YAY! ALL ORIGINALS COUNTED! I love my username! I put in shadow and phantomness (lower-case!) at this find your own pokemon site, and they correspond to Zapdos n’ Umbreon. Hehehe….

Disclaimer: I have 250 of the G/S/C/R/B/Y pokemon! I still need… Serebii. So I guess I could say I own them. But of course, Nintendo owns the original, and so does Satoshi Tajiri. Anyways, Destiny and new stuff is mine.

Lance is a girl and goes by the name of Crystal. As if you didn’t already know that…

Xaero – thank you

Link Masters – well, it is shiny!

Jarzard – well, that’s different. *Raises an eyebrow*

Tmp – thanks! I’m sad that winter break will be over very soon though.

SS2 Megami-sama – aw… I wish I had a muse. I’m still waiting for one to pop up…

Digifan1 – thank you

Elizabeth – I’ve only seen Indigo League…

Mallory Cartwright – I know you’re anxious, but I’m a senior with a load of AP classes. *sighs* Ok?

Episode 151: Bugs = Danger? I don’t think so!

“Rapidash, Rapid Fire now!”

Rapidash nodded. Bugsy’s unfortunate Scyther simply went up in flames, and Bugsy sensibly recalled her pokemon.

“You’re really good.” Bugsy said, as she walked over. “I confer on you the Hivebadge.”
“Thank you, Bugsy.” Ash said, shaking her hand. The two smiled, as trainer to trainer, and then Ash walked back to where Lance was.

“Come on, Crys, let’s go hit the pokemon center now.”

“Right with you.” Lance said, picking up her blue backpack. “Let’s go.”

The two walked along, and soon came to the Ilex Forest.

“I guess we go in.” Ash said.

Lance nodded. “Got any repel? This place is full of bugs.”

Ash pulled out some Super Repel and they both sprayed themselves, before walking into the woods.

Fifty minutes later…

“We should be nearing the exit now.” Luna said, as she sipped water from a sports bottle.

Pika-chan smiled. * Good. I’m tired. *

Rapidash nodded and quickly galloped towards the light.

*CRASH*

“Ow!” Ash said, as he nearly fell off Rapidash. He looked down and saw a person lying sprawled out on the ground. “Whoa! Are you okay?”

There was no response.

Ash blinked and jumped down from Rapidash’s back. He levitated the person into a sitting position.

“Ash, he’s unconscious.” Lance said, with a hint of deprecation in her voice.

“Really?”

Lance inclined her head.

“Okay…”

They loaded the unconscious kid onto Rapidash’s back and secured him with some of Ash’s spare costumes, torn into strips. Then, Ash released the Tauros card and clambered on. Lance followed.

“I think we’re lost.” Ash said, pulling out his key. “Magic to cards, cards to key!”

A thin beam of white light shot off into a bush.

“So a pokemon card is doing this…” Ash said. “Key that hides the power of the stars, reveal your true form before me! Your master under the seal of contract Ashura commands you, Release!”

There was a sparkle of gold dust and then Ash’s staff appeared.

Ash picked it up and pulled out a card. “Nidoran, go!”

The male Nidoran popped out and squatted down on its haunches, looking around with fascination at the leafy boughs.

“Nidoran, can you use Detect?”

Nidoran nodded and formed a little searching ball of energy. A few minutes later, it dived into a bush. The sounds of a scuffle were heard.

“Nidoran, use Poison Sting!”

There was a flash of light, and Nidoran jumped out, shooting needles at its opponent. The card it was fighting was still hidden in the bush though.

A sticky strand of white fiber wound itself around Nidoran’s leg.

“So it’s a bug-type, huh?” Ash said.

Nidoran jumped up and used a Tackle attack.

There was a hissing sound, and then an Ariados leapt out.

“Nidoran, use Double Kick!”

Nidoran sprang forwards and kicked twice at Ariados, before jumping back.

Ariados quickly shot a Spider Web attack at Nidoran, tying it up so it couldn’t move. Nidoran shook its ears angrily.

