From: Blastoise <OMEGA_0@prodigy.net> Subject: [PW!] Saffron city and that damn Sabrina! Date: Sunday, May 02, 1999 5:09 PM Jeez.. it's been way too long since I did this. Well anyway on with the post! We see our hero Zate walking along the trail to Saffron from Vermilion.. "(Yawn) This is sooo boring. Why aren't any other trainers around here? I need a good battle," complained Zate. He kept walking until he got to the border of Saffron. "Flamey come on out!" Zate yelled throwing the puppy pokémon's pokéball. In a quick flash Flamey was sitting there wagging his tail. "Let's go Flamey. We've got a badge to win!" Zate yelled feeling like he'd already beaten Sabrina. They walked into Saffron city after giving the stupid guard Zate's last container of water. Before Zate went to fight Sabrina he decided to get something to eat. After feeding all of his pokémon and stuffing his own face they went to Sabrina's gym. Zate was now facing Sabrina. "Sabrina! I challenge you to a match for one of your badges!" Zate yelled demandingly. "Very well, then. We will have a 3 on 3 match," announced Sabrina. "Alrighty then! Koffing go!" Zate commanded Koffing floated from Zate's group of pokés and into the battle field. "Go! Mr. Mime!" Sabrina yelled, sending the fat jester. Zate stared at it as if to say "What the hell?". Instead he yelled, "Koffing smoke screen!" and the battle area was covered in a black cloud of gas. "Mr. Mime double slap!" Sabrina yelled hoping he'd find his target. Unfortunately Mr. Mime couldn't even see what he was slapping with. "Koffing Sludge attack!" Zate commanded. Koffing spat some poisonous waste at Mr. Mime hitting him dead on. "Mime!" The roly Polly poké yelled in pain. Zate grinned slightly. "Mr. Mime, confusion!" Sabrina yelled to her pokémon. It fired random blasts around the room. Mr. Mime eventually tired itself out and sat on the ground trying to catch it's breath. "Koffing, one more sludge attack!" Zate yelled knowing that Sabrina's Mr. Mime couldn't take another hit. "Koffing! Koff!" Yelled Koffing splattering some more poison waste on the psychic. Mr. Mime slumped down and fainted. "That's one down! two to go!" Zate exclaimed triumphant over the Mr. Mime. "Humph. Kadabra go!" Sabrina sent out the large psychic pokémon. "Koffing multiple sludge attacks!" Zate commanded "Kadabra psybeam!" Sabrina roared. Zate's Koffing tried to hit the Kadabra but it kept teleporting. Then the Kadabra teleported behind Koffing and hit it with a psybeam. Koffing went down in an instant. "Do'h! Go, Slicer!" Zate ordered. The mantis pokémon sped away from the group and onto the battle field. "Slicer, agility!" Zate commanded Slicer. Slicer started to run around the battle field increasing his speed. "Kadabra! Confusion!" Sabrina yelled. Kadabra kept trying to hit Slicer but, Slicer wouldn't stop moving. "Slicer, Slash!" Sate ordered. The ninja-like pokémon stopped behind the Kadabra and gave it a good swipe. "Dabra!!" Sabrina's pokémon cried out in pain. Slicer whacked it again and again until Sabrina returned Kadabra. "Go! Alakazam!" Sabrina yelled getting very angry. She commanded it to use psybeam and it knocked Slicer out the first hit. "Aw, jeez.. one more chance. Um, go Crusher!" Zate yelled making up his mind. Crusher leaped into battle and instantly went to attack without warning. He bashed Alakazam around for a bit but then... "Alakazam! Psychic!" Sabrina exclaimed in a triumphant tone. BAM! Crusher went down. Zate had lost. His very first loss. Zate couldn't believe it. How could this be? He'd done so well with the other two psychics she'd used. "Hah! I knew I would win!" Sabrina laughed triumphantly. Zate returned all of his pokémon accept Flamey. "Let's go Flamey," Zate said, depressed. They went to the Pokécenter and everyone was healed up. "Everyone, come out!" Zate ordered tossing all of his pokéballs. He looked over to his Koffing who looked like he was constipated or something. Zate walked over to his Koffing. "Hey, what's wrong?" Zate asked, worried. "Koffing!!!" The poisonous pokémon yelled before it began to glow. Zate only stared in disbelief as Koffing evolved into... Whose that pokémon? <Commercials> It's Wheezing! "Wheezing!" "Um, what the hell just happened?" Zate asked refering to the commercials. Zate then redirected his attention to the original subject. "Yes! I have a Wheezing now!" Zate exclaimed excitedly. "Now, let's pay Sabrina another visit!" Zate ylled returning his pokémon and running out the door. TBC...
