A large map was in the face of Nathan. He was wondering what route he should go to start his journey. "Hmm... this route looks nice. North to Chrysolite Forest, and then to Jade City the home of the bug gym". Nathan had the obvious advantage over bug pokemon with his Houndour which was a fire type, but he need to catch more pokemon to prove a chance to him. Nathan pondered on the subject of what pokemon he should catch, then he decided it should be either another fire type, flying type or rock type since they have an advantage over bug pokemon.
Nathan than examined the surrounding landscape of Route 01. "It seems like I would encounter water pokemon at the beach... so I should avoid that, and in this tropical environment their probably is an abudance of grass pokemon" he muttered to himself. Grass pokemon should prove to be useful fodder for his Houndour, but they are generally weak againts bugs. The boys eyes then pierced at the marker on the mark labeled Chrysolite Forest. Judging just by the name Chrysolite he could determine the inhabitants were mostly bug pokemon. Since chrysolite is very similiar to the word chrysalis and the nearby gym is a bug gym.
Were their is bugs... their is usually their predator birds not so far away. This could be a nice area to find some bird pokemon for his upcoming Gym battle, but it their might be a better place to catch pokemon. Then he saw a spot on he map that said Route 02 that was not far east from here. 'Hmm... maybe this is a better environment for the pokemon I want' he thought.
He then realesed Houndour from its pokeball. "All right Houndour... lets go east" he said to his faithfull canine companion. "Hound... houndour" the dog pokemon responded with a big smile on its face. The two started to walk east to find the spot were Route 01 merged with Route 02. "Houndour... while were traveling start sniffing out some wild pokemon we can fight... ok" Nathan said without averting his gaze foward. "Hound" it respounded and then placed it nose to the ground sniffing like a blood hound. Then all of a sudden Houndour went beserk, barking like a mad man. It then ran up to a bush about 5 meters ahead and pointed at it like a pointer breed of dog would. There was no doubt that a wild pokemon was hiding in that bush.

A level 4  Slakoth lumbers out from the bush and fell on the ground, staring lazily at Houndour. |

Houndour gave a growl at the sloth that lazily moved out of the bushes. "Aww... a Slakoth..." Nathan always had a soft spots for sloths cause their awesome, yet their laziness would be of little use to Nathan. The slot was just staring lazily at the two, oblivious of the danger it was in. "Houndour use ember" the boy yelled.
Then a small gulf of flames came out of the hell hound's mouth. The fire hit the sloth head on. The attack hit the sloth like a bag of bricks as it was quinching in pain. It appeared to be over, but it seemed that the ember just put the sloth in a blinded rage. With the energy that sloth usually saves by slacking off, it ran at Houndour at a rather unusually amount of speed for a sloth. Then with a jump in the air and its claws extended it attempted to strike the dog.
"Dodge Houndour" the boy yelled, but it was in vain as the claws scraped the dog. The Houndour yelped in pain, but it wasn't over yet. "Now Houndour... use Counter and follow up with an ember".
The dog then sent a fierce scratch to the Sloth that was twice as strong as the damage Houndour just recieved. While, the sloth was recoperating from the counter... Houndour sent a blast of flames at the sloth which hit it dead on. "This could be it" Nathan muttered as he saw the sloth struggling to get up from the flames.

Though the Slakoth had energy to continue, it's lazy nature caused it to feign unconsciousness to avoid exerting further effort.

"Nice job Houndour... now lets get going" Nathan said with a smirk. "Hound" the dog said in reply as the two kept on heading east. The nearby terrain started to become less tropical each 10 or so meters forward, which was a sign that they were nearing the end of Route 01 and the start of Route 02. "Remember Houndour... always be on full alert" Nathan said to his trusty companion. Pokemon could be lurking at all around them and they wouldn't even notice.
About 20 feet in front of them was a small babbling brook. The two sat on a nearby rock and decided to take a small water break. Nathan cupped his hands to get some cool crisp water, while Houndour just licked away at the brook like he was in the middle of the desert. "Hey... take it easy Houndour... your going to get a cramp if you keep on drinking like that" the boy exclaimed. "Hound" the dog replied in a goofy fashion.
Nathan then started to walk ahead and yelled back to Houndour "Lets keep moving". The black dog then bolted forward to catch up to his trainer. A light breeze blew by as Houndour was rushing to catch up, and it lingered something that caught his sense of smell. "Hound... dour" exclaimed the dog as it rushed forward in extreme speeds. The dog quickly darted by the boy... "Whoa... what got into you?" Nathan asked, but Houndour was too far ahead to hear him. Nathan proceeded to chase after his pokemon and spotted a small pokemon in the middle of the path.

