I Wanna Be The Very Best! Scene: Its morning and Wigglytuff, Adelaide, and Pikachu are playing tag. Aeva and Ash are asleep with their arms around each other, Tracey is snoring, Uschi has her eyes open but isn’t moving, and Misty is waking up. The fire is out: only small amounts of smoke remain. Narrator: Along with our heroes are now Aeva, a fire Pokčmon Master, and Uschi, a water Pokčmon Master, and their Wigglytuffs. After some horrifying tales and a great sleep, the five of them continue their journey on Aquarius Island, where a Pokčmon contest awaits. Ash: {introducing title} I Wanna Be The Very Best! Pikachu is now ‘It’ and is chasing after Adelaide and Wigglytuff. Pikachu: Pik Pikachu chu! Wigglytuff: No you won't! Pikachu smirked and used its agility and tagged Wigglytuff. She turned around and began to chase the others. Wigglytuff: Come here! Ugh! She ran to catch them, but tripped on Aeva’s long legs and fell right on top of her and Ash, which caused them to wake up. They opened their eyes and didn’t bother to get up. Wigglytuff: Hehe. Sorry. Aeva: (sleepily) Its ok. Wigglytuff: We were playing tag and I tripped. You and Ash can go back to sleep. Just don’t get too close! She giggled and ran away. Aeva turned around to realize Ash had fallen asleep again with his arm around her. She sat up and watched his arms flop to the ground. Aeva: (softly) Ash… Ash… He wouldn’t awaken, so she shook him. His eyes opened and he saw her in all of her beauty glistening in the morning sunlight. He smiled. Aeva: I think we better get up. Ash: Okay. The slowly got on their feet and looked around. The Pokčmon were still frolicking around, and Uschi saw them get up. While their backs were turned, She threw a pillow at them. They were knocked over and they fell on top of each other. They laughed and threw their own pillows at her. Wigglytuff, Pikachu, and Adelaide saw the friendly quarrel and grabbed their own miniature pillows to join in the fun. They fought for a while, and Tracey and Misty were hit with so many flying pillows that they eventually woke up laughing. They sat up and pulled the others down onto their sleeping. They all sat laughing for a minute. Uschi: I’m going to enter my Pokčmon in the contest today. Are you guys going to? Aeva: Of course! I have a reputation to maintain! Uschi: What reputation? Aeva: I won last week. Uschi: Oh, yeah. Well, at least it inflated your ego a bit more. Aeva: Hey! Ash: A contest? Wow! What kind? Uschi: It’s based on points. Whoever has the most points at the end wins. There are 4 events. The first is judged by how healthy your Pokčmon are. The next is your Pokčmon’s speed. The third is speed and accuracy, and the final is speed, accuracy, and power. Aeva: And I automatically get 50 points because I won last week. She smiled. Ash turned to Pikachu. Ash: Ya up to it, Pikachu? Pikachu: Pika! Tracey: What Pokčmon are you going to use, Uschi? Uschi: My favorite Pokčmon, Jolteon! Its suprisingly powerful. I’m also going to use my Gengar. Tracey: Yeah… Aeva: Are you going to compete, Misty? Misty obviously wasn’t paying attention. She jumped at the mention of her name. Misty: Huh? No. I think I’m just going to watch. Uschi: Are you sure? Misty: Yeah. Uschi: Ok… Aeva: Can we quickly stop at the Pokčmon Center? I want to get my Rapidash out of Professor Elm’s PC. Tracey: No problem! The five of them walked to the nearest Pokčmon Center, which was about five minutes away. Aeva went over to the computer and turned it on. The screen flicked on and a menu appeared. She went to the first option, which was Pokčmon PCs. Another list came up, and it contained professors’ names. She went down to the third name on the list, Professor Elm. She typed in her name and password waited for the screen to upload. While she was waiting, she took her Nidoking’s pokčball and placed it in the machine next to the computer. The screen finished loading and she clicked on the picture of her Rapidash. Nidoking’s pokčball glowed with a strange white light and dematerialized. A few moments later, another pokčball came in its place. Aeva grabbed it and shut down the PC. Aeva: I