CHAPTER 6: Love for not being alone

CHAPTER 6: Love for not being alone

Times later, Ash won his third gym badge, and they went to the next city for the fourth one, it was going to be a very long way, but they had time to prepare themselves well for the gym battle.

One day, the trainers re-encountered with Bianca in middle of the way, and they stopped to eat lunch. Later, Iris wanted to give apples as a dessert, but the others didn't like the idea, they wanted to eat something more gourmet than just simple apples, but for Oshawott and Axew, they liked the idea. Iris wanted to give one to her Pokémon, but it went rolling down the hill, and he went to look for it. Everyone went after him so he wouldn't get into trouble.

In the lower part of the hill, they met with a new Pokémon, that was an Emolga, who had the apple in her possession. She looked very adorable and kind to the Pokémon that were there, later she passed the apple to Axew that he had dropped, and as a thank you, she could take the apples that Iris had. From nowhere, Bianca appeared and she wanted to catch her to be her Pokémon, and a battle started with her Minccino to catch her.

In middle of the battle, Bianca's Minccino used Hyper Voice to leave Emolga vulnerable, later he tried to use Tickles, but the sky squirrel used Discharge that electrocuted everyone that was there. Bianca wasn't going to give up and ordered to the chinchilla to use Attract, but the electric-flying also used Attract and beat the normal-type's move. Unexpectedly, Oshawott got in middle of the hearts and received Emolga's Attract, being in love with her. To avoid more trouble, Ash had to return his Pokémon to his Poké Ball, and Emolga escaped to the forest.

Axew tried to follow her and the others went after them. Without noticing, Axew, Iris and Emolga went down a cliff and ended in the darkest and dangerous part of the forest, and they ended bumping into a group of Swoobat that attack them and forced them to hide in a small gap in a rock wall. Ash, Cilan and Bianca went to go to look for them and they found them and they went to help them to defeat the Swoobat, and they did it, but Emolga had gone already.

Everyone returned to where they were lunching, and Cilan brought apples for dinner. Emolga appeared later and she wanted to belong to Iris. She used a Poké Ball and caught the flying squirrel. Now Emolga was part of Iris's team.

The next day, Bianca wanted to have a battle with Iris's Emolga, and she accepted. The battle wasn't how it was expected, it turns out that Iris's Pokémon didn't want to fight and she escaped using Volt Switch, and changed herself for another Pokémon of the trainers. After those problems, everyone decided to eat lunch and Ash took out his Pokémon for everyone to eat as well. Everyone was given an apple for each one. Emolga ate the fruit very fast for being her favorites, and she was hungry for more. After seeing the others, who were eating, she got an idea. She used Attract on them so that they could give the apples to her.

Once the Attract effect finished, the male Pokémon fought each other because they thought that someone of them ate their apples. The trainers tried to separate them, and Pikachu used Thunderbolt on everyone to calm the situation once and for all. The humans tried to know who was the one that ate the apples of the boys. Just then, Snivy, using Vine Whip, raised Emolga and showed to them. They saw that she had pain in the tummy by eating many apples. Cilan theorized that the sky squirrel was the one who ate the fruits, but Iris denied to believe that, saying that her Pokémon wouldn't do such cruelty, and the others said sorry for thinking wrong of her.

After the mess of who ate the apples, everyone rested for a moment. Emolga, who was still hungry for apples, went to the forest to get some. Oshawott and Axew noticed that and went after her. They looked for her and found her on the ground, possibly injured. The sky squirrel said that she wanted to get some apples from a tree, but three Watchog attacked her and took out from there, but all was a lie so that she got apples. Later, Oshawott went towards where the meerkats were and he cut some apples with Razor Shell to took them and give them to his partners. The three normal-type Pokémon got angry and attack them, but the three Pokémon from the trainers dodged and the Watchog ended crashing against a tree. Nobody expected that a Simisear fell from the tree, and he was very angry. The meerkats escaped and the giant monkey Pokémon came closer to attack Emolga, Axew and Oshawott.
