Ch 15 : Rescue

After Charmaleon Felt the changes in his body, He roared Excitedly before Running towards Ignis. When he arrived in front of him, Charmaleon Raised his head proudly with a ' Praise Me ' Look in his face.

Ignis Saw the obviousness of what his charmaleon was thinking and couldn't Help but Chuckle Beneath his wooden mask. He bent down and Rubbed Charmaleon's scaly head While smiling.

" Good job buddy, You did great on that fight "

Charmaleon Closed his eyes as a smile was clearly Plastered in his Face as he Enjoyed the warmth of Ignis' Touch.

After Congratulating Charmaleon, Ignis turned around and looked at His opponent, Super Nerd and Noticed his Grim expression.

" So, That's it. I won the battle and the bet so These guys are mine "

After saying that, Ignis Walks towards he small platform where The two Fossils Were located at. As Ignis was walking towards his Rewards, He noticed the Bitter and hesitant look of Super Nerd as he Turn his gaze between the Fossils and ignis.

" What? You want to go back on your own words? "

Super Nerd Clearly Heard the displeasure In Ignis' Voice and could Only Sigh in defeat as Bitterness Filled his face.

Ignis saw his expression and sneered as he took out the Knife Made from stone he created when he was at The forest Behind pallet town. The knife stabbed and Carved the Two Fossils out of The Platform. When he Raised The Fossils, He noticed that one of the two Fossils was Incredibly Different from the ones Supposed to be Placed in here just like in the Game.

As A Pokemon Lover, Ignis played different kinds of Pokemon games in his previous life. Especially The Platinum Version. In there, When he reached Groment City, He Entered a cave and Acquired Two Fossils. one was the fossil that will turn into a rampardos while the other was a sky Fossil.

The Fossils in his hand was the Fossil that will turn Ito a Kabuto while the other was the sky Fossil. Ignis frowned But Placed the both of them in his Dimensional Backpack.

Seeing Ignis Hide the Fossils, Super Nerd sighed and Decided to Call it a day before Walking away from the Cave to return to Pewter City. Ignis saw him walk away and also Decided to Return to Pewter City to Resupply.

Super Nerd Noticed Ignis behind him but didnt pay him any attention Any further and continued on walking back to Pewter City. The two Didn't talked to each other as they reached Pewter City. the two split up, Super Nerd headed towards the pokemon Center while Ignis Headed for the Pokemart to but the items He needed For his Journey towards the next Gym.

After Resupplying, Ignis Took his Pokemons to the Pokémon center for a quick Check up before proceeding to The next city, Cerulean City. As Ignis was walking, He Was contemplating about the Fight that will happen when he challenged the gym Of Cerulean City. The Gym there Was a Water type One so with his current pokemons,Ignis knew that he was Clearly At the disadvantage.

However, Ignis Shook that thought off. Why worry about things like that? Charmaleon Won against Onix when he was Still a Charmander in Pewter City. Charmaleon was clearly at the tupe disadvantage That time but relying on his Speed, Charmaleon, Who was a Charmander at that time, Dodged all the Rock attacks thrown to him by Onix.

While Ignis was Continuing his journey, He noticed a Huge truck at the distance. He also saw People Wearing black uniforms Whole carrying Caged with Tons of pokemons were all inside of It.

Ignis recognized these guys as the team rocket especially the very obvious "R" On their chests.

Ignis frowned under his mask.

' These guys Have been becoming more Active During these past few days. They even ran rampant In some Cities In broad daylight. '

Ignis Took out A Black Pokeball and Released Rayquaza From it. As Rayquaza Wasn't able to go out Of his Pokeball since Ignis was busy battling with other Trainers, no Noticeable changes can be seen on his body.

Seeing that he was out from the Pokeball, Rayquaza was about to Let out a roar when he noticed the grim Aura of His Trainer. Swallowing the Roar in his mouth, Rayquaza Crouched and followed his trainer's Gaze and Was enraged when he saw the people in Black clothings Loading Cages containing dozens of pokemons to the large Truck Behind them.

" Rayquaza, Prepare Dark pulse "

Ignis' Cold voice Resounded as He dashed towards The People Trafficking the Poor pokemons While carrying A katana He bought on a blacksmith shop in Pewter City. While charging Towards Team Rocket, Ignis released Charmaleon and Gible and immediately Told them to Rescue All the pokemons inside the truck while he distract the people.

The Grunts Loading the truck with pokemons noticed the Man approaching in the distance. They saw the Weird outfit of this man and when they Saw the Glaring Blade at the man's Arm, They immediately Categorized him as An enemy.

Shoutes and yellings was heard around the truck as Pokemons Released by team rocket Came out. Zubats, Ratticate, Puchiyana, And houndours Appeared On Team Rocket's Side.

Ignis Brandished his Katana Left and right before Leaping into the Crowd of Team Rocket. Although Ignis was not that good with Swordplay, He still know how to Hit an Enemy.

He slashed Left and right, Vertically or horizontally. It didnt matter if it was a Pokémon or a person, They all suffered a slash of Ignis' Blade. The pokemons around him tried to Attack him with moves but using the speed he Acquired through all of that training From The forest Behind pallet Town to now, He Dodged all of the attacks and continued his Rampage in the middle of the Crowd.

As chaos Happened outside the Truck, Team Rocket Didn't Noticed that a Pair of pokemons Drilled and Blasted a whole on the Truck and Released the pokemons in the cage before leading them all outside.

Ignis noticed this in his peripheral vision and Immediately leaped away before speeding into the Distance. Enraged by his Sudden attack from earlier, The majority of team rocket Gave chase while the orders remained to recuperate themselves.

After resting for a bit, one of those who remained Stood up and went to the truck only to be stunned when he saw the empty cages Inside of it.

Anger filled the grunt's heart before his eyes rolled back and fell to the ground. He fainted From anger!

...

Meanwhile, Ignis Shook Off his pursuers Before Meeting up with charmaleon and the others. Ignis saw the pitiful Appearances of the Rescued pokemons And shot them all with a sympathizing gaze. Ignis Contemplated for a moment before Deciding to Take them on a safe place before Continuing his journey towards Cerulean City.
