It begins two days after Giovanni had become the gym leader of Viridian City. Reshon and her companions, Norman and Michelle, had gotten lost in the Viridian Forest, while trying to make their way to Pewter City. The trio had plan to challenge the gym leader there, but by the end of the first night their only plans was to find a way out of the jungle like maze.

"Go Venonat," a male voice yelled as a purple bug type pokemon materialized from a reddish light.

"Humph, what is that suppose to do?" yelled a feminine voice.

"Hush, Reshon, a Venonat can find its way out of mist thicker than this," yelled another feminine voice.

"Dratini, Drat, Dratini," yelled another voice.

Then the bushes parted to reveal a boy who looks to be around the age of 10. He wore a blue hat on his head, and his outfit was made up of black blue jeans pants and a black jacket. His brown eyes reflected in the sun as he pulled his hat down in the front, which revealed his black hair in the back.

"This isn't the time to argue you two," the boy yelled," we're out of food and water, and it's only a matter of time before we either starve or die of dehydration!"

"Speaking of starving, Norman," answers one of the girls," Black Dratini is hungry!"

The bushes parted again after Norman steps through to reveal a girl around the same age as him. She had ebony colored hair, which at that moment was draw into a single pony, and her outfit was compose of a short green dress with black stripes and black pants underneath. The girl crossed her arms as she neared the boy and looked up at him with her dark brown eyes.

"We need to go look for something to eat," the girl exclaims as her pokemon, Black Dratini, agrees with her.

"Well, if that is the case, Reshon," the other girl starts as she follows the first girl out of the bushes," you should put your pokemon back in its pokeball until we find water!"

The other girl concludes as she sweeps her long black braids away from her brown eyes with her hand. Her outfit wasn't made for a hot day in the forest. It was compose of a long sleeve, red shirt, with blue jeans pants underneath, and around her neck swung a single pokeball necklace that contains her first pokemon, Onix.

"Michelle, you know very well that I don't like keeping my pokemon in their pokeballs, and we made a deal that while we are traveling that Black Dratini will be allowed to stay out," Reshon yelled back at the girl.

"Well, Michelle, is right, Reshon." "Black Dratini, would be better off in her pokeball," Norman declared," and I don't see why you want to carry your pokemon out like that anyway."

"Alright," Reshon starts as she looks down at her tennis shoes in defeat," I will put Black Dratini in her pokeball."

"Good," Michelle comments!

"But only if Michelle can beat me in a two on two pokemon battle," Reshon yelled quickly after Michelle had made her smart little comment.

"Humph!" Michelle smiles as the wind picks up her braids, and she turns to face her rival," sure I accept your challenge, but you know the rules of battling." "If I win you must pay me half your money, and if you happen to accidentally win I will pay you half of my money." "Deal?"

"Deal!" Reshon answered with renew enthusiasm.

"Fine," Norman yells as the two girls prepared to battle each other," me and Venonat are going to try to find the way out of here, and maybe if you're lucky we'll come back for you two!"

Then Norman turns and leaves with his pokemon, which is totally unnoticed by the two girls as they try to decide which two pokemon they should fight with.

"Ok, I'm ready," shouted Reshon.

"Me too," Michelle also shouts," so now we need to find a clear area to battle at."

"Ok, lets go to that clearing a saw just a few minutes ago!" " I believe it is to the East of here," Reshon directed. The two of them then left the area in search the clearing so they can battle.

Meanwhile, a couple paces away, Norman and Venonat was searching the forest for an exit.

"Venonat, are you sure its this way?" Norman asked," I was sure we had been here before."

"Veno-nat," the bug-type pokemon answered as it continued on its way.

"I guess I have no other choice, but to trust you," Norman signed as the two of them continued down the path to what he hoped to be his freedom from this place. Suddenly Norman stop, " what is that sound," he says as a faint piiiii was heard in the distances.

At that same moment, Reshon and Michelle had finally reached the clearing.

"Now it's time for you to lose Michelle," Reshon yelled as she reached underneath her short dress and removed a pokeball from the purple belt around her waist. "I choose you, Blitz," Reshon yelled as she threw a pokeball high into the air.

The pokeball split open in midair to release a small fox like pokemon. Its brown fur shone in the bright sunlight as it wags its tail back and forth.

"Eevee," it yelled as its ear flattens against its skull and it lowers its body to the ground. This was its way of saying that he was ready to fight, and he emphasized it with another loud," Eeeeeeeve!"

"Huh, so you have given it a name already," Michelle commented," but you're not the only one to name a pokemon." "I choose you, Diamond!"

