The Pokemon Mansion,

Gligar's Training Day

And The Hearthome Collection

There was bad weather on the way today and the gang were looking for shelter before the rain came. Suddenly a Cleffa came out of a bush. "Wow a Cleffa," said Dawn "I wonder what's it doing out here?" Before Dawn's question could be answered, an Eevee ran over to the Cleffa and spoke to it. "That Eevee is telling Cleffa it shouldn't have wondered off from the mansion like that" said Ash. "What mansion?" said Dawn. Just then a woman dressed in maid's clothing ran up. "There you are Cleffa please don't wonder off again" she said. She noticed the gang. "Hello there, are you kids lost?" "Not really, but we do need shelter before the rain comes" said Ash. "Well then follow me back to the mansion, Mr Backlot won't mind you staying there" said the woman.

The woman's name was Monica and she worked as caretaker of Backlot Mansion. Backlot Mansion was a huge mansion that belonged to a man named Mr Backlot. It also had a huge garden which Mr Backlot called the trophy garden. Monica introduced Mr Backlot to the gang and explained they needed shelter from the rain outside. "You kids are welcome to stay here; it's such dreadful weather outside" said Mr Backlot. The gang was delighted.

Suddenly some baby pokemon turned up. There were three Pichus, two Igglybuffs, a Azuril and two Budews. "Eevee and I found Cleffa everyone" said Monica. The pokemon were happy to see Cleffa again. "Are these pokemon yours?" Brock asked Mr Backlot. "Yes I love pokemon just like everyone else does" answered Mr Backlot. "Is Eevee yours too?" asked Tomo. "No Eevee is wild," said Monica "I found Eevee hurt and hungry out in the trophy garden one day. We healed it and gave it food till it was all better again. After it was healed it still stays here to help take care of the pokemon". "What a nice Eevee" said Dawn. "Well since everyone is gathered, how about some food?" said Monica. She brought out a tray with bowls full of poffins and the baby pokemon and Eevee tucked in. Seeing the poffins made Pikachu, Piplup and Growlithe feel hungry too, so the gang let out their pokemon to have poffins too.

Suddenly a Swinub appeared and it rushed straight towards the bowls of Poffins. Eevee charged towards Swinub and tackled it hard. Monica quickly left and came back with a big bowl of Poffins. "Here you are Swinub" she said. Swinub happily charged to the big bowl and ate up all the poffins. "I think that Swinub has the same appetite as a Munchlax" said Ash. The others agreed. Mr Backlot explained Swinub was wild and it loved the trophy garden, the mansion and Monica's poffins. Mr Backlot invited the gang to stay for dinner and for the night. The gang agreed as it was getting late.

After having some dinner Dawn asked Monica is she could borrow the kitchen; she wanted to make poffins for her pokemon. Monica agreed and gave the gang a basket full of berries they could use. "Hey I just remembered," said Ash "Prof Oak told me when I last spoke to him on the phone that he came up with a new recipe for poffin. I wrote it down". He took out a piece of paper from his back pack and made a small plate the poffins the same way as the recipe said. "What are these poffins like?" asked Dawn. Before she could get an answer Swinub came in and started to eat Dawn's poffins. "Bad Swinub, these are for the other pokemon" said Dawn, crossly. "You just ate a big bunch of poffins" said Monica. "Here Swinub" said Ash, presenting his Poffins to Swinub. Swinub ate Ash's Poffins and then it lay on its back showing it was full. "Hey," said Dawn "you only made a small portion of Poffins, so why is Swinub full already?" "Ah that's because the poffin recipe Prof Oak invented is for gluttonous pokemon like Snorlax and such" said Ash. "Oh I remember Prof Oak created a pokeblock for gluttonous pokemon" said Brock. "Yes and since we told him about poffins, he decided to invent poffins for gluttonous pokemon" said Ash. "That's great can I look at the recipe too?" asked Dawn. Ash handed her the recipe. "Okay I will make some more poffins" said Dawn.
