[4] The Daughter of Nurse Joy: Hoenn Adventure

Phoebe of the Hoenn Elite Four

The gang had some more little adventures with Prof Birch; they had walked into a forest that had wild Seedot. Seedot were grass Pokémon and they looked like acorns and Alain and Max caught one for themselves. Also while traveling in the forest, Cora's Caria (Silcoon) and Mairin's Choko (Silcoon) and May's Silcoon evolved into Beautifly, which made Cora, Mairin and May happy. They had also run into a wild Loudred that wasn't well and Brock used his knowledge of medicine to help Loudred. Loudred was grateful to Brock and wanted to go with him, so Brock had a Loudred for his own.

=====================

Right now, Prof Birch and the gang were going to visit an old, abandoned coal mine.

"Is it okay for people to visit the mine?" May asked, nervous.

"Yes, there's no need to worry May," Prof Birch assured her, "Lots of people have explored there before and there have never been any accidents."

=================

When they reached the mine, they saw a crowd of people and some police were stopping people from getting in.

"What's going on?" Cora asked.

"I don't know, but I'm going to find out." Prof Birch replied.

Prof. Birch walked up to a Policeman, "Excuse me, could you tell us what's going on?" He asked.

"Well there's been reports of ghost Pokémon roaming about in the mine and they kept scaring people away from the mine." The Policeman responded.

"Then that means the Ghost Pokémon have made this mine their territory." Prof Birch suggested.

"Then it's a good thing that I came here then." said a female voice.

Prof. Birch and the gang turned to the voice and saw a black-haired woman, who wore pink flowers and a red bracelet round her feet. A blue top and a matching long skirt with white flowers print on it that is slanted to the side (top picture).

"It's Phoebe of the Elite Four!" Someone shouted.

Hearts appeared in Brock's eyes, and he appeared right in front of Phoebe and held her hands in his.

"Your beauty is unmatched to the flowers that bloom alongside a river!" Brock proclaimed.

Phoebe chuckled nervously. Max grabbed Brock by the ear and began pulling him away.

"Maybe you should be thrown into a river so that you can cool off." Max suggested.

"Ooow! My ear!" Brock yelped in pain.

Phoebe, Prof. Birch, Ash, Cora, Alain, Mairin and May sweat-dropped at the sight.

"Anyways, what are you doing here, Phoebe?" Prof. Birch asked, changing the subject.

"I've heard the rumors of Ghost Pokémon lurking about in this mine, so I came here to investigate." Phoebe replied.

"So you must be a Ghost type expert." Cora commented.

Phoebe nodded, "That's right. I presume you also have some Ghost-type Pokémon?"

"Yes, I have a Gengar, a Misdreavus, Spireon and an Alolan Marowak." Cora replied.

"Wow! I have a Gengar and Misdreavus as well! I've been trying to find a Cubone so that I can evolve it in the Alola region. I've also been trying to find an Eevee so it can evolve into a Spireon." Phoebe smiled.

"Anyways, shouldn't we go and explore the mine?" Alain suggested.

"Right." Max nodded.

"I'll stand here." Mairin decided.
