Becoming a Hoenn Master

[Venasaur89]

gr8 chapter! Cyndaquil will probably evolve before the fire competition or in the competition.

keep it up....

[Dragon_Claw]

Chapter Sixteen - The Fire Competition gets closer

'Nuuuuuuuuum......el.......', the Numel yelled bored.

'Ow you're so going to be mine!', Jason yelled, and he glared at Numel.

'This is like so boring! Catch him already!', Rose yelled impatient.

'Yes, you're right! Meditite, I choose you!', Jason yelled, while throwing a Pokéball on the ground.

'Tite...tite...medi!', Meditite yelled, before going in a fighting pose.

The Numbel noticed this and took charge.

'Meditite, Confusion!', Jason yelled at Meditite. Meditite stood with his hands forwards and his eyes turned black. Meditite made rounds with his hands, and shot a wave of black energy at Numel. Numel shot back, and Meditite started punching him really hard.

'Meditite, come back!', Jason yelled.

'What's wrong with Meditite?', I asked Jason.

'He gets carried away in fights. If he thinks he has the upper hand, he starts smashing away. Pokéball, go!', Jason told us, while he threw out another Pokéball.

'Maku...hita!', the Pokémon yelled. The Pokémon was fat and yellow, with red circels on his cheecks.

'Makuhita, use Mega Punch!', Jason yelled excited. Then Numel fainted. Makuhita acted very strange and yelled out it's name.

'What is he doing?', Rachel asked.

'It's a bit sad actually. Because Makuhita is yellow and has red cheecks, Makuhita thinks he's a Pikachu, so now it's trying to perform a Thunder Bolt.', Jason explained.

'What do you say when the Thunder Bolt isn't working?', Rose asked.

'In a case like this I say it's not working because Numel is a ground type, and in other cases I say I hasen't learned Thunderbolt yet.', Jason said.

We all laughed. Jason threw a Pokéball at the defeated Numel, and the ball closed. Beep....beep....beep....beep....ping! The ball closed, and Jason laughed in joy.

'Yes, I finally caught a fire Pokémon, now I can enter the Fire Competition!', Jason yelled.

***

After twenty more minutes of walking we got to a building, with behind it a great vulcano.

'Mount Chimney...', Rose mumbled.

'Where do we sign in?', I asked.

'I bet it's the building over there.', Rachel said.

***

'Hello, do you wish to enter the Fire Competition?', a friendly looking women asked us.

'Yes, both of us.', Jason replied.

'Okay, I need your name, hometown and Pokémon.', the women said.

'I'm Brad from Blackthorn City, and I wish to battle with my Cindaquil.', I said.

'Okay, you are registered as number nine. And you?', the women asked.

'I'm Jason, I'm also from Blackthorn City. I'll battle with my Numel.', Jason told the women.

'Okay, you are number ten. I wish you both the best of luck. Next please.', the women said.

***

'Numel, go out!', Jason yelled.

'Nuuuuuuumel!', Numel yelled. Jason started petting it, and Numel rolled over on it's back.

Jason quickly turned it on it's feet, because of it's round back it was hard to lay on it's back. Jason scanned Numel with his Pokédex and he said: 'It's a girl. Just like your Cindaquil!'

We discovered that everybody participating in the Fire Competition got a room in a three star hotel. We decided that Rose and Rachel should share a room, and that Jason and I would share a room. The thing was that Rachel and Rose both wanted a room for their own. Shees...girls....

Jason and I let Cindaquil and Numel out of their Pokéballs for the night, to get plenty of rest in the bed. But the bed wasn't big enough for all four of us, so Jason and I slept on the floor.

[totodilelover]

THis was a good chapter and funny. I like the makuhita thinking it was a pikachu that was great lol. I can't wait for the next chapter. I think it will be good also.

[Conn]

Goodjob!IalsolikedtheMakukita!Sorry,mykeyboardisn' tworking.

[Dragon_Claw]

I was reading 'Electric Buggy To Victory' and 'From Rookie To Champion - The Indigo Road' and I saw their characters got questions. Hmmm, you wouldn't make them think they're boring, now would you? O yeah, the next chapter, right. here it is.

Chapter Seventeen - Fire Competition, Begin!

'And now, the Fire competition opening will begin!', the boomers boomed, shocking all the people in the audience.

A guy with ten Pokémon of the same specie appeared. The Pokémon where red and yellow coloured, had sharp claws and a beak. I consulted my Pokédex.

The Pokédex said: 'Magmar, the Spitfire Pokémon. This Pokémon is born in volcanoes, and tries to spend it's life near one as much as possible. This Pokémon's body heat is close to 2,000 degrees, but touching it won't hurt you.

The Magmars started to stand around him, facing the aucience. The man started to blow on a whistle and the royal-looking spitfires started to roar their name. The man blew on his whistle now twice, and the Pokémons used an Ember on some fire-works, and the fire-work rockets got lifted up in the air. They exploded and in the air was written: 'Fire Competition.'

The boomers then banged: 'And now the people who will compete in the Fire Competition will enter the stage.'

A lot of people, Jason and I walked up to the ring and waved at the audience. Everybody started clapping, and the Magmar's walked to the walls of the battle field. We then left, and we got ready for the first battle of the day. We looked at the board, and saw that Jason was battling against Ferry, the hyper-active trainer from a about two days ago.

Jason:

I was nervous when I walked up to the stage, seeing I never battled with Numel before. I wasn't really expecting to win this entire contest, I knew that I wouldn't even stand a chance against Cindaquil and Brad. I was just more trying to train Numel. I arrived at the place where I had to stand, and I looked over at Ferry. He was as hyper as ever.

'Trainers...begin!', the referee yelled.