You've encountered a level 5 Venonat, simply sitting in the middle of the dirt path.

When Nathan rushed closer to the unknown pokemon its identity became clear. It was a Venonat, the poison gnat pokemon. Since it was a bug type pokemon Houndour had the type advantage, but these things are crafty. In history the most famous ninjas always owned a Venonat or Venomoth. "Now... Houndour be carefull on this one. Don't fall for its tricks" the boy yelled at his trusty companion. "Now Houndour use Ember" the boy yelled as the black dog sent a burst of hot charcoal and other flaming objects at the gnat.
The hot embers hit the bug dead on, and seemed to dealt some serious damage to it, but that was no surprise do to fire is strong against bugs. It seemed over, but that feisty little bug wouldn't give up. All of a sudden its eyes started to glow... and it seemed it was piercing into the soul of Houndour.
"Now Houndour finish it off with another Ember" the tamer yelled. The black dog inhaled a deep breath of air, but when he exhaled nothing came out. "What?!" said the boy puzzled to himself when nothing happened. Houndour was confused of why nothing happened, and in the confusement the opportunist Venonat striked. The purple gnat charged straight at Houndour and hit it directly in the chest. The gnat then jumped back and placed its back in front of a tree.
Then it struck Nathan like a bag of bricks. That pokemon must know disable. It is the only reason Houndour couldn't use Ember like that. "Now Houndour quickly retaliate with a Counter" the young trainer yelled. The dog ran straight at the little bug hoping to get revenge from the tackle with twice the power, but the bug just waited for Houndour to get close, and with perfect timing it just simply hopped out of the way causing the dog to strike the tree.
The Venonat used its environment well, and its brains. It was a pure showcase that brain can overcome brawn. Then all of a sudden blue rings started to be emitted from the tiny bug's mouth. Houndour started to act crazy from the rings. He started thrashing around and running into nearby trees. According to his studies Nathan conluded that the little insect used supersonic or confuse ray.
"Snap out of it Houndour" the boy yelled at his precious pokemon, but it was of no use. The dog was still as crazy as ever. Meanwhile, Venonat was looking to finish this. It started charging at the hell hound at a fast speed. The gnat struck the dog in the side, but it may have done more help then harm. Venonats are known to be more special attacker, not physical, and the blow was just enough to snap Houndour out of confusion.
"Now Houndour... use Counter" Nathan yelled as his dog charged at the little insect. The blow hit the gnat with a pretty moderate amount of power since the original attack wasn't all that great, but it did add damage to the existing burns that the ember caused earlier. "Now Houndour... use leer" Nathan yelled as the dog gave a terrifying glare at the insect. The bug started to cower in fear. "Now Pokeball!!!" Nathan yelled as he threw the red and white orb at the gnat and watched it get sucked in. Now just hope that he did enough to catch it.

Nathan watched eagerly as the pokeball was shaking back and forth, but then all he heard was a ping. He did it, he cought his very first Pokemon. "All right!!" he yelled as he ran over to the pokeball. He picked it up and then stared at for a while. He couldn't believe that he cought a Venonat. Now Venonat might not be the strongest pokemon, and that is ok. Though, he does have alot of tricks up his sleeve which could tire down the opponent and Nathan saw some use in that.
Then Nathan just started to walk forward down the trail. He was down celebrating on his recent capture, it was time to go. "Come Houndour" he said with a stern voice. The black dog ran foward to catch up with his trainer. The forest was thining, so they must be close to the exit of this Route. About 10 more minutes in their travel, they saw the end of the forest. The two quickly rushed out and were amazed to see what was infront of them. It was a giant farmland. There were barns, windmills, and unkept cornfields everywhere. "Well... I think the cornfields would be a good place to find some flying pokemon" he said with a grin. That was just what he needed to help him win againts the bug gym.

