The Tauros Trade

The Tauros Trade

Ash & his Pokémon had finished training for the day. During their training, Ash had used his Pokédex to see what moves his Pokémon are capable of learning & he even checked their summaries.

"I never seen you get this serious before, Ash." Misty said

"Yeah, no offense but while we were traveling, you were anything but that." Brock said

"None taken." Ash said

"Hey Ash." Oak called

"What is it, Professor?" Ash said

"There's something I wanna talk to you about." Oak said "It's about your 29 Tauros."

"What about them?" Ash asked

"Well, have you ever considered trading them for other Pokémon." Oak asked

"Gee, I never thought of that." Ash sweatdropped "But how can I find Trainers who want my Tauros for their Pokémon?"

"There's a Swap Meet in Viridian City." Oak said "But before you go there, I'd like to give you a new Pokédex."

Oak gave Ash a Pokédex that resembled a Visteon Dockable Entertainment(the one from Let's Go Pikachu & Eevee)

"Wow, this is so cool!" Ash said excitedly

"I'm glad you like it, I have discovered that there are three new Types." Oak said

"New Types?" Ash repeated

"Yes, they are known as Steel Type, Dark Type, & Fairy Type." Oak informed "I also discovered that Magnemite & Magneton are part Steel Type here in the Kanto Region."

"What about the Fairy Types?" Misty asked

"The only Fairy Types here in Kanto are Clefairy, Clefable, Mr. Mime, & Jigglypuff." Oak said "Togepi is also a Fairy Type."

"Well what do you know?" Misty commented as she looked at Togepi

"Toge Toge." Togepi cooed

"Are there any Dark Types here in Kanto?" Brock asked

"No, but there are Dark Types that live in other regions." Oak said

"Is there anything else we should know about these Types?" Ash asked

"Well, Steel Types are weak against Fire, Fighting, & Ground Types, strong against Rock, Ice, Fairy Types & immune to Poison Type Moves. Dark Types are weak against Bug, Fighting, & Fairy Types, strong against Ghost & Psychic Types, & immune to Psychic Type Moves. & lastly Fairy Types are weak against Steel & Poison Types, strong against the Fighting, Dark, & Dragon Types, & immune to Dragon Type Moves." Oak explained

"Thanks Professor." Ash said

When they arrived at the Swap Meet in Viridian City

"Whoa, look at all the people." Misty said in awe

"They must be all here to trade for new Pokémon." Ash said

"There's a stage over there, you can put it to good use." Brock said

When Ash got on the stage.

"Hello? Excuse me?" Ash said as everyone looked at him

"Hey, my name is Ash & I want everyone to know that I have 29 Tauros available to trade. Any volunteers?" Ash said.

"I want a Tauros!" One trainer said

"Me too!" Another one said

"So do I!" Another said