'Slugma, come out and use your Ember!', Ferry yelled while throwing Slugma's Pokéball on the ground.

'Numel, use your own Ember.', I yelled. The two Embers hit eachother, and they each disappeared. I could see their strength was about equal.

'Slugma, Yawn!', Ferry yelled.

I noticed Ferry wasn't as hyper-active anymore since Brad defeated him. We should get a reward from his parents. 'Numel, Take Down!'

Numel took charge and when she just hit, Slugma started to yawn really hard. The yawn got over my Numel, and Numel started to sleep.

'Numel, try to wake up girl!', I yelled at Numel, but Numel was fast asleep.

'Slugma, Body Slam!', Ferry yelled.

'Oh no, this is gonna be the end for us!', I thought. Slugma jumped on Numel's back, but the whole in Numel's back grew red, and fire erupted from it. The fire lifted Slugma up in the air, and shot him back on the ground.

'And so the sleaping Numel defeated Slugma, without even able to celibrate it's victory!', the boomers spoke, as I lifted Numel in the air and yelled: 'We did it, we did it!'

Rachel:

I saw how Jason's Numel lifted up Ferry's Slugma in the air, and how the Numel won.

'I sure could turn Numel into a real beauty queen!', I yelled while Jason was cheering.

'With that dull face expression? I think not!', Brad said joking.

'You of all people should know better that beauty is from the inside as well as the outside!', I said dissappointed.

'Numel defeated Slugma while sleeping, never having a battle with Jason as trainer. Or Numel is strong, or she has much experience. Either way, Jason will do her fine.', Brad told me.

'Hmmm, Never realised Brad knows that much about Pokémon.', I thought to myself.

Brad:

'Wow, I never saw Jason battle like that. Numel was so powerfull, and Jason knew exactly how to control her. If I have to fight against the two of them, I would have a hard time. But if I ever need to fight those two, Cindaquil and I will have some practice against other people here.', I tought to myself.

I looked at Rose, at noticed she was blushing. She didn't say anything during the fight, but she was giggling all the time. The time we got to our room, I noticed Jason was cheered up, I haven't seen him like this in a while. In fact, the last time I saw him so happy was when his older brother sent him his Gulpin. I saw on the board that Cindaquil and I had to fight an old man with a Growlithe...

[totodilelover]

That wqas pretty good. I liked the battle. I thought it was funny when Rachel said she could make numel look cute. Keep on writing.

[AltariaMaster]

Impressive!
Very well done!

[Venasaur89]

Last chapter was kinda confusing. I didn't get If the competition started or not/

[Dragon_Claw]

venasaur: Yes the fire tournament has started, and Jason has won the first round.

Chapter Eighteen - Heating up the battle

Brad:

'Cyndaquil, Flame Thrower! Krabby, Bubble!', I yelled at my two Pokémon.

'cookie cookie!', Krabby yelled, as he dodged the flamethrower and started pinching Cyndaquil.

'Krabby, cut it out! Train Cyndaquil!', I yelled at Krabby, but Krabby came running at me.

'Krabby, don't you dare pinch me! Listen to me, for I am your trainer!', I yelled at Krabby.

'cookie cookie!', Krabby threatened me.

'Cyndaquil, help me!', I yelled at Cyndaquil. Cyndaquil stepped forward, but Krabby looked at Cyndaquil with evil in his eyes, and I recalled Krabby.

'Not going to well, huh?', Rachel asked me.

I grinned at her and I said: 'Krabby is always trying to pinch somebody.'

'Yeah, training can be a drag. Don't overdo it, you'll be fighting this afternoon. I heard your opponent and his Growlithe are very tough. The fights of yesterday are being showed, you can watch that guy and Jason can watch himself.', Rachel said.

'Okay then, let's go get Jason and Rose now!', I yelled excited.

Rose:

'Come on Rose, wake up!', Rachel yelled.

'Yeah yeah.' I replied. 'Come on Bellossom.' Bellossom yawned and waited for me to get dressed.

'Bella!', Bellossom yelled as she climbed on my shoulder.

***

Five minutes later I heard a noise coming from behind me.

'Vuuuuuuuuul!', the noise sounded like. I looked back, but saw nothing.

'Vuuuuul!', the noise came again. I looked back and saw a red fox-like Pokémon.

'Let's see...', I said to myself. I grabbed Jason's Pokédex (which I stole from his Pocket) and scanned the Pokémon.

'Vulpix, the fox Pokémon. This Pokémon is born with only one white tail. The one tail splits into more tails if it gets older. The most tails it can get are six.', the Pokédex said.

'Wow, I want to have one!', I yelled. 'Bellossom, do your thing!'

Bellossom:

I watched in fear as Rose was putting me in a battle against that fire monster! I hate fire types! I want Rachel!

'Don't do it! Don't do it! I can pretend to be a Vulpix!', I yelled in fear to Roseanne, but she couldn't understand me.

'You're so cute when you think you can beat everybody!', Rose giggled.

'Hewwo! Who awe youw?', Vulpix asked me.

'I'm Bellossom. Where is your mother?' I replied.

'Mommy has been cauwt! I want a new mommy! Wilw you be my mommy?', the Vulpix asked.

'Hurry up and fight, Belly ossomy!', Rose yelled impatient.

'I hope that isn't a new nickname. I don't want to, but she wants to be you new mother.', I said.

'What do I have to do? Tell me, ow pwetty pwetty pwease!', Vulpix yelled.

'Walk up to her, grab a nice looking Pokéball and go in it.', I explained.

And so Vulpix did. Vulpix walked up to a Pokéball with little diamonds in it, tapped her nose on the button, and she became a bundle of bright white energy. She didn't try to come out, so the Diamond Ball just beeped.

