[OLD] Luna Mew Light Kanto Journey

Chapter 19: Viridian Gym! Back to Pallet Town! Training for the League!

The gang had just arrived at Viridian and Luna was looking forward to battling Viridian Gym.

"I can't believe that I only need one more badge to enter the Indigo League." Luna said. She was staring at her seven badges and remembering each battle like yesterday.

"You sure seem excited Lu." Misty said.

"Of course I am Mist," Luna answered, "I have always wanted to take part in the Indigo League ever since I first saw it on TV as a little kid."

Misty smiled, "It is nice to dream." She admitted.

They arrived at Viridian Gym. The Gym was a light brown building and looked like a Roman temple.

Luna was just about to head for the doors, when her rival Gary turned up, "Hi Luna." Gary said in his cocky voice.

"Gary, what are you doing here?" Luna asked.

"I'm here for a gym battle," said Gary "what are you here for?"

"I'm here to get my eigth badge." Luna said and showed Gary her seven badges in her case.

Gary smirked and showed Luna his ten badges, "I'm battling this gym first." He said and entered the gym.

Luna wanted to enter the gym too, but the guards at the door said that they would only take one challenger at a time, Luna had to wait for Gary to come out for his turn.

Luna sighed, "I think I'll stop by the Pokémon Centre for a while then." She said.

They went to the Pokémon Centre. The Nurse Joy was happy to see Luna and Misty again.

Luna was planning to use Gyarados, Salamence and Kangaskhan for the Gym Battle because she heard the Viridian Gym one of the toughest gym in Kanto. So she had Nurse Joy check them out. She was now having tea in the Pokémon Centre café with the others.

"I just realized that it has been nearly a whole year, since we left Viridian City." Misty said to Luna.

Luna smiled, "Your right," she said, "and it will be my 11th birthday in a couple of weeks too. Wow, we have been travelling for so long, I've lost track a bit of how many days have flown by."

Brock laughed, "That's normal, because it's easy to ignore the fact that time flies by so quickly when you're enjoying your good life." He said.

Just then Luna felt a Psychic aura in the air, "What's wrong big sister?" Tomo asked.

"I don't know," Luna said, "but I'm sensing psychic powers in this city."

"Is it a psychic Pokémon?" Brock asked.

"I'm not sure," Luna replied, "I mean it feels like a psychic Pokémon, but it feels stronger though." The gang were all puzzled by this.

Half an hour later, the gang decided to head over to the Gym again.

When they got there, the guards were no longer there and the Gym sign said 'CLOSED'.

"Something's not right," said Brock, "we need to get into the Gym at once."

Good news was, the gym doors were not locked. The gang barged through the doors, ran through the corriders, until at last they found the battle arena.

To their horror they saw Gary and his two Pokémon Nidoking and Arcanine unconscious on the floor.

Luna ran over to Gary to see if he was all right, "Gary are you alright? What happened?" She asked.

Gary woke up and explained, "The Gym Leader used a Pokémon that I have never seen before," Gary said weakily "and it was so strong that my Pokémon never stood a chance."
