About 3 Hours Later...

Delano finally made it back to Flamivus Town. "Well know to take a break. There is no need to battle the gym leader of this town yet" Delano said to himself as he entered the Pokemon Center giving Nurse Joy his pokemon.

A few minutes later...

Nurse Joy returned Delano his pokeballs than Delano exited the pokemon center "Alright come on out everyone" Delano said as release DarkFire(Houndoom). Steel(Steelix), Krow(Honchkrow), Dusk(Duskull), Possesser(Shuppet), and Shadow(Gastly). "Alright time to train some more and become stronger. Shadow Thunderbolt, Dusk charge beam, Possesser thunder wave, Krow Steel wing, DarkFire Iron tail, and Steel Ice fang" Delano commanded from all of his pokemon.

All tried the moves all failing miserable.

6 hours later....


"Shadow Thunderbolt, Dusk charge beam, Possesser thunder wave, Krow Steel wing, DarkFire Iron tail, and Steel Ice fang" Delano commanded

Shadow unleashed stored eletricity into a powerful bolt, Dusk let out a beam of eletricity, Possesser let out a wave of eletricity, Krow's wings glowed gray, DarkFire's tail glowed gray, Ice-shaped fangs formed around Steels mouth. all the attacks hit multiple rocks sending pebbles flying every where "Good job guys"

[Sakurazaki Daisuke]

While heading for Flamvius Village after his hard train, Sono saw Flamvius City and started to run to reach it as fast as he can, but in the way he stumble in a root of a big tree making Yuko-Chan drop from his head, "Aww! This one hurted, are ou okay, Yuko-Chan?" the little fox appeared with a kind of Seed in the mouth, "Wait, Yuko-Chan don't eat this let me look what it is first" Sono took the seed and picked his Pokedex, "According to my Pokedex, this is a Miracle Seed, a item that burst the attack power of Plant-Type moved I think I will give for one of you after!" he smiled while standed up of the floor and placed Yuko-Chan back to his head.

-----Some time later------

"[i]Ah! Finally Flamvius City, the hottest city of all! Now I need a Pokemon Center and defeat the local Gym Leader who uses Fire-Type Pokemon[/i]" he thought while searching in his Pokedex for the local Pokemon Center, after found the information he headed to the Pokemon Center, "Nurse Joy, could you please heal them?" he asked and smiled to the Nurse who nooded and took his Pokeballs from his Hands and his Vulpix from his head.

-----After some minutes------

The Nurse returned the Pokeballs and his Vulpix to Sono while smiling, "Thank you again, Nurse Joy" Sono smiled and left the Pokemon Center."[i]Now search for the Gym[/i]" he thought while starting his search, "I've found you Flamvius Gym" he said while entering the recent seen Gym.After he reached the centre of the Gym where teh Gym leader was he challenged the Gym Leader for a Gym Battle."Go on and beat him Swablu" he said and trew a Pokeball that revealed to be the Pokeball of the little blue Pokemon, the Leader threw another Pokeballs and revealed a Slugma."Now use Sing and put that Slugma to sleep and use Aerial Ace"

-----A Couple of minutes after-------

"[i]My last Pokemon against he last one, why I have so many Grass Pokemon he defeated all of them with this cursed Skarmory[/i]" he thought while Yuko-Chan jumped his head and entered in the battlefield "Yuko-Chan burn him into ashes, use Fire Blasting Phantom" he ordered while Skarmory advanced in a very agrresive way, the little fox lauched a enormous column of fire from its mouth hitting with full power the upcoming Skarmory, then some purple orbs formed at Yuko-Chan's tails after some shakes of it the wer threw and hit the lied Skarmory making it confuse and burn, "Now Extrassensory" he finished, then Yuko-Chan's eyes started to glow in blue and Skarmory started to contort and faint.The leader gave the badge to Sono that grinned and said "Sorry for being cruel, but you beat my little Swablu" this sentence made the Gym Leader become a little scared of Sono as he left the Gym and went to the Pokemon Center before deciding his next step.

