Pokemon Fan Fiction ❯ Tapestry ❯ Chapter 4

I shall discover another plot, presumably when Ash is older so I can do romance.

Disclaimer: I don't own pokemon, as it belongs to Nintendo and Shogakukan Comics. This is non-profit, non-copyright infringing fanfic written by me and I own it.

Chapter 4

 

“Hi! Remember me! I met you in Viridian Forest!”

Ash groaned as a Bug Catcher jumped out of a bush. He had just left Pewter, but… what was with all the trainers blocking the way to Mount Moon?

With a resigned sigh, he sent out Fearow.

Two Caterpie went down immediately.

Ash had not walked many more steps when a junior trainer with two Pidgeys attacked. This time, Pichu took center stage in battle.

Ash made a quick decision and walked into the tall grass by the road. That way, hopefully he could avoid some of the trainers…

A Rattata jumped out with a Tackle attack.

“Kabuto, use Scratch!”

Rattata fainted.

Ash suddenly realized he had forgotten to buy Repel. Oh dear…

He began walking back to Pewter, but that was when another pokemon attacked him. An ember attack hit the grass by his feet.

Ash jumped.

Pichu immediately used Thunderwave and then Thundershock, while Ash readied a poke ball.

Not a grass blade stirred.

“Hmm?”

However, when Ash pushed aside the taller grass, he found to his surprise that it was not a fire pokemon.

A paralyzed Ditto lay there.

“A ditto here? Oh well.” Not bothering to argue with Lady Luck, Ash dropped a poke ball and caught Ditto.

Then, he kept walking. In a few minutes, he was back in Pewter. He healed his pokemon at the pokemon center bought four repels at the mart, and then bravely ventured out into the tall grass again.

A wild Rattata attacked.

 

Deciding that this might be a good chance to test out his new pokemon, Ash released Ditto.

Hi! Ditto said playfully.

Pichu waved.

“Ditto, could you transform?”

Easy! I can do lots of pokemon! Ditto bragged, even though Ash couldn't understand. As a Machop, Ditto made swift work of Rattata.

Nice. Kabuto said briefly.

“Wow!” Ash hugged his pokemon, and then they went on a-walking. Despite the fact that Repel had been applied, many Rattata and Spearow still attacked.

At least it was good training.

 

Ash was exceedingly relieved when he spied a Pokemon Center right outside of Mount Moon.

Thank goodness! His pokemon were running out of Power points to attack with, especially Ditto.

A pity it could only use Transform as a Ditto…

Ash went inside, and healed his pokemon quickly, before he made lunch for them. After the meal was concluded, they went to battle a few trainers.

Vicky sent out her Clefairy.

 

“Pichu, Thunderbolt~.” Ash chirped. Pichu nodded, feeling the warm tingle of power inside of her body, before she released it all in an explosive burst of energy. Clefairy fainted.

“Oh no! Jigglypuff go! Sing!”

Ash covered his ears, and Ditto ingeniously transformed into a barrier.

Jigglypuff sang for roughly ten minutes, before it ran out of PP for that move, so instead, it used Pound.

Pound hit Kabuto on the shell. Kabuto yawned and used Slash. No more Jigglypuff.

 

“Done.” Ash said.

Vicky burst into tears.

“Why does this always happen?” Ash asked no one in particular as he made fast his escape.

It was short-lived.

Apparently Vicky had a boyfriend who was a junior trainer.

 

“ATTACK!”

Ash ducked, and Ditto transformed into a barrier again. A flurry of leaves hit and fell off.

A boy with a Bulbasaur and an Oddish stood there glaring.

“How dare you make Vicky cry?”

“She challenged me.” Ash muttered.

“I'll make you pay! Bulbasaur, Vine Whip!”

The vine whips once again hit the barrier, stuck, and froze.

That was when Ash dropped the barrier, and Fearow came out, as a volley of pecks rewarded the trainer.

Both he and both his pokemon were KO'd.

 

“Well, I hope that gets rid of all the interruptions.” Ash said in annoyance. “I'm only trying to go on my journey.”

Seems awfully strange… Pichu mentioned.

“I know. Why is everyone suddenly trying to attack me?”

This time, Pichu blinked.

You understand me?

“Yes… wait a minute! I do!” Ash said. “Wow…”

Pichu grinned.

Must have activated somehow. Kabuto said.

Ditto laughed. Well, that's one unknown benefit of training my species. We heighten your natural abilities.

“Cool!” Ash said, hugging Ditto as well.

Ditto just smiled.

Fearow ate a berry.

It was nothing to fluster her…

She ate another berry. Yum… dark and plump and juicy!

Ash jumped.

 

A rock hit the area he had been standing in.

“I challenge you!”

“Not again…” Ash sighed. “Pichu?”

Pichu sparked her cheeks and fried the Nidoran M, as well as the Ekans, that attacked.

Pamela huffily threw down half her cash and stomped off. Ash picked up the money, and then decided to take another break before Mount Moon. So off to the Pokemon Center he went to heal, but then…

He saw more trainers approaching. * Here we go again… *
