Preparing for the first Gym!

I blink my eyes open, looking up at the cop. "Eh?" I mumbled, blinking at the officer. "Something wrong?" Absol lifts her head and growls a little at the man, in a warning way.

The cop didn't even flick nor looked intimated by the Absol. He's a big guy and doesn't even look like he's a real cop at all but he is. "Miss, no sleeping in the forest. Wild Pokémon wander around. Even the strongest. One very strong wild can wipe your team out. If you'd like to get some rest, I'll gladly escort you to the Pokémon Center where you can rent a room for free," he said.

"Hate to break it to ya, but I've been sleeping here for a while now, and I've never had a problem before. I didn't know that even the forest had laws on where you could sleep." I muttered a little. Then suddenly, as if by a random spurt of energy, I jumped up. "Lets battle!" I challenged him out of no where.

The cop looked at the girl with a black expression. He blinked.

"Sorry, I'm a cop. My Pokémon should be used only in situations that are applicable to my job. Please try not to snooze again. If you need to rest, there's a Pokémon Center nearby. I'll be on my way now," the muscular cop said with his big, deep voice.

He turned around and had only walked a few steps away from Lilli when a shriek of a horrified girl surprisingly echoes in the forest. It echoed, the exact location where the sound came from could not be determined. The cop was alerted and looked around him trying to spot anything but there's nothing.

"Hello?! I'm a cop! Is someone out there who needs help?!"

His question was not answered.

He turned around and looked at Lilli. "Miss, you have Pokémon with you. You should be fine by yourself. I'll do my job now," he said and shouted again with his question. Still, no answer.

Completely ignoring the cop, I looked at Absol. If something bad was happening, she should be able to figure it out. "Absol, do you know whats going on?" Absol blinked and raised its horn, trying to sense the danger.

There is a danger. A forest fire is about to start.

The smell of a smoke and burning plants slowly creep around. From a distance, a tree can be seen on fire along with the plants that are near it. The fire is quickly spreading and the fire must be put off right away. By the looks of the flame, an averagely-strong Pokémon probably was the cause of it. Pokémon quickly run away from that area and cry for help.

Near the bushes around Lilli and the cop, jumps out a small variety of Water-type Pokémon. They don't look strong enough to stop this flame but they might just be able to put it out. But honestly, they can't. They rush off towards that place. The bigger ones help scoop up the baby Pokémon and bring them to safety.

Thinking outside the box, this entire scene of Pokémon helping each other and saving nature is too awesome. The sound of a Poké Ball releasing its content can be heard from where the cop is. A Wartortle stands beside the cop. "Wartortle, let's go!"

They run towards that fire. The fire has spread even more and is bigger.

"Buizel, come on!" I returned my other Pokemon to their Poke Balls, and Buizel leaped out of the tree. I saw some small Pokemon stuck under a burning bush. "Water Gun!" Buizel shot a stream of water at the bush, putting out that small fire. The Pokemon ran off.
"Come on Buizel!" I ran off with Buizel, having her put out little fires on the bushes and some small trees.

The cop's nowhere to be seen anymore. But he's probably doing his job.

From a distance, a roar of a seemingly strong Pokémon shakes the forest as a tornado of fire shoot from where the sound is heard. It must be what's causing all these chaos. A Fire Spin maybe? Or a Flamethrower? Whatever it is, it is something Lilli can't do on his own. Nor can't with the cop. Where's Superman when you need him?

All the wild Pokémon continue evacuating and running. The Water-types that can walk on land kept going with their Water attacks.

Suddenly, a cry of a Salamence shakes the forest. That cry is even more louder than the troublemaker's. From atop the skies is a huge Salamence in flight. There's a man riding on it. At first glance, he looks like the Elite Four's Lance. But it isn't Lance. They probably just have the same hair color. Perhaps it's an Ace Trainer.

The Salamence roars and its body becomes surrounded in a crimson red aura, making a storm appear. Water pelted the ground and the fires were quickly doused. The downside is Lilli's clothes will probably get all soaked. Shortly, Salamence roars again and the storm slowly yet quickly disappears and the weather's back to normal.

The trainer looks down to the ground towards the area where the troublemaker's roar was heard. He commanded his Salamence to go down there. Shortly, they touch the ground and the two Pokémon met. Whatever that other Pokémon met is. Sounds of a powerful battle can be heard.

Behind Lilli, the rustling of the bushes can be heard. However, it's not just a rustle. Probably something big hiding behind it and crawling its way towards her. Everyone has yet to notice it.

