The Perfect Trio

Disclaimer: I do not own Pokémon rights belong to Game freak

Note: I'm sorry for late update I got a little sick and went on a vacation to a really cool place so this consists of Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur's capture (I decided to fix some problems with my stories).

"This storm is getting worse we need to find shelter," Brock said as the storm started to pour down rain.

"Yeah let's find a cave or some shelter," Misty said as they ran.

"Huh… guys hold on look is that a Charmander," Ash said as he spotted the small Pokémon sitting on a stump.

"Yeah but if it stays out here in the storm it's tail fire will go out and it'll die," Brock said as they ran to the Pokémon.

"Come on let's get him to a Pokémon center and fast," Ash said as he picked up Charmander and ran to the Pokémon center.

"How much farther is it Brock," Misty asked worriedly.

"It just up ahead," Brock said as the center came into view.

"Alright let's go," Ash said running even faster into the center, "Nurse Joy this Charmander needs help," Ash said as he placed Charmander on the counter.

"Oh my I'll get to work on healing him right away," Nurse Joy said as she took Charmander to emergency care.

"I wonder who left that poor Charmander out in the rain," Ash said as a trainer walked up to him.

"Hey my names Damian; that's a cool looking Pikachu do you to trade him for one of my Pokémon," Damian said to Ash.

"No I don't want to trade my Pokémon," Ash said, as Damian looked shocked.

"What are you serious why it's just a Pokémon," Damian said as Ash glared at him.

"To me my Pokémon are apart of my family so I won't trade you for my family," Ash said.

"It's just a Pokémon a slave for humans," Damian said as Ash punched him in the face, "What the HECK man that was not cool," Damian said as Ash held him by his collar.

"HERE'S WHAT'S NOT COOL CALLING A POKÉMON YOUR SLAVE THAT IS DISGUSTING DON'T YOU EVER SAY THAT AGAIN OR ELSE," Ash yelled as Pikachu's cheeks started to spark.

"Let go of me," Damian said as Ash threw him on the ground and walked away, "Besides that dumb Charmander is useless," Damian said smugly as Ash turned back around.

"That was YOUR Charmander," Ash said angrily as he balled his hand into a fist.

"Yeah so what," Damian said as Ash punched his face again causing his nose to bleed and kicked him in his crotch hard and Misty hit Damian's crotch with her mallet as Brock threw up in a trash can as he saw what they did to him.

"I'll be reporting you to Professor Oak," Ash said as Damian was curled up in fetal position.

"What happened here," Nurse Joy asked seeing Damian in fetal position.

"He left his Charmander in the rain to die and insulted Pokémon so I just taught him a lesson," Ash said calmly as Nurse Joy looked saddened.

"Well Charmander is okay and should stay here overnight," Nurse Joy said as Ash nodded and called the Professor and told him everything about Damian.

"Well thank you for calling me and telling me about this I'll have Officer Jenny get him and I'll delete his Trainer's License immediately," the Professor said as he hung up.

"Ash are you okay I've never seen you act like that," Misty asked.

"Yeah I just hate it when people abuse their Pokémon," Ash said sadly.

"Well next time give me a heads up so I don't have to witness that," Brock said as Ash and Misty laughed and went sleep in their rooms.

"Nurse Joy how's Charmander," Ash asked her.

"He's fully healed but upset that Damian tried to abandon him," Nurse Joy said.

"Can I talk with him please," Ash asked.

"Sure I hope he'll be okay," Nurse Joy said as Ash walked into Charmander's room.

"Hey Charmander are you okay," Ash asked.

"My wounds were healed but Damian left me to die," Charmander said sadly.

"Yeah but I got him good so he'll never hurt Pokémon like that ever again," Ash said as Charmander looked up.

"Really he's not going to hurt me anymore," Charmander said looking hopeful.

"Yeah he lost his Trainers License and got beat up," Ash said smiling at the last part.

"Thank you but I don't want to be lonely," Charmander said as Ash pulled out a Pokéball.

"You can come with me if you want I don't like people who abuse their Pokémon," Ash said.

"Okay I really want to meet new friends," Charmander said as he tapped the Pokéball and it instantly dinged.

"Well now I've got a new friend," Ash said as walked out of the room.

"Ash to get to where were headed we've got to go through this forest," Brock said as they moved on.

"This forest is pretty thick which way to Vermilion City," Ash asked as Brock looked at the map.

"It should be straight ahead," Brock said as they approached a bridge beside a waterfall.

"I guess we have to cross this bridge huh," Ash said.