'Wow, I'm like so good!', Rose yelled.

Rose:

'Wow, Belly and I make a great team!', I thought to myself while running towards the movie room. 'Just to bad Vulpix picked the Glitter Ball, I was going to put Bellossom in it.

***

After five minutes Rose arrived at the movie room, and she sat down next to Rachel. Rose saw a man with his Growlithe using very fast moves. this Growlithe outran the Vulpix of it's opponent, confused it by moving so fast, and eventually knocking it out.

'Hmmm, I've seen that Pokémon before somewhere...', I said. I didn't quite remember where.

'Maybe you caught the Pokémon.', Brad said, making Jason and Rachel laugh.

'Oh, right. How do you know that?', I asked Jason confused.

Then they all looked stunned at me

[Venasaur89]

That was a okay chapter. Nothing exciting didn't happen/ The title of the chapter was different than the chapter. Actually, pokemon don't act the way Vulpix do. It was pretty short, only about 620 words. An average chapter has about 1000 words.
hope u improve that./

Anyway, keep it up....

[Dragon_Claw]

Yeah I noticed that just after you said that. The title was next chapter's title, accidentily mixed them up

And for the shortness, I didn't have any spare time so I just rounded it off.

[Dragon_Claw]

Damnit, my brother and sister now know my password so I'll have to change username, I'll post my new username after I made one

[Dragon_Claw]

Well....Tadaa, this is me (PokéRuler)

[Hanada Tattsu]

Wow, I just read this story, and I loved it!

It's really cool, the description is great, and so are the Pokemon! Great job!

Write more!

[pokemonrule13]

WOW! The life of a pokemon can be tough. I like how you descirbed things so well. You make your storys at a good length so it does not take forever to read. I like the luxuary ball thing. That was really neat. You are a very good writer.

[Dragon_Claw]

Chapter Nineteen - Heating up the battle

'On the green side, all the way from Vermillion City, Sigmund and his Growlithe! And on the red side, straight from Blackthorn City, Brad and his special blue-fired Cindaquil!', the announcer spoke threw the boomers.

'I've been watching your last fight, and I must say you're impressed!', I yelled to 'Sigmund'.

'Well, I haven't see you battle yet, but I hope you're pretty strong. Growlithe and I hope you'll be worth fighting. Growlithe, go forward and approach your opponent.', Sigmunt said.

'Yeah uh right, Cindaquil, start off with a Flame Thrower, now!', I yelled at Cindaquil.

'There's no need for yelling, now is there! Growlithe, Extreme Speed.', Sigmund said to Growlithe.

Growlithe dodged Cindaquil's blue Flame Thrower, and hit Cindaquil in the progress. Cindaquil smashed back, and the beautifull blue fire on Cindaquil's back went out.

'Cindaquil, try to get your fire back on!', I yelled at Cindaquil, who was getting pretty scared by now.

'Cinda.........quil!', Cindaquil yelled, but the fire didn't go on.

'Yes Growlithe, we got Cindaquil right where we want him. Tackle, now please.', Sigmund spoke politely to Growlithe.

'I'm not gonna lose to some english guy, and neither are you Cindaquil! Try your own tackle!', I yelled at Cindaquil, with spit flying around.

The dog Pokémon and the mouse Pokémon hit eachother with their heads, and then they started pushing.

I yelled: 'Cindaquil, this is good! Use your Smoke Screen, try to get out as many smoke as possible!' Cindaquil heard this, and Cindaquil used a very strong Smoke Screen, and Growlithe was surrounded by a pitch black smoke. Growlithe started coughing and completely lost sight.

'Cindaquil, remember that Swift always hits? Have fun with shooting stars!', I yelled. Cindaquil started smiling and opened it's mouth. Three beautifull golden stars fromed in her throat, and she started shooting. About fifteen stars where shot at Growlithe, and Growlithe got shot back.

'Growlithe, a taste of Cindaquil's own medicine, Sand-Attack.', Sigmund said and Growlithe started throwing sand in Cindaquil's eyes (who always are closed but whatever). Growlithe did this for about five minutes, and both Pokémon where walking around like Spinda drunks.

'Growlithe, Flame Thrower.', Sigmund said, starting to get impatient.

'Cyndaquil, good! Your Flame Thrower now too!', I yelled. I smiled as I saw that both Flame Throwers where missing.

The two fire typed Pokémon where walking around, nearing eachother, shaking their head and arms around. Then they got too close, at they hit their heads. The Pokémon both fell back.

'Oh no! This is bad! Growlithe, come up!', Sigmund yelled nervous.

'Such bad manners.', I said smiling.

'Shut up! In case you didn't notice, your Pokémon has the same problem.', Sigmund yelled angry at me.

'Maybe you should pay less attention to me, and more to the field!', I yelled laughing.

It was true. Cindaquil was crawling back up, and looked as good as before the headbutt with the watch-dog Pokémon.

'I have another trick up my sleeve too!', Sigmund yelled, as he threw a rock at Growlithe.

'Hurting your own Pokémon will not make them win, It'll just make them faint!', I laughed. I looked how the rock hit Growlithe, but Growlithe didn't yell in pain, he started glowing a beautifull white colour. Growlithe also started growing bigger and wider.

'This is an illegal move! Therefor, Cindaquil is the winner of this match!', the referee yelled.

'What?! Evolving is totally legal!', the red-hot Sigmund yelled!

'Not if the Pokémon evolved with a stone or other object.', the referee yelled.

The big screen showed a live image of Cindaquil, of Cindaquil cheering.

'Good job!', Rachel, Jason and Rose yelled at the same time.

