1.Ash's Story (Part 2: Johto)

Chapter 6

When we arrived at the Pokemon Center, we got a call from Professor Elm. Elm says, "Hello, guys! How is your gym battle going?"

"It is easy, we got the first badge." Ash says as he shows the Zephyr Badge. "But why are you calling us?"

"We've discovered something! The details are...Well, I can't really say anything, but we want you to carry that Egg! My assistant is at the Poké Mart in Violet City. Could you go meet him and pick up that Egg?" Elm says.

Then we all head to the Poke Mart, and we manage to find Professor Elm's assistant. "Long time no see. I've been waiting for you. This is from Professor Elm. The thing is...we would like you to take care of an Egg!"

I say, "We already have a Togepi. Why don't you take it, Ethan?"

"Are you sure? Thanks, bro." He says.

The assistant continues, "After you left, Professor Elm received a phone call. I have no idea what they were talking about. But, after a while, Professor Elm suddenly cried out. "I can't think of anyone more suited than those trainers!" Then he insisted that I hand this egg to you. That's how I came here to deliver the Egg to you. It seems that a Pokemon will hatch from it only when you keep it in your party of Pokemon. That's another reason we've chosen you. Please take care of it!"

"We will." We say as we are heading outside of the mart. Just then, we see a woman wearing a kimono walking towards us.

"Me oh my...that Egg must be...!" The woman gasps.

"You know this egg?" Kris asks, "It was a gift from Mr. Pokemon to Professor Elm, and then Professor Elm gave it to us."

"This egg is truly important. Please do take good care of it for me." The woman says. "Is that understood? I'm counting on you."

Then she leaves, and East asks, "Who is she and why is she interested in our egg?"

"I don't know." Lillie says, "But let's not think of it."

As we continue our journey, we go to Route 36 because a man is giving the two of us the HM for Rock Smash, which is an HM that I haven't gotten in Kanto. Then we see a Marill being tied on a truck thanks to Team Rocket. Reisa goes to save her, only to have a commotion on the back of the truck. The truck eventually crashes into a railing and Team Rocket blasts off into the air once again. Pikachu and Marill end up rolling down the hill towards the riverside. Reisa continues down the hill and successfully grabs the two Pokémon. Unfortunately, she can't stop and falls into the river.

When we search for Reisa, we find her being surrounded by Team Rocket again. "Chikorita, use Vine Whip to save her!" "You too!"

We come in time and save them, and they send out Arbok and Weezing. Arbok's Poison Sting attack almost hits Reisa, but Marill uses Water Gun to save her. After that, Pikachu blows Team Rocket away with Thunderbolt. After the events, Marill joins Reisa's team as we continue their journey.

At Route 32, I look at the map and say, "If we go south, we will be heading to Union Cave, which is where we are going."

"Indeed. But for now, how about we capture some Pokemon?" Lillie asks.

"Sure, that sounds fun." I say.

On the way, we are stopped by a man. "Wait up! What's the hurry? You have some good Pokemon there. It must be from the training you gave them around Violet City. The Training at the Gym must have been especially helpful. As a souvenir of Violet City, take this. It increases the power of Grass, Fire, and Water Type moves."

They then get a Miracle Seed, Charcoal, and Mystic Water from the man, much to our surprise, after that, we thank the man as we continue our journey. T

In the grass, we start to capture some Pokemon that we are interested in. The first Pokemon is Mareep, when it smothers Pikachu, he retaliates with a Thunder Shock. However, Mareep's thick fleece absorbs the attack and grows in size. Soon enough, more Mareep appear and gather around Pikachu. He zaps them all, causing their wool to get very fluffy.
