"Say Professor Oak that Muchlax on the outskirts of town does it have a trainer." Kara asked out of curiosity.
"The Munchlax has been there for several months it showed up one day strangely it hasn't been much trouble unlike others of the species that sneak into towns to eat wasted foods or sneak into dry storage to consume food to their hearts content. At the most we offer him food and he sits there lazily waiting for challenges from other Pokemon. If you want, you may take him with you it might do the daring little one some good plus your budget currently should be able to feed him and little Iggy there."
"Really then I will go offer him a place to join me."
"Go ahead no one has asked my guess its fear due to the species known eating habit."
Kara then ran out of the lab and towards the Munchlax. It was laying asleep its fur was blue unlike the normal teal color.
Munchlax then reached into its robe like fur grabbing a berry and stuffing it into its mouth as Kara approached.
"Hey Munchlax join me, and you can become powerful. I hear you like to battle and joining me will give you resources to grow and plenty of battling to the point you will evolve."
Muchlax sat up and opened his eyes squinting them in skepticism as he thought.
"Munch" he said in challenge
"That can be arranged Iggy lets fight although show me your moves in this battle as demonstration so I can call them out."
Iggy jumped down flipping and slamming her club into the ground touching the ground gracefully
Munchlax then stood up then began to charge glowing white as Iggy's club glowed pink as she swung it sending a glittering pink wind.
Munchlax got hit and was slowed down before ramming into Iggy as she slammed her club into the ground to hold her place to not be thrown.
Munchlax then held up a finger signaling one final attack to decide everything.
"Iggy use your strongest attack lets prove our worth"
"TINKA"
Iggy then held up her club as teal energy condensed around it forming a large ice hammer
Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation.
Munchlax then glowed purple before a white glow condensed around his hands and he grabbed for the hammer.
Iggy avoided his grab for the hammer slamming it down on Munchlax knocking it down on the ground.
Munchlax huffed before standing up nodding in approval.
"Munchlax"
Kara knew that the attack hit him harder than he thought it would.
"Will you join me now was that good enough." she asked with hope
"Munch" he said in approval shaking his head in agreement.
"Alright from this day on you will be Lucas." Kara then tapping his head with the Pokeball it clicking immediately catching him.
"Rest for now when we are back in Viridian you will get checked and healed up." Kara then put the ball onto her belt after shrinking it
Kara then grabbed Iggy setting her on her shoulder then she began to walk to route one to go back to Viridian.
On her way Kara was stopped by two freaky people. The first was a woman with bright neon green hair and red eyes the color of rubies the other was a man with silver hair and black eyes both of them were wearing a grey outfit with a red R on the chest.
"My name is Kim, and this is my partner Tay, and we are from team rocket hand over your rare Pokemon or prepare for a fight."
"Hey Kim, I've never seen that Pokemon before it must be rare let's grab it and go." Tay then threw a ball it opens and a Grimer comes out.
"Your right Tay if we bring it to the boss, he will surely pay us a lot for such a rare Pokemon." Kim then threw out a ball an Ekans coming out
"Iggy will never come with you. Lucas come out I know you are hurt but I could use you to take out these troublesome trainers that are attacking me." Iggy threw out Lucas's ball him appearing Iggy them jumped down both of them were ready for battle.
"Ekans use Wrap on the Munchlax."
"Grimer use Poison gas on that one." pointing at Iggy
"Iggy use Fairy Wind and Lucas use Lick on your respective targets."
The pokemon start Iggy begins to swing her hammer around creating a small glittering in the air as the Grimer gets close and begins to belch up a purple gas.
Lucas stands waiting his tongue coming out waiting for Ekans to try to Wrap him up.
Iggy stands as the gas hits her showing no reaction as her wind is swung at Grimer hurting it a little.
Ekans Wraps up around Lucas and squeezes as Lucas licks it and it shivers convulsively in disgust.
"Luca use Covet to get the Ekans off of you Iggy use Ice Hammer."
"Ekans don't let that Munchlax grab you for free stink him with your poison use Poison sting."
"Hurry up Grimer use pound."
Iggy held up her club condencing energy and Lucas began to grab Ekans to tear it off.
Grimer then punched Iggy as ekans shot a dart from its tail missing.
Iggy took the Punch easily never losing focus
Lucas finally ripped the Ekans off of him throwing it down unconscious
At last, her hammer was ready shaped in ice a hammer that she twirled to smash into the Grimer sending it at their trainer.
"Leave me alone I don't plan to give up my Pokemon ever." Kara said while returning her pokemon
"We will see about that with such rare Pokemon you never know who will be after you." Kim said as they began to run deeper into the woods.
Several minutes later Kara ran into a Jenny who didn't look happy.
"Be careful there are Pokemon Poachers in the area."
"I will be extra careful thanks for the info."
Kara walked toward the center and as soon as it was in sight a pair of people wearing a gray uniform and a Meowth were threw out of the center and into the air flying far away. Kara was almost certain they said, "We're blasting off."