[DeathSDelano]

Still hanging out near the pokemon center with all but shadow in their pokeballs Delano looked up at the sky. "I wonder what i should do next. My pokemon have done enough training for today and there is no one to battle around here except the gym leader. But i am not in the mood to fight him" Delano continued saying to himself when he say a trainer(Sono) walk into the Flamvius pokemon center. Delano chuckled than nodded to Shadow. Shadows eyes glowed blue and the ground infront of the trainer was lifted infront of the trainers foot waiting for the trainer to trip and fall

[Serenity the Candyman]

Nathaniel just smiled, and looked at Dante as he obtained the "orb." Natheniel would never let anyone see the real orbs, especially The traitor Dante. He knew that he would try to obtain the orb at any cost, so he had the grunts make a fake set of the orbs and present it to him, so Dante would try to steal the orb. The real orbs were locked away along with the feather, where only he could find them. After all, they were needed to create the end product, the Arceus's Tear. Nathaniel just, laughed at the pitaful site of the grunt int the explosion. " Go ahead and take it, what do I care. Infact, take all three orbs because what do I know." The "orbs" started to glow and each one blew up in succession. " Wait my bad, did you need that for Giratina? " Nathaniel said as Giratina roared.

Meanwhile...

The Desert was harsh on Caullen as he travelled towards Terramean City. After many battles, his pokemon were getting tired and he needed a place to rest. Then he saw a house and headed straight to it.

[CrystalCyae]

Ashmin entered the Pokemon Centre again. "Back so soon?" Asked the Nurse Joy. "Yea. I just battled the Gym Leader. Can you heal my Pokemon for me again?" Ashmin asked. "Sure thing." Nurse Joy took the Pokeballs and left the room for a moment, then cam back. "Here you go!" She said cheerfully. "Thanks." Ashmin said politely, taking the Pokeballs back. She pocketed them, and left the Pokemon Centre. Once she'd left she grabbed out her Pokegear. "Let's see...The next Gym is the Grakus Isle one, so I should head there." She pocketed the Pokegear. "Well, time to go."

[Serenity the Candyman]

Nathaniel looked at Dante as the his was full of shock as the fake orb blew to pieces. Nathaniel laughed again but this time put on a serious face. " If you promise not to ever be a traitor to me as your leader and follow my orders, then you can have this." The Device opened up and the Gracious Orb began to materialized into the air. " This was a copy but it was exactly like the real one. and due to the Device, it was able to control Giratina like the real one. If anything, you couldnt tell it was a fake.

[~Kip~]

Leonard sent in his Pupitar, and the Gym Leader, Virgil, sent in her Weavile.

* * *

Both Combusken and Glaceon were looking tired. Glaceon launched an Ice Beam, and Leonard countered by ordering a Flamethrower attack. The attacks collided, causing an explosion. Both Pokemon were knocked out and Leonard received the gym battle. Leonard moved on to what appeared to be a forest up ahead. He decided he might find his fourth team member. When he entered, however, he realized it wasn't a forest, it was a sea of green mist. "Pidgeotto, clear the area with Gust." said Leonard throwing out it's Poke-Ball. The small bird flapped its wings hard and made a gust of wind, blowing away the fog.

--------------------MEANWHILE--------------------

Scott had heard the call to the commanders. He got up, returned his Feraligatr, and headed to his master's room. "Yes, great leader?" he asked.

[Dementuo]

Atrus looked down at his phone. "...He didn't pick up..." Atrus put his phone away, and returned to his previous spot, staring out at the ocean, sitting on the edge of the cliff. "...I'm sire that he'll get here... He has to." Atrus thought.

-MEANWHILE-

Zura Glory witnessed Giratina's awakening. "What...?! Giratina was supposed to be sealed, unless someone had tampered with the Dreamstone Hedron, the one keeping Giratina sealed..." Zura approached Nathaniel. "You, Nathaniel! Why are you here?" Zura asked intently.

