Brandon and Gary had finally made it to Ordale Town and it has been a very long ordeal. Pikachu was finally bonding with Brandon and Gary and Charmander were ever determined. After they checked out the small town they departed for Petalburg. Both Trainer were beginnging ot wonder if they would ever catch any wild pokemon. The path along to Petalburg woods was very wild and was a perfect chance to capture a wild pokemon. As they both searched all of a sudden a wild pokemon jumped into the open. It startled Pikachu who let off an electric shock paralyzing the pokemon. Both trainers were thirsty for a catch and soon pokeballs flew into the air. Gary's pokeball was a little off balance and was knocked out of the way by Brandons pokeball as it hit the pokemon. It wiggled once.... twice..... three times..... then the button on the pokeball flashed white and then Brandon after cheering very loud finally had a chance to figure out what the pokemon was the he caught. "Rattata, the rat pokemon. Its very large teeth are meant for intimidation over its small body and consuming large amounts of food in a small amount of time."The Pokedex said. "What you got a pokemon first?" Gary yelled. "Yep haha". Gary walked along saying nothing. They finally reached Petalburg woods and it seemed very gloomy to them. They were walking along all very quiet except Pikachu's random singing. They soon came to a large clearing in the woods. In this small field there was several insanely large trees and a large family of Butterfree that seemed ready to give birth. At firs the Butterfree seemed reluctant to let Brandona and Gary by but some coaxing by Tory soothed them and let them see what was happeneing. Some of the Butterfrees eggs were beginning to hatch. The eggs were surrounded with a gooey see-through subtance and little Caterpies ready to emerge dug at the eggs. Soon they emerged as hungery little pokemon devouring any leave that they happened to see. After a while the Butterfree learned to trust Brandon and Gary so they decided to camp out here. The next morning the two left to go get some food when they heard shrill crys coming from the Butterfree nest. They hid in the bushes and several dark figures netting Butterfree and attaching them to there strange Helicopter like flight system. "What the hell do you think you are doing with those butterfree?" Gary yelled. "These are Team Rockets Butterfree now" One of the shadowy figures insisted. "Not if i can help it, Charmander ember!" "Ahh Damn you have to get us into everything don't you" Brandon sighed. "Pikachu and Rattata attack!" The Team Rocket member and some of his other lackeys sent out some pokemon they were Nidoran Male, Ekans, and Zubat. Charmander jumped on the Nidoran and used ember. Surprised with the determination Nidoran used poison sting poisoning Charmander. Charmander scratched Nidoran and it fainted. Pikachu shocked Zubat making an instant KO. Pikachu procedded with attacking Ekans helping Ratatta faint it. "What do you want with these pokemon" Gary yelled. "These pokemon secrete an enzyme that is heat resistant" The Rocket Member yelled back. "I dont think so, Charmander, Ember" Charmander blew a flame at the helicopters blade making it explode. Pikachu sent a shock starting it on fire. "If i can't do this experiment at the lab then ill just do it here my self" The rocket member took out one of those lighters and procedded to light the caterpie on fire. It writhed around in the flames but it was useless. Gary took off after him. And soon as the Rocket member started running Gary caught up with him and tackled him. Gary then beat him to a pulp and blew out the Caterpie. "We have to get to a pokemon center!" he yelled. Brandon had already freed the butterfree form the nets. They took off running. Gary slammed his fist on the table. "Nurse Nurse!! We need immediate care!" He yelled. Nurse Joy grabbed the Caterpie and carried it off before he could say anything. They both waited for hours to see what was going to happen until a chime over the door rang and Nurse Joy and some Chanseys walked out with Caterpie. "Well your'e pokeman has Third Degree burns all over it but if u rub this lotion on it every day it should get better over time. Gary Nodded and took the Caterpie. Later after they made it back to the forest The Caterpie decided he wanted to stay with the one who saved him, although the Butterfree mother disagreed Gary held out an empty pokeball and Caterpie tapped it with his nose sending him inside it. Gary and Brandon departed stating that they would one day be back. They hiked along the trail back to Petalburg cityto continue their long journey onwards.