I then thought to myself: 'This isn't the way I should win, right?'



Next time, next chapter, a very special chapter: Dragon Special!

[Venasaur89]

That was a pretty cool chapter. Specially at the end, when the trainer tried to evolve its Growlithe.

Good job'

keep it up.......

[Zenith Magus]

PokeRuler/DragonClaw: Are you still looking for "filler" people?

[Conn]

Heh, good chapters.

[Dragon_Claw]

This chapter is Pokémon Tongue, meaning the Pokémon actually speak to eachother, in real words, but the trainers won't understand them (like Island Of The Giant Pokémon)

Dragon Special.

Dratini:

'Looks like somebody is hungry today!', the Dragon Master said.

'Yeah I sure am, what's it going to be today?', I asked the Dragon Master.

'I'm sorry Dratini, but I don't have food for you today.', DM (dragon master) explained.

'It's going to be Magicarp again huh?', I asked DM before jumping in the water.

'Hey Dratini, over here!', I heard Bagon calling.

'Hey Bagon, hows the flying going?', I asked him.

'Don't mess with me, okay? Even tough I'm a Bagon, I'd rather swim then fly, like you. When you're fully evolved, You'll fly, not swim.', the purple little dragon said.

'You don't have it as hard as Trapinch there. She nicknamed herself 'Anti-Dragon', just because she's not even dragon, and she'll never be a pure dragon.', I said.

'Hello? Anybody here?', a boy asked.

'I bet it's another challenger.', a Seadra said.

Trapinch walked up to the boy, and started chewing on his leg. The boy shouted: 'I don't want a ground Pokémon, I want lots of dragons.'

This angered Trapinch even more and she shouted: 'Feel my fury!', and he started biting even harder.

They boy managed to get Trapinch off, and dissappeard. Then DM came walking up. He said: 'Bagon, Dratini, your trainers on the phone!

***

'Look, look! There they are!', I heard my trainer, Brad yelling.

'Yeah, I see Jason now!', the excited purple Bagon said, smiling.

'Look, I think they're recognising us!', Jason smiled.

'I think so too, at least, I hope so!', Brad smiled back.

'So, how have you three been? Speaking of three, where is Alicia?', DM said.

'Alicia went on her own journey, but she said she got back Trapinch.', Jason said.

'I think she has been lying about that, Trapinch is still here, altough a little friendless.', DM replied.

'Maybe she has been lying about her badges too then.', I said confused.

'But you must know, if you ever need your Dragons, you can always get them. But you are too in-experienced for these dragons, so only use them if you don't have any other option.', DM said.

The kids and DM said goodbye, and the dragons went off again.

'Stop him! He stole my Swablu!', a trainer yelled, running after the boy who was attacked by Trapinch.

Then two trainers stood infront of the stealing trainer. I recognized them as Clair and the Dragon Master.

'I'll handle this one!', DM said.

'Hitaro, Don't you think you and Salamence are getting to old to fight?', Clair asked, revealing the Dragon Master's name.

'Salamence and I may have an old body, but our spirit and will is as young as when I was eightteen, and Salamence's as young as when he still was a little Bagon.', Hitaro said.

'Okay, but let me and Kingdra fight too, we need a good challenge once in a while, after beating so many trainers!', Clair yelled excited.

'Go!', they both yelled, while hurling their Pokéballs on the ground.

'Let's do this!', Salamence screeched with Kingdra yelling to response.

'Dragon Rage!', the two dragon trainers yelled.

'Come on out, and let's steal some Pokémon!', the Pokémon thieve yelled.

He threw two Pokéballs on the ground, revealing a Dewgong and a Walrein. 'In the water, dodge their attacks, and fire Ice Beams from there.', the thieve screamed nervously at his Pokémon.

'Maybe you're forgetting that Kingdra is one of the fastest and strongest water type!', Clair laughed.

However Salamence and Kingdra where fast, Dewgong and Walrein still managed to avoid the Dragon Rages. They fired Ice Beams, hitting the two dragon Pokémon.

'I've had enough of this! Twister!', Clair yelled impatiently. Kingdra pointed her head completely above, and she was like a straight line. Kingdra then started spinning and spinning, and she created a whirpool.

'Quickly, get all the Magicarp and other Pokémon to the other pools!', I yelled to the other Pokémon. Hundreds of Horsea, Seadra, about fifty Bagons and Dratitinis appeared, and five Gyarados and Vibrava. The Pokémon able to swim handed the Magicarps to the Bagons, and the Bagons threw them in the other water. The Vibrava picked up the Magicarps, and threw them in the other pools.

'Let's help the Pokémon!', a group of trainers training there yelled. Fearows, Quagsires, Murkrows, Golducks, Lanturns and many more Pokémon helped saving the Magicarps, who weren't even noticing the danger.

'Heeeeeeelp! Heeeeeeeeelp!', I heard. I saw a baby Chinchou swimming away from the whirpool, but the streaming was too fast.

'Ill help!', I yelled at the Chinchou, what put a smile to the tiny Pokémon's face. I grabbed Chinchou with my tail, and threw it towards a Gyarados. The Gyarados took the tiny Pokémon back to shore.

'Oh no, the whirpool is pulling me back myself! Help!', I yelled but I saw no other Pokémon. Then I was lifted higher above, above the water, in the sky. I looked up and saw a beautifull yellow Dragonite.

'Pokémon and their trainers, all alike. First I saved your trainer, now I saved you!', the Dragonite laughed.