-MEANWHILE-

Zura Trancella turned around. "Oh, good. You're here. There will be no need for such formalities." Trancella said. "Anyways, I have called you here for a reason. I want you to go and acertain the location of a boy. He has something that we need. A small piece of stone, a clear, white one. It'll look like a crystal to you. You will not take it, you will leave it with him. All you shall do is relay to me his exact location. His name is Atrus. Atrus Cyan. His last known location was Evraflow, but we can't risk going there just yet. Let me see... You shall backtrack his footsteps. He is a trainer, and as such, is competing in the Conference this year. Go to Hauntra, and backtrack through every place with a Gym or along the way to one. I want you to find him." Trancella explained. "Oh, and if you happen to find anyone with a stone like that, inform me personally. Understand?"

[CrystalCyae]

Ashmin walked to the nearby harbour and galnced at the time table. "So, the next ferry to Grakus Isle is in a few minutes? I can wait." She said, sitting on the ground. She pulled a notepad from her bag and began randomly drawing Pokemon, like the ones she'd seen in the forest. When she ran out of pokemon to draw, she began drawing out move combos, like Burning Boulders and such. After a few minutes, the ferry appeared. Leapinmg to her feet, she stuffed her notebook in her bag, and bought a ticket. Smiling, she boarded the boat.

------Half an Hour later--------

Ashmin finished coloring the image of the Burning Boulder Combo. She'd even managed to put her Quilava using Flamethrower to set the Boulders alight. With a bored sigh she got up from her chair and walked over to the edge of the ferry, and gazed out at the blue sea. Looking downwards, she noticed some Seels playing in the wake of the ship. She laughed. "[i]Hmmn, maybe I should try to catch a water type Pokemon for the next gym. Even though it may not be that helpful, I'll have a 4th edition to my team.[/i]" She thought. Deciding to wait until she reached dry land, she went back and sat down boredly. "[i]This is going to be boring...[/i]"

[~Kip~]

"Yes, sir! Oh and by the way, I have found ourselves a boy who could be a real problem, even though he's 14. His name is Leonard. He owns a Poliwag that knocked my Weavile unconscious, and his Bulbasaur is his strongest Pokemon. It would be best to keep an eye on him, I presume." With that, Scott went on his chopper, which he disguised as a News Chopper, and flew around, starting at Hauntra Town. He found nobody, and stopped at Gloomdelta for a bit.

--------------------MEANWHILE--------------------

Leonard's Pidgeotto soon grew tired and stopped. Suddenly, a pair of gleaming eyes stared at him. A little pink ballerina Pokemon danced out and attacked Pidgeotto. Pidgeotto was too tired to fight back. As it was lifted into the air, Leonard tried grabbing it and returning it, but neither worked. After a while, Pidgeotto regained it's strength, but knew it couldn't beat Pidgeotto. It started to glow with a white aura. It changed shape into a Pidgeot. It stopped evolving and took flight. The Kirlia tried a Psychic attack, but it only saw multiple copies of Pidgeot. It used Psybeam and destroyed all the clones, but missed the real one, as Pidgeot dodged. It attempted another Psychic, but it couldn't see Pidgeot anywhere. Pidgeot appeared behind it and used Air Slash, severely weakening it. Leonard stood for a second in awe at his new Pidgeot's speed. He caught the Kirlia and moved on. Soon, he found a town, Gloomdelta Town.

[CrystalCyae]

Ashmin finished another drawing, and boredly shoved it in her bag. Rather bored, she reached for her Pokeballs. "C'mon out you guys!" She commanded, and three red lights shot out of the balls, revealing 3 Pokemon. They looked eager and ready. Pocketing the Pokeballs, Ashmin lead them to a part of the ferry where Pokemon battles where taking place. Deciding to train, Ashmin found herself a spot that wasn't too close to anyone else. "OK guys, lets train. Diglett, Mud Bomb! Quilava, Roll Out! Trapinch, Bite!" Ashmin declred. Diglett knelt down slightly, then fired a large blob of mud at the railing, where it burst. Quilava took a deep breath, then shot out a few large boulders towards the railing also, where they fell over the edge. Trapinch waited for the others, before lunging foward, teeth bared. It bit the railing, and lept back, not leaving a dent. "Let's keep going!" said Ashmin.

