Chapter 4: Shocking Revelations
We have arrived in Vermillion City. Things seemed calm now. There was a buzz around town that Lt. Surge of the Thunder Gym knew we were coming, so he barricaded the doors with a tree. To get past, we would need the help of the cut master aboard the S.S Anne. But first, we needed some training.
First, we needed some extra firepower. Enter the brownest pokemon in all of Kanto: HINDU the diglett [Author's note: Diggle would have made a funnier diglett, but it's just SO brown!]
The whole team was training hard east of Vermillion until something unexpected happened.
"We're traniing! We're training!" sang ARTEMYS, as he vinewipped through the various spearows and rattata's in the field.
"I'm unstoppable! I will be the highest DPS in all the-----FFFFFFFF".
At that moment, a stray raticate critically hit him with a super fang and instantly destroyed him

Still breathing, he looked at the rest of us and said, "GLITCH....... Everyone.... I never knew.... OLYMPIA... but I now understand why he gave his life for the team. I can see him now... He's still with you, and I will be too................."
With that, he closed his belsprout eyes and faded away.
"Men! The death of ARTEMYS will not slow us down. OLYMPIA and ARTY are still fighting along with us. The only way to honour their sacrifice is to defeat the elite 4. Let's take out that washed up military scum, Surge and get out of this hell hole"
First, a stop aboard the SS Anne. DEANO was prone to seasickness, so he decided to sit this one out. Instead, our new drowsee, DIGGLE came along. As we moved to barge into the cut master's room and take what was ours, we were stopped by biggest jerk in all the land:

Predictable as always, he send out his Pidgeotto, which HATEME dispatched with a rollout attack. Our old nemesis, raticate came in and nearly defeated her, so ZILO stepped in to finish it off with a seed bomb. KINSAWT's newest threat, Kadabra entered the arena to threaten ZILO with a psychic attack, but its psychic powers could not anticipate a switch-in to SZETH who took him out with a quick bite attack.
The team was beginning to understand the true meaning of teamwork. We claimed HM-01 CUT from the cut master and stormed Lt. Surge's fortress. HINDU stepped up and said, "Leave this whole gym to me!!"
Immune to electricity and stocked with ground attacks, he defeated every trainer and Lt. Surge by himself. Claiming the thunderbadge as his own, HINDU decided that we would sell it and farm another one, but there was no time. We had to move on to the next gym.
What lies ahead of us on our journey? Will HINDU sell his lootz? Find out next chapter!

Chapter 5: With great power.....
After defeating Lt. Surge. The next destination was the Rock Tunnel. As we approached the cave, we were all reminded of the first tragedy of our journey: Mt. Moon. This might have looked similar if it wasn't pitch black inside. There was no way that we were going to make it through this dark cave. Just then, something unique happened. A ghostly apparition resembling a belsprout appeared before us and said, "GLITCH... you must make it though... it will all become clear in Lavender town". The belsprout then burst into a flash of light which illuminated the entire cave. Was this the spirit of ARTEMYS helping us? Either way, it was time to move forward.
DIGGLE and ZILO took care of most of the fighting and poison types in the cave. Their bravery was rewarded.

We also met a brutish Onix named HOKUSHIN, and brought it along because we felt sorry for it.
Lavender town is the home of the Pokemon Tower. A place where restless pokemon spirits stay

Could this be what ARTEMYS was trying to show us? Could we pay our respects to him and OLYMPIA here? We walked in to find out, only to be met by THE BIGGEST, ARROGANT, INSENSITIVE JERK I'VE EVER SEEN.
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
GOD what a dick! I refused to let him harsh on my dead friends, so I sent NIRRON, HATEME, and ZILO after him.
His new friend gyarados nearly kill all three of them, but they managed to persevere. SZETH sent KINSAWT's ivysaur packing, and big KINS left the tower with his tail between his legs.
As it turns out, the pokemon tower is haunted by dangerous ghosts, and the only way to get past them is to use the Sylph Scope, which has been commandeered by Team Rocket in Celadon City. My team was ready to beat them down, gain a new gym badge, and get in some gambling and shopping all over Celadon.
Lavender and Celadon are connected via a long underground tunnel. On the other side, we met a cute little 14 year old vulpix named SWARWS, and walked into the city. Celadon had become overridden with organized crime, so we knew team rocket had to be close. Before storming their base, I picked up a new friend from the Gamefreak building, a level 25 jolteon named RUSL. I also decided that HATEME needed a makeover!

And so, we stormed the base. You'd figure that mobsters would shoot you for invading their base, but instead, they just threw rats and birds at us. No problem for my seasoned team, though! At the end of the sub-sub-sub-sub basement, we met their leader, Giovanni. DEANO rushed into the fight and decimated his Onix and Rhyhorn. Giovanni became fierce and sent out his trump card, Kangaskhan.
DEANO got to work stunning and confusing his foe as usual. Kangaskhan, in a last ditch effort to defend Giovanni's honour, broke through the strategy with a critical Mega Punch.

As DEANO's floated to the ground on broken wings, he managed to utter, "Aveengggeee me......!"
Our new friend SWARWS, who barely even knew DEANO exploded into a violent rage and took out kangaskhan with a flamethrower attack. Giovanni managed to escape in the confusion and we walked out with our Silph Scope.
To reward SWARWS for his bravery, I gave him a fire stone

"Thank you, GLITCH. Let me repay you", he said as he bolted away. We tried to catch him but couldn't keep up. Eventually we saw smoke in the distance and it became clear that SWARWS went into Erika's grass-type gym alone and defeated every single trainer, including Erika and then set the gym on fire. He brought me the Rainbowbadge and said, "let's get the hell out of here".
Now, with a third friend to lay to rest at the Pokemon Tower, we backtracked with our Silph Scope in hand...

CHAPTER 5: The End
Well, half of my team left to the PokeMac Server, and now I don't have enough pokemon to defeat the next gym. I guess it's time to sell all of my potions, ultra balls and zincs to Team Rocket and go home to Pallet Town.
THE END
That was actually the ending and I never updated it again and everyone was mad
