Wes together with Endou left the Gym of Pewter City behind them. They moved towards the center square of Pewter City. The square was made from rare minerals excavated in Pewter City. A lot of trees similar to those in Viridian Forest could be seen standing tall full of majesty. Around the square was surrounded with some buildings made from huge boulders giving an ancient and full of mystery vibe. Wes and Endou chose a random cafe to have a discussion.
After all even though they didn't know eachother for a long time, the events in Viridian Forest, they're training session and late night discussions. Made them something more than simple rivals with a similar goal. Since Wes got the Boulder Badge it's time for him to leave Pewter City and visit the next Gym. So they will have to go they're separate ways and this was one last chance to spend some time together, since it will probably take a lot of time for eachother to meet again.
ENDOU: This was an amazing fight. Brock couldn't do anything.
WES: Yes. It went way better than i was expecting. So what's your plans for now?
ENDOU: I plan to challenge Brock tomorrow. After all our training sessions together, i believe i can definitely defeat him.
WES: Of course you can. As for me, my next stop is Cerulean City.
Then they're coffee's arrived and they started talking about different topics including battle strategy's. Then at the evening they split ways. Endou went to his home in Pewter City preparing for tomorrow's Gym battle while Wes went to the Pokemon Center to treat his Pokemon and rest for tomorrow's journey. While Nurse Joy took care of his Pokemon, Wes called his parents back home. His mother was out with Leaf's mother, so he spoke with his father about everything that happened.
Then Wes received his Pokemon back and went to sleep. While he was on the bed, he had in his hand a tiny gray Badge in the shape of a boulder. While looking at it, a tear could be seen falling from his eyes.
" Finally i am truly in the world i desired."
Wes was thinking of his death where he had to make a choice about his reincarnation. Even though, he arrived in this world and he was shocked to see the Pidgey flying throughout Pallet Town, the Pokemon league and Elite Four matches live on TV, or him receiving his first Pokemon. Something made Wes think that was missing. After gaining this badge he finally felt sure that he was in the Pokemon World for sure.
In the morning Wes woke up after those nostalgic thoughts and left Pewter City for Route 3 moving towards Mt. Moon.
Route 3 was a path carved into a mountain with only some patches of grass that Wild Pokemon could hide. Wes immediately checked about the encounters of this route.
ROUTE 3:
Pidgey: Very Common LV 1-13
Spearow: Very Common LV 1-13
Mankey: Common LV 1- 15
Jigglypuff: Rare LV 1-14
Nidoran♂: Rare LV 1-15
Nidoran♀: Rare LV1-15
Nidorino: Very Rare LV 16-18
Nidorina: Very Rare LV 16-18
Charmander: Ultra Rare LV 1- 15
Charmeleon: Ultra Rare LV 16-20
" So there is a Charmander here. That's good."
So Wes started searching for a Charmander while training his Pokemon. He also encountered a Bug catcher.
WES: Metapod take the stage.
BUG CATCHER: Caterpie i choose you.
Then the battle began
WES: Metapod use Harden.
BUG CATCHER: Caterpie Tackle
Then Metapod glowed while Caterpie hit Metapod with the Tackle Move sending it backwards.
WES: Metapod use Electroweb
Before the Bug catcher or his Caterpie could react. Metapod threw a web made with pure electricity, hiting Caterpie directly. Caterpie received critical damage
WES: Metapod one more Electroweb.
BUG CATCHER: Tackle Caterpie.
Caterpie immediately dashed towards Metapod but Metapod's Electroweb hit first. Caterpie fainted making Metapod the winner. Then Metapod started glowing in a white bright light and Metapod's cocoon broke of reviling a Butterfree.
" Finally. it was about time Metapod evoved. Let's see your summary."
Butterfree: female LV 10 Ability: Compound Eyes Item: no
Moves: Tackle, String Shot, Harden, Electroweb, Gust.
Wes was satisfied with his Butterfree. Butterfree Ability without a problem after evolution became Compound Eyes.
After that during the night Bulbasaur and Nidoran♂ started also glowing in white light, their appearance rapidly changing. In their place appeared they're evolved forms. A Nidorino and an Ivysaur.
Wes was totally excited for this event. After all in a single day 3 of his Pokemon evolved. Now his Eevee is the one that's left. Ivysaur will need to gain 16 Levels to evolve again, while Nidorino will need a Moon stone. Luckily for Wes, Moon stones can be found into his destination Mt. Moon. Wes immediately checked the summary's of his newly evolved Pokemon.
Nidorino: male. LV 16 Ability: Poison Point Item: no
Moves: Lear, Peck, Sucker Punch (Baby), Head Smash (Baby), Focus Energy, Double Kick, Protect (TM).
Ivysaur: male LV 16 Ability: Chlorophyll Item: no
Moves: Tackle, Growl, Swords Dance (Baby), Seed Bomb (Baby), Leech Seed, Vine Whip, Sleep Powder, Protect (TM).
" Everything looks fine. Now i only need to find one Charmander to catch. I only found 2 today, but both of them weren't good enough. I need to reach Mt. Moon by tomorrow since i lost a lot of time in Viridian Forest, though i had a lot of gains. I also need to find a Moon stone since Nidorino needs one to evolve."
Wes was writing in a notebook he had, the plans for the upcoming days. After he ate with his Pokemon he fell asleep. Ivysaur and Nidorino will be the first guards for the night followed by Umbreon and Eevee. In the morning Wes moved towards Mt. Moon while training his Pokemon and battling both trainers and wild Pokemon. Wes finally was close to Mt. Moon but suddenly a powerful Dragon Pulse attack was moving straight for him. Wes immediately summoned Umbreon.
WES: Umbreon use Protect.
The Dragon Pulse hit the green dome that Umbreon created and it exploded with a boom 💥. After the smoke subsided Wes finally had view of what wild Pokemon had attacked him. After Wes saw his attacker a big smirk could be seen on his face.
