Drew glanced to the side. He hadn't even realized that they had had a spectator. A youngish boy with a Spearow had greeted them. Drew opened his mouth, and was halfway through saying, "Hello," when he found himself interrupted by a Gastly's tongue.

 

He couldn't help bursting into laughter. This Gastly was too amusing. It had knocked its glasses askew, and his hair had been messed up. He tidied himself up, still grinning. "Oh, it's alright, Luna. Don't worry about it. Your Gastly is delightful, by the way.

 

 Shinx managed to avoid the first two rocks, but the third caught it right in the midriff knocked it clean off its feet, and it fell, unconscious.

 

 "Your Growlithe's got spirit, Leon, I'll give it that," Jasmine called. "Bronzor, dodge it!" And with a bit of twirl, Bronzor cleanly dodged Growlithe's rash attack. Growlithe landed right on the superheated portion of flooring.

 

 Fortunately all of the trainers on Route Thirty-Eight seemed to be engaged, and the way to Ecruteak City was clear.

 

The plan worked. Team Rocket grunts were not famed for their wit or cunning. Minun's attack was aimed just far enough to one side to cause Sneasel to deflect off course. Right into Plusle.

 

((You have control of Sneasel now. Feel free to choose how the battle ends.))

((Aladdin's on. It'll be a bit before I can post again.))

"Aww, that's sad..." I ran over to the little dude. He'd made a good run of it. I picked him up, stuck him in my pack (head out of course) and ran off to get to a Pokémon Center. Or maybe a doctor. I figured either would be helpful at this point, I'd left the medicine bag on the boat. I was always losing stuff and getting more stuff.

Stella smiled, seeing as all the other trainers were busy. Seeing Ecruteak City ahead, Stella remembered that the gym leader there battled with ghost types. Which dark types were strong against. "What do you say, Absol? Up for a battle?"

 

Absol did nothing in response, but his eyes filled with worry again.

 

Arriving in to town, Stella wandered around, enjoying the rustic looking building, for a bit, coming in to contact with rarely anybody.

"Your Growlithe's got spirit, Leon, I'll give it that," Jasmine called. "Bronzor, dodge it!" And with a bit of twirl, Bronzor cleanly dodged Growlithe's rash attack. Growlithe landed right on the superheated portion of flooring.

"Yeah I guess you could say that." Leon responded before noticing the part the the floor Growlithe landed on. ~Hmm the floor is still hot from Growlithe's last Ember. I wonder...~ Leon thought to himself, the gears in his head turning.

 

"Alright Growlithe use Ember again but this time aim for the floor." Growlithe looked confused by this command as were the remaining spectators. "Just trust me." Leon said to his Pokemon. Growlithe nodded his head and did as he was told hitting the ground near Bronzor with an Ember attack. "That's it now just keep doing that." Growthlie continued to fire off Ember attacks at the floor until the area that surrounded Bronzor was nothing but a big burning cherry-red spot.

 

"Quick use Flame Wheel, knock him on to the floor!!" Growlithe quickly charged at Bronzor and spun around him a few times with Flame Wheel before going in for on final blow.

 

~Come on Growlithe you can do it.~ Leon thought to himself hoping this would finish Bronzor.

So, then I was just walking along the path when I saw a great big lighthouse close by! I mean, I was still gonna take the Shinx to the center, but man, I had to see this lighthouse! I came close to it and there was a couple trainers having some fun. "Hey!"

Attached to the door of the Ecruteak Gym, an ancient building, was a sign. It read, "Leader Morty is away, training with Fantina of Hearthome City in Sinnoh. He will be back in a week's time. If you want to take the Gym Challenge, go to Olivine City, Goldenrod City, or Violet City in the meantime."

 

The sign looked slightly weathered, as if it had already been up for a few days.

Jasmine seemed to realize what Leon's plan was just moments too late. "Bronzor, no!" 

 

Flame Wheel from the angle Growlithe had hit it from sent Bronzor clanging to the floor, right onto the superheated metal. It shuddered, and tried to get up, but moments later Growlithe, who had still been airborne, landed on top of it, pushing it back down onto the red-hot surface, where it shuddered, struggling to get up.