------Half an hour later-------

Ashmin returned her Pokemon as she saw Grakus Isle come closer and closer. Knowing she only had about three minutes until the ship reached port, she went back to her seat and sat down. "[i]I'm too bored to draw much more, and I can't do a particular thing in a public place. Too embarrassing, to say the least. I guess I'll have to wait until the ship reachs port. Uggh....I hate waiting....[/i]"

[~Kip~]

Leonard ran into Scott resting. He would recognize him anywhere. "What are you doing here?" he asked Scott angrily. "Are you trying to create a giant massacre? Or let me guess, you're going to take all these people's Pokemon." "Relax," started Scott, "I'm not here to cause trouble. I only came only to rest. I'm looking for a boy by the name of Atrus, do you have any clue where he might be?" "Even if I did, would I really tell you?" "You should," said Scott pulling out a Poke-Ball. He threw it, releasing an Umbreon. Leonard sent out Poliwhirl, and one of the toughest battles he ever faced awaited him.

Scott started by ordering a Shadow Ball, which Poliwhirl jumped over. Leonard told it to use Bubblebeam, but Scott countered by digging. Umbreon soon appeared under Poliwhirl, jumped, and used Shadow Claw. Leonard quickly ordered a Dizzy Punch, and the two attacks collided, sending both Pokemon back. Leonard ordered a Hypnosis, but when Umbreon fell asleep, Poliwhirl fell asleep too. Leonard questioned what happened, and Scott explained Umbreon's ability, Synchronize. They both returned their Pokemon.

Leonard sent out Pupitar, and Scott sent out Weavile. He ordered Ice Beam, which froze Leonard's Pupitar. Leonard returned it. Scott returned his Weavile and sent in Scizor. Leonard then sent in Kirlia, which used Psybeam. This hit Scizor hard. It then used Psychic, picking up the Scizor and smashing it into the ground a couple of times until it was knocked out cold. Scott returned Scizor and sent Weavile back out, which with great ease took on and defeated Kirlia and knocked it out in one attack.

Leonard sent in Pidgeot, and with it;s speed knocked out Weavile. Scott was shocked that Leonard's Pidgeotto grew so fast. He sent out Feraligatr, wanting to finish this. It quickly knocked out Pidgeot with a Crunch attack before Aerial Ace made contact. Leonard sent out Bulbasaur, which knocked out Feraligatr, but had to knock itself out because it used Razor Leaf at the same time as Feraligatr's Hydro Pump. They returned their Pokemon.

Leonard sent out Combusken, and Scott sent out Infernape. Leonard ordered Double Kick, but Infernape jumped and stepped on top of Combusken. It then used ThunderPunch on command, which hit Combusken in the stomach. Leonard knew Combusken was strong, but not strong enough for Infernape. Combusken knew this too, but she kept fighting for Leonard. She used Flamethrower, but it was no match for Infernape's Fire Blast. It was knocked back.

Combusken started to glow white. It changed shape and evolved into Blaziken. "Alright!" yelled Leonard. He ordered an Overheat, and Infernape used Fire Blast. The attacks collided and sent back both Pokemon. Blaziken landed, but Infernape was injured. He then ordered a Sky Uppercut, which collided with a ThunderPunch. Both Pokemon went flying, but Infernape recovered while Blaziken fell. Infernape tried a Mach Punch, but Leonard used Flamethrower, knocking it to the ground. "Finish it! Blaze Kick!" yelled Leonard. Blaziken's foot burned with flames. It kicked the Infernape in the face, knocking it out. Scott returned his Pokemon and brought them to the Pokemon Center. After they were healed, he got back in his chopper and flew off, and Leonard found the gym.