"Yeah but it doesn't look very safe," Misty said seeing how old the bridge looked.

"Well we'll go one at a time," Ash said as he slowly walked across the bridge.

"Ash get off that thing," Misty said hearing the wood moan and groan.

"Misty I'm fin- AHHHHH," Ash said as the bridge collapsed and Ash fell with Pikachu into the water below.

"Misty let's meet them down their alright," Brock said as they ran to the bottom of the waterfall.

"Ouch that hurt," Ash said rubbing his arm after swimming onto land.

"Next time warn me about a surprise bath," Pikachu said as he shook himself dry.

"Hope Brock and Misty are okay," Ash said worriedly as a girl appeared.

"Sorry about the bridge," the girl said.

"Wait you rigged it, why did you do that," Ash asked her a little bit angry that he almost got hurt.

"I made that trap to keep poachers away from the Hidden Village a place where sick, injured, and abandoned Pokémon can find shelter and food," the girl said.

"Okay so who are you anyway," Ash asked her.

"I'm Melanie and did you mention you had other friends here too," Melanie asked.

"Yeah why do you ask," Ash said getting worried.

"I have other traps and a abandoned Bulbasaur that will attack anyone who tries to catch one the Pokémon here so we need to find them fast," Melanie said.

"Alright let's go," Ash said as Melanie held her arm out.

"First promise me you won't catch any Pokémon here got it," Melanie said.

"All right I won't catch any Pokémon here I promise," Ash said as Melanie put her arms down.

"Alright let's go," Melanie said as they ran off.

(Meanwhile with Brock and Misty)

"I can't believe were stuck in this net," Misty said as she squirmed.

"Quit squirming it's not helping the situation," Brock said as he got stepped on.

"Alright fine I wonder if Ash is alright," Misty said.

"I'm sure he's fine he's Ash that fall won't stop him," Brock said as he reassured her.

"I'm just concerned he could've been hurt," Misty said.

"Hey guys we found you finally," Ash said after hearing their voices.

"ASH," Brock and Misty yelled after seeing him in good health.

"Yeah it's good to see you too," Ash said as Melanie came panting along.

"Hey Ash whose that with you," Misty asked him.

"This Melanie she's in charge of the Hidden Village also she set traps to keep poachers away and protects the Pokémon here so we can't catch the Pokémon here," Ash said as Melanie let them down.

"Guys nights coming we need to find a place to sleep for the night," Brock said as the sun set.

"Come with me I have some room at my place," Melanie said.

"Thanks Melanie," Ash said.

"It's no problem it's the least I could do," Melanie said as they went to her place in the center of Hidden Village.

"Morning Brock; morning Misty," Ash said as he woke up.

"Hey Ash you're finally awake," Misty said.

"You almost missed breakfast," Brock said as he handed Ash some food.

"Thanks Brock where's Melanie," Ash asked as he ate.

"She went to go help some of the Pokémon outside," Brock said.

"I'm going to go and check on her in case Team Stupid followed us," Ash said as Brock and Misty laughed.

"Alright I'm going with you I want to see if she can tell me anything that can help me with becoming a Pokémon Breeder," Brock said as they left to help Melanie.

"Hey Ash; hey Brock," Melanie said.

"Hey Melanie do you need any help," Ash asked as a Bulbasaur appeared in front of Melanie and sniffed Ash then bowed to him.

"Hey why's Bulbasaur bowing," Brock said but when he approached Bulbasaur he got hit with Vine Whip.

"Hey Bulbasaur that's not nice," Melanie said as Bulbasaur looked sad.

"It's all right Melanie he just doesn't trust me but he does seem to like Ash," Brock said as Ash looked at Bulbasaur.

"Why did you attack Brock and bow to me," Ash asked as Bulbasaur looked up at him.

"I will only allow you and Melanie to touch me Son of Arceus," Bulbasaur said as Ash's face paled.

"How did you know who my dad is I never said anything about it," Ash asked in whisper so only Bulbasaur could hear him.

"I could sense that you were Lord Arceus's Son it's a natural instinct all Pokémon have to be able to sense the power of Arceus," Bulbasaur said as Ash nodded.

"Well Ash why did Bulbasaur hit Brock," Melanie asked getting Ash's attention.

"Brock was right it's a trust thing he trusts you and me to touch him anyone else is a different story," Ash said as Melanie smiled.

"At least he's starting to trust again," Melanie said.

"Does he not trust people," Ash asked.

"He was abandoned by his old trainer and I helped him and he became the guardian of Hidden Village," Melanie said, "But I think it's time for him to leave and travel so he can grow more sociable," Melanie said.