got my Rapidash. Let’s go. Uschi: The contest starts in an hour, so we better hurry if the three of us want to reserve spots in the competition. Ash: Then let’s go! Ash ran out the door, followed by the other four. It took them approximately 20 minutes to reach the unofficial Pokčmon Gym. The entered and saw several Pokčmon trainers wondering about. Ash, Tracey, and Misty stood still until Uschi spoke up. Uschi: This way. She pointed to a small booth where Officer Jenny was. They went over and observed the clipboard. Ash checked to see if Gary was on it, and, to his benefit, he wasn’t. Ash sighed happily. Officer Jenny: Are you five here to enter the competition? Misty: Oh, no! Tracey and I aren’t going to. Ash stepped forward. Ash: I am, and I’m going to win! Officer Jenny: Well, you can enter right here. Simply write down your name, Pokčmon license number, and the two Pokčmon you’ll be using. Ash grabbed the pen and signed the papers. Ash: (mumbling to himself) Name…Ash…Ketchem. He stuck his hand in his pocket and pulled out a small, crumpled piece of paper. He laid it on the table in a feeble attempt to flatten it out. He turned back to the clipboard and began to write again. Ash: (mumbling to himself) Pokčmon… license…number…Pallet…. A…. K…. 9…. 0… 5… 7… 8. (Normally) Okay. Now for my Pokčmon. (Mumbling to himself) Pikachu… Squirtle. Ash stood up and turned to the rest of his group. Ash: Okay! I’m all signed up! Officer Jenny: Please hand me your… She looks at the clipboard quickly. Officer Jenny: (continuing) Pikachu and Squirtle. Ash: Why? Officer Jenny: We have to ensure that you don’t cheat. Ash: Okay… Pikachu hopped up onto the desk as Ash grabbed a pokčball. Pikachu reluctantly returned into its pokčball with a red glow. Ash tore another pokčball off of his pokčbelt and handed it, along with Pikachu’s pokčball, to Officer Jenny. Officer Jenny: Thank you. Aeva went over and filled out the necessary information and pulled two pokčballs off of her own belt and handed them over to the police officer. She pulled a small badge out of her pocket and resented it to Officer Jenny, who glanced at it. Officer Jenny: I’ll be sure to inform the judges that 50 points have to be added to your final score. Uschi was up next. She quickly wrote in her name, Pokčmon license number, and her Pokčmons’ names. Subsequently, she took 2 pokčballs off of her belt and placed them in Officer Jenny’s hands. Officer Jenny: Thank you and good luck to you all! The five-some went out the door in the back to reveal an outdoor stadium with a racetrack circling the field. In the center were several rocks with targets on them. Many trainers were wondering about. Two trainers passed by-- a boy and a girl. Boy: Hey Aeva! Hey Uschi! Girl: Good luck! Trying to win again? Aeva: Well, we can hope! Uschi: We can win, too! They all laughed and waved goodbye as the duo walked away. Ash: Who are they? Uschi: They competed last week. Ash: Oh... Tracey looked at his watch and then glanced up at the group. Tracey: There’s about 10 minutes until the first event starts. I think you three had better get out on the field with the other trainers. Good luck! Misty: Good luck, guys! Ash, Aeva, and Uschi: Thanks! The three of them walked to the center of the field, where about 5 other trainers stood. They walked off to the right of the others and Ash stood next to another boy, who was a few years older. He turned to Ash and made a face. Boy: Huh. This competition is getting easier and easier. Squirt, I’m gonna cream you SO easily. Ash: Hey! I care for my Pokčmon and know they can win! Boy: No one can win against me. Aeva and Uschi heard this and turned to him. Aeva: I beat you last week, Ben, and I can do it again. Ash respects his Pokčmon, and he can beat you easier than I did. Ben turns red in embarrassment and growls. Uschi: And you treat your Pokčmon terribly! Pokčmon are your friends, not your slaves! Ben: You train your Pokčmon too poorly. You need to discipline them so they can win. And besides, I still have my good looks to pull me through. Aeva gagged at that comment. Ben growled at them, and Ash, Aeva, and Uschi growled back. They glared at Ben as if it was some kind of staring contest. Fire was in more than Aeva’s clothing— it was in all of their eyes. Officer jenny, who handed everyone their two pokčballs, interrupted their argument. An announcer’s voice blared over the loudspeaker, which forced everyone to cover his or her ears. Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen welcome to the weekly Pokčmon Special Abilities Contest. This is the chance to prove your Pokčmon’s real strength. This competition consists of four rounds. The points in each round will be split up into two because of the two Pokčmon each trainer uses. Round one has the judges measure the trainer’s Pokčmon’s health. That is worth 100 points. Round two is a speed test. Pokčmon will be lined up for a half-mile run. That round is worth 200 points. The third round measures speed and accuracy, where targets pop up and Pokčmon are to hit it with an attack. This is worth 300 points. The fourth and final round involves a Pokčmon’s speed, accuracy, and power. Again, targets will pop up, and Pokčmon are expected to destroy them. This round is worth 500 points. And now for our contestants. First, there is… The announcer mentioned 4 trainers and their Pokčmon. Announcer: (continuing) …Contestant number 5 is Ben Jones, a local trainer, who’ll be using his Electrode and Dodrio. Contestant number 6 is Ash Ketchem, from Pallet town. He recently competed in the Indigo League and is now competing in the Orange League. His Pokčmon will be Pikachu and Squirtle. Contestant number 7 will be last week’s winner, Aeva from New Bark Town. Aeva smiled and waved to the audience. Announcer: (continuing) She’s a Pokčmon master and is competing in the Orange League. Her Pokčmon will be Rapidash and Charizard, a tough combo to beat. And our last, but definitely not least, contestant is Uschi, also from New Bark Town. She’s also a Pokčmon master that is competing in the Orange League. She chose to use her Jolteon and Gengar. Now, good luck to you all! Officer Jenny: Will all the contestants please come over to the judges’ table to have their Pokčmon examined. All of the trainers let their Pokčmon out of their pokčballs, and the gym was filled with red light as the Pokčmon emerged. There was a cacophony of sound from the various Pokčmon calls. The trainers formed a line in their numerical order. Their Pokčmon stood next to them. Ash turned to Pikachu. Ash: The judges are just gonna make sure you’re healthy, Pikachu. Try not to shock them, okay? Pikachu blushed and put his arm behind his head. Pikachu: Pikachu. Announcer: Now for round one. Pokčmon will be checked for physical injuries, be massaged, and checked for pulse, reaction, and a few minor things. The first kid had a Slowpoke, who failed the reaction test terribly. Pretty soon, it was Ben’s turn to have his Pokčmon examined. His Electrode got a perfect score, but his Dodrio only got 10 points, for it had several whip marks on its back. Afterwards, he turned to Ash. Ben: I don’t need this section to win. He walked away and Ash went up to the judges. Pikachu hopped on the table and they came over to him and felt his cheeks, gave him a massage, and checked a few other things. During the massage, Pikachu looked full of elation. Pikachu: (happily) Pikachu! Judge: Your Pikachu is well above average, Ash. You should be proud. Ash: I am! When Pikachu was finished he hopped into Ash’s arms and Squirtle went through the same tests. Ash received the full 100 points for this round. Aeva was up next. They checked out her Rapidash, then her Charizard. Uschi was after her, and her Jolteon and Gengar were checked. It was very difficult for them to check out Gengar, for it was a ghost and kept dematerializing while they tried to get his pulse. In the end, both girls got a perfect score for that round. Officer Jenny: Thank you all. Now, will all of the first set of Pokčmon please line up on the track? The Pokčmon did so and the trainers moved to the center, along with the Pokčmon that didn’t compete yet. Aeva pet her Charizard, Ash hugged Pikachu, and Uschi praised her Jolteon. Ben screamed at