[Ｄｈａｒｃ]

[color="#708090"]Dante was surprised at the explosions, but he got over it quickly, cursing at himself for thinking they were real. However, once the real Griseous Orb came down to him, he felt better. Dante and Giratina continued toward the portal, but the odd forces in here were even more unstable than before, resulting in much slower progress for Giratina. It would take a while to get out.[/color]
[color="#708090"]
[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]"Togekiss, Streaking Comet!"[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]Togekiss shot up into the air with an ExtremeSpeed, then shot back down with a Sky Attack and ExtremeSpeed mix, resulting in a glowing, whitish-blue aura streaking behind Togekiss, making it seem as if Togekiss was a comet in the night sky. Togekiss barreled into Aggron, who responded with a Metal Burst, shooting Togekiss back into the air. The two then collided, Togekiss using Streaking Comet while Aggron used Iron Head Smash. The two collided and the shockwave could be felt for miles. Both were knocked out, just like Dewgong and Magmortar were during their training.[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]Alex saw not only the strength and willpower in his Pokemon, but also their instinct and natural cunning, which proved to be an effective weapon, as all but Dewgong could battle as an autonomous unit. This would mean that if, for some reason, Alex was incapacitated, his Pokemon could fight for themselves.[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]However, as was stated previously, Dewgong was having trouble. Dewgong didn't have very many natural instincts, as it was the youngest in its rookery ((OOC: Group of seals in real life)), so others did all the work for it.[/color]
[color="#A0522D"]However, Alex knew that Dewgong would do well one day. He just knew it.[/color]

"Kira, wake up! its morning already" Mother said. Kira woke up from his bed and he get dressed up. then he joins his mother on breakfast. after finishing his breakfest, Kira heads to the door that leads outside his house, "Dont be late Kira, or you wont get your share of the dinner." Mother said, Kira nodded then he left the house.[/color]

[color="#FFA500"]-10 minuets later-
"Greevine town isnt as i expected, i shouldnt left Goldenrod city" Kira said while he was observing the town, then kira decided to take a walk to the forest near town.
Kira walked for ten minuets then he heard a pokemon Screaming nearby, kira rush to see whats going on, its was a mareep running away from a group of spearow attacking him, Mareep reached to a dead end and he was surronded.
Kira took a moment to think of a way to save Mareep from the attacking Spearows, he took some pieces of rocks and started to throw it on the spearows, suddenly they turned thier attention on kira and starting to attack him with fury.
Kira stoodby and covers himself and takes the damage from the attacking spearows, Mareep couldnt just stand and watches kira suffers at the hands of the spearows, Mareep used Thunderstrike with all that he got.
Mareep's attack hit the entire Spearows then they flew away. After that Mareep walked closer to Kira and started to lick Kira's wounds that has been caused by the spearows. "i should it be the one who supposed to save you but it turns out that you save me instead" Kira said with smile in his face[/color].

[color="#00FF00"]-After 15 Mineuts-
Kira returned to Greenvine Town and he heads straight to his home, "Welcome back Kira" Kira's Mom welcomed the return of her son. "oh! who is that pokemon that standing next you?" mother asked.
"thats my new friend Mareep, he saved my life today" kira replied.

And thats the begininng of Kira's adventure to the pokemon world[/color]

[Sakurazaki Daisuke]

When Sono noticed he get stuck by a Psychic move from somewhere, he started to shake hands while saying "What's happening here? I'm flying? This is strange", after some minutes the effect of the Psychic move dissapeared and Sono come down and land on the floor."[i]I'm in a hurry to the Pokemon Center. I have no time to discover who did this...[/i]" he thought while heading to the Pokemon Center, "Nurse Joy, could you please heal them?", the Nurse smiled and took Sono's Pokeballs from his Hands and the Vulpix on his head.Then Sono started to tought "My mother was researching something in Magam Forest, I think I will train a little there..." he said while picking his Pokedex up, "[i]According to the Pokedex, the forest is dangerous and lots of fire Pokemons can be found there.It says that some precious stones can be found there, too[/i]" he thought while Nurse Joy called him to get his Pokemons back."[i]Thank you, Nurse Joy" he smiled and left the Pokemon Center, "So, Magam Forest is this way, I will train some of my Pokemons there and get some precious Stones to Mom, when I go back hom[/i]e" he thought while taking his bike and riding it in the direction of the hot forest.