"Whoa that's pretty rough, but maybe Bulbasaur could come with me and I'll make sure he is given great care," Ash said rubbing Bulbasaur's head.

"Thanks Ash just keep Bulbasaur safe he means a lot to me," Melanie said.

"I will Melanie I promise," Ash said turning to Bulbasaur, "So Bulbasaur do you want to join my team," Ash asked as Bulbasaur nodded, "Great now here's your Pokéball," Ash said pulling out a Pokéball for Bulbasaur and Bulbasaur tapped the Pokéball and was sucked inside as it dinged instantly, "Cool now I've got a Bulbasaur," Ash said as he held Bulbasaur's Pokéball.

"Ash it's almost time to go," Brock said packing their things.

"Well it was nice too meet you Melanie," Ash said as he left with Brock and Misty, "So now were getting close to Vermilion City," Ash said as they left the forest.

"Yep it's just a couple more miles," Brock said.

"Cool why don't we take a break I want to do some training before challenging the Vermilion City Gym," Ash said rubbing Pikachu's ears.

"Why not I can make lunch while you train," Brock said.

"I think I'll relax for a little while," Misty said releasing her Pokémon into a lake and started swimming.

"I'll be back in a little bit," Ash said heading into a clearing, "This looks like a pretty good spot to train," Ash said as he released his Pokémon, "Guys before the next Gym battle I want to train so we can be prepared," Ash said as the Pokémon nodded.

"Pikachu, Meowth, and Metapod will work on speed, Pidgeotto will work on aerial maneuvers, and Bulbasaur and Charmander you two will work on endurance," Ash said smiling as Metapod glowed, "Yes Metapod your evolving," Ash said excitedly as the glow died down revealing a Butterfree.

"Yay I evolved," Butterfree said.

"Great now you've got Physic typing," Ash said still excited.

"Water Gun," an Squirtle said as multiple Squirtle who started squirting Ash and everyone else.

"Whoa I did not ask for a surprise bath," Meowth said avoiding the Water Guns.

"HA we got you," the Squirtle said high fiving his four friends.

"That was fun," Ash said laughing getting Squirtle's attention and confusing his Pokémon.

"Uh they blasted us with water why are you laughing," Bulbasaur asked, "It's no fun if your always serious you have to loosen up sometimes," Ash said as Squirtle walked over.

"You're the first person who hasn't tried to battle us after that, why," Squirtle asked.

"Because you were just having fun you shouldn't be attacked for having fun," Ash said catching Squirtle off guard.

"You can understand me," Squirtle said.

"Yep I can understand Pokémon as clear as a whistle," Ash said.

"Okay then I challenge you," Squirtle said smirking.

"Okay I accept, Meowth ready," Ash said as Meowth got into battle stance.

"I'm ready," Meowth said.

"Good let's start with Quick Claw," Ash said as Meowth rushed at Squirtle and scratched him.

"Now you're going to pay," Squirtle said shooting a Water Gun hitting Meowth from behind.

"Meowth use Quick Attack then use Slash," Ash said as Meowth tackled Squirtle then slashed him.

"Ouch time to end this," Squirtle said using Skull Bash.

"Meowth use Double Team," Ash said as Meowth moved quickly creating multiple copies of himself.

"Huh where are you," Squirtle said annoyed.

"Meowth use Slash," Ash, said as Meowth hit Squirtle knocking him unconscious.

"You beat the Boss," an Squirtle said.

"Whoa the Boss lost bummer," another Squirtle said.

"Go Pokéball," Ash said tossing a Pokéball at Squirtle and the capture was completed after two dings, "Whoa I got an Squirtle this is awesome," Ash said as Squirtle's Pokéball teleported to his mom's ranch.

"Squirtle Squad I see your leaders been caught," Officer Jenny said.

"Uh Officer Jenny what's up," Ash asked.

"I was assigned to capture the Squirtle Squad and you caught their leader," Officer Jenny said.

"Why do you have to capture them their just playing around," Ash said.

"Yeah but Trainer's keep thinking their getting attacked," Officer Jenny said.

"Well can't you use them for a fire department or something," Ash suggested.

"That's a good idea what do ya say Squirtle's," Officer Jenny asked.

"I can do that," an Squirtle said.

"Alright at least were doing something," another Squirtle said.

"They said yes," Ash said, as Officer Jenny looked confused.

"Really that's great go Police Balls," Officer Jenny tossing four Police Balls catching the Squirtle Squad.

"Well see ya," Ash said returning his Pokémon and leaving the clearing.