his Dodrio. Ben: You better win! If you don’t, you won’t get dinner! Ash: Gr… he makes me so mad. He shouldn’t treat his Pokčmon like that! Announcer: Now for the first part of Round Two. On your mark… get set… GO! A shot was heard when the announcer said go. All of the Pokčmon took off. After about a second, Aeva’s Rapidash was leading, followed by Gengar and Squirtle. Electrode was rolling along, and he tried to roll into Gengar to stop him. Luckily, it went right through him. Gengar continued to run until it got tired. It began to float in the air. Whenever it reached another Pokčmon, it simply floated right through it. Ash: Wow, Uschi! Your Gengar sure has an advantage! Uschi: Now you know why I chose it. In the end, Rapidash won by a nose, or horn, rather. Squirtle and Gengar tied for second, and Electrode came in third. After all of the Pokčmon finished running, they cleared the track and the others replaced them. Tracey, Misty, Wigglytuff, and Adelaide were in the stands waving banners and paper fans with the faces of Aeva, Ash, and Uschi on them. Wigglytuff: Aeva, Aeva! You’re the girl! You’ll beat ‘em fast- their heads’ll whirl! Adelaide: I studied physics! Jolteon has great velocity! Misty: Go Ash! Tracey: You can do it, guys! The trio heard the cheers and smiled. Announcer: On your mark…get set… GO! The next set of Pokčmon was off. Charizard flew over the track, and its powerful, majestic wings blew away some of the competition. Jolteon and Pikachu were right beneath it. Soon, Ben’s Dodrio approached them. The two electric Pokčmon used their agility to gain the lead. This confused Dodrio, and their heads began to peck at each other. Ben was screaming and threatening from the side. Charizard soon realized it was being beaten, so it flew even faster. In the end, they needed a picture to determine who the winner was. It was declared Pikachu and Jolteon were even, so they made first place. Charizard came in second, and another trainer’s Starmie came in third. One girl was disqualified because her Dugtrio tried to create an earthquake during the race. Ash ran up to Pikachu and gave him a hug. Ash: You were terrific, Pikachu! Pikachu: (panting) Pika…pika...chu! Announcer: Now for Round Three. The contestant’s Pokčmon will use attacks to hit targets that will be popping out on the field. Officer Jenny: Will contestant number one’s Rattata please step onto the field? All of the Pokčmon competed. When it was Ben’s turned, he did suprisingly well. He got the full 300 points. Ash was next, and Pikachu and Squirtle did fantastically, also getting the full 300 points. Ash: That gym test with Sissy really paid off, huh, Squirtle? Squirtle: Squirtle! Aeva was up next, and Rapidash and Charizard used their ember attacks to hit the targets. Her Rapidash missed one, so she only got 290 points for that round. Uschi’s Jolteon and Gengar were able to finish with a perfect score, also. Announcer: And that’s it for Round Three. Now, there will be a short break in which the competing Pokčmon will get a chance to rest. Currently, Aeva is in first place with an amazing 615 points. Uschi is in second, with 575 points. And Ash Ketchem is in third place, with 550 points. Ben: I can’t believe I’m being beaten by little Shrimp-o! Mumbling some foul words, he walked off to get a drink. Misty and Tracey ran up to Ash, Aeva, and Uschi and showered them in praise. Misty: You’re doing great! Wigglytuff: Your performance is simply sensational, Aeva! You’re sure to win! But be careful. Ash and Uschi are really close to you! Adelaide: I’m so proud of you Uschi! I knew you could do it. Aeva: You’re doing incredibly for your first time Ash. You’re a marvelous trainer. Ash blushed and put his arm behind his head. Ash: You really think so? I raised all of my Pokčmon all by myself. Misty pulled out her mallet and knocked him to the ground. Ash: Waa! What was that for?! Misty: If it wasn’t for me and Brock, you never wouldn’t have gotten anywhere! Tracey: Brock? Who’s that? Misty: Just a testoterone-filled friend of ours. We couldn’t take him anywhere…. Tracey: Oh… Outside, Jessi, James, and Meowth floated in