'Dragonite, bring Dratini here!', Lance yelled. Dragonite swept down, and put Dratini on the ground. Then Dragonite grabbed Walrein, and threw the Ice/Water Pokémon on the ground. Then Dragonite grabbed Dewgong, who was trying to get away, by the tail. Dragonite started spinning and spinning, for almost two minutes. Dragonite let go of Dewgong, and Dewgong bumped into Walrein, who bumped into the thieve. The two Pokémon and their trainer then blasted off, and the trainer let go of Swablu.

Swablu flew back to it's trainer, and for the rest of the afternoon, every Pokémon but Trapinch, helped to put the Magicarp back to their original lake.

[Conn]

Great chapter!

...Dratini rocked.

[Wizzy]

This was a great chapter!
I think it very original!
Keep up!

[Dragon_Claw]

Chapter 20 - Farewell Hoenn?

'Torkoal, Body Slam!', the trainer yelled.

'Cindaquil, dodge it!', I yelled back. It was my second battle in the fire competition, and I wasn't planning on losing it. Cindaquil got shot back, and I saw the fire on her back weakening.

'Cindaquil, Swift!', I yelled and Cindaquil fired three stars at Torkoal. However, Torkoal was part stone and the Swift wasn't very effective.

'Torkoal, Tackle!', the other trainer yelled. 'Cindaquil, try your tackle too!' Torkoal and Cindaquil ran at eachother, and Cindaquil knocked Torkoal's head with her shoulder. The Pokémon both got shot back.

'Cindaquil, are you allright?', I asked. Cindaquil was exhausted, and shook her head. 'Alright Cindaquil, come back!'

Cindaquil ran to me, and Torkoal and it's trainer where pronounced as winners. 'It's alright Cindaquil.', I assured Cindaquil, who started to climb on my shoulder.

Rachel:

'I'm sorry you didn't win.', I said and I patted Cindaquil on her head. 'Cindaaaa!', she replied.

'Don't worry, can't win em all!', Jason assured me. 'Besides, it's no wonder you lost.'

'Don't say he's so bad Jason!', I said and I punched Jason on his shoulder.

'He's not. The guy with the Torkoal lives here, and he's been Fire Competition Champion for three years in a row.', Rose said.

***

Brad:

'Quil!'

'Cookie!'

'Treeck!'

'Bay...Bay!'

All my Pokémon where eating while I was thinking about the match. That Torkoal was so tough. The match only lasted for what, three minutes.

I grabbed a cookie from my bagback that my mother stuffed in my bagback. However, this was a while ago so they where knd of soggy. 'Oh well.', and I put it in my mouth.

Then the phone rang. I walked over to it, and it was my grandma.

'Hiya grannie!', I yelled excited.

'Hello? Is this Brad? Oh, hello Brad. How are you?', she asked.

'I'm allright. Just lost a battle but my Pokémon and I are over it. How's things going with you? And how's mom? Talked to her?', I asked.

'That's the reason I called you. It wasn't easy getting this number. But about your mother. Brad, listen carefully. Your mother had a heart attack.', grannie spoke.

Then, everything wen't black. I swallowed, and dropped the phone. My Pokémon ran at me, and gathered around me. They tried snapping me out of my confusion, but they didn't succeed. Then Krabby couldn't resist, and pinched me in the ***. I snapped out of it, and grabbed the phone.

'A heart...', I swallowed. 'A heart attack?', I asked her.

'Yes, I'm afraid so. The doctors said it might be because of her stress. You and your mother might need to move to another country. It's full of islands and it has a nice and warm climate. It has a Leauge. I don't know everything about it yet, but you might want to come back. Call me with your decision, and if you want to come back I'll come and take you home.', She said, before hanging up.

I put down the phone, and Jason and Rachel came in. 'What's up?', Jason asked. Then I explained them everything.

'So...Are you quitting the Hoenn adventure?', Jason asked insecure.

'I don't know. Should I?', I asked confused.

'I don't know. Either way, you're giving up alot.', Rose said.

'Maybe I won't become a Champion ever. But if I don't go back home, my mother's status could worsen.'

'Rose and I will go, but when you decide let us know.', Rachel said, and the girls walked off, and Jason and I went to bed.

This was the stunning 20th chapter of 'Becoming A Hoenn Master'. After Brad's mom having a heart attack, will Brad leave the region of Hoenn and move to other islands. If so, will he enter that leauge? What do you think, or better yet, what do you hope?

[Venasaur89]

gr8

that was a awedsome chapter, probably the best .

I think he will go back home because ur parents r important than anything else.

[Conn]

So, the last chapter of becoming a Hoenn master?

Great chapter, too.

[pokemonrule13]

I have read all your chapters and they are all really good. But the last one you did chapter 20 was a little short. It had good description though. I hope he continues on to become a master in hoenn.

[ralts_mudkip]

I hope that his mom makes a complete recovery, and that brad gets to continue on his adventure, cause if he has to move to the other islands and that's the end of the story, then this would make out to be a very bad fan fic. ;p and now for some nit picking:

Torkoal is not part rock,

Treecko can not learn Leaf Blade, it has to evolve into Grovile first,

Chikorita can't learn Leaf Blade at all,

i think that Nosepass should have got a chance to use Rock Tomb,

and last but not least: Rock type pokemon are not imune to eletric attacks!!! ground types are.

Oh, yah and i don't think you develop your characitors enogh.

(looks like a chance t have my characitor in this fan fic is out of the question. ;o )

In 'Tracey's quest' a mudkip is part ground, but I don't hear anybody complain about that.

In the anime you see Pokémon use moves they can't even peform.

And I wish that Pikachu would stop using Thunderbolt, so we're even.

It is my fic, so I decide that here.

They only got one badge, give me a little time to do that.

If you don't like my fic, please just don't read it.

[ralts_mudkip]

I'm sorry... I was rather rude wasn't i? I'm still enjoying your fan fic thogh.

