Pokemon Gates to Infinity the Novel Series

episode 36 photographer

The gang decided to rest up having walked for many miles already and were starting to get hungry anyway, so this worked out for everyone.

Everyone was currently eating Brock's famous rice balls that were really good as usual, meanwhile Ash, Pikachu, and Squirtle were training together.

"Good work Squirtle, now use Bubble!" Ash ordered.

Squirtle proceeded to fire bubbles out of his mouth aiming at the trees and hitting the targets.

"Good! Pikachu, use Light Screen!" Ash told his best friend.

Ash and Pikachu had been working on expanding his move set, they do still practice some electric type moves, like Thunder Wave, Wild Charge (which they're still working on), and Electric Terrain. The raven-haired teen thought it was time to give Pikachu a more variety of moves to catch their enemies off guard. He was also thinking about doing that with all of his pokemon for when he begins training them for the Indigo League. He vowed that all of his pokemon would have a chance to enter the Indigo League not wanting them to feel left out. He was also going to start rotating his pokemon too, so he'll probably send Charizard, Ivysaur and Kirlia back so he can start training his Ralts, Riolu and Dratini. The reason he was working with Squirtle today was because he didn't want Squirtle to feel left out and besides he promised he would train with him today anyway along with Pikachu.

Pikachu managed to create a Light Screen much to the astonishment of the others, but Ash smiled in success. It worked!

"Great job both of you!" Ash complimented his friends.

"Squirtle Squirt (Thanks boss)." Squirtle grinned.

Pikachu gave him the peace sign, "Pika (Thanks)!"

"Pikachu and Squirtle are looking good, hey Ritchie are you going to train today?" Brock asked.

"Yeah, I plan on getting some training in too." Ritchie said.

"I still can't believe you two only need two badges left, time sure does fly doesn't it?" Misty said.

"Togi Togi (Time flies)!" Togepi smiled.

"Sure does doesn't it?" Brock agreed.

"I wonder what Cinnabar Island is like?" Molly wondered.

"I bet it's a big island!" Tomo stretched his arms out wide to emphasize his point.

"Well it is called Cinnabar Island." Zack commented.

Ash was about to call out another attack when he heard a clicking noise making him turn his head sharply towards the bushes where he heard the noise and soon saw something black poke its way out of the bush that looked eerily similar to a gun!

"Water Gun!" Ash ordered Squirtle pointing at the bush.

Squirtle used Water Gun right at the bush where they heard a voice, "Wait, please stop!" the male voice from the bush pleaded.

"Okay Squirtle that's enough." Ash halted his water pokemon.

Squirtle stopped with the water gun attack but was still on edge as was everyone else who hadn't really noticed anything until Ash ordered Squirtle to use Water Gun.

"Come out, now or I'll have my Commander electrocute you!" Ash demanded.

"Pika (Come out)!" Pikachu's cheeks were already sparking with electricity.

"Wait, please don't I mean you no harm!" the person came out of the bushes looking soaked. The person was a young boy with brown curly hair, wearing a red striped shirt, black fingerless gloves on his hands, sporting brown shorts, and brown shoes. There was a camera hanging around his neck.
