Pokemon Black and White Rebirth: Chapter 8.2

Pokemon Black and White Rebirth
Chapter 8.2: The Spies who Snivyed me.

Iris and Axew glided across the nearby tree tops, swinging after the thieving Snivy. She barely managed to dodge the high speed Leaf Storm attacks coming from the wild Snivy.

The wild Grass Snake Pokemon was met with Ash, his Aura staff in his hands, and his faithful partners, Pikachu and Purrloin, on his shoulders. Iris dropped down as Axew jumped out for a fight. Bianca quickly caught up to the two, and threw her Pignite into battle. Ash reached for Tepig, but Oshawott jumped the gun and came out of instead.

“Yo dude, who we fighting, I’ll pound them!” Oshawott boasted.

“No Oshawott, go back in your ball!” Ash, Purrloin, and Pikachu all yelled, while returning him to his Poke Ball. The Kanto trainer quickly pulled out Tepig.

The Grass Snake eyed down her foes, showing no fear as she pulled out a Leaf Blade from her body.

“Have at me, fire swine and small dragon! Dare to best me in combat, and let your human lords and ladies witness your failings in shame!” The Snivy taunted while waving her sword at the three.

Ash remembered Tepig had gotten Smokescreen from earlier training. This gave him an idea.

“Guys, I have a plan. Tepig and I are gonna give you cover. Then you two flank her by the sides,” The Kanto trainer said. Iris and her dragon nodded their heads in understanding as they looked at the snorting Fire Pig Pokemon and his evolved counterpart. Bianca, however, had her own plan.

“Tepig, Smokescreen!” “Pignite, Flame Charge!” Ash and Bianca yelled at their Pokemon at the same time. Tepig blew out a small Smokescreen, which had been blown away by a rush of Pignite’s large flaming body ramming into Snivy. The wild Grass type jumped into the air to dodge the attack. After seeing that Pignite had cooled down back, she used her Leaf Blade to slash him, making the large Fire boar cry out in pain.

“Ah! Pignite, Flame Charge again!” Bianca yelped, while pulling on to her hat in panic.

“Tepig, Ember!” Ash yelled.

“Axew, charge up for Dragon Rage!” Iris ordered.

Tepig shot out his tiny fire, but Snivy was one step ahead, using Vine Whip to use Pignite as a Pokemon shield to take the hits for her. Axew fired his dragon rage at the Snivy, but sadly for Pignite, he was hit with the attack instead. That was enough to make the fire boar fall to the ground, fainted.

“Pignite, no!” The new trainer cried out with tears in her eyes.

“Axew, jump and attack with Scratch!” Iris growled.

“Tepig, Tackle! Pikachu, Iron Tail!” Ash commanded.

Now Snivy knew this would be a bit more difficult. The Tepig actually managed to land a hit on her, forcing Snivy off of their fainted comrade. Bianca fumbled to find the right Poke Ball, before she sadly returned her partner back into his ball to rest.

Axew jumped out of his trainer’s hair, and the tiny Dragon type kept up his own assault as soon as Snivy got her footing back. She kept him at bay with her Leaf Blade, knocking Axew back and making the dragon Leer at her. Pikachu was able to parry and block her attacks. She sent out a Leaf Storm, knocking the Tepig, Pikachu, and Axew back.

However, Pikachu was quick to close the gap, pounding against Snivy’s body with a Volt Tackle. This not only removed Snivy’s Leaf Blade, but also landed them both into a nearby tree, nearly making half of it fall backwards. Snivy had to use Vine Whip again to get Pikachu off of her, and then she tossed him to the side.

While Pikachu was catching his breath, Snivy had to use some of the bark to deflect the upcoming Ember, and Dragon Rage. Pikachu was about to attack her again, but he felt the earth shake so he jumped to a tree. Snivy jumped up, keeping her eye on a rising Pansage who was about to upper cut her. Thankfully for her, the wild starter Grass type was able to slither away. What came next was a large gust of wind from Cheren’s Pidove.

“Hey, glad you could make it, guys,” Iris noted, as the other two guys of the group finally reached them.

“Sorry we were late, we were ambushed by a pack of wild Purrloin,” Cilan explained.

“Pidove, stay on it! Don’t back down!” The power-loving trainer demanded, as his Pidove was giving Snivy a hard time with plenty of Gust attacks.

“Pikachu, Thunderbolt! Tepig, Ember. Purrloin, Shadow Ball!” Ash ordered.

“Axew, Dragon Rage!” Iris yelled.

“Pansage, Dig again!” Cilan commanded.

“Ummmm, where are my other Poke Balls?!” Bianca cried out as she searched her bag frantically.

The wild Snivy had other plans. Rather than allow herself to be assaulted by the onslaught of attacks, she shot out multiple pink beams that looked like hearts. They hit most of the male Pokemon, stopping them in their tracks, and giving them all heart symbols in their eyes.

“What was that?” both Cheren and Bianca asked, having never seen that attack before.

“Oh no, Attract!” Ash and Iris mumbled as they ran in to stop their Pokemon from taking a Vine Whip beating.

“Attract is a move that makes Pokemon of the opposite sex unable to attack, and allows the user to take advantage of their minds,” Cilan explained while returning Pansage to his Poke Ball.

“Gah, no. All my Pokemon are guys!” Cheren groaned while returning his Pidove.

“Aha!” Bianca cried while getting out a Poke Ball. She pressed the button, and both she and Cheren were surprised to find a glazed donut in place of a Pokemon. That didn’t stop Bianca from taking the sweet and eating it with glee. Cheren could only face-palm while shaking his head.