their Meowth balloon over the gym. They were looking through their binoculars and were obviously plotting. James: Oh! Look at all of those rare and valuable Pokčmon! Jessi: We’ve got to grab them! Meowth: If we did something right, I might be in good with the boss again! A thought bubble pops up over Meowth’s head and in it, Giovanni is petting him, and he is purring. Meowth sighed as the thought bubble disappeared. Meowth: Come on! Let’s grab those Pokčmon! Back at the stadium, the Pokčmon were returning to their trainers, who were back in the center of the gym. Announcer: And we’re back. This is the fourth and final round, in which Pokčmon will be expected to destroy targets that are popping up. Officer Jenny: Contestant number one, please take your place. The first contestant went, but his Geodude self-destructed while destroying a target. This resulted in his disqualification. Officer Jenny: Self Destruction is against the rules. I’m sorry, but you are not eligible to compete any longer. With his head hanging low, the young trainer walked off the field. The others competed and did fairly well. When it was Ben’s turn, he surprised the crowd by getting the 500 points. After he was finished, he turned to Ash. Ben: See if you can beat that, Shrimp-o. Hahahaha! With that, he walked off. Pikachu was up first, and he crushed the targets with his Thunder and Thunderbolt attacks. When he finished, he was tired, but he got all of the points. Squirtle was next, and he blew away the targets with Water Gun. Ash also got the full 500 points. Ash: Yes! Aeva went up, and her Charizard incinerated the targets very easily. In the middle of her Rapidash’s turn, a giant machine drilled up into the middle of the field. Aeva: Huh? Uschi: What’s happening? Two figures were visible, but they were only a silhouette. Woman: Prepare for trouble! Man: And make it double! Woman: To protect the world from devastation! Man: To unite all peoples within our nation! Woman: To denounce the evils of truth and love! Man: To extend our reach to the stars above! Woman: Jessi! Man: James! Jessi: Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light! James: Surrender now or prepare to fight! Meowth popped up from behind them. Meowth: Meowth! That’s right! Aeva was about to cry. She was so scared all she was able to do was put her hand over her mouth. Jessi: Oh, look. It’s little Aeva. James: Bringing her back would be a bigger reward than getting the Pokčmon! Aeva put her hands over her face and ran off the field. Uschi saw this and ran after her. Uschi: Aeva! No! Jessi and James were about to run after her, but they realized they would never catch up. Ash: Looks like this is all up to me. He turns his hat around and points to Team Rocket. Ash: Go, Pikachu! Pikachu bolted up to them, ready to shock. When he reached them, he jumped up to shock them. But they pulled out a rubber bag and Pikachu flew right into it. Jessi: Hahaha! We got your Pikachu! James: One down, only a few more to go! Jessi and James took out two Pokčballs and hurled them into the air. Jessi: Arbok, go! James: (at the same time as Jessi) Wheezing, go! The two Pokčmon appeared on the ground. Arbok: Chaaar...bok! Charbok! Wheezing: Wheezing! James: Wheezing, Smokescreen! Gas came flowing out of Wheezing and it filled the gym. Everyone was coughing, and they couldn’t see anything. Jessi: Arbok, use Glare and the Pokčmon and wrap the trainers! The snake Pokčmon’s yes began to glow, and soon all of the Pokčmon in the entire gym lost the ability to move. It then slithered around the gym and gathered all of the trainers and Officer Jenny and squeezed them. All of them screamed. Jessi and James jumped down from their drill and captured all of the Pokčmon in nets. The smoke cleared, and Ash was the only one that Arbok hadn’t gotten. He pulled out a pokčball and threw it into the air. Jessi: Arbok, you dumb Pokčmon! You missed the twerp! Ash: I choose you, Bulbasaur! Bulbasaur appeared on the ground with some red light surrounding it. Bulbasaur: Bulbasaur! Ash: Vine Whip Team Rocket! Bulbasaur: Bulbasaur bulb! The two vines emerged from Bulbasaur’s