1.Ash's Story (Part 3: Hoenn)

Chapter 3

Now we're at Route 102, and the first Pokemon that we capture there is a Lotad, and of course Team Rocket is trying to steal all the Lotad in the water, but Lotad is too slow to run away, and they skim the lake surface and scoop up all the Lotad with ease. However, one Lotad teams up with my Pikachu and destroys the boat, releasing all the captured Lotad, and then Pikachu uses Thunderbolt to send them flying.

Lotad: The Water Weed Pokemon: Water and Grass Type. Lotad is said to have dwelled on land before. However, this Pokémon is thought to have returned to water because the leaf on its head grew large and heavy. It now lives by floating atop the water.

The next Pokemon we find is Seedot. We see a bunch of Seedot hanging on the trees, we find that they are not happy due to the recent landslide nearby that took down their favorite trees to drink moisture from. So we decide to help find the perfect tree for them, and once we do, the Seedot joins our team.

Seedot: The Acorn Pokemon: Grass Type. Seedot attaches itself to a tree branch using the top of its head. It sucks moisture from the tree while hanging off the branch. The more water it drinks, the glossier this Pokémon's body becomes.

The third Pokemon we find is a Surskit. It is playing in the water and we battle it to capture the Pokemon. Since it is a Water Type, Pikachu's attacks manage to land and we capture the Pokemon in the end.

Surskit: The Pond Skater Pokemon: Bug and Water Type. From the tips of its feet, Surskit secretes an oil that enables it to walk on water as if it were skating. This Pokémon feeds on microscopic organisms in ponds and lakes.

Now we decide to take a rest at the Pokemon Center, and we meet Officer Jenny, who seems to be looking for a poacher named Rico. He's a ruthless poacher who does not hesitate to kill Pokemon, and that shocked the three of us.

We decide to help her as I use Wingull to search for him, and when we find him, he's now sitting near his SUV with a net with 2 Ralts and a dying body of Gallade and a Gardevoir. One of the Ralts is shiny, so I have to guess that's why the Poacher takes them.

"So you're Rico. You're under arrest for Pokemon poaching." Jenny says.

"Is that so, Officer?" He sends out Fearow to battle, but I have Pikachu use Thunderbolt to destroy the Fearow.

"Then I'll use Tyranitar!" Before he can send it out, Officer Jenny just steals his Pokeballs so that he can't use it.

"Now Rico, release all the Pokemon that you caught." Officer Jenny says, and Rico just throws the net down and mutters, "If you're looking for other Pokemon, you're late. They all escaped thanks to a bunch of fools."

We rush to the two Ralts, who are hugging their almost-dying Gallade and Gardevoir.

"Mom, Dad you can't die..." The female Ralts says while crying.

"I am sorry that I can't protect you..." Gallade says while coughing. He looks at me and says his last words, "Please, take care of my children."

Now I feel bad for the two Ralts, it is true that Gardevoir and Gallade can't make it. Alice and I hug the Ralts, hoping to give them comfort. Once they are out of breath, we also give them a proper burial, while the officer takes the poacher away.

Ralts: The Feeling Pokemon: Psychic and Fairy Type. Ralts senses the emotions of people using the horns on its head. This Pokémon rarely appears before people. But when it does, it draws closer if it senses that the person has a positive disposition.

And now we meet up with Brendan after walking, he says, "Hey! There you are! How's it going, guys? Hope you've been using your Pokedex and perfecting your sneaking skills."