Chapter 21 - The decision

Jason:

'Oh no, Numel!', I yelled. I saw Numel there on the floor, and Magmar and his trainer laughing. Then it struck me, I lost.

***

'At least we can go to the Mauville gym again.', Brad was trying to cheer me up.

'I guess so. Besides, a badge is much better then some trophy.', Jason said.

'Yeah, so let's get on our way again.', Brad said, dissappointed.

'By the way, are you going to your mother?', Jason asked Brad.

'No, she's doing much better. Only if it gets worse, then I'll leave. I already told this to grandma.', Brad replied.

***

After walking for some hours, Brad, Jason, Rachel and Rose got to a beautifull park.

'What's this?', Rose asked.

Rachel walked over to a board and said: 'The sign says it's a golf course. But not for people, but for Pokémon!'

The gang all laughed. 'Let's go and take a look!', Jason said excited.

'Welcome to the Pokémon Golf Course. Would you like to enter the tournament?', a man behind the counter asked.

'We don't have any golf clubs.', Brad said.

'That's okay. You get golf clubs to lend. The trainer of the Pokémon if the caddy. If you win, you get the latest golf cart.', the man said smiling. 'Would you like to enter?'

'I'm not, it seems boring!', Brad said.

'I will use Makuhita, it doesn't look boring to me.!', Jason yelled excited.

'I would enter, but I can't use anybody.', Rachel said sad.

'Yes you can. Take back Bellossom, I already caught a Vulpix.', Rose said, handing back Bellossom's Pokéball.

'Thanks. Then I'll use Bellossom.', Rachel said.

'I'm going shopping, I'll come and check on you guys later.', Rose said.

***

Rose:

'Wow, what a darling dress, I must get that!', I said talking to the girl behind the counter. I looked at the shiny red dress.

'It's made out of satin.', the girl said. 'Okay, I take it!', I said happy.

I paid and but the dress in a plastic bag. I let Vulpix out of her Pokéball, and noticed she only had three tails. 'You're very young, aren't you?', I asked Vulpix. 'Vuuuuuul!', she replied.

***

'Get your stones right here! Every stone in existance here!', a boy screamed walking with a basket full with stones.

'Wow, a pretty nice glowing red stone with a flame inside!', I said when I looked at the stones.

'The fire stone, yes, and a pretty one too.', the boy said.

'I'll have one.', I said, while handing him the money. I then put the fire stone in my bag, and I went on, with Vulpix right behind me.

***

'Brad:

'You wanna battle?', I asked a man with a human-shape Pokémon.

I pointed my Pokédex at the funky-haired Pokémon, and the Pokédex said: 'Mr. Mime, the mime Pokémon. With the special dots on it's hands it can create barriers and lightscreens. This Pokémon isn't good at fighting, but it can defend great using it's walls. This is a psychic Pokémon.'

'I beg your pardon? I'm going to put in a minute. I can't deal with rif-raf like you.', the man said, before walking away.

'Do you want to battle?', I asked a man with a Magmar.

'No I'm sorry, I don't have time for the likes of you.', the man said.

'Jason!', I yelled, while running to Jason. 'Nobody wants to battle!'

'Then go to the kiddy room, there are kids with Pokémon.', Jason said. 'Gotcha!', I said before running off.

***

'Anybody wants to battle?', I asked when I arrived there.

'Yes, I will battle you.', a kid of my age said. 'Halfpipe!', he yelled, and the room turned into a halfpipe.

'I choose Treecko!', I yelled while hurling Treecko's Pokéball on the floor.

'My Pokémon is Golem!', the snobby kid yelled while throwing a Heavy Ball on the ground.

'Let's see!', I said, scanning Golem with my dark-red Pokédex.

The Pokédex said: 'Golem, the mega ton Pokémon. This Pokémon's hard body is capable of living threw exlosions. During earthquakes this Pokémon will come rolling down mountains all at once. This is a Rock/Ground Pokémon.

'Golem, Rollout!', the boy yelled. Golem started rolling up and down, and started rolling with an incredible speed.

'Treecko, Steel Tail.', I yelled. Treecko smashed Golem back, but Golem continued on rolling.

'Treecko, evade!', I yelled panicking. Treecko jumped to the right, and then to the left. 'Keeping to evade isn't going to win this battle! Golem, keep going!', the boy yelled.

'No it's not! Treecko, Leaf Blade!', I yelled. Treecko tried to slash with his sharp leaves, but Golem evaded it. The leaves dried and fell off, crumbling to nothing.

Treecko started to glow a shiny color of white, and started growing. He grew taller and got a long leave on his head, three leaves under each hand, and a tail made of two long leaves. The white color dimmed, and the leaves where dark-green.

'Grovyle!', it yelled. Golem rolled down again, and Grovyle just stood there, two hands pointing forward. Golem hit Grovyle's hands, and Grovyle lifted Golem in the air. Grovyle threw Golem in the air, and he hit a metal pipe. Golem fainted, and the trainer recalled Golem.

'Nice fight.', he complimented.

'Thanks.', I said smiling. I recalled my new Grovyle. The red beam hit Grovyle, and Grovyle turned into small red particles, and then went inside the Pokéball.

***

Then the gang all got back together, just in time for the prizes to be given to the golvers.

'And the first prize goes to...Jason and his Makuhita!', a man yelled. Jason walked up and recieved a ticket. The man said: 'With this ticket, you can get a golfcart with a radio in it. Go to the electric store in Mauville city. If you hand the ticket in there, you get a golf cart with room for four persons.'

Another man walked up to Jason and said: 'Hello. I was wondering, would you please want to trade your Makuhita?', the man said.