Michelle then threw the pokeball that was attached to the chain around her neck straight up into the air. The pokeball flew high into the sky and then split open when it reach the stopping point right before it would've came hurling back to the ground below. The reddish light leaked from the ball, and materialized right underneath the ball. The light form into huge gray pokemon, and then the pokeball flew back to the hand of its owner.

"Nnnnnnix," the creature yell as it faced its small challenger.

"What is that?" Reshon asks as Black Dratini surface out of her backpack with her pokedex in its mouth.

"Dratini," she managed to squeak through a mouthful of plastic.

"Huh," Reshon snaps out of her trance, and accepts the item from her pokemon. "Ok, let's see what the pokedex says."

"Onix," Pokedex began," the rock snake!" " It burrows at high speed in search of food." "The tunnels it leaves are used as homes by Digletts." "It has a weakness to plant and water type pokemon," the pokedex ended.

"Well, that wasn't much help," Reshon muttered, since she didn't have a clue what a Diglett was.

"Are you ready now, Reshon?" Michelle asked impatiently. "You should know better than to use your pokedex during a battle!" " I could have already defeated you by now, because your pokemon doesn't know what to do."

Reshon turn to Michelle," Ok, enough talk lets battle!" "Blitz, use your quick attack," Reshon commanded as the little pokemon turned its defense position into an all out sprint straight toward Onix.

"Diamond, wrap," Michelle yelled as the rock type pokemon reached toward the Eevee with its tail.

Blitz saw the huge tail coming toward him, so he decided to try and jump over it when it came close enough. So as the huge tail swept down toward the pokemon with the single intention of wrapping itself around it and squeezing it, Blitz leapt out of harms way and landed on the tail of the stone creature. Then it continues its run all the way to the head of the beast.

"Blitz, finish it off with your bubblebeam!" Reshon yelled as the pokemon hit his shoulder into the side of the Onix's head, which cause no damage to Onix, but shook the poor Eevee up a bit.

"Diamond, shake it off quickly," Michelle yelled as the huge rock snake began to shake its head from side to side with the hopes of getting it off before the Eevee could use his fatal move.

"Eevvvvvvee," Blitz yelled as the pokemon swung its head back and forward. He knew that he was going to lose his grip on the Onix's back and fall, which was a long way down from there. It would probably faint from the fall, but he had no plan of going a lone.

That when the predictable thing happen and Blitz fell from the back of Diamond, but just before it hit the ground it turn itself around so it was facing the Onix and shot out a gush of bubbles that hit Onix in the head. Then a few millimeters from the ground where it might had broken it back on impact it was engulfed in a reddish light as Reshon called it back. Meanwhile Michelle's Onix had drop to the ground in pain. Then a few seconds later it had fainted, and was also recalled back into its pokeball.

"Well, It seems we have a tie here, and our last pokemon will be the tie breaker," Michelle smirked as she reattached Diamond's pokeball to her chain and replaced it around her neck. Then she grabbed a Great ball from around the belt around her waist, and then threw it high into the air. "Go, Nidoking!"

Elsewhere in Viridian Forest, Norman and Venonat had came upon a small lake, with a fun looking pokemon beside it. The pokemon was a small rodent type, and it was yellow with black stripes. On first glance, Reshon would have said it was a Pikachu, but it was both to little and its head was too big. Finally, it dawns on him what it could be.

"It’s the baby form of Pikachu, Pichu," Norman yelled," but what is it doing out here alone."

Norman approaches the baby pokemon, and that is when he saw it. A Pikachu was laying a few feet a way from the Pichu.

<Its body was torn apart as if it had been attack by a…..> Norman's chain of thought ended there as he grabbed the baby Pichu just in the nick of time.

In a second after Norman had grab Pichu the spot the little pokemon was in before was filled by the huge claws of a slightly singe bird-type pokemon. Norman looked up to see the Fearow six inches from his face.

"Fearow," it yelled as the bird open its beak and snapped it shut a few inches from Norman's face as Norman pulled his head back just in time to avoid its crushing beak.

"Man, that was close!" Norman signs as the bird took off from the ground and flew high into the air. "I guess it doesn't want to risk the wrath of a creature as big as it," Norman mutters as Venonat moves closer to his side. "Some help you was!"

"Veeenoonat!" the bug-type pokemon mutter.

"Please, tell me you're not serious!" Norman yelled," that stupid bird is coming back!" "Venonat, return!"

Venonat was instantly suck back into its pokeball as Norman, who is only able to use one arm at the moment, return the pokeball to his belt, and then pulls out another.

"Go Marril," Norman yells as he releases his pokemon. " This is just incase Venonat was right!" "Come on, Marril, let's go!"

