Episode 6:
Author(s): IcyPikachu, InsaneLlama, and RandomTask
Last time, Icy was traveling through Digletts’ Cave. He defeated two members of Team Rocket and the lead Dugtrio decided to join him on his journey. And now ...
Icy leaves south from Viridian City for Pallet Town. As he traveled through Route 1, he saw some other types of pokémon but didn’t have time to capture any. He was determined to make it to Pallet Town by noon and after a few hours of hiking he finally reached it. “This is where Prof. Oak lives, it’s not even a large town.” Icy looked down at his Abra. “Oh well, let’s find Oak.” Abra now walked freely outside its pokéball. Icy decided that he would wait to evolve Abra, but he still needed someone for company. He found a rather large house atop a hill. Reading the sign posted outside the house, he knew he had finally reached his destination. Icy ran up the path to the door and eagerly rang the bell. An older gentleman, still looking somewhat young, answered the door.
“Yes, hello. I wasn’t expecting any visitors at this hour. What is your name young man?” he asked Icy.
“I am Icy, a psychic pokémon trainer from Saffron City. I’ve come here to receive my pokédex and official trainer qualifications from you.”
“Oh. Well then Icy, you must have had quite a trip. Have you captured any pokémon before getting here?”
“Yes. I caught a Pidgey, an Oddish, and a Dugtrio.”
“That’s very impressive! Here you go,” he says as he gives Icy a pokédex and a small pokéball.
“What’s this for?” Icy asked.
“It’s an extra pokémon I had. Some trainer was going to get it, but sadly some....” he stopped in the middle of his sentence. “Never mind. It’s a Bulbasaur. I’m sorry it isn’t a psychic pokémon but judging from the pokémon you’ve already captured, you seem able to handle multiple types. You’ve got a lot of potential!”
“Thanks professor. Is it ok if I spend the night here?”
“Of course. By the way, your pokédex can tell you all about the pokémon you’ve captured or ones you see in the wild. You should head for Pewter City to get your first badge. You need all eight trainer badges in order to compete in the Pokémon Leagues. I believe the gym leader in Pewter is Brock. He specializes in...”
“... Rock pokémon, I know,” Icy interrupted. “I’ve got a special surprise for him. But I’m headed for the Viridian Forest next. I want the capture some Caterpie.” Icy’s face brightens upon saying the word Caterpie. { He has an affection for them because they are sooooooooo cute! }
“Caterpie??? Why would you want so many of them?”
“BECAUSE, CATERPIE ARE THE CUTEST POKÉMON IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!!! I LOVE CATERPIE!!!” Icy shouted.
Professor Oak is stunned for a second but then regathers his thoughts. “Whatever. They are kinda cute as far as bugs go. They will evolve into Butterfree and can learn psychic attacks later.”
“Great. Oh, look at the time...”
“I’ll treat you to dinner. I hope you like pineapple pizza!” Icy just moans to himself. First thing tomorrow morning he’d be heading for Viridian Forest.
Meanwhile…
The sun comes up and Insanellama and Lonewolf pack up their beds.
“Well I wonder where the herd’ll be a movin to today...”
“We’re headin southwest,”(in pikaspeak but amazingly Insanellama understands it).
“Pi pi Ka chu chu?” (Insanellama can now speak the language too, strange... in this message he said, “about how far.” Further pikaspeak messages said in this to and by him will be in English but with a ^PI^ after them).
“What, do you actually understand them Insane?”
“Well, I reckon I do, guess spendin the night with ‘em kinda taught it to me.... hrm..”
“AMAZING!”
“We’d better hurry up and go to Pallet Town to check on Oak. Can you like 20 of you come with us in case we see Team Rocket?”^Pi^
“PI.”(Sure)
Insanellama positions the 20 Pikachu on Ponyta’s back
“Lonewolf is it ok if we double up on Vulpix’s saddle?”
“Sure.”
“OK LETS RIDE!” About 8 hours pass and they can see Pallet Town coming up in the distance.
“Ok let’s slow down for a minute, let the horses cool down before they stop.” Another half an hour and they are at Professor Oak’s. Insanellama knocks on the door.
“How are ya Oak? Mind if we stay the night?”
“Sure, but Icy is already staying too, hope you don’t mind.”
“Well I don’t if he don’t.”
“Ok come right this way. By the way, why are there twenty Pikachus on that Ponyta?”
“Long story, there’s about 280 more where they came from. There is a herd of ‘em in Viridian forest, I made friends with them, spent the night with ‘em, and the strangest thing is, now I speak the language.”
“AMAZING.”
“Howdy there Icy, how are ya?”
“Fine I guess, how’d you know my name?”
“Well I’ve known old Professor Oak here since I could speak.”
“Hi there pikachu.”^Pi^
“What how can you speak my language?”^Pi^
“Calm down there little fella, I don’t mean no harm, if you want, you can go talk to some of my friends over there.”^Pi^
“What, you can talk to pikachu’s in their own language??”
“Well, yea, it’s a trick I picked up in viridian forest. I only have 4 actual pokémon, the other 20 won’t fight except against TR and wild pokémon if I am out, they’re some friends that agreed to travel with me. Oh by the way, Team Rocket has it in for me, and Professor Oak. I have some friends watchin out for him, but I came to check just in case.”
“Oh I see.”
“Well, I forgot to introduce Lonewolf here, sorry bout that.”
“It’s ok, Hi Icy.”
“Hi Lonewolf.”
-- SCENE SWITCH --
“You’re mad heavy Bubba!” Random shouted at his Bulbasaur. Bubba writhed with severe burns from a Charmeleon accident on a small port east of Route 23.
Random ran off of the ferry and right through Pallet Town until he found the largest building around. The sign said “Oak Research Lab.” Random slammed through the doors and laid the Bulbasaur on the front counter and yelled for some help.
“HELP ME OUT HERE!!! My Bulbasaur is dying!!!”
An aide walked to the front desk, shocked by the sight: Bubba’s bulb was burnt brown and badly singed. He was bleeding and nearly unconscious. “bulba... bull..” Bubba could barely bark. Without a word, the aide grabbed the Pokémon and ran to the back room; Random followed anxiously behind.
Professor Oak was with company when he noticed the racket of Pokémon surgery and the new guest. Oak gave Random a quick look over. He wore tattered ripped jeans, a Spinal Tap t-shirt, and a flannel shirt. An acoustic guitar was hung over his back. His short brown hair was dirty and in need of a industrial strength comb. Oak was reminded of his own youth by the teenager’s “rebel” attitude.
“Welcome to the Oak Research Institute” Oak proclaimed, “I am Profes-”
“Professor Oak!” Random interrupted, “I know all about you. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
“Allow me to introduce you to Icy, Lonewolf and Insane Llama.” Oak held his hand to each trainer as he announced his name.
“Nice ta meet jer kwantance, Random.” Llama openly greeted Random with a forced handshake. Random flinched. Icy and Lonewolf nodded.
“We are having some nice pineapple pizza, would you care to join us?” Icy invited Random, holding his slice high in the air. A slight grin could be seen across his face.
“Where is my Bulbasaur? Is he alright?” Oak checked the back room and returned immediately.
“He will be fine in a few hours. He seems to be very strong. You must train him well.” Oak was very peculiar about befriending Random.
“Thank you, I would love some pizza.”
“Well it’s gettin to be time for shuteye, I guess we’d better lay out our beds on the floor.”
“Yup.”
They all go to sleep. Tomorrow, the Viridian Forest awaits…