'It depends for what.', Jason replied.

'for my Kangaskhan. Kangaskhan is a strong normal type body, that raison young Pokémon in it's pouch. This one doesn't has a child though.', the man said.

'sure.', Jason said.

After trading, Brad asked Jason: 'Shouldn't you have told him about Makuhita thinking it is a Pikachu?'

'No, I really want this Kangaskhan.', he said laughing.

'By the way, how was things with you?', Jason asked Brad.

'Treecko evolved into Grovyle!', Brad said excited.

'Congratulations!', Jason said.

'Let's go walking towards Mauville again.', Rose and Rachel said at the exact time.

Chapter 22 - A shocking match

'So? Who's going first?', Brad asked Jason, standing before the Gym.

'You go first. I'm going to get that golf cart.', Jason said.

'I'm going back to my grandma and grandpa. I guess this is the end of my journey with you guys.', Rose whispered.

'Goodbye. If we ever come back to Mauville, we'll be sure to pay you a visit.', Rachel said.

Rachel, Jason and Brad said farewell to Rose, and Rachel and Brad went inside the Gym.

'Hello trainers. Wattson is the Gym Leader of Mauville City. He battles using his electric Pokémon. To get to him, you have to dodge the electric beams shooting from the walls.', Trainer Fan Toby said.

***

'Dodge!', Rachel yelled as a electric beam was coming towards me.

Brad dodged the electric beam, but a second one hit me in the knee. I fell on the ground, worn out. A man appeared. The man was rather fat, with short white hair and a big white beard. He had a big smile on his face. He said: 'You can quit, but then you can't battle me.

'So, you're the Gym Leader Wattson?', Brad asked.

'Yes. Do you wish to continue?', he asked.

'Yeah, yeah I will!', Brad said confident. Bayleaf jumped out of her Pokéball, yelling her name. She lifted Brad on her back using her vines.

'Bayleaf, will you carry me to Wattson?', Brad asked his female grass Pokémon. 'Bay Bay!', Bayleaf yelled.

'Remember, Electric moves aren't very effective against Grass types, so Bayleaf will be able to make it threw.

Bayleaf got hit by 2 electrical beams, but she still managed to walk on. After five minutes and six electric beams we got to the fighting arena. Bayleaf fell to the ground, worn out.

'Bayleaf, it's okay, you can rest now.', Brad said aiming the orange light from Bayleaf's Luxury Ball at the Aroma Pokémon.

'Come forward girl, the electricity beams are switched off.', Wattson said, and Rachel came forward.

'And now, let's battle!', Brad said, trying to look like Ash Ketchum in his gym episodes.

***

'The match is played without a time limit and both trainers can use two Pokémon. A withdrawel is concidered a loss. Trainers, begin!', the referee yelled.

'Voltorb, I choose you!', Wattson yelled. As he threw out a Pokéball, the Pokémon that was inside came out. This Pokémon was just like a Pokéball, but then with two eyes, and they weren't friendly looking. Brad pointed his Pokédex at the Pokéball-like Pokémon.

The Pokédex said: 'Voltorb, the Pokéball Pokémon. After discovering new material for the Pokéballs, people started making Pokéballs with this Pokémon as design. This Pokéball began to grow more populair then the apricorn Pokéballs. However, this Pokémon isn't too populair because people rather have an organic Pokémon.

Brad:

'Grovyle, go!', I said, as I threw the Pokéball containing my newly-evolved Grass Pokémon. 'Grovyle!', my velociraptor Pokémon screeched.

'Voltorb, Rollout!', the white haired tubby named Wattson yelled.

'Grovyle, Quick Attack!', I yelled quickly. Grovyle threw his body against Voltorb's, and the Pokémon both fell on the ground.

'Voltorb, Thundershock!', Wattson yelled. I could see this Pokémon had more experience, because for a Grass Type Pokémon, Grovyle sure took a lot of damage.

I knew I had to come with a plan. 'Wait a second, isn't this Pokémon known that if he gets hit too much, he uses explosion?', I thought to myself. 'Yeah, I've got it. Grovyle, use Leaf Blade on the floor to make a big hole!', I yelled excited.

Grovyle's six leaves, three on each hand, started to grow really big and sharp, and with about ten slashes, a 2 meter hole appeared in the ground. 'Now, Grovyle, use Iron Tail to throw Voltorb in the hole!', I yelled, not trying to sound mean.

Grovyle jumped behind Voltorb, and swung his now metal coloured tail against Voltorb, making him roll into the hole. Voltorb started charging energy, and he blew himself up. But the explosion didn't come above the hole, so Grovyle was the winner of the first round.

'Alright, I can win this!', I yelled excited.

'Don't get your hopes up. This Pokémon will be too much for you to handle...', Wattson said with a grin on his face, clenshing a Pokéball with a lighting beam on it...

[ralts_mudkip]

Yay! An up date! I can't wait to see what hapens next (jumps up and down expectantly) Oh yes and can you give Wattson's pokemon a chance to use Shockwave? (a never miss Electric attack)

[Conn]

I like the chapter. Is Minun/Plusle coming out next?

[Venasaur89]

Gr8 chapter!

Keep it up.......

Chapter 23 - A Shocking Match II

'This one, you can't defeat!', Wattson said, throwing his Lighting Ball on the ground.

A mouse-like Pokémon with red cheeck, a big tail and long ears appeared. 'Pika!', it said.

'Hmmm, let's check the Pokédex.', I mumbled.

'Pikachu, the mouse Pokémon. This Pokémon uses electrical attacks to frie berries in the wild. This Pokémon is fast but not so strong, and is often used as pets for especially girls. However, Pikachus with experience can be very strong. This is an electric-type Pokémon.', the Pokédex spoke with his metallic like voice.