Norman with Pichu in his arms and Marril behind him rushed back the way they had come in hopes of getting back to the girls before the Fearow gets back to them.

Later, Reshon and Michelle battle was finally coming to a close, as Reshon's Black Dratini was making a fool out of Nidoking.

"Dratini, Dratini," she teased as Nidoking used his Mega Punch once again and found himself punching air.

Then the slim black serpent would appear behind him and hit him with a slam attack, and just before Nidoking could get a good punch in she would teleport again. This was a slow yet effective way to defeat Michelle's Nidoking. Soon, his fist began to come slower and slower, and Black Dratini and Reshon saw their chance to defeat him.

"Black Dratini," Reshon yelled as she pointed toward the Nidoking," use your Hyperbeam."

Black Dratini start to charge up as she prepared for the final blow.

"Nidoking, watch out!" Michelle yelled when she realizes what was happening. "Use Earthquake!"

Nidoking's move was too slow as Black Dratini shot a huge beam out of her mouth straight toward the poor pokemon. He was totally engulf by the beam, and after the beam die down. Nidoking was revealed to have fainted from the blow, so Michelle recalled him back into his pokeball.

"Good battle, now my reward," Reshon yells with glee as she sweeps up her Black Dratini, and goes to stand in front of Michelle.

Mumbling Michelle hands Reshon her reward just as Norman bust into view.

"Help," he yells as a bird-type pokemon dives down toward them.

Norman's Marril rushes toward Norman, and just before the pokemon gets a chance to attack Norman with his talons, she hits it with her bubblebeam attack. Upon seeing this the girls rushes to join Norman's side.

"Aww, man, Norman," I knew you was nothing but trouble," Reshon yelled as she reaches Norman's side.

"We need to get rid of that bird!" Michelle yells as she reaches into her belt, and pull out a pokeball. "I choose you, Aero!"

She tosses the ball high into the air, and it split open to reveal a flying type pokemon unlike any Norman had every seen. Its body seems to be made up of stone from its head to its tail, but yet it was able to fly. Suddenly Norman hears a familiar female voice.

"Aerodactyl, the fossil type pokemon," Pokedex began," this creature is thought to be extinct, but due to some special labs on Cinnabar Island these pokemon are being resurrected from amber."

"Wow," yelled Reshon," that amazing!" "A flying fossil!" "That is too cool, Michelle!"

"Well, watch it in action," Michelle said proudly. "Aero can handle that bird."

The trio then looks back toward the sky to discover that the Fearow was nowhere to be found. It seems that Fearow once it realized it was out number had flown away during Pokedex's speech.

<This bird is no dope!> < If I could kill a pokemon I have a weakness to; then they shouldn't be expecting me to allow myself to be defeated by a bunch of kids like them.> Fearow thought to itself as it flew to its trainer deep in the woods.

The shadowy figure greeted it on its touch down. Welcome back, Fearow, I hope you've had a good dinner. The bird smile back with its huge beak still covered with blood from its last victim, and the shadowy figure grin with the knowledge that there was one less pokemon in these woods.

Michelle then call back her Aerodactyl, and the trio begins to make camp. It seems that they were going to spend yet another night in the Viridian Forest. So, Reshon and Norman had crawl into the tent for the night, while Michelle went in search of food.

"Hey, Norman," Reshon call out," what type of pokemon is that?"

She asked as she pointed toward the napping pokemon in Norman's arms. Norman looked down at the small pokemon and then placed it into a sling he had made on his back.

"It call a Pichu," Norman stated," but I really don't know much else about it other than it is the baby version of Pikachu."

Michelle upon entering the tent heard this and dropped her the fishes she had caught at the lake where Norman had found Pichu.

"Did you just say that that pokemon is a Pichu?" Michelle started franticly.

"Umm, yes that what I said." Norman reply coolly," so what?"

"Reshon, use you Pokedex on that Pichu," Michelle ordered.

"Ok," Reshon replied as Black Dratini again beat her to retrieving her Pokedex. "Thanks, Black Dratini!"

"Dratini, Dratini," the serpent like pokemon replied as it slither back into Reshon's backpack to sleep.

"Pichu, the electric mouse type pokemon," Pokedex announced as Reshon pointed it toward the sleeping Pichu in Norman's sling," this pokemon is the baby version of Pikachu. It lets off huge bolts of electricity every time its emotions change, which makes it impossible to train at this stage."

Then the Pokedex switch off, and Reshon and Michelle scooted over to the opposite side of the tent as Pichu smiled in its sleep, and Norman receive a thundershock from the slumbering creature on his back

"This is going to be a long night," Reshon said as Norman now blacken from the shock collapse still in a sitting position on his face, with Pichu smiling brightly.