Snivy was enjoying smacking around her newly pacified whipping dolls for all the trouble they had given her. Sure she enjoyed the challenge, but after a while it got annoying. As she was about to smack the tiny Dragon type again, Iris jumped in the way of the attack to take the hit for Axew. Ash did the same for Pikachu and Tepig, while Purrloin gave out a hiss, grabbing the Vine Whips. Snivy pulled out a Leaf Blade; however it was deflected by Ash’s Aura staff, which shot out a glowing blue Aura, which sent a wide-eyed and baffled Snivy flying a few feet.

“WHAT?!” Snivy thought as she was trying to shake off the shock. She noticed the Aura-using human throwing out a Pidove to replace the now very weak Tepig and Pikachu. Snivy used Attract, but it didn’t work. Ash’s Pidove flew into the air.

“Now, Aerial Ace!” Ash yelled, and Pidove came back to the ground, while slamming into her foe. Snivy was starting to feel very close to fainting. Ash pulled out an empty Poke Ball and threw it at her. The ball caught the Pokemon in a flash of light and dropped to the ground.

The Kanto trainer ran to it as the others caught up with him. He looked at the wiggling Poke Ball. Purrloin jumped down and held onto it tightly. After three wiggles, a ding noise was heard. Iris, Cilan, Bianca, and Cheren looked at their friend on the ground. He picked up the Poke Ball, and raised it up in the air. “I caught her!” he said with a smile, before he passed out onto the ground as a small wave of blue Aura came out of his body, making everyone jump.


Ash slowly woke up, smelling something pretty good. He opened his eyes to find Pikachu and Purrloin by his side. They both smiled.

“Ash, you’re up!” They both said, jumping on him affectionately.

The noise from the two happy Pokemon, and their slightly winded trainer, reached the Dragon-Master-in-training, while Cheren and Bianca were busy playing a game at the table, and Cilan was busy cooking some fruit over an open fire.

“Hey, guys, he’s awake,” Iris called as she kneeled down and gave her friend a hand.

“So, have a nice nap?” She asked jokingly. Ash nodded, rather happy to have gotten some sleep.

“Ugh, I’m starving!” He grumbled, feeling the weight of the newly caught Snivy in his hand. Iris sat him down in a free chair.

“Hey Cilan, dinner ready yet?” Iris asked, while Axew popped out of his mom’s hair. Bianca and Cheren were cheering that their friend had come around.

“Wait. It’s nighttime?!” Ash asked, looking around to find the moon out, as Pansage and Cilan gave out plates of crispy-looking assorted fruits and veggies.

“You were out for quite a while, but don’t worry, I made sure to get your Pokemon fed. Now, please enjoy,” Cilan assured his friend. Ash gave a thankful nod to his moss-haired friend while looking to find his other Pokemon chowing down with everyone else.

“Alright, let’s eat!” Bianca, Axew, and Iris cried out as they ate. Cheren however, looked at the veggies in disgust as he poked them with his fork. Ash, Pikachu, and Purrloin started to dig in with the rest.

“Ms. Purrloin, I’m afraid that Ms. Snivy has yet to eat anything!” Pansage informed the Dark type.

Purrloin then whispered to Ash while he ate, which caused him to stop eating and walk to where his Pokemon friends were. He pressed the button, letting Snivy out. The prideful green starter looked at her new trainer with a cautious eye. Ash just smiled while getting her a bowl of Pokemon food and setting it down for her.

“Look, I’m sure you’re hungry, so eat up,” He said with a smile. Snivy could have sworn she had seen another trainer in his place.

“I’m impressed that you, your pack, and your Pokemon bested me. Not many have done that. For now, until I no longer see you as worthy, you have my sword, My King,” Snivy swore while giving a grateful bow for the food. Purrloin looked very pleased, while doing a quick scan of everyone as they went to eating.

“Yes, our ranks increase, but still, tomorrow we’ll have to get everyone to train twice as hard. We can’t let Plasma get those stones,” Purrloin thought to herself.

“Baby, pass the ketchup please,” Pikachu requested.

“Oh, here you are sweetie,” The cat muttered, giving the Mouse Pokemon a small packet of what he craved.


Meanwhile.

Deep inside one of the Team Plasma labs, a multitude of scientists and grunts were working tirelessly on a few projects to ensure their goals would be realized.

A grunt dashed into the men’s room. He quickly found a stall and started removing his lower armor and helmet. The grunt did hear noises coming from the ventilation, but paid them no mind. That is, until he saw a cleaned shaven man wearing dark glasses and, from what the runt could tell, a black sneaking suit.

“Sorry, forgot to knock,” The spy one-lined, in James Bond fashion, before knocking the grunt out cold with a hard punch to the face.

The spy dropped down and took the grunt’s armor. He saw his Greninja waiting for him.

“Sorry Naruto. Had a tough time getting into this place, you got the charges?” He asked, now in full grunt armor.

The Water Ninja nodded while showing him a few unarmed bombs from his scarf tongue.

“Alright, let’s go medieval on their asses,” Lan muttered while taking a few bombs, as his partner vanished in smoke. Lan made his way past the grunts and busy lab coats undetected, swapping key cards to get farther into the lab. To change it up, Lan was able to nab a scientist, knock him out with a quick jab to the neck in another bathroom that was not full of cameras, and take his coat and his higher access cards in exchange for the armor. Soon the spy found what he was looking for: the Shadow Pokemon machine –well, the prototype, at least.

“Ink Spot, this is Solid Snivy, I’m about to shed some light on something shadowy,” he whispered into his hidden ear piece.
