The Kamizardic Region Book 1: Beginnings

Chapter 6: Awaiting Fobin City

“We made it. There’s Fobin city!” Alta pointed by running ahead with Zane. When they got closer, they noticed a person was standing in the entranceway. When they got right up to the person, they noticed that the person was a girl about her age. “Let me through into Fobin City!” Alta could not wait another second. “That’s not how I work. The name’s Cassandra and I want a two on two Pokémon battle with you. If you win, I will let you through. If not, I’m sorry.” Cassandra explained. “My name is Alta and I don’t play games. Alta moaned while Grimsley caught up. “Fine I’ll battle.” Alta agreed. “I guess I’ll judge.” Grimsley stepped in not knowing much. “It’s a two on two and my first Pokémon is you Growlithe!” Cassandra sent him out. “A Growlithe is new.” Zane pulled out his pokedex. “Growlithe is the puppy Pokémon. A Pokémon with a loyal nature. It will remain motionless until it is given an order by its trainer.” Dexter confirmed. “You know Alta, I tried to get my first badge but apparently the gym leader was away.” Grimsley looked a bit uneasy but nobody saw him. “Trapinch come on out!” Alta sent him out. “Growlithe use flamethrower!” “Trapinch dodge with dig!” Trapinch went underground and missed the flamethrower. “Growlithe, get back in there with incinerate!” The attack went into the hole and hit Trapinch. Trapinch was ok and he came back up and hit Growlithe. “Growlithe, switch back to flamethrower!” “Trapinch, protect yourself with sandstorm!” The flamethrower had no effect on the funnel sandstorm. “Growlithe use bite.” “Trapinch use dig once more!” Again, Trapinch went underground to dodge the attack. “Growlithe use incinerate again!” The fire went into the ground but Trapinch stayed where he was. “Trapinch, come up here with bite!” Trapinch came up and bit Growlithe’s tail. “Growlithe!” The Pokémon yelped in pain. “Growlithe shake Trapinch off of you!” “Trapinch throw Growlithe away!” Trapinch used all of its strength and managed to throw Growlithe and he landed on the ground fainted. “Growlithe is unable to continue, Trapinch is the winner!” Grimsley announced. “Growlithe you were awesome, return. We will not lose. Oshawott, let’s go!” Cassandra switched Pokémon. “I remember that Pokémon from Professor Beach’s lab.” Alta pulled out her pokedex. “Oshawott is the small otter Pokémon. The scalchop on its stomach is made from the same elements as claws. It detaches the scalchop for use in battle.” Dexter confirmed. ‘Oshawott use scald!” “Trapinch use sandstorm!” The scald got absorbed into the sandstorm and Trapinch started to get burned. “Trapinch use bite!” Trapinch jumped out of the sandstorm and bit Oshawott’s head. “Oshawott use razor shell!” The attack did a lot of damage and knocked Trapinch back. “Trapinch use dig!” Trapinch hid underground. “Oshawott fire a water gun into that hole!” Trapinch flew up out of the ground and landed back on it fainted. “Trapinch is unable to battle, Oshawott wins.” Grimsley announced. “Trapinch you did a great job, return. Snivy, come on out!” Alta switched Pokémon. Snivy came out beautifully. “Oshawott use razor shell!” “Snivy use leaf blade!” The two of them collided together with neither side giving up. “Snivy use vine whip!” The vines slapped Oshawott and he fell backwards. “Oshawott use aqua jet!” The attack went this way and that way and went around Snivy to hit her from behind. “Yeah, we’re still working on that move…” Cassandra admitted. “Snivy use leaf tornado!” The tornado struck Oshawott making him do a flip. “Oshawott use scald!” The fiery water headed straight to Snivy. “Snivy use vine whip on the ground and then use leaf blade!” Snivy did a cartwheel like motion to avoid the scald and struck Oshawott with leaf blade. This was too much for Oshawott and he fainted. “Oshawott is unable to battle which means Snivy is the winner and the victory goes to Alta!” Grimsley concluded. “I’m glad that’s over.” Zane moaned. “Don’t be so glum chum. Now we can challenge the first gym leader.” Alta smiled. “I heard that the first gym leader is the user of dark types and goes by the name of...Grimsley.” Cassandra explained. Zane and Alta immediately turned around and folded their arms. He smiled sheepishly and then took off towards Fobin city. “Get back here!” Alta demanded running after him with Zane close behind. “Good Bye?” Cassandra questioned.
