From: Dryad48 <dryad48@aol.com> Subject: [PW!] Grimer Gang vs. Koffing Krew Date: Saturday, May 08, 1999 10:09 AM The Grimer Gang started to leap out the bushes and ran towards the pokemon battle. "Grimer, Grimer, Grimer, Grimer, Grimer!!!" They stood behind Muk and kept on cheering. "You've got a group of Grimer following you around?" asked the girl. "No," a voice said. The two turned to the direction of the speaker. "Dern!" Derrick was surprised. "Uhh.. you accidentaly dropped your Muk in front of the pokemon center." "I know.." Dern opened his jacket to reveal the Cascade Badge. "You already got one?" Derrick asked. "Yeah," Dern bragged. "With ease.." "So anyway," the trainer said. "since its your Muk, I'd rather battle you." Derrick stepped aside as Dern started to command Muk. "Sludge attack!" the two shouted at the same time. Weezing and Muk shot out globs of sludge which only rammed into each other. "Poison Gas!" they commanded at the same time again. Again, simultaneously, the two posion pokemon relieved their gas towards the opponent. Only to find out that it wouldn't affect each other. "uhhh....Tackle?" "uhhh....Pound?" Weezing charged at full speed to Muk. However, with its huge arm, Muk managed to bat away Weezing back to its trainer. "Weezing.." the girl cried to the bruised ball of gas. "Koffing, Koffing, Koffing, Koffing, Koffing!!" All three trainers looked up. "Aww crap!" the girl complained. "huh?" She explained. "You know why the Grimer follow your Muk around, right?" Dern nodded. "Well, same situation here. These Koffing have stalked my Weezing since the Gringy City." "What a coincidence." They heard the noises drawing closer. "Here comes the Koffing Krew!" They raced to the Muk and started tackling Muk. In the end, it was in the same condition as Weezing. "GRRR..." The two groups of pokemon glared at each other. "This is getting too wierd," Derrick said. "I'm going the the gym now." "Hey wait!!" It was too late, Derrick had already abandoned Dern. "Well," Dern thought, "this could take a while." He and the other trainer started to observe the Koffing and Grimer slap each other around.
