!" Eevee jumped off the female's shoulder and landed, all four legs, onto the ground.

"Let's go, Shinx!" the other trainer shouted throwing a Pokeball. Appeared an adorable blue Pokemon.

"Alright Eevee, let's begin with Sand-Attack!" Eevee got a little closer to the foe's Shinx and began to kick sand onto its face. "Tackle!" Eevee rushed in after kicking the sand and tackled Shinx.

"Shinx, hurry up and Tackle it back!" Shinx got the sand out of its face and tried to attack Eevee, but clearly couldn't see well thanks to the sand in its eyes. The tackle was easily missed.

"Eevee, end this match with Shadow Ball!" Eevee began to form a shadowy ball in front of itself. She launched it at the Shinx which made full contact. The Shinx slammed onto the ground and fainted.

"Shinx, return!" The blue Pokemon was recalled and the trainer left.

Naomi ran over to Eevee. "You were great Eevee. Let's go check how Dragonair is doing at the Pokemon Center."

"Eevee!" The brown Pokemon leaped back onto Naomi's shoulder and both began to walk to the Pokemon Center.

Larck: *Carried Piplup in her arms as she followed Daisuke.* Why won't Piplup listen to me?... Does it hate?... But I didnt do anything to it... I have to do something to make it like me...

Both Daisuke and Larck reached the Pokemon Center before night fall. Behind the desk was Nurse Joy and her assistant, Chansey. "Hello Nurse Joy, can you please heal my Starly and Larck's Piplup?"

"Sure, Chansey, please take this young lady's Piplup to the ER."

"Chansey." Chansey took the Piplup and placed it gently on a stretcher. She pushed it to the back room (ER).

"I'll take your Starly."

"Sure, here you go Nurse Joy." Daisuke handed Nurse Joy the Pokeball Starly was in.

"Don't worry. Both of your Pokemon will be fine," said Nurse Joy heading into the ER. Another Chansey took Nurse Joy's place at the front desk.

Few minutes later, Claire entered with her injured Torchic. She saw both Daisuke and Larck. She walked up to the front desk. "Please help my Torchic. It was injured during a battle."

"Chansey." Claire handed Torchic to Chansey. Just like Piplup, Torchic was sent to the back room.

Claire looked over at Larck. "So, I guess something happen to your Piplup."

Mikau came to a fork in the road.

"Hmm, I'm not so good at these sticky situations, better let Chikorita decide"

He throws his Pokeball into the air, and out pops his Chikorita

Chikorita: Chikah!!!

"Ok Chikorita, I want you to razor leaf up into the air, then we'll see which path to take"

The Chikorita does as told and the leaf lands to the left path.

"Looks like we're going left! Ok Ch......"

Chikorita already knew what was going to happen. So Mikau didn't recall it.

"Actually, lets go for a walk. The nearest town is Perlight. See it on the map?"

(When Chansey took Piplup to the Er.)

Larck: Uh?!... Is it hurt that bad?

(After Claire came into the Pokemon center.)

Larck: *she nods* Yeah... I tried to battle with it. But when I gave it a comand, it wouldnt listen... Im becoming a bad trainer already...

Claire smiled. "Nah, it usually happens to most trainers. Your Piplup will like you soon."

"It's mostly my fault." He sighs. "If I knew Piplup wasn't going to obey you then I wouldn't have battled you."

Soon, the doors open and Naomi walked in. Before she even walked up to the front desk, the corner of her eye caught Daisuke. She looked right at him, shocked.

"Daisuke!"

Daisuke looked over. "Oh no, not Naomi."

"What do you mean "oh no"?"

He sighs. "I thought you stop being a trainer."

She smiled. "For a little bit yeah, but now I'm back. I'll beat you in the Solain League and I promise that."

"Ha, you lost to me in the Kanto League so how are you going to win this time?" he said with a smirk.

Eevee began to growl at Daisuke. "I've gotten stronger since then and I got new Pokemon now." She walked up to the front desk. "Hi, I'm here to pick up my Dragonair."

"Chansey!" She walked over to the far left and grab a Pokeball containing Naomi's Dragonair. Chansey handed the ball to her.

"Thanks." She began to walk over to the door. "Good luck Daisuke." And with that, Naomi left the Pokemon Center.

Larck: *she watched as the female trainer walked out of the pokemon center.* Is she a friend of yours Daisuke?

Rentan: What does it matter? *he walks into the pokemon center.* Shes gone now... *he removes his sunglasses*

Larck: You even wear those things at night?...

Rentan: Coolness doesnt have a watch. So, Larckie and Claire-Bear need to heal their pokemon. Im not suprised... But what Iam shocked by is this guy... *he looks at Daisuke.* Why would you take half the blame for sending Larckie's chump to the Er? You were just doing wha every trainer would do. Its her fault if her dumb pokemon doesnt listen.

