Pokemon Indigo League stories

Putting the Air in Aerodactyl

" Hey, how's Ash doing?"

Before the Professor or Tracey could reply, a thunderbolt came from the bushes. A raven haired girl and raven haired boy jumped out, followed by a Pikacu and Sqpigatito.

The girl threw a Pokeball, and the boy followed suit.

" Altaria, let's go!"

" Pidgeotto, I choose you!"

The two majestic birds came out, and the children hopped on.

" Ash, take Charmander out and debrief him on what we have to do. Sprigatito let's go." The girl yelled

Gary blinked. " Why am I not surprised?" he muttered.

" Ash!" Oak called. " What are you doing?"

Ash threw Charizard's pokeball and grinned. " Hiya, Professor! Hi Gary and Tracey!"

Then he furrowed his brow. " Hey, Gary? Are those the people you work with?"

Gary nodded. " This is Dora and her little sister, Crystal."

" Nice to meet you!" Crystal called. " Gary's told us all about you!"

Before Ash could reply, the girl yelled,, " CHAARIZARD LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Crystal grinned. " HI WISTY!"

The girl turned and aved. " HI CRYSTAL!"

Wisty swooped down, and grabbed Crystal's arm and pulled her on.

" What's the plan?" She asked.

Wisty shrugged. " I dunno. I thought you knew."

" Me?!" Crystal looked baffled.

Wisty sirked. " I'm joking.."

Crystal sighed. ' Oh good."

" Hey, Crystal?"

" Mmmmm?"

" Make sure Altaria doesn't go upside down."

" Huh?"

But before Crystal could comprehend what was going on, Wisty jumped.

Everyone but Ash watched with horror.

Ash smirked and crossed his arms. " CHARIZARD, USE FLAMETHROWER UP THERE! LIGHT THAT PLACE UP! I CAN BARELY SEE ANYTHING!"

Charizard obeyed.

Oak turned to Ash. " How are you so calm about this?!"

" She's my sister," Ash replied. " She knows what she's doing."

Then he quickly muttered, " I hope."

Meanwhile, Wisty slipped from the Aerodactyl's back as it flung her everywhere. She yelped and grabbed its leg.

" Jigglypuff, let's go!" Wsty yelled.

The pink Pokemon came out, holding a marker.

ON the ground, everyone saw. Ash groaned. " Oh, not this again."

Gary's eyes widened. " Wait.... Isn't that....."

Ash nodded. " Yep."

" Jigglypuff, now!"

" Jigglypuff!" It said, then took a deep breath. Ash grabbed Gary's hand and pulled him away. " We have to go, now!"

" But what about Crystal?" Dora said as she squinted up.

Crystal looked calm.

As if the song wouldn't affect her.

" She'll be fine. But we have to go!"

Dora sighed, and followed the Professor.

Meanwhile, up there, Crystal wasn't being affected.

IN fact, none of the Pokemon were.

Because Wisty had trained her Jigglypuff to do it to certain frequencies.

And even with those certain frequencies, specific Pokemon.

Then again Jigglypuff did this once every month, so Wisty had to save it for when they really needed it.

Otherwise the Pink creature would hit everything in its radius.

Except the owner.

That would be Wisty.

Anyway, as the Aerodatly began to droop is eyes, it began to fall.

" Uh, Wisty, you should get off!" Crystal aid nervously.

Wisty waved her concern off. " No need. Aero here won't fall asleep for another five ten minutes! No need to-"

Suddenly, the ground disappeared beneath her.

Aerodactly was falling.

" Wuh oh...." Wisty muttered

Then she went plummeting down.

" AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Crystal gasped. " Charizard, go!"

The dragon caught its owner's sister just as she was about to hit the ground.

Wisty sighed in relief. " Oh, god. That was close."

"Nice catch, Charizard!" Ash shouted, grinning from ear to ear as Wisty dangled safely in Charizard's grasp.

Chystal shot her friend a mock glare. "Next time, how about a little warning before you jump off a moving Aerodactyl?"

"Where's the fun in that?" Wisty teased, her eyes sparkling with mischief.

Dora laughed nervously. "You two are crazy! But I'm glad you're okay, Wisty."

Wisty brushed off the dust from her clothes, a grin creeping back onto her face. "I told you, I'm a pro at this! Just part of the job."

Gary rolled his eyes. "You know, one day, your luck is going to run out. This isn't a game."

Wisty waved him off, clearly unconcerned. "Pshh, I've got this under control."

Dora, still squinting up at the chaos, asked, "So, what's the plan now? Are we fighting Team Rocket again, or is this a rescue mission?"

Ash finally landed Charizard, giving Wisty the chance to hop off. "A little of both, I think. If they're messing with legendary Pokémon, we need to put a stop to it."

Crystal nodded, determination flashing in her eyes. "Right! Let's show them what we've got!"

Gary crossed his arms. "Okay, but how are we supposed to find them? They could be anywhere."

Wisty smirked, glancing at Jigglypuff. "I've got an idea. Jigglypuff can use its song to track them down. We just need to be careful not to get caught in its frequency."

Ash grinned, the excitement bubbling within him. "Then let's do it! Jigglypuff, are you ready?"

"Jigglypuff!" the pink Pokémon chirped enthusiastically.

"Alright, let's spread out and find them!" Ash called, leading the way.

As they regrouped and strategized, Crystal took a moment to catch her breath. "I can't believe I'm on an adventure with Ash Ketchum! This is so cool!"

Dora gave her sister an encouraging smile. "Just stick close to the team, and you'll do great. We're all in this together."

The group set off into the brush, with Wisty leading the way, a determined look in her eyes. With Jigglypuff at her side, they were ready for whatever Team Rocket had planned next.

Suddenly, a rustling sound echoed from the bushes nearby. Everyone froze, instincts kicking in.

"Did you hear that?" Gary whispered, his eyes darting around.

Ash nodded, motioning for Charizard to be ready. "It might be them. Stay sharp, everyone."

Wisty took a deep breath, confidence coursing through her veins. "Let's see what they're up to this time."
