Kalos Adventures

The Dragon and the Iceberg, Pt 1

"Sup, guys," Ronnie said as he arrived at their meeting place. He now had a black backpack. "You guys ready?"

"To the circus!" James simply stated, and ran to the northern exit of the town.

"I'm glad I'm an only child," Ronnie said following James, with the rest not too far behind.

They found James waiting for them at the exit, and when they reached him, they all stepped into route 4, also known as Parterre Way.

"Hey Ronnie," Rex said. "Do you know what gender Noibat is, and which moves it has?"

"Don't know about the moves," he responded. "But I do know he's a male. Isn't it obvious?"

"You can tell?" Cassandra asked surprised.

"Of course," he said as a matter of factly. "Didn't they teach you guys anything in Health class?"

"Moving on!" Beverly said quickly, taking out her pokédex.

"Noibat," it began when she pointed it at Noibat, who was sitting on Ronnie's head as always. "Even a robust wrestler will become dizzy and unable to stand when exposed to its 200,000-hertz ultrasonic waves. This Noibat is a male, and it knows the following moves: Supersonic, Tackle, and Gust."

"Wow," Ronnie said amazed. "That's a cool device. And you know some sweet moves, Noibat."

"Noi, Noibat!" he said proudly.

Route 4 had extensive gardens, so after a couple minutes of walking, they got separated. Rex with James, Beverly with Cassandra, and Ronnie with Noibat.

"Way to go, bro!" James screamed at his brother. "Now we're lost!"

"Scream at me again, and I will crush you," Rex said rather calmly.

As they walked some more, with James being quiet, not wanting to be crushed by his brother, a wild Pokémon jumped in their way out of nowhere.

"Ralts!" it snarled at them.

"Who's that Pokémon?" James asked stupidly.

"Well obviously, it's a Ralts!" Rex said, irritated by his brother's ignorance. "Did you not just hear it?"

"Whatever, bro! I'm catching it! Let's go, Fennekin!"

James threw his pokéball, and out came his starter.

Both Pokémon looked at each other fiercely, looking ready to battle.

"Flame Charge!"

"Fennee!"

Fennekin engulfed in flames and charged at Ralts, who instantly disappeared.

"What!" asked a confused James. "What sort of move was that?!

"Teleport, obviously," Rex stated flatly.

This was going to be a long battle.

"Where did those knuckleheads go?!" asked a frustrated Beverly.

"I'm sure we'll find them soon," Cassandra said, trying to calm her friend.

They walked for a couple minutes in silenced, when they spotted a couple of storage looking people inspecting the area. They were wearing strange red suits, and had extremely weird hair cuts.

"What are they doing?" Cassandra asked.

"No idea," Beverly responded.

"I know exactly what they're doing."

They both turned around, and in front of them stood two more of those strange looking fellows.

"Hi?" Beverly said nervously.
