Lt. SurgeHey, there baby. I'm Lt. Surge, leader of the Vermillion City Gym. I call everyone who challenges me "baby" until they can defeat me, because until your skills are good enough to beat me, you're nothing but a rookie. I remember Ash Ketchum. I sure underestimated him; I never would have thought his baby Pikachu could beat my Raichu. Yeah, I used to think you had to evolve a Pokemon right away to win, but Ash and his Pikachu proved strength isn't the only way to win. Well, we each have our own way of winning, and I really believe that kid can make it to the top. I'll never underestimate that kid again.
Officer Jenny*Yawn* Team Rocket actually didn't try to do anything bad when they were here. What a relief, we can rest easy. Even when they do try something, they hardly ever succeed, but they can still cause a lot of damage. I really don't know much about Pokemon Trainers and battles around here. Nurse Joy knows a lot about that, maybe you should talk to her. zZz...S.S. Anne leaves without you.....In Pokemon Yellow, I'm awake and trying to find a home for a Squirtle...What do you mean "I talk in my sleep", Joy?...zzZzz..
Nurse JoyHello there, welcome to the Pokemon Center. It's pretty busy here most of the time due to the Trainers who battle Lt. Surge. A lot of trainers end up with severely injured or exhausted Pokemon while trying to earn a badge from him. I had always thought a Trainer's only hope to defeat him would be an Evolution Stone, but a Trainer named Ash won with an unevolved Pikachu. I remember the first time he went to face Lt. Surge he was sure he would win. When he lost, I offered him a Thunder Stone, but he left the decision to his Pikachu, which refused. Someone gave him the idea to use the speed attacks that only an unevolved Pokemon could learn. I had never thought of that. Oh, dear--another patient, I have to be going. Enjoy your stay!