------After some time------

"Finally, in Magma Forest" he said while pocketing his bike on his bag.Then a bunch of Growlights appeared and started to roar in the direction of Sono, "I guess they want a battle" he grinned and threw a Pokeball, "Let's finish them, Aoi-Chan" the Pokebal revealed a little bue bird Pokemon, "Aoi-Chan, use Aerial Song Combo, focusing on the one in the right!" he ordered as Swablu started to sing putting 2 of them to sleep, except the one on the right, then the little bird dashed in its direction while flying and hit the belly of little puppy Pokemon, it growled and passed out, "Now let's get out of here, I don't want to hurt any of this puppies" he said while walkin into the mysterious forest.

--------About 25 minutes later------

"A good place to train, finally, agains an Arcanine" he said while adding "Aoi-Chan, use Mist and hide yourself in it, please" the little bird started to produce a dense mist, making the Arcanine temporally blind, suddenly the Arcanine appeared behind the little bird and bited it, "I think this was an Extremespeed with Chrunch Combo!" he thought while adding to the last order, "Aoi-Chan use Mirror Move!" the little bird then, appeared behind the Arcanine and bited the big Arcanine, the Arcanine growled and started to catch on fire and dashed in a wheel form and hit the little bird making it badly hurt, "Aoi-Chan! Return now!" Sono ordered a little desperate, the little bird refused to returned and squawked sharply and become ready to heard the next move ordered by her trainer."Okay! I will do this way for you Aoi-Chan, use Dragon Pulse!!" the little Swablu glowed in white and a ball of green energy started to be formed from the bird's mouth and after some seconds was lauched, hitting the Arcanine making it badly hurt and faiting."Very good, Aoi-Chan!" Sono said while hugging the blue bird with cotton as its wings.After the hug, Aoi-Chan started to burn, "Aoi-Chan, return to your Pokeball, your Ability of Natural Cure will cease the burn" he said and showed the Pokeball making the little bird returns, "[i]Now I am only with Grass pokemons except for Vulpix that is a Fire, I think this will be very hard[/i]" he thought while searching for the precious stones the Pokedex talked about.

-------After some time-------------

Sono found a Cave hidden behind the leaves, "I will search in this cave for the Stones..." Sono said and entered the mysterious cave located in the deepest part of the forest.After walking in a wide straight road and nextly falling on some Pitfall Traps, Sono found some of the precious stones the Pokedex talked about."Wow!Looks like fire is burning inside them!" he said with a impressed face, "[i]I will only take 3 with me, 1 for mom, 1 to sell and 1 for remains with me[/i]" he thought while extracting the gems from the rocks the were stucked.When Sono get the 3 gems the fllor around him started to collapse and the passage to the exit dissapeared."[i]How am I going exit from this now?[/i]" he thought.After some minutes thinking he found out a way to get out of the cave, "Help me please! Hikaru and Kaoru!", a duo of Glooms appeared and waited fo the order of the trainer, "Use Vine whip and fix them in a resistant rock, please!" he ordered as the Glooms started to lauch vines from their bulbs on their heads.The Glooms fixed their vines on a rock and Sono grabbed the Glooms and said "Now push us to the other side!" he said while thinking "This smell from their drool is terrible!".Then Sono passed throght the bottomless hole left by the before collapsing floor becoming pale and saying "Thank you very much for the help, you can return now!", the duo of Glooms then nooded and returned to their Pokeballs.Now I need to get out of here, he said while picking his Pokedex and searching a secure route to come back to Flamvius City.After found he headed for the way indicated by the Pokedex.

--------About a hour later----------

After out of the forest, "I'm out of that cursed forest, finally" he said while falling on the ground due to the tiredness, "Time for a rest, right, Yuko-Chan?" he wishpered, then he fell asleep there.

[DeathSDelano]

Delano watched the trainer leave. "Well thats all for today time to go" Delano said as he started walking to Levia bridge once more.

6 hours later...
Delano has made it to the bridge. "Well time to take a break" Delano said as he sat down looked over the water. "Maybe i should get hammerer out of my box so i can train him a bit." Delano started thinking than laid back looking up at the sky with shadow floating around looking at everything

30 minutes later...

