After I caught all those pokemon I decided it was time to find a place to rest and to train my pokemon. After walking around for awhile I found a crystal clear lake un disturbed by the urbanization that happened around it. Letting out all of my pokemon I realized that having this many on me could be a problem and I don't really have a place where I can keep them. The number of pokemon I own now numbers 19, and Professor Oak only handles those that come from Pallet Town.
After realizing that I won't be able to solve this problem for awhile, I just decided to fish and see what kind of pokemon I could find while telling all my pokemon what to train in. After a few minutes I decide that it's time for lunch so I call my pokemon to where I set up the fire and start giving them food, well those that can eat and then I check the status of those I wish to train, besides Aurum, Radish, and Aqua.

============================================
These are the three I want to concentrate on because I bought one from the shop, and have no idea about the implications that sends, also because I want to see how Ziggy stacks up compared to Pooch who has a unique ability that I've never seen before. And when I asked the system what it's description was it came up with this.
============================================
Fanged Jaw
Gives 'Bite' attacks a 30% power boost.
And makes them part Bone-type
============================================
It's basically a bite version of the ability tough claws. PLus it has a weird type, I wonder do Cubone have this same type.
Now that everyone has eaten I allow them to sleep to recover fatigue better and go back to fishing. After a little while I finally get a bite on my hook and when I pull it up, it's a Purple Magikarp with red bits where it's supposed be yellow. I throw my pokeball at it and catch it and then bring up its stats.

============================================
This was a weird find to say the least as Gyarados is in the Dragon egg group, but I've never heard of it gaining the dragon typing no matter what it was bred with. I don't know whether I should be happy about gaining a potentially powerful member to my team, or scared of what might happen if it turns on me. Raging Gyarados are known to destroy whole cities with their powerful attacks. I now had an excuse to buy the Basic Dragon Guide for 350 SP and the Magikarp Guide for 2,000 SP spending 2,350 SP.
Nothing worthwhile happened after that so me and my now small force of pokemon headed for Viridian City. It took a few hours to get to Viridian and when I got there I was greeted by the fact that the Pokemon Center was destroyed. So more than a little pissed off I decided to go find an inn to say in, instead of camping out again. Having a quick shower than going to bed was all I did that night.
In the morning I went straight to Viridian Forest as I didn't really need to stay in Viridian City with how it was. After going a little while in I caught several more pokemon these are Pikachu, Spoink, Numel, Budew, Carnivine, Kricketot, Seedot, and Shroomish. I named them Lucky, Bouncy, Volcano, Elegance, Flytrap, Musician, Masked, and Mario. I had even more of an excuse to buy the Basic Fire Guide, Basic Ground Guide, and Basic Psychic Guide spending 600 SP.
After walking some more I found some weird people arguing. One was a girl with short orange hair with a bit tied up and off to the side. She wore a light-yellow coloured shirt and blue jean-shorts and red shoes. The other weird person was a boy, with short black hair that is covered by a red and white hat. He wore a dark blue shirt with a blue jacket over it, his pants where the same colour as the girls but he wore black shoes.
It seemed that they were arguing over a Caterpie, I couldn't really tell with how far away I was from them. I thought of avoiding them but that way is the only way I can tell that lets me see more of nature and not just a boring dirt path. After getting close enough to them it seemed that a Pikachu managed to sense me, this surprised me as I passively have Stealth on at all times. So I just decided to introduce myself and then go right passed them.
Grey: Hello my name is Grey, I'm just passing on through.
They both looked at me and the girl seemed to want to ask a question.
Girl: How did you sneak up on us?
Grey: I didn't. I was walking normally and that Pikachu sensed my presence.
I said that as I pointed to the Pikachu.
Boy: Hey are you a Pokemon Trainer?
This question caught me off guard because everyone knows that Pokemon Trainers can only have a maximum of six pokemon on them at all times. So responded with my actual trainer class.
Grey: No I am not a Pokemon Trainer. I am a Battle Trainer.
Girl/Boy: Battle Trainer??
It seemed that a battle trainer isn't a widely known term.
Grey: Yes a Battle Trainer, it means that I fight along side my pokemon and train with them. It also means that I have to pay for pokemon centers.
After telling them that they both wore a very shocked face. It was difficult to hold in my laughter and keep a straight face, but I somehow managed to do just that.
Grey: Anyways enough about me, how about you two introduce yourselves?
At my question they seemed to have realized that they still haven't introduced themselves yet.
Boy: I'm Ash, Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town.
Girl: My name is Misty from Cerulean.
It seemed that one of them was one of the people that Pr. Oak told me to help if I could. We talked for a little bit more and I found out that Misty doesn't like Bug-type pokemon so I had Bug Thing (Wurmple) Climb up her leg, and what happened next was really funny, that time I couldn't hold in my laughter any more and nearly pissed myself from laughing. She wasn't very happy with me afterwards. We talked until Ash 'fought' a Pidgeotto and caught it. At that point some weird music started to play.
