Sam's POV

"Alright, Bulbasaur! I choose... You!" I shouted while throwing his ball straight at my opponent's Charmander. "Use tackle!" I commanded as he sprang of his pokèball and then used the momentum from the throw and made the tackle even stronger. While his hit landed his flipped backward and landed on all fours. Charmander was pushed back, but he maintained his balance.

"Ember!" He ordered. Charmander smirked while Bulbasaur looked nervous. I could tell by the way his legs started shaking. Charmander unleashed a beam of fiery fury. Bulbasaur did his best to dodge all the flames. I clenched my fists while Charmander's attack finally finished. "Use leech seed!" I commanded. When I did, his bulb released a seed and was thrown at the lizard Pokemon. It tried to move away, but he was too late.

"Dammit." My opponent grunted while his Pokemon fell down on it's back and then cried in agony. "Yes! Good job!" I praised. Bulbasaur looked back and smiled while Charmander got back up. "Use ember again!" Bulbasaur immediately turned back to face his enemy. This time, he was hit. Bulbasaur fell on his back while I saw he took a lot of damage from the attack. After our turn began. Some health from Charmander was taken away and now he healed himself a bit, thanks to leech seed.

"Let's go for tackle!" I cried while he sprinted at the Pokemon and tackled it Charmander fell back and then lost its balance. He hit his back against a rock and then grunted. "Use ember!" He shouted. Charmander didn't get back up, he struggled to but was unable to. "Maybe you should just call it quits for him." I told him.

"No!" He shouted while I shot him a look. "Alright... FINISH HIM!" I told Bulbasaur. He charged at Charmander and then tackled it. After that he officially fainted. "I'll show you!" He called back his Pokemon and then threw a second Pokemon. "What?!" I said while it revealed to be a Pidgey. "Ok, maybe we can take it down too, Leech Seed!" Bulbasaur did as told and then Pidgey flew away from the attack while still in the air. "Gust!" He commanded.

Pidgey glided last Bulbasaur as he attempted to run away. Pidgey used his attack, aiming at him. Bulbasaur quickly sprang off a rock and dodged it. "Tackle!" I said. Bulbasaur did as told and then tackled down Pidgey from the sky. He landed on the ground while my partner went back and then Pidgey quickly got its self back up. "Gust one more time! And land it this time!" He shouted at Pidgey.

Pidgey did as told, but no rocks were around for Bulbasaur to jump on! He attempted to just run away or dodge it. But the bird Pokemon flapped its wings and then it hit him. Bulbasaur collapsed on the ground while I noticed he was finally gone for. It was super effective... "Hehe, got me worried for a second..." He said while calling back Pidgey. I called back Bulbasaur and then sighed. "Boo, Sam you suck!" Taurtis said while popping his head out the window.

"Here's 120 pokèdollars." I said while handing him the money. He smirked again and then said. "What's your name? You were actually decent." He said while I looked up at him, since I hung my head in shame earlier. "I'm Sam, who are you?" I asked while he covered part of his face with his purple hat. "The names Dom."

"Dom?... Hey! We went to school together, remember?!" I told him. He looked back up at me and then sweatdropped. "Right... You were that weird kid. Now I remember you." He said while chuckling. "Well anyways I'll see you later nerd, try to get better nice time." Dom walked away. I looked at Taurtis and then I noticed he had sushi in his hand. "You didn't order me any?" I asked him. He shook his head while taking another bite.

"So I guess you have a new rival." He informed me while I looked at him curiously. "What do you mean?" I asked.

"He told you to get better, that means he would like to battle you another time. So you guys never really liked each other before anyway." He said while I nodded. It was true, me and Dom never got a long back in school. "Well let me go heal Bulbasaur and then I'll join up with you." I said while walking back into the Pokemon center. I went to the front counter and then gave my pokèball to the nurse.

After a little bit of waiting got Bulbasaur back. I looked at the pokèball. He was now level 8, since he beat Charmander. Only 2 more levels to go until he can use vine whip...
