Clan Caterpie had arrived in Fuchsia City the night before
and Icy was ready to earn himself a new badge. Insanellama and his friends had
just finished battle Koga. Koga already knew Icy’s true identity since they
had talked about it before going to sleep last night. Now Icy challenged Koga to
a match.
“Very well. I hope you’ve got some Antidotes with you.
You’ll need them!” Koga said.
“No prob...” Icy untied Abra’s pokéball from his tail.
“It will be two on two. GO Venomoth!” Koga throw his pokéball
into the ring. Venomoth popped out. “VENOMOTH!!” it screeched.
“No problem. GO Abra!” Icy floated the pokéball into the
center and Abra came out. “Psychic pokémon are strong against poison! Abra,
use your psybeam!”
“Venomoth, use your wing attack to break its
concentration!” Venomoth flapped its wings quickly and Abra was about to be
blown off balance.
“Abra, teleport!” Abra teleported behind Venomoth.
Before it could react, Abra fired a psybeam at it. Venomoth fainted easily from
the psychic attack. Koga returned it and sent out Weezing.
“Weezing, smokescreen!” The entire gym was covered in
smoke.
“Abra. Ummm. Psybeam again!” Abra could see what he was
doing and fired psybeams everywhere. Koga ducked as one of the beams headed his
way.
“Weezing. Sludge attack now.” Abra never saw it coming.
The sludge blinding it and Icy had to return it.
“Darn. GO Caterpie!” Icy floated Caterpie’s pokéball
over the field, and Caterpie popped out. “String Shot followed by tackle!”
Weezing tried its best to avoid the netting but Icy’s Caterpie was so pumped
with Calcium and other vitamins that its attacks were just too fast. Weezing
fell to the ground covered in string. Caterpie rushed in and tackled it. Weezing
fainted from the impact.
“Very impressive. You have trained that Caterpie well. Here
is the Soul Badge.” He respectfully handed Icy the badge. “I hear the S.S.
Anne will be picking up passengers from Fuchsia City on Friday. You are free to
stay in my gym until then. Team Rocket won’t find you here.”
“Thanks Koga.” Icy returned to the group. It would be a
long day.
