The Journey of Ash Ketchum(Kanto)

A.J.

A.J.

Before the gang left Cerulean City, they heard someone broke into a couple's house. They investigated the crime scene & found out that a Team Rocket grunt was the culprit, Ash battled the grunt with his Spearow & in the process, Spearow evolved into Fearow. After Ash defeated the grunt, the grunt gave Ash a TM that he stole. The TM was a TM28 containing the move Dig. After the grunt was arrested, The gang were on their way to Vermillion City for Ash's next gym badge. On the way Ash ended up battling a few trainers. Then they heard that a trainer named A.J. who trains savage Pokémon, has his own gym, & hasn't lost a single match. When they arrived at the unofficial gym

"99 battles? This might be difficult for me." Ash said

"Can I help you?" A boy with a black & red shirt, blue shorts, red shoes, & spiky dark green hair said.

"Are you A.J.?" Ash asked

"Yep, That's me." A.J. answered "Which one of you is my challenger?"

"I am" Ash said

"Hm, well I hope you can give me more of a challenge" A.J. said

The gate opened & a Butterfree flew over to A.J.

"Free Free" Butterfree greeted

"Thanks Butterfree, it's good to be back." A.J. said "Can you take my bag inside, please?"

"Free" Butterfree said as it took his bag & flew inside

"Thanks Butterfree" A.J. said

"Is that one of your Pokémon?" Serena asked

"Yep, raised from a little Caterpie. There's a bunch more inside, you're welcome to see them after the match" A.J said

Ash & A.J. went to the battlefield & got into battle position

"which Pokémon are you gonna choose?" A.J. asked

"I'm going with my first Pokémon, Pikachu." Ash said

"Pikachu" Pikachu said as he stepped into the battlefield

"A Pikachu huh? Then in that case, I'm going with my first Pokémon" A.J. said as he pulled out a whip & hit the ground with it. Then a Sandshrew popped out of ground & stepped into the battlefield.

"Sandshrew" Sandshrew said

"After I win 100 matches in a row, I'll start competing for badges." A.J. said "You got any badges, kid?"

"I have, I've gotten two badges" Ash answered

"Hm, I hope you didn't buy them or steal them, cause I would be plenty disappointed. Cause like I said, I hope you can give me a challenge. You should know that Electric type moves don't work on Ground type Pokemon." A.J. pointed out

"I know that & I wasn't planning on using Electric type moves." Ash said

"Good, now enough talk, let's battle" A.J. said

ASH VS A.J.

"Pikachu, use Quick Attack" Ash said. Pikachu became surrounded by light blue aura & charged at Sandshrew with quick speed

"Use Defense Curl" A.J. said. Sandshrew curled up into a ball & got tackled by Pikachu

"Sandshrew, Use Rollout" A.J. said

"Counter it with your Rollout" Ash said

Both Pokémon glowed a bright color & roll into each other repeatedly

"Use Metal Claw" A.J. said. Sandshrew's claw became surrounded by a metallic claw-shaped aura & charged at Pikachu

"Use Flash." Ash said. Pikachu glowed white & shined in a bright light which blinded Sandshrew.
