Meeting Cheryl,

Meeting Gardenia

And The Amber Castle

One day the gang came to a forest called the Eterna Forest; this forest led to Eterna City. But now they were being distracted; Growlithe was running in the forest. "What's the matter Growlithe?" asked Tomo, who was chasing after him with the others. Suddenly Growlithe stopped at a tree and on the tree were some wild pokemon eating some honey that was smeared on the bark of the tree. "Ah well since pokemon can't resist the smell of sweet honey, it's no wonder Growlithe ran all the way over here" said Brock.

Suddenly a few Burmy turned up to eat the honey as well. Seeing the wild Burmys made Dawn think of her Burmy. Just then a green haired woman with a Chansey came out from some bushes. "Chansey use attract" said the woman. Some hearts came out of Chansey and they hit the Burmys. Two of them ended up falling in love with Chansey; that meant they were male. "Okay Chansey we only need to catch one of them," said the woman "use double slap". Chansey started to slap one of the male Burmy, but the Burmy started to use protect. Another thing was the other male Burmy attacked Chansey with tackle. Ash knew that Chansey was in trouble and he told Pikachu to use swift. The swift attack hit the other male Burmy and then Ash caught it. The woman told her Chansey to use egg bomb and Chansey hit Burmy with her egg. Burmy was weakened then and the woman caught. "Finally this male Burmy is mine" she cheered.

The gang introduced themselves to the woman, and the woman introduced herself as Cheryl. Cheryl explained she was a treasure hunter and she was searching for enchanted honey. "What's enchanted honey?" asked Brock. "Enchanted honey is honey that's supposed to taste 100 times sweeter than normal honey," said Cheryl "and that's why I'm here in Eterna Forest to find it". She presented a map of Eterna Forest to the gang. "The red X on the map shows that's where the Amber Castle is; a castle that no one has ever visited yet and where the enchanted honey was supposed to be". The gang found this very mysterious and exciting. "Hey Cheryl can we go with you?" asked Ash. He and the others wanted to find the Amber castle and enchanted honey too. Cheryl agreed.

After explaining about her mission, Cheryl sent out her Burmy. "First of all I need my Burmy to evolve into a Mothim," she said "Mothim has a powerful sense of smell that will help me find the enchanted honey". "Wouldn't it have been better to catch a Mothim in the first place?" asked Dawn. "My grandfather used to say that all roads begin with a Burmy," said Cheryl "I caught three Burmys before, but they evolved into Wormadams". She sent out three Wormadams; Wormadam was a bush like pokemon with the head at the top. These three Wormadams were different; one was green with flowers, second was brown with rocks and the third was pink. "Oh yes," said Brock "a female Burmy evolves into a Wormadam and a male Burmy evolves to Mothim".

Ash looked at Wormadam on his pokedex: Wormadam, the bagworm pokemon. The evolved form of a female Burmy. Its appearance changes depending on where it evolved. The materials on hand become a part of its body.

Brock explained that the green Wormadam (plant cloak form and bug and grass type) evolved from Burmy in a forest, the pink Wormadam (trash cloak form and bug and steel type) evolved from Burmy in the city and the brown one (sandy cloak form and bug and ground type) evolved from Burmy in the mountains or caves. "Since my Burmy is female it will evolve into a Wormadam too" said Dawn. "And mine will evolve into Mothim since its male" said Ash. He sent out his Burmy. "If our Burmys battle each other yours may evolve into Mothim," said Ash "Dawn send yours out too so she can have a turn after me". Dawn thought that was a good idea and sent out her Burmy.

Ash and Cheryl took their places to battle. Cheryl kept her three Wormadams out to cheer for her Burmy. "This is very kind of you to help me out Ash" said Cheryl. "I helped out a friend in the past with a Paras," said Ash "it will be my pleasure to help your Burmy". Cheryl told her Burmy to use tackle and Ash told his to do the same. Since the Burmys were on the same level with each other, they both got thrown back from tackling each other. "Let's use a different move," said Ash "Burmy use bug bite". "You use bug bite too Burmy" said Cheryl. The two Burmys bit each other with bug bite. "The Burmys are doing well with this state" said Dawn. "Well they were just caught," said Brock "so those two are on the same level with each other". "Okay let's use hidden power Burmy" said Ash. "You use hidden power too Burmy" said Cheryl. The hidden power attacks collided with each other. "How about this, use string shot Burmy" said Ash. Burmy fired a string shot and Chery's Burmy got trapped in it. Cheryl was surprised by that. "Excuse me Ash, but I don't know if my Burmy knows string shot" she said. She asked her Burmy if he knew string shot, but he didn't know it. This meant Ash's Burmy had won this battle.