Larck: Hey!!! Don't insult Piplup!!!!!

Rentan: Pipe down!

Larck: Grrr....

Rentan: Look, I know half of these words are too complex for you, so let me break it down. Me-want-Pokemon-Battle. One more time... Me *he points to himself.* want-Pokemon *he points to Chansey* Battle *he makes a fist with one hand and points to it with the other.* ((lol I bet you know where I got that one from...))

Claire-Bear?

Daisuke grinned. "But I don't like battling a Pokemon who hasn't obey their trainer yet. It's wrong and unfair. So let me guess, your a beginner trainer too. If I had a battle with you, it wouldn't last even a minute. So change that attitude of yours or you'll never reach that top."

Nurse joy walked to the front desk. "Don't worry, both of your Pokemon just need a good rest and they'll be fine. Daisuke, your Starly has fully recovered." She handed the Pokeball to Daisuke.

"Thanks Nurse Joy," he said placing the Pokeball back on his belt.

Rentan: *he smiles* You really are stupid arent you... I wasnt asking you for a battle. I was demanding it!!

Larck: *she let out a sigh of relief* Good... at least Piplup is okay. *she looks at Rentan then at Daisuke* Rentan really believes he can beat him. I wonder if Daisuke will give him a chance...

Rentan: So when will you get your butt handed to ya?!...

Female trainers Voice: Thats not gonna happen anytime soon.

Rentan: That voice... *he turns around.*

F.T: Your such a meanie Tan-Tan, why must you be so forceful?

Larck: Elu!!

Elu: Larckie?... Is that you? So you did become a pokemon trainer?

Larck: Her too?...

Rentan: Ezulu, what do you want?!

Elu: You purposely left me at home sleep!!!!

Rentan: I couldnt let you beat me at getting a pokemon.

Elu: Well it doesnt really matter now. But what does matter is that im here and you want a battle. How about it? Your Charmander vs My Kippe.

Rentan: Sorry... but I wont challenge girls... unless their a gym leader. *he looks at Daisuke.* The only person im challenging is you!!

Claire grinned. Won't challenge girls?! That jerk!

Daisuke smirked. "The forcing type I see huh? Fine, I'll battle, but I'll warn you, I won't go easy on you." He walks over to the door and was about to exit the Pokemon Center to battle outside. "Oh yeah, should I use my strongest Pokemon or go easy on you?"

Rentan: *he blinked* He asked me like im gonna tell him to go easy on me. You should already know that answer... BRING EM ALL ON!!!!!

Larck: *sigh* This will be easy for Daisuke. *she looked at Claire.* Are you going to watch the battle Claire?

Elu: I know I am... I wanna see my brother get schooled. *she looked at Claire.* I don't remember seeing you around town. Im Ezulu, but you can call me Elu. *she smiled*

Rentan: *he marched outside making sure he put on his sunglasses.* Three on three battle... that sound good to you?

Larck: He already has three pokemon?!... I only have Piplup... well I need to get it to listen to me first...

"Alright, your call kid."

Claire looked over at Elu. "That's strange. I never saw you either. It doesn't matter anyway right?" She laughs. "Hi, I'm Claire," she said walking outside. "I don't know what Rentan is thinking. He's going against an experienced trainer."

Daisuke took a Pokeball from his belt. "Aron, you're first!" He threw the Pokeball into the air and as it opened a gray Pokemon appeared.

"Ar!"

"Aron?" Claire took her Pokedex out and pointed it at Aron.

*Aron, the Iron Armor Pokemon. It usually lives deep in mountains. However, hunger may drive it to eat railroad tracks and cars.*

Larck: *she pulled out her pokedex*

Pokedex: Aron, the Iron Armor Pokemon. It is cladded in steal armor. A new suit of armor is made when it evolves. The old is discarded is salvaged as metal for making iron parts.

Elu: *she looks at Larck and Claire.* Cool, that lady gave you two a pokedex too.

Rentan: Alright... lets start with Zigzagoon... *he through the pokeball and out popeda brown and white pokemon.*

Larck: Zigzagoon?...

Pokedex: Zigzagoon, the tinyRaccoon pokemon. The hair on its back is bristly. It rubs the hard back hair on trees to leave its territorial markings. It may play dead in a battle to fool its enemies.

Rentan: *he had his hands in his pockets* Zigzagoon, tackle...

Zigzagoon: Za-Goon!! *it chages towards Aron*

Rentan: This is already an unfair match up, normal type attacks arent that effective to steel... I guess we'll have to wing it!
