The next morning, Ping Gingko had arrived in Johto’s Battle Frontier, which also had an airport.
“We have arrived in Johto.” Said the announcer. “Please do not exit the plane unless it has come to a complete stop. Thanks for flying with us! We hope to see you again!” Ping ran out of the plane and hurried over to Route 40.
“I may have not brought a Flying-Type Pokemon with me,” Ping said to himself. “But at least I brought a Water-Type Pokemon! Go, Seaking!” Seaking was sent out.
“Seaking, use Surf!” Commanded Ping, and the Goldfish Pokemon jumped into the water so Ping could ride on her. “Great! It will take about an hour to get to Cianwood City, so let’s just relax for now.” Seaking started swimming over to Cianwood with Ping on his back, but she was having a hard time carrying her human.
—--------------------------------------------------
A few hours later, Louise has finally arrived at Route 48. New Pokemon that she caught included Buizel and Shellder. Since her Buizel and Shellder are too small to carry a human, Louise decided to travel to Cianwood City by boat and travel the rest of the way on Honda, who was now a Revavroom. She entered the Safari Zone Gate, and an unfamiliar voice called her name.
“Louise!” Said the voice. “Louise, is that you?”
“Um, yes.” Louise said with a scared tone. “Who are you? My parents say to never talk to strangers unless they’re Pokemon Trainers.”
“I am Professor Gingko from Pengei.” Greeted the man. “I have traveled all this way to find you. Apparently, you’re the only one who can save us. The Equalites have taken over Pinghei and have forced everyone to use only Electric, Dark, and Poison-Type Pokemon!”
“But why me?” Asked Louise.
“Only Hao knows.” Replied Ping. “And I need to train you to defeat the Equalites and restore peace to Pignhei! Besides, the other Gym Leaders fled except for Yuza and Terra.”
“But my Pokemon aren’t ready yet!” Said Louise. “Only three of them are fully evolved now. Also, I was gonna catch a Sliggoo in the Safari Zone.”
“Okay, okay.” Said Ping. “But as soon as you catch one, leave the Safari Zone and meet me at the Fighting Dojo in Saffron City.”
“But my parents told me to only stay in Johto.” Said Louise.
“We’ll speak to them before we leave.” Said Ping. “Where do you live?”
—-----------------------------------------------------
After catching a Sliggoo, Louise and Ping went to Cherrygrove City to tell Yvette and Clive about the news. As one would expect, they were both very concerned.
“Why does Louise have to go?” Asked Yvette. “What if something bad happens to her?”
“Don’t worry, madam.” Said Ping. “I’ll text you every hour so you won’t get too worked up.”
“Both of us?” Asked Clive.
“Yes.” Answered Ping. “Please give me your cell phones so we can exchange phone numbers.” Clive and Yvette reluctantly gave their Poryphones to Ping, and he typed his phone numbers into them.
“There!” Exclaimed Ping. “The next text message you receive will be from me. Sorry, but we have to get going. Who knows when Gong Shen will find out about Louise!”
“Okay.” Said Yvette. “Please keep our daughter safe.”
“I will!” Said Ping. “I was good at babysitting Pokemon when I was Louise’s age. Come on, Louise. We’ll take the train in Goldenrod City.”
—--------------------------------------------------
Back in Pinghei, Gong Shen was ruling over Pinghei with an iron fist, even if it’s only been a day. With the help of the Equalites, he has taken over the city and forced everyone to use Poison, Electric, and Dark-Type Pokemon. Anyone who didn’t hand over their Pokemon to Gong Shen or opposed to the new rules would get arrested, or worse, witness their Pokemon get eaten or taxidermized. Luckily for the Gym Leaders, they fled the Region while Yuza and Terra fought off as many Equalites as they could. During this time, Gong Shen invaded the Pagoda of Indulgence and threatened to kidnap Hao.
“You must be Gong Shen.” Said the Champion. “You made the wrong move by fighting the strongest Trainer in Pinghei.”
“Really, grandpa?” Asked Gong Shen. “Show me what you got.”
“Very well.” Said Hao. “Go, Pelipper!” Pelipper was sent out, though Gong Shen just laughed.
“Really, man?” He laughed. “Today will not be your day. Go, Vikavolt!” Vikavolt was sent out.
“Pelipper!” Said Hao. “Use Surf!” Pelipper summoned a tidal wave that crashed into Vikavolt, leaving the Stage Beetle Pokemon with half his HP.
“Vikavolt!” Said Gong Shen. “Use Thunderbolt!” Vikavolt summoned a lightning bolt that struck Pelipper, and the Water Bird Pokemon fainted.
“You did your best, Pelipper.” Said Hao, returning the Water Bird Pokemon to his Poke Ball. “Go, Talonflame!” Talonflame was sent out.
“Talonflame!” Said Hao. “Use Flare Blitz!” Talonflame lit himself on fire and crashed into Vikavolt, and the Stag Beetle Pokemon fainted. Talonflame also took damage from the recoil.
“Good thing my next Pokemon is the Bully of the Sea!” Said Gong Shen, returning Vikavolt to his Poke Ball. “Go, Sharpedo!” Sharpedo was sent out.
“That was excellent, Talonflame!” Said Hao, returning the Scorching Pokemon to his Poke Ball. “Go, Tropius!” Tropius was sent out, but Gong Shen laughed again.
“That’s like pitting an Arrokuda against a Cramorant!” He remarked. “Sharpedo, use Ice Fang!” Sharpedo bit Tropius with her freezing fangs, and the Fruit Pokemon fainted.
“This is not gonna end well.” Hao remarked.