"Now then... since were finally here lets go looking for some Pokemon" Nathan said as he threw Venonats pokeball on the ground. The purple bug appeared before him. "Alright you two... search for wild Pokemon, and the two of you together their might be some chance that we'll find double pokemon" Nathan said with a grin. "Veno... Hound" the two respounded in unison. Together they are the ultimate pokemon tracker. Houndour's have keen sense of smell that would track down their prey, while Venonat's eyesight sees all and it is unparralled in the pokemon world.
The two ran off into the dense corn fields searching for their next targets. "Well... now I just play the waiting game... its like hunting and fishing" the boy said with a smirk. He went over to a nearby boulder and layed down on it. He then grabbed a piece of a wheat plant and stuck it in his mouth. "I wonder how long I'll have to wait" he said while staring up at the clounds lingering so gentely above. It was peaceful and the boy didn't care how long it took... as long as he got results.
About ten minutes later Nathan was fighting to stay awake when he heard them. It was Houndour and Venonat, and they seemed like they were each chasing something. Their voices were getting closer and closer, and finally both of them popped out the corn fields right behind two unknown pokemon.

Woah! You've encountered 2 Scyther, One level 6, the other level 8! Searching with two isnt always the best idea because Sometimes you bite off more than you can chew. The Scyther are angry, so much so that they they wont stop chasing until either party has been knocked out. Good luck! |

Nathan was struck by fear by the two pokemon that they found. They were Sycthers, and by the looks of it they didn't seem all that happy!!! The gigantuan bugs seemed to by alot stronger than Houndour and Venonat, so they will be very worthy adversaries, yet they will be even greater allies if Nathan managed to catch one. Their did seem to be some sort of caste system between the two Sycthers... the bigger one seemed to be the leader. And that is the one Nathan wanted to catch. "Houndour... go after the larger one, so Venonat the smaller one is all yours" Nathan said with a grin. The all of a sudden the Scyther started to charge straigth at the two at a great speed. They were moving so fast that their was a trail of white light behind them. "Now hurry use Ember Houndour, and Venonat use Tackle" the boy yelled frantacally hoping that their was still time. The Scythers hit their mark; Venonat was sent flying because the tackle seemed like it did no affect, yet Houndour got his attack off in time. It cushined his blow, and it also sent charcoal into the face of the stronger Sycther. Even though that their is a type advantage the Ember seemed that it gave not that much damage to Sycther. The weaker Sycther was going to finish off Venonat with another quick attack, but when it was rushing over to it, something seemed off. Then blue waves just hit the preying mantis... and it seemed to lose its mind. Venonat used its supersonic attack to confuse its predator. It then was charging at the other Sycther that was getting up from its attack, and before the LV:8 Sycther could realize, its friend sent a quick attack to its back. The confused Sycther must have thought that it was its enemy, but the only thought that went through the stronger Sycther's mind was treachery. In the Sycther caste if one sycther defeated the leader in battle... then the victor would be the new leader. The stronger Scyther thought that was what the weaker one was trying to do, so Scyther (8) had to finish him. The two started to fight, and all you could see were swift movements, and hear the clashing of metal. The show was unbelievable. Such grace, such power, such precision... Nathan had to have one. He decided to enjoy the show... and let them finish each other off... and the stronger one will be his new companion. They seemed to be evenly balanced at first, none of them were landing a hit on the other, but then tides turned. The weaker Sycther went for a bold slash across the chest of the stronger, but that proved to be a mistake. The older and stronger Sycther had more experience and took the slash on the chest, but by doing so he set himself up for a lethal attack. The weaker Sycther left his right arm wide open... and with one fall swoop the stronger Sycther sliced it right off. All that could be heard were the blood-curdling cries of the weaker Sycther in pain for its missing limb. The stronger Sycther was about to chop off the weaker one's head, but Nathan intervened. He ordered Houndour to send a wave of Embers at the two, which hit the unsuspecting Sychters head on. The ashes were hot, and were super effective towards both of the insects. Though, neither one of them seemed to be knocked out by the flames. The weaker one seemed like it was going down soon, but the embers were a wake up call to it. They snapped the Sycther out of confusion and the flames closed up the wounds of the injured Sycther. The two then charged straight at Venonat and Houndour. They were planning on using Quick attack again. "Now Houndour use Ember... and Venonat after that attack is done send a tackle into the gut of the Sycther with both of its arms" the boy yelled. Then a stream of ashes came out of the hell hound's mouth and hit both of the Sychters. The Sycthers were temporarily stunned by the blow, and then the Alpha Sycther felt a blow in its wound on its chest. Venonat successfully hit it with its tackle, and right on its wounded area. The Venonat then ran back as quick as it could because it feared retaliation from the green bug. "Now finish them Houndour... Ember attack" the boy yelled as he sent another wave of hot ashes at the two. "Follow it up with a Leer to the stronger two-armed Sycther, and Venonat send a supersonic its way to" yelled the boy as the hot ashes engulfed the two insects. Right when the ashes past it seemed that the one-arm Sycther had it limit of battle, but the Alpha Sycther was still fighting strong. It had no time to dodge the gaze of Houndour, or the super sonic waves of Venonat, and was quickly removed of its energy and started to pound itself in the head out of confusion. "Now's my chance... Pokeball" he yelled as he threw the orb at the stronger bug sucking it in. Only time would tell if he was successful at the capture or not. Trying to Catch Sycther level 8. |

