Last time, Icy was ambushed once again by Team Rocket. After a
group of
Clefairies saved him, he continued his journey through Mt. Moon. And now...
>-- Icy Battles Misty --<
Icy looked down at the beautiful city below him. Cerulean City was well
known for its beauty and water gardens. Icy decided it would be best to heal
his pokémon at the pokécenter before competing for a Cascade Badge. Another
one of Joy's cousins, sisters, whichever, took Icy's pokéballs and
revitalized them. Icy had a quick snack while he waited. Soon after, a
Chansey brought him his pokéballs. "Chan, Chansey!" "Thanks," Icy
said as
he took his pokéballs and released his Caterpie, Pikachu, and Abra. "Let's
go earn a badge!" He walked confidently toward the Cerulean City Gym. As he
approached, he saw three figures he thought to be human and one pokémon.
"Must be having a warm-up battle before taking on Misty." Icy disregarded
them and entered the gym. It looked more like an aquarium then a gym. Icy
asked the girl at the front desk where he could find Misty. She directed him
to the main gym room. Icy walked down the corridor leading to the main room
and found himself in front of a large swimming pool. In one corner of the
gym, a young girl with a rather odd ponytail was shining her Starmie.
"Excuse me, but I'm looking for the gym leader. Have you seen her little
girl?" Misty flipped out. "I AM THE GYM LEADER AND I'M NOT LITTLE!" She
clinched her fist, ready for a fight. "3 on 3 battle. Agreed?"
"Uh-huh."
Icy nodded. "Let's get started then. Misty calls, Staryu!" A five-pointed
starfish jumped onto the platform. "Go Pikachu!" Pikachu jumped onto the
floating platform. "Pikachu, thunderbolt now!" "Uh-no. Staryu, dive
underwater..." Then Misty realized the terrible mistake she had just made.
Pikachu used its thunderbolt on the water, electrifying the pool along with
Staryu. "Owww. Staryu, return! Misty calls, Starmie!" This time, a
ten-pointed starfish appeared. "No problem. Thunderbolt, Pikachu!" "Not
again. Starmie, hit it with your psybeam now!" "Crap. Agility now
Pikachu!" Starmie began to glow and then shot a colorful blast of energy at
Pikachu who quickly dodged it by a hair. "Counter attack now Pikachu.
Thunderbolt!" Pikachu complied sending a massive amount of electricity at
the starfish. Starmie was flung into the wall, smashing its core. "Ohh.
Starmie, return! Misty regretfully calls, Psyduck!" "Psy-yi-yiii!" The
Psyduck appeared. "Confusion attack, Psyduck!" But Psyduck couldn't
remember how to do his attacks. In the morning, he had a splitting headache
and took some aspirin to relieve it, now it was headache-free. "Pikachu,
will you please do the honors!" Pikachu smiled, then proceeded to using its
most powerful attack, Thunder. Just the show off, Pikachu created a massive
vortex above Psyduck, who just stared blankly into it. Then, large lightning
bolts came crashing down on the Psyduck, reducing it to a perfect duck
dinner. Misty recalled Psyduck and congratulated Icy on his victory. "You
remind me of someone I met a long time ago. He had a cute little Pikachu
too. Well, here you go, a Cascade Badge." Icy thanked Misty and asked if it
would be ok for him to stick around. She agreed. Just then, a few younger
students came into the room and Misty began teaching a lesson on pokémon
battles. She seemed glad that they didn't get to see her embarrassing loss
from just a few minutes ago. Icy listened in just in case he could catch a
few pointers.
