Meanwhile, inside Mt. Snowy, Ghetsis and Clyde were looking for Kyurem.
“Don’t you need at least a Steel-Type Pokemon to fight Kyurem with?” Asked Clyde.
“When I was still a Gym Leader,” Ghetsis explained. “I loved to drive Trainers bonkers with my Trump card: Empoleon! I caught him when he was still a Prinplup back at Sinnoh’s Lake Acuity. He was stubborn, but I was able to befriend him by throwing a Basculin at him. While old man Pryce would use Jynx, Dewgong, and Piloswine, I use Dewgong, Cryogonal, and Empoleon! With resistances to 10 different Types and an immunity to Poison, Empoleon’s a powerful Pokemon.” The two then approached yellow tape in front of a cave that said ‘DO NOT CROSS’. Ghetsis simply pushed the tape aside and entered the cave, where they encountered Kyurem.
“Roar!” Replied the Boundary Pokemon, while Clyde was a bit nervous.
“Don’t be such a Wimpod!” Said Ghetsis. “It’s no different than Salamence. Go, Empoleon!” Empoleon was sent out. Kyurem attacked using Ice Beam, but the Emperor Pokemon took little damage.
“Empoleon!” Said Ghetsis. “Use Flash Cannon!” Empoleon gathered all of his light energy and released it at once, dealing great damage to Kyurem. The Dragon Pokemon countered that with Freeze-Dry, but luckily, Empoleon dodged the attack.
“Now to throw the Dusk Ball!” Ghetsis threw the Ball at Kyurem, and after a few seconds of wobbling, the Poke Ball clicked. Kyurem has successfully been caught.
“Next stop, Stow-on-Side!” Declared Ghetsis. “That’s where they keep the DNA Splicers.” Ghetsis swapped Empoleon for Fearow and flew out of the cave with Clyde on board.

The next morning after breakfast, Joe set off on Talonflame to Orange City. He then returned Talonflame to her Poke Ball to swap her with Perrserker, Gogoat, and Charmeleon, and he entered the City’s Gym. Inside was Rebecca, who specializes in Rock-Type Pokemon.
“Hi, there!” She greeted. “My name’s Rebecca, and not only am I a Rock-Type Gym Leader, but I’m also a curator at Orange City’s museum, and as you can see, I love jewelry.” She gestured to her earrings and necklace. “My Pokemon, I believe, reflect my personality. Go, Gigalith!” Gigalith was sent out.
“I choose you!” Said Joe. “Gogoat!” Gogoat was sent out.
“Gogoat!” Said Joe. “Use Seed Bomb!” Gogoat slammed a barrage of hard-shelled seeds on Gigalith, leaving the Compressed Pokémon with half her HP.
“Gigalith!” Said Rebecca. “Use Stone Edge!” Gigalith tried to stab Gogoat with sharpened stones, but the attack missed and punctured a wall in the Gym, instead.
“Sorry about that.” Said Joe.
“That’s okay.” Replied Rebecca. “I can always get a visit from Conkeldurr Construction Co. after the battle. This isn’t the first time it happened.”
“I guess it’s my turn now!” Said Joe. “Gogoat, use Leaf Blade!” Gogoat slashed at Gigalith with a sharp leaf, and the Compressed Pokemon fainted.
“That was great!” Said Rebecca, returning Gigalith to her Poke Ball. “Go, Carbink!” Carbink was sent out.
“You did a great job, Gogoat!” Said Joe, returning the Mount Pokemon to his Poke Ball. “Go, Perrserker!” Perrserker was sent out.
“Perrserker!” Said Joe. “Use Iron Head!” Perrserker slammed into Carbink with his steel-hard head, and the Jewel Pokemon fainted.
“Dang!” Said Rebecca, returning Carbink to its Poke Ball. “I should’ve seen that coming. Luckily, my next Pokemon has an item that prevents it from fainting from a single attack. Go, Drednaw!” Drednaw was sent out, and she had a Focus Sash tied to the crest on her forehead.
“That was amazing, Perrserker!” Said Joe, returning the Viking Pokemon to his Poke Ball. “Go, Gogoat!” Gogoat was sent out.
“Drednaw!” Said Rebecca. “Use Ice Fang!” Drednaw bit at Gogoat with icy jaws, leaving the Mount Pokemon with 65% of his HP.
“Gogoat!” Said Joe. “Use Horn Leech!” Gogoat drained Drednaw’s energy with his horns, which not only left the Bite Pokemon with just one Hit Point left, but also restored HP to the Mount Pokemon.
“Drednaw!” Said Rebecca. “Use Counter!” Drednaw attacked Gogoat with all her might, leaving the Mount Pokemon with half his HP.
“Finish her off with Razor Leaf!” Gogoat shot sharp leaves at Drednaw, and the Bite Pokemon fainted.
“It seems the rumors of you beating Rainbow Rocket have been proven true.” Said Rebecca, returning Drednaw to her Poke Ball. “Here, take this Mineral Badge.” She handed Joe a brown badge with red and blue sparkles on it.
“Pokemon up to Level 40 will obey you, even those you receive from trades.” She explained. “You also receive this.” She gave Joe TM39, which contained Rock Tomb.
“TM39 contains Rock Tomb.” Rebecca explained. “As well as dealing damage, this attack also lowers the opponent’s Speed. Now go and beat the other Gym Leaders!” Joe returned Gogoat to his Poke Ball and exited the Gym.