 

Moments later, before Jasmine could give it an order, it stopped trying to get up. It seemed the metal had cooled somewhat, but Bronzor could clearly take no more. "Bronzor is unable to battle!" Clyde declared, waving his flag. "The winner of this round is the challenger, Leon from Virbank City!"

Drew looked up at the sudden greeting, and was shocked to see a somewhat shady-looking guy standing there like nobody's business. His outfit resembled... Wait. No. 

 

He'd seen stuff on TV as a kid about Team Rocket, the terrorist organization that was terrorizing Kanto, and then Johto a few years later. But this couldn't be a member, could it? His appearance didn't exactly match the uniform he remembered from the news, but maybe, all this time later, they'd changed the outfit? Either way, Drew's hand drifted casually to Eevee's Pokeball as he inclined his head. "Hey there."

 

He did not notice the unconscious Pokemon in the man's backpack.

"Oh... Um. Would you prefer if I left?" He felt like this was getting awkward fast. Xatio turned to leave when Spearow flew off his head in front of Abra. "Spear?" Xatio sighed. "Spearow, could you please come back?" Spearow ignored him, wanting to talk to Abra. She was being rather excitable today.

Luna, being her anti social self, Pretended to be looking for something in her bag. She pulled out a large book about extinct pokemon and hid behind it...what she didn't know is that the book was upside down...so it was rather obvious she was just shy. She didn't notice the Spearow at her feet.

Abra eyed the Spearow, unsure whether it was a friend or foe."Aaaabra ?" It said, quietly, hesitantly sticking out its claw.

[aRegularPony 306]

"Speeaarrr." Spearow put out her claw, shaking Abra's own. It wasn't often she could meet new pokemon, as in Azalea town it was usually the same bugs (Which, she had been tempted to eat multiple times), with the rare event of a trainer coming through, though they usually went straight to the gym. So, for her, meeting a new pokemon was a great thing.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,803]

Abra slowly backed away behind Luna's leg, pulling down on her loose pants, trying to get her attention. Luna looked down only to see the Spearow...which she felt rather surprised about. "Hey there little one." She said, reaching down and patting it on the head.

Luna had always felt more comfortable around Pokemon than she did around other people so she was happy for something to do...that wasn't staring at a book.

[aRegularPony 306]

@,

"Spear-Spearow!~" Spearow enjoyed being petted, and was showing it. 

Xatio watched Spearow and smiled, then turned his head, scanning his surroundings. He decided he would go look for some pokemon after this. That is, if Spearow wanted to leave. Though she seemed pretty happy as was. He went back to looking at his pokemon, making sure nothing bad would happen to her.

[Miss Light Diamond 2,803]

Luna chuckled at how much Spearow was enjoying this. She pulled two berries from her bag and gave one to Abra and the other to Spearow.

She looked up and noticed the boy who obviously owned the Spearow. She quickly looked away as if she hadn't noticed him.

Route 37 was quite short, heavily wooded, consisting mostly of a few patches of grass and a Apricorn Orchard. Spinarak could be seen weaving their webs in a tree, while a Pidgeyotto nested in another. There were several Ledyba and Ledian flying about, and noises were coming from a clearing a short distance into the woods, although what exactly was moving was not visible through the trees. A few trainers stood, lulling around, but in the midafternoon sun did not seem particularly inspired to battle at the moment.

All the Pokemon still on the route with any sense scattered; the Snubbull ran yipping into the woods, the Tauros into their barn, and the Farfetch'd flew off, terrified.

Route Thirty-six. You come to a fork in the road. The left road will take you to Violet City, and the right will take you to the National Park and Goldenrod City. Looking down the right route, there are two trainers battling, one with a Tangela, the other with a Kadabra. There is a Vulpix playing in the grass with a Nidoran?. A small swarm of Ledyba fly above. A Pineco hangs from a tree, and an Eggsecute seems to have been knocked out of a different tree by a Hoothoot.