“Toxic, Nidoran!”

Nidoran opened its mouth and spit out a Toxic attack, dissolving the thread completely.

“Great. Now use Horn Attack!”

Ariados, shocked, was caught by Nidoran’s horn and sent flying into the air.

“Under a new seal of contract, your master commands you, return to your true form, pokemon card!”

Ariados looked resolute as it turned into an Ash card.

Ash looked around and nodded. * Nothing else out there… *

“But Ariados couldn’t have caused a maze in this forest.” Lance said.

“You’re not using Maze, are you?”

Lance shook her head. “I’ve got an idea though…”

She pulled a silver-blue card out of her pocket, and her key. Then, she activated the card.

“Through! Get is through this infernal maze!”

Ash gasped as they all went incorporeal, before Lance took his hand and dragged him through several trees, bushes, and a broken-down shrine. Finally, they arrived at the longed for exit.

Lance let out a sigh and the incorporeal state dissappitated. Ash landed with a thump, because he had been floating.

“Are you okay, Ash?”

Ash rubbed his sore rear. “I think so… now what’s wrong with him?”

“I don’t know.” Lance said honestly. She formed a small ball of green energy in her hands and shoved it into his body.

The person spluttered and quickly awoke.

“Where am I?”

“On the way to Goldenrod.” Lance said. “What were you doing in Ilex Forest?”

“I’m apprenticed to the Charcoal maker in Azalea. I was out cutting wood with Farfetch’d.”

“But why were you knocked out?”

The boy looked sheepish. “I don’t remember…”

“What?!”

“Hahahaha!”

“Prepare for Trouble!”

“And make it double!”

“To protect the world from – HEY!”
The rocket member didn’t even get to finish before an Ursaring slammed into him, using Body Slam.

Houndour was biting the second rocket member. Ash had captured both of the pokemon cards days ago.

“Houndour, Flamethrower now.”

Houndour nodded and set Rocket member #1 on fire.

“AHHHH!” He immediately began to stop, drop, and roll. Rocket member #2 had little swirls over his head, as he had been hit in the face with a Mega Punch.

A few more rocket members jumped out of the bushes.

Ash yawned. “More work for me? Oh well.” He drew out another card. “Unown, you’re up!”

The entire Unown alphabet appeared and began using Hidden Power. The Rockets went flying every which way.

Ash smirked nastily. “I don’t’ like Team Rocket members very much…”

There was a flash of light and the Rockets vanished.

< Did you kill them? > Pika-chan asked anxiously.

< No, I just teleported them to Kanto. >

< Phew. >

Sylvester stared at Ash in awe. “Wow…”

“If you need a ride, I can have one of my pokemon take you back to Azalea town.” Ash offered.

“Really?” Sylvester asked gratefully. “It would really help me and Farfetch’d.”

“Yep.” Ash said.

“Pidgeotto, go!”

The Pidgeotto card nodded as the two went on its back. * I’ll be back very soon, anyways. Might as well help. *

Pidgeotto flew off into the distance.

Ash yawned and gulped down a Healing Potion.

“Do you need anything?” Lance asked.

Ash shook his head. “I’ll be fine. I’m not tired.”

“That’s good. Maybe your resistance is getting stronger.”

“That’d be nice…” Ash said a bit wistfully.

There was a small flash of silver light from somewhere off into the distance. However, neither one of the Chosen noticed…

End Episode 151! Ash has more pokemon cards than I show in the story…

So! Does anyone want to send shadow a muse? It might help her write faster

Sadly enough, the final judgment will take place during the beginning of the next arc, not the end of this one. Sorry!

Other things…

After getting no reader response, I might not continue updating… >.<

I attempted to read a NT fic and couldn’t live past the second paragraph because it was blatantly Mary-sue, good lord, how will I survive? Even the summary was Mary-sued, if that’s possible… also tried to read a few others but really could not stand it. *Sighs*

Anyways, so in anger, Phantomness shall be posting a new fic soon, a SI parody.