back and hit Team Rocket, who were chased around the gym. James: Ow! Stop it! That hurts! Jessi: You’re ruining my beautiful body! Meowth: Ouch! While Bulbasaur attacked Team Rocket, Ash ran up to the balloon in an attempt to get his beloved Pikachu back. He had almost reached it when Wheezing got in the way. It used Explosion, and Ash was blown away. Ash: Aah! He was very weak, but he managed to pull out a random pokčball. He was too weak to find a good one. Ash: (weakly) Pokčball…go… The pokčball opened and Charizard came out in a fiery rage. He was about to fry Ash when he saw how frail he was. For once, a wave of sympathy passed through the giant lizard’s body. Ash: Charizard, Team Rocket hurt everyone’s Pokčmon and is hurting all of the trainers. You’re our last hope… After that, Ash fell over and went black. Charizard still wasn’t trained, but he knew it was up to him. He had been lying down, but, to everyone’s surprise, he arose and flew around. Wheezing went to attack, but he was burned up by Charizard’s Flamethrower. Jessi and James took advantage of the fact that Bulbasaur was getting tired. They whipped out two pokčballs and threw them. Jessi: Lickitung, go! James: Go, Victreebel! The two Pokčmon came out, and Victreebel shrieked. Subsequently, it picked James up with its mouth and began to make an attempt to eat his head. James: (muffled) No! Stop it! That tickles! Jessi: Lickitung, attack! James: (muffles) Victreebel, attack! The two Pokčmon went over to battle Charizard, but James was still in the plant Pokčmon’s mouth. James began kicking and screaming. James: (at the top of his lungs, but still muffled) No, no! Put me down! Then attack! Reluctantly, Victreebel released its trainer and, along with Lickitung, performed several attacks on Charizard. Many attempts failed, but Lickitung finally used Screech. Charizard became confused, but continued to fight. While the three Pokčmon battled, Team Rocket tried to make their escape with all of the trainer’s Pokčmon. They grabbed the nets and carted them away. After a few minutes, Charizard was free of confusion, but it was to tired. Team Rocket’s Pokčmon were getting very tired, but they all still put up a good fight. Jessi: This is out time to escape! James tried to cackle, but it came out more like an evil giggle. James: This might get us a big promotion! Meowth: Look at all the Pokčmon we’re bringing back! James: Nothing can ruin this! At that very moment, Aeva, still shaking, entered the gym, followed by Uschi. They saw what had happened and threw out two Pokčballs. Quilava and Tentacruel came out. They were surprised at the challenge that awaited them, but were willing to help everyone. Aeva: You set the Pokčmon free. I’ll take care of Team Rocket! Uschi: Sure thing! Uschi headed off to Jessi and James, who were worn out. Tentacruel, with its many tentacles, wrapped the Team Rocket trio with one and freed the Pokčmon with another. In the meantime, Aeva was frying Wheezing, Lickitung, and Victreebel with the help of a very fatigued Charizard. In a short period of time, the foes fainted, all except for Arbok, who remained wrapping the trainers. Quilava and Charizard headed in, but the snake Pokčmon used Poison Sting to keep them away. Both fire Pokčmon were hit, but they fought the poison. As Charizard was about to use Flamethrower, Quilava intervened. If he tried to hit Arbok, he would also hurt the trainers. They sat for a minute, but Quilava made a sudden move. It used Cut continuously, and their enemy was weakening. Charizard got the idea, roared, and began to Slash Arbok. Eventually, he released his grip, screaming in pain. Arbok: Char! Char! Charbok! The trainers ran over to the center and watched Aeva and Uschi. While Charizard returned to its pokčball, Aeva glanced over at Uschi and saw all of the Pokčmon had been freed. Uschi held Pikachu’s bag in her hand. She put it on the ground and he ran out of it and over to Ash, who was laid unconscious. Pikachu looked at his best friend’s calm body and laid on top of it while weeping. Pikachu: (crying) Pi...ka...chu…pi...ka...chu… Aeva gave Uschi thumb-up. Aeva: Bulbasaur, use your Sleep Powder on Team Rocket! Bulbasaur, who had collapsed, came stood up and used the last of its energy to cover Team Rocket with a delicate powder. Their eyed instantly began getting heavier and they yawned. Tentacruel looked around and saw that all of the Pokčmon were paralyzed. Uschi: Use Haze! It lifted its tentacles and a great fog surrounded everyone. It cleared quickly, and the Pokčmon began to move again. Tracey, Misty, Uschi, and Aeva ran to Ash. Aeva and Misty bent down next to him, and Pikachu sat on his chest. Soon the fog reached Ash and he began to come to. Misty and Aeva were leaning in very close to him, each of them grabbing one of his hands. Slowly, he opened his eyes, but the two girls were so close to him that they where all he could see. Misty: Oh, Ash! Aeva: I’m so glad you’re okay! They both gave him a big hug. He smiled and blushed. Ash: I could get used to waking up like this! Everyone laughed. Uschi then grabbed a pokčball and held it out. Uschi: Tentacruel, return! It went back into its pokčball; Ash rose and noticed Team Rocket, who were barely awake. Ash: (yelling) Officer Jenny! Take them away, or they’ll try to steal our Pokčmon and kill Aeva! Officer Jenny made her way through the crowd and handcuffed Jessi, James, and Meowth. She carried them away with the help of a few other officers. Jessi: (sleepily) It looks like... James: (yawning) …Team Rocket is… Jessi, James, and Meowth: (barely awake) …is carted of again… Aeva then walked over to a small platform and stood on it after receiving a load of cheers. Ash stood on the ground, as close as he could to her. Aeva: Everyone, you all owe your lives to Ash Ketchem! There was confusion in the crowd. Aeva pulled him up there with her. Aeva: It was his Bulbasaur and Charizard that beat Team Rocket. He risked his life for all of you, and he ended up unconscious. I think we all owe him thanks and a round of applause. While everyone was cheering, Ben pushed through the crowd and over to Ash. His face was stern, but it lightened up as he extended his hand to Ash. They shook hands and Ash smiled. Ben: Great job. Afterwards, he walked off. Officer Jenny, after locking away Team Rocket, returned carrying a trophy. She climbed up onto the platform and faced Ash. She then smiled and handed it to him. Officer Jenny: This is awarded to you, Ash Ketchem, for your great bravery and outstanding Pokčmon skills. With that, Aeva gave him a bear hug in front of everyone. He bushed, and Misty grew angry. Tracey saw this and turned to her. Tracey: Jealous, huh? Misty was at a loss for words. Misty: Ah! Uh…er… no! Of course not! Because her words failed, she whacked him with a mallet and he fell to the pavement. Later that day, they were all walking across the beach. Ash’s trophy was protruding from his backpack, and Quilava followed them. They stopped and began to settle down to set up camp. Aeva turned to her Pokčmon. Aeva: You did a fantastic job today. You creamed Team Rocket! Quilava nodded and began to glow with an eerie white light. Quilava: Quil! Aeva: Huh? The others turned to see what was happening. The white light grew larger and larger and slightly changed its shape. Ash: What’s… happening? Tracey: It’s evolving! Misty: Wow… Finally, Aeva’s Pokčmon ceased its glowing. It stood about 5’6”, just a little shorter than its trainer. They all stood in awe, except for Ash, who pulled out his Pokčdex. Ash: What’s that? Dexter: Typhlosion. The fire blast Pokčmon. The evolved form of Quilava. It uses powerful fire attacks to defeat its enemies. Aeva gave it a big hug as Ash put away his Pokčdex. Wigglytuff and Adelaide crowded around him, too. Adelaide: Congratulations, Quil—I mean Typhlosion. Wigglytuff had rivers of anime tears flowing down its cheeks. Wigglytuff: I’m so happy for you! With that, the balloon Pokčmon threw its arms around it. Narrator: Well, Ash won first place in a Pokčmon contest, Quilava evolved into Typhlosion, and Team Rocket was defeated once more. As our heroes travel on, their relationships strengthen. Who knows what’s in store for them tomorrow, though? TO BE CONTINUED…. |