'Okay Grovyle, Quick Attack!', I yelled at my wood gecko Pokémon.

'Pikachu, counter with your own Quick Attack!', Wattson yelled. Both Pokémon jumped against eachother with their shoulder forward, and because Grovyle was much bigger Pikachu fell back.

'Pikachu, Thunder Shock!', Wattson yelled.

'Grovyle, use your Mega Drain.', I said. I didn't knew if Grovyle knew this attack, I just saw this attack standing while I searched info about his first form, Treecko.

Grovyle's Mega Drain was pretty good. He drained the energy he lost by the Thunder Shock right back. Both Pokémon got pretty tired, Wattson and I could both see that.

'Grovyle, Leaf Blade!', I yelled. Wattson got pretty scared of Grovyle's growing Blade. 'Pikachu, Agility!', he yelled. Grovyle tried to hit Pikachu, but Pikachu jumped on Grovyle's head, making Grovyle fall to the ground.

'Pikachu, Iron Tail!' Pikachu's tail turned white, and he hit Grovyle on his back. 'Grovyle, come back!', I yelled with Grovyle's Pokéball in my right hand. a red beam was shot at Grovyle, and Grovyle turned into the same red light. He then disapeared in his Pokéball.

'Don't be down Brad, Grovyle was already tired.', Rachel tried cheering me up.

'Which Pokémon should I use now. Krabby was strong, but he was weak to electric attacks. Grovyle was out ofcourse, so my choise was between Cindaquil and Bayleaf. Bayleaf could be already tired, and Iron Tail could be hard to handle.', I thought to myself.

'I...I made my choise, and it is...Bayleaf!', I yelled, throwing Bayleaf's Luxury Ball on the ground.

'What?! Are you crazy? Bayleaf had to carry you and get hit by the electric beams. Plus Iron Tail could take her out!', Rachel screamed.

'I know, but I trust Bayleaf.', I said, smiling at Bayleaf.

'Too bad, trust just isn't good enough!', Wattson yelled laughing. 'Pikachu, Quick Attack!'

'Bayleaf, Razor Leaf!', I yelled at Bayleaf. But Bayleaf missed with all three leaves, and Pikachu threw Bayleaf to the ground.

'I said you should have chosen Cindaquil! Bayleaf is too tired!', Rachel yelled from the back.

I checked the Pokédex for some of Bayleaf's attacks. The Pokédex said: 'Tackle, Growl, Razor Leaf, Reflect, Synthesis, Poison Powder, Body Slam, Light Screen, Safequard and Solarbeam'

'What? Synthesis? What's that?', I tought to myself. I pressed Synthesis on my Pokédex.

'Synthesis, used by only a few Grass type Pokémon. This is a Grass type move. When using this attack, this Pokémon recovers energy. How much it restores, depends on the surroundings. How cleaner it is, the more it restores'

'Okay Bayleaf! Synthesis!', I yelled. Bayleaf started glowing green, and after the green light disappeared, it left Bayleaf almost fully healed.

'Yes, Mauville uses green energy, and is one of the cleanest cities in Hoenn.', Wattson said proudly. 'Oh wait, Pikachu, another Quick Attack, that seemed to work well!', Wattson continued. Pikachu quickly dove from left to right, from right to left, and like that he raced forwards.

'Quickly Bayleaf, Body Slam!', I yelled at Bayleaf. Bayleaf belly-landed on Pikachu, and Pikachu's head and tail came from below Bayleaf, nothing else. 'Pikachu, Agility!', Wattson yelled. And Pikachu ran away from under Bayleaf.

'Pikachu, climb on Bayleaf and use Shockwave!', Wattson yelled. Pikachu ran at Bayleaf, and jumped on her leaf, which was standing on her head. Pikachu started using Shockwave, and Bayleaf fell threw her for-knees.

'Bayleaf, listen carefull. Use Razor Leaf pointing at the wall!', I spoke clearly. Bayleaf did this, and Pikachu was sitting on one of the leaves. Pikachu got smacked against the wall. 'Bayleaf, quickly before he falls down, use Body Slam!', I yelled.

Bayleaf Body Slammed Pikachu even further in the wall. 'Should we continue, or are you wise enough to give up?', I asked Wattson.

'You are right, Pikachu, return!', Wattson said while his Thunder Ball was absorbing Pikachu. 'You are a better trainer then I am. Take this.', Wattson said while handing me a silver card and a badge. I looked at the TM card. It said: 'Electricity Swift.' 'Huh? Electricity Swift? Never heard of it.', I said, putting the card in my bag. 'No, I made it myself, and then it got approved by the official Pokémon Leauge Federation. Your Pokémon shoots three swift stars, bursting with electricity. This attack never misses.', he said.

Rachel ran towards me and hugged me. I was amazed but then she said: 'Uh, sorry. Good job though.' We walked outside and saw Jason sitting in a golf cart. He had a big smile on his face and said: 'let's go to the PokéCentre.' 'Yeah, we can sleep their.', Rachel said laughing.

We sat in the golf cart, and the engine spun like a Skitty. Then Jason broke the silence and said: 'By the way, got any tips to beat Wattson?', after I told him I won my second badge. 'Are you sure you want them?', I asked him. 'No, never mind. I would feel better just finding out myself.', Jason said. And we continued driving towards the PokéCentre.

[Conn]

Shockwave WAS used!

'Pikachu, climb on Bayleaf and use Shockwave!', Wattson yelled. Pikachu ran at Bayleaf, and jumped on her leaf, which was standing on her head. Pikachu started using Shockwave, and Bayleaf fell threw her for-knees.
