Ch. 6: The Tiniest Pokémon

 

In an empty field Jaden and his Pokémon sit in the field lazing about.

            “Ah, this is relaxing don’t you think so Axel, Gen?” Jaden asks his Pokémon as they cry out in agreement. “Okay then now for snacks.” Jaden says reaching into his bag and pulling out rice balls.

As Jaden in his Pokémon eat the rice balls a tiny creature crawls up to them hiding in the bushes before reaching Frogadier and shocking it.

            “Gen what happened?” Jaden asks looking at Frogadier who lies on the ground shocked after the electric attack.

Frogadier get’s up and looks around before noticing a creature hiding in a lone tree and running up to it and blasting it with a blast of scalding water.

            “What was that?” Jaden says looking as a small creature falls from the tree and looks closely at it as it lies on the ground. “What’s that?” Jaden asks looking at the creature. “That’s a Joltik.” Jaden says looking at the Joltik.

Joltik looks at Jaden before getting scared and wanders off towards the nearby bushes.

            “That was an interesting little Pokémon.” Jaden says looking at Joltik crawling away. “I want to catch it.” Jaden says as he chases after Joltik with his Pokémon chasing after him.

The group follows the Joltik into an odd cave with glowing and floating stones.

            “Wow what is this place?” Jaden asks curiously looking around.

            “Well these are the Gnome Tunnels specifically a set of tunnels that are electrified and are the home to a few electric types.” A large man says walking up to Jaden and his Pokémon.

            “Who are you?” Jaden asks curiously.

            “Oh me, I’m Ervin, just a simple miner digging out these.” Ervin says holding open a large bag full of thunderstones.

            “What are those?” Jaden asks curiously.

            “These are Thunderstones, their special little stones that let certain Pokémon evolve, and they sale for a high price.” Ervin says happily.

            “So you dig these things out and sell them?” Jaden asks curiously.

            “Yup, and may I ask how you found this little cavern of mine.” Ervin asks Jaden.

            “I followed a little Joltik here; it crawled into a crack outside.” Jaden says pointing to a crack in the cavern wall.

            “A crack must be the work of those Durants wandering around in here.” Ervin says looking at the cracks.

            “Durants?” Jaden asks curiously.

            “Yeah, a small group of them wandered their way into here a few days ago.” Ervin says explaining things to Jaden. “They keep digging and make more holes in the walls; I guess their trying to make a new colony.” Ervin says thinking about the situation.

            “So the Durants are causing trouble?” Jaden says thinking about things.

As the group stand around Jaden notices Joltik running around before noticing a Durant attacking it.

            “Axel, Flame Charge.” Jaden yells out to Combusken who stomps around before igniting and charging into the Durant. “Are you okay?” Jaden asks walking up to the Joltik.

            “Ah, those little guys.” Ervin says looking at the Joltik. “The Durants took their home and made it their new colony; they’ve been crawling around looking for a safe haven.” Ervin says explaining things to Jaden.

            “So your home was taken away huh?” Jaden says talking to the Joltik who shakes around.            “Okay then, guys let’s go help out the Joltik.” Jaden says happily looking towards his Pokémon.

            “Are you sure that’s a good idea?” Ervin asks Jaden before he runs off.

            “What do you mean; I’m just going to help the little guys.” Jaden says to Ervin.

            “Listen here, sometimes it’s best to leave these things alone, I mean messing around with an area’s ecology is never good news, and its best not to mess with nature and stuff like that.” Ervin says explaining things to Jaden.

            “That’s not what it’s about; it’s about helping a friend here or there, and the Durant are pushing Joltik and its family out their homes.” Jaden says explaining himself to Ervin before rushing off.

            “Geez kid, those hot blooded types are hard to handle.” Ervin says as Jaden runs off.

A while later Jaden looks at a small group of Durant as they dig deeper and deeper into the cavern.

            “Is this your home?” Jaden asks Joltik who shakes in agreement. “Okay then, where’s the leader.” Jaden says looking around before noticing a larger Durant ordering the other’s around.

            “What are you doing kid?” Ervin asks Jaden suddenly appearing.

            “Pokémon like Durant take orders from a big boss, the strongest of the group and when someone takes them down the group dissipates without their leadership.” Jaden says explaining his plan.

            “So then your plan is to take out the boss.” Ervin says thinking about Jaden’s plan.

            “Well that’s not all of it; if you catch it then you could order it to make the group dissipate.” Jaden says holding up a Poke’ball.

            “So then you’re gonna catch it and then make it leave the Joltik alone.” Ervin says still trying to grasp Jaden’s plan.

            “Okay then let’s do this.” Jaden says excitedly as he rushes down into the Durant pit.

Jaden eventually manages to get into the pit as the Durants look at him angered by his presence as they approach him.

            “Axel, Flame Charge.” Jaden says to Combusken who ignites itself and charges at the group of Durant stopping before reaching the leader.

            “Okay then Axel let’s take on the boss.” Jaden says to Combusken who tries to attack the large Durant before it’s suddenly shocked.

Unbeknownst to anyone Joltik manages to crawl off Jaden and onto the large Durant before shocking it with an electric attack.

            “What the?” Jaden says looking at the Joltik. “You wanted to fight for your friends huh?” Jaden asks Joltik as it’s thrown off.

The Durant charges at Joltik who’s shaking scared of the Durant but manages to barely dodge as it hits the wall behind it. It then begins to dig in the dirt and then comes from under Joltik hitting it.

            “Joltik, listen to me.” Jaden says to Joltik trying to get it to listen as the fight goes on. “If you want to win you can’t be scared.” Jaden says to Joltik trying to encourage it. “You can do this just believe in yourself.” Jaden says as Joltik is cornered.

            “What are you doing kid, get in there.” Ervin says trying to get Jaden to join the fight.

            “No, it’s best for Joltik to do this itself and protect its home.” Jaden says to Ervin explaining his actions.

Joltik then creates a large electrified web blocking Durant, before shocking Durant knocking it unconscious.

            “Okay then.” Jaden says before attempting to throw the Poke’ball at Durant before tripping and dropping the Poke’ball.

The ball rolls in front of Ervin who grabs the Poke’ball and throws it at the unconscious Durant, catching it.

            “Okay then, that’s a capture.” Ervin says happily at the catch.

A while later Jaden stands in front of the cave with his Pokémon saying goodbye to Ervin.

            “Are you sure you don’t want this little guy?” Ervin asks trying to hand Jaden Durant’s Poke’ball.

            “No, technically you caught it so it’s yours; I’m not really good with throwing Poke’balls yet.” Jaden says thinking about the situation.

            “Okay then, I’ll watch the little guy, you take care of yourself little guy.” Ervin says as Jaden walks off.

As Jaden and his Pokémon walk around headed towards the next town, when his Pokémon notice odd noises coming from the nearby bushes, before the Pokémon check the bushes and Joltik pops out of the bushes before crawling on Jaden’s arm.

            “It’s you again.” Jaden says looking at Joltik who looks at him happily. “What are you doing here shouldn’t you be with your family back at the cave.” Jaden says looking at Joltik.

Joltik looks at Jaden before crawling on to Jaden’s head and shocking him.

            “Do you want to go with me?” Jaden asks the Joltik as it crawls around him happily. “Okay then, little guy then come along with us, I guess I’ll call you Tik” Jaden says as him and his Pokémon run off.

Before anyone wants to debate me, I know Joltic isn't technically the smallest Pokemon anymore okay.
