Ash and Serena: Kanto Journey (Pokemon)

Chapter 14: Paras' Weakness Policy

I thought of uploading two chapters, but I didn't have enough time. I will definitely do it some other time.

Enjoy!

It was the next day since Ash got his Gym Badge from Brock. Speaking of Brock, he joined the gang to achieve his goal as a Pokémon Breeder. It's just a day and Brock has already been helpful and became much easier. He has cooked them a dinner, which was very luxury during the journey. Now, kids had eaten the breakfast and, Ash and Serena were having their Pokémon Battle.

"Paras, use Scratch attack!" Serena called out.

"Butterfree, use Gust to send it flying!" Ash commanded.

Butterfree obeyed and flapped it's wings. Paras was easily sent flying and knocked to the ground unconscious.

"Uhh...Paras is unable to battle. Butterfree is the winner..." Misty said as she was confused. "Already!?"

"Okay...that ended fast..." Ash said in stone face.

"Pi..." it muttered.

"Oh Paras..." Serena picked up Paras with a sad smile.

"Para..." it was really sad that it lost the match pretty early.

"To be fair, Paras is four time weak against Flying Type." Misty told her.

"I know you want to get stronger and I will not let you down. I will help you no matter what." Serena told her Pokémon, which cried back happily.

"I'm going to help you too! Pikachu, let's do this right now!" Ash said to his partner.

"Pika!" it cried with thumbs up.

"You want this Paras?" Serena asked her Pokémon.

"Para!" it made a sound with it's pinsir. It was determined to get stronger.

The gang didn't seems to notice that, they were spied by the trio of Team Rocket with binoculars. They were observing them from behind the tree.

"Hey, shouldn't we get to the Mt.Moon?" Meowth asked.

"Let's just snatch that brat's Pokémon and look, there's the Gym Leader, Brock Harrison. We can steal his Pokémon as well." Jessie said evilly.

"I don't know. Brock's Pokémon are pretty powerful. Even those brats' Pokémon have gotten pretty stronger, maybe except for that Paras." James said as he touched his chin.

"Hmmm. Paras is normally considered as a weak Pokémon." Meowth said.

"We can sell it to the black market." Jessie said.

"Paras is everywhere in Kanto. I'm pretty sure they would never buy it." James told her.

"No I meant at Orre Region, Galar Region, or other where Paras is not found." Jessie said sheepishly.

Pikachu and Paras glared at each other. Pikachu let out a small spark from it's cheek and Paras sharpened it's pinsir with small pebbles nearby. Pikachu shadow boxed and Paras tapped the ground with it's pinsir.

"Let the battle begin!" Misty called out.

"Pikachu, use Thundersh...." Ash ordered, but stopped soon.