Wiggle. Wiggle.
POOF!
SHOOT! It appeared to be caught!
Though you tried, the Scyther is still in fighting shape and wont submit so easily to your tactics. Breaking out from the pokeball, its confusion has faded and a quick attack carries it rapidly towards Venonat! [/blockquote] |

"Dammit" whispered Nathan too himself as he saw that Scyther managed to break free from its container. The Scyther was filled with rage and dashed over to Venonat at an amazing pace. "Hmph... perfect... Houndour use Ember right when Scyther will hit" he muttered to dog, which picked it up with its extrodinary hearing.. The boy simple waited for the Scyther to get closer... and closer to its target and right before it was going to hit Venonat Nathan simply returned the pokemon back to its pokeball, making Scyther hit nothing but air. That was not all, a storm of red-hot charcoal and coal was sent at the bug and engulfed it.
The Scyther almost got caught earlier, and this ember could of done it in. Then when all the ash was being blown away their was a shadowy outline that could be seen. It was Scyther! And he was still standing!. Then the bug ran straight at Houndour with a trail of white light following it. It using quick attack again to strike Houndour. "Houndour charge up your Ember... and nail it right in the face when it is about to hit you". The bug then rammed straight in the side of Houndour, but when it was hit Houndour turned its head around and sent a heaping hot pile of ash straight into the face of Scyther. This could be it... Nathan yelled as he threw yet another pokeball at Scyther. This time he was hoping to catch it... because if it didn't... the fight could be over soon since that last attack seemed to do alot on Houndour.

The ball would shake until a red dot would disappear and the Pokeball would lay still. Congrats! Scyther was too injured to put up a fight.

"Yes!!!" the boy roared as he captured the Scyther. With a pokemon as powerfull as that under his belt then beating the first gym should be relatively easy for him now. He then released Venonat and the newly cought Scyther from their pokeballs. "All of you guys are pretty messed up from that fight" he said with a smirk. The boy then grabbed out three potions from his bag and used them on all three pokemon. Making them as good as new.
After a quick rest and time to heal their wounds Nathan decided that it was time to get stronger. "Alright you guys... go out and find some wild pokemon to fight" the boy said with a grin. "Houndour... Venonat go search in the field, and Scyther... go search in the air got" he exclaimed. "Scyth... Veno... Hound" they respounded as Venonat and Houndour ran into the bushes while Scyther flew up into the sky above. Nathan went back to his perch and just waited what his group would find this time. Hopefully it is not more Scythers. Then about 15 or so minutes later they were back. Venonat and Houndour wear each chasing two pokemon back to the trail, while up in the air Scyther was chasing another pokemon.