"Well thats enough laying around lets get across that bridge shadow" Delano said as they started to walk on the bridge

[color="#00FF00"]-9:00PM Midnight-
Kira was eating is dinner along with his new friend Mareep and they were watching some Pokemon matches on TV. "i wish i could be a pokemon trainer just like those two", kira said. then kira made his descision and said "Starting from tommorow i will start my journey as a pokemon trainer and to become a champion of all champions, are you with me Mareep?", Mareep nodded with approval.[/color]

[color="#00FF00"]-11:00AM Morning-
Kira woke up from his bed and he gets himself dressed preparing to his long journey. "Kira, before you leave i want you to have this bag, it contains 4 pokeballs and a Map and a cellphone in case you want to call me", mother said as she hands the bag to Kira, "Thanks mom, i wont let you down", kira replied.[/color]

[Serenity the Candyman]

Nathaniel hated intruders, especially ones that have a tendency to show up again and again. "Zura, we meet again. It seems fate has brought you here to see the reawakening of Giratina by someone you may know already, Dante. The reason why Im here is that this world that Giratina rules is where team Nebulus has decided to build headquarters, away from society, which is what I thought woud be best. Why are you here anyway?"

Meanwhile.....

Caullen had made it to Terramean City of the crazy strom of the Desert. After the family of the house happily allowed him to stay and rest, here he was, getting ready for the gym...Which Ground type pokemon was the norm. Know his pokemon were favored to win a victory, he stepped forward to meet Randy.

After much of an exciting battle, Caullen once again came out the victor. Croconaw made things easier when the Dugtrio kept digging (Didnt know that Croconaw could Dig, did you?). Walking out of the Gym, he knew he had to hurry, for the Conference was only days away. Finding a bus that would take him directly to Flamivus, he knew the time saved on travel will allow more time to train at the Mountain and against pokemon like the Gym's.

[~Kip~]

After healing his Pokemon, Leonard walked up to the Gloomdelta Gym. He opened it's huge doors. His battle against Lucas had began. He sent in Blaziken to handle Metagross. He ordered a Blaze Kick, and Metagross used Iron Defense. It countered with a Metal Claw, but Blaziken was told to use Sky Uppercut to counter.

* * *

"Finish it, Bulbasaur! Use..." He was interrupted when Bulbasaur shot too many leaves to count out of it's bulb. A wind started, blowing the leaves quickly toward the Gardevoir in a storm. After the battle, Leonard took out his Pokemon picture book. He showed Bulbasaur a picture of a Torterra. "Was this your father?" The Bulbasaur nodded, and Leonard knew that the last move was Leaf Storm.

After he healed his Pokemon, he started heading toward the water, where he took a boat to Hauntra Town.

[CrystalCyae]

Ashmin smiled as the ship reached port. Knowing that she could finally get down to buisness, she grabbed her bag and walked slowly off the ship, trying to make sure she wouldn't nearly throw up like last time. She remembered with a grimace. As she stepped off the boat she stumbled slightly. "Uggh, dammit." She groaned, leaning against a tree. When she felt she could walk properly, she walked foward one step at a time, and realising she was now fine, she stood up straight, then remembered something. "Oh yeah! I was going to try to catch a water-type pokemon when I got here." She puled out a Pokeball. "Go, Trapinch!" The red light emitted, and Trapinch was revealed. "Ok Trapinch, lets see if we can find a water-type Pokemon here." She said. After a while, she saw a Marril next the sea. "Ok Trapinch, use Bite." Ashmin declared. Trapinch lunged foward at the unsespecting Pokemon, which was hit. It fell back dizzily. Ashmin grabbed an empty Pokeball, and threw it. 1.......2.......3........Marill was caught! "Yes!" Exclaimed Ashmin, walking foward and picking up the Pokeball. "This little guy will have some pretty good move, I would say. That Gym Leader better be ready." Ashmin muttered. "But first, I'll go heal my Pokemon." Returning Trapinch, Ashmin walked into the town and entered the Pokemon Centre.