I was amazed by the sight of the Salmence putting out the fire. Hearing the sounds of fighting, I wondered whether or not I should go check it out. Returned my now exaughsted Buizel back to her Poke Ball, I looked towards the direction of the fight. I was so distracted by it that I didn't notice whatever was creeping through the bushes near me.

Whatever it was that's creeping behind Lilli, is something that should be taken seriously. Rapid and chasing footsteps can be heard behind her. Meanwhile, looking on to the fight scene, it's the good guy's Salamence fighting against a man dressed in black's Magmortar.

The man with the Magmortar is dressed in black uniform with a big red R on them, as well as gray gloves and boots. He also wears a black cap, and his hair is shown as pink. He has this terrorist-like look on him.

Meanwhile, whatever it is behind Lilli called to her. It's a guy and he said, "Hey! Where do you think you're going, girly? Come on here and fight me! My higher-up will crush that meddler over there! Same as I'll do to you!"

I whirled around to face the man in black behind me. He looked dangerous, but that didn't stop me. "You want a fight? Absol, lets go!" I tossed Absol's Poke Ball and she jumped forwards with a defensive growl.

The Rocket Trainer with the Magmortar noticed Lilli and his fellow team member. The way he's dressed, he seems to be a higher-up. An admin perhaps.

"Grunt Makaveli, make sure you defeat the girl and so will I to this trainer," he spoke. The grunt nodded and tossed his Poké Ball. From out of it comes a Level 7 female Ponyta. "Tackle!"

Ponyta attempts to Tackle the Absol.

"Absol, use Quick Attack to dodge, then attack Ponyta with it!" Absol dashed to the side just as Ponyta charged it, then she leaped in swiftly, attempting to hit the Ponyta with Quick Attack.

A Ponyta is obviously used to making sudden movements and turns. This helped her skip to the left and dodge a speedy attack. "Tackle!" Once again, she attempts to Tackle.

This time, Absol was knocked back Ponyta's Tackle. "Now, try scratch!" Absol darted forward, and swatted one of her large paws, trying to use Scratch with her large, dark claws.

This time, Ponyta skidded backwards and then hopped over Absol. She's a good jumper. "Hah! Tackle again!" She turns around and attempts another Tackle.

"Absol, let it hit, then counter with Faint Attack!" Pontya's Tackle hit, but Absol quickly retaliated, attempting to hit with Faint Attack.

Ponyta's confidence just kept getting filled with every successful hit. Just as soon as she's feeling like partying, Absol disappears in front and suddenly something slams her behind pushing her. She turned around and saw the Absol is now behind her.

"Another Tackle, Ponyta," the repetitive grunt commanded. Well, what other attacks do Ponyta have in her arsenal anyway?

She attempts to tackle Absol again.

Absol was starting to get the hang of the attacks. She quickly jumped to the side, the I called, "Faint Attack, again!" Absol darted from one side to the other as she tried to hit Ponyta.

Ponyta's hit again. She uses another Tackle.

(Sorry, I was in my lazy mood...)

(Thats okay.) Absol used Quick Attack to dodge, then attacked with Faint Attack.

Another attack from behind. Which cut her last breath for this fight. The impact pushed her to the ground and her face slammed down on the muddy flooring. Ponyta has fainted and Absol has gained 7 EXP.

The grunt has an annoyed frustration of expression on his face. He withdraws his Pokémon back to its Poké Ball. "Awh, I'm all out of Pokémon! Admin! Now what," he said and turned his head to his admin.

Only to find out that they both lost. "Grunt Makaveli! We must escape! Grunt Harken, get us out of here," the admin said withdrawing his fainted Magmortar. From out of a bush behind the admin, comes out another grunt with two Alakazams. The terrorist members gather together and the Pokémon Teleport them away from the forest.

The fires have also been extinguished thanks to the cooperation of the wilds. The Trainer who fought the admin smiles at Lilli. "Hi, thanks for helping me. They're Team Rocket obviously. By the way, be safe on your journey. I must be on my way now. I'm in a busy schedule. Besides, all looks fine now."

And he rides on his Salamence who was merely hurt from that match at all, and they fly away.

360 has been added to Lilli's money.

"Uh... no problem..." I look up and watch as he flies away on his Salamence. "Wow... that was crazy." I sighed. "Absol, return. Great job!" I returned her to her Poke Ball. Normally I would've let her walk with me, but I wasn't sure if there was anything else out there. I continued on my way through the forest.

Note to self: Hnckrw

From a distance is a trainer. He's a young boy and dressed like a Youngster.

A few steps away from Lilli is a wild Mawile. Level 8, female.

"Hey, a Mawile!" I grinned as I saw the Pokemon. "Go, Ryken!" The Charmander landed on the ground as I let him out of his Poke Ball.