When Houndour and Venonat exited the corn fields it seemed that they both were getting pecked by a group of Doduo. They were both tired from the last fight… and this just made it even worse. It appeared that they took some damage from the two. "Tsch... stupid flightless birds" Nathan would remark. Then flying back to Nathan was his newly caught Scyther which was being pursued by a Zangoose. 'Hmm... a Zangoose... this will be interesting' the boy thought. "Now... Venonat and Houndour... get some distance from the two. Venonat use Supersonic on one of the Doduo... and Houndour send an ember at the other and Scyther send a quick attack to Zangoose" the boy yelled. The hot ash that was sent out of the mouth of Houndour was a success as it hit the two heads of the Doduo. The large flightless bird squawked in pain as the embers was in its eyes. The supersonic hit the other Dodou and put it into a state of confusion. This was particularly effective because already due to Doduo’s constant fighting between heads. It caused that Dodou to repeatedly peck each other in the head. Meanwhile in response of Scyther's quick attack, Zangoose used one of his own which negated the attacks. Those two appeared to be in a stale mate as of now.
Then one of the Dodou shook the soot off of its face and sent an array of pecks at Houndour; all of which connected. The hell hound yelped in pain and jumped back to save itself from the barrage of pecks. Probably about 3 hit him. "Now... Scyther... Venonat you know what to do" Nathan yelled. Then Venonat started charging at Zangoose with its eyes glowing bright blue while Scyther charged at the confused Doduo with its scythes out. Venonat disabled the moongose’s quick attack, and it seemed that it had no more attacks left. It was a sitting duck. Scyther sent a quick attack at the Dodou that was repeatedly pecking each other. Then with swift movements of his scythes he gave wounds to temporally disable the confused bird. He wouldn’t be causing any more trouble for the upcoming trainer. The other Doduo was shocked quick loss of its friend and didn't realize the second wave of embers coming straight towards it. The embers would hit the face of the Doduo, and give it immense pain as the hot ash went into its eyes.
"Houndour keep your distance from Doduo, while Scyther give a tackle to quick attack while its blinded. Venonat use supersonic on Zangoose" Nathan yelled. The quick attack hit the bird right in the gut and sent it back a bit, while the supersonic waves that were being sent to Zangoose… appeared to have little to no affect. The mongoose successfully escaped confusion. While Dodou was recovering Houndour started to charge up another ember... and in the process Scyther jumped out of the line of fire. Just as soon as the Doduo removed the new soot from its eyes... another ember was sent straight towards its chest. Then Scyther followed by with another quick attack. Nathan hoped that it would finish the bird.
Now it was just Zangoose and the trio. The fight was over, since Zangoose couldn’t do any more damage since he can’t even attack. Houndour sent a blast of embers at the mongoose, but he barely managed to dodge the attack. Though, Scyther was right there and used a quick attack to its gut sending Zangoose flying back. While on the ground Houndour sent another wave of embers, and this one was a hit. Zangoose may be agile, but it couldn’t recuperate from that last attack. “Now… I think we almost got it” the boy yelled in glee as he watched the struggling Zangoose get up. It appeared to be reaching its limit, and it was astounding that it could still fight after all that. Venonat rushed in for a tackle attack, but it was simply knocked aside from a fierce blow from the mongoose’s right claw. “Now Houndour send an ember to the left of Zangoose” the boy yelled. Then a wave of ash came from the hell hound’s mouth which caused than mongoose to jump to the right to dodge. Unfortunately for him, that was right in the path of Venonat which sent a tackle right into its gut. The force sent Zangoose back several feet and right when it started to get up, all it could see was the fierce red eyes of Scyther gazing right at it. It was a leer attack which sucked out all of the energy from Zangoose. Then all it could see was an ember attack from Houndour sent straight at it. Zangoose could’ve dodge that attack if its stamina wasn’t drained from leer, but the lack of energy sent it covered in hot ash. “Now’s my chance” Nathan yelled as he threw a pokeball at the Zangoose covered in burning char.