[~Kip~]

Leonard decided to train before the gym. During his training, his Kirlia evolved to Gardevoir and learned Protect, Magical Leaf, and Hypnosis. Halfway during training, Leonard went to the Hauntra Poke-Mart. His Poliwhirl came out of it's Poke-Ball and pointed to a King's Rock. Leonard bought it, and watched as Poliwhirl evolved into Politoed and learned Ice Beam, Perish Song, and Surf. He returned his Pokemon and headed toward the Hauntra Gym. He had the trouble going through the dark maze. After he finally made it through, he found the gym leader and his battle started.

[CrystalCyae]

Ashmin exited the Pokemon Centre, her Pokemon poised and ready for battle. "Now I'll go to the gym. I've heard the Gym Leader is super strong, and often stops battles prematurely. His strength could pose as a challenge...but nothing my Pokemon can't handle, right?" She grinned. Finding herself infront of the Gym, she took a deep breath. "Here goes." She muttered. Ready to place full trust in her Pokemon, she stepped inside.

-------A few minutes later----------

"OK Marril, use Hydro Pump and Aqua Jet for Hydro Jet combo!" Ashmin commanded. Marril took a deep breath, and when it exhaled, two powerful jets of water shot fowards, colliding with the Pokemon the Gym Leader was using. The Gym Leader stopped the battle there, giving the breathless Ashmin her Gym Badge. "Thank you." She said, returning Marril and leaving. She took out her Pokegear. "Ok, next Gym is in the Rockius Mountainside, not to far from here. That's my next destination." She pocketed the Pokemon. "But first, to heal my Pokemon."

[~Kip~]

Leonard sent out Politoed, and Enzo, the Gym Leader, sent out Spiritomb.

"Gengar, use Shadow Ball!" yelled Enzo. A ball of darkness was shot at Gardevoir. "Gardevoir, Protect!" yelled Leonard. A wall appeared and protected Gardevoir, then faded. "Now, use Mgical Leaf!" Gardevoir shot leaves out of it's hands, which hit Gengar knocking it out. Leonard accepted his badge from Enzo and walked toward the exit. "Just one more to go..." he said.

Scott had just finished searching Grakus Islands, and headed across the Levia Bridge. He didn't find Atrus anywhere, so he checked Terraneum City. Again, he found nobody. He went through Gradnis Village and Forest, then to Greenvine. He went to report to the leader.

(OOC: Just realised I've left Kalin out of this BIG time! Oh well, I'm too caught up with Ashmin's speedy journey to care)
Ashmin left the Pokemon Centre again. "I'm spending a lot of my time there." She muttered, walking to the port. She glanced quickly at the time table. "These ports run quickly, only about a minute until a ferry comes bound for the Rockius Mountainside, isn't that convieneit?" Ashmin grinned. "Luckily, Rockius Mountainside is rather close, so no massive half an hour waits like last time." She laughed. "Then I'll go challenge that Gym Leader, and get my 5th badge!" Ashmin declared. Grabbing her Pokegear, she checked something and frowned. "A WATER type gym? That lowers my chances severly, since all my Pokemon's types aren't effective on Water; Even Marril won't be much help." She groaned. "I guess winning the 5th badge comes down to pure skil, and luck. I wonder if I'll get lucky..." He thought were broken at the sound of the ferry docking. "Great!" Ashmin smiled, boarding the ferry. "On to Rockius Mountainside!"

Scott exited the chopper and pulled off it's disguise so it looked like a Draconius chopper. He kept to himself the incident against Leonard. "Boss, I have looked all over except for Evraflow, like you told me to. However, I believe we may be too late. I couldn't find him. I think he may be in Evraflow."

--------------------MEANWHILE--------------------

After winning his badge, Leonard sent out Pidgeot. He flew over toward the city of Gradnis. Up above, he saw the News chopper, which was really Scott's chopper in disguise. He smiled and rode by. He reached Gradnis after a while, which was even more beautufil than he remembered. He healed his Pokemon overnight at the center, and then the next day he challenged Shibi.
