As he was sighing here, he felt a bump on his foot.
He looked down at a dirt pile and dug his hand in, pulling out a Corphish!
Ace was dumbfounded, as was the Corphish!
What the hell?
This Corphish thinks its a Diglett!?/This Human is harder than steel!
Ash ran over, "That's the Corphish from the other day!" Ace looked at Ash as the Corphish slammed Ace with a Crab Hammer, "You caught this Corphish the other day?" Max shouted in shock, "Mr Ace, watch out!"
Ace felt a tickle and looked at the Corphish, who was looking at his claw in shock, "Cor?"
Rough Translation: 'Blast! These claws usually do crush rocks like churned butter~ How doth this human train the flesh and bone to such sublime degrees?!'
Ace stopped paying attention to this guy and threw him at Ash, "Go ahead and catch him!" Ash nodded and said "Come on, Treecko!"
Treecko jumped out of the bush and crossed his arms, "Tree." Corphish waved his claws, "Corphish!!!"
'Foolish knave! How dareth you posture so arrogantly in front of me? This cannot be tolerated! Face my holy claws, heathen!'
Treecko stood there as Ash said "Wait… Now Treecko! Trailblaze!" Treecko dodged the Claw and sprang off the ground and slapped Corphish with his tail, disappearing instantly!
Ace was surprised, this Treecko is pretty good! He got the move right away! I don't have to use a TM!
Ash pointed, "Now! Get him! Pound!" Treecko appeared and slammed his tail down as Corphish shot a bubble beam from his claw but… The tail went right through and slapped Corphish in the face!
Ash threw his hand up, "Now! Quickly Attack!" Corphish went flying and Ash threw a Pokeball, catching the Corphish. He picked up the ball and cheered, "Yeah, Treecko! Awesome!" Treecko jumped up and high-fived Ash happily.
The group smiled and Ace cooked for everyone with Brock's help.
After May made Hatenna cry with her intense happiness during eating, everyone went to sleep.
A week slowly passed
Ace was looking at a waterfall as he said, "Want to see what's up there?" Ash shouted, "Oh boy! Do I!" Brock nodded, "Me too!" May waved, "Oh Oh!" Max nodded and Ace crouched in front of Max, "Climb up."
Max climbed up and Ash asked, "Are we gonna take turns?" Ace looked at him and laughed with a bit of evil, "Turns? No, Max is just too young for the next training!"
Brock, May, Ash: ???
Ace stepped into the water and said, "Hold on tight, Max." as he grabbed the stones behind the waterfall, "You can't just train your Pokemon, you have to train yourself too!"
Ash, Brock, and May were dumbfounded, "CLIMBING THE WATERFALL!?" Ace climbed through the waterfall easily, laughing, "Come on, kids. I could do this when I was 4 years old!" Max was dumbfounded, "Really?!"
Ace nodded seriously, "Uh-huh! I was thrown into a jungle when I was 6." Max blinked in disbelief as Ace stood at the top of the waterfall, looking down, "Come on!"
Ash ran over, "It doesn't look hard, right Pikachu?" Pikachu touched his lips, "Pi-Pika…?" Ace waved a bottle of Ketchup at the top of the waterfall, making Pikachu freeze.
His eyes burst with flames and he started climbing himself! Ash shouted, "Wait for me, Pikachu!" as he followed him.
Ace looked at May and Brock, laughing, "Do you want help?" they were speechless as Ace grabbed Max's ankles, "Huh?" as Ace jumped off the waterfall, laughing, "Hold onto your glasses!"
Max shrieked, "KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~" as Ace made a big splash in the pool at the bottom. He surfaced again with Max having spirals for eyes, "I got knocked out…" Ace laughed and smiled, "It's not that bad, I promise."
The two tried as Ash flew by them, falling into the pool. They swallowed as Ace chuckled, "Feel the water hitting your muscles, this is the most important part! It'll make your shoulder muscles hard as rocks!" Brock cried, "I think I'm gonna get washed away!"
Ace chuckled as he caught May with one arm, putting her back on the rocks, "Keep going, kid. All that jumping and dancing in your Contests needs endurance!" May wanted to cry, "May's Super Expedition hits a road block!"
Ace turned back, "Ash! Come on! A Pokemon Master can do this easily!" Ash jumped up and shook his fist at nature itself, "Argh! I'll beat you, waterfall!" as he ran over, climbing up quickly.
Ace nodded, not bad, the Physical Education he had Ash do when he was a kid is paying off.
As they were playing here, a big Mudkip looked at them from the cliff with a bunch of smaller Mudkip. The Mudkip were stunned, "Mudkip? Mud!" the Big Mudkip said, "Mudkip??" The smaller ones fell over comically, "Mud.."
Brock gasped, "What a big Mudkip!" he seemed to startle a baby Mudkip as it fell into the water and flew off the waterfall! Brock was shocked, "Mudkip!" as he jumped off the waterfall, catching the Mudkip in mid-air!
He turned and splashed into the water, surfacing on the shore, putting down the Mudkip, "Are you okay?" The Mudkip patted his chest, never had he seen such excitement in his entire life, "Mudkip!"
Brock rubbed the Mudkip, his hands glowing green as the Mudkip squeezed its eyes shut in enjoyment, "Muuuuuddd….Kiiiippp~" Brock smiled as he looked up, scratching his head.
Ash fell from the waterfall again with Pikachu falling on his head.
Ace looked down and helped May again. They reached the top and Ace put Max down, jumping into the pool. He swam over to Brock, looking at him, "You should bring the Mudkip up first, yeah?" Brock nodded and called out Onix, "Onix, bring this Mudkip to the others, okay?"
Onix nodded, "Onix!" as Brock put the Mudkip on Onix's head. Onix went over and stretched out, placing the Mudkip with the rest as the Big Mudkip looked at Brock, "Mudkip!"
Ace looked at the Mudkip and whispered, "Hey Ash." Ash looked at him and blinked, "I think Misty would like a Mudkip too, right?" Ash's eyes lit up and he said, "Yeah! I should thank her for helping me after all!"
Ace nodded understandingly, "Yes yes…" Ash climbed the Waterfall, "Mudkip! Here I come!